Speaker 2: over four hundred cities carrying this award nominated program eight
Speaker 2: seven to seven three DP. Show operator Tyler sitting by.
Speaker 2: He'll take your calls and Seaton. The final poll question
Speaker 2: for this week is what well this is on the
Speaker 2: I just got this. This isn't a pole question actually,
Speaker 2: but it's great about the name thing that we've been
Speaker 2: talking about.
Speaker 5: Yeah, this person just wrote and it's not sports related,
Speaker 5: but I have two sons here. My wife had no idea,
Speaker 5: but their names are Johnny and Body.
Speaker 3: From point Break. Wow.
Speaker 2: Once again, if when your wife delivers and she's probably
Speaker 2: had an epidural and you know, drugged up, and you're
Speaker 2: trying to come up with names. Just the fact that
Speaker 2: Brad Johnson said to his wife, I got a name
Speaker 2: Maximus Johnson, and somehow they signed off on that. And
Speaker 2: he's a quarterback at North Carolina right now, all right,
Speaker 2: so we'll get phone calls coming up. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: know how we stumbled on sports names. I don't remember
Speaker 2: any of my friends being named after athletes, but Kobe
Speaker 2: was a big name.
Speaker 3: Certainly after he died.
Speaker 2: Those twelve months after, I think the number of parents
Speaker 2: who named their children Kobe went up like two hundred percent.
Speaker 2: Floyd Mayweather was a name that was on there. I'm like,
Speaker 2: who's name in their kid Floyd or Mayweather? Any other
Speaker 2: names on there? Shack I understand that there was a
Speaker 2: wave there where Shack or some version of Shaquille was
Speaker 2: was pretty big.
Speaker 3: All right. So the pole question for the final hour
Speaker 3: of the program.
Speaker 5: Let me also update you real quick. We had from
Speaker 5: the twenty twenty draft other van Jalen Hurts, who will
Speaker 5: end up having the best career. It's justin Herbert is
Speaker 5: just barely edging out Joe Burrow and Jordan Love. But
Speaker 5: Joe Burrow and Jordan Love are very very close. They're
Speaker 5: at about splitting about thirty percent.
Speaker 2: If Joe Burrow wasn't hurt right now, he might be
Speaker 2: leading this pole question.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right.
Speaker 2: The Dolphins put up a good fight last night. They
Speaker 2: were twelve and a half point underdogs, but Buffalo Bills
Speaker 2: didn't commit a turnover and they improved to three and oho.
Speaker 2: The Dolphins one turnover and it wasn't like TWOA got sacked,
Speaker 2: he got hit once. But they fall to zero and three.
Speaker 2: Now they get around ten nine, ten days, and then
Speaker 2: they're going to be playing the Jets in a State
Speaker 2: Loane game on Monday night. The voice of Miami, Dan Lebotard,
Speaker 2: host of Metal Arc Media's The Dan Levittard Show, which
Speaker 2: you can find on this channel. Peacock, Is that right, Dan?
Speaker 2: Right after us?
Speaker 6: You do?
Speaker 3: Okay? I just want to make sure that.
Speaker 4: Yes, thank you, Yes, okay. I want to get in
Speaker 4: on your name's game here though. Can I want to
Speaker 4: which is the more interesting name fact here in this
Speaker 4: in this equation I'm giving you that all of George
Speaker 4: Foreman's kids were named George, including his daughter who was
Speaker 4: named Georgette, or that Dennis Rodman, one of nineteen children
Speaker 4: his father, was actually named Philander.
Speaker 2: Would you ever name your child after an athlete? And
Speaker 2: if so, which athlete?
Speaker 7: Well?
Speaker 4: I am childless and I have not given this question
Speaker 4: any thought. This is why you're the great one that
Speaker 4: you are in terms of interviewing. Would I name my
Speaker 4: child after an athlete? No, I don't think I would
Speaker 4: do that. I would have to do that. I think
Speaker 4: I would take if I was going to name them
Speaker 4: after a family member and not just a name the
Speaker 4: name I liked, I would name it after a family member,
Speaker 4: I should say, not not an athlete. I would not
Speaker 4: do that.
Speaker 2: So like Marino Lebtard, Lebron Lebutard, Oh are you still
Speaker 2: bitter over lebron leaving Miami?
Speaker 3: Clearly?
Speaker 6: Not?
Speaker 8: If I was just.
Speaker 4: Clearly, I'm hugely grateful. If if what I just did
Speaker 4: there is name a time, How ridiculous would that mean?
Speaker 4: Poor and poor little Lebron Lebtard?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 2: How about Riley Riley LeBatard after pat Riley? Your good
Speaker 2: buddy could.
Speaker 4: Be a boy or a girl.
Speaker 3: I could go Pat.
Speaker 4: I could go Pat and it could be a boy
Speaker 4: or a girl. I could go Riley and it could
Speaker 4: be a boy or a girl.
Speaker 2: Probably not Tua. But let's let's let's dissect here what
Speaker 2: we've seen. It is the weather or the temperature underneath.
