In the Bucks game, six Hawks over 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 1: the seventy sixers last night, and the Hawks the Pesky 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: Hawks are up three games to two in this series. 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,479 Speaker 1: Clippers over the Jazz. Typical Clippers. Yeah, they're not gonna 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: win this game, and then they do. They're up three 10 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: games to two in the series. Come up with the 11 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: poll question, play of the day, stat of the day, 12 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: Say good morning to our TV partner, that's Peacock, our 13 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: streaming service, download the app watch on three hours for free, 14 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: and our radio affiliates around the country. Of course, the 15 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio lineup iHeart Radio as well. The gang 16 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: is here. If last night seventy Sixers Jazz losses taught 17 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: us anything, it's the number one seed doesn't mean that much. 18 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: Both teams were at home. Both teams favored seventy Sixers 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: blew a twenty six point lead. Jazz couldn't take advantage 20 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: of a Clippers team that didn't have Kawhi Leonard. These 21 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: games are a reminder that the playoffs are a whole 22 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: different ballgame than the regular season. Philadelphia is trying to 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: hide Ben simmons poor free throw shooting in the regular season, 24 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: and they did a pretty good job. But in the playoffs, oh, 25 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: it's front and center. We'll hear from Ben coming up 26 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: in a moment. The Jazz a great three point shooting 27 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: team during the regular season, and they were last night 28 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 1: in the first half. They were seventeen of thirty from 29 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: three point range in the first half. That's what teams 30 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: do for an entire game. But the Clippers were only 31 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: down five and a halftime thanks to Paul George. That's 32 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: what I thought was really telling. The Jazz were doing 33 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: what the Jazz did during the regular season, and it 34 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: didn't matter. The Clippers weren't going away seventeen threes in 35 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: the first half three in the second half. Now neither 36 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: series is over. Can you count on the Clippers to 37 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: close out the Jazz game six? What about the Hawks? 38 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: Can they close out the seventy sixers. We'll see how 39 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: both of these teams respond to the pressure or if 40 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: they're going to blow a great opportunity to have a 41 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: deep postseason run. You got the Nets who were sort 42 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: of on the ropes a little bit. The Lakers aren't 43 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: in there. This is wide open, and there's going to 44 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 1: be some coaches, some gms, some owners who say, we 45 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: had a great opportunity. We missed an opportunity here to 46 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 1: try to slip in and maybe steal an NBA championship 47 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: eight seven seven three DP show email IDs TP at 48 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. We'll 49 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: start with the seventy Sixers blowing that lead. Here's Doc Rivers, 50 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: the seventy sixers head coach. Listen, we score nineteen points 51 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: and gave up forty. So it's on us, It's on 52 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: all of us, is on me, it's on the players, 53 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: and we have to figure out how to get back up. 54 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: Would we will and bring this game back here for 55 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: Game seven? And then you have Ben Simmons, who finally 56 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: admitted but most of his thought when it comes to 57 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 1: shooting free throws, even though you've never been the best 58 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: free throw shooter, do you feel at this problem at 59 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 1: this point your problem is more mental than the form. Definitely. 60 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: I think mental. No, we were up, we had it. 61 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: I think we just gave it some We got too 62 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: comfortable and didn't play the way we should be playing. 63 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: When you say it's mental, that's big. He's four or 64 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: fourteen from the line. He was twenty two for sixty 65 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: seven for the playoffs. That's thirty two percent in NBA history. 66 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: Among the players who have attempted at least forty free 67 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: throws in the postseason, only Ben Wallace has a worst 68 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: postseason free throw percentage, and he shot twenty seven percent. 69 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: Stead of your day, stat of the day, that beast 70 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: stat of the day, stat of the day he comes 71 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: that what stat of the day. Can't be a superstar 72 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: in a liability, you can't. And that's what you have 73 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: with Ben Simmons. I know Doc Rivers is trying to 74 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: say the right things about Ben Simmons, and for everybody 75 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: who tells me, you know, he's unique, and he puts 76 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: pressure on the defense and he can get to the 77 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: hoop and he can. First of all, he's like Lonzo Ball. 78 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 1: He's a taller, left handed version of Lonzo Ball. In fact, 79 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: Lonzo might be a better shooter than him. But he's 80 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 1: a liability because he doesn't want to take it to 81 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: the hoop now, because he doesn't want to get fouled. 82 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to go to the free throw line. 83 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: He hurts you in a variety of ways. Here. Oh, 84 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: he's a walking mismatch. He's like magic. He can take 85 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: over a game, doesn't have to score. I haven't seen it. 86 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: Hey can rebound and he can pass and Okay, but 87 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: he's a liability and maybe he's just a good player. 88 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: He's not great. Good. Joe Lmbid is great. But the 89 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: mental part of this is sad because I don't root 90 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: for root against Ben Simmons. You know, I want to 91 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: see great players be great. But when it gets to 92 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: be mental, that's different. And we've seen this before. We've 93 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 1: seen athletes who it gets to them. It happens in 94 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: golf all the time. You know. Quarterbacks they see ghosts, 95 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: they see things that aren't there. Baseball players, hey, I 96 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: can't even throw the ball over to first base from 97 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: second base. I can't throw it back to the pitcher. 98 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: I'm on the mount. I can't throw it to the catcher. 99 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: The mental aspect of this is something very very serious. 100 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: Now it's just free throws, but it metastasizes, it becomes 101 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: more than that, and then on you know, when you 102 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: get to the playoffs. Now, everybody sees it. If Ben 103 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: Simmons goes four for fourteen from the line during a 104 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: regular season game against the Hawks in February, no one cares. 105 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: Suddenly everybody cares. And for him to say it's mental, 106 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: it's one thing to think it, it's another thing to 107 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: say it.

