Speaker 1: I need to cover live on the Zone part of
Speaker 1: my responsibilities. Thursday night Demetrius Android headlining a middleweight champion. Yeah, seven,
Speaker 1: can you get us tickets? Sure to the fight? I
Speaker 1: would be all right, you want it? All? Four of
Speaker 1: you ready to go? Maybe I'm just bringing that on
Speaker 1: these guys. I like boxing boxing was fun. Last boxing
Speaker 1: match I saw a person was Hassen Rockman. Oh when
Speaker 1: like fifteen years ago, I remember Andrew Galata and those guys. Yes,
Speaker 1: and after we were in row three and after has
Speaker 1: seen Rockman fought, he came and he sat in the
Speaker 1: seat next to us with his girlfriend or wife afterwards.
Speaker 1: Be real nice. Yeah, seen Rockman now a trainer in boxing.
Speaker 1: Got a lot of mileage out of that one win
Speaker 1: over Lennox, who's right now the best fighter on earth,
Speaker 1: either perception wise, fame wise or actual Loman Tinko other
Speaker 1: Canelo Alvarez up and down the spectrum. I think he's
Speaker 1: the best fighter in boxing pound per pound, and he's
Speaker 1: clearly the biggest star in boxing right now. I mean
Speaker 1: his fights are equilled a mussy TV for boxing, and
Speaker 1: he can fight all over the world and make a
Speaker 1: lot of money. Anthony Josh are probably the biggest global star,
Speaker 1: but North America Anthony Kennello Alvarez financially, Hello Alvarez all
Speaker 1: day long. Alvats Glove can gonna happen again one more time?
Speaker 1: Or now we're optimistic. The zone is optimistic anyway that
Speaker 1: it happened. Sometime in September. Kenello probably gonna go or
Speaker 1: at least leaning towards going over to Japan for his
Speaker 1: next fight to fight maybe in the Tokyo Dome over
Speaker 1: there against the guy named Riyo to Morada. But if
Speaker 1: he gets through that fight and go off and get
Speaker 1: through his next fight in April, I think it's September,
Speaker 1: you'll see the third fight. At least you're hopefully cann
Speaker 1: see a third fight between those guys. Who's my guy
Speaker 1: Theo Fimoimo Lopez y Glomo Chanco big fight and May.
Speaker 1: Those are two entertaining fighters. Entertaining fighters. Kafimo is a
Speaker 1: showman out there. He's from Brooklyn. He's from Brooklyn, aw
Speaker 1: he lives in Vegas now, but from Brooklyn. Yes, I
Speaker 1: gives dropping knowledge. Twenty and sixteen olympian, probably the best
Speaker 1: Olympian from that class right now without question, World champion
Speaker 1: already chance to fight for the Unified Championship on dispute championship.
Speaker 1: No dates set yet, but I think April or May
Speaker 1: is a targeted date, either in New York or in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles. That one too. Look at you guys, boxing guys,
Speaker 1: hitting up these fights. I think the actually the fight
Speaker 1: itself on this weekend is that the new the Direct
Speaker 1: TV stadium down there, the one they're building for entertainment stuff.
Speaker 1: And get it. We didn't get our invite, but did you?
Speaker 1: It didn't invite me. I'm doing the show part of
Speaker 1: the broadcast. Don't be so offended. I'll get to tickets
Speaker 1: if you can't get them through other means. What good
Speaker 1: is having this thin skin if we can't get offended,
Speaker 1: Chris All, I'd love to get to in this Our
Speaker 1: quick update on Antonio Brown, the former Patriots wide receiver
Speaker 1: Raiders wide receiver kind of Steelers wide receiver. He showed
Speaker 1: up at his first court appearance today. He was wearing
Speaker 1: a anti suicide smock. His bond was set one hundred
Speaker 1: thousand dollars for the burglar in battery charge. The judge
Speaker 1: order Brown to wear a GPS monitor, surrender his passport,
Speaker 1: and undergo a mental health evaluation. So maybe good news
Speaker 1: for Antonio Brown if he's or trying to go a
Speaker 1: mental health evaluation, maybe something comes of it. We know
Speaker 1: his former agent, Drew Rosenhouse, who parted ways with him,
Speaker 1: at least temporarily until Brown gets some help. He had
Speaker 1: lingering questions about that. All the actions taken by Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown over the last six months suggests there might be
Speaker 1: something wrong with him. So with the court stepping in
Speaker 1: ordering a mental health evaluation, ordering him to go through
Speaker 1: drug and alcohol testing, maybe that's something that could at
Speaker 1: least get Antonio Brown steered in the right direction. His
Speaker 1: NFL career probably over at this point, thirty two years
Speaker 1: old and everything that's happened over the last six months.
Speaker 1: But I guess you can never say never. If Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown suddenly goes through a transformation perloff over the next
Speaker 1: four months, if it turns out something was wrong with him,
Speaker 1: that there was a mental illness there, I can see
Speaker 1: a handful of teams taking a fire on Antonio Brown. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we got an interesting tweet comparison. How about Richie Incognito,
Speaker 1: a guy who you would have thought would be done,
Speaker 1: I mean at all sorts of problems. So you're right.
Speaker 1: I mean, the only thing with him is his position,
Speaker 1: so age it dependent you know that he's gotta turned
Speaker 1: around quickly. I think I think the opportunity would be
Speaker 1: granted to him because assuming he gets all the help
Speaker 1: that he may need. I think the opportunity will be
Speaker 1: there because he left the game as arguably the best
Speaker 1: wide receiver in the game. So even though he was
Speaker 1: thirty two years old, the talent last scene was there
Speaker 1: right like it was, it was on display. Let's gonna
Speaker 1: take in New England about the Patriots cutting it was there.
Speaker 1: Are people defend Antonio Brown think that was a mistake
Speaker 1: or was that there was there no choice at that point.
Speaker 1: I think that the fans wanted to keep him. I
Speaker 1: think sports fans in general, and Patriots fans in this context,
Speaker 1: that can pretty much justify everything. And for the weeks
Speaker 1: leading up to the Patriots signing Antonio Brown, what was
Speaker 1: the big narrative around New England. Their wide receiver corps
Speaker 1: were weak, no Rob Gronkowski at tight end, Brady needed help.
