Hope you had a great Monday night. A Dallas Cowboys, a 4, 5 and 1 Dallas Cowboys over your stink ass Raiders. Danny G. They might be the worst team in the league. The Raiders definitely have the worst O line. A lot of backups, but still they got an oh no, they have the worst. What I told you in the preseason, they have the worst depth in the league. If a starter goes down, they are screwed. You know, I take no pride in saying that. I'm not one to take jab. You know, when people are down. Danny G's a hardcore Raiders fan. But talk about. We'll put it this way, this old man was snoring. Boring. Unless of course, you're a Cowboys fan. 33 16. Your two and eight Raiders fell short last night, which means I dipped out mid fourth quarter and I put on the Eddie Murphy documentary, which was worth the watch. Rich, you were right about that. I finished that. Yeah, that was a good one. You know, you know what? You know, you know, he's such a legend, but you see the human side of him, which makes him more likable because he's older now and he could look back and be proud of the guy he once was and still is. But it's a different perspective when you see him. The family man that's on Netflix. And then I watched part two of A Rod. Alex Rodriguez versus a Rod on hbo. Max, another great behind the look sort of view on a legend. So I hope your Monday night was great. Let's have a kick ass Tuesday, Rich.

B (5:46)

Let's go. Hey, like you said, we're going to give away prizes with my homes trivia. We're going to talk Draymond. I have two wild stories you got to stick around for. One has to do with a mystery dinner I'm going on tonight.

A (5:57)

That sounds shady. I mean, it sounds interesting.

B (5:59)

You know what? Honestly, it does. So stick around for the details of this mystery dinner. Also a wicked dumb decision I made. So I made a terrible decision, a mystery dinner. But we got to kick things off with a guy that is so underrated. I feel like there's some something getting in the way of us acknowledging Austin Reeves as a superstar.

A (6:25)

Honestly, it's the most obvious observation. Which would be an obvious survation. But could it be that he's just such an unassuming superstar, like he's such a goober, such a all shucks kind of guy that he doesn't get the credit he deserves.

B (6:42)

Just say out loud what everyone's thinking. I'm just like a goofy looking white guy.

A (6:46)

Yeah, maybe that's what gets in his way because the stats are showing otherwise. The stats are saying he's on his way. He's on his way to superstardom. He's on his way to being a bigger star. He already should be that guy because he's got the numbers and he's on the lakers, he's in LA, he's playing with Luca and maybe tonight with LeBron. Like he should already be that guy. But he's taking like a, like a slow burn to the Mountaintop.

B (7:17)

You just said it. You said it. I'll give you the analogy. As our show intro said, I could somehow turn an analogy. What was it? Micah Parsons in sweaters. How about this? The Bachelor and Austin Reeves.

A (7:29)

Okay.

B (7:30)

You ever watched the Bachelor? Might have got stuck watching with the girlfriend or wife.

A (7:34)

Unfortunately, yes.

B (7:36)

And you see all these girls on the show and in their hometown, they're the hottest. Every dude gives him attention. Oh, she's from Salt Lake City, she's from Austin, she's from Nashville. In their town.

A (7:49)

Smash.

B (7:49)

Oh, my God, everyone's sweating. I'm drooling over them. But then when you put them in a room with 25 other hot girls, it's like pageant life. They're all hot, so you better step it up. And I think Austin Reaves is just in a room with Luka Lebron. He was in a room with Anthony Davis, LA and the Lakers stars.

A (8:09)

I don't even know if it's that. Actually. That's a great analogy. So I'm not dumping on it. It's actually a solid analogy. Maybe he's just not sexy enough for la and he has to put up circus numbers to really get their attention. So you think, you think he needs.

B (8:23)

An Austin Reeves LA glow.

A (8:24)

A regular looking guy, regular fella. And that's what makes him extra charming and I think more dangerous because people don't expect that from this guy. But like I said, the numbers say otherwise. Check this out.

B (8:36)

Are you saying, are you saying that he is wearing Adam Sandler shorts to the gym when he should be wearing like aloe or Lululemon or something?

A (8:43)

Yeah, he needs a glow up.

B (8:45)

Get this. Okay, let's hear it.

