Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio. It's hour two on this Tuesday, Hard Knocks Tonight.
Preseason games. On Thursday, we were wondering, what's the first
image of Hard Knocks Tonight. What's the first who's the
first person? What's the first image? Is it an image?
(00:22):
Is it going to be a sprinkler going off? Is
it going to be Robert Salah pulling up to the
facility at four forty two in the morning, Aaron Rodgers
coming in with his aviator glasses on, sauce gardener is
gonna show up? What's it going to be? I still
think it's gonna be Robert sala One light on in
(00:43):
the building and then you get the exterior shot. Either
that or it's gonna open up on a sprinkler. It
just feels like, I think by sprinkler needs a little
work there. It was cutting down a little bit. See
(01:05):
can you give me a sprinkler? There? You go? Still
not working that well, Todd, Tod, can you give me
a sprink.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Have to say anything?
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I felt the sprinkling before.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
If I had a friend who was in the front
row and said, uh, they got they got wet. There
was there was some spit going there, but I think
that happens. I've been to a Broadway show where oh
I saw Hamilton by the Way original cast and we
were in the front row and we were getting showered
(01:43):
there during the performance.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Yes, earlier or later in a little last hour, Dan,
you had mentioned why would Nebraska be excited if Rutgers
came to town? Somebody suggesting because Nebraska would actually get
a win. Whoa shots fired and both connections on that one.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Well done, got a new coach there, new direction and
eight seven seven three DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot
com Twitter handle a DP show Little League World Series
going on. I always love when they do the interviews
with the kids and then they get to tell us
something about them, and I thought it'd be fun if
Fritzy came up with some fake world series Little League
(02:18):
World Series kids and some of the things that they like,
movies they like, or action heroes or their favorite snack,
those kind of things.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
Yes, Paul oh so East Kid comes up, and Andrews,
I'm Timmy Smith, second Baseman, Yes, South Carolina.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Yes, I love corn Chips, Chris Berman and I love
Gilmore Girls. Todd, do you Gilmore. I know, second morning,

Speaker 6 (02:50):
Peacock Gilmore fellas never really took off, did it?
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I know, I know. Why didn't we have the Gilmour guys.
By the way, we came up with a fictitious university.
What's it called? Crappensburg State, Seaton, Crappensburg State. Okay, t shirt, Yes,
you know who the first opponent for Crappenburg State would be?
Not Georgia's I suggest, No, it would not be p No,

What's the poll question today? And then I'll get to

Speaker 6 (03:32):
Oh dear, we have up there, Dan right now?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
College football should have one commissioner for all our independent
commissioners right now, seventy one commissioner.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
By the way, start your engines for the upcoming Peacock
original Twisted Metal. The high octane comedy based on the
classic video game series, follows a motor mouthed outsider on
a mission across the post apocalyptic wasteland. Twisted Metal streaming

I know Fritzie's got some passive aggressive ones.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I had a couple very excited about a bunch of things.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, okay, go ahead, Tom.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
What's your excitement level for hard knocks with the Jets tonight?
I simply cannot wait. I'll probably watch a good amount.
We'll take a peek or nah, not interested.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
In Okay, Yeah, I'll take a peek. I'm always curious
about how these things, but I'm looking at more of
the structure of it, of how they put it together.
That's always interesting. With the storylines. I still think Zach
Wilson is a great storyline. Under the tutelage or mentorship
of Aaron Rodgers. I like that. But there's always going
(04:38):
to be that guy that you had no idea who
he was. You fall for his story. He's probably got
a wife who is pregnant. He's trying to make the team,
and you know, he's twenty seven years of age and
this is his last chance before he goes into the
insurance business or whatever it might be. He also plays
the guitar I get, and he has a poodle named Sally,
(05:02):
and you're gonna go God, they can't cut that guy.
He's awesome. Wait can he play. Oh, I don't know, yes, Mark.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
And your heart sinks when they miss a tackle. Oh,
it is one of those and they know it and
you know it. Yeah, Like, I'll bring in your playbooth.
Don't even finish the game.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
What are the other poll questions that you have there?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
If the remaining PAC twelve schools are absorbed by other conferences,
I will be very upset. I might briefly shake my
head in dismay and move on, which I encourage the
second one for most people, for your.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Mental health, anything else that you have.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Do you feel lucky when the day and month on
the calendar are the same number, like August eighth.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Today eight eight?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Of course? Who doesn't or what?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
No, why would you feel lucky?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I don't know. Just something cool about it's eight eight.
