1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Former Patriot wide receiver Danny Amendola was on

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 1: First Things First on Fox Sports one yesterday morning, and

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,760
Speaker 1: he was asked about the Patriot Way, and the former

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: wide receiver had this to say, when you see Patriot

6
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: Way in the dictionary, it's gonna have Tom Brady's name

7
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: next to it. None of those coaches through any passes.

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: None of those coaches caught any passes, None of those

9
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,639
Speaker 1: coaches made any tackles. They got guys in the right

10
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 1: position because they watched a lot of film and they

11
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: spend all their time at the facility. But Tom Brady

12
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: is the Patriot Way, and that's and that's the reason

13
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: why Tom Brady's in the Super Bowl right now and

14
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: the Patriots aren't. Alrighty, sounds like a smooth segue to

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: bring in Matt Light spend a decade there with the Patriots,

16
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 1: won three Super Bowls there, founder of the Light Foundation,

17
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: and Matt kind enough to join us. What did you

18
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: make of Amendola's comments there, Matt, I mean it kind

19
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: of sounded a little bit like an angry l right,

20
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: one of those South Pole elves. You know, maybe he

21
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: was trying to make a point there about something and

22
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: seems to be working. You know, look, when I was there,

23
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: you know, my eleven seasons with Bill, you know, it

24
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: was a roller coaster of emotions. There were days where

25
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: you didn't want to hear it from Bill. You didn't

26
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: want to hear the early morning all right, Look, you

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: guys are terrible. We're never gonna win a game if

28
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 1: you guys keep playing like this. This is the worst

29
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: football I've ever seen. Here. Let's watch light seven hundred

30
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: times screwing up a block, you know, like it gets old,

31
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: and by the way, it can get really personal, especially

32
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: when you mix in contract talk, right and the fact

33
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: that guys do give up, you know, the ability to

34
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: potentially go make more money elsewhere. So is it personal

35
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: with him at this point right now? Sure seems like it,

36
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: But I think there's some truth in what he says though.

37
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: You know, to me, if somebody asked me who embodies

38
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: and who is the face of the Patriot way kind

39
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: of hard to argue the point that it's Tom Brady.

40
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: Take me back to the decision when Belichick decided to

41
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 1: stay with Brady, even when Drew Bledsoe came back from

42
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: that injury. So two thousand and one, you've just paid Drew.

43
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: He's one of the highest paid players in the game,

44
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,839
Speaker 1: and you've got a guy you're not quite sure how

45
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: good he is, and Brady's won a few games and

46
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: then he decides to stay with him as a teammate

47
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: and an all, you know, somebody blocking for these quarterbacks.

48
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,119
Speaker 1: What did you think of that move at the time, Yeah,

49
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 1: I mean it was it was like, Okay, we had

50
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: the Moe Lewis hit heard around the world. You know,

51
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: we have thee hundred million dollar man, you know, largest

52
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: contract I think at the time in NFL history, and

53
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 1: we had the backup to the backup, right. I mean,

54
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: Tommy wasn't number two in camp, he was number three.

55
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: I think it was Michael Bishop. And I don't know,

56
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: I've been hit a lot, but you know, so you know, yeah,

57
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was an interesting point in time.

58
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: I can remember though, in season We're on the road

59
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: playing in Washington and we almost came back in the

60
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: fourth quarter to win a road game that at the time,

61
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: it was still kind of unknown, can he do it?

62
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: Can he not do it? You know, wins Drew gonna

63
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: be back. But even though we didn't win that game

64
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: on the road, everybody felt, you know, that Tommy had

65
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: what it was gonna take after that game, and then

66
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: you fast forward to the AFC Championship game and he

67
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: leaves with an injury. Comes you know, Drew Bledsoe comes

68
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: back in, he's throwing darts down the sideline, and then

69
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: we're going to the Super Bowl with no week in between.

70
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it was chaos. But you know, look as

71
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: weird as that situation was, it was really clear that

72
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: Tom Brady was the leader. But be honest, after the

73
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: AFC title game, Bledshow comes in throwing darts. You guys win,

74
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: You're going to Super Bowl. If I would ask you,

75
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: then who do you want to start that Super Bowl?

76
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: Who would you have picked? You know, honestly, you kind

77
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: of had to go. I mean I felt terrible for

78
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: the situation for Drew Bledsoe. I mean, here, we are

79
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: going to a Super Bowl. This guy's put in so

80
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: much work in the National Football League and comes back

81
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: in for that, you know, AFC Championship game and picks

82
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 1: up right where he left off. But even with that said,

83
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: as much as I love Drew Bledsoe, you know, I

84
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: really felt like Tommy earned the right to have that

85
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: opportunity at that point. But he didn't throw any touchdowns

86
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: in the playoffs leading up to the Super Bowl. He

87
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: didn't throw a touchdown pass. It's a stat that I

88
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: didn't know. I mean, you wouldn't know that if you

89
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: were in our locker room, right, And by the way,

90
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: you're talking to an offensive lineman. I mean, you know,

91
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: just point me in the right direction, you know, wind

92
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: me up and let me go. But how much credit

93
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 1: you give Belichick. Belichick doesn't get credit for making this move, right,

94
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: I mean, as much as we can say, well, who's

95
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: more responsible for the Patriot success? Belichick? Belichick made the

96
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: ultimate decision to start Tom Brady. He overdrew bledshow. I mean,

97
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: he's got to get credit for that. Yeah. And what

98
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: a huge point too. I mean, you look at the

99
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: previous season or two, right, and you know the lack

100
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: of kind of people buying into the Patriot way and

101
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 1: what it meant and the idea that you know, we're

102
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: going to sacrifice a lot more than just what some

103
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: other teams were doing and how they prepared. Because when

104
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: you come to New England, you give up quite a

105
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: bit you know, especially kind of you know who you are.

