1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. We made it to a Friday. It's a 3 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 1: meat Friday at that and if you follow what we're 4 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: cooking on the trigger, we have beer, bread, beer, braised chicken, tacos, 5 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: and short ribbed chili. Coming up later on who has 6 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 1: it better than us? No? Anybody? Nobody? All right, Welcome 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: to the program. Coming up, we have a home now 8 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: for Leveon Bell, the Kansas City Chiefs. When does he 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: play and what role will he have? I have a 10 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,480 Speaker 1: couple of suggestions there. Astros beat the Rays, they're still 11 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: down three two. The Braves roll the Dodgers and they're 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: up three games to one. We're not sure about the 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: Colts this weekend. Right now, there's some speculation that maybe 14 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: the Colts game is up in the air. Nick Saban 15 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: still wants to coach. He wants to be in the building. 16 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: He wants to know what he can get away with. 17 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: What are the rules and how does he kind of 18 00:00:56,040 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: push those rules? George Alabama. On Saturday, the big NFL 19 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: game will be the Packers and the Buccaneers. If you'd 20 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: like get in touch with the program, you're welcome to 21 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: join us in a variety of ways. You can email, 22 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 1: you can dial us up, you can tweet. We'll have 23 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: a poll, question, play of the day, stat of the day. 24 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: We say good morning to those watching on Peacock and 25 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: also listening on our three hundred and seventy six radio 26 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: affiliates around the country. Well they won't go away. The 27 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 1: Astros did it again. Baseball's most controversial team stayed alive 28 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: in the ALCS, beating the raising Game five, Carlos Karea 29 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: with a walk off home run in the night to 30 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: keep hope alive in Houston. And here's Dusty Baker, the 31 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: Astro's manager, on Karea going to the plate. Carlos told 32 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: me before you went up till he goes, you know, 33 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: walk off, And I said go ahead, on man, and 34 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: I said, Lord, please let us walk off because if not, 35 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: we got to use Frember and then we don't have 36 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: frembur tomorrow. You know things, Things couldn't have worked out 37 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: any better at that time. It's fitting that Karea has 38 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,919 Speaker 1: been the star. He's been the most outspoken and define 39 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: an Astro through all of this. And no matter how 40 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: you feel about the team, you have to admit they 41 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: are interesting. If you don't live in the Houston area. 42 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: Odds are you're probably not pulling for them, but you're 43 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: going to tune in, probably just to watch them lose 44 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: or hope they lose. But Houston's the first team since 45 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: the O four Red Sox to force a game six 46 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: after falling behind three games to none. And we all 47 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: know what happened in O four. But the Astros have 48 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: a long way to go here. The Rays still have 49 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: a great pitching staff. It won't be easy to beat 50 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: them two more times. But if you're rooting for drama, 51 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: you might want Houston to stick around a little bit longer. 52 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: As for the National League, the Dodgers on the brink. 53 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: Not pretty last night. Here's Dave Roberts on Clayton Kershaw's 54 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: playoff resume. He came out and you know, five innings, 55 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: one run, and then you know, again, we just you 56 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: know what happened right there in that sixth inning, but 57 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,959 Speaker 1: he gave a chance to win the baseball game. You know, 58 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: we couldn't put any runs up early and get a 59 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: lead and or totally you know, after the Eddie home run. 60 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: But that narrative couldn't be further from the truth. Here's 61 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw and that sixth inning, the pivotal sixth inning 62 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: when the Braves broke it wide open. It would have 63 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: been nice to get to Cune out. You know, he's 64 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: pretty quick right there, and it's just kind of playing 65 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,679 Speaker 1: part of playing on turf. You know, he kind of 66 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: chopped that one up. And you know, Freddie had two 67 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: strikes on him and probably just went one too many 68 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: pitches inside and he hit it good, but it was 69 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: on the ground and still a two strikes, probably gotta 70 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: make a better pitch, and yeah, it's a It's a 71 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: tough way to go for that sixth inning for sure. 72 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: So now you gotta win a couple of them here. 73 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: And this is the Braves team that you had the 74 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: hiccup where you gave up eleven runs in the first 75 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: inning the previous game. But they do have a good 76 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: pitching staff and I still liken them to a better 77 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: version of the Padres. Those young hitters, they get up 78 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: there and they are not overwhelmed. The stage is not 79 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: too big for them right now. And as far as 80 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: the Astros, they're doing what they should do. If you 81 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: are a great team, prove you're a great team, and 82 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: you'll still go back to the same thing I say 83 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: every time I see them do something great, I say, 84 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: why did you cheat? If you had this talent? You 85 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: had two of the best pitchers in a long long 86 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: time in Garrett Cole and Justin Verlander, and we see 87 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: what you can do. But then I always go back 88 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: to the same thought I have is you had this talent. 89 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: You didn't need to cheat, did you? But you did, 90 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: and that's why it's always going to stick with you. 91 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear if the Astros getting by 92 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: the AIS or the Raising go to the World Service, 93 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: I still don't want to hear from any of these 94 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: Astros players like how do you like us now? Or hey, 95 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: what can you say? Or how can you be critical? Okay, 96 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: you know it's it's this is what happened, and they 97 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: can't erase it. Now you can add something to your 98 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: resume and you can say, hey, look at what we did. 99 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: We did it legitimately, great, congratulations. They got to win 100 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: two more games with my against my Raise. But the 101 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: Astros are fun to watch, I have to admit them. 102 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: This program is brought to you by NBC Sports and 103 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: the Breeders Cup.