A (8:47)

Austin reaves has the second most 25 point games by a Laker guard since 2000. Only Kobe had more. Second only to Kobe is unreal Kobe. So Reeves is now in serious company, but he has to be at Kobe level to start getting this recognition. Yeah, everybody knows he's got game. Everybody knows he's. What did, what did they describe him as earlier? Like a bad. Like he's a bad man kind of. I forget how he was described, but on the court they know he's great, but the world needs to recognize.

B (9:25)

And then I'm telling you, it's, it's, there's, there's a sense of he's a gooberish white guy. And I think people compare him to like Caruso for some reason or like.

A (9:35)

Because he's white. Yeah, he's white. Not assuming.

B (9:38)

Yeah. It's just there's there's something to be said about that. Like, that's not racist. It's not.

A (9:43)

It is. But I think Caruso had more swag.

B (9:48)

Right off the bat.

A (9:49)

Austin Reeves had to find the headband.

B (9:52)

And get the floppy hair to the side. But you know what? It is like, we can't be fake about this. If you go to the schoolyard and you see some dad with wacky shorts and a headband on and he's beating the young, flashy players in, like, schoolyard ball, that's sort of what Austin Reeves is doing. Everyone else seems like they have way much, way more swag and way more style and way everything. And this guy just, he knows how to ball, and it does. Like you said, there's nothing sexy about him. Even his post games. Like, he's so, like, he's charming in a goofy way.

A (10:21)

I forget what Redick said about him, though. He's something about, like, everyone on the court knows that he's dangerous. He's a bad dude.

B (10:27)

I also know what Reddick said. Bronnie, you got to take that effing shot. Did you see that clip?

A (10:32)

Yeah. You know, we're going to talk Bronnie and LeBron in a minute. In fact, the reason we're kicking it off with Austin Reeves is what's going to happen if LeBron gets into the game tonight. As of now, it's looking possible that he's playing with the Jazz. His return is tonight with the Jazz, so there's a lot of eyes on the Lakers. How's this going to vibe? You got Laravia, Luca Reeves, and LeBron? Will they all vibe? Will the chemistry be there? How long are we willing to wait till it kicks in? Will it ever be at the point if it doesn't kick in where people boo LeBron like, Yo, you're ruining the vibe. You know, how patient are the fans going to be? But we have to point out before LeBron gets on the court that Luca and Reeves have been putting on a show again with Laravia. But Reeves has been playing like a superstar, not just a good player. Like, to get attention, he has to be a superstar, and that's what he's doing. After going 5 for 9 from deep against the Bucks, Austin Reeves has officially passed Caldwell Pope for seventh place on the Lakers all time. Three points made, list total three pointers made. Reeves, 523 threes. 523 threes, 37% in 291 games. Caldwell Pope, 522, 522 threes and 38%. 292 games. So he's just climbing the ranks left and right day after day, numbers going up. And as these memes and as the stats show, he's just getting started, like, so he's already climbing the three point ranks for Lakers. He's in Kobe company And I still don't think he's getting that superstar treatment he deserves. Is he on his way to superstardom? Should he already be there? He's on the Lakers. I mean, I think he should be there already. Now. What happens tonight, Rich? If LeBron's in and we'll be waiting for Dan Byers update, it's looking likely, right, Danny G. That he's playing tonight. All day we've been hearing that he's aiming for the return tonight. What are your thoughts about Reeves? Does he just start blending in again like a wallflower because LeBron and Luka are back? Or is this where we seen him shine the brightest? You think LeBron's gonna rely on him to be the guy? We'll see what happens tonight.

B (12:49)

Hold on. There's also a sense of he wasn't Drafted, undrafted in 2021, played for Wichita State in Oklahoma.

A (12:57)

Grab onto those stories even more. No, like I think, look, we're in la, so it's one thing. Is the rest of the world taking note of what he's doing.

B (13:08)

By the way, I find that I just rolled my eyes on his Wikipedia. It says that, oh, he's a NBA cup champion, champion.

