Oh, you got that new Shaq show that starts tonight on Netflix where Shaq goes back to like help Reebok. Did you see this? It starts tonight. You know what I started watching by accident? Danny G. Because I was watching your Dodgers Mets. It was on. I don't know why. I was watching TruTV. What was on TruTV? Reruns of Impractical Jokers. There's sports on True TV. Anthony Davis. I was watching something on True TV. And that Anthony Davis prank show. That ad prank show was on. Have you ever seen it? Foul play. It has potential and it is like impractical jokers. Here's the only downside. AD's great and he's trying to have fun. He's pranking his buddies and other athletes. His athletes are just not funny. He's great. But again, it's like you're trying to squeeze funny out of guys who aren't that funny. Yeah, yeah. But he's great. I like it. Well, you know what? Before I like it, before we move on to Travis Hunter prenups and Nosferatu, there's a funny story from Fox Sports Radio earlier today. Danny. To wrap up this Tom Brady bringing his 10 year old around Snoop Dogg and strippers. It got the conversation going last hour. Things when you were a kid that you know you shouldn't have seen or heard. You had one last story to wrap it up. Yeah. So I was in my twenties, I guess you still could have called me a kid. It was my first full time program director job for a hip hop station and a recording artist who I will never look at the same again. His record company threw a big party for him. Hotel suite. And they used to use the bathtubs in the suite. They filled them with ice, and they used that as the cooler for all the drinks. Very classy. The drank. Drank, yeah. So I don't know if I should say the artist's name. His name rhymes with. Let's see. Musta Limes. Okay. Now, his longtime hype man column, Clif Bar, told me, hey, AG go get me a drink and grab yourself one. I look over towards the bathroom door, and he's like, no, no. I've been sitting here the whole time. Nobody's in there. I got set up big time. I walk in, Musta Limes is in the bathroom blocking the bathtub with two women doing unspeakable things. And I quickly turn. Oh, my God, you know, so awkward. And I turned around and walked out. And his hype man was laughing. He's like, ah. He's like, he's going bad. You walked in on him. Wow. Yeah. And so now whenever I see that rapper, I try to burn that vision out of my mind. Mustard limes, right? Mustard, mustard, mustard, limes. Musta limes. Jump, jump. So we'll wrap it up with your phone calls real quick, and then we got to move on. All right. We have other things to talk about. We'll talk some Travis Hunter and Mike's Wednesday words of wisdom. All right, let's say hi to Rich in Tacoma. Hey, Rich. Hey. How y' all guys doing? What's up, man? I love y' all show, man. Oh, thank you. I had to call in on this one. I was about 11 years old, right? And my dad, we were living in Alexander, Virginia, at the time. My dad had this company. He was a Handyman for century 21. So he would go and clean all the houses after they kick people out, right? So I'm going helping them throw out the trash and stuff. And one of his workers put the magazines in the truck. And my dad, at the end of the day, he told me to go to the truck and wait and wait for them to come, right? It was hustlers. Oh. And I was like, it blew my mind that I was so such a shock. My dad caught me looking at the magazine, and he reminds me, my dad is a deacon, ex drill sergeant. He went off. He. He went off. But I. Hey, that's the first time I ever saw a woman naked. Yeah, you can't unsee that. Everybody remembers that first moment. Sam brought up a great point off the air. He said a lot of dads have pulled their son aside and done uncles, brothers, uncle's brothers. Like, hey, we don't tell mom about this, all right? This is between us. Yeah, you're going to see some stuff. We don't talk to mom about this. Yeah, you don't bring it up. Okay, dad. Big Bert, Georgia. What's up? Hey, man. Thank you guys for having me, man. Love the show. Hey, you guys need to embrace it that you put a fire on the Colorado Rockies and put some of that Covino on Rich Mojo on them. They may go to the World Series. You know what? They're going to dig it on 40 of their next 50. Get right back in this thing. Banana, Savannah Banana who? And I'm from Georgia. Yeah, they saw spots video clip about, you'd rather be a banana, Rich. And they've been undefeated since. You know who reached out to us, by the way? Patrick Rena, the Great Hambino, reached out and said he enjoyed our clip. We might have him on soon. The Great Hambino. Hey, quick story. So. So I was a big AV nerd back in the day. I was 14 year old at the family barbecue, and my cousin's room was kind of