Overpromised with Covino & Rich

Mike Evans turned Trevon Diggs around to read his nameplate mid-argument, so Covino and Rich play Who Are You Again, a game of sports and pop culture names you forgot. Steve Bartman, Danny Almonte, Jeff Gillooly, Balloon Boy and Kato Kaelin all come up, and Rich finally explains why he was the only one upset about the balloon. Alex Call wants the racy ads out of the MLB playoffs, which sends the guys back through everything they watched as kids, from the O.J. chase during the NBA Finals to Girls Gone Wild and late-night 1-900 numbers. Rich closes with Dicky Doo's Dope Picks for NFL Week 6. #FSR #CRSHOW #OverpromisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tom Brady said "piss missile" and "oh sh*t" on the same Fox broadcast this week, then apologized to the grandmas watching at home, and Covino and Rich are convinced nobody was actually offended. They run that theory through Will Flemming's call for the Red Sox to drill Austin Wells and Arch Manning's apology to Holly Rowe, and ask who is really calling networks to complain. The episode opens with Fury vs Joshua finally set for December 11 in Cardiff, which sends C&R through the matchups we never got, from Whitaker vs Mayweather and Tyson vs Butterbean to Heathcliff vs Garfield, Brady vs Rodgers in a Super Bowl, and Jordan vs Hakeem in the Finals. Rich closes with Dicky Doo's Dope Picks, including a Chargers and Seahawks teaser, Jameis Winston and the Giants, and a 49ers pick of the week that has him promising to wear a cardinal costume every day until his birthday if Arizona pulls it off.

The world is coming together and the New York Mets are coming apart. On Overpromised Episode 145, Covino and Rich make the case that the World Cup is healing the world, from Norway fans rowing in the Citi Field outfield and Scottish fans draining Fenway to Mexico taking over Los Angeles and Japanese fans falling in love with Texas brisket. Then they flip the script on their own team, arguing the Mets just hit the lowest point in franchise history after six errors and a home crowd that cheered against Devin Williams. Along the way: a Brazilian psychic's alien invasion prediction, Joey Chestnut going for hot dog title number 18, and the only acceptable rule for wedding and birthday gifts.

A Michael Jordan prism sticker sold for over $53,000, and odds are you had one stuck in a binder as a kid. Covino and Rich unlock the forgotten childhood sports memories nobody talks about: the quarter vending machine stickers, supermarket helmet collectibles, Helmet Day giveaways, the Beckett book card-show era, and the cards that turned into busts. Then it is World Cup weekend, and foreign visitors are discovering free refills, 7-Eleven Big Gulps, ranch, Waffle House, Buc-ee's, and Taco Bell for the first time. Plus the viral trend of athlete daughters, including Matt Williams' and Randy Johnson's, reading their dads' own career stats back to them and asking if they ever wished they were athletic. Overpromised is the weekly bonus pod from Covino and Rich. Catch them live on Fox Sports Radio weekdays 5-7 PM ET / 2-4 PM PT.

The Knicks are back in the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999, so Covino & Rich rewind to the last time the Garden was this loud. On Overpromised Ep 141, C&R relive exactly where they were in 1999: the radio come-up, Y2K, the Pokémon explosion, AOL Instant Messenger, dial-up internet, Nokia Snake, Britney and Eminem, and the Yankees' three-peat. Then "Read the Room, Bro" — Will Clark, Mike Francesa and Pat Murphy unloading on baseball's tone-deaf celebrations, plus whether UFC on the White House lawn went too far. We close with They Might Be Ass. Covino & Rich air weekdays on Fox Sports Radio, 5-7 PM ET / 2-4 PM PT. New Overpromised bonus pods drop weekly. #FSR #CRSHOW #Overpromised #dpshowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cal Raleigh went from MVP runner-up to an 0-for-38 nightmare, then Logan Gilbert told him to take a shower in full uniform. The Big Dumper actually did it, snapped the slump with two singles against Houston, and now Covino & Rich are deep in the greatest sports superstitions of all time: Wade Boggs' pre-game chicken ritual, Tiger's Red Sundays, MJ wearing his UNC shorts under his Bulls uniform, and the legendary story of Jason Giambi's Gold Thong breaking Derek Jeter out of an 0-for-32 slump. Then the Pentagon drops 162 declassified UFO files and C&R ask the real question — which athletes could actually be aliens? Michael Phelps, Wembanyama, Sam Cassell, Willie McGee, and Juan Soto all make the list. Plus the weekly "They Might Be ASS" - it's a quarter into the MLB season and Fernando Tatis Jr. has zero home runs, Manny Machado is batting .193, Corey Seager is at .184, and Logan Webb has a 5.00 ERA. Even Shohei's bat has gone quiet. What is happening?

Poison front man Bret Michaels joins us the week of the 2026 NFL Draft, in his hometown of Pittsburgh, where he's headlining Friday night of Day 2. Before he hits the stage, he's sitting with Covino & Rich! We get into his lifelong obsession with sports and how it collides with the music world, the posters that hung on his childhood bedroom wall (athletes, rockstars, and women), what the NFL Draft coming to Pittsburgh means to a kid from Western PA, and touring life, women, and the stories he doesn't usually tell. Plus, the guys rank their Top 5 NFL Draft moments of recent history #FSR #CRSHOW #Overpromised #dpshowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After we were exposed to the Rays fan's backside while attempting to catch a foul ball, we decide to cleanse our visual palates with our favorite ass moments. A lineup of athletes with the worst (or greatest) names went viral, so we highlight some of the funniest names in sports. And a new hat promotion with the White Sox has us looking at some of the weakest promotional hat trends out right now #FSR #CRSHOW #OverpromisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
