But congratulations on your huge win this week. Oh, my parlay? Am I the Bucks NBA Cup? No, the other thing you've been talking about. Oh, my softball. championship. Yes.

To anyone who will listen. I mean, I'm a champion. What do you want me to tell you? I have a deep thought about rec sports. So again, we'll get to that. I have a teaser bet. We've hit our last three. So we'll get to all that.

But another year, bro, come into a close. Before you know it, we'll be 2025. And when you look back at 2024, there were some pretty funny, I guess you would say like hot stories. What were the wild stories

in the world of sports in 2024? Well, when you think back early on. There was no bigger story then. Shohay Otani, the whole gambling saga, all that controversy. Was he involved? Was it all Ipe's fault?

Ipe Mizuhara. Was it him? What a great trivia question. Maybe like five years from now, had a hard trivia in that. Like, what was the name of the fall guy for Otani, his agents with the gambling? Was he a fall guy?

I remember thinking that. Was he paid off? Turns out, Shohei had nothing to do with it. And, you know, it really seemed like it was going to be a really rough start for Shohei under the bright lights of Los Angeles. You know, even though he played for L.A. already. This is the Dodgers, right? You're like, this is not how you want to start.

But you know what? It all worked out. If you live out here, Angels, Dodgers, not have been in the same conversation. Not even in the same ballpark, pun intended. Not only did we think maybe he was the fall guy and Otani was involved. You know my favorite, my favorite legendary story, the story of the Chinese. Chinese farmer, that Tom Brady loves to talk about. Yeah.

Maybe. Like something good or bad happens and you're like, oh, maybe. It's good. Maybe it's bad. This year started out like it was going to be shitty for Shohei Otani. Fast forward six months later, the guy wins a championship for the Dodgers. 50-50. I mean, it couldn't have been a better year for Shohei.

But that story about the gambling really was a big story early on. Wild, controversial. Shohei Otani definitely comes. of mine in 2024. Thinking back now? Yeah. Do you change your mind on anything? You think he was involved at all?

Or you think it really was a shisty dude that took advantage of Shohei? I think it all came out in the wash and truth prevailed. You really think this guy would have been dragged through the mud the way he was if he really wasn't responsible on his own? I do think they were great friends, though. I really do. I think that if that's the case, and Shohei was betrayed. Unfortunately, sometimes when you're elite like Shohei, music,

sports entertainment. Some of the people you think around you that are really on your team are just there for the financial fun and the ride. And it looks like that Ipe dude really betrayed Shoah. If you believe the story that we all know now, it looks like that guy was a piece of shit and Otani was innocent. Yeah, but we definitely speculated, right? Of course, every day.

And another wild sports moment of 2024 definitely has to revolve around the Olympics. Olympics were huge, pun intended, this year for multiple reasons. One of those reasons, one of those big reasons, Olympic junk. When you said Olympics, I'd be thinking, oh, LeBron's showing up.

Remember Caitlin Clark being left off the team? Yeah, I hated that story. But I think that what prevailed really was bulge. Honestly, the swimmer, but more importantly, forget the swimmer, the pole vaulter, whose whole reputation now is, I can't get

over the highest pole vault because my dick's too big. Well, then I posed a question, right? Rich posed this question to, again, anyone that would listen. Do you think you'd rather win the gold or be known as the guy with the biggest junk at the Olympic Games? I don't remember hearing that when he did it. Yeah, yeah, no, that happened. You know, my hypothetical, if you really want to remember what it was, if you didn't win the gold, because clearly you're going to want gold more than anything.

But my question was, if you didn't win gold, is being known as the pole vaulting junk guy. better than let's say coming in fourth place or even winning a bronze for that matter and I think the answer is yes I think unless you win gold

being the pole vaulting junk guy that's a legacy builder yeah congratulations once again to the Frenchman with the massive dung do you remember any other pole vaulting story

in the history of sports no Anthony Amirati right Amirati was that his name the Frenchman who went viral just look at your Google search everyone was like

did you see the guy and you know people were We're breaking HR rules. Everyone was showing everybody at the office. You see this guy's junk at the Olympics. Truthfully, I think about it, most popular bulge since the guy would on the end of the bed, the black dude during COVID. No, but Olympic junk was a huge story.

