1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. We were laughing. We

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: had a call last week. Little Zach, eight years of age,

4
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: called in. I want to talk about the Chargers, wonder

5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: if they were going to be good this year. And

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: I said, well, what's your favorite player? Who's your favorite player?

7
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers? And I went, oh, no, I don't think

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: Dad has told little Zach that Philip Rivers plays in

9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: indianapolist seller Cap Casualty. Dad, do you think he's a

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 1: whole famer? Welcome to the program. It's a final hour

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 1: on this Monday, best and worst of the weekend. What

12
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: you saw that you liked? You didn't like some of

13
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: the headlines here. NFL issues a statement on Friday the

14
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: fallout over the weekend. Some of the star players put

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: a video together that's gotten close to twenty million views,

16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: and late last night, the President of the United States

17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: twee did even could it be even remotely possible that

18
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: in Roger Goodell's rather interesting statement of peace and reconciliation

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: he was intimating that it would now be okay for

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: the players to kneel or not to stand for the

21
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: national anthem thereby disrespecting our country and our flag question mark.

22
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: So it will continue and it will be a big issue.

23
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 1: Certainly coming up in September, with this being in election year,

24
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: this will be an even bigger issue. What does the NFL,

25
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: what do the players do prior to that? Is there

26
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: a way to find some kind of happy medium, solid

27
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: ground where you can say what you want to say,

28
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: you can protest and maybe it's not affiliated with the

29
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: flag or it's during the anthem. But until then, there's

30
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: just going to be a lot of talk, a lot

31
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: of speculation for the next three months. And then once

32
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: those games start, you're already hearing some players saying that

33
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: they will kneel, and you'll have more players kneeling than

34
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 1: we had when Colin Kaepernick brought this to everybody's attention

35
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: over four years ago. Eight seven seven three d P

37
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: continues to be baseball. No progress right now. The NBA

38
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: with their plan of attack late July and the draft

39
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: is going to be I believe in is it October

40
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: mclovin that the NBA right after the season, Yeah, is

41
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: when they're going to hold the draft. Well, the last

42
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: game is games having will be October twelfth, and yeah,

43
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: I think it's a week or two after that. Yeah,

44
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: but baseball it's at least quiet, and to me, I

45
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: view that as progress. I don't need to have all

46
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: this leaked to the media because it feels like the

47
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: owners and Major League Baseball and the commissioner have leaked

48
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: a lot of this information here to make the players

49
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: look bad. It's about money. The question is are you

50
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: going to be able to get any movement. Baseball has

51
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: made a proposal to the players. Carl Ravage has this

52
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: seventy five percent pro rated salary, seventy six game season,

53
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: playoff pool money, no draft pick compensation for signing a player.

54
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: Season finishes September twenty seventh. Postseason ends at the end

55
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: of October. According to sources, this equates to roughly two

56
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars more in player salaries. The fifty game

57
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: season is not a threat, rather a negotiated right. Hopefully

58
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: this first further dialogue. If not, we will play a

59
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: shortened season. Now, this is a Major League Baseball proposal,

60
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: just a proposal to the players. It's according to Carl Ravage. Yes,

61
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: mclum by, the NBA Draft, October fifteenth. Okay, so three

62
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: days after a game seven Affairs one, I was looking

63
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: at you know, I don't think there's any great player

64
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: in this draft, at least Marquee name. There might be

65
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: great players down the road that come out of this draft,

66
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: but Anthony Edwards who plays for Georgia, James Wiseman, the

67
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: seven footer who played at Memphis for a handful of games.

68
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 1: I think LaMelo Ball is going to be a top

69
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: five pick, and at that size as a point guard,

70
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: and it feels like his offensive game is a little

71
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: further developed than his older brother. His shots a little better,

72
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,919
Speaker 1: you know the number of times. The first time I

73
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: saw him was his freshman year in high school, and

74
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: I thought he has a chance to be the best

75
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: player in the family because as a freshman he was

76
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: starting and he was playing well. Lie Angelo was just

77
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: a guy who got a lot of points. He was

78
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: a bigger guy and he could post up, but it

79
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: didn't feel like he could run up and down. And

80
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: then he had Lonzo, who was really really good. But

81
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: LaMelo is going to be an interesting case study that

82
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: high school and then deciding not to finish high school,

83
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: and then you go to Australia and now you're coming back,

84
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: and I'd find him fascinating. I still go back to

85
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: his dad thinks he knows so much basketball, you'd think

86
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: he was holding the ladder for James Naysmith when he

87
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 1: put up the first peach basket. There can't teach his

88
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: He's got one kid who's a great shooter, who can't

89
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: play in the NBA. Lo Angel is a really good shooter,

90
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: deep shooter. Lonzo and Lamello not good shooters. Not good

91
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: for him whatsoever. I always found that interesting. Yeah, mclub,

92
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: what about your guy from Dayton, Obie Topping, He's in

93
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: the top three or four in a lot of box.

