We're gonna 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,959 Speaker 1: bring back an interview that we did in twenty fourteen 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: with Vin Scully. We were fortunate to have him on 5 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 1: three times in the last ten years. He passed away 6 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: last night at the age of ninety four. Al Michaels 7 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: joined us in an hour from now to reminisce. Al 8 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: wanted to be like Vin Scully as so many announcers 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: did and do, and he'll join us to reminisce. Coming up. 10 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: Stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America, 11 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: the official trading cards to the Dan Patrick Show. I 12 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: will get to more of your phone calls. I know 13 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people want to share their stories about 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: Vin Scully. The great actor Brian Cranston, he just sent 15 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: in an email. He wasn't available. He's doing a shoot 16 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 1: New Orleans, and I don't think emotionally he was ready 17 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: to talk about this, but he did write something beautiful 18 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: about Vin Scully and growing up listening to Vin Scully. 19 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna put that on the newsletter. If you missed 20 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: at the end of last hour where I read it. 21 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: It's emotional. But that's that's how voices people affect us 22 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: and Ben certainly had that effect on a lot of 23 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: people over six decades, seven decades. That we'll have that 24 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: for you coming up. We've talked about Juan Soto, Josh Bell, 25 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: don't sleep on the Brandon Drewery pick up from the 26 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: Reds by the Poddresh The Dolphins owner has been suspended, 27 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: team loses draft picks, tanking, tampering. I think that they 28 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: got off lightly here Stephen Ross. But we'll talk about 29 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: that coming up. Eight seven seven three d P Show 30 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Email I address DPA dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle 31 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: it DP show. We spent seventeen minutes with Vin and 32 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to play the entire interview and uh, this 33 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: is how it started in July of twenty fourteen. Well, 34 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: this is a treat, a treat for me, the longtime 35 00:01:53,640 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: Dodger announcer Vin Scully joining us. Good morning, Vin. You 36 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: I'm spectacular. I'm spectacular. Well it's good to know somebody 37 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: who's spectacular. Well, I try to set the bar really high. 38 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, well you've done that for years. Well thank you. 39 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: Did you ever think we would get to a point 40 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: where we would compare another left hand or to Sandy 41 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: Kofax at least performance mind stats wise, like we have 42 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw. Well, people ask me about comparing or linking 43 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: them together. To me, there is one huge difference. In 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: Sandy's day, he pitched every fourth day. With Kershaw, he 45 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: pitches every fifth day. What Sandy did in his time 46 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: was go complete games. Sandy one year, one twenty seven games, 47 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: he completed twenty seven games. Well, Clayton will never do that. Clayton, 48 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: I think, up the top of my head, might have 49 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: two complete games, one of which was a no hitter. 50 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: So there's a ass difference in the pitching number two 51 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: right now, Clayton Kershaw is striking out a lot of 52 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: people in Sandy's day pitching every fourth day. I mean 53 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: one year he struck out something like three hundred and 54 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: twenty bodies. Well, you never see that. So to me, 55 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: they each have their separate place, their separate niche Kershaw 56 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: belongs in one and Colfax belongs in the other. The 57 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: game has changed, but has your role your job changed? No, 58 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: not at all. I mean my job basically is to 59 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: call the play as accurately and as swiftly as possible, 60 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: get out of the way for the crowd, and perhaps 61 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: somewhere along the way inform a little bit and totain 62 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: even a little bit if something comes up and the 63 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: opportunity is there and you put it all together. But 64 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: the entire job is based on accuracy, where by the 65 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: listener or the viewer understands what you're saying and trust you. 66 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: I guess trust goes right along with accuracy. I know 67 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: when we first came out to Los Angeles, I was 68 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: very fortunate the game was being played in the Coliseum, 69 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: which was anything but a baseball park, but good for me. 70 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: The transistor radio came along, and people knew the stars, 71 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: but they didn't know the rank and file, so they 72 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 1: would bring a transistor radio. So that was my opportunity 73 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: to inform and also to get closer to the fan 74 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: and the listener. But the one thing I had to 75 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: establish was that I was accurate and fair. If I 76 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: said a Dodger made a good play, I wanted them 77 