Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. YEP, short on sleep, short on hardware. But
Speaker 1: we're here because every day is the Super Bowl. Ran
Speaker 1: into mclovin last night. Mclovin was going to be part
Speaker 1: of the festivities if we won, he was going to
Speaker 1: go on stage. But now we have finally rid ourselves
Speaker 1: of mclovin. It is a clean breakaway. He said. He
Speaker 1: is going to be rooting so hard against us next
Speaker 1: year to win the Sports Emmy. That's five in row.
Speaker 1: But just nice to be nominated. Congratulations to Good Morning Football.
Speaker 1: All they do is talk about football. Apparently that impressed
Speaker 1: the voters enough. They also only work a half day.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Good Morning? He schedules us.
Speaker 1: We'll get phone calls coming up. We'll head of the
Speaker 1: owners meetings. Albert Brier will join us. Update on de
Speaker 1: Shaan Why also the Pro Bowl? Maybe question mark Kyler
Speaker 1: Murray not showing up at OTAs does that matter? There's
Speaker 1: a few NFL items going on. Comedian David Spade will
Speaker 1: join us a little bit later on as well. Age
Speaker 1: seven seven three D P Show Email ADRESDP Dan Patrick
Speaker 1: dot Com, Twitter handle a TP show if you want
Speaker 1: to live vicariously through us. This is how it sounded
Speaker 1: last night around ten o'clock. Second to last category Beaumoney
Speaker 1: Jones with the honors, the nominees for Outstanding Studios Show
Speaker 1: Daily R The Dan Patrick Show, Peacock, Good Morning Football,
Speaker 1: NFL Network, NASCAR, Race Hub at this one, Harden the interruption, ESPN,
Speaker 1: the Rich Eisenshow Peacock SportsCenter, ESPN, and the winner is
Speaker 1: good morning. Oh That's what I wanted to sound like
Speaker 1: last night. Instead I was like, oh, congratulations, gradual, like
Speaker 1: h Kyle Brandt, Peter Schrager, Kay Adams, no body, Nate Burlson.
Speaker 1: And you know what stung a little bit more? All right,
Speaker 1: this is really behind the curtain. Michael Davies is the
Speaker 1: executive producer, and h I think the company's embassy row.
Speaker 1: They produce Good Morning Football. They've done a wonderful job.
Speaker 1: So whenever I see Michael Davies succeed, I get angry.
Speaker 1: I'll take you back many, many, many many years ago
Speaker 1: when there was a show that was just starting out,
Speaker 1: Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Well, guess who was
Speaker 1: the executive producer of Who Wants to be a millionaire
Speaker 1: Michael Davies who calls me out from Bristol, Connecticut when
Speaker 1: I was doing Sports Center and says, I want you
Speaker 1: to come out. I got a show I want you
Speaker 1: to do. I fly out. We go to Century City,
Speaker 1: I go to his office. We sit there, we talk.
Speaker 1: We watched game shows from around the world, a lot
Speaker 1: of game shows from Japan, and he's just looking for ideas.
Speaker 1: And then I finally said, well what am I doing here?
Speaker 1: He goes, I'm going to give you this show Who
Speaker 1: Wants to be a Millionaire. I just got to tell
Speaker 1: Regis Philbin that I'll get something else for him. So
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, all right, Michael Davies, sounds good, let's be
Speaker 1: a millionaire. Hopefully you're paying me a million to be
Speaker 1: on Who Wants to be a Millionaire. I go back home.
Speaker 1: I tell him my wife, I'm gonna get this show.
Speaker 1: Next thing I know, TV Guide has Regis Philbin on
Speaker 1: the cover with Who Wants to be a Millionaire? All right, everybody,
Speaker 1: Michael Davies, Yes, I guess who is a millionaire of that? Michael?
Speaker 1: He wants to be a millionim he was, He's got
Speaker 1: a lock on it. He's running Jeopardy. Now day, Oh,
Speaker 1: I know there's another show. He picked up Jeopardy. He
Speaker 1: had nothing to do in April, he said, take I
Speaker 1: was I, of course, was gonna be a replacement for
Speaker 1: Alex Trebec many years ago with the previous head of
Speaker 1: Sony TV. He came back from France. Uh. We met
Speaker 1: in New York and he said, if Alex steps down
Speaker 1: and retires that I'm gonna give you the job. You
Speaker 1: interested and I said sure. Next thing I know, he
Speaker 1: ended up. Alex Stade, the guy that was gonna hire
Speaker 1: me got fired and they brought in somebody else and
Speaker 1: then that was it. Other than that, last night was great. Great, Yeah, Paul,
Speaker 1: here's the tougher part. We're in this little group of
Speaker 1: people and there's the people sitting next to us. I
Speaker 1: didn't know their names, but they were high end producer
Speaker 1: guys for NBC Sports about six categories in It's Outstanding Team,
Speaker 1: Live Event Special and if some Olympic coverage, these two
Speaker 1: guys and they call them like they get up walk back.
