Speaker 3: could do the show from home. Oh all of the

18

Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was like nineteen years ahead of

20
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 2: my time with the ESPN. It's like, can I do

21
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: the show from my home when I'm not doing Sports Center? No,

22
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 2: that's President setting.

23
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 3: That's Fridays. What's the big deal?

24
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 2: I know. And then when they said no, No, it's

25
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: good for morale that when you're in studio. Oh my god.

26
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 2: And then I was always like, yeah, mister morale is here.

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: Everybody every day we saw you.

28
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 4: Hey, hey, I'm just here raising morale.

29
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: I know. Oh my god. Why did they say that?

30
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 5: I know you're a party in a box back then.

31
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 2: No, Todd, you didn't have to come with me to

32
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 2: the show.

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 5: You know what, what is it?

34
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 6: Why coun't you just take a little shot that I

35
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 6: made and we could just leave it at that. You

36
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 6: have to come back with something very defensive.

37
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: You have to come back with something that was a

38
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: good line by me, and then we just leave it.

39
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 2: I think you were being truthful, and so was I. Yeah,

40
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: that's all it was. Oh, you can't being truthful. It's truthful.

41
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 7: You could be cute and truthful at the same time.

42
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: There was definitely truth. That's it. Oh man, this.

43
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 6: Guy's a miserable You can just go home and do

44
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 6: the show.

45
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: No, you're right, you're right. Those last three years, I

46
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 2: was not happy. I wasn't and I felt like everybody

47
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,679
Speaker 2: had gone from Sports Center, all the people that I'd

48
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 2: work with, all the anchors, they're all doing specialty shows

49
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 2: and then I'm there and I'm like, you know when

50
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 2: you're the oldest guy and you show up at a

51
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 2: party and you're like, hey, can you buy us beer?

52
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 2: That's how I felt, And it wasn't fair to the

53
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: other anchors who were there. I just I should have

54
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: gone after my by fifteenth year there. The last three

55
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: weren't fun, and the Mothership didn't help, just because everything

56
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: was precedent setting. I remember saying, Hey, could I get

57
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 2: a closet in my office? Now it's precedent setting, and

58
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 2: my office was a mess, and I wanted to have,

59
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: you know, I could hang up my suits and ties

60
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: in there. And so I asked for another TV because

61
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: you know, we were doing all these highlight and a

62
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 2: lot of times you're doing the highlights, you haven't seen

63
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: the highlights, so you have to watch more games. And

64
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 2: I had three little monitors in my office. And what

65
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 2: I did is I went out and I stole two

66
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: of the TVs from other guy's desk and put it

67
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 2: in my office. And I think Jason Jackson and Rhys

68
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 2: Davis might I might have taken their their little monitors. Yeah.

69
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 2: I know it's good now, but I'm like, hell of it.

70
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm going to go out and get it. And then

71
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: I had, you know, one of the people who worked there, electrician,

72
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: I say, can you hook that up? And he's like yeah.

73
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,839
Speaker 2: He even said are you allowed to do this? I go, yep, yep,

74
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 2: I am yep. I got tenure here, Yes, Dodd.

75
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 6: I remember those days, especially out of Friday, when you

76
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 6: wanted to kind of do the show from home and

77
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 6: PAULI or one of us with their out of suggestion

78
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 6: where we got.

79
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 5: This trade and this happened?

80
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 6: Anyway, what am I going to do with that? But

81
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 6: they and we look at it.

82
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 2: You to the oh no, yeahs now. But it wasn't

83
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: a good show. We had the potential to make it

84
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 2: a good show. I didn't live up to my potential

85
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: to make it a good a fun show. I should say.

86
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: That's why when we started this, it was going to

87
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 2: be on my terms. It was going to be close

88
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: to my home. We were going to have a man

89
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 2: cave and we were going to have a small group

90
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: of people and we were going to have fun. And

91
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: then we ended up in my attic and I remember

92
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 2: somebody from management told a friend of mine, Hey, great

93
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: career move by Dan. He's working in his attic, and

94
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, man, I'm coming after you. I

95
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: don't know what that meant, but I was like, damn,

96
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: I will not stop until somebody says, man, you got

97
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: a great show, but I'm over it. I am. I've

98
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 2: moved on. Yes, paulm I don't.

99
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 8: Want to go a bumper sticker on you. But you know,

100
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 8: everything happens for a reason. If you didn't have those

101
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 8: rough last years and they would have acquiesced to some

102
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 8: of your requests, they asked us. They said, it would

103
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 8: be okay if Dan works a few days romework. Yes, yeah,

104
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 8: how about Monday and Friday it gets like a long weekend.

105
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 8: Everybody wins like, well, we really need him here. So

106
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 8: it wasn't like us. But you could still be there

107
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 8: doing whatever maybe and this would have all never happened.

108
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was best that I moved on. That's

109
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

110
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 8: It's like, if they would have not been hardliners, it

111
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 8: all worked out.

