Speaker 2: call them, Reggie White. What about Bucco Bruce Are they
Speaker 2: bringing Bucco Bruce.
Speaker 4: Back orange crush for the Broncos?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah. But the NFL, Uh, they don't stay out
Speaker 2: of the headlines very often.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: Here it is that Tuesday, we're like, eh, you know what,
Speaker 2: might as well take over the headlines for a little while.
Speaker 2: Let's take over the news cycle a little bit. Albert Breer,
Speaker 2: the Monday morning quarterback, will join us coming up next hour.
Speaker 2: He's at the owners meeting. They are voting on the
Speaker 2: Push Push the Brotherly Chef. They'll be voting on some
Speaker 2: other things, but that's the big one. That's the big
Speaker 2: ticket here. And I was wondering about this that we've
Speaker 2: spent way too much time on this. I've given you
Speaker 2: my opinion. Just take the blocker from behind the quarterback
Speaker 2: out of the play and let's see what the Eagles
Speaker 2: can still do with the quarterback sneak. And my guess
Speaker 2: is they will be highly, highly successful because of their
Speaker 2: quarterback and their offensive line. But I started to wonder
Speaker 2: if you're going to have twenty four at least twenty
Speaker 2: four people owners to make this work, and are coaches
Speaker 2: involved in this? And I'm wondering about the coaches involved
Speaker 2: in this because what about the guys who were assistant
Speaker 2: coaches with the Philadelphia Eagles who have gone on to
Speaker 2: be head coaches. Are they going to vote against this?
Speaker 2: I wonder if they will? Is there loyalty there that
Speaker 2: is Kellen Moore now with the Saints going to vote
Speaker 2: against the tush push Shane Steichen. I mean, you got
Speaker 2: four or five of these guys who are now head
Speaker 2: coaches he used to be with the Eagles, and I
Speaker 2: wonder if they would vote against that, or ownership would
Speaker 2: vote against that. But we'll talk to Albert Breer. Adam
Speaker 2: Lefko has been doing double duty NBA on TNT and
Speaker 2: also NCAA host Jeff Passing from the Mothership will stop by.
Speaker 2: It was a big night for torpedo bats. Ellie Delacruz
Speaker 2: of the Reds hadn't used it, and then he used it,
Speaker 2: and then he used up the opposition. The Reds beat
Speaker 2: the Rangers fourteen to three. Dela Cruz had seven RBIs.
Speaker 2: He had a single double and two home runs with
Speaker 2: the torpedo bat for the first time. I don't know,
Speaker 2: how do you get that batw is it FedEx to you?
Speaker 6: Where?
Speaker 2: Where are these bats right now? The Yankees, A couple
Speaker 2: of guys have them. They've been around for a while.
Speaker 2: It just feels like nobody really paid any attention to them,
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, everybody's paying attention to them.
Speaker 2: But we'll talk to Jeff passing from the Mothership. He'll
Speaker 2: join us coming up. Yes, Todd, did someone or.
Speaker 7: Should have someone got a copyright for the torpedo bats?
Speaker 8: I know it's just a matter of welding it a
Speaker 8: certain way, but if someone ever came up with that.
Speaker 7: First and it's legal, that could be worth a few
Speaker 7: bucks if you got the rights to them.
Speaker 2: All right, thank you, Todd.
Speaker 8: I had another question if you don't if you guys
Speaker 8: don't mind, what's thetentially an owner meeting and owners meetings everywhere?
Speaker 8: I'm looking at stories that we're first to what as
Speaker 8: a meeting. But unless they're having one long meeting in
Speaker 8: Florida for three or four days, they must take breaks
Speaker 8: to go to sleep and have lunch, and stuff. So
Speaker 8: it's actually several meetings. Wouldn't it be plural? Why is
Speaker 8: it called the owner's meeting? It's bothering me for someone.
Speaker 2: You know, there's certain things that you answer yourself when
Speaker 2: you ask the question.
Speaker 7: This is one of those times.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, Paul.
Speaker 9: The Stanley Cup Final is a singular event made up
Speaker 9: of multiple games, possibly seven. The owners meeting is a
Speaker 9: singular event made up of multiple meetings.
Speaker 8: They're a meeting with one another, but they're actually having
Speaker 8: meetings because it doesn't just go on endlessly. They have
Speaker 8: to meet and then they meet again. Once you meet
Speaker 8: a second time.
Speaker 2: But they have the NBA Finals. Yes, yeah, it's the
Speaker 2: Stanley Cup Final, the NBA Finals.
Speaker 10: Yes, I'm looking at a headline from Sports Illustrated right
Speaker 10: now from seventeen hours ago, what to expect this week's
Speaker 10: NFL owners meetings. What to expect from this week's NFL
Speaker 10: owners meetings.
Speaker 8: Thankfully someone's got it right, because I saw a series
Speaker 8: of other articles that referred to with as the owner's meeting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, let's not bother the NFL with this.
Speaker 4: I was going to send them.
Speaker 10: Here's yeah, who's sports NFL Owners meetings kickoff in South Florida.
Speaker 7: They'll come to me in a dream, and I'm just
Speaker 7: making it up for.
Speaker 10: Brian Goodacus speaks at NFL Owners Meetings.