Maybe it's because my birthday's ten to ten. Whatever it is,
the day and month of the same It's like, you
know what, today's gonna be an extra fun or special
day because the day and month of the same number.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
All right, you know what, Let's talk about this tomorrow
as to what happened today and if it's lucky for anybody? Okay, Like,
are you getting lucky.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
As a tenor Todd.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Do you feel a certain kinship with a nine to
niner and an eight etor I do, actually, and.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I feel like I really like my birthday. I liked
that that was one of the tenth day to tenth months,
like Brett fav nineteen sixty nine. So I roll with that.
I could roll with that.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Do you want to give me some of your mock
little leaguers?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I can do that. Okay, Okay, this is a lineup.
I have one for every position. These are fake people
with fake likes and dislikes. But here we go.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Okay. Don't know if we need every position.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
But okay, if you like it as it goes along,
continue or you can shut it up.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Okay, Stevie th that's good.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Stevie Thurman's nine year old second basement likes coloring books, Pringles,
potato chips, and Derek Bell of all people, I found
that interesting.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Guys, we're played very dated or very dated with your ass.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Mitchell Ran, an eight year old left fielder, enjoys Oreo,
double stuff, cookies, sticker books, and Clay Buckholtz. How about that.
Andrew Tobias is a ten year old catcher. He likes
you who chocolate, action drinks, Pokemon cards and Bombo rivera
interesting they can play for the twin maybe the Angels
back in the day. Sammy Rowse, eleven year old shortstop
appreciates a good prank, fruity pebbles and Dave concepts ay
(07:07):
and because he plays shortstop too.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
I know, but can you get out of the seventies
and eighties.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
From the try? Lawrence Chapman, nine year old third baseman.
Favorites include frozen pizza and tutsie rolls. He's afraid of
snow globes. That's hod.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
He doesn't have a favorite player.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
No, okay, it's not. Everyone has a favorite player. Barry Nathanson,
ten year old right fielder likes cream soda, donkey Kong,
and has a crush on his baby Sally. Oh boy,
he's gonna be embarrassed. Show Sal Hoag's nine year old
first baseman can't get enough Big League two, bubble yum
and razzles. Allergic to sunflower seeds. Not give the kid, sus.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I think the best part of this are the names
that you made up.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Tony Burnbaum, twelve year old picture eats creams. He's out
of the container like it's yogurt, has an aversion to
blow pops. What what is it like? Blow pops?
Speaker 7 (07:54):
The Gumman flood a nine year old name Lawrence. He's
got to be named after somebody. He's got to be
like Lawrence whatever? The fourth?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
All right? What else?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
There's two more left. Stewart Pagnucci, ten year old, ten
year old designated hitter likes pizza but without sauc or
cheese on it. Collects superhero underrews. Yo Yo is given
panic attacks. Yoyo is given panic attacks.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
They're all fictitious.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Yeah, and Seth Cushman, eleven year old center fielder. He
likes to dress up as Taylor Swift. Addicted to gummy bears,
has become incritically more uncomfortable around his goldfish, who tells
him to do.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Things not have mental issues.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Man, that's messed up.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
It is a little weird. It is that Proumser's goldfish
who tells him to do things.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
And I told you to do that, and you had
about fifteen minutes to put all that together.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
I like the kid that he's cream cheese right out
of the container like yogurt. That can't be healthy. He's
a little eager as an Aflee.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
What are you doing?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Light creamcheese? Supposed we will.
Speaker 7 (08:48):
Beth Cushman.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
That's a good one. Seth Cushman. Are these people you
grew up with?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
I grew up with a Glenn Cushman, a Frank pagan Uccie.
Change it up a little bit. Dad Nathan's is the
exact name of a kid who was on one of
my baseball team. All right, the others are completely made up.
Speaker 8 (09:02):
All right?
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Tom Jeremy and Alabama. Hi Jeremy, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (09:09):
Hey Dan, I'm going to get into this real quickly.
Number one, your fictations college their first bowl game. They'll
play in the charm and Soft Bowl. Okay, I'm gonna
give you a Seaton answer that I feel like for
this whole regional thing. H Is it just the fact
that it's so simple of an answer to solve the
(09:32):
problems for volleyball and others that these conference, the presidents
and all these got to make it look difficult just
so they can keep their jobs. And if somebody can
tell me everybody's shirt size, because I've got some merchandise
to send y'all because I want y'all to have shirts.
