Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Skechers and Coolness in Sports

[05:23 – 12:00]

• Joel Embiid's Skechers Debut:
  The show jumps into the NBA's new Skechers partnership, sparked by Joel Embiid's debut of his signature Skechers shoe. There's debate on whether Skechers—long seen as an “elder” or “dad” shoe in the U.S.—can become a cool, trendy brand among younger athletes and fans.

• Generational Influence & Celebrity Endorsements:
  The hosts discuss how generational icons (like the Kardashians making Champion gear cool again) could sway perceptions:

  • "Can anyone make it cool again? I’m not denying that's a comfortable shoe... but here in the USA it has a stigma... It'd take a younger generation to just say, ‘now we own it,’ and it becomes cool again." — Covino [05:32]
  • Rich suggests it would take a Shohei Ohtani-level megastar to shift the narrative as Ohtani did with New Balance [07:58].
  • Steph Curry and Under Armour are cited as a past success story, but Curry is now seen as a “veteran champion,” less likely to influence youth culture.

• Listener & Host Feedback:
  Skechers remains popular for affordability and comfort (nurses wear them, widespread international appeal), but the hosts note, “It’s a matter of that right person changing the image. I don’t know if Embiid’s the guy…” — Covino [11:06].

2. NFL Week 13 Insights & Playoff Scenarios

[12:01 – 16:30 & 47:54 – 50:32]

• AFC South and Wild Card Races:
  C&R discuss the tight race between the Colts, Jaguars, and Texans.

  • "Who's the team that emerges from that division?" — Rich [12:22]
  • Danny G is high on the Texans' defense but also mentions the Giants potentially making a wild card push [12:51].

• NFC East Battle:
  The Cowboys' trajectory is compared favorably to the Eagles:

  • “Wouldn't you say they're more on a higher trajectory than the Eagles? Cowboys have been trending upward…” — Covino [13:44]
  • DB highlights multiple postseason scenarios hinging on Monday Night Football's outcomes [14:46], noting the wild card and division are both in play.

• Playoff Machine Homework:
  Rich promotes ESPN’s NFL Playoff Machine, encouraging listeners to simulate the rest of the season and see how their predictions compare, sparking a fun group comparison among the hosts [48:12 – 50:32].

3. NFL Oddities & Officiating Discussion

[16:30 – 18:18]

• Bizarre Calls:
  The hosts react to a controversial extra point in the Texans game (missed by the naked eye, but called good), leading to a playful solution—installing "laser lights" to define the goalposts:
  • “Why not have lasers, like laser lights, shooting through where—ok, if you kicked it that high...you would see it pass the laser.” — DB [17:15]

4. Clippers Announcers' On-Air Argument: Ego & Ambush

[18:47 – 24:43 & 32:30 – 33:32]

• The Background:
  The hosts dissect a real, awkward on-air spat between Clippers announcers Brian Seaman and Jim Jackson over a trivia question that caught Seaman off-guard:

  • "[He] ambushed me with that trivia question." — Brian Seaman, via show playback [19:13]
  • The argument derailed game commentary for much of the third quarter.

• Dynamics of On-Air Duos:
  The debate opens up greater discussion on ego and “ambush” moments in sports broadcasting. Covino and Rich break down how trivia/fun facts can undermine partnerships if presented as “gotchas.”

  • “It comes across as you’re showing up that person...that’s why duos and trios never really work in broadcasting, because someone’s toes are getting stepped on, someone’s ego’s bruised.” — Covino [22:56]
  • “Giving someone a trivia question is way different than throwing someone a question that if they don’t know the answer, they look exposed. Way different...” — Rich [23:37]
  • The hosts share personal anecdotes about their own on-air teasing and how close friendships make a huge difference.

• Internet Reaction:
  Danny G points out that fans online noticed the disconnect—while a big play happened on-court, the announcers were still bickering [21:16].

5. Sports Trivia Game: Last One Standing

[41:23 – 47:46]

• Interactive Segment:
  The show pivots to their fan-favorite “Last One Standing” sports trivia, where contestants battle for prizes under pressure.

• Sample Categories:

  • NFL teams with the most two-point conversions (this year)
  • NBA players with most career turnovers (with LeBron at #1, Westbrook #2, and others like Kobe and Jason Kidd mentioned)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On Changing Skechers’ Image:
  “It takes a younger generation to just say, now that’s—that we own it and it becomes cool again.” — Covino [06:01]
• On Athlete Endorsements Shifting Trends:
  “If Shohei Ohtani…If Shohei's like, ‘I got these new Skecher cleats’…Would every young someone of that caliber? Yes.” — Rich & Covino [08:12]
• On Ego in Broadcasting:
  “That’s what happens when you have two separate egos on one broadcast.” — Covino [20:53] “There's a difference between trivia and a fun fact and like a gotcha presentation.” — Covino [32:30]

Podcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. Sesame street helped raise all of us. All of us except for Rich. Rich is still growing up.