You were the franchise player in Indiana, 113 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City. You finish top three MVP one year, and 114 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: you lived in Kawai's shadow. There was no Kawai, no shadow, 115 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: and he was wonder full last night. Here is Paul 116 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: George after last night's win. There was just no secret 117 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: coming into this. Once Mays trust me, Tlu trusted me, 118 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: and you know, I thought, we just we lived in 119 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: a moment and we just played our hearts all tonight. Yeah. 120 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: I give him credit, you know, he kept him. I thought. 121 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: The reason why they won this game is because Paul 122 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: George was wonderful in the first half. He didn't let 123 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: the Jazz build up an insurmountable lead. At home, Bamily 124 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: led by five and a half time. You know, Marcus Morris, 125 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: he had another great game. He had twenty five postseason 126 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: career high. Reggie Jackson once again, Terrence Mann, this is 127 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: what you need. I don't know if Kauai is going 128 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: to be able to play in this series. I think 129 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: that's still up in the air. And I give Tylu 130 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: a lot of credit because I think he's great at 131 00:07:55,600 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: adjusting in a game. And if it's lineups, matchups. I 132 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: thought they exposed Rudy Gobert. Like it's weird when you 133 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: say somebody's the defensive player of the year, but he's 134 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: not a factor, you know. Ben Simmons, Oh, he should 135 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: be up there for defensive player of the year. Is 136 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: he really a factor? Like it seems like it's a 137 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: silly award. Hey, he's the defensive player of the year. 138 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: All right, We're just gonna run a pick and roll 139 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: and then we'll take advantage of that. We'll neutralize him. 140 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: And that's what they've done. Ben Simmons, he's a great defender, 141 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: can he guard Trey Young. Well, you know, no, not really, 142 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: Philadelphia can't guard these small guys. And by the way, 143 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: this isn't just on Ben Simmons. It's an embarrassment. Tobias Harris. 144 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: You're getting paid big boy bucks. Joe Wellenbat is out 145 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: there playing his hard out and probably shouldn't be out there, 146 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: gonna need knee surgery. But somebody's got to want to 147 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: be the second best player on the floor for the 148 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: Philadelphia seventy six ers. I mean, come on, you gotta 149 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: get somebody to step up. And the Hawks aren't going 150 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: away like once again, they don't know enough to be 151 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: overmatched or nervous in a situation like that. They haven't 152 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: been here. They're like, hey, let's go out, let's play. 153 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: When you're down that many points and you come back. 154 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: It says a lot about both of these teams. And 155 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: Doc Rivers love Doc, known Doc since he played in Atlanta. 156 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: But Doc has got a resume of, you know, these 157 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: kind of games in the postseason. He won the title 158 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: with the Celtics and that kind of washed away everything 159 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: prior to it. But last night, you can't hold on 160 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: to a twenty six point lead. This happened a lot 161 00:09:55,320 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: of times when he was with the Clippers. No, but 162 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: that was some interesting basketball last night. I stopped watching 163 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: the Hawks in the seventy sixers. I think I tuned in. 164 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: There might have been two minutes to go, and I went, 165 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,599 Speaker 1: you got to be kidding me. I thought it was 166 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: a mere formality. And then all of a sudden, you 167 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: watched the start of the Jazz and the Clippers, and 168 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: the Jazz are just shooting the lights out, and I thought, 169 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: can they continue to do that as a team? Ken 170 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: Paul George continued to do that as an individual, and 171 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: I was betting on the Jazz doing that. And you're 172 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: at home the seventy Sixers, you're at home. Both of 173 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: these franchises could look back on these performances in Game 174 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 1: five and say, what hell just happened? Card carrying member 175 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: of the seventy six Ers fan club mclovin, you've been 176 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: quiet all morning long? Yeah, that was you know, I 177 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: flirt with other teams like the Bucks in the nets, 178 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: but that was painful. Last night brought back a lot 179 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: of NFC Championship game meltdowns, a lot of Philadelphia losses 180 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: through the years. You know what, you bring up Philadelphia 181 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: NFC title games. Andy Reid winning a Super Bowl wiped 182 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: away all those losses he had. What was he one 183 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: in five in the NFC title game? I think he's 184 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: one in four four, but actually he could be one 185 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: in five. Yeah, maybe there might have been a later 186 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: one too, but yeah, you're right. Actually I think you're right. 