But actually fit.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Oh wait, who doesn't have a shirt that fits?
Speaker 10 (09:56):
Now?
Speaker 9 (09:56):
When people send y'all shirts and stuff into the studio
and everything, they always send you all like eight extra largest.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah that's true. Yeah, okay, why don't you just send
larges and an extra large? Thank you, Jim. Yeah, I
didn't know if we, you know, had this slovenly demeanor here.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Yeah, I saw this T shirt company keeps popping up
on social media. It's for kind of dads and forty
and fifty year old guys, or at hide your belly.
Yeah yeah, and a market has said instead of working out,
instead of trying to get in shape, just wear one
of these shirts.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
My wife thinks I lost fifteen pounds.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
Yeah, my wife thinks I've been at the gym for
two months. My buddies all think I'm jacked. But it's
the same guy just wearing a more I guess blousey
shirt or better fitting.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Is there a way to create a T shirt that
would have abs in it underneath it?
Speaker 6 (10:52):
I mean spanks are a thing, right, Why not?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Well that's todd big on that.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Just make it tight on your make the shirt tight
on your arms and chest, and have a lot of
room in the stomach area, and then everybody would look.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
At that's what this shirt I'm talking about it.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
They market it towards showing off your shoulders and arms
if you have them, and even if you don't, and
then a little more breathing room.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Chest down.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Perfect.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
But couldn't you do something that compression wise that you're
you would see the imprint of abs through the shirt,
but it wouldn't be your real abs because you wouldn't
have them.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Isn't that kind of false marketing for the ladies?
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Like you're? Well, ladies do some false marketing too.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
I've been the victim of that.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
You have.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Oh yeah, the push up?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Oh, the push up brawl.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Yeah, we've all been faked out by the push up.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
What happens when they want to touch your abs or
lift your shirt? I got to see this.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
No, oh, there's one.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Ab, not six?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Where's the tube top? Though? You know, I grew up
in an era when we had the tube top. I
should never have gone away or the halter top. Yeah, okay,
let's see Seth and Iowa, Hi, Seth? What's on your
mind today?
Speaker 10 (12:04):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (12:04):
Dan, I got a dark horse for the hard Knocks opening.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Okay, all right, let me hear.
Speaker 11 (12:10):
Joe Thomas introducing Aaron Rodgers at the press conference, and
then it's going to cut to the opening credits.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Okay, Yeah, but they always love natural sound. They bring
it in whenever I would do a story. If I
was doing a story, when I was reporting, I love
nat sound. Natural sound. There'd be something that you just
wanted it. You know. It could be a stream where you
just hear the water. It could be in any kind
(12:38):
of noise that you go even, you know, like a
car horn, anything that you could start without it being traditional.
Well not maybe that, but I'm thinking maybe you get
a sprinkler, although they've gone to the sprinkler a little
too often there. Yeah. See, No, I don't I don't
(13:03):
think that. That sounds like somebody's in trouble.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Yeah, someone's in trouble. Oh, here comes Aaron Ryan from Manhattan.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Yeah, it's a jet coming in on a helicopter.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
That's perfect, a jet coming in on a helicopter.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I think it's good. I think I could help hard
knocks here. I think I.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Wouldn't it be wild if Lev Shriver didn't agree to
do it. Uh, And he was just like, no, I'm
picketing and they just used Ai to do his voice anyway.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
And like totally proved the whole point.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
Of the strike. Wow anyway, sorry, side well wow, sidebar.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah. Uh Danny in New Mexico. Hi Danny, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 11 (13:51):
First time, long time, five ten, one sixty five. I
just had a little uh well event photo for Fritzy.
It happened to be my birthday. I don't need you
guys to sing to me, but I was born in
nineteen eighty so I turned eight on eight eighty eight.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
That's fantastic. How so?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
How so? What? How so? Is it fantastic just because
of the new morolegy?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah? I just love anything with numbers that kind of
maybe mean something to somebody. You can play around with
them and make it mean whatever you want. That's kind
of cool.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Well, congratulations. I guess Danny that the question.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Is is he having a good life or was that?
Was it lucky? Is he having lucky experienses around these
eight numbers?
Speaker 1 (14:36):
I don't know. Isn't eight a great number?
