Nothing gets 0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:56.440 the sports world more excited than a superstar free agent 0:00:56.520 --> 0:00:59.720 on the move. You think back to Lebron the decision 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:05.080 to go to Miami shack leaving Orlando, and remember Peyton Manning. 0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:07.679 We weren't sure where Peyton was going yet, people who 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.720 were staking out local airports to see if Peyton was 0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:14.080 coming or going. And then the Greek Freak he had 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:16.600 the opportunity to hit the open market. He would have 0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:21.319 been in that category, but instead he doesn't care about 0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:24.960 our content, and of course this show is all about content. 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.520 If he had left, then it's a big deal. He 0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:30.560 signs the Supermax. He stays in Milwaukee, so we don't 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:34.880 get any rumors, no whispers, no I'm hearing source close 0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:38.800 to me says he wasn't looking at mansions in Beverly 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:43.400 Hills or condos South Beach. Nope, He's staying in Milwaukee. 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:47.400 So now the topic becomes can they do enough to 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.800 win a title there. He's going to be there for 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.760 five years. He'll be thirty one when this contract ends, 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:57.720 plenty of time to get another Max contract. But the 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:00.320 Bucks haven't been able to find the right formula for 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:03.200 the Greek free But they've signed him up and it's 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:06.240 now time to get to work. We were robbed of 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:10.000 the potential for some good content here, but maybe rewarded 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.600 with some great basketball. And I started to wonder, was 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:17.000 this a great day for the NBA? And you probably 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:20.160 have an immediate reaction of of course he stayed in Milwaukee. 0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:23.160 We loved the smaller markets. But was it a great 0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.160 day for the NBA because had he decided to bypass 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.920 the Supermax and let's say he wanted to join the 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:34.200 Miami Heat, Let's say he wanted to join the Dallas Mavericks, 0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:37.000 and I was told those were the two teams that 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:40.519 he was strongly considering that he liked the makeup of 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:46.760 the teams. But also the tax implications and the fact 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:49.240 that you state income tax with you don't have that 0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:51.519 in Texas and Florida. That was factoring in as well. 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:54.560 We'll talk to Mannix about that, but that's what I 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:59.320 was told yesterday. But we like it when we have 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:02.919 these super teams. You may not like Golden State when 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:05.560 Kevin Durant was there, but you knew he was there. 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:09.800 That was the topic of conversation. Either loved watching it 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:13.560 or hated watching it. Lebron going to Miami, you either 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:18.080 loved it or you hated it. Kyrie kd in Brooklyn, 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:22.200 maybe James Harden going there. That's what gets us talking. 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:27.359 And if the Greek Freak had gone to Miami or Dallas, 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:31.639 it would be a bigger deal than him staying in Milwaukee. 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:37.000 I love that Milwaukee has a franchise and that it's 0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:41.000 a formidable franchise. It's a relevant franchise from the standpoint 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.760 of they're going to be there in the playoffs. They're 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:46.200 usually up there with the best record in the NBA 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:50.040 during the regular season. But I don't think that other 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:55.839 teams fans around the NBA go gotta beat Milwaukee. They 0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.840 care about the regular season. A lot of these teams, 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:01.760 with a lot of these stars ours aren't really concerned 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:04.160 about what their seeding is going to be as long 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:05.960 as you have a home court advantage in the first 0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:09.280 round and you don't even have fans in the stands, 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.240 and then you were in the bubble. But the Greek 0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:16.320 freaks staying there, I don't think it's great for the NBA. 0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:19.159 It's great for Milwaukee. It's great for small markets. But 0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:23.400 if I'm the commissioner and I was wondering about Adam Silver, 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.320 not that he would ever say it publicly, like poy, 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.320 it would have been great to have him team up 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:33.240 with Luca, Chris Stops or South Beach, and I got 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.919 that roster, and now I got another Like you want 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:42.680 great teams. I don't want parody, and not that Milwaukee 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:47.800 falls into the category of hey, they're just an average team. 0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:51.279 I like superpowers. I like when there's a villain. I 0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:53.599 like when there's a team that is must see TV, 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:57.240 and you have that with the Lakers. I don't like 0:04:57.320 --> 0:04:59.599 that Anthony Davis did what he did with New Orleans, 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.800 but and in my job, I like the fact that 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.479 he did because it gave us something to talk about. 