[Rich Davis]

Yesterday was a big, easy day for gamblers. It really was. It was. I guarantee you. Yesterday, Vegas lost. Cavino and I are in a pool with some of our old pals from Sirius XM and you have to do a 4 for 4 parlay with the point spread. There's a couple hundred people. There are weeks where no one out of like a hundred or so people can hit four out of four. It's not easy. A four leg parlay, not easy at all. This week I think I was one of like 20 people that hit it because I think again, I think it was a very easy gambling week. Nothing crazy happened. Teams covered small point spreads. It was, it was, it was a good one.

[Steve Covino]

Heartbreaker though, with the Jets. Broncos.

[Rich Davis]

Giants. Broncos.

[Steve Covino]

I mean, Giants. Bronco.

[Rich Davis]

Our jets are still on sets.

Cavino Enrich now, there was other observations I made Rich. Like Patrick Mahomes acting abilities. That was a big headline over the weekend.

[Rich Davis]

Goodness, is he great or what? Patrick Mahomes, this never effing works.

[Steve Covino]

He, yeah, he unexpectedly ran a play that resulted in the first down. And then he was asked about his acting skills and he's like, I think my work in estate farm commercials has paid off.

[Rich Davis]

And he's like, good one.

[Steve Covino]

And you know, he did a great job with that. But the Chiefs are also proving that they're going to be one of the usual suspects.

[Danny G]

We've been saying it every week.

[Rich Davis]

I hate that I when they were zero.

[Steve Covino]

Having a season, dude, he's having a season.

[Rich Davis]

I hate when they were.02 that I've believed that. Ooh, maybe they're going to hit some road bumps. Yeah, they did. And then now it's over. And Mahomes actually has been carrying my Dan Beyer guillotine league. Oh, the guy's put up great numbers. When, when I drafted Mahomes, there were some people that were like, yeah, Rich, he's not the Mahomes of years ago and he's having a really good statistical.

[Steve Covino]

Season as well as a comeback season, but he's still got that magic in him.

[Rich Davis]

A statistical comeback season.

[Steve Covino]

Right.

[Rich Davis]

Dan Byer, you're the fantasy guy.

[Dan Beyer]

Absolutely. The Defense isn't as good as it once was for Kansas City, which has forced them to score a few more points, and they really don't have a running game right now, or at least a consistent one. So it's been a lot of Mahomes lately.

[Steve Covino]

It really has been. And here's what he said about his State Farm acting chops.

[Rich Davis]

I think it comes from all my State Farm commercials. No, no, no, I'm joking. The. Honestly, when he went up to the line of scrimmage, it's his Dan Marino moment. Meaning. Remember when Dan Marino famously did the fake spike and then it was like, ooh, no one ever thought to do that before Mahomes, if you don't know what we're talking about, because I can't expect everyone saw every game. You know, when it's fourth and short yardage, sometimes a team goes up to the line of scrimmage and after the first hard count, you realize, oh, they're not going to snap the ball. They're trying to get the defense trying to drop them off.

[Steve Covino]

Size. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

And it was one of those, like, and hurt. Huh? And. And then he audibly hears, and you get Tony Romo, and everyone hears him say, this never effing works. And then just when you think he's about to call the playoff or take the five yard delay a game, whatever.

[Steve Covino]

If you listen calls, he goes psych.

[Rich Davis]

Then he snaps the ball and they. They run for a first down. It was really. I'm. I'm shocked it took this long for someone to do the fake.

[Steve Covino]

He didn't say hike. He went psych.

[Danny G]

Mahomes also chuckled like that when they asked him about the chop block on Max Crosby's knees.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, stop.

[Rich Davis]

So did you see that?

[Danny G]

And then that. Let's go to the rules analyst. Oh, well, technically, that is legal.

[Rich Davis]

Danny, can I tell you something? Tom Brady should call you and tell you how great of a fan you are for the Raiders, you know, the Davis family.

[Danny G]

Oh, he shouldn't talk to me right.

[Rich Davis]

Now, I tell you, because I thought this yesterday before you got to our house, we were looking at, you know, watching all the highlights, and I turned to Sam and Covino and I said, you know, Danny G. Is such a great Raiders fan that every week he comes in and tries to find something positive. Like, you know, guys, if it wasn't for the, you know, a couple offensive linemen, you know, and then Genti will get started. Like, you're so positive when your team is junk.

