We got to talk about what people say on social media. Do you take their word for it or is it all bs? I want you to think about that now because we'll get into it later. We obviously know that people brag a lot on social media. We often say, are you bragging or sharing? You're really just bragging, right? So one big brag 90% of the time and we've learned that what we see isn't always real. But what about the stuff they're posting, the things that people say? Do you put any credibility into that? I mean, social media is an extension of you, but is it? There's a story involving Antonio Brown and another one involving the Pope. Never thought I would have that sentence. Exactly. So we have lots to get to, including last one standing. We do it every Monday. We're gonna do some trivia. Your chance to win a seeing our swiggy with the swaggy, our stainless steel water bottle.

And DB's got your updates spots on our videos at Covino and Rich. Let the wild rumpus start. How was your Mother's Day weekend, man? It was a lot of as most people could relate a lot of kids sports used to pool a lot this weekend it was, it was weekend one kid sports and water sports of the, of the pool. Just dude cannonballs and dives and feel like I spent Saturday and Sunday belly flops. You know as you say when you have kids by the pool, you just making sure you keep everyone alive. Yeah. That's your job as a parent. Don't, don't do anything dumb. Kids. Don't go dying on me. Oh yeah. So yeah, that was a good weekend. Happy Mother's Day. Hopefully like you said, you enjoyed your NBA. Now the NBA in the news on a Monday and it has nothing really to do with the playoffs you would think, man. Is it about how the Knicks might just give this series right back to the Celtics today? Is it about can the warriors just hold on without Steph until he recovers? No, the story is about Michael Jordan and the story is about NBC. I couldn't believe my eyes when I read the story cuz I was like what who? It just seems so weird. And that's really what we're asking. What who, where, why? We're actually asking more of the why who Now I'm not complaining who the who is. Everybody knows who is Michael Jordan or as they're calling now, special contributor for NBA on NBC. And Peacock starting next year 2026. Special contributors. The most vague stuff you could say that way they could figure it out later. Special contributor could mean one time he does a sit down interview. Or special contributor can mean he's part of the weekly coverage or analysis. Right. And that would be crazy because we don't know Michael Jordan on that level. That was part of the reason why we loved him so much. There was so much mystique around the guy. Like you referenced earlier, Rich, on our Patreon show. Yeah, we know how he felt about certain players like Kobe and you know, LeBron. He never gave LeBron really the love that I think LeBron wanted from him. We know how he feels here and there. But as far as game to game, day to day analysis, we never got that sort of insight from a Michael Jordan. So that's like a weird place to see him. And then you have to ask yourself, well, he doesn't need the money, so why there's something cool about his mystique. Now he's putting himself out there to be speculated upon, much like Tom Brady in the booth. You know, it's like, did Tom really need that? Well, there's life after sports or life after the field and on the court. My thinking is simply Michael Jordan. We saw the Last Dance during COVID and what I think struck people was, oh, wow, he's a competitive maniac. Yeah. Wow. Michael Jordan. We didn't know. We heard and we could assume, but we never heard those backstories. Like, he's competing with the security guy. Yeah, you heard the stories, but not like the full stories. Right. And you know the whole joke of him looking at the iPad? I took that seriously. Michael Jordan, we learned a lot more about him through a documentary. Because you're right. There is a mystique and a mystery, oddly enough, about the most popular sports icon of our lifetime. So the fact that he's going to be doing anything with coverage, like, we know Shaq and Barkley, they like to bust each other's chops trying to step into my world. They make fun of each other, yet they mock the game now. And that's a little counterproductive. Ernie, MJ Trying to be like me. That whole crew is fantastic. Right, Ernie, Kenny, you got the broadcasting chops like Shaq, Diesel and Charles, but what does a guy like Michael Jordan bring to the table, which is where we open it up to you. What do you want to see? And by the way, Michael Jordan doing, does he start cutting in like the other old heads, like the Barclays and Shaqs of the world, where they're just dumping on these younger dudes? Because that might be a bad look, too. That might be something we don't want to see from Michael Jordan. Or are you interested in his insight? I am, but I don't know if that's what we're going to get. But would it be now an interviewer like you referenced, Would it be possible? Counterproductive Camino of Michael Jordan just hops on NBC and starts talking about load management and soft players and all. Because that's what the league doesn't need. They don't need another veteran hall of Famer dumping on the league. Yeah. So is Jordan become like the NBC cheerleader? Right, right, right. You know, really interesting stuff. Michael Jordan, breaking news this morning. I was like, what? And then your