0:05:05.520 --> 0:05:11.560 Although Anthony Davis in New Orleans with Zion Williamson would 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:14.599 have been pretty juicy as well. But that's what we like. 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.040 You know, Kawhi wants to go to La bring Paul 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.440 George in. We spent a lot of time talking about that. 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.960 How many teams do we not talk about in the NBA, 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:28.320 And the teams we do talk about usually have star power, 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:31.599 you know, somebody wants to join the team, somebody has 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:35.640 joined the team and they create something there. When I 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:38.560 was growing up, players would never leave to go play 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:41.760 for somebody else. I mean it was really rare. I 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.279 go back to Kareem when he was lu Alcindor and 0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:47.120 he won a title in Milwaukee and he wanted to 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.480 go to Los Angeles. He wanted out of Milwaukee. He 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:51.760 wanted to go to Los Angeles, and that was a 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:57.400 big deal at the time. Shack leaving Orlando. He wanted 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:01.840 to get out, he wanted something, and that wasn't as 0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:04.440 big a deal because you're thinking, oh, okay, I get it. 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.000 But when lu Al Sindor did that, that was a 0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.120 big deal because he did not want to stay there 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:12.279 and he wanted to go to Los Angeles, back where 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:15.599 he played his college ball. When Will Chamberlain got traded 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.400 from Philadelphia to the Lakers, I don't remember it at 0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:23.080 the time, but I'm sure that it was a huge, 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:28.480 huge moment in the NBA. But you know, the media 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.920 covering the NBA back then was a whole lot different 0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:34.760 than it is now. And we're waiting for James Harden 0:06:34.880 --> 0:06:38.040 because James Harden's the big winner. Believe it or none. 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:41.640 Because now it's James Harden. It's his world. With free 0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:45.640 agency or the trade possibilities there, you know, there's no 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:49.120 real free agents there. It's about James Harden. And I 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.400 watched the game last night. I don't know what James 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.640 Harden's philosophy is, what his game plan is, but if 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:59.159 your game plan was, let me show up out of 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:03.120 shape and give the impression I don't care. Well done. 0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:07.040 He's one for one. I thought that he'd be a 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:10.400 good soldier and then just say behind the scenes, look, 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.920 I'm gonna go out there. I'm gonna be fair to 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:16.800 my new coach Steven Silas and John Wall coming in. 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:21.120 But make no mistake about this. I want out and 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:24.120 I'm gonna be a good soldier. I want out. But 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.160 maybe he'll he didn't talk to the media last night. 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:30.880 He doesn't look like he's in shape. Although, in fairness 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:33.400 to him, Luca don Chick doesn't look like he's in shape. 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:37.280 I think they were hanging out together somewhere at some point. Yes, 0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:41.559 seven O'Connor. I don't think that was necessary. James Harden 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:45.120 is the big winner. Oh all right, that is just 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:49.920 an unnecessary shot to take it James Harden. Wow, Wow, Okay, 0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:54.720 my apologies. I apologies. Yes, it's tough to tell whether 0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:56.760 James Harden is or is not in shape because they 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:58.400 put a picture of him last night. It was a 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:01.920 picture and he's in He's wearing his sweatsuit, you know, 0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:05.040 over So's. It's a little puffier. He looks a little sweaty. 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.280 His beer looks a little scraggly. And then they put 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:09.360 a picture of him playing in the playoffs three months 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.440 ago and his shirts off, and he looks kind of jacked, 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:13.640 And I don't know, and I know it's not photoshop, 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.920 but I can't tell underneath there he's pudgier or just 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:21.240 a picture appears to be puggier. He looked large and 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:25.160 in charge last night. I will say that he did 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:29.920 look a little thick. Yes, McLevin. I saw a tweet 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:35.400 fear the beer slash be fear the beer. Oh that's 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:39.520 being not implying it. Yeah, anyway, the new Fritzie Christmas 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:42.600 t shirts are available thirty percent off the calendars four 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:46.679 more days for guaranteed Christmas delivery, and you can go 0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:50.440 to dan Patrick dot com shop dot dan patrick dot 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:54.199 com to playsher orders. His program brought to you by Masterclass. 