Rich Davis
Shit, could I. Oh, can I throw everyone for a loop real quick?
Steve Covino
Yes, you're good at that.
Rich Davis
ADD's blazing like hip hop and R B on Hot 97 in the 90s.
Steve Covino
What was it?
Rich Davis
What was the big hip hop channel? Danny G out here for you. Blazing hip hop and R B.
Dan Byer
We had power 106 and 92.3.
Rich Davis
The beat blazing my ADD's blazing like hip hop and R B. The 2000s and 90s. One of our buddies posed a hypothetical and I know you and I were like, hey, maybe we'll save her for over promise, but I think more people in on the conversation might make it more fun. If that's cool with you real quick. And then we'll get to a Rosa Reyna and Cal Raleigh and whether or not they're ever going to be bros again. We'll get to that. We'll get to more NFL moves. But can I throw a hypothetical out there courtesy of our palace mouser in Cincinnati?
Steve Covino
If I said no, I'd still do it.
Dan Byer
So you're right.
Steve Covino
Okay.
Rich Davis
But I think it's a good one. I really do, bro. I really do. He posed a question. If a high school team played a pro team in all sports, what would the biggest blowout be? And what would the closest game be like? Where is the.
Steve Covino
I think the answer is obvious, but when you think further, you might change.
Rich Davis
It's all over the place because I'm looking at basketball highlights and football and baseball and hockey. All right, if I were to say, take a good. I'm not talking like an all American, a good high school team and put them against a pro team. What high school team keeps a game the closest? And here's my initial thoughts. And then you guys could all chime in, if that's cool. I don't think a high school kid could tackle Derek Henry. I don't think a high school kid on a good regular team could keep up with any route run by a Tyree Kill type. I think in football, a high school team would get Massacred by an NFL team.
Steve Covino
Is there a big butt coming up?
Rich Davis
No.
Steve Covino
You have a cardi b but anywhere
Rich Davis
in here I think.
Steve Covino
Because you think some high school kid is teeing off on a Paul Skeens.
Rich Davis
That's what I'm saying. I think, I think if you have a professional mlb. I don't think a good high school baseball player could touch big league pitching. And I think big league hitters would tee off 75 mile an hour high school pitchers. That it would be astronomically blowouts. And then in basketball, my guess was basketball might be the closest because a good team could maybe play defense enough or get a couple lucky shots, heave up some shots and maybe control the ball more, keep it the closest and. And hockey, I just feel like maybe the same thing where you might be able to just skate around and have control of a puck.
Steve Covino
I don't know.
Dan Byer
Probably still the speed and physicality.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
If you'd get smushed.
Steve Covino
What are your.
Rich Davis
What is your hypothetical Is fun.
Steve Covino
But you said the obvious and that's exactly how I feel too. But I have football by far. Because you're dealing with man strength and monsters. Even the best high school kids couldn't keep up. Not even close.
Rich Davis
What do you think Dan? By what is your initial insight?
Steve Covino
Even though by the way, we saw a high school kid, a 17 year old kid on the Brazilian team get Aaron Judge to ground into a double play. So you see some cool things. I'm not saying that they can't have moments, but it's got to be the strength and size and speed differential in the NFL. These kids can't compete with that. Not even close.
Rich Davis
Standby. We always talk. You know, people love to do that dumb hypothetical where you want to punch them in the throat. Well they'll be like hey, do you think like Alabama or someone could compete with the Cleveland Browns? And you're like nope, you moron. They'd get smoked. 56, nothing.
Dan Byer
Yes.
Rich Davis
So what a high school team, would it. Would that be the biggest in your mind differential?
Dan Byer
It's not even close. It's football. It's not even close at all.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Dan Byer
Yes.
Steve Covino
They all get slaughtered. We're saying who has the best chance to survive? A little bit. Yeah.
Rich Davis
Where does the talent level really. Where's the hugest disparity? And I would imagine the NFL.
Dan Byer
I mean college football is a three year rule for a reason where you need to be removed from your high school class so you're at least developed. They don't want 18 and 19 year olds in Their league where you have, in basketball, you have the one and done rule now is in place for college hoops. But we've seen college play or high school players go straight to the NBA. There's AAU tournaments where you're playing, I think baseball. I mean kids can throw 80s, low 90s in high school. Baseball. Yeah, yeah.
Rich Davis
But I do think when you said the NFL, like I see kids, the
Steve Covino
physicality component that the NFL brings, that's the only reason.
Dan Byer
Yeah, that's the absolute reason why you
Rich Davis
were like, you know, just stop by a supermarket or you know, a little deli around here, Starbucks. You see a kid with his, you know, El Camino or Taft or Sherman Oaks Notre Dame high school jersey on you. Like that kid that's rocking his like football Jersey, that's like 16, 17, he would, he would be killed in the, in the NFL. But 17, 18 year old kid that throws smoke might be able to like get a couple guys to ground out or pop up. I don't know.
