And we discuss today what was the best 80s, 90s, teen drama slash comedy? Because today, June 5th is the 40-year anniversary of Ferris Bueller's actual day off. Now, the movie came out June 11th, 1986, but his day off was traced to be on this day 40 years ago, June 5th, 85.

The first to do the research, by the way, was a sports writer. Yeah, well, you hear the radio announcer in the movie. You remember Ferris Bueller's there. They see him at the Cubs game. He catches a foul ball. He's got his vest on. You hear the radio announcer say, Claudel Washington is at bat? and he was on the Braves at the time.

So the scene was filmed during an actual game between the Cubs and Braves June 5th, 85. The final score of that game was the Cubs for the Braves 2. Take a listen. Runner at first base, nobody got. That's the first hit they've had since the fifth inning.

Only the fourth hit in the game. Oh, and two, the count. There's a drive, left field, twisting, and in. to foul territory. I'm really surprised I didn't go for it. Lee Smith. What's the score?

Nothing, nothing. Who's winning? The Bears. That's my favorite line. No, that's great. The Bears. Everybody knows the movie. Everybody knows the reference.

And, of course, the camera went on to Ferris as he's jumping up and down in the crowd. Oh, it's the best. But he was looking away. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. So we can go on all day. Kennedy, Kennedy, Kennedy. When Cameron was in Egypt's land, let my Cameron go.

See what I mean? It's just a part of us at this point, Dan Byers' favorite. Now, again, that was June 5th, 40 years ago, 1985. And I always remember that because Cludeau Washington was also a Yankee. And I was a fan of his. So he was playing in that game. They figured it out. but the movie actually came out about a year later, June 11, 1986.

Now, I think that's everyone's go-to answer. Like, what's your favorite teen comedy from the 80s, 90s? I think Ferris Bueller would be the number one answer on the board. I really do. And it holds the test of time. And that's what Matthew Brodick was really cool. Really? You don't think Goonies would give it a run for its money?

Actually, it's a great answer, Danny G. Keep that on standby, and let's get the phone calls going. 87799 on Fox. Is that a teen comedy? I think that's a debate in itself. I guess it is. It is. Yeah.

And we could just say 80s, 90s teen movies if you want. Right. Because you don't come to mind for me. And I'm bringing this up because I don't feel like it gets enough props. When you think of those John Hughes classics, John Hughes did Ferris Bueller's Day Off. When you think of all those famous movies, the Breakfast Clubs and the Pretty and Pinks

and all those types of movies, movies. People often forget about 16 candles. And that is my personal number one, barely edging out of Ferris Bueller. As much as I love Ferris Bueller, and like I said, I admit and acknowledge, it probably is the number one. Sixteen candles for me, I think, is a really close second for most, number one for me. That's Anthony Michael Hall, Molly Ringwald, Long Duck Dong, Jake Ryan. I don't know those guys real names, but still a classic 1984. It came out May 4, 1984, John Hughes. And here's why I say this.

I'm the father of a teenage daughter, teenage pain in the ass, and I do the teenage kid of today test. Does the movie stand the test of time from today's eyes? Because if you watch like the Breakfast Club now, it's slow and it's boring. And kids still like it, but not as well. much as they like Ferris Bueller and not as much as they like 16 candles. I feel like people sleep on that one. That's my number one.

Danny G. Goonies, you show a kid that movie today, they still like it. Yeah. And that's how you know. And this will probably be debated as well, but McFly was supposed to be 17. They were in high school. So does that count as a teen movie? Dude, I mean, that goes down as what they call the perfect movie, maybe the greatest movie ever.

I don't even know if that's even in. this conversation. It's like on the next level. The characters it's centered around Spotty are teenagers. Yeah, but it doesn't have teen movie energy. It's more of like a time travel. There's dances and it's like much of the

parent, child. It's a great argument. I don't think it falls in that category or it hasn't, but maybe it should. But it hasn't. I mean it's a sci-fi time travel movie, but it definitely takes, a lot of it takes place in the high school setting. Like, Ferris people's Day Off is

you know, quintessentially a teen movie. Day off from high school. Yeah, and it was on this day. 16 candles, teen movie. Yeah, like I mentioned, breakfast club. I know a lot of people would say that. It's also about high school. It takes place on a high school campus, body.

