Yo Gabbagam. He had other songs besides that. Yeah, it's bring again. I did it like Louis Armstrong. But yeah, Biz Mark, he did. I forget that sample or what that was from. But yeah, he did that song well now Rich, you said that you feel like baseball opening day trumps the NFL's first week. You would think that sounds crazy because I'm a huge NFL fan. If anything, you would argue that I feel like the NFL is by far what I pay attention to show as a network. Rich, I feel like there's more pep in everybody's step and everyone's more hyped up for NFL Week 1 around here. It's a good debate. I salivate Danny, on that. I salivate over everything from the gambling to the magnitude of each of the 17 games. As a Niners fan, you know, they've been on a outside of last year pretty good stretch. So every year I got some high hopes. But I don't know. There's something old school and nostalgic and classic about baseball too. As corny as it sounds, I just woke up today with smell of the grass, the crowd, crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd. Your grandpappy talked about baseball and you know, you just associate baseball with so many old time and old school memories and maybe back to your earliest childhood memories. When we started off, you didn't grow up playing football right off the bat. You probably played some little Leagues, some Wiffle ball. You know, today kids play soccer. A lot of kids play soccer. But your memories go back to baseball since day one. So there's Something more nostalgic and special about it. It's like that comfort food, man. It's like pizza every night. I woke up this morning just feeling like, man, today's the day. And don't get me wrong, I watch football probably closer than I watch baseball. Wait, Rich. Two games. You got a spring in your step and a nickel in your pocket. I got a spring in my step and a spring out and I got a nickel in my pocket. There's something about baseball. That's all I'll say. And I think I know what it is, too. For me, appointment watching. Every night, like every night, there's a few things you question. Monday through Monday, what are we going to eat and what are we going to watch, right? One of these questions answered all the time. Baseball is going to be on every day pretty much for the next 162 games. Danny, you have. I love that you and Brenda have Dodgers on in the background most of the time. That's what I mean, background. You don't have to be glued to it. 80% of the games throughout the season, we have it on. And what's even more special about this season is even if your team's off on that random Thursday or whatever, right? There's so many other interesting teams that you could throw on just this background. So there's always something to watch. And then you could focus on your white lotus later on. But you got baseball. Pretty much everything. The next six months. Breaking news, but not really breaking news. Breaking news from my eyeballs. Okay? I'm watching the Yankees for the first time. I didn't watch any spring training Yankees. I mean, I don't think anyone did. Yeah, no one really cares how much spring training Dominguez just got in the box. Jason Dominguez. Brewers are having a little meeting on the mound. Yep. It's the first time I've seen a Yankee in my life with a beard. And it looks like a kid in a Halloween costume. Dude, Rodin looked like a badass. It doesn't make. It doesn't. It looks a little funny, you would say, how does that even possible? It's a regular guy. It's just a different uniform. But seeing a Yankee with a beard, look at him. It's a big difference. I'm sorry. Well, groomed beard. I'm just saying. So the question is. And that's also part of the fun, right? Like the new moves, the new rules, the new changes, the new players. The question we're asking here is when football is king. We all admit that. And when it's sweet 16. Your boy Clay Travis was saying, why would you even have opening day when you have three or four great games? Yeah. He thought baseball's openers should have been yesterday. Why is it that we find it so special? If you don't, you could also chime in and say, dude, you guys are crazy. Baseball stinks. You know, it's your opinion, but we find it to be extra special. Everybody here is representing their teams. You know, there's a sense of pride involved. It's a clean slate. You have a long season ahead of you. I think there's so much fun to look forward to. You know, you associate this with barbecues and hot dogs and good times and family moments. I think it's all of that. Rich Camino, you said something this morning when we were hanging, and I stand by what you said. Camino said when we were kids. If you're a kid of the 80s or 90s, I don't know if you're just picturing your starting lineup, figures or baseball cards, but every team in the 80s or 90s had one star. Star, star. Colin style. Stars, stars. If I said the Braves, you'd be like, oh, Dale Murphy. If I say the Phillies, Mike Schmidt. Hey, Camino. Orioles. Cal Ripken Jr. Cardinals. Ozzy Smith. Like, everyone had to go to Robin Yount. Brewers. Like, every team had a guy. Every guy had their guy. Every team had their dude. Baseball now, I think is hitting a stride where there happens to be a lot of exciting stars, where I think a young kid could reference a team and have that same. It's the baseball renaissance. It's back. It's the comeback of baseball this season. That's our prediction. There's so many powerhouse teams, so many superstar players, so many household names. Do the mom test, see if your mom knows some of these names. At this point she probably does. There's a lot of stars in the league and it makes, makes us excited and you're going to hear us yapping about it. So enjoy some baseball. Enjoy some March madness. The sweet 16, some say. Some say there's no Cinderella team, so it's boring. And then others say, what are you mad about? The best teams have advanced. It's not boring. It usually shakes out to where the Cinderella's don't advance that deep anyway. This is where the Cinderella usually loses by 25. You got a lot of 1, 2, 3 and 4 seeds. You got brand names. It's. Yeah, you got the brand names of college basketball. I think people should be like, well, that's A good thing it's the third year in a row. Where is it? Maybe Isaac could help me with this. It's either like no higher than a 10 or 11 seed is advanced to ground. Is it like Texas Tech? There's 110 seed, I think right still left. And that's it. Well, no, Arkansas. Is it Arkansas. Arkansas is the 10 seed. So yeah, it's the third year in a row where it's been mostly chalk. Except here's the irony. No rock chalk. Jayhawk. I'll tell you what. Oh yeah, no, Texas Tech is hosting Arkansas. Yeah, they're a tense. There was a lot of debate on the importance of opening day baseball and how you coincide it and overlap it with the start of the sweet 16. For me, there's no comparison. But again, that's just preferential. And that's just. I'm a baseball guy. I like