Hello, I'm John Lithgow. We choose to go to the moon. I want to tell you about my new fiction podcast. That's one small step for man about Buzz Aldrin, one of the true pioneers of space.

We're giving away prizes. That's all we ask. I wanted to see if you could guess something real quick. And then I do want to talk about some big deals going on in sports. I feel like it's like a turning point as far as how we consume all of our media, especially in the sports world. But what company do you think I just read might have to shut down after 133 years. Think about where things have gone in our life technology wise. There's your little hint. But a major company might be calling it quits. Wow. Really? I'll give it away with one more hint. Yeah. Pitbull shouts him out two times in a song. Kodak. Kodak. Think about it. Kodak. Does anyone? I mean cameras and film like actually rhymes Kodak with Kodak, which is always bothered me. Yeah, I don't like that. But yeah, Kodak, they're saying after almost 150 years, might have to close up shop. There's so many old school companies that when you think about it, just the other day you're talking about newspapers and magazines and things that meant so much. I know Cavino's on the History Channel quite a bit. Yeah, well they misstepped like Blockbuster and like Toys R Us instead of moving with technology. Yeah. They sort of fell behind when at one point they were the league leaders. Blockbusters big mistake was no film. They really leaned into film. Film. We need film. Blockbuster's big misstep was they decided that no late fees was more important than trying to go digital. Remember, they're like, no, no digital. Who cares? No late fees, guys. But yeah, Kodak, you know, one that's going away. And again, because we're constantly evolving. Which sort of ties into where I wanted to go here. Kove, which was. You saw Dana White and the UFC now In cahoots with Paramount plus, breaking news yesterday, UFC agreed to a seven year, $7.7 billion exclusive. US media, right? And billions. Paramount plus, beginning in 2026, all UFC events will stream on Paramount plus with select events also airing on CBS. And that sort of coincides with what Turki Alish in the world of boxing said recently. He said no more pay per views moving forward. He said he believed it ruined the sport. And I get it, because it was great. At one time, we all tuned in to watch Mike Tyson knock people out. Sometimes you paid a lot of money just for 90 seconds. But you made it. I mean, doing what? I'm sorry, you paid a lot, a lot of money for 90 seconds. Yeah. Watching Mike Tyson. Oh, okay. I'm sorry. Yeah. Watching pay per views. I don't know what you were thinking. Huh, huh. But yeah, because then I would have said 30 seconds. Oh, okay. But 90 seconds to watch a fight. And then again, it was Mike Tyson. So you would do that. But you start losing a grasp and interest on the sport when you had to pay for every goofy fight where you didn't even know the people anymore. So it sort of ruined the sport where he said he wanted to turn that around. So with Turki Alisheek making moves in boxing, in fact, with Dana White and then Dana White making this deal with Paramount plus for UFC $7.7 billion. Is it the death of pay per view? And. And I think it is. We talked about cable tv and how does anyone even have cable anymore? Because like I'll watch my Met games on the MLB app. You have Sunday Ticket or Red Zone for NFL. And I don't know if you just saw ESPN and Fox are launching a new Ultimate Sports bundle. Did you see this? So I did. We all canceled. Another breaking story. Yeah, we all canceled cable to now just have all these apps and streaming services that are adding up to more than what our cable bill was. You're right, you're still paying, but you're not paying the same way. So no more pay per views, most likely. Yesterday, ESPN and Fox announced a plan to bundle their direct to consumer offerings. The agreement will allow consumers to purchase the two services bundled together starting October 2nd for 39.99 per month. Did you say Offerings. I did say offerings. Offerings. And that was according to Yahoo. Sports yesterday. Breaking news for Fox 1. So with all these changes with Dana White with Turkey Alchic and what used to be a fun thing, but then it became an expensive thing, is pay per View the newest to say goodbye? Yeah, tpv no longer. I think we're looking at a world where. And I don't, you know, feel like it's very Boomer thing to say, so I won't harp on it, but the whole idea of, you know, our cable bills were like 100, 200 bucks. And we're like, f this. And at first you're like, I just got Netflix. And then Netflix has since like tripled in price. Remember when Netflix is like five to ten bucks a month? I feel like my Netflix bill, I don't know offhand what it's like 20, 30 bucks. Now Netflix, all these streaming services have killed us with the price hikes. And you know what? I don't mind because I enjoy my Entertainment. But Hulu, HBO, Peacock is double. It was like two years ago. Peacock 12, 13. Now Hulu's morphing into Disney Plus. Yeah. And then so I have Hulu Live and Disney