No one ever fish under the sea dance. It's so interesting you say that because when people talk teen movies, it rarely comes up. Yeah, but it's a teen going back to change his parents past. The time travel. The time travel movie. Back when they were in high school, because he's in high school. Doc Brown is an undiscript age. Wow.

I'm your density. Well, there's also adults like the principal in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Strickland. Oh, yeah. So old school and 50 hits. We get you involved to solve the debate. Fox Sports Radio Nation, be dialing now. 87799 on Fox.

Maybe if you're nice, Danny G. He'll give you a prize. Who knows? I'm just trying to get people to. to call, bribing you with a swiggy. But 80s, 90s, teen dramas, comedies. I'm saying 16 candles. Ferris Bueller is definitely on the Mount Rushmore, no question.

He was off on this day. Matthew Broderick at his greatest, in my opinion. So many funny scenes and quotable scenes from that movie. I think there's one from the 90s that should be in the conversation, but only one. I agree. From the 90s that people also forget about, but I'm going to leave it open spot unless that's your answer.

It might be my answer. All right. Let's let some people call. I want people to call, yeah. And if they don't say it, then you got to bring it up. All right. Kavino and Rich Fox Sports Radio. Who do we got, Danny G?

Let's start with Josh in Ohio. Josh, old school when 50 hits, reminiscing on a Thursday. What's up, man? Happy Thursday. Before I give my argument on the breakfast club, is your pick American Pie by chance? Dude, that's a good one. It wasn't.

That's a really good answer, though. I would say for, what year did that come out, though? Let me double check. It might be 2000. Oh, okay. I thought it was 90 for some reason. I also think it's a nice workaround to not do an Iowa Sam. You know, like you want to name a couple of movies, but you just throw the one out there first.

Catching strays for the reason. Thanks, Dan. It was 99. That's what I thought. Good call on that, man, because I think that's another one. People tend to forget. That's a really good one. All right.

Let's talk to Doug in Maryland. What up, Doug? Hey, guys. Thank you for the thermos and the swiggies. I appreciate that. I got that, Danny. Awesome. I think you guys are forgetting one, 1982, Fast Times of Ridgemont High.

That's classic. That's right up there at the top of the list. That's a real good one. And you know what? We're right across the street. Yeah, we broadcast right across the street from where that was filmed, the high school that it was filmed, which is now like a mall in Sherman Oaks, California. No, that was the mall.

No, that was the mall. Oh, it was the mall in the movie. Oh, the mall was just different back then. Oh, wow. They've reconstructed it. I knew it was filmed there. I didn't know exactly what part. Nice.

All right. Let's talk to Tripp in Vegas. Bogus. What up, Trit. What up, buddy? Hey, what's up, gentlemen? How are y'all today? Hey, Tripp.

Looking forward to seeing you, man. In Vegas, June 20th, 21st, 22nd, everybody's invited. I'm going to be there. We're bringing as many as we can. I look forward to it. Before on my movie, I was going to clear up that. Real ID thing? That was the Gettysburg Address.

It was four, four, and seven years ago, you need a real ID. That was Lincoln. Yeah. We've had since Abe Lincoln to get our real ID, and I've procrastinated. And then even though Ferris Bueller is my favorite, I'm going to tell you, I'm going to tell you the 90s movie. Are you ready? Yeah. Say on a lot.

I don't think that's a team movie. That's not a teen movie. It's a great sports movie. that movie but I don't consider that a teen movie I do consider that that's a little league that's more like that has more of a Goonies vibe like that age group the age group is like young

kid like eight nine year old boys up to like maybe 13 year old boys let me ask you guys the one I first wrote down here then stand by me from 1986 that is a kid's movie you think it's kids? You think they were on the brink of being teenagers they were young kids because

remember it was like the old the old the older kids that they kind of had that little battle with at the end there. Yeah, Kiefer Sutherland. Yeah, yeah. They were like actually high school, you know, because they could drive a car and stuff. It's a great movie, but I don't get to... I love to him, buddy. Teen movies have a vibe.

