Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: It's our one on this Tuesday. Come on in stay
Speaker 2: a while, Gang's all here, ready to go, Fired up.
Speaker 2: Got some topics. Usually it gets a little dry certain
Speaker 2: months of the year. Sports topics get a little drier,
Speaker 2: and then if you have a story, it metastasizes because
Speaker 2: there's no other story that's going to compete with it.
Speaker 2: But this is a big story today, It's going to
Speaker 2: be a big story for probably the next couple of weeks,
Speaker 2: and that is the push tush, the brotherly shove. It's
Speaker 2: going to come up and eventually it'll get at the combine.
Speaker 2: There'll be a lot of chatter and then all of
Speaker 2: a sudden, we're going to decide if the owners the
Speaker 2: competition committee want to move forward with this. But you
Speaker 2: had the Green Bay Packers, according to Diana Russini, who
Speaker 2: they set a proposal to remove the push tush and
Speaker 2: so or tush push or is it push tush whatever?
Speaker 2: Don't I think you're doing both this basically this pushing
Speaker 2: the tush or you're toushing the push. Absolutely well, somebody's
Speaker 2: tush is getting pushed. And then in fact, a couple
Speaker 2: of them are, if you think about it, plush tush, Yes,
Speaker 2: the push tush. Hey, your push tushing stop it. Uh
Speaker 2: but this is where you had to have somebody come
Speaker 2: forward and put their name to it and say, hey,
Speaker 2: we would like to get rid of the push tush
Speaker 2: or the tush puck. How about brotherly shove? How's that?
Speaker 2: Since it's all about Philadelphia. By the way, come on
Speaker 2: in stay a while you're watching on Peacock. Thank you
Speaker 2: for downloading the app and our radio affiliates around the country. iHeartRadio,
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio in some cities, ESPN Radio as well.
Speaker 2: Stat of the Day brought you by Panini America, the
Speaker 2: official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. First Down,
Speaker 2: we'd brought to you by Mako. Your car could use
Speaker 2: a little TLC and that's what they do. They bring
Speaker 2: your car back to life. Affordable paint jobs like collision repairs.
Speaker 2: Get a free estimate today. Uh oh, better get Mako
Speaker 2: Jay Jay what will join us? Coming up next hour?
Speaker 2: We'll get his thoughts on this play should it be outlawed?
Speaker 2: And it's going to come down to the following, Is
Speaker 2: it dangerous? Is their data to support this? Because I
Speaker 2: don't think it's fair to the Philadelphia Eagles because they
Speaker 2: have mastered this where you have a great offensive line,
Speaker 2: a very powerful running back, quarterback, and you have somebody
Speaker 2: behind the quarterback pushing. I don't think it's fair to
Speaker 2: the Eagles to outlaw it. But this is what I
Speaker 2: think the NFL will try to do. It's a boring play,
Speaker 2: it's a predictable play. It's like the extra point. It's boring,
Speaker 2: it's predictable. Then all of a sudden they moved it
Speaker 2: back and now it's not boring or predictable. They want
Speaker 2: you to stay in front of the TV set. They
Speaker 2: don't want to go, oh, touchdown, all right, don't need
Speaker 2: to watch the extra point, don't need to watch the kickoff.
Speaker 2: They don't you glued to the TV set. But this
Speaker 2: comes down to the Eagles have mastered it. Nobody else has,
Speaker 2: and therefore I can't penalize the Eagles because they've mastered
Speaker 2: something that nobody else has. The one thing that I
Speaker 2: would do if you really wanted to be a stickler
Speaker 2: for this, and you wanted to do it under the
Speaker 2: umbrella of hey, safety first in the NFL, then you
Speaker 2: don't allow a player to be behind Jalen Hurts pushing him.
Speaker 2: It's just a quarterback sneak, and that's been part of
Speaker 2: the NFL for decades, the quarterback sneak. You can't outlaw
Speaker 2: the quarterback sneak. The problem I have with it is
Speaker 2: the big lineman behind Jalen Hurts, who's doing the pushing
Speaker 2: behind him. If you want to get rid of that. Okay,
Speaker 2: I still think the Eagles, even though it's predictable and
Speaker 2: it's boring, will still be successful. All right, Well, come
Speaker 2: up with the poll question, play of the day, stat
Speaker 2: of the day. The combine kind of gets underway today
Speaker 2: kind of. This is where you got some interviews that
Speaker 2: are going on medicals for kickers also return men, I believe,
Speaker 2: having their interviews in medicals. Let's go okay, oh Dan, Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is where the NFL network is still setting up
Speaker 2: as these guys are trying to do their things, like
Speaker 2: coming through here we go. Wait a minute, I'm doing
Speaker 2: an interview in here. Yeah. Yeah, we got to get
Speaker 2: some cable. We got to get all this ready for Thursday. Here.
Speaker 2: Here's what I want to ask, and we don't ask this,
Speaker 2: but I think we should. When it comes to hand size,
Speaker 2: do we make a big deal about a punter. And
Speaker 2: how about foot size? I'm being serious. Do they measure feet?
Speaker 2: I don't know if they do, I haven't seen anything.
