Speaker 1: on the situation in Buffalo. They're expecting on the lower
Speaker 1: end of three feet of snow for this weekend's game.
Speaker 1: All I know is Jim Cantor from the Weather Channel
Speaker 1: is headed to Buffalo, so you know there's trouble on
Speaker 1: the way, Yes, PAULI. The forecast says the weather's going
Speaker 1: to hit tonight, and according to Kantori and other local broadcasters,
Speaker 1: they say thirty six to forty eight inches in the
Speaker 1: Buffalo area. I guess the Lake effect goes right through
Speaker 1: there like a like a funnel. And about eight years
Speaker 1: ago they had sixty five inches in like a three
Speaker 1: day spanner four day span. And then I wonder if
Speaker 1: they're going to be able to or if they're going
Speaker 1: to have to move this game. Can they move it
Speaker 1: to Detroit? Could they move it to Toronto, But we'll
Speaker 1: keep an eye on that. It's kind of a fluid situation.
Speaker 1: They can't do Monday night, by the way, because then
Speaker 1: Buffalo plays on Thursday, plays on Thanksgiving, and you have
Speaker 1: to have more time than just two days to prepare.
Speaker 1: But I'd love to have a snow game. I was
Speaker 1: watching Maction last night. Had some snow central Michigan. There
Speaker 1: a lot of snow there headed towards Buffalo. You have
Speaker 1: the game coming up tonight at green Bay, green Bay
Speaker 1: and the Titans, and then you start to wander what
Speaker 1: green Bay team is going to show up tonight and
Speaker 1: the Titans are still there. We're not talking about the Titans.
Speaker 1: They got a great coach. I love Jeffrey Simmons. This
Speaker 1: is one of those games of standalone games where it
Speaker 1: feels like everything that happens tonight it'll be open for
Speaker 1: discussion tomorrow because we'll talk about Aaron Rodgers, we'll talk
Speaker 1: about their wide receivers, we'll talk about their running game.
Speaker 1: The Titans. You may talk about Ryan Tannehill. You're going
Speaker 1: to talk about Jeffrey Simmons. He's a defensive tackle. If
Speaker 1: not for Aaron Donald, we would talk about him a
Speaker 1: lot more. I don't know why. I love these defensive linemen,
Speaker 1: these defensive tackles, nose tackles. But really that's where things
Speaker 1: get disruptive when you when you think, oh, I got
Speaker 1: to have an edge rusher. If you said I could
Speaker 1: have an edge rusher, or I could have somebody who
Speaker 1: is going to disrupt everything up the middle, I want
Speaker 1: the guy who disrupts everything up the middle because you
Speaker 1: get your quarterback off his mark. He affects the running game.
Speaker 1: But Jeffrey Simmons probably won't be talked about a lot
Speaker 1: or leading up to this, but I think after the
Speaker 1: fact will be he's a wonderful player. Aaron Rodgers at home.
Speaker 1: They just scored thirty one on a very good Dallas defense.
Speaker 1: They ran the football and it won't take much for
Speaker 1: them to get back into the wild card picture here.
Speaker 1: But you're four and six and you're trying to figure
Speaker 1: out you know, everybody says the same thing, Oh the
Speaker 1: running game, that style of offense. Is it sustainable week
Speaker 1: to week? I don't know. I mean, how many offenses
Speaker 1: are sustainable week to week? But you got the Titans
Speaker 1: coming up, then, do they have the Eagles after that, PAULI, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's too tough, man. But then they eased up a little.
Speaker 1: They got the Bears Rams, but then tough ones versus
Speaker 1: Dolphins and Vikings. How many wins do you think would
Speaker 1: be the minimum to get into the wild card picture
Speaker 1: in the NFC? And by the way, the Titans are
Speaker 1: in first place now, we don't. I think everybody thought
Speaker 1: it was going to be the Colts the team to beat,
Speaker 1: and maybe that happens, you know, under the new and
Speaker 1: improved leadership of Jeff Saturday. Yes, yes, the wildcard's gonna
Speaker 1: be kind of tough because like, the Giants are seven
Speaker 1: and two, Dallas Cowboys are six and three, nine Ers
Speaker 1: are five and four. So those guys are all ahead
Speaker 1: of you. Even the Commanders are five and five, are
Speaker 1: ahead of the Packers. Right now, they have at least
Speaker 1: four teams ahead of them for the wild card spots. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and even though the NFC feels down, you still have
Speaker 1: you know, the do the Giants drop off a little bit?
Speaker 1: Cowboys Cowboys gonna add OBJ? I you know, I haven't
Speaker 1: heard anybody else say, you know, we're in the running
Speaker 1: for OBJ and that's that would concern me. If I'm
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and I want ob J because I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna change everything and fix all of what ails us.
Speaker 1: You know, does Kansas City go Whyn't you come on
Speaker 1: in here? Do you want to play for a ring?
Speaker 1: You want to have some playoff checks? Come on in?
