1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. It's our two on this Tuesday, Dan and

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: the Dane's Stan Patrick Show, Big Day, Big Night, The

4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: Big Day. The Big Ten is going to have another

5
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,639
Speaker 1: meeting with its presidents in about thirty minutes from now,

6
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: and I'm guessing they're either voting on canceling the season

7
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: or they would be voting on postponing it until the spring.

8
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: That's what I'm being told. Yesterday. It was chaos at

9
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: this time and it's still in a state of flux.

10
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: We're not quite sure what's going on with the PAC twelve.

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: I think the PAC twelve is waiting for the Big Ten.

12
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: We had Greg Sankey on the SEC Commissioner, and I

13
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: get the feeling that he is as confident as the

14
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: commissioner of the NFL. He thinks they're going to be

15
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 1: playing football. And of all the commissioners we reached out

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: to the Power five, he's the one that joined us.

17
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: All the other conferences they're commissioners we did reach out to,

18
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: and they all felt like this is still fluid. They're

19
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: not quite sure what is going to go on, which

20
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 1: I respect that Greg Sankey and the SEC. It's full

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: speed ahead. They're planning on playing football in third week

48
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,800

Speaker 1: show about the Sports Emmy's, Like you know what I'm saying.

50

54
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: Can we submit our Emmy viewing show for the Emmy's

55
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: next year? That's what I mean. M Are we going

56
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: to win an Emmy for Best Show about the Emmys?

57
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 1: Is that even a category? I don't know if there's

58
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: a category specialty programming something well, digital series. There are

59
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: a few categories where I go, wait, they're giving out

60
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: an Emmy for that? Come on, sound editing and the

61
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: winner is the Dan Patrick Show. Yeah? Yeah, yeah we did.

62
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: I'll tell you I don't care what category it is.

63
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: I'll take it. Ye yes, let's say anything critical the

64
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: Emmy's right now, because you never know. I mean, there

65
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: was that the votes are in. There was you know,

66
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: some when a Rod may or may not have read

67
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: MLB Tonight that year two years ago. Yeah, I was

68
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: a little suspicious that a Rod was up there, and

69
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: a Rod and I don't have the best relationship. We

70
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: have no relationship. And of all the people who would

71
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: be announcing who win the Sports Emmy, a Rod mentioned

72
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: has the announcement and it happens to be MLB Tonight.

73
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: I didn't get see the envelope. It could have been

74
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: a lawall n type situation there. I don't know that

75
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: for a fact. I am going to try to get

76
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: a source working on that. But I did not see

77
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: the envelope. And I think that they should now show

78
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: the losers the envelope just so we can get, you know,

79
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: a true confirmation that we lose. But tonight, and I

80
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: think we're the fourth to last award. God, I'd rather

81
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: pull that band aid off and just get it over with. Yea.

82
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: So it's like over an hour we're gonna be waiting

83
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: to find out if we lost. I don't know, I

84
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: feel like we got a lot of momentum right now.

85
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 1: The tides are really with us. I'm feeling pretty good.

86
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: Who wants to do a wheel of Punishment? Does it

87
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: happen tonight? On the it? Well, I'm open to it.

88
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: I'm open to it. Okay, how about we do something

89
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: though that's just kind of fun, like a fun wheel

90
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: of punishment to punishment, wheel of funishment? Who thinks we're

91
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:20,520

Speaker 1: I actually we do one in five, we do. I

94
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: feel like that's kind of how these work. No, yeah,

95
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's our time if not now when,

96
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. I don't know. But

97
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: someone came up with that phrase for yeah, I know,

98
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: So that's tonight if you want to watch YouTube dot

99
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: com slash the Dan Patrick Show. But I would do

100
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: a wheel of funishment because I don't think we're going

101
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: to win, And I've said that before the last two years.

102
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 1: I didn't think we were going to win. I was

103
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: thrilled that we got nominated and still am. What's an honor?

104
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: It is an honor to be nominated. It's a hell

105
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: of an honor to win, though. I'll tell you when

106
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: somebody goes, hey, it's nice to be nominated to go damn.

107
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: Does it feel good to win though? Yeah, I McLevin.

108
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: I mean the shows are up against our amazing all

109
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: time show. Yeah, yeah, yes, they're great. Yeah, but that's

110
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: what I want. I want us to win where they go, wow,

111
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: you guys beat out everybody. Everybody, Yeah, every single one,

112
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 1: every good show we beat out. Yeah, Todd what it

113
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: makes the most sense to win this year? And Paul

114
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: he said this a while back, of all the years,

115
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: the one year that it's virtual and we don't all

116
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: it's pomp and circumstance and everyone's together in one room

117
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: and all the stuff that comes with that, that this

118
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: is the one we'd win where you're just kind of

119
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: sitting in our Milford studios, our little group. I agree.