106
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: In some ways everything gets muted for the benefit of

107
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: the overall organization. But yeah, I mean, look, Bills made

108
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: some unbelievably tough calls that you know, seemed kind of

109
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: uncharacteristic for a head coach to make. I mean, I

110
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: think about you know, that season in two thousand and two,

111
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: I think it was it was the following year after

112
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: we won the Super Bowl, Lawyer Malloy gets shipped down

113
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: to you know, Buffalo below the desert, right, and you know,

114
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: he was the best one of our one of our leaders,

115
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: I mean clearly one of our leaders, and one of

116
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 1: the guys that everybody looked to. I mean, that blew

117
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: my mind. So you know, you never knew what to expect.

118
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, what

119
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: we did know is that Bill talked a lot about

120
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: the decisions he makes are what's in the best interests

121
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: of the team. And I know that that's something the

122
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,239
Speaker 1: coaches say, but I truly believe that that's what Bill

123
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: and his entire staff do. Even though it seems strange

124
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 1: at times. How much of a role did Belichick have

125
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: in your tenure there with the Patriots with the offense.

126
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's it's an interesting question because you know,

127
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: we had really strong people that were coaching the offensive

128
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: side of the ball, right, Like I look back and

129
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: you know Charlie Weiss, you know, you know he was

130
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: going to tell coach what he wanted to do and

131
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: why he thought that was the way to go. And

132
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: there's always struggles on a coaching staff, right the offensive

133
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: line coach is pushing for more past plays, the quarterback,

134
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: especially Tom Brady, and the quarterback coaches are all looking

135
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: for different ways to you know, get fancy and cute

136
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: with the ball. And so there's this struggle on on

137
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: play calls and how we open and who's really the

138
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator on some staffs. But Bill, you know, to

139
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: answer your question, Bill Belichick had a lot to do

140
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: with our offense. You know, everybody talks about him as

141
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: a defensive coach, but you know Bill really understands, you know,

142
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: not just the scheme, but but how the other side

143
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: is going to look at, you know, defending against what

144
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 1: you do best, right, And Bill's a big proponent of, hey,

145
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: here's the three things that we have to do that

146
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: that's what we did before every matchup. Here's what we

147
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: have to do offensively, here's what we have to do

148
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball, and here's what

149
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: we have to do on special teams. And there'd be

150
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: three points to each week as we prepared. So you know,

151
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: he knew as much on the offensive side as he

152
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: certainly did on the defensive side. Who do you think

153
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: is most responsible for what happened in those two decades

154
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: in New England? I mean, look, I think if anybody

155
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: looks at this season and tries to make a comparison

156
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: at this point in time, how how about this? How

157
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: about this? You can have Belichick as your coach or

158
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: Brady as your quarterback. This is your rookie year. Yeah,

159
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: I mean you gotta go with Bill Belichick for a

160
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: lot of reasons. Right, Um, can can he win without

161
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: Tom Brady? Yeah? I think he can. I mean we

162
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: did in two thousand and eight. Right. If you want

163
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: a case study to look at, you know we had

164
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: a guy in Matt Castle, you know who filled in

165
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: did a great job, same coach, same Bill Belichick. Right,

166
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: So I don't look at what happened this season and

167
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: try to compare it in the realm of who's more important,

168
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 1: Tom Brady or Bill Belichick. Look, those are two of

169
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: the most dynamic people to play in the game, right,

170
00:08:54,080 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: But you think you could have won super bowls with Bledsoe, Yeah, yeah,

171
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,599
Speaker 1: I think we could have for sure. You know, I

172
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't put either one of those guys down, right. I mean,

173
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: but it is a system, right, New England is a

174
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: system kind of scheme. I mean, it always has been,

175
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: always will be with Bill Belichick as the head coach.

176
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 1: But Tom the system, though, he's a system unto himself,

177
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 1: isn't he He is now? He is now, and look

178
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: he has been for a long time. So you know,

179
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: look is there's no surprise that Tom Brady's in the

180
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: Super Bowl? Right? The fact that he went to Tampa

181
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: kind of shocked me. You know, there's a lot of

182
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: things that I found interesting. I didn't think that, you know,

183
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: I wasn't somebody that said, hey, just because Tom Brady's

184
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: in Tampa, they're going to go to the Super Bowl.

185
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: But it's not a surprise. Do you ever have a

186
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: drink with Belichick. I've been drinking around him. I saw him.

187
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: I remember when the transition happened and he went from

188
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: like only football and everything in football to then the

189
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick that we kind of know now today that

190
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: will maybe go down to the island and enjoy a

191
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 1: little bit more golf. So I've seen him relax and

192
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: cut loose. Do you have a Belichick story that I

193
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: haven't heard? I've got a vault. But you can't get

194
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 1: in trouble now, Matt, Oh, listen, you just looked over

195
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: your shoulder when I ask you that question, as if

196
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: as if there was somebody there going Matt, don't do that. Yeah,

197
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: like dad, My wife was worried that I was gonna

198
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: get fired or let go every week every week because

199
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: I was always up to something that was no good.

200
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 1: Give me a Belichick story, all right. So there was

201
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: a time, and I've told this before, but this is

202
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: a great one. There was a time We're at the

203
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl and we had one of my teammates that

204
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: was there as well, and he came as an alternate,

205
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: and I told him while he was hanging out with

206
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that were more tenured than he

207
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: that when you're at the Pro Bowl you don't pay

208
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: for drinks, and especially if your coaching staff is there.

209
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: I said, hey, look here's Bill room, and I made

210
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: it a point to get Bill's room number, and I said,

211
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: just filled out, put his room number on there, and

212
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 1: sign his name. So I thought it would be funny.

213
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: I didn't think he would actually do it, but hey,

214
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 1: we're just having fun a little conversation. Well about five

215
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 1: hours later, and after he'd been hanging out with all

216
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: the old timers who were already putting all their drinks

217
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: on his bill anyway, which he didn't know. Yeh, the

218
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: young bucks never figured that out until it's too late.

219
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: I see him walking from one side of the pool

220
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: area to the other to hand Bill the check cart.

