You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.
I'm not bringing this up just because I'm a Niners fan, but I feel as though the rest of the NFC should be rooting terribly hard for the Bills this Sunday up in Buffalo. And I say this because sometimes you want to shut the door on someone. And I know it looks like the Lions the conference to lose. It really is one Lions, Eagles, then a little behind that, you'd say, maybe Vikings, Packers, and then there's a big drop off. I don't really believe it anyone. Maybe the Falcons if they get hot again. But it really is like Lions, Eagles, Vikings and Packers. If one of those teams turns it on, and then after that Vikings at nine and two, I'm really downplaying them. I very well might be, but the Niners at five and six are only one game behind the I don't believe in at all Arizona Cardinals, who I think they're going to get stomped by Minnesota this weekend. In fact, I think Seattle might lose to the Jets this weekend.
That's also what you said right before the Cardinals beat your Niners.
I don't want you to mention that again, But Danny, I think that, honestly, NFCA team should be hoping that the bill shut down the Niners because I think the Niners. Yeah, but you come from this belief and standpoint that they're going to turn it on or something.
Iybody showing you ability to turn it on at all.
Yeah, I think everybody's coming from that standpoint. You know, I preft because they've out yardaged their opponents more than anyone else in the NFL, and they lost three games in the last minute. They also and they're what five and six last in the NFC West. They got stopped battling injuries all season. They got stomped by the Packers when they were missing like five Pro Bowlers.
Yeah.
That's the problem though, is that they can't stay healthy right now, and health is key when you're down the stretch in December in the NFL, bro health as well agreed. I'm just saying, if you're an NFC fan, you want the Niners out because I'll give you, like a Colin Calhert type analogy, the forty nine ers, Stars, Stars and Stars. Forty nine ers have Stars Dinner Stars, forty nine ers are like chucole pudding pie.
Okay, Jimmy, you let them, You let them on the table. They may go all the way. It's a favorite. You put that truckle putting pie on the table tonight. It's the easiest deserve to make and it goes first. You let the forty nine ers in the playoffs and they get healthy, they could do damage. If you're an NFC fan, you should want the Rams last year, you should want Buffalo, or they're just not that good this year. And that's what I'm getting. I mean, but when you're saying no big tread one and three in the division, that is bad math. Yeah, we've often given the the analogy of this. When you watched the Mike Tyson Douglas fight, right, he was the biggest favorite of all time, was at forty two to one. Yeah, Yeah, we had this belief, this delusion that Mike Tyson was unbeatable, invincible, kind of how Rich feels about his forty nine ers.
But truthfully, he.
Didn't have it that night and he lost the entire fight. Yeah, he had one moment where he knocked Douglas down, But if you watch that fight back, this whoof disass the whole fight.
I know you're saying. The perspective is.
We had this belief that, Nah, he's still gonna come back. Ah, he's Tyson, he's gonna come back, He's gonna win this fight. No, he didn't. And that's your Niners this year. From our perspective, you have this delusion that they're still good or something this season.
I mean, they haven't played really good at all.
That analogy, sadly is awesome because well, the forty nine ers are Mike Tyson against Buster Douglas for a lot of people, because you're thinking, well, no, they can't. Really, we've been waiting for them to turn it around. They'll turn it around, dude, you're already eleven games. We're already in week thirteen. But it's getting late early.
Yeah, you and kidding and profet.
I'm just a sad optimist here because I think the division is so bad that if the Niners do somehow find the way to strap together some wins here, that division is so mediocre.
Your problem is that the forty nine Ers are playing a first place schedule while the Arizona Cardinals are playing a fourth You have to play the Lions, the Bills and the Dolphins, where like, meanwhile, the Cardinals are gonna have another game against the Seahawks and then they play the Panthers and the Patriots.
I think the map is against you no matter how you slice it.
Rich is a fan of the forty nine ers. I'm not hating on them by any means. I enjoy watching the forty nine ers. I think you're judging them based on their potential and where they should be playing. Yeah, the math ape math, as Profet pointed out, and their schedule is way tougher down the stretch. It's just if you let the forty nine ers in. I just think the NFC fan bases should say Buffalo, well put them out of their misery this Sunday night, because if the forty nine ers find a way to beat the Buffalo Bills, maybe that's the little confidence boost they need. I think you're big dreaming, bro hold On. I think the Bills are gonna stock. I think they are gonna stock. Well, hold On, forty nine ers have one of them still. McCaffrey's eventually going to continue to get better, and you know now that he's healthy, or it's just just like it was a paces night. It's just not their year. Forty nine Ers have still a solid run offense, better than the Bills.
Right.
Trent Williams still a question mark.
Some are saying he's having a hard time walking, let alone getting on the NFL field. But Danny g hit me over the little meme, little text. This Sunday night football in Buffalo. It's gonna be like four degrees snowy, windy, and gross, which could end up being just run the ball, run the ball, run the ball, and that could favor Kyle Shanahan and the forty nine ers.
I know I'm just big dreaming. Let me big.
Dream of the Bills better in bad conditions? Rich how you feel about moving in it? How you feel about Moody kicking in thirty mile per hour wins?
How do you feel about getting disinvited for dessert tonight?
I ask your question, though, but I think the rest of the NFC is sort of counting the forty nine ers out. You're the only guy or real fans of the forty nine ers. I still believe in that they have a shot. Well as I'll blame you for that. Kyle Shanahan said, we put ourselves in a tough bind. You think profet's right, one to three in the division. And that's the worst part because those three losses were the three winnable games. If you look at the forty nine ers six losses, I'm not some delusional guy that's like the Niners are like so good. No, they got stomped by a couple good teams, one without their quarterback.
But those three losses.