It was a wild sports moment in 2024. Let me rephrase. And another one that comes to mind. You can say number three on our list is a recent one. This is still a developing story. But I think in the world of wild and solid. It is a hard pill to swallow when you have to play besides a guy that used to bang your wife. We're talking Cody Bellinger to the Yankees.

I mean, Cody Bellinger, his beautiful wife. And I say this respectfully because I wouldn't want someone talking smack about me and my wife because everyone's wife or girlfriend has a past. Your girlfriend, my wife, spot your wife. People have been with other people. But they're in the public eye. Yeah, but I live by a cone and it's less history, more mystery. Well, there's no mystery here.

When you're in the public eye, no matter how confident and cool and successful, Cody Bellinger is, there's no way on planet Earth. He wants to look at John Carlo, especially I was saying this to a buddy of mine. Think of John Carlo, six-fived,

you know in the locker room, he's all ripped and chiseled. He's probably got a huge dong. You think Cody Bellinger wants to look at John Carlo every day and be like, oh, that guy used to bang my wife. No way. He swings a big bat, Rich.

I bet he does swing a big bat. He's six, But again. Sorry, I'm not trying to be rude. I'm being truthful. Professionalism prevails here. And the story goes that Cody was begging his agent to make the deal happen. He wanted to be in pinstripes. He didn't necessarily want it to play alongside the rock in pinstripes, Jean-Carlo Stanton.

But, hey, it is true that Jean-Carlo dated his now wife, the mother of his kids, Chase Carter, but ancient history, man. Let me be respectful and say, I hope it all works out. It just, I ask you, the viewer, the listener. man, woman, whatever the heck you are, would you really want to work beside someone every day that has been with your significant other? And the answer is likely, no.

I mean, yeah, it's not the most ideal, especially when he looks like that, but hey, they're going to win together and I'm excited for it. I have a question for you. Would you be able to root for John Carlo? Let's say your beautiful girlfriend, Jordan. Let me get a better look here.

Put your glass on. What if your... By the way, that bat is to scale. What if you're... Whoa. I'm like the Italian Spider-Man. If Jordan, your girlfriend said, Kavino, I have to admit, before we dated,

when I was living here in L.A., I know John Carlos is from Sherman Oaks. Oh, great, yeah. What if he had got with your girl, would you be able to root for him? It'd be difficult. It'd be more difficult. And you were a grown, 40-something-year-old mature man,

and you're like, I don't know, bro. At least I wouldn't have to see his junk in the shower. All right, that's true. And if I did, I'm sure I'd look like the Italian Superman. Isn't that why you wanted your press pass? There's actual footage of me, hypothetically seeing his junk in the show. There you go. No, that's Cody Belliger in spring training.

Seriously. So, you know, it's a slacious story. It's a juicy one. It's a wild sort of love triangle. And I'm sure they're putting it all behind them for the greater good of the Yankees. But a wild sports moment in 2024. And that brings us to number two. And it is sex related.

Oh, yeah. I was thinking of the bedroom. And I believe him 100% because you wouldn't intentionally do this. I truly believe it was a older dude moment where he forgot how to use IG or Snapchat or TikTok. He hit the live button by mistake. He hit the live button.

And we all remember when Unk, Shannon Sharp accidentally broadcasted I'm sorry, Skip. Him having six. Awkward. The comments were priceless. And listen, an embarrassing moment for him. So I saw him on many a show.

Embarrassing, but he was sort of proud of his performance. I mean, did you see the clip with him in Ocho? Yes. He's like, come on. Come on. Come on. Hilarious moment. Maybe not so much for the woman involved and Shannon Sharp, but a legendary moment of 2024. Shannon Sharp, live streaming some bedroom action. And our number one wild sport moment of 2024 is a two-part doozy. And it all revolves around one of the biggest.

goofiest events of the year. We were in Miami to watch with all our friends. We're talking Mike Tyson, Jake Paul. But remember, there's a lot of streaming issues, and we predicted it. We were like, is Netflix going to be able to handle all these people, all these eyes watching it? And what happened? The feed kept

freezing, right? I had my mom. My mom was like, Stephen, is your TV buffering? Mine's not aware. Everyone was like, is this what's going on? But if you remember, a lot of times it buffered and stopped on the ring card girl. And listen, buffering was a problem.

But the rest of it was fun. The women's fight was fantastic. Oh, yeah. It was a fun time. But I think the highlights had to be, like you said, the ring card girls. This girl, Sidney Thomas, a student at the University of Alabama, went from like hot, it sounds creepy using the word co-ed at Alabama. Oh, my. By the way, got left out of the playoffs this year.

