Isn't that like some child psychology, like if you tell a kid, don't drop that? If you tell your kid, don't forget your umbrella, the kid, because you're saying forget

They're going to forget it. But if you say, please remember, you're emphasizing the positive. Remember, it's like, yeah, it is BS nonsense. Who cares? This hippie nonsense. I don't care. Guys, don't forget, all right? I got one.

Isn't it also like when you tell your kid, like, hey, be careful. You're going to fall. Instead, just be like, hey, here's a good one. No your body. Here's one I subscribe to, actually. It's actually sports related. It could be anything related. Yeah, you hit two home runs today, little Billy.

I'm so proud of you. it's not about me being proud of them. You should be so proud of yourself. I subscribe to that one. I agree with that one. That's some stuff. I like that one. The know-your-body conversation comes later in life.

Oh, that's fifth grade. That's fifth grade, right? Hey, have kids, they said. So we got one foot in dad life, one foot up your ass every afternoon here on Fox Sports Radio. Again, Kavino and Rich, 87799 on Fox every Thursday. Old School when 50 hits. So, 46 minutes from now. 50 hits on the clock.

We reminisce. And let's just say we're probably going to talk about soft drinks. Old school food and drink. There's a story today we'll get to. But it's a big butt. First we got to get into the NBA. Last night, I'm at the local pizzeria spot. They have a little party room.

We're having the farewell dinner for my daughter's softball team. Season wrapped up a pizza bye. I can't believe it. Right? Just like that. It's over already. So they got the Knicks Celtics game on in the background. I'm chatting with some of the dads.

Of course you are. And when are you not chatting? And I'm just thinking like, oh man, we could have got a better game. It was 50 to 70. Nicks were trailing by 20. I'm like 70, 50 Celtics week. I felt like I turned away for five minutes. Like, it felt like that.

It felt like I turned my head for five minutes to get some quarters for the kids for the little video games. Little arcade games. Who are they playing? Digdug? And Hubert, I look at the TV and I'm like, wait, well, hold on. This game's tied? What the hell happened? Last night, the Boston Celtics should be ashamed of themselves. What a blown opportunity to just even it up at home. Now you got to go to Madison Square Garden, the Mecca.

Should they be ashamed of themselves or should you just say props to the Knicks? because there's orange and blue skies today, as Stephen A. Smith was saying. They're putting on a show, dude. They're showing their toughness. They're taking it back to the old school. Like the Knicks means something nowadays. But Cowherd and Rob Parker told me the Knicks wouldn't even win one more game in the series. Nah, what are those Jibonis know? So I think the better question, can the Celtics come back? Who knows? Who cares? I mean, teams have come back from 2.0.

Now, when you lose one and two at home, a little different story, but I don't think that's the question here. They should change it into the New York Molleroms, bringing that joke back again on a throwback Thursday. Because they just stole the heart, ripped the heart out of the Celtics with a Galima. And he stomped all over it in Boston. Dude, you can't do that. If Boston turns it around, I mean, good for them. but the chances of that happening now not looking good

I should say that the Knicks did some something that they didn't think that we didn't think they could do and props to them well if you want to be stat boy they throw up the stats where teams that win games one and two on the road on the road

I think have won like 80 plus percent of their series that's the key here guys because they're going to go back to the garden it's going to be electric buggy yogie yogi you know what that garden's going to sound like dude it's going to be hyped beyond belief every guido in new york every old school nick fan oh yeah man every spike lee it's gonna be nuts tracy morgan's gonna throw up but out of excitement i'm gonna make them pregnant tracy morgan's gonna be there it's gonna be wild at the garden dude ben stiller's gonna be there yeah ticket prices are going

crazy and we're gonna talk about that um but i got to ask based on that forget if the celtics could come back. Paul Pierce was talking such a big game yesterday about how if the Celtics lost, like he said more likely to see a dinosaur. Here's what Paul Pierce said yesterday about

the Nick Celtics game. If the Celtics lose game two at home, I promise you, I'm walking here tomorrow. I'm walking here. Why are you going to do? Wait a minute. I'm walking here 15 miles in my road. Get your friends. No shoes on.