Within the last minute of the game against three division opponents stealed their fate. The forty nine Ers are not playing good football, but they could very well be. I know that sounds ridiculous. They could very well be eight and three and not five and six if they finished three games. They had every opportunity to finish. And that's football for you. That rubber bands a bit in the next season. But I only bring up the division thing because as close as this division will be, you will probably have some even in the best case scenario, you'll have like very close equal wrecords between either the forty nine Ers and either the Seahawks or the Cardinals. Then tie breakers will no division tiebreaker just ends up killing it. And you only have one division game left, which is against the Cardinals, which, again, if everything goes right, for you, that could be for the division and a winner get in between Cardinals and forty nine ers. Well, the backup rich and on the positive roast beat the Bills.
That's where the wins on the table.
They have to turn it around against the Bills. So your phone calls, should the NFC be scared or be rooting for the Bills to just put them out of their misery?
Well, because I think that all right.
If you were have looked at asking, if you were to look at the odds in Vegas of all the Super Bowl team and odds, I think the long shot bet that might be appealing would be I wouldn't know what it is now, but the Niners who are under five hundred are the team that if they turned it around, that is a scary team with playoff experience. I think the NFC should be saying shut them down. Just a lot of ifs that aren't this season, you know what I mean, help health wins just not there. Let's go to Jeff in Rhode Island. Jeff, you're on Coveno rich In for Dan Patrick.
It's somebuddy.
Hey Jeff, Hey guys, I'm a Niners fan out here in Rhode Island, and I'm not delusional.
This team has no shot of I mean, all we're banking on is we're playing in a bad division, and like you guys just said, the tiebreak is what's going to kill us. I mean, I see it's just getting blown out this week. And then I mean we've got Detroit coming up. I mean, in this team, even if they were a lookout and get in our help, our special teams, our defense.
I mean we can.
We've been talking about it. What happens What happened to the explosives? What happened to her playmaking abilities? The excitement, the explosiveness hasn't been there the entire season. It's all of a sudden going to be there against Buffalo in bad conditions. Let me ask Jeff, Jeff and Rodelan, you're a Niners fan like I am, what happened to the explosivess? And does Deebo Samuel feel like he's lacking some type of leadership or vibe on the field like what happened to Debo?
Absolutely, first of off, that they can't get any openings, there's no space on that offense, and just that that played last week with Deebo, that little trick play that they threw the scream to.
Normally he would take that to the house and he got take him down.
So I mean, and as far.
As being a captain, I wish he had the fire of a George Kittle or Fred Waner or a Jwon Jennings because I assume Deebo is going to be gone this year as well after this year.
I mean, I think we've.
You're right, you know, it could very well be the case.
But to answer the question, I don't think anyone's scared, you know, player for player, Yeah, you got a lot of great players, But as far as the way your team's playing, I don't think anyone's scared of the forty nights I've heard I've heard this season that's no hate at all.
I like one, if they were going to turn it on, I would have expected them to turn a little bit earlier, like the Eagles dead. The Eagles were a very uneven team, but there was this point late until October where all of a sudden they looked like a completely different team. And now we're talking about them as being one of the two best teams in the NFC.
Yeah, listen, I uh, the forty nine ers feel to me like, uh, Rocky Balboa and Rocky three and when he lost his eye of the tiger. Yeah, where's the fire, d bo, where's the I got like I got like a puffy hair dude, But I don't have the I don't have the eye to tag. Absolutely no, like what happened to a team that Listen, the forty nine Ers entered this year. It's the last I'll harp on on my team because there's a lot of other other NFL to get to. But Rocky three is also when mister T was hitting on Adrian Remember that kid with the real man?
Yeah, I don't appreciate that, mister T. Absolutely no.
I the forty nine ers entering the season, there was such a cocky vibe and I'll admit it by me and other Niners fans.
Remember the whole stat of.
They were not underdogs in any game this year, the forty nine Ers, when they released the schedule preliminary the preliminary look of the schedule is the Niners were favored in seventeen of seventeen games that went well. You know what I always thought about when you talked about lack of leadership this season with you're forty nine ers, You ever get in a situation in your relationship right where things aren't getting done because you're just relying on the other person to do it. But when it's just you, it gets done. Meaning you're just living your life and throughout the week the dishes are adding up in the sink. Why are they adding up in the sink because you're counting on your wife or your partner whoever, to put him in the dishwash. She's counting on you to she's counting on you to do it right. But when she's not around, it's always done because you're not relying on anybody else.
I feel like there's so many.
Stars, so many stars and stars and stars and big players in big eagles on your forty nine ers, that everyone's counting on the other person to take.
That leadership role, Like who's gonna s happen up by?
Like Deebo's like, well, I'm not the only leader here, what about Kittle? Kittle's like me, what about the quarterback? And Party's like me, I'm just prop party? What about Bo's son? Like well what about this guy? They're like that about the spider Man's pointing at each other? Yeah, they're all pointing at each other, and no one's putting a dish anyway. No one's taking that leadership role the way they should be because of that, and what happened to that defense that was feared is a defensive coordinator's fault. Is Kyle Shanahan having a hard time finishing he? I mean, you can't say he's the problem, right, I mean he's one of the most sought after coaches.
But I don't know.
Shake up on the defensive end in San fran next year, we shall see. Let's go to Keto, We'll take his call. We'll we'll move along Keto in Alabama?
What's up?
Man? Hey, buddy, what's up?
Boys?
How are you doing this early morning?
Good man?
What's on your mind?
Keto?
Keto five?
Oh?
I know, hey, I was looking at uh this point spread of the Giants Cowboys game. Man that that's three and a half. Just teasing me, man, I don't know. Can the Giants do anything offensively? I just I don't know, man.
Well, do we have an update on is it? It's a lot? Tommy Cutlets?
Oh?
He is he out?
