Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour in this Monday. I hope you
Speaker 1: had a great weekend. Shock's going to join us coming up.
Speaker 1: He's going to be wrestling a EW Dynamite match coming
Speaker 1: up on Wednesday, so we'll talk to Shack about that.
Speaker 1: More phone calls, best and worst of the weekend. I
Speaker 1: finally figured it out. Drew Brees is going to retire. Now.
Speaker 1: I know nobody's noticing this, and we hadn't announced his
Speaker 1: retirement yet. We thought maybe last week he'd have the
Speaker 1: week to himself, he could have a press conference and
Speaker 1: then let people fawn all over him in his Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame career, and rightfully so. And his trainer posted
Speaker 1: a workout video of Drew yesterday and he's doing something
Speaker 1: with a blocking sled or some kind of contraption where
Speaker 1: he's pushing it through a parking lot. And then it
Speaker 1: dawned on me, Drew Brees has a full head of hair.
Speaker 1: This is the Jason Witten situation where you go into
Speaker 1: TV with a full head of hair. That's the tip off.
Speaker 1: Drew Brees is truly retiring because he now has a
Speaker 1: full head of hair. I don't know where he got it,
Speaker 1: but he has a full head of hair. He is
Speaker 1: ready for TV. It's like Brian Rlocker, full head of hair.
Speaker 1: I'm ready for TV, ready for my close up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Paul NBC may have chipped in on it, you know,
Speaker 1: restore whatever that is. I have no idea, but you
Speaker 1: see the video. It's a lot of hair too. It's swooping. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: swoop there is Thank you Tod all right, But now
Speaker 1: I know Drew Brees is a true LEA source is
Speaker 1: close to me tell me that Drew is going to
Speaker 1: retire because he has a full head of hair. I
Speaker 1: don't know what else is going to happen with these
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks. Here feels like New Orleans certainly would love
Speaker 1: to have Russell Wilson. I don't think the Dallas cowboy
Speaker 1: Boys would be interested in Russell Wilson. Chicago Bears would
Speaker 1: should certainly be interested in Russell Wilson. And I don't
Speaker 1: know what's happening the Raiders in John Bruden. I've said
Speaker 1: this before. John always loves the quarterback he doesn't have,
Speaker 1: and if he could get Russ all right, could be fun.
Speaker 1: And you know, if you look at Seattle with what
Speaker 1: they're doing. You can't trade him because of that cap hit,
Speaker 1: And then what are you getting in return? And who
Speaker 1: wants to give you that in return? If I'm the
Speaker 1: Bears and I'm that coach and I'm that GM, whatever
Speaker 1: you want, whatever you want, you tell me because I'll
Speaker 1: do it because their jobs are hinging on this season
Speaker 1: coming up in my opinion, And what's the downside. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're gonna be an average team. You're gonna be seven
Speaker 1: and nine, eight and eight, and you move on from
Speaker 1: Mitchell Trubisky, Like that's the team that if I'm if
Speaker 1: I'm you know, the Bears, what are you want? We'll
Speaker 1: give you a couple of players and we'll give you
Speaker 1: three number ones. But if I'm Chicago, I'm calling the
Speaker 1: Texans first. That's who I want. I want to Sean
Speaker 1: at twenty five, not Russ soon to be thirty three.
Speaker 1: But I'll take one or the other. Let's put it
Speaker 1: that way. JJ Watt is adding more intrigue. Now I'm
Speaker 1: starting to get to the point where I'm getting annoyed
Speaker 1: with JJ where he gives out these little hints, a
Speaker 1: little subtle hints where he might be going. JJ Watt
Speaker 1: is updated his Peloton bio and are we breaking this? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no. Field Yates of the Mothership has this.
Speaker 1: I'm not breaking this. Even if I had it, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to break it. JJ Watt is updated as
Speaker 1: Peloton Bio and it now reads Super Bowl fifty six
Speaker 1: green Bay, Cleveland, buff Fellow. This is like a high
Speaker 1: school kid putting three hats in front of him, a
Speaker 1: guy on a Peloton bike putting three code words in
Speaker 1: front of him. Well, PAULI suggested this to JJ Wat, like,
Speaker 1: why don't you have one of those old school press
Speaker 1: conferences where the kids in high school, you know, with
Speaker 1: the bleachers there and your parents are there, the student
Speaker 1: bodies there, and JJ has three hats, He's got the Packers,
Speaker 1: the Browns, and the Buffalo bills. Maybe he listened to you, Paulie.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe he is willing to do this. Usually does. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course he does. But I'm dialed in on JJ
Speaker 1: with his Peloton bio and it now reads green Bay, Cleveland, Buffalo. Yes, mccleman,
Speaker 1: do you guys have friends or Peloton people? Because that
Speaker 1: Peloton bio is everything I hear Peloton orders talk about it.
Speaker 1: It's like the new Twitter. Basically, you have followers on
Speaker 1: Peloton and you have this community. If you race against
Speaker 1: or whatever, it's a huge shoese deal. I haven't done Peloton.