Speaker 2 (14:39):
It's a fantastic member.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
But doesn't it have special designation? Is it infinity?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Some people would say eight is enough.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
In the Jewish community, is an age eighteen O eight.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Eighteen hi, which is a very high ithai hi, very
good luck number the number eighteen.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So that would be Peyton Manning be big in the
Jewish community.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Super Bow fifty champions never broken.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
Okay, lucky for time.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
There you go, lucky for me. Now that wasn't just
the two lway ones. We got that third one because
of number eighteen. Well because of the defense.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yes, not because of eighteen.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
But no fly zone got us the third one.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Yeah, that's true. Let's see anything else that needs to
be mentioned here. We're going to talk about the Orioles
who were playing great baseball suspended their broadcaster. I don't
even think he was the play by play guy. He
was the pre and postgame host. He got suspended. The
Angels lose again, the Yankees lose, Aaron Boone lost his bleep.
(15:36):
Why do grown men do that? We allow it in baseball.
You know he's out there on his knees. He like,
you're going, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Once you start doing like impersonations out there, that's where
you might have gone a little far.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
But it's because you have a uniform on, right. If
he was had a three piece suit on. Managers used
to wear a suit in time back in the day.
But you know you got your your spikes and your
hat and your uniform. Yeah see, I.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Think it's less about the uniform and more about the stadium.
Like there's manager's Aaron Boone was so demonstrative when he
was talking.
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Nobody throws their arms around like that, Nobody rings them
out like he.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
I think he's just putting on a performance. It was
more like WWE than anything else. It was embarrassing, super
embarrassing it was. And then he was wrong.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
He went out there to argue a call balls and strikes,
and even the Yankee announcers that, uh, he was wrong there,
but you know what a strike.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
I think the only thing actually that would have made
it weirder is if he was in a suit.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
If he walked out there in a suit, I would
be like, what is this guy? But he wouldn't. Why
we don't allow this in any other sport where you
get to go out there and stop the game, turn
your hat around, get right in the umpire's face, throw dirt,
all that stuff, but we allow it in baseball. Remember
when lou Penella picked up a base and threw it
(17:04):
into the outfield I remember having him on. I said,
what do you think your kids thought? He goes, Oh,
they are embarrassed. Yes, like you're a grown man. You're
out there. It's about the kids.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
Yeah, pulling Boone's out there for like four minutes too.
Why isn't there a clock on him? Why isn't there
an injection clock that says you could walk out and argue.
You get thirty seconds to make your case. Then we
got to run this, run this back.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Well, we have a pitch clock. Yeah, hitter's clock. Argument clock, Yeah,
argument clock. State your case, yes, Todd, I.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Like the argument clock. Get to the point. What have
you got to You want to cover up a whole
plate with third throw, all the equipment on the field,
whatever it is. But you got that window and then
get the heck out of here. I think it's great.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Somebody else needs a clock. Oh whoa, whoa, Land the plane,
as I always tell Todd, Todd, land the plane, half
and half of that booger. McFarlane from the Mother's ship

the NFL and college football. Give me the storyline that
(19:56):
you're interested in with hard Knocks and the Jets debuting.
Speaker 10 (20:02):
Just to see how much they're gonna show us DP.
I think we're all fascinated with the fact that Aaron
Rodgers is in New York, the expectations, the defense that
think it just gets my offense now he comes in.
I think Aaron Rodgers is one of the people in
the National Football League that's very intriguing because he thinks
differently than most people do, and so I think everyone
(20:24):
is wondering, are we going to get a sneak peep
under the hood at the process that makes him go,
or are we going to get any insightful things from
his perspective. I think, you know, everybody kind of knows
Sauce Gardner and he's flashy in the defense, and Robert
Sala and kind of the makeup. But I think Aaron
Rodgers is the reason that everybody's going to tune in
(20:45):
to see if they get a sneak peek at what
makes this guy go. Because the little that we've gotten
on Pat McAfee on their Tuesday interview, I think has
us all very very curious just to know more.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Pair training camp for a veteran to a rookie.
Speaker 10 (21:06):
You know that that's one way to look at it.
I think I'll break it down even further. Training camp
for a veteran, you know what to expect, You understand
what your role is usually coming into camp because a
veteran player is kind of already established.
Speaker 12 (21:23):
You know.
Speaker 10 (21:23):
The rookie, especially the rookie first rounder, has some of
those same sentiments, but you don't really know because you're
trying to figure out what's gonna be my role. Everybody's
gonna be looking at me because you're a new player.