112
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 3: Actually, when they brought me in for that meeting, Paul

113
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 3: was talking about it, I said no, I said, actually,

114
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: I think it's a huge mistake. Chemistry would be off,

115
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 3: the show is going to suffer. And then eventually get canceled.

116
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 3: I thinked and really needs to be here.

117
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: Okay, just being honest.

118
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 3: ESPN often brought me into meetings for my thoughts on things.

119
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: That's that happened all the time, seeing the.

120
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: Mood you were in.

121
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 6: I had a picket sign and I was marching let

122
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 6: it work Wednesday through Friday from home.

123
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: For God's sakes, Are you being serious? Are you taking

124
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 2: it off?

125
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 6: I never had a picket sign, but if I thought

126
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 6: of it back then, I might have marched across the

127
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 6: park and.

128
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: Say I let him work from home. I don't blame you, man.

129
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 2: I came in especially on Fridays because I didn't see

130
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 2: my kids, and you know, then I started getting pressure

131
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 2: from my wife and then you know, it's like I tried,

132
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 2: and we even did an experiment where I said, Okay,

133
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do my show from my attic and I

134
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: don't want you to tell anybody that I'm doing it

135
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 2: from my attic. And nobody said a word. And then

136
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 2: they were like, I hear you weren't in on Friday.

137
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 2: I go, well, did you hear the show? I said,

138
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: listen to the show, and you tell me if anything changed.

139
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 2: Did it sound good? How is morale? All of these things.

140
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: But everything was precedent setting, even having a closet, and

141
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 2: they said, well, if he give you one, then we

142
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 2: got to give I go, well, then give other people.

143
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 2: I waited ten years to get an office, and I

144
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 2: was like, okay, precedent setting, Well, if I give you one,

145
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 2: we got to give it. Okay, all right, fair enough,

146
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: But once again we're all good, smooth sailing dealing with

147
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 2: new management there. They've been wonderful and very accommodating the

148
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: PR department. We love the PR department. Big shout out

149
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 2: to the ESPN PR apartment. They watch our show every day. Yes, Martin, Sorry,

150
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 2: quick question for the room.

151
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: Do you guys ever think about if you guys never

152
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: said yes to Dan when he decided to leave.

153
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 2: Well, Todd would still be there definitely, because you know,

154
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 2: there there was nobody who was doing what Todd does.

155
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 2: There were a lot of producers and assistant producers. But

156
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,560

170
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,680

174
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 2: him out in the middle of the night. It felt like,

175
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: I get you tell them we said hi.

176
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 7: I was like, oh, I didn't say I was going

177
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 7: to where specifically.

178
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 3: I was told that we all know where you're going. Uh,

179
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 3: and no one takes kindly if something about like we

180
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 3: don't look kindly on going to the enemy and if

181
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 3: you leave, you can't come back. Yeah, And I was like, okay, yeah,

182
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 3: well see you later.

183
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,119
Speaker 2: Yeah. I remember we were on three hundred radio stations.

184
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 2: I mean we're on four hundred. Now we were at

185
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 2: three point thirty, and they said, to the ESPN affiliates,

186
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 2: you know who had been loyal and I'd been loyal

187
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 2: to them. They said, if you continue to take his show,

188
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 2: then we're going to drop you as an ESPN affiliate.

189
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 2: And I just remember, gosh. This escalated quickly, and I'm

190
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: just but they wanted, and I understood the logic, as

191
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 2: a member of management told me years later, is we

192
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 2: wanted to make sure that you didn't survive so other

193
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,199
Speaker 2: anchors wouldn't get any ideas of leaving. I said, well,

194
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: you did a pretty good job. Did pretty good job.

195
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 2: But you know what, I survived. I swam to the

196
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: shores from Alcatraz and I survived. Yes, Todd, and I

197
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 2: was with.

198
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 6: The company fourteen years, And I thought in New York

199
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 6: in LA, I'm Connecticut, and I thought there'd be a

200
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 6: little different. I was going to train somebody for like

201
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 6: two weeks. Next thing I know, I'm like, you can make.

202
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 7: Today your last day, and they just I said, really.

203
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 2: This is what are you going to do?

204
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, which was fine, but I like, really that's what you're.

205
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 2: Well they pulled me off. I said, hey, I'm going

206
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 2: to leave, but can I, you know, say stay on

207
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 2: for two weeks, give you two week notice, and that therefore,

208
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 2: if you want me to have somebody fill in for

209
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 2: me and make it easier for the affiliates. And then

210
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 2: I think they let me do it for one day

211
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 2: and then they pulled me off. They were worried I

212
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 2: was going to say something. Yeah, I was like, no

213
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 2: fun days.

214
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,479
Speaker 3: Gosh, those were fun days.

215
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 2: And there was there was a lot of clandestine stuff

216
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 2: going on, and I wasn't quite sure because I didn't

217
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 2: really have anybody who was helping me with this. You know,

218
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: Paulie was, but he wasn't in there. I needed somebody

219
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 2: who I was getting. Second, I was getting like notes,

220
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 2: cryptic notes, because nobody wanted to get caught sending me

221
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 2: a message or calling me.