Speaker 2: It came to me in a nightmare, Todd, came to
Speaker 2: you in a dream.
Speaker 9: Yes, Paul, it is officially called the Annual League Meeting
Speaker 9: on NFL dot com meeting.
Speaker 7: No s, we've got some bad journalism. Back to or.
Speaker 9: It's an event made up of small little breakouts once again.
Speaker 2: Albert tocics from NFL Owners Meetings. Albert Breer, the Monday
Speaker 2: morning quarterback, will join us. We'll ask him that question.
Speaker 2: That's the first question we'll ask him. You know we'll
Speaker 2: have on Albert Breer, and you know we'll bother him
Speaker 2: during his busy day. Just ask that one question.
Speaker 10: From Football Zebra's scorecard of the twenty twenty five NFL
Speaker 10: Owners Meetings live updates.
Speaker 2: Yes, Todd, but.
Speaker 7: Paul Zebra' that's where I get all my EDIFIL information show.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Tod.
Speaker 10: Right Boston Herald Callahan five Patriots takeaways from the NFL
Speaker 10: Owners Meetings.
Speaker 2: I might go home. Oh no, it was not a
Speaker 2: bad idea. Got it it start again Wednesday? Yeah, if
Speaker 2: I was in your shoes. I would be like you
Speaker 2: forget it. I might mad, I might just come back tomorrow.
Speaker 2: I'll see you guys tomorrow. All this is stupid. Oh god, Todd.
Speaker 8: Now, Albert Bridge just texted me no touch, push questions
Speaker 8: and nothing about Aaron Rodgers. Just wants to get into
Speaker 8: the meeting versus meetings to be so I just want
Speaker 8: to let you know when you're interviewed.
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, Paul Todd.
Speaker 9: It's called the NFL Draft. Multiple people are being drafted,
Speaker 9: Multiple people are drafting people. It's not the NFL drafts
Speaker 9: well like this, but it's.
Speaker 8: One big draft like the Stanley Cup Final. It's an event.
Speaker 8: I don't know if the NFL meetings is an event.
Speaker 2: Can you guys go to a separate room and hashley sound.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of things to talk about today. I
Speaker 2: got torpedo batch. I got the Pelicans in tank mode.
Speaker 2: By the way, we've trademarked it. We are coming up
Speaker 2: with tanking tops. Okay, like the tank top, it's a
Speaker 2: tanking top. The Pelicans are wearing tank tops because now
Speaker 2: you got CJ. McCollum and you got Zion, they're going
Speaker 2: to sit out. They got injuries. They got hurt feelings probably,
Speaker 2: Although if you're Zion, you're making like thirty nine million
Speaker 2: dollars and you're going to sit out seven games the
Speaker 2: final seven, Well, they are meaningless, but they are meaningful
Speaker 2: of what you could get, because if you're tanking with
Speaker 2: your tanking tops, then you get a better chance for
Speaker 2: Cooper flag. Yes, Paul.
Speaker 9: As of right now, the Pelicans are twenty one and
Speaker 9: fifty four. Uh, they have a twelve point five percent
Speaker 9: chance to get the number one overall pick. By losing
Speaker 9: just three more games and Charlotte going the other way,
Speaker 9: they would increase those as to fourteen percent.
Speaker 2: Okay, you're saying there's a chance a better chance with
Speaker 2: your tanking tops, right, Yeah, that would be funny if
Speaker 2: the NFL, No, how the NBA came out with Uh, okay,
Speaker 2: you guys are wearing tanking tops, but it would be
Speaker 2: an official NBA jersey that you have your tanking cup.
Speaker 2: There'd be a large tea on the front of it. Oh,
Speaker 2: you guys got your tanking tops. Hey, we're moving merchandise.
Speaker 2: Who wouldn't want to have a tanking top. Connecticut and
Speaker 2: Texas advanced in the women's Final four it's not the
Speaker 2: final fours. It's the women's final four, Todd. So big
Speaker 2: night for the Torpedo Bats last night, big day for
Speaker 2: the NFL Competition Committee. And let's see we'll play fill
Speaker 2: in the blank a little bit later on.
Speaker 10: See what's the poll question today? We have many options. Well,
Speaker 10: this will surprise you. Todd has sent in quite a few.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I'm a little concerned, Like this is
Speaker 2: a Tuesday Todd, like Friday Fritzy.
Speaker 10: Tuesday Todd is a real problem.
Speaker 2: Yes, is a real problem. He's got three guests, he's
Speaker 2: fired up. Paul sent over one. We could just get
Speaker 2: to real quick your prediction for today.
Speaker 10: Involving the hush push.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's going to be illegal or legal? All right, Marvin,
Speaker 2: I'll start with you illegal, Paul. The NFL is going
Speaker 2: to declare it illegal.
Speaker 7: It's getting banned.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's done.
Speaker 2: I think it's done, or I thought it was done.
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, are you going to
Speaker 2: get that many people to agree on this? How does
Speaker 2: the NFL not make this the Eagles rule? I'd be
Speaker 2: curious what's the language here that What do you put
Speaker 2: in the rule book? Because it will be known as
Speaker 2: the Eagles rule. But can you single out a team?
Speaker 2: Everybody can do this, but can you single out a team?