Speaker 1: And then that first game, Brown had a touchdown against
Speaker 1: the Dolphins and looked to me like Brady was trying
Speaker 1: to force feed him the ball, try to develop chemistry
Speaker 1: almost in the real time. And the trickle down effect
Speaker 1: of Antonio Brown being cut is that as we sit here,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady maybe playing in another uniform next year. Would
Speaker 1: he be in another uniform if Antonio Brown had been
Speaker 1: able to last the whole season in New England. Would
Speaker 1: their season have ended differently if Antonio Brown had been
Speaker 1: the receiver that we all know he can be. Tom
Speaker 1: Brady right now is weighing his options out there. You've
Speaker 1: all seen the reports. He moved out of that house
Speaker 1: in the Boston area. He's moved to Connecticut. He's looking
Speaker 1: at free agency. He's not no guarantee at all, but
Speaker 1: he's gonna wind up back in New England after the season.
Speaker 1: A lot of that can be traced back to Antonio
Speaker 1: Brown's not everything, but the Patriot's decision not to significantly
Speaker 1: upgrade their receiver corps last offseason, cutting Antonio Brown. All
Speaker 1: that is part of the narrative surrounding Tom Brady right now. Yeah, Paully,
Speaker 1: there's something that's kind of confusing with the Patriot situation
Speaker 1: of Brady. Brady made it pretty clear that he wanted
Speaker 1: to play and wanted to play next year right after
Speaker 1: the season. I'm not retiring, and then he put the
Speaker 1: post on Instagram, I'm ready to play. I'm not done.
Speaker 1: I got a lot to prove. He basically put the
Speaker 1: ball in the Patriots court of do you want me back? Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm ready to play. And then the Patriots come out
Speaker 1: and there's a story going on right now that the
Speaker 1: Patriots want to know what his intentions are before March
Speaker 1: so they can make their draft and free agency plans.
Speaker 1: Those don't match. He said he wants to play, or
Speaker 1: as he was his message, I want to play, but
Speaker 1: I want to be paid the full boat, because I've
Speaker 1: given you guys a bunch of hometown discounts every other year.
Speaker 1: But he basically redes his contract to give them them
Speaker 1: more caproom to sign players. It's confusing what's going on there.
Speaker 1: There's a chunk of the story that's not out there yet,
Speaker 1: a big chunk of the story. Whether it is some
Speaker 1: kind of more serious rift with Bill Belichick, which I
Speaker 1: think is the most likely scenario in all this, because
Speaker 1: it doesn't make sense for the Patriots not to want
Speaker 1: to commit to Tom Brady at a good number over
Speaker 1: two years. It's not like they're sitting there right now
Speaker 1: with Jimmy Garoppolo waiting in the wings. Does anybody know
Speaker 1: if Jared's sidim can play? Does anybody believe that Teddy
Speaker 1: Bridgewater is like this big upgrade over Tom Brady. I
Speaker 1: know he struggled last year, but he is just a
Speaker 1: year removed from being considered an elite quarterback, arguably the
Speaker 1: best quarterback or at least the top five quarterback in
Speaker 1: all of football. There's no reason to absolutely believe that
Speaker 1: last season was the beginning of the end. You heard
Speaker 1: about the report Mike yardic METFL network say he's got
Speaker 1: some elbow problem. What if that resolves itself in the
Speaker 1: off season. What if they get better wide receivers? This
Speaker 1: season they were playing with what Mohammed Sanu who didn't
Speaker 1: work out with that team. They had second and third
Speaker 1: string tight ends. You had Nikil Harry who didn't make
Speaker 1: that big of an impact as a rookie wide receiver
Speaker 1: with that team, Edelman was still Edelman. But it doesn't
Speaker 1: you give him a little more weapons. Why can't we
Speaker 1: at least believe it's possible that Tom Brady could return
Speaker 1: to that highest level. That's why I think there's something
Speaker 1: missing in this story. Something serious has gone on behind
Speaker 1: this scenes that's causing this disconnect. Otherwise you'd say, all right, Tom,
Speaker 1: here's a two year deal. You want the money. Look
Speaker 1: at all you've accomplished, and you're gonna balk over a
Speaker 1: two year deal at big money when you have nothing
Speaker 1: waiting in the wings. None of that makes any sense
Speaker 1: from a pure football perspective. Yeah, Paulie, Well, another thing
Speaker 1: I don't understand is where Belichick fits into this SE's
Speaker 1: sixty seven. I'm sure he does not want a quick coaching.
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to quit coaching. But I wonder if he
Speaker 1: wants to get to the last air of his coaching faster.
Speaker 1: Like if Tom Brady leaves now and he goes to
Speaker 1: a new quarterback, whether it's a twenty eight year old
Speaker 1: or a rookie, he starts that now, he's delaying it
Speaker 1: by two years with a Brady on the backside of
Speaker 1: his career. You know, I know that's convoluted, But I
Speaker 1: wonder if Belichick, almost like the Bowls did with Michael Jordan,
Speaker 1: those guys, he said, let's let's do the rebuild now.
Speaker 1: He wants to get the rebuild going if it's going
Speaker 1: to happen. He doesn't want to delay it for two
Speaker 1: years if he doesn't think he could win with his
Speaker 1: current quarterback. Right, But nothing is stopping the Patriots from
Speaker 1: drafting a quarterback in like the first round this year,
Speaker 1: like let's say two of slips because of the hip
Speaker 1: injury and ghost falls all the way down to the
Speaker 1: Patriots wherever they're drafting in the mid to late twenties,
Speaker 1: there's nothing stopping them from taking them taking him and
Speaker 1: sitting him on the bench for a couple of years
Speaker 1: while Tom Brady finishes his career, like at most he's
Speaker 1: gonna have two maybe three years left. Why wouldn't you
Speaker 1: draft the quarterback of the future and have him play
Speaker 1: and play behind him, and then go out and spend
Speaker 1: whatever capital you have left on a top shelf wide receiver,
Speaker 1: upgrade those corps, and then deal with the quarterback situation
Speaker 1: the draft. I don't I'm not sitting here thinking, Teddy
Speaker 1: Bridgewater is the difference between Tom Brady and a championship
Speaker 1: with this team? Yeah, because it does. See if he
Speaker 1: just looked at the last five years, they're on a
Speaker 1: pretty good run of making it to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I mean they've been in right, he would saying four
Speaker 1: of the last five years they've been in there and
Speaker 1: one three of them. So it seems a little premature
Speaker 1: to me that people think all of a sudden, Tom
Speaker 1: Brady is the problem, or you know that it's not
Speaker 1: worth sticking it out with him there in New England.
Speaker 1: But I mean recent the offense was clearly a problem
Speaker 1: in the Rams game, yep, that Ram Super Bowl because
Speaker 1: they couldn't put up any points. But then any other
Speaker 1: year before that with the Eagles, that was a defensive problem.