Speaker 1: So for the rest of the night, there's a huge
Speaker 1: Emmy in the lap of the gentleman next to me
Speaker 1: just taunting me the whole night. Is that a sports Emmy?
Speaker 1: Or are you just happy to see me and it's gigantic? Yeah? Yeah, eaton?
Speaker 1: Do you want a new poll question or why not?
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. You know, we're sleep deprived, trying to
Speaker 1: keep everybody awake here, Marvin fell asleep on the party
Speaker 1: bus last night. Come on, let's go, come on, coverage,
Speaker 1: let's go, let's go. Thank you, Mark, What do you
Speaker 1: have for me? Seeing a new pole question for me?
Speaker 1: All right? Which is more worthy of recognition talking about
Speaker 1: one sport or talking about all sorts? I think it's
Speaker 1: harder talking about one sport. For how many hours Good
Speaker 1: Morning Football is on? They owned two hours or three hours? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like one and a half with commercials. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: what about Good Morning Dan Patrick's show? We change the
Speaker 1: name good Morning dan Patrick. We fool some people to
Speaker 1: like to be voting axt year, like, ye know, good morning? Okay,
Speaker 1: good Morning dan Patrick? Yes, Todd, there was a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of awards that were given to three sixty at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, So made do you go
Speaker 1: Dan Patrick's Show three sixty to get a couple more votes? Whatever?
Speaker 1: It changes? That seemed like a popular whatever, but see,
Speaker 1: I feel like we disappointed the audience. You know, they
Speaker 1: live vicariously through us, and I was carrying those hopes,
Speaker 1: in those dreams. I was gonna make somebody smile, make
Speaker 1: somebody happy. Yeah. See, Based on social media, I'd say
Speaker 1: that our audience is more put it in the sports.
Speaker 1: It was trending. It was trending the reaction our fans
Speaker 1: gave to the Sports Emmys, and I went, yes, Now,
Speaker 1: I don't want anybody to get angry, like overly angry,
Speaker 1: but I like that you were hurt as well and
Speaker 1: disappointed as well, and so were we. Phone calls are welcome.

Speaker 1: wedding in not too long ago, and you guys kindly
Speaker 1: refused it by sending us a little video. Yeah, do
Speaker 1: the voters not see that in the room? What are
Speaker 1: they doing? They did not blake, But I was happy
Speaker 1: that you invited us to your wedding, but we were
Speaker 1: not able to attend. I don't know if you invited
Speaker 1: Peter Schreger or Kay Adams. I'm going to guess they're
Speaker 1: not going, but we did send you a video just
Speaker 1: to say thank you for having us in your thoughts.
Speaker 1: Nick and South Carolina. Hi, Nick, what's on your mind? Hey?
Speaker 1: Sorry about the loss, but you can help me with
Speaker 1: that loss. So I work in sports broadcasting and I
Speaker 1: was actually nominated for the first time ever for my
Speaker 1: first award Most Outstanding Live Broadcast. I'm anticipating the best,
Speaker 1: I'm planning for the worst. What's your advice to best
Speaker 1: not win with grace, Well, I think if you go
Speaker 1: in hoping to win, not expecting to win, and also
Speaker 1: if you do win, brevity get up there. You're never
Speaker 1: as funny as you think you are. It's like the
Speaker 1: guy who gets up there and gives you the best
Speaker 1: man's speech at a wedding. You're not that funny, Jimmy,
Speaker 1: but you think you are. Thank everybody in the category,
Speaker 1: Thank a couple other people. If you're married, thank your
Speaker 1: wife for putting up with all the sacrifices, and then
Speaker 1: you exit stage left. That's it. You make it simple,
Speaker 1: make it clean, and that's it. Yeah. I do like though,
Speaker 1: and they'll give out the award for like and now
Speaker 1: best teas are open and here's Jimmy lippery too except
Speaker 1: for whatever. And the person gets up there and is like,
Speaker 1: this is just what makes the work so rewarding. This
Speaker 1: is just really what a team we've assembled here, and
Speaker 1: it's for like a thirty second promo, but it's the
Speaker 1: one that won the award. I'm not diminishing their work,
Speaker 1: but it is very funny to see like that, you know,
Speaker 1: just the way the group rallied around and believed in
Speaker 1: the vision that here we ex cut it. It's just
Speaker 1: this is why we do it. And then you always
Speaker 1: thank your boss. They always signal single out the head
Speaker 1: of and I'd like to thank let's see Mark Lazarus
Speaker 1: at NBC Sports for making this possible. This project doesn't
Speaker 1: start without great leadership, and they start light at the top,
Speaker 1: right at the top. We weren't going to mention anybody.
