Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we did it. We made it to a Friday
Speaker 2: in one piece. I had the under everybody's here, the
Speaker 2: King of Content, the Minister of Humor, Fritzi in the
Speaker 2: back row, with Seaton, Marv and Paulie in the front row,
Speaker 2: yours truly and the back room guys. It's a Friday.
Speaker 2: It's a meat Friday. And yes, smoked baby back ribs,
Speaker 2: mac and cheese coleslaw ready to go. Later on, who
Speaker 2: has it better than we do? A right Steph Curry
Speaker 2: might have it better than we do. Watching him last
Speaker 2: night put on another clinic.
Speaker 3: You know, when you're the road team and the home.
Speaker 2: Crowd gives you a standing ovation, that pretty much you
Speaker 2: graduated into a really elite category. I remember when the
Speaker 2: Celtics would come to Atlanta with Larry Bird and they
Speaker 2: would pack the Omni because they wanted to see the Celtics,
Speaker 2: Jordan and the Bulls. When they came to town, fans
Speaker 2: packed the building because they wanted to see them. They
Speaker 2: almost wanted to see them be great against their own team.
Speaker 2: It's the ultimate compliment. But last night Steph Curry reminds
Speaker 2: us once again of how great he is, how easy
Speaker 2: he makes it look. And more importantly, the Golden State
Speaker 2: Warriors are something to deal with now because if you
Speaker 2: look at some of the numbers that they've had, they
Speaker 2: haven't been very good this year. They Kevin Durant turned
Speaker 2: down an opportunity to play with Golden State. They get
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler. Now, they won a two month stretch where
Speaker 2: they went thirteen and twenty three. Since they got Jimmy Butler,
Speaker 2: and you can say they're a contender, maybe a dark
Speaker 2: horse contender and inching up to be the sixth seed
Speaker 2: in the Western Conference. They hadn't won three in a
Speaker 2: row since November, they won five in a row. Jimmy
Speaker 2: Butler didn't play well last night. I mean is basically
Speaker 2: steph hurry. He put up fifty six points. He only
Speaker 2: needed twenty five shots and did the damage from three
Speaker 2: point range. Once again, it's so much fun to watch,
Speaker 2: and when you do watch, you're like, how does he
Speaker 2: get open? How does he get that ball away? He's
Speaker 2: not fast, doesn't necessarily have a great handle, has a
Speaker 2: quick release, but the ability to find spacing is so impressive.
Speaker 2: And he's doing this at thirty six years of age.
Speaker 2: It's not supposed to happen this way. If you did
Speaker 2: a combine and I put Anthony Edwards out there against
Speaker 2: Steph Curry, you'd be like, that guy is great. He's
Speaker 2: really good. That guy is an old timer. But it's
Speaker 2: understanding the game. We've talked about this many many times
Speaker 2: where you're just around players and you go, how did
Speaker 2: they get it done? They get it done because they
Speaker 2: understand the game. They do think things instead of just react.
Speaker 2: And that's the brilliance is Steph Curry. The form is awesome,
Speaker 2: the release quick, the ability to find his spot, and
Speaker 2: also his teammates realizing how he can find his spot
Speaker 2: and then they help assist that.
Speaker 3: But it's fun to watch. Last night.

Speaker 2: man who signed Michael Jordan at Nike, Sonny Vaccaro. He
Speaker 2: also signed Kobe at Adidas, nearly had Lebron at Adidas.
Speaker 2: He'll join us coming up, and this is one of
Speaker 2: those he wants to set the record straight because they're
Speaker 2: there was a moment not too long ago where Phil Knight,
Speaker 2: the CEO of Nike, Michael Jordan, and George Raveling, former
Speaker 2: college coach. They were saying that Sonny had nothing to
Speaker 2: do with Michael Jordan going to Nike, which is a
Speaker 2: lie because Sonny did. And they had the movie Air
Speaker 2: that talks about Sonny signing Michael Jordan. The fact that
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan sort of, I guess acknowledged this lie is surprising.
Speaker 2: But Sonny wrote a book and he'll join us coming
Speaker 2: up next hour. Woody Harrelson has a movie that comes
Speaker 2: out tonight today. It's called Last Breath. Got a chance
Speaker 2: to see it a few days ago, so what he
Speaker 2: will join us coming up a little bit later. On
Speaker 2: Cabs and the Celtics coming up tonight. Travis Kelcey is
Speaker 2: coming back for another season. What I find interesting is
Speaker 2: when a player says I can't.
Speaker 3: Go out this way.
Speaker 2: Well, you got to the super Bowl. Now granted you
Speaker 2: guys got blown. Now you didn't play, well, there's no
Speaker 2: guarantee you get to the super Bowl. I do believe
Speaker 2: if they had won the super Bowl, he would have retired.
Speaker 2: I do believe that. I thought he was going to retire.
Speaker 2: But you look at his numbers. I mean, the numbers
Speaker 2: can lie, but what did he have ninety catches last year?
Speaker 2: Ninety five catches? But in their offense now it's a
Speaker 2: ball control offense. Now you need him. I mean he's
Speaker 2: not beating you deep, it's you know, short yardage pass plays.