Speaker 1: So you know, it's a little up and down year
Speaker 1: by year it is. And the offense though in that
Speaker 1: game made a big play with Gronk that passed down
Speaker 1: the field. I mean, they came up with a big
Speaker 1: play when they needed to come up with a big play.
Speaker 1: I'd also like to know what Brady's thinking about, Like
Speaker 1: for Brady, does another situation it's so bad in New
Speaker 1: England that you think the LA Chargers might be a
Speaker 1: better fit. Is it's so bad in New England that
Speaker 1: you're considering playing for Mike Rabel in Tennessee? Like does
Speaker 1: Tom Brady move the needle for those teams that much
Speaker 1: that it makes sense for him to go there? Like
Speaker 1: the LA Chargers you had Tom Brady instead of Philip Rivers.
Speaker 1: Are they measurably better next year? Maybe if Brady regains
Speaker 1: the form we saw from two years ago, But I
Speaker 1: don't think so. Yeah, Paul. That does go back to
Speaker 1: that story a few years ago where the Belichick and
Speaker 1: the management some management wanted to keep Garoppolo and stay
Speaker 1: with him and that Brady. The rumored story it was
Speaker 1: he had to go to Robert Kraft and have Robert
Speaker 1: Kraft up put the foot down, say we're moving this guy.
Speaker 1: You're a quarterback for the next few years. I wonder
Speaker 1: if that would stick and say, like, you know what,
Speaker 1: they weren't gonna be loyal to me, what's the reason
Speaker 1: for me to be loyal to that. Maybe it did,
Speaker 1: but I don't think loyalties should have anything to do
Speaker 1: with it. At that time. If Jimmy Garoppolo looked like
Speaker 1: clearly Jimmy Garoppolo was a player, like he clearly is
Speaker 1: a high level quarterback, and Bill Belicher could see that
Speaker 1: in a limited time that Garoppolo had the field, took
Speaker 1: the field and look, if Garoppolo was still around, I
Speaker 1: would be all on board with the idea that you
Speaker 1: move off of Tom Brady, but you don't have him there.
Speaker 1: And what as Garret Stidham played in her The only
Speaker 1: time I saw Stidham play was when he came into
Speaker 1: that game early in the season, threw a pick six
Speaker 1: and then was yank out of it. Yeah, they're up
Speaker 1: by three touchdowns. They put Hoyer in or they put
Speaker 1: the Brady back. They put Brady back in. I know
Speaker 1: which killed the Stidham killed the line. I bet the
Speaker 1: Patriots that kid. But Garoppolo played in three NFL games
Speaker 1: and got the biggest contract in quarterbacking has played really
Speaker 1: well though it's three two and a half two and
Speaker 1: a half hurt and that the half time, and then
Speaker 1: they became the highest pack quarterback in the support. Well,
Speaker 1: but I mean, I think there was a build up
Speaker 1: to that. Plus, right, Garoppolo was a second round pick
Speaker 1: coming out of what was at Eastern Illinois at that point,
Speaker 1: and he had kind of a there was like kind
Speaker 1: of a Tony Romo vibe to him coming out of
Speaker 1: the U out of the draft. So I think that
Speaker 1: there was more evidence to give Jimmy Garoppolo that type
Speaker 1: of contract. Yeah, and Dalton comes to England. I feel
Speaker 1: like that was like a manufacture. Somebody asked Peter King
Speaker 1: that and he just like answered it and it became
Speaker 1: like Andy Dalton with the Patriots. I don't I don't know,
Speaker 1: he's oh he's fine, But I don't see I don't
Speaker 1: look at Andy Dalton as being the reason to fracture
Speaker 1: your relationship with Tom Brady. It I don't like it.
Speaker 1: Would just agree for all that. I mean, you, I
Speaker 1: agree there's one logical spot for him next year where
Speaker 1: box Patriots? Yeah? Yeah, not the Chargers. Not you can't
Speaker 1: move off Ryan Tannehill. If you're h to the Titans,
Speaker 1: you can't do as well go run with that? Why not? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think I think you're at it's the only place
Speaker 1: that makes sense. But sort of getting back to what
Speaker 1: you were saying before, hard feelings can be pretty powerful. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I think I think Ron had some harts feelings.
Speaker 1: I don't think Ron wanted to play for Belichick anymore,
Speaker 1: but Brady feels the same way. Yeah. Dan compared it
Speaker 1: to win the Bulls split up the Jordan team and
Speaker 1: drafted Eddie Curry and Tyson Chandler. That Trouse want to
Speaker 1: move on. You know that's true. Jerry Cross didn't want
Speaker 1: to move on from that game, and they did it
Speaker 1: a year early. But they've said that they could have
Speaker 1: signed Jordan, Pippen and Rodman for one MAX deal each
Speaker 1: one full because remember the Larry Bird rule. The last
Speaker 1: two years, Michael Jordan made thirty three million dollars. He
Speaker 1: made about three per year before that. Because of the
Speaker 1: Larry Bird rule, they weren't against the calf with him
Speaker 1: or Pippin. They could have kept both those guys for
Speaker 1: one more year. You know, we talk about we will
Speaker 1: talk about college players being paid, but NBA players are
Speaker 1: the stars are grossly underpaid. Michael Jordan thirty three million dollars.
Speaker 1: What was Michael Jordan worth the Bulls back then? One
Speaker 1: hundred million and he was only paid to his last
Speaker 1: two seasons. Jordan got most of his career sally. He
Speaker 1: made about three three million, five hundred thousand a year
Speaker 1: first first ten years. Lebron's a max player right now?
Speaker 1: What's he worth of the Lakers? Two hundred million dollars?
Speaker 1: I mean the NBA it revolves around Lebron James and
Speaker 1: the games that he plays in. Like he is a
Speaker 1: singular ratings driver that consistently puts up big numbers. The
Speaker 1: Lakers consistently sell out and do huge numbers and merchandise
Speaker 1: because of Lebron James. I think he's making thirty five
Speaker 1: forty million dollars this year. It should be double that
Speaker 1: he is worth double that amount of money star players,
Speaker 1: and it could be true for all sports. But I
Speaker 1: know in the NBA star players are underpaid at that level.
Speaker 1: The mid level players, they get taken care of at
Speaker 1: a high level because of the negotiations. You've got the
Speaker 1: I think the mid level salary in the nbase like
Speaker 1: ten million dollars, like you get like Aaron Baines this
Speaker 1: summer's probably get ten million dollars like that type of
Speaker 1: player is getting paid big money. He is not. He's
Speaker 1: not worth a quarter of what Lebron James is worth.