Speaker 1: We weren't doing any of that stuff. Yeah, PAULI, there
Speaker 1: was probably forty speeches last night. At least not one spouse.
Speaker 1: I don't think was thanked. I know there's a shot clock.
Speaker 1: They actually used a shot clock in the early ones.
Speaker 1: But I didn't catch one spouse, maybe one or two,
Speaker 1: but I know it was type of man. You gotta
Speaker 1: work that in. Maybe they have similar marriage to Marvin
Speaker 1: and maybe not quite sure what to say. They're like,
Speaker 1: why you didn't work on the promo? What I gotta
Speaker 1: thank you? I'm the one that they make fun of
Speaker 1: with small hands. You didn't do anything. I would have interrupted, Paulie.
Speaker 1: I want to thank my wife Jillian think I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I love you. Go ahead, paul you didn't work Michigan,
Speaker 1: Ohio state. What do I gotta thank you for? Yeah? Yes,

Speaker 1: us all the way up to the Himalayas and we
Speaker 1: shot that and now the award for Best Social Media Promo.
Speaker 1: It's I just got to thank the whole team. Everybody
Speaker 1: rallied to get these tweets out and then there's a

Speaker 1: you know, they have khakis on and a polo shirt
Speaker 1: and you're like, you know, and they spend you know,
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes up there thanking everybody, make it clean,
Speaker 1: thank the right people, don't go overboard, thank the people
Speaker 1: in the category, and then move on that. We weren't

Speaker 1: and the winner is the Dan Patrick Show, and here
Speaker 1: to accept the the the award. The Dans just want

Speaker 1: family proves otherwise. Takes no time at all to set
Speaker 1: up a test drive at your local Mercedes Benz dealer.
Speaker 1: Learn more about the Mercedes Benz MBUSA dot com. That's
Speaker 1: mb usa dot com, all right, uh, Albert Breer Monday
Speaker 1: Morning Quarterbacks set to join us. A few topics to
Speaker 1: dive into. Let me start with Deshaun Watson. The commissioners
Speaker 1: said that they're wrapping up the investigation, then they turn
Speaker 1: it over to their disciplinary committee. Are they two separate
Speaker 1: parties where the commissioner is not going to rule on
Speaker 1: Deshaun launchon? Yeah, it goes to the disciplinary committee where
Speaker 1: they make a recommendation to the commissioner and the commissioner
Speaker 1: has to make the final decision. But I mean, I
Speaker 1: every indication you get the commissioner a sort of the
Speaker 1: way that the reason it was done this way was
Speaker 1: because I don't know that the commissioner wants to be judge,
Speaker 1: Jerry and executioner anymore. And I think that this is
Speaker 1: the way that the union wanted it to when they
Speaker 1: were negotiating these things a couple of years ago. So
Speaker 1: you know, that's sort of where it is. They always
Speaker 1: talk to the player, almost always talked to the player last,
Speaker 1: which is that happened last week in Texas. And I
Speaker 1: think the one loose end you want to pay attention
Speaker 1: to here now is there still about a month of
Speaker 1: discovery left, and so they don't really need to make
Speaker 1: a decision before training camp. There's no real urgency to
Speaker 1: do it before training camp. I know some people have
Speaker 1: sort of pointed to this weekend and said, well, you know,
Speaker 1: this could be the bad news dump. I just don't
Speaker 1: know that they even though the investigation has, you know,
Speaker 1: pretty much wrapped up, I don't know they would want
Speaker 1: to jump the gun if they don't have to at
Speaker 1: this point, because, you know, just knowing that the discovery
Speaker 1: phase is going to be over when we get to
Speaker 1: July thirtieth and then July first, they could very easily
Speaker 1: just make their decision with a little bit more information
Speaker 1: and a little bit more clarity what's going to come
Speaker 1: out in the courts over the course the next couple
Speaker 1: of I mean, maybe the next couple of years. How
Speaker 1: do you think the commissioner factors in two grand juries,
Speaker 1: didn't decide to indict him. Now you have civil cases,
Speaker 1: you have twenty two women, Roethlisberger, Ezekiel Elliott. Are they
Speaker 1: going to be sort of the blueprints here of what
Speaker 1: the commissioner might do in a situation like this? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think so. And you know, one of the things
Speaker 1: to pay tention to Dan is, like those two cases
Speaker 1: Zeke and Roethlisberger happened before, there was like a change