where all the kids hang out. And they said, you know, they said, bert, go fix the vcr. Something's wrong with the vcr, man. The kids can't watch, you know, whatever movies. So me being me, think, who the heck put this TV together? Got it working, hit play. And it was a damn Diddy freak off kind of thing going on. And here's the worst part. Here's the worst part is we're sitting there, before I could turn it off, Grandma Esme comes in, and now she's looking at me. Oh, man. Yo, Big burp got red handed. Yo, last one. These are great calls, Jorge. Fort Lauderdale. What's up, man? What up, Jorge? What up, fellas? Great show, man. Let me start off by saying, let's go Panthers tonight. The tailgate has started. N. Yeah. Only reason I'm telling this story is because my parents are no longer with us. Because if not, there's no way I'd be able to do it. But when I was a kid, my dad had a collection of guns. There was this one, he had a.45 caliber handgun that I was just in love with. And when they weren't home, I would go and Search it out and I would find it. And they'd caught me playing with it a few times. So they would switch the hiding spot in different places in the house because they had caught me so many times. I know looking back, it's insane. You know, I was like 12 years old, but you're a little kid playing with a gun. What the hell you doing? What was your obsession, you maniac? It was just, it was just a cool looking as a kid. We'd got shooting with them all the time. And it was just the coolest looking, like black nickel metal.45 caliber gun with like a tan handle. And I was just like enthralled by it. But I'd go and I'd look for it and he'd catch me playing with it. My dad never kept a clip with it because they knew what, what I'm just what a menace I was. So one of these instances, they weren't home and I was looking for. And I found my dad's porno magazine stash. And I was like, this is fantastic. This is even better. Now I'm gonna play with something else. Thank you, Jorge, by the way. So stupid. This guy is super stupid. 49ers against the Bears. Yep. I think his dad would prefer he play with a magazine over a gun in a magazine, if you know what I mean. Yep. Thank you. Hey, thanks for sharing your stories. Got great feedback. And if you want to continue sharing at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. You know what, we could zip past this real quick because I do want to talk about Travis Hunter. But a couple hours ago on Fox Sports Radio, there was. There was a debate on the Got Leap show where everyone except I was Sam. Made him feel like Nosferatu was something that no one knew. How did it come up, by the way? How this all come up? I was Sam. So because it was buzzing in the hallways when we got here, I was like, I always like to run with the hallway buzz. Hallway buzz. Let me just get. Okay, so Jason Stewart, Doug Olives producer this morning, he said, we're going to talk about this for the midway. Will the NBA ever create a finals that mirrors the Super Bowl? Adam Silver was on this show, FS one show called Breakfast Ball, talking about he'd like to make the finals as big of a deal as the Super Bowl. Hard to do, by the way. Yeah. And then I, I reply, Nosferatu appears in the sunlight. And no one replies. So I'm saying, like, oh, Adam Silver the vampire shows up during daylight hours to talk about the NBA Finals and no one got it. And by the way, he does look like Nosferatu. Thank you. And so Isaac, Jason, and Doug were like, yeah, we don't know what that is. And then, like, one by one, I kept having more. More and more people coming to me, like Mike, Big Mike Bershinger, and you guys. And they're like, how do they not know who Nosferatu is? I mean, there's so many pop culture references. If you grew up listening to Howard Stern, he would quote and pretend to be Nosferatu all the time. There's a spongebob reference that a whole generation is obsessed with. Where Nosferatu appears on SpongeBob. It's a classic silent film from 1920 characters around for over 100 years. To me, he was always synonymous with Dracula, but it turns out he's like a low budget Dracula, right? He was, yeah. Different vampire. And the reason I know even more about it now is because within the past year, the remake happened and it was buzzing everywhere. Nominated for an Academy Award. So it's like the. If you're into horror movies, how do you not know Nosferatu? Now listen, I. You should know Dracula and you should know Nosferatu in terms of high profile vampires. Isaac's over here shaking his head. He's like, yeah, it's kind of wild that everyone there was making Sam feel like he was the crazy one. I'm not saying I'm. I'm not saying I'm Team Sam, where everyone loves and knows