John Brankus lost John Brankus of ESPN Sports Science over the weekend. Always a real nice guy on our show and if we do have time, we'll pay a little bit of a tribute of some of the things you learned. Either way, I wanted to get that out. He was always a nice dude, mental health as well. Lost his battle with depression at the age of 54. But really always a kind guy and always enjoyed what he did on espn. Well on today's show let me give you a little tease, a little taste of what's coming up. We are going to give away prizes with last one standing. We're going to talk about those weak ass bets you've made or the times in life where you've thrown away money, where you've invested in the dumbest thing or maybe just said wait, I just gave money to this guy for what? And it didn't work out. So we'll talk about wasting money. We're going to talk about Libby Dunn. She's calling out all the middle aged creepers. I'll say. Sure. But I have a question. Like you, I have a question to start the show with that has nothing to do with Libby Dunn's perfect gymnast body or Josh Allen's wedding or anything. Perfect gymnast body. No, you said it that way. I mean yeah, Rich was one of those creepers in our pre show meeting. Yeah. Just because he was smiling when he said it doesn't make him not a creep. Perfect gymnast body. I'm sorry, what is she like? Not in shape? She not the, you know, talented gymnast. Beautiful gymnast Libby Dunn. But what has she been known for over the last week? I don't know. Posing for Sports Illustrated and looking all good looking. No. Yeah. As we were discussing the story about creepers, Rich was showing us pictures on his phone. Look at this one. Look at this one. Lucky Paul Skeens. Anyway, we'll get to all that but I do want to start with a question that might sound like a no brainer. So I'm going to take an element out of it. Because sometimes a hypothetical is too easy because it's like, well, obviously this one for, you know, the financial reason. So I'm taking away money. How about that? Salary taken away? OK, salary taken away. Currently in 2025. Right now. Right now. Would you rather be a Colorado Rocky or Savannah Banana? Right now on Dos de Junio. Would you rather be a Banana or a Rocky? And I said the caveat. Take the salary away. Because you could say, well, obviously rich, you know, you're a major league baseball player with any tenure, you'll make millions, blah, blah, blah. I get it. So take away the millions of dollars. I'm talking about simply the fun playing ball. What's going on? Would you rather be a Savannah Banana or a Colorado Rock? It's a great question because we're coming off the weekend where there was so much buzz out here on the west side. So much buzz, period for the Savannah Bananas. They played in Anaheim. Sold out crowd. The Great Hambino was there. Patrick Rena showed up and he was calling his shots. The Hambino from, you know, the Sultan of Swat. The Great Hambino from the sandlot. I'm baking like a toasted cheeser out here. And there was a lot of pressure on him to at least make contact and he did. But the crowd went nuts. There's always a sold out crowd nowadays. They sold out Fenway. They're selling out everywhere. So think about all the buzz and all the fun they're having. Women love them, by the way, Women love the Savannah Bananas. And the Colorado Rockies are 9 and 50 right now. Last in the, in the NL West. Got to factor in how much it sucks to lose. Can you repeat that record for the people in the cheap seats? They're nine and 50. Double that up. They're on pace for being 18 and 100 with like 40 games to go. They're on an eight game losing streak. Third fastest team in MLB history to get to 50 losses. They're one in nine in their last 10. So think about how dismal Les Miserables, how frustrating it must be to make it to the big leagues, right? Like you're one of the few. You're. You're one of the chosen. You made it to the big leagues and you're playing for this team where it's almost like bittersweet because you're playing major league baseball. But you're the weakest. You're the worst. I'm a big baseball fan. Everyone on that team probably hates each other. You and I are big baseball fans. But my Son, his first year in T ball, he happened to be. His team is the Rockies. And he's like, dad, who's on the real Rockies? And I'm like, no one knows, buddy. Dude, the only thing cool about the Rockies is that their logo is CNR Covino and Rip. But I gotta ask for real, take away the money, would you rather still be able to say, I'm a big leaguer, I'm in the Rockies, or is there something so cool about being a Savannah