Speaker 1: in the way that they do these things, and that
Speaker 1: you know, back then, I don't think they minded preempting
Speaker 1: a court decision. Since then, they've been a lot more
Speaker 1: hesitant to to do these sorts of things. They've stubbed
Speaker 1: their toe on numerous occasions getting ahead of the courts,
Speaker 1: Ray Rice, Josh Brown. There are examples of it. And
Speaker 1: so I think in this case, you know, would you
Speaker 1: like to have complete closure on the legal process? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you would. I think it's too high profile a case
Speaker 1: to leave. This is a loose end through the twenty
Speaker 1: twenty two season. So I think what you're going to
Speaker 1: see is they likely suspend him, and I think for
Speaker 1: a significant period of time, and I think the way
Speaker 1: this is going to be laid out is that he
Speaker 1: was irresponsible and put himself in these situations, whether he
Speaker 1: was guilty or not, he put himself in a position
Speaker 1: to embarrass his team, to embarrass the league, which is
Speaker 1: sort of what the verbiage was on Roethlisberger back in
Speaker 1: two thousand and ten. And then I think, because there's
Speaker 1: still you know, the open ended miss of the legal process,
Speaker 1: because the civil you know, the civil case hasn't the
Speaker 1: civil cases haven't run their course, I think the commissioners
Speaker 1: also going to leave open the possibility that he could
Speaker 1: add to the punishment if more stuff comes out in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Because again, like and I'm sure you
Speaker 1: guys have been over this, they've come to an agreement.
Speaker 1: The sides have come to an agreement that, you know,
Speaker 1: once training camp starts, they're going to sort of press
Speaker 1: pause on the civil cases and pick it up again
Speaker 1: March first. And so if there's no closure, if there's
Speaker 1: no settlement between now and the beginning of training camp,
Speaker 1: we're not going to have closure on this until twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three. Helped me understand that the owner has had
Speaker 1: an epiphany and now they want to kind of take
Speaker 1: inventory with Daniel Snyder, like like, now you might want
Speaker 1: to vote on whether you want to keep him as
Speaker 1: an owner, Like he's embarrassed the shield. I mean, what
Speaker 1: does he know that's positive for the game and for
Speaker 1: that franchise that now these owners may decide that they
Speaker 1: don't want him in their fraternity anymore. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: you know it's well, Hey, there's the financial part of it,
Speaker 1: which I mean, there's the whole don't mess with my
Speaker 1: money thing and all of that, And I think, like
Speaker 1: if you pay attention to the way the commissioners talked,
Speaker 1: I think you really saw a change at the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: He is very, very careful. Roger is about stepping on
Speaker 1: the toes of any of his bosses. And that's what
Speaker 1: the thirty one owners are, right, those are his bosses,
Speaker 1: and he's careful about speaking for them. And the Super
Speaker 1: Bowl he actually detailed the process for voting one of
Speaker 1: them out, you know, And I thought, like to myself,
Speaker 1: when you heard him say that, and I know it
Speaker 1: didn't get a ton of attention, but when you heard
Speaker 1: him say that, there had to be people who signed
Speaker 1: off on that, you know what I mean, Like there
Speaker 1: had to be people who said we're okay with you
Speaker 1: going forward and talking about this publicly, you know, And
Speaker 1: so I think there has been a change in that
Speaker 1: this one thing has led to another has led to another.
Speaker 1: And you know, I still don't think we're at the
Speaker 1: point where they're going to vote him out yet. I
Speaker 1: think what happens with the Mary Joe White investigation is
Speaker 1: going to be pivotal to whether or not we get
Speaker 1: to that point. But they've already sort of broken the
Speaker 1: seal on starting to talk about it, and that's a
Speaker 1: step towards the nuclear option. And I think they're gonna
Speaker 1: be very very careful about pressing that nuclear button because
Speaker 1: of what it means for all of them, the president
Speaker 1: of taking somebody else's team away, the possibility that Snyder
Speaker 1: all of a sudden returns fire on some of the guys,
Speaker 1: What could happen if people are digging through other owners trash.
