Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: We did it, We did it. We made it to
Speaker 2: a Friday. It's a meat Friday at that Philly cheese
Speaker 2: steaks and beer battered fries coming out of the tragger
Speaker 2: who has it better than we do, No, lot, I
Speaker 2: don't know why we didn't do some Kansas City ribs here.
Speaker 2: Maybe there's some favoritism going on with Tyler who not
Speaker 2: only answers the phones, takes care of my dog, but
Speaker 2: also cooks meat Friday. So Philly cheese steaks and beer
Speaker 2: battered fries.
Speaker 3: Yes, Paul, I hesitated to jump in so early, Dan,
Speaker 3: But objectively, as journalists, we should have some barbecue from
Speaker 3: Kansas City.
Speaker 2: Then, yeah, you're the boss. Yep, I'm gonna have to uh,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to talk to the chef. Actually he's
Speaker 2: a cook, he's not a chef, but he's got to
Speaker 2: be an objective, objective cook. Yeah, yeah, Okay, Well we're
Speaker 2: already started with controversy here on this eight seven seven
Speaker 2: three DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot com, Twitter handle
Speaker 2: at DP show Play the day, poll question stat of
Speaker 2: the Day. Good morning, if you're watching on Peacock, our
Speaker 2: streaming partner, one of our favorites, Jim Gaffigan, comedian. We'll
Speaker 2: join us a little bit later on. We'll talk about
Speaker 2: the NBA with a few things like the All Star snubs. Please,
Speaker 2: if you're going to complain about somebody, tell me who
Speaker 2: you're taking off the roster. Okay, it's not unlimited where
Speaker 2: you have twenty two people on the West and you
Speaker 2: know nineteen on the East. It's twelve and twelve. And
Speaker 2: if somebody got snubbed, tell me who you're taking off.
Speaker 2: I already know who I would put on and who
Speaker 2: I would take off. But I'll have that for you.
Speaker 2: Coming up a little bit, we got a poll question.
Speaker 2: We have the Minister of Humor, Fritzie. We have Dylan
Speaker 2: filling in for Seaton, Marvin Paulie upfront and yours. Truly,
Speaker 2: a lot of it has been made of the Chiefs.
Speaker 2: They're villains, and I keep thinking, are they villains? You know,
Speaker 2: when you talk about a villain, I think about the
Speaker 2: Bad Boys, the Pistons, like they were villains, but they
Speaker 2: embraced it here. You know, there's certain wrestlers who like
Speaker 2: being the villain. But you know, what is a villain.
Speaker 2: I have the definition, but I want you to hear
Speaker 2: from Travis Kelsey was on his podcast with his brother
Speaker 2: and talking about embracing being a villain in the super Bowl.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 4: At one point, at one point in time, you know,
Speaker 4: it wasn't that and.
Speaker 2: You were the sener.
Speaker 5: You guys are the dollars in the NFL.
Speaker 4: I was the do you feel bad for him? Guys,
Speaker 4: and you're now the he I'm I'm just I'm enjoying.
Speaker 4: I'm enjoying doing this with the guys together, the guys
Speaker 4: that we have in there, because it's it's like it
Speaker 4: just makes us even more of a family.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's the New Heights podcast with the brothers. A
Speaker 2: villain is a character person who is intentionally evil or
Speaker 2: harmful to others. Villains can be fictional or based on
Speaker 2: real people. So the intentional part of that, are they
Speaker 2: intentionally evil? Are they intentionally good? Or great? I think
Speaker 2: they came along at a time where were like, yeah,
Speaker 2: somebody other than the Patriots, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: it's like, now we're waiting for somebody other than the
Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs. But I mean Patrick Mahomes not a villain, Kelsey,
Speaker 2: Andy Reid, Chris Jones. I don't get it. I think
Speaker 2: we're tired of the story. And that's natural for sports fans.
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, somebody else. Boy, we're really rooting for Buffalo,
Speaker 2: or we're rooting against Kansas City because we want somebody
Speaker 2: else in there. Buffalo would be great, you know, Baltimore
Speaker 2: would be great. We want somebody else in there. This
Speaker 2: happens with dynasties. We get tired, same stories, same people.
Speaker 2: Everybody's doing commercials. It's a big deal. Every game is
Speaker 2: the nationally televised game. It's the big one on Sunday
Speaker 2: night or Sunday afternoon on Fox or CBS. So we're
Speaker 2: so familiar with this story that that's why we wanted
Speaker 2: something else. Even the Eagles. You know, we had them
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl a couple of years ago. We're
Speaker 2: very familiar with the Eagles. Now you got Saquon Barkley, Okay,
Speaker 2: you can root for them. And I never thought I
Speaker 2: would hear, you know, the national audience saying yeah, I
Speaker 2: guess I'll root for the Eagles. You know, it's like
Speaker 2: Notre Dame or Duke Basketball. Uh, somebody other than them.
