Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'll kick the Coverage with Clay Travis Live every weekday
morning from six to nine a m. E Stern three
to six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio. Find your
local station for OutKick the coverage at Fox Sports Radio
dot com or stream us live every morning on the
I Heart Radio app by searching fs are you're listening
(00:23):
to Fox Sports Radio. We got a lot to get
into the Clippers tank. Give up a three one series
lead the Denver no Nemver, Nooggets. That would be an
interesting uh, a lot less of an interesting team name.
I would say, the Denver Nuggets have managed to advance
and uh, let's listen to what it sounded like at
(00:44):
the end of the Clippers game and at the end
of the Nuggets game. According to their radio networks, the
Denver Nuggets time enfranchise history in the Western Conference Finals.
One O four to eighty nine is the final this nation.
Let's go the shot clock turned off. P J Dozer
has it in and he will bring it across the
(01:06):
timeline and dribble out the clock. The Clippers go up
three one on the Denver Nuggets and dropped the final
three games of this best of seven series. Best result
obviously the Denver Nuggets get the win. Worst result in order.
Number one, the NBA. They were gonna have l A
(01:26):
versus l A Kauai against Lebron, Paul George against Anthony Davis,
the battle for the NBA title coming out of the
city of Los Angeles. Instead, the Clippers do what the
Clippers do. They lost their eighth straight game that would
have allowed them to advance to the conference finals. They
gave up a three one series lead, and as a result,
the NBA is in trouble. Also, Doc Rivers looking bad
(01:48):
here and maybe number two on this list looking bad.
Paul George. That shot off the backboard is gonna be
hard to live down in a do or die game.
He did not he died, He did not do Uh. Also,
we had the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.
I know a lot of you are like, wait a minute,
the NBA is going on. I've been paying attention to
the NFL. I've been paying attention to college football, have
(02:09):
been following all this ridiculousness surrounding the Big Ten. No,
it's going on. Uh and uh. Block of the decade
perhaps made by Bam down the stretch. Jayson Tatum went
in and overtime, tried to seal the deal by bringing
home the thunder instead. This is what it sounded like,
Tatums trying to get space Tatum all the way in.
Tatum's block left the rim by Bam wrt A block
(02:30):
by Bam at a bio has Tate went in to
slam it down and Bam said, not a chance here
in Orlando, Miami heat. Now I believe I'm doing the
math here correctly. You know, live math on this show
is always a challenge. I think they're nine and one
in the in the postseason. I mean they've only played
ten games total. They have won nine of them. The
(02:50):
only game they lost, I believe game four against the Bucks,
if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, yeah, So they're nine and one.
The city of Los Angeles, the Laker fans exalting, uh,
and that will be what did I say? When is
Game one of the Western Conference Finals tomorrow? Friday? Friday? Okay,
Game one of the Western Conference Finals on Friday? And
(03:11):
that is where we are in the n B A uh.
If you're just waking up with us what I've been
talking about on the program something by the way, we're
gonna go be joined by Chris Mannox, who is our
NBA expert in the next segment, who will be breaking
all that down, a couple of other stories that are
worth paying attention to as the Big Ten turns. I'm
told that again, as I told you guys on Saturday,
(03:32):
October seventeenth, is looking like the start date for the
Big Ten. Although they need to go ahead and get
that officially announced, it has not yet ended up happening,
so we will see what the progression is there from
for purposes of uh the Big Ten being able to start. Now,
Pact twelve players are starting to rise up after basically
(03:55):
six weeks of silence when their season was canceled. A
lot of different Pack twelve players now stepping up and
saying they want to play. They're seeing their Big Ten
brethren be allowed to play, recognizing that they're the only
Power five conference that isn't gonna be playing, and they
are now starting to advocate calling out governors in their
states for not allowing them to play. Whether it's California,
(04:17):
whether it's Oregon, whether it's Washington. All of these different
activities under way as the schools in the Pact twelve
now decide to step up and argue that they deserve
to be involved in the UH in the overall process.
All right, so we have got a lot going on.
I'm gonna mention it off the top here as well.
(04:38):
We now have added more talent out there in general UH.
If you are familiar, we got a fun addition to OutKick.
We added a couple of new talent. Greg Couch, who
is doing work has been really successful media member out
of the Chicago area for a long time. He has
now joined OutKick. And we have also added Jason King,
(05:00):
who has done a good job covering things for years
and years as well. Two more big additions and now
another edition, Club Pro Guy at club pro Guy on Twitter,
UH is a really fun follow if you like golf.
Just in time for the US Open, we have added
UH club Pro Guy and I think you guys are
(05:22):
gonna enjoy his content if you are a fan of
golf at all. Just in time for the US Open.
They they that crew is officially joining out kick as well,
just to take us even further into the stratosphere as
a media company. But as a media company, we are
doing well. Our audience is continuing to grow. Thank you
(05:44):
to all. Thanks to all of you, for making that happen.
Who's not growing as the NFL. And we talked a
lot about this in the program already, but I'm reading
directly from the from the OutKick site when it comes
to the official numbers, and the data reflects that many
people are tuning out on the NFL, particularly in the
(06:06):
primetime games. And let me run through here. Monday Night Football,
the first part of the doubleheader, down nearly eight percent.
By the way, I want to give props. How good
were Kirk curb Street and Chris Fowler calling that game?
I mean, they were absolutely fantastic. They were better than
most NFL announced teams and they hadn't even called a
(06:26):
game together before. Monday Night Football game two down twenty
eight percent, NBC Sunday Night Football down percent uh and
CBS early games down nearly twelve percent. The kickoff game
on NBC down nearly set a little bit over seven percent.
The only people who were up were Fox, and Fox
(06:49):
was up to a large extent because they had the
best game of the week, Drew Brees against Tom Brady,
the Saints going up against the Buccaneers. Why are these
numbers collapsing particularly but us there are one point two
million people who theoretically would have been sitting in the
stands watching in person that are now sitting at home.
And also because out of home viewing is now being
(07:10):
counted in these numbers. I think it's because the NFL
has gone woke. We have had open phone lines for
a while. We are allowing you guys to weigh in.
Tell us did you watch? If not? Why did you
not watch? Eight? Seven, seven, six, three six nine Again.
Chris mannix R NBA Insider will be with us next,
but we're taking your calls. Who's up next? Up? We
(07:31):
got Blake in Denver, Blake, what you got for me? Eight?
Did you watch? If not? Why I watched the first game?
It was too late for the second game, and I'm
fining to that. Yeah, And I just want to know
is that tiger toss? That's thanks for the call. Uh.
By the way, that was a late game. I think
(07:53):
a lot of us are still recovering. Who stayed up
that gave it an until after one thirty Eastern the
Titans game against the Denver Broncos. He's line to Nashville.
The tiger was not in Nashville. It was in Knoxville.
Danny g do we have an update on what happened
with the tiger? The last thing I think you told
us was somebody said they might have gotten confused and
it might have been what like a mountain lion instead
(08:13):
of a tiger. Bobcat, Yeah, bobcat, mountain lion, like all
those things are kind of the same word basically. But okay,
so do we get any update or is there still
potentially a tiger loose? It was in Knoxville, not Nashville, right,
and I have not seen any new news on that alright,
So we just have to wait and see whether the
tiger is gonna kill someone or not, or whether it
(08:34):
was just somebody who had gotten drunk in Tennessee and
thought they saw something they didn't. By the way, as
someone who has often gotten drunk in Tennessee and seen
things that he thought he didn't, I am not going
to take any shots there, particularly because people haven't even
had to start drinking heavily, because the University of Tennessee
football season hasn't even begun yet. Who's up next in
North Carolina? Bob? Yeah, Hey, what's up? I love the show,
(09:02):
appreciate and I did try and watch a little bit
this weekend um and it's not the social justice stuff
doesn't really bother any so much because I could just
I can tune in, you know, after kickoff and watch
a little bit. But I was trying to watch the
Monday night games and I had to turn it off
because it's the Corona thing that really bothers me. I
(09:24):
can't stand watching all of the just virtue signaling math
wearing on the sideline and everybody's on the sidelines touching
their maths, pulling their masks down, pulling them up. And
then at the end of the Pittsburgh Giants game, they've
worn their maths and social distance sort of on the
sideline the whole game, and then they all come to
the middle of the field. They're shaking hands, they're hugging.