Speaker 2: I don't know what Russell Erkslabn's shoe size was when
Speaker 2: he was kicking, or Morten Anderson or Adam vint Terry.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Is it a nine and a half?
Speaker 2: Is it a thirteen and a half. If you're a punter,
Speaker 2: how big is your foot? Well? Feet? What about hands?
Speaker 2: I think it was barstool maybe pft who brought up
Speaker 2: they should measure finger length, not hand sized, he'd cut. Yes,
Speaker 2: once again, these are the things if we really want
Speaker 2: to you know, you know, drill down deeply here, like
Speaker 2: how much do we really want to know about your measurables? Yes,
Speaker 2: Paul I went back and looked.
Speaker 3: I've got the official NFL Combined Stats page, which gives
Speaker 3: you readouts for everybody in the past.
Speaker 2: Okay, remember the punter two.
Speaker 3: Years ago for Iowa, that all pro, all star punter
Speaker 3: they had, Tory Taylor. He was measured, They did arm
Speaker 3: length and hand size. They did not measure his feet.
Speaker 2: Okay, but if nobody made a big deal about somebody's
Speaker 2: hand size as a punter. How many times we've seen
Speaker 2: the punter have the ball go through his hands happens?
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's that important. I don't do
Speaker 2: you want your punter to do bench presses? You know?
Speaker 2: A lot of this is silly, it is, but it
Speaker 2: does fill up a lot of time because if the
Speaker 2: combine was held in a different like in January or
Speaker 2: March April like, it wouldn't get as much attention. But
Speaker 2: there's a lot of things that are going on at
Speaker 2: the combine and really nothing else that's going to compete
Speaker 2: with it, and therefore we'll be glued to it. We
Speaker 2: can't wait to watch the defensive lineman out of Texas
Speaker 2: A and M how fast did he run the three
Speaker 2: cone drill? We get so caught up in it, And
Speaker 2: really it's silly to me because the tape doesn't lie
Speaker 2: what you do on tape. That's what I want to
Speaker 2: see when you do it against competition, And how are
Speaker 2: you in an interview? And what are your medicals? That's
Speaker 2: what I care about. And then I'm gonna do my
Speaker 2: background check. I'm going to talk to your teammates, I'm
Speaker 2: going to talk to the equipment manager. I'll do my
Speaker 2: due diligence there. But the stuff at the combine, it's filler,
Speaker 2: that's all it is. It's filler, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 3: On the schedule today, Dan, just to pump you up
Speaker 3: for the combine. Placekicker, defensive line, linebacker, medical exams, and
Speaker 3: team interviews. Defensive back and tight end team interviews today.
Speaker 2: Okay. Now, no broadcasts, no interviews in public, no interviews,
Speaker 2: So nothing really going on probably until Wednesday or Thursday.
Speaker 2: Thursday is that when it heats.
Speaker 3: Up on Yeah, heats up on field stuff. But the
Speaker 3: one thing you will see today is coaches, head coaches
Speaker 3: and general managers are talking to the media, so they
Speaker 3: may get some fall out later today and tomorrow from that.
Speaker 2: And also when you get the gms and coaches together,
Speaker 2: this is when things happen. And let's say Miles Garrett
Speaker 2: wants to be traded or you want to propose a trade.
Speaker 2: Now you can do it face to face. Now you
Speaker 2: can say, hey, come on my room, I got some
Speaker 2: things I want to say to you. Maybe if Matthew
Speaker 2: Stafford's representative is there, maybe you're talking to teams there.
Speaker 2: You know, the Steelers have made an inquiry to Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 2: The Giants reportedly have done that. Now you get a
Speaker 2: chance to say, hey, let's talk about this. I don't
Speaker 2: think you'll see Matthew Stafford there, but his representative could
Speaker 2: be there. And a lot of things get done. When
Speaker 2: you put everybody together and it's twenty four to seven,
Speaker 2: then that's when sometimes you'll get the groundwork, the foundation
Speaker 2: for moves that are going to be made. You'll also
Speaker 2: get the groundwork foundation maybe for what will happen with
Speaker 2: the tush Push. I did it, I got it right,
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you doing big boy things here just
Speaker 2: in time for them to get rid of the play
Speaker 2: and I'm just mastering it right now. All right. So
Speaker 2: poll question today seton what do you have for the
Speaker 2: first hour?
Speaker 4: Well, I would like to go with for the first
Speaker 4: hour today, the green Bay Packers are dot dot dot
Speaker 4: heroes or zeros.
Speaker 2: Wow okay. Diana Rossini's reporting two sources that the Green
Speaker 2: Bay Packers of the team that came forward to say
Speaker 2: let's outlaw the Toushpush. Okay, Todd Packers heroes or zeros.
Speaker 2: The Packers are zeros, Seaton heroes there zeroes zeros. Marvin
Speaker 2: Zero's heroes. They're saying what needed to be said. Thank y'all,
Speaker 2: give up your bodies. Cancel that play you always you could,
Speaker 2: you could play that SoundBite from that guy as if
Speaker 2: he is talking about the tushbush. Wait the next question, Jeff,
Speaker 2: where are you right there?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I just want to thank each and ever you want
Speaker 2: to know for all you he's.
Speaker 1: It's still really to be damn it. I'll thank you.
