Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour on this Wednesday. It's been a
Speaker 1: lot of fun reminiscing about Vin sculling. We brought back
Speaker 1: an interview that we conducted with Vin in twenty fourteen.
Speaker 1: He had just joined Twitter, didn't know exactly what Twitter was,
Speaker 1: but be joining Twitter in twenty fourteen, Your phone calls
Speaker 1: had been great. If you missed Brian Cranston's email that
Speaker 1: he sent to me earlier this morning, the great actor.
Speaker 1: I don't think he was ready to come on the
Speaker 1: show and talk about what Vin Scully meant to him
Speaker 1: growing up in Los Angeles. We will put his email
Speaker 1: with his permission on our newsletter later today. Was very,
Speaker 1: very touching. Your phone calls are always welcome. I thought
Speaker 1: about this. You are super spoiled if you're in Los Angeles,
Speaker 1: and I mean that in a good way. Bevin Scully
Speaker 1: sixty seven years with the Dodgers, check her in forty
Speaker 1: one years with the Lakers, Bob Miller forty four years
Speaker 1: with the Kings. Dick Enberg did the Rams in the
Speaker 1: Angels in UCLA basketball, Tom Kelly did USC for forty
Speaker 1: two years. Spoiled, but in a good way we bring
Speaker 1: in one of the great broadcasters of all time Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame, Amazon Thursday Night Football play by Playboys, Al
Speaker 1: Michaels joining us on the program. Al, thanks for joining us.
Speaker 1: When I say the name Vince Scully, what comes to mind?
Speaker 1: One of the kind nobody like him. Can't imagine there
Speaker 1: will be anybody like him in the future. It's a
Speaker 1: different template now. Then he in those sixty seven years,
Speaker 1: did most of the games by himself. He had a partner,
Speaker 1: Jerry Doggett, for a number of years, but then he
Speaker 1: would do seven innings by himself, and then Jerry would
Speaker 1: do two, and then in the latter years then he
Speaker 1: would do six innings on television, maybe three on radio,
Speaker 1: or nine innings on TV. When you think about it,
Speaker 1: how many people have a job, any job, or work
Speaker 1: for sixty seven consecutive years, or have the same job
Speaker 1: for sixty seven consecutive years and bring it, bring it
Speaker 1: every day. Not only did I moved to Los Angeles
Speaker 1: when the Dodgers moved here, but I was in Brooklyn
Speaker 1: and we lived within walking distance of Embitsfield. And the
Speaker 1: first thing in my life I can ever remember is
Speaker 1: walking into eachield with my father when I was six
Speaker 1: or seven and Bennie was maybe in his first or
Speaker 1: second year with the Dodgers and just falling in love
Speaker 1: with the atmosphere with baseball. My father said, that's where
Speaker 1: the guys who were announcing the game are in that
Speaker 1: broadcast booth up there. I looked up there, and that
Speaker 1: was the first thing I ever remember, and that made
Speaker 1: me want to get into broadcasting. So there's no question
Speaker 1: Vinnie was my very early idol. I tried to emulate
Speaker 1: him when I got the Hawaii Islander job, professional job
Speaker 1: doing minor league baseball in sixty eight. I'm flying over there,
Speaker 1: and the only thing I'm thinking on the plane, Dan,
Speaker 1: is just sound like Vinnie. I'm very nervous, I'm starting
Speaker 1: my career, and I did sound like Vinnie. I sounded
Speaker 1: like a Minnie clone for so many years. And then,
Speaker 1: of course I was able to bring my own style
Speaker 1: to it. But there was always a lot of Vinnie
Speaker 1: in me, and I knew him. And I can only
Speaker 1: tell you, Dan, that if if there was a contest
Speaker 1: who were best baseball announcer of all time and there
Speaker 1: was a horse race, Vinnie was secretariat, winning the Belmont
Speaker 1: by thirty one lanes. You remember the first time you
Speaker 1: met him. I do. I actually met him. He was
Speaker 1: on vacation in Hawaii when I was doing the Islanders
Speaker 1: and there was the off season. I was living there
Speaker 1: full time and I was doing the local sports on
Speaker 1: television and I knew he was at the at that time,
Speaker 1: the Kahala Hilton, and I just called the room and
Speaker 1: I was very nervous, and I said, Hi, mister Scully,
Speaker 1: I'm al Michaels and I'm on television here. Would you
Speaker 1: mind if I came down with a camera and, you know,
Speaker 1: talk to you for a couple of minutes. Oh? Sure,
Speaker 1: is how Benny put it. And I went down there
Speaker 1: and I was I was so nervous, and he was great,
Speaker 1: and he remembered it. Not that many years later, when
Speaker 1: I'm doing the Cincinnati Reds and my first year with
Speaker 1: the resident the Big Red Machine, I've got Rose and
Speaker 1: Bench and Perez and Morgan would come the next year
Speaker 1: and our first trip to La Vinny asked me to
Speaker 1: go on the pregame show Dodger Warm Up, and that
Speaker 1: was one of the great thrills of my life. I
Speaker 1: listened that show from the time I was a child
Speaker 1: and Vinny's interviewing me on the radio. It was something
Speaker 1: I'll ever forget. You talked about that style that if