94
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: Yeah it. But let's now, this is based off Golden

95
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: State getting the number one pick because they had the

96
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: worst record. Who does Golden State? You know, if you

97
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: take Anthony Edwards, you're taking somebody who's going to back

98
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: up Clay Thompson. You're gonna get a guy who's not

99
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 1: even gonna start for you. But I don't know who.

100
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: You know, there's another team that, if they had the

101
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: number one pick, may look big. You know, Obie top

102
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: and is you know, pretty impressive. Uh, And it just

103
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 1: feels like he's just starting to emerge as a great

104
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: player because he came out of network, because he went

105
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: to Dayton. Yeah, I'm club. Is there a wild you

106
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: could have a guy who played overseas, a Dayton guy,

107
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: a Georgia guy, like, where's the North Carolina? Do kids with? Kentucky? Yeah?

108
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: The kid from Israel? Is it Denny d e n

109
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: I uh? His last name begins with an A, Yeah, Denny.

110
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: I can't say it Dennydaji or something, but he Now.

111
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: I just saw his highlights, a whole lot of fun.

112
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 1: Hold on fun. Yeah, which is weirder the thing we

113
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: just talked about. If I told you two years ago,

114
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 1: we'll be discussing the Golden State Warriors have a number

115
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: one pick in the draft, or the Dayton Flyers have

116
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: the number one pick in the draft, or that LaMelo

117
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 1: Ball could be the number one pick in the draft.

118
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: Where does this? Or the draft of October? All right,

119
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: some phone call here, TJ in Tchexas, Hey, GJ, thanks

Speaker 1: win the national championship last night. My worst is Tennessee

123
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: and coach Dougs and Big Cat being exposed um in

124
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: front of one hundred thousand people, and Caleb Presley throwing

125
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: six interceptions unbelievable. Thanks for taking my call there, Thank

126
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: you big Cat from barstool playing some college football. Yeah,

127
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: Paul had a rough night last night. He got house

128
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: by votech his volunteers. He's going to recover. Uh. Kurt

129
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: in Oregon, Hey Kurt, what do you have for me today? Hey? Dan? Um? Yeah,

130
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: the worst autocorrect I did. Actually I almost sent instead

131
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: of happy Halloween. I almost sent happy Holocaust one time.

132
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: Oh that was not good. Oh yeah yeah, well hey,

133
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: best and worst of the weekend. Best was watching German

134
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: German Bundesli and I'm a huge soccer fan and um, yeah,

135
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: before the games in soccer, they traditionally they will pause

136
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: for moments of silence. All the players kneeled around the

137
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: center circle. And I had that idea of like, hey,

138
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: why not separate the you know, the anthem and the

139
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: flag from the protest and because of it truly isn't

140
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: about the flag and the anthem, then then that should

141
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: not be an issue. Yeah. I don't know, but we

142
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: can't make the rules though, thank you, Kurt. The players

143
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: have to make the rule. The players have to come

144
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: up with the suggestion here. That's the important part of this,

145
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 1: and maybe they find something that can satisfy both sides here.

146
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: I watched sixty minutes. They had a special last night,

147
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: I think around eight o'clock Eastern. It was on this

148
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: Italian composer who is going back and finishing symphonies and

149
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: operas of Holocaust victims. Oh is it powerful? And John Wertheim,

150
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: who was a former sportswriter, did a great job on

151
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: how they were writing music in the in these concentration camps.

152
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: And he's he went back and he's talked to descendants

153
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: of people who died and got this music, and he

154
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: is painstakingly putting together these symphonies pieces of music. Just

155
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: it was very, very, very powerful. And he went back

156
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: to Dachau, and you know this is where you have.

157
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: If you came in and you could play a musical instrument,

158
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: you could be saved. That there were there were men

159
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: and women who came in. If you played a musical instrument,

160
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: you would be part of sort of their house symphony

161
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: or house banned with this, and they would allow you

162
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: to play music and uh, you know some of those

163
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: people that their descendants talk about their parents or their

164
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: their fathers being able to be in the band an

165
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 1: orchestra there and uh and saved their lives. Very powerful.

166
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 1: Tommy in Kentucky joines, Hi, tom what do you have

167
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,280

00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: best I live in Kentucky and we finally opened our

170
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:19,679
Speaker 1: golf courses up, so it's a nice bell play. My

171
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: second best is over the weekend, I was looking for

172
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: a new rather than around for a new set of clubs,

173
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: and I was scrolling through the Facebook marketplace and I

174
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: saw a picture of some clubs which appeared to be Cataway.