Speaker 1: I do soul cycle, but I know that Peloton is
Speaker 1: a little bit more social engagement there. Where's soul cycle.
Speaker 1: I'm not in a class with anybody. You can do
Speaker 1: it from your home, but Peloton it's you know, there's
Speaker 1: competition when you're you know you're cycling, but I'm not
Speaker 1: involved in that. Yeah, I'm a club. So you don't
Speaker 1: do where you see how you rank class. But you
Speaker 1: used to do that when you did it live right, No,
Speaker 1: you don't do that with soul cycle. There is a flywheel.
Speaker 1: Flywheel was another one where you're if you wanted to
Speaker 1: do it, you could have your name and then what
Speaker 1: your ranking was while you were competing in class. And
Speaker 1: I didn't want to do that. I'm competitive enough. I
Speaker 1: don't want to get on a bicycle and be yelling
Speaker 1: and screaming and just I want to get through the class.
Speaker 1: I sit in the back. I mind my own business.
Speaker 1: Yes time. And how interactive is the peloton? Can they
Speaker 1: actually see you? They're just kind of talking to saying
Speaker 1: generic things of you. You could be sitting on a
Speaker 1: couch eating a bag of chips and you put the
Speaker 1: thing on and it looks like you're riding a buy
Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, keep going, you got this while
Speaker 1: you're having cheese toodles? Do they actually see you working?
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how many people on Peloton or eating
Speaker 1: cheese toodles ton. I mean, I'm just saying probably it's
Speaker 1: pretty expensive to take a claise. I'm curious if they're
Speaker 1: actually seeing you working out though, well, you're he's kind
Speaker 1: of going, you know, halfway out and you're not really
Speaker 1: giving it. I think they see what you're what you're doing.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they actually see you doing it. God,
Speaker 1: I hope not. Yeah. Se Tad sometimes sounds like a
Speaker 1: caveman lawyer. Who is this cellular phone? Which is it
Speaker 1: a little being in there speaking to me? Like like
Speaker 1: he was just teleported in from nine, you know, nineteen fifty, Like,
Speaker 1: what is this a camera? They watching me cheese doodles? No? Yeah,
Speaker 1: First of all, Fritzie had a BlackBerry until about four
Speaker 1: years ago. Just for in perspective. Second about Russell Wilson,
Speaker 1: also a Peloton guy just confirmed, but he would have
Speaker 1: put four names there, not three like Russell Wilson's Peloton
Speaker 1: name is not Go Hawks. That would be telling we're
Speaker 1: looking into Hawk guy. Yeah, anything else to add their Todd,
Speaker 1: I'm good, okay, thank you, all right, thank you, all right,
Speaker 1: So Shack will join us. Coming up Jamie and North Carolina. Hey, Jamie.
Speaker 1: Best and worst of the weekend? I was Jamie from
Speaker 1: Texas five nine one? Where's that ding? Oh? Hey, shout
Speaker 1: out to shout out for Jimmy Lipper. And my best
Speaker 1: is Todd kind of stole it, but Oaklama State beating
Speaker 1: ou finally in Norman and hopefully we can get him
Speaker 1: tonight again. My worst was I performed stand up Welcome
Speaker 1: Mike in Fort Worth, Texas. And now I know how
Speaker 1: Todd fritz Hills. How bad was it? Jamie? I went
Speaker 1: blue pretty early and so just like Fritzie, so there's
Speaker 1: a lot of crickets. Well, keep your head up, keep
Speaker 1: your head up, Jamie, thank you. Not a good time.
Speaker 1: And that when Todd went blue at Carolines, I said
Speaker 1: he's in trouble. You were in drowning. You're feeling a
Speaker 1: lack of oxygen, your cheeks feel flushed and they're just
Speaker 1: there's no escape. You've got to be out there and
Speaker 1: finish your thing. Imagine what the people in the audience
Speaker 1: film The Players Championship Rory McElroy and the PGA Tour's
Speaker 1: very best take on the purist of golf courses TPC
Speaker 1: saw Grass and it'll be March eleventh through the fourteenth
Speaker 1: on Golf and NBC. Every sport has one team that
Speaker 1: is special when you think about it, they get all
Speaker 1: the attention, no matter how good they are. In the NFL,
Speaker 1: it's the Cowboys. Baseball, the Yankees, the NBA Lakers. College basketball,
Speaker 1: it's Duke And ever since coach k won his first
Speaker 1: title that was with Christian Latner and Bobby Hurling, the
Speaker 1: Blue Devils have been a focal point of this sport.
Speaker 1: Duke hasn't missed the tournament since I think nineteen nine five,
Speaker 1: But the Blue Devils are in real trouble. This year.
Speaker 1: They lost to Louisville. I was watching most of that game.
Speaker 1: They fell apart in overtime, and now they're eleven and nine.
Speaker 1: Two more regular season games at Georgia Tech and at
Speaker 1: North Carolina, then the ACC Tournament they'd have to run
Speaker 1: the tournament to get into the tournament, and the March madness.
Speaker 1: Most college basketball fans either love Duke or they love
Speaker 1: rooting against Duke, and there's a chance that neither group
Speaker 1: is going to be too happy when the tournament starts
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks on Selection Sunday. Yeah, McLevin.