(09:46):
There's no math, thank you for that the whole It's
it's cosmetic theater, right And I've talked about this. If
you go out to a dinner in a in a restaurant,
like I'm going out to dinner tonight, I will have
to put on my mask to say like, hey, you know, Travis,
party of whatever, and they'll be like, okay, follow me,
(10:08):
and they'll take me to the table and as soon
as I sit down, I will take my mask off.
Who am I protecting in the forty five seconds that
I wear a mask into the restaurant and sit down
at my table and then immediately take it off. That's ludicrous, right,
same thing. I went to movies. I've been to three
movie going to movie theater three different times the last month.
(10:30):
In order to walk into the movie theater, I have
to have a mask on. As soon as I buy
popcorn and a drink, I can take my mask off,
and I can leave it off for the entire movie. Again,
of the time that I am physically present inside of
that structure, I don't have to have a mask on.
It feels like I'm dressing up to be able to
(10:52):
get seated. I don't know what the situation is in
California for you guys, but I definitely noticed that when
it's on television, like all of these guys have masks
on the sideline, and they're like, we need to socially
distance then personally play a game where they tackle each
other throughout the entire game, and then at the end
of the game they all meet and they shake hands
and they don't have masks on, but for some reason,
(11:14):
the coaches need to have masks on on the sideline.
It doesn't make sense. And oh, by the way, I
feel the same way about the NBA bubble, Like you're
in the bubble. You don't need to have masks. Masks
on in the bubble, you're getting tested every single day.
Like it's all cosmetic theater, it seems like to me.
(11:36):
And so I'm all, look, I'm not the guy who's
gonna be like I'm gonna throw a fit over I
have to have a mask to go into a store,
Like I was in Target yesterday going out buying things
with my kids for for their birthday. I was with
my parents there, um and uh, and we went to
the mall and all that stuff. And I'm not gonna
be the guy who's like, I'm gonna fight over whether
or not i have to have a mask on. Like
(11:56):
if I go into Costco and they require me to
put a mask on, I'll put a mask on right,
same thing, like I wear shoes and I wear a shirt.
I don't think it's that big of a deal. But
the restaurant thing, to me is just totally ridiculous. Like
a couple of different times, same thing with the movies.
I have forgotten my mask, turned around, had to walk
back to my car, got in the mask, walked in,
(12:20):
put it on for thirty seconds. Said hey, yeah, Clay Travis.
Here we got a dinner reservation. They're like, okay, thank you,
Mr Travis. They walked me to my table. I immediately
take my mask off. What is the point of having
a mask in a restaurant if you only wear it
for thirty seconds? It doesn't make any sense to me.
Who's up next? We got Harold in North Hollywood. Harold
in North Hollywood. What you got for my man? Look, Travis,
(12:43):
I show. Yeah, this is your show. That's right, my show.
When you when you turn into politics, that bothers me.
I resented because I get up in the morning. It's
scurely here in the great state of California. When you
hit the Trump sunner that that reading. Boy, So you
think I should say no? Hold on, Harold? You think
the President of the United States wants to come on
(13:04):
the show? You think I should tell him? No? Yes,
you do. Why don't you get know you turned into politics? No? No,
but I've been had Harold. I just want to I
just want to confirm one more time. If the president
of the United States, let's say Joe Biden wins. If
Joe Biden calls up out Kick and he says, hey,
I want to come on the radio show, you think
I should turn down Joe Biden question. No, I'm asking
(13:26):
you a question. You said that you were offended that
I had the President of the United States on the show.
I'm just asking you if the political party were different,
if Barack Obama had wanted to come on my radio show,
and we started this radio show and we were just
getting going, and Barack Obama and the White House had
reached out and they said, hey, the President would like
to come on your show. You think I should have
said no to Obama? You know what, you're showing your
(13:48):
true colors by putting the President of the United States
on the show. You've down't played this from the beginning
of virus. We have lost over two hundred almost two
hundred thousand people. And you a restaurant. Do you know
how many people pay? Harold? Do you know how many
people die every year in the United States? I don't
want to hear that. You know how many? Well that's
kind of significant, right, two point eight million people die
(14:11):
every year in the United States. Every single day, Harold,
people die and that's unfortunate. But you know what, we
could have avoided all these deaths. To Travis, look at
the facts, look at the science. What what facts and
science do you have for me? Haven't you been listening
to news? It? Would you just hold on? Harold? I
(14:33):
want to I want to point something out. You called
into my show to complain about politics and immediately wanted
to talk about the coronavirus and the fact that I
had the President of the United States on the show.
You didn't call it to talk about sports at all.
You said you resented the show. You said you were
upset that I had the president on, and you immediately
said that the coronavirus like way too many people had died.
(14:53):
You didn't talk about anything sports. Don't I'll talk about sports,
talk about sport. Well, I mean you called me, Harold, Yeah,
don't turn it around. I'm not turning anything around. You
called me and immediately said we shouldn't have the president on.
You're being untruthful. How am I being untruth You can know? No?
(15:16):
What what did you have Joe Biden on to see
what he could say? Well, first of all, Joe Biden
has an invitation, but you just told me I shouldn't
have him on. You were upset that I had the
president on? Do you have Junior on? For Junior Adam One?
Because I thought he was an interesting guest. By the way,
what's interesting is, Harold, you seem upset about the show,
(15:38):
but you know an awful lot about the show. You
guess when he goes on there and continues to lie
and you you kisses both of their behinds, You're that's disgusting.
You're disgusted by the show. I'm disgusting by what you
You turn the show into politics. I'm passionate about this
and I'm really upset, and you can on every day
(16:00):
you're talking about, oh, we got to go listen football.
We don't think you don't. You have not taken this
steak seriously since the beginning. I want I want everybody
to go to work. I want everybody to go to school.
I want everybody to play sports. I'm consistent about that.
You live your life, you where you want to. But
if you lost a loved one from the virus, you
(16:22):
wouldn't be talking like this. I disagree. I think that
people are look again, thanks for Harold. You haven't said anything.
Do you have any actual point that you want to make? Okay,
thank you. You have a nice state to Harold. Uh,
Harold's upset that we had the president of United States
on Harold's upset that I want people to go back
to work and back to school and play sports. And
(16:45):
Harold was upset that we talked too much politics on
the show, but he only called in to give me
a political opinion. Well, here's pretty straightforward. We are always
going to have on this program the President of the
United States on this program. Whenever we can have the
President in the United States on this program. That's whether
it is Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, George Bush,
(17:07):
Joe Biden, whoever the president is. You can disagree with
me on a lot if the president, if the White
House reaches out and says the President would like to
do your show, the answer is always gonna be okay, period.
And if that upset you, you can go listen to
a much less successful radio show somewhere else in the country.
(17:29):
But I think the vast majority of Americans, regardless of
what their background is, are going to say, you know what,
President probably makes sense for Clay Travis to have the
President of the United States, and w said, Harold always
calls into complain. Yeah, Harold calls. He's a frequent caller.
(17:49):
And uh, every time I asked, you know, what's your name?
Where are you calling from, it's an oh no, no,
I don't want to get on the air. I'm I'm
trying to sleep. I'm trying to sleep every time. I mean,
height is once a week. I'd say, what's interesting is
Harold listens to a lot of the show to have
all these different complaints. Like what I learned early on
in radio was some people get worried about complaints. Right,
(18:12):
I'm not the guy who cares about complaints. I just
genuinely don't care. But what is amazing to me is
the people who complain always cite like things that have
been going on for months. They're like, well, six weeks
ago you said X, and then two weeks ago you
said why, and then four days ago you said Z.
