Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's our one on this Tuesday, Dan and The Dan
Edge Dan Patrick Show. Fritzie is on fire today. From
the beginning, soon as I walked in the door, Fritzie says,
I got a song for you, And I said, all right,
and I thought it was you know when somebody says, hey,
I got a song for you to listen, he goes, no,
I got a song.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
I go, wait, You're going to sing another song? He is, yep.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
And then I walked down the hall. He was practicing
his song. By the ways, you tell us what it's about.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
It is about a week two weeks too late.
Speaker 5 (00:33):
But it came to me like four in the morning,
once again, one of those middle of the night things.
It's a song about Terry Bradshaw not loving Aaron Rodgers
coming to the Steelers, to the nineteen eighty four. Because
I live in the eighties, the Steve Perry song Oh Sherry,
which was a very popular hit in the eighties, this
is Oh Terry Okay, basically on Terry Bradshaw's not being
pleased with the whole Aaron Rodgers thing and how.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
That played out.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Okay, we'll get to that coming out. It's the previous
song went so well, another one. That's the point. It
didn't go well. The last song did well.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
It's everybody's fault because I didn't learn my lesson and
you guys continue to allow it.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
So you guys are enablers.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Oh I'm an enabler.
Speaker 6 (01:08):
You're an enabler.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Okay, all right, Rick exception to be lumped into that coup.
By the way, scene is not enabled.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
The host isn't now because Seaton usually throws himself in
front of the car.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Just say Todd, no, don't do it. But you do it.
And I've given up hope after twenty three years.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
That's fair.
Speaker 7 (01:25):
What we definitely needed today was another song about a
two week old topic.

I said, you know, I like playoff hockey I think
it's the best of all the playoffs, and it is
usually clean. In the postseason, there's no fighting, and then
all of a sudden, they dropped the gloves last night
and let's play the feud. The Panthers took advantage of
(02:14):
twenty one Edmonton penalties last night to win six'. One
in the last ten, years there have been four playoff
games with one hundred and forty or more penalty. Minutes
three of those, games three of the four have involved

Right eight seven seven THREE dp show email Addressdpat danpatrick
dot com twitter HANDLE A tp show Mentioned Ray. Allen
will this coming up a little bit later. On by the,
WAY i am not on social. MEDIA i just got On,
facebook WHICH i love to look at. Videos that's just
(05:12):
THAT'S i just got On facebook like six weeks, ago
AND i like to watch the videos. There its usually
a golf you, know an instructional video there to, help
or something from the, archives or music or you, know
whatever it might. Be and then all of a, SUDDEN
i see This lebron doesn't have the. Bag So i'm,
(05:34):
thinking wait a, minute is bag? Money BECAUSE i thought
when you get the, bag it's you get. Money and
then all of a, SUDDEN i said To, marvion can
you help? Me what does bag, MEAN i Thought lebron
has been well compensated in his, career.
Speaker 9 (05:50):
So you're almost. Correct he has the, bag which is the. Money,
OKAY a bag is short for a bag of, tricks
which means like your offensive.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Arsenal So lebron doesn't have a bag of? Tricks?
Speaker 9 (06:05):
Correct forty thousand points in quote unquote no.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Bag isn't that even more amazing that maybe he doesn't
have a bag of tricks or a go To you,
Know kareem had one trick in his bag and that
was the. Skyhook is anybody set AND i were talking about,
this has.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
There been a More.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I'm not gonna SAY i get, polarizing but it feels
LIKE i don't remember somebody being this great who's been
criticized this, much unless It's Tom. Brady but social media
is relentless On Lebron, james AND i keep thinking what
AM i missing? Here even when he wins a title
(06:49):
in the, bubble it's way he wanted it in the,
bubble which was a disadvantage For lebron and The lakers
because they would have had home court. Advantage, instead they
went to something you, know antiseptic as a, bubble and
he won a. Championship, oh he had to join create
The Big. Three he tried to get players to go To.
CLEVELAND i Think Chris bosh famously, SAID i didn't even
want to fly Over.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Cleveland he was gonna go To.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Miami but, man the you, know the talents come, out
the venom comes out when It's Lebron. James i'm just
surprised BECAUSE i can't remember somebody who has been criticized this.