Speaker 1: Do the people the committee do they put in Duke
Speaker 1: just for ratings? Is that even? Is it fair to
Speaker 1: say that's a consideration. Well, as I've said many times,
Speaker 1: it is a TV event, and who you're going to
Speaker 1: put in or who you could leave out? It'd be
Speaker 1: a stretch to put in Duke at eleven and nine,
Speaker 1: and if you're not winning your own conference, they have
Speaker 1: to win the ACC tournament if you get in. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it could be like college football where you think yourself,
Speaker 1: if they get in, they could do damage because historically
Speaker 1: Duke does stuff in the tournament and they have almost
Speaker 1: like earned a hall pass, Like if Alabama football had
Speaker 1: two losses, you still may put them in over a
Speaker 1: team with one loss because they're more likely to do
Speaker 1: damage in the tournament. What did you send me with
Speaker 1: a peloton? Here point? This is a list of there's
Speaker 1: tons of different athletes on the peloton. Well I see
Speaker 1: where Roy McElroy is on peloton and then well, yeah
Speaker 1: it's a great workout. But do they see you working
Speaker 1: out or just your profile is available if they want
Speaker 1: to checking, because I don't know. You see the instructor
Speaker 1: and then oh yeah you talk, Yeah you have to
Speaker 1: see her or him. Well, for me, it was usually her,
Speaker 1: Like I need to be motivated in any way possible.
Speaker 1: Cam Newton does it, Jay Cutler, Patrick Mahomes does it. Cutler,
Speaker 1: that's got to be a stay. I can't. Now there's
Speaker 1: a guy with a beer and cheese dooodles. If Cutler
Speaker 1: was there with a cigarette to have a heater? Is
Speaker 1: an astrae? You keep your water bottle that? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I don't do peloton. I don't
Speaker 1: like the competitiveness of it, Like life is already competitive.
Speaker 1: Could I want to go in there and just ride
Speaker 1: my bike, work up a sweat, that's it. Forty five minutes,
Speaker 1: you're done. Yeah, mcle you love competition on everything? You like?
Speaker 1: Make everything I do a competition. I I like it,
Speaker 1: but I hate it because I don't want competition in everything.
Speaker 1: And it brings out the worst in me. My kids
Speaker 1: know it, my wife knows it, I know it. I
Speaker 1: just it's not good. That good when you are competing
Speaker 1: with your little ones on shoots and ladders or candy Land,
Speaker 1: you've got a problem. And I wanted to win in
Speaker 1: candy Land. Yeah. See. Is there a difference between not
Speaker 1: letting them win and competing with them like trying eighty
Speaker 1: percent instea a hundred? No? Like like well, like, like,
Speaker 1: I don't let my son win in anything. He has
Speaker 1: to just beat me. But I'm not like, you know,
Speaker 1: if he does beat me, I'm like, oh, good job.
Speaker 1: Oh I don't acknowledge. Get Let's run it again, like yeah,
Speaker 1: ring him back, bring him back. Yeah, that's let's run
Speaker 1: it again. Absolutely for allowance. Yeah, according to the pelotoners
Speaker 1: who are coming in fast and furious, the video camera
Speaker 1: you have on your bicycle allows you to video chat
Speaker 1: with friends during the ride. Um, the instructor. If you
Speaker 1: said it, you could chat with that instructor video chat
Speaker 1: so they could see you if you allow them to,
Speaker 1: but they can't see it if you don't. Or you
Speaker 1: could disabled the camera alltogether and just have like your
Speaker 1: bio up there and nobody can see you. M hm, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm club. Yeah, this is this is a big thing.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is like the new way to trash
Speaker 1: talk is via peloton. Apparently other athletes trash talk run
Speaker 1: there too. DK Metcalf's a big Yeah, it's about time
Speaker 1: he got in shape. Yeah, give me you seem binding
Speaker 1: up helt out like, No, I love the workout, but
Speaker 1: I remember that when you could go into soul cycle.
Speaker 1: I'd go in and There'll be a couple of classes
Speaker 1: that I would on a Saturday or Sunday, and I'd
Speaker 1: go in there and Mike Greenberg Greenie would be in
Speaker 1: the class with me, and uh, and I wanted to
Speaker 1: take him down, like he would be one class he
Speaker 1: was next to me or one down, and I wanted
Speaker 1: to put on a show. And I have no idea why.
Speaker 1: You know, Greeny's probably fifteen years younger than me. Are
Speaker 1: you already laying down the groundwork? Yeah, And I wanted
Speaker 1: to dust him off. I wanted to leave him in
Speaker 1: my wake. Yes, time did he let tease the upcoming
Speaker 1: class out in the hallway is coming up. We're gonna
Speaker 1: go really No, he'd say, get up on your bike. Yes,
Speaker 1: don't you have to have a conversation in Mike Greenberg
Speaker 1: if you're okay. Now, once you get going and there's
Speaker 1: no small talk, like you gotta go like you and
Speaker 1: the music's loud and you're not you're not conversing with anybody.