[Rich]

Love Sesame Street.

[Covino]

Now it's our turn. Donate this holiday [e-mail] because the world needs sesame and Sesame needs you. Covino and Rich. Everything at Covino and Rich. The chat is popping. Shout out to Crane and Esteban and Colin in Canada West. From Idaho, Danny Riley, everybody chiming in live at covino and rich, FSR and YouTube. We're streaming live.

[Danny G]

So watch.

[Covino]

We hear Covino and Rich FSR and we be rocking out. Let's go. Action packed hour, last one standing. We're going to play some games, giving away surprises. So excited.

[Rich]

I'm going to do the Dougie like Brock Purdy and then I'm going to the Urkel dance like Cam Bynum. I'm pumped.

[Covino]

Maybe you shouldn't. And wrapping up things that made you go. If there's any final thoughts or phone calls. 87799 on Fox. Get to us now. I don't know if you heard what I said, but a fight was announced and it's better than Jake Paul. Aj. There's more to life than spectacle nonsense, right? So Teofimo Lopez fighting Shakur Stevenson.

[Rich]

No thanks.

[Covino]

That's a battle. January 31st, a WBO super lightweight bout. Shakur's defense will Teofimo be able to penetrate when again he's fought arguably better fighters. He beat Lomachenko. So Teofimo Shakur, that's a battle. January 31st, so the new year starting off with a bang. And. And we're closing out with Jake, Paul and AJ in December. So some good fights. Made me go wbo. More like bo. Yeah.

[Rich]

That stinks. Spot Danny G. Those things.

[Covino]

Wicked And Rich came in here cheering about it and that that movie was so mediocre. It's crazy.

[Rich]

I know. It's terrible. Made a quarter billion dollars so far.

[Covino]

Doesn't matter. Susan Boyle sold millions of CDs. That doesn't mean it's good. It was just. Okay.

[Rich]

So Shakur Stevenson and TFIMO Lopez are both guys that haven't done anything exciting in a while. TFIMO stunk it up. The most boring fight you're ever going to see. The one outside in New York City.

[Covino]

Right. He's the only guy that fought good that night. So again, I like him personal. And any thoughts, just give us a call. 877-99-FOX. Who do we got?

[Danny G]

Danny G. Let's start with Tripp in Vegas.

[Covino]

Trip, why are you tripping?

[Rich]

Yo, what up, bud?

[Covino]

What's up, gentlemen? Happy holidays.

[Rich]

It's good to have you all back.

[Covino]

At your regular time. I have two things.

[Rich]

One for Embiid.

[Covino]

He's perfect for sketchers because if you're not going to play, they're comfortable shoes. That's a good one.

[Rich]

Comfortable for lounging.

[Covino]

Tripp, I posed the question a few minutes ago. People just joined us that Joel Embiid debuted his new Skecher shoe. I said, can anyone make it cool again? Because I'm not denying that's a comfortable shoe. And at a super popular worldwide. But here in the usa, it has a stigma of like a, like an elder shoe, maybe. I don't know. And there's a lot of feedback on our chat. They were saying they'll never get past that stigma. So it takes a younger generation to just say, now that's that we own it and it becomes cool again.

[Rich]

All right, then, then, then let's go through this, right? Let's, let's keep it real. Let's think it through instead of just dismissing it. Skechers, what I consider a nerdy shoe.

[Covino]

That somehow Estee Bond says a boomer.

[Rich]

Shoe in his eyes. Listen, dude, I rocked him. I'm not a sneaker head by any means.

[Covino]

You're just a balloon head, but good one.

[Rich]

I don't know any grown man.

[Covino]

Someone.

[Rich]

Actually laughing at that or that's got to be a fake laugh.

[Covino]

Track your narrative. That's why I can't say what I want to say.

[Rich]

Right? So my point is Skechers, which has a reputation that's hard to get. It's hard to like really make it something trendy and cool. Right? Like you think like your uncle might wear Skechers or your little nephew might wear sketches.

[Covino]

I wore them in the early 2000s.

[Rich]

Yeah, it's 25 years ago.

[Covino]

I know.

[Rich]

Go through all four major sports, dude.

[Covino]

People are buying them. They're the only shoe brand or one of the only shoe brands with Their own, you know, their own stores at the mall, just out and about. There's a sketcher store right here on Ventura. Dude, it's a warehouse. You should be in Oz Gifts. A full on warehouse.

[Rich]

I don't get it.

[Covino]

So people are buying them titties, love them.

[Rich]

You tell me knucklehead.

[Covino]

And I don't want.

