Rich, everybody knows you select Fox Sports Radio as your number one preset and enjoy Kavino and Rich on a Friday. Friday, Friday, Friday. Today's Friday. I'm Friday. I'm, I'm excited for Friday. Friday. Let's do this. Hope you had a Tyrese Halliburton Pacer shorted night and let' weekend. We're going to chop it up. But first and first, mostly we be rocking out. Let's go. All right now, Rich, the Pacers led the game for 0.3 seconds last night and that's all it took. Is that a Wild step, dude, OKC led the game for over 47 minutes. Pacers come in clutch with 0.3 seconds left. Halliburton is sort of building a legacy right before our eyes as super clutch superstar. That's debatable. Super clutch, not debatable. No doubt. Now you would think who's the, you know, most angry person about last night's 0.3 seconds victory? You might say, I don't know. SGA Thunder fans, I'm going to say Jay Z. Did you see that? Jay Z bet a million dollars that the Thunder would win in five games. So now Jay needs a four game sweep from this point on to win that. That bet. That was, you know, and to be honest, OKC and 5 seemed like a pretty reasonable guess until last night, in fact, until the last point three seconds of that game. So Jay Z not a happy camper on this Friday. I mean, it was a statement game, a statement play. He silenced everybody last night and you know, Monsieur very own Monsieur Bolanos from Fox Sports Radio, she went around the studio and asked everyone on the Fox Sports Radio team who they got. Yeah. And I quickly was like, yeah, okc. So was Rich. He said, A lot. You know why I think, Rich, you said in six. But I was very confident in what I said because I'm like, they're just too damn good. But after last night, you just really never know. And that's what makes it fun. And that's what we talked about, Rich, when you were at the Mets game yesterday, watching your team lose, Danny G. And I and Buyer, we're all here talking about how, yeah, it might not be great for the ratings, but we might get a great matchup where we look back and we say, this was the start of a great rivalry or a great legacy. And, man, we had a great battle last night. What a game. Well, you know, fans talk out of both sides of their mouth. Right. You know, fans will say, you know, no one wants the power team. You bought a team. You, you know, the big threes. And. And then when two teams from small markets actually build a winner and, you know, not pay a luxury tax and they're two smaller teams, people are mad about that. So I think no matter what, people just love to complain. Dan Buyer. It's. It's what people do. Yeah. And I just want to do this for Rich Davis's benefit only because I got back from vacation and you were at the ball game yesterday. But I've said, Rich, you know what? I've compared this series to Super Bowl 34, Titans, Rams, nobody really cared about those markets, but the Rams were an amazing team that regular season, and it produced one of the better Super Bowls that we had, especially leading up to that point. And I think it could be the same thing here. It was a reach away from going to overtime, right? Yes. You know what it is? Nobody cares. And ratings will suffer because of the small market attitude that we have towards these matchups in these games. It's really the casual fan that we're talking about. Casual fans aren't tuning in. And since when do we really care about them? I understand networks want them, but why do we care about the casual fans? I know you're saying guys that get all pumped when the Olympics come around, and that's just about it. But when you're saying no one cares, you're right. It's. We're talking about nincompoops. Right? Because that was a hell of a game, man, and we knew that was def. We knew that was likely to happen because they're two young, hungry, solid teams. And again, I'll say it one more time, we don't know what we want. Right. You can say that about relationships, family, work, everything. People think they want one thing. It's like, is that what you really want? Because you can't in one breath say, I don't want big market teams that buy championships. And then when two small market teams that built from within make it, and you're like, man, this is boring. I want big teams. You sound like an ass. You really do. You're tugging out of both sides of your big noggin. So, hey, last night, game one provided some excitement. Like you said, point three seconds