Big deal in sports. That was a highlight of 2024. Look at a big deal. An Alabama student, there was a picture where Ariel Hawani's head looked like it was on her boobs. He was doing an interview leaning over. So many people's TV stopped and paused and buffered, froze,

essentially, on those women. So Sidney Thomas and the other ring card girl, but Sidney Thomas especially became an overnight sensation. She was the one. Bang millions of followers on social media just like that. Listen, they're all gorgeous. And, you know, listen, no one loves a good-looking woman more than me. I'm also a girl dad.

I try to be respectful. I think Sidney Thomas is beautiful. But any girl- Anytime someone starts something with no disrespect. By the way, I'm a girl dad. You know some trashy shit's about to cook. I think Sidney Thomas is beautiful. Alabama, everyone loves her.

The real gorgeous girl that got highlighted because I remember looking up on IG and saw that. I bet you did. From the minute they showed her till the end of that night, she gained hundreds of thousands of followers. And that is this beautiful woman by the name of Raphaelah Belagris. I like how he checks his notes. Like he's pretending like he doesn't know her name.

Seriously, somebody ring the Creepo alert. All right, fine. You don't think she's going to look in? Oh, there's the Creepo alarm. And go back to the stand picture for him. It's Creepo alarm. Creepo alert. I think she's gorgeous and she was one of the ring card girls.

I think, if anything, they got the fight right. We were all intrigued by Tyson, Jake Paul. The women undercard, the co-main event, was better than Jake Paul Tyson. Yeah. And truthfully, I know UFC is known for this, but the ring car girls were gorgeous.

They got a lot of shine. They got it right. They benefited from everyone's TV freezing. It was just paused there, and everyone's wives were like, stop staring. But oddly enough, not the cheeks everyone was talking about.

No, because one of the wildest sports moment. if not the wildest sports moment of 2024. It wasn't the fight and it wasn't the girls at all. It was Tyson's sweet cheeks. Oh, my goodness. And we asked him about it. Mike Tyson and his cheeks. How did it make you feel, man?

Tell us about that moment. Hey, television had really changed, John, but that became a big thing. That's just so ridiculous. Did you expect that to be even a little story when the fight was over? That's not important. I've been that way my whole career.

My butt's been showing on and took a picture of it. What do you most shocked by the people remember? Is it the cameo in the hangover? Is it the video game? Like, what do you shock that was as popular as it was with your legacy? Well, I think it's going to be the ass now. So there he is. You come out with an edible, Tyson's butt cheeks, right, so that people can eat it.

Oh, I like that one. Tyson's cheeks. Sweet cheeks. Tyson's sweet cheeks. I can see you now. You know what? Rich will be the first to eat them. Rich probably wants to eat them right now.

Rich loves him. Oh, God. You got to give me like a little small percentage, Mike. It's my idea. Nice, man. Well, listen, next time we're in Vegas, hopefully we bump into you and we could take you up on that. They will have some Mike bites together. No, sweet cheeks.

Mike's sweet cheeks. I can't believe I've been Mike sweet cheeks. Mike Sweet cheeks. And then the tagline is everybody's eating them. Oh, God. Ridiculous. You got to get this guy the money. Because that was the viral story.

You know, it was the questioning of, was it fixed? But hey, did you see Mike Tyson's ass? Because he was being interviewed. And he turns around and his ass is right there. You know, it also inspired some holiday cookies we made. Oh, yeah. And inspired me to make some new gingerbread cookies. There you are.

Yeah. Happy holidays, guys. And look out for those sweet cheeks under the tree. and in your stocking this holiday season. I love it. Mike's sweet cheeks. And that was one of the highlights of our year, catching up with Tyson.

We wanted the first interviews, if not the first interview, after the fight. So that was pretty cool. Yeah. And if you want to watch that interview in its entirety, it's on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page,

and man, I can't wait to get me some of those from Santa this year. Mike's knockout gummies, sweet-in-go. Yeah, because I want everyone to eat my ass. They look extra chewy. Yeah, yeah.

That's funny as healthy. So those are the wild sports moments of 2024. If you want to add to it, if you agree or disagree, let us know at Covino Enrich at Fox Sports Radio, hashtag overpromised.