So even when even when you're doing a rep, everybody's
gonna be paying attention to the rookie or the new guy,
just to see what they can do. Because football is
a collision sport. Man, it's played with pads on. Like
(21:43):
all the stuff we've done up until now has been
cool to run around in shorts and look good and
post Instagram and TikTok videos. But when the pads go on,
there's a legitimate feeling that you could get your head
knocked off. And that's when the game of football is played.
So for a veteran, it's it's kind of re establishing
who you are. For a rookie, you gotta let everyone
know where you come from. And then to the point
(22:05):
that I was making to go a little further, training
camp now is so different than it was when I played.
So my first training camp I held out for two
days and the very first day I got there, we
were in full pads. It was full pads in the morning,
full pads in the afternoon. Well here's the deal, DP,
Now they got this thing they called an acclimation pid.
I'm not sure what the hell it means, because it's
(22:26):
going to be hot regardless, but you got to acclimate
to the heat and acclimate the football. The same thing.
We've been playing for fifteen years, so it's so much
easier now. Like these guys can't go full pass back
to back, they can't go full pads. The first five
or six days. It's really not training camp. It's more
of a kind of get together, let's hang out for
(22:47):
a couple of weeks, and we're going to practice once
every other day and try to get this thing figured out.
So it's so much different between rookie and veteran. And
it's also so much different between now and then.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Was it ever personal with you with a quarterback that
you didn't like, No, Like.
Speaker 10 (23:08):
It was more personal with me with the guy that
I went against across from me. Like I used to
have to line up against guards, and like, when you're
a defensive tackle going against an offensive lineman, you're really
never gonna get a lot of one on one block,
so it's always gonna be double teams. And it used
to bother me. I'm like, so these dudes are professional,
they get paid a lot of money, but they can't
(23:29):
individually block me one on one every single play. So
like that really used to tick me off. Just the
inherent nature of the position I played and how the
offensive lineman would block us, would really kind of rub
me the wrong way. But quarterbacks doing their job, man, Like,
I didn't like any of them, especially the ones that
got rid of the ball quick Brady Manning, those guys
(23:50):
that didn't hold a football. You love going against a
guy that was a bomb, a guy who held the football.
Because you do, it's a good good day for you.
But overall, like, quarterbacks are who they are.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
But who's the lineman you you really personally hated.
Speaker 10 (24:05):
Kevin Gogan was one, Larry Allen was another one.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
But were they cheap shot earnersts? Like what would make
you hate that guy that? It wasn't just it was
it became personal.
Speaker 10 (24:20):
Well it was personal because of the position. As I stated,
Gogan was a cheap shot guy. Like I think it's
been really documented some of the chief shots that he
took and some of the dirty play that he had.
You know. Todd Stusey was another guy. Guys that just
got under your skin. Like there's there's this thing in
the NFL talk about playing to the echo of the whistle. Well,
(24:42):
some offensive lineman would do that and they would give
you a little nudge, a little chief shot. Listen, big guy,
you had three and a half seconds to block men,
you couldn't do it. And so now after the player
you want to give me a little nuts like, and
they do it just to get under your skin. So
but yeah, I don't like any of them, man, just
because I mean, these dudes are big, they're usually bad built,
(25:02):
and they always need help to do their job.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Talking to Booger McFarlane, two times Super Bowl champ and
analysts for ESPN NFL in college football, had Jamar Chase say,
if Joe Burrow's not one hundred percent, he wouldn't have
a problem with him maybe sitting out the first five
games of the regular season. I know that they don't
have great competition in four of those five games, but
(25:26):
you're still playing the Browns and Ravens to start off
your season. Your thoughts on trying to protect Joe Burrow
for as long as you can.
Speaker 10 (25:34):
Well, I completely agree, because with the Joe Burrow, they
can win the Super Bowl. Without him, they're just a
middle of the pack team. And so fortunately time you
know right now, they had a gift the time. It's
what augusty eighth, they don't play a meaningful game for
over a month. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't
see Joe Burrow in the practice field until wednsday of
(25:54):
game week. He doesn't need to be out there. Yeah,
he might be a little rusty, but I'd rather have
Joe Burrow rusty for game one then to come back
too early and re injo that and now he starts
missing a significant part of the season. Even if he's
got to miss the first game or two, I'm still
fine with that. Like it's a seventeen game season over
the course of eighteen weeks. I think his sentiment that
(26:17):
I don't want to see Joe Burrow back until he
is as healthy as possible is one that a lot
of people in that organization share.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Dalvin Cook still out outside looking in, Zeke Elliott on
the outside looking in. Is this an anomaly or do
you think this is going to be a growing trend
in the off season in years to come.
