Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Final hour in this Monday gone by pretty
Speaker 1: quick here first two hours, we'll give you our best
Speaker 1: and worst of the weekend. More of your phone calls
Speaker 1: as well. Eight seven seventh three DP Show email addressdpat
Speaker 1: dan Patrick dot com. College football is part of the
Speaker 1: fabric of American life and for the season to be
Speaker 1: canceled be another devastating blow and what's been a very
Speaker 1: difficult year. This weekend, the Mid American Conference became the
Speaker 1: first FBS conference too called off games for the fall.
Speaker 1: And as I mentioned the last couple of hours, the
Speaker 1: information I got was Northern Illinois was the one that
Speaker 1: started this. Northern Illinois said we're not going to play
Speaker 1: this year. The Mid American Conference all of their presidents
Speaker 1: got together and then said, well we're not going to
Speaker 1: play then as a conference, now I'm getting information. I
Speaker 1: got information at eight am this morning that the Big
Speaker 1: Ten and the Pac twelve are scheduled to announce tomorrow
Speaker 1: that they will not be playing ball in the fall.
Speaker 1: Some of the other information that I've received is that
Speaker 1: the acc in the Big twelve are on the fence,
Speaker 1: not quite sure if they're going to play or not.
Speaker 1: The SEC is trying to get a delay and have
Speaker 1: teams join them. The SEC's looking at exclusive TV contracts
Speaker 1: right now. Three Big Ten teams that my source spoke
Speaker 1: to said it's done. It's a foregone conclusion that the
Speaker 1: Big Ten will not be playing football. There were two
Speaker 1: presidents in the Big Ten who voted to play. That
Speaker 1: was Nebraska and Iowa. Just got report from the Des
Speaker 1: Moines Register that Iowa has canceled their practice for today.
Speaker 1: That's all I know. Not a good sign. So that's
Speaker 1: just some of the information that I've received so far
Speaker 1: this morning that the Pac twelve and the Big Ten
Speaker 1: are look it looks like they're going to announce tomorrow
Speaker 1: that they're going to cancel the ACC Big twelve from
Speaker 1: what I'm hearing with the Big Twelve, I spent the
Speaker 1: whole weekend talking to this source because this was what
Speaker 1: was going on over the last seventy two hours with
Speaker 1: college football. I don't know what changed from last week
Speaker 1: when the Big Ten announced its schedule and then I
Speaker 1: go what happened in the last five days. The Pac
Speaker 1: twelve didn't want to be the first conference to cancel.
Speaker 1: From what I'm told, Oklahoma and Texas are fighting the
Speaker 1: rest of the Big Twelve to continue playing football. The
Speaker 1: MAC dropped football because they don't want they don't have
Speaker 1: the money to test safety a big issue, but money
Speaker 1: was the impetus. Northern Illinois was pulling out and led
Speaker 1: the charge. So just some of the information that I
Speaker 1: have this morning and got over the weekend. I had
Speaker 1: some people who reached out and said, well, you had
Speaker 1: Pat forty on. You know, you say you're unbiased. Why
Speaker 1: don't you have Joel clad on it. I love having
Speaker 1: Joel Klatt on. It's great analysts for Fox Sports. We've
Speaker 1: had him on many many times, and I know that
Speaker 1: he said, hey, you know, we want these players to
Speaker 1: speak up, get them back on the field. I'm rooting
Speaker 1: for college football. I need college football. I'm the one
Speaker 1: that watches the MAC. I'm the one that watches the
Speaker 1: noon game on ESPN when it's Maryland versus Rutgers. By
Speaker 1: request Joel clad on the program, Joel, thanks for joining us. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: no problem. How are you? I'm doing okay here? How
Speaker 1: do you sum up the past twenty four forty eight
Speaker 1: hours here with college football liability? Yeah? That's though some
Speaker 1: of them you know, I think it has turned into
Speaker 1: an interesting case study in what happens when you actually
Speaker 1: get to the decision maker. You know, back back when
Speaker 1: I was first married to my wife, she was in
Speaker 1: business to business sales and she would sell copiers, right,
Speaker 1: And it's one of the toughest things that to actually do.
Speaker 1: And the the principle that she always talked about was
Speaker 1: that you've got to get to the decision maker, right.
