First hour on this program, things got a 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 1: little dark, a little serious, and I actually said to Todd, 6 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 1: shut up. Sorry for saying, show. It's a little harsh. 7 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: That's all right, kind of a normal Friday. Normally I 8 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: say shut up. But we're not on the radio when 9 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: I say that, that's true, all right, Age seven seven 10 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: three d P Show email address DP at dan Patrick 11 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: dot com, Twitter handle at dp's show, and we'll check 12 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: in with the popular host of the NFL network, Rich Isising. 13 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,279 Speaker 1: We'll join us. Coming up momentarily in an hour from now, 14 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 1: Joe Tory, the former Yankee manager and coming up on 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: Saturday Yankees Mets, and we look back on the twenty 16 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: year anniversary what sports role was coming back from nine 17 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: to eleven, and Joe Tory, of course was front and 18 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: center with the Yankees at that time, So we'll talk 19 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: to Joe. Kurt Warner was on the call last night 20 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: for Westwood one Radio. The Hall of Fame quarterback will 21 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: join us as well this Sunday when the Packers take 22 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: the field against the Saints, Aaron Rodgers will be under center, 23 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: which makes you wonder, what have we been doing these 24 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: last few months, three months of content that led to nothing. 25 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: Rogers did get Randall Cobb back, I guess in his 26 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: first GM move. I'm not sure that that equals a 27 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: good return on the investment of all the time we 28 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: took talking about the Packers and the future of Aaron Rodgers. 29 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: Green Bay has a last dance feel, which could be 30 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: a good thing. If you remember in the Michael Jordan 31 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: documentary the Bulls won that last dance. When you envision 32 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: the Packers documentary, which will almost certainly happen, Rogers holding 33 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: up the Lombardi Trophy would be the perfect ending. And 34 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: you know, you look back on the Packers and look 35 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: like they were headed to the Super Bowl last season 36 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: thirteen and three, but lost to the Buccaneers in the 37 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: title game a couple of mistakes against Tampa Bay. It 38 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: fell apart. Can they do it? Can they do it again? 39 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: Can they take the next step? And it's one of 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: the big storylines of the entire season and a central 41 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: storyline in a documentary coming your way in just a 42 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: few years. I picked Green Bay to go to the 43 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: Super Bowl against Kansas City. If we're going to buy 44 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: into the Aaron Rodgers gets motivated, he got motivated with 45 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: Jordan Love and won an MVP. Then I guess he's 46 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 1: really motivated this year to win a Super Bowl or 47 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: at least to get there. Pole question, McLevin. Then we'll 48 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: get to Rich Eisen. Okay, the first hour poll question 49 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: was which would you bet on the Bucks making the 50 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: Super Bowl or the Cowboys winning the NFC East eighty 51 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: four percent Cowboys. I'm a little surprised that it's that 52 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: wide of a margin there, because you would ask me 53 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: do I think the Cowboys will make the playoffs? And 54 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: he said yes, but it's just tough to repeat. So 55 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: I'm just going against history is against the Buccaneers. Let's 56 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: bring in Rich Eisen, host of the Rich Eisen Show 57 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: on NBC's Peacock that follows us and NFL Network host. 58 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: Let me ask you the poll question. There more likely 59 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: to happen Tampa Bay goes to the super Bowl or 60 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys make the playoffs. Well, I picked Tampa to 61 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl, so I'll go with Tampa making 62 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. I like Washington. I like the football team, 63 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 1: or the Red Wolves or the Commanders or whatever they're 64 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: going to be. I like their defense a hell of 65 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: a lot. I think Chase Young is a defensive player. 66 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: They're candidate, and that was my thought going in. Obviously 67 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: seeing what Dak looked like last night and the way 68 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: that these receivers were as advertised, but would give me 69 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: a little bit of pause. But I think we saw 70 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: last night what the Buccaneers can be, which is remove 71 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: your run game, make you a throw team, and you know, 72 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 1: and if you can't, if you can throw on them, 73 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: then Brady, you'll just beach in the end. And that 74 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: was pretty much it last night. I mean, the Buccaneers 75 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: turned it over four times and still won the game. 76 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: So I'll go with the Bucks making the Super Bowl. 77 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: Who do you have playing the Bucks? I have the Chiefs. 78 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: I have the first repete Super Bowl since the ninety 79 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: two ninety three seasons. And I see Brady winning it 80 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: back to back, and then we're going to sit here 81 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: and have a conversation. Does he want to be a 82 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 1: forty five year old guy trying to be the first 83 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: to do it three straight times? And I think the 84 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: answer is going to be yes. I know collins Worth 85 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: tweeted it out. I didn't have the game broadcast on 86 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: where I was, but I don't know if he said 87 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: it last night, but he tweeted out that he couldn't 88 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: tell any difference between a twenty four and forty four 89 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: year old Brady. And I mean, there was a third 90 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: down throw on third and ten that went off of 91 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 1: Godwin's hands with I think ten minutes to go or 92 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: something like that, and it was one of the most 93 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: remarkable throws you'll see. And a forty four year old 94 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: shouldn't make that throw when he's been three quarters into 95 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: a game. It really is amazing. Dan. We'll never see 96 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: anything like it again. I know we say that quite 97 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: a bit in sports, and then we see something like 98 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: it again. And people who said that about Babe Ruth 99 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: aren't alive to see Otani, right, But I mean, we've 100 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: got We saw forty four year old last night take 101 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: the field, defending his seventh Super Bowl, raising his seventh banner, 102 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: first with a different team, and playing the way that 103 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: he did last night, top of his game, top of 104 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: his game that was in a single diminishing return we 105 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: saw last night, and that's What's interesting when you look 106 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: at athletes, what do they lose? You know, as they 107 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: get older, what do you lose? Exclusiveness? You know, hitters 108 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: will talk about maybe their eyesight's not as good hand 109 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: eye coordination. With Brady, what is he going to lose? 110 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: You know, I never had this, so he's not losing anything. 