A (13:17)

But here's the other thing. And Danny G. Could attest to this because he's the most hardcore Laker guy in the studio. He watches every game. You know, you and I, Rich, depending on if it's on and when it's on and when we're able to get it. We don't have Spectrum cable, but of course we see all the highlights. I do, however, have access to some of the games now. Illegally, I mean, because I ordered something else. I gave you my password. I know. Like three seasons ago. I know. So now I have been tuning in and for whatever reason, maybe it's when certain people are out, like LeBron, you then are forced to step up. He's clicking harder than ever and that's been sort of the head scratcher. As to man, Austin Reeves is really putting it all together this year. Is it a matter of being comfortable in the league, being confident in himself, or getting the opportunity and capitalizing on it again when it was necessary? Danny G, you said it yourself. For whatever reason, he's clicking and it's Noticeable? Yeah, because at the end of last season, right before they went to camp, he went out with a whimper. He played awful. And so something clicked during the off season, during workouts, scrimmages, and Redick said as much. He said the biggest thing with Reeves taking this step forward as a lead was as a leader and recognizing that it's as much his team as it is LeBron's or Lucas, and acknowledging that he has natural leadership skills, that's awesome. So, you know, this being said, my, my, my point is simple here. I have a point and a question and then. Rich, all you.

B (14:46)

Yeah, go ahead.

A (14:47)

I think he should be a bigger star. Of course, there's a lot of excitement around them here in LA especially, but I think he should be a household name. He's on his way. I think he should already be there. I think he should be a bigger star, and I think that's bound to happen. And then the part two of the question is, if LeBron returns tonight, how do you think that's going to affect the chemistry and his superstardom moving forward? Enhance or dehance that opportunity? Is that even a word? I'm not sure.

B (15:13)

I'm not sure.

A (15:14)

Behance. Roll with it, bro. That up.

B (15:16)

Decline might be the word.

A (15:18)

Sure.

B (15:19)

I'll go with the hands.

A (15:21)

Duh.

B (15:22)

Hands, duh. And so productivity From Austin Reeves, 4 years, 7 points a game, 13 15. Averaging over 20 this season, all career highs except 3 point percentage is slightly down from a couple years ago. I think LeBron is clearly going to dive into that production, but I think effectiveness, he's in his zone. I got to ask you, Danny, from watching day in and day out, is it, is he an All Star automatically in your mind, like when we're talking about All Star Weekend, NBA international stars versus US Stars this year, right. If he wasn't. Right.

A (15:59)

Yeah, he's one of the standout players so far this season. He's got to be. See, the fact that you would even ask that and you're on Fox Sports Radio goes to show you how the rest of the world is also feeling. But I'm just saying he's an All Star, right? Like undeniably an All Star.

B (16:17)

But would you be, would you be shocked if he was maybe shunned or like a last minute.

A (16:21)

But that's, that's the problem. He should be a bigger star, right? So like we declare today, even though a lot of you probably know this, we make it a fact, we make it official, like Danielle Fishel official today, that this dude is a superstar in the league. If anything changes moving forward, we blame LeBron because his job is to make everybody even better. If he can make Austin Reaves even better, then let's see it, man. The Lakers are going to be a force moving forward and it starts tonight. Tonight. Austin Reaves a star tonight.

B (16:56)

Well, if you're going to declare it, you got to do like an old Southern woman and be like I do declare that tonight is.

A (17:02)

Tonight's like a Foghorn Leghorn.

B (17:06)

So tonight if you got, if you got LeBron Luca and Austin Reeves on the court and they somehow find balance, Daniel son Danny G is going to not be able to stand up in a sweatpants number one. Number two, you got a pretty pumped Laker fan base if those three could somehow find. Find a way to really make it work together. And Danny, you said that the team got better defensively. You, you've talked about how they fixed some of the holes they had last year. So yeah, Marcus Smart has made the.

A (17:40)

Defense better and DeAndre D. Ayton has been playing very well.

B (17:45)

He. Aiden's been the guy you've been raving about. Even though it does seem like OKC is unbeatable, the Lakers could be the team to give them difficulty. So I am intrigued to see how they play OKC throughout the season in those few matchups when all on the court.

A (18:02)

That's the, that's the ultimate test. Yeah. When all healthy and all clicking again, is there going to be. There's going to be another adjustment period for them to click again once LeBron returns. If it's tonight. And then the last observation, I'm going to make this. When you have a storied franchise like the Lakers, I hate to compare them to the Yankees, but it's true. When certain players start climbing the franchise ranks, like an Aaron Judge, you know his name's right up there with Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig all the time. When you start climbing those ranks and your name's amongst the franchise greats, it's just a matter of time before the rest of the league and the rest of the fans start taking note. Lakers fans know when this guy is seventh all time in three points made in 291 games in a story franchise like the Lakers. What It's a different, different game. But when he's also side by side with Kobe's and he's climbing the franchise ranks, that's when the rest of the league and the rest of the fans start taking note. It's a. It's a matter of time where he's a superstar. If he keeps us up, he's a superstar. If he keeps us up. He could be like on your, in your kid's room, on a poster bound. If he were to keep it up and LeBron can help that, he could help it or hurt it. We're hoping as of tonight he helps that. But the story's been Reeves until today. So before we start focusing on LeBron moving forward because all clues say he he's in tonight, let's give props where they're due. He should be a bigger star, but he's playing like he's on his way to being a superstar.