Speaker 4: Thank you, guys.
Speaker 2: They're awesome. Thank you so much, mister for saying what
Speaker 2: needed to be saying. Quartermacks, quarterbacks nes just still real
Speaker 2: to me. Damn it.
Speaker 1: Another one of these, you.
Speaker 2: See, Chris Jones neck, this is one to get rid
Speaker 2: of the George Fos. I just want to thank mister
Speaker 2: proper respect. Take it easy. Take it easy there, fell Pence,
Speaker 2: Take it easy there, fella. All right, Packers are heroes.
Speaker 2: I don't know that feels zero ish that, uh hey,
Speaker 2: we can't stop them? Can you help us stop them
Speaker 2: by taking the play out of out of the playbook?
Speaker 3: Camp Paul, I think the NFL needed a team to
Speaker 3: complain about it, to put it on the docket agenda.
Speaker 3: So I think the Packers did the NFL a solid either,
Speaker 3: intentionally or unintentionally.
Speaker 2: Well, why don't you have other teams doing that? You
Speaker 2: all need one to open the door, you know, But
Speaker 2: why wouldn't other teams join forces with the Packers zeros?
Speaker 3: You want to be in a part of a segment
Speaker 3: on the dam Patricks so often, they're probably gonna get
Speaker 3: a fifth round draft pick compensatory for you.
Speaker 2: Get a punter that's pushing it. Paul, Yeah, yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: thank you, Tom. Let's see Mavericks at the Lakers tonight.
Speaker 2: It'd be a whole lot more interesting if it was
Speaker 2: the Lakers at the Mavericks and Anthony Davis was playing
Speaker 2: in this game. I have some over unders from DraftKings.
Speaker 2: I'll have that for you coming up. And oh, by
Speaker 2: the way, performance from the Joker last night he had
Speaker 2: nineteen assists. He's the center, And I thought, okay, how
Speaker 2: often does this happen? So I went back and I
Speaker 2: go who has the most assist from the center position
Speaker 2: in a game in NBA history? And it happened in
Speaker 2: nineteen six Will Chamberlain. Will Chamberlain once led the NBA
Speaker 2: in assist I think he led in just about every
Speaker 2: category possible except for free throw percentage. He was a
Speaker 2: terrible free throw shitter, So twenty one assist, and then
Speaker 2: you go Joker at nineteen. Then after that it's Will
Speaker 2: Chamberlain at nineteen. Then after that it's Joker, Joker, Joker, joker, Joker, Joker, joker, Joker,
Speaker 2: Will Chamberlain, Joker, Joker, joker, joker, Joker, Joker, joker, joker, joker, joker, Joker,
Speaker 2: Will Chamberlain, Will Chamberlain, Joker, Joker, Joker. Stat of the Day,
Speaker 2: Sat of the day, that past stat of the day,
Speaker 2: Stat of the day, Here comes that what stat of
Speaker 2: the Day brought to you by Panini America, the official
Speaker 2: Trading Cards of the Dan Patrick Show. And it's not
Speaker 2: like that's all he does. I mean, he's giving you
Speaker 2: pretty much a triple double. He's averaging a triple double.
Speaker 2: But he does it in a way that you're almost,
Speaker 2: I don't know, you're not surprised by anything. Nineteen assists,
Speaker 2: the all time record is twenty one, and you get
Speaker 2: the feeling if Joker wanted to get the record, he
Speaker 2: could get the record. I don't know if the numbers
Speaker 2: mean anything to it. I think he enjoys the mind game,
Speaker 2: the chess game of basketball. And as long as he
Speaker 2: continues to enjoy that, he'll continue to be the best
Speaker 2: player in the game. It's not like he's slowing down
Speaker 2: or he doesn't jump as high anymore. This is who
Speaker 2: he is. He plays old man basketball and he's the
Speaker 2: best player in the game. Now, he's not going to
Speaker 2: win the MVP because there's voter fatigue for him to win.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, he can't win another one. I don't
Speaker 2: remember that happening when I was growing up. I don't
Speaker 2: remember that happening, you know, with Bird and Magic and Mike. Oh,
Speaker 2: he can't win now. There might have been voter fatigue
Speaker 2: a little bit with Jordan, and that's why Barkley and
Speaker 2: Carl Malone won, But they were deserving and their teams
Speaker 2: played really well. But Joker is not going to win
Speaker 2: the MVP this year. Shay Gilis Alexander will win the MVP.
Speaker 2: He's not a better player, but it's a better story
Speaker 2: and his team is playing extremely well except for the
Speaker 2: last three minutes last night in regulation and then overtime.
Speaker 2: Is they blew a twenty five point lead at home.
Speaker 2: If this is if this happened to Lebron, my god,
Speaker 2: it would never stop on SportsCenter. This is this is
Speaker 2: the leading candidate for the MVP and you blew a
Speaker 2: twenty five point lead at home against a Timberwolf team
Speaker 2: that I think was this is the back end of
Speaker 2: a back to back. So Joker is making it. He
Speaker 2: makes it easy at times. Now. I give the Lakers
Speaker 2: credit for the defense they played on him last game,
Speaker 2: which was incredible, But he makes it look really easy
Speaker 2: and it's not really easy, and I think that's what's amazing.