111 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: And if your arm is as strong as it's ever been, 112 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: why would he I mean, I wouldn't leave. He got 113 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: touched twice last night. I mean, if you got a 114 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: good line, you got good wide receivers, you're having fun. 115 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: I see he's going to play, of course, And I 116 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: think the throw that showed me a lot. Maybe his 117 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: most impressive throw of the night was the hail Mary 118 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: at the end of the first half. When anybody who's 119 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: forty four years old throwing the ball half the field, 120 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: how many times have we seen it goes straight up 121 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: the chimney and then somebody's like trying to have a 122 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: leap at it at the ten yard line. I mean, 123 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: that was a terrific hail mary throw from a forty 124 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: four year old. He's making all the throws right now. Obviously, 125 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: the question will be health and if they do ever 126 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: get into a game where the run game will have 127 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: to suffice. Who's it going to be? I guess it'll 128 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: be four dead. But you know, that was tremends just 129 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: as a great I love the whole game, obviously, but 130 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: just to see the Bucks come out like that last 131 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: night has to give them a lot of momentum moving forward. Obviously. 132 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: I wonder about the game plan for the Cowboys. It's 133 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: hard to run against Tampa Bay, Yes, but if you're 134 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, don't you feel like, hey, it's hard to 135 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: defend our running game now, don't you don't have one 136 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: of your better offensive linemen. I get that, but you 137 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: still have an offensive line where Dak is going to 138 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: throw almost sixty times, so you can't go, well, you 139 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: didn't have your offensive line, so we're going to throw more. Normally, 140 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: you would probably run the football instead of expose Dak 141 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: Prescott on a surgically repaired ankle against one of the 142 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: better defenses in the league. What did you make a 143 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: Dallas's game plan? Well? I think it was blown up 144 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: by Vita Vea Dan What a grown man, Oh my god. 145 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: I mean he was throwing people out of the club 146 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: night fourth quarter and he was terrific. We obviously pay 147 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: attention to JPP and those linebackers who are terrific and 148 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: David and White and clearly you know Sue, but Vitavella 149 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: was the defensive star of last night and then they 150 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: throw him out there as a fullback on offense that 151 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: were just you saw Fournette. I'll just run behind this guy. 152 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: They just bowled him down the Brooklyn side and took 153 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: care of business last night, you know, And it was 154 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: I think the way that the Cowboys saw the way 155 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: it was going. Now you I could pick up what 156 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: you're putting down, which is that's twenty one back there. 157 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: That's Zeke back there, that's the guy who supposedly is 158 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: your difference maker. And yeah, I think the plan should 159 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: be to give him twenty touches a game minimum, But 160 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: I think they go to Pollard a lot too, So 161 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: I guess you can't forget that he's part of the 162 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: run game. But yes, the balance needs to be there, 163 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: otherwise Daki will have too much on his shoulders figuratively. 164 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: But last night, all that, even with the shoulders supposedly 165 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: being iffy, I mean, that was great. You have to 166 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: walk out of that if you're the Cowboys thinking, not 167 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: only does Dak look terrific, but he is worth every 168 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: penny of that forty million a year. He played like 169 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: the elite quarterback should in that game last night. And 170 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of ifs and butts, but 171 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 1: that should be I guess the silver lining to take 172 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: away talking to Rich Eisen NFL network hoast and the 173 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 1: host of the Rich Eisenshow and NBC's Peakunk. It follows 174 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: this program. Who looked younger last night? Tom Brady or 175 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: Drew Brees? Oh gosh, can I go off the board 176 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: and say Jack Collins, Dan? I mean, he's not a choice, 177 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: but oh man, I'll still go with Brady. I'll still 178 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: go with TV twelve. You know what I thought. I 179 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: saw the video. This is what Brady. This is probably 180 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: what keeps him young and keeps him going. Is Brady 181 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: the number of people who he has competed against and 182 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: has been put in the same sentence with, and Breeze 183 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: in many ways deserves to be in the same sentence 184 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: with Brady when you're talking about record books. I mean, 185 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: Brady last night joined Breeze as the only other quarterback 186 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: with one hundred three hundred yard passing games and he's 187 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: thirty two behind Breeze. Now, so that's my caveat. But 188 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: the number of times I've seen Breeze go up to 189 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: somebody who he's been in the same sentence with, or 190 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: is a member of the media and they're all in 191 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: a suit and tie because they're with the media, or 192 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: they're there to be honored by their team that night 193 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: and he's still in his uniform, or he goes up 194 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: to somebody like dad. Last two quarterbacks he consoled on 195 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: that field where Patrick Mahomes and Dak Prescott, and he's 196 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: forty four years old. I think that's what keeps him 197 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: going and looking as young than than somebody else. But 198 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: Breeze did look young to Dan. Yeah, he had a 199 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: new addition. Um, were you talking about a rock band 200 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: or what are you talking about? What are you talking about? 