Are you ready for some football? 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.680 Tuesday night football? And I apologize I'm not singing. We're 0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:47.880 not used to Tuesday night action in the NFL. Haven't 0:00:47.920 --> 0:00:50.159 had one since twenty ten when the Eagles and Vikings 0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:53.280 were delayed because of weather. Bills and Titans square off 0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:57.560 tonight at least hopefully, and with everything going on in Tennessee, 0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.760 we have to see the kickoff before were fully buying 0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:04.440 into this game will happen? I was noticing that the 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:08.039 Chiefs and the Patriots their tests on Monday came back 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:11.840 all negatives, so they can proceed with their week. I 0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.399 think that there's a possibility mccloven, you can help me 0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:17.120 with this, that there's a report out there that they 0:01:17.160 --> 0:01:20.560 may try to put teams in bubbles once they get 0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:23.720 to the postseason. Yeah, the Athletic reported this morning that 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.320 they're hearing from sources that they're considering a bubble in 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:30.160 places like LA and Dallas for the playoffs leading into 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.399 the super Bowl in Tampa Bay. All right, but that 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:35.800 seems like a wise decision to make because there's no 0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:39.160 flexibility there when you get to the postseason and trying 0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:41.440 to postpone a week or if you have a couple 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:43.600 of teams that can't play, and then what do you 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:47.280 do for the following week? There For some fans, Tuesday night, 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:49.840 maybe a silver lining more primetime football could be a 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.560 lot of fun. But there is the concern that the 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.720 NFL is playing with fire with their schedule and at 0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:57.560 some point they're going to run out of room to maneuver, 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:00.720 and that's what you're trying to Maybe you're gonna have 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:04.120 that eighteenth week maybe that's your buffer zone that you're 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:06.360 going to try to be able to get in these games. 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:08.880 But you can't play doubleheaders. You know, baseball had that 0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:11.840 with seven inning doubleheaders. They were able to make up 0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:15.040 some games here. The NFL doesn't have that much wiggle 0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:17.560 room here. But who knows, maybe we can add Tuesday 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.680 nights to the list of times that we put everything 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:22.640 to the side and enjoy some NFL football. They can't 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:26.200 have Saturday night football until after the college football season, 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.960 and there was talk about Friday night football. They're really 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.720 just they're running out of real estate during the week 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:36.040 to be able to get these games in. And by 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:39.079 all accounts, you know, everything is fine now, but that's 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.280 just this week. All it's going to take is one 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:45.200 more outbreak and then you know, if it's another Titans game, 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.280 that's going to have to be rescheduled, and then the 0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:49.960 NFL at some point is going to say, you know what, 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:52.200 the Titans are the problem here. We're gonna have to 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.760 penalize them, and maybe there would be a forfeit, But 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.920 the problem with that with the forfeit is the other 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:01.160 team doesn't get paid. Yes, Polly, it seems like all 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:03.239 bets are off with scheduling though with college football, a 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.880 Big Ten announced they're coming back with their schedule. They're 0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:09.840 gonna have four or five Friday night primetime nationally televised games. 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:11.840 They're gonna play a lot of games on Friday night. 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:15.280 And I understand it. I mean, you're gonna have to 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:17.160 get these games in at some point, and you have 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:19.720 to have that leeway of when you test and then 0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:22.120 getting the results back and then being able to resume. 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:24.320 I don't know how the Titans are able to get 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.200 ready for this game with Buffalo. They couldn't even go 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:30.480 to their facility for two weeks. I mean Buffalo could 0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:34.320 at least practice but and play a game, but you know, 0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:36.480 you can't go to your facility, and now you're ready 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.440 to go on a home game tonight. Brave's Rally beat 0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:42.080 the Dodgers last night with the drama coming in the 0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:45.880 ninth inning, and My Rays beat the Astros four two, 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.960 age seven seven three d P show email address DP 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.760 at Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle it the DP 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:55.600 show pull question mcklevin. Who takes it hard is after 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:59.520 a big tough loss, the player, the coach, or the owner. 