is all it took. But listen, while other people analyze the game, I have a better question. I know you and I are on the same page with this because we're going to get to NFL. There's news, There's a funny Cam Scatter Boo story. Aaron Rodgers, we're going to pay tribute to our friends up in Canada today. We're going to weekend Hobnob. But after the game, you saw Halliburton throw those Pumas up on the podium. They're called the, I think they're called the hail ones. The Puma hail ones. They're Halliburton's first ever, ever signature shoe. So he made two statements last night. He made a statement with that last shot that he's the real deal or he comes in clutch, however you want to pose it. He's playing big. And he's also making a statement that, hey, here's my new shoe. I could bring Puma back. Well, there's your question. Can he. I mean, they're a solid shoe. I mean, they're not my color. I'm. I'm not into that look. But when you come through big like that and you're a young guy who's trying to buy the hottest new thing, you don't think that's a statement right there. You step up to the podium, I get the press conference after a Game 1 winning shot, and you drop those shoes. You basically drop them right there on the podium at the press conference. You're showing everybody like, I'm the man and these are the shoes that I wear. He might as well have dropped his junk on the table. It was like a junk drop. So I ask you, are those salmon colored also? Because. Whoa. Well, well, I'm saying the, the shoes, they look all right, but the color is. That's the thing. Not for me, Danny G. Maybe not for you. We're. We're more of a toned down sort of color person when it comes to our shoes. Or at least have the color as like an accent, not the entire shoe. Like a pinkish Shoe. These younger dudes will hop on that regardless, especially springtime, summertime. It's just not our style because it doesn't really go with anything. But you'll see some people trying to pull that off. But we ask you, based on this statement, he made two statements last night. Do you think that Tyrese Halliburton can make Puma cool again? And we're not saying that it's not cool, but it's not up there with Nike and Adidas. I mean, it's up there. Don't try to steal my Pumas the way you stole Travis Matthew from me. Hold on. I got to say this. I think you guys are looking at it slightly wrong because you're analyzing the actual shoe. It doesn't matter what the shoe looks like. If the guy is cool enough or the woman is cool enough, they make it cool. So I ask you, is Tyrese Halliburton cool enough to make something trendy? Meaning the Kardashians moments he's creating. Yeah. You think are helping the cause. I don't know how cool he is, but when you're playing big like that when it matters and you're dropping your junk on the podium at a press conference after it just happened, I think that sticks in a little kid's mind or a younger guy's mind to maybe make it cool. Well, flip it to women, right? Your wife will buy makeup based on some hottie influencer that starts doing a makeup tutorial on Instagram or Tick Tock. Right? The Kardashians took Champion sweatshirts, which were on the clearance racket, Modell Sporting goods and Dick Sporting Goods. Like, you know, the cheap ass champion sweatpants my parents would get me as a kid. They made Champion cool again because they're the Kardashians. Kylie Jenner told the world who her doctor was and what exactly she did to get the perfect boob job. Hundreds of thousands of women want copycat work done now. So does Tyrese Halberton have that influence? Is the question. He's cool. He's a winner, he's clutch. But his Tyrese Halliburton. Stephen A. Says he's not a superstar, but Camino. Is he a trendy enough NBA player where kids will be like, yo, those are the Halliburtons. I think the moment speaks volumes. I really do. I think every kid was watching that. Every young man was watching that, and they're like, yo, they're the ones that are influenced here. Not me, not you, not Danny G. We're in our lane. We get what we like, but yes. The answer, I think, is yes. And that's how trends start. That's how trends work. That was a big moment. You know, that was the press conference after a big shot. And he dropped them on the table. I don't know if you guys missed it. What I don't like is the color. We established that the salmon. But I think Puma could be back. It's never left for Danny