Speaker 2: Then Notre Dame became likable. This year. It's like, oh,
Speaker 2: you know, there's a national audience that's going, hey, I
Speaker 2: kind of like Notre Dame this year. So the this
Speaker 2: I'm not buying. But Kansas City should embrace it because
Speaker 2: it's there, it's real, and you know, fans want to
Speaker 2: see Kansas City. I don't know if they want to
Speaker 2: see the Eagles win as much as they want to
Speaker 2: see Kansas City lose. They want to see what happens
Speaker 2: with Travis Kelcey, he's walking off the field, Taylor Swift,
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid. But I look at this as
Speaker 2: extremely skilled football, all three phases. They just do it
Speaker 2: right and I can't argue about that. I can't complain
Speaker 2: about that. Do they get calls? Is the perception they're
Speaker 2: getting calls? Yes, but it's not their fault. You know,
Speaker 2: if they take advantage of the rules, then change the rules.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 2: The Patriots you could say, were villains because they cheated
Speaker 2: and they were involved in a couple of nefarious situations there.
Speaker 2: Their head coach wasn't likable. Brady we embraced because it
Speaker 2: was an underdog story. Julian Edelman Underdogs like they had
Speaker 2: so many underdog stories, but then we got tired of them,
Speaker 2: and then they're cheating, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: you hated to see Brady's face because the you know,
Speaker 2: the good looking quarterback, got the cheerleader and won the championship.
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick always grumpy even if he won. You know,
Speaker 2: we got tired of all of that. But I view
Speaker 2: them as villains, not the Kansas City chief So if
Speaker 2: it helps the Chiefs and Travis Kelcey and you embrace that,
Speaker 2: then great. But I don't look at them as villains.
Speaker 2: I look at them as one of the great teams
Speaker 2: of all time with what they've done this run. Mahomes
Speaker 2: and what he's done historical Andy Reid, what he's done
Speaker 2: to maybe be He's the guy who couldn't win the
Speaker 2: big game. Remember, couldn't win the big game, and then
Speaker 2: he goes to Kansas City. Uh great, yeah, maybe you'll
Speaker 2: get to a conference title game. He was good doing
Speaker 2: that in Philadelphia. Now we're looking at him. Man, guy's
Speaker 2: an offensive genius. He should be up there with Shula, Belichick, Lombard,
Speaker 2: I mean, all the greats, and rightfully so. And Mahomes
Speaker 2: he's going to be the greatest quarterback of all time
Speaker 2: probably when it's all said and done. What did he
Speaker 2: do wrong exactly? I don't know what he did wrong.
Speaker 2: I mean, is he cocky? Does he get calls? Okay?
Speaker 2: That doesn't make him a villain? Now, that can make
Speaker 2: you root against them because they get the calls. You know,
Speaker 2: Brady got called. The Greats get calls, or the perception
Speaker 2: is they got a call, and they're always on national TV,
Speaker 2: so you're seeing all this. They don't play one o'clock games,
Speaker 2: not very often. Every game is magnified. Every game Monday
Speaker 2: is a referendum on that game and that team.
Speaker 7: Yes, Marvin, I think for Mahomes, I think it's the
Speaker 7: people around Patrick Mahomes that makes people root against him.
Speaker 7: It's not even Patrick Mahomes himself, it's the people around him.
Speaker 7: I'll just leave it at that.
Speaker 2: Maybe referencing family members there maybe yeah, yeah, But that
Speaker 2: doesn't make him a villain. That doesn't make the Chiefs
Speaker 2: a villain. But I would say most people, if you're
Speaker 2: not an Eagles fan or a Chiefs fan, you're rooting
Speaker 2: against the Chiefs and the Super Bowl. It probably if
Speaker 2: you did a football map, I would guess that most
Speaker 2: of the states would be rooting maybe not for the Eagles,
Speaker 2: but against the Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah, pulling.
Speaker 3: I think your point was right when you explain what
Speaker 3: villain means intentional, the word intentional. If you go back
Speaker 3: to Belichick, especially the last six or seven years of
Speaker 3: that run, he was difficult with the media on purpose,
Speaker 3: and it seemed like he got more difficult. And it's
Speaker 3: us against the world, and I'm going to give you
Speaker 3: a hard time because I've got a handful of rings
Speaker 3: and he could get away with it. So and also
Speaker 3: the cheating accusations, some real, some not with the Patriots,
Speaker 3: that's true.
Speaker 2: Villainin a character in a story who opposes the hero.
Speaker 2: A person who is guilty of or likely to commit
Speaker 2: a crime. A person who is cruel or evil. A
Speaker 2: person who is blame for a particular evil. Certain villains
Speaker 2: Hannibal Lecter, Norman Bates, Darth Vader, the Wicked Witch of
Speaker 2: the West, the Wicked Witch of the AFC West, Bill
Speaker 2: Lame Beer h But hey, I don't blame you, embrace it.
Speaker 2: You might as well. Hey, all right now, they can't
Speaker 2: say nobody thought we would be here. You know, it's
Speaker 2: not one of those like the villains are favorites as
Speaker 2: far as you're not an underdog story, because it's hard
Speaker 2: to hate a villain who's an underdog.
Speaker 8: Yes, yes, Neil, I think they've also been preseason betting
Speaker 8: favorites for like six years in a round.
