WEBVTT - Hour 3 - Bronny James Chooses USC 0:00:00.720 --> 0:00:03.560 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.600 --> 0:00:07.400 Sports Radio Final Hour on this Monday, more of your 0:00:07.400 --> 0:00:09.640 phone calls as we always do every Monday, Best and 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:14.200 worst to the weekend. Birthday Boy Tyler taking your phone 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:16.160 calls each seven to seven to three d p show 0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:18.360 stat of the Day brought to you Bob Panini America, 0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:22.200 the official trading cards to the Dan Patrick Show. Still 0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:24.840 waiting for the word from the NBA what they're going 0:00:24.880 --> 0:00:27.800 to do with the Joker and the Phoenix Suns owner 0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:32.280 Matt Ishbia with their little dust up last night. And 0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:36.000 I don't know if it helps Joker's defense if he 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:39.040 says that he thought it was a fan as opposed 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:41.280 to the owner, didn't know that that was the owner. 0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:44.040 Probably doesn't help him that if he was going to 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:47.159 do that, give a little chicken wing or an elbow 0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:51.000 to a fan, but it was an owner. And I 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.960 don't know if the commissioner just says to Matt Ishbia, 0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:57.240 I'm going to find you, you know whatever, five hundred 0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:01.520 thousand dollars. I mean, it's almost like two separate things 0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:05.400 here at play. Joker his role, what he did, whether 0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:08.119 it's an owner or a fan, and then the fact 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:12.240 that it was an owner who was engaged, and they 0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:16.560 both might be punished, but you know you can't. The 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:21.320 tricky part is can that owner benefit from being involved 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:26.839 with the Joker? And he can because if Jokers can't 0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:30.400 play tomorrow night in game five, I'd say, no matter 0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:34.480 what that owner is fined, it's worth it because now 0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:38.680 you're going to Denver the pivotal game five. And if 0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:42.480 you don't have Joker, who had fifty three in that loss, 0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:45.840 so he had Durant and Devin Booker who were unbelievable. 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:49.360 You got some contributions from the bench. You still don't 0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:52.160 have Chris Paul. Probably won't have him if this goes 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.200 seven games, and I thought without Chris Paul, you're in 0:01:55.240 --> 0:02:00.240 big trouble. But it feels like they're getting around not 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.760 having Chris Paul by playing at a different pace, and 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.040 I think that's benefited them greatly. But you know, Joker 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.040 at one point is on the bench, He's saying to 0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:11.360 his teammates, there's only two guys we got to worry 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.080 about out there. You only have to worry about, you know, 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:16.799 Durant and Booker. But it turns out they had to 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:22.200 worry about Landry Shammitt as well. But yeah, that's that 0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:25.080 is still formidable task. You have to worry about Booker 0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:27.480 and Kevin Durant, and they haven't been able to shut 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:32.160 them down. But you have the game tomorrow night. Therefore, 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:34.720 the commissioner going to have to rule here pretty soon. 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.400 I would think if Joker is going to be out 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:40.040 of that game, I mean, I guess we're curious what 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:45.960 happens to the owner, but I'm going to guess that 0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:49.520 that's a that's a person to person phone call the 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:56.640 commissioner with the owner. Matt, Commissioner, Silver High Commissioner. Let's 0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:01.160 not get engaged with the player anymore. Okay, comes to you, 0:03:01.320 --> 0:03:05.120 throw it back on the floor. Okay. I thought the 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:10.480 incriminating evidence with the owner was when Joker gives him 0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:13.800 that chicken wing and then he goes down as if 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:16.320 he's taken a charge. And then when he gets back 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:22.760 up and he leans into Joker, he engage or reengages, 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.480 and I think that's going to cost him there. 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:28.079 Yeah, Paul, if the commissioner has a sense of humor 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:32.520 and wants to really publicly embarrass Matt, eshbia find him 0:03:32.520 --> 0:03:36.080 five thousand dollars for flopping according to the official rule 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.120 flopping Gold of the NBA, where they get either the 0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.400 JJ Burrea rule or whatever it is. Give him a 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:42.200 five thousand dollars fine for flopping. 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.960 Well, he'll gladly take that if it means Joker is 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:47.680 not going to play in game five. Hey, hey, you 0:03:47.720 --> 0:03:49.880 want to make fun of me, find me five thousand 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:52.920 for flopping. But the Joker's not playing in game five? 