201 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: I'm trying to I'm trying to I'm trying to see 202 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: what you're trying to say. What are you trying to say? 203 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: He extended his hairline, So see, now you can talk 204 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: about stuff like that, you know what I'm saying, Like, 205 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if I have many follicles to stand on. Okay, 206 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: but what did you did you ever think about. Dion 207 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: has told me over and over and over again to 208 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: do what he's done, um, which is, you know, restore. 209 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: And he calls himself the comeback player of the Year 210 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: every year now and he thinks I should do it. 211 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: He keeps telling me that my wife really wants me 212 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: to do it, she doesn't have the heart to tell 213 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: me to do it. He says that she's standing on 214 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: the side. Is what he told me one time. That 215 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 1: she's standing on the side, you know, having one end 216 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: of the rope, trying to double dutch with me, wanting 217 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: me to get in there, is what he keeps saying. 218 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: But I have accused Brian Urlacher of being a trader, 219 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: so I don't know if I could now go ahead 220 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 1: and join that club. Dan, I don't know if I could. Well, 221 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: you don't need to. I think I'm you know, a 222 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: fine wine. This is or as the phrase that NFL 223 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: coaches say, it is what it is, and I don't 224 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: have a crystal ball. I don't think I'm gonna try it, 225 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I could keep going on with 226 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: these cliches, but it is what it is. Let's take 227 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: a vote. Does Rich should he entertain getting new Moss 228 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:01,719 Speaker 1: no no no four four knows no no Moss no 229 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: no more no no. Randy, you know you don't need 230 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: to h Okay, if I give you if if the 231 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: Chargers are a stock and the Rams are a stock, 232 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: oh I'll take oh god wow, um Uh. I'll take 233 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: the Rams because they think they're going to win their division. 234 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: I don't think the Chargers will. But I do love 235 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: the Chargers. I love Brandon Staley, I love Herbert, I 236 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: love Derwin James. They've got playmakers all over the lock. 237 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: Dan um Eckler is as the the cow bell back 238 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: would concern me already. He's missed a practice this week. Um, 239 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: But I'll take the Rams. I think Stafford is the 240 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: difference maker that I know. That's been the offseason story 241 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 1: that's been pounded more than pretty much any but it's 242 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: also the one that's been around the longest. It was 243 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: the first move of the year. I'm going to I'm 244 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: really excited to see what he looks like in this 245 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: offense with McVeigh. So I'll just first blush say the 246 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: Rams on that. What would you say? The Rams lack 247 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: of depth, like they're top heavy. The talent they have 248 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: is really top end. You know, the running situation concerns 249 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: me a little bit. I do love, you know, having 250 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: those defensive, impactful defensive players. There's no other team that 251 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: has two players like that. And but I do worry 252 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: about in that division, you're gonna beat each other up. 253 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: I mean, even Arizona is not a pushover. And if 254 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: you don't have that depth, then I wonder about that. 255 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: I always go I've gone all in on the Chargers 256 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: many many times, and they always disappoint me. I think 257 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: Staley is going to be a difference maker. I really do. 258 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: I like him. I like him a lot. You went 259 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: to Dayton, so you should I know that he's a 260 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: quarterback at Dayton turned defensive guy, and I do believe 261 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: they've got the right guy. Um. Some of the things 262 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm hearing out of the Chargers locker room is they 263 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: love him. They they have bought what he sold the 264 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: minute he showed up. And I think that will be 265 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: some some difference maker that you'll see in wins and losses. 266 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: And potentially, and I have to say this, potentially is 267 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: doing a very heavy lift, potentially remove the bat guano 268 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: crazy things that happened to the Chargers when there's ten 269 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: seconds left in the clock or less. That always seems 270 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: to beset this team. I think it'll be different, but 271 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: I'll just still take the rams Donald upfront and Derwin 272 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: I mean and and Jalen Ramsey in the back. I 273 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: would take those two over Bosa and Derwin James by 274 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: a margin. I would take them on that defensive side. 275 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: Have a great week, and I know you got to 276 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: get up early on Sunday, right, Oh, yes, back, but 277 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: the wind beneath my wings on that Dan, my my 278 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: my new studio that I'm I'm I'm broadcasting from. Uh. 279 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: The NFL network built this beautiful palace across the street 280 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: from so far and it is amazing. The whole place 281 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: has got a whole jo jolt of energy to it. 282 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: So it's going to be phenomenal. Now you're you're revealing 283 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: that on Sunday, because I last night, that was it. Oh, 284 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: that was it. I couldn't tell difference. No, I mean 285 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: it looked nice, okay, good, Yeah, but it was good. 286 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: If you would have said, here here's some things to 287 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: keep an eye on.

We 297 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:16,959 Speaker 1: actually have about a twenty thirty yard space outside and 298 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,160 Speaker 1: the backdrop is so fi stated we have not used 299 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: that yet.