Cutlets is out with my side not lock lock. I'm pretty sure the forearm. It's it was too much a signaling for Tommy, you gotta get out.
Yeah, yeah.
Drew Locke spent most of the time with the first getting those first team reps and uh and of course the cutlets didn't travel with the team.
It should have been his gig anyway, So all right, well he has to step up today. He's worrying about Thanksgiving charcuterie boards. Hey, let me ask you this though, based on that Giants Dallas game, and I'm with you, Keto, Dallas by three and a half, by a point minus two and a half, you're wagering a little more. But Dallas by two and a half, that seems like a Thanksgiving present, a mere little early.
Black Friday sale, if you ask me.
But if you're a Dallas Cowboys fan, ask yourself this and we'll take a little feedback on this as well. Eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox in for the great Dan Patrick. If you're a Cowboys fan at this juncture, what do you want? There are cowboys. There's two groups of Cowboys fans that I seem to interact with. Half of them are like, I think we could run the table and go ten and seven or nine and eight and then make this thing happen. And then there's other Cowboy fans that are saying four and seven, let's lose, let's revamp, get rid of McCarthy, Jerry Jones, got to get some wayvos and make the right moves.
If you're a Cowboys fan, which direction.
Do you want to go?
Do you belie? Leave that there's hope? Here you went today? You're five and seven.
The Cowboys schedule coming up, Bengals, Panthers, Bucks, Eagles.
I don't know.
I mean, lose to everything except maybe what was that middle one that said the Bengals. I mean that's the wind.
So your thoughts, Cowboys fans, what do you want? We'll take your feedback next giving on rich and for Dan Patrick right here on Fox Sports Radio. And now, I think we talk about the Doyers, the Dodgers. A lot of people, even our own Rob Parker, I believe, was saying yesterday they're the new evil Empire.
And I do believe that.
I think what we're seeing here is the Dodgers buying championships.
I do feel that way. Do you hear this coming from a Yankees fan?
Yeah?
I do feel that way.
Wow.
Look let's think about what happened this past week. They signed Snell one hundred and eighty two million, five years. He's thirty one years old, it'll be thirty six by the end of that contract.
You add him to an already potent.
Lineup, potent team, championship team, pitching staff. They're gonna get that other Japanese dude they're trying to get. They're still in the mix for Soto, Like give me, I don't forget Otani will pitch. Yeah, So we also talked about yeah, yeah, well here's the difference, he said, coming from a Yankees fan. But I'm gonna tell you what I think the difference is. And this is no hate.
I'm not a Dodgers hater, not at all.
I live here in LA. I want to read a tweet that goes along with this whole thought. Say Ben Verlander, Ben Verlander, who the brother of Justin Verlander, who's a great broadcaster at MLB Network. Ben Verlander. My favorite thing about him is he had one preseason one spring training at bat against his brother back in the day.
And hit a home run. That's a cool moment.
But Ben Verlander put on social media, are people really that bothered by the snaw signing. Baseball is by far the sport with the most parody in the US. Haven't had a repeat winner since two thousand. Your Yankees could be No seems people are upset before they have a reason to be. Don't be mad at the Dodgers. Be mad at your team for being cheap. And I agree with that too. So I'm not mad at the Dodgers, Danny G. I'm really not. I'm not at all. I'm a Yankees fan. I'm not mad at Rich is mad. But I'm confused if not a question any team for spending money. But I will say this, here's the difference between the Yankees when they were the Evil Empire and the Dodgers, who are now the evil Empire. The Yankees when they went on that run, which was magical, by the way, and it gave me tons of false confidence that I carry till this day.
Just by being a fan.
Yeah, just by being a fan, I felt like a winner. Brought me to Fox Sports Radio all these years later, hmm. Gave me something to cheer for. It did change my life and outlook in a lot of ways. The Yankees built around their homegrown talent, which led them to championships, and it was always that that false narrative of the Yankees buy championships. Really did they buy Derek Jeter? Did they buy Andy Pettitt? Did they buy Mo Rivera? Did they buy Jorge Posada? Did they buy Alfonso Soriano? Did they buy all these These are homegrown people that were talking about Robberie. They know they had the money to keep them. No, they built around them. Though they built around them. The Dodgers are just getting whoever they want because they can. That's the difference. Am I mad at it?
No?
But there is a difference.
So when you say they're the new evil Empire, they are really what people were accusing the Yankees of being. The Yankees were flooded with homegrown talent, flooded with it.
The Dodgers got a few people.
Let me ask you, Coveno, Then why are the Dodgers always ranked in the top three as far as farm systems go.
They're great and maybe they have a lot of great talent. One of their stars here, Will Smith, Danny let Real's a star. He's one of their stars.
Star.
He had a few moments in the cornerstone of the team. Andy has lux Miller, the Stars. What did the What did the Dodgers do at the trade deadline? They got flirty and edmund by using assets they had from the farm.
Okay, that's there, and that changed their posts.
You don't see the difference of building around the homegrown Core four and other Yankee homegrown talent. There's no rule that says you have to be saying there's a new rule. I'm saying there's a don't I don't understand that. This is the difference between the old evil Empire and they're the new evil Empire.
The Dodgers really all are.
The thing is they're not that hateable, which is why I'm saying we gotta start hating on them.
We gotta start hating on the Dodgers.
Okay, so the bottom barrel MLB team, do they have all homegrown talent?
No, they gotta spend money. There has to be there has to be obviously a salary floor, meaning you can't just buy a team and use that as an investment. You have to buy a team and be willing to compete, be willing to spend money. So the teams that aren't spending money, I agree with Ben Verlander all the way right, But I also agree that the Dodgers are really overboard with like, come on, it's not even fair at this point. I'm not hating on them. I'm just saying we gotta find reasons to hate them.