Banana right now? And I say that because everywhere they go, they sell out. As. As Drago's wife said, oh, I'm sorry, his trainer, everything he hits, he destroys. Everywhere they go, they sell out. Our buddy Drew Mack in Nashville just hit us up saying, Guys, three weeks ago they sold out Titan Stadium, which holds 60 plus thousand people in minutes. The Titan, Titan Stadium. We say they're the current day Globetrotters, but I'm not sure the Globetrotters could ever do that ever this weekend, could they? I don't know. This weekend in Los Angeles, you had the Yankees coming to town. And I'm not saying it was a bigger ticket, but I heard just as many people talking about how, hey, my, you know, one of the kids went down to Anaheim. The, you know, you Savannah Bananas were playing where the Angels play. It almost had equal level of chit chat, by the way. That's a goofy point, but a true one. It really is. We're out here on the west coast. I went to the Yankees game yesterday. A World Series rematch. A World Series rematch where the Dodgers just embarrassed the Yankees. But then the Yankees won the last one with Yamamoto on the mound. So that was cool. I was there. It was a beautiful day. And you're right, Rich, there was more buzz about the Savannah Bananas than there was about the Yankees Dodgers. That's no joke. At least from what I experienced and what I heard people talking about in my algorithm. And I'm a Yankees fan. In my algorithm, I saw more people commenting on Patrick Rena, the great Hambino, then Shohei Ohtani sleeping in the dugoutani. Maybe because both judge and sh. Hey. Well, they put on a show the first two games, but they were both hitless in yesterday's game. So they were like an oh for eight combined yesterday or something like that. But either way, we do pose this question. I would even. Well, I don't know. I was pushing it. You think Savannah Bananas could beat the Rockies at this point? No, that's what I mean. Just like spirit alone, they could. You know what? Maybe on spirit alone, maybe. If they. On stilts with flaming bats, Maybe. I don't know. But it. I think that question sort of goes to, you know when they say, could Alabama beat the Panthers? And it's like, no, the Panthers or whoever would be taking it overboard because they really stink. You got just a couple of weekends ago, they beat your Yankees at least once. It was heartbreaking to get their ninth win. I know. And that feels like forever ago, Danny. That was the last time they won. You're comparing now. It sounds like you're comparing the Rockies like the Washington Generals. I know. I'm joking, but the Rockies or the Bananas? My ego gets in the way if you take money out of it. There's still so much clout and cool in saying that you're a major league big leaguer. Also, you could maybe be the one to help them turn it around. Yeah, I would have to still pick the Rockies, even though Savannah Bananas, they really are rock stars. Let me give you the flip. I was going to say, if you're a Savannah Banana and the people that follow them are starting to really know the guys on the team, like household names. Right? If you go to an arena or stadium or ballpark where 50, 60,000 people are watching you, music's playing, they're getting involved, how does that feel versus 8,000 people maybe watching you Lackluster performance in Colorado. Yeah, they're pulling a way bigger crowd, and they're pulling way more women. That's the truth. So if you're a single guy on the prowl. Did you call me the perv earlier? I'm just saying that has to factor into it because you're right. 8,000 show up to see the Rockies. You get 60. How many thousand people to watch the Savannah Bananas? And a lot of them are families, but beautiful women. Even my girlfriend's like, I want to see the Savannah Bananas. And I'm like, for what? Why? Who's in your algorithm? Your Savannah Banana's not good enough. No. But Danny G. Women find these guys hot. And they're in entertaining, they're charming. They think it's like a fun event because they're hearing that it's the thing to go do, and they are seeing these reels. The hot ticket. Yeah, it's the hot ticket. And it sounds like such bs but on social media, the popular guys on the Bananas have, like, millions of followers where if you're on the Rockies, like, again, you could be a big baseball fan and maybe name a few guys on that team. It really is a. I'M just giving the bananas some ammo because it seems obvious that playing in the big leagues would be the number one answer. Take the money away. Yeah, but you can't take away my childhood dream of wanting to play major