Speaker 1: reach out to Tregger. Tregger is going to join us

Speaker 1: had Chad out there cooking for us. The Tregger grills
Speaker 1: fired up every morning. King's Hawaiian is gonna have a
Speaker 1: slider Wednesday. I think, how good is this gonna be?

Speaker 1: What else would I be. Fritzy's gonna have his towel
Speaker 1: spread out and his lotions and how's the Chinese foot
Speaker 1: in Arizona? I have no idea. I have no idea.
Speaker 1: It's an Usher Friday. Marv said he wanted to play
Speaker 1: Usher music, and I said, good, I'm not that familiar
Speaker 1: with Usher. I know who he is. I might have
Speaker 1: met him down the road somewhere. But you've been supplying
Speaker 1: Usher music today. Yeah, we're talking about Vegas and Usher
Speaker 1: has a Vegas residence. Okay, so that's how his name
Speaker 1: was brought up. Okay, all right, I've recognized one song
Speaker 1: so far with Usher. Well, super Bowl week, we'll be
Speaker 1: in the club what do you call it, dug club,
Speaker 1: Duck club. We'll be in the club Botul you know,
Speaker 1: I mess up those lyrics bottleful above and then we'll
Speaker 1: is that is that lyrics from Usher actually has les
Speaker 1: from fifty because he has a song called in the Club. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna go out Arizona a Tuesday night. We'll go out.
Speaker 1: You know who I love? Who could perform at every
Speaker 1: Super Bowl and I'd be fine. You guys want to
Speaker 1: guess fall I know who your guy is. He's relatively young. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: Bruno Mars. Yes you said, yes, I love Bruno Mars.
Speaker 1: I mean he's got sort of the Michael Jackson James
Speaker 1: Brown feel. Yes, short like Prince. Yeah, I'm very short
Speaker 1: like Prince, but very good. Age seven seven three d
Speaker 1: P show email address DP of Dan Patrick dot com,
Speaker 1: Twitter handle it DP show. We've covered a lot of
Speaker 1: ground today. Lebron sixty three points away from Kareem's record,
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking he's going to do it against the
Speaker 1: Milwaukee Bucks. The odds are he's got the Pelicans, then
Speaker 1: he's got Oklahoma City, and then he'll have the Milwaukee Bucks,
Speaker 1: which to me would be nice little poetic moment there
Speaker 1: with Kareem. That's his first team that he played for
Speaker 1: was Milwaukee, and maybe Lebron breaks the record still waiting
Speaker 1: to see if I can get a prop bet on
Speaker 1: Lebron breaking the record by shooting a hook shot. Yes, Polly,
Speaker 1: you can get that because in the proper I have
Speaker 1: it's lay up, three pointer free throw. Other other would
Speaker 1: count with the hook shot. Yeah, but I want hook shot.
Speaker 1: You want it to find Yes, because that's a you
Speaker 1: could probably get. Really good odds are one hundred bucks
Speaker 1: will probably win you a thousand on that one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that that to me would be awesome if he
Speaker 1: did that as a tribute to Kareem and hopefully Kareem
Speaker 1: is there in attendance. Lebron talking about the NBA scoring
Speaker 1: record last night after the comeback went against the Piecers.
Speaker 1: I think it's one of the greatest in sports in general.
Speaker 1: I think it's up there with the home run record
Speaker 1: on baseball. It's just one of those records that you
Speaker 1: just don't ever see or think that would be broken. Well,
Speaker 1: it's different than the home run record because the home
Speaker 1: run record has controversy attached to it. To me, Hank
Speaker 1: Aaron's the all time home run king. Barry Bonds has
Speaker 1: the most home runs, So there's an asterisk by this.
Speaker 1: You know what Lebron is doing should be celebrated. It
Speaker 1: is incredible. He's not backing into it. He has been
Speaker 1: playing great basketball. Now. I don't know if there's another
Speaker 1: record that you would, you know, have in comparison to this.
Speaker 1: I guess, you know, before the controversy with performance enhancing drugs,
Speaker 1: then you would have said the home run record. But
Speaker 1: with basketball standalone, and a lot of attention attached to
Speaker 1: this because it's Lebron, because it's the Lakers and you're
Speaker 1: gonna break Kareem's all time record, you know, hopefully it'll
Speaker 1: be rightfully celebrated. Keep in mind, Janis had fifty four
Speaker 1: last night, twenty in the fourth quarter, so he's had
Speaker 1: at least fifty points in three of his last eleven games.
