Normally, 17 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: I let mclovin come up with a poll question, or 18 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: at least he has some suggestions, and about ten minutes 19 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: ago I said to the Danna's, hey, I think I 20 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: have a pull question here, and Polly goes save it 21 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: and I go. Okay, So this has to do with 22 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: Brady and Mahomes as my poll question today. For some reason, 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: I thought it was a great idea last night. I 24 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: don't know if it's a great idea this morning. Yes, Polly, 25 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: that's why you never think. You just say things on there. 26 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: We give our poll questions about a minute or two 27 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: of thought and then we present them to you. I know, 28 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: but I like to give a little more thought than 29 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: you guys do. It doesn't work. Okay, here's my poll question, 30 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: potential poll question suggestion for a pull question. Maybe it's 31 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: not a pull question. Would you rather have the career 32 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: of Tom Brady or sign up for what you believe 33 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: will be the career of Patrick Mahomes. Okay, I don't know. 34 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: I put that out there first of all, to the 35 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: other side of the room with the Danna. We'll go 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: around the room and be honest with me, Todd, you 37 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: got ten seconds. I would totally take Tom Brady because 38 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: we already know what he's accomplished. No, no no, no, I 39 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: want to know how good the poll question is. I 40 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: don't care what your opinion is. I like the pole question, 41 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: Thank you, Todd. Yes, seton, I'm not really that into it. Okay, 42 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: I'll let you expound upon that, because it just seems 43 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: crazy to me. You could either be the greatest of 44 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: all time or maybe the greatest of all time. Wellhy 45 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't you be the greatest of all time? Well? What 46 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: if Mahomes goes six and oh, then all of a 47 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: sudden he's the greatest of all time? Maybe? Yeah, Well, 48 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: at least you're in the conversation there. Yeah, but he 49 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: would still wouldn't he have to make it to ten? Well, 50 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: Jordan didn't. I mean, if we're gonna look at Lebron 51 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: when he's all said and done, Lebron might not have six, 52 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: but he might have eleven appearances or twelve appearances in 53 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: the finals, and that might be enough to push him 54 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: over the edge. But yeah, I mean clubbing, I love 55 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: it because you hit a sub theme that Tom Brady 56 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: is the grace for all time, but he's never been 57 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: the most talented quarterback. That's Aaron Rodgers. Mahomes is a 58 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: combo of Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady's gonna have all 59 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: the success. Plus he's going to be known as the 60 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: most talented guy. All right, And you did that an 61 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: under fifteen seconds yes, boy. It may seem obvious that 62 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: it's Tom Brady initially, but Tom Brady has losses on 63 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: his record. Like you said, if Mahomes can somehow win six, 64 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: Brady had three at age twenty eight, but then he 65 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: had none for the next eight years. And go back 66 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: real quick to Jimmy Johns. Jimmy Johns said the other day, 67 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: I he could take any quarterback all time to start 68 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: his team. He did not say Tom Brady. Yeah, he 69 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: said Patrick Mahomes. Fair question. Like two years ago, it 70 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: was going to be Aaron Rodgers because he was the 71 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: most talented to ever play the position. Like it changes. 72 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: By the time Patrick mahomes career is over, He's not 73 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: going to be the most talented person to play the 74 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: position anymore. Some new guy that everybody's crazy over is 75 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: going to be that guy. But unlike Rogers, he could 76 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: have more super Bowls. You know, Rogers will never win 77 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: this argument. He might be the most talented, but hey, 78 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: you went to one, you got one super Bowl ring 79 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: people will not acknowledge you as the greatest quarterback of 80 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: all time. It's Brady, and then you go down to 81 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: Montana and then whoever else you want to factor in there. 82 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: But I think it is interesting that the Chiefs are 83 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: set up to win multiple super Bowls here they are again, 84 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: if you know you don't have the off sides penalty 85 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: against the Patriots, they would have been in that Super 86 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: Bowl as well, and then you would have three in 87 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: a row perhaps with this team. And I think because 88 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: of that, with Andy Reid's age, you have Tyree Hill 89 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: and Kelsey and Mahomes locked up with their contracts. Feels 90 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: like that's a pretty good head start there. If you 91 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: were saying, would you rather have the potential of Mahomes 92 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: in what he'll do in his career or you can 93 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: sign off. And although we don't know what's going to 94 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: happen with Brady this weekend, because if he adds another 95 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: super Bowl here, it may not matter because he will 96 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: have gone through Breeze, Rogers, Mahomes. Although you can say 97 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: going through Breeze, that's not the Hall Fame version of Breeze, 98 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: but you're going to go through Mahomes and you're going 99 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: to go through a On Rodgers during his MVP season. Yes, 100 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: point going back to Tom Brady's record at age twenty seven, 101 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 1: he had super Bowl wins at age twenty four, twenty six, 102 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: and twenty seven. Then from twenty eight to thirty six 103 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: he won zero super Bowls, which you would think would 104 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: be his prime. He won him early and won him late. 105 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: Gotta give a La Manning a couple of credit. There 106 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: is this going to be a landslide though the people 107 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: are everybody's gonna take Tom Brady on this poll question. 