222
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 8: Yeah, paul we set up a dummy email account Fritzie

223
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 8: and I. Fritzy was like taking pictures like a spy

224
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 8: movie of his book with his numbers and send them

225
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 8: to me because he had no other backup for it.

226
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,599
Speaker 8: And I still have the email. It's like forty or

227
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 8: fifty emails of athlete numbers.

228
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were trying to get all the information out,

229
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 2: but then they knew we were trying to get the

230
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 2: information out, and it became sort of a you know,

231
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: we're like whispering. You know, I don't know why we

232
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 2: were whispering, but I said, you know, Ton, but you know,

233
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: get your book out. If they don't own that that's yours,

234
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: well I don't want you. And we're trying to get

235
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: old interviews out. And then you know, i'd say to Seating, Hey,

Speaker 2: A couple of phone calls while we wait for Matt

337
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 2: Lainer to join us. You know that Michigan win was

338
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: huge because now you have Notre Dame and then they

339
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 2: have Oregon, so usc you know, you could easily look

340
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 2: past that game, I guess since it was a home

341
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 2: game with Michigan, but they didn't. They played really well.

342
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 2: Now you've got Notre Dame and then you've got Oregon.

343
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 2: David in Ohio. David's back. What's on your mind? David?

344
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 10: Hey, Dan, I had an I team report real quick.

345
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 10: I was watching the show yesterday. Yeah, and it looked

346
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 10: like when Dylan was doing IM measuring your you guys

347
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 10: just height, he was just kind of ballparking it. Didn't

348
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 10: really use any logic to it. When they when I

349
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 10: got measured round of a kid, my mom brought out

350
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 10: the ruler and uh, you know, flatten my head just

351
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 10: to see what my heart was. It looked like he

352
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 10: was just kind of ballparking it. Maybe he had too

353
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 10: many white soles or I don't really know.

354
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, all right, well I think we're gonna stay

355
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 2: with those heights. Yeah.

356
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 3: See, yeah, I think we mentioned that in the moment

357
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 3: that Dylan was just eyeballing it and that it was

358
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:15,719
Speaker 3: completely unscientific, although I'm sticking to my results like they're scientific.

359
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 2: Matt Lioner Funks Big Noon Kickoff Analysts former USC quarterback

360
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 2: official Height and weight Matt Official, Hide and wait for me, Dan.

361
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, Uh, I'm about six four and three quarters about

362
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 5: two sixteen.

363
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 2: Wasn't there a time when quarterbacks could be too tall?

364
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 2: Like if you were six six. Yeah, didn't it like

365
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,880
Speaker 2: we kind of looked at you, was it brock Osweiler,

366
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 2: like there.

367
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 5: Were blacks brock os I was like six eight. I

368
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 5: think that was a tall I mean the tall when

369
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 5: I was playing the tallest. There were a bunch of

370
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 5: kind of us big old statue guys right like me, Carson, Me, Carson,

371
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 5: Brady Peyton. I can't believe I'm putting myself in the

372
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 5: same sentence.

373
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,199
Speaker 4: But as far as far height, we were all like

374
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 4: we were all literally the same height.

375
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 5: You know. Ben Roethlisberger was the biggest one Dan and

376
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 5: I think when we played that he was he was

377
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 5: like six six and a half to sixty but built different.

378
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 4: But yeah, it's a I.

379
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 5: Don't know, I feel like it's a different, different type

380
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 5: of body.

381
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 2: Now, So when did you realize that these quarterbacks were

382
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 2: better than you? That you come from USCA, you went

383
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 2: a Heisman, then you get to the NFL, and that's

384
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,199
Speaker 2: when you know things change as far as being a

385
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 2: starter or being a backup holding on a roster spot.

386
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean there's nowhere I always say this like

387
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 5: you could when you were in college as a quarterback.

388
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 4: When I was looking at a defense.

389
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 5: You could always pick on players, right, you could always

390
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 5: you know, there was a week Link. There was a

391
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 5: couple guys here and there that probably were draft picks

392
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 5: or good NFL players, I think as a quarterback position,

393
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 5: so it was it was you know, you could obviously

394
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 5: have some success. Then when you get to the NFL,

395
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 5: there really are no week Links. There's guys that are

396
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 5: better than others. But that's when it becomes your skill set.

397
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 5: That's when it becomes how much mentally you're ahead of

398
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 5: the game. Can you read a defense, the anticipation, the accuracy.

399
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 5: Accuracy is always a big one for me in the NFL.

400
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 5: For I mean to answer that question, I think my

401
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 5: rookie year, I thought I was fine.

402
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 4: I played well.

403
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 5: I really believed, and then probably year two and year three,

404
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 5: when we had a different system, I lost a little

405
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,199
Speaker 5: bit of confidence. That's when I kind of felt like, Okay,

406
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 5: my skill set, like I don't have the strongest arm,

407
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 5: I'm not going to run as much. Where can I

408
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 5: have the advantage? And for me, it was always mental.

409
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 5: I always felt like I was naturally just very smart

410
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 5: and I could read it, even the pick up things

411
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 5: very quickly. I would just say, the biggest thing is confidence.

