DP Show email address 7 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 2: Dpadanpatrick dot com, Twitter handle the DP Show. 8 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 3: Good morning. 9 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 2: If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for allowing us 10 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 2: into your homes or wherever you're watching this program or 11 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: are radio affiliates around the country. Steelers have a press 12 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 2: conference in about an hour from now. I'm not sure 13 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: if they'll take questions from members of the media. I 14 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 2: hope they do. But the one thing about the Mike 15 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,480 Speaker 2: Tomlin situation is it feels like nobody is factoring him 16 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: in to coach again. Now you do have to factor 17 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 2: in if he does coach, that team has to compensate 18 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: the Steelers because Mike Tomlin has two years left on 19 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: his contract. But it feels like a foregone conclusion that 20 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin is not going to be coaching next season. 21 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: There have been TV Networks shows that have already reached 22 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: out to Mike or his agent, one that I know of. 23 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 2: I'm guessing Fox will be reaching out or already has 24 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: with Jay Glazer. Jay Glazer a good friend of Mike Tomlin's. 25 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 2: If I'm NBC, I'd hire Mike Tomlin for the playoffs. 26 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: They have the super Bowl this year. Let's see what 27 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: he does in a big stage. Put him in there, 28 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 2: See how he does, See how he gets along with 29 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 2: everybody else. Chemistry there. If I'm CBS, I have him 30 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: in the studio this weekend, I put him in there. 31 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 2: Matt Ryan's not there, put him in there. You got 32 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 2: Bill Kauer in there. I think that could be fun. 33 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 2: You get the first interview with Tomlin, but then you 34 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: also get him breaking down these games. All right, Pole, 35 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: question for the final hour of the program. By the way, 36 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 2: stat of the Day is always brought to you by 37 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 2: Panini America, the official trading cards of the program. 38 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 4: All right, Seedon that tomlind thing you're just talking about. 39 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 4: When nobody has him coaching, it feels a little we 40 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 4: It's pretty early. But you ever know somebody that is 41 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 4: like married for a long time and gets divorced and 42 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 4: then gets married again right away? What did you do 43 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 4: that for? Yeah, that's what it feels like with Tomlin. 44 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 4: He's been in a very long term relationship. Why are 45 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 4: you going to jump right into another one? Maybe maybe 46 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 4: take a year, take a beat. 47 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, palling. 48 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 5: But I still don't think he wanted to leave the 49 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh Steelers. I won't believe that. I think he read 50 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 5: the room and read the surroundings and chose to do 51 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 5: whatever the classy thing. But like a team like the 52 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 5: New York Jets, if they wanted to hire Tomlin, I 53 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 5: don't know if he would go there. They have tons 54 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 5: of draft capital, they got tons of draft picks. 55 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, I get the compensation. The problem is 56 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 2: you're still coaching the Jets. 57 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 5: But he is a guy I don't believe wanted to 58 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 5: stop coaching until I hear different. 59 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: I think he needed to. I think he needed to refresh. 60 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 2: It's nineteen years. That's an eternity in the coaching circles. 61 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 2: I mean even Harbaugh John didn't want to leave the Ravens, 62 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: but probably deep down new that he should leave the Ravens. 63 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, seton. 64 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've said it a couple of times, but sometimes 65 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 4: things just run their course. 66 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 3: He was there for a long time, you know, and. 67 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 4: Sometimes it's like, man, it's not really it's not that 68 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 4: things are going wrong, it's just maybe we need to 69 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 4: freshen things up a bit. And I don't know does 70 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin want to coach the Steelers or does he 71 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 4: just want to coach? So if he just wants to 72 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 4: coach the Steelers, going to the Jets isn't going to 73 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,119 Speaker 4: scratch that itch. 74 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: I don't think there's a team right now that unless 75 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: he went to the Ravens. But that's not going to happen. 76 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 2: What other opening do you go? Okay, that's where Mike 77 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: Tomlin wants to go. That's a that's a better situation. 78 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: Now you can say, Okay, Atlanta. You know he's not 79 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: going to Tennessee the Giants. I just these these coaches, 80 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 2: they have to win. It's not yeah, I got another 81 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: job for five years. It's Mike Tomlin. Okay, we're going 82 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: to have a winning record, right Mike? And are we 83 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: going to win playoff games? Yes? 84 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: Seton in a weird way. 85 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin could be the perfect coach for the Ravens 86 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 4: because he's a defensive minded head coach. So let me 87 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 4: shure up a terrible defense that is really the reason 88 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 4: why they lost so many games this year, Lamar Jackson's put. 89 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 3: Up forty points and you lose forty one to forty. 90 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 3: That's terrible. 91 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 4: So Mike Tomlin can focus on getting the defense right 92 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 4: and then say, Lamar, who's the coordinators you like? And 93 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 4: bring in a guy that Lamar Jackson is like, this 94 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 4: is the guy that I want to play for. This 95 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 4: is the offense I want to run. In a weird way, 96 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 4: it could be a perfect fit. 97 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 2: And nobody, though, is saying, oh, you know, who's the 98 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 2: leading candidate or who should be the leading candidate for 99 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: that job? Mike Tomlin. I haven't seen it yet. I 100 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: haven't heard anything yet. It just feels like, all right, 101 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: where does Mike Tomlin want to work in television next year? 102 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 2: Nothing about Hey, he's interested in Atlanta or the Dolphins, 103 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: the Raiders, you know, throw out these teams, the Browns. 104 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, heton he. 105 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 4: Should get a job on a local Pittsburgh affiliate and 106 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 4: just critique every game next year. For that, He's like, yeah, 107 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 4: I'm going to go into the media. I'm going to 108 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 4: be at you know, kat Katika, and I'm just going 109 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 4: to rip the Steelers every day. 110 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 3: This is terrible. What kind of game plan is that's awful. 111 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, pol I still don't believe it was that he 112 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 5: wanted to quit the Steelers. And I think, let's say 113 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 5: that game the other night, they were a down one 114 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 5: with thirteen minutes to go. Let's say somehow they steal 115 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 5: that game and go to the second round of the 116 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 5: playoffs then get knocked out. Do you guys think he 117 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 5: would have stepped down because I would assume this plan 118 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 5: has been in his head for months and he didn't 119 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 5: make it in a twenty four. 120 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: Hour Well, the Ravens were moving on from John Harball 121 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 2: even if they made the playoffs. 122 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 5: Which means I don't think it was Mike Tomlin's choice 123 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 5: in any way. I think he did the. 124 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 3: How does it matter. He's not coaching anymore. 125 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 5: It matters because I think the people think the Pittsburgh 126 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 5: Steelers just did nothing and Mike Tomlin stepped away voluntarily. 127 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 3: I don't believe that's a case. Okay, so what if 128 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 3: they fired him. I'd love to know that, But what 129 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 3: is it matter? Because it's a very interesting story. I'd 130 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 3: love to know that. 131 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: No, No, it's only interesting because you want to know if 132 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 2: he got fired or not. But what does it matter? 133 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 2: He left the Steelers. He's not coaching the Steelers. 134 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 5: I think his coaching future would depend would really matter 135 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 5: that he wanted to still coach, whether be the Steelers 136 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 5: or other, and that would factor in his decision going 137 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 5: forward to go to media or up. 138 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's you don't hear his name about any 139 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: coaching circles. So let's say he got fired, you want 140 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 2: to coach again, You can't coach, can't coach anywhere. You 141 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: haven't heard him say or anybody say that he's going 142 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: to coach someplace. Maybe they came to that understanding, but 143 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 2: they didn't. The Ravens had no problem saying they fired 144 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 2: John Harbaugh. No problem. Now the Steelers may say, look, 145 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 2: we want you owe it to you, Mike. We want 146 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: you to go out with your head held high. We're 147 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 2: not going to say we fired you. But do I 148 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 2: think Mike Tomlin with two years left, it feels like 149 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: somebody who's burnt out. That's the sense that I got 150 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: from this. Not you know, are the Steelers trying to 151 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 2: protect him and say, hey, look we got to move 152 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 2: on from you. We're gonna let you say you're stepping down. 153 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 2: If that's the case, and you think they fired him. 154 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 2: That's not a guy who then runs into TV. That's 155 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 2: a guy who coaches. And if you fire him now, 156 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: you don't know the Steelers any compensation. So I mean, 157 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: I think we're getting caught up on semantics that it 158 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,559 Speaker 2: doesn't matter in the bigger picture. They need a coach 159 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: and Mike Tomlin has not been mentioned for a coaching vacancy. 160 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 6: Yes. 161 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know that any of us necessarily or 162 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 4: disputing or disagree with the idea that he was actually fired, 163 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 4: but they let him say face. I just don't think 164 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 4: that he just wants to coach Jarren. I think he 165 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 4: probably wanted to coach the Steelers, but now because he's 166 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 4: not coaching the Steelers anymore, he's just going to jump 167 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 4: right into the next job. 168 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: I don't think that's the case. 169 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 4: I think maybe he takes a year and then he'll 170 00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 4: probably have teams calling him again. 171 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: After that, Oh, he's going to have any job that 172 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: he wants. That just when does he want it? I mean, 173 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 2: how many jobs are safe when you look at the 174 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: entire NFL, that they're safe that if Mike Tomlin said 175 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: I'm interested in coaching the Packers, I would say Andy 176 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 2: Reid is certainly safe in Kansas City, Jim Harball with 177 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: the Chargers. But if you start to look at some 178 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: of these other you know, Ben Jhonson just got there, 179 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 2: Mike McDonald in Seattle. I mean, there's certain situations here safe. 180 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 2: Rabel is safe. He just got there. But Rabel wasn't 181 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 2: safe a couple of years ago in Tennessee. 182 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 4: Which is one of the dumbest decisions still in recent memory. 183 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 2: I mean, but it feels like if Mike Tomlin wanted 184 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: to coach a team, then he could. If you're Green Bay, 185 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin said, Hey, I'm interested in coaching Green Bay. 186 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 2: Are they going to keep Matt Lafleur. I don't know, 187 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 2: but it feels like Mike will have his pick of jobs, 188 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 2: whether it's next year, the year after that, the year 189 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: after that. 190 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 7: Yes, Marph, what if the Bills wash out this weekend? 191 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: Well, once again, I still feel like there's a team 192 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: that is still in the playoffs who might not have 193 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 2: the most secure position at head coach, just given everything 194 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 2: that's transpired here. I mean, Stefanski, two time Coach of 195 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: the Year. Then you got Harball, then you got Tomlin. 196 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: I can't remember an off season we're not even in 197 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 2: the off season yet, and you had these kind of 198 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 2: options available to you. 199 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 3: Remarkable. 200 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: But the Steelers will hold their press conference coming up 201 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 2: in an hour from now. A couple of phone calls 202 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: in here Bob and Seattle.

See that's 216 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 2: the part of it where I side with PAULI that 217 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: man you're walking away from. They reported fifty million dollars 218 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 2: over the next two years. I don't think he's making 219 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 2: that kind of money in the I mean, he'll make 220 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 2: a lot of money in the media. If Brady's making 221 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 2: what he's making at thirty seven and a half, Mike 222 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 2: Tomlin might be a twenty million dollar a year guy. 223 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: If you're paying Romo eighteen million or Troy Aikman million 224 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 2: or Collins, Mike Tomlin's walking into a pretty healthy paycheck there. 225 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: Uh. 226 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 2: Steven Pennsylvania, Good morning, Steve.

I think 231 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 8: I have the obvious perfect landing spot for Mike Tomlin. 232 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 8: I see him here. It is introducing Mike Tomlin, the 233 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 8: host of the Dan Patrick two point zero Show. 234 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: I hope he's striving for something better than that, but 235 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 2: thank you Steve. Bob and Seattle mentioned. I'm going to 236 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: be on a show, The Men's Room in Seattle, very 237 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 2: popular show and I think number one radio program in Seattle. 238 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 2: I'll be on that tomorrow. Actually we taped it yesterday. 239 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 2: I had a lot of fun with those guys. Let's 240 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 2: see Russell in Philadelphia. Hi, Russ, what's on your mind today? 241 00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 11: Hey? 242 00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 13: What's second? 243 00:11:59,720 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 14: Tom? 244 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 13: Long time? My thoughts on Toime Whin I think you 245 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 13: should chill and take a year off getting thoughts some 246 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 13: things situated like Peyton did maybe do some TV for 247 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 13: a little bit, and then you know, Cherry pick a 248 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 13: team to go coach next year. 249 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: He's going to have options, but it feels like, let's 250 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: let's get into it now. Get a hold of this job. 251 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: You know, you get in and you get a hold 252 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: of these jobs. You don't want to let go of 253 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 2: these jobs because there's always going to be another coach 254 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 2: and or another player and they're going to be available. Uh, 255 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 2: Dane in Texas? Hi, Dane, what's on your mind today? 256 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 11: Hey? Good morning, Dan. I had two things, one on 257 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 11: Marcus Freeman and one on yesterday's point about NBA MVPs. Okay, 258 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 11: First with Marcus Freeman, for all the points you mentioned earlier, 259 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 11: I think that makes him a great candidate. Plus one 260 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 11: you forgot is just how crazy it is to be 261 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 11: a college football coach. I mean, the immaturity levels of 262 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 11: these kids at NIL. If he moved to Pittsburgh, at 263 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 11: least you'd have salary caps and contracts. Yeah. Yes, and no, 264 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,479 Speaker 11: the NBA and MVPs. I'm gonna give you two hints. 265 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 11: The seventy six seventy seven season, he wasn't an MVP, 266 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 11: but he should have been an MVP for his team. 267 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 11: Now I think he'll get it on this clue. Bill 268 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 11: Walton called him the best teammate he. 269 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 3: Ever had Maurice Lucas. 270 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 11: Yes, because Walt was so great. One reason was because 271 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 11: Maurice Lucas protected him. I mean he was an enforcer. 272 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 11: If you messed with Lalton Hearts album, you'd have to 273 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 11: deal with Maurice. And remember Game two in the Spectrum 274 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 11: when he took. 275 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 3: On Darryl Dawkins. 276 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Darryl Dawkins was never the same, never the 277 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 2: same after Maurice Lucas went after him, and you did 278 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 2: not want to mess with Maurice Lucas, like when you 279 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: put the power the power forward, Maurice Lucas. Pete and Jacksonville. 280 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 2: Hi Pete, what's on your mind today? 281 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 13: Hey? 282 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 14: Dan, just ironed to talk to you. 283 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 15: Man. 284 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 14: Oh my god, I'm so excited.

I don't remember 292 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 2: meeting you in Jacksonville. Come on, yeah yeah, I. 293 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 5: Mean it was the guy with the eyes and the hair. 294 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 3: I've met a lot of people. 295 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 7: Come on, Pete, you know Pete? 296 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, man. 297 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: That's when I needed security because that that was Jacksonville. 298 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: In Jacksonville, the Eagles and the Patriots. And that's when 299 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: I had fred X Freddie Mitchell on and he didn't 300 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: know the names of the defensive backs for the Patriots. 301 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 2: But you know, in fairness to fred X, a lot 302 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 2: of players, current players, they'll talk about numbers, you know, 303 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: they'll say, oh, you know thirty two, you got twenty eight. 304 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 2: And so he was talking about the Patriots secondary. We 305 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 2: had him on Sports Center. He was still in the 306 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 2: early Sports Center, and he started talking about the numbers, 307 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 2: and I said, wait a minute, do you know the 308 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 2: names of the defensive backs for the Patriots. They didn't, 309 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 2: And so this was live TV and it just looked like, 310 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know who these bums are the Patriots, 311 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 2: even though you had like Lawyer Malloy and Rodney Harrison, 312 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 2: you had great defensive backs. And I remember the fallout 313 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 2: from that the next day in the Eagle fans who 314 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: were in Jacksonville, and they were mad at me, and 315 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: I remember having to have security to and from the 316 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 2: Sports Center set the rest of that week. But all 317 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: that was was he just said their numbers, and I 318 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 2: realized that he didn't know their names, and it came 319 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 2: off as it doesn't matter who's in the secondary, nobody's 320 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: going to be able to stop me. All right, take 321 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 2: a break. More phone calls coming up. Also, Lebron's agent 322 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: says some things that Lebron didn't like. We'll have that 323 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 2: for you coming out.

Notable alumni Jim Tony, Joe Girardi, Ben Zoberson, 371 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 16: many more. Mike tomlin sneaky landing spot for him, in 372 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 16: my opinion, the Raiders. They got a young core. Get 373 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 16: Mendoza with that number one pick. Let Brady mentor him 374 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 16: and just throw all your money into both lines. Mendoza 375 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 16: is the kind of guy that will buy into any 376 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 16: kind of culture that Mike Tomlin wants to establish, and 377 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 16: I think, you know, he could have a potentially good 378 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 16: future here with him in a couple of years. 379 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 7: What are your thoughts on that. 380 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 3: All right, thank you, Nick. 381 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin would be going from one of the most 382 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 2: stable ownerships to the Raiders. That would concern me. Even 383 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: if Tom Brady is there, you get Mendoza, Ashton gent 384 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 2: brought Bauers. Is Max Crosby going to be there? I 385 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: just don't see him coaching. I don't know if he's 386 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 2: you know, hey, I'm leaving the Steelers now. I want 387 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 2: to coach. I want to prove that I can coach 388 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: someplace else. I just don't see that. Just feels like 389 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: he's going to be in TV for a little while 390 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 2: and then he'll have his pick. He might the Raiders 391 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 2: job be opening in two years. It might be, Hey, 392 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 2: you know now, I could take over that job. The 393 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: Lakers are twenty three and fourteen. Maybe they're maybe twenty 394 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 2: four and fourteen. They blew out the Hawks, didn't they. 395 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 2: Rich Paul the founder of Clutch Sports and partnership with Lebron. 396 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 2: He launched a new podcast with former ESPN personality Max Kellerman. 397 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: On Monday's episode, Rich Paul said that he would trade 398 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves to Memphis for Jaren Jackson Junior, the third 399 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 2: if he were in charge of the Lakers. He said, 400 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: if I was with the Lakers, I'd be targeting their 401 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: big man. He was then asked by Max what Los 402 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 2: Angeles would have to give up to get the defensive 403 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: player of the year. He would offer expiring contracts in 404 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 2: addition to the last first round picks. They can offer 405 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 2: twenty thirty one or twenty thirty two, or they could 406 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 2: trade Austin Reeves. Well, I mean, he's got an opinion 407 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: on what he would do if he was running the Lakers. 408 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 2: The problem is that it doesn't take long to connect 409 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 2: the dots of does Lebron want this? His agent is 410 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 2: talking about this, and now if you're covering the Lakers, 411 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 2: what are you doing? 412 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: You're gonna say, Hey, Lebron. 413 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 2: Rich Paul said that you should trade Austin Reeves to 414 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 2: get Jared Jackson. What do you think? Do you agree? 415 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:39,959 Speaker 2: I don't know if I need my agent to have 416 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 2: a podcast, but rich Paul went on to say believes 417 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves would thrive in Memphis and the Grizzlies would 418 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 2: pay him what he deserves. 419 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 3: He wrapped up the. 420 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: Argument by stating the building blocks of a contender would 421 00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 2: be there with Doncic and Jaren Jackson Junior the third. Oh, 422 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 2: I like them getting Jaron Jackson Junior. 423 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 3: I do. 424 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: I think he's a really good player. But Austin Reeves 425 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 2: is still on the Lakers, and if you're covering the Lakers, 426 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 2: you're certainly asking Lebron what his take is. H Okay, yeah, 427 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 2: now they got to maybe do something. I was I 428 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: was watching JJ Reddick at a press conference, and he 429 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 2: looks miserable. It's just there's such a bad defensive team 430 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 2: and it just drives him crazy. 431 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 3: You can he doesn't. 432 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 2: He's never hid his emotions like it's there, and uh, 433 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 2: he's just kind of rattling off stats and he just 434 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 2: it just seems. 435 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 3: Like, God, we're terrible. You know, we should be this, 436 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: we should be that. 437 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: Well, when your best player doesn't play defense, no, Now, 438 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 2: granted Luca doesn't maybe have to play a lot of defense, 439 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 2: but it would be nice if he played a little 440 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 2: bit of defense. 441 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 3: Yes, Marv. 442 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 7: But two things. 443 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,239 Speaker 17: First, he can't play defense even if he tried. He 444 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 17: doesn't just have he just doesn't have the footspeed. He 445 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 17: just can't play defense at the NBA level. So let's 446 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 17: not do that. But also, if you're a Lakers fan 447 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 17: is like, oh my gosh, more drama that we don't need. 448 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 17: Rich Walk Lebron, your agent has a podcast and he's 449 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 17: talking about trading our second to third best player. Yeah, 450 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,239 Speaker 17: this just adds on and we're trying to compete for 451 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:34,360 Speaker 17: I guess a championship. 452 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 2: And then I saw where Anthony Davis the NBA's version 453 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 2: of a Carfax. He's injured again and gonna miss I 454 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: don't know how many weeks, but they're eventually going to trade. 455 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 2: They'll find somebody who'll go. 456 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 3: You know what, we need Anthony Davis. 457 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 2: Somebody should do the Game of Operation where it's just 458 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: Anthony Davis with all the injuries and then you you 459 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: pick out like a bone out of it and then 460 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 2: where it'll buzz if you touched the side, if you're 461 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 2: old enough to remember the Game of Operation. Anthony Davis, 462 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 2: he's had injuries. I didn't know where possible I get. 463 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 2: It feels like it's thirty injuries that he's had, or 464 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 2: you know, conditions or something that he's had in his career. 465 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, Paulie, the past. 466 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 5: Eight years, Anthony Davis has played more than sixty five 467 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 5: games once. 468 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, Ton does he come out with some kind 469 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 3: of street closed collection. 470 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 7: You know, everyone has their own line. Maybe it's something 471 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 7: to look at or make a few bucks off not playing. 472 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 2: But when you bring you know, you look at a 473 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 2: car and you want to see the car fax, Like 474 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 2: that's that's what I want to see. How many collisions 475 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 2: have you been in? Fender benders? Anthony Davis. I can't 476 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 2: imagine somebody who's been injured as often as Anthony Davis 477 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 2: in the history of the NBA. Like there's guys who 478 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 2: play through things. It doesn't feel like Anthony Davis plays 479 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 2: through anything. It's like, oh what, I don't know. 480 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 17: Yes, marm he's got a constant grimace on his face 481 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 17: no matter what he's putting up forty to twenty something's 482 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 17: always hurting. 483 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 2: The team has a grimace on their face too, because 484 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 2: they're paying him to not do anything. 485 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 7: And they traded Luca Doncherton. 486 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: I know, well, because you win with defense, you got 487 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 2: to be out there to play, you do, yes, the 488 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 2: best ability is availability. You got to be out there 489 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 2: to be able to play.

Now, all of 497 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 2: a sudden, you go out on the floor. You got 498 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 2: to be the guy.

Lawrence Frank out there, 522 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 2: Steve Balmer, Yes, Tom. 523 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 13: Mark Jackson doing up with the Clippers to warrant something 524 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 13: to stretch a little bit. 525 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 2: But they haven't retired a jersey. But you got that 526 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 2: new arena maybe that you want to wait until until 527 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 2: what cool? 528 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 3: Why Kawhi retires? 529 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 2: He's kind of been retired, yeah, but he you know 530 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 2: when he shows you those flashes where you go, what if? 531 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 3: What if? 532 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 2: And that's gonna be his career what he did and 533 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 2: then and he started out, you know that's a Hall 534 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 2: of Fame trajectory, winning titles and then going to Toronto 535 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, it was like the 536 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 2: artist formerly known as Kawhi Leonard and he'll be a 537 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer, but just what he could have been. 538 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, Pauline, I'm looking at Kawhi's game log, like you said, 539 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 5: when he plays it's fantastic.

Yeah, 541 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,719 Speaker 5: last month he had a game of fifty five and eleven. 542 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 7: Yeah. 543 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 5: I mean if you just looked at it blindly and 544 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 5: you look at his stats like, oh, he's a very 545 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 5: good player. 546 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 2: But it's almost as if, yeah, he put up fifty 547 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 2: five and he's gonna have to take a couple of 548 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 2: days off, a couple of games off. But when he 549 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 2: comes back, let's see Trip in Vegas, Hi, Trip, welcome back. 550 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 3: What do you have for me? 551 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 13: Hey, good morning? 552 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 16: Then thanks for taking my call. 553 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 6: I got a show question, then a tom One comment 554 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 6: at what point. 555 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 10: Yesterday after the third hour and this morning did you 556 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 10: hire PAULI back? 557 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 3: Paulie came back. 558 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: He sat out the last hour, he was not feeling well, 559 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 2: and we send him home seat and said, you know, 560 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 2: did I fire paul yesterday? 561 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,239 Speaker 3: I just thought it was inappropriate that you fired him 562 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 3: mid show. 563 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 4: I felt bad, and then I was trying to stay 564 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 4: paul in your honor.

He's still alive. Yeah, 571 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 2: he did show up. You know, it's like, who is it? 572 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 2: Josh Allen took a snap in the last game of 573 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 2: the regular season to keep his consecutive game street was 574 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 2: that right? 575 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? Lee in Florida? Hi Lee? What's on your mind? 576 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 14: Hey? 577 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 9: DP, How you doing good? 578 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 11: Sir? 579 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 9: Last comment just on Mike Tomlin, and I totally agree 580 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,239 Speaker 9: with you on you know he's gonna sit out, But 581 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 9: also don't you think, I mean, after ten years of 582 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 9: all those quarterbacks in that rotation, he's gonna wait to 583 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 9: have one of the best quarterback offensive quarterbacks in the 584 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 9: league before he takes another job. And I'll listen off there. 585 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 11: Thanks. 586 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, chances are you don't get too many openings 587 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 2: when you have a real good quarterback, unless it would 588 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 2: be Buffalo Johnny and Pittsburgh. Hi Johnny, what's on your mind? 589 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 16: Hey, gents, A six 'y three, a Husky two sixty. 590 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 10: Husky. 591 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 13: Three quick things. 592 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 6: I feel like I'm already exhausted from all this, but 593 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 6: a couple quick things. The draft is I believe in 594 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 6: less than one hundred days, whoever takes a gig on 595 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 6: top of job security has the draft forthcoming with a 596 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 6: lot of stack picks number one, number two. There's a 597 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 6: lot of comparisons here, I believe to the Sean Payton situation. 598 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 6: And the difference between resignation and getting terminated is that 599 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 6: even if he takes a year off and he comes back, 600 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 6: I think there's a good faith agreement he doesn't go 601 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 6: to a competitor, But if he does, there is they 602 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 6: are old compensation. I believe that is the case with Tomlin. 603 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 2: For the next two years they're open there, they get compensation. 604 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 2: After that then he's a free agent. But the next 605 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 2: two years, if he takes another job, I don't know 606 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 2: if there's any Hey, if you don't go to a competitor, 607 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: everybody's a competitor. I mean, maybe not a direct competitor 608 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 2: like Cleveland. If you would have said at the beginning 609 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 2: of the year, three coaches in the AFC North are 610 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 2: going to get fired or they will step down. You 611 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 2: would have started in Cincinnati, I'm guessing Zach Taylor and 612 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 2: Kevin Stefanski, and then you would have probably said, wait 613 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 2: a minute, are you telling me that John Harball or 614 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlan won't be coaching their team next year? And 615 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: then it turns out Cincinnati keeps their head coach, uh 616 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 2: Jerman or Hermann. 617 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 3: In Florida, here you go, jermand perfect. 618 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 15: Hey Dan first time longtime five to nine stout two 619 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 15: twenty south fire firefighter stout, diehard Steelers fan listen. I 620 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 15: still remember exactly where I was when Mike tom was 621 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 15: named head coach, and I'll be honest, I was pretty 622 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 15: devastated at first because the Post Gazette had leaked Rush Grim. 623 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 11: Was our guy. 624 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Dealers nation. 625 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 14: Was fired up. 626 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 15: We couldn't wait an awesome career. I mean, the guy 627 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 15: was just a solid especially Cower stamp of approval. Then 628 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 15: news breaks some young guy absolutely floored the Ruinies in 629 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 15: his interview nineteen years later, I couldn't be more grateful. 630 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 15: Mike Tomin's an outstanding individual, true leader of men, and 631 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 15: we are better fans for having coached the Steelers for 632 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 15: nearly two decades. 633 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 3: I agree. 634 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 2: I mean, these coaches don't come very often. They're not available. 635 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 2: He did a great job there. Did he underachieve at times? 636 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 3: Yes? Did he overachieve at times? Yes he did. Do 637 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 3: you go back to, you know, the Rooney rule. 638 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 2: He got the opportunity to do the interview, and it 639 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 2: felt like the Steelers were already hiring Russ Grimm. And 640 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: I talked to Tony Dungee about this, and Tony said 641 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: that Mike Tomlin went in there and blew them away, 642 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 2: that it felt like Russ grim was getting the job. 643 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 2: But they went through the process of the Rooney rule. 644 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 2: And that's why. You know, two other coaching candidates African American, 645 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 2: and I remember them telling me they weren't going to 646 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 2: get the job. And I said, but you get better 647 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 2: by doing the interview because you'll hear sometimes, oh that 648 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 2: coach didn't interview. Well, go in and learn what they 649 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 2: ask you. So when you get that chance and maybe 650 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 2: you blow them away like Mike Tomlin did.
