You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.
Ah ride man Bringam went off this morning early like mister Furley, like the old guy, alarm Jack, and just one word came to mind. Fun. But then again, I get so excited to fill in for DP Covino and Rich day two of the Dan Patrick Unnatural Holiday Hatrick Gary Christmas Eve. I'm Christmas Steve. That is Rich And there is a way too many Christmas story references in the studio. You already did your fudge. We have a leg lamp and spots got a Buddy shirt on? Oh you got a Ralphie shirt on? I knew with the soap in his mouth. Most overrated Christmas movie and we're gonna get to it on Today show. I think it's trash. I think it's Garbaggio. Well, actually hold your horses. We're gonna talk about the greatest r rated Christmas movies today for your adult viewing pleasures, I guess. But if you want to dump on this classic, yeah, be my guest. Hey, it's not like I love it so much, although I do like it. Scott Farcas and Ralphie and Randy and major Reward. I probably bought this at Target because I had to wear it to a stupid holiday party and it's the only reason I have it, So today's the only appropriate day to wear it and get my money's worth out of this ten dollars t shirt of Christmas story. So I'm trying to be festive, like I said, Christmas Steve, Christmas Eve, Happy Hanukkah Tomorrow, Merry Christmas, and thank you guys for being here, like I said, always a pleasure to fill in for Dan Patrick. If you missed yesterday's show. I thought it was fun. I thought it went great, So catch it on the podcast again. I'm Covino, that is Rich. We're on two to four out here on the West Monday through Friday on Fox Sports Radio five to seven on the East. Just search Covino and Rich wherever you stream your podcast. Let's welcome super producer Chase step No.
Hello.
Yeah, he's a super producer. He's a super professional. He's been there, done that, from Jim Rome to Doug Gottlieb, He's done it all. He's an actor. He's probably been in a Christmas movie. We don't even know about it. So I feel like we're not worthy of the Jay Stu. I think he was probably in like Home Alone four no, like Yeah, definitely in a Hallmark movie. Yeah, he's probably been in one. He's done it all now. He was in a lifetime Christmas movie. Always fun to work with. Jay stew He's on the phones at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox and being the most interactive show, most inclusive show on radio. We welcome you to talk trash, to say Mary Christmas, to hit us up at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. On social media, Let's go, did Jayce do play like the douchey big city boyfriend that was holding the girl back? Yeah, he's definitely like the Glenn Goulia type. Definitely the Glenn Goulia of Christmas movies. So we'll talk Christmas movies. We're gonna talk the best Christmas sports toy of your childhood. We haven't number one answer, it's a clear answer. We're gonna talk a little Charlie Woods if we have time, lots to get to I just want to give him props. I think he seems like a swell kid, like a nice fella, and I'm happy for his moment with his dad is hold in one. That's really it. But before we talk Packers Rich, So I hope you had a Green Bay Packers sort of Monday night. Can I just say that it was a boring game? So the whole time I'm sitting there watching him dominate, and I'm like, all right, can I turn it off? Now? How about now? How about now? And I'm debating that keep it on?
Eh?
