Full name, Steve Elombramaswapo, Covino. That is rich. Dickie Doodle Davis. We got Danny G on the phones at 87799 on Fox. Iowa, Sam. Always great to see you. No, I love some tractor supply. What do you love? I mean, I'm from Iowa. Going there and spend that one day. What does your family grow? Anything from arugula to zinia? Nice. Wait, arugula? Arugula, yeah.

It's a vegetable. The vegetable. Name the movie. I don't know. Sir, are we missing anything here? Yeah. Arugula. What's a roguer?

It's a vegetable. If you don't know, you know what? 87799 on Fox. I will be generous enough to give away a swiggy for the first person that knows that movie. First person that knows that movie, Arugula. It's a vegetable. I know Lowencrone knows. He's on your update spot.

He's getting ready for midweek major. And Rich, while we get ready for the phone calls, do you know it's Shohei Otani MVP bobblehead night for the first 40,000 people at the stadium today? So major, major traffic jams and people freaking out to get to Dodger Stadium. I was going to go to the Apple store right next to Dodger Stadium. No way. True story.

I left COA in his stroll. for a place in line this morning. I hope the people behind me are pushing it. Yo, did you know, again, ADD Radio at its finest? Did you know a dad got arrested? He went to run an errand and he left his kids at the McDonald's playplace. He went for a job interview or meeting and he's like, no one will know.

He just dumped his kids at the McDonald's like ball pit and he thought no one would notice. That's what our moms used to do with us at Toys R Us. That's true. Hey, look around for a while. I'm going to go to Caldor. So, hey, drive safe. and look out for stories later on because I'm predicting, you know, we're talking about ruined moments.

It's supposed to be a nice family night. I think some fights. There's going to be throwdowns, you know, people for these bobbleheads. Yeah, it's the first 40,000, and these are so exclusive. One of the reasons why a lot of people save one from their family, and then they'll sell, they'll resell the other for triple the price of what it should cost. We'll keep you posted on that. But speaking of baseball,

and ruined moments, all because Westbrook, he ruined a great game with a weak-ass foul. He ruined Yokic's triple double. He ruined Yokic's 61 point night because the nuggets ended up losing. Other ruined moments in the world of sports and life. Now, Rich, you mentioned Andy Chavez's catch. It's forgotten because the Mets lost that series. So a ruined moment. If they were to won, that would have went down like you said as one of the greatest catches of all time.

I have a story that happened in 2001 in the world of sports. 2001. And I'll tell you that right after the phone calls. You know what? Before we get to the phone calls about ruined moments, do we have a winner for who knew the Arugula reference? The first one to get in on that, Mike in Ohio. Yo, Mikey, what's up, man?

What movie? The following quote, are we missing anything, sir? Arugula. What's Arugula? A vegetable. What's a movie, Mike? My cousin, Denny. No.

Good guess. My cousin Vinnie not the answer. Good guess, though. Go to the next line here. Who's calling? Yo, it's Fox Sports Radio. Who's this? This is Jason.

Where are you calling from, Jason? I'm calling from Springfield, Missouri. Got an answer to Rich's question? What movie? He is one of my all-time favorites. It is My Blue Heaven. My Blue Heaven. Steve Martin is in the, like, Witness Protection Program.

He's like Henry Hill, basically. Yeah, I have seen that. And he's, you know, know, the guy, his parole officer, I guess, is Rick Moranis, great 80s movie, and he goes to a supermarket in the middle of nowhere. Think about it. He's like a New York, East Coast Italian guy. He's a mobster.

Yeah. And he goes to the supermarket, and he's looking for a Rulgola. Congratulations, brother. Hang on the line. We'll send a Swigie out to you. I got mine from that movie when they ask him what's truck. He says, in case I want to read it more than once. It's the best line.

It is. Sir, you have 39 copy. Whatever. What if I want to read it more than once? All right. Ruin moments. Kavino, want to go to Matt in Alaska? I want to tell my story. Tell me your story.

And then Matt can stand by. So Maddie, Matt and everybody else, 87799 on Fox. We're getting to your phone calls. Other ones that come to mind, sports or personally, in 2001, you remember the Yankees' nightmare. I think the world for the first time was pulling for the Yankees to win the world series. It was a rough year. 9-11 just happened. Yankees got a chance to win it all.

Alfonso Soriano hit a go-ahead home run off for Kurt Schilling in game seven against the Diamondbacks. And the Yankees brought it up last night. Paul O'Neill was talking about it last night. Yankees are playing the Diamondbacks as we speak. And even he said, like, that home run, had they won the World Series,

would have gone down as one of the most historical go-ahead home runs in World Series history, Alfonso Soriano would have forever been a Yankee legend. But they went on. Meanwhile, people forget he was the Yankees sometimes. People forget, not only that he was Yankees, like they forget this moment because they want to forget the fact that the Yankees lost.

It was a nothing burger. What could have been the most heroic moment ever is almost forgotten completely. Not to rub it in being that you're a Yankees fan. Take me back. years. Are we mid-game late innings? When did Soriano hit this bomb? I forget what inning it was. It was, yeah, again, you're trying to forget.

I got the facts here, though. Crucial game seven. Soriano hit an 0-2 pitch from Schilling, giving the Yankees the lead. And eventually they lost the game. Eighth inning. Okay. And it was, I think they went three, two or something like that ahead.

The Yankees, two-one. Went ahead, two-to-one. Your facts about your own team. That's what I hit about Yankees fans. They win so much. They're like, I don't know the details. It was just another year. Well, I'm proving the point, too. These are moments that you forget because they were unimportant to you as a fan.

It's a ruined moment. What could have been and should have been a historical moment for Yankees fans ended up being ruined by Gonzo's weak-ass blooper. That was the best weak-ass hit I never seen. I get it. There's two sides every story. For the Diamondbacks, man, you got the best of Mo Rivera with a bloop single. What would he do? and they win, but that moment, which was, I remember the moment, obviously, like, no way, Soriano.

And everyone's cheering going wild. They lost forgotten. That's like one of the most forgotten moments. So forgotten fans even forget. And for real, that's like the truth. I mean, you're asking me the score in the moment and everything else. I don't forget the moment, but I don't try to relive that day. I don't try to relive that game seven.

I just know in my head and my heart that Soriano was this close to becoming. A hero. A hero. John in Idaho Falls. What's up, John? The tuck pool game with Charles Woodson and the fumble hit on Tom Brady. That was a great moment. And they took it back with the tuck rule.

Raiders would have went to the Super Bowl or advanced, right? Yeah, well, they had a Super Bowl caliber team. They would have advanced in the next round. And by advancing to the next round, that Raiders team had a trajectory of winning. Keep in mind, they were like a year removed from being in the Super Bowl. So that Raiders team got the short end of that Woodson. it would have been, you know, that would have been a memorable Raiders moment. Ends up the creation of a weak tuck rule.

Matt in Alaska, what's up? What up, Matt? What's going on, boys? Hey, hey. I heard on the Dan Byer show that some Los Angeles Dodgers fans got to the game eight hours early only to find out that the Dodgers are actually giving bobbleheads to everyone that comes tonight. Talk about being angry.

Anyways, my moment is. Oh, my God. That's the worst. Yeah, because I read 40,000 this morning. I did too. I did too, but the Dan Byer show said that everybody's getting one. Not Dan Byer, Doug Gottlieb. Jim Joyce, first base umpire.

Dude, number one answer. Yeah. Oh, my God. And Andrez, Galaraga. We were saving that for a caller. Dude. He's now not in the record books because of the one answer on the board. Without a doubt, Jim Joyce, who, again, he couldn't have been more sympathetic to the mistake.

He admitted his. error in that moment. But I always argue what he went with his gut and what he thought in the moment was right. I always argue, Kavino, that perhaps that made it even a bigger moment in sports history. So maybe there's like a layer where it's like, I couldn't name all the perfect games in MLB history, but

I can name the one that was robbed. That was a heartbreaker. So what, you're putting it in the Pete Rose category where maybe it was better that he didn't get in because he got more attention? Maybe so. And they both handled it so, like the way Yeah, the way they handle that was almost like shocking.

Baseball should have fixed that, though, afterwards. Why can't they? Yeah. Even if it was last year, the year before that, they should have fixed it. Yeah, honestly, Danny, sometimes we forget it's a game and there's no, like, statute of limitations. It's not, we're not in court. This is not, you know, charges against someone. Hey, we realize it was wrong. With this replay now, I know you can say that's a slippery slope of like,

well then let's replay this and that. But why can't we just all agree? It was a perfect game. Jim Joyce ruined the perfect game, man. That was tough. But they go down in history, a lifetime, like, moment, you know? And we,

I think you and I were watching that rich together or something. Kavino, they were, they're forever linked, much like, you know, for years, Mookie Wilson and Bill Buckner would do autograph signings together. Jim Joyce and Gala Raga are forever almost like brothers in way, right? Like, connected. Yeah, connected through history for sure.

Rich, I know you have like personal other personal examples, but again, it happens in sports. It happens in life. Someone has a little too much to drink at the family reunion. I'm in a good mood. I'm in a good mood. So I don't want to talk about how Spot gave the worst best man speech at my wedding. Like he made your wife cry.

It was like a failed roast instead of a best man speech. But we won't talk about that. Yeah, we don't have to talk about it. Let's get back to the phone calls. Let's go to Todd in Missouri. Todd. Hey, Todd. How much Westbrook messed that up, man. He took the shot on the possession. Wait, say it again, bud? Just how much Westbrook, he missed that layup on the possession right before. He could have just ran the clock and,

or at least not missed the layup. So he just really messed that up. Yeah. And the coach defended him almost, you know, doubled down on both of his mental errors. Yeah. So he just had a rough night, man. I don't know what was going on there. Drew and Cincey. What's up? We'll take like three more. What's up, Drew? Hey, guys. Hey. So Super Bowl 51, Patriots and Falcons, obviously most known for the Falcons blowing the game. But deep in the fourth quarter, Julio Jones had one of the most incredible catches.

I don't know if you all remember. I do remember this. Yeah. And seven yards down the sideline. Just perfect, most of the guy, got both feet in bounds. And what did the Falcons do? Jack, penalty, punt, and the rest is history. Yeah.

When you, I remember that moment only because that's. That's the part you remember where all the Falcons needed to do was put any points on the board just to distance themselves a little more. And the fact that they were in field goal range and somehow sack, penalty, just pushed themselves back. I was like, oh my God, the Patriots are going to do this. That was terrible. Let's go to Neil in Tennessee. Neil, Kavino and Rich. You guys, I don't know if who would have made a difference, but the Weber timeout in the championship game.

Say it again? The Weber, Chris Weber, yeah. Yeah, that's always going to be, we talked about for sure. I actually, you know, our last caller reminded me of something else when I was playing high school football, there was, I forget what the play was, but it was a winning touchdown on our end. It was a JV game. And then there was a clipping call on me that took it back. We ended up losing that game. So I was like, oh, I was like this heroic touchdown that my buddy Tom scored.

And everyone was mad at you, dude. When you get called for something like that, everyone's mad at you for that. You feel like the worst because you ruin the party. You're like the tight end on the Ravens. Yeah. I was like, what? Mark Andrews. You know, there are sometimes when something gets blown, there is a silver lining because you never know.

Is it Tom Brady? You know, Tom Brady tells that story on his documentary, the story of the Chinese farmer, how in the moment you might think something's bad, but it might be good. and something good might actually be bad. A great, what would you call it, a great fable? There was a New York Yankee. I can't quite remember which Yankee. You'll fill in the blanks.

He would have been on a plane that crashed in New York had the Yankees won the World Series. And he forever thanks, Marianna Rivera, for blowing that game. There was a Yankee. Let me explain. Game 7, the Yankees lose. He was going to, his plane, let's just say his travel arrangements changed because it was wait around for the parade or go home.

Wasn't that the Seth MacFarland story too? Seth McFarland just overslept for 9-11. But Yankee avoids plane crash 2001. Not 9-11. Remember a month later a plane crashed in the Rockaways right off of JFK? There was a New York Yankee that was going to be on that plane but said, I don't need to be on that plane anymore. No parade. I'm going home early.

Oh, that's the story of Enrique Wilson. Onrique Wilson. Yeah, he was a great play. He's just a utility guy. And he played big, played well for the Yanks. He credits Mariano's blown save for saving his life. He was booked on a plane. Yeah, Flight 587.

He was booked on a plane that crashed. Everyone died. 587, yeah. Flight 587. And because the Yankees weren't going to have a celebrating parade, like he booked the plane ticket, assuming the Yankees, we're going to win and have a parade. When the Yankees lost game 70, he's like,

I'm going back to his home country. So ruined, yeah, I believe it's a Dominican. Dominican, yeah. Ruined moments in sports. We saw one last night. You know, Russell Will, Russell Westbrook feels bad enough. But the fact that he also ruined that night for Joker makes it worse. And that's really what it comes down to.

So we gave you plenty of examples. And we'll take one last phone call now. You can chime in at Covino and Red. And just for the record, I've looked at my phone. times during that conversation, realizing I don't have a phone. Yep. Rich broke his phone today. I was like, you know, that Yankee, hold on me. Oh, phone. All right.

Let's say hi to Jason in Missouri and then spots got midweek major coming up. What's up, Jason? Thanks for hanging with Kavino and Rich. Don't ask me why I'm a Seahawks fan in the middle of Missouri, but this stupid pass play at the end of the Super Bowl when you've got...

Dude, that would make me sick. Listen, my team has lost a lot of dumb games, but that to me, Seahawks fans honestly must think about that way more than we think that really was one of the most sickening ways to lose a game it really was you have marshawn lynch i don't need to repeat it it just if you're a seahawks fan how do you not annoyingly think of that nightmare just that's just a nightmare that's got to be number one as far as like what's going you probably still wake up some days wondering if you could if that really happened Pete carroll better make wiser decisions with Ashton gentie i know right so you think that's where they're going you got to talk about him too

if we have time. This is my nightmare. So, by the way, he's smaller than I thought. I was looking at him up. He's only 5.9. Dude, he, 5.9, he's, he's not big in stature. He's not a tall guy, but he's built like a rock.

Like a brick, right? He's a brick. They, in fact, they showed him at his pro day. He's a brick. How? You should have saw, like, people were blown away because, you know, they're just basically in their, uh, speedos running around. And he looks like he's built out of bricks.

Damn. All right, well, listen, we're going to talk some NFL and SLM. Plus, we've got spots midweek major, all your big stories in the world of sports and entertainment.

Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, name? Huge news. 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. 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. And 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. 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.

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, Lina Rabakina 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.

But I'm not, you know, I'm not going to run out and see him in concert. But I think think this is a really nice song.

Serendipity, not for you, Kavino, but Game 7 of the 2001 World Series, this is the song that Fox closed the telecast by playing. See, I try to forget. I hate it. That's why. It explains it. You don't want to remember those moments. Ruin moments.

We'll take the rest of your feedback at Covino and Rich. Right now, we're live from the Tyraq.com studio. Again, Covinoenowenrich.com. I'm Steve Covino. That is Rich Davis, Danny G. and Sam, Isaac is on your updates, and now it's time for Spotty Boy and his midweek major. Covino and Rich get you over the middle of the week with Midweek Major. I love that.

We throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas, and it's like the kids say. That's so midweek, definitely major. C&R scoring. Midweek Major. I'm going to still go fast because we're going to do the impossible. It gives Spotty 10 minutes. This is lies. Yes, 10 minutes.

All right, before we hand things over to the number one and only host of the segment, we roll the two big red love dice in the main studio. Yeah, buddy, I just roll the 12. I didn't even know if I want to roll. You might as not. You go for us. It's not your day, Rich. No, 12.

That means Covino's going to get the first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Blume, from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, Spotty Boy. Hey, guys. Hey, Spott. How are you? All right.

So, one Atlanta Hawks fan is going to have to stay off his feet for a while after Tuesday night's game during an intermission in the Hawks versus Trailblazers game at State Farm Arena. Two fans were invited on the court to participate in a basketball version of Tick-Tacto. So while one of the opponents was about to hit a few layups before his competitor, his knee gave out while he was approaching the basket. He was running up and just like immediately. went to the ground and slid down. Fan was laying on the court clutching his knee in pain with an apparent ACL injury.

Ah, my neck. Now, I was going to say, before Camino goes midweek major, I know you get first take on this. But just for people that don't understand, if you get a layup, then you get to run and put an X or O down. Yeah. So it's like a race of layups. Because if you get a shot, then you get to play Tick-Tac-Tac-Toh. So the game.

So there's urgency is what I'm saying. Right, right. So he was running up, slipped, fell. emergency personnel came out, had to like surround them on the court. The game had to be paused. Like they couldn't even continue with the game and something that was just supposed to be in the intermission. Even the nearby players were just staring at this whole thing in disbelief.

The man is actually a season ticket holder. The Hawks said they reached out to him, said that he's in good spirits and expects a full recovery. No word on who's cover of the medical bills. So midweek or major? Major because it brings up so many questions like who should cover the medical? bills and that's the hawks in our opinion

in my opinion. But there's so many major moments here. He's a season ticket holder. How embarrassing. Like he falls and it looks like he slips, which in my opinion again, gives more reason for the hawks to cover these bills because I think they could be facing potential lawsuit

because he could be like, yo, I got hurt in this game, look on the video, I slipped and I think it also leads to another conversation of is it even worth it having the fans out there on the court? Like have the unicycle person with the bowls on their head. It's just as good.

I think this may lead to other conversations where it's not even worth it. I think it's major. Definitely major. I think the Atlanta Hawks, I think the Atlanta Hawks need to cover 100% of this. It's all optics, right? You're a billion dollar franchise.

You have personnel, medical teams on staff for the players. This is a, give this guy free medical coverage. Like, have your people take care of his ACL. on top of that. Maybe this is the last we see of something specifically like this. But I think, you know, a basketball team is a great example of someone that does have on standby, on retainer, I guess you would say, a whole crew of medical personnel. Cover this guy's bills and with the little slippy-dippy as I wrote that, slippy-dippy. Slippy-dippy.

The fact that it's-Body said his knee gave out, but it looks like he slips. Yeah, it looks like there might have been some sweat or condensation. So with that being said, Hawks cover it, do the right thing. and I agree that there is something a little embarrassing. It reminds me a couple weeks ago, almost as embarrassing. I was at a Knicks game a few weeks ago with my buddy Tracy and he threw up

on the court. So embarrassing. True story. By the way, Rich, the latest valuation for the Hawks, 3.8 billion. You're a $3.8 billion company, essentially. Yeah. Pay for the guys.

They handle it and make it right and avoid a PR nightmare. Kind of a bad reflection on huge. humanity though. Humans can no longer step foot on a court without hurting themselves. I know. They're very slippery. The game is over. All right.

We spoke yesterday how Brown's owner Jimmy Haslam commented on Deshaun Watson being a swing and a miss for the team when they acquired him with a five-year $230 million contract. Well, Watson appears to have fired back on social media after the comments went public with a cryptic post on his Instagram, filled with photos of him training at the team's gym with the caption. Maybe if I weren't built for this. I'd let it phase me. Watson is still recovering from his torn atchalus, his Achilles, and no word on whether he'll start next season.

But Cleveland does have the second overall picked in the upcoming draft. So we'll see how that plays out. Midweek or major. Everything major. Definitely major. Major on every level. You got an owner talking about a player that's still on the team. Awkward burgers, right?

You see a sense of honesty that is refreshing, because we're not even, it's refreshing and awkward. Like, wow, he's talking that kind of smack about a current player. player, a player that deserves to be smack talked about, in my opinion. So much expectation placed on him to be one of the worst quarterbacks in the league. And an embarrassment. Talk about embarrassing. That's an embarrassment in itself.

And then he has the nerve to fire back. Dude, you stink. Everything about this is major. I think it's major. Definitely major. Because the guy is still on the team. But I wonder if there is a way for Deshaun Watson to massage the situation. Oh.

Wow. You're over two on that. To sort of, you know, make things right. I don't know. Dude, when you already have a bad reputation, like, I would just deal with it. I wouldn't be talking back at the owner and firing back or anything like that. He's in this position. Collect your money.

Because of a reputation that he sort of set for himself. Collect your money and, you know, be thankful that you sort of bamboozled with everyone. And, dude, do we love comeback stories? Of course. Hey, you know how you shut up? everybody up. Wow. Deliver.

All right. As you know, the A's have left Oakland as they prepare to move to their future home in Las Vegas, but they have their few season pit stop in Sacramento

at Sutter Health Park. Venue shares is a minor league venue that shares it with the River Cats. Capacity of 14,000. Well, one feature they seem to be missing is a bathroom for the visiting team. You may have,

there was a clip floating around where Cubs Outfielder Sayas Suzuki was forced to run across the outfield. They called it the walk of shame. Right, the walk of shame in between innings to make a trip to the bathroom because the visiting dugout is not connected to the clubhouse. In addition, apparently the A's are going to have to use a metal shed to have their press

conferences. So so far, things are going great in Sacramento. They lost 18 to 3 in their home opener, midweeker major. I think it's major. These are majorly ball players, right? You don't have these things figured out before you have the Cubs come and visit? That's embarrassing. They did work for a couple of months.

months straight on upgrading this stadium to at least, you know, have it somewhere near. You would think a bathroom would be important. But I'm just like, honestly like, yeah, especially for these high profile players. I mean, it would, I know the games are only two, what, two hours and something, 20 minutes? It would look trash. It would look trashy, but like put a portage out of the dugout. No, like something, right? Grab a metal bucket from that shed and they can go in that.

How about that? Yeah. Yeah. That's fine. Piss all the wall. Cubs are dominating. looking really strong out there though. Nice job,

Spot. So we're going to be out there. Is that your first curse on the year? I think it's my first in four years. It wasn't bad, but it had to go. It's all good. We're going to actually be out there on the 13th. Rich and I are going just to watch a game.

I hope there's a bathroom we could use. Man, I hope there's a place for Francisco and door to drop a deuce. Yeah, he's got to try to cross the outfield. I know. Oh, man. We know what he's doing. Oh, bad. All right.

Stick him with baseball. Not everyone a fan of the torpedo bats that are all the rage. with the Yankees and it's probably going to be spreading to other teams. Well, Philly's reliever, Matt Strom, posted on his ex-account sharing his thoughts, which just seemed to be catching wind and going viral. He said, let them use whatever they want, but let's allow pitchers to use whatever hitters have

in the on-deck circle and not check us like we're criminals every time we walk on or off the field. He said, I'm just a pitcher, but I'm assuming better grip helps you swing harder. So he's looking for some fair balance here between pitchers and hitters. He said, The umps conduct numerous hand checks on pitchers throughout the game for sticky substances.

He's not saying, he specifically said, not looking to bring back some sticky stuff, but we still want to have that better grip just like the batterers. Get out of here. That's called cheating. And everything that they did with the bat is legal on every level. Stop comparing it with steroid usage and anything like that. Pine tar is also a legal substance since the beginning of time of baseball. So to all of a sudden expect pitchers to be allowed to use spider tack or pintor or anything,

a foreign substance on a ball just to balance out the torpedo bat is just silly talk. Yeah. Agreed. I think it's weak. I think it's weak. You know what? I think it's sort of weak too. Weeks.

Because there's still this misconception by some bozos that the Yankees or anyone for that matter is doing anything wrong. You know who I feel bad for the most? Not the Yankees, not the creators of the torpedo bat. I feel bad for all the parents of these like overzealous travel baseball teams. Every little kid's probably like, I need a torpedo bet. I need a torpedo bat. Well, you know there's speculation. You know how they gave credit to that physicist that designed it.

Lenny. Easton had a version of a torpedo bat years ago. Yeah, the more you're seeing things, it was like under our nose the whole time. All right. Let's see. I mean, it's in full swing. So we'll go to March Madness. It can be quite a time for college hoops fans.

but not so great for their relationships. I know pretty obvious there, but in a recent survey of 1,000 couples, apparently 28% of fans have said that fights have been started because of the tournament. To go as far as one sports book, BetUS, is offering the college basketball championship 2025 prenuptial agreement.

Might be a bit late for that. But the Hoops and Harmony contract has couples decide how many games they're allowed to watch. Each party has to agree to coordinate viewing schedules, prioritize shared activities and responsibilities. And apparently among the Gen Z range, which is 18 to 24, one in four have said they've thought about ending their relationship because of the tournament.

26% of couples say that watching habits, sports watching habits, are a relationship deal breaker and people and how they feel neglected during games. And 24% of men are unwilling to budge on their viewing habits. So it's not in a great time for dating, or major? Well, in the grand scheme of relationships, it's major, but I think the story's kind of mid. Because I think young people, you said from the ages of 18 to 24, they're willing to break up over anything. Relationships don't matter. Oh my God, that gave me the ick. Yeah, they're so fickle. If someone blows their nose the wrong

way, they have to move on because they can't get past it. So I'm not surprised by this. No, this is weak sauce. First of all, yeah, but it is major that relationships can't withstand anything. If you're fighting over every March Madness game, and guess what? Get a life. Honestly, get a life. I do think you have to date someone a full calendar year before you marry

them because I think you do need to see their habits. How about this? When you're like vetting someone to date, hey, do you like March Madness? Do you like sports? If they say yes, then that's a good starting point. Yeah, no doubt. So like they should understand that you want to watch those games and you should invite them. Well, time for Isaac Lohencrone.

What's up, Ilo. A lot of money. A lot of money. That's what's up. Going around in Major League Baseball fellows, multiple outlets reporting Arizona Diamondbacks All-Star Second Baseman. Ketel Martez agreed to a new six-year, $116 million. Padres All-Star outfielder Jackson Merrill's agreed to a nine-year extension worth a reported $135 million. Red Sox infielder and outfielder Christian Campbell has agreed to an eight-year extension worth a reported $60 million. On the scoreboard right now, Pete Alonzo of the Mets got them to a one. one-nothing lead at Miami today with an RBI double in the top of the first, but Miami has since scored three runs. Aggravating. They've still got that lead.

Three-run Marlins over the Mets. Now in the bottom half of the seventh inning, the San Francisco Giants, a six-three lead at Houston, going to the bottom half of the ninth inning in the Minnesota Twins, leading the Chicago White Sox five to nothing in the top of the fifth inning. Earlier, Sea Suzuki had two home runs as the Cubs trounce the A's 10 to 2. The A's remain winless in Sacramento. Today's attendance 9,342. St. Louis Gardell's catcher, Yvonne Herrera, three home runs and six RBI in a 12-5 win over the Angels. Bryce Terrang's RBI squeeze in the bottom of the 11th gave the Milwaukee Brewers a three-two win over the Kansas City Royals. Finally in soccer, former noted Manchester United head coach Jose Morino, who is now coaching a team

in Turkey is presently trending. It seems that after a game this evening, Marino confronted the opposing team's head coach and pulled the man down by his nose. HONK! HONK! Took the guy right down to the ground. That's an old Miyagi move.

Here was the befuddled reaction of the Turkish studio commentators watching footage of the incident. Look, oh, Morinio, his head. No translation necessary. Back to you guys. Thank you. All right.

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. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio. Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

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. Jen Chinchin win. 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, Lina 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.

But in honor of the late great Val Kilmer, can we just go around the room? And when I say Val Kilmer, I thought it was interesting that every obituary led with something different. Like the New York Times, Val Kimmer, Kilmer, comma, Batman. You know, the New York Post might have said, Top Gun. Someone else said, you know, for playing Jim Morrison,

when I say Val Kilmer, what do you think of? Man. I think Iceman Top Gun. That's like to me. I think his most famous role was in Tombstone, personally. But I think of the doors because it was always crazy, uncanny for me to see not only the performance, but just how much he looked like.

Jim Morrison and became Jim Morrison. Like, he looked more like Jim Morrison than Jim Morrison to me. Like, when I think of that Doris poster and album cover, I think of Val Kilmer's face. I hate to say this. I've never seen that movie. Yeah, he did a great job. To me, to me, I think Iceman and I think how even when he was sick at the end, he was in the new Top Gun Maverick movie and he had a pretty cool moment there with Tom Cruise.

So I think Iceman and I also think Batman. I think of him as an action star, actually. late 80s, a movie we had on a VHS tape that we wore out, Willow. Oh, another hand. That's right. Long run, anything come to mind for you? Heat and the Saint. I love the saint.

It's a great movie. Elizabeth's a great movie. Great movie. So many great movies. I'm going to go way back. The film Real Genius. Good one. Where he was in college.

He was like a smart guy. The guy from White Lotus is in that movie. I got mine. Yeah, what you got, Sam? With Michael Douglas, the Ghost and the Darkness. Excellent movie. See that man. So many.

If you want to chime in with yours, hit us up at Covino. We actually posted a picture of us with him. All right. We'll see you tomorrow. I'll read it there at you, baby. See you in the Promise Land. Goodbye. Hey, guys, it's us.