Speaker 1: You can't. I give you're getting your bike adjusted. You
Speaker 1: might say hello, but that's about it. Then Mike tannem
Speaker 1: bomb sits down right next to you. It's just strange, weird.
Speaker 1: Dan Orlovsky was there, and then Mena Kimes was there,
Speaker 1: the whole group, and Jayalen Rowe showed up, Michelle Beadles
Speaker 1: showed up, like, yeah, now it was I. I remember
Speaker 1: being in a soul cycle in San Francisco the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: and Peter Schreger, the NFL Network was in there. I
Speaker 1: didn't know it, but you know, because once you go
Speaker 1: in and it's dark, you don't you don't see anybody
Speaker 1: except for the instructor. And then he said that we
Speaker 1: took a soul cycle class together, and I went, no,
Speaker 1: we didn't like that. That. The implication is, or you know,
Speaker 1: the insinuation is, hey, we took a class together. We
Speaker 1: walked in together, we were in the class. I didn't
Speaker 1: even know he was there, and Troy Aikman was in
Speaker 1: there as well, so you never you never know. And
Speaker 1: in the y work, it's the chance you might see
Speaker 1: somebody famous in in you know Los Angeles. When we
Speaker 1: went out there, we could see somebody famous in there.
Speaker 1: But you just go and nobody looks good after a
Speaker 1: you know, peloton or soul cycle, it's a mess. Yes,
Speaker 1: should we get one for the studio and I'll put
Speaker 1: our names in and use it from time to time?
Speaker 1: Or we think it would sit there to use that?
Speaker 1: Would we just hang our coats on it like most people? Well,
Speaker 1: Todd's not going to use it. Mclovin probably not, not yet.
Speaker 1: Other ways to work out Seaton probably not. Nope, you
Speaker 1: probably not. Big German, No Dylan, no French Kid, no,
Speaker 1: Marvin No, it would stay in great condition then Ario, No,
Speaker 1: it would be me. That'd be it. Then I have
Speaker 1: no need to come in here to do peloton, just
Speaker 1: to have my profile up there. It's like a it
Speaker 1: feels like it's a dating app. Does it? Does it
Speaker 1: feel a little tenderish? Okay, Hey, this is my profile. Hey,
Speaker 1: how fast do you go? Bring your bell? If you like? Hey? Hey,
Speaker 1: slow down. Yeah, hey, slow down like tough as in
Speaker 1: Spanish red wine. Oh what does that have to be?
Speaker 1: Changing your bike? I wanted to put baseball cards in
Speaker 1: my spokes though. That was that was what made me different. Yes,
Speaker 1: the four of us are still traumatized from the one
Speaker 1: time you made us do it in Houston. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was not fun. That was a tough class, but it
Speaker 1: was good. And get your heart rate going, man, that's
Speaker 1: what you want. That's never go to a workout class
Speaker 1: when you have cameras filming, because that makes the instructor
Speaker 1: go ten times harder. Like, this is not what I
Speaker 1: need in my life. We'll take a break James and Milwaukee.
Speaker 1: Then we'll make way for Shaquille O'Neal. Hey James, good morning.
Speaker 1: What's on your mind today? Morning? Dan, Morning, Jane. Out
Speaker 1: to mclobin. You doing bud um something about the last
Speaker 1: two weeks. I was out in Las Vegas this past
Speaker 1: weekend and I we don't have a been an Oltburger
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee and dust and worse than the weekend has
Speaker 1: got to go to Hell's Kitchen, which was fantastic. Woke
Speaker 1: up at three thirty in the morning, decided to go
Speaker 1: to an Oltburger, and just like Seaton said, totally overrated,
Speaker 1: totally outrated. Got better burgers in Milwaukee than that. Thank you, James.
Speaker 1: We don't we don't want to go down this road today.
Speaker 1: I like it an Oltburger. Now do I think there
Speaker 1: is How many places have you gone to where somebody says,
Speaker 1: are you gotta go here? It's somebody's local or their favorite,
Speaker 1: and then you go. It never lives up to what
Speaker 1: you think it's going to be. That happens all the time. Oh,
Speaker 1: you gotta go to my restaurant. Oh, my pub is
Speaker 1: the Bay and then you go. All right, now, I'll

Speaker 1: Huschmansatta and Plexico Birds on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts
Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcast from. How long ago
Speaker 1: was it that we talked about that Peloton commercial for
Speaker 1: Christmas where the wife gets the peloton from her husband,
Speaker 1: but she looks like she's being held captive. Dan, That
Speaker 1: was December, first week of December twenty nineteen, so a
Speaker 1: year and three months ago, and everyone was critiquing the
Speaker 1: commercial because the husband's sitting there and the wife's battling.