He 330 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: was on the call on Westwood One Radio last night 331 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: and get his thoughts off Dak Prescott and Tom Brady 332 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: and was at a push off by Chris Godwin on 333 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: the game winning drive as soon as Brady got the 334 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: ball and I went, he's got less than two minutes, Yeah, 335 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: this is over. The question was how far was the 336 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: game winning field goal going to be? But Brady, once again, 337 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: you get him in those situations and he usually does damage, 338 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 1: as we've seen throughout his Hall of Fame career. Eight seven, seventh, 339 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: three d P Show email address, dpit Dan Patrick dot com, 340 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: Twitter handle a DP show this weekend, we can expect 341 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 1: sports to be a focal point of the nation as 342 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: we mark the twentieth anniversary of nine to eleven. And 343 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: of course nothing about that terrible day is a sports story. 344 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: But sports played a really significant role in the nation 345 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: bringing us back together, and there was a lot of 346 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: debate on when should the sports come back, and when 347 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: they did, the games captured the spirit of the country, 348 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: and I remember President George W. Bush throwing out the 349 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: first pitch at the World Series in New York. Everybody cheered, 350 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: teams and players honored the heroes who tried to help 351 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: pull that day on nine to eleven and fans were 352 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: given the chance to remember and cheer, like we just 353 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: wanted to get back together and cheer and have something positive. 354 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: The Mets and Yankees will play on Sunday with NYPD 355 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: and NYFD written on their uniforms. NFL teams will present 356 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: video tributes before the games. And I know games don't 357 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: matter within such an important date, but they really do 358 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: because they were really important part of helping the nation 359 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: heal on one of the saddest days in our history. 360 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: Joe Torrey, the Hall of Famer MLB Special Assistant to 361 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 1: the Commissioner and won four World Series titles, was the 362 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: Yankees with the Yankees, and he was there that night 363 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 1: and Joe joins us. Now, Joe, thanks for joining us. 364 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: What do you think about when you think about that night? 365 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: Just horrible. I mean I got numb, and you know 366 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: it's still when I when I think back, and you're 367 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: never going to forget, you never want to forget, but 368 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: you know, you're really you know, there were a couple 369 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: of different emotions. I mean, you were scared, you were mad, 370 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: and just nine to eleven was it was such a 371 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: tough day. I didn't even have a TV on because 372 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: I was scheduling to do a charity lunch and that day, 373 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: and I was just getting myself ready in my bedroom 374 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 1: and car service called me and said, well, I guess 375 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: it's canceled. I said, what are you talking about? And 376 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: turned on the TV and saw what was happening like 377 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: everybody else and you know, really baseball and on the 378 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 1: back burner for me to be honest with you, Dan, 379 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 1: because what was what was happening right then was just 380 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: something that never thought you'd ever see. And then when 381 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: baseball came back, what were your emotions? Well, you know, 382 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: you had some time to think about it. And I'll 383 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: tell you what really moved me off, the fact that 384 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,239 Speaker 1: you know, all we do is play a game. Was 385 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: on the Saturday, after nine to eleven, we were we 386 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: were in New York. We hadn't started baseball yet as 387 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: far as games, and it was decided that we're going 388 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: to start getting cranked up again on Monday, so we 389 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: were going to be on the road. So Saturday I 390 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 1: had a workout of whoever was left in New York 391 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 1: because a lot of my players got in the car 392 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: and drove home. I know, Pettit and uh and Clemens 393 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: drove back to Texas together and uh, you know, so 394 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: we were we were going to have a workout at 395 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium on that Saturday, and then afterwards, you know, 396 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: we had a good number of players and some coaches. 397 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: We've gotten bead bands and went to ground zero. We 398 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: started out actually at the Jabbat Center where it was 399 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: a staging area where all those uh, first responders and 400 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: firefighters from all over the country were you know, basically living. 401 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: You know, they were sleeping there and eating there and 402 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: just taking their turns going back to to the towers 403 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: to see if they could rescue. And then you realized 404 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: over time it was just going to be a recovery. 405 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:39,959 Speaker 1: And and then we went from from the Jabbot Center, 406 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: we went to Saint Francis Hospital with hopes of, you know, 407 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: that we could visit some victims, but there were no 408 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: victims there were the only ones that were there were 409 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: again firefighters who had smoke in relations issues. And from 410 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: Saint Francis we went to the armory. Now I was 411 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: a little hesitant or a little sensitive about going into 412 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: the armory because this is where the family members were 413 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: waiting to hear get DNA results from you know, from 414 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: their their loved ones, and so we finally realized that 415 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: we should go in. We did go in. Uh. Those 416 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: people were separated at the floor of the of the 417 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: armory was was completely filled and it had you know, 418 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: low partitions separating the families. Uh, and groups of people, 419 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: counselors and clergymen were there. And and this one family. 420 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: We were walking around the perimeter and this one family 421 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: sort of signaled us to come on over. And we 422 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: walked over toward this this family, and Bernie Williams uh 423 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: sent this woman. He says, I don't know what to 424 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: say to you, he says, but you look like you 425 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: need a hug. And with that he grabbed her and 426 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: hugged her and uh, and it sort of loosened up 427 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: everybody else. They started coming toward us and bringing pictures. 428 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: This is it was so powerful to me, Dan was 429 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: they were bringing pictures of their of their loved ones, 430 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: wearing Yankee you know, jerseys and caps and jackets and 431 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: saying what a big fan he was or she was. 432 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: And it was at that point that I realized that, 433 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 1: you know, even though all we did was play a game, 434 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,239 Speaker 1: it was a game that people really needed to have 435 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: at that point in time. As to sort of get 436 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: in the way of the horror they've been going through. 437 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: And at the time, I don't know if you feel 438 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 1: like you're helping, but you're also intruding. At Dan, there 439 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: was no question that was the hesitancy I had that 440 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: we were intruding on their private you know, serious time, 441 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: uh and sad time. And and really that's when you 442 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: know someone had gone in. H. Randy Lemine, who was 443 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: our president, ran in and he waved us in about 444 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: five minutes later. And they wanted us in there because 445 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: we I can't tell you how long we spent there, 446 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 1: but we spent a good deal of time and people 447 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: we're looking for and distraction. I don't think it's strong 448 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: enough word, but they wanted somebody to get in the 449 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: way of what they were dealing with. What was that 450 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: moment like when uh President Bush went out there and 451 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: threw the first pitch. Well, you know, we had just 452 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: lost the first two games in Arizona to the Diamondbacks, 453 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: so this our first game at home. And you know, 454 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: it's interesting you always have a meeting because they were there, 455 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: there was a curiosity whether he was going to be 456 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: there or not. They never definitively said he was coming. 