(18:33):
And I'm like, if you really hate this show, what
kind of sado masochists are you to listen every single
day for the entire time. And the truth is, I'm
not one of these people, but some people have a
hater gene and they get titillated by being angry, and
so they listen to the show. It doesn't really matter
to me whether you listen to the show because you
(18:54):
think I'm the greatest human being of all time. You're right,
by the way, if that's why you listen, or if
you think I'm the worst human being of all time,
it doesn't really matter to me. I was having this
conversation with my wife last night. She was like, what
percentage of the American sports audience in sports do you
think like you? And I was like thirty. She was like,
(19:15):
you think sixty percent of people don't like you? And
I was like, yeah, I think i'd be a thirty
five percent approval rating. She was like, that doesn't bother you,
and I said, no, thirty five percent is pretty good.
I said. In my business, it isn't a problem if
people like you or don't like you. It's a problem
if people don't care. Right, Like, the thirty five percent
(19:35):
who loved me, they would take a bullet for me.
They're out there fighting in the streets every day for
out kick the sixty percent who don't like me. I
don't really care about him, and that might not even
be accurate. It might be fifty fifty, it might be
pent like me and don't like me. I don't know
what the percentages are. I said, I feel like thirty
(19:56):
like me is pretty good. Fiver decided to run elective office.
I could get to fifty. Put a couple of television
ads up, boom, I'm at fifty one, dub of anybody
else waiting. I want to try to get people in
before we go to mann x IF. So yeah, let's
go quick. We got Charlie and Dayton, Charlie and Daton.
What you got for me? What's going on? Play? Uh?
I watched as much football as I could from Thursday
(20:20):
on up to Monday. But I was confused on Thursday
because A Leicia Keys played like five songs and I
didn't know which one was the actual Black national anthem.
And I think it's starting to get to the point
like it is a one upsmanship thing where each league
has to do a thing and then the other league
has to react, because I think to the point where
(20:42):
like I didn't even know a black national anthem existed.
I didn't either, and I would imagine, I would imagine
most black people don't know they're like, what the hell
are you talking about? Is there? I mean, the thing
I wonder thanks for? Is there an Asian national anthem?
And is there a Hispanic national anthem? And why are
we excluding Hispanic and Asian people from playing their national
(21:04):
anthem too? And is there a white national anthem? Because
I think of the national anthem, you know, like the
national anthem, the point of it is it unites everybody,
like the same reason you have a flag, Like everybody
is united under the symbol of the flag. I think
of the national anthem as uniting everybody. The idea that
each race should have a national anthem, I don't know.
(21:26):
I don't know what white people would pick as our
national anthem, Actually I do. I think we would pick, uh,
what's the song that they play, uh that they always
play at the Red Sox game. Oh, you know, I
think Sweet Caroline would be the white national anthem. Like
I think if white people had to vote on what's like,
you've never seen a white person not sing along to
(21:47):
Sweet Caroline. I really that's why the Red Sox like
the whitest fan base on the planet. I really think
that if the if there was a white national anthem,
it would be Sweet Caroline, And he just said he
would kneel during Sweet Carol. What Eddie? What would uh Eddie?
And uh what would the Hispanic national anthem be? Roberto,
do you have a suggestion? Um, I can't think of
(22:08):
something right now on top of my hand. Kid frosts.
Oh yeah, Kid frost Laurassa. I mean, I don't have
any idea of with the Hispanic national anthem b in
the United States, I feel like Sweet Caroline would be
the white national anthem, lift every voice and seeing as
the black national anthem, although I think a lot of
people would rather have jay Z brush your shoulders off,
like like if you could actually vote, this is the
(22:31):
Hispanic national anthem? Oh? Yeah, you know what, This is
a great song. This is a good this on behalf
of Hispanic people. I think there are a lot of
Hispanic people like I like this. Yeah, this is a solid,
solid selection. What what about should we were like Italian's
Old Blue Eyes. Well, it's a good question. I mean,
(22:52):
should we open up phone lines only for Asian people
for the final segment and let them draft an Asian
national anthem? Yeah, Caroline gonna be controversial for white people.
I think it's a pretty good pick. And I think
that's a great pick that you just pulled for for
Hispanic people there, it's a great call. I I just
I don't know what the Asian national anthem would be
should we have we ever had Asian only callers. That's
(23:14):
what we're gonna do for the final segment of the show,
only Asian people, they get to select the national anthem
for Asian people living in the United States. Be sure
to catch live editions about Kicked the coverage with Clay
Travis weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific. Chris mannocks,
we may have to talk to tomorrow. One of the
things you learn about morning radio is lots of people
sleep through morning radio interviews. But a couple of things
(23:36):
that I wanted to hit here, uh and uh and
I think this is interesting the the sort of idea
in general of herd immunity has been continued to give
more and more credence in the world of athletics. Do
you say, guys, See, Coacho came out and said he
thinks basically his entire team, most of the team, I think,
he said, has already had the coronavirus. Well, the corona
(23:58):
bros and sports media have been, you know, just in
an uproar ever since the Big Ten basically decided to
come back. Now the Pact twelve wants to come back,
and they're realizing that sports can be played safely because
Major League Baseball has been going a long time now
without any severe issues. In the NFL, there's almost no
positive tests at all. Uh, the SEC comes back next week,
(24:19):
the tennis is going on. The US Open golf tournament
starts this weekend. Like, whatever your perspectives are, we've had
a lot of people out there that have been able
to come back and play well. An Alabama student has
been uh. He said, he decided to prank all of
the Corona Ros in sports media, and so he sent
an email big story tip to Dan Woken at USA Today,
(24:43):
who is one of the king Corona Rose and he said, here,
I'm reading his email. I just tweeted this out, Dan
student at Alabama here, after reading your article about her immunity,
I have something you might want to look into. I
have a friend on the football team who told me
that a bunch of Alabama play has had a COVID
house party so they could get the virus and develop
(25:04):
her immunity earlier in the summer. You are welcome. A
few minutes later, Dan Wilkin writes back, High, I wouldn't
be surprised if that were true. Any details you know
about that that I could try to track down. Uh,
So there you go. Uh, players are actually uh now
pranking everybody out there. Uh in the world of not sorry,
(25:28):
students are pranking Corona bros. Out there. That's pretty entertaining.
What do you think do you think? Now here's the question,
So that's entertaining in and of itself. As we go
and get ready for the final segment, how many Asian
people do you think we'll call in to draft the
Asian National Anthem? We've never asked for Asian only callers.
(25:48):
Do you think we are popular in the Asian community?
Danny g oh, yeah. Do you think we have a
lot of Asian listeners that are gonna load up the
phone lines for w answer phones all day? What do
you do you think we'll have loaded lines from the
Asian community to draft the Asian National Anthem? I mean,
I'm expecting at least a half dozen calls here coming
up during this commercial break. All right, Uh, what would
(26:10):
you say as a white man, Dub about my drafting
of Sweet Caroline on on behalf of white America as
the white national anthem. I think that would be a
popular selection selection would you suggest to otherwise? I think
maybe for the younger millennial generation, I think something by
Blink one eighty two would be more sufficient. Maybe I
miss you by Blink wantity two because whenever that song
(26:31):
comes on in the bars, let me tell you what,
all the white kids are belting it out. As a
twenty five year old, you're telling me, blink, do we
have that song? Danny g on the on the playlist there,
we'll look for it right now. And by the one,
by the way, tweeted in and said, Clay, the white
national anthem is Cowboy from kid Rock. Yeah. You know
we did this a while back where we were like, um,
(26:54):
we took calls on is this the blink win? This is?
This is we turn it up. Every white person is
starting to sway. All of white America right now is
just like turning up their radios. You're telling me, Dub,
this is you're telling me this is given Sweet Carolina
run just give it a few seconds here now, hello there,
(27:17):
This is a long intro I think by the way,
ratings through the roof right now, oh oh, it got
me right in the heart time. I gotta be honest
with you, though I did, I do have children. I
gotta tell you this is a great song. It's kind
of sad though, Like right, Sweet Caroline is like an
uplifting ballad. This is, like you know, like, this is
(27:40):
not a very positive song. Right, did you agree to
for for the white national anthem? I feel like it
needs to be uplifting. Well, it's about to get uplifted.