412
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 5: When you lose your confidence as a quarterback, kind of

413
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 5: all hell breaks loose, and at least it did for me.

414
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 4: So I think kind of a couple of years in.

415
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 4: But it's funny.

416
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 5: I was actually I was actually just talking to Arion

417
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 5: Foster yesterday, my old teammate in Houston, and we were

418
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 5: kind of talking about that was my sixth year in

419
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 5: the league, you know, kind of washed the second second

420
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 5: through five, people kind of forgot where I was. Kubix

421
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 5: signs me and I tell the story all the time.

422
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 5: It was the best I'd ever felt as a quarterback ever,

423
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 5: Like USC felt great, but ever I was like, holy crap,

424
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 5: like I can play this position at a high level,

425
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 5: Like this was the Shanahan system and all those things,

426
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 5: and I got my confidence back, and Aaron and I

427
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 5: were just talking about. Aaron was like, dude, I feel

428
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 5: like if you would have stayed healthy because I broke

429
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 5: my collarbone the first start back, we would have made

430
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 5: a deep run in the playoff, like we lost to

431
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 5: Baltimore or Baltimore.

432
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 4: But it was the best I felt.

433
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 11: Dan.

434
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,360
Speaker 5: So look at the end of the day, I think,

435
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 5: you know, we're seeing a resurgence of all these players,

436
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 5: which is really cool, and the fit is just so important.

437
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 2: Obviously, what advice would you give a rookie quarterback?

438
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 5: Oh gosh, that's a good question. It's so different now

439
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 5: because a lot of these guys are just thrust in

440
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 5: right away and it's just like, go play. I do

441
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 5: think in a lot of ways. I'll get to that

442
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 5: answer a second. I do think it a lot of ways.

443
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,959
Speaker 5: A lot of these offenses now are geared toward these

444
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 5: players coming in in college. At the high school level,

445
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 5: I see all it's wide open. It's RPO is now

446
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 5: in the college. So a lot of these young players

447
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 5: I think are way more prepared than a guy like me,

448
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 5: or at least in that era where a lot of

449
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 5: us would sit, we'd back up, you kind of wait

450
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 5: your time. I still I still think being a sponge

451
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 5: is the biggest thing and asking questions and don't think

452
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 5: you know everything. A lot of these kids come in

453
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 5: and they are advanced and they think they kind of

454
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 5: know everything and they just don't, and and game reps

455
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 5: and experiences is a way to get better. So the

456
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 5: advice is to go in and be a sponge with

457
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,719
Speaker 5: the locker room ask questions, soak up everything, get with

458
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 5: their coaches as much as possible. The most I ever

459
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 5: met with my coach my coaches was in Houston with

460
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 5: coach napp Rest and Peace, who passed away. He was

461
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 5: phenomenal and he taught me that position like I'd never

462
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 5: been taught before. So those are things you just got

463
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 5: to you gotta you know, it's not necessarily first out late.

464
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 5: It's just go in there and soak up all the information,

465
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 5: ask questions, retain it, and go out and execute it.

466
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 2: We're going to South Bend. We're gonna be there Thursday

467
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 2: and Friday.

468
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, it's a doozy, buddy.

469
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 2: How do they treat you when you go to South Bend?

470
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 4: South Bends? They're not mean?

471
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 5: I mean, gosh, I when I was in Illinois a

472
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago, I thought, I mean, honestly, I

473
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 5: thought I needed security.

474
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 2: Dude.

475
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 4: Why I thought I needed well, I was. I was

476
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 4: also hyping up the crowd a little bit.

477
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 5: I was, you know, telling, obviously we're gonna kick their

478
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,199
Speaker 5: ass and all this stuff, and and uh we did not.

479
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 5: We did not win that game.

480
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 4: No, South End is South End is is fine.

481
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 5: I don't think they're they're you know, if I'm at that,

482
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 5: I was at that game a couple of years ago

483
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 5: in South Bend, and you know, a couple of booze.

484
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 5: I wouldn't expect anything less from those guys, though.

485
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 2: Nobody tried to push you and say, oh, you know,

486
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 2: here's a bush push for you.

487
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 5: I mean I get that. I get that all the time.

488
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 5: You know, oh you cheated your bush.

489
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 4: I'm my guys, this happened. I think it was.

490
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 5: This is a twenty year anniversary. I think that's a

491
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 5: twenty year round versus.

492
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 4: Like, guys, guys, come on, can we get it?

493
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: Can we?

494
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, Brady Quinn, I know he's a

495
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 5: frequent on the show. Brady was like, come on, guys,

496
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 5: can we move past this? But again, that's this week.

497
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 5: I'm sure we'll talk about talk about it on Big

498
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 5: Noon this weekend. But you're gonna be there. I mean,

499
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 5: that's a big one. I mean, playoff elimination game for

500
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 5: Notre Dame. With already two losses. USC can lose this

501
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 5: and obviously still went out and make a playoff. I

502
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 5: imagine a ten and two USC team is in, but

503
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 5: they still they still have Oregon on the road.

