We talked about his career path and fighting and sports and everything else. But we also did a bonus show this past weekend, a Saturday broadcast from Vegas with Jim Lampley, where we also talked about the Super Bowl. You and I actually fought about it and we'll talk about that later on. But be sure to catch it, follow rate and review wherever you stream your podcast. Search Covino and Rich.

If you want to chime in on social media, shout out to Sam on the ones and twos and buyer. But we do this every Monday. It's things that make you go, hmm. And again, it could be football related, super bowl related. It could be anything you did this weekend related.
Rich
Or as our intro points out, Cavino and Rich bring up topics no one else does because I got, I got something on my mind.
Covino
Oh yeah.
Rich
Let's hear two things. I thought we all, as a societal, I thought as a society, we had had enough. Not not only fighting about politics, that's what you thought I was gonna say. I thought we had enough of O.J. simpson movies and documentaries and oh, here's the, you know, David Schwimmer Juice, Juice, Juice, Juice. We thought every documentary and stone had been unturned, and we lost OJ this past year, there's a new docu series on Netflix.
Covino
I'm actually glad you pointed this out, because one would have thought, yeah, I've seen it already, bro. You've seen every one of them.
Rich
I thought this, and I paid no.
Covino
Mind, because I thought it was just like another one I'd seen released on Netflix.
Rich
I was doing a little scrambling around before we took our flight from Vegas to New Orleans, and I said, you know what? We download a couple of things. I'm like, oh, I can't watch shows that my wife is watching. So I cancel out Dexter and, you know, Silo and shrinking on all our shows. What could I download? Like, yeah, she doesn't. She won't give a crap about this O.J.
Danny G
Thing.
Rich
O.J. simpson, not Jewish.
Covino
O.J.
Rich
Simpson, American manhunt.
Covino
By the way, out of context, it sounds odd. Rich just referenced OJ Simpson.
Rich
Not a Jew. But guess who is hall of Famer.
Covino
Rod Carew from the Hanukkah song, Adam Sandler.
Rich
If you don't get that, then you're dumb.
Covino
Not everybody does. People just think you have, like, racist threats or something.
Danny G
I don't know.
Rich
Racist. O.J. simpson. He's not Jewish. American manhunt. O.J. when I tell you again, I thought we all had uncovered every little piece of OJ Info on all these documentaries. I'm two episodes in, and I'm learning this stuff I had no clue about, so it's actually worth the watch. Sadly informative to the point where you.
Covino
Should probably watch the thing that made Rich go, hmm. Is another documentary. And the fact that you're still learning things that you never knew about the O.J.
Danny G
Trial.
Rich
We, you know, they take you through the whole car chase, and they interview the cops that were on the phone with OJ While he had the gun to his head. And there's audio that I never heard before with AC and all that. So it's. It's an interesting documentary. So that made me go, all right.
Covino
This made me go, hmm. Speaking of foosball, speaking of football.
Rich
Yeah.
Covino
The big story today is Myles Garrett is requesting a trade away from the Browns. Now we're going to dive into that deeper. But it did make me say, because also over the weekend, Kevin Durant went public and said, you know, this whole Ad Luka trade goes to show you that nobody's safe. You know, when people criticize players and the moves that they're making protecting themselves and their career and them either holding out like Pete Alonso or Jimmy Butler, who's saying he doesn't want to play anymore and this and that. You know, when people criticize the moves that players make, look what the owners are capable of doing to a player's life.
Rich
Which is why I always take the side of play. When people always take the side of, you know, ownership, I'm like, do you mean the billion dollar owners? Because it's not only superstars. I always feel bad for the dudes that are like a second year lineman who gets cut and it's like, that's it, right?
Covino
But it made me say, hmm. Because in one breath you're like, damn, man, that's messed up for AD and Luka. They didn't even see that coming. That's what I hope it works to their benefit. And then on the flip side, you got Myles Garrett taking control of his career, basically saying, yeah, all right, well, I want out now. Well, and again, we're going to dive in deeper in a few minutes.
Rich
About that, I got another thing that made me go, hmm and not is it who you know, who won the trade? You know, is Luka going to fit in in la? Because I feel like so much of that's been discussed. What made me go is when you trace back even the AD trade, this has been a great progression of trades and I was doing the homework on this myself and I saw Nick Wright, so I'll give him a little props on FS1.
Covino
Is that why you brought your Trapper Keeper?