[Rich]

I'd rather say something else other than knucklehead. You tell me what major league baseball player, what NFL star, what NBA star? Like, who do you think right now is so cool? A lot of the Michael Jordan of their time, The Tom Brady someone that you're like, oh, they're just so damn cool that a younger generation would be like, well, they're wearing it. Sort of like how the Jenners have makeup that's billions of dollars. Because the Jenners and the Kardashians wear makeup and skims and all this stuff. And millions and millions of people buy it immediately.

[Covino]

Well, you, you bring them up. They made Champion cool again. Champion. You were buying at Dick's sporting goods. No. 1 was rocking Champion for 20 years.

[Rich]

And then the Kardashians start wearing Champion.

[Covino]

I became a trend again.

[Rich]

But then I didn't answer. This is it. If Shohei Ohtani. Yes, Shohei, he made New Balance cool. But if Shohei instead of New Balance, Shohei Ohtani, If Shohei's like, I got these new Skecher cleats.

[Covino]

Yes. Would every young someone of that caliber? Yes, because. And I'll go international star helps too. But again, internationally, Skechers does well. And I'll put them in the same category. New Balance. Always known for their comfort and quality of shoes. Skechers good quality shooters, no question.

[Danny G]

Yeah, I think of dad shoes when you say New Balance. But how about Steph Curry? People were rocking Under Armour because of him. He's a free agent now, by the way, so maybe Skechers should talk with him.

[Rich]

But I look at Steph as a star, but he's not the young cool guy anymore. He's like the veteran champion.

[Danny G]

One of the veterans, though, that kids still follow.

[Rich]

I'm just thinking like, is there someone because SGA that doesn't have the juice?

[Covino]

No. SGA got a deal with Nike because he was the main guy that Shaq was trying to recruit for Reebok. And that was the whole special was about trying to recruit him for Reebok. But he was already under contract, I'm pretty sure with Nike. He already had a sweet deal going. Who would be that guy to change the stigma? Your thoughts But, Tripp, you had one more thought. What up, Tripp?

[Danny G]

I do.

[Covino]

Hey, thanks for keeping me on my line. How about this? Things that make you go human. You know what I'm saying? A tight end, Greg Olson is now calling plays for the Raiders and Brock Bowers, regardless the outcome, has a big game. That's what I was thinking about.

[Rich]

I was thinking about the pizza you bought us last week, and I want to thank you for that.

[Covino]

Yes. Yes.

[Rich]

That's what I was thinking.

[Covino]

That was great. We must thank Trip for that delicious pizza. Hey, speaking of Steph Curry, did you see over the weekend again? We got fixings on our mind. You're visiting friends and family. You may have missed a few things here and there. Seth Curry signed with the Golden State Warriors. I thought that was pretty cool. Made me go, hmm.

[Rich]

I mean, he Thanksgiving, he missed out.

[Covino]

On all the fun, you know, all the winning that the Golden State warriors did. But to say that he played for them with his brother, I think that's kind of cool.

[Danny G]

I felt bad for AD when we filled in on Thanksgiving for Dan Patrick, we talked about how Anthony Davis hat was going to return for the Black Friday game against the Lakers. And after the Laker W, didn't he just look kind of, like, homesick when he was hugging Rui and some of his former teammates?

[Covino]

It was so sad. It really was. And seeing that he and LeBron still had their handshake and everything, and, yeah, it looks like he doesn't belong. And now we're hearing today that they're thinking about dishing him to the. To the Bulls. But that's his hometown, which would be cool, but you don't want to see a superstar bouncing around like that year after year. Like, it's. It's kind of messed up what's happening to Anthony Davis. That's the vibe I'm getting.

[Rich]

So to wrap it up, all the things that made you go, hmm, week 13 of the NFL and sports in general.

[Covino]

Austin Reeves should be playing in Skechers, bro. Austin Reeves, Arkansas and Skechers hitting threes. It just fits. Yeah.

[Rich]

What's up? I was Samuel.

[Covino]

I am a Skechers purchaser.

[Rich]

I'm a Skechers buyer.

[Covino]

But the biggest reason they need to rebrand, it's because of me. People like me, by the way. I buy them because they're really good.

[Rich]

You're the guy that said in the beginning of the show, jack White's not peculiar.

[Covino]

Like, no. Sam also gets to work, and he's a traveling man. I think Skechers are just really affordable. They always have a buy one, get one half off deal. So, like, it's a cheaper kind of shoe. If you're trying to look at the economical side of things. Yeah, I'd say not cheaper is a bad word. Maybe inexpensive, economic. Less expensive, more affordable. Affordable quality. That's why they are wearing. Nurses wear them. Absolutely. And they're comfortable. So it's a matter of that right person changing the image. I don't know if Embiid's the guy, but he debuted his. And who comes to mind? Dude. Not an immediately automatic person, that's for sure. There's not like one young cool guy that comes to mind for me and says to me, yeah, that's the guy.

