Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. It's hour two on
Speaker 1: this Friday, Dan and the Dan as Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 1: They are making it interesting at the Open Championship. Tiger
Speaker 1: is going to finish up on eighteen and he is
Speaker 1: not going to make the cut. The cut projected to
Speaker 1: be even par. Tiger right now at nine over and
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if he birdied eighteen go out in style.
Speaker 1: But you certainly get the feeling that you're witnessing a
Speaker 1: week for Tiger Woods as he walks around the Old
Speaker 1: course and just at this course. I don't know how
Speaker 1: if he takes time off, if that's going to help him.
Speaker 1: I don't think it can, because how much do you
Speaker 1: heal at that age and you're not playing. Tiger has
Speaker 1: always been one of those guys who would grind, hitting
Speaker 1: balls every day, working out every day, running miles every day,
Speaker 1: and he can't do that now, Chipping and Putton, that's
Speaker 1: not going to do it. But you're watching it feels like,
Speaker 1: you know, one of the last times we're going to
Speaker 1: see Tiger Woods play in a major. At least that's
Speaker 1: the feeling I'm getting. From the broadcasters here covering this
Speaker 1: all right eight seven seven three D P show email
Speaker 1: address DP at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle a
Speaker 1: DP show the setting for the one hundred and fiftieth
Speaker 1: Open Championship the Old Course, and you can catch all
Speaker 1: the action on Peacock and NBC coming up this weekend.
Speaker 1: Poll question will I think change course? Coming up this hour.
Speaker 1: We'll let you know what that is. Adrian Woganarowski Woge
Speaker 1: will join us DeAndre Ayton staying in Phoenix to at
Speaker 1: least January, and that would be the first opportunity of
Speaker 1: Phoenix wanted to trade him that they could. I believe
Speaker 1: that he can nix a trade the first year of
Speaker 1: this contract. But we'll talk to Woge about what this
Speaker 1: means for Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets that'll be
Speaker 1: coming up in a little bit. Your phone calls are
Speaker 1: always welcome. We say good morning to those watching on Peacock.
Speaker 1: Come on in and stay a while. We have meat Friday,
Speaker 1: and that means we have not your Mama's meat loaf.
Speaker 1: This was popular the last time Tyler made this. Not
Speaker 1: your Mama's meat Loaf, don't sleep on that and baked
Speaker 1: green chili mac and cheese. Ya see, but my mom
Speaker 1: made great meat loaf. My mom didn't raw really no, no,
Speaker 1: it was always dry. Did you think it was good
Speaker 1: when you're a kid? No? Really no, I loved it. No,
Speaker 1: you know, we just ate. Not because we were eating
Speaker 1: and it was like, oh, I can't wait to eat.
Speaker 1: It was kind of a means to an end, like
Speaker 1: you got to eat now, let's get it over with
Speaker 1: and get out of here. We didn't sit around and
Speaker 1: save her a meal. We had the same meal each
Speaker 1: day of the week. It was always scheduled. What you
Speaker 1: had on Sunday, what you had on you know, Thursday, Friday.
Speaker 1: It was same meal for the most part. And it
Speaker 1: was more of just get in and get out and
Speaker 1: with six kids, get in early and get out. Or
Speaker 1: my mom would say, well, grab some raisins, or why
Speaker 1: didn't you get an apple? I go, oh my god, mom,
Speaker 1: how about bologne eating? Like, does anybody eat bullogney anymore?
Speaker 1: When's the last time you had a ballogny sandwich. It's
Speaker 1: been a little bit, but a fried bullogney sandwich. We
Speaker 1: didn't even get that. We didn't even get so I
Speaker 1: would destroy one of those right now. We did not
Speaker 1: even get fried ballogney. We got bologny, and as God
Speaker 1: is my witness, you could hold it up to the
Speaker 1: light and I could see through. My mom would have
Speaker 1: them cut that blogney's so so fine, and that quarter
Speaker 1: pound into a half pound somehow. I had two slices
Speaker 1: of wonder bread maybe American cheese, put on some mustard,
Speaker 1: and a piece of bologny that you could see through,
Speaker 1: and that would be part of the lunch that we
Speaker 1: would have. And now look at us meat Friday. Yes,
Speaker 1: my mom used to make meat loaf. I can remember
Speaker 1: her taking like those lipped in cup of soup mixes,
Speaker 1: so it had some like onions or onion ish, yeah
Speaker 1: material in it. Yeah, I as a kid, I thought
Speaker 1: it was fantastic. Yeah, I probably would still be. Well,
Speaker 1: I think when you're a kid, you don't know better.
Speaker 1: Like tomato and tomato soup and grilled cheese on Friday.
Speaker 1: I'd take that now in a cold day, Yeah, but
Speaker 1: we would have it on a hot day too. Show
Speaker 1: be a Friday in the summer and you'd be like,
Speaker 1: what do we am? Hey, we got some hot tomato
Speaker 1: soup right out of the Campbell's soup can and tomato
Speaker 1: and grilled cheese. That's where they do that thing. No,
Speaker 1: it's good for you because it's hot, so that it's
Speaker 1: hot outside, it's actually gonna make you cooler by eating
Speaker 1: this hot soup. Yeah, more good for you seating because
Speaker 1: my grandmother didn't explain anything to me, like you want
Speaker 1: to starve. No, there's not kids in Africa starving. This
Speaker 1: kid's down the street starving. Shut up and eat this Marv. Yes, Polly.
