Let me go back to Ethan. 47 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: Ethan pointed out, with Major League Baseball starting tomorrow, the 48 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: best record by any team in a single season sixty 49 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: games span, which is what baseball is going to be 50 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: this year. The best mark in the modern era is 51 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: your twenty seventeen Los Angeles Dodgers who went fifty one 52 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: and nine. So you we're gonna have some interesting records 53 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: there to look at. But the fact that you have 54 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: teams that can win what mcloven, that's fascinating. Hold on 55 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: a second, let me just slap my cheek to stay 56 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: awake here for us these Okay, here's something else that Ethan, 57 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: our statisticians sent to me. By the way, that stat 58 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: there was one more stat than you've sent me today, 59 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: one more accurate. That's true. Twenty two players have hit 60 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: at least four hundred over a span of sixty games 61 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: in a single season. This is since two thousand. Now, 62 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: each year Row was batting in a sixty game span. 63 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: In two thousand and four, each Yarrow hit four sixty. 64 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: The Now, that's pretty impressive. Mcloven. Do you remember each 65 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: year O hitting four sixty over a sixty game span? Okay, 66 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: I've met this a little fascinating. Okay, I've got other 67 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: things in here. Wait, let me ask you a question. 68 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: If somebody hits four hundred, we get to care this 69 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: year or though? Does that count? No? Okay, but I'm 70 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: just pointing out over a sixty game span, it's happened 71 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: quite a few times. Here's something you probably didn't know, 72 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: but Ethan does. The Braves and Cubs will not play 73 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: each other during the regular season. The two franchises have 74 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: played from eighteen seventy six through twenty nineteen. So a 75 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: streak of one hundred forty four consecutive games, that streak 76 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: will be over. Is that interesting? McLevin. Okay, what other 77 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: thing too? This isn't clearly a company wide he said, 78 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: we all put together this list. This that's a team player. 79 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: That's like when I talk about the Danets. Yeah, and 80 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: maybe it's something Seaton. Did I talk about the Danets, 81 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: or if it's something that Fritzie did we talk about 82 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: the Danets. Yes, point, this guy's going nowhere if he 83 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: doesn't know how to take credit for the people's work 84 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: and get promoted off that. Oh okay, all right, So 85 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: Ethan has some more stats. He's got some stats on 86 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: Damian Lillard. I'll have that for you coming up as well. 87 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: Are you worried that people are going to nod off 88 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: and the drive off the side of the road if 89 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: you get more of these stats? No, that's using when 90 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: Todd starts talking. So wow, what five minutes, six minutes in? 91 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: We're going six minutes and sixteen seconds in first shot taken. 92 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: So do you think cost palm?

Does this remind you of 115 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: ESPN when I hear they have great STAT packages for 116 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: when you're on areas. Yes, yeah, the STAT department was great. Yes, yes, yes. 117 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: See there's a conspiracy theory going around right now that 118 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: Ethan is actually like Banksy, that he's that no one 119 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: knows who is a real not a real person, just 120 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 1: a conglomertive artists trying to sell their stuff. Well, the 121 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: original was Shakespeare. Shakespeare was the original Banksy Bill was 122 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: not real well Bill, there was a bill, but there 123 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: were a lot of other writers who wrote he stole 124 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: from um borrowed, oh I think it was. He got 125 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: credit for all of that. He was the Carlos Mencia 126 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: of medieval times. Wow, wow, Yeah Shakespeare. In fact, I 127 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: read a book who wrote Shakespeare? And there are all 128 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: these conspiracy theories about how many writers were writing under 129 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: the name Shakespeare. We went from Ethan to Banksy to Shakespeare. 130 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: That's about Dan Patrick se because if you get Dan 131 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: started on, if you get started on like who wrote 132 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: Shakespeare plays, then you'll lose a half hour hearing theories. Yeah, okay, 133 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: well I'm reading the da Vinci Code again, so I'm 134 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: all about conspiracies and codes, and you know, the smartest 135 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: man walked the planet, Da Vinci. So alrighty, welcome to 136 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: the program. Already in progress. As you can see, NFL 137 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: preseason canceled. What was it a month ago? We had 138 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: what four preseason games, and then it was down to 139 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: two preseason games. And then on Monday, I told you 140 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: it was going to be one preseason game, and here 141 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: we are no preseason games. You know, the fallout we 142 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: may not feel this until the regular season starts, but 143 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,679 Speaker 1: trying to make a team, even those who are coming 144 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: back from injuries or joining a new team, or you 145 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: have a new coach, new city, new team, it's going 146 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: to be an adjustment period for a lot of these teams. 