Speaker 2: But you know he's still I don't want to say dangerous,
Speaker 2: but he's somebody that you would want on the field.
Speaker 2: He makes you better. And I think him wanting to
Speaker 2: play one more season, hey, I'm all for that. I
Speaker 2: would never want somebody to say you should retire. You
Speaker 2: have to know when to retire. And if Travis Kelsey
Speaker 2: wants to run it back one more season, good for him.
Speaker 2: I think his brother Jason could have stayed one more
Speaker 2: year and won a super Bowl. But I also think
Speaker 2: he had so many media opportunities that it was right
Speaker 2: for him and he was banged up a little bit.
Speaker 2: Travis is going to have opportunities. Jason. This was a
Speaker 2: golden opportunity for him. He took advantage of it and
Speaker 2: he's done quite well. But Travis Kelce coming back for
Speaker 2: one more season eight seven to seven three DP Show
Speaker 2: email address dpat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle THEDP Show.
Speaker 2: Good morning, if you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner
Speaker 2: and our radio affiliates around the country. This just in
Speaker 2: from Diana Russini from the Athletic. The Rams are said
Speaker 2: to meet with Matthew Stafford at their facility in person
Speaker 2: later today regarding his future. I throughout two years one
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars make it guarantee whoever is going to sign,
Speaker 2: whether it's the Rams, the Raiders, the Giants, or another
Speaker 2: team throwing you the Steelers. Well, the Raiders and Giants
Speaker 2: had discussed a two year contract for Matthew Stafford that
Speaker 2: includes eight ninety to one hundred million guaranteed. A decision
Speaker 2: is expected soon. They did give him permission. He met
Speaker 2: with Tom Brady. If it was a planned meeting, it's
Speaker 2: still okay because you know, this wasn't anything that Brady
Speaker 2: was doing behind the scenes or you know, in a
Speaker 2: clandestine way he did. And you know he had approval
Speaker 2: from the Rams to go talk to whoever he wanted
Speaker 2: to or his representatives. He just happened to be, you know,
Speaker 2: on the ski slopes when Tom Brady was there at
Speaker 2: Montana and he's spoken to the New York Giants. I
Speaker 2: was wondering, though, Raiders or Giants. Now if I said Rams,
Speaker 2: I would say, go back to the Rams if they're
Speaker 2: going to give you this money, because I certainly like
Speaker 2: what the Rams are doing. The Raiders, they're not close.
Speaker 2: You do get brock Bauers, but it just seems a
Speaker 2: little spotty, little shaky there the Giants. You know, the
Speaker 2: Giants have a third pick in the draft. They got
Speaker 2: Melik Neighbors. I certainly like that. The question is, let's
Speaker 2: say they got Travis Hunter Melik Neighbors. Matthew Stafford, Now
Speaker 2: you got my attention. Now, granted, you're in the NFC,
Speaker 2: you're in with the Eagles and the Commanders in your
Speaker 2: own division.
Speaker 3: But look at the Raiders.
Speaker 2: You're in the AFC West where everybody made the playoffs.
Speaker 2: But you and I'm wondering if you're Matthew Stafford. I
Speaker 2: get to play indoors half my season with the Raiders.
Speaker 2: I like that Brady is part owner. I like the
Speaker 2: competitive part of that with Tom and Brock Bawers is
Speaker 2: a very very maybe you know, knocking on the door
Speaker 2: of the new best tight end in the NFL. So
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the pluses and minuses. If the money
Speaker 2: is the same, and I thought this is where we
Speaker 2: were going. Maybe it's completely guaranteed two years, one hundred
Speaker 2: million dollars. The Giants feel like they're a little more
Speaker 2: competitive here. The Raiders don't. But I do like the
Speaker 2: fact that his age playing indoors for half of the season,
Speaker 2: even though you're going to be in the AFC West.
Speaker 2: I think the Giants feel like they're going to be
Speaker 2: a playoff team this year, as strange as that may sound,
Speaker 2: because they didn't look particularly competitive last year. You let
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley go, Daniel Jones, you let him go, Matthew
Speaker 2: Stafford comes in, you do get respect, I think, I mean,
Speaker 2: you have to respect a team that has Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 2: I just I'm still the surprise element of this is
Speaker 2: the Rams are ready to win. Now, That's what I
Speaker 2: don't like, what are the Rams going to do if
Speaker 2: you said, I can have Sam Darnold for five years
Speaker 2: or Matthew Stafford for two or Jimmy Garoppolo or Matthew.
Speaker 3: Stafford, I gotta take. I gotta take Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: Albert Breer, the Monday Morning Quarterback, was with us yesterday
Speaker 2: and he talked about the time frame. You know, the
Speaker 2: RAMS time frame is different than Matthew Stafford's time frame.
Speaker 2: The Rams may say we have a five year window.
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford may only have a two year window. I
Speaker 2: you know, just ask the niners the windows close. Win
Speaker 2: win now, that's the most important thing. You got an
Speaker 2: opportunity win Now, Matthew Stafford helps you better than Sam
Speaker 2: Donald or Jimmy Garoppolo.
