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?
Overpromised is the uncensored midweek bonus from The Covino & Rich Show on Fox Sports Radio (iHeartRadio), weekdays 5–7 PM ET / 2–4 PM PT

On today’s episode, Jason discusses whether it’s fair to say that the Oklahoma City Thunder are more well-positioned for a dynastic run than the Nikola Jokic-led Denver Nuggets or the Giannis Antetokounmpo-led Milwaukee Bucks were before them, the likelihood that LeBron James actually retires this offseason, how the Los Angeles Lakers can build a championship contender around Luka Doncic, and why the Cleveland Cavaliers should be favored to beat the Detroit Pistons in their second round playoff series.