league baseball. And that's why we have to always keep in mind that you want to be on the team with the worst record in baseball history. No, I'm saying people on sports radio, us included, are always talking about these guys who he dreamt of being someday. So always keep that in mind. Like what we say is really coming from a place of no matter what, they're still doing what we all dreamt about doing. So I would say Rocky's all day. Even though the Savannah Bananas are the hot answer. You know what adds to the allure of the bananas too? You know how there's, if there's a girl that you're like, eh, feeling about but like, let's say she can sing really well, she has a talent and that sucks you in. Makes her even hotter. Makes her even hotter. The Savannah Bananas. Let me get. Don't get me wrong, they're very attractive. Yeah, but the handsome fellas. Handsome fellas. But the fact that they can like dance and do, you know, flips and have fun, have bats on fire, it's like that element just makes them like a hundred times more alluring. Hey, baby, I can do a backflip. Hey, I'm not. And along those lines. Guys, as you're talking about this, I'm doing some random Twitter research and a young lady posted about a banana named Jackson Olson just met the modern day Prince Charming, Jackson Olsen. He's even more perfect and charming in person. And he promised me more Joan Jonas Brothers Bananas content is coming. They're rock stars, man. You know who's not getting that attention? Hunter Goodman. And you're thinking, who's Hunter Goodman? Who? The guy with the highest batting average and most home runs on the Rockies with a.265 batting average and seven home runs. 265 nowadays is like 330, so that's not too bad. So answer the question, Isaac Loinchron. Would you rather be, money aside, a banana or a Rocky? I'd rather be a banana than a Rocky. And we did not arranged this before, but for reference, Jackson Olson, I'm looking at it right now, has four times more X followers than Hunter Goodman. Not making that up. Which matters in today's world. I know there's a lot of people like, who cares? Hey, people care. 60 something thousand people are going to See him? They sold out Anaheim this weekend. The great hambino, the Sultan of Swat. So you say Rocky Isaac, I say Ronna Danny G. What says you? I. I'm with Covino. I would go Rocky Isaac. Lonecron and me are on the same page because I rather be a Savannah banana. For real, dude? Yeah, for real, for real, for real. We get their appeal. Good one. My wife livestown with a banana. Well, Rich loves karaoke, so they're. Hold on. In itself. We knew his answer would be a banana. Putting on a show. And I feel like this is a show just tap dancing. They're putting on a show. And you know what? I went to the Yankee game yesterday, and it was a great game against the Dodgers. You know what? I like, they're doing something. I'd never seen this before. Danny, you probably saw it. It was called Cardio Cam. You know how every stadium does the great city subway race or the sausage race or Kiss Cam. They did Cardio Cam and they had all these little fat vato kids running as fast as they could in place, and they were going around. The stadium was so much fun. I was dying. And you're trying to put that up against a banana. Banana. But I was telling my. My girlfriend, like, oh, that's funny. She's like, why don't they have cheerleaders? I' why would they have cheerleaders? And she goes, well, I don't know. Entertainment factor. It's a ball game. People are here having fun, and there's 50,000 men. I don't know. And she's looking at all the Japanese advertisements at Dodger Stadium. They have cheerleaders in Japan. She's like, maybe they would do that. Just make it more entertaining, like the Savannah Bananas and like they do in Japan. I'm like, well, you know what? Maybe based on all the popularity the Savannah Bananas have given and how good that is for baseball, I imagine, because little kids are like, oh, the bananas. They're going to get into baseball. I hope as a result, maybe baseball, MLB takes a page, whatever it is, but takes a page for the entertainment value of the game. You know who? I don't know what that is, but maybe they do learn something from it because there's a lot of people showing up. You know who is down in Anaheim? Who. Not at the Yankees, Dodgers. At the Bananas game. Our buddy, Coach Ball Game. Coach Ball Game. Who's getting all these kids involved in the game? I was. Sam, what is your answer? Would you rather be a Rocky or a banana? I would rather be a Rocky, I think, you know, if you don't have the pitching to be a good team