Rich Davis
What time is curfew for animals?
- [04:52]
Steve Covino
Ooh, pm.
- [04:54]
Nate Thompson
That's tough too. Animals are barking throughout the night. Dan Beyer didn't complain about that, but he did have a valid complaint. I think when the teenage kids in the neighborhood just bouncing the basketball while his kids trying to sleep on a random school night. What's the sports rules here? Neighborhood Sports Rules, 10:00pm Dan, you.
- [05:15]
Steve Covino
You could go to them. Do you remember that commercial? Is that a west coast thing, too? It's 10pm do you know where your children are?
- [05:19]
Rich Davis
Oh.
- [05:20]
Kyra K. Dixon
Oh, gee.
- [05:21]
Steve Covino
That was not out here.
- [05:22]
Rich Davis
Yeah, it was on the news. There was a local news here.
- [05:24]
Kyra K. Dixon
I grew up in Wisconsin.
- [05:26]
Steve Covino
Yeah, there was. Every. Every night, right when the 10 o'clock news started, there would be like a disclaimer. It's 10:00pm do you know where your children are? You could be like, hey, if the news is asking, get them in the house.
- [05:36]
Kyra K. Dixon
That's a good point. Seriously, like, I need everything on my.
- [05:40]
Nate Thompson
Side, especially on a weeknight. Remember my story, my complaint? It was Saturday night. Beat it. Now Mike, who runs this place, tells a story.
- [05:49]
Rich Davis
Who?
- [05:49]
Nate Thompson
Mike, who runs this place. He played sports growing up. I know it's hard to believe, but he said he would badminton, he would discus. Throwing balls into his neighbor's yard. He said his neighbor would go, like, great lengths to really get to these kids. They would cut. He would cut their balls in half with a chainsaw. He says they never knew with what.
- [06:10]
Steve Covino
Sounds like a plot line. Not sandlot.
- [06:12]
Nate Thompson
He said he would throw back half a baseball to them.
- [06:16]
Steve Covino
Like, he's like, this guy must have brought. Stay out of my way, man. That's some grumpy old man.
- [06:21]
Nate Thompson
I know.
- [06:21]
Rich Davis
Like in Rialto, California, when I was little, a little kid, my older brother would throw the football sometimes over the neighbor's fence. And she. She was a mean lady. She said, any balls you throw over here, I'm giving to my dog in his doghouse. So we'd see the dog chewing on our Nerf football. The sandlot.
- [06:39]
Steve Covino
Yeah, imagine that nowadays.
- [06:41]
Rich Davis
Why didn't you just come knock on my door?
- [06:43]
Steve Covino
Yeah. No mom would stand for that. Imagine a mom in 2025. They'd go to the neighbor like, you have my child's ball. Give it back immediately. Like, there's no way the neighbor would keep the ball.
- [06:52]
Rich Davis
However, it's 12.99 at target.
- [06:55]
Steve Covino
There were.
- [06:55]
Nate Thompson
Hey, what if your kid hits your car with some wiffle balls? How do you feel about that?
- [06:59]
Steve Covino
Cost of business if it's in the street.
- [07:02]
Nate Thompson
Is a wiffle ball going to do damage to a car? You would not be pumped if you saw the neighborhood kids having a home run derby and your car is in the vicinity.
- [07:09]
Rich Davis
We used to hit golf balls with aluminum bats.
- [07:12]
Nate Thompson
You would just hit Them, you know.
- [07:14]
Steve Covino
My wife, the other day, my kids are. I'm throwing them wiffle balls on the front lawn. They're hitting Wiffle balls with their aluminum Little League baseball bats. Wiffle balls, right. My wife is concerned because, like, there's a couple cars parked on the street, like, houses away. I'm like, if our kid hits the ball there, you have awful confidence in our kid to go to hit it all the way over there. And if that's the case, if your car is parked in the street in a neighborhood, you should be happy. The kids are outside playing wiffle ball. Wiffle ball's not going to do anything.
- [07:42]
Nate Thompson
That's the thing too. Right. And I bet you that's where Dan Byer's a little torn. It's nice to see kids being kids. It's nice to see teenagers playing a pickup game.
- [07:51]
Kyra K. Dixon
That's their argument.
- [07:52]
Nate Thompson
Right. It's nice to see kids outside not on their tablet. So you don't want to discourage them and be the grumpy guy, because we've dealt with that growing up. But there has to be a level of respect, and I think that's the point of this conversation. And Dan, I think you hit the nail on the head. 10 o'clock is like, more than generous. Way more.
- [08:08]
Kyra K. Dixon
That's what I thought as well.
- [08:09]
Nate Thompson
Without a doubt. And honestly, not to start trouble in your neighborhood, I think you got to stand firm on that. Otherwise they're just taking advantage of your kindness.
- [08:18]
Kyra K. Dixon
That's the. That's the issue now is it's. It's a. Tell you what. They. We had a different neighbor because they put a pickleball court in the middle of our cul de sac. And so another neighbor called the hoa.
- [08:31]
Rich Davis
That sounds fun, man. Go play some sports over there.
- [08:34]
Kyra K. Dixon
Yes, but the other. Another neighbor that got mad at them and they called the hoa and the hoa, like, a couple of days later, like, they put lines down and everything. All of a sudden there's a street crew that shows up.
- [08:45]
Steve Covino
What?
- [08:46]
Kyra K. Dixon
Yeah, yeah. So it's.
- [08:47]
Steve Covino
I sure you don't live in an la Fitness.
- [08:50]
Kyra K. Dixon
What's going on?
- [08:51]
Rich Davis
I don't know.
- [08:52]