and. Which will now be Disney and then Paramount plus, which I got for Dexter. And now I'm like, well, I guess I'll keep it if I get UFC now on. On Paramount plus. But. And HBO is now HBO Max again. And tonight, episode two of Hard Knocks, Buffalo Bills, if anyone's watching. Just a reminder there. So you got all these things streaming and you're paying everywhere, but you might not be paying for pay per view. That. That's, that's sort of an interesting thought, right? Like, I get it and we have to accept it. It is what it is, right? I mean, you're going to end up paying 40 bucks for your sports bundle. You're going to pay for Paramount plus, you're going to pay for hbo. You're going to pay for Netflix and Hulu and Peacock and every network. Don't forget about the NFL Sunday ticket. You have to have YouTube TV to be able to have your Sunday tickets. So I have to pay the $80 a month or whatever it is to get YouTube TV every NFL season. Goodbye, cable bill. We're just going to spend a couple hundred bucks in other streaming services, which is a. Fine with me. Fine with you, I'm sure. But another said question, Rich, based on technology, what are you going to do? What was the saddest for you to say goodbye to? For me, it Was Toys R Us at one point. I remember taking my daughter there. Like, take it in. It's going away. She's like, what? I'm like, yeah, no more. Yeah, no more Toys R Us. That was kind of sad. I'm not going to lie. It is sort of lame. Toys R Us, kid. When you're taking your kids to a birthday party, which is, I'm sure a lot of people listening, live that mom or dad life where every weekend or so, you got to bring your snot, those little kids to someone's birthday party. You know, Jackson's party at Dave and Buster's, or, you know, little Eleanor's party at the clay store. You got to bring him an Amazon gift card. Yeah. So. But I'm saying, you like Amazon gift card. You're like, let's stop at Target. Like, yeah, the toy store is not Target. Shouldn't be the toy store, but it sort of is. Now. We know they're trying to make a comeback. We know it exists in pop up form. Little pop up form. But Jeffrey Giraffe isn't the same as it used to be. Hey, Steve. Yeah. You still got FAO Schwartz? Okay, yeah, that's still around. Schwarz. I saw one in Schwarz. Not Schwartz. There's no T. Okay, Schwarz. It's FAO Schwartz. Schwartz. Okay, Schwarz. Whatever. Oh, there's Sam. Get an airport. I've always called FAO Schwartz. All right. There's no T Schwarz. If you're a new parent, though, Toys R Us Not Being around is a big hit. Koa turned 2 last week, and my better half and I, we were daydreaming about bringing him to Toys R Us that day to let him pick a couple of toys. Do you remember how exciting that was for you? And how you begged your parents to take you? Are you kidding? My mom used to drop me and my brother off there and let the employees there babysit us for two hours. She's like, I'll be back in a couple hours. There was something magical about Toys R Us where they'd have the bike aisle, they'd have the action figures, the puzzles, the every. You know, the video game section. I remember even, like, the secondary ones, remember? Like, kb. KB Toys. Danny G. What were you doing there for three hours? Danny G. Was the guy opening up the Crocodile Mile and using it in the store. He was doing slip and slide down all three. They had the demo video game section, remember? So we would stand there and play video games. You were on the Pogo Ball, man, just jumping around the store for three hours. Danny here. I'm back. Yeah, mom, it's been four hours. Yeah, man, they thought it was like a play place for Danny G. But yeah, listen, while we are spending more money in other avenues. Can't deny that. And you know what? What are you doing? Which was real sad when the Twinkie went away. What are you gonna do? But then it came back. What are you gonna do? Bitch and complain about it? But the reality is, though, it is sort of cool to know that every weekend, though, one of your buddies, if not you, has Dazn or ESPN and the Fox bundle that's coming out, someone will have Paramount plus. So the idea of UFC and boxing, to me, it just sounds like more passwords to figure out. Yeah. Don't you hate when they do? What do you hate when you reset your password? When you reset your password and like, you can't use the previous one. I'm like that. Then that add a 1 to means I have to start new friendships because they have subscriptions to things I don't. Now I need a new Paramount friend. Hey, who's got MGM plus? Let's have them to the friend group. Hey, what was your favorite but my pay per view. What is it like a WrestleMania 3 or like a butt bongo fiesta? No, but I. One of my buddies would be the guy who doesn't love a butt bongo fiesta. Sounds fun. But I did have that one buddy whose dad would always get the Tyson pay per views. Wrestle. To me, as a kid growing up in the 80s and 90s, wrestling, pay per views and Tyson fights were definitely top notch. Looking back, yeah, I'm sure most people would say some sort of WrestleMania would be their favorite moment or a Tyson fight. But I really, looking