Imagine if the Super Bowl ratings were 49 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 1: down twelve and a half percent, be pretty big. Oh 50 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: what's wrong? You know? Politics, LA not a good matchup? 51 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: Halftime show the NFL Super Bowl ratings up twelve and 52 00:02:54,960 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: a half percent, So let's discuss why was it up. 53 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 1: I don't think people looked at this as a great matchup. 54 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: I think that yet an underdog in the Bengals. I 55 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: think America was curious about the Bengals, but this wasn't 56 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: a big game. In Los Angeles, ratings was not even 57 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: in the top ten markets. Not granted that's a huge market, 58 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: but the Rams are in the super Bowl, but the Bengals. 59 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: Cincinnati was the highest rated market, second was Detroit. I 60 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: guess a lot of people wanted to see how Matthew 61 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: Stafford was going to perform. The halftime show. I think 62 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: had a lot not a lot to do with it, 63 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: but I think it did play a role in keeping 64 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: people or tune in factor. Paulie mentioned that there's only 65 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: one halftime show in history where the ratings went up, 66 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: and that's Michael Jackson did this halftime show. We don't 67 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: know the ratings yet of the halftime show where they 68 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: break it down to tell you how many people were 69 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: watching when they were watching. What's the postgame show when 70 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,839 Speaker 1: you hand out the trophy, like all those things are 71 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: oken down. Will we have numbers that will show that 72 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: the halftime show. Did those numbers go up? Yeah, paul 73 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: I've been thinking a lot about this, and we got 74 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: an email to John Rand at Sports Business Journal. Why 75 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: the ratings were up significantly. It could be a culmination 76 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: of a great playoffs with a lot of close games. 77 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: That's a factor because all the games were really close. 78 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: The halftime show you bring in a lot of casual fans. 79 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: It also seems like the NFL had a pretty clean year. 80 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: It was not very political this year. There's not a 81 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: lot of COVID coverage, especially in the back half of 82 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: the years. They change their rules the Kaepernick story, whether 83 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 1: whatever you think about it doesn't seem me looming anymore 84 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: if you just add all that stuff up. It was 85 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: a really great season with the NFL, especially with the 86 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: close playoff games. Well, all it takes is good playoff games, 87 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: good football games. Because Daniel Snyder with Washington, I think 88 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: the average fan doesn't care. I would care about Daniel Snyder. 89 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: I'm still curious why these other owners want to be 90 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: associated with him, But I don't turn off a game 91 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: because of an owner. Now, Stephen Ross, if he's tanking games, 92 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: it would have been nice knowing that watching those games. 93 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: But if you're a Dolphins fan, you're certainly upset about this. 94 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: The NFL is going to be upset about this. Deshaun Watson, 95 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: he never got on the football field. Like when you 96 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: think of what was controversy, Aaron Rodgers, Oh my gosh, 97 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: you know, the woke mob is not going to let 98 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: me win the MVP. He won the MVP and he 99 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: missed a game because of COVID, and I had comments 100 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: on Pat McAfee show. But for the most part, I 101 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: think the football fan, the average football fan just goes 102 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: just play the games. The other stuff I don't care 103 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: about once you put on your helmet, your uniform, I 104 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: don't care the other stuff. Usually during the week, then 105 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: maybe you react to that. Stephen Ross, I'm really curious 106 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: if the NFL wants to find out that he was 107 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: telling his coach to tank games. And if you're a fan, 108 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: does the NFL want to find out more about Daniel Snyder? 109 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: Where you actually ask these two owners to give up 110 00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: their teams? I questioned that, and seventy five percent of 111 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: the owners would have to vote them out to sell 112 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: their teams. I'm curious if those owners want to open 113 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: up that Pandora's box where you're like, uh, I don't 114 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: want you're looking into my closet here. Yeah, see, do 115 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: you want to change up the poll question for this 116 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: hour to ratings for the Super Bowl were up because 117 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: dot dot dot, the team's playing, the artist performing great 118 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: playoffs or less politics slash covid. Oh okay, the poll 119 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: question from our one is a runaway. It's it's not 120 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: even close with Deshaun Watson. So whose future would you 121 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: most like to know about? And I agree, I said 122 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: it was going to be Deshaun Watson. You know, Tom 123 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: Brady and we'll talk to Jim Gray. You know, if 124 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: if he was betting on Tom coming back or staying retired, 125 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: al Michaels, He's gonna have his choice, you know, mothership. 126 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: I mean, imagine if you pair al Michaels with Sean McVay. 