Dan Byer
I'm going to, I'm going to use my tag team partner on Sundays as an example. Kerry Rhodes. Kerry was an all pro safety in the NFL. Played eight years in the NFL. If you look at Kerry, when he walks in here and think about it like, Kerry would have been one of the smaller guys on the field technically because of his position.
Rich Davis
Is that wild.
Dan Byer
Carrie is not small. Carrie is not. You look at his arms like he is not small at all. This is a decade, you know, after his playing career. And to think that high school kids could compete with that. Like it's, it's not even close, dude.
Steve Covino
I would have, we would have like Division 1 kids come back and practice with us just in high school. And when they would rap, I would feel the bones in my body crunch and my spine like crack in a million pieces. Like yes, when these guys would rap me. And that was just one year into college. Imagine like the NFL because the strength is just, their strength is so much greater when they're at higher levels. There's different levels to it and I think it's exposed big time in the NFL. And did you explain why this hypothetical came?
Rich Davis
Because our buddy, our buddy Mouser, Congratulations to his son Sam.
Steve Covino
He was like an all state top five, top five in the country hockey player.
Rich Davis
And he was like, he still, he still feels like, you know, my son still compared to the pros. I wonder how this team would get just crushed by like a pro team or something like that. You know, he's watching them saying how far off they are at the best college kids in hockey versus the NHL. And he posed the hypothetical like, which, where's the biggest differential? And Danny G, Would you agree football, Football is the obvious answer. I would all agree with that.
Dan Byer
No, 100%.
Rich Davis
Is baseball number two, though? Because you're thinking like if, if Paul Skeens could throw four innings, seven strikeouts, one hit against team like the best country teams around there.
Steve Covino
We've seen a rods of the world and Griffey juniors of the world compete as young men against grown men. But so we've seen it. Yeah, but I mean, so I think baseball would be, it's neck and neck
Dan Byer
with NBA to me, because you're still dealing with the size differential. And yeah, Rich, you're saying you can maybe check up some shots, but that defense, defense on the high school player, they wouldn't even give them. They wouldn't even give them a chance to get a shot up.
Rich Davis
Picture a guy like the Joker joke. It's like you think you're, you think any young kid's going to get insight on that guy or get a shot off or anything? No, no, it's, it's like that's what I think. Football is the obvious answer. Number two becomes dicey because you go, what is number two?
Dan Byer
I think hockey is a really good answer. Just again, because of the physicality.
Rich Davis
You see how fast the team USA
Steve Covino
and Canada were skating.
Rich Davis
Like they're going to make, they're going to make high school skaters look like Adrian and Rocky skating in Rocky 1.
Steve Covino
Speaking of hypotheticals. And we'll take your feedback too at Covino and Rich at fox Sports Radio, 87799 on Fox. Pull up the live chat too, on YouTube. We're streaming live. I'll tell you what the people are saying. In high school, we scrimmage against college age and we were still alive. That's from still Owen Stockton. It can't be a physical sport. Rich. Maybe bowling Scott from Mayor says Jones in 199 hits us up. Thank you, guys. But speaking of hypotheticals, there actually happens to be a viral hypothetical story that is going on in the world of fighting. And I'll just throw this out there real quick.
Rich Davis
Is it the new 100 gorillas versus what is it? What was that one again?
Steve Covino
Women boxer. Female boxer. Clarissa Shields was on Shannon Sharp's podcast. She was actually on another podcast talking about how she thinks she could beat up Rolly Romero in a legitimate fight. Rolly Romero fights at about 140. What was the height of. She weighs 185 pounds. She's like, I'm bigger. I'm, I'm longer, I weigh a lot more. I'm a woman. Yeah. But I will be a Rolly Romero just based on my boxing skill alone. He's a small guy and that's been a hypothetical. Cause Shannon Sharp then interviewed Clarissa Shields and she doubled down and he was like, I'm sorry, you're not competing with Rolly Romero. Rolly Romero was asked about it. He goes, yeah, I think she would beat me for multiple reasons. She's big. And I don't, I don't hate women. I don't fight women.
Rich Davis
Listen, but there is a hypothetical out there.
Steve Covino
Can a professional grown ass, tough ass woman who weighs around 185 beat 140 pound champion? That last part he said, he's like,
Rich Davis
I don't hate women.
Steve Covino
That would just completely disqualify him then.
Rich Davis
He would not.
Steve Covino
Yeah, he's actually, he's not entertaining this hypothetical. But he's, he's, but he starts it
Rich Davis
with, oh, she's a lot bigger than me. But it's, it's not. And by the way, just so you know, for the record, I hate when people say it's not sexist to just have a real conversation.