Speaker 1: So that's what she would try to do every time
Speaker 1: she walked into a business. Well, what we've been doing
Speaker 1: over the last few months, Dan is we have not
Speaker 1: been getting to the decision maker. Once the presidents got
Speaker 1: into the room and they started looking at this not
Speaker 1: from a player safety aspect, from a book, from a
Speaker 1: liability aspect, they started looking for ways to punt. Because
Speaker 1: I want to be very clear, I believe players believe,
Speaker 1: athletic directors believe coaches believe that the players are safer
Speaker 1: within the structure, the protocols and the procedures of trying
Speaker 1: to play a college football season, testing twice a week,
Speaker 1: medical obviously available, the training, the nutrition, the structure of
Speaker 1: college football. They are safer in that environment, being tested,
Speaker 1: being monitored, being within all of those procedures. Then if
Speaker 1: they were to just say, hey, the season is canceled
Speaker 1: and you can go on your way. If they go
Speaker 1: out into the normal course of life, they are much
Speaker 1: more likely, I think, to contract the virus. Not only that,
Speaker 1: but they at times probably won't even know it because
Speaker 1: this age group is majority of the case asymptomatic when
Speaker 1: they contract the virus. So again, I don't think that
Speaker 1: this is about trying to keep players safe, because I
Speaker 1: think that they can keep players safer within the structure
Speaker 1: of football. I believe that this is about liability. But
Speaker 1: the only thing that changed from the time that schedules
Speaker 1: came out early last week to now is that the
Speaker 1: decision makers got in the room, the ones that are
Speaker 1: actually standing at the vault door of the financial shoe
Speaker 1: strings of these universities, because what they don't want to
Speaker 1: see is the growing crowd of liability lawyers that are
Speaker 1: out there and plaintiffs lawyers that are out there absolutely
Speaker 1: frostling at the mouth to try to bring a case
Speaker 1: against the university or a conference. Yeah, that was the
Speaker 1: word that was singled out for me this morning, and
Speaker 1: my source said, I'll sum it up in one word, liability.
Speaker 1: So when you said that, you know, that's it just
Speaker 1: reinforces what is being said throughout college football right now.
Speaker 1: But can the SEC. From what I'm told, the SEC
Speaker 1: is trying to see if they can bring in some
Speaker 1: people and they're looking at, you know, an exclusive TV
Speaker 1: contract like the SEC still trying to get this up
Speaker 1: and running. Can you see maybe the SEC as an
Speaker 1: outlier playing football this year? Yeah? I can. I think
Speaker 1: that this is what's so fascinating about the structure or
Speaker 1: lack thereof of college football is that, you know, it's
Speaker 1: it's not one size fits all and no one person
Speaker 1: that's going to make the decision for every single conference
Speaker 1: or are they going to make the decision for every
Speaker 1: single university. Here's what I also think is interesting. Then
Speaker 1: you could take it a step further. I've talked to
Speaker 1: at least two athletic directors that have told me, regardless
Speaker 1: of what their conference does, if their governor will allow it,
Speaker 1: they will go out and try to find football games.
Speaker 1: So think about so think about that. Right like state
Speaker 1: by state, it is to some degree the wild wild
Speaker 1: West that we're entering into because of the lack of
Speaker 1: structure that we've all known about in college football, and
Speaker 1: we've all lamented it in the form of like, oh,
Speaker 1: the postseason and the playoff and why isn't there better
Speaker 1: scheduling and so, But now it's like real world, like
Speaker 1: how do we get teams on the field? How do
Speaker 1: we protect kids the best way that we possibly can?
Speaker 1: And I would just go back to the point I
Speaker 1: want to reiterate it if you don't mind, is that
Speaker 1: I absolutely believe and most everybody that I talked to
Speaker 1: within the sport believes that the kids are going to
Speaker 1: be safer within the structure of college football than than
Speaker 1: outside of the structure of college football. So if they
Speaker 1: punt on this season, it is not for health and
Speaker 1: safety reasons. I just I firmly believe that. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: agree with you, And I even brought that up to
Speaker 1: Pad forty that you know, aren't these football players, you know,
Speaker 1: the Power five conferences that can afford this. I was
Speaker 1: told the Mid American Conference doesn't have the money for
Speaker 1: all the testing that it was going to take in
Speaker 1: Northern Illinois was pulling the cord on this, and so
Speaker 1: they said, when then we have to shut this down?
Speaker 1: The Powerful only that Dan but they but they lost
Speaker 1: their revenue games, right, their only revenue structure is to play,
Speaker 1: you know, basically for if you're the MAC the Big Ten,
Speaker 1: more than maybe the ACC. And when you lose those
Speaker 1: revenue games because those conferences are going to go a
Speaker 1: conference only, there's there's no financial viability to even trying
Speaker 1: to play. But yes, go ahead. And that's the way
Speaker 1: it was with Connecticut. When Connecticut decided to shut down.
Speaker 1: They were an independent, it's not a big revenue producing sport,
Speaker 1: and they had lost games in the ACC and uh,
Speaker 1: you know some of the other conferences, so they they
Speaker 1: basically had no choice but to shut down. I just
Speaker 1: don't know if there's this movement with college players, some
Speaker 1: of the marquee players. Trevor Lawrence like, what can be done?
Speaker 1: Do you think of the next four or five six days?
Speaker 1: Would players sign a waiver? Can you do something like that?
Speaker 1: Is there something to reduce the liability or remove liability?
Speaker 1: And how quickly can you do something like this? You know,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I wish I was smarter I would
Speaker 1: figure this thing out, right, But I do know just procedurally,
Speaker 1: I think that there are a couple of things that
Speaker 1: I would want to speak to and that is the
Speaker 1: overall structure of the schedule of college football as well
Speaker 1: as the everyday life of the college football player. Okay,
Speaker 1: so I'll speak to those two things. Let's start with
Speaker 1: the life of the college football player. If they're going
Speaker 1: to be within these testing protocols, then that bubble that
Speaker 1: is created, Remember, is a little bit different than any
Speaker 1: other sport, because they can just be around their team.