But I gotta wake up early. I want to get out with my night. So I put on Dexter Original Sin the new series episodes deep, three episodes deep now, and I gotta tell you, I think there's a lot of people people sleep on things like the Packers. People are sleeping on the new Dexter prequel. If you never watched Dexter, it doesn't matter. But I could say it's probably one of the best of our twenty years of working together. I agree. I'm a big Dexter fan. So I like what you're saying. People are sleeping on two things, Dexter and the Green Bay Packers that we're gonna get to. Yeah, why in a second, Maybe it's a hot woman that nobody talks about. And you're like, I can't believe nobody talks about it. Who else? What else are we sleeping on? Because the Packers are probably the number one answer. But please, let me just tell you this. I'm thinking to myself self, gotta wake up five am out here on the West side to do DP. Can't stay up that late. So I shut the game off because the Packers are destroying, right, They're dominating this game. I put on Dexter. Two new episodes are out, there's three total. This is the prequel to the original series Dexter. So they had to recast, and this is the key. They had to recast all the characters. You grew up knowing and casting is everything, and this is why you love it. The guy that plays young Dexter a young Michael C. Hall almost identical, dude, You're like, that's the guy, ah dentical. The guy that plays Bautista, same guy, Loud Guerta is Christina Milian, Like, it's unbelievable casting Masuka remember that guy of course, the Asian dude, the young version of him, totally different guy, all different people, different cast, identical, nailing the part. You could see how well it was written. It's so good, dude. I'm not into prequels and things like that. This is so worth the watch, and it's narrated You got me by the original Michael C. Hall. So my point is, by the way, when you said you know Masuka, I'm like the Asian guy, I knew that it wasn't just a guess because that would have been the easiest guest. Oh Masuka, the Asian guy. Oh yeah, yeah. Well look, Covino and were celebrated twenty years of working together. Twenty years of working together and still the youngest in the game. I don't know how. And we were on the air when Sopranos was running. Okay, Dexter's right up there with the best. People sleep on it, and people are sleeping on the new series. I'm here to tell you watch it and enjoy, and you could write me a thank you note at Steve Covino. There was a turning point in the original Dexter. See I watched the whole series, my Dark Passenger. But there's a lot of people that said after the John Lifgo season, who are those people who show me them? Like most people, that's the key. It's like walking dead, like to be dead. When people say when Carl died, they gave up everybody there was there was a point. There's outrage. Where's the outrage? Show me the outrage shaking in uh in in social media headlines? Who said it sucked? After that? Show me? I'm a punch him in the face. No one's ever said it. Dexter was great. I love the criticism. Was the last episode of the final season right and how it ended. And I'm telling you they I think they saved it because they had a comeback. But watch it and enjoy. But the point is people are sleeping on it the same way they're sleeping on the Green Bay Packers. Cuz look, I do the show with Rich every day. He loves talking NFL. This dude never mentions the Packers. And I see that. Every once in a while. I see one dude say, hey, man, we watched the talking Heads on TV. We watched the people on ESPN fighting just like you do. I see Herbstreet and stephen A and having words. Yeah, I see them having words. Every once in a while, I'll hear somebody say, man, if there's any team that could be any team any given day, any given Sunday in the NFL, is to Green Bay Packers. Once in a while. I hear that once in a blue moon. But they're not sexy. No one really likes to talk about them. You don't think Jordan loves sexy if they're sleeping on. I think that Michael C. Hall and Jordan Love have a lot in common people. We both have dark passengers. I think Jay stew you and I before the show, we're talking about how it's almost like Jordan Love has an on switch that's flipped. By the way, no relation to Darlene Love. Right, Christmas Baby, please come home. I think it's his aunt. Is it no start that rumor? I heard Buddy Love? Is his uncle? Buddy Love? By the way, the game was so boring last like, did you see in the fourth quarter Joe Buck's doing elf impressions? You know, I think I missed. You told me, but I missed that part. I must have been sweeping