Speaker 2: You'll watch and you go, how did he see that?
Speaker 2: And if you watch and he of course has a
Speaker 2: water polo experience. He just standing there and he's holding
Speaker 2: the basketball and this happens in water polo, except for
Speaker 2: they can't stand in the water. He's at the top
Speaker 2: of the key, directing traffic. He's like a conductor in
Speaker 2: a symphony. And he makes it look really easy. Nineteen
Speaker 2: assists for a center, and he's going to get the
Speaker 2: all time record at some point. But that's the those
Speaker 2: who have had at least fifteen assists as a center.
Speaker 2: That was the list that I had, fifteen through twenty
Speaker 2: one assists with him and Wilt. Wilt is there four
Speaker 2: times or five times. Joker's there, I think twenty times,
Speaker 2: so we've gotten used to it. But I do think
Speaker 2: Shay Gilgis is going to still win the MVP this year.

Speaker 2: Play of the Day coming up. Settle on a poll question.
Speaker 2: By the way, I know that they were the butt
Speaker 2: of a lot of jokes for the last few years.
Speaker 2: The Detroit Pistons don't look now, but they're competitive and
Speaker 2: Caid Cunningham is going to be an All NBA player
Speaker 2: this year. They've won seven in a row for the
Speaker 2: first time since twenty fourteen. Kid Cunningham had thirty two
Speaker 2: and nine rebounds as the Pistons beat the Clippers. Yeah,
Speaker 2: sometimes we forget. I think they won a total of
Speaker 2: what eight games or something crazy last year and here
Speaker 2: they are now being a competitive team and they won
Speaker 2: seven in a row. But Joker last night with the
Speaker 2: big headlines with nineteen eighteen points and nine rebounds. So
Speaker 2: his career single highs are fifty six points, twenty seven
Speaker 2: rebounds in nineteen assists. He's the only player since the
Speaker 2: merger with the ABA NBA to have those numbers on
Speaker 2: his resume.
Speaker 6: Stata, the j Stata, the Jay we Love your Stata,
Speaker 6: the Day Stata, the j Stanta, the j oh damn
Speaker 6: give us that stat of the day.
Speaker 2: Say thank you, Pandora. Thank you. By the way, that's
Speaker 2: how quickly Joker moves on the court, similar to how
Speaker 2: Pandora sings that. Give me a little bit of that.
Speaker 2: Just imagine Joker. This is how he moves.
Speaker 6: Stata, the Jays Data, the Day, we Love your.
Speaker 2: Statu Day. Oh there's a backdoor passy once again, thank
Speaker 2: you Pandora. Yes eight seven seven three DP show we'll
Speaker 2: get to your phone calls coming up. The combine is
Speaker 2: kind of started, and the big game the Mavericks at
Speaker 2: the Lakers that'll be coming up tonight. Some over unders
Speaker 2: with that. According to DraftKings, Luca going against his former
Speaker 2: team mAbs are getting nine against the Lakers tonight, Todd,
Speaker 2: what do you think? According to DraftKings, the over under
Speaker 2: will be Luca against his former team playing in Los Angeles.
Speaker 7: Luca is going to score.
Speaker 8: The over unders should be thirty three and a half.
Speaker 2: Ain't Seaton? How about you twenty seven and a half?
Speaker 2: Marvin thirty one and a half? Bloop bloop, Yeah, thirty
Speaker 2: one and a half. Hey, you got it too, Paul.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna change my answer at thirty one and night, Tod,
Speaker 2: you got it Lebron games twenty five and a half,
Speaker 2: Kyrie twenty five and a half, and Austin Reeves eighteen
Speaker 2: and a half as well. But the matchup I want
Speaker 2: to see is in April when the Lakers go to
Speaker 2: Dallas and then hopefully Anthony Davis is going to be
Speaker 2: able to play. Plus, how weird will that be when
Speaker 2: the biggest ovation that night will be for Luca in
Speaker 2: a Laker uniform when he comes back to Dallas Because
Speaker 2: those fans are still I mean, this was terrible for them,
Speaker 2: a surprise to them, like wait a minute, what just happened?
Speaker 2: So this isn't one of those you know a player
Speaker 2: wants out of Place A to go to Place B
Speaker 2: and then comes back and then gets booed. This player
Speaker 2: didn't want to leave and thought he was going to
Speaker 2: get a max deal here super max deal. Just bought
Speaker 2: a really really expensive house, Yes, Martin.
Speaker 7: What does Nico Harrison have to do to get from
Speaker 7: underneath this? Does Anthony Davis have to go off for
Speaker 7: forty and twenty for the rest of his career in Dallas?
Speaker 2: Well, if you go further in the playoffs than the Lakers,
Speaker 2: that would help, I would say. I mean, this could
Speaker 2: be a situation like Doug Peterson with the Eagles. You
Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl and a couple years later you're fired.
Speaker 2: They could win the NBA Finals and then he might
Speaker 2: be out of a job in two or three years.