457 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: But which you can understand. But both managers and general 458 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: managers always win the umpire's room about an hour or 459 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: so before the game to have a meeting with you know, 460 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: with the umpires, just to go over the local ground 461 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: rules and stuff. Now we had had this meeting in Arizona, 462 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 1: but this the first game in New York. And you 463 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: go around, and you know, you shake everybody's hand, you 464 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: shake all the umpire's hands, and all of a sudden 465 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: there was an umpire you didn't recognize, and you realize 466 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: it was a secret serviceman uh in an umpire's uniform, 467 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 1: in an umpire's uniform. And when when President Bush through 468 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 1: the first pitch, he was standing around home plate with 469 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: all the other umpires. And but when when President Bush 470 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: came through the runway, you know, into the dugout, I 471 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: met him at the mouth of the runway and he 472 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 1: said to me, he says, you're going to kick their butts. 473 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: I said, we're going to try. And with that he just, 474 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, crisply went up the steps and out to 475 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 1: the mound, waved to the fans, and had a very 476 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: determined look of going right to the top of the mound, 477 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: which you come to find out later on that Derek 478 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 1: Jeter sort of dared him because he was telling them 479 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 1: all the bad things that New York fans will do 480 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: to you if you don't get on top of them. 481 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: So and and and by the way, President Bush, you 482 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: better not bounce it. So all that. And you know, 483 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: I was at an event with the with the former 484 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: president a couple of years ago, and he was telling 485 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: that story to UH, to the people he was he 486 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: was speaking to. It was really funny that Derek basically 487 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 1: threatened him, you know, but he went out there and 488 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: I'll be daring if he doesn't throw a just throw 489 00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: a strike right there. And you know, here's Jeter adding 490 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: levity to a serious moment because you know, I was 491 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: told that the President may have had, you know, a 492 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: vest on, a bulletproof vest on. I said, right, he 493 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: did have that. And and Derek warmed up with him 494 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: in the batting cage underneath the stands, and you know, 495 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: because he that's the one thing he didn't want to 496 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: do is bounce it. He wanted to show strength and 497 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: he felt that was a part of it. And of 498 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: course Derek, you know, he's got that that sort of 499 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: dry sense of humor, because of you know, everybody should 500 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: be as comfortable in their skin as Derek Jeter, and 501 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: and and and as I say, the President, you know, 502 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: obviously took it the way Derek meant it. And you 503 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: know he was pumped. I mean, he he felt again 504 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: that he needed to show strength, and he went out 505 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: there and certainly answered the belt. Coming up tomorrow, it'll 506 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: be a city field where Bobby Valentine will throw out 507 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: the ceremonial first pitch with you. Are you going to 508 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: the top of the mound though, Joe, Now, well, uh, 509 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: I hope not. And if Bobby Valentine is going to 510 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: the top of the mound, you could that that may 511 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: be the first fight we have tomorrow. And I because 512 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm you know, my heart would be in the right place, 513 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: but I'm not sure the ball would be in the 514 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: right place, So we're probably gonna cut it in half. 515 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: Did you ever yell at Jeter? Did? I did yell 516 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: at Jeter? But from one Well, there was a play 517 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: that well spring training, actually his first spring um, you know, 518 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: where he didn't cover second base. He likes to tell 519 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: the story where you know, he didn't cover second base 520 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: on a on a play. It was it would have 521 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: been the third out of an any and he assumed 522 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: they were going to throw it the first and he 523 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: didn't cover second, and you know, he come in and 524 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: got on deck and stuff, and I just told him 525 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: to get his head out of you know what, and 526 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: you know, get with it. And I even forgot that 527 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: whole thing. He had to remind me. But there was 528 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: a time also in Chicago where he tried to steal 529 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,719 Speaker 1: third base with Cecil fielder hitting, and and we were 530 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: one run behind and two out in the eighth inning, 531 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: and I threw some stuff in the dugout, which thank goodness, 532 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: nobody videoed. But and when he came in, I said, 533 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: I remember saying that don Zimmer, I said, I won't 534 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: won't talk to him because this was his rookie year. 535 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: I said, I'm not going to talk to him until tomorrow. 536 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: I just don't want to distract him. We're trying to 537 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: win a game. And with that, after the half inning 538 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: was over, he come into the dugout and he wedged 539 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: himself right between Zimmer and myself. He'd just come over 540 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,040 Speaker 1: to take his lumps. You know, that was it. I 541 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: hit him in the back of the head. I said, 542 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: get out of here, because that told me he knew 543 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: that he's screwed up. But he was a game where 544 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: he came to work every day and he knew that 545 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: he was just one of the guys and really earned 546 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: earned and earned a lot of respect from the veterans 547 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: that first year, which is very surprising for a young player. 548 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: How's the arm? I mean, you played third base and 549 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 1: you were a catcher. You how's the hose? Can you? 550 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: Can you still get it there? Well? I had all 551 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: rotator cuffs into surgery since them, which should make it better. 552 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: But I may be able to throw it, damn, But 553 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm not sure exactly what direction? Didn't you once? What 554 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: was the batting average? Three sixty three? Three sixty three years? 555 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: And you and you weren't exactly you know fast? No, 556 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: I didn't get many of those hits, right, It was. 557 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: It was a magical year. Don't ask me, but it was. 558 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: It was a special time. And three sixty three, though, 559 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: I mean I had two hundred and thirty hits. It 560 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: was crazy, It was crazy. I also have you for 561 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: twenty three stolen bases in eighteen seasons. Not bad. And 562 00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: you know I tried, I tried to steal once in 563 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: every part of the country. This way, it would be 564 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: a shop. I remember Tom Sieber. Tom Sieber was on 565 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: the mound one night and I'm gonna you know, and 566 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: the only time I would try to steal was like 567 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: if there was two strikes on the hit her, you know, 568 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: a stuff like that, where he'd get a free count 569 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: next inning. And Tom Sieber would always come to a 570 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: you know, a set position and look over the first 571 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: base and then would pitch. So he did that, and 572 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: he looked over the first base, and when he went 573 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: back to you know, looked toward home. I took off, 574 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: and then he looked back over there and he's still 575 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: through home figuring out not going to make it anyway. 576 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, but that, yeah, twenty three stolen bases that 577 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: may have been inflated. See what happened. Thanks again for reminiscing, 578 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: and have fun with Bobby Valentine tomorrow and this weekend. Joe, 579 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: it's always great to talk to you. Thanks Dan. Same here. 580 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 1: That's Joe Tory, Hall of Famer and Major League Baseball 581 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: Special Assistant to the Commissioner.