G. But, Rich, fun fact. You know the Dossler brothers are the ones who created Puma, right? You know Adi Dassler. Adidas. Yeah, Adidas. The brothers split. They split up. They had a feud. That's the legendary story. Two German brothers, German cobblers. It was a pretty big split up. It was like. It was like Musk and Trump. Like, it was. It was. Well, I don't know if it was that heated, but what happened was, you know, Adi Dossler said, you know what? This is my company. He created Adidas. Adi Dassler. Wait, they're in the part two. Rudy Dossler said, well, screw you and your weak ass shoe. I'm starting Puma. And, dude, this is like early 1900s. So it's really never left. It's been around forever. But is it the comeback? I'm just dropping a little fun fact for you. Can Halliburton make it the shoe again to rival the brother shoe Adidas? I mean, when Halliburton, what did he say? He's like Stephen a Chalamet, Whatever. Pacers and six. If he keeps playing to the fans and the camera, I think he could become that guy. I think the NBA and sports needs these, you know, Unless you're just nailing threes and you're Steph Curry and you're all subdued and like, you know, a nice guy, I think. I think you should lean into it. Lean into the fact that his pops is a little nuts. And I think Halburn has potential. Yeah. And did you see him with SVP after the game where. Yeah, he was joking with him, admitting he was late to the Pacers party. And Halliburton said we were late too, based on that. Have you ever been influenced on a purchase from an athlete at any point in your life? Like, did you buy cologne just because Jeter wore it? I didn't believe it or not. But I'm saying, was there ever a product that you bought just because the athlete that you admired or the moment you admired influenced you? What does Jeter smell like? I don't know. But he had cologne, right? Didn't Jordan have cologne, too? Success Rich, you know, gift baskets. I remember there was a commercial success. Now we don't currently have a deal with Ford. Right. Okay, good. When Jeter was doing those commercials, and he's like, you know, Jeter's got the edge. I'm like, derek Jeer doesn't drive a Ford Edge. Give me a break. Stop it. He's had one. It's like, I bet he had one, though. He probably gifted him one. Gave him one. But I'm saying it's like when Shaq would do a car commercial and hop in some little car. You're like, you think Shaq drives that? Get the hell out of here. I don't believe it. I think Michael Jordan is the, like, number one answer. And then you could go a million pegs below that and be like other influential athletes with merch and products. I do think that Halliburton, if they win the NBA Finals, Puma will reap the benefits. I guarantee you bigly. I, George Foreman, guarantee you. You probably bought the grill because he told you to. That every preteen teenage guy we kneel, who watches NBA saw that moment. And they're like, yo, those are hot. We gotta get those. If not out loud, subconsciously, because even me, and I'm in my 40s, when I saw this, I was like, what are those? And I didn't say that in a bad way. I didn't like the color, but I was curious and I had to look them up. And they're his first signature shoe. And what a perfect. By the way, hey, you remember when Tiger woods hit that shot and then the little Nike logo was right there, perfectly placed, like, that was a perfect moment to promote that shoe. He hits that shot, here's the shoe. Bam. Like, Puma couldn't ask for anything cooler or better than that in the moment. And like I said, when I saw it, I knew what he was doing. And I looked it up immediately I'm like, what are those? And I found it on Twitter instantly. It's his first shoe. They're called the hail ones. Hallie Burton. I don't think Halliburton's really, like. I don't know if he's known as, like, a cool, smooth dude. Doesn't matter to me. What he's doing on the court is what speaks volumes. So I think, yes, I think he can make it cool. You know, I was thinking about athletes that have influenced us with products and sneakers and merch. I watched the documentary because I'm so high brow, sophisticated. That's what people think of Me, Right, Kavino, of course. Yeah, exactly. Everybody, I was watching a documentary about coffee. I'm not even joking. On the History Channel. It was the origins of coffee. How we went from just, you know, Danny G. People used to get beans, they'd roast