Speaker 1: you came up with that style now that I can't
Speaker 1: imagine a TV or radio executive is going to go, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: come on in. You know you're gonna you're gonna do
Speaker 1: the game by yourself. Okay, Yeah, not going to happen. Man,
Speaker 1: you might have to yell a little bit more to
Speaker 1: one the audition. Yeah, gotta have a catch phraser too,
Speaker 1: and or ken or you know, or be or be
Speaker 1: dued perfect and come on to Amazon and do the
Speaker 1: author ask you know, I mean, God bless everybody, and
Speaker 1: all the times are changing. Times you think so, yeah,
Speaker 1: you think so a little time. Yeah, but you know,
Speaker 1: but Vinny, Vinny was forever and even at the end
Speaker 1: of his career, and you know he ended it in
Speaker 1: the two thy sixteen. Great honor for me that they
Speaker 1: were honoring viny on opening day and they asked me
Speaker 1: to come and see it and bring out all the
Speaker 1: Dodgers and UH and all the people who were close
Speaker 1: to him. He am. He was at the end of
Speaker 1: his career, and as they said, he brought it every
Speaker 1: day because through the years. They had a lot of
Speaker 1: great teams and some bad teams. But I would be
Speaker 1: driving home from wherever, you know, seven eight years ago,
Speaker 1: being get the driveway, open up the garage door, and
Speaker 1: then if then he was telling a story, I would
Speaker 1: just stop, let the car idle, and I had to
Speaker 1: hear the rest of the story. He was that good
Speaker 1: for sixty seven years. It's just impossible. Nobody could Nobody
Speaker 1: could ever duplicate that. Nobody. But also he did other sports.
Speaker 1: You know, did football, he did golf, did Game of
Speaker 1: the Week with baseball. But to be able to tell
Speaker 1: those stories and radio is different than TV. As you
Speaker 1: well know, TV your role is to compliment what we
Speaker 1: get to see. Radio I got to create everything. So
Speaker 1: to be able to do that, the same broadcast that's
Speaker 1: going to be on TV and on radio is kind
Speaker 1: of a that's a double header. That's that's tricky to
Speaker 1: pull off. Very uh. You know you mentioned Chick Kern.
Speaker 1: Chick did that, but Chick did a silcast. So Chick
Speaker 1: did radio and TV both and had to do basically
Speaker 1: a radio broad asked because if you were doing a
Speaker 1: television broadcast on radio, the radio listener was going to
Speaker 1: miss a lot. Uh, so there was. It was probably
Speaker 1: overly wordy, but basketball lent itself to being overly wordy.
Speaker 1: Iman the game is a fast paced game as opposed
Speaker 1: to what baseball is. But Vinnie was able to Vinnie
Speaker 1: made the transition perfectly. He knew how to you know,
Speaker 1: work both mediums. He was so descriptive obviously on radio
Speaker 1: and radio. Lets you use every verb in the dictionary.
Speaker 1: Television you're doing a lot of captions and speaking in ellipses. Uh,
Speaker 1: you're feeling. I mean the verb is visual. You can
Speaker 1: see how it's a line drive, it's a pop fly,
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Vinnie knew how to do it perfectly.
Speaker 1: He was He was phenomenal at that and as I say,
Speaker 1: I can't think if anybody anybody like him couldn't happen again.
Speaker 1: Among other things, you know now teams have eight, nine,
Speaker 1: ten announcers, guys have you know, thirty eight days off
Speaker 1: and all of that for so many years. Then he
Speaker 1: did one hundred and sixty two games and every every
Speaker 1: spring training game, and they got from the playoffs and
Speaker 1: in World Series a lot. So if then he did
Speaker 1: everything all the time, and how his voice even held
Speaker 1: up was amazing, and you mentioned he did other sports.
Speaker 1: I'll never forget he told me once. He said he
Speaker 1: was always hesitant to do that. He said, because if
Speaker 1: you're on too much, people won't miss you. But if
Speaker 1: you if you just do the right amount, they can't
Speaker 1: wait for you to get back. I understood that. And
Speaker 1: you know, during the years when some of us in
Speaker 1: the business would be doing would be doing so many things,
Speaker 1: it's like at a certain point, you know, people are
Speaker 1: gonna go him again, you know. So then he was
Speaker 1: always very very cognizant of that. I think I need
Speaker 1: to take a couple of months off of that now
Speaker 1: because I've been doing it every single day for for
Speaker 1: a long long time. Thursday Night Football with Kirk curb Street.
Speaker 1: What is the one thing that you want answered this
Speaker 1: upcoming season? What would be the question you would have
Speaker 1: going into the season. Well, we just had a three
Speaker 1: day seminar and they really brought together a pretty amazing
Speaker 1: group of people, and Kirk and I, you know, we
Speaker 1: haven't worked together, but we're going to do a practice
Speaker 1: game here in Los Angeles before we do a regular
Speaker 1: preseason game in Houston at the end of at the
Speaker 1: end of August, and then the Chargers in Kansas City.