Rich
I was doing my notes. I was wondering, man, Nick Wright pointed this out, but I was already on this train track of a little research. When you go back to realize what the Lakers gave up to get AD won a championship with AD bubble or not, I still give it, you know, it's still a championship.
Covino
I always thought it was a harder victory. I really always looked at it like that was under the most difficult of circumstances.
Rich
And then you take AD and now you trade him to get Luka. I feel like when you originally look at what the Lakers gave up to get AD you could say that that's the progression of what led them to now. And it's been some good moves for the Lakers front office. And I think it makes up for it makes up for any criticism for drafting bronnie because it's LeBron's kid. It's not like there were superstars in this year's draft. It was fine for me.
Covino
No, Palenca did absolutely what he had to do in that situation. I Don't think there's any debate whatsoever because the Mavericks approached them with this offer. And again, you heard the story as it unfurled like this. Started over a cup of coffee like, hey, would you, huh? Really interesting. A month later, they were able to work this out. When someone approaches you with a generational superstar like Luka at the age of 25, the Lakers had no choice but to make that move. So, yeah, it makes you say, hmm. But they did the right thing. Here again, your phone calls, your feedback at covinoenrich87799 on Fox. Who do we got?
Danny G
Danny G. Let's start with Ryan in Texas.
Rich
Yo, what's up, Ry?
Covino
Live from. No lot things that made you go this weekend. What's going on, fellas? What up, buddy? I was just calling with a couple of trades that reminded me of the.
Danny G
Luca trade a little bit.
Covino
That Demar DeRozan Kawhi Leonard trade was another pretty big one. And then the one that almost happened.
Danny G
The Chris Paul to the Lakers.
Rich
Yeah, you know, I think. I think you're right about the DeRozan one, because I think in order to call it a big trade, you need to have two names that are sort of household names. Because a lot of times it's superstar for it's a ton, like four picks and this and money. And when it's like essentially superstar for superstar with a couple add inside, that's monstrous.
Covino
Can I say this, too? And again, we'll take your phone calls at 87799 on Fox. We have this belief that these athletes are not like real people. Like, they're robot people that we watch playing sports. And Rich said this in passing and on the air, but briefly. But it does make me say, hmm, they're real life people. And of course, they're gonna be consummate professionals. And LeBron could ball with just about anybody. But there is gonna be that moment of, well, we gotta build this chemistry. We gotta feel it out and can it work? You know, Rich said it jokingly, but it's like they traded Rich for Jonas Knox. So, yeah, Jonas is great and all, but I don't work with him on a daily basis. Do I like him? Do I know he's good? Yeah. Do I respect him as a broadcaster? Absolutely. I love Jonas, but I never worked with him every day. We don't need to bring Jonas. This could be good and all, but, you know, it's gonna take a minute. I don't know how I feel. So you have to imagine how the Mavericks feel about ad How The Lakers feel about Luca, like, yeah, these are all great names and they could do the job, but will it work? And that adjustment period is real. And that makes me say, and there.
Rich
Are some people that get over it real quick, like getting caught off guard, and then some people that hold a little resentment and they're all sour. How do you know? Like, Anthony Davis could have two approaches. He could go into Dallas, bro hug Mark Cuban and be like, I'm really happy to be part of this organization. Let's go win a title. Or he could, like, come in with a sour attitude, like, why am I Dallas?
Danny G
Right?
Rich
Like, you don't know the attitude.
Covino
I don't know, but I think fires are lit. That's, that's my guess here.
Danny G
In the same. It's not like he got sent to a horrible team. He got sent to the second best team in the west right now. So you're next to Kyrie Irving. You're not going to be pouting for long, even if you're feeling a certain way, right? So when you're Anthony Davis, you have a little bit of a chip on your shoulder because you're disappointed that the Lakers blindsided you with this and you.
Rich
Were sort of told, like, let's read between the lines. Luka could move along to the Lakers now being like, oh, yeah, I'm out of shape and don't play defense. He can now, like you said, fire lit Anthony Davis. Oh, you don't think I'm the piece you need to win another? Okay. Like, you know, it's sort of an insult to both that you got to take that, as you said, that chip on your shoulder.
Covino
I live with that chip on a much lesser level, of course, but I live with that chip every day.
Rich
That's tostito.