them in their house, grind them up, and filter them through like an old sock. Like. And then it was like Young Folger and Maxwell House. And there was the origins of coffee. Yeah, the riper the sock, the better the coffee. And, yeah, the old dirty sweat socks. That's what Common said on a TV show. So I bring that up not because I want to tell you that I watch a coffee documentary back in the day. Joe DiMaggio, his endorsement of the Mr. Coffee coffee pot was the reason they say it sold millions, because he was just such a trusted voice. Dude, he had that song, Joe. Joe DiMaggio. He's like, you wanna say. But when. When Joe was like, hey, Joe DiMaggio here, Mr. Coffee. And he showed you that he had a home coffee pot that was, like, revolutionary. It sold millions. And I know you said George Foreman with the grill. Dude, he was with Marilyn Monroe. He had that old Timey Time song that everybody loved. He was the Yankee Clipper. If he told you to drink that coffee, people did. I think we're not as ambitious to do that now. Most people. But young people absolutely are influenced by the right person. And I don't know if Tyrese Halliburton is the right person, but he's the right person right now in the right moment. You see what I'm saying? Like, that's why it was a perfect storm of perfection. It was just the perfect moment for what had just happened. Well, hold on. I got. You know, this is a question for real. I want to ask our Covino and Rich, FOX Sports Radio audience, the cnr Fox Sports Nation. You really got to get in the mindset of a guy who's, like, 13, bro, you nailed it. I was gonna say, if you have teenage boys and you're living that dad life or mama, Right. Who and what influences your son? Because my daughter's older than my son. My son's only five. He likes baseball cards, and he thinks Ohtani and Lindor are cool because he didn't. He's into baseball now. Hey, he's not wrong. Those are two great guys. I know. But he's like, yeah, Benny boy. Who do you like? Dad, I like Ohtani and Lindor. Good choices, Palace. But you know what influences women? And because it's obvious, makeup tutorials. These girls that do a day in the life and watch me do my get ready routine. And that's how these young women make millions of dollars. Cuz women buy other women's outfits and wardrobes and hair products and makeup and you know, a girl gets good Botox. Everyone wants to know where Kylie Jenner's got perfect boobs. Every girl wants to know who her surgeon is. What influences when that guy. Social media. And that clip was viral all over, not only on television, all over social media last night. Who influences young men? Is it, is it a sneaker of a star athlete? Because I'm, I'm really thinking like anything that goes viral, like that guy, Ashton hall, nobody knew who he was. He did his morning routine. He was using Saratoga spring water. Next thing you know, everybody's trying to buy that, to watch their face with it and to drink it and to feel young again. It just takes that right moment and that's exactly what it was last night. So Puma, something you grew up with I'm sure you're gonna see again. Again. Not that it ever left. I got a pair of Pumas. Danny's got a pair of Pumas. But it's not the upper echelon of shoe anymore. I have four pair of Puma. Yeah, no, they're dope. I mean, I like the suede low tops. So these are a little. As far as a basketball sneaker, though I don't see that many. I like the design. I just like we established the color is. By the way, I was looking at a Holly one article here cove, and it says that the official color of his shoes are hibiscus. Oh, it's a hibiscus rose color. I do wonder though, what athletes come to mind? Is it a Bryce Harper? Because I know he's got a lot of baseball gear. I see the young kids have. Who is it? Is it some international soccer players that have that poll? Is it still Lebron and Steph? Like, who are these star athletes that it's going to be guys like this? That's what I'm saying. Like there's got to be someone that's next because everyone still rocks their Jordan. Still a billion dollar brand. Who comes to mind for you? Well, you think of Steph Curry, you think Under Armour. And that's not exactly where it once was. New Balance has a very impressive list of paid endorsers like Shohei Ohtani, Jamal Murray, Kawhi Leonard, Cameron Brink. But are people flocking to New Balance because they have like probably the most. One of the