108 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: But then I don't know if you have people who 109 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: refuse to side with Tom Brady on anything that you 110 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: know for some reason he's polarizing. You don't get gazelle 111 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: with this either, by the way, you do not, yes, McLean. 112 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: I mean Tom didn't do that much on the first 113 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: three Super Bowl teams. That's just a fact. They were 114 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: not a high flying off. He didn't win his first 115 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: MVP too. Oh seven, Mahomes is already like throwing fifty touchdown. 116 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: It's okay. So I think there's a strong argument for Mahomes. 117 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: It is I it is tough to beat Tom. He'll win, 118 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: but I don't think it's a landslide. The thing is 119 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: that will amaze a lot of people. The first year 120 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: that Tom Brady was an all pro, and I don't 121 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: have polycheck. This was thirty years of age. That's correct. 122 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: He made some Pro Bowls, but he was not an 123 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: All Pro, which means you're the best guy in the sport. Yeah. Yeah, 124 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: there's a difference when we talk about the Pro Bowl 125 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: that pales in comparison to being a All Pro. All 126 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: Pro means you're the best quarterback. Pro Bowl means you 127 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,679 Speaker 1: could be the seventh best quarterback because four other guys 128 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: decided that they weren't going to play in the Pro Bowl. Yes, 129 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: so are we overrating Tom Brady? I mean, if he 130 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: did nothing in those first three Super Bowls, they basically 131 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: won with or without him, so those rings really don't count. 132 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: He was just sort of along for the ride. I'm 133 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: not overrating him. I think that those things mattered. I 134 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: think it mattered greatly with what he did in that 135 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: two minute drive that John Madden the esteem John Madden 136 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: said they should be playing for overtime given you know 137 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: that Brady is inexperienced quarterback there and he let him 138 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: down to kick the game winning field goal. Yes, he 139 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: threw a couple of screen bass Kevin Fogg, It's not 140 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 1: like he reinvented the game in those drives. Wow. I 141 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: think vine Terry was the hero. Now he was Vine 142 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: Terry might be underrated. Also, if the dumb Chuck Roule 143 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: did exist, we wouldn't even be having You're right, yes, 144 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's first year where he went to the super 145 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: Bowl in two thousand and one, in three playoff games, 146 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: he threw one touchdown pass. Right, He got better after that, 147 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: but that yeah, three games, there were three, and obviously 148 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: because they won the super Bowl, he threw one touchdown 149 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: on one pick. His numbers didn't really spike in the 150 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: playoffs till a couple years later. Well maybe that's when 151 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: Belichick was winning super bowls for the Patriots, and then 152 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: Tom started winning super bowls for the Patriots. That's that's 153 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: the interesting part here is you know, Belichick's a defensive guy, 154 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: former defensive coordinator, and you know that first Super Bowl, 155 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: they definitely there were fourteen point underdogs against the Rams, 156 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: the greatest show on Turf, and they played great defense, 157 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: physical defense against those wide receivers and ended up winning 158 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: that game. They were a defensive minded team. And then 159 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: all of a sudden fast forward where they get in 160 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: a shootout with Jake Delme in a Super Bowl in 161 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: Houston or the Eagles Super Bowl game where they lose 162 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: that one when Brady did everything you could possibly do 163 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: but the defense did nothing. Yeah, pulling that first Super Bowl, 164 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner had three hundred and sixty five yards in 165 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Brady had one hundred and forty five yards 166 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: in a touchdown. Brady one, are you guys okay with 167 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: this poll question? You can sign up for Brady's career, 168 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: or you can invest in their stocks so you already 169 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: have a stock that's a really high price, or you 170 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: can get the gay Patrick Mahomes's game Stop? Do you 171 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: realize Over the weekend, my son said, Hey, I gotta 172 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: go to game Stop. I lost the headset for Call 173 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: of Duty or something. Game Stop was closed, like it 174 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: was all boarded up. Oh they're out of business. Well, 175 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: the one that we went to, and I thought, I 176 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: thought that they're flourishing with this stock price, and then 177 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: I realized, no, not the case. It's that game stop. 178 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: It's game over. Pull up right where game Stop used 179 