mind thinks the worst and then you read the little story, you're like special contributor. What does that even mean, contributor? Okay, I can meet a wide variety of things and he's a special guy. So he's special contributor coming next season for the NBA. A brand like his and a name like his can only help the league. But again, I think the biggest question is why. Maybe he could for only so many decades. He's just bored and that's it. Be like rich and awesome. Like what if Michael Jordan's like, I could go take my private jet to play golf anywhere. You know, I could just sit back and watch my billions. Yeah. But in today's world accumulate when you're putting yourself out there and you're putting your opinions out there and it's a two way street of social media. Like he is setting himself up for extra criticism and back and forth with these players and he may be exposed with his opinions and his thoughts where he never was before. And that's why he maintained the level of awesomeness in our minds as we didn't know all about Michael Jordan. Well, he does keep himself busy with nascar. He's the co owner of a team slaying it there. Yeah, he's there at the garage throughout the week and then of course on race days he's there with the team. So he's kept himself competitive with that sport. So it would surprise me if he has a full time role with NBC. Maybe if you remove yourself from something long enough you could come back in with a fresh set of eyes. Maybe up until recently Michael still feels like I'm too close to the game, connected. I'm too connected. I played with players that are still playing or you know, I mean that's ended a little while now, but still maybe, maybe that was sort of the money. Now it's just time. Yeah, I'm curious to see, you know, what inspired him because here's the few factors. He can't be the money. Right. You would assume can't be between racing stuff and his branding stuff, Nike and everything else. Can't be the money that enticed him. So the why is most likely because he feels that he has something that we want to see. Some insight that is intriguing interviewing skills that we never thought about. Maybe. I mean does he have something or just straight boredom like, like Rich said the time is right. Like he's just bored and it's time to get back to what really defines Michael Jordan, which is basketball. He said something a few minutes ago to Danny and it's a really interesting Point that's, I think, a big factor. What'd I say? You said, Michael Jordan has never lived in a world where what he says and does is open for a back and forth and a criticism. Michael Jordan did what he did. Who's going to question him? A Chicago reporter. Yeah, we had like a young player be like, man, Michael, shut up, man. He doesn't know what he's talking about. There's. There's never been a world where Michael Jordan, after a while, had to answer it to anyone because the reporters all looked at him as like an icon. You know, he. He left. He won three in a row, left, came back, won three in a row. And even when he was a wizard, there was a sense of like, he's doing it for, like, the good of the league. Like, what a guy, by the way, he's so revered and he's so smart. Special, special contributor Michael Jordan to get criticism from Shaq and Barkley. It's expected at this point. Right. We all know that Shaq and Barkley's not kissing anyone's ass. But imagine growing up idolizing Michael Jordan and now he's the guy dumping on your game or it's going to sting in a whole new way. What if Michael takes a liking and throws, like, ridiculous props to someone in particular, like an Anthony Edwards, like, it's an Edward. Or maybe he's like, you guys might not see yet, but Michael Jordan here, when Benyama is going to win six or more, like I did, like, he could very well throw some heavy weight. Let me ask you, Rich, behind someone as a broadcaster, you know, has he found his new basketball or is he going to be more of a baseball guy? Do you think he's going to be great or you think he's going to be struggling a little bit? Or are we looking way too into it? Because special contributor means he's just doing some minor stuff. To me, this feels like NBC just trying to use his name, lean into the nostalgia of what they were known for when we were kids. Especially with the AI story we're going to get to and everything. That's what. And the John Tesh. Yeah. That's what I took away from it, is that they want to flash us back and bring that feeling back. Everything with NBA and NBC, a marketing, it's just a marketing tickles the, the nostalgia huevos. It really does. Like, tickles your fancy. Yeah. But you don't get a Michael Jordan unless he wants to do it. Yeah, great move for the NBA. But there's got to be Great incentive for this dude. He has too much to lose. I mean, we're getting the return of Round Ball Rock, which is maybe the best sports theme ever. You can play the SNL1. I want. Ba ba ba. Basketball. Let's do that one, Sam. Why not? That's a good one. It's all good. Basketball gimmick. Gimme. Maybe they lean into this one. These are the lyrics. A lot of people don't know that. So they bring it back. Round Ball Rock. What's your first reaction when you saw the breaking news? Michael Jordan, like shock. Like, oh, wow, that's. Or interest or why or. Honestly, my. My first thought was why? Because again, he's. He's a billionaire. His golf brand, his chilling. He's doing what he wants. He could, you