Speaker 2: And I know that they're trying, They're desperately looking for Hey,
Speaker 2: you get hurt from the toush push?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: Did you no? Did you go on door to door
Speaker 2: trying to find somebody?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 2: And my next a little sore from the tushpush? Yeah, okay, hey,
Speaker 2: all right, all right, let me get your name, your number.
Speaker 2: They're looking for data here, so then they can say
Speaker 2: health wise they have to get rid of it, take
Speaker 2: it out of the game, because then the commissioner can
Speaker 2: be going around and all of a sudden, you know
Speaker 2: he's going to be saying, you know, we're worried about
Speaker 2: the health of the of the players. You know, it's
Speaker 2: players safety. Because under that umbrella, then maybe you could
Speaker 2: take it out of the game. I'm gonna go counter
Speaker 2: and say that it stays. It stays. I know esthetically
Speaker 2: it's not pleasing, but I you know, I'm sorry, I don't.
Speaker 2: I can't take it out of the game just because
Speaker 2: it doesn't look good. And they mastered this, yes, Pauline.
Speaker 9: I do remember watching the Super Bowl though, and when
Speaker 9: Chris Jones of The Chiefs went down. At the time,
Speaker 9: we didn't know how he had lined up kind of
Speaker 9: sideways to block the play. When I saw him on
Speaker 9: the sidelines on Worldwide TV holding his head and neck,
Speaker 9: I was like, that's their opening, Yeah, that's their video.
Speaker 2: Well he put himself in a position to get hurt. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was silly. You're like, you're lined up almost, you know,
Speaker 2: on an angle, and what they did is just blow
Speaker 2: through him. And then he's like, oh my neck, Well
Speaker 2: you exposed yourself. We'll come up with the pole question today.
Speaker 2: First Hour Buddha in San Francisco. Hi Buddha, what's on
Speaker 2: your mind today?
Speaker 11: What a DP Happy Tuesday? Boys, Dan Real Quick Seeden
Speaker 11: said that he lost thirty pounds yesterday on the show,
Speaker 11: and I was watching at the time and I was like,
Speaker 11: you know what, Seedon looks great man. Keep it up, brother,
Speaker 11: good job, And I wanted I just yesterday. Also, Fritzy
Speaker 11: got me lit up Dan when he was complaining about
Speaker 11: the torpedo bats. It reminded me of like when he
Speaker 11: was complaining about the and yelling at the little bagel
Speaker 11: girl that didn't have his favorite bagel, which was ridiculous,
Speaker 11: just like the torpedo thing. I mean, come on, Fritzy,
Speaker 11: really really and Dan, I'm on my way up to
Speaker 11: to get to get some fresh eat. I just wanted
Speaker 11: to call in on my drive. You guys have a
Speaker 11: great day boys.
Speaker 2: All right? Boot it safe travels. Yeah, you did come
Speaker 2: off as a little whiny yesterday time. I didn't mean
Speaker 2: too Yeah.
Speaker 10: Yeah, man headed to Tahoe though. How great does that sounds?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 10: That sounds yeah perfect.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, in July, it's a perfect time to
Speaker 2: go to Tahoe. I'd like to go out to Tahoe,
Speaker 2: maybe go out to the golf event American Century.
Speaker 10: I went out there snowboarding once years ago, and there's
Speaker 10: this mountain there called Heavenly and you're you go up,
Speaker 10: you could see like the whole lake, you see this
Speaker 10: whole mountain range.
Speaker 2: It's incredible.
Speaker 10: And as you're riding down, they have signs all over
Speaker 10: the place. You'll cross from California to Nevada and then
Speaker 10: back to California and back to Nevada.
Speaker 2: And every time you do it they say welcome to.
Speaker 2: You're now leaving, welcome to. It's pretty fun. All right,

Speaker 2: wacky Tiger Woods. He tweeted out, I can't believe I'm
Speaker 2: saying this, but a few weeks after rupturing my left
Speaker 2: achilles and sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber, plus the explosive lips,
Speaker 2: my doctors and trainers have me ready to play the
Speaker 2: Masters next week. Can't wait, see you all on the course.
Speaker 2: And then five minutes later, April Fools. My achilles is
Speaker 2: still a mess, and it's one of those that you
Speaker 2: want to believe it. You'd love for Tiger to be
Speaker 2: able to play, but the reality of that. I wonder
Speaker 2: how he came up with that. Do you think maybe
Speaker 2: his new girlfriend said, hey, hey, ty ty, how about
Speaker 2: we do in April? Hey ty ty, how about we
Speaker 2: do an April Fool's joke? Okay, yeah, you're gonna play
Speaker 2: in the Masters. Okay, yeah, we'll tweet it out like
Speaker 2: you're hyperbaric chain. It'll be so funny, and then you
Speaker 2: then you like come back and say, hey, I was
Speaker 2: just kidding.
Speaker 4: Yes, Marmon, who's the more fun personal social media now,
Speaker 4: Tiger Woods or Bill Belichick?
Speaker 2: Oh Belichick, but I see I was. I didn't want
Speaker 2: to read this April fool's joke because I wanted to
Speaker 2: give him his privacy, him and his new girlfriend their privacy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's still amazing you you tweet out pictures of you
Speaker 2: two and then say, please respect our privacy. I did
Speaker 2: respect your privacy until you invaded my privacy showing me
Speaker 2: that you're in love.
