And enjoy Cavino and Rich. I hope you didn't fall for any bad Fool's Day jokes, by the way. I'm going to die with a theory about April Fool's. I'm going to hit you with an April Fool's deep thought to kick off the show. Then we are going to get to Freddie Freeman and what is he doing in the shower? We'll get to that. Of course, Shaq Diesel, like you said. I hope he's scrubbing his feet because Rich doesn't.

Do you know that? No, I clean my feet. I don't scrub them every shower. He doesn't use any sort of washcloth, which I think is odd. I know you don't either, Danny Jay. I think it's weird. Because we both have rough manly hands. Yeah, right.

You put the shower gel on your rough hands and then you get your heel. Dude, you got to use a saccate, as my mom would say. Use a cicade, which is a lufa sponge. But Rich doesn't wash his feet. Freddie Freeman, I think, was washing his feet and something happened. We'll explain. My point was, you said you dance in the suds, you big liar. If you take a couple showers a day.

If you take a shower in the morning. How many showers you take every day? More than you, apparently. Well, he takes a few. I just take one. Okay, yeah. No, but I'm saying, all right, I was saying. Let me go to the gym.

Okay. If I wake up in the morning, I can't function without, you know, clearing out the head, taking a hot shower. And then if I go to the gym or, you know, go to the sauna at the gym or something like that, you think I want to lay in my bed with my wife with stank ass? No way. So I think that second shower, I don't think you need to scrub your feet twice a day. So I told Kavino once that I tiptoe in the sudzies. And, you know, now he thinks I'm gross.

This guy thinks you don't have to wash your feet. What a fool believes. Michael McDonald's style. We're broadcasting live from the tire rack.com studio. Tyrax.com.

established that, but let's kick it off before we get into game time and torpedo bats and how bad Raphael Devere sucks. Look, if you're having a bad day, just think about him right now. 15 for 19. No, he's 15 strikeouts at a 19 at bats. I mean,

can you get worse than that? Pretty bad. 15 strikeouts and 19 at bats. That's more than Tony Gwyn had in one season in 85 or something like that. No, you got to ask yourself, you've got to ask yourself, do you think you as a regular guy could really even do much worse than that? When a player gets that cold, their numbers are almost that of a regular dude. He doesn't need batting gloves.

He needs freezy freaky's because he's cold. Put a scarf on this dude. He needs to come up with earmuffs. He's so cold. In fact, in 95, as the meme goes. In 95, Tony Gwyn had 15 strikeouts and 585 at bats. Tony Gwynn was insane.

In 2025, Raphael Devers has 15 strikeouts and 19 at bats. In 23 played appearances. Yeah, I'm not hating the dude. I'm not hating on him. He's a great player. It's just a colossal meltdown historically bad. So if you're having a bad day, just know it's not as bad as that. No.

Now, I want to start with a quick thought about April Fool's. What's up, you fools? I think it's dead, and I'll tell you why. I think April Fool's Day and the whole concept of it is ridiculous that I'll tell you why. It's fun maybe for kitties, the kiddos. Listen, I'm thinking about tonight I'm coaching the girls softball team. I may show up with like wiffle balls and wiffle bats and be like, hey, the league says, well, you know, for safety reasons, this is what we have to use. I'm trying to think, like, could I play a little trick on the kitties?

That's fun, right? Yeah, like my, my sister, Grace, she is, she works with school kids, right? Like school teachers and everything. And one of the little kids said, hey, Miss Grace, I made brownies if you want one. And my sister actually fell for her. She's like, yeah, I would love one. Oh, do you put poop in her hands? No, it was just, they cut out brown e's.

Brown construction paper. Let her, let her ease in brown paper. And she's like, I got gotten. by little kids. So I think for like little kids is still fun because what's more rewarding than for a kid to like make someone laugh, right? That really builds their confidence. Like, oh man, I'm funny. So my sister thought that was cute for kids.

I think it's good. Yeah, he builds a kid's confidence is fun. It's not good for gamblers either. I zeld my bookie earlier today a whole bunch of money on Tiger Woods for the Masters. That's funny. That's funny. April fools. So what?

Look at it this way. I think April fools stink. and I'll give you the reason. Number one. You said it's over. It's over because, you know, no one's going to do a fake death. That's ridiculous. Fake pregnancies are insensitive to those that can't get pregnant or maybe had a miscarriage

recently. Can't do it. These are all inappropriate. Right. Yet it still happens. And, you know, any real, let's be honest, like terrible prank, no one's going to want to do it. The repercussions are bad.

Now, I think we live in a world now where. every day we're navigating this. It used to be once a year where it's like, oh, let's see we could trick someone. Now, every day I'm like, wait, is there something under the pyramids? Oh, I was tricked. I heard his Tobolone.

Danny, G. hit me up. Triangle chocolates. Last week, and he goes, yo, Brani scored 52 in the G league? Yeah, we didn't know because the stat looked official. It was like one of those official meme stat. There was a stat line.

Graphics, yeah. And I'm like, I'm not seeing this anywhere. Danny goes, oh, hold on, I just tricked. I got got got. I thought there was a torpedo glove in the works, based on the memes I saw. Did you see that? Which one of us are watching the G League each night?

Exactly. We don't know. So, yeah, you have to research all these stupid memes we see, even the stats. Yeah, everything, because you just don't know. So many times you're like, yo, do you see this fight's happening? And you're like, no, that fight's not happening. It's nonsense. So every single day, every single day you are navigating social media.

You're going on Instagram and your buddy will be like, yo, look at this girl I'm talking to. And you're like, yeah, dude, she's AI. You're an idiot. You're talking to a dude probably. So I think every day we are now accustomed to navigating the waters. Now, I don't want to be the guy that's like fake news. Not necessarily that.

Just a lot of nonsense on social media that you cipher through every day to the point that, what is April Fool's then? Just another day. Every day someone's out there trying to fool you. Maybe it makes April Fool's Day just more challenging. Like to catch someone off guard is even tougher as a result. but you're right I think

I don't even think it's that that killed April Fool's Day Rich if you're saying it's dead I think it's the fact that people started doing like death announcements and fake pregnancies

and birth announcements and things like that the fact that it became like sort of low brown insensitive sort of ruined it for everybody and it made you question

the rules of it I really think when you're a kid like you said it's fun and now that we're grownups you realize not that they're either mean or again

maybe he's alive and why he's alive and well with kids. I think it's a kids holiday. Yeah, every day as an adult. Like May Day. Like little May baskets, you know? Who else does that?

You guys just all made me realize the reality of it. Adults deal with so much BS on a regular basis. So many fools. I was going to say, I don't have time for people trying to trick me. And I also, if you do trick me, I'm going to punch you in the nose. Like, I don't got time for you to be playing tricks. And most adults, most adults in distress, trying to pay their mortgage, looking at their bank account, you know, picking their kids up a dance class

to go to softball to go to baseball, cooking dinner. You think they got time to be tricked? You know what would be cool, though, if you just subtly drop something like, yo, Rich. Yeah, man. We're going to talk about Woody Johnson later.

By the way, did you hear about the show Paradise? Dude, you believe they canceled season two? Those are fun. No, no, no. And just let it sit. Yeah. And Rich repeats it to someone else. God here.

Enrich, morning shows. I liked it when I was hosting morning shows on hip hop radio stations. People aren't thinking about the date when they first wake up. So on morning shows, you could get people and kind of do it subtle too. I remember. But social media is such a reminder all the time.

It's hard to forget. Yeah, true. Well, this, right before social media was a big deal, I remember pulling a stunt where I told my morning crew, I say, here's what we're going to do. And I had the turntable guy in on it, too. I said, no matter what song we're playing, let's come back and announce it as a different artist and just all be in unison. So Ashanti would be on the air and we'd come back and we'd.

be like Q104-7, it is 648 a.m. And right there was some rock Kim, classic old school. And we did it for every single song. People were losing their damn minds. The phone lines were little. What's going on? Is this voice? Like, they lost their minds.

And then, you know, as the morning went on, people thought about the date and the calendar. Oh, I see what they're doing. So the question is, has social media ruined April Fool's Day? Is it over? Because every day's April Fool's Day. We're always trying to trick somebody. We're always getting tricked.

There's always fake articles and fake news. Or is it just something that was and always is and always was for the kids? Danny, during the NFL draft buildup, during the NFL free agency, how many times when we send each other memes do we have to double check because it might just be like a funny meme someone made up? Like, oh, Aaron Rogers signed here. And you're like, you know who does this all the time?

My mom will send me something like, Richie, did you see who's on the Raiders now? I'm like, Mom, oh, you? No. There are a lot of fan websites now for different NFL teams, and they report stuff that they're hoping is going to happen, but it hasn't happened. Yeah, that is so bad. I hate it,

and I quickly unfollow those sites. Yeah, and there's a graphic that goes along with it. It's so misleading for everybody. Have you seen the fake graphics about your team having a Netflix movie or show? Oh, yeah, they have done that for just about every team right now. Yeah, Danny's exactly right.

all these trade rumors. You're like, that's not happening. Yeah, and you go on the comments. He's got Nolan Aaronado. I don't know they did it. Yeah, you read the comments too, and people are so mad. They're like, erase, delete this account now. Oh, it's worse.

So, yeah, you're right, Rich. That does put a little damper on the old April Fool's Fund that we used to have. Not so much a damper. I'm just saying, we deal with this every day. So it's like, like this morning. Do you see what President Trump did? This is interesting. He's doing a lot with the tariffs.

You could be a fan. You could hate the guy. I don't care. This is just the news, though. Donald Trump pushed back all his tariff stuff till tomorrow because he wanted there to be no confusion. He actually said, I don't want to do this on April Fool's Day because you don't want to leave anything possibly up in the air like, oh, is that true or not? So he actually pushed all those things till tomorrow. You are fake news.

Yeah, forget about him. What about former President George Bush who said, fool me once. Shame on you. Fool me twice. Can't get fooled the game. You can't get fooled again. I mean, one of the best quotes. Shame on you.

It fool me. We can't get fooled again. I've always said that. I've always said, can't get fooled again. So, hey, I think you're onto something, Rich. Every day we're navigating these stupid waters. So maybe the fun spin on it is it's even tougher to get people with their trained eye in 2025. You know, back when we were kids,

The only thing that you questioned, like, I don't know if that's real is when you'd be at the supermarket or at your grandma's house, and she would have, like, those magazines like The Sun, and it'd be like, Wolf Boy, that was the only trickery of the 80s and 90s. My grandma's Mexican news, they discovered Bat Boy every two weeks. Tabloids. Bat boy. Color tabloids. It was tabloids in line of Chop Rider Wegman's around. The Sun. The mirror of the Sun.

All those. But Sam, that's our every day when we're scrolling on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook. We are now scrolling through the mirror and the sun and all that in just the current form. So when April Fool's Day comes around, I'm just like, another day. I saw some, like, transfer portal news on Twitter, and I'm like, I don't even know if I should believe this on today. Like, just wait.

See if other people pick it up. I even saw, like, Adam Schaefter reporting on some stuff. And I'm like, he's above this, right? Like, I don't even know if I should be believing. The real people. I think what you should do just to get one of your buddies is to drop some stuff that you know they're bound to repeat, but don't tell them it's fake. And don't make it real, like, big news because then the big news is obvious. Like, you're right.

Yeah, dude, Raphael Devers. Yeah, man, they said he quit and he's working at Starbucks now. No way. No, for real. Says he couldn't take it anymore. Yeah. And you guys, I think you talked about this last year, if not the April Fool's prior to that. Your friends got you by saying, oh, my God, did you mean to post that?

Oh yeah, forgot about it. I remember we were in the other studio. This is a great April Fool's. You know what? I endorse this one. So for all the BS you're seeing, this is a really good one. Because, again, harmless and it's really fun. It makes the person panic.

Text all your friends, right? And just text them the following. Yo, dot, dot, dot. Did you mean to post that? What are you talking about? Everyone's butthole. Yeah. Everyone you know their buttholes get a crunch like,

they start checking their Facebook, their Instagram. What do you mean? I checked all my pages. I forgot about that, Danny. See, it's still alive and well. You just got to be crafty. Danny, that's the one. And you know what?

I'm going to do that to everyone I know during this next break. And I'll report, you know, let's see how we do. All right. Well, hey, speaking of April Fool's being dead or not, it is alive and well with kitties. But were you hoping Danny G. And all the Dodgers fans that when you heard the Freddie Freeman news that it was an April Fool's joke. You had to be hoping like,

that can't be real. I hope it's not that bad because apparently he got hurt in a freaky deke. I don't know if it was a creepy dee embarrassing. No, like a freak accident. You know, in a weird way in the shower. And we're going to discuss what happened to Freddie Freeman, what happened to his ankle and more embarrassing injuries here on the show. All right. So start thinking about him. More. Kavine on Rich. You. April fools. Coming up right here on Fox Sports Radio. Tires Matter.

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.

caveat don't you call me an idiot your whole stance is like it's over meanwhile the whole time instead of going over what we're discussing he's like laughing to himself because he's pranking everybody it just proves the maturity of our show I know so while social media on a day to day

essentially is April fools because it's all just nonsense oh aliens Kavina bro it's fake You see what's under the pyramids? Every day we're getting bamboozled. So April Fool's is no different. However, there is one prank that remains. And Danny G, thanks for reminding me of my own prank.

We did this a couple years ago, and I redid it, and I still got people. I almost got my wife. She's like, what? You just text people in your life. Yo, did you mean to post that? Everyone, my buddy Mike just hit me up. He goes, what, where? He was the honest way to pick up his kids.

And it wasn't a joke as far as what happened last night or over the weekend. I'm not sure when it happened. I just know that Freddie Freeman didn't play yesterday. Freddie Freeman missed the Los Angeles Dodgers series opener against the Braves on Monday for a rather unexpected reason. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters that Freeman had a little mishap, a little mishapy, getting into the shower, which caused his surgically repaired right ankle to swell a little bit. So that's the really downside of the story.

And so the Dodgers only, the Dodgers only won six one. Exactly. I know. Well, you know, Freeman to start the season has been on a roll. Oh, yeah. So it was bad news going into the game. And you don't want any previous injury to be reagravated, right? So let's talk about it.

I know you, Rich, have a few shower stories of your own, but embarrassing injuries. And like I said, the fact that he re-injured this is what makes it a bad story. We hope he comes back. We hope he's all right. I'm a Yankees guy, but I don't want to see Freddie Freeman, you know, hurt. We don't know how long he's out for, right? They're letting him recoup a little bit and they're going to see. I haven't heard any updates yet, Danny.

Day to day? It's day to day. So he always wants to play. We know that. We saw that in the World Series. But how hurt is he? Who knows? But he slipped.

So let's get to your phone calls down. And truthfully, whatever I hear today, I'm not going to believe anyway. I know, right? 87799 on Fox. We got Danny G on standby. We got Iowa Sam with all your favorite Fool songs on this Tuesday. He's on the ones in twos. We got Dan Byer and Spotty.

Tell us the story that you told me. Wait, weren't you on vacation? I was. Were you trying to get all romantic? If there's kids listening, I was in the shower with an ex-girlfriend because we were scrubbing each other down because I could have reached my back. You were saving water. Yeah, set in other's feet.

You're scrubbing each other's feet? Yeah. So I remember my ex was like, let's go in the shower. And in my mind, I'm like, oh, someone's always cold. It's the wrong type of wet. There's so many wrong things about the shower. It's usually the guy that's cold. As I'll take Camino's joke.

You know those like shower gloves your your girl has like to scrub herself? Kavino's like he puts those long as he's cold. Yeah, we talked about how your wife uses a Keith Hernandez glove, remember? Yeah. So. Oh, yeah, yeah. So someone's always cold. It's the wrong type of wet.

The circumstance, it sounds like, you know, hot and sexy. Never fun in the shower. But I'm on vacation. I'm in my 20s. I was with an ex. And I must have pulled to Freddie Freeman because I was like, I slipped and

you know the faucet where before you go to the shower to fill up the tub that faucet at the bottom I fell and scraped my whole back like up my back

and I'm bleeding from my back and I'm trying to decide like do I continue like what do I think we're going to call this a day but till this day I have a scar on my back

and it's from a failed. Oh, I thought that was a tramp stamp. No, that was just from a failed attempt at shower-loven. I thought it was a butterfly tattoo right above your ass crack. Nope, nope, that's not what it is. Oh. So it's next to the butterfly tattoo next to your ass crack. It's right above.

Wow. Yeah, I remember that, though. I remember Rich had like his back bandaged and he told this story of like this failed moment of romance and, you know, that's what makes the story even funnier is because you were trying to be all sexy about it. and then something goes wrong like that. Remember the movie Van Wilder when he oils up the girl? And they catch on fire and he like slips off or out the window or something?

Dude, I actually have a similar thing. I was trying to get a romantic my college days. And what did you really know about romance, right? Like lighten a candle? So I was trying to let a can't. And I dropped all the hot wax all over me. And I was like, ah! And my fingers started blistering up.

And the girl's like, I think I'm going to leave now. No, I'm fine. And I'm like, no, it's okay. My finger like sizzled and melted away. And I remember like being in so much. pain and she did leave. Swear to God, true story, which made it even more embarrassing. But that's what we're getting at. Like, your stupid, embarrassing injuries based on Freddie Freeman. And it doesn't have to be in the world of sports, but you hear him all the time. Wasn't it Kevin

Brown who punched the wall, right? There's been a ton of these freak injuries in baseball. Yeah. Oh, baseball especially. But you hear about them in sports all the time. It could be in your own personal life. I remember I was, I was like a early teen, like 13 years old. old maybe, right? Oh, so the same size you are now? Same size I am right now, hitting bombs. And, you know, I was playing around in the backyard and dad was doing some sort of like, I don't know, working on the patio or something.

And it was all these planks of wood just laying there. And what do you do when you see, like, little bars of wood? You just like try to balance on it, right? La la la la la. I'm trying to... Well, you're a huge Mary Lou Retton fan. I was a huge gymnast guy back in these days, you know, and I was trying to do

my best balancing act. And dude, sure enough, I'm walking just on, just just daydreaming. Like, who cares? I'm just walking in the backyard. And I'm walking on this piece of wood. And I stepped dead on it. The nail went right through the shoe.

Right through my shoe and threw my foot. And I had to pull it out. Like, like, ah! Like your Marr from home alone? Yeah, it went right through my foot. But why, though? Because I was an airhead or a balloon head.

Just like floating around in my backyard, bouncing on his piece of wood like I'm Mary Louretton. And I went right through my foot, dude. I remember a story. I remember a story, Kavino, you told about. your dad, big Steve. Oh, it's the best story. You're lucky your dad didn't die.

This is the best one. So I got to tell it. Thanks for reminding me. Again, same backyard. Freak accidents. That's what we're talking about. Same backyard. My buddy Gus was over the house.

Part of the story. And my dad was by the grill. Everybody remembers their dad by the grill. Getting ready to cook something for you and your buddy. He's like, hey, hey, Gus, would you want a hamburger? Gus, like, yeah. How do you like it cooked? Meanwhile, parents never care.

They cook it the same way every time. So my dad's chopping the hamburger meat and he's trying to get the hamburger patties, I guess, separated. And all of a sudden, dude, he's just chopping away with the knife. And all of a sudden, I hear, ah! And I'm thinking, April fools? What's going on? He's like, ah, ah, ah. And no one sees their dad, like, cry or acting this way ever, right?

So I'm like, I have to be like 14, 13 years old. I'm looking at him. Me and my buddy Gus is like, what's going on? He's like, ah, ah. And, dude, he goes stumbling down the tribe. I wait bleeding everywhere because he stabbed himself in the leg while chopping the meat. So he's chopping the meat and slipped, boom, stads himself right in the leg, bro. And I'll never forget that because I thought he was messing around.

Like when you see your dad reacting that where you're like, Dad, you're kidding me right now. You know, you've probably at some point will hurt yourself trying to do something for your kids. I remember I got a wiffle ball stuck in a tree. I don't know how, but you know, like a full tree, wiffle ball gets stuck up there. I go, dad, he goes, hold on. Oh, I got it, Richie. And my dad was wearing flip-flops, or as he called them in the 80s, thongs. Your dad wore thongs before Cisco made him cool.

So my dad's wearing all my thongs. I'm like, Dad, don't call them that anymore, please. Your dad thinks to Cisco song is about his shoes. Oh, I'm not showing off my sexy thongs. My dad in flip-flops, I'm sorry, thongs, jumps up to get my wiffle ball out of the lands and turns his ankle. And he was mad at me, like, you son of a man, because of you and your stupid

wiffle ball. And my dad's, you get from wearing fongs. My dad's ankles all taped up because he tried to get the wiffle ball. But when it comes to sports, I have a few I want to throw out there, but let's get the phones going, the most interactive show on Fox Sports Radio. April Fool's Day. We're talking about

foolish behavior. The weird freak injuries, a la. Freddie Freeman, missing a couple games because he slipped in the shower. Sammy Sosa sneezing. We've all heard this, right? Yeah, it's a famous one. And because we all know that feeling where you're sort of holding a sneezing or not, but a matter, my neck, like his neck, right?

My neck and my back. I feel's me, yeah, he was out for a while because of that. When I was a little, I think he pulled a neck muscle or something in the mid-s-s-snees. When I was a little, when I was a little kid growing up on the East Coast in the 80s and 90s. everyone remembers this, but it was a big, big story back east when Bobby Ohita cut his finger off with hedge clippers by mistake. Why would Bobby O'Hoodie be trimming his own hedges and bushes at his yard?

But do you remember that story? Bobby O'Hater. Totally. Cuts his finger off. Totally remember that. Let's get involved. April Fool's Day, 87799 on Fox. These are true stories we tell, though.

We're not messing around. and it all is from the Freddie Freeman story of him re-injuring his ankle that he had surgery on slipping in the shower. What up, D.B. I don't know if you guys, I mean, we're of the same age, but I knew a lot of older guys who were missing a digit or two. Like my uncle, it was not, and I felt like it was more common. My grandfather had nine fingers. My grandfather's fingers were all mangled, too. He was a butcher.

Yes. So his fingers were all sliced and butcher. up and weird looking. My uncle Harry did not have all ten fingers. I don't be eight or nine, but I know he didn't have ten. My grandfather was missing his left pointer and know what the answer was. This is how people operated

so differently. 1930s in Brooklyn. Him and his brother were chopping wood. His brother cut his finger off. And I remember asking him like, Grandpa, what did you do with the finger? He goes, oh, we threw it out. Like you threw it out? Oh, yeah. We told him. Just threw it out.

And his brother ran away from home because he was scared. So his brother ran away for a week. And he's like, oh, no, nine fingers. Dan Byard, that's such a funny observation. Really? The loss of digits was like, you know, so much more kind of. I had an uncle, like, Uncle Carl who was missing a digit. Yeah, right?

And he was, like, he worked with cars, but the rumor was that he kind of, I think he did collections. Sure. So I think something happened. I think he still. Somebody shouldn't have. One of my. A hood land on your finger or something. One of my best buddies growing up.

The Celtics didn't cover. His dad. One of my best buddy's dad. was missing a finger, right? And my family happened to be there when it happened. It's just a small world sort of thing. The families grew up together. And his dad was running his finger, his hand,

across a chain link fence. And the ring got caught in the fence and ripped his finger off. And he had to get it removed. Wait, was he on a car or something? No, I just running with his hand going across the fence. Very sensitive fingers. Yeah, dude, I have no idea how it happened. But I know my buddy's dad had a finger.

missing. So think about more freak injuries, especially in sports. Like Rich said, there's plenty of stories in sports that we can get to. And we just hope Freddie Freeman's eye, even though the Dodgers are just fine. But first, oh, they all they might, I just saw the research. They might only win 122 games this year if he's out a few more. Yeah, yeah. Dan Byer, what's going on, my friend? Never stopped him from smoking, though, right? You know, like, it doesn't matter how many digits. We're, we're going to, we're going to make that work. In the car, too, at the wind. does up. The NFL had a lot of newsmakers today, especially when it comes to the rules.

Tush push, that's been pushed to May. No decision has been made on the play made famous by the Philadelphia Eagles. They talked about it for about 30 to 40 minutes. 16 teams reportedly against the Tush push. More conversations coming up in May. Hey, Dan, can I ask you like a really dumb question? I watch football every week just like everybody else. Aside from the pylon aspect of what's happening? Like, what's the big risk? Like, why is this such an issue in the world of football? I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. If you want a really good follow-up, I'll promote one of the other shows here on Fox Sports Radio. I was very pro-push-tush until I saw LeVar Arrington, so to give his angle on it and being a former football player. Yeah, because everybody

could do it if they have the right players. That's one angle. So it's like, well, then what doesn't everyone do it? More about not just the pylon, like, the integrity of like, the offense or his defense. Like, once a running back, his forward progress has stopped. That's the end of the play. That's football. So when you just get guys pushing and pushing, it sort of takes away almost like the integrity of the play. I like that more than like is it, where's all the injuries?

Is it really that big of a deal? Because we don't see it that often. Yeah, this was the commissioner's messaging earlier today. There are safety issues that are being considered in that case. We have very little data from it. So there you go. Here's just weird about it. Pylons happen all the time. What about

people running full speed at each other in kickoffs? That's not like an injury risk. That's why I don't get it. But what Rich just explained here makes more sense to me. There's more to it than that. All right. Thank you. I thought, honestly, when you started, when you said pylons, I thought you meant like pylon cam in the orange things

that are in the end zone, but you were saying pile on. Yes. Yes. Just stop those two guys from pushing Jalen Hertz in the back and then it's just a normal quarterback sneak, which nobody is saying should be banned. Right. Okay. Touchback on the kickoff is going to be moved out to the 35 yard

line. Both teams, by the way, and regular season overtime games will get the football but still just a 10 minute session. Line to game measurements will be made by Hawkeye Technology. Bye-bye to the chain gang. And then the Lions proposal to receive the playoffs was also tabled until their May meetings. A couple of other NFL notes. Niners owner Jed York admitted the reason they let 17 players go from last year's team was because of the contract.

They planned to give quarterback Brock Purdy. Jeffrey Lurie, the Eagles owner hinted out a contract extension for Nick Siriani. defensive Laman Callais Campbell signing a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals. And there will be three games on Christmas Day this season. Christmas falls on a Thursday. First two will be on Netflix. The nightcap will be on Amazon. Maryland expected to hire Texas A&M's Buzz Williams as their next men's basketball coach.

Metz shutting down pitcher Sean Minia for two weeks. Sorry, Rich. Back to you guys. I know. I was hoping that was an April Fool's, but it's not. You know what, Mets are doing just fine. Looking good yesterday, you saw my dude polar bear Pete Alonzo with a Apo Grand Salami?

Yeah, and you didn't want him. Played every game last year, and you had this guy in the fence. I never said that. I like him. Over the fence with a bomb. Good for him. Well, hey, we got all your phone calls and feedback next. April Fool's Day, freak injuries.

Freddie Freeman slipped in the shower. So let's go over some of your favorite, some of the weirdest ones, all next. Right here, Fox Sports Radio. I've fallen and I can get up. 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 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 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. 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.

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 win. I mean, she went down at three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me.

You can watch it. Watch the show. on show. Do it. On Fox Sports Radio's YouTube. Again, over promised with Kavino and Rich. Now Freddie Freeman out for a few days. We don't know the severity of the injury. We just know it was a little mishap that

he slipped in a shower and re-injured the surgically repaired ankle. You guys remember him hobbling around last year. Of course. His swing is still mint, but his foot's a little jacked up. So other crazy embarrassing sports injuries or just injuries that you remember.

I got three, but I'm going to the phone. Yeah. Let's, uh, Let's save him, see if anyone else hit some. Boise and Caleb, you're on with Kavino and Rich. What's up, man? Hey, what's up? How are you guys doing? We're good, man. What's on your mind? What up, man?

All right. First time, I got two for you, and they're both involving holidays, which makes them that much more unfortunate. So Scotty Sheffler got glass shards in his hand, making Ravioli on New Year's. Oh, terrible. Missed the first major, I believe. And then secondly, it's Jason, Pierre Paul, the football player. He blew some fingers off with a firework. accident on the 4th of July.

He is the prime example. I remember always being like, how could he, an NFL player, be the guy that holds fireworks? Totally remember that, but he made me think of, didn't Derek Rose cut his fingers slicing an apple or something like that? And he was out for a little while. Did he have an avocado hand? Remember that whole thing? He just suffered from far more

severe injuries that people forget about that. Do you know that's a thing, Sam? At emergency rooms, there's avocado hand. Where people, when they're trying to make guack or slice an avocado, they put in their palm slip and the people go into the hospital with a slice in their palm and most of the time it's some idiots trying to slice an avocado. All right, Dave, Virginia, what's up? Yeah, hey guys, first time caller.

When I was a college sophomore, I broke a wrist sleeping. Sleeping? That's like getting fired on your day off. Yeah, well, so when you're on the, when you're in the dorm, they would sell you this kit. They would turn the two bunk beds in the dorm into two. like upper bunks. You're like six feet off the floor and I went to sleep one night rolled out of bed, fell six feet to the tile floor,

and broke my wrist. That does suck. That sucks. Thanks, Dave. Andy in Montana. What's up? Andy. Andy. Hey. What up, Andy? But then again, though, think of all the room for activities he had. What's up, buddy? That's funny. You guys are awesome. Hey, man, just letting you know you got a lot of fans here in Great Falls, Montana. Oh, thanks, man. Keep, what's a great work. All right, this was a dumb one.

years ago, me and my buddy get done unloading his pickup truck, and I'm leaning up, I'm doing the drunky lean up against his tailgate, and unbeknownst to me, he starts to raise the tailgate, got me up on my toes, so needless to say, three days later after frozen bees, every day.

You got that's a killer wedgy right there. You ever seen that video with a girl? She's trying to be all sexy, like posing in a tree, and she falls, but the tree holds on to her bathing suit bottom. And she's like, oh! I mean, it's a million I mean, I'm sure you've seen that.

Yeah. I'm thinking of one in particular. Let's go to Nate Dog. What's up, Nate? Oh, hi. What's up, bud? Hey, guys. What's going on?

Hey, buddy. Yeah, I had one when I was about 15. My dad was building in the garage, my sister's bedroom. And my girlfriend was come picking me up, and that was the first time they met. And he comes out of the garage with a nail in all three of his, and three of his fingers. Oh. Every time I think of a nail on someone, you're a picture of Mr. Larson from Happy Gilmore.

The nail on his head. So funny. The nail on his head. Same guy who played a Jaws, right? Yeah. From the Bond movies. Yes. But again,

I have three that you're going to want to hear for sure because I think they're my favorite ones. They're horrible. They're horrible, but they were freak injuries. But do we have time for one more phone calls? Let's do two phone calls. And then we'll take yours to cap off this great April

Fool's conversation. Tripp, what's up, Vegas? You gentlemen, I was the privilege to listen and talk to you. Thanks. I got two. Remember when Jeff Kent was sitting, he was cleaning his truck, the Washington truck, and his popping wheelies, that came out. Yeah.

That's how he got hurt. And then the second one, this was a lady I worked with at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. She was on medical ease, and she came in one day, and we heard she's in bad access. She had both of her hands in casts, and we said, what happened? She said, I was using a miters saw, and I cut the tips off my left fingers. He was like, well, how'd you do the other side? She said, my husband came to help me and wanted to know how I hurt myself. I showed him, and she did it again.

Oh, my goodness. That's the worst. Wow. We'll take Kavino. Well, I want to hear your top three. We'll take some more feedback. And we'll move along. Talk some NFL.

Talk some NBA. A lot of fun here. April Fool's here on Fox Sports Radio. Kavino and Rich. 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. We're the 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.