Speaker 4: Win.
Speaker 2: Now. I have complete trust in Sean McVay, But in
Speaker 2: this situation, I want Matthew Stafford back for two more years.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 2: He may want three, three years, he may want four.
Speaker 2: You just say we're giving you two. It's all guaranteed,
Speaker 2: come on back home. And if not, and it feels
Speaker 2: like something's gonna happen here by by the weekend, because
Speaker 2: I think it has to. You know, the RAMS have
Speaker 2: to prepare for the draft, like what are we doing now?
Speaker 2: What's our strategy? Or if you're the Raiders and you
Speaker 2: don't get him, if you're the Giants at three, are
Speaker 2: you more likely to take a quarterback? Probably so, or
Speaker 2: at least you're gonna have you're gonna have one quarterback
Speaker 2: to pick from. More than likely cam Ward will go
Speaker 2: first and then Shadoor Sanders after that. Or the Raiders
Speaker 2: may say, hey, you know what, we'd rather have Shodoor Sanders.
Speaker 2: We're not ready to win now. But they just offered
Speaker 2: him reportedly two years, one hundred million dollars guaranteed, so
Speaker 2: they are in the same you know, Matthew Stafford business
Speaker 2: here all right, see let's poll question today.
Speaker 3: We got one here from Paulie. That's fun.
Speaker 6: Whose career would you want? Classic Steph Curry, Patrick Mahomes show,
Speaker 6: HEO Tani? This includes past, present, current. Okay, I don't
Speaker 6: know if you can put Otani in there, h worldwide? No,
Speaker 6: I would be Otani. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
Speaker 6: I thought.
Speaker 3: You No, no, no, well, I mean they're paying him
Speaker 3: seven hundred million dollars.
Speaker 6: More than Patrick Mahomes, more than Steph Curry.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, yeah, I mean Otani is unique. Steph is
Speaker 2: Steph is one of the great players of all time,
Speaker 2: absolutely great a shooter, great Mahomes, obviously legacy there. Otani's different,
Speaker 2: like there's nothing, There's nobody like show Hayotanic.
Speaker 6: Steph is one of the two players you could point
Speaker 6: to that changed the game in recent memory, like in
Speaker 6: a generation of people.
Speaker 3: And Otani has changed the game. I don't know if
Speaker 3: he has.
Speaker 2: I think that the number of players who might try
Speaker 2: to do both, it was unheard of. They wouldn't. They
Speaker 2: would say, no, you got to pick you're either a
Speaker 2: shortstop or a pitcher. It feels like there's going to
Speaker 2: be maybe, hey, let's see what we have because most
Speaker 2: of your baseball players play another position. If they're a
Speaker 2: pitcher and they're probably the best player on the team
Speaker 2: and they're the shortstop and they bat third, I think
Speaker 2: you're going to see players who are at least going
Speaker 2: to try it. Steph Curry did change the game with
Speaker 2: all these threes, but I would be sho heyo tanu, yes, Martin.
Speaker 7: But Steph Curry the NBA. Remember it's worldwide, So Steph
Speaker 7: Curry may be as famous, if not more famous than
Speaker 7: show Heo Tani.
Speaker 2: Okay, but okay, what are we basing this on? You
Speaker 2: want to be in because of fame?
Speaker 7: Well, his influence and what he's already done.
Speaker 6: Okay, Yes, Steph Curry's influence is so important and widespread
Speaker 6: that he changed the men's game and the women's game.
Speaker 3: Okay, So is this fame, Like, what are we basing
Speaker 3: this off of.
Speaker 7: I'm going off of influence Because Sho Hao Tani might
Speaker 7: change the game, Steph Curry's already done it.
Speaker 2: Okay, So that's enough that you've changed the game. Not success, money,
Speaker 2: He's got all that too. No, But I'm saying you're
Speaker 2: just talking about he changed the game.
Speaker 6: If we were doing success, I would say Steph Curry
Speaker 6: and Patrick Mahomes are more successful than Shoe Hao Toani too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would take show Heo Tani because the only
Speaker 3: comp he has is Babe Ruth. That's it. Nobody else.
Speaker 3: Steph Curry greatest shooter of all time?
Speaker 2: Absolutely, he's not, you know it might not be one
Speaker 2: of the top ten players of all time when it's
Speaker 2: all said and done. Patrick mahomes numbers are dropping even
Speaker 2: though they still have teams success. Is he going to
Speaker 2: catch Tom Brady. His comp is Joe Montana right now.
Speaker 2: Show Hey, Otani's got to win a few more championships,
Speaker 2: but the Dodgers are spending more than anybody. There's not
Speaker 2: a wrong answer here, Yes, Tom, But yeah, don't.
Speaker 8: You need to see more with O'tani before you would
Speaker 8: put O'tani ahead of Curry If you had to decide
Speaker 8: right now, I think you kind of just said it.
Speaker 8: You need to see Kenny put up big numbers offensively
Speaker 8: and as a pitcher to put him really overstep right now.
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you, if you look at the only
Speaker 3: comp for him is Babe Ruth, that's it.