Speaker 2: Yes. Yes, this isn't one of those oh my gosh,
Speaker 2: heartwarming stories. It's not. But when you think about it,
Speaker 2: Mahomes was nobody in college. Kelsey was a former quarterback.
Speaker 2: He played at Cincinnati. I mean came out of nowhere.
Speaker 2: Nobody knows where Chris Jones went to college. I mean
Speaker 2: that's why when you start to look at Isaiah Pacheco
Speaker 2: went to Rutger, Tyreek Hill. Now you know, you could
Speaker 2: maybe not like Tyreek Hill, but they traded him away
Speaker 2: and they did a great job finding Tyreek Hill. So
Speaker 2: I look at that front office unbelievable, plug and play unbelievable.
Speaker 2: And the constant is your GM, your coach, and your
Speaker 2: quarterback and not in that order. It should be a
Speaker 2: story that we embrace, or at least we respect. But
Speaker 2: it's almost like, oh God, this is going to happen
Speaker 2: on Super Bowl Sunday. There'll be that moment where Oh god,
Speaker 2: they get all the calls. It's gonna happen, and I
Speaker 2: hate when it happens because then we lose sight even
Speaker 2: leading up to the Super Bowl. This is going to
Speaker 2: be a big storyline next week. Oh the villains people
Speaker 2: hate us, that's okay, or people saying, oh, they get
Speaker 2: all the calls? Are they going to change the rules
Speaker 2: in the off season, Adam Schefter joins us, now shifty,
Speaker 2: are they going to change the rules? Yes, help is
Speaker 2: on the way, Like that's what it's going to be
Speaker 2: instead of these are two great teams, really really well run.
Speaker 2: When you look at the GMS, the talent, both sides
Speaker 2: of the ball. Yetto Chiefs are one and a half
Speaker 2: point favorite. I mean, this is what you want. You
Speaker 2: want a super Bowl? You know I used to cover
Speaker 2: the Super Bowls when it would be how badly is
Speaker 2: the AFC going to lose? How badly are the Broncos
Speaker 2: going to lose? Oh it's fifty five to ten? You
Speaker 2: want all right, sorry, DoD You want competition, you want
Speaker 2: a great game, and there's so many things at stake.
Speaker 2: What would a Super Bowl do for? Jalen Hurts, Nick Sirianni,
Speaker 2: Saquon Barklay. We'll talk about that next hour. Add another
Speaker 2: super Bowl to Andy Reid's resume or Patrick mahomes resume.
Speaker 2: Does Kelsey retire after a Super Bowl win? Like, there's
Speaker 2: a lot of great storylines there, and you know, there
Speaker 2: are times when I can be a cynic, but you know,
Speaker 2: I still love covering sports. I don't. I hate being
Speaker 2: the Oh God, they get all the calls. That's not fair.
Speaker 2: They cheat, whatever it might be. They spend more money
Speaker 2: than any But then you lose sight of what we
Speaker 2: grew up wanting and we took for granted. There weren't
Speaker 2: controversies when we were growing up. I don't know if
Speaker 2: anybody said kind of I hate the Packers in the
Speaker 2: late sixties, You're like, damn, they're good Kansas City man.
Speaker 2: They got a weird huddle with Lenny Dawson and Hanks Traham,
Speaker 2: But I like him. Joe Namath, Like, that's what you
Speaker 2: grow up with. I'm okay with a you know, a
Speaker 2: guy or a team that you want to beat that
Speaker 2: they're the team to beat. I'm okay. You know, I
Speaker 2: grew up a UCLA fan and everybody wanted to beat Ucla.
Speaker 2: But I like the fact that there was that one
Speaker 2: team you wanted to beat. The Cowboys for a while,
Speaker 2: the Packers for a while, the Steelers for a while,
Speaker 2: the Niners for a while. Man, We're so lucky to
Speaker 2: have those years where you saw greatness, true greatness.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Pauline, I want to ask you a back of
Speaker 3: the day question before we break. When Joe Namath was
Speaker 3: going to win the Super Bowl or getting ready to
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl, was he beloved embraced by the
Speaker 3: national sports fans or was he like, oh, this cocky
Speaker 3: guy from this upstart league.
Speaker 2: I think that since they were eighteen point underdogs, that
Speaker 2: there was a like a snickering curiosity of damn, can't
Speaker 2: believe he guaranteed they were going to beat the Colts.
Speaker 2: And you know, he had long hair, so he looked
Speaker 2: like he was, you know, the fifth Beatle. But when
Speaker 2: you watched him play at white shoes and then if
Speaker 2: he was not able to play, had this big fur
Speaker 2: white fur coat on, and so there was a curiosity.
Speaker 2: But I don't know if he was warmly embraced. I
Speaker 2: think because I grew up as an AFC AFL fan,
Speaker 2: I should say an AFL fan, so I loved that
Speaker 2: they were wide open football. The NFL was it was
Speaker 2: like three yards here and here's a suite for four
Speaker 2: yards and there's a seven yard touchdown. Like it was boring.
Speaker 2: The AFL it was awesome. It was like the ABA.