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel Warmer today.
Speaker 4: Well, that game, they were well coached last night. That's
Speaker 4: an out man team with I think a historically bad defense.
Speaker 4: And I don't believe that coaching is the reason that
Speaker 4: they lost that game. They've got a fundamental architectural problem here, Dan,
Speaker 4: in that I believe that's the best game the Dolphins
Speaker 4: can play, and they're doing it by throwing the ball
Speaker 4: as many times behind the line of scrimmage as they
Speaker 4: are past the line of scrimmage. Now, that whole game
Speaker 4: last night, the average air yards in that game for
Speaker 4: Josh Allen and Tua one point four yards one point
Speaker 4: four yards on completion. So a lot of the league
Speaker 4: is doing that. But when I say they have a
Speaker 4: structural problem, Dan, here's the structural problem. Because they're no
Speaker 4: longer what they were, which was the best offense in
Speaker 4: the league. They're constipated on offense and Jalen Waddle and
Speaker 4: Tyreek Hill don't look like they can give you much.
Speaker 4: But Josh Allen against the Dolphins is in the regular
Speaker 4: season thirteen and two, eight and zero at home. He's
Speaker 4: got forty five total touchdowns and eight interceptions against the Dolphins.
Speaker 4: On the other side, the Dolphins have now lost four
Speaker 4: of their last seventeen and eight in a row against
Speaker 4: winning teams. And here's the structural flaw. And Tua's cap
Speaker 4: hit the next four years is more than Josh Allen's
Speaker 4: cap hit in Buffalo, and that's obviously an issue that's
Speaker 4: not going to go away for a while.
Speaker 2: I just don't understand why they jumped the gun on
Speaker 2: Tua with his performance, his injury history, and they could
Speaker 2: have kept him another year, they could have franchised him.
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to understand from the front office, from ownership,
Speaker 2: where they go, Nope, we got to sign this guy up.
Speaker 4: Now, why they're wildly mismanaged. They've got a GM who's
Speaker 4: got the longest tenure in the league without winning a
Speaker 4: playoff game. They have not enough good players, and they
Speaker 4: got fooled by scoring seventy points against the Broncos and
Speaker 4: having a comeback against the Ravens, which a lot of
Speaker 4: people do late in games. The Ravens have blown seventeen
Speaker 4: seven and half leads, and they got enamored with they
Speaker 4: had the best offense in the league. And more than that,
Speaker 4: Dan and this part matters. They had exciting offense. They
Speaker 4: were the fastest team in the league. But now you
Speaker 4: look up and they're accused of being soft and not
Speaker 4: physical enough. And the three guys that they have on
Speaker 4: offense that you need things from Wattle Hill and to
Speaker 4: all physically undersized. Like, yeah, they were fast and speed burns,
Speaker 4: but speed also ages. And their offense is you know,
Speaker 4: it's a bit like a Ferrari in that if a
Speaker 4: spark plug is off, it doesn't run right. There's not
Speaker 4: a lot of margin freer. I think one of the
Speaker 4: stats last night they had two they had a drive
Speaker 4: that had multiple successful attempts on third and ten, and
Speaker 4: it's the first time they've had that since twenty twenty two.
Speaker 4: Like they used to be a big play offense. But
Speaker 4: now what they had to do in that game last night,
Speaker 4: is you a perfect sixteen play drive that converts a
Speaker 4: bunch of third downs and just keep Josh Allen off
Speaker 4: the field for a while because we can't do this
Speaker 4: anymore where what we used to do is we'll have
Speaker 4: a scoring drive that goes one, two or three plays,
Speaker 4: not sixteen.
Speaker 3: How safe is Mike McDaniel.
Speaker 4: Safer today than he was before the game? Right? Because
Speaker 4: I really thought that whole game Dan was gonna go
Speaker 4: the way the first half did, which is just keep
Speaker 4: handing the ball to James Cook and he's gonna get
Speaker 4: nine yards every time. And that you know, they didn't
Speaker 4: stop him in the first half. And the most stunning
Speaker 4: thing for me to happen to this season for the
Speaker 4: Dolphins is that they stop the Bills at all in
Speaker 4: the second half. Like I don't know, you know, the
Speaker 4: Bills still scored thirty one points, but the fact that
Speaker 4: the Bills were punting in the second half, I've seen
Speaker 4: no evidence from this team that it can stop anybody. Dan,
Speaker 4: I really do believe that the defense is historically bad.
Speaker 2: Talking to Dan Levittard and a host of Metal Lark
Speaker 2: Media is the Dan Lebotard show that follows this on Peacock.
Speaker 2: You know, when you're quirky and you win, we're fine
Speaker 2: with that. When you're quirky and you don't win, then
Speaker 2: all of a sudden we start to pick apart your
Speaker 2: answers at a press conference. Here has the quirkiness, the
Speaker 2: nerdiness of Mike McDaniel warn off in South Florida.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that part is obvious, But the glee with which
Speaker 4: the quirkiness is being mocked by the Rex Ryans of
Speaker 4: the world who seemed to be delighting and calling him
Speaker 4: nerd boy and mcgenius because he had some of that
Speaker 4: Brandon Staley stuff where, oh, you think you're smarter than
Speaker 4: everyone else.