Speaker 2: But see Luca Is, it's the long haul. And once again,
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is one of those stories
Speaker 2: that we don't really hear the full story here, But
Speaker 2: if you believe that there's a conspiracy theory of they
Speaker 2: want to tank and they want to relocate the team
Speaker 2: to Las Vegas because the new owners majority owners are
Speaker 2: from Vegas, they want to get gambling in Dallas in
Speaker 2: Texas and good luck with that. Mark Cuban realized what
Speaker 2: they wanted to do, and so Cuban is not your
Speaker 2: majority owner anymore. Now do you believe in the conspiracy
Speaker 2: theory of hey, we're going to move the team. Nobody's
Speaker 2: coming out to watch the game. The team had been good,
Speaker 2: and we want to go to Vegas. I can't imagine
Speaker 2: this commissioner going Okay, I just he wants to have
Speaker 2: expansion in Vegas in Seattle hopefully, But I don't know
Speaker 2: if he's going to go, Wow, you guys really fooled
Speaker 2: me here. He's too smart of a commissioner. But I
Speaker 2: know we have relocation all the time, or the potential
Speaker 2: for hate if you don't support us, we're moving. But
Speaker 2: in this situation, it feels like they didn't want to
Speaker 2: invest in a player who maybe wasn't investing in himself
Speaker 2: health wise. Maybe that's all this is. But when Luca
Speaker 2: comes back in April, that will he'll get the biggest ovation.
Speaker 2: He'll probably get a standing ovation. And I have no
Speaker 2: problem with the Dallas fans doing that to him because
Speaker 2: he didn't want to leave. It's not like Lebron wanting
Speaker 2: to leave Cleveland or Lebron wanting to leave Miami. This
Speaker 2: is Luca wanted to stay, and he'll get a hero's
Speaker 2: welcome when he goes back.
Speaker 3: Yes, Pa, So the Mavericks are trying out the plot
Speaker 3: of the movie Major League. They're tanking to be relocate.
Speaker 3: That's the entire plot of that movie.
Speaker 2: Right, that's that's but it's a close it will but
Speaker 2: that's a movie.
Speaker 3: Yes, but it's the closest thing to making sense since
Speaker 3: this whole thing happened weirdly.
Speaker 2: But I don't see this commissioner going yeah, uh, you
Speaker 2: got me. You got to get every all the other owners,
Speaker 2: the majority of the owners would have to sign off
Speaker 2: on this. They get relocation fees they use, but an
Speaker 2: expansion you get more money than I think for a
Speaker 2: relocation fee. How about both?
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're just like, you're just twisting, like you prefer
Speaker 4: to see the expansion team go to Las Vegas rather
Speaker 4: than right, But I don't know necessarily that from the
Speaker 4: league standpoint, they care which one is the expansion, which
Speaker 4: one is the one?
Speaker 2: So it moves the fact that they would say, are
Speaker 2: to this new ownership in Dallas, Okay, you guys can
Speaker 2: go to Vegas and we'll put an expansion team in Dallas.
Speaker 2: I just don't see this commissioner doing them. I know
Speaker 2: the previous one wouldn't allow it, but I don't see
Speaker 2: that unless the other owners go, hey, we don't. We
Speaker 2: don't want you to prevent us from doing what we
Speaker 2: want to do with our teams. But I don't see
Speaker 2: that now that it could happen. But I don't think
Speaker 2: that's the reason why Luca was sent out of town. Yes,
Speaker 2: he the uh.
Speaker 4: When you look at how commissioners work across different leagues,
Speaker 4: it always felt like Roger Goodell was the mouthpiece for
Speaker 4: the owners. Yes is does the NBA not work that way?
Speaker 2: Silver is more of the mouthpiece for the players. Now.
Speaker 2: I know that he is employed by the owners, but
Speaker 2: it certainly appears as if he is a player friendly commissioner.
Speaker 2: Goodell is not. No, he knows that he's getting sixty
Speaker 2: million dollars because the owners decided to give him. Jerry
Speaker 2: Jones decided to give him sixty million dollars Adam Silver
Speaker 2: to players, but he understands like the players are more
Speaker 2: important to the NBA than the players are to the NFL.
Speaker 2: The NFL is a product. The NBA is about the players.
Speaker 2: And I think and David Stern cultivated this, and Adam
Speaker 2: Silver took over from him and has continued to do so.
Speaker 2: Empowered them.
Speaker 3: Yes, Another reason it makes sense is if you go back,
Speaker 3: was it twenty seventeen the Vegas Golden Knights happened. I
Speaker 3: would have bet if you asked me fifteen years ago,
Speaker 3: the first team to be in Vegas would have been
Speaker 3: an NBA team. It seemed like it made the most sense.
Speaker 3: You come in, you get courtside tickets. It felt like
Speaker 3: there'd be the perfect league to be first into Vegas
Speaker 3: and they're gonna be last.
Speaker 2: Basically, Yeah, But I think that had to do with
Speaker 2: David Stern. I don't think Stern wanted it now. Once again,
Speaker 2: all of these commissioners or phonies, because they all, I mean,
Speaker 2: go back to when Roger Goodell in what twenty twelve
Speaker 2: will never allow gambling, and then twenty fifteen, all of
Speaker 2: a sudden, you change your twom and I said, once
Speaker 2: they figure out how they get their mother, there will
Speaker 2: be gambling and there have to be guardrails. They all
Speaker 2: have gambling now, they all embraced it. What changed nothing
Speaker 2: except for you got paid. And I think David Stern
Speaker 2: was concerned about that, and therefore, you know, the initiative
Speaker 2: wasn't to put a team in Vegas. I mean, they've
Speaker 2: had All Star Weekend in Vegas without a franchise there.