baseball better. I don't think you can compare the opening day with the start of sweet 16, can I? Logic day is a special day. Can I lodge a little complaint here? Yeah, yeah. These. The first game of MLB Opening Day started at 3:00 Eastern and then we haven't even started at the Sweet 16 games yet. Everything is piled up for people on the east coast to be watching like sports from when they get home until like 1am I just wish it started. Everything started a little bit earlier. Maybe start those games at like 11:00am Eastern Time, maybe noon and just get. Because we got a whole sports day and it's piled up now in the afternoon. Let me tell you just a small complaint. The east coast thinks the world revolves around them. I live there most of my life. These games are all starting at 7:00 Eastern Time for the NCAA Tournament. That is. Well, most of the population does live in. Danny loves that fact, which is very true. It's true. Yeah. I mean here we're on the west coast mindset because we live here on the west coast, but most of the population is on east coast time. Trudette, why is today special to you? Hit us at Covino and Rich at fox Sports Radio, 87799 on Fox. And of course, since it's Thursday, opening day baseball Sweet 16 Thursday, we always throw it back and reminisce. So in about a half hour from now, in fact, in 33 minutes, we do Old School in 50 hits with the throwback conversation about baseball. So you got to stick around for that. Now, the dumbest hypothetical, I guarantee you, and the most entertaining one for that matter. And it has to do with Stephen A. And LeBron James. I pose it next, so hang tight. More Cavino and Rich next right here on Fox Sports Radio. We all know it started with the confrontation on the court. LeBron James. And then we know that LeBron had a really honest conversation with Pat McAfee. And then Stephen A. Fired back in a joking way, saying, if he would have stepped to me, I would have thrown punches. I would. I would. I would have went at him. Not only that, Stephen A. Was like, lebron James is a liar. He was calling him a liar. Like he was straight up call. You know, that's a character sort of attack. Calling him a liar. Said he didn't go to Kobe's funeral. I then he apologized. I am sorry. I was wrong. A lot of funny back and forth, but my favorite part was when Stephen A. Insinuated that while he would get his ass kicked, he said, I would have thrown first. Like, I would have went at LeBron if he had touched me. First of all, I know we would all pay hundreds of dollars for that. Pay per view Charity Boxing. LeBron versus Stephen A. Over in four seconds. But here's the question. I'm glad you said that. How many Stephen A's would it take to beat up LeBron James? Good question. All right, let's open it up. What do you think? You think we're just gonna leave it at that? No, we're getting you involved. We're gonna analyze this. 87799 on Fox. I gotta say, Stephen A. Smith's punches, as viral as they were yesterday. It's an old clip, but they were thrown out there. LeBron was laughing at it. Even Bronnie got in on it and said, yeah, he'd punch my dad. He'd fight my dad. Cap. He posted a cap like, yeah, BS. That video of Stephen A. Training Stephen A. That LeBron posted is hilarious. Hilarious. Slow mo. It's the form. Right, the form. But let's give Stephen a little credit where it's due. The power seemed to be there, and he's got his arms were. He looks strong. Like, his arms are big. He's in decent shape. His arms looked cut in that clip. It's an old clip. It's a funny one, but based on the back and forth also acknowledge, you got two big names really going at it. Really dominating the headlines right now. Really getting a little awkward, too, at the same time. You want the tail of the tape? Run. Yo, let's get the tail of the tape and open it up. How many Stephen A's does it Take to be a LeBron, not three, not four, not five. Stephen A weighing in at 220 pounds. Six one. He's a reverse Babe Ruth. 220. LeBron, weighing in at 250 pounds. He is six nine, six nine, and, like, not an ounce of fat on that guy. I have my answer. My answer is fact. I feel like I've really thought about this good and hard, and the answer is simple. One Stephen A can't do it. No. I think even two Stephen A's, LeBron could punch one, shovel him back, hit the other, then hit the other. You go low, I go high, and we'll get him. You need someone to bite the ankles. I. I think the real answer, because Stephen a. Is not 59150. He's a big man. He's a big guy. I mean, I'm Stephen A. His punches are slow, though. Very orchestrated punches. Bigger than me. I'm. I'm 6 foot, like 190 something. Stephen A. 6, 1, 2, 20. I think three Stephen A's could take out LeBron. You know, I think that's the number one answer on the board, which, if we were playing Family Feud, I think, though, there might be people that say no more. I would say 12 people said four. I was going to say I'm going to go a four. I'm going even past that because LeBron is such a specimen. Dude, he's so fit. He's so big. He's so strong. Steve, by the way, what's the age difference? How old is Stephen a. He's what, 50? That's a good question. We know LeBron's 47. How old is he? I'll look up Stephen A's age right now. I mean, we keep in mind Mike Tyson fought a very young Jake Paul, And Tyson was 57. And that's Mike Tyson. Yeah, 57. So Stephen A's 57. He's Mike Tyson's age that matters. LeBron James, as we know, is 40. So again, more advantage. LeBron, he's still in primo physical condition. Stephen A. Man, he hasn't sniffed his prime in. In 20 years. So that being said, even though, Rich, I think you got the number one answer, when you really think about it, the fact of the matter is this. It would take for Stephen A's blasphemous to fight one LeBron James. I'm sorry, that's the truth. That's the truth. Four or three now it would take four. I'm going with Danny G. Four Stephen A's could beat Lebron in a fight. Let's play it out right now. Who's give me a big guy? Yeah. All right, well, hold on. Why, why not? Why think of a big guy? Let me just think of LeBron James. We have LeBron James in this studio right now. Say, say LeBron James is standing right here. His head would be close to the ceiling if LeBron, big man, muscly, ripped, 40 year old, physical specimen, LeBron James is standing in the Fox Sports Radio studio. Do you think me, you and Spot or Danny Spot and I was Sam with three grown men in this room. You said, hey, Isaac, Danny and Spot. Do you think those three men could take out LeBron? That's. I think so. I think three grown men. I just annoy him into submission. It's possible. I think you have to pants him first and then knock him down. Great strategy. Yeah. I don't know, man. I really do think you got to throw age in there. Stephen A. Although fit for his age and I was impressed by his arms and everything. And I like Stephen A. I'm a fan. He's 57 years old. Look how Mike Tyson at 58 looked. He's 57. I'm saying four Stephen A's versus a young. A relatively young in life and fit. LeBron James. LeBron James is the. One of the most exceptional athletes that we've seen in our lifetime. A legend. I'm not saying he's an ass kicker, but I'm sure he could throw some, some haymakers to beat up for Stephen. Ace. I'm going, I'm going with four. The answer is four. I do believe you have the number one answer, though, Rich. Three. You don't want to make an enemy out of me. All right, well, hey, let's open it up. Yeah. What do you guys think? 