Steve Covino
Well, that becomes the question because Shannon Sharp is like, yo, I'm just giving you my real opinion. You know, I'm sorry, he's the only one sort of keeping it real, that I don't care how much bigger you are as a woman, Rolly Romero would destroy you as a man. Even a little man. And he's getting a lot of flack
Rich Davis
for that, by the way, because people, people are, you know what it is? It's like, you know, we love to call names arbitrarily. You're a sexist or racist or the, you're not sexist. If you think like, like they talk about how like a high school men's basketball team could easily beat a WNBA team. And that's true, but it's hard to say. Yeah, high school for sure.
Steve Covino
I don't know, Sammy. Physicality, they beat him pretty bad.
Rich Davis
High school men's basketball game, they beat him pretty bad.
Steve Covino
No, I don't know about that.
Rich Davis
But in a fight, WNBA don't players are taller than those boys. You think a WNBA team could beat a good high school men's basketball team? Absolutely. Absolutely. Are you serious? Yes, absolutely. You're the guy. Well, I mean, I'm just thinking like those are professional players who move really fast like a high school team. You're talking about. They're men, though. I know, but they're not fully grown yet and they're not all. And some of those women tower over those younger boys.
Steve Covino
But this fight, hypothetical, they don't have the skills.
Rich Davis
They're not. They don't build the skill set yet.
Dan Byer
So a lot of college teams in women's basketball practice against men that go to school. So, like you can be a part of the team that practices against the Iowa team.
Rich Davis
That guy. What does that mean?
Steve Covino
I'm just being realistic.
Rich Davis
Come on. I think you're not. No, I think Dan, if Dan's. I mean, those, those guys that practice against the women's teams, like regular Fuller,
Dan Byer
are bigger and more developed.
Rich Davis
So I'm not saying the best high school boys team in this. In the country. Not the country. I bet you like, what's the best local team. If you told me Culver City or something, their high school team. I bet you LA is a bad
Dan Byer
city to pick because they probably win.
Rich Davis
Yeah, they got some really good. They got some good teams.
Dan Byer
I'm just saying my high school maybe that, you know, got knocked out of the first round of the playoffs.
Rich Davis
Maybe my high school team on Long island who was all like 5 foot 10 Italian guys. Yeah, they would lose. Long island, not a, not a hot spot for basketball players.
Steve Covino
A well coached team also plays a major factor here. Right.
Rich Davis
That's a good hypothetical.
Steve Covino
It is. And like I said, there is a hypothetical that's causing a lot of controversy because when people keep it, as they say, real, like, yeah, I know Clarissa Shields, she's a great woman's boxer, but she doesn't stand the chance against the Rolly Romero. If you say that, people are like, they get mad at you for being honest about it, for. Have an opinion. Yeah.
Dan Byer
Serena Williams, by the way, was on record. I think she said it to David Letterman. He asked her years back, like, what about if you were to play against the men? And she flat out said like, Andy Murray, like, used him as an example, would beat me. Six love. Six love.
Steve Covino
Yeah, she did. Yeah.
Dan Byer
You know, so she's like, it's just, they're more, it's more physical. They hit the ball harder. And this is when Serena was on top of, you know, on top of the world, by the way.
Rich Davis
There's no shame in that, dude. I mean, and I'm not gonna do the quintessential. I'm a girl, dad, I coach girl. A lot of my time is spent coaching my daughter and her teams and stuff. There's a Lot of fun and pride and everything.
Steve Covino
Married to a woman. Right.
Rich Davis
And that is true.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
But the reality is, when it comes to sport, they have to be separate, which is why there are separate leagues.
Dan Byer
Right.
Rich Davis
I mean, that's. That's the whole reason.
Steve Covino
This is also why I don't like hypotheticals all that much, because it's never going to happen until Jake Paul makes it happen.
Rich Davis
Oh, Jake Paul. Yeah. Jake Paul will make this happen. He'll give people $20 million.
Steve Covino
It's never going to happen. Mayweather's never going to fight Mike. I mean. Oh, wait, he is in April and Mike Tyson's to be here to talk about it for Tyson Trivia on a Tuesday. But, yeah, that's why I don't like hypotheticals, because. Is Rolly Romero going to fight Clarissa Shields?
Rich Davis
No.
Steve Covino
So she could talk all day about how she'd whoop his ass out of nowhere. By the way, there was no context behind that. Rolly Romero's like, how'd I get dragged into this?
Rich Davis
And can I say this just to show that I'm.
Steve Covino
And guess what? Just to be fair, no pro NFL team is going to play a high school team anytime soon.
Rich Davis
No, but just to show that I'm fair, I will promise you I can name a list of things that women are better than men at. Right. I mean, it goes both ways, but sport is something that we can't. We can't confuse. And if someone's being real, to call them sexist because they're being real.
Steve Covino
Well, if you take that. The most weenie boys versus some dominant women. Yeah, they'll win.