147 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: Here was another thing that I saw and it was 148 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 1: on Yahoo Sports by Pete Thamil, and I wanted to 149 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: bring it to your attention because it's just something to 150 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: file away here when we start talking about testing with 151 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: the NFL and college football and the amount of time, 152 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: the minimum time that you must sit down is going 153 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: to be different in college football than it is in 154 00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: the NFL. The suggested minimum time away from the sport 155 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: for players or coaches, staff, etc. Who are exposed to 156 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: someone who has tested positive for the virus. In college 157 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: football it's fourteen days. In the NFL that time could 158 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: be as little as two days. And that's something to 159 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: factor in here as college football trying to come back, 160 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: and if you do have a couple of players they 161 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: test positive. And the difficult part here is you're trying 162 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: to make sure that you know the contact tracing rules. 163 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: That's going to be the challenge here. How many people 164 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: did you come in contact with, and fam Will lays 165 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: this out on Yahoo's Sports that it's going to be 166 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: really tough. It's going to be very difficult for college 167 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 1: football to Let's say you have fifteen guys sitting out 168 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: for two weeks, are you going to be able to 169 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: play a game? How many players will it take before 170 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: a team has to cancel a game? There? And you 171 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: might be missing two or three games, and you're already 172 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: going to have a limited schedule because a lot of 173 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: these conferences aren't going to have out of conference games. 174 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: But the contact tracing rules are determined by individual schools 175 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: with guidance from state and local government. The NCAA recommended 176 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 1: fourteen days of quarantine for anyone with a high risk 177 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: of exposure to COVID. This includes the opposing teams, so 178 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: hundreds of players and you could be isolated for two weeks, 179 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: and even if you don't have symptoms asymptomatic. So it's 180 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: going to be a very difficult situation for college football 181 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: to overcome. Not out of the realm of possibilities, but 182 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: the NFL, you could be back within as soon as 183 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: two days because they're testing every day, and then they'll 184 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: probably go to every other day. But once again, I 185 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: know we've had a lot of good news when it 186 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: comes to sports. You know, there's positivity with you know 187 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: what's going on with the NBA, with the NHL baseball 188 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: starting Thursday, maybe we have college football, the NFL. But 189 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: you know, this is still just back to reality here 190 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: of what these schools are facing here coming up. Yeah, Paul, 191 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: and this is the almost obvious thing, but the biggest 192 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: difference is if you're a professional basketball player or professional 193 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: football player, you know you have your home, or your 194 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: wife and kids, or your single you can stay alone 195 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: by yourself and not have anyone infringe on your space. 196 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: You can sequester yourself, basically quarantine yourself. If you're a 197 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: college football player, it's almost impossible. You're living in some 198 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 1: type of dorm or some type of apartment. The odds 199 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: of you living alone are almost zero on college. Yeah, 200 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: and that's where you go back to who did you 201 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: come in contact with and trying to figure that out. 202 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: This happened with Rudy Gobert when he was testing positive 203 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, who else was around 204 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: Rudy Gobert. Well, obviously everybody with Utah and Oklahoma city, 205 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: and then those people came in contact with people, then 206 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: the officials who were involved in the game, and then 207 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell tested positive. That's you know, that's the big 208 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: dilemma that college football is going to be facing this season. 209 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 1: But today is the calum before the storm for American 210 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: sports because starting tomorrow, hopefully we have six consecutive months 211 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: of teams competing. You got the Nationals against the Yankees 212 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: getting it started, Dodgers Giants, you got NBA, NHL in 213 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: a week or so, and then hopefully we have football. 