It says that the kids' characters were 12 to 14. Yeah, it's not team movie to me. I don't know. Maybe Lardass was 14. I don't know. I also think that there's a difference between a teen movie and a movie you watched as a teen. Okay. That's true. And I say this because the movie lines that me and my friends in high school recited the most were from Revenge of the Nerds.

That's true. That was a college movie. Yes. But teenagers, nonetheless, because they were 18. And, yes. And there may be scenes that aren't appropriate, but when you were an older teen, you saw those scenes. Right. But it wasn't like a teen movie like you would put John Hughes.

but I know in just reciting Boogger's lines from that was the movie that as a teenager in high school that if I had a buddy that I hadn't seen in 30 years and this actually happened, he sent me Revenge of the Nerds lines from that movie. I heard that you could burp like Booker, is that true? No one, no one can. Do you remember Boogger's Big Return on Moonlighting? He was on Moonlighting. I'm a good one of Bruce Willis.

Yeah. Curtis Armstrong. You know, I think that's a great point from everybody, actually. But Dan Byer, make a great point. There's a difference. You watch it as a teen. And then there's certain movies that I think just aren't teen movies. Like Back to the Future is a time travel movie.

E.T. is an alien movie. Yeah, there's teenagers in the movie riding their bikes around, but that's an alien movie. I think teen movies are very specific. Sandlot, that's a little league kids movie or coming of age movie. All right. Here's one you can't argue. with a teen wolf that's a team movie

that's a team movie no question it's a movie of puberty it's a movie yes teen wolf I think styles and Michael J. Fox and chubs and yeah that's a good one teen movies I think the commonality is it has to sort of take place in high school I think there has to be

some sort of school involved describing back to the future you know what doesn't take place in high school spot it does behind hit him with the one from the 90s and if I could read Spots mind there's one from the 90s that could Sort of fit into the John Hughes, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Old School and 50 Hits conversation. I hope it's the same.

I hope you're not. Does it involve Seth Green? Of course. We're not giving it. Okay. Then we're on the same page. It is 1998's can't hardly wait. Definitely.

It is the quintessential teen movie. I think that's the only one from the late 90s that has the same heart and vibe of an 80s John Hughes film. That's with Amanda. Beckett and Josh, what was the name? Mike Dexter. Mike Dexter. Yeah, Jennifer Love Hewitt. Ethan Embry. Jennifer Love Hewitt

and Peter Fetchinelli. It was just an it was an all-star cast. Basically, the question is this. These are all great movies. But I'm here to say that even my number one, 16 candles because I watch it with my daughter

and it still holds up, it's still not bigger than Ferris Bueller's day off. So on his day off, June 5th, 1985, this day, 40 years ago. Is there anything that rivals that one as far as universally accepted as still watchable, holds the test of time, and great. Let's go to the phones. All right, yeah, loaded lines here.

Let's start with Jeremy and Spokane. Jeremy, you're on the show, Kavino and Rich. Yes, guys, I'm going to go with space balls from the opening scene when the ship was too long to the comb in the desert. I mean, the black guy's out of pick is just all over. I love your call, and I appreciate you contributing, but you did exactly what Dan Byer just said. You watched it as a teen.

That doesn't make it a teen movie. That's a space comedy. That's an adult comedy movie. That's not a teen movie. There's not even any teenagers in the movie. Just because you watch it as a teen, doesn't make it a teen movie. But a great call, a great movie.

I appreciate you calling. Okay. Sam, before we get to the phones, what's up, Sam? Good one from the 90s. Ten things I hate about you. Love it. It's definitely a teen movie. Yeah.

Wait, who's in that one? Heath Ledger and... Oh, yeah. What's her name? I'm not sure I'm that familiar with that movie, so maybe it's one I watch. Based on Taming of the Shrew. I mean, I obviously know the title and the movie in Heath Ledger, but I don't think I've seen it. Who else we got, the N.J.?

Let's talk to Alex. Maine. Alex, can anything rival Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Dan Byer's favorite movie on his actual day off? Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my call. Now, I wouldn't consider myself a 90s kid. I was born in 98, but one of my favorites was Matthew McConaughey classic, dazed and confused. Great.

You know, that's borderline, too. I think that's a team movie, but I also think that's like a pot movie, like a weed. It's a retro teen movie because it took place in the, it took place in the 7th. But it came out in the 90s. Group of Southern California high school students. Right. I'm glad you brought it up, man. Good one.