Rich Davis
Well, here's the thing, too. So women. Remember my wife, a lot of women, when I first started dating my wife, because my wife's a very athletic woman, I remember her joking like, yeah, I could beat you in a race. And I'm like, yeah, that's really cute. And she's like, no, I think I could beat you. And we raced and I smoked her. Because I remember being like. Because I remember being like, I know you're joking. She's like, I'm not joking. I think I could beat you in a race. And it just, you know, it's. I would say, yeah, like, if you have a high school boys basketball team where some of them can dunk, like a lot of women can't dunk. You know, who was it? Brittney Griner? She could dunk. But, like, very few women's players, even at the pro level, cannot dunk. So they have an advantage there at the very Least dude. And I'm trying to create the impossible. You know, I, I coach all girls flag football team and they play against all boys. They didn't win a game this year, but they got close. And that just shows you, like, this is the best of the best girls. And they're so good and it's so much fun to coach them. But you know, boys and girls are different whether people want to admit that or not. All right, but do we all agree that football's the hardest of all those?
Steve Covino
Yes.
Rich Davis
Yeah.
Steve Covino
That's why I said I think it's obvious.
Rich Davis
Close the. Close the book on that. Danny, two calls.
Steve Covino
I think the more physical the sport, the less advantage a woman would have just for strength reasons. That's all. But again, all hypotheticals based on our buddy Mouser in Kentucky. Son made an all state hockey team.
Rich Davis
If it's gaming stuff cove, like, if it's like darts or pool or something like that, I think a woman could equally compete, like, without a doubt. But when it comes to physical strength, that would be very difficult. That's all. Hence why that's a big issue. That's really not. All right, who do we got?
Dan Byer
Rick in beautiful Santa Barbara wants to weigh in on us.
Rich Davis
Hey, what's up, Rick? Just another day here, man. Santa Barbara, one of my favorite places. Have fun living there, man. It's hard not to like it here. I know. So I think you guys are all wrong because everything else is timed except for baseball. Oh, so you got to get three outs for nine innings. So. So you think that when it comes to the differential of, well, you know, I get you saying football, the pro. The pro team may kill the high school team. They may, they may win 120, nothing. But you're saying in three outs, an inning, nine innings, like a major league baseball team might beat a high school team, like just 100 to 2 or something.
Steve Covino
You know, this is a mercy rule like wbc.
Rich Davis
Yeah, that's a good one.
Steve Covino
All right. Timed well again, the question, the original question was which high school team stands the best chance? A high school team against a pro football team, Baseball team, hockey team. What's the differential there? And I gave you that real life hypothetical that's happening as we speak with good ones. Shields and Rolly Romero, or it's not a. It's not happening. But the debate is happening. Yeah, no doubt. All right, so we got to continue with this WBC Rosa Reyna Raleigh story and Iron Mike trivia. Giving away prizes, and we do it right here on Fox Sports Radio. Covino and rich. Now have you ever wiped with a piece of dry single toilet paper? Rich and wondered man, is this as good as it gets?

Steve Covino
The odd couple.
Rich Davis
And I don't know why I'm laughing at this so much. The quote is from Rob Parker. My heart was broken when he heard the news about canceling Magic City Night. His heart was broken.
Steve Covino
Yeah, maybe it was. I cried all night.
Rich Davis
I had tears.
Steve Covino
This is unacceptable.
Rich Davis
I love it.
Steve Covino
Rob.
Rich Davis
Rob is furious at the NBA. My heart is broken.
Steve Covino
I had a feeling that would happen.
Rich Davis
When you see Rob after our show,
Steve Covino
make sure to give him a hug.
Rich Davis
His heart's broken. All right, let's go to our pal and yours, Dan Buyer for an update. Db. What's going on, buddy?
Dan Byer
Guys is signing in the NFL. The Seahawks losing another from their super bowl win. Not a surprise, but cornerback Tariq Woolen signing with the Philadelphia Eagles on a one year deal.
Rich Davis
Well, Blankenship went to. Blankenship went to Houston. Houston. Yeah, yeah. So we saw him at the super bowl and now he's not an Eagle anymore.
Dan Byer
Yes, but. So the corner leaves Seattle for Philadelphia. Jets got a quarterback acquiring quarterback Geno Smith in a trade with the Raiders that also involves a swap of late round picks.

Rich Davis
Thank you, Dan Byer. Appreciate you, buddy. I saw a funny picture on social media. Do you see Kevin Durant was at the USA Mexico game?
Steve Covino
I'm sorry, what'd you say?
Rich Davis
Kevin Durant. They're showing.
Steve Covino
Yes.
Rich Davis
And they're joking that he was looking down at his phone the whole time on Twitter.
Steve Covino
Oh, really? Yeah.
Rich Davis
That's funny. All right, well, you know.
Dan Byer
What?
Rich Davis
What's the matter? What's wrong?
Steve Covino
We got you. Don't make Iron Mike wait. When he's ready. Oh, I'm so sorry. He's there staring me down right now. It makes me feel awkward sometimes.
Rich Davis
I like to make him wait. Iron Mike, it's time for trivia. Let's go.