Speaker 1: I think Dallas? Okay, come in play for the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1: Certainly get a lot of publicity there. But you don't
Speaker 1: want to have January off. You know you'd like to
Speaker 1: You'd like to be able to get in the mix
Speaker 1: and play played deep into the postseason. Would you go
Speaker 1: to Tampa Buffalo? You may not want to go to
Speaker 1: Buffalo this weekend. You know that's where it will be
Speaker 1: Jay's going away. What do they get there? It's three
Speaker 1: for you to snow Dallas plays indoors. That sounds a
Speaker 1: little bit more encouraging. Setan what's the poll question today
Speaker 1: on this award nominated program. Here's a classic Pauly question.
Speaker 1: You'd rather live in Buffalo, New York or Yuma, Arizona,
Speaker 1: snow versus heat? Okay, Paulo, you want to give your reasons,
Speaker 1: So would you rather live in the snowiest city in America?
Speaker 1: Which is Buffalo, New York. There are the town city
Speaker 1: like Syracuse. Syracuse. I think that gets the most snow.
Speaker 1: But let's say you could live in Buffalo, New York,
Speaker 1: where you're gonna get lots of cold, lots of snow,
Speaker 1: or the hottest town in America, or city where it
Speaker 1: has enough people to be a city, Yuma, Arizona, where
Speaker 1: it's just hot all the time. I'd rather live in Buffalo.
Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, would anyone go with the hotspot? I
Speaker 1: guess we'll move on. Well, wait a minute, would you
Speaker 1: rather live in Yuma, Arizona? I can't stand hot weather.
Speaker 1: They should call it humid Arizona. I've been there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a dry heat. Yeah, it is a dry heat. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't you know, if you've been to Buffalo, there's
Speaker 1: just something about that city that I love. You know,
Speaker 1: it's it's a blue collar city. What if they didn't
Speaker 1: have a football team. What if you live in Buffalo
Speaker 1: there is no bills there? That would be tough. Well,
Speaker 1: you still have wings, Yes, you still have the wings, baby,
Speaker 1: okay Ton? All right? Yeah? Your University of Buffalo, Yeah yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: morph Rick James is from Buffalo. If that means anything,
Speaker 1: it doesn't thank you know, no idea when you fly
Speaker 1: into the Buffalo Airport is the is they're like, you
Speaker 1: know how they always have the famous people or whatever.
Speaker 1: Is there Rick James statue? That'd be awesome. Oh, I hope, so,
Speaker 1: I hope it's a statue of Rick James somewhere. Buffalo says,
Speaker 1: I'm Rick James. Yeah, Rick James, Buffalo. That's a funny bit.

Speaker 1: We think in body, I don't know about spirit from
Speaker 1: his trip to sen One, Puerto Rico and bad Larry
Speaker 1: and Dylan the Titans. So it's around three to three
Speaker 1: and a half here that they're getting tonight over under
Speaker 1: his forty one and the Packers plus three hundred to
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. By the way, odds to score a
Speaker 1: touchdown at any time on Thursday Night Football, The best
Speaker 1: odds to score a touchdown? Todd, I'll start with you.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, Derrick Henry, Derrick Henry, No, that's a lie. No,
Speaker 1: it's the truth, isn't It's not true, it's a lie. Whatever,
Speaker 1: those odds are wrong, all right, Marv. Aaron Jones, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones. Then Derrick Henry. Who wants to guess who's
Speaker 1: third best odds to score a touchdown tonight? No? A
Speaker 1: J Dillon ye Winner. Wait, how can Stefan dig score touchdowns?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, so he must be way down if he
Speaker 1: scores tonight. It has nothing to do with football. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you see what I did with that time? All right?
Speaker 1: I said it so authoritatively, though you kind of went
Speaker 1: past it. First Starred and then Christian Watson. You know,
Speaker 1: is uh those are the ons there, Roberts, who were
Speaker 1: the famous people from Buffalo? Glad you asked Jim James,
Speaker 1: Rick James, Tim Russer, Okay, Tim russ Yeah, Rob Grinkowski
Speaker 1: of course. Uh. Let's see Kyle Chandler, he was on
Speaker 1: uh Friday Night one Lights. He's the coach. Christian von
Speaker 1: Latner yep, yeah, he was outside there and see um
Speaker 1: run low David Boians. He was on that show bones
Speaker 1: famous actor. Yeah, Nick mca, you know that's and there's
Speaker 1: a bunch more push What other poll questions do we have,
Speaker 1: Sean o'cah I've got one that's might be mean spirited,
Speaker 1: one that's more traditional to what we do. Let's go
Speaker 1: mean spirited. Okay, better coach in their field Jimmy Johnson
Speaker 1: coach kuh coach k he was a better coach, well, Jimmy.
Speaker 1: I think Jimmy only coach nine years in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Good nine years though, Yeah, I think he's five with
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, four with the Dolphins. Plus didn't he replace
Speaker 1: Tom Landry and Don Shula? That's not bad, could you? Boss?
Speaker 1: Like nobody's ever done that? Now, he didn't win a
Speaker 1: super Bowl with Miami. But Jimmy's gonna join us next hour.
Speaker 1: But I mean, coach K is the greatest, you know,
Speaker 1: college coach of all time? Or he's there with John Wooden.