Speaker 7: Do you?
Speaker 4: He had reason to write for a minute, he had
Speaker 4: reason to believe that when they had the best offense
Speaker 4: in the league and Raheem Mostert had eighteen touchdowns at
Speaker 4: the running back position because it didn't seem to matter
Speaker 4: whether his offensive line was any good or not. They
Speaker 4: had offense. He took a quarterback that all of us
Speaker 4: wondered about and had that quarterback leading what was the
Speaker 4: best offense in the league. But there's something else happening
Speaker 4: with McDaniel, right, Because we don't really want our coaches
Speaker 4: to be interesting. They're they're better off being public faces
Speaker 4: and voices for a team. Jim Harbaugh is awfully quirky
Speaker 4: Dan like. I like him, but fans kind of would
Speaker 4: prefer that their coach just sort of be presidential, be
Speaker 4: somebody who connotes leadership and doesn't do very much with
Speaker 4: interesting sound bites. Like in the history of sports, when
Speaker 4: you think of the coaches who are real personalities, you
Speaker 4: know whatever, Steve Spurrier, Mike Leech, They're just there aren't
Speaker 4: very many that you think of Jerry Glanville, there just
Speaker 4: aren't very many that are wild personalities. They you know,
Speaker 4: Andy Reid, Bill Belichick. That tends to be what you get.
Speaker 2: Fans in South Florida. Would they rather have the you
Speaker 2: be great or the Dolphins to be great?
Speaker 4: Oh that's a good question, because I'm gonna say the
Speaker 4: Dolphins because it's the you know, fifty years of Dolphin
Speaker 4: football includes a time and I don't think your audience
Speaker 4: has any recollection of this. It includes a time where
Speaker 4: the Dolphins were the winningest franchise in all of sports,
Speaker 4: not just in football. They won by percentage more often
Speaker 4: than everyone else. And now they've got the longest drought
Speaker 4: in the sport, a sport that includes you know, the Bills.
Speaker 4: For a while, when seventeen seasons without getting to the playoffs.
Speaker 4: The Raiders haven't done anything in the playoffs in a
Speaker 4: long time, but the longest drought belongs to the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 4: And this began as a football town because of the
Speaker 4: Miami Dolphins. We still have an expressway here named after
Speaker 4: Don Shula because of what the Dolphins did a long
Speaker 4: time ago. And the Miami Hurricanes have had some recent success,
Speaker 4: some success this century. The last playoff game the Dolphins won,
Speaker 4: Dan Lamar Smith scored a touchdown. Again it's the Colts.
Speaker 4: It was not on television locally that there was a
Speaker 4: Dolphin playoff game that was so long ago that you
Speaker 4: could not see it locally in Miami.
Speaker 3: Can you think of another franchise where when you go
Speaker 3: to the game, you see this jersey and it's a
Speaker 3: jersey that is from a player who played decades ago
Speaker 3: in Dan Marino, like of all the different now you
Speaker 3: might see that with the Jets maybe, or the Bears
Speaker 3: with Walter Payton, But when you're thinking about the Dolphins,
Speaker 3: do you see other jerseys of you know, you know,
Speaker 3: anybody besides Dan Marino in the building.
Speaker 4: They're a good amount of TUA supporters. It is hard
Speaker 4: to support some of the things Tyreek Hill is, even
Speaker 4: if you're excited by him on the field, but this
Speaker 4: has been a fan base that is unusually starved for
Speaker 4: excellence because it's become a regional team, Dan, it's not
Speaker 4: a nat team. And one of the reasons that we're
Speaker 4: talking about them now is because for about a sixteen
Speaker 4: game span or maybe a twenty game span, they had
Speaker 4: an offense that was interesting, that could make big plays,
Speaker 4: and so for one brief moment there, this team had
Speaker 4: expectations that had people talking about it nationally. And what
Speaker 4: I've been surprised by the first three weeks of this season.
Speaker 4: You tell me if I have this wrong, because there
Speaker 4: are plenty of bad teams in that league, the Jets,
Speaker 4: the Saints, Carolina, but national laughingstock from coast to coast
Speaker 4: over the first three weeks of the season. That's been
Speaker 4: because they've got three very polarizing things as the face
Speaker 4: of their national identity, McDaniel, Tua and Tyreek Hill. And
Speaker 4: the weirdest thing about that, Dan, is I think TWOA
Speaker 4: is the most polarizing of the three. Think about that
Speaker 4: for a second, and it's just because we haven't been
Speaker 4: able to accurately measure, what is this guy like? Is
Speaker 4: he is he a franchise quarterback or is he not
Speaker 4: a franchise quarterback? That discussion made the conversation around to
Speaker 4: him more polarizing than the one around McDaniel, who can
Speaker 4: give off the quirkiness you speak of, and Tyreek Hill,
Speaker 4: who does some pretty awful things as being a menace
Speaker 4: to women and children.