Speaker 1: Simple as that. Yeah, yeah, we have. We played this
Speaker 1: song and it makes fun of Cleveland and one of
Speaker 1: his Yeah, you know, our economy is depended on Lebron James.
Speaker 1: I mean, the dude run the economy of an entire
Speaker 1: metropolitan area. He's two hundred million, baby conservative, all right?
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven three. DP shows the phone number email
Speaker 1: address DP at dan Patrick dot com. So I'm glad
Speaker 1: you guys like the twenty twenty DP show calendar. We've
Speaker 1: sent up almost twenty five hundred and there's still time

Speaker 1: I do want to talk about the comments that Mark
Speaker 1: Emert made at his State of the nc DOUBLEA media
Speaker 1: availability just yesterday in Anaheim, California, and what that means
Speaker 1: for the potential of paying players in two twenty and beyond.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that next coming up on eighteen minutes
Speaker 1: past the hour. This is The Dan Patrick Show. Hey,

Speaker 1: Let me sure to scribe on podcast one, Apple podcast
Speaker 1: and many other podcasts listening apps so you don't miss
Speaker 1: an episode. So as we speak, Eli Manning taking questions
Speaker 1: from New York reporters, officially announcing his retire from the
Speaker 1: NFL after sixteen seasons. So huge surprise there if Eli
Speaker 1: lost his job midway through this one. So I guess,
Speaker 1: plow tell me, could Eli have been a could he
Speaker 1: have signed somewhere else? Takes a backup? Backup? No, he
Speaker 1: couldn't even been a bridge for a young guy. Okay,
Speaker 1: so no, and that's really multiple reports. Peter King and
Speaker 1: a few other people said there was no job. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because there was a time when, even before the start
Speaker 1: of this season that he looked at like Jacksonville as
Speaker 1: being a possibility. Because yeah, and maybe even before Tannehill
Speaker 1: took off, you could have said, yeah, go down to
Speaker 1: Tennessee and yeah, play behind Mariota for a minute. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you were Eli, would you take a backup job
Speaker 1: just to keep getting pay? He's probably made a ton
Speaker 1: of money in his career. He's got a future on
Speaker 1: television too. I don't know, not as clearly. He's not
Speaker 1: as telegenic as his brother, but I think he's got
Speaker 1: a pretty good future as a television comment there. Yeah, pobably,
Speaker 1: the two rings makes them feel complete. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: sitting there today. I'm sure he would like to play
Speaker 1: more football, but he doesn't need it. There's not something
Speaker 1: sticking there. He's got two rings in New York he's
Speaker 1: going to get in the Hall of Fame no matter whatever.
Speaker 1: But he thinks, and he's the highest paid player in
Speaker 1: NFL history, you're ring to get you in the Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame. Yep, Absolutely, it's hard not to. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: were talking about it yesterday with Dan as far as
Speaker 1: having Tony Romo versus Peyton and Eli is Eli, and
Speaker 1: you know, Pete and obvious has a much better personality,
Speaker 1: but Eli, any of himself, would he be able to
Speaker 1: do that well, you know, with that aushuck kind of
Speaker 1: personality unless he's able to flip a switch and there's
Speaker 1: something about broadcasting that we don't know about what he
Speaker 1: can deliver. I'd probably start him in the studio. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's an ESPN gag in one of their nine hundred
Speaker 1: studio shows that they do, and see how he fares there.
Speaker 1: Before I'd put him in a broadcast both him. I
Speaker 1: did put him in a broadcast booth. I'd probably make
Speaker 1: him a third or fourth guy. You know, they gets
Speaker 1: so many teams now in the NFL. You could certainly
Speaker 1: his mind. I think he'd want someone like that his
Speaker 1: perspective in the Yeah, Paul, don't confuse Eli Manning's demeanor
Speaker 1: as the Giants quarterback, with his actual demeanor he was
Speaker 1: in New York. He played that Derek Jeter role of
Speaker 1: I want to give the media nothing, I want to
Speaker 1: do nothing. I want to go to work and try
Speaker 1: to be a member of the team. And he did
Speaker 1: that for years. He's an entertaining, funny guy. He's just
Speaker 1: not as entertaining as gregarious as his brother, who embraced
Speaker 1: it more so Tony Romo. No one thought he was
Speaker 1: funny until he took the job. No one thought he
Speaker 1: was going to be good on air until he did
Speaker 1: become good on air. Elis is from a media family.
Speaker 1: He's done a lot more stuff in the media, a
Speaker 1: lot more funny commercials than Tony Romo ever did. First
Speaker 1: retired quarterback to get a TV job Andrew Luck Manning.
Speaker 1: I don't think Andrew Luck has a TV in his house.
Speaker 1: He's got us books and like a wood stove. Where
Speaker 1: are the world is Andrew Luck right now? No one's
Speaker 1: interviewed him, No one's unclear. Silicon Valley Stanford. I thought
Speaker 1: there was a rumors he's going to get into that business.
Speaker 1: I mean, is there been a sighting? He announced that
Speaker 1: he and his family were going to stay in Annapolis
Speaker 1: for the time being. They just had a baby, I
Speaker 1: think two months ago. Okay, I wonder if he's being
Speaker 1: into the local target, you know, hanging out. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen anything about Luck in the last six months,
Speaker 1: and I kind of it's gone from gone from side,
Speaker 1: out of sight and out of mind. All right, eight
Speaker 1: seven seven three DP shows the phone number email address
Speaker 1: DP at Dan Patrick dot com. We have our Golden
Speaker 1: Road moment of the weekend. And apparently, guys on Monday,
Speaker 1: Melissa Etheridge rolled through and sang her version of the
Speaker 1: chief Super Bowl song. I got my friends and family
Speaker 1: all blowing up my phone. My kids think I'm go crazy.
Speaker 1: As I were running around my home. Well, I heard
Speaker 1: Dad Patrick wanted me to call into his show. Well
Speaker 1: the Chiefs must have won the AFC and we're heady
Speaker 1: to do the Super Bowl. Or when I was just
Speaker 1: staying a little girl home, my daddy is knee. I
Speaker 1: remember it, Laggy yesterday it was nineteen seventy and all
Speaker 1: that she's settling in Dawson, then Buck Bechano and Bobby Bell,
Speaker 1: Well that she's saw her in the Super Bowl. I
Speaker 1: heard my Daddy, We're fifty years. That came and went,
Speaker 1: and sometimes we got clots, and Denzal has never got
Speaker 1: to go. Jamal nor the Great Priest homes so many
Speaker 1: times it broke my heart thought I might never know.