Dan Byer
Mike Tyson was a maniac.
Steve Covino
I want your heart. I want to eat his children. Put an ear to this if you're a boxing brainiac. Iron Mike trivia. You can't touch me. You're not man enough.
Dan Byer
All right. FSR security walking our broke mic into the main studio.
Steve Covino
Coming here. And they make me wait. Who is that? Don Flamenco making me wait over here.
Rich Davis
I'm not Don Flamenco.
Steve Covino
Yeah, Don Flamenco never. He never stops talking over here. What's up, Don Flamenco? And by the way, if you're wondering, I beat you up, too. And any high school kid. Now I'm angry. Now it's angry. Mike Tyson, because I don't like waiting.
Rich Davis
Did you see Kavino in the lobby? That. That wasn't Piston Honda.
Steve Covino
Who that guy? I don't even know him. Doflamenko. Don't even talk to me now. Making me wait like that.
Dan Byer
What do you think about this whole Shannon Sharpe thing with Rollie and Shields?
Steve Covino
I don't know. I don't hit women. I'm staying out of it.
Dan Byer
Okay, let's meet the contestants. 25 time winner, by the way.
Steve Covino
Hold on, though. You know who I'm hitting? I got Mayweather in April. Get it? Mayweather in April. I'm bringing jokes.
Rich Davis
Mayweather.
Steve Covino
Mayweather in April. I can't wait. In the Democratic Republic of Congo. April 25. That's right, the Congo. So I am fighting.
Dan Byer
All right, Rich Davis over there. 18 time winner, Dan Byer.
Rich Davis
Hello.
Dan Byer
What up, DB and looking to win a CNR prize pack. On the studio lines, Virgil. In Phoenix was the first three.
Rich Davis
What's up, Virgil?
Steve Covino
Hey, hey, what's going on, Virgil?
Rich Davis
Hey, how's it going?
Dan Byer
Yeah, say what's up? To broke Mike.
Steve Covino
Hey, what's up? You sound like a wonderful man. It's nice to talk to you. I'm in a good mood now. No, I appreciate it.
Dan Byer
Virgil, what do you do for a living there in Arizona?
Rich Davis
I'm a pipe fitter. Oh, is that a euphemism or. You actually are a plumber. Excuse me, I didn't hear you.
Dan Byer
I think that's his real job.
Rich Davis
He's not a plumber. He's a pipe. A pipe fitter. I'm sorry. Yeah, Pipe fitter. Yeah.
Dan Byer
Union and everything.
Steve Covino
All right, here are the.
Rich Davis
Those guys make some loot. They make some loot.
Dan Byer
Here are the rules welds too, for Iron Mike Trivia. The first contestant with two correct answers is the champion. If there's a tie, we have a tiebreaker question. If your name. If you. Your name is your buzzer. But you do have to wait until all three possible answers are read. If there's two wrong ones in a row, we move on to the next question.
Steve Covino
Are you ready?
Rich Davis
Let's go.
Steve Covino
Let's get it on. Mike Tyson. Good. Good to see you guys. And as you know, I'm a changed man now. But I once bribed two officers by giving them one of my cars. Sorry, guys. It got them in trouble. But which one from my collection was it? Was it A, a Ferrari, B, a Bentley, or C, a Rolls Royce?
Rich Davis
Virgil. Virgil. Rolls Royce.
Steve Covino
Yeah, it was. I missed that car. But they were very nice guys and I'm sorry I got them in trouble.
Dan Byer
Just like that, Virgil. Halfway to a prize pack.
Steve Covino
I was a bad man.
Dan Byer
We go to round two.
Steve Covino
Round two. What was I once quoted saying about turning 60 years old? That's how old you are, right? Don flamenco?
Rich Davis
Shut up.
Steve Covino
60 years old, was it? A, I'll be 60 next year and maybe finally I'll understand this. I don't need to roar anymore. B. Turning 60 will mean that I can still shadow box, but I'll be a shadow of myself. C, There will be a huge party on my farm. And the theme of my 60th will be green peace. Get a green peace. What did I say about turning 60?
Dan Byer
Oh, Virgil. Going for the sweep here.
Steve Covino
B, B, No.
Rich Davis
Oh, Rich.
Dan Byer
Rich for the steal.
Rich Davis
Green PC no.
Dan Byer
We're both losers.
Steve Covino
I said, hey, I'll be 60 next year and maybe finally I understand this. I don't need to roar anymore. No more roaring for me. I don't know what that means, Mike.
Dan Byer
All right, Virgil's still the only one on the board. We move to round three.
Steve Covino
I don't know what it means either. Round three. How old was the great George Foreman when he became the oldest heavyweight champion? Champion with it, A, 51. B, 48. Or C, 45?
Rich Davis
Virgil.
Dan Byer
Virgil for the win.
Rich Davis
48.
Steve Covino
No. Rich.
Rich Davis
Rich.
Dan Byer
Rich for the steel.
