Now, 15 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 2: I feel like if you're not a Dodger fan, then 16 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 2: you'll be a Blue Jay fan. You'll probably root against 17 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: the Dodgers, maybe more than you're rooting for the Blue Jays. 18 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 2: Don Mattingly, who is a bench coach for the Blue 19 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 2: Jays former Dodger manager, will join us in an hour 20 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: and from now so.

I didn't realize this. Now, 46 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: John Tesh who was the one who came up with 47 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 2: roundball Rock, He of course was a host co host 48 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 2: on Entertainment Tonight. He's going to join us, I believe 49 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: on Friday. And I think he's going to be performing 50 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 2: this on the show on Friday from what I'm told. 51 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: But I didn't realize this. We were in South Bend 52 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: and I had a downtime and pritzy downtime as far 53 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: as we weren't on the show. So Todd goes, do 54 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: you want to see what's on my phone? Because I 55 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 2: was curious what kind of music Todd had on his phone, 56 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: and he started running down all the theme songs and 57 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: he didn't have necessarily songs. Have Billy Joel and Holland 58 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: Oates and then it'll be all of these different theme 59 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 2: songs for different shows. How many do you have theme 60 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: songs on your phone? Toddler? 61 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 5: I probably have at least twenty. When I was a 62 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 5: little kid. When I graduated junior high school, my parents 63 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 5: got me this TV radio. It had a cassette recorder 64 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 5: and a little black and white TV, and I thought 65 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 5: it was the coolest thing ever that you could have 66 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 5: a radio and a TV and you can carry it around. 67 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 5: And I started recording. I hope I could find the 68 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 5: cassette somewhere in my basement. All my favorite TV shows 69 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 5: the theme songs, and I would record them. And then 70 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 5: they actually people started actually doing that and sung that 71 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 5: like at two o'clock in the morning, but different strokes, 72 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 5: Facts of Live, Twilight Zone, Honeymooner's Star Trek, Odd Couple. 73 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 5: I would like record, you know, Cheers, whatever I could 74 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 5: think of, and I would record all the TV theme songs. 75 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you had the sports theme songs the shows. 76 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 5: Monday Night Baseball and Sunday Night Football. 77 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 2: That was Monday Night Baseball, and then you had Monday 78 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: Night Football. 79 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, just I was fascinated by There was almost 80 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 5: as fun as the actual games. 81 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 6: The opening things though. 82 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 2: Thank you Todd, Thunder over the Rockets, double overtime, the 83 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: Warriors over the Lakers. Luca had a big night, but 84 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 2: not gonna have Lebron for a little while. I wonder 85 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: what kind of record they're going to salvage, you know, 86 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 2: going through three weeks, maybe a month, And I wouldn't 87 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 2: hurry Lebron back. I mean, you want to make sure 88 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 2: that you're maybe a top four team. I don't know 89 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: if they're a top four team this year, but you 90 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 2: know they could be good enough where they can start 91 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 2: on the road in the postseason. I know, here we 92 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: are in October thinking about the postseason, but if I'm 93 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: the Lakers, I have to think that with Lebron because 94 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: at some point, you know, he doesn't act like Lebron. 95 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: What is his season twenty three for him? I mean, 96 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 2: it's remarkable what he's been able to do, but how 97 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: often are you going to be able to rely on 98 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: him to be There's going to be pockets where Lebron 99 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: will be Lebron, But this is Luca's team and Lebron 100 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: knows that, and I think you know there'll be nights 101 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 2: where Luca will lean on him and Lebron will have 102 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 2: those big nights. I just wouldn't expect that on a 103 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: consistent basis, and trying to modify your game is really 104 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: hard for a star where you're not the guy on 105 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 2: the team, but you've still played a very high level. 106 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: You know, Kevin Durant has been able to do that. 107 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: I thought, now, this guy's not an all time great, 108 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: but I thought what Chris Bosh did when he was 109 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 2: in Miami was that's really the poster child for what 110 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 2: do you want me to do? I'm an All Star 111 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 2: in Toronto. I'll play whatever role you want me to. 112 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 2: Kevin Love did that too, where you find your role? Now, 113 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: these are all time top ten players. This is different. 