214 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: And this is going to change your viewing patterns. Like 215 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: there were so many jobs around the house, Like my 216 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: honeydew list, it was a scroll. Are you all caught up? Oh? 217 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: I dominated? I dominated. The only thing I didn't make 218 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: or do that was on my list that my wife 219 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: made sour dough bread. It felt like everybody was making 220 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: sour dough bread. And she goes, hey, do you want 221 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: to do that? And I said, yeah, put it on 222 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: the list. You know, it's like down there, twenty fourth 223 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: on the list or something like that, and I'm just 224 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: checking them all off here, you know, cleaning this painting, 225 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: that did all these things so sour dough bread is 226 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: the only thing I didn't do. So I said to 227 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: my wife, I said, you know things that are gonna 228 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: change here. She goes, what do you mean by that? 229 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: I go, I got baseball coming up on Thursday, and 230 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: like I'm laying down the law. Are you retiring from 231 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: home project? I know everything's on hold. So I said, 232 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: you got me for today, but tomorrow you're gonna lose me. 233 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: I'm gone for about six months.

Yes, McLevin. 253 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: The reality hit me last night of trying to watch 254 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: a non Phillies baseball game on like the eleventh pitch 255 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: of it at bad with the Yankees Nationals. Is this 256 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: side of the glass gonna be able to do it? 257 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. We were talking a lot at baseball talk. 258 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: I'll mid July baseball games something we'd all watch. We wouldn't. 259 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: But this is the start of the season. Maybe how 260 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: many days is that last? Maybe a week, maybe a 261 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: little longer than the the NBA comes. But you know, 262 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: I'm watching the Astros where you know, you got two 263 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: guys getting plunked back to back, which was no coincidence 264 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: against the Royals. Bregman and al Twove got popped yesterday, 265 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: Springer got hit back to back to back. Three guys 266 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: ended up getting I watched my Marlins hit back to 267 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: back to back. Jack's I'm good, we're ready to go. 268 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: I'd like how Joey Vado Cincinnati Red said, you know, 269 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: whoever came up with this piping in crowd noise is 270 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: not a baseball player. And my point is, you know, 271 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: we want to have ambiance. We want to have some 272 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: ambience sound there for these baseball games. I don't need it, 273 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: but do we do? We pipe in sound for when 274 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: the Marlins play a home game because there's nobody there, 275 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: but we don't go. Yeah, we gotta dress this up 276 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: a little bit here, or if a Mariners game is 277 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: on and you got, like, you know, ninety two people 278 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: in there, we don't go. We can need cardboard cutouts 279 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: and we need some we need sound in there. Yeah, 280 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: when you're watching games soccer baseball, you'll notice that the 281 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: piped in sound doesn't match. Like in a soccer match, 282 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: a guy will do a great move to get past 283 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: the defender and you'll hear the crowd does nothing. They 284 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: have no reaction, while they'd be like, oh if this 285 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: was you know, in baseball, guy makes a great catch 286 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: and you hear, you're gonna hear nothing. And look at 287 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: that unbelievable catch there, and here's the two two, and 288 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: that'll do it. Mike Trout has just hit a three 289 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: run homer and a perfect game by Justin Burlander. Fan 290 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: seem a little disinteresting. I don't know if they paid attention. 291 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: You need to have a guy who rides the levels 292 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: there where you can go, oh, something great happen. Remember 293 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: them in Bull Durham where you have the guy doing 294 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: the radio call and then he'd go, you know, he'd 295 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: hate hit something and Aaron amaze head. Yeah, you need 296 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: a guy like this, Dan, give me a Mike Trout 297 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: three or on home run call, just like do you 298 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: call Mike Troup? Okay, and here's the wind up in 299 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 1: the pitch from sure, sir. Oh there's a drive. Oh 300 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: that's gone. Oh that's it. Mike Trout has jotting number 301 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: nineteen on the year. Mike Trout the best player in baseball. 