Bobby Valentine, who was the 583 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: Mets manager back you know, following nine to eleven, and 584 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 1: Joe Torrey the ceremonial first pitches. I did not know 585 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: about the umpire secret Service umpire because you don't think 586 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: about that when the president's going out there, you're noticing 587 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: the president. Well, the secret Service's job is not to 588 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 1: be noticed as secret service, and he's in a full 589 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: umpire outfit. Yeah. Pretty, that's one of those nights where 590 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,879 Speaker 1: you're rooted everybody. It was just it was just this 591 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: wave of emotion where it just was hitting you and 592 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: you're like wow. Because sports can play that role, sometimes 593 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: we ask it to play a different role, or more 594 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: of a role that sports is a distraction. But that night, 595 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: it felt like we needed sports to bring us all 596 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: back together. Pretty emotional moment. All right, we'll take a break. 597 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: We'll get to phone calls this final hours to meet Friday. 598 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: In case you're living vicariously through our tragger grills smoked 599 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: pork ribs and sausage chili.

I mean, I 659 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 1: think they did a lot of good things. Bucks didn't 660 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: look as good as I think we all expected them 661 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: to look. Coming back with all the starters. You expected 662 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: them to pick up where they left off. They were, 663 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: they were a little. You know, they were all over 664 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,360 Speaker 1: the place. If you're a Cowboys fan today, how do 665 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: you feel? I think you feel pretty good. You know, 666 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 1: moral victories. We always talk about him or say that's 667 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: that's not really a thing in the NFL because it's 668 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: about winning football games. But I just said what I 669 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: expected to happen last night, and the Cowboys took him 670 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: down to the wire. The Cowboys had opportunities, they made 671 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: some mistakes. Otherwise, man, they could have been had this 672 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: game in hand a lot earlier. But I think the 673 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: biggest thing is is Dak Prescott. You know, you're coming 674 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 1: back from the injury. We wondered what we were going 675 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: to get. You just signed him to the big deal. 676 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: You know some people were still wondering is he a 677 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: franchise guy? Can he carry this team with his right arm? 678 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: He answered all of those questions last night. You know, 679 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: I think what they can be, what they want to be, 680 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: that they want to be at throw first team, which 681 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: is what the NFL has gone to. And Dak showed 682 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: him we can do this. And the defense stepped up 683 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: and made some plays when they needed to. Still, I 684 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: don't know if it's a championship defense yet. But if 685 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: you got an offense that can play like that, and 686 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: Dak plays like that consistently, they're going to surprise a 687 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: lot of people and they're gonna win a lot of 688 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: football games this year. So I think if you're a 689 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 1: Cowboys fan, you're you're excited today, going, yeah, we went 690 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: toe to toe with the champs and probably should have 691 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: won that football game. We're feeling pretty good about ourselves, 692 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 1: all right. More concerned lack of a running game or 693 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: the lack of pressure on Tom Brady, I'm gonna probably 694 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: say pressure, you know. The lack of running game, you know, 695 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: worries me a little bit. You want to be able 696 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 1: to run it, especially because that's what their identity was 697 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. But what we saw last 698 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: night is what a lot of teams are starting to 699 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: do now, is that it's running back by committee, and 700 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:44,800 Speaker 1: a big part of their run game is the quick, 701 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: little wide receiver screens, bubble screens that you throw to guys. 702 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,359 Speaker 1: It's just has become the nature of our league and 703 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: so everybody's doing that stuff. So I expect Dallas to 704 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 1: do a lot more of that, maybe not the typical 705 00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,240 Speaker 1: hand it off to Zeke you know, and run between 706 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 1: the tackles. But yeah, my concern is that, again, when 707 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 1: you play good teams and good quarterbacks, you have to 708 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: get consistent pressure, and last night it was almost like 709 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 1: non existent. You know, Tom Brady, we all know how 710 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: Grady is, and the offensive line is really really good, 711 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 1: but there was just no consistent pressure. And in critical 712 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 1: situations when you know they have to throw, you've got 713 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 1: to have some guys that can do that, and they 714 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: did not. And that's been kind of a theme over 715 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: the last couple of years, even with Tank Lawrence and 716 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,560 Speaker 1: some of those guys up front that you expect to 717 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: be able to be more consistent in that area. So that, 718 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: to me is probably the biggest concern with Tom Brady. 719 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 1: He doesn't have athleticism to lose. I think we're waiting 720 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: to see if his arm strength is still there. And 721 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: as a former quarterback, how would you assess Tom Brady's 722 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 1: arm strength yesterday? The last night? I mean, to me, 723 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 1: there's there's no issue there, And you know, it's really 724 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: what what do you look at? Because I know a 725 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: lot of people look at arm strength and they say 726 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 1: how far can you throw it? Well, okay, if that's 727 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: what's your barometer is we have the hailm area at 728 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 1: the end of the half where he throws it a 729 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: good sixty yards, launches it up in the air, no problem. 