8, 7, 7, 9 on Fox. It's a, A real beef. It's a serious one. All right, let's go, let's go. Handicap match. Remember back in the old wrestling days where like King Kong Bundy would fight like two little, like three little people where they'd have Andre the Giant versus three guys? What? Stephen A. Could tag in like Kevin Perkins or something? No, I'm saying, like, all right, Stephen A. Who else did he insult? Winhurst Windhorst? Yeah. What if it was like, how many? Remember that scene in Stripes where John Candy wrestles all the women in the mud pit? And he's like, he's like, I used to love all those scenes. Yeah, yeah. Cuz their, their tops come off. But it's all covered, muddy of late, just to watch. Pushes their head. He pushes one down in the mud, and there's another one, like, attacking him. And then I also think, like, Kramer fighting all the kids, like, in the taekwondo dojo. Like, those just come to mind when I think of. With the kids. Yes. Such a good Seinfeld reference. He's just fighting kids. They're. They're. Again, there's power in numbers, but I think it takes three to four. I'm going with four. All right. Marcus in Indiana, I love how you guys feed in to the ridiculous thoughts we have. How many Stephen A's would it take to beat up a LeBron James? What do you think, Marcus? You're on with Kavino and rich? I say 14. 14. 14, 14. At some point, you have a weight issue. You just have enough guys piling on. LeBron, he's going to fall down, crumple into a ball. I mean, at that point, it's a beat down. Yeah. What's 14 times? That's like thousands of pounds. Thousands of pounds. I was Sam, what are you, 6 foot, 200 pounds? I'm 5, 10. Too much. Over 200 pounds. Okay, how many? How many Babe Ruth territory? How many? No, that's why I said Stephen A. Was the reverse Babe Ruth, because he doesn't look like he's 226. 1. How many Iowa. Sam's bum rushing LeBron, do you think gets the job done? You know your own strength. What do you honestly, like, if you have eight of me, eight of a guy biting the ankle. LeBron Rushy, he's so big in his. His reach. You got a guy in the ankle, you got a guy with a pipe to the knees, he'd slap. Think about. He slap you out of the way. It's the. It's the ma. It's the mass. It's the volume of Miis coming at him. His shoulder caps alone would knock a few of you out. He could just take his two hands immediately and just. He'd shove, like, the first three Irish Sam's back. You know, this thing where you get the. And then there. With his wingspan alone, he could get. You know, it's a double noggin knocker. He could probably take four of you guys. A quadruple noggin knocker. Brendan in Missouri, thank you for playing along. What's up, man? Yeah, big LeBron honk. But we've known him since he was 15 years old. He's never been in a fight. He doesn't really know what he's doing. I wouldn't think, you know, no one wants to miss three, you know, but he makes a good point. We have known LeBron since he's a teenager and he stayed out of trouble. He's a good man. So it's not like he's. It's not like LeBron's story is like, he comes from the streets and he's a hard kid and he, you know, struggled on the come up. I agree with that. But it's. Does he seem to be the kind of guy you want to mess with in that way? I feel like LeBron's got that switch where you don't want to mess with. LeBron's the type of guy also that, like, sits on a treadmill and always reads page one of a book. Right? Hey, speaking of, besides our ridiculous glass of wine, besides our ridiculous hypothetical, which I find to be great radio, and a really intriguing thought, one that you may think is dumb, but you'll share with someone else later on, guaranteed. There's probably some guy that says, this is the dumbest thing, but at dinner tonight, he's like, honey, he'll be repeating it at the. At the office tomorrow. LeBron did tie Kobe and Joe Johnson with the second most buzzer beaters ever, one behind MJ, so that he has eight. Now Michael Jordan has the record with nine, and it was his first ever buzzer beater with the Lakers last night. So that was cool to see. So you got to give him props there, too. The storyline. I know that Isaac Loincron was following us. He was in with the odd couple last night. End of the third quarter, LeBron had like three points. And I remember you guys, we were talking about whether or not LeBron was going to break his streak of double digits. And then he turned it on in the fourth quarter and made up for a pretty average game with that little tip in. In the end. And that's all that matters. I mean, yeah, he ended up winning it, so tipping it in, I think he totally redee. All right, let's say one more quickie, then we'll go to ILO Tony in Oregon. What's up, Tom? Hey, thanks for taking the call, guys. Yeah, you know, LeBron's probably taken a few, you know, martial arts classes over his time, so he. He's probably, you know, got a few moves, but I think the answer's got to be five. You got one. One for each limb. So one Stephen A's holding, you know, one arm, the left arm, and the other one's holding the right. And you got a couple legs and the fifth guy's face. Got him. Fifth guy's using his beanbag like a, like a speed bag. But hold on now. Wait, wait. As we go to Isaac for the update, Dumb and dumber style. Yeah. I want you to think of this one. I want you to think of this one. He said five for each limb. I'm like, well, what was the fifth one? The appendages of the body. You call that avido limb? Jeez. He's talking about the hang down. I think he's talking about the old tripod there. I know. Let's go to Isaac for an update. But I want everyone to think of this as we get to the rest of the phone calls. Next, LeBron, also known as a big flopper. What? What if like you. You touch LeBron, he might be like, oh, I'd go, I'd go. Elbows first at LeBron. I mean, sometimes a little elbow tap the guys down. That's such a funny angle here, guys. Like, is he that type of guy where he's. He's really soft when it comes down to it? 1 Stephen A jabs him and he's like, oh, yeah. Think about it. We'll get back to your calls. What's up, Isaac? Top two trending subjects in the entire world right now. Number one, opening day. Number two, mlb. MLB tv. We'll get to MLB tv, Major League Baseball's official streaming package. A subscription goes for 150 bucks on opening day. It's been down all day. It's not shocking. My buddy hit me up from Florida. He's a Mets fan that moved down to