Somebody's saving. Bare feet. If what? If the Celtics lose tonight. I mean, I get where he's coming from. Defending champion, the Knicks, they're not punks. They're playing hard,

but they're playing a hard, a tough New York Knicks team. It's not the 90s Knicks. You know, these guys got some fire. And don't they call Paul Pierce the truth? Or is he lying right now? First of all, the sentiment was the Celtics

were going to whip their ass. They were, as we mentioned yesterday, double-digit favorites, home team after losing game one. It seemed like, all right, we expected the Celtics to do yesterday what the OKC Thunder did, which was assert yourself in game two and remind everyone, hey, listen. My God, did they ever? So they didn't. So my question is this, Paul Pierce, or anyone that loses a ridiculous bet or says some preposterous s,

do you hold them to their word? Or you're like, oh, nah, he was just team. We don't, but we should. How many people should move to Canada right now? I'll tell you, if Trump's president, I'm moving to Canada. Beat it. How many people ever live up to that? That one ever?

Ellen DeGeneres. Yeah, Ellen did. Somebody did. I must admire Ellen for sticking into it. But that's what we mean by it. People say these things and we're supposed to take their word. I think some people might argue she fled the country for other reasons. Yeah, right?

But you say things like that. You got to be a man of your right. word or a woman of your word. As they said in the 90s, your words, your bond. Well, apparently 20 miles, 8 hours, word, Paul Pierce followed through, word

up on his bet. There's video of him. Did he? Because it looked like acting to me when I saw it. It looked like he was pretty clean and fresh to have just walked 20 miles. It looked like it was a bunch of acting. Yeah, good editing. Do you believe Paul Pierce?

And I saw the little map. Do you expect? someone to fulfill this bet. Yes, absolutely. Especially when you're talking nationally to an audience and you're putting your word out there like that, you have to. You have to, absolutely.

I mean, what if we're watching the Dodgers game? Dude, what do Lannisters do? Pay their debts. You got them. What if I said to Danny, let's say we're just horsing around watching the Dodgers game? And I'm like, bro, if Teoscar Hernandez hits a home run right now, I'll give you a thousand bucks.

if Tosco goes yard does Danny really you'll win my thousand that would require my thousand I don't know you could hold him to it for fun right but I think that's where the handshake or you could negotiate I'd be like all right rich 100 and we're even

like Paul Pierce going on his rant yesterday that didn't require a handshake he was saying I will do this I promise I promise right if you're making a bet you said I'll give you a home run right now I'll give you a thousand dollars requires an official handshake. If you gave Danny G. the official

handshake in that moment, yeah, you don't own a thousand bucks. Yeah. Otherwise, that's just smack talk. That's just, whoa, what a coincidence. If you're shooting hoops or your buddy, and you're like, yo, half-court shot, Hondo if I hit this, what? Like, yeah, did you shake on it? No, did you shit? You got to shake out.

So my question is, the gentleman's shake, that matters. Paul Pierce-level bets. What have you told your buddy, hey, in 04, let's say some Yankee fan was like, yo, Red Sox stink. Yo, if they come back down 30, I'll get the Red Sox logo tattooed on my ass. And if you expect that. Wait, no, really?

Yeah. All right, bet. Shake out it. And then? Then it's official. Yeah. Yeah. I think so.

If you present it that way, when Paul Pierce, he sort of set up everything on his own. If this happens, I'll do that. That's on his own thing. Okay, go do it. You know what this reminds me of? Our pal Mad Dog Russo. Oh, I knew you're going to bring it up. Who.

I love. Remember a couple years ago? Hey, Mad Dog Russo. See, now, real life, right? I guess life imitates art in this case. But in the world of entertainment, there's something called the payoff. Payoff translates in real life, too. Like, where's the payoff?

You didn't pay off. But in broadcasting, television, entertainment, you can't say something and leave it hanging. You have to give the payoff. That's like saying, that's like teasing something on the radio, give a tribute question, never gave the answer. It's a bit A bit needs a payoff.

A joke needs a punchline. Exactly. But especially in entertainment. If you set up something, you need to hear or see the other end of it. Now, Mad Dog Russo, who I respect. Mike and the Mad Dog paved the way for everyone in sports radio. So you always got to respect Mad Dog Russo. He's a good dude, too.

Yeah, respectfully, we do love the guy. But the only thing Mad Dogg Russo has ever done that made me go, Oh, come on, doggy was when he said that Arizona Diamondbacks will never win. Like, he was so adamant that the Diamondbacks wouldn't make it to the World Series. I think they played the Phillies and someone else.

Like, every series along the way, he was anti-Diamenbacks. And then the team was even in on it, like, yo, Mad Dog Russo is against us. When they made it to the World Series, and they did lose that World Series. Wait, did they make it to the World Series? that they lose in the...

No, but it was advancing to the next round to the NLCS, right? I think... Yeah. But Mad Dog Russo said if they beat a certain team, he would retire. And they did. I always remember him just sort of being like,

well, what are you going to do? And it was a big deal. So... They did make it. Oh, that was the Rangers, Diamondbacks year? In my mind, I'm like... I thought that was the Dodgers Yankees year for whatever. Two years ago already?

Two years ago. Yeah, 2023 World Series. Oh my God. It was kind of a forgettable World Series. That's when you dust it off your Creed CDs, remember? Yeah. Can you take me higher? Thank you, Kirk Cousins.

You're absolutely right. So, yeah, my instinct was right. Yeah, the Diamondbacks lost in the World Series. I just can't believe that was two years ago. The Mad Dog thing happened. So again, as a radio guy, you think he's almost setting up a bit. If they make it through the World Series, I'll retire. Okay.

They made it. So now what? Now you're going to forget about this whole buildup you made? It was a big story. And it wasn't something that he said in passing. It was like a big deal. A proclamation. And everybody was talking about it. That's how Adam and he was.

And then if you remember, when it came down to a payoff, Howard Stern even said, look, even as an entertainer, as a radio guy, you got to have a payoff. You have to do something. Now, gave him like an out or an opportunity. The reality is that none of us wanted. or expected. Mad Dog Russo to retire. Oh, no, of course not. Like, why would you want a legendary great broadcaster to retire?

I didn't expect him to retire, Rich, but he had to pay off after making that proclamation. Yeah. And I believe Sirius X-M's Howard Stern gave him an out like, Hey, listen, Mad Dog Russo, why do you go around Times Square? Because you got it. In like diamond back underwear and just make a fool yourself. Yeah. And that, like, and I was wrong.

Here's my payoff. I remember thinking, wow, Howard came out with a great out. A great compromise. For Mad Dog Grover Sunday, he's like, yeah, not going to do that. And I'm thinking, we never got that payoff. And that's why that bit will always stick in my mind. Like, yeah. And I think that that's the learning lesson there.

For a guy who rarely missteps, I mean, Mad Dog has given us plenty of great payoffs in his career. That's one where you were like, what? You were saying X, Y, and Z. and you didn't give us anything. I think that Paul Pierce didn't necessarily have to walk 15 miles barefoot in a robe. I'm glad he did something. But he could have sat there with a dunce cap on and said, I was wrong or whatever. And that would have been fine if he at least acknowledged it.

There needs to be a payoff. There has to be something. And it doesn't have to be that. It could be a compromise. I wish there was a live stream on him today. You know what I mean? because I've seen clips and most of the articles I'm looking at says it appears that he paid the bet off. And there is a shot where he's wearing shoes.

So they said he did wear shoes for some of it. He obviously was a photo op where he was walking barefoot. You mean the truth is full of BS? Who knows? I want some investigators on this to see how much of this he walked. Did he drive and stop and walk and film and then get back in the car? Was he, you know, acting this out? Can a guy of his stature?

I mean, how tall is Paul Pierce? You look at him, you know he's somebody, even if you don't know basketball. With all the fans and everybody that does know him, can a guy like him do this and not be harassed? He's six, seven. Six, seven guy walking around a row. Fair face. Can he do that, honestly? Is that part of it?

A robe with his last name on the back. Yeah, can he really do that. Well, it's Holly Weird. Of course you can. Tourists walk. It's just Holly Weird. I don't know. I am a nobody from nowhereville and I can't walk around and feel safe into Hollywood.

I was in Hollywood this past week ago. My daughter, I couldn't get to my car fast enough. It doesn't get murdered. Where were you? Not even kidding you. Yeah, I was like, get me out of here. Hobo Alley is where I was at. I don't know where I was.

You having lunch on Skid Row? Yeah, I know. I was at a tourist attraction getting lunch. You know what made me think, though. Hobo. That's, uh, that's, uh, well-dressed hobo. That's why in the world of boxing and wrestling, which I'm not saying of the same thing. That's why when they use the word retirement, I never take it serious because how many times has there been a retirement match in wrestling?

And a year later, he's reinstated or a boxer or a UFC fighter will say, this is it. They're the biggest culprits, yeah. And then the money comes back and it's like, wow, he's fighting again. I'd have to say those are the biggest culprits followed by people that are going to move out of the country if so-and-so wins the election. Because they never do. they never stick to their word. So Paul Pierce had the payoff for that we give him props. Did he really walk the 15 miles?

And when do you have to pay up? You have to give some sort of compromise, some sort of payoff always, as we learned. But as far as money is concerned, the handshake is the be-all-end-all deal maker. That's it. Did we shake on it? When you and I put $1,000 in Yankees Mets.

Yeah. Right now, if I had a pay-all-end-all deal maker, that's it, pay rich, I'd have to pay them $1,300 because the Mets have three more wins than the Yankees. So we have a thousand dollar bet plus $100 for every game over. We shook on that. We made it

public. It burns me inside that I'm going to have to pay this guy if they win. Every time the Mets win a game on the Yankees, I'm like, oh, there's another hundred bucks, but we shook on it. That's what made it official. Danny J., if the Mets are ahead towards the end of the season, much

like Dreyf Kings, I'm going to start giving Kavino payout options. Like, let's say, if I do the truffle shuffle, I could take $500 off. Let's say it's like early September and there's still a month of baseball, but the Mets are, let's say five games better. I may say double or nothing. No, no, Kavino. If you cancel the bet now, you only have to pay me $1,000.

Oh. Or give you payouts. I give it, if the Mets are up by three games with 15 to go, I might say, you know what? 800 if you cancel now. But what made it official because, you know, Rich Knight, we talk stupid things like that. all the time. I didn't shake on it so it doesn't count. We shook on that. Different story. But I'm glad to hear

that Paul Pierce stood his ground, did his thing. He at least put effort. Yeah, at least gave us the illusion that he did it. And props again to the Knicks. Let's not forget that these guys are in a zone. They're playing big. Brunson's just hitting nice shots and

they're looking nasty. Let's also not forget that the Boston Celtics are the defending champion. And so if there were an exciting storyline of a team being down 2-0, having to go to New York. Like, I mean, it has like Yankees, Red Sox written all over it, right? Like Red Sox have to go to the garden now? Jalen Brunson's playing at a different level. As you said, when Jalen Brunson shoots a shot, sometimes it feels like it doesn't even hit the net.

Yeah. Like his shots are hitting so crisp. It looks like, did that go in? Seriously. And we looked at this up on the Doug Gottlieb show. coach Tom Tibido. He was coach of the Bulls. 2017 had a 2-0 series lead over the Celtics in the Eastern Conference first round.

Ended up losing the series. So it has been done before. It's been done before. It can be done. Oof. Taking hearts. Game three in the garden is going to be the hottest ticket. We're going to talk about those prices later.

But right now, Boston is favored at the garden for game three. They think the Celtics are somehow going to rebound. Well, and to that point, Rich, bet on line. Series open Celtics minus 750 to advance. Damn. Nix were plus 535. So substantial. Yes.

Yes. Now Nix minus 105 is Celtics minus 115 to win the series. So it's not like it's the Nix minus 300 and the Celtics plus 200. The Celtics, according to Vegas, will still win the series. Yes. 115 minus 115 is you're still. wagering more. So Vegas would say right now it's sort of even

slight advantage Celtics still. Yeah, it's clearly not over because it's the Celtics defending champions, but the Knicks did everything they had to do. Listen, Lizzo did not sing yet. So you're telling me there's a chance. Yeah. Now the other series,

man, the Thunder played like the team that was 20 games better than everyone else in the league. So now you've got to ask yourself, does Denver go home now? And Yokic say, yo, guys, what happened?

So a lot of great NBA right now. It's really exciting time to be even a casual. That was such a blowout, Rich. I don't mind that you continue down with your pizza night because that game was like, what? Damn. They were sleepwalking because in a lot of these games, you're not sure if it's over because 20 points in the NBA,

it's not that hard to come back from that deficit. They had 87 points at halftime. Did he your girlfriend ask you why is Yokish on the bench? Why is he not playing? I said, look at the score. Why is the best player not play? You rest them. This is not happening tonight.

That was insane. Again, if you missed it, the next one, 90190 and even Carl Anthony Towns, you know, they all had big games. They're all playing well. The Thunder one, 149, 106. Yeah, there was a shot on the crowd in the third quarter and some of the fans were laughing. And I was like, this is, yeah, this is over. tonight at least. So as we've said, NBA playoffs bringing it tonight, Warriors, T. Wolves, but a Steph Curryless Warriors for what? The next three games, correct?

Yeah. And that's even a question mark. Right, right. Now the game is, can they extend things long enough for Curry to come back? Yeah, as we said the other day, Danny, if they could steal one of the next few games, then get to game five, two, two, that should be the goal for the Golden State Warriors. win one of the next few games. That way when Steph comes back, you're sort of, now you're playing a best of three. That should be the goal for Golden State. All right, we got more Kavino and Rich coming up.

We're going to go old school in a little bit. We'll talk more NBA. A lot of fun. We'll talk about ticket prices. I was going to say, speaking of the Knicks, we got to talk about these ticket prices. Because the garden is going to be rocking.

Like, we haven't seen it in years, and it's going to be a hot, hot ticket. We've got to talk about that. All right, well, it's playoff time. And if you're still just watching the games, you're missing out with pick six from Draf Kings, you could turn your hoops knowledge into real cash. Just make your picks, track your score,

and if you hit all six, you're looking at bigger payouts than prize picks flex plays. It's going to be insane. Now, you could say, what am I thinking? Jimmy Butler? Jimmy Butler, you know, without Steph in the lineup,

24 and a half points. What do you think of that? I believe it. You know why? It's like you got to step up here. And that's what great players do. Jimmy's already known to do that. But minus Steph, yeah, he's the guy.

I mean, I know, buddy. Heald went 30 plus his last game, but they got him at 14 and a half. Does he take a step back or he's saying, you know, Buddy Heald's going to step it up. So you can play like this and it's a lot of fun. You pick six. If you hit all six, over under. I definitely go over on Jimmy Bowler. All these over unders.

25 times your cash if you hit your pick six. And if you beat your competition, you could win as much as 500 times the bag. Get that money right in your pocket. Cash money.

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.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis. And I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs.

And on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Jenchian went. I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lena Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now. And I actually can win on any surface.

Because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Thanks again, Travis Matthew.com. Now in less than 20 minutes, old school and 50 hits, we throw it back and reminisce. but Iowa Samuel here on the C&R show played some some the Beatles some the Beatles some the Beatles and today marks a day so we'll throw it back even a little right now to 1970 you weren't even around rich neither was I no but let it be

was the last album their 12th studio album came out today in 1970 Danny G am I correct on me that? Yes, you are. Got all the info? Because that's crazy to think they had 12 albums in that short period of time. That is wild, right? So that was the last one at the time.

And, of course, they've had other remastered songs and other collections and box. They crammed a lot into a little time. They like the Denver Nuggets. I'm sorry, they like the Oklahoma City Thunder cram in 87 points in one half. Yeah, exactly. So today marks that day. And when you think about it, I mean, just legendary, dude. even this morning I'm listening to, like John Lennon,

I'm listening to Paul McCartney. It's like, they're still a major part of our lives. There's beetle haters out there, I get it, but they had such huge influence till this day. So you got John and Paul. And by the way, speaking of John and Paul, shout out to Pope Leo. You know what?

As the memes go, it took us three days to Draft Shador Sanders, too, to get a new pope. Covino, we should point out, it was bittersweet for Beatles fans because it was nearly a month after the official announcement that the group was going to break up. Yeah, they played that rooftop show and

everything. Yeah, my family, big Beatles family, so I grew up knowing and loving all this stuff. By the way, how exciting was the Pope announcement this one? It was insane, dude. It was awesome. I was watching. You know what, it's funny, I said the NFL draft and

the Catholic Church have one thing in common. hundreds of thousands of people gathering just to hear a name announced. Guy comes out, Pope Leo, crowd goes nuts. They just needed someone to announce them, though. You have a lot more people around the world probably too big. From Chicago, Illinois, out of the University of Villanova. What if it was like James Lennon Jr. You're like, from Chicago, Illinois, he is your next pope.

Or maybe old school Howard Finkel. Coming down the Vatican. This guy, they had to spice it up. Joe A. Martinez. The Vatican, are you ready? Catholics, are you ready? In those social media things, it's like what, you know, what hill will you die on sports take that people don't agree with? I've got two of them. And one of them is that the LeBron decision was the greatest thing that you could have done for sports television.

Yeah. Like, what do you think about that? Like, there was drama. There was buildup. There was There was love, there was hate. I mean, I know Cleveland hated it because it ripped their hearts out on national TV. But that sort of buildup and that sort of announcement, just like the dramatics of the pope unveiling today with the smoke. And then you're waiting for the curtains. And then you're listening to the name. And it wasn't in English.

So we're figuring it out and trying to sort it all out. Like there is drama to that. And I think more free agent moves should be made that way. It was wild. There was a lot of showmanship. There was some great showmanship. We're not even trying to make light of it. It was wild to see.

It was really cool. So again, I hope you had a Nick's Thunder, Pope Leo sort of day. Honestly, and to compare to the NFL draft, I know sounds ridiculous, but you know when the team's drafting a player, they go to that fan base. Like in Green Bay, if the Cardinals were making a pick, they would focus on like the 20 Cardinals fans there. Like, yeah. When they announced the Pope and it was an American guy, they focused on a guy holding up

an American flag. Like, yeah, America. So it was a really. a really cool moment this morning for those that are Catholic and, you know, just in general, a big moment. And it was cool to see all the Cardinals there. I saw Willie McGee in the background. Stop, but Vince Coleman.

Come on. Vince Coleman was not there. Come on. Do Willie McGee? You got to your Molina? So, hey, we'll get back to the Pope later on. It was a big day, though. I saw Willie McGee at a champs in Northern California once.

We haven't seen Willie McGee. I have, I still, I think I have the picture on my phone. Come on. I've got to see them. All right. I'll show you. Dan, you're a handsome guy, but in that photo, you're the most handsome you ever looked.

Yeah, he didn't see Louis McGee, not a looker. Yeah, well, no, I didn't take it with him. I just took it of him trying on shoes. Yeah, I wasn't going to bother Willie McGee trying on shoes. By the way, you know,

I know what people say, I'm not sure anyone else on planet Earth has that. Do you think there's another human that has a picture of Willie McGee trying on shoes? You know, he might want that photo. Yeah, you know. Absolutely not. DM him later. So back to what I said.

I said John Paul, John Paul, but is John Paul, George, and Ringo? Right back to the Beatles, because on this day again, 1970, though back Thursday, was the release of their last album. Dude, we're talking super duper stars. John and Paul hit after hit. And then George Harrison, he has his selection of hits too. I mean, my guitar gently weeps.

He's got a ton, dude. His solo stuff is great. George Harrison was probably the heart of it all, man. and he equally was as talented at everybody. And I'm not saying that Ringo wasn't. He had a style and he fit it perfectly. Peace and love. And you know what?

He gets the last laugh and I'm setting it up respectfully because, well, hold tight. Because Ringo, I mean, he was Ringo. He had yellow submarine. Compared to the other guys, compared to the other guys, he's the weak link. Even though an amazing drummer and he had his own style. Even though he gets the last laugh now, Rich, he's still alive. kicking and he looks the best. So he gets the last laugh. He won

in life, right? But if you were the Ringo, you're the weakest link of the crew. Kind of. Unfairly but true, right? So, of all the championship teams or the team you root for, who is the Ringo? Who's your Ringo?

Who's your Ringo? Who is your Ringo? On a day, on a throwback Thursday where, again, their last album came out on this day. Like, who's the wringo? Like, oh, no, they're putting them in. I have a wringo right now. I'll let you know who it is.

We'll take your feedback and all that. But let's go to the end buyer. Can I say something before we go to the employer? You have my last year wringo. You have my last year wringo. I have my last year. Yeah, you currently have. Yeah, you currently do.

Last year. Yeah, yeah. But think about it. Fox Sports Radio Nation, who's your Ringo, 87799 on Fox? Let's go to the great DB. What's up, Dan? Yeah, guys, Warriors and Timberloves tonight. 8.30 Eastern Time, Warriors up

1-0 in the series, but without Steph Curry. You're going to miss the game because of that hamstring strain. Earlier today in Minneapolis, just across the street, the Twins topped the Orioles 5-2. Minnesota sweeps that three-game series. Red Sox Blanked the Rangers 5-0. Royals all over the White Sox 10-0 was at final. Well, the Tigers just beat the Rockies.

10-2 in game one of a double-heder at Coors. Tigers-crate Chet Lemon passed away at the age of 70. The Pirates fired manager, Derek Shelton, after a 12 and 26 start to the season. Bench coach Don Kelly will serve as skipper for the rest of the year. Carolina Panthers are releasing defensive engine divvy and Clowny. The team also placed running back Jonathan Brooks on the Pupplist as he recovers from a torn ACL. First round play at the truest championship.

Keith Mitchell leads at 9 under par. Colin Moracawa is just two shots back at 7 under as they play in Philadelphia. Rory McElroy, DISA Day for McElroy on his round, finished at 4 under par. and currently is five shots back of the lead. Keynes and Capitals tonight on the ice. Cains up 1.0. 7 o'clock Eastern, Oilers and Golden Knights in Vegas at 930 Eastern time. Anaheim Ducks named Joel Quenville as their head coach. Guys, back to you.

Thank you, Dan Byer. I think the biggest story today is that Dan Byer saw Willie McGee try to shoes up. It's big news. Where was it again? It was like in Northern California somewhere. And I'm pretty sure I either tweeted it, but I will get you the picture. But where was it? Champs or Footlockers?

champs. Yes. That's so funny, dude. All right. So who's your Ringo? Now, get to your phone calls. Your Ringo could be a guy that he's on your team. He doesn't need to be bad because Ringo's not bad. No, no, no, no. He's not bad. I'm not trying to hate on Ringo. Like for me, I'll give you my Ringo. And then we'll take your feedback when we come back. My Ringo is a Mets fan with a team that has Lendor, Alonzo, Soto, all guys that I very much like. I, you know, Nimmo, Starling, Marte, there's guys that are very likable. To me, Jeff McNeil is my Ringo. Like, I feel like he's lucky to be there.

I know he's a former batting champion, but he has never been the same since. And I feel like, I feel like, Jeff McDiel, you're lucky to be there. Right, yeah. He's my Ringo. And that's kind of how people viewed Ringo. That doesn't make it true. It doesn't, because there's people that'll tell you that Ringo is one of the best drummers of his era. He's still great.

Big leager, a former, you know, a former batting champ in my example. But McNeil, no, it's a good end. That's your Ringo. That's the guy you're like, you're least excited about. Like, that's really it. There's a part of me. Then I'm like, yeah, I'm just not, you give me Ringo vives. Hey, dude, Ringo had his fans. Who would you be least excited about if it was 1970?

Bringo. Ringo. Probably. All right. Your feedback, your phone calls, all that next. And we'll go old school. So please hang. Kavino and Rich.

So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it.

Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early, names of our band before Jonas Brothers was... 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, 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.

How you doing? We're good, man. What? Miss you guys. They took you guys off the L.A. station, man. What? Horrible. What?

He says who? There's no 6-10 no more. You're not on-Han-Lancaster Palmdale. Yeah, they're adjusting their lineup there on the affiliate in the end. We're going to have to go and knock on their door. The high desert affiliate. You're not on 570 either. You and Gottlieb, everybody else is. You know what's beautiful about this, though? you could hear us any time on the podcast.

Any time. Or the app. Jerry, how are you listening today, Jerry? I'm on the IHeart radio app. There is. All right. I don't have to whoop some ass, though.

At least I don't have to listen to Rob Parker. I love Rob Parker. That's do-doo. I love Rob Park. You can't be nice to me. Rob's the best. Oh, I love Rob. Who's your Ringo, though?

Go ahead. My Ringo would be, well, Danny G. He has him now, but it used to be Luis. Garcia, man. I hate it. He's on the Dodgers now. Oh, boy. That's what I'm saying. I want to handle it. Got to handle it respectfully. Not you, man. Great call. I appreciate you.

Because Ringo was part of something great, but the other three dudes he was with, they were just extra special, right? So, respectfully, all these guys are talking about are great, but they're the weak link of all the great ones. That's what I'm getting at. Now, last year...

Who's the Ringo of the Fox Sports Radio Leto? Oh, that's a tough one. Write it down. I'll write it that. I'll write it that to show you. Last year, Rich, you've got my wringo was Clay Holmes for many years with the Yankees. You mean the 4-1, ERA and the 2's Clayhomes? And that's a great reminder that, hey, you may be the Ringo here, but you're the John Lennon somewhere else. Right? So maybe a change in scenery is what people need in life sometimes.

And for me, now it's Marcus Stroman, just attitude and everything else. But I hated him. Again, who, yeah, yeah, you know all about him as a Mets guy. Who's your ringgo? Hit us up with your answer at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. And now it's time. There's a search. Yeah.

What we're going to do right here is go back. Back into time. Throwing it back for a Thursday. Old school when 50 hits. At 50 after, CNNR give you the time capsule topic and we reminisce together. Yeah. Well, I saw this trending and it's hashtag national have a Coke. because it was on this day, May 8th, back in 1886.

Have a Pope Day. Have a Pope Day. Oh, Oh, Oh. In 1886, a small pharmacy in Atlanta, Georgia, with the first to offer Coca-Cola for $0.5. And now it's one of the biggest brands on planet Earth. What are they putting in this stuff? It's so Americana, too.

That's what's so cool about it. Like, there is a sense of pride there. Just like we have pride to find out we have a pope from Chicago. Over 200 countries Coca-Cola's in. They say 1.8 million servings per day in the world. And it all started on this day in 1886. And Kimino and I were joking about the progression of Coca-Cola throughout the years. And do you remember they tried new Coke for a year?

Yeah, failed experiment. And what's out about it's because everybody loved Coke. Yeah, we love Coca-Cola. Leave it alone. Why do you need a new formula for the biggest product? So it got us thinking about this. discontinued food items. It could be desserts. It can be sodas, soft drinks, cereals.

What were the discontinued items that you actually liked? Because as many people hated New Coke, there's got to be someone that's like, you know, I really liked it. Okay. So start thinking about it. 87799 on Fox. We got more seeing our next. 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.