It's definitely debatable. And it has a huge cult following, no question, no doubt. All right. Bobby in Mississippi. Bobby, you're on the show. Kavino and Rich. How's the going, guys? Yeah, the previous caller took mine, so I had one as a backup,

and that may be borderline, but stand by me. Yeah, that was on my list. Oh, man. They say no, though. And I wanted to play the pie-eating clip that we had, the audio appear. Play it anyway. I think it's debatable on whether or not it's considered a teen movie. Let's play the clip.

I'll get it in a second here. Well, I erased it after you guys. After we shot you down. After you've ruined my dreams. All right, let's talk to Steve in Alaska. Hey, Steve. Hey, how are you guys doing today? Doing good, man.

Hey, I got one for you. It's one that probably not too many people know about John Cusack, better off day. I was just thinking of that. It was a great one. I want my $2. Dude, honestly, that's such an underrated movie that every time it was on, I left it on. I thought that was a great one. And it had the random hamburger dance scene that the kids could get into.

And the hamburgers playing Van Halen, everybody wants some. So random, so fun. I love that movie. I think it's great. Yeah, Better Off Ted's a great one. Better off Ted's a real good one. Let's talk to Chris and Phoenix. What up, Chris?

Two of them. I got one that's not exactly a teen movie, but something I watched as a teen national lampoon vacation. Yeah, that's on the list I'm looking at for team comedies. It's borderline, I guess. It's a rusty vacation movie. But, okay. I'm very specific.

I actually agree. I know certain lists group these things together, but I think 80s movies have a totally, or teen movies have a totally different. about him and John Hughes is responsible for most of them. Yeah. Like, um, we had,

we had, uh, Kelly tweeted in, uh, Uncle Buck. Like, no, you know,

and so then you're, they're like, okay, we're blurring lines or, yeah, his niece was in high school. Yeah, like,

yeah, but it's not a high school movie. More about the uncle. It's like a family. It's Uncle Buck. What would you, what would you guys say about the karate kid? Karate kid is a teen movie.

Okay. Thank you. 100%. Damn. then that might be my number one. because I still think, that's great, even though people are torn on the new one, Karate Kid Legends

in theaters now with Jackie Chan and Ralph Machio. You know, there's a movie that people forget, and people often think, at least I often think, it's a John Hughes movie, but it's not. But it comes up in these conversations, some kind of wonderful. Love it. Yeah. Yeah, it's a good one. Great team movie.

It's not a John Hughes movie, but a great 80s sort of teen movie. But when it comes to the 90s, I think the kings of the 90s, we already got the American Pies, and can't hardly wait. Are there ones we forgetting from the 90s? Yeah, there's like a few random ones like Iowa Sam mentioned.

What did you mention Iowa Sam again? Ten things I hate about you is a good one. Oh, what's the one with Rachel Lee Cook? She's all that, which I was just about to say. That's a good one. And Freddie Prince, right? Isn't he in that one? Drive me crazy.

Yeah, Freddie Prince was in that. Drive Me Crazy with Adrian Grenier and Melissa Joan Hart was another one. That was 99. There was a lot of good random. that to me is like a 90s teen movie style. Just like 80s to me is a John Hughes teen movie. So I think we crowned the king on this day. So we did solve that.

I think no matter how much we love a particular one, we all could universally agree, unanimously agree that we all love Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Dan Byer, you're not wrong about that. And it still holds the test of time. When you watch it with your little son, I'm guaranteeing he's still going to like it. He's going to think that Ferris Bueller was the coolest.

I watched her with my daughter, and I was amazed to see how she still identified with it. She thought Sloan Peterson was a hottie, just like you did. Just like you did growing up, because she was and still is. And it's a classic that we honor on his day off, on Rich's day off, because Rich is at the Mets game. So again, 40 years ago today, Ferris took the day off and enjoyed the Cubs and the Braves. and the rest of your feedback at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio and if you're on the phone now we'll do a little rapid fire on the other side

and I'm going to tell you why the Mets are so unlikable and more NBA. Fox Sports Radio, Covino and Rich.