127 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,679 Speaker 1: Let's say that was a true story, a real story. 128 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: Troy Hickman goes to Amazon with Al Michaels Sean McVay. 129 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: I think there's mutual interest, but I think it's a 130 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: leverage play. Aaron Donald, maybe he walks away, maybe Ben Simmons. 131 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: I just want to see him play. Zion Williamson. I'd 132 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: like to see him play, but he's not going to 133 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: be play anytime soon. All right. So the poll question 134 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: is why were the ratings up for the Super Bowl? 135 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: Email I addressed DP at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter 136 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: handle at DPS show eight seven seven three DP shows 137 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: say good morning to Peacock, our streaming partner. By the way, 138 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: Rams fans, we do have a T shirt for you. 139 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: Go to Dan Patrick dot com. While you're there, sign 140 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: up for the newsletter comes out every day. Back room 141 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: guys do a wonderful job with it. Last week, the 142 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: seventy six ers and the Nets agreed to a trade 143 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: and it revolved around Ben Simmons and James Harden. We 144 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: heard from Ben Simmons in the first hour, you know, 145 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: he addressed the media for the first time as a 146 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: net and many people have assumed that Simmons would opt 147 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: out sit out of Brooklyn's game against Philadelphia that's coming 148 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: up in I think March tenth. But he said, hey, 149 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: I gotta get in game shape, but I'm targeting that 150 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: game to come back to play in Philadelphia. It's a 151 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: hard place to play when you're on the Philadelphia teams, 152 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: but that city, yes bood Santa Claus. So you wonder 153 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: when Ben Simmons comes back. However, those Philadelphia fans going 154 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: to treat him. You know, keep in mind when Lebron 155 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: returned to Cleveland, that was one of the more anticipated 156 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: regular season games in recent memory. I think this one 157 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: would top that just because of the acrimony, the anger 158 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: that's going to be there. But Ben Simmons got fined, 159 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: didn't get paid, He sat down and did not get paid. 160 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: That's why when people get upset about Kyrie and he 161 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: won't get vaccinated. And I'm thinking if he truly believes this, 162 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: Novak Djokovic says he's not going to play in Grand 163 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: Slam events if he has to be vaccinated. All right, 164 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: I respect you if that's your conviction. I may not 165 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: agree with you, but you know, Novak Djokovic is a 166 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 1: singular talent. He doesn't have a team attached to him. 167 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons not playing, or Kyrie deciding you doesn't want 168 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: to get vaccinated. He's got a team that relies on him. 169 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: That's different. But if you're willing to not get paid, 170 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: you sit down. I respect you for having that conviction. 171 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't like your decision, but I 172 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: respect it. And it's easy to criticize here. But if 173 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: Kyrie doesn't feel, you know, like he wants to needs to, 174 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: Novak Djokovic doesn't want too, Okay, that's fine. All I 175 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: know is we move on. We'll move on from Djokovic, 176 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: and you got the French Open coming up, and Rafa 177 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: Nadal probably win another major. Kyrie doesn't want to play, 178 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 1: sort of wants to play. We move on. That's what 179 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: happens in sports. We move on. You think you're the 180 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: sport revolves you around you, and it doesn't does for 181 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 1: a while, and then you move on. Look at all 182 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: of the great talent personalities, we move on from all 183 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: of them. I don't care if it's Brady, if it's Jordan, 184 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: you know it's And I always say this when when 185 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: Johnny Menzel was going through what he was going through, 186 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: I said, you know, Johnny's gonna wake up one day 187 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: and go, oh my god. Nobody cares. And nobody is caring. 188 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: Nobody does care. Like you might have a curiosity of oh, 189 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: what's he doing. I don't, but he had an opportunity. 190 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 1: Now he's a thirty for thirty. That's it. Like you 191 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: have to understand what you have in the moment, appreciate 192 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 1: what you have in the moment. But I can't tell you. 193 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: It's like when you tell people who have young children 194 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: and I always say, hey, it goes by quickly, and 195 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: they go, oh, I can't go quickly enough, and then 196 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you see them and their kids 197 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: are teenagers, or you're taking your kid to college, and 198 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: you're like, went by quickly, Oh my god, yes it did. 199 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,959 Speaker 1: But until you go through it, nobody can tell you. 200 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: I can't. Tonio Brown, like, we're gonna move on, nobody's 201 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: gonna care. You want to go to the club with 202 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: Floyd Mayweather. Good go. Nobody cares. When you played at 203 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 1: a high level, people cared, and then they move on. 204 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: All we care about is when you play. That's it. 205 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: Like OBJ, I hope