221
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: It's in his hand, and I'm the only person in

222
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: the whole area that knew what was happening. So I

223
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: remember I grabbed. I grabbed one of my teammates. I'm like, bro,

224
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: you've got to see this. You have no idea what's

225
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: about to happen, but it's gonna get weird. And he

226
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 1: walks up. He's like, I appreciate you, Bill, I appreciate it.

227
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: And Bill has no idea what he's talking about. But

228
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: he did sign it, and he did pay for it.

229
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: Brady was a pretty good beer chuggar, right one of

230
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: the best. Yeah for sure. Yeah, Ross Tucker said that

231
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: he was. He was up there. Yeah you won't. You

232
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: won't see any evidence of that. I think that stopped

233
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 1: many years ago, about the time the whole TV twelve

234
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: method came out. Apparently water saved you from getting to

235
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: burn more than alcohol. So what if we were doing

236
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: shots of kale? Do you think that he would be

237
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 1: created chugging kale? Just stay away from strawberries and everything

238
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: else is okay. But he wasn't different or strange when

239
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,960
Speaker 1: you were there, No, I mean, look, he's always had

240
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: his method. I mean from the very beginning, a matter

241
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: of fact, before before he was ever the starter. When

242
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: I got to New England, the only person I knew

243
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: in the New England region was a guy named Dave Nugent,

244
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: who I went to Purdue with and was a roommate

245
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: and came in with the class the year before with

246
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. So you know, I got to see Tommy,

247
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, as the guy driving the yellow Jeep that

248
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 1: was given to him by the dealer. That wasn't the starter.

249
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: And but but even then, you know, the guy always

250
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: had a method to everything he did and was always

251
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: trying to do it at a very high level. But

252
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 1: what happens when he shows up with Giselle? Were you

253
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: Were you still there when Giselle makes her first appearance

254
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: or you find out Brady is dating Giselle? Yeah, yeah,

255
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: I was there when they were married. I mean it

256
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: was yeah, I mean there there were some other interesting

257
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: moments before that too, that that you know, we we

258
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: poked fun at. But yeah, yeah, I mean we we

259
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: saw the whole transformation and the clothes and like just

260
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: everything about him. He had a makeover. Right. Well, now

261
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: now you're going to force me to do this, Okay,

262
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: so imagine this for me, Dan, Okay, I'm an offensive lineman.

263
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: I roll out of bed at six am. We have

264
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: a team meeting at seven am every single day. If

265
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,199
Speaker 1: you're late, you're probably going to be fired. And we've

266
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: actually seen evidence of that in the form of running back, right,

267
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: So you're not going to be late. But when I

268
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: roll out of it, as an offensive lineman, fat, sweaty, sloppy,

269
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: I don't do anything other than just putting on whatever

270
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: was laying next to my bed. I walk into the facility,

271
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: I drop all that stuff, put on my workout stuff,

272
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: and I walk into the meeting, right, let me contrast

273
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: that with a Tom Brady. When Tom Brady walks in

274
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: and on this particular day, he comes in with the

275
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: skinny jeans that taper all the way to a very

276
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: tight point, with the designer boots that were made by

277
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: tom Ford, custom designed, you know, unbelievable leather, the whole

278
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: nine polish to the nth degree on the upper half

279
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: of him. He's wearing a cardigan I'm talking straight out

280
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: of like mister Rogers cardigan. And this cardigan has a

281
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: giant lapel, It's got wool knitted by some Serpa in

282
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: the Himalayas. It has hand carved buttons the size of

283
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: my hand that are really cool looking. And I'm kind

284
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: of angry that this is what I see walking in.

285
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: So I bust his chops all the time. And on

286
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: this particular day, I decided it was a good opportunity

287
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: for me to go to his while he was working

288
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: on becoming a better player and studying plays. And I

289
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: put on his so called Scherpa card again and I

290
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: went and I worked out in it. Now, the fun

291
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: part is is that the only thing I put on

292
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: was the card again, literally the only thing. So when

293
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: he was driving home to his beautiful place in Boston,

294
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: where I knew he wasn't going to be able to

295
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: get away from the ikeyness of me sending a picture

296
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: of working out in that cardigan. I took a lot

297
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: of joy in that. Did he keep it? I think

298
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: he'd probably burn it on the side of ninety three.

299
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: It's great to touch base with you again, Matt. Hope

300
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: you're doing well and the Light Foundation is well. You know,

301
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. We love the stories well. I

302
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: appreciate and listen. The best storyline of this Super Bowl

303
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: is Scherm fights for Freedom dot org. Anthony Sherman, fullback

304
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: for the Kansas City Chief. He's given away his truck.

305
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: Anybody can get an opportunity to take home that man's truck.

306
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: And he's one of the best guys on our team,

307
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,680

00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: the sideline acting as a a coach, I don't know,

343
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:26,720

Speaker 1: There you go, there you go. You've seen it, seen it? No,

345
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: I haven't seen my work. No, I see my work.

346
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: What do you think when you see your old game film,

347
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: when you when you're watching highlights and you come on, oh,

348
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: I mean it just you know what, it just kind

349
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 1: of brings back memories of being young and and being

350
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: able to do that kind of cool stuff on the

351
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 1: field and and living out my dream um, and and

352
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: really almost those kind of butterflies, you know, of of

353
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: actually playing the game and that that sort of citement

354
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: you get. Um, why are you actually going through it

355
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: in the middle of it? So it was pretty cool.

356
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 1: Can you teach your style of running? That's a good question,

357
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: I think, I think, I think to some. To some yes,

358
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: you can teach it. To others maybe not. But I

359
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: think what I think too, how many guys had your

360
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: ability to cut? I don't know how fast you were.