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 1: to be, and I go, well, signs down. I don't 180 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 1: think you're getting anything in here. Yes, we love. I 181 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: thought you were gonna do like Mahomes is Tesla or 182 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: Apple and Brady's IBM or something. I think John Walford 183 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: is game stopped to honest. Yeah, if you want to 184 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: have Mahomes is Tesla, you can do that. But then 185 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: who's Brady? Apple? Apple? Apple stocks are taking off in 186 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: the early two thousands much like Actually I've made that up, 187 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: but that sounds about right. Yes, yes, so Mahomes would 188 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: be Tesla, right because he just went through the roof 189 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: and made to the moon. To the moon. Yeah, Diamond 190 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: Hanson yeah, um, and Tom is Apple. And you know 191 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: Apple's on a little bit of a downtick lately. It 192 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: started really strong, it's slowly it's still underperforming a little bit, 193 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:04,599 Speaker 1: but still there. Tom Brady question mark slipping. Yes, I 194 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: did read an article. Apple is like eleven percent of 195 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: the American economy. Apple. I just gave them a dollar. 196 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: I don't even know what for. Is Tom Brady eleven 197 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: percent of the NFL? I love the Mahomes as Tesla though, 198 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: So yes, that makes sense now. I mean if you 199 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: look at NFL coverage, there's a lot of Brady there. 200 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's and rightfully so, because now they want 201 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: to bring in Belichick and who had more success and 202 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: Matt Light who won three Super Bowls, with the Patriots 203 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: is going to join us, and I'm just curious, you 204 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: know where he where he fits in on this debate 205 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: with who's more important with the Patriots dynasty. Why is 206 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: it that we can't accept that both were very important 207 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: and depending on the year, depending on the month, depending 208 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: on the day, one was more important than the other. 209 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: I know, it's no fun and I could never get 210 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: a job at you know, First Things First or whatever 211 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: those other shows at Last Things First, uninvincible and indescribable something, 212 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 1: because I would have to take a side on this. 213 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: But I can look and say Belichick did this at 214 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: this point, Brady did this at this point. Yeah, keep 215 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: in mind the ultimate Belichick decision was he decided to 216 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: stay with Tom Brady after Drew Bledsoe got healthy. This 217 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 1: is a one hundred million dollars quarterback and Belichick decided 218 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: that he was going to stay with the inexperienced Tom Brady. 219 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 1: I have to give him credit for that, even though 220 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: we don't, and I do think that I think it 221 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: became Tom Brady's Patriots in the early going or maybe 222 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: half first half of his career. It was Belichick's Patriots. 223 00:11:54,400 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: They needed each other, they needed the system, Belichick was 224 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: able to kind of exchange players. He always got rid 225 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: of somebody a year earlier than a year late. Do 226 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: I think that he helped Brady offensively, know, except for 227 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: the offensive line, had a system there that really helped Brady. 228 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: But they didn't have more key players. I mean, they 229 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 1: had Randy Moss, but they didn't have great players year 230 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: and a year out. And that was the genius of 231 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 1: Brady and Belichick. If you can say, boy, he's a 232 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: defensive minded guy. He didn't come up with a way 233 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: to stop the Eagles in the super Bowl and a 234 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: backup quarterback in Nick Foles. He never explained why he 235 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: would bench his best defensive back or least one of those, 236 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: in Malcolm Butler in the Super Bowl, putting them at 237 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: a distinct disadvantage there. You know, I side with both here, 238 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: just depending on what you know, what's the era we're 239 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: talking about, Which team are we talking about? Because I 240 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: do think that Belichick played a large role, significant role 241 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: in certain years with the Patriots, not as much in 242 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: other ones because Brady played a more significant role. That's 243 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: just always been my thought on this. Yes, PAULI, it's 244 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: really fun to go back and look at the Boston 245 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: Globe at other places. When Belichick decided he was going 246 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: to start Brady after Bledsoe came back from injury, it's 247 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: not the most popular decision. And if you go back 248 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: to Tom's first season, his first three games where Brady 249 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 1: took over, he had zero touchdowns in three games, was 250 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: a fifty percent passer, and then he went on a 251 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: run where he just kind of took off. By the way, 252 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: The Dan Patrick Show newsletter available daily and it comes 253 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: out at six eastern three Pacific.

He showed me the script 271 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: where he had somebody who had to write it out 272 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: phonetically of how he was supposed to say I don't 273 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: want your live, and then we had a zoom call 274 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: and he held it up and you could see where 275 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: they wanted him to emphasize it a little bit more. 276 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: But a lot of fun.