the floor out of board them. They're coming out of commercial at this point. It's like twenty seven nothing. Can I give you two indicators? And when you know you're tuned out of the game or you're bored, yeah, when you start looking at your phone as indicator number one, this is not grabbing my attention. I'd rather look at something stupid on social media. I'm feeling the compulsion to look. Or when you just start wiping down your counters or you pick up a broom, you're like, I guess the game is kind of boring because if I choose cleaning over that, it means I'm just trying to do two things at once. Oh, we get those smudges on the window. They're coming out of commercial and they panned to the crowd and it's a bunch of people dressed up like Buddy the Elf, and Joe Buck's like, hey, Buddy, hope your fun You're dead, and I'm like, no, bit, Joe Buck, it's doing alf impressions. There's nothing wrong with I was going into a football game, you know. I think that's where sports made a wrong turn. It's sports, it's entertainment, and people take it far too. Not that they shouldn't take a series, but in a stuffy way, right. I always found it interesting that a bunch of sports fans wearing beer helmets watch dudes and suits talk about it. I agree on per guys of face paint in the stands and dudes with suits breaking it down wearing cufflakes yeah, it's fun. So to see Joe Buck have a little fun with a boring game is okay with me. So let's talk about the Packers for a second. And I'm not one of these Jibbronis that have been downplaying you are. GABBRONI though the Green Bay Packers. My wife, her family there Packers fans, so like I got my dad to the streets of the Packers, meaning these squads, Oh, meaning you don't you never talked about I'm the Steelers And I'm starting to see why the Steer because I never believed in him. But last night there's certain teams that you just don't hit on and the public sort of forgets. Let me let me first of all, tell everyone about the worst beat last night. You know, Scott van Pelt does bad beats when a bet just misses. I just happen to see someone adamantly on social media talking about the best bet of the night might be Jordan Love under twenty nine attempts passing the ball because the thought was Green Bay would be up so big they'd run the ball in the second half. And he's thrown under thirty passes the last like three out of four games, So I was like, you know, let me keep it eye. I didn't make the bet, and then in the fourth corner he's at twenty eight. I'm like, ooh, this is gonna be close. They take him out for the last series. So anyone that made that bet twenty eight attempts and Vegas had it at twenty nine sixteen for twenty eight one hundred eighty two yards one tuddy, no picks, just a very easy night of work for green Bay. So to show that I'm not sleeping on this team, I immediately looked at the Super Bowl odds because I could see one team that I think is the best value. It's by far Matt Lafleur, Jordan Love and these Green Bay Packers. They're just in a loaded division. You're gonna hate this analogy, but dare I say, if you do it like Colin Cowhert, I might like it. Stars attract stars, stars and stars are stars stars. So when you're in a division with two thirteen and two teams and everyone's talking about the gutsy Ballsy Lions and everyone's talking about Sam Darnold, it's not a good story anymore. This guy's legit. They're thirteen and two when you're talking about two thirteen and two teams and then you got the Packers eleven and four, two games behind them, it's so easy to sleep on them. Dare I say it's like my New York Mets last year. Yes, they call it lightning in a bottle in the playoffs until they hit Jay Stews Dodgers in reality struck. But the Mets spent the whole season in third place behind the Phillies and the Braves, and it made sense because those teams were arguably just better. Or the Mets stunk for like two months. That was part of it. You tuned out. I hate to call you out, but that's the reason. The reason you tuned out is because they sucked so bad, which is why it was such a good story when they pulled it all together last month and a half of the season. Yeah, but let it be known they sucked for a good run. They did. But what I'm saying is they still ended up winning. Oh man, they had a magical season, ended up winning eighty nine games, and they sort of had a bad last week of the season. So the Mets are like, they were like a ninety win team and went way unto the radar, because all year long it was all about Bryce Harper and the Phillies and Logain. The Atlanta won the World Series a couple of years ago. In the next year, yeah, and I think