I could say this. I mean, so was I. Let's see, I'll be the judge. As was I tread lightly. Yeah. I'll, I'll, I'll tread however I like. The Pope is not in good health. You better be sensitive to you.

Can I tell you about the Pope? Oh, please, I'd love to hear about this. I have a Pope story that I'll share with you. But first, let me say, when I see people with the ashes on their head today, there's a sense that it's like... What do you think you're better than me? Yeah, like, what do you think you're better than me? I'm glad you said that.

There's a sense of like, when you're, You show up to work, like, you could have done it after work. You don't need to keep it on your head. There's no rule where you can't wipe it off. My sister sent me a picture. This is like the I voted sticker. Dude, it's the equivalent to an I-voted sticker. My sister Dawn sent me a picture of her and her forehead.

I'm like, so, what are you thinking better than me now? What do you think of better than me? Are you trying to get on mom's good side? You guys need to find God. You guys need to find God. I grew up on Long Island where the dirt bags of the community would go to like midnight mass on Christmas Eve and they made it seem like, I'm the nicest guy. It's like, just because you get the ash on your head doesn't mean you're better than me.

But hey, happy Ash Wednesday. What are you giving up for Lent? I've heard a lot of people say social media, which isn't a bad thing to give up for 40 days. It's tough for us in the world we live in. But I see a lot of people saying I'm giving up fighting about politics for 40 days on social media. So use your Lent wisely. Use it wisely, guys. My Pope's story.

Let's hear about it. I'm not some world traveler, so I don't want to make it sound that way. But on my honeymoon, my wife and I did a little European vacation. like we're a Chevy Chase or something. Yeah, why don't you brag about it? We were walking through the Vatican area. We were in Rome. And it just so happened to be.

Like, while we're walking through there, they were setting up guard rails. We're like, oh, everyone, move out of the way. And I'm like, what's going on here? I happen to be in the right place at the right time. Oh, Weird Al was there? Great naked gun reference. Weird Al was on the plane.

Sorry, Frank. I happen to be in the Vatican, and they're like, get behind this guardrail. And I'm like, what is going on? When I, I, S. You not, five feet from me, the Pope is coming by in the little Pope Mobile. Is this Pope Francis? Is this our current Pope?

What are, whoever the Pope was? How long were you married to go? Who was the Pope 10 years ago? He's been here since 2014. The Pope Francis has been the Pope before that. I was his name. I'd rather have details on the Pope. Benedict?

Yeah. Benedicts? Yeah, Yeah, whoever it was. Did this guy have rims? Yeah,

what kind of chrome rims? Dude, he had a sweet horn though. I was like, blah, bra, bra,

bra. I heard he got where they spinning, where the rims spinning? He had sweet rims. Did they whistle? Probably he went to

Tyreack and, oh yeah, Pirelli. Sounds like a little Jetsonobio. Yeah, the Pirelli's. They sell those at the Vatican. The PZeros.

He had dice on his rear of his rear of mirrors. The Popobial comes by. And I had, we didn't have, you know, the iPhones, I take a selfie video and I thought I had the greatest video ever because I had the Pope right behind me and I'm like, hey, Pope, sweet hat. If you tell me that you have a picture

of the Pope flipping you off, I'd love that. I want to see it. Now, I had this video. No, this is an X-Files finish here. And when I tell you, I immediately felt joy like I can't wait to show people that I got a picture with like of the Pope behind me in a video where I'm like hey Pope and talk about amazing timing right no joke yeah I look at my phone all the pictures I took in that couple minute period were not on my phone as if the Pope has some type of like like a scrambler like a scrambler of sorts I was like there's no way my wife was like what do you mean I saw you take the pictures I'm like I know sounds like user error to me yeah user error with an iPhone you putts. Of course.

Yeah. You know, I agree with a spot. That's like something out of the Omen. I want, I agree to spot. I want proof. With Gregory Peck. That's Omen-esque. I don't believe you. You guys never believe me? About a couple years ago, I was walking around town. I believe. Thank you, Sam. These guys don't believe anything I say. I want to believe. Sam, I was walking around my town a couple

years ago. And there were these two girls in a Jeep convertible. And it said, Hey, you. And I looked over and they both flashed me. And I told these guys a story. And they're like, that didn't happen. Equally believable. Worthless without picks. By the way, I can you believe myself? I'm not lying to you.