Mclovin. 283 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: I love it, but you have to give the updates 284 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: throughout the show. No, no, no, I can't do then, Okay, 285 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: I got it. That Okay, Yeah, So the question is 286 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: whose career would you want? Tom Brady and everything he's 287 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,359 Speaker 1: accomplished or Patrick Mahomes and everything that he might accomplish. 288 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: One it's all said and done, that's the question, right, Yeah, 289 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: but it's still fluid because you got Brady who says 290 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: he wants to play a few more years. Here, that's 291 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: an interesting caveat what if they have three more Super 292 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: Bowls against each other? All right, so we'll check in 293 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: with Matt Light who won three Super Bowls with the Patriots. 294 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: Barry Sanders will join us. The great oddsmaker Danny Sheridan 295 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: will stop by. Melissa Ethridge, I believe has a new 296 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl song for us. She's going 297 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: to bring her guitar and join us a little bit 298 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: later on. I do want to dive into the Atlanta 299 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: Hawks LA Lakers game, and really it was maybe the 300 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: game within the game because Lebron got into an altercation 301 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: with four court side fans, at least one who was 302 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: not covering her face with a mask, were ejected from 303 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: last night's game between the Lakers and the Hawks. There 304 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: was a verbal spat with Lebron James, a husband, and wife. 305 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: They exchanged words with Lebron in the fourth quarter and 306 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: that prompted the ejection, and then the woman posted a 307 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: video on her Instagram account. This is after she was 308 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: kicked out, and she could be heard saying, shut the 309 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: bleep up, don't talk to my husband like that while 310 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: standing on the sideline with her mask pulled down below 311 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: her chin. Someone off camera can be heard asking her 312 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: to put her mask on, which is required of all 313 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: fans attending NBA games this season. She wrote f and 314 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: loser in a text box to the accompanying video, with 315 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: her camera appointed at Lebron James. Here is Lebron James 316 00:16:55,560 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: speaking about the incidents courtside last night. Say he went overboard, 317 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: but it went a little bit out of bounce, you know, 318 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: too close to come from me, and I said my 319 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: piece and we could have moved on. Um, but I 320 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: think it was so close to the officials. I think 321 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: the official heard it as well what he has said, UM, 322 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: and it kind of got blown out of proportion, all 323 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: righty Lebron taking the high road. I think he referred 324 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: to as Karen was really really mad after the game. 325 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: But here are the fans. You get to go to 326 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: a game and all of a sudden you want to 327 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: get into a verbal altercation with Lebron James. This is 328 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: what Elsie had to say about the incident. I don't 329 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: feel like it was warning it to be kicked out. 330 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: There was a you know, a back and forth between 331 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: two grown menu and you know, we said our piece, 332 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: he said this piece. I said my piece. And then 333 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: when someone else jumped into it and said they're a piece, 334 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: but I think they were, you know, should have been 335 00:17:54,840 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 1: kicked out now he got into This wasn't a herbal 336 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: altercation with the Cleveland Cavaliers executive who courtside was cheering 337 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: loudly when Lebron missed a shot at the end of 338 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: the third quarter the other night, and then Lebron went 339 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: off and outscored the Cabs in the fourth quarter. This 340 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 1: felt a little more personal, a little bit more in 341 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: your face. And this couple they were going to let 342 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: Lebron know, and then you know, the wife says, look, 343 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: my husband, we've been season ticket holders for whatever a 344 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 1: decade and my husband has a problem with Lebron. You know, 345 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: basically I don't, but you'd never know it from watching 346 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: the video last night. And Lebron said man, I mean 347 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: I missed that. You know, the fan interaction, you know, 348 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: when they're yelling at you get you motivated. But she, uh, 349 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: she went after him pretty good last night. Yampo. Lebron 350 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 1: didn't mention that there's a difference. Some people on the 351 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: sidelines have a couple of alcoholic values because we don't, 352 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: cause we don't have those on a court built bar, 353 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: simply the best tasting protein bar around.

Danny Ammondola said this yesterday. 361 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: He was on Fox Sports, I believe, and he said, Hey, 362 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: the Patriot Way is Tom Brady. You know when you 363 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 1: see Patriot Way in the dictionary, it's Tom Brady. It's 364 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 1: nobody else. It's not Bill Belichick. And I think that 365 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: sort of reignited this discussion here of who's more important 366 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: for the Patriots success. Barry Sanders a little bit later 367 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: on as well, and we look forward to Melissa Ethridge 368 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 1: back with us with another Kansas City Chief super Bowl 369 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: song twenty one After the Hour, Just getting started, Dan 370 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: and the Dana stan Patrick Show.