Much AND i guess we have to look at the
social media era other Than Tom. Brady, oh he could
have done it Without. Belichick, okay he still did it With. Belichick.
Speaker 7 (07:36):
YEAH i think maybe the word is, disrespected, okay because
he's his. Accomplishment certainly speak for himself or. Themselves but
you know, it The lebron conversation is perfect for social
media because people are just editing clips of him not
really doing anything and turning the ball over and being
like greatest the ball, trash you, know and you're, like,
(07:59):
what that's not really. There that's one play in one
game of. Thousands AND i guess maybe it's a slow
time of the year for people while they wait for
football and they don't care about the other. Sports BUT
i was just surprised that a guy who has forty
thousand points doesn't have a signature.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Move they can do them, all which to me is.
REMARKABLE i, mean he does have a signature. Move Michael
jordan's on record of, saying If lebron got me on
his hip and he was going, RIGHT i can't stop.
Him so one of the greatest defenders of all time
on ball defenders of all time, says If lebron has
(08:39):
me on his, HIP i can't stop. Him, Okay, now
is he a great. Shooter, no he's a great. Scorer
but the bag of tricks is that he doesn't have
a trick in his. BAG i mean that's. Remarkable and
then you get forty thousand. Points and, yes AM i
(09:01):
A lebron apologist for the most.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Part, yes.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
DO i think it's closer between him And Michael. Jordan it,
Is but they're just. Different it's different eras they're different.
Players you know what one was required or asked to
do and what one was required or asked to.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Do it's just.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Different and, Yes michael didn't go to another team to
win a, championship but he Had Jerry krouse and nobody
brings up Without Jerry. Krouse michael doesn't win championships like.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
This he.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Doesn't Jerry crouse was incredible at bringing in talent to Surround,
michael And michael never Liked Jerry krouse THE gm and
he might not have liked him Because jerry was getting
credit for some of this And mike maybe didn't want to.
Share but they're incredible players Like KOBE i brought up
(09:57):
to the guys. Today you, Know magic gets short changed
as being one of the greatest players of all.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Time he is there With Larry.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Bird but if YOU i used to argue about how
Great magic was because when my point guard walks on
the floor In east sixty, NINE i got a distinct
advantage over, you whoever you put on. HIM i got
an incredible. Advantage how many players in the history of the,
game when they walk on the, floor all of a,
sudden you've got a, mismatch like a decided, advantage height,
(10:28):
advantage talent. Advantage And magic didn't you know he chose to.
Distribute he didn't Say i'm. Good he could have gotten
twenty five. Thirty but you, know we get caught up
in who's, great who's the? Greatest that guy's not. Great
and what we end up doing is we end up
criticizing more players than complimenting more. Players and that's where
(10:51):
it gets kind of discourage thing with. It AND i once,
again it just kind of stood, out AND i, go
where does this come?
Speaker 3 (10:58):
FROM i, Mean Skip.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Bayless made a career of every single day it felt
like Criticizing Lebron james and it's. Fake all we wanted
was reaction from you because he could get reaction because
if your answer Is Michael, Jordan you're going to win every.
Argument you, know it's the strength of going into an.
(11:23):
Argument you, go, yeah But i've got the trump, card
and That's i've Got Michael, jordan AND i just He's
Neil armstrong And lebron might be the second astronaut on
the moon, maybe But mike did, it and you, know Even.
Kobe If kobe did it Before mike did, it how
would we View. Kobe we'd be Like michael had, to you,
(11:45):
know Imitate. Kobe it's, unfortunate but we do that with great.
PLAYER i love an, argument BUT i love an argument
where you're discussing the greatness of. Somebody oh what Did lebron?
Do you never wanted to take the last. Shot two
Of michael's most famous moments Were John paxson And Steve
(12:06):
kerr because they were the right players at the right,
moment in the right spot to take the. Shot nobody
talks about. That you, know when The bulls won their
title against The, lakers magic was all. Banged nobody talks about.
That it's you, know we we. Edit you, know it's
convenient editing when it comes to sometimes when you're talking.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
About great, players great. Teams, Yes, marvin.