Mclovin, what do you have for me today? Okay? 108 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: If you hate the Astros, like I will admit, I 109 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: lean into that camp. Would you rather they lose in 110 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: the ACLS or advance to the World Series where they 111 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: could also lose, but you risk them winning? So you 112 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 1: hate the Astros? I think it's the Alcs, but not ACLS. 113 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: Are you alx Alcs? Okay, so run that by me again. 114 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: When I'd rather rather them lose to the Raise or 115 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 1: advance to the World Series. So losing the ALCS or 116 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: the ACLS or losing the World Series? No, you have 117 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: them go to the world You don't know if they're 118 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: so you have the risk factor. You know what I 119 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,799 Speaker 1: would I want to see them go into the World Series, 120 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: but only if they were going to face the Dodgers. 121 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: That's the only scenario where I would root for them 122 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: to advance. And I have the Rays go into the 123 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: World Series against the Dodgers. So I'm going to stay 124 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: with the Rays and hope they advance. I think it's 125 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: a good story. I don't know, if you know, when 126 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: you think of baseball and we think of spring training, 127 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: and you think of Florida and you think of Arizona, 128 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: it just feels like during the regular season, you know 129 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: Tampa's playing, But I don't know if anybody cares. They 130 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: probably care more about the Lightning and certainly about the 131 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But this is a good team at 132 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: the organization as well run. They don't spend money, they 133 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: find players. I just there's no pulse even in Tampa, 134 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: feels like for the for the Rays, and that's a shame. 135 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: And I wonder is that a relocation project for a 136 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: team that could be one of the World Series. There's 137 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: no buzz with them, and that's that's sad because they 138 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: are a good team. They've been a good team, and 139 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: maybe they get a chance to win a World Series 140 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: this time around. Yeahma club. Okay, another pole question. Do 141 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: you blame Clayton Kershaw off for the Dodgers loss last night? No? No, 142 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: I mean Dave Roberts left him in. We thought if 143 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: Kershaw gave you five innings, that's it. But you know, 144 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: you just don't want to go to that bullpen too soon. 145 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: I think there's always that tendency of gosh, no, I 146 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: have to go there, because once you go there, then 147 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: you can't go back. And Kershaw had pitched well earlier 148 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: in the postseason, had the back spasms, and I thought, 149 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: if he gives you five innings, which he did, he 150 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: gave you five quality innings, and then you left him 151 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: out there and he had a couple of grounders they 152 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: got through, and then all of a sudden, the floodgates 153 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: opened up. But I can't put all the aim on him. 154 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: But it's not a coincidence that he struggles in the postseason. 155 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: This is habit forming here for him. And it's strange 156 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: to say, this guy's got three hundred million dollars. He 157 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: pitches for the Dodgers. He's going to the Hall of Fame. 158 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: He's going to be a first ballot Hall of Famer. 159 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: But I feel sorry for him. I do, because this 160 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: is something that stays with you forever, whether it's fair 161 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: or not. Whenever I bring up Clayton Kershaw and I 162 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,719 Speaker 1: talk about he's one of the great pitchers I have 163 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: to say he's one of the great regular season pitchers 164 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: of all time because he's an average pitcher in the 165 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: postseason when you're eleven and twelve and your ERA is 166 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: over four. And if I look at that and compare 167 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: those numbers to his regular season resume, it's you don't 168 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: even know it's the same pitcher. If I said this 169 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: picture pitches this way in the regular season and pitches 170 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: this way in the postseason, you go, there's no way. 171 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: But that's been the case with Clayton Kershaw. Yeah, McClean, 172 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: but I feel like in this year's playoffs, no starter, 173 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: even the great ones, to get past five or six innings. 174 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 1: They're all pulling them. I feel like that was not 175 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 1: on Kershaw at all. Last night, the Dodgers bats just 176 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: went to sleep. How do you score fifteen runs and 177 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: then do nothing? But that's why I said, you know, 178 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: the Tomorrow's momentum is Tomorrow's pitcher, Like, who's on the 179 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: mound facing you? Hey, they put up fifteen runs. We've 180 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: seen this before where all of a sudden, the next 181 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: game the bats go quiet. You know, I guess there's 182 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: plenty of blame to go around. Clayton will bear some 183 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: of that, and he should Dave Roberts, you can you know, 184 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: should he have pulled him? I mean, we have the 185 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: benefit of hindsight here, and those weren't hard hit ground. 186 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: You know, they weren't sharply hit. But then you start 187 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 1: to add, you know, one and then there's one and 188 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, all takes is one big 189 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: swing and then you're in trouble. And that's the case. 190 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: But the Braves have been a better team than the Dodgers. 191 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: Dodgers have all the talent, should have all the answers. 192 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: But this is a Braves team that you know you're 193 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: catching them at the wrong time. They're good, they're not afraid. 194 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman has been great, these younger players. You've got 195 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: a pretty good pitching staff there. And that's where it 196 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: gets when a team is young and gets confident. It's 197 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,599 Speaker 1: like the Miami Heat, that's a young team. For the 198 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: most part, they started to gain confidence. They weren't afraid. 