Speaker 1: I guess it sort of cancels out. Then whose career
Speaker 1: would you? Yeah? I don't know. There's something to be
Speaker 1: set for Jimmy Johnson Joe, because that's Jimmy's got a
Speaker 1: good gig going. He cast a pretty long shadow over
Speaker 1: a certain organization that's still trying to find their way out.
Speaker 1: Hey nah, yeah now the you yeah, go back to
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. But yeah, Jimmy, when Jimmy coaches, he leaves
Speaker 1: his mark there. I wonder if Barry Switzer ever says
Speaker 1: to Jimmy thank you, or Jimmy ever says to Barry Switzer, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're welcome. I basically gave you a super Bowl Wait,
Speaker 1: get not. Basically he gave him a super Bowl team.
Speaker 1: But that should have been Jimmy's I'm hearing a very
Speaker 1: disappointing update to a story we've been covering. Dan. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: I don't believe there's a Rick James statue in the
Speaker 1: Buffalo airport. Should we crowdsource one? Do you want to
Speaker 1: get a go fund me going so we could properly?
Speaker 1: I don't know if enough people realize that Rick James
Speaker 1: was from Buffalo, which is a problem, that's a real
Speaker 1: problem for Buffalo. Yes time. If they do have this
Speaker 1: recorded message when you land at the airport, Hey, you
Speaker 1: super freaks, welcome to Buffalo. Freak gang. Ye your bag
Speaker 1: is that carousel for? They really don't have that they
Speaker 1: you say, don't Okay, thank you. Now, I'm not going
Speaker 1: thank you to thank you, all right, We'll settle on
Speaker 1: a poll question, Play of the day, stat of the day,
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson in about an hour, Coach k in the
Speaker 1: final hour this show and the Titans and the Packers
Speaker 1: Thursday Night Affair. We'll take a break here, we'll come

Speaker 1: a very freaky girl. You're not gonna take her home
Speaker 1: to mother? Oh Kinkie, Yeah, it's a different girl. Buffalo
Speaker 1: native Rick James. We're talking about Buffalo getting all the
Speaker 1: snow probably three feet maybe four feet. Jim Ken Tory
Speaker 1: from the Weather Channel is heading up to Buffalo, so
Speaker 1: you know, they're expecting a lot of snow there, and
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if Buffalo, if you're Buffalo, the players, the team,
Speaker 1: you want to play this game there, but you also
Speaker 1: have to figure out and factor in, you know, getting
Speaker 1: to the game, the safety of the people getting to
Speaker 1: the game, clearing the lots, being able you know, once
Speaker 1: they play the game there won't be snow It won't
Speaker 1: be snowing during the game, and you just have to
Speaker 1: clear it out. The question is ensuring that your fans
Speaker 1: can get there and they can't move it to Monday,
Speaker 1: because then the Bills turn around and play on Thursday
Speaker 1: night or Thursday Thanksgiving. Yes point, Yeah, you're right. Checking
Speaker 1: the weather. It's supposed to be tonight, all day Friday,
Speaker 1: all day Saturday. Sunday is supposed to be high of
Speaker 1: twenty eight, but unlikely to have snow. Yes time. And
Speaker 1: what about the Browns travel plans? It could be relocated.
Speaker 1: It could be Buffalo. When do they leave? How do
Speaker 1: you avoid the storm? You get there only to find
Speaker 1: out you're not playing the game or they're not playing
Speaker 1: it in that city. I don't know. And the Lions
Speaker 1: aren't at home this weekend. It probably should check that
Speaker 1: because I wonder if you could relocate that the Browns
Speaker 1: good drive to Detroit. Um, yeah, Poe, Lions are at
Speaker 1: the Giants this weekend, Okay, and you'd be able to
Speaker 1: use Detroit to get that game in because you have
Speaker 1: to have that quick turnaround to be able to play
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving? All right? Age seven seven three D p
Speaker 1: Show email address DPA dan Patrick dot com. We're getting
Speaker 1: people who are goo goo dolls. Are they from Buffalo Seaton? Yeah, yep,
Speaker 1: Dizzy up the girl? That's her big one? Is that
Speaker 1: what it is? One of them? Anyway? Yeah? I just
Speaker 1: want you to know who I am if you can
Speaker 1: say that anything. Isn't that their song too? That's Iris
Speaker 1: that's a big song. Oh okay, that was the one? Uh? Well,
Speaker 1: was that a Nicholas Cage movie where he's like an
Speaker 1: angel or something like that? Hym and Meg Ryan when
Speaker 1: he was like when he was still like a serious actor.
Speaker 1: No offense, Nicholas came, no offense? How could that be offense?
Speaker 1: I want I want My City of Angels rom com.
Speaker 1: That's it? Uh, it's a Nick Cage and Meg Ryan Ryan?
Speaker 1: They are somehow angels. I thought that was John tro Volta.
Speaker 1: Wasn't he in a? That was Michael? Oh Michael, which
Speaker 1: was brutal. That was my first date with my now wife.
