1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Final Hour Meet Friday, Dan and the Dane's

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 1: Stan Patrick Show. Probably not tuning in figuring you'll here

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: and Aaron interview. But Hank has just passed away at

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: the age of eighty six. He joined us this past April,

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: and we thought that instead of talking about him, how

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,319
Speaker 1: about we go back when we talked to him. So

8
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: in about twenty minutes from now, we will bring this

9
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: to you the last interview that we did, and that's

10
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: many interviews over the course of my career with one

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: of my idols, Hank Aaron, who passed away at the

12
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: age of eighty six. Last five months, some of baseballs

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: all time greats pass away, Tom sever Lou Brock, Joe Morgan,

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: Bob Gibson, Don Sutton, and now Hank Aaron. We'll get

15
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 1: to phone calls as well. Eight seven seven three DP

18
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: an updated status report on Patrick Mahon, but I would

19
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: probably exhale if I'm a Kansas City Chiefs. You've got

20
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: a lot of reps in practice and probably will be

21
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: medically cleared out of concussion protocol at some point today.

22
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: Now we're more than two days away, so it's plenty

23
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,559
Speaker 1: of time he's still able to get in his reps.

24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: That's what I wondered about during the week, if he

25
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: was going to be hampered in how much time he

26
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: would get with the first team offense. Here's something to

27
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: keep in mind. In the regular season, nobody allowed more

28
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: completions to tight ends than the Buffalo Bills did. Travis

29
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: Kelsey is coming off a record setting year. Just something

30
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: to file away when we look at that offense and

31
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: if you go, I'll be damned. Travis Kelsey's open all

32
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: the time. Now, not that Buffalo is going to go,

33
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: you know what, we just can't cover a tight end.

34
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: We'll let him have his catches. They're going to do

35
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: their best to try to stop Travis Kelsey. Easier said

36
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: than done. But Buffalo surrendered more catches to tight ends

37
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: this year than any NFL team. And one of the

38
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: amazing things about the NFL is how closely matched these

39
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: teams are. The lines are hovering around a field goal

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 1: for both of these games this weekend, and you never know.

41
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: I always feel like there's one close game and then

42
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 1: there's a blowout. So many times of funny bounce, a

43
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: missed past changes everything, and legacies are defined by the

44
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 1: thinnest of margins. When you think about Tom Brady, he

45
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: won six Super Bowls. Look how close he was to

46
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: winning other super Bowls. Look how close he was to

47
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: losing super Bowls. It's a fine line because he could

48
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: have beaten the Eagles, where he could have beaten the Giants.

49
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: But then you look back on some of these friendly

50
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: bounces or Adam Vinterteri with clutch field goals you had,

51
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: you know, the tuck game, when that should have been

52
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: a fumble. They shouldn't even gotten to the Super Bowl.

53
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: But this is how legacies are built by the thinnest

54
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: of margins. And I go back to Patrick Mahomes. We're

55
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: all ready to say he'll be one of the great

56
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: quarterbacks of all time. Go back to the regular season

57
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: when we thought he dislocated his knee. Go back to

58
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: the postseason when he was behind against the Texans, behind

59
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: against the Titans. They ended up winning those games. In

60
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, he's down ten fourth quarter, six minutes

61
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: to go. Jimmy Garoppolo completes a pass San Francisco is

62
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: going to win that game. Chris Jones knocks it down

63
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: the slightest of margins there. So yeah, Patrick Mahomes Josh

64
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: Allen going toe to toe, and then of course you

65
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: have Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady. A trip to the

66
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowl hangs in the balance. I said to Todd,

67
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: there's a couple of people I'd love to hear if

68
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: they were able to speak about Hank Aaron, the former commissioner,

69
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: Bud Seeley, who was a lifelong dear friend of Hank Aaron's,

70
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: and also Bob Yuker. I thought that those would be

71
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: two great people to have to talk about Hank Aaron.

72
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: And then I said to Fritzie, you know what, see

73
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: if Johnny Bench would join us, because it feels like

74
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: Johnny's a member of the show. And you know he

75
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: also was there he faced Don Sutton. But Hank. You know,

76
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: when Hank Aaron hit seven fourteen, he was in Cincinnati

77
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: and Jack Billingham was the pitcher, and I believe Johnny

78
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: was behind home plate for that home run that Hank hit.