Former Patriot wide receiver Danny m and 404 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: Doola was on First Things First on Fox Sports one 405 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: yesterday morning, and he was asked about the Patriot Way 406 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: and the former wide receiver had this to say, when 407 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: you see Patriot Way in the dictionary, it's going to 408 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: have Tom Brady's name next to it. None of those 409 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: coaches any passes, those caught any passes, None of those 410 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: coaches made any tackles. They got guys in the right 411 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 1: position because they watched a lot of film and they 412 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: spend all their time at the facility. But Tom Brady 413 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: is the Patriot away and that's and that's the reason 414 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: why Tom Brady is in the Super Bowl right now 415 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: and the Patriots aren't. Alrighty, sounds like a smooth segue 416 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: to bring in Matt Light. Spend a decade there with 417 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: the Patriots, won three Super Bowls there, founder of the 418 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: Light Foundation, and Matt kind enough to join us. What 419 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: did you make of Amon Dola's comments there, Matt, I 420 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: mean it kind of sounded a little bit like an 421 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: angry el right, one of those South people elves. You know, 422 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: maybe he was trying to make a point there about 423 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: something and seems to be working. You know, Look, when 424 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: I was there, you know, my eleven seasons with Bill, 425 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: you know, it was a roller coaster of emotions. There 426 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: were days where you didn't want to hear it from Bill. 427 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: You didn't want to hear the early morning. All right, Look, 428 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: you guys are terrible. We're never gonna win a game 429 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: if you guys keep playing like this. This is the 430 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: worst football I've ever seen. Here. Let's watch lights seven 431 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: hundred times screwing up a block. You know, like it 432 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: gets old, and by the way, it can get really personal, 433 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: especially when you mix in contract talk, right and the 434 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: fact that guys do give up, you know, the ability 435 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: to potentially go make more money elsewhere. So is it 436 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: personal with him at this point right now, sir, seems 437 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: like it, But I think there's some truth in what 438 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: he says, though, you know, to me, if somebody asked 439 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: me who embodies and who is the face of the 440 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: Patriot way kind of hard to argue the point that 441 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 1: it's Tom Brady. Take me back to the decision when 442 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: Belichick decided to stay with Brady even when Drew Bledsoe 443 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: came back from that injury. So two thousand and one, 444 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: you've just paid Drew. He's one of the highest paid 445 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: players in the game, and you've got a guy you're 446 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: not quite sure how good he is, and Brady's won 447 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: a few games, and then he decides to stay with 448 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: him as a teammate and all, you know, somebody blocking 449 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: for these quarterbacks. What did you think of that move 450 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: at the time? Yeah, I mean it was it was like, Okay, 451 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: we had the mo Lewis hit heard around the world. 452 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: You know, we have thee hundred million dollar man, you know, 453 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: largest contract I think at the time in NFL history, 454 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: and we had the backup to the backup, right. I mean, 455 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: Tommy wasn't number two in camp, he was number three. 456 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: I think it was Michael Bishop And I don't know, 457 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: I've been hit a lot, but you know, so you know, yeah, 458 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was an interesting point in time. 459 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: I can remember though, in that season, we're on the 460 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: road playing in Washington and we almost came back in 461 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter to win a road game that at 462 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: the time it was still kind of unknown, can he 463 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: do it? Can he not do it? You know, wins 464 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: Drew gonna be back. But even though we didn't win 465 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: that game on the road, everybody felt, you know, that 466 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: Tommy had what it was gonna take. After that game, 467 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: and then you fast forward to the NC Championship game 468 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: and he leaves with an injury, comes you know, Drew 469 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: Bledsoe comes back in He's darts down the sideline and 470 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: then we're going to the super Bowl with no week 471 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: in between. I mean it was chaos. But you know, 472 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: look as weird as that situation was, it was really 473 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: clear that Tom Brady was a leader. But be honest, 474 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: after the AFC Title game, Bledsoe comes in throwing darts. 475 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: You guys win, You're going to Super Bowl. If I 476 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: would ask you, then who do you want to start 477 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: that Super Bowl? Who would you have picked? You know, honestly, 478 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: you kind of had to go. I mean I felt 479 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: terrible for the situation for Drew Bledsoe. I mean, here, 480 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: we are going to a super Bowl. This guy's put 481 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: in so much work in the National Football League and 482 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: comes back in for that, you know, AFC Championship game 483 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: and picks up right where he left off. But even 484 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 1: with that said, as much as I love Drew Bledsoe, 485 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: you know, I really felt like Tommy earned the right 486 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: to have that opportunity at that point. But he didn't 487 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: throw any touchdowns in the playoffs leading up to the 488 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. He didn't throw a touchdown pass. It's a 489 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: stat that I didn't know. I mean, you wouldn't know 490 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: that if you were in our locker room. Right. And 491 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 1: by the way, you're talking to an offensive lineman. I mean, 492 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 1: you know, just point me in the right direction, you know, 493 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: wind me up and let me go. But how much 494 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 1: credit you give Belichick. Belichick doesn't get credit for making 495 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: this move, right. I mean, as much as we can say, well, 496 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: who's more responsible for the Patriot success Belichicky Belichick made 497 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: the ultimate decision to start Tom Brady over Drew bledsoe. 