WEBVTT - HOUR 3- Frank Vogel Oct 14, 2020 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520 You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:06.320 Sports Radio Final Hour. On this Wednesday, Dan and the 0:00:06.400 --> 0:00:09.160 Dane's Dan Patrick's Show will check in with Frank Vogel, 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:11.320 the Lakers head coach. She'll join us coming up in 0:00:11.320 --> 0:00:14.960 a couple of minutes. Dodgers Braves Game three, Clayton Kershaw 0:00:15.120 --> 0:00:19.840 moved to perhaps Game four, raise Astros. Can the Astros 0:00:19.880 --> 0:00:22.720 hold on and extend this series? Braves hold off the 0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:24.800 Dodgers eight seven. They're up two games to none. The 0:00:24.880 --> 0:00:27.400 Rays go up three oz in the Astros. Titans roll 0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:29.920 the Bills forty two to sixteen, despite me in a 0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:32.640 three and a half point underdog. The Jets have released 0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:35.879 Levian Bell. The Florida Gators are shut down. This is 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.280 a day after Dan Mullen, the head coach of Florida, 0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:41.800 said I want ninety thousand fans, and I said, no, 0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:45.199 you're not getting ninety thousand fans, and then you had 0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:48.560 a COVID outbreak. You're not even getting nine fans. There. 0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:52.400 There's no future for something like that, at least an 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:55.600 immediate future. Bad timing on his part Age seven seven 0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:58.120 three d P Show email address DP at Dan Patrick 0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:00.560 dot com, Twitter handle a DP shows. Good morning to 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:03.560 our radio and TV partners. Back to the Dodgers. The 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:06.440 only flaw in Clayton Kershaw's brilliant career has obviously been 0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:10.039 his inconsistency in the postseason. And he won his first 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:13.080 two starts this fall. He's eleven and eleven overall in 0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:16.960 the postseason. And we've seen this with players before, Tom Glavin, 0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:21.000 Greg Maddox. They weren't great pitchers in the postseason. Peyton 0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:24.920 Manning wasn't necessarily a great postseason quarterback. There are certain 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:27.319 players who were great in the postseason, certain players who 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:31.080 were great during the regular season. The Los Angeles Dodgers 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:34.440 fell eight to seven last night, despite a furious run 0:01:34.440 --> 0:01:36.720 in the ninth inning. They're now down two games to none, 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.920 and you know it's one thing to lose because of 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:42.240 a bad performance. He couldn't even pitch due to the 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:45.640 back spasms. And you'll see if there's a chance that 0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.320 he's able to contribute. But the season may come down 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:50.960 to Clayton Kershaw on the Mountain Game four, and Dave 0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.680 Robert says he hopes to have him back then and 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:56.480 Kershaw's teammate's gonna have to back him up. Pick him 0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:58.720 up as well. They have a ton of talent. They 0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:03.320 have everything from top to bottom. But right now Braves 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:05.840 have a two games to none lead and not getting 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:08.760 out of the LCS would be a total disaster. Doc 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.600 Rivers lost his job. They didn't get to the NBA Finals. 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:16.440 Dave Roberts knows it's World Series win perhaps or bust 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.480 for him. Pull question mclovin, what do we have?

Jose L two Va is number one right 0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:47.960 behind him, and this is totally unfair. Josh Norman, Yeah, 0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:52.760 Josh Norman got poster eyes by Derrick Henry. That's gonna 0:02:52.760 --> 0:02:55.200 stay around for a little while. You know. It's one 0:02:55.240 --> 0:03:00.160 of those where when they write your sports epitat, what 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:04.360 video do they show? Now? They're just certain moments that 0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.760 are going to stand out for certain players. Sometimes it's 0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:11.240 really good and sometimes it's not. Like Andre Igudala, he 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:15.120 was a Finals MVP, But do they show the block 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.640 by Lebron James in the NBA Finals. Not fair to 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:22.560 Andrea Gudala. But this is what happens. Sometimes you have 0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:26.720 those moments. Bill Buckner, Bill Buckner, borderline Hall of Famer, 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:32.400 playing on bad knees, bad ankles, and if he catches 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.440 that ball in the Red Sox win the World Series, 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.720 we would look at Bill Buckner differently because he would 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.760 be a borderline Hall of Famer. I think he had 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:44.240 close to twenty nine hundred hits. M I don't know 0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.720 much about him, but everyone says Jackie Smith the tight 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:50.560 end was like that Cardinals Cowboys Hall of Fame tight end. 