I feel like they're smart with contracts. People make the jokes about all the deferred money, but that's smart business, all right.
There's two questions at hand here. I love when you guys go out it.
This is fun. You're your feedback by the way, at eight seven to seven nine nine on Fox. There's two layers here. Layer one, do you see a difference between the nineteen nineties Yankees evil empires? If you're saying they're the new evil empire, compare them to the old one. Well, let me finish the damn statement the nineties Yankees versus the twenty twenties Dodgers. And I hate to have Covinos back on this as a Mets fan, but the Yankees were just able to keep their homegrown stars. So when Jeter, Soriano, Pisada, Mo Rivera, when those contracts were up, those players opted to stay with the Yankees. You look at the Dodgers lineup that just won the World Series. Freddie Freeman not homegrown, Mookie Betts not homegrown, sho hal Tani not homegrown, Yamamoto not homegrown. Now, Blake Snell not homegrown. The Stars you could say will Smith and Lux and that's cute and all, but that's really cool. Don't give me your seven eight nine in lineup and say you're your team's homegrown.
You're gonna have a few.
But I don't blame it because I'm a Mets fan. I want Juan Soto. But just let's call a spade a spade. That's that's all I'm saying. I'm not mad at it. That's just how the god is. If I were, if I were Major League Baseball, if I was a star player, I'd want to go play for the Dodgers in sunny California.
I think I think I have to like throw in something as far as they hate. I don't personally hate the Dodgers, by I know plenty of people who do. Because you bring up the deferred thing. The problem is with shohe Atani, that's like where where else?
What other?
Uh?
You know, the organization can really get away with that, with this idea of deferred and that is where the inherent power of something like a New York or in La comes in versus a lot of other places in the rest of the country. At the end of the day, I I mean, I don't whatever. I I'm mostly on Ben Verlanders's side. You suck because you don't spend money. We'll spend money. You bought this team not as a not as some vanity thing, but actually it's like you know, there's plenty of fans who see how much money the Dodgers are thrown around, and that is a problem no matter.
What they we We talked about this on our afternoon show a couple of days ago. They should be adding potential owners in all sports because we realize that sports, much like real estate, there's certain things in life you can invest in and you're gonna get great returns. Why do you think celebrities and all these big time big rollers want to invest in sports teams because it's clear the investment is a no lose if you want to buy a franchise and you're a billionaire. They need to be convincing that I want to compete. This is not just a paper investment for me. I want to win. I'm not just saying because I'm a Mets fan, but Steve Cohen is the ideal owner. Fan billionaire wants to win. Mark Cuban wants to fan billionaire wants to win. You have to understand, these are the very expensive toys. They're not your trust fund. They're now, They're not in investments so you can make a profit off of the gate.
They are here for you. They are they're lost leaders.
That's what I'm saying, dude. There's there's thirty or thirty two spots in all sports now to be an owner. Can I make a point to.
If you're one of those thirty people are groups, you better be able to win it.
This is not sour grapes at all. The Dodgers beat the Yankees in the World Series. Okay, I'm a Yankees fan, fair fine, but this is really starting to feel with the Blake Snell thing, with the potential other accu uh acquisitions.
It is every big name that comes out of the market they get.
It's starting to feel like now the Dodgers are buying a.
Championship has starting pitchers in the In the World Series, they use a bullpen.
This is really what again the Yankees were being accused of the Yankees had Bernie Williams, they had all these you know, homegrown people. The Dodgers do not have that. So to compare them to even come up with a new name, because the Yankees were the evil Empire, this is something else I thought.
I thought it was sour grapes when people talked like this about the Yankees, and it still feels that way.
There's a different years later difference. There's a huge difference.
No, there's not.
There is just a tosalized hating of Yankees. There's a called those damn Yankees.
But the Dodgers are famously known for their farm system. To say that they don't grow their own talent, well then they're gonna get other players because they're not playing. But they're not playing, all right, so everybody can grow all right again.
Ernie Williams, Derek Jeter, Robinson Cano, Marianna Rivera, Andy.
Pettitt, these are all. Clay Kirshaw the Dodgers pitch. He didn't even play.
I'm not talking necessarily.
Want everyone who was part of the championship team this year was purchased and that's all they're doing again. Yeah, will Smith had a few moments, no doubt, but there is a major difference. I'm not mad at it, but let's be honest about it. Let's be honest about it. And if you want to compete against the Dodgers who are buying whoever they want, you gotta be a Mets fan. You gotta be a Giants fan, of Red Sox fan, a Yankees fan. Otherwise you're not gonna, which is why these smaller market teams have to spend money. They have to spend money to compete. When you see a young star on a team and Danny and Kavino, I see both your points, meaning if you have a good farm system and you use those pieces to get another player, that's part of what makes a great front office in a franchise. But let's say the Padres take it away from our teams. Do you look at Fernando Tattists Junior and Machado differently, meaning Tattists Junior was a guy that came up through the Padres versus Machado was a guy they just threw money out. Or do you say no, that equal footing. Do you look at the Mets and say, hey, Pete Alonso came up through the Mets organization versus if they go after Soto or when they got Lindor.
I think the Padres are a great example of you can buy if you want to say that players, and it still may not work out. There's a lot of other factors that go about and when the Dodgers would fall on their face in the past in the postseason, nobody was complaining about their spending.
Now suddenly it's a problem.
Because it doesn't it feel that way a little bit, it's not starting to.
There's a lot of other factors now. I think perception is absolutely something. Once again Blake Snell comes up. Everyone wonders, real last it was gonna land immediately with the Dodgers show Atani immediately with the Dodgers. It's just can't wrap up too many guys when you just keep vacuuming up over and over and over, because then at some point you're going to get that label, no matter if it's right or not, that you're buying a championship.