730 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: You barely need to throw it more than sixty yards 731 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: in a game at any point in time. But to me, 732 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: when I look at arm strength, I look at the 733 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:15,760 Speaker 1: ability to throw from A to B and I always 734 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: use the term firm butts offt you know, the ability 735 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: to put enough on the ball that it gets there quickly, 736 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,319 Speaker 1: but also the touch to put it where it needs 737 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: to be and make it available for your receivers. And 738 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: we saw that over and over and over again last 739 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: night with Tom Brady. He can throw the go route 740 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: and he can throw those balls down the field a 741 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: touchdown to a B. No issues with how far he 742 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: can throw it. But to me that to see other 743 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 1: stuff is that there's zip on the ball, the balls 744 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 1: getting there when it needs to get there. So I mean, 745 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 1: I know, we continue to talk about it, Dan, and 746 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: I'm I'm with you, is that he plays a game 747 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 1: a certain way and he always has that isn't just 748 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: going to fall off a shelf and all of a 749 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: sudden he can't play with his mind and he can't 750 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 1: play with timing. And I believe he's always going to 751 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: have enough arm strength to be able to play this 752 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: game as long as he's got that power behind it. 753 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,399 Speaker 1: And so to me, he looked as good as ever 754 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: last night, and you know, just I know we're all 755 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: amazed by it, but I just expected every time now 756 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 1: is that he keeps himself in great shape and you 757 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: see that every time he steps on the field. But 758 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: he explained to us that that window that you have 759 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 1: and how quickly that window closes when you're back there 760 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: trying to process all of this and you can see something, 761 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 1: but you've got to make it happen. Explain that process 762 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: in your mind. Well, I mean the process, the idea 763 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: is just knowing ahead of time what you're going to do. 764 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: And you know that is the difference between guys like 765 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and these young guys that are extremely talented 766 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,360 Speaker 1: and they have these unbelievable arms, they do all of 767 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: this stuff. Tom Brady can process and see things beforehand, 768 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 1: know and have a really good idea on what he's 769 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: going to do after the snap. And that's the whole game, 770 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: And especially when you get older, is that it's about 771 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: being able to know. Okay, I know what I'm gonna 772 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:04,359 Speaker 1: get here. All I've got to do is peak this guy. 773 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: If he turns his shoulders that way, I'm throwing it 774 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,439 Speaker 1: out here. He turns his shoulders this way, I'm throwing 775 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: it back inside. And a guy like Tom Brady watching 776 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 1: him process that information and know, you know we always 777 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 1: talk about this with quarterbacks, Right, You're not going to 778 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:20,479 Speaker 1: show Tom Brady something he hasn't seen before. Well that's 779 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 1: just a relative term because it all comes down to 780 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,479 Speaker 1: what you see in that moment. But he's so good 781 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 1: at knowing who do I look at? What defender do 782 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 1: I read on this particular play? And if you can 783 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: simplify the game and you don't have to know where 784 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 1: eleven guys are at all times, you need to know 785 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: where one or two guys are at all times. And 786 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: if you know which one or two guys that is 787 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 1: on a play, it makes the game easier and you 788 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: can just process and get to the guy that you 789 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 1: want to. And Tom Brady, again, he's the best of 790 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 1: a lot of different things, but he's the best in 791 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,799 Speaker 1: the business of being able to see those things and 792 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 1: process them so quickly. So he could do the right 793 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: thing with the football. You were twenty eight, I think 794 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:02,359 Speaker 1: when you made your first NFL start, Yes, sir, Now, 795 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson's twenty one. What would you have been like 796 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: at twenty one in the NFL as opposed to twenty eight. 797 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, And I look at Zach Wilson, 798 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,959 Speaker 1: because you know, Zach Wilson, I guess played a couple 799 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 1: of years in college. I played one year in college 800 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: when I was on the field, playing as a full 801 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: time starter, and I realized from the time I was, 802 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 1: you know, that age or maybe even a little older 803 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: when I when I graduated, to the time I came 804 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: back in the NFL, how much football I learned, you know, 805 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 1: how much I grew, how much situational stuff playing arena 806 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 1: football and in Europe I got to experience that I 807 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 1: hadn't experienced that one year playing ball. Yeah, yeah, I 808 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 1: played well. Zach Wilson played great, you know, last year. 809 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 1: But there's so many things that you think you have 810 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 1: to grow through and you have to understand. And so 811 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 1: you know, these guys are ahead of the game. They 812 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: do all the seven on sevens, and they throw the 813 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 1: ball a lot more and see a lot more situations. 814 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,440 Speaker 1: But that, to me is what you look for with 815 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: a young guy, is how do they handle all these 816 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: things that are going to be thrown at them, you know, 817 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:11,800 Speaker 1: not the least of it as being an NFL starting 818 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: quarterback in New York and the scrutiny and press. You're 819 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 1: an expectation that comes with that. So I don't know 820 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: if I would have been very good when I was 821 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 1: twenty one years old. I'm fortunate that I got seasoned 822 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 1: a little bit through that time, and when I got 823 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 1: to be twenty eight, I was much more mature and 824 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: who I was as a player and who I was 825 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,839 Speaker 1: as a person to be able to deal with all 826 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 1: the stuff that comes with it. We're talking to Kurt Warner, 827 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 1: the Hall of Famer NFL Network analyst. He was on 828 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,439 Speaker 1: the call on Westwood One last night with Kevin Harland. Yeah, 829 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: trying to understand these quarterbacks, and I know that they 830 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: grew up in a different era as far as being 831 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 1: acclimated to five wide when you're in high school, calling 832 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: your own plays at the line of scrimmage, private coaches, 833 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 1: all of these things. But you know, Trevor Lawrence is 834 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: on a team that's not very good, whereas Mac Jones 835 00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 1: is on a team that I think will be a 836 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 1: playoff team. The difference in those two situations is what 837 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,839 Speaker 1: the biggest part of that is bad team quarterback, good 838 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 1: team rookie quarterback. I think the biggest challenge is not 839 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 1: feeling like you have to do everything. Is if you're 840 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 1: in a situation like Mac Jones and you say yourself, man, 841 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 1: we can run the ball, or we can scheme guys, 842 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 1: or our defense. We know Bill Belichick is always going 843 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 1: to have a good defense and not allow a bunch 844 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,400 Speaker 1: of points each and every game. It helps you to 845 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: settle in and go okay. I know there's expectations because 846 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,439 Speaker 1: I was a number one draft pick or the number 847 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,240 Speaker 1: one overall pick, but I don't have to do everything 848 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: on my own. And that's going to you know, implement itself. 