Speaker 2: It was fun. And then you know, the same thing
Speaker 2: happened in the NBA. The NBA looked at the ABA
Speaker 2: and go, man, they're doing some fun things. The NFL
Speaker 2: did that with the AFL. Bring those teams in. They're
Speaker 2: having fun. The Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, the Jets. So
Speaker 2: you know, this just goes along. You know, this is history.
Speaker 2: Every few years it's that guy or that team or both.
Speaker 2: And that's what's to me great about this. It's why
Speaker 2: I still love coming to work every day. You have
Speaker 2: these stories, they're fun. Embrace them. All right, we'll come back.
Speaker 2: We'll get to phone calls. People get fired up about
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. If you don't like the Chiefs, just tell
Speaker 2: me why. I'd just be curious. What is it that
Speaker 2: you don't like about them? We'll get to those phone calls.

Speaker 2: sitting in for Seaton and poll question for hour one
Speaker 2: is going to be one. It's going to be the chiefs.
Speaker 8: Are villains generally likable or neither?
Speaker 2: Just overcovered because I'll let Paul, Yeah, I think they're
Speaker 2: over covered. I don't think there's anything that you'd really dislike.
Speaker 2: And if you don't like the Taylor Swift is there,
Speaker 2: blame the networks for showing her. She doesn't say hey,
Speaker 2: I'll show up, but hey, I have to have at
Speaker 2: least five on screen appearances. I think the over under
Speaker 2: for her at the Super Bowl is five and a
Speaker 2: half appearances on screen. You know, the prop bets came
Speaker 2: out yesterday. We had some of those on the Gambling
Speaker 2: podcast and it's available a dan Patrick dot com. We'll
Speaker 2: have some of those prop bets, but I think over
Speaker 2: under five and a half appearances for Taylor Swift, I'm
Speaker 2: going to take the over because if he scores, you
Speaker 2: know that she's going to be on TV. If they win,
Speaker 2: she'll be on TV. If they're losing something that Travis
Speaker 2: drops a ball, then she might be on TV. But
Speaker 2: once again, you can blame Fox or CBS or NBC
Speaker 2: whenever they show them, that's not her fault. If they show,
Speaker 2: you know, Britney mahomes Patrick's wife, not Patrick doesn't say hey,
Speaker 2: by the way, can you give some love to my wife?
Speaker 2: I mean we kind of focus on on Taylor a
Speaker 2: little too much. It doesn't happen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a very unique prop bet though, because what
Speaker 3: if they show Taylor Swift before kickoff?
Speaker 2: Does that count as one of the five? Well, I
Speaker 2: don't know, he got it. I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 2: I just bring up the prop bets. I don't bet.
Speaker 2: I don't gamble. I gambled on the podcast by having
Speaker 2: a podcast that has Shayan Irving, Dylan and Bad Larry
Speaker 2: and Sammy Pe. By the way, Sammy p he's a
Speaker 2: professional gambler, has his own show. He pulls out a
Speaker 2: ticket from August of this year that he bet on
Speaker 2: and the bet was Saquon Barkley would be the offensive
Speaker 2: player of the year. Wow. So the bet, the ticket
Speaker 2: if he is the offensive player of the year is
Speaker 2: worth two thousand dollars. So he said, I'm giving it
Speaker 2: to the guys on the Gambling podcast and Dylan is there.
Speaker 2: Ray is the producer, and I go, that's a that's
Speaker 2: quite a gift. Yeah, Dyl.
Speaker 8: Well there is a catch though, and that it's a
Speaker 8: physical ticket from I think the super Book in Vegas.
Speaker 2: So in order to cash it, we have to go there.
Speaker 2: So well, we'll be down a lot more than.
Speaker 11: You you will.
Speaker 2: You will, yes, you will. That what a call, though,
Speaker 2: You'll come back having lost money instead of going out
Speaker 2: to get money. But that's a that's an unbelievable call.
Speaker 2: He also had the Eagles and the Chiefs in the
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, but he says he takes the Chiefs every
Speaker 2: year to be in the Super Bowl because well, why
Speaker 2: not print money. Seaton is back on the road with Maco.
Speaker 2: Go to Danpatrick dot com follow the road to New Orleans.
Speaker 2: Most cars on the road could use a little TLC.

Speaker 2: paint jobs like collision repairs. Get a free estimate today.