Speaker 1: Did you guys ever get left with your dad and
Speaker 1: your mom had to go out of town for some reason,
Speaker 1: It had turned into Lord of the flies in about
Speaker 1: three minutes, Like my dad gave us chocolate cake for breakfast,
Speaker 1: or he took us out to a bar, got his
Speaker 1: bowls at chili for dinner. All rules were out the
Speaker 1: window in one day. I just remember when my mom
Speaker 1: would you know, if she was out of town, we
Speaker 1: somehow ended up at the bar and my dad would
Speaker 1: be at the bar, and we'd be we'd be if
Speaker 1: you go to Ireland or Scotland, and in particular on
Speaker 1: a Sunday Sunday afternoon, parents are at the bar and
Speaker 1: the kids are you know, off the bar, running around
Speaker 1: the bar and it's just a different environment that you
Speaker 1: would go there and family went there. But I just
Speaker 1: remember we somehow my mom would not be there, and
Speaker 1: we'd end up at the bar and I'd have a
Speaker 1: fan to orange and my dad would have, you know,
Speaker 1: his beer in his hook. He felt like the king
Speaker 1: of the world. Though, didn't you have the kid when
Speaker 1: he would take us individually. You'd take me to the
Speaker 1: American Legion, and I'd be like, yeah, I got to
Speaker 1: go to the Legion. Whatever you got to do with dad,
Speaker 1: and you got that many kids and you got to
Speaker 1: do it by yourself, be like, all right, got to
Speaker 1: go to the Legion. And I always thought the Legion
Speaker 1: was a big deal. And and even now I'm trying
Speaker 1: to join the American Legion right down the block because
Speaker 1: my dad was a member of the American Legion. And
Speaker 1: I think you can do it as friends of or
Speaker 1: family of somebody who was in a foreign war, and
Speaker 1: my dad was in the Korean War. But yeah, I
Speaker 1: want to join the American Legion. I don't know, just
Speaker 1: as a tribute to my father. It's kind of an
Speaker 1: awesome place to go drink beers. Yeah, and they're cheap beers.
Speaker 1: Go in there and get to go down in the
Speaker 1: basement sit listen to stories. Yes, tome a hazing ritual.
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a it's a little bit
Speaker 1: tougher than you think, because I thought an, I'm walking,
Speaker 1: I'm Dan Patrick. Ay, my dad served in Korea. I'd
Speaker 1: like to join others some paperwork and we need proof
Speaker 1: that your dad was in the Korean War. I do
Speaker 1: have to tie me up in the basement and report things.
Speaker 1: I'm like, it was just a loud of music. It's
Speaker 1: not like I'm a prisoner of war. They're going to
Speaker 1: torture me down there. I don't really appreciate that humor either.
Speaker 1: Now they don't drink another beer, I can't. Yes, boy,
Speaker 1: I think my dad was in Knights of Columbus and
Speaker 1: a couple other of those clubs. Yeah, And I always
Speaker 1: used to see him. He'd have like a sword he
Speaker 1: had to bring and like like they'd have to like
Speaker 1: certain things they had to wear, like a sash, And
Speaker 1: I was like, that looks really like that. I don't
Speaker 1: know what grey night. Yeah, it was like, yeah, he
Speaker 1: was a third grade night. I don't know what it was,
Speaker 1: but I remember he ended up bringing me when I was.
Speaker 1: I was like eleven, and all it was with thirty
Speaker 1: dudes sitting in at a hall drinking beer that was
Speaker 1: Knights of Columbus was huge. Nights Columbus. I think it was. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was huge in my family. Really in my town,
Speaker 1: everybody's you know, like a birthday party or first communion
Speaker 1: graduation parties was always at the Nights. After Saint Patrick's day,
Speaker 1: he went back to the Knights. All I know is
Speaker 1: that if we didn't go to the All the American Legion,
Speaker 1: we went to the pleasure In. And I just love
Speaker 1: that name. And I went back to my hometown last
Speaker 1: weekend and I drove by the pleasure In and I
Speaker 1: was with my son. He goes, Dad, we got to
Speaker 1: stop in and get a beer at the pleasure In.
Speaker 1: Your dad would appreciate that. It's like, all right, stop
Speaker 1: in and then you see people. You open up your
Speaker 1: high school scrapbook and you're going on, I know that oh,
Speaker 1: I know that guy. I know that guy. And then
Speaker 1: they look at you like, uh, oh okay, came back
Speaker 1: to your hometown. Oh look he came back. Y think
Speaker 1: you're so great? Yeah, yeah, hey talking haird Hey why
Speaker 1: don't you win a sports emmy. Yeah, pot, maybe we
Speaker 1: should start some type of social club for guys of
Speaker 1: our age who likes sports and beer and food and
Speaker 1: just make an excuse to go and meet up and
Speaker 1: do exactly that. Well, my brothers in a book club,
Speaker 1: but they don't read the book, right, so what do
Speaker 1: we call it? Call it book club? Yeah, but it's
Speaker 1: actually a bar and it's just called book club, Like
Speaker 1: I'm going to book club tonight, Like okay, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just called book club. Yeah, what what book are you reading?