[Rich]

I got two more quick NFL questions that we're going to get deeper into some stuff. We'll play a game. Well, some deeper into stuff meaning, like just talk more about specific teams. When I say AFC south, and we just talked about how the Colts are struggling.

[Covino]

Yeah. Not even saying they're. They're sort of done. When you look at the rest of.

[Rich]

Their schedule, they just lost two in a row. Close games that it's like, ooh, man. And you see the Jags, who, you know, they didn't play a tough opponent, but they did, they did win over the Titans 25 to 3. Just an easy lookup game. They cruise through and you see the Texans looking sharp. Who's the team that emerges from that division? Danny G. You high on that Texans defense, Do you think Trevor Lawrence, who looked, you know, he looked happy after yesterday's game, saying, like, yo, we're not done. We're. We're just starting to peak now.

[Danny G]

Like, yeah, that Texans defense is fun to watch, but I got to think that Daniel Jones can get enough good health here towards the end of the season to at least make a push into the wild card.

[Rich]

And I love how they all play each other over the next weeks. It's going to be fantastic football. And one other thought that I think because of their strength of schedule is sort of weak sauce for the most part, considering they are over.500. Do you guys think it's crazy to not count out the Dallas Cowboys?

[Covino]

No. And, you know, that's just from what I see and from what I hear, and people are really high on the Cowboys. Stephen A. Is even high on the Cowboys. That says a little something.

[Rich]

The Cowboys are gentlemen. They're a game and a half behind the Eagles. And as of right now, the Cowboys, they play the Vikings.

[Covino]

They're six and five commanders and the Giants, wouldn't you say they're more on a higher trajectory than the Eagles? Eagles are 8 and 4 in first place, the NFC East. But the Cowboys have been at least playing upward where the Eagles have been playing downward.

[Rich]

I just wish they played against each other one more time, even though the Cowboys did take the last one. I'm just saying the Eagles, Eagles have to play the Bills. They play the Commanders twice. So maybe Washington could help out the Cowboys in one of those. But I'm just saying, like don't. I wouldn't count out the Cowboys. I really wanted. That would be a wild story, huh?

[Covino]

We've been saying it, man. I wouldn't really count on anybody is anyone season right now.

[Rich]

So as Timmy Nobreaks would say, get.

[Covino]

This, get this, is anybody shot.

[Rich]

If the Chargers who play the Eagles on Monday night, the 8th, if the Chargers beat the Eagles and the Cowboys beat the Lions, they're a half a game apart with like 5 games to go. DB, this is not over.

[DB]

No. And I think a lot of people just looked at the wild card, but the division is definitely now in. In hand. And that is such a huge game for the Eagles could be weighing on the hand of Justin Herbert on what the outcome is. But yeah, it's, it's really like there's, there's multiple ways for the Cowboys to maybe make this postseason and they could, they could do a double in almost kind of knocking out the Lions in a way. If they beat them on Thursday and then you kind of move up the ranks in that way of the wild card, you'd be able to pass Detroit and then still be in position for the division.

[Rich]

Interestingly enough, we, you know, when that tie happened with the packers and Cowboys and we said, oh, this is going to like, it's, it's always plays a role. That tie always is. You know, it's funny, in the standings always keeps it, it keeps things like so lopsided, like so uneven. Do you remember that last play of that tie game? I know I'm asking you to remember a play, but Jordan Love throws a ball through the back of the end zone and it was ill advised and they gave the packers, oh, there's one second on the clock. And everyone that was watching was like, ooh, that's close. It felt like the clock very well could have run out and the packers were out of luck if they didn't give the packers that one second to kick a field goal and tie the game. Cowboys, we seven and five right now. They're one second away of a referee's call to give them one second where the. You know what I'm saying? So I'm just saying 7 and 5 is a lot different than 6, 5 and 1.

[DB]

At this stage of the game, we all hate ties. We do. Like, we can't stand them. But in like the case for Green Bay and that instance, better than a loss. And for the Cowboys, better than a loss.

[Rich]

True, true. But hey, it's. It's gonna. That tie is gonna really mess with you.

[Covino]

Hey, speaking of weird calls and we wrap up things that made you go. Anyone see that extra point where it was the Texans game.

[Danny G]

Oh yeah. Watching the announcers were like, I misses.

[Covino]

But dude, when you were watching it from the naked eye, didn't you automatically.

[Danny G]

Say they thought he missed?

[Covino]

How the hell did they call that guy Naked Eye?

[Rich]

I saw Luscious Jackson.

[Covino]

Who is that? Who sings Naked Eye? Luscious Jackson. Luscious Jackson style. From the naked eye. Everybody saw that. It was no good. They called it good. So that was kind of interesting.