Speaker 1: It's gonna work. I mean, Kirk is usually prepared. Fred
Speaker 1: Goodilly as our producer, who have worked with the twenty
Speaker 1: one years. Pierre Muslin has a lot of experience. The director.
Speaker 1: We're bringing Kaylee Hardtime who's done sports in the past,
Speaker 1: and she's going to do the sideline. Our support people
Speaker 1: are are are really really good, and I think that
Speaker 1: you know, you can't reinvent the wheel. The game is
Speaker 1: the game. The game is the most important thing. And
Speaker 1: the end of the day, you know, when I had
Speaker 1: to get up and talk a little bit at the seminar,
Speaker 1: say hey, look at the game as a star. And
Speaker 1: we're all here and we've got it's a pretty eclectic
Speaker 1: and very interesting pregame cast we have with like Keith
Speaker 1: to Leave and Richard Sherman and Andrew Whitworth, Tony Gonzalez,
Speaker 1: Charissa Thompson. They were up there the other day and
Speaker 1: then they put on a little bit of a show
Speaker 1: that was fantastic. I gotta tell you so, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be very interested to see how that works out. You
Speaker 1: got the alternate FeAs would dude perfect, and god knows
Speaker 1: what us We're gonna have coming along. But you know, Dan,
Speaker 1: when it comes down to it, the huge majority of
Speaker 1: the audience, the vast majority, they want to watch the game.
Speaker 1: So am I going to be different? Doubtful? Can I
Speaker 1: be better? You know, you can tweak it. Fred Gudilli
Speaker 1: and I every year we do a press tour and
Speaker 1: the press would always say, what are you gonna do
Speaker 1: that's different? And I would say no, The question is
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do that's better? How do you
Speaker 1: enhance it? How do you make it? How do you
Speaker 1: make it better? It's as simple as that. But you
Speaker 1: don't do that by changing the whole template. You can't.
Speaker 1: At this point, Well, the game is what changes. You
Speaker 1: don't change the game changes because it's you know, it's
Speaker 1: a different game every single week. Um. Can you embrace
Speaker 1: gambling more on the broadcast now than maybe in previous
Speaker 1: years on NBC? Yes, But you know you don't want
Speaker 1: to overdo that either because as much as you know,
Speaker 1: I've been the rascal through the years and thrown in
Speaker 1: you know, little aside just to the old Runder and
Speaker 1: all of the rest, and I've loved I've loved doing that.
Speaker 1: So I mean I was coming into the back door,
Speaker 1: the side door. I can come in the front door
Speaker 1: right now, but welcome. But if you start doing that,
Speaker 1: you know, look, a lot of people bet on the game,
Speaker 1: do certain things, maybe bet whether it's run past whatever.
Speaker 1: Um no, but I still think the vast majority of
Speaker 1: the audience is not into that. You can have some
Speaker 1: fun with it. You can talk about it in terms
Speaker 1: of what sort of an upset this is or how
Speaker 1: unusual something is, but to make that a big part
Speaker 1: of the game, no, I'm not going to go there.
Speaker 1: When's the first time you refer to Kirk as Chris?
Speaker 1: And how about the first time that he refers to
Speaker 1: me as Chris? We got dueling Chris is here? Don't
Speaker 1: forget Chris Fowler. Yeah, yeah, we each work with a Chris.
Speaker 1: Mine doesn't have an H minus cr I s is
Speaker 1: ah r, I s when's the first time? That's a
Speaker 1: good question. But I will tell you this. I did
Speaker 1: twenty years of Monday night football. I did sixteen years
Speaker 1: of Sunday and I got to tell you the first
Speaker 1: few years on Sunday. I cannot believe I didn't say
Speaker 1: Monday Night Football. I can't believe it. It was always
Speaker 1: there in my brain, and even in converse stations with
Speaker 1: people through the years, I would refer to my show
Speaker 1: as Monday, I excuse me, Sunday Night Football. It never
Speaker 1: happened on the air for some crazy reason, so I
Speaker 1: would say the over under is, but it may happen now.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm at a different point in life and everything.
Speaker 1: I give it six. I give it six games. Great
Speaker 1: to talk to you. I hope the golf game is good.
Speaker 1: It stinks. So what can I tell you? You know what?
Speaker 1: Can you gotta swing a thought for me? Give me,
Speaker 1: give me a swing thoat. I've got like nine hundred
Speaker 1: of my iPhone. How about most of them? When you swing? Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you take it back? Yes, Johnny Miller, Oh for
Speaker 1: crying out loud? So um, well you do? You could
Speaker 1: do anybody with two syllables, right, yeah, shook heel oh
Speaker 1: new yes? Will that work too? Ye? Yes? Daniel tempo
Speaker 1: Patrick tempo tempo. You know what that's Miller? I need
Speaker 1: I need, you know, like the right elbow and it's no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no, you don't need that. I understand, no, no, no, no, Dan, Dan,
Speaker 1: There's only one thing that's gonna make my golf game
Speaker 1: better a lobotomy because your brain gets in the way.