Speaker 10 (26:38):
Yeah. I think the running back position, as we talked about,
is bend value. I think that you're going to see
a lot of the veteran running backs that want a
lot of money, they're gonna have to kind of wait
until some team kind of bits like it's supplying demand.
So if I got a guy that I drafted in
the third or fourth round that I feel can do
the same job or just as good a job as
(27:00):
a guy like Davin Cook or Ezekiel Jelly, why am
I going to go out and pay you know, seven
eight million for even one of those guys. And so
I think for Dalvin Cook and Zeke Jellett, they're both
going to be on opening day rosters. I think they're
both going to play a vital role with some team.
I think Dalvin Cook has more juice left in the
tank four straight seasons over a thousand yards. He's only
(27:20):
twenty seven years old. Think about that, VP Think about
if somebody told you at twenty seven you were no good.
Like at twenty seven, I wasn't even stretching. I just
touched my toes and got it, went to work. And
now at twenty seven they're saying that these guys are
kind of washed up. So it's a very very difficult
predicament to be in. I do think Dalvin Cook is
(27:42):
going to be a starter at some point in this league.
He's just got too much juice left in the tank.
But I kind of feel for Zeke though, because if
Zeke doesn't go to maybe Dallas. I know New England
has kind of brought him in. Like where does Zeke go?
And how much money is he gonna have to settle for?
At some point they're gonna have to swallowed their pride.
Zeke I think and say, Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna
(28:03):
go play for a one year deal for I don't
know two or three million bucks, which is a far
crop from what Jerry paid him in doubts.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
How much do you think you would earn now if
you were picking LSU?
Speaker 10 (28:15):
Oh? Wow, a lot of money, because.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Well, what's the going rate for a defensive tackle?
Speaker 10 (28:23):
Well, I think the going rate for a five star
defensive tackle probably I don't know, probably probably a million
bucks a year at least. I mean, think about that.
Think about that. DP I was. I was a three
fourth star guy coming out of Louisiana, and my first
two years at LSU there were several several weekends where
(28:45):
I had five bucks to my name, The training table
wasn't open, and I was eating ramen noodles in Chinese
food all weekend. Now, these guys got a million dollars
in the bank. Uh, they're the toast of the town,
and they're getting that in high school, not in college.
Like these guys are being paid in high school once
they commit to shut down the recruiting until signing day,
(29:06):
and then once you get to the school of your chores,
you're getting paid even more money. So I was born
just a little bit too early, but I don't envy
these guys, because more money comes more problems. And when
I got to the NFL at twenty one, I didn't
really understand that statement, but I quickly learned that the
more money I got, the more headaches came. So I
can only imagine what these kids at seventeen are dealing
(29:28):
with when they got a million bucks in the bank.
They're seventeen years old and they got to go to school.
Oh by the way, you're still seventeen and you're a kid,
but now you got to deal with the issues that
twenty one year old adults have to deal with. I
don't envy that at all.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Who's kind of better Louisiana accent? You were, Brian Kelly.
Speaker 10 (29:47):
Well, I'm a country boy from Louisiana, so my accent
is really kind of not really Southern and not really Cajun,
so I could really teach BK a little bit about
how to get it a a little better. Although here's
what I will say. I will give him credit for trying.
I will give him credit also for acknowledging that he
(30:08):
was terrible. But all jokes is out. He's been exactly
what LSU is needed, which is an adult in the room,
somebody that can be a CEO type of a major
powerhouse program. And we'll see what he does with expectations.
Tien wins year one, we'll see what he does in
year two with the preseason ranking of number five.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
But he didn't have to give an accent. You don't
have to if I if I go down to Louisiana,
I don't all of a sudden, you know, start talking
and we haven't even won all of our games.
Speaker 10 (30:37):
Yes, but I mean he really sounded like a Louisiana
guy from nineteen fifty, you know, putting on the smoker's jackie,
grabbing a cigar, sitting on the front porch. So if
he really wanted to do it, he should have picked
up a bowl of crawfish attofe and just kind of
start using that French Cajun cuisine.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Great to tell you, to you, Booger. Hope you're doing well.
Hope the golf game is good.
Speaker 10 (31:04):
DP. I'm doing great, man, the golf game is excellent.