March of the Swole Hines by English Beat. English Beat. 40 years ago on this day was his actual day off. He was trying to get home on time before his parents got there. What is the best teen comedy drama from the 80s, 90s, before we get to your phone calls,

Rapid Fire, DB, what's up, buddy? You know, you and me love some TikTok. A lot of people love TikTok. There was a TikTok video that popped in my algorithm lately. on how all of the license plates in Ferris Bueller's reference other John Hughes movies. So if you look at the license plates, say, in that chase scene where his mom and, you know, or is genie's driving and then his dad's driving, you look at the license plates,

they all reference different John Hughes films from the past. Some Easter eggs. All right. So we'll take your phone calls then. I'm going to tell you why the Mets stink. Why I don't like them. Why they're the most hateable team. and we'll get back to the NBA finals.

But your phone calls now. Who we got, Danny G? Let's go to Missouri. Kelly. Hey, Kelly. Hey, guys, I got two really quickly. Varsity Blues and Can't Buy Me Love. Now, they don't rival Ferris Bueller's Day Off because that is my all-time favorite,

but those are definitely up there as far as teen movies in the 90s. And you know, I'm glad you're bringing these up too because not everybody has seen them. Maybe you check them out. Maybe you check them out with your kids, too, to see if they still hold up. Thanks. Who do we got? I don't want your life. Tony and Virginia.

Hey, Tony. Yeah, Porky's is on some of the lists I looked at today. Ooh, is that like an R-rated teen comedy? I guess so, yeah. 80s teen comedy? You're up late at night? Go ahead, Sam. That was the one of you definitely stayed up late to watch.

I guess it was sort of supposed to be shot in the same era, but it makes me think of, like, Greece. It was Greece is a high school, definitely a high school movie. 78. I know, but it takes place in the 50s. Both of those films, Porkies and Greece, both take place,

but they're high school kids. There's also other differences. But just more the adult humor in Greece? No. Definitely adult humor. No, just like, Porkies to me was the dirty movie growing up. Right, absolutely.

Like, that's what it was. I never would have considered that a teen movie. Not exactly in the genre. No. I sort of agree with DB only because it was so next level, like I said. Who else do we got? Let's go to Pennsylvania.

Josh. What up, Josh? Hey, guys. You guys are like, you got a need for the teen movie. I think if you got teens in it, it's a teen movie. But something more my vibe is the Lost Boys. I love Ferris Puehler's Day Off, but I can watch Lost Boys every week. Moss plays is kind of a teen movie

It is I think that is sort of a teen movie and a good one So I'm glad you added to the conversation I appreciate you Is that it Danny G? No we got a few more here Oh wow Yeah man phones have been melting on this Mark Crossfire

Yeah Mark in Carson City Hey Mark Hey guys First of all I just want to let you know I was out of town when my Swigie got delivered And somebody decided they wanted it

Oh man Porch Pirates Did you call it a squiggy like Lenny and Squiggy? Hello. I feel like he said squiggy, unless I'm hearing it wrong. Sorry about your Swiggy, but maybe Danny G. could help you. Yeah, I'll talk to you after your call, and I'll send another one your way. And my team movie just got mentioned was Can't Buy Me Love with Patrick Gensy.

Good one. Thank you, buddy. Look at that, man. Better customer service than Amazon. Just like that, we'll replace it. I have a nominee, but I don't. want to take any of the caller so if we have a few more callers but I want to

run one by you all right definitely cool uh let's talk to Taylor in Orlando hey Taylor hey guys how's it going good um I'm one of my favorite movies from I think it's maybe 80 is

caddyshack great movie yeah it's not a TV movie no don't even just say no I mean Danny Noon's trying to earn a scholarship Again, he's a teen. Yeah, he's a teen. He's not a teen movie.

Not a teen. Just because a teen is in it. I didn't want to debate our callers. I appreciate you guys. That doesn't mean it's a teen movie. All right. Dan in Minnesota. Hey, Dan.

Hey, out this time's at Ridgemont High. No shoe. No shoes. No day. Definitely early 80s classic teen movie for sure. I know DB has one there. Yeah. I'm curious and your guys saw it because I don't consider it a teen movie.

But where are you on footloose? I'll tell you what I'm at. Yeah, that's on this list. That counts. Dude, my feet were never that loose. I've never seen it, man. I've never seen it. You believe that?