Speaker 1: They get in shape. And then about a week later,
Speaker 1: after the controversy, Ryan Reynolds tired it to be in
Speaker 1: his Gin commercial wheneverything was going south Man, you got
Speaker 1: the actress to be in it. This program brought you
Speaker 1: by Mercedes benz Vans. They go far beyond from their
Speaker 1: customization options cutting edge checked to their five stars sales,
Speaker 1: surface and financial support crew. Mercedes benz Vans build equipped
Speaker 1: an engineered to be ready for anything, to go the
Speaker 1: extra mile, taking the all important first step into an
Speaker 1: authorized dealership. Today Jamie and North Carolina on the program, Jamie, welcome,
Speaker 1: thank you, thanks guys. I've just best like Sweden only love.
Speaker 1: It's gotta be the Hornets lament of the ball. I'm
Speaker 1: just glad they're relevant again. And as far as like
Speaker 1: on the bandwagon, I've been there since eighty eight, off
Speaker 1: of it when it dissapped in two thousand and two,
Speaker 1: back on in two fourteen. So let's go Hornets, Let's
Speaker 1: get Yeah. You know, I just wonder if you said
Speaker 1: to the Golden State Warriors, Hey, do you want LaMelo
Speaker 1: Ball or do you still want James Wiseman. And Wiseman's
Speaker 1: got good numbers, but it's just he's a different kind
Speaker 1: of player. LaMelo Ball controls the tempo, he can get
Speaker 1: to the hoop, he's shooting better than people thought, and
Speaker 1: he does pass the ball. And he's leading all rookies
Speaker 1: in all those categories, points, rebounds, and assists. That's a
Speaker 1: pretty good list there. Take out Michael Carter Williams. That's
Speaker 1: a pretty good list there. Where got Wilt and Oscar
Speaker 1: robertson on that list. Even Alvin Adams Alvin came out
Speaker 1: of Oklahoma played for the Phoenix Suns. Great passing big man.
Speaker 1: Walt Bellamy's on there as well, So I got a
Speaker 1: pretty good list. Tomorrow is the anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain
Speaker 1: scoring one hundred points that game in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Mmmm
Speaker 1: and no video whatsoever? Mmmmmmmmmm. Yes, that's like one of
Speaker 1: the great things. And was he a warrior or a sixer?
Speaker 1: He was a I think he might have been a sixer.
Speaker 1: Was he a warrior, It would have been a warrior.
Speaker 1: I think that was early sixties. That's did a great
Speaker 1: moment in Philadelphia sports. You can't take it away from us,
Speaker 1: but we don't have any video of it. All you
Speaker 1: do is having holding up the one hundred points sign
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Wars. Yeah, scored a hundy. Do you think they
Speaker 1: could have doubled teamed him at some point, like around
Speaker 1: sixty seventy? They probably did, But I mean he was
Speaker 1: just so big an athletic back then. And you know
Speaker 1: most of your big guys were not. Um you know,
Speaker 1: if you were tall then you know you could play.
Speaker 1: But Wilt was tall and athletic. Yeah. P four of
Speaker 1: his teammates scored in double figures that day when he
Speaker 1: had a high. Didn't Richie Garren have like thirty eight
Speaker 1: or something like that? That sound right? Uh? I know?
Speaker 1: Guy Rodgers had like twenty assists with Al Addles on
Speaker 1: that team. Al Addoles I think was on that team.
Speaker 1: Let's see guy Rodgers al Addles. Yep, did Richie Garren
Speaker 1: have like a big game seventeen? That's pretty good. Why
Speaker 1: do I know that name is? Yeah? Uh? He coached
Speaker 1: I think he coached the Saint Louis Hawks. But he
Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer I think. And who was? Uh?
Speaker 1: Who are the big men for the Knicks. I don't
Speaker 1: want to name him. It's too soon. Actually, I can't
Speaker 1: read it. A wilto is twenty eight for thirty two
Speaker 1: from the free throw line. That's why he scored one hundred.
Speaker 1: That's the amazing party that he he shot thirty two,
Speaker 1: but he made twenty eight of those thirty two. Kevin
Speaker 1: in Utah, Oh, Kevin is back? Hi, Kevin? Hey, how's
Speaker 1: it going on? Great? Sure? Got a best and worst
Speaker 1: a weekend for you. At first, I want to thank
Speaker 1: you for the merchandise sale. I picked up a couple
Speaker 1: of shirts and a hat. Oh cool, Thank you for that.
Speaker 1: But worst of the weekend, obviously my Utah Jelos go
Speaker 1: down and lose to Miami. That was a tough one.
Speaker 1: About his appetizing of a game, as Utah barbecue is
Speaker 1: okay and best of the weekend. My father celebrating his
Speaker 1: seventy fifth birthday. All right, well, happy birthday there. Awesome,
Speaker 1: Thanks than thanks for the phone call. By the way,
Speaker 1: the Houston Rockets got blown out last night one thirty
Speaker 1: three to eighty four. That's hard to do. It's hard
Speaker 1: to get blown out by forty nine, largest losing margin

Speaker 1: In the NBA right now, is there a player if
Speaker 1: you got into the ring with that person. You go,
Speaker 1: all right, you got my attention. No, how about the
Speaker 1: history of the NBA, there was a lot of guys
Speaker 1: that was that was real tough, a lot of guys
Speaker 1: that were from mostly mostly the Knicks. Guys they were
Speaker 1: they were, they were the toughest guys Oakley Mason. Uh,
Speaker 1: guys like that. I never played against the exact down
Speaker 1: the mcguns, but he seemed to be really tough. But
Speaker 1: other than that, No, because you know, playing playing against
Speaker 1: the Knicks, they touched you up every time he came
Speaker 1: to Rome, not every now, every time they treated you differently.