B (19:42)

Question. Where do you see unbiasedly being that you hear about the Lakers from? Danny, you're an LA guy now and you know you've adopted the Lakers is like sort of your rooting interest now that you've been in California over a decade. Do you think they're a hot bet at plus 1500 for the NBA Finals? Because right now Vegas feels like it's a layup. Pun intended. Okc is plus 1. 75. To repeat the sentiment is that okc just rips through everyone. Nuggets number two at plus 550. Then you got the Cavs and the Knicks and a couple east coast rips. Rips, bro.

A (20:23)

Do you want to hear something crazy about SGA of the Thunder? He has sat out nine different fourth quarters. Not because of injury, not because he wants to go onto the bench. Because they've done out. They've blown out everybody. What a luxury. Man. You don't need load management when you're whooping everybody's ass.

B (20:40)

I mean, I'd have to call our friends Elias at the sports bureau, but this is like, this has to be like Jordan Bulls odds. This has to be like Golden State. Steph Draymond and Clay Thompson in their prime. NBA odds. Like in the first month or so of the season, like Danny G +175. You realize that's like a weak ass bed. That's like very little return for OKC to win the whole thing. Like, I, I hate to say it, I. Because I love the NBA chat, but is it all just going to result in OKC repeating and we're just going to be like, yeah, I feel.

A (21:15)

Well, that's where LeBron has to fit into this puzzle for the Lakers right now. Because for whatever reason, they came out flat last week against OKC and laid an egg in that game. DeAndre8 and afterwards said that he felt.

B (21:28)

Like it was a cold splash of.

A (21:30)

Water on their face, waking them up. Because then the Lakers, next to road games, they blew out their competition by over 20 points in each game. So it did wake them up, but they got to wake up against the best.

B (21:42)

Yeah, well, just again, according to Las Vegas, Vegas makes it seem like even though we're only a month in, if you were to make your, you know, futures bets, OKC in Denver, Cleveland and the Knicks. So it's like Cavs and Knicks.

A (21:58)

Winner.

B (21:58)

Plays okc, essentially, Lakers, Golden State, T. Wolves. There's some teams with some pretty good odds. So if you think some of those teams are going to step it up and make a run months from now, like, we're talking, like in the spring, we're so far away. But right now it just seems like the Oklahoma City Thunder are unbeatable.

A (22:18)

So why isn't Austin Reeves a bigger star outside of Los Angeles? Okay, why isn't he a household name? Again, popular player. I'm not saying he's a scrub. He's. He's one of the best in the league. But why isn't he a bigger star? And is LeBron gonna help her hurt this situation moving forward? And then I want to hear from Danny Gian, how patient are the Lakers fans gonna be to see them click in the way they are right now with LeBron? So we got that. We got some Draymond Green stories. We.

B (22:53)

One last note about OKC. You know, they're 14 and 1. You know that one loss they were up in the fourth quarter. And Portland, who's playing decent, Portland's a mid level team. You know, Portland is. Put up a 40 spot in the fourth quarter and beat them by two. That's the only loss OKC had. It was on the road and Portland scored 40 in the fourth to win. Yeah, look for that.

A (23:18)

Look what it took to win that game. That's amazing. It took. So it took a 40 point fourth quarter to beat them.

B (23:25)

So what I'm saying is, yeah, it's this, this team. I know that 73 and nine Golden State warriors record seems unrealistic because the Bulls in Jordan or, you know, not even as good as that. And you're like, come on. What, how you get. Would you be shocked if this team rips off another 14 out of 15 and they're 28 and 2? That seems insane.