114 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: This is Lebron saying, Okay, I'm one of the three 115 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 2: greatest players of all time. It's his team. Now what 116 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 2: role do I play? Steph Curry is still the star 117 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: on his team, but he's got Jimmy Butler there, and 118 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler can still take over a game, and maybe 119 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: this Steph has fewer shots. I would be gearing up 120 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: for the postseason for Steph the Rockets with KD I 121 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: would be gearing up for the postseason. There's only a 122 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: couple of closers in the game. When you think about it, 123 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: game on the line, give him the ball. You know 124 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: what's going to happen. It's just a matter of where 125 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 2: he's going to score. And I think when you have 126 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: those players, you know, we have closers in the NFL. 127 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: Mahomes is a closer, very few, but there are closers 128 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,119 Speaker 2: and that's why they get paid what they get paid. 129 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: But with the Lakers, I think the over under according 130 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 2: to DraftKings is forty seven. So they're not going to 131 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: be an elite team this year. But then what are 132 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: they going to be maybe in May. That's a big 133 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 2: curiosity I have. And Luca looks great. I mean, that 134 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 2: guy's streamline looks great, and that's why I picked him 135 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 2: for MVP. I thought he's going to show people. He's 136 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 2: going to get the opportunity. It's his team and he's 137 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 2: going to be He'll be front and center. That's another thing. 138 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: When people were talking about Shay Gilgis and they're like, 139 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 2: who is this guy? And you probably didn't watch oka see, 140 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 2: but then you were forced to watch when you got 141 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: to the NBA Finals and you go, Okay, I get it. 142 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 2: Sometimes you have to go out of your way to 143 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 2: see greatness, and Shay Gilgess is one of those players 144 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: and even winning a title, being the MVP. I don't 145 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: know how much TV time he'll get. They should get more. 146 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: But you're watching him. He's not one of those players 147 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: where you go, man, oh man, wow, it's like damn, 148 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: Like I just watched him, and it's just he repeats. 149 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 2: It's like here he goes again, There he goes again, 150 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 2: There he goes again, and he keeps coming at you. 151 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 2: But he doesn't do anything. He's not dunking, he's not 152 00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: shooting threes. There's nothing that's wildly exploded. But he doesn't 153 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: have to be. He's not trying to be. It's the 154 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 2: players who do try that and they think they get 155 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: degree of difficulty points. I don't care Anthony Edwards. He's 156 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 2: as explosive athletic as anybody in the game. He doesn't 157 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 2: have to be that. But when there are those moments, 158 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: John Morant, same way, Zion Williamson. I want you to 159 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: be consistently great, not a highlight and a lot of 160 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 2: players approach the game in highlight form. Hey do you 161 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 2: see that play? Yeah? I want to see plays plural. 162 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 2: Now do you see that dunk? Yeah? He only had 163 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 2: thirteen points. Yeah, but that dunk made Sports Center. That's 164 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: not what I want and it's not fair to say 165 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: to Shay Gilgess, but boringly awesome he is. It's just repetitive. 166 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, Paul, if you look at how the game ended 167 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 4: double overtime. He's got the ball, Durant switches on him. 168 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 4: He went back and forth and back and forth with 169 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 4: the ball, never drove, never shot and wait until Durant 170 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 4: left his feet, jumped into him, got two free throws 171 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 4: and went home. 172 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 6: That's it. 173 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 2: Yep, uh Seaton want's poll question for our two on 174 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 2: this program. Yeah, we got a few of them up 175 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,199 Speaker 2: there right now. By the way, I'm never going to 176 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 2: get to where the Ravens are. Like they took away toys. 177 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: They took away like ping pong, and the Baltimore Sun 178 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 2: reported this that now I think they're bringing it back. 179 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: Are they bringing all the toys back or did they 180 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 2: take the toys out of the locker room? 181 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 4: Well, according to the Baltimore Sun, it was some type 182 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 4: of response to the one and five record that they're 183 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 4: taking away all the toys and video games. 184 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 2: Well, we didn't win the Sports Emmy. Again. I don't 185 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 2: know do I take away the golf simulator, the pinball machine, 186 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 2: or maybe the beer on DAP or basketball hoop for pickleball. 187 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 2: I don't want to do that, but our standards apparently 188 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: are a little bit higher than the Ravens here. But 189 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 2: I think there did Harball take these things out or 190 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: did he put them back in, because I I've heard 191 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 2: both both things. 192 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 3: We're diving into the okay, weep gate? 193 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, Todd, it seems. 194 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 5: So petty and childish. Did they think that was not 195 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 5: going to get out? I can't imagine they would want 196 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 5: anyone the public to know. And we're taking away the 197 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 5: video games of the Pink Punk table like they're eight 198 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 5: year old. 199 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 2: I think corn hole they were taking that out. 200 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 3: Oh no, that's too much. 201 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's when you lose me, coach, all right. Seeton 202 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 2: poll question for hour or. 203 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 7: Two best part of NBA being back on NBC right 204 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 7: now round Ball rock has about sixty percent of that vote. 205 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 7: Most threatening team last night was the Rockets. I very 206 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 7: much disagree with that. And who are you rooting for 207 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 7: Dodgers or Blue Jays right now? Seventy two percent of 208 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 7: the audience rooting for the blue Jays. 209 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 2: Okay, we'll talk to Donnie Baseball.