best list of Athletes, they have a young roster. I still think those shoes are ugly. Give me a. Give me this. You would probably know. Who's Caitlin Clark hooked up with? Nike. Nike. But is there, by the way, speaking of Nike, Rich, right there, a rush for, like a Caitlin Clark product. They're young women being like, I need the Caitlyn Clarks, but I haven't heard it. Have you heard it? It's just not you. Yeah, she's pretty. She's pretty out there. And she promotes her shoe. She promotes different types of shoes. She wears, like a Kobe inspired Nike, I think. I think those are selling pretty well. So again, he dropped the Halle, won the Puma. Halley won his first signature shoe on the podium yesterday. All smiles, sunglasses. They look pink to me, but you're right, they're like a salmon color. Danny G. So again, not my vibe. But he also tweeted out Tyrese Halliburton. Ty Halliburton 22. It's got to be the shoes. Which is a Nike endorsement, is it not? Speaking of Nike, it's got to be that Spike Lee. It's got to be the shoes. But again, we're talking Pumas here. Am I the only one waiting for the Angel Reese Reeboks? I thought I was doing some work around the house. There's Angel Reese Bricks you could buy. Oh, no. He followed what I said, Rich. He used the Nike tagline to promote his Pumas last night. Yeah, but I don't think any young person knows who Spike Lee is or a slogan from the 90s. They weren't born yet. But I just find it ironic and find it kind of funny, don't you think? And Rich, this article just from a couple of days ago. Caitlin Clark and Nike dropped the Kobe 5. Indiana Fever. They're called the rookie of the year and they are cool. They're like silver and red. I think they look pretty neat. I would also say that one of the more popular shoes right now is the Sabrina Unescu Nike. And when you're talking about, like, name brand, like, it doesn't always have to be the top, top guy, but when you're talking about shoes, there's this avenue. There's, you know, that's something that. When Caitlin Clark got hurt, did they pause the season or. No, they're still. Are they still playing? Oh, okay. I didn't know that wasn't true. Her tweets about the Pacers in that game are getting, like, millions of views. She's very popular. Did you guys think it was weird when Halliburton also said, where's the beef last night? No. Did you catch that? I thought it was crazy that he was using an old Wendy's tagline. I like Halliburton, man. I think he's. I think he's. He's. For his age, he speaks very well. I remember that. He's like, yo, game two. Can't wait. Time to make the donuts. And I was like, man, I thought that was. I thought that was weird. It's crazy. Yeah. You don't think someone in Nike is like, yo, and they're promoting this new shoe with our old tagline? That's crazy. So you're right. Your thoughts, Tyrese Halliburton, the way he's playing. Game winning shots, three of them now. Right. Like, this guy's playing out of his mind. Indiana got a good storyline going on right now. But could he make Puma? Ifga was the man, he'd hit a game winning shot and drop his ponies on the podium for the next press conference. Well, hey, listen, your thoughts on Halliburton. And we will get to some Canada news. The Edmonton Oilers about to do some big things. Camp Scatterboo is in the news, but we got some breaking news right now. Baseball. Let's go. Breaking news from Fox Sports, guys. It was expected, but Arizona Diamondback pitcher Corbin Burns will need Tommy John surgery in the first year of a $210 million deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Burns is expected to miss the rest of this season and potentially all of the 2026 season. Corbin Burns needs Tommy John surgery. Yikes. And I'll be honest, in a very tight, competitive NL west, you lose your ace like that, and you're trying to compete with the Giants, the Padres, and of course, the Dodgers. Good luck. Good luck, Arizona. That's. That's a tough loss for them. So thank you, db, for the update. We got more kavin on Rich on a Friday right here, Fox Sports Radio.

There's a swing in my step and a nickel in my pocket doodle. Well, if the Yankee clipper can make Mr. Coffee cool, Halliburton is going to make Puma cool. No doubt because of the moment. What an endorsement. Last night. Live from Fox Sports Radio studios is Cavino Enrich. Brought to you by Travis Matthew Apparel. We're making Travis Matthew cool, am I right?

