The Great Al Michaels will stop 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: by in the final hour of the program. Spend a 15 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: lot of time first hour talking about Baker Mayfield shutting 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: it down, surgery time. Why now, why not play in 17 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: the final game of the regular season? What's changed? And 18 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 1: it feels like this would be a great show down 19 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: and the season beat the Cincinnati Bengals, Joe Burrow and 20 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: the Bengals. But Baker is going to shut it down. 21 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: I still go back to when the injury was diagnosed, 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: when he first suffered it, and I wondered, how long 23 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: do you play with the torn labram? Now granted it's 24 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: on his non passing shoulder, but still that's a lot 25 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: of pain. Every time that you're brought to the turf, 26 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: you're going to feel that. And he was sacked nine 27 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: times against the Pittsburgh Steelers. When you play through pain, 28 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: you get more credit when you're successful, But when you're not, 29 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: then that's when we hold you accountable of should you 30 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: be playing. If Kurt Gibson strikes out against Dennis Eckersley 31 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: in the World Series, you know what we say, he 32 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: shouldn't have been up there. What's Tommy Less sort of doing. 33 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: He could barely walk to the plate. If Kurt Schilling 34 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: gets lit up against the Yankees, Oh come on, did 35 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: you see the ankle? He should have been out there 36 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,919 Speaker 1: in the first play. If Willis Reid goes out against 37 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: the Lakers in Wilt Chamberlain and Wilt lights him up 38 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: for thirty, he should never have been out there. That's 39 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: how we do it in the media, that's how we 40 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: do it in society. Baker Mayfield did not succeed if 41 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: he did succeed, like Aaron Rodgers has been playing with 42 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: a broken toe. Aaron Rodgers broken toe, unbelievable. He's going 43 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: to be the MVP number one seed. Remember Tiger Woods 44 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: with a broken leg two thousand and eight, when the 45 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: US Open beat Roco Mediate Kerry strugg when's a gold 46 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: medal lands Alana a, whoa, it's broken? What if she 47 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: didn't perform? Well, what if the US did not win 48 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: the gold? She never should have been out there. It's 49 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: when you're injured and you succeed, we never forget it. 50 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: I see Michael Jordan eat that pizza, I mean all 51 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: the food poisoning. Yeah. And then a similar game where 52 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan had a flu which was also in Utah. 53 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: Which one is it? And another game where Mike was 54 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,359 Speaker 1: in Atlantic City and was gambling all night and came 55 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: back and towards the Knicks the old brown bottle flu. Yeah. Yeah, 56 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: I was out in Park City, Utah over the holiday break. 57 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: Did you go to the pizza joint? Uh? No, I didn't. 58 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: That pizza was delivered, but that was in Salt Lake. 59 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: But there are still people who worked a party for 60 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: Michael who swear that that had nothing to do with 61 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: food poisoning. But I said, it's you're a Utah jazz fans, 62 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: and I said come on, and they're like, okay, just 63 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: saying we know that, we know the story, we know 64 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: the truth. And I go, all right, well, good luck 65 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: trying to convince other people with that, and they were like, no, 66 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: nobody wants to listen outside of Salt Lake or Utah. 67 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: Nobody wants to listen to that. They we love the 68 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: story Mike with food poison although he changed it from 69 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: the flu game, like why, Like the flu game is 70 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: so great food poisoning. Now I'm bringing in somebody else, 71 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: the delivery guy, somebody else was there, Mike didn't. Nobody 72 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: else got to eat Mike's pizza. Yeah, I've always thought, 73 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: I really believe this, that Mike's ego or confidence whatever 74 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: were you want to use is so big that I 75 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: don't get the flu. Someone had to take me down, 76 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: someone had to poison me or food poison me, Like 77 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: I'm always ready for games. And he shifted the blame 78 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: from the flu, which would be weirdly on him, to 79 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: an outside influence. But why now, why did he wait 80 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: for the documentary to say, you know, by the way, 81 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: he never does interview. It's one of the most famous 82 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: games in NBA history. I was there when he walked in. 83 00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan was gray, his complexion was gray. He was sick. 84 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what from. But when you save food poisoning, well, 85 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: now I got to bring in the guys. How many 86 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: guys delivered the pizza. You know, nobody else had the 87 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: pizza and it was just Michael who got sick. But 88 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: Mike turned in one of the great games in NBA history. 89 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: That's why if Michael went out there and didn't play well, 90 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: then we'd be like, why aren't you resting him so 91 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: we can play the next game. When you win, we 92 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: love to acknowledge that you played through pay. But when 93 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: you don't like Baker Mayfield, then it's going to be exacerbated. 