How many times does the Pope make some sort of public appearance or something? And he does his, you know, sign of the cross and how do you do? And, hey, oh, Father Carmine, he's out there doing his thing. Rocky. Yeah, but, all right. Father Carmine. All right. Well, when the Pope is out there, people aren't taking pictures and posting them.

I'm seeing footage of the Pope all the time. You act like he has his force field only for your phone. Operator error. Yeah. Explain that. I've seen so many personally taking photos of the Pope. Through a Google search, there's millions of photos. Oh, but it only blocks Riches phone.

So you're telling me, you're telling me... Pope Jammar 9,000. The Pope Jammar 9,000. Yeah, he had a little dude, like a Farnsworth Bentley, like carrying an umbrella or something. You don't think he has, like, a helper that was like, oh, that guy, Zach? No, you know what? The one I think about it, this is the dumbest story ever. You messed up.

Yeah, I think you messed up. There's no way. He scrambled my phone. You probably were doing it. You're just hitting your thumbs on it, and it was just... Yeah. Honestly, you were probably doing it so quick. You were probably, like, so thrown off. It's a Benedict.

Benedict over here. Benedict over here. And you were just like hitting the screen, not even doing anything. That's probably the real story. User error. It's user error. Operator error. I know you want it to be some sort of crazy story.

Rich was this to be this magical, like this magical holy story. I don't know if it's that. I look at it also of like, you know, perhaps me even goofing with the Pope. Rich's immaculate photos. It's the white screen. Maybe. I'm telling you was scrambled by the Pope. Maybe by God.

Scramble by God. The Virgin Mary's in my toast. The Immaculate Deletion. Oh. Yeah. Spot will be here till Thursday. That's what I was looking for it. The Immaculate Deletion.

So I went to eat after that and I saw the Virgin Mary in my fresh motel. I had a crazy day. I had a crazy day. My grandma still has a piece of toast that she worships. So anyway, I remember when we first started doing our show together. She worships. I would say we're not even like. One day we're sitting in our office and Camino was like, look at this.

back in like the early days of like stupid videos on social media there was a guy that thought he found Jesus in his bag of Cheetos oh it was called Jesus he called it Jesus yeah you can find that Google it was it looked like a Cheeto in the form of Jesus on the cross on the cross so we proceeded by buying like 20 bags of Cheetos to see if we can find a Jesus we could not he was special Rich thanks Jesus every day. Thank you, Jesus. For his wonderful career and family. So anyway, happy Ash Wednesday.

Not trying to be sacrilegious here. My family celebrates. If I had time, I would too, but I'll be saying my prayers and eating my vitamins tonight. And I thank you guys. Now, to wrap up, DB actually has a question. Oh, yeah, yeah. I just want to let you guys know while you're making fun of Rich. I did once pull a Dorito that was the Kansas City Chiefs Arrowhead.

And I had a chicken tender from Popeye. that looked exactly like Italy. So it ties up to your point. See? Hold on. Timeout. All the McNuggets looks like Italy. There's only two McNuggett shapes,

the round one and a boot. So you got the one that looks like a boot. Doesn't mean it's Italy. It's a tender. It looks exactly. I actually took a picture of it. I hope it wasn't zapped. It was a scrambled phone.

By Popeyes. I hope not. Popes. Popes. Popes. Yes. Popeyes. God, that's good. You know what? Wishing the Pope well, he is ill, right?

There's going to be so much to cut out of the podcast version. He's, he has been ill, yeah. I'm going to send the Dorito to the group text, and I'll be on search for the chicken tender. I got to see. I thought that was just an Oscars promotion for the movie Conclave. Very good. Do you ever see the curb episode where Larry David accidentally peed

on the picture in the bathroom? and the person thought the, was it, yeah, you have like, focus on what? Are you having a moment? Tell me what to focus on. This is what happens when the caffeine takes in. Rich, you have to say urinate. Wait, we had a dump out of what?

Yeah, you can't say that P word coming out of your body. You have to say urinate. Or just describe it differently. Are you serious? I'm serious, yeah. Yeah, you know the HR course that you have to take? The HR course that Danny took? You know, the one that you paid your kid to take?