Speaker 9: Yes, if you're grading this April Fool's joke, f now, yeah, no,
Speaker 9: nobody should believe that Tiger Woods could come back in
Speaker 9: a matter of weeks from an achilles. Yeah, so you
Speaker 9: shouldn't be fooled by it. But it's early in the
Speaker 9: morning and it's one of those things you want to
Speaker 9: be true. So you're cloudy.
Speaker 3: Hmm.
Speaker 2: Oh no, i'd have to be drunk to go. Well,
Speaker 2: I'm buying tickets to the Masters, Yes, Todd, but doesn't
Speaker 2: it have.
Speaker 7: To be really funny and or clever.
Speaker 8: Is anyone that read that, unless I guess you're a
Speaker 8: super golf Tiger fank, Like, oh my god, I gotta
Speaker 8: tell everybody Tiger's gonna be able to play.
Speaker 7: How is that possible? If that's not your reaction, then
Speaker 7: it's lame.
Speaker 2: I'm sure that there was that kind of reaction for people. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: that's bizarre. They might not think that Tiger would do
Speaker 2: an April Fool's joke. Me pretty serious guy, But anything
Speaker 2: other than wow.
Speaker 8: He's really gonna play. He's like a medical marvel and
Speaker 8: then you move on with your life. I can't imagine
Speaker 8: like April fools jokes is supposed to be like, it
Speaker 8: gets all around the country and world and the Today
Speaker 8: Show is talking about it becomes like a big crazy thing.
Speaker 8: So once I was coming out of retirement or this
Speaker 8: one took steroids?
Speaker 2: What it was within five minutes that he said it
Speaker 2: was a joke, Todd.
Speaker 7: Should have been no minutes. That shouldn't have been done
Speaker 7: in the first place.
Speaker 2: Who are you today?
Speaker 8: I'm just saying that was very weak, I know, and
Speaker 8: I can't imagine anybody being that crazy.
Speaker 2: We've been on the air for twenty six minutes, but
Speaker 2: this goes back about an hour prior to starting this. Yeah. See, well,
Speaker 2: I do find it odd that in the year twenty
Speaker 2: twenty five people are still doing the April Fool's jokes.
Speaker 2: People above the age of ten. No, but social media
Speaker 2: brought it back. And that's all this is. It's a
Speaker 2: big audience and you can dupe some people. Social media
Speaker 2: is essentially one long April Fool's joke. It's not contained
Speaker 2: to one day. It's every day of the year. It's
Speaker 2: one long April Fool's joke. None of it is real.
Speaker 10: Maybe Todd's persona today is one big April Fools joke.
Speaker 8: Oh okay, putting something over on all of you.
Speaker 2: The little clever thing you've done in a while's gonna
Speaker 2: play everyone. I got a long day. I got a
Speaker 2: long day. That's what it is.
Speaker 10: It's all nothing.
Speaker 2: But like there was probably some golf editor somewhere or
Speaker 2: like reporter got to call it digit Tigers Sweet.
Speaker 10: Okay, yeah, I'll look into it.
Speaker 2: Is it true? Yeah, somebody's walked, you know, seeing rich
Speaker 2: Lerner of the Golf Channel. Hey, hey see Tiger's coming back.
Speaker 10: Yeah, okay, wow, he healed faster than okay, yeah, yeah, Marvin.
Speaker 4: And somebody fell for the banana and the tailpipe because
Speaker 4: I'm sure somebody teased it. Oh, coming up, You'll never
Speaker 4: guess who's back from Achilles right here, Get up.
Speaker 7: I wasn't gonna say no.
Speaker 2: Names, no, no, they wouldn't be due by that. I
Speaker 2: know they wouldn't let me see Andrew and Washington. Hi Andrew,
Speaker 2: welcome back, Good.
Speaker 13: Morning, Dan Dnnez. Thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 13: You said yesterday, who wouldn't want to see a show
Speaker 13: taping like I would love to see the behind the
Speaker 13: scenes in the last hour with Fritzy, maybe a little
Speaker 13: meeting and meetings between him and Paul off camera. I
Speaker 13: think that'd be pretty interesting to watch. But I called
Speaker 13: in because the Lakers did beat the Rockets last night.
Speaker 13: They were the second seat. It was a back and
Speaker 13: forth game move. More importantly for the Lakers, Gabe Vinton
Speaker 13: and Dorian Finney Smith have found their shot, have found
Speaker 13: their place on the court.
Speaker 5: They can get their shots.
Speaker 13: Some had twenty points for Finny Smith.
Speaker 2: That's yuh got a bad connection, Andrew got a bad connection. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it doesn't mean they've found their place on the floor.
Speaker 2: They did last night. Where have they been in the
Speaker 2: other games? They they couldn't find their spons Thank you
Speaker 2: for the phone call. Andrew Doug in North Carolina. Good morning, Doug.
Speaker 2: What's on your mind?