Speaker 1: And if you're worried about them congregating with other students
Speaker 1: on campus, then I think it's very easy by just
Speaker 1: putting all of their classes online. So you create a
Speaker 1: little bit of an academic bubble for the football team.
Speaker 1: And most of these kids, by the way, and I
Speaker 1: know this is different from when the whin all of
Speaker 1: us were in school, but most of these college football
Speaker 1: players are taking most of their classes online. Anyways, I
Speaker 1: would just move the entire football team that their entire
Speaker 1: scheduled online classes. And then the next thing I would
Speaker 1: do is I would actually expand the season, not the
Speaker 1: number of games, but the number of weeks that we'd
Speaker 1: be trying to play these games. Because the other element
Speaker 1: that these decision makers are talking about is that with
Speaker 1: a protocol or a procedure, of a fourteen day isolation
Speaker 1: or quarantine with positive tests, which we all know will
Speaker 1: be inevitable. I think that what they're finding out and
Speaker 1: seeing with let's say Major League Baseball, is that it's
Speaker 1: going to be incredibly difficult to play every single game,
Speaker 1: and you're going to have cancelations and delays and stops
Speaker 1: and starts and so on and so forth. Then they're
Speaker 1: going to try to avoid that by expanding the length
Speaker 1: of the season, not the number of games. What you
Speaker 1: would do, at least in my model, is that you
Speaker 1: would play a game every two weeks. Yeah. So what
Speaker 1: that would allow for is more testing and then time
Speaker 1: for isolation and quarantine, and yet not losing games because
Speaker 1: players are isolated in quarantine, you can get them back
Speaker 1: to it better. I think you can protect the player
Speaker 1: better if you're playing every two weeks rather than trying
Speaker 1: to have like this sprint to the finish of like
Speaker 1: ten games in twelve weeks. Yeah. So that's the two
Speaker 1: things I would do. Yeah, And I'd suggested if you
Speaker 1: did sixteen weeks and you did eight games, then you
Speaker 1: would have that ability to almost hit the reset button.
Speaker 1: And I agree with you on that. And look, this
Speaker 1: is a fluid situation, Joel, But I don't know where
Speaker 1: we're going. I knew where we were, at least I
Speaker 1: thought I did, and now I'm not sure what's going
Speaker 1: to happen by weeks in, but it doesn't look good.
Speaker 1: And I appreciate you joining us on short notice. Always
Speaker 1: love your insights. Yeah, no problem, I appreciate you having
Speaker 1: me on. Have a good day button, all right, that's
Speaker 1: Joe Klint, Fox Sports. Yeah, lots changed here. If you
Speaker 1: played an eight game schedule and did it over sixteen
Speaker 1: weeks and then you could have another conference that was
Speaker 1: you know, so you staggered them, so then you could
Speaker 1: have conference games. The Big ten would be one weekend,
Speaker 1: and the Big twelve would be one weekend Pack twelve
Speaker 1: and then the ACC maybe the SEC would be in there.
Speaker 1: Maybe you could do something like that and then you
Speaker 1: could ensure, you know, even more safety precautions would be
Speaker 1: put in place there. Yeah, Paul and Dan, if you
Speaker 1: started a sixteen week, eight game schedule the first weekend
Speaker 1: of September, you would still wrap up the college football
Speaker 1: regular season before Christmas, and you so it would not
Speaker 1: affect a fourteen playoff. A couple of phone calls here
Speaker 1: and then we'll take a break. T J and Texas
Speaker 1: joins us. TJ, thanks for holding what's on your mind?
Speaker 1: Best and worst of the weekend? He Dan, thanks for
Speaker 1: taking my call again. Two best first is hearing Jim
Speaker 1: Nancy's voice again during a major just sounds just makes
Speaker 1: the entire tournament experience on different on TV. And my
Speaker 1: second one is my Phoenix Suns going five and oh
Speaker 1: in the bubble so far, and they're gonna make it
Speaker 1: six and oh tonight with the win over. Okay, see,
Speaker 1: thanks for taking my call. Guys, have a good day,
Speaker 1: all right to Jay, Yeah, the Suns are playing well.
Speaker 1: Maybe Devin Booker doesn't need to get out of Phoenix,
Speaker 1: Chris and Arizona. Hi Chris, what do you have for
Speaker 1: me today? Hey? Dan? I just wanted to say my
Speaker 1: best and worst of the weekend was the previous color
Speaker 1: of the five and no Phoenix Suns. And then the
Speaker 1: worst is uh, Draymond Green getting fined fifty thousand for
Speaker 1: wanton Booker out of Phoenix. With all the stars that leave,
Speaker 1: it's a pretty fair statement. All right, Well, thank you, Chris. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Devin Booker signed that contract extension, didn't he don he
Speaker 1: have like a one hundred and fifty eight million dollars
Speaker 1: coming his way? He really wanted to get out of there. Uh,
Speaker 1: let me see Derek in Virginia joining us. Hi, Derek,
Speaker 1: what do you have? Hey, guys, thanks for taking my
Speaker 1: call for five eleven one seventy five and UM, I
Speaker 1: just want to say thank you for what you do
Speaker 1: so at No. One and my best of the weekend
Speaker 1: is Mari Carlo when in the pga um that smiles
Speaker 1: continued Joe, and just that shot on sixteen was absolutely unbelievable.
