Worst Sports Insults Ever, Is Boxing Really Your Favorite Sport? + Mets Are ASS | Ep #138

Covino & Rich dive into a high-energy, humorous exploration of the worst sports insults, using real-life examples like Cleveland Browns' Shiloh's 'go make me a sandwich' retort to reporter Mary Kay Cabot, which sparked debate over sexism and context. The hosts unpack the cultural weight of insults—ranging from hairline jabs and 'chopped unk' to the viral 'fat fuck' moment involving Dodgers' Dalton Rushing and Cubs' Miguel Amaya—highlighting how these slights sting even when delivered in the heat of competition. They then pivot to a philosophical debate on whether your favorite sport can change, using Max Kellerman’s provocative argument that boxing is secretly everyone’s favorite sport due to our primal fascination with raw combat. The conversation blends pop culture, sports fandom, and personal reflection, touching on baseball’s enduring appeal, the mental toll of underperformance, and the Mets’ disastrous start to the season. The episode closes with a satirical 'Who Might Be Ass?' segment, targeting players like Cal Raleigh, Julio Rodríguez, Francisco Lindor, and Kyle Schwarber for poor performance, with the Mets’ overall collapse serving as the ultimate punchline.
