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 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Two games last night at halftime, three point difference,

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: two games, four point difference, some great basketball last night,

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: and a couple of surprises. Welcome to the program. Welcome

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: to a Friday, Dan and The Dan Nstan Patrick Show.

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: And yes it is a Meet Friday. In case you

7
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: were wondering. Skirt Steak, Tacos Mexican Rice, who has it

8
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: better than we do? Thank you Pole, question, Play of

9
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: the day, stat of the day, all of that forthcoming.

10
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: Say good morning, Good morning to Peacock, our streaming partner

11
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 1: and also our great radio affiliates around the country. Gonzaga

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: goes down in flames, been a number one seed four

13
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: the last five years that there's no championship to show

14
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 1: for it. This year no different. They were surprised by

15
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: Arkansas last night. And Gonzaga has come a long way

16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: as a program, because it used to be we didn't

17
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,319
Speaker 1: talk about Gonzaga until we got to March, and then

18
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: it'd be Man and they did it again. And there

19
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: always be one or two guys that might play in

20
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: the NBA. It was always the place where John Stockton played.

21
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: But then you'd get guys like Dan Dick Allen. You

22
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: go all right, Adam Morrison. It was a cute program,

23
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 1: underdog program. They're not underdogs anymore now they're a blue blood.

24
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 1: And yet Jalen sugs a lottery pick last season. Chet

25
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: Holmgren looks like he's going to be a top five pick.

26
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: He's destined to be an Orlando Magic. But there's no

27
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: national title there. And now you might be questioning, if

28
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: you can't win the last two years, are you going

29
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: to get over the hump? This is an elite program.

30
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: You got a Hall of Fame coach. And if there's

31
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: one thing Gonzaga has taught us over the last twenty years,

32
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: it's to never underestimate that small school in the state

33
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: of Washington. But here is mark few after Gonzaga loses

34
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: to Arkansas. You know, we started this year number one,

35
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: and we're the only one that hang onto it. Everybody

36
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: else kept falling off every two weeks, and and my

37
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: guys held it and held it tell the bitter end

38
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: and did a good job taking everybody's best shot. So

39
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: I think after a week or so, we'll be able

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: to look back. It's just it's hard. We're not used

41
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: to losing in this round. Over these last four or

42
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: five years, we've been able to advance past this round

43
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: and keep it going. So I think we're a little

44
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: bit in shocked. I know we give too much credit,

45
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: too much blame to the coach, but when it comes

46
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: to these games, you invest in that coach, and I

47
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,119
Speaker 1: know it sounds like I'm sliding Mark few. Eric Musselman

48
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: can coach with anybody in the country. And that's why

49
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: I said Arkansas was a nine and a half point underdog,

50
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 1: and I said they could win this game. Here is

51
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: Eric Musselman talking about everybody saying Arkansas had no chance.

52
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: We believe you know, nobody else said. We read everything

53
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. We put it up on our screen

54
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: every single meal. Thank you to everybody that said we

55
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: had no chance. That's great. Yeah, use it his motivation.

56
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: He probably didn't use my quote where he says everybody

57
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: says we have no chance. Well, Dan Patrick said we

58
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: have a chance. But he's just saying that because he's

59
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: friends with my wife. It'd be great if he shouted

60
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 1: me out, but worked with Daniel Sargeant, his wife at

61
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: the Mothership always rooting for Arkansas. Yeah, that's right. Yeah.

62
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: This is the third time in tournament history multiple number

63
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: one seeds lost on the same day in the Sweet

64
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: sixteen or earlier. Last time was March of nineteen ninety five.

65
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: Arizona goes down in Flames. Villanova looked good. Houston. Gotta

66
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: give them a lot of credit because I knew it

67
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: was going to be a slugfest. Kelvin Sampson did a

68
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,839
Speaker 1: great job with Houston this year. Duke, you know that's

69
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: one of those They're playing Texas Tech. Like, if you're

70
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: gonna go out if coach k doesn't go to the

71
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: national title game, I don't want him going out late

72
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:58,119
Speaker 1: at night against Texas Tech no offense, but Texas Tech

73
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: unless Bob Knight was still coaching. But you know, you're like,

74
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: come on, or even Chris Beard, but he's now in

75
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: Texas Sweet sixteen tonight. Saint Peter's versus Purdue Providence versus Kansas,

76
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: North Carolina, Ucla, Iowa State and Miami. You know, there's

77
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: no pressure on me today. My brackets, they're done. Nothing

78
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: to see here because I had Arizona and Gonzaga meeting

79
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: for the national championship. Don't have to worry about that anymore. Yes,

80
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 1: Paul and Dan, if your bracket is dead, mine is

81
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: already buried in the casket and under the ground. That's mine.

82
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: This program brought to you by Discover. Real credit card

86
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: exceptionally common sense poll question today, Seaton O'Connor. We got

87
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: a couple options from PAULI here that are fun. By

88
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: the way, Seaton. Now, I'm not on social media, but

89
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: Seaton yesterday addressed a topic on social media where I

90
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,679
Speaker 1: don't know how many people suggest suggested that this show

91
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: is scripted, and I thought, how could we possibly script this?