175
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: I contacted the woman and I said, can you send

176
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: me a better picture? Well she did, and sure enough

177
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: there was a whole set of Cattaway irons from two

178
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: all three wedges, even a big birtha still head three wood. Yeah.

179
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: So I got a complete set of Cataway still Head

180
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: clubs for fifteen dollars. And when I asked her why

181
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 1: she was selling them for so cheap, recited uh to

182
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: uh spew out an extreme amount of explatives about her husband. Hey, Tommy,

183
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: stay on hold. I'm gonna send you, uh some some

184
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: golf balls. Okay, okay, sounds good. I'm gonna sell. We'll

Speaker 1: send you some golf balls. Good for you? Bad for

187
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: that husband probably went where are my clubs? I don't know.

188
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: Ain't seen him. I don't know? Uh? Ted and Tampa, Hey, Ted,

189
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: what do you have for him today? Yeah? How you can?

190
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: Morning dan u best for the weekend was a good

191
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: thing for Tom Brady. The Bucks down here finally got

192
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: around to signing Joe Hay from Indianapolis. Uh. Secure journeyman lineman.

193
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: But he's pretty good, so he should add to that line.

194
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: How do you feel about your line? Ted, I know

195
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: that you're nervous. They're six works in the league and

196
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: the first round draft pick is really getting annoyed. He

197
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,439
Speaker 1: was on radio this week and he said, how I'm

198
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: really going to annoy with the fact that everyone asked me,

199
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: how would you feel about playing left tackle? Yeah? I

200
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 1: know he wants to be right tackle. That's Tristan Worf's

201
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: out of Iowa there, But thank you, Ted. Ted always

202
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: reminds me that the offensive line is not very good

203
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: in Tampa. It's not, but they do have some talent

204
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: there on the offense, certainly with their weapons. Eric and

205
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 1: Florida Hi. Eric, would he have for me today? Yes,

206
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: six foot, two hundred pounds. But that's the weekend as

207
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: I was able to play golf twice this week in

208
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: despite it being pouring rain here in Florida. My worst

209
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: of the weekend is that there's no national media coverage

210
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: of the Jaguars holding their own protests. They got the teams,

211
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: and they got the team and their family together and

212
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: they marched down to the Jacksonal Sheriff's Office headquarter protest.

213
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: Chris Connelly, Marone, and Dave Caldwell all spoken. There just

214
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: hasn't been any media coverage of that. I'm pretty sure

215
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: the first professional sports organized protests because of this. Yeah,

216
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. I know the Broncos did

217
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: it as well. John Elways involved in that eight seven,

218
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: seventh three D P show email address DP at Dan

219
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: Patrick dot com. It was on this day, Paulie. I

220
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: know you do this day in sports history, got it.

221
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: But I was part of this well. I covered this

222
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six The Celtics defeated the Rockets on this

223
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: day to win the title in six games. The Celtics

224
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: finished the season eighty two and eighteen if you include

225
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs. That winning percentage of eighty two percent is

226
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: the seventh highest by any team all time and the

227
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: best in Celtics history. But to be there in Boston

228
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: in June, in that building, you were going into a sauna.

229
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: It was so it was always so hot and humid

230
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: in Boston. But I would go early, usually three hours

231
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: before the game started, and I had a way of

232
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: getting in and I would just listen for the ball

233
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: bouncing because that meant Bird was out there shooting. Now.

234
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: I never interrupted him ever. All I did is sit

235
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: there and watch him just shooting hoops and then he

236
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 1: would run the upper part of Boston Garden. This is

237
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: before the game. And Houston had a great team, and

238
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: I loved to lives you on. He was He's one

239
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: of my favorite players. And you had that Rockets team

240
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: was really good. But that Celtic team was great. Ye had.

241
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: He had Bill Walton coming off the bench, sixth man

242
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: of the Year. Send it in, big man. Yes, you know,

243
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: one of the great things that NBA TV does the

244
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: past few years is they show pregame warm ups, which

245
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: traditionally is boring, but about three or four years ago

246
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: they started showing Steph Curry's pregame warm up, and he

247
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: has this routine where he takes a series of off balanced,

248
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: weird shots. He didn't just pull up for eighteen footer. Yeah,

249
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: he practices shots that he's going to face in the game. Yeah,

250
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: he does like a fall away right, and he does

251
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: four those until he makes four, and they do it

252
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: on NBA TV. It's really fascinating to see the covers.