Speaker 1: You know that, you know what screws up about this?
Speaker 1: How about this thanking Chris Fuamatu Mala Fallow. That would
Speaker 1: be Barkley's. That would be Barkley. Right, he's got He's
Speaker 1: gotten so much better. I know, I know, I know.
Speaker 1: I can't go back to Tahoe. Last year I finished
Speaker 1: behind him. Seriously. Oh yeah, yeah, I wasn't last, but
Speaker 1: you know, I mean he's I mean even this year
Speaker 1: he had eight nine ten guys behind him at Tahoe.
Speaker 1: Who's the worst golfer? Who's the worst celebrity golfer out there?
Speaker 1: The worst cele Well you may be looking at him.

Speaker 1: You know, we've got a lot of actors. We get
Speaker 1: we have some some good golfers. Some the tennis players
Speaker 1: are fantastical. Question guys. The hockey guys are terrific. We

Speaker 1: in MBUSA dot com. Dan Lebotard host of The Dan
Speaker 1: Lebotard Show, with Stugats, co founder of metal Ark Media,
Speaker 1: joining us on the program. Good morning, Dan, how are you?
Speaker 1: Is it? Is it? Dan? You only call me when
Speaker 1: this unending river of diarrhea that is the Miami Dolphins
Speaker 1: does something nationally to embarrass our region and in stain
Speaker 1: everything that used to be Dolphins football? Is it really
Speaker 1: you call the laugh at me? M No with you. No. No.
Speaker 1: I am trying to ascertain with the strongest parts of
Speaker 1: my soul whether or not you have any use of
Speaker 1: this relationship except when an offensive line coach does cocaine
Speaker 1: or an offensive lineman bullies somebody else. Like the only
Speaker 1: times you called me. I saw you yesterday, I was
Speaker 1: insane with jealousy. You're talking to Pat McAfee about the
Speaker 1: origins of his career. But me, no, it's only when
Speaker 1: the Dolphins do something stupid. It's infuriating, it's hurtful. I
Speaker 1: was excited, like we played yesterday. We had a sixty
Speaker 1: five yard pass in training camp that represented the best
Speaker 1: thing that's happened here in twenty years, and we got
Speaker 1: so excited that we were playing Tea Paine's terrible Dolphins
Speaker 1: song yesterday. Listen this, Hey, the greatest leam, Wow, it's
Speaker 1: music in my heart. And then so and then I'm like,
Speaker 1: and then I'm avoiding when I see your call come
Speaker 1: up on the like, really they're calling me again. It's
Speaker 1: the only time they're interested in me. Oh, that song
Speaker 1: can really inspire you to maybe tamper or tank? Which
Speaker 1: one do you want to talk about? Dan? With your Dolphins?
Speaker 1: The incompetence is laughably amusing at this point, is it
Speaker 1: not that you would This is the greatest winner we've known.
Speaker 1: And they lose the draft picks that it would have
Speaker 1: cost to actually get him, so they only fail to
Speaker 1: get him, and in so doing, the media gets everything
Speaker 1: wrong on the front end of this. Dan. If you
Speaker 1: remember how some of this broke. Adam, Schefter and Darlington
Speaker 1: were out there for a weekend with the report that
Speaker 1: Brady was retiring when he publicly sent out the statement
Speaker 1: that wasn't meant as a retirement. He was meant as
Speaker 1: goodbye to Tampa, and Boston gets mad because they're like,
Speaker 1: why were we mentioned Well, you weren't mentioning because it
Speaker 1: wasn't meant as a retirement. He was coming to be
Speaker 1: the quarterback for the Dolphins. Are to try to be
Speaker 1: through the executive route, you know, trying to do Lebron
Speaker 1: stuff because he's figured out with the player empowerment that
Speaker 1: he's worth three hundred and seventy five million dollars as
Speaker 1: a side job that nobody knows he's any good at
Speaker 1: because he can do anything he wants. And this was
Speaker 1: such a gangster move that was almost executed, and the
Speaker 1: Dolphins just screwed all of it up and it didn't
Speaker 1: happen only because of the unprecedented lawsuit that involves racism
Speaker 1: that cost them their coat. Okay, but can you at
Speaker 1: least respect the Dolphins that they're they're trying to win,
Speaker 1: so they they tampered. They tried to get Sean Payton
Speaker 1: tried to get Brady. They tried to tank so they
Speaker 1: could get Joe Burrow, so they're at least they're at
Speaker 1: least trying. I love that take, and we mocked Chris
Speaker 1: Cody for that take yesterday because how rare responsible it is.