79
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: And then he goes to Atlanta and then hit the

80
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: home run off out downing seven fifteen. Yeah, Pol A

81
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: couple of years ago, the topic of changing sports names

82
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: came up and some different baseball teams. There's an article

83
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 1: written about it, and the great Atlanta Brave Dale Murphy

84
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: tweeted out, I always felt that Hammer and Hank, Hank

85
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 1: the Hammer, was one of the coolest nicknames ever. If

86
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Braves ever consider a name change, make it

87
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Hammers. Oh, that is one of the better

88
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: ideas if that situation ever came to pass. I've heard

89
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: in a while, yeah, yeah, And I wondered about that,

90
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: and I think Johnny was behind the plate when Hank

91
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: hit that, But I remember that Hank was going to

92
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: sit out, and then Booie Quene, the commissioner, said no,

93
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 1: You're playing in the game because Hank wanted to set

94
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: the record in Atlanta, and so Hank played and then

95
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: hit the home run off Jack Billingham age seven seven

96

98
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: Hey Rob, thanks for joining us, Hey Danny. I sure

99
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: also don't want to bring down the mood or anything,

100
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: but I grew up outside of Atlanta, and Henry Aaron

101
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: was my first sports hero, and I actually got to

102
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 1: see him play in Fulton County Stadium. And I've had

103
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: many disagreements with people over the years about who the

104
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: greatest hitter that ever was. It was and a lot

105
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: of them were from Boston, and I said, it's Henry Aaron.

106
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: It's Henry Aaron, look it up. And I've always appreciated

107
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: the fact that you championed him, So thank you, Danny,

108
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: and a sad day, but go Hammers. Yeah, there was

109
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: nothing dramatic about him. You know, he lacked flair, but

110
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: that's not who he was. But he was, you know,

111
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: in that group with Mickey mant On, Willie Mays. You

112
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: can't be any more flamboyant than those guys were the

113
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 1: way they played. But Hank just went about his business.

114
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: Hank never hit fifty home runs in a season, but

115
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 1: back then, if you hit thirty thirty five, you were

116
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: a power hitter. And if you look at the effortless

117
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: swing of Hank Aaron, now there was no launch angle,

118
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: there was no you know, you know, he was a

119
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: three hundred hitter for his career. Hank had this ability

120
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: to flip his wrist. He just flicked his wrist and

121
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 1: somehow somebody at that size could hit the ball that

122
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: far and hit seven hundred and fifty home runs. Let's

123
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: bring in the Hall of Famer Johnny. And you went

124
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: toe to toe. I'm sure would Hank quite a few times.

125
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: And uh, I don't know when you got the news, Johnny,

126
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: but if I'm bringing it to you now, I apologize.

127
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 1: But I thought you'd be a good person to to

128
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: have on well. Actually, Dan as I got all of

129
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: a sudden, a flood of text and Henry and with

130
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: you know, eyes that are crying and it's and I said, no,

131
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: don't tell me this. I mean, I'm just absolutely worn

132
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: out from this, our ninth person in a year and

133
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: within the year's time, and you know, with don Sudden

134
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: and lots sorta and I mean donnys to hang out

135
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: with in Palm Springs. And then I thought, man, this

136
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: is just getting too much. And then and I just

137
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: sent a picture to Fritzie and I hope you can

138
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: pull it up. It's Hank sliding into me and it's

139
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: hanging on my wall here in my office, and Henry said,

140
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: Henry writes on it to John, I wish the hell

141
00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: you'd stay out of my way. Ahead were you behind

142
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: the plate when Hank Hiven fourteen off Jack Billingham. Yeah,

143
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: Jack still says, I called it. Wait, what did you call? Basketball?

144
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: Called the breaking ball? Up? Breaking ball? And I was

145
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: there at the I was standing on home plate when

146
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: I shook Hank Garon's hands because I dan when I

147
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: when I broke in and I'm catching, and Henry would

148
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: come up and you know, I'd take off his put

149
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: his bat down and put his helmet on over his

150
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: soft cap, and he would say, Hi, John, how you doing?

151
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: And nobody ever knew that. And from the very beginning,

152
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: I don't think there was a game that when I

153
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: let off, or when his first time at bet that

154
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: he didn't say hello. And I mean, it was such

155
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: a reward just to be with the man, and to

156
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 1: be at the Hall of Fame with him and his gentleness,

157
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: his class, at the Gold Glove Awards, I mean, just

158
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: anywhere you were with Hank and we were trying to

159
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: put together a zoom call just recently and it hadn't happened,

160
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm so sad and disappointed. I mean, you can't,

161
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: you know, you can't measure the what we've lost in

162
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: baseball this year. And but he was just you know,

163
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: like I heard you talking about the flip of the

164
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 1: wrists and everything else. And of course he filled out

165
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: on his forearms looked like my thighs. I mean they

166
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: were you know, you wonder how the wrist and those

167
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: forearms and everything else. And hit off his front foot

168
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: and just flicked it and I mean it was and

169
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: you know, seven hundred and fifty five home runs. If

170
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: you take those away, he still had three thousand hits. Yeah,

171
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: I mean this, but you know, but he was a

172
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: great base stealer, he was a great defender, and he

173
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: was just a better, better man. I had a better person.