I think what put me over the top, Danny, and we'll take your feedback next at eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox will put me over the top because for a while I was like, hey, listen, the Dodgers are just doing what other teams do right same. But when Soto's name also popped up with the Dodgers, I'm.
Like, are you kidding?
Like, because then I'm thinking Freeman, oh Tani, Mookie.
Now, Sodo, like Jesus.
Mostly got this feeling with Yamamoto when that happened, It's like you just got Shoyo Tan, you need Yamamoto two.
Come on.
It's like you're throwing your hair. You're like, come on, Danny and brace.
Sodo also wants to win. He was the last one there on the railing watching the Dodgers celebrate.
He does you know what we got phone call, We got people on hold. We're gonna take all your feedback. Now, let's go old school. We do this every Thursday. Let's do it.
There's a certain.
Yea.
What we gonna do is go back.
Back into town.
Throwing it back for a Thursday. Old School went fifty hits. That's fifty after CNR give you the time capsule topic and we reminisce together.
All right again, you heard it. We do it every Thursday, our regular time. Like Andy said, two to four on the west, five to seven on the east, or just search Covino and Rich be a part of it. Wherever you stream your podcast, we appreciate it. In for DP, we go old school when fifty hits on the clock. But we ran late because we're debating about the Dodgers and Yankees, and you could still continue at Cobino and Rich. Last night used to be dean the biggest party night of the year, but as Rich established on our Patreon show, a lot of young people don't even go out.
They don't meet at the bar.
Why go out and overpay for drinks when you could just meet people on apps and website.
Clubs and bars.
Are struggling a little bit because the younger generation's like, I'm not gonna spend all that money, and they just you know, start swiping and they randomly meet up for booty. But I still think, based on some graps I saw too, that last night, Wednesday Night, the biggest party night of the year, is still blackout Wednesday. Yeah, one of the biggest drinking nights of the year. So even if you stayed home, people are like, yeah, tomorrow's Thanksgiving, I'm boozing watching the Penguin or whatever you did.
Honest up, did you see the Penguins? Oh yeah, you got white con here we go the Penguin.
Yeah, you know, life hasn't set up for guys like me and you got set up for guys like you and me.
They got a white con Get your hands done. How about that ending rich? You want me to tell you about it?
Oh, I'm up to episode six. I'm telling you.
Penguin and uh Man on the Inside with Ted Danson on Netflix.
Two great shows to check out. Anyway, We're gonna take over the city, you, me and you when.
You talk about going old school, especially he said on that Wednesday, that was the night where everyone did get a little uh tipsy, little tipsy, yeah, yeah, yeah. Go out to the local bar, the local haunt, catch up with some old friends, try to hook up with that that chick who used to be real hot in high school.
She's not as hot as she used to be, so now you have a chance. That's troke. But even if you didn't go out.
Last night, they still say it's the biggest drinking night of the year, and that probably carries into today and the rest of the weekend. Right it's a holiday weekend, fair enough, so that got us thinking old school. In fifty hits, some of those embarrassing moments it could be you could be a family member. Time to come clean and confess and tell us your story of when someone in your family or like I said, maybe it was you did something stupid, said something stupid, embarrassed themselves in an alcohol induced incident. Well I have I have two personal stories. I'll leave out names so that no one's humiliated. Maybe it was an embarrassing conflict, but let us know eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox those family fights and we're not even getting into like the life and political fights. I'm sure that are gonna happen at dinner tables tonight. Yeah, you know what, let's do a service and remind everybody. Don't even bring it up. But that's why alcohol is usually the reason why it still comes out.
You know these things. Don't bring it up.
That's why President Trump does. Stop it either way, don't say anything. So here, here's here's the two stories that comes to mind from me. I got two quickies and we'll take your feedback. Those drunk embarrassing family holiday moments. One of my exes her parents didn't talk to a whole side of the family, and I'm like, why not. Apparently they went to a holiday dinner and it was raining out and this is ridiculous. They knock on the front door and the rain like let us in, we're here, and like the guy that was hosting was buzzing. He opened the front door. He was like, I know, your feet wet in the house. Walk around to the back door, and like it's raining. The fact that this drunk guy made the family walk around to the other door.
They hadn't talked in twenty years.
That's it.
We're never coming here again. Well, you know what it is too. This is a coast guess made us walk to the back door because he is. And I was like, wait, so your parents don't talk to that whole side of your family because your uncle was drunk and he made people walk around the side.
Yep.
I'm not saying it's just an East Coast thing. I'm sure this happens all over, but especially in the East Coast. A lot of families don't use their front door. They'll use the side door. Yeah right, because you park your car or whatever you come through the back. But it's a holiday, this dud's but instead of just letting them in, it's raining out. And the other story is I wish I could say who it is because I really don't care, but I'll just say a family member's wife. Okay, a family member's wife. Okay, got really drunk. Oh yes, Juicy got really drunk uncharacteristically and started telling the family. You know, when I broke up with our family member in college. Okay, So now she's calling out your family member in public. So this is this is a call out. You know when we broke up. She was a relative of mine's wife. Okay, you know when we.
First started dating in college. You know, we broke up for a while.
And I think everyone's like, oh, yeah, you guys did break up for a while, she says out loud.
I don't know if he knows, but I slept with three of his roommates.
Oh my god, is that when you take an extra bite of stuffing past the past the candy Yams place. That's that's when I remember, you know, when you make eye contact with your wife and you're like, oh, his roommates. I'm thankful to the story right now, It's like, please, how embarrassing for your family member to be thrown under the bus like that in a drunken moment.
But I love that.
I remember later that night, pulling aside my sister and being like, you did she say what? I think I heard her say?