361
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 1: I just know you had that ability to cut absolutely, no,

362
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 1: I think, But I think to the right individuals, I

363
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: think you can teach it. But how many guys I mean,

364
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, dan um, I watched the

365
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: game as a kid, and I was imitating so many

366
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: guys like Joe Washington and Greg through It and Tony

367
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: Dorset and OJ and Marcus Allen and guys like that. Um,

368
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: so I can't. I can't sit up here like I

369
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 1: authored any any of it. Yeah, you know what your

370
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: style was. You had to run for your life behind

371
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: that Lions offensive line, Like that was your style? No, hey, look,

372
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,479
Speaker 1: I you know I think, um for me, absolutely with

373
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 1: my style, that's the way I had always run. I

374
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 1: had trust me as a kid, that's the way I ran. Um.

375
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: You know, even when I didn't have the Lions offensive line.

376
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 1: You know so, but that's just the way I ran.

377
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 1: Take me back to when you played your last game

378
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 1: and I got a call from your agent, Peter Shaffer,

379
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: and he said, hey, Barry's going to take a flight

380
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 1: to London, right right, right? Okay. Did you know prior

381
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 1: to the game that that was your last game and

382
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,360
Speaker 1: that you were going to take a flight to London

383
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: as you ended your NFL career? Well, no, at the

384
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: time I retired, I didn't know I was going to

385
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: take a flight to London, because the flight to London

386
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 1: happened in with July or something like that on the

387
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: Evil training camp. Um, and the last game would have

388
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: been that December, I guess of ninety eight, I would think,

389
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: and so, um and so, but I knew that season

390
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: that that was pretty much it. UM. I knew, uh,

391
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: you know, I just I just knew that, you know what,

392
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: I had played ten great years and had had a

393
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 1: great run. UM didn't see uh, didn't really see a

394
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: reason that you know, continue, um in the game. I

395
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 1: knew that that drive and you know that that kind

396
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: of thing, you that that that UM pilot light, you

397
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: know that that's always lit that drives you that UM.

398
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: You know that drives that that fire within. I just

399
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: knew that that was gone at at a year or

400
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,479
Speaker 1: ten and it was just time to move on. I mean,

401
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: it's something, it's something that I mean, I guess unless

402
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: you unless you've had that experience of where where you

403
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,679
Speaker 1: know you have to make a change in life like that,

404
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: maybe it doesn't sound very clear. But I just knew

405
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: that and understood it. Yes, it's time, it's time to

406
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: move on. Was there any part of you who didn't

407
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 1: want to break Walter Peyton's rushing Kurt Um? I don't know.

408
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a that's a tough question to answer

409
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: because being a lifelong fan of NFL and Walter Payton

410
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: and running backs, I understood what that meant. Um. But

411
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: I just knew that for me, you know, the game

412
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 1: had just run his course, and I you know, I

413
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: didn't get it in the time that I played. Um,

414
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: you know, I got close enough. And it's you know,

415
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: it's always honor to be mentioned with Walter um, you know,

416
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 1: so so you know, so yeah, that that's kind of

417
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: how I looked at it. But I also wonder, you know,

418
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: the Lions just said to Matthew Stafford, hey, we're gonna

419
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: let you, like you pick where you want to go,

420
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: or we're gonna try to help you go someplace. I

421
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: was wondering if you were playing now with the Lions

422
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: and they weren't winning and they had that, you know,

423
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: maybe they would look at the same way and go, hey,

424
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 1: you want to go to the Raiders, We're gonna send

425
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 1: you to the Raiders or your favorite team. I think

426
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 1: back then, do you think that's what the lines we're

427
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: doing with Matthew Stafford is basically saying, Hey, we're not

428
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: going anywhere. Here's our thank you to you. We're gonna

429
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: send you to the La Rams. Yeah. I mean they're

430
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: they're apparently, UM, seemed to be some some of that. Um.

431
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: I think it's a different it's a different league now. UM.

432
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 1: I think, uh, and you know, he's meant so much

433
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 1: to the franchise. Um, he's carried us for many many years,

434
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: and and UM, you know so so yeah, I mean,

435
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: you know, whatever that conversation was, the two sort of

436
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: came to an agreement that that was the best thing

437
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: for both parties. UM. You know, I don't I don't

438
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,160
Speaker 1: know exactly you know, the details of the conversation. Um,

439
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: but um, but what a blockbuster trade, man, I mean wow, Um,

440
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: you know and and uh and so hey, look hopefully

441
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 1: it works out well for both. Um. You know we're getting, uh,

442
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 1: we're getting a young man who's played a lot of

443
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: a lot of um and some very big games in

444
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 1: a short career. Um, you know, and and we'll see

445
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 1: what happens. And you're okay with the trade for if

446
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 1: you're being alone, I think, Dad, I think I think

447
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: we got a lot for it. Okay, I think we

448
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: got a lot. I think we got a lot for it.

452
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: To this point, I think we can say that, yeah,

00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 1: I was kind of involved, um in just the conversation

459
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: with with Chris Bellman and and uh so forth. Um, um,

460
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 1: you know, so I kind of I knew that he

461
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: was going to talk to coach Campbell and some others. Um,

462
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: he's kind of goofy Barry. Well, you know, I guess uh,

463
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: I guess uh. You know, he's a great coach, um,

464
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: a great rate coaching prospect. He's been around the game.

465
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: I you know, I kind of enjoyed the press conference.

466
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: You know, it was kind of entertaining, um, you know.

467
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: And so you gotta you gotta come in and entertain

468
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: the fans a little bit, right, you know, But you

469
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: would hope the team would entertain him, Barry. But if

470
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,719
Speaker 1: if the team doesn't do well, then Dan should be

471
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: entertaining in those press conferences. Well, I mean, you gotta

472
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: start off. You gotta start off some way. And I

473
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: think you've left a good impression, um, you know. And

474
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 1: and and so you know, I enjoyed it and got

475
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: a few chuckles out of out of the press conference.

476
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,400
Speaker 1: And and you need a few guys who's gonna bite

477
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: on some ankles and knees and and you would not

478
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: have been his kind of player, Barrick. You're not biting

479
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 1: any ankles or knee caps. Well, I don't know. I

480
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,479
Speaker 1: can't say as a defensive player if I was if

481
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: I were on defense, I you know, I don't know.

482
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 1: I you know, personalities change a little bit here and there.

483
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: Would you've been as safety, I've become a different animal, Dan,

484
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: not become a different animal. Couldn't you have been, Dion Sanders? No,

485
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I don't want to go that far, but no,

486
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: I love playing defense. And you know, of course, in

487
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: my generation, most of us growing up playing the game,

488
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: we played on both sides of the ball, you know.

489
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: So I absolutely love playing defense. And I played varsity

490
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:26,239
Speaker 1: defense in high school before I played offense. Um, you know,

491
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: And so I thought I was a pretty decent cornerback.

492
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I'd have to go back and look at

493
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: at the take, you know, but in my mind I

494
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: thought I thought I thought I was a pretty decent morning. Uh,

495
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: he's Barry Sanders, the Hall of Famer and uh joining

515
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: sporting event. Oh, I don't know what. Middle school maybe

516
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: you were never interested in after you got out of

517
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,239
Speaker 1: out of football. You didn't gamble at all. Didn't bet

518
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: on anything, no, no, nothing, no, I never did. I mean,

519
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: it was it was probably lasting. Why i've maybe in

520
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: the Raiders Washington super Bowl, what was that eighty four

521
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: eighty three or something like that, that was when Marcus

522
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 1: had his run. Absolutely, yeah, absolutely absolutely, yes, so uh

523
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: but yeah, I've never been a big gambler in that way.

524
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: If if I said you were a GM, you could

525
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 1: start your team with any running back beside you. Who

526
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna start with besides me? Any running back who's

527
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: ever played, Um wow, I would probably I would probably

528
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: go with Jim Brown. I would go with Jim Brown. Well,

529
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: I know your dad loved Jim Brown, but I don't

530
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,959
Speaker 1: know how Jim would do in today's game. Would Jim

531
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: Brown be Derrick Henry. I think he'd be Derreck Henry. Honestly,

532
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: That's that's kind of what I was thinking. I can't

533
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: imagine tackling Derrick Henry Barry. Oh, I know, I know.

534
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: That's why I'm glad. I'm glad. You know, Um, I

535
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: stopped playing cornerback, you know, move the running backs, you know,

536
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: trying to tackle that now. But Derek I think he's

537
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: the closest thing to to Jim Brown. Um. You look

538
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: at what he's done the last couple of years. Phenomenal

539
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: year this year, um, going over two thousand yards. I

540
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised to see him do it again. Um,

541
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: it'd be kind of cool to see see the first

542
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: guy able to do it twice. Um, you know I've

543
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: said this before. I think outside of my homes and

544
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: maybe Rogers, he's probably been the most dominant player in

545
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: the game. Um you know, so so yeah, he's been.

546
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: He's been phenomenal. But that that's but yeah, I guess

547
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: I go with I would go with Jim because I

548
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: think he I think he probably dominated the game. He

549
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: dominated the game like no other running back did or

550
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 1: has when he played. And so I got to give

551
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 1: the nod to mister Brown. My dad taught me, well,

552
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: oh I remember that. He used to remind you all

553
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 1: the time about you're no Jim Brown. Hey, look, I

554
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: mean and to me, that's that's still a compliment, especially

555
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: going from my dad. It wasn't really a k it

556
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: was a backhanded compliment. Yeah, going from my dad. You know,

557
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: that's like one of the nicest thing he ever said.

558
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: Why do you think he was so tough on you?

559
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know that he was tough as

560
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: much as just in his mind he would he would

561
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: say he was just preparing me and and just honest,

562
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: you know, that's that's how he felt. I mean, Um,

563
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: But the funny thing about the Jim Brown. Thing. Is

564
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: that really all my life, long before I was like

565
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: high school or college or any kind of book and

566
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 1: you know, Heisman Trophy, any of that. He just loved

567
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: talking about Jim Brown, you know, just because you know,

568
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: I was interested in certain running backs when I was

569
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: growing up, and he would that would give him, you know, um,

570
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: the motivation to just start talking about Jim Brown and

571
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: how great he was and how you know, none of

572
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: the none of the current running backs could stand up

573
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: at Jim Brown, you know. So he was just so

574
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: I don't I don't even know if he was about

575
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: you know the fact that I ended up being a

576
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 1: running back, just other than or just he loved Jim

577
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: Brown and that was his guy. Um, you know, So

578
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: that that's kind of how that was. Did you ever

579
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: get a hit where it really hurt? Like I don't

580
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: remember you taking on tacklers the way other running you

581
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: avoided it? But did you ever get hit like get

582
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: your bell rung or get really banged up one time?

583
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: My defender? Oh yeah, absolutely absolutely. I think. Um, my

584
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: first my first start, I remember was in the meadowlands

585
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: and I got the wind knocked out of me, and uh,

586
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: I don't remember even remember who it was. Um, but

587
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 1: but even you know, so that's that's probably the one

588
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: time where where I probably had to come out of

589
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: the game. But I think because of adrenaline and you know,

590
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 1: because you're you're in the heat of the moment, it

591
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 1: happens often, but you don't notice it, at least for

592
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,959
Speaker 1: me anyways, that was my personal experience. Um, it happened,

593
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: Um but no, I mean, yeah, but it certainly happened

594
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: after that. But that's the one that I remember probably

595
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 1: the most. What's good to see you. Looks like you

596
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: could probably give me a couple of carries in a game. Oh,

597
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: I love to man, I love to No, it's great,

598
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 1: it's great being here, man. Thank thanks for having me.

599
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: Barry Sanders is coming back. I think you want to

600
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: help Jared Golf. Are you coming back for the Lions?

601
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: Is that what you're announcing? You want to play again? Barry? Um?

602
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: You mean on the field? Yeah, running back. Yeah. I

603
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: hadn't heard that, Romer. But oh, let's start check into that.

604
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 1: Let's not to check into that. I have to check

605
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: into that. Are you saying you're open to it, Barry?

606
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: I doubt it. I doubt it. It's great to uh,

607
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: great to connect with you again. I hope you're doing well.