187 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: I'll double check that. But it was it felt like 188 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: same old Philly. You know, there was that feel. But 189 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: you know, Philadelphia fans are much more comfortable in this 190 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: position than actually winning games. They're not good front runners here. 191 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: I have a pole question which of the three teams 192 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: is kicking themselves some most the Bucks losing to the 193 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: Nets without our irving, the Sixers for losing the Hawks, 194 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: or the Jazz for losing to the Kawhilist Clipperson Yung pol. 195 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna go Jazz. Maybe it's just recency, 196 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: but the Jazz at home not facing Kawhi Leonard. They've 197 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: had a very good regular season. They look healthy Mitchell 198 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: blah blah blah, and it looks like how I mean 199 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: that playing the rest of the series, and they don't 200 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: have the face of Lakers. If they get past the Clippers. 201 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: This would be a really tough one. I don't think 202 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell is healthy. I think the ankle is bothering him. 203 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: I saw that on a jump shot last night where 204 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: he came down. He winced. He made it, but he winced. 205 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: You don't have Mike Conley in there, but you're at home. 206 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: You should still beat a Clipper team that is, you know, 207 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: we don't know what Clipper team is going to show up. 208 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: And Paul George steps up and has a big game. 209 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: Although I think he's played pretty well, and I even 210 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: go back to the bubble, I'm sympathetic to this. You know, 211 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: depression is no joke, and I and I don't look 212 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: at it and go, oh, come on, suck it up, 213 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: get tough. He was affected in the during the pandemic 214 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: in the bubble, and he said that he had to 215 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: talk to his therapist. Now, you never heard this before 216 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: from any athlete until recently. You know, Kevin Love kind 217 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: of exposed us to this. Run our test, you know, 218 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall, the NFL wide receiver, and Paul George was honest. 219 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: He said, look, I'm I'm having problems in here, and 220 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: to do what he's doing, and he's played well and 221 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: maybe he continues to play well. Sometimes when you have 222 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: a better player or the star player, you don't know 223 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: how to act like you're still kind of figuring out 224 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: what do I need to do? Where do I need 225 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: to be? And I think that this is something that 226 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,479 Speaker 1: Paul George is still trying to figure out because Kawhi, 227 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: you know, Kawai takes over in the postseason. Paul George, 228 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: you know, is a complimentary player, but he in his 229 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: mind still thinks he's an elite player. Now he's proven 230 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: that recently. But last night he didn't have to worry 231 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: about Kawai. It was let me just go out there, 232 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: let me, let me have the ball. I'm going to 233 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: be the man here, and he played well that way. 234 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: Scottie Pippin was always comfortable playing in Michael's shadow, like 235 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: what do you need me to do? I'll do it. 236 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: Not everybody's like that, you know, Duane Wade let Lebron 237 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: take over the Miami Heat, like you have to have that. 238 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: And with Paul George last night, it was just I 239 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: don't need to defer to anybody. I'm taking shots. I'm 240 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: the man. Run ISOs for me and I'm going to 241 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: win this for us. Then you saw that last night. 242 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: All right, we'll get to phone calls.

He's got his quarterback rankings guaranteed 245 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: to upset some quarterbacks there. And also what's going on 246 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: certainly with Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers and the Miami 247 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: Dolphins with two a ton of Ioloa throwing five interceptions 248 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: in practice.