199 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: Hey we went through the Milwaukee Bucks. Hey we'll go 200 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: through the Raptors. Hey we'll go through the Celtics. You 201 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: don't have time to think about that. Those are the 202 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: teams that are really dangerous when you're a favorite. It's 203 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: hard to win when you're a favorite, because even when 204 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: you do, people go okay. Like I mentioned this a 205 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, it felt like when the Dodgers win, 206 00:10:52,960 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: you exhale like there's no celebration, And that's really difficult 207 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: to play that way when the expectation levels are so 208 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: high that when you win, it's like, Okay, you're supposed 209 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: to win the Braves, even the Rays, and you can 210 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: say the Astros for that, you know, I guess the 211 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: same direction. It's pretty amazing that there's no expectation level. 212 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: There's none on the Astros, very little on the Rays, 213 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: and there was very little with the Braves. And when 214 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: you're able to do that and have that confidence and 215 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, and you love to be able 216 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 1: to say nobody picked us, nobody believed in us. And 217 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: these are teams that can all say that except for 218 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Yeah, poem, I know this is looking a 219 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: little forward. But if the Dodgers don't advance, I think 220 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: a lot of people think Dave Roberts would be fired 221 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: the manager. Do you think that could be a mistake, 222 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: because if you compare to maybe like the nineties Braves, 223 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 1: Bobby Cox. He only won one World Series, but he 224 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 1: kept I think at fourteen seasons where he won ninety plus. 225 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: You do you think the Dodgers management will I appease 226 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: the fans. I'm not trying to appease the fans. I'm 227 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: trying to make the best decision for this team. Now. 228 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: I've heard both sides to this, and it's been reported 229 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: on both sides that Dave Roberts, no matter what happens, 230 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: is still going to be back. And then there's also 231 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: if Doc Rivers got fired by the Clippers, then will 232 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, you know, be able to go into next 233 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: season having flamed out and maybe not got to the 234 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: World Series, and still keep Dave Roberts. I don't know. 235 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: By all accounts, people love Dave Roberts the person, but managerial, 236 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, decisions here. I think that's where you take 237 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: a really long, hard look in the offseason of what 238 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 1: some of those moves were. And I know, you know, 239 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: this is during a pandemic, and you know you can 240 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: put those seas season in a vacuum, but there were 241 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: still decisions that were made, previous year's decisions that were 242 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: made or not made and you know that might come 243 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: back and haunt Dave Roberts. He got Dustin May, who's pitching, 244 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: and then you got Walker Bueller. If they got to 245 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: a game seven, is Clayton Kershaw going to be your guy? 246 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: Maybe in a relief situation there, but man, you've got 247 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: to get some great pitching here and then hope that 248 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: you know you're able to It feels like the Dodger 249 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: Bats keep waiting for somebody else to do it. Because 250 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: there's so much talent in that lineup, you just go, yeah, 251 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: he'll pick us a months, he'll pick a Seeger is 252 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 1: going to do Bell and Jurgen Mookie Bets didn't do 253 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: anything last night. So it's not just Kershaw, but he'll 254 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,599 Speaker 1: be the poster child for when you think of the 255 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: lack of success. If I juxtapose postseason regular season, I 256 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: don't know who comes close to who wants to come 257 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: close to that. You know, Greg Maddox wasn't a great 258 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: postseason pitcher. Tom Glavin wasn't a great postseason pitcher. But 259 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: if I'm looking at the stark contrast of numbers of 260 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: regular season of postseason, I think you'd be hard pressed 261 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: to find somebody who's had a career that's similar to 262 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw's. Yeah, Mookie Bets is hitting one forty three 263 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: in the series. Yeah, Bellinger's hitting one eight eight seegers 264 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: carrying them, Yeah, Peterson's carrying them too. Yeah, I'm club. 265 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: It's not like the Braves had their ace. They had 266 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: some rob Nobody even knew it was like twenty two 267 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: years of age Bryce Wilson. But once again, these guys 268 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: don't know better. That's why when you look at what 269 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 1: the younger players in the bubble did in the NBA, 270 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: it's because they didn't have to go into a foreign ballpark. 271 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: They didn't have to have face that you know, home 272 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: field advantage or home court advantage for the other team. 273 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: I mean, they were just there. You know, nothing changed, 274 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: You walked over, you played, and you weren't intimidated by anything. 275 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: The Braves aren't in Los Angeles facing the Dodgers. They're 276 00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: in Texas. They don't know better, but man, are they dangerous? 277 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: All right? So that's the baseball playoffs here. Phone calls 278 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: are welcome. H seven seven three DP show email address 279 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: DP at dan Patrick dot com. Albert Breer from the 280 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: Monday Morning Quarterback was the first to report Levion Bell 281 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: going to the Kansas City Chiefs. I have an idea 282 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: how they're going to use him. I don't know when 283 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: they're going to use him, but I want Albert to 284 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: talk about this decision because he could have gone to 285 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, maybe gotten more carries there, but they're gonna 286 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: probably platoon him. I think they're going to use him 287 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: at the goal line because if there is a knock 288 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: on Clyde Edwards Hilaire is he's not good at the 289 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: goal line and he's a Levion Bell can still catch 290 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: the football. Yeah. Point, did anyone think that Levian Belle 291 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: is going to go to the Dolphins over the Chiefs yesterday? 