no one really paid attention. And I think right now we're so hung up on man listen and the Niners are out of it, So it's gonna be a new representative in the NFC. Are the Lions finally gonna do it? Oh my god, what a great story with Minnesota. And then the other narrative is like, oh, we don't really want Philly again unless you live in Philly. No one's talking about green Bay right now. And the Super Bowl odds. Sweet, the Super Bowl odds right now are fantastic for the Green Bay Packers. The worst value you want the worst value Detroit and Kansas City are both roughly plus four hundred now for the non gambling fool. Plus four hundred means you bette hundred, you win four hundred. That's terrible value. Kansas City plus four hundred plus four fifty at some sports books, plus three seventy five meaning you getting like three to one odds, four to one odds right now in Vegas one two three, four, five six. They have the seventh best odds, and the reason is Comino that they're gonna have to play every round of the playoffs, and they're gonna have to play every round on the row ad because they're a wild card. But right now, the Green Bay Packers are plus fourteen hundred and plus fifty teen hundred in some places. That to me is great value. I know that means they have to go on the road multiple times, but do you really look at Green Bay and say they are a lesser team than Detroit, Minnesota, Philadelphia? Really? Yeah? And here's why. And I look at I'm a fight fan. I look at football the same way I look at fights. I look for the best matchups. I like matchups, and I have a team. I watch the games that entry interests me the most based on the matchup, and any fight that goes down, I'm like, all right, well who did he be? Or anytime I'm thinking of any boxer a fighter, I'm like, well, who who did he lose to? By the way, the most weird fact about Steve Kabeeno, if you're new to our show, most of all the things about you, and I'm sure you can Dave a lot of weird things about me, the fact that you don't have a football team. Every other sport. Yes, football, He's like, I watched the matchups. How do you not have a lout of the great Stone. I don't think and cow Herd does either, a lot of the great Yeah. I keep my opinions, you know, objective, keep you analysts. It keeps me honest, you know the journalists, and it keeps me tuned in because how much of a games that I like it as opposed to one team. You're as much of your journalist as Bobby the brains. You already tuned out because your niners around. I'm still tuned in because I like the matchups every week. Where's an NFL hat like Rob Low? Did that? I do? It's true, no, no, no, But like anytime a boxer comes up, I'm like, well, what was his legacy? He lost three fights? Well, who did he lose to? And if he loses to all the big names, like all right, he beating nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, but he lost the three names that I know. It's like, well, he was good, but he wasn't that good because he lost to all the big names. I look up the Wikipedia and the the fight records the same way you're looking at, well, who did Green Bay lose to? They're eleven and four, right, he's a big Roger Goodel fan. They're eleven and four. They lost to the Eagles. They lost to the Lions twice. If I'm not mistaken. Yes, they lost to the Broncos in the preseason. That's preseason. So they lost to the Lions. Lions, get the schedule. You're gonna make this battle. Get your schedule ready and they'll be looking at preseason games. No, I just said it. They lost to the Lions, Lions, Vikings, Eagles. This is horses. Okay, No, that does not Again, styles make fights. Matchups are what I love, So I get it. But if they can't beat those teams, that says a lot to me. I'm not saying that's to be all end all, but it shows that those teams are a little bit better to me. Doesn't mean they can't make adjustments. Sports life, football, it's all about adjustments. Do you think they have enough momentum where oh, they could beat an Eagles, they could beat the Lions. They could you know what I mean? They could be that team. They could beat a Vikings. I don't know. I think they're good, but they're like right under, right under that level of good. They got like a bright future.
I think Vegas might disagree with, you know, only because I just looked at the odds for Sunday. This is early. Packers are at the Vikings and they are getting a point and a half, which essentially means they're favorite. I had Vegas thinks the packers.
Are, and I would never bet against Vegas. Yeah. Somehow they always know these things, and I often wonder, like, rich, how do they know? How do they know?
Can?