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.600 All right, I'll take that. When you're the son of 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:57.760 one of the greatest players of all time, there's a 0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:01.320 lot of pressure. And that's what makes Ronnie James Journey 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:06.440 so interesting. He's the son of Lebron and he's been 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:11.360 heavily scrutinized. I don't know if criticized, but certainly scrutinized, 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:16.679 highly covered. And you watch and I've watched him play 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:20.279 games before, not just highlights, and you go, okay, you 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:24.960 know he knows how to play. Seems bright. If he 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:28.640 wasn't famous, nobody's going to be stopping going, oh my god, 0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:30.800 did you see that guy? He's not an oh my god, 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.320 did you see that guy? But I don't think he's 0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:36.880 trying to present himself as that. I think he's a 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:39.719 good basketball player, and maybe he's going to be a 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.120 great basketball player. You know, go back to the McDonald's 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.440 All American Game. Did he deserve to be in it? 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.880 Maybe not, but he was in it and people watched. 0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.479 He had fifteen points in that game. But he is 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:56.839 a four star recruit now and he's going to USC 0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:00.320 at least for one year. I mean, this is different 0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:04.280 kind of pressure than what Lebron faced. Lebron was the 0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:07.400 face of basketball at the age of fifteen or sixty 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:11.360 on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Bronnie is just trying 0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:14.559 to make it through college for a year and maybe 0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:17.719 make it to the NBA. And Lebron wants to play 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.680 with his son at some point here. So it's not 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.279 this next season, It'll be the season after that. But 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:28.719 I don't know Lebron how long is he going to play? 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:30.120 Is he going to play just to be able to 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:32.640 play with his son or play against his son? And 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:36.200 then is Bronni good enough to get drafted? Now, if 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:38.640 I had a draft pick in the second round, sure 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:42.520 I'd take a chance on him. But you know the 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:47.159 fact that USC was interesting. I thought Oregon in Ohio state. 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:51.560 You know, he could go back to Ohio lebron of 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:55.360 course from Akron. I thought Oregon, because of the Nike connection, 0:05:55.800 --> 0:06:01.440 would be where he might end up. But USC they 0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:03.760 got a couple of good recruits there. I mean, Bronnie's 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:05.560 not even the biggest name there. He's not even the 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:09.440 best guard that they're recruiting. But when you watch him, 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.760 you like his his game. It just feels like he's 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.839 a good basketball player. But I don't know if he's like, 0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:20.599 oh my gosh, he's going to be something more than that. 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:24.200 And just I mean, you look at the sons of 0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:29.320 famous fathers. You know, Bobby Bonds was wonderful, Barry was 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.320 better than his dad, Ken Graphrey Senior was a really 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:36.839 good player. Junior was a whole lot better. Del Curry 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:41.680 was really good shooter. Steph obviously is better than his dad. 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.880 So it does happen, you know where that you know, 0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:47.839 Klay Thompson, Michael Thompson. Michael Thompson was a good player, 0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:51.080 won a couple of titles. Clay is a Hall of Famer. 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:57.920 But Bronnie in that pressure and now USC is going 0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:01.800 to be musty TV. Now I'm curious how many games 0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:06.200 that they're gonna have televised. PAC twelve doesn't even have 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.360 a TV deal yet for their football season coming up. 0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:14.560 Maybe Bronnie single handedly gets them a TV deal, or 0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:16.720 it'll be just no, we don't want anything else, we 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:21.920 just want USC basketball here. But I think I think 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:26.400 it's pretty uh pretty telling. There were this deep into 0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.560 you know, coming into the summer PAC twelve trying to 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:32.600 figure out are they adding new members? You're gonna have 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:35.240 a TV deal here? Pretty crazy? Yeah, pulling? 