Speaker 3: Thank you for taking time, Thank you for having me
Speaker 3: my best to the family.
Speaker 7: Thank you.
Speaker 4: I'm going to go home right now. And this is
Speaker 4: too much information, obviously, but see if I can try
Speaker 4: and make a little.
Speaker 3: Lebron LeBatard who.
Speaker 4: Look at the pure and interests of Dan.
Speaker 3: Patrick's cardle, I feel bad for your wife.
Speaker 4: My undulating sensuality is not persuasive to you.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Dan, Dan Lebtard. Did you hear that, Todd?
Speaker 9: It's pretty wild stuff over there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm rooting for him.
Speaker 1: Or in.
Speaker 2: Let's go metal art media is the Dan Levittard Show.
Speaker 2: You'll find it on YouTube, but you also find it
Speaker 2: on peacock. It follows our show. Okay, let's take a break,
Speaker 2: let's regroup here, come up with a new poll question.
Speaker 2: More phone calls as well. It's a meat Friday, and
Speaker 2: of course it's part of my job to inspect the
Speaker 2: meat Friday. And the chili looks delicious, and might I
Speaker 2: say it tastes delicious too. It's beef and cheriso chili.
Speaker 2: I remember when McLevin was out having sneaking food on
Speaker 2: a Friday and a meat Friday, and I could see
Speaker 2: him because I got cameras all over the place. And
Speaker 2: then I go out.
Speaker 3: And I said what are you doing?
Speaker 2: And it goes what And I said, no, wait until
Speaker 2: everybody else has meat Friday. And he goes, well, you
Speaker 2: had some. I go, my name is the show here, knucklehead?
Speaker 2: It was not that. And when he said, yeah, I
Speaker 2: don't know about the ribs, they didn't fall off the bone.
Speaker 2: That one was that didn't go well either, not exactly
Speaker 2: falling off the ball.
Speaker 3: I don't know, he said, not his best work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, unfortunately, Yes, it was all right, let's take a
Speaker 2: break here, let's.
Speaker 3: Take a break here. We'll come back after this Dan
Speaker 3: Patrick Show.
Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4: Hey it's me Rob Parker.
Speaker 10: Check out my weekly MLB podcast, Inside the Parker, for
Speaker 10: twenty two minutes of piping hot baseball talk featuring the
Speaker 10: biggest names of newsmakers in the sport. Whether you believe
Speaker 10: in analytics or the I test, We've got all the
Speaker 10: bases covered. New episodes drop every Thursday, so do yourself
Speaker 10: a favor and listen to Inside the Parker with Rob
Speaker 10: Parker on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcast.
Speaker 2: We've talked a lot about the Tom Brady the appearance
Speaker 2: of a conflict of interest being a broadcaster but also
Speaker 2: being part owner of the Raiders and then being in
Speaker 2: the coaching booth. Antonio Pierce, the former Raiders head coach,
Speaker 2: was on Mad Dog Radio and he talked about Tom
Speaker 2: Brady being a broadcaster and a minority owner.
Speaker 6: Michael Jordan was the owner for a long time of
Speaker 6: NBA team and then just recently I believe he was
Speaker 6: announced to be with nbcit correctly.
Speaker 8: YEP as helping him out.
Speaker 6: That didn't happen while he was owner, So this is
Speaker 6: unprecedent what we're seeing. I think I would be uncomfortable
Speaker 6: if there was the other way around, to be honest
Speaker 6: with you, because You're not dealing with this a normal person.
Speaker 6: Tom Brady is the elite of elite, one of the
Speaker 6: greatest quarterbacks, one of the greatest players in the game.
Speaker 6: It's not far for him to watch a few things
Speaker 6: on a Friday practice or hear things in the production
Speaker 6: meets and be like h and have tidbits. And he'd
Speaker 6: be foolish enough to think that he does not want
Speaker 6: to share that with the Raiders, because we had those
Speaker 6: conversations about certain things, right, and he was very informative
Speaker 6: about things that he's you are you still And that's
Speaker 6: why you bringing a guy like Tom bringing into the
Speaker 6: organization to be a minority.
Speaker 11: Organ because he gives you those.
Speaker 6: Aspects and different insights that some people can't give you.
Speaker 2: Antonio Pierce, the former Raiders head coach, with Adam Shine
Speaker 2: on Mad Dog Radio, it's it might die down a
Speaker 2: little bit, but then it's going to come back up.
Speaker 2: When the Bears play the Raiders in a week after
Speaker 2: the Bears play the Cowboys and Tom is calling that game,
Speaker 2: It's going to come back.
Speaker 3: It's not going away this year.
Speaker 2: And I think eventually the NFL is going to nudge
Speaker 2: Tom into maybe make a decision here and he would
Speaker 2: side with being the minority owner of the Raiders. Jeff
Speaker 2: in Youngstown, Hi, Jeff, how you knowing?