A (23:50)

Well, that's what makes tonight's return even more exciting, more enticing to watch. And that's our job to get you hyped on your random Tuesday night. What else are you doing? Check out this Lakers game, it's Jazz at Lakers, right? Danny G. It's a home game, is it not? Yeah, it's in la. It's a. It's Jazz at Lakers. So now you got to tune in and see how this all pans out. See how LeBron fits into the chemistry that's already been built around Austin, Reeves and of course Luca. So your thoughts we'll take. Take your phone calls. 87799 on Fox. We'll talk some more NBA Dream on Green. In fact, he's in the news. And we got some oh showboy Mahomes trivia all coming up right here on the Cavino and Rich show, Fox Sports Radio.

B (24:35)

But if you're thinking about going anywhere. Yeah, my mystery dinner story, you got to hear this. We'll do that next. In fact, you got to watch us on the YouTube channel. But a mystery dinner, you're gonna, you're gonna be like, why would you ever do this? So please, you got to hear this out next. Okay.

All right, shout outs to Austin Reaves.

A (31:15)

Are you saying Austin Reaves is pretty fly for a white guy? Is that why he has that 31 tattoo? Mm. So he is pretty fly for a white guy. And for that reason, I think he should be even more popular than he is. I feel like if he had a foreign guy name, he'd be more popular. I'm serious. I feel like people don't buy into his nerdy hype the way they should. The way they should is are people taking note and noticing for sure. But look how far he has to go for that to be the case. Like I said, now he's in Kobe company in a lot of these stats. It seems like every night he's breaking through as a franchise leader or top 10 in something Laker related. So it's been undeniable and it's a real seize the moment sort of opportunity for this guy. He's really stepped up this year. Like Danny G explained, he's really clicking. And. And it's a two part question based on LeBron's return tonight. Potential return. We'll stay tuned for Dan Beyer. Don't you think he should be a bigger star? He should be a bigger star. So that being said, he's on his way to being a superstar if he keeps it up. But how does LeBron help or hurt that if he's back tonight? And how patient are the fans willing to be? I think they're, you know, they're willing to be patient. I say you gotta give it a week or two before they start booing the guy if they start losing. But I mean, you're playing the Jazz tonight at home. He'll be fine.

B (32:49)

Yeah, they'll be all good Now, Kavino, quick follow up from something we talked about a few weeks ago.

A (32:53)

Yeah.

B (32:54)

And I told you, I want to tell you just a quick, like a ridiculous story. I'm calling it my mystery dinner.

A (32:59)

I can't wait to hear it. Cavino and Rich live from the Fox Sports radio studio. Rich is in Austin, so.

B (33:04)

Yeah.

A (33:04)

Who you meeting? Hold on. Austin?

B (33:06)

Oh, no, no, I'll tell you in a second. But last night for Monday Night Football, I finished hosting this event I was here to host. And remember recently we talked about what are good solo missions. I sat at a restaurant, I think it was called the Iron Cactus. And I had fish tacos and watched Monday Night Football. And I think there's nothing wrong. Remember we talked about what's an okay solo mission? I felt so relaxed and I think everyone needs that once in a while if you're away on business, like sitting at the bar, just having a burger or some tacos with your kid by.

A (33:37)

Yourself, just taking it in and small, talking with the locals. And on the company's dime, even better. Yeah, that's the best.

B (33:45)

No doubt. Tonight this is something that I know you would be like, nope, I'm out. So there was like a group text to like six people and it was like, hey, after the event on tomorrow night, how about we all go out for dinner? Now I'm here for a corporate event with SiriusXM.

A (34:03)

Okay.

B (34:05)

Now since that message went out, a few people started saying, oh, sorry, can't make it, I have a meeting. Someone else said, oh, I have a friend in town, sorry. So it started dwindling down. And then a number I don't recognize says, well, I'm still down. Rich, do you want to meet up for something quick to eat? I don't know who it is. And I said, yeah, sure, as when I'm done with Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports radio. Yeah, like 6:30, 7:00 clock, Texas time. Yeah, sure. I don't know if this is a man, a woman, a salesperson, someone with SiriusXM, a client.

A (34:43)

Dude, what if it's like a total sex pot sex bomb. What if it's like someone super sexy now you're there in an awkward situation. Yeah. And your wife makes you FaceTime? Yeah. What if like someone recognized, hey, isn't that Rich Davis from Fox Sports? And they snap a picture of you canoodling with a strange woman. You end up in the tabloids and it ruins your marriage. Yo, you're playing with fire, dude. Chances are some fat sales guy. But what if it's some hottie dude?