I I hate to call you out because it is, you know, Christmas Eve and your Christmas Steve, their stupid ass Christmas story shared on Hey, I came in festive. We're all festive except you, except for you. It rolls out in his pajamas. Is that a buffalo in your shirt? Yeah? Catalina Island tricked the wine mixer. So they're going to call me out on I mean, I want to call you out. Your word is no better than mine. It's not like you have a crystal ball, you bonehead. Do you have Biff's Almanac where you're right and I'm wrong? I don't think so. I'm just telling you why I think what I think. But you just said the matchups show you that when they played those better teams. Can I give you the scores of these games you speak of? And I want to tell you when these games were But how do my facts lose to your just assumption here? Based on the scores were close, but they still lost because you have a crystal ball? Like I said, are you a genie of sorts? Week one of the NFL Brazil that feels like an eternity ago. Remember that game? Yeah? I do. We were talking about all the Brazilian booties and remember there was the rumor like could they wear green in Brazil? That would that felt like ten years ago. They lost thirty four twenty nine in a like a really back and forth Week one game against the Eagles that you can't even count that three months later. That's like, that's a different team that that's starting right cross that change. What's the update on Hurtz by the way, I don't know. I'll look it up a second, but do you know I want to tell a concussion protocol? Yeah, it still happened. Okay, So if you're gonna tell me yeah, he's not playing. Yeah, Green Bay, you know they would have the edge. Now, no question, it's a long season change. I get all that that game was a two point game until a field goal iis did at the end and again, you know, and that was But hold on, rich as we go through this, and it's fun to look back and see if they've improved, if you think there would be a different outcome. I do appreciate that. You know, there's a reason that we're talking about this. People are sleeping on them. I think they're because they're not. They haven't proven yet that they could beat that caliber of team. Yeah, they could romp of Saints thirty four to nothing. So they lose Week one in Brazil. Odd game, you're traveling around the world. Now let's go to week four. They lose to the Vikings by two in September. Again, this is like Vikings got any less though they're on front of the two. But you know what, though, it's like you're a big baseball fan, it's like me talking about a Yankees game in April or may come postseason. It's like, dude, that was a different squad, that was a different team. Could the Packers win. I'm not hating on the Packers. I think there are really exciting things. They've lost close games to everyone in this division. That's a they lost to the Lions twice, but you know what, Yeah, but no, when they lost to the Lions last a couple weeks ago, you know what, that score was thirty four thirty one and it was fantastic and it was in Detroit. Could they win? Yeah, but they didn't. Does Vegas say something different? Yeah, so I'm probably wrong, but the proof is here and the wins and losses. If you ask me, I think I like the Packers. Let's make it clear. And that's the reason we're talking about them. People are sleeping on them. They could beat all of these teams any given day. I agree with that, but they haven't. I also think Tyson Fury could beat Alexander Usik maybe on another day, but he didn't. So your thoughts other things were sleeping on? I thought of a few bands. I thought of a few fighters. So maybe there's women, Maybe there's shows. I told you Dexter original Sin. Who are the Packers of your life? Who else are we sleeping that's a good question. Yeah, anything else there? It's a brand? Can I give you a brand before we talk about rapid radios. Don't sleep on rapid radios. Don't sleep on them. You go to Target with you're wifey, right, You go in there for one thing and then you end up with a five hundred dollars bill. You ever see the brand good Fellow at Target? I think people are sleeping on it. It's a good BRANDT discount store, good brand. Do you know how many people are like, yeah, what did you get that? And I'm like, don't worry about it. You know, I said, don't worry about it because I don't want to tell we got it at Target. Goodfellow is a great clothing brand, and everybody sleeps on it because no one wants to admit that they got their clothes at Target. It's a really good brand. I like it a lot, Okay, I just don't like telling people when I buy clothes at Costco. That's still so. But I think it's like such a good quality seasonal. I'm not saying it is made from the greatest materials in all the land, but I really feel like, hey, if you need some shorts, you want to go to Lucky Store, pay one hundred dollars for a pair of shorts, go to the mall and overpay, or go to Target because you need shorts and you paid it at thirty bucks. You know what? Whatever? So what else are we sleeping on besides the nude dexter and the Green Bay Packers? What life is it? A new good looking woman on the scene? Is it a show? Is it a team? Is it the packers? I agree, we're sleep from the packers, who are the packers of your life? We'll take your feedback next having fun Christmas? Eve Covino and rich In for the Great Dan Pack.

That's really all I want for Chris Moist because I got everything else. So I have to go to the malta day for what? Why who watches there yesterday? You weirdo? Why two people watch because he's such a people person. No, first of all, I need to see people. You were just there yesterday late last night. Started assessing my kid's presence, and anyone with multiple kids has been here. It's lopsided. I assessed everything, and I'm like, ooh, lucky they're getting anything. My daughter has significantly more than my son in the current moment. Maybe she deserves more. Rich I have to I'm like, so now I have to just go buy stuff because listen, you have multiple kids, mom and dad and Santa. You can't have a lopsided Christmas if you have two little kids. She's been around longer.