Speaker 2: That's how much they love Vegas. So it's a matter
Speaker 2: of time. And I wonder if Steph Curry and or
Speaker 2: Lebron James are part of an ownership group and they're
Speaker 2: involved in you know, that expansion team in Vegas. They
Speaker 2: have the summer league there. I mean, they're really they're prepared,
Speaker 2: they're ready to go, and I think it's just a
Speaker 2: matter of time. And you know, is Seattle going to
Speaker 2: approve an expansion team in Seattle? But I don't know
Speaker 2: if they're going to do any more expansion and maybe
Speaker 2: they let Dallas relocate. Maybe is the product that that
Speaker 2: bad or the people don't support it because it's not good.
Speaker 2: Still got Kyrie and still have Anthony Davis. You're still
Speaker 2: going to be competitive. It's just if Anthony Davis is healthy,
Speaker 2: they are a competitive team to go to the NBA Finals.
Speaker 2: I really believe that. But it's Anthony Davis and all
Speaker 2: bets are off, Yes, Marvin, So what are we doing?
Speaker 7: Is thirty for thirty? Do we have to wait until
Speaker 7: Luka retires, just to see how things played out and
Speaker 7: see if Dallas moves to Vegas or what.
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is the Malcolm Butler, why
Speaker 2: was he beinged type of situation, So wondering, Yes, you
Speaker 2: know what, we'll probably find out about Luca before we
Speaker 2: will Malcolm Butler and I do. You know, it's weird
Speaker 2: that we bring this up because you can say a
Speaker 2: lot of things about Belichick. He never spilled on this.
Speaker 2: He never said anything. Now Malcolm Butler hasn't either, But
Speaker 2: that's one of those It's hard to keep secrets in
Speaker 2: this business. But Belichick and the Patriots they kept it
Speaker 2: in for whatever reason. And you know, have I heard stories? Yes?
Speaker 2: I have, but you know, until it's really confirmed and validated,
Speaker 2: you know, you can't sit there and go, well, what
Speaker 2: I'm hearing or source? I don't have sources. I have
Speaker 2: people who have told me, but there I wouldn't consider
Speaker 2: them sources. They're just aware of the situation. It's like
Speaker 2: why a coach got fired in Boston. We still don't
Speaker 2: know that story, right, and maybe we never will, which
Speaker 2: is okay. Yeah, Paulie, we did.
Speaker 3: A poll question ten years ago, which would you rather
Speaker 3: know why Malcolm Butler was benched before the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2: Or who shot JFK? And it was like eighty percent
Speaker 2: Malcolm Butler. Yeah, fascinating story, pretty amazing, pretty amazing. That
Speaker 2: story still kind of lingers, and I think Malcolm Butler
Speaker 2: is maybe at this last Super Bowl he did talk
Speaker 2: a little bit about this, but uh, that one's going
Speaker 2: to stay stay quiet for a little while. It's like
Speaker 2: Jimmy Hoffa, you know, like at this point, do you
Speaker 2: care if he's buried at the meadow Lands it was
Speaker 2: he was buried.
Speaker 4: Excavated, Yeah, I mean metal lands aren't really there anymore, so.
Speaker 2: Well, he's probably still underground. I don't know if they
Speaker 2: took him out. Didn't you have a Red Sox fan
Speaker 2: who worked on the construction at Yankee Stadium and buried
Speaker 2: a Red Sox uniform in the cement there. It's pretty good,
Speaker 2: all right? So pole question today is going to be
Speaker 2: what see don't connor today? The Green Bay Packers are
Speaker 2: heroes or zeros? High school hero real life zero. Let's see.
Speaker 4: Early results have about fifty three percent calling the Packers heroes.
Speaker 4: I think we do well in that area. I think
Speaker 4: they're coming out heavy and strong with this vote.
Speaker 2: Okay, so the locals speaking up for their No, that's
Speaker 2: not personal, nothing personal. No, no, no, no. Covering the
Speaker 2: story is the way we should If the bearers said this,
Speaker 2: we would bears today would be zeros zeros. Yes they
Speaker 2: were yes time, But that's.
Speaker 8: The problem if several teams came out at once. So
Speaker 8: if it was kept the fact that you don't want
Speaker 8: to be that first team.
Speaker 2: Saying hey, no fear, we can't stop that.
Speaker 8: We can't do it ourselves.
Speaker 2: That way, you would be the nark. Would you never
Speaker 2: tattle on anybody cheating off your paper in school? Did you?
Speaker 8: I did not, But I covered my paper camber vacations
Speaker 8: because I'm like this kid, I've been studying for this
Speaker 8: test for a month. This kid's gonna come walk in here.
Speaker 8: We're gonna get the same grave. That's not gonna work.
Speaker 8: That was guys like us, We needed some help time.
Speaker 2: There's a midterm today.