Rich Davis
He was 45.
Dan Byer
Yes.
Steve Covino
Right. Michael Moore, 45 years old, the oldest champion.
Rich Davis
Yeah, because I remember thinking he was way older. And I'm like, oh, he was 45.
Steve Covino
He felt like he was 145.
Rich Davis
Felt like he was.
Dan Byer
We talked about that.
Steve Covino
He looked like bald Bull.
Dan Byer
Tie between Virgil and Rich. We go to round four.
Steve Covino
All right, Round four. King Hippo broke Mike Tyson. Happy to be here. I love the Covino and Rich show. Great to see you, Sam. The famous fight between Roberto Duran. By the way, he's one of my heroes. Roberto Duran is a wonderful man. The first fight between Duran and Sugar Ray Leonard happened in what city? A, New Orleans. B, Montreal. Or C, Miami?
Dan Byer
Dan Buyer.
Steve Covino
No clue.
Dan Byer
I'm gonna say C, Miami.
Steve Covino
No.
Rich Davis
Virgil.
Dan Byer
Virgil for the win.
Rich Davis
New Orleans. No. You're both losers.
Steve Covino
It was B, Montreal. The brawl in Montreal on June 20, 1980.
Dan Byer
Yeah, they made it rhyme. The brawl in Montreal.
Steve Covino
The brawl Montreal.
Rich Davis
Was Gary Carter on hands for that one.
Dan Byer
Virgil and Richard, we need to break the tie with round five.
Steve Covino
Let's go. Round five. I love this TV show. The very first episode of the HBO series 247 back in 2007 focused on which fight was it. A, Mayweather in? Hatton. The late, great Ricky Hatton. B, De La Hoya. Pacquiao. Or C, Mayweather. De La Hoya.
Rich Davis
Virgil.
Dan Byer
Virgil for the win. C. Which one? C, C. Yes.
Steve Covino
That's right. You are the winner. It was Mayweather. My opponent in April, Mayweather versus De La Hoya. That was the first 247 back in 2007.
Dan Byer
Boom. Virgil, we are gonna mail out a C and R prize pack to you there in Phoenix.
Steve Covino
That was a good show. But my favorite show is the Wizards of Waverly Place. That's my favorite show.
Rich Davis
Yeah. Big Selena Gomez face.
Steve Covino
Yes, that's right. And by the way, guys, speaking of fights, the Mexican monster, David Benavidez versus Gilberto Ramirez May 2nd. Thank you. Tune in.
Rich Davis
Thank you, Iron Mike.
Steve Covino
Thank you, guys. And don't make me wait again. I don't like it.
Rich Davis
So sorry.
Steve Covino
Thank you, guys. Congratulations.
Dan Byer
Yeah.
Steve Covino
Bye, guys.
Dan Byer
By the way, congrats, Virgil.
Steve Covino
Bye, guys. Bye, Virgil.
Rich Davis
Speaking of. Bye, guys, speaking of Selena Gomez, he said Wizards of Waverly Place. That was her show, right? I think. Pretty sure.
Steve Covino
I don't even know that show, but Mike says it's good.
Rich Davis
Did you guys see Selena Gomez licking her husband Benny Blanco's feet on their podcast?
Steve Covino
What, are you jealous or something?
Dan Byer
No.
Steve Covino
What about it?
Rich Davis
I'm just saying, how much would it take if I said picture? Tell me. An NBA guy with, like, the most busted field. Like, LeBron.
Steve Covino
LeBron James.
Rich Davis
Like, if I said, LeBron, you got to lick LeBron's toes, I'll give you $1,000.
Steve Covino
No, not happening.
Rich Davis
10,000.
Steve Covino
Can't be bought.
Rich Davis
If I said 20 grand.
Steve Covino
No, thanks.
Rich Davis
You're telling me you're looking at me
Steve Covino
so I could be the, like, so everybody could talk about that? No, thanks.
Dan Byer
I'll do it. For a house, that's 3.7 million.
Rich Davis
But you're telling me for real. I was, Sam. If I said $50,000. You lick LeBron's toes after a shower? No, after a game. I'd have to think about that.
Steve Covino
Hold on. You're the one with the dumb hypotheticals.
Rich Davis
What would it take for you to lick his toes? You guys are all full of. What did Joe Biden say? Malarkey.
Steve Covino
I think Rich just wanted to find any reason to lick LeBron's to.
Rich Davis
I think you're all full of it. If I said, Here's $50,000, I think everyone's got a price, and I think yours is a lot lower than you say, can I be anonymous and do it?
Steve Covino
And then they won't know who did it, right? You know, I'd embarrass my family, have my dignity intact. My dad would be. What are you doing, man, disgracing my family like that?
Dan Byer
Yeah, rich, these days, 50 GS doesn't even get you a car. Dad.
Rich Davis
I bought you a Jet Ski.
Steve Covino
Yeah, no, thanks, bro. Pride, dignity, standby. Have some integrity. How about that?