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:03.440 People are not buying your theory. Player is running away 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:05.600 with it, then coach, then only a few percents say 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:09.320 the owner. Well, I disagree. I think the quarterback takes 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.720 it hardest because he was on the field and he 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.200 was the one that could control the outcome more than 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:19.720 anybody else. The coach, probably because the coaching in Atlanta 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:23.559 during that Super Bowl loss was poor in the final drive. 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:28.720 But the owner is watching this knowing I may never 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.080 get this chance again. I don't get to go on 0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:33.760 the field and play. I can't do anything about this. 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.840 You're helpless. And I wondered about that with Arthur Blake. 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.120 He gets to own a team, he's a billionaire, he's 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:43.359 got all the money that he ever will need. But 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:47.680 he had to watch that unfold. And that's more painful, 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:51.200 I think than Matt Ryan actually being the quarterback, or 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:55.520 Dan Quinn or Kyle Shanahan coaching in my opinion. Yeah, 0:04:55.920 --> 0:04:58.320 but Arthur Blake hasn't been working his entire life to 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.520 get to the point to play in the Super or 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:02.719 to own a team to get into the Super Bowl. 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:04.960 You know, every other guy on that field has been 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:06.719 ever since they were a kid. This is like the 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:09.880 moment they've been dreaming of but he might be at 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:11.880 some point for the last twenty years saying I want 0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:14.000 to get enough money to buy an NFL team so 0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.320 he could have a dream that's longer than Matt Ryan's 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:20.680 or Dan Quinn's. But I understand what you're saying. I 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:24.120 just think it's the owner. Those owners love to come 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.080 down on the field. They love to be up on 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:29.040 that podium, They love to grab the microphone, they love 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:32.000 to show you their ring. It gets a big deal 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:37.600 to them. And to watch that unfold right in front 0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:40.280 of you and then he comes down on the field 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.800 and then you're helpless. It's not like you can go 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:48.960 and second thought, I'm gonna go back upstairs because I 0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.000 don't know what Arthur Blank did on the sidelines there. 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:54.000 But I wondered about that last night. How painful that 0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:56.640 must be to watch your team. You have to go 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:59.599 to all those games, Like the Giants owners have to 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:03.200 go and sit there and watch a horrible product, The 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:08.279 Jets owners have to go. The Ford family has to 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:11.800 go and watch the Lions play like it's it's as 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:14.320 great as it is. It's got to be so painful 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:17.000 when you have to sit through that, and everybody's got 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:20.560 an answer for you. Everybody got a suggestion for you. Yeah. Time, 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:22.840 But unless you're so competitive and you have such an 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:24.680 ego that you have to be able to flaunt a 0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.280 ring or multiple rings as an owner, you still get 0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:30.200 to go back to a pretty nice lifestyle. But you 0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:34.000 could blow your nose in. You can't buy a super 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:37.800 Bowl ring. He can buy everything. Can't buy a ring. 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.599 I can buy a boat. Dan Snyder's got a yacht 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:45.360 that he's been floating around in France. If I said 0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:47.320 you got a trade in the yacht for a ring, 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:53.440 he'll buy another yacht. Yes, we've all had a weak 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:56.680 ruined by a fantasy football or basketball loss. I mean 0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:59.840 that's fantasy multi buy that buy a thousand for as 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:02.400 owners are stuck with the team, the players and the 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.720 coaches are all going to play somewhere else or most 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:07.520 of them. Yeah, well they can sell it. Dan Snyder 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:11.400 could sell No nobody, you can't. No one sells NFL teams. 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:13.200 Well you know you, but you could and you could 0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:15.520 make a lot of money. It's it's it's I go 0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:19.400 back to this with billionaires. There's so many billionaires, but 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:23.320 how many are relevant billionaires? Like, once you buy a team. 