253
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: Nineteen eighty five, Larry Bird led the NBA with eighty

254
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: two three pointers made. That's the most in twenty seventeen

255
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. Four different players on the Warriors made more

256
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: than that. Clay Thompson two twenty nine, Steph two hundred

257
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: and twelve, Kevin Durant one seventy three, and Nick Young

258
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: at one twenty three. Four players. Why the game is

259
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: not even close? Game is champ What would Bird be

260
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: like today? And what would these players be like back

261
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: in the eighties if you weren't shooting threes? What would

262
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: what kind of player would Steph Curry be what would

263
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: Clay Thompson b Kevin Durant would still be Kevin Durant.

264
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: That wouldn't change because he the mid range jumper that

265
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: was in vogue back then. Yeah, McLevin. I saw that

266
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: team recently, the Celtics team out of Classic. They didn't

267
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 1: lift weights. I noticed, like that was also a slightly

268
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: different NBA. None of them had any muscle tone, even

269
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: Dennis Johnson, who was a two guard. Why do you

270
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: always do this, am I denicrating a team? Yes, you

271
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: always do it just well. Right around then, Jordan decided

272
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 1: to start lifting weights like it was they would We

273
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: argue about this all the time. Would those players have

274
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: trained differently? Now? Would they be ripped? Of course? Right?

275
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: Would Larry Bird look different? I'm I'm gonna assume he would,

276
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: but I don't know. He might have a better haircut,

277
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: and he might be I think Larry took the summer off.

278
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: You know it used to be baseball players would use

279
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: spring training to get in shape. You know they were.

280
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: They took the winter off and then they got in

281
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: shape in spring training. Now you come to spring training,

282
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: you're in shape. You want to get it even better shape.

283
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: I'm assuming that Larry would probably want to because he

284
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 1: was such a competitor to keep up with everybody. But

285
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: I look at Jordan the way I do Martina Navratilova.

286
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: They changed their sport. Tiger changed his sport from the

287
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: physicality of it, because I remember when Martina came out

288
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: there and she looked different than Tracy Austin or Chris Everett.

289
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: She was an athlete. And Jordan. Look at those the

290
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: video of Jordan when he's in North Carolina or just

291
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: starting with the bulls, I mean, he is thin. And

292
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: then look at Tiger, he is thin. And then all

293
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 1: of a sudden, that's when you got these guys who

294
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 1: look like athletes. All right, we'll take a break. More

316
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: put this one up off Connor McGregor, quote unquote retiring

317
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: which sport is the most reliant on one star? The

318
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: UFC with Conn McGregor, Golf with Tiger Woods, NBA with

319
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: Lebron James, are Women's tennis with Serena Williams. Oh well,

320
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 1: I don't know if Lebron goes in there. I just

321
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: I kinda I was thinking more like when Michael Jordan

322
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: left the NBA, they really struggled. But uh, I don't

323
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: know if Serena is in there now because I just

324
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 1: couldn't think of another women's tennis player. She's in her

325
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: mid thirties now. Yeah, Tiger Edge still put in there, Yeah,

326
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: Lebron I would put in there. Yeah, yeah, I would

327
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: say the sport of tennis in America fan Serena over

328
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: the past decade, twelve, maybe fifteen years. She's the number

329
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 1: one ranked. She's the only reason I think a lot

330
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: of casual sports fans watch tennis in America. There's no

331
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: one else in the top fifteen that's American basically usually

332
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: men's men's How long has it been since Andy Roddick

333
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: was relevant? A decade? Can anyone name one top ten

334
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: men's ranked tense player if there is one, I don't

335
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: know if there is, John isn't there? Maybe? Yeah, that

336
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: man that support us falling off from American fantasis not

337
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: worldwide because there was a time when you had you know,

338
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: McEnroe and Connors, you had a Gas, he had Pete Sampras,

339
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,199
Speaker 1: even Michael Chang, the King of the five setters. It

340
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: felt like every Michael Chang match went five sets and

341
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: he lost. Yes, Lovin, What about UFC with Connor McGregor

342
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: would they be able to would they be able to

343
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 1: withstand him really leaving? I don't know, because you know,

344
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 1: he retired over the weekend, and Dana White went on

345
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: a post fight rant about fighters don't need to fight

346
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: if they don't want in in the regular Like I

347
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: don't even know what he was trying to say at

348
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: the time, but he was. He was mad about these

349
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 1: fighters don't need to fight. John Jones traded shots with

350
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: Dana White over money in demands, Like You've had like

351
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: three or four guys over the weekend who were upset

352
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: with Dana White saying and you know what they're saying is, look,