Speaker 4: Dan good?
Speaker 12: Jeff six one two eight. So my athletic back in
Speaker 12: the day. Okay, my son when he was born named
Speaker 12: them Spike after Spike Owns from the Boston Red Sox.
Speaker 12: Left the hospital all to come back two and a
Speaker 12: half days later, after a weekend of beer slides in
Speaker 12: my house and having a little bit of a party,
Speaker 12: my wife changed.
Speaker 3: His name and changed it from Spike to what Derek Derek, But.
Speaker 12: The name Spike stuck nickname spec for rest his life right.
Speaker 2: Maybe she was a Yankee fan called him Derek Derek Jeter,
Speaker 2: Spike Owen Whendy You Texas Longhorn, I believe Zachary in Pennsylvania, Hi, zach.
Speaker 11: Hi Dan, So, I know you were talking about the
Speaker 11: Push Push earlier and they said they wanted to crack
Speaker 11: down more and called the play tighter.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 11: Uh, well, uh. There's a weekly show that's done by
Speaker 11: the Eagles left tackle Jordan Mylatta, and he brought up
Speaker 11: the point that not only on a majority of those
Speaker 11: plays the defense lining up off side or I guess
Speaker 11: within the neutral zone, But they're also actually calling out
Speaker 11: the Eagles cadence, trying to get them to jump off side.
Speaker 11: So if they're gonna call the play tighter, are they
Speaker 11: gonna call it tighter both ways? Because the article that
Speaker 11: I read seems like they were gearing it more towards
Speaker 11: calling it tighter on the offense and not on the defense.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but these defenses are desperate and they're trying to
Speaker 2: gain an advantage. Can we can we mimic your cadence?
Speaker 2: Can we get you to jump off sides? Are we
Speaker 2: in the neutral zone? This is how this play will
Speaker 2: be eliminated from the NFL next year, in my opinion,
Speaker 2: because you can't officiate it all right, there's way too
Speaker 2: much going on here. All they have to do is
Speaker 2: take out the person in the backfield and then you
Speaker 2: could still do what is called a quarterback snake, and
Speaker 2: nobody can have a problem with that. But yes, I
Speaker 2: could see where the defense is lining up off sides
Speaker 2: in the neutral zone and if they're calling out your
Speaker 2: case stand all of this, But the play is here,
Speaker 2: so you got to deal with it. But you know,
Speaker 2: when you have Mark Maskiw the Washington Post say that
Speaker 2: the NFL is is putting the Eagles on notice.
Speaker 3: The Eagles shouldn't be nice.
Speaker 2: The officials who didn't call it correctly should be unnoticed.
Speaker 2: Brandon in Oklahoma, Hi Brandon, what's on your mind?
Speaker 6: Hi?
Speaker 3: Dan?
Speaker 13: First time, long time, six foot a lean one sixty five.
Speaker 13: So a couple things. My son is Finley Alexander warickx
Speaker 13: middle named Alexander after Alexander Emmanuel Rodriguez. And second part
Speaker 13: is nineteen ninety eight. I think spring training Port Charlotte, Florida,
Speaker 13: Texas Rangers. You and Pud Rodriguez did a I think
Speaker 13: Sports Center commercial. Yes, around the pitchers Now, I was
Speaker 13: in the background playing catch. I never saw that commercial air.
Speaker 13: Then I wondered if.
Speaker 3: You remember that.
Speaker 2: I do remember being there in Port Charlotte and uh,
Speaker 2: spend some time with Pudge.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: We were doing a few of those with athletes.
Speaker 2: I did one with Mike Piazza as well that that
Speaker 2: was a big campaign with Sports Center.
Speaker 3: Alan in Toledo, Hi, Alan, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8: Hey? Dan? Six foot, three hundred pounds, beefy. Hey, I
Speaker 8: went liveen to your show twenty four years ago.
Speaker 14: You were probably on ESPN radio at the time. I
Speaker 14: was on my way to work. Some guy called it
Speaker 14: and he said he named his son espen Espn. Well,
Speaker 14: not thinking my wife is gonna get pregnant again. Six
Speaker 14: months later, she's pregnant and we named our son espen Patrick,
Speaker 14: the singer, so using your last name.
Speaker 8: But he spent we spelled the named esp Een and
Speaker 8: he tent two and two weeks.
Speaker 3: And your wife was fine with that, Yes, she was that.
Speaker 8: Some other people weren't. But you know, we looked him
Speaker 8: up and there was the guy Espens and I don't
Speaker 8: remember if you remember his story. Yeah, yeah, so it
Speaker 8: was a real name. So it's esp e N and uh.
Speaker 8: One of the teachers at work when at school, when
Speaker 8: he was the school, he used to call him. They
Speaker 8: used to give that they.
Speaker 2: Well, thank you for sharing, Alan, Yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 2: That was a big deal with somebody named their kid
Speaker 2: espen espen Patrick.