he gets an opportunity to play again, 206 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: but if he doesn't, we'll move on. We move on 207 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: with everybody, with everything, and we move on quicker than 208 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: we ever did. Now. The NBA held on to Michael 209 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: Jordan far too long, in my opinion, but there was 210 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: nothing that they could do. He was that omnipresent. It's 211 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: like Tiger with golf. You know, you become bigger than 212 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 1: the sport. Tiger became bigger than the sport. Michael Jordan 213 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: pretty close to being bigger than the sport. But you 214 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: gotta move on. We'll move on from Tom Brady, We'll 215 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: move on from Aaron Donald. We'll move on from Deshaun 216 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: Watson or Zion or you name it. We do. Yeah, Paul, 217 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: I think that's a great call by you about Tiger, 218 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: specifically because when he had his knee and back injury, 219 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: it felt like when we tuned into a major, the 220 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,719 Speaker 1: lead story was Tiger's not here, Who's the favorite, not 221 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: who's the favorite? And Tigers also not here, and golf 222 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: is still struggling with this. There's no tune in factor, 223 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: you know, Bryson de Shambo, okay, but you're not tuning 224 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: in for brooks Keep because you know personality Justin Thomas 225 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: or Jordan Spieth. No, there's no IT player there in 226 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: golf now. Still great golfers. Patrick Cantlet is a great golfer. 227 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: John rom great golfer, but the tune in factor not there. 228 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: Tiger took it global. Let's take a couple of phone 229 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: calls Eric in California. Hi, Eric, what's on your mind today? Eric? Hi? Hi, 230 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: good morning, Dan five and a wiry one sixty five. 231 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: All right, I'm in Thousand Oaks, just down the street 232 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: from the home of the forty eight contiguous state Chance. 233 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 1: There you go, Seaton, and I just wanted to call 234 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: him some positivity. I noticed something after the NFC title 235 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: game with Odell Beckham Junior. The cameras, you know, while 236 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: they were showing you know, Aaron Donald holding up his 237 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: ring finger, they leaked over to Deebo. Samuel's there on 238 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: the bench, tal on his face, crying, obviously emotional, and 239 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: there was Obj you know, a guy, you know, a 240 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: questionable history. I was never a big a fan of 241 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: him for that reason. But there he was, you know, 242 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: being a big brother to a young up and coming star, 243 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: and that was a really beautiful thing, you know, And like, 244 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: that's that's something I would want my new twin boys 245 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: to see him. See. What I love about sports is 246 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: a sportsmanship of it all, the brotherhood of it all. 247 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: I thought that was a beautiful thing. All right, Well, 248 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: thank you, Eric. I love the charisma that Obj has. 249 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 1: Is he worth the attention against? No, he's not. I 250 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: thought he was in route to being the MVP of 251 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. He was going to be a difference maker. 252 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: And you hate to see somebody go out like that. 253 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: And here's another knee surgery here. He's gonna be out. 254 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: He may miss the regular season next year. Yeah, Seton, 255 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,199 Speaker 1: that's a crazy thing about star power, you know, Like 256 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: he has Odell Beckham Junior has all of this charisma. 257 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,719 Speaker 1: He's just got it, whatever that intangible it is. He 258 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: has it that all eyes just focus on him, whereas 259 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: like a you know, David Tyree made equally as amazing 260 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: a catch and doesn't have it. Yeah, Well, Julio Jones. 261 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: Julio Jones made one of the great catches in Super 262 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: Bowl history, should have led to a field goal that 263 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: would have won the Super Bowl for the Falcons, and 264 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 1: it's lost forgotten. Yeah, Poll David Tyree, I think people 265 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: forget that was his last play as an NFL player. Yeah, 266 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: he injured his knee and missed the whole next season. 267 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: I think it was on Baltimore. I don't know if 268 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: he played a play. His last catch was his greatest. 269 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: Scott in New York. Then will take a break. Jim 270 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: Gray will join us. Coming up, Hey, Scott, what's on 271 00:14:55,280 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: your mind today? Morning? DP, Next second McCalls.

My eleven year old son, here's the show. 277 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: Sometimes when I'm working out or in the car, and 278 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: we were watching the home team a few days ago, 279 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: he was kind of paying attention, but your scene came 280 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: up and he hears your voice. He goes, hey, that's Fritzie. 281 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: I hear Fritzie, I go, okay, We'll wait a minute. 282 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no no. I was like that, 283 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: this is this is Dans and he goes, oh, oh man, 284 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: he's on radio and TV. He must be famous. So yeah, 285 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: I thought you were Fritzie. All right, Well that's okay. 286 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: It's still in the family and I appreciate that. That's 287 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: the only time I would be mistaken for Fritzie. Yeah, 288 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: thank you, Scott.