It's smart though, it's a smart move.
She's got longevity, is it in the long run? Trust me, I have a spoil a teenager. I don't know. I'm just saying it to be grateful. It sounds ridiculous, but it could be small gifts from Target, Walmart, anything. They just they can't have an uneven number of things under the trade kids. God bless kids.
But one of the great things about being a kid is you don't have to deal with social graces like looking a gift to us in the mouth. They don't even know what that means. They're going to do the math on this. You need to even out the ledger. True, does my sister have more gifts than me?
And the size too? True? I know that's ridiculous. My daughters, if she has one big gift, I'm just talking about in size, not even a price like in size. My son needs a big gift in size. If you have two kids around the same age, you know what a pain of the ass they are. So yeah, I have to I have to run to the mall after the toy. Those are my favorite. As we get back to things that we slept on, like the Green Bay packers, yeah, or that we're sleeping on. Still we're not giving enough credit to Can I throw a toy out there that I think we all slept on. That was awesome. Say, before we get into the Best Christmas Sports Toys and our Tyson Interview third hour, we caught up with Mike Tyson. We want you guys to hear it. We caught up with him last week. It was a lot of fun. You're gonna hear the great, the real Mike Dythan on this show in about an hour and a half or so, So stick around for that perfect But you don't need to spend a lot of money. Rich A toy that we all had. I think we all had that I thought was a great toy that costs maybe three bucks, but you still had to beg your parents to buy it for you. Please. That disc gun you would buy at the pharmacy, that's a good one. That plastic gun that shot discs, you know what I'm talking about, Not those little yellow pellets, not a cap gun. They shot little discs. I was convinced that different colors when different speeds. But I think that was a rumor. Well it's because you were a bonehead, but it's possible. Yeah, that was an underrated toy. Buy your son something cheap, buy him some shrinky dinks by him, saying he doesn't need anything extravagantly. He's a nose picking four. So the Packers now in the same breath when I said, I look at a fighter, and I see who they beat and who they lost to. If they lost to a legend, if their losses are Bernard Hopkins and Roy Jones Junior and Joel Kalazagi and their legendary names, it doesn't mean that I think they suck. They beat everybody else, they just weren't able to beat those great dudes. And then I'll look, well, they went the distance, though, so they still put up a good fight. It doesn't mean I think they suck. It just means to me that they were really good, just not good enough to edge out those dudes who had that intangible that made him a little better. And so far, the Packers haven't proven that they could beat the Vikings, that they could beat the Lions, that they could beat the Eagles. So that's the only thing I'm saying against them. Otherwise, I agree, I fell up there with the better teams. I follow what you're saying. I think I think the Packers could could beat anyone. I don't know if I could say the same, but I don't know if I could say the same, if you want to jump to the AFC for a second. Going into the Chargers game, do they chase still? I don't know what they will next year, for sure, tell you you know what, I hope they win just because your point stinks. No, dude, I'm not. I'm not counting them out. We're bringing this up because we think we're sleeping on it. I think we are because they've played close games and one bounce goes one way or the other. The Packers could be winning this division. It's just they're two games out. They lost close games to everyone in the division. I don't think you can say the same about the Denver Broncos necessarily. I think they're like eight to zero against beat like teams they should beat. And all the teams that are over five hundred they have lost to, I think all of them except one, So that I think there's more proof in the putting of a stat like that Figgie pudding pudding. But I don't know, man, I'm not sleeping on Green Bay anymore. I haven't had the whole season. No one talks more football than you. You've ever brought a mind, and I talked to you every day. I think I've ever heard about the packers on this shit. You're the biggest culprit of it, sent here every day you're sitting here. We get you said the lobby picking your belly button lint. I mean, he's got a lot of it. So the point in bringing this up is they deserve the props now, especially