Nosferatu. Isaac Lonequin. My. My argument is, even if you aren't a sci fi horror type of guy, the remake alone, like a year ago, put it back on the maps for even the people like, who the hell is Nosferatu? The Skarsgard guy was. He played Nosferatu in the movie. I'm not angry about this. I'm actually disappointed. I held the two of you in such high regard. I thought you guys were so cool, like, too cool for it. Then I see this word that I literally have never seen before in my entire life. Nosferatu. Nosferatu. And I'm like, what? Well, there's also very famous memes of Adam Silver comparing Silver to Nosferatu. I know that Silver is. Well, he looks more like one of the aliens in one of the first Men in Black movies. But that's a debate we can have for another time. But the point is here, I didn't think that you two, who are the, like, right up there with the coolest guys I've ever met. In my life. It honestly took you guys down a peg in my mind, to be honest, I don't know. Nosferatu. Oh, by the way, Isaac, I don't know who. Nosferatu. Thank you for the kind words. Second thought, never heard of him. Sam, you're on your own. You know what? One last thought about that and we'll get to Mike's words of wisdom. We were talking also about, like, things that you would think everyone knows and they don't. Now, there's other, I hate to say foreign sports, but foreign sports that we aren't as familiar with. Like, I doubt we all know the rules of rugby here in the room or cricket. Like, you know, I've been on vacation and you go to the islands and they love cricket, and you're like, you know, I just don't know the rules. It's funny. As baseball's becoming more of an international game and Shohei is the biggest star in the world, and, yeah, everyone's tuning in. There's this overseas viral movement of people just discovering now that baseball field dimensions are all different. Yeah, it's really funny. It's not the diamond. The diamond's always the same. But we know that the outfield is always different. And other cultures and people jumping onto the sport are just realizing that now. It's really funny watching. Watching international fans just figure it out. It's funny. So no one felt the need to tell me that every Major League Baseball field has got a completely different shape and size. And I don't mean like how Old Trafford is five yards bigger than Craven Cottage. Oh. I mean that Major League Baseball teams are literally allowed to shape and size their fields to however they want. I realized this the other day when I was watching back the LA Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks game. So the goat, Shohei Otani, goes up to bat this ball, and as soon as he made contact, I thought, this is definitely a home run. Then as the camera switches to the outcome field, I see this massive green wall. And then the commentator says, well, Steve, this would have been a home run in 28 of the 30 Major League Baseball ballparks. And I was like, so they're cheating there. That's sort of the point. That's it. They're all different. This international trend where they're just now realizing around the world that United States baseball and baseball for that matter, everywhere dimensions are different in every stadium. And I think the history is they. Because they were trying to fit a lot of these stadiums in industrial parts and cities where there wasn't A lot of space. So they just ran with the space that they had. Correct me if I'm wrong here, the dimensions of the diamond, like the dirt, are all the same. All the same. But the actual home run distance outfield is bigger or smaller. Yeah. So based on the Nosferatu and based on the fact that people are just figuring that out now, what's worse to not know? Think about it. Yeah, think about it. I think it might be worse to not know that baseball fields are all different, but not to know Nosferatu. Sort of. I'll go with the baseball one then. Make Sam feel bad about it. Yeah. Well, hey, listen, Isaac feel good about it. Isaac's a great guy. I want to make him feel. I love Isaac. Hey, I did want to get to this. I know we got lots to get to. We're going to get to spots midweek. Major in a little bit. Travis Hunter, there's a story, and I find this guy great. I follow him on social media. He was a. He used to be a regular guest on our show back in the day. He's like a divorce attorney that does really interesting videos on social media. His name is James Sexton. Really charismatic guy. For anyone going through divorce or separation, he's really, like, the expert on, like, how to make it work the best. This guy, we've known him for, what, 15 years? At least. Yeah, he's like the no BS, straightforward kind of guy. And I remember this stuff. He would be injustice