94 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: And this is a situation where I think they would 95 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: have been better served by playing Case Keenom a healthier 96 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: Case Kingdom than Baker Mayfield against Polly. I just gotta 97 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: go back real quick for something with the Michael Jordan 98 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: flu game, because you'll appreciate this. Stuart Scott was in 99 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: the chair at Sports Center that night. You were on 100 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: the road with the NBA Finals, of course, and Stuart 101 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: Scott opened the highlight that night. Maybe it was takeout food. 102 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: The hotel that Michael Jordan is staying at in Park 103 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: City has no room service. He opened his highlight with that. 104 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: Now that could have been so we're just throwing something 105 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: out there because he was not there. But that's how 106 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: he opened this sports center that night. I don't know. 107 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: Stewart was well researched and good friends with Michael Jordan. 108 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: I get that video audio for you. Okay, that is interesting, 109 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:27,799 Speaker 1: very interesting. M Yeah. See I kind of appreciate Michael 110 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: Jordan's sitting on that story for so long. Actually, do 111 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: you think he said, I'm gonna save it for the documentary. Yeah, 112 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 1: like if you know who killed JFK, you're not gonna 113 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: By the way, I just want to get this out 114 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: there real quick so everybody knows. Like, No, I'm just 115 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: gonna hold it for a bit until I could really 116 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: use it. Welcome to the program. It's our two. Make 117 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: sure you go to Dan Patrick dot com. Todd Fritz 118 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: has six different Limerick greeting cards. Limerick cards for his 119 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: and her birthdays, Thanksgiving, Hanaka, Christmas, New year, win or lose, 120 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: we celebrate. They're really beautiful limerick cards. The cards themselves are, 121 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: and Todd is very proud of them. So do Todd 122 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: of favor and at least look at them. I would 123 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: appreciate that, Thank you, Todd. Yes, Pony, I can't believe 124 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: we have those. Well, you know, Seton says, why don't 125 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: we just have Todd write some limericks for the holidays? 126 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: I go, yeah, I mean I'm fine with that. Why 127 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: don't we actually try to get something off? Yes, yes, 128 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: they've been painful so far, maybe we get something in return. 129 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: It's a very viable reason to do that. I got 130 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: it it. Though. There are times that I hear you 131 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: do reads like that, like to Pauli's point that I'm like, 132 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: what we really do? I know, Oh, I know, I know. 133 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: We have a few other things coming out in the 134 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: new year that you're gonna go, wait, you're doing what 135 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: on this program? Yes, Pony, do you I think we 136 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: should sell? My daughter's got these things for I think Christmas. 137 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: They're like hooded sweatshirts, but they're more of like a 138 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: blanket hooded sweatshirt. It's about four sizes too big, and 139 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: you can kind of live in them. It's got a 140 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: like a you know, like a fleece hood and they're huge. 141 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: I think we should make these for adults for watching games, 142 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: because I mean my kids, they've been wearing them twenty 143 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: four hours. Is it like a sleeping hoodie. It's like 144 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: a snuggie that's cut off at the waist so you 145 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: can walk about. They are popular. Let's go great, we 146 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: can do it nap and watch games silence. And I 147 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: think we're working on a T shirt. I think we're 148 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: working on a big T shirt here. Tomorrow will reveal 149 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: a new T shirt guaranteed to sweep the nation. Love it. 150 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: It's an Aaron Rodgers ish inspired by Aaron Rodgers. Have 151 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: that for you coming up. It's been over three months 152 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: since Kyrie Irving played for the Brooklyn Nets, but the 153 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: weight is finally over. He makes his season debut tonight 154 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: against the Pacers, and even though their record might not 155 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 1: show it, the Nets have missed him. They've asked thirty 156 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: three year old Kevin Durant thirty two year old James 157 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: Harden to shoulder the offensive load here. So far, Durant's 158 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 1: playing an inordinate amount of minutes here, and the Nets 159 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: came come into tonight's game on a three game losing streak. 160 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: They just lost to the Grizzlies at home. They lost 161 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 1: to an injury played Clippers team. But Kyrie's return is 162 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: not going to magically solve the Nets problems. He remains unvaccinated, 163 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: which means he can't play in home games, only road games. 164 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 1: He's going to have an impact on the team. He's 165 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: a great talent. Better to be interesting to see how 166 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: all this plays out the rest of the regular season, 167 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: But more importantly, when you get to the playoffs, what 168 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: cities are going to change their vaccine mandates here? And 169 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: it seems like it's very fluid right now. Of you 170 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: can play in that city, no, you can't play in 171 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: that city, And there's certain ones that are going to 172 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: be a little bit more stringent on lockdown here. But 173 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving is coming back to the Brooklyn Nets poll 174 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 1: question for our two Seaton poll question for hour two. 175 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: Dan very excited about this. As you stall for time, Yeah, 176 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: it should learn you learned from mclovin. Yeah, yes, did 177 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: should you let off field factors influence your MVP vote? 178 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: Right now? We're at sixty Okay, that's a lot saying 179 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: yes that Aaron Rodgers should he be held accountable, and 180 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: that's fine if you want to, But what is the 181 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: off field violation? The coverage? The coverage led to maybe 182 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: being blown out against the Saints Week one. He didn't 183 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: hold out, Well, he wasn't. It didn't test positive for 184 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: you know, drugs, or it wasn't a DUI, It wasn't 185 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: anything like that. What's what's the sports crime here? Did 186 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: he deceive the media? Absolutely? And the media I think 187 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: is going to hold him accountable. And I said this 188 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: at the time, somebody will hold him accountable for the 189 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: mvpick and I certainly understand it. Hub Ark actually said 190 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: it out loud on six seventy the score in Chicago. 