Speaker 2: I'd be like if you're NBA player and your comp
Speaker 2: is you know, Wilt Chamberlain with everything like Joker Joker,
Speaker 2: when they bring up his numbers, they're like, uh, you know,
Speaker 2: the last guy who did this was Wilt. So I'm
Speaker 2: looking at historically the three point line. You know a
Speaker 2: lot of players didn't get the opportunity to use the
Speaker 2: three point line the way Steph does. Doesn't mean they'd
Speaker 2: be as good, but you have a lot of players
Speaker 2: who would have a lot different numbers if they were
Speaker 2: able to. I mean, how many three pointers did Steph
Speaker 2: shoot last night? I think he had nineteen three point
Speaker 2: attempts last night out of twenty five shots. So once again,
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a wrong answer, but I would
Speaker 2: I would take O'tani just because of the unique nature
Speaker 2: of what he's done.
Speaker 3: And look at it. Look at the year he had
Speaker 3: last year. That's unheard of.
Speaker 2: Steph hasn't had a year where you go, that's unheard of.
Speaker 2: Even when they won seventy three games, what happened? They
Speaker 2: didn't win the title. Choe Hey Otani put up a
Speaker 2: season that's never been seen before. He didn't even pitch
Speaker 2: last year. That's just hitting.
Speaker 3: Let's take a break. I like this.
Speaker 2: We're getting spicy, saucy, good sports radio conversation. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: all right, we'll take a break. Phone calls eight seven

Speaker 2: list later on today, NFL Combine still going on, going
Speaker 2: to start to get a little bit more exciting. I think,
Speaker 2: you know, it's weird when you're watching and my wife
Speaker 2: walked by and she goes, what is that. I said, well,
Speaker 2: it's the combine. She goes, well, they don't have pads on.
Speaker 2: I said, thanks, son, And she said, well, what's it for?
Speaker 2: I said, these are college players and they get to
Speaker 2: run drills in front of the NFL scouts and then
Speaker 2: it can help their draft status.
Speaker 3: And then she's like, well, who wins?
Speaker 2: Like I said, well, the individual player can win if
Speaker 2: he runs like a fast forty yard dash and or
Speaker 2: he lifts weights and they have different So I'm explaining
Speaker 2: and then I'm going I could just see the blank
Speaker 2: look on her face, like, what's like a three cone drill?
Speaker 2: And I said, yeah, it's just to see your agility,
Speaker 2: See how quick you are, see how fast you are,
Speaker 2: how strong you are, Yes, Polly.
Speaker 10: Which is more weird non sports people looking at what
Speaker 10: we do and what we think is important, or us
Speaker 10: thinking about people who don't care about sports at all
Speaker 10: and what they do with their day.
Speaker 2: I'm sure it's fast fascinating to the non sports fan
Speaker 2: who is curious why we think this is really a
Speaker 2: big deal and it's important. And I was trying to
Speaker 2: explain that to my wife last night or yesterday, and
Speaker 2: I realized that she wasn't going to grasp it, and
Speaker 2: I just said, it's a chance for these college football
Speaker 2: players who you may not know. There are some notable
Speaker 2: names here, but they are able to meet with teams.
Speaker 2: The teams can then decide if maybe they want to,
Speaker 2: you know, draft somebody. So it's it's just a chance
Speaker 2: that everybody meets in one place in Indianapolis and then
Speaker 2: they show and I could I kept speaking and then
Speaker 2: I'm realizing this really sounds boring what I'm saying. I
Speaker 2: can just you know, the more you talk like, the
Speaker 2: less impactful you are.
Speaker 3: Todd right, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, that's a yes, Marvin.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I was watching a little bit of the combine last
Speaker 7: night and my wife goes, all right, so, like, what's
Speaker 7: happening here? And I was like, well, they're trying to
Speaker 7: see if they can get drafted or not. She was like,
Speaker 7: what don't they have like taped and didn't see these
Speaker 7: guys during the year. They probably did, but I said,
Speaker 7: a lot of times it's for like small town guys,
Speaker 7: small school guys. So and the NFL draft she is
Speaker 7: fascinated by. She goes, but nobody's playing. Why are there
Speaker 7: a million people there? She goes, Mark, they're just calling names.
Speaker 7: I said, I know the NFL's got a choke hold
Speaker 7: on this place called America.
Speaker 2: It's like, you know what your team's schedule is coming up,
Speaker 2: you know who you're gonna play. You don't know exactly
Speaker 2: how to plan your fall if you want to go
Speaker 2: see your team play. But the schedule release, I mean,
Speaker 2: it's it's incredible. Oh yes, it's this big reveal and
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, and then we're gonna bring in the
Speaker 2: experts to analyt. Like, there's so many things that we
Speaker 2: get excited about. Now somebody on the outside looking and
Speaker 2: trying to understan and yes, Todd, because you immediately.
Speaker 8: Go into a prediction mode with your team. That's a win,
Speaker 8: that's a loss, that's a loss. We could be five
Speaker 8: and two based on that schedule. We could be five
Speaker 8: and two at that point.
Speaker 10: Yeah, Bolly, But I think the opposite is more fascinating.