Speaker 1: But the Chiefs just broke that playoff nurse, and now
Speaker 1: they headed to the super Bowl. I've seen the closest
Speaker 1: thing the Superman this girl has ever known. We train
Speaker 1: and I've been seventeen for the greatest at my home,
Speaker 1: and now I'm never worried, even if for far behind,
Speaker 1: because the way that number fifteen plays is flowing people's mind. Now,
Speaker 1: if there's anything I love as much as California Weed,
Speaker 1: it's Tyree, Kelsey Frank and Chris Honey Badger, Andy Reid.
Speaker 1: So take me back to Kansas, Mother Q and rock
Speaker 1: and roll, because the chief just want to see. How
Speaker 1: about that? But that's that three is their backstory behind that.
Speaker 1: Did you guys ask her to write something? Well, you've
Speaker 1: had her on a few times over the years she's
Speaker 1: been in studio and she did a little song. First
Speaker 1: last year Fritzie called her to come on the other day.
Speaker 1: I said, hey, if you could whip up a song
Speaker 1: real quick, and that was about twelve hours before she
Speaker 1: joined us at the Talent right there. That's amazing she
Speaker 1: did it that quickly because it was like Sunday night
Speaker 1: and she hadn't written anything yet, and all of a
Speaker 1: sudden the next morning. That's that's what I mean. That's
Speaker 1: someone with a deep knowledge of Chief's history. There. If
Speaker 1: you're dropping you know, anyone from Tyreek Hill, the priest Holmes,
Speaker 1: You're we're invested. Weed and Andy Reid. That was good.
Speaker 1: That was the best line of it all. Making the
Speaker 1: transition from California. We Danny Reid. That's uh, that's pretty
Speaker 1: special right there. That's your Golden Road bumb up the week.
Speaker 1: If you haven't tried Golden Road Brewing yet, you're missing out.
Speaker 1: Those guys are all about bringing you the finest quality
Speaker 1: craft beer available. Mango Kart He is inspired by the
Speaker 1: iconic fruit cart vendors of Los Angeles, is an incredibly
Speaker 1: crisp and refreshing light we aile bursting with lots of
Speaker 1: fresh mango, and then is my personal favorite, Wolf Pup
Speaker 1: Session IPA offered a can and draft. Wolf Pup Session
Speaker 1: IPA is hoppy and refreshing with aromatic aromatic tropical and
Speaker 1: citrus character brew to stand out. You'll find Mango car
Speaker 1: and Wolf Pup Session IPA available in all fifty states.
Speaker 1: California inspired Golden Road Brewing fresh craft beer since two
Speaker 1: thousand and eleven. Nice work by Melissa Athas there with
Speaker 1: that song, so Eli Manning announcing his retirement. We'll try
Speaker 1: to get some of that sound before the end of
Speaker 1: the show. Sixteen year NFL career Hall of Famer to
Speaker 1: be Perloft. Give me an update on the pole question
Speaker 1: for I turned this back to Mark Emritt and what
Speaker 1: he said yesterday Nanaheim, who would do a vote for
Speaker 1: in the Ultar game in the Eastern Conference? Among the guards,
Speaker 1: I gave Trey Young, Who's the starter? Ben Simmons, Kyle Lowry,
Speaker 1: Bradley Beale forty eight percent, Trey Young, twenty three percent
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons, sixteen Kyle and thirteen percent Brad Beale. You know,
Speaker 1: no respect for Kyle Lowry. The workman like effort of
Speaker 1: Kyle Lowry every single light doesn't draw fan attention. That's
Speaker 1: disappointing to me. Get with it, fans, Kyle Lowry should
Speaker 1: be your All Star starter this year Alongsi Kemba Walker.
Speaker 1: You just said a workman, Like if he anywhere the title,
Speaker 1: would you have said this? I mean, the playoffs certainly
Speaker 1: get him a bounce. Last year, the way plays mentioned
Speaker 1: the finals towards the end, I mean, he was good.
Speaker 1: So that was mye Kyle Lowry got my vote over
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons. I did not vote for Trey Young as
Speaker 1: an All Star starter. All right. So we were having
Speaker 1: a discussion earlier about you know, paying college players, and
Speaker 1: it's topical right now because Mark Emrett, the president of
Speaker 1: the NC Double A, in his annual State of the
Speaker 1: NC Double address, Now this issue was front and center
Speaker 1: because there seems to be a lot of ideas being
Speaker 1: kicked around as to how to compensate players. Certainly a
Speaker 1: lot of momentum for it, given what happened in California
Speaker 1: with the law that was passed there and other laws
Speaker 1: that seemed to be either on the books are about
Speaker 1: to be on the books across this country. Florida has
Speaker 1: one that they're openly discussing right now. Mark Emritton, Paul,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna paraphrase movie tell if him wrong. It seems
Speaker 1: like he's trending in the direction of paying players are
Speaker 1: letting players get paid off their own likeness. It appears
Speaker 1: that he realizes there's a lot of lawyers in that
Speaker 1: building and they may realize they don't have a leg
Speaker 1: to stand on as the Nevada leisure player. I'm sorry, California.
Speaker 1: The legislature in Florida and other states pap saying we're
Speaker 1: gonna make a rule that says these athletes can do it,
Speaker 1: and instead of fighting it, it appears they're gonna allow
Speaker 1: it because then they're paid outside the building, right And
Speaker 1: Mark Emert says there's a clear consensus on the need
Speaker 1: to change athlete pay rules, and then he follows it
Speaker 1: up by having some kind of I don't know. It
Speaker 1: seemed like he had a word vomit out there up
Speaker 1: there on the stage where I don't know what. I
Speaker 1: don't know exactly what he was saying. It's very lawyerally
Speaker 1: talk addressing this particular issue, but it does boil down
Speaker 1: to athletes at the highest level. If they can get
Speaker 1: paid off their likeness, if they can get paid to
Speaker 1: sign autographs, they will eventually have the power to go
Speaker 1: and do that. Now, some people, including my friends behind
Speaker 1: the glass here, if they don't think that is going
Speaker 1: far enough, you guys, I think almost universally believe that
Speaker 1: players should be getting some kind of payment, whether it's
Speaker 1: minimum wage for twenty hours a week or maybe some
Speaker 1: kind of stipend for what they get. I take the
Speaker 1: other at tact. I think that a star player being
Speaker 1: able to capitalize on his own likeness. And let's be real,
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, how much money could Trevor Lawrence make Let's
Speaker 1: say it starts now, over the next calendar year, how
Speaker 1: much money could Trevor Lawrence make off his own likeness.