[Danny G]

Genti did get started a few weeks ago. That wasn't enough to do squad.

[Rich Davis]

But I'm saying, like, you are sad.

[Danny G]

Aside from Week one and then blowing the end of that Chicago game there, there's been times where they looked decent and most of the season so far they have looked God awful. But you got to wonder what's going on with Pete Carroll and Chip Kelly. There's rumors that Chip Kelly is not liked in that locker room. And so far that's been a lot of money spent and not spent well on Chip Kelly.

[Steve Covino]

I heard Rob Parker going berserk on your team. Man, he was.

[Danny G]

I heard Rob Parker going berserk on Shohei Ohtani last Friday.

[Steve Covino]

That's true. So maybe even after the first home run.

[Rich Davis]

Danny G. If people don't know. I knew that. If people don't know. Danny G. He's a big Dodgers and Raiders guy. And you can't be having more of a split personality right now. One team, one of your teams is going to probably easily win the World Series and your other team may win three games all year.

[Danny G]

Yeah. I mean, like a lot of Raider fans, I would hope and pray that someday Mark Davis is not the owner of the team that has not been working out well. He's not his dad. What's going wrong by any means. You know, there's been so many rebuilds. There's been so many half rebuilds and stops and starts and new coaches and new systems and Raiders besides Graham, the defensive coordinator, that nothing consistent really has been in that building. The only thing you could hope for is maybe Tom Brady will have some influence to do a true rebuild. But yeah, I just.

[Rich Davis]

I just wonder.

[Danny G]

Not a lot of hope.

[Rich Davis]

What I'm not seeing. Db, you analyze this stuff every week, being a big fantasy guy, and it's not all about numbers and points. But what are the Raiders? Is it they haven't got their quarterback? Is it the. Is it the frequent changes in coaching? Coaching that like they. They're one of the few teams that hasn't effectively at least done a rebuild while they made the postseason and then tuckered out. Like even Miami for a second was like, oh, then they fell off again. But the Raiders just can't get it together.

[Dan Beyer]

I thought that Pete Carroll was brought in to try to change the attitude of the Raiders, and I think they've tried that a bunch of different ways, whether it be bringing in the Patriot way with Josh McDaniels and Dave Zigler at one point. Then they bring in Tom Telesco. They let him go after one year, and now in a now 74 year old Pete Carroll. So if he hasn't changed the culture of the locker room, it's not like Pete Carroll's going to coach their eight years. That's not going to happen. You needed it to be more immediate.

[Rich Davis]

And remember Antonio Pierce for a minute was like, oh man, they got their guy internally. And then that was like a short lived experiment.

[Danny G]

Cigars and gave him energy. They just feel cursed in a way because Gruden, right when he started getting things rolling, then the whole email thing and all that, I think that's where.

[Steve Covino]

Things started to unravel. After that, they just lost all hope.

[Danny G]

It seems like I would be gangster if I was Mark Davis. I would clean house and rehire Jon.

[Steve Covino]

Gruden and shake it up, shake it up.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, if I was jock, if I was Mark Davis, I'd get a haircut first, then do all the stuff.

[Danny G]

Hey, Rich, put some gel, just put some styling gel.

[Steve Covino]

Take you back to Friday. We were talking about your big TV game of the week and you were torn between the Giants and Broncos and the Colts and the Chargers. Two good games. But the takeaway is the Chargers. I know you're such a uniform guy. A lot of memes over the weekend about they look like the Savannah Bananas.

[Rich Davis]

Even Adam Shine said that on cbs. Adam Shine, the Savannah Bananas.

[Steve Covino]

I mean, the Chargers, I saw a lot of memes about that. And you know, what are our thoughts now about the calls? Are we just going to accept, much like the Pats, that they're just the solid team this year?

[Rich Davis]

Now listen, every few years, guys, we got to remember there's a changeover in who's good and it's not. You know, there's a couple teams that remain in the mix, but why is it crazy to think a team rebuilt and now they're good? Colts look good.