Dan? 278 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: Good Sir Good, I was just gonna say, yeah, Doc 279 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: Rivers Man. Speaking of Doc Rivers, he does man in 280 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: the playoffs. He loses a lot of twenty point leads Man. 281 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: I was highly surprised if Philly hired him. I mean, 282 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, I love Doctor as a person. He's a 283 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: great guy. You know, I watch what he does. He's 284 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: a great person. Buddy. Coaches passed their prying too, Dan. 285 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: And before I go Andy Reid, you mentioned Andy reid Man. 286 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: Was that the fastest fire re hire in NFL history 287 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: as an NFL coach. I remember going to a vacation, 288 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 1: he got fired, and I came back from vacation and 289 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 1: he was hired. I call what Andy Reeves got a 290 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: great reputation in the NFL. He gets to the NFC 291 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: title games. Now you can say, well he doesn't win those. 292 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: You know a lot of these owners will say, I'll 293 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: take getting to the NFC title game, AFC title game. 294 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of franchises that would accept that. But 295 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: I think with Andy winning a Super Bowl wipes away 296 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: all of those NFC title game losses, Doc Rivers winning 297 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: that one, NBA Finals wiped away a lot of this. 298 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts winning a World Series, Clayton Kershawn winning a 299 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: World Series, then you wipe away what's happened previously. I 300 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: should be talking more basketball, but Chris Simms, Pro Football 301 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: Talk Live co host, has got his quarterback list. And 302 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: I'm always fascinated with this because Simms is not afraid. 303 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: He'll put out this list top forty quarter backs. And 304 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: he's down to his top five, actually down to his 305 00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: top four, because I'm looking at the list here. Russell 306 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: Wilson is five, Lamar Jackson six, Kyler Murray seven, Matthew 307 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: Stafford eight, Dak Prescott nine, Tom Brady is ten. It's 308 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: bring in Chris Sims from Pro Football Talk Live. All right, 309 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: give me the criteria for how you set up the rankings, Chris, Sure, 310 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: I gotta you know, forty quarterbacks. It's basically my depth chart, Dan, 311 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: That's how I do it. Everybody's playing on the same team. 312 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: We're not taking the advantages of oh, this guy has 313 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: this or this coach or whatever. You know, it's the 314 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: same team. It's the same coaches. And here's my depth 315 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: chart one through forty going into the twenty twenty one season. 316 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: All right, we have some we have some questions here. Sure, 317 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: who wants to start, PAULI, I'll let you start with Simms. 318 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: I don't know how obvious I want to go here. 319 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: I guess obviously. So I have a better chance to 320 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: win with Matthew Stafford is my quarterback than Tom Brady 321 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: is my quarterback. Well, yeah, I do believe that. Listen, 322 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: Brady hey leadership. You know what he brought to that team. 323 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: It's really special. And I took that all into account. 324 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 1: In fact, I bumped him up in front of people 325 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: where I would go, they're more talented, they can do 326 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: more on the field than he can. But for that 327 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: scenario and what he did with Tampa, he was the 328 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: perfect fit. They needed polish down there and all those 329 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: type of things. Yes, okay, but at the same time, 330 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: there's a lot of issues in like Tom Brady's game 331 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 1: is not perfect, you know, and Matthew Stafford. Don't get 332 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: so blinded by you know, Detroit Lions and their record 333 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: and everything like that. That's the only thing I would 334 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: argue with you there is I mean, who did you 335 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: think Detroit was supposed to beat last year? What on 336 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: their roster was really that special that you think matt 337 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 1: Stafford was supposed to look so great and do all 338 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: those type of things. You know, y'all can look at 339 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and go, hey, they lost five losses in 340 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: the regular season. You can legitimately look at all five 341 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: and go the main culprit and all five losses was 342 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, let alone the NFC Championship game and those 343 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 1: issues too. So Brady's awesome, His arm is still awesome. 344 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 1: He makes very few plays off of schedule. He needs 345 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: a certain type of support system around him. Right now, 346 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: as to where I look at some of these other 347 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: guys and go, they don't need it, and they can 348 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 1: still make things happen and go that way. It's a 349 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: tough one, and I know that's the one that everybody 350 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: looks at it and nobody's happy unless I make Brady 351 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: one or two. That's the only thing I can make happy, 352 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: make everybody happy. Now, I wouldn't put him there, but 353 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: I would. I would put him ahead. You put him 354 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: ahead of those guys, Yeah, yeah, I would. Sure. You 355 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: don't like Jared Goff at all, man, you got you 356 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: got him thirty one, You got three rookies ahead of him, 357 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: you got Jamis Winston, it, you got Taysom Hill ahead 358 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: of Jared Goff. Yeah, you know Jared Goff. You know, 359 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: tell me what am I signing up for? You know? 360 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: Is it? Sean mcvay's offense. I don't know, but I 361 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 1: mean again, with Jared goff there's experience, certainly, but not 362 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: the experience where I would like to see it to 363 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: be for a guy that's played as long as he 364 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: has and been to the Super Bowl. You know, there's 365 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: just too many plays when you watch it and reevaluate 366 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: where I go man, bad decision, you know, not understanding 367 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: the full scope of the game. Hey, it's a bootleg. 