Covino
It's actually a tostito, but, like, I relate to that. It's wherever you find motivation. Now, here's another question that makes me say, hmm, when you don't win with your franchise and you're a superstar like Luka, is it considered a failure? Because he did address the fans and he was like, his dream since he was a teenager was to bring a championship to Dallas. When on the flip side of things, AD did that with la. So do you look at like, Luka failed them in a way or. No, that made me say, I mean.
Rich
He made it to the NBA finals and just didn't have a great series.
Covino
AD has that on Luka. He won for his city. Can he win for the new city?
Rich
Let me, let me hit you up with One more NBA thing that made me go, you see that Giannis commented on this because everyone, by the way.
Covino
It'S funny you say that. My last one is what made me say, hmm, is how the stars reacted, because I, I was really intrigued by that. Patrick Mahomes being one of the funnier ones because he was like, I'm sick right now. He's a big time Mavericks fan, and you don't want this dude to feel any type of way heading into the Super Bowl. He's like, but I'm sick to my stomach. And then like a day later, a few hours later, he's like, but Kyrie and Ad.
Rich
Kind of sick, though, by the way.
Covino
He said, like, he, he's kind of feeling that matchup. I forget his exact tweet, but I, I don't know.
Rich
Another thing, I don't know who lost more followers. Selena Gomez, for crying about immigration. You know, she lost like a million followers. Did you see the Dallas Mavericks lost 700,000 followers after trading Luka.
Covino
Snoop Dogg lost a lot of followers, too. Just throwing that out there.
Danny G
That number's even bigger now.
Rich
But I said, Giannis commented on this. She said, all the stars did.
Covino
Stars reacted, man.
Rich
Giannis said, I just love it. I want Luka to the Lakers. I want Jokic to the Knicks. I want all the European stars to go to big markets. That's my dream. So he's saying, this is great for the NBA. He's saying, you know, he's in Milwaukee. Let's be honest, they want a chip with him. Milwaukee, the Bucs small market team. That is a lot of fun. But he's saying what would be great for the NBA is if Luka succeeds in Los Angeles. And what if a guy like Jokic or someone like that ended up in New York? How great would that be for the NBA?
Covino
Big time, big time move for the Lakers again. Their future is set up and really excited to see what other moves they make and what other moves that happen. We'll obviously keep you posted here on Fox Sports Radio. Now, we mentioned it. So I want to set this up real quick. Right quick. Miles Garrett requesting out of Cleveland.
Rich
Now, I think everyone that lives that request out of there.
Covino
Yeah. Well, this is a question. Clearly, you know, he was expecting Watson to ball out way more than we ever got to see.
Rich
He. He thought he was getting Primo desean Watson. He got Randall Watson.
Covino
Yeah, yeah. Randy Watson might have been better.
Rich
Yeah.
Covino
So it does pose the question of you. Well, you see, again, that's the whole, I guess, would Dichotomy be the word or I don't know. You see what happens to players when they don't know and how owners just dish them off, by the way, you see when players take control of their lives and careers and they request a trade.
Rich
By the way, Jameis Winston did have a Randy Watson type vibe in the huddle, though.
Covino
Yeah, he did. Yes, he did.
Rich
Randall Watson. So.
Danny G
And really quick, Rich, apologize to Fox Sports 1350, the gambler in Cleveland.
Rich
Hey, the gambler. I apologize. I would love to go to Cleveland and do a live remote.
Covino
Now, do you respect Miles Garrett and his request out of Cleveland? Because he put his time in, he gave him everything he had. Is this what you would consider, and this is how we're positioning it here. A Mike Trout or a Shohei Ohtani? Do you blame Miles Garrett for him wanting out?
Rich
I think this is a great move, and I'll tell you why. There comes a point in every star's career where if you put enough time in. If you put enough time in, where you're like, all right, I've been here five plus years. I've tried to win in this city. I've tried to bring a championship here. It's not working. It's you. It's not me. It's the opposite of it's not you, it's me. How about, no, it's not me, it's you. And I think for Myles Garrett, you got to ask yourself, do you want to be Shohei Ohtani or do you want to be Mike Trout? Shohei Ohtani, when the time was right, said, listen, thank you, Anaheim, Angels of California. Of Anaheim. Of California, whatever they call themselves these days, the Angels. He exhausted his time there, and Ohtani said, it's the time I'm going to. The Dodgers fans loved it. Won a World Series, biggest star in the world 50, 50 year. He was. He went from. Oh, you mean one of the greatest Japanese players that plays down in Anaheim to the face of the league. Mike Trout will forever have the reputation of, what a great player. He's like the modern day Mickey Mantle, but Mickey Mantle has this other thing that he doesn't like a ton of World Series. If you want to take the Mike.