191 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: I don't think you can be the biggest jerk in 192 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: the league and punish your team, in your organization and 193 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: your fan base the way he did and be the 194 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: most valuable player. Has he been the most valuable on 195 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: the field. Yeah, you could make that argument, but I 196 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: don't think he is clearly that much more valuable than 197 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor or Cooper Cup or maybe even Tom Brady. 198 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: And so from where I sit, the rest of it 199 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: is why he's not going to be my choice. Do 200 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: I think he's going to win it? Probably? You know, 201 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: a lot of the voters don't don't approach it the 202 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: same way that I do. Others do who I've spoken to. 203 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: But one of the ways we get to keep being 204 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: voters is we're not allowed to say who we are 205 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: voting for until after the award has been announced. I'm 206 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: probably pushing the envelope by saying who I'm not voting for, 207 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: but we're not really supposed to reveal our votes. And 208 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: he can't lose his job because he owns Pro Football Weekly, 209 00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: that's where he works. But he's a long time Bears employe, 210 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: and I'm going to guess that has to factor into 211 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: a certain degree that consciously or subconsciously his feelings about 212 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. But you know, he's voting how he wants 213 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: to vote. And if that's the criteria or lack there 214 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: of a structure with the voting process that nobody says, hey, 215 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: don't factor in off the field. Nobody says factor in 216 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: off the field. That's his opinion with Aaron Rodgers. But 217 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: Rogers has been so good. Actually, what has happened is 218 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: you haven't had a lot of great seasons turned in 219 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 1: by other quarterbacks. I mean, Mahomes had a dip here, 220 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: Josh Allen didn't live up to expectations, Kyler Murray had 221 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: a dip. Dak didn't play up to expectations. Tom Brady 222 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,319 Speaker 1: is there, but the fact that the Packers have the 223 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: number one seed should be factored into this. You want 224 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: to hold him accountable for the Kansas City game, go ahead. 225 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: As far as he's a distraction and that's why they 226 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: lost to the Saints, I'm not going to buy into that. 227 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: You got home field advantage. Now, if he didn't have 228 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: home field advantage, then maybe you could have a stronger argument. 229 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: If hub was going to mention those things, like be 230 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: more specific. I think if you say, look, he's the 231 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: biggest jerk, Okay, so is Barry Bonds. Nobody held that 232 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: against him. I don't know if anybody came out and said, 233 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: you know, he's the biggest jerk and I'm not going 234 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: to vote for him. By the way, interesting information on 235 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 1: the voting for Barry Bonds for the Hall of Fame. 236 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: Right now he's trending towards getting into the Hall of Fame. 237 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 1: Had that for you coming up?

Can 287 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: I tell you a story story from married life that 288 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: has put me in this position? Sure? Okay, so um 289 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: as you can tell and your viewers can tell just 290 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: from this little snapshot. I obviously have a very fine 291 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: luxury vehicle and I bought it recently, and about a 292 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: month ago, my wife said, we need new tires, Like, no, 293 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: we don't. Just got the car a year ago, definitely 294 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: don't need new tires. She said, we need new tires, 295 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: and I, you know, I said, okay, yeah, I'm not 296 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: how to say this, you know, my I should be. 297 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: I kind of felt like, you know what, that's my territory, 298 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 1: this is the car, this is the tires. Like I know, 299 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: that's an achronistic. But I'm just being honest with you, 300 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: my friend. So two weeks later, she and I are 301 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: driving doing some Christmas shopping West Side Highway in Manhattan, 302 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: feeling flat tire and I swear Dan, I tried to 303 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: ignore it. I tried to just pretend it did wasn't happening. 304 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: And my wife says to me, she says, wrong with 305 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: the car, and I again, I don't know what my 306 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: plan was. I said, nope. She looks, she looks out 307 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: the window. She said, pieces of the tire are flying off. 308 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: So I'm on the west Side Highway. I find there's 309 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: no good place to pull over. I pull over. She's like, 310 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: I'm calling Triple and I'm like, no, you're not. I'm 311 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: doing this myself, fixing this tire. So I changed the tire. 312 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: Do that like I told you, we need new tires. 313 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, baby, you're right.