know, if Michael Jordan wants to buy a racing company or whatever he wants to do. Here, here's the thing. Here, here's what I thought. And I want to hear what DB thinks too. I thought to myself, Michael Jordan lived and played in a time where he got away with so much and yet we still loved him because we didn't know all the backstories, right? We didn't know. And he survived a world without social media, so he just slid by. It's like our parents in a way. You know how they. Dad never checked in. He was probably at the nudie bar, but he just grew up in that time and we loved him for it. Anyway, dad got home late because he was at the nudie bar. Michael Jordan, we don't know what he was up to. We don't know what he was thinking. And he got away in a time where it didn't exist. And Michael Jordan so big, Cavino, that I feel like we all the. The collective us think that Michael Jordan's probably too good for social media, right? So why enter a world now where I don't know if he has the equipment to survive? Like, does he have the social media skills to combat with today's annoying person? Does he want to expose himself in this way? Set himself up for again, media scrutiny of today? He got away with it scot free back then. Like now he's putting himself out there to be exposed with anything he does or says. Is that really worth it? And is there anyone that doesn't love Jordan? He's so loved. Like he's a different world. He's entering that social media world is brutal. I don't hate Michael Jordan, but I definitely did not cheer for him in the bulls in the 90s, you know, like in that case. I don't think that there's any way that he is exposed in this scenario to get him to do this. They're not going to say, Michael, how do you think Pacers, Cavs sorts out? I just. I don't think that's not his. No, not analysis on his wheelhouse. Yeah, that's. So then what his first interview is with Chicago born the Pope. Michael sits down with. The Pope. Michael sits down with. Maybe it's like, maybe it is an interview thing. Special contributor is the story for NBA on NBC. This isn't Charles Barkley sitting on the desk of Inside the NBA. People think that that's. This is special contributor. So everything is going to be packaged. Also, when you look at the Last Dance, it was so heavily slanted towards Jordan. Jordan had the last word in everything. And I think my opinion of why he's doing this is he still wants his last word. We're at a point where LeBron's career is coming to an end. We are also at a point where we're getting just further and further away from Michael Jordan's career as it is. And I think that he still wants that voice for his career and his generation and that final, you know, final word. He didn't do the Last Dance to have people tarnish his legacy. He did it to try to increase the legacy and show everybody what he was all about. To a generation that wasn't familiar with what he accomplished, I would have to think that that would be the reason why he does something like this. Yeah. And he has a team of brand people, I'm sure, that are steering ship and advice on what's great for the brand for the future. That's a great point. There's going to be no. Who do you think Brooklyn's going to take with the sixth pick like that is. That is not why you have Michael Jordan there. Unless at any point. Unless. Unless he records a version of everything and then they do a post game and it looks like he just knows everything. Jordan's crab. Let's see who Mike liked, the. The Knicks or Celtics? Well, I'll tell you, I feel like game four. Celtics probably by six. Celtics by six. He knows you're familiar with this in radio. Rich people do this in radio to make sure they have their. Their butts covered for Monday. Yeah, maybe their version of Tony Romo you can just call things before they happen. Exactly. Imagine he's just. Or maybe, you know, speaking of marketing and things like that, in today's world, we've seen guys like Tom Brady, who's also a goat pivot to a guy that we didn't really know a whole lot about. Like, to a guy with a lot of personality to share. Like, we just started to learn about Tom Brady in the past few years. Like, really know about the guy. Right. Because he was under Belichick's wing and they kept business. Business. We didn't know about Tom Brady. The guy. Maybe he's seen the good it's done for a guy like Tom Brady and he feels he has something to add. But not everybody's kind in this world of social media, man. And you said it, Rich. Michael Jordan's such a beloved hero of ours that it'd be interesting to see people hating on him because of a misstep he may have or something he says or his opinion. And that might not be the case at all. Perhaps Dan Byers. Right. That's not what we're going to get from this situation. If I were Michael Jordan, I would go around telling people today that Nike's up 10% today, not because of the tariffs, but because of this announcement. Because I just looked at Nike stock and I'm like, man, that's right. The tariff thing. Yes. But. Yes. You don't know. You don't think that's kind of part of it? Because when I think Nike, I think Jordan. Nike's one of the top three brands that will benefit from tariffs. To DB's point, if it's to protect his legacy and his era of basketball, bring back Ahmad Rashad, and they could do like a Throwback Thursday type thing we do where they do like, you know, the throwback throw jam. Is that backwards marketing, or would you