Speaker 1: But the main reason I wanted to call as I
Speaker 1: want to tell my cheating story in support of courtesy. UM.
Speaker 1: What I did was I'm in an ape chemistry exam
Speaker 1: coming up in the afternoon, so I had a periodic
Speaker 1: table in my pocket. I went into the bathroom stall
Speaker 1: and I wrote the periodic cable invertibly on my man boots.
Speaker 1: And then what I would do during the test in
Speaker 1: the afternoons, I looked down my shirt and white my
Speaker 1: brow to tend to wipe my brow and uh so, yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm totally proud of that. All right, there is
Speaker 1: I would guess an expert on this type of topic
Speaker 1: anytime the proof is on your body. That's terrible. It's
Speaker 1: almost impossible to dispose, and they wiping the brow move
Speaker 1: is that's amateur hour? Better than that? Let me go
Speaker 1: to the resident cheater. Have you seen a periodic table
Speaker 1: the elemas that's a lot to fit on a chest
Speaker 1: or anywhere, and the little numbers for the atomic radii
Speaker 1: and valence electrons and all the things that go into
Speaker 1: the periodic tabile don't don't try, no, don't try to
Speaker 1: show off. I think you're better enough to try to
Speaker 1: figure out what to do with Kuprick sulfate without trying
Speaker 1: to read it. If you are a cheater, okay, you're
Speaker 1: a cheater. You don't meet girls with Cooper sulfate or whatever.
Speaker 1: That is. What were you talking about? Yeah? What did
Speaker 1: you just say? The atomic radii and the Koprick sulfates
Speaker 1: and the periodic table, the elms you have the coefficients
Speaker 1: and the subscripts and balancing incursions, excel and endothermic reaction.
Speaker 1: How did you possibly meet your wife? Luke uh baby
Speaker 1: iambic pain Tameter. Yeah, because you got Derek Jeter on
Speaker 1: the horn. Oh that's right, that was probably what a
Speaker 1: bait and switch. That is, you're on the phone with
Speaker 1: Derek Jeter and then Todd shows up. That was the
Speaker 1: first time you were unprofessional? Yeah, that bet if you were. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I made Jim Moore, who's the Saints coach at the time,
Speaker 1: spend a half hour with me before going on a
Speaker 1: show that I was working on to try to tell
Speaker 1: me all the best restaurants so that I can impress
Speaker 1: my now wife or where I should take her in
Speaker 1: New Orleans to eat dinner. And then you had Derek
Speaker 1: Jeter call your wife from his hotel room right before
Speaker 1: a Lima was picking him up to come do do
Speaker 1: a sports talk show too, And I got Jen to
Speaker 1: come out of her classrooms so they can chat and
Speaker 1: he can stay hi to her for a minute. That's
Speaker 1: so unprofessional. And then you got the Botzer and Botmitzer videos.
Speaker 1: Oh well that we know. That was almost that was
Speaker 1: almost a fireball offense because the first your son and
Speaker 1: then you were told not to, and then you had
Speaker 1: your daughter and you still did it. But that was
Speaker 1: less sports people, that was more I know. I know, Nickelodeon, Disney,
Speaker 1: I know, and look, I understand why you did it,
Speaker 1: but I don't know if you understand why you shouldn't
Speaker 1: have done it. I don't think it's not any I
Speaker 1: think I think that's the key, Like you don't know
Speaker 1: that you did, and you're not quite sure why anybody
Speaker 1: was upset. It's a cloud of denial that I live. Yes, Yeah,
Speaker 1: the best part of those videos was that for like
Speaker 1: months leading up to and then months, if not years after,
Speaker 1: somebody would be like, oh, hey, by the way, Todd,
Speaker 1: I'll get you that video, or hey, had the video workout?
Speaker 1: Did that? And it would be like, you know, Keanu
Speaker 1: Reeves being like, hey, Todd, how did that video workout? It? Okay? Yes? Boy? What?
Speaker 1: I still think the Jeter thing might be worse by
Speaker 1: Todd because Todd was a young man in the industry
Speaker 1: and asking a young yea, he didn't know better? Then
Speaker 1: he knew better with the bar mitzvah, Well he knew
Speaker 1: better and chose not to. We flew Derek Jeter, a
Speaker 1: coach from Newark to Lax. Imagine trying to do that
Speaker 1: these days, Oh my god, like thirty four was on
Speaker 1: the coverup sports ilstraded Rookie of the Year. I guess
Speaker 1: he didn't know better. Is just one of the World Series.
Speaker 1: Next thing you know, he's on a coach flight and
Speaker 1: the back of a plane from Newark to LX to
Speaker 1: do some interview. Let's take a break here, we'll come
Speaker 1: back give you our best and worst of the weekend.

Speaker 1: you deserve it. Um. But I don't think we're gonna win.