But as soon as the 319 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: phone rang, I was like, Jesus Christ, I bet we 320 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: have another flat tire. She calls me.

My wife thought I was gonna fail. 330 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: You are a lug nut. Well, thanks for joining us here. 331 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: Where do you want to start? Do you want to 332 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: start with Aaron Rodgers? Is a jerk? Baker Mayfield shutting 333 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 1: it down? Why now not last week Jim Harbaugh's story. 334 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: Let's start with Aaron Rodgers. Let's start with Aaron Rodgers 335 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: because the hub Artish interview happened on the Parkins and 336 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: spiel Show on six seventy to score. And I'm not 337 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: sure if you're familiar with Danny Parkins, but I've known 338 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: him for twenty years. He and I did college radio together. 339 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: I think he's the best local talk radio host in 340 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: America on the sports scene. So I'd like to start there, 341 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: give him a shout out. Here's the thing. I think 342 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers the MVP. I also think this idea. The 343 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: unanimous Twitter response was, oh my god, there's why media 344 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: shouldn't have votes. Oh my god, the you know, the 345 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: so before Dan, the woke mob comes to put poor 346 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: hub Arkish in a canceled culture casket. Let me say this. 347 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: The line of reasoning that hub Arkish used to not 348 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: vote for Aaron Rodgers is used all the time in 349 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: MVP discussions. I had to hear about how Brady, Why 350 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 1: is Brady the MVP even when he hasn't the numbers? 351 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: Oh my, he brought his team together, he helped build 352 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: the roster, he held offseason activities. We always use not 353 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: just the numbers to make or not make MVP cases. 354 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: So Arkish feels Aaron Rodgers, you know, non number stuff 355 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: works against him. I agree it works against him. It's 356 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: just it's to me it doesn't work against him enough. Like, yes, 357 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: he maybe cost them the week one game with the 358 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: distractions and played terribly certainly costing them the Chiefs game, 359 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: but despite that, they're still the one seat. So I 360 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: don't so I don't think Hubarkish's argument is a ludicrous one. 361 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: I just think Rogers on field excellence and the Packers 362 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: excellence is enough to overcome it. But I think it's 363 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: totally fair to say how good of a teammate are you, 364 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: how much of a distraction do you cause in a 365 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: way that as part of the MVP discussion. I think 366 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: if he had chosen different words than people would have 367 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: had a different reaction. If you say that he's the 368 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: biggest jerk or whatever, you can say, Look, he was 369 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: a distraction cost his team week one, and we could 370 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: argue that, but I think there's validity there what happened 371 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: with Kansas City and at the time I said on 372 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: the show, this will be held against Aaron Rodgers in 373 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: the MVP race. It's going it should, yes, and it should, 374 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: and I have no problem with that. I just think 375 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: that the language or it felt like, Hey, here's a 376 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: Bears guy and he's going in on a Chicago radio 377 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: station in a season where Rogers says I still own you, 378 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: and you're playing to your audience a little bit there 379 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: I think if the language was a little softer with it, 380 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: that Hub could have gotten his argument through and more 381 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 1: people would have understood it and said, yes, you're right. 382 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: I also think it does reveal this part of it. 383 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: I think how many people vote for the Heisman Trophy, 384 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: Like I assume mclovin, even though he's gone now, I 385 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 1: think he got a Heisman Trophy vote when he left, 386 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: like that was part of the package. Like, I think 387 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: it A thousand people vote for that. Yeah, I think 388 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: that's too many. I think fifty NFL MVP voters when 389 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: they only submit one name, not even a full ballot, 390 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: that's probably too few. Like, Yeah, I think the NBA 391 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: probably has it right. A hundred voters and you submit 392 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: a one through five. That way, the margin for error 393 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: is to me, it's not as likely to get screwed 394 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: up by a few people, And so I think that 395 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: maybe you could look at it that way. But I 396 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: think the media should still vote on these things. I 397 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: don't think it's perfect, but I think it's better than algorithms, 398 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: and it's certainly certainly better than players who are gonna 399 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: have their own biases. There. We're talking to Nick, right, 400 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: First things first, and also a part time mechanic. He'll 401 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: work on the pitch during the NASCAR season as well, 402 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: only European cars. Dan oh so f one, Yeah, exactly 403 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 1: me and Lewis Hamilton, Oh, I like that. Do you 404 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: believe that Jim Harbaugh is considering might be interested in 405 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: returning to the NFL? You know, so one of my 406 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: best friends, I'm going to give another show. Got a 407 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: lot of friends. Does this