Kyra K. Dixon
It was, you know, like.
- [08:53]
Steve Covino
So you had to drive around the pickleball court, like the net.
- [08:57]
Kyra K. Dixon
Like if you were coming home again.
- [08:59]
Steve Covino
We'Re at 5 o'clock.
- [09:00]
Kyra K. Dixon
So the net was basically three to nine when we were playing. They'd move it and then we'd pull in and drive. But it was. There was a different neighbor. The neighbor at 9:00. That's like, I'm. I haven't talked to him about it, but he told them, like, you guys almost hit my car, and I almost hit you guys, man.
- [09:18]
Nate Thompson
Neighborhood sports rules the local teens. And Dan's cul de sac is keeping up his kid, and they're playing into the late hours of the night.
- [09:26]
Steve Covino
I think one of the points we made, Covino, also, was your perspective changes over the years.
- [09:30]
Nate Thompson
Definitely.
- [09:30]
Steve Covino
Like, I used to think my neighbor was a jerk for putting his sprinkler on when we would play tackle football on his lawn. And I'm like, what a mean guy. I'm like, he just didn't. He probably spent a lot of money on his beautiful lawn. And he's like, these kids are not playing football. My lawn. Like, looking back, you know, maybe Vinny wasn't such a bad guy after all.
- [09:49]
Kyra K. Dixon
He just wanted to manicure his lawn that so many of us now do these days.
- [09:53]
Nate Thompson
Exactly. Let's wrap it up. Neighborhood sports.
- [09:56]
Steve Covino
That didn't deter you guys from playing the. You were just getting hit with water, and you were like, no, I looked at as a football under all elements.
- [10:02]
Kyra K. Dixon
Exactly.
- [10:03]
Nate Thompson
87799 on Fox @COVINO and Rich. Who do we got?
- [10:07]
Steve Covino
Richard. Let's go to Mike in Minnesota.
- [10:09]
Nate Thompson
Hey, Mike, you're on the show.
- [10:12]
Caller
Hey. So it's funny. I live in a cul de sac with, like, all the original owners from the mid-90s, like, from when I was a kid, and now my kids playing cul de sac baseball in the. In the. In the yard, and all of his buddies are over. And I've had multiple parents in the neighborhood say, like, it's such a joy seeing this. These. This new generation of kids doing exactly what our kids did back in the day.
- [10:36]
Steve Covino
No. Dan Byer said, go inside and play Roblox and get on your iPad.
- [10:41]
Nate Thompson
But you're right. It's bringing life back to the neighborhood.
- [10:44]
Steve Covino
Right?
- [10:45]
Rich Davis
But Mike. Mike said there is one. You said there's one complaint, though.
- [10:49]
Caller
There's. So the complaint that comes out. It's like. It's a civility thing. So, like, there's this one kid, he's basically O'Doyle. And so the neighbor across the street, right? And so the lady comes up across the street, comes up to me, she goes, I really am enjoying watching these kids doing this. But there's one kid, he's just constantly using bad language and swearing. And I go, yeah, I think I know who it is. You know, and then you got to have that conversation with the dad where you're just kind of like, hey, man, like, if he's going to come over, he's really got to keep it down. He cannot be swearing or, like, bullying and, like, you know, you know, pushing kids around because he's older, he's bigger, he's what he is. O'doyle.
- [11:32]
Steve Covino
And then he pushed you and said, o'doyle rules. Right, Doyle rules.
- [11:35]
Kyra K. Dixon
How late do you think is late?
- [11:37]
Steve Covino
Yeah, Mike, what's. What's too late for you?
- [11:40]
Caller
Well, it's interesting. So, I mean, in Minnesota, it gets pretty dark at 7:00. So, like, in my opinion, like, you know, it's not necessarily how dark it is or anything like that, But I think 10 o'clock is probably a good time.
- [11:55]
Nate Thompson
Dude, that's generous. It really is that. That's more than fair.
- [11:58]
Rich Davis
Safe to say by 10pm it's completely.
- [12:00]
Steve Covino
Dark out all across the U.S. unless.
- [12:02]
Rich Davis
You'Re in, like, Alaska or something.
- [12:03]
Steve Covino
Lock it down.
- [12:04]
Nate Thompson
If it's dark, the street lights are.
- [12:05]
Steve Covino
Out, but, like, in the summertime, it's light out, like in the Midwest till, like, after nine.
- [12:09]
Rich Davis
I think a good rule of thumb. Yeah. Don't bother people after 9pm and by.
- [12:13]
Nate Thompson
The way, I don't want to dive into this story, but There was an O'Doyle in my neighborhood. It was this fat Greek kid, and he would just, like, bully everybody. But he was a lot older than us, right? Let's say I was like 10. He was like 13, 14, right. I'm like 9 years old, barely. This kid would push us around, tease us. My mom came out with a wiffle ball bat. True story. So this is sports related. I figured I'd bring it up. She beat his ass all the way down the street with a wiffle ball bat.
- [12:45]
Steve Covino
Stuff like that.
- [12:46]
Nate Thompson
Yeah, my mom stuff because she saw him, like, push me onto the grass or something.
- [12:50]
Rich Davis
She'd be in jail right now.
- [12:51]
Nate Thompson
She would be in prison. 20, 25, he went running down, welted with wiffle ball bat. And Doyle rules. Yeah, O'Doyle never bothered me again.
- [13:00]
Steve Covino
Doyle rules.
- [13:01]
Nate Thompson
You know, that's a true story.
- [13:02]
Steve Covino
Neighborhood sports. Speaking about this, I'll throw this quick story in. The only time I ever started a physical fight in my life, we playing tackle football. You know, when you try to get more kids to play. My brother's four and a half years younger than me. So let's say I was like 13. My brother was like nine.