Florida. He goes, yo, how are you even watching? Isn't your app down? I. I use. Is baseball so hot that it shut down the app? That's what I'm thinking. I. No, seriously. I purchased my Mets package package through Amazon and it's just on my Amazon. I guess it renew works fine today. Okay. MLB TV, though. MLB TV not working. It's so widespread that it's the number two trending topic in the entire world and it's being picked up by mainstream outlets, including, of course, us. But unfortunately, MLB support seems to not be satisfying the fans either. A fan named Jeff posted his interaction with MLB support and I will reenact some of it for you here. Support. Let's get a support case started. Please provide any details that may help us resolve your issue. Jeff, the system doesn't work. Give me back my money. Support. Your case number is 037-65-692. Would you like to be transferred to a support agent? Yeah. Like right now. Support. Please reply yes to consent to sending and receiving text messages. Message and data rates will apply. Jeff. Jesus Christ. So frustrating. On that note, back to you guys. Thank you. And Isaac, the number three trending thing. How many. Yeah. How many Stephen A's does it take to beat up LeBron James? Yeah, that's number three in rising. Better watch out. Opening day. Isaac, how many times have you screamed this into the phone? Representatives. Operator. There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation. It's terrible, terrible dirt. Yazoo clay eats everything. So things that get buried there tend to stay buried until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery. 7,000 bodies out there or more, all former patients of the old state asylum. And nobody knew they were there. It was my family's mystery. But in this corner of the south, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets. Nobody talks about it. Nobody has any information. When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo Clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think. The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that. I'm Larison Campbell. Listen to under yazukle on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Are your ears bored? Yeah.

And that's what we are doing on Fighting Words. We're not gonna let anyone silence us. 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 or queer history, any history that challenges the whitewash norm or put us in a box. Black people have never ever depended on the so called mainstream to support us. That's why we are great. We are the greatest culture makers in world history.

We get all excited about it like Christmas morning, like it's nudie magazine day. We tried to break that down. And part of that is, you know, it takes you back to your childhood. What made you fall in love with the game? Want you guys to think about who it was in honor of opening day, who was your favorite baseball player of all time? But what made you love them? Like, what was it about them that made you fall in love with that player, therefore the game? Like, we all have those moments. But I remember, I remember knowing and being a little boy saying, I know I like girls because Christie Brinkley stripped by the pool in National Lampoon's Vacation. I'm like, I know I like girls. Yeah. How did you know, Richard? How did you know you loved baseball? Your answers. Ovino and Rich and 87799 on Fox. Covino, we'll start with you. You're the guy that knows automatically. I got my answer. But what do you got? Dude, the hitman. Don Mattingly is the guy that really sold me on baseball, made me fall in love with the game. And it was everything about him. You idolized these guys. It was his eye black. It was how he stood at the plate. And you would do it playing wiffle ball. Who was that for you? We get to your phone calls next, Donny. Baseball. And what did that mean? He had a style of baseball that he played. It was dirty, it was gritty, it was real baseball. And you know, you know how mamba mentality means something to a basketball fan, Donnie? Baseball meant something to a little east coast kid. It was like this guy was a ball player. He got 30 and did everything he could to help his team win. He hit six grand slams in one season. He had magical MVP years. He was nasty at first base. He was an unassuming power hitter. He wasn't like a big dude, but it was how he wore his hat. It was how he had his eye black. I mean, it was how he, he stood pigeon toed in the batter's box, left handed. Every kid playing wiffle ball. Rich for fun, you would switch sides. If you were righty, you batted lefty. And when I batted lefty, you better believe I got into my Don Mattingly baseball stance. It must have been cool to root for the the second best first baseman in New York in the 80s after Keith Hernandez. Yeah, you could say that. It's not true. I mean, who has more Gold Gloves? Who has more MVPs? I just. I'm just throwing it out there. Who has a. A better baseball career and still coaching and is a legend and should be a Hall of Fame? Who was smoking cigarettes in the dugout and doing cocaine off the strippers? Exactly why it's Don Mattingly ahead of Keith Hernandez. Oh, no, I was giving him credit for that. No, I'm not. So who got you to love the game and why? And why? Danny G, let's go to you. You're a West coast guy. Let's switch it up. Bring it out to the West Coast. Who did you fall in love with as a little kid? What made you love him? Early 80s, my grandma took me to Dodger Stadium for my first time. Pedro Guerrero was the first player me and my older brother put a poster of up in our bedroom. The way he stood tall in the batter's box. Great, great player for la. And I'll never forget the first time we saw him interviewed after a game. We were shocked that he was speaking Spanish. We thought he was African American. CC Betty and three. Yeah. We're like, what? Yeah, no doubt. He was the combo of him and Dusty Baker was awesome. Pedro Guerrero. Yeah. But we were. I mean, hello, we were kindergarten in second grade. And he was the hot card to have at that time. Yeah. When. When trading cards was. Was back in action. Iowa, Sam, who's that guy for you? Why did you love him? I feel like for Iowa, Sam, I'm going to guess before he even tells us. Yeah, I guess Fernando Valenzuela brought you back to your roots. Was there. Was there a player? Now, because I'm going to think back, I'm going to give you another angle. If you didn't have a hometown team and you lived in the middle of a cornfield in Iowa, like Sam, I grew up rooting for the Phillies, but I. That was like later in life. I didn't. Didn't you? I don't have a tradition. In the 90s, I thought every kid. Every kid rooted for Chris Saba. I thought in the 90s, every kid with glasses. Didn't you have Mike Schmidt mustache trimmings in a little Ziploc bag you got on ebay. Yeah, though that in my. Yes. I mean, like. Like a lot of people loved, you know, when I was a kid, like Frank Thomas of the White