Rich Davis
Damn buyer. Will you entertain this ridiculous thought? Don't you think all these guys would do it for the money?
Dan Byer
Maybe when push came to shove, if
Rich Davis
I came in here with a suitcase and it had $50,000, like a deal or no deal, like, silver suitcase, like, I'm Howie Mandel.
Steve Covino
You like your suitcase?
Rich Davis
I like my suitcase. Barron Trump style. I Like my suitcase.
Steve Covino
I think, you know, if you're desperate for money. Yeah, you do it. I'll do something. I'll wait tables, bro.
Rich Davis
What if you got kids that are going to college, you have mortgage payments. Why are you acting like licking someone's foot for $50,000 is like, too better than that?
Steve Covino
And I think most people should.
Rich Davis
So you rather wait tables for six months?
Steve Covino
I won't even lick my girlfriend's foot. Get out of my face.
Rich Davis
No way.
Steve Covino
With your stink ass foot. No, thanks.
Rich Davis
You wouldn't lick your girlfriend's foot if you want. If she wanted it.
Steve Covino
No.
Rich Davis
You wouldn't lick your girlfriend's foot if she wanted.
Steve Covino
How about this, Rich? Let me think about it. Because Dan Byer has breaking news.
Rich Davis
Oh, someone's gonna lick LeBron's feet.
Dan Byer
Breaking news from Fox Sports Guy. 70, 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey suffered a finger injury on Saturday. And now ESPN is reporting that Maxey's going to miss the next three weeks because of a tendon injury in that right pinky finger. The Sixers right now with no Joel Embiid or Paul George, are in the eighth spot in the East. They're currently a game and a half back of the sixth spot held by Orlando at this point. Miami's also a game and a half up in the seventh spot. But the Sixers right now, if they want to avoid the playing tournament, are going to have to play well without Tyrese Maxey and their other stars.
Rich Davis
Well, you know what? The. You know what? This year is a. The only team that's under 500 is currently the 10 seed Charlotte. That would be playing in the play in game.
Steve Covino
But.
Rich Davis
And in the Western conference, Portland's the 10 seed. They're under 500. That's why I think there's too many teams, I don't think, you know, call me old fashioned, call me old school. I don't think a team under.500 should. Should be in playoff consideration. I mean, the NFL, maybe once in a blue moon, you get a 500 team or something. But to me, if a team after 82 games is under 500, you have no business playing any further.
Dan Byer
Maybe I do think that this sheds a light on what the playing tournament actually is, because I do consider it the playoffs. I feel that's an expansion of the playoffs, and I think that this sort of deal makes it look like it isn't the playoffs. And so you're trying to avoid that.
Rich Davis
Yeah, you don't want to play the playing game. So getting the top one of the top six seeds. Right.
Dan Byer
Or, you know, and I think, honestly, the NBA would be fine if, if the Hornets. Let's say the Hornets won both their games and ended up facing Boston or Detroit. I think they'd be fine with that because they think that those teams would beat them. They wouldn't want necessarily the toughest competition. But I get what you're saying, Rich.
Rich Davis
Yeah. Listen, again, I know there's some people that just like more teams, more opportunities. It just, to me, if you're under.500, like in baseball, they do it. I think they do it right where the worst wild card historically has what, maybe 86 wins, 87 wins. And that's a decent team, right?
Dan Byer
Yeah. And look at the. The east standings right now. It's basically by default. I mean, the Bucks are trying, but they're the 11th spot. But otherwise, it's just the 10 teams that actually wanted to make the playoffs.
Rich Davis
10 teams and Milwaukee, the 10 teams that aren't awful, essentially.
Dan Byer
Yeah. Yeah. And there's four teams that probably had no interest whatsoever. I don't think Washington or Indiana had any reservations about making the postseason. So, yeah, that's what you get.
Rich Davis
Brooklyn, Washington and Indiana all have under 20 wins.
Dan Byer
Correct.
Rich Davis
And Chicago is 12 games under.500. So there you go. Thank you, D.B. we got more Kavin on Rich, and we will get to the bottom of this A Rosarena, Cal, Raleigh debacle.
Dan Byer
What about your suitcase question?
Steve Covino
Yeah. What do you think about licking feet? You already forgot that one.
Rich Davis
I like my suitcase. You like a bird brain.
Steve Covino
What about your suitcase full of money? I look, Rich has a suitcase full of money. He wants to know if you lick LeBron's foot.
Rich Davis
And I bet you, I bet you most people listening would do it for ten grand.
Steve Covino
And I'll give you my answer, and I have a reason as to why. I'll tell you to stick it.
Rich Davis
Bunch of broke B otches and everyone tell you why you won't do it. Yes, you will.
Steve Covino
I'll tell you why I won't, and
Rich Davis
we'll talk about it next. My father would be disgraced.