Speaker 8: I was shocked. I'm like, I've been studying up that
Speaker 8: this like it's my whole life story, and you're like,
Speaker 8: I didn't know we have a final today?
Speaker 2: How do you not know that it's a final today?
Speaker 2: Help her brother out. Man, I'm entertaining the ladies on
Speaker 2: the basketball floor. I got things to do, and I'm
Speaker 2: asking you to help me move your arms.
Speaker 8: So you got cbab d's. That was see.
Speaker 7: I can't is that to be.
Speaker 2: All I want is like a eighty four, you know,
Speaker 2: that's all. I don't want a ninety two. That's why
Speaker 2: you're un into trouble. And all of a sudden you
Speaker 2: usually get like a forty eight or fifty three.
Speaker 7: Now you've got a ninety four.
Speaker 2: The teacher may say, wait a second. Imagine if Bonds
Speaker 2: was only hitting like forty one home runs forty two,
Speaker 2: very smart, you go crazy and hit seventy three, and
Speaker 2: it's all of a sudden, game over. It's like when
Speaker 2: somebody has cosmetic surgery. You want to look like you
Speaker 2: haven't had cosmetic surgery. Bonds had breast enhancement. That went
Speaker 2: to double d's. Yeah, it's like, and you look different, really,
Speaker 2: you know, maybe it's my smile. Nope, Nope, you gotta
Speaker 2: make it so it's not obvious there. Yes, Todd, I.
Speaker 8: Should not put in that next request for bared Bonds,
Speaker 8: and I was just about it.
Speaker 2: I should wait up for your days maybe other there
Speaker 2: are certain people that I don't want on the show,
Speaker 2: or we don't need on the show. It's okay, there's
Speaker 2: certain guys, certain people. Bonds wouldn't. He doesn't. He's not interesting.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna tell you anything. It would be great
Speaker 2: to say we're gonna have Bury Bonds on. I can
Speaker 2: sit there and grill him. He's not gonna tell you
Speaker 2: anywhere you judge or a coach.
Speaker 8: At the NBA All Star Game, he did something I
Speaker 8: thought NBA All Star Weekend out of.
Speaker 2: The Little Bay area. Yeah, I get that. I mean
Speaker 2: you still beloved there, so you know whatever. He's he's
Speaker 2: all yours. Nobody else wants him. He's all yours. All right,

Speaker 2: season so far thirty two.
Speaker 4: Wood Stall Day Stata a day Stannata day.
Speaker 2: This is the stat of the Day. Stat of the
Speaker 2: Day brought to you by Panini America. Caate Cunningham has
Speaker 2: been great and he will be on one of the
Speaker 2: first three All NBA teams. He will be and rightfully
Speaker 2: so he's played extremely well. All right, we'll get phone
Speaker 2: calls coming up eight seven seven three DP show JJ
Speaker 2: Watt will join us. Coming up next hour. We'll talk
Speaker 2: about the tush push and do you modify it or
Speaker 2: do you get rid of it or you to leave
Speaker 2: it as is. Mel kiper Draft Expert has put out
Speaker 2: his mock draft ESPN plus. The Titans Abdull Carter, Penn
Speaker 2: State linebacker or edge. The Browns take cam Ward, Giants
Speaker 2: take Travis Hunter, Patriots take Will Campbell offensive tackle. The
Speaker 2: Bags take Mason Graham defensive tackle out of Michigan. The
Speaker 2: Raiders get Ashton Genty, The Jets take Shador Sanders. Okay,
Speaker 2: Saints take Tyler Warren, the great tight end out of
Speaker 2: Penn State. But once again love mel Draft Expert. But
Speaker 2: a lot can happen over the next couple of months
Speaker 2: here leading up to the draft, and a lot changes.
Speaker 2: You know, this is the time when scouts really break
Speaker 2: down film. Now you'll have scouts who go out and
Speaker 2: watch them during the season, but this is where everybody
Speaker 2: kind of gets their notes together. You go to the
Speaker 2: combine and then you come away. Now you start really
Speaker 2: drilling down and going all right, who do we want
Speaker 2: and when can we get him? What are our needs?
Speaker 2: Can we trade? Is this guy a potential steal? Is
Speaker 2: this a guy who might fall? Is this a guy
Speaker 2: who might fall and we'll catch him. Maybe we get
Speaker 2: somebody in the second round, third round. That's what you're
Speaker 2: hoping for because every year, every year, it seems like
Speaker 2: and it's like the three weeks leading up to the draft,
Speaker 2: somebody's going up, somebody's coming down. Happens every draft, and
Speaker 2: then the following week it'll be somebody else who's going
Speaker 2: up or somebody else who's coming down. And sometimes the
Speaker 2: information is leaked because a team wants to make sure
Speaker 2: that you put it out there that they're not interested,
Speaker 2: or they'll say, hey, I'm hearing some negative things while
Speaker 2: they might still really want that person. This is business
Speaker 2: is it's no different than other walks of life. Everybody
Speaker 2: has an agenda here and you're going to hear those
Speaker 2: agenda agendas through different analysts or insiders. You know the
Speaker 2: next six weeks. It happens every single year and it's
Speaker 2: not an exciting draft. You get a lot of defensive linemen,
Speaker 2: not edge guys. Got a lot of defensive linemen. A
Speaker 2: lot of offensive linemen. Let me see the mothership and
Speaker 2: NFL network dress that up. May not care about tip
Speaker 2: and picks here being like, I don't care, Yes, Marvin, Wait.