368 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 1: It's third and one. You know, nobody's open and go 369 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: run for the first down and he throws the ball 370 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: away or like tries to throw the ball into double coverage. 371 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,959 Speaker 1: You know that that to me concerns me, let alone, 372 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: like not great ability, you know, nothing he does off 373 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: schedule to help the football team that way, not a 374 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: top tier thrower the football. And you know, yeah, so yes, 375 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: I look at it that way. And let's not forget Dan. 376 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: They were doing everything they could in life to start 377 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,159 Speaker 1: John Wolford at the end of the year. They did 378 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: not want to start Jared Goffry that was because the 379 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: play was not good. So you know, yeah, that's that's 380 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: where I stand with him right now. All right, mclove 381 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: and your question for Sims, Okay, you have Kyler Murray 382 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: at number seven the Cardinals quarter back. If he's the 383 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: seventh best quarterback, and he has all these Hall of 384 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: famers everywhere on this roster and all this hound, how 385 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: come nobody thinks the Cardinals are gonna do anything this year. 386 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: I've generally considered the fourth best team in that division. Yeah, 387 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: I agreed, you know, but it's not all about the quarterback. 388 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: You know, let's let's let's stop that stop. You know, mclovan, 389 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: I know, you know, he makes them considerably better in 390 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,719 Speaker 1: my opinion. You know, they're one of the top rushing 391 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 1: offenses in football, not because they're all line is greater, 392 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: the running backs great. It's because Kyler Murray's unbelievable as scrambling, 393 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: the threat he has to run with the quarterback design 394 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: run plays or the read options that opens up everything. 395 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm not sure, so sure. He's not like the most 396 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: responsible out of like all quarterbacks as far as improving 397 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: their offense or making it look a lot better than 398 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: it really is. You know, their scheme itself is nothing special. 399 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: I break this down on my podcast all the time. 400 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: You know, we do DeAndre Hopkins his route combinations. I mean, 401 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: it's it's limited, it's a lot of that spread four wide. 402 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 1: It's a little predictable, and he is the reason it goes. 403 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 1: So yeah, we'll see can aj Green help them out? 404 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,959 Speaker 1: You know, we'll see if Larry Fitzgerald plays and all 405 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:14,239 Speaker 1: those things. But he's a special, special talent that you know, 406 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 1: it's hard to almost quantify his effect on the game 407 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: or qualify it, you know, through stats, because of the 408 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: pressure he does put on your defense, because of his 409 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: skill set. Yes, time, you got a question, So, Chris, 410 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: you have Drew Locke at thirty three, a lot higher 411 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: up on the board than I thought. So there's some 412 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: positivity I should have. If they can't get Aaron Rodgers, 413 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: there's hope for Denver to chase Kansas City. Drew Locke has, 414 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: like Fritzie, some big time, top end talent. Like I 415 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: excited about the positives. If we've sat all down together 416 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: and watched Drew Locke the positives, we'd all go, whoa, whoa, 417 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: man here, you're right. He is a little better, makes 418 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: a little more, you know, makes more plays than I thought. 419 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: He does have an explosive arm. He is a pretty 420 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 1: good athlete. The big thing, as you know, Fritzie, because 421 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: I know you're a Broncos fan. He's got to take 422 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: that like Brett Fard element out of his game. Not 423 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: every throw has to be a twenty five yard laser 424 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: in between four people to fit it in there. And 425 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: that's enough. That's enough talk about the Broncos. Okay, shut 426 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: it off, Fritzie. Uh, you got Ryan Tannehill ahead of 427 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. Ryan Tannehill at number twelve, Baker Mayfield. And 428 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: do you like Baker Mayfield? Do you just tolerate Baker Mayfield. No, 429 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: I do like Baker Mayfield. I do to me. Last 430 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: year it was a huge year for him, like showed progress, 431 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: like maturity on and off the field. And the one 432 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: thing that just really pop to me was how many 433 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: high level, high degree of difficulty throws Baker Mayfield made 434 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: during the year, especially the second half of the year. 435 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: You know, he's got a great innate ability to wear. 436 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: I don't call him a great runner, but he's a 437 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 1: great mover. You know, he hops around the pocket and 438 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: he can make throws kind of from weird angles or 439 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,679 Speaker 1: he's got a bootleg and the defense ends there to 440 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: get him and he kind of makes a move and 441 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: breaks his ankle and still gets to throw where you know, 442 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: he's running full speed on a bootleg and there's Jarvis 443 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: Landry twenty five yards down field and he's opened by 444 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: three inches and man, he rips it in there and 445 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 1: doesn't think twice and throws it perfectly. So it's an 446 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: offense that's not necessarily always quarterback friendly. With all these 447 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 1: crazy things they do. They ask their quarterback to make 448 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 1: big time explosive throws and he fix his mechanics. Last 449 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: year he played the game better and he made a 450 