back, I love the early days of the tough man fights, the tough man competitions, and the early days of UFC when it was actual, like sumos fighting jiu jitsu, dudes, like we. That kind of thing. Early on, we could complain because rightfully so, it's going to cost a lot of money to watch all your football games. All these streaming services are now adding up to more than our cable bill was. But you got to point out the good too, right? Like, there are things that have changed that are better. You buy concert tickets or show tickets or airline tickets. Just to think, in our childhood, you could book. I saw your buddy Mario Lopez Covino joke about this the other day on Instagram. He goes, when you book a vacation, even though you can do it on your phone, he's like, you ever break out the laptop for like, bigger purchases because it doesn't feel right. Yes. Spending thousands of dollars on your phone, he's like, nah, I gotta break out. I gotta break out the MacBook for this. I'm not booking a $5,000 vacation on my phone. Yeah, you'll be able to see it really clearly. Yeah. Every detail. But just to think, like, if your parents had a family vacation, you don't realize the pain in the ass they probably went through. They had to go to their travel agent. A travel agent. And, like, now you could just go to hotels.com. hotels tonight, kayak or Priceline. You could go anywhere. Back then, your parents had to, like, strategically make appointments at a travel agent. And you're trusting, like, some lady named Cindy at the travel agency. Cindy, you sure this is the best deal for Hershey Park? She has a booklet. She's showing you, like, little pictures and everything. And the other day, you know, Danny, you book concert tickets or ball game tickets. You could go to Ticketmaster, you could go to StubHub, Vivid Seats, SeatGeek, all these places to find your best deal. Back then, I remember even in the 2000s, waiting outside of Shea Stadium for when tickets went on sale for the playoffs. Oh, yeah. Do you remember standing outside a record store for the concert tickets? Remember the ticket booths in stadium parking lots? Yeah, so. And the lines going up to the window? No doubt that the next to the will call. Remember figuring out what will call meant at first? Like, will call. That ties into what we said. Yeah. I had no idea. I'm like, I'm here to see Will call William. William call Bill. He goes. I don't know if his name. Bill. I will call you back. Do you remember the will call window? The first time I heard. That's funny. I don't even know if new stadiums have a ticket window. No, they do. A lot of them do. They still will call. Yeah. Windows. Absolutely. So we say goodbye to pay per view. But what I'm saying is there are some things I. I'm not sad to say goodbye to. Waiting in line for concert tickets, going to a travel agent to book things. Let's be honest, not the penny where you. The penny's gone. Right. They stopped making them new ones. Are you sad to see no more ass pennies? I'm not sad. What is Ben Maller gonna do without his pennies? I do. You know what I don't miss? Having to carry around cash. I know some people love that that's going away. I mean, cash is still king in a lot of places. But who Carries cash. Cash is king. That's why I say all hobos definitely should have a Venmo account. Honestly, the other day, like, I felt bad because I did want to help someone. I was like, yeah, you got any spare change? I'm like, spare change? You need a Venmo code. Well, you know, I know what it was. I was at a venue and it was an open bar, but I wanted to tip the bartender, and I'm like, yo, dude, you got a Venmo? He's like, yeah, let me find it. I'm like, dude, no offense. You should have it right there. Print it out and be like, kindly accepting. Tattoo it on your forehead. Because the reality is, who has a $5 bill in their pocket or 10 or 20 to, like, tip a bartender? So the one thing I won't miss to tie this all together, buying pay per views. You take in your chances. Do you really want to spend 80 bucks for a Canelo fight or a UFC event when you're not sure it's even a fight you want to watch? But again, someone will have Paramount. I wonder how that works with, like, the Zone, though, because what the zone does is they have a monthly subscription for the app, and then they still charge you for those big fights. Right? But if Turkey Alashik is the one putting these big fights together, he's saying, nah, we'll see what happens in the future. But it looks like it's going away. Dale in Ohio. What's up? Dale, you're on with CNR 87799 on Fox. Everything at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. What's up, buddy? Hey, you were talking about that J. Gruel song. How about the 1970s song Afternoon Delight? Yeah, what about? I didn't have a clue what that song was about until my wife said, you don't know what that means. You know, that's a good one as far as not knowing what it means. Yeah, it's like an ice cream sundae in the afternoon. Yeah. Yeah. Afternoon delight. Just a little dessert. Afternoon delight skyrockets in flight. So your thoughts at Covinon rich 87799 on Fox.