after that beating they gave the Saints last night. So can I give you two other things that come to mind? And I'll leave the other answers for you. Fox Sports Radio Nation, let's get involvedles, chop it up? What are other things we sleep on? I'm a rock host. That was my career path. That's how I ended up with this bonehead, I mean co host of mine, Rich Davis. Yeah, Covinos all like the rock channels that no one listens to on serious XM. Man. Well, I am still on the rock channels. I'm on Turbo. I'm on Ozzie's Boneyard on serious XM. Right, I'm on Turbo every night. What do they call that? Divorced Dad Rock? It is angry divorced Dad Rock. It's funny because it's true. If you're like forty something and you like Papa Roach, She'll love Covino. Yeah, kiddos call it butt rock. Hey, you want some limp biscuit, here's a guy, some angry system of a down Covino's in the house. So Chevelle is one of those bands. Yeah, Chevelle is one of those bands that people sleep on. They're legitimate. They rock just as hard as anybody. They might not have that flare, they might not have that superstar look about them, very unassuming, but they have songs for days. You go to a Chevelle show, You're like, I know this song. They got like ten songs deep and they're great, and yet they're just Chevelle. And I say that, uh, respectfully. I say that with love, with Jordan love, with Darlene Love. I say that with love that's not to undermine them by any means that has to lift them up and give them props. I think people sleep on how good they are. People forget Chavelle is one of those bands right up there with the best of them in the dad rock genre, divorced dad rock genre and fighters. I'm gonna throw this guy, Richard Torres out there. No one talks about him. I'm talking about him Richard Torres Junior. He's a Vato local young guy. I think he's like twenty five years old. He's only fourteen or no, but dude is knocking everybody out. Richard Torres Junior. People are like, I want to see Jake Pole fight a real boxer. I want to see Richard Torres knock his ass out. No one knows who that is. That's how he'll know, so he'll never fight Jake Paul. But I don't know about that. I think you're again. The point is you're sleeping on him.
Now.
People that know, No, let's go to your phone calls. What are we sleeping on? Sports? Entertainment? Music? What are you up on? They're like, why is no one else? Charlie in Florida? What's going on? Cavin? No on Wretch? And for Dan Patrick, what's up?
Boys? Actually, the first time I heard you was yesterday Nice and then Cavino. I obviously I enjoyed the show, which is why I'm calling in. But I to him from Queens and I moved. When I moved to Tampa fifteen years ago, I was living in Massapequa Park, but I went to Saint frank This Prep and Bayside, So I don't know. We might know each other.
Maybe Covino's a Jersey go I'm rich. I'm more of the New York ive Bell Boulevard. That White Castle, that white Castle over there. I know you've been there, So what's up, man, I used to work at New York It's rich.
Listen to me. That white Castle. Me and my friends have we've uprooted that, that's off of its foundation right now. I've literally ordered fifty dollars worth of white Castle, piss drunk at two in the morning, and my friends and I we've finished it, definitely, and we've destroyed that white Castle. And I'm actually going home. My dad passed away seven years ago and I haven't found the strength to go home since then. But I actually am going home next week for the first time in seven years. So I'm sure it's gonna look a lot different than it did seven years ago.
Queens, nice man Wilson, have a good trip home. What what's your thought?
Man?
What are we sleeping on? Real quick?
So what's that?
What are we sleeping on?
The once? To pick the freaking mess over the Yankees? That is mind boggling.
It is it's mind boggling. Thanks sleeping on. It's mind boggling to people like you and Covino. They can't believe someone would choose someone over the Yankees, Andrew and Rhode Island. What's up, Andrew? And thanks for the call? Men? Hey bo, what's up man? Oh Hey, how'd you do it?
Guy?
What's up?
Yeah? I would say for me, I would say one of the biggest things that you know, we we can go back at time, is you know how a lot of people just kind of just underrated Steph Curry to where he was at that time in his development, and you know, all those ankle injuries, and how a lot of people didn't think that he would have became what he became. And now look at him and now the league is clinging onto him. Lebron kd all these older guys are about to be out the league and it's gonna be very interesting going forward.