120
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: That's the only reason why I think we might win

121
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: is because there's no open bar. We don't get to

122
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 1: go there be in person. It's going to be via

123
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: zoom and I get thirty seconds to sum everything up

124
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: if we win. Yes, yeah, you don't get the victory latter. No,

125
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: you know, there's nothing better than to have the after

126
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: party when everybody is bringing their emmy's in and they

127
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: PLoP them down on the table and it and it

128
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: sounds it's like boom, and that's how they announce their arrival. Meanwhile,

129
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,720

Speaker 1: haven't had a returning two time championship game quarterback it's

154
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: ever really, I don't know. People get tired of this.

155
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: They like to move on somebody else in there, although

156
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: DeVos Sweeney's done a unbelieable job there. Yeah, mclub. What

157
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: do you think of all the NFL people saying, well,

158
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 1: if there's no college football season, how will we know

159
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: who the next Joe Burrow is? What's true? You won't

160
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: know Joe said that. I mean, we won't know who

161
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: the next Kyler Murray is. When you start to think

162
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: about Dwayne Haskins, there there's a lot of these quarterbacks

163
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: where if they didn't have that last year in college football.

164
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Joe Burrow is going to be a fifth

165
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: round draft pick, you know, and then you go number

166
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: one overall. Kyler Murray, he was playing baseball then had

167
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: an unbelievable season. Jalen Hurts made transferred, went to Oklahoma,

168
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: ended up being won a second round draft pick. So

169
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 1: there's a lot of players, and these are just the quarterbacks.

170
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: And that's the toughest position to handicap. And even if

171
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: they have that extra year, you still don't know. You're

172
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: not quite sure what you're getting there. NBA is coming

173
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: down to this. It's Memphis, the eighth seed. They got

174
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,959
Speaker 1: Boston in Milwaukee. Portland's a half game back. They got

175
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: Dallas in Brooklyn, the Sons who were unbelievable. They're one

176
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: game back. They got Philly in Dallas. San Antonio is

177
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: one game back. They got Houston, and they've got Utah Phoenix.

178
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: Suns have won six in a row. The last five

179
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 1: of them come against teams that are at least ten

180
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: games over five hundred. They still have the Sixers that's today,

181
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: So they would be the first team in NBA history

182
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: to beat a team that's ten or more games over

183
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: five hundred in six consecutive games. Start of the day,

184
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: start of the day, staut of the day, start of

185
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: the day, day day, A little twitterle there for you.

186
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: Let me see what else do I have here? Got

187
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: our poll question? I got a couple other stats of

188
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: the day. Oh, here's something for you. Kyle Kuzma hit

189
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: a game winner last night and people were going crazy.

190
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: Kyle Kuzma hits a three to win the game. Now,

191
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: Ron was a decoy. Anthony Davis got the ball, they

192
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: did a little curl, he came out hit the three,

193
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: and they ended up winning it on the three. Now

194
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: here's my problem with how we react to this. If

195
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: I said, as Kyle Kuzma is taking the curl and

196
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: the past from Anthony Davis and the ball is up

197
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: in the air, is that a good play call? And

198
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: I'd love to know the percentages because we saw the

199
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: results and we go, oh, what an unbelievable play And

200
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: it was, but it was the result because you know what,

201
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: if this is a playoff game and Kyle Kuzma takes

202
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: that shot and missus Lebron James is getting ripped today,

203
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: Oh Lebron fraid to shoot big moment. But that's how

204
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: it works with Lebron and the Lakers. Kuzma hit an

205
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 1: open shot, tough shot because he had to shoot it

206
00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: over Bull Bull who's seven two, But he may a

207
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: great shot, and they do need Kuzma to step up

208
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: and be a consistent scorer. Anthony Davis is still the

209
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 1: big question mark for me because he can be really

210
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: good and then he can be really average. When he's

211
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 1: really good, you're not going to beat him because I

212
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,839
Speaker 1: expect Lebron to step up and be even greater in

213
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: the postseason. But that shot last night, as soon as

214
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: it left his hand, if you would have said now

215
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 1: you can vote, you stop the action. Is this a

216
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: good play? I'm going to guess less than fifty percent

217
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: would be saying yeah, that was a great play because

218
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: it's Kuzma taking the shot in a big spot. Do

219
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: you want Anthony Davis taking that shot? You want Lebron

220
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 1: James taking that shot. But Kyle Kuzma hit the shot

221
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 1: last night. Sun Sixers coming up later on tonight, Blazers

222
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: in the MAVs, which should be spicy as well. I

223
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: saw were major League Baseball is looking at a postseason

224
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: bubble and Jeff Passon our friend from the Mothership had

225
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: some details. This was first reported by the La Times.