What's going on? I wanted to bring up, I may be showing my age here, but I remember when I had scramblers for the Cable box. Yeah, so you can get illegal cable. And I also remember a friend of mine was a high school janitor and he was able to get the free directv cards from a kid at the school who was able to descramble all the cards so you could get any type of direct TP cable you wanted. Oh, sideburns. Yeah. Was up to scams. Old cable boxes. I remember there was always like tricks, like if you held it a certain way, like you could see us of like a scrambled boob. Oh, no, no joke, dude. When we first got our cable box back in the early 80s, you could stick a butter knife inside the box and hit one of the connections. Boom. Unscrabble the Playboy channel. Just like that. Boobies everywhere. There is Big Mike who runs this place. Yeah. Never heard of them. All right, let's say hi to Baker in Illinois. What's up, Baker? Hey, I'm sorry to do this, but as a chef, I have to correct you. There is vodka in vodka in vodka sauce. I think I was more. I was more say there wasn't vodka. I was more referencing that like it was an alcoholic. Like it burns off. I think what Rich meant was the chef has something. It's not gonna get you drunk. Yeah. Meaning. Yeah, no, I get it, Baker. I knew that. I appreciate you bringing that up because that's like when someone would cook with wine, like did they or like not going to get drunk. A brazen beer, you know, you're not going to get intoxicated off. Yeah. Beer battered fries are not going to get you hammered. So. But yeah, there is technically vodka in vodka sauce, but again, it burns off. All right, let's do this. Let's play. Showtime. Mahomes trivia. Come on.

In 2000, who became the first team to make our first round picks in the same draft? Who was the first team to make four first round picks in the same draft? Four of them. Four of them. A, the Browns, B, the Chargers or C, the Jets. Kevin. Kev. Kev for the win. The Browns. No. Oh. Oh. Rich. Rich for the steel. What was C again? C was the Jets. Jets. Yes. Boom. Three way tie. Just like that. Kev. Big Mike and Rich. Yeah. Sean Ellis, 12th, Abraham 13th, Pennington, 18th and Beck 27th. All right, round four worked out well for them last cheating. Those are some winner picks for the Jets. Let's try to snap this tie with round four. All right, round four. Which NFL kicker broke the record for the most field goals in a Single game with 8? A, Sebastian Janachowski of the Raiders, B Rob Baronis of the Titans, or C, Greg Zurline of the Rams, Mike Evans. Big Mike for the win. B. Rob Baroness is correct. Yeah. Big Mike in 2007 versus the Texans. Way to go, Mike. Way to steal the prize from our caller, man. Like, way to let it. I'm on delay, man. You know what? I would like to donate my winnings to Kev. Oh, man, what a guy. What a guy. In an unprecedented move. All right, Corpus Christi, you're going to get a. A gift from cnr courtesy of Big Mike. Big Mike is transferring his IOU over to Kevin. That's right. That's as good as. And by the way, if you. If you're watching, you, if you're watching on our fox Sports Radio YouTube channel, that is not an age stone cold Steve Austin. That's Big Mike. Who runs this place. I bet it was Rick from Pawn Stars when I got here. Thank you, Mike. And thank you, guys. It's a pleasure being on my. My third favorite show again. Number two being Dan Patrick. Number three being you guys, Kavino and Rich. Number one. New heights, baby. Taylor Swift. Can't wait. Can't wait. New heights. Kelsey. Chiefs, let's go. 24 days, baby. Yeah. All right. Thanks, Patrick. Yeah, better luck in your second preseason gear, Patrick. I mean, I can't wait to see Max Crosby sack him. By the way, Patrick Mahomes Way too hyped up for the mornings here on Dan Patrick. I know it's, I know it's a little eye rolly because we know that everyone for the next 48 hours going to be talking about Taylor Swift. On Kelsey's podcast, her big album reveal. She revealed she has a new album. Patrick wouldn't stop talking about. I saw him in the lobby. Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift. It's a new era. Let me tell you. The sad reality is that I guess it's not so sad. It'll likely be the most listened to podcast ever. Oh, without a doubt. You think so? Yeah, I mean, the thing is they're not hateable in any way, so I'm not mad about it. But again, it's, it's because I'd imagine a really, a sit down with Taylor and anyone would get a lot of views. Kelsey already has a high rated podcast. I can only imagine that this would, this would break some type of like Rogan interview or something. I agree with you. Yes. That's the takeaways. Like, did you hear that there's a new record in town? Two new records, Taylor Swift's record and the record of people listening to this podcast. I'd imagine so. And my question for you is they released one other statement from Travis Kelsey. He was interviewed, I believe, by gq. Well, he's on. Isn't he on the COVID I saw the photos. I'm pretty sure it's the COVID is it not? He said what he loves about Taylor. One of the things is that she's just like his mom. And it sort of ties back to that David Justice. David justice story where he said Halle Berry wasn't doing cooking and cleaning and all the stuff his mom did and he just wasn't used to dating a woman that didn't do those type of things. Do you subconsciously feel like we want to be with a woman like our mom? Because I feel like my mother is nothing like it. It's true. It has to be subconscious because I would say no. I'd say 100%. Really. I mean, and women date men like their father. Dr. Melfi always said that everything goes back to your mother. Your mud, everything, you know, goes back to your mom. But as far as dating, I was always looking for, and I say this respectfully, the opposite. I would see how my mom, and she's the best mom in the world, I have a smother. She smothered me with love, almost too much. But she would, as my dad would say, bust his chops all the time. So I would say to myself, here's what's interesting, man. I'm never going to be a son that busted my chops. And subconsciously, what did I end up with that every woman you've dated has only busted? Right? Squeezing my shoes all day. They henpeck you. So consciously I'm like, hell no. Subconsciously, it's what you end up with. So maybe there is truth to that. They wouldn't. They wouldn't talk about daddy issues and mommy issues so much if it wasn't a thing, right? Travis Kelsey says Taylor Swift's just like Mama Kelsey. And he gushes over the organic, quote, unquote, organic relationship, as they put it. He opens up and says that the pop superstars, just like his mommy, gushed over his new relationship in GQ and pointed out how they have similar qualities, like ideal qualities that he looks for in a woman just like Mama Kelsey. I think we're all going to take from our childhood. You know, for years, I feel like people have denied, like, oh, yeah, I don't know, do you really look for someone? Or, you know, do your parents have an impact on you? And the answer is yes, you may not want to. You know, we always assume it has to do with looks. No, it could just be personality qualities. Like, you know, Taylor Swift and his mom apparently both are very kind to everyone in the room and, you know, looking for someone that's just kind and apparently they are in love. And that'll be your most listened to podcast ever. And that's tomorrow. That's tomorrow. Patrick Mahomes. Real excited about it. Are you excited about it? Props to them. It'll be number one without a doubt. Well, like I said, a trailer dropped yesterday of the interview within minutes. Like 20. Over 20 million people within minutes. I don't know what it feels. It was really just one line. It was her saying that. They're really gonna do this, aren't we, Travy? What did she say? Like, that color looks good on you. And he's wearing like a blue shirt. He's like, it's a color of your eyes, baby. Yeah, we're talking about on the bleeping Point podcast or something. Yeah. Are we really about to do a bleeping podcast? And again. Bam. Stupid. 120 million people. It was 13 seconds. There's some kind of relevance for that significance. And then she reveals the album art of their new stuff. All right, now I got to ask, you said this before, Kavino, but I want to dive in for a few minutes before you get out of here today. Who are you, Jacques Cousteau? We gotta. We got a good half hour left. Do you think every winning team, every championship caliber team needs some type of magic? You say magic, I say corny rally cry. I don't think every team needs that. I think that's kind of lame. It's gimmicky, okay? And I say that because there's a team in Major League Baseball grasping for moments. But there's a team in baseball that has won 10 in a row and they joke about how it might have to do with a pancake in a pocket. If you don't know what we're talking about, we'll get to that next. Last year, I'll tell you, I think you could argue your Dodgers won the World Series. But outside the Dodgers, there was nothing more fun than watching the Mets playoff run. And that was all grimace and hawk to a girl. And all like those gimmicks kept a fan base alive in a way. And we'll talk about that next Gimmicky or does a team need something like that? Do they need some mojo, something to rally behind? We'll get to that next. In for Dan, Patrick, Kavino and Rich, Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