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:27.080 You can have two billion dollars and you're more relevant 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.240 than somebody who has twenty billion dollars. Because there's only 0:07:30.320 --> 0:07:34.680 so many of these teams that are available. There's a 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:38.080 lot of billionaires who don't own teams. How many of 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:41.720 those billionaires do you know who don't own teams? Aside 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:45.160 from Bill Gates, you know, Warren Buffer, there's there's a 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.680 few and Jeff Bezos. Yeah. See, how many of those 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.560 billionaires only owned one team? They almost all have a 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:53.720 football team and then the MLS team and then the 0:07:54.000 --> 0:08:00.560 whatever team. I like being stuck with the team. Yeah, yeah, 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:04.640 I've only got one team, one team. All right, some 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:08.200 phone calls here? Oh, by the way, I saw this 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:13.080 um the Colts Frank Croich said that he is sticking 0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:16.640 with Philip Rivers. Philip Rivers signed that one year deal 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:19.720 and they're not going to go to Jacoby Brissette. Philip 0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:24.280 Rivers has thrown more interceptions five than touchdowns four is 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.960 twenty eight turnovers since the start of twenty nineteen, third 0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:31.440 most in the NFL behind Jamis Winston and Daniel Jones. 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:38.000 That's not a good category to be in. Statu stat 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:42.160 of the Day, stat of the day, dude comes that 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:48.440 what stat of the day. There was a sneaky remark 0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:52.480 by Nick Saban after a little too close for Comfort 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:56.880 win over Old Miss sixty three forty eight over the weekend, 0:08:57.240 --> 0:08:59.920 and Nick Saban said, it seemed like everything we did 0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:02.600 they had an answer for. I'm not sure if they 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:07.199 had our signals or what, but that's not anything unusual. 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.400 It seemed like anytime we called something, they had the 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:14.040 best thing they could call against it. They had a 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:21.040 really good plan. Well, Lane Kiffin debunked Nick Saban's theory. 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:24.920 If you understand tempo signals wouldn't help us. Kiffin said, 0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.760 we call a play basically before the last play is 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:31.320 even over, before they mark the ball, we call our play. 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.400 Then we scrambled to get their play called, and then 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:36.840 they're just trying to get their guys lined up. It 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:38.960 wouldn't do us any good. By the time somebody would 0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:44.080 relay that to us, we're already snapping the ball. Kiffin 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:47.679 says he's never known Saban's defensive signals, even when he 0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:51.720 was Saban's offensive coordinator from twenty fourteen to twenty sixteen. 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:58.920 The linebacker for Alabama, Dylan Moses, was asked if old 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:04.079 Miss had stolen the Crimson Tide signals, and Moses replied, definitely, 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:13.640 I definitely do. If they did, it's on Alabama, change 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:18.400 your signals. It's not illegal to do it. As Kiffin said, 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:20.520 people do it. People do it all the time. It's 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.719 usually people that play slower. People steal our signals all 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:28.440 the time. Yeah, Paully, big mistake here by laying Kiffin. 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:30.480 He should should have been when asked, do you guys 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:32.439 know the signals? To were you still taking signals? He 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.400 should have said yep, and then just throwing a big 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:38.920 wrench into Alabama's plans for the upcoming week. Get in 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:41.520 their head Chris and Maryland. Hey Chris, what's on your 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:45.200 mind today? Hey? Damn, what's going on? Hey? But hey, 0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:48.839 another soul crushing night watching the Chargers. I didn't have 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:51.960 a question. I know I have a question on that note. 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:54.720 So it seems to me like this has been going 0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:59.199 on for ten plus years and it's now like institutional 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:01.559 Can you just talk a little bit from your experience 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:05.040 about a team, it doesn't matter whether it's basketball, baseball, whatever, 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:07.120 that like had to go through some sort of like 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:10.720 institutional change to become a winning franchise and what they 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:14.920 were required to do to make that happen. Well, I 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:18.400 think the Patriots did that. Remember when Victor Kaiam was 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.640 the owner, you know, you know that was in the 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:25.160 late nineties maybe, and you needed a change at the 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:31.720 top and you got it. Um. I'm sure they're numerous ones. Yeah, 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:36.760 mclovin Chicago Cubs, Yeah, you changed ownership and then you 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:41.240 you brought in theo Epstein to um. You know, the 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:45.640 Cubs didn't try to compete for a long time. Financially. 