Yeah. It was like a whole thing. a bag of candy. I told my kid, I said, keep clicking next, and I'll give you a, I'll buy you some sour patch kids. I'll buy you some sour patch kids.

Not to mention that, Danny G. told us that like a million times. Oh. Just said made a mess on such and such. Larry David made a mess. Start again, thank you. On a picture. A number one, you can say.

A numero uno. And remember the woman thought it was like a sign. That was such a great episode of curb. But Spot told me to focus. So let me focus. I love that story. It didn't matter. We took the buzz out of your story because we shamed you.

Yeah, let's say, Let's talk about the NFL combine, guys. No, trying to talk about here. Ready, focus factor. 87799 on Fox. It's a big story today. Might not sound like much now because details are still coming out. But I think I rolled with your sumo crap for 20 minutes.

I mean, if you want to, you know, disrespect. Wait, what did the Pope in 2011? Larry David did that and then what happened? Tell me again. No, forget, I'm done. I'm done. I want to hear it. I'm retiring.

He rolled with my sumo story as if it was mine. You are the sumo guy. Yeah, I'm the sumo guy. Sumo Steve, they call me. So Dana White has signed a deal with Turkey Al-A-Sheek. A new boxing league promising to make boxing great again. He didn't actually say that, but that's sort of the deal. Best fight the best, starting from the ground up, spreading the wealth out to the fighters,

bigger cards. These fighters get a chance to move up the rank, so they get to build a career. and it's the same UFC model that made the UFC a success. That's what he's hoping to do. Can it save boxing? If you're a hardcore UFC fan, because Dana White's behind this, a lot of funding and a lot of money and a lot of big fights, do you now give boxing a chance because there's one belt?

It's not all this confusion. It's not all this corruption. All right, what's the other biggest criticism on boxing? Oh, man, look at that stupid decision last week. That was a standing eight count. Roach won that fight. That's BS. That's just boxing.

Boxing being boxing. Dana White has the power, along with Turkey Al-a-Sheek, who's really doing so much great for the sport. I know people don't like some of this money and people buying fighters and things like that. We saw it in golf like you said, Rich. But if he could save the sport along with Dana White, does this make you a fan? Do you stop saying stupid things like, box? things done or do you actually give it a shot? I'm thinking this changes the habits, viewing habits, changes the whole sport. I think this changes everything. As a fight fan, I know fight fans are

excited. If I'm a prime time fighter already, I have to be interested in, well, man, there's got to be a lot of money to be made here. Do I want to go with Dana White in this league? Right? Like, this is going to be eventually what matters. What is the IBF belt, the WBO belt, WBO belt? WBC. It's all watered down at this point. It'll be the UFC equivalent to boxing. Does belts just look fancy? There's questions I have. I mean, I think boxing is healthy. You go to an arena. You see the purses

they make. You see... It is, but it's not structured. It's watered down. It's corrupt. What you just said, though, with the IBF, WBO, WBC. No one really knows if you... Linear this. You know, the average... Bring that. The average fan of sports could probably tell you who the WBF. WWE champion is in a more clear way than boxing because one champion per weight division. That's how it should be.

UFC does that right. Again, boxing needs, it's not dead. I'm a huge fan. It needs structure. No corruption. It needs great leadership. It needs money. It needs a fair shot.

We need the biggest fights. That's what he's saying is going to happen. I believe him because he's proven he could do it. When Fury fought Usik, I feel like they both came in with like multiple belts. And I'm like, how could that be? could they both be champions in the same weight class unless they fight each other? Like, it never made sense to me. I don't know if it was like that when our parents were little kids.

I know they just kept adding belt, but it was probably more structured back then. But here's my question. And I'm not saying Dan Byer has the answer, but Dan's a big golf fan. Dan Byer is the answer. That's what I say. And by the way, the Arrowhead Dorito. Oh, I got to see it. He just texted it to you.

Yeah. Don't worry. Oh. Yeah. And I found the chicken tender. Wow, what is that? That's Italy is what it is. Oh my God.

That Dorito is amazing. Yeah, absolutely. That Dorado needs to go to a museum. I'm not even kidding. Right? It looks like the chief's logo. Put it in a shadow box. Of course, I ate it.