Oh yeah, our buddy anchor hit me up at Covino and Rich at Steve Cavino at Rich Davis, and he sent me a video. He's like, this happens a lot, right, there's always It's true. No family's immune to that. One person could be like an in law could be you know, one of the others. I call him the others. You know how everybody has like freaky family members. They show up on holiday time, they make an ass in themselves, they drink a little too much. Everybody has these stories. He sent me a video because cousin Dave passed down in the family room.
Yes, exactly.
No one's above it, guys. So that's why this is funny. He sent me a video of this little girl's Kinsinetta, and it's this girl's special moment. It's like a sweet sixteen Fox Sports Radio Nation, right, and you see this girl, she's about to do her little dance routine, and you see the drunk deal El Bonacchio stumbling in in the middle of the dance floor, and you're like, oh no, this is bad. And then he falls on her and collapses right there in the middle of the dance floor at her special birthday party. It's so embarrassed, sounds like sounds like a scene out of a Stars Born, remember, But I feel like I've seen something like that in my life, right when with Bob and LaBamba. Yeah, so you're drunken. Family moments that you can look back, can sort of laugh at. And there's one that comes to mind for me, the one I just described was a video I saw. I'll never forget it was. It was a wedding, right and again you know, people are boozing and schmoothing. It's a wedding, so fair game and this stuff happens.
That's life. I remember We're at.
A wedding, family wedding and one of the drunk cousins, drunk deos, one of my uncles, had just a little too much, and you know he's wearing his suit and cumber Bunny's part of the wedding. Dude sure enough, like ties around his head. You know, when it ties around the head, that's a great indicator that maybe he's boozing a little too Like remember Greg Olsen at a McCaffrey's.
Remember if you look like Greg Olsen at McCaffrey's wedding.
If you've never seen that, if you've never seen the photo or you don't know the reference, look it up.
His hair's all messed up. He looks like you want to invite him to your wedding, all right.
Right, he looks like he was partying a little too hard at their wedding anyway, drunk uncle has to tie around his head and by the end of the song that's pretty much all he was wearing because he started doing a strip tease and embarrassing the bride and groom. Like somebody stopped this guy because it was a slow motion nightmare where everyone's like just watching and he's trying. He's just trying to, I don't know, put on a show for everybody. But he drank too much and he's like, oh no. But looking back, you're laughing at those Oh he thought he was magic, Miguel, Yeah, you're oh my goodness, what is going on?
If you got an.
Embarrassing drunk family holiday stories? But it sounds funny, but the bride was like not happy. She probably mortified exactly.
Yeah, I have a brother in law who likes to tip it back. Any family function I've been at now with my wife, he's family. We know, like, Okay, this guy's going to invade your personal space. Oh he's gonna smell like post talker. Well, you're gonna get some of his spit.
On your lip.
We got married in Hawaii a couple of years back. In the dinner the night before the wedding, he shook things up. He walks in wasted, and this is the first time my family is meeting him. He gets right in their face. He's just causing a scene. The waitress comes over. We're near the bar, and he calls her over. He's like, give him in another one, and he says, and this guy's getting married tomorrow, give him a lap dance, right now, Give a lap dance, waitress. Yeah, so drunk, he thought we were at a strip club. He kept he kept harassing the waitress to give me lap dances. Finally he sees that nobody wants him there. He stumbles up. But we see him at the what's the desk called when you first walk into the reception area. Yeah, and he's talking to the girl and stuff. When we see him stumble out turns out he paid the bill for the whole dinner before he left. Oh yes, if you're gonna be a drunk buffoon, pay the bill in a drunken stupor. He paid the bill before he left.
So it's a drunken kindness. I like how it It was a great story. He would have never did that sober.
A crazy drunk moment with a happy ending.
Well, it's I've had drunk moments with happy I thinks.
This guy, by the way you're talking about the the guy acted a full reminds me of a wedding singer.
Steve, that's the best. That might be the best scene.
Better Man, one last quickie and then we'll get back to NFL and a couple of your stories.
I got what tupap? What does he say? I got feelings?
I got feelings, feeling stupid, Best Man, Better Man, Steve Buemi. So again, look, the reminder is, don't be this guy tonight, and don't be embarrassed either, because it happens to everybody, every family, all the time, everywhere. These moments happen. It's a part of life. If you could look back and laugh, that's what it's all about. Not not so much, but just a REMINDERR. Can I give everyone a remind her? As state by state, you know, marijuana is more legal in most places, so it's not a taboo conversation anymore. When I first met my wife, I went to her family's house for Thanksgiving. So this is a Thanksgiving story. Oh wow, oh you want to hear the turkey song. So one of my wife's family members before dinner pulls me aside to get to know me, like, oh, you're Sarah's new boyfriend, and I'm just trying to fit in with her family down in Texas. They pulled me in the backyard. The family member lights up and starts smoking, and they you want a come on?
Yeah, what do you do?
Seeing no?
So, you know, being like I want to fit in there. I'm not like I'm no prude.
I'm like, yeah, sure, it's like you can't but you must whatever, strain of whatever I took a little of. I sat down at the dinner table Danny, and it was one of those everything anyone said. I thought they were like Dave Chappelle. I thought they were like yes, side felt I was. I was in giggle modes. Like my wife's mom was like pass the potatoes. I'm like, I had to excuse myself, go to the bathroom and like splash water in my face, like hato. I was like, compose yourself, potato, compose you yourself, you idiot. Like I remember having tato with one of those funny words, say that allowed potato.
Yeah, it was ridiculous. So we've all had them.