or even a decent team, but every game you can go to the plate and you can try to get hits, you can try to get runs and maybe eke out a couple of wins. This isn't football. I'm saying if money's not a factor. Right, right, right. If you could show up to the ballpark every night and play with 60,000 people, music's playing, cheerleaders, bats on fire, stunts, all this stuff versus all the Rockies are 9 and 50. What it is really back to. Course, what I'm saying is you can. You have the chance to probably eke out a couple more wins for the Rockies. And what does that mean? You're still a big leaguer. You're a big leaguer. And your career is not going to be defined just this one. It's a matter of how much that means to you. Because if you're going to compare fun to misery, you can't even compare the two. It's how much fun the bananas are having and how miserable. Do you think the Rockies. I mean, the Rockies. It's fun being a banana, but would a Rocky take. Switch places with a banana? No. Never. No, but a banana would switch places with a Rocky. You know why, though? Money only or dream come true? Money only because. No, they weren't good enough. I'll tell you why. Money only because the goal is to play baseball professionally. And you play the game you love, a children's game that you get paid for. What do you rather do? Have fun or be on a dreadfully worst team in the history of baseball? Yeah, I'm sure tension's high in Colorado, but I'm keeping my answer, which is Colorado, Rocky, they're 9 and 50 right now. But tell me, give me a reason other than the money. Pride. But what does that even mean? Because you're playing with the best. And that was the goal. To make it to the big leagues. You made it. But your day in and day out is fun versus not. I know. I mean, you asked me for my answer. I don't think there's a right or wrong answer. I'd rather have way less fun just to be like, I'm a big leaguer. Yeah, that was the goal. Was your goal to pitch on stilts? What if I told you you're the main Savannah banana? You make five mil a year versus your middle. No. Money was not a factor. No. No. But let's say. But let's say money was a factor. And it was equal money. And all of a sudden the bananas were making as much. There's credibility and clout in being a big leaguer. I think that makes the conversation different. Yeah. Oh, it does. Of course it does. So because. So if money didn't play a factor in the beginning, why am I saying now when the bananas make money, you're like, well, now hold on though. I'm not changing my argument, but we do open it up to Fox Sports Radio Nation. It's a changing world. No, all I'm saying, I'm not saying one way or the other, Rich. I'm just saying you said no money involved in this scenario. I'm saying the only reason why most people would say, well, still the Rockies, because if, you know, if you're a bunk ass Rockies player, you're still making millions. No, in my mind, I'm thinking you just get to hear your, your name announced and you walk up to bat in a major league game in a beautiful stadium. I know they're losing, but have you ever. With 2,000 people there. Okay, Rich, but let me tell you this. When we go do remotes, we do the same exact show whether there's 10 or 200. So that doesn't change our experience. Now I have a way better time with the 200. I. What do you think? I think that it doesn't make the experience any less beautiful, though. If that's your dream to get to the big time. I think it would be 80, 20. That would be my guess. We should put up a poll. FoxSportsRadio.com Honestly, we're coming off a pretty significant weekend. Yankees, Dodgers. Yeah. And Rich isn't that far off in saying that there was so much buzz and just check social media. Yeah. On the Savannana bananas. Rich, I think the listeners are going to agree with you because of the fun. I think because of the fun aspect, a lot of people click on the bananas. So many people listen would be, I think 80% of the fox Sports listeners would be like, yeah, I'd rather be in the big leagues. Give me a break. You're choosing prestige over popularity. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's every kid's dream to play in the big leagues. Yeah. But I'll give you this. Every kid was your dream to play for the bananas. They didn't exist. Yeah, because. And I still wouldn't think that if you ask kids, I think it would be different if you asked a kid. Kids now are like, yo, man, these guys are. I talked, I talked to one of the parents at the School this morning. Hey, how was your weekend? We took the kids down to Anaheim, went to see the Savannah Bananas, and I said, how was it? You know what the dad told me? He goes, I'll be honest, it's going to be tough to bring them to a Dodgers game now because there's so much excitement every inning, music fire, cheerleaders dancing, that he goes to get my little boys to be as engaged as the Savannah Bananas. Dodger Stadium is loud and fast moving. That cardio cam was pretty fun. Yeah. Yeah. But they got, they got to take some of that showing. Guess which hat the ball's under. That's, that's not the only form of. I mean, they roll ice cube out in a lowrider. They're in the World Series. Not just the World Series home opener. And there's lots of big popular giveaway nights at the stadium. That stadium is rocking, I think for a lot of people listening right now. Hey, who can they. More Candies. You or Max Muncie? Go to the big screen. You're talking like it's like a boring baseball team in the 1970s. I think there's a lot of people listening probably right now that are shocked by the popularity of Bananas. Not everybody lives in social media world that we live or has kids that are in tune with this stuff. So we're just telling you they're the modern day Globetrotters guys and what we say is true, man, this is a real thing they got going on. I'm amazed by what they've accomplished in such a short period of time. I think it's an incredible story. I'm a fan of what they do, but I would still pick the big leagues over that. I have two thoughts. Go ahead, Spotty. Think of how the world has changed though. Okay? The world is changing. Okay. Right. In order to hit, order to be popular, let's say even like 20 years ago, you used to have to be either a movie star, a musician, or maybe even on tv. Barely on tv. Now somebody now. Or a morning show dj. Right. Or morning show dj. Yeah. Like Jack now. It's like if you're an influencer, you can be more popular than a person that's in a blockbuster movie over the weekend. Yeah. So it's like the times, they are changing. I know baseball has made efforts to be a little bit more exciting. You asked me, I'm in my 40s. If you ask a 10 year old nose picker, I don't know if that's who you're talking to. But if you ask a 10 year old, they may have a different answer. Like Rich. I'm not going to change my mind. Two layers. Number one, what's the most popular form of boxing? Now you could deny. You could be like. Like this weekend. Camino goes. Yo, did you see who Charlo fought? Who fought? Caleb Plant. Caleb Plant. Charlo won. Caleb Plant lost. Yeah. Guess what? Charo was fighting. Yeah, Charo. Charo from the 80s. From the 80s. The day. Yes. Elder abuse. Charlo, Caleb Plant. But guess what people are more talking about Jake Paul fighting Julio Caesar Chavez Jr. Skulls, ninnies. Whatever, man. If you ask the world you want to live in, then go right ahead. Wrap it up by answering this question. We'll take your feedback next. If you were offered today Steve Covino. Yes. To throw out the first pitch at the Savannah Bananas game or a Colorado Rock. This is the easiest answer in the world. Colorado Rockies. Are you serious? You're talking to a guy in his 40s. I'm not 10 years old. You would. Yes. That's major league baseball. So you tell me. You know the logo. Mlb. I appreciate everything the Bananas do, but I'm not trying to be a circus star. Are you serious right now? Yes, 100%. I'd be honored. I would have a great time. That's not to downplay this. Van Bananas. I admire everything they do, but we're talking big league baseball. Apparently. Yes. Packed. Get out of here, man. That's so cool. A packed stadium with hydro. I don't care about that. I would love to be a part of it. I'm not trying to downplay it. In fact, like I said, I often promote the Savannah Bananas, but that's not major league baseball. All right. Hey, gimmicks versus game. It's like playing flag football a little bit. Well, you know what? We'll take your feedback next. Would you rather be a Rocky? You made a great argument. Would you rather be a Rocky or banana? Your thoughts? And we are going to get to the NBA.

Welcome back to the CNR on FSR Experience the World famous Covino and Rich show again party in June 20th, 21st, 22nd in Vegas. Are you gonna bring the party like a Savannah banana or a Colorado Rockies? Well, I mean it's a good question. I'll explain my answer again. But again we're Covino and Rich. Hope to see you in Vegas. Details at Covino and Rich. Check our X page and everything at Fox Sports Radio. We're live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. For over 40 years Tire rack has been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive ship fast and free.