But hey. Oh, no. Could have auctioned that off. Of course. That should have been in a museum next to the cross of Coronado. Imagine how wasted that chip would have been if it would have been a cool ranch. Like it needed to be red with the nacho cheese. Good call.

But what was your question about the... Oh, no, I was going to say you're a big. golf guy. And when Liv came into the mix, that did create a lot of controversy and golfers went to live or not the golfers that did, a lot of people shun them, the PGA side of things. There was

a lot of controversy. Yes, 100%. Now, boxing, boxing fans don't seem to care where the money's coming from as long as the fights happen. Boxing is more based on promotions. Golden Boy, top rank, Jake Paul now has MVP, which is a big one. So if it's based on promotions,

does the promotion have the ability to be like, yeah, we can, well, our fighters could fight with Sheik or they could fight with... I hope so, because guys like Golden Boy in De La Jolla already have good relationships with this guy, right? Their fighters are already fighting under this dude's cards. So, you know, we'll see how this works. I'm not sure how that works.

Much of the details to come. But there's a lot of people like the Bob Arums and the Oscar De La Jolla's and the Ed Hearns and the Jake Pauls, all these guys behind these promotions. if they're cut in like, hey, yeah, your promotional company is involved, but so is chic and we're just going to make a ton of money. They're going to cooperate, but I don't know the inner workings. I just think it makes boxing so much easier to understand, so much easier to follow.

If they're signing new people, you get to get invested in these boxers from the ground up. I'm sure there's going to be a goofy TV show to tie into this so you know their backstory, and then you end up falling in love with these fighters. Dana White has done it before. This is going to change the game. Boxing will never be the same after this. Mark our words here on the Kavino and Rich show. Boxing as we know it, as of today, is going to change.

Moving on. All right. Well, hey, thanks for hanging with us. Thanks for listening to my Pope's story. Pope's story was great. It did look like Italy, though, the tender. You know what? If you want to see for yourself, Dan Byer, if you don't mind,

I'm going to post a picture of the Dorito and the chicken tender. on our Instagram story. All right. You got it. I'm going to put it up on X. I'll put both of them. You put it up on X. I'll put it up on Instagram.

Kind of looks like a J too. Could you include your Pope photo too? You know what? If there was one, Danny, it would be my profile picture. Yo, what's up, Pope? So happy Ash Wednesday. Now coming up, Spot. I know he's been working.

So diligently, putting together the biggest stories in the world of sports and entertainment. I did pause for your story, though. So I have to get back to it. You know what? Get on it. We do midweek major. and a bunch more next. Having a lot of fun on a Wednesday.

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 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.

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. Genshin win. I mean, she went down in three, two. Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lerna 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. Listen to the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Imagine an Olympics where Dober's is not only legal, but encouraged.

It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app,

I just like zone out and I power down and I power down and I zombie through the rest of my night Rich Davis is the guy that never stops Can't stop, won't stop this guy You know when I stop? He sleeps standing up When the kids are sleeping and it's like midnight And I still can't sleep and I pop an edible

And watch some stupid reality show It's the only time I'm chill But here's the downside of that Then he watches a bunch of garbage on his phone And then he shares it with me the next day I'm like clearly you had an edible because this is not funny at all. That's Rich. I'm Covino.

CNN on FSR. I'm not going to send you anything anymore. I'll now send them to Sam. I'll be the judge of that content. Now, we are live from the tire rack.com studio. And we still got to talk some Kevin Durant. We got to talk some power couples if we have the time. But again, appreciate your feedback at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio.

Are we ready to do it? We do it every Wednesday. We call it mid. Week Major. Kavino and Rich gets you over the middle of the week with Midweek Major. Ooh, 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. CNR scoring. Midweek Major. I'm still going to go fast here because if we go to buyer on time, spotty, you'll get nine and a half minutes.

I don't know what to do with all that time. More like 6, 7. All right, before we hand things over to the number one and only host of this segment, we like to roll the two big red love dice in the main studio. I roll. Not a 6, not a 7, but an 8. All right. A rich roll now.

That's what the kids are saying nowadays, Danny G. 6, 7. I saw it on TikTok. What did you get rich? 7. Oh, 6. So that means I won. Okay.

All right. so Covino gets first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Bloom, from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, Spotty boy. How are you guys? Hey, Spot. What? Come on.