Speaker 9 (12:33):
You know A dp later, Today i'm going to go
to a barber shop and just, say, hey, Everybody, Oh,
marvion do you need? Haircut, Nope lebron's better Than, jordan
and then walk out and try to walk. Out there'd
be ten, guys, no, no, no come back. Here that's
like taking the pin off the grenade and just throwing.
Speaker 10 (12:51):
It.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah, YEAH i guess it shouldn't bother me BECAUSE i,
mean they're both all time. Greats been you, know one's
got three billion dollars and the other ones got a,
bill and like they're, okay they're. Fine but you, know
sometimes when you're. TALKING i saw where somebody was, saying,
(13:11):
hey who would you rather? Have Kevin durant Or Larry,
Bird AND i, go, okay is this?
Speaker 11 (13:18):
This this is?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Real, okay having a discussion about who would you rather?
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Have that's not that crazy of a, thought THOUGH i
know for some people it, is but it's it's not
that crazy of a.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Thought for.
Speaker 10 (13:33):
Me it.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Is, yeah, like would you, say, hey a team Or
Kevin durant and the answer nobody would have that, Argument,
hey would You Kevin?
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Durant?
Speaker 7 (13:43):
Chevin oh you Would no, way it came seven feet
tall draining. Threes hell, yeah The king might be the
best two way player in the history of the. Game
unbelievable defensive, player and he was unstoppable on.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Offense but, okay once, again but, YEAH i would take
IF i Take Larry.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Bird AND i had this argument the other, day, DISCUSSION
i should say six, years take the six best consecutive
years out of. Careers, now let's Take wilt out of,
it because those numbers are going to be video game.
Like but if you're looking at the best six years
of somebody's, career because that's a pretty good sample, size
(14:28):
it's not three where you're kind of, like, hey it
was good but only for three.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Years six?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Years would we change the, rankings all time rankings of basketball.
Players and it would be just show me your best.
Work this isn't, compiling this is just you and you,
know fellow, competitors what were you during your?
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Era AND i think that would be.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Fun maybe it's a you, know a homework project For
Bill simmons to work. On him And Ryan rossillo can
give me the six best years, together not.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Staggered it's six? Years and would WE i got off
on a tangent.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
Got a tweet that says it started with calling himself
the shows in one when someone self proclaims to be
the best before scoring a point in the, league a
target is on his. Back adding in divisive political rhetoric
that turns off half the, country and the target. Doubles
he chose to dish it. Out so we've returned the. Favor,
(17:06):
okay you can return the, favor but you also have
to acknowledge he lived up to the hype and then.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Some he's got forty thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Points so you might still have rhetoric that is negative
and you, tweet but you have to acknowledge the positive
here of the greatness and, yeah you're, right called himself
the Chosen. One came pretty, close lived up to, it
(17:36):
did pretty, well single family, home did a lot of great.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Things, yes marm Think.
Speaker 9 (17:44):
Sports illustrated call him the Chosen. ONE i know he
EMBRACED i know he embraced.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
It that was the. Cover BUT i don't. Know he
might have Had King. JAMES i don't.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Know IF i don't know what came, first S i
calling him the Chosen, one or he called himself the
chosen one Owner King, james or he certainly embraced. It
he didn't run away from, it but he lived up
to the, hype AND i think that's pretty remarkable and
what he's done business wise pretty. Impressive now you're not
factoring that in of who's the greatest player of all.
(18:16):
TIME i, Mean jordan wasn't a great, teammate And michael
left the game for whatever reasons for two, years.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Maybe to play.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Baseball SO i think being fair to the totality of these,
careers you, know there's there's a lot of, positives a
lot of, positives and yes there's, negatives but nobody talks
about Well michael Punched Steve. Kerr his, Teammate Steve kerr
is impossible to. Punch he's that. Nice but once, again
(18:48):
we tend to edit what we, see what we, think
what we, feel and what we saw on the. Court
but you, know it's not a bad career all said and.