Now, before we get to my pick for tonight, Draft Kings, Code, see our show. I got a teaser. We're going to hit a third in a row, I think. Cool.

But, Hey, it's us, the Jonas brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news? Huge news. We created our own podcast

called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just, contributed to 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

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. And, 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 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.

Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, S&L's Mikey Day and headwriter, Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter.

Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Deanna Maria Riva, actress, mother, lover, and a Gen X woman walking through life one hot flash and hormonal crying jag at a time. You ladies know what I mean. I'll bet you a paramed apocal chin here you deal. So let's talk about it. Join me on my new podcast.

How hard can it be with the Adam Maria Riva, where I call on my Gen X squads from Ohio to Hollywood as we navigate Midlife's most fantastic BS. All of a sudden, I'd had hanginess happening on my own. I was like, what the hell is that? I was married when I had her, so I didn't even consider how empty that nest was going to be. Mood swings, night sweats, fupas, sex drive.

Wait, what sex? Dating at 45. How high can it be? Getting naked at 50 with the new guy. That one's kind of hard, no. Well, that's lighting. They say we can't polish a turd, but we're sure going to try. So let's get blunt with laughs, tears, or tears of laughter,

and dive into it, unfiltered and unbothered and ask, how hard can it be? I cannot believe I'm about to say this out loud in public. Listen to How Hard Can It Be with Diana Maria Riva as part of my Cultura Podcast Network available on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I have just a hypothetical and it has to do with rec sports, which is something I think you need to get involved in. Bowling, softball, golf, something, basketball, the pickup league or something. It keeps you active. We all love sports.

What else keeps me active? The gym. The gym. A treadmill or hanging out with a bunch of other friends. And focusing on my working career. That's your priority at all times. Yeah. I'm also with dad and I got other things to do. I need to escape and hang out a bunch of goons. Well, I think every guy should play some type of rec sport. And the question, though, is, does everyone deserve to play? If you're playing in a championship level game, if it is the playoffs or a championship game,

and you keep in mind, you give up your time, you go there, you play hard, you play to win, especially in more of a competitive basketball or softball league, or if you're golfing with friends. Play to win, you say, huh? You play to win. Okay, cool. Taking notes.

Now, though you do play to win, when, let's say you got, 13, 14, 15 guys on the squad because people got other responsibilities. I can't go Tuesday night. It's my kids, you know, recital. You carry about 13 to 15 guys on the team. Come championship time, we had a dilemma.

Like, yeah, you got like 12 or 13 that are showing. Does everyone bat? Now, you play 10 softball, much like, no. So what do you tell? Three guys, what, don't show up or? No, come and support the team that you're out. So, like, on your night. Well, first let me say respect.

congratulations because you won, right? Yeah, we did win. All right, no mercy. Congratulations. A bunch of guys I want to get away from their wives and friends. I mean, a bunch of guys who love to get together. They like to bond with other men and have a good time and stay active. Now, I pose this question to the Fox Sports Radio over Promise Nation.

What is the biggest criticism in the vocification of America and in kids sports? That everybody gets in that bat. Everyone gets a trophy. Well, I'm getting to that. Yeah. everyone gets in that bat. And we're like, that stinks. That's stupid.

But it's okay for the adults. Are the adults not adult enough to just put the best nine out there for the win? Best 10 out there, it doesn't matter. As I was going to say, does everybody get a trophy too? Give me a break. You're adults. You should be adult enough to say put the best 10 out. But you should, you could also be adult enough to say, hey, why?

We have a problem when they do it in Little League. Yeah, but you could argue. Are you a little baby boy? You could argue simply, why are we doing this? You get the camaraderie, the friendships, these are guys that... No, you said you're doing it to win. I'm not giving up my random Tuesday night. Just to slap ass and pal around.

You are doing it to win and do your best. Do you guys hand out orange slices? Give me your peers. You're talking out of both sides of your mouth. You're like, I'm not giving it. You just said I'm not giving up my Tuesday night. That's what I don't like about these goofy leagues. Because you're just going here to mess around.

I don't got time to mess around like that. It's not, it's just not for me. I congratulated you, but you can't say we're going there to win, but everybody gets in that bat even though that guy sucks. Well, no one sucks. No one sucks. You should be adult enough to know that I'm not really that great, and I'm just here for the fun of it, and put the 10 out there that are going to win.

No one sucks. That's the thing, right? When you play at a certain level. I'm sure there's some guys better than others. No, this guy's better. There's guys better than others. So let's say, like, we have 12 show up. Do you bat 10 or do you bat 12?

I'm giving you my answer. You bat 10. Can't be an adult and have a problem when kids do it, but you're going to do the same thing as an adult. What do you tell the other two guys? Hey man, if we need you, we'll call you. We'll put you in. Otherwise, no, so you're in supporting your team.

What do you tell kids that aren't playing? Hi, honey, I'm leaving. Kids to sit the bench, but adults aren't adult and mature enough to handle that? Adults have responsibilities and things to do. Kids don't. Kids don't. I don't know. I think if you're an adult. You put your best hand out there. No, if you're an adult, this is your getaway.

time to the point where if you're saying, I'm going to drive a half hour, go to the field, put on my jersey, and hey, I'm playing. Is it a charity game or is it a game? Just because John and Scott, nothing to do, that means he has to play in the biggest game of your season? But the youth level, I have an answer to your dumb question. It's not a dumb question. You're the one person.

At a youth or high school level or any level, you're building up to guys getting what, scholarships, playing in high school, college, maybe even minor leagues or the pros. When you're an adult, there's no end game. The end game is, I'm staying active. I want to win, but I'm really there to hang out with my friends. So then hang out. There's a balance of, do you play everyone? So wouldn't you feel like a shithead being like, hey, John, I knew you came here.

No, because what would you tell a nine-year-old? Hey, work harder, little kid. You can't say the same for John in the beer league? You can tell an old guy, work harder? He's a grown man. John, hit the batting cages then. He stinks. If John stinks, he stinks.

No one stinks. It's a matter of the effort. And his role on the team is to bring some laughs. He doesn't need to play. That's how I feel about it. So I'm not saying he can't play. This is the biggest game of the year. You said it's the championship.

Spot, what are your thoughts? Everybody gets in that bat. Isn't that the big joke with little kids sports? Yeah, but this isn't little kids. It's grown-ups giving up their time. How do you not see that? Even worse.

We're talking adults. They're not mature enough. Right. Are the grown-ups are going to be sad that they weren't in the lineup? Well, if you drive a half hour, you have a long day work, you have responsibilities. This is your leisure time.

So yeah, and this is also the biggest game of the year. Did they not get up at the whole season? This is the game you're trying to win. Listen, I think you got to be in it to understand it, maybe, but it's an interesting one. You know what? Or it's an interesting one. You guys let me know if I'm making a pretty solid point here. At Fox Sports Radio, at Kavino and Rich.

Hashtag overpromise. Hashtag Rich is delusional. Hashtag Rich is wrong. I think it's only a good conversation because everyone I've asked has a different answer. Rob Parker from Fox Sports Radio all the guys in the editing room it was like split down the middle

like Rob Parker's take was Mike Tyson's butt cheeks You're a bunch of grown-ups Like you're not going to let a guy play What is this? He's like play It's for fun you hang with the boys You're trying to win dude

You're still try to win You're still competitive It's fun in the moment And then after that Yeah let's look at some cheeks We're split down the middle On this one guys Like split like that

Like those sweet cheeks Hey listen here's what I want to do I want to give you a teaser bed that I think is a... I want you guys to hug. A winner for tonight. This is the division battle. Thursday night. So what I'm going to do is go with what I call trends.

I'm not a trend better. I don't follow like, well, you know, those teams, whatever against the spread. It's simple. End of the season, two potential playoff teams, right? Two potential playoff teams. End of the year, division battle Thursday night. What do they say about Thursday night games?

They suck. Traditionally, right? They suck. and low scoring. Broncos are two and a half point underdogs. Take the Broncos from two and a half to eight and a half. So you have the Broncos plus eight and a half. And the over under is 41 and a half.

Make that 47 and a half and take the under. So low scoring, close game tonight. Broncos Chargers. I can't see this being a shootout. And I can't see it being a blowout. So I like the Broncos getting more than a touchdown. I think the Broncos can win this game. They have a better record.

Broncos can be what? 10 and 5 after this game. And listen, under 47 and a half, that's the tricky part because they both do have offenses, but this Thursday night game, this game could be 2017 either, like 2017 chargers or Broncos. And you'd be like, yeah, that makes sense. This is not going to be a 35, 31 game. Two decent teams, going to be a decent game. A bad.