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:57.440 I can't tell you enough good things about Masterclass and 0:08:57.520 --> 0:08:59.920 the things that they offer. If you want to learn 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:05.160 basketball from Steph Curry, you have that opportunity, Tennis from Serena. 0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:07.680 You want to learn about comedy from Steve Martin, There's 0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.440 so many things in there. Cooking with Gordon Ramsey and 0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:14.080 so many different classes. They're over ninety and they're taught 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:16.240 by world class masters at the top of their field. 0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:18.959 This holiday, when you buy an annual membership, you get 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:21.840 another annual membership for free. Go to masterclass dot com 0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:26.240 slash patrick. That's masterclass dot com slash patrick. And I 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:29.280 did want to get a masterclass and give it to 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:33.000 Todd so he could take comedy and learn from some 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.240 of the masters. I would watch them like Steve Martin. 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:37.960 I know. I've said many times that I want to 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:40.120 kind of create my own content, even if people don't laugh, 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.080 because I feel like, you know, you shouldn't you should 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.760 come up with your own stuff. But that is something 0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:47.160 I would If that was a gift, I would gladly welcome. 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.120 That Isn't that crazy logic is especially because the biggest 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.360 names in the history of comedy, most of them write 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:54.319 maybe little to none of their own stuff. They sit 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:56.160 in a group and they take notes off of what 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.480 other writers say. If you ever watched the credit to 0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:01.720 the end of a comedy show, our Comedito special, there's 0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:04.880 a whole list of writers. So you know, who am 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:06.839 I to say that I shouldn't listen to what other 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:10.840 people are writing thank you too well. Lebron James played 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.920 seven years with Cleveland when he left to go to Miami. 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:17.400 He was twenty six at the time. Janis has played 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:22.079 seven years in Milwaukee. He decided to stay. He's twenty six. 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:26.280 I get it. Greek freaks comfortable there. Good for him, 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:29.800 Happy for him that he's content he's getting paid the 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:33.360 biggest contract in NBA history. But I don't know if 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:36.720 it was a great day for the NBA. As strange 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:39.400 as my logic may sound. If you said he was 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:43.800 going to be paired up with Luca and Kristopsporzingis, or 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.280 he was going to be with Jimmy Butler and that 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:52.160 young Miami Heat team, that is must see TV. I've 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:55.880 said this before, and I watch a lot of NBA. 0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:59.320 The Bucks, to me, that is not an exciting team. 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:03.439 They win, it's but it's not an exciting too. It 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:05.720 felt like there was a glass ceiling for them when 0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.840 we get to the playoffs, usually the second round. But 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.040 if you're a Bucks fan, you gotta be happy today. 0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:14.320 I think you were holding your breath and I understand that, 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.880 But now, what are you going to add for the 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:23.880 Greek freak? Drew holiday. Quality guard going to need more 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.600 than that. You know, Philadelphia is going to be better. 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:29.080 We know Brooklyn's going to be better. Boston is good, 0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:32.040 Miami is good, like the East is not. You know, 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.040 Toronto might might take a step back, but you know, 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.640 the East is a little more formidable it used to be. 0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:40.120 The West was, you know, the top heavy with the 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:43.080 great teams, but the East. And we don't know what's 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:45.840 going to happen with James Harden if he goes to Philadelphia, 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.360 if he goes to Brooklyn. You know what that does 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.880 with the balance of power in the NBA. But it 0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:55.960 was a great day for Wisconsin sports. But I anybody 0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:59.360 understand what I'm saying, ain't but they disagree with what 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.760 I'm saying. I like the super teams because we go 0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:05.760 out of our way to watch them, like there's a 0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:10.000 there's something that you always think they could win a championship. 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:14.280 I don't think Milwaukee can win a championship, not right now. 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.760 And I think he saw with the Miami Heat did 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:20.400 to the Milwaukee Bucks in the playoffs and probably went, 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:24.000 if I can't beat them, maybe I joined them. And 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.800 I've told you I've a source who works with the Heat, 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:31.040 and he said he sent us a sad face emoji 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:34.480 last night when they got the news about the Greek freak. 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:37.560 I think they thought they had a great shot and 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:41.160 the possibility of maybe, you know, and I still think 0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:44.440 Miami is in the running for James Harden and it 0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:49.480 would be Bam out of Bio and Tyler Hero as 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:53.480 a possibility. And if I'm Houston, you got my attention 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:56.240 because I got an All Star and Bam out of 0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:59.120 Bio and I got an emerging star in Tyler Hero. 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:03.160 You got my attention. But that's just something that you 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:06.520 can put that on the back burner. Yes, Polly, you're 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:08.200 right though, because you know you don't want to admit it. 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:10.960 But when the Golden State Warriors were dominant, it was 0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:13.320 really great for the NBA. When when the Bulls put 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:15.760 all their guys together, or the Miami Heat, the Miami Heat. 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:19.120 Lebron years are kind of peak Lebron and that's when 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:22.000 the NBA has a focal point that everyone can consume. 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:24.480 It's easy to consume when you have to know all 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:26.719 these different teams, it's tougher. It's tougher on the average fan. 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:30.600 It's fantastic day for Milwaukee Sports. But for the concept 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:32.800 of the NBA, it's not so much all right, some 0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:36.720 other things. So Jannis gets two twenty eight for five years. 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:40.920 The NFL says, no playoff bubble. I thought that there 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.280 might have been that possibility of once we got to 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:46.880 the conference championship games, but the commissioner says no. The 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:51.240 rankings came out the college football selection committee, Alabama notre 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:55.559 named Clemson, Ohio State. No real movement there. You got 0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:59.720 A and M on the doorstep, Iowa State, Florida Florida 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:04.520 and louses to LSU, a subpar LSU team and I'm 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:13.080 being polite and loses at home and drops one spot. Okay, 0:14:14.480 --> 0:14:17.200 once I once again, I just would love, you know, 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:20.000 just give me transparency here, Like, let me not add 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:23.119 logic to this, because when I add logic, my head explodes. 0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:29.040 I I hope one day we get to watch a meeting. 0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:33.360 You know, it's like the selection committee with college basketball 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.640 and march mandus, Like I would just let us see, 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:38.320 just let us hear what you talk about so we 0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:41.680 understand it. So at least let us be in on, 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:46.760 you know, the joke, because Florida, that's that's a terrible 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.520 loss by Florida. Now you can say, well, it's a 0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:52.320 last second field goal, and you know player threw a shoe. 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:54.800 You it shouldn't have been that close. You're playing LSU 0:14:56.600 --> 0:15:00.880 and you have Alabama coming up, but they've left the 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:06.240 door open for Florida. Florida beats Alabama, does Florida get in? 0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:12.040 And my college source said again last night that he 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:16.840 thinks if Clemson loses to Notre Dame, A and M 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:21.880 gets in. And I said, well, many they love shiny 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:25.360 objects there to get Trevor Lawrence in there, and Dabbo, 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:30.800 I don't know. And I said, you know, Tennessee plays 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:32.880 A and M. Is there any chance? He goes, no, 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.800 it's Tennessee, And I go, okay, my man, I said, 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:39.960 you know, we always subscribe to the there's always a chance. 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.320 There's always a chance. You can't say you've got no chance, 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:46.080 because we've seen that that yes, hunt one. They'll never 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:48.280 let us listen in on those conversations as much as 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.520 we love to because they and if they did put 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:52.720 cameras in there, they'd been passing secret notes like we 0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:54.720 got to have Ohio State and it's the Buckeyes. Are 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:56.960 you kidding me? There's no way that could actually verbalize 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:58.800 that for the world to hear, even though it's blatantly 0:15:58.840 --> 0:16:02.280 obvious to most of us. It just feels like they 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:07.000 have You ever had the telemarketer who calls and and 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:09.320 you say something and they got an answer back for you, 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.560 and then you say something, and then they got an 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:14.960 answer back for you, and you're going, man, they're really good. 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:19.760 It feels like the college football Playoff Committee has posteds. 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:23.000 So when you go, h okay, so what what? Okay? 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:25.520 When they bring up Coastal Carolina, Oh, just say that, 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:30.520 they say that, Okay, they haven't played a tough schedule, 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:37.320 and then it'll be Cincinnati. Cincinnati hasn't played since the 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:40.280 third week of November. Yeah, how am I doing? You? 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:44.080 Are you doing? Greed? Um? Ohio States played five games, 0:16:44.520 --> 0:16:49.920 but they passed the eye test. Okay, all right, why 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.440 do you Why do you guys love Iowa States so much? 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:56.680 Why why do we love uh? Um? They have a 0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:59.360 really good quarterback, they have a good wide receiver, good 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:01.520 tight end and running back and they're playing really well 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:05.680 as of late. How am I doing? Yeah? Okay, that's 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:12.560 what it feels like. They have talking points. We'll talk 0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:15.960 to Greg Sankey, the SEC commissioner, because if we expanded 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:23.640 the playoffs to eight teams, they'd have what three four 0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:26.520 teams in there. Yeah, if if there was an eight 0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:28.520 team playoff this year, the SEC would have three of 0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:30.680 the teams currently and the first round matchup as of 0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:34.280 right now would be George Obama, Florida Notre Dame. That 0:17:34.320 --> 0:17:36.320 would be of a lot of money, a lot of 0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:39.840 good football. But I get A and M two yep, 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:44.960 oh yeah, am right, yes, McLeman. I think they put 0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:47.520 Iowa State at six, so when Oklahoma blows the doors 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:49.560 off them, they could have the same final four they 0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:53.560 do every single year. And I know, but when the 0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:56.359 season started, I think I didn't have Notre Dame in 0:17:56.400 --> 0:18:00.240 the final four, but it was Clemson, Alabama, Oklahoma, and 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:03.720 I don't know what the other school was, but you know, 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:07.800 you just go, okay, it's it's probably around five, six 0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:11.919 seven teams that we factor in there every year, and 0:18:12.000 --> 0:18:15.159 it's going to be the same. It's National signing Day. Check. 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:18.159 You know who's got the best recruiting classes coming in? 0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:24.239 Chances are Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State. They're gonna be up 0:18:24.240 --> 0:18:28.760 there in the top three. Yes, love. Yeah, so what 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.040 would a spread be? I keep asking this, but isn't 0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:33.119 there an argument that Clemson would be, like, you know, 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.000 huge favorites over these other teams, even that Cincinnati. I 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:39.320 don't know about Cincinnati. But Florida, I know they lost, 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:41.720 but they're a better team than than some of the 0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:44.720 other teams. But do they deserve to only drop one 0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:51.400 spot when they lost at home to LSU? Shoe ls shoe. 0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:54.399 But that's what I want to know. Just tell me, 0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:59.159 because it just feels like all else fails keep power 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:01.879 conferences in top ten. I mean, that's just what it 0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:04.199 feels like. And there's no way you can convince me 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:08.080 Florida should drop only one spot at home against LSU 0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:11.199 and they lost. Georgia has not even been in the 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:14.879 conversation for a long time, and they still hover because 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:17.720 they're in the SEC. That's all. Just let us know. 0:19:17.800 --> 0:19:21.120 What are you playing chess? Playing checkers? Like maybe you're 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:23.960 playing part cheese, like we don't know. But that's why 0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:26.080 I'm trying to figure out here. I don't think that's 0:19:26.119 --> 0:19:29.239 asking too much, isn't all right? Chris Mannox will join us? 0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:32.720 Was yesterday a great day for the NBA? And I 0:19:32.720 --> 0:19:36.280 want to ask him about the Lakers new secret weapon. 0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:40.560 He was in the G League last year. We'll talk 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:42.800 to Mannox Soill Joan is coming up next twenty one 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:47.480 after the hour. This is the Dan Patrick Show.

The first segment was 0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:53.080 yesterday a good day for the NBA. Okay? Yes or no? 0:21:53.320 --> 0:21:58.000 All right? Oh my gosh, I just saw this name. 0:21:59.119 --> 0:22:05.280 It's National sign Day. This guy's name is General Booty. 0:22:07.240 --> 0:22:11.560 General Booty has got to go to Army, right, his 0:22:11.920 --> 0:22:14.240 name is General Booty or his rank is general? No, No, 0:22:14.320 --> 0:22:18.400 he's General Booty. He's already a general. And uh he's 0:22:18.440 --> 0:22:20.919 a high school player out of Allen, Texas. Is he 0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:25.160 related to the Booty's of LSU? He is the Uh? Yeah, 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:27.960 I think he's a nephew of John David Booty and 0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:31.560 he's the son of former LSU receiver Abraham Booty. Yeah, seton. 0:22:32.240 --> 0:22:34.040 You know, if Army doesn't sign him for some reason, 0:22:34.040 --> 0:22:36.119 I feel like the Miami Hurricanes could really use a 0:22:36.160 --> 0:22:38.800 General Booty too. I just feel like he would fit 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:45.280 right in. Oh, there's somebody jokes. You know. His uncle 0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:48.119 was Josh Booty, former LSU and NFL quarterback. Who have 0:22:48.160 --> 0:22:50.320 we had on the show years and years ago? Yeah, 0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:56.080 coach Saban Booty call what I know? You know, the 0:22:56.160 --> 0:22:58.919