Done if you would have said when he was on
the Cover Sports illustrated in high, school that guy's gonna
end up with forty thousand, points nobody would have believed.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
That, Yeah, puty we Had grant Wall, on the great
writer From Sports Illustrated soccer. Writer he came up the
name The Chosen one and worked with the editors At
Sports illustrated to give it to him for the. Cover
it did not come From, lebron according To Grant. Wall
so just to get the facts right on that self declared.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Nickname, Lebron james was on The mind The game podcast
and he talked about being accused of not having a.
Speaker 13 (19:33):
Bag Michael jordan wasn't out there driven a thousand, times you,
know to get to the spot and get to a
spot right and RAISE i got If i'm a bigger
than you AND i get you on my, SHOULDER i
get you on my. Hip i'm gonna use my. Size you,
KNOW i see it all the. Time it was, like you,
Know i'll be on social media Like lebron has no,
Bag like you.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Sent over here with what is?
Speaker 13 (19:53):
That lebron has no bag And i'm like a fifty
billion points.
Speaker 11 (19:57):
Right.
Speaker 14 (20:00):
No?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Bag That's Steve nash on The mind The game. Podcast
shack had no. Bag shack's bag was his. Physicality he
had no moves other than to lower his shoulder and
get you out of the.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Way that was. It but for some, Reason lebron is
right in the middle of that.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Dartboard people have no problem whatsoever coming after him and his.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Credentials, Yeah, Pauling you're.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Right lebron's bag is his physicality six, nine two seventy
and jacked with leaping, ability with dribbling, ability with good shooting,
ability just Like. Shack his his calling card is his uncoverable.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Physicality gary In tech almost like someone did choose him
to be.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Great gary In, Texas Hey, Gary Hey, dan how are you?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Great what's on your?
Speaker 8 (20:57):
Mind not, MUCH i wanted to. Comment i'm also A lebron,
disrespector SO i JUST i think he's an exceptionally good,
player BUT i don't give credit to the players that
are just outsizing and out out athleticism whatever everybody. Else
(21:24):
like for, Me shaq was, great but he didn't have
the skill set of say a, Team and for, Me
lebron is just a guy that if he wanted, to
he could just go steamroll everybody on the court and
score every point that wasn't. Skilled to, ME i value
skill a lot more than just some guy that's just
(21:44):
bigger he. Would to, me he's like a dad beaten
up out of middle school high school.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Basketball so a guy who's six nine fifty two sixty
who is one of the greatest passers in the history
of the game has nothing to do with so that,
skill that skill to see a, court and very few
have seen the court better Than Lebron. James SO i get, It,
(22:11):
Gary you think that he just uses his. Physicality, yeah
there's a lot of athletes in the history of their
sports who used their.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Physicality.
Speaker 7 (22:21):
Yeah, SEE i Think gary brings up a pretty good point,
though in that like a player like a chem was
able to overcome his deficiencies at the, physical his physical
deficiencies to become a great, player like overcoming being you
seven Feet yeah, Right, LEBRON i look at everything he's.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
Got he's not a guy like A. Keeame he just
did the best with what he's.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
GOT i, mean that's a true Somehow David robinson overcame
the fact that he was seven TO i.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Mean look at what he did with a seven to two.
BODY i mean That lebron could never do. That, kareem
how did he do?
Speaker 1 (22:58):
It saddled with that?
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Skyhook i'm an ali overcame, then.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Dang lebron later got a tattoo on his back that
read chosen, one the number.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
One as you, said he didn't shy away from the.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Entitle no he, didn't but he lived up to the.
HYPE i mean that was the thing With. Michael there
was no, hype not until he got into THE, nba
and then all of a sudden we kind of were
along for the ride with that.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Hype but he was viewed as a guy who could just.
Score he was a.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Highlight and then all of a sudden, realized do you
want to be the greatest of all? Time then you
got to have, team you, know players around.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
You and he.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Did the one thing THAT i think is so overlooked
underrated is he took less. Money he was making so
much money off the. Floor he took less. Money and
then they built that team around. Him they kept. Players,
now they were very good at interchangeable. Parts but you're
Finding Horace, grant you're Finding Tony kook coach Now John.
(24:07):
Paxson nobody Wants John, Paxson Steve, Kerr Craig, Hodges Bill,
Wennington Bill. Cartwright but they were the right pieces for that.
