Dan discusses the upcoming free agency of Juan Soto and says he's not a must-see like Ohtani or Judge. Victor Wembanyama can shoot the 3-point shot and that's made him all the more terrifying to play against.

Thursday night was kind of a dumping ground. It felt like, oh,
(00:49):
who's playing Thursday Night? It's not a good matchup. Thursday
Night's had a pretty good resume here. Now you got
the Commanders and the Eagles coming up tonight. The Commanders
are getting three and a half. Over under for entertainment
purposes is forty eight and a half. We'll have a
play of the day poll question stat of the Day
all of that coming up. Had a big night in basketball.
(01:10):
Jiannis drops fifty nine. Lebron another triple double, so he's
had three consecutive triple doubles. He's going to be in
the record books for the youngest to do something and
the oldest to do something. More importantly, the Lakers did
win Victor Wembenyama his first fifty point game. He only
needed twenty six minutes to do so. In My Cavaliers
(01:32):
are thirteen and oh the Colts are turning back to
Anthony Richardson. I'll tell you why they are. That'll be
coming up all right. Stat of the Day brought to
you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the program.

(02:14):
as well. Twenty twenty five calendars available on Danpatrick dot com. Satan,
what's the poll question for the first hour. That's the year.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Twenty twenty five, not twenty to twenty five calendars available.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Correct, twenty twenty five is the calendar year. Yes, yes, yes,
there are more than twenty to twenty five calendars available, yes, yes, yes, Right.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Do you want Paul's pole question or the multitude of
thods Todds?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Yeah, let me start with PAULI because he seemed like
he was in a good mood today. Yes, maybe that
will be reflected in his pole question. Yes, yes, Paul.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Before the poll, I was just looking at the lebron
James he turns forty on Decemmer thirtieth. Okay, like you
were just saying, like he's going to have he's going
to create all the forty records the next six months,
like they're gonna be his and his forever. And then
the other guy who's really relevant, Cooper Flag. He turns
eighteen eighteen on December nineteenth.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah, all right, he'll be in the NBA next year
as an eighteen year old.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
December twenty first, two thousand and six is when Cooper
Flag was born two thousand and six. On that night,
Lebron was in his like third year, fourth year in
the league, and had twenty six points that night.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Yeah, Lebron will face him. Lebron will be forty, Cooper
Flag will be eighteen, and Bronni will probably still be
in the G League only playing home games.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Yes, Seaton, Yeah, we're about to hit an era E
two where, uh, let's see if Cooper Flag was born
in two thousand and six. Right, we started doing the
show in your attic in two thousand and seven, so
we're going to we're reaching an era where modern professional
athletes entire lifespan has been lived during this version of
(03:59):
The dam Patrick Show.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
All Right, I feel old.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yeah, same.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
What are some of Todd's whole questions? Oh well, no,
we didn't get to PAULI show.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Oh yeah, that's right, Paul the most sure thing future,
the future you would bet most on. All right, Victor
Wembanyama at a Monster Knight, Jayden Daniels, Okay, he's doing well.
We have room for two others. Travis Hunter could be
on there. That's a bit of a risky one. Sure
(04:35):
Door Sanders Okay, if he wanted to put.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Nepotism any other youngsters that you want to put in there?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
That is the question, isn't it. Yeah, it feels like
we need a baseball youngster, but they don't really exist.
Kidding One Soto. Yeah, I'll tell you what. I'll bet
on his bank account's future. That's for damn sure.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I don't want him. I don't want him.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
What.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
No, I don't want your Anti Soto. I am Anti Soto. No, No,
not interested. It's it's so much money over so many years.
I just I have no interest in that.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
None.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
You know, I got Otani. Otani's special. He's unique. There's
no one like him. One Soto, the talented player bounced
around a couple of teams, already gonna be bouncing around again.
And you're gonna pay him six hundred million dollars. If
I'm paying that kind of money, I want you to
be a gate attraction. I want you to be a
(05:41):
box office star. One Soto is not a box office star.
He's just a really good baseball player. I mean, Mike Trout,
as great as he is, not a box office star.
You just go that guy knows how to play, all right?
Like if I'm spending that kind of money. You got
to be great.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
So five years ago you were cool with Bryce Harper
because he puts.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
People on the stee Yes, he is a box he's
he would be a box office kind of ballplayer. Absolutely,
you would show up. People show up to see him.
Aaron Judge, they show up to see him. Otani, they
show up to see him. But I don't know if
there's anybody else in that category. And I'm not spending
six hundred million dollars on him. Like what market am
(06:27):
I tapping into? I got Japan with Otani and we
saw that in the ratings, like they're watching fifteen million
people a night when they were in the playoffs. But
Juan Soto, he's an average fielder. He's a wonderful hitter,
but what does he have? Like are you saying many
(06:49):
whoses with charisma or whatever it might be. No, I
don't want one sodo talented player, but that kind of
money I got to get a little bit more.
Speaker 6 (06:59):
Yes, Marvin, what about a discount of only three hundred
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's not gonna happen because Scott Morris is his agent.
Speaker 6 (07:05):
Oh, I'd say it was gonna happen. But if it
was three hundredllion dollars, would you take.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Him over how many years?
Speaker 5 (07:11):
Ten?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Well, of course I would. That's thirty million a year,
So what's sixty? Come on, what's another thirty? Don't hire
the carbonizer agent. Thirty million. Yeah, that's the difference between
thirty million and sixty.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Wan Soto just turned twenty six years old. For all
Star games in a row.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Yeah, I don't. I don't care. I don't want that,
not for that kind of money. I gotta get something
off the field as well. Yes, Mark, but.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
There's only three guys that are really box office in
Major League Baseball anyway. So you're gonna have to overpay
for him. You're gonna have to overpay for all these
guys except for Judge. Yeah, but Judge is worth that.
Otani's worth that, Like they give me more. Judges must
see TV, O tanis must see TV.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
When's the last time you said, hey, let me know
when Ota or let me know when Sodo's up to
the plate. It doesn't happen. You're not showing up to
see him. Boy, he hit a ball, you know, clear
out a Yankee stadium. He's a really good player. But
there has to be some fiscal responsibility when you're just saying, hey,
here you go.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I'm sure they have their accountants and they can say
this is why this is going to work. I mean,
even the money the Dodgers spent on Otani, I mean,
I got it. It's still seven hundred million dollars and
all takes is an injury or two and then what
do you have and then you're paying off somebody. I mean,
(08:38):
I don't get it, but I mean Soto is going
to get that money because Scott Morris is going to
make sure he gets that money. You're going to go
to the highest bidder. Red Sox are going to be involved, Yankees, Mets,
maybe the giant San Francisco Giants get involved in this. Hey,
who knows they'll be There'll be enough. There'll be enough
teams to make this interesting. That's all Scott Rris. Once
(09:00):
I need somebody to bid against somebody, that's it. Yes, yeah, Poe.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
It is funny that star power and production doesn't always match.
Like Ellie de la Cruz of the Reds has a
truckload of star power and he's fun to watch. He's exciting,
he's like a wild man out there. But his numbers
are good. He's got good numbers. Not Ronald Acunya numbers
or Jan Soda numbers, but Ellie de la Cruz. When
I see on Sports Center or whatever, Oh he's up
or here's a highlight, I tune in, I pick my
(09:26):
head up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Well, first of all, you got a short stop who's
doing this, and he's maybe the fastest guy in bad
Like there's entertainment to him. Now, do I want to
spend six hundred and seven hundred million on Ellie de
la Cruz? No, I don't. But you know, this is
why teams get into these situations. The Browns were stupid
and they go, we gotta have Deshaun Watson. We're gonna
give him whatever we want. Now, looked at what he's
(09:49):
done to the franchise. You know, the Giants with Daniel Jones,
lads give him the money. Like you know Jaguars do
they have a franchise quarterback. They gave him the money here.
You know, we just you get drunk sometimes you're like,
we got to be really smart, we got to be
really smart. And then all of a sudden they were like,
let's be stupid and then you start spending this money
(10:10):
and then you say to your team, we can't do anything.
We're financially strapped.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Let's be stupid.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, stupid. We do that on a daily basis, right, Todd.
Now we make a living.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Yes, see how stupid we could be for three hours?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Okay, what other pole questions do we have? Stupid?
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Let's see, we could dive into the t O dubs.
Oh okay, those are always enlightening. This is one of Todd's.