We've been doing 333 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: this show for more than a decade, so as opposed 334 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: to another athlete, there's a lack of familiarity. And we're 335 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: not doing a show together. But when you sense something 336 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 1: as good at reporters you are, when you hear something 337 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: you would normally pounce on that, how do you approach that? 338 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: If you sense something with Tom and you know the 339 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: approach of pouncing on it and realizing that maybe there's 340 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: a kind of breadcrumbs there for a bigger topic. Well, 341 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: we have much more time. We have twenty five minutes 342 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: a show and forty five minutes for the podcast. So 343 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: it's it's not like me doing the end of game 344 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: interview where I have to get right to it because 345 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: we're rushing off to you know, the tonight show or 346 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: Sports Center or whatever. So you have two questions and 347 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: you're done. So you can't you can't have a conversation 348 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: with somebody, you can't delicit more information, you can't have 349 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: a you know, there's no comfort there. You got a 350 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: boom boom boom. So it's just a lot different formats. 351 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: So pouncing on something isn't isn't necessary. Take me back 352 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: to that weekend when Schefter and Jeff Darlington reported over 353 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 1: the weekend I think it was Saturday at two thirty 354 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: Eastern that Tom was going to retire. You take the 355 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: podcast then on Monday. Correct. Okay, so how do you 356 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: do you discuss topics? Give me let us behind the 357 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: scenes there of what you do in preparing for that 358 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: with Tom and Larry and that topic. That weekend, I 359 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: was in Mexico that weekend and my phone was blowing 360 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: up and I hadn't heard from Tom, and so I 361 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: didn't know anything about it. And I don't know if 362 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: I'm tenth on the list Dan or if I'm twentieth 363 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: or fiftieth or one hundred, but I'm on the list Somewhere. 364 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: At some point he would have reached out and said, Jim, 365 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: I'm out, I'll talk to you later, or whatever it 366 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: would have been. I didn't get that. So I called 367 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: Tom's agent and he didn't know anything about it. I 368 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: spoke to mister and missus Brady and they didn't know 369 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: anything about it, and they had just spoke to Tom, 370 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: and Tom said that wasn't the case. So we've been 371 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: involved with each other for a long time, Tom and 372 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: I doing this show. I always take Tom at his word, 373 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: because Tom is Tom's word is really good. So we 374 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: approached the show on that Monday, which was a couple 375 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: of days later, and I asked him what he was 376 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: doing and he said he hadn't decided yet. So, you know, 377 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: this isn't a show where you're supposed to badger somebody's 378 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: He's the co host of the show. You've not hitting 379 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: him over the head, and it's his decision and his life, 380 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: and when he came to that decision with his life, 381 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: he would inform us. What did you think when you 382 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: heard on Tuesday or you saw this social media that 383 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: Tom was retiring? Thought that he decided to retire, and 384 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: that he decided over the course of time with Gazelle 385 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: and whoever else was involved with the decision, Jack, Benny 386 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: and Vibe that it was time time to do that. 387 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: By the way, then the club also hadn't been informed, 388 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: so Jason and Bruce, Arians and the Glazier family none 389 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: of them knew, and I believe they released a statement 390 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: to that effect and saying Tom had told them that 391 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: that wasn't the case. So I guess the Tuesday morning, 392 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: whatever it was, twelve or fourteen hours after we did 393 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: the show, that's what he had decided to do, and 394 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: wrote out his Instagram when it feels like people are 395 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: still don't believe it's real. Do you believe it's real? 396 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: I do. I do, But I also believe that he 397 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: doesn't know if and when that urge will come back. 398 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 1: So I think he answered the question, you know, to 399 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: the best of his ability and really honestly when he said, 400 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: you know, never say never, because he's been doing this 401 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: for thirty plus years and he's not leaving Dan because 402 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: there's anything physically wrong. He led the league in every 403 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 1: statistical category for a quarterback. So it's more of an 404 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: emotional thing perhaps that he'll be forty five and doesn't 405 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: want to get pounced on by Von Miller and Aaron 406 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: Donald and these guys. But I truly believe that if 407 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: he wanted to play physically, he could continue to play 408 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: at a very, very high level. And he's even said 409 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: that probably well beyond next year, if that's what he 410 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: decided more likely to play again. Tom or Larry Fitzgerald, Well, 411 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:42,719 Speaker 1: Tom Larry had no interest in coming back at all. 412 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 1: Now Larry Larry made that decision. He never turned in 413 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 1: his retirement papers. But Larry never wavered. Larry had calls 414 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: every week from great teams that really wanted him and 415 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: could have played, probably on a championship team, and he 416 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 1: he just never even looked back. He never thought about it. 417 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: He was enjoying his life. He was going to his 418 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: kids a flag football games. He's very involved in a 419 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: number of businesses. He's a really philanthropic guy who was 420 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: the NFL Man of the Year Larry. Larry had decided 421 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: that that was it. When Antonio Brown goes, hey, well, 422 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: did Tom try to talk Larry Fitzgerald into playing for 423 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers? Not that I'm aware of. No, and Larry 424 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: and Tom have not told me that. So no, Tom 425 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: knew where Larry was. Podcast together, they played golf together. 426 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: They were around each other last summer quite a bit 427 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 1: a number of times. So Tom didn't waste his time 428 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: on that call is the podcast on hiatus? Podcast was 429 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: our last podcast on Sirius was Monday night and we'll 430 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: come back in August, and both Tom and Larry and 431 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: I were all set to go for the next football 432 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: season and series has been a great partner and we'll 433 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: have some more fun. Yeah. I was wondering about that. 434 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 1: People jumped on that they're like on hiatus until you know, September, 435 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 1: and then it was like, oh, September, that means maybe 436 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: Tom's going to come back, And I thought, well, they're 437 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: not going to talk football during the off season, I guess, 438 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: and you guys will just pick it up when you 439 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: get ready to start the season, correct, I mean, we 440 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: don't that that's been normal. What we've done. We've done 441 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: this show for more than a decade and so you know, 442 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 1: we but we don't do it all year. We don't 443 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: come on and start talking about the Final Four and 444 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,959 Speaker 1: the Masters in baseball. I'd be curious. I'd be curious 445 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: about it, because you know, Larry Fitzgerald a really good golfer. 446 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: You get their comments on Augusta. I'm fine with that. 447 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: March Madness as well. Maybe we'll do a special, Maybe 448 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: we'll jump over from the mad Dog Channel over to 449 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: the Dan Patrick Channel, and maybe we'll do a summer special. 450 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: When did it start to click where Tom Brady and 451 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: you became friends not reporter in our partners? I guess 452 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,479 Speaker 1: do you remember? Well? I had just as him. Don 453 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: Shula used to do Monday night football with me on 454 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: Westwood One, and he decided that he had had enough 455 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: that it was just, you know, too much. And I 456 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: believe at the time Don was maybe eighty years old, 457 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: seventy nine or eighty years old, So this was twelve 458 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: years ago or so, and so I just happened to 459 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: run in. I ran into topment. He was watching his 460 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: son Jack play play tennis at Riviera, and Jack at 461 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: the time was maybe three or two years old, three 462 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: years old, four years old, really just a youngster plan 463 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 1: play tennis. I said, hey, should by chance have any 464 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: interest in doing Monday nights football in the radio with me? 465 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: Because I had only done a local show with w 466 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: e I in Boston every Monday. And he said, well, 467 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: what is it, entail? And I told him He said, well, 468 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 1: why don't you write write my agents? So what exactly 469 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: it is? You have my number and we'll just stay 470 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: in touch. Well, a couple of weeks later he got 471 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: back in touch with me. He said that he had 472 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: spoken to it Don Yee and Steve Dubin said, yeah, 473 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: I'd like to do that. Then he wrote me a 474 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: letter Dan before we started our first Monday night thing. 475 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 1: He said, you'll get the same effort out of me 476 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: on Monday nights that I give my teammates on Sunday afternoons. 477 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: And I still have that letter. And you know what 478 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: he has. He's he hasn't missed a show even when 479 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: he's played on Monday nights. He's taped it early and 480 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: he's been he's just been terrific. He's a better human 481 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: being than he is a quarterback. If you had to 482 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: bet on what he's going to do next next chapter. 