174
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I am. I'm just so sad and uh god, ye,

175
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: it's just and we can't do enough, you know, to

176
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: say for him and what he did for baseball and

177
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: what he meant to baseball, what he meant to everybody

178
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: he played with. I can tell you to a man,

179
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: all those all those players were just with adelation and respect.

180
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: And I don't think you can leave a better legacy

181
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: than than for us to talk about him in this

182
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: kind of manner and say what a what a just

183
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: a general person, and what a wonderful person, and the

184
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: old time home run King to most people. Yeah, I

185
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: wondered about that, Johnny. Do you think the Hall of

186
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: Famer's view Hank as the old time home run King? Yeah? Yeah,

187
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: And I think it's just out of respect and everything else.

188
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: I think of everybody's always always looking at the you know,

189
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: the pds and the starry Starboard era and whatever, and

190
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: much difference it would have made. And you know, and um,

191
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: you know, it's sort of but there there's there's so many,

192
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 1: there's there's few people in your life that when you

193
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: walk in to the Hall of Fame and you walk

194
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: into where you walk into the hotel, and you know,

195
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: the first time was Ted Williams, and there was Joe

196
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: and there was Empanella, and here's Duke Snyder and you know,

197
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: here's all these guys and and and there's Henry and

198
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: Willie and I mean it was just it just gave credence,

199
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: It gave validity to being in the Hall of Fame.

200
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know that we will ever, you know,

201
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: none of us will you know, ever have that stature.

202
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: I think because it's to me if it will always be,

203
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: that's what the Hall of Fame is. It's it's those people.

204
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: It's you know, what we dreamed of all our lives

205
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: and hitting in the rocks out of the driveway and

206
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 1: hitting playing home run derby at the park, and you know,

207
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: and you know the thing is, if you think about it,

208
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: then I don't know that there's anybody that's ever emulated hitting.

209
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: I kan'k Karen, because I don't think it's I don't

210
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: think you can I don't think you can copy or

211
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 1: emulate or perfect those things. He was one of a

212
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: kind as a as a baseball player, and he's one

213
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: of the kind as a person. And my whole being

214
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: as sad. Yeah, we lost Tom Seeber, we lost Leu Bronch,

215
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: we lost Joe Morgan, Bob Gibson, Don Sutton, now Hank Aaron. Yeah,

216
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: listen Necro and Necro I talked to him, and I

217
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: talked to him about once a week. And I don't know,

218
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: but I tell you the story about Sparky calling me

219
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: into the office one day and and he said, John,

220
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: we've got a chance to trade for Necro. What do

221
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,440
Speaker 1: you think? And I said, you better trade for his catch?

222
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: And he always loved that nux he was. I said,

223
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, he'd called me and I see you to

224
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: tell me a joker, I don't want to talk to you.

225
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: And of course that was the one thing. And Analyst

226
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: sort of was just the wizard on my baseball bunch.

227
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: And I gotta put you in bubble wrap, all right.

228
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: I gotta make sure nothing happens to you. Yeah, I'm

229
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: you know, And all of a sudden we started feeling

230
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: so vulnerable. I mean it's like, I mean, all of us,

231
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: I guess, you know, to think they were you know

232
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: there and that. And I talked to Raleigh, I talked

233
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: to Wade Buggs, I talked to to Brett, and talked

234
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: to Robin out the other day. And you know, you

235
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: just want to call and you know, I I say, just hey,

Speaker 1: That's Johnny Bench And uh yeah, I appreciate him coming on.

241
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: I could hear it in his voice. Um. But he

242
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: also wants to make sure that people remember these people,

243
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: you know, and that's that I appreciate that with John yeah,

244
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's tough. You know, I've been in this

245
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: business so long that I see the starts of careers,

246
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: the end of careers. I see careers, and then the

247
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: careers of you know, children of these stars. I mean

248
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: I was there for Kobe's draft. I was there when

249
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: you know, Len Bias got drafted. I was there for

250
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: the lay Merino draft like I you know, and then

251
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: you see these and now you see that their kids

252
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: are playing, and you know, I've been very fortunate. But

253
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: the older I get, the more I'm going to go

254
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 1: through this with all of these all of these legends.

255
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: I mean, if I'll sign up for eighty six, now,

256
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: I'd sign up for that. But I just hope he

257
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: had a good life what he considered a good life,

258
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: because I think he was private. I don't think he

259
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: ever told you maybe what was really going on. But

260
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: I just got a glimpse when I saw those letters

261
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: that people wrote and the things they said about like

262
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: you might say that about somebody, but you can't say

263
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: that about Hank Aaron, Like he just can't. I mean,

264
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: it was just horrible see some of the his letters

265
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: and the fact that they had snipers on the top

266
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: of Fulton County Stadium the night that Hank Aaron broke

267
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: Babe Bruce record. They were worried that somebody was going

268
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: to try to assassinate they were going to try to

269
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: kill Hank Aaron because he had gotten letters death runs,

270
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: and you had snipers up on the top of Fulton

271
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: County Stadium. And then when you had those two idiots

272
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: who went onto the field after Hank hit the home

273
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: run and as he's rounding second base, these two guys

274
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: came up to Hank. How they did not get shot.