353
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 1: we deserve a bigger piece of the gate here. Dana

354
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: White's good for fans, not good for marquee fighters here

355
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: in UFC. But that was over the weekend. Ryan in

Speaker 1: said earlier when you told mclovin that you should watch

364
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: a Better Call Saul before Breaking Bad. I would really

365
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: strongly disagree with that. I mean, I'm watching Better Call

366
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 1: Saul now after Breaking Bad, and there are just so

367
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: many references that you're going to miss if you don't

00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,280

376
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 1: George Washington, he's probably smart. Yeah. Sees won't get you

377
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: into George Washington, they won't, but once you get in there,

378
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: sees get degreed. Absolutely. Yeah. I couldn't get into Daton now,

379
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: but getting into Dayton, sees get degreas. Yes. Mcglov has

380
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: always said that once you get to an Ivy League

381
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 1: school you can get a SEA and get a diploma.

382
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: Is that actually true? So everywhere in the same Boat

383
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 1: as everybody else. The easy part is actually once you're in.

384
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: The hard part's getting in right this people who say

385
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: Harvard is a really easy grading school because all it

386
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 1: is a set up. What you get in it doesn't matter.

387
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 1: They employers just want to know you can get into Harvard. Yeah,

388
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: I think that's the truth. I would have liked Brown University.

389
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: No grades, yeah, no majors, co ed bathrooms everywhere, no

390
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: grades or is it pass fail pass fail? Oh? Yeah, yeah.

391
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 1: I think I would have done better at Brown. What

392
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 1: I was applying to school, as I remember, it was

393
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 1: a big deal. There's they this was they had no

394
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: they had no bathrooms. Every bathroom is co ed in

395
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: the nineties, and that freaked me out as an incoming freshman.

396
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know if I could do

397
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: that now. I think it's more standard. Yeah, but I

398
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: don't get that, Like why just saving space? I guess,

399
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's community living Brown day Uh, well,

400
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: there are other colleges that have co ed bathrooms, co

401
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: ed floors. I don't know. I don't know. And you're right, Dayton,

402
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: it's really hard to get into. I have a friend

403
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: who's Dayton grad who brags about it's like Georgetown ish. Now. Oh,

404
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: I know, we were kind of sheepish when we would

405
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: say that we graduated from Dayton. Nowadays you're like, uh, yeah,

406

413
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: was letting a lot of people easy. Yeah, well I

414
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: think it was easier. But you know, now all of

415
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: a sudden, you're like, hey, Dayton, that's a good school.

416
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: That's tough to get in. I go really all right,

00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: hand and hand waxing my new Mercedes. And the worst

422
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: of the weekend was my wife telling me to start

Speaker 1: and Kentucky joins us, Good morning, John, what do you

444
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: have for me today. Hey, damn best and worst of

445
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,719
Speaker 1: the weekend. Best based on your all suggestion, I've binge

446
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 1: watched Outer Banks. I thought it was awesome. Worst of

447
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: the weekend. I think horse racing has taken an impact

448
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: that no one's really thinking about. That's in Anita Derby,

449
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: which is usually a huge prep race for the Triple Crown.

450
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 1: I only had seven horses in a pretty weak field.

451
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 1: Just wanted to know your thoughts about that. I'm not

452
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: well versed in it, John. You know, once the Triple

453
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 1: Crown rolls along, then you know, I'll take note. But

454
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: I don't follow it that much. I know that there

455
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: was a horse Fauci that raced recently, and I think

456
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: it was described as practicing social distancing. It didn't do

457
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: as well as it I think on purpose it was

458
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: practicing social distancing with doctor Fauchi. I don't know if

459
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: the horses Faulchi or Doctor Fauchi. Yes, I think the

460
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: Belmont is in two weeks the I think they remember

461
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,200
Speaker 1: they reverse the order of the Triple Crown and they're

462
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: starting with the Belmont in late June, I with no fans.

463
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so they're kind of horse race even go

464
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: on as long as noone's there, So I think they're

465
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: going to have that. Wow, I'll watch it, I mean,

466
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: oh yeah I will. Yeah, yeah, pull. What would you

467
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: say at the acceptable age to take a child to

468
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: a race track? I think I think my dad took

469
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 1: me when I was nine, south Side Chicago. Oh, I

470
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: think having girls to take them just to see the horses.

471
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 1: But there's other things you see at the race track. No, no,

472
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: they could be shady. Well yeah, but I don't think

473
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: you're going to be in that area with said shadiness. Well,

474
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 1: but all the guys a lot of smoking, a lot

475
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: of I don't know if they let them smoke anymore.