Speaker 3: All right, thank you. I'm honored. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 15: Word of advice for anybody that's about to have a
Speaker 15: baby or will in the future, don't tell people what
Speaker 15: you're going to name the baby.
Speaker 2: It's very important, God, yes, because somebody will have a story,
Speaker 2: a negative story, or they know somebody or knew somebody
Speaker 2: who had that name, and then all of a sudden
Speaker 2: this happened with my mother in law. It didn't matter
Speaker 2: what name. She had a problem with everybody. And I
Speaker 2: said to my wife, I said, hunt, let's not tell her.
Speaker 2: Let's not tell her the next one. Okay, lie to her, Yes, Paulie.
Speaker 16: But there's also the thing when you like to run
Speaker 16: it by someone so you don't make a mistake, like
Speaker 16: either at the hospital, some type of neutral party or
Speaker 16: budsmen to say, like, don't name your kid that he's
Speaker 16: gonna get beat up.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, Marvin's grandmother named Marvin, and Marvin said that
Speaker 2: he was made fun of because he was named after
Speaker 2: Marvin Gay. And you know how kids can be. And
Speaker 2: if I said to his grandmother, you know they're gonna
Speaker 2: brough him up. I'm guessing your grandmother, as tough as
Speaker 2: she is, would still say, hey, he'll, he'll, he'll survive.
Speaker 15: Build's character.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Build's character. I didn't need an budsman to
Speaker 2: help me with any of my names. Me we couldn't
Speaker 2: get out of the hospital. Now, Okay, my wife and
Speaker 2: I had this discussion the other night. You have to
Speaker 2: name your child when you leave the hospital.
Speaker 3: Is that correct? Is that universal in the United States?
Speaker 16: Generally they want the paperwork done and filled out before
Speaker 16: you leave the hospital. You could change it on your own,
Speaker 16: but no.
Speaker 2: But you have to have a name for your baby
Speaker 2: when you leave the hospital.
Speaker 3: Correct, because we did change it six weeks later.
Speaker 2: But I think legally they don't allow you to get
Speaker 2: out of the hospital because I said to her, and
Speaker 2: she doesn't remember really when she delivered, you know, one
Speaker 2: of my daughters, and I said, Hunt, they said you
Speaker 2: got to have a name.
Speaker 3: I don't remember that. I go on, you don't remember anything.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you that they put the pressure on me
Speaker 2: because we thought that the baby was going to be
Speaker 2: a boy. We didn't have any girls' names. I said, Hun,
Speaker 2: just pick a name. So next thing you know, we
Speaker 2: got a name. Let's get out of here. Six weeks later,
Speaker 2: we're at the courthouse and we're changing the name.
Speaker 16: Yes, Paul, I read this that you do not necessarily
Speaker 16: have to name your baby before leaving the hospital. But
Speaker 16: it's much easier because the baby the hospital takes care
Speaker 16: of the paperwork on your behalf. If you leave the
Speaker 16: hospital without giving the baby the name, you have to
Speaker 16: do the paperwork with the state or city on your
Speaker 16: own at.
Speaker 4: A later date.
Speaker 3: Yeah. And I don't even know how we came up
Speaker 3: with Emily.
Speaker 2: It's like and I go, okay, let's go to I
Speaker 2: don't care, let's go let's get out of here. And
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden we started getting baby gifts
Speaker 2: and the baby's name was on like a little stool
Speaker 2: that you stand on to brush your teeth. And we
Speaker 2: had a babysitter who came over and she finally goes,
Speaker 2: whatever happened to Emily, and we go, oh, my gosh, No,
Speaker 2: we named her Georgia, named her after her father or
Speaker 2: her grandfather George.
Speaker 3: Yes. Time.
Speaker 9: I'd be bummed people like giving personalized gifts.
Speaker 17: Then to finally just randomly picked the name that was
Speaker 17: going to be changed six weeks later. I bought the
Speaker 17: special stuff to pay extra and you're trying to find
Speaker 17: the fancy thing to put their name on it. It's not
Speaker 17: even gonna be their name.
Speaker 3: Of course, you'd make it about you. Thank you, Todd.
Speaker 9: That's not cool.
Speaker 2: Uh, pedro in La Hi, Well you didn't get, you know,
Speaker 2: a baby gift for any of my kids.
Speaker 9: That's not fair. It's true, kid.
Speaker 2: Uh Pedro in la Hi Pedro, Hey guys, good morning,
Speaker 2: longtime listener for some color six six.
Speaker 18: Oh two fifty five. First off, shout out to the
Speaker 18: Grand High Grand High School Lancers, where I'm a math
Speaker 18: teacher Colin. Regarding the names, I don't know if you
Speaker 18: guys have heard that in Colombia a couple named their
Speaker 18: kids chat GPT. They didn't just type GPT, they spelled
Speaker 18: it out in Spanish, so it's a whole new name.
Speaker 18: I think it's making it's going to make it in
Speaker 18: twenty twenty five. What do you guys think?