- [13:19]
Nate Thompson
Yeah, there was always that in the neighborhood.
- [13:20]
Steve Covino
And so like, yo, my brother Jimmy. Jimmy, let's play.
- [13:23]
Nate Thompson
You need an extra guy?
- [13:24]
Steve Covino
Yeah. One kid kept tackling my little brother really hard. And I'm like, my dude, he's nine.
- [13:31]
Nate Thompson
Like, who, little Jimmy O'Doyle?
- [13:33]
Steve Covino
Yeah. No, I was like, why? Why are you bothering my brother? He's nine. He's here as the extra guy. And I was like, just don't tackle him hard anymore. He's nine. We're all 13. He goes, yeah, all right, whatever. He tackled my brother hard. One more time. I went up to him, I sucker punch him in the gut. He was. I pushed him to the floor, and I just jumped on top of him, like. And I just kept hitting him.
- [13:55]
Nate Thompson
Good work.
- [13:57]
Steve Covino
The only time I ever started a.
- [13:59]
Nate Thompson
Fight, Rich actually invented mixed martial arts. A lot of people don't know that.
- [14:03]
Steve Covino
He invented the ground. True story.
- [14:06]
Nate Thompson
True story.
- [14:06]
Steve Covino
All right, I want to go to Alaska and say hi to Matt. What's up, Matt?
- [14:10]
Caller
What's going on, guys? How we doing today?
- [14:12]
Nate Thompson
We're good.
- [14:12]
Steve Covino
What's up?
- [14:13]
Caller
Good. Hey, so maybe I'm a little old school, but you guys kind of touched on a little bit back in the day, you know, things were. Things were different. Now everybody to, you know, sue everybody. Kid comes over, plays in your yard. Even when you got cameras, it's like, no, Johnny ran into the side of the truck. You know, it's not. It's not our fault, but when it comes to the street, I think the street's open game. If you want to park your car out there, that's public property. And kids, that's where. That's where, you know, the neighborhood kids should be playing. Unless you're the one that's got the big lawn. And when it comes to farm animals, unfortunately, where I live, we got kind of bigger lots. And our neighbor does have a couple of roosters. And, you know, there's no rules on when those roosters are gonna crack off.
- [14:55]
Steve Covino
Oh, dude, hold on. There was a show. Wait, was it this fool?
- [14:59]
Nate Thompson
This fool on Hulu? Yeah.
- [15:00]
Steve Covino
Which is a great show.
- [15:02]
Nate Thompson
It got canceled, unfortunately.
- [15:03]
Steve Covino
Such a good show.
- [15:04]
Nate Thompson
Props to everybody involved. It was a really fun show.
- [15:06]
Steve Covino
And it was based out of east la.
- [15:09]
Rich Davis
Danny, I saw the show.
- [15:10]
Steve Covino
I remember the guy. They were. They hated the neighbor who had the rooster that every morning, what, at 5:00am or 6?
- [15:17]
Rich Davis
Well, it's like when the birds start.
- [15:18]
Steve Covino
Chirping, it's still dark out. You're like, damn, birds.
- [15:20]
Nate Thompson
But you're like, they're birds.
- [15:22]
Steve Covino
They can't. You can't control. Yeah, but if you're next to a neighbor. I was. Sam got a rooster. I don't think you'd be pleased.
- [15:27]
Rich Davis
Yeah, yeah. Take some adjustment.
- [15:29]
Steve Covino
All right. Let's say hi to Clint in Vegas. What's up, Clint?
- [15:33]
Caller
You doing, man?
- [15:33]
Steve Covino
What's up, man?
- [15:35]
Caller
So my. A couple neighbors down from me, they used to say he had a farm here in Vegas, and he had a big old open grass area. So we sneak on his property and play baseball. And, I mean, he'd get off my.
- [15:49]
Steve Covino
Line, get out of here.
- [15:50]
Caller
You know, you do all that stuff. One day, he shot me with salt rock. I don't know if you know what that is.
- [15:56]
Steve Covino
No, like an air. Like an airsoft gun?
- [16:00]
Caller
No, it's a. It's a shotgun round, but instead of lead, it's filled with salt.
- [16:06]
Nate Thompson
Oh, the bug.
- [16:07]
Steve Covino
There's like a bug Shoot a bug gun, you can get, like, that air.
- [16:10]
Rich Davis
Compressed air.
- [16:11]
Caller
But imagine.
- [16:11]
Nate Thompson
Imagine a 12 gauge, but yes, a shotgun.
- [16:14]
Steve Covino
Imagine nowadays that happened that. Imagine someone shoots your kid with any type of in it. Whatever. Geez, you know? Shout out. Can we all shout out one nice person in our neighborhood growing up. They're all gone now, but Mrs. Hansen was this old lady that wanted us to play by her house because her kids were all grown, right? So she'd peek out the window and watch us play wiffle ball and wave.
- [16:33]
Nate Thompson
Maybe even offer you some lemonade.
- [16:35]
Steve Covino
Would you like. Boys like some water? And I remember being like, yo, if.
- [16:38]
Nate Thompson
Everyone was like, Mrs. Little Strawberry Candy, you know those mystery candies that old people have with the strawberry wrapper? Where do you find those?
- [16:48]
Steve Covino
I think all people buy all. You know what? If you. If you're curious where all people get their candy, I figured it out.
- [16:54]
Nate Thompson
Get out of here.
- [16:55]
Steve Covino
Should I give away the mystery where I recently went to the Dollar Tree?
- [16:59]
Nate Thompson
Yeah.
- [17:00]
Steve Covino
Tootsie Rolls, those strawberry candies, the. Those orange peanuts. Like every old person candy. Dollar Tree.
- [17:08]
Nate Thompson
Wow. All right.