All right, here we go. This is this is where
the white this is where white people get their wings.
Let's bring it home. This is not the white national anthem.
I'm sorry, dub you on behalf of all your millennial
(28:02):
loser friends need to apologize for trying to make this.
This is a good song. This is not the white
national anthem. It is Sweet Caroline Hammered? Are you at
the bar when the song comes out? Super hammered? All right?
Can we play the Hispanic National Anthem for people who
are just waking? Roberto has drafted the Hispanic National Anthem.
By the way, Eddie, do you agree with roberto selection
here or would you prefer a different Hispanic national anthem.
(28:25):
I'm actually uh in complete agreement with Roberto on this one. Yeah,
this is this is part of my segment on this up.
This is a positive but crank this up. This is
a positive song like this is. I can see this
being connected to Sweet Caroline, and I don't know how
this doesn't make you smile. I mean, like this is
that this is the I love this selection as a
(28:46):
Hispanic national anthem. Now I will say this, let every
voice and sing. I think black people would prefer apple
bottom jeans. I'm just gonna say the flow ride a song?
What is that song called? I'm just saying, like, do
we have do we have the apple bottom jeene song?
I'm just saying if I had, Like, if you're thinking
uplifting songs that everybody loves, what's the what's the name
(29:09):
of that flow right of apple bottom gene song? There's
not a single person on the planet that if this
do we do we have that? If we're trying to
unite all of the races, all right, I really feel
like Sweet Caroline. White people love to do like the
dunt dunt uh, like you know, like using their hands
like they're playing the drums or the symbols or whatever
(29:29):
the heck it is. And then that Hispanic national anthem.
Everybody likes to dance to that. I'm really telling you,
instead of lift every voice and singing, if they played
apple bottom Jeans the flow right a song, I think
it would unite America more. I'm just saying, if we
have to play a bunch of different songs before the
national anthem on behalf of all the different races, do
(29:52):
we have it? Do we not have it in the system.
This is a sign of white supremacy. If we don't
have the apple bottom jeans and the and the song,
do we have it? Here? We go clays about two
Uh's got a couple of coronas in this system right now,
I'm telling you if they played this before the game
(30:12):
and everybody just lined up on the field, I'm telling you,
if they started with Sweet Caroline, Like if we had
you DJ Danny g as a mixtape master here and
we were like to unite America the white national and
we need to put a mix together the white national
anthem Sweet Caroline comes on. No, this one right here
could actually be the white national anthem. No, I'm telling
(30:33):
you right now, if they played this, nobody would kneel
the everybody and nobody would ever kneel for apple bottom
jeans would be kind of hard to standard attention though too,
be kind of bopping around a little bit. Yeah, I
mean you gotta have a little bit of sway. That's okay,
that unites, That unites the whole stadium. All right. So
what is the Asian national anthem? I don't know. Only
(30:55):
Asian callers get to pick their national anthem right now
eight seven seven nine six six three six nine. First
ever Asian only request, and I have no idea. Dubbed
the phones better start ringing. Asian people get to pick
their national anthem to play before the start of NFL games.
(31:15):
What will it be? I'm intrigued, you're intrigued. This is
out Kick on Fox Sports Radio. And before we find
out what that anthem is going to be, Farmers has
a word for us. You get a whole lot of
something with Farmers policy perks so much I'm gonna have
to speed things up. You can get new car replacements,
so if your car is total, Farmers will pay to
replacement with a new one of the same, making up
like were uniting with an old friend, but you got
(31:35):
a benefit of that new car smell. So it's really
new car and new car smell replacement. Get a whole
lot of something with farmers policy perks start with a
quote by calling one eight hundred farmers. We are farmers.
Not for the legal something that covers not available in
every scene, only available with like pharmos ratic policy terms
and condition underwritten. The farmerstcrip and farre insure exchanges are failing.
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
(31:57):
the nation. Catch all of our shows, said Fox Sports
Radio dot com and within the I Heart Radio app
search f s R to listen live. That is all
of the national anthems coming back rolling out. Do we
have a do we have anything out there? In terms
of calls, dub What is going on right now there? Well,
(32:21):
the phone, first of all, was ringing off the hook.
We got four Asian callers on hold at the moment,
but there was you know, all different parties calling and
making their own suggestions. But this is an exclusively Asian
call list, all right, Asian callers only. And by the way,
good news coming in the Big ten shortly. By the way,
you never know what you're gonna get on the show.
Good news about the return of Big ten Big ten football.
(32:45):
By the way, my dad also just texted me and said,
as a senior citizen, Jeremiah was a bull frog, would
be his voice? Vote for the senior citizen national anthem,
which I don't even know if we have that in play.
Jeremiah was a bull frog? Senior is a national anthem?
All right, Asian national anthem. We have callers? Who is it? All?
(33:05):
We got Vincent in Salt Lake City? Vincent, who is it?
Which got for me? Hey? I got Karl Doug with
everybody with kung fu fighting? Oh, kung fu alright, we're
gonna take a nominees. We might have to kung fu
fighting all right? Uh, that is the Asian national anthem suggestion.
I only want Asian callers. By the way, we don't
know necessarily that you're Asian. But dub is uh, dub
(33:28):
is determined you. We said this, right, you said, only
Asian callers. Who's next? Dub? We got Kevin in l A.
Kevin in l A, who would you vote for? I mean,
this is an obvious one. It has to be done
Gingham style. Yeah, that's been tweeted in a lot all
right is that? Okay? That is? Do we have all this?
(33:49):
By the way, we need to put together a perfect
medley for tomorrow's show to unite all of America in
the NFL. Maybe we can send this to Roger Goodell
and be like, hey, I know the anthem has gotten
contract virtual. We have come up with the perfect playlist
to unite all of the American races before the game
is played. Who's next? Dub? Alright, we got our last
Asian caller here, Leon in Virginia. Leon, that's his American name. Okay,
(34:15):
I was gonna say Leon does not? Yeah, Leon, who
what you got for me? Uh? They call me Tiger
and China. But you tell me Leon whatever you picking?
Ganham style? Easy Yam style? All right, So thank thank
you for the call, Leon. So what do you think
do we do we have Gongham style on the uh?
On the playlist? Here? Should we play that? Yeah? We'll
(34:38):
get that ready right now for you. All right, So
here is what we have as my ploy to unite
the world and to unite America in perfect racial harmony
before the games are played. To make sure that everybody
is standing. The nominees here, Sweet Caroline, We've got war
(35:00):
low Rider as the sorry the white national anthem, Sweet Caroline,
I drafted that on behalf of white people. Uh. Then
we had Roberto draft war Lowrider on behalf of Hispanic people.
We didn't have an official draft. Maybe we need to
do this tomorrow. Let black people actually draft a black
national anthem other than lift every voice and seeing my
(35:21):
nominee apple bottom jeans. All right, maybe a little bit controversial,
Apple bottom jeans. I think those three combined, and then
we are add as the Asian national anthem. There we go,
There we go. I'm just selling you. Yeah, if we
(35:43):
add all of these together, if can we Now you
are the DJ Danny g as we finished the show,
can we add four of these together? No? Well, because
you're see you're not a DJ, we would need to
reque everything up all right, in order to Can you
promise to America that tomorrow we will begin the show
(36:07):
by uniting white, Hispanic, Black, and Asian people together. We
will start playing the OutKick National Anthem, which will be
a mix of all four of these songs? Can we
do that? I will do that, but I'd rather play
al Green than apple bottom jeans. Apple bottom jeans is
the choice if there's an uproar. If there's an uproar,
we will reconsider. But for tomorrow morning, we're gonna unite
(36:29):
the races. We're gonna play the OutKick national anthem. This
is Outkicked, by the way, on Fox Sports Radio, this
is OutKick the Coverage with Clay Travis
I'll kick the Coverage with Clay Travis Live every weekday
morning from six to nine a m. E Stern three
to six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio. Find your
local station for OutKick the coverage at Fox Sports Radio
dot com or stream us live every morning on the
I Heart Radio app by searching fs are you're listening
(00:23):
to Fox Sports Radio. We got a lot to get
into the Clippers tank. Give up a three one series
lead the Denver no Nemver, Nooggets. That would be an
interesting uh, a lot less of an interesting team name.