By the way, 214 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 2: people whenever we talk about Don Mattingly, I did a 215 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 2: story on Donnie Baseball. I think this is nineteen eighty 216 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 2: three or nineteen eighty four, and I was at Yankee 217 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 2: Stadium interviewing don maddingly and I was working at CNN, 218 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: And this is on the internet.

Not a Hall of Fame 254 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 2: career at CNN, though, But you can't teach hustle. And 255 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 2: I had hustle back then, teacher kids, all right, I 256 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 2: respected uh Nick in Indianapolis, where we take a break 257 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: and welcome back Ross Tucker, Hi, Nick, Hey. 258 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 10: DP and boys. Sorry mischief my alma monitor this last weekend, 259 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 10: but I had a little trivia for you. So my 260 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 10: grandfather played with the Four Horsemen team nineteen twenty four 261 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 10: of the first national championship team. And back then, when 262 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 10: the Big Time was founding was being formed, it was 263 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 10: very anti Catholic in the United States. So new Rockney said, 264 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 10: I'm going to take our small team out, an Indiana 265 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 10: Catholic team on the road. So they play at the 266 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 10: Polo Grounds in New York, playt in Chicago and of 267 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 10: course USC that's where it stemmed from the rivalry. So 268 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 10: now you know, fast forward to today, the Dallasism is 269 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 10: the most popular religion in the United States. It's kind 270 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 10: of a good point isolated to the region of the country. 271 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 10: So that's where we're taking a Catholic school on the 272 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 10: road kind of came from. So now, especially with the 273 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 10: Big ten spinning East Coast and West Coast, I think 274 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 10: Nadaan could join the Big Ten now, but it was 275 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 10: kind of a that's why I wouldn't. 276 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 2: I wouldn't join, Thank you, Nick, Like, what's the upside? 277 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 2: If the goal is to make the playoffs, then stay independent, 278 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 2: as Pete Bbakua, the athletic director said, like, you've got 279 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 2: to be really good to be relevant, really relevant, and 280 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: as an independent, the only thing I'd be concerned about 281 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 2: is my schedule. If you're not gonna have USC and 282 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: you're not gonna have Michigan, Okay, those are marquee matchups there. 283 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: Who are going to be your hammers where you're able 284 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: to show the voters, hey, we can compete with the 285 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 2: best teams. You know, you're going to have the military academies. 286 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 2: That's not going to do it. You're going to have 287 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 2: some teams in the ACC that's not going to do it. 288 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 2: That would be my but it's still Notre Dame and 289 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: they know they need Notre Dame. The playoffs are better 290 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: with Notre Dame. And if you expand to sixteen, I 291 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 2: mean that's what the athletic director at Notre Dame said, Hey, 292 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 2: we're going to sixteen. That makes the most sense of 293 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 2: going to a sixteen team playoff, But I can't see 294 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 2: them joining. Marcus Freeman said recently that you know, he 295 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 2: could see maybe a scenario where they join a conference. 296 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 2: I wouldn't. You got standalone. You don't have to share 297 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 2: any money with anybody. 298 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, pol Three of Notre Dame's first four games this 299 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 4: year were Miami, Texas A and m and Arkansas. That's 300 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,239 Speaker 4: a pretty nice scheduling early. 301 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 2: If you're able to keep that, because some of these 302 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 2: conferences going to nine conference games and they may lose 303 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 2: that game. Although it's great for these you know, for 304 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 2: Miami to play Notre Dame A and m to play 305 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 2: at Notre Dame USC, but USC's probably you know, as 306 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: I've said before, Lincoln Roley is like, man, we play tough, 307 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 2: you know enough schedule here. Michigan same way, and maybe 308 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 2: that's why we're losing Notre Dame, which is unfortunate. We'll 309 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 2: take a break. Ross Tucker will join us coming up 310 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 2: next year on The Dan Patrick Show. 311 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan 312 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific 313 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 314 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 6: Hey it's me Rob Parker. 315 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 11: Check out my weekly MLB podcast, Inside the Parker for 316 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 11: twenty two minutes of pipeing hop baseball talk featuring the 317 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 11: biggest names of newsmakers in the sport.

