Patrick, that's masterclass dot com 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:29.480 slash Patrick come up with a poll question, play of 0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:32.040 the day, stat of the day, all of that coming 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:34.840 up here in a moment. As we recap some of 0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.560 the headlines, Nets roll over the Warriors, the Lakers get 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.600 their rings and then they get their bell rung by 0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:44.960 the Clippers. The bull games Louisiana Tech, Georgia's Southern Memphis 0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:51.320 versus Florida Atlantic, and Dwayne Haskins says he's starry, sorry 0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:54.800 for the strip sack. You know he's got the Captain 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:59.160 C on his jersey. I did not know that. I 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:02.359 don't know if it's still there. It shouldn't be there. 0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:06.240 But Dwayne Haskins and now what do you do? Alex? 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:09.200 This has been such a and it's rare to say this. 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:13.480 Washington has been a feel good story. They're in the playoffs. Chase. 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.680 You got Alex Smith who came back from nearly losing 0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:22.280 his leg. Ron Rivera has battled cancer. Daniel Snyder hasn't 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:26.360 done anything stupid during the season. He did prior to 0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:29.560 the start of the season. He just settled I guess, 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:32.960 a sexual harassment suit out of court from back in 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.160 two thousand and nine. We just found out about that. 0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:38.560 The name they're going to stay, probably with the Washington 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.680 football team. But through all of this, and then you 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:45.600 have Dwayne Haskins, who acts like he's on scholarship here. 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:50.000 I would enjoy my final two games there if I 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.280 was Dwayne, and maybe you get to play, maybe you 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.680 get to show somebody else you can play. But I 0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:59.000 go back to what urban Meyer said about Dwayne Haskins. 0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.480 You know, maturity shoes. That was a big concern. It 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.240 only really played one year where he was the focal 0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:08.120 point in college and he had a great year, but 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:12.040 maturity and we've seen a lack of maturity now twice 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:15.480 with Dwayne Haskins. But you have to play him because 0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:18.760 Alex Smith, if he's not able to go, and you're 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:22.000 trying to get into the playoffs and you're actually playing well, 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:25.839 your defense is playing well, and then you have this 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:32.400 a selfish move by an immature player and his days 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:35.040 have to be numbered. There, Play of the day, stat 0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:38.200 of the day, all of that coming up eight seven, seven, 0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:40.520 three d P Show email address DP at dan Patrick 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:43.279 dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. Last night we 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:46.200 got a glimpse of what the Nets might be. We 0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:48.679 know they're going to be a great offensive team. Kyrie Irving, 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:52.599 Kevin Durant didn't disappoint. They blew out Golden State. Duran 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:57.000 and Kyrie looked unstoppable. They've got really, really talented role players, 0:04:57.080 --> 0:05:01.160 Joe Harris, Jared Allen, Carris, LeVert, first time head coach 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:04.960 Steve Nash look comfortable on the sidelines. They played with energy. 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:08.080 You know, the question was the competition level. I mean, 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:11.080 they were blowing out Golden State and I don't know 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:14.320 how good the Warriors are going to be. But the 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.760 Nets stay healthy and that's a big if because Kyrie 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.200 was out most of the season with their shoulder injury, 0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:24.160 Kevin Durant coming off the Achilles. But you know there's 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.719 gonna be some matchups there in the East. The East 0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:30.040 is a very very it's the East is strong this 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:33.880 year and the Eastern Conference wide open. I know it's 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.200 one game. Nets had a lot of eyeballs on them 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:39.520 for their season opener, and they delivered in a big way. 