[Steve Covino]

Mac Jones, Daniel Jones looking great this year, man. So those are our takeaways. I did have one more observation too. Aside from the banana looking uniforms, in the world of fighting, did you see Paulie Malinagi made a return to the ring?

[Rich Davis]

No.

[Steve Covino]

But in a bare knuckle brawl. Now, even as a fight fan, like, I'll watch the highlights, but there's not a whole lot of intrigue there for me when it comes to a bare knuckle brawl. At least not at the moment. Right. Like, I'm not into that. Really. You got to see how mangled his face was after a victory in his comeback win. Paulie the Magic Man Malina, you got to see how mangled he was anything won the fight. That's the crazy part about it. So that also happened over the weekend. I'm just throwing that out there. As a fight fan, man, you might see some highlights on your social media about that. And those are our observations, and we're going to have a lot more tomorrow because there's two great games tonight and a game seven that we got to talk about.

[Rich Davis]

John in Minnesota, one last call about some NFL stuff now. What's up, bud? Johnny.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, Johnny, you're on Minnesota. Can you hear me? Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

What's up, man? Hey, how you guys doing, man? I love you. Rich and Gravino. What's up, bud?

[Steve Covino]

Thank you, buddy.

[Danny G]

I mean, that might have been one.

[Rich Davis]

Name at all, but what's up? Oh, okay. I have one worst of the weekend and one best of the weekend.

[Steve Covino]

Okay.

[Rich Davis]

It was my birthday on Friday. The Gophers won. Nebraska number 25. But the Vikings went into the red zone six times and only scored one touchdown. If they would have scored one more, we would have won. Yeah, I mean, that's. That's going to be the holdup of what. I mean, there are teams that you wonder, like, why they ever look at, like, the. The team stats on, like an app or something, and you're like, well, they had a lot of yards. They converted third downs at a decent rate. You know, if you can't push the ball in at all in the red zone, you're never going to win. Right. It's like I always look at two things, and it's red zone conversions and time of possession. Those things. And turnovers. Turnovers, time of possession, and red zone execution. Those three things could tell the whole story.

[Steve Covino]

If you.

[Rich Davis]

If you don't. If you didn't watch the game, just look at that and that'll tell you.

[Danny G]

Don't bury the lead. Was that a Gopher sound effect or a squirrel? That sample?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. Whatever your imagination wants. I'm not sure.

[Dan Beyer]

Good one.

[Steve Covino]

But Jalen hurts put up some big numbers. Speaking of the numbers and what you look at, 326 yards, three touchdowns. So Eagles over the Vikings. And then, like we said tonight, lots of great stuff to get to. Now, Bear secret. Would you say Bear in a row for the Bears? So, yeah, these are things we need to take note of for sure. Four in a row for the Bears. Looks like they're turning things around.

[Rich Davis]

And Mike, who runs this place, is a Panthers fan, so I have to shout out his winning streak. Carolina Panthers. Hey, you know, they're. As he said during the break with if the Bucks lose tonight to the.

[Danny G]

Lions, that was a dynamic 13 to 6 victory.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, the Panther Panthers are only a game behind. Think about that. If the Panthers win tonight, well, the.

[Steve Covino]

Pam.

[Rich Davis]

Sorry. If the Bucks lose tonight, they're 4 and 3. The Bucks will be 5 and 2.

[Steve Covino]

They're.

[Rich Davis]

They're right there. Who would have thought that, right? I mean, good for the. Good for the Panthers. I know they're not explosive, great wins, but, you know, they're not awful.

[Steve Covino]

Well, you got two. Is that fair? Big games tonight. We'll be talking about that tomorrow. And of course, a game seven. Now, it's one of the biggest cliches, but it's also very true that when it comes to sports, two best words in sports are game seven. And everybody says it. And if you listen to sports talk radio or you and your buddies are chopping it up or you're at the barbershop, you hear things like that. Two best words in sports. Game seven. It's so. It's so. I heard Chris Perfect say it today in an update and I knew it was coming and. Because, you know, it's just something that everybody says, but it's true.

[Rich Davis]

Best words, guys.

[Steve Covino]

Dude, we said it amongst each other hanging out yesterday.

[Danny G]

He didn't say free food were the two best words.