All right. I'll start. I appreciate you, Spot. Thanks, Sam. I'll start with the story hot off the press. So Tops has decided to commemorate LeBron's legendary milestone with the one-of-one, 50,000 points card. The card will feature an image of LeBron.

and the 50K logo complete with not only the NBA Legends autograph, but a piece of his arm's sleeve from the historic game, which took place on Tuesday, where the Lakers secured their seventh straight victory, 136 to 115 over the Pelicans. A lot of celebs were in attendance last night to watch that game, including Leo DiCaprio. And if you also saw two, Tops is having a week.

They released a John Cena turned heel card, which will also be making the rounds. But this card, one of one, who knows how much it'll go for. We remember the Paul Skeen's rookie card was up on the auction block. So we'll see how much this goes for, midweeker major. Major in every way. I love what Topps is doing. I'm a kid that grew up collecting baseball cards.

The Paul Skeen's one was great. I don't like how they handled it, though. I think there was something fishy about the random kid that got it, never really saw the kid. I don't like how that was handled. They got to handle this one the right way. But I also think that they're giving attention, much-needed attention, as something that I feel fell under the radar a little bit. I know LeBron is a bit polarizing, but what he's doing with Luca now is insane. The L.A. Lucas lighten it up.

And the fact that he scored 50,000 points, that's not a bigger story. He's ridiculous. One of one. This is huge. Props, major story. Yo. Props to tops. I can't disagree.

Honestly, definitely major. Major. I mean, it's LeBron James. 50,000 points. It's absurd. a great night for the Lakers, a great season for the Lakers. For the lucky son of a gun that gets that one.

Think about what, like you said, what skeins they were offered up for that? You don't think LeBron or someone close to him who's going to want that one? Yeah, but when you investigate that skein story and the kid in the card, it does get a little sketchy, like,

so the kid who's what one box, who's in the middle? You know, like, it's just, who's the kid? They really got to cover this one properly. This is a big deal. This is LeBron. Oh. And by the way, just for the fun of it, if you go to our.

I know, Rich, hold on. Here's the difference. Paul Skeen's story has yet to be written. So it's hot right now. LeBron James. We already know he's a great story. This is a big card. Yeah.

On our Instagram story, I did post the Italy tender and the Chiefs Dorito and you could vote which one you think is more impressive. How much is that going to hit the auction block for? Man. I'd pay I'd pay something for that. All right. What else, fun? All right. Eagles GM, Howie Roseman had a pretty colorful analogy when it came to his two Super Bowl wins,

saying that the feeling of victory is a lot like sex. Let me explain. Roseman chopped his analogy on the McShay show this week, where he spoke about the team's recent victory over the Chiefs. Hit it, Sam. So I'd say like the first one's almost like, can I say this? Can we delete this? Is this live?

You don't know what? what I'm saying? You don't know. This is the best part. You can be you. It's almost like the first time you have sex. You're so glad you had sex. It's not even the quality of it.

The second time, the second time, it's like, wow, I could actually have fun and enjoy this. There you go. So, yeah, it's like the first time's like you're breaking your V-card, the second time you're actually living in the moment. He said the blowout win also allowed the whole team to soak it in more this time around, which wasn't the case when they took on the Patriots back for Super Bowl 52, midweeker major. Um, it's sort of mid. Only thing that's major about is this, the GM that said that. Yes.

It's so off color and weird for, like, I can't imagine Brian Cashman talking about, like, sex and being horny and Super Bowls. Like, what? It's just off color and weird coming from him, no? That's what surprising about it. He's a cool young GM who got hit in the head with a beer can at the parade. Yes, he bled, and his flesh was torn for you. I get it, but are you used to hearing people relate that to, like, having sex? But do you think Brian Cashman's the definition of cool?

Then you got other problems. I don't think Theo Epstein, when he was the coolest GM going, would be talking like that. You see, it's just odd. I think you're a nerd, and this is, I do think it is mid, though. That's so mid. But I know what you're saying. Had anyone heard Howie Roseman speak before? Because I didn't think he had that high of a voice.

No. So that added to the weirdness. It was like, yes, it's like having sex for the first time. You know what? Oh, what a joy. That actually felt weird to me as well. That's pretty major. Are you saying that if he had like Danny G's voice?