Speaker 2: Oh better get Maco. Okay, get your phone calls on
Speaker 2: the chiefs. Here. I'll talk about this Justin Tucker situation
Speaker 2: because I'm not going to this isn't court TV. But
Speaker 2: I will talk about the football aspects of this with
Speaker 2: Justin Tucker. Moving forward, the Ravens kicker accused of inappropriate
Speaker 2: sexual behavior by six massage therapists. Now this happened a
Speaker 2: while ago, but it just came to light. I don't
Speaker 2: think there's any civil lawsuits attached to this, at least
Speaker 2: not yet. He is vehemently denied that he was involved
Speaker 2: in this, but let's be fair. This was around the
Speaker 2: same time a couple of years ago with Deshaun Watson
Speaker 2: that the story came out, but then that quickly caught
Speaker 2: fire the number of massage therapists and the civil lawsuits
Speaker 2: attached to that. But with Justin Tucker, you know, if
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the career timing of this, he did
Speaker 2: not have a good year, his worst year Hall of
Speaker 2: Fame kicker, and he makes seven million dollars, which is
Speaker 2: a lot for a kicker. He's going to be thirty
Speaker 2: six years of age. This might be a situation, a
Speaker 2: jumping off point for the Baltimore Ravens. That's the ass
Speaker 2: back to this that I'm interested in. Now you can
Speaker 2: read it online. There's a lot of details in there,
Speaker 2: but you know these women. I haven't. I don't think
Speaker 2: there's any litigation that is pending, but it's not in
Speaker 2: the story, so I wanted to bring it up. I'm
Speaker 2: not avoiding it. He's been a guest on the show,
Speaker 2: been a really good guest on the show, So it's
Speaker 2: not Hey, are you going to talk about it? Yes,
Speaker 2: but we're not trying the case. If you read the article,
Speaker 2: then you get a better understanding what's gone on. Allegedly
Speaker 2: it's gone on his reaction to this, but it's back
Speaker 2: to twenty twelve and twenty sixteen. I believe when these
Speaker 2: accusations came up. But I care about the football aspect
Speaker 2: of this. If you want to read it and all
Speaker 2: the gory details there, go ahead. But I'm not going
Speaker 2: to try that because I'm not a lawyer and it's
Speaker 2: not court TV. All right, let me see how about
Speaker 2: Blake and Illinois had Blake? What's on your mind today?
Speaker 11: Hey, good more, Danutz.
Speaker 12: I just wanted to give my thoughts and opinions on
Speaker 12: Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. What you guys said this
Speaker 12: morning really struck struck a I want to say, a
Speaker 12: nerve or anything, but it really brought some hindsight to
Speaker 12: me that I think that everybody hates the Chiefs for
Speaker 12: the simple fact of everything that surrounds them. I wouldn't
Speaker 12: say that the Chiefs are villains at all. It's just
Speaker 12: like kind of what Martin said. You gotta deal with
Speaker 12: Patrick Mahoons's brother, you got to deal with his wife.
Speaker 12: You gotta deal with Taylor Swift, even though she doesn't
Speaker 12: want to be on TV. You see all these fans
Speaker 12: coming out of the woodworks, and it just kind of
Speaker 12: gets frustrating. Now, if you're a Chiefs fan, of course
Speaker 12: you're gonna be in stride, just like me. I'm an
Speaker 12: Ohio State fan, so I love seeing them win. But
Speaker 12: when you're on the opposite side of it and you're
Speaker 12: seeing the Patriots win every year or the Chiefs win
Speaker 12: every year, it just kind of starts to get a
Speaker 12: little drawn out. And I think normal fans just need
Speaker 12: to see some change. Even though we're witnessing history. It
Speaker 12: just when it's not your team, you're ready to kind
Speaker 12: of move on, get it.
Speaker 2: We get tired, you get tired of seeing you know,
Speaker 2: the Cowboys when they were good. I'm that old. I
Speaker 2: remember when they used to be really good, or the
Speaker 2: Steel Curtain. You got tired of that. But you know,
Speaker 2: in the moment, you are watching greatness, and that that's
Speaker 2: you know, that's why you fall in love with sports.
Speaker 2: You don't fall in love with sports because you know
Speaker 2: your synaggue of everything. You know, I really love sports
Speaker 2: because I hate watching that team. That's not what we
Speaker 2: grew up on. I think it kind of evolved or
Speaker 2: devolved into that that you see somebody. You know, social
Speaker 2: media's played such a large role, like everything is there
Speaker 2: and it's always there and everybody has an opinion on it.
Speaker 2: It didn't used to be that way. I wonder what
Speaker 2: social media would have done to Michael Jordan. I wonder
Speaker 2: what they would have done to him of the off
Speaker 2: the court, so you know, going up when he was there,
Speaker 2: you know, Magic and Bird, there's no social media. And
Speaker 2: I think because of that, you just watch what you watch.
Speaker 2: You saw what you saw and you heard what you heard,
Speaker 2: and that's what was great. I mean, I grew up
Speaker 2: in Cincinnati with the big Red machine. I didn't know
Speaker 2: what Pete Rose was like as a person. But now
Speaker 2: we find out what everybody is like and who they're dating,
Speaker 2: who they did day, what are the rumors, whispers, speculation,
Speaker 2: And that's why it comes to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 2: Do I want to see them lose. I'd like to
Speaker 2: see them lose just because of the story attached to this.
Speaker 2: But if they win, there's a story attached to that
Speaker 2: as well. It's just we've heard that story before. If
Speaker 2: they lose, all right, now we have a little different conversation.
Speaker 2: I'm in the content business. That's all I care about.
Speaker 2: What can I get that's interesting and bring to you.
Speaker 2: Guess that I can bring to you. That's what it's
Speaker 2: all about content. So that's why I don't root. I
Speaker 2: root for a great story no matter who wins, who loses.