[DB]

I'm glad you brought that up because it's actually been a thought of mine. Because of this problem, you can't make uprights go all the way to the top of the stadium. Right. It's not feasible.

[Covino]

Yeah.

[DB]

Why not have lasers like laser lights shooting through where. Okay. If you kicked it that high, sure it's not going to ricochet off, but the whole point is if it goes over, over the point of the bar, it's good. Right?

[Rich]

You would see it pass through the laser or touch the laser.

[Covino]

ABC solution. Seriously?

[DB]

Yes.

[Rich]

And you don't have to have them illuminated the whole time. Remember on the. The only sad, fortunate, unfortunate thing I could think of is after 911 they had those huge ass lasers going to the sky where the twin Towers were.

[Danny G]

You.

[Rich]

You could just have two illuminating.

[Covino]

That's it.

[DB]

Yes.

[Covino]

Solves that issue.

[Jenna Kim Jones]

Yeah.

[Covino]

But made me go, hmm, like we all saw it. How did they keep that good? That was so weak.

[Rich]

How many times have you seen a. A promo somewhere and they got, you know, huge ass lights in the sky.

[DB]

Light the beam in Sacramento and they get a win. Right?

[Covino]

Light it up and get it right. Because what if that was a. What if that was a field goal and you know, it was an integral part of the game. You're like. And that is to have sharks with.

[Rich]

Freaking laser beams attached to their heads.

[Covino]

Fix it, NFL. Because it made me go. Any other thoughts you could share? At Covino Enrich, at Fox Sports Radio. And we're going to get ready for last one standing, the game that's sweeping the nation. And there was an argument. I don't know if you saw this. There's an argument between Clippers announcers. It was sort of ingest and fun, but not really. As a broadcaster, I do believe that they were agitated with one another. And we gotta, like, break it down and play it out and see how you feel about it, too.

[Rich]

You want to do this?

[Covino]

There's lots to get to. Yes.

[Rich]

All right.

[Covino]

You want.

[Rich]

You want to play now? Want to hear these two guys?

[Covino]

Yeah. So this is Brian Seaman and Jim Jackson calling the Clippers game. And the story is basically about how one of the announcers sort of. What's the word he said?

[Danny G]

He said ambushed.

[Covino]

Ambushed.

[Danny G]

You ambushed me with that trivia question.

[Covino]

With like a pop quiz out of nowhere.

[Danny G]

Yeah. Brian Seaman didn't appreciate the fact. He didn't have time to research.

[Covino]

So they got into a little bit of an argument about it on tv.

[Rich]

Let me, let me. You know, I purposely did not listen to this because I wanted to. I wanted to get my fresh reaction because I've been working with this guy and you guys for a while. So when it comes to being ambushed on the air or when there's disagreements and you could tell, yo, this is real, versus like, yeah, are they having fun with this or are they genuinely mad? We've. We've seen this a couple times. Let's take a listen.

[Covino]

So I go back to that trivia question you sprung on me. Ambushed is a better word. The trios in the na. I didn't have bush. What was an ambush?

[Rich]

So the whole premise of the question was way off.

[Danny G]

No, it was not verbat. No, no, no.

[Covino]

You tell me. No, I'm not telling you.

[Danny G]

You tell me exactly what I asked.

[Covino]

You know, family members.

[Danny G]

I didn't say what was the first. I didn't say that the last.

[Rich]

I didn't say that. Go ahead. Didn't give me the question? No, cuz I'll tell you where it's off.

[Covino]

Okay. Would it be Mr. Main Event?

[DB]

That was his big name.

[Covino]

Get it? No, you don't. I do get it.

[DB]

Why?

[Rich]

Well, you could go one of two ways.

[Covino]

Boxing had a main event.

[Rich]

Also a little thing called the WWF.

[DB]

Had a main event. No, he's from Maine.

[Covino]

See, that's what I'm saying.

[Danny G]

See, now you want to twist my question.

[DB]

Play on words.

[Rich]

No, no. I'm bored by this guy.

[DB]

Ready?

[Covino]

So give me the question.

[DB]

I'm not.

[Danny G]

I think you could cut it, Sam. Let me Let me tell you, Rich, this went on for most of the third quarter. These two bickering guys with each other.

[Covino]

And all the comments, one guy felt shown up by the other. And that's what happens when you have two separate egos on one broadcast.

[Danny G]

Here's the problem though, Covino. You guys do an opinion based show together and you can have a full segment where you're disagreeing. These are play by play in color dudes. They're supposed to be. They're supposed to be commentating on the action on the floor.

[Covino]

They do something completely different.

[DB]

Yes.

[Danny G]

And that's why the Internet went crazy. Like Cooper flag posterized Zubot from the Clippers and they didn't even acknowledge it.