[Steve Covino]

No, hey, but you know what? I'm glad you said that. Free food. Because, hey, we're all pumped about the game tonight, especially if you don't have a team playing. You're just watching for fun, man. It gives us more to talk about and something to watch because it's do or die. Every little pitch, every. Every call, every hit, every pitch taken is. Is a big moment tonight and under the microscope because everything counts. Everything matters because it's do or die. It's for all the Tostitos as we say game seven. But when it comes to the best two words, can we think of any other two words that compare but a PG13 variation here for Fox Sports Radio?

[Rich Davis]

You're going to keep it clean.

[Steve Covino]

Like you said, Free food. Yo, bro, those are two great words.

[Rich Davis]

For any open, open bar.

[Steve Covino]

Because I'll get out of my seat, I'm like, where? What's up? Where. Where are we at? Free food. All right, dude, that gets everybody pumped.

[Danny G]

Yep.

[Steve Covino]

You know, so not just perfect, everybody. So let's get the phones going before we get into last one standing and all the other fun we have today and the prizes and everything else. Game seven tonight, are there two other best words that come to mind? But again, without being Rated R and X.

[Rich Davis]

When my wife and I actually get away from the kids, like when those few times a year we actually take a little getaway. Adults only.

[Steve Covino]

You love that, huh?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, nothing bothers me more than other people's kids when I'm on vacation.

[Steve Covino]

That's so funny. If I'm escaping parent, you, you appreciate kids. You know, like I love kids.

[Rich Davis]

I got K. When I am not with my own kids and coaching and doing things at the school when I'm. When I'm not in that mode. Get your stupid kids away from me.

[Steve Covino]

I'm with you on vacations because you. That's what I don't get.

[Rich Davis]

No kids.

[Steve Covino]

Like, how do the little kids ever get to know their family members if you don't want them at their party? Kid was sliding around the dance floor and that's the only time I see uncle so and so.

[Rich Davis]

Anyway, no kids at weddings.

[Steve Covino]

I can't get down with the wedding one. But the vacation, when I get it, no kids.

[Rich Davis]

Kids will ruin a wedding.

[Steve Covino]

I mean, for a guy who has two kids, it's pretty, pretty harsh. She's so anti kid. Yeah, I know.

[Rich Davis]

So anti kid.

[Steve Covino]

Sounds like a cherry. Yeah, sounds a little jerky. I think it's a cultural thing and that's my polite way of saying it. I really do. Because in my family, like if someone told my dad that he couldn't bring his kids, you know what he would say?

[Rich Davis]

Well, f you, I ain't going.

[Steve Covino]

Swear to God, my dad would be offended by that. Mr. Covino, you could. You're invited, but you can't bring your kids. My dad would be like, well, who.

[Rich Davis]

Do you think you are?

[Steve Covino]

I guess I ain't going then.

[Rich Davis]

Well, then don't invite them.

[Steve Covino]

Don't go, hey. And he wouldn't believe me. I'm a guy. Your kids are not wanting.

[Rich Davis]

I'm a guy.

[Steve Covino]

It's a very cultural thing.

[Rich Davis]

I'm coaching four days a week. I'm involved in the school, but the.

[Steve Covino]

Kids are not part of the family that they can't come to the wedding.

[Rich Davis]

But I don't want a kid at a wedding. You're dancing and drinking and having fun. You want a little kids there, get out of here.

[Steve Covino]

Family.

[Rich Davis]

You're on vacation. You try to have hotel sex, lay on the beach and do everything. You want your kids around, get your kids out of there.

[Steve Covino]

Vacation. That's what grandma's for. I think that's different. That's why they separate certain resorts. Like, that's the adults only side. That's the family side, I'm with you. I'm okay with that. When you say vacation stuff, and if I don't say family stuff, I'm like.

[Rich Davis]

Man, what the hell?

[Steve Covino]

What the hell good is family if the kids can't be involved?

[Rich Davis]

If my wife and I are going away for a couple days, Mexico, Aruba, Dominican Republic. We're going somewhere. And we're finally getting a break from our own 5 and 8 year old. Do you think I want to see your stupid kids?

[Steve Covino]

No kids, according to this guy. This guy claims he's dad of the year. He says no kids or I'll kick him out. Yeah, okay, I got one.