When it came across better, I'm like, yeah. You know, it's like being in the bedroom with the league. I don't know if I should say this, but I think the guys could relate. Okay. Yeah, that would be like an R&B radio station break right there if Danny G said it. Ooh, ooh, let me. I don't know if I should say, but I think I'm going to. Let's stick with a quick little Super Bowl side.

Travis Kelsey is still wallowing in his Super Bowl loss, but is acknowledging the obvious lack of focus that we all saw during the game against the Eagles. He said he feels like he owes the guys that he comes into the building with. A whole lot more effort in focus. He said, I didn't know what it was during the game. I wasn't at my best telling his brother every time he sees a clip, it throws him back. And he's like, what the F? His brother Jason told him not to over-analyze the situation.

But he says he uses it at his motivation to, quote, create the beast. Kelsey has also commented on saying that he'll use it as motivation in the offseason, get a few extra reps, work a bit harder, watch him extra film to improve his game. also spoke about saying, you know, the fact that he's not retiring and his reasoning saying he loves to play football, still feels like he can perform at a high level and hopes that he'll perform higher than he did last year, not this year, last year, midweeker major. It's major because everything Kelsey related is major, but if you couldn't get fired up in the Super Bowl this year and I don't simply block when you know the world is watching, what sort of go-go juice you're going to discover in the off season to get you fired up again? I don't get it.

I just don't see how that happens. I think it's major. Definitely major. But I could understand. I mean, one of your favorite movies of all time, Rocky, the whole Rocky series, you know, after a little while, he got a little complacent. And, you know, he took Clubber Lang a little light. Oh, Mickey died. And, you know, Rocky had to refocus.

And, you know, sometimes when victory seems to come a little too easy, and the Chiefs have had, you know, a really good stretch, I can see where you're like, oh, whoa, well, hold on. I need to get that eye of the tiger back. So, you know what, hey, maybe run it back and see if you can do it one more time. Well, Kelsey, as you know, making an appearance in the upcoming Happy Gilmore, too, alongside Adam Sandler. Well, the much-anticipated sequel, almost 30 years in the making

has now been given an official release date. That's hot off the press as well. So the release will have a midsummer appearance on Netflix, July 25th. As you know, Adam Sandler, of course, reprising his role as Happy Gilmore. You have Christopher McDonald coming back as Shooter. Ben Stiller making an appearance, a lot of cameos from professional golf players as well. And, of course, other athletes from other realms, midweek or major? Major.

In July? Definitely major. Right? July what? Do we know? 25th. Oh, that happens to also be nudie magazine day. Oh, perfect.

I am so pumped about this. It's also the day after my birthday. So absolutely, it's a movie we all watch. We all love to see where it goes. To see this character again on Netflix, you only have to go out and watch. Perfect, major. I'm down. I think it's major.

Dare I say, I wouldn't be shocked if it's one of Netflix's more successful domestic releases ever. Who's not going to watch Happy Gilmore, too? The Sandman always does well on those movies. Plus, you're adding all the cameos. It's a sequel to a legendary movie. I wouldn't be shocked if it's a top five ever for Netflix. I just hope it's not something that we watch and we're left feeling flat about it. Remember when they did Dumb and Dumber again?

We liked it, but it's like you're trying to recapture that magic. It's not the same. Well, Dan Byer, I know you're a big golf guy. Did you see that you can now be Shooter McGavin on PGA 2K-25? I did. shoot I don't have a PS5. I don't have the game, but I did see that. I think he's quite popular.

I think that's also another reason why you're seeing. Yeah. Dude, if you could be shooter, shoot her on a video game now, too? It's just that Adam Sandler, and I say this respectfully, we love him. A lot of his stuff nowadays, the newer stuff, it's hit or miss, right? Like sometimes like, oh, okay, I see that old Sandler magic. That was goofy and funny. And then some other things he goes for it, and it's flat and awkward.

And you're like, oh, and I don't want that for this, Phil. You know, hoping for good stuff. He was great on the SNL 50th. He had a great appearance at the Oscars. So he's on a hot streak. Oh, yeah, I'm going to keep it going. All right. Do you want to hear about tariffs affecting the NHL,

or you want to hear about a nasty hot dog? Nasty hot dog. Yeah, that sounds a weird. All right, Michigan Summer League is getting a lot of buzz for a new concession item that sounds gross. But who knows might be good. The Kalamazoo Growlers announced their latest concoction on their Instagram page.