Speaker 10: I have a few friends who know nothing and care
Speaker 10: zero about sports. I wonder what they do with their weekends.
Speaker 10: I can't imagine what they do on the weekend. I
Speaker 10: hang out their family and be productive.
Speaker 3: Yeah, see it's awful. Yes, in the fall, what do
Speaker 3: you do all day? Like responsible citizens, husbands, fathers.
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: And I said to my wife, I said, the combine
Speaker 2: is on throughout the weekend. And then and I said,
Speaker 2: and then I at the very end, I go and
Speaker 2: rich Eisend's there, And she goes, why is he there?
Speaker 3: I said, at least broadcasting? What do you broadcast?
Speaker 2: And then I was like, never mind, hunt, but I
Speaker 2: thought that that hey, rich Eisen's there, because she knows
Speaker 2: rich it's important Yeah, somehow that validated that.
Speaker 3: Well, Rich's there.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, now I understand why you're watching this by
Speaker 2: yourself in a dark room smoking a cigar.
Speaker 3: Okay, a couple of phone calls in.
Speaker 7: Here, BOHNI you to see his bench press?
Speaker 3: Yeah to twenty five? Huh.
Speaker 2: After watching Steph Curry last night, PAULI thought, here's a
Speaker 2: pull question. Would you rather be Steph Curry, Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 2: or Shoeo Tani? Now you get them now, you got
Speaker 2: them before, and then you get them in the future. Okay,
Speaker 2: I said, I would take show heyo Tani. The hardest
Speaker 2: thing in sports is to hit a baseball, and he
Speaker 2: has three MVPs and had a season that nobody has
Speaker 2: ever had before last year and he didn't even pitch
Speaker 2: last year. I would say, show heyo Tony. Now you
Speaker 2: would think me loving to shoot three pointers? That I
Speaker 2: would take Steph Curry, which I am envious of that
Speaker 2: ability to shoot that many threes and to shoot it
Speaker 2: better than anybody who's ever played the game. And he
Speaker 2: doesn't have a comp When you go who's the greatest
Speaker 2: shooter of all time? Who else is in that conversation?
Speaker 2: I mean, Ray Allen is great, Larry Bird was great,
Speaker 2: Clay was great, Reggie was great, Dame is great.
Speaker 3: Steph is different than all of them.
Speaker 2: Now, if you said to Reggie he got to have
Speaker 2: fifteen threes, twelve threes again, Larry Bird shooting, you know,
Speaker 2: you would have seen different numbers from them. And it's
Speaker 2: not that Steph is one dimensional just a great shooter.
Speaker 2: I mean he's not a high assist guy, not a
Speaker 2: defensive guy, you know, but he is different than anybody
Speaker 2: else who plays the game. So I have to factor
Speaker 2: that in how great he is. I mean, Durant I
Speaker 2: said this before, Durant's a better basketball player than Steph.
Speaker 2: What Steph does is singularly better than anybody else. And
Speaker 2: then you throw in Mahomes. I think had he won
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, then maybe this is a little bit
Speaker 2: more of a fairer fight there. But you're looking at
Speaker 2: Mahomes and you're saying, he's what twenty eight, He's got
Speaker 2: maybe ten more years. He's already a top five quarterback
Speaker 2: of all time. I would think everybody would agree with that,
Speaker 2: maybe top three yes time.
Speaker 8: But Marvin's argument changing the way the game is played
Speaker 8: on the men and women's side, that to me holds
Speaker 8: a lot, you know, when you're comparing the two, I
Speaker 8: know only Babe Ruth and there's a select few people
Speaker 8: in the history of baseball that have done both. But
Speaker 8: he wasn't the pioneer of that, and they could potentially
Speaker 8: be others to do that. It's very hard to believe
Speaker 8: someone's ever going to shoot like that in the future
Speaker 8: of the NBA and to have the game change so
Speaker 8: dramatically the way it's play.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree, But Paulie asked me the question.
Speaker 2: I said, show Heyutani, he had a baseball season that
Speaker 2: we've never seen before.
Speaker 3: He's got three MVPs.
Speaker 2: If he wins a couple of more World Series titles,
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden you kind of put him
Speaker 2: into a different category as one of the greats of
Speaker 2: all time. And STEP's there, Mahomes is there. But Otani,
Speaker 2: with what he does is just unique. I still go
Speaker 2: back to nobody would be compared with Babe Ruth. No
Speaker 2: one until now, that's one hundred years, nobody's ever been compared.
Speaker 7: Yes, Mark, But will show Hey be considered the greatest
Speaker 7: at something in the game of basement now?
Speaker 3: No, he will not.
Speaker 7: Steph is already undoubtedly the greatest shooter ever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 7: So you'd rather be just one of the greatest and
Speaker 7: then instead of being the greatest at something.