498 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he's got to get credit for that. Yeah, 499 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: And what a huge point too. I mean, you look 500 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: at the previous season or two, right, and you know 501 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: the lack of kind of people buying into the Patriot 502 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: way and what it meant, and the idea that you know, 503 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: we're going to sacrifice a lot more than just what 504 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: some other teams were doing and how they prepared. Because 505 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,120 Speaker 1: when you come to New England you give up quite 506 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: a bit, you know, especially kind of you know who 507 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: you are in some ways everything gets muted for the 508 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: benefit of the overall organization. But yeah, I mean, look, 509 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: Bill's made some unbelievably tough calls that you know, seemed 510 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: kind of uncharacteristic for a head coach to make. I mean, 511 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: I think about you know, that season in two thousand 512 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 1: and two, I think it was it was the following 513 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,880 Speaker 1: year after we won the Super Bowl, Lawyer Malloy gets 514 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: shipped down to you know, a buffalo blow the desert, right, 515 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: and you know, he was the best one of our 516 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: one of our leaders, I mean clearly one of our 517 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: leaders and one of the guys that everybody looked to. 518 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 1: I mean, that blew my mind. So you know, you 519 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: never knew what to expect. But at the end of 520 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: the day, you know, what we did know is that 521 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: Bill talked a lot about the decisions he makes are 522 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: what's in the best interest of the team. And I 523 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: know that that's something the coaches say, but I truly 524 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: believe that that's what Bill and his entire staff do, 525 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: even though it seems strange at times. How much of 526 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 1: a role did Belichick have in your tenure there with 527 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: the Patriots with the offense, Uh, you know, it's it's 528 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: it's an interesting question because you know, we had really 529 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: strong people that were coaching the offensive side of the ball, right, 530 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,719 Speaker 1: Like I look back and you know, Charlie Weiss, you know, 531 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: you know he was going to tell coach what he 532 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: wanted to do and why he thought that was the 533 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: way to go. And and and there's always struggles on 534 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 1: a coaching staff, right the offensive line coach is pushing 535 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: for more past plays. The quarterback, especially Tom Brady, and 536 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: the quarterback coaches are all looking for different ways to 537 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: you know, get fancy and cute with the ball. And 538 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: so there's this struggle on on play calls and how 539 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: we open and who's really the offensive coordinator on some staffs. 540 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: But Bill, you know, to answer your question, Bill Belichick 541 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: had a lot to do with our offense. You know, 542 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: everybody talks about him as a defensive coach, but you 543 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: know Bill really understands, you know, not just the scheme, 544 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: but but how the other side is going to look at, 545 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: you know, defending against what you do beat right, And 546 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: Bill's a big proponent of, Hey, here's the three things 547 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: that we have to do that that's what we did 548 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 1: before every matchup. Here's what we have to do offensively, 549 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: here's what we have to do on the defensive side 550 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:11,959 Speaker 1: of the ball, and here's what we have to do 551 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: on special teams. And there'll be three points to each 552 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: week as we prepared. So you know, he knew as 553 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: much on the offensive side as he certainly did on 554 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: the defensive side. Who do you think is most responsible 555 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: for what happened in those two decades in New England? 556 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think if anybody looks at this 557 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: season and tries to make a comparison at this point 558 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: in time, how about how about this? How about this? 559 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: You can have Belichick as your coach or Brady as 560 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: your quarterback? This is your rookie year. Yeah, I mean 561 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: you gotta go with Bill Belichick for a lot of reasons, right, 562 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: un Can he win without Tom Brady? Yeah? I think 563 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: he can. I mean we did in two thousand and eight. Right, 564 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: if you want a case study to look at, you know, 565 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: we had a guy in Matt Castle, you know who 566 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: filled in did a great job, same coach, same Bill Belichick. Right, 567 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: So I don't look at what happened this season and 568 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: try to compare it in the realm of who's more 569 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: important Tom Brady or Bill Belichick. Look, those are two 570 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: of the most dynamic people to play in the game. Right, 571 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: But you think you could have won super Bowls with Bledshell? Yeah? Yeah, 572 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: I think we could have. For server, you know, I 573 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't put either one of those guys down, right, I 574 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: mean but it is a system, right, New England is 575 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: a system kind of scheme. I mean it always has been, 576 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: always will be with Bill Belichick as the head coach. 577 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: But Tom was the system though he's his system unto himself, 578 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: isn't he he is now? He is now, and look 579 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: he has been for a long time. So you know, 580 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: look is there's no surprise that Tom Brady is in 581 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl right. The fact that he went to 582 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: Tampa kind of shocked me. You know, there's a lot 583 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: of things that I found interesting. I didn't think that, 584 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: you know, I wasn't somebody that said, hey, just because 585 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's in Tampa, they're going to go to the 586 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: super Bowl. But it's not a surprise. Do you ever 587 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: have a drink with Belichick. I've been drinking around him. 588 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: I saw him. I remember when the transition happened and 589 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: he went from like only football and everything in football 590 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 1: to then the Bill Belichick that we kind of know 591 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: now today that will maybe go down to the Islands 592 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: and enjoy a little bit more golf. So I've seen 593 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: him relax and cut loose. Do you have a Belichick 594 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: story that I haven't heard? I've got a vault, but 595 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: you can't get in trouble now, Matt. Oh, listen, you 596 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: just looked over your shoulder when I ask you that question, 597 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: as if as if there was somebody there going Matt, 598 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: don't do that. Yeah, like Pete his dad. My wife 599 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: was worried that I was going to get fired or 600 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: let go every week, every week because I was always 601 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: up to something that no good. I give me a 602 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: Belichick story, all right. So there was a time, and 603 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: I've told this before, but this is a great one. 604 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: There was a time We're at the Pro Bowl and 605 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 1: we had one of my teammates that was there as well, 606 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: and he came as an alternate, and I told him 607 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: while he was hanging out with a lot of guys 608 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: that were more tenured than he that when you're at 609 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, you don't pay for drinks, and especially 610 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: if your coaching staff is there. I said, hey, look, 611 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: here's Bill's room. And I made it a point to 612 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: get Bill's room number, and I said, just filled out, 613 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 1: put his room number on there, and sign his name. 614 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: So I thought it would be funny. I didn't think 615 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: he would actually do it, but hey, we're just having 616 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: fun little conversation. Well, about five hours later, and after 617 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,239 Speaker 1: he'd been hanging out with all the old timers who 618 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: were already putting all their drinks on his bill anyway, 619 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: which he didn't know. The young bucks never figured that 620 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: out until it's too late. I see him walking from 621 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: one side of the pool area to the other to 622 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: hand Bill the check cart. It's in his hand, and 623 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm the only person in the whole area that knew 624 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: what was happening. So I remember I grabbed. I grabbed 625 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: one of my teammates. I'm like, bro, you've got to 626 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: see this. You have no idea what's about to happen, 627 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: but it's gonna get weird. And he walks up. He's like, 628 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: I appreciate you, Bill, I appreciate it. And Bill has 629 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: no idea what he's talking about. But he did sign it, 630 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: and he did pay for it. Brady was a pretty 631 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: good beer chugger, right, one of the best. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, 632 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: Ross Tucker said that he was he was up there. 633 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: Yeah you won't. You won't see any evidence of that. 634 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 1: I think that stopped many years ago, about the time 635 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: the whole TV twelve method came out. Apparently water saved 636 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: you from getting to burn more than alcohol, so what 637 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: if we were doing shots of kale. Do you think 638 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: that he would be graded chugging kale? Just stay away 639 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: from strawberries and everything else is okay. But he wasn't 640 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: jefferent or strange when you were there. Um no, I mean, look, 641 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: he's always had his method. I mean from the very beginning, 642 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,880 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, before before he was ever the starter. 643 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: When I got to New England, the only person I 644 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: knew in the New England region was a guy named 645 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: Dave Nugent who I went to Purdue with and was 646 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: a roommate and came in with the class of the 647 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: year before with Tom Brady. So you know, I got 648 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: to see Tommy, you know, as the guy driving the 649 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: yellow Jeep that was given to him by the dealer. 650 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 1: That wasn't the starter. And but but even then, you know, 651 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: the guy always had a method to everything he did 652 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: and was always trying to do it at a very 653 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: high level. But what happens when he shows up with Giselle? 654 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: Were you Were you still there when Giselle makes her 655 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: first appearance or you find out Brady is dating Giselle? Yeah, yeah, 656 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: I was there when they were married. I mean it 657 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: was yeah, I mean and there there were some other 658 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: interesting moments before that too that that you know, we 659 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,439 Speaker 1: we poked fun at. But yeah, yeah, I mean we 660 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: we saw the whole transformation and the clothes and like 661 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: just everything about him. He had a makeover. Right. Well, 662 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: now you're going to force me to do this. Okay, 663 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: so imagine this for me, Dan, Okay, I'm an offensive lineman. 