WEBVTT - Hour 3 - Larry Scott (05-12-20) 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:06.200 Sports Radio Final Hour. On this Tuesday, Dan and the 0:00:06.280 --> 0:00:10.040 Dane Stan Patrick Show chat Row trying to come up 0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:13.800 with a T shirt, and we gave them until the 0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:16.240 end of this week to vote on a T shirt. 0:00:16.560 --> 0:00:19.959 I believe there's ten different T shirts. I just went 0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:23.800 back into the control room and I talked to Tyler, 0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:26.439 the moderator who moderates the chat room, and he said, 0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:31.080 Mario's in the crosshairs because Mario apparently put ten T 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.239 shirts up, but he also put two T shirts up 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:37.279 that are basically the same T shirt. It's just a 0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:41.519 different font style. So Mario screwed up the chat row 0:00:41.920 --> 0:00:46.000 T shirt competition. Yes, eaton. Well, here's the thing. I mean, 0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:49.239 no matter what Mario did, something was going to be 0:00:49.240 --> 0:00:52.360 wrong with it, true, right, And that's not really a 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:56.760 statement of Mario, but more just people's sort of expectations 0:00:56.800 --> 0:01:00.000 for things, because if they're say, there was sixteen submission 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.240 and ten of them made it, there's gonna be some 0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.360 people that are upset. Yeah, but Mario put up basically 0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:09.559 the same T shirt. Okay, I know, ye have Mario's 0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:12.039 back there, Seaton, He's that stuffing the ballot box or 0:01:12.120 --> 0:01:13.960 splitting the vote, because if the same T shirt is 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:16.319 up there twice, no, no, he just screwed up, so 0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:19.920 we have to take one down. Well, actually those votes 0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.520 will probably cancel each other out since they're basically the 0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:27.720 same T shirts. So oh god, all right, so vote 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:30.120 on it by Friday. We'll come up with the T 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.720 shirt for chat Row. Tyler. I went back there, and 0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:35.560 you know, Tyler is he can't say a mean thing 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:38.640 about anybody. And you know, the big german goes, you 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:40.319 gonna tell him, You're gonna tell him, and I go 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:43.120 what he goes, I can't tell you, and then the 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:46.600 big german goes, oh, just tell him. Mario put up 0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:49.280 the same T shirt, just a different version of the 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:52.240 same T shirt, and he's getting killed. He's getting killed 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:54.560 on chat Row. But I don't know if it's it's 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:58.040 his fault. And I go Mark, I said, Tyler, don't 0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:00.280 worry about it. I said, you know, I'm gonna handle 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.120 it with the professionalism you've come to expect on this program. 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.960 And that's why we called out Mario for screwing up again. 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.320 Welcome to the Final Hour. We'll talk to the PAC 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:13.400 twelve Commissioner Larry Scott will join us coming up. Major 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:16.519 League Baseball is sending a proposal to the Players Association 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:20.799 today for restarting sometime in July, and a lot of 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.040 things still up in the air health wise, but baseball 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:28.040 has another hurdle. The proposal reportedly includes a fifty fifty 0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:31.000 rev share for players and owners, and that translates to 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:35.560 a salary cap, which baseball does not have. So you 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:39.079 would think that this one season you'd be able to 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:40.960 come up with some kind of solution so you could 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:43.720 just come back and play baseball. If you know the 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:47.480 history of Major League Baseball and its Players Association, it's union. 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:51.680 It is non simple. I was around this with a 0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:57.639 couple of lockouts, strikes and dealing with the Baseball Players Union. Nightmare. 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:02.160 But that's what they're job was and is is to 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:09.480 protect their players, dealing with Donald fear. But this is 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:12.200 what they did. They were you know, Marvin Miller created 0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:15.959 the Players Association, the strength in that union. He should 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:19.960 be in the Hall of Fame posthumous league. But you 0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:21.720 know that this is what they do. It's going to 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:24.040 be the players versus the owners about how much money 0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.040 you're going to get paid. I know it doesn't look 0:03:26.040 --> 0:03:28.880 good given what's going on and people out of work, 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:32.680 but you know, the players want to get paid, and 0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.120 we always talk about the players taking a pay cut. 