guy? Does you? Danny Parkins 408 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: and Laslow? Laslow does rock radio in uh Kansas City 409 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: or actually nationwide, and he's a diehard Michigan fan. And 410 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: he said this to me a month ago, and I 411 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: thought he was full of it. He goes, doesn't it 412 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: feel like the ultimate Harball move? To finally beat Ohio State, 413 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: to finally win the Big Ten and then say, deuces, 414 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: you guys cut my pay. You guys made me eat it. 415 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: So I've done. I've come, I've done what I said 416 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: I was gonna do. I've done it. Now I'm out. 417 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: And when he said it, I thought he was nuts. 418 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: But it seems reasonable. And while I think there is 419 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: going to be a chilling effect on hiring college coaches, 420 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: Hardball might be the exception there because he already had 421 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: great success in the NFL. I think there's something to it. 422 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: I wondered if he lost to Ohio State, was he 423 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: then going to leave and go to the Chicago Bears. 424 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,199 Speaker 1: Now you win. And I also find the reaction to 425 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: the win against Ohio State and the blowout laws against 426 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: Georgia are very interesting and very telling in an arbor 427 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: because it's we beat Ohio State. Yeah, but you got 428 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: blown out embarrassed against Georgia. Yeah but we beat Ohio State. 429 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: If it was reversed, Ohio State fans, yeah, we beat Michigan. 430 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 1: But man, we got we got some issues. We got 431 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: blown out by Georgia. I don't know what Michigan's tolerance 432 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: level is that as we move forward, you're never gonna 433 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: out recruit Ohio State. Well that's a list. The thing is, 434 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: and you know this better than me, but Michigan and 435 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 1: Ohio State are arrivals, but they are not in the 436 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: same class historically in college footb Like, what does Michigan 437 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 1: have one championship in the last what sixty years or something? 438 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know the numbers. I just know, 439 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 1: you know, I obviously used to do the show with 440 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: Chris Carter's Ohio State guy, and whenever this would come up, 441 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 1: he would show me side by side, big ten titles, 442 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: national championship, like Ohio State is historically a far better 443 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: program than Michigan. And so to me there is It's 444 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 1: not Alabama Auburn, but it's probably closer to Alabama Auburn 445 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: than people think it is. The Kyrie situation, I know 446 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: you've been close to it with the Nets, and now 447 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: he's coming back, but then he can't play home games here, 448 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: and you know the vaccine mandate city by city. It 449 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: seems very fluid right now. But what is that your 450 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: tire guy right there? Yeah, Dan, I'm gonna have to 451 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: take this on the show on the road. So you 452 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: keep asking about Kyrie, Okay, go ahead. There's gonna be 453 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 1: a little rain here, buddy, but he can make it through. 454 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: I'm here for you, Dann Patrick Kyrie. So, yeah, Kyrie, 455 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: how do you think this plays out with the Nets 456 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: and Kyrie? Terribly? It's an awful idea. I can't believe 457 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: they're doing it. Everyone agreed it was a terrible idea. 458 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: Then the Nets said they were doing it, and so 459 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: people are pretending it can work and can't work. Here's 460 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: the only way it could work, Dan, and I'm gonna 461 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: try to get out of the rain for your wonderful 462 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: viewers and listeners. If they made him the sixth man. 463 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: If they made him the sixth man, I think that 464 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: could work. If they were like, we need Katie and 465 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 1: Harden with as many critical minutes together, but you can 466 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: add some punch off the bench in road games. Fine, 467 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: But they're not going to do that. So I think 468 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: the more instant question is this, if they're gonna go 469 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: along with this charade that this actually can work, shouldn't 470 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: they intentionally make sure they're no better than the fifth seed. 471 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: If their argument is we are better with all three 472 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: of them, then don't you want to start every playoff 473 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: series with two games with all three of them, and 474 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: any potential game seven have all three of them. It's 475 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: not like, oh, we're gonna miss out on the amazing 476 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: home court advantage of Barclays. They were chanting for John 477 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: Moran NBPA Barclays a couple days. So I think I 478 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: think if they're gonna do this, but that's why I 479 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 1: don't think it'll work, because it's like winning is good, 480 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: but you know what's also good losing. Losing is good too. 481 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: I think the whole thing is insane. Yeah, I just 482 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: think it's an insane idea, and I don't think a 483 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 1: serious organization would engage in it. That's what I think. 484 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: Before I let you go and you attend to your tires. 485 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield situation. I don't know why he's shutting it 486 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: down now, didn't shut it down before. And it feels 487 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: like he said I'm not going to play, I'm gonna 488 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: have surgery. And then the Browns have to kind of 489 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 1: acquiesce and say, yes, he's shutting it down, and what happened? 490 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: Why not play this next week against your hated rivals, 491 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. But I don't know. And by the way, 492 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: the one team Baker has owned in his career or Cincinnati. 493 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: His numbers against Cinnati are amazing. Is everyone else not great? 494 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: I think he's handled this whole thing terribly. I think 495 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: that if he shut it down, he would still probably 496 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: not shut it down. But if he would have gotten 497 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: surgery when he needed it three months ago, missed five weeks, 498 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: come back healthy, maybe he gets a contract. I also think, 499 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: and this is the point I made on the show 500 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 1: the other day, and I'll make it again here. We 501 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: always hear about all these bet on yourself success stories, 502 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: and that's because the people who bet on themselves and 503 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 1: lose don't tell their stories. They're just sad. Baker Mayfield 504 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: is a great example of bet on yourself not being 505 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: a great idea. Always. If he would have taken the 506 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: Brown's final contract offer this offseason, call it thirty million 507 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: a year with sixty million guaranteed, not only does he 508 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: then have sixty million guaranteed, I bet he does have 509 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: the surgery. I bet the franchise makes him. I've bet there, 510 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: like three weeks in. We have a four year investment 511 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: in you. You have nothing else to prove. You want 512 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: a playoff game last year, to have the surgery, come 513 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: back at week eight and see what you can do. Instead, 514 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: he tried to gut through it. He is not talented 515 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: enough to overcome a physical injury when physicality is already's 516 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: biggest limitation. And instead, I mean he won the first 517 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: playoff game that franchise has won in twenty six years, 518 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: first playoff appearance in eighteen years, first winning season in 519 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: a dozen years, and now it's a legitimate conversation like, um, 520 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 1: should they bring in Tyler Huntley? Like it is crazy 521 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: how fast and how quickly it has fallen for Baker. Yeah, 522 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: are you getting snow tires or all season tires? You know? 523 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: Dan Again, I don't want to, you know, for the 524 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: third time on the show to talk about what a 525 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: nice car I have. But these types of vehicles, you 526 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: like to have different seasonal tires, you know what I mean. 527 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: You like to have certain for the winter, certain for 528 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: the summer, Certain that can handle salt, certain that can't. 529 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: So you know that's what I'm doing right now, my friend. Okay, 530 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: I'd still like to see the video of you changing 531 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: as a journey list of you changing the time. Okay, 532 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: you know what you're also going to see in that 533 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: video because I am shirtless in that video. I say, 534 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna say, my guy, Nick, right, he's a little 535 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: more rock though. You're gonna say, my god, Now, this 536 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: guy hides it well in the suit. Now I really 537 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: need to see it. Okay, I'll chext it too, Shirtless Winter. 538 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: I love it. It's so hot. List a man of 539 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: all seasons tires, Thank you, Nick, see Nick Wright. First 540 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: things first, that's interesting. Now I can't get that image 541 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: of Nick Wright shirtless out there changing his tire in 542 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: winter in New York. Yeah. I wouldn't expect him to 543 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: change the tire. He seems a guy who would call 544 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: triple A quickly, which is like you said, you want 545 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 1: to have triple A and try not to use triple A. No, 546 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: but that's why I have triple A, right, but you 547 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: you try to call them last because there is no no, no, no, 548 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: something's going wrong TRIPLA. It is weird though, because a 549 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: human that's the same size as you walks up and 550 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: says I'll handle changing your tire, and you're like, I 551 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: know he's getting paid everything like that, but you want 552 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: to try to knockholl I have no problem, no guilt whatsoever. 553 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, I'm ready to hug the 554 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: guy when you're like, oh go, I'm here. Yeah see, 555 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: and I do I do tip the Triple A guy. 556 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: I do use you a twenty Yeah see. I don't 557 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: have the patience to wait. Oh, I just change it, Okay. 558 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: I know, Fritzie, you have never changed the tire. I 559 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: think I have Triple A platinum. If I even see 560 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: anything remotely wrong with my car I'm calling them, and 561 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: then they could say, no, that's just a little blinking light. 562 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: Don't worry about that. Here's Fritzie is so inept that 563 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: he needs help calling Triple a a service. I read 564 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: somebody over it from the car behind me. Here, you 565 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: know how to get in touch the Triple? Is there 566 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: a service that you can call to have them called 567 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: Triple as the one I want?