Speaker 5: Well, Dan, I wanted to get in on these torpedo
Speaker 5: bats and bring up something that no one has talked
Speaker 5: about so far. The home run king in baseball is
Speaker 5: the guy who was juiced up. The hitting king was
Speaker 5: the guy who gambled on the game. The only sacred
Speaker 5: numbers we have left in baseball are fifty six for
Speaker 5: Demaggio and four hundred for Williams. My question to you is,
Speaker 5: if somebody hits in fifty seven straight games using one
Speaker 5: of these bats, is there an asterisk or you can
Speaker 5: acknowledge it as a real record.
Speaker 2: It's a real record. Baseball's allowed these bats. It's already
Speaker 2: been approved, so yeah, it's legitimate. Go back to when
Speaker 2: Babe Ruth was playing. He had a forty four inch
Speaker 2: bat a thirty six ounce bat, So forty four inches,
Speaker 2: thirty six ounce bat. But back then power was king.
Speaker 2: Guys weren't throwing as hard as they are now nowhere
Speaker 2: near that. And go back to two thousand and eight,
Speaker 2: the average fastball in two thousand and eight was ninety
Speaker 2: one miles an hour. It's now ninety four point two
Speaker 2: miles per hour. That trend is going to continue. But
Speaker 2: you have this futuristic tapered bat and the Yankee hitters
Speaker 2: are taking advantage of it. You're able to catch up
Speaker 2: to modern velocity here, increase your swing speed. And also
Speaker 2: you have a sweet spot. Now, if you've ever seen golfers,
Speaker 2: professional golfers in their clubs they play with blades, there's
Speaker 2: a sweet spot that feels like it's about the size
Speaker 2: of a dime, maybe a quarter, Like you must hit
Speaker 2: it there. You hit it there and you'll get the
Speaker 2: results that you want. We can't play those clubs, but
Speaker 2: we get clubs that are larger, larger face, and far
Speaker 2: more forgiving. Certainly with a driver. This feels like there
Speaker 2: is a sweet spot and if you hit that sweet spot,
Speaker 2: you're going to get the results that you want. That's
Speaker 2: the amazing part of this and growing a hundred. All right,
Speaker 2: I can swing a little faster. I don't know if
Speaker 2: they show this. I know they show exit velocity, I
Speaker 2: don't know if they show swing speed. Have you seen
Speaker 2: graphics before with the batter swing speed. We do this
Speaker 2: with golf min Wu leaves swing speed was one hundred
Speaker 2: and twenty miles an hour, and your top end golfers
Speaker 2: will be in that area. I don't know how fast
Speaker 2: Aaron Judge swings a bat or show heyotanic, but I
Speaker 2: know they have exit velocity. I'm just curious about how
Speaker 2: fast are they swinging that bat?
Speaker 9: Yeah, Pauline, Yeah, I went to MLB dot com and
Speaker 9: they did have a stat last year eleven hitters with
Speaker 9: the fastest bats in MLB average bat speed through the zone.
Speaker 9: And guys like Kyle Schwarber, Ronald Acuna Junior, Aaron Judge,
Speaker 9: the players you would expect to be on there. Okay,
Speaker 9: but they said about the high end is like seventy
Speaker 9: seven miles an hour plus.
Speaker 2: Oh all right, yeah, golfers one hundred and twenty miles
Speaker 2: an hour. But once again, if you're throwing a hundred,
Speaker 2: that's why when guys are doing home run derby, you
Speaker 2: know you have to generate all the power because your
Speaker 2: picture is not throwing it that fast. If you've ever
Speaker 2: seen somebody throwing a hundred, and then you get a
Speaker 2: power hitter, like when Randy Johnson and Mark McGuire faced
Speaker 2: one another and that was a hundred and it was
Speaker 2: McGuire and he hit an absolute bomb. Because hitters will say,
Speaker 2: when you hit it perfectly, you don't feel anything, and
Speaker 2: that's because they hit the sweet spot. The bat does everything.
Speaker 2: They just they timed it correctly. But I don't know
Speaker 2: if the torpedo bats are going to be outlawed or
Speaker 2: they're going to be re examined. I don't know if
Speaker 2: there's an outcry from unless there's all the pitchers formed
Speaker 2: a union and they go, we are going on to strike.
Speaker 2: We're not pitching until you get rid of torpedo bats.
Speaker 2: Baseball has to love this. Now, if it wasn't the Yankees,
Speaker 2: would it be as big of a deal. Let's say
Speaker 2: this was the Indians the Guardians, wouldn it be a
Speaker 2: big deal. It'd be like, oh man, the Guardians, they're
Speaker 2: hitting some home runs this year. It wouldn't be oh
Speaker 2: my god, they're cheating the game. But it's the Yankees.
Speaker 2: And that's why I think it came to the forefront
Speaker 2: because more people watching Aaron Judge HiT's three homes he
Speaker 2: not even using the torpedo bat. So we'll talk to
Speaker 2: Jeff passon of the Mothership. About this the bat, I
Speaker 2: think Cody Bellinger was using it last year with the Cubs.
Speaker 2: Nobody brought it up because Cody Bellinger didn't have a
Speaker 2: good year. But it's been around, which is kind of
Speaker 2: strange that all of a sudden. It's kind of like pickleball.
Speaker 2: It's been around for decades and then all of a
Speaker 2: sudden everybody was like, hey, have you played pickleball? Have
Speaker 2: you seen pickleball? I think it's been around since the fifties.