[Covino]

They're still fighting about it. It was insane. Yeah. So how do you feel about that? Because I'm one of those guys that. Luckily Rich and I have been working together for over 20 years. So he's like working with an annoying brother and vice versa. Right. So there's no ego there and I'm never offended. But Rich is the type of guy that ambushes people with trivia where it makes him look smart, but it only because he knows the answer or he just saw the answer or heard it the day before. Now he's posing it to make you, to put you on, look like an idiot.

[Rich]

Hold up, I would never.

[Covino]

You do that every day.

[Rich]

I would never hit you up with something I know you didn't know every day.

[Covino]

You do that every day. But luckily I don't care because I'm like. And most of the time, you know, I say, dude, just tell me. I say that all the time. Dude, just tell me. Because, you know.

[Rich]

Hold on.

[Covino]

Because you're setting me up. Either I know it or I'm gonna say something that just makes me look dumb.

[Rich]

I'm never gonna.

[Covino]

It makes you look smart because you just read the answer two minutes ago.

[Rich]

No, no, no. Trivia is different than your sports. Know how? Like if I said, hey, Camino, there's five guys that have hit there. You went 30, 30 in baseball the last couple. Yo, can you think of it? And if I feel like you're like, dude, I can't think right now, I'll be like, all right, let me tell you.

[Covino]

No, I. There's once a show, I say at least once a show. Dude, just. Just tell me. Dude, just say it. Because I could be right, but I could say something that makes me look like a total idiot.

[Rich]

For what?

[Covino]

For to make Rich look great.

[Rich]

Disagree, because I think you disagree because you're so unaware.

[Covino]

See, now we're fighting about it. He does it every show. He'll throw a random quiz out there and be like, oh, geez, I wish I would have been able to prepare or something, you know? And that's fine, and that's fun because I know you. If there's two broadcasters that don't know each other that well or they're just work acquaintances, it comes across as you're showing up that person. And that's why duos and trios never really work in broadcasting, because someone's toes are getting stepped on, someone's ego's bruise. Someone doesn't like how they feel in that moment. What are you trying to show me up, bro? That's why these things don't pan out. I don't care when you do it. Whatever. You know, I'm used to it.

[Rich]

Other people take it, per se. And there are times where you're questioning their.

[Covino]

Their.

[Rich]

I think giving. Giving someone a trivia question is way different than throwing someone a question that if they don't know the answer, they look exposed. Way different. If I'm like, who's exposed? If I said, who's got the most triple doubles this year? You get a guess. You might guess right or wrong. That's not exposing you.

[Covino]

But if I say, yet it does because it's weak. Because the only reason you know is because you just looked it up, because you saw it. So it's a sneaky way of looking, like you knew this when you just heard it probably a minute before.

[Rich]

All right, but if I.

[Covino]

Now you're posing it as if you always knew and that other guy doesn't.

[Rich]

But I think there's a big difference.

[Covino]

And that's how that guy felt. That's why they fought. He said that's why he used the word ambushed. You ambushed me. Because they're two regular dudes who are working together trying to do a fun broadcast. And Danny G's right. That's not even their job at that job at that point is to be.

[Rich]

Talking about the game.

[Danny G]

Why are they even talking about trivia questions? If I tune in to see the Clippers on tv, I just want to see the action on the floor. I'm not trying to hear about trivia questions.

[Covino]

I know, but I'm just saying.

[Rich]

Still time, too.

[Covino]

There's a lot of. There's a lot in between talk.

[Danny G]

But that's not an NBA game. Up and down the floor usually, Sam. Like, maybe some other sports like this.

[Covino]

That much time, though, it's like yo, man. People are tuning in to hear about what's going on.

[DB]

I'm going to take just quick, another dynamic with this. Brian Seaman's usually the guy giving the questions. Okay. He's usually the one, he's the lead.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[DB]

Yes. He's the host. He's the one that, you know, Jim Jackson is the player, the guy who's going to tell you about the game, but the guy who knows the information is Brian. So all of a sudden, Brian doesn't know the information. Brian gets a little hurt.

[Covino]

Yeah, it's a little reversal.

[DB]

That's the reversal of it is Brian's supposed to know everything. And I only know this from experience of like, yes. Of like doing a show. Kerry Rhodes, who knows, you know, played the game for eight years, knows so much about football and Kerry's never ambushed me on the show, but, like, there's like, I need to keep up my end of the bargain, like, of it. And if I don't know my own territory, man, I'm telling you, you know.

[Covino]

Rich, how many times have we seen duos in radio or broadcasting fall apart because they felt like they were trying to be one, upping each other all the time or they were exposing each other with these sort of things?

[Rich]

I agree with the dynamic, right? Like, as a Mets fan, you have your play by play guy, and then you're you at your athletes for the color commentary. You know, if Gary Cohen drops a fun fact, you know, the players like Keith and Ron aren't expected to know. They're like, oh, that's something else, huh, Gary? They're not asking Gary Cohen trivia because in your mind, you're assuming he knows, right?