Speaker 1: It's almost unlimited because he could do he could sign
Speaker 1: trading cards, autographs, he could partner with a shoe company,
Speaker 1: yet partner with glasses, anything that he wears on game
Speaker 1: day if it doesn't conflict with what Clemson. But we're
Speaker 1: talking seven figures right, if he had smart people around him, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's playing for a national title contender. He's been in
Speaker 1: the College Football Playoff the last couple of years. He's
Speaker 1: played well, he's been a champion. I mean, you would
Speaker 1: think he'd also be able to sign with an agent
Speaker 1: to represent him in these business dealings. I think you'll
Speaker 1: have to have and the Asian confront him as much
Speaker 1: money as they choose. Yeah, I mean that's a slippery
Speaker 1: slope you step on there with how much money that
Speaker 1: they're fronting, expecting it back on the back end. But
Speaker 1: I think some kind of marketing agent would be necessary,
Speaker 1: someone that can show you the rope, because you can't
Speaker 1: just like walk into a meeting with Nike and say like,
Speaker 1: all right, sure, I'll take that deal, but three sneakers
Speaker 1: for life awesome. The tough part about this is how
Speaker 1: does it work at the seventeen year old level on
Speaker 1: the recruiting trail? Can you promise a seventeen year old
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, Hey, if you control your own likeness, I
Speaker 1: guarantee you when you get here, we're going to offer
Speaker 1: you ten thousand a week, sign autographs at the local mall. Guaranteed.
Speaker 1: This is in a verbal contract, and as soon as
Speaker 1: you become an NTA athlete, we can make it a
Speaker 1: written contract and it'll be taxed and above board and everything.
Speaker 1: Look that to me, though, is the only viable option here.
Speaker 1: I don't believe that paying players minimum wage actually works,
Speaker 1: nor do I believe that certain players deserve to be
Speaker 1: paid minimum wage because it's not a popular position. But
Speaker 1: a scholarship accounts for something. Paula, you were saying in
Speaker 1: the first hour how you were paid to work at
Speaker 1: the student newspaper, But you also said that if you
Speaker 1: were given the option of having free tuition or getting
Speaker 1: paid by the student newspaper, you would take the free tuition.
Speaker 1: And that's what these players are getting. Tuition nowadays, what
Speaker 1: does it run even at state schools twenty thousand per
Speaker 1: year all the way up in the north of seventy
Speaker 1: thousand per year at some of these top flight schools.
Speaker 1: That's not nothing. And for the players who are like
Speaker 1: if you make the ninety something players on a college
Speaker 1: football depth chart nine five, if you're looking at players
Speaker 1: like ten to ninety five, those players, in terms of
Speaker 1: overall talent have no shot of making the NFL. So
Speaker 1: they have the opportunity to use that two hundred thousand
Speaker 1: dollars education to springboard themselves into their next the next
Speaker 1: phase of their careers. That I think that has to
Speaker 1: count for something. They are getting something out of being
Speaker 1: a part at the university. It's not a fair trade.
Speaker 1: These coaches we just saw at Ozeron, who by the way,
Speaker 1: deserves every nickel sid a sixty year, forty two million
Speaker 1: dollars deal with LSU, I mean a huge contract. These
Speaker 1: college coaches are vastly overpaid. These stadiums are palaces out
Speaker 1: there right now, so the money's going into some stuff.
Speaker 1: I think players deserve to get a piece of it.
Speaker 1: But I don't think there is like this equitable way
Speaker 1: to do it. I don't think there's an obvious path
Speaker 1: to get these guys paid. I would be very much
Speaker 1: in favor of making sure that that meal card they
Speaker 1: have never runs out. They can use that for anything
Speaker 1: they want on campus in terms of food plans. I
Speaker 1: would also give them some kind of path to having
Speaker 1: free plane tickets to fly home for holidays and to
Speaker 1: deal with the family stuff that they may not get to.
Speaker 1: I would do everything humanly possible to make their life
Speaker 1: as manageable as possible as a student athlete. But the
Speaker 1: idea of paying players, of paying the you know, the
Speaker 1: backup kicker or the fourth string linebacker a minimum wage,
Speaker 1: it just doesn't resonate with me. Not when they are
Speaker 1: getting a scholarship that is valued at thirty or forty
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Yes, see, how do you determine, though, who
Speaker 1: gets free plane tickets home whenever they want. I think
Speaker 1: y'all do so, why is that plane ticket more reasonable
Speaker 1: for the fourth string linebacker? But seven to fifty an
Speaker 1: hour isn't it's I think it's just if it's just
Speaker 1: a plane ticket to wherever you need to go, it
Speaker 1: should be part of the student athlete package like that.
Speaker 1: That should just be part of it all. I don't
Speaker 1: know if it's it's probably worth more frankly than the No,
Speaker 1: maybe not. They're doing two seven fifty an hour or
Speaker 1: two or I don't know whatever the math is on that,
Speaker 1: but it's it's certainly valuable. I think everyone should have that.
Speaker 1: That should be all the money in the revenue they're
Speaker 1: bringing in. It should go towards plane tickets and meal
Speaker 1: plans and things that make life easier for student athletes,
Speaker 1: which is valuable to in an of itself. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: at the very least, it sounds more palatable than handing
Speaker 1: out gift cards or you know, envelopes of cash, or
Speaker 1: you know, just putting paychecks in their doorm mailboxes or
Speaker 1: something like that. Just proprie for I'd say a lot
Speaker 1: of the general public. That just seems like, at least
Speaker 1: if you have if you have a reason, you're sending
Speaker 1: someone to see the family, or you're sending them somewhere,
Speaker 1: whatever it is, that there's a specific reason why you're
Speaker 1: giving them that money, and they all get the same.
Speaker 1: I guess putting a paycheck in someone's mailbox doesn't sound
Speaker 1: reasonable to the general public. It's like how we all
Speaker 1: get paid. In terms of a student athlete that's already
Speaker 1: getting a thirty forty fifty thousand dollars ride for a school. Well, see,
Speaker 1: do you dismiss the value of the scholarship the scholarship,
Speaker 1: and no, I think the scholarship is great. The scott,
Speaker 1: I think people people need to start being a little
Speaker 1: bit more realistic and open minded. Of course, the scholarship
Speaker 1: is valuable and for everybody in the world, Like I
Speaker 1: failed out of college, all right, and it would have
Speaker 1: been a real shame to waste the scholarship if I
Speaker 1: had one, But yeah, scholarship would have been awesome. That
Speaker 1: would have been great. And for normal people, absolutely, there's
Speaker 1: tremendous value in that. And for the fourth string linebacker
Speaker 1: like you keep bringing up, Yeah, there's value in that
Speaker 1: for him too, because he's probably not going to the NFL.