Covino
Trout route, it's sort of lessens your value.
H
Yeah.
Covino
And your legacy, you know, Again. Oh, okay. He's a loyal guy. He's loyal to the Angels, but as I've said for years now, these pros ain't loyal. And that's part of the game. When you see how owners are still able and capable of treating their players. You know, say that to Luka and AD Right now. So Trout or Ohtani is really the question here. Like, you see, they were on the same team, and you see the paths they took. I think you got to take a little piece out of these playbooks and use them in your own life. You know, Rich and I, even here at Radio Row, we pass by other people that employed us, and we say to ourselves, you know what? Glad we moved on. You know, it was time to move on. It's just sometimes hard to move on and sometimes content and complacent and easy to stay and remain where you are right now, because there's a comfort involved.
Rich
But.
Justin Pennik
But.
Covino
And that's the Mike Trout angle of it.
Rich
Not only a comfort, almost a very loyal, a very admirable mindset of, you drafted me. I'm going to prove that you made a right decision.
H
There's.
Covino
Yeah, there's something honorable there, too.
Rich
And, you know, hold on.
Covino
With Myles Garrett, though, the sole reason for him wanting to leave, and it's always been his motive and his goal as a professional is to win a Super Bowl. So if he's saying to myself, like, look, you know, I play for me, I don't think that the Cleveland Browns are in any position to win a Super bowl right now. So that's why I came here. And your goals in. The goals are not being met, so I'm out. Did you expect that?
Rich
Did you just quote Ivan Drago?
Covino
Yeah, he's saying, in a way, he's saying it's. In a way, he's saying, I want what's best for me, and that's to play for a winning organization. So he still has team in mind, but he wants to play for a winning team, and I kind of respect that because it's much easier sometimes to. To stay where it's just comfortable. And that goes for your employer, and it also goes for your relationships.
Rich
The Bucks are a playoff team. They're not at the caliber Danny G. That they were when, you know, Giannis won a chip a couple of years ago. But do we feel that way about Dame Lillard, where he spent a decade plus, and everyone's like, yo, how admirable. He. He's the Blazers one star. He was. So, you know, they had a couple at one point, but, you know, you didn't feel that way about Dame.
Danny G
No. He was there for so long that I think that's why everybody was okay with him towards the end of his run here.
Rich
Right.
Danny G
Going somewhere else.
Rich
That's My point, my point is that.
Covino
Girl in your life who says that you wasted her best years, it's like that.
Rich
You've done that to many girls.
Covino
No, we haven't heard.
Danny G
You've heard that.
Covino
No, no, I have. No, I've heard that. Other people have heard that.
Rich
How old your girlfriend though?
Covino
Oh, she's got great years ahead of her. She's fine.
Rich
Kavino dated her from 25 to 31.
Covino
Yeah, but what am I? I'm chopped liver.
Rich
If you don't, if you don't end up with her. Yeah, you wasted, you wasted her championship years.
Covino
And you're right, everybody would say that and that's unfortunate.
Rich
But you know what, Dame Lillard, I bring him up because that is where I'll put Miles Garrett played for a weak ass organization that he gave it his best shot and now it's like, all right, I did the right thing. I want to win now. I want to win now. I've done the right thing. Ohtani Angels did the right thing.
Covino
Anyway, it's a crossroads and you get there and it's Bone Thugs and harmony. You're there. Rich sees Britney Spears. I know it's a crossroads and that's where Myles Garrett was at. And it happens to everybody at one point in their life, relationship or career. And you have to ask yourself this right, there's a fork in the road. Do I go left? Do I go right? Do I go the road less traveled by Robert Frost style? Do I pull a Mike Trout or Shohei Ohtani? And Miles Garrett is pulling a Shohei Ohtani and that has made all the difference. Alright, it's Fox Sports Radio live from nola. And again we want to get you involved Fox Sports Radio Nation. So the number is 87799 on Fox. 87799 on Fox.

Rich
And I do find it also humorous to watch Covino try to balance his eating and drinking throughout a week.
Covino

Rich
Yeah, no doubt. So, hey, we'll have some fun tonight. And we will report back tomorrow all of our findings. Now, I do think tomorrow is an interesting thought because Covino and I are going to debate. We totally disagree on who has more to lose or win when it comes to the Eagles and Chiefs. And I know you have some good thoughts on because you always have this narrative, like, who wants it more or who needs it more? Like, I don't believe in those things. So we'll get to that tomorrow live here from New Orleans. We'll have some grits, have some hurricanes, and we'll check back in tomorrow. Until then, check out the pod.