226
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: Because of baseball's expansion to sixteen playoff teams, the league

227
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: would need at least three cities three hubs to complete

228
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: a wildcard round before shrinking to a two hub city

229
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: format for the divisional series, So the League Championship Series

230
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: the World Series could be held at one or two stadiums.

231
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: Here are some of the suggestions for the bubble with

232
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. Let's say you hold three games in

233
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 1: one day at the same stadium. Now that's troublesome logistically,

234
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: and the West Coast you're gonna have to start a

235
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: game before noon. Are you going to get pregame practice

236
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: disinfecting clubhouses between games? So there's a lot of those

237
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 1: things to consider. Let's say you had New York with

238
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 1: the Mets and Yankees their stadiums, and you couple them

239
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: with the Phillies, Baltimore and or Washington for the East

240
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: Coast hub stadiums in Chicago along with Milwaukee Midwest hub,

241
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 1: and then you could have Los Angeles where you could

242
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 1: have the Dodgers, the Angels, the Padres, you know, maybe

243
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: even throw in San Francisco. But that is what is

244
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: being discussed right now. I think the more important issue

245
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: right now is how do you punish these players from

246
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Indians who went out on the town in

247
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: Chicago and got sent home, Because now you've your entire

248
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: team is at risk because of these two pitchers. Police

249
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: sack in Clevenger. And this is after the Marlins and

250
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: after the Cardinals. And I don't know what the commissioner

251
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: can do, but you know when he threatens a finer suspension, no, no,

252
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: you just find or you suspend because you're not getting

253
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: anybody's attention right now. And that's what happened in this situation. Hey,

254
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: what's the big deal? We can go out, but then

255
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: the you have these players. One of the players was

256
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: around the other his other teammates, Clevenger. But this is

257
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: why we're trying to do a bubble. At least Major

258
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: League Baseball is trying to do a bubble. I don't

259
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: know if it's possible, but you know, hearing that story

260
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: and then you put your entire season at risk, and

261
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: I don't Baseball has got a real problem here with

262
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: how many games do you have to play to get

263
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: into the postseason? Because the Cardinals haven't played any Marlins

264
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: and to make up those games. And now now you're

265
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: going to say to those teams that were scheduled to

266
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: play you and did everything right, now you're going to

267
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 1: tax them as well and as and I hate being

268
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: correct on this, but we're really really testing these pitching staffs.

269
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of injuries, and you know this rush

270
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: back and the pitchers were not ready, and you've seen

271
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: quite a few of these pitchers go down with injuries. Yeah. Po,

272
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: the Miami Marlins have only played ten games, but they're

273
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: seven and three. They're leading the East right now. That

274
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: would help them with seating, they'd help them with the playoffs.

275
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: Is that fair? No? No, because they didn't do things right.

276
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't let them benefit from this. But

277
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: that's a real problem. How many games is enough to

278
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: qualify because you're gonna have a winning percentage that's going

279
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: to be different than somebody who plays fifty four games

280
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: and somebody else is going to play forty two. I

281
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: don't know how they get around this, but they do

282
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: have an issue here. All right, we'll take a break here.

283
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: More phone calls coming up, And as I mentioned last hour,

284
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: we are moving to Peacock August twenty fourth. We're excited

285
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: be back in business with NBC. This is a great

286
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: move for all involved because more people are able to

287
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: get peacockage free. I made sure that when we were

288
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: discussing this possibility, I said, if it's not free, I'm

289
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: going to stay on YouTube, but we're going to be

290
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: at peak coming up August twenty fourth. We'll give you

291
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: the details of how you can find us there. And

292
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,439
Speaker 1: once again, this is the future, in my opinion, of

293
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 1: what's going on in this business and to be able

294
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: to have our show on Peacock. Very very excited about them.

295
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,920

Speaker 1: sure we've seen a whole sports scramble as much as

306
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: we have with college football this week, and we're only Tuesday.

307
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 1: News started leaking out about major conferences might cancel fall sports,

308
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: and then chaos broke out yesterday. Players and coaches chimed in.

309
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to play, players, coaches, athletic directors, they want

310
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 1: to play. It's the presidents who are being very cautious,

311
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: and some schools reportedly talked about jumping to different conferences. Legally,

312
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: I don't think that's possible. I know Scott Frost and Nebraska,

313
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 1: and I think we have some sound from Scott Frost.

314
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: He's the Nebraska head coach where he had this to

315
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: say about maybe playing elsewhere. We want to play a

316
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 1: Big Ten schedule. I hope that's what happens. Our university

317
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: is committed to playing no matter what, no matter what

318
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: that looks like and how that looks. We want to

319
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 1: play no matter who it is or where it is.