That's really funny though, So your feedback, your calls, and of course more NFL fun Thanksgiving, we'll go over today's games, and of course a little peak at week thirteen of the NFL. More Cavino rich and for Dan Patrick. Next, select this. Greg Allen hit us up with a funny meme. You know the picture where Livy Dunn's all excited and Paul Sken's is like emotionless when he won Rookie of the Year. Yeah, it's a Dodgers fans Livy Dunn Paul Skean's rest of MLB. Oh, yeah for sure, I wouldn't be supposed to. Dodgers try to get Paul Skans. They're trying to get everybody right now. So anyway, we debated that if you missed anything, scoobl and skiings to the Dodgers shit us up exactly at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio.
Now you've heard the breaking news too, right, Oh no, what the Dodgers have just signed the rematch for Tyson Paul.
I knew it. I knew it. By the way, that is a rumor.
There's a rumor that his Excellency Turkey Ala Shekh, the guy who puts on all these fights in Saudi Arabia, the guy with endless amounts of money like your Dodgers, there's a rumor that he wants to pay I don't know if there's any truth. This a rumor online rumor, which means probably not true. But I ain't beating the smoke before, and it turned out to be real. He wants to pay Mike Tyson ate one hundred million dollars for the rematch Jake Paul with no script is what they're saying.
No script and no.
Rules of uppercuts and fourteen ounce gloves and things like that.
How many of those things were rumors?
Right?
Like you know, Jake Paul's promotion company came out and said there's nothing fixed about it.
That would be illegal.
And I don't believe it was fixed. I'm just telling you what they're saying or what's going on, and the real story is Ryan Garcia is also calling out Jake Paul because he can't fight for another year, so he's taken on these exhibition fights. He fights in December, and he's fighting Ampo in December, the guy that beat Pochon in an exhibition. But he said he wants Jake Paul next and he vows to end his career.
That would be a lot of fun.
But yeah, hey there's a lot of money out there, so maybe we'll see some bigger fights as a result. Now, thank you guys for your phone calls and all your feedback at Covino and Rich and if you have any more drunk family stories, oh yeah, please, we got hit up by a lot of people. Well they'll take those throughout the day. I have a question for you, being that today is all about family, Well, then set up for guys like you owe me Vic. When you're thinking about your family, the people closest to you, how about a father son h prime time, Dion Sanders and should a Sanders. This little moment in time where the last season or so Colorado was so relevant for the first time, it may be our lifetime right, had me too, Nick Danny, It's fair to say first time Colorado is that relevant in college football for a long time. Yeah, where do you see the fate of both of these men going? Do you think father and son will both be in the NFL next year? And if so, same place, different place is primetime deonce and there's a possible coach for the Dallas Cowboys, all the Raiders eyeing up his son, like where do you see I think, yeah, I think they are a package deal.
What do you see the.
Sanders essentially in twenty twenty five, because they're sitting at that Thanksgiving table today, happily hanging in Colorado.
But I feel like that is a that we're going to look back and be like.
Hey, remember when remember in Colorado had some uh buzz Travis Hunter Shador and Dion Like to me, next year that all changes. I think wherever Dion goes, his son goes.
How do you.
Orchestrate that it's not Lebron and his son. I don't think it can be that easy. I just think he pulls those strings.
Well, if you want to believe what Dion says, I'm not sure how much of this he's being honest about but he says this is where his relationship ends, as far as bringing his son all the way to the top, Like, you go your direction, make a name for yourself in the NFL.
I don't need to be a part of that.
But then on the other hand, Ice Cube was interviewing Deon Sanders last week and throughout the idea of both of them coming to Las Vegas, and Dion smiled and shook his hand, and so the body language was like, yeah, I could, I could be down there.
I saw that.
Yeah, So that's where I'm coming from, Like, I think that's a strong possibility, because even though I believe what you're saying, I believe what he says. Hey, he's his own man, and this is where it ends. That doesn't mean you deny that opportunity too, if it was positioned to you now, if it was proposed. I'm not saying it can't work. I'm not saying it's a good idea or bad idea.
Maybe you will.
I'm I'm not avoiding a tough stance on this. But father son combos working together in pro sports. I immediately think of Doc Rivers and Austin Rivers. I think of I mean, they were both players, so you could say, you know, the Griffies, you could say Lebron and his son and now you know he's in the Jet League. Is it awkward to think Dion would coach his rookie son in the NFL. That just seems that doesn't seem right. I don't know, it just seems like the dynamics.
Fine, I'm a fight fan.
How often do you see the trainers? I mean it's a lot. That's an individual sport.
I'm saying that. What I'm saying like, what's the dynamic?
If he's the head coach, there's still quarterback coaches, offensive coaches, defensive coordinators, defensive coaches, Like, you're still you know what I mean, They're still playing under different coaches. I think we look past it when it's Colorado and it's like, yo, primetime legend is coaching a college that was trash he turned the program around. But if it's the Raiders where the Cowboys or a team with legacy and history, is it almost even though it's primetime Dean Sanders and clearly his son has shown sparks of talent for sure. Is it a little too gimmicky for the NFL to do their version of Lebron and Bronni after the Lebron and Brownni thing.
Or is that the buzz the team like the Raiders in Vegas.
I mean there's a big difference though, because you've got potentially a number one draft big that's true, and you're comparing him to a player that belongs in the G League.
You're right, Schandor and Ronnie not same category.
Fair.
I'm just saying, is that too circusy for the NFL? Or is that just what a team like the Raiders would need if all of a sudden, Tom Brady, you know, and the ownership and management and all the Raiders front office get together and say, Yo, we're in Vegas. This team has been a bottom dweller for some years now. I think what Dean Sanders said, it holds a lot of weight, Like, if it doesn't happen, then it doesn't. I'm not getting in the way of that. But if it does, then that's great. I think that'd be highly marketable. I don't think that's cheesy or corny in anyway. Like Mark, there's a good chance to if it didn't happen now, that it could happen in the future. Anyway, if they both are in the NFL. If you look at Mark Davis right now, yeah, clearly, when he's trotting tom Brady around the hallways, it's almost like he's shown off like his hot girlfriend.