Speaker 1: The Joker had a triple double twenty two, sixteen and fourteen. Man,
Speaker 1: it's almost like you're getting numbed to this. Charles Barkley
Speaker 1: is going to join us coming up a little bit.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to him about all of these numbers. By
Speaker 1: the way, we have a gambling podcast and that's with
Speaker 1: Bad Larry Dylan, the graphics guy, and Shaye and Irving,
Speaker 1: and we just recorded it on Thursday. I mean, we
Speaker 1: do get around to talking about betting on sports, and
Speaker 1: sometimes we're betting on a lot of different things. Yeah, Paulie,
Speaker 1: you walked out of the room after taping the podcast.
Speaker 1: Those guys are crazy. They are They are absolutely crazy.
Speaker 1: They want to have a drinking game that's kind of
Speaker 1: a Wonderlick test and see who scores the highest. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, we got to talk about, you know,
Speaker 1: actually gambling here and they did. Here is Dylan telling
Speaker 1: us all the things that he's going to bet on
Speaker 1: the leading up to the Super Bowl. You're gonna bet
Speaker 1: on cornhole. Yeah. So there's obviously the men's in the
Speaker 1: women's finals, dan Um obviously taking Cheyenne Bubenheim money line
Speaker 1: two thirty five against Rosie Straker, which are two of
Speaker 1: the coolest names I've ever seen. But Cheyenne Bubenheim was
Speaker 1: a name. Pick alone. Anything else you're betting on here,
Speaker 1: Dylan yep Um for no reason whatsoever. I'm taking Arizona
Speaker 1: make the final four on basketball and plus three eighty
Speaker 1: that happened twenty two years ago. That was Richard Jefferson,
Speaker 1: Gilbert arenas So. And then I got to get in
Speaker 1: early dan Oscar's bets taking banshees of Vinish air and
Speaker 1: to win Best Picture plus two twenty five. I think
Speaker 1: that line's gonna move way four units on that value
Speaker 1: for units, that's a great movie. And yeah, I'm getting
Speaker 1: the value. It is a great podcast, not because of me,
Speaker 1: but because of those guys and Patrick dot Com. Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick takes a gamble with bad Larry Dylan, the graphics guy,
Speaker 1: Shaye and Irving. That was hysterical. They are buberine. They
Speaker 1: are entertaining. They are entertaining. All right, poll question for
Speaker 1: the final hour, Marvin's going to do the honors. Well,
Speaker 1: it's your month. It is marsh first, We're back to normal. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, So, uh so, going off of sorry, Donovan
Speaker 1: Mitchell and Dylan Brooks, they're a little you know, dust
Speaker 1: up yesterday. Hey, so the punish mean Okay, I gotta
Speaker 1: explain it though, go ahead. So Dylan Brooks is on
Speaker 1: the floor he plays for Memphis, and Donovan Mitchell is
Speaker 1: above him, but not like taunting him. And Dylan Brooks
Speaker 1: takes the back of his hand he punches Donovan Mitchell
Speaker 1: and the groin and be a cup check and he
Speaker 1: did it on purpose. And then those two went at it,
Speaker 1: and you Donovan Mitchell wanted to fight him. Okay, so
Speaker 1: you pick up your question from there. All right, So
Speaker 1: what would you rather take as a punish, mean, fine
Speaker 1: or suspension or Donovan Mitchell gets to return the favor
Speaker 1: to Dylan Brooks. Oh, oh, I think I'd take the
Speaker 1: fine and the suspension over getting a cup check from
Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell. Yeah, but if you get suspended for a game,
Speaker 1: it could be like seventy eighty thousand dollars getting hit
Speaker 1: in the junk. I mean it hurts for like ten
Speaker 1: twelve minutes. But is it so like any game going forward,
Speaker 1: Marvin that they play against you other Donovan Mitchell gets
Speaker 1: one free shot, no technical penalty. Yeah, I think you
Speaker 1: know what? Hey, before the game, even before warmups. Hey,
Speaker 1: let's just start. Hey, Dylan get over here, the rests
Speaker 1: pull him over. Hey, Donovan, come on, hands up, hands
Speaker 1: behind your backs, behind your back, Donovan, go ahead. You
Speaker 1: only have one. There's no du overs, so just getting
Speaker 1: with with one, good one. But what if Dylan Brooks says,
Speaker 1: come on our next games in La la work. Oh well,
Speaker 1: I don't know his social life, he cut. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know about that. But thank you. That's what I
Speaker 1: would have thought. Okay. A couple of phone calls in here.