[Covino]

So what if. Yeah, what if Ron Darling bamboozled Gary Cohen with like a. And Gary Cohen's like, oh, my nominal. It makes him lose credibility to the viewer. So now he's scammering like, man, that was sort of messed up. So your thoughts? Okay, 877-99-FOX. And we're going to play last one standing, actual trivia. Oh, we're going to do that next for some prizes right here on the Covino Enrich showgram program.

[Rich]

All right now, Kavin.

It's CNR's last word. One standing. Last one standing.

[Danny G]

Iowa Sam Takes you out with his big bad buzzer. Don't want to hear that. We keep battling until you are the last one standing. If you win two of the rounds, you are the top dog. Here are the contestants. 11 time winner, Steve Cavino, right over.

[Rich]

There.

[Danny G]

Next to him. Momentum on him his side the last two weeks. 17 time winner, Rich Davis.

[Rich]

Wow.

[Covino]

Yeah. He streak in the past, like.

[Danny G]

Yeah, one of those weeks DB wasn't here. 36 time winner, leader in the clubhouse. DB.

[DB]

Hello.

[Danny G]

All right, let's go to the studio lines to see who's playing for a CNR prize. First one through was Mike in Peoria, Illinois.

[Covino]

Hey, Mike.

[Danny G]

What up, Mikey?

[Covino]

Hey, good afternoon, guys.

[Rich]

What's up, man?

[Danny G]

Mike, what do you do for a living there in Illinois?

[Covino]

Well, I'm. I'm retired now, so I pretty much go to church a lot. And I pray for forgiven from Joe Girardi for making the last out of his high school baseball career. Wow, great.

[Danny G]

That's a lot of information.

[Rich]

That's trivia right there.

[Danny G]

By the way, spot is the fact checker during this game.

[Covino]

I hate it so much.

[Danny G]

He has a lot of anxiety, so be patient with him as he checks answers.

[Covino]

Pray to God about that.

[Danny G]

All right, clock's going to start when I say your name. The first category is take two. You have five seconds to name one of the 13 NFL teams who lead the league with the most two point conversions made this season. All right, 10 teams tied with two twos. Team at the top has five two.

[Covino]

Two twos.

[Danny G]

All right, Covino, you're going to be a first starting right now. Go.

[Covino]

Dan Campbell's a risk taker. I'll go. Lions here. Lions are not on the list. All right, well, still my thought process.

[Danny G]

Sorry about that, Rich.

[Rich]

I mean, I'll go. Very similar to Covino. Little tushy, pushy. The Eagles.

[Covino]

The Eagles are not on the list.

[Danny G]

Oh, man. Buyer.

[DB]

Andy Reid loves going for two, right? With all those trick plays.

[Covino]

Chiefs. The Chiefs are on the list.

[Danny G]

Buyer saved the category. All right, Mike.

[Covino]

I'm going with Denver Broncos. Broncos are on the list with four. Number two.

[Danny G]

Nice. Buyer.

[DB]

How about them Cowboys?

[Covino]

How about them Cowboys? They have three.

[Danny G]

All right, back to Mike.

[Covino]

Chicago Bears. Bears. Dub. Bears not on the list.

[Danny G]

Buyer wins that round.

[Covino]

Easy one.

[Rich]

Bill's on the list.

[Covino]

Danny G. What? Bills.

[Danny G]

Bills.

[Covino]

Bill's not on the list.

[Rich]

That would have been my second guess. Josh Allen.

[Covino]

That was my second guess. Just Josh Allen at number one with five would be the Jets. By the way, do you see? Josh Allen became The. What was the 76th rushing touchdown or something like that? The most ever. So that would have been my thought process, that maybe he just ran a few. But some of the other teams you missed. Niner. All. He's had two Niners. Bengals, Colts, Commanders. Dang. Dolphins, Falcons, Packers, Patriots, zero.

[DB]

Rhyme or Vikings.

[Rich]

Can I tell you, I hate categories like that because it takes no skill. But I will say this, though. Last night. Last night, Washington could have had one more if not for Marcus Marioch.

[DB]

All right, bars wide open.

[Danny G]

Yes. Buyer on the board. We go to the second category. Priceless Possessions. You have five seconds to name an NBA player who leads all time in most career turnovers. A lot of stars on this list, too. NBA player who leads all time in most career turnovers. Mike, we're going to start with you this time. It's a big list beginning right now. Go.

[Covino]

Chris Paul. Chris Paul. Not on the list.

[Danny G]

Sorry, brother. Buyer.

[DB]

Russell Westbrook.

[Covino]

Russell Westbrook, number two with $48.96.

[Danny G]

Nice. Rich.

[Rich]

Kobe Bryant.