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:43.360 We tend to overreact just like with the Clippers. Oh 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.240 my god, you see what the Clippers did to the 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:50.000 Lakers last night? Yeah, I did. I mean Paul George 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:53.200 played really well, so you're gonna go yep, I can 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:57.640 count on that, Paul. You know, payoff George is a 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.800 few few months late here on a big performance, and 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:05.240 he's not blaming anybody after last night's perform. Apparently. I 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.280 didn't know if he said anything like, hey, without Doc 0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.839 Rivers hanging over him, you know, coaching me see what 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.920 I can do. But Paul George played well last night, 0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:17.280 looked really really good. But it's one game and it 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:20.640 doesn't mean anything to me. I know, you want to 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:23.080 win Opening Night. You're getting the rings. I know that 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:29.600 we're gonna overreact. The Lakers did this last year. They 0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:33.520 lost and then they won seventeen of eighteen. It's just 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:38.560 one game. We love to overreact one way or another. Now. 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:40.559 I don't know if Golden State's going to be this bad. 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.400 I don't think they will be, but maybe they're a 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.520 team that gets in eighth playoffs spot in the West. Maybe. 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:51.159 I don't know, but Brooklyn looked really good, really comfortable, 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:54.480 and I expect them to be really good. I expect 0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:58.760 the Lakers to be great this year, but I think 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:02.359 this was a preseason gay. That's what this felt like. 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:05.160 You know, we always say this about Bill Belichick. First 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.839 four games of the regular season. He sort of uses 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.400 that as his preseason. He wants to see what he has, 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:14.320 what he doesn't have, and then you start to see 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:18.040 in week five who the Patriots really are. That's Belichick's 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:22.120 philosophy and has been. You know, the Lakers, I would 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.240 just ease into the season. You got new new players, 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:30.200 new roles, and I gotta make sure that I got Lebron. 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:34.640 All I care about is how healthy everybody is and rested. 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:37.320 Once we get to the playoffs, that's it. I don't 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.760 care if you're the one seed, two seed, three seed, 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.280 as long as you're one of the top four seeds there. 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:46.560 But I don't read anything into this that the Clippers 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:48.920 came out and beat the Lakers on the night when 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.680 they got their championship rings. Now I'm probably in the 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:56.040 minority because people in my business know that's not a 0:07:56.080 --> 0:08:00.360 good take, that's not a hot take, because I take 0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:06.360 would be Clippers a little hungrier, Lebron starting to show 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:10.440 his age here. Too many new faces with the Lakers. Here, 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:16.200 Paul George is on him mission. All right, get ready, 0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:20.120 you'll probably get a strong dose of that today. Yeah shee. 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:28.960 Playoff George doesn't sound nearly as cool as playoff Pe. Well, hey, 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:31.880 good do you guys don't want playoff George to show up. 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:36.040 He's gonna really bring the pain. I'm going to roast you. 0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:38.600 I am playoff Pa. You're like, dang, you don't mess 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:42.440 with that playoff George. He's coming to town to can't 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:45.080 ask and take names. Here's playoff Pee. After the big 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:47.839 win last night, y'all, I don't know, man coming off 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.960 to show the surgeries ain't easy. Two years removed, I 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:52.960 had a heck of a offseason coming into this year 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:54.680 where I was able to train and get back on 0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:57.160 the floor play basketball coming into the season. So I'm 0:08:57.200 --> 0:08:58.760 just in a good half space. I'm in a good 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.040 physical space, and I'll put a lot of work coming 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:06.120 into the shoe. Good. You should paying you fifty million 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:09.200 dollars a year. You should be awesome. You should be great, 0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:13.200 You should be in shape. I like how when you 0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:17.000 know athletes take credit for things that they like. You're 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:19.160 getting paid to be great and they go, yeah, man, 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:23.880 I'm I'm bringing it. I worked out really hard to great. Congratulations. 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:27.959 It's like when a dad says he's yeah, man, I'm 0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:32.240 taking care of my kids. You're supposed to like, I'm 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.880 gonna compliment you, man, I take care of my kids. Yeah, 0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:39.640 they're your kids. So I got playoff pe He is 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.480 ready to go. Yeah, yeah, clem. You know who has 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:45.880 the most to lose here is Montrez Harrold, who jumped 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:47.880 from the Clippers of the Lakers. If the Clippers are 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:50.400 really good now the Lakers struggle, you gotta pin it 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:53.800 on him. Right. Let's let's the Lakers aren't going to 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:59.640 struggle that they're not Lebron career record season openers now 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:03.679 seven and eleven after last night's loss, including oh and three. 