[Rich Davis]

If you're a scandalous guy, I'm with.

[Steve Covino]

You on free food. I think that's my favorite one.

[Rich Davis]

If you're a scandalous guy, what if a woman said, I'm discreet?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. Or.

[Danny G]

Or Richie says in your ear, I'm.

[Steve Covino]

Down, I'm down, I'm down, I'm discreet. That's a good. All right, so what, two words are music to your ears? What two words compare to game seven? If everybody loves to say game seven, the best two words in sports, what are the other best two words in life? Let's get the phones going. 877-99-NOX. 87799 on FOX. And of course, at Covino and Rich.

[Rich Davis]

At Fox Sports Radio, two words, trying to think. Oh, what do you got, Sam?

[Steve Covino]

Open bar.

[Rich Davis]

Open bar. Yeah, open bar.

[Steve Covino]

That's a good one.

[Rich Davis]

I said that when we started. Oh, you did. You did say that, yeah. Open bar, free food, I'm discreet, no kids. What else is what? Are there any of the two. Two word doozies?

[Dan Beyer]

I don't know if it's been said, but open bar.

[Rich Davis]

Good one, Danny. Thanks.

[Steve Covino]

What about open bar?

[Rich Davis]

Let's see. Oh, wait, Rich, you said that. Oh, Dan, you said that.

[Dan Beyer]

I was gonna say open late, like the fast food sort of thing. Like, I think that that's like, all right.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, okay. Open late. I like that. Because closing soon sucks. Like, oh, how about day off?

[Rich Davis]

Day off.

[Steve Covino]

That's another good one. Yeah. So this is why we get you involved. Fox Sports Radio Nation.

[Rich Davis]

Hey.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I like that. Day off. Give it to me. I am never complaining about it. You know what?

[Rich Davis]

If you have others, we'll take your feedback next. Plus, we're going to play the game that sweeps the nation every Monday. Camino gets so stressed. I love it. I love how he blanks sometimes and then gets mad at himself.

[Steve Covino]

You act like you don't justify every Time you wrong. You're like the least self aware person I ever met. I'm the biggest justifying guy. You got two more wins to me and you're out here like you're Dan Beyer. You're a nobody from nowhere, Bill. Calling me out. You're out of your mind. Listen, back at your justification. Every week at this game, at least I own the fact that I stink. You think you're great and you stink. I.

[Rich Davis]

Guys, I am going to whoop your ass and we're going to play this game next.

[Steve Covino]

Says who? The three times more that you beat.

[Rich Davis]

Me in this game? Four in about ten minutes.

[Danny G]

Okay? Covino's on a two game winning streak.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, let's go, big mouth justification.

[Dan Beyer]

You know what? I'll bow out if you guys want to do a showdown with each other.

[Steve Covino]

No, because if we don't beat you, Dan.

[Dan Beyer]

All right.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, well, all right.

[Steve Covino]

Beating Rich gives me no credibility in.

[Rich Davis]

The streets at all. I try to clear the way for you beating Rich.

[Steve Covino]

You know what that gives me? A low five. Beating you is something worth bragging.

[Rich Davis]

Whenever I got through the window I tried to pick him up and his body was stiff. I'm Ben Westoff and this is the Peacemaker, a true crime podcast investigating a string of mysterious deaths at a prestigious Missouri university and the fraternity brother at the center of it all. A few years back, two fraternity brothers died by suicide just weeks apart in shockingly similar ways. Both were discovered by the same student, Brandon Grossheim. I laid him down and pursued while I tilted his head and proceeded to get mouth to mouth in cpr. At first people gave Brandon the benefit of the doubt, but when three more acquaintances died the following year, the tide turned. The lawsuit says Grosseim was one of the last people to see each victim before their deaths. Was he profoundly unlucky or was something much darker at play?

[Sad Oligarch Podcast Host]

The Rich Russians Falling out of Windows podcast is back. Sad Oligarch Season 2 Since we left you in 2023 after season one, many politically motivated Russian millionaires have continued to die in suspicious circumstances. We dig deeper into these odd deaths, which include everything from mushroom poisoning and mysterious heart attacks to window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation. One thing we have found since we started back in 2022 is the information on the suspicious deaths has become much harder to find. Not just that, it seems as if state controlled media in Russia is being utilized to purposely confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out. As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird. Listen to Sad Oligarch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Steve Covino]

I'm getting feedback on the two best words other than Game 7. And I'm seeing some feedback on social media. Wanna starbs? That must be a weenie. A one. You wanna starbs? How about this? And I agree with this one. This is from Carl. Let's reschedule. I'm like, yes.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, those are great.