Speaker 1: Or the library? We'll call it the lie I'm going
Speaker 1: to the library. But it's a bar. Yes, it's probably
Speaker 1: more like bookie club. You're all hanging out and you're
Speaker 1: betting on the games and just watch it and seeing
Speaker 1: who can win what and play cards and all that. No,
Speaker 1: it's not, that's not what it is. Been don't gamble
Speaker 1: it don't So that wouldn't work. The bookie club. We
Speaker 1: just come up with a fake thing like Men of
Speaker 1: the Shield. It sounds written you know regal. No, that's
Speaker 1: a marvel. That sounds sound like a moved. We need
Speaker 1: something the regal sounding. No, I like book club. We
Speaker 1: had this one in my town, the ancient order of Hibernians,
Speaker 1: and it was like, what kind of crazy club is
Speaker 1: that you're getting into human sacrifice? Oh my gosh, you're
Speaker 1: what dungeons and dragons, skull and bones. Don't they have
Speaker 1: that private society at Yale? Is it cold Skull? I've
Speaker 1: walked by that building before and it looks exactly like
Speaker 1: you think it would look. It screams go away. It's
Speaker 1: like hidden down this alley and there's no lights on.
Speaker 1: I was invited when I was at the Mothership to
Speaker 1: go and speak there, but I didn't want to go
Speaker 1: to Yale. Yeah. I didn't think I was worthy enough
Speaker 1: to be on the Yale campus there, let's put it
Speaker 1: that way. So I decided not to do that. All right,
Speaker 1: Woude is going to join us? Coming up a little
Speaker 1: bit here. A couple of phone calls as well. What's
Speaker 1: poll question for hour two on this Friday? Well, our one, Dan,
Speaker 1: we had who would you rather have joined your conference?
Speaker 1: Notre Dame or Clemson, Florida State, Miami? Right now, sixty
Speaker 1: five percent say Notre Dame. Dang, that's messed up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I do think that's a real possibility. I know
Speaker 1: people have denied you know what. My report was from
Speaker 1: a source a couple of days ago, but it was
Speaker 1: reiterated to me this morning. Paul Finbaum even then came
Speaker 1: out and said, Clemson in Florida State looking like they
Speaker 1: really want to get out of the ACC. It's inevitable. Now.
Speaker 1: The ACC is not a football conference. It's basketball and
Speaker 1: all that. Everything is dictated by the football programs. Everything.
Speaker 1: I don't care how big your basketball program is. It's
Speaker 1: college football is you know, that's who's running all of
Speaker 1: the sports here. And we've seen that with the conference. Really,
Speaker 1: David Arkansas, Hi, Dave, what's on your mind today? They
Speaker 1: call me Pittsburgh days and it's obviously it's obvious I
Speaker 1: don't know how to work a knee scooter. But that's
Speaker 1: not what I'm talking about right now, college football. And
Speaker 1: I'm going to look at this from maybe a backhanded way.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's bad enough now with Oklahoma and
Speaker 1: Texas coming in, I don't think Arkansas can compete. What
Speaker 1: is is those kind of schools Arkansas saves, Vanderbilt, Kansas, Baylor,
Speaker 1: these one that are in these big conferences that are
Speaker 1: going to end up going to this well, whatever the
Speaker 1: thing is going to be and Dave Arkansas has money.
Speaker 1: You got Walmart money down there, nil money. Check out
Speaker 1: the basketball team. But Muscleman's done there, so nobody cares
Speaker 1: about Vanderbilt. You know, for a lot of these schools
Speaker 1: Kansas football. Nobody cares Kansas basketball. But you know your
Speaker 1: revenue producing it's football, and they're gonna be some programs
Speaker 1: that are kind of kicked to the curb. Here Andrew
Speaker 1: in Atlanta, Hi, Andrew, what's on your mind? Boys? Happy
Speaker 1: meet Friday? Out there in radio Land? I had a
Speaker 1: similar thought, DP, what not just what's gonna happen to
Speaker 1: these schools? But how about some of these conferences being
Speaker 1: picked off? The Big twelve, the Pac twelve acc Why
Speaker 1: why don't they just go out and find these men
Speaker 1: major schools to say, you know what, forget you guys,
Speaker 1: I'm going to pick off the UCF. I'm gonna pick
Speaker 1: off the boys. You say it, and would starts this
Speaker 1: giant chain reaction of diving deeper to those mid majors.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you thought about that, but just
Speaker 1: curious you guys, stay sweet on this meat Friday? All right? Well,
Speaker 1: thank you, Andrew. It's about who can make you money.
Speaker 1: USC UCLA. Now I got the West coast, you know,
Speaker 1: am I surprised? You know, the Big twelve tried to
Speaker 1: go after USC years ago. So it's this isn't foreign
Speaker 1: any of this, But you know what's fraudulent is how
Speaker 1: they've approached this to make it seem like the players
Speaker 1: are greedy. No, the chancellors in presidents, they're greedy. That's
Speaker 1: how we got to this point. So anything you get
Speaker 1: with name, image and likeness, I cheer you on. I
Speaker 1: champion that cause because that's what this is. Now. In
Speaker 1: five years from now, we're going to have the NFL
Speaker 1: version of college football. I truly believe you'll have. Let's
Speaker 1: say you do sixteen sixteen, sixteen sixteen, so maybe maybe
Speaker 1: you have sixty four you know, I don't know, but
Speaker 1: you got one hundred and twenty five. Now I would
Speaker 1: probably have it down to forty at the most, and
Speaker 1: then you split it up twenty twenty ten, ten in
Speaker 1: each you know, division or conference there, and then you
Speaker 1: just sort of have you know, your March madness. Then
Speaker 1: you do that in January. Yeah, Polly, and I also
Speaker 1: imagine if they that was like that sixty teens fifteens whatever,
Speaker 1: and there's an actual commissioner who handles scheduling. And you
Speaker 1: don't let some scrub game in early November where Alabama's
Speaker 1: playing Wafford in early November, which is a throwaway TV game.