Rich Davis
Well, Clint has a little more to that story.
- [17:11]
Nate Thompson
Wrap it up with Clint. He has more to the story. What up, Clint?
- [17:15]
Caller
So I wrap it up. I freaking went home, and my dad's like, what happened to you? And I was like, Mr. Tepper shot me with a freaking shotgun. And he goes, were you in his lawn?
- [17:28]
Steve Covino
Yeah, that's. Yeah. You'll learn your lesson, son. That's the difference between parents nowadays versus, like, when I was younger, my parents.
- [17:35]
Rich Davis
Would blame me first, and then they'd.
- [17:37]
Steve Covino
Inquire like, oh, were you to blame?
- [17:39]
Rich Davis
Okay, if you were, then kind of had it coming.
- [17:41]
Nate Thompson
Neighborhood sports rules.
- [17:43]
Steve Covino
Alan, want to wrap it?
- [17:44]
Nate Thompson
It is nice to see kids playing, though. No, no doubt.
- [17:47]
Steve Covino
And, you know, it's Kids play now as much as they ever did, but they just play an overpriced traveling, organized sports. Allen, what's up man?

Rich Davis
First comment is I've seen this neighborhood.

Caller
Stuff go on and everything changes. If you have a per neighborhood party.
- [18:16]
Rich Davis
In your dishing out beer in wine coolers for the women, those rules will change. And then my second comment is, and.

Caller
I've told my wife this, she likes your show too. I'm convinced you guys are sociology professors for pretending to be.
- [18:33]
Nate Thompson
Oh, I wanted to hear the rest of that. We're sociology professors.
- [18:38]
Rich Davis
Compliment got interrupted.
- [18:39]
Nate Thompson
I want to know. Oh my God, he was about to say something awesome.
- [18:43]
Steve Covino
Pretending to.
- [18:43]
Nate Thompson
I was going to add that to my bio.
- [18:45]
Steve Covino
He just went through like a tunnel or something.
- [18:46]
Rich Davis
Yeah. Alan, you still there? Yeah. You lost him, man.
- [18:50]
Nate Thompson
Sociology professors posing as radio.

Nate Thompson
Yeah. And by the way he said he.

- [19:16]
Steve Covino
He got got kiss off. So you were in his yard? I was talking to a couple of the dads that drop off at the school this morning and we happen to be reminiscing about this. So it's coincidence that you're talking about it?
- [19:28]
Nate Thompson
Well, Dan's in a. He's in a. He's got. He's in a bind.
- [19:31]
Steve Covino
But we were talking about how kids are as active as ever before. But gone are the days. It is refreshing when you see those neighborhood kids because where you spent a lot of your time playing wiffle ball, you had that adjustable backboard, you know, the slam dunk rim where you were playing street football, where the curbs were the sidelines. Those things have all been replaced by overboard organized sports where every kid's playing travel soccer, travel baseball, lacrosse, flag football. Like every kids are as active as ever. But it's now all under the guise of organized of a league.
- [20:03]
Rich Davis
Yeah, playtime, playtime does not last as long.
- [20:06]
Kyra K. Dixon
And that's the thing. I have no problem with Any of it. It's actually the time that it's happening. You know, that's. That's the whole deal. That's awesome that they're out there playing basketball. Could we have done this three hours earlier?
- [20:16]
Steve Covino
I'm gonna do. I'm gonna. I'm gonna come to your house with my bluetooth speaker at 10pm and I.
- [20:21]
Rich Davis
Feel like party for after hours. DB you should gift them an indoor Nerf hoop to put on their bedroom door.
- [20:27]
Kyra K. Dixon
Right? Yeah, maybe that's passive. Keep it inside.
- [20:30]
Steve Covino
Passive aggressive. Here's a Nerf hoop. Go inside.
- [20:33]
Nate Thompson
All right.
- [20:34]
Steve Covino
What I need to do. Dan, the truth is you gotta catch these teenagers with like, weed or alcohol and blackmail them and be like, yeah, listen, guess who's not gonna tell you. Dad, your pal. Damn buyer. But you know what you're not gonna do? Bother me after 10pm the worst part.
- [20:49]
Kyra K. Dixon
Is that I wish. No, I don't wish that they were. But you're talking about bad kids. These are the greatest kids in the world. So that's why you're just like. So you could plant an.
- [21:00]
Steve Covino
If they have a hoodie. If they have a hoodie.
- [21:02]
Nate Thompson
What's this kids, can't do it.
- [21:03]
Rich Davis
Can't do it.

Steve Covino

- [21:22]
Steve Covino

The MLB collection courtesy of Travis Matthew. But they also have real lightweight shorts, stretchy materials. Even the jeans I'm wearing right now, great stuff. They feel like joggers but they're jeans.

Steve Covino
Great stuff for the summer. We, you know, we both went on our vacation a couple weeks ago. Yeah, I broke out a lot of my new Travis Matthews stuff when I was down in Cabo. Shorts. The nice, like you said, the breathable pants, the T shirts are like a nice fit. And all this golf.

Nate Thompson
I've had a few friends hit me up like, are you into golf now? It's like, I mean, not yet. And they have great golf stuff. Yeah, I'm into mini golf, but it's just all about what you're wearing casually or out and about. They have clothes for everybody now.
- [22:48]
Steve Covino
Well, if you're into T shirts, if you're a T shirt type of guy or gal, it is honestly the quality and the fit. It's not flimsy, it's not that. You know, we always talk about how you could get like a men's large, but it swims on you because it's boxy, right?
- [23:01]
Nate Thompson
Exactly.
- [23:02]
Steve Covino

Steve Covino
Here comes the hot take.
- [29:03]
Rich Davis
Quotes.
- [29:04]
Steve Covino
Andy Weed should step down as head coach. This is not a one game reaction because they lost in this game. You guess?
- [29:10]
Rich Davis
The talking head.
- [29:11]
Steve Covino
You can quote me on that.
- [29:12]
Rich Davis

- [29:24]
Nate Thompson
Yeah, that's me.
- [29:25]
Steve Covino

I dye my hair with just for vatos Dark brown, black. All lies. It keeps me young.
- [29:32]
Rich Davis
To the left of him, the broadcaster whose greatest point ever was about mufflers. Rich Davis.
- [29:37]
Steve Covino
That's a good point.
- [29:38]
Nate Thompson
That is true. That's a good point.
- [29:39]
Steve Covino
I didn't make that yesterday. 20 years. No muffler problems anymore. What's going on?
- [29:43]
Rich Davis
The only flex bigger than his gym selfies are pics of his Thanksgiving bombs.