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you that I'm looking at what o'tani
Speaker 2: has done and his only compass, Babe Ruth. Now everybody
Speaker 2: else is going to be compared to Steph Curry as
Speaker 2: we move forward. But once again, the proliferation of three
Speaker 2: point attempts has changed dramatically, Ray Allen, if you give
Speaker 2: him fifteen to threes a game, is Ray putting up
Speaker 2: similar numbers? Reggie Miller, Reggie, would you know what? Take
Speaker 2: five three pointers? Larry would take three or four? You know,
Speaker 2: the game has changed, and and Steph is the big
Speaker 2: reason for that. He's able to get a green light,
Speaker 2: and rightfully, so the problem is all the other people
Speaker 2: who have a green light and it should be yellow
Speaker 2: or red.
Speaker 3: Yes, boy, well, so I agree.
Speaker 10: I'm going with Steph Curry for all the reasons everyone said,
Speaker 10: because it's already in the tank. However, your points on
Speaker 10: o'tani are pending. He's going to have to be injured
Speaker 10: to not win the MVP the next three or four
Speaker 10: years because he's going to pitch and hit with the Dodgers,
Speaker 10: who are going to have the most wins in baseball likely,
Speaker 10: so it's going to be an anomaly if he does
Speaker 10: not win the MVP. He could have six MVPs before
Speaker 10: the age of thirty five easily without injury. And if
Speaker 10: you look at the best two way player in the
Speaker 10: history of the sport, it's going to be him.
Speaker 3: Babe.
Speaker 10: Ruth didn't cross over that much. He really didn't. He
Speaker 10: didn't do both at a high end simultaneously. And then,
Speaker 10: like you said, the Otani effect could be a decade
Speaker 10: from now when there's a bunch of guys doing it.
Speaker 2: Steph's not going to win another MVP. Mahomes probably won't
Speaker 2: win another MVP. Now that doesn't mean he won't win
Speaker 2: Super Bowl MVP, but Steph winning another NBA championship, the
Speaker 2: odds are long. Otani is playing with the best team
Speaker 2: in baseball, spends more money than anybody else, and by
Speaker 2: proxy is going to benefit b in the playoffs every year,
Speaker 2: maybe win a couple more World Series titles, maybe a
Speaker 2: couple of MVPs because of the uniqueness of who he is.
Speaker 7: Yes, I'm also going to go with Steph Curry because
Speaker 7: he turned the Golden State Warriors into a national team.
Speaker 7: Like so in about ten years, Mahomes did the same thing.
Speaker 7: I think in ten years you're going to see a
Speaker 7: bunch of kids that turn into adults. Hey I'm a
Speaker 7: cheese fan. Well, you live in Arizona. Why are you
Speaker 7: the chief? Well, Patrick whils is my favorite player. Same
Speaker 7: thing went to a nets game Warriors man. Just tons
Speaker 7: of ten and eleven year olds with Stephen Curry jerseys,
Speaker 7: and they're gonna be adults. They're going to be I.
Speaker 3: Agree, I agree wholeheartedly. There's no wrong answer here.
Speaker 2: How about we do this in five years where I
Speaker 2: asked the question, So we just got to call each other.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we'll do a quick show. Yeah, yes, ton.
Speaker 8: This may be unfair, but to that point, Otani wasn't
Speaker 8: able to make the Angels a national team. They got
Speaker 8: some more exposure and attention, but Trout couldn't do it.
Speaker 8: O Toanni couldn't do it. He had to go to
Speaker 8: a team that already has a whole history. So there's
Speaker 8: nothing much you can do.
Speaker 2: But Dodgers Lawrence oh Tani overshadowed the player that most
Speaker 2: people think was the best player in the game in
Speaker 2: Mike Trout and Mike Trout is a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 2: But people were curious about Otani. They weren't curious about
Speaker 2: Mike Trout. It was like, God, that guy is great
Speaker 2: every year. There was no curiosity factor. Mahomes, there's a
Speaker 2: curiosity factor the way he plays a fascinating steph obviously
Speaker 2: and Otani, Yes he.
Speaker 6: Did sho Hey Otani overshadow Mike Trout or did Mike
Speaker 6: Trout just find a shadow to hide under because he
Speaker 6: is the most invisible, greatest player of the generation in
Speaker 6: any sport ever, of all time.
Speaker 2: Well, he may not be a self doesn't even exist,
Speaker 2: he's not a self promoter, but he still was considered
Speaker 2: the best player in the game, whether he was doing
Speaker 2: interviews or not. Otani, there was a curiosity with him.
Speaker 10: Yes, Trout's first ten years they never were in the playoffs.
Speaker 10: One playoff series. If you want to compare him to
Speaker 10: Albert Poolhols's first ten years, they're very close, but the
Speaker 10: Saintless Cardinals were all He's.
Speaker 3: In the playoffs.
Speaker 2: I don't know what we you know settled here radio
Speaker 2: it is tell what it is, Come on, come verse challenge.
Speaker 3: That sounds mentally.
Speaker 2: Kenny in la Hey, Kenny, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 5: You guys? First of all, I got us SAT of
Speaker 5: the Day, But preliminarily I would say that Pandora's version
Speaker 5: of SAT of the Day is a poor man's Steamy
Speaker 5: Nicks many of that. Steph Curry twenty six games of
Speaker 5: three points, twenty six games where.
Speaker 2: Let me help you here, he has twenty six career
Speaker 2: games with ten or more three pointers. That's more than
Speaker 2: the next five players combined. Klay Thompson, Dame Lillard, James Harden,
Speaker 2: Zach Levine and j R. Smith, Jay the Jay.