292 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: All Right? Was that a goof no? Because if you 293 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: have a guy who's complained about his lack of use, 294 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna go to a team where he's not going 295 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: to get a lot of touches, where he could go 296 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: to the Dolphins and probably get more touches. Yeah. But 297 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: like the other way to say that is, oh so wait, 298 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: I could go to the Dolphins and work my ass 299 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: off and lose. Okay, Yeah, I'm in like, why why 300 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: would anybody do that? Or you could go be like 301 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: the third man in on the Chiefs and get a ring, 302 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: get to play in January. I'll do that all day. 303 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: Way off checks. Wait, so you guys would rather go 304 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: and not sure how much you'd play with the Chiefs 305 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: than actually be the starting running back for the Miami Dolphins. 306 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: Definitely because the money is essentially the same, right, Basically, yeah, 307 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: you could incentivize it. Right. Who's the Dolphins starting running 308 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: back mclovin. They have that kid who I don't know 309 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: his name? There you go, that's all I need to know. Smith. 310 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: Who's that guy that have that kid? That're like, oh, 311 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't even know. I don't want to go play 312 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: for that team. But they actually they they could see 313 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: Miles Gaskin. Is that who? No, let's see who's the guy. 314 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: It's a name that we we know, but we don't know. 315 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: It's a new running back. But he lives there, right, 316 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: that's one thing. I think he loves him some Miami 317 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: as I remember Lady Bell. Yeah, yeah, if I'm a player, 318 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: there is a little bit of a Hey, I could 319 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: spend the winner in Miami Myles blew a Gaskin. So 320 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 1: it's the guy we know, but we don't know he's 321 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: a big fantasy issue. Everyone's like, wait, is this guy 322 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: for real? I think I got to get other running back. 323 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: But don't you want to be in Miami. Miami could 324 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: make the playoffs, by the way we discount, right, Fitzpatrick. 325 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 1: I know it's not it's about Kansas City. I think 326 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: more than Miami that Kansas City. We think, well, there's 327 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: gonna be a playoff check. There could be a couple 328 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: of playoff checks, could be a super Bowl check. I 329 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: understand then winning is a lot of fun. It is, 330 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: But with the Jets, he didn't even get the ball. 331 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: I wonder if he got the ball, he would have 332 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 1: been he would have been okay with playing for the Jets, 333 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: even though I want to play, like I want the ball. 334 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: If I'm with Kansas City, I get chances there, but 335 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: I still want to be able to play. Yeah, he's 336 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: still gonna play. He's just gonna play on a team 337 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,719 Speaker 1: that's actually good. Why would you want to go from 338 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: the Jets who are just atrocious to the Dolphins that 339 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,159 Speaker 1: are like because my next two or three games are 340 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: against the Jets. If I go to the Dolphins, I 341 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: get to I get to play great, I get I 342 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 1: get the ball. I get two is going to be 343 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: playing by the end of the year. Oh, that'll be fun. 344 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: You could get to spend the whole year with his 345 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: learning curve. All right, awesome, nobody's complaining about the learning 346 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 1: curve with Justin Herbert or Joe Burrow. Yes, mclevan. Do 347 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: you remember when Bell held out and every day he 348 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: put up a viral video of him on South Beach 349 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: hanging out at the beach? I think the South Beach 350 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,719 Speaker 1: factor is the only thing for the Dolphins. You're right, 351 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: Football wives Chiefs by a thousand, but beach. Yeah. Yeah, 352 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 1: I still want to carry the ball.

I've been to ball. 355 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: That's not even close for me. Can't say he's fantastic. 356 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: You ever been there?

Is he a good fit in 399 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: the Kansas City offense? This is what I was wondering, 400 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: because we talked about Buffalo, we talked about Miami, I 401 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: talked about Pittsburgh. There it felt like there are a 402 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: few teams that would be interested in Leveon Bell. The 403 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: problem the Chiefs have and they don't have many on offense. 404 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire has not been good in short yard situations, 405 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: not been good at the goal line. Nine carries in 406 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: goal you know, goal line situations minus one yard, no 407 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: touchdowns to show for it, and the Chiefs have one 408 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: rushing touchdown from a running back this season. Now, maybe 409 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: we're nitpicking a little bit there, but I do think 410 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 1: that this is a concern because there will be a 411 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: game where that running attack is going to have to 412 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: come up with some big yards or a big carry. 413 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,640 Speaker 1: And this is what Andy read the luxury of having 414 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: a great offense like this, and you can bring in 415 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: Levion Bell. It's a you know, a well run team. 416 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: They have success and then you're saying too and basically, 417 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna pick your spots for you. And he's still 418 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: a great receiver out of the backfield. This program brought 419 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: to you by Mercedes AMG.