275
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: It's remarkable because these are snipers and they see two

276
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: guys running out there and they don't know and Hank,

277
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: as much class as he had, he brushed them aside.

278
00:15:54,720 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: They ruined his moment, but he still was able to

279
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: round third go home, and then they celebrated a little bit.

280
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: But if you missed it last April, in fact, it

281
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: was April fourth, nineteen seventy four, when he when he

282
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: set the record, and we wanted to have him on

283
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: for the anniversary of seven to fifteen. And I'm just

284
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: so happy that we called him because a lot of

285
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: times I don't want to call Jerry West and bother him.

286
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: Now name. There's certain players that are former players that

287
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: I just go just leave him alone, and Polly goes, no,

288
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: you love Hankaron, I do, but I want to bother him.

289
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: And I think he was happy we called. I mean,

290
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: I'm going to take that feeling away from it. But

291
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: you'll hear that coming up next. We'll take a break

292
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: here eighteen after the hour. This is the Dan Patrick Show.

293
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: Oh you heard me talk about built barr and I

294
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: got a new shipment here, so I'm in a good mood.

295
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: I got a shipment ready for this weekend. There's eighteen

296
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: flavors there. You're going to notice a couple of things.

297
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: You're gonna go. That looks like a candy bar that

298
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 1: tastes like a candy bar. Is that a candy bar? No,

299
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: it's a protein bar. Taste like a candy bar, looks

300
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: like a candy bar, but low calorie, low sugar, high protein,

301

Speaker 1: high fiber. If you're looking to lose weight and you

328
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 1: I did April eighth of twenty twenty with Hank, the

329
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: last time we had him on the program. Hey Chuck,

330
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: Hey Dan, how are you? Oh doing great? A little

331
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: sad man, first time, long time, thanks five six hard one.

332
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: I became a Braves fan. Hey, first grade was at

333
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: the game. So a seven hundred home run. Played t

334
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: ball with Phil Negro's son Philip. And a great story

335
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: for you about Fulton County taking my kid back there

336
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: years ago. I know you've seen since uh that when

337
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: they flattened Fulton County Stadium and they still had the

338
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: section of the fence where Hank kid is seven fifteenth. Yeah,

339
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: it was still it's still erected, you know, out in

340
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 1: the parking lot. So I've got my son there, he's

341
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: about eight years old. We're sampling up next to the

342
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: fence with the big sign says seven fifteen, and his

343
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: mom's taking the picture and my son looks up and says,

344
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 1: what is this? I said, son, this is where Hank

345
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: Aaron hit his seven hundred and fifteenth home run. And

346
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: he looks at Turner Field in the distance, about four

347
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: hundred yards away. All the way out here. Now, that's

348
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: a good story. Thank you, Chuck. That's a good story.

349
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: You know, you start thinking about this when when the

350
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: first time you see somebody or the first time to

351
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: have an impact on you. And we've all had this

352
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: happen to us. When you know, depending on how old

353
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,479
Speaker 1: you are, you'll see somebody, or you get to go

354
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: to a game, you get an autograph, you get a

355
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: baseball card, a poster like, all of those things kind

356
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: of factor in on you know who these people are.

357
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: And I had not met Hank Aaron until he was

358
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: done playing baseball, I think. But for some reason, and

359
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: I don't know why, it might have been because the

360
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: Braves were always on. I remember that they had, you know,

361
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: Davy Johnson, the former manager, Darryl Evans. I think they

362
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: had three guys who hit forty home runs or more.

363
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: One year Ralph gar led off for them. You know,

364
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: they were just I don't know why I became so

365
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 1: familiar with the Braves, maybe because of the times that

366
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: they played against the Cincinnati Reds. But let me take

367
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: you back to April eighth of twenty twenty. This would

368
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: have been the forty sixth anniversary of Hanks seven hundred

369
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 1: fifteenth home run that made him the old time home

370
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: run King. And I started out the interview by asking, Hank,

371
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm fine, Dan, how are you? I'm

372
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: doing okay? I actually went back and I listened to

373
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: Vince Scully's call of the home run. When's the last

374
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: time that you sat down and watched that? Oh, my goodness,

375
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: has been a time. It's been a while. It has

376
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 1: been a long time, Dan, I haven't. I haven't watched

377
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: it that much. What do you remember about that night? Like,

378
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: is there something that never came out or something that

379
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: just special for you? Something before the game, after the

380
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 1: game that happened. Well, you know, the thing that I

381
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: remember most about that night was my mother. She she was,

382
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: she she was She was so enthused, she was so

383
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: happy and and when I hit the home run and

384
00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: got around the bases to home fleet, she grabbed me.