He does words of wisdom and you have to repeat them verbatim for a prize. We'll do that tomorrow. Plus midweek. Major the biggest stories in the world of sports and pop culture are the stories mid, weak or major. We'll get to that manana on the show. Graham, let me give you a preview and you tell me if you think this story is midweek or major. Sure. The Milwaukee brewers, winners of 10 in a row, hottest team in baseball, best record in baseball so hot. Want to touch the Heiney? We're so hot right now. That Veronica Vaughn is one piece of ace Sabado. Sabado brewers, hottest team in baseball, 10 in a row. And they all attributed to manager Pat Murphy's pancakes. What does that even mean? Well, mid interview, right when this winning streak started. You've always talked about Pat Murphy's cakes. I always have. Murph's pocket pancakes are now going to be sold at the stadium starting this week. Now, he pulled the pancake out of his pocket, and now the fans are rallying behind this. Why? Why did he do this? I don't know the origin of this. A mini pancake. They're like, they call them pocket pancakes. The power of the pocket pancake. Did it have lint on it when he pulled it out? Well, you know what? He probably, I mean, I'm guessing. I don't know the backstory. I saw the clip, but he's just rolling by the buffet or whatever in the clubhouse, picks one up, puts it in his back pocket for later. Next thing he knows, he's being interviewed and he takes a little bite out of it. The team says it used to be little bagels that he had in his in his pocket. He's done little waffles and the latest thing, I guess are small pancakes in his pocket. Well, I mean, I love it because I do think that now Kavino would say, oh, you just love gimmicky nonsense. But I do feel like every winning team, not everyone. Some people just believe in winning and playing good baseball. It's not about gimmicky goofiness. No, Steve, what's that thing you always say, that phrase? You got a swing, something in your step and something in your pocket. Swing in my step and a pancake in my pocket. Thank you. It's Kyle Dunnigan. I gotta give him props. So here's what I mean by that. I always take it back to the goofy ass Rally Monkey. I thought that was the corniest thing ever. The Rally Monkey. That's what the Angels are remembered for. That one. A World's Wonder World Series 23 years ago with it, that and Spezio's weak ass soul patch. That's what you're remembered for. That's so corny, dude. It was so gimmicky. I guess it worked because the fans and the team rallied behind it. It gave something to bond over and run with. And everyone has a slogan, like, I remember in 96. I think it was 96. Mariano Duncan would say, we play today. We win today. Da. See, Darcy. And that became, like, their T shirt. And of course, the cowboy ups. And everybody's got something goofy. I'm not really into that. Really. Like the Mets, I hate how they lean into any little thing. Like, oh, that's the good luck thing. And that's where we go on a run. Yet last year, how many gimmicks did you have between Timmy, Trumpets, Grimace, the stupid song, the omg I mean, how to a girl, how many gimmicks do you need? You're looking, you're grasping at straws to find where the turning point is. To me, all the things you just said, you water everything down with that. All the things you just said. I feel the complete opposite. I feel like last year the Mets were the most exciting team in baseball. They just bumped into a better team in the Dodgers in the playoffs, but the Mets were winning. But they were winning in dramatic fashion. And they had people dressing up like Grimace. I like the OMG thing. They had the, you know, Iglesias, who's now in the Padres. Well, some gimmicky things are more fun than. Than others. And the whole. The. The whole sentiment last year was that while the Mets didn't go all the way, they were the most fun team to watch. And I feel that way when teams do have gimmicks. Like when you see the Mariners and someone hits a home run, they have their. Their like, Titan sphere like