[Steve Covino]

I'd rather hear let's cancel, but let's reschedule is always good.

You ever win?

[Steve Covino]

I'm like, yeah, you ever win?

[Rich Davis]

Cancel Plan roulette.

[Steve Covino]

Yes.

Where you're like. You're so close to calling the person to be like, hey, listen, like, yo, maybe we could do it another time. And they beat you to it. And you're like, oh, yeah.

[Steve Covino]

But you play it off like, oh, I was so ready to hang.

[Rich Davis]

I was so pumped.

[Steve Covino]

So we're gonna get to your phone calls about the best two words other than game seven right after we get into the game that's sweeping the nation. The game that's dividing this show, the game called last One standing. You have five seconds to battle for your sports trivia.

Torturous. I have four categories ready to go if needed. A tiebreaker. Each contestant gets five seconds to stay alive in the round. If you run out of time or answer incorrectly, IO Sam will take you out with his famous buzzer.

No, you wouldn't.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

All right, we're gonna go to the studio line, see who's playing for a CNR Nerf football Josh in Jackson, Tennessee.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, good.

[Danny G]

I bombs times three. There have been 13 games in MLB postseason history where a player hit three home runs.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, geez.

[Steve Covino]

Players with three home runs. The question again.

[Danny G]

Okay, so There have been 13 games in MLB postseason history where a player hit three home runs.

I don't even know.

[Danny G]

You're confused with the question.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I just.

[Rich Davis]

I don't remember guys hitting three home runs in a game, in the world, in the playoffs.

[Danny G]

Say the obvious one. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

I mean.

[Steve Covino]

Okay, yeah. All right, great.

[Dan Beyer]

Thanks, Danny. This game isn't rigged at all.

[Rich Davis]

Gifted him that one.

[Dan Beyer]

Here's 20 seconds, Rich. And here's an answer. Okay.

[Steve Covino]

I mean, he's gonna be out the next round.

[Dan Beyer]

Dan, two answers. Reggie Jackson and Shohei Ohtani. So I am out of luck if we go with three home runs. How about this?

[Rich Davis]

Is Chipper Jones on the list?

[Dan Beyer]

Scott Spezio.

[Rich Davis]

No, he didn't.

[Dan Beyer]

He didn't. But I'm just doing it out of protest for this.

[Steve Covino]

But he never.

[Rich Davis]

Soul patch. Yes.

[Danny G]

Okay, Sam, stop the timer. Let's move to the fourth category. We'll throw that category out.

[Dan Beyer]

I hope the listener understands like the.

[Rich Davis]

The.

[Dan Beyer]

The rule breaking in this game.

[Steve Covino]

If I said Jose Altuve, would I win?

[Rich Davis]

Is there.

[Steve Covino]

It's got to be an Astro in there now. Jose Altuve is on the list.

[Danny G]

We'll throw that out. We'll go to the fourth category.

[Rich Davis]

Would you like to know the people on this list? Albert Pujols is on the list. Is on the list. Bs.

[Steve Covino]

I would have won.

[Rich Davis]

Babe Ruth did it twice. Don't blame me.

[Dan Beyer]

Blame these two in cahoots over here.

[Danny G]

This is turning into Ben Maller and Eddie Garcia fighting over every game.

[Steve Covino]

I was gonna say Altuve.

[Rich Davis]

I would have won that round.

[Steve Covino]

I would have won the game.

[Dan Beyer]

I want the record to show Rich didn't have an answer.

[Steve Covino]

Right.

[Dan Beyer]

And Danny goes. Three, two, one. Come on, come on.

[Danny G]

No.

[Steve Covino]

Come on.

[Dan Beyer]

The most obvious answer, the one that just happened Friday. The one that we just started the.

[Steve Covino]

Show with back when I made. Made exceptions. No way I would have said Altuve. I won that. I appeal.