Speaker 1: I can't even believe we got through that. That was
Speaker 1: just awful. Do you go to a movie on a
Speaker 1: first date because you don't talk you It was like
Speaker 1: a group first date. It was me and it was
Speaker 1: her and then like some other friends and couples and stuff.
Speaker 1: So yeah, but it is kind of weird to have
Speaker 1: a first date where you just kind of sitting there
Speaker 1: quiet eating popcorn. Yeah, because you don't have any conversation. Marvin,
Speaker 1: you know all about being in love. So I would wonder,
Speaker 1: you know, the ideal first date would be not the movies. Okay,
Speaker 1: maybe go somewhere to I met my wife in the
Speaker 1: student union. Okay, at the University of Connecticut. Okay, Marvin
Speaker 1: was thirty one. He just was in the union. It
Speaker 1: wasn't even at UKON anymore. Aren't you too old to
Speaker 1: be going here? You're like, oh, you're a crag. Did
Speaker 1: you ever hear from those girls that showed up that
Speaker 1: night at Big Dean's in Santa Monica? I have not fortunate.
Speaker 1: I wondered if they would ever reach out to you
Speaker 1: a social media wise. Oh oh, you should be on
Speaker 1: my space. We're going to get some kind of socky business.
Speaker 1: That's kind of where we left it. I hope they're successful.
Speaker 1: Oh my n your shirt, why are you on her shirt?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that girl detested you. That's a little harsh.
Speaker 1: It's not like I handcuffed them to the table. They
Speaker 1: had plenty of ample opportunity to walk away. They seem engaged,
Speaker 1: but they did. I think one of them, the older sister,
Speaker 1: thought I was like looking to bring her back to
Speaker 1: the hotel or something. Well, some of the women were
Speaker 1: fans of the show, and then her sister was somewhere
Speaker 1: dragged along with the show. Yeah, that that poor girl had.
Speaker 1: She did not want to be there. But then, don't
Speaker 1: take a shot at like our Korea, Like, how do
Speaker 1: you talk sports for three hours? David? What's up at
Speaker 1: three minutes? The Lakers won, the Clippers lost, move on.
Speaker 1: He'd be the other way around. Clippers won, Lakers lost
Speaker 1: move on. So old, this is not this is what
Speaker 1: she was saying. I was watching the whole thing. This
Speaker 1: is a real thing that happened. She's looking at us.
Speaker 1: Why does she have your face on? You have a
Speaker 1: ring on your finger. That's not cool. If your wife
Speaker 1: know you did that? You watch we're just talking. Uh
Speaker 1: James in Virginia, Hi James, what's going on today? Oh?
Speaker 1: Thank you for taking my call? Brother? Happy Thursday, DP,
Speaker 1: Dan that man, salute the commanders. Man I gotta bet
Speaker 1: for the week man, and man, I don't call no
Speaker 1: other shows between nine and twelve o'clock hour. Man, maybe
Speaker 1: I can get my own back phone, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? On tomorrow? Real serious, miss man, Uh, there
Speaker 1: is no other show that's given me the platform, m
Speaker 1: the notoriety, love and respect as the DP as the
Speaker 1: Dan and the Dan Patchings show man, Bro. Much love
Speaker 1: and much respect to you, sir, but my better the
Speaker 1: week man, you know, in honor of the day Patchers.
Speaker 1: Then was I on cash since I hit last week.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Packers tonight on the money
Speaker 1: line and the sneaky play the Minnesota Viking plus the points. Man,
Speaker 1: y'all have a great day, man, I have a wonderful weekend.
Speaker 1: If I won't talk to you, Man, Happy Thanksgiving guys,
Speaker 1: Thank you James. Somehow I think we will talk to you.
Speaker 1: That's James and Virginia all right. Uh so we have
Speaker 1: a poll question. Yeah, we went with whose career would
Speaker 1: you rather have? Jimmy Johnson or coach k I have
Speaker 1: to factor in college and prot with Jimmy. You know,
Speaker 1: his lifestyle is pretty good too. He gets to talk
Speaker 1: football on Fox and then sit on his boat and
Speaker 1: go fishing all the time. All of these coaches call him,
Speaker 1: all of them at some point, the even Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1: Belichick will go down there and go fishing with him,
Speaker 1: He'll spend a week with him and Jimmy and maybe
Speaker 1: he'll talk about this. But these coaches go there because
Speaker 1: they know that he's unbiased. They can ask a question
Speaker 1: and know that he's going to give them an answer.
Speaker 1: And I think that's why they seek him out, because
Speaker 1: he's done it at a very high level in college
Speaker 1: and certainly a high level in the NFL. That Jimmy
Speaker 1: he'll join us. Coming up a little bit later on
Speaker 1: Charles Barkley got yelled at did you see where John
Speaker 1: morand was not too kind to Charles said, John Moran
Speaker 1: has got to make you know his teammates better, which
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what that means. He can score,
Speaker 1: and as Charles says, you know, you get to a
Speaker 1: certain level and you can score. You can score every
Speaker 1: time down the floor, or you can get a good
Speaker 1: look every time down the floor. But he said that
Speaker 1: he thinks for Jaw to take that next step, he
Speaker 1: needs to get his teammates more involved or make them better.
