Ooh, love you. Happy balantimes, poppy. It's almost Valentine's Day. Got to make your reservations, man, or else you're eating at Applebee's. Can I give everyone a dirtbag move of the day? I call it a Rich Davis move of the day. Yo, Monxy, pay attention to this, Iowa, Samuel,

Danny G. It's better be good. If you forget to make a reservation for Friday, Valentine's Day. Just go to the restaurant that you want and be like, oh, yeah, can be no party or two? Sir, we don't have you here. What do you mean if you don't think I made a reservation?

And they might be like, oh my God, I'm so sorry. Right this way, sir. Yeah, because nobody's doing that. That's your, like, wild trick. Everyone's doing that, Rich. You're a from you. They're not going to take you. They're not going to take your word for that.

They mean, like, sir, get out of my face. You don't think I made a reservation? Sir, get out of my face. That was your dirtbag tip. I mean, here's what you do. You go on like a resi or an open table. you make a reservation for like, let's say a month in advance, and then you Photoshop the date

so it looks like you made it for February 14th, then you show it to them, be like, I have this confirmation, see? Damn, that's good. Oh, you think that's good. You can't just show up without any sort of proof. Show up and you make a stink. You have to show up like an old-timer. You have to show up like an old-timer, see.

Get out. Like Spidey said. I made a reggie, she. Or Reggie. Why would they want to argue with my table, please? They wouldn't want to argue with an old-timer like, they don't want to argue with Dick Tracy. Exactly.

Or don't be a sucker. Don't be a sucker. Don't be a sucker and go out to a restaurant that night. It's like going out of New Jersey. I agree. But then again, reminder, there are some people, and I'm not saying they're a pain in the ass, but there are some women and men that need to do things on the day. One of our best friends, one of our friends, Shannon, my wife's best friend.

Shannon is one of those like, it's my birthday dinner tonight. We're like, it's Tuesday. And she's, can't we go Friday? And she's like, but today's my day. Like some people want to do it on the day. I feel like your exes like that. Well, that's why she's man. Yeah, but Valentine's Day is made up anyways.

Jesus wasn't born on that day. Covino's ex-wife wanted him to skip Spots' wedding because it was on like some day, wasn't it? It was on her birthday or so. Nice. Yeah. What a keeper. Looking back, I maybe should have.

I don't know. Anyways, week. Just kidding, Spot. Spots on the videos at Covino and Rich. Danny G's super producer. What up, Danny G. What up? Man, he's got that Barry White voice ready for Valentine's Day.

Yeah, baby. You're going to sing some power ballads to Brenda? Maybe I brought some ale, pour your local home. He's going to be like, sing some boys to men. The love I have right next to me is here and always will be. He'd be singing some boys to men, bro. Never going to let you go. I'm going to hold you in my arms forever.

Some Barry White getting ready. So Danny Jean, his buttery voice is on standby 87-19. 99 on Fox. Iowa Samuel. What up, Iowa, Sam. He's on the ones and two. Rich, I believe I met Shannon at your party. Yeah, a lot of the guys were asking for.

How is Devin Williams going to change baseball forever?

Well, today's a special day. Not only two days away from Valentine's, Papa, but it's pitchers and catchers. reporting, man. I thought that was Friday. Yeah, no, pictures and catchers. Valentine's. No, pitchers and catchers are reporting. So we're getting closer

and closer to baseball, which always helps the post Super Bowl Blues. So I'm excited about that. NBA Laker updates. We're going to talk about Robbie Cannell. But I got to give us a quick update on a really fun conversation we had yesterday.

We were talking about Aaron Rogers and we spent a good amount of time having a really funny yet informative conversation. Well, we went over every team. Like, where could he possibly end up if he doesn't retire? It really was a team by team breakdown of, well, he can't go there next, can't go there next. All right, that's a possibility.

Damn Byer was weighing in, Danny G. We all had our thoughts and we said 27. Giants, there was a few possibilities. The Raiders. There was like five or six. teams. We narrowed it down that 26 teams, it's just impossibly. It's talking to my dad on the way in. Oh, I haven't talked to you. Super Bowl Week sounded great. Caught up with my dad. Oh, hi, Rich, it's your father.

And by the way, every voicemail he leaves me starts with, high rich, it's your father. High Rich is your father. I know. I know it's you, dad. And he said, that was a great conversation. And we talked about it even more. And by talking it out even more with dad, it's like, you know what? I see it going totally different. I go, what do you mean? He goes, well, Aaron Rogers is such a peculiar yet intriguing dude that in the world that all you guys live in today. Can't this guy team up with someone and just do a podcast and make a ton of money? And then the season starts and inevitably, unfortunately, there will be a top tier quarterback that goes down. Happens all the time. Unfortunately,

Yeah. And Danny G. You ever thought how yesterday we never even thought about the idea of that team doesn't exist yet because it could be a top tier team that loses QB1 and all of a sudden Aaron Rogers is the answer to come in and save the team? Yeah, we didn't go over that. That was like the one blind spot we had in that conversation. Like there could be any top tier team. The 49ers, you know, the Eagles, the the bucks. There could be any team that's a good NFC team or AFC team. where QB1 goes down and the quick fix is, man, we have so much talent, we can't just throw the season away, Aaron Rogers. And I think that's the answer because I don't think there's a very clear one. So since there's no clear fit, we're trying to put a square peg in a round hole,

why not just say he doesn't play? And then the minute, unfortunately, someone will get hurt, that's where Aaron Rogers steps in. It would be a great possibility and a great solution, but would he be mentally and physically ready and prepared to jump right back into the NFL? I'm staying shape. Yeah, I mean, you would have to hope and assume. He's got a big ego. So to sit around and be like, oh, I'm away.

I don't know if he's that kind of guy, Rich. But he would also love to be the guy that comes in and saves the day. That part is true. A tour goes down, unfortunately. Knock on wood. Mike Big Daniel. You. Aaron Rogers, one year deal.

Comes in like the hero. Goes down to South Beach. Saves the day. There's a hero. Joe Burrow. Your high ankle sprain. Out for eight weeks. There goes my hero.

Aaron Rogers comes running in. Justin Herbert. Oh, man. Rotator cuff. He can be your hero, baby. We're off to find the hero of the day. Aaron Rogers. So it could be true.

And yet we can't get this guy to do karaoke at listener events. Oh, no, no. Only what I want. Yeah. It comes out organically. Yeah, when you put pressure on me, I don't want to sing. We need to be a duo. It sings in Metallica.

Oh, yeah, let's do it. Me and you, Sam. Ooh, yeah. You mean next year's halftime performers, let's hope, because it's in San Francisco. You know what, Rich? I think that is a strong possibility, but only if he's, like, mentally, prepared in that way. I'm not saying that he falls up, but what if he really makes

a solid mental decision that he's done? Sometimes when people make that decision, it's hard to come back from it. Then again, there's so many pro athletes in the fighting and football where they get that itch. They say they're done, but they want to play again. I know he is, you know, one of one. The guy

went to 10 Super Bowls, won seven of them. There's a part of me that thinks Tom Brady could step on the field tomorrow. But then again, he's condition TB12. He looks better now than he did coming out of the combine 25 years ago. But you don't look at Tom Brady and say, you know, if he wanted to at what, 46 next year? You don't think Tom Brady, if he wanted to, could be the quarterback of your Raiders, Danny Jay?

Oh, just this past postseason, there's the video of him throwing the nice tight spirals to Gronk pregame. And internet blew up. Like, see, this guy could join a team right now. He could suit up for the Raiders if maybe he signs his ownership. shares to his son. Did you happen to see that clip of Colin when Tom Brady was on the herd? Tom Brady talked about how when you hit a certain age, your football knowledge, like Tom Brady's football IQ is unmatched. He said that Super Bowl he went into it against the chiefs. He knew what every defender's like little ticks and movements were. He knew by looking at a

linebacker, are they going to come at me or are they going to drop back? Because he studied so much film like, when their arms moved, like I could tell that, you know, they're not going to rush me. Tom Brady's so studied and so disciplined that I think just based on his football IQ and the fact that he stays in shape could still be a quarterback. So if you don't think Aaron Rogers could take a six-month little break, come back mid-season if a team needs him, no doubt. Yeah, but Tom Brady was still playing well in his last season.

Aaron Rogers hasn't played well in two years now. Yeah, but he turned it on towards the very end. I didn't say he sucked, but he wasn't Aaron Rogers. Aaron Rogers also did come back in, like, record time. He didn't come back because they didn't need him, but he was on pace to come back in record time from an Achilles injury. So it's not like he's Old Man Winter. It's not like he's Bartolo Colon trying to get back on the mound again.

Okay, but his focus is in a cave somewhere on a darkness retreat, playing the bongos. Tom Brady's focus was on football. There's a big difference there. Where's your mind at? Where's your head at as the basement? Jack said. And by the way, since you brought it up, if you think Tom Brady could get back out there, and if you think in this hypothetical, Aaron Rogers would just step out of the podcasting

booth to jump right back into football, this brings up the Robinson Canoe story today. Yeah, Robin Canoe thinks he could very well just hop right back on an MLB team. And I'll tell you this, every sport's different, right? I don't know if I buy into that, man. Every sport is different. Of course, that's a very blanket statement. Let me. explain. The downward curve at the end of someone's career is steeper in all sports. Like you fall

off that cliff at different heights in different sports. Like the NBA, you go from averaging 26 to 22 to 18. You know, production goes down. You're a little slower. Football, you know, wide receiver gets a little slower, 900 yards instead of 1,200. I feel like in

baseball, some of these sluggers, it's just over. I don't know what happens. You go from hitting 30, 40 bombs, hitting 260, 270, and then all of a sudden it's like, 18 home runs, batting 201. In baseball, it happens quick. And Robbie Canoe, you saw him go from a guy that was batting 300-something with a lot of home runs, but knocking at a ton of ribbyes.

He still ended his major league career, 17-year major league career batting 301. So he's still over 300. Great hitter. He was so slick and so good in his prime at second base that he got a lot of criticism. for being lazy. Because he looked lazy. He looked like he was playing lazy because he played so smooth and so effortless. Go, give me a year, like a prime year for Robbie Canoe as a Yankee or a mariner.

Give me like just a home run RBI average stat line. Like in like a Robbie Canoe All-Star year. I'm going to have to look it up because I was looking up his Mexico stats. Oh, you are in Mexico reference.com? I was on Mexico reference.com because that's where he played last. And that's why people think that he still got some. juice. If you don't know, he played in the Mexican League. And before that, I think he played on the SpongeBob SquarePants team.

And I'm not even making that up. Ooh, way to go, Kano. The point I was going to make was, hold on. But he lit it up in the Mexican league batting like 460 something or 430 something. And he was hitting bombs and he was on his major streak. So people were like, he's still got some juice. But Robbie Kanoe, yeah, his best years were with the Yankees for. sure. I got it right here. It took you too long.

Right, here we go. It wasn't long. I was telling you about the Mexican League. Robbie Canoe. A great example of a typical Canoe year. Let's say 2013 with the Yankees. His last year before he decided to go to Seattle. Before he went for the bag and ruined his career. 41 home runs.

I'm sorry, no. 29 home hold on, here we go. One second. I'm sorry. 27 home runs. 107 ribbies. That of 3.5.5. 314. The year before that, 33 home runs, 94 RBI 313. And then you go from that to, like you already referenced, I was going to say, you're playing on a minor league team on SpongeBob SquarePants Night. And there's like, you know, 600 people in the stands.

And they're like, yeah, that used to be Robbie Canoe. I love Robbie Canoe. To quote, you know, one of my favorite movies that you've never seen because you're too cool. Angels in the Outfield. Your boy Tony Danza. Remember the kid goes, you used to be Mel Kark? And he's like, hey, yo, kid, I used to be, I'm still Mel Kark. Hey, I know, oh, hey, oh, he plays the aging pitcher.

I'm still Melkark, oh. Great cast. I mean, how is it not? Danny Glover, Christopher Lloyd, Tony Danza? Kvino's too cool for that, as he would say, when did that come out? The 90s? I was too busy getting ass. I mean, it's true.

What if, Matthew McConaughey? Matthew McConaughey's in it. McConaughey plays center field. He gets lifted up and catches a ball. Monza, you know what else he hasn't seen? Mighty Ducks, you know why? Because I was too busy out chasing ass. Okay, I get that you were chasing ass back then.

You're not doing that now, so you can watch them now. I am. You already got the ass. So stop. You could have taken all these girls on a date to your home to watch these movies. I know. And then gotten what you want. You can watch them now.

With your daughter. Yeah, I would have. She doesn't want to watch sports games. She's scrolling on social media. Mighty Ducks is so fun. Classic. I mean, I made a Gordon Bob Bay reference recently, and he's like, I don't know what you're talking about. Iceland.

break up with him? But much like Mel Clark, I used to be Mel Clark. Robbie Canoe? Yeah, he used to be Robbie Canoe. And he also used to be on steroids. And he also used to make bad decisions for leaving the Yankees. What if some of his bombs in Mexico came off of Trevor Bauer? Did that change your mind? Oh,

that would be good. Did they ever, no, they never because Bauer's better than half the pitchers in baseball. According to Bauer, yeah. So based on this though, because there's a common thread going on, could Aaron Rogers

say, yeah, I'm going to continue as a broadcaster and host of sports jeopardy. All of a sudden, come back in the league if someone gets, gets hurt, can Tom Brady still play? Canoe still play? Because Cano said that today. It's pitchers and catchers. Everyone's talking baseball. Cano says that he could still play at a high level. He could play major league baseball.

What are, or are there other athletes that come to mind realistically, where you think, I bet they could still play? Dwight Howard comes to mind because the Lakers needed a big man, right? And he's always chirping, like, yo, Terrell Owens was always in the conversation because he kept his body fit. But now a lot of time has passed. I'm glad to said that because we're past the Kaepernick stuff. For years, T.O. was the guy where I was like, I remember thinking like, man, is he that much of a pain in the ass that no one wants to take a chance on him? Because remember he would show his own combine videos and he was ripped and he'd sleep in, you know, the chamber where he would reverse his aging.

and I thought Tio was the answer. Oddly enough, I made fun of them moments ago, but I really think, pun intended, I think Bartolo Colon could still eat innings. Maybe not now, but a couple years ago, Bartolo Colon is just a guy. Well, the question is now, but I never threw a hundred. I wouldn't downplay it because he had that rubbery arm,

and he's a crafty pitcher. You know, he probably still has some heat, because he's got a lot of weight behind it. So I wouldn't say no to that. How old is he? I mean, now, Spott. H, check me on Bartolo Colon. I know it's also your favorite fragrance.

Bartolo Colon. Colon by Bartolo. 51, Rich. I mean, obviously he can't do it now, but I really think, if you rewind a couple years, there was video of him like throwing BP, and Bartolo Colon was never a guy that overpowered you. He just threw 88 to 90 and knew where to place the ball.

who could still compete at a high level, if not professionally. Doesn't matter to the sport because even in the world of fighting, I don't know if you saw this, Rich, but Keith one time Thurman is saying he's making a grand comeback in 2025. You see it in fighting all the time because they get the itch and fighters never know when they're done. Yeah. You know, there's a guy that played for my team last year

and played for Monsie, you and Danny G's Dodgers. Is there any gas left in the tank for J.D. Martinez? He looked lost at the plate. Yeah, I was going to say, last year, I mean, I know he's adventuring into pickleball now, but J.D. Martinez, there were rumors like, yo, his veteran presence is so, he's a great clubhouse guy. Exactly. But there were times last year where I knew the pitcher was throwing an outside slider

and he would just chase and miss by five feet. Like, oh, I got a hot take, ready? Has anyone said this? Based on this conversation, I truly think Gronk could have been more productive if he played this season than Travis Kelsey. As lazy as Kelsey looked in the Super Bowl,

have you seen some of the tape of this dude? He wasn't even moving on half of those plays. There are some isolated. That's embarrassing, man. There's some isolated plays from the Super Bowl. It's the Super Bowl. There are some isolated plays from the Super Bowl that made Travis Kelsey look like he was the last guy

off the snap every time. not blocking for Mahomes. He's never been a big blocker. I've seen video on him before where... He's no George Kittle. Yeah, I mean, his M.O. is get down the field 15 yards and stand around kind of in wait for Mahomes to scramble and throw to you. You see him?

Like, throwing his hands up, like, I go, what? Yeah, he's looking lazy. And I'm not hating. I'm just stating. I like Kelsey. He was extra pouty as well as Mahomes was in the Super Bowl. And if you don't believe me, I didn't notice it during the game. Watch to tape.

There's a lot of clips that are surfacing on social. media and you're like, wow, that dude didn't even block anybody. And the guy he was supposed to block ended up tackling either the running back board Mahomes. You're like, damn. I know it's slow mo on Instagram or TikTok, but there are plays that they're showing where the ball is snapped. And he's a good, like, second behind everyone else as far as reaction.

And the defender is getting two steps before Kelsey's reacting. Like, gronky could have been. Gronky? More productive, I think. I think he could still play a little bit. Sucks when you don't have the refs on your side, huh? Yeah. Who else comes to mind? Fox Sports Radio Nation, 8779 on Fox.

There's a difference between he looks like he could still play and then really believing he could still play. Like, we just interviewed Drew Breeze. Dude looked like he could still play. He looked like he was in great shape. He looked young. What did he say to you? He said that he thinks he could

if he didn't have arthritis in his shoulder. He said the last year that he played, his football IQ, and he was giving himself props. He said, I can, He said, I could still play today. Mentally. Mentally. And physically, his whole body, he just said his shoulder, he's like, you know, anything beyond 30 or 40 yards.

He said, yeah. Just couldn't do it anymore. Even his last season, he was just, you know, short passes here and there. Couldn't throw it deep. Yeah, he said he couldn't throw past 45 yards. He said if everything was under 40 yards, he could be elite right now in the NFL. He said if he could, like, use his other arm, like trade his other arm because it's fresh, then he could definitely play. So who else do you think is sitting around?

that could still play. It's a good question. At a professional level. We'll take your feedback next. And by the way, we learned two months ago, it's not Mike Tyson. What is it? Did he hang enough to give you say,

oh, yeah, no. I mean, he's also 58. That's true. Right. All right, your thoughts at Covino and Rich. We'll take your feedback at 87799 on Fox. More next right here on Fox Sports Radio. Now, whether you're teeing off,

But this one's the one. extra special. 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. Well, 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 where people could call in and say, hey Jonas.

Is somebody coming after me? Jacob told Levan, you're ruining my life. Listen to Kingdom of Fraud on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games.

Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. These bell-bottom jeans I'm rocking are a little tight.

But they make my butt look good, right, Monty? Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. I don't know about you. That's not all that looks good. My algorithm is just Kendrick Lamar and Pink Pony Girl. By the way, Iowa Sam's been doing this dance since Sunday. And he's not alone. It's the most watched ever

halftime show of all time. Over 130 million people tuned in. Or hate it. So you get that? There was 126 million that tuned in for the Super Bowl. Highest rated Super Bowl ever, right? High stakes. That's what I attributed to.

NFL's growing. Swifties. Big game, big teams, high stakes. 126 million tuned in. 130 plus million tuned in to watch Kendrick Lamar. That doesn't mean it was awesome. But it means a lot watched. Yeah.

So you could love it. hate it, but what's undeniable is that 133 million people watch. That's a third of our country. Yeah, that's insane. Or more than that, I think. Right now is Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Sam's on the ones and twos. Danny's on the phones. Danny G. 87799 on Fox. And spots on standby waiting just to say hi.

Visit expresspros.com today and let us handle your hiring so you can focus on growing your business. You know what I got the feeling of, Kavino? I heard you got the feeling for the flavor. As we get to the phone calls, we're going to talk about those retired players, NBA, NFL, a lot to get to today. But as now a coach of, you know, my daughter's softball team and my son's baseball team. I thought you were the manager.

Make up your mind. When I say manager, you make fun of me. So what do you want? I want the truth, Rich. I'm the manager. Transparency. Yeah. So it's a bummer still.

I got that feeling of like, oh man, it's raining outside. Practice is canceled. Like today was supposed to be my son's first tee ball practice. And it's supposed to rain all week here in L.A. Did you cancel it? That also makes you the general manager. I had to be.

They said fields are closed today. Yeah, I'm the GM and the manager. And the coach? Wow. I'm just running things. That's awesome. Shout out to my buddy Jeff Supon. Former baseball pitcher is the guy that runs my kids pony ball.

Get him out there. What a league. They got Jeff Supon and the softball king of the valley, Rich Davis. I mean, how do you lose? You think Supon could still throw in the majors? You know, he looks trim and good for like you. He's in his mid to late 40s. No offense.

No Supon for you. He's been retired for a while. Go home, Sam. But you know what? That's what we're asking. Sam, play the rim shot. It's dead. Who do you think could make that sweet comeback and still be able to play and compete at a professional level?

There's a lot of stories in the news. We brought up Tom Brady. That's an obvious one. Aaron Rogers, if he were to retire, he'd be on standby for any team that would need him in an emergency. And there's always a star QB1 that goes down in the beginning of the season. He'd be the guy that would be able to jump in. Robinson can know as of today, pitchers and catchers. Robinson cano in the news saying that he could still play at a professional level.

He's 42 years old, though. Who else comes to mind? I told you in the world of fighting. Fighting! One time Keith Thurman wants to get back in the ring at that 140-pound division and compete with these young guys. Listen, one of my favorite fighters, not because I like him personally, because he was just exciting,

anytime someone says, oh, Connem or Gregor, I'm like, I don't want to see it anymore because... That's a perfect example. Father time, my friends. And I would never talk smack. I would love to see it, but I don't believe it at all. As far as I think he's washed, and I would love for him to prove me wrong. I would never say it to his face.

I'm a fan, but I don't think he could do it. Remember Joe Bimal was trying to do that? Yo, Joe Bimal, former baseball pitcher? Former Dodger, Danny. He was real close to making a professional comeback. He does baseball clinics for kids in high school and college and young pros. Joe Bimal in his early 40s was throwing more heat than he did in his big league career. And he actually got a minor league deal.

and I was hoping it worked out. Yeah, because there was new methods of training. He actually got bigger and stronger as a result, got more heat on his fastball. But again, Father Time 1, but he was real close to making it back to the big leagues after retiring. So who do you think just based on the eye test, I guess, and how people take care of themselves could actually still play.

I do think Gron could still play. He's in good shape. He's thinner now, but I think, you know, he could have still played if you wanted to. He could bulk up. Yeah. And by the way, let's bring it back to the original thought. and then Danny, I want to hear your thoughts and we'll go to the phones.

The original thought was yesterday. At length, we talked about where on earth could Aaron Rogers land? And it never dawned on us to think, well, maybe nowhere. He doesn't retire, but he, you know, chills out. And then inevitably, there will be a top-tier team that loses a quarterback due to injury and in comes Aaron Rogers to save the day. And Kavino's saying, will he be ready? And I think the answer is yes.

Yeah. Not too long ago, I remember seeing Marshawn Lynch being interviewed and he said he felt like he could still run over some players. That's so weird that you said that because that's who I had in my mind. I was in my mind. I was like, am I crazy to think Marshall Lynch can still go out there? We all thought it. I mean, we all felt each other. Do we feel it? Those last couple of seasons with the Raiders, he obviously wasn't as fast, but he still could bowl defenders over here.

That's what I'm thinking. It's like, I'm not expecting him to be quick, but I think he could be effective. By the way, you know, he's in a movie? Well, you know, he's got a lot of time. I saw him in a trailer or something for a movie. Either that or I dreamt it, guys. He's also got a podcast with Gavin Newsom. Well, hold on.

Does anyone listen to him? I don't know. I may have had the weirdest dream. But I'm pretty sure he's in a movie. I think we're all dreaming right now. What's what? What are we talking about? Marshawn Lynch.

I think he's been in several movies. What's more likely? To him play in the NFL again for anyone to listen to a podcast with him and and Gavin Newsome? He's a movie. Love Hurts. Love Hurts. That looks pretty good.

Love Hurts. Oh, yeah. There's a billboards off for it right now. That just came out last Friday. So I was ready. So he might be able to still play, but he's got a whole other career sort of taken off as an actor. Ain't that wild? Marshall and Lynch. So we'll wrap it up with your phone calls. Who do you think still has the juice? Roger. Hey, Raj. Vermont. You're on.

Hey, what's happening? What's up, buddy? I said Roger and you said, what's happening? How about that? What's up, buddy? Yeah, well, yeah. It's, yeah. Rod works. What up? So this is not really current, but I think into his late 40. Herschel Walker could have still helped the team

big time. Yeah, he was ripped and in shape. Yeah, he was trained, well, he fought in the UFC, right? That's right. He did, yeah. He was the answer to this question a decade or so ago. I was going to say like 15 years ago. He's like 60, 61. He kept himself in great shape. That's the thing. Not all athletes do, because they

live and eat the way they used to and they don't make those adjustments post their career and either get way out of shape or they just stopped lifting like Gronk did. What about a wide receiver? We said T.O., but I mean, after he retired,

Ocho Cinco still seemed like he was taking care of himself, doing, you know, media stuff. Do you think Ocho Cinco, a couple years later, if he wanted to, could have pushed? Or, because I feel like the end of his career, he was fading, even when he was on a team. I always got that vibe. Let's go to Joel and Cinty.

What's up, Joel? Hey, what's up, y'all? Hey, buddy. So one guy I think that nobody's talking about, pretty recent, and I think he would still ball out and probably be top five in his position at pro-level. Andrew Luck. Oh, yeah, if he wanted to take the chance. Yeah, he retired in his body didn't go through a full, you know,

full, full career of NFL play, so maybe he could come back. You made me think of, I don't know why. Does he have a belly now, though? I'm picturing Andrew Luck with like a belly. Yeah, but he had such skill. He was such a skillful player. What happened to Victor Cruz? Why did he retire?

Too much salsa dancing. Too much salsa dancing? I think heard a salsa dance instructor, isn't it? Isn't that sure? Yeah. You know, like, Gurley got hurt. I'm like wondering if one of these guys that were sitting around, like a Todd Gurley was sitting around, but then they realized, you know what, man,

I still could play. I rested off the injury or something. Some of these guys are so young. Man, some of them retire earlier. Like McAfee retired early to do a podcast. Victor Cruz retired early to do salsa dancing. I mean, he's only, Victor Cruz is only 38 now.

And he's been out of the league how many years? What's up, Nick and Cyncy? Oh, well, that dude was 147 when he retired. Jamie Moyer could collect Social Security and still pitch, I think. You know what's stuck around? I put them together in my brain, Darren Oliver. Remember how long that guy played? Darren Oliver.

That dude, I think he played. forever. I feel like Darren Oliver, if we were to play on the road again, I think Darren Oliver played for every major league baseball team. But Jamie Moyer, he looked like he was at least 55 when he was still playing. While you look up Darren Oliver, let's go to Moncey for an update. Balanos, what's up, Monse? Yeah. Yeah, guys, that's right. Thank you. Right on cue there. Chief Stein and Travis Kelsey on his podcast said that he knows everyone wants to know what he's going to do about his future, but that he's going to take some time, not going to rush his decision on whether who's going to return for a 13th NFL season.

Colorado quarterback Shador Sanders revealed that his first two top 30 visits with NFL teams will be with the Browns and the Giants who hold the second and third overall picks in the upcoming draft. Baseball just around the corner, Shohei Otani will not go on a rehab assignment or pitch in the Cactus League this spring before returning to pitching, keeping him available to DH. Yoshinobu Yamamoto likely will start the Dodgers season opener in Tokyo, and Roki Sasaki can make his debut the very next day. in game two. And in the NBA, Buckstar, Damian Lillard,

will be out for tonight's game against the Timber Waves to allow a full recovery. I'm sorry, who? Damian Lillard? No, no, the team? Buckstar? No, the other team. Minnesota?

Minnesota what? I'm going to keep saying all the words that are correct. Everything but the words. She stands around it. The timber what? Timber Wills? What? Wos?

I really don't hear it. Like, everyone tells me that I don't hear it. Where's your L? Where's your L. Wolves. Did you get confused or did you knew who I was talking about? Oh, okay, great. Thank you.

He's just being incredibly rude, Moncie. He does be petty, Rich. All the time. All the time, yes. Welcome to the club. Back to Covino. Thank you, Monty. I love you.

Happy Valentine's Mama. Happy Valentine's Day. Thank you. Let's watch the Timberwolves this weekend. It's Kvino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Live the Tyraq.com studio. Appreciate you hanging out. That's amazing.

We'll take the rest of your feedback at Covino, and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. I love you, Monce. Who do you think still has the Jews? who do you think could still play at a professional level because that's what Robinson Cano said today. And by the way, you're Darren Oliver. Yeah, he paid 20 years.

20 years in the bigs. And believe it or not, he had long stretches on teams and still played for nine different teams. I really thought the answer was going to be like 15. Because I feel like Darren Oliver was such your go-to middle reliever left-handy out of the pen for every team at one point. All right. Well, hey, we got more Kavino and Rich.

Danny G., Iowa Sam, Spot, the whole crew, even Monsey. We got more next right here on Fox Sports Radio. The average time to hire for most organizations is 30 to 45 days.

We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how did 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. 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. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

major to biggest stories in the world of sports and pop culture Are they midweek or major? We do it every hump day And again we're live from the Thai rack.com studio Covino and Rich. Everything at Covino Enrich And we still got lots of New Orleans videos and cool

clips to check out. It's also on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. You want to see it. No diggity, no doubt. And a big week for TV watchers. If you're like, what am I going to watch now?

That's the end of this week. And Danny G. Get Brenda ready. We're going back in the pods tomorrow or is it Friday Friday?

Friday I saw this. Brand new season of Love is Blind. Man, they keep just putting these out, huh? So Love is Blind, Cobra Kai final five episodes, and a new White Lotus. So if you need something to watch between now and, you know, baseball or...

Don't forget, it's going to be NBA All-Star Weekend. Look at that. So an action-pack weekend. And again, I'll never get commuter to watch shows that I recommend, but Danny J. Paradise. Really good. Good, really, really good. All right. Hey, coming up, Spots got Midweek Major, but there's a guy in the Yankees that it's possible, Kavino.

He could change everything. Yeah, change could start with one person, right? It always does. It always does. One person to stand up. And there's power in that. It could be a significant social change that affects the world forever. Like, I don't know, Rosa Parks on a bus.

Or it could be something as stupid as, like, someone at work decides, hey, how can we don't do our emails this way? And it's like, you know, maybe why don't we? Yeah, there's a change, everybody. Change whether it's big or small starts at one person. You've got mail. And I think that one person could be, as a Yankees fan, I really do think that one person could be Devin Williams.

Because, well, I'll explain. Pitchers and catchers have reported. So we get all excited about baseball. At least I do. I know everyone here does. Dodgers fans do. Post football blues. If you're not into the NBA, then you're like,

all right, baseball, let's go. Isn't it so funny when you do see some of your favorite big leaguers come back a little out of shape? Oh, yeah. And they get back at the shape real quick, but you realize that from September, October, through the holidays, there's some guys that put on five to ten pounds of a, you know, a little dad-bought action, and then, you know, by opening day they're good.

But I haven't seen some of the Mets. I'm like, well, what's going on with this guy? People, yeah, Juan Soto looks like he's six months pregnant. Stop it. I saw the pictures. More like Juan Bloto. Juan Bloto. Good one, bro.

I like that one. He's Vonbloto. You would like that. Good thing you didn't go home, Sam. He's going to be a soccer player. He is. He's definitely pregnant. But you're seeing players in a different uniform,

Verlander in his giant skier, right? Oh, wow. I'm just shocked that's the first time I heard someone say Wamblotto. That's a good one. I'm mad. I didn't think of it. A factory over here. But Devin Williams is known for being one of the best closers in baseball.

He's now a Yankee. Now, if you could picture Devin' Wolverton. Williams, he had a bit of that intimidation factor because he had a sweet beard. He had a nicely groomed beard that fit his face. I mean, completely intimidating other than when Pete Alonzo had a three-run home run off of him to send the Brewers home and have Bob Euker's last call before he passed away be terrible. That was a sad one too much.

I mean, Devin Williams. It wasn't like a hobo beard. It wasn't disheveled. It was very maintained. He looked handsome. He looked good. I'll be honest. Handsome dude.

Handsome Latino guy with a beer. And he said that he hadn't seen himself without the beard in years because he was being questioned, hey, when's the last time he shaved? He's like, I couldn't tell you. And he said he'd hold on to the beard for as long as he could until the Yankees made him shave it. Dave reported he shaved his beard and it's not good. And I saw him and I was like, do you! I couldn't believe what I saw. I'm like, where's the rest of his face?

Moncie, I just texted you the picture. Have you seen the before and after? It looks like he's missing. I'm not saying he's a bad looking guy. But the beard balanced out his face so much. It elongated his face a good three inches. I feel like he's missing three inches, four inches of chin. Yeah.

Right? It's like a baby boy. It's like a different person. Yeah, he looks like, he looks like a badass dude that you would not want to face. Now he's like a little alien fetus. And then you're like, oh, who's this new kid? Aw. He went from intimidating closer to, oh, is that the ball boy?

He looks like Mac and me. He looks like boss baby now. Yeah. So, and here's the, kicker. He's saying that, you know, the beard gave him confidence. And I know that sounds lame, but that's why I think this could cause a change and we'll explain next. Cavino and Rich. Hey, guys, it's us and 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 our first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it, but, you know, tired and sick. Tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