Steve Covino

Steve Covino
answer your question about would I take a suitcase of money to lick LeBron's foot? For me, I'm not that desperate for money. I don't need that money. I'm not saying I'm Daddy Stacks because I'm not. They pay me in meatballs. That's not my point. But I have something called pride. I do. I have self worth. I do. I have dignity. I try to keep that and I don't want to, you know, embarrass my father's name. But the real reason is the power trip you sit on when you pull these hypotheticals. It's about like, you think you own me because you got more money so you could force me to do things that are against my will, I don't like the feeling of that. It's not ego. It's. It's. I stand for something. I'm not going to let you boss me around as if you own me. I don't like the fee. Yeah, but whatever you want. I don't like the feeling of you thinking you could buy me to do whatever you want me to do. I'm not your clown. I'm not your monkey. So if peasants dance. So if it's against something that I don't feel comfortable.
Rich Davis
So you'll tell me.
Steve Covino
If you're saying, I will give you a million dollars to host a radio show, I'd be like, yeah, I love hosting a radio show. I'll do that. But if you tell me to do something to embarrass me.
Rich Davis
But that's the whole point. If you're Mr. Beast Billionaire type, and you're like, all
Steve Covino
right, if you're really embarrassed for money, I think you don't stand for anything. I know.
Rich Davis
Or you're just okay with taking a easy dollar. Okay.
Steve Covino
But then you're okay with it. I'm not. And it's that feeling, call it whatever you want. Stops me, prevents me from moving forward.
Rich Davis
How much you think it's. What would it cost to put in a new kitchen in your house?
Steve Covino
Maybe it depends, you know, everybody's got a different budget. Everyone has different tastes. Could be, what, 100 G's?
Rich Davis
Could be 50. One grand.
Steve Covino
Could be 50.
Rich Davis
So if I said Kavino, a state of the art, brand new kitchen in
Steve Covino
your house, even though a bathroom costs 50 GS here in LA. So it's all right.
Rich Davis
Hey, we're gonna read. We're gonna redo your kitchen. New countertops, new everything. Cabinets, the whole works. Like, new stainless steel appliances. New kitchen. Yeah. Just lick LeBron's toes for a second. You'd be like, no, I stand for something.
Steve Covino
Yeah. Cause I work hard. I'll take more pride knowing that I paid for that and got it done. I'm desperate like that. And you can't buy me because you think you're. It's a power trip. Like, I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna feed to your power trip. I'm better than that.
Rich Davis
Hey, your daughter's gonna go to college,
Steve Covino
find a guy like you and you and you get off on it.
Rich Davis
Your daughter is going to college in two years.
Steve Covino
Yeah, I'm working hard to make that happen.
Rich Davis
Pay for all of her college. All you have to do is lick Aaron Judge's big ass feet.
Steve Covino
No thanks. But I know that you would. And I guess that makes you better than me. Yeah. So there you go. What would you do at Rich's giant suitcase of money? Guys?
Rich Davis
My suitcase.
Steve Covino
Let us know. I'd shake your hand, but I'm gonna pull a Cal Raleigh.
Rich Davis
All right, well, maybe we'll talk about that tomorrow. We never have enough time.
Steve Covino
No handshakes because I don't like your hypothetical.
Rich Davis
We'll see you guys tomorrow. Have a great. What day is today? Tuesday. Or even dare you baby.
Steve Covino
See you in the promised land. Usa. Usa. Usa. This is an I heart podcast. Guaranteed human.
Episode: C&R - Pros Vs. Prep & LeBron's Golden Toes
Date: March 11, 2026
Podcast Network: iHeartPodcasts and Dan Patrick Podcast Network
In this light-hearted and energetic episode, Steve Covino, Rich Davis, Dan Byer, and their crew take on a series of lively sports hypotheticals, debate gender and physicality in sports, discuss the pride-versus-price dilemma in outrageous challenges, and sprinkle in their trademark humor and banter. Notably, the show dives deep into the classic ‘pros vs. preps’ debate—could high school teams compete with professionals in different sports—and riffs on the viral topic of what price it would take to lick LeBron James’ toes. The crew also hosts their recurring “Iron Mike Trivia,” blending boxing nostalgia with listener participation.

[11:30–18:12]
[35:27–45:41]
[18:52–19:48]
[28:53–34:44]
[38:17–40:21]
Throughout the episode, Covino and Rich maintain a fun, teasing, and sometimes irreverent style that melds sports-talk with the humor and relatability of friends bullshitting at a bar. While much of the content is built from hypotheticals, the debates scratch at real issues of gender, integrity, and the competitive realities of elite athletics. Classics like “Iron Mike Trivia” add nostalgia and interactive fun, and the show closes with a tongue-in-cheek but surprisingly deep musing on what we’ll do for pride—or a price.
Ideal For:
Fans of sports talk radio that mixes real analysis with spirited banter, and those who enjoy shows that blend sports, pop culture, and "would-you-rather" style hypotheticals.