He joins us on the program. Why is 426 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: Levy on Belgrade fit for Kansas City? Well, you mentioned 427 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 1: the shorty artist thing. I think that's certainly a factor. 428 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: Dan that Damian Williams, who had served in that role 429 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: for the Chiefs, opted out, so that left a hole 430 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: on the roster. I and the other thing is they 431 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: still love Clyde Edwards Hilaire. Part of the thing with 432 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: him though you look at his history, he really only 433 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: was a bell cow for one year at LSU. Like 434 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: all rookies, he's never played a season as long as 435 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: he's going to play this year, and they've been relying 436 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: on him pretty heavily over the first month of the season. 437 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: So this allows them to move Clyde Edwards Hilayery to 438 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit more of a situational role now, 439 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 1: which potentially could mean you get more out of him 440 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: in December and January and February. The other thing that 441 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: I'd mentioned quietly, their offensive line has been a little 442 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: bit of an issue. And if you look back when 443 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: they struggled against the forty nine ers early in the 444 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, when they struggled early against the Chargers, in 445 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: Week two, when they struggled against the Patriots, and then 446 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: when they lost last week. In all of those games, 447 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: you see at the line of scrimmage they're having some issues. 448 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: And so one way to mitigate some of those issues 449 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: is to add a great running back who can churn 450 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: out tough yards, can help you in pass protection, and 451 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: Leveyon Bell brings all of those things. So the hope 452 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: is you get a motivated player here, helps you preserve 453 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards a layer a little bit, and maybe helps 454 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: you ad mitigate what's been a little bit of an 455 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: issue on the offensive line. Why is there a mystery 456 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 1: around the Indianapolis Colts in their game this weekend. I 457 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,719 Speaker 1: don't think it's much of a mystery, Dan, I mean, 458 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: I think this is all sort of a result of 459 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: what happened with the Titans and the Patriots over the 460 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: last few weeks. And this is sort of where where 461 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 1: we are, and I think where we're going to be 462 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: for the rest of the season. Where when any team 463 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: has multiple positive tests over the course of a few days, 464 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: they're going to shut down the facility in the short term. 465 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think it would have happened three 466 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: or four weeks ago this way, but you know, based 467 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: on what happened on Tennessee, I think this is sort 468 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 1: of the way that everybody is going to move forward now. 469 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: And it's sort of interesting too. You know. You look 470 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: at it, and you know, a lot of people have 471 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: and rightfully have said, like, these teams should be acting 472 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 1: with the most caution they possibly can and not trying 473 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: to bowl through this. Well, now that they are, you're 474 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: hitting it's hard for me to turn around and say, okay, 475 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: like now we'll hit the panic button, Like this is 476 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 1: what you ask for if you wanted them to be 477 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: more cautious. I think they should be more cautious. Now 478 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: they are being cautious, and every time one of these 479 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: comes up, people want to hit the panic button. I 480 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 1: just think they're acting out of caution, and in all 481 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,719 Speaker 1: likelihood it'll it'll be a situation like the Falcons had 482 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: e later this week where they had two positive tests, 483 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: they shut down for a day, and they're back in 484 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: the building this morning. What's Odell Beckham Junior's mysterious illness. 485 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: I think it's a normal illness and you know, and 486 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 1: that's another thing, Dan, that we're going to be dealing with, 487 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: you know, you know, because the testing isn't perfect, and 488 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: I think there have been cases not just in football 489 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: but nationwide, you know, where people come down with it 490 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: and they consistently test negative. This is going to be 491 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: tricky for the NFL because every time somebody comes up 492 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: with us, comes down with the stomach bug, with the flu, 493 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: with a cold, um, you almost have to treat it 494 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: like it's COVID, even if the guy is testing negative. 495 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: And you know, you've been around the league for a 496 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: long time, Dan, I mean the stuff that guys fight 497 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: through in November and December on an annual basis, The 498 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,640 Speaker 1: things that teams do to manage the flu in their 499 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 1: locker room so guys can play. You know, it's like 500 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: the amount of guys that that are doing that every 501 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: single year. The public doesn't know this, but it's huge, 502 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: you know, And so this could add a very real 503 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 1: and from dynamic to the rest of the season, where 504 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: you know, guys just come down with normal sicknesses that 505 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: you would get any November or December, and now you 506 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 1: got to shelve them for a week or two because 507 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: you're worried that it could be COVID, even if the 508 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: guy is testing negative stuff on Gilmore, Cam Newton good 509 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, there Ago, And you know that's a 510 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: that's another interesting one because they you know, obviously I 511 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: think it's a story because those are two very huge names, 512 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 1: and the Patriots had a total of four tests over 513 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: that period. But yeah, I mean, I think we saw 514 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: the system at work, you know, over the last few 515 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: days where I don't think Cam would have played against 516 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: the Broncos had the game been held last weekend, and 517 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 1: now you know that game gets delayed and we have 518 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: sort of this inequity. Now the other side of it, 519 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 1: The interesting part about it is, you know it also 520 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: brought pot the Bronchos time to get Drew lockhealthy and 521 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: he had a shoulder injury, and so you know where 522 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, six days ago, we would have had I 523 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: think Rippin versus Hoyer or rip Than versus Stidham. Now 524 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: we're getting Newton versus Locke, which is another kind of 525 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: interesting quirk to the way all this works. You look 526 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: at some teams, obviously we have top heavy. There's some 527 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: really good teams, but we have a whole lot. There's 528 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: an abundance of bad teams