Speaker 1: But you know, I think a lot of it's going
Speaker 1: to sort of ride on what's in that Mary Joe
Speaker 1: White report and then also like to what level. And
Speaker 1: I know this sounds horrible because you know, you're talking about,
Speaker 1: you know, financially screwing somebody versus some of the way
Speaker 1: worse stuff that happened in that organization. But I do
Speaker 1: think part of this is going to be to what
Speaker 1: level was Daniel Snyder screwing the rest of his partners
Speaker 1: financially talking Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter, lead content strategists
Speaker 1: for the Monday Morning Quarterback a couple other topics here
Speaker 1: to touch on Aaron Donald's situation. I think he has
Speaker 1: what three years fifty five million left, That's right, He's
Speaker 1: looking at these other numbers that people are getting. What
Speaker 1: do you think the future is? And I don't know
Speaker 1: what the RAMS salary camp is to be able to
Speaker 1: do something new for him. But where are we headed
Speaker 1: with the RAMS and Aaron don't Yeah, I mean I
Speaker 1: think like the Aaron Donald, I think Aaron Donald and
Speaker 1: Cooper couple both get done. I do think the RAMS
Speaker 1: is some degree painted themselves in a corner here and
Speaker 1: so openly talking about how they were willing to do
Speaker 1: it when both guys had significant time left on their deals.
Speaker 1: And part of the issue with Donald is his deal
Speaker 1: has already sort of been mortgaged. You know, there's tens
Speaker 1: of millions of dollars in pro rated amounts that have
Speaker 1: been pushed off, and so like, the way you would
Speaker 1: do this normally is, all right, we're gonna go back
Speaker 1: into the deal, We'll add like two years to the
Speaker 1: back end. We'll push the lower numbers to the back
Speaker 1: end and move all the big money up front. And
Speaker 1: so you'd essentially be creating a new contract on front
Speaker 1: on the front of the old contract. So he gets
Speaker 1: bigger money now and can cash in and be rewarded
Speaker 1: for what he just accomplished for the team. You know.
Speaker 1: The question I think then becomes, how do you move
Speaker 1: some of that money around that you've already pushed off
Speaker 1: into the future, and what sort of issue that can
Speaker 1: create for you going forward. And I think that's where
Speaker 1: it becomes complicated for the Rams, And that's I think ultimately,
Speaker 1: like Dan, you know, they've they've they've been playing for
Speaker 1: now for so long, and they've viewed draft picks and
Speaker 1: cap space that way for so long, and it's just
Speaker 1: interesting to look at how like all this stuff continues
Speaker 1: to get pushed forward into the future and when they're
Speaker 1: actually going to have to reckon with that. Remember, the
Speaker 1: CAP's also going to go up significantly in the next
Speaker 1: few years. A new television deals kick into the equation,
Speaker 1: and so I think because of the amount of money
Speaker 1: they've mortgaged on Donald's deal, it's complicated. I think it'll
Speaker 1: get done. But I also wouldn't underestimate Donald's willingness to
Speaker 1: push the envelope on this. Either he's not there right now.
Speaker 1: It was in the area, but he's not there right now.
Speaker 1: And he's never shown any fear in the past of
Speaker 1: holding out, like he staged significant holdouts when really nobody
Speaker 1: else was two summers in a row. So I also
Speaker 1: wouldn't underestimate his willingness to sort of step on the
Speaker 1: team's throat to try to get something done. If this
Speaker 1: was the Patriots, it feels like the Patriots would move
Speaker 1: on from Aaron Donald. Maybe Yeah, he just turned thirty one, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean what you're gonna pay him and you've gotten
Speaker 1: his best work. Yeah, It's like Albert Poohle's with the Cardinals.
Speaker 1: You've got ten great years and then all of a
Speaker 1: sudden you're like, we're good, We'll move on from you.
Speaker 1: So the difference, though, Dan to me, is like the
Speaker 1: like if we go back a decade and you're talking
Speaker 1: about the Patriots, right, like the way the Patriots were
Speaker 1: built in the way the Colts were built right and
Speaker 1: both of them were very successful. So it's not that
Speaker 1: there's one right way and one wrong way. But the
Speaker 1: Patriots emphasized balanced through their roster, and so what they built,
Speaker 1: if you took a star out of it, was a
Speaker 1: little sturdier, whereas like if you remember the Colts, they
Speaker 1: were very top heavy. They had like eight or nine
Speaker 1: guys making all the money, and obviously they were really
Speaker 1: successful doing that. But you remember what happened in twenty
Speaker 1: eleven when Peyton got hurt and then a couple of
Speaker 1: the other guys got old. The whole thing came undone,
Speaker 1: and then they had to completely rebuild it around Andrew
Speaker 1: Luck in the years to come. And so that's the
Speaker 1: issue with the Rams doing something like that, is they're
Speaker 1: sort of built on that Colts model, you know, where
Speaker 1: you have and they've been again, really successful doing it.