Speaker 3: Thank you Pedro chat GBT. Is that what he said?
Speaker 4: Well?
Speaker 3: Good luck?
Speaker 16: You know, Paul, you know that nothing makes this is
Speaker 16: I'm Bill Pullman level of anger right now. Nothing makes
Speaker 16: me mad, more mad than when parents make it about
Speaker 16: themselves and the jutriment of their child with names.
Speaker 2: Because Paul doesn't like the late after Bill Polm, everyone knows,
Speaker 2: oh he is yes, no, no, he was late for
Speaker 2: a meeting. I'm oh, you thought I meant he was dead?
Speaker 2: Get oh, let me see uh Caveon in Phoenix, my caveon.
Speaker 3: Happy to meet Friday boys. Thank you.
Speaker 7: I first thought very excited about my youthes taken on
Speaker 7: Texas Tech tomorrow, go Utes. And I named my son
Speaker 7: Stockton after the greatest point guard in NBA history.
Speaker 8: John stock.
Speaker 2: I'm good with stock you. As my mom said, and
Speaker 2: she had twelve kids. If you have him, you name him.
Speaker 2: And she never ever said anything about you know a
Speaker 2: name and why'd you do that? Or never nothing? Yes, Todd,
Speaker 2: what happens?
Speaker 17: And I could relate to this certain extent. What if
Speaker 17: your kid ends up being kind of a Stocky fellow
Speaker 17: and now he's Stocky Stockton and just kind of walked
Speaker 17: into a problem there just because you wanted to honor
Speaker 17: a jazz basketball player.
Speaker 3: I don't think his last name was Stockton. I think is, But.
Speaker 2: Either way, I guess you know that you would have
Speaker 2: to factor that into.
Speaker 3: It's like having you know name speed, Yeah, and you're
Speaker 3: not fast Dart. You know Pete in Florida High Pete.
Speaker 3: What's on your mind?
Speaker 19: And it's a real pleasure. How you doing, Danetz? How's
Speaker 19: it going? I have three kids named after athletes. I
Speaker 19: was a huge Philadelphia Philly fan back in the day,
Speaker 19: and my oldest son, Steve, is named after Steve Carlton.
Speaker 19: My next son is Mike after Mike Schmidt, and my
Speaker 19: third son is Jeff after Jeff Hostetler, who was born
Speaker 19: two days after the Giants beat the Bills in that
Speaker 19: Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: I would have called him Has, Yes, has not Jaff
Speaker 3: do it?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Is it too late to change his name Pete?
Speaker 19: Yeah, that's for sure. But the funny thing is is
Speaker 19: my wife didn't catch on until like years later.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I would have called him has.
Speaker 2: I thought he was going to say name one of
Speaker 2: his kids Dalton after Darren Dutch Dalton, Yes, Martin.
Speaker 15: He was a Giants man. I thought Lawrence Taylor whatever
Speaker 15: his last name.
Speaker 3: Is, Yes, Todd.
Speaker 17: I don't want to rain on anybody's parade, but you
Speaker 17: run the risk if you name someone after an athlete
Speaker 17: or famous person and then they get into some kind
Speaker 17: of horrific trouble with the law. And they may have
Speaker 17: been great once, but we know of certain people that
Speaker 17: used to run for many yards of the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 17: All of a sudden, you're honoring someone at one plan.
Speaker 17: Next thing, you know, that's what's on top of their
Speaker 17: Google card.
Speaker 2: I like how you don't want to rain on anybody's parade,
Speaker 2: but there is that way, your whole DNA is to
Speaker 2: rain on somebody's per This person was great back.
Speaker 17: In the day, but then all of a sudden they
Speaker 17: committed some horrible act. And that's what you who you
Speaker 17: were named after?
Speaker 3: Pete in Charlotte, Hi, Pete, Hey.
Speaker 20: DP second time, long time. I have a friend of
Speaker 20: mine who, uh, his wife named his child the first
Speaker 20: name Nosmo, second name King.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard this before, Thank you, Pete, no smoking,
Speaker 2: no smoke King. Yeah, yeah, I had heard that. You
Speaker 2: know who told me that? And the late Howie Schwab
Speaker 2: said that his wife worked in a hospital and there
Speaker 2: was a sign that the family didn't have a name,
Speaker 2: and they decided and their last name was King. Now
Speaker 2: Howie Schwab stumped the Schwab swore that this was true.
Speaker 2: Their last name was King, and they called the baby
Speaker 2: Nosmo as no smoking. I'm gonna trust the great Howie Schwab. Yes, Pauline,
Speaker 2: that's where secure already.
Speaker 16: The hospital should turn those parents around, walk them upstairs
Speaker 16: and put them in a room and say we got
Speaker 16: to fix this.
Speaker 2: When we come back. The most must win game of

Speaker 2: Last call for phone calls, what we learn, what's in
Speaker 2: store for Monday, This day in sports History, and the
Speaker 2: most must win game of the weekend the mmwg ot
Speaker 2: W Paulie, I'm going to start with you.
Speaker 3: The most must win game of the weekend is Notre Dame.
Speaker 16: Versus Purdue is too obvious, so I'm going to go
Speaker 16: Illinois fighting a line versus Indiana. Illinois rank ninth. If
Speaker 16: they can get a couple more wins before that Ohio
Speaker 16: State game, they can afford a loss to Ohio State
Speaker 16: and maybe sneak in the playoffs. But they have to
Speaker 16: win before that, so I have to beat India.
Speaker 3: Todd the most must win game of the weekend, Paul,
Speaker 3: he took.
Speaker 9: Me out of going with Notre Dame having to beat Produce.
Speaker 9: I'm gonna go with the other obvious one. On the
Speaker 9: NFL side, the Chiefs do not want to go to
Speaker 9: in three by.
Speaker 3: Losing maybe not one. They should not.
Speaker 9: Lose and they should not lose to them, and they
Speaker 9: can't be oh in three.
Speaker 2: I always like when a quarterback throws an interception and
Speaker 2: the announcer goes, he'd like to have that one back. Really,
Speaker 2: what if he said, no, it was a good throw.
Speaker 2: You know whatn't my fault? Seaton most must win game
Speaker 2: of the weekend, Your Tennessee Titans must win.
Speaker 5: Whoa, this is a must win game for the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 5: They're playing Indianapolis. They're about to go on the road
Speaker 5: for three straight, four out of five, something like that.
Speaker 5: They've lost eight straight games going back to last season.
Speaker 5: You need to turn this one around. They've lost four
Speaker 5: consecutive divisional games. They need to win this weekend. What
Speaker 5: if they end up with the number one pick in
Speaker 5: the draft and he already took your quarterback. Yeah, great, pressures.
Speaker 2: Off unless you look at another quarterback and you go,
Speaker 2: he might be better.
Speaker 3: This is supposed to be a quarterback rich draft.
Speaker 2: Oh by the way, every year the following year it's
Speaker 2: a quarterback rich draft.
Speaker 16: Yes, point, I got a quick pie in the face
Speaker 16: bet the number one pick in the upcoming draft will
Speaker 16: not be a quarterback.
Speaker 7: Not be.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 2: Arch Manning isn't going to come out now? Okay, does
Speaker 2: anybody want to bet that the number one pick in
Speaker 2: the draft is not a quarterback?
Speaker 3: Melvin Now, I'm with Paula on this one.
Speaker 2: Oh you are, well, who do you think is going
Speaker 2: to be the number one pick in the draft?
Speaker 4: Not a quarterback?
Speaker 15: I'm gonna say edge rusher?
Speaker 3: Okay. Most must win game of the weekend, Mormon.
Speaker 15: The Chicago Bears. They got a game at home against
Speaker 15: the Cowboys, and Ben Johnson just called out your team
Speaker 15: for lack of effort.
Speaker 2: It has to be the Chiefs because we're looking at
Speaker 2: the bigger picture of the Chiefs being back as the Chiefs,
Speaker 2: winning a division, making the playoffs, being a Super Bowl contender.
Speaker 17: Yes, Hunt, If the Bears don't give a championship caliber
Speaker 17: effort against the Cowboys, what are we going to say
Speaker 17: about Chicago on Monday.
Speaker 2: That they didn't give a championship caliber performance?
Speaker 9: You're a Ben's ready to take them to the NFC
Speaker 9: title game. I mean you're one.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, you better worry about your Broncos against
Speaker 2: I have.
Speaker 9: Some concerns about that game. Do you need to win
Speaker 9: that for first place? After three weeks?
Speaker 2: This day in sports history, you know, the Texans are
Speaker 2: getting into the most must win game of the weekend
Speaker 2: as well.
Speaker 3: This day in sports history Paul.
Speaker 16: Nineteen ninety nine, Sammy Sosa became the first Major League
Speaker 16: ball player to hit sixty home runs twice. And this
Speaker 16: is a fun one, well not for him. Tom Gamboa
Speaker 16: of the Kansaity Royals first base coach, I think, was
Speaker 16: attacked by a man and his son a Commiss Park.
Speaker 16: Stay in there for first base. They the two men
Speaker 16: were charged with battery.
Speaker 2: But the weird part was it was beat up a
Speaker 2: first base coach day at Comisky, So I think it
Speaker 2: was you get to bring your son and beat up
Speaker 2: a first base coach.
Speaker 16: Their bonding, their dad and their son. They're having fun together.

Speaker 16: Wow, I'm sorry, I'm a fair question.
Speaker 17: I'm gonna probably lean towards no, but not intentionally, I know.
Speaker 17: But you probably provide a certain amount of aggravation and
Speaker 17: that effects blood pressure, and you know, you may want
Speaker 17: to get some labs drawn in the coming days to
Speaker 17: see where you're.
Speaker 9: At, some labs for your local Quest Lab center.