Speaker 1: Let's see Nathan in La. Hi, Nate, what's on your
Speaker 1: mind today? A couple of things. Dan going to talk
Speaker 1: to you. I have a debate. I have a big
Speaker 1: debate question for you, and then I have a cautionary
Speaker 1: tale for the road if we have time for that. Okay, right.
Speaker 1: The debate question is I'm having a hard time to
Speaker 1: see deciding career achievements between Tom Brady and Lebron James. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you were to measure it all up, seven titles
Speaker 1: for Brady, five titles for Lebron, and Super Bowls appearances
Speaker 1: versus nine I believe nine Finals appearances all the records
Speaker 1: for Brady. Lebron's probably going to end up with forty
Speaker 1: K points if he gets to the end of his
Speaker 1: Once he gets the end of his career, well, let
Speaker 1: me ask you this, Nate, who do you think has
Speaker 1: the more decorated resume on the fielder on the court?
Speaker 1: I would say Brady by a small margin, but like
Speaker 1: it's harder because you could say one in one a
Speaker 1: in terms of pure talent between Jordan and Lebron. I
Speaker 1: don't think people would put taland from a talent standpoint,
Speaker 1: they would put Brady up up at the level of
Speaker 1: a Aaron Rodgers. So there's there's a more complicated debate
Speaker 1: in the quarterback world. Yeah, and thank you. Plus the
Speaker 1: dramatic pauses there with Nathan I really appreciate that. I
Speaker 1: thought we lost him. Tom is they're very similar. But
Speaker 1: I think what Lebron does. You know, Lebron's got to
Speaker 1: play both ends. He's on the floor. It's one of five,
Speaker 1: so he can have more of an impact on a
Speaker 1: game with his athleticism, with his greatness. Tom Brady can
Speaker 1: only be as good as well his offense, but also
Speaker 1: his defense, his his field goal kicker. He relies on
Speaker 1: more people than Lebron does. Lebron doesn't get any it
Speaker 1: doesn't He doesn't get the credit he deserves for going
Speaker 1: to that many NBA finals. He doesn't. We look at
Speaker 1: that as a knock that well, yeah, okay, you lost
Speaker 1: a few there. Well, we don't use that with Michael Jordan,
Speaker 1: who didn't get to NBA finals. He won six. He
Speaker 1: got to six. Tom Brady getting to those Super Bowls,
Speaker 1: the number of Super Bowls and the number of super
Speaker 1: Bowl wins. When when you win enough championships that we
Speaker 1: forget how many you have, You've had an incredible career.
Speaker 1: Lebron's going to be the all time leading scorer and
Speaker 1: the all time where he's going to be top five
Speaker 1: and assist maybe you know, top three and assist all time.
Speaker 1: Brady does have, you know, passing yards and touchdowns, But
Speaker 1: I don't think we celebrate that the way we do.
Speaker 1: What you know the stats in basketball, you know, all
Speaker 1: time leader in passing yards. Okay, he just barely passed
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, didn't he you know, passing touchdowns? You know,
Speaker 1: it used to be you got to three hundred touchdowns,
Speaker 1: you were a Hall of Famer. Now get into five
Speaker 1: hundred touchdowns. But I would probably go Lebron with a
Speaker 1: better resume, decorated resume. But I don't think there's a
Speaker 1: wrong answer in that, Yeah, poem, do you think Brady
Speaker 1: gets some bonus points for not being the most athletic
Speaker 1: guy and pulling off what he did and vice versa
Speaker 1: Lebron It's like you're six eight two sixty fast, you
Speaker 1: can jump, your agile, you have a handle. It's like
Speaker 1: all the gifts. It's a mixture of Shack and Isaiah Thomas.
Speaker 1: You know, you got the physicality and you got the
Speaker 1: ball handling. There's never been anything like Lebron physical physically,
Speaker 1: There's a grown man at nineteen, and he lived up
Speaker 1: to the hype. There was no hype for Brady. Lebron
Speaker 1: was fifteen. He's the chosen one at fifteen, and he
Speaker 1: actually surpassed the hype. I mean that Bryce Harper was
Speaker 1: on the cover of Sports Illustrated. He's really good player,
Speaker 1: probably a Hall of Famer. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: has surpassed the hype there, but Lebron has. Yeah. More.