Speaker 2: It's like the pitch clock in baseball. It's been there
Speaker 2: and they just never enforced it.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Paul, like you said earlier the week, there's a
Speaker 9: rule about bats can't be more than two point six
Speaker 9: to one inches in diameter on any part of the bat,
Speaker 9: but it doesn't say one part can't be at full
Speaker 9: max size and the other's thinner. There was a guy
Speaker 9: named Aaron Lainhardt, former Yankees analytics person, who was hired
Speaker 9: by the Marlins a couple of years ago, and he's
Speaker 9: the one who invented this bat.
Speaker 2: He's also an engineer. Yeah, but he's with the Marlins now.
Speaker 2: I don't know the Marlins. Blatant cheater, I think he's
Speaker 2: an MIT guy, but I don't know the Marlins using it.
Speaker 2: I don't I haven't heard anything. I haven't seen any
Speaker 2: stats there. But yeah, everybody's up in arms with this.
Speaker 2: Sean and Florida. Hi, Sean, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 13: Here?
Speaker 14: Good morning Dan and Dan Eds. I wanted to say
Speaker 14: quickly about the pitch push and I had a question
Speaker 14: first and foremost go Gators, and then the words of
Speaker 14: Tommy how aka little Larry Bird Walter Clayton is a cold,
Speaker 14: cold man.
Speaker 15: I wanted to say that tiss plus is boring and
Speaker 15: lame and nobody likes it, and nights why they should
Speaker 15: get rid of your only people that like their the
Speaker 15: Eagles fans. And then quickly, I know it's ton off topic,
Speaker 15: but uh, well, we signed Chris Godwin back. So we
Speaker 15: got Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. I want to get
Speaker 15: your guys' thoughts on it. There's a better wide receiver
Speaker 15: due out there. Thanks guy, coming your day.
Speaker 2: I would say Pooka Koua, I would think with him,
Speaker 2: with Duwante Adams, I would say those two guys, you
Speaker 2: still have to have Wadle and Tyreek Hill in there.
Speaker 2: Although I wonder how much longer Tyreek Hills with the Dolphins.
Speaker 2: I mean, I wonder what do the Dolphins look like
Speaker 2: next year if they have a sub five hundred record
Speaker 2: coaching jeopardy, Tyreek Hill not gonna want to be there?
Speaker 2: What happens with Tua? Like I, this feels like a really, really,
Speaker 2: really important season for the Dolphins. Here's the Dolphins head coach,
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel on Tyreek kill.
Speaker 16: I can certainly say with certainty that at this certain moment, yeah,
Speaker 16: we are fully planning to move forward as a better
Speaker 16: version of our of our relationship with Tyreek and the
Speaker 16: Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 10: So I have no reason to think otherwise.
Speaker 2: He's a character. He is. Uh, he better get better
Speaker 2: as a coach, because they this feels like a must
Speaker 2: must win situation. We're already must win on April first,
Speaker 2: and it's not an April Fools joke. Let's get the
Speaker 2: hot seat going. Yeah yeah, non April Fools edition. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 2: you boy, who's.
Speaker 4: Got the hottest seat in the NFL for head coach?
Speaker 2: Next on? Getta up?
Speaker 9: Yes, Paul Tua is under contract with the Dolphins for
Speaker 9: two more years. It would be really tough to not
Speaker 9: stick with him. They can get out after the twenty
Speaker 9: twenty sixties.
Speaker 2: Well, no, they'll just trade him. You can get out
Speaker 2: by trading him. I don't I can't imagine he's there
Speaker 2: after this next season. I think this is this is it.
Speaker 2: He's already put out cryptic messages on social media. You
Speaker 2: probably end up back with the Chiefs. But yeah, you
Speaker 2: think about the Dolphins. There's a lot at steak your
Speaker 2: GM and your coach, your star wide receiver, and then
Speaker 2: how does that affect your quarterback? With two Let me
Speaker 2: see Will in West Virginia, Good morning, Will, what's on
Speaker 2: your mind?
Speaker 3: I bp a two part question. So why aren't there
Speaker 3: more comparisons with Cooper Flag and Christian Latner? How would
Speaker 3: you compare the two? And with Chris in success four
Speaker 3: years under coach k you know, considered one of the
Speaker 3: greatest of all time in college and he goes on
Speaker 3: to have a subpar NBA career, what spell success for Cooper?
Speaker 2: I think Cooper's just a more athletic player, and he's
Speaker 2: great at both ends. He's a great passer, and I
Speaker 2: mean Latner is one of the top ten, maybe top five,
Speaker 2: greatest college basketball players of all time. You know, the
Speaker 2: resume is there, but four final fours, couple of national titles,
Speaker 2: and can't argue, can't argue with the bottom line with
Speaker 2: later Now you can argue with some of the things
Speaker 2: that he did to get to the bottom line. But
Speaker 2: he was a tremendous college basketball player. It's just the
Speaker 2: pros are different than college. I look, I've watched so
Speaker 2: many great college players and it doesn't translate to the pros,
Speaker 2: and then we diminish what they did in college, which
Speaker 2: isn't fair to them. Tyler Hansbro he might still be
Speaker 2: the all time leading scorer in ACC history, but he
Speaker 2: wasn't a good pro. But he was still the all
Speaker 2: time leading scorer in the history of the ACC. And
Speaker 2: there have been wonderful college players. Rick Mount who played
Speaker 2: at Purdue back in the sixties, one of the greatest
Speaker 2: shooters ever. He wasn't a good pro. But then there
Speaker 2: are guys who are good in college, like John Habilcheck
Speaker 2: when he played at Ohio State back in the sixties,
Speaker 2: he was Jerry Lucas was the best player. He was
Speaker 2: one of the players he goes on to have a
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame career, and in fact, it was on
Speaker 2: this date. I don't know if I have the exact year.