92
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: And if we did script it, I can assure you

93
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: we would script other parts better than Yes we do. Now,

94
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: now I'm gonna show you that if you're watching on Peacock,

95
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: this is it. I mean, I this is what our

96
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: rundown is. That's all it is. Yeah, the rundown we

97
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: put together in the morning is almost childlike. It's the

98
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: very bare bones, basic, yeah, our show. When Seaton posted

99
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: the other day, I thought, I thought he was kind

100
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: of joking. We're the opposite of rehearsed, and we actually

101
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: try to talk as little as possible to prepare, not prepare,

102
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: but save it for the show. Yes, I want to

103
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 1: react naturally, just like you as remember the audience, like,

104
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: can I script Todd can't get through as Yes. But

105
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: there are people who think that that is scripted. There

106
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: are people who think that, like, oh my, yeah, good,

107
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: relying on too many scripted bits right now, Ryan scripted,

108
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: Like Jeff and Detroit scripted And you're like, dude, what

109
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't we write better scripts for them then? Like, or

110
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't we try to hire better script writers then? Like

111
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: we don't have a big staff here, But Jeff and

112
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: Detroit calls in, I don't know what he's talking about,

113
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: Ryan or not. This is all off the top of

114
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: our heads. Damn, thank you. I mean you gave us

115
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: a lot of credit there. We do prepare, but I

116
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: don't know sometimes what we're talking about or when we're

117
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: talking about it, and neither do the danits. But I

118
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: was surprised that people thought that it was scripted. Now

119
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: there are shows that I know we're scripted and we're

120
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: not like that. Yes, also the concept of scripting three hours,

121
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: that's probably like one hundred pages of the content. I

122
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: remember there was a host who filled in for you

123
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: once fifteen twelve years ago. He's gone on to a

124
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: great career, and he tried to script his segments. He

125
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: had about pages front and back. It looked like that

126
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: movie seven with all the notes said the little words yeah,

127
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: and he was paralyzed by the script and he was

128
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: looking down. I was like, that won't work. This isn't scripted.

129
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: But if you think it is, thank you, I guess.

130
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: But no, Todd is Todd, and Todd has no idea

131
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: what I'm going to address or not address, or the

132
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: opportunity or mock headlines or limerick any of that. That's

133
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: more refreshing that way. Yes, we have fun. We've had

134
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: more fun on this show. I think since we got

135
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: to LA for the super Bowl. The last couple of

136
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: months have been as much fun I think as we've

137
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: had on this program. And we did lose mclovin, but

138
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 1: Marvin has stepped in and done a wonderful job. But

139
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, we just adjusted the show a little bit.

140
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,679
Speaker 1: But there's there's nothing scripted. You know, all doing above

141
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: the noise, and that's scripted. But that's sixty seconds of

142
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: the Show's that's it. But that was written last night

143
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: or early this morning. But uh yeah, Seton got a

144
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: little fired up there with social media and the show

145
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: being scripted. Well, I like moderate this Facebook group, all

146
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: that's right, and so I see a lot of comments

147
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: and I try to let people, you know, I don't um,

148
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: I don't take down every negative thing, you know what

149
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean. Some of the things that I feel like

150
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: are a really out of line, I'll take down or

151
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: something like that. But I try to let people just

152
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: speak and stay out of it. But occasionally, as you

153
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: guys know, if something can get under my skin. And

154
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: so I just felt like I needed to address something.

155
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: I had never heard that before. In fact, I've heard

156
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: the opposite where they go, you should probably script more

157
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: that show. You guys might want to think this out

158
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 1: a little more. How about preparing a little bit more? Yeah, Paul, Dan,

159
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: I also agree that the past three months have been

160
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: the best time of my career, and I want to

161
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: thank you personally, Dan Patrick emy Winner for making it

162
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: a glorious Sorry, I've done the back page. That's a

163
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 1: run on sense you got put a couple of the

164
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: page time back to you. Dan. But see that was

165
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: scripted that Paul was going to read something. So even

166
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 1: then you told me to do that. Yes, that was fake.

167
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: That was fake. All right, welcome to the program, already

168
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: in progress. I already know how all this ends because

169
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: I've written it poorly for us, Yes it does, yes, poorly,

170
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: poorly for Fritzy. Fritzie gets a pie today, Yeah, lost

171
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: his broncos bet Oh who else is applauding Marvin is

172
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 1: because he took two pies earlier this week? And Marvin

173
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,839
Speaker 1: is doing the honors. Marvin is with his small hands.

174
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: Now you may have to use both hands on the pie.

175
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: Maybe a third hand. Yeah, yes, Seed, I've already gotten

176
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: from someone named Dylan on Twitter, which is very funny.

177
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: This is exactly the script that someone who didn't want

178
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: us to think the show is scripted would write. Well, said,

179
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: thank you Dylan. But did we script Dylan saying this

180
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: so we could include him in this? Right? There's no Dylan.

181
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: We just made that up. Yeah, Paul, can we get

182
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 1: a new category best Scripted TV Series and another chance

183
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: for an Emmy? I like it? Maybe we got a

184
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: chance like it? All right, Uh, this is more of

185
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: a drama than it is a live comedy show sports show.

186
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: You got a pull question that was not scripted. You

187
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: went off script right there? S Yeah, all right, what

188
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: do you have? Uh? Should we script this show? Yes? No? Um,

189
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 1: here's a here's a one that only Paul could probably

190
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: come up with because it's very Um, Gonzaga is a

191
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: great basketball program a nice basketball program. Big difference between

192
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: the two. Yeah, yeah, Paul, you can't be a great

193
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: basketball program without a title. Now you could throw back

194
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: in my face. Dan Marino was a great quarterback and

195
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,599
Speaker 1: no one's gonna argue that. But can Gonzaga considered a powerhouse? Like?

196
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:02,959
Speaker 1: Could I say the Dolphins are a great franchise they

197
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: had titles in the seventies, Yes, if Gonzagas had nothing?

198
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah no, Yeah they've been they've been fantastic to watch,

199
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: But how long in between championships? Like when do you

200
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: become great? And how long do you become great or

201
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: stay great if you don't win championship? Oh the back

202
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: row is fired? Yes, seedon Like UCLA, Yes, are they

203
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 1: currently great or nice? But they won one with Ed O'Bannon.

204
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 1: That's a while ago. While back. Okay, they're still kind

205
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: of dining out on Toby Bailey. Great call, Thank you,

206
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: Earl Watson. Yeah, yes, Ton, can we start the pole

207
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: question we've given the conference they're in dot dot dot,

208
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: the whole mid major thing that they hate so much.

209
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: Do you have something to say? I like that poll

210
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: question because of there's definitely an argument to be made

211
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: with that. You gotta pick. I would go nice over great.

212
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: A nice program, I would say very nice with us

213
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: not one of the choices. They're a relevant program that's

214
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: somewhere between nice and great, because greatness comes with championships. Yeah.

215
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: See if you listen to that sound bite that you

216
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 1: played earlier today with Mark Few, Yeah, and he's saying, Hey,

217
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: everybody's taking their best shot at us, and I'm just

218
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: happy that these guys. That's a big time program comment,

219
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: not an underdog nice program comment. Yeah. I hate when

220
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: I hear that, Like you should take it as a compliment. Yes,

221
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 1: they gear up for you. They do that for Duke

222
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: every year. You know they're gonna do that for Tom

223
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: Brady this year, and you gear up against the best. Yeah, Marph,

224
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: here's my thing, So will Mark, if you ever ever

225
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: ever be on the hot seat at Gonzaga. No, so

226
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: they're relevant, they're not a great program, because a great

227
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: program would suggest that a couple of losing seasons or

228
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: a couple of high seeds and you don't win at all,

229
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: there's some pressure. Okay, is John Calla Perry on the

230
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: hot seat? Wouldn't he be more so on the hot

231
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 1: seat kind of hot seas? Yes, hot seed? Ish yes, polish.

232
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,319
Speaker 1: So in the last two decades, what resume would you

233
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: want Gonzaga relevant every year going to the tournament high

234
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: seed or Florida who won two national titles six or seven.

235
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: It hasn't really done much before or after. But that

236
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: little run they had with Noah and Billy Donna, Billy Donovan.

237
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: I would rather be Gunza. I want to be relevant

238
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: every year. But Florida's got back to back Billy Donovan.

239
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,599
Speaker 1: I know, but you have to remind people. Now you

240
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: might go Gunzag and people get it launst again. Yeah,

241
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: oh they didn't win the championship again. Yes, yes, time,

242
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: but to get past the whole But you're in that conference.

243
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: That's why you're thirty one in one or thirty two,

244
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: and how every year it's like play some real teams.

245
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: The only way to get past that is to go

246
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: all the way, win six straight games and cut down

247
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: those nets at least one time, all right, after even

248
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: a student all right, thank you ton, Well, then maybe

249
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: they should join the Pac PAC twelve. Maybe they should. Yeah,

250
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: sort of making a pro Rell argument right now, you

251
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: need to be promoted up into the big boys, or

252
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: you need to be relegated down to the other guys. Yeah,

253
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: it's a relevant program. You know, when you go all

254
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: in and you get the number one pick and chat

255
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: Homegren or the number one recruit and he comes in.

256
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: He had a rough night. I didn't think the officials

257
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: were fair to him and a couple of those fouls

258
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: that were called. But you know, you got to show

259
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: up in the first half. But what I saw was

260
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: Arkansas was going to be more physical. They took it

261
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: to Gonzaga and chat Homegren paid the price, and look,

262
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: you know, he's a project. He's got potential. But this

263
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: is what basketball is now. You can be one and

264
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: done and not be anywhere near a finished product. And

265
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: he might not be for three or four years, and

266
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: he might not be even when he gets into the NBA.

267
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: It is there for three or four years. There's a

268
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: lot of potential there, but he didn't show up in

269
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: the first half. And then you get into foul trouble

270
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: and Arkansas, Arkansas got every loose ball. I love watching that.

271
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: If it's a fifty fifty, who's getting the ball? And

272
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: Arkansas got the ball almost ninety percent of the time.

273
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: And I thought that that was a really strong statement rebounds.

274
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: They weren't afraid. A couple of big blocks in there,

275
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 1: and you send Gonzaga packing. All right, we'll take a break.

276
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: We'll get phone calls coming up. Eight seven seven three

278
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: Fritzie has Gonzaga mock headlines. I'm also bitter because I

279
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: had the Zags winning it all over Arizona. So you know,

280
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: that's why maybe I'm taking my shots at how they

281
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: should be considered a nice program instead of a great program.

282
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: All right, there is some angry, okay, especially seeing all

283
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: those balls going to the other team and knock the Zags.

284
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: All right, we'll take a break. It's been a great

285
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: month in the NFL. The NFL was undefeated. Who had

286
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: the best month and who got the better end of

287
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Miami trade, which Tyrehill. I did love

288
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill's honesty as to why he wanted to go

289
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: to the Dolphins. We'll have that for you coming up

300
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: I was curious what Tyreek Hill would say the reason

301
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: why he decided to leave Kansas City because kans City

302
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: was going to make him a nice offer. I don't

303
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: think he ever wanted to go to the Jets. But

304
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill was asked why he chose the Miami Dolphins,

305
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: and he had this to say. It's tough, man, but

306
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: if somebody comes to you with a lot of money,

307
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: it changes, it changes. The feelings started to change a

308
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: little bit. Okay, now you said he was just kidding.

309
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 1: You wasn't kidding. It's all about the money, all right.

310
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 1: It was an offer he couldn't turn down. But I

311
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: wonder who got the better end of this deal? If

312
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: you just said right now, who got the better end

313
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: of the deal? I do like what Kansas City did

314
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: because I think they had to do that. I don't

315
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: want to tie that kind of money up with a

316
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: guy who might lose the following year. You get all

317
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: those draft picks, now, are they going to be as explosive?

318
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: Mike Mayock, the former Raider GM, will join us a

319
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: little bit later on to talk about this, but right now,

320
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 1: Ross Tucker, CBS Westwood One color analyst, host of the

321
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: Ross Tucker Football Podcast, and you can follow him on

322
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: social media at Ross Tucker NFL. Ross. Good morning. Let's

323
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: start with the trade and we probably have to wait

324
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: a couple of years I guess to assess this. But

325
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: on face value, what part of the trade deal like

326
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 1: or not like? Well, it's funny, Dan, because I don't

327
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: like it in the near term for the Chiefs, but

328
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: they're taking a longer time horizon look at this thing, right,

329
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: They're not just looking at this year or the year after.

330
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,679
Speaker 1: They know they have Patrick Mahomes as their quarterback for

331
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: the next ten years, and I think they're trying to

332
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 1: make sure that they have a chance to play in

333
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 1: more conference championship games, get to more Super Bowls while

334
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: they have Mahomes. You know, he signed a big contract,

335
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 1: but it's actually going to end up being pretty affordable.

336
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: It's not as much money and as bad against the

337
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: cap as people think. Travis Kelsey, I think is very underpaid.

338
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised he signed the contract he did

339
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: a year ago, that extension, and I think the Chiefs

340
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: kind of thought that Tyree Hill would go along with it. Right,

341
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 1: Mahomes didn't get every penny he could have. Kelsey didn't

342
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 1: get every penny he could have. Tyreek Hill didn't get

343
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: the memo. Tyreek Hill didn't care. He absolutely went for

344
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: the most money and going to South Florida, and more

345
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 1: power to him. That's his progative. But I don't love

346
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: it for the Chiefs chances of winning the Super Bowl

347
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. I do appreciate that Andy Reid

348
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: and Brett Beach realized it's not all about twenty twenty two. Meanwhile,

349
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: Dan for the Dolphins. It kind of is a lot

350
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: about twenty twenty two. Right. This is Twoa's third year.

351
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 1: They have to make a decision on his fifth year

352
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: option after this season. They still have two first round

353
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: picks next year, so the Dolphins need to know if

354
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: two is the guy or not at the end of

355
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: this year. If he is and they pick up the

356
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: fifth year option, maybe they extend him whatever. If he's not,

357
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: they decline the option and very possibly draft another quarterback

358
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: next year with one of those two first round picks.

359
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 1: I think the biggest football reason why the Dolphins got

360
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill is to basically and Toron Armstead. They get

361
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: the left tackle Dan, they get maybe the number one

362
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: receiver no excuses. This is a no excuse season for Tuah.

363
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: The Dolphins want to have a definitive answer at the

364
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,959
Speaker 1: end of twenty twenty two on their quarterback. More likely

365
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: to get exposed and exposed as a tricky word to use,

366
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes or Tyreek Hill probably Tyreek Hill. Yeah, I

367
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: think Patrick Mahomes is still gonna put up thirty points

368
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: a game. I think he's still gonna have a big year.

369
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: I don't know that Tyreek Hill with ta Toungo Violoa

370
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 1: is gonna get as many of the deep balls as

371
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: he got. I think one of the reasons why the

372
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:49,719
Speaker 1: Dolphins wanted Tyreek Hill is because they know that Ta

373
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: toungo violo doesn't really produce that many explosive plays. He's

374
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: not mahomes Dan, Yeah, but Tyreek turns those into big

375
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,919
Speaker 1: place a ten yard in and he can take it

376
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: to the house. So he does make He's gonna make

377
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: two a better from the standpoint of You're not gonna

378
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: throw it sixty yards, but I'm gonna take it sixty yards, right,

379
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 1: And that's why they got him. If you look at it, though,

380
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill caught more deep balls from homes and people.

381
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of those were deeper throws down

382
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: the field and he blew past people. The best thing

383
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill has going for him is Mike McDaniel, the

384
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: new head coach in Miami. He knows better than anybody

385
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: in the NFL. He and Kyle Shanahan how to get

386
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: the ball to their run after catch guys in stride

387
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: so they can run after the catch. I mean, you

388
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 1: look at Deebo Samuel even at times they do an

389
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: unbelievable job in San Francisco of getting the ball to

390
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: those guys on the move with some space and then

391
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: they know what to do with it. That's the thing

392
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: that gives Tyreek Hill a chance to still be super productive.

393
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 1: Is I think McDaniel's gonna be able to give him

394
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: the ball a lot on some of those slants. We

395
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: had Chris sims on yesterday and I said, who do

396
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 1: you like better, Tyreek Hill or Javante Adams? You know

397
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: he picked probably Tyreek Hill. Yeah, I think I saw

398
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: it on Twitter. Yeah, what are you making? Let me

399
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,479
Speaker 1: check my script, Dan, Yeah, I sent you. Come on,

400
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: let me see what I'm You're supposed to slam the table,

401
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: it says on the script. I'm supposed to say. No,

402
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: I did not see who Chris Simms picked. Dan, Can

403
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: you tell me he picked Tyreek Hill. Now you slammed

404
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: the table, You slam you didn't like it? No, you

405
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 1: slammed the table. That's he's on the script. Yeah. I

406
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 1: disagree with that, Dan. I disagree with Then you call

407
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: out Chris Simms and you call him a pretty boy.

408
00:22:55,040 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 1: That's what the script says, you know, and all sincerity.

409
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a better receiver than Davante Adams.

410
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: I think he provides more value for a team than

411
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: Davanta Adams. And I'm gonna try to explain that right.

412
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 1: Best route runner in the NFL. I think he's incredible.

413
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: Tyree Kill is someone that dictates defensive coverage every play.

414
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: Adams does a little bit. But Adams is not a

415
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna take it to the house all the time,

416
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: not a guy that puts that much fear. And cornerbacks

417
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 1: don't like going Againstdavanta Adams because he makes them look

418
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: bad and you can get a nice fifteen yard gain whatever.

419
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill just embarrasses people. I mean, he's the fastest

420
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: foot dan. I mean, I'm forty three years old. I

421
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: was in the NFL since two thousand and one. He's

422
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 1: the fastest football player I've ever seen. And I'm not

423
00:23:55,280 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: sure who's close. It's breathtaking. How fast is compared to

424
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: NFL defensive backs. Yeah, I was wondering when you see

425
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: somebody in person. I always bring up this story when

426
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: I was at the Olympics in London and I got

427
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: to see you saying Bolt in person. Oh, it's it's

428
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 1: It's completely different than watching him on TV because you're watching,

429
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: you know, TV stays focused on him. When you're watching,

430
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: it's like it's like cgi you're going, he just moving

431
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: down the track. Watching Tyree Hill in person, it's it's

432
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: just his night and day difference than watching on TV.

433
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: By the way, Dan, I gotta use saying Bolt take

434
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: for you. You're ready. Yeah, I think he's the most

435
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: impressive athlete of all time. And here's why I say that. Okay,

436
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: any NFL guy, Tom Brady, whatever, that's great. But there's

437
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: a million kids that play high school football and like

438
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 1: the whole world right in America. I'm sure there's some

439
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: in the UK or whatever. And then soccer, there's a

440
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: lot of people play soccer. Michael Phelps crazy impressive, but

441
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't try to be swimmers. Everybody

442
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 1: in the whole world, billions of people has run at

443
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: some point, like you know if you're faster or not.

444
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: At some point you had to run Africa, Asia, you run,

445
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: so you know if you're faster or not. Of every

446
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 1: single human being in the world, all of whom knows

447
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: if they're fast or not, you same boat is still

448
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: that much faster than every other human being that to

449
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: me is by far the most impressive physical feat. Forget Lebron,

450
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan. I mean, that's all, that's great, but for

451
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: you same boat to be that much faster than every

452
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 1: other human being on the entire planet is crazy. PAULI

453
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: scripted that you read it quite well. And if everybody

454
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: in the history of mankind lined up at a starting

455
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: line for one meters, Usain Bolt wins, Yes, by a

456
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 1: decent amount. I mean I need a big track to

457
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: get everybody in the history mankind to run the hundred

458
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 1: meter dash. But imagine that there is there any anything

459
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: else where you go, that guy will be the number

460
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: one guy. So the fastest person who's ever walked the earth?

461
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: Is there any other category where you go? If you

462
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: lined up everybody, this person is going to be, you know,

463
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: heads above the rest with everybody in the history of mankind. No,

464
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: because the thing is like any other sport you talk

465
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: about a lot of people have never played basketball, a

466
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: lot of people have never played baseball, like and all.

467
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 1: That's impressive, but literally every human being that's ever lived,

468
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: he's that much faster. It's hard to believe. Actually, right, Like,

469
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 1: there's billions of people with a b billions. And when

470
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 1: you watch him at the Olympics, Dan and you were there,

471
00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: he blows away. He blows away. Then not ain't the

472
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,479
Speaker 1: other fastest dudes? All right? Before I let you go,

473
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: which team had the best month? Dolphins, Broncos, Buccaneers, Browns, Raiders, other?

474
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:21,679
Speaker 1: Which team had the best month? Given to me again? Dolphins, Broncos, Buccaneers, Browns,

475
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: who were introducing Deshaun Watson today, Raiders or other? Denver Broncos.

476
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna say Denver Broncos. I'll tell you

477
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: why they had no quarterback for what was it, six years?

478
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: Seven years? And they're gonna have Russell Wilson more than likely. Oh,

479
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 1: by the way, they're gonna have to pay him so

480
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: much money. It's not funny. I know. I like how

481
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: people go, we got Ross, I go. You still got

482
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: to pay him about fifty million dollars a year. Oh yeah.

483
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: He sees the Deshaun Watson contract. He sees the Aaron

484
00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: Rodgers deal. The Broncos screwed that up, by the way.

485
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 1: They should have gotten him signed when they trade him,

486
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 1: like Davanta Adams, like Tyreek Hill. But that's a story.

487
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: For another day, But it's the Broncos. Look, it's huge

488
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: for the Bucks franchise that Brady's back, I get that right,

489
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: but it's only gonna be a year or two. We

490
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 1: think the Broncos should have Russell Wilson for the next decade.

491
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 1: I mean, and I still believe he's a top ten quarterback.

492
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if we think he's still a

493
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 1: top five quarterback. I think he played better last year

494
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 1: than people realize. To go from not having a top

495
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: twenty quarterback for a good six seven years in Denver

496
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: to having a probable top five guy for a decade

497
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: is a huge, huge swing. I guess you could say

498
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: the same about Cleveland, but I can't. I can't equate

499
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: those two. I can't say what Cleveland did, especially with that,

500
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: I just can't say that that's as good as what

501
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: Denver did because to me, there's still a decent amount

502
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: of unknown with the Deshaun Watson situation. Have a great weekend.

503
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,200

Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. He's Mike MAYONKI. He's the former

522
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: Raider GM and was a longtime NFL analyst draft analyst

523
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 1: for NFL Network and got fired this year. Raiders ball

524
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: out in the playoffs in Cincinnati and they had four

525
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: chances inside the what ten yard line and couldn't capitalize,

526
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: and the Bengals, of course, went on to win the

527
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Mike Mayock joining us on the program, I

528
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: thought about you with these pro days, and we've talked

529
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: before about a pro day, but I'm just curious, as

530
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: a GM or former GM and draft analysts, what should

531
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: we be looking for with these pro days, especially with

532
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: these quarterbacks. I think my whole life of Pro days,

533
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: and that goes back at almost twenty years now when

534
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: you mentioned quarterback stand I really it's less about the accuracy.

535
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: It's less about all these things you think it would

536
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: be about, and for more it's about just personally seeing

537
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: the ball pop out of a quarterback's hands. When you

538
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: watch tape, it's hard sometimes to look at two or

539
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: three quarterbacks together and say who's got more, more warm power,

540
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: more strength, unless it's a Josh Allen, which just jumps

541
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: off the screen. Okay, So when you go to a

542
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: pro day, I'm looking at feet up. I want to

543
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,960
Speaker 1: see their footwork. A lot of these guys have never

544
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,719
Speaker 1: been under center, and being under center doesn't matter as

545
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: much anymore because the NFL's in gun most of the

546
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: time now anyway. But still you know, you go back

547
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: to Bill Walsh. It's all about footwork with quarterbacks. So

548
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: do they have natural fee? How quick are their feet?

549
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: How quick's the released? You know, there's the quarterback Matt

550
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: Carroll from Old Miss. When you watch his tape, it

551
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: screams quickness from the body, from the feet up. He's

552
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: got arm quickness, he's got foot quickness, he's got twitch,

553
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: he's got accuracy. I want to see that in person,

554
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: Malik Willis. I watched that Pro Day on television the

555
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: other day, and I agree with Daniel Jeremiah. The first

556
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: thing that caught me and I saw it on tape,

557
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 1: but I wanted to see more of it. He wore

558
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: shorts right, and you could see how powerful his lower

559
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 1: body was, Like you think you see that on tape,

560
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: but his lower body. And to me, I don't know

561
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 1: if you how much of a baseball guy you are.

562
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: But I used to love Nolan Ryan right when I

563
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: was a kid. I used to love what and I

564
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: did some pitching and I played a lot of I

565
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 1: played college baseball and it was always about the ground up.

566
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: And with a quarterback, it's a lot of it's about

567
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: the ground up. Malik Willis's lower body. I mean you

568
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: just sit there go Wow. That reinforces everything I saw

569
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: on tape. It confirms it. So you look for I

570
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: really want from a quarterback. I want to see the

571
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: pop from a defensive end or a corner. I want

572
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: to see him come out a defensive end. I want

573
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: to see his explosion coming out of a stance, from

574
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 1: a corner, change the direction. You can see things live

575
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: when you're five yards away from the kid that you

576
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: can't really see one tape. You know what stood out

577
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 1: for me watching Willis was his personality. Yeah, and I

578
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: don't know how important that is looking at it as

579
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 1: a scout, an analyst or a GM, but man, that

580
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: stuff is contagious and it looked like he loved playing football.

581
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: And maybe I'm reading too much into it. Michael, I

582
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: don't think you are in and I think at that

583
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: position and I think that's the hardest position in all

584
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: of sports. But I think one of the things you

585
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: have to have is leadership, okay, and natural leadership stuff

586
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 1: that you're not faking like. I'll give you an example.

587
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota got to know him in the last couple

588
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: of years. Really cool because Marcus is not that outgoing

589
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: scream and yell. He's a quiet individual, but he's got confidence,

590
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 1: he's got quiet swag, and when you get in the game,

591
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: you see some of that fire come out. There's different

592
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: kinds of leadership. I think what you saw with Malik

593
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 1: willis who was just a natural extroverb and that's really cool.

594
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: What I'd want to know, again, I wasn't there. I

595
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,439
Speaker 1: was watching it on TV with you, and I've never

596
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 1: met him. What I'd want to do is get in

597
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: a room with him and spend some time with him

598
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: and see how that translates one on one, talk to

599
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: the people that know him best. It certainly looks like

600
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 1: he's a leader. I love the fact. Did you see

601
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,839
Speaker 1: the tape for the video from the Senior Bowl when

602
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: he was handing out closed to a homeless guy? Right, So,

603
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: all the stuff, all the intangibles that are so important

604
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: in that position, I'd want to know more about and

605
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: confirm because it's certainly looks like he checks all those boxes,

606
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: and to me that elevates him a little bit. But

607
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: I wonder, and you know, it's the eye of the

608
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: beholder that somebody loves something that somebody else is going

609
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: to say I'm not going to take him that high.

610
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,919
Speaker 1: It feels like Detroit could go in at number two

611
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,959
Speaker 1: at Malik Willis. Should they? Yeah? I think the old

612
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: school argument there, and it's intriguing, is look at it

613
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: this way. How many franchise quarterbacks from the NFL today,

614
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,760
Speaker 1: seven or eight? Maybe Okay, they can put a team

615
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: on their back and go in a super Bowl. And

616
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 1: maybe there's another five, six, seven that you can win

617
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: a super Bowl with. Okay, that's not even half the

618
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: league when you add it up. So if you don't

619
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,919
Speaker 1: have one of those guys, you don't have a chance. Right,

620
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,320
Speaker 1: that's the preface. I used to have conversations with coaches

621
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: all the time and scouts about, Look, if you value

622
00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,400
Speaker 1: Malik Willis on your board, if he's the fourteen best

623
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 1: player on the board, you technically should have no business

624
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: taken him at two. However, if you really believe he's

625
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: the guy, Yeah, what does it matter where you're talking? Yeah? Well,

626
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: I wonder about this that when does that quarterback get

627
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: to the point where you go, this is who he's

628
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 1: going to be? Is it second? Third year, fourth year,

629
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 1: fifth year? Because I'm trying to figure out trying to

630
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 1: figure out Baker Mayfield that like, what happens next with

631
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:34,719
Speaker 1: those two guys? How would you assess that of you know,

632
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: Baker doesn't have a job and to it, you know,

633
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 1: just got Tyreek, so he better be great this year.

634
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:46,240
Speaker 1: But it's this a year for Tuah. It's a great question.

635
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: What I learned over the last few years is that

636
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: really matters. Okay, And by definition, if you're a top

637
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 1: five draft pick, you're typically going to a poor football team.

638
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:04,359
Speaker 1: You know, so fit matters. Who's your offensive coordinator, who's

639
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 1: your quarterback coach? Do you fit with what they're doing?

640
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: What are they complimenting you with? What are they putting

641
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: around you? Can you run the football? What's your offensive

642
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 1: line look like? There's so many different things that go

643
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: into that. And that's why with young quarterbacks, I like

644
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 1: to look at it like, okay, when they're ready to

645
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,840
Speaker 1: play and they're all different. Like I remember Carson Wentz

646
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: when he came out North Dakota State, all that kind

647
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: of stuff. People were saying to me when I was

648
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: the NFL Networks draft guy. You know, well, can he

649
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: start Week one? And I say that doesn't matter, doesn't matter.

650
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 1: When he's ready to start, he will whether it's week one,

651
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: week eate or year or two. Okay, but you can't

652
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,719
Speaker 1: do to Carson Wentz or any talented young quarterback what

653
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,839
Speaker 1: happened to Joey Harrington or Derek Carr's brother. You can't

654
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: just throw them in there and let them get the

655
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: crap beat out of him for two or three years.

656
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,840
Speaker 1: That doesn't that's counterintuitive. That's a long way of saying that.

657
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: I think every quarterbacks a little bit differently different. They're

658
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 1: ready at different levels, both physically, emotionally and mentally. I

659
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: think at this point now you're gonna know, you know,

660
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: what is it year three for Twah, You're gonna know

661
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: this year whether or not he can be in that

662
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: first or second group of quarterbacks. And Baker Mayfield, you know,

663
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: two years ago they were a playoff team. You know,

664
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: he played pretty well. I think there was a lot

665
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: of stuff going on in that building this year and

666
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: obviously they want him out of the building and he

667
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 1: feels the same way. So my mind on Baker's kind

668
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: of open. If it's a different kind of fit, if

669
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: he gets in the right building, I think he can play.

670
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,800
Speaker 1: Talking to Mike mayonk the former Raider GM former NFL

671
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: Network draft analysts, Which side of the Tyreek Hill trade

672
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 1: d you like, Kansas City or Miami? I find it

673
00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 1: so intriguing on so many different levels, Dan, And you know,

674
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: as a former AFC West general manager who's tried to

675
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,439
Speaker 1: chase Tyreeke and Kansas City for the last three years.

676
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 1: I mean, these sons and Guns have won six consecutive

677
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: divisions and they've been in the AFC Championship Game four

678
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: years in a row. And so the question you ask yourself,

679
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,760
Speaker 1: or at least I do. When I saw the trade,

680
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 1: it's right away I was like, does that make them

681
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: less dynamical on offense? And it probably does. Now Mikole

682
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,239
Speaker 1: Hardman is within a whisper of being just as explosive

683
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: as Tyreek. They signed Juju, they signed Valdez Scantling. I

684
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: trust Andy Reid, I trust Patrick Mahomes. So will they

685
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: be a little less explosive. Probably, But the rest of

686
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: the AFC West, which is fascinating with that arms race,

687
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: they're all going, hey, there's an opening here, there's a

688
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: little bit of an opening year, and they've all geared up.

689
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: Now the Miami side of it is, you know, they

690
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: drafted that kid last year Waddle and you want to

691
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: talk about explosive, That son of a gun is explosive.

692
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: So that goes back to what I said a minute

693
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: ago about too, is that you know he's got explosive weapons.

694
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 1: If their offensive line can play at a level they

695
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: need him to, I think I mean that they can

696
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 1: be a really good football So I'm not I think

697
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: both sides of this thing is intriguing. When people come

698
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 1: up and ask why are you not the Raider GM

699
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,839
Speaker 1: any longer? How do you answer them? I liked how

700
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: you warmed up before you warmed me up, so I

701
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: got it out. Yes I did. That was good. That

702
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: was a veteran move. How do I say that again?

703
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 1: How do I respond? Why are you no longer the

704
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: Raiders GM? I think when I got there, there were

705
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: a four and twelve team, and then we went seven

706
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: to nine, eight and eight and ten and seven, and

707
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: we were on the nine yard line in the playoffs

708
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: with thirty five seconds left with four shots to tie Cincinnati,

709
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: who went to the Super Bowl, Which kind of shows

710
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 1: you how close the NFL is, Right, Why am I

711
00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: not that? I think at the end of the day, Dan,

712
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: it's all about the owner has final say, and I

713
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,799
Speaker 1: think Mark Davis has a good heart. I like Mark

714
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: Davis personally, and at the end of the day, he

715
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,399
Speaker 1: decided that me and Rich Bisacci didn't get it done

716
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: at the level he wanted, or that he felt like

717
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,320
Speaker 1: a couple other guys could get it done at a

718
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: higher level going forward. And I have to respect that

719
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: because he's the boss. But if you beat Cincinnati, are

720
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 1: you still the GM. I don't know the answer to that.

721
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: I mean, you'd have to get Mark. Last time you

722
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 1: talked to John Gruden. We text back and forth occasionally,

723
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: and he called me after I got fired. So what's

724
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: the future. I'm kind of excited. You know, I'm an

725
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: old guy, and it's good to be excited. And I've

726
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 1: never been afraid of a challenge, so I'm kind of imatch.

727
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: I watched tape every morning. The challenge for me, Dan

728
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: is that, you know, if I watch tape from seven

729
00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 1: to ten, m go get a workout for an hour

730
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 1: and a half. It's noon and now I've got nothing

731
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:27,160
Speaker 1: to do. And I'm not used to that. That sounds

732
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: like me, Mike. I'm done at noon and then I

733
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 1: got nothing to do. I'm not used to that. And

734
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 1: I'm you know, going one hundred miles an hour back

735
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 1: to the speed limit is hard. But what I'm trying

736
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: to do is I'm trying to keep the balls up

737
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: in the air. I've had some opportunities good NFL teams.

738
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 1: I've had some of my television people call me. I

739
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 1: kind of look at this Dan like at age sixty three,

740
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: I know me and I need to be around football.

741
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 1: But whether it's an NFL team, whether it's doing television

742
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: or in all honesty, I could go coach the defensive

743
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 1: backs at Hafiford School right down the street and be

744
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 1: really happy. So I'm just trying to keep it all

745
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 1: up in the air. And when the right opportunity comes,

746
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 1: I think I'll know. Can we have your Raiders gear?

747
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,040
Speaker 1: You know what I did with it? You'll get a

748
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: kick out of this. I took about ninety percent of

749
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: it before we left Vegas and I drove down to

750
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: the local fire station and I knocked on the door.

751
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 1: I didn't know anybody, just knocked on the door, and

752
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 1: this this fireman answered the door, and I said, listen,

753
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: it might sound silly, but I just get fired. As

754
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,319
Speaker 1: the Raiders GM and I had two huge bags with

755
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 1: me like like trash bags. I said, I got all

756
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 1: this brand new gear and I think some of you

757
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,840
Speaker 1: guys might like it, or you can give it to

758
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 1: the community, but I don't need it anymore. And the

759
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,400