Speaker 1: He was looking up high school basketball players on the
Speaker 1: cover of Sports Illustrated post Lebron, Sebastian Telfair, Jabari Parker,
Speaker 1: Amani Bates. None of them even came remotely close. And
Speaker 1: I think in every title it's like the best player
Speaker 1: since you know who writes like the best biggest high
Speaker 1: school prospects since Lebron, and none of them have lived
Speaker 1: up remotely close to it. Yeah. Yeah, that's that. That
Speaker 1: that Lebron cover too. I think he was going into
Speaker 1: a senior Yeah so, I think so like it. I
Speaker 1: think it was spring of his junior year. It may
Speaker 1: come out. It wasn't like, you know, he was eighteen
Speaker 1: and it was in May of a senior year, like, hey,
Speaker 1: look at this kid is coming in. He didn't have
Speaker 1: as driver's license yet. And I saw him play one
Speaker 1: basketball game in the tournament, and I saw him play
Speaker 1: a football game, and the football game stood out more
Speaker 1: than the basketball game, because you're going, that guy's like
Speaker 1: an end. He's six to eighth and he could run,
Speaker 1: and you're going, he's unstoppable. And then you saw him
Speaker 1: on the basketball floor. Well, he didn't dominate scoring. He'd
Speaker 1: love to pass, and here he is going to be
Speaker 1: the all time leading scorer in one of the top
Speaker 1: passers in the history of the game. Charles Barkley joins

Speaker 1: All of those skinnerd Yeah, Leonard Skynyrd, Charles Barkley kind
Speaker 1: enough to join us, kind enough to leave town when
Speaker 1: we get out there to Arizona? Is that on purpose
Speaker 1: that you didn't want to at least give me the
Speaker 1: code to your house? So I can go to the
Speaker 1: compound and play with your toys. You know, Dan, we
Speaker 1: don't let many people in my neighborhood. I'm not gonna lie,
Speaker 1: you know. It's just really unfortunate. I hate that I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna be there. I'm not sitting. I gonna be
Speaker 1: there the entire time, and that's really unfortunate. But I
Speaker 1: gotta go to Adela Force's golf tournament and I got
Speaker 1: to shoot some commercials, so unfortunately I will not be
Speaker 1: in town. I'm gonna miss you, Dan, because I wanted
Speaker 1: you to come hang out at the house. I wanted, Man,
Speaker 1: did you how much weight of you lost? I lost
Speaker 1: about sixty pounds. I'm getting in shape. Then my doctor
Speaker 1: got on my ass. He said, you see a lot
Speaker 1: of fat young people. You don't see no fat old
Speaker 1: people because they're all there. So he told me to
Speaker 1: get get it together. How are you doing it? I
Speaker 1: got a great doctor. Her name is Jacqueline Pearson. She's
Speaker 1: got me on this realistic. It's just some some type
Speaker 1: of drug. To be honest with you, I don't want
Speaker 1: people whining and complaining it but taking some drug. I
Speaker 1: take a shot every week. Got about two more weeks ago,
Speaker 1: I've been on it for like three months, but things
Speaker 1: are going great good. I want to have you Do
Speaker 1: you have your Super Bowl bet? Did you place it? Oh?
Speaker 1: Eagles all the way? Brother, Eagles all the way. Okay,
Speaker 1: you don't care the point spread. You've got them winning
Speaker 1: out right. Uh. I think they're gonna win no matter what.
Speaker 1: You know. I'm you know, they've been my team for
Speaker 1: a long time. And uh, man, they've been the best
Speaker 1: team all year. To be honest with him, Yeah, and
Speaker 1: uh and then you know Jalen Hurts. Uh do you
Speaker 1: know him at all? I know him a little bit.
Speaker 1: We did a thing back when Auburn beat him. Beat
Speaker 1: that beat him when he was at the University of Alabama. Well,
Speaker 1: I should't say at the Alabama University. He's a great kid.
Speaker 1: Shout out to him and whoever's been the word. Man,
Speaker 1: he's really improved than he's pablos as a quarterback. I
Speaker 1: cannot wait for the Super Bowl. You know, I got
Speaker 1: a lot of love for Travis Kelsey, but man, I'm
Speaker 1: just putting for my Eagles. It feels like every night
Speaker 1: somebody's getting fifty points in the NBA, where it used
Speaker 1: to be verse sixty back in the mid nineties when
Speaker 1: I was doing Sports Center, if you got fifty, you
Speaker 1: were leading Sports Center. Now it's just like, oh, you
Speaker 1: only got fifty, did you get a triple double? Like,
Speaker 1: what do you think is the biggest reason why we're
Speaker 1: seeing this scoring explosion? Two things lack of defense and
Speaker 1: the three points shot. You know, Dan, everybody's playing small ball,
Speaker 1: so there's no rim protection. So if you have a
Speaker 1: night where you're making a bunch of threes, you're gonna score.