Speaker 7: The interior lineman. It might be a thing because of
Speaker 7: what Jalen Carter and Chris Jones have done. They might say, Okay,
Speaker 7: we might have the next Chris Jones or Jalen Carter.
Speaker 7: So that might bring a little excitement to a fan base.
Speaker 2: I get it, I get it, But I'm just talking
Speaker 2: about content. We're going to the draft. I need things
Speaker 2: to talk about.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, then I'm out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Pully Seeing a lot.
Speaker 3: Of mock drafts have Cleveland number two taken quarterback like
Speaker 3: mel had it is that fixing a problem or compounding
Speaker 3: a problem with their quarterback position?
Speaker 2: Oh? I think it's fixing because if I get cam Ward,
Speaker 2: I'm going to have Deshaun Watson maybe for a year.
Speaker 2: He's not going to play again, right then I get
Speaker 2: rid of him, and now I have cam Ward. If
Speaker 2: you believe cam Ward is a franchise quarterback, great, So
Speaker 2: you made a mistake, a big mistake, financial mistake, and
Speaker 2: now you can move on from him and if it's
Speaker 2: a career ending injury, do the Browns get compensated? Do
Speaker 2: they get helped out? With the salary cap? There? And
Speaker 2: the Browns have to decide, like where are they right now? Now?
Speaker 2: I think that's the hard thing for teams to do.
Speaker 2: Are we good? Are we like Jacksonville? I thought Jacksonville
Speaker 2: was going to win the division this past year at
Speaker 2: four wins. So I don't know if they think they're
Speaker 2: good or maybe they realize they aren't good. Now, how
Speaker 2: does that affect your draft? The Cowboys have always thought
Speaker 2: that they were great, and at times they were really good.
Speaker 2: But then do you make a mistake by not getting
Speaker 2: somebody for the future? Do you make a mistake by
Speaker 2: not going all in? Remember they were all in this
Speaker 2: season in the offseason and didn't do anything. But you'll
Speaker 2: have certain teams where you go, Okay, where are we?
Speaker 2: Like where are the Giants? Tough division? But where are
Speaker 2: you if you're the Giant? Are Do the Jets think
Speaker 2: they're good?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: But like you have to have that question that needs
Speaker 2: to be addressed. It needs to be answered honestly, where
Speaker 2: you go around the room and you say, are we good?
Speaker 2: Are we potentially good? Are we average? Are we bad?
Speaker 2: And that's where you need to have some real answers
Speaker 2: as you move forward instead of going, hey, everything's great, man.
Speaker 2: You know we're just one player away. No, probably not, Yeah, Paul,
Speaker 2: it does.
Speaker 3: Feel like the Jets have a good roster that underachieved,
Speaker 3: but now they're a position maybe to snag a quarterback.
Speaker 2: They could have stumbled into a good situation. Yeah, like
Speaker 2: eventually they're going to like, I mean, the odds are
Speaker 2: you can be he stupid only for so long and
Speaker 2: then eventually you somehow accident. You know, sometimes you'll take
Speaker 2: the SAT and you go, I didn't even study. I've
Speaker 2: stayed out all night and I did great. Now I
Speaker 2: wouldn't recommend that, but it feels like the Jets have
Speaker 2: been staying out all night and then go in to
Speaker 2: take the SAT and you know, they get a four. Yeah.
Speaker 4: See, I can promise you staying out all night and
Speaker 4: not studying before the SAT does not work out for you.
Speaker 2: I shouldn't say four. You get like like four hundred. No,
Speaker 2: you get four hundred for signing your name.
Speaker 4: I went in there smelling like campfire for the night
Speaker 4: before and bloodshot eyes, and I did not do well.
Speaker 2: I prepared quotation marks. I prepared and did horribly, and
Speaker 2: then I didn't prepare, and then I did enough to
Speaker 2: get into college. And so I thought that, Like I
Speaker 2: said to my mom, see I think I proved a
Speaker 2: point here, and she goes, what is that? I said,
Speaker 2: you don't need to study, be prepared, and she goes, this,
Speaker 2: in this moment, it worked for you, but don't don't
Speaker 2: use that the rest of your life. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: come on, who needs this study? Leave that to Todd
Speaker 2: Fritz exactly. Yeah, you're you're staying in your two bedroom apartment.
Speaker 2: Your mom's outside bacon cookies. You're there studying.
Speaker 8: Can't bring the girl up back and you know without
Speaker 8: being someone barge again, Hey, how we doing. Let's keep
Speaker 8: the door half opened.
Speaker 2: It didn't affect you too much. No, no, didn't affect
Speaker 2: you all right. One hour in the books on this Tuesday,
Speaker 2: Two more to go. JJ Watt will join us in
Speaker 2: about twenty minutes from now, update the poll results. We'll
Speaker 2: get to some phone calls as well. Hour two on
Speaker 2: the Way Dan Patrick Show