385
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: And I had never been hooked before in my life

386
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: like that. I did notice that that she was holding

387
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: on for dear life to you. She just didn't want

388
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: to let you go. No, she didn't. She she was

389
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 1: quite happy and I was, and I was thrilled. What

390
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 1: did you keep from that night? Uh? I think I

391
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: remember that night. I remember most was the fact that

392
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: what did you keep your uniform? Did you keep the

393
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: bad did you like? What? What memorabilia did you keep

394
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: from that night? I don't. I don't think I kept anything,

395
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 1: as as that's concern. Oh, I don't think. I don't

396
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: think I kept anything. I think I went home, Dan.

397
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,640
Speaker 1: I think I went home my wife and eye bowl

398
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 1: and we prayed and and I god forgiveness and thanked

399
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: him for everything that he had for me. And that's

400
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 1: good thing. I remember most. Did you thank him for

401
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 1: that pitch that Al threw to you that was up

402
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: in the strike zone? You know, you know a lot

403
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: of people talk about that pitch, but that was you know,

404
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,719
Speaker 1: you know, he was quite a picture. He won twenty

405
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: games before. Yeah, yeah, you know, he used to picture

406
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 1: to the anchors, and he was quite a picture. And

407
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: I had never had good luck against him, And for

408
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: some reason, it was the night that come calling and

409
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: I hit the home run off of it, and you

410
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: homered in Cincinnati off Jack Billingham. And then I think,

411
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: did booie Que and the commissioner want you to wait

412
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: to go to Atlanta or you wanted to wait to

413
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: go to Atlanta to try to set the record there.

414
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: He made you play that maybe the next day in Cincinnati.

415
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,439
Speaker 1: Does that sound right? He wanted me. He wanted me

416
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: to play the next day. Yes, he wanted me. And

417
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 1: still and stood and stood. Hit I'll opened a season up.

418
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 1: I hit the home run, and then I wanted to

419
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 1: wait and do the rest of it in in Atlanta here,

420
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 1: and he said no, He said, you by your record,

421
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: so you played every other day in so you should

422
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: played the day. How different would your career been if

423
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 1: you played in a bigger market. I think it would

424
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 1: have been a lot different. But then I don't know,

425
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: you know, I kind of were you a small market

426
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: guy like you were in Milwaukee and Atlanta. If if

427
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: I swapped you and Willie Mays or you in Mickey Mantle,

428
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 1: would your personality? Would you've done okay in New York

429
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: as opposed to Atlanta and in Milwaukee. I think I'd

430
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 1: have got along as very well. But I don't know

431
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: that I would have. I would have been the same

432
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 1: type of ball player that I was that I was

433
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee. Uh, Milwaukee was was made for me. I

434
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: loved Milwaukee. I was a country boy. Milwaukee was a

435
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: country city, and I just loved being in Milwaukee. What

436
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: other sports did you play growing up? I played. I

437
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: played a little basketball. Now I'm sorry, I'm sorry not basketball.

438
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: Think that back and looking at basketball. I played a

439
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: little football, played a little football. But other than that,

440
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 1: uh dan, I didn't play any other sport. I played baseball.

441
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: I was strictly a baseball player. I played baseball from

442
00:25:55,760 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: from eight years old until I got to be twelve

443
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 1: or eighteen. How good a running were you? Running back?

444
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: I could run, I could run to the well. I didn't.

445
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 1: I didn't have the the the feet like some of

446
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: these wide receiver was a running back to head? But

447
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: I could, I could, I could, I could make I

448
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: could make hay you can make do things. I could.

449
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: I could do things that I wanted to do. But

450
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: I also I think how much it was the most

451
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: you weighed one eighty Maybe I waited. I waited the

452
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: most that we was one eighting, Well, that was it.

453
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 1: I never weighed more than one eighty. I always if

454
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: I if I got one hundred and eighty five or

455
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: one hundred and ninety pounds, I was overweight. But you

456
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: have those quick risks like Mike Schmidt, and you were

457
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: the two guys. I just remember it was a flick

458
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: of the risk because you weren't a big guy. I

459
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: think your lower body was a little bigger. But how

460
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,719
Speaker 1: do you explain all of those home runs with not

461
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: being a big guy. I did most of my favorite

462
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 1: my risks for some reason. I don't know why, but

463
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 1: I had very strong hands and I had very strong risks,

464
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 1: and I did everything with my risk. Yeah, you did

465
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 1: it quite well. Forty six years ago. Tonight he hit

466
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: home run number seven fifteen. We're talking to Hank Karon.