608
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: Probably playing a lot of golf, not doing anything else right,

609
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm playing a little golf. Um, you know, just taking

Speaker 1: to odds, Danny Sheridan, USA Today Handicapper's sports analyst. Last

621
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: year I figured out that Danny was picking the Kansas

622
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: City Chiefs. I asked him before the Super Bowl, but

623
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: he couldn't do it because he didn't want to release

624
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: his picks to his clients until game day. And I

625
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: understand it. But great minds think alike, and Danny Sheridan

626
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: joins us. You almost lost it, but you did get

627
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 1: the win for your clients. Danny, good to talk to

628
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: you again. Likewise, and Dan, before I forget, I want

629
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: to congratulate you and the dazzling Danetts on being named

630
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 1: by Barried Sports Media as the number two most popular

631
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: national sports radio show in the United States and hopefully

632
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: next year at this time they'll name you number one. Well,

633
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: thank you, Danny. You know I would rather be number

634
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 1: three than number two. Really, yeah, yeah, because it's like

635
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 1: on Monday if you say to Tom Brady after he's

636
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 1: lost and you go, hey, second best quarterback this weekend.

637
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: I mean, that's sort of the feeling that I get.

638
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to be runner up. I'd rather be

639
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 1: third than second. There, okay there, if that makes any sense.

640
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 1: All right, So you can't tell me who you're going

641
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,320
Speaker 1: to take this weekend. I realized that. And you've always

642
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:36,320
Speaker 1: told me don't worry about the point spread, right, Oh no,

643
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,320
Speaker 1: if you just picked the winner, you will have beaten

644
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 1: the spread eighty eight percent of the time fifty seven percent.

645
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: Dan against the spread is considered excellent. The winner of

646
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: this game has beaten the spread forty five times and

647
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 1: lost six The last team to win the Super Bowl

648
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: and not not beat the spread. Was Pittsburgh against Arizona.

649
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 1: They won by four two thousand and nine, and I

650
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: want to point out that Pittsburgh scored with forty five

651
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: seconds ago to beat Arizona, but that was the last

652
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: time two thousand and nine. So just pick the winner.

653
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: And again it's not a big spread, and you have

654
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: the odds in your favor, and that's what I always

655
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 1: try to do. Just pick the winner, ignore the spread,

656
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: and you should you should be right. But if you're picking,

657
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: have you ever picked the player like I would never

658
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,240
Speaker 1: bet against Brady. I wouldn't bet if it meant betting

659
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: against Brady. But is that sound logic at all? When

660
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: you look at a player and you go, I can't

661
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: bet against him, or I am going to take him

662
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 1: because of that player, not that team. Well it might

663
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,719
Speaker 1: be to some people, and I can't disagree. It's not

664
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 1: to me. Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady. I was thinking about

665
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay and Tampa Bay. I wasn't thinking. I mean,

666
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: that's important. Obviously. If Patrick Mahomes didn't play, I would

667
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: want no part of Kansas City. But some people count it.

668
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 1: I don't weigh it in my lucky with my dartboard.

669
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 1: And by the way, I give my pick on Sunday.

670
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: I actually make up my mind on Sunday for the

671
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: total and for the game, and that's when I give

672
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,439
Speaker 1: it to my clients. And one of the reasons you'd

673
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: obviously wait till Sunday is on the total is because

674
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 1: it could rain in Tampa. Hopefully it won't. I don't

675
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: have a theory for if it rains. So you're going

676
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: to take the over in Kansas City because you're thinking

677
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: that it's not going to rain as much. What I'm

678
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: saying is that in the article I mentioned, if you

679
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: have two potent offenses, and I'm going to ask you

680
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: this question, two potent offenses, you go under. I know

681
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 1: that sounds contrary, but it happens. That's the way I

682
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: handicap it. Two defensive stalwarths you go over. A good

683
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 1: example would be last year Kansas City in San Francisco,

684
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 1: great offenses. They scored eighty six and sixty four points

685
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: respectively in their playoffs. They went under. The year before

686
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 1: you had Tom Brady, you had the New England. I'm

687
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 1: trying to think it was playing that it was New

688
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: England and the Rams, two top scoring teams in the

689
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 1: conference a whole year. Guess what thirteen to three? So

690
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: my question to you would be, and I will question

691
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of sports guys and say, hey, when you

692
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 1: think of Kansas City, do you think of offense or defense?

693
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 1: They'll tell me offense. I'll accept that. So my question you, Dan,

694
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 1: is when you think of Tampa Bay, do you think

695
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: of offense? Defense? Are pretty much neutral? Balanced defense? Okay?

696
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: Then I wouldn't be able to pick the total if

697
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 1: that were the case. That's interesting, and that may be

698
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: the case if I find out or if I make

699
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 1: the when I talk to all these sports righters, if

700
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 1: they tell me what you just said, I will not

701
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: pick the total going in. It's if they say offense,

702
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: I'm going under. If they say defense and I believe them,

703
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: I'm going over. Paulie, what is the weather forecast for

704
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 1: Tampa high of seventy answered, Bowl Sunday, rain for sure

705
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 1: in the morning, overcast with the rain showers at times.

706
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: High tied four fifteen pm. Wow, does it matter if

707
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: you jump in on? The line was three and a

708
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 1: half and now I think it's down to three. Right.

709
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: Feels like a lot of there's a lot of Kansas

710
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,240
Speaker 1: City money here. But the instant reaction. See that doesn't

711
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: factor into you because you said it. You know, just

712
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 1: pick who you think is gonna win. Don't worry about

713
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: the points, Bret. I agree, I don't worry about that.

714
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: I just pick who think In this case, it's it's

715
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: safe to say if Tampa Bay covers, they should win.

716
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 1: You talk in three points and vice versa. Obviously, if

717
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 1: Kansas City wins, they should cover more than three points.

718
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: And any other tips that you would give for people

719
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: for entertainment purposes only this Sunday, Well, there's so many, Dan,

720
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: I hope they'll read the article in USA today. But

721
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,800
Speaker 1: the key there's so many. For example, prop bets. People

722
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 1: love to bet the coin flip, will Brady throw five,

723
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: twenty touchdowns, fifty passes, whatever, will the rushing guy do?

724
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: This bottom line is if you bet prod bets, which

725
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 1: probably in the total handle, prob bets are more than

726
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 1: any other bet, more than just betting the game or

727
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 1: betting the total. But I'm a prop bets. The public

728
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: has won prop bets two times from the bookmakers in

729
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: the last twenty five years. That pretty much tells me

730
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: you probably shouldn't be bet and prop bets, but that's

731
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,359
Speaker 1: one of the things. You shouldn't bet parlays. That's insanity

732
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: because of the odds, And you shouldn't bet teasers. Just

733
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: the name cannot teasers. My god, what is it before

734
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 1: I forget Paul? Paula paps right? He works with you? Right? Yeah,

735
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: Paul's integral part of that team? Is any Is he

736
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: like one of the heirs to the past blue ribbon?

737
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: I'm serious, just an unusual name. No, I wish he was,

738
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 1: but he's not. I meant to ask you that last

739
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,320
Speaker 1: year because you kept saying that, and plus he asked me.

740
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:42,839
Speaker 1: He said, if you'll mention that on the air, I'll

741
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: send you twenty five dollars. I said, I'll definitely do it. Wow. Wow, Well,

742
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: all of my guys their last names have to do

743
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: with alcohol. So well, that's what working with you will do. Dan.

744
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: I remember you from the eighties, when you're in your

745
00:39:56,080 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 1: wild twenties. Easy there, Danny, you had the over under

746
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: on me in my twenties. Would you have taken the

747
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 1: over over to be successful? Yes, but to be as

748
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 1: successful as you've been. I gotta remember I'm looking at

749
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: you a wild hellion in your twenties at CNN Sports

750
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: with me and no, I probably wouldn't have gone over

751
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: very talented, but listen, you would have never dreamed you

752
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: would have accomplished what you did. I think that's a

753
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 1: safe statement and I'm proud of you. Well, thank you, Danny.

754
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,479
Speaker 1: And you didn't have it given to you. You didn't

755
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 1: inherit the past Blue Ribbon Beer franchise. Well, Todd's last

756
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: name is Schlitz, so it's Todd good. Yeah, and then

757
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 1: it's Pauli Pampst McLevin smearing off PLA. Yes, we're not sure.

758
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: We change the name at Alice Island. I think it

759

779
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: my home. Well, I heard Dan Patrick wanted me to

780
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,399
Speaker 1: call into his show. Well the Chiefs must have won

781
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:57,319
Speaker 1: the AFC and we're headed to the super Bowl. When

782
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 1: I was just staying a little girl, my daddy isn't me.

783
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 1: I remember in Laggy yesterday it was nineteen seventy and

784
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: all that she's settling in Dawson. Then Buck Buchanan and

785
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: Bobby Bell people that she's saw her in the Super Bowl.

786
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: I heard my daddy, Well, fifty years that came and

787
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: went in. Sometimes we got close. Gonzalez never got to

788
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: go with Jamal Nor the Great Freest Homes so many

789
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 1: times it broke my heart, thought I might never know.

790
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 1: But the Chiefs just broke that playoff nurse, and now

791
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 1: they headed to the super Bowl. That was a year

792
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: ago when Melissa Etheridge gave us Chiefs are in the

793
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: super Bowl. I think that was a big hit, and

794
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: she joins us, now you're getting spoiled with your Kansas

795
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,040
Speaker 1: City Chiefs there, Melissa. I gotta tell you, it's a

796
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:55,360
Speaker 1: great feeling. It's something I've never felt before. And indeed,

797
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: look at this setup here. Now describe it for the audience.

798
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 1: It's only listening on radio. Those are watching on peacock

799
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 1: they can see. Is this your studio? Yes, this is

800
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 1: our streaming studio. When the world went upside down last

801
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 1: year and I realized that I wouldn't be able to

802
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,360
Speaker 1: have live performances for quite a while, my wife and

803
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: I came back into our garage and we transformed it

804
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 1: into a streaming studio where we stream Ethridge TV five

805
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 1: days a week. You've got a couple of cameras work

806
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: in there. This isn't just I mean, this is some

807
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: serious camerason you do, I think, no, no, no, I have.

808
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: I lead the league in cameras. You have more guitars

809
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: than I have, but I think I have about fourteen

810
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: cameras in here. Everything is on everything's on TV. Okay,

811
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 1: so you got posters back there, You got the light

812
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: into my warehouse, pulled some stuff out. Yes. Great. The

813
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 1: coolest piece of memorabilia you have in there is one,

814
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: probably I've pulled it up here. Probably this. U can't

815
00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:01,399
Speaker 1: see Chiefs helmet to two thousand Chiefs autograph helmet. I've

816
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: got Derek Thomason. What about music? What's that? What about music?

817
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 1: Your favorite piece of the I always love the one

818
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: where your guitar is over your back. Oh yeah, my shirtless? Yeah,

819
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: that's probably it's my homage to Bruce guitar slung over

820
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 1: my back poster. Yeah, that's probably it, although Bruce didn't

821
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:24,879
Speaker 1: have his shirt off when he did it. No, that's

822
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 1: where I went way to make I'm gonna actually take

823
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:29,439
Speaker 1: my shirt off. I have to go one step further.

824
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,320
Speaker 1: What if Tom Brady said, you know what, Giselle and

825
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 1: I are were celebrating our twentieth anniversary, Melissa, would you

826
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: play at our anniversary? Would you indulge your you know

827
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,840
Speaker 1: that wish the you know, because you probably might be

828
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 1: anti Brady being a Chiefs fan. Well, you know it's funny,

829
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 1: the huh, I'm able to have the spirit of a

830
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:58,240
Speaker 1: sports fan. And and you know, say, darned that Brady.

831
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: How many times has he kept us from the playoffs?

832
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: How many times is he? You know? And and everything?

833
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 1: Yet I am a person and I have great respect

834
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: for a great athlete. So you know, I respect the man. Okay.

835
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'd go to his party, but

836
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: I respect the man. But if Mahomes said that, oh, hey,

837
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 1: would you play at my wedding? Oh, I'm there, I'm there,

838
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:26,880
Speaker 1: I'm there. I'll bring uh, I'll play all kinds of

839
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: wedding songs. I can play wedding receptions absolutely, Okay, So

840
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 1: we ask I don't know if we formally ask you

841
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,240
Speaker 1: to come up with a new song, but I'm hopeful

842
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: you do have a new song for us. Well, I

843
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: happen to be standing here with my guitar. Okay. And

844
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 1: you know it's funny because I actually hope every year

845
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,760
Speaker 1: that I get to bring a song to you, because

846
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: it means that my Chiefs have done very well. And um,

847
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: you know it's funny because I I I sat down

848
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 1: to uh, you know, just you whip something up because

849
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 1: it's always fun and especially about football, and football songs

850
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 1: can be strange. But um i um, I actually looked

851
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,240
Speaker 1: at this whole year and thought this whole year was strange.

852
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:14,439
Speaker 1: So I wanted to uh kind of put my thoughts

853
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 1: and everything together. And it's actually it's actually, um a

854
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 1: song thanking football. It's called football Thank you. Okay, all right,

855
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: here is Melissa Ethridge, the Grammy Academy Award winner singer songwriter,

856
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 1: uh and diehard Chiefs fan. Twenty twenty was hard. Twenty

857
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: twenty was strange. Well, the Chiefs were the champs, and

858
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: then everything changed. Well, my heart grew heavy. Days were

859
00:46:53,760 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: fearful and dark. Would football even happen? The future was stark,

860
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 1: But the men and women of the NFL, how they

861
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 1: found a way. The stands would be empty, but still

862
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:14,240
Speaker 1: they would play, and they'd like to thank the NFL,

863
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:19,960
Speaker 1: specially my Chiefs. He gave me something to smile about. Yeah,

864
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:24,160
Speaker 1: you saved my sanity. Well, I know it's just a game,

865
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: but it really pulled me through. So I just wanna

866
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 1: thank you football, Thank you Well they played on through December.

867
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: Each team that gave the best, the Jets and the

868
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,040
Speaker 1: Jacks kind of came up short. In i C. East

869
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: was just a mess. You know, Bakers had the hun

870
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 1: VP and the Browns surprised us. All the Bills almost

871
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,399
Speaker 1: almost went all the way. Man, that's good football. I'd

872
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 1: like to thanking NFL, especially in my Chiefs. Yeah, you

873
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: gave me something to smile about. You saved my sanity. Well,

874
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:11,320
Speaker 1: I know it's just a game, but it really pulled

875
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: me through. So I just want to thank you now, Football,

876
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 1: thank you. Oh now Brady as a buccaneer, well he

877
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:28,680
Speaker 1: deserves all my respect. He brought them to the Super Bowl. Yeah,

878
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: he's a goat. And yet well I'll take my defense

879
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:42,840
Speaker 1: any day with Tyring Christen spags. My Chiefs have proved

880
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,160
Speaker 1: it all year long that they can run it back

881
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:51,839
Speaker 1: with Andy's plays and Kelsey saves when Tyreek leaves them

882
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:57,399
Speaker 1: scorched in the end, when Brady meets my homes, well

883
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 1: it's time to pass the torch. I like that the NFL,

884
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: especially my team. You gave me something to smile about. Yeah,

885
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:17,240
Speaker 1: you saved my sanity. I know it's just a game.

886
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:22,280
Speaker 1: But it really pulled me through. So I just wanna

887
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 1: thank you football, thank you. Oh you're adorable. Thank you.

888
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:39,239
Speaker 1: It's time to pass the torch. That's great. I love

889
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 1: that and the NFC East Line was great too. What

00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: But um, I have done Sprut. I don't think I did.

896
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,719
Speaker 1: I don't think I did jungle Man. No, I haven't

897
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 1: actually sang it. It's it's like a it's like a

898
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,280
Speaker 1: mini rock opera, you know. But do you know Bruce.

899
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,560

Speaker 1: my life. How intimidating is that? You know? He's not

903
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:35,839
Speaker 1: he is just as um personable and just a New

904
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 1: Jersey guy. He's really really a very nice guy and

905
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 1: just I just love him very much. But I would

906
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: think growing Up would be a great song for you,

907
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 1: my favorite, I love growing Up, I love She's the One,

Speaker 1: songs to love about Bruce, but uh, and not that

910
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 1: I could cover any of those, but I just those

911
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:00,800
Speaker 1: are always songs that read and ated with me for

912
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 1: some reason. They make there our history of rock, you know,

913
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:08,480
Speaker 1: that's it's a big part of the American life, I think.

914
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: But if you ever run into that rock star that

915
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,200
Speaker 1: they acted like a rock star and it wasn't a good,

916
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,360
Speaker 1: good funny. I ran into a few of them in

917
00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: the eighties and nineties, and I don't know where they

918
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 1: are now. So that's usual kind of what happens. It's

919
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: great to talk to you. I know it's certainly been

920
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,240
Speaker 1: a difficult year for you in a variety of ways.

921
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:34,319

Speaker 1: hits and we just play and it keeps me saying

936
00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 1: by you know, being able to make music, and it

937
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,320
Speaker 1: pays the bills. And what are you going to be

938
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:33,040

940
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:42,600

942
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,320
Speaker 1: Doesn't that sound like a country song sitting in my

943
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 1: chair with a vat of guacamole? Indeed? Indeed, yeah, maybe

944
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:58,520

Speaker 1: it feels like they could, Like didn't the Beatles prove

947
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:09,759
Speaker 1: you could sing about anything like an octopus's garden, tax man,

948
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 1: like just so many crazy things. They prove that it

949
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,839
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what the lyrics are, they can they could