He loves it.
You've seen the videos like when Mark Davis tom Brady. Yeah, I mean he's got to sit down. I don't think he's you know, wearing a sweater around his pants.
You want your.
Wife or girlfriend to look at you the way Davis except Tom Brady. So I'm saying you add other high profile cool you know guys at swag like Primetime and draft his son?
Is that the vibe?
I ask you, Danny of the Raiders fan, Yeah, would that make you and Raiders nation thrilled? Or wo they be a lot of like, oh, come on, what's with this gimmick Deeon and his kid? Or is that a totally welcome scenario in Vegas?
I mean you mentioned you said bottom dwellers, but they did make the playoffs in twenty sixteen and twenty twenty one, which wasn't that long ago. But they are wildly inconsistent. One season, in one game, they'll look great and they come out with so much energy and so much effort, and then the next game, like when they had their home opener this past season in Vegas against the Panthers, they'll come out completely flat and look like the worst team in the NFL. So what they need is stability rich and Yeah, a guy like Deon Sanders could definitely bring that to a team.
Does Dion keep the silver beard?
So it's silver and black, that's silver look, So that's appropriate if he does. Yeah, I thought was in the AFC West, you need to do something to make noise because the Chiefs are not going anywhere. Yeah, they're getting older, but they can very well repeat this year. The Chiefs are a dynasty. Then you got Harbaugh, who changed the culture in Los Angeles, or the Chargers. They're headed to the postseason, likely the Denver Broncos Sean Payton. At first it was like, uh, oh, what a mistake. Now it looks like, oh, he just needed a year to get it together. You're in a division that is highly competitive. I think the Raiders need to do something a little high profile and maybe even a little gimmicky and flashy. And I think Raiders Vegas doesn't that. I think does that wreek of like Dion and his son, if they could pull that on gimmicky and flashy. I don't think we'd be thinking that at all if we hadn't dealt with the whole Lebron situation and how poorly it was sort of handled or viewed by the public, right, Like, come.
On, it's unfair.
I mean, if you went Bronnie to a potential top draft pick, I'm not seeing you comparing it. But it's it's that moment and that feeling we got from watching it, which is why it feels gimmicky. Went In fact, I don't think it would be gimmicky at all. You got two superstars who wouldn't welcome that to their franchise. You know, I think you're just basing that on the feeling we were left with with the Lebron James Bronnie James situation. And I know there's still a sweet situation in scenario, and I'm glad we got to see it. But if that didn't exist and it was just Dion Sanders and his so right now, you'd just be pumped about it period.
Rich.
I feel like this would be more so if Lebron's son was Dalton Connect, an upcoming star in the professional who By the way.
He's looking great. Huh.
He looks like the seal of the Draft. He was great again last night. So yeah, there's there's a bit of a difference here. You don't want a side show. But to Covino's point, this could work. And to your point in Vegas, that is a city where they need things for billboards there because this is going to run out really fast. We already see way too many colors of the opposing teams in the stands. Mark Davis is going to lose a hold on what he's trying to build there if he doesn't turn the ship around quickly.
I've been in a highly competitive division and a highly competitive NFL. I think there's a different layer here because while I'm not comparing it to Lebron and Bronni and Griffy and Griffy Junior, it's it's harder to get two players on the same team. If the Raiders could somehow get that pick one or pick to and get Shador, then signing a coach, that's up to you, so you don't have to. It's not as tricky as what I'm saying. If the I mean the Cowboys signed Dak so that's not gonna happen. But I'm thinking where Dion could land or who would want Dian That's that's a signing, that's not You have to hope it happens in the draft. If you're the Raiders and you have to pick one or two, you're gonna get sad or Sanders if you want him.
And he wants Vegas. And then you know he trains with Tom Brady during the off season, and.
You see he's like Tom Brady's like an uncle dam Yes.
And then after every way a forgot loss, After every Raider loss this season, he has tweeted out the praying hands saying thank God because.
He wants to be drafted in Vegas.
That's why, you know, I forgot the whole I mean, Natty, you mentioned that. Of course I remember the relationship, but that's just another like solid reason as to why that's a possibility.
So I forgot about that.
When you talk about.
All the great storylines in the NFL, and we we talk about this frequently, how the NFL continues to just deliver, it's what the NBA is missing.
Now.
We talked about NBA ratings going down. There they're missing storylines you know, it's it's it's lost a little uh, little swag, little little flavor, whatever's going on in the NBA, the NFL. What a great storyline that would be next year? And again it could be all pipe dreams that never happened at all. But if somehow the Raiders who The worst thing for the Raiders is irrelevance because the Raiders are a really historic franchise. I mean, every kid had their damn starter jacket, Marcus Allen even before that, Jim Plunkett and John Madden.
They have an organization that.
What's one of the coolest, right did you forget bo Jackson and Bo Jackson Bo Jackson. Yeah, this could be the coolest story since Yogi and Dale bearra in the eighties. But it really really could. It could bring it could bring the Raiders back to their coolest moment since maybe when they had Tim Brown and Jerry Rice and you know, the Raiders haven't felt relevant to me in a while. And talk about relevant, if you had Dion and his kid, I'm not saying it's gonna happen, but man, that would be pretty cool.
I think so.
Yeah, I don't think there's anything there's flash there because Dion comes with flash. But I don't think it's cheesy at all.
It's also Las Vegas, the city of Flash.
That's what I mean. I think it's a good vibe. Your thoughts at Covin on Rich eight, seven, seven, nine nine on Fox. And coming up, we'll go over all three games today and tomorrow's Black Friday game. Maybe make some picks, DraftKings code see our show. We'll do that next right here in the Great Dan Patrick Cavino and Rich