Speaker 1: But you backed her in. Everybody's playing small ball now,
Speaker 1: so even if you're not making threes, you're probably number one.
Speaker 1: You're gonna get a lot more free throws. But also
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a lot more layups because everybody, you know,
Speaker 1: they made them. They made the game. Really it's and
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be the old guy. They've made
Speaker 1: it like it's a three point shooting contest every night,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna file more. And like I said, there's
Speaker 1: no shot blockers in the game anymore. But what would
Speaker 1: shock be in this you know today's NBA. Well see,
Speaker 1: and that's that's actually one of my biggest problem because
Speaker 1: you even got the seven foot dummies out there shooting threes. Now,
Speaker 1: if I'm a big guy, I would love to play
Speaker 1: in today's game. Yeah, you gonna maybe the guy I'm
Speaker 1: guarding gonna make some threes, which both big guys ain't
Speaker 1: gonna make enough threes to make a difference in the game.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna kill them in the paint. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do a great job offensive rebounding, and I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: to the free throw line a lot. So they've kind
Speaker 1: of went overboard shooting the threes. But you know, listen,
Speaker 1: you can look at a guy like Joker Embid, there's
Speaker 1: a reason there dominating. They're actually getting their big butts
Speaker 1: in the paints. And those why those probably the two
Speaker 1: lead front runners for MVP because if you're a big guy, man,
Speaker 1: it's so easy now because number one, you got so
Speaker 1: much more room to work with because with all the
Speaker 1: three points shooters, you really get to go one on
Speaker 1: one every time, and you're not gonna stop Embid or
Speaker 1: the Joker one on one. I think you had fifty
Speaker 1: six in the playoff game and might have had one three,
Speaker 1: three threes, two or three threes. But how would you
Speaker 1: how would you be used in today's NBA. Well, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna change my game. I'm gonna be being the
Speaker 1: paint Listen, Like I say, whoever I'm playing against, they're
Speaker 1: not gonna make enough threes the offset I'm in, the
Speaker 1: points I'm gonna score and getting my team in free
Speaker 1: throw foul trouble. So like I said, and like, who
Speaker 1: are they gonna put on me? They can't put one
Speaker 1: them a little small ass dudes on me because I'm
Speaker 1: gonna just murder him. So I think the trade off
Speaker 1: is better for me. Like I say, what Joel and
Speaker 1: be Joker, what they're gonna do as more as getting
Speaker 1: layups and dumps and getting the other team in foul trouble?
Speaker 1: What am I gonna do? You think I'm worried about
Speaker 1: my guy or seven foot guy or a sixteen guy.
Speaker 1: Are they gonna make enough threes that all set me?
Speaker 1: Hell No, I'm gonna get my layup. Like I say,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get more space because they're probably gonna put
Speaker 1: more three points shooters around me. So I would feel
Speaker 1: really good about my game, even though I'm a post
Speaker 1: up guy. I feel really good about my game if
Speaker 1: I played today, I guess it's Michael Jordan's Day two
Speaker 1: three twenty three. Well, I'm pretty I've known Michael joining
Speaker 1: a lone time. I'm pretty sure every days, hey, Dan,
Speaker 1: when you got a couple billion dollars and you were
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan, I'm pretty damn sure every day it's Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan's day. But would you trade your life for Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan's life? With what he goes through? I mean, privacy
Speaker 1: and all of those things you live are You're a person,
Speaker 1: You're a man of the people. Would you trade your
Speaker 1: life for Mike's life? I wouldn't trade my life for
Speaker 1: anybody's life, you know, man, I, Dan, I have exceeded.
Speaker 1: You know, you're growing up in a small town of
Speaker 1: a couple of thousand people in Alabama. You're not thinking
Speaker 1: you're gonna grow up and be Charles Barkley. Man, I
Speaker 1: have been. And I'm not trying to be humble or
Speaker 1: I'm just so lucky and blessed. I mean, I can't
Speaker 1: believe it, Dan, think about it. I'm growing up in
Speaker 1: the projects and a small town of a couple of
Speaker 1: thousand people. And unfortunately, no, I don't I don't mean that. Unfortunately, Man,
Speaker 1: I'll be sixty in a couple of weeks and I'm
Speaker 1: on the Damn Patrick Show. And I'm not just saying
Speaker 1: that you wanted the best to ever do it growing
Speaker 1: up in a small town of a couple of thousand people,
Speaker 1: and sixty years or later, I'm like, Wow, I've been
Speaker 1: honored and blessed to be Charles Barkley. Man, it's been
Speaker 1: pretty cool. Now Listen, Michael is the greatest, and Lebron
Speaker 1: and Kobe and Wayne Gretsky and Federal, all these guys
Speaker 1: are some of the greatest to ever do it. Serena.
Speaker 1: I don't want to leave her out, but man, hey, hey,
Speaker 1: as I say something myself, sometimes, man, you did pretty good. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: are we celebrating Lebron enough? Well, I want to say
Speaker 1: two things. I think I hope people have a great
Speaker 1: appreciation for Kareem abdu Jabbar. How great that record is.
Speaker 1: So hopefully the one thing will come out of this
Speaker 1: is two things. Excuse me, I apologize. Number One, the
Speaker 1: greatness of Kareem having this the record. I mean, it's incredible.
Speaker 1: But I've said this before. I think that Lebron James Listen,
Speaker 1: you know this debate, Preston, I always think the debate
Speaker 1: is silly when guys have no talent, they go on
Speaker 1: TV and radio and say Kobe. You know, they like
Speaker 1: to who's the greatest. Lebron has been the greatest of
Speaker 1: last Well, Kobe had a stretch where he was the greatest. Well,
Speaker 1: Tim Duckan had a stretch where he was the greatest.
Speaker 1: But I want to appreciate Kareem first. But I've said
Speaker 1: this before. Lebron I think has the greatest story, not
Speaker 1: just in basketball history, in sports history. We've never had
Speaker 1: a player because it's greatest Kobe and Kevin Garnett McGrady
Speaker 1: and all those guys where people forget they struggled when
Speaker 1: they came into the NBA. I've said this before, Lebron
Speaker 1: coming in at eighteen, being pretty good from the first
Speaker 1: day and never really getting in trouble, especially when people
Speaker 1: are out to get you in today's soil, media, camera
Speaker 1: phones everywhere. I think he's had the greatest sports story
Speaker 1: of all time. And it's amazing that he's doing this
Speaker 1: twenty years later. But to be great from day one,
Speaker 1: or really good from day one and never get in trouble,
Speaker 1: I think it's the greatest sports story of all time.
Speaker 1: He's Charles Barkley, the Hall of Famer TNT inside the NBA.
Speaker 1: Better career accomplishments Lebron or Tom Brady, tom Brady, tom Brady,
Speaker 1: I think that we should appreciate Tom Brady or you know, Dad,
Speaker 1: I'm explain why number one. You know, ten super Bowls
Speaker 1: is incredible. But the thing that's crazy why I put
Speaker 1: football accompliment ahead of basketball accomplishments is you know, every
Speaker 1: game in the NFL is a one game. You out
Speaker 1: and you're done. Yeah, good point. If you got Kareem
Speaker 1: uh Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Kobe, Lebron, Michael, you got
Speaker 1: to you got the best player in every game. You
Speaker 1: can lose one game, you can lose two games, you
Speaker 1: can absolute three games. But to have every game be
Speaker 1: a game seven a game every game in the NFL
Speaker 1: is a game seven, no matter how great your regular
Speaker 1: season was, to have every game be the end of
Speaker 1: your season. And for this man to make it to
Speaker 1: ten Super Bowls and win seven, it's it's one of
Speaker 1: the greatest accomplishments in history. I mean, you know, playing
Speaker 1: against Michael and like I said, I never played really
Speaker 1: against Lebron. But you got the best player. If you
Speaker 1: can like I said, you can lose a bunch of games,
Speaker 1: but to have every game be a game seven, I
Speaker 1: think with Tom Brady accomplished, it's it's arguably his career
Speaker 1: is unparalleled. I mean, I think about it as great
Speaker 1: as Pat mahomes is. Think about that, as great as
Speaker 1: Pat mahomes is. If he wears this Super Bowl, He's
Speaker 1: only got two. He's only got two. Dan, think about that,
Speaker 1: and I love Pat, even though I'm going with my Eagles,
Speaker 1: and I love Travis Kelsey. If he if if they
Speaker 1: win that he will only have two. He gotta get
Speaker 1: another handful. Have you hung out with Brady at all?
Speaker 1: I have? And he is the most humble, cool goat
Speaker 1: I've ever been around. But what do you talk about?
Speaker 1: UM said, I don't think we talk about sports. He's
Speaker 1: just I tell people, and you can just tell Dan.
Speaker 1: Like when I heard Teddy Bruski and Astley. You know,
Speaker 1: we had Von Miller on me and Ernie's podcast yesterday
Speaker 1: and we talked about uh, Tom, and he says, Man,
Speaker 1: the craziest thing about Tom. You know, I didn't want
Speaker 1: to like him when I met him, but he was
Speaker 1: so like cool and humble. I was like, and this
Speaker 1: is Bon Miller on it an all time grace saying, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: Tom was talking to me like I was just like
Speaker 1: some guy he had just met on the street and
Speaker 1: he was called had And that's the way when I've
Speaker 1: been around Tom. He's like, hey, Tchell, how you doing.
Speaker 1: Good to see you. And I'm saying to myself, this, dude,
Speaker 1: no he Tom Brady. But but man, but there are
Speaker 1: guys who are like that. You know, Jordan was the
Speaker 1: same guy off the floor as he was on the floor.
Speaker 1: Guys turn it on and turn it off, and and
Speaker 1: you know you've seen greatness that they're able to do that.
Speaker 1: Some guys can't turn it on or off. Brady is
Speaker 1: very man. I've only met two goats who are liked that.
Speaker 1: That's Tom and Wayne Wayne Gretsky. Those are the two
Speaker 1: golds who like they're really Now listen, I love Michael
Speaker 1: and Tiger. But nobody has ever said, oh man, they're
Speaker 1: really nice guy. Nobody, Hey, nobody has ever said, oh man.
Speaker 1: They said that Michael Jordan is the greatest player ever.
Speaker 1: They said, man, that Tiger was the greatest golfer ever.
Speaker 1: The words they've never been, oh man. If there's some
Speaker 1: nice guys. They're really humble guys. Like but when you're
Speaker 1: around and I can say, Tom and Wayne are the
Speaker 1: two goats that I'm like, Oh, yo, man, those dudes
Speaker 1: are really nice guys. And listen, it's like Michael and Tiger.
Speaker 1: They just did indifferently, but they're both two in my opinion,
Speaker 1: there the two goals. So they're sports. But I ain't
Speaker 1: never heard somebody to say, man, that Michael the Tiger
Speaker 1: a nice guy. Don't the words never been spoken? Uh well,
Speaker 1: Missian Arizona, and uh if I do a drive by
Speaker 1: your compound, like there's nobody there gonna shoot me? Will there?
Speaker 1: Oh there's a guard? Okay, hey dad? Because I hate listen, No,
Speaker 1: you can't. I don't want people comingside, neighbors coming by
Speaker 1: saying hey can out barrow sugar? Hell no, go to
Speaker 1: the store. I don't want a dad. I don't want surprises.
Speaker 1: I don't want people coming up to my house. Okay,
Speaker 1: fair enough, we won't. We won't wait till you're there
Speaker 1: next time. I hate that. I'm gonna miss you though,
Speaker 1: that because I really wanted to. I really wanted to
Speaker 1: take you to play golf. Uh I really did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you're now playing well, I'm playing great. Uh you know,

Speaker 1: Forces golf tournament. She used to best her and her

Speaker 1: like it all right, last call for phone calls, what
Speaker 1: we learn, what's in store tomorrow. I don't take Charles
Speaker 1: Barkley for granted when he's on, but he's he's been
Speaker 1: a great friend for over thirty years and we have fun. Uh.
Speaker 1: I love his perspective. Don't always agree with everything he
Speaker 1: says does, but he is accountable for it. But what
Speaker 1: he said about Mike Jordan and Tiger Woods, you know
Speaker 1: he's saying Tom Brady and if you're around Gretzky, you
Speaker 1: would never know what he did for a living, never,
Speaker 1: because you look at him, you go that dude, there
Speaker 1: is no way he played hockey, and if he did,
Speaker 1: he didn't play you know, in the NHL and he's
Speaker 1: so mild manner that it's it's disarming and he would
Speaker 1: never ever bring up what he's accomplished ever. But the
Speaker 1: quote about Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods, Hey, they're the greatest,
Speaker 1: they're the goats. But nobody's ever said they're really nice
Speaker 1: guys because they are who they are on and off
Speaker 1: you know, they're playing fields, they're killers, they are uh.