Speaker 1: You're out here actively advocating for do everything, including cheating,
Speaker 1: just do it well and don't get caught. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: can't believe that that's where your career now taking new Patrick,
Speaker 1: where you're can't do the immortal thing to win? Why
Speaker 1: wouldn't you? But I'm in total agreement with you. Subjectionable
Speaker 1: is that he failed. Yes, they failed to successfully cheat
Speaker 1: well as opposed to cheating poorly. Yeah, I'm with you.
Speaker 1: Would you rather have Joe Burrow or Tom Brady? Um?
Speaker 1: I wow, well come on, I'd rather have Joe Burrow
Speaker 1: because well, no, you're right, I'd rather Brady because he's
Speaker 1: gonna last longer than Burrow. He's gonna play playing that
Speaker 1: right there. It's a hot take. It's just the most
Speaker 1: obvious thing. Brady is still gonna bring a winning Super
Speaker 1: Bowl actively dragging a dialysis machine next with the nurses
Speaker 1: from hospice running after him. How confident. Are you in
Speaker 1: Tua this year? I believe in the Dolphins this year
Speaker 1: for the first time in twenty five. Well, but they've
Speaker 1: they're masking it. You say, no, no, no, Twah, but
Speaker 1: Garoppolo got within a throw of being a champion, and
Speaker 1: they were disguising it. Like they've put all the pieces
Speaker 1: around him so that all he's got to do is
Speaker 1: be accurate and not have a historically bad offensive line.
Speaker 1: Everything like this has been pushed to the front, to
Speaker 1: the middle of the table, everything all or nothing has
Speaker 1: been fast forward and on the young quarterbacks because everyone's
Speaker 1: realized that you have to have value at that position
Speaker 1: in order to game the system. And for the moment,
Speaker 1: they have value at that position. He's cheap. Can you
Speaker 1: put all the things around him? They've got an offensive line?
Speaker 1: When I tell you historically bad Dan, I think it's impossible,
Speaker 1: impossible to evaluate what Tuah is given that he had
Speaker 1: less time, according to Pro Football Focus than any quarterback
Speaker 1: has ever had more pass rushing, more pass blocking failures
Speaker 1: than we've ever seen since they've been tracking it. I
Speaker 1: don't I love that they're entering this season with a
Speaker 1: fantasy player that is being described as a chaos player,
Speaker 1: because everyone listening to this has an opinion, but nobody
Speaker 1: listening to this has any earthly idea. What's going to
Speaker 1: happen with this quarterback? He's Dan Lebotard, host of The
Speaker 1: Dan Lebotard Show. Was Stugots You and Stugts okay? I
Speaker 1: mean felt like there was little friction. You had reached
Speaker 1: out to me wanting to know if maybe my show
Speaker 1: versus your show family feud, and then it felt like
Speaker 1: you were having a family feud within your family with
Speaker 1: you and Stugots. Yes, we're okay. I've been married to
Speaker 1: somebody for nearly twenty years who's despicable, and I understand
Speaker 1: what's in my bed? Wow? What what do you mean? Wow?
Speaker 1: It's a whole formula. We were Mike and Mike odd
Speaker 1: couple Like what even? Wow? Like did you wait a minute?
Speaker 1: What do you mean? Wow? You were at my wedding
Speaker 1: and Stugots tried to run off with you. He did
Speaker 1: he did? What do you mean? Wow? People think that's fake,
Speaker 1: that's a fake. That's real. He did take me home.
Speaker 1: He dropped me off. I should say he dropped me. Okay,
Speaker 1: you love your wife or Stugots more? What are you
Speaker 1: talking about who's more important for your career, your wife
Speaker 1: or Stugat. I love my wife a million times more
Speaker 1: than Stugot's. I barely love Stugot's, but I do love it.
Speaker 1: Who's more important for your career? Who was more important
Speaker 1: for my career? My wife is the reason that I'm
Speaker 1: doing all of the things I'm presently doing that I
Speaker 1: could not do with Stugot's, the reasons I've made some
Speaker 1: of the choices that I've made to protect us. All Right,
Speaker 1: So you want to do this family feud one day
Speaker 1: where it's my show versus your show. I'd like to
Speaker 1: do it on actual I'd like to do it on
Speaker 1: Family Feud if they ever did a celebrity family feud,
Speaker 1: or I'd like for you because you've got game show connections. Right,
Speaker 1: everybody listening to this knows the story of how it
Speaker 1: is that you turn down the price is right? Does
Speaker 1: everyone know the story? I believe for those listening right now,
Speaker 1: just quickly, you didn't know that you had accepted the
Speaker 1: job to replace you were going to be Drew Carry,
Speaker 1: or you were being asked without knowing the salary, will
Speaker 1: you take this job it's being offered to you, and
Speaker 1: your response was, but I need to know the salary. Correct.
Speaker 1: I was told that the job was mine, and then
Speaker 1: they were going to set up a Price's Right set
Speaker 1: in San Antonio. I was covering the NBA Finals. They said,
Speaker 1: we just want to look see how you look on camera.