504
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 4: They still in there.

505
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 5: They have a much difficult, much more difficult path and

506
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 5: schedule than Notre Dame.

507
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 4: Notre Dame wins this. I think they're coast into a

508
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 4: ten and two playoff spot.

509
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 2: I really do you know. I go back to that

510
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 2: play with the Reggie Bush play. Didn't you have the

511
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 2: fourth down completion to Dwayne Jarrett? Yeah, that was fourth

512
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 2: and nine, and people don't focus. I think the the

513
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 2: the Bush push over shadows that fourth down play that converted.

514
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 5: Well, there's a there's a couple plays the fourth down

515
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 5: for sure. The fourth and nine, well, it's third and twenty,

516
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 5: and I remember there's a great clip. It's me and

517
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 5: Sark and Pete on the sideline, and the whole thing

518
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 5: was right, just get half back. If it's not there,

519
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 5: check down to Reggie, let him go get some yards

520
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 5: and at least fourth and nine is manageable, you know

521
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 5: with our guys and anyway, and I've told the story,

522
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 5: but it was one on one and throw it up

523
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 5: to Dwayne and again that ball an inch. Either way,

524
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 5: it's an incomplete we lose the game. It was just

525
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 5: one of those plays, right, we executed at a high level.

526
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,959
Speaker 5: I say this all the time Dwayne was not fast.

527
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 5: Then god, he got hawked at like the twenty yard line.

528
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 5: Because if we score right there, there's still a minute.

529
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 5: Let Brady gonna lead him down, they're gonna win the game.

530
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 5: So he gets hawked at the twenty. The one hidden

531
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 5: play in that day and that I always say, there

532
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 5: was a third down and four or five down there.

533
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 5: Reggie picked up the first down with a run. We

534
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 5: barely got a yard. If we don't get that, it's

535
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 5: fourth down and one from like the seven yard.

536
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 4: It's just a much different thing.

537
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,080
Speaker 5: So that's the other play that I think a lot

538
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 5: of people forget about is Reggie got to converted a

539
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 5: first down that stop the clock, move the change, we

540
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 5: can huddle up and execute another play.

541
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 2: Well you yeah, I'm humble that and I and it

542
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 2: stays in bounds. Yeah, we lose and then you lose.

543
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, god, yead Dan, there's a lot you know,

544
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 5: there's a lot of ifs in that game, but we

545
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 5: haded a win in so it's all that matters.

546
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 2: Do you hold that over Brady Quinch hen?

547
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Well listen, Brady, I love Brady's like a

548
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 5: he's like a brother. You know we love each other.

549
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 5: We we Uh. He's a great dude, but he is

550
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 5: a Notre dame through and through guy. We all know that.

551
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 5: I think he cares a lot more about this than

552
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 5: I do.

553
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 4: But you know, sometimes you just gotta you just gotta

554
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:43,479
Speaker 4: keep him in check a little bit.

555
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 8: You know.

556
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 4: I always say like, hey, buddy, I know three to.

557
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 1: Zero gets you.

558
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 4: But listen, they've beaten us, six of them.

559
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 5: They've owned us pretty much the last decade, so there

560
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 5: hasn't been a lot for me to say to him.

561
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 5: And again, I think this weekend is another. This is

562
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 5: just a really tough game for us to go on

563
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 5: the road and beat a team like that, who I

564
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 5: think is one of the hottest teams in the country.

565
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 5: So we'll see.

566
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 2: Talking to Matt Lioner the Fox Big Noon Kickoff crew

567
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 2: in an arbor. It's Washington and Michigan coming up this Saturday.

568
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 2: You're also working with Abbott again. This is season that

569
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,439
Speaker 2: you've worked with we give blood drive. Tell the audience

570
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 2: more about that.

571
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is awesome. I think we talked last year

572
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 5: about this as well. Thanks for having me on to

573
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 5: promote this a little bit. Yeah, Abbot's teamed up with

574
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 5: the Big Ten again and really just last year, this

575
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 5: campaign and this blood drive saved about sixty thousand lives.

576
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 5: There's already been over one hundred and ten thousand lives

577
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 5: saves with blood donations and we're only halfway through the season,

578
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 5: so we've already doubled that, which is almost double that,

579
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 5: which is amazing. So basically what it is is the

580
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 5: school in the Big Ten, all eighteen schools, whatever school

581
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 5: donates the most blood wins a million dollars to advance

582
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 5: what is it, student and community health for their school,

583
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 5: So there's a big incentive. There's also prizes in between

584
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 5: and all those things. But there's a massive blood shortage

585
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 5: in this country. Someone needs blood every two seconds. One

586
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,719
Speaker 5: blood donation can save up to three lives. So Abbott

587
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 5: has done an incredible job. It's been awesome to partner

588
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 5: with them. Dan last year was a success. This year's

589
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 5: even better and we're only halfway through so and it's

590
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 5: a fun way to sort of compete with other schools.