Speaker 1: But you have a handful of guys who you're very
Speaker 1: very reliant on, who are making all the money, and
Speaker 1: when you take one of those pieces out, what does
Speaker 1: it mean for the rest of the group. I think
Speaker 1: that's sort of the issue with being taking I guess
Speaker 1: a patriot's mentality to that. Now that said, they've been
Speaker 1: they've been okay moving away from guys like they got
Speaker 1: rid of Marcus Peters, they got rid of Jared Goff,
Speaker 1: they got rid of Todd Gurley. So they've been willing
Speaker 1: to do it. Donald's been such a big piece, and
Speaker 1: I just don't know what happens that defense, in that
Speaker 1: group if you take him out. Kyle Shanahan says he
Speaker 1: expects Jimmy Garoppolo to be traded. He's just not sure
Speaker 1: when and where. Okay, if you're Jimmy Garoppolo, how do
Speaker 1: you feel when your coach says, yeah, you're gonna be traded.
Speaker 1: We don't know when or where. I think you understand
Speaker 1: if you're Jimmy, because this is so injury related, you know,
Speaker 1: and he chose not to get surgery after the season,
Speaker 1: and that was his choice, and you know, I know
Speaker 1: a big part of it was like he felt like,
Speaker 1: if I give this four weeks, six weeks, it's going
Speaker 1: to get stronger and maybe I can deal with this
Speaker 1: non surgically. And the juncture at which he got the
Speaker 1: surgery made it tough for the Niners to move him. Now,
Speaker 1: if you're trading for him, right if you're another team
Speaker 1: trading for him, he's got one year left on his deal,
Speaker 1: and he's coming back off of a rotator cuff, and
Speaker 1: so you think he's going to be okay in July.
Speaker 1: But if you're only buying him for one year and
Speaker 1: there's any sort of uncertainty on that and you're going
Speaker 1: to pay him twenty five million dollars, that's kind of
Speaker 1: a tough sell. You'd like to see him throw first.
Speaker 1: And so I think where the Niners have moved now
Speaker 1: is to let's let Trey Lance have the spring, Let's
Speaker 1: let Jimmy rehab. Let's let all these other teams have
Speaker 1: their situations play out at quarterback, and then maybe we
Speaker 1: get to July first, and maybe Jimmy can throw again
Speaker 1: at that point, and maybe Jimmy can show to other
Speaker 1: teams what he can do. And then you hope, like
Speaker 1: a Seattle or a Carolina comes out of the spring
Speaker 1: and says, God, our quarterback situation isn't quite what we
Speaker 1: thought it would be. So that right now is the
Speaker 1: strategy the Niners. Because of the situation that that shoulder
Speaker 1: surgery put them in. The Niners were patient before and
Speaker 1: I think it's sort of blew up in their face
Speaker 1: a little bit, like they thought, like, hey, if we
Speaker 1: wait for Watson and we wait for Wilson and we
Speaker 1: wait for the Roger situation to play themselves out, somebody's
Speaker 1: going to be desperate and want a quarterback who was
Speaker 1: in the championship game to the last three years. Then
Speaker 1: he gets the surgery and that sort of screwed all
Speaker 1: that up. I think now being patient again, there's merit,
Speaker 1: it could pay off, but there's also some rest. We
Speaker 1: keep tinkering with the Pro Bowl. It's just like putting
Speaker 1: lips work. Yeah, you put lipstick on a pig. I
Speaker 1: mean it's still a pig. What are the possible solutions here?
Speaker 1: I guess for the lack of a better word, of
Speaker 1: what you do with some kind of showcase. Yeah, they
Speaker 1: kept using the term yesterday when we were in when
Speaker 1: we were in Atlanta, celebration of the players that are
Speaker 1: voted in, And I think that that's the right way
Speaker 1: to look at it. I just think like maybe the
Speaker 1: NFL has to look at something is not a money
Speaker 1: making event, right, Like maybe they could truly make it
Speaker 1: a celebration for the players, right It's like maybe there's
Speaker 1: just a one thing where you're like, you know what,
Speaker 1: like we're just gonna make this good for the guys, right,
Speaker 1: like we're not like and I know, like that's like
Speaker 1: could diametrically oppose the way they think. But like it's
Speaker 1: just the structure of the sport, Dan, like, you cannot
Speaker 1: play that sport like fifty percent and haven't be remotely entertaining.
Speaker 1: You know. So I've heard the idea that they could
Speaker 1: play a seven on seven game, they could have a
Speaker 1: big Man Challenge, they could have all this stuff. You
Speaker 1: put that on TV. Maybe it works. I always like
Speaker 1: the Quarterback Challenge when I was a kid. That'd be fun.
Speaker 1: To bring something like that back. You have to have
Speaker 1: the players sign off on it, and you know, I mean, god,
Speaker 1: you and I both remember the Robert Edwards story a
Speaker 1: million years ago, So how do you do that when
Speaker 1: you're protecting the players. But it seems like everybody's in
Speaker 1: agreement that the game itself doesn't work and that it's
Speaker 1: not up to NFL standards. And if the game wasn't
Speaker 1: drawing a rating, which somehow it does still draw a rating,
Speaker 1: I think it would have been gone a few years ago.