483 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: Could you see him being in the media aside from 484 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: the podcast? I was going to say he's with us, 485 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: of course she is. I don't. I don't personally see that. 486 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I didn't hear you. No, No, I, like 487 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 1: I said, I threw in the podcast there Lake knowing 488 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: that you would pick up on that. So I but see. 489 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,199 Speaker 1: Could you see him doing a network thing, a Manning 490 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 1: Cast Amazon. I don't want to speak for Tom, but 491 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 1: every every indication that I have would indicate no. Might 492 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: he do some more specials? Might he do you know, 493 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: another Man in the Arena or a documentary or appear 494 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: from time to time he's appeared on the Manning Cast. 495 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 1: He might do something like that. But I don't think 496 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 1: he's going to try and do something like Tony Romore Troy. 497 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: I could see him in Gronk doing a Manning Cast type. 498 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 1: It's something on Amazon. What do you think that'd be fun? 499 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: It's a good idea. But I think Gron's gonna play 500 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: Oh you do I do with Tampa, Tom said. Tom 501 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 1: said a couple of days ago on our final show 502 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 1: that he hoped Gron's play that he's got a lot 503 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: left in the tank, that he'll make any team a 504 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: whole lot better, that he still has championship football in him, 505 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: and that he would, you know, hate to see him 506 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: go at this point, but would totally respect whatever he 507 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: wanted to do. He's Jim Gray Hall of Famer. The 508 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: podcast Let's Go with Tom Brady and Larry Fitzgerald on 509 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:55,360 Speaker 1: Hiatus until August. Who's the athlete you have an interviewed 510 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 1: that you want to I've interviewed everybody I've wanted to interview, 511 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: I guess Babe Ruth. But unfortunately that's not going to occur. 512 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: It's going to happen. Uh, I'm not I'm not sitting here, 513 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: you know, thinking that I've that I'm lacking anything, or 514 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: that there's anybody who I really you know, I'm still curious. 515 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: I'd like to interview I guess I'd like to interview 516 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 1: Otani because he's great. I'm sure there's a language barrier 517 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: and it can be translated, but I think he's a 518 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: great athlete, so I guess that would be the answer. 519 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: Can you see Lebron staying and playing with his son 520 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: the important somenvent? Yes, yes, I do. I think that 521 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: is important to him. I think he's kind of stated that. 522 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: I think it would be you know, it would be 523 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: a lot of fun to see. I think Lebron can 524 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: still play at a high level. I don't know where 525 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: he'll be in a couple of years or what that 526 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: team would look like and how exactly that would work. 527 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: And if his son, you know, we're taking into account 528 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 1: that his son, Bronnie, is good enough to play in 529 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: the NBA. Now, maybe somebody will do it for the 530 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: novelty of it, even if he's not good enough. But 531 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: I think he has a long way to go, you know, 532 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: in his development. But I wonder if Lebron looks at 533 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: this and gets into an organ. I don't know, if 534 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,959 Speaker 1: he ends his career with the Lakers, what do you think. 535 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: I don't either. I don't either. You know, it's it's 536 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: also transient now and everybody just kind of comes and goes. 537 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: I mean, look at James Harden. Three teams in a year. 538 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: James Harden is a great and offensive force in the 539 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: history of the NBA as we've ever seen. And you know, 540 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: he's just Kevin Durant, the best player in the NBA. 541 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: Look at look at this now, and we spend more 542 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: time wondering where these guys are going to be than 543 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: we actually do paying attention. It's like it's all it's 544 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 1: not even a hot stove league. It's just like constantly burning. 545 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: It's like one of these wildfires, unfortunately that we have 546 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: here in California. So all this speculation is going to 547 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: go on and on. So I could see Lebron playing 548 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 1: someplace else if that meant he could play with Brownie. 