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.320 And when you if you say Jackie Smith, I remember 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:58.480 the ball ricocheting off his pads in the game against 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:02.720 the Steelers and wide open touchdown. He's ending his career. 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.400 He was a great Saint Louis Cardinal tight end at 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:08.000 the time, and he got his chance. He's gonna play 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:12.040 in the Super Bowl. Dallas Cowboys had the ball right 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.640 between the numbers, dropped it. Yeah, bully. I just looked 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:18.520 up Barry Sanders highlights the great running back, and the 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:20.599 first one and the one that's most famous is he's 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.200 got a long run against the Patriots, number forty eight, 0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:26.040 number forty two of the defensive backwe named Harlan Barnett, 0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:28.680 and he got spun around. I mean everyone knows it. 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:30.200 You can remember that, you could picture in your mind. 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:32.760 I found at least six or seven interviews where Harlan 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:35.320 Barnett went back to his old high school and the said, hey, 0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:38.680 you got spun around by Barry Sanders, mister Barnett. That's it. 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.680 I asked Barry Sanders about that play, and I said, 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.479 you know who that Patriot defensive back was. He goes, no, 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:48.719 like Barry didn't know the opposition, And he said no, 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:51.640 I didn't know who he was. He goes why, I said, no, 0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.160 I'm just curious, Like you embarrassed him. He goes, but 0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:58.000 he embarrassed himself. I didn't embarrass him, all right, More 0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:01.160 phone calls coming up. He's a Frank Folle, the freshly 0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:05.120 minted world champ head coach of the Lakers. Congratulations coaches 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:09.280 had sunk in. Thank you Dan, and uh no, I 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:11.480 don't think it really had sunk in yet. I'm still 0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:14.640 trying to process it. What was the one food that 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:18.960 you missed when you were in the bubble. Well, I 0:05:19.000 --> 0:05:23.359 would say pizza, but they actually shifted the pizza service 0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:25.760 with about two or three weeks to go, and the 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:27.760 room service pizza end up being really good. But but 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.880 good pizza was one. Um, you know, I'd say ice 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:36.320 cream and uh, Jersey Mikes, you know, just let some 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:40.000 cold cuts off. Well you being from Jersey, you know, 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.520 I'm getting a shout out for Jersey. Mike's well done 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:46.520 by you. The biggest challenge from obviously being quarantined, but 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.479 just the coaching aspect of this. What was what was 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:54.160 the challenge? Well, it was just obviously the playoffs are 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:59.200 always challenging uh in themselves, but you know, with just 0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:04.600 making sure that you know everybody was staying uh, staying lifted, 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:09.320 uh mentally, emotionally uh, staying connected with our group. You 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:12.120 know obviously with uh with everybody being able to go 0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:16.200 home to their families. Um, you know, that's that's your 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.279 sort of that your release in a normal season, But 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:20.160 without that, you had to make sure you know your 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.200 guys uh, you know, once it's just locked in their 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:24.560 rooms all day, you know, and and had something to 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.400 do with the group. I was also wondering, I thought 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:29.520 the younger teams were going to do better in the 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:32.880 bubble because they didn't have families that Okay, we're away 0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:35.480 for a couple of months, there's no opposing crowds, there's 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:39.400 no you know, tough environment to go into. Did did 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:42.120 you sense any of that that the younger teams may 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:46.600 have played a little more carefree? I think there can 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:48.800 be some truth to that, for sure, you know, I mean, 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:52.080 you know, those guys don't feel it uh as much 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.880 as as missing your you know, your your children or 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.520 your wife. But you know, at the same time, you know, 0:06:57.560 --> 0:07:00.479 they have their personal lives too that they enjoy very much, 0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:03.880 you know that. I'm sure they were missing probably as 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.160 much as as we were missing our families. So I 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:12.800 think it impacted everyone. How do you explain playoff Rondo? Well, 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.440 I just think Rondo is a great, great basketball player, 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:19.840 like a great basketball player, you know, and you know, obviously, 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:21.640 you know, you get up there and age a little bit, 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:24.640 and um, you know, guys like that may not have 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:27.640 the ability to do it every night over eighty two games, 0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.000 but for the most part, Rondo is pretty consistent for 0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:34.360 us this year. But he just has that ability to 0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:38.160 find that gear in the playoffs and really become a 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.080 maestro of the opponent that we're playing. When you called 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.360 Lebron the greatest player of the basketball universe has ever seen, 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:48.320 and if you don't think, you know, you don't know 0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:52.760 what did you mean? What did you mean by that? Well, 0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:55.840 you know, there's there's a Lebron James that that you 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:58.800 see on Sports Center every day and for me that 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:02.840 that I compete against, you know, and um, being around 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.960 him every day, you just get a peek at the 0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:08.840 inside of his mind and what he brings to the 0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:13.200 table day to day. Um, you know, in terms of 0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:17.640 managing our team, you know, and the feedback that he brings. 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:20.119 You know, he's not just going out there and and 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:23.560 and you know, shooting and defending, scoring and defending. You know, 0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:29.280 he's very involved, um, intellectually in uh in the growth 0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:33.400 of your team, you know, with game plans and schemes 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:36.680 and offensive systems and spacing and I mean, the guy 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:40.160 has really seen it all. And you know he's got 0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:43.160 all the answers to the test. So you know, the 0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:46.320 intellectual part of it. I think just you know, obviously, 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:48.439 you know you make that statement and so hard to 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.000 compare errors. But I just I just know, I just 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:54.080 knew that was going to be the talking point going forward, 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.400 and it has been, and you know, I just went 0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.199 the way in that. For me, it was a different 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:02.360 experience seeing him on the inside and uh and the 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.720 level that he's able to take a group like we 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:07.920 did this year all the way through the championship. But 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.120 we love to compare generations. It's not fair to do it, Frank, 0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:15.000 I mean, you know where I'm going here. You think 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:19.240 he's better than Jordan. I grew up, you know, the 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:22.240 number one Michael Jordan ban on Earth. I mean, you know, 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:25.360 I was from the Philadelphia area, but in Jordan with King, 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:28.000 you know, and and he still is King. But I 0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:31.640 just to me, being around with Brown blah blah games, 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:37.720 my votes with him, that's simple. Yeah, I have said before, Look, 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.599 Jordan was six and zero. I understand all that. And 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:42.679 you can say he's the greatest player of all time. 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:45.400 I and maybe it's an easy way out because I 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:47.800 want to avoid the argument because I just think it's 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:50.120 a silly, you know, waste of time. You're never going 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.320 to convince somebody to change. You know, when you have 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:54.760 your first love or your first favorite band, or your 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:58.000 whatever it might be, you're not changing. But Lebron will 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:01.720 have the greatest basketball resid a in the sports history 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.079 when it's all said and done. Whether you want to 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.080 say he's the greatest player of all time, that's up 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:09.760 to you or whoever else, but he will have He 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:13.679 will be the most decorated or have the greatest, you know, resume. 0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:17.000 And to actually live up to the hype. Frank, it's 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.600 so hard for athletes nowadays to live up to the hype. 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.319 He exceeded the hype and he's still playing at a 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:24.840 very high He was the best player in basketball this year, 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.400 which is amazing for a guy at thirty five, with 0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:30.199 that much mileage on him. Once he got three posts, 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.680 three full seasons of postseason basketball, something crazy like that. 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:37.520 What he's what he's done this season and throughout his 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:41.679 career is nothing sort of remarkable across all sports. I mean, 0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:45.560 it's just simply unbelievable. And you know, I'm just happy 0:10:45.600 --> 0:10:48.480 to be a part of it. I was happy to um, 0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:52.559 you know, help lead this group, uh to the championship, 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.400 and you know, I know how much how important it 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:58.360 was to him, and just really happy to play my part. 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:01.160 And I get be a lot of credit because when 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.439 you were brought in, it was like, Frank Vogel is 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:05.800 going to be the head coach and his job is 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:07.680 to keep it calm, like he's supposed to be a 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:10.640 steadying influence. And I thought, well, he either gets all 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:15.760 the blame or he gets no credit. So that's fine, 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.920 and I figured you were. But that's that's why it 0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:21.960 worked out. I don't think you ever said how about 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:23.880 a little love here for the head coach, because you 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:27.480 did keep it calm and not easy, and then you 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.360 go into the bubble and you got to keep it calm. 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:31.720 So I don't know how many people will say it, 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:33.679 but you did a wonderful job this year, and it 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:36.240 should be pointed out. Not that you're asking for it, 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:38.600 but you know, you did a great job. And I 0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:43.320 hope people remember remember this, this role that you played. Well. 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:47.480 I really appreciate that, Dan, And you know, like I said, 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:49.640 I'm just fortunate. This is like the Lakers job is 0:11:49.960 --> 0:11:53.040 the greatest, greatest job in all of coaching, you know, 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:54.800 at least in basketball. I mean, you talked about all 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.040 the sports, but it's the greatest coaching job and all 0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:01.520 of basketball. So I'm just fortunate to be given this 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.839 opportunity and you know, to be able to play my part. 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:06.800 And when our championship in the first year, I didn't 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:12.520 getting better. So now the pressure is really on Frank. 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:14.199 But if I had told you when you get fired 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:17.520 by the Magic, hey you're going to win a championship 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:21.760 with the Lakers, you would have said never. Never, would 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.559 have believed in the million years. Yeah. Well, I remember 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:27.040 when I saw you in Orlando that day at the 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:32.079 hotel and when you were talking to who Chauncey Billips. Yeah, 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:35.079 that's right, Yeah, yeah. And it dawned on me when 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:37.680 you won the championship that here you are in Orlando 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:40.040 with the Magic at the time, and then all of 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:42.280 a sudden, here you are as a champion of the 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:45.320 LA Lakers. Crazy. Do you think you ever take your 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:53.840 family to Disney World anytime soon? No? Absolutely not, BAA, 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.760 although my daughters they allow friends back in Orlando that 0:12:56.800 --> 0:12:58.960 they want to go back and visit, so you never know, 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:01.120 we might be back in the area. Sometimes. When are 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:05.839 you playing basketball next season? Who? Knows. You know, I 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:09.040 read a lot of different things. I've intentionally blocked out 0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:13.000 anything regarding next year until like this season was finally over. 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:15.400 So now I just I just literally read the article 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:19.040 this morning. If I think Brian win Horst, and um, 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:21.439 I'll start thinking about it now, but I intentionally try 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.040 not to think about next year during this playoff run. 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:26.480 And when do you find out what Anthony Davis is 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:30.800 going to do? How involved are you with that? Uh? 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:33.760 You know, I'll be involved, but I have no idea 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:36.120 what the dates look like. You know, you know, I'm 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.080 sure once uh, you know, free agency begins, we'll have 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:43.439 an opportunity to extend him. And you know, all signs 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.280 up pointing in the right direction that that he's going 0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.880 to be a Laker for life, and that's that's all 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:50.439 of our goal. Obviously, such a terrific guy, he's such 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:54.600 a terrific player, and uh, he really exemplifies what the 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:57.199 Lakers are all about. So you know, I hope he's 0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:00.280 going to be here for for life. Well, congrats, coach, 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:02.280 and enjoy the downtime. Like you would be going to 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:05.720 training camp now, wouldn't you. Yes, we're just getting started. 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:12.680 Oh that's great. Well, enjoy the fall and the winter there, Frank, 0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:16.360 and congratulations once again, Thank you Dan, thanks having me on. 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:21.840 That's Frank Vogel. I remember Frank he was He was 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:25.080 a Division three basketball player. I don't remember him playing obviously. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:28.080 He played at a college in Pennsylvania, and then he 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:31.360 started to write letters to Rick Pattino. So Patino talked 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:34.120 about this. He was the head coach at Kentucky and 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:38.000 Frank Vogel was writing letters to Rick Pattino and he 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:41.200 wanted to transfer so he could be the student manager 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:47.160 on the basketball team under Rick Pettino. And then Patino 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:49.880 goes to the Celtics. Frank got his start in the 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:53.840 NBA as a video coordinator. That's basically I think you 0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:57.560 bring in the VCR and bring in the monitor. Maybe 0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:02.360 you log some tapes there. Boy crazy. He did a 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:05.520 great job in Indiana, got fired in Orlando, and now 0:15:05.560 --> 0:15:08.160 you're the head coach of the LA Lakers. Yes, Polly, 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:10.680 assuming the season doesn't start until January, this will be 0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:13.720 the first time Lebron James hasn't played on Christmas Day 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:18.240 in sixteen seasons. Yeah, I'm sure he'll be thrilled about 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:21.160 that because he'd always say, you know, if you were 0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:23.600 on a great team or you're a great player, great matchup, 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:26.160 you were playing on Christmas. You know that that was 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.840 supposed to be the ultimate acknowledgement. Hey, we're gonna start 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:32.920 basically start the season officially starts season on Christmas, and 0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:36.440 so the first time in sixteen years that Lebron will 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:39.960 be home for the holidays. All right, phone call is 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:42.320 coming up?

Here comes that? What stat of the day? 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:17.520 Jim in South Dakota joins us on the program. Jim, 0:16:17.560 --> 0:16:26.960 good morning, what's on your mind today? Hey Jim? Bye? Jim. 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:32.920 Jay in Charlotte, Jay, Welcome to the program. Dan six one, 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:39.160 twenty seven years old. Still can't grow chest hair. I 0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:42.520 got a quick store in the question senior year and 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:47.200 broadcast journalism class, I got the yips during a sports segment. 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:50.560 The dean of the journalism school was deservings some middle schoolers, 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:53.480 and I yelled right where mama hides the good stuff 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.320 instead of right where mama hides the cookie jar, which 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.200 I had stolen from Stan Drette the night before. It's 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:04.040 not a big deal, not plagiarism, but dean is suspending 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:06.600 me from on air before the end of the new 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.320 segment that day, and I couldn't do sports the rest 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:13.159 of the semester. Wait, it was a big time whoops moment. 0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:18.040 Why did you get suspended right where mama had some 0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:21.359 good stuff? I guess it could be interpreted and godod 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:26.080 and bad ways. Come on, what about First Amendment freedom 0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:29.760 of speech here? Jay? I don't Maybe he didn't like 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:32.560 the fact that I was doing Wayne Rooney highlights. I 0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:35.320 don't think people cared about the soccer back then. You see, 0:17:35.359 --> 0:17:38.320 you might have gotten suspended for doing soccer highlights, not 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:42.040 because you're your catchphrase. Some of the middle of cours 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:45.360 did call asleep during my segment. I think that Irot 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:47.439 it was time to hang up my hat, all right, 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:52.040 what's your question? Peyton Manning gave a blowing recommendation of 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:55.320 Adam Gays to the Jet CEO. Oh yeah, I mean 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:59.000 Gates became coaching the GM, and now he's completely undone 0:17:59.000 --> 0:18:01.480 the team a year later. I feel like nobody's asked. 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:04.160 But is it fair to say that Manning's general manager 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:08.480 track is not going well right now? Well, he's not 0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:11.440 officially a GM, but he's you know, when it comes 0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:15.080 to getting a reference, if somebody's got Peyton Manning is 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:18.440 a reference there on naming them head coach or promoting 0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:20.600 them head coach, then we might look at that differently. Now, Yeah, 0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:22.840 Polly back, you know, and this kid mentions that he 0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:24.679 used to sample from you guys at sports Center. My 0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:27.000 last year in college, we had a TV station and 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:29.520 some of my some guys I knew, were the sportscasters 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:32.760 on the Southern Illinois University campus TV station. They were 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:35.920 basically modeling themselves after you guys. Oh, I mean everything 0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:38.439 was you know, not Boom goes the Dynamite, but they 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:40.920 were trying to come up with something like sit right 0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:43.960 here and sit down, you know, when someone would get 0:18:44.000 --> 0:18:47.520 stuck out. There's a guy named lon Te he was 0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:50.159 a star of our broadcasting department. He had the voice, 0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.960 the looks, the chops, and it was he could have 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:55.000 done Sports Center that day because he was like two 0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:57.680 two and he would nail the stuff you guys did, 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:00.520 but his own version of it. Yeah, I don't. We're 0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:02.800 giving a lot of credit, but then we deserve a 0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:04.840 lot of blame. A lot of people model for the 0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:09.440 for every sportscaster or every wannabe. Felt like I got 0:19:09.440 --> 0:19:12.680 a great catchphrase, and I said, well do you know sports? 0:19:12.800 --> 0:19:15.399 Can you write? How do you look? Can you how 0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:17.840 do you sound? And then they look at you like 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:21.240 you're crazy. No, I gotta I gotta catchphrase, cow hide 0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:26.959 joy ride. Alrighty, you could probably be on ESPN News, 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:29.640 maybe not on Sports Center. Right later, he gets the rebound, 0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:32.240 passes it to the man, shoots it, and Boom goes 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:41.960 to dynamite. Uh, it's so good. Then I think it's 0:19:42.040 --> 0:19:47.560 Reggie Miller is the man, passes it to pacer net highlights, 0:19:47.600 --> 0:19:50.080 passes to the man and then even when he gives you, 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:53.359 Boom goes to the dynamite like he's almost embarrassed to go. 0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:57.480 Instead of going, Boom goes to dynamite. It's like when 0:19:57.520 --> 0:19:59.800 Stuart Scott would give you booh yeah, he'd never go 0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:05.480 booyah and boom goes to the dynamite. There were times 0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:10.200 I remember when we had a non catchphrase Sports Center 0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:16.160 and you weren't allowed to do any catchphrases. I think 0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:18.520 Keith and I just decided that then we were going 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:21.399 to have a catchphrase where we just mocked catchphrases, like 0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:24.320 the dumbest things you could possibly say. But you were 0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:27.600 just because we had this freedom and people expected whatever 0:20:27.680 --> 0:20:31.000 we were saying, like, yeah, it could be anything. It 0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:34.360 could be little Timmy's got a flat tire, Like you'd 0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:38.600 just throw something out there that ain't lemonade, that's cool aid, 0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:42.120 and you're just going, you know, and there's no real 0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:45.159 reference to it. You know, it doesn't mean anything. It's like, 0:20:45.200 --> 0:20:48.359 what's the dumbest thing we could possibly say? And the 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:50.640 fact that management was using in bed by the time 0:20:50.680 --> 0:20:55.200 we went on eleven o'clock, we could have fun. It 0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:57.560 could kind of stretch the boundaries there a little bit 0:20:58.400 --> 0:21:00.239 until the next day when they came in and then 0:21:00.280 --> 0:21:02.400 somebody would tell them something and then we'd get ratted 0:21:02.480 --> 0:21:06.679 out and we'd be you know, visiting Bob Eaton or 0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:10.480 Steve Anderson or John Walsh's office. Could you go you 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:14.600 and Keith come in. Oh good, and bringing Mike McQuaid 0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:18.040 with you, your producer. Oh good. You go in there 0:21:18.080 --> 0:21:19.639 and you get a tongue lashing and then you go 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:23.360 right thanks sir, Thank you, Sermi. I have another Hello everyone. Well, 0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:26.040 the Ball States softball team continued to play this weekend, 0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:29.240 and they were hoping to continue off of their straight 0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:31.560 three out of four losses. And so we'll take a 0:21:31.560 --> 0:21:34.720 look at see how that happened. They started off good, 0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:37.480 but then eventually but the ball State women's women's team 0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:43.000 shot down and ended up doing poorly. Oh now, and 0:21:43.240 --> 0:21:46.800 the child, we're going to continue on now. The Ladies 0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:51.320 Cardinals will play an Iowa tournament starting this Friday before 0:21:51.359 --> 0:21:54.600 the ball State baseball team kicks off its conference season 0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:57.359 this week. This weekend, the Cards will battle in in 0:21:57.520 --> 0:22:02.480 state rival Indiana Tomorrow. Tomorrow's game will be the meeting 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:19.600 between the two beating both first Measures are on the 0:22:19.640 --> 0:22:23.840 four on on the year, and they have won six 0:22:23.880 --> 0:22:26.560