[Danny G]

Oh, man. I appeal.

[Rich Davis]

You know what? Let's do the other. How many times has Covino been screwed over by these games the last couple weeks? I gotta sit next to this bonus.

[Danny G]

Twice in a row.

[Rich Davis]

All right, how about we do damn sports Crybaby. The RBI question from last week, Right? Vampires update and then we'll move on.

[Danny G]

Two weeks ago and he got the point db.

[Dan Beyer]

Yo, were we doing saber statin metrics.

[Rich Davis]

On that or not?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, there's no integrity in this game anymore.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, geez. All right, Dan Byer, give us an update. Well, we'll get the conclusion of this game in a minute.

[Rich Davis]

I want to make sure that I make the right decision and I don't want to make Raz decisions either.

[Dan Beyer]

Turrod Taylor replaced Justin Fields at halftime of yesterday's loss to Carolina. 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy going to follow a similar practice regimen this week.

What's up everybody? This is Snax from the Trap Nerds Podcast and we're bringing you the Horror every week all October long. Kicking off this month I'll be bringing you all my greatest fear inducing horror games from Resident Evil to Silent Hill. Me and Tony bringing backfireteam on Left 4 Dead 2 and we just gonna be going over some of the great greats. Also in October we'll be talking about our favorite horror and Halloween movie and figuring out why black people always gotta die first.

[Steve Covino]

The Umbral reliquary invites any and all fool brave enough to peruse its many curiosities, but take heed, all sales are final. Weekly horror side quests written and narrated by yours truly with a full episode read and a commentary special.

[Rich Davis]

And we will cap it off with Horror Movie Battle Royale, Jason vs. Freddy Michael Myers Vers vs. The Alien Thing with the Little Tongue Monster. October we're doing it Halloween style. Listen to the Trap Nurse podcast from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcast. Whenever I got through the window I tried to pick him up and his body was stiff. I'm Ben Westoff and this is the Peacemaker, a true crime podcast investigating a string of mysterious deaths at a prestigious Missouri university and the fraternity brother at the center of it all. A few years back, two fraternity brothers died by suicide just weeks apart in shockingly similar ways. Both were discovered by the same student, Brandon Grossheim. I laid him down and proceeded. I tilted his head back and proceeded to give him mouth to mouth in cpr. At first, people gave Brandon the benefit of the doubt, but when three more acquaintances died the following year, the tide turned. The lawsuit says Gross Heim was one of the last people to see each victim before their deaths. Was he profoundly unlucky or was something much darker at play?

[Sad Oligarch Podcast Host]

The Rich Russians Falling out of Windows podcast is back. Sad Oligarch Season 2 Since we left you in 202023 after season one, many politically motivated Russian millionaires have continued to die in suspicious circumstances. We dig deeper into these odd deaths, which include everything from mushroom poisoning and mysterious heart attacks, the window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation. One thing we have found since we started back in 2022 is the information on the suspicious deaths has become much harder to find. Not just that, it seems as if state controlled media in Russia is being utilized to purposely confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out. As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird. Listen to Sad Oligarch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, time to play the game.

[Steve Covino]

All right. Cnr, by the way, yeah, I want to say rest in peace running back Doug Martin, 36, passed away over the weekend. Idaho. Kid played for the Buccaneers and your Raiders. Danny G. Yeah, yeah.

[Danny G]

Started his life in the Bay Area.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, rest in peace to Sam Rivers, original founding bass player of Limp Bizkit who passed away at 48 over the weekend. Dude, so when you do that math you're like 48. They were huge in the early 2000s. How old was he then? He started Limp Bizkit with Fred Thirst when he was 18 and he was in his early 20s when all those big, big hits happened. So anyway, I'll be playing some of that tonight on Turbo 41 on Series XM, but we're Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Live from the FOX Sports Radio.

[Rich Davis]

I'll make sure not to you let.

[Danny G]

All right, Josh in Tennessee, you with us?

[Steve Covino]

Last one stand and let's go.

[Danny G]

Josh, you ready?

[Rich Davis]

Yes, sir.