We're going to get the last one standing giving away prizes. We do it every Monday plus oh boy, we kind of talk about Libby Dunn and other things the NBA. But speaking of hope you had a pacer sort of weekend. Excited for this Thursday. Pacers Thunder. Hope you had a resendes sort of weekend. Resendees. Huevos resendees over Caleb Plant. Hope you enjoyed the fights. Who's your favorite Bakker? That's. You should use that one. Now resend these huevos. And now back to your phone calls 87799 on FOX over the weekend. A World Series rematch. I went to yesterday's game. I had a great time. But you know what it does lack and baseball's popping. You know we're big baseball fans. Baseball's definitely popping baseball. But it does lack entertainment factor. It does showmanship and that's where the Savannah bananas are really slaying it. Yeah. Really doing a great job. So I commend them. But based on their appearance here in la, in Anaheim, actually, over the weekend. My point was, over the weekend, I heard equal number of people buzzing about, and the Savannah Bananas are down in Anaheim. They sold the place out. It's nuts. It's crazy that as many people were talking about that as the Dodgers, Yankees, which was like a little note. I was like, you know, so Rich is saying, would you rather have fun with the Bananas who are selling out 60,000 plus? Everybody's loving them. Women love them, families love them. They're having a blast. Fun, fun. Have a miserable time. You're also out, though, if you pop up and a fan catches it. That's true. Or would you rather have a miserable time losing? But you're in the bigs with the rockies, who are 9 and 50. Right. And the rub was take away money. Because you can't be like, well, I want to be a big leaguer. The money. If the Rockies didn't make a lot of money or the Bananas were all millionaires too, then. Then the conversation is different. But we're taking away money. So Mike, who runs this place, came in. Who? Mike. Just a little while ago. The guy was just here. Never heard of him. Basically, what you're asking is, would you rather be a WWE Champion. Yep. Or a gold medal winner in wrestling? I'm glad you said gold medal winner in wrestling. You'd rather be Geno Petrovillo. Yeah. From Georgia, by Russia. Yeah. Because you know what? Instead of John Cena, I could easily explain this if money's not a factor. I'm more into real winning than pretend winning. Thank you. You know what? Hit. Hit the Kurt angle theme. Because he was both. Yes. I think this is fair to say when I think of Steve Covino and your take on this, you suck. Why? Because I choose to be a professional, not a circus clown. I don't know. I don't think I'm alone here. You suck. I think more people would choose the big leagues than the Savannah Bananas. And I say that respectfully. You know, let's go to Trip in Vegas. I'm just saying, money aside, there's something really fun, exciting about going to work every day. Hey, Trip Banana, let's go to Tripp. Tripp, are you into real winning or pretend when I stop it? No. Absolutely would want to be a Rocky, and here's why. If you're a Rocky, you could always be a Savannah Banana. But it doesn't go the other way around. And also, I'd much rather be the WWE Champion than a Gold medal winner. So you're mixed on it, right? I mean, okay, but if you're a Rocky, right? You can always be traded, who's cooler? And you're playing with the best in the world, dude. No one could ever take that away from you. Have a baseball reference, some gold medal, gold medal winning grappler. Or, you know, Stone Cold Steve Austin, who's cooler? A gold medal winner, man. You go down in history, dude, you leave your mark. That's awesome. Who else does Stone Cold Steve Austin? One of the greatest entertainers. Dwayne the Rock Johnson, Hulk Hogan. Come on. Again. But one's real. Ones pretend. Who cares? Rich, since 1876, there's been 20,000 major league ball players. Think about that. And only 47 bananas. Not a good fight. Riches of clown. His uncle was bozo. Rich is a clown. So it's no surprise that you want to be the Savannah. Do you rather be a bench player on the mill? Do you rather be a bench player on like the Milwaukee bucks in the 80s? Or do you rather be Curly Neal, the most famous Globetrotter? I'd rather be Curly Neil in the 80s. Would you have rather been Michael Jackson or Weird Al Yankovic? See? But eat it or beat it. Yeah, because the Savannahs are. Eat it. They're the comedy version of the real thing. Ding dong, man. Ding dong. But Danny, give me someone that's not one of the greatest three entertainers of all time. If you told me, do I rather be Weird Al or. I don't know, give me a real performer. Falk. A seagull. Yes. They're pros, though. Perlman, the violinist? Yes. Would you rather be Yitzhak Pearlman? That's not a good Yo Yo Ma. Yes, it is. No, it's not. Hey, guys, fight nice, man. We're not. We're supposed to be having fun like the