say Jordan's the exception? You want to appeal to the younger guys. You do, but in this age nowadays, I mean, my teenagers ask about Michael Jordan all the time and look at his YouTube clips. And it's the ultimate in connecting generations of Michael Jordan. If Michael Jordan could bridge that gap of, like, father, son, or mother, daughter, mother, son, watching a game and being like, yeah, Michael Jordan, watch him. He's sitting down and you know. Or do you think NBC threw some money at him that he couldn't refuse? No, I don't think this. No, I don't think so either. I don't think. Again, we're just asking the why. Maybe the timing's right, like you said. Like you said, rich people get bored after a while. Maybe he's done golfing with the style. NBC's presenting how this looks like it's going to be, you know, A flashback to what they were famous for. Then I feel like it's connecting the. It's a bridge. Like you said, it's a bridge. Hey, and you may think we're over speculating, guys, that's fine. But we've never really got to know Michael Jordan in that way. And he's probably the biggest icon. He is the biggest living sports icon, period. No. Is there another one? You could say a soccer star for debate right here in this country is Michael Jordan. No. I don't care. Soccer star or not messy. When you look at the numbers, dude, their social media, then you're talking about social media numbers. Those are worldwide worldwide impact. I'm not saying Jordan doesn't have that, but I'm saying dollar companies based on their silhouette on a shoe and branding clothing. That's up for debate again. And I'm a Jordan guy myself, but I can't tell you if Ronaldo is worldwide more popular. I don't know. I'd say it's. It's debatable. I think here's where I want to go with this because there's another layer to the NBC coming back to the NBA coming back to NBC and it has to do with a dead guy. I'll explain coming up. But I do want to hear from you guys as far as what do you want to see Michael Jordan do? Let's forget what he's really going to do. What role? When you heard this announcement, what would you deep down inside want to see Michael do? Would you want to see Michael sit down and interview Giannis or interview Anthony Edwards or some of the young players? I'd want to see him. I'd want to see his insight and true thoughts on. On the players in the game today. I doubt we're going to get. Would you want to see him goofing around at a roundtable or do you want to see him more of an analyst or interviews? Like I said, your thoughts. But right now we got some breaking NFL news breaking from Fox Sports. I know this tickles Rich Davis's fancy even though it's not 49ers related. We have more. And what's that? You know where his fancy is. I'm not sure you want to tickle it. We have more NFL schedule news. Are you ready? I'm ready. I knew they were going to le it's Wednesday, but I was like they're going to leak everything in the next two days. Yep. Fox is having an announcement which I'm about to tell you we found out earlier today. It's Cowboys and Eagles to start the season. Fox has chosen to tell America that on Saturday, December 20, get ready for a double header on Fox featuring the Philadelphia Eagles at the Washington Commanders, followed by the Green Bay packers going down to Chicago to face the Bears. Wow. And this is interesting. This is Saturday, December 20th. This is week 16. This also runs up against the first round of the college football playoffs for the three games on that Saturday. So Fox is saying, all right, College Football Playoff, bring it on. We're going to give you Eagles commanders, Packers, Bears on Saturday, December 20th. Two Eagles games announced already. Correct. So we know more about the Eagles than anybody so far. Yeah. As of Wednesday, I imagine Dan will keep finding out little tidbits along the way. But Wednesday is the official schedule release. And every year the teams, their social media teams right now are probably trying to think of the most clever, cool ways to release the schedule. I'll be honest, I love it. Every team comes up with their first two games are tough. The Cowboys and the Commanders, well, those are two division games they guarantee to play. Those teams commanders will be in December again, week 16, December 20th. And we know, we know that schedule watching tickles Rich's fancy. That's why we should have played this instead of breaking news. The Rich loves to look at the schedule game. Yeah, I love it. So, I mean, we're gonna find out all on Wednesday. And that's when guys could start planning and women could start planning their little weekends away, their, their family trips, their bro weekend. So the schedule officially Wednesday. Thank you, DB for that update. So you're right, Camino, we got two Eagle, they're divisional games, so they're expected and they were obvious. But both in big spots. The opening game and of course leading into Christmas week. All right, a Saturday game to compete. That's, that's the thing, competing with the College Playoff, you're going to have to have a matchup. Washington, Philadelphia. All right, now, coming up, what do you want Michael Jordan to be doing at NBC? And another layer of this, there's a promo for the NBA on NBC and some people have a major problem with it. And it has to do with a guy, a guy and AI, a guy that's dead and that AI isn't Allen Iverson. So we'll get to that next CNR right here, Fox Sports Radio.