Speaker 1: I'm the guy that they should consult on this is
Speaker 1: Peyton Inning. Because one thing that you hear about like
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl back when it was Hawaii in Hawaii,
Speaker 1: was how Peyton Manning turned it into like this convention
Speaker 1: for star players, right, Like this is your elite of
Speaker 1: an elite. It's like the Mensa of football meeting, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like this is the elite of
Speaker 1: the elite, and we get to talk about issues in
Speaker 1: the league, and we're going to sit around the pool
Speaker 1: and have a good time and all that stuff. Like
Speaker 1: I think they should enlist people like Peyton Manning and say,
Speaker 1: how do we make this like a resource for our
Speaker 1: star players. How do we make this a good thing
Speaker 1: for our star players that our star players want to
Speaker 1: participate in. I do think that there could be something there.
Speaker 1: They just got to find a way to like break
Speaker 1: that tendency to just want to turn everything into a
Speaker 1: pot of gold, because I don't think that pot of
Speaker 1: gold's here for the Pro Bowl. I'll leave you with this,
Speaker 1: there's a pie to the face for one of the
Speaker 1: Danet's that hinges on your answer. Okay, most random Pro
Speaker 1: Bowl quarterback of all time? I'm going to give you
Speaker 1: two Steve Berlin yep, and David Garrard. Steve Berlin and
Speaker 1: David Garrard. You haven't been asked to this question today,
Speaker 1: have you? Who would be my most random? Yeah? Didn't
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles make it? He did, but he led the
Speaker 1: NFL and you know passing, Yeah, yeah, and he was
Speaker 1: a high draft pick. See, Like, because you only get two,
Speaker 1: there's only two answers here, David Steve Berlin, and can
Speaker 1: I come up with one that's more random than that?
Speaker 1: Is what you're saying? Well, you don't know. You you
Speaker 1: have to pick between those two. Oh, I have to
Speaker 1: pick between those two. Who was a better player? No
Speaker 1: more random? More quarterback Steve Berlin Berlin? Oh, I would say,
Speaker 1: and that's not an age thing, but Gerrard. I think
Speaker 1: Gerrard was like a solid starting quarterback for a playoff
Speaker 1: team multiple years. Right? Okay? Was Berlin ever that? No?
Speaker 1: So my? Like, what I remember most about Berlin was
Speaker 1: how he was Troy Aikman's replacement that year the Cowboys
Speaker 1: first made the playoffs with the Triplets, Right, wasn't he
Speaker 1: like he was the quarterback of the team that went
Speaker 1: into the playoffs that year? The year before they won
Speaker 1: their first championship. Right, two games. Yeah, and then he
Speaker 1: was the first quarterback of the Carolina Panthers too. I
Speaker 1: believe all right, you just helped A Dannatt avoid a
Speaker 1: pie to the face with that answer. Oh I didn't.
Speaker 1: Oh so no one's getting a no. Do you want
Speaker 1: to do you want to change your everybody? Yeah? You did.
Speaker 1: It's all about content. You're the lead content strategist at
Speaker 1: the Monday Morning Quarterback. Well, if if I had had
Speaker 1: warning that like, it would be right. If I answered
Speaker 1: that question wrong, I would have given you Gerard, and
Speaker 1: then somebody had pie in their face and everybody would
Speaker 1: have won. So I'm sorry I did so disappointed. Albert,

Speaker 1: what's on your mind? Hey? Hey Dan? First time a
Speaker 1: long time? How are you doing good? Mike five eight
Speaker 1: one seventy five. I have an idea for the Pro
Speaker 1: Bowl kind of out there, but I was thinking like
Speaker 1: a mashup of football in esports where we bring in
Speaker 1: two guys who I don't even know where their esports stars,
Speaker 1: but to play like a Madden style game and they're area.
Speaker 1: You're bringing all the players, they're all dressed nice, we
Speaker 1: miked them up, and then they get to watch their
Speaker 1: avatars player on the field, all their current stats, all
Speaker 1: the current season, and then they get to comment out
Speaker 1: loud on what they're doing on field. What do you
Speaker 1: think I'm open to anything other than the Pro Bowl itself.
Speaker 1: I have no interest in it. Yeah. See, I get
Speaker 1: the sense that football players the best way, Like if
Speaker 1: you ask them the way they wanted to be honored,
Speaker 1: it would be give us more money or leave us alone,
Speaker 1: let me just go on vacation. Yeah, they That's why
Speaker 1: they would love to go to Hawaii. They would be
Speaker 1: able to go on vacation. Then, of course you would
Speaker 1: have to play in the game. But you wanted to
Speaker 1: go to Hawaii. You didn't want to play in the game.