Speaker 1: It's just it's the waste of everyone's time. No one
Speaker 1: goes at Alabama. And but imagine if Alabama is now
Speaker 1: playing A and M November fifth, Mike and Washington, then
Speaker 1: we'll take a break. Woad will join is coming up? Hey, Mike, Hey,
Speaker 1: how's it going down? Great? U? Six aftutely fast six
Speaker 1: three and I'm hard one ninety. Hey, I wanted to
Speaker 1: give you a call. I've been listening to you for
Speaker 1: a long time and watching you for a long time,
Speaker 1: even back when I was a kid. I actually dressed
Speaker 1: up for you as Halloween one time, but uh my
Speaker 1: brother was rich eyes and um but uh we uh.
Speaker 1: I've the last year year and a half, I've just
Speaker 1: been really dealing with a lot of my depression and
Speaker 1: just in my head. And Mike is good. I got
Speaker 1: a great job, I got a great family. Um, everything's good.
Speaker 1: But I've just been really stuck in my head with
Speaker 1: some depression issues and listening to you talk for a while.
Speaker 1: It is really um helped me, you know, seek help
Speaker 1: find it and you know, and get it right. And
Speaker 1: yesterday when I was listening to talk about doing some damage,
Speaker 1: it just made me laugh like the whole day. Damn.
Speaker 1: It's like what you got, what you guys do, what
Speaker 1: do you guys do? Is just amazing. I say, I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm in the studio listen and watching you
Speaker 1: and has really helped me out, you know, as a
Speaker 1: human being. Thank mine. I just wanted to call and
Speaker 1: say thank you, thank you. There's no shame in talking
Speaker 1: about it. Depression, There's no shame in it. There shouldn't
Speaker 1: be any shame in it. And hopefully those days are over.
Speaker 1: If you feel like you need it, then you need it.
Speaker 1: Todd said that he was tied out a window of
Speaker 1: seventeen to twenty five where he was good looking and
Speaker 1: he was jacked, and he said, you know, it's a
Speaker 1: shame that I could have done damage during those years.
Speaker 1: I would have got away to college that have stayed
Speaker 1: home with my parents in our apartment in Brooklyn. Who
Speaker 1: knows what might have been, but I'm glad. He was
Speaker 1: amused by that it had made him have a great
Speaker 1: doing damage. The Lost years have done thirty for thirty Yeah,
Speaker 1: the one part serious. Yeah, let's take a break. Woge
Speaker 1: will join us. We'll see if he'll drop a WOJE
Speaker 1: bomb here. We're back after this and the damn Patrick
Speaker 1: Show Tunnel to Towers Foundation is building the Do Good
Speaker 1: Village in Landa Lakes, Florida, first of its kind community
Speaker 1: with over one hundred homes for the program recipients. And
Speaker 1: it's a place where gold Star families, families of the
Speaker 1: fallen first responders, those catastrophically injured heroes, and they live together, neighbors,
Speaker 1: understand each other, what they've been through going through the
Speaker 1: place where the children of the families can grow up together.
Speaker 1: And you can be part of this. Because they want
Speaker 1: to make sure that we do good and never forget
Speaker 1: the sacrifices that our heroes have made for our country
Speaker 1: and our communities. And when I was first asked about it,
Speaker 1: I thought this a wonderful gesture. If we're able to
Speaker 1: alert people to this, help America's greatest heroes and their
Speaker 1: families heal together, make the Do Good Village the first
Speaker 1: of many communities like it across our nation. This is
Speaker 1: where you come in and you can play a role.

Speaker 1: shocked me. And I'm not easily shocked by something that
Speaker 1: Paully would say, but this one did. Paully said that
Speaker 1: he would like to complement Todd. You know, so where
Speaker 1: I sit, if you aren't watching the show, is my
Speaker 1: back is to Todd, so I can't see him. I
Speaker 1: don't have a rear view mirror unless I turn on. Also,
Speaker 1: I'm blind in my left eye, so when I turn around,
Speaker 1: it's really still hard to see Todd, so I don't
Speaker 1: see toddle Lotter show. I turn around. I think Fritzie
Speaker 1: looks really good today. And here's why Todd's hair is short.
Speaker 1: His beard is letting it grow out a little bit,
Speaker 1: but not too scruffy. I think the one piece short hair,
Speaker 1: short beard thing and a little son on the face
Speaker 1: is working for Todd. I think he should stick with it.
Speaker 1: Seeton went to a beard a long time ago, and
Speaker 1: he stuck with it. Yes, i'd me nine years ago,
Speaker 1: and he's stuck with it wire to wire. Does still?
Speaker 1: I keep it crop pretty good? Wait? Are you not
Speaker 1: buying this compliment that Paul he's given Fritzie. I'm sure
Speaker 1: it's very I'm sure it's very honest. I'm just not
Speaker 1: really sure why he's sharing it. Well, I just notice
Speaker 1: if we're supposed to share. I appreciate you. Know that
Speaker 1: actor Christopher Marloney used to be on SVU. He's on
Speaker 1: the new SVU. If Todd lifted weights for about three months,
Speaker 1: he could he could pull off a Christopher MARLONEI look
Speaker 1: because of the beard and from Yester we talked about yesterday.
Speaker 1: We talked about how he looks like Bert Young. I
Speaker 1: think today Todd looks fresh. So from yesterday looked like
Speaker 1: Burt Young from Rocky. Today he's Christopher Maloney. What the heck?