I would say, the Denver Nuggets have managed to advance
and uh, let's listen to what it sounded like at
(00:44):
the end of the Clippers game and at the end
of the Nuggets game. According to their radio networks, the
Denver Nuggets time enfranchise history in the Western Conference Finals.
One O four to eighty nine is the final this nation.
Let's go the shot clock turned off. P J Dozer
has it in and he will bring it across the
(01:06):
timeline and dribble out the clock. The Clippers go up
three one on the Denver Nuggets and dropped the final
three games of this best of seven series. Best result
obviously the Denver Nuggets get the win. Worst result in order.
Number one, the NBA. They were gonna have l A
(01:26):
versus l A Kauai against Lebron, Paul George against Anthony Davis,
the battle for the NBA title coming out of the
city of Los Angeles. Instead, the Clippers do what the
Clippers do. They lost their eighth straight game that would
have allowed them to advance to the conference finals. They
gave up a three one series lead, and as a result,
the NBA is in trouble. Also, Doc Rivers looking bad
(01:48):
here and maybe number two on this list looking bad.
Paul George. That shot off the backboard is gonna be
hard to live down in a do or die game.
He did not he died, He did not do Uh. Also,
we had the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.
I know a lot of you are like, wait a minute,
the NBA is going on. I've been paying attention to
the NFL. I've been paying attention to college football, have
(02:09):
been following all this ridiculousness surrounding the Big Ten. No,
it's going on. Uh and uh. Block of the decade
perhaps made by Bam down the stretch. Jayson Tatum went
in and overtime, tried to seal the deal by bringing
home the thunder instead. This is what it sounded like,
Tatums trying to get space Tatum all the way in.
Tatum's block left the rim by Bam wrt A block
(02:30):
by Bam at a bio has Tate went in to
slam it down and Bam said, not a chance here
in Orlando, Miami heat. Now I believe I'm doing the
math here correctly. You know, live math on this show
is always a challenge. I think they're nine and one
in the in the postseason. I mean they've only played
ten games total. They have won nine of them. The
(02:50):
only game they lost, I believe game four against the Bucks,
if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, yeah, So they're nine and one.
The city of Los Angeles, the Laker fans exalting, uh,
and that will be what did I say? When is
Game one of the Western Conference Finals tomorrow? Friday? Friday? Okay,
Game one of the Western Conference Finals on Friday? And
(03:11):
that is where we are in the n B A uh.
If you're just waking up with us what I've been
talking about on the program something by the way, we're
gonna go be joined by Chris Mannox, who is our
NBA expert in the next segment, who will be breaking
all that down, a couple of other stories that are
worth paying attention to as the Big Ten turns. I'm
told that again, as I told you guys on Saturday,
(03:32):
October seventeenth, is looking like the start date for the
Big Ten. Although they need to go ahead and get
that officially announced, it has not yet ended up happening,
so we will see what the progression is there from
for purposes of uh the Big Ten being able to start. Now,
Pact twelve players are starting to rise up after basically
(03:55):
six weeks of silence when their season was canceled. A
lot of different Pack twelve players now stepping up and
saying they want to play. They're seeing their Big Ten
brethren be allowed to play, recognizing that they're the only
Power five conference that isn't gonna be playing, and they
are now starting to advocate calling out governors in their
states for not allowing them to play. Whether it's California,
(04:17):
whether it's Oregon, whether it's Washington. All of these different
activities under way as the schools in the Pact twelve
now decide to step up and argue that they deserve
to be involved in the UH in the overall process.
All right, so we have got a lot going on.
I'm gonna mention it off the top here as well.
(04:38):
We now have added more talent out there in general UH.
If you are familiar, we got a fun addition to OutKick.
We added a couple of new talent. Greg Couch, who
is doing work has been really successful media member out
of the Chicago area for a long time. He has
now joined OutKick. And we have also added Jason King,
(05:00):
who has done a good job covering things for years
and years as well. Two more big additions and now
another edition, Club Pro Guy at club pro Guy on Twitter,
UH is a really fun follow if you like golf.
Just in time for the US Open, we have added
UH club Pro Guy and I think you guys are
(05:22):
gonna enjoy his content if you are a fan of
golf at all. Just in time for the US Open.
They they that crew is officially joining out kick as well,
just to take us even further into the stratosphere as
a media company. But as a media company, we are
doing well. Our audience is continuing to grow. Thank you
(05:44):
to all. Thanks to all of you, for making that happen.
Who's not growing as the NFL. And we talked a
lot about this in the program already, but I'm reading
directly from the from the OutKick site when it comes
to the official numbers, and the data reflects that many
people are tuning out on the NFL, particularly in the
(06:06):
primetime games. And let me run through here. Monday Night Football,
the first part of the doubleheader, down nearly eight percent.
By the way, I want to give props. How good
were Kirk curb Street and Chris Fowler calling that game?
I mean, they were absolutely fantastic. They were better than
most NFL announced teams and they hadn't even called a
(06:26):
game together before. Monday Night Football game two down twenty
eight percent, NBC Sunday Night Football down percent uh and
CBS early games down nearly twelve percent. The kickoff game
on NBC down nearly set a little bit over seven percent.
The only people who were up were Fox, and Fox
(06:49):
was up to a large extent because they had the
best game of the week, Drew Brees against Tom Brady,
the Saints going up against the Buccaneers. Why are these
numbers collapsing particularly but us there are one point two
million people who theoretically would have been sitting in the
stands watching in person that are now sitting at home.
And also because out of home viewing is now being
(07:10):
counted in these numbers. I think it's because the NFL
has gone woke. We have had open phone lines for
a while. We are allowing you guys to weigh in.
Tell us did you watch? If not? Why did you
not watch? Eight? Seven, seven, six, three six nine Again.
Chris mannix R NBA Insider will be with us next,
but we're taking your calls. Who's up next? Up? We
(07:31):
got Blake in Denver, Blake, what you got for me? Eight?
Did you watch? If not? Why I watched the first game?
It was too late for the second game, and I'm
fining to that. Yeah, And I just want to know
is that tiger toss? That's thanks for the call. Uh.
By the way, that was a late game. I think
(07:53):
a lot of us are still recovering. Who stayed up
that gave it an until after one thirty Eastern the
Titans game against the Denver Broncos. He's line to Nashville.
The tiger was not in Nashville. It was in Knoxville.
Danny g do we have an update on what happened
with the tiger? The last thing I think you told
us was somebody said they might have gotten confused and
it might have been what like a mountain lion instead
(08:13):
of a tiger. Bobcat, Yeah, bobcat, mountain lion, like all
those things are kind of the same word basically. But okay,
so do we get any update or is there still
potentially a tiger loose? It was in Knoxville, not Nashville, right,
and I have not seen any new news on that alright,
So we just have to wait and see whether the
tiger is gonna kill someone or not, or whether it
(08:34):
was just somebody who had gotten drunk in Tennessee and
thought they saw something they didn't. By the way, as
someone who has often gotten drunk in Tennessee and seen
things that he thought he didn't, I am not going
to take any shots there, particularly because people haven't even
had to start drinking heavily, because the University of Tennessee
football season hasn't even begun yet. Who's up next in
North Carolina? Bob? Yeah, Hey, what's up? I love the show,
(09:02):
appreciate and I did try and watch a little bit
this weekend um and it's not the social justice stuff
doesn't really bother any so much because I could just
I can tune in, you know, after kickoff and watch
a little bit. But I was trying to watch the
Monday night games and I had to turn it off
because it's the Corona thing that really bothers me. I
(09:24):
can't stand watching all of the just virtue signaling math
wearing on the sideline and everybody's on the sidelines touching
their maths, pulling their masks down, pulling them up. And
then at the end of the Pittsburgh Giants game, they've
worn their maths and social distance sort of on the
sideline the whole game, and then they all come to
the middle of the field. They're shaking hands, they're hugging.