that mostly men have to go through. And. And unfortunately, he. He would always bring up, hey, listen, guys, you might be happy in your relationship, but you go through a divorce during the unanticipated worst times. So the idea of a prenuptial agreement isn't sabotaging your marriage. His argument is make this. Make this work for you. When you guys are happy with each other. So then when things possibly do go bad, there's no questions. Yeah. Like, do it at a time when you could actually talk reasonably, not when you're hating each other. Like, I mean, listen, there's still people that say, you shut your mouth when you're talking to me. She wants my miles. You know, you got to remember, some people think no matter what prenups bad, I'll never do it. But because it screams to the other person that you don't trust this relationship. We saw this, unfortunately, season eight of Love is Blind. Remember Rich? Yeah. The one. The girl's family, the female wanted to have one for the guy. Well, because she came from money and she was a success. Story, and he seemed like he didn't have his S together. The question is if you're Travis Hunter, because this is the story that goes along with this. This guy James Stexson is offering all of the members of the 2025 NFL Draft Class Free prenup consultations. And they should take him up on it. Because Travis Hunter. Because you realize that the breadwinner really doesn't own anything. Yeah, that's what. I had a home until I got divorced. Then I realized I didn't have a home anymore. Your condo's nice. Yeah. No, but it's the truth. You know, all the things that you thought were yours, you realize. I guess they're not mine. I guess. Yeah. Well, Travis Hunter recently got married, and there were two. There were three things that stood out. His now wife, where the wedding band goes. She got a dollar sign tattoo that could be a red flag. He did like a big reveal where as a wedding gift, also gave her an expensive vehicle worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. And on top of all this, no prenuptial agreement. And I'm not saying anything bad about this woman, but when you're Travis Hunter, don't you sort of want to play it safe? Like, hey, listen, baby, baby girl, come here, baby girl, I love you, you love me. We're a happy family. But God forbid something goes wrong. I'm just trying to protect myself. That show that there's a good chance that something can go wrong. There's a 40, 50% chance. Around 50%, there's a. There's a 50% chance. There's a flip of a coin that this could go bad. I'm not going to leave you high and dry. I'm not going to go live with my mama because you not in love. I mean, I'm not going to leave you with nothing. But the sentiment here is, I'll protect you, you protect me. But we should put something in place. Do you think every athlete should require some type of prenuptial agreement? Yes. And should the woman have to accept? What about, like, Patrick Mahomes, though, where it was a high school sweetheart? Yeah. These are like the. Right. These are those rare exceptions, like the. We've known each other since we're 16, and yeah, she. He probably couldn't have done it without her and her support. I mean, he was a doofus in high school. Like, he. He got a girlfriend like, that was a class above him again. You know what I'm saying? His dad was a big leaguer, so she sort of maybe knew. Doesn't make him less of a doo Rufus when he was in high school. Yeah, that is true. I saw he said himself like I was awkward and weird around her and I'm lucky that she liked me. I think those stories of the high school romance, that's an easy. What's it called? Like. Like it was roll you she was rolled into this because I think it's an easy way to just say if you were there before that happened then you don't have to worry about it. I think that's after the contract you guys got together then why not a prenup? It should be almost mandatory to protect life. She's been his girlfriend and fiance all through college. Right? Right. So if she. Where does that start though? I think. I think it's. Man, that's a good one, Danny. Where. Where does that starting point start for the guy? Man, you should get a prenup. And by the way, that's not. It's not sexist because this would apply to women in sports or women who bring home the bacon. That's for anybody who's the breadwinner that has a lot to lose women from. I'd if JLO would have told Casper the backup dancer back in the day, like, like. But why JLo? Why do we need a prenup? You know why we need one. I don't know if we need a prenup. Jlope, why are you saying you don't trust me in this relationship? Well, I feel a little offended now that you want to bring up maybe I think you. All of a sudden