Something better 330 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 2: happened here soon for the Vikings, certainly in that division. 331 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 12: Well, there's a lot of fascinating aspects of it, because 332 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 12: think about this for a second, Dan, They initially wanted 333 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 12: Sam Darnold back by multiple reports as their quarterback because 334 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 12: I think they were uncertain about just how ready JJ 335 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 12: McCarthy was to start Week one, and that maybe he 336 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 12: would need some time or maybe this year wouldn't even 337 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 12: happen for him coming off the injury. I thought it 338 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 12: was really telling that Tom Pelisero from NFL Network came 339 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 12: on my show, The Ross Tucker Podcast in the offseason 340 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 12: and he said that the Vikings actually offered Daniel Jones 341 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 12: more guaranteed money than he took to go to Indy. 342 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 12: And so a few weeks ago for CBS, when I 343 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 12: called that Colts Titans game, I asked Daniel Jones about 344 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 12: that and he said he felt like the opportunity was 345 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 12: better in Indy because of the quarterback situation. 346 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 6: So that's a crazy dynamic to me. 347 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 12: Dan that the Vikings knew that they thought Daniel Jones 348 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 12: could play pretty well and they wanted to have a 349 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 12: good quarterback. They weren't sure about McCarthy, so they offered 350 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 12: Daniel Jones over fourteen million guaranteed. 351 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 6: But Daniel Jones knew. 352 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 12: Hey, McCarthy's going to be their guy. He didn't want 353 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 12: to have that hanging over his shoulder. He could tell 354 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 12: the Colts were kind of moving on from Richardson, so he. 355 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 6: Goes to Indy. The Colts are unbelievable. 356 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 12: He's a legit MVP candidate Darnold's playing fantastic. 357 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 6: I have the Seahawks as the fifth best team in 358 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 6: football right now. 359 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 12: Meanwhile, the Vikings are letting JJ McCarthy get a one 360 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 12: hundred percent healed from this high ankle sprain. They're going 361 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 12: with Carson Wentz and he has been up and down, 362 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,959 Speaker 12: which is pretty much the story of his career. 363 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 2: Woody Johnson got in front of a microphone and took 364 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 2: a shot at his quarterback, Justin Fields. This is what 365 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 2: it sounded like yesterday. 366 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 3: It looks like he's turning around parts of it. 367 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 4: You know, it's hard when you have a quarterback with 368 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 4: you know, with a rating that we've got, you know, 369 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 4: I mean, he. 370 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 2: Has the ability, but something just is not driving. 371 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 4: But if you look at any any head coach of 372 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 4: the quarterback like that, you're going. 373 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 2: To see similar results if you across the league. You 374 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: have to play consistently. 375 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 3: At that position, and that's what we're going to try 376 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 3: to do. Well, we can just complete a pass, it 377 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 3: would look good. 378 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 2: You know, you got to complete some path. 379 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 3: You got to convince him that you can do something. 380 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 2: Okay, who is the person who signed Justin fil to 381 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 2: that two year guaranteed contract that they're still on the 382 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 2: hook for. I think thirty million dollars supposed to make 383 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 2: twenty million. He approved it, right, He's the one who 384 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 2: brought in Justin Fields, right. 385 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 6: Well, at a minimum. 386 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 12: He hired Darren Muji, the GM, the new GM, and 387 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 12: Aaron Glenn, and Mouji made the decision to go ahead 388 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 12: and bring in Justin Fields. And you're right, Dan, he 389 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 12: has ten million dollars more guaranteed next year. So whether 390 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,120 Speaker 12: or not Muji had to run it past Woody Johnson, 391 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 12: my guess is, when you're signing a guy to be 392 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 12: the franchise quarterback, you probably do talk about that with 393 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 12: the owner. I just I have no idea what he 394 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 12: could think he was possibly gaining by that, Dan, I 395 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 12: think the goal was to defend Aaron Glenn. Yeah, and 396 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 12: to support Aaron Glenn, which I really respect. Why would 397 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 12: you feel the need to throw Justin Fields on under 398 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 12: the bus to that level. I mean, listen, even if 399 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 12: they want to move on from Justin Fields, maybe somebody 400 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 12: else would want him if they have an injury or 401 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 12: in the offseason, like maybe you're trying to trade the guy. 402 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 12: All he did was make his own GM look really, 403 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 12: really bad. And by the way, Woodie, the team is 404 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 12: zero to seven, they're the only team that hasn't won 405 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 12: a football game. Go ahead and look up all the 406 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 12: other quarterbacks in the NFL and some of the guys 407 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 12: that have won games this year. As starting corporate, you 408 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 12: could have had Mac Jones. Mac Jones, I think is 409 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,959 Speaker 12: like four to one. You could have signed him if 410 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 12: you want. I mean, there's plenty of other quarterbacks. Joe Flacco. 