bananas. Sean in Sacramento, do you rather be a banana or a Rocky? Yeah. What's up, banana, bro? It was a big weekend for the bananas, man. I don't know. Keto and your banana, bro. Posse a. It's a huge weekend, man. And Rich, I gotta. I gotta give it to you, man. I was just telling Daddy. You gotta be stirred up on this topic, bro. I'm glad you took that sativa edible earlier and you had this whole conversation, but I can't agree with you on this one, man. It feels like, you know, the guy who plays baseball wants to end up a Rocky because he knows to Cavino's point, he knows he's playing against the best in the world. He reached his dream goal. And I bet you there's a couple of Savannah Bananas right now who are tired of hitting the gritty from first to second, who are tired of hitting the cha cha slide in between and ends and not being taken serious. Yo, dude, you know, that's a great point, Sean. You just hit the nail on the head. Ready? Here's why I'm right. I said before, yeah, I'm into real winning, not pretend winning. Right. And that's no disrespect. I admire what they're doing. I can't make that any more clear. But I guarantee you, I, George Foreman, guarantee the highest form of sports guarantee there is. I, George Foreman, guarantee you that every Savannah banana would trade places to be in the big leagues. Every one of them right there is the proof. For the money? No, for the dream. They all wanted to play in the big leagues, but they weren't good enough. But right now there's a layer of social media, entertainment, selling out arenas, stadiums, everywhere. The Savannah Bananas are hot right now. And you know, I want to, I want to give one quick music analogy and then we'll go to Isaac for an update. You're. You rather be the authentic rocker that plays in front of 13 people at a club instead of the rocker that's like, hey, we're going to give you a pop image. And he's playing so far. They are so hot right now. Think about it, Think about it. We'll get to rest your feedback and other hard hitting issues here on the CNR experience. But first, Isaac, the guy's the best. Hold on. I got two theories on this. This is really interesting. The other, the other part of the question is, would the Rockies want to trade places with the bananas? Never. I mean, I mean, again, if money wasn't a thing and you see how much fun people are having, we forget, man. Sometimes you see someone, you think they're living the greatest life, but they're having a boring life. I'm just saying. There you go. It speaks to something I think all of us, and I include listeners can identify with. Would you go to a high, high, high paying job that sucks the soul out of you, but you get a humongous, ginormous paycheck or a considerably less paycheck. But you, your coworkers, you have fun, dude. One of the dudes, one of the coaches, that's what's going on. You're right. One of the dads on my kids baseball team. I don't call him out, but he's a surgeon guy probably has a beautiful house, makes a ton of money, but the guy is the most stressed, tired guy. He looks miserable all the time. Anyway, back to you. I want to be a banana. Like I said, there are bigger societal issues at play. Well, perhaps maybe in the grand scheme of things, Frank Ragnow is going to become a Savannah banana. Because today the Detroit Lions four time Pro bowl center announced his retirement. Ragnow, 29 years old, only played seven seasons in the league, but posted on Instagram, I've tried to convince myself that I'm feeling good, but I'm not. And it's time to prioritize my health and my family's future. Elsewhere, New England Patriots receiver Stefan Diggs, who apparently enjoys catching passes on land and at sea, was back at their OTA practice today after being absent all last week. Wonder what he spent that time doing. Crystal light. Crystal light. Okay, I'll just take your word for it. In the NBA, ESPN reported the Phoenix Suns have narrowed their head coaching search down to two Cleveland Cavaliers assistant coaches, Johnny Bryant and Jordan Ott. And finally, front Office Sports reports that the Professional Track and Field league Grand Slam Track is launching an investigation into a fan who said he heckled sprinter Gabby Thomas at a meet in Philadelphia over the weekend in order for his parlays to hit. The gentleman who goes by the handle Mr.100k a day posted on social media quote, I made Gabby lose by heckling her and it made my parlay win. He then posted a video of himself heckling Thomas by calling her a choke artist, among other things. Back to you guys. Reminds me of you, jackass. Speaking of which, the trailer for the second Happy Gilmore movie came out today. All right. Hey, more Camino Rich. Thank you, Isaac. We'll. We'll get more your feedback. We'll talk some NBA and of course Livy Dunn in the news and Paul Skeens. We'll get to that right here on cnr. So, Travis Matthew, am I right? Well, don't be jealous.