302 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: Our owners a polite applause. Yeah, it's gonna be a 303 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: lot of room for error. Yeah, sound effects there too, 304 00:17:54,080 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: and city let's go oh wait. I'd rather not have 305 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: any sound than to have them put in sound that Okay, 306 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 1: that was l Twovee yesterday when he got hit. I 307 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 1: like the sound, I do. I like the sound in 308 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: the games. But but soccer has only a couple of 309 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: moments where the crowd needs to rise or would rise 310 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: normally and react. Baseball if somebody hits a home run 311 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: or somebody has a great player, like, there's so many 312 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: that's not gonna work. I don't think, is it probably not? Yes? 313 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: How does it work on a blatant bad call? I 314 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: know the manager of coaches, they can't get me the 315 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: umpire's face. There's no crowd reaction at all to what 316 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: we all saw. It was a horrible call that could 317 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 1: determine the outcome of a game. How weird? Is that's 318 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: why I don't want to have that sound in there. 319 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: I just let me just watch should and that's not 320 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: a good either. Oh wait a minute, who put the 321 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: NBA sound effects in the baseball Dang it? Remember when 322 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: we did that for Augusta when Jim Nance was on. 323 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 1: Oh it's a tradition. Unlike anyway, Augusta suddenly on the beach. Yeah, 324 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: Raised Creek has some waves in it.

It will be used in 392 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: empty stadiums amid the COVID nineteen pandemic.

I'm not gonna 402 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: judge you. I'm not. I promise I would not. I 403 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: just got this. An update from the Pelicans. Zion Williamson 404 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,199 Speaker 1: is not back with the team in the bubble. We 405 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: do not have a set date for when he will return, 406 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: although we may have more information in the coming days. 407 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: His quarantine period and return to play status will be 408 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: determined by the NBA based on league protocol pending various factors. 409 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: So he left due to a family emergency. Patrick Beverley 410 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 1: has left the Clippers due to a family emergency. But 411 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: Zion is not back with the team. And keep in mind, 412 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: it felt like the NBA was trying to roll out 413 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: this expanded playoffs basically because they want to get Zion 414 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: on TV. They loaded up, they loaded up those games 415 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: early in the season so you could see Zion Williamson 416 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: and then Zion of course was coming back from injury, 417 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: and they want to make sure they get some Zion 418 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: on TV here best they can for as long as 419 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: they can. Yes, talk and for those keeping score at home, 420 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 1: the NBA restarted in just eight days from real yep. 421 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: And they just have to get into that four team tournament. McLevin. 422 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: I actually they have to be within four games of 423 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: the eighth seed. But is there four teams No. I 424 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: think it's just as many teams are close in the Sandies. 425 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 1: I'll get the role so confused. The East is easy, 426 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: these early nine teams there. The West is more tricky. 427 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: You know, we've been waiting for sports and then we 428 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 1: kind of forget the rule changes. We were talking about 429 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: this prior to the start of the show because McLevin 430 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: goes is the NFL expanded playoffs this year, and I 431 00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: go no, I think it's next year. I couldn't remember 432 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: because I thought it was going to coincide with seventeen 433 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: game schedule, And now all of a sudden, it's not 434 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 1: the seventeen game schedule. Playoffs are going to be expanded 435 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 1: this year. It's a seventeen game schedule next year. And 436 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: then you got the DH in the National League. And 437 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: yes there'll be a runner on second base in extra 438 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: innings as well. Yeah, speckleven. Is the MLB playoff format 439 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: the same, even though the schedules have changed a lot. 440 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: Like I know, the Phillies played the Yankees a lot. 441 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: Are they still in the NL East with the Braves 442 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 1: and the Mets? They are, right, like I think they 443 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: went back to division. Does this make any remember they 444 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: was talking about three ten team division. Yes, that's not happening, right, 445 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't think they're either, but 446 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: I don't think so. But I'm not sure sixty games 447 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: that's gonna be wild. Wasn't there some documentation that proved 448 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: that I was right that the NFL was expanding the 449 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: playoffs back in twenty fourteen, so I was researching this 450 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: this morning. You know, I do actually do research. Oh, whoa, 451 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: that's breaking news. Anyway, twenty forty, the NFL decided on 452 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: expanding the playoffs, then pulled it back at the last 453 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: second so they could hold it as a marketing chip, 454 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 1: which reminded us of when you broke in two thousand 455 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 1: fourty that the playoffs. I came back breathlessly because that 456 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: was a Thursday night game season opener, and I took 457 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: a red eye back that night. I left it halftime 458 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: after doing my duties for NBC, and I took the 459 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 1: red eye, and I think I joined you guys in 460 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: New York and I came in and I was like, Hey, 461 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: they're expanding the playoffs. I just heard a great source 462 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: told me they're going to expand and expand the playoffs. 