Speaker 1: But there is a select group of people that are
Speaker 1: going pro and they're only there because they have to be,
Speaker 1: and they're different. They're completely different than the journalism student
Speaker 1: going to BC. They are not on the same planet, right,
Speaker 1: And I don't I don't see why I put in
Speaker 1: a couple of dollars in everybody's pocket. Is that revolutionary
Speaker 1: of an idea where somehow coordinating plane tickets for everybody
Speaker 1: sounds easier and more realistic? Like I don't, I don't
Speaker 1: get what about for the kid that goes to grew
Speaker 1: up in Ohio and goes to Ohio State and he
Speaker 1: doesn't fly home, he drives home. Does he get a
Speaker 1: free Greyhound buff ticket? Then at uber X you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Like, if you start putting out it's
Speaker 1: like it's kind of ridiculous, it's kind of absurd, whereas
Speaker 1: here's two hundred bucks a week for all your troubles
Speaker 1: practicing that. I mean that, how is that that heart
Speaker 1: of a concept for people to grasp? It's not hard
Speaker 1: to grasp it, just I just keep comparing it to
Speaker 1: the value of the scholarship and that that's almost like
Speaker 1: they're getting like do you not look at it? This way,
Speaker 1: like they're getting paid forty thousand dollars a year, Like
Speaker 1: you don't see it that way? No, No, I don't.
Speaker 1: Why not because the school is the school. The only
Speaker 1: reason those kids are being offered that forty thousand dollars
Speaker 1: a year and the scholarship is so the school can
Speaker 1: make tens of millions of dollars off of them off,
Speaker 1: well off of us. Elect you you're most guys that
Speaker 1: they pay the X knowledge for tuition are not driving
Speaker 1: revenue at all for them there. Many of them are
Speaker 1: not even playing at different times during their careers there.
Speaker 1: So I don't know. I just think that that amount
Speaker 1: of money has to be taken into account and all this.
Speaker 1: You're kind of turning me a little bit on the
Speaker 1: idea of like just fine, like give him seven fifteen
Speaker 1: hour or two undred bucks a week or just screw
Speaker 1: just say two and dollars a week for you know,
Speaker 1: for these guys don't even make it a minimum wage's
Speaker 1: give them some kind of snipend every single week. I
Speaker 1: just I like, I think going with the you know,
Speaker 1: guys getting paid off their own likenesses to step in
Speaker 1: the right direction. I want to see if that works
Speaker 1: and then see if it leads to anything from there yet,
Speaker 1: PAULI just remember that scholarship. They don't pay for your scholarship.
Speaker 1: They're not writing a check. They're basically letting you on
Speaker 1: a ride for free. They're letting you in the building
Speaker 1: for free and handing you a piece of paper when
Speaker 1: you're done. There's no mex to what do you call
Speaker 1: it enrollment at a college. No, there's not, but but
Speaker 1: there's room and board, and there's board. If you got
Speaker 1: to go to an elite university, you got to pay
Speaker 1: the teachers amount of money in tuition. And you know
Speaker 1: they don't max out classrooms I teach, you know a
Speaker 1: at a college, they're letting you have a diploma for
Speaker 1: free in education for free, but it's not coming out
Speaker 1: of anybody's pocket. No one else is not getting into
Speaker 1: school because those football players are that's true. They're additional inventory.
Speaker 1: And so they're handing you a free college education, but
Speaker 1: they're not paying for your college education. They're affoiding paying
Speaker 1: at all times. It works out great for the player.
Speaker 1: A degree is of important and should be valued, and
Speaker 1: you are saving that money, but they're not going into
Speaker 1: the pockets for anything else. And you bring in revenue
Speaker 1: to a school. Who who else in our country works
Speaker 1: for anything where they can bring in revenue and don't
Speaker 1: get minimum wage. That's true, that's true. But if you
Speaker 1: change your mind today, you've started to turn me around
Speaker 1: there a little bit. On the paying these guys. I
Speaker 1: have always been an advocate for the whole make money
Speaker 1: off your because I think because the star players, I
Speaker 1: mean they they they are selling the tickets like the
Speaker 1: you know, the stars of Clemston and LSU and all
Speaker 1: these guys, they are what people are are tuning in.
Speaker 1: Just like the money that what was that sec deal
Speaker 1: that they just made with ESPN, like worth just billions
Speaker 1: of dollars more specific that sorry whatever the SE's the
Speaker 1: one they took from CBS like that being the money
Speaker 1: that's worth That's all because of the star players, and
Speaker 1: they should be allowed to make as much money as
Speaker 1: humanly possible. That That's always been the top priority for
Speaker 1: me over anything else. I guess if you don't have
Speaker 1: a trickle down effect, they and change the rules completely,
Speaker 1: that's that's okay, But the top level guys need to
Speaker 1: get paid. The only way you could do something like that.
Speaker 1: And imagine if a conference of football players didn't show
Speaker 1: up in the late July. Imagine somehow if all the
Speaker 1: SEC football players, the biggest, most powerful conference, got the
Speaker 1: guy that said we don't walk on the campus until
Speaker 1: we get paid minimum wage. There's too much money floating
Speaker 1: around in the atmosphere that would be in flux, they
Speaker 1: would win that argument, right, So why doesn't that happen.
Speaker 1: You can't get a bunch of eighteen twenty one year
Speaker 1: old to organize on that kind of level. True, that's
Speaker 1: very true, especially ones that I mean, look, most people
Speaker 1: go to college football thinking that it's something some level.
Speaker 1: They do have a chance to get to the NFL,
Speaker 1: and they want to play. They want to prove themselves
Speaker 1: and get out of college and go make money being
Speaker 1: a linebacker for the Patriots or a quarterback for the
Speaker 1: forty nine ers. So it is difficult to get to
Speaker 1: be organized like that, all right, eight seven seven three

Speaker 1: Patrick dot com. If you have a take that makes
Speaker 1: sense of how NC DOUABAA players athletes are able to

Speaker 1: was gonna be here on a Friday, Meet Fridays outside
Speaker 1: Arcade Fire inside super Bowl next week got in Miami.
Speaker 1: Let's go. The boys were getting down to Miami, super
Speaker 1: Bowl week, busy week ahead. You know, I'm glad to
Speaker 1: get the cameras weren't rolling in the last five minutes.