476
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if they let them smoke either. I

477
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: think you'd be all right with just watching horses. Yeah,

478
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 1: it seems like there's something different about the track. Maybe

479
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 1: it is because it's horses and there's like there's animals there,

480
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: so it's like, look, come on, let's go and watch

481
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: the animals. Yeah. Yeah, I think you're all right. Don't

482
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,239
Speaker 1: take them to the OTB. No, No, don't take them.

483
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: No TB different. There's horses. I mean they're on the TV. Yeah,

484
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: but that's that. But going to the track. Yeah, the pageantry,

485
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: the Twins spires. I remember Churchill Downs. First time. I

486
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: was like, whoa. I went up to Saratoga when I

487
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: was self quarantined and I drove. So I was looking

488
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: at two hour trips where I could take each day

489
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: just to do something. And I drove all the way

490
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: up to Saratoga, went into downtown and the racetrack is

491
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: really close to downtown. Beautiful downtown. I got up there,

492
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: parked the car, got out, took a picture, got in

493
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 1: my car, and then drove two hours back. That was it.

494
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: Drove to Saratoga, beautiful place and nothing was going on.

495
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: It's like all right. So my wife said, what did

496
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 1: you do today? I said, I drove to Saratoga. What

497
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: did you do when you got there? I got out,

498
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: took a picture, and got back in the car and

499
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 1: drove back. That was it. Yeah, I'm a club. You

500
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: could not be righted by the OTB. Is there a

501
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: more's that's a little depressed When you walk in there.

502
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: They had that little TV. Oh that TV was always

503
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: black and white, but it's off track betting. And I

504
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: remember taking my father in law there and he would

505
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 1: just sit in there smoke heaters and he would put

506
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: a couple of dollars watching a horse race at ot B. Yeah, time,

507
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: I remember popping in there. I never bet on anything.

508
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: But not only was it a small black and white

509
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: TV up in a corner, but it usually was staticky

510
00:29:55,680 --> 00:30:00,719
Speaker 1: or blurry. It wasn't even a clear black. We'll get

511
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,479
Speaker 1: some more phone calls coming up. Did you do this

512
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: day in sports history? I have it when you need it. Yeah,

513
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:11,479
Speaker 1: all right. By the way, Ken Riley died, he was

514
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengal defensive back. In fact, we had a caller

515
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: from Cincinnati who called up a week or two ago

516
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: and said, what about Ken Riley going into the Hall

517
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: of Fame. He ended up with sixty five interceptions, which

518
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: would make him I think top five in NFL history.

519
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 1: He made the Pro Bowl, or maybe he made All

520
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 1: Pro one time. The last year of his career, at

521
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: age thirty six, he had eight interceptions, but he passed away.

522
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: Ken Riley. He's always sort of on the outside of

523
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, and you know, maybe the Veterans

524
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: Committee will look at this. Ken Riley played I think

525
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: fifteen or sixteen years old with the Cincinnati Bengals. You

526
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: should go in the Hall of Fame for just that?

527
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: What else do you have? Point? All right, this day

528
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: in sports history nine ten thirty four, and your Reds,

529
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: your sense Reds became the first major league team to

530
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: do this. Who wants a piece of it? Lights? Not Ooh,

531
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: it's a it's off the field more off the field bowl?

532
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 1: Nice call? And what year? Nineteen thirty four? The since

533
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,239
Speaker 1: Reds became the first major league team to do this. Uh,

534
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: but it wasn't lights at Crossley Field. Who wants it? Yeah,

535
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: play Pepper, No, it was the field play off the

536
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: field is right to the left of the field. It's

537
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: on the field. Let it's outside the ballpark? Sell beer

538
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: to use an airplane to travel from one city another.

539
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: They from Cincinnati to Chicago for a game. All right,

540
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: all right in style. Nineteen sixty nine, You're New York

541
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: Yankees retired Mickey Mantle's number seven. Nineteen sixty nine, it

542
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: was announced that there will be a single schedule for

543
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: both the NFL and AFL. That's says they were working

544
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: on their merger. And oh five, Alex Rodriguez became the

545
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 1: youngest player to reach four hundred career home runs. Wow,

546
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: he's still trying to buy a baseball team, isn't he

547
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: I think you mean the Mats as a base Yeah,

548
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: well I don't. I don't know if he's maybe he

549
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: is still trying to buy the bounce him and uh

550
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: j loo yeah, nicklu. Is there any chance that Fritzie

551
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: does not put Mickey Man all nineteen sixty nine because

552
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: he's so obsessed with it because the scoreboard has been

553
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: Mickey Mantle or Hank Aaron has been the answer sixty seven.

554
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: Maybe it's John Elwaite. Is a lot of great sevens.