Kyra K. Dixon

- [30:12]
Steve Covino
Trev.
- [30:12]
Nate Thompson
Hey, Trevor.
- [30:14]
Caller
Hey, guys, how's it going?
- [30:15]
Rich Davis
Hey, Trev, what do you do for a living there in Reno?
- [30:18]
Caller
Bartender. Service industry.
- [30:19]
Nate Thompson
There you go.
- [30:20]
Steve Covino
Nice, man.
- [30:21]
Rich Davis
All right, rules for quote me. The first contestant with two correct answers is the champ. If there's a tie, I have two overtime quotes ready to go. Your name is your buzzer, but you do have to wait until all three possible answers are read. If there's two wrong answers in a row, we move on to the next quote. Are you ready? Yep.
- [30:36]
Nate Thompson
Let's do it.
- [30:37]
Rich Davis
Let's get it on. Here's round one. All right, here's the quote. Who me? Who is also in that bracket in Denver? Byu. They could walk to Denver from Salt Lake and they're used to elevation playing in it. How in the world do you send four teams? Four teams that played Sunday and advanced the tournament and they got to travel to Denver and Yale's a long way. Quote me. Who me? Was that A, Chris Broussard, B, Mad Dog Russo, or C, Dan Patrick?
- [31:09]
Nate Thompson
Spot.
- [31:10]
Rich Davis
Spot.
- [31:11]
Nate Thompson
That has a Broussard vibe to it.
- [31:13]
Steve Covino
No, I disagree. Rich.
- [31:16]
Rich Davis
Rich for the steel D.P. no. You're both losers. That was your boy Mad Dog. And this is what it sounded like.
- [31:27]
Steve Covino
Who is also in that bracket in Denver?
- [31:29]
Nate Thompson
Byu. They can walk to Denver from Salt.
- [31:33]
Steve Covino
Lake and they're used to elevation playing in it. How in the world do you send four teams?
- [31:38]
Nate Thompson
Four teams that played Sunday and advanced.
- [31:41]
Steve Covino
The tournament and I gotta go travel to Denver and Yale's a long way. Wow, man.
- [31:48]
Nate Thompson
When is he not fired up?
- [31:49]
Kyra K. Dixon
I don't know.
- [31:50]
Rich Davis
Wow. All right.
- [31:51]
Steve Covino
Does he order food like that at a restaurant like, ah, the Turkey Club?
- [31:54]
Rich Davis
Nobody French fries that before or after.
- [31:56]
Nate Thompson
Is half inedible that he likes to take. Ah, they put cheese on my Burger.
- [32:00]
Rich Davis
No one on the board yet. We moved around two. Here's the second quote. It's not to say it was a bad move, but I'm just saying the word cheap in free agency is synonymous with Jerry Jones at this point. It's something that he looks to do. It's something that he looks to do as it pertains to cutting corners. Quote me.
- [32:18]
Steve Covino
All right, so quote me. Definitely a cowboy hater. Keep that in mind.
- [32:21]
Rich Davis
Okay, is it A, Stephen A. Smith, B, Jason Smith, or C, Michael Smith?
- [32:29]
Caller
Trevor.
- [32:30]
Rich Davis
Trevor, we're gonna go Michael Smith.
- [32:34]
Nate Thompson
No.
- [32:34]
Steve Covino
Rich.
- [32:35]
Rich Davis
Rich for the steel.
- [32:36]
Steve Covino
Jason Smith. No.
- [32:38]
Mary Kay McBrayer
Wow.
- [32:40]
Nate Thompson
You suck. Honestly, Danny, I thought you threw Stephen A.
- [32:43]
Steve Covino
Out there to steer us wrong. Yeah, I thought so, too. And you can quote me on that.
- [32:47]
Rich Davis
Yeah, this is what it sounded like.
- [32:49]
Steve Covino
It's not to say that it was. It was a bad move, but I'm.
- [32:53]
Nate Thompson
Just saying the word cheat in free.
- [32:55]
Steve Covino
Agency is synonymous with Jerry Jones at this point. It's something that he looks to do.
- [33:00]
Nate Thompson
It's something that he looks to do.
- [33:01]
Kyra K. Dixon
As it pertains to cutting corners.
- [33:03]
Rich Davis
All right, so nobody still has scored as we go to round three. Here's the third quote.
- [33:09]
Steve Covino
I've been thinking about it a lot in the shower.
- [33:11]
Rich Davis
Quote number three. It's not that people are like, oh, Bronny had 17. He's the greatest player of all time. What they're seeing is confidence. What they're seeing is development. What they're seeing is him getting to his spots. What they're seeing is him shooting a shot that he didn't want to shoot in Philadelphia. He didn't want to shoot in other times. Quote me. Who me? Was that A, Doug Gottlieb, B, Kelvin Washington, or C, Colin Cowherd, Cavino Cove, B, Kelvin Washington? Yes.
- [33:42]
Nate Thompson
Yeah, buddy.
- [33:43]
Rich Davis
I felt it. Yes. That was. That was K Dub, and this is what it sounded like on Fox Sports Radio.
- [33:50]
Nate Thompson
It's not that people are like, oh, Bronny has 17. He's the greatest player of all time. What they're seeing is confidence. What they're seeing is development. What they're seeing is him get to his spot. What they're seeing is him shooting shots he didn't want to shoot in Philadelphia.
- [34:06]
Rich Davis
He didn't want to shoot in other times.
- [34:08]
Nate Thompson
And by the way, 39 points in the G League last night, dude, you could see the confidence going. He's got a nice floater, too. He's got a nice touch, a nice feel for the ball, man. I don't know. I think he's Gonna have a good one.
- [34:18]
Rich Davis
Calvin was replying to Rob Parker, who said the game didn't mean anything.
- [34:23]
Nate Thompson
Of course.
- [34:24]
Rich Davis
All right, here's the fourth quote. Coach Time and myself have given Asante Samuel more attention since he's been retired than he's ever gotten. There's nothing to debate. There's no one gonna say that he's in the realm of time. He's in the realm of Darrell Revis. He's in the realm of Rod Woodson or a Charles Woodson or a Daryl Green or a Mel Blunt. He's not. I don't give a damn what he says about the film. Quote me. Who, me? Was that A, Mike Florio, B, Cam Newton? Or C, Shannon Sharpe?
- [34:57]
Caller
Trevor.
- [34:58]
Rich Davis
Trevor.
- [35:00]
Caller
Steve. Shannon Sharp.
- [35:01]
Rich Davis
Yes, Trev. Halfway to a Swiggy.
- [35:05]
Nate Thompson
Nice.
- [35:05]
Rich Davis
Yes, sir.
- [35:07]
Steve Covino
You can quote me on that.
- [35:08]
Rich Davis
So, so far, Covino and Trevor on the board. And that was the fourth one, so actually, Covino and Trevor go to overtime here. This is between the two of you. All right, in overtime, you need to guess how the quote is finished. A, B and C choices on the way here between Covino and Trevor, finish the quote from the Pistons, Cade Cunningham. Stay with it. Continue to dig deep. This year has been super rewarding for all of us. And A, we won't stop till we have a ring. B, we're still super hungry. Or C, it's nice to no longer be in last place.
- [35:42]
Caller
Trevor.
- [35:43]
Rich Davis
Trev for the win.
- [35:45]
Steve Covino
B.
- [35:46]
Rich Davis
B is correct.
- [35:53]
Steve Covino
Trevor, the guy.
- [35:54]
Rich Davis
We have a winner. Yeah. Cade Cunningham said, stay with it. Continue to dig deep. This year's been super rewarding for all of us. And we're still super hungry. And now we are gonna mail a shiny swiggy out to Reno. Congratulations, Trev.
- [36:08]
Nate Thompson
Trevor. Serving drinks in the Swiggy longer than.
- [36:10]
Rich Davis
John Lennon's ass crack.
- [36:12]
Caller
So I'm so happy I finally got one.
- [36:14]
Nate Thompson
Thank you, buddy. Appreciate it. Trevor earned that one. All right, so quote me sweeping the nation. My brother loves that game, too. Danny J. Shout out to my brother Tommy. Again, we're Cavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. It's a great game.
- [36:29]
Steve Covino
I gotta. You gotta put a Rich Davis quote. You gotta put one of my quotes in there. Like, mufflers aren't a problem anymore. And you can quote me on that, by the way. You know, they're not.
- [36:38]
Rich Davis
They're made of fiberglass.
- [36:39]
Steve Covino
You know, on the way in today, I actually heard a commercial for Meineke. Remember, we're talking how like mufflers because of the late, great George Foreman. I guarantee it, they have they have a new slogan now, too? Like you missed, Meineke has nothing to do with mufflers. It's now like to take care of your car parts. Mufflers a thing of the past.
- [36:59]
Nate Thompson
Thing of the past. Now, Rich, real quick. Yeah, I know there were some national newsworthy Mets updates. One of them is Nimmo talking smack. Tell that nerd to be quiet. It's Yankees town. We know that.
- [37:15]
Steve Covino
Well, to quote Brandon Nimmo, the Mets. Let me, let me throw this out.
- [37:19]
Nate Thompson
And there's a new race in town. You got to tell us what's going on in Mets, Mets country.
- [37:24]
Steve Covino
I'll give you a quick Mets update, then we'll go to DB Brandon Nimmo said we're not going to try to be the stepbrother to the Yankees. We're not going to be the second team in New York anymore. In fact, we want to be New York's team. We want to command respect for the Mets name.
- [37:41]
Nate Thompson
Honestly, I do. If I wasn't a Yankees fan, I would like his tone there. For sure. I do like that. But I'm a Yankees guy. But that's the kind of attitude you want.
- [37:52]
Steve Covino
Listen, I'm. We're in our 40s. The only time the Mets own New York over the Yankees was probably from 84 to 90. Like, there was a mid. Like when Gooden and Gooden was Strawberry for sure. You know, the years leading up to 86 and then till about 1990 when the Mets started falling apart and the Yankees started to build.
- [38:12]
Nate Thompson
That's the lesson we've learned is like, yeah, the second team, the little brother team can make a run and take over, but it hasn't ever really lasted.
- [38:20]
Steve Covino
Yeah, we, we've said that about the Clippers, about the White Sox. They're secondary teams. The Mets of the, and I'm not just saying this because I'm a Mets fan, they're the most prominent second team. Yeah, A lot of the other teams, like, like I said, the Clippers, the White Sox, the Angels, like, can they.
- [38:35]
Nate Thompson
Do that this year with Soto and Lindor and Alonzo and man, if, if there's any time to do it, at least take over for a year or two or maybe have a little streak. It's starting now. See what happens again. That's what makes it exciting.
- [38:49]
Steve Covino
But the other story has to do with the Mets trying to replicate something. Dan Byers brewers do something other teams do. They do it in the Nationals park with the Presidents. Those are the two that come to mind, right. Dan Buyer that they do the great sausage race.
- [39:04]
Nate Thompson
Mr.
- [39:04]
Kyra K. Dixon
Freeze. I think the most popular. Yeah, there's other squads. I believe there may be one in Pittsburgh, but the brewers the most popular. And then I think the Presidents are second.
- [39:13]
Steve Covino
Yeah, they do the Sausage race in Milwaukee and they do the presidential race in D.C. for the Nationals. The Mets have unveiled a new in game, I guess you would say a new in game tradition, fan spectacle. Each of the five boroughs represented by something else. Racing during the game. From Staten island, the ferry. The Staten Island Ferry. From the Bronx, the giraffe. The Bronx. The giraffe. The Bronx Zoo. And last but not least, from Queens, the subway car. The Queens subway car. And I know Manhattan has the Empire State Building.
- [39:57]
Nate Thompson
It's an actual running race, though. It's not like the great city subway race on the big screen. Right. That the Yankees do. It's an actual foot race. So new traditions. Do the Mets take over? It's going to be interesting to see.
- [40:11]
Steve Covino
Well, they have the Brooklyn Pizza Slice, the Manhattan skyscraper, the Staten Island Ferry, the Bronx Giraffe and the Queen Subway. And much like the President's, all the sausages in Milwaukee.
- [40:22]
Nate Thompson
It's been done. But I'm not mad at it, Rich.
- [40:24]
Steve Covino
I'm not mad.
- [40:25]
Nate Thompson
No, I can't, I can't make fun.
- [40:27]
Steve Covino
Of like the Bronx Pizza Rat or something.
- [40:29]
Nate Thompson
It's all right. It's fun. There's kids, there's families. I'm fine with it. The Bronx Pizza Rat. I like that.
- [40:34]
Steve Covino
You know what? It's just another way the Mets are going to try to take over New.
- [40:38]
Nate Thompson
York from the Yankees and we're just two days away.
- [40:40]
Steve Covino
Let's go to Dan by for an update. Dan, what's up, man?
- [40:43]
Kyra K. Dixon
That guy's getting set for opening day a couple of days away. Also On Thursday, the NCAA tournament will resume with Sweet 16 action. But there's other news in college hoops. Mountain West Conference player of the year Donovan Dent of New Mexico entering the transfer portal while Iowa head coach Ben McCollum confirmed Drake guard Bennett Sturtz is transferring to Iowa. But test the NBA waters. So Bennett Sturt's moving on. UConn women's basketball star Az Fudd's going to return to school next season. Top ranked recruiteral Chavez has chosen to play at Oklahoma. Baseball notes. Seattle Mariners are giving catcher cal Raleigh a six year extension worth $105 million, buying out the final three years of arbitration. Stanford fired at football coach Troy Taylor today after an ESPN report last week revealed Taylor was investigated by the school on two separate occasions for allegedly bullying and berating Fe athletic staffers in the NFL. Vikings quarterback J.J. mcCarthy told FanDuel TVs up in Adams that he hasn't been told by the team that he's their starting quarterback. While Fox NFL insider Jordan Schultz says trade talks involving Bengals defensive entry Hendrickson are basically quote, dead end, quote, and the team is interested in working out a long term deal with the player. ESPN says the Tennessee Titans are scheduling a private workout with Cam Ward. And finally, there will be no Steph Curry tonight for the Warriors. He will not play in Miami against the Heat. And Jimmy Butler's return still out with that hip contusion, but there is a chance Steph could return and play on Friday. Guys, back to you.
- [42:16]
Nate Thompson
Bigger update, Dan in the world of Steph Curry news. Did you see that viral clip of him taking that full court shot? And everyone's like, no way. He sidearms it all across. It looks like it hits nothing but the bottom. Guess what? That's all it hit, the bottom. No, it didn't. All it did was hit the bottom of the net. But it looks like it goes right in.
- [42:36]
Steve Covino
So deceptive.
- [42:37]
Nate Thompson
It's so deceptive. But when you see it from other angles, like, I wanted that to be real. Like, no way.
- [42:43]
Steve Covino
So even then I started thinking, like, how could that even be a skill?
- [42:46]
Nate Thompson
It actually was an illusion.
- [42:49]
Steve Covino
Yeah.
- [42:49]
Rich Davis
From a distance in the arena, it looked like a swish.
- [42:52]
Nate Thompson
He just hit the bottom of the net and the net move. So it looked like it went right in. He did not make that viral shot that you probably thought he made. So we got to talk about this new patch. The Seattle Mariners have something new going on. Is it cool? Is it awesome? Or is it a little too much? Baseball's two days away.
- [43:13]
Steve Covino
Yeah. A lot of teams, you know, before our very eyes. Slowly but surely, it's happened where not only billboards, players helmets, jerseys, everything. There's, there's advertising going on. If you're a wrestling fan. I know something Vince McMahon was against for years that Triple H now allows, which is advertisements in the ring. So you look around, you barely notice them anymore. But there's one that the Mariners have that I think you won't miss. And we'll talk about it next right here. Fox Sports Radio.

Kavit Nonrich In 2020, a group of young women in a tidy suburb of New York City found themselves in an AI fueled nightmare.
- [43:51]

Rich Davis
Well, not me, but me with someone.
- [43:58]

- [46:12]
Nate Thompson
That's the reason why they're banning books like yours, George. That's the reason why they're trying to stop the teaching of black history, queer history, any history that challenges the whitewashed norm.
- [46:22]
Rich Davis
Or put us in a box.

- [48:47]
Rich Davis
Good animation over there.
- [48:48]
Nate Thompson
Yeah, yeah, Slowpoke Rodriguez.
- [48:50]
Steve Covino
I don't think a white guy could wear a slowpoke Rodrigue.
- [48:52]
Nate Thompson
Why? He was a hero.
- [48:53]
Steve Covino
I love Slowpoke Rodriguez.
- [48:55]
Nate Thompson
Kavino and Rich Sam is here on the ones and twos.
- [48:58]
Steve Covino
Stimpy, you idiot.
- [49:00]
Nate Thompson
We got Danny G producing who's telling us that we have breaking NFL news.
- [49:05]
Steve Covino
Dan Byer.
- [49:06]
Rich Davis
What's up? Breaking news from Fox Sports, guys.
- [49:11]
Kyra K. Dixon
The New York Giants and quarterback Russell Wilson have agreed to terms on a one year deal worth $21 million according to multiple reports.
- [49:19]
Steve Covino
The writings on the wall then for Aaron Rodgers. How? Huh?
- [49:22]
Kyra K. Dixon
Steelers, right?
- [49:24]
Steve Covino
Has to be right?
- [49:25]
Kyra K. Dixon
Or Browns.
- [49:26]
Nate Thompson
What about Shador Sanders?
- [49:28]
Steve Covino
Nah.
- [49:28]
Nate Thompson
Oh, I was hearing rumors about the Giants.
- [49:31]
Steve Covino
Well, yeah, no, hold on. That throws you for a loop.
- [49:34]
Nate Thompson
And by the way, I had good source scoops Callahan.
- [49:39]
Steve Covino
Who? Your uncle Bill.
- [49:40]
Nate Thompson
I'm serious. I had good source that the Giants were showing major interest in Shador, meeting with him and everything.
- [49:47]
Steve Covino
What are you. Who you hire the sin detective that in Billy Madison?
- [49:52]
Nate Thompson
I got Scoops Callahan on speed dial.
- [49:55]
Steve Covino
Billy.
- [49:55]
Nate Thompson
Listen here.
- [49:56]
Steve Covino
See, Billy likes chocolate milk.
- [49:58]
Nate Thompson
So that is. That's a wild one, Dan.
- [50:02]
Steve Covino
Well, you know what, Dan Buyer, that does throw things for a loop.
- [50:05]
Nate Thompson
And what happens to Tommy Cutlets?
- [50:07]
Steve Covino
Well, Cutlets, he'll be practice squad or third string. But if you have Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston and Tommy DeVito, you know, if you keep a third quarterback, then is Shador Sanders off the table?
- [50:20]
Kyra K. Dixon
Yes, I would think so.
- [50:22]
Steve Covino
But you're right, there was buzz about the Giants, New York City, Shador, you know, Dion's kid.
- [50:27]
Rich Davis
Maybe this gives the Giants some flexibility to take a QB a little later in the draft.
- [50:33]
Steve Covino
Man, that's an interesting one. And, but this damn buyer agreed that if Russ is a New York Giant, that all that straight up spells out that Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers are pretty much a done deal too. No, that's an interesting one. Russ and Jameis Winston, the quarterback room for the Giants. They went from Daniel Jones and Tommy DeVito to Russell Wilson and James.
- [50:58]
Nate Thompson
I'm not even just making this up. I would never do that. I had on good source that the Giants were pretty serious about Shador Sanders and see him and everything.
- [51:08]
Steve Covino
Colonel Sanders.
- [51:09]
Nate Thompson
Colonel Sanders told me sauce to say. Let's just say I had it. I had an inside school like, oh, wow, that's interesting. Okay, we'll see when it happens. So maybe those ideas and those plans and those thoughts go completely out the window when you have to just pull the trigger sometimes. And by the way, is that an outdated expression?
- [51:25]
Steve Covino
No, I think it's fine.
- [51:27]
Nate Thompson
You have to make the move to get Russell Wilson. When you have the moment pull the trigger. Sometimes you just got to make that move.
- [51:33]
Rich Davis
You Think that's outdated?
- [51:35]
Nate Thompson
I don't know. There's certain things I hear today's from today's ears, like suicide squeeze. I'm like, is that really, like a hold it.
- [51:40]
Steve Covino
I think you had the guy call.
- [51:42]
Rich Davis
Us about getting shot with the shotgun. Full assault.
- [51:45]
Nate Thompson
So it's just from today's sensitive 20, 25 years hold on. Certain things I'm like, is that outdated?
- [51:51]
Steve Covino
The same guy that told Cavino Shador Sanders was definitely going to the Giants. I got other notes of what that guy told Cavino.
- [51:56]
Nate Thompson
No, no, no, no.
- [51:56]
Steve Covino
Ms. Lippy's cut. Ms. Lippy's car is green.
- [51:59]
Nate Thompson
Not definitely going. Definitely like. Like seriously interested.
- [52:02]
Steve Covino
And Billy likes to drink soda. Is that same guy?
- [52:06]
Nate Thompson
It was old sideburns told me guy with the mop over there. So that's big news. Big news now, Rich, we teased it, so we might as well bring it up.
- [52:18]
Steve Covino
I'm so torn by. I'm not torn. I'm just saying it's. It's so weird because I didn't think Russ to the Giants wasn't even on my mental radar.
- [52:25]
Nate Thompson
That's what I'm saying. It changed everything else up. We're live from the Tire Rack.com studio. Rocket Mortgage helps you use your rent payments to get closer to homeownership with rent rewards.

You could do the app 24 7, the iHeartrap app, and anywhere else. But before we get out of here real quick, we teased it. So bring it up real quick. Seattle Mariners. Every team has a patch now, right? Whether it's a local hospital, some type of, you know, insurance. Did. The Mariners might have the coolest one. The Nintendo Switch logo.
- [53:16]
Nate Thompson
That's the thing.
- [53:17]
Rich Davis
Switch to the new one.
- [53:18]
Nate Thompson
I have to rock a pad. It might as well be of something cool. So I think the Seattle Mariners win here. It's like social media. If you're gonna get advertisements, at least you're getting advertisements you're interested in. They know what you're interested in, so you can't hate on them that bad. That's how I feel about this. If you're gonna wear a patch, it's a cool Nintendo patch.
- [53:37]
Steve Covino
But you know what? The lesson we learned, the Mets learned this. And I'm not saying it Just because they're my team. You have to have that logo match the colors of your team. Like, the Mets had a hospital, like New York Presbyterian or something. And at first it was like a red, big square patch. And like, why don't you make it orange and blue? Like, you need to make these patches blend in better because then it's not that bothersome.
- [53:58]
Nate Thompson
You don't want them to be distracting.
- [53:59]
Rich Davis
That's a good point.
- [54:00]
Steve Covino
Remember last year in the postseason, every helmet had Strass on it or something. We got used to that. It's the world we live in now. All right, we'll see you guys manana. Have a great taco Tuesday. Until then, arrived at her Chi, baby.

This is Nikki Glaser from the Nikki Glaser podcast. Have you guys seen this new commercial from Stand up to All Hate? It's basically Snoop Dogg and Tom Brady going back and forth with reasons that they hate each other. But then when you really listen to them, the reasons for the hate are just so stupid. I don't know. This. This commercial really got me. It's a strong reminder that hate in our country continues to be out of control. So join us at I Heart and Standing up to It.