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.400 You know, the owners you might have to take a 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:41.160 pay cut here too. But it doesn't look good. But 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:44.640 you know these financial situations, Baseball makes a lot of 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:46.320 money at the gate, and there's no fans, they're going 0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:48.680 to be there, and as much as we want to 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:50.680 watch baseball and other sports, we want to know that 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:53.640 we're going to be safe when we go there. There's hurdles. 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.320 There's safety hurdles, and then there's financial hurdles that baseball 0:03:57.360 --> 0:03:59.240 is going to have to navigate and it's not going 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:02.120 to be easy. McLevin poll question, are we gonna change 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:06.160 it up? Since Patrick Mahomes was the runaway winner? Yeah, 0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.080 the first two hours was who will be the MVP? 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.600 Was Mahomes and Jackson. I know you're answer to this question, 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:13.640 but I want to ask you. For a baseball baseball 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:16.159 has an eighty two games schedule, would you put an 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:21.360 asterisk next to the champion? And I know you said 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:24.320 that for MBA that it probably doesn't need an asteris, 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:26.080 and I agree. I don't think it needs an asterisk. 0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:32.640 I given what's happening this year. No, I'm fine if 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:34.960 we just say that, Hey, you want it in the 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:42.880 coronavirus year, the pandemic year. I mean, I'm okay with it. 0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:47.640 It's now. The Astros have an asterisk by that. In 0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.800 my opinion, they have an asterisk by that. Red Sox don't, 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:54.800 but the Astros do. If Lebron wins the title this year, 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.320 it's gonna count as his fourth title, not his you know, 0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:02.200 three and a half, it'll be a fourth title. No 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.239 asterisk by that. If you're playing eight, if you're playing 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:09.440 eighty two and they're playing eighty two, then it's all 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:12.359 the same. It's gonna be how you manage your pitching staff, 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:15.240 like all these different things. This is a unique situation. 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:18.560 If that's the case, then I'd rather you didn't have 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:20.880 a champion than to have a champion and have an 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.120 asterisk by it. I don't think that's fair to the 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:26.640 team that wins. Everybody has a level playing field. You're 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:28.760 going to be dealing with the same scenarios. For the 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:33.800 most part. Travel is going to be limited. I'm okay 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:35.760 if you don't have an asterisk I think we'll have 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:40.839 a footnote, and that's different than an asterisk. And if 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:44.080 you look at this, the season itself gets the asterisk, 0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:50.680 not the team, because that's different. Yeah, I mclovin, I 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.239 know you mentioned the baseball strike. Nobody puts an asterisk 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.279 next to eighty one when the Dodgers won because my 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:59.240 Phillies blew it in the playoffs that year. Nobody. I'm 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:05.560 fine with it. Yeah, two got the advantage there, no one. Yeah, 0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:10.120 so this season gets the asterisk, not the team. And 0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:14.119 maybe that's semantics, but no, I I know what's gonna happen. 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.800 If the Lakers win, You're gonna have these critics of 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:21.120 Lebron saying, yeah, well went a full season there, that's 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.920 not really four titles for you. That's nonsense, all right. 0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:28.680 Uh So I teased that we were gonna pick. We're 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:33.720 gonna have a snake draft for NFL MVP. What is 0:06:33.760 --> 0:06:37.039 the order here? You pick? I pick? Do you want 0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:41.880 to go first or last? Uh? It? Well, do I 0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:44.560 have to go first or last? I'll go last. I 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:48.080 don't care. I mean, I got a number between one 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:57.440 and fifty, Paulie twenty four, that's the number I was 0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:07.680 gonna take Fritzie thirty seven, thirty seven, McLevin twelve twelve, Seaton, uh, 0:07:07.720 --> 0:07:13.520 twenty three, twenty three. Now you got to pick another one? Okay, 0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:19.720 seven seven? It is? How about that? Didn't did you 0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:21.480 write it down or he's just in your head? No? 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:24.280 Because I thought, well, nobody's closed. Well did you see 0:07:24.280 --> 0:07:26.800 how long this is gonna take? Yes? I went yes, seven, Right, 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:29.800 let's have a number of draft set. It could have 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:31.760 been between one and fifty and Seaton could have said 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:37.360 fifty two, and I said, you're right, yes, Um, it's Seaton, mclovin, Paulie, 0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:42.280 then Fritzie, Seaton, and then me. All right, see your 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:48.520 your first pick is Patrick Mahomes. Oh wow, that's incredible man, 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:53.160 How did you do that? Yeah? Yeah, all right mclovin. 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:56.520 My pick is Tom Brady, and I'm calling it to 0:07:56.600 --> 0:07:59.440 Mike Evans effect if he could make Johnny Manzela Heisman winner, 0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.600 he can Tom Brady and MVP again. All right, Polly 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:10.680 Ester Carson Wentz all right, fritzl Ja, I think I'm 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.640 gonna steal one of yours to Shawn Watson. All right, 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:17.680 I'm gonna take Russell Wilson Junior the third and a 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:24.240 motivated Aaron Rodgers. He's really motivated because they drafted Jordan Love. 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:27.520 Chip on the shoulder. Yeah, that'll It's hard to throw 0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:29.800 with a chip on your shoulder. I just say him. 0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:34.840 Who's next, Fritzy? Yeah, I'm gonna grab Drew Brees. I 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.400 think he still has something to prove it and want 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:39.800 to get one more super bowler. Thank you to Who's next? 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:47.400 Polly Baker Mayfield? Yeah, I like McLeman I go way 0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:50.320 off the board, Teddy Bridgewater because a Joe Brady as 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:55.120 his coordinator. And Carolina God, Saucy. That's not that's saucy. 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.439 It's always someone that out of the Palu like that. No, 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:01.480 that's saucy. I mean that's crazy. A team. Team's not 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:06.000 any good. That's a problem. I will say this though, 0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:10.680 you did take a chance, and I like that. Seeton O'Connor. 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:13.640 With the last pick in the NFL draft, anybody take 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:17.040 Lamar Jackson still on the board. Ye, all right, I'm 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:20.800 taking him. That's it. I'm done, first and last pick. 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:23.880 I got the third round. No, no two, you said 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:29.480 two rounds. No, we're done. I'm good. Two A Tonga 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:32.000 Blo agree to his deal. Is he the first to 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.120 agree to his deal? A rookie deal that was kind 0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:39.600 of quick about his parents? And Escalade? Actually, his parents 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:46.440 agreed to the deal careful so to his parents said, 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.600 we accepted to have found out at the same time 0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:53.040 we did. And two he's probably watching the bottom line. 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:57.200 And two a tongablo he signed his rookie deal. And Escalade, 0:09:57.640 --> 0:10:00.760 Oh wait, there you go, u On. You signed with 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.120 the Dolphins and you bought your mom and Escala his 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:06.960 parents surprised him by giving them. He did look like 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:13.360 he was more surprised than that. And his Jersey sales 0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:17.760 are second I think behind Tom Brady. Yeah. McClellan, I'm 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:20.160 not confused though. I mean, he comes from Alabama. Is 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:23.920 there enough room in his garage from multiple escalators? Wow? Wait? 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:27.400 What wait? What are you doing? I would not you 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:29.360 did separate that from Dan Patrick that way? I know 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.200 where did that come from? It just gave them one 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:35.719 of his extra escalators. McClean, Where did that come from? 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:38.480 A certain fan basis you don't want to go with well, 0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:40.559 you just think of fancy cars that you immediately think 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:44.040 of college recruitment and the SMU stuff, and you, yeah, 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.520 you usually buy a house for somebody, not a car. 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:52.240 Remember when I came back from I think I was. 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.520 I was on the road with hooting the Blowfish this 0:10:56.640 --> 0:11:01.400 past year, and I remember we were talking to some people. 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:04.720 They were going to a football game, and they told 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:08.200 us that a certain former player used to pull up 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:11.000 to the restaurant and just park his car. There was 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:13.760 no parking in front. He would just park his car 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.720 in front of this restaurant and he would just he 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:21.360 would leave it running, and then he like he basically 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:25.240 did whatever he wanted to do. Had this beautiful car 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:29.600 in school colors. Everybody knew it was his car. I 0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:31.800 don't need to say any names, but yeah, it was 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:33.520 just like he pulled up and everybody knew that it 0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:35.760 was his car. It might had a vanity license plate too, 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.240 with his jersey number. Yeah, mcklevin, did you have a 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:40.200 college teammate who got a car? I mean he got 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:43.080 a used car. That's how bad my college basketball team was. 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:47.520 Like one of the guys, the freshman who came in, 0:11:47.760 --> 0:11:54.680 he got a used car. These are probably the cars 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:57.839 that the Kentucky basketball players got. And then they moved 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:00.440 to their second car, and then maybe there was just 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:05.240 a like a secondary car lot that led to you know, 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:09.000 basketball recruits like the Kentucky basketball players probably got nice cars. 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:11.960 Where I went to school at Eastern Kentucky. I remember 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.520 that one of these guys showed up. It was like 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:20.000 a money a used Monty money Carlo. Oh, we were 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:24.439 a big time there. Tommy and Alabama joins us. Hey, Tommy, 0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:35.319 what do you have for me? Hey? Tom Hey, tom 0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:42.000 oh Hey Tom. Brian and Texas joins us, Danett Hi, 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.240 Brian tyther Hey. I was just going to comment on 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:49.720 the value of the Jordans tennis shoes, okay, and how 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:53.480 Seaton said the k Cobain guitar went for like around 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:57.640 a million dollars. Well, you know that whenever the artist 0:12:57.720 --> 0:13:02.600 or whoever died about you, that's just skyrockets. So if 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:07.240 you bought those Jordan's shoes now age dependent dot dot 0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:12.520 do the math, you could easily double, maybe triple your investment. Yeah, 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:15.920 kind of a morbid thought though, thank you. Ryan. Hey, 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:18.840 Let's make an investment and then wait for Michael Jordan 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.280 to die. You know people will do that in the 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:25.440 art world. They will buy art with somebody who gets 0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.280 up there in age knowing that when they die that 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:33.400 your investment probably doubles. But it's kind of a weird 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:37.520 science they have of following like how old is is he? 0:13:37.600 --> 0:13:41.079 In good health? They're going, oh, all right, that's kind 0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:43.240 of weird. Peter and Virginia joins us, Hey, Pete, what 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:46.560 do you have for me today? Well, gentlemen, good morning, 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:51.640 good afternoon, six four A frisky two seventy. I have 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:55.200 a different take on this whole Lebron asterix thing. Yeah, 0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:59.240 what if Kevin Durant comes back, Kyrie comes back and 0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:03.200 they win the championship when Kevin Durant wasn't even supposed 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:06.680 to play this season? Do they get an asterisk because 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:09.280 the season got extended? But I do think if it 0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:13.440 does come back and everybody is healthy, it'll be a 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:16.560 great end to the basketball season. I'll shut up and listen, 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:19.920 all right, thank you, Peter. Kevin Durant's not coming back 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:26.680 to play, just letting you know he's not coming back Kyrie. Okay, Kevin, No, 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:31.080 not gonna happen. I don't the season gets the asterisk, 0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:35.640 not the team whoever wins. I'm fine with that because 0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:38.080 who got an advantage here? Now you could say, well, 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:41.880 Brooklyn got an advantage because you know that the season 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:45.160 continues and Kevin Durant has been out this whole time. 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:47.960 All right, if that was the case, then maybe you 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:49.720 would look at that and go, all right, we'll put 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:53.040 an asterisk by it because they benefited from the season, 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.520 not you know, taking place in Kevin Durant wasn't playing, 0:14:57.440 --> 0:15:01.000 but Kevin Durant's not coming back. Yeah, Paul, I have 0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:04.960 a wild MVP stat for you. You want it, well, 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:10.040 it's saucy. Yeah. Russell Wilson has never received a single 0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:13.920 MVP vote during his career, not one in seven years. 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:16.560 He will this year. There's a lot of people who 0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:19.080 have gotten votes. His teammate Bobby Wagner got a vote, 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:22.840 Dak Prescott, Carson Wentz, rom Tony Dungee voted for Bobby Wagner. 0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:27.640 I think for MVP, I think so. Yeah. I was 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:30.640 going to ask you how many times has Russ finished 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:32.480 in the top five for the MVPI. I don't think 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.960 he's ever finished in anything not first place votes. I 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.520 don't second, third place now we're checking the voting, but 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:45.400 never gotten a first place vote. Wow, yeah, mclen even 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:48.160 last year, remember everybody had him in second for MVP. 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.560 Right behind Lamar. I think we talked about it. He 0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:52.800 had an amazing year. I thought he was in the 0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:56.400 MVP combot big time. Last Well, what happened is Russ 0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.480 was great and then Lamar took over, and then he 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:02.920 left everybody in his wake. I think that's what happened. 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:07.360 I am shocked that. I think it could be geographical 0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:11.600 bias with Russ, you know, being in Seattle, and you know, 0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:13.800 every time we watch a game there, we're like, oh, 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:16.200 what great atmosphere, and then you sort of forget about 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:19.560 the Seahawks. If they were in a in a bigger 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:22.240 media market, then maybe Russ would get If he was 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:24.880 playing in LA doing what he's doing, then I think 0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:27.320 it would be different. But you know, he might go 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:32.680 his entire career of you know, being underrated. He's gonna 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:35.800 be a Hall of Famer. But I find that amazing 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:39.800 that he hasn't received a first place MVP vote unless 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:45.320 you got, well, Mahomes was unanimus, what wasn't he? I 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:48.360 think both Lamar and Mahomes may be un Yeah, well 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:51.440 that'll hurt. That'll hurt you when it comes to get 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:58.120 an MVP vote. Maybe maybe maybe he gets he gets 0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:02.160 some love this year maybe, yeah, yes, Jackson received every 0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.760 vote and was a second straight you n asked whether 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:12.200 and the second ever? Okay, but never a vote. That's 0:17:12.240 --> 0:17:15.240 pretty amazing. Ye. Well, it sounds like they don't have 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:18.080 second place votes, so that's sort of by by nature 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.840 kind of screws up the whole thing. But having one 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:24.440 first place vote, like I'm just saying, a first place 0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:28.080 vote PAULI was talking about, he hasn't received any consideration there, 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:31.280 but I'd like to know has he ever? You know, 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:34.199 all those other years when he had other MVPs, he 0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:37.240 didn't even get one vote. But how many people vote 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:41.800 on the MVPI. I have fifty? Okay, so those are 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:44.840 the pro football writers. Yeah, it's usually out of fifty 0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:47.399 votes basically. Okay, it's like mclevitsat's all or nothing. You 0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:53.399 either get MVP votter you don't. Man, All right, well, 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:55.840 that's our campaign, is to get Russell and Wilson June 0:17:56.000 --> 0:18:00.679 the third and MVP. That guy caught a brain. All right, 0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:02.399 We'll take a break. We'll talk to the Commissioner of 0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:05.520 the PAC twelve, Larry Scott. He'll join us coming up next. 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.040 It's nineteen after the hour This is the Dan Patrick Show. 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:11.560 Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast.

So we're Mike Vrabel My 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:33.520 Titans will join us coming up tomorrow on the program. 0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:36.160 He's Larry Scott, the PAC twelve commissioner, which I believe 0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:39.520 he's been in that office since two thousand and nine, 0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:41.959 kind enough to join us. Good morning, commissioner. How are you. 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:45.080 I'm doing well, Dan, Good to be with you. Where 0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:47.880 do we stand with what is real and not real? 0:18:47.880 --> 0:18:51.320 As far as contingency plans of and the reason why 0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:54.160 I say this, I preface this. The NFL owners were 0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:58.520 told don't talk about hypotheticals. Have you know? Are you 0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:02.280 telling coaches let's not have hypotheticals with the PAC twelve 0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:07.240 and what we can think will be football in the fall. 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:10.200 We we just got out of a week of meetings 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:12.520 with our football coaches and one of the key things 0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:15.080 we were discussing is scenario planning. I think it's top 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:18.040 of mind for everyone. Yeah, we are. We are planning 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:22.560 a full season, planning to start on time, but you know, 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:26.360 it's so unpredictable what's going to happen, and so we're 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:28.119 spending a lot of time not only within our league 0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:30.480 but with our peers and the other conferences think about 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.520 what is planned. BCD and he looked like, I mean, 0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:38.080 everyone is feeling some optimism at the moment. Plan A 0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:40.800 for sure is starting the season on time, getting a 0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:45.320 full season, and that's what we're working toward. But for sure, 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:50.160 we've discussed other other options and we'll be ready if 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:51.840 we need to move to this. How often do you 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:55.280 talk to the other commissioners, Well, we've actually been on 0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:59.240 the phone every morning morning for me on the West coast. 0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:03.960 Since this really started escalating back in March and we 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:08.680 had a shut down our basketball tournaments, we all jumped 0:20:08.720 --> 0:20:11.360 into coordinating what we were going to do is we 0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:15.320 realized this pandemic was escalating quickly and it could impact 0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:19.119 our basketball tournament, so we started a process. That second 0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:21.760 week in March, I was in Las Vegas at our 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:24.960 basketball tournament there and we were all trying to calibrate 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:27.440 and in a period of twenty four hours, it's surreal. 0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:31.160 We went from Okay, we're starting our tournaments on time 0:20:31.640 --> 0:20:34.520 on Tuesday, I think we may get through this till 0:20:34.600 --> 0:20:37.200 later in the day we connected and say we might 0:20:37.240 --> 0:20:40.320 have to, you know, eliminate fans, to the next morning 0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:43.760 all deciding we're canceling our tournaments completely. That was after 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:46.280 we saw what happened to route to go there the 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:49.680 night before. I woke up that next morning on Wednesday, 0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:52.639 having spoke of my presidents and athletics directors, said to 0:20:52.680 --> 0:20:55.479 my fellow commissioners, could you imagine if that happened at 0:20:55.520 --> 0:20:58.679 a college basketball tournament? You saw one of our student 0:20:58.680 --> 0:21:02.600 athletes kind of visit visibly ill and kind of escorted 0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:05.240 off course, we've got a responsibility to shut this down 0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:09.159 right now. Since that time, every single weekday we've been 0:21:09.200 --> 0:21:13.160 on a phone call talking about plethora of issues we've 0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:16.359 had to deal with in terms of the shutdown. Now, 0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:18.879 how are we dealing with our student athletes in a 0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:22.520 virtual world and what does coming back look like? On 0:21:22.960 --> 0:21:25.960 what pace? And in college you know, there's not one 0:21:26.440 --> 0:21:29.680 decision maker, especially when it comes to football. We all 0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:33.000 work together on the college football playoff, the season, non 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:36.879 conference games, bowls, neutral side games, so you know it 0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:40.200 requires an extraordinary level of coordination. If a Pac twelve 0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:43.880 school can have students on campus, can they play football. 0:21:45.880 --> 0:21:48.960 I don't believe we're going to play football if students 0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:51.280 can't be brought back safely to campus. I don't think 0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:54.040 we're going to treat student athletes or football players as 0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:56.560 some special class. I don't think we've got the ability 0:21:56.600 --> 0:21:58.639 to quarantine them and put them in a bubble the 0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:02.400 way some pro sports might. Now, what does students coming 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:05.159 back to campus mean? It might mean different things for 0:22:05.240 --> 0:22:06.919 different schools. I've been in touch with all of our 0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:10.080 university presidents and they're all working through their own scenarios. 0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:12.920 But it's not going to be the new normal. Is 0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:14.840 not going to be the old normal. I think there's 0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:18.560 going to be hybrid situations in all likelihood in terms 0:22:18.600 --> 0:22:21.440 of class size. Maybe it's not all students coming back 0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:23.679 at once, but I do believe student athletes will be 0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:26.640 amongst the earliest groups to be allowed to come back. 0:22:27.160 --> 0:22:28.800 What I was told a couple of weeks ago by 0:22:28.800 --> 0:22:31.520 a source was that you were going to see football 0:22:31.600 --> 0:22:33.760 when it does come back that the conferences are just 0:22:34.080 --> 0:22:36.439 going to be playing conference games and it was probably 0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:38.400 going to be a ten game schedule. Now you might 0:22:38.480 --> 0:22:42.960 get one outlier where Ohio State plays Ohio University or 0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:46.520 something that's regional there. How does that jibe with what 0:22:46.560 --> 0:22:50.120 you've been told? Well, I can tell you anyone that's 0:22:50.160 --> 0:22:52.440 telling you now sitting here in the middle of May 0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:54.240 what it's going to be in there giving you the 0:22:54.240 --> 0:22:57.520 inside scoop isn't a very good source because I'm the 0:22:57.560 --> 0:23:00.359 one having the conversations with our peer conferences and presence 0:23:00.359 --> 0:23:02.800 and we don't know. But has that been discussed Just 0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:06.800 what I told you, Absolutely, that's that's you know, if 0:23:06.800 --> 0:23:10.520 we can't play a full season and get the full 0:23:10.560 --> 0:23:13.760 twelve weeks plus the postseason, that would be a natural 0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:18.359 abbreviated season. Okay, moved the conference only for us that 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.119 would be nine games. And yes, as you know, as 0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:23.920 I mentioned, we got multiple scenarios. That's not what we're 0:23:23.920 --> 0:23:25.879 planning on, but that's always an option that would that 0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:28.760 would be the easiest default option, right, That's what you 0:23:28.800 --> 0:23:31.000 know schools can control, and frankly that's the priority on 0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:33.760