right now, and we know 529 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: that that that prize at the end of the season 530 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: could be Trevor Lawrence. Here. At what point does a 531 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 1: team say it is smarter for us, like the Jets 532 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: or I mean, you know, the Giants maybe to a 533 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: lesser degree, But at what point do you think these 534 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: teams start to strategize of this is what's best for 535 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: us bigger picture long term, particularly if you're the Jets 536 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,239 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, I think our point of reference, Dan, 537 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: it's probably twenty eleven, you know, because I I mean, 538 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: I I mean, look like I've talked to scouts over 539 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 1: the last two years about Trevor Lawrence, and you know, 540 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: the consensus i'd say across the board is this is 541 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: a once in a decade type of prospect, you know, 542 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: And if you want to look over the last forty years, 543 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: John Elway, Manning, Andrew Luck, Trevor Lawrence, like, I think 544 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: that that's he's that good a prospect. And so if 545 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: you remember at the end of the twenty eleven season, 546 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: there were some questions about how the Colts were managing 547 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 1: their roster, and there was all kinds of buzz how 548 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: other teams were going to handle what the rams were 549 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: one of those you might remember. And so I don't 550 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: think it happens yet, but I think once we get 551 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: to a round Thanksgiving, it starts to crystallize what teams 552 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: are actually in the running for that last for that 553 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: first overall pick. Maybe we start to see some stuff. 554 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: As of right now. You know the thing that prevents 555 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: it from happening now is most bad teams have people 556 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: in positions of power that are fighting for their jobs. 557 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: So their mentality is I need to save my job. 558 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,479 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about what's happening in twenty twenty one, 559 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: but as we get later in the year, I certainly 560 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: think that that could become a factor. Well, you got 561 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: the trade deadline coming up in a couple of weeks. 562 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: Can you see the Jets trade Sam Darnold and would 563 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: there be a taker? Could the Falcons trade Matt Ryan? 564 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: Would there be a taker? Would the Lions trade Matthew Stafford? 565 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: Would there be a taker? I don't think so. My 566 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: guess is you wouldn't see one of the quarterbacks traded. 567 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: Let's start with the Jets and Donald, you know, you'd 568 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: be gambling big time that you wind up with a 569 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: number one overall pick. And I think that the Jets 570 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: trading Donald would have to be tied to having the 571 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: number one overall pick. So my guess is like Sam 572 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: Darnold probably winds up on the roster of the rest 573 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 1: of the year, and whatever they do with Sam Donald 574 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: depends on kind of rise on where they're picking in April, 575 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: and so you know, I think Sam Donald would have 576 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: a ton of value out there. I think baseline what 577 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen brought home for the Cardinals a couple of 578 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: years ago, which was a two and a five, But 579 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: I do think it could wind up being as much 580 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: as a late one, like say your Pittsburgh for example. 581 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: An executive brought this up to me the other day. 582 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: Do you flip the twenty fifth pick in the draft 583 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: for Sam Donald? Now you have your potential replacement for 584 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger. To me, that makes a lot of sense 585 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: because the Steelers may never be picking high enough to 586 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: get a Trevor Lawrence or a Trey Lancer justin field. 587 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: So I think Sam Donald will have some value. You know, 588 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: with Matt Ryan I think the Falcons would need to 589 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: be blown away. I know Arthur Blank and Rich McKay 590 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: would like to leave that up to whoever the next 591 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: coach in GMR. And then in Detroit, I think this is, 592 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: you know, again, sort of a situation where everybody there 593 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: is fighting for their job. So unless the plug gets 594 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: pulled on Bob Quinn or Matt Patricia, I think they're 595 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: counting on Matt Stafford to help them turn around and 596 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,719 Speaker 1: convinced the four Family to keep him. In twenty twenty one, 597 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: a couple of things. I was told prior to the 598 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: draft that the Colts were really interested in Jordan Love 599 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: and then the Packers went up and got him because 600 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: they knew that that was going to be the air 601 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: apparent to Philip Rivers. And then with the Lions that 602 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: they were really kicking the tires on Tua. And I 603 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: don't know if you heard that, but that was from 604 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, a source of mine who I trust. But yeah, 605 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: like that explains a little bit about green Bay worried 606 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: that maybe Indianapolis was going to swoop in and take 607 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: him and then would TWOA go to Detroit. And I 608 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: was told that that staff in Detroit was saying, look, 609 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: if we don't make this work this year, we're not 610 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,239 Speaker 1: going to have these jobs. And therefore they didn't want 611 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: to go in on Tua and then maybe try to 612 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: do something with Staffords. That sound right, Yeah, And I 613 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: can tell you, Dan, I can add to that. Detroit's 614 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: really kicked the tires on quarterbacks for the last two years. 615 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: In fact, if you guys remember Dave Gettleman saying there 616 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: were two teams he was worried about when he drafted 617 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones sixth instead of seventeenth overall. One of those teams, 618 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: I think it was out there was Washington. Jay Gruden 619 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: really liked Daniel Jones. I was told the other team 620 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: was Detroit. That the Giants had information that Detroit was 621 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: really interested in Daniel Jones as well, and so so 622 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: that they don't like Stafford. I think they really they 623 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: love Matthew Stafford personally and as a player. The injuries 624 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: have sort of piled up, and so that's caused them 625 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: to at least take a hard look at quarterbacks, not 626 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: just last year but over the last two years. And 627 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: what was the other one you mentioned there? I mentioned 628 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: Jordan Love to the Cold Love. I think the Colts. 629 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: So the way the Colts view view Philip Rivers right now, 630 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: he's buying them time. Chris Ballard was in Kansas City 631 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: with John Dorsey right um and Andy Reid, and they 632 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: had Alex Smith and the roster. And what Alex Smith 633 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: allowed them to do was I bought them time to 634 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: find the long term answer. And then when they saw 635 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: somebody they really liked, they got very aggressive and went 636 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 1: up and got him. And so the Colts are in 637 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: that sort of they've sort of created that window for 638 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: themselves where all right, like we got Philip Rivers for 639 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: right now, hopefully this buys us a little time to 640 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: find the right guy. I would not be surprised at all, Dan, 641 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: if the Colts are ultra aggressive and trying to move 642 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: up to go and get one of the top three. 643 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: Probably won't be Lawrence, but maybe a Fields or a 644 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: Lance when we get to when we get to April. Yeah, 645 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: and I still go back to you know, I was 646 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: told that the Saints were going to take Patrick Mahomes 647 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: if he was there, Like, isn't that amazing? Yep? That 648 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: was who? So so I you know they were picking 649 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: eleventh that year, that was who. Brett Veach, like Brett Veach, 650 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: had strong information that the Saints, Um, the Saints really 651 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: really loved him and we're planning to take him eleven. 652 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: So that was sort of the pressure point that the 653 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: Chiefs had to leap over the Saints, and they wound 654 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: up with the tenth pick. That was where they needed 655 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: to go to get Mahomes. And I could tell you 656 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 1: there are two quarterbacks that Sean Payton has stood on 657 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: the table for um in New Orleans over the last 658 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: five years or so. One was Patrick Mahomes. The other 659 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: one he really loved was Baker Mayfield. But you know, 660 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes would be third string because he'd be behind 661 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill on the depth chart in New Orleans. Stuff, right, 662 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: and maybe fighting with Jamis for a roster spot. Right, 663 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: Are you a Taysom Taysom Hill? Based on my eyes? Um? No, 664 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: based on my alb But my eyes are telling me 665 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: is there's not m We just haven't seen enough. Like 666 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: I just haven't seen enough. He's thirty years of age, Albert. 667 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: It's not like you and I know. And that's the 668 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: thing that's the thing I keep coming back to, is like, 669 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: shouldn't we be seeing more now? But then based on 670 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 1: my years, and you hear the white people in New 671 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: Orleans talk about him, and yeah, I mean, you know, 672 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: it's it's one of those things where it's like you 673 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: watch him and it's like, God, they're like, I don't know, 674 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: like anytime they they they're in a position where he 675 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: has to throw the ball, it's a complete crapshoot, right, 676 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: But then you look at the guy who's calling the 677 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 1: shots here, and it's Sean Payton, who knows more about 678 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: quarterbacks than Sean Payton, who's been better at coaching and 679 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: developing quarterbacks over the last you know, fifteen years in 680 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: the NFL, and Sean Payton, and so i'd always, you know, 681 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: defer to what Sean Payton thinks. And it's not just 682 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,439 Speaker 1: what I'm hearing. They gave him a lot of money, 683 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: you know, and so like I just like I look 684 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: at it and it's like, no, I'm not seeing it. 685 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,320 Speaker 1: Like I'm with everybody else on that. But shouldn't we 686 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: trust Sean Payton on this? I feel like he's earning 687 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt when it comes to that position. Yeah, No, 688 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: I feel like Jameis Winston is more the future at 689 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: that position than Taysom Hill. It could be could and 690 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: I look like, you know, I thought it was a 691 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 1: great move by Jamis to go there, like honestly, to 692 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 1: go rehabilitate your your your reputation. You can go to 693 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 1: a place where you're gonna get to learn both those guys, 694 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill and somebody down there mentioned this to me, 695 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, a couple of weeks ago. How you know, 696 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: Taysom and Jamis. I imagine the graduate level quarterbacking school 697 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: that those guys are in, getting to watch Drew Brees 698 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: work on a day to day basis. I mean, that's 699 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: phenomenal for both those guys, you know, So I think Jamis, 700 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, if there is something there, I think Jamis 701 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: went to the place that's going to find it. You know, 702 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 1: Sean Payton, you know, getting to work with Drew Brees, 703 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: like you'd have to think, like the different factors in 704 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 1: play in New Orleans would smoke out whatever sort of 705 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 1: players Jamis Winston can be over the next you know, 706 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: over the course of the twenty twenty season. Always great 707 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: to talk to you, Albert. We appreciate the time and 708 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: have a great weekend. Thank you. Awesome.

Corea's walk off over four 723 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: to three and there will be eight game to six. 724 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: That's a great moment and uh Carlo's career called it. 725 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,800 Speaker 1: Told Dusty Baker, I'm gonna have a walk off. Toddy 726 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: not allowed to talk about the Astros. They did well. 727 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 1: Talking more about the broadcast, it looked like he totally 728 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 1: misjudged that that had any chance of going out. If 729 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,919 Speaker 1: you heard the beginning of that call, there's a fly 730 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: ball to center. He I don't know if it sounded exactly. 731 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: You like that. I like the culture. It's like, why banished? 732 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: There's a drive from the beginning, there's a flyball to center. 733 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm miss judging this. Maybe no, but 734 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: that's what happens when you do play by play. You 735 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: like to build up to it. It's rare when you 736 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: just say that's gone, like you go and there's a drive. 737 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: It's my god, we'll sing here tomorrow from some via 738 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: games six. Yes, it's funny too. How many times play 739 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 1: by play guys go? I mean, are you kidding me? 740 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: Like every play that happens, I'll be a home runner 741 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: or whatever it is. I mean, are you kidding me? Well, 742 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: blame it on the wind for misjudging the call. That's 743 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: a flyball. The wind must have only pulled that out there. 744 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: For me, that looks like a pop up to short 745 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 1: crashing it, Todder, Can we play that again? Do we 746 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 1: have the uh the sound? Oh my god, the place 747 00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: of the day, God, play this is the play on 748 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 1: the day. Check this out.

Used problem with it was it was 752 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 1: not as slow as you're kind of pointing out. It 753 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: was to meeked of not having no clue. But there 754 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 1: was any chance of that big a gateway at home 755 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: run like Todd's version. Better, Yeah, fly balls field. That 756 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 1: should wrap up the how to walk off. He told 757 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: Dust that it Houston became the first team in postseason 758 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: history to hit both a lead off home run and 759 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,760 Speaker 1: a walk off home run.

Now we've 776 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: got a bone to pick with Paulie. Oh, don't ever 777 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:50,120 Speaker 1: put Bobby Cox in the same sentence with that bum 778 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 1: who manages the Dodgers. Bobby took the Braves in ninety 779 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 1: one from worse to first and kept them there for 780 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 1: fifteen years. Robberts has never done any of that. True. 781 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: I agree with him, though you can't. The city, greathound 782 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: Born there, love it, great barbecue, all right, great bar 783 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: Thank you all. Have a great weekend there. Bobby Cox, 784 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: don't mess with Bobby. I would never insult on you, 785 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: did I think? I think I was comparing his long 786 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 1: run of success but not winning a world series. Dave 787 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: Roberts is right at the point that Bobby Cox was 788 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 1: when he won his first title. So you are comparing them, Yeah, 789 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 1: actually quite a bit. Look Phill in Indiana, Phil, Hey, 790 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 1: Phil Dan always a pleasure. Hey, real quick I wanted 791 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: to get your thoughts with Kershaw so Dan in today's 792 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: environment where we judge athletes by how they perform when 793 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: the lights are shining brightest and not many rings and 794 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: so forth, Yep, do you think that should be a 795 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: criteria for the Hall of Fame. I'd love to get 796 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: your thoughts from that. Well. I do think it elevates 797 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: certain players. Pitchers, we don't hurt. We don't hold other 798 00:40:56,680 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: players accountable at no other position in baseball. Do you go, yeah, 799 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: but Barry Bonds or you know, Don Mattingly, or throw 800 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: in any Rod Carew Yeah, but what do they do 801 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: in the postseason? How many World Series titles pitchers? We do? 802 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: Because we've seen when it gets to the World Series, 803 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: a picture can dominate, he can take over, he can 804 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: win a game for you where I can pitch around 805 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 1: a player if I want to, you know, the picture itself. 806 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: You know the reason why Kurt Schilling is a you know, 807 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: a borderline Hall of Famer. I think he's a Hall 808 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: of Famer, but it's about his postseason. John Smoltz going 809 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: into the Hall of Fame, that was based in part 810 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 1: what he did in the postseason. There's certain pictures that 811 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: you single out because they were wonderful in the postseason. 812 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 1: And yes, that Will Kershaw's the first ballot Hall of Famer, 813 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: so it's not going to affect him. But if he 814 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,800 Speaker 1: didn't have the stats that he had then and he 815 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: was a borderline Hall of Famer, he probably wouldn't get 816 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: in because people would use the postseason against him. All Right, 817 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 1: Nick Saban is bound and determined to somehow coach this weekend. 818 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 1: We'll hear from Coach Saban. I don't know how he's 819 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: getting in the building, but he wants to know. Can 820 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 1: I get into the building? Why can't I? Coach? Can 821 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: he be in a suite by himself? How many tests 822 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 1: can he take before Saturday night where they would clear him. 823 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm curious about that, but it sounds like coach is 824 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:30,800 Speaker 1: really hell bent on trying to get into that stadium somehow, 825 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: some way. Phone number eight seven seven three d P 826 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 1: show email address DP at dan Patrick dot com. We'll 827 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: talk to Tom Verducci. He was there on the field 828 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: with the Dodgers game last night with the Braves. I 829 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: know we have the benefit of hindsight, but I thought 830 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: Kershall was a five innings and done and I know 831 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 1: that the Braves had a couple of hits and then 832 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 1: they blew it wide open. I just thought, if you 833 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: got five, that was great because then I might be 834 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,479 Speaker 1: able to use Kershaw again in relief at some point. 835 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 1: And that's why. And I think he was around eighty pitches, 836 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: so he was where I thought, Okay, I've gotten everything 837 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,839 Speaker 1: I can get out of him right now, and let's 838 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: just hope that my next two starters can get us 839 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 1: to a seventh game. But we'll talk to Bernucci about that. 840 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 1: Did we settle on a pole question in mclebbin we did? 841 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: I put up that question, if you hate the Astros, 842 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 1: when do you want to see them lose? I'll give 843 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 1: you the results after the breaking look at you, Look 844 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: at you? Cheasing radio host one hour of the Books, 845 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 1: Two more to go.