Speaker 1: But Bob Barker had signed off on this. And then
Speaker 1: I said, well, what do I get paid? And they said,
Speaker 1: if you accept the job, will tell you how much
Speaker 1: you get paid. And I said, I I can't do this,
Speaker 1: I can't do this. And what did the job paid?
Speaker 1: Ten million US? Yeah, exactly, exactly exactly total a year. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, it's like, uh, and Drew Carey
Speaker 1: is the host of Prices right, and he's making ten
Speaker 1: million dollars a year. My wife goes, did you know that?
Speaker 1: I go no, I didn't. I did not know that.
Speaker 1: I would never have left these guys. Though I could
Speaker 1: never have left these people. I made the right decision.
Speaker 1: No you did not. Maybe not, but it's okay, it's okay.
Speaker 1: I mean it could be worse. I could be there
Speaker 1: with Stugats. I mean, you can't do both. Vote that
Speaker 1: it was an either or choice. You had the Live,
Speaker 1: you had the Berkley Live Golf. Yeah, it was an
Speaker 1: either or yes, don't you other? Don't you have other
Speaker 1: game show experience though you you've hosted, like you could
Speaker 1: get us in the game show world somewhere to be
Speaker 1: able to have a competition against your show, could you not? Okay, Paulie,
Speaker 1: would you get a hold of the producer? We know
Speaker 1: the producer Celebrity family feud? Yeah, yeah, we know, we
Speaker 1: know of him. Yeah, why should reach out and see?
Speaker 1: I think they had the Joe Buck family on there, so,
Speaker 1: I mean, I gotta believe we're bigger celebrities than the
Speaker 1: Joe Buck family. You are where you are, so we
Speaker 1: could If not there, we'll do it somewhere else. We
Speaker 1: should figure out how to do this. But I'd like
Speaker 1: to ask your group. We we're in the middle of
Speaker 1: doing our show and we're just coming out of a segment, okay,
Speaker 1: So I'd like to ask your guys, all of them
Speaker 1: there and you, because we were just discussing this hypothetically
Speaker 1: and it's Miami. Of course, if any of them happened
Speaker 1: upon a brick of cocaine, what do they do a
Speaker 1: like on the beach you're walking on the beach and
Speaker 1: there is a brick of cocaine? What is the answer?
Speaker 1: Not having given it much thought, hypothetically, what do you do? Okay?
Speaker 1: So if this happened to me again when I was
Speaker 1: in Miami, so the first time, my answer is different
Speaker 1: than cocaine in the car. Yeah, my answer is different
Speaker 1: this time around than the first time that it happened
Speaker 1: to me in Miami. Let's go around the horn here,
Speaker 1: um seetan. I'm gonna start with you for no other reason,
Speaker 1: and you look like you're ready with an answer. I
Speaker 1: would alert the proper authorities of said brick of cocaine,
Speaker 1: of course. Okay, Marv, I'm gonna sell that thing. Okay,
Speaker 1: my guys weren't brave enough. My guys were not a
Speaker 1: brave enough to just say it like that. Okay, Fritzie,
Speaker 1: what would you do if you found a brick of cocaine?
Speaker 1: I would contact your local police. How do you get
Speaker 1: it to you? I can't imagine there's gonna be a
Speaker 1: reward posted for this, because but if there was, that'd
Speaker 1: be great. Now I would I think I turned into authories.
Speaker 1: I'd like to think that I would pull a Marvin
Speaker 1: and put it out there isn't. With the movie True Romance,
Speaker 1: he finds the drugs, he tries to sell it. Can
Speaker 1: I change what, Fritzie? What if you were to sell
Speaker 1: it and somehow all of a sudden on the news
Speaker 1: there was a contaminated weed or whatever and people got
Speaker 1: sick or died because there was something that's cocaine not weed.
Speaker 1: And why do you why are you a buzz killer?
Speaker 1: If it's just sitting there, someone could get sick from it,
Speaker 1: and without knowing what I know. It's just a simple
Speaker 1: let me. I want to ask some follow ups? Can
Speaker 1: I okay? Next steps? Please take me when you say
Speaker 1: you sell it, take me through the particulars of the
Speaker 1: next steps. You've immediately found it. Now we're coming, we're
Speaker 1: driving home with it in the car. I want all
Speaker 1: the fair that's a fair question of how do you
Speaker 1: sell said brick of cocaine? See? Well, the first thing
Speaker 1: you'd have to do some quality control. You got to
Speaker 1: tell you, and then probably about a month and a
Speaker 1: half later, the broke. Okay, so if you might not
Speaker 1: sell this much, you to set planned on good intentions
Speaker 1: to sell. Yeah, Marv, what would you do selling the
Speaker 1: brick of cocaine? I go around see who's who and
Speaker 1: what's what and make sure it doesn't I got you, Marvin, No, no,
Speaker 1: see you know what I'm talking about. You know who's who?
Speaker 1: Who's Yeah, Okay, you gonna go into detail, go into detail,
Speaker 1: basically trying to find out if you're not selling are street.