Team and he Found Phil. Jackson he played for the
greatest or you, know one of the two greatest coaches
of all. Time lebron didn't have that luxury of playing
(24:31):
for great. Coaches mike, Did shack And kobe Did aiden In,
Utah Hi, aidan what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Today?
Speaker 15 (24:46):
Yeah AND i got to Defend, lebron, Right. Greick So
i'm one of your younger. Listeners, Right i've never watched
THE nba Without lebron in. It so to, me he is, undeniably,
undoubtedly he's the greatest player THAT i have ever. SEEN
i can't for me to say That jordan's better than
him by just Watching jordan highlights on YouTube would be.
(25:08):
Insane the problem is everybody older than me to See
jordan will never let go of. That don't, ever don't
ever admit That jordan that somebody could possibly be vitter Than,
jordan Because, jordan in their, eyes is Like.
Speaker 14 (25:22):
Jesus.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Well, Also michael never missed a shot until you go
back and realize That.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
Michael did miss.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Shots but we build up this folklore and we go you,
Know michael never miss. Shot, okay he. Did he had
bad games, too believe it or, Not you had bad.
Games but, LOOK i was fortunate to be able to
watch those, games certainly THE Nba, finals and you know
(25:52):
you're watching something you had not seen. Before, absolutely, positively
DO i Think kobe Was michael? Offensively? Yeah better, shooter
But mike was going to take it to the. Hoop you,
Know kobe had mid. Range kobe could have been a
great three point. SHOOTER i, mean he would put in
(26:13):
the time to be whatever he needed to. Be he
wanted to Be mike and came pretty. CLOSE i don't
know who's coming close to Being Lebron. JAMES i don't
think there's anybody right now where you. Go that guy
could get forty thousand. Points that guy could be top
ten and assist and, steals a very good, rebounder become
(26:37):
a better than average three point, shooter and he. Plays
he's avoided. Injuries the durability has to factor in as.
Well AND i brought this. UP i don't know if
it was last, year but IF i, said If i'm an,
owner AND i can have somebody who's going to give
(26:59):
me twenty two years of great, basketball quality basketball playing
all the, time wanting to play all the, time OR
i get somebody who's gonna play fifteen years or fourteen,
years but the last couple of years aren't going to
be very.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
Good So i'm gonna get fifteen.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Years but Really i'm getting maybe eleven great years out
Of Michael. Jordan, now If i'm a, Businessman i'm an,
owner DON'T i want the guy who's gonna give me
twenty two?
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Years?
Speaker 2 (27:28):
Right it'd be like, Saying i'm going to Take Larry
bird Over. Lebron But larry's only going to give me
about eight quality, years great, years unbelievable, Years hall of.
Fame lebron's giving me twenty. Two this argument will, continue
(27:48):
it'll withstand the test of time because there's Nothing michael's
going to do that he needs to add to his.
Resume and the only Thing lebron could do is maybe
win a. Championship and if he, does you know what
they're going to, Say, well they Needed luca to win the, championship, yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
PULLING i THINK nba players in the past twenty years
are an unwinnable situation with the older generation because when
you compare the game of the eighties and, nineties it
felt like there was an intensity that's not there. NOW
a load management had not been, invented eighty two games was,
expected and those days are never coming. Back so it's
almost like there's a cloud over the past twenty years
(28:28):
of basketball players that they all are in the same
boat of not being the, eighties tough, guy play every game,
style and so that puts them behind the eight ball in.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Comparison, yeah they're just people who are never going to Embrace.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Lebron and it might be because, of you, know opinion
stories on the. Periphery maybe there's political things that he's talked.
About he does comment on too many, things and it's
almost like people, go, Hey, lebron are you going to
comment on? This you don't have to comment on. Everything
tiger And michael. Didn't they famously didn't do anything politically
(29:10):
and they were criticized for.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
That they're.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Businessmen when it came down to do you have a?
Voice they chose not to have a. Voice they were
business people And lebron is as. Well but he has
has had a. Voice he has said, something whether you
agree with it or. Not but this started with just
a social media discussion That lebron didn't have a bag
(29:34):
and that's WHY i said To, marvin can you interpret?