Speaker 2: Nineteen seventy three, Habilcheck made twenty four to thirty six
Speaker 2: field goal attempts. He had fifty four points in Game
Speaker 2: one of the Eastern Conference Playoffs against the Hawks. But
Speaker 2: when he was at Ohio State, it was Jerry Lucas.
Speaker 2: Certain guys develop and Cooper Flag is only eighteen. Latner
Speaker 2: was a finished product. He didn't get better in the pros.
Speaker 2: He was already really good. He went to the wrong
Speaker 2: team as well. He wasn't a savior. Shack became better.
Speaker 2: Laytner was better in college than Shaq was. I mean
Speaker 2: it wasn't even close, Shack admitted. But that Cooper Flag,
Speaker 2: he's just far more athletic. And you know, I don't
Speaker 2: want to get into I'm going to compare the two.
Speaker 2: I'm just going to tell you. Flag is a really
Speaker 2: good passer. He is very aggressive offensively and defensively. And
Speaker 2: when you think that he's only eighteen and should be
Speaker 2: a senior in high school, like he should be playing
Speaker 2: in a state championship game in Maine, although he went
Speaker 2: to Montbverdie but he that's rare somebody that young, this
Speaker 2: good and going against the Olympic team and holding his
Speaker 2: own against the Olympic team. I mean that's when all
Speaker 2: of a sudden people realized it's not hype, it's real.
Speaker 2: And do I think he'll have a better career than Latner, Yes,
Speaker 2: he will in the pros. I believe that. But college wise,
Speaker 2: these guys don't stand. Latner might be the last great
Speaker 2: college career in men's basketball. Like, but you know these
Speaker 2: guys who were before him, You know Tim Duncan and
Speaker 2: he was there four years grand Hill, but Latner's career.
Speaker 2: Guys aren't going to stay for three or four years.
Speaker 2: That might be the last complete career, great career in
Speaker 2: college basketball history. I don't know who else, Barbin, you
Speaker 2: have put on there.
Speaker 4: You just mentioned Tyler Hansborough. Yeah, he might have the
Speaker 4: last great four year run. He finished off with a
Speaker 4: national title. Yeah, all time leading scorer. I don't think
Speaker 4: he's as iconic as Christian Leans. Oh no, no, I
Speaker 4: don't want to put him in that category. But as
Speaker 4: far as he was great all four years, he might
Speaker 4: be the last one. And on top of that, it's
Speaker 4: probably because he was in a great NBA prospect, because
Speaker 4: if he was, he wouldn't stay four years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but back then Ewing stayed four, latnerned Duncan stayed four.
Speaker 2: That's the difference. You weren't looked at almost like what's
Speaker 2: wrong with your game? You can't go pro now one year?
Speaker 2: Like John Shire yesterday, he's not even having a conversation
Speaker 2: with Cooper Flag and like nope, nope, no need to.
Speaker 2: And the only conversation he probably had about going pro
Speaker 2: was when he signed him and said, hey, enjoy your
Speaker 2: six months. Here, take a break. Play the day up next.
Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 11: Oh My God.
Speaker 2: Of the day.
Speaker 11: This is the play of the day.
Speaker 6: Check this out. Here's the payoff pitch. So I got
Speaker 6: a driving the air well hit right center, It's got
Speaker 6: some legs, it's back near the wall. Slam payn Alonzo
Speaker 6: his first home running the air, clears the paces and
Speaker 6: the becks him up with up us six to one.
Speaker 2: Me four career Grand slams for Pete Alonzo. That ties
Speaker 2: him for eighth most by a met. Darryl Strawberry, the
Speaker 2: franchise leader, was six. That's courtesy of the Mets Radio Network.
Speaker 2: That's your play of the day. Play of the day
Speaker 2: brought to you by the great folks at Maco. Most
Speaker 2: cars on the road could use a little TLC. At Maco,
Speaker 2: they bring your car back to life, affordable paint jobs
Speaker 2: like collision repairs. Get a free estimate today. Uh oh,
Speaker 2: better get Maco. I was leaving this morning. I normally
Speaker 2: take my dog, winning a four year old rescue, and
Speaker 2: I have my son's dog because my son and his
Speaker 2: wife have been traveling. So we have a shiba Inu
Speaker 2: who's eleven years old, and they act like a cat.
Speaker 2: They couldn't care less about you walking out the door,
Speaker 2: and the four year old is going crazy as she
Speaker 2: always does, and then little Cooper goes with that sad
Speaker 2: look of I don't get to go for a ride.