B (35:09)

I mean, I was looking handsome yesterday. I don't know, but all I'm saying is.

A (35:12)

Oh, you were saying mystery guest. Weren't you thinking like he's meeting up with like Dak Prescott or somebody? I don't know, like he's in Texas.

B (35:20)

Me and CD Lamb are going out for a tacos to celebrate his victory.

A (35:24)

Who? Who's in Texas? Who could it be that Rich is meeting up with? This is a cool story.

B (35:29)

Yeah. You don't even know.

A (35:30)

You don't even know who it is.

B (35:33)

So I know you. You would say no way or. Because I don't know how you ask, who is this man?

A (35:40)

That's awkward. How are you gonna know who you're looking for when you go to meet up? Are you gonna tell them to wear like a certain color shirt or. Rich. How about that? So that's even more awkward. Rich should get there early, right? And just be like, hey, I'm wearing the I'm wearing a red T shirt so that someone comes up to him no matter what.

B (35:58)

Yeah. Again, it can only be like one of two. But then again, I met so many people.

A (36:04)

Why can't you reach out to someone else that canceled and be like, by the way, who's the mystery number?

B (36:10)

Half of them are mystery numbers because.

A (36:12)

They'Re just clients at the car company.

B (36:15)

The only woman I really know on the on the thread is the saleswoman, Jasmine, at SiriusXM and one of the. One of the dudes for the car company. Besides that, it was just all ancillary people. Rich, are you still down? I'll find a barbecue spot. And I'm like, guy, girl, who is this dude?

A (36:33)

It's gonna be an awkward situation. By the way, this is what you get for being, like, a cheese wiener, for just being such a yes man. You know, like, being too nice for your own good. I hope you're in an awkward situation. Like, the weakest guy ever. That's. I really do.

B (36:48)

Thanks.

A (36:48)

No, I really do. Like, I feel like this is what you get, but that's what's gonna happen. It's not gonna be some cool, hot, steamy, sexy story where some girl.

B (36:55)

Put yourself in this scenario where. All right, let's say you and I. Because, see, you and I, it would be fine because we'd be together. But let's say Steve Covino was hosting.

A (37:02)

What's the event, though? It's a car event.

B (37:04)

The car company Polestar.

A (37:06)

Oh, yeah. Seems to be like the head mechanics. Like, hey, I'm Bart.

B (37:09)

Great to see you.

A (37:10)

I'm Bart from Ball Star from Polestar. I'm the head mechanic for Polestar. I hope that's what you're gonna get. He's gonna talk to you all night and be annoying, and he's gonna stick you with the bill.

B (37:20)

Let's say Don and Scott and our bosses and Julie were like, kavino, Rich. You know, we want you to meet with some clients, and I'm like, Camino, I got a bail. And you had that mystery scenario on a group chat.

A (37:32)

I'd pass. Yeah, I'm good. Well, I guess another time, guys. I'll take a rain check when everybody's available. Thanks. Yeah, but you. That's what you get for being Mr. Social Pants. All right, so tomorrow.

B (37:46)

How about this? Tomorrow, Kavino. On our kavino and rich YouTube livestream for Fox Sports Radio, I'll reveal in picture form who the mystery person was.

A (37:56)

All right. Hey. And what would you do? It's. You make the call. 87799 on Fox. But first, let's talk to our guy, the best, the guru, Dan Beyer. He has an update. What up, DB DB well, there we go. Maybe it's John Canones. It is, actually. What would you do? You could spot that head a mile away. How did you say yes to that meal? All right, Lane Kiffin has not said yes or no to Florida or lsu, but he also hasn't said it to Ole Miss, but the head coach did speak with Pat McAfee today denying that Mississippi asked for an ultimatum on his job status. That's absolutely not true. There's been no ultimatum anything like that at all.

B (38:42)

And so I don't know where that came from. Like a lot of stuff that comes out there.