Speaker 1: They they played me. They played me hard, which I like,
Speaker 1: I love And No, it's something that you have to
Speaker 1: endure if you want to become great. You hold a
Speaker 1: grudge against anybody with how they play you play You
Speaker 1: never nothing you were able to just walk away? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because it, Uh, it made me made me better. You
Speaker 1: let me know I had to step up. Let me
Speaker 1: know I wasn't that great. Like you know a lot
Speaker 1: of people take flat when I take flat, A lot
Speaker 1: of people right now, Oh, you're too hard on the answers. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just doing what was done to me. I can
Speaker 1: remember when I was averaging thirty thirty five in LA,
Speaker 1: but we'd always get swept and the great can remember
Speaker 1: do what Jabara said, Hey, you don't want the championship yet?
Speaker 1: Did I? Why did I cry that I can play
Speaker 1: on social media? No? I didn't say anything, because can
Speaker 1: remember do? Jabbar had g fourteen classifications to say that.
Speaker 1: I'm remember I have a just seat with the greatest
Speaker 1: NBA play ever. So when he said that, when he
Speaker 1: gave me constructive criticism, I took it and I listened,
Speaker 1: and I brought my game to another level. So these
Speaker 1: guys now they're they're putting pops. You say something about them.
Speaker 1: That's what was Karl Malone tough on you? Well, we
Speaker 1: never got to We never got to, like across match
Speaker 1: up a lot. But every time I guard him, he
Speaker 1: was just taking me outside. But he was very very strong.
Speaker 1: Lane Beer, did you cross pants with Lane Beer? Yeah?
Speaker 1: We got into a sort of a scuffle. They You know,
Speaker 1: hacker shack was documented in two thousand, but you know
Speaker 1: guys you know doing it all the time and would
Speaker 1: just get it grabbed me in file. I mean what
Speaker 1: I called I called him bear towards to towards his end.
Speaker 1: So I'm not going to disrespect my beard because I
Speaker 1: actually see what he did, seeing how he did it,
Speaker 1: and it kind of kind of helped me with my
Speaker 1: game growing up. He was smart. He knew his limitation shack.
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, very smart, very smart and played the
Speaker 1: right way. He played with a lot of passion. I
Speaker 1: was watching me a documentary. He said he used to
Speaker 1: love to go as its fans and other rings because
Speaker 1: I got him going. And you missed Bird right by
Speaker 1: a year. Yes, I missed everybody here. But somebody was
Speaker 1: telling me that Bird was the biggest smack conker in
Speaker 1: the game, and they said, did Scott told me Larry
Speaker 1: Bird told him to move he was gonna do it
Speaker 1: and do it and then and did it. So you
Speaker 1: know I was I wasn't a fan of Larry Bird
Speaker 1: brow because I thought everything he did was lucky. But
Speaker 1: then when I that, like he had a friend's name
Speaker 1: two tracks. I was Magic and Mitch was Bird and
Speaker 1: Mitchian did the same thing. Mitch had the long hair
Speaker 1: and he did everything Bird good. One day he was
Speaker 1: playing the seven Game series and it was time three
Speaker 1: or three and he shot that same over the shot
Speaker 1: over the backboard shot the bird. I was so mad
Speaker 1: but instantly got into a fight. But you know when
Speaker 1: I started, you know, getting over and see the seam
Speaker 1: guys putting the work, I realized that he is one
Speaker 1: of the greatest players ever and it's not lucky. It's
Speaker 1: all skilled. And you wanted to be magic. Yes, I did,
Speaker 1: and that's why, you know, for a big guy, my
Speaker 1: handles were pretty good. By saying I had great handles, right,
Speaker 1: so I used to magic, you know, the passing, the
Speaker 1: local as you know, bringing the ball on court. Making
Speaker 1: a great player. Yes, I was mentioned. Well I saw
Speaker 1: where Cedric Maxwell and Rick Carlisle they've likened Luca don
Speaker 1: Chick to Larry Bird. I could. I could see that
Speaker 1: it's kind of unfair at that age to do it.
Speaker 1: Though to him shock, I mean, it is unfair, but
Speaker 1: you know, he listen. I could tell him he wants
Speaker 1: to be great, He will be great. He has a
Speaker 1: lot to live up to. I remember my second year
Speaker 1: when they named me to the NBA Top fifty. People
Speaker 1: were going crazy, Oh he only been in two years
Speaker 1: and how he wanted the top fifty players. But I knew.
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, all you know all the time,
Speaker 1: don't thing. I'm one of the fifty year old plays.