I feel like I'm watching the Muppet Show. You remember? You remember JLo? Did you guys park? Do you. Do you guys feel like you were witnessing something you shouldn't have seen? By the way, Cavino, your Ben Affleck needs some work. No, that was my Casper. No, I know. I thought a great story recently was Dave Portnoy from Barstool who I very much admire. Successful guy. His ex wife still has access to all their accounts because he's like, yo, she was with me when I couldn't afford a sandwich. Now he's, you know, multi millionaire. It's a separate account though. But he's filled it with money. Yeah. And I think that there's a level of trust with those old school boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, wives. But if you're a 23 year old and you're just getting married, you know, the same month you sign your first NFL deal. I hate to say it because you want to be good, spirited and Trust people. But is there any harm in saying, babe, just for both of us? No. Because I'll tell you what happens. And this is from experience. And not just my experiences, other people's experience that I've seen. It turns into. It's not a matter of them just trying to F you over. It's what they're entitled to. So if the law says they're entitled to that, then they're gonna get that. You may. She may be. And it's really unfair sometimes. She may be reasonable. I have a buddy who went through a divorce. No prenuptial. And his ex wife at first was like, yeah, let's do this all civil. And then her lawyer was like, no, no, you could get, yeah, you're entitled to this. You're entitled to that. And then. And then it makes it seem like, well, I'm not doing anything wrong because that's what I'm entitled to. And then the guy has to move out and live in a little apartment. Then he has to drive a Civic, and then he has to drive a Civic for the next six years. It was very specific. Very specific. All right. Hey, you know, we're gonna do next, we're gonna do midweek. Major Spotty has all the stories that we're. We've missed and you may have missed in the world of sports and entertainment. We break it down next. Is it mid? Is it a weak story? Is it a major story? Plus, before the end of the show, we will sneak in Mike's words of wisdom and give away a stainless steel Cavino enriched swiggy. So hang tight. That's all coming up right here. Fox Sports Radio with CNR cannot tell you enough about the confidence. Look at Rich today, how confident he is because he got a sweet shirt on today. That's my nice few things in life. Yeah. Give you the extra edge. Travis Matthew does that for you. Sometimes the sweet haircut. Sometimes that sweet, fresh, clean tea. And Travis Matthew, they're extra crispy. I love the T shirts. I love that cloud collection. It's your first layer, your only layer. Built for movement, made for style. These new tees keep you up no matter where you're headed. Now button ups, they are so perfectly fitted. Like, you know, sometimes you get a button up and it's all flint. Like, it's baggy and it makes you look like, almost like, be honest, like bigger than you are and you're like, boxy. Yeah, yeah, like boxing. Like, I'm not. I'm not fat. I'm a. You're like a Minecraft guy. Yeah, I'm not a Minecraft character. Everybody, I want a nice button up and I get those at Travis Matthew. But it's also not that weird Euro cut either where, you know, one hamburger, it doesn't fit you anymore. You know what? You ain't. You ain't kidding. They got polos, they got button ups all fitting perfectly. Look at the sweater shirt I'm wearing today. It's a sweater. It's just a nice fit. Nice fit man. And that's what they do with the T shirts too. All the Travis Matthew and I can't rave enough about their featherweight jeans. They really do feel like Rich is raving so hard about these jeans. He brought in glow sticks and was dancing with them on. That's how hard he was raving. All right, tell them where to get it. Kavito again.

Sometimes the answer is yes. But there's a company dedicated to a future where the answer will always be no. Across the country, cops called this Taser the Revolution. But not everyone was convinced it was that simple. Cops believed everything that Taser told them.

No relation to Leanne Rhymes. I always wondered that Covino And Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Cavino, Rich Davis. So many siblings in music in the 2000s. You had Jessica and Ashley Simpson. You had the Madden brothers, a good Charlotte. You had. You had Hanson Bop. You had Nina sky, which were twin sisters. You had Evan and Jaron. And you had Bustin leann Rimes. Yeah, a lot of people don't know they actually are siblings. More jokes like that on pop2k on SiriusXM. Yeah, thanks. Hey, Spot, you listen. Thanks.