Speaker 1: Does that mean he needs to have seven assists instead
Speaker 1: of four if like three more assists, I'm not quite
Speaker 1: sure I understand what Charles means by that. John Morant
Speaker 1: was not too pleased to Basically, he had two words
Speaker 1: to say, Charles really yeah, yeah, like Nat, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to listen to this. Charles also had this to
Speaker 1: say about the Brooklyn Nets with Kevin Durant. It's so
Speaker 1: amazing to me about basketball. You know, this team's been
Speaker 1: together for four years, and when when they went there
Speaker 1: four years ago, real like they're gonna win a couple
Speaker 1: of championships. They mean, they're gonna be in They did
Speaker 1: him close this almost over. I mean it's I mean
Speaker 1: because obviously at the end of this year, there's gonna
Speaker 1: be some wholesale changes. But man, when you got a
Speaker 1: good team, you have to take advantage of it. You
Speaker 1: cannot be screwing around. This is a waste of four
Speaker 1: years for these guys. Okay, well, Durant wasn't healthy for
Speaker 1: one of those years. You had the pandemic, you had
Speaker 1: vaccination with Kyrie Irving, injuries, bad signings, Steve Nash, and
Speaker 1: then you had the interview on bleacher Report, and you
Speaker 1: had Kevin Durant talking about a variety of things. In
Speaker 1: an interview on Bleacher Report, who did the interviews this
Speaker 1: Chris Hanes our good buddy, and Durant said, at one point,
Speaker 1: look at our starting lineup, Edmund Sumner, Royce, O'Neil, Joe Harris,
Speaker 1: Nick Claxton and me. It's not disrespect. But what are
Speaker 1: you expecting from that group? Man? That's not disrespect? Oh okay,
Speaker 1: you expect us to win because I'm out here, So
Speaker 1: if you're watching from that lens, you're expecting us to
Speaker 1: play well because number seven is out there. How about
Speaker 1: when you had everybody a couple of weeks ago, were
Speaker 1: you winning? And the answer is no. He also said
Speaker 1: that everybody says that I'm not a leader. I couldn't
Speaker 1: make Kyrie get vaccinated. You know my problem is is
Speaker 1: and I don't think Durant's a leader, and he might
Speaker 1: not understand what it means to be a leader. But
Speaker 1: when you decide that this is a team you want
Speaker 1: to build, you and Kyrie. They wanted DeAndre Jordan, they
Speaker 1: went out and got DeAndre Jordan. They wanted Steve Nash,
Speaker 1: they hired Steve Nash and then what happened? Nothing? And
Speaker 1: you wanted Ben Simmons James Harden didn't want to be there.
Speaker 1: You got Ben Simmons, by the way, he didn't even
Speaker 1: mention Ben Simmons, and the Hey, look at what I got.
Speaker 1: You expect me to win out here. This is a
Speaker 1: team you wanted and the reason why I look at
Speaker 1: this and say, you know, a leader would make this
Speaker 1: work the best thing you can. You'll make this work. Hey,
Speaker 1: I came here, this is what I wanted. I gotta
Speaker 1: make this work, not you know what's getting a little
Speaker 1: tough here. I'd like to get out. You know, I
Speaker 1: don't want to play with Russell Westbrook anymore. And we
Speaker 1: blew a three one lead, and I want to get out.
Speaker 1: I know players leave all the time, they go join
Speaker 1: other teams. Lebron has famously done that. But with KD,
Speaker 1: I just never feel like it's ever his fault. It's
Speaker 1: always somebody else's fault. And you know who Kyrie is.
Speaker 1: It's not like he woke up one day ago. Damn,
Speaker 1: this guy is different. This guy's strange. That's partially on
Speaker 1: Katie as well. And who knows, Kyrie might be back
Speaker 1: maybe this weekend from his extended suspension there, but you know,
Speaker 1: Katie talked about a lot of different things here. He's
Speaker 1: a wonderful player, but you got to take ownership here.
Speaker 1: And that's the only thing that I He finally got
Speaker 1: around to saying why he wanted out, because I said,
Speaker 1: can somebody just raise their hand and say, why did
Speaker 1: you want to be traded? I never heard anything. And
Speaker 1: then he talked about how he kind of looked around
Speaker 1: and he goes, you know, I don't like what's going
Speaker 1: on the vibe here, the people players, And I thought,
Speaker 1: wait a minute, It's like an artist who paints something
Speaker 1: and goes, oh, that's trash. I'm gonna blame somebody else
Speaker 1: for that. I'm gonna blame the person who gave me
Speaker 1: the paint. How could you make me paint something like that?