A (38:46)

Like I said, man, we're having a blast. I love it here. There were reports yesterday that said the school gave him a Nov. 28 deadline to decide on whether to stay in Oxford or go to possibly Florida or lsu. He was not asked today about the reports that his family toured Baton Rouge and Gainesville recently. Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers won't need surgery on his fractured left wrist. He won't practice tomorrow, but hasn't been ruled out of their Week 12 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Jalen Warren expected to play for the Steelers on Sunday despite spraining his ankle last week. Houston Texans quarterback C.J. stroud practiced today, but he has yet to clear concussion protocol and now has been ruled out of Thursday night's game against the Buffalo Bills. The NFL has reinstated free agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. From his six game ban for performance enhancing drugs, and police in Ohio say more than $200,000 worth of property was stolen from the home of Bre Brown's rookie quarterback, should or Sanders on Sunday. Bunch of NBA notes First, as you guys talked about, LeBron James still remains questionable to make his season debut tonight against the Jazz. LeBron did say on the Mind the Game podcast with Steve Nash that he will not be playing for Team USA in the 2028 Summer Olympics, while Steph Curry was on that podcast and the warriors guard said he's unlikely to play for Team usa. Bucs forward Giannis and Dedicumpo is going to miss a week or two because of a left groin strain. Spurs guards define Castle as a hip flexor strain that will cost him about a week or two. And the Cavaliers were fined $100,000 for violating the NBA's Player Participation Policy when they rested Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley against the Heat last week. Guys, back to you.

B (40:21)

Yo db. It goes with my theory that everyone's too big and too strong. Giannis Wemby everyone's fragile on the anniversary of the day the Christmas story came out, everyone's a little too fragile. Getting banged up. Lane Kiffin Any truth to the NFL giant rumor is that was that just nonsense?

A (40:41)

I think that that could be a part of it. But you know, as we talked about here, a lot of Season to go. I think Mike Kafka is still trying for that job. The tough part is, is he's probably gonna have to make a decision on Florida and LSU way before that Giants offer would even come his way.

B (40:56)

Yeah. Thank you, Dan Byer and Dan Cove.

A (41:00)

Yeah.

B (41:00)

Something Dan Byer said was just a complete reminder. You've said this before, so I'll give you credit, since you love credit.

A (41:07)

Okay, let's hear it.

B (41:09)

When you go on vacation or leave your house or go out on a date night, post the pictures later. I know Shador is playing, and you can't do anything about it. He's a superstar. Well, not a superstar. He's a player in the NFL. But you don't have to advertise that you're out of your house. Like, don't be, like, in Aruba. Post the pictures when you get back. At my kid's game. Post the picture when you get back. You're just giving people an opportunity to know you're not at home. It's a weird thing.

A (41:35)

Go to your social media right now. I, George Foreman, guarantee you'll see the random hotties you follow or one of your Jaboni idiot friends posting somewhere that they're on vacation, they're on a beach, they're on a little getaway. And basically what they're doing is they're advertising to everybody and potential thieves out there and burglars. Hey, my house is empty if you want to go rob me. That's not what you should be doing. If you have some valuables or you're an important person of sorts.

B (42:03)

No, no doubt, no doubt.

A (42:04)

So that's your reminder coming up.

B (42:06)

I have to tell you about the wicked, dumb decision I made. Oh, so dumb. I feel like such a fool.

A (42:11)

And Draymond Green, we gotta talk about who's in the wrong here. This guy's fighting with fans. Is the fan. Is it Draymond? Is it security? Security. We get to that and we got showboy Mahomes trivia. Lots to get to. On the Kavino and Rich show. Fox Sports Radio. Covino and a Rich. Sorry, I'm choking here. CNR on fsr. Sorry, man. I'm just getting emotional. No, I was actually eating one of those Quest chips. You know, those freebies that we get.

B (42:44)

Yeah, of course.

A (42:45)

Choking on a splinter went right down my throat. CNR on fsr. And thank you, Fox Sports Radio Nation, for hanging out with us. We're live from the Fox Sports Radio studio, and it's time for our tire rack play of the day. Right when it looked like the raiders would make a game out of it. Just when you thought they were in it. Get this. Geno Smith had another tip. Ball picked off.

B (43:11)

First down, Smith play action.

A (43:13)

He's got all day.

B (43:14)

Deep to the middle. The ball is tipped and intercepted at.

A (43:17)

The five yard line.

B (43:18)

Here comes Marquis bell down the left.

A (43:20)

Side on the deflection up to the 35 before he's run out of bounds. That's courtesy of Dallas cowboys radio network. Our tire rack play of the day again. The cowboys with the win last night 3316 are now 4. And for over 40 years Tirex been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive ship fast and free backed by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire rack.com way Tire buying should be. That's Geno's 13th pick of the year. 13th. Tied for the most, you know, in the NFL. Rich, who's he tied with? Who do you think you love? You love these little trivia questions.