I'm enjoying life. Ready for football season to start, man.
And this year, here's one promise I can make you.
I will make a meat Friday. Because we've been talking
about this for several years, I will make a meat
Friday this year.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Me know what you want. You let me know what
you want, and then we'll cook it on the tragger grill.
Speaker 10 (31:27):
I'm looking forward to sausage, beef, brisket, okay, and maybe
just a little bit of uh, maybe just a little
bit of fry tip.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Okay, we can do that for you. Just give me,
give me advanced notice here, like a day or so,
and then we'll cook it up. We'll do buddy, all right,
thank you, Booger. Yes, point, I bet he can get
after it. Yeah, I would think.
Speaker 10 (31:48):
So.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
That's the hell of a day right there.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
That's yeah, yeah, yeah, let's start laying groundwork. Booger down here, man, cave.
Let him try what we pull off the trigger grill
our training camp meals every day. Brian Kelly, I haven't
heard the act sent though, has he stopped doing that?
Speaker 6 (32:10):
Yeah, like he's dropped. It doesn't feel like it was temporary.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Yeah. Yeah. I felt bad for him in the moment
because locally maybe it played, but it was national where
people went, wait, what happened with BK? How long has
he been in Louisiana? I think he's only been there
forty eight hours?
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Wow? Ah my love.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
Yeah, well that happened to anybody here?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
When we go to Ireland, Yes, yes, it will be yes,
it will all of a sudden you get to Dublin
and then all of a sudden it changes.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Are you gonna pull out your mobile phone?
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Text some people? Are you going to bring people up?

Speaker 1 (35:15):
Baltimore Orioles have been a great story this year that
we weren't sure if it was a flash in the pan.
Then all of a sudden realized that the Orioles were
going to be there for the long haul, there in
first place, and then we saw the story. They have
a play by play broadcaster Kevin Brown. He was suspended
and you're probably going, well, what could you get it
(35:36):
suspended for? As a play by play voice. Did he
swear what happened? Well, here's what he said.
Speaker 14 (35:45):
Brandon Heidas felt like this has been maybe the toughest
ballpark to play in. But the Orioles have a chance
to do something special today. They've already clinched at least
a split in the series, winning two of the first three,
and they could pick up a series win behind time
Wells today.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
It's been a minute. The Orioles split a two.
Speaker 14 (36:04):
Gamer with the Rays in June. They had lost their
last fifteen series here at Trupicatafield. You have to go
back to when are now colleague brat Brock picked up
the win and the series finally June twenty fifth, twenty
seventeen and the last time the Oriols won a series
here at Saint Pete already got three and two of
the troup this year after winning three of eighteen the
(36:27):
previous three years. Come by, and it is a stark difference, Ben,
and it is.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Not a bad race team.
Speaker 14 (36:32):
It's not like all of a sudden the race became
slouches in the American League East. They've led this division
every day. But now two and the Orioles once again
our back alone.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
In first place.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Yep, that's it. He got suspended for that. Now there's
a graphic that is up and he's just reading off
the facts that are on the graphic. This isn't something
where he went rogue and goes, I'm going to add
lib this. He's reading off something. Somebody had to provide
the graphic. There had to be a producer involved in this.
Had to be probably a few people. I don't know
(37:05):
if so. I'm trying to, you know, rationalize this, Like
what could he have said where Ownership said we're going
to suspend you? Was he was pointing out how bad
the Orioles used to be, but they've been really good
this year. This will give you an idea. This is rare.
We haven't played well against the Tampa Bay Rays. I
don't know if he does that all the time, because
(37:27):
the Orioles haven't been competitive for a long time, and
does he do this often? And maybe Ownership was like, no,
not going to be saying these negative things anymore. I
don't know what else you can take out of that
where I mean, you have to be so thin skinned
as an owner where you're going Wait, he's saying that
(37:49):
we used to be bad. Yeah, you did, but that
makes it even more special what you're doing this year
instead of oh my god, we're harpen on how bad
we are. No, you're good this year. Great story. This
is where you used to be and this is where
you are.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
Yeah, Pully, we checked a couple different stories and there's
no other information that he was suspended for anything else
but this. We also emailed both Kevin Brown and the
Orioles to ask for a representative to come on or
an explanation. There's more to it, and Oil did not
respond to us.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Well. Other announcers around Major League Baseball responded. Here's Gary Cohen,
he is the Mets announcer. Let me just say.