Speaker 1: Katie's just take ownership, all right, take ownership? And he
Speaker 1: hasn't and he probably won't. Yeah, po, Yeah, the Kyrie
Speaker 1: Irving story is quiet down. But let's say it comes
Speaker 1: back Sunday and plays or whatever. If you're the Nets,
Speaker 1: would you not make him available to the media for
Speaker 1: the next And I'm being deserious, Well, I don't know
Speaker 1: if they can well keep him from talking to the media,
Speaker 1: I would strongly advise it because people are gonna be
Speaker 1: the media members in New York and they're gonna do
Speaker 1: everything they can to get them. Oh sure, yeah. I
Speaker 1: want to hear him, like, I can't wait for Kyrie
Speaker 1: to get behind a microphone. Yeah. I'm gonna ask Coach
Speaker 1: k because he had Kyrie for a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: in Duke. I want to ask him if he's been
Speaker 1: in touch with him. Yeah, yeah, Seaton, the biggest problem
Speaker 1: is that Katie is wasting prime years floundering in Brooklyn
Speaker 1: when he should be collecting rings. But he's just he's
Speaker 1: wasting some of the best years of his career. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but he wanted this in Brooklyn. Yeah, I understand that,
Speaker 1: I think, But I just think I think people are
Speaker 1: allowed to be wrong. Like he could have been like, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's go there and build something and then be like,
Speaker 1: oh crap, this I was wrong about that. But he
Speaker 1: doesn't even say that. He'd like blaming the media Steve Nash.
Speaker 1: He said something like, um, you know we didn't have,
Speaker 1: you know, really good practices. Well you didn't have a
Speaker 1: full lineup there to have really good practices. Whose fault
Speaker 1: is that is? Uh? You know, he might be he's
Speaker 1: not wrong about what he said about that starting lineup.
Speaker 1: He's just being too right about it. He's just that
Speaker 1: you're you're not supposed to say that kind of thing publicly.
Speaker 1: But he's not wrong about that. That lineup sucks and
Speaker 1: you do expect, well, you guys should be doing better
Speaker 1: because Kevin Durant is out there. He's not wrong about
Speaker 1: those but does a lead. Okay, so I give him
Speaker 1: credit because he was overly honest. No, but we do
Speaker 1: like to as a group, not just us, but the
Speaker 1: media does like to be like, oh, what is with
Speaker 1: these bs answers? You can't honestly think that's a good
Speaker 1: starting lineup, you know what I mean? Like, there's there
Speaker 1: are people who, no matter which way they go, are
Speaker 1: gonna be doing it the wrong way, and he's very
Speaker 1: much one of them. Whether that's his own fault or not.
Speaker 1: He certainly likes to put his own foot in his mouth,
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that, and he likes to make
Speaker 1: himself not likable by being too honest. I would like
Speaker 1: for him to be honest about his situation and the
Speaker 1: situation he created, then you can be honest about the
Speaker 1: other He's not honest about some things. He's honest about
Speaker 1: other things. How about how about you, Katie, be honest
Speaker 1: about you. Then if you want to say, look, this
Speaker 1: is the lineup I have. We're not gonna win, and
Speaker 1: you expect me to win. If we don't win, then
Speaker 1: it's on me. Okay, But he also has to say,
Speaker 1: I put myself in this situation. I wanted Steve. It
Speaker 1: was the wrong choice there. I wanted Kyrie. It was
Speaker 1: the wrong choice. Now, if you say that, you can
Speaker 1: say the other stuff as far as I'm concerned, But
Speaker 1: he doesn't. He's not honest about his stuff. He's honest
Speaker 1: about this is what I gotta deal with. I gotta
Speaker 1: deal with that. I couldn't get Kyrie vaccinated. Did you try?
Speaker 1: What kind of conversation did you have with him? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's not that's not on him. He's not. I mean,
Speaker 1: I do agree with them to that respect. That Like,
Speaker 1: Kyrie's a grown ass man. He's gonna do whatever he wants,
Speaker 1: and no matter what Kevin Durant says to him, that's
Speaker 1: he's not going to change that. No, but he knows
Speaker 1: this guy. You're getting into business with somebody and then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you go, man, he's crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I don't know that you can, like, uh foresee
Speaker 1: a global pandemic and then a vaccine this year when
Speaker 1: you originally signed those contracts. Well, those aren't the only
Speaker 1: things that he's that are controversial about him. That nobody
Speaker 1: saw a pandemic obviously, how about the other stuff that
Speaker 1: he says that he's got him He got suspended for
Speaker 1: saying something that had nothing to do with the pandemic.
Speaker 1: So you're you know, the Earth's flat. I mean, not
Speaker 1: that you get suspended for that, but you know, Kyrie,
Speaker 1: he should have known that you're at least getting into
Speaker 1: business with somebody who's a little bit different here. And
Speaker 1: is he gonna want to play? I don't know if
Speaker 1: he wants to play Ben Simmons, does he want to play?
Speaker 1: I have no idea. It's unfortunate that will look back
Speaker 1: on KD his career and probably wonder what could have
Speaker 1: been or what should have been. And that's kind of
Speaker 1: these wasted four years that I was talking about in Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: You just wasted. You know that that could be a
Speaker 1: ring or two. And if he had stayed at Golden State,
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, you move up the ladder
Speaker 1: where you go, Okay, how many how many titles do
Speaker 1: you have? Now he's still gonna get knocked because he
Speaker 1: joined Steph's team, But you know what, when Kadi went there,
Speaker 1: Katie was the best player on the team. Yeah, Mark
Speaker 1: with all three of his stops, all of those are
Speaker 1: what could have been scenarios. Oklahoma City him, westbrook Harden,
Speaker 1: Golden State, they got two rings. He could have stayed
Speaker 1: there and lord knows how what they would have done.