So our bonus spot over promised on fox Sports Radio's YouTube channel. Look at Spot in his new little corner. His new little video editing corner. You ready to do this or what? I'm gonna stay over here. Is that okay? Fair enough. Let's do it. Covino. And Rich gets you over the middle of the week with midweek major. Oh, I love that. We throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas. And it's like the kids say, that's so mid. We definitely major CNR scoring midweek major. I gotta go really fast to give Spotty eight full minutes. Take as much time as you'd like. There's really not much going on today. You hear the horns. That means you have made it to the middle of the week. And before we hand things over to the number one and only host of the segment, we'd like to roll the two big red love dice over there in the main studio. Yeah, I can't lose. He rolled a two. I rolled a two. Now it's a rich roll. I hope you get a two. Goes well. Seven. Seven. Craps. That means Rich gets first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains, New Jersey. Spotty boy. All right, let's start off with the NBA all star game, which has had some lackluster reactions the last few years. Well, NBA NBA commissioner Adam Silver looking to shake things up a bit. You mean Nosferatu? Nosferatu. Announcing that next season's NBA All Star game will feature team USA versus team World. The NBA been trying to fix the All Star Game and its lack of competitiveness and hoping that some national pride may do the trick. So Silver actually attributes NHL's four nations face off that took place this year to making the decision, saying that it really generated some excitement that hockey tournament. Hockey tournament, yeah. So the All Star Game will also take place in the middle of the Winter Olympics next year. So it'll make some sense to go from the USA versus the world next season. Also kicks off the new broadcasting contracts with espn, NBC Prime. So maybe the new fresh approach overall. Is this midweek or major? Dude, this is major, bro. Definitely major. Maybe not that major, but the game is changing. I sound like the guy in Billy Madison. The world is changing. The last six MVPs of the NBA, all international players. You ever see that meme where it's like, where does the NBA MVP come from? The last, you guessed it, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Seasons International, whether it's Giannis or Jokic or Embiid or, you know, sga. I. I think this is really interesting. There might be some US Pride by some of the homegrown kids to see what they could do against these international stars. You're gonna see Luca and Giannis and like I said, the joker, seeing if they could beat up on what used to be the dominant us. Right. I think this is cool. Stars. Stars. I agree with Rich. I think it's major. Pause. But it feels mid. But it feels mid. That's so mid. Yes. So mid. Yes. I like that they're changing it up. Something needed to be done. What I don't like is that the hockey thing sort of inspired this, because it's not going to be as good as the hockey thing. It's not. Adam Silver went on to say, I must suck your blood. Spongebob said Nosferatu. All right, Spotty, what's next? I thought you guys were going to keep making Nosferatu jokes. Feels mid. It does. I don't think we're quite ready. Ready for that. Well, I mean, we're getting there. Everyone, you know, bitching and complaining about the current format. Isn't this just a step in a fun direction? The right direction? So that's why I said it is major. But it just feels mid. Something feels mid the usual format. Even when they had the team captains and they did all that, there wasn't really much pride on the line. This actually feels like there could be pride on the line. And I know you're big on pride in sports, so there you go. I hate the Story, but I'm gonna report it. Talk to. I think it was about a month or two ago we talked about how Kobe and Gigi's mural in LA was vandalized and a GoFundMe was created which was ultimately funded by Lakers newest member Luka Doncic. Well, the mural that was restored last week has been vandalized again. This is horrible. I don't know why they keep doing this. The mural, which is located at 14th and Main in downtown LA was vandalized with like white marking over the whole thing. And now the artist says he's looking. I know he's looking to move it to a new place to avoid more vandals. So it is going to make a yet another comeback, but we just don't know where. Hopefully in much safer, maybe a higher location, who knows Midweek or Major. Can't they catch these losers? By the way, it's major. The word is it's a turf war right there where that's at. Because most of the sports murals in Los Angeles are left alone. Most people in LA could catch up their neighbor's dogs pooping on their lawn with their ring doorbell. We can't figure out who's vandalizing a really big mural. That was Covino, by the way. On your law. Yeah, I've had enough of Rich. Why'd you have to tell him? But I agree with Rich. This is major. It was a beautiful mural the first time. It's disrespectful in major way. It's beyond disrespectful. It's infuriating. It pisses me off that people would do this and Danny G's right. And there's a difference between. Well, first of all, it's a beautiful mural and it's not like someone's tagging it. They're just, just ruining it. They're just spray painting over this like, yeah, we don't like it. They're not doing art