Speaker 3: Campo Also, don't you think dynasties make it easier to
Speaker 3: become and embrace sports? When I was a little kid,
Speaker 3: I didn't know a lot about baseball, but I knew
Speaker 3: the Reds were, I knew Johnny Bench was and Perez
Speaker 3: and Conception. She owned because they were always there in
Speaker 3: the playoffs every year. And then those Yankees teams and
Speaker 3: you knew all their players in Reggie Jackson. And then
Speaker 3: as a football fan, I discovered the Pittsburgh Steelers. I
Speaker 3: could name that entire lineup. I'm not from Pittsburgh nor
Speaker 3: a Steeler fan, but they made it easier to become
Speaker 3: a sports fan.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh Christopher and Nashville Hey Christopher.
Speaker 13: Hey Dan, Dennis, Good morning, first time caller. Love the
Speaker 13: show five to nine hard, but softening one to eighty
Speaker 13: five hard. I think that the Chiefs fatigue was primarily
Speaker 13: was the Chiefs hate was primarily fatigue based until Patrick
Speaker 13: Mahomes tried to flop in the Texans game. That was
Speaker 13: crossing the line. We don't do that, that's not a
Speaker 13: football thing. And once he tried to flop, I think
Speaker 13: a lot of fans turned the corner.
Speaker 11: And said, no, they've got to go down.
Speaker 2: I think that the hatred happened long before he tried
Speaker 2: to flop. I would think so some of the greatest
Speaker 2: soccer players in the world flop all the time. I
Speaker 2: don't know if that means you hate MESSI or Ronaldo.
Speaker 2: But Mahomes flopping. Yeah, it's football. You don't want to
Speaker 2: see them flop. But I don't think that's the reason
Speaker 2: why everybody looked at them as they're not villains. They
Speaker 2: don't embrace you know, if you want to look at villains,
Speaker 2: then look at the Oakland Raiders were villains when they
Speaker 2: played back in the seventies eighties. They were villains, and
Speaker 2: they embraced that. They wanted to hurt you. They wanted
Speaker 2: to take your head off, Jack Tatum, they wanted to
Speaker 2: do damage. That's a villain. Uh, Nick and La Hi? Nick?
Speaker 6: Hey Dan, how's it going?
Speaker 14: Uh?
Speaker 11: Six to two fifty thirty?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 6: Just wanted to comment. I'm a I'm a Charger fan,
Speaker 6: season ticket member, and just to comment on the last caller. Yeah,
Speaker 6: the hate has gone way before the whole world shutdown
Speaker 6: with COVID.
Speaker 11: By the way, we as Charger.
Speaker 6: Fans, you know, you kind of get used to the
Speaker 6: last minute, heartbreaking losses, and I've seen many of those
Speaker 6: with with Travis Kelsey walking through the end zone and
Speaker 6: overtime or you know, Keenan Allen one minute score in
Speaker 6: the fourth quarter and then all of a sudden, pack
Speaker 6: comes down and does it you have to respect him.
Speaker 6: I actually do want to ask maybe we can throw
Speaker 6: a pull question on because eventually it's going to happen.
Speaker 11: But what's team is going to overtake the Chiefs? Is
Speaker 11: it Harbaugh and the Chargers? Is it Carol in the Raiders?
Speaker 11: Or is it Sean Payton and the Broncos.
Speaker 2: So you're limited limiting this to the AFC West.
Speaker 6: Well, I'm doing I'm doing it for the division and
Speaker 6: also attack each day with an enthusiasm.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Nick. I would I would probably say the Chargers,
Speaker 2: but look, the Broncos had an unbelievable year. The Raiders
Speaker 2: they're not ready right now, but you know, let's find
Speaker 2: out in two years. You get a quarterback. You know,
Speaker 2: Mahomes isn't going anywhere. He's twenty nine. Now, Kelsey's going
Speaker 2: to go somewhere. He's going to go into retirement. Maybe
Speaker 2: you know, maybe he plays one more year. But they've
Speaker 2: had plug and play. They keep doing that just like
Speaker 2: the Patriots. Everything they're doing is just like the Patriots.
Speaker 2: You have the coach and you have the orderback. Now
Speaker 2: what else do you add and subtract? I mean they've
Speaker 2: traded away Hall of famers in New England, like lawyer molloy,
Speaker 2: we're gonna trade him to Buffalo What Richard Seymour, We're
Speaker 2: gonna trade him to the Raiders. They would have plug
Speaker 2: and play. Who's the running back? I don't know who
Speaker 2: are these wide receivers. I don't know. Now, you did
Speaker 2: have some that were constance, you know, Gronk was always there.
Speaker 2: But that's what Kansas City has done. Kansas City got
Speaker 2: rid of the most dynamic wide receiver in the game
Speaker 2: at the time, in Tyreek Kill, most explosive wide receiver,
Speaker 2: and we thought, oh my god, what are they doing.
Speaker 2: They knew what they were doing.
Speaker 11: Uh.
Speaker 2: By the way, did the caller have your name wrong there, Marvin?
Speaker 7: Yeah, Martin, really good point.