555
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: You've been on that Mickey Mantle thing too long. I

556
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: have been running the Mickey Mantle Fritzie. Maybe maybe we

557
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: break the streak today Fritzie's scoreboard challenge that we'll we'll

558
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: reveal that during the live look in. That'll be reason

559
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: enough for you to watch YouTube. Ah, what what a

560
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: sales job? Yes, boy, to be fair to Fritzie. If

561
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: you go to this Day in History websites, it's probably

562
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 1: forty percent in New York Yankees related certain points of

563
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: the year. There's a lot of Lakers stuff, but it's

564
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 1: always Babe Ruth, Mickey Man on Lou Garrig DiMaggio and

565
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: then other baseball stop. But they legal league. Also, you

566
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: know NBA champions at this time of the year too,

567
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: just like the you know the Celtics there, yes, mclub. Yeah,

568
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: it'd be nice to be watching baseball or NBA finals

569
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: right now. One hundred years ago today, a player was

570
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: thrown out of a game for sleeping. He was in

571
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: the outfield. Ed Rausch, whilst standing up ed two d's.

572
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 1: Ed Rausch of the Cincinnati Reds. I believe he so.

573
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: On this day, nineteen twenty. He decided that the game

574
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 1: had gone on too long, and the Reds were facing

575
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: the Giants, and there was an argument that broke out,

576
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: and Rausch, who was in the outfield, got tired of

577
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: waiting around for everything to blow over, and he decided

578
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 1: to lay down on the outfield grass and dagon Nap

579
00:33:54,320 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: been there, brother, Yeah, that's called little league sleeping, Eddie Roosh,

580
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: that's called t ball. You could do that if you're eight.

581
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 1: I'll never forget my dad running out there and the

582
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: kids laying out. You gotta get up, buddy, we gotta

583
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: you can't lay out the ball. Come on, budd, you

584
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: gotta get up. The umpire got upset that he was

585
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: out there sleeping, and the umpire threw him out. Sleepy

586
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 1: Eddie Roush lived to be ninety five years old, but

587
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: he had a teammate name Heinie grow I thought that's

588
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: a Kardashian. Heine grow sprinted out to the outfield to

589
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: wake him up, but the head umpire had already seen

590
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: Raush's napping and decided to throw him out of the game.

591
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 1: I believe the only baseball player in history to ever

592
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: be thrown out of a game for napping. Wasn't there

593
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:59,280
Speaker 1: a player named nap Is that? Yeah? Yeah, old timer,

594
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: that's the guy that's supposed to be sleeping on you.

595
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: Don't you think that that's how he got his name?

596
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: Ellie napped. It's probably Napoleon, you're correct, Yeah, but nap

597
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: All right, take a break, last call for phone calls.

Speaker 1: He was a quarterback in college at I think Florida

610
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,399
Speaker 1: A and M, and they made him a defensive back.

611
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: He ended up with sixty five career interceptions, tied for

612
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 1: fifth all time among the old time top defensive backs

613
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 1: in interceptions, only two are not in the Hall of Fame,

614
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: Ken Riley and Charles Woodson. Woodson becomes eligible this coming

615
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 1: year and he'll go into the Hall of Fame. But

616
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: maybe Ken Riley getting a little bit of notoriety, unfortunately posthumously,

617
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 1: but maybe his family would get the honor of him

618
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: being in the Pro Football Hall of Fame one day. Yeah,

619
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: I have one more. This day in sports history, specifically

620
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: for you, Dan Okay. Nineteen sixty five was the MLB

621
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 1: Draft on this state nineteen sixty five LB Draft. With

622
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: a thirty six pick in the draft, the Cincinnati Reds

623
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,919
Speaker 1: selected one of the most beloved, if not the most

624
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: beloved Red of all time, Johnny Bench, Johnny Bench out

625
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: of Darko High School in Darko, Oklahoma. You know, we

626
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 1: have this discussion of different cities. It's fair to say

627
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:54,240
Speaker 1: Bench's top three all time beloved Cincinnati athletes. Right, Probably

628
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: there's others. Sometimes there's better and worse, but beloved, you know,

629
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: play the whole career. That yeah, who's in that conversation?

630
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 1: Addie Wise. Oscar Robertson played at the University of Cincinnati

631
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 1: and then played for the Cincinnati Royals. Um Kenny Anderson

632
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 1: doesn't get enough credit, but he was out of august Stana,

633
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: a Division three school, and ended up starting for the

634
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 1: Bengals and became a borderline Hall of Famer. M Johnny Bench.

