1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Welcome to the program. We made it to 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:11,639 Speaker 1: a Friday, and the triggers are fired up. Peruvian roasted 4 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,479 Speaker 1: chicken with green sauce and chili lime rubbed chicken. I 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: did the rubbing myself, and of course both will get 6 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: the spatchcock treatment. My good friend Todd fritz joining me 7 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: here in the man cave. Meanwhile, Fritzie the only one 8 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: here brave enough to be in here with me, and 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 1: they're making the same amount of food as if the 10 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: other guys were. Yes, yes, So Paulie and Seaton and 11 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: mclovin are at their homes. They're they're comfortably tucked in there. 12 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: But it's Todd and myself and a bunch of spatchcock chicken. 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: Lay started to like me a little bit. There's a 14 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: rumor or the back room guys. I spoke with them. 15 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm hearing something. Something's going on. I've 16 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 1: run out of things to say to you. I ran 17 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: out of things to say to you a long long time. 18 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: I asked me this money about how my commute was. 19 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: He took one from my books, and that was just 20 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: really awkward. I did walk by, because there's been this 21 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: awkward silence with Todd and I. It's only Todd and 22 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: myself here in the man cave. You got the back 23 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: room guys, but they don't come in contact with us 24 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 1: for the most part. And I thought, God, what do 25 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: I say? What do I say? It's like I'm on 26 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: a first date and I don't know what to talk about. 27 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: You come out of the studio and then you make 28 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: a quick left turn to talk to the guy in 29 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: the back. Well. I pretend I have to go to 30 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: the bathroom, which is it's rare for me, but we're like, 31 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: we're kind of hiding from each other and just get 32 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: back just in time for the live content. I go 33 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: to the back and I talked to Alan and we 34 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 1: talk about medicinal gummies and you know the tregger and 35 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: the time at just the time where the seconds left, 36 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: we have to be back on this. There's no root 37 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: I did. I was talking to Alan and all of 38 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: a sudden, I hear the music, I hear the bells, 39 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: and I go I got to get out there, and 40 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: he goes. I picked up on that. I could pick 41 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: up the social keys way. I know what you're doing. 42 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: I did stop by Todd's desk this morning. I said, hey, 43 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: I cut my hair again. So it's nine consecutive months 44 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: here where I've cut my hair and he goes, looks good, 45 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: they said, And he said, what night a Honakers. I 46 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: was just you're just grabbed. I know, I was, I know. 47 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: I said, happy honeka. I said, this is like a 48 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: day two a Haneka, but it's not Christmas. Right after 49 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: you do sal cream apple sauce with the lattis, what 50 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: are they You're just grabbing for whatever. We can talk about. Man, 51 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: I do miss you guys, setan boy and make loving Yeah, 52 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: it make loving. God. We need to do a sitcom 53 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: based on this, like a buddy cop movie or something. 54 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: You need to film these diteractions, Yeah, Seaton and Todd 55 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: isn't someone who does well with silence. He likes to 56 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: fill up the space. He likes to fill up the 57 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: air when you're with It's like so like if it's silent, 58 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: he's very uncommon. If if it's not awkward conversation that 59 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 1: I'm humming or singing some song from nineteen seventy eight 60 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 1: or just just bringing up anything like the sports, no 61 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: very good, I know. And then we have Michael Boublay 62 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: on in the final hour, and uh so Todd's been 63 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: humming or singing Michael Boublay songs. And since we've no 64 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: place to go, let it snow, let it snow. It's new. Yes, 65 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: it's tough because Todd either can be silent for hours, days, 66 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: months on end, or talk for hours days. I go 67 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: to extremes. No middle ground. It's like it's like a 68 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: quarterback max contract or a max supermax deal in the NBA. 69 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: There's no middle ground. It's like that Billy Joel song. 70 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: Could I sing the birth? Yeah? Sure, went not Okay, 71 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: that's enough? Uh so, uh yeah, so Todd and Todd 72 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: and uh and myself here in the manque Yeah great. 73 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: Watching the sports was a football game last night? How 74 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: about those Rams? Yeah yeah, yeah, Well, revenge is a 75 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: dish best served with a great defense and a strong 76 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: running game, or at least that's what Sean McVeigh ordered 77 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: up last night. This doesn't avenge the loss of the Patriots. 78 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: I like, how, oh the Rams avenge the loss of 79 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: the Patriots. No, you lost his Super Bowl and you 80 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: won a regular season game. But McVay became a coaching 81 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: sensation when he was building a high octane offense. He 82 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: was the quarterback whisper now and I gotta give him 83 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: credit because this is what good coaches, great coaches do, 84 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: You adapt to your personnel. And he's got a very 85 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: good defense. They got a running game and that's what 86 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: was showcased last night. You give me cam Akers running 87 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: the ball, solid defense with Aaron Donald, and Donald had 88 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 1: another sack and a half. They got to pick six 89 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: from linebacker Kenny Young. But give credit to the coaching staff. 90 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: You play to your strengths there. And who would have 91 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: thought a Southern California team with bright yellow splashed all 92 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: over their uniforms would be a tough football team. Try 93 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: telling that to Aaron Donald. But the Rams sit atop 94 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: the NFC West for now. Maybe they found a different 95 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: formula to go back to the Super Bowl. But that 96 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: was very impressive last night. Here is Sean McVay on 97 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: the Rams and their offense. The offensive line, tight ends, receivers, 98 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: everybody contributed in then cam Akers had a big night. 99 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,239 Speaker 1: I think this was something that he was on track 100 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: to be able to do. Really pleased to see that 101 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: and come away with the win. We'll get a couple 102 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: of days arrest and they'll come back ready to roll 103 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: for the Jets. Cam akers one hundred and seventy one 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: yards rushing last night, the most all time by a 105 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: rookie against the Patriots. Yeah that, you know, can Jared 106 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: Goff be just good enough? I don't need him to 107 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: be great. If you have that defense, you have a 108 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: running game, you get into the playoffs and this is 109 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: how you win. You win with defense, you control the clock, 110 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: but you're still able to rely on your quarterback for 111 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, some big plays, timely plays. That's really the key. 112 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 1: But you know, the Patriots are held under seven points 113 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: for the second time this season, which is amazing. And 114 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: Cam Newton five total touchdown passes in twelve starts. That's 115 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: the fewest by any quarterback during the first twelve starts 116 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: in a season since Trent Dilfer back in nineteen ninety 117 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: five with the Buccaneers, when he had just three touchdown passes. 118 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: Cam doesn't look comfortable. I don't know if he's healthy. 119 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if the shoulder is healthy. But it 120 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: feels like he leans back and almost throws off his 121 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: back foot. He just doesn't look like he's stepping into 122 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: a throw doesn't look comfortable at all. I don't know 123 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: what that means long term. I don't know if the 124 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: Patriots realize what they have or they don't have with 125 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: Cam Newton. I don't think they look at Jared Stidham 126 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: as the future here. So the Patriots it appears as 127 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: if would be in the market for another quarterback. Here's 128 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick answering the question of who's his starter. Cam 129 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: got pulled from last night's game. You're gonna stick with 130 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 1: Cam next week? At quarterbacks, I really play you asked 131 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: that Cam's our quarterback. I'm sure that he was so 132 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: waiting for Mike Reese of ESPN to ask that question, like, 133 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: oh god, I hope somebody asked me, who's my starting quarterback. 134 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: I'm glad you asked that, Mike. Yeah, Cam as my starter. 135 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: Here's Cam Newton on being benched. Took you out of 136 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: the game with a little over ten minutes left, or 137 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: you started about not or being benched for next week 138 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: or anything like that. That's not my call. I'm just 139 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: doing what I'm ask that's not just still go on 140 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: stage and every week with the mentality to keep getting better, 141 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: and that's what I plan on doing. All right. You 142 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: know at this stage, you know, I didn't think they'd 143 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: make the playoffs. They've had some moments where I thought, 144 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: you know what, maybe they're going to get it together. 145 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: Or if they do and they get into the postseason, 146 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: I think Belichick has done a pretty good job here. 147 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: Believe it or not. You know, we're finding out that 148 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: Cam may not be your starting quarterback anymore, or at 149 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: least he's certainly not going to be on an elite level, 150 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: even a very good level. It's kind of an inconsistent 151 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: level where he's gonna have these games and he's gonna 152 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,119 Speaker 1: have other games where you go, yep, Cam still great. 153 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: They don't have weapons, That's it, pure and simple. And 154 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: if I have a quarterback who is not accurate, those 155 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: weapons are reduced even more because, at least with Brady, 156 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: you had an accurate quarterback who understood the system. Cam 157 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: is not able to do them. That's just not his style, 158 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: not who he is. But somehow they have remained competitive. 159 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: They're just not a good team, and they're who would 160 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: have thought that. You would say the Patriots were the 161 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: fourth best team, our third best team in their division. Gosh, 162 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: I almost put them below the Jets. But the Bills 163 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: are better and the Dolphins are better, and now they're 164 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: sort of mired in mediocrity. We're not used to this, 165 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: and that's the fascination of now what do they do 166 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: going into next season? Yes, Paulie, I would love to know, 167 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: and we never will. If Tom Brady watched that game 168 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: last night, and if he enjoyed watching that game last night, 169 00:08:55,160 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: deep down, deep down, if he enjoyed watching it, I 170 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: don't know, because then I could say the same thing 171 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: about Belichick when he you know, does he watch a 172 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: standalone Tampa Bay game and then does he smile a 173 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: little bit when he sees Tom struggle? I got. I 174 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: don't know that relationship where Tom wants to sick. Tom 175 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: didn't want to stay with the Patriots, so I don't 176 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: know how he could watch and go yeah, see, I 177 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: told you he didn't want to stay there, and Belichick 178 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: was ready to move on. So I don't know how 179 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: Tom can look at this and go. You know, I 180 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 1: could see where Belichick, if he saw Tom playing, well, 181 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 1: might go you know what, Maybe I should have reconsidered 182 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: that or tried to mend this relationship. Maybe, But I 183 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: don't see Tom looking and going. Yeah, told you guys. Yeah, 184 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: I think if anything. Tom watches that and he's like, 185 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: thank god, I got out of it. I don't want 186 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 1: to be thrown at those dudes either. Yeah. I'd rather 187 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: have my head coach yell at me. You know, I'm 188 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: fine with in front of the media.

Nine months. I haven't gone to 197 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: the I proudly say I haven't gone to the barber. 198 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: I'm a home haircutter. Dan. Do you use the guard clippers? 199 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: Do you use a comb to lift it up a 200 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: little bit? And measured out? I don't know what it is. 201 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: My wife bought it at a pharmacy like CBS, and 202 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: I said great, and then I just went out and 203 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: started hacking away. And uh, look at me. Who would 204 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: who would ever thought that I didn't go to a 205 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: professional hairstylist here with with whatever this is seton. You 206 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: don't do your own, do you? Sometimes? Okay, sometimes I do. 207 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: I have a couple of times in the last like 208 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: nine months, I have. But I've also gone to the 209 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: barber twice. And normally I don't go. I don't spend 210 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: a lot on my haircuts, like I'll go to like 211 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: super Cuts or something. Whoever can take me. Whenever they 212 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: can take me, then I'm fine with them. I don't 213 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: I don't need to get Even when I was doing 214 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: football Night in America, now we did have somebody who 215 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: would or could cut your hair, but it didn't matter 216 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: to me. I figured I got good moss for the 217 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: most part, and go in there and let somebody just 218 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: tidy it up. Yeah. Seed, So I used to cut 219 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: my hair a lot all the time. But then once 220 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, my son had really long hair, and then 221 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: once he decided to cut it, go into the barber 222 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: became like a thing for him. So now me and 223 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: him go to the barber, and he has one guy 224 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: that he really likes to go to, and then I'll 225 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: just go to whoever is free at the same time. 226 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: So it's kind a little bit of a thing. Now, yeah, 227 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: I get it, a little bonding there getting your hair cut. 228 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna check in with the Houston Rockets, and as 229 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: I meant, Johnny Bench, who's going to join his coming 230 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: up next hour. A really cool thing that happened with 231 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: Johnny Bench. He was auctioning off a lot of his 232 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: awards and he found somebody who was going to buy 233 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: most of it, and they gave it all back to him. 234 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: So we'll talk to Johnny about that coming up, and 235 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: that the aforementioned Michael Bubley is going to join us 236 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 1: as well. Rams Roll the Patriots. The Clippers maxed out 237 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: with Paul George. Okay, I don't understand this that. Can 238 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: you can you offer something but not the max to 239 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: Paul George? Why was it? Was it four years one 240 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 1: ninety and then like it becomes monopoly money after a while. 241 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: But can I can I say to Paul George's representative, 242 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: you know he's not an A player, He's kind of 243 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 1: a bee. He's a bee, a solid B player. Why 244 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: am I paying the max? It's like these quarterbacking contracts. 245 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: Does everybody next man up gets more than the next guy? 246 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: I don't understand this. You've got brilliant businessmen who made 247 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: money to buy these NFL teams, and then they get 248 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: stupid when it comes crazy when it comes to contract negotiations, 249 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: because not every quarterback deserves to be paid more than 250 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: the next quarterback. I could you imagine Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, 251 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield Junior, the third when their contracts are up, 252 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: and then do they get extended? And then is Baker 253 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: Mayfield going to be making more than Aaron Rodgers? And 254 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: the answer is going to be yes if they decide 255 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: to extend it. Josh Allen, they're good players, they're not 256 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: great players. They don't deserve to be making more than 257 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: these Marquis quarterbacks. But it feels like, hey, next man up, 258 00:13:55,360 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: next man up. But the Paul George deal, all right, 259 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: good luck with that. All the baggage that's kind of 260 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: come along with the Paul George and Kwhi Leonard. You 261 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: pull back the curtain and you realize why there was 262 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: some unrest with you know, the secondary players there where 263 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 1: they're going to wait a minute, why is it there's 264 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: a set of rules for those two, and then there's 265 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: a set of rules for us, and they allow this 266 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: to happen. And it's not like you can go, hey, 267 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna change things around here. I mean, as ty 268 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: Lu was there with Doc Rivers, is Tylu gonna go, hey, 269 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: there's a new sheriff in town. You guys aren't going 270 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: to dictate when we practice or when the jet leaves. Well, 271 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: good luck with that holding them accountable. And uh, you know, 272 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: James Harden is adding the Bucks and the Heat to 273 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: his growing list. I thought he was going to be 274 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: a good soldier and just go about this and say, 275 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna I'm gonna show up. I'm gonna 276 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: do everything I'm told to do. But behind the scenes, 277 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: I want everybody to know exactly play how I feel 278 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: I want out. Even though he created all of this, 279 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: it feels like James Harden had total autonomy there. Who 280 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: they brought in. I guess he wanted ty Lew as 281 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: his head coach. I don't know if that would have 282 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: kept him there. I'm guessing it would have. But then 283 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: if he has such a problem with ownership, why would 284 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: it matter who your coach is. But he's steadfast and 285 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: wanting out. So we'll check in with the Rockets coming 286 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: up eight seven seven three d P show email address 287 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: DPA Dan Patrick dot come Nicklove and what kind of 288 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: pull question do you have today? So I have the 289 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: hot NBA question that everybody is asking, which former Oklahoma 290 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: City Thunder is most likely to win a title this year? Now, 291 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: I know it sounds random, but it kind of stums 292 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: up the whole NBA. He's look at the guys. He's 293 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: got Chris Paul with the Sons, Hardened with the Rockets 294 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: for now, Kevin Durant with the Nets, Paul George with 295 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: the Clippers, Rusts with the Wizards, Carmelo Anthony with the Blazers, 296 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: and I guess Steven Adams as a Pelican. I had 297 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: to google well at this morning, did you guys know that? No? 298 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: I didn't. The Thunder are spread across the NBA and 299 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: all the titles, So basically, who's more likely to win 300 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: Chris Paul with the Suns. I'm gonna go Kevin Durant. Yeah, 301 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: you don't have to run down the list again. I'd 302 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: go Harden. How about Hardened with the Bucks? Why don't 303 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: know if you're if you're the Greek freak, do you 304 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: want to play with James Harden? He didn't want him 305 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: on his All Star team. The Greek Freak was picking 306 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: his All Star team. Correct me if I'm wrong, But 307 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: didn't he take Kemba Walker because he wanted somebody to 308 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: pass it to him? He took Kemball Walker over James Harden. 309 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: And now the Greek Freak's gonna go. Man, Yeah, let's 310 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: go out and get James Harden. Like, I can't even 311 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: can he coexist with Jimmy Butler in Miami Like, I 312 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: have no idea. Harden loves to score. It feels like 313 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler knows he has to score. There's a difference 314 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: in their approach. It feels like but I don't know 315 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: if the Heat would They could offer up Bam out 316 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: of Bio and Tyler Hero and probably something else, and 317 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: maybe you bring in James Harden. I don't know. But 318 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: the Bucks, if I'm the Greek Freak and you want 319 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: me to stay, I don't know if that's unless the 320 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: Bucks go, hey, we may lose the Greek freak. Let's 321 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: bring in James Harden. Let's be proactive on this. Yeah, mcclemen, 322 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: would you do that deal? If you're the Miami Heat 323 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: like a Hero and not a bio for Harden. No, no, 324 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: I like what Miami's done. I mean, that's as good 325 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: of a team as we saw last year. I mean 326 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: they did a lot of things really well. They had 327 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: injuries in the finals, they weren't gonna win, but what 328 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: they did was pretty impressive. And if you add something, 329 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: the Greek freak is looking at Miami. If he doesn't 330 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,880 Speaker 1: stay with Milwaukee, he may end up there, So he's 331 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: he's something there. But I just don't know where James 332 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: Harden's head is, like do you really want to win? 333 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: Like how he wants to go to a contender, but 334 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: he helped ruin the Rockets as a contender. Hey, I 335 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: want this guy. Get rid of this guy, bring this 336 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: guy in trade all of our draft picks to get 337 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: this guy in here. He wanted Kevin McHale out. Reportedly, Hey, 338 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: like he's he's orchestrating all of this and now all 339 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: of a sudden he has this epiphany where he wants out. 340 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to take a chance on that because 341 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if James Harden is in his mind 342 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: able to be the sixth man of the Year in 343 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City. That kind of James Harden or is it 344 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: going to be I gotta get my shots, I gotta 345 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: get my touches, I gotta get thirty points a game, 346 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 1: because I don't want that. I am fascinated by him. 347 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: I've said that for years. I find him fascinating. That 348 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: doesn't mean I want him as a teammate or on 349 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 1: the team that I root for. Yes, Ton, imagine Milwaukee, 350 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: the marketing the freak and the beard and what you 351 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: can do with that alone. We forget about winning a title. 352 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: The amount of merchandise and posters and money coming out. Oh, 353 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: I think winning a title would be a lot more 354 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: money than merchandise. But still the freak and the beard 355 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: of the same tea would be pretty awesome. It still 356 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: got to play back. You have to win games, yeah, 357 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: and get the champ. Yeah. I don't know if you 358 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: can go to the Greek Freak and say, hey, I 359 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: know you don't want him on your team, but just 360 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: think of the market you got this poster we can 361 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: make to Just think of the number of T shirts 362 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: we might sell, like fifteen thousand T shirt all you 363 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: really want though, and then we're throwing the ring.

McClement, We did not. I have 407 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: another question off last night. Okay, if you could start 408 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: a defense with one lineman, and you've seen all these 409 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: guys Aaron Donald, Lawrence Taylor, Reggie White, JJ Watt, and 410 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: tell me if I'm seeing anybody in that conversation. So 411 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: this isn't a defensive lineman because Lawrence Taylor's not a 412 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: defensive lineman. Oh sorry, like a pass rusher. Yeah, I 413 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: actually let's just say defensive player. You could put a 414 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: cornerback or safety in there if you want. Okay, there 415 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: anybody who else like that jumps to mind? Well, mean 416 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: Joe Green deserves to be in there. So I can 417 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: start a defense with any of these players, Aaron Donald, 418 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: Reggie White, I mean Joe Green, Lawrence Taylor, R. Smith. 419 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: He's worth mentioning. Yeah, but I wouldn't consider him the 420 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: great disruptor I'm thinking about. This is just a standalone guy, 421 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: Lawrence Taylor's I would say Lawrence Taylor just because there 422 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: was nobody like him, and I don't think there's been 423 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: anybody since who's like him. It was just different and 424 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 1: at the time, and I was in New York and 425 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: I was able to go to those Giants home games 426 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: because I was working in New York CNN, and I 427 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: was just fascinated. Watching from the sidelines gave me a 428 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: whole different perspective because you look when you watch somebody 429 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: rush to the passer, and you think, wow, that's kind 430 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: of quick. When you're watching on TV, it doesn't seem 431 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,959 Speaker 1: as quick when they get there. In person, you're just 432 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: going to it's a blur, and I just can't imagine 433 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: trying to block him and you have to know where 434 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: he is. But what I saw and what I saw 435 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: in person, I was always fascinated with Reggie White's strength, 436 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: mean Joe Green's attitude. Aaron Donald might turn out to 437 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: be the best interior lineman, defensive lineman. He might, you know, 438 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: t J. Watt might win Defensive Player of the Year, 439 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: but Aaron Donald is really the best defensive player in 440 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: football and on a shortlist of best players in the NFL. 441 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: He you know every play he's going to get double two. 442 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: He knows he's going to get double team every single play. 443 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: There's two players who account for Aaron Donald. I don't 444 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: know if there's any other player in football that that happens, 445 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: but it certainly does with Aaron Donald. But yeah, I 446 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: would go Lawrence Taylor just because of the fascination and 447 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: to see that. But he was allowed to freelance. You 448 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: have to understand what defenses used to be like that. 449 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: They were pretty structured and you sort of stayed in 450 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: your lanes of what you were supposed to do. Lawrence 451 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: Taylor freelanced like he didn't. He wasn't there to stop 452 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 1: the run. He was there to take your head off. 453 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: And just that fear factor, the fact that the Washington Redskins, 454 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: with Joe Gibbs great offensive mind, would keep a tight 455 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: end in just for Lawrence Taylor when they play, because 456 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: even though he had Joe Jacobe, who was a six seven, 457 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,679 Speaker 1: three hundred pound left tackle and a great tackle, he 458 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 1: have a tight end stay in on Lawrence's side. It 459 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: was the ultimate compliment. And we've seen guys who now freelance, 460 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 1: but Lawrence Taylor was freelancing back then and he was 461 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 1: playing for you know, Parcels and Belichick. I would imagine 462 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: if you said to Belichick, who's the greatest defensive player 463 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: of all time, he'd say Lawrence Taylor. Yeah, McClellan, how 464 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: about like an Ed Reid or a different vision of 465 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: Ray Lewis, Mike Singletary, darrelle Revis, any outside guy get 466 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: consideration from you. I love Ed Reid just his brilliance 467 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: playing center field. But but Lawrence Taylor created the disruption 468 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: to allow guys in the secondary secondary to clean up 469 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: the mess. Like because Lawrence was so great, that would 470 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: help everybody else on defense. Ed Reid was great, you know, 471 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 1: Ray was great. You know, he was a solid old 472 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: school linebacker. You know, Dion was wonderful. But I you know, 473 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: I can stay away from the left side of the field. 474 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: They may take away aside of the field. Lawrence Taylor 475 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: is gonna eventually find you, or you're gonna find him. 476 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: I can stay away from Rivas. I could stay away 477 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: from Dion. You know a lot of those players. But 478 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: when it comes to an impact, Lawrence Taylor had about 479 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: a five or six year run where it wasn't close. 480 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: I mean that that was a that was a tour 481 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: to force. Yeah, Paully and Lawrence Taylor kind of invented 482 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 1: the position. If you look in nineteen eighty, the year 483 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: before he got there, the first team all Pro defensive 484 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: ends were guys like Leroy Selman and Fred Dean and 485 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 1: Lyle Alzato and Art Still and Jack young Blood. They 486 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: were big, strong and somewhat athletic a couple of them, 487 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: but they weren't the most athletic person on the field. 488 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: It felt like Lawrence Taylor was the most talented person 489 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball, and he happened to 490 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: be at the rush end position. No, he was a linebacker. Yeah, No, 491 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: he wasn't. He wasn't a defensive end. I know it 492 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: wasn't end, but he was was rushing in the quarterback. 493 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's what he did. But he was a linebacker, 494 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 1: make no mistake about that. They had Carl Banks and 495 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: Gary Reasons and Harry Carson there. I mean, that's a 496 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: pretty good linebacking corps. They cleaned up all the mess, 497 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: they stopped the run game and allowed Lawrence Taylor to freelance. 498 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: But I think Belichick and Parcels knew what they had 499 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: and nobody else in the NFL had anything like that. Yeah, 500 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: McLevin got a totally different left turn poll question. And 501 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: I'm asking this because there's one game I want you 502 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: to answer about. You can watch one game this weekend 503 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 1: Chiefs Dolphins, Vikings, Box Steelers, Bills, Ravens, Browns. But the 504 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: one I want you to answer, Saints Eagles. How fascinating 505 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: is this game going to be? Well? I hope that 506 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is able to play like he did and 507 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 1: mop up duty against the Packers, Like I hope that 508 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: there's still that energy that's there because that was fun 509 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: to see. But yeah, I'm really interested to see how 510 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 1: those two go at each other, Taysom Hill and Jalen Hurts, 511 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: Like who runs more, who throws for more yards? You know, 512 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: just the prop bets between those two would be really interesting. Chiefs, Dolphins, Buccaneers, Vikings. 513 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: I have no idea what I'm going to get out 514 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 1: of either one of those teams. Steelers, Bills to me 515 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: very intriguing. And then the Ravens and the Browns. It 516 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: feels like this is when the Browns act like the 517 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: old Browns and they lose a home game. Been a 518 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: great story. Everybody's been lauding them, and hey, they're a 519 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: different team and they're nine and three, they're going to 520 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: the play. Okay, then win this game, Buffalo, win this game. 521 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: Like these are the games that define your season, where 522 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: you go, hey, we got to stand up to the Steelers, 523 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: the Browns, you know, Ravens and Steelers both coming in. 524 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: You know, Ravens had a big win momentum. The Steelers, 525 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: you know, get embarrassed by Washington. This is when you 526 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: need to win those games. You know, the Chiefs they 527 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: play down to the opposition. Are they going to keep 528 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: the Dolphins in the game here? And then the Vikings 529 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: can be really good and really bad, and the Buccaneers 530 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: can be really good and really average. So there's some 531 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: fascinating matchups there. As far as college football, Bama Arkansas, 532 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: this is one of those. I guess you'd call it 533 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: a trap game if you're Alabama because Arkansas has shown 534 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: signs of life that they're not a pushover LSU in Florida. 535 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: Does LSU at any point here act like they could 536 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: be a good team? And then USC UCLA I find 537 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: really interesting as well, kind of fascinating because the Keyton 538 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: Slovis bandwagon is starting to pick up some new members, 539 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: maybe not in first class, maybe not in business class, 540 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: but in coach right now, the USC quarterback, you know 541 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: what we we love something we can't have when you 542 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: have a quarterback and he's not draft eligible, we slob 543 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: her all over him. Oh my god, Josh Rosen, Oh, 544 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: Christian Hackenburg, Oh uah, we want all of those quarterbacks. 545 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: Matt Barkley, Matt Leiner, Oh, we want that quar God, 546 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: if he was coming out now, he'd be the number 547 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: one pick. Okay. Keeton Slova's the USC quarterback has I 548 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: think it was his three star recruit coming out of Arizona, 549 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: and uh, I think he played on Kurt Warner's sons team, 550 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: and you know, he sort of waited his time and 551 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: got the starting role and he's shown signs that you know, 552 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: he's a talented quarterback. He feels like he's the next 553 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: quarterback for next year, where he might be the number 554 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: one prospect, subject to change, of course. He asked mclovin. 555 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: I look for some quotes from like FL types on him, 556 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: and a lot of people said, oh, we don't evaluate 557 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: him now because he's not draft eligible. You know, scouts like, 558 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: is that true that the NFL doesn't look at the 559 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: non draft eligible guys or is that just a line 560 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,959 Speaker 1: to avoid answering it. That's a line to avoid answering it, 561 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: because I know for a fact, a source of mind, 562 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: who is a scout? They start that research because you 563 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: want to know what they were like the year before 564 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: they were eligible. You know that That was the whole 565 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: thing with Jordan Love because I go you know, you 566 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: could say, well, he didn't play that well his last 567 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: year at Utah State, but the previous year he looked great. 568 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: And then you look back and say, well, he had weapons, 569 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: he had a better offensive line, he had more time. 570 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: You know, he didn't have the weapons, didn't have the time, 571 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: and he struggled the next year. I have to have 572 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: something to compare it to. It's the same thing that 573 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: was brought up to me with Joe Burrow. So who 574 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: is Joe Burrow? Was he the guy the previous year 575 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: who was just okay, you know, good to the guy 576 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: who turned in the greatest college football season statistically for 577 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: a quarterback in history. Because that's a big leap from 578 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: he's a fourth or fifth round pick the previous year 579 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: to the number one pick overall. Jalen Hurts went from 580 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: losing his job at Alabama going to Oklahoma. Oh he's 581 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: not a first day draft pick, maybe not second day. 582 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: Be a project too. He's drafted in the second round. 583 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: You got a factor in all of those things. And 584 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: if I'm a scout, I want to do my due 585 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: diligence because I want to know. Imagine if Christian Hackenburg 586 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: could have come out after his freshman year at Penn State, 587 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: might have been the number one pick overall. He's not 588 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: in football, I don't think now. I don't think he 589 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: made a roster even as a third string quarterback. I 590 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: think he was in the oh he was, yeah, but hey, 591 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: oh my god, have you seen this guy? Yeah? And 592 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden you see him again, and 593 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: then you see him again and then you okay, never mind, 594 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: Yeah it's McLeman. But I think Hackerburg was a number 595 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: one recruit that carries some weight, just like justin fields, 596 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: Like people start evaluating these guys at high school. Now, yeah, 597 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: like Hackerburg was supposed to be the real deal. He 598 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: was supposed to be this god of football. Okay, but 599 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: what happened? Like how did they whiff on him? Isn't 600 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: that fascinating that you have that? And what happens is 601 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: there's a lot of you know, there's consensus where all 602 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: of a sudden, they'll go, yeah, may Hackenburg is good. Like, 603 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: people don't do their homework, and if you do your homework, 604 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 1: and then you'll find out maybe he's not that good, 605 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: maybe he's not that big, maybe he's not that fast. 606 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: And you know, to the contrary, there are times when 607 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: you do your homework and you do find somebody that 608 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: you didn't think you would find until you did your homework. 609 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: And that's where we go, Guy, how did that guy 610 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: fall through the cracks? Well, a lot of times what 611 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: happens is the media gets out in one of these 612 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: drafts and has their mock draft. Okay, I need scouts, GMS, coaches, 613 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 1: people who do this professionally, and even then they screw 614 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 1: it up. Yeah, Seed, it's got to be so tough though, 615 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 1: just going off of potential. Right like, this kid is 616 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 1: sort of on the track to being a great quarterback, 617 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: and right now, at sixteen years old, he's got all 618 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: of the things that we look for. But you have 619 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: no idea that by the time he gets to twenty, 620 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 1: he doesn't really feel like playing football anymore, or he's 621 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: bought into his own hype, or you know, a lot 622 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: changes in those years that is not really you can't 623 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: really measure that. Well, who was the quarterback at Ohio 624 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: State Tate Martell, and boy did he talk a great game. 625 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: Big recruit out of Vegas goes to Ohio State that 626 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's in the transfer portal talking 627 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: a big game going to Miami and then he doesn't 628 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 1: even play there. They try to make him a wide receiver. 629 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: There are a few people that whiffed on him, and 630 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,439 Speaker 1: he was supposed to be this all. He can beat 631 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,280 Speaker 1: you with his arm and beat you with his legs, 632 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: and I don't think he amounted to anything. He might 633 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: have transferred again. Yeah, mcclevin, remember when Kyle Kyle Allen 634 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: came out of Arizona and you came in and said, well, 635 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: they were saying this is the best kid, but I 636 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: haven't seen it yet. I think he went to A 637 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: and M and never and now he's in the NFL. 638 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 1: But he never did anything in college. Yeah, he was 639 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: the number one guy, But I don't buy into that 640 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:29,760 Speaker 1: number one quarterback because it just so much changes physically, mentally. 641 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: Who's your coach when you get to college, When do 642 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: you get to play? Who's in front of you? Are 643 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: you starting right away? Do you have to sit? You know, 644 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,439 Speaker 1: there's so many things that factor in, and even going 645 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 1: into the NFL, it's who's your offensive coordinator, what kind 646 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: of stability, what kind of offense are you running, who's 647 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: your head coach, who's going to be your backup or 648 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: who are you backing up? What's your offensive line like, 649 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: what kind of skilled position? You know? All of those 650 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: things are should be factored in. We just assume, hey, 651 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: this guy was good in college, he'll just walk in 652 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 1: and be good in the pros and it doesn't happen 653 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: that way. Yeah. Paul Keaton Slovis of USC is one 654 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: of those guys who people slept on a little bit. 655 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 1: He went to a high school in Scottsdale, Arizona, and 656 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,879 Speaker 1: the senior year, Kurt Warner was his quarterback coach. Kurt 657 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: Warner was helping out the team. He got no offers 658 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: from Arizona or Arizona State, no in student state offers 659 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: except for like Northern Arizona. USC showed up late and 660 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: scooped him up and then they got him out of nowhere. 661 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 1: He didn't have one big twelve, big power five offer. 662 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: Keaton Slovis out. Yeah. I think he was the three 663 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: star recruit at best, But right now he might be. 664 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,919 Speaker 1: I don't know if there are any other quarterbacks that 665 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: have emerged. McLevin, yes, I don't know. When the Clemson 666 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 1: I won't say his name. DJ is eligible, but people 667 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: are saying he's a number one overall too. Yeah, but 668 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: Slovis is going to be eligible next year. Is DJ 669 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: a true freshman or a sophomore? Now? I think I 670 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 1: gotta check. I thought he was a true freshman. I 671 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 1: thought it was the last year where I came in 672 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: and said, I just saw this high school kid and 673 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: he looked he looked like he was Cam Newton out 674 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: there about dam Wilson going back Dan any chance like 675 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: a guy would like that would look at the field 676 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,439 Speaker 1: and say, next year is more open. I don't know. 677 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,800 Speaker 1: I think that was brought up that there was always 678 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 1: the possibility that Zach would go back to BYU and 679 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: therefore he could come out next year and be the 680 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 1: number one pick overall. But I don't know. He certainly 681 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: needs another game after that performance against Coastal Carolina. Take 682 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,800 Speaker 1: a break Play of the Day Coming up next, Johnny 683 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: Bench the Hall of Famer Top of the Hour, and 684 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: we'll check in with Houston Rockets as well.

Danna leads us off today, Phil, 706 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,439 Speaker 1: what's on your mind? Hey? Dan? Always a pleasure, great 707 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 1: to talk to you. I have wanted to get your 708 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: thoughts on something. You know it's going to be pretty contentious. 709 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,839 Speaker 1: I think if Ohio State gets in, no matter who 710 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 1: gets left out. Do you think that this situation this 711 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: year will finally maybe be the straw that breaks the 712 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 1: camel's back in the committee next year? Says you know what, 713 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: Let's just go with the Power five plus three. Dan. 714 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: Always appreciate it. Have a great weekend. Thank you, Phil, 715 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,320 Speaker 1: you too, thanks for calling. I don't know what moves 716 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: the NCAA along or the Power five. I mean, the 717 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:37,479 Speaker 1: Power five runs college football ESPN and the Power five 718 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 1: run college football. But I don't know. If they open 719 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: up negotiations and all of a sudden they're going to 720 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: extend it, expand it to eight, I don't know. I 721 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: would have hoped if they were going to do it, 722 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 1: this would have been the year. But also, if you know, 723 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 1: this was such a moving target. We didn't know who 724 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: could play, when they could play in for how long 725 00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: could they play? And we're already finding out the disparity 726 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: between some of these schools who are going to play 727 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: twice as many games as Ohio Statius, but they're going 728 00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: to be in the final four, it looks like with 729 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: those other schools. So I don't know. If college football goes, hey, 730 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: we give up, let's come up with a new plan here, 731 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: they'd move very very slowly with the NC double A. Yeah, Polly, 732 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: if I think everyone saw the news, but if you 733 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: didn't think that ESPN and the SEC ran college football already. 734 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: ESPN Networks becomes the exclusive home of SEC football starting 735 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, a ten year deal. That afternoon 736 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: game that used to be on CBS is now going 737 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: to be on ESPN. Yeah. Well, CBS got a sweetheart 738 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: deal because what they were paying for that SEC game 739 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 1: every Saturday afternoon. They were paying fifty five million dollars 740 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: annually to get the SEC's weekly top game plus the 741 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 1: SEC Championship. Wow, that's a bargain. I think ESPN is 742 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,359 Speaker 1: going to be paying probably four or five times that 743 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: for that game every Saturday afternoon. And then I don't 744 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: I think that contract with was a ten year deal, 745 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 1: and I think it can't be opened up until twenty 746 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: twenty three. I believe with expanding the playoffs, I mean 747 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: everything is subject to interpretation. Hey, we can open it up, 748 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 1: and if we do it, we can do it because 749 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 1: of this, I don't know. I don't know if there 750 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:31,320 Speaker 1: are clauses in there, addendums in there, but if i'm ESPN, 751 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 1: they're the ones that benefit. You know, you're able to 752 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 1: have these Bowl games that actually means something and then 753 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: you eventually have a title game. And if you have 754 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 1: eight schools in there, the fact that if you have four, 755 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: then you have about a total of six or seven 756 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 1: schools who were in the conversation for the four spots. 757 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 1: If I extrapolate and I go to eight, now all 758 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I have twelve schools, maybe even more thirteen, 759 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: maybe fourteen. So just the possibility of going from four 760 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: to eight now I've doubled, maybe tripled the number of 761 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: schools who can be on the fringe, sort of on 762 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: the outside looking in of maybe getting in and grabbing 763 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: one of those final spots, the seventh or eighth spot. 764 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: And if you went out to ten or went out 765 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:25,479 Speaker 1: to twelve, you do the math. I keep more fan 766 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: bases interested in these games later in the season. I 767 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 1: know we get to the point with March Madness, and 768 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: if you don't make the tournament, you should be shot. 769 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: I mean that's where coaches should lose their jobs. You 770 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 1: don't make March Madness, you didn't do a good job 771 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: at all. Because it feels like they're inviting just about 772 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 1: everybody they can. Every sport is expanding their playoffs. Doesn't 773 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 1: mean it's right, but I think in what those early 774 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: round matchups look like, where if it's a one and 775 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: done or a best of three, then it's a little 776 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: bit more intriguing there. But college football expanding, I don't 777 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: know if it happens anytime soon. Johnny Bench, who's going 778 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 1: to join us. He was auctioning off all of his 779 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 1: memorabilia and then somebody bought almost all of his memorabilia, 780 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 1: and you know what they did, They gave it all 781 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: back to him. He'll tell you the story, and we'll 782 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: check in with the Rockets as well,