411 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 12: You ever heard of him? I think he's played for 412 00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 12: your team twice already. He went out there to Cincinnati 413 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 12: and won a game right away. 414 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 6: So this whole. 415 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 12: Notion that it's all because of the quarterback is a 416 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 12: little bit silly, especially when you consider some of the 417 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 12: coaching decisions, like I'll never get over whatever that was 418 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 12: at the end of the first half for Aaron Glenn 419 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 12: in the game against the Broncos in Europe, when they 420 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 12: just let thirty five seconds go off the clock and 421 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:27,479 Speaker 12: just stood there and went to halftime at midfield. It's bad, 422 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 12: and Woody Johnson just made it worse. 423 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: You had the Bengals and Steelers last week. 424 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, that was awesome. 425 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 2: Okay, they're just asking Joe Flacco. We're going to protect 426 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 2: you and then just throw the ball. Right. Why couldn't 427 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 2: Jake Browning do what Joe Flaco's doing, you. 428 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 12: Know, being around a lot of those people there, Dan, 429 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 12: they're still trying to figure that out because two years ago, 430 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 12: in twenty twenty three, when Burrow went down, Browning played 431 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 12: really well and because of that he got a new 432 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 12: contract there, I mean Browning, they thought they had a 433 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 12: top five, certainly top ten backup quarterback in the NFL. 434 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 12: And it's almost like when Burrow went down this time. 435 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 12: I don't know if it was the pressure or the 436 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 12: weight of it, but Browning just didn't play very well. 437 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 12: You know, maybe he thought it was his opportunity to 438 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 12: become a starter somewhere and put too much pressure himself. 439 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 12: That's the beauty of Joe Flacco. He just doesn't care it, 440 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 12: does Joe. I mean, he's made two hundred million dollars. Okay, 441 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 12: the guys won a Super Bowl MVP. Joe's out there 442 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 12: just slinging it and that was a hilarious game, Dan, 443 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,479 Speaker 12: because I'm in the booth and I said they should 444 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 12: just throw the ball to Jamar Chase every play, whether 445 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 12: it was Ramsey or Darius slay or he was getting 446 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 12: four or five yards of separation. 447 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 2: He had twenty three targets. They threw the ball to 448 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase twenty three times. 449 00:24:58,520 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 6: Not enough. 450 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 12: If you asked I would, I would be the most 451 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 12: hilarious offensive coordinator in NFL history. 452 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 6: All Right, throw the ball at Jamar again. 453 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 12: Throw the ball at Jamar if they bracket him or 454 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 12: did it a couple times, then throw it to one 455 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 12: of the other guys like t Higgins wide open or 456 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 12: Yosie Bosh or Fan. 457 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 6: I mean, I would say this. 458 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 12: I've been a little skeptical at times of just how 459 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 12: much wide receivers get paid now and Chase making whatever 460 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 12: he's making thirty six million dollars a year. That was 461 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 12: a game where I totally saw it because he was unstoppable. 462 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 6: And then when you went out of your way to 463 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 6: bracket him. 464 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 12: Which means the corners on outside of him, the safety's 465 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 12: inside of him, then you're leaving the middle of the 466 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 12: field open and Yosi Bosh has a big, big catch, 467 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 12: Nolah Fan has the touchdown. I really thought that was 468 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 12: a little bit eye opening, even for me in the 469 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 12: just the value that you can have created by a 470 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 12: receiver that's as unstoppable as Jamar. 471 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 2: Chase Tucker, CBS Sports, Westwood One, NFL college football analyst 472 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 2: and host of the Ross Tucker Football podcast in the 473 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 2: Westwood One Radio booth for Tomorrow night, Vikings and the Chargers. 