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: number of big time plays to help their team win 451 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: football games. We're talking to Chris Sims Pro Football Talk Live. 452 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: Is number one on the list going to be controversial? No, No, 453 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: I will say my top four. As you know, I 454 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: have not revealed that yet, and that will be Monday, 455 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: and if you guys want to have me back next 456 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: week to talk about or whatever, I do think there's 457 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 1: gonna be one here in the top four that's gonna 458 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: people are gonna go WHOA. Okay, So that's all I'll 459 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: say to that to tease it. But this is a 460 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: it's a tough exercise, as you can imagine. I'm just 461 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: setting myself to get crapped on by everybody, and I 462 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: deal with it every year. But you know, you ask 463 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: for this, christ I do well. An NBC asked me 464 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: to do it. I don't ask. I don't go, hey, 465 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,400 Speaker 1: let's do it. But it's part of what I do, 466 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: and I do enjoy it to a degree. It helps 467 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: me get better feel for the quarterbacks and and you know, 468 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 1: kind of have that jump off point for the next year. 469 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 1: And the other thing you realized, Dan, there's a lot 470 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: of damn good quarterbacks in football right now. A lot 471 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: of them, there really is. And it's it's about the 472 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: support system and to see how good they're gonna be. 473 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: You've got to a tongue of Ioloa. Thirty fourth. Yeah, 474 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: there's only thirty two teams, So he's not good enough 475 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: to start in your opinion, Well, he's not one of 476 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: the thirty two best of the way I see it 477 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, there's question mark certainly. I mean you 478 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,239 Speaker 1: saw last year again it was good, but they had 479 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 1: a micro manage him, you know, and then whenever they 480 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 1: had to let it loose, we gotta take him out. 481 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: We gotta put Ryan Fitzpatrick in. He's admitted he didn't 482 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: know the offense as well. He didn't make that many 483 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: plays with his right arm or anything like that, you know. So, yeah, 484 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions, you know, and it's 485 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: that's the one that seems to be the most polarizing. 486 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: People think I hate too. I root for him. I 487 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,919 Speaker 1: like the guy's charismatic as hell, there's no doubt about it. 488 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,479 Speaker 1: But yeah, there's nothing to write home about last year 489 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: to where I go. Man, that's special and I'm I'm 490 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: he's ready to jump into the top twenty. I gotta 491 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: see more and to believe that. So Mahomes will be one. Um, 492 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 1: you're funny. Aaron Rodgers is two. I'm not telling you anything. 493 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: What about what about his mindset? Is he totally committed 494 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: to playing football here? I don't know. You'll have to 495 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: you know what you'll have to do. He's in love, 496 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: he wants to do Jeopardy. I don't know where is 497 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: his mind? Well, maybe Chris Simms took that into account, 498 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 1: and maybe you should watch my podcast on Monday and 499 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: I'll explain all these answers to you. Where is DeShawn 500 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: Watson He's not even on the board. Well, he's gonna 501 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: be in those top four. He is he's coming up. Yeah, 502 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: I mean I'm not avoiding him right now. I mean, 503 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: I know, you got to Shaun Watson one of the 504 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: top four quarterbacks in the NFL right now, Yes, I do, yes, 505 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: without a doubt, no doubt. Yes, he is a superstar. 506 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's gonna be there, Aaron run Patrick. Yeah, you 507 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: got the four that are left, Okay, Yeah, Watson probably 508 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: had the best year of his career last year. Now, 509 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,719 Speaker 1: it didn't translate to wins or losses. Yeah, I get that, 510 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: but I mean it's horrible defense, no run game, no receivers. 511 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: You know, they were highly competitive in a lot of 512 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: games where I'd go, man, if they didn't have DeShawn Watson, 513 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: this game would be forty to seven, they would be 514 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: getting killed. And here they were in the fourth quarter 515 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: with a chance to win. Or you know, somebody snaps 516 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: the ball low when he's on the one yard line. 517 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: You know, he can't do everything, so uh, that's that's 518 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: part of the exercise. Is tough. But yeah, I look 519 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: at Watson is certainly being one of the four best 520 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league right now. I think you jumped 521 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: on my Matthew Stafford bandwagon. MVP choice. Well, I think 522 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:14,239 Speaker 1: you did. I'm excited for Stafford because Stafford has been 523 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: in like my top ten almost every year I do 524 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: this and people always just can't get over it, and it's, 525 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: you know again, it's just men, bad offense, no great 526 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: offensive coordinators. His whole career. I know he had Megatron. 527 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,959 Speaker 1: It was him and Megatron. Apparently those two were supposed 528 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: to win every game by themselves. I get that. You know, 529 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: no thousand yard rushers. The talent is real. It's one 530 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: of the greatest arms ever. It's still one of the 531 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: most game changing arms we've ever seen, and still at 532 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: this point it is. And I think this year now 533 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: with the support mcvey's offense, some receivers a run game. 534 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: I hear you, like, that's to me the smart bet. 535 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: If you want to bet low and get a huge 536 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: grand prize or MVP, Matt Stafford be one of those. 