Speaker 2: Go out to the garage. She's still there looking. I go,
Speaker 2: all right, get in the car. So, if you're watching
Speaker 2: on Peacock, the dogs are running around the whole place here.
Speaker 2: But it wasn't bring your dog to work, it was
Speaker 2: bring your dogs to work day, and so everybody's kind
Speaker 2: of navigating here with two dogs and eleven year old
Speaker 2: and a four year old. All right, oh, Paully just
Speaker 2: had something on Coastal Carolina. Coastal Carolina is going to
Speaker 2: at their football games. They're going to give you whatever
Speaker 2: you want for free. Now, they're not going to give
Speaker 2: you beer, but food and drink. You want hot dogs free,
Speaker 2: not shows, free, soda, free, everything free. Now you've got
Speaker 2: to pay for beers. But getting you into the stadium,
Speaker 2: you're going to have to buy tickets, you know, parking,
Speaker 2: those kind of things. But I'm wondering Coastal Carolina. First
Speaker 2: of all, they're not on the coast, but I'll look
Speaker 2: past that. Coast Ish Carolina. What was their average attendance
Speaker 2: last year?
Speaker 9: So Coastal Carolina is a pretty good football school lately.
Speaker 9: The Chanta Clears. Three years ago they averaged seventeen thousand
Speaker 9: people game. Last year they averaged twenty one to four.
Speaker 9: And that's pretty much a packed house for the twenty
Speaker 9: twenty four season. Okay, so now when you go to
Speaker 9: the games, if you have a game ticket, you walk in,
Speaker 9: you could select up to four items per concession stand
Speaker 9: visit from a menu selection of hot dogs, nachos, popcorn,
Speaker 9: and fountain drinks. There is no limit on how many
Speaker 9: times you can visit the concession stands, but you must
Speaker 9: scan the app with your ticket each time. Beers not included,
Speaker 9: and some other specialty items third party vendors not included.
Speaker 2: Now, can I sit right by the concession stand and
Speaker 2: still watch the game?
Speaker 9: No, they're kind of in the concourse behind. But no,
Speaker 9: I like where your head's at.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 9: They estimate that they make about two hundred and fifty
Speaker 9: thousand per game off concessions Coastal Carolina.
Speaker 2: Okay, and they won't.
Speaker 9: Sell a lot more tickets because they're kind of packed already.
Speaker 9: But from is this a branding play? Is this a
Speaker 9: publicity play?
Speaker 2: This isn't an April Fools Day?
Speaker 9: No, they released it yesterday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that could be get a head start on
Speaker 2: it the April Fools Yeah. Seen. My guess is you
Speaker 2: have to do all of this through their athletics app. Right,
Speaker 2: there's a much bigger play down the line with that
Speaker 2: app that there's about to launch sometime in the coming weeks.
Speaker 10: I'm guessing that that's going to be the move. They're
Speaker 10: going to take a short term hit on this to
Speaker 10: make sure everybody gets that app, and then after that
Speaker 10: that's where all the money's gonna be made.
Speaker 2: Huh. Todd said that he thinks that they'll rename the
Speaker 2: stadium Ozembic Stadium, Ironic.
Speaker 7: Hot Dogs and nine pop chords and twelve notchers.
Speaker 2: Thank you Todd. By the way, April Fool's Day got
Speaker 2: started back by the French and the fifteen hundreds. In
Speaker 2: case you care, it's been going on for a long time.
Speaker 2: That's when I think humor. I think the French Bonjo
Speaker 2: come that too. Would you give me an update on
Speaker 2: the pole results there seating for the first hour. Hecky,
Speaker 2: I can give you an update on that, sure, Keny stalling, stalling.
Speaker 10: We have the brotherly shove the tush push today will
Speaker 10: be made legal or illegal right now, fifty four percent
Speaker 10: have it being made illegal. A lot of people think
Speaker 10: it's staying. Okay people, I.
Speaker 2: Think it is because it's going to take unless the
Speaker 2: commissioner is going around the room and talking to everybody
Speaker 2: and saying, Hey, I'm going to call in a favor,
Speaker 2: Hey I need this, Hey, you got to help me
Speaker 2: on this. Feels like he wants it out of the game.
Speaker 2: He's probably going to get his way. We'll have more
Speaker 2: phone calls coming up, we'll talk to Robert Breer. He'll
Speaker 2: join us in ten minutes from now from the Competition Committee,
Speaker 2: owners meetings or meeting, NFL meetings, meeting, what is it?
Speaker 8: God, officially it's a meeting, but as a seating point
Speaker 8: to out, everyone else you know is calling it meetings.
Speaker 2: Okay, Adam leftgo will join us a little bit later on.
Speaker 2: We'll do fill in the blank. Jeff Passing, he'll join
Speaker 2: us as well. The torpedo bat controversy, he'll join us
Speaker 2: as well. See anything else that I forgot. Yukon in
Speaker 2: Texas in the women's final four last night is Paige
Speaker 2: Becker's continues, her great run, never won a national title,
Speaker 2: one of the greatest players there and in women's college basketball,
Speaker 2: and they're favorite to win the national championship. All right,
Speaker 2: one hour in the books. We got two more to
Speaker 2: go this Tuesday. The King of Comedy, Fritzie Seaton, Marv