Sox growing up. And can I tell you, Frank Thomas, I got to see him hit a home run once at. At their old ballpark they played in. It's not my answer to this question, but Frank Thomas, for some reason, was one of those guys that wasn't on my team, but I took such an interest in his stats. I was just going to ask you guys that question. Who was the first baseball player for another team that you loved and you had a couple pages of plastic sheets obsessed with their cars. Others loved Griffey Jr. I was like, no, no, Frank Thomas is my guy. That's cool. That's a good answer. But, yeah, Griffey Jr. Poster and everything. For me, it was Eric Davis. Oh, he was great. He was a tough guy. Oh, man. Loved his batting stance, his sw. The way he held the bat. I wanted Eric back then. I wanted Eric Davis on the Dodgers so badly. And this is a weird reference, but every kid could relate. He was nasty in the game, RBI. He had 37 home runs that year, and he was on the National League All Star team in RBI baseball. So you associate things that. How good were they in video games as well at that time? I remember Wade Boggs batted.368 just because of RBI baseball. Yeah, seriously. You knew your stats, you knew your cards. And if you're a kid of the 80s, one of the best baseball fights of all time was Ray Knight and Eric Davis at third base. Ray Knight gets into, like, a fighting Irishman stance. Like, put him up, put him up. And him and Eric Davis tussled. Yeah, it was a really great baseball fight in the 80s. But my answer, who got me into baseball? I grew up a Mets fan, so there's so many choices, right? Was it Keith? Was it Gary Carter being all clean cut with his, you know, Irish Spring commercials and, you know, drinking milk? To me, it was Dwight Gooden. I was a pitcher in Little League. I wore number 16. It's always been my lucky number. And I'm a Montana fan in football, so 16. My daughter's birthday's the 16th. That number follows me. And as a kid, the billboards of Dwight Gooden when he pitched at Shea Stadium back in the day, that place was electric. If drugs and alcohol and stuff didn't get in his way, would have been one of the greatest ever. Friday night's appointment. Watching. Watching Dwight Good in New York. Even if you weren't a Mets fan, Rich, was there a scrub on the team that you loved? Seriously, like, that you just rooted for so hard. Timmy Tuffle. Tim Tuffle. Timmy. Not a scrub, but I remember the Tuffle Shuffle. I have Two of them. And I say scrub. You know, respectfully, Bobby Meacham. For me, I always rooted for him. And Randy Velardi, as time went on too, I always rooted for that guy. What you got, Isaac? First of all, Rich, have you ever read a book called the Bad Guys One? Oh, such a great book. It's the only book I've read since where the Wild Things Are. You didn't miss much. It's a great book. This is super random, but for me, Alejandro Pena. Now, Alejandro Pena was the winning pitcher in the Kirk Gibson home run game. Later, when the Braves made their first run to the World Series in 91, he got clutch strikeout after clutch strikeout down the stretch in the LCS and in the World Series. But he had a really distinctive, super graceful wind up and pitching motion. And so when I was of that age, I would always wear out the right toe on my tennis shoes, like every month. And my mom was dragging your foot? Yes, my mom was like, why do I keep having to buy you new shoes? Why is it just the right toe? And I realized it was because I was emulating the Alejandro Pena pitching motion so, so much. That's a good one and it's a great. I would emulate the high leg kick overhand heat of a Dwight Gooden and he would drag his foot every year I'd have to get. There was a little addition you would put on your cleats for if you drove, if you did drag your right foot. Or you'd have to buy shoe goo to replay your players. But it does go to show you the impact that these players have on not not only you, but kids today and how special it is. And that's why we're excited about baseball, man. Randall. Randall, question for you. Yeah. As we get to the rest of the phone calls. Phones are hot. Love talking baseball. Danny Isaac, Iowa, I was saying, he's like, I don't know. I don't remember any of this when you were a kid. I'm trying to think like in obviously in the 90s, like the Cubs and the Cardinals are pretty much Iowa's teams. Yeah. So you had Sammy Sosa and Mark McGuire, but like that whole thing. But like, I don't, I don't. Yeah, I don't have a player. There was no guy. Who. Do you remember being the signature inside your glove? Oh, that's a good one. I remember having a Rawlings infield glove. I had the Ozzy Smith. So many people had Robin. Yeah, Robin. Yeah. Was a big one, a very popular one. Mine, actually, I got mine off of mine, fell off the truck. My uncle gave it to me and said it was a Jim Palmer glove that I had, but I loved it. A lot of us had hand me downs. My grandpa gave me an old glove and he said, I want you to play second base. It was a Joe Morgan signature. Oh, nice. That's cool. Yeah. You know, years later, we actually worked with Joe Morgan's daughter. Not totally random, but we did. And she was super sweet. He's a legend for sure. So those little things, though, put those players on your radar. And maybe for that reason, you rooted for them or kept an eye on them and fell in love with the sport. And that's what we're asking today in honor of opening day, your favorite player of all time. But what made you love him? Yeah, what made you fall in love? There was something about him. Like, Isaac described that moment perfectly, like he'll never forget it, and that sold him moving forward. Greg in Portland, you're on. What's up, buddy? Yeah, man. And I love this topic, by the way. Nice. 1996, Andrew Jones came into the league for the first time and that was. That was it. You know who I fell in love with that year? John Wetland. They were going to say Carmen Electra. No, no, no, but remember that. But John Wetland. That's cool. And no, Andrew Jones and that Braves team that they, they were great. They lost the Yankees, but Andrew Jones was incredible. You're absolutely right. That team, Chipper Jones, Andrew Jones. It's a shame that team won one World Series. As a, as a, as a crew. Say hi to. Let's go to John in Maine. John Cavino and Rich. What's up, buddy? Hey, guys. I haven't listened to you guys in a long time, but they switched me to nights at the hospital, so I finally get to listen to you. Well, hey, welcome back, brother. How's. How you feeling? And what do you think? What player made you fall in love with baseball and opening day? This is old school and it defines my age. Stormin, Gorman, Thomas from the Milwaukee brewers. And I can still name off almost every player from back then in this late 70s, early 80s. That's awesome. I loved his pose at. He didn't have any flair as a wind up or anything. He just stood at the plate, waited for that ball and knocked the living daylights out of it. You know who you got to give credit to because it took like 25, 30 years for someone to think of this on social media. Batting stance, guy. Dude. I was just thinking I recently saw he did funny. He did your 96 Yankees and I thought of you. I was like, I love it, man. Batting stance. Guy is still funny because it's what all of us did. You went through your team's lineup. You'd be like. You're like now batting Lenny Dyke, and you'd be all down. Yes. And then that's a question for you guys. The number one batting stance you used to Darryl Strawber, number one answer on the board. That's. That's when you're ready to hit some bombs. We used to crouch down and do Ricky Henderson's dance. For sure, man. No doubt. So, yeah, even as a Yankees fan growing up Daryl Strawberry, I mean, that meant it was like it's home run time. So the bat twirl. Yeah, you were ready. So the number again. 