It's a hot dog called the Scat Dog, and yes, it's what you think it is, which will be available during Saturday games only. The Scat Dog is a thousand-calorie hot dog topped with whipped cream, sprinkles, a marasino cherry, and served on a custom chocolate cake donut. Their angle is the Scat Dogg is a tribute to the Black Bears that can be heard growling in the forest of Michigan.

Also spelled S-K-A-T with the K standing for strikeouts. in baseball. There you go. The hot dog will cost $10 midweeker major. This is a mid-story. It's gross. Who invented this? Four-year-old?

Could have talked about tariffs. And I want hot dog and whipped cream. I want whipped cream on a donut with a hot dog. This is Rich when he was in Little League. This is Rich last week. Yeah, this is what Rich has, you know, for breakfast with his kids. Snack check. I think this is ridiculous.

But on a funer note, more funner, funner, funner, funnier, funnier. Funnier? Funnier. Funniest. Funner note. Have you ever seen what the scanners? Batman looked like. Beat up up on a pooh.

Look him up. He's like an 85-year-old guy. All right. Well, with that said, to me it sounds like the best thing since Elf put syrup on spaghetti. There you go. All right. Let's go to Dan Byer for an update. D.B.

I always thought the Adam Sandler movie Click was appropriately named because when it's on, I click, you know, to another one. That's one of his best film. It was not a fan. Come on. Henry Winkler, Hasselhoff. You remember the quarter? Come on. Big Daddy, different story.

Big Daddy was on the other day. What's your five-year plan? Don't die? The Las Vegas Raiders have a three-year plan with Max Crosby, given the defensive end. $106.5 million in that three-year deal. He gets $91 million guaranteed. His average annual salary of $35.5 million makes him the highest paid non-quarterback in NFL history. Raiders are releasing quarterback Gardner Minshu, but they also sign guard Alex Kappa, most recently of the Cincinnati Bengals.

Some Bengals news coming up in a second. But first, the Seahawks gave wide receiver DK Metcalf permission to seek a trade elsewhere. He's entering the final year of his contract. Seattle also released wide receiver Tyler Lockett after 10 seasons with the team. All-Pro linebacker Zach Bonn, returning to the Philadelphia Eagles. The All-Pro gets a three-year deal worth $51 million. $34 million of that guaranteed. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott restructured his contract,

freeing up more than $36 million in cap space. Chiefs traded 32-year-old All-Pro Guard, Joe Tooney, to the Chicago Bears for a fourth round pick. Dolphins edge rusher Bradley Chubb restructured his contract so he could remain with the team in 2025. 29-year-old Bengals defensive end, Sam Hubbard announced his retirement after seven seasons. Celtics are without Jason Tatum, Drew Holiday,

and Christop's Porzingis tonight against Portland. And finally, guys, the final numbers are in for Major League Baseball, the final spending numbers from 2024, and no team spent more than the New York Mets. Mets spent more than $430 million in 2024. Dodgers were second at 373 million A's dead last, spending just $66 million. That's with bonuses and luxury tax and whatnot, all that together, the final numbers. Guys, back to you.

Thank you, Dan Byron, by the way, and other shocking news, 83% of people think that your tender is more impressive than the Dorito. Italy fans, I see. You could vote at Covino-Ritch. What's more impressive, Dan Byers, Italy tender or Chief's Dorito? I like the Chiefs Dorito. I vote for the Dorito. At Covino and Rich, you could vote there. And coming up here on Fox Sports Radio,

we're going to talk to little Angel Reese, Kevin Durant. Are they the new power couple in sports? I got some thoughts. We'll do it next. Right here. FSR. Hey, it's us, the 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 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. 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, for 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.

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. Jenshin 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 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. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open. Listen to the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential.

But hey, we had a lot of fun today. We're going to talk Angel Reese in a second and Kevin Durant. But we were just looking at pictures on social media. It must be wild to be single these days. And what someone pretends to look like on a dating app versus real life, every single friend you have talks about the nightmare of like, wow, I thought, you know, I thought she was hot. Oh, my God, he looked like a stud.

And then they show up and it's like, ooh, that's you? I can only imagine. In that moment, what do you do? Do you just go through with the date? Or do you say, nah, false advertising? Nah, you have to go through with it. You learn to love again. Out of courtesy.

and all the stuff. There it was. The Angel Reese Puffs. Yummy. Listen, dude. I mean, I think that's cooler than being on a Wheaties box. She's branded with the Reese's puffs cereal. Wickees box. Weekies. With Rich Davis.

Weekies. Hey. Waka. Wikis. Look it up. It's online somewhere. It's not only online. You made it t-shirt and that we sell at Kavino and Rich.com and it's a picture of me swinging a baseball bat and it says weakies but in the Wheaties font. How many of those have you sold? And like 100,000 of them.

Really? I'm going to get one. There is, when we were kids, they used to have these stickers and they were like fake like parodied food items and things like that. Instead of Wheaties, it was weekies. So, Kavino took a picture of me swinging a baseball bat. Yeah. And he's like, this is funny.

And it's weekies. And if you go to Kavino and Rich You can actually buy a t-shirt of me as weekies. So don't act. Don't act like. Weekies. By the way, weekies, the breakfast of Lamos. Anyway. And then I work with these guys voluntarily every day.

So they've been seen in public attending other basketball games. Breakfast of Lamos. I hate you. Angel Reese was asked if you could pick any NBA player to do a co-ed league with, who would it be? And she said Kevin Durant. and just yesterday, prior to the game, Kevin Durant was asked, you know, what female do you want to shout out for Women Empowerment Month or who do you think is the best WMBA player?

Something like that. He was asked something along those lines. And of course, he brought up Angel Reese. I mean, is this like one of those, like, is it like one of these like terribly kept secrets? And it's, I think it's become that sort of thing. But I just think it's a great couple. Like I love. It sounds so cool.

Heads up, seven up in school. You would touch the girl that you liked. Yeah. So obvious. Yeah, duck, duck, duck, goose. Yeah, like, who's the goose? The girl you ever crush on? I think this is great.

You know, in a world where people are just a bunch of haters and they hate on everything, how could you hate on two elite athletes that love basketball that are passionate? And I feel like in the liking, I just feel like Kevin Durant needs a good woman. I do, right? Like, if you've seen him being interviewed on David Letterman or just recently he was crying about what the Olympics meant to him, there seems to be a deeper, sweeter side to Kevin Durant. When have you ever seen Kevin Durant date anybody? That's what I mean.

He's kind of an enigma. For real. Like I don't think, I think of him as a basketball machine, a scoring machine, not necessarily like this romantic guy has any time for love in his life. And if this is like the next chapter of him, I think he's earned it. And I'm happy for him. And I think they're a great couple. I really am.

I wanted you to think. I think it's kind of cool. I wanted you to think of the reality of the situation. If they were indeed a couple. Are they the most athletic couple out there right now? Or would you say, well, Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf just won a paddleball, pickleball competition recently. I saw that.

You're going to go with them? No. But they're still doing it. Simone. They won a pickleball tournament like two weeks ago on ESPN. I mean, Simone Biles. Who's her husband again? Place for Chicago.

Yeah. Was it Owens? Owens. You got to put them up there just the fact that he's. He's in the NFL. Yeah, but the fact that you couldn't even think of his name. I should know. It shows you that Kevin Durant and Angel Reese have to be up there, if not number one.

Jonathan Owens. Jonathan Owens is a safety. You got to guarantee their kids going to be in the NBA if they were to last and stick together. My only, I guess, question here is like Iowa Sam alluded to. I don't know. I'm sure Kevin Durant's had relationships, but I've never seen him in a long-term relationship. I hope he doesn't ruin this relationship because he doesn't have a lot of of serious experience in this department.

I mean, you know, every time there's a couple, it's not necessarily athletic, like Sierra and Russell Wilson, Jazeel and Tom, Kate Upton and Verlander. I mean, Gabrielle Union and Dway, J-Lo and A-Rod. It's usually like one star and an athlete. So are they number one? Think about it. We'll see you guys tomorrow. Ariravidates you, baby. See you in the promised land.

Goodbye, guys. 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.