463 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, it kind of floated 464 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: out there, and then people started asking the commissioner and 465 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: it just went away. And then it felt like every year, 466 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: I go, yeah, they're going to expand the playoffs this year, 467 00:27:56,080 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: And finally there's documentation. Somebody reported that back in twenty 468 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: fourteen they were going to do. Because my source was 469 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: telling me all of these things that were going to 470 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: happen in the NFL. You know, they were going to 471 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 1: reduce drug testing for marijuana. You know, they were gonna 472 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: upgrade their HGH testing, they were going to expand the 473 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: player even telling me all these things, and I go, 474 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: hold on, I got to write this stuff down. And 475 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: I came in on that Friday morning and I'm like, man, 476 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: here you go. Look what I got for you. I 477 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: can't believe Roger would do that. No, it wasn't the commissioner. 478 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: I actually wondered if the NFL saw you break that 479 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: story and just to get at you to change their mind. 480 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: Do you think the commissioners said, oh, Dan Patrick's got 481 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: the information, we're gonna table that. We're gonna table that. 482 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: For a while, it crossed your mind, admit it. No, 483 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: he doesn't even know I exist. That's not true. Yeah, 484 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: he knows I exist. Yeah, maybe he comes on one 485 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: of these days. Yeah, when there's a filling host. Is 486 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: that the last time he came on? Think it was 487 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: a Ross Tucker experience. And then for see what was 488 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: the other one. Maybe Mike Floryds. Yes, Flora, that is 489 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: just a cool wincidence. He's still on the Dead Patrick Show. 490 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: I guess that's true. Yeah, you go back to the 491 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: Mothership A Rod's last appearance when Trey Wingo is filling 492 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: in for you. That's just a coolincidence. Here's the key. 493 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: I don't take any more days off, No more days 494 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: off for anybody, so I don't miss out on A 495 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: Rod and the Commissioner just a quinciance the last three 496 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: times he's been on, I haven't been working that day. 497 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: All righty mclov and, you got a pull question for me? Yeah, 498 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: we already have one up. There's one option off our guestless. 499 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,959 Speaker 1: I was wondering if we could put up which do 500 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: you who do you think Phil sim to former Giants quarterback, 501 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: is more proud of Chris Simms or Matt Simms if 502 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: we had him in an honest moment. Are we allowed 503 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: to put that up from Queen? I don't know. I 504 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: wrote that out this morning. Okay, why why would he 505 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: be proud of Matt Simms? Well, Matt had a long 506 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: backup career. I don't know. Chris comes up with some 507 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: maybe doesn't like Chris's Quarterback list thinks he's too mean 508 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: to be. I will ask Chris Simms who his dad 509 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: likes more, him or his brother. So do we admit 510 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: that parents have favorites? I think it at times you 511 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: have favorites. It, you know, they're just times when you're 512 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: gonna go Like, my wife and my son had about 513 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: a three year window where it was not good that 514 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: they were talking to each other through me. So they 515 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: would send a message to me to send to the 516 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: other one. And I remember my wife, she, you know, 517 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: I love that she can be the bad cop. And 518 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: you know, she would say to my son, hey, will 519 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: you put your put your clothes away? Like he'd just 520 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: come in from school and take off his sweatshirt and 521 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 1: leave it on the kitchen chair or table. And she 522 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: asked him like three times. And so he came home 523 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: one day and he goes, why are all my clothes 524 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: outside in the yard. It was a winter, And she said, 525 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: because you didn't hang him up. She had no There 526 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: were no issues whatsoever with the discipline when it came 527 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: to tough love. Yeah, see, so that kind of thing 528 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: goes away, Yes, it does. It does. We're battling similar 529 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: issues in