467
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 1: You know we've talked about this before. You were kind

468
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: enough to share your feelings going into this that you

469
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: got letters, horrible letters. People didn't want a black man

470
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: breaking Babe Bruce all time home run record. And here

471
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: you are in the South, you hit the home run,

472
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: and then you have these two fans who run on

473
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:00,360
Speaker 1: the field as you're rounding second. What were you thinking, Yes,

474
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: these two kids ran on the field, and actually that

475
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 1: they meant nothing that they didn't need to do in

476
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: a harm to me. They had fit before the game

477
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 1: started that if I hit a home run, time present

478
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: itself that they were going to run home field and

479
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: make themselves presentable. It looked like they were trying to

480
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,959
Speaker 1: take off your batting helmet. Well, yeah, I don't know,

481
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,239
Speaker 1: you know, you know, and one of them came out

482
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: to be adopted, and then and they came out to

483
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: be pretty good citizens. Oh man, I cried that night

484
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 1: when you Homer. Now, I was watching in Cincinnati, and

485
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: of course I'm a big red machine guy. But yeah,

486
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: I had your poster up on the wall and I

487
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: just I still have that that. I think it was

488
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: McGregor that had the poster with every one of the

489
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: names of the pictures that you hit home runs off

490
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: of leading up to seven fifty. Do you remember that poster?

491
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: I don't remember that. Yeah, yeah, you know, Yeah, I

492
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: should send it to you. Thank you. I wish you would.

493
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: Do you collect memorabili at one if I go into

494
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: a little a little bit, I don't everything, you know,

495
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: everything that I have, that everything, everything, worryings, watches, anything

496
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: that I have, I've given it to Cooperstound. I give

497
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: everything I ever add to Cooper Sound. I don't own anything.

498
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: And somebody said, well, why why did you do that? Well,

499
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: I said it belongs to Cooper Sound. I said, I

500
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 1: played baseball before people before, lots and lots and lots

501
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 1: of people. And I said they belonged for them to enjoy.

502
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: They want to go to the Cooper Sound to look

503
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: at it, That's what they need to do. And I

504
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: also thought at the time when Bonds broke your record,

505
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: it was unfair to bring you into that. I always

506
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: felt bad about that. I don't know how you felt,

507
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: but it was like, who do you think is the

508
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: old time home run champ? Like I always viewed you

509
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 1: as the old time home run champ. He had more

510
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: home runs, You're the old time home run champ. That's

511
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 1: the way I always answered it. But what, thanks very much?

512
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: Did you feel uncomfortable when you were asked about that

513
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: with Bond? Like you were brought into it somehow, explained

514
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: Verry Bonds. I'm sorry I didn't hear you. It felt like,

515
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: you know, they were unfair in saying let me bring

516
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,719
Speaker 1: you in, like and what do you think of Bonds

517
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: breaking your record? And like they were bringing you into

518
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: a controversy there. I just they were they were, they

519
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: were and I and the only way that I could

520
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: get out of it was the fact that make a

521
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: statement and get it out of the way. Yeah, yeah,

522
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: Well it's great. How you been doing. I'm doing Okay,

523
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: I'm telling it. You know, I've been I've been watching

524
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: your show. You you're doing a magnificent job. Well, I'm

525
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: during the commercial break here, I'm going to go back

526
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 1: and if I can get a cameraman, I'm going to

527
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: show that poster to you. And I mean it. I'd

528
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: love to send it to you if but it's you

529
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 1: and it's McGregor Sporting Goods and it's got all your

530
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: your home runs that you hit. Do you remember that

531
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: first one? I do? What who did you hit it

532
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: off of? Big Rash? Okay? What did he throw? You?

533
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: I love you. You're a treasure and uh, you know,

534
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: I hope we get many more anniversaries to talk about this.

535
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: But thank you again. I know you're probably being inundated

536
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 1: with people wanting to talk to you on this anniversary,

537
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: and thank you. You always have a place in my heart.

538
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Danny. Good luck to you, God

539
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: bless you. That was from April eighth to twenty twenty,

540
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: and I'm glad we brought that back, you know, and

541
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: just hearing his laugh at the very end, what did

542
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: he what did he throw you Vic Rashie nothing balls

543
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: what he did? Oh rest in peace, Thank thank you break.

00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: We'll be back after this. Thanks for listening to The

Speaker 1: do a dedication end of the show tribute passing of

551
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: Hank Aaron, Don Sutton, also the former Packer GM Ted Thompson,

552
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: all in the span of forty eight hours. Still no

553
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: update on Patrick Mahomes, but I'm assuming he'll be out

554
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: of concussion protocol, considering he probably didn't have a concussion

555
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: but went through the protocol, and we'll probably get that

556
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 1: news here coming up shortly. Vegas is assuming Patrick Mahomes

557
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: is going to play this weekend. The betting line has

558
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 1: anything changed in these two games falling, No, not really.

559
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: Kansas City is still favored by three points, and that's

560
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: what it would be favored by if Mahomes is healthy.