Tire rack.com tire rack. The way tire buying should be. As I thought about Mother's Day yesterday, dude, that awesome fun fact Danny G. Hit us up with. Three pairs of brothers have hit home runs on Mother's Day, making their moms the proudest moms of all time. Do you know who they were? The Ripkens. The Conseco twins. No, the Ripkins and the Uptons. All fantastic guesses, but brothers with conviction, though. Brothers to each hit a home run on Mother's Day in 1942. The DiMaggios. Ooh. Dom and Joe. Who? I learned during a documentary that Joe DiMaggio, he did those Mr. Coffee commercials. And he had stopped drinking coffee, but he did it because the guy bothered him so much. And over the weekend, they call him the Martian. Jason Dominguez, 22 years old for the New York Yankees, hit three home runs in one game. And he became the youngest player since Joe D. Broke Joe D's record for the Yankees to hit more than two home runs in one game. So the DiMaggios then in, oh, two. Okay. The Giambis, the Giaminos, Jason, and the late Jeremy and Wilson and William Contreras did it yesterday, so. Mama Contreras. Nice. So as. As we celebrated Mother's Day yesterday, I can't be the only guy that I wanted to give my wife a little downtime. Like, honey, just chill. You know, you do so much with the kids, but no matter how much dad takes on, like, yo, kids, come with dad. We're gonna go to Starbucks and get mom coffee. Hey, kids, let's go in the pool. They still, like, will run to mom and bother her throughout the day. Like, it's just their instinct. Their instinct. Like, mom, wipe my butt. Mom, I need. Mom, I need this. No matter how bad you want to give her a foot massage, you always end up rubbing her cheeks. So, yeah, moms never get a break. So, I mean, I couldn't be the only one that was like, we're gonna give mom a break today. But within every hour, the kids bothered her about something. It's mom. You know, the mom doesn't get a day off. I'm sorry. Yeah, that's how it is. Love your moms. Go to your phone calls about Michael Jordan. Yes, Michael Jordan. It's not a lazy LeBron Jordan debate. It's. I promise you it's not that Jordan's going to be part of the NBA on NBC coverage as. What are they calling him again? The special contributor. But again, I think Dan Meyer hit the nail on the head because we're asking first and first, mostly, why, why, why Jordan? Yeah, is it time? Why would Jordan want to do something like this? But we're expecting some sort of crazy analysis and breakdown from Michael Jordan. That's what we would want. His opinions on the game today, and I doubt we're going to get that. And then we suggested, well, maybe he does a quick little interviews. It's like, well, do you see him as a Bryant Gumbel type? I don't see that. I don't see him as that role. And then Dan Beyer off the air said, it's probably just going to be some overly produced little segment on Jordan's advice. I told you, throwback packages. Yeah, overly produced. Where you can't really big picture stuff. Brand him in a negative light. Yeah, it's very. It's like low risk stuff. Low risk stuff. Yeah, I think that's probably it. And it's so disappointing because, yeah, we'd want so much more from that. It'd be weird to see. I know. I'll give you the best analogy. I remembered it during the break. I said to Dan Buyer, there was recently something with a lot of promise. And you're like, that's it. Didn't they say Mariah Carey was going to sing All I Want for Christmas is you before one of the NFL games during the holidays? And they kicked it to a pre done video of her in a studio doing it. And I'm like, I thought she was going to be like on the field or something. So don't get your hopes up as well. Say, well, yeah, they're just sort of bending the truth here for the headlines. Like, yeah, he's involved, but barely. Let's say hi to Tony in Virginia. What's up, Tom? Hello again. What's up, buddy? I think it would be so cool if he was a sideline reporter now. It'll never happen, but they'd line up for the halftime interviews, walking off the court. Yeah. Like no one would give MJ the cold shoulder. It just wouldn't be. It wouldn't happen. How would our boy George Sedano feel about this? That's a good question to take away. See, that's the thing. These NBA guys come