Do you like big men shooting threes? Heck, yeah, it's
kind of freakishly awesome. Or hate it?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Stay down low and grab rebounds. Dude, I like when
they make threes. I don't like when they shoot threes,
kind of like it's unfair. Well, you're not going to
block when by Nyama's shot on the perimeter.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Karl Anthony Towns, he had a I think he had
forty six last night.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I reinvented the game, Yes he did.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
I think this the first time in NBA history that
you've had three players on the same night score forty
six or more. So you had Jannis and you had
Victor and then you had Karl Anthony in the Towns. Yes, yes, see.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Big men shooting threes is kind of like a bear.
It's just unfair that a bear is that strong, that
fast and can climb. That's unfair. There's no reason to
be all three of those things. You could be that fast,
you could be that strong, but don't climb. Come on,
this is stupid. You ever see how fast they climb
a tree? Is crazy. That's what Victor Wembin Yama being
(11:45):
a good three point shooter is.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
We're going to call him the bear, the Victor the
bear when bear Yama? Okay, got it, Todd, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
He's up to eight and a half threes attempted per game.
He took five and a half last year. He is
a three point percentages up from thirty two to thirty
five percent. He's twenty one years old. But see that's
the scary part.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
And I always said, if Yannis learned how to hit
a mid range jumper, no one would be able to
stop him. He could average forty a night if he
wanted to. Well, he doesn't have a good shot, but
Wemba Yama, if you say, all right, pick your poison
perimeter or inside, then that's dangerous. And he's really young.
(12:26):
He's got a handle. He can be inside outside, he
can play defense inside and outside. He can play defense
inside and outside while not even moving. He can be
in the paint and still guard you on the perimeter.
Scary what the future is for him? I would definitely
I would invest in that stock of all the younger
players that you're talking about, Victor wen Benyama. He's just
(12:48):
learning how to play the game. And if you get
a consistent point guard with him, scary, scary how great
he's going to be. And he's had three can secutive
really good games here where he's getting thirty and twelve
and then you know, you have fifty points in twenty
six minutes of work. I mean, if you're looking at
(13:09):
points per minute, that's up. There is there an efficiency rating?
What is yeah, the efficiency rate? Let me check the
metrics here, the efficiency rating on this.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
It's got to be off the charts.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Is that how somebody in analytics speaks well, I don't know.
It feels like we always say, you know, that's what,
let me check the metrics here.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I would probably be more like, well, let me check
the efficiency rating on this and then we'll see that
sounds about actually one of the top performers this year
in efficiency rating, and then you have to push your
glasses back. Are you kidding me? Victor Wimbaniama's efficiency rating?
Right now, it's all the jas back.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
In the league.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
That's pretty perfect, right there.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
We're such no at alls, We're perfect. Let's be stupid,
all right, let me take a break.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
It's just more fun when you make fun of everything.
It's just more fun.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Well, when you make fun of yourself, then you can
make fun of everything. Yea, yeah we are. We're just
making fun of our industry. So you gotta laugh at
yourself first. I gotta beat you to the punch.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Although we did. We have spent most of the week
torching dentists too, and we only.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Spent a couple of minutes yesterday on that. I know
they're still fallout from that. My friend who's a dentist,
who has the sausage fingers, Yeah, all of a sudden
I see him. He goes, uh, hey, sausage fingers.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
I said, yeah, yeah, are you trying to drop weight
in his fingers?
Speaker 2 (14:38):
No, No, he's he's he's a big guy, former football player.
Speaker 6 (14:43):
We're gonna fill cavities you don't have.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Whoa easy there? Todd. I didn't realize the easy there
to what are we doing here? Come on, let's be stupid.
Let me let me take a break. I think we
just got started here. I'm not sure. Let's regroup here,
uh coming, Oh Shaquille O'Neil speaking a big man. De Patrick,
(15:08):
shut that up. He'll join us later on our good
buddy Ross Tucker will stop by. We'll take a break
back after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports

Thursday morning. Hope you're off to a good start as well.
(15:32):
People want to know if we can put Let's be
Stupid on a T shirt? Definitely would sell. Sure we
can maybe get around to that.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Yes, Paul, let's without the apostrophe, you know, like without
it you just take it off.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
And the apostrophe too. Yeah, let's get.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Let's get stupid, Let's be stupid, Let's.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Be stupid, Let's be stupid, Let's be stupid. Yeah, all right,
play the day is coming up. We'll settle on a
poll question as well. I mentioned that Victor wembin yam
huh had fifty in twenty six minutes of work. And
I was curious, what is the record for fewest minutes
most points in NBA history, PAULI, do you have the information?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
I do?
Speaker 4 (16:12):
He broke someone's record who is still in the league
and who had a kind of good week.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Who would let you guess, Marvin, that's easy, Clay Thompson.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Clay Thompson's correct. Wow, Clay Thompson actually had the first
place and third place Joelle Embiid had fifty points in
twenty seven minutes. And that's a bunch of guys like
Lillard and Jannis and Devin Booker.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Well, what's Klay Thompson's numbers.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
Twenty seven minutes? Fifty two points, twenty eighteen?
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Okay, well it's pretty close.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Who Stall of the Day?
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Stanna Day, Start of a Day, Santa to Day.
Speaker 8 (16:51):
This is the Start of the.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Day, brought to you buy Canadian America, the official trading
cards of the program. If Victor had played one more minute,
might have gotten another three, then he would have had
fifty three in twenty seven minutes. Super work. But you're
starting to see, you know, the evolution of the game
and maybe it goes back to Dirk Novitzky and his
(17:13):
impact on seven footers, because you know, for such a
long period of time, your big man was down load.
Now we've had good shooting big men. I go back
to Bob Lanier when he played came out of Saint Bonaventure,
Patrick Ewing that mid range jumper Rick Smit's was really good.
Bob Rule played for Seattle. Sam Perkins not necessarily your
(17:37):
prototypical big guy, but Sam Perkins was a really good shooter.
Designated shooter. Rashid Wallace a big guy, good shooter. I'm
you know, Dave Cowens played for the Celtics. These guys
were mid range jumpers. Dirk took it out and then
all of a sudden, it's like, what's he doing on
the perimeter? And then all of a sudden you saw
what he was doing on the perimeter. But the evolution
(17:58):
of the game where now you men the big guy
wants to shoot threes, like Shaq's going to join us
later on. And Shaq has talked about how Steph Curry
has well not intentionally ruined the game. He is because
of his greatness. Everybody wants to imitate Steph Curry and
you can't. And you do have a lot of players
(18:19):
who are not good three point shooters, but everybody thinks
they're supposed to shoot threes. Everybody's on the perimeter. There's
very little cutting going to the basket. So you do
you need a three and D guy. Everybody feels like
they're a three and D guy. But Victor Wimbenyama, and
that's scary that he's making threes. It looks weird. It's
like unfolding a ladder when he takes his shot, and
(18:42):
I'm leaving out. Bob Mcatoo is one of my favorite players.
Just offense, instant offense. When he played for the Buffalo Braves.
You're going to get a guy who's hitting those fifteen
to eighteen foot jumpers. So you can go down through
history where you'll have a lot of these big men
who were shooting. They weren't shooting volume threes because back
then nobody was really shooting threes. Now it feels like
(19:06):
everybody Lebron another triple double. This is three in a
row for him, and as JJ Reddick said, he's mastered
the game and he's right there. If you watch him play,
I mean he's not fast, he's not jumping quickness. I
mean he looks forty years of age sometimes. But the
ability to understand the game is what separates him from
(19:29):
anybody else who has played this late into their careers.
And he's still a top ten player. Now we could
argue that, but he's still a top ten player. Triple
double again. And at times, you know, a lot of
it comes down to basketball IQ. We've all played on
the playground where you're like Gohley, that guy's athletic, he
(19:51):
doesn't know how to play the game. He can be
out of position, you know, you know, done how to
play defense, whatever it might be, not good, whatever, but
you know, jump out of the gym. How many times
we play against the guy who could jump out of
the gym. And I love playing against the guy who
jumped out of the gym because I knew he was
going to try to block every shot and he would
(20:13):
go for every pump fake there and be like, all right,
see you later. But you see these guys who understand
the game. You know, Michael Jordan understood it, Isaiah Magic, Larry.
I mean, there's so many players down through history where
you go, how did they do what they did? For
such a long period of time. Steve Nash, if you
stand next to Steve Nash and I gave you fifty
(20:35):
guesses on what he did for a living if you
didn't know, and then I say, well, you know, he
won the MVP twice in the NBA. What looks like
he's in a grunge band. No, no, no, he was
MVP twice. Now we could argue that second MVP that
should have gone to Shack. But like there's just certain
players where you go, how did they do what they do?