Speaker 1: Pearl Off and I challenge PAULI and Seaton two a.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call it two hunch of game. It lasted
Speaker 1: about three seconds game one to a game to one point. Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, I didn't think the two of you
Speaker 1: would be running a play like you discussed the play
Speaker 1: like starting them alone. You set a high screen and
Speaker 1: pick and pop and Chris, I don't know what game
Speaker 1: you're talking about. I don't see any video footage, just
Speaker 1: said game. Thank you. Well, first of all, it was
Speaker 1: your fault. That was that was my fault. I was
Speaker 1: in the midst of turning around in my hat. I
Speaker 1: didn't even really I wasn't really trying to focus. I
Speaker 1: thought Seton Paul had a flair for the dramatic. It
Speaker 1: would do something cool for their one point, not just
Speaker 1: heating coming off a pick like the day. Yeah, Seton.
Speaker 1: There's one thing that Paul and I know for sure
Speaker 1: going into every time we've played these games is that
Speaker 1: you two are not going to be on the same page.
Speaker 1: That's the one thing I can tell you right about
Speaker 1: the next time you come here and we play that game,
Speaker 1: you two are not going to be on the same page.
Speaker 1: I'm terrible basketball. I'm fantastic of beating YouTube. All right,
Speaker 1: Polly said a pick on me. My back was turned
Speaker 1: and I was wandering off to the side, and Polly
Speaker 1: runs up and puts his chest into me for some
Speaker 1: bizarre reason. Time basket. He's a physical player, physical play.
Speaker 1: We do a video. Wonderful. Yeah, bang nailed it, drained it.
Speaker 1: We ran all later, threw the ball at um. I
Speaker 1: heard when the Steven pulls up. I hear Chris go
Speaker 1: no no, We're still yelling at each other as the
Speaker 1: ever stopped roll. That's a nice switch by you there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: good job, pathetic. Yeah, who were you covering? Just had
Speaker 1: a curiosity? Where were you? You were just standing there?
Speaker 1: Can you guys get me the YouTube link of this, Poe,
Speaker 1: So Paully was picking me, Seaton was wide open. You
Speaker 1: were not within seven feet of Paul. He was presumably
Speaker 1: your man. So who did you decide to cover there?
Speaker 1: I went under the screen. See the problem is you
Speaker 1: guys set up a system. You played a one, you're
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna win. You played eleven, you're going to
Speaker 1: beat us eleven. I'm dissects now. Uh yeah, that's my fault.
Speaker 1: So here they Paula. He's been practicing this Bruce Bowen
Speaker 1: baseline jumper every day this week, and he's like he
Speaker 1: thinks he's unstoppable for right there. I thought that they
Speaker 1: were going to work to get that shot. Now, that
Speaker 1: was probably my fault. Eaton can do that anytime he wants. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't even take that into account. Eli Manning just
Speaker 1: spoke moments ago in New York explaining his retirement. Here's
Speaker 1: why he says he's choosing now to retire from the NFL. Well,
Speaker 1: I think it was important to me to go out
Speaker 1: as a giant. And uh I think when you come,
Speaker 1: when you get drafted and you come to an organization,
Speaker 1: I think that's always your goal to stay with one
Speaker 1: organization in your entire career. Uh do you get towards
Speaker 1: the end of it. It doesn't always work out that way,
Speaker 1: and you still have, you know, desires to play sometime.
Speaker 1: But I think it was important, um the fans, this organization,
Speaker 1: this family, um to call it, to call it a
Speaker 1: career and to end it instead of trying to uproot
Speaker 1: my family and lead. Yeah. Look, he's accomplished a lot
Speaker 1: two Stuper Bowl wins. Might as well retire with one
Speaker 1: organization and go off and potentially have a TV career

Speaker 1: of people be tuned in for that. I let's go
Speaker 1: around the room. What did we learn today? Why don't
Speaker 1: we start with you, Todd? Fritz Seaton sold his plasma
Speaker 1: twice a week back and cons had a little spending money.
Speaker 1: I thought that was awesome. I've been working with him
Speaker 1: many years. Never heard that, you go. I learned that
Speaker 1: Paully and Seaton's pick and roll unstoppable stopped in him alone.
Speaker 1: I learned that the hard way, just moments ago, Seaton.
Speaker 1: I learned Todd's sense of what's awesome is severely warped.
Speaker 1: If he thinks killing your plasma once a week is great.
Speaker 1: I just think that was very cool. He's what we
Speaker 1: learned to getting picked up by the fly. Yeah, Paully
Speaker 1: Todd had a big loss. He lost to a pair
Speaker 1: of tongs outside of the pantio. He tried to open
Speaker 1: a pair of tongs that were locked in place like
Speaker 1: all tongs are, and it took him eight minutes. I've
Speaker 1: never seen lock tongs before. It all everyone has to
Speaker 1: earny writing position for pickures. Never used those either. You're
Speaker 1: the adult in this problem with the child safety locks.

Speaker 1: in Uncle way shock. The idea of to Whight Howard
Speaker 1: and JaVale McGee wanting to fight you. Okay, this came up,
Speaker 1: by the way on on Danny Green Past and it
Speaker 1: is um, I guess Dwight Howard said quote. I was like,
Speaker 1: uh to Javaial, hey, man, did you want to fight Shack?
Speaker 1: And he was like, man, I did. I didn't too.
Speaker 1: But then there's two things we got to worry about.
Speaker 1: He's a cop, so if we heard him, we're going
Speaker 1: to jail hell out of here. You and Jack gets
Speaker 1: a hold of either one of them, but yeah, but
Speaker 1: it just speaks to my leadership abilities. Because of what
Speaker 1: I did is I made them become good players and
Speaker 1: exactly what I wanted, Exactly what happened to me. Wild
Speaker 1: training and crony made me so freaking that well, I
Speaker 1: don't want to fight them because of the respect to
Speaker 1: have them. See, these young guys don't have respect for
Speaker 1: the elders. But they made me so mad. I said, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make y'all remember my name, and uh, I'm
Speaker 1: noticing their name. You know, Javelle has a couple of
Speaker 1: championships under this belt. But that's what you welcome. I
Speaker 1: did that. That's what I do. I make people so
Speaker 1: pissed off they want to fight me. Kobe wanted to
Speaker 1: fight me. How many rings you gotta be, dog, mister refreshments?
Speaker 1: I wait a minute, now, rings I got? You have four? Okay, no,
Speaker 1: but how many rings you mean? Kobe had? I got
Speaker 1: three exactly. So that's what a leader does. I ruffle feathers.
Speaker 1: I know what the hell I'm doing. I know they're playing,
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying that what I did to ruffle
Speaker 1: the feathers made them Okay, player, Javelle has two rings
Speaker 1: in the way. If they keep playing, he's gonna have
Speaker 1: a ring. And all I can say is you welcome.