Speaker 2: All right, Martin, it's Mark. First of all. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: was I was going to gloss over it and Paulie goes, uh,
Speaker 2: I think you need to ad us that. Yeah. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, Hey Martin, Hi, yeah, Marty Martin. I love
Speaker 2: that show. Mark, Marty, youre are Marty Scorsese, Jamie and
Speaker 2: Virginia Beach, Hey, Jamie.
Speaker 5: Hey Dan, long time listener, first time caller. I just
Speaker 5: I just want to say, first and foremost, I love
Speaker 5: the sport of football, and the Chiefs are true professionals
Speaker 5: across the board, from the coach, the quarterback, transitional players,
Speaker 5: and I forgot. And also I would like to mention
Speaker 5: that they are starting to show Taylor Swift walk into
Speaker 5: the stadium now too, So I don't know if that
Speaker 5: counts for the over under.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they always show the walk in, absolutely absolutely, Dylan.
Speaker 2: Can you find out, since you're a resident gambler, of
Speaker 2: how many times she appears on camera? Does that include
Speaker 2: before the game, after the game, or during the game.
Speaker 8: I believe it's during the broadcast of the game. But
Speaker 8: I will find out, all.
Speaker 2: Right, But as a journalist, we need to pin this down.
Speaker 2: I'll get some sources out here. Yeah, but I isn't
Speaker 2: the over under Taylor Swift appearances five and a half?
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's five and a half, so six to catch
Speaker 8: the over, which does seem like a lot even for
Speaker 8: like one and a half a quarter.
Speaker 2: Hmmm, I don't know. Yeah, it maybe it depends on
Speaker 2: Kelsey's production if he scores six touchdowns catch, yes, Paul.
Speaker 3: I saw a couple of articles discussing Travis Kelce and
Speaker 3: some of the phrases used were down year off year,
Speaker 3: and I didn't really track his catches. This year he
Speaker 3: had ninety seven catches and he had missed one game.
Speaker 3: Ninety seven catches, that's an off year. He had ninety
Speaker 3: three last year. I know a couple of years ago
Speaker 3: he had one hundred and ten and twelve touchdowns. It
Speaker 3: feels like he's not the focus as much. But a
Speaker 3: down year with ninety seven catches.
Speaker 2: Well, that's the bar that he set, the standard he set.
Speaker 2: I think, yes, he did have catches, he just didn't
Speaker 2: feel like he was the guy you're going to. Everybody
Speaker 2: knew you were going to him this year, but you know,
Speaker 2: you get a thousand. I mean, he's Hall of Famer
Speaker 2: and you could make the case he'll be recognized as
Speaker 2: the greatest tight end of all time. I mean not
Speaker 2: statistically because Tony Gonzalez put up incredible numbers, but he's
Speaker 2: been he's been that safety blanket, you know, it's all
Speaker 2: He's always there.
Speaker 7: Yes, Marv Man, if you're Tony Gonzalez, you're thinking to yourself, Man,
Speaker 7: where was Pat Mahomes when.
Speaker 2: I was there? When he was in Kansas City, it.
Speaker 7: Would have been a no doubt about who the greatest
Speaker 7: tight end of all time is.
Speaker 2: Did he have Elvis Gerbach? There? Rody Croyle, Brody Croyle,
Speaker 2: bloop bloop for that Alabama's Brody Croyle.
Speaker 11: Uh.
Speaker 2: Let's see Andrea in Indiana High Andrea, good.
Speaker 11: Morning, Dan, How you doing great.
Speaker 14: I am probably one of your oldest fans. I'm an
Speaker 14: eighty year old list driver and listen to here faithfully
Speaker 14: every morning. I just can't help but wonder why people
Speaker 14: are so upset with the Kansas City Chief. I mean,
Speaker 14: we're on the cusp of history and it's going to
Speaker 14: be I think, one of the most exciting Super Bowl
Speaker 14: games we've had in a long long time.
Speaker 2: Andrea, are you driving somebody in your car?
Speaker 14: I am sitting in my carport waiting for my son
Speaker 14: to come out.
Speaker 5: Who he just has?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 14: Okay, okay, no, no, I do not talk text and
Speaker 14: drive and all that crap. Okay, That's why I've lived
Speaker 14: to be eighty fans.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 14: And as far as the Taylor Swifts phenomenon goes, well,
Speaker 14: good for Travis. I don't care how many times they
Speaker 14: show her, you know what the heck? But you know,
Speaker 14: we are so crazy now. We pick apart everything, we
Speaker 14: look at everything, We judge everything. How about don't my
Speaker 14: grammy used to say taking care of myself is a
Speaker 14: full time jab?
Speaker 2: Alrighty. How about Andrew, Yeah, jere, I'm remind our business.

Speaker 2: be like Andrea, hardworking, eighty years of age, loves the show.

Speaker 2: be warm up some things.
Speaker 7: Yes, mar she's from a certain generation that don't take.
Speaker 2: No bleep yeah eighty yeah, I love it. No, thank

Speaker 17: Man.
Speaker 2: Okay, go all right, Gris is okay, Dylan, would you
Speaker 2: update the poll results please? Yes? I will, Dan.