Speaker 1: We know, we know what's going on here. We're straight
Speaker 1: out of Connecticut here. You got any other questions here
Speaker 1: for my posse? I do have a question actually for
Speaker 1: you here. Okay. Chris Whittingham is a lifelong Dolphin fan,
Speaker 1: and I want for him to just read to you
Speaker 1: in a second the list of quarterbacks they've had out here.
Speaker 1: Because it's been an irrelevant regional team, we don't have
Speaker 1: that much time to do all of the quarterbacks. Well,
Speaker 1: I want to ask you off the top of your head,
Speaker 1: and I don't think it's a hole in anyone's knowledge
Speaker 1: to not know the answer this question. Can you tell
Speaker 1: me when the last time was you paid attention to
Speaker 1: the Dolphins doing anything on the field because you thought
Speaker 1: they were good? Like, just off the top of your head,
Speaker 1: when's the last time any of you guys who work
Speaker 1: in sports remember the Dolphins being good or carrying within.
Speaker 1: I think Ryan Fitzpatrick made them interesting for a month.
Speaker 1: That's the last time that they were. There was a
Speaker 1: curiosity there of could he win a game or lose? Again,
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick should go into the Hall of Fame with
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and Bill Belichick just because they feasted on
Speaker 1: him in every team in that division. That is not
Speaker 1: that Ryan Fitzpatrick being the choice for the Bills, the Jets,
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins. That represents the best of what you've
Speaker 1: remembered about. I'm just saying recent recently, Ryan Tannehill, he
Speaker 1: wasn't entertaining, but he was serviceable. Okay, Cutler, the Jay
Speaker 1: Cutler year, they were interesting. Okay, give him the list
Speaker 1: Winnington interesting. Yeah, you know Jay Fiedler and Ray Lucas
Speaker 1: and Joey Harrington Yeah, and Josh McCown, yeah, Gus Farrad
Speaker 1: Cleo Lemon, John Beck, Ryan Tannehill, Chad Henny. It's just
Speaker 1: been a morass of awful see the people. But the
Speaker 1: problem is you only like you guys win six or
Speaker 1: seven games, like you gotta be worse. That's like your
Speaker 1: owner is right, we screw it up and win six
Speaker 1: or seven games. We got to be worse than that.
Speaker 1: That's been your problem. You haven't been bad enough to
Speaker 1: get good. They were one in fifteen one year with
Speaker 1: Cleo Lemon and John Beck, and they could have been
Speaker 1: worse that season if not for Greg Camerio. But didn't
Speaker 1: you take an offensive lineman. Didn't you take Jake Long
Speaker 1: after one in fifteen season? Oh my god, Dan, they
Speaker 1: have taken you passed on Matt Ryan that year. I
Speaker 1: believe they have taken so many offensive linemen. They have
Speaker 1: spent so much money on offensive line. They have swallowed
Speaker 1: Nick Saban and Bill Parcel's ending money on offensive line,
Speaker 1: and they again, I will say this again, Dan, the
Speaker 1: worst pass blocking in the history of records on these
Speaker 1: things last year. I'm glad we could talk, are you?
Speaker 1: I am? I always feel better about my life when
Speaker 1: I talk to you. I don't forget to curse. Billy
Speaker 1: Gill says to me in my headset, not helpfully. It
Speaker 1: was nice, right tangling with you, sir. Yeah, Let's let's
Speaker 1: do it again, and maybe we do a family feud,
Speaker 1: my family versus your family, want to do that and
Speaker 1: the winner gets a brick of cocaine and Marvin's up
Speaker 1: in Marvin and Marvin's gonna do time, but he's gonna
Speaker 1: sell and then we'll make some money and then he'll
Speaker 1: be doing some time. Thank you, Dan, It's always nice
Speaker 1: seeing you, buddy. That's Dan LeBatard, host of the Dan

Speaker 1: Day in Sports History coming up Thursday. All former Cowboys
Speaker 1: coach Jason Garrett will be on the program. He's now
Speaker 1: working for NBC Football Night in America. A couple more
Speaker 1: phone calls in here. Let's uh, let's see Mike and
Speaker 1: was conson? Hi Mike, what's on your mind today? Dan?
Speaker 1: I've got a theory and possibly one of the most
Speaker 1: genius moves of this man's brilliant So I'm the Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: Sean Payton, Bruce Arians Brian Flores in the Dolphins situation. No,
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly where it falls in the timeline
Speaker 1: of events, but Bill Belichick sends an inadvertent congratulations text
Speaker 1: to the quote wrong Brian that makes headlines and opens
Speaker 1: the door to put his divisional opponent under the microscopertensive repercussions.
Speaker 1: That's Brian Dable who got the job with the Giants,
Speaker 1: and Bill texted Brian Flores and told him that he
Speaker 1: got the job. Yeah. Right at the end of the
Speaker 1: football season, people were surprised that Brian Flores got fired
Speaker 1: from the Dolphin because they weren't that bad. Yeh. Then
Speaker 1: he interviews for the Giants job and he was amongst
Speaker 1: the finalist. Bill Belichick accidentally sends congratulations to him, accidentally
Speaker 1: to Flores. Yeah. Just after that. Days after at Brian
Speaker 1: Flores files his lawsuit. So as part of Bill Belichick
Speaker 1: sending that inadvertent text, he helped cost the one of
Speaker 1: his rivals in the conference a couple of draft picks.