320
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: So we'll see how those chips fall. We certainly hope

321
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,160
Speaker 1: it's in the Big Ten. If it isn't, I think

322
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: we're prepared to look for other options. I don't think

323
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 1: they can play elsewhere. And when we had Greg Sanky

324
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 1: I'm the commissioner of the SEC. I said, would you

325
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: be willing? Are you open to bringing in schools for

326
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: one year to the SEC? And he basically said, legally, no,

327
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: you can't do that. This is what the commissioner had

328
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: to say for one year only in the SEC. There

329
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: probably any number of legal contractual media. I could just

330
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: go down a list of reasons that that's not quite practical,

331
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: so that that will be my answer and avoiding any

332
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: torches interference claims on the Damn Patrick Show on Tuesday morning.

333
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 1: But if it's Ohio State, you know, we we've had

334
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 1: some time. I'm just joking. I'm just I was gonna

335
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,719
Speaker 1: go down there. We've had some experience in like semi

336
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: finals and national champion So if we can be optimistic,

337
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: maybe that's the place. Oh the look on his face

338
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: when I said, well, Ohio State, and then it's like,

339
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: what I'm going to be accused of tampering? Here a

340
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: week ago conferences were releasing their schedules. Six days ago,

341
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: the Big Ten was releasing its schedule. So what changed?

342
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: And we know that things can change fast during the pandemic,

343
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: and here we are a week later. Chances for the

344
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: football season are pretty slim, and I don't know what's

345
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: going to happen the rest of the week. I know

346
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 1: that the Big ten presidents are scheduled to have another vote,

347
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: maybe a final vote, in about five minutes from now,

348
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 1: But it's moving fast, and I don't know if anybody

349
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: has the right answers yet. And I just factor this in.

350
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: This is from Darren Ravelle and he tweets PAC twelve

351
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: gets quote a sobering medical perspective from a group of

352
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 1: PAC twelve doctors. So that's from Pete Thamil. Then you know,

353
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: we just had Greg Sankey on he's the commissioner of

354
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: the SEC and he said the following our medical advisory

355
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: group said yes, we can continue to go forward. So

356
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 1: what is their advisory board seeing or not seeing? And

357
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: what's the PAC twelve seeing or not seeing? And you know,

358
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: we think the Big five is a cohesive unit and

359
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: it's not because this is about money. Now, I know,

360
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: protecting your players. You don't want liability, you don't want lawsuits,

361
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: all of that, We understand that, but there's so much

362
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: money at stake. How can you pull this off? That's

363
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: why what I was told two hours ago, a little

364
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 1: bit maybe two and a half hours ago that the

365
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: Big Ten was going to try to postpone the start

366
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: of the season or they were going to postpone it

367
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: to spring. I can't see it happening in the spring.

368
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: Maybe they postpone. I don't know what you're going to

369
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 1: get out of this, but what happened, and my source

370
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: said this to me after yesterday's show, you actually help

371
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: mobilize college football because the Big Ten and the Pac

372
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: twelve we're going to make this announcement today and it

373
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,160
Speaker 1: was going to surprise people. And the fact I got

374
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: that information on Monday, all of a sudden, the president

375
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 1: started getting all of this feedback and that's why the

376
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: Big Ten has had having this emergency meeting today and

377
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 1: they're going to have another vote. And they did have

378
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: a vote on Sunday. They voted twelve to two to

379
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: not play football, with Nebraska and Iowa the two that

380
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: said they wanted to play football. Now you have another

381
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: vote this morning whether or not they're going to be

382
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: able to play or not Pac twelve. I don't see

383
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: the Pac twelve playing, But as my source reiterated to

384
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: me yesterday, the PAC twelve does not want to be

385
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 1: the first conference to shut it down. I don't think

386
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: the ACC is going to SEC's not going to and

387
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: then the Big twelve is still in a state of

388
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: flux because I think you have two hardliners, Texas and

389
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: Oklahoma want to play football. I don't know that the

390
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: other schools in the Big twelve want to play football. Yeah,

391
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: this is gonna sound weird, but I think that Oklahoma's

392
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: plan may have been the best plan to play college football.

393
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: I'm going to move up the game to August thirty

394
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: first or whatever it was, and start playing, and once

395
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: the games are started, they carry on. I think actually

396
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: the conferences, like the SEC and others, bumping it back

397
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: to late September is going to make it worse, not better.

398
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: First of all, medically, who knows that things will get better,

399
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 1: But more so if they're on the island of them

400
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: on their own, not playing when no one else is,

401
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: that criticism will pile up over the next six weeks. Well,

402
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: I ask Greg Sanky that the commissioner in the SEC,

403
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: are you willing to go alone? And I don't think

404
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 1: they are. I think they're hoping that the ACC in

405
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: Big twelve and or Big twelve is going to play.

406
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: But if you're the only conference playing well. You know

407
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: your schools and your fan base are going to love that.