That's right. And I told him to know that he needs to put it on his list to see and he said, no. I never saw dirty dancing. I don't know. The whole dancing thing sort of threw me off. It is because it's based in high school. It's that whole theme. But I think I get so focused on the John Hughes aspect of it.

And I love footloose. It's one of my favorites. Do you kick off your Sunday shoot? Hey, Hey, Byer, I have one that I'm surprised nobody said, and we wore this VHS tape out. Weird science. Oh, yeah.

Absolutely a team movie. That's absolutely. Anthony Michael Hall and Wyatt, whatever his name was. Yeah, that belongs in the conversation. I'm a young Robert Downey Jr. Yes, yes. I'm a big Vision Quest fan. Great movie.

It does one of Spottie's favorites. That's a good team movie. Hey, thanks again for participating. I think we did establish that nothing really beats today's anniversary. Ferris Bueller's day off. Now, the movie came out again, 86 June 11th, but today, 40 years ago, was his day off. And we have a lot in common, to be honest, Ferris Bueller and I, both very popular with the Sportos, motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waste toys, webies. Delo adored me.

They think I'm a righteous dude. I'm Steve Kavino. Dan Byer, Danny G, Sam, and Spot is here. I'm going to tell you why the Mets stink, but first, let's talk to Dan Byer getting an update. Oh, I'm so sorry I stepped on you. I apologize for that one. Aaron Rogers stepped on the NBA finals because he's going to sign with the Pittsburgh

Steelers, the free agent quarterback, going to sign a one-year deal to play in 2025 in the Steel City, NFL Network, the first to report the news. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says Rogers is going to sign in time to take part in next week's mandatory minicam. Other NFL news, Steelers did play's 10. Donald Parham on the reserve injured list with a rupture to kill his tendon, ending his 2025 season before it began.

Day baseball, Rich Davis isn't here because he's at Dodgers Stadium. He just watched the Dodgers tie up his Mets, five apiece now, in the bottom. of the eighth inning. All the other action in day baseball is final. Giants top the Padres, three, two. Orioles have won six straight. They swept the Mariners winning four three today. A's were out the twins 14 to three. Cardinals, a six-five winner and ten against the Royals. White Sox needed 10, but got past the Tigers, three, two. And the Jays were a nine-one

Again, us on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube channel right after this show, episode 95. and we're also going to talk some NBA finals wrap it up. We did that earlier.

If you missed it, catch the podcast. But I do want to set this up. It's Rich Davis's day off. He thinks he's Ferris, Ferris Bueller, but he's a goon who likes the Mets. I got to say, I don't know if it's the whole Juan Soto thing. It probably is.

A lot of it has to do at Wonsoto as a Yankees fan. My bitterness probably starts there, but it doesn't end there. I truly believe that the Mets are the most, unlikable team in the MLB. And I'll tell you why. Because I think they were arguably the most likable team last year. And they got rid of a few key players. They added Juan Soto. And I'm here to tell you that I think they're more unlikable than the team that actually beat my team. The Dodgers. The Dodgers are way more likable than the New York Mets. And I want to know your thoughts about

it and your reasons as to why you think I'm right or wrong. We're going to chop it up and talk more MLB and NBA next right here on Fox Sports Radio, Covino, and Rich. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, huge news? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast. Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to our first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with the name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it.

Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas,

and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. All right, welcome back. Throwback Thursday that I thought was a Friday the entire day. Kavino and Rich, Steve Kavino with Danny G, Dan Baimis. Iowa, Sam, and you Fox Sports Radio Nation. Now, from searching online asking your friends and family, there's lots of ways to look for jobs. So remember, express employment. And for over 40 years, tire rack has been helping customers find the right tires for how,

and where they drive, ship fast and free, back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire insulation. tire rack.com the way tire buying should be. Now, I got to tell you, I've had a lot of fun hanging out with you guys today, but Rich Davis taking his day off like Ferris Bueller to see the Mets really got me thinking about the Mets, and I really despise him. And of course, it all goes back to Juan Soto. The Yankees did everything they could to keep the guy, and he leaves.