635
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 1: You know these stories now coming out about a guy

636
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: corked Pete Rose's bats now when he was with the Expos,

637
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 1: and you know, those rumors had been alongside Pete for

638
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: a long time. The fact that one of his best friends,

639
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: Tommy Gioso, was a guy who traffic steroids was also

640
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,720
Speaker 1: another part of that with Pete Rose. Nothing ever proven,

641
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 1: but these are stories that sort of accompanied Pete Rose

642
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: with corked bats. Let me see Bob and Florida joins

643
00:37:55,719 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: us Hi Bob, Hi, thanks for taking my call. I

644
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 1: have a best and the worst of the week, and

645
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: I have a fun fact to go with the best

646
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: of the week if there's enough time to get to it.

647
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: My best of the week was watching the Will Toad

648
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,280
Speaker 1: one hundred documentary that was on ESPN over the weekend.

649
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: And my worst of the week is the passing of

650
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 1: three people that are near and dear to me. One

651
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: is Johnny Majors, another one is Roche Caldwell, and the

652
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 1: third is the mother of my high school classmate at

653
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 1: the age of ninety six. And the fun fact for

654
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: Dan and the Danetes is that I'm old enough to

655
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 1: say that I remember seeing Will play at the Fort

656
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 1: Wayne Coliseum, but I don't remember it was a preseason

657
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: game at sixty one or whether it was a regular

658
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: season game in sixty one sixty two, because I was

659
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 1: only twelve years old at the time. All right, Well,

660
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: thank you, Bob, Yeah, che Oldwell. Former wide receiver Johnny Majors.

661
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,320
Speaker 1: Johnny didn't win the Heisman. I think he was runner

662
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 1: up in the Heisman race. Tennessee volunteer, I think he

663
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: was runner und Yeah, I saw a Wilt playing person

664
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 1: one time and that was, you know, with the Lakers.

665
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: I believe seventy one seventy two was when I got

666
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: an opportunity to see him, Mike in California. Hi, Mike,

667
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 1: would you have for me? Dan? That's how are you Vietnam? Vet?

668
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 1: Proud of it? Got a great best of the weekend

669
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 1: was rewatching Twin Peaks. I forgot how incredibly ahead of

670
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: its time Twin Peaks was. And number two was probably

671
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: the I had to share this with you guys, the

672
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 1: probably best trivia question I've ever heard, especially baseball. Who

673
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 1: was the last which hit her to win the MVP

674
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: in the American League? You guys might have heard it,

675
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,359
Speaker 1: and it was invited Blue. Yeah, you're all over Hey.

676
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: The caveat to that, damn was Charlie Finley offered him

677
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: money to change his name. The true Yeah, I wouldn't.

678
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 1: I wouldn't doubt that, Thank you, Mike. He had his

679
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: players growing mustaches. You know, Charlie Finley was quite a character.

680
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 1: And I love those Oakland uniforms. Man that was green

681
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 1: and gold, that had white shoes like whoa, because Joe

682
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 1: Namath a few years prior was wearing white shoes as

683
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: the quarterback of the Jets. But then you had white shoes,

684
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: and everybody wanted to have white shoes, and you're playing baseball.

685
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: Not everybody should wear white shoes playing baseball. It feels

686
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: like you got to be fast to have white shoes. Yeah.

687
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,839
Speaker 1: Point back in the day the baseball teams, I think

688
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: the Reds were there too, and the A's they were

689
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: kind of almost like a vest with a shirt and heathing,

690
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: like at a white vest with trim and then the

691
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: green arms coming out of it. The Reds had that,

692
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 1: and Ted Klazuski didn't wear an undershirt. I think he

693
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: Ted Klazuski played for the Reds and Big Clue. Think

694
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: he just wore the vest and he had these huge arms,

695
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: and I just it was, you know, he's a big slugger.

696
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 1: But he they would wear just the vest. It was

697
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 1: cut off. He didn't play games with the sleeves cut off,

698
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: did he. Yeah, if you google Ted Klazuski, this looks

699
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: like a bit man. There's a picture of him taking

700
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: his picture for his car and he's got his sleeves

701
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:28,439
Speaker 1: cut off. Yeah, it's fantastic. Yeah, big clue. They called

702
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 1: him Big Clue. Let's go around the room. What we learned. Todd,

703
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 1: what did you know? You weren't here for a full show.

704
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: You don't get to do it, mclovin. Tod Verducci says

705
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: baseball will have more pitching chains less is all. Oh,

706
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,400
Speaker 1: I know boy, that sounds exciting. More pitching change is

707
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: less hitting, Seaton. Yeah, Verducci got us fired up for baseball.

708
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 1: Huh yeah, Pauli. Ted Klazuski guns out what we learned