549 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: Did you save your interview notes from Lebron's decision? Like, 550 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: I probably have him somewhere. Let be curious. Here, here 551 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: are the interview notes day right here. There was just 552 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: this season with Let's Go, which you were a part of. Yeah, 553 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: so yeah, I probably have him somewhere. I still go 554 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: back to that question I asked, And I did follow 555 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: up with you when I talked to Tom about that 556 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: pole that you feel with your family that I felt 557 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: when I was at ESPN and I left at fifty 558 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: and here's Tom at forty four. And I followed up 559 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: with you, and you were kind enough to share that 560 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: you know, you could tell that maybe it kind of 561 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: hit Tom in a different way because everything else was 562 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: football related and I went family related. Did you glean 563 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: anything from that answer from Tom that maybe you didn't 564 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: realize at the time of what he might be really feeling. 565 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was a great question by you, and 566 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: I don't say that because we're friends or because this 567 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: is your show. So it was a lousy question. I 568 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: tell you, you stick that was a great question. But 569 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: I also know how Tom feels about his family, and 570 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: there's a spot that it touches, whether it's his parents 571 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: and his sisters who were so important to him, or 572 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: whether it's Benny, Jack, Viv and Gizelle. You know, when 573 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: he goes there, it brings out an emotion and he 574 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: wants to be with his son and his sons in 575 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: New York. And so when you ask that question, I 576 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: knew how he felt, and I know how it bothers him, 577 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: and I know he wants to spend more time. So 578 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: I could see that it touched him, and everybody else 579 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: did kind of focus on some of the other things. 580 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: There was that young man who was in the stands 581 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: that also touched him, held up that sign about cancer 582 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: and saving his life and inspiring him. So I could see, 583 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: you know, Tom's an emotional guy and he's a real guy, 584 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: and he really really cares. He cares deeply about football, 585 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,479 Speaker 1: cares about people. He wants to see his teammates succeed. 586 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: He doesn't feel in any way that ripping somebody else 587 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: somehow enhances him. So he's tried to inspire and lift people. 588 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: So when you talked about his family, that took him 589 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: to a place, you know, where he wants to be. 590 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: His social media is unbelievable. I don't know. I would 591 00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,959 Speaker 1: love to have had that social media with the Patriot 592 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: But why did Tom all of a sudden go unplugged 593 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: here with the Buccaneers. Well, there's a different atmosphere and 594 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: there's different folks. And Tom has tremendous respect and reverence 595 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: for his time at the Patriots, and he's grateful, but 596 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: those folks are tightly wound, and it's a whole it's 597 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: a whole different. You know, Bruce arians is out having 598 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: fun on the golf course and once in a while, 599 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: once in a while he may have, you know, an 600 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: adult beverage, and it's a little it's a it's just 601 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: a little looser atmosphere. So Tom could be more of 602 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: himself and and you know Tom wanted to follow. Tom's 603 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: a great teammate. So Tom wanted to follow what it 604 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: was the protocols were, and Coach Belichick just wasn't going 605 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: to have that and didn't want that. And here he 606 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: could be more of himself and that's all much more 607 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: permissible and part of the program. Have you had Belichick 608 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: on the lets Goo podcast? We have not. We haven't 609 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: requested him. Oh you gotta have him on. Well maybe 610 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: next year, you know, if Don's out of football, perhaps Colichick. Now, 611 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: he asked for Coach Belichick a number of times on 612 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: Monday Night Football and he wasn't available, but he wasn't 613 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: available at Super Bowls any and he did come on 614 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: and answer the questions. And he's always to me, he's 615 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: always very courteous, very nice, very respectful, and obviously he's 616 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 1: he's the greatest coach probably in the history of the NFL, 617 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: with the exception of the numbers. And I'll go with 618 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: Don Shula because he has three forty seven. But I 619 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: think Coach Belichick's gonna stick around until he breaks that render. 620 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: I agree, and great to talk to you. Sorry I 621 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: didn't get a chance to do a drive by there 622 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. Damn, I'm sorry I missed you next time. 623 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: My how's your pursuit of the corn Ferry Tour going? Uh, 624 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: it's good. I'm I'm taking a couple of weeks off 625 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: for the corn Ferry Golf Tour, but uh, you know, 626 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: I'm not ready for Riviera. Let's put it that way. Well, 627 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: the pros are this week, so tune in. It should 628 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: be fun. Thank you, Budd.

First of all, we 689 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: need to get Tyler a raise. He's awesome back there 690 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: answering the phones.