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:07.240 Since joining the Lakers last year, they won seven straight 0:10:07.320 --> 0:10:10.040 seventeen of their next eighteen after their opening night lost 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:14.319 two the Clippers, Yes to, did Paul George heard his 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:16.720 shoulder pushing all the blame of Duc Rivers. I'm wondering 0:10:16.760 --> 0:10:20.920 of how exactly I think he heard himself patting himself 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:24.800 on the back. Hey man, playoff? Hey man? Yeah, Paul, 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:28.040 I like turning into Game one to watch Mike. Hey, 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:30.520 there's Seargebacca. He's a Clipper. You know, you just kind 0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:32.520 of forget what the hell is Marcus All doing in 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.120 a Lakers uniform, Like, oh, he joined the team. My 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.600 favorite moment though, last night was when the Lakers were 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.000 getting their rings and they did these tape pieces where 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.360 the family members present the rings. And you know Alex 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:44.720 Crusoe at the backup guard who's bald and has the 0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:47.319 headband his dad had like a full head of hair, 0:10:48.520 --> 0:10:52.640 or Alex CRUs so lets skipped a generation. There was 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:56.400 an interesting moment after the game Kevin Durant and he 0:10:56.480 --> 0:10:59.800 was being interviewed by Charles Barclay and the TNT crew. 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:02.480 I'm gonna play the whole thing for you just because 0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:04.480 I got to kick out of it because I'm watching 0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.480 the game and you know, Marvin see Webber doing it, 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.000 and I thought, you know, let me just hang on 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:11.640 for a little while and listen to what they have 0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:13.520 to say. In the fourth quarter, as we like to say, 0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:17.240 they had some time to fill. And then at the 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:19.960 end of the game, Kevin Durant puts on the head 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:24.360 set and he has a conversate. Well, he there's I 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.080 can't say it's an interview, but this is what happened 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:30.920 on TNT with Kevin Durant. Yeah, we'll talk about you 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.880 coming back for the playoffs last year. So you've really 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:37.000 just been working on your game, trying to get back 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:41.320 your time and condition and really to be honest correct. Yeah, 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:44.360 you know, Kevin, you've been on championship teams, you've been 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:47.840 in NBA finals, and now you're taking some guys that 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.040 have only made the playoffs, like, what is the message 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.920 that you send them on a consistent basis from day 0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:58.800 one to end of season? Come in to work and 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:00.360 be the best you can be every day, and the 0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:03.480 rest to take care of it. So thanks a lot 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:06.480 for spending a couple of minutes with us. We appreciate you, yes, sir. 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:12.319 And so it was loud in that arena, couldn't hear 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.880 it was so much energy and there wasn't it was 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:23.439 excited about being exact guy. How was the shop is 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:28.880 free for the kids? Pretty good? If you're not there, ye, 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:33.679 ask me a question, Charles, how many how many gifts 0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:37.920 did you buy for kiddy this year? None? End of 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:46.040 the highlights? Yeah, you know how your kids doing well? 0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:51.000 First of all, Durant has his boy, Kyrie Irving's back here, 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.040 and Barkley has been critical of Kyrie Irving. So Kevin 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:57.800 Durant goes on there. Kevin Durant is not gonna do anything. 0:12:57.840 --> 0:12:59.840 You're not gonna say anything. Probably, I don't know why 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.160 did the interview unless they said, hey, you got to 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:05.440 do the interview here, but you know, Katie is not. 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:09.520 First of all, Charles's question is bad because it's a 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:14.560 close ended question where you allowed Durant to go yeah, 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:19.000 instead of saying something about, you know, explain about joining 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:21.319 this new team or whatever it might be to get 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:24.400 him talking. Durant did not want to be there. But 0:13:24.520 --> 0:13:28.160 I love the fact that they roast Durant right after 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:34.000 he does the interview with him. That was funny. But uh, yeah, 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:38.640 Katie did not. He did not want to be there. Yeah, seton. Yeah, 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:43.520 he broke your number one role of interviewing close ended question. Yes, 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:48.040 no answer. I said to Fritzie, reach out to Barkley, 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:49.680 wake him up and let me yell at him, just 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:53.160 like what are you doing? You know, Durant didn't want 0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:56.200 to do that interview, and but I love what they 0:13:56.240 --> 0:13:58.040 did at and I mean that was what was entertaining. 