I know you want to talk some cam, scatter, boo and a bunch of stuff but rich have you like that to be Adam Sandler's favorite? Oh, yes. Oh, I love me some. I'll give you the credit. Danny G super producing on the phones at 87799 on Fox. Danny G keeps it old school, keeps it fresh to death. He wears his British knights. He wears his Nikes. British wears his pumas, right? I love the puma because they look like the low top run DMC show shoes from back in the day. Right Now I'm like, well, I never said pumas weren't cool, but maybe we misspoke a little bit, Rich, because we're not thinking global, okay? We like pumas. We grew up with it. Truck stop fungus hits us up at Covino and rich, what up, truck stop fungus? He goes, pumas have always been cool. I back up. Danny G should get that looked at. So I Look it up. I went to my boy Chat GPT and I said, what are the top selling shoe brands? Do you want to hear them real quick? Can I guess? Globally? I'll give you the top 10. I'll do it like Spider Harrison if you want. Yeah. Weekend countdown, good. All right, here's a list of the top selling shoe brands globally based on revenue, market presence and sales volume from 2024. Coming in at number 10, Fila. Now you would have never thought that it would crack the top 10. But globally, Fila still, what is it? Still making a billion revenue a year. Fila. Okay, coming in number nine, a six. Okay, running shoe. Running shoes. Number eight, Under Armour. Now they had a spike when Canelo and Steph Curry and all these young athletes they were signing were booming, but, but since then, not as much. Okay, coming in at number seven, vans. With the street culture vans is number seven. Coming at number six, Converse, owned by Nike. In the casual lifestyle sector, 2,3 billion a year, I think just based on Converse alone, on just. What do you call them? The Chucks. Like the Chuck Taylors. You got to remember Chuck Taylor's is probably that alone. Number six. Coming in number five, New Balance. Popular among athletes and streetwear fans. Five billion a year. Also known as dad shoes from the USA by the way. Dad shoes or like young kid shoes. Like I know it's weird, it's like you're. If you have New Balance, you're either a 55 year old dad mowing his lawn or you're a trendy 16 year old. But this is why we have misconceptions like Dave Concepcion. We have misconceptions here because coming in at number four, Skechers, 7 to 8 billion a year. That's why they have standalone Sketcher stores. I was gonna say that. I could see that just because in the city I live in, I've seen two standalone Skecher stores and they're massive. And I asked Linda recently, Warehouses. Yeah. How do they stay open? You know how walking casual categories. My mother in law bought my kids Skechers. I'm like, why are you doing that? I mean they're afford. I own a pair of pairs of sketches. They're affordable and they're comfortable. They are, they're very affordable. They're great. They're a quality shoe priced. They got that whole Snoop Dogg line now with the slide on. So they're trying to market to sell me on the Snoop Dogg line. Snoop is aging. He needs some easy to slip on shoes. I mean Skechers, I Feel so do you. Apparently. Skechers. Yep. But this is why we might be off. Because coming in at number three, top three selling shoe in the world is Puma. Five to six billion a year. Gaining popularity big in Europe through celebrity collaborations and performance wear. And after last night, I, George Foreman, guarantee that you're gonna see a spike. Just like you see people who do a Super bowl performance or whatever, their music automatically spikes the next day. I guarantee we're gonna hear a story that because of the shot Halliburton made, that the Halle ones are selling through the roof because kids will jump on it. Number two is Adidas. Number one is Nike. So when we say not cool again, yo, maybe we're not wearing wearing them, but they're still being sold a lot. I'll tell you what, out of the top 10 you just mentioned, only a few of them surprised me. The fact that Fila is In the top 10 shocked me. Global, though I haven't seen a pair of Fila. What are some Italian kids rocking filers? Like in Sicily? Like, who's wearing Filas? You see them at discount stores like Marshalls and places like that. Yeah, they're originally from Italy, but South Korea. So popular. Chunky sneaker trend in the Asian countries. Dude, I just came back from Japan. Everybody was wearing those big, chunky, clunky shoes. Platform shoes. Well, a six, I understand. Under Armour. Yeah. Vans, of course. Converse. Based on the Chuck Taylors. New Balance. Like I said, old guys watering the lawn or