[Danny G]

All right, all players alive because we only got to do two categories. Tiebreak here. No multiple choice. It's whoever comes closest. So buzz in with your name when you're ready. Okay, let's talk Manny Wood. How many home runs did Manny Ramirez hit in his 17 year MLB career? Think about it for a second. Do the math.

[Steve Covino]

Such a good one, Manny. Just Manny and Manny.

[Rich Davis]

Are we doing closest at that deal?

[Danny G]

It doesn't matter if you're over under whoever's closest.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, Derek, is me big puppy. Look at. I like my pink suit. I look like Frankenberry.

[Dan Beyer]

512.

[Danny G]

Okay. 512.

[Rich Davis]

So that you know we're not just playing like the. I'm gonna try to overshoot you. I wrote down proof, right? 5:36.

[Danny G]

I wrote perfect 36 for rich. Okay. Okay. And how about you, Josh in Tennessee?

[Rich Davis]

575.

[Danny G]

575. All right. Ready?

[Rich Davis]

Kavino didn't.

[Steve Covino]

I didn't answer you.

[Danny G]

I was looking at him when I.

[Steve Covino]

Said, are you ready now? I'm going. I think he's like in the 517 area. I'm going. 5:17. Final answer.

[Danny G]

517. The answer is 555. So I think we got to do some math here.

[Steve Covino]

Wait, what did Rich say? I think Rich won.

[Danny G]

Rich said 536.

[Rich Davis]

I won by one.

[Steve Covino]

You won by one? Yeah. Oh, my goodness. You won by one.

[Danny G]

Holy schnike.

[Steve Covino]

He's with a 19.

[Rich Davis]

What can I say? Hard to be a champ, Kavino. One day you'll feel it. One day.

[Steve Covino]

I hate to rub it in and take away from his victory, but if you guys remember, I did win the bet of who would have the most wins this season, the Yankees or the Mets. Has he paid up yet? If my calculations are correct, rich owes me $2,100. Okay.

[Danny G]

Plus interest.

[Steve Covino]

Feels good to be a winner.

[Danny G]

Speaking of Josh in Tennessee, thank you for playing the game.

[Steve Covino]

Thank you, Josh. Thank you. Thank you, Josh. Appreciate it. Last one standing.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, wait. You sure? Sure. Was it Josh that made that bet with you?

[Steve Covino]

I do have Me and his match. I want you to let this simmer, Dan Beyer. Let me know what you think of this deal. I have a let's make a deal.

[Rich Davis]

Offer for Rich that's very kind that there's even a deal in place. What would happen.

[Steve Covino]

It's like a plea bargain. So the deal was $1,000 for the best record. Right? And there's got to be a payoff. We talked about it all.

[Rich Davis]

I'm a man of my word.

[Steve Covino]

And then Rich, who was feeling confident and brazen about his Mets, was like. And a hundred dollars extra for every win over. I ended up winning $2,100. The Yankees were that much better than the Mets.

[Rich Davis]

Eleven games better. And at one point, the Mets had a four game better record.

[Steve Covino]

All right.

[Rich Davis]

Late in the season, to the point where I remember offering you, like, a payout. Like, I'll take this.

[Steve Covino]

So here's what I'm thinking.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, boy.

[Steve Covino]

Danny G. Super producer, is always so kind. On our birthdays, he gives us gifts and presents. And one year he gave gift. He gave a really nice gift to Rich, and I had my eye on that. Like, Rich doesn't appreciate that. I would have appreciated that gift. I don't know why he wasted that gift on Rich. Ungrateful Rich.

[Rich Davis]

What are you talking about?

[Steve Covino]

So now's my chance to see if I can get my hands on it. On the gift that Danny gave to Rich years ago for his birthday. My counteroffer to your $2,100 that you owe me, since I'm the big winner.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Steve Covino]

Instead of $2,100, I'm thinking, since you're my past.

[Rich Davis]

Al, he's being very.

[Steve Covino]

How about you give me a thousand? Because that was the original bet.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Steve Covino]

In that sh. Otani rookie card that Danny G. Gave you, didn't I have a little piece of his uniform in it? Shohei Otani. How about you think about that?

[Rich Davis]

Okay, I'll think about that and we'll chat tomorrow. Until then, Ariba Therechi, baby.

[Steve Covino]

See you in the promised land Games, guys. Shohei Otani.