0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:01.480 That's what makes them so good is let's laugh at ourselves. 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:04.679 Although they're laughing, good luck getting kad the next time. 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:07.000 You'd think he didn't have something to say yes to. 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:09.360 Durant is so sensive. Is he's still upset from a 0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:11.320 few years ago when Berkley didn't like the fact that 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:12.960 he left to go to the Warriors. Is that like 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.960 still something that would be hovering in Durant's mind to 0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:21.040 just be short with him like that, sure he's Katie. Yeah. 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:23.400 And then the fact that Charles has been critical of 0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.320 Kyrie Irving. He's gonna go on there. He's not gonna 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:30.800 be effervescent, he's not going to be low quacious. He's 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:37.280 just gonna be yeah, yeah, yeah, pauling. But you know, 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:41.520 Charles is I know the question wasn't perfect, But Kevin Durant, 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:43.040 if you're going to agree to it, play along, have 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:44.680 a little fun talk about what's going on. You could 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:46.800 say a lot without saying anything. You could say a 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.400 full sentence and say nothing as well. And it's almost 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.640 like he went on. I think he went on to 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:53.560 send a message like to do that on purpose to 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:56.400 show he's the face of the team, but backing his guys, 0:14:56.440 --> 0:14:59.880 backing Kyrie specifically. Yeah, so it doesn't matter what the 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.760 question was. He wasn't giving you an answer, right, So 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:07.400 Charles could have asked a legitimate, good question. Kevin Durant 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:10.160 was not going to give him anything. Yeah. See, he 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:12.200 should have gotten on and just been like, well, you know, really, 0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:14.240 what I'm just gonna do is shut up and dribble 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:17.160 because I'm not actually that smart. So I really haven't 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.080 put much thought into why I came back. I'm just 0:15:19.120 --> 0:15:21.160 trying to play basketball, I guess, because I mean I 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:26.600 could really do. He could have had fun at Charles's expense. Yeah, Chuck, 0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:29.720 I joined another super team. Remember when you tried to 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.160 do that with Houston and try to join a super 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:34.920 team and it didn't work out? Did it? Like he 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.560 could have said, I mean he could be he could 0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:39.240 poke the barrel a little bit there and be a 0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:41.800 little mean spirited. I just think Durant goes, all right, 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:44.320 I'll talk to him. And then Charles had a long 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.800 winded question that wasn't good, and then you gave him 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:49.200 a chance to say yes or no, and then Kenny 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:53.760 tries to throw something in there, and then Ernie Ernie realizes, 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:57.040 let's circle the wagons here. Custer has been shot. You know, 0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:01.200 Custer's got arrows. You know, Well, I'm about we shut 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:05.160 the Hey, Kad, thank you. We appreciate your time. Spending 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:07.320 a couple of minutes is my favorite part of that. 0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:10.520 You spend a couple of minutes felt like a little 0:16:10.560 --> 0:16:14.080 longer than that. Yes, McLevin, I hate to bring this up, 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:16.000 but our Twitter timeline is filled with it. Did you 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:21.360 see the headline of the stadium they're destroying in San Diego? Yeah? 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:23.840 That kind of reminds me a little bit of a 0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:27.040 Pass interview. Basically, we have one hundred Matt Harvey references 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.000 on our Twitter timeline right now. He's just getting rid 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:32.560 of Qualcomm Stadium. I send it to Seaton uh and 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:35.880 Paulie this morning that they're they're tearing down Qualcom Stadium. 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:39.680 Very emotional moment for this show. Are we here to 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:42.560 honor Qualcom today? Qualcom Stadium? Yes? And I think maybe 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:47.400 we should bring back Matt Harvey's only Matt Harvey could 0:16:47.440 --> 0:16:49.880 tell us about Qualcom Stadium into it. So they're drop 0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:51.440 kicking the murf, that's what they're really going to do. 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:55.200 They're gonna do that. Oh you think, man, Jack Murphy Stadium. 0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:57.280 I know, you know what the murf is, Yeah, but 0:16:57.440 --> 0:16:59.480 not many people don't. I know, but people don't know 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.440 drop Kick Murphy. What do they hear my name's from 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:04.760 nineteen nine? Yeah, I mean we might know them. They're 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:09.520 Northeast based band, but that's that's in San Diego. So 0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.520 what's more of a reach Dropkick Murphy's or Jack Murphy Stadium. 0:17:12.560 --> 0:17:17.520 As far as what our audience would have never heard of, um, 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:21.119 I don't know, I'm not quite sure Ton, but usually 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:23.439 it's something that is not relevant to you know, the 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.159 last ten, fifteen, or twenty years. Yeah, in case you 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:29.520 forgot Matt Harvey when he was the Dark Night, he 0:17:29.560 --> 0:17:31.880 was on with us and um, he did not want 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:36.439 to talk about anything other than Qualcom. Today. Obviously they 0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:41.240 were were honoring and supporting Caul Coom. Yeah, and that's 0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:43.919 the obvious part. I do love that he's you know, 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:48.680 obviously we're here to honor Qualcom, and today we're gonna 0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:53.720 honor Qualca, the final moments of Quanca today. Obviously, today 0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:58.360 we were honoring and supporting Caulcom. But you can't offer 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.840 any more support to qualcom if they detonate, be a 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:05.359 lack of support, because it's it's headed down. It's headed 0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:09.440 down in a hurry, all right, we'll get to phone 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:12.720 calls here eight seven seven three DP show email address, DPA, 0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:16.240 Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show Frank Eye, 0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:19.080 Sola around the Horn.

Oh, 0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:57.119 by the way, we just showed if you were watching 0:19:57.119 --> 0:20:00.480 on Peacock Drew Brees at the Super Bowl and Miami. 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.840 This was the final segment of the show on that 0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:07.040 Friday of Super Bowl Week and Drew Brees we had 0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:10.840 hoped to have on He was across the hall and 0:20:10.960 --> 0:20:14.840 he was doing something and they heard my voice. He 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:18.240 came over, sat down on the set in the final 0:20:18.320 --> 0:20:20.080 segment because we didn't know if Drew was going to 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:21.760 come back or he was going to go to NBC 0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:24.880 to be part of their studio show. And he came 0:20:24.960 --> 0:20:27.800 in and then once he got done, stayed and then 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:31.119 we had some food that ribs on the trigger, so 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:36.040 Drew stayed there and had some ribs with us. That 0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:37.920 that was a fun show. That was a fun week 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:40.320 in Miami. And it would be difficult to go to 0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:43.680 the super Bowl this year because of you know what's 0:20:43.680 --> 0:20:49.560 going on with COVID, just the restrictions, the safety precautions 0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:52.720 that you're going to have to take. But I've been 0:20:52.800 --> 0:20:54.959 to I'm trying to think a super Bowl that I 0:20:55.000 --> 0:21:00.919 didn't go to, certainly in the last probably thirty years. 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:04.560 And I was just thinking about that last night, that 0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:06.720 if we aren't able to go to the super Bowl, 0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:08.640 I mean, we'll still cover it, We'll still have great 0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:11.800 guest on. But I was trying to think when I 0:21:11.840 --> 0:21:14.520 didn't go to a super Bowl, and it might have 0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:21.040 been the Bengals and the forty nine ers in Miami 0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:25.479 when Joe Montana hit John Taylor for the win. I 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:29.520 was supposed to go. I was at CNN and I 0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:32.679 was going to go. Had I resigned with CNN to 0:21:32.760 --> 0:21:37.160 stay there, and I decided to leave and they let 0:21:37.200 --> 0:21:40.119 me go out of my contract early. So I was 0:21:40.200 --> 0:21:43.640 in between jobs with CNN and ESPN. Then I got 0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:46.359 to ESPN and I think that was the last Super 0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:48.919 Bowl that I missed. Yeah, Paul, do you remember the 0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:52.000 first Super Bowl that you watched on the field sidelines 0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:54.439 behind where you were working it or not working on 0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:59.480 the field? Thought when you're giving out the trophy or 0:21:59.440 --> 0:22:01.920 wasn't before that? Yeah, they don't let you on the field, no, 0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:03.560 but like you know, you know when you've given out 0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:05.399 the trophy, you've kind of been in the end zone before. 0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:07.400 Was that what the Patriots? Was that the first time 0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:14.000 you're on the field towards the end of the game. Um, well, Tampa. 0:22:14.160 --> 0:22:16.480 I think was my first Super Bowl that I handed 0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:20.520 out the trophy. That was Steelers Cardinals. I'm trying to 0:22:20.520 --> 0:22:23.960 think if I was on on the field for any 0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:27.240 because you have to be on the field. They they 0:22:27.359 --> 0:22:30.080