over it or tagging or anything. They're just ruining the mural. I hate it. Yeah, it stinks. Bad story. It's just bad people. This is, it's a little bit of a nice story. So we talked last week how Ellie Della Cruz, after the tragic death of his older sister the day before, still went on to play and ended up hitting a home run in our honor. Pointed to the sky, did like little heart hands and everything. He wrote messages to her, her honestly and all of that stuff. Well, the home run ball, the guy who caught the ball at Brandon Daly actually is looking to return the Ball back to Ellie De La Cruz. Obviously the ball holds a special meeting for Ellie and his family. And he recognizes that, says he has the deepest sympathy for the sluggers family has reached out to the organization looking to facilitate a transfer. It doesn't look like he's looking for anything. Like, you know, some people when they're returning balls are looking for like, like money or tickets or whatever. He just wants to do the gesture. And if he said if Ellie doesn't want it, he's happy to keep it as a special home run ball for midweek or major. Major. Decadently. Major. Major. Major. Decadently. Major. I'll tell you what. Because 99.9% of the time I would say f the athlete. Regular guy, go get your money. Go. You've just been handed a lottery ticket. You catch a special home run ball. I would never trade a home run ball for like. And Aaron Judge is gonna give you a signed bat. Get out of here. Give me my millions. This is the rare case of an emotional home run after the death of a family member. He's doing the right thing. And I think the kind gesture will be that this guy's kind, sweet, genuine gesture will result in him being hooked up. I bet, anyway, so I think it's a beautiful story. And this guy is doing the right thing. He's doing the right things. Major once again and perfect contrast from the previous story where you had dirtbag people ruining a mural. It's nice to hear someone doing the right thing and giving the ball back. And again, there's no. There's no baseball value to the ball. There's emotional value, sentimental value that matters here for only Ellie De La Cruz. So he should have it. He's doing the right thing. Well, another nice gesture in baseball and sports. Your boy Judge, usually a not a flashy guy, has been seen rocking a little gavel pendant. Have you noticed this, Kavina? I have, yeah. Yeah. A little blingy gavel pendant apparently worth up to $20,000. He was asked about it, has been kind of hush on it, but said it was a gift. Well, it was revealed who the gift was from. And that's from. Yeah. Go. Go for it. Jazz Chisholm. I guess. Yeah. Judge Judy. How to know how it is a gift from fellow teammate and team captain Giancarlo Stanton. Yeah. The piece was created by AJ's Jewelry in Miami, where Stan and Jazz Chisholm. Judy. Judy. Actually frequent. So Stan apparently reached out to the jeweler and wanted to do something nice from his teammate. The gavels crusted in 12 carats of diamonds and amethyst and also features some special personal details like Judge's daughter's name, Nora and her birthday, his wife, wife Sam's name, their dog's name as well as 2x to acknowledge the MVP awards. So a nice little gesture from his team midweek or major? That's I think it's major. I think we already said it, right? I mean just major on every way. And I'll tell you why. Because Aaron Judge, I, I'm not a Yankees fan, but he's such a great ambassador to the game. This is a cool thing. I, I really thought it was Jazz chisholm because jazz got some style so I thought he was the guy that did it. Good guess. I think it's major too because as an ambassador of the game, he's on one almost too humble for his own good. And it's cool that Giancarlo is trying to spice him up a little bit, give him some flair that he can't deny. And it was a nice gesture and who doesn't like to see nice camaraderie and chemistry amongst the team? So I think that's cool. Here comes the judge. Aaron Judge on judgment day. All right, let's go to Isaac glowing crown for an update. Thank you, Spot. Thank you, Spotty. You're welcome. And thank you, Spotty. I like your new approach there.

Do you think there was a plan in place, Danny G. Is your instinct that they have their eye on someone? Relationships, Rich, you don't break up with one person usually unless you have someone else in mind. You know, we call that. We call that in the women in the world of dating. Kavino used to call it the dod. Every girl has a dong on deck right off. Right off the bat, Rich, there was some noise about Michael Malone there. There is a reporter there locally who's saying that's probably not going to happen. But UConn's Dan Hurley. His name's been thrown around. Hurley, Remember, he passed up the Lakers job, but he's an east coast guy, remember? One of the main reasons why he didn't go to the Lakers was relocating his family all the way across the country. But UConn and the Knicks, that's a little car ride away, buddies. That's a quick little hopping hop in the car. Now, Monsie, who's the update anchor, next is saying, no. No way, Jose. No way. Aaron. Aaron Torres are. You know, House Insider has already tweeted that Dan Hurley has said, I am not pursuing any NBA coaching this offseason. Take me off the list. So I trust Aaron Torres, and he put it out. Nice. Yeah, yeah. This story was from Bleacher Report three hours ago. It's pretty. It's pretty messed up what they did to him.