He's your advice with the 692 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: speech and holding it together. Well, I did better than you. 693 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: I held it together, but I just want to think 694 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 1: I kept it light, kept it short, doing a couple 695 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 1: office jokes, and it killed. So I want to give 696 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: you props, my man. All right, well, thank you, Dug. 697 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 1: Here to help, here to help with wedding advice. Although 698 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: I couldn't keep it together when my son got married, 699 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: I got three daughters. I got to walk down the aisle. 700 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: There's no way I'm going to keep it together. Yeah, Paul, 701 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, wedding jokes are really tough when you get 702 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 1: the mic, whether you're the father the bride or the groom. 703 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: Don't make them crude. You can make light jokes and 704 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 1: you're gonna get some courtesy points for making any type 705 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: of jokes. So if you go crude, it usually what 706 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't work out for you. Usually your speech is 707 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 1: remembered for being really good or really bad. It's hard 708 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: to do really good. It's easy to be really bad. 709 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: Don't talk long. There's nothing worse than the guy who 710 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: gets up there thinks, you know, like Fritzie, You're on 711 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: stage and you're going, I can just talk and I 712 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: got some stories, and then you're telling inside jokes and 713 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: nobody knows what the hell you're talking about. You're just 714 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: asking for trouble. Get up, get through it, and sit out. Yeah. See, 715 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 1: I was at my cousin's wedding and the best man 716 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: got up and he thought he was crushing and it 717 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,959 Speaker 1: went way too long, and to a certain point people 718 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 1: were like, all right, that's it, wrap it up, that's 719 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 1: and it got very awkward, and this dude was oblivious. 720 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, I know, and then remember the 721 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: time that it did. It's like, oh my god, stop 722 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: saying that, dude. Yep. I've been there many times. Not good. 723 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: No Scott in New York, Ki Scott, what's on your 724 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: mind today? Hey? Dan? Six five two twenty all right, 725 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: So yesterday I was listening to all the sports shows, 726 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: including yourself, and they were saying that Matt Stafford is 727 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 1: not a Hall of Famer. And I was doing a 728 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: little bit of research on the quarterbacks of not one 729 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl that are in the Hall of Fame. 730 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: So I was wondering if you think he falls if 731 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford fault in the category is Warren Moon, Dan 732 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: Fouts or Sony Jurgensen, or if he is more of 733 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: the new age person like Aaron Rodgers, who doesn't have 734 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,399 Speaker 1: more than one Super Bowl ring, but because he played 735 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: in Detroit for twelve years, he had that stigma. Well, 736 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: I think Matthew Stafford is sort of like Philip Rivers. 737 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: He's but he's got the Super Bowl. You know, they accumulated, 738 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 1: you know they they're compilers here. But I don't know 739 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: if he's a great one of those where you go, 740 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: oh my god, Matthew Stafford, very talented, hasn't had playoff 741 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: success until this year, but he did step up when 742 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: you needed him to. I don't vote for it, but 743 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 1: I would. I would say this to you, I would 744 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: not put Matthew Stafford in before Kenny Anderson. Kenny Anderson 745 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: was at League MVP. He was a great quarterback and 746 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,320 Speaker 1: ahead of his time. One year he completed seventy percent 747 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: of his passes, played for a team that went to 748 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl that lost to Joe Montana. To meet, 749 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: Kenny Anderson is a Hall of Famer. Now I'm biased 750 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: because from Cincinnati got to see him play and Stafford. 751 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 1: Stafford has made one Pro Bowl. You it's hard to 752 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: not make the Pro Bowl. Mac Jones has a Pro 753 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: Bowl as an alternate. Vince Young had two of them. 754 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford has one. Like to me, I find that amazing. 755 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,879 Speaker 1: And it doesn't mean that he like Key quarterbacked too. 756 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,240 Speaker 1: Were the greatest receiving years in history, the two greatest 757 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 1: receiving years unless you throw in Randy Moss, but Megatron 758 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 1: and Cooper Cup. I got to give Matthew Stafford credit there. 759 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: But let me see how his You know, his career 760 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 1: isn't over. He's thirty four, it's not over. Let's say 761 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,919 Speaker 1: he has another couple of appearances, maybe gets another Super Bowl. 762 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: What if it goes the other direction. I mean, he 763 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 1: did lead the league in interceptions when as a quarterback 764 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 1: led the league in interceptions. He had a couple of 765 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 1: picks in the Super Bowl. I don't know when this happened. 766 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: If it's happened, if a quarterback's led the league interceptions 767 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: and won the Super Bowl, we should find that out. 768 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 1: He's a good player, you know. Do I think matt 769 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 1: Ryan is a better quarterback? He won the MVP, they 770 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: did lose the Super Bowl. You know, we want to 771 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 1: have this. I got to give you my opinion right now. 772 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: I don't have an opinion on Matthew Stafford right now. 773 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 1: You want to put him in the Hall of Fame, 774 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: put him in the hall, but let me see what 775 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: happens over the next four or five years, because that 776 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 1: could change this significantly one way or another. But this 777 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: is the hot take. Hall of Famer, not a Hall 778 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 1: of Famer. I don't know. There's nothing wrong with this 779 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 1: for people who are in this business. There's nothing wrong 780 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: with saying I'm not sure right now. I don't know 781 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: right now, but it feels like you got to have 782 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: yes or no. Maybe how about that maybe? And I've 783 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: been accused of, you know, copying out and not having 784 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: a hot take. That's not how I was raised in 785 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: this business. I have an opinion, a measured take. Maybe 786 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't get headlines or clicks. I'm okay with that. 787 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford Hall of Famer. I don't know.