Speaker 15 (38:29):
One thing to Baltimore Orioles management. You draped yourself in
humiliation when you fired John Miller, and you're doing it again.
And if you don't want Kevin Brown, there are twenty
nine other.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
Teams who do.
Speaker 15 (38:40):
It's a horrendous decision by the Orioles. I don't know
what they were thinking, but they've gotten exactly the reaction
that they deserve. And it's just a shame because the
Orioles are playing so well and now they've diverted attention
from that.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
And then there's Michael Kay, the Yankee announcer.
Speaker 8 (38:58):
If you're going to be so thin skin to suspend
Kevin Brown, then you have to suspend the entire Oriel
truck because they're all complicit in this. And if John Angelos,
the owner of the Orioles, didn't like that that he's
thin skinned, he's unreasonable and he should actually get a
call from Rob Manfred, the Commissioner of Baseball, because it's
(39:20):
unconscionable that you would actually suspend a really good broadcaster
for no reason whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
He didn't do anything wrong. This makes the Orioles look so.
Speaker 12 (39:30):
Small and insignificant and minor league fans of teams should
be lucky when their announcers are allowed to be critical.
And that wasn't even critical, Peter, I believe that that
was complementary of the Orioles.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
It's such a small look.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
It's Michael Kay on the Yes Network. Gary Cohen courtesy
of s n Y TV. Hey, you're listening to it,
and you're going, Okay, what am I missing here? Is
there any kind of previous comments history here? I don't
I don't know, Yeah, seton.
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Well, that's it.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
Like I was trying to find because right, it makes
no sense to be suspended for that. So I spent
a lot of the even trying to figure out why
the Orioles were so upset about it. And the only
reason is there has to be more to the story
than just those comments.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
There.
Speaker 4 (40:20):
I mean, there has to be more than just that.
Even I was even listening to it being like, wow,
maybe it's a little heavy handed, Like do we have
to point out all of the different times like we
haven't won here since ninth, you know, twenty seventeen, and
this is like what Okay, maybe it was a little
heavy handed, but even still, that's does he do that
for every road series where we haven't won in Boston since.
Speaker 6 (40:40):
You know, nineteen eighty seven? This is whatever?
Speaker 1 (40:43):
I I don't know. That's why I keep waiting. Is
there anybody who can fill in the gray area? Here?
Is there gray area where this guy's doing his jump
and there's a graphic that's up. He didn't make the graphic.
He probably didn't come up with the graphic. It's probably
a producer who said, hey, we want to show how
we haven't been successful, but we're successful this year. And
(41:07):
I think you're pointing out what is obvious. But you know,
maybe ownership is going, oh, here we go, we're going
to talk about the negatives, and we didn't do well.
We don't play well here, we haven't played well in
a while. Instead of going, hey, you should be just
talking verbal bouquets with yours. You've got to have a
broadcaster who at least is able to be a broadcaster,
(41:29):
not a puppet. You got to have somebody who's going
to be able to say what he feels or what
he thinks, you know, understanding what the parameters are being professional,
being the local broadcaster, being paid by the team that
you might be critical of. But you know, you build
that up, you build out, build up some house credit
there where. Now your voice means something more. And Kevin Brown,
(41:53):
to me, it didn't sound heavy handed. It just sounded
like he was pointing out what was obvious here.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
And even if you're being a little too negative, too
much to the taste of the executives or the owner,
have a little conversation, you know, give him at least
a warning saying, hey, moving forward, you've been noticing, you've
been just everything's been a little too negative. And then
obviously the broadcaster decides how he wants to handle that criticism.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Yeah, that's what I want to know. Whether was he
told something before this? Pull him aside, just say hey,
you know it doesn't sound positive, Kevin, Make it positive,
Spin it forward, make it positive. We should feel good
about what we're doing. But if you're going to suspend him,
are you suspending other people? I don't think he acts
(42:37):
alone here. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
Pull and the ownership.
Speaker 5 (42:41):
Now it puts a spotlight on their futility over the
past twenty five years. Three playoff appearances in twenty five seasons.
You know that's hard to do in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
Wait, you're skewing negative as you're going to suspend me. Yeah,
you're going to get suspended by the Orioles. Where's Pauli today?
How he got suspended by the Oriels?
Speaker 2 (42:59):
Laugh?
Speaker 3 (42:59):
Oriol broadcast and they were such a feel good story.
That's one of the better stories in baseