What do you call us say you can't solve ignorance? Yeah. We've been trying for 20 years. But he also said some people aren't willing to evolve.

Thank goodness. Baseball finally decided to because it's winning and we established that. Well, football has always done a great job evolving, which is why it's king. And we're going to talk a lot of NFL, a lot of football this hour on Kavino-Nrich. One last point. Yesterday I got my shag trimmed up for the weekend. How do you like the salad? Looking good, huh? Looking good.

Baseball. I thought you weren't going to go with the Johanio Suarez Mullen. You're not going to go with that? Probably in the winter time. Okay, perfect. Yeah. But baseball passed the barbershop test too. You know, yesterday I was there getting a trim up for the weekend.

And all the Vatos there at the shop, man, they're buzzing about baseball. I'm telling you. It's not always like that. Punant-int-tent. You were buzzing about it. Yes. With the two-clip, one and a half, little shirt on the sides. But, yeah, man, it was excitement in the bar.

Barbershop, just people talking about their team representing, talking about the moves. And it's usually football or basketball. And baseball was popping. We made it clear. But now we talk Cam Ward. But we get you involved at 8774-844-34-37. We're giving away prizes. We're playing games.

We've got weekend hobnobbing what you need to watch this weekend. But before we talk some football, I know we have someone on hold that wants to talk Shado. Sanders specifically. All right, let's do it. I'm down to talk. Who we got, Danny Jay? Shador. Terry in San Diego. Back it up, Terry.

Terry, back it up. What's up, buddy? Hey, guys. Now, I get a little frustrated with ESPN because they have a tendency to bury people they don't like and prop up people they do. And it seems like Shador Sanders has been propped up a little bit too high

and Dylan Gabriel's getting buried. I mean, if you compare their college stats, they're pretty similar. there, but if you look at who they played, Dylan Gabriel played an amazing schedule and beats some big teams. And Chador, I mean, as much as they want to say, he was a number one draft pick, I mean, you look at his mentor, Tom Brady, who owns the owner of the Raiders, who need a quarterback, the Raiders took not five players ahead of Shador. They took seven before Shadur was drafted in the fifth round, which tells you Brady might know something, but this morning when

Herm Edwards comes on and says that Dylan Gabriel is less mobile than Shador Sanders. That is just, that's just crazy. You know what it is, too? I'm not saying you're wrong by any means, but in this business. And I consider me

a broadcasting tycoon. Some names are just sexier than others. There's a reason that LeBron does anything and they're talking LeBron, LeBron, LeBron. It gets people's attention. And Sanders is a pretty big name. We've grown up with that name. People care about Shador

Sanders. Doesn't necessarily mean he's the best, but we talk about him like he is. Well, it's not just the ESPN Terry, and I'll tell you why, because I just searched while you were asking the question, I searched that there was an update if the Browns had said anything about who's starting.

And it said, currently there's four people and they still have not thought about it. Not five. Right now they're saying, Flacco, Pickett, Dylan Gabriel, and Shador. But then under that, Danny, would you believe every single article is about Chador Sanders from Newsweek to ESPN

to Fox? Because it's sexy. Although I found Browns Nation. Cleveland reporter Tony Gracie. He says that he believes the Browns view, their rookie quarterback as a number one pick from the neck up. He says they're very intrigued by Dylan

Gabriel. So, I mean, there's a good chance. Gabriel's going to get some starts this season. Yeah, look, they're all in it to win it. This is the game of winning. So, props to Dylan Gabriel, is anyone's job to win.

Well, I know, again, you're saying that, but now I'm reading another thing. Cleveland, I'm not saying

it's a mess because sometimes a plethora? I'm sorry, did you say a plethora? I said a plethora. Sometimes a plethora. Do you even know what a plethora is?

Oh, see, a woppo. I think so. They do have a plethora of quarterbacks. Sometimes a plethora is a good thing. Sometimes it just means

you don't have the one. Like, If you're dating a bunch of random people, it's probably because you haven't met the one. Or maybe you're just, you know, an ass magnet. You don't know. Now, four quarterbacks, could it be that Gabriel or Shador eventually steps it up? Right now, every single tweet, every single report is saying that the Browns may be leaning towards Shador. A lot of people say it'll be flacco to start the season and then they go from there.

But listen, man, it's... Speaking of starters, how about that guy in Miami? Tua Tagovalia. Valioa. Did you guys see that? Oh, so good. I was playing it this morning. His spot was like, is that real?

And I'm like, I hope it is. You know what? It sounded like AI, right? Tua, tag O. Velaela. If you have not heard Donald Trump say Tua's last name, then you're in luck. Is it about 10 minutes? 15 minutes or so?

Let's make sure we pull it and play it. I know. Ian, if you're listening in the editing room, please get that in. Tua. Tag Ovalia. He says tag Ovalia, I believe. He says it like real segmented. We live in the sad world now where I don't know if anything's real or fake. So let's also double check if it's real.

It could be completely fake. Well, speaking of quarterbacks, see, we're talking about freaking Chador Sanders and he dropped to what? Because he's around. Because he's fun to talk about that. No, I know. Cam Ward, your number one freaking pick. There's two thoughts about him. Danny G and I were both on the same mindset last night because I hit Danny up with something

and then he hit me up with something right after that. Cam Ward, get this, has the lowest overall Madden rating for a number one pick in the last 25 years. Wow. Now, you might say, who gives a funk or wagnall, my favorite encyclopedia print? Funk and wagner was great. Who gives a crap at all? Who gives a terrible Terry Funk? But, let's be honest, the younger generation.

and gamers do put a lot of stock in their Madden ratings. I mean, how many times have you heard players like jokingly and not jokingly complain like, yo, yo, they got it wrong. If you think that doesn't matter, you're over 50 easily because everyone younger knows that it's way important for these young guys. So the fact that Cam Ward has the lowest Madden rating for a number one pick in the last 25 years says something. And Danny G, read the tweet that you just sent me after that.

Then there's a meme that says you can comfortably say Cam Ward is the least discussed number one overall pick that's a quarterback heading into their rookie year in the past 20 years. And that also is a fact. So I'm here to say this, guys. This is the best thing ever for Cameron Ward. The fact that Cam Ward

is not being talked about, there's no hype train. Oh, we talked about him yesterday when he said the offense is really mid right now. He did say the word mid and we like that. Yeah. He didn't say they were chop, though. No. But mid, meaning, they're not doing that great.

They're kind of average. But the simple fact that the expectation is not off the charts. The fact that his Madden rating is low. The fact that all the attentions on Baron Rogers and old guys and, hey, is Brock Purdy going to earn his money? Are the Eagles going to repeat? Yo, what's going to happen with McLaurin? The Cowboys are going to get it together? There's, you know, 32 storylines in the NFL.

and I think rookie number one pick Cam Ward is in the bottom tier of hot NFL stories and I think this works to his advantage because how many times are all eyes on the quarterback we saw with Caleb Williams oh look at me he's painting his fingernails and he did this and we established yesterday that the quarterback is usually the frontman of the band

he's the most famous he's the face of the franchise and in a division where Jacksonville Trevor Lawrence has completely under-delivered up into this point. In Indianapolis, we've joked about how, you know, is it Daniel Jones or Anthony Richardson? That team's sort of in disarray. And then you said, Houston took a major step back last year when you thought C.J. Stroud and that crew had it together.

I still think they're good, but don't be shocked. Our buddy Tewy from the herd yesterday was saying how don't be surprised if that is a surprising team this year. they're better than you thought. Tennessee, Cam Ward, no one's talking about them. And listen, Nashville is a great city. For some reason, it doesn't pop with NFL talk. It's just one of those great cities. They're building a new stadium.

It's the Bachelorette capital of the world. But for some reason, I think it's safe to say, Danny, Ryan, I think everyone in this room would agree that the Tennessee Titans are not a very, they might be one of the lower talked about teams in the NFL ever. at least to us. I mean, was there ever a time where people were really talking about the Titans? No, and in all the power rankings you see,

the Titans are in the bottom five of the list. So there's sort of something to be said about the low expectation, the low amount of buzz, it leaves you the opportunity to create your own buzz because if there was all this big hype, like a Caleb Williams or a Trevor Lawrence or something like, then when you don't deliver right away,

people start saying, oh, they're not that good? Is it a bust situation? I think Cam Ward should be tickled pink. I don't even know what that means. But he should be so thrilled. It means flattered. Yeah. He should be so pumped that no one seems to care.

It's true. It takes some pressure off the situation. Listen. Gives you room to grow a little bit. Because, you know what? If he delivers, if he delivers, the money will be there. He'll make that in that second contract. If he's still around, he'll make.

make the money. That's not the issue. He'll get the endorsements. He'll be a hero to that region of NFL fans if he delivers. But the idea of going into your rookie season as a number one pick and there's no spotlight on you, that is comforting as could possibly be. And what was Danny G. saying in our pre-show meeting? Believe it or not, we have meetings about this before we actually get on the air. I know it's hard to believe. Plus 350 for offensive rookie of the year. Yes, sir. Yeah. And there was a So there's some expectation. Yeah, this was a quote from him yesterday.

I've grown up watching my dad, wake up at 4.30 a.m., doing a job he didn't like. So you know, if I can't wake up early and do what I need to do for a job I do like, I shouldn't be playing football. He's got a good attitude. Yeah, I like that. He has the right mindset. I know it's just a stupid viral video, but have you ever seen that one of him and Shador Sanders thrown with each other? And he's sort of alphas. Oh, yeah.

He alphas Shador Sanders. Big time. And he sort of put Shador in his place and I was like, oh, Cam Ward's got some wavals. It was actually counterproductive, I think, for Shador Sanders at the time to practice with him and made him look bad. So we shall see your thoughts on Cam Ward. In breaking audio news.

Oh, we have it? Yeah, thank you, Ian. To a tag Ovalia. He's very good. Yeah, he follows it up. When he's not heard, he's very good. One more time from President Trump. To a tag Ovalia.

It's so awkward to see him. Yeah. Now, if you get to see the clip of it, Vance is standing nearby and he's just trying not to crack up. I'll be honest, J.D. Vance is like your buddy's standing behind you when you're like doing a speech and he knows you're messing up. Honestly, I want to hear Trump say all of his best friends in sports names like Janus's name. I want to hear everybody. Big moves yesterday. Oh, Hennio, Swarys.

I want to hear everybody's name. And he said, too, it just needs to stay healthy. I know. Some deep analysis. That is funny. And by the way, that, I don't know what's better at that

or could be no saying, a Navian yesterday for water heaters. I mean, that's how me and my boys say. That's why. But, you know, I will say there's no more daunting feeling if you were given a name like that. Have you ever seen some of those graduation fails

where this poor man or woman spent four plus years in college or grad school and they walk up to get their diploma and they butcher their name? That's the worst. Or say something like mildly inappropriate. Yeah, it's the weakest. So bad.

So, hey, shout out to Tua. What was it again? Tua. Tag Ovalia. Well, tag Ovalia. in Trump's defense, it's not an easy one. Which is why I only say Tua. He should have just stuck to Tua.

I honestly think that UFC names might be tougher than hockey names nowadays. Because everyone says them wrong. Everybody. Bro. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Khabib, yeah. There are time, I will never say anything other than Khabib. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Kibb. There are athletes that I have purposely have never even went there.

Purposely. Yeah, because you don't want to be that. And you're right about that, Kavino. If you watch UFC on the weekends, which a lot of guys do, we do, there'll be times where the announcer, the ring announcer, and the backstage reporter, say the fighters name three different ways. We experienced that not too long ago with Better Biev and Bival, Beev, Bivel. Dmitri Bivel, Bivel, Bivel.

Dmitri, is it Bivel, Bivel, or Bevel? When I tell you, we were at the fight in Vegas, and every single promoter, trainer, everyone's like, yeah, and it Bevel, Bevel, Bevel. And is it Bejan or Bejan? Well, we all know that now. Yeah, I know.

I have a question, and then we'll move on. When someone correct you on their name pronunciation, is it then rude to go back to what you were saying anyway? Like, Bejohn Robinson told the world, listen, I know I'm a star running back. You guys all know me.

But for real, it's not Bejan Robinson, it's Bejohn. Do you think there's going to be a concerted effort for real for everyone to be okay? For broadcasters, broadcasters respectfully try to make those adjustments. I was talking to. I think the fan, yeah, you might know it, but it takes you, like, how long did we say Terrell Owens and it's Terrell Owens? Or Tyrod Taylor.

Yeah, Terrod Taylor. There's still a part of you that it goes off like, oh, it's Tarad. He let it go too long. Right. I think. If you let it go through, if you, you respectfully try to make the adjustment. Danny, if you, if you get wind of it,

and everyone else still says it the wrong way, like the example, I just used in the hallway. I was talking to Bershito, the Bershinator, Bursh that, you know, runs this place when Mike's not here. Bershito. Bersh and Ian, we were talking about. Never heard of them. One of our favorite shows,

Kavino Dexter Resurrection. My dark passenger. That's my name. It's a great show. Dexter's so freaking good. So good. I was talking about how it's so good on Paramount Plus. And Ian, like a lot of people said, man, you know, Dexter was great, but I, you know, it hasn't been the same since the Trinity killer.

And I said, oh, John Lithgow. Because the world knows him as John Lithgow. Yeah, he told us straight out. And not the name drop. He was on our show and he's like, you know, it's actually Lithgow, but everyone says Lithgow. So, you know, we had that experience too, not the name drop. But we had Chad. Who else has been on the show?

Chad Kruger on us. our show from nickel black. Nickel black. That's not how you say it. No, he told us this really nickel black. Chad Kruger is spelled Kroger, but he's like, no, I mean, it's Kruger. It's Chad Kruger.

A lot of people think it's Nickelback's Chad Kroger. And the other one, this is actually for real. You probably had a crush on her in the 90s. Who? Sarah Michelle Gilar. It's actually, it's not Sarah Michelle Geller. She is at, it's Sarah Michelle Gron. Speak for your.

yourself, bro. I thought you're talking Carmen Elektra. Oh, that's Electra. So, hey, you know, props to John Robinson, Tua, and again, we go back to Cam Ward, wishing him the best in his rookie campaign. And again,

I always think the best situations are those where you have the work ethic, and you're going to put all the effort in, but there's no pressure. Going under the radar here is going to work to his advantage, I think. No doubt because there's no added pressure, no high expectations.

No one boon him to get him out. Look at Caleb Williams, as much as I respect him and I think he's going to be a star. Danny G., you remember Bears fans? We're talking about his rookie year like postseason, baby! Because when you overhip, you're only going to underproduce for the most part. Not just Chicago fans. You guys, exactly a year ago, you guys were leading just about every show we had with Caleb Williams talk. There was a lot of talk about Caleb.

And you know what? Danny, he goes back to wrap this up. back to my favorite lesson I try to remind all men because this applies to in the workplace, in the bedroom, on a night out, you never want to over promise and under deliver. You always want to do the opposite. You always want to, you know, maybe downplay it underpromise a little bit and then over deliver. If you, you know, you tell some girl you're going to rock her world in the bedroom and then you don't. You come up, you know, like, yeah, yeah.

Like, people are big talkers. Set realistic expectations. Yeah, don't be a big talker. And the other one I always love is like, I see my idiot friends do this. They'll tell their wife or girlfriend, like, yeah, I'm, I'll be home soon. I'm on my way home. And I'm like, you just ordered another drink. You're not going to be home.

Like, then you're going to be home at 2 a.m. Then come home at 1 a.m. And I think you're the greatest. Yeah. I just missed you, honey. Wait a second. You get to stay out till 1? Yeah.

So don't ever over promise an under-deliver or, or underproduced. And Cam Ward is set up for success here, I think. I think at least. So, all right. Your thoughts at Covino and Rich in for Colin on the Herd. We got more next right here on Fox Sports Radio. One more Herd?

We never get to everything. Honestly, because this guy is over-promising things we never have time for. Yeah, you blubber lips. Blame and me. Well, you know what? It's called Over-Promise. You should be good at it because you've been over-promising women for years. Well, it's a Kavino and Rich after show, and we want you to be a part of it.

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 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, 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 wanted to bring up something because today is August 1st out here on the West Coast Dude, it's my birthday month Shout out to the Leos, bro! If you say that again,

someone should karate chop you in the neck. Birthday month? Yeah, man. Eight days away, going to be celebrating. Birthday month. I'll be riding the teacups in Orlando. I can't wait. I love that you say birthday month, but he's not joking.

August 1st. I kind of am because I know I make the eyes rolling. Yo, a couple weeks from now, kids out here on the West Coast go back to school, football is underway, baseball-panet races. It's just a great time of the year. And I was like, August 1st, I know that's something, not just a flipping of the calendar. It is the anniversary. Some of us weren't born yet.

Some of us were in diapers. Some of us were grown-ups. In 1981. Some of us looked like tattoo from Fantasy Island. That would be me. So I was just a little schoolboy. But I remember the hype. I was in diapers.

MTV debuted on this day 44 years ago. And of course everyone knows, trivia, what's the first song that ever played? Of course, the Buggles, Video Killed the Radio Star. But my question always is, well, then what was the second song played?

Everyone loves to know that fun fact. Yeah, it was the Buggles. Video killed the radio. If I put myself in that mindset, they just played the same videos over and over again. So was it like Jack and Diane by John Mellencamp? Or was it John Cougar or John Cougar Mellencamp? No. I'll tell you.

I'll tell you. Oh, Mickey, what a pity you don't understand. The third song was your dad's favorite, Rod Stewart. She Won't Dance With Me. The fourth song, The Who. Wow. Yeah, they were very limited on videos at the time. Back then, I'll give you a hint.

Check it on, silly down. What is it? The second song ever played on MTV, female artist. Female artist. Rocked out a little bit. Was it Pat Benatar? Correctamundo.

What song? Hit me with your best shot. I don't think that song was out yet. Okay. Then it was, uh, You better run. You better hi. That's it.

You better run by Pat Benatar. Second song ever on MTV. Yeah. Look at you smarty pants. You're the best. You know, you talk about how no one talks about Cam Ward. He's the number one draft pick.

Yeah. And sort of going under the radar. Yeah, of course. He's playing for a non-sexy team. For someone that was so big back in the 80s, no one really talks about Pat Benatar ever. I'm kidding. Does any...

Do you ever hear any buzz on Pat Benatar? No, but it's huge. I'll tell you what. Hit me with your best shot. Correct me if I'm wrong. That was always part of like sports montages in the 80s. Yeah, that's not a knock. That's a nod.

I'm saying people should. remember and recognize. And that's a great trivia question. And our dude Mark Goodman, who we became friends with at Sirius XM, I believe, introduced the first video. Mark Greatman. He's the best. Yeah, it was him and J.J. Jackson and

Martha Quinn. And then of course... Nina Blackwood. You, Nina Blackwood. And then of course, you know, it evolved to the Adam Currys of the world. And MTV News became a thing. And then we got Beavis and Mutthead. The evolution was real. Then Jersey, sure. And bump in your fist

from the Jersey Shore. Now you get nothing but ridiculousness and nothing. Don't forget. Historic. Yo MTV Raps. Yo MTV Raps. Headbangers ball. Yeah, I loved it.

I lived it. I wanted my MTV. I had my MTV. It was a big deal, man. And we celebrate 44 years of it today. I think we need to get those videos back. I know they did their week of videos, but they need to do that again, man.

I just don't understand why. they straight away from that. That was a lot of fun. I mean, we live in a different world now. No one's sitting down on their couch watching music videos. Kids will watch clips on their phone. And the reality is videos are still made for every song. They still spend money on it too.

Not every song. Every song's got a video. Not every song. If you look up any... Because it's just a waste of money if they're not playing them anywhere. If you look up any song that charts on the radio. On Sirius XM, I-Hon. Hard, Odyssey, Spotify, Apple.

Every big song, whether it's the Foo Fighters or Taylor Swift or Duolipa or Sabrina Carpenter or anyone that's at Jingle Ball or IHard or Coachella, I promise you, they all have music videos and they just sort of live in what, like Vivo form and videos and they're on YouTube essentially. So Video Killed the Radio Star. Yeah. You are a radio star. 44 years ago.

And it was a big freaking deal, man. It was a big deal. So MTV has a dad bod now. Oh, MTV right now? Yeah. He's trying to decide if it should use just for men. MTV's definitely using just for men. If MTV was a woman, they're contemplating their Botox options.

Absolutely. MTV's got a little sag to it now. MTV is thinking if that you get a mommy makeover. Yeah. But, hey, a lot of fun while it lasts. Even though it's still around. No one's tuning into MTV the way. They used to.

MTV, 44 years old today. All right, you want to go to the Heard Line News with Danny G? Let's see what's doing. Let's do it. No, no, no, no. Turn on the news. This is the Heard Line News. All right, guys, you started off the show talking about how baseball is having a moment.

Baseball. Well, a random Thursday night game between the Braves and Reds turned into a historic thriller in the eighth inning. Do you hear about this? Eight runs at the top and bottom, right? The Braves broke a 3-3 tie by exploding for their eight runs, only to allow the Reds to storm back with eight of their own.

And it's just the third time in major league history that both teams scored eight or more runs in the same inning, according to your friend Elias at the Sports Bureau. That's insane. It was also the third time in the expansion era that two teams combined for 16 or more hits in the same inning with each team posting eight.

The Braves went on to win a wild one, 12 to 11 and 10 innings. I love those ridiculous stats that they're able to figure out. Did you see that one yesterday with the Yankee game? The Yankees are the only MLV team in the modern era to erase a deficit in the 8th, erase a deficit in the 9th, and erase a deficit in the 10th, and then win in the 11th. I mean, that's just, I love it.

That's a pretty cool game right there. It just adds to the excitement, Danny G. To answer eight runs with eight more of your own, that's insane. Yeah, but then you lose. They ended up losing the game. Yeah, but still. For the fans? What an exciting moment. Yeah, it's a lot of offense. That's what we want.

All right, let's move to the NFL. Covino, one of your favorite quarterbacks. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, QB, Baker Mayfield. Uh-oh, contusion on his throwing hand. I think that's a fancy way to say a bruise. He sat out practice at training camp today in Tampa. Bucks coach Todd Bowles told reporters that Mayfield's hand is sore. It's been sore, he says, for the last couple of days from a couple of factors, which all added up.

He's not concerned that it's a long-term. injury. You know what's so funny. You're so right. I just looked it up to confirm. Why do they use the word contusion? It's really just a bruce. Is that why?

Like, why can't we? Why do we, why do we? You had to look that up? I don't know. Yeah, I guess so. You knew contusion was Bruce? Yes. What?

I think that was common knowledge. No, I did not know. We get contuged egos. Yeah, I guess so. All right, let's lastly talk about Baltimore. Lifelong Ravens fan native of Baltimore. Michael Phelps, your favorite swimmer. He plans to help give swimming lessons to the Ravens.

They requested his help on social media. Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey posted a video with the request for the Olympic icon on IG and X. The video features Humphrey and other teammates inside the brand new recovery pool at the Under Armour Performance Center there in Owings Mills, Maryland. The 23-time gold winner Phelps responded the other day on IG by writing back, I got y'all. Let's do it. That's cool, man.

I mean, if you're going to get swimming lessons, I had some random mean middle-aged woman give my kids swimming lessons. Michael Phelps, a lot cooler. Michael Phelps is way cooler. In fact, he's a guy. You know how we often forget about Joey Chestnut when we talk about goats?

Yeah. Forget about Phelps a lot. He's the goat. He is. He has to be in that conversation. I'm going to add, by the way, I'm going to add that to the list of dumb things about myself. The fact that I didn't know that

contusia. I didn't know it was just simply hold on. Let me pull out my scroll and add it to the list. How do I not know that? Danny, I wanted to add one thing to your your herd line news. More of a question. Less news. So when you see these trade deadline

moves happen yesterday in the day before, you know, the last couple days, a lot of action, when do you want and expect the guys to debut for your new team? Immediately. Is it almost like... That's how I feel. Like, if you're capable, Danny, right now. If you're capable of being in New York in five hours from right now or you're capable from going from Seattle to Miami in a, you know, five, six hours, is it crazy to expect, like for the Mets? Is it crazy for me to think Cedric Mullen should be on tonight's lineup? No. It's a long season. Every game matters right now after the All-Star break. You want to see your new star or even non-star player show up the very next day. I'd say one day.

Did you see that the Yankees made the trade for Jose Caballero? yesterday while they were playing them and he had to say goodbye to his former team there and then I guess say what's up to his new teammates right after. Is that why he winked at Aaron Boone? No, but that's so weird. It's so awkward when you think about that.

Two times that happened this year. But I do wonder, like, for instance, does... But I expected him to be in, like, immediately. Like, Johaneo Suarez, is he already paling around with the Mariners? Or do we give these guys like an odd grace period? Like, we know you've got to like

pack up your stuff and all that. But you know, you're... It takes a second to acclimate. Even McMahon said the other day, like he could finally breathe once he got that walkoff because he was playing so tight and so nervous. Like, it does take a second to get comfortable. I get it. But my point is, you're a Major League Baseball player.

You're making a ton of money. And I know that's not the... I hate to be the guy that uses that excuse. But you can have someone help pack up your place. You could hire a moving company. I'm sure your wife or family, very supportive. 50-something games left. Get in there right now.

In my mind, like, I'd have not. released the lineup yet, but I can only imagine I bring it up because it's my team, but I would imagine Cedric Mullins is in the Mets lineup tonight. I think so. Has to be. I mean, well, anyway, thank you. Thank you, Danny Jee. Yeah, that is your Herd-Law News. That's the news. And thanks for stopping by.

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 do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, 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. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

But thanks for remembering that, guys. 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.

So we'll tell you what you need to watch this weekend. You got it. Buster Brown. Two quick notes. Did you see they announced where the MLB All-Star game is going to be in 2027? And it's an awesome, awesome answer. And I guess. Yeah.

Las Vegas. There's no team there yet, but they won't be ready or anything. You're hyping it up. You're hyping it up. No, I think it's just a really cool, cool stadium choice. All right, go ahead. Just tell me. It hasn't been there since 1990.

That's a big hint because how many stadiums are still around than we're around in 1990, right? Wrigley Field in Chicago. Baseball All-Star game will head back to Wrigley and they said Wrigleyville will be stepped up to a new level. Wait, that 1990 All-Star game, is that where they had that big ceremony for all the legends? Very well could have been. Look that up, but for the first time in 35 years,

well, it'll be 37 years. The baseball all-star game will head to Wrigley in Chicago. And what's pretty cool about that, you know Wrigleyville's got all the cool bars and restaurants they're saying over the next two years now, they're going to really try to make sure that area is even more ready for a great All-Star Week. And that new Vegas stadium that the A's are expected to play

and is going to be ready for opening day 2028. There we go. All right. So remember I told you, yesterday, right, that I went and got a haircut. And I took the barbershop test. They were all buzzing about baseball. Yeah.

One of the vatos there was like, yo, coino. I was like, what's up, man? He's like, yo, baseball's popping, right? And I'm like, sure is, man. He's like, yo, man, you think my Dodgers is going to make it? I'm like, yeah, probably, unfortunately. He's like, yo, I want to ask you, bro. He's like, yo, Doug.

No what I love, by the way, when you do go to a place like this, when people find out you're on Fox Sports or ESPN, or NFL. Yeah, but the whole place was talking about baseball. No, but I'm saying there's a sense of like all of a sudden

they think your opinion means something. Yeah. I was trying to find that funny about who's going to win the Super Bowl. You're right. Barbershop's a great example. The gym.

If you start talking to people, my softball buddies, they'll ask me like I have any more insight. Like, yo, yo, bro, I know you work for Fox Sports. Who do you think

I should pick in my NFL draft, blank or blank? You got to pretend like you do. Right? You know a little something. He goes, yo, bro. He's like, yo, did I see you at the home run

Derby on TV. Were you there in Atlanta? I'm like, yeah, that was us, man. Our whole mission was to get on TV. He's like, yo, I saw the camera zoom in and you were going wild. He's like, I wasn't sure, man. He's like, yo, but I saw you like a few times. And yes, we were on TV for the All-Star game, the Home Run Derby.

We were in the dugout. We had a blast. We interviewed Zach Brown because he did the anthem. If you missed any of it, it's all on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. But we were there in the Home Run Derby, and it's just something you you got to plan ahead with your family or friends to go to. So, Rich is right.

Chicago, let's go. It's a fun time. I'm excited for that one. Now, before we get to, again, WMBA player or Tripoli worker,

before we get to weekend hobnob and we'll talk more NFL. Just a thought, and again, it's, there's more to this than, hey, the golden bachelor,

but you know the new golden bachelor is former L.A. Ram, Mel Owens. Okay He was named the golden bachelor He's 66 years old Again played in the NFL Are you watching Bachelor in Paradise by the way? I am not And I'm not

They're mixing the young people with the old people Oh man some daddy stuff going on Some saddy action I mean I haven't seen any Hookups but it's getting a little flirty Well I'll say this The guy's a 66 year old Athletic dude

Look at him he played in the NFL So he's like one of those like in shape 60 somethings, right? You're admirable, right? I mean, 60 something today is like 50 something. And I don't know if you saw like a few weeks ago. This guy got a lot of crap because he told producers, keep in mind, he's 66.

If you try casting any woman over 60, I'm immediately eliminating them. And people are like, how vain, how wrong? And it just goes to show like, is he not allowed to have preferences? So he has since, I just saw an update, he sort of pulled back that. comment a little bit. He's like, well, maybe not age, but he said, quote,

try to stay away from artificial hips and wigs and, you know, that kind of stuff. So he's saying, I'm an active 66-year-old. I want a younger woman. Since when is preference something we're not allowed to have anymore? Anytime the word preference is brought up, it brings up agism, sexism, racism, racism, everything, when you just have a preference. We sort of touched on it yesterday with our,

bonus show, you know, like, it's okay to think Sidney Sweeney's hot. It doesn't make you a Nazi. Yeah, it's she has good genetics. Do you not think she has good genetics? It's okay to have preferences, guys. We need to relax a little bit. I saw some ass clown on the news saying that

we should stray away from things like the term good genetics, because what does that mean? I'm like, I don't know, like, LeBron James, good genetics. He's a beast. That guy deserves, yeah, he deserves a wedgy. Sidney Sweeney, she's hot, good genetics. The guy probably lacks good genetics. genetics. All right, so you're trying to tell me...

And by the way, when you say Sidney's Sweetie's hot, that doesn't mean she's the only hot person. Yeah, but what I'm saying is the fact that you're not allowed to have preferences and something like the phrase good genetics could be misconstrued. You're trying to tell me black, white, Hispanic, Asian. You're trying to tell me, show hey, Otani doesn't have good genetics? You're trying to tell me that... Tua Tag Ovalia doesn't have good genes?

Tag Ovalia. Valia. So it's just, you know, a reminder here on Kavino and Rich as we film for the herd. So many of the headlines you see, you really got to ask yourself, we mentioned this yesterday, is anyone really mad? Because the answer is probably no. Oh, people are up in arms. No one's usually up in arms. And the person that is mad, do you really care about that person?

Yeah, and if it's some weirdo that's mad, who cares about that weirdo? You're allowed to have preference. The end. All right. More Kavino and Rich. In for Colin next on the herd. Hey guys, it's us The Jonas Brothers, I'm Joe I'm Kevin And I'm Nick