[Danny G]

All right, Mike. There in Illinois, we thank you for playing the game. Appreciate you.

[Covino]

Thank you, buddy. Thanks for having me. Guys, love talking to you every Monday. Thanks, Mike. You can play again or play tomorrow. We're going to do Showtime Mahomes trivia tomorrow. Danny.

[Danny G]

Yes, sir.

[Covino]

So showboy Mahomes will be here asking some multiple choices trivia if you want another chance to win. Always giving away prizes on the Covino and Rich show.

[Rich]

Can I give everyone a homework assignment? I know no one likes school and homework from back in the day, but it's a fun one.

[DB]

Sure.

[Covino]

No, thanks.

[Rich]

I didn't ask you spot.

[Covino]

All right. You said everyone. I'm here.

[Rich]

I'm here. ESPN has that playoff simulator on their website. Cavino knows. You guys know that I love looking at the schedule.

[Danny G]

You're a geek. For this.

[Covino]

I just did it. Both of us. Both Rich and I ended up with the Rams as a first seat, obviously, but.

[Rich]

But mine's a little different than Cavino's. If you go Danny G. It's the.

[Covino]

It's called the NFL Playoff Machine.

[Rich]

The NFL Playoff Machine. I'll give ESPN website props. Look, just Google ESPN Playoff Machine. It pops right up. You could start with week 14, Danny, to, you know, just click that the Patriots win tonight. I mean, I know it's not a given, but. Right.

[Covino]

Takes like four minutes.

[Rich]

Took Covino that commercial break. I said weeks 14, 15, 16, 17, 18. It's five weeks, but just zip through the schedule and without thinking too much, just be like, click, click, click, click. And then by the end of it, it'll show you what your playoff picture looks like. And ours is different. Cavino has the Camino has the packers missing the playoffs. And, you know, I. I have the Colts and the Chargers missing the playoffs. Like. Like, it's really interesting to see where you think things will go over the next five weeks. Because, listen, we've had enough time now. We've had 13 weeks of football.

[Covino]

I also have the Colts not making the playoffs.

[Rich]

Yeah, you have the Colts missing, too. Right.

[Covino]

So my first seed is.

[Rich]

I have the Patriots.

[Covino]

Mine is the Broncos and the Rams.

[Rich]

Okay. I have the Pats as the number one seed. And I have the Chiefs sneaking in at 10 and seven as a seven seed.

[Covino]

It is kind of cool, though. I'll back Rich up on it. And it takes, you know, just a few.

[Rich]

It took a minute.

[Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich]

Two, three minutes.

[Covino]

Based on your guesses.

[Rich]

Like, you have Carolina, I have Tampa.

[Covino]

Right? Yeah.

[Rich]

Yeah. So, yeah, it's different. We both have somehow, though. I'm not saying I'm all of a sudden anti Eagles, Danny G. But it's very easy to find a path for the Cowboys if they play the way we think they're capable of playing.

[Covino]

And they're the Cowboys.

[Rich]

And you see the Eagles sort of.

[Covino]

I got your 49ers playing the Cowboys.

[Rich]

In the first round. Yeah, look at that.

[Covino]

So, hey, it's kind. Is kind of cool. I don't normally like to schedule, watch, or go that far ahead like Rich does, but it's kind of cool to see.

[Rich]

I just want to see where your.

[Covino]

Head'S at, screenshot it and see how close you are when we get there. Because we'll be there before you know it.

[Danny G]

Hey, Rich, any feeling on tonight's game? You think Jackson darts return is going to give the Giants any juice?

[Rich]

Listen, will they cover? I don't know. What is that? What is. Even the points. But this is one of those games. I already told you just a second ago. I've already, like, looked past it. So let me. Let me not do that. Let me. Was it 10? And what's tonight's point spread? 10.

[Danny G]

No juice.

[Rich]

I mean, I. Patriots went easy. It's New England by seven and a half. I think they cover. It's in New England. I mean, historically, Giants have really broken a lot of hearts in New England, but this ain't the Tom Brady, Eli Manning era, you know, like this. I think New England Cruises. They'll be 11 by halftime.

[Covino]

You might want to catch up on stranger things.

[Rich]

Yeah, they'll be 11 and 2. And then I think next week. Week, y'.

[Covino]

All.

[Rich]

Each week I feel like we're. We sound like the host of the Bachelor. Most intense greatest week ever. Do you see some of the matchups? Danny G. For next week?

[Danny G]

Dude, Packers, Bears. I can't wait for that one.

[Covino]

Packers 14 bears. Nice.

[Rich]

Oh, my God. Packers. Bears. Then even like on Monday night, Eagles out here in LA versus Chargers. So many telling games. Chiefs and Texans. So we'll get to all that this week. Have a great night. Arriba d', Arche, baby.

[Covino]

See you in the promised land. And later.