849 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,680 Speaker 1: You're gonna see that play out. You know, if you're 850 00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence coming in and you don't have that defense 851 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: and your number one pick and everybody expects you to 852 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: be you know, you hear all these things out you 853 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: the best prospects of Pete Manning or these things that 854 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: you hear, and now your team's not very good. And 855 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,399 Speaker 1: you're expected to win and make a difference. I think 856 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: it's so much easier to start pressing and going, Okay, 857 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: I gotta make every throw. I've got to do everything 858 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:05,840 Speaker 1: for this team. I can't ever throw the ball away. 859 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,320 Speaker 1: I've got to run around and make these special plays 860 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,839 Speaker 1: to be a difference maker for my team. And oftentimes 861 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: that can take you in the wrong direction, especially if 862 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: you're not made up the right way, where you're gonna 863 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 1: go through lumps and you're gonna throw a bunch of 864 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: interceptions because you're trying to do too much. So that's 865 00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: something I'm always watching with every rookie quarterback, but specifically 866 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 1: in situations where a guy is drafted that high and 867 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 1: a team around him isn't that good yet, the expectation 868 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 1: is for that young man to come in and make 869 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: an immediate difference, no matter who's around him. It's great 870 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 1: to talk to you. I know you had a busy 871 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 1: schedule getting back home and we appreciate you joining us. Kurt, 872 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,280 Speaker 1: Thank you, you gotta Dan, we'll talk soon. That's Kurt Warner, 873 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: All of Famer joining us on behalf of the NFL 874 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 1: Network in Westwood One. By the way, Tom Brady is 875 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: now fifteen and four all time in Week one. That's 876 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: the most wins during the NFL's opening weekend during the 877 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 1: Super Bowl era. So that's back in nineteen sixty six, 878 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 1: and Tom Brady has never launched to the Cowboys. TB 879 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:08,000 Speaker 1: twelve is six And oh yeah, Paully, Once in a while, 880 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 1: I'll say Nick Voles has the weirdest career. Kurt Warner's 881 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 1: got the weirdest careers up there, barely playing one year 882 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:16,720 Speaker 1: of college NFL, then the Barnstormers of the Arena League, 883 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:19,080 Speaker 1: then NFL Europe where he shares time with Jake Delom. 884 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,960 Speaker 1: Then he gets a job in Saint Louis at age 885 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 1: twenty eight, nineteen ninety nine, and Trent Green was the 886 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: big money guy. Yeah, and you wonder, I mean, this 887 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: is what happens. Tom Brady gets the chance because Drew 888 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: Bledsoe gets hurt, Trent Green goes down, Kurt Warner gets 889 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 1: the chance. You wonder you know the history of the 890 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 1: NFL and how it would have been rewritten with some 891 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 1: of these moments here. Yeah, Paul, remember Kurt about ten 892 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 1: years ago told us the story. He was scheduled to 893 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,320 Speaker 1: have a meeting with Chicago, the Chicago Bears, and he 894 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 1: got a spider bite on a camping trip, and he 895 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 1: switched the order and went and saw the Rams and 896 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: then was going to go see the Bears. Yeah, which 897 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 1: he obviously couldn't have succeeded as a quarterback with the Bears, 898 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 1: because that doesn't happen. Jacob in Nevada joins us. Hey, Jake, 899 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: what's on your mind? Hey guys, first time caller, A 900 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: long time listener, six four, I I one eighty five. 901 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: Where are you right now? Jacob? I am actually the 902 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 1: biggest gold mine in America, but in Nevada, Bielco. Wait, 903 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 1: you're in a gold mine. Yeah, the biggest gold mine 904 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 1: in the US. And and what are you doing in 905 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:37,440 Speaker 1: the gold mine? Me? I change out the uniforms for 906 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 1: the guys. Huh, Well you could wait to get out 907 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,400 Speaker 1: of the gold mine to call us. No for birthday? 908 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 1: I got in on my birthday. Oh okay, Well what's 909 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: on your mind today, Jacob? Happy birthday? Thank you? I 910 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,919 Speaker 1: just wanted to say I knew Tom Brady wasn't losing 911 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 1: that game off right when I think it was a 912 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:01,399 Speaker 1: shoulder check. A dude half to day full speed at him. 913 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:10,719 Speaker 1: All right, yeah, yeah, forty four years old. Shoulder check 914 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 1: and all right, well, thank you Jacob, happy birthday and 915 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 1: uh and good luck in the gold mine. He's changing 916 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: out the uniforms of those I did see that little 917 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 1: shoulder push that Brady had against this young defense back. 918 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 1: He's like, what are you doing? Tom? Uh? He wanted 919 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 1: to make contact and he knew that the Dallas defense 920 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,720 Speaker 1: was going to make contact with him. So Brady's always 921 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 1: been a guy. He really plays off contact. He feeds 922 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 1: off that. Yeah, like Josh Allen, Yeah, Paul, I didn't 923 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 1: see the clipp until you mentioned it. There's an interception 924 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: run back and Brady the play is just over and 925 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: he gives this kid a little little shoulder check. He 926 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: doesn't turn and walk away, and number six for the 927 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 1: Cowboys yelling something. I uh, it's a fish. PAC twelve 928 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 1: has extended membership invitations to Cincinnati, Houston, Central Florida, and 929 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: BYU the Big twelve, the Big twelve, Bigger twelve, Biggest twelve, 930 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:19,319 Speaker 1: sort of Big twelve? Is it twelve? Yes? Mcleven, that 931 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 1: sounds very conference USA, Yes it does. I don't think 932 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,879 Speaker 1: that exists anymore, right, I have no idea. Yeah, it's 933 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 1: so hard to keep chaka. The fact that we're not 934 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 1: sure probably tells you that it probably doesn't exist.