B (44:01)

All right. Who's Geno tied with most most picks in the national football league?

A (44:04)

Yeah.

B (44:05)

Justin Fields.

A (44:06)

No, but could guess because give me.

B (44:10)

A AFC or nfc.

A (44:11)

It's two. I'll just give it to you. I don't want to waste time.

B (44:13)

Okay, let me guess. 2.

A (44:16)

There you go with 13.

B (44:18)

So Kavino on Thanksgiving day, speaking of the Cowboys, you know how most people love to root against the Cowboys because it's fun.

A (44:26)

Yeah.

B (44:27)

I think on Thanksgiving day when they play the Chiefs, I think the sentiment of people having Chiefs fatigue. I think if the cowboys could help bury the Chiefs in the AFC standings, I think you might see a lot of people sort of pulling for Jerry Jones and them cowboys on Thanksgiving day. That's going to be a sort of a fun game to watch. Just because I think who loses is more important.

A (44:48)

No, absolutely. But didn't they also announce on a side note their halftime show because they always put on like an epic halftime show.

B (44:57)

I remember the Dolly Parton one was dope, isn't it?

A (45:00)

Post Malone, I believe. And someone else. It is post Malone. It's post Malone but with a star studded cast of characters. So it's pretty post Malone. Yeah. The most epic one was Creed back in the day. Remember Creed?

B (45:13)

That was a good one.

A (45:14)

Super epic performance with the.

B (45:16)

But I remember everyone loving Dolly Parton like a year ago or so. That was fantastic too.

A (45:20)

Oh, for sure. But post Malone is a lifelong Cowboys fan. It's him. Oh, and Jack White, right? Jack White, the rock and roll hall of Famer. So you know what?

B (45:31)

I asked you the other day, and you, you and I both agree that it's hard because they're both anthems. I said, what 2000 song is more of a stadium anthem 20, 25 years later? I said, Mr. Brightside. The Killers or Seven Nation Army? White Stripes and Kavina's. Like both, but for different reasons.

A (45:48)

Right.

B (45:49)

I agree with you.

A (45:49)

One's a sing along and one's just, I don't know, a state, a stadium, sort of hype. You hype.

B (45:55)

Riff, you can't go to any game without hearing, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Black Friday. I just want to point this out to a game that in the beginning of the season might have seemed like it's high, but they got that Black Friday game. Now, Bears and Eagles, Your first place Bears, your first place Eagles. Who would have thought that would be, like, such an amazing game to have on that Friday after everyone's, like, sitting around eating leftovers, act like a fat slob.

A (46:24)

No. Now it's actually. Yeah, a competitive game, so something to look forward to. And again, hope you enjoyed your Monday night game. Props again to the Cowboys, Danny's Raiders. Oof.

B (46:35)

Oof.

A (46:36)

Now we just want to set up the stream on Green stuff for next hour. And of course, Showboy Mahomes trivia. Coming up, your chance to win some prizes. If we have time. We'll talk more about Jake, Paul and A.J. because there's some updates there. But Draymond Green, they're playing the Pelicans, and he gets into it with a fan. And the fan, as the story goes, keeps harassing him, calling him Angel Reese. Now the story, as I'm sure you heard, I heard Gottlieb talking about it. Everyone's sort of talking about it. It was funny at first. The fan who called him Angel Reese, he missed several shots, got his own rebound. So very Angel Reese esque. But that's her.

B (47:17)

That's her move.

A (47:18)

Yeah, she leads in rebounds. Cause she just rebounds her own shots.

B (47:22)

She's the queen of me bounce.

A (47:23)

That's. Yeah, Me bounce. That's the joke, obviously. And he pulled one of those moves, but the fans in his face. The fans said he would have punched Draymond Green in the face if it went further. Dream on. Green again said it was funny at first, but got agitated. Do you blame the fans for just being relentless? Do you blame Draymond Green for being human and enough's enough?

B (47:46)

No.

A (47:46)

Do you blame security for allowing these things to even happen even a little bit?

B (47:52)

There's someone totally in the wrong and I'll let you know who it is next. Hang tight.

A (47:57)

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. Can we get Thanksgiving first? I'm hungry. What's up y'?