Speaker 1: I know, I don't like feeling that way. I just
Speaker 1: don't think we're gonna win. Who are we up against?
Speaker 1: Pardon the interruption, right? Who else is in there? MLB Tonight?
Speaker 1: How did we lose? MLB Tonight? Outside the Lines gets
Speaker 1: in there a lot, I know, but Bob Lee's not
Speaker 1: there anymore, so that that can only help us, is
Speaker 1: the jump in there with Rachel Nickols. But we do
Speaker 1: three hours every day. They do a little half hour show,
Speaker 1: maybe an hour show, although MLB B Tonight does a
Speaker 1: few more. Yeah, yeah, I asked you guys this once. Before,
Speaker 1: but better or worse the final what the final numbers
Speaker 1: were about where you've finished this far, like second or
Speaker 1: last or in the middle of the pack. But I'd
Speaker 1: I'd be fine if I finished last in the category,
Speaker 1: but I was still nominated every year. Just an honor
Speaker 1: to be not it is it isn't. I would say
Speaker 1: that to my I'd have to remind myself so much
Speaker 1: so that my kids would say, hey, Dad, it's okay.
Speaker 1: It's just an honor to be nominated. Because I'd always
Speaker 1: say that when I would lose. I'd come home late
Speaker 1: at night and then my kids would be up in
Speaker 1: the morning they go, did you did you win? And
Speaker 1: I'd go, no, but it's just an honor to be nominated.
Speaker 1: So then it became a punchline because I'd go to
Speaker 1: the Sports Emmys and then they would say, Dad, as
Speaker 1: just an honor to be nominated. But that's our big
Speaker 1: party tomorrow night, a viewing party where you get to
Speaker 1: view us lose the Sports Emmy. This might be the
Speaker 1: first time that's ever happened, a live show where you
Speaker 1: get to watch losers. Yeah, see than what people have
Speaker 1: been watching for the last ten years. Oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's chat Row who came up
Speaker 1: with it, but somebody tweeted. Because this audience is extremely bright,
Speaker 1: we have a a new submission for Todd. Todd, did
Speaker 1: Section Row seat you know that famous joke that fell
Speaker 1: flat many times? Some people suggested section Row cheat with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: gift that keeps on giving yep, Section Row, the gift
Speaker 1: that keeps Yeah, that's funny, Section Row. I'd be standing
Speaker 1: on Shag with like a cheat sheet with my bad
Speaker 1: jokes that I'm kind of peeking up that I should
Speaker 1: have memorized it. Maybe you should have a cheat sheet
Speaker 1: on stage that would have helped actual jokes in it.
Speaker 1: Tell a prompter a couple of phone calls, then we'll
Speaker 1: give you our best words the weekend. John and Denver
Speaker 1: joins us not to be confused with John Denver. Hi,
Speaker 1: John h. Good morning to the guys. Best and worse
Speaker 1: of the weekend. That's justin Thomas on the fifth hole,
Speaker 1: Birdie dropping a huge F bombs like one of us.
Speaker 1: We've all been there, Yeah and the worst. NHL released
Speaker 1: their playoffs schedule and the Avalanche, unfortunately will not be
Speaker 1: seen by a lot of Colorado residents who due to
Speaker 1: Comcast and Exfinity dispute talks with Altitude Sports Network. No, yeah,
Speaker 1: thanks John. They always get tied up in those local
Speaker 1: TV deals and you know, the blackouts and those kind
Speaker 1: of things. So sorry to hear that. Let's go around
Speaker 1: the room. What we learned? Oh? No, Best and worse
Speaker 1: of the weekend. I'm all over the place today, Todd.
Speaker 1: Best and worst of the week Best of the weekend
Speaker 1: the game Saturday between the Nuggets and Jazz, Jamal Murray
Speaker 1: and Donovan Mitchell take over with Murray's Nuggets outlasting Mitchell
Speaker 1: Jazz and double overtime one thirty one thirty two. One
Speaker 1: of those instant classics. It was great. Worst of the weekend,
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons, don't know if it's an instant classic. That
Speaker 1: was a huge game the way they were. Do you
Speaker 1: realize that nobody responded to your text, But just the
Speaker 1: same if you happen to be watching Dodovan Mitchell, Jamal
Speaker 1: Murray going back and forth, double overtime, fantastic, Todd. If
Speaker 1: if it could be breathless, if a text could be breathless,
Speaker 1: then it would have you would have been I kept
Speaker 1: giving you guys updates, wondering is my phone not working?
Speaker 1: Maybe at my whole circus we had that whole lot.
Speaker 1: Hurry Kane, No, No, my everybody's phone was working. We
Speaker 1: were just going way and at twelve left second, going
Speaker 1: to double. You see that shot by Mitchell. Anybody out
Speaker 1: there Murray just sitting No, and anybody Marie again an
Speaker 1: instant classic. Okay, what else do you have? The worst?
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons needing me surgery, likely done for the season.
Speaker 1: I don't know what that does two of Nick loven
Speaker 1: six ers, if they're better without them, where that drastically
Speaker 1: changes their playoff stock? Yeah, I think they're coaches in jeopardy.
Speaker 1: But I would try to keep Simmons and and be
Speaker 1: together and try to figure it. I mean, these are
Speaker 1: two players that will probably end up being Hall of Famers.
Speaker 1: I would try to hold on onto him and figured
Speaker 1: this out. You know, you have to get better perimeter shooters,
Speaker 1: but uh, I don't know. I try to keep him together. Yeah, mcleven,
Speaker 1: all right, So I'll start with my worst. It's I'm
Speaker 1: blaming major League Baseball. These seven inning doubleheaders are ridiculous
Speaker 1: because the Phillies were just picking up momentum when they
Speaker 1: lost eight nothing in the second end of a double
Speaker 1: header of the Braves and five two with us. If
Speaker 1: we had nine innings, we would have won. Of course
Speaker 1: you would have. Couldn't you hit four homers in a day?
Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. Ah. My best is a guy named Rodney
Speaker 1: McGruder hit a game winner for the Clippers over the Blazers,
Speaker 1: and I had Google. I'm like, wait, whoo, that's not
Speaker 1: a real player. Yeah, Rodney McGruder apparely he's the start
Speaker 1: for the Rockets. Check on that. I know he's kid,
Speaker 1: He's kidding, Come on. And then like every day of
Speaker 1: the bubble, Austin Rivers put up a fortyble. Did his
Speaker 1: dad ever put up forty one in a game? I
Speaker 1: don't think Doc Ever did. But when I Austin Rivers
Speaker 1: putting up forty one, I went, Okay. Mcleven may may
Speaker 1: have something to his theory that everybody puts up big
Speaker 1: numbers in the bubble. TJ. Warren is pushing Michael Jordan
Speaker 1: for the best player of all time. He used the
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan the bubble. Yes, boy, Rodney McGruder. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: out of Kansas State. He was a heat for the
Speaker 1: past three years now, he was in Sioux City between
Speaker 1: the Heat and the Clippers. He's definitely playing for the
Speaker 1: Heat for like seventy games. A little Sioux City action
Speaker 1: set O Connor. Best for worst is the fast actually
Speaker 1: my best. I watched this documentary called Speedcubers. It's about
Speaker 1: competitive Rubik's cubing wholely mall. It is mind blowing. It's
Speaker 1: unreal as someone who's never once in my whole life
Speaker 1: finished a Rubik's cube, some of these dudes could do
Speaker 1: it in four seconds. That's crazy how fast their hands move.
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. Blew my mind. And it's like really competitive.
Speaker 1: Wait four seconds? They can do the whole thing? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: they could do Like though, they do these competitions right
Speaker 1: where the clock will start as soon as he picks
Speaker 1: it up, as soon as he or she the person
Speaker 1: picks it up, and then they'll just like their fingers
Speaker 1: fly like crazy and then they just slow it down. Done,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, okay, seven seconds a new world record. Unbelievable.
Speaker 1: It's it's crazy. Do you have a worst? Uh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: my worst was the Ben Simmons injury, though, that's these
Speaker 1: rubrics cubes. Kids. Can someone in the government ask them
Speaker 1: to put the little thing down and work on something
Speaker 1: that's important for a couple hours, like maybe ask these
Speaker 1: guys to go a tech school. So what they say
Speaker 1: is that these they they actually um memorize sort of
Speaker 1: algorithms within the patterns, and that there's just thousands of
Speaker 1: them and just through all of these hours of practice
Speaker 1: they get used to the patterns and like sort of
Speaker 1: rhythms of how these colors move and then they can
Speaker 1: figure it out, which is I got other things to do.
Speaker 1: If you could be the greatest Rubik's cuber of all time,
Speaker 1: or or me, I'm gonna go me same, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go me all the you know what I was watching
Speaker 1: over the weekend and I got caught. So I was
Speaker 1: on my tablet and I'm watching videos and it was
Speaker 1: fly fishing casting to see how far you can you
Speaker 1: can you know, cast a fly and one guy the
Speaker 1: record is two hundred and forty three feet. I think
Speaker 1: this guy is the world fly fishing whatever. He's won
Speaker 1: it like forty years, Like he's he's the Jordan Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: Bill Russell, the cast Mastor Johnson out of Missoula. Love
Speaker 1: his work. Yeah, was it good? Good TV? Well, there
Speaker 1: is something about being able to use a fly rod
Speaker 1: that there. It's like a metronome. It's there's a rhythm
Speaker 1: to it, and when people do it really well, there's
Speaker 1: just there's something about it. And I've I've been fly fishing.
Speaker 1: I'm in no way a great fly fisherman or even
Speaker 1: a good one. I'm the accidental fly fisherman and I'll
Speaker 1: accidentally catch a fish or two. But now there's something
Speaker 1: about it. It was calming. Yes, I'd love to go
Speaker 1: on a fly fishing trip. I think I've hit that
Speaker 1: age somehow. Yeah, I'm like, oh man, that sounds great
Speaker 1: because you great locations. Yeah, and if you have a
Speaker 1: great guide and it just you know. I did fly
Speaker 1: fishing the world with John Barrett and uh we went
Speaker 1: up to British Columbia. It was as good a vacation
Speaker 1: of We had to have a seaplane. We stayed in
Speaker 1: a this floating hotel dude owned by the Sony the
Speaker 1: CEO of Sony or whatever. He built this beautiful ski
Speaker 1: or this fishing it was a dump. Yeah, and then
Speaker 1: you're there. I mean it was. It was spectacular, the setting,
Speaker 1: the scenery spectacular. That sounds great. Yeah, it was beautiful, Paul,
Speaker 1: did you give your best best of the weekend? Colin
Speaker 1: Morecama Right after his round yesterday, he's in the lead
Speaker 1: to the PGA and he's sitting there with his girlfriend
Speaker 1: on like a stone bench in front of a fountain,
Speaker 1: and there's no one around, and he's waiting for Dennis
Speaker 1: Dustin Johnson to wrap it up. It was just the
Speaker 1: weirdest way to win a major. He's sitting all by
Speaker 1: himself and they're playing on their phones waiting for the
Speaker 1: other guy to wrap up the other I would say
Speaker 1: worst the weekend. I'm not weirdest. Bryson d Shambou. He
Speaker 1: is a big, bloated like he's a very gym teacher
Speaker 1: looking Dan. This is gonna be I don't think it's
Speaker 1: gonna be good for him in his back long term.
Speaker 1: Has it ever been? No? I remember when Tiger was swinging,
Speaker 1: people said, can that his body with? You know, hold up?
Speaker 1: It's really entertaining and making him a big name. But
Speaker 1: he is, he's gigantic. Yeah, but then you have guys
Speaker 1: who are sixty pounds less than him that hit it
Speaker 1: almost as far as he does. This Cameron Champ, he
Speaker 1: hits it as long as anybody. So maybe the visual
Speaker 1: is making me think that he's doing more work on
Speaker 1: his back. Oh, I think just carrying that weight and
Speaker 1: swinging as hard as you possibly can. Like, I just
Speaker 1: think at one point a body part, like an arm
Speaker 1: is going to fall off. It'll go down the fairway. Yeah. See,
Speaker 1: did you see there's a hole in one yesterday? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's pretty awesome. I don't know how often that happens
Speaker 1: in a major, certainly in a major, but that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1: But no, there's no fans there to react. You just
Speaker 1: hear one guy going, oh yeah, I did it all right.
Speaker 1: Last call for phone calls? What we learned? What's in store?
Speaker 1: To Colin Marikawa. We'll join us on the program tomorrow.

Speaker 1: still I laugh out loud when I read this, and
Speaker 1: I've read it a couple of times this morning. The
Speaker 1: Mets starting lineup on Sports New York s n Y
Speaker 1: on Friday night, prior to the game of the Miami Marlins,
Speaker 1: was sponsored by a New York area party planning company
Speaker 1: called Sending the Clowns. So just imagine when you know
Speaker 1: how he rose, the announcer's gone, and Tonight's New York
Speaker 1: Mets starting lineup brought to you by Sending the Clowns.
Speaker 1: I don't know why that makes me laugh every time.
Speaker 1: Send in the Clowns, Yes, indeed, And who's sponsoring the lineup?
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, it's Sending the Clowns, the New York
Speaker 1: Area parting planning company. Clowns creep me out, By the way,
Speaker 1: I'm not a big clowns fan, never was. Did you
Speaker 1: ever go to the circus of the Child? Yeah? I
Speaker 1: never cry a little, Dan, I don't know I might have,
Speaker 1: and just I never trusted those clowns. Speaking of which, yes, mclau,
Speaker 1: did you ever try and watch the movie it with
Speaker 1: the killer clown. I watched for about seven minutes and
Speaker 1: I said, now I'm done. Yeah, I'm good, I'm done.
Speaker 1: I don't need to watch anymore. I see the movie Poltergeist. Yeah,
Speaker 1: do you remember there was a big clown scene with
Speaker 1: the doll came to life and pulled the kid under
Speaker 1: the bed and he got into a big brawl in
Speaker 1: the room. There. Let's go ruh, Let's see a few
Speaker 1: more phone calls here. I don't know, I don't know
Speaker 1: what to I'm gonna say. I know I appreciate it.
Speaker 1: I must have freaked you out, I guess was my
Speaker 1: point when the when the clown came to life in Poulter,
Speaker 1: But that's a toy clown in Poulter, guys, these are
Speaker 1: real clowns. But that's even scarier. Toy comes to life
Speaker 1: in his facial expression. Jathan in Alaska joint is hey,
Speaker 1: Nathan's gone, Danny, how you doing? And it's actually Nathan.
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't blame Marvin, It's like Jason with
Speaker 1: an end a little different. Um. So I actually had
Speaker 1: a question for episode that's all right, would you okay? Nathan?
Speaker 1: So the question I had would be obviously you guys
Speaker 1: aren't going older tomorrow. Let's just say hypothetically, yeah, Aftbus
Speaker 1: did lose last week. You were talking about betting on
Speaker 1: the field. Would you take the reason why you guys lose?