474 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 2: How did Mike McDaniels hold on to his job this week? 475 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 12: Well, probably because the owner has one of two schools 476 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 12: of thought. So there's the school of thought that when 477 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 12: you want to move on from a guy, just move 478 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 12: on from him, cut bait and move forward. There became 479 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 12: a few years there, and I want to say it 480 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 12: was maybe twenty twenty twenty three, where owners became very 481 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 12: hesitant to fire coaches in season because they were nervous 482 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 12: that the interim coach would turn things around and lead 483 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 12: the team to a bunch of wins, and that the 484 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 12: pressure would then be on them to hire the interim 485 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 12: head coach. 486 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 2: Well, that's the logic the Raiders a couple of years ago. 487 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 2: Didn't it happen with the Raiders? 488 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 12: Raiders Antonio Pierce, that's exactly right. Twenty twenty three, they 489 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 12: fire McDaniels, Pierce comes in, they have a lot of success, 490 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 12: and there's a lot of pressure on Mark Davis to 491 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 12: keep him because remember a couple of years prior to that, 492 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 12: he had fired John Gruden middle of the year, gone 493 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 12: with Bisaccio and the Raiders made the playoffs, and the 494 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 12: Raiders were. 495 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 6: In the playoffs and almost beat the Bengals. 496 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 12: In the year the Bengals went to the Super Bowl, 497 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 12: he didn't hire Bisaccia, he hired McDaniels. He regretted it, 498 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 12: so he felt like he had to give Antonio Pierce 499 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 12: that chance. That is what Look, I don't know a 500 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 12: single person that thinks Mike mate Daniel will be the 501 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 12: head coach of the Miami Dolphins in twenty twenty six. 502 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 6: Not a single person. 503 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 12: So, and my guess is Stephen Ross included. So he's 504 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 12: electing the next take a chance that he makes Anthony Weaver, 505 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 12: the young you know, well thought of decoordinator the head coach. 506 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 12: Weaver goes on a run. All the players say, we 507 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 12: want Weaver, we want Weaver. I don't think Stephen Ross 508 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 12: wants that. 509 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 2: To deal with that, John Harball is taking away all 510 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 2: the locker room toys with the Ravens. According to the 511 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 2: Baltimore Sun, what is what is that going to do 512 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: for this team? 513 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 6: Oh? 514 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 12: Man, you know what's amazing, it's so funny, like we 515 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 12: got to google this or maybe you guys can talk 516 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 12: about it. Depending on whether the team is struggling or 517 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 12: when the new coach comes in, I've seen reports on 518 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 12: both of these over the years. A new head coach 519 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 12: comes in, he brings in a ping pong table and 520 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 12: the player lounge, and it's such a positive for the 521 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 12: team because the guys are all hanging out together and 522 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 12: they're competing, like the Eagles have ping pong tables everywhere, 523 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 12: and Hurts like to do it and pool and Hurts 524 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 12: does it, and he competes to the other guys, and 525 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 12: Sirianni loves it because they're harnessing their. 526 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 6: Competitive edge and they're spending time together. 527 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 12: But then there's also the flip side where they take 528 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 12: it away and oh, now we're getting serious. 529 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 6: It's funny. I mean to me, it just kind of 530 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 6: makes me. I will say this. 531 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 12: I once played with a player that was definitely top thing. 532 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 12: It might have been a top five pick. The most 533 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 12: animated I ever saw him in three years was when 534 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 12: he was playing video games in the player's lounge. I mean, 535 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 12: way more animated, playing Halo or whatever. 536 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 6: That thing was called than he was on the field in. 537 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 12: A real NFL game, like a real game with eighty 538 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,479 Speaker 12: thousand people and this other guy trying to embarrass you. 539 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 6: That didn't really stoke his fire. That didn't do it 540 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 6: for him. 541 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 12: But being on a big leather couch, you know, in 542 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 12: the player's lounge playing Hey, that's when he would get 543 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 12: really animated and fired up. 544 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 6: That team who will remain nameless. 