561
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: They've never really taken that game off the board because

562
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 1: of mahomes status. The Green Packers are now a three

563
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: and a half point favor. Okay, Kansas City, do they

564
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: normally cover? Buffalo seems to cover, Yeah, Polly, I'm pretty

565
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: sure the Chiefs are on a non covering run, especially

566
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 1: the second half of the season. They've They've won a

567
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: lot of games by six points or fewer. I mentioned

568
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: there's such a fine line in these games that it

569
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: could be one play, it could be one person, it

570
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: could be somebody or something you never expected. But you

571
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: have this fine line. Of Brady's nine Super Bowl appearances,

572
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: which he won six, eight of the nine were one

573
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 1: score game games and the other one was tied midway

574
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 1: through the fourth quarter. Patrick Mahomes three postseason wins last year,

575
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs were down by double figures in all three games.

576
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: It takes a moment, it takes a defensive lapse. You

577
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: saw that with the Niners where they forgot where Tyreek

578
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: Hill was. But you have this situation where Jimmy Garoppolo

579
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: complete a pass and you win the Super Bowl second

580
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:33,280
Speaker 1: in five. They don't run, they pass, Chris Jones knocks

581
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: down a pass. Like these small things, or we would

582
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: be talking about Jimmy Garoppolo differently than we do now,

583
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,879
Speaker 1: and we wouldn't be looking at Patrick Mahomes the same

584
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 1: way because he did not play well in that Super Bowl. Yeah,

585
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: mcclem what about that bad calls to the New Orleans

586
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 1: mispass interference and the Dez Bryant catch jumped to mind. Yeah,

587
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 1: there's so many moments where we tend to look at

588
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: somebody's legacy and you go, he won this, or he

589
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 1: didn't win this, and then when you realized, when you

590
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 1: look at it closer, maybe there was just one play.

591
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: And here you have. You know, the point spreads are

592
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: field goals in these games, so you can imagine there

593
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 1: is going to be a moment that is going to

594
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,479
Speaker 1: decide this and it may not be with your star quarterbacks. Yeah, Polly,

595
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: but is it fair to say that nobody has more

596
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 1: to gain this weekend than Aaron Rodgers? He has it

597
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: early in his career. Super Bowl, he gets one. Now

598
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 1: he puts Brett Farve in his rearview mirror. As far

599
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: as a packer great, and now you're talking about the

600
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: all time great list. Aaron Rodgers is entrenched. Yeah, yeah,

601
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 1: separates himself from Brett Farve, you know, within the franchise.

602
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 1: But you separate yourself. You at least put yourself on

603
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: the level Ben Roethlisberger, Eli Manning. As far as the

604
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: number of Super Bowls, he's better than those two quarterbacks.

605
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: But if Josh Allen would win, like you want to

606
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: talk about, that changes everybody's perception of you. Like that's

607
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,760
Speaker 1: where you go, Oh my gosh, Josh Allen has truly arrived.

608
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: I think people are still a little apperhensive about jumping

609
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,479
Speaker 1: on that and saying he's absolutely positively going to be great.

610
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 1: He showed these glimpses, but the improvement that he made,

611
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: which is what you want to see years you know,

612
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 1: one to two or two to three. You want to

613
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: see if they make that jump. And Josh Allen became

614
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: a formidable force to deal with as far as quarterbacks go,

615
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 1: and game plan for him. That ability to run. The

616
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 1: thing that I would look for in the game is

617
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's running. How much does he run? How much

618
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: Willie run? Can Patrick Mahomes run? But if I'm Josh

619
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: Allen and I don't have a running game, I have

620
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 1: to be the running game because that, to me could

621
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: be the difference in the game. Yeah, poland Josh Allen

622
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: last year in sixteen games with a fifty eight percent

623
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 1: passer he threw for only three thousand yards. That's not nothing,

624
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: but for a quarterback starting sixteen games it is. He

625
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: had twenty touchdowns and nine picks. He up to it

626
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: to sixty nine percent passing yards thirty seven touchdowns, same

627
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: modo picks. NFL announced that this Super Bowl in Tampa

628
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: will host twenty two thou fans, seventy five hundred of

629
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 1: which will be vaccinated healthcare workers being given free tickets

630
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: to the game. Smart move by the NFL. There were

631
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: so many other things I wanted to get to. Then

632
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: we got the news a little more than an hour

633
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: ago that Hank Aaron had passed away. There was an

634
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: awkward exchange between Shaquille O'Neal and Donovan Mitchell of the

635
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 1: Utah Jazz, and this is what it sounded like. I

636
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: don't know what Shack was trying to do, but I

637
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: don't think it was mission accomplished. But this is a shot.

638
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: I said tonight that you are one of my favorite players,

639
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 1: but you don't have what it takes to get to

640
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: next level seven On purpose, I wanted you to hear it.

641
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 1: What do you have to say about that. That's it,

642
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 1: that's it, that's it kind of cool. I mean it,

643
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: I've been here. I've been hearing that since my rookie year.