Speaker 1: Would you say it's because of Fritzy or would you
Speaker 1: take the field though? Um, I don't want to put
Speaker 1: any blame on anybody if we don't wind, I mean
Speaker 1: I will, Wow, how do we go from Tiger in
Speaker 1: the field and I don't. I don't want to, but
Speaker 1: I will, but blame yeah, make it more positive? Who
Speaker 1: would be least responsible for us if we won? You know,
Speaker 1: you spin it positive? Yeah. I don't even want to
Speaker 1: do that either. I look at just an honor to
Speaker 1: be nominated. But you can watch us lose tomorrow night
Speaker 1: if if you watch on YouTube dot com slash the
Speaker 1: Dan Patrick Show at eight eastern ish. That's when the
Speaker 1: red carpet ceremony, catered food, champagne is not to be
Speaker 1: touched until the announcement because we're either drinking or we're
Speaker 1: pouring it on one another. We win or we lose.
Speaker 1: Let me see what else do we have here? Oakley
Speaker 1: in South Dakota, by the way, was his name. Nason.
Speaker 1: I think it was Nason like Jason, oh and Marvin
Speaker 1: had Nathan on there. Okay, Oakley, Hey, DP six best
Speaker 1: and worst of the weekend for you. My wife gave
Speaker 1: birth to a baby boy seven ounces two five inches
Speaker 1: and what's his name? Well, that's the worst of the weekend.
Speaker 1: They're trying to kick us out of the hospital here
Speaker 1: in ten minutes and we still haven't named it. We've
Speaker 1: got it narrowed down to two choices, one being Track
Speaker 1: t R A K. And I'm lobbying for Rush. Are
Speaker 1: you h Rush? One of the input from any winners
Speaker 1: to tell me what direction we should know? What's what's
Speaker 1: your last name? Haynes h A I N E. S. Haynes, Rush,
Speaker 1: Haynes M. Guys want to offer a suggestion to Oakley
Speaker 1: for Haynes Rush or Track track Haynes. You know what, Oh,
Speaker 1: I've been in the situation before where we didn't have
Speaker 1: a name from my daughter and we just threw a
Speaker 1: name on her and then we left the building and
Speaker 1: then we eventually we had to change her name six
Speaker 1: weeks later. So I my daughter was we thought she
Speaker 1: was going to be a boy, and then we didn't
Speaker 1: have a girl's name, and so we just we threw
Speaker 1: Emily on her and then changed it to Georgia. Like
Speaker 1: six weeks later, I had to go down to the courthouse.
Speaker 1: So good luck with that. But uh in congratulations on
Speaker 1: the baby. Yeah, they won't let you leave until you
Speaker 1: name the baby. And I said, my wife goes. I.
Speaker 1: We don't have any girl's name. I said, just give
Speaker 1: her name, let's go. I would lean towards rush Hanes.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Rush Hanes there. Uh Luke and Alabama,
Speaker 1: Hey Luke, they deepek Hey. But yeah, I appreciate you
Speaker 1: taking a call and look forward to watching y'all win
Speaker 1: or someone else win. You don't lose, it's just someone
Speaker 1: else win. Thank you, Luke. I have a best and
Speaker 1: a question. My best is Tyson. The interview last week
Speaker 1: peaked my interests, so I watched Shark week and now
Speaker 1: I have a new found respect for mclovin for standing
Speaker 1: on a beach watching a Great White and it's so brave.
Speaker 1: I just it's really impressive. He is something else. My
Speaker 1: question is, though, if if you could have a cheating
Speaker 1: scandal with Todd where he rigged the Emmys, but you
Speaker 1: didn't find out about it for twenty five years, like
Speaker 1: his school cheating. Would you take that win? Yeah? Absolutely, yeah,
Speaker 1: but I would do it for the kids. I do
Speaker 1: it for those guys. I mean, I keep the trophy,
Speaker 1: but Todd couldn't keep a secret for twenty five You
Speaker 1: never happened. But thank you Luke and mccleven. Shark Week.
Speaker 1: People are really recognizing your brand. It's on point here.
Speaker 1: I watched Mike Tyson last night. He went down in
Speaker 1: a cage with sharks. He almost tapped out. He is
Speaker 1: a brave man. He looks so terrified. I'm never ever
Speaker 1: doing that, getting in a cage with sharks and that
Speaker 1: and his fight just got postponed until like November or something.
Speaker 1: Is that what it is? Oh no, they taught me
Speaker 1: late November. Could be twenty twenty one or something. It's
Speaker 1: hard to put the boxing gloves on the fin of
Speaker 1: the shop. We have to find what did you learn today, Todd?
Speaker 1: The Marlins edited an Olympic speed skater from Sochi infielder
Speaker 1: Eddie Alvarez getting out there. Mclovin, it's just an honor
Speaker 1: to be nominated. Yes, it is Seaton O'Connor junior, the
Speaker 1: third honor to be nominated. Yeah, Paul, it's so gonna
Speaker 1: be a weird twenty four hours for college foot Yes,
Speaker 1: it is Todd Wood, and I learned the Mets starting
Speaker 1: lineup Friday nights sponsored by a party play it could