545 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 12: Should have gotten rid of the whole player lounge, or 546 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 12: at least the video games, or at a minimum, banned 547 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 12: that particular player for being able to play video games. 548 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: Well, do we want to guess? So you played for 549 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 2: Washington Cowboys, Bill's Patriots, any other team. 550 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 12: No, but it's pretty obvious if I gave you top ten, 551 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 12: top five pick and was there for three years. 552 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 6: I mean, if you got. 553 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: Your laying down bread crumbs here, I can solve the mystery. 554 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 2: I think Paulie's on it right now. So Ross didn't 555 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: spend too much time in a place, especially three years. Yeah, Paulie, 556 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 2: it has. 557 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 3: To be Washington. 558 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I thought. 559 00:30:53,560 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 6: Tell me, No, oh, three oh four. Well, I'm not 560 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 6: saying that. I'm not saying that. You guys got to 561 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 6: figure it out. 562 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 2: Okay, PAULI get the itam on, Polly, I'll work on that. 563 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 2: By the way, Sean Payton taking a shot at Russell Wilson, 564 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 2: and this is what the Broncos coach had to say. 565 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 13: I have a ton of respect for that organization. I 566 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 13: spent four of my early years there coordinating Super Bowl 567 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 13: first game in this stadium before nine to eleven close 568 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 13: with the Marittish family, and you know they found a 569 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 13: little spark with that quarterback. I was talking to John 570 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 13: Mayer not too long ago, and I said, we were 571 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 13: hoping that that change would have happened long long after 572 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 13: our game. 573 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 2: Okay, so he wanted to face Russell Wilson, his former quarterback. 574 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: Russ sent out a tweet classless but not surprised. Didn't 575 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 2: realize you're still bounty hunting fifteen plus years later through 576 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 2: the media and of course the bounty gate that cast 577 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 2: Sean Payton an entire season in twenty twelve. What do 578 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: you what do you make of this? 579 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 12: Well, Russell certainly escalated it, that's for sure. You know 580 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:14,239 Speaker 12: you could have spun Peyton's comment as being primarily a 581 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 12: compliment for Jackson Dart and now he didn't want to 582 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 12: have to face Jackson Dart. 583 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 6: You could have made that the emphasis. Certainly. 584 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 12: I think there was a dig at Russell Wilson in 585 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 12: there and that that was intentional, But you know, the 586 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 12: media took that and really made it seem like it 587 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 12: was all about Russell Wilson. Russell obviously didn't appreciate it, 588 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 12: was offended by it. 589 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 6: I would be two. I don't know if I would 590 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 6: have gone where Russell did with it. 591 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 12: But you know what, there are people that have the 592 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 12: mindset if you canna take a shot at me, I'm 593 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 12: gonna come back twice as hard and bring up your 594 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 12: lowest worst moment. 595 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 6: I don't care. 596 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 12: I'm not a fan of the Giants or the Bronco. 597 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 12: It's to me, it's just entertaining. Get your popcorn ready 598 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 12: and guess what. He was right, because the Bronco should 599 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 12: have lost that game. I mean, I can't believe. I 600 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 12: still can't believe the Giants lost a I've never seen 601 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 12: that before, thirty three points in the fourth quarter, but Dan, 602 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 12: it was twenty six to eight Giants with a little 603 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 12: over five minutes left in the whole game. 604 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 6: The Giants scored a touchdown in those remaining five minutes 605 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 6: that still lost the game. I mean, give me the. 606 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 12: Probability ESPN probability things or whatever like. 607 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 6: It must have been off the charts I can. 608 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 12: And they had the redhead kicker miss two extra points 609 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 12: he got fired yesterday. 610 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 6: I mean just a wild game. 611 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 12: So I guess on some level Sean Payton's right, because 612 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 12: I do not think Russell Wilson would have put up 613 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 12: thirty two points like that out in Denver. 614 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 2: Oh. Paulie looks like he's got an answer here. 615 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 4: This is the Ping Pong player that played harder at 616 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 4: ping No video game video games than he did on 617 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 4: the field.