I agree. I think people did sleep on Steph curR early on. I mean, listen, teams he wanted to play for passed on him one more quickie than we gotta go. Travis in California? What's up, Travis? Travis? What's up? Traviy Hey, you.
Don't want Rich. One thing you can do with your daughter. You can do like my grandma used to do with me, Like put me in the side room and be like, listen, I got you more presence than your cousins. Don't tell them, but here you go.
Maybe I'll do that. If I don't have time to go to wal Mart, Target or anything, I'll slip you a few bucks, honey, a strawberry candy. Honey, you got more than your brother. I want to put them aside for you.
Man.

We have a bonus pot too, called over Promised, and we're going to highlight some of that when we talk about the best Christmas sports toys growing up and best R rated Christmas movies and stick around Cuz. In about an hour plus, Mike Tyson on the show The Mike Tyson, we get his take on Fury and Usick. But Mike Tyson, if you missed it, will be on the show and Rich to wrap up the packers. It's a good place to be. I really think that you want people to sleep on you, you know. I feel like we're a show that people slept on. We've been doing this twenty years, you know. I feel like that's when that's when you win, because no one really took you that serious. Alexander Usik, dude, he's been knocking people out his whole career. Now he's the top dog in the heavyweight division. Nowhi, people slept on him sometimes talking Fury, everyone was talking Wilder, everyone's talking Joshuay, No one's talking Usick. Who's the best of them all, Alexander Usik. So that might be the Packers when all said and done, might be them. Maybe you don't want to, you know, come out the gate all hot. Maybe you want maybe you want to more than slow burn and listen. It happened last year. The Packers clicked in the second half and the forty nine Ers just got a couple of lucky breaks here and there. Keep them on. The forty nine Ers, who I think should have won the Super Bowl. They shouldn't have won two playoff games. They should have lost to the Lions some bad calls by Dan Campbell, and the week before that they got very lucky against the Green Bay Packers. So if anything, I'm a Niners fan, I'll tell you Green Bay. I thought they were gonna pick up where they left off last year, which is why a lot of people in the industry sports, the Collins of the world and other people. That's why Jordan Love got paid, That's why you know, the big names like the Dan Patricks, the Collins, the Stepneys, and that's why everyone was so high on the Packers going into this year and then because the lines picked up where they left off and Minnesota ated nowhere. There were people at this company. We have a little sheet in the studio where people made predictions preseason. There were some people that picked the Vikings to be one of the worst in the league. They surprised everyone. I think by the Vikings surprising everyone, it took away from the Packers. Can I tell you a movie that I saw recently that I'm like, people slept on this, dude. I'm about to say something bold. I got a Steven A. I got a Rob Parker hot take right now, fool gayzy. Seriously, this is a Rob Parker take for sure. And I say that respectfully because I love him. You can tell what you can tell me. Brownie's better than Lebron. What do you know, No, dude, I happened to watch the movie Troy recently with Brad Pitt. Good movie, dude, It's so good, really goody. I feel like I enjoyed it better than Gladiator. Everyone's like Gladiator, Man, Gladiator, Glad and don't get a twisted love Gladiator. I watched Troy recently. I remember I watched it when it came out. I'm like, yeah, whatever, it's not Gladiator, dude. I watched it recently and Jay Stude just said, great movie, dude. No one talks about that.
Yeah, no one talks about it.
No one talks about it. Slept on it. Let me tell you something so good. I don't think i've ever seen it. See I've seen Gladiator plenty of times. See and like certain things getting speaking of the Packers, who you're saying people are sleeping on their path once in the playoffs, because you gotta keep in mind, there's going to be a Rams, maybe Seahawks, but likely a RAMS team, and I think the Bucks will sneak in over the Falcons. I don't think those teams beat anyone from the NFC North. So I think you're looking at four teams, and that's three NFC North teams Lions, Packers, Vikings, oh My, and the Eagles. And then from that point on, I think all four of those teams. If you think you have an instinct, I think you're wrong. I think those four teams anyone could come out of the NFC. We got more next C and R in for Dan Patrick