young trendy kids. Puma, Adidas and Nike. Number four Skechers. Again, I get it. You go to the mall, there's standalone stores and warehouses. But to me, I've never seen someone rock some Skechers as a grown up and be like, yo, sweet shoes. I really haven't. Not to be rude, but I've worn Skechers here. And Covino has complimented my Skechers before. I think he was lying, Sam. I think he was lying. I'm not. No, I was like, sweet shoes, bro. Last year I had a pair of them that were all black and they didn't have the S or anything. And that's why I bought them, because they were really comfortable and they didn't say Skechers, which I liked. That's the key. I used to say that Old Navy's biggest mistake back in the day was plastering Old Navy on everything. Because it would be like, I want to advertise, like, you know, a cheap mall brand Skechers. To me, even if it looks cool, that S is Weak as could be. Super weak. And I'm not a big sneaker head by any means at all. I just, to me, I don't know, any friend that's 30, 40 or 50 something that's ever been like, yes, Skechers. But then again, you know what, I'm surprised. I guess it's too niche. But know what I see a lot of now? Hoka, those running shoes. Oh, yeah, very comfortable. Yeah, like waitresses and waiters get those as well. It was school dads in la. Like globally, it's a different story. Yeah. All right, what do I know? Let's go to your phone calls and we'll go to DB for an update. Say what's up to Matt in Alaska. Hey, Matt. Hey. What's going on, guys? I was having a pretty good conversation with Dan on the phone. I think you guys are reaching a little bit on the Pumas. I mean, there's only one reason he put them on the, on the podium and that's because that's really the only way any of us were going to find out about them. I understand Puma is a global brand because they're big in the soccer world, but I don't see it catching on here in the States except in the state of Indiana and maybe where, where Halliburton's from and then wherever he went to college. But I would. How do you think things trend and spike after moments like that? I think we're gonna see it. I'm not saying he's Michael Jordan by any means, Matt, but if you watch that movie Air, which I thought was great, by the way, you know, Nike was a running shoe that was, you know, not making a bunch of money and they took a chance on Michael Jordan. I'm not saying the same with the Halliburtons, but still, you're right. A winner and some success. We don't think like a young person in that way. Because you would never wear those. They look pink. My eyes see pink. I'm like, I would never wear pink shoes. They're not pink. Cavino. What are they, Sam? Hibiscus. Yeah. Some young sparkling rose white wine. Some young alpaca headed. Alpaca bro with the broccoli haircut would rock those in a second, by the way. You know what? I wouldn't have been shocked if it was on this list. I know it's not a sneaker, but yeah, we make fun of them so much. But how many young kids rock Crocs over the last decade when we just made fun of them? Right. I Mean, they sold millions. So, you know, trends are in a different category. I don't know. Matt, you're on in SoCal. What's up, man? Yo, Covino and Rich. Natural context back by sincere bs. And that was a lot of sincere BS this week. You guys. You guys had some really good shows this week. Oh, thanks, man. Real quick. I'll go as fast I can. I'm. I just scouting on social media for high school and college basketball. One thing on Skechers. Skechers is making a push. They were at the biggest SoCal basketball tournament this year back in December. Also, the Puma thing, like, you have your circuits out there, especially on the club side. Nike, eybl, they're the king. You don't touch them. But then there's those other tiers. We have Adidas, Under Armour, and Puma. And I was at the Puma circuit this past year. And when you compare the talent, you compare the intention, and you compare what they're trying to do. I don't mind putting them already in the category as Adidas and Under Armour. And again, you're looking at their target. I mean, it's not so much TV and ratings, but social media is their target. And I think they're nailing it. Just the way kids are on their phones and stuff like that. And you look at the colors and everything else and the product they're putting out currently, they're doing a heck of a job and keeping up. That's a great point, and that's great insight. And you have to remember what's on the downside of the trends, in our opinion, in our. Our mind is on the upswing. Maybe to a younger person like Rich. My daughter was telling me I have a teenage daughter. She's in high school, right? So I'm always seeing what these kids are wearing, what's coming back. Everything comes back. You know what she's telling me, dad, Hollister is a big thing. I'm like, hollister's a big thing again. Like, to me, that's on the downswing. But a young kid who never was influenced in that way, it's on the upswing. Tell me when Eric Style's hot again. All right, let's go to. Let's go to Dan Buyer for an update. DB what's doing, man? So, guys, there was this Reddit THR that was tracking the most popular shoe in the NBA worn by players. This year, the most popular shoe worn was the Nike Kobe 6, which logged about 63,000 minutes. Wow. The second most popular, the Sabrina 2, the Sabrina Unescu, as I told you, really cool. Yeah. When it comes to the Nike, her signature shoe, the second version of it, popular throughout the NBA. No Game two tonight. That'll have to wait until Sunday night. Pacers and thunder, 8 o' clock Eastern Time Sunday from Oklahoma City City. Pacers up 1 0. A report from NBA insider Mark Stein says the Knicks are expected to make a formal request to interview Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd for their coaching vacancy on the ice tonight in Edmonton Oilers, home to the panthers for game two of the Stanley Cup Final. Oilers up 10 in the best of seven series. Dallas Stars fired at coach Pete DeBoer today after the team fell in the Western Conference finals to Edmonton for the second straight season at the French Open. Top seed Yannick Sinner one in straight sets over six seed Novak Djokovic. Sinner will now face Carlos Alcaraz, the second seed, in the final. Alcaraz advanced today after eight seed Lorenzo Musetti retired in the fourth set because of an injury. Raised up the Marlins 4 3. We told you earlier with the breaking news that Diamondbacks pitcher Corbin Burns is going to miss the rest of this season and possibly all of next season as he needs Tommy John surgery. Cameron Champ leads the RBC Canadian Open right now at 12 under par. Guys, back to you. Thank you. DB and Covino, the same way you said your daughter, you sort of keep an eye on the trends because you have a teenager. Tonight I'm going to the the pony ball, I guess, like a little banquet thing where all the all star kids have to show up for a nice dinner and everyone's in full uniform with equipment and stuff. So with that said, I'm going to, in a not weird way, I'm going to take a look around. I'm curious what cleats and what gear all these kids have. Is it Under Armour, is it Nike? Like what sports equipment brands do you think all these kids are rocking? Like, what comes to mind for you when it comes to cleats? Yeah, man, I don't know. I have no idea. Right? It's like, you know, you step away for a second, I will report back and I'll let you know. But again, trends are always changing. So good luck to Halliburton and Puma. All right. Props on that shot, dude. That was insane. No doubt. All right, we got more Covino and Rich. We're going to say what's up to Canada. We're going to pay tribute as the Edmonton Oilers getting closer to winning an NHL Stanley Cup. Camp Scatterboo is this guy the most funny clueless dude ever?

My Adidas 1984 I believe, right? 86. This is 86. Yeah. I have the 6. I have the CD single of this. Bought it at Crazy Eddies and get to a smy. Adidas led to the group signing a 1.6 million endorsement deal with Adidas and they had that long term relationship. And like you were saying, Danny G off the air. That opened the door for, for all those NBA endorsements. It really did. This was the first time rap group collaborated with a major athletic brand. So it paved the way for all these collaborations between musicians and brands. You never, you know who never got a thing and he's mad about it. Nelly, Air Force Ones. He always claims that he made Air Force Ones way more popular. He's like they doubled in sales. The price doubled. But I saw nothing. That's like Nelly's big grind.

Of all the people, the other people to beat the Mets yesterday. Well, first of all, the Mets beat themselves with Beatty making that weak ass error like double clutching when. When he was dead at home plate. Worst play I've seen all year. But Michael Confardo. Yeah, I said Confardo. That guy stinks. I mean he's betting 160. He gets a game winning hit. Could he retire now? Now that he, you know, beat his old team? Yo, Danny G, you got to hate that guy. No, I like him now. And Rich, have you ever won yet at Dodger Stadium? I feel like. I feel like you're oh and six James there. No, I'm way where my kids, I've gone without them. I'm on a cold streak. My kids are 05. They've never seen the Mets win in person.