664 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: I roll out of bed at six am. We have 665 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: a team meeting at seven am every single day. If 666 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: you're late, you're probably going to be fired. And we've 667 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: actually seen evidence of that in the form of a 668 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: running back. Right, so you're not going to be late. 669 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: But when I roll out of bed as an offensive lineman, fat, sweaty, sloppy, 670 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: I don't do anything other than just putting on whatever 671 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 1: was laying next to my bed. I'd walk into the facility, 672 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: I drop all that stuff, put on my workout stuff, 673 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: and I walk into the meeting. Right. Let me contrast 674 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: that with a Tom Brady. When Tom Brady walks in 675 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: and on this particular day, he comes in with the 676 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: skinny jeans that taper all the way to a very 677 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: tight point, with the designer boots that were made by 678 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: tom Ford Custom designed, you know, unbelievable leather, the whole 679 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: nine polish to the nth degree on the upper half 680 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: of him. He's wearing a cardigan. I'm talking straight out 681 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: of like mister Rogers cardigan. And this cardigan has a 682 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 1: giant lapel. It's got wool knitted by some scherpa in 683 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: the himlaas. It has hand carved buttons the size of 684 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: my hand that are really cool looking. And I'm kind 685 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: of angry that this is what I see walking in 686 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: So I bust his chops all the time. And on 687 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: this particular day, I decided it was a good opportunity 688 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 1: for me to go to his locker while he was 689 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 1: working on becoming a better player and studying plays, and 690 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: I put on his so called charpa cardigan, and I 691 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: went and I worked out in it. Now, the fun 692 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: part is is that the only thing I put on 693 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: was the cardigan, literally the only thing. So when he 694 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: was driving home to his beautiful place in Boston, where 695 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: I knew he wasn't going to be able to get 696 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 1: away from the ickyness of me sending a picture of 697 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: working out in that cardigan, I took a lot of 698 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 1: joy in that. Did he keep it I think he 699 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 1: probably burn it on the side of ninety three the Boston. 700 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: It's great to touch base with you again, Matt. I 701 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,959 Speaker 1: hope you're doing well and the Light Foundation as well. 702 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: You know, thanks for joining us.

I've been a 755 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: while since I've spoken to Barry. You know, you got 756 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford on his way to Los Angeles, and you're 757 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: bringing in Jared Golf. I think Barry was involved in 758 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 1: this conversation. I don't know how much of a role 759 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: he played in the decision, but I think that Barry 760 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 1: was at least in the building with the team. I 761 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 1: was looking at some numbers with Barry Sanders. Barry Sanders 762 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 1: in a ten year period rushed for fifteen thousand yards. Yeah, 763 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 1: so ten years eighty nine to ninety eight, Barry rushed 764 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: for fifteen thousand yards, most in any ten years span 765 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 1: in NFL history. And he rushed for over a thousand 766 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 1: yards in all ten of his NFL seasons. In the 767 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: twenty two years since his retirement, the Lions have had 768 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:07,240 Speaker 1: just four individual one thousand yards seasons. Yes, Barry averaged 769 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 1: one hundred yards a game in his second to last season. 770 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: Second to last, at age twenty nine, he ran for 771 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: two fifty three yards, averaging six point one yards to carry. Yeah, 772 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: he averaged one hundred and twenty eight yards a game 773 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,880 Speaker 1: at age twenty nine. But losing will do that to you, though, 774 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 1: where even though he was great at what he was doing, 775 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:31,240 Speaker 1: and probably I think he six playoff games, they won one, 776 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: and and I had a great relationship with Barry back 777 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: then from his days at Oklahoma State to when his 778 00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: car broke down in route to making the announcement he 779 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: was leaving to go pro after his junior year, but 780 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 1: he just didn't He wanted to win and he saw 781 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: Emmett And I don't know if there was any eight 782 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: jealousy with Barry. I never heard him say something negative 783 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: even when he could have run. He could have won 784 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: the rushing title, and I think Wayne Faunt said, do 785 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: you want to go back in and win the rushing title? 786 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: And I think he only needed like ten yards to 787 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 1: beat Christian Okoya and Barry goes, no, let my backup, 788 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 1: go in and run. I mean, that's as selfless as 789 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 1: you could possibly get. But I think the losing really 790 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 1: got to him, and he didn't have joy when he 791 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 1: was doing it, even though it looked like he was 792 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,879 Speaker 1: having a whole lot of fun. We had joy watching him. 793 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: But I think he just got to that point where 794 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,240 Speaker 1: and I'll still never forget that where his agent calls 795 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 1: me up and says, you know, Barry's going to be 796 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: on a flight and he's going to London. And this 797 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: is after they lost a game in the last game, 798 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: and he says, I believe he's going to retire. And 799 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 1: Peter Schaeffer called me and I was like, oh my god, 800 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:49,959 Speaker 1: this is a Sunday night and I'm doing Sports Center 801 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 1: and he's going I think he's going to retire, and 802 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: he he just wanted to check out. He was just 803 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: he's the most unique athlete I've ever been around. Truly 804 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: is most unique athlete I've ever been around. He'll join us, 805 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:11,240 Speaker 1: coming up here.