408
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of you know, blowback you're

409
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: going to get because I even ask the commissioner. You know,

410
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: people are going to look at this and say, do

411
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 1: you care as much about your student athletes as the

412
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: Pac twelve does or the Big ten does? And he says,

413
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: I know, I know I'm going to get that. But

414
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 1: he said, we're taking and I do believe these athletes

415
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 1: being tested, being monitored, they are safer on these campuses.

416
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: I just don't know if they're safe playing foot ball

417
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: against another team that comes in, or you travel, or

418
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: when you socialize, because you will socialize on a campus

419
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,719
Speaker 1: and then you know that's where the danger starts to

420
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: seep in. Yeah, time, I don't know how you don't

421
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: err on the side of question though, in the middle

422
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: of a pandemic. I want college football is as much

423
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: as the next person. But if you have one set

424
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: of doctors saying it's too dangerous to play and another

425
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: set the sec saying yeah, you can go forward, it's like,

426
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: how do you like? That doesn't equate to me? If

427
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: if there's even any doctor or group that says that

428
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: it's too dangerous to play in the middle of a pandemic.

429
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 1: I don't know how you can continue, certainly not on time,

430
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 1: which is a month from now. It's all about money.

431
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: There's billions of dollars in steak and plus you have doctors.

432
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: You can you might find a doctor that you know

433
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: he has the opinion that you have. You know, the

434
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,360
Speaker 1: PAC twelve apparently didn't have that, where they had doctors

435
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: who looked at this and said that this is not possible,

436
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: whereas the SEC said it is possible. I'd love to

437
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,919
Speaker 1: get the PAC twelve doctor to look at the SEC

438
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: and then vice versa if the SEC looked at the

439
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 1: PAC twelve. But travel is an issue, the amount of

440
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: money that you're going to spend for testing. That's why

441
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: some of these other smaller conferences weren't able to pull

442
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: this off. They didn't have the money. Yeah, poon and

443
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 1: to play Devil's advocate. If this goes the other way,

444
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 1: where the SEC and ACC are on an island and

445
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: they play college football and they somehow play a clean

446
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: college football season, where the health measures they enact allow

447
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: them to play a game somewhat cleanly and get through

448
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: a season and play a title serious and they're on

449
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,159
Speaker 1: an island. Imagine all the other conferences will look at

450
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: them and say, they actually pulled it off and we

451
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: sat there on the sidelines. It'll further distance the SEC

452
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: in the perception of college football. Yeah, that's very unlikely,

453
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: but it's a possibility. Maybe depends on if you have

454
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 1: another conference or two that wants to be a part

455
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: of this. But I don't. I don't see the Pac

456
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 1: twelve doing this. And now we're going to find out

457
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: if the Big Ten postpone or delay they move it

458
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: to the spring. Justin in Virginia, Hi, justin. What do

459
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: you have for me today? Hey? Dan? How's it going? So?

460
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: Kind of my question about these conferences. I know they're

461
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 1: still kind of on the fence or whatever, but aside

462
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:15,360
Speaker 1: from all the testing and whatnot, why wouldn't these conferences

463
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: in one season alone, why wouldn't they try to create

464
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: some sort of regionalized conferences, you know, like, for instance,

465
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. They've got Georgia across the state, but right

466
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: now they're still having to travel up and down the

467
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: East coast, So why wouldn't these conferences try to put

468
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: together some sort of regionalized conferences for this season alone

469
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: to cut down on justin you can't do that in

470
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 1: four weeks. This should have been worked on back in

471
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: March or April. We just didn't know where this was

472
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: headed and we haven't been through this before. But you

473
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: can't go, hey, can you kind of get a hub

474
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: city here and play? Yeah, if you're back in March

475
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 1: or April and you know that we're still going to

476
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 1: be knee deep in this pandemic, then maybe you could

477
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: come up with a alternative plan. You know, the NBA

478
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 1: was able to do it. Baseball is going to try

479
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: to do it for the postseason. Yeah. See, if I'm

480
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: not mistaken, The big fear for the football season back

481
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: then was the second wave coming when we've never really

482
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 1: gotten out of the first wave, but it was there, Well,

483
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a second wave and that's gonna mess

484
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: up fall sport. Yeah, and they were talking about can

485
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: you get the football season in earlier before the second

486
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: wave hits. We don't even know if there's going to

487
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: be a second wave. But Oklahoma was moving up, you know,

488
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 1: the start date for their season, and it felt like, hey,

489
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: let's see if we can get in as many games

490
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: as possible here Less in Indiana, joins us. Hi Lass,

491
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 1: what do you have for me? Hi Dan, good morning.

492
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 1: I hope you win the award tonight. I think you're

493
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: very deserving. Thank you, Less, thank you. I want to

494
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: talk about the Nebraska situation you mentioned at the top

495
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: of the show. But when I heard Scott Frost say

496
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: we'll go outside the conference if we have to to play,

497
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: what good is being in the conference? And I really

498
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: feel like Jim Delaney, you know, expanded the the Big Ten.

499
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:16,479
Speaker 1: And I understand the reason for Rutgers in Maryland to

500
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 1: get their lucrative TV markets. I'm not sure that that's

501
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: really college country and anyone who cares that much, but

502
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: certainly the Omaha TV market isn't that important. And I

503
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: say nuts to Nebraska. If they have that attitude, I'm

504
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 1: not sure they fit academically either, so I would I

505
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: thought that was a bad statement from Frost, and I

506
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: don't know if he had the support of his ad

507
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: and president to say that. But if they don't want

508
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: to be in the Big Ten, I think there are

509
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: plenty of other institutions that would be Yeah. I said

510
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: that from the beginning with Nebraska. Look, Scott Frost is

511
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: a former quarterback now the head coach. He's a competitor.

512
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: You want to say to your fan base, Hey, we're

513
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 1: doing everything we can. They won't let us play, But

514
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: you can't go rogue here because the Big Ten still

515
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: owns Nebraska's rights. If they like, you can't have a

516
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: TV deal. Big Ten owns that. And if I'm the

517
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: Big Ten and Nebraska says, hey, we're gonna go play

518
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: someplace else, Okay, see you. But this isn't Tom Osborne's

519
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: Nebraska Huskers. People in America don't care. Whence the last

520
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: time you cared about a Nebraska football team, Eric Eric Crouch,

521
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 1: I got I mean, I'm just being honest. You had

522
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: a dynasty there. But it's like the Big Ten did

523
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: Nebraska favor to bring him in, And now you're gonna say, hey,

524
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna go play someplace else. I don't think you can.

525
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: I mean, good luck trying to find schools that are

526
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: going to play you here. Yeah, McLevin, I had a poke,

527
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 1: I said, who belongs in the Big Ten? Less Nebraska

528
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: or rut curse kind of it ends of the country. Well,

529
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,959
Speaker 1: if Nebraska was formidable, like they once were, then they

530
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: would fit in because it's about football in the Big Ten.

531
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: I mean Rutgers. You know, this is where you have

532
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: these presidents and chancellors and they go, you know, if

533
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: we get Rutgers, we'll get the New York market. The

534
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: New York market doesn't care about college football and bad

535
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: college football at down. It's not like they're going, Wow,

536
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: we're going to get the New York Times covering Ohio State.

537
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: I'd rather have North Dakota State than I would Rutgers. Yes,

538
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: we put For me, it's a history thing. I grew

539
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: up with Texas A and M in Nebraska in what

540
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: is now the Big Twelve, and I can never get

541
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 1: that out of my mind. Well, Maryland's in there as well.

542
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: It's just they're an ACC team, right, yes, yeah, yeah, point.

543
00:30:55,520 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: But Rutgers makes Maryland look like Oklahoma the eighties. I

544
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: mean Maryland looks like uh, you know, I don't know, Bryant,

545
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: Bud Wilkerson's, Bud Wilkinson's Oklahoma Sooner. Right, you got Rutgers around,

546
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: You're you're awesome? Oh yeah? Yes? Is this this all

547
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: excuse to provide a big conference game in noon on Saturday? Yes, yeah.

548
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,719
Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you have Rutgers so you can

549
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: have a game at noon. If they could, if they

550
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: could have Rutgers play at nine am, they would six

551
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: am Pacific. I have nothing personal against Rutgers, but it's

552
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: so easy to make the jokes because I was at

553
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 1: CNN in the early eighties and did a story on

554
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: the resurgence of Rutgers football. It's like, every six or

555
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 1: seven years, we're gonna talk about Rutgers football coming back. Hey,

556
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: there's see, Hey, Rutgers got something going on here. Yeah. McLevin.

557
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: If you were going to create a conference with schools

558
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 1: that are awesome at basketball, never get football, right, who

559
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: would you put in there? Like? Uh, like Indiana, Kentucky,

560
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: those guys would that be? That'd be a great conference

561
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: that our football Well, you know what Indiana's football is.

562
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, Indiana football is getting better. It's it's

563
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: actually respectable. Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, duke make them. North

564
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: Carolina always has like, you know, two or three first

565
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: round draft picks when it comes to football, and you'll go,

566
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: where were they when I watched North Carolina play. I

567
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: can watch North Carolina play against Clemson and they nearly

568
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: pulled off that upset? Was that last year the year before,

569
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: And you're going, yeah, but this is North Carolina. They're

570
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: not any good. Yea. If all of Indiana's football games

571
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: were three quarters, they'd be twelve and all. They always

572
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: are winning at halftime. I've made a couple of bucks

573
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: on them. Yeah. See, I like every couple of years

574
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: there's a story about, like Rutgers renovating their stadium, added

575
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: thirty thousand seats. It's like, why not thirty thousand fans,

576
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: thirty thousand just the seats, just the seats, Like why

577
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: are you doing that? Look at that thirty thousand seats? Big?

578
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: This places is anybody does anybody sitting there? Seats rocking?

579
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: But one of these days, one of these days. Yeah, yeah,

580
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: we are poking the bear, getting that Rutgers football fan

581
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: base mad at us. You do not want a part

582
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: of them? Yeah, KURTA and Florida joins USI Kurt, what

583
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: do you have for me to dow? Are you great?

584
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: First time taller, long time listener? If I can find

585
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: you out of the dial, Hey, listen, it's ten thirty tenty.

586
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: You haven't mentioned anything about fans. I mean, what the fans,

587
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: How are they included in any of this. I don't

588
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: think they are. We're just trying to get football. We're

589
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 1: trying to get football players in a stadium fans. I

590
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: can't see that happening now. I know we've seen this

591
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: with NASCAR, but I still think that these presidents and

592
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 1: athletic directors and coaches have enough to worry about with

593
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 1: just putting a product on the field. Now. I don't

594
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: think you can prevent fans from tailgating at a stadium,

595
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: but if you know campus property, I don't know if

596
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: you can. But I don't think we're going to be

597
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 1: looking at fans in the stands. I think that's the

598
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: least of their worries right now, given where we are

599
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: with the state of flux and the chaos from yesterday

600
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: and potential chaos today. I don't think we're looking at fans.

601
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: And if you can do it in a way the

602
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 1: way NASCAR did it at Bristol, then maybe you can

603
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: get twenty thousand fans in there fifteen thousand fans. But

604
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: they're going to be safety protocols there that you're going

605
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 1: to have to adhere to. You know, how long do

606
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: you wear your mask if you get up from your seat,

607
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: do you have to wear your mask? Like you go

608
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 1: to a restaurant in New York City and you wear

609
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 1: your mask in New York you get to the restaurant

610
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: and then you can take off your mask. I don't

611
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: know if you can do that with college football, where

612
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: wear the mask, sit down, enjoy the game, You get up,

613
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: go get something to eat, use the restroom, put your

614
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 1: masks back on. Maybe maybe that's a possibility here. I

615
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: would be happy if we just had football. I'm not

616
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: going to be greedy and say I'd love to go

617
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: see a West Point game this year, which I usually

618
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 1: go once a year. I'd love to go South Bend

619
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: and see a Notre Dame get but I don't think

620
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: that that's going to happen. We'll take a break back

Speaker 1: Dan Patrick Show. The past four seasons, Rutgers has a

628
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 1: total of nine wins football. I got people saying, why

629
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 1: are you piling on Rutgers. I don't know, because it's fun.

630
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 1: Come on, it's a tradition unlike any other make fun

631
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: of Rutgers football. By the way, Tuesday's playoff clinching elimination

632
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,280
Speaker 1: scenarios in the NBA, Memphis clinches a play in game

633
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: with a win or losses by Phoenix and San Antonio.

634
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: Portland clinches a playing game with a win and losses

635
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: by Phoenix and San Antonio. Phoenix is eliminated with a

636
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 1: loss and a Portland win. San Antonio eliminated what they

637
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: lost any win by either Portland or Phoenix. You know,

638
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't understand those scenarios, but I felt

639
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 1: like I was obligated, professionally obligated. I just read it

640
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: to you, and I have no idea what that means

641
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 1: other than I don't think we know Zion's not playing

642
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. He's not in the bubble anymore. Right. Yeah. See,

643
00:36:58,520 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: that's the kind of thing that you could read out

644
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: and act like you know what it is like. If

645
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,880
Speaker 1: you don't get it, that's on you, and then Portland

646
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 1: gets you in if they do the information. Part of

647
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: doing TV is looking confident when you're doing TV, even

648
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: though there are a lot of times when you go,

649
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,839
Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'm talking about up here.

650
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: We're gonna keep an eye on that. That's my favorite.

651
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: We'll keep an eye on that. Yes, for two. But

652
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: it's confusing as that is. When you get through these

653
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,400
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks of the NFL season, it's like

654
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 1: ten times when they go through those scenarios. But you

655
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: have to do it. When I did Football Night in America,

656
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: you go, I got to do all of these. If

657
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 1: they win, they lose, if they win the point differential, conference, win,

658
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 1: you know, win total and ties throwing a tie there.

659
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: Y ask mclovin, who do we want to play the Lakers?

660
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: It's got to be the Blazers, right, is there? Or

661
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: is the Son's a spicy alternative? Or Memphis? Not the

662
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: non up Memphis because you don't have jarn Jackson Junior

663
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: the third So I don't it's as much as they

664
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: should have been in the playoffs to begin with. But

665
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 1: if you're if you say you want the Lakers to lose,

666
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: then you probably want Portland in there. Phoenix is fun

667
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that we're sleeping on the Dallas Mavericks.

668
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: From the standpoint of boy, Portland's gonna be a tough

669
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: out If the MAVs are the seventh team, seventh seed,

670
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: are they going to be a tough out for the Clippers?

671
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna guess probably so. But nobody talks about

672
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 1: the MAVs being a tough out for the Clippers here. Yeah, mclovin,

673
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: I've been watching a lot of bubble. Does it seem

674
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: to you guys at Denver and Utah play three times

675
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 1: a day? Aren't they always on the play everybody? They

676
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: play in the afternoon? Is that why? I think? And

677
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: then their highlights get shown later on on the six

678
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,360
Speaker 1: o'clock Sports Center and then later on during the other games,

679
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: and then so you're seeing their highlights. I think, are

680
00:38:55,520 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: they a bit interchangeable or is it me? Denver and Utah?

681
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 1: Denver's more talented, and Denver might be a team they

682
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: might be on. I thought they were going to be

683
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: on the cusps this season, and even last year. I

684
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: thought that they could be a team that could win

685
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 1: the West. But you know, they got bull ball and

686
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 1: Michael Porter Junior, the third if you add them in

687
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 1: there with you know, the joker and you know they

688
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,760
Speaker 1: have a good they have a good nucleus there. Murray,

689
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 1: Jamal Murray, Ya mclev Would you have ever uttered that

690
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 1: set about to go? They have bull Ball and Michael

691
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: Porter in February. No, No, I would not. I would not.

692
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: Chris and Missouri joints us. Good morning, Chris, what do

693
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: you have for me? Good morning? Good morning? Hey. You

694
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: posed a question about how who would have thought Kuslas

695
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 1: shot was a good shot? You know when it left

696
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: his hands. Yeah, and I'm not a Lakers fan or apologist,

697
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: but but I feel like the Lakers fans and apologists

698
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 1: would maybe argue that, you know, it was a brilliant shot.

699
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 1: It gives him Jompan Maker miss, it gives him confidence

700
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: going into postseason play, and that's that's kind of Lebron's demo,

701
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 1: isn't it. And it's a fair point, Chris. It's a

702
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: great point that you make that the Lakers would single

703
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 1: out Kuzma because I have said for the last couple

704
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: of weeks, I got to put him in the starting

705
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,239
Speaker 1: lineup here because the Lakers get behind early and they

706
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 1: do have some good bench players they have, you know,

707
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: rotation there that is pretty good, pretty formidable. But I

708
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: Kuzma's got to be the guy that I can count

709
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: on with Lebron in a d and the fact that

710
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: you're going to design a play for him, that's it's

711
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 1: a great regular season play. I don't know if that

712
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: play is designed is called for in the postseason. I

713
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 1: don't know if that that would be the case. But

714
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 1: Kuzma hit it, but we do love the result where

715
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 1: we go and that's a great play. If this is

716
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 1: the postseason, they design that play and Kuzma takes it

717
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 1: and he misses, you know who gets the blame, Lebron,

718
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: not Vogel, not Kuzma. Lebron does oh didn't take the

719
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 1: big shot. It's like, if you know Michael Jordan's two

720
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,919
Speaker 1: of his greatest moments were when he passed to Steve

721
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,839
Speaker 1: Kerr who hit a foul line jumper and won a game,

722
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: and when they kicked it out to John Paxson and

723
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: he had a shot. You know why they're great moments

724
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: because they made those shots. If Steve Kerr misses the

725
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 1: shot at the foul line, oh what Michael get criticized

726
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: and the answer is no, John Paxon doesn't hit that

727
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: shot against Phoenix, is Michael going to get criticized? No, no,

728
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 1: but Lebron if he takes it, misses, he gets criticized.

729
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,239
Speaker 1: If he doesn't take it, he's gonna get criticized. All right,

730
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: more phone calls coming up, big night here for the Emmys,

731
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: as you can tune in and watch us watch the

732
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 1: Sports Emmys. Now, there's some other things that'll be going on.

733
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: We were trying to get a house band. We couldn't

734
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: get one. We tried to get some celebrities even to

735
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,320
Speaker 1: zoom in, and we couldn't get that. I think Kevin

736
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: Frasier from Entertainment tonight is actually going to help us

737
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 1: a little bit and he may join us just to

738
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 1: talk about the magnitude of us maybe finally winning the

739
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: Sports Emmy. Final hour coming up, we'll talk to the

740
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: PJA champ, Colin Morikawa