(20:58):
But I think so much of it is under standing
the game. You can't get to the NBA and not
have talent, So everybody gets there has talent. Now what
do you do with that talent? And that's what's amazing
with Lebron, it really is. So you had Steph had
an unbelievable night last night or ninety four, here's Lebron.
(21:18):
Katie's got the Suns playing really well. And I said
it yesterday, like we are so fortunate to be able
to see these three great players that ten years from
now will look back and say, yeah, Lee, we were lucky. Yes, Marmon, Yeah,
When Lebron was in high school and everyone was hyping
him up. I was like, what's the big deal?
Speaker 6 (21:36):
And then on ESPN they had his first high school
game one and then he does it behind the back
pass full speed. I said, oh, never mind, because there's
always a six to nine guy in every single high
school class that scores thirty. But they're like, but he
can't do that, and pick vitels like only Magic can
do something like that. And that's what separated himself from
everybody else.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
WHI he's the all time leading scorer, Like he's gonna
be up there in all of these categories. He had
thirty five, twelve and fourteen. He has forty thirty point
triple doubles in his career. Stat of the Day, SAT
of the day, that best stat of the day. Stat
of the day, here comes that what stat of the
(22:16):
day brought to you by a pen in America. I
did watch the beginning of the Bucks game. I got
a heads up from somebody saying, hey, Giannis is going off.
He scored twenty two of the first twenty four points
for the Bucks, so he outscored Detroit and overtime by himself.
He finished with fifty nine and that's five shy of
(22:36):
his career high. Crazy, Karl Anthony Towns had forty six.
How did the Knicks lose to the Bulls? I mean really,
how does that happen? Here's Mike Breen on the call,
Jalen Brunson with a chance to win the game. Brunson
looking to get free. He wants to get it. Two
(22:58):
seconds ago, Brunsons puts it.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
Up for the Winds off the rim. Looks like I
was gonna fall through the mixt lose a heartbreaker. Mike
Breen definitely wanted to give you a bang.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
It. I'm watching the game. I'm going you're you're leaving,
letting the Bulls just hang in there, come on, let's go.
You're raised in a Karl Anthony Towns performance here, Oh
my god, a.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
Deep hold on. Sorry not to cut you off, but
to cut you off. You didn't mention Karl Anthony Towns.
Where you talking about all the big men they changed
the game? Yeah, you're talking about Bob Lanier and Dirk.
Yeah you miss Carl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Yeah, I'm just getting to him. Yeah, alphabetically going, you know,
Carl Anthony t for Towns. I was gonna get there.
Played well last night, Yes, Hunt.
Speaker 10 (23:48):
Should Mike bring say on a last second shot that
missus Klang instead of bang.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
No, you should not do that for the wind Klang.
Speaker 10 (23:58):
You don't like that.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Why do you skew negative?
Speaker 6 (24:02):
I've been doing that lately. I don't know what's my
deal about the wrong side of the bedroom?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Not recently and an alarming run.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
I can send myself a pretty positive person in general.
I don't know, maybe just these three hours.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
No, yeah, maybe, like I don't know how you are
when you're not here, But man, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
I kind of whistle and kind of hot my way
to the car after the show.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
I don't know what's going on during the to.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Get away from us.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
You're like, yes, it is possible that after seventeen or
eighteen years of almost constant abuse, Todd has become more negative.
Maybe it's possible it's had a negative.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Effect on him. Matt in Portland, Hi, Matt, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Abb?
Speaker 8 (24:42):
Six foot sweaty one ninety sweet. So yesterday was there
was a congressional hearing about UFOs and space aliens.
Speaker 11 (24:54):
It was a second such hearing in.
Speaker 8 (24:56):
As many years, and I was wondering if that was
on your radar you and the Dane and have thought
about that. And also I was hoping to get a
taste of Kevin Harlan announcing the apparently eminent alien invasion.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
All right, well let's let's go out to New Mexico
and Kevin Harlan joins us now with this report.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
The Eminem alien invasion.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yeah, is that what I'm saying about an alien invasion?
Speaker 2 (25:20):
I think it's just just go with the bid, you know,
like Kevin Harlan aliens.
Speaker 12 (25:28):
It's eighteen fourteen in favor of the bulls. But wait
a second, there's a UFO over the arena. Just like
Eminem predicted. There are strange lights. We are being invaded
by monsters.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Yes, maybe maybe maybe I should have given you time
to kind of prepare. That is, did Eminem say something
about aliens? I didn't follow what the report was.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (25:52):
I just liked that.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
With everything going on in the government, like the like
they're casually you know, what, what's up of hearing about
UFOs right now? How about that? Nothing else going on?
We need to focus on. Why don't we do a
little more on the UFOs. It's been six months, yes.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Paul, Yeah, I just looked it up. This is a
real thing.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
It started in July twenty twenty three, and this is
the second slate of hearings by the House Oversight Committee,
and they're hearing witnesses on whether there's intelligent alien life
that may or has visited.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Us on Earth.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Do they have an undersite committee checking like the oversight
Did they miss it the first time? Right? They're coming
back to it. But is Eminem involved in this? I
don't find his name out. Okay, that's what I didn't know.
I didn't know that Eminem was leading the Oversight committee
on aliens.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Here, some of these people are asking the governments to
put together our civilian reporting mechanism and that people can
mention when they spot UFOs send it right to the
government for action.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Bob in Montana, Hi, Bob, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (26:54):
Oh? Hey, DP, Hey, real quick, while we're ragging on Fritzy,
I'm surprised he didn't pick up on Demi Moore's birthday
on Monday and make it like a national holiday in
the man cave. But the real reason I'm calling on
just to follow up from two weeks ago. I'll be
single here in about another twelve days and I had
a follow up question. So the first thing I should
(27:14):
say when I walk out of the courthouse when I'm
singles should be Asa Lavista Baby ding Dong, the Witch
is Dead? Or do I go to DP classic suck
it back row?
Speaker 2 (27:28):
You know what, I'm just playing nice. I just play nice, Bob, Yeah,
just play nice. It's be the bigger man.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
Oh, I am a big man and everything I know
you are.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You are a big man. But you know you probably
had some nice times with your your ex, didn't you?
Speaker 5 (27:46):
I did? Actually, Man, you're a good guy to call
their DP. So yeah, you're talking me down from off
the ledge of being like a jerk. So I really
appreciate that. Birch. Marvin saved me three years ago, and
now you're saving you today.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Thank you, Bo, Thank you. Maybe if you had called earlier,
you could have salvaged your marriage. Yes, Marvin, did you
help him three years ago?
Speaker 6 (28:05):
I guess. Oh, I don't remember, but you're welcome.
Speaker 13 (28:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
Just oh, Fritzy, you just sent this to me. So
Eminem has a song called Alien.
Speaker 6 (28:14):
I wasn't familiar.
Speaker 10 (28:15):
I did a search and it says Alien is a
powerful rap track inspired by eminem style blending hard hitting
bars with a futuristic theme.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Okay, I've looked at a picture.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
It looks like an album cover.
Speaker 10 (28:26):
It says Alien with a picture of Eminem on it.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Okay, Andrew in Washington. It's gonna be one of those days,
isn't it. Andrew, what do you have?
Speaker 11 (28:35):
Good morning, DP and Danet. I guess I am still
Andrew in Washington. I've had a couple other names the
past two mornings.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
But that is fine.
Speaker 11 (28:43):
You know, if Bob is a big Cabs fan and
they're not playing too shitty ironm so that's excellent. But hey,
content is king, and if you guys are being too nice,
that's not too good. Being a little bit mean is better.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
So I appreciate that. Hey, i'd have Bob, who does
the opens for the show, took some shots at Andrew
and we laughed. We thought they were funny. Andrew, So
hopefully you were entertained by boy and taking a shot.
Speaker 11 (29:12):
Oh yeah, it's awesome. I actually brought my son out
from his room. He just woke it up and said, hey,
listen to this.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
We're calling me a name, and he liked it.
Speaker 11 (29:20):
I do think that let's be stupid to be a
better shirt than soft turd. I don't think that would
sell very well, but I was. I thought last night
was a great NBA night, just to get back on
the sports realm of it. You know, you had two
people over fifty points, you had a thirty point triple double,
and you had the Calves win thirteen and oh, they're
(29:40):
becoming real and real, more real. But if you go back,
we had another night like that January twenty second of
this year. That's when em Beads scored seventy, Kat had
sixty two, Don Chik had the thirty point triple double,
and of course Schmidty's Calves won, so that made it
a complete trifecta.
Speaker 5 (29:58):
Content is King always.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Love you guys, and thank you and thank you Andrew. Yes.