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.480 I think of all the angles off this, especially like 0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:41.680 ESPN and Fox Sports broadcasting way way more USC games 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:43.960 than they might have had basketball. Do you think Bronnie 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:48.000 James and his production company's dad's production company make his 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.880 freshman year in college into a TV show like a 0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:53.600 thirty not thirty for thirty, but like like Hard Knocks, 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:56.000 but it's focus around him. The cameras follo him around 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:57.800 all the time. He's one year of college. 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:00.400 Yeah, but I would want the kid to be able 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:01.080 to be a kid. 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.320 But I wonder if the kid may want that, because 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:05.280 I don't know, you know. 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:07.480 That might be his dad telling that you want this. 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.640 Doesn't embrace social media and put stuff out there. I 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.320 wonder if he would, like, say, I'll find my own 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:13.800 production company and do my own deal. 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:17.400 I hope not. Just just let him be a kid. 0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:18.239 Yeah. 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:22.280 I mean there's already enough pressure. You're gonna put cameras 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:27.080 on him. I hope he's able to just because let 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.960 him have fun. I think that's the most important thing. 0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.320 Have fun. And he's getting what six to seven million 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:36.680 in name, image and likeness already, and not that money 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:41.040 matters maybe in his family, but this would be his money, 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:43.760 so may be a little bit different there. 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:46.720 Yeah, Mark, Yeah, too late on the follow the team 0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:49.000 around thing, because they did that for a Sierra Canyon 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:50.960 when he's in high school. They had a show one 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:54.240 I think Prime Amazon Prime called the Top Class and 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:56.480 they followed those kids the past two years. 0:08:57.240 --> 0:08:57.440 Yeah. 0:08:57.480 --> 0:08:57.800 I just. 0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:02.040 There's so much pressure on these kids so early. Let it. 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.439 Let him have fun as much fun as you can 0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:08.800 possibly have. I mean, every game is going to be scrutinized. 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:13.680 They just are. But he's a good player. I think 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:14.959 that's and he's getting better. 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:16.400 I like that. Uh. 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.440 And he and he's not a gunner. Yeah. If you 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:22.240 go back and you're you're watching players who played in 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:25.360 high school and you're like, all right, that guy's got 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:29.040 to learn how to play with his teammates. Ronnie knows 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:30.640 how to do that, and he plays both ends of 0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:33.480 the floor. It seems like a really good player. 0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:35.480 Yeah, Mark, And I think playing at one of those 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:37.480 schools like Sierra Canyon where you have a bunch of 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:41.200 division on prospects, yeah, is much easier. Say if you 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:44.000 you know, you in high school where you're far and 0:09:44.040 --> 0:09:46.320 away the best player, the best shooter or whatever, and 0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:48.640 now you go to college where everybody's a me too guy, 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:50.440 whereas I was all stay, okay, me too. 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:53.960 Yeah I evers thirty. Okay, me too. So I think 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:58.000 he is my dad. Yeah, oh that's true. 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:01.000 But but he has a a couple of players he 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:04.280 played with were in the NBA when he was I 0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:09.400 think a sophomore, guys who were two or three players 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:12.520 that are in the NBA. Grizzlies had one of those players, 0:10:12.520 --> 0:10:13.920 more Zaire Williams. 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:16.520 Yeah, and Lebron was saying that he was like, man, 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:19.640 I'm playing against a kid that play with my son. 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.760 Yeah, I know, makes you feel old. 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:22.600 Uh. 0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:26.200 Sarah in Kentucky, Good morning, Sarah, what's on your mind? 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:29.520 First time?