and they take over the, all the broadcasting kids, all the layman's jobs. What about actual broadcasters? Can you imagine though, MJ in like some oversized like Bill. What's the word? Billis. What's the billowy suit? And he's on the sideline, the microphone. He'd look, he'd look out of place. But you know, it's interesting, Kavino brought up a good point. The last time we saw Jordan suited up was like in those nice oversized 1990s suits. He comes out. Is he like all tapered now in a David Byrne? Like, comes out like Carmelo. Yeah. No, oversized 90s suit. Carmelo @ the draft with the shoulder pads and everything. Yeah. I mean, I don't know if I've seen mj like a nice fitted current day suit. Georgia T, you're on with Kavito and Rich. What's up buddy? Pnr. What's up fellas? What's up, Danny G? Shout out Spotty on the video and shout out Big Apple if you know, you know, I Have a couple of things on Jordan. I agree with Danny G about it being. I don't want. It might sound like a crazy take. I don't want it. I want to keep the mystique alive. I wanna as much as. And I'm not a. I'm not a. I wasn't born in. I wasn't born early enough to see him do his thing. But I saw the Last Dance, and it was one of those things where when you saw it, during the time that you saw it, it was still. During the run, where the Lakers were still, like. People were like, oh, man, LeBron's still doing something. Something. So, again, competition, mystique. Do we need more stories from Jordan again? We've gone through the whole gambling incident, his golfing, his other stuff. I'm not saying it's not bad or you can't tell different iterations of it. I'm saying just like Tom Brady being the greatest football player of all times and not doing well in. In. In, like, broadcasting. It's one of those things where you can be great at something, but, you know, you only can be great at one something. Yeah, I mean, Jordan's proven that he's not the best owner in management. Right. I mean, that. That didn't work out well, but they will not expose him. That's. Maybe we read the story. Maybe it's Belichick's Jordanettes doing this for the NBA. Maybe it's that Jordan. Jordan. Or maybe they have a show. Jordan and Jordan. I'm here on the sideline. I'm here with Michael Jordan, and we're interviewing Giannis. Who? You. Exactly. Maybe we misread it. Oh, you want to say hi to someone real quick? Then we'll go to Dan Buyer. Mr. Butt. Remember the guy you used to see at the clothing store? Oh, wait, the guy that would come in last minute. What up, Mr. Butt? Yeah. I can't believe he used to make fun of my big ass Medical condition. Well, you would always show up when the store was closing in five minutes. Yeah. All these years, I reached back. I reached back. I reached back to grab my wallet over my shoulder, and my butt's so big now. Thank you. If you don't know who Mr. Butt is, go back to last Thursday's podcast. Yeah. We talked about people that came in as the restaurant was closing or as the store was closing. There was always a guy named Mr. Butt who would crack on jeans and stuff, and I'd be, like, ready to leave the store. Like, come on with this guy. He'd tear them too with his big butt. It was crazy and it's crazy even crazier to hear from him after all these years. Thank you. Let's go to your pal and ours, Dan Byer for an update. DB what's going on buddy? Guys get some NFL stuff to you in just a sec. But since we are talking hoops for the first time in his career, Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo may be open to options outside of Milwaukee. A report from ESPN says Giannis right now is being open minded was the phrase that was used about where his best long term spot is, whether it be in Milwaukee or with him another team. But the 30 year old Antetokounmpo apparently mulling those decisions. ESPN also reports that Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell is expected to be a gametime decision for tomorrow's game five against the Pacers because of his ankle injury. Pacers up 3:1 in the best of seven series game four Celtics and Knicks, 7:30 Eastern Timberwolves and Warriors play at 10 Eastern time tonight. Prior to all of that at 7 Eastern, the NBA draft lottery takes place. The Utah Jazz, Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets each have a 14% chance of getting the number one overall pick. That's the best of any team in the lottery. Capitals and Hurricanes skate in game four, seven Eastern Golden Knights and Oilers, 9:30 Eastern Time. Rain today washed out the practice rounds for the PGA Championship in Charlotte at Quail Hollow. Philadelphia Eagles will open defense of their super bowl title, hosting the Cowboys in the kickoff game starting the 2025 NFL regular season. That'll be on Thursday, September 4th. Within this past hour we' found out that a Fox doubleheader will take place in Week 16 that Saturday, December 20th. Eagles at Commanders will be game one on Fox, followed by the packers and Bears. And to take it a step further, some good points on social media guys. With the NFL having that triple header on Christmas Day, this allows those teams to play on that would play on Saturday an extra day of rest if you were to play on Thursday, December 25th. So we may see any mixture of Eagles, Commanders, Packers, Bears playing on Christmas Day. That makes sense. Yes. Yes it does. All unfolding DB Back to you guys. All unfolding the three teams with the best odds again, Utah Jazz, Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets. A guy like Cooper flag is remember when, when remember the last time there was a hype of like Zion and everyone's like ooh, I hope the Knicks at the time pick it and he went to New Orleans or any of those three teams like tickle we keep using the phrase tickle your fancy today. Any of those seem like a good fit? So when Victor Wembanyama went number one overall and the spurs won the lottery, a lot of people thought it was rigged because they didn't want another team to ruin Wembanyama. Yeah. And they felt that he was safe with the Spurs. That's how I felt as well. Yeah. Those three organizations, UT with Danny Ainge there, Will Hardy has just signed a contract extension. I think that people are thinking that Utah could come up number one. Utah would be that. My instinct was that too. I feel like Charlotte's just never. Yeah. Yeah. There's some that think that maybe Cooper Flag wouldn't be a star in Utah, but I disagree. We shall see. Well, I appreciate Dan Byers opinion, but you know whose opinion I really want? Michael Jordan. Mike, what do you got to say? What does Mr. Butt have to say about this all? Stop it. Thanks, DB now coming up, there's layer two. I just want to go over this quick. There's layer two of the NBA going to NBC and we'll get to that coming up. It has to do with a guy that's no longer alive. Yeah. What is that about? We'll get to that. Plus, last one standing, Danny G. Has prepared another great nerve wracking round of our favorite game. So we'll do that. Give away some prizes all coming up right here on Fox Sports Radio.

On November 5, 2018 at 6:33am, a red Volkswagen Golf was found abandoned in a ditch out in Sleep Hole Valley. The driver's seat door was open no traces of footsteps leaving the vehicle. No belongings were found except for a cassette tape lodged in the player. On that tape were 10 vile. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Bro. Esque. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Roger Caron was 16 when first convicted, has spent 24 of those years in jail, 12 years in solitary. He went from an ex con to a literary darling almost overnight. He was instantly a celebrity. He was an adrenaline junk, and he was the star of the show. Go Boy is the gritty true story of how one man fought his way out of some of the darkest places imaginable. I had a knife go in my stomach, puncture my spleen, break my rib. I had my guts all in my hands, only to find himself back where he started. Roger's saying is, I've never hurt anybody but myself. And I said, oh, you're so wrong. You're so wrong. I'm that one. Rod from Campside Media and iHeart Podcasts. Listen to GoBoy on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In 2020, a group of young women in a tidy suburb of New York City found themselves in an AI fueled nightmare. Someone was posting photos. It was just me naked. Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts on my body parts that looked exactly like my own. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream. It happened in Levittown, New York.