877-99-FOX. If we don't get to you hit us at Covino and Rich. We throw it back. Go old school. And 50 hits taking you back to your childhood days. You had that poster in your room. Eventually it came down for Carmen Electra. But that player made you fall in love with the game. What was it about him that made you love him? I'll tell you this. As I watch a Yankees game out of the corner of my eye. Yeah. That facial hair isn't given Devin Williams much confidence. He's about to blow this game. I hope not. By the way, my answer was Don Mattingly. Rich, Quick story, and I'll make it quick. Went to a Yankees game and I'm wearing my Donnie baseball don mattingly number 23 baseball shirt. Right, the T shirt. They didn't print shirts for everybody back in the day. It was just the star players. I'm wearing my Don Matting T shirt. And you know, my dad gets into New York City, Bronx traffic. And who are we sitting right next to in traffic on the way home? Don Mattingly. Right? Me and my buddy. Another kid named Rich. My little league pal Richie. Right. We're in the car, we look over to the left. Does he cry some days thinking I could have been the rich of communal route. Maybe. Maybe Don Mattingly is side by side with us in traffic. Like what? On the Major Deegan or whatever. Are you sure it was Don Mattingly? It was Mattingly. It was. And you know, your little kid imagination goes wild. But it was a gold Mercedes. But in my mind it was made of gold. Right? Because I was a kid. But it was a gold Mercedes. True story. And I'll never forget. Like. Like I look over And I go to my dad, oh, my God, it's Don Mattingly. And my dad was like, yeah, whatever. He didn't look. He thought we were lying. My buddy came over. Yo, it's Don Mattingly. My dad still thinks we're trying to, like, prank him to look. It's Don Mattingly. Stuck in traffic. My dad finally turns to the left and he sees Don Mattingly. He's like. He rolls his window down. Gaehead, Don. And he let Don Mattingly cut in front of us in traffic. But Don Mangley waved to us, gave us the thumbs up. Made me love him even more. Just seemed like the coolest dude in New York. And he wasn't a New York sort of guy. You know what I mean? He was just a ball player. I love your story, but I'm gonna. I'm gonna. True story. I believe he was just a mustache guy from the Bronx. My dad. My dad let Don Mattingly cut him in traffic. And he was super grateful for it. It happened. Let's say what's up to. Where do you want to go, Danny G. Let's go to Dwayne in Odessa. Let's go, rapid fire. We'll wrap this up on opening day. Who made you fall in love with the game? What's up, man? Yeah, I would have to say Kirby Puckett, center field. Just running around all over the place, diving. And then in the World Series, Twins are down. He says, everybody jump on my back. I'm going to carry you to the World Series. You know, that's pretty. It's pretty special. He was so great, man. Don't you feel like you picture him gracefully jumping against the wall? Yeah. Against that plexiglass. Yeah. Like, without a doubt. Kirby Puckett was incredible. Paul in North Carolina. What's up, man? Paulie. You're Paul. Hey, yo, Paulie. Hey, fellas. How you guys doing? What good, man. What's up? I mean, I'm a little nervous. Yankees about to lose this game. I'm gonna. I'm gonna answer you guys a couple of your questions. Rapid fire. I'm a 44 year old Mets fan. So when I was in 86, I had just turned 6 years old, so you. You and I. You and I are the exact same. So here we go. Let's. Let's hear. Yep. Well, Gary. Gary Carter was like my favorite player. Remember that Ivory Soap commercial where he ripped a bar soap in half? I thought it was the coolest damn thing. The first player outside of the Mets that I really adored was Tony Gwynn. I had a poster in my room. He had bats in one hand and balls in the other. And the poster said, it's not the bats, it's the balls. I thought that was great. Yeah. The first signature in a glove. The first signature in a glove. I remember I was a squatty, fat kid, and I had the black catchers go out with the orange outside target. And it was a Lance Parish signature. I remember that one. That was a big one for sure, by the way. Let's go, Mets. All right. Let's go. Yep. Hey, I won't feel so bad if your Yankees blow it here. I hope not. Who's up? Cheerio. Oh. Let's go. Williams with the whiff. Two outs. They need one more out for the win. All right, back to the 42 Yankees, but the brewers got runners on second and third. I know. You know what? They just went to some Yankees guidos in the stands, high fiving. They just jinxed you. Let's go, brew crew. All right, wrap it up. Albert in Texas. What's up, man? Hey, what's going on, guys? Big Astros fan. I got an iconic duo. Jeff Bagwell and Craig Biggio. Yo, if you were an Astros fan during that time, Bagwell and Biggio were such a dynamic duo, such. Such great ball players. And that was even when you change your logo to that, like, cosmic looking, corny uniform. Remember those years? Of course. Ye. Yeah. You mean like the Mike Scott, Kevin Bass years? Those years? See, I like. I like that cheesy Rainbow 80s one. Yeah. You know, one more. We'll go to Arizona and say hi to Corey, and then we'll move on. What's up, man? Hey, real quick. Rapid fire. So, my two favorite players. I'm a die hard Oakland A's fan, born in 89. I watched the Earthquake series with my dad on the couch as a baby. Anyways, Eric Burns, Nick Swisher. I don't care what anybody Sundays. They were two of the most exciting players that I got to watch. And you just named. You just named, like, two of the most charismatic players. I love Nick Swishlish, man. I think he's great. I love his energy. I love his vibe. Great answers. Is a great guy, too. And yeah. Oh, yeah. Two super personality plus dudes. Rich is right. And we can't get to everybody. We appreciate your phone calls, but I do want to hear your feedback again at Covino and Rich on X, on ig, everywhere on social media. Covino and Rich. Let me pose this question, then we'll go. I'll pose A question. Think about it. And you