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:48.240 It just didn't feel like like they were comfortable. They 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:52.199 sold out. They had a you know WGN scene all 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:55.200 over the country, and you had Harry Carey, you had 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:57.520 a couple of stars, you know, you'd have Mark Grace, 0:11:57.600 --> 0:11:59.960 you'd have Rhino, you'd have Sammy Sosa and Rick sud 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:02.040 Cliff like he had just enough. He had the great 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.400 atmosphere there. And then all of a sudden, I think 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:08.680 the Cubs go, shouldn't we try to win a World 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:12.679 Series here? How do we do that? Uh? I don't know. 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:16.520 When the White Sox won, I thought that's when the 0:12:16.559 --> 0:12:19.600 bell would go off and go, hey, the White Sox 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:24.080 one one they did. I didn't notice that, trying to 0:12:24.080 --> 0:12:28.280 think who else? Yeah, mcclub the team they paid last night. 0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:31.640 The Saints were laughing for a long time. Tom Benson 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:34.200 and then and the remember the Bucks when I was 0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:38.320 a kid the Buck, Yeah that was Hugh Culverhouse was 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:41.760 the owner. But he brought in John McKay, legendary Hall 0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:47.960 of Fame coach. And John McKay had great quotes. He 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:51.520 was asked after a loss, I'm paraphrasing, and he was asked, 0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:54.880 what do you think of your team's execution? And he says, 0:12:54.880 --> 0:13:03.160 I'm all for it. I love that. Yeah, I'm all 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:08.240 for it. Yeah. Eric in Virginia, Hey Eric, what's on 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:12.280 your mind today? Hey? Two things? Dan. One, with that 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.280 Alex Smith interview, that was great. I'm wondering what is 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:18.480 the greater miracle him coming back or the Redskins actually 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.440 being competitive at some point? What would be the greater 0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:26.640 miracle there? Probably the Redskins being competitive. But on the 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.480 basketball front, with Lebron James, I'm wondering if he's not 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:32.800 being seen as great as Jordan because he hasn't changed 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:35.920 the game like Jordan did from a play standpoint from 0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:38.720 where Jordan took the game and from a merchandise standpoint, 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.960 what are your thoughts? Yeah, I mean, you know that 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:44.960 Jordan had this ten part documentary and that was released 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:50.200 strategically because you know, here's Lebron with the Lakers. They're favorites, 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:52.640 co favorites to win a title. And it just felt like, 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:56.120 now Michael is ready to do this ten part documentary 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.640 and then we're gonna drop it this past year. And 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:03.400 you know, if there was any chance for Lebron to 0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:06.160 have you come up for air and say, hey, I'm 0:14:06.240 --> 0:14:09.720 right there with you, you know, Michael basically, you know, 0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:14.199 suffocated that because you gave that whole new generation that 0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:17.280 has bought into Lebron maybe being on equal footing. Is 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.640 Jordan now all of a sudden, they're watching this going, 0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:23.680 wait a minute, I didn't know anything about this. I 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:26.920 knew he won six titles. I didn't know how he 0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:29.640 won those titles and who he was in his personality, 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:33.040 but it just you know, it doesn't matter. Lebron is 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:36.600 never going to be greater than Michael Jordan in people's minds, 0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.960 just not going to happen. It doesn't matter if you're 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:42.840 over the age of forty, it's not going to happen now. 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:45.680 I'm open minded to it. But that's because my job 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:49.280 is to be open minded to it. You know, Lebron 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:53.960 will have the greatest resume in NBA history in my opinion, 0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:55.440 when it's all said and done now, it might not 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:59.640 be the best player. You can't argue with what he 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:04.280 has done longevity wise. And at this Michael was ready 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:08.560 to bow out of basketball. He was exhausted. And here's 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:12.000 Lebron at thirty five. He reinvented himself, lead the league 0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:16.200 in assist and he's still the best player in the game. 0:15:17.880 --> 0:15:19.920 That's why when people talk about all the Greek freak 0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:21.880 and I said, Lebron is still the best player in 0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:26.480 the game. You know, Luca this, or you know, throw 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:29.600 in whoever you want to. Lebron is still the best 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:36.920 player in the game at thirty five, three full seasons 0:15:36.920 --> 0:15:41.960 to playoff basketball high end. It's like when Kawhi Leonard Hey, 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:45.000 he's averaging close to a triple double. Lebron has done 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:50.400 it for his career and he's the one, the last 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:54.280 one standing. I know that I shout the end of 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:57.400 the wilderness here, but as much as I love Jordan, 0:15:57.520 --> 0:15:59.600 I was there to see all of those shots. I 0:15:59.680 --> 0:16:02.680 covered all of those, and you know, I thought it 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:07.680 was magnificent. It was magical. But if you said, who 0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:09.800 will have a better career when it's all said and done, 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:13.160 if we factor in