Speaker 1: And now Brooklyn with these four years. So you're right,
Speaker 1: and he's gonna go down maybe the greatest score ever,
Speaker 1: but it's gonna always be a what could have been
Speaker 1: at every single stop. But he won't get to Lebron's
Speaker 1: total point total, Willie. I don't know, has anybody run
Speaker 1: the numbers on KD what he'd have to do for
Speaker 1: the next eight or nine years. You know, Lebron never
Speaker 1: had that type of injury that knocked him out like
Speaker 1: Katie had with the Achilles Yampol. Durant is at just
Speaker 1: under twenty six thousand points. Lebron's at thirty seven thousand.
Speaker 1: Durant is thirty four years old. He would need four
Speaker 1: really nice seasons, I mean really nice seasons to be
Speaker 1: within striking distance. He's averaging thirty this year because he
Speaker 1: has to. It's interesting that if you said who's the
Speaker 1: better basketball player, people would say Kevin Durant over Steph Curry. Probably,
Speaker 1: I think people would say that better at basketball, yes,
Speaker 1: but if you said whose career would you want, you'd
Speaker 1: probably take Steph Curry's second. Yeah, and a second though,
Speaker 1: and that's a quick answer, Oh yeah. Absolute. Durant's got
Speaker 1: two titles with Curry. Curry has four titles, two of
Speaker 1: them without Durant. But you look at kids want to
Speaker 1: be Steph. He changed the game. He's the greatest shooter
Speaker 1: of all time. You know, there's there aren't many negatives
Speaker 1: that we have with Steph Curry, with with KD. You know,
Speaker 1: we nitpick with him. But you did leave Oklahoma City,
Speaker 1: you did leave Golden State. Now you're stuck with whatever
Speaker 1: you're stuck with in Brooklyn, and I don't know if
Speaker 1: it changes anytime soon, because now you know, the report
Speaker 1: yesterday was, hey, they're kind of getting tired of this. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know Ben Simmons situation that didn't take long. I
Speaker 1: think you're already tired of the Ben Simmons situation. I
Speaker 1: don't know if somebody went, you know, now, we're tired
Speaker 1: of the Ben Simmons. That's just his career, that's his
Speaker 1: whole careers. It's called the Ben Simmons situation. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: mar that's like the really hot girl and you wonder
Speaker 1: why she's single and the ex boyfriends. Like I tried
Speaker 1: to tell you, m look, Hallie Bear has been divorced twice. Well,
Speaker 1: I don't think we should speak. I mean, she may
Speaker 1: have flaws, don't we all? Marv? Oh obviously, mister perfect. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you guys said, it's not me. Hey, you can criticize
Speaker 1: Kyrie and Kad, but not halle Berry. Yeah, yeah, it
Speaker 1: could be good time. Yes, I'll tell you one thing
Speaker 1: with Ben Simmons, it's getting way worse. If you look
Speaker 1: at him when he was twenty three years old, he
Speaker 1: started most of the games. This season, he averaged sixteen points,
Speaker 1: eight rebounds, eight assists, two steals, and a block. They
Speaker 1: would kill for that now, They would absolutely sign up
Speaker 1: for that. Without doing much shooting. He was just kind
Speaker 1: of a nice post player, decent on the break. It's
Speaker 1: not even close to where he was three years ago.
Speaker 1: He's ever when he plays he's having five points a game,
Speaker 1: five rebounds of five assists. That's less than half what
Speaker 1: he used to do. But also, you know when you
Speaker 1: when you go to a team and they're not very good.
Speaker 1: We don't really like Paolo Bancaro like well watching me
Speaker 1: plays for Orlando, but we don't go, man, your team's
Speaker 1: not very good. We sort of let you have those
Speaker 1: couple of years where you're on scholarship. And we did
Speaker 1: that with Ben. You're like, oh, okay, you're good, but
Speaker 1: you know not. He wasn't playing in any meaningful games,
Speaker 1: and it's the one game and a playoff against the
Speaker 1: Hawks that we single out that he did not want
Speaker 1: to take a shot. All right, let me take a break.

Speaker 1: Update the poll results, Seaton. Whose career would you want? Dan,
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson or Coach k Right now? Fifty two percent
Speaker 1: of the vote to coach k All Right Randall in
Speaker 1: Newport Beach, Good morning, Randall? What's on your mind? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Good morning Dan and Patrick? How are you today? Great? Great? Great?
Speaker 1: This is the Jimmy Jimmerson of Pro Pickleball at your services.
Speaker 1: There is a pro pickleball tournament this weekend in Newport
Speaker 1: Beach and I'm on here covering it and just wanted
Speaker 1: to let you guys know that this was going on.