This and he said, no he doesn't have a bag
of tricks AND i was, like but he scored forty thousand, points, Yes.
Speaker 9 (29:45):
Marvin and on top of, that we use to, me
we use the forty thousand point measuring stick way too
much because he was great at thirty thousand. Points people
were talking about him because it wasn't, like, oh he's
just been doing it for a long. Time, no, no, No
he's been, great like a top five, player if not
the best player in the game for a long. Time
There's Michael jordan's six, Years lebron six, years birds six.
(30:08):
Years there's some six year runs where it's, like you
see these, numbers how come these guys have six STRAIGHT Mvp.
Awards SO i think the longevity discussion kind of Hinders lebron's.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Greatness michael In chicago not The michael In, chicago or is?
Speaker 8 (30:25):
It?
Speaker 11 (30:26):
No what's?
Speaker 2 (30:27):
That?
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Oh, OKAY i thought it might have Been. Jordan all.
Speaker 11 (30:30):
RIGHT i only golf with them one. Time BUT i
just wanted to say that your earlier, caller it was.
Speaker 10 (30:38):
Kind of right about how people.
Speaker 11 (30:40):
My age sixty three years old just you, know aren't
gonna let go Of. Jordan AND i remember when you
Had Joel montana on the show one, time and this
was AFTER i Think brady.
Speaker 3 (30:51):
Won can you turn down YOUR tv or radio, There mike.
Speaker 16 (30:56):
Hold, On, Okay i'm, SORRY i didn't should put it
on a, mute and he, SAID i don't know what
it's like to go to a Super bowl and, Lose,
Yes AND i thought that was like a great. Comment
AND i think About jordan went to a finals and
never went to a seventh. Game they closed everybody, out
ye knowing Six.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yeah, YEAH i, Mean i'm Sure Joe montana has changed
his tune About Tom brady that, Yes tom went and.
Lost tom played maybe the greatest game for a quarterback
and a losing effort against The eagles that when you
throw for five hundred yards or they don't know if they,
(31:37):
punted but you, know they ended up losing That Super.
Bowl but, yes Did. Lebron lebron got to THE Nba
finals and he dragged That cavaliers team to THE Nba.
Finals that might be as remarkable as anything he did
(31:58):
in his. Career BECAUSE i was at THAT Nba finals
and they had no chance against The.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Spurs, None Not Booby.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Gibson, no they had guys who wouldn't make The spurs.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Team Sasha, Pavlovich, yeah Big.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
Z Danielle, marshall So drunis, Algoskas Eric, Snow Eric snow
the FACT i KNOW i Know Eric.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
Snow, yes Bony.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Tom brady versus The eagles in That Super. Bowl they
lost forty one thirty Three brady twenty eight forty, eight
five oh, five three, touchdowns no. Picks and speaking of supporting,
cast if you Remove, grenkowski his supporting cast Was James,
White Deon Lewis rexburg Had Chris, Hogan Danny. Amendola those
are not superstars of nice players.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
When when your starting receiver is known more for playing
lacrosse than he is football And Chris, hogan, yes Mart.
Speaker 9 (32:59):
Tom brady has SOME o Seven cavs teams that got
he got to The Super bowl where it's like who's this? Guy,
YEAH i mean shout Out David patton And David, gibbons all,
right those were not household. Names, no and he lost
The Super bowl with the best receiver he ever.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Had, NO i, Know Marandy moss, ALRIGHTY i don't know
what we've accomplished the first forty, minutes but maybe we
got you riled up.
Speaker 7 (33:21):
Today yes, see THAT'S i do love The Tom brady
criticism of you, know he only did that because Of. Belichick, Belichick,
yeah a defensive minded head, coach like they won Every
Super bowl six to. Three you, know And belichick wanted
to make sure he had a great. Defense and then
it was, Like i'll leave the offense To. Tom somebody
else do.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
That, Yeah, Tom i'll let you.
Speaker 7 (33:42):
Run the only won those games Because belichick is a.
Speaker 3 (33:44):
Genius.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Yeah and Then tom took everything he learned From belichick
and took that To tampa and that's why they won
The Super bowl down.