Speaker 10 (30:03):
By the way, I'm getting a lot of tweets suggesting
that the caller said imminent.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
How odd.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Okay, well, I'm going to blame him because he did
an enunciate.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
He said an eminent eminence, Yeah, alien invasion.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
He had a bad phone too.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
It's imminent, right, not eminent, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Imminent, Imminent front. Who has this song Emminent Front, Eminence,
Eminence Front. It's a put on? Yeah, yeah, maybe not
the same thing. Okay, well there goes Aliens, there goes Ellien.
That's so weird, uh sewn? And Oregon is back? I Sean,
(30:49):
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (30:52):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Dan?
Speaker 14 (30:52):
I listen to you talk about the problem with a
three pointer in the NBA quite a bit, and I
gave this my usual thirty seconds of and I want
to hear your opinion on you know what if you
know that since the three pointers fifty percent more points,
and that's just people getting greedy, what if we devalue
the three pointer and make that a four pointer and
(31:14):
a regular basket three, so then it's only thirty three
percent more points instead of fifty.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Why don't we make it two and a half points?
Speaker 5 (31:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (31:25):
We could only do half points?
Speaker 5 (31:26):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Why not? I don't know. I would still love to
watch an NBA game. I'm gonna ask Shaq the best
team if you took away the three point line? Who
would be the best team? Would the Celtics be the
best team. I think Denver might be the best team
without the three point shot, But look, you're built that way.
You're built for the three point shot. I totally get it.
(31:47):
I I and I appreciate great shooting, but there's so
much bad shooting, and it's just volume shooting. And that's
the problem I have. Everybody stands around you may whip
it around the perimeter. That's all basketball has become, unfortunately,
or at least a lot of it has.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
Yes, Marvin, the Lakers at a backdoor cut in their
first game of the season, and I was ready to
give JJ Ready Coach of the Year.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
And it's only because I've watched great basketball being played.
I go back to the Portland Trail Blazers with Bill Walton.
That is the finest year I ever had watching basketball
because it was truly basketball with Walton, doctor Jack Ramsey,
their ability to transition, you know, fast breaking, back door cutting, passing,
(32:34):
they made the extra path like that's fun basketball, It's movement,
and I just thought it's the purest form of basketball
that I've seen in a long, long, long time. It
doesn't happen, but I know what it can be. I
don't know if it ever gets back to it. And
I'm slowly chiseling away at the You throw a fastball
and you try to hit a home run, and if
you don't hit a home run, you strike out. We're
(32:56):
getting movement in baseball. It's coming back and I like
that Play.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
The day Up next, be sure to catch the live
edition of The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am
Eastern six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
Oh my God, the Play of the Day.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Oh my God, this is the play of the day.
Speaker 13 (33:21):
Check this out, crowd part of by George heard about
Kissburg turn shoots as less for fifty.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
He's not human, He's an alien. Oh another alien mentioned
Bamduel's Sports Network at your Play of the Day, brought
to you by Rapid Radios in an emergency instant pushed
to talk walkie talkies for clear national LTE coverage, one
touch communication, peace of mind for connecting with family in
(33:53):
an emergency. Go to Rapid Radios dot com from to
sixty percent off free shipping. Now you can make some
money off this today. If I said, who was the
youngest player in NBA history to have fifty points in
a game, Marvin, I'm going to start with you, Lebron,
(34:14):
He's second.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Paul, I'm gonna pull this one out of a weird spot.
Was it Brandon Knight for the Pistons when he's a rookie.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Ooh was so close. If this was Jeopardy, I would
have to say Marvin.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
He's right there. First name right, Brandon Jennings.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
Brandon Jennings, Bucks, Brandon Jennings. Oh, Brandon Jennings had fifty
five points. I'm confused. You did Lebron James, Ben Devin Booker,
then Victor wen Benyama, and then Lebron James. I was
going to say Kevin Garnett for some reason, but uh,
don't know if he's on the list there, But Victor
(34:52):
Wembnyama goes for fifty. That is your play of the day.
Pauli has a lightly interesting stat on Giannis here. It
is okay.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
Giannis this year is averaging thirty three point three points
per game, leading the league in scoring. He's only attempting
point eight threes per game. He doesn't use the three anymore.
Five years ago, after winning his first MVP, he bumped
it up and started jacking threes. He was taken five
a game, hitting about thirty percent, and over the next
couple of years he would shoot like three or four game,
(35:23):
always about twenty nine percent.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
It never hit.
Speaker 4 (35:26):
So the quick question is if he finishes the season
with thirty points in attempting one or few or threes
per game. When was the last time that happened a
player in the NBA thirty points per game less than one.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
To three attempted. Oh, Michael Jordan.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
No, but Michael Jordan did it thrice times. He's not
the last one. But Jordan did it three different times.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Okay, Marvin mm nah, how about a hint. It's at
least thirty years ago.
Speaker 7 (35:58):
Garnett just thirty years ago averaged thirty point yes, Mormon,
Dominique Wilkins No, Ellen Iverson No, Well that should be
the answer.
Speaker 6 (36:16):
Because his nickname is the answer.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yes, Todd, do you have an answer to you?
Speaker 6 (36:20):
I thought it was gonna be Jordan, a bird or Magic,
one of those guys. I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Eleven eleven, nineteen eighty nine. Karl the Mailman alone thirty
one ppg average one half of one three attempted per game.
Speaker 12 (36:34):
Okay, statu yeah, stop static, statup start static.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Oh but we're not done. We have an NBA quiz.
Do you have a quiz? That was the quiz off
the lightly interesting stuck?
Speaker 10 (36:51):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (36:51):
I thought you had a lightly interesting yannistat and an
NBA quiz I did? Was that all in one?
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (36:58):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Oh, okay quiz with Karmelo.
Speaker 10 (37:00):
Yes, time and Carl was mailing it in back then
you could have okay if you really wanted to.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
Lol, you're killing it today.
Speaker 13 (37:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
I thought Eminem was imminent.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
It's okay. I didn't hear it either. I thought he
said Eminem well.
Speaker 10 (37:15):
Continuing to get social media tweets, making sure we know
for sure that it's definitely imminent, is what the caller said.
Speaker 6 (37:20):
Okay, it's just like there's got to be like fifty
of these, are they? Okay?
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Yeah, all right, we made a mistake. Thank you, Mark
and Virginia. Hey, Mark, a second.
Speaker 15 (37:34):
Time, long time. I have a great idea for your
upcoming possible spring trip to Iowa. Okay, you do a
show from you do a show from the Field of Dreams,
and with all of the Danettes and the brgs, you
could do so many scenes from the movie, but you
have to do one scene where Fritzy is the little
(37:55):
girl that falls off the bleachers and gets hot Dog
stuck at his throat.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
All right, we'll take that under advisement. We're also trying
to go to the NFL Draft. It's at Lambeau. Oh,
we're trying to go to the NFL Draft. Any suggestions
out there? Who wants to host us?
Speaker 4 (38:18):
Oh, you're like like a trailer?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
No, no, no bar? Oh is there a bar that
wants to host the show? Like Thursday and Friday NFL
Draft at Lambeau? Yes, Seaton.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
So if I'm getting this correctly correct? Okay, so far
in twenty twenty five, what we have planned is a
road trip through Iowa, stopping at people's houses for dinner
every night, yes, and looking for people to host us
at the NFL Draft.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Well maybe a bar.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Oh okay, So you're not just talking houses, you're talking
businesses too.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Yeah, yeah, okay, I mean that the homes in Iowa
aren't hosting the show. They would just have us over
for dinner. And Lambeau we'd have a bar and then
we would do our show a couple of days there
and you could have people come in and watch the show.
We're bringing back drafts at the draft, yes, yes, Green
Bay is a perfect place drafts at the Draft. We'll
(39:10):
get Miller Light involved in that and then we'll take
the show on the road. Now, so we're going to
be doing the Super Bowl and then maybe taking a
tour of Iowa.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
Oh my gosh, this is at the super Bowl. You'll
go to New Orleans again.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
Yes, we are New Orleans. And then we'll try to
take a spin around Iowa and then we'll go to Lambo,
We'll go to Green Bay. That's what I'm hoping for.
Plan accordingly, but if somebody wants to host the show,
let us know, and then we'll let you know about
Iowa as well. I told the Danis this morning. I
(39:44):
don't know. I'm locked in on this. I made a
promise I'd like to go see Iowa.
Speaker 13 (39:49):
Now.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
I've been through Iowa. I've traveled through Iowa before, but
I haven't been to the college towns. And that's what
we're probably looking at here. Maybe a little little tour there.
All right, Uh, one hour in the books already. I
don't know what we accomplished, other than we came up
with a slogan, let's get stupid, and let's get stupid.
(40:12):
We can't even we didn't rehearse that. No, obviously, Ross
Tucker's going to join us. Ross is on the call
for tonight's Commander's Eagles game and Shaquille O'Neal will join
us in the final hour of the program, just getting started,

(00:49):
who's playing Thursday Night? It's not a good matchup. Thursday
Night's had a pretty good resume here. Now you got
the Commanders and the Eagles coming up tonight. The Commanders
are getting three and a half. Over under for entertainment
purposes is forty eight and a half. We'll have a
play of the day poll question stat of the Day
all of that coming up. Had a big night in basketball.
(01:10):
Jiannis drops fifty nine. Lebron another triple double, so he's
had three consecutive triple doubles. He's going to be in
the record books for the youngest to do something and
the oldest to do something. More importantly, the Lakers did
win Victor Wembenyama his first fifty point game. He only
needed twenty six minutes to do so. In My Cavaliers
(01:32):
are thirteen and oh the Colts are turning back to
Anthony Richardson. I'll tell you why they are. That'll be
coming up all right. Stat of the Day brought to

what's the poll question for the first hour. That's the year.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Twenty twenty five, not twenty to twenty five calendars available.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Correct, twenty twenty five is the calendar year. Yes, yes, yes,
there are more than twenty to twenty five calendars available, yes, yes, yes, Right.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Do you want Paul's pole question or the multitude of
thods Todds?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Yeah, let me start with PAULI because he seemed like
he was in a good mood today. Yes, maybe that
will be reflected in his pole question. Yes, yes, Paul.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Before the poll, I was just looking at the lebron
James he turns forty on Decemmer thirtieth. Okay, like you
were just saying, like he's going to have he's going
to create all the forty records the next six months,
like they're gonna be his and his forever. And then
the other guy who's really relevant, Cooper Flag. He turns
eighteen eighteen on December nineteenth.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah, all right, he'll be in the NBA next year
as an eighteen year old.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
December twenty first, two thousand and six is when Cooper
Flag was born two thousand and six. On that night,
Lebron was in his like third year, fourth year in
the league, and had twenty six points that night.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Yeah, Lebron will face him. Lebron will be forty, Cooper
Flag will be eighteen, and Bronni will probably still be
in the G League only playing home games.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Yes, Seaton, Yeah, we're about to hit an era E
two where, uh, let's see if Cooper Flag was born
in two thousand and six. Right, we started doing the
show in your attic in two thousand and seven, so
we're going to we're reaching an era where modern professional
athletes entire lifespan has been lived during this version of
(03:59):
The dam Patrick Show.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
All Right, I feel old.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yeah, same.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
What are some of Todd's whole questions? Oh well, no,
we didn't get to PAULI show.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Oh yeah, that's right, Paul the most sure thing future,
the future you would bet most on. All right, Victor
Wembanyama at a Monster Knight, Jayden Daniels, Okay, he's doing well.
We have room for two others. Travis Hunter could be
on there. That's a bit of a risky one. Sure
(04:35):
Door Sanders Okay, if he wanted to put.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Nepotism any other youngsters that you want to put in there?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
That is the question, isn't it. Yeah, it feels like
we need a baseball youngster, but they don't really exist.
Kidding One Soto. Yeah, I'll tell you what. I'll bet
on his bank account's future. That's for damn sure.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I don't want him. I don't want him.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
What.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
No, I don't want your Anti Soto. I am Anti Soto. No, No,
not interested. It's it's so much money over so many years.
I just I have no interest in that.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
None.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
You know, I got Otani. Otani's special. He's unique. There's
no one like him. One Soto, the talented player bounced
around a couple of teams, already gonna be bouncing around again.
And you're gonna pay him six hundred million dollars. If
I'm paying that kind of money, I want you to
be a gate attraction. I want you to be a
(05:41):
box office star. One Soto is not a box office star.
He's just a really good baseball player. I mean, Mike Trout,
as great as he is, not a box office star.
You just go that guy knows how to play, all right?
Like if I'm spending that kind of money. You got
to be great.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
So five years ago you were cool with Bryce Harper
because he puts.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
People on the stee Yes, he is a box he's
he would be a box office kind of ballplayer. Absolutely,
you would show up. People show up to see him.
Aaron Judge, they show up to see him. Otani, they
show up to see him. But I don't know if
there's anybody else in that category. And I'm not spending
six hundred million dollars on him. Like what market am
(06:27):
I tapping into? I got Japan with Otani and we
saw that in the ratings, like they're watching fifteen million
people a night when they were in the playoffs. But
Juan Soto, he's an average fielder. He's a wonderful hitter,
but what does he have? Like are you saying many
(06:49):
whoses with charisma or whatever it might be. No, I
don't want one sodo talented player, but that kind of
money I got to get a little bit more.
Speaker 6 (06:59):
Yes, Marvin, what about a discount of only three hundred
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
It's not gonna happen because Scott Morris is his agent.
Speaker 6 (07:05):
Oh, I'd say it was gonna happen. But if it
was three hundredllion dollars, would you take.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Him over how many years?
Speaker 5 (07:11):
Ten?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Well, of course I would. That's thirty million a year,
So what's sixty? Come on, what's another thirty? Don't hire
the carbonizer agent. Thirty million. Yeah, that's the difference between
thirty million and sixty.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Wan Soto just turned twenty six years old. For all
Star games in a row.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Yeah, I don't. I don't care. I don't want that,
not for that kind of money. I gotta get something
off the field as well. Yes, Mark, but.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
There's only three guys that are really box office in
Major League Baseball anyway. So you're gonna have to overpay
for him. You're gonna have to overpay for all these
guys except for Judge. Yeah, but Judge is worth that.
Otani's worth that, Like they give me more. Judges must
see TV, O tanis must see TV.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
When's the last time you said, hey, let me know
when Ota or let me know when Sodo's up to
the plate. It doesn't happen. You're not showing up to
see him. Boy, he hit a ball, you know, clear
out a Yankee stadium. He's a really good player. But
there has to be some fiscal responsibility when you're just saying, hey,
here you go.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I'm sure they have their accountants and they can say
this is why this is going to work. I mean,
even the money the Dodgers spent on Otani, I mean,
I got it. It's still seven hundred million dollars and
all takes is an injury or two and then what
do you have and then you're paying off somebody. I mean,
(08:38):
I don't get it, but I mean Soto is going
to get that money because Scott Morris is going to
make sure he gets that money. You're going to go
to the highest bidder. Red Sox are going to be involved, Yankees, Mets,
maybe the giant San Francisco Giants get involved in this. Hey,
who knows they'll be There'll be enough. There'll be enough
teams to make this interesting. That's all Scott Rris. Once
(09:00):
I need somebody to bid against somebody, that's it. Yes, yeah, Poe.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
It is funny that star power and production doesn't always match.
Like Ellie de la Cruz of the Reds has a
truckload of star power and he's fun to watch. He's exciting,
he's like a wild man out there. But his numbers
are good. He's got good numbers. Not Ronald Acunya numbers
or Jan Soda numbers, but Ellie de la Cruz. When
I see on Sports Center or whatever, Oh he's up
or here's a highlight, I tune in, I pick my
(09:26):
head up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Well, first of all, you got a short stop who's
doing this, and he's maybe the fastest guy in bad
Like there's entertainment to him. Now, do I want to
spend six hundred and seven hundred million on Ellie de
la Cruz? No, I don't. But you know, this is
why teams get into these situations. The Browns were stupid
and they go, we gotta have Deshaun Watson. We're gonna
give him whatever we want. Now, looked at what he's
(09:49):
done to the franchise. You know, the Giants with Daniel Jones,
lads give him the money. Like you know Jaguars do
they have a franchise quarterback. They gave him the money here.
You know, we just you get drunk sometimes you're like,
we got to be really smart, we got to be
really smart. And then all of a sudden they were like,
let's be stupid and then you start spending this money
(10:10):
and then you say to your team, we can't do anything.
We're financially strapped.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Let's be stupid.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, stupid. We do that on a daily basis, right, Todd.
Now we make a living.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Yes, see how stupid we could be for three hours?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Okay, what other pole questions do we have? Stupid?
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Let's see, we could dive into the t O dubs.
Oh okay, those are always enlightening. This is one of Todd's.
Do you like big men shooting threes? Heck, yeah, it's
kind of freakishly awesome. Or hate it?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Stay down low and grab rebounds. Dude, I like when
they make threes. I don't like when they shoot threes,
kind of like it's unfair. Well, you're not going to
block when by Nyama's shot on the perimeter.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Karl Anthony Towns, he had a I think he had
forty six last night.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I reinvented the game, Yes he did.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
I think this the first time in NBA history that
you've had three players on the same night score forty
six or more. So you had Jannis and you had
Victor and then you had Karl Anthony in the Towns. Yes, yes, see.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Big men shooting threes is kind of like a bear.
It's just unfair that a bear is that strong, that
fast and can climb. That's unfair. There's no reason to
be all three of those things. You could be that fast,
you could be that strong, but don't climb. Come on,
this is stupid. You ever see how fast they climb
a tree? Is crazy. That's what Victor Wembin Yama being
(11:45):
a good three point shooter is.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
We're going to call him the bear, the Victor the
bear when bear Yama? Okay, got it, Todd, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
He's up to eight and a half threes attempted per game.
He took five and a half last year. He is
a three point percentages up from thirty two to thirty
five percent. He's twenty one years old. But see that's
the scary part.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
And I always said, if Yannis learned how to hit
a mid range jumper, no one would be able to
stop him. He could average forty a night if he
wanted to. Well, he doesn't have a good shot, but
Wemba Yama, if you say, all right, pick your poison
perimeter or inside, then that's dangerous. And he's really young.
(12:26):
He's got a handle. He can be inside outside, he
can play defense inside and outside. He can play defense
inside and outside while not even moving. He can be
in the paint and still guard you on the perimeter.
Scary what the future is for him? I would definitely
I would invest in that stock of all the younger
players that you're talking about, Victor wen Benyama. He's just
(12:48):
learning how to play the game. And if you get
a consistent point guard with him, scary, scary how great
he's going to be. And he's had three can secutive
really good games here where he's getting thirty and twelve
and then you know, you have fifty points in twenty
six minutes of work. I mean, if you're looking at
(13:09):
points per minute, that's up. There is there an efficiency rating?
What is yeah, the efficiency rate? Let me check the
metrics here, the efficiency rating on this.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
It's got to be off the charts.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Is that how somebody in analytics speaks well, I don't know.
It feels like we always say, you know, that's what,
let me check the metrics here.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
I would probably be more like, well, let me check
the efficiency rating on this and then we'll see that
sounds about actually one of the top performers this year
in efficiency rating, and then you have to push your
glasses back. Are you kidding me? Victor Wimbaniama's efficiency rating?
Right now, it's all the jas back.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
In the league.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
That's pretty perfect, right there.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
We're such no at alls, We're perfect. Let's be stupid,
all right, let me take a break.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
It's just more fun when you make fun of everything.
It's just more fun.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Well, when you make fun of yourself, then you can
make fun of everything. Yea, yeah we are. We're just
making fun of our industry. So you gotta laugh at
yourself first. I gotta beat you to the punch.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Although we did. We have spent most of the week
torching dentists too, and we only.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Spent a couple of minutes yesterday on that. I know
they're still fallout from that. My friend who's a dentist,
who has the sausage fingers, Yeah, all of a sudden
I see him. He goes, uh, hey, sausage fingers.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
I said, yeah, yeah, are you trying to drop weight
in his fingers?
Speaker 2 (14:38):
No, No, he's he's he's a big guy, former football player.
Speaker 6 (14:43):
We're gonna fill cavities you don't have.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Whoa easy there? Todd. I didn't realize the easy there
to what are we doing here? Come on, let's be stupid.
Let me let me take a break. I think we
just got started here. I'm not sure. Let's regroup here,
uh coming, Oh Shaquille O'Neil speaking a big man. De Patrick,
(15:08):
shut that up. He'll join us later on our good
buddy Ross Tucker will stop by. We'll take a break
back after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports
talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of our shows

Search FSR to listen live. Just getting started on this
Thursday morning. Hope you're off to a good start as well.
(15:32):
People want to know if we can put Let's be
Stupid on a T shirt? Definitely would sell. Sure we
can maybe get around to that.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Yes, Paul, let's without the apostrophe, you know, like without
it you just take it off.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
And the apostrophe too. Yeah, let's get.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Let's get stupid, Let's be stupid, Let's.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Be stupid, Let's be stupid, Let's be stupid. Yeah, all right,
play the day is coming up. We'll settle on a
poll question as well. I mentioned that Victor wembin yam
huh had fifty in twenty six minutes of work. And
I was curious, what is the record for fewest minutes
most points in NBA history, PAULI, do you have the information?
Speaker 3 (16:11):
I do?
Speaker 4 (16:12):
He broke someone's record who is still in the league
and who had a kind of good week.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Who would let you guess, Marvin, that's easy, Clay Thompson.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Clay Thompson's correct. Wow, Clay Thompson actually had the first
place and third place Joelle Embiid had fifty points in
twenty seven minutes. And that's a bunch of guys like
Lillard and Jannis and Devin Booker.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Well, what's Klay Thompson's numbers.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
Twenty seven minutes? Fifty two points, twenty eighteen?
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Okay, well it's pretty close.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Who Stall of the Day?
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Stanna Day, Start of a Day, Santa to Day.
Speaker 8 (16:51):
This is the Start of the.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Day, brought to you buy Canadian America, the official trading
cards of the program. If Victor had played one more minute,
might have gotten another three, then he would have had
fifty three in twenty seven minutes. Super work. But you're
starting to see, you know, the evolution of the game
and maybe it goes back to Dirk Novitzky and his
(17:13):
impact on seven footers, because you know, for such a
long period of time, your big man was down load.
Now we've had good shooting big men. I go back
to Bob Lanier when he played came out of Saint Bonaventure,
Patrick Ewing that mid range jumper Rick Smit's was really good.
Bob Rule played for Seattle. Sam Perkins not necessarily your
(17:37):
prototypical big guy, but Sam Perkins was a really good shooter.
Designated shooter. Rashid Wallace a big guy, good shooter. I'm
you know, Dave Cowens played for the Celtics. These guys
were mid range jumpers. Dirk took it out and then
all of a sudden, it's like, what's he doing on
the perimeter? And then all of a sudden you saw
what he was doing on the perimeter. But the evolution
(17:58):
of the game where now you men the big guy
wants to shoot threes, like Shaq's going to join us
later on. And Shaq has talked about how Steph Curry
has well not intentionally ruined the game. He is because
of his greatness. Everybody wants to imitate Steph Curry and
you can't. And you do have a lot of players
(18:19):
who are not good three point shooters, but everybody thinks
they're supposed to shoot threes. Everybody's on the perimeter. There's
very little cutting going to the basket. So you do
you need a three and D guy. Everybody feels like
they're a three and D guy. But Victor Wimbenyama, and
that's scary that he's making threes. It looks weird. It's
like unfolding a ladder when he takes his shot, and
(18:42):
I'm leaving out. Bob Mcatoo is one of my favorite players.
Just offense, instant offense. When he played for the Buffalo Braves.
You're going to get a guy who's hitting those fifteen
to eighteen foot jumpers. So you can go down through
history where you'll have a lot of these big men
who were shooting. They weren't shooting volume threes because back
then nobody was really shooting threes. Now it feels like
(19:06):
everybody Lebron another triple double. This is three in a
row for him, and as JJ Reddick said, he's mastered
the game and he's right there. If you watch him play,
I mean he's not fast, he's not jumping quickness. I
mean he looks forty years of age sometimes. But the
ability to understand the game is what separates him from
(19:29):
anybody else who has played this late into their careers.
And he's still a top ten player. Now we could
argue that, but he's still a top ten player. Triple
double again. And at times, you know, a lot of
it comes down to basketball IQ. We've all played on
the playground where you're like Gohley, that guy's athletic, he
(19:51):
doesn't know how to play the game. He can be
out of position, you know, you know, done how to
play defense, whatever it might be, not good, whatever, but
you know, jump out of the gym. How many times
we play against the guy who could jump out of
the gym. And I love playing against the guy who
jumped out of the gym because I knew he was
going to try to block every shot and he would
(20:13):
go for every pump fake there and be like, all right,
see you later. But you see these guys who understand
the game. You know, Michael Jordan understood it, Isaiah Magic, Larry.
I mean, there's so many players down through history where
you go, how did they do what they did? For
such a long period of time. Steve Nash, if you
stand next to Steve Nash and I gave you fifty
(20:35):
guesses on what he did for a living if you
didn't know, and then I say, well, you know, he
won the MVP twice in the NBA. What looks like
he's in a grunge band. No, no, no, he was
MVP twice. Now we could argue that second MVP that
should have gone to Shack. But like there's just certain
players where you go, how did they do what they do?
(20:58):
But I think so much of it is under standing
the game. You can't get to the NBA and not
have talent, So everybody gets there has talent. Now what
do you do with that talent? And that's what's amazing
with Lebron, it really is. So you had Steph had
an unbelievable night last night or ninety four, here's Lebron.
(21:18):
Katie's got the Suns playing really well. And I said
it yesterday, like we are so fortunate to be able
to see these three great players that ten years from
now will look back and say, yeah, Lee, we were lucky. Yes, Marmon, Yeah,
When Lebron was in high school and everyone was hyping
him up. I was like, what's the big deal?
Speaker 6 (21:36):
And then on ESPN they had his first high school
game one and then he does it behind the back
pass full speed. I said, oh, never mind, because there's
always a six to nine guy in every single high
school class that scores thirty. But they're like, but he
can't do that, and pick vitels like only Magic can
do something like that. And that's what separated himself from
everybody else.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
WHI he's the all time leading scorer, Like he's gonna
be up there in all of these categories. He had
thirty five, twelve and fourteen. He has forty thirty point
triple doubles in his career. Stat of the Day, SAT
of the day, that best stat of the day. Stat
of the day, here comes that what stat of the
(22:16):
day brought to you by a pen in America. I
did watch the beginning of the Bucks game. I got
a heads up from somebody saying, hey, Giannis is going off.
He scored twenty two of the first twenty four points
for the Bucks, so he outscored Detroit and overtime by himself.
He finished with fifty nine and that's five shy of
(22:36):
his career high. Crazy, Karl Anthony Towns had forty six.
How did the Knicks lose to the Bulls? I mean really,
how does that happen? Here's Mike Breen on the call,
Jalen Brunson with a chance to win the game. Brunson
looking to get free. He wants to get it. Two
(22:58):
seconds ago, Brunsons puts it.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
Up for the Winds off the rim. Looks like I
was gonna fall through the mixt lose a heartbreaker. Mike
Breen definitely wanted to give you a bang.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
It. I'm watching the game. I'm going you're you're leaving,
letting the Bulls just hang in there, come on, let's go.
You're raised in a Karl Anthony Towns performance here, Oh
my god, a.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
Deep hold on. Sorry not to cut you off, but
to cut you off. You didn't mention Karl Anthony Towns.
Where you talking about all the big men they changed
the game? Yeah, you're talking about Bob Lanier and Dirk.
Yeah you miss Carl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Yeah, I'm just getting to him. Yeah, alphabetically going, you know,
Carl Anthony t for Towns. I was gonna get there.
Played well last night, Yes, Hunt.
Speaker 10 (23:48):
Should Mike bring say on a last second shot that
missus Klang instead of bang.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
No, you should not do that for the wind Klang.
Speaker 10 (23:58):
You don't like that.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Why do you skew negative?
Speaker 6 (24:02):
I've been doing that lately. I don't know what's my
deal about the wrong side of the bedroom?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Not recently and an alarming run.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
I can send myself a pretty positive person in general.
I don't know, maybe just these three hours.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
No, yeah, maybe, like I don't know how you are
when you're not here, But man, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
I kind of whistle and kind of hot my way
to the car after the show.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
I don't know what's going on during the to.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Get away from us.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
You're like, yes, it is possible that after seventeen or
eighteen years of almost constant abuse, Todd has become more negative.
Maybe it's possible it's had a negative.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Effect on him. Matt in Portland, Hi, Matt, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Abb?
Speaker 8 (24:42):
Six foot sweaty one ninety sweet. So yesterday was there
was a congressional hearing about UFOs and space aliens.
Speaker 11 (24:54):
It was a second such hearing in.
Speaker 8 (24:56):
As many years, and I was wondering if that was
on your radar you and the Dane and have thought
about that. And also I was hoping to get a
taste of Kevin Harlan announcing the apparently eminent alien invasion.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
All right, well let's let's go out to New Mexico
and Kevin Harlan joins us now with this report.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
The Eminem alien invasion.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
Yeah, is that what I'm saying about an alien invasion?
Speaker 2 (25:20):
I think it's just just go with the bid, you know,
like Kevin Harlan aliens.
Speaker 12 (25:28):
It's eighteen fourteen in favor of the bulls. But wait
a second, there's a UFO over the arena. Just like
Eminem predicted. There are strange lights. We are being invaded
by monsters.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Yes, maybe maybe maybe I should have given you time
to kind of prepare. That is, did Eminem say something
about aliens? I didn't follow what the report was.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (25:52):
I just liked that.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
With everything going on in the government, like the like
they're casually you know, what, what's up of hearing about
UFOs right now? How about that? Nothing else going on?
We need to focus on. Why don't we do a
little more on the UFOs. It's been six months, yes.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Paul, Yeah, I just looked it up. This is a
real thing.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
It started in July twenty twenty three, and this is
the second slate of hearings by the House Oversight Committee,
and they're hearing witnesses on whether there's intelligent alien life
that may or has visited.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Us on Earth.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Do they have an undersite committee checking like the oversight
Did they miss it the first time? Right? They're coming
back to it. But is Eminem involved in this? I
don't find his name out. Okay, that's what I didn't know.
I didn't know that Eminem was leading the Oversight committee
on aliens.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Here, some of these people are asking the governments to
put together our civilian reporting mechanism and that people can
mention when they spot UFOs send it right to the
government for action.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Bob in Montana, Hi, Bob, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (26:54):
Oh? Hey, DP, Hey, real quick, while we're ragging on Fritzy,
I'm surprised he didn't pick up on Demi Moore's birthday
on Monday and make it like a national holiday in
the man cave. But the real reason I'm calling on
just to follow up from two weeks ago. I'll be
single here in about another twelve days and I had
a follow up question. So the first thing I should
(27:14):
say when I walk out of the courthouse when I'm
singles should be Asa Lavista Baby ding Dong, the Witch
is Dead? Or do I go to DP classic suck
it back row?
Speaker 2 (27:28):
You know what, I'm just playing nice. I just play nice, Bob, Yeah,
just play nice. It's be the bigger man.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
Oh, I am a big man and everything I know
you are.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You are a big man. But you know you probably
had some nice times with your your ex, didn't you?
Speaker 5 (27:46):
I did? Actually, Man, you're a good guy to call
their DP. So yeah, you're talking me down from off
the ledge of being like a jerk. So I really
appreciate that. Birch. Marvin saved me three years ago, and
now you're saving you today.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Thank you, Bo, Thank you. Maybe if you had called earlier,
you could have salvaged your marriage. Yes, Marvin, did you
help him three years ago?
Speaker 6 (28:05):
I guess. Oh, I don't remember, but you're welcome.
Speaker 13 (28:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
Just oh, Fritzy, you just sent this to me. So
Eminem has a song called Alien.
Speaker 6 (28:14):
I wasn't familiar.
Speaker 10 (28:15):
I did a search and it says Alien is a
powerful rap track inspired by eminem style blending hard hitting
bars with a futuristic theme.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Okay, I've looked at a picture.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
It looks like an album cover.
Speaker 10 (28:26):
It says Alien with a picture of Eminem on it.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Okay, Andrew in Washington. It's gonna be one of those days,
isn't it. Andrew, what do you have?
Speaker 11 (28:35):
Good morning, DP and Danet. I guess I am still
Andrew in Washington. I've had a couple other names the
past two mornings.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
But that is fine.
Speaker 11 (28:43):
You know, if Bob is a big Cabs fan and
they're not playing too shitty ironm so that's excellent. But hey,
content is king, and if you guys are being too nice,
that's not too good. Being a little bit mean is better.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
So I appreciate that. Hey, i'd have Bob, who does
the opens for the show, took some shots at Andrew
and we laughed. We thought they were funny. Andrew, So
hopefully you were entertained by boy and taking a shot.
Speaker 11 (29:12):
Oh yeah, it's awesome. I actually brought my son out
from his room. He just woke it up and said, hey,
listen to this.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
We're calling me a name, and he liked it.
Speaker 11 (29:20):
I do think that let's be stupid to be a
better shirt than soft turd. I don't think that would
sell very well, but I was. I thought last night
was a great NBA night, just to get back on
the sports realm of it. You know, you had two
people over fifty points, you had a thirty point triple double,
and you had the Calves win thirteen and oh, they're
(29:40):
becoming real and real, more real. But if you go back,
we had another night like that January twenty second of
this year. That's when em Beads scored seventy, Kat had
sixty two, Don Chik had the thirty point triple double,
and of course Schmidty's Calves won, so that made it
a complete trifecta.
Speaker 5 (29:58):
Content is King always.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Love you guys, and thank you and thank you Andrew. Yes.
Speaker 10 (30:03):
By the way, I'm getting a lot of tweets suggesting
that the caller said imminent.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
How odd.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Okay, well, I'm going to blame him because he did
an enunciate.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
He said an eminent eminence, Yeah, alien invasion.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
He had a bad phone too.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
It's imminent, right, not eminent, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Imminent, Imminent front. Who has this song Emminent Front, Eminence,
Eminence Front. It's a put on? Yeah, yeah, maybe not
the same thing. Okay, well there goes Aliens, there goes Ellien.
That's so weird, uh sewn? And Oregon is back? I Sean,
(30:49):
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (30:52):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Dan?
Speaker 14 (30:52):
I listen to you talk about the problem with a
three pointer in the NBA quite a bit, and I
gave this my usual thirty seconds of and I want
to hear your opinion on you know what if you
know that since the three pointers fifty percent more points,
and that's just people getting greedy, what if we devalue
the three pointer and make that a four pointer and
(31:14):
a regular basket three, so then it's only thirty three
percent more points instead of fifty.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Why don't we make it two and a half points?
Speaker 5 (31:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (31:25):
We could only do half points?
Speaker 5 (31:26):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Why not? I don't know. I would still love to
watch an NBA game. I'm gonna ask Shaq the best
team if you took away the three point line? Who
would be the best team? Would the Celtics be the
best team. I think Denver might be the best team
without the three point shot, But look, you're built that way.
You're built for the three point shot. I totally get it.
(31:47):
I I and I appreciate great shooting, but there's so
much bad shooting, and it's just volume shooting. And that's
the problem I have. Everybody stands around you may whip
it around the perimeter. That's all basketball has become, unfortunately,
or at least a lot of it has.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
Yes, Marvin, the Lakers at a backdoor cut in their
first game of the season, and I was ready to
give JJ Ready Coach of the Year.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
And it's only because I've watched great basketball being played.
I go back to the Portland Trail Blazers with Bill Walton.
That is the finest year I ever had watching basketball
because it was truly basketball with Walton, doctor Jack Ramsey,
their ability to transition, you know, fast breaking, back door cutting, passing,
(32:34):
they made the extra path like that's fun basketball, It's movement,
and I just thought it's the purest form of basketball
that I've seen in a long, long, long time. It
doesn't happen, but I know what it can be. I
don't know if it ever gets back to it. And
I'm slowly chiseling away at the You throw a fastball
and you try to hit a home run, and if
you don't hit a home run, you strike out. We're
(32:56):
getting movement in baseball. It's coming back and I like
that Play.

Oh my God, the Play of the Day.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
Oh my God, this is the play of the day.
Speaker 13 (33:21):
Check this out, crowd part of by George heard about
Kissburg turn shoots as less for fifty.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
He's not human, He's an alien. Oh another alien mentioned
Bamduel's Sports Network at your Play of the Day, brought

money off this today. If I said, who was the
youngest player in NBA history to have fifty points in
a game, Marvin, I'm going to start with you, Lebron,
(34:14):
He's second.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Paul, I'm gonna pull this one out of a weird spot.
Was it Brandon Knight for the Pistons when he's a rookie.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Ooh was so close. If this was Jeopardy, I would
have to say Marvin.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
He's right there. First name right, Brandon Jennings.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
Brandon Jennings, Bucks, Brandon Jennings. Oh, Brandon Jennings had fifty
five points. I'm confused. You did Lebron James, Ben Devin Booker,
then Victor wen Benyama, and then Lebron James. I was
going to say Kevin Garnett for some reason, but uh,
don't know if he's on the list there, But Victor
(34:52):
Wembnyama goes for fifty. That is your play of the day.
Pauli has a lightly interesting stat on Giannis here. It
is okay.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
Giannis this year is averaging thirty three point three points
per game, leading the league in scoring. He's only attempting
point eight threes per game. He doesn't use the three anymore.
Five years ago, after winning his first MVP, he bumped
it up and started jacking threes. He was taken five
a game, hitting about thirty percent, and over the next
couple of years he would shoot like three or four game,
(35:23):
always about twenty nine percent.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
It never hit.
Speaker 4 (35:26):
So the quick question is if he finishes the season
with thirty points in attempting one or few or threes
per game. When was the last time that happened a
player in the NBA thirty points per game less than one.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
To three attempted. Oh, Michael Jordan.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
No, but Michael Jordan did it thrice times. He's not
the last one. But Jordan did it three different times.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Okay, Marvin mm nah, how about a hint. It's at
least thirty years ago.
Speaker 7 (35:58):
Garnett just thirty years ago averaged thirty point yes, Mormon,
Dominique Wilkins No, Ellen Iverson No, Well that should be
the answer.
Speaker 6 (36:16):
Because his nickname is the answer.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yes, Todd, do you have an answer to you?
Speaker 6 (36:20):
I thought it was gonna be Jordan, a bird or Magic,
one of those guys. I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Eleven eleven, nineteen eighty nine. Karl the Mailman alone thirty
one ppg average one half of one three attempted per game.
Speaker 12 (36:34):
Okay, statu yeah, stop static, statup start static.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Oh but we're not done. We have an NBA quiz.
Do you have a quiz? That was the quiz off
the lightly interesting stuck?
Speaker 10 (36:51):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (36:51):
I thought you had a lightly interesting yannistat and an
NBA quiz I did? Was that all in one?
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (36:58):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Oh, okay quiz with Karmelo.
Speaker 10 (37:00):
Yes, time and Carl was mailing it in back then
you could have okay if you really wanted to.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
Lol, you're killing it today.
Speaker 13 (37:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
I thought Eminem was imminent.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
It's okay. I didn't hear it either. I thought he
said Eminem well.
Speaker 10 (37:15):
Continuing to get social media tweets, making sure we know
for sure that it's definitely imminent, is what the caller said.
Speaker 6 (37:20):
Okay, it's just like there's got to be like fifty
of these, are they? Okay?
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Yeah, all right, we made a mistake. Thank you, Mark
and Virginia. Hey, Mark, a second.
Speaker 15 (37:34):
Time, long time. I have a great idea for your
upcoming possible spring trip to Iowa. Okay, you do a
show from you do a show from the Field of Dreams,
and with all of the Danettes and the brgs, you
could do so many scenes from the movie, but you
have to do one scene where Fritzy is the little
(37:55):
girl that falls off the bleachers and gets hot Dog
stuck at his throat.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
All right, we'll take that under advisement. We're also trying
to go to the NFL Draft. It's at Lambeau. Oh,
we're trying to go to the NFL Draft. Any suggestions
out there? Who wants to host us?
Speaker 4 (38:18):
Oh, you're like like a trailer?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
No, no, no bar? Oh is there a bar that
wants to host the show? Like Thursday and Friday NFL
Draft at Lambeau? Yes, Seaton.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
So if I'm getting this correctly correct? Okay, so far
in twenty twenty five, what we have planned is a
road trip through Iowa, stopping at people's houses for dinner
every night, yes, and looking for people to host us
at the NFL Draft.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Well maybe a bar.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Oh okay, So you're not just talking houses, you're talking
businesses too.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Yeah, yeah, okay, I mean that the homes in Iowa
aren't hosting the show. They would just have us over
for dinner. And Lambeau we'd have a bar and then
we would do our show a couple of days there
and you could have people come in and watch the show.
We're bringing back drafts at the draft, yes, yes, Green
Bay is a perfect place drafts at the Draft. We'll
(39:10):
get Miller Light involved in that and then we'll take
the show on the road. Now, so we're going to
be doing the Super Bowl and then maybe taking a
tour of Iowa.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
Oh my gosh, this is at the super Bowl. You'll
go to New Orleans again.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
Yes, we are New Orleans. And then we'll try to
take a spin around Iowa and then we'll go to Lambo,
We'll go to Green Bay. That's what I'm hoping for.
Plan accordingly, but if somebody wants to host the show,
let us know, and then we'll let you know about
Iowa as well. I told the Danis this morning. I
(39:44):
don't know. I'm locked in on this. I made a
promise I'd like to go see Iowa.
Speaker 13 (39:49):
Now.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
I've been through Iowa. I've traveled through Iowa before, but
I haven't been to the college towns. And that's what
we're probably looking at here. Maybe a little little tour there.
All right, Uh, one hour in the books already. I
don't know what we accomplished, other than we came up
with a slogan, let's get stupid, and let's get stupid.
(40:12):
We can't even we didn't rehearse that. No, obviously, Ross
Tucker's going to join us. Ross is on the call
for tonight's Commander's Eagles game and Shaquille O'Neal will join
us in the final hour of the program, just getting started,
two more hours to go, the Minister of Humor killing
at hour one, Seaton Mark Pauli, yours truly back after