All the festivities start at seven Eastern on 606 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: NBC and Peacock with Football Night in America. It was 607 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: a while ago. I think earlier in the hour, we 608 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: were talking about when you play through pain, injury, the flu, whatever, 609 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: whereever it is, whatever the condition. If you succeed, then 610 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: you're part of history. We laund you. When you don't, 611 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 1: then we go why are you playing? And the analogies 612 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 1: that I made. If Kirk Gibson strikes out against Dennis Eckersley, 613 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: we're going, what is Tommy sort of thinking? Gibby homers 614 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: and of course that's part of baseball lore. You know, 615 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan had the flu game, then it became food 616 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: poisoning game. And Paulie said do you know Stuart Scott. 617 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: He was doing Sports Center that night. I was in 618 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 1: Salt Lake. I was doing the NBA Finals coverage there 619 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: and start Scott came on after the game. Now we 620 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: didn't know. We knew Michael was sick. I saw that firsthand, 621 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: but we were told he had the flu. Here's how 622 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 1: Stewart Scott starts the highlight that night on Sports Center. 623 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: Maybe it was takeout food. The bulls Park City dwelling 624 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 1: in Utah does not have room service. But at five 625 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,959 Speaker 1: ten Utah time, Michael got to the arena a touch 626 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,399 Speaker 1: of the flu after sleeping all day. No doubt though 627 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 1: the four time Finals MVP would start as for his teammates, Well, 628 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: now I'm about to waken up ball. So there's a 629 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: lot there in the beginning. That's not a throwaway line 630 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: by Stuart. Now he's saying, might have been takeout, there's 631 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 1: no room service. How did you know that they didn't 632 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: have any room service there? Yeah? Seton? Can I go 633 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory on you? Okay, maybe Michael Jordan heard Stuart 634 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: Scott stay there and then was like, oh, yeah, that's right. 635 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: It was bad takeout. That's right. Mmmm, that's what it 636 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 1: was okay. How did Steward get that information? Speculation, m 637 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: I don't know that that's that's a lot more detailed 638 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: than I remembered. But I just remember when when we 639 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: were there at the arena, and I remember where our 640 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 1: office was with Sports Center, so we'd go in there 641 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: and we'd get ready for pre and post game covering, 642 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: covering the NBA Finals, and all of a sudden, I 643 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: heard all this noise, this loud noise, and what it was. 644 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: It was the media, mostly Chicago media, following Michael. Michael's 645 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: walking in and I remember looking out and we knew 646 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 1: that he was sick. He looked gray, and I thought, 647 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: oh my god, he's not gonna play. And then we 648 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 1: were trying to get updates on that, and then we 649 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: were told that he has the flu, but he's going 650 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 1: to try to play. They're giving him IV. He's going 651 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: to try to play, and then of course he played 652 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: and had one of the more legendary games and NBA 653 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 1: playoff history. Yampoint Stuarts should have ended the highlight with Fluya, 654 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: flu Ya, how do you not do that? Fluya? No? No, 655 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 1: I got it, Todd, I can't no, I know, I 656 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: got it. I got it, I got it, eat it. 657 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: Todd had twenty five years to come up with that bit. 658 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 1: Fluia thirty seven points. I'm not out of here to 659 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 1: cheer you. I'm here to fluya all right. Let me 660 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: get okay, a couple of things here. I got an 661 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: update here on Antonio Brown. According to Rick Stroud Tampa 662 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:45,479 Speaker 1: Bay Times, Antonio Brown has visited a top surgeon away 663 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: from the Buccaneers, had an MRI confirm he's dealing with 664 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: a legitimate injury, and he originally suffered it back on 665 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: October fourteenth, so that kept him out through his three 666 00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: game suspension. Antonio Brown, according to friends, worried about the 667 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: pain he was experiencing, so they encouraged him to see 668 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: a top surgeon outside the Bucks organization. Rick Stroud goes 669 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: on to say Antonio is known for having a high 670 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: pain threshold, but the belief is Antonio probably should never 671 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: have been on the field to begin with on Sunday. 672 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,919 Speaker 1: The official statement from Brown's camp will be issued soon. 673 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: They have stayed quiet. Mike Florio pointed out on Pro 674 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 1: Football Talk Antonio Brown was listed as questionable for the 675 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: Jets game. Didn't practice Thursday or Friday because of the ankle. 676 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 1: Now where it gets interesting is one wonders if such 677 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: an update could also allow Tampa to put Antonio Brown 678 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: on the injured reserve, a move that would prevent him 679 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: from signing with any other team slash contender before or 680 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: during the upcoming playoffs. Although if you watched Antonio Brown 681 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,879 Speaker 1: leave the field, didn't look like he was in pain, 682 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: didn't you know? He's jumping up and down. But I 683 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: don't know, it feels like he's trying to use the 684 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: ankle to get paid. The Buccaneers are trying to use 685 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: the ankle to not pay him. What would stop the 686 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs from picking up Antonio Brown only for 687 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: a couple of games? That's it? Five weeks pick him up? 688 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: Why not? Now you got to look at the organization 689 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: and you know, can he fit in with that team, 690 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: with that quarterback, with that coach? That's the key. Andy 691 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,440 Speaker 1: Reid is dealt with an awful lot in his career, 692 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: including Michael Vick coming back from prison. You got Patrick Mahomes, 693 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: who he'd have great respect for. Now, I'm just speculating here, 694 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 1: but if I'm the Buccaneers, I'm thinking the last thing 695 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: we want is this guy, gets out, we got to 696 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: pay him, and he's gonna play for somebody else because 697 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,359 Speaker 1: you can sit there and go, well, no, no one's 698 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,800 Speaker 1: gonna pick him up. Now, what if Antonio can Antonio 699 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: Brown mend fences in Tampa? Because if you've got Tom 700 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 1: Brady as a mediator here, I don't know if it 701 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:16,760 Speaker 1: can happen, but stranger things have happened. I got five weeks. 702 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: That's where Brady could say to him, Look, five weeks 703 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: just just staling board here, you know, don't play in 704 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: the final game against Carolina. Yeah. Man, it sure feels 705 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: like Bruce arians has taken a lot of heat on 706 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 1: this one already. Would he be willing to go back again? Uh? Man, 707 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: that's tough. I think I think it would be hard 708 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: for him now because of what happened with a vaccination card, 709 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: and it did feel like he was done with him 710 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: and even said that, hey, look, he knows he's on 711 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: a short leash. And and you know, Bruce comes off 712 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: as no nonsense. It's she gotta deal with the Brady 713 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 1: factor because Tom wants him. Tom knows. Tom's all about 714 00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: winning super Bowls. That's it. That's always all he has 715 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 1: left to play for. Super Bowl. Is he's gonna have 716 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: every record possible. Who helps him get another Super Bowl? 717 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown? Does yah? See? Is there a lawsuit in 718 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: here somewhere with Antonio Brown and the Buccaneers Because being 719 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: cut from the team when you're injured, when you're injured 720 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:19,919 Speaker 1: and you don't want to go in the game because 721 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: you're injured, sure feels like a unionee lawsuity kind of thing. 722 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 1: This is where the Players Association comes in, and then 723 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: that's where you know it might be where he says, 724 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: just give me my release, let me go, and I'll 725 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: sign on with somebody else. But you know, he had 726 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: a chance to get these bonuses. He was gonna make 727 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 1: a million dollars. All I had to do was be 728 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 1: a good soldier. Now he was told that he was 729 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: time to leave if he was not going to be 730 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: healthy enough to play, So that's cutting out that second 731 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: to last game. Then he had the last game where 732 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,919 Speaker 1: he's going to have to make up the numbers there 733 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: to get to his bonuses and he was gonna make 734 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: maybe a million dollars there. But it feels like that 735 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: story is not over in Tampa Bay with Antonio Brown. 736 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,480 Speaker 1: I've been talking about Barry Bond situation, and he's starting 737 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 1: to trend towards getting into the Hall of Fame. First 738 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 1: year thirty six percent, then thirty four, thirty six, forty four, 739 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 1: fifty three, fifty six, fifty nine, sixty sixty one, almost 740 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: sixty two percent. He needs to inspire at thirteen point 741 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: two percent improvement in his final year on the ballot. 742 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: The deadline for voters was Friday, December thirty first. The 743 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: final results will come out on January twenty fifth. Ryan 744 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: Thibodeau does a great job now tracking this where he 745 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: talks to both public and anonymous Hall of Fame ballots, 746 00:42:55,400 --> 00:43:00,399 Speaker 1: and he has Bonds pulling at eighty one percent as 747 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:07,439 Speaker 1: of January first. If Bonds gets in, then who else 748 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: gets in? Sammy Sosa doesn't because the argument has always been, 749 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: which is flawed, that Bonds was a Hall of Famer 750 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: before he started cheating. Is Mark McGuire a Hall of Famer? No, 751 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:27,760 Speaker 1: Sammy Sosa? No? Does Bonds go in as a pirate? 752 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,800 Speaker 1: If that's the case. Roger Clemmens, to me, was not 753 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer before he started using. In Toronto, 754 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:43,319 Speaker 1: Alex Rodriguez when and they popped him twice which I 755 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 1: would immediately take him off any consideration. There. You get 756 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: popped twice, you should be kicked out of the game. 757 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: Final hour coming up, we'll check in with the Cleveland 758 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: Browns and the great voice of NBC Sports Sunday Night Football, 759 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 1: Al Michaels, will join us as well.