644
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just going to that's why I want Okay,

645
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 1: he just finished a game they played, well, thrown a headset,

646
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: and then you listen to Shack say you don't have

647
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: what it takes to get to the next level. Just

648
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: wants you to know. I mean I like that. He okay,

649
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: you're fourth, right, but like it. It's awkward. Where where

650
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 1: did you think the interview was going to go from there? Now?

651
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: If you have those two sitting down and Shack says, hey,

652
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: you know, I've been tough on you. I wondered if

653
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 1: you had what it takes to get to the next level. Um,

654
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 1: you know, But there's ambient noise in the background, Like

655
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 1: it's just not you're not in the same room. You're

656
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: just listening to somebody say something to you, and it's

657
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:48,359
Speaker 1: Shack and you're going, all right, Like, I get it.

658
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: I've been told this since my rookie year. Here, I

659
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 1: don't know, came out of nowhere. Yeah pull Dotoman. Mitchell's

660
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 1: average of twenty four points and five assists a game.

661
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: He's twenty four years old. Yeah, things aren't going two parts.

662
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 1: And he was great in the bubble last year. You

663
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 1: know those showdowns with Denver, he went toe to toe.

664
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'd love to know what the conversation

665
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: was prior to or when they talked about this. You know,

666
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,359
Speaker 1: during the game, Hey, if Donovan Mitchell wins Utah wins,

667
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna have Donovan Mitchell on. You guys got your

668
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: questions ready. I don't know if anybody said, hey, what

669
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: are your questions? Just do you have questions? Yeah, mclovin,

670
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: it sounds like a question for a former number one

671
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 1: overall pick. Can nobody expected Donovan like he's twenty four, Like,

672
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 1: no One's like, oh my god, I can't believe Donovan

673
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: Mitchell hasn't want to title yet. Yeah. Yeah, the expectation

674
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: level is not you know, in a stratosphere here. Yeah,

675
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 1: unless Shack was somehow concerned that it would be awkward

676
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,280
Speaker 1: if it somehow got back to Donovan Mitchell and Mitchell

677
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: first that I heard what you said about me and

678
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 1: Shack He's like, let me just put it out there

679
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: and take ownership of it before it gets awkward that

680
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: he asks me about it. Well, I think you can.

681
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 1: You can do it, but do it in a more

682
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 1: sensitive way. I mean I've said to people, Hey, I

683
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 1: don't know if you've heard heard this, but I did

684
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 1: say this about you. I wanted to be upfront with you.

685
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,720
Speaker 1: But it almost felt like, Hey, you know decent game,

686
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: but you don't have what it takes to get to

687
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 1: the next level. Now. I mean, if I'm on the

688
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:19,360
Speaker 1: receiving end of that, I just got it. I just

689
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: had a good game. Somebody said, hey, TNT guys want

690
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,959
Speaker 1: to talk to you. Put on a headset. Hey Donovan, Chuck,

691
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: I don't think you have what it takes get the

692
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:33,359
Speaker 1: next level. I just want to let you know, all right. Yeah. See,

693
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't really come across in a like mentorship kind

694
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 1: of way, you know, like hey, I'm just trying to

695
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,399
Speaker 1: help you and give you a little motivation. Maybe that's

696
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: what Shack was meaning, but it really doesn't come across

697
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: that way. It felt more like, Wow, is this dude

698
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 1: being such a jerk? Yes, or he could have been

699
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: cute and said thanks for to support Shack. I'll try

700
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: not to let you down. I think I had a

701
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: pretty good game tonight at least, No if Donovan says, hey,

702
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 1: so what is it that I'm lacking or what am

703
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: I missing? But that's on Donovan. She'll to salvage the interview,

704
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't. That's not fair to him. Yeah what

705
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: if dot of it would bet a smart ass and

706
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: said to hey, Shack, let me hitch you up later

707
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: some for some free throw tips. How about that? Evan's awesome?

708
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 1: This danged sports history. Paulwood here and this day in

709
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 1: sports history. Nineteen ninety eight, the Minnesota enhail franchise nicknamed

710
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 1: the Wild. A lot of people still like the North Stars.

711
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 1: I think they did too great uniforms. This is the

712
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 1: big one. Two thousand and six, Kobe Bryant and the

713
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 1: Lakers scored eighty one points against the Toronto Raptors, the

714
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: second highest total in NBA history. I feel bad for

715
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,879
Speaker 1: Jalen Rose today. He was trending a little while ago

716
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,919
Speaker 1: because people are asking him about it. Yes, and Jayleen goes,

717
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:42,399
Speaker 1: I didn't guard him the whole time, and nobody did. Apparently, Yeah,

718
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 1: it's time. Do we still have proof of this? Will

719
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: Chamberlaine hundred. I know it's got that famous picture, but

720
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,640