Speaker 8: So the question is the chiefs are villains generally likable
Speaker 8: or neither just overcovered sixty seven percent?
Speaker 2: They neither just overcovered? Yeah they are. Ye, that seems
Speaker 2: to be a consensus thing. But that's not their fault.
Speaker 2: It's our fault. It's the media's fault. They're good. Therefore
Speaker 2: they're going to be talked about. You know. Now Mahomes
Speaker 2: is getting into the Tom Brady conversation or maybe the
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan conversation. Andy Reid now getting into the Bill
Speaker 2: Belichick conversation. Now we're looking at them as is this
Speaker 2: the best run we've seen in the NFL in history? Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 8: I also like, how can you not root for Andy Reid?
Speaker 8: I don't think I haven't met anyone who doesn't like him.
Speaker 8: He's the franchise wins leader for both of these teams
Speaker 8: in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: Like, that's pretty cool. I don't think that's ever happened,
Speaker 2: has it? Look at you doing some research for a change.
Speaker 2: I know I didn't have to read that one too. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know. Don Shula the old time victory leader
Speaker 2: for the Baltimore Colts and the Miami Dolphins. Maybe Paul Brown,
Speaker 2: the old time victory leader for the Cleveland Browns and
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals. Maybe. I don't know. Although Marvin Lewis
Speaker 2: was there for like fifteen years, it was like every
Speaker 2: year could be moving on from Marvin Lewis, and it's like,
Speaker 2: and they're bringing back Mervin Lewis.
Speaker 7: Yes, smart would be like longest active coaches Bill Belichick
Speaker 7: than Marvin Lewis.
Speaker 2: Is right. Let me see Chuck in Raleigh, Hi, Chuck,
Speaker 2: what's on your mind?
Speaker 17: Good morning, Dan, and the dan Nets and just a
Speaker 17: little bit of a best and worst of Dylan this week,
Speaker 17: if you will. The best being his grateful dead steal
Speaker 17: your face sweatshirt hoodie the other day, and not a worse,
Speaker 17: but I think he needed some more airtime, some more opportunity,
Speaker 17: which has seemingly gotten better as the week progresses. And
Speaker 17: hopefully we'll get his best bets on the Super Bowl
Speaker 17: next week, down to New Orleans something if you're gonna
Speaker 17: bet Philly Way or Kansas City Way. And then some
Speaker 17: prop bets. And speaking of prop bets, got a pie
Speaker 17: in the face bet for a Fritzy prop down in
Speaker 17: New Orleans, say a Fritzy mishap pie in the face
Speaker 17: that some thing and nothing injurious, So we don't want
Speaker 17: Fritzie to get hurt, but a stubbing of the toe
Speaker 17: or some kind of maybe getting lost in the city,
Speaker 17: Fritzy Misshaf, pie in the pie in the face back,
Speaker 17: and I'm gonna double down, double or nothing. It's gonna
Speaker 17: be like cockey has upper body or lower body injury.
Speaker 17: It's very vague, but Princey mishaf upper body New Orleans
Speaker 17: next week?
Speaker 2: Who's it all right? Yes, Paul.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Fritzi will not be leaving the hotel that often
Speaker 3: and going out on the streets in New Orleans. However,
Speaker 3: I think last year you did get hurt in his
Speaker 3: hotel room.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh that's right.
Speaker 18: I did half and like two in the morning. I
Speaker 18: didn't know about that little dead couch thing that they
Speaker 18: have in front of the bed where you sit and
Speaker 18: tie your shoes or whatever that's for.
Speaker 2: And I went flying.
Speaker 18: I know, it's hard to believe someone of my size
Speaker 18: could actually like take, you know, be airborne, but I
Speaker 18: went flying and I banged my toes terrible.
Speaker 2: God. I would love to have video bruised ankle and like,
Speaker 2: I don't know, i'd pay a thousand dollars right now
Speaker 2: for a video of that pitch black in the room.
Speaker 18: I didn't have the TV on or anything. There was
Speaker 18: maybe a little night like but too far for me
Speaker 18: to see what.
Speaker 2: I feel bad for the person underneath you, the room
Speaker 2: underneath you, and they heard you. It's like earthquake. This
Speaker 2: guy's falling. Don't got earthquakes as part of the country.
Speaker 2: That's odd.
Speaker 18: We should call the front test.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you want video of Todd's room
Speaker 2: that bad. Well, he's described his hotel room to me
Speaker 2: and in great detail, but I would love to have
Speaker 2: seen that. Are you naked? I'm just saying, okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I'm a journalist or open at times.
Speaker 7: I'll take it up and put like a towel down
Speaker 7: and just with my sock.
Speaker 2: No what I'm saying, were you naked?
Speaker 18: When I think I had a pair of sweats on
Speaker 18: and probably some brood.
Speaker 2: All right, let's ride. I sh had too much information.
Speaker 2: Next hour, Cam Newton, would you rather win a Super
Speaker 2: Bowl or an MVP? His answer got some headlines. We'll
Speaker 2: discuss that, and we'll hear from the bron James as
Speaker 2: well and the All Stars hubs.