Speaker 1: Watched this, so I know Luca and listen, lucas bit
Speaker 1: of pros than sixteen, so you know he's already going
Speaker 1: up against the best. And then two to three years
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna be paid out. You know. I saw I
Speaker 1: saw a post one day. I don't want to get
Speaker 1: the ages wrong, but it was like Lebron thirty six,
Speaker 1: round thirty four, Curry thirty two, and then they at
Speaker 1: the bottom and said they enjoy the kind of scared.
Speaker 1: I was like, man, these guys. I never knew these
Speaker 1: guys were in their thirties. But you know, four or
Speaker 1: five years from now, we don't started looking at the
Speaker 1: you know, the Donovan Mitchell, you know the Zach Lamaine.
Speaker 1: You know it's gonna be a new breed, you know, takeover.
Speaker 1: Do you think we'll have anybody ever surpassed Kobe's eighty one?
Speaker 1: Tomorrow's the anniversary of Will to one hundred? Do you
Speaker 1: think we have somebody get to eighty? If anybody could
Speaker 1: do it, I think it could be James Kyrie, k
Speaker 1: d Steph, Devin Booker. Those only names that come to mind.
Speaker 1: Right now that could probably passed that. Yeah, eighty one
Speaker 1: is a that's a big number. There is a big number.
Speaker 1: I always wondered though, like what do you because Wilt
Speaker 1: did it and he was the biggest guy back then
Speaker 1: and they just fed him the ball, But do you
Speaker 1: think you could have gone for a hundred. I would
Speaker 1: have to be shooting seventy percent from the free ball
Speaker 1: deck because Will was twenty eight to thirty two in
Speaker 1: that game from the line when he had a hundred.
Speaker 1: I would have to have them. I would have to
Speaker 1: have a great neck. I would have to have a
Speaker 1: lot of three seconds calls not called. I would have
Speaker 1: to have a lot of easy points, and I would
Speaker 1: have to have no double or triple team. It would
Speaker 1: be possible. Yeah, that wouldn't happen. What are you wearing,
Speaker 1: by the way on Wednesday night? Because I'm not going
Speaker 1: to just respect the wrestler. The b Tourna do what
Speaker 1: they do with metal wrestling. Were amusing metal wrestler right
Speaker 1: on the fiver wearing slip packs come to work. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: so you can't wear like the tights like the British Bulldogs,
Speaker 1: Like you can't? I can, but I don't want to
Speaker 1: disrespect the wrestlers. I have a lot of the step
Speaker 1: from the wrestlers. They are tremendous efforts. I don't want
Speaker 1: to take this shot. I don't want people to think
Speaker 1: I'm mocking this sport. So this is a fight. I'm
Speaker 1: coming to his world in my fight clothes. What's the
Speaker 1: coolest thing in the room there with you? Uh? Let
Speaker 1: me see that all my trophies up there, so yep,
Speaker 1: it looks pretty good. And when my father passed away
Speaker 1: in the military drill side, indust's flag they folded it,
Speaker 1: so I always keep that with me. My MVP. I
Speaker 1: think that's my Rookie of the Year of trophy right there.
Speaker 1: And oh so you should have another MVP in their shack. Oh,
Speaker 1: I know that it's in Steve Nash's house. Steve, did
Speaker 1: you ever say anything to him about that MVP? No,
Speaker 1: I'll do it for you. I have a question of you, okay,
Speaker 1: Most valuable player? Right, yeah, it's supposed to be singlar right.
Speaker 1: So other people say whichever team has the best best records,
Speaker 1: not most lable teams. Most lable player. I always thought
Speaker 1: must lable player was a guy with the most valuable sets,
Speaker 1: not about the guy who was the best record, because
Speaker 1: I think I lost the Steave twas because their record
Speaker 1: was man. But Jack, if you said player of the Year,
Speaker 1: then that would be different than most valuable I think,
Speaker 1: and then you might you might have people vote differently
Speaker 1: if it was for Player of the Year not most
Speaker 1: valuable Player. So most viable players should be rewarded for
Speaker 1: the guy that has the best sets on the team
Speaker 1: as the best record. But you know, the media loves
Speaker 1: a great story. Shock. That's why when you know the
Speaker 1: Greek Freak is not going to win the MVP this year,
Speaker 1: no matter how great he is, they want a good story,
Speaker 1: like Lebron is a good story. It's been like seven years,
Speaker 1: James Harden now going to a new team, maybe MVP.
Speaker 1: What about Steph Curry? Well, I know that was my
Speaker 1: pick to start the year, but I thought if Clay
Speaker 1: Thompson stayed healthy, they were going to compete for a championship.
Speaker 1: But I never understood what how they vote us for
Speaker 1: the most player? And I think Steph Curry. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you agree with me. I think Steph Curry
Speaker 1: is the most influential basketball player of the last thirty
Speaker 1: years because he's given everybody hope that they could play
Speaker 1: in the NBA. I'm watching these little kids now, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, bro, I've never seen a little kid. Yes,
Speaker 1: I would agree because I can't be like you and
Speaker 1: I can't be Ali Mike. But there's a chance I
Speaker 1: might be able to shoot like Steph. Yes, they give
Speaker 1: us hope. They give us hope. Good luck on Wednesday Night.