Speaker 1: I'm not happy with Todd's leg hair situation. I'm not
Speaker 1: really sure why that look. I'm keeping Wode, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm waiting here. He's got more important things to do.
Speaker 1: Adrian Wodsanarowski, ESPN senior NBA insider, Who if they called
Speaker 1: right now, would you hang up the phone to take
Speaker 1: that call? Wode? Any number of individuals, well, not not
Speaker 1: that man, I mean, which one would you know? Let's
Speaker 1: say it had to do with m Durant, Donovan, Mitchell, Kyrie,
Speaker 1: anybody else. So I don't think there's anybody who's gonna
Speaker 1: call me this morning that would um be engaged in
Speaker 1: a trade of any of those guys. I think all
Speaker 1: of those are slow moving, okay processes, So I don't
Speaker 1: think there's anything that would be imminent on any of
Speaker 1: those fronts right now. I think after eight and you know,
Speaker 1: after the action yesterday with DeAndre and signing the offer
Speaker 1: sheet getting it matched almost immediately, I think there may
Speaker 1: be I mean, sometimes these are famous last words around
Speaker 1: NBA free agency and deals, but I don't sense there's
Speaker 1: anything that's in the short term offing among the big
Speaker 1: names you just mentioned DeAndre Eton signing means what to
Speaker 1: the other free agents? Well, the other you mean the
Speaker 1: other players who might be traded, right, Yeah, I'm sorry, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's okay. But it's it's almost like perpetual free agency.
Speaker 1: It's like the transfer portal in the NBA. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think it's harder for Phoenix. It's not impossible, but I
Speaker 1: do think it's much harder for them to get involved
Speaker 1: than a Kevin Durant deal. I don't think Brooklyn's sarily
Speaker 1: had an interest in doing a sign and trade where
Speaker 1: they would have gotten eight in and then extended him.
Speaker 1: But there would have been perhaps scenarios where eight and
Speaker 1: could have gone somewhere else and it would have moved
Speaker 1: another asset to Brooklyn that maybe they were more interested in.
Speaker 1: So now you look at Phoenix and you can't trade DeAndre,
Speaker 1: and now you can't trade Devin Booker. They weren't going
Speaker 1: to trade Devin Booker. But and then you look down
Speaker 1: the roster. Mckel Bridges is enough standing young player, Cam
Speaker 1: Johnson's a good young player. They've got, They've got picks
Speaker 1: that may not be enough to kind of deliver the
Speaker 1: massive package that Brooklyn wants for Kevin Durant. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's posturing, and you'd certainly know better
Speaker 1: than I would, but I still feel like Kevin Durant
Speaker 1: starts the season in Brooklyn. Am I way off base here?
Speaker 1: It's a very distinct possibility, I think, especially because he's
Speaker 1: got four years left on his deal, Kyrie Irving is
Speaker 1: still under contract for another year, that they don't just
Speaker 1: have to go do a deal that they don't love,
Speaker 1: and they don't love anything that's out there right now.
Speaker 1: And you know, I think for teams who would trade
Speaker 1: for a player like Kevin Durant, what's your balancing is
Speaker 1: if we got our in for if we just kind
Speaker 1: of gut our team of picks and good players and
Speaker 1: we bring Kevin Durant in, are we necessarily closer to
Speaker 1: a championship or do we have Kevin Durant but not
Speaker 1: enough around him. There's a balance there, and Brooklyn wants
Speaker 1: to get back as much as anybody's gotten back for anybody,
Speaker 1: And so they can keep that posture right now because
Speaker 1: the season still always away and he's under contract and
Speaker 1: and so yeah, I do DAN think that it's conceivable
Speaker 1: that he's back or at least, you know, maybe at
Speaker 1: the start of training camp. But these things can change
Speaker 1: quick they can they do. But I think right now
Speaker 1: the marketplaces, you know, there's Miami has a difficult time.
Speaker 1: Miami is another team that would very much like Kevin Durant,
Speaker 1: but they're limited in the deals they can do. Bam
Speaker 1: out of Bio can't go to Brooklyn if Ben Simmons
Speaker 1: is on the roster because they both have those designated
Speaker 1: rookie Max extension deals. You can't have two of those
Speaker 1: on a roster. So that means you've got to kind
Speaker 1: of move pieces around to and it's made it more
Speaker 1: complex to get a deal done. Toronto Toronto and Brooklyn
Speaker 1: Toronto has had. They've showed no inclination that they would
Speaker 1: put Scottie Barnes, the rookie of the year, in any
Speaker 1: deal with Brooklyn. I don't think Brooklyn's interested in talking
Speaker 1: to Toronto about much beyond much about any deal that
Speaker 1: didn't include Scottie Barnes. Now that today, could that be
Speaker 1: different a week or a month or five months from now.
Speaker 1: Of course, if it changed, I think that's where they
Speaker 1: are today. In Midgelli, I've asked four different NBA insiders
Speaker 1: analysts on the show, and all four didn't have a
Speaker 1: reason or an answer for the following, Why does Kevin
Speaker 1: Durant want out of Brooklyn? I don't I'm not going
Speaker 1: to try to speak for Kevin Durant. I don't think
Speaker 1: he's shared that with certainly hasn't shared it publicly. I
Speaker 1: think in a very broad sense, I think part of
Speaker 1: the reason he's had I think part of it is
Speaker 1: he hasn't liked how he hasn't liked how it's gone.
Speaker 1: He didn't like how this year went. But yeah, to
Speaker 1: sit here and say there's one reason is this, I
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of factors that always contribute to
Speaker 1: these things. And I think he's going to have to
Speaker 1: speak to it. I don't want to. I don't want
Speaker 1: to try to speak for him on it. I think
Speaker 1: he's going to have to at some point. I would
Speaker 1: think at some point he's going to address that. But
Speaker 1: I just think, um, it's been a disappointment and you
Speaker 1: know again, just signed a new four year deal this year.
Speaker 1: You know, I think Golden State winning. I think part
Speaker 1: of it there's I think part of it. There's a
Speaker 1: part of it that I think is the criticism that's
Speaker 1: come with Golden State winning, the timing of the Warrior's winning,
Speaker 1: and then people sort of looking back at the decision
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant made and who he came to Brooklyn with
Speaker 1: and how that's gone. I think they're all factors in it.
Speaker 1: But guys do change their minds, thinking evolves, it goes
Speaker 1: back and forth. That's the nature of this stuff. And again,
Speaker 1: because he's under contract for so long, I do think
Speaker 1: time is on the net side to try to figure
Speaker 1: this out. Donovan Mitchell, it feels like they're open for
Speaker 1: business with Donovan Mitchell. Does Donovan'll want to leave Utah?
Speaker 1: I think Donovan Mitchell understands the nature of the business
Speaker 1: where the Jazz, I think, knowing that they kind of
Speaker 1: felt like they kind of peaked with the roster they had,
Speaker 1: and understands that he kind of sees the direction they're going.
Speaker 1: So I don't think he's resisting the fact that he's
Speaker 1: in talk. I think he just understands this is the
Speaker 1: reality of it. And you know, I think those they're
Speaker 1: not good enough right now. And Danny Ainge has shown.
Speaker 1: I think with a deal he got for Rudy Gobert,
Speaker 1: you can see the potential in Utah of having the
Speaker 1: kind of pool of draft picks that Oklahoma City had.
Speaker 1: He got five essentially five for Golbert. Do you want
Speaker 1: to count Walker Tessler, who was their number one pick
Speaker 1: this year? But I think you're gonna you would get
Speaker 1: a lot for You would get picks and players for
Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell, and you look around the rest of their roster.
Speaker 1: There's other guys if he started trading off, and they
Speaker 1: could be in position to just reboot the whole thing.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think he's accepting of the reality of
Speaker 1: where the organization is with stuff. We're talking to Adrian
Speaker 1: wood Janowski, ESPN senior NBA insider. I want to be
Speaker 1: fair to you, and it feels like if I ask
Speaker 1: you these that you don't want to speculate, because even
Speaker 1: when you speculate, then people might misconstrue that as being
Speaker 1: news or a report. So that's right. Yeah, So I
Speaker 1: know you're cautious in doing this, and I respect that.
Speaker 1: I just the sense of and it's hard to ask
Speaker 1: it without wanting an answer from you, you know, just
Speaker 1: so it doesn't become Wode says, it's not wog you know, speculates,
Speaker 1: But even then it's going to be news. So I
Speaker 1: want to be fair and I want the audience to
Speaker 1: know that as well. Whatever it is, then you can
Speaker 1: just ask him, all right, thank you, all right? So
Speaker 1: the Lakers do what before the end of this For
Speaker 1: the start of the season, I think the Lakers still
Speaker 1: try to add another guard, another guard who can shoot,
Speaker 1: who can be a playmaker. You know, Buddy Healed in
Speaker 1: Indiana is somebody they've had interested in. They talked to
Speaker 1: the Pacers on him, Eric Gordon in Houston, both of
Speaker 1: whom also are former Rob Polanka clients when he was
Speaker 1: an agent, so he knows them particularly well, kind of
Speaker 1: knows what he gets with them. I think those are realistic.
Speaker 1: And then it's you know, the Kyrie Irving. They did
Speaker 1: touch base with them that time. There's really not been
Speaker 1: an ongoing dialogue on that. I think Brooklyn, I think,
Speaker 1: is dealing with the Durant situation first, and and so
Speaker 1: the price would be much less to try to and
Speaker 1: you're not necessarily those aren't necessarily Westbrook trades either with
Speaker 1: the other two. So I do think there's a chance
Speaker 1: they could do something like that. They could also do nothing,
Speaker 1: but I think the Lakers will also have an opportunity
Speaker 1: because they have their picks. Once the season starts, there's
Speaker 1: going to be trade possibilities, so they don't have to
Speaker 1: gas those assets right now. But again, it may not
Speaker 1: be what all Laker fans are hoping for, which is
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving. But buddy, hell there Gordon. Those are good
Speaker 1: players and they would conceivably help the team. So I
Speaker 1: think those are realistic trade possibilities that those are guys
Speaker 1: they've been engaged on there. I'm sure there's going to
Speaker 1: be others that they're checking in on. I know those
Speaker 1: two specifically, and both of those teams are in rebuilds
Speaker 1: Indianna Houston, so they're okay, they're looking. You know, they'll
Speaker 1: move those players that they can get back, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of whether you know, whatever the pick, uh, whatever
Speaker 1: it is, draft pick wise they would like to get
Speaker 1: from La Wogs. Thanks for spending time, as always, we
Speaker 1: appreciate it, and uh, next time, maybe speculate so we
Speaker 1: can get like a wog bomb out of this. I
Speaker 1: could get some publicity. That'd be kind of nice. You've
Speaker 1: got it. Have a great weekend, guys. Thank you, Hateranowski.
Speaker 1: I don't know if Wog picked up on that. I
Speaker 1: meant that, Yeah, sarcastic anyways, see it. Yeah, I have
Speaker 1: a great day. Uh yeah, I mean he has to
Speaker 1: be careful that when you do speculate, then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden it's a report. And I and I get it.
Speaker 1: I mean we take things and run with it, and
Speaker 1: lesser things have been said where you go. I'm hearing.
Speaker 1: That's all it takes is somebody to say something. Then
Speaker 1: somebody goes I'm hearing. Well, nobody calls you on, Matt,
Speaker 1: I'm hearing. Speaking of which segue, Doug Gottlieb, the radio
Speaker 1: host who has been on this program, hosted this program,
Speaker 1: is being sued by an agent, Freddie Freeman's agent. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about that when we come back right after this.

Speaker 1: you get your podcast during the live look in if
Speaker 1: you're watching on Peacock. We were watching a Peloton ad
Speaker 1: with Christopher Maloney. Was that Law and Order SVU that
Speaker 1: he was one of the stars, Yeah, and now he's
Speaker 1: back with the Law and Order organized Crime. I think, Okay,
Speaker 1: good looking guy, sixty one years of age, great shape,
Speaker 1: and Pauli goes, oh, he's got a workout routine that
Speaker 1: he does for Peloton. You want to see it. I go, Okay,
Speaker 1: comes on the screen and his crotch is blurred out.
Speaker 1: He's completely it's pixelated and he is completely nude doing
Speaker 1: word counts and so you got my attention there. But
Speaker 1: Pauli thinks that if Todd got in shape, he could
Speaker 1: look like Christopher Maloney. Yes, Todd, now that's a compliment,
Speaker 1: because yesterday you were really sad that we said that
Speaker 1: you look like Burt Young from Rocky. About that okay?
Speaker 1: And now Christopher Maloney like, it's not that far away,
Speaker 1: which is amazing that you can go from nine years
Speaker 1: older than you, who wouldn't want to look like that?
Speaker 1: Todd that he's a he's a good looking guy. That's
Speaker 1: a big reason why I watch Law and Order. They
Speaker 1: have interesting stories. But that's a he's kind of dreaming.
Speaker 1: I think, what if we brought in a trainer, we
Speaker 1: gave you four months. If I can get transformed into
Speaker 1: anything remotely like that, that that's who wouldn't want to
Speaker 1: look like that? Well, it's it's not like it happens
Speaker 1: magically overnight, but you'd have to do the work. Everybody
Speaker 1: still have all the cheeseburgers you might be able to eat.
Speaker 1: I think you know that more often because you're working
Speaker 1: out if you wanted to, and maybe you don't. It's okay,
Speaker 1: I do want to look closer to that than okay
Speaker 1: right now, I know, but you can't. You can't be
Speaker 1: mad if I say you look like Burt Yell. I
Speaker 1: can from Rocky. I can get mad, but that's that's
Speaker 1: it is what it is, all right. Well, a very
Speaker 1: interesting ad there. Christopher Maloney and the baseball agent Casey
Speaker 1: Close sued Doug Gottlieb Fox Sports Radio for libel yesterday,
Speaker 1: allegingd that Gottlieb quote falsely and recklessly to fame Close
Speaker 1: and EXCEL Sports Management in a tweet that claim he
Speaker 1: had not presented a contract offer to Freddie Freeman, the
Speaker 1: first baseman for the Dodgers, during free agency, according to
Speaker 1: a complaint filed in a New York court, So you
Speaker 1: go back to prior to signing the six year, one
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty two million dollars deal with the Dodgers.
Speaker 1: Gottlieb tweeted back on June twenty ninth that Casey Close
Speaker 1: never told Freddie Freeman about the Braves final offer. That's
Speaker 1: why Freeman fired him, an allegation, the complaint says, is
Speaker 1: false and has prompted death threats towards Close and tens
Speaker 1: of millions of dollars in damages to Close and XL
Speaker 1: Sports Management. In a statement, the agent says, although we
Speaker 1: gave mister Gottlieb an opportunity to retract his false statement,
Speaker 1: he failed to do so. The compliant is that right
Speaker 1: set the record straight to see what occurred during the
Speaker 1: negotiations with the Atlanta Braves. Oh complaint, my bad. The
Speaker 1: complaint sets the record straight. Gottlieban is a lawyer, did
Speaker 1: not return message for messages from ESPN seeking comment. We
Speaker 1: did reach out to Doug, and Doug says that he
Speaker 1: cannot talk about this right now, but if he wanted to,
Speaker 1: then we wanted to give him the opportunity. So let's
Speaker 1: see what else. If his private figure status is upheld
Speaker 1: by a court in the Southern District of New York,
Speaker 1: Close would need to prove gottlid statement was false and
Speaker 1: made with negligence. For public figures, the threshold is the
Speaker 1: defendant publicized the statement with actual malice or as the
Speaker 1: Supreme Court defined, knowledge that is false, or with reckless
Speaker 1: disregard of whether it was false or not. Yes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a debate whether Casey Close,
Speaker 1: who is an agent for famous people, is a public
Speaker 1: figure or not because he to the average person, may
Speaker 1: it may or may not be famous himself or well known.
Speaker 1: So this hinges on is he famous enough to be defamed? Yes,
Speaker 1: if you're a public figure, there's a lot more wiggle
Speaker 1: room to be defamed. It's hard to if you're a
Speaker 1: public figure and someone says on about you that's even
Speaker 1: not true. It's hard to sue if you're famous or
Speaker 1: public figure. If you're not a public figure anymore of
Speaker 1: a civilian, the threshold is easier when you file your complaint.
Speaker 1: And Casey Close and XL Sports Management did reach out
Speaker 1: to Doug and say, you know, just retract this, and
Speaker 1: Doug reportedly refused to do that. But how do you
Speaker 1: enduring discovery? Like what do you what can you find
Speaker 1: that's going to back up either side of this? Because
Speaker 1: how does Casey Close prove that he is famous or
Speaker 1: not famous? Now? Is he get can he prove that
Speaker 1: he's he wants to be declared h not a public
Speaker 1: figure for the purposes of his lawsuit against Doug Godlie,
Speaker 1: And one of the things he would have to prove
Speaker 1: with Godlie his negligence. Did Doug how thorough was he
Speaker 1: in his reporting? Did he reach out to multiple sides
Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. Well, you can't be
Speaker 1: de famed unless you're famous, So he has to say
Speaker 1: that I am famous, not that I'm not. He could
Speaker 1: be slam slam it. Libel is the written word libel
Speaker 1: and slander. It's more even if you're not famous, it
Speaker 1: could do because it hurts his agency. It could hurt
Speaker 1: his his But is this about him being defamed or
Speaker 1: his sports agency being In the lawsuit it says both. Okay,
Speaker 1: but you have to be famous to be defamed, because
Speaker 1: that's part of being famous. So he would want to
Speaker 1: prove that he is a public figure. Yeah, this is
Speaker 1: a technically, it's a libel lawsuit because libel is the
Speaker 1: formal term for written defamation. Okay, but there's you know,
Speaker 1: it's a long way to go. But I think you
Speaker 1: know it's he asking for. What kind of damages is
Speaker 1: he asking for? Is there any monetary? It's unclear, but
Speaker 1: in the lawsuit said the damages to his you know, webs,
Speaker 1: his himself and Excel is in the tens of millions
Speaker 1: of dollars. They didn't put a specific number. But that
Speaker 1: then he's a thrown around. How do you prove that
Speaker 1: you've lost tens of millions of dollars? Freddie Freeman no
Speaker 1: longer employees it works with you. Freddie Freeman either paused
Speaker 1: or fired his agency. There's mixed reports about that, and
Speaker 1: if Freddie Freeman's future value. I thought that he didn't
Speaker 1: fire him. It's just sort of there in limbo a break. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know if he fired him. Yeah, there's mixed
Speaker 1: reports on that as well. Okay, but if he didn't
Speaker 1: fire him, then has it hurt his business? He did
Speaker 1: get Freddie Freeman more money to go to Atlanta. Have
Speaker 1: other players decided that they don't want to be represented
Speaker 1: by the agent, But I would think that the agent
Speaker 1: trying to prove that you're famous. I mean, you were
Speaker 1: Derek Jeter's agent. But yeah, that's tricky. But Doug Gottlieb
Speaker 1: is not backing down. If Gottlieb reached out to Casey
Speaker 1: Close and the agency and ask for before he put
Speaker 1: out the tweet and ask for a quote a comment,
Speaker 1: does that help him? You know in the world of
Speaker 1: journalism where we have to you know, normally you have
Speaker 1: a second source, and Doug has said before that he
Speaker 1: has a great source on this. I don't know if
Speaker 1: there's any paperwork on this, Are there any emails on this?
Speaker 1: Can you ask for text messages? With libel lawsuits? From
Speaker 1: what I'm reading here is negligence would include how thorough
Speaker 1: you were in your reporting? Did you reach out to
Speaker 1: all the principles in the case so like, like if
Speaker 1: we were reporting on this story, we would reach out
Speaker 1: to Doug Gottlieb and to Casey Close for comment as journalists,
Speaker 1: which we did. Doug, by the way, is in Israel
Speaker 1: and he's doing some coaching over there. But we did
Speaker 1: reach out and made contact with him, but he said
Speaker 1: that it's best that he doesn't say anything right now. Yes,
Speaker 1: you did say saba saloon, but as far as he
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna get it to the other was that on
Speaker 1: the record or off the right? That was on the record? Okay?
Speaker 1: The shabbat or the shalom? Both words? All right, what
Speaker 1: does shabbat shalom mean? It's like good, good shot, that's good.
Speaker 1: It's like our like you would have rest on Sunday,
Speaker 1: we rest on Saturday. That that's kind of what that is.
Speaker 1: You've you've shabat shalom during the week a couple of
Speaker 1: times here, a little bit. But yeah, you like candles
Speaker 1: when the sun goes down on Friday, and if you're
Speaker 1: really religious, you're not supposed to come I feed up Wednesday.
Speaker 1: Shabat Shalom Tuesday, you don't phone it in Salom the
Speaker 1: day of rest evening to Saturday, yes Seaton. According to
Speaker 1: the Internet, shabat Shalom is used to express good wishes
Speaker 1: on or before the Jewish Sabbath. There you go, but
Speaker 1: good young If that's similar too, I think that's all
Speaker 1: in the same ilk okay. And sometimes you're saying sha
Speaker 1: about shalom, hey, shaw about. I don't know if there's
Speaker 1: any of other words to that, but that's pretty much
Speaker 1: do they Is that a chant that you had, some
Speaker 1: kind of little song that people say. It's last about
Speaker 1: three seconds and then you go about your business and
Speaker 1: you have your your mots and you can filter fish
Speaker 1: and your chicken noodle. Much knocks is like good luck