Speaker 1: The final results of the poll question there, Toddler, what
Speaker 1: would you rather take as a punishment stemming from Dylan
Speaker 1: Brooks Donovan Mitchell incident last night? Fine or suspension? Sixty
Speaker 1: seven and a half percent getting hit in the groin
Speaker 1: to make up for what happened? All right? Arizona Sports
Speaker 1: super Bowl history there, Polly Dan, there's been. I think
Speaker 1: the first one was in ninety six, the first Super
Speaker 1: Bowl out there was that Cowboys Steelers that was your
Speaker 1: hair is too puffy? When I met with Fox Sports,
Speaker 1: and that's when David Hill, the president, didn't give me
Speaker 1: the job at Fox Sports. I remember you came into
Speaker 1: the bar. I was a doorman at that that week
Speaker 1: was that downside on risk risk? Yeah, you and the
Speaker 1: guys came there. Superb Old forty two was two thousand
Speaker 1: and eight. That was in Glendale, and that was Brady
Speaker 1: versus Eli Manning. Yeah, and Eli Manning beat Brady won
Speaker 1: the MVP Super Bowl Arizona twenty fifteen, forty nine, Brady
Speaker 1: versus Russell Wilson. Of course, yes, I was. And then
Speaker 1: this one super Bowl twenty twenty three. Uh, Larry Fitzgerald
Speaker 1: is the executive chair of the Super Bow Committee. Makes
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. I've been to all of the
Speaker 1: Super Bowls in Arizona. Not a bad place to be, No,
Speaker 1: not at all. This day in sports history Polling nineteen
Speaker 1: twelve professional football sets and new rules. The field was
Speaker 1: shortened to one hundred yards. I didn't know as longer.
Speaker 1: Touchdowns were now worth six points instead of five, four
Speaker 1: downs will be allowed instead of three, and the kickoff
Speaker 1: was removed from midfield to the forty yard line. Change
Speaker 1: the entire face of the NFL or professional football. Vina
Speaker 1: Terry kicked his field goal on this day. And that
Speaker 1: was Tom Brady's first Super Bowl two thousand and two,
Speaker 1: and we were looking at how big of an upset
Speaker 1: this was. That you know that they were underdogs against
Speaker 1: the greatest show on turf. And I remember the great
Speaker 1: sportswriter Rick Riley said that wasn't an upset, and he
Speaker 1: was the first guy we had him after the fact
Speaker 1: on that Monday, and he goes, that wasn't an upset
Speaker 1: that the Patriots beat the greatest show on turf. All right,
Speaker 1: let me see Derek in Virginia. Hi, Derek will squeeze in.
Speaker 1: What's on your mind today? Hey Dan, thanks for taking
Speaker 1: my call. There's no one funny than sir Charles. I
Speaker 1: think it was Brian Reagan, the comedian that first brought
Speaker 1: up the concept of the interview question of a must
Speaker 1: win game, and he said, now we could loose tonight,
Speaker 1: we could lose tomorrow, we could lose the next one
Speaker 1: after that, we gotta get four. But the reason for
Speaker 1: my call is Dilford brought up the QB to change
Speaker 1: the game, Cam Newton. My contention is that it's Michael
Speaker 1: Vick style ten year contract, one hundred and thirty million
Speaker 1: dollars three point two three point seven guaranteed, thirty seven
Speaker 1: million yuaranteed. So I think Michael changed the game. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: thank you, Darren. Probably being from Virginia, maybe it's a
Speaker 1: home field advantage there from Michael Vick for Derek. All right,
Speaker 1: go around the room. What you learned today, Todd? Will
Speaker 1: Chamberlain supposedly blocked the lou Al sinder Creme Abdul Jabar
Speaker 1: hook shot once once, Marvin every day is Michael Jordan Day, Paulie,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Wayne Gretsie, Nice goats, Todd, what did I
Speaker 1: learned today? We all learned that I was Caitlin Clark
Speaker 1: best shooter in college basketball men or women's. Yes, absolutely, watch,
Speaker 1: watch or play. We could talk about how it's complicated
Speaker 1: with other banks to make redeem credit card rewards possible,
Speaker 1: or we could talk about how we discover redeem your
Speaker 1: rewards for cash in any amount at anytime. That's amazing.
Speaker 1: Learn more, discover dot com, slash regem rewards, term supply.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you on Monday. We'll be at Scottsdale Stadium.
Speaker 1: Hope you'll join us listening, watching, or joining us in person.