So every time he strikes. out and every time I look and he's still batting into two 30s and he's not doing much, I am so pumped about it. If his biggest highlight so far was a few home runs and him flipping a water bottle, yes. But it's not just that, man. It's like anything. When you rip the heart out of something, it's just never the same. It could be a TV show you like or a movie you like.

Speaking of movies, you know, when Wesley Snipes was no longer in Major League, it just wasn't the same to me. And when you think of the Mets last year, when you think of the Mets, what made them really likable was the heart that they played with and the fun stuff that they were surrounded by. Like the whole OMG thing, as corny as I thought as it was, I feel like Jose Iglesios was a major part of that team, and they threw him away, tossed him aside like yesterday's diapers. They threw him in the trash.

He's a Padre now. The whole Candelita thing, OMG, that was all. all the Mets last year. Oh, we love the Mets. And they were a fun, lovable team that, I mean, even the casual fan could get behind. Lindor, really likable guy, polar bear Pete, big goon, but he came through in the clutch. You're like, wow, there's something magical about this team. Grimmis, hawk to a girl.

Yeah, there was a lot going on that made them likable, even if you don't root for the Mets. But they tossed away a lot of that for Juan Soto. and to me that makes them so much less likable. And how about the whole vibe of they were so on the fence of even bringing back polar bear Pete? You know, he's not the most likable dude, but he plays hard.

He's a met the way I see it. No one who's really screaming about keeping them. They were ready to dish him aside. And now he's the only guy really delivering. The guy here, what, two bombs yesterday? And, you know, everyone's still talking about Juan Soto. I'm like, yo, he's your guy. ever since they got Soto, dude,

I feel like the whole image has changed and I dislike them more than I like, than I dislike the Dodgers. And they beat the Yankees this year because I think the Dodgers are still just more likable with a bunch of likable people.

And it starts with Shohei Otani. Shohei Otani. Max Muncie. Mookie Betts, dude. The guy's so likable. There's lots of guys that are fun to root for even though they're overpaid, even though they're ridiculously

good. There's something about the Mets that just rubs me the wrong way. And that doesn't feel very met to me. I feel like they're better when they're likable. Having Wonsoto has ruined their image and I think it's going to cost them when it comes to chemistry in the long run. That's my take

on that. It's like getting rid of Jose Iglesias to make room for this guy. I just feel like you got rid of the heart of what made the Mets, the Mets, and what made them likable. It's like Roseanne without Roseanne. It's like your favorite band without the main guy. Dan Byer, what are your thoughts on that? It's funny because your team

I think is a team that everybody loves to hate every single year. But I felt like the year when Aaron Judge was a rookie and he was coming on the scene that they turned likable. And I felt the Mets last year that last year was a throwaway year that ended up ending up very well for them. But once you get back to doing what you normally do as a fan of neither other teams, I don't even think it's fair for Danny to comment because he's a Dodgers fan of, you know, you guys are fans of these big, big baseball teams and the general consensus around, I think, Major League Baseball with the other 27 teams or 25 teams, however you want to say are on the outside looking into those big market squads. We usually look down on our nose at those being like,

oh, those are the big spenders. And I think you're exactly right about the Mets. Last year, they had an organic feel to them. And the run that they went on in the second. and half of the year was amazing. And now it just kind of seems manufactured. Nailed it, Dan Byer. We could wrap on that. The point is it's not the Yankees. Judge is a likable guy.

It's not the Dodgers. Muki Betts, Shojotani, these are likable guys. The Mets now and everything they did to disregard their key players to get Wonsoto, they're the least likable. That being said, NBA finals Thursday. Let's go.

Fire. Let's start with you. let's go game one who you got to win and why okay so just for tonight i think the thunder will win but i like the pacers to be able to cover i think that they'll be able to keep it close but in the end the thunder win tonight but the pacer's cover nice danny g you're big NBA guy yeah man for the series besides siacum and haliburton being huge of course i think nie smith and turner are going to be huge in this series i like the pacers in six yeah the way neesmith was hitting threes too always dangerous. Iowa, Sam, you got to pick here? Pacer's Shock tonight. Shock tonight, but who do you got?

I'll take the Pacers. Why not? I completely agree with D.B. And thank you guys for hanging out. It's Kavino and Rich. See you in the overpromised land. Let's go. Hey, guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast. Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it.