the house with my ten year old son. 530 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: And I remember, well, you know, having four kids and 531 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: my wife trying to get everybody off to school, and 532 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: they're all within seven years of each other. So you 533 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: can imagine if you got a ten year old and 534 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: a three year old and then you got a five 535 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: year old and a seven year old, and they're all 536 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: there in the kitchen and my son wanted he wanted 537 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: some kind of eggs, and he just was, you know, complaining, 538 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: and just kept complaining, and my wife meanwhile was trying 539 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: to get all of them out the door. And she 540 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: finally says, you want your eggs, and he's like, yes, 541 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: I want my eggs. She picked up an egg right 542 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: off the forehead. Yeah, picked up another one right off 543 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: the forehead, but she threw it for across the room 544 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: or right up against his head, like cracked it. She 545 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: was probably two feet away. So it was like, there's 546 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: your egg boom, there's your egg boom, there's your egg boom. 547 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: That ended that he didn't ask for his eggs like 548 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:27,239 Speaker 1: that anymore. So that's tough love. Tough love. I think 549 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: he switched his cereal just so it'll be safer there. 550 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: It's so you have these moments where your kids will 551 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: drive you crazy and then somebody else is like a 552 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: perfect angel, and then that changes. Though it's fluid. You'll 553 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: have favorites or least favorites. Yeah, we do have the 554 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: the whole question we discussed pre show about team ownership 555 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: with the Minntour te woll it's up for sale, yeah, 556 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: Tea's that Okay, Yeah, we have that ready to go 557 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: whatever you want. Yeah, because I'm wondering if if you're 558 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: a billionaire, do you want to own a team? And 559 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,479 Speaker 1: is it a team? Let's say it's a team you 560 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: grew up and you loved, do you want to own 561 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: that team? May get a couple of phone calls in here, 562 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: then we'll take a breakout of Play of the day 563 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: coming up. Eric and Florida joins us. Eric, good morning. 564 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 1: What do you have for me? Yes, six foot two pounds. 565 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: My question for you, Dan is what does Zion have 566 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: to accomplish in his career to not be considered a bust? Well, 567 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: I think given the hype, not just being the number 568 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 1: one player, because we've seen number one players who are 569 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: good but not great, But if you take away injuries, 570 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: I think Zion has got to be a guy who 571 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: is going to put up you know, his career stats 572 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: are going to be at least twenty ten for you know, 573 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: and for a long period of time. But twenty three 574 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: points this year. And that's a lot stronger than I 575 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: thought he would be because he doesn't have a refined 576 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: offensive game. Yet it's still explosive. It's still he gets 577 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: in the lane, he goes left, predominantly, doesn't have a 578 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 1: jumper gutty mountain transition. You know, he's going to provide 579 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: you with some excitement. He's going to have to be 580 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: a twenty thousand point guy, probably because of the hype 581 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: that's surrounding him. Now. This isn't like a normal number 582 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: one overall pick. This is a guy who is supposed 583 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 1: to be maybe the next great player in the NBA. Yeah, mclub, 584 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 1: if he had Blake Griffin's career, would that be a 585 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 1: disappointment or would that be good? You'd have to break down. 586 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: We'll take a break. I want to look at Blake's 587 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 1: because I said that when he came out that he 588 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: might be more like Blake Griffin. Blake wasn't a great shooter, 589 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 1: but he was a good enough shooter and then became 590 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 1: a three point shooter and a better free throw shooter 591 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: as well, and he was very explosive, felt like he 592 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Blake Griffin has had a pretty good career. 593 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 1: I don't know where he is now as far as 594 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: his health, but you know, I hadn't been to the finals. 595 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: He played on a counted Clippers team and they were 596 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: disappointed that team was good enough to win a title 597 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: or at least compete for one. But I'd have to 598 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: look at his numbers because I think he's He's probably 599 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: a good twenty two and ten I think, But let 600 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: me take a break. We'll come back and examine that. 601 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: It's an interesting question, and Play of the Day is 602 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: up next to as well here on The Dan Patrick Show. 603 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast.

I mentioned Blake Griffin 609 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: is a good comparison to Zion Williams, and those were 610 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: the numbers I was looking at for Zion this year. 611 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: Blake averaged twenty two and twelve as a rookie six 612 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: All Star games in eleven seasons, hasn't advanced to the 613 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: second round of the playoffs since twenty fourteen. Twenty fifteen. 614 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: Zion is not back with the team. We learned that 615 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: this morning. They don't have a set date for when 616 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: he will return. They're going to have more information in 617 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: the next couple of days, and then the quarantine period 618 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: is going to be the tricky part. Return to play 619 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 1: status determined by the NBA on league protocol at pending 620 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: various factors there. But if you said Zion had six 621 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: All Star appearances in eleven seasons and average twenty two 622 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 1: and twelve, I'm going to guess people would think that 623 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: was a disappointment. I think you have to get into 624 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: the postseason because then, I mean, you start there, we 625 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: move backwards. You start with championships or appearances in the 626 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: NBA Finals or a conference championship. You work your way 627 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: back and then you could get to the regular season stuff. 628 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: But greatness is defined by getting into the postseason. You know, 629 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 1: Will Chamberlain was a better basketball player than Bill Russell, 630 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: but Bill Russell won. If those were reversed, there would 631 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: be no conversation. If Will Chamberlain had eleven titles, he 632 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: would be the greatest player, and Michael Jordan would be 633 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: a footnote when you're talking about greatest players of all time. 634 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: When you win, we elevate you. When you don't, we 635 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: demote you. We take you down from the pedestal. And 636 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: Blake Griffin has not been a guy who can make 637 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: a deep run. Can Zion carry a team in the postseason, 638 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: And that's how he's going to be defined because of 639 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 1: the hype, not just being the number one overall pick. 640 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: It's the hype that's gone along with this. Yeah point, 641 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,240 Speaker 1: But if you compared into a guy like Tim Duncan, 642 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 1: it's apples and orange. Of their games aren't the same. 643 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 1: But Tim Duncan was never a stat guy. Tim Duncan 644 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 1: never led a league in any stat Ever, his career 645 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: averaged Tim Duncan is nineteen and ten. That doesn't blow 646 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 1: anybody's doors off. But he was always relevant, unstoppable, a 647 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,399 Speaker 1: team player. He won, won a truckload of rings. He won, 648 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: and that if Zion's average twenty two and ten with rings, 649 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: it's not twenty two and ten anymore, No, because you 650 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't even know Tim Duncan's career stats because he was 651 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: never that guy that put up these big numbers, but 652 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 1: he was on a team that won. And I think 653 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: that's going to be the key for Zion Williamson. You 654 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: can go twenty five and twelve and five assists, but 655 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: if you're bowling out in the second round, people are 656 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: going to look at that as a disappointment. You know, 657 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: Dominique Wilkins was unbelievable as explosive as Zion. Never made 658 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: it to a conference championship Hall of Famer. What twenty 659 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: eight thousand points but and all kinds of highlights, but 660 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: he didn't do anything well. They always had the Celtics 661 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: usually in his way. All speaking of NBA teams, did 662 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: you see where the Jordan logo? The Jordan Jumpman is 663 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: going to be on NBA jerseys next year, So the 664 00:38:55,600 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: Pistons have to have the Jordan logo. I just I 665 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,240 Speaker 1: would love to know what Bill Lane Beer and Isaiah Thomas, 666 