Speaker 3: We love you, Stadin poor Man, Stevie Nicks.
Speaker 2: I'd like to apologize to Stevie Nicks if.
Speaker 3: She's listening, and she probably is.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Seaton, I just want to go on record that
Speaker 6: I do not support this latest movement of stat of
Speaker 6: the Day songs. We have a great time on her tradition,
Speaker 6: no seat of great artists contributing stat of the Day
Speaker 6: songs that we are drastically drastically watering down no offense, seating,
Speaker 6: free your mind, the rest will no offense. Two we
Speaker 6: played yesterday were horrible.
Speaker 3: They were bad.
Speaker 9: That one.
Speaker 6: I get what we're doing with it. I don't know
Speaker 6: that this is what we want to do. Sometimes it's
Speaker 6: so bad it's good. Yeah, Sometimes it's so bad it's
Speaker 6: it's terrible.
Speaker 3: I do like that.
Speaker 8: I'd like that naughty burlesque quality of something there.
Speaker 2: Once again, you're the guy who saw a license plate
Speaker 2: on the highway in Los Angeles and then you followed
Speaker 2: the car because I.
Speaker 8: Said, like hot, mom or something, got to see who
Speaker 8: this woman is, and I just couldn't weave in and
Speaker 8: out try to get next to see who this person is.
Speaker 8: Ended up being like some eighty year old woman sitting
Speaker 8: on a phone book so you could see through the
Speaker 8: over the hearing.
Speaker 2: Whel alrighty, we're just getting started on this program, and.
Speaker 3: We'll come back. We got our play of the day
Speaker 3: right after this.
Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan

Speaker 7: Check this out.
Speaker 2: Curry, guarded by Carter Junior, gets another screen bounce past

Speaker 11: Ball, got it with the butzer sounding.
Speaker 3: The shot clock was winding down. This twelve three of
Speaker 3: the night. He's got a fifty two point game.
Speaker 2: That's courtesy of ninety five point seven the game Steph
Speaker 2: Curry twelve three pointers. That was his twelfth that finished
Speaker 2: with fifty six points and a fourteenth career game of
Speaker 2: fifty or more points that ties in with Rick Berry
Speaker 2: and Lebron James for seven all time. That's your play
Speaker 2: of the day, brought to you by tire rack dot com,

Speaker 2: Tire iraq dot com The way tire buying should be.
Speaker 2: All right, let's bet on the results of the poll question.
Speaker 2: So far, you can have Shohey Otani's career, Patrick Mahomes'
Speaker 2: career or Steph Curry's career, past and future. I'm going
Speaker 2: to say people sided with Steph Curry. It's Steph Mahomes Otani.
Speaker 2: Anybody think differently on the poll question?
Speaker 8: Yes, Tom, Steph Otani, Mahomes.
Speaker 7: Okay, Marv Mahomes, Steph Otani.
Speaker 6: Okay, Seaton the results right now, Dan on Danpatrick dot
Speaker 6: com the website. You have the order, Dan Patrick, exactly right.
Speaker 3: Just reversed.
Speaker 6: So I didn't have it exactly right. You had it
Speaker 6: exactly right, just reversed. You had Steph Mahomes Otani. Otani
Speaker 6: has fifty five percent of the vote, followed by Mahomes
Speaker 6: and then Steph with twenty percent.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, all right, I knew this audience was really smart.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Paul.
Speaker 10: I was thinking about Otani going forward. Let's say he
Speaker 10: pitches and hits next year, he hits forty five homers,
Speaker 10: hits three hundred, and is like twelve and six as
Speaker 10: a pitcher. You got to find a reason to not
Speaker 10: give him the MVP every year. Yeah, it's gonna be
Speaker 10: six years from now he could have easily six MVPs.
Speaker 10: Is Barry Bonds the best of all time with five? Yeah,
Speaker 10: I mean he should fly by this. That number.
Speaker 12: Well, there's a lot of work to do. Yeah, and health,
Speaker 12: but yeah, my lord, he's gonna and I don't you know.
Speaker 12: The pitching part of this is the tricky part of this.
Speaker 12: Because you know, coming off surgery.
Speaker 2: But the fact that what he did hitting wise and
Speaker 2: stealing bases, combining those numbers, that's what's amazing. I mean, hey,
Speaker 2: you can't pitch. We didn't even know how healthy he
Speaker 2: would be. Hitting wise, Yeah, he stole fifty nine bases.
Speaker 2: He's one of the biggest guys in the game. So
Speaker 2: he went from twenty six to fifty nine stolen bases.
Speaker 3: Red in Georgia, high Red. What's on your mind today?
Speaker 11: Hey, thanks for taking the call.
Speaker 13: Hey Dan, you crushed with his old ton of thay.
Speaker 13: But man, one thing I would like to add by
Speaker 13: th time, that was the year old Tony could have
Speaker 13: wanted the shy young in the MVP. He actually brought
Speaker 13: me back to watching baseball every day.
Speaker 11: Danny and the Steph Curry thing. Let's submit to this, Danny.
Speaker 13: The way they called the game and the way the
Speaker 13: game is played now allowed step to be greater the
Speaker 13: impossible that he would have been. The way they called
Speaker 13: the game and the way the game played, you take
Speaker 13: the physicality out. I come just to love the majency
Speaker 13: Bird playing an era where.
Speaker 11: He don't have to be handchecked. Come on, Danny, And
Speaker 11: then this is the Damn Patrick Show and the Dennys,
Speaker 11: not the Denny and Dan Patrick and PAULI. I'm surprised
Speaker 11: that you at the end. I would have thought you
Speaker 11: would have came on Dan's side, the naked you know,
Speaker 11: like y'all was going against Danny. We can't have that.
Speaker 13: And on the Damn Patrick Show.
Speaker 11: Thanks what that?
Speaker 3: Thank you read?
Speaker 2: This is a democracy here and sometimes it becomes a dictatorship.
Speaker 3: Yees see?
Speaker 6: Who did you pick in the pole question?
Speaker 4: Again?
Speaker 3: I picked to Tom.
Speaker 6: Oh me too, agree, Yes, yes, gosh, you're so right,
Speaker 6: You're always so right.
Speaker 3: Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 6: We put you on Mount Rushmore right now, I mean no,
Speaker 6: not yet, maybe in three years.
Speaker 3: Maybe in three years, okay, all right, just right on
Speaker 3: the Mount Rushmore broadcasters. You're there? Yeah, yes, yes, is
Speaker 3: there really a close second?
Speaker 8: Just might be four pictures of you I don't even
Speaker 8: know who?
Speaker 3: Thank you, ton Wlade. Are you being serious?
Speaker 8: I'm being facetious.
Speaker 3: That's not how we do that? Why do you do that?
Speaker 8: The pictures of Dan Patrick?
Speaker 4: And then I'm just.
Speaker 3: Believing you and I thought that you truly felt that.
Speaker 8: Little tongue in cheek, not a lot slight tongue.
Speaker 6: We can get Ohio, Dan Patrick. We have Atlanta CNN,
Speaker 6: Dan Patrick, then we go ESPN, then we go this era.
Speaker 3: There you go, that's four right there, Yes, Paul. I
Speaker 3: wonder if the.
Speaker 10: Guy who was like oversaw the construction of Mount Rushmore
Speaker 10: New eighty years later, he'd be a sports radio fixture, like,
Speaker 10: what a weird dynamic?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Who's your Mount Rushmore? Yeah? Colin in California, High Colin,
Speaker 2: Good morning.
Speaker 4: Dan, Part time uber driver, full time listener. I have
Speaker 4: a proposal for a future or a folk question today.
Speaker 4: As you probably know, there's an election going on in
Speaker 4: the state of Utah to name the NHL franchise the
Speaker 4: front running candidate Utah. YETI was denied a trademark and
Speaker 4: the votes are being tallied for three final candidates of
Speaker 4: the Utah Outlaws, the Utah Mammoth, and the Utah Hockey Club.
Speaker 4: All three lack originality, which is unfortunate in a league
Speaker 4: founded on an oridgid on an original six. Dan, I
Speaker 4: actually own a trademark that I filed for last May that,
Speaker 4: with your endorsement, could be telling the name of the
Speaker 4: next NHL franchise in Utah.
Speaker 3: Okay, Hey, here is Colin in California with the big reveal.
Speaker 4: The Utah Augurs. That's not that's not it. That's not it,
Speaker 4: but it may as well be. The Augurs. It kind
Speaker 4: of sound like it. The Utah Anglers, the Utah Anglers.
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 2: I think you're fishing for compliments there on your thank
Speaker 2: you con. I like the Augurs. Now that I have
Speaker 2: an augur.
Speaker 10: Oh you bought your releasing.
Speaker 2: Now I bought. I bought an augur. Yes, yes, yes,

Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Whenever I'm in Maine and somebody needs, you know, wants
Speaker 2: to go ice fishing.
Speaker 10: You could big shot people though, when they're trying to
Speaker 10: drill with the old style. You walk up with your
Speaker 10: power auger and just let it up.
Speaker 3: Hey, Tommy, uh, step aside.
Speaker 2: Let me let me let me cut open a hole
Speaker 2: here in the with my auger. I need to have
Speaker 2: a carrying case for it. You know where it's you know,
Speaker 2: carrying over my shoulder, yes, ton Oh, like.
Speaker 8: When someone's carrying their bowling ball, their pool stick, like
Speaker 8: I mean business, I got my own whole package.
Speaker 3: Oh here comes I go to the bar. And I
Speaker 3: bring my auger with me. Makes sense?
Speaker 2: So boys, uh, hey, could you uh could you get up?
Speaker 2: I'd like to have a seat for my augur.
Speaker 6: Those like golf clubs, like you can't bring them in,
Speaker 6: but you leave the auger outside at the door. They
Speaker 6: have like a rack that everyone puts the in. Yes,
Speaker 6: like a bag rack. You have an augur rack there
Speaker 6: right exactly. Hey, hey, babe, you want to come out