Let me see 706 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 2: Dave in South Dakota. Hi, Dave, Hey, Dan thinks sticking 707 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 2: my call? Five ten two o five. 708 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 6: All right, So the. 709 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 16: Sudre Dame thing got me thinking over the weekend. You know, USC, Michigan, 710 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 16: even some of the schools, you know they're going to 711 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 16: start backing out of playing Notre Dame. Why don't these 712 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,399 Speaker 16: conferences they need Notre Dame just as bad as Notre 713 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 16: Dame needs them. Otherwise, they wouldn't worry about scheduling with them, 714 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 16: They wouldn't worry about letting them into the tournament at 715 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 16: the end of the year. Why not let Michigan, Alabama, 716 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 16: whoever from these conferences count that as a conference game. 717 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 16: It frees those schools up to be able to schedule 718 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 16: somebody else later, and it gives them a conference game 719 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 16: that's way tougher than playing well Kentucky, Iowa Northwestern. 720 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 2: So well, you know, some of these schools don't want 721 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 2: to have one of those, you know, Notre Dame's equality opponent. 722 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 2: You're already going through a very difficult schedule, your schedule 723 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 2: and your conference, and if they're adding a ninth game, 724 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 2: you only have so many games on your schedule, and 725 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 2: you got to schedule a couple of cupcakes here. I 726 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,800 Speaker 2: would love to have USC and Michigan continue the tradition, 727 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 2: but it's not going to happen. See in Glendora, they see. 728 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 8: Hey, what's up DP, Thanks for backing my call. Hope 729 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 8: all the guys are good. Hey, listen, I a couple 730 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 8: of years ago, I was my daughter was playing basketball, 731 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 8: you know, and right before her game, I was watching 732 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 8: all the varsity team warm up, and all they were 733 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 8: doing was shooting the threes. And I said to myself, 734 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,799 Speaker 8: what is Steph Curry doing of his game? 735 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 14: And how are we going to be in ten years? 736 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 14: And so I just mark Jackson's you know, his comments 737 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 14: were real. You know, and so I just want to 738 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 14: say that. You know, when I saw Shay Gildes Alexander play, 739 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 14: I said, this guy is bringing back the mid range game. 740 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:38,280 Speaker 14: It was like Kobe Bryant. 741 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 2: Well Durant. Durant had the mid range jumper for his 742 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 2: entire career. But thank you for the phone call, and 743 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 2: don't blame Steph Curry. Don't blame him. He was so 744 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 2: good at it that everybody wanted to do it. And 745 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 2: the game has revolved around the three point shot. But 746 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 2: I keep saying, there is so much room in between 747 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 2: the three and the paint. It's right, you could have it. 748 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, you see it with a lot of sports, actually 749 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 7: where because of video and highlights and things, the sport 750 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 7: has almost been perfected and it's like, analytically, this is 751 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 7: the best way to win, so we only do that. 752 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 2: But Durant mid range jumper made a career out of it. 753 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 2: SGA same thing. Final hour on this Wednesday, we'll talk 754 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 2: to the Toronto Blue Jays bench coach Don Mattingly more 755 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 2: of your phone Call's final hour.