591
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 5: And I'm wearing the USC polo today because our team,

592
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 5: I believe USC finished last in this last year. So

593
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 5: encouraging everybody but especially Trojan fans to get out there

594
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,479
Speaker 5: and donate.

595
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 4: It's for a great cause and can go a long way, obviously.

596
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 2: So what's the best thing in your office aside from

597
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 2: the Heisman trophy?

598
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 5: Oh you got, Well, you can tell I'm a Kobe fan.

599
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,199
Speaker 5: So that's my mama mentality. And this is a signed

600
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 5: jersey by Kobe saying to Matt, I don't.

601
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 4: Know what that says.

602
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 5: I can't read it, but from Kobe, Kobe's my favorite

603
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 5: player of all time. You know, I gotta do the Heisman.

604
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 5: I got to do a little bit of a Heisman flag,

605
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 5: but I got the Kobe jersey. Dan, my favorite player,

606
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 5: had a chance to get to know him, you know,

607
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 5: just outside of sports. He's Orange County, was in Newport

608
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 5: Beach and we had a lot of mutual friends, and

609
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 5: I hung out with him a couple of times, barbecues

610
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 5: and all that, and obviously I think, you know, like

611
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 5: everybody affected us when he passed. But he's he's my

612
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 5: goat man. So any any Kobe memorabilia I got, that's

613
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 5: probably the best thing.

614
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 2: So Okay, if you have to get out of the

615
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 2: house and you can grab either the Heisman or the Kobe.

616
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 5: Jersey, well I got two hands.

617
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 4: Dan taking one of each.

618
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 2: The heisman can feel replaced.

619
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 5: And I don't think it can. That's actually a good question.

620
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 5: I don't think I can replace my heisman trophy. I mean,

621
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,239
Speaker 5: I could get like a fake replica. But if I

622
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 5: lose that, baby, I'm done.

623
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 4: It's over.

624
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 2: I'm taking that, Paully, can you check on that. If

625
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 2: Matt something happens to the heisman.

626
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, let me tell you something about my office right now. Okay,

627
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 5: I'm in I'm in the garage. Okay, so my wife

628
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 5: took our office in the house. I'm in the owner

629
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 5: of my garage in this little space.

630
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 4: And I'm looking out here.

631
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 5: I got I got crap everywhere, Dan, So that's that's

632
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 5: how I'm living.

633
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 4: But I got a nice.

634
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 5: Little I don't have the setup that you have. You know,

635
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: you got your you got your great stuff up there.

636
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 5: But I'm working with what I got over here.

637
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 2: Man, Did Penn State have any other option then to

638
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 2: fire James Franklin.

639
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a great question. Well, I love James no

640
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 5: In personally. I think he's fantastic. It's it's one of

641
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 5: those things where I just feel like there was there

642
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 5: was starting to be one a little bit of this

643
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 5: panic kind of losing the fan base for the first time,

644
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 5: I think this year, especially when you see a guy

645
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 5: like Kurt Signetti, who I know is a name that's

646
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 5: being thrown in there.

647
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 4: But you see a team.

648
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 5: Like Indiana winning right, these types of games something that

649
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 5: James just hasn't been able to do in his tenure.

650
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 5: Now he wins ten games every year. He's a fantastic coach.

651
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 5: I think there's four or five coaches in the country

652
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 5: that have consistently done that, whether they want the title

653
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 5: or not, and that's that's James like.

654
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 4: So he's been fantastic.

655
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 5: But I just feel like there are Penn State's looking

656
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 5: at the landscape and saying, gosh, if if Indiana can

657
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 5: do this, if if if Landing can build this Oregon

658
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 5: team out there, because Penn State's got unlimited resources too,

659
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 5: they really do, I mean, they have everything, then then

660
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 5: why haven't we been able to do that? So and

661
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 5: I think there just finally was a little bit of

662
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 5: this disconnect with the fan base for the first time.

663
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 5: Uh and the brass So look, this is kind of

664
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 5: the nature of the Beast. It's crazy if you think

665
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 5: about this, They're one play away from beating Oregon a

666
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago and maybe being the number one

667
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 5: team in the country right now, and again that win

668
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 5: might you know, give them momentum, but you lose to

669
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 5: UCLA and then you lose at home again to two

670
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 5: of statistically right now, some of two of the worst

671
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,959
Speaker 5: teams in the Big Ten. Look, I think that's what

672
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 5: they thought had to be done. James will bounce back

673
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 5: on his feet. I think the interesting thing is just

674
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 5: who's going to get that job. Obviously you see the

675
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 5: names that are up for it. But it's a fantastic job.

676
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 5: I mean they've won, you know, ten games every year.

677
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 5: You can win a national championship there. You have resources,

678
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,479
Speaker 5: you have a great administration, you got great fans, they

679
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 5: have a huge renovation for the stadium. So everything is

680
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 5: aligned up there for them to win a championship. And

681
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 5: I think that's the reason why this happened is just

682
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 5: because they haven't been able to do that.

683
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: Good to talk to you again, Safe travels there to

684
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:23,280

Speaker 4: Thank you, matesome, Thanks Dan, good to see you, buddy.

687
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 2: You know we were thinking about this talking about this yesterday.

688
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 2: How do you feel if you're Northwestern that all of

689
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 2: a sudden that was the tipping point, Like, Okay, you

690
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 2: lost on the road to Ucla. Oh you lost to Northwestern.

691
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 2: Now we're going to fire you. And it's like, I guess,

692
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 2: is that a backheaded compliment?

693
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 11: There?

694
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 2: They take down coaches, Yes, Northwestern, we take down coaches.

00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 2: I was talking to Seaton during the commercial break and

703
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: I decided to get a popsicle. Well, the problem is,

704
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 2: I didn't finish my popsicle. So I've got a half

705
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 2: eaten popsicle right here. It's a bold mid show break snack.

706
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 2: I have a popsicle. Yeah, I know. I was just

707
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 2: kind of looking through the refrigerator and I thought, you know,

708
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 2: about a popsicle.

709
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 8: You got to know that's taken more than two minutes

710
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 8: to take down.

711
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 11: I know.

712
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 2: And then you can't place a popsicle anyplace like once

713
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 2: you have it, once you start, then you can't do

714
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: anything with it because you.

715
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 8: Put on the desk, it leaves a spot. And she

716
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 8: put on a napkin it sticks.

717
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I've got my popsicle here all right. Uh, yes,

718
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 2: it's got a budget.

719
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 6: Your time a little better. We talked about this off there.

720
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 2: Thank you, Tod Zach and Knoxville. Hi, Zach, what's on

721
00:32:59,360 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 2: your mind today?

722
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 4: Why are you just gonna.

723
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 8: Stand there, sit there holding it the whole time?

724
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

725
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 2: Just keep eating it?

726
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 8: You want like an assistant, like like Morris Day had

727
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 8: Jerome next to him holding the mirror.

728
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,719
Speaker 2: No, because everybody has jobs to do.

729
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 8: Come guys, im back with some time.

730
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 2: No, No, those guys are working. If you're watching on Peacock,

731
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 2: you know Mario Anthony. Uh, well they're not doing much.

732
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 2: Then we have a kidnamed Matt. We still don't know

733
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 2: what he does. He just shows up and sits in there. Uh,

734
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 2: there's Tyler, he's not doing anything. Got my dog back there.

735
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 2: Rob's over that. Rob's usually work and Dylan might be

736
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 2: back there. There's Dylan. He not doing anything either, raised

737
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 2: back there too. So well, they gave me the impression

738
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 2: that they were working. Hey, Zach, what's on your mind day?

739
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 12: I was gonna say, maybe Dylan can take a break

740
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 12: from looking like he's forty to hold your popsicle. I

741
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 12: was just going to say that it sounds a little

742
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 12: bit like Mark Cuban in the latest episode of Pablotry

743
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:08,479
Speaker 12: finds out with this whole passing Liane thing. He gets

744
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 12: presented with fact after fact and just uses mental gymnastics

745
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 12: to come up with a different outcome than everybody else

746
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 12: has and also wanted to shout out you on your

747
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 12: episode of Pablotori finds out with him and Levatar. That

748
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 12: was good, y'all, chop it up and worth a listen.

749
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,760
Speaker 2: Thank you, Zach. Yeah, I had fun with those guys.

750
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: Pablo tre Yes, Don.

751
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 6: Well, I can't do physical gymnastics.

752
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 2: I'll take that.

753
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 6: I'll do mental gymnastics.

754
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 2: Jeremy and Long Beach. Hey Jeremy, what's on your mind today?

755
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 1: Hi?

756
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 6: Dan?

757
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 7: Thanks for taking my call. First time caller, a longtime

758
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,280
Speaker 7: listener six foot in a fluctuating one to seventy five,

759
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,600
Speaker 7: and I wanted to bring up the topic. This seems

760
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 7: to be a reoccurring issue with the playcock in the NFL,

761
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 7: And like last night was a perfect instance where you

762
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 7: had Chicago late in the game, the fourth quarter, ten

763
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 7: thirty six on the clock, they were at their own

764
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 7: forty five and the play clock hits zero and it

765
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 7: takes at least half a second for the referee to

766
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 7: make the call. And I don't understand why this day

767
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 7: and age, with the technology we have, why there isn't

768
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 7: just like a simple buzzer they could keep in their

769
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 7: pocket or have around their neck or something that when

770
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 7: that clock hit zero, then it triggers and they immediately

771
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 7: blow the whistle. Because last night was a critical play

772
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 7: and it led to a fifty five yard touchdown that

773
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 7: completely changed the complexion of the game. And sorry, Paulie,

774
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 7: I'm not ripping on your Bears. I'm not a fan

775
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 7: of either team, but this just seems to be a

776
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 7: reoccurring issue in the NFL and it leads to big

777
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 7: plays at times.

778
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've talked about this before. I forget who we

779
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 2: had on who said that, Like, there were so many

780
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 2: times when the ball is snapped and it feels like

781
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 2: it's being snapped right after right as it gets to

782
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 2: zero zero, it's got zero's across the clock. I forget

783
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 2: who brought that up. That it's almost like they give

784
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 2: you or maybe it's different on the field. It was

785
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 2: they had some excuse as to how they're able to

786
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 2: not call this, and they give the quarterback the benefit

787
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:12,959
Speaker 2: of the doubt. Yes, Todd, I've wondered if.

788
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 6: There's an edict from the commissioner or someone saying, no

789
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 6: one likes to lay a game penalties. Let's move things along.

790
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,839
Speaker 6: If it's half a second, three quarters a second, even

791
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 6: one full second, wink at it. We can't just stop

792
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,320
Speaker 6: it every time. It just immediately hits, which they should,

793
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 6: you know, if you're going to be technically correct.

794
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but nobody likes holding calls either, like you can't

795
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 2: go you know, we're going to draw the line with

796
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 2: delay of game penalties, but you know holding go ahead interference. Yes,

797
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 2: it's too way too many flags.

798
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 3: I don't know statistically if we look at it this

799
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,280
Speaker 3: year or what, but there's a flag thrown on almost

800
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 3: every play.

801
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: It feels like there's another one. That's why the Chiefs

802
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 2: didn't have a penalty.

803
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 3: It's okay, well one that's impossible, but going the other

804
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 3: way is way worse, especially because some of the rules

805
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 3: don't even make sense us in Florida.

806
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:02,399
Speaker 2: Hi Chris, what's on your mind?

807
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,240
Speaker 11: Hey Dan? Thanks for having me on. I'm still thinking

808
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 11: about yesterday's show. Toward the end, you guys were talking.

809
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 11: I think the topic was like really good bands that

810
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 11: you never got or that you don't personally like, and

811
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 11: I have a nomination for that. But before I get

812
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 11: to it, Fritzy drove me crazy with his comments about

813
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 11: Bob Dylan. And I get where he's coming from because

814
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 11: him and I, I think, are about the same age. I'm

815
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 11: just turning fifty in December, and as a child, I

816
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,760
Speaker 11: didn't think much about Dylan either. But when you become

817
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 11: older and you have kids, and especially if you've gone

818
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 11: through some stuff, you listen to those songs and like

819
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 11: songs like hard Rain is going to Fall. That man

820
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 11: is a genius. And not only is he a genius,

821
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 11: he was writing those kinds of songs in his early twenties.

822
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 11: They were so wise for his age that I can't

823
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 11: believe it. So I just kind of wanted to mention

824
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 11: that if flumped, you know, especially with him fancying himself

825
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 11: as a singer, if you want to stick with Hall

826
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 11: of Oates and the shiny, happy pop stuff you can,

827
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 11: but I would encourage you to take another look at

828
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 11: Dylan and then last thing, just to close it down,

829
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 11: my nomination will be Warren von c.

830
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:11,240
Speaker 2: Oh Warren Zevon. Well, but Warren wasn't a huge artist.

831
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 2: I mean he had were Wolves of London, lawyers, guns

832
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,439
Speaker 2: and money, but I don't know how many. I don't

833
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 2: think he had best selling albums. But I when that

834
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 2: were Wolves of London comes on, uh, it's great, lawyers,

835
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 2: guns and money. The bleep has hit the fan, yes, Pauling.

836
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 8: For me, Warren Zvon's the opposite category, a person, an

837
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 8: artist you didn't know much about and discovered later and said, oh,

838
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 8: this guy's legit and got into his stuff.

839
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 2: Final results of the pole questions.

840
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: People are wondering what would happen if Todd ate a

841
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 3: popsicle mid segment?

842
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 2: He would lose your mind. If it was called the

843
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 2: Todd Fritt Show. It was called the Todd Fritz Show. Right,

844
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 2: he did do whatever he wants. Patrick, That's what people

845
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 2: are missing. I don't I don't want this go to waste.

846
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 2: I thought I had more time and I realized I didn't,

847
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 2: and then I thought, I don't want to throw it away.

848
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 2: So that's it. I mean, I got it. There's no

849
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 2: food in the studio the I know, thank you? Ton.

850
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 3: Who was the MVP OTN last night? Blake Snell, Jon Robinson,

851
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 3: DeAndre Smith, Swift or other? Right now, it's actually a

852
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 3: tie between Bijon and Blake.

853
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 2: How about that?

854
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 3: Better playoffs to watch baseball or football? Football are winning

855
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 3: that one and most likely to make the playoffs? Bears, Cowboys, Vikings.

856
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,919
Speaker 3: The Vikings have fifty six percent of that vote.

857
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 4: And that is wrong.

858
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 2: According to you? Right is the wrong? Okay?

859
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 11: All right?

860
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 2: How about this dange sports history.

861
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 8: I'll just give you one. Nineteen ninety Joe Montana passed

862
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,040

Speaker 8: in a game. Five of them were caught by Jerry

Speaker 8: Rice in one game nineteen ninety.

Speaker 2: On this date, Steve Bartman, Steve Burton.

866
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:04,879

874
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:29,439