Podcast Summary: The Herd with Colin Cowherd – Hour 2: Last Man Standing
Release Date: February 4, 2025
Introduction
In the second hour of "Last Man Standing" on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, hosts Covino and Rich delve deep into the tumultuous world of sports trades, focusing primarily on high-profile moves in the NBA and NFL. The discussion navigates through player trade requests, team dynamics, and the broader implications of athletes taking control of their careers.
1. Myles Garrett Requests Trade from the Cleveland Browns
Timestamp: [07:00]
The episode kicks off with a major headline: Myles Garrett, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year, has requested a trade away from the Cleveland Browns. Covino remarks, “Now, this is a question. Clearly, you know, he was expecting Watson to ball out way more than we ever got to see” ([16:04]). Rich adds, “I think this is a great move, and I'll tell you why. There comes a point in every star's career where if you put enough time in...” ([17:16]). The hosts dissect Garrett's motives, emphasizing his desire to win a Super Bowl and questioning whether the Browns are positioned to meet his aspirations.
2. Analyzing the Anthony Davis and Luka Doncic Trade
Timestamp: [08:19]
Covino shifts the conversation to the NBA, dissecting the Lakers' strategic move of trading Anthony Davis to acquire Luka Doncic. “When you originally look at what the Lakers gave up to get AD you could say that that's the progression of what led them to now,” Covino explains ([08:45]). Rich concurs, highlighting the Lakers' forward-thinking front office decisions: “The Mavericks approached them with this offer. When someone approaches you with a generational superstar like Luka at the age of 25, the Lakers had no choice but to make that move” ([09:35]).
3. Players Taking Control: Mike Trout vs. Shohei Ohtani
Timestamp: [18:00]
The hosts draw parallels between Myles Garrett's trade request and MLB stars Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani's career decisions. Covino states, “It's like you see how owners are still able and capable of treating their players. You see, they were on the same team, and you see the paths they took. I think you got to take a little piece out of these playbooks and use them in your own life” ([18:38]). Rich elaborates, “Mike Trout will forever have the reputation of, what a great player... Shohei Ohtani, when the time was right,... He went from... face of the league” ([17:16]).
4. Team Dynamics and Player Reactions
Timestamp: [12:08]
The conversation shifts to how players like Anthony Davis might respond to being traded to new teams. Covino muses, “There's gonna be that moment of, well, we gotta build this chemistry. We gotta feel it out and can it work?” ([12:08]). Rich speculates on AD’s potential attitude, asking, “Can he go into Dallas, bro hug Mark Cuban and be like, I'm really happy to be part of this organization?” ([12:08]).
5. Broader Implications of Athlete Trade Requests
Timestamp: [19:50]
Covino and Rich explore the societal and professional impacts when athletes request trades. Covino reflects on loyalty in professional relationships, “These pros ain't loyal. And that's part of the game” ([18:38]). Rich compares Garrett's decision to legendary athletes who chose personal and professional growth over long-term loyalty: “So if he's saying to myself, like, look, you know, I play for me...” ([19:51]).
6. Audience Interaction and Call-ins
Timestamp: [10:13]
The hosts engage with listeners through live calls, discussing additional trade scenarios like the DeMar DeRozan and Kawhi Leonard trade. Covino emphasizes, “We have this belief that these athletes are not like real people. Like, they're robot people that we watch playing sports” ([11:00]). Callers provide their insights, enriching the discussion with varied perspectives.
7. Trivia Segment: Last One Standing
Timestamp: [26:11]
To inject some fun, Covino and Rich host a trivia game titled "Last One Standing." Contestants battle through sports-related questions, testing their knowledge on NFL teams, Super Bowl quarterbacks, and NBA player career statistics. Notable moments include Covino securing multiple wins and engaging banter among the hosts, highlighting the competitive yet entertaining nature of the show.
8. Conclusion and Future Discussions
Timestamp: [43:44]
As the episode wraps up, Covino and Rich tease future topics, including debates on the motivation behind Super Bowl contenders and more live interactions from Media Row. They reflect on the day's discussions, reinforcing the themes of athlete agency and the evolving landscape of professional sports.
Notable Quotes:
