You know, 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: when I think about it, if you're throwing the ball 29 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: and you're off a few inches or so, it's it's 30 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: not as bad as the air. This icy wall, This 31 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: isn't good. What is that feeling like though, when you're 32 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: getting some big air and you know that this might hurt? 33 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, It's like the scene in Talladega Nights where 34 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: he's like, oh, fly there, everything good. You know, like 35 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: everything slows down and you're just like, oh my goodness. 36 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: It's kind of like when you you hit a ball 37 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: or you you know, you you do that shot and 38 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: you just know you messed up right away, So you 39 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: have all that time in the air to think about, Wow, okay, 40 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: so I want to land on my back? Do I 41 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 1: want to Why did I get into this situation in 42 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: the first place, say, yeah, it's not good. Do you 43 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: teach yourself how to fall how to land? No? But 44 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: there is an art to it, I would say, because 45 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: a lot of people they just panic and I kind 46 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: of like assess the situation and go, Okay, well there's 47 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: there's kind of like a way to roll out of 48 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: it or slide or something. But you know, it is 49 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: it happens, You're gonna crash. Just like anything, there will 50 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: be mistakes, and you know you gotta kind of like 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: roll with those injuries and learn from them. We were 52 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: wondering if you've ever held a job? A job? Yeah, 53 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: so let's go around the room here. Who believes other 54 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: than snowboarding or skateboarding has Do you believe that Sean 55 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: White has held a regular job. I think he has. 56 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: I think he may have dabbled in like a little 57 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 1: something with children, like a little camp counselor thing from 58 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: the first little summer camp. Okay, and help the kids 59 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: out with skateboarding, pa, I want to say, yeah, brief 60 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: pizza delivery at a young age on a bicycle. Okay, 61 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: look at a very young age paper route that count? Okay, Sean, 62 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: of you held an actual John snowboard. I mean I 63 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: was sponsored at seven, so it was pretty much, what 64 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: are you making at age seven? How much money are 65 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: you making at age seven? Well? Yeah, I was amateurs, 66 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: so I was of course, I just had travel budget 67 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: and whatnot, which was pretty wild. But I started making 68 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: money when I was probably fourteen and I got my 69 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: first I guess, I don't know. I didn't even know 70 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: what this meant at the time. I was like a 71 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: million dollars deal was like, okay, well, I guess that's good. 72 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: We won that, now what you know, Like I didn't 73 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: really just like a number, and I had everything I 74 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: ever wanted, which was skateboards and snowboards. So how did 75 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: million dollars change your life at the time? Not much. 76 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: I mean I was just so thrilled. I mean, once 77 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: I turned you know, uh, sixteen, seventeen, I could get 78 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: a car that was pretty cool. And then you know, 79 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: I invested. My mom got me into like real estate 80 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: because I think they were worried about the car in 81 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: the cars that might come. So it kind of tied 82 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: a lot of my finances up. But honestly, it was 83 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: it was quite a burden in the beginning because you know, 84 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: it's fabulous to make it, you know, and then it's 85 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: just like what do you do? And it's not something 86 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: I really learned in school, and people do go to 87 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: school to learn exactly how to invest and do these things, 88 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: and so that was kind of like a hard thing 89 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: to learn. But but yeah, I mean it gave me 90 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: that comfort, I guess, so saying like, wow, at least 91 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: it's all falls way, you know, through this snowboarding, I 92 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: was able to put a roof over my head and 93 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: that's that's, you know, fantastic. So that was kind of 94 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: that why I ended up getting a home when I 95 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: was so young. What role did Tony Hawk play in 96 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: your career? Yeah, Tony Hawk, I mean he basically, you know, 97 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: was my hero. Every kid at my age was just 98 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 1: fascinated with him, and he would skate my local skate 99 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: park and I just assumed one day, had this grand 100 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 1: plan in my head that if I just skated well enough, 101 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: he might come talk to me. So it's too terrified 102 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: to approach him, and it worked. I skated in I 103 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: did new tricks every day, and he strolled by and 104 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: invited me to go to this skateboarding demo with him, 105 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: which sparked this friendship. And you know, he never really 106 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: sat me down and gave me specific advice, but he 107 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: was the only one that I knew that was going 108 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: through everything I was about to go through it. He 109 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: had its video game, people knew his name everywhere, and 110 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,559 Speaker 1: you know, but he was still a family man and 111 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: I got to just watch him interact with fans, how 112 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: he divided his time with his family and things, and 113 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: he really remained the same guy through all of it, 114 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: the success and the ups and downs, and so he 115 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: was just like that, that perfect person to be around. 116 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 1: When he fills out his taxes, I said, what do 117 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: you put down? And he said skateboarder. He does, Yeah, 118 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: I bet you don't put what do you put down 119 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: as your occupation? I guess i'd say athlete, but yeah, 120 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: snowboarder would probably nowadays they might be like, Okay, yeah, 121 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: it's pretty cool.

You have your final run and you couldn't 201 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: help be moved watching you be emotional. There could kind 202 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: of like have you seen yourself after you've had that 203 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: run and how emotional you were. I've watched a bit 204 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, I can't watch it without getting emotional, 205 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: you know you. I guess I was told when I 206 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: was a kid that this day would come, and hey, 207 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: it's the inevitable. You'll get to a point where you 208 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: either can't ride, or the tricks get too heavy, or 209 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: you something some sign will happen and you'll retire. And 210 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 1: just to be actually living that moment that I had 211 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: heard about and never really thought about until it really happened. 212 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: And yeah, it was moving. And a lot of the 213 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: competitors had lined up at the bottom and came and 214 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: gave me a hug and told me what it meant 215 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: to them that I was there competing with them, and 216 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: what I've meant to them for their careers. And I mean, 217 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: one of the guys was like, I haven't told you 218 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: this ever, but I my first board, I had your 219 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: pro model board, I wore your the jacket you wore. 220 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: I wanted to be you. It's just so wild, you know. 221 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: And and then they pulled up my family on the 222 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: big screen. They had a big, big TV there, and 223 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: just to see their faces and realize, you know, we've 224 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: all been in this kind of journey together for so 225 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: long in a sport that was very misunderstood. You know, 226 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 1: um snowboarding had no Olympics, it had the X teams, 227 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: had barely been started. It was very like we were 228 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: kind of throwing our lives away in people's opinions by 229 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: you know, putting so much into this sport. But I 230 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,599 Speaker 1: just believed and I knew that at the end of 231 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: the day. I enjoyed it so much that who cares, 232 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: But it turned into this amazing thing and just to 233 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: see where it's come from and how big of a 234 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: part I played in that was just wild. So I 235 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 1: got very emotional. I don't think I've cried as much 236 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: at an Olympics before. And I got emotional watching the 237 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: Dear Writer documentary at the very end when you guys 238 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: are doing the ceremonial basically goodbye with Jake Burton and uh, 239 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: I mean and his wife and watching that with his 240 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: with the kids and that that was pretty impactful there. 241 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: Yeah heavy, you know, like really the father of our 242 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: sport and his passing was just so heartbreaking for a 243 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: lot of us, you know, and it happened very suddenly. 244 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 1: So I know he had his certain health problems throughout 245 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: his life, but you know, this one came so quickly 246 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: and so abruptly, and you know, just remembering him, and 247 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: that was something I even mentioned in one of my 248 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: interviews out there was a seconds so bizarre to get 249 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: to the bottom because I've seen him after every Olympics, 250 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: you know, and taking our photo together and you know, 251 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: I think he would have been proud on how how 252 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: everything ended.

Now, Kevin O'Connell set to go to 337 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: the Vikings, although we talked to Mike Florio first hour. 338 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: If you're Kevin O'Connell, do you at least check in 339 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: with Sean McVeigh, just say, hey, coach, you still going 340 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: to be coached with the Rams, because I'm getting ready 341 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: to take this Vikings John. Now they do have Raheem Morris. 342 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 1: If Sean would leave, and I know there's a lot 343 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: of people saying, well, there's no way he's going to 344 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: do it, and maybe that's the case, and maybe it's 345 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 1: just a leverage play. It's hard to imagine the Aaron 346 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 1: Donald walking away. It feels like it's harder to imagine 347 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: Sean McVay leaving the coach being the coach of the Rams. 348 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, I kind of get it. Could I could 349 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: at least understand that from his perspective, Hey, I've done everything, 350 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: I got the ring, I'm one of the great defensive 351 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: players of all time, I'm a first ballot Hall of Famer, 352 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: I'm healthy. I walk away at thirty. Maybe, But Sean McVeigh, 353 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: if he thinks that in the booth is going to 354 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: fill that competitive void. Think again, because you know it 355 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 1: can replicate some things that you have in preparing for 356 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 1: a game. There's nothing like being in the moment deciding 357 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 1: how games are going to be played, game plans. A 358 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: couple of phone calls in here Gibbs in Virginia beach, Gibbs, 359 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,479 Speaker 1: thanks for holding what's on your mind today? Know how 360 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: are you doing? Uh that guy that called Sonny Jurgensen 361 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: Sony Jurgenson read a book, But that that was just 362 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: I know. Sometimes you just move on. You just move 363 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: on with things here and as we will. And Uh, 364 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 1: Dan not having a take, that's why you're respecting man 365 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 1: Will Gee's moving silence like goes on. Always have a take. 366 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: I think that's better. Um, Jim Gray coming out a 367 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: little hot with some snarkiness with Dan. This is not 368 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: Sports Center. I'm surprised you handled that well. I'm not surprised. 369 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: I'm glad you handled it well. Sorry, I'll rephrase. And 370 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: uh apropos of the Sean White interview. Uh, you were 371 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 1: talking about leagues in sport moving on from athletes, you know, 372 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: quickly or at least in time. I don't I don't 373 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: think Sans and me and you as athletes, Dan, we 374 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: don't players that actually change the culture of the game. 375 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm clearly biased being from Virginia Beach with 376 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: Ai and you know, Mike Vick in our backyard. But 377 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: players that actually change the culture of athletes always remember 378 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: that that never goes away. Yeah, but we move on 379 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: from it. We do, reminisce and thanks for the phone call, Gibs. Yeah, 380 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: we do. Mitt Alan Iverson is not in the Daily Conversation, 381 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,719 Speaker 1: Weekly Conversation, monthly conversation. But if somebody brings up his name, 382 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: it's like, yep, AI Steph Curry, We're gonna look back 383 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: and go, yep, Steph Curry changed the game. I like 384 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: how people they bang on Steph Curry. If guys start 385 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: shooting deep threes and they miss, like like all of 386 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: a sudden, it's Steph Curry's fault. Steph's like, hey, stop, 387 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: I didn't do it. You know, when I shoot, I 388 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: make them. These guys just take these shots, have no 389 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: business taking him. Yeah, boy, Dan, You're right, it's real. 390 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: I go to my daughter's basketball games and there's little 391 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: people who could barely get the ball to the rim, 392 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: but they're still trying to take three deep three. Everybody 393 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: wants to do it now. Everybody used to be everybody 394 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: wanted a dunk. Now you want to be able to 395 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: shoot a three. Veronica in San Antonio, Hi Veronica, Hi Dan, 396 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: I've got a Jim Hi, I've got a Jim Gray story. 397 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: Oh okay.

And I'm on the elevator and 402 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 1: Jim Gray gets on the elevator and I'm like Jim 403 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: Gray and he goes Hi, And I said, what are 404 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: you doing here? Because it's November and I'm trying to 405 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: figure out what a sports guy's doing in Phoenix in November. 406 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: And he says, I'm here for the prize fight. And 407 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: I said, what prize fight? And he said, well, I 408 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: guess there was a I think a Russian in a 409 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: big fight there at the where the Diamondbacks play. So 410 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: I said, a lot, never been to a prize fight. 411 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: And he reaches into his pocket and hands me two tickets, 412 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: so the prize fight. So I said thank you. I 413 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: got off the elevator and he was very very nice 414 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: to me. Awesome, Veronica, Well thank you. Yeah. I've known 415 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: Jim a long long time and when I was going 416 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 1: through my issues, Jim reached out on a daily basis. 417 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: There were a couple of people, and not that other 418 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: people didn't care. Dan Lebotard and Jim Gray and Jay 419 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: Glazer constant asking for updates, constant. None of the Dans did, 420 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: but we were here every day. Were just didn't ask 421 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: how you're feeling. I know. I think you guys were 422 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: afraid to ask me how I was feeling because you're 423 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: thinking he's not gonna be doing this job much longer. Yeah. 424 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: I think sometimes people do that, like because every time 425 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: someone sees you how you feeling, you've answered at eighteen 426 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: times that day. Yeah, you almost want to be the 427 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: opposite and say, like, this is a normal day, nothing's 428 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: going on here, and it's not insensitive. Maybe my case 429 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 1: it is, but like, uh, it's you're trying to do 430 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: like reverse psychology. Well, you would have thought Fritzie would 431 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: have asked me quite a few times. You would think, 432 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: I don't know why that opportunity If I'm sending Mike 433 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 1: Florio two o'clock in the morning Happy New Year. Yeah, yeah, 434 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: then I'm working with you twenty years. You think you 435 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: would have hurt me barely able to climb up the 436 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: back stairs in the old man cave. And I was like, 437 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: I had you know, we had Alan, our former IT guy. 438 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: I would have him spot me when I would walk 439 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: up the steps to start the morning. I just said, 440 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: can you go up behind me just in case I fall? 441 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: And he would take his shirt off and try to 442 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: carry me up the stairs. It was like a CrossFit. Yes, 443 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: it was like one of those romance novels where the 444 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 1: guy's got his shirt off and he's carrying the woman 445 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: up the steps. And I just said, al, I said, 446 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: can you just spot me just in case I fall here? 447 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: And he goes, I got you.

Well, 457 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,719 Speaker 1: that's I had raised my hand before you went into 458 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 1: the Dick Vitale story. Yeah, you called on me, and 459 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: you could have said something Dick fight. I'm sorry I 460 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: got something insensitive. That was a line I had prepared. 461 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: The timing is off because of when I was called up. Yeah, yeah, 462 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: you just you just ruined the last half hour of 463 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: the show pretty much. Then you just did that emotional 464 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: situation with Dick Fight Taal, and I had a joke 465 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: that should have been said about a minute and a 466 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: half ago.

When I first started 481 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: working on your show, you used to have Dick Vitel 482 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: on all the time. I and my role at ESPN 483 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: never spoke to Dick Vitell. And you told me call 484 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: him up, he's gonna be on today, and you gave 485 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: me the number, and all of a sudden, I call 486 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: the phone.

And his voice 491 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: was just muted the moment you introduced him, Danny P. 492 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: We're back.

I'm alive, from de Trey Michigan. I'm 514 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: also known that Super Rocida as well, because this is 515 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: the super perspective. Okay, Now, I wanted to talk coaches 516 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: that needed to be fired and then Tom Brady making 517 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: his comeback, and I'm going to tie all of this 518 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: in together, all right. I want to hear this from 519 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: top to bottom. We need to analyze this whole situation 520 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: about this coach that needs to be fired, which is 521 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: Bruce Arians, for what he did. From top to bottom. 522 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: You get rid of your top receiver right before the 523 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: playoffs over some dilly dally over something. He just took 524 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: off his jersey and threw it away whatever. Whatever. Those 525 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: were Antonio Brown points that were left out on the 526 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: field right there when they played the Rams, and they 527 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: could have possibly been in the Super Bowl. But boost 528 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: Arians decides very hundred hit hatcho. Here, I'm gonna do 529 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: what I want to do, and I'm just gonna get 530 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: littered this guy over little to nothing. I think he 531 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: needs to be fired. I think the people in Tampa 532 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: Bay should be furious. And here's my thing, Tom Brady 533 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 1: should have stood up. And by Tom Brady not standing up, 534 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: I think Tom Brady's gonna look at this situation, say, 535 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: you know what, I could have stood up for this man, 536 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: and I could have been in the Super Bowl. I 537 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: could have made sure Antonio Brown was not removed from 538 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: the team. Okay, okay, okay, waitmen, so Tom Brady should 539 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: stand up for Antonio Brown, Then what about all the 540 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: other times when Tom Brady stood up for Antonio Brown 541 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: and didn't. Antonio Brown powered on the sidelines and then 542 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: check himself out of the game. And plus he wasn't 543 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: going to be healthy enough to play anymore because of 544 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: the ankle injury. They got the most out of Antonio Brown. 545 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: He wasn't gonna be able to help them. He couldn't 546 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: play because of his injured ankle. That's not true, Yes, 547 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: it's not. He played. He played three quarters for the Jets, right, 548 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: he played three quarters against the Jets. He said, okay, 549 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 1: I'm done for this game, so therefore you rest him 550 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: for the playoffs. And once he could have did another 551 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: three quarters against the Rams and it could have won. 552 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: He didn't say that. He didn't say, look, I'm totally 553 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: done for the whole season. He said he was done 554 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: for that game. He went to go see a doctor. 555 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: He went to go see the Brooklyn Nets doctor. Right 556 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: after that, he stayed in New York to gost have 557 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: his ankle checked out. He refused to enter a game. 558 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: He stripped off his jersey here and Tom is supposed 559 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: to defend that he pouted. He wasn't getting his targets. 560 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: His usefulness is it was done in Tampa. They got 561 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 1: as much as they could get out of him. Wonderful talent. 562 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: But Tom went to bat for Antonio Brown more than 563 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: anybody in his career. I mean, where the hell have 564 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: you been? You're a month late on this story. Longer 565 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: than that, I've been a hole for four weeks. Yeah, 566 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: I mean, damn, I don't know how much he could 567 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: have helped you, but he pounded, didn't one end? I 568 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: don't We're done with this topic. I don't want this 569 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:29,959 Speaker 1: topic anymore. Tonio Brown. What is somebody gonna call up 570 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: about Baker Mayfield now and just say that they should 571 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: have sat him down? Sean and Oregon? Hey, Sean, what's 572 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: on your mind today? Hey? I want to say that 573 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: it's glad to see Marvin getting some love. And you know, 574 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: Marvin's awesome, so it's it's it's good to hear his voice, 575 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: and we want to hear his opinion more. Okay, And 576 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: I also want to say, Fritzie, you know, I want 577 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: to say, you know, he gets with respect for using 578 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: his own commun material. You know, It's like when you 579 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: go to see a musician, you don't want to see 580 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: him play cover tunes. You want to see so use 581 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: their own material. So I've got respect for him. And 582 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: I want to say, way to go, three piece, keep 583 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: it up? All right? All right? Well, I will say 584 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: this though Mike Trout has a hitting coach, should Mike 585 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: Trout not have a hitting coach? Batting coach? Well, the 586 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 1: hitting coach give me a couple of tips. Okay, it 587 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: feels like they do more than that. They review video. 588 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: But but you know, Shohyotani has a pitching coach. Is 589 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: he supposed to listen to that? Is he supposed to 590 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: take get that information? I guess you take you take 591 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: that information in, but ultimately you're gonna do what you 592 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: want to do, whatever you're comfortable with it to Platon, Yeah, see, 593 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: it feels a little more though, like Mike Trout has 594 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: a hitting coach, and then the hitting coach also went 595 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: and pitched for him. Yeah, I mean like, if Todd 596 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: had people writing his jokes for him, then it's like, well, 597 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: you didn't really do it, You're just gonna go up 598 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: there and say it. Yeah, but he had to, he 599 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: had to deliver it himself. Yeah, that'd be like somebody's saying, 600 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you all this information. Now you go 601 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: up to the plate and you hit. I'm asking Sandler 602 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 1: and David Spade and Rob Schneider to help Todd write 603 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: some jokes. I think if Todd wrote a bunch of 604 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: jokes and then they edited them, be like, Okay, now 605 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: this is fun, that that really works. But if but 606 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: Todd doesn't write anything down, he doesn't write his jokes down. 607 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: I probably should do that, because I don't. I don't. 608 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm done with this too. I'm done with stand up 609 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: with you and Antonio Brown, all right. I tried to 610 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: try to help you. No, tried to help you. Tried 611 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: to Sandler said he would help you. I wanted you 612 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: to succeed. I think you have the ability to deliver jokes. 613 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: You may not have the ability to write them, but 614 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: you have the ability to deliver them. It's like Craig Kilborn. 615 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: Kilborn was great at delivering He may not have written it, 616 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: but he was great at delivering it. That's what I 617 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: thought you could do. You can deliver a joke. Kevin 618 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: Hard has people who write jokes for Johnny Carson. His 619 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: whole career was people writing jokes for him. David Letterman 620 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: had all these people from Harvard who were helping him 621 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 1: write his skits, his jokes. They can't deliver it the 622 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: way Dave did or Johnny Carson did. That's all just 623 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: trying to point those things out. If you wanted to 624 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: do it, and you wanted to be successful at it, 625 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 1: I think you could do that. I appreciate that. Thank you, toy. Yeah. See, 626 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,919 Speaker 1: we're sort of flirting with the idea of Las Vegas. Yeah, 627 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: we're going out maybe to Las Vegas. I'm thinking March 628 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: Madness we go out there. Wouldn't it be nice if 629 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: you did a little stand up set there? Well they 630 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: have a America's got talent live in Las Vegas. Oh boy, 631 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: Like I'm just throwing out ideas. You're not going to Hollywood. Yes, 632 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 1: I'll tell you in all seriousness, sir, Fritzie's Valley Girl 633 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 1: bit late in Super Bowl it crushed and he didn't 634 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 1: write it. He just riffed. If he took the tape 635 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: of that, sat down for an hour and wrote some 636 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: some finality to the bit, it would crush, because it 637 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: crushed on air last week. And if it just had 638 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: a little organization, not even a full written skid, it 639 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: would do very well anywhere. I agree. I thought that 640 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: it was one of the highlights of our Super Bowl week, 641 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: Fritzie's Valley Girl when we met the women at Big Deans. 642 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: So if you you cut that down and look at 643 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: it and you go, okay, if I narrow this down 644 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: a little bit, transcribe it a little bit, tighten it 645 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: up a little bit, there could be pretty funny. I'm 646 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: probably not gonna do that, though, I be too worried 647 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 1: about the final four guests and stuff like that. Wait, 648 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 1: is that your impersonation of them? It's funny and it's 649 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: not funny. And yeah that's too Yeah that wasn't funny 650 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: the moment I call it funny, he has no, no, not, 651 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: it's not funny. This is what I do. I ruined 652 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: things to just tank that because of you, Paul No 653 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 1: making me look bad.

You're not gonna play this year, And then 678 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: you start to look at a bigger picture here at 679 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: that size, the style of play is that gonna be 680 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: there the rest of his career? And hopefully it won't be. 681 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: But I wouldn't. I wouldn't bet on Ace and Charlotte 682 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: is back? Hey Ace?

My first name is 684 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: actually Douglas, so I'm Douglass as okay. And number number 685 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 1: two the I heard last week. I thought it was 686 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,359 Speaker 1: your show. But I heard that Gronk said he wanted 687 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: to play with Burrow in Cincinnati. Have you heard that? No? 688 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: I did not, he did you guys read anything on 689 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: Gronk wanting to play and is he under con track 690 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: with the Buccaneers. Not be curious about that. It's it's 691 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,959 Speaker 1: not like you go, hey, Tom laugh, So I'm gonna 692 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,240 Speaker 1: go play someplace else. I mean, if he's a free agent, 693 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 1: then go get him. But I never heard that he 694 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 1: would he wanted to play with Joe Burrow. Brian in California. Hey, Brian, 695 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: what's on your mind? How you doing many? This is 696 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:26,720 Speaker 1: a hypothetical and a little reality for coach Pete Okay, 697 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: you imagine here he is in the NFL, he chops 698 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: it up, comes to USC, has to chop it up again, 699 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: resurrects them, has to lead in less than authentic circumstances, 700 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 1: go to the Seahawks, has to chop it up again. 701 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: Here's the hypothetical. He steps out of the coaching job 702 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: into the president's office and he hires Sean Payton. Boom. 703 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: Russ gets his coach offensive minded and Sean Payton gets 704 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: his QB. What do you think? I don't know enough 705 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: about the inner workings of the Seahawks to say that. 706 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to speculate on something that I don't 707 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: have any knowledge of. I think Sean Payton wants to 708 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: explore TV. I don't I think Pete Carroll still wants 709 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: to coach. I don't know if Russ still wants to 710 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: stay in Seattle. Sumo in Missouri, Hey, Sumo. Hey, So 711 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: I was watching an older interview a couple of years 712 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 1: back that you did of Joe Burrow. He had just 713 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: won national championship in Heisman all that, Yeah, and he 714 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,840 Speaker 1: had him been drafted. Yeah, we were talking about possibly 715 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: going to the Bengals. I was just wondering what your 716 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: impression of him was like, could you get a sense 717 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 1: that he was going to end up being this Joe 718 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: cool guy that we get now or what was your 719 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: thoughts about him? Well, it's easy for me to look 720 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,720 Speaker 1: back now and say, Wow, he had the it factor. 721 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 1: If I if I look at the first year he 722 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 1: had at LSU, and I look at the second year 723 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: when he had maybe the greatest season of college quarterback 724 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 1: has ever had and that team won the national title, 725 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: I have to put in the previous year with it 726 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: and to try to balance it out. I thought that 727 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: he had so much confidence and I didn't know what 728 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,319 Speaker 1: he did well. It just felt like he did He 729 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,720 Speaker 1: did everything you wanted him to do whenever he needed 730 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,799 Speaker 1: to do it, and there was just something about it 731 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: that he made the right decisions. That's all I was noticing. 732 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: I didn't say, boy's got arm strength, He's the next 733 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: Joe Montana. I just loved his confidence. And even when 734 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: I met with him in person at the Super Bowl 735 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: in Miami. The one thing I was always kind of 736 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: taken from that interview and even the conversation is his confidence. 737 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: He had unbelievable confidence. And even going into Cincinnati didn't 738 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 1: have a great offensive line and they were throwing the ball, 739 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: and then he got injured, and I'm thinking trying to 740 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 1: come back from that, even a veteran trying to come 741 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: back from that, and he had the confidence to come 742 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:58,320 Speaker 1: back from that, the ability to run, and he's not afraid, 743 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 1: not afraid in the moment, And I just that was 744 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: the only thing I took away from it. Like I 745 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: thought Justin Herbert had more talent, but I felt Joe 746 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: Burrow was ready to play right away. It turns out 747 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,959 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert was ready to play right away. Let's see 748 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 1: this day in sports history Pawling.