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: Joe Dumars, those guys who are thinking when they see 667 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: the Pistons jerseys and you're gonna have Jordan's logo on 668 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: there is just spicy man, so good, so good. That's great. Yes, Todd, 669 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: did the Bulls have to put bad boys in a 670 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 1: little stitching on the corner? They just gotta even it 671 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: up a little bits terrible. No, they are bad. The 672 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: Bulls are bad, but it has nothing to do with 673 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 1: being the bad boys. Look at sharp fellas. Yeah, I'd 674 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: rolling right into that first game, look at good boys. Yeah. 675 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: Jordan may want to show up for that first game 676 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: with the Pistons. Yeah, I just want to see this 677 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: here that maybe they'll let him be like Red Arbock 678 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: and let him smoke a cigar in the arena. Is 679 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: fire up a cigar? Oh? Look at the Pistons. They 680 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 1: got my I got my logo on there. Dog at 681 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,400 Speaker 1: North Carolina, Hi dog, what do you have for me today? Well? 682 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 1: This is hey Dan. This is back on the topic 683 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: of pumping in crowd noise. When my son was a 684 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: little bit younger, he used to turn down the volume 685 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: and do play by play for baseball in the household, 686 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: and everything was his home run call. There's a long fly, Oh, 687 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: it's caught by the outfielder. And I'm bringing that up 688 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: because I read an article about your former colleague Charlie 689 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 1: Steiner that I guess he's having some health problems, and 690 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: we've decided that. I guess they set up a booth 691 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: in his house. And I'm wondering, you're doing these broadcasting schools. 692 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: How in the world can you announce something if you're 693 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: not there. It's really difficult, Doug, And thanks for the 694 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: phone call. I can't imagine now they do it in 695 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: the Olympics. I was able to go to London and 696 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: Rio and Sochi. But for some of the smaller sports 697 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: you would have some of the analysts, they would be 698 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: in Stanford, Connecticut. They would be calling judo and they 699 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't be there. I couldn't imagine trying to host something 700 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: where I wasn't there to kind of soak it all in. 701 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 1: And we hope Charlie is doing better. But baseball is 702 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: about that smell that yield the sounds, and to not 703 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 1: have that, I mean, you lose a little bit, but 704 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,879 Speaker 1: you're gonna find that with the NBA. You know, those 705 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,240 Speaker 1: announcers I don't think are going to be in the bubble. 706 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 1: Reggie Miller, I think we'll join us next week. We'll 707 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 1: talk to him about the whole setup there. Just got 708 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: this from Ethan. Our stats guy, Blake Griffin has missed 709 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: two hundred and forty eight games in his career, so 710 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,720 Speaker 1: that's more than three full seasons, including the entire season 711 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 1: after he was drafted the nine and twenty and ten. Yes, mcclemen, 712 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: remember he punched his friend and missed the season. Oh yes, 713 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 1: that's the ultimate, oh blemish on his career. Yeah, but 714 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: that was like a was he a manager or yeah, 715 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: team manager? Yeah, something like that. By the way, happy 716 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:54,800 Speaker 1: eightieth birthday to Alex Trebek. He's got a book out now, 717 00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 1: but I hope he's doing well. We've had correspondence and 718 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 1: I hope it's a happy eightieth birthday Alex. More phone 719 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: calls coming up. We'll talk to Chris Simms from NBC Sports, 720 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: and Damian Lillard, Blazer's guard, will join us. Coming up 721 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: as well. We've settled on a poll question, Phone calls, emails, tweets, 722 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: all welcome, Seaton, Paul Fritzie Mclevenyars. Truly, this is the 723 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick Show.