Best and worst 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:24.720 of the weekend. I saw this story from last night. 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:28.480 Jim er say, the owner of the Colts has issued 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:32.159 a warning to any NFL teams that are attempting to 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:38.119 contact Andrew Luck or any associate of his that it 0:17:38.160 --> 0:17:41.320 would be a clear violation of the league's tampering policy. 0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:46.359 Now you're probably saying, well, who contacted Andrew Luck? Well, 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:50.520 there's an article that was written that says the Washington 0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:56.320 Commanders reached out to Andrew Luck and he still has 0:17:56.680 --> 0:18:00.359 three seasons on his contract with the Cold. When he 0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.760 retired in twenty nineteen, he had three years left on 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:07.880 his contract, which means he's still the property of the Colts. 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.280 The Colts still own his rights. But I guess the 0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:14.720 commanders reached out. This is a couple of years ago. 0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:19.119 Andrew Luck is thirty three now. ESPN reported on Saturday 0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:23.399 that Washington made attempts in twenty twenty two to see 0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:27.160 if Andrew Luck had any interest coming back to the NFL. 0:18:28.560 --> 0:18:34.399 It's unclear who exactly Washington had contact with about Andrew Luck. 0:18:35.840 --> 0:18:41.040 The NFL's anti tampering policy somewhat vague, but direct contact 0:18:41.240 --> 0:18:45.280 with the player is not required for a violation to occur. 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:52.119 So any public or private statement of interest qualified or 0:18:52.240 --> 0:18:57.440 unqualified in another club's player to that player's agent or representative. 0:18:58.000 --> 0:19:02.120 So the relevant portion of the policy states, so if 0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:04.720 you reached out to somebody who's friends with Andrew Luck, 0:19:05.040 --> 0:19:08.320 or maybe his father, wanted to gauge his interest, even 0:19:08.359 --> 0:19:11.159 though I mean, what would it take for you to 0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:13.679 get Andrew Luck a to come out of retirement and 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:19.000 be compensation for the Colts for Andrew Luck. And if 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:20.840 you're the Colts and you knew Andrew Luck was going 0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:23.400 to come out of retirement maybe in twenty twenty two, 0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:26.879 then you would have said join us, you're still under 0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:31.720 contract here. This is with Daniel Snyder running the ship 0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:34.600 there with the commanders, right, oh yeah, all right. 0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:36.480 He blew through the stop sign of before. 0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:39.600 Do we like this that they would have reached out 0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:41.480 behind the Colts back? 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:49.640 Well, yeah, would you know the GM's always say we've 0:19:49.680 --> 0:19:52.040 looked at every option at the quarterback position the command 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:52.320 I mean. 0:19:52.280 --> 0:19:55.040 You have to look at the correct option, like what 0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:59.359 is technically correct or legal with the NFL, and they 0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:00.080 didn't do that. 0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:02.000 I guess if you're the Commanders, you would have to 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:06.000 go you know, third party, fifth party and gauge him 0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:08.320 if he has any interest and you find out first, Yeah, 0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:09.800 I would. I would want to play for other francs. 0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:11.480 Even you get an inkling, then you can call the 0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:13.120 Colts and say what would it take? You can't go. 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:15.440 Yeah, But if you're Andrew Luck and you were deciding 0:20:15.480 --> 0:20:18.760 to come out of retirement, would you go to the Commanders. 0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:20.520 I mean it's a nice. 0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:24.240 Team, but lovely community of course schools. 0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:27.919 I guess I give them credit that they tried to 0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:33.600 make the team better. I don't know. I mean, I'm 0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:37.200 sure Jim irsay, you know, made this an even bigger deal. 0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:41.120 But you are doing something that's illegal. You're tampering with 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:45.880 another player who's under contract. Now does the NFL investigate? 0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:50.760 That's really what this comes down to. If you're Jim Mersay, 0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:53.480 do you say to the commissioner, Hey, we got to 0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:55.800 find out here, We got to find out who reached 0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:59.560 down to Andrew Luck? Does Andrew Luck tell the commit 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:02.800 Does Can the commissioner reach out to Andrew Luck and 0:21:02.880 --> 0:21:07.160 say there was tampering I'm going to find out who 0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.640 did it because we can't have that in our league. 0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:15.240 Does does Andrew Luck squeal? Do the Colts get compensation? 0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.919 Yes, Tod Washington's been investigated so much lately, you might 0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:20.439 as well do a little more investigating it. 0:21:20.480 --> 0:21:23.040 To what they're doing, it doesn't seem like they find anything. 0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:27.680 They're like, we're still investigating. They're still investigating stuff from 0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:31.560 when Daniel Snyder was still there in there supposed to 0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:35.880 be that big league wide investigation into I hope they 0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:38.440 didn't drop that and go, yeah, he's gone, so then 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:41.840 nothing to see here. They still they still need to 0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:42.920 bring that to light. 0:21:43.000 --> 0:21:45.120 Yeah, Paul, imagine Daniel stided to get a call from 0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:48.720 his in house counsels, you know, the NFL's investigating, and 0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:51.520 he has to Can you be more specific? Yeah, well 0:21:51.520 --> 0:21:52.480 it's about the player thing. 0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:56.439