Speaker 1: It's always great to talk to you. I don't I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go out on limb and I think you're gonna
Speaker 1: win on Wednesday Night. I know I'm a little win
Speaker 1: Oh you are? You know you're gonna win? Yes, this
Speaker 1: is a fake Michael Les. Whatever it takes for me
Speaker 1: to win. But I gotta do put out a little
Speaker 1: you know, dirty moves. Yeah yeah, hell, yes, I don't
Speaker 1: blame you. Thank you. Set great to talk to you.
Speaker 1: What are we doing a movie again? We talk about? Uh? Well, Sam?
Speaker 1: And did that basketball one? Which one? He shot one?
Speaker 1: It's not done yet. Oh he didn't ask you about
Speaker 1: being in that. No. The last movie I did with
Speaker 1: him was the h Hughbie Halloween. Yeah yeah, yeah, me too.
Speaker 1: Mission brother. I'm thinking Happy Gilmore too. Hey, whatever, whatever,

Speaker 1: the ring the All Elite Wrestling, taking on former TNT
Speaker 1: champ Cody Rhodes in a mixed tag team match on

Speaker 1: us live on the Peacock app. Football World lost IRV Cross.
Speaker 1: He died Sunday. He was eighty one years of age.
Speaker 1: He played cornerback in the league for nine years. He
Speaker 1: really made a name for himself on the CBS pregame
Speaker 1: show with Brent Musburger. It was called NFL Today, and
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy five he was part of what became
Speaker 1: a four person team on the NFL Today game show.
Speaker 1: You had Jimmy the Greek, you had Brent Musburger, and
Speaker 1: you had Phillis George first black broadcaster to co host
Speaker 1: a football show, a studio show every Sunday afternoon for
Speaker 1: fifteen years, and passed away at the age of eighty one.
Speaker 1: He was a former Pro Bowl defensive back as well.
Speaker 1: But when you go back to nineteen seventy five with
Speaker 1: Brent Mussberger, I mean they created the pregame show, and
Speaker 1: I believe it was only a half hour. I think
Speaker 1: it came on at twelve thirty and Brent would always
Speaker 1: start with your looking live because he wanted to let
Speaker 1: the gamblers know if you're looking at Soldier Field, then
Speaker 1: you knew what the weather was going to be like.
Speaker 1: And you had Phyllis George, who usually did interviews with athletes.
Speaker 1: Jimmy the Greek was your gambler. IRV was kind of
Speaker 1: the calming influence there. You know, he could give the
Speaker 1: perspective as a former player. But passed away at the
Speaker 1: age of eighty one, And then you think about it.
Speaker 1: An NBC had a pregame show with Brian Gumble. I
Speaker 1: mean Bryant Gumble was really really good as a host.
Speaker 1: I mean he's good on real sports, but back then,
Speaker 1: you know he did college basketball. In fact, that was
Speaker 1: on NBC and Bryant Gumble is the host when Magic
Speaker 1: Johnson played Larry Bird in the NCAA Championship game, but
Speaker 1: he also did a pregame show as well. I think
Speaker 1: he handed out the Super Bowl Trophy a couple of times.
Speaker 1: But Bryant was he played at a really high level
Speaker 1: as well. But Brent had a profound impact on me
Speaker 1: because I was graduating from high school and I go,
Speaker 1: I'd like to do that. I don't know how to
Speaker 1: do that. I don't know how to get there because
Speaker 1: I'm in a small town in Ohio, and I thought, well,
Speaker 1: let me try to figure this out off. How do
Speaker 1: you do sports for a living? And back then you
Speaker 1: just had the person who did the week you know,
Speaker 1: the weekday sports. They did three minutes. ESPN wasn't in
Speaker 1: business yet. Now, that didn't start until four years later
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy nine. And that's when I realized that's
Speaker 1: where I wanted to be. And that's when I wrote
Speaker 1: a letter to Bob Lee and Greg Gumbel and said, Hey,
Speaker 1: how do I get there? And would you look at
Speaker 1: my tape that I just had somebody videotape me add
Speaker 1: living sports for you know about seven minutes and send
Speaker 1: it to them, And Bob Lee wrote me a letter back.
Speaker 1: He said, you know you got got some work to do,
Speaker 1: but you know you kind of know what you're doing. Oh,
Speaker 1: let's see this day in sports history, PAULI, do you
Speaker 1: have anything? I got one from the weekend. I was
Speaker 1: holding over it. Five years ago. Today, Steph Curry hit
Speaker 1: that almost half court shot against Oklahoma City as a
Speaker 1: game winner. I always thought that was like the announcement
Speaker 1: that he's the best player in the game at the time.
Speaker 1: That was deep. He pulled up from thirty three. That
Speaker 1: was deep on the left side. Todd, would you learn today,
Speaker 1: Sha access Today's players are putting pops. They can't handle
Speaker 1: the criticism. What did I learn today? You learned that
Speaker 1: even though he's older, the overwhelming majority of our Paul
Speaker 1: want Russell Wilson over Dak Prescott as their QB. Where