that. They hold, like, the trident, right? The trident. I love that type of stuff. It's a Titan. I don't know what it is. I believe you're right, Sam, but. And of course, the Dodgers, the goofy hip flexor thing. The hip flexor. And then the Ohtani Maverick. Right. But for. For rallying for the Dodgers back probably five to seven years ago. You remember the Rally Banana? I think it was probably 2015, right around there. Kike Hernandez put the. You've seen people wear those banana costumes from the waist up. Yeah, yeah. And Kike used to put that on. They called it the ran the Rally Banana at Dodger Stadium. I'm not saying I'm opposed to fun. I want to make that clear. Fun is great in the sports, and we should lean into that. I just feel like some of these are over the top. I want to be a rally banana. Your head is too big for that costume, dude. I think they're all fun. And again, if you're a Milwaukee Brewer. But I feel like it becomes the Mets identity. I feel like the Mets ruin it. It's like you have One, you stick with it. I know you don't, like, try to find one and then you suck. And then you try to find another one, then you suck again and you try to find another one. See, I think the key is if it happens naturally, it's like viral video, right? It's got to be organic. You can't force something to be like, let's make it go viral. Mets force these things. No, no, no. I think the Mets. I think these things for the Mets have been natural. I think right now, I think when your team is like, oh, man, we got. We have a weak buzz going on right now. We need to find something. I think that's when it seems forced and lame. I think the pancake thing was sort of organic. I don't think he meant to go viral and for this to become a thing because Murph ate a pancake out of his pocket. And again, not just to talk about my Mets, but last year was a great example when the Mets were playing awful grimace throughout the first pitch. And then the Mets got hot and were the best team in baseball, like, a month and a half. So the fact that, like, it's grimace like, and fans were wearing the purple costume, that's funny. When Pat Murphy, manager of the brewers, eats a pancake out of his pocket in the most cavalier way and people are like, wait a minute, did you just eat a pancake in your pocket? And now they won 10 in a row. And now it's like, yo, the rally pancake. To me, I lean into those things. When you try to force it, it is. It's like forcing a viral video. You can't make it happen. You could. You could have the funniest thing. But if you try to force it, no good. Danny and I were talking about this yesterday. Did I immediately thought of that scene from Napoleon Dynamite where he had the tots in his pocket. Yeah. And the guy's like, napoleon, give me some of your tots. And no. And then he said no. And then he crushed him with his foot. I thought of that. With a pancake. Pocket, pocket, pancake. I think in college football you see this with like, you know, when a guy gets a big player, an interception, they might have some big necklace or something they wear or home runs every team. That's fun. That's tradition. I'm not mad at that. I'm mad at the forced moments. I don't know what it is with the Mets this year. They. When someone hits a home run, they hold up some big flip flop. Now, have you seen that every team's got their own dugout thing they might wear. Like a, like a warrior big helmet or so. Like a samurai thing. Like everyone's got something. If it doesn't seem forced, I love it. But I think every good team, it seems to be a bit of a superstition too though, right? Like that just goes hand in hand with sports. Sort of like a good luck charm at this point. Like you need to do those things or lean into those things to keep that streak going. Well, we got what, 40 games left in the baseball season. Yeah, 40 games left. And Rich and I have a bet, by the way. DP Nation, Yankees or Mets, who has the better record? It's a thousand dollar bet. Of course. I'm rooting for my Yankees, Rich rooting for his Mets. And for every game more, it's another hundred bucks. And as of right now, right now you're up by half a game. Half a game. So after all this, we're even. Practically. Almost that about so 24 days away from football, 40 games left of baseball. It's a good time. Good time to be a sportsman for sure. And we'll be back tomorrow. Enjoy the rest of your Taco Tuesday here on Fox Sports Radio. Again, subscribe to our YouTube page. We'd appreciate that. We'll see you back here tomorrow.