Speaker 1: You wanted to be named to the Pro Bowl. Team.
Speaker 1: I'm open to it. I think we've spent far too
Speaker 1: much time on the Pro Bowl. It's just different. You know,
Speaker 1: the NBA All Star Game is really just it's layup lines.
Speaker 1: Just go back and forth, have some fun. And if
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna go off and it's going to be in
Speaker 1: their home arena and you want to have Steph half
Speaker 1: fifty points or whoever it is, Okay, I'm fine with it.
Speaker 1: Like I don't come away from the NBA All Star
Speaker 1: Game going no, they're not playing any defense. Even the
Speaker 1: All Star Game in baseball. I know what it used
Speaker 1: to be, but I'm okay with it, like it's just
Speaker 1: not going to be that anymore. And I have to
Speaker 1: I have to put myself in a position where the
Speaker 1: athletes are do I want to be playing like this?
Speaker 1: You know it's one hundred and sixty two games or
Speaker 1: the NBA. I got eighty two games, then I got
Speaker 1: the postseason, and you want me to go out here
Speaker 1: and play defense and make it what serious? Like, it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. We've tried to make it. Hey, home field
Speaker 1: advantage in the World Series. Now, are you guys gonna play? Well?
Speaker 1: I don't know if everybody's going to be all in
Speaker 1: on that, or they were all in on that. If
Speaker 1: you played for the Pirates, you don't care about home
Speaker 1: field advantage in the World Series. But we spend so
Speaker 1: much time on some of these things and not enough
Speaker 1: time on other things, important things. Pick the guy who
Speaker 1: has not been nominated for his Sports Emmy. Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, Eli Manning, Julian Edelman, Bill Belichick. Four of
Speaker 1: the five have been nominated for his Sports Emmy. Yes,
Speaker 1: don it seems like a trick question, but I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say Bill Belichick, Okay, all right, Seaton, I was gonna
Speaker 1: go Bill Belichick is all right? Marv Belichick, all right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Belichick in as well, Yes, Pawling. Bill
Speaker 1: Belichick was nominated as Best Studio Analyst twenty twenty. It's
Speaker 1: part of a group that NFL Network did looking back
Speaker 1: at great players and games. Remember Rich Eysen hosted that show,
Speaker 1: So then it's Tom Brady. Tom Brady is correct. Tom
Speaker 1: Brady as an individual has never been nominated his his
Speaker 1: sports show The Deep ec Chopra. Yeah, m Peyton Manning
Speaker 1: got nominated this year. Eli Manning was Best New Artist
Speaker 1: or whatever they call it. Okay, and then Julian Edeman
Speaker 1: also nominated this. Huh all right? I like that he
Speaker 1: got us what a fun game? Got any more fun games?
Speaker 1: I would love to see Belichick get up there and
Speaker 1: give his speech. Ye just going to thank her everybody. Bill,
Speaker 1: you still have thirty more seconds. Uh, thank mister Kraft,
Speaker 1: Patriot Organization. You've got twenty five more seconds. My dog
Speaker 1: and my fance, you got twenty more seconds, and we're
Speaker 1: on to next year's Emmy's. Good Night Delhi in Chicago, Hi, Delhi,
Speaker 1: Hello there, good morning. I wanted to bring up a
Speaker 1: question no one's talked about. Who picks the segment? The
Speaker 1: judges we discuss it. I think you get five different
Speaker 1: It has to be under twenty minutes total, and you
Speaker 1: get five clips from the show. Could be an interview,
Speaker 1: it could be something goofy, it could be something serious.
Speaker 1: But it has to be five different segments on there,
Speaker 1: and it has to be twenty minutes or less. We
Speaker 1: did not put in a limerick or anything like that.
Speaker 1: You're just saying we did not should I've had just
Speaker 1: five limericks next year, that's it. If we want to
Speaker 1: not go yeah, yeah, yeah, Seaton. Some people have suggested
Speaker 1: we should just put today's show as some of it
Speaker 1: where we're just kind of ripping, not winning the sports
Speaker 1: envy and how much of a crock that is. Well,
Speaker 1: it's just nice to be nominated, Seaton, So yep, it
Speaker 1: is nice to win. I will tell you that Peter
Speaker 1: Schreger knows that. Feeling good morning football, he joins his
Speaker 1: coming up next to rub it In, and David Spade
Speaker 1: will stop by as well. Final Hour this Wednesday, coming
Speaker 1: up