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: to know, yes, I worked for the Dodgers, but this 78 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: is an honest call, not just oh my gosh, everything 79 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers do is a great play to that guy. 80 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: So those are the basest parts of the job and 81 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: it never changes. What about the art of silence? Oh, 82 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: I love it. You know, it's probably selfish on my part. 83 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: When I was about eight years old, the reason that 84 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 1: I eventually went in this direction, and I told this 85 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: story many times, we had a big, old four legged 86 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: radio with a crossbar for support underneath it, and I 87 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: would get a pillow and a glass of milk and 88 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: some saltine crackers. And here's this kid in Washington Heights 89 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: in New York, and I would crawl under the radio 90 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: on a Saturday afternoon to listen to a football game. 91 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: Now I didn't even know the rules of football. It 92 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: might be Tennessee Alabama, which meant absolutely nothing to this 93 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: little kid, but the roar of the crowd absolutely intoxicated me. 94 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: So that's what drew me to go to sports. Now, 95 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: even to this day, I try to call the play 96 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: and shut up so I can also enjoy the roar 97 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: of the crowd. And I remember doing a World Series 98 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: many years ago and somebody hit a home run, and 99 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: typical of a network, first you see the fella hit 100 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: the home run, then they show it again, and so 101 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: in my mind, I thought, well, I've just called it 102 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: home run. I'm not going to say anything, and they 103 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: showed the tape and a television columnist wrote, perhaps Vin 104 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: Scully made his greatest contribution by not saying anything. And 105 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: I really took that as a compliment, and I've tried 106 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: to use that forever, including Henry Aaron's home run, Kurt 107 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: Gibson's home run, etc. Et cetera. I can hear the 108 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: beer vendor sometimes when you're calling a game. Is that 109 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: on purpose? No? No, whatever the microphones pick up from 110 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: the crowd. That's another story. I will tell you this though. 111 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: In the nineteen fifty eight we were playing at Seal 112 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: Stadium in San Francisco, and our booth and that's using 113 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: the term very loosely, was right amongst the crowd, and 114 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: we would do our commercials live, and we were sponsored 115 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: by a beer, a beer in Los Angeles, and so 116 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: I would read my commercial and talking about the merits 117 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: of the beer in Los Angeles, while the crowd in 118 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: San Francisco thought great, and they would start hollering every 119 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: beer brand known to man, just to try and get 120 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: it on the air, while I'm trying to stumble along 121 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: doing the other commercial. So yeah, there were times when 122 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: you could hear the beer vendors and they weren't even vendors. 123 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: He's a Vin Scully joining us dan Patrick show. Brett 124 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: Musburger told me something a couple of years ago where 125 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: he talked about Joe Paternal certain people that's what they're 126 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: going to do the rest of their life. He said, 127 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: Joe Paternal will coach until he does that. There's certain 128 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: people that that's just their DNA that they don't want 129 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: to stop doing. And Brent said he's probably one of 130 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: those people. Do you find that that's who you are, 131 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: that's what you do, that's what you always do. Well, 132 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure, to be honest. First of all, 133 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: the thought of stopping and not doing anything is pretty frightening. 134 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: After you have been doing it for so long, it 135 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: really does become a part of your nature. But each year, 136 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: I really and truly do evaluate where I am as 137 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 1: far as health. First of all, my wife and I 138 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: talk about our particular association, and then I think about 139 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: and I carefully try to be my own critic. Am 140 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: I still doing a good enough job to have the 141 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: privilege of doing the Dodger games? And all of that 142 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: goes into the mix. So when I say I'll probably 143 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: make an announcement, and I don't mean it that way, 144 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: but I'll probably come to a conclusion sometime in August 145 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: and we'll see how it plays out. Again. Whatever the 146 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: decision is, I am going to be uneasy one way 147 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: or the other. I think kind enough to have Vince 148 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: Scully stay with us. And I'm looking at the resume here. 149 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: You've been calling games since the fifties, got to see 150 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: Jackie Robinson play. It's pretty incredible call his games. And 151 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: Vince Scully back with us, the long time Dodger announcer. 152 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: So I've just mentioned you've been calling games since the fifties. 153 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: Who's the player you look back and you say with 154 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: wonderment or fascination that that was just it was a 155 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: treat to watch him play. I'm not quite sure that 156 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: off the top of my head, Dan, I can oversimplify 157 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: by saying the best player I ever saw, the one 158 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: who is completely equipped in every phase of the game, 159 00:09:55,320 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: was Willie Mays. I could also say that, perhaps in 160 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: his own way, the most exciting player had to be 161 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: Jackie Robinson because we understood what was going on with him. 162 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: But a fun player that for me, that's hard to 163 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: pin down. In all honesty, did you keep scorecards? You know, 164 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm terrible. People have always asked me about that. And 165 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: each year I finished my scorebook and I throw it away. No. Yeah, yeah, 166 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: my wife demands, and I understand. This year, I'm going 167 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: to try and hold onto the scorebook. Yeah. I've had 168 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: people say, gee, I'd love to see Colfax perfect game. 169 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: I'd say, well, so would I. But in all honesty, 170 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: over the years, if I were a collector, i'd have 171 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: to own two houses, you know, to put all the 172 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: stuff in there, because I've been so privileged to and 173 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: it is a privilege and honor. When when Clayton Kershaw 174 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: and Josh Beckett pitch no hitters within the month, I 175 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: had no idea. I honestly had no idea how many 176 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: no hitters that I had broadcast, nor did I really care, 177 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: because it's not an accomplishment for me. I just happened 178 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: to be so fortunate to be on the scene. But 179 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: it's nothing that I've done. So our PR department went 180 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 1: back through the books. I did give them a starting point. 181 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: I said, I remember the very first no hitter, Verned 182 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: Bickford of the Boston Braves, It was in braves Field 183 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: in Boston my first year, but after that it's just 184 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: a blue haze. So they have figured out that I 185 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: have done nineteen no hitters and three perfect games, so 186 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: I guess you'd put that all together. It's twenty two, 187 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: but the numbers bounced around so much, and I'm not 188 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: about to sit down and try and go back through 189 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: the books and figure it out. Social media play a role. 190 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: Do you follow it at all? What people say? No? 191 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: In fact, oh, I guess. It was two years ago. 192 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: We were doing a telecast and Shane Victorino had just 193 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: become a Dodger. He was leaving Philadelphia, I believe, coming 194 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: to Los Angeles, and he sent a message to the team, 195 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: hold on, I'll be there soon, blah blah blah blah blah. 196 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: So the director said to me, Vin, We're going to 197 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: put it up on the screen, Victorino's message and take it. 198 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: So I said, oh fine, I said to the audience, 199 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: Shane Victorino has been twitting and sent a twit because 200 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: I didn't know, and I assumed that if it's Twitter, 201 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: the message itself is twit. Well, it went viral. People 202 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: thought it was the funniest thing. In the whole world, 203 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: and oh after I knew that it was really a 204 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: funny thing, and I was certainly at home with it. 205 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: So about a day or two later doing the telecast, 206 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: and I said, by the way, because I really try 207 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: to talk to the listener, I said, by the way, 208 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: could somebody tell me what the heck a hashtag? Well? 209 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: That went viral, and because I'm totally ignorant of all 210 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: of that stuff, and so what happened was in order 211 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: to really use it, the Dodgers said, you know, the 212 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: ball club is going to be in New York and 213 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: they're going to play two games with the Yankees, so 214 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: we're going to have you tweeting about one of the games. 215 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: And I said, okay, sure, because I didn't have to 216 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: go to New York. So sure enough, they were rained 217 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 1: out and they now had a double head. And so 218 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: the second game of the double head, I sat home 219 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: in the family room, watching the game on TV on 220 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: the phone talking to a man in the office who 221 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: then relayed my message whatever the comment was, to a 222 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: girl who was able to reduce it to I don't know, 223 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 1: it's one hundred and forty characters or something like that, 224 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: and then she would release it and the people went wild. 225 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm into that. It was like, oh my gosh, Scully 226 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: knows how to tweet, and it was very funny and 227 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: the people got a big kick out of it. But 228 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: do I use that, No, not at all. No. I 229 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: like you even more, Vin because you don't know about 230 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: tweeting in hashtags. I'm right there with you. Yeah, yeah, 231 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: I admit it. I mean, I sure I can get 232 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: one of my grandchildren and they'll explain a whole bunch 233 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: of stuff. But I use my cell phone basically as 234 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: a telephone, and that's it. So that's about where I am. 235 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: If you look at your style, if you were just 236 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: coming up trying to get into business, how do you 237 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: think the executives would view your style of broadcasting? Well, 238 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, that's that's a great question, and it's also 239 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: a great point when you begin. The best advice I 240 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: ever got about broadcasting was from Red Barber and my 241 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: very first year and here is this kid, wide eyed, 242 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: suddenly going to be broadcasting whatever inning or innings with 243 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: this fabled Brooklyn Dodger baseball team. And Red said to me, 244 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: you know, young man, you bring something into the booth 245 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: that no one else in the world can bring. Well, 246 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: I was popeyed me. I brought something. I said, I 247 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: don't understand what, and he said, yourself, there's no one 248 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: else in this world quite like you. Now in New York, 249 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: my gosh, you had Mel Allen and Kurt Gaudy were 250 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: a team, yet Rus Hodges Yet, and then of course 251 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: Red and Connie Desmond. So New York had these marvelous 252 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: group of announcers. And what Red said was, don't listen 253 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:15,239 Speaker 1: to any of them, because if you do, either consciously 254 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: or subconsciously, you will try to imitate. You'll either pick 255 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: up phases, you'll change the intonation, whatever. And what he 256 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: was telling me was, if you do, you'll be watering 257 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: your own wine. So although I could have learned a 258 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: great deal, I'm sure I tried very hard not to 259 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: listen to other people. But that took several years before 260 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: me whatever is inside of me finally surfaced. So the 261 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: hardest advice you can give to a young fello at 262 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: the beginning is to say, be yourself. And of course 263 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: the greatest lesson in life is to know thyself. And 264 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: it takes a long time, and the same thing applies. 265 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: So when I first started, if I just walked in 266 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: and I'm competing against all the major league ball players 267 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: who are now in the business. I'm not sure what 268 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: they would think of me. They might think, well, he 269 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: has a nice voice and the reasonable vocabulary. But I 270 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: would have to prove myself, I'm sure, very very hard. 271 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: What's the first thing to go on to play by 272 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: play announcer, Well, I hope, I don't really know, but 273 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: if I had to think, you're the ball player, his 274 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: coordination starts to go. Whether it's a fellow who was 275 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: a pole hitter hit everything to left field, all of 276 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: a sudden, he's late on the fastball, he can't get 277 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: around on it, and his ball are now being hit 278 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: in center field or a left center or a right center. 279 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: It's obvious if you charted every base hit, you could 280 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: see this pole hitter where all of his hits were 281 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: bunched up in one direction. And then as the years 282 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: go by, that bunch suddenly fans out a great deal. 283 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: And as it fans out, brand Trickey used to do 284 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: that and he'd see where it's just starting to fan 285 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: and he trade the player. That was his secret. So 286 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: I guess for a play by play man who depends 287 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: on the coordination of eye, brain and mouth. Sooner or 288 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: later that coordination has to weaken from age. Suddenly you're 289 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: behind on the plays. You're not quite remembering all of 290 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: the players who are involved in a six man rundown. 291 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 1: And after a while, I'm sure I even now. And 292 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: I don't mean that I'm one so rare that I 293 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: don't have it. There are times I'm a very severe critic, 294 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: and there are many times where I'll get in the 295 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,959 Speaker 1: car and say, you used to be able to do 296 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,479 Speaker 1: that play so much easier than you did it tonight. 297 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 1: Bear down, you know, So I guess that's what happens. 298 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: Good luck twitting, okay, and I will and if you 299 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: ever send me a picture of a hashtag, I love it. Vin, 300 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: thank you. It's been a treat, all right, my pleasure, 301 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: damn thank you.

We talked about 341 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: the Dolphins situation. It certainly feels like they're guilty of 342 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: a lot here. I don't know if they really felt 343 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 1: the pain. They lost a draft pick, first round draft 344 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: pick coming up, lost another draft pick, the owner is 345 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: not allowed to be around the team for a couple 346 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: of months, and they're fine one point five million dollars. 347 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: Lewis Riddick joins us on behalf of the mothership. ESPN 348 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: front office insider Lewis, when you look at tampering and 349 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: you look at tanking, you're trying to better your team. 350 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 1: But which one is more egregious to you? Well, I 351 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 1: think tank for sure, because of the far reaching implications 352 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: that intentionally trying to lose games than I mean that 353 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 1: that has and that is I mean just look at right, 354 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: just look at the kind of penalty that they hit 355 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley with. When compromising the integrity of the game 356 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: obviously comes into question when you're talking about betting on 357 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: football games and how that can have far reaching ramifications. 358 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: When you're talking about not emphasizing winning games or trying 359 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: to lose for whatever reason it is in this case, 360 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: to try and better your draft position. I mean understand, 361 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: that's obviously compromising the integrity of the game because the 362 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: game is not not being played true to the way 363 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: it needs to be played, which is to win. Now, 364 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: so I would think that that is much worse than tampering, 365 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: which is something that we know happens. Okay, we all 366 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 1: know that people talk to people who are under contract 367 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: and strike deals long before it's probably it's permissible for 368 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: you to strike deals, you know, the good old you know, 369 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: the good old secret meetings, whereas you you wind up 370 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: making some some transactions that aren't official until they become official, 371 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: until they're allowed to become official. But it feels like 372 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: sect selective punishment for tampering if it goes out all 373 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: the time, it's everybody knows there's a speed limit. That 374 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: doesn't mean we adhere to the speed limit. But then 375 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 1: you get pulled over and there are other cars that 376 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: are going just as fast. Well, I think there's sometimes 377 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 1: I think sometimes that that is what the NFL gets 378 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 1: criticized for as far as you know, as far as 379 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: how they hand out punishment, that sometimes it does feel 380 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: selective and subjective and not fair. And you know, on 381 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: the level across the board. Now, I will say that 382 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: the commissioner wrote in his you know, in his statement there, 383 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: that this was egregious tampering of a level that he 384 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: has never seen before in terms of tampering with a 385 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 1: quarterback and a head coach. We're both under contract and 386 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: untouchable and doing it for the period of time that 387 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: they did it. Yeah, and the brazen way in which 388 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: they did it, and that is I mean, look, I 389 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: mean when when you start using those kind of words, 390 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 1: just like when they use those kind of words. You know, 391 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: when George Robinson used that kind of word to describe 392 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: the Shaun Watson casement, She's talking about egregious and predatory. 393 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,479 Speaker 1: There's certain words, and I mean, you know, I mean, 394 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you something you don't know. When those 395 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: kind of things are said, that makes you perk up 396 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: a little bit and go, well, even for these guys 397 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: who kind of know how it kind of goes. Yeah, 398 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: as far as you know, the commissioner knows what we're 399 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: talking about here, As far as tim he knows what's 400 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: going on. But when he uses that word like god, 401 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 1: I mean like he's almost saying like I can't. I mean, 402 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: what am I supposed to? When I look at this, 403 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, damn. But do you think that Sean Payton 404 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: would have quit the Saints? Yeah? Like he knew that 405 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: he was getting the Dolphins job, right? Do you think 406 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: that he quit the Saints knowing he was going to 407 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,719 Speaker 1: get the Dolphins job and then it didn't happen and 408 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: then he ended up going into broadcasting. I don't know, 409 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: I really don't U. But if you look at the 410 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: breadcrumbs here, Brady you know, retires from the Buccaneers and 411 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, Dolphins rumors meeting on the yacht. 412 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: Bryan Flores says, I don't want to be involved in 413 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 1: Sean Payton's avail. Like there's a whole lot not on here. Yeah, 414 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, as far as how you know, 415 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: when Sean made the decisions that he made, as far 416 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: as Quentin the Saints and then moving on in the 417 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 1: broadcasing or how that came about. What I do know though, 418 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 1: is one of the names that you just brought up 419 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: there in that whole scenario, that being Brian Flores. Just 420 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: think about, for me, think about how this man has 421 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: been being undermined right from the outset while he's the 422 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: head coach of you know, going back to the twenty 423 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: nineteen season, I mean, where he is sitting there knowing 424 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: that there are people who are emphasizing draft position over 425 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: winning football games, and then knowing that obviously you know, 426 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: there's people who are actively try to replace him while 427 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: he's being hired to do his job, and then the 428 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: implications that that has from minority coaches, and this this 429 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: is so there is there's so many different layers to 430 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: it and what it means and how it affects others 431 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: when you and then you know, when it all falls 432 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: under that compromising the integrity of the game, unbro all 433 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, so I don't. I don't think. I 434 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: think when you factor in all of that, the effect 435 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: that it had on Brian Flores, the effect you know 436 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: that you know, the perception that it obviously creates amongst 437 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: the fans, I mean, the commissioner another choice, he had 438 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: another choice, just from the tampering aspect, he had another choice. 439 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: But who jokes about who jokes about tanking? Who? Nobody 440 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: like owner own right, I would not joke and go 441 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 1: I'm just kidding, Yeah, no kidding, there's a little there's 442 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: a little truth in every bit of kidding. Exactly exactly. 443 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: You're right. That is the kind of thing that I 444 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 1: would assume you have a reasonable amount of awareness to 445 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: the fact that you can't joke and kid about that 446 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: kind of thing. You can't say it and then just go, oh, 447 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: I'm dismissing, Oh, don't take me yet. You're You're absolutely right. 448 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: And I think everyone who has any kind of common 449 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,199 Speaker 1: sense and has a little bit of awareness, knows that 450 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: you're right with every joke, there is a little bit 451 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: of truth to it, and in this case, it's something 452 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: that it just can't be tolerated, not if you want 453 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: to be taken as credible in terms of holding everyone accountable. 454 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: And see, look that's a whole other stuffect right, I 455 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: mean we're talking about the whole accountability issue when it 456 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 1: comes to the NFL making sure that they're holding everyone 457 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: to the very highest standard, and people have a big problem. 458 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: I think that's more or less at the crux of 459 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: everyone right now's anger and disappointment is the level of 460 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 1: accountability being fair and equitable across all parties, players, management, coaches, 461 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: owners and quite honestly, if the NFL has said themselves, 462 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: we need to hold management and ownership to higher standards 463 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: than to which we even hold the players, and many 464 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: people were feeling as though that's not the case. Well, 465 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: you look at Deshaun Watson. Look do I think he 466 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:08,880 Speaker 1: got off you know easier? He should have sat down 467 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: for a season in my opinion, but it's based on 468 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: precedent here. The thing with owners is we don't necessarily 469 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: have that much precedent here that I can go Daniel Snyder, 470 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: Stephen Ross or Jerry Jones or Robert Kraft. They're not 471 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: held to a higher standard, right because if I'm I 472 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: don't know if the commissioner is this angry at Deshaun 473 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 1: Watson's ruling as he was with what Stephen Ross and 474 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: the Dolphins are guilty of here. Like if I look 475 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: at his language there, he is he owed because you're 476 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: looking at the integrity of the game. The bottom line 477 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: is is gambling. You gotta trust the shield Like this 478 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: to me is more egregious. Yes, Deshaun Watson predatory creep 479 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: and should sit down and get therapy and those kind 480 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: of things. Yeah, but these are owners here. Yeah, this 481 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: is you know, the the interesting well, I guess you 482 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: should say, Well, the weird dynamic here though is he 483 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: works for them, Yeah, and so you know, so therefore 484 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: he's like saying, look, I know I work for you, 485 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: but I need to set up some rules and guidelines 486 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: by which if you step over the line here, I 487 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: can then come at you and hit you with and 488 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: I need to make sure that it is swifted and 489 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: is severe. And everyone understands that these are the rules 490 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: are non negotiable, and you cannot do these things. And 491 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: if I find that you've done these things, this is 492 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: the amount of money you're gonna get hit with. This 493 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,479 Speaker 1: is the amount of suspension you're gonna get hit and 494 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: see that. That's kind of like that's kind of like 495 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: what Judge Robinson said, like there is no system in 496 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: place where the NFL basically has that all set so 497 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: everyone understands what the rules are. It's kind of like 498 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: made up as you go. It's very reactionary instead of 499 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: forward thinking, which is exactly what she said. This is 500 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: a league that may be forward facing, but it's not 501 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: very much so forward thinking, and that's what gets people. 502 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: That's what gets them into trouble and whatever they think. 503 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: You know what, I shouldn't. We shouldn't put this on her. 504 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: It shouldn't be on her to change the NFL's ways 505 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: of doing things and how they punish somebody. It should 506 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:17,479 Speaker 1: be on the NFL. Does the does the commissioner appeal this? 507 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: Does the NFL appeal this and go after for more? 508 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: With Deshaun They got twenty four hours less than twenty 509 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: four hours here. As much as they don't may not 510 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: want to because they would like to have this new 511 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: system take hold. The fact of the matter is just 512 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: as far as having a third party decide these kind 513 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: of uh punishments, I don't think they have any other 514 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: choice to. The reaction has been just too it's been 515 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: too emotional, it's been too explosive. And I think they 516 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: know in their heart of hearts and in their soul 517 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: that but this is it's just not enough. Given what 518 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: she said that the NFL did prove in terms of 519 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: presenting the evidence to her, She's basically he agreed with 520 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: him as far as what they would they presented to her. 521 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: But she's just saying, but I'm not gonna do something 522 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: that you wouldn't even do or would you haven't done 523 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: in the past in terms of handing down punishment. I'm 524 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: just gonna follow the guidelines that you have done in 525 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: the past. So it's your fault that I'm not going 526 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: to hit him even harder, although I agree with you, 527 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: which has got to be like wow, it should make you, 528 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: meaning the NFL, sit back and think, well, maybe we 529 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: need to reevaluate her the personal conduct policy and how 530 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: punishment is handed out, and we need to make it 531 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: a little bit more concrete a little bit more, you know, 532 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: so the players and the owners know exactly what they're 533 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: dealing with if they are if they step over the line, 534 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: what exactly is coming because right now, which he basically 535 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: told them, miss, you don't really have a system in place. 536 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,959 Speaker 1: Great to talk to you is always Lewis. Thank you 537 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: for your insights. Absolutely thanks Lewis Reddick, former NFL player, 538 00:31:55,440 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: ESPN front office insider.

Let's go back to November 589 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: of twenty nineteen. Tom was guest on w EEI in Boston. 590 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 1: He did his weekly appearance on there, and he had 591 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: this to say about how long he was going to play. 592 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: I think I've always said forty five just because that 593 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: was you know, that's a good goal to set, because 594 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: that was you know, that's one that's been pretty hard 595 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: to get to for most guys. So I think you 596 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: have to have goals. You have, you know, daily goals, 597 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 1: you have yearly goals, and you have long term goals. 598 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: So I think for me, it's really just the love 599 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 1: of the love of football, you know, And I don't 600 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: know when. I don't know when or if I'll ever 601 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: not love it. I remember at the time, I went, well, 602 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: he's saying this, so nobody's going to bring up retirement 603 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: because it feels like you get to a certain age 604 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: and then we go, hey you're going to retire. Hey 605 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: when are you going to retire? How long are you 606 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,919 Speaker 1: going to play? And I thought, well, this is good 607 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: for his brand TV twelve to say he's going to 608 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 1: play to forty five. I didn't think he's gonna play 609 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: forty five. I didn't know if he would want to 610 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: stay with the Patriots until he was forty five. I 611 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: didn't think that they would want him to stay. I 612 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: didn't know his relationship with Belichick and where it was headed, 613 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you go to Tampa. 614 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: All right, he's gonna have fun, Bruce arians Okay, got 615 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 1: a good team, got a young defense. Okay, they're winning. Okay, 616 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 1: they're winning a super Bowl? All right, Well why would 617 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: he stop playing? And then when he said he was 618 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: going to retire? I think I don't know if he 619 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 1: wanted to play for Tampa again as much as he 620 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,359 Speaker 1: wanted to play for the Dolphins. And then when that 621 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: didn't happen, it felt like, all right, I'm not going 622 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: to play. And then all of a sudden, you got 623 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: a new head coach. He's coming back, And here we 624 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: are with Tom Brady for another year, but forty five 625 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: years of age. Let's see Jamie and Utah. Jamie, thanks 626 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: for holding Welcome to the program. Hey, thanks Dan, I 627 00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: really appreciate it. Six one, two thirty seven. Thank you 628 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: for that. Um. I've got a lot of emotions today, 629 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: and for a bunch of different reasons. First off, I'm 630 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm a DC native, and UM I used to go 631 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: to Senators games with my dad, my uncles, and my 632 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: cousins at RFK Stadium. I remember when they left in 633 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two. I remember Frank Howard. He hit a 634 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: home run so hard one day he broke the back 635 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: of the seat that the ball hit. I was at 636 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: that game, and so it took a long time for 637 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: me to come back to baseball because we were in Washington. 638 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,959 Speaker 1: We could not move for the Orioles. It just couldn't happen. 639 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: But when the when the Nats came to town, we 640 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: were all in the night, me and my sons would 641 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: watch games.

All right, 658 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: all right, thanks hey, real quick. With the passing of Ben, 659 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 1: my first memory of him was an eighty eight World 660 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,080 Speaker 1: Series in the Kirk Gibson call. I remember watching not 661 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: in a small black and white TV in my grandfather's 662 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: den and just the improbable season and we just saw 663 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: the impossible happen. So that's a great memory for me. 664 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: It kind of brought me into baseball. Speaking of that, 665 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: I just have one question for you, Dan and the 666 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: stat of the day, But what do you want through 667 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 1: legacy or lasting impression to be I know there's kind 668 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: of funny to think about. We always joke about being 669 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: the show for the shut Ins, but for real, I 670 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 1: know that you think about this and just kind of 671 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: wanted your thoughts on that, And if you don't mind, 672 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: I do have a stat of the Day to run 673 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: it back. Right. Do you want music? Yeah? Sure, Okay, Mark, 674 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: There's only one player in NFL history to be associated 675 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 1: with every time a team has had the four for 676 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: the first round pick two thousand and eights five Gate 677 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: two fifteen to play Gate in twenty forty two, Tamper Gate. 678 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: Of course, that player is birthday boy Tom Brady. All right, 679 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 1: thank you, Andrew. I haven't thought about legacy. I'm in it. 680 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: I mean, this is every day. I don't think Vin 681 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: Scully ever thought about legacy. I don't think any of 682 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: these announcers do. Because unlike a player, you only get 683 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: to play. You have a finite amount of time. Broadcasting, 684 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 1: we get a lot. I mean we get years and 685 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: years and years and years and years to be able 686 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 1: to do this. But hopefully I'm remembered as being fair, 687 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: fair to the story, fair to people listening to both sides, 688 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 1: hopefully being pragmatic, being a good listener, being a good interviewer, 689 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: and having fun. So that's what it is. That's our 690 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: goal every day, and hopefully that's what we will leave 691 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 1: you with whenever we walk off into the sunset. Jim 692 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:15,360 Speaker 1: and Idaho, Hi Jim, what's on your mind? Hey Dan boys, 693 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: thanks for letting me join today.

Terrific. 695 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: Note from Brian Cranston on Vince Silly Wow. Hey, I 696 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: grew up in LA in the seventies and it was 697 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: an awesome time to be a sports fan. You had 698 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: been with the Dodgers, of course, Chickern with the Lakers, 699 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,359 Speaker 1: dick Enver for the Rams, and the Angels. I never 700 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,360 Speaker 1: realized how great it was until I got older and 701 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: lived in other cities and listening to other games, especially 702 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: baseball games. Quick story on Ben. I met him when 703 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: I was thirteen or fourteen as one of the sons, 704 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 1: and I went to the cent school and he asked 705 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 1: me if I was a Dodger fan, and of course 706 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: I said yes, and then he asked me who my 707 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: favorite Dodger was. Well, I was so nervous that he 708 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:01,720 Speaker 1: didn't hear his question properly, and I thought he asked 709 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,720 Speaker 1: me what my favorite Dodgers thing was, So I answered 710 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 1: the Dodger dog. He looked at me funny. He looked 711 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: at me funny, and he said, your favorite player is 712 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,359 Speaker 1: a Dodger dog. So you can imagine my embarrassing, right, 713 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 1: So I couldn't say anything, but he just chuckled, patted 714 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 1: me on the shoulder and said in his great voice, 715 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 1: well I'm a big fan too, And that put me 716 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,319 Speaker 1: so at ease and less embarrass as a kid. It 717 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 1: was a great moment, and he was just a good dude. Yeah, 718 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,279 Speaker 1: And I said this before. He had a way of 719 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: making you feel good it. You know, he knew that 720 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 1: you were nervous meeting him, and there's certain I brought 721 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: up Paul McCartney. Paul McCartney knows when you meet him 722 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: that you're nervous, and Vin knows that, so then would 723 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: kind of disarm you. You'd be like, Okay, it's okay. 724 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: Al Michael's will join us coming up about ten minutes 725 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 1: from now.