Speaker 1: This is the tournament that is the direct competitor to
Speaker 1: the Lebron and Tom Brady Tournament. There's two tours. Why
Speaker 1: will pickleball be around in five years? Randall? Pickleball may
Speaker 1: be the greatest sport ever invented. The reason why I'll
Speaker 1: be around in five years is twofold one the recreational
Speaker 1: side and then two the pro side is developing at
Speaker 1: a lightning pace. The recreational side if there's a low
Speaker 1: barrier to entry and families can play it together, that
Speaker 1: your grandparents can play it with the grandkids, the parents
Speaker 1: with the kids. It's very social, a little bit different
Speaker 1: dynamic than tennis. And the part that I loved about
Speaker 1: it was I come from basketball like somebody else that
Speaker 1: I'm talking to. And the great part about basketball is
Speaker 1: I could go anywhere and get a pickup game right,
Speaker 1: no matter if I knew anybody or not. If I
Speaker 1: try to do that with tennis, I try to show
Speaker 1: up to a tennis court and try to get a
Speaker 1: game with somebody that I didn't know, they really strange.
Speaker 1: So that's the reason that it will be around in
Speaker 1: five hour. Right? Thank you Randall? Are Jimmy Jimmerson of pickleball? Yeample,
Speaker 1: I think what concerns me as before I would invest
Speaker 1: my capital and pickleball would be that it seems like
Speaker 1: it's too accessible and too many people can play it.
Speaker 1: If you're going to tune on TV, I want to
Speaker 1: watch something I can't do on a daily basis, not
Speaker 1: something I can. I want to watch high end athletes
Speaker 1: playing a sport like shuffleboard. I wouldn't tune into. But
Speaker 1: then you could say, there is uh cornhole is on TV.
Speaker 1: Anybody else played pickleball in here? I'm the only one
Speaker 1: and I only played one game and that was on vacation.
Speaker 1: It was my wife and I against two women dominated. Yes,
Speaker 1: we did well. We were getting we were getting roughed up,
Speaker 1: and they were taking advantage of my wife. And I thought,
Speaker 1: you know what competitive Danny, the jerk in the room,
Speaker 1: the jerk in the room is going to start, you know,
Speaker 1: whiling here. Did you flip the switch? Yes? So I did,
Speaker 1: because my wife goes, you know, just have fun. I go, oh, honey, no,
Speaker 1: she knew, yeah, she knew, no, but she she does
Speaker 1: tell me that. She'll be like, hey, like she'll tell
Speaker 1: me just have fun. Yeah, she's the one that goes.
Speaker 1: Not everybody gets your sense of humor. You know, when
Speaker 1: when we're at a party and I say something and
Speaker 1: she'd be like, not everybody gets your sense. I go, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know, good. But I had to flip the switch
Speaker 1: on these two women from Greenwich, Connecticut. Marge. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know what their names were. I know that they
Speaker 1: didn't meet us at the net when we were done.
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, they stormed away. Is that because they
Speaker 1: lost or because someone was not gracious and I was great?
Speaker 1: I mean I I walked to the net after because
Speaker 1: I won. I'm out the door. I'd be flipping somebody
Speaker 1: off there, Yes, Todd. Can you slam it at someone
Speaker 1: like in tennis? Or is that frowned upon them as
Speaker 1: opposed to you know, pickleball? Is there unwritten rules, but
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be a friendly family game. Can you
Speaker 1: hit it hard at somebody the ball? Because I haven't played.
Speaker 1: Whether there's a pro league, I don't know. If you
Speaker 1: play like friendly, it's you know, But if you have
Speaker 1: an opportunity like slam it right at somebody, you know
Speaker 1: that I want to win. Okay, yeah, I'd do it
Speaker 1: if my mom was on the other side, got arrested her,
Speaker 1: so I would and she knows it. Yes, Greenwich, Connecticut,
Speaker 1: seems like a hotbed of pickup all. I mean, that's
Speaker 1: that's what we were outside of Greenwich Connect round zero. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I wasn't there, Rancho, not quite Greenwich, Rancho No. Uh
Speaker 1: Tom in North Carolina, Hi Tom, Hey Tom, Good morning
Speaker 1: Dan to Uh Yeah, I love the show. Love you guys. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, as far as you're you're you always have
Speaker 1: the hard hitting questions, insightful questions. With that being said, Dan,
Speaker 1: I'd like to ask the questions that America wants to
Speaker 1: know who has the best five o'clock shadows, Hod fritz
Speaker 1: or Max Kellerman. Oh, Fritzie would dominate Max Kellerman with
Speaker 1: a five o'clock shadow, Like Fritzie will have that. And
Speaker 1: it's a day and a half to get that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just thought of gardens like four days ago, Yeah,
Speaker 1: four hours ago. It's really coming in nice. It's really
Speaker 1: nice and itchy and gray and black, and there's there's
Speaker 1: some holes to be filled, which I don't think you
Speaker 1: can do anything about that. Yeah, yeah, it's kind of
Speaker 1: like that. George Michael Live o'clock shadow, Come on, George Michael,