Cavino and Rich. Sounds like a lot more fun than Rocky Mountain High. I mean, you could be a Rocky. I'll be a banana all day. The end. We are live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. Now it's time for our tire rack play of the day. The Mariners walked it off against the Twins yesterday. 11 tie, bottom of the ninth inning, the stretch, the 21 pitch. Swinging a ground ball up the middle base hit the Mariners with it. Randy arose arena jumps on first base, a walk off single. Julio scores and the Mariners win it 2 to 1 over the Minnesota Twins. Seattle now sitting atop the AL West 32 and 26 courtesy of the Mariners Radio network. And that's our tire rack play of the day. You realize that's not a Savannah Bananas highlight, right?

Backed by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Thanks again to tire rack tire rack.com the Tire Buying should be. And there's another range. Randy in Seattle. Randy Johnson. Perhaps you heard of him. Oh, I think you say Randy Watson. No, Randy Johnson. Randall Watson. They're retiring as number 51 in 2026. Announced it. Quite the honor and well deserved and long overdue if you ask me. Randy Johnson, great mullet. Great mullet. Great baseball name bird killer. I'm not even joking. That was a great walk off. Rosa Rania, one of the best in the big you see the best rain. But the reality is a bigger moment this weekend. To wrap it up was Hambino the great hambino Patrick Rena from the sandlot. I will never getting an at bat for the Savannah Bananas. I'm not going to downplay the amount of pressure he probably had on him to make contact in that moment. I thought that was big and he's a real good dude. I'm glad he had that awesome moment. Anyway, hey, enjoy both as you said, as a little tortilla girl said. And Steve Covino, the grown tortilla boy. Boy crunchy or soft tortilla? Why not both? Why not both? So you can love the bananas and the Rockies. Baseball is popping right now because not only the Savannah bananas popping. I was looking at the NL standings and I don't care about your Yankees in the al, the NL right now. Danny G. Is it. Could it get hotter than Dodgers, Padres, Mets, Phillies and the Cubs are right back in the mix. They're all like practically at the same record. Log jam, dude. It's a log jam in the best way that if you're a baseball fan, come October, knock on wood. I hope we get all those teams going five or seven games right. Sleep on the Cardinals. Did you see the Cardinals? Cardinals are hot, too. They're going to be a wild card, possibly only four games behind the Cubs. So they're up there. By the way, as far as the right market teams, no offense to the smaller market teams, but if you told me the NL was going to be Mets, Phillies, Dodgers, Padres, Cubs, Cardinals, that is like. That's like the dream that Rob Manfred has every night when he goes to bed. I had a nightmare watching the Yankees lose to the Dodgers. And what I have learned from watching that. Oh, Shohei was thinking of sugar plums in his sleep. No, but what I learned watching them closely is that they're just so impossible to beat. I think even with their worst out there, they had no ace on the mound, they had no Mookie bets, he stubbed his toe or whatever. They're the team to beat, man. They're so good. We'll see how the Mets do this week. Because the Mets won two out of three in New York and now they play the next four days. They're so good here at Dodger Stadium. So as a Mets fan, Danny, I'm hoping for a split. So, you know, if you could get. If you could beat the Dodgers. Banana split. A banana split, in fact. There you go. Thank you. I was saying thank you, Sam. NBA. We'll get to that next, your thoughts on the Finals and a bunch coming up right here. Fox Sports Radio. Hang tight.