can hit us up at Covino and Rich. Or if you want to chime in. You know what I'm thinking about, though, Rich, when we talk about this, the superstar comes to mind. The Mattingly, the Gooden, those guys, right. The Wade Boggs is of the world. But there was also a lot of fun in that dude who wasn't that good. But you really pulled for, of course, that. That pulled you into the game because you're like, yeah, I know he's not the best, but it really gets me involved. And like I said, some of those guys really got you even more into the game. Okay, so here's my question for you. Who's your favorite crazy baseball player? Crazy. Two options. Two options. Jose Canseco. Yeah. Or Lenny Dykstra. Well, it's funny because Canseco's in the news. I know, but Dykstra or Canseco? Think of that, because there's a story about one of them. Okay. And his name is Jose Canseco. We'll get to that in a bunch. More. There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation. It's terrible, terrible dirt. Yazoo clay eats everything. So things that get buried there tend to stay buried until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery. 7,000 bodies out there or more, all former patients of the old state asylum, and nobody knew they were there. It was my family's mystery. But in this corner of the south, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets. Nobody talks about it. Nobody has any information. When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think. The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that. I'm Larison Campbell. Listen to under yazukle on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Are your ears bored? Yeah. Are you looking for a new podcast that will make you laugh, learn and say que? Yeah. Then tune in to locatora radio season 10 today. Okay. I'm Diosa. I'm Mala, the host. Host of Locatora Radio, a radiophonic novella, which is just a very extra way of saying a podcast. We're launching this season with a miniseries, totally nostalgic, a four part series about the Latinos who shaped pop culture in the early 2000s. It's Lala checking in with all things Y2K 2000s. My favorite memory, honestly, was us having our own media platform like Mundos and MTV Tres. You could turn on the TV. You see Thalia, you see JLo, Nina Sky, Evie Queen, all the girlies doing their things. All of the beauty reflected right back at us. It was everything. Tune in to locatora radio season 10. Now that's what I call a podcast. Listen to Locatora Radio Season 10 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. We ready to fight? I'm ready to fight. Is that what I thought it was? Oh, this is Fighting Words. Okay, I'll put the hammer back. Hi, I'm George M. Johnson, a best selling author with the second most banned book in America. Now more than ever, we need to use our voices to fight back. And that's what we are doing on Fighting Words. We're not gonna let anyone silence us. 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 or queer history, any history that challenges the whitewashed norm or put us in a box. Black people never ever depended on the so called mainstream to support us. That's why we are great. We are the greatest culture makers in world history. Listen to Fighting Words on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, I'm Bob Pittman, chairman and CEO of iHeartMedia. I'm excited to introduce a brand new season of my podcast, Math and Stories from the Frontiers of Marketing. I'm having conversations with some interesting folks across a wide range of industries to hear how they reach the top of their field and the lessons they learned along the way that everyone can use. I'll be joined by innovative leaders like chairman and CEO of Health Beauty, Tarang Amin. The way I approach risk is constantly try things and actually make it okay to fail. I'm sitting down with legendary singer, songwriter and philanthropist Jewel. I wanted a way to do something that I loved for the rest of my life. We're also hearing how leaders brought their businesses out of unprecedented at times like Stefan Bonsell, CEO of Moderna. It becomes a human decision to decide to throw by the window your business strategy and to do what you think is the right thing for the world. Join me as we uncover innovations in data and analytics, the math and the ever important creative spark, the magic. Listen to math and magic stories from the frontiers of marketing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pug podcast. I'm Mary Kay McBrayer, host of the podcast the Greatest True Crime Stories Ever Told. Join me every week as I tell some of the most enthralling true crime stories about women who are not just victims, but heroes or villains or often somewhere in between. Listen to the greatest true crime stories ever told on the iHeartRadio app. App, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So answer the question I posed before the break. And then we go, who's your favorite crazy player? Your. Your favorite crazy player? I narrowed it down to two. You could throw a wild card in there. But if I said I was going to say wild thing. Rick Vaughn. Who do you find more entertaining? Jose Canseco or Lenny Dykstra? The answer for me is easy. We've interviewed Lenny Dykstra, and he's a fun time. He's a little creepy. What about his. I say that respectfully. He does all those weird sex tips on the Howard Stern Show. He gets raunchy. He's funny. He told Colin Cowherd back in the day that he would hire private investigators to follow umpires around. And he began he thought he had dirt on, that he would find out if an umpire was cheating on his wife. And he'd be like, hey, Hank, I hope Marcia doesn't find out about what you're doing and be like. And he said his on base percentage went up all of a sud the next pitch. Ball. Next one ball. Wild guy. So my favorite player would be Conseco. Like, crazy player Conseco. Because, I mean, he was just such a beast. He was so big. He was like a big giant in the batter's box. And then he did so many goofy things. He's always blinking all the time, and he's always, like, up to some weird tweet. And then he did something weird this week. He's in the news this week doing something weird. Oh, it's funny because it's so sweet and it's not necessarily in character. It's nice for Jose. It's just funny the way he looks walking around in character in full age uniform with a bat. Am I correct in saying he read to school children? Yeah. Las Vegas had him out to one of their elementary schools for, like, one of those reading weeks. Hey, dude, it's ridiculous. He shows up in full uniform and a bat. Like, that's ridiculous. And he answered questions for all the kids. I'm Jose Canseco, and this book is called the Puppy who Lost His Way. You're right. It's sweet, but it's so hilarious. Cause you see these pictures and you see this big goon walking in this, in the hallways in his uniform. It's so funny to see. And are we 100% certain it wasn't Ozzy Canseco? Like, he sends his brother out there to do this. Ozzy, this one's for you. It's like, you ever hear the story of Tom Hanks? You know, Tom Hanks is the voice of Woody from Toy Story. But when Tom Hanks is too busy, his brother, like, Jeb Hanks. I don't know his brother's name. Jeb Hanks, but his brother, he has his brother do, like, the voiceovers for the toys and all the other Woody things he doesn't have time for. Or his son, Brawny Hanks. Yeah. Y. No, no. So, like, don't forget about Chet. You remember the Woody. Like, pull string, there's a snake in my boot. That's not Tom Hanks. That's his brother who's getting the royalties for that. Yeah. So, like, I wonder if. If Ozzie Canseco goes on his behalf. This looks like Jose. It says he volunteered to read to a fourth grade class for Las Vegas for their Nevada Reading Week, a statewide event to celebrate literacy. He stayed after. After reading the book. He stuck around for a Q and A with the kids and he signed photos. Did it say what book he read or not? Yeah, the Berenstain Bears. I want to know, what little golden book did he read? Hey, it's me, Jose Canseco, and today we're going to read the Three Chinese Brothers. It's definitely a baseball book. You can't see the title, but you see a baseball player on the front of the book he's reading. Oh, that's so funny. Let's go to our buddy Isaac Loincron, and if you can think of some other funny, crazy players like the Jose Cansecos and Lenny Dykschers of the world. Hit us up. Kobenonrich for me in a good way. Rex Hudler and one of the nicest, nicest guys you will ever come across. Indeed. What about Turk Wendell? Remember he would throw, yeah, number 99 snake teeth around his neck and he would slam down the rosin bag every time. I love it. I mean, the list just goes on and on and on in Major League Baseball. But I also echo Ricky Henderson. He briefly was with the Dodgers. He lockered next of all people, Dave Roberts, now the Dodgers manager. And they got along great. But Ricky Henderson could not stop referring to him as Robinson. He would be repeatedly told, his name's not Dave Robinson, it's Roberts. And Ricky was like, yeah, I get it. Robinson. Robinson. Right in character for Rickey Henderson. Austin Wells and Anthony Volpe had home runs for the New York Yankees today. Their 42 opening day win over the brewers, who left runners at second and third in the ninth inning. Baltimore Orioles hit six home runs and a 122 win at Toronto. Adalie Ruchman and Cedric Mullins homered twice. Tyler O'Neal homered on opening day for the sixth straight season. Well, enjoy your madness, baby. Dipsy doo Dunkaroo. Enjoy your college basketball, but enjoy Ice Cube being paraded around Dodger Stadium in a slammed Impala, getting his flowers, as they say. What a celebration they're putting on, though, at Dodger Stadium. It's incredible, let me tell you. That is pretty awesome what they're doing. But Acuna just wants he and he put up a stellar at bat to load the bases for the Mets in the ninth inning. And they're down three nothing to the Astros. So, man, baseball really slaying it. I know it's all about the madness right now, and I know it's all about college basketball and it's heating up, but opening day is delivering, just setting the tone for what I predict is going to be a really exciting season for the ages. Quick reminder, Rich. Tomorrow, is it me or Bill Belichick? Is the game that sweep in the nation Cavino or Bill Belichick? Apparently, we're the same guy. Plus, we get you ready for the weekend with weekend hobnobbing that's on tomorrow's show. But in just eight minutes, we give you over promised our bonus show on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. So get ready and join us live. No doubt. Now, before we get out of here, I know we got like two minutes. I'm like so locked into this next game. Bases loaded, no outs, are down three. Quack, quack, quack. As you said during the last break, we were talking about how baseball, if you're not feeling the momentum of baseball and the fans and everything going on with mlb, you're, you're sleeping, you're living under a rock. There's a vibe. There's definitely a different level of excitement. No doubt. In the past two years. Just saw the Bryce Harper home run earlier. You know, superstars, young pitcher on the Nationals struck out with 13. Like, it's just a lot, a lot of good baseball and I'm pumped. But there's a viral video from a couple days ago. You and I have Been goofing about it off the air. Yeah. Morning routine guy. His name is Ashton hall and sweeping the nation. Have you seen this guy with his ridiculous morning routine? Wakes up at three in the morning, splashes, like, ice water in his face. No, no, no. Saratoga. Sparkling water. He dunks his face in it to, I guess, open up his face, tighten up his pores. Like, it's gone so viral, people are making parody videos of it. But it's so next level. He's taking a swim. He's writing in his journal. He's brushing his teeth for over two minutes. And he does all this before Danny, you and I and Cavino and everyone even wakes up. But he's getting nothing done. He's getting something done early. It's so ridiculous. I think what's cool about it is you take a little piece of it here and there, right? But it really makes you feel terrible about your morning routine. I'm not meditating. I don't got time for a sweat. My morning routine, like wearing yesterday's clothes while I put on a pair of Crocs to drop my kids off at school. Dude, it's coming. Gone so viral, it's everywhere. And if you haven't seen it yet, you're bound to see it tonight. And everyone's watching. What is it, Logan? Paul? People are making videos. Yo, Martin. You Martin Weiss? Who's gonna be in with the Odd Couple next? This guy's out of his mind, huh? I know. I had some Saratoga water this morning. All right. Same day. Same kind of day, though. Same kind of day. Nothing changed. Well, this guy's dipping his face in it, so. Sipping it. You gotta see. I was missing the ice in the bowl, so maybe that was the problem. No banana. And he had. He rubbed bananas on his face. I feel like we got. You have to do this one day. Yeah. Maybe wake up one day and see if it changes everything. I dip my face in vodka. Yeah, you can shine your shoes with banana peels. This. Yeah, it sounds impossible. Dude, you know what? But this is what he does for a living. He's a fitness lifestyle coach and all that. So we'll talk about that and more tomorrow. But join us on Over Promised. Not until then. Ariva Dare she, baby, see you in the over promised land. Goodbye.

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 commercial really got me. It's a strong reminder that hate in our country continues to be out of control. So join us at iHeart in standing up to it. If you see hate, speak up. Call it out. Your voice is a powerful tool in this fight. You can learn more by following OTs upwithhate in Mississippi, Yazoo Clay keeps secrets. 7000 bodies out there or more.