And now it's time for our Tyran play of the day. Pacers Cavs game got heated yesterday. Therefore play will be resumed. Two free throws with a plating foul penalty due. It will be Cleveland basketball. Now you bring up a very valid point there that the momentum is all in Indiana's favor. Y what Matherin did there is simply unacceptable and inexcusable. It just doesn't make any sense. And it's. It's been the flagrant two. Is he done? Did he say flagrant two? Yeah. Flagrant two is an ejection. He said flagrant penalty two. Is that correct, Pat? Is that right? That's what he said? Yes, he's done. He didn't say that Matheran was ejected. He didn't add on that part, but that's the rule. And it looks like Joe is walking him out of the arena as we speak. You're out of here. An ejection Pacers went on obviously to take that commanding three one lead over the number one seed Cavs. Obviously without Donovan Mitchell. That's courtesy of the Pacers radio network. And that is our tire rack play. Oh the day big win for the Pacers. 129, 109.

Now again, we're Covino and Rich at Covino and Rich. 8779-9 on Fox. Danny G. Says we have another call about Jordan. Is it Belichick's Jordan or Michael Jordan? Michael Jordan. Hey, what's up, Greg in Connecticut. What's up, Greg? Hey. So just thinking. I don't understand exactly what Jordan's gonna be doing, but it started making me think about disastrous on air stuff with. So I remember. Do you remember when Joe Namus got drunk and he did his interview? I want to kiss you. You know what, though, man? Maybe this is the new blueprint. Okay. When you think of the goats, right? Tom Brady, he's broadcasting now. He put fear aside and ridicule and criticism aside. He put his image and legacy aside and said, you know what? I want people to know more about who Tom Brady is and I'm going to take this chance. And greatness comes with a risk. I'm going to go out there and do my thing. Tom Brady didn't have to do all this stuff and he did. Who else? Derek Jeter is now an analyst. The thing is, you put yourself out there for criticism. We're not used to seeing Michael Jordan in that vulnerable situation. Is that what he's going to do or not? They're saying, special contributor, we don't know. I'll say it's the first time we're going to see Michael Jordan, in my opinion, not in a bubble of some protection or where we're all like, oh, mj, mj. Like, unless it's some overproduced, overhyped nonsense, which it probably will be. But there's one other note on the NBA on NBC. And then we're going to get to some NFL, some schedule stuff. We're going to play a game. But they had a promo for the NBA going to NBC. And I want you to take a listen to the voice in the promo. Listen, the NBA on NBC is back. See you this October for the NBA season tip off. Whoa. Now that sounded really nostalgic, right? Because the voice there is a gentleman by the name of Jim Fagan, big time voiceover guy. Unfortunately, he is no longer with us. What? They are using AI to put that together. And that is now a prime example of when, you know, there's strikes and media tries to figure out who gets the rights to someone's voice when they're gone because we've never really seen it. But to me, that hits your nostalgia bone a little bit. It's kind of like perhaps tickles itself. Yeah, he does tickle my face. They are going to use his voice for the upcoming season. That's insane. We said the one redeeming benefit of the fight two weeks ago, Fatal Fury, Garcia, Teofimo, Haney. That card in Times Square. One of the redeeming benefits was the nostalgic comfort food known as Jim Lampley's voice. But he's still with us. He's still with us. That's what I'm saying though. But there's something to be said about. Yeah, that voice is familiar with us and we like the nostalgia and the feel of that. It. They're just leaning into it in a different way. I, you know, respectfully, let me throw this out there. I don't think there's a baseball fan on planet Earth that doesn't admire the legacy and the greatness of Vin Scully. He's broadcasted long enough that if they really wanted to, there will be in the future, if not already, a way where they could probably have him call game. Is that fair? Do we want give you directions? No. On your Google Maps. But. But Vin Scully could probably with the database of every word he said in his mouth. Without a doubt they could do it. Should they? Would they? Is it wrong or awesome? And is this just step one, your thoughts at coveenonrich and 87799 on Fox. Using the voice. I think it's wrong and I'll explain why. Yeah. Using the voice of Jim Fagan for the NBA. More next. Your gut microbiome and those healthy bacteria can actually have positive effects. Your mental health, your immunity, your risk of cancer, almost disease under the sun. This week on Dope Labs, TT and I dive into the world of probiotics. The hype, the science and what your gut bacteria are really doing behind the scenes. From drinks and gummies to probiotic pillows. Yes, really, probiotic pillows.