everything from start to finish, it's 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:19.440 Lebron many more years than Jordan. You know, he's going 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.280 to be what top five and assist He'll be top 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:27.840 five and scoring. I mean, he's done everything that you 0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.120 would want. Now. Is he had hiccups along the way, Yes, 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.280 But nobody ever brings up Michael bowing out in the 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:39.880 first round, right. They don't bring that up, or that 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:43.760 he passes up a shot that somebody else takes, or 0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:48.080 he quit the sport for two years. But start to finish, 0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:51.840 Lebron will have the greatest career. I'm not saying the 0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:56.840 best player, but the greatest career in basketball history. And 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.840 he's not done yet. If he tacks on two more 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:03.920 quality of years, I don't know how anybody touches him 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:06.600 with the numbers that he'll put up. And if he 0:17:06.640 --> 0:17:09.760 only ends up with four titles and he loses six 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:13.480 times in the finals, okay, give me the guy who 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.399 got there ten times as opposed to the guy who 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:20.520 got there six times, because at least we got there. 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.840 Mike didn't. Mike got there six times, he won all six. 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:26.800 Lebron is gone. Like every year that Lebron is not 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:31.640 in the finals, were shocked. Yeah, Paul, And like you said, 0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:34.560 Lebron's career is gonna be much much longer. Lebron has 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:38.639 played like fifteen hundred NBA games. Jordan's at like twelve 0:17:38.720 --> 0:17:42.760 hundred and fifty including the playoffs and counting. Lebron's got 0:17:42.760 --> 0:17:45.520 at least two more years left and deep playoff basketball, 0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:50.440 He's gonna be at seventeen hundred career games played. Oh man, 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:53.840 PAULI is this is this the picture of Arthur Blank 0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:56.399 which before and after? Oh my gosh. The first picture 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.480 he's on the sidelines chopping it up with the missus, 0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:02.120 Oh whoever she is. Yeah, Oh, he's so proud. He's 0:18:02.119 --> 0:18:05.680 got his falcons colored red on. She's got a falcon's 0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:11.240 colored dress on. And then there's the other one where 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:19.120 they got the ball. Patriots got the ball in over time. Man, 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:23.439 that's tough. I'm a billionaire, got a young wife, and 0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:29.240 we're going to suffer the worst loss in Super Bowl history. 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:31.800 All right, we'll take a break here.

Whence the last time 0:20:52.800 --> 0:20:58.520 you were called Carston? Wow? Maybe like seventh to eighth grade. 0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:01.159 I went by cars for a long time in school 0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:04.399 and then my friends, you know, growing up, they just 0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:06.320 kind of took over, and CC kind of took over 0:21:06.359 --> 0:21:08.679 about like right in high school. But then you have 0:21:08.720 --> 0:21:12.520 a son, so you have C C the third Yeah, 0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:15.280 but he goes by Carston, So everybody called from Carston, 0:21:15.400 --> 0:21:19.120 everybody called him Carton. Is he gonna changed though once 0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:21.960 he gets to high school? Uh, he's in high school, 0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:24.439 so he's a junior, and you know, I think just 0:21:24.560 --> 0:21:27.399 living here in the northeast, um, you know, being in 0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:29.720 Yankee Land, I guess it's just easier for him to 0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:33.400 go by Carston then CC. So um, you know he 0:21:33.400 --> 0:21:36.200 he we called him little C for a long time 0:21:36.200 --> 0:21:38.920 and he wanted to be called Carston. Uh in about 0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:40.560 the eighth or ninth grade. So we kind of flip 0:21:40.560 --> 0:21:45.200 flop bunch lunch time. You threw a baseball? Oof? Um 0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:47.800 I tried to throw BP to my boys about two 0:21:47.800 --> 0:21:51.919 weeks ago. It didn't it didn't go to shoulder. Are 0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:56.359 still not there? Yeah, they took you deep. I couldn't 0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:57.959 even get it there. I couldn't even get it there. 0:21:58.440 --> 0:22:01.720 Take it's pretty sad right now. If you watch me 0:22:01.760 --> 0:22:04.840 through a basis, you just see the first picture throughout. Yeah, 0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:08.920 it's kind of like that, right Well. I was wondering 0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:10.520 if you were going to be in front of the mound, 0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:13.080 you know, like should have you know what? And I 0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:15.040 was like, should I go to the front of the mountain, 0:22:15.040 --> 0:22:17.680 because when I was pitching, I always got I didn't 0:22:17.720 --> 0:22:19.919 get mad, but just annoyed when people ran out to 0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:21.920 the mound. You know what I'm saying, like, I'm about 0:22:21.920 --> 0:22:25.439 to go this is my workspace of the mound. But 0:22:25.560 --> 0:22:27.119 then I like that out there, and I went to 0:22:27.160 --> 0:22:28.679 the mound and I get on the mount I'm like, 0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:31.119 this is a little too far. I'm not gonna make it. 0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:32.960 I knew I wasn't gonna make it immediately when I 0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:35.560 sit out there, I was wondering, like a couple of 0:22:35.640 --> 0:22:39.879 things here Walker Bueller has problems with blisters. But I 0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:43.520 don't know. Do pictures get callouses like a guitar player 0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:46.960