(09:46):
There's no math, thank you for that the whole It's
it's cosmetic theater, right And I've talked about this. If
you go out to a dinner in a in a restaurant,
like I'm going out to dinner tonight, I will have
to put on my mask to say like, hey, you know, Travis,
party of whatever, and they'll be like, okay, follow me,
(10:08):
and they'll take me to the table and as soon
as I sit down, I will take my mask off.
Who am I protecting in the forty five seconds that
I wear a mask into the restaurant and sit down
at my table and then immediately take it off. That's ludicrous, right,
same thing. I went to movies. I've been to three
movie going to movie theater three different times the last month.
(10:30):
In order to walk into the movie theater, I have
to have a mask on. As soon as I buy
popcorn and a drink, I can take my mask off,
and I can leave it off for the entire movie. Again,
of the time that I am physically present inside of
that structure, I don't have to have a mask on.
It feels like I'm dressing up to be able to
(10:52):
get seated. I don't know what the situation is in
California for you guys, but I definitely noticed that when
it's on television, like all of these guys have masks
on the sideline, and they're like, we need to socially
distance then personally play a game where they tackle each
other throughout the entire game, and then at the end
of the game they all meet and they shake hands
and they don't have masks on, but for some reason,
(11:14):
the coaches need to have masks on on the sideline.
It doesn't make sense. And oh, by the way, I
feel the same way about the NBA bubble, Like you're
in the bubble. You don't need to have masks. Masks
on in the bubble, you're getting tested every single day.
Like it's all cosmetic theater, it seems like to me.
(11:36):
And so I'm all, look, I'm not the guy who's
gonna be like I'm gonna throw a fit over I
have to have a mask to go into a store,
Like I was in Target yesterday going out buying things
with my kids for for their birthday. I was with
my parents there, um and uh, and we went to
the mall and all that stuff. And I'm not gonna
be the guy who's like, I'm gonna fight over whether
or not i have to have a mask on. Like
(11:56):
if I go into Costco and they require me to
put a mask on, I'll put a mask on right,
same thing, like I wear shoes and I wear a shirt.
I don't think it's that big of a deal. But
the restaurant thing, to me is just totally ridiculous. Like
a couple of different times, same thing with the movies.
I have forgotten my mask, turned around, had to walk
back to my car, got in the mask, walked in,
(12:20):
put it on for thirty seconds. Said hey, yeah, Clay Travis.
Here we got a dinner reservation. They're like, okay, thank you,
Mr Travis. They walked me to my table. I immediately
take my mask off. What is the point of having
a mask in a restaurant if you only wear it
for thirty seconds? It doesn't make any sense to me.
Who's up next? We got Harold in North Hollywood. Harold
in North Hollywood. What you got for my man? Look, Travis,
(12:43):
I show. Yeah, this is your show. That's right, my show.
When you when you turn into politics, that bothers me.
I resented because I get up in the morning. It's
scurely here in the great state of California. When you
hit the Trump sunner that that reading. Boy, So you
think I should say no? Hold on, Harold? You think
the President of the United States wants to come on
(13:04):
the show? You think I should tell him? No? Yes,
you do. Why don't you get know you turned into politics? No? No,
but I've been had Harold. I just want to I
just want to confirm one more time. If the president
of the United States, let's say Joe Biden wins. If
Joe Biden calls up out Kick and he says, hey,
I want to come on the radio show, you think
I should turn down Joe Biden question. No, I'm asking
(13:26):
you a question. You said that you were offended that
I had the President of the United States on the show.
I'm just asking you if the political party were different,
if Barack Obama had wanted to come on my radio show,
and we started this radio show and we were just
getting going, and Barack Obama and the White House had
reached out and they said, hey, the President would like
to come on your show. You think I should have
said no to Obama? You know what, you're showing your
(13:48):
true colors by putting the President of the United States
on the show. You've down't played this from the beginning
of virus. We have lost over two hundred almost two
hundred thousand people. And you a restaurant. Do you know
how many people pay? Harold? Do you know how many
people die every year in the United States? I don't
want to hear that. You know how many? Well that's
kind of significant, right, two point eight million people die
(14:11):
every year in the United States. Every single day, Harold,
people die and that's unfortunate. But you know what, we
could have avoided all these deaths. To Travis, look at
the facts, look at the science. What what facts and
science do you have for me? Haven't you been listening
to news? It? Would you just hold on? Harold? I
(14:33):
want to I want to point something out. You called
into my show to complain about politics and immediately wanted
to talk about the coronavirus and the fact that I
had the President of the United States on the show.
You didn't call it to talk about sports at all.
You said you resented the show. You said you were
upset that I had the president on, and you immediately
said that the coronavirus like way too many people had died.
(14:53):
You didn't talk about anything sports. Don't I'll talk about sports,
talk about sport. Well, I mean you called me, Harold, Yeah,
don't turn it around. I'm not turning anything around. You
called me and immediately said we shouldn't have the president on.
You're being untruthful. How am I being untruth You can know? No?
(15:16):
What what did you have Joe Biden on to see
what he could say? Well, first of all, Joe Biden
has an invitation, but you just told me I shouldn't
have him on. You were upset that I had the
president on? Do you have Junior on? For Junior Adam One?
Because I thought he was an interesting guest. By the way,
what's interesting is, Harold, you seem upset about the show,
(15:38):
but you know an awful lot about the show. You
guess when he goes on there and continues to lie
and you you kisses both of their behinds, You're that's disgusting.
You're disgusted by the show. I'm disgusting by what you
You turn the show into politics. I'm passionate about this
and I'm really upset, and you can on every day
(16:00):
you're talking about, oh, we got to go listen football.
We don't think you don't. You have not taken this
steak seriously since the beginning. I want I want everybody
to go to work. I want everybody to go to school.
I want everybody to play sports. I'm consistent about that.
You live your life, you where you want to. But
if you lost a loved one from the virus, you
(16:22):
wouldn't be talking like this. I disagree. I think that
people are look again, thanks for Harold. You haven't said anything.
Do you have any actual point that you want to make? Okay,
thank you. You have a nice state to Harold. Uh,
Harold's upset that we had the president of United States
on Harold's upset that I want people to go back
to work and back to school and play sports. And
(16:45):
Harold was upset that we talked too much politics on
the show, but he only called in to give me
a political opinion. Well, here's pretty straightforward. We are always
going to have on this program the President of the
United States on this program. Whenever we can have the
President in the United States on this program. That's whether
it is Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, George Bush,
(17:07):
Joe Biden, whoever the president is. You can disagree with
me on a lot if the president, if the White
House reaches out and says the President would like to
do your show, the answer is always gonna be okay, period.
And if that upset you, you can go listen to
a much less successful radio show somewhere else in the country.
(17:29):
But I think the vast majority of Americans, regardless of
what their background is, are going to say, you know what,
President probably makes sense for Clay Travis to have the
President of the United States, and w said, Harold always
calls into complain. Yeah, Harold calls. He's a frequent caller.
(17:49):
And uh, every time I asked, you know, what's your name?
Where are you calling from, it's an oh no, no,
I don't want to get on the air. I'm I'm
trying to sleep. I'm trying to sleep every time. I mean,
height is once a week. I'd say, what's interesting is
Harold listens to a lot of the show to have
all these different complaints. Like what I learned early on
in radio was some people get worried about complaints. Right,
(18:12):
I'm not the guy who cares about complaints. I just
genuinely don't care. But what is amazing to me is
the people who complain always cite like things that have
been going on for months. They're like, well, six weeks
ago you said X, and then two weeks ago you
said why, and then four days ago you said Z.
(18:33):
And I'm like, if you really hate this show, what
kind of sado masochists are you to listen every single
day for the entire time. And the truth is, I'm
not one of these people, but some people have a
hater gene and they get titillated by being angry, and
so they listen to the show. It doesn't really matter
to me whether you listen to the show because you
(18:54):
think I'm the greatest human being of all time. You're right,
by the way, if that's why you listen, or if
you think I'm the worst human being of all time,
it doesn't really matter to me. I was having this
conversation with my wife last night. She was like, what
percentage of the American sports audience in sports do you
think like you? And I was like thirty. She was like,
(19:15):
you think sixty percent of people don't like you? And
I was like, yeah, I think i'd be a thirty
five percent approval rating. She was like, that doesn't bother you,
and I said, no, thirty five percent is pretty good.
I said. In my business, it isn't a problem if
people like you or don't like you. It's a problem
if people don't care. Right, Like, the thirty five percent
(19:35):
who loved me, they would take a bullet for me.
They're out there fighting in the streets every day for
out kick the sixty percent who don't like me. I
don't really care about him, and that might not even
be accurate. It might be fifty fifty, it might be
pent like me and don't like me. I don't know
what the percentages are. I said, I feel like thirty
(19:56):
like me is pretty good. Fiver decided to run elective office.
I could get to fifty. Put a couple of television
ads up, boom, I'm at fifty one, dub of anybody
else waiting. I want to try to get people in
before we go to mann x IF. So yeah, let's
go quick. We got Charlie and Dayton, Charlie and Daton.
What you got for me? What's going on? Play? Uh?
I watched as much football as I could from Thursday
(20:20):
on up to Monday. But I was confused on Thursday
because A Leicia Keys played like five songs and I
didn't know which one was the actual Black national anthem.
And I think it's starting to get to the point
like it is a one upsmanship thing where each league
has to do a thing and then the other league
has to react, because I think to the point where
(20:42):
like I didn't even know a black national anthem existed.
I didn't either, and I would imagine, I would imagine
most black people don't know they're like, what the hell
are you talking about? Is there? I mean, the thing
I wonder thanks for? Is there an Asian national anthem?
And is there a Hispanic national anthem? And why are
we excluding Hispanic and Asian people from playing their national
(21:04):
anthem too? And is there a white national anthem? Because
I think of the national anthem, you know, like the
national anthem, the point of it is it unites everybody,
like the same reason you have a flag, Like everybody
is united under the symbol of the flag. I think
of the national anthem as uniting everybody. The idea that
each race should have a national anthem, I don't know.
(21:26):
I don't know what white people would pick as our
national anthem, Actually I do. I think we would pick, uh,
what's the song that they play, uh that they always
play at the Red Sox game. Oh, you know, I
think Sweet Caroline would be the white national anthem. Like
I think if white people had to vote on what's like,
you've never seen a white person not sing along to
(21:47):
Sweet Caroline. I really that's why the Red Sox like
the whitest fan base on the planet. I really think
that if the if there was a white national anthem,
it would be Sweet Caroline, And he just said he
would kneel during Sweet Carol. What Eddie? What would uh Eddie?
And uh what would the Hispanic national anthem be? Roberto,
do you have a suggestion? Um, I can't think of
(22:08):
something right now on top of my hand. Kid frosts.
Oh yeah, Kid frost Laurassa. I mean, I don't have
any idea of with the Hispanic national anthem b in
the United States, I feel like Sweet Caroline would be
the white national anthem, lift every voice and seeing as
the black national anthem, although I think a lot of
people would rather have jay Z brush your shoulders off,
like like if you could actually vote, this is the
(22:31):
Hispanic national anthem? Oh? Yeah, you know what, This is
a great song. This is a good this on behalf
of Hispanic people. I think there are a lot of
Hispanic people like I like this. Yeah, this is a solid,
solid selection. What what about should we were like Italian's
Old Blue Eyes. Well, it's a good question. I mean,
(22:52):
should we open up phone lines only for Asian people
for the final segment and let them draft an Asian
national anthem? Yeah, Caroline gonna be controversial for white people.
I think it's a pretty good pick. And I think
that's a great pick that you just pulled for for
Hispanic people there, it's a great call. I I just
I don't know what the Asian national anthem would be
should we have we ever had Asian only callers. That's
(23:14):
what we're gonna do for the final segment of the show,
only Asian people, they get to select the national anthem
for Asian people living in the United States. Be sure
to catch live editions about Kicked the coverage with Clay
Travis weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific. Chris mannocks,
we may have to talk to tomorrow. One of the
things you learn about morning radio is lots of people
sleep through morning radio interviews. But a couple of things
(23:36):
that I wanted to hit here, uh and uh and
I think this is interesting the the sort of idea
in general of herd immunity has been continued to give
more and more credence in the world of athletics. Do
you say, guys, See, Coacho came out and said he
thinks basically his entire team, most of the team, I think,
he said, has already had the coronavirus. Well, the corona
(23:58):
bros and sports media have been, you know, just in
an uproar ever since the Big Ten basically decided to
come back. Now the Pact twelve wants to come back,
and they're realizing that sports can be played safely because
Major League Baseball has been going a long time now
without any severe issues. In the NFL, there's almost no
positive tests at all. Uh, the SEC comes back next week,
(24:19):
the tennis is going on. The US Open golf tournament
starts this weekend. Like, whatever your perspectives are, we've had
a lot of people out there that have been able
to come back and play well. An Alabama student has
been uh. He said, he decided to prank all of
the Corona Ros in sports media, and so he sent
an email big story tip to Dan Woken at USA Today,
(24:43):
who is one of the king Corona Rose and he said, here,
I'm reading his email. I just tweeted this out, Dan
student at Alabama here, after reading your article about her immunity,
I have something you might want to look into. I
have a friend on the football team who told me
that a bunch of Alabama play has had a COVID
house party so they could get the virus and develop
(25:04):
her immunity earlier in the summer. You are welcome. A
few minutes later, Dan Wilkin writes back, High, I wouldn't
be surprised if that were true. Any details you know
about that that I could try to track down. Uh,
So there you go. Uh, players are actually uh now
pranking everybody out there. Uh in the world of not sorry,
(25:28):
students are pranking Corona bros. Out there. That's pretty entertaining.
What do you think do you think? Now here's the question,
So that's entertaining in and of itself. As we go
and get ready for the final segment, how many Asian
people do you think we'll call in to draft the
Asian National Anthem? We've never asked for Asian only callers.
(25:48):
Do you think we are popular in the Asian community?
Danny g oh, yeah. Do you think we have a
lot of Asian listeners that are gonna load up the
phone lines for w answer phones all day? What do
you do you think we'll have loaded lines from the
Asian community to draft the Asian National Anthem? I mean,
I'm expecting at least a half dozen calls here coming
up during this commercial break. All right, Uh, what would
(26:10):
you say as a white man, Dub about my drafting
of Sweet Caroline on on behalf of white America as
the white national anthem. I think that would be a
popular selection selection would you suggest to otherwise? I think
maybe for the younger millennial generation, I think something by
Blink one eighty two would be more sufficient. Maybe I
miss you by Blink wantity two because whenever that song
(26:31):
comes on in the bars, let me tell you what,
all the white kids are belting it out. As a
twenty five year old, you're telling me, blink, do we
have that song? Danny g on the on the playlist there,
we'll look for it right now. And by the one,
by the way, tweeted in and said, Clay, the white
national anthem is Cowboy from kid Rock. Yeah. You know
we did this a while back where we were like, um,
(26:54):
we took calls on is this the blink win? This is?
This is we turn it up. Every white person is
starting to sway. All of white America right now is
just like turning up their radios. You're telling me, Dub,
this is you're telling me this is given Sweet Carolina
run just give it a few seconds here now, hello there,
(27:17):
This is a long intro I think by the way,
ratings through the roof right now, oh oh, it got
me right in the heart time. I gotta be honest
with you, though I did, I do have children. I
gotta tell you this is a great song. It's kind
of sad though, Like right, Sweet Caroline is like an
uplifting ballad. This is, like you know, like, this is
(27:40):
not a very positive song. Right, did you agree to
for for the white national anthem? I feel like it
needs to be uplifting. Well, it's about to get uplifted.
All right, here we go. This is this is where
the white this is where white people get their wings.
Let's bring it home. This is not the white national anthem.
I'm sorry, dub you on behalf of all your millennial
(28:02):
loser friends need to apologize for trying to make this.
This is a good song. This is not the white
national anthem. It is Sweet Caroline Hammered? Are you at
the bar when the song comes out? Super hammered? All right?
Can we play the Hispanic National Anthem for people who
are just waking? Roberto has drafted the Hispanic National Anthem.
By the way, Eddie, do you agree with roberto selection
here or would you prefer a different Hispanic national anthem.
(28:25):
I'm actually uh in complete agreement with Roberto on this one. Yeah,
this is this is part of my segment on this up.
This is a positive but crank this up. This is
a positive song like this is. I can see this
being connected to Sweet Caroline, and I don't know how
this doesn't make you smile. I mean, like this is
that this is the I love this selection as a
(28:46):
Hispanic national anthem. Now I will say this, let every
voice and sing. I think black people would prefer apple
bottom jeans. I'm just gonna say the flow ride a song?
What is that song called? I'm just saying, like, do
we have do we have the apple bottom jeene song?
I'm just saying if I had, Like, if you're thinking
uplifting songs that everybody loves, what's the what's the name
(29:09):
of that flow right of apple bottom gene song? There's
not a single person on the planet that if this
do we do we have that? If we're trying to
unite all of the races, all right, I really feel
like Sweet Caroline. White people love to do like the
dunt dunt uh, like you know, like using their hands
like they're playing the drums or the symbols or whatever
(29:29):
the heck it is. And then that Hispanic national anthem.
Everybody likes to dance to that. I'm really telling you,
instead of lift every voice and singing, if they played
apple bottom Jeans the flow right a song, I think
it would unite America more. I'm just saying, if we
have to play a bunch of different songs before the
national anthem on behalf of all the different races, do
(29:52):
we have it? Do we not have it in the system.
This is a sign of white supremacy. If we don't
have the apple bottom jeans and the and the song,
do we have it? Here? We go clays about two
Uh's got a couple of coronas in this system right now,
I'm telling you if they played this before the game
(30:12):
and everybody just lined up on the field, I'm telling you,
if they started with Sweet Caroline, Like if we had
you DJ Danny g as a mixtape master here and
we were like to unite America the white national and
we need to put a mix together the white national
anthem Sweet Caroline comes on. No, this one right here
could actually be the white national anthem. No, I'm telling
(30:33):
you right now, if they played this, nobody would kneel
the everybody and nobody would ever kneel for apple bottom
jeans would be kind of hard to standard attention though too,
be kind of bopping around a little bit. Yeah, I
mean you gotta have a little bit of sway. That's okay,
that unites, That unites the whole stadium. All right. So
what is the Asian national anthem? I don't know. Only
(30:55):
Asian callers get to pick their national anthem right now
eight seven seven nine six six three six nine. First
ever Asian only request, and I have no idea. Dubbed
the phones better start ringing. Asian people get to pick
their national anthem to play before the start of NFL games.
(31:15):
What will it be? I'm intrigued, you're intrigued. This is
out Kick on Fox Sports Radio. And before we find
out what that anthem is going to be, Farmers has
a word for us. You get a whole lot of
something with Farmers policy perks so much I'm gonna have
to speed things up. You can get new car replacements,
so if your car is total, Farmers will pay to
replacement with a new one of the same, making up
like were uniting with an old friend, but you got
(31:35):
a benefit of that new car smell. So it's really
new car and new car smell replacement. Get a whole
lot of something with farmers policy perks start with a
quote by calling one eight hundred farmers. We are farmers.
Not for the legal something that covers not available in
every scene, only available with like pharmos ratic policy terms
and condition underwritten. The farmerstcrip and farre insure exchanges are failing.
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
(31:57):
the nation. Catch all of our shows, said Fox Sports
Radio dot com and within the I Heart Radio app
search f s R to listen live. That is all
of the national anthems coming back rolling out. Do we
have a do we have anything out there? In terms
of calls, dub What is going on right now there? Well,
(32:21):
the phone, first of all, was ringing off the hook.
We got four Asian callers on hold at the moment,
but there was you know, all different parties calling and
making their own suggestions. But this is an exclusively Asian
call list, all right, Asian callers only. And by the way,
good news coming in the Big ten shortly. By the way,
you never know what you're gonna get on the show.
Good news about the return of Big ten Big ten football.
(32:45):
By the way, my dad also just texted me and said,
as a senior citizen, Jeremiah was a bull frog, would
be his voice? Vote for the senior citizen national anthem,
which I don't even know if we have that in play.
Jeremiah was a bull frog? Senior is a national anthem?
All right, Asian national anthem. We have callers? Who is it? All?
(33:05):
We got Vincent in Salt Lake City? Vincent, who is it?
Which got for me? Hey? I got Karl Doug with
everybody with kung fu fighting? Oh, kung fu alright, we're
gonna take a nominees. We might have to kung fu
fighting all right? Uh, that is the Asian national anthem suggestion.
I only want Asian callers. By the way, we don't
know necessarily that you're Asian. But dub is uh, dub
(33:28):
is determined you. We said this, right, you said, only
Asian callers. Who's next? Dub? We got Kevin in l A.
Kevin in l A, who would you vote for? I mean,
this is an obvious one. It has to be done
Gingham style. Yeah, that's been tweeted in a lot all
right is that? Okay? That is? Do we have all this?
(33:49):
By the way, we need to put together a perfect
medley for tomorrow's show to unite all of America in
the NFL. Maybe we can send this to Roger Goodell
and be like, hey, I know the anthem has gotten
contract virtual. We have come up with the perfect playlist
to unite all of the American races before the game
is played. Who's next? Dub? Alright, we got our last
Asian caller here, Leon in Virginia. Leon, that's his American name. Okay,
(34:15):
I was gonna say Leon does not? Yeah, Leon, who
what you got for me? Uh? They call me Tiger
and China. But you tell me Leon whatever you picking?
Ganham style? Easy Yam style? All right, So thank thank
you for the call, Leon. So what do you think
do we do we have Gongham style on the uh?
On the playlist? Here? Should we play that? Yeah? We'll
(34:38):
get that ready right now for you. All right, So
here is what we have as my ploy to unite
the world and to unite America in perfect racial harmony
before the games are played. To make sure that everybody
is standing. The nominees here, Sweet Caroline, We've got war
(35:00):
low Rider as the sorry the white national anthem, Sweet Caroline,
I drafted that on behalf of white people. Uh. Then
we had Roberto draft war Lowrider on behalf of Hispanic people.
We didn't have an official draft. Maybe we need to
do this tomorrow. Let black people actually draft a black
national anthem other than lift every voice and seeing my
(35:21):
nominee apple bottom jeans. All right, maybe a little bit controversial,
Apple bottom jeans. I think those three combined, and then
we are add as the Asian national anthem. There we go,
There we go. I'm just selling you. Yeah, if we
(35:43):
add all of these together, if can we Now you
are the DJ Danny g as we finished the show,
can we add four of these together? No? Well, because
you're see you're not a DJ, we would need to
reque everything up all right, in order to Can you
promise to America that tomorrow we will begin the show
(36:07):
by uniting white, Hispanic, Black, and Asian people together. We
will start playing the OutKick National Anthem, which will be
a mix of all four of these songs? Can we
do that? I will do that, but I'd rather play
al Green than apple bottom jeans. Apple bottom jeans is
the choice if there's an uproar. If there's an uproar,
we will reconsider. But for tomorrow morning, we're gonna unite
(36:29):
the races. We're gonna play the OutKick national anthem. This
is Outkicked, by the way, on Fox Sports Radio, this
is OutKick the Coverage with Clay Travis