537 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: I would recommend anybody. You've got Ben Roethlisberger down the list. Here. 538 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: Should the Steeler have made Should they have drafted a 539 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: quarterback first round instead of a running back? Yeah, it's 540 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 1: it's tough, you know where they were sitting there. Of course, 541 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: that they would have had to have made some sort 542 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: of move to get a quarterback. I think that's why 543 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: they did sign Dwayne Haskins in the offseason to take it, 544 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: you know, let's take a deeper look at him. Maybe 545 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: he could be the guy in the future. But I 546 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: think ultimately Dan with like Pittsburgh, they looked at it like, wait, 547 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: we're closer to the top than the bottom. This is 548 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: not a rebuild. Our team is kind of ready. And 549 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: I would imagine and it sounds like if you listen 550 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: to anything they're saying, they gotta be looking at Tampa. 551 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: Look at Tampa. You know, would Brady you know, yeah, 552 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: you got some good receivers. You can't ask Ben to 553 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: throw the ball, you know, every play forty five times 554 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: a game and then not be able to run or 555 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: scare anybody else with that. So they got to got 556 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: to go to that formula. In my opinion, run the ball, 557 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: play action, protect him up. He doesn't have to worry, 558 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: and he'll still dice you up with his right arm, 559 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: but he's not gonna make plays or carry the team anymore. 560 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: If they're going to ask him to be in the 561 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: shotgun and do it that way all game long, that's 562 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: good to talk to you again always, and I hope 563 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: you get a whole lot of grief coming up next week. 564 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: Oh don't worry. I think it's you know, it's peaked. 565 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: I honestly, there's the crazy thing. When I made Brady ten, 566 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 1: I was like, man, people will probably be happy about this. 567 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: This is good. It get some people off my back. 568 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: Either think it's the worst reaction I've gotten in the years. 569 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: Out of anybody, I am getting absolutely killed. What's the 570 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: worst reaction you had gotten prior to putting Tom Brady 571 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: tenth on your list? Well, I mean it's probably another 572 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, you know, ranking of like putting him at 573 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: nine a few years ago or something like that. It's 574 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,959 Speaker 1: usually that between the New England Fairs. Still upset because 575 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: you were there as a teammate of Tom Brady's jealous 576 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 1: of Tom. That's what everybody says. I know I was jealous, 577 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: he was mean to me, all those type of things, 578 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: and nobody can believe that I actually really like the guy. 579 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: I have tremendous respect. But yes, that's the way I 580 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: see it. At age forty three, where he is right now, 581 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: He's still awesome, obviously, can win a super Bowl. But 582 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: I don't think he's as good or better than some 583 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 1: of those guys I got in front of him. No, 584 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: I don't thank you Chris, Thank you Dan, be good guys, 585 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: say that's Chris Sims.

They're getting ready to tef Tory Pines US Open. Yeah, 618 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,839 Speaker 1: Michelson's out there. I got a Phil Mickelson related question 619 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,919 Speaker 1: for you, and pretend you're Phil. I think he has 620 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: three Masters wins, two PGA wins, British Open or the 621 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: Open championshipe one once he's finished tied for second in 622 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: the US Open, I think six times. This is his 623 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: home course. He's fifty one years old. If I gave 624 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson a deal, you could win this US Open 625 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: at your home course, but you are somehow injured late 626 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: in the round and you don't really play competitive golf again, 627 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: maybe senior store or whatever, but your career is basically over. 628 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: You could sign up for winning the US Open now, 629 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: or you could take your chance. So he'd get to 630 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: career Grand Slam home course, but he doesn't get to 631 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: play competitively on the PGA Tour again. Yeah, it's kind 632 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 1: of over. He moves on to being one of those 633 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 1: seniors golfers. Now. We pose this question years ago to 634 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: Kurt Schilling. You asked him if he could be healthy 635 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: for the World Series pitch, win it for the Red Sox, 636 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: rip up his ankle, and never play baseball again. He goes, 637 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: sign me up, give me the sheet. So what do 638 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: you think I would think that Nicholson would take that, 639 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: just take the deal, not take his chances that he 640 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: would he would take the title, that he would take 641 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: the US Open, and he doesn't play competitively again on 642 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour. Then you got the career Grand Slam. 643 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: You finally won the US Open. Yes, mclohan right. If 644 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: it was any other tournaments, hey, I said, if I 645 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: give you next year's PGA, he wouldn't do it. But 646 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 1: this circumstances because he's had so much heartbreak and this 647 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: is his home course and to be able to win 648 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: and go back to back off the p J Championship, yeah, 649 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: like he probably would. I think getting that career Grand 650 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: Slam is really important. You know, you have Rory that 651 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: we've been waiting for him to do it. But but 652 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,839 Speaker 1: at his age, at age fifty one, yeah, see, it's 653 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: just to play a devil's advocate. Do you think he's 654 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: really thinking this weekend would be it? You know what 655 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,479 Speaker 1: I mean, like ready to let it all go. If 656 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: this hypothetical situation was, well, how many how many US 657 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,919 Speaker 1: Opens do you think he has left in him where 658 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: he can be one of the favorites that that's probably 659 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 1: you have to do the math there and and maybe 660 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,919 Speaker 1: I don't know, top ten. After after he won the PGA, 661 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: he was like, I don't know, maybe this is the 662 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 1: start of a round. I'm about to go on. Yeah, 663 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, so his his mindset seems to be about 664 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: more about longevity than than it might appear. Well, it's 665 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: also where the older you get, the more unlikely it 666 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: is for you to string together for great rounds. You know, 667 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,720 Speaker 1: when you're younger and you get on a roll, and 668 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: you know Phil, a lot has to go right for 669 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: Phil Minicholson to win this tournament. A lot had to 670 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: go right for him to win the PGA Championship. And 671 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 1: those you're playing against, is anybody going to have a 672 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: career weekend? You also have to you know, kind of 673 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: factor that in as well. Is Xander Schofly going to 674 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 1: finally win a major? John Ram gonna win a major? 675 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: John Ram who had to famously bow out of the memorial? 676 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: What's his mindset? He's going to hear all these questions 677 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: about you know, COVID and are you vaccinated? And you 678 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: can you can you remain focused. That's a long golf 679 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: course too. You know, the scenery is beautiful. I didn't 680 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: love the chorus just because it was tough. You know, 681 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,359 Speaker 1: It's interesting how that is where this course is too. 682 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: I didn't think Augusta was difficult, but I'm playing it 683 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: from the members tease. There's no gallery around, there's nothing 684 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: that intimidates you. And I had a great caddy, so 685 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: you can kind of get around and not feel overwhelmed. 686 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: Tory Pines. You're going, how many yards I got left? 687 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 1: You got two hundred and seventy five? And it's a 688 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: part four yea, So Tory Pines is a that's a 689 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,919 Speaker 1: long slog. Yeah, club is that why you see old 690 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 1: guys like Fred Couples or some of them might have 691 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: a great first round and we talk about them, but 692 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 1: then they sort of fade because you can do if 693 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: you're old, you can you can put a good round together, 694 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: but not four. Yeah. I think that's you know where 695 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:34,399 Speaker 1: Tom Watson was able to do that and nearly one 696 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 1: you know that it's really hard to do that, and 697 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: I think that's that's what's rare about this. Plus, I 698 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: mean Phil still has power and to be able to 699 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 1: do that and keep up with the big boys, And 700 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: that's really important to Phil because I think Phil will 701 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: eventually take over for Nick Foudo on CBS. Like my 702 00:38:56,239 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 1: feeling is Phil eventually takes over, and from what I 703 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: was told, Phil still wants to be able to compete 704 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 1: at the Majors, and certainly at the Masters and and 705 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 1: the You know that's the tricky part. You know, the 706 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 1: CBS carries the Masters. Can he compete and still do 707 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 1: his job? And uh, you know that that might be 708 00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,359 Speaker 1: one of those things where if you're CBS, you say, 709 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: let's roll the dice. Our main analyst is going to 710 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: be playing in the tournament. Yes, you say, Phil still 711 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: has power. He hit a ball three hundred and sixty 712 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: six yards at PGA. That's a hell of a poke. 713 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: Yes it is. But you know they trick up these 714 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: fairways where they they're like bowling alleys. You just get 715 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: them going. They had these slots, these speed slots that 716 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 1: if you hit in a certain place and it hits 717 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: and then it goes. Um. Do we have a mentioned 718 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: with Callaway there Seaton? Uh? Yeah, yeah, I should have 719 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: that if oh I think I might have it in 720 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 1: my h here it is in my file systems where 721 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: you put all of my important papers. There. Yes, the 722 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 1: new Epic driver that Phil will have in his bag. 723 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: They have one for just about everybody. They got all 724 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,320 Speaker 1: the jailbreak speed frame technology there, Epic Max, the Epic 725 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,760 Speaker 1: speed which is what I use and the better players 726 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 1: use the Epic max ls, capitalizing on the tours preferred 727 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 1: combination of low spin high stability. Check out the Epic 728 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: Family drivers Kellawe golf dot com slash Epic Epic. Um 729 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: we gotta pull question, McLevin. Yeah, I put up the 730 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: question which team is going to be kicking itself the most? 731 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 1: The Sixers, the Box or the Jazz Sixers are running 732 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: away with it? Maybe recency biases? Yeah, probably, yes, that's true. 733 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 1: Thirty years ago today, Payne Stewart one is second major, 734 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: the US Open, and the low amateur was a kid 735 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 1: named Phil Mickelson. M Pretty pretty amazing. But you also 736 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: had those two going toe to toe. It was Father's 737 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 1: Day weekend with and that's when Phil's wife, Amy, I think, 738 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: was due to have their first child. And that's when 739 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 1: Payne talked about how you're going to get you your 740 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: chances to win majors. And I'm paraphrasing here, but I 741 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: remember part of that conversation, or at least you know 742 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 1: they retold that years later.