Speaker 1: As you might expect Bill Belichick would have a lot
Speaker 1: to say on the Dolphins tampering, and here was the
Speaker 1: head coach at his press conference. Yeah, I'm really worried
Speaker 1: about that. I was trying out to get training camp here.
Speaker 1: Did you have any idea the Dolphins are tampering. We're
Speaker 1: just starting quarterback that season. Yeah, focused on training camp here.
Speaker 1: It's all in the past. Any idea they were tampering
Speaker 1: with your quarterback. I'm just trying to get ready to
Speaker 1: try and get This is how I got them back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I screwed him over really well. Nick and Indiana? Hi, Nick,
Speaker 1: what's on your mind today? Hey? And sixty three two thirty? Um, listen,
Speaker 1: I about the little tamp ring thing. When is it right?
Speaker 1: And when is it wrong? Because you know, you remember
Speaker 1: Masked Afford and Sean McBain meeting up in Cabo drinking
Speaker 1: some rum runners together randomly. They said, no way, that's random.
Speaker 1: So so where does this line come? And when is
Speaker 1: it right? One? Is it wrong? It's international waters? Who knows?
Speaker 1: I don't know. It feels like if you do it publicly,
Speaker 1: it's better than trying to do it in international waters
Speaker 1: on a yacht like a bond villain. Yeah, uh Jesse
Speaker 1: in La, Hi Jess, good to hear from you today.
Speaker 1: What's on your mind? Hey Dpe, thanks for taking my call. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, if you ask me that brick question, I'm
Speaker 1: selling that Devil's dandriff and here in La it would
Speaker 1: go very quickly. But serious note. All the all the
Speaker 1: tributes from the fans in LA have been great today,
Speaker 1: especially mister Cranston's. Um. You know, when the Dodgers won
Speaker 1: two years ago. My mom, who was a reason I
Speaker 1: was a fan of the Dodgers, she passed earlier that season,
Speaker 1: so she didn't get to see that shif. But I
Speaker 1: took solce knowing that Ben got to see one more,
Speaker 1: one more title for them because he retired about one
Speaker 1: or two seasons earlier, and that's what he meant to us.
Speaker 1: And Dan, I have a question for you, and I've
Speaker 1: always wanted to ask you this. I don't think there's
Speaker 1: a more fitting time than today and honor event and
Speaker 1: your love for watching and listening to sports in your mind,
Speaker 1: there's a great call on radio, better or a great
Speaker 1: call on TV. Thanks none Radio, because I'm trusting you
Speaker 1: to paint the picture, to set this scene, and you
Speaker 1: do it because you have to as far as TV
Speaker 1: TV is there, so you don't paint the picture the
Speaker 1: same way radio is magical and growing up in a
Speaker 1: in a radio world, I just it made me fall
Speaker 1: in love with this business in sports. When you got
Speaker 1: to hear and then you create, your imagination plays a role.
Speaker 1: Your imagination doesn't play a role when you watch on
Speaker 1: TV radio it does and that's having that imagination, that
Speaker 1: creativity at a young age. Richard in La, Hi, Richard,
Speaker 1: how you doing? Dan? Great show today? Very emotional. It
Speaker 1: made me think of the Kevin Costner movie for Love
Speaker 1: of the Game, and Vince Scully was the announcer in
Speaker 1: the film and toward the end of the movie, as
Speaker 1: the perfect Game is unfolding, he said something very poignant
Speaker 1: that I don't know if you guys can grab that
Speaker 1: sound bid if you remember what he said, but just
Speaker 1: a paraphrase about pushing age back up into the sky
Speaker 1: and showing us the magic one more time. Do you
Speaker 1: do you remember that? I don't, but I appreciate you
Speaker 1: calling in. We did reach out to Kevin Costner. Kevin,
Speaker 1: he spoke at Dodger Stadium a tribute for Vince Scully,
Speaker 1: a few years ago, and we reached out to Kevin
Speaker 1: and maybe he'll join us tomorrow. But and I want
Speaker 1: to thank Fritzie. We're really all the guys, the Danets,
Speaker 1: because we kind of thought how we pay tribute? You know,
Speaker 1: it's just like Bill Russell, how do you pay tribute?
Speaker 1: We got Jerry West to talk about him. You got
Speaker 1: Alan Michaels. We brought back the interview with Vince Gully.
Speaker 1: We you know, we hope that we serve that person
Speaker 1: at that legacy, but that you know, just Brian Cranston,
Speaker 1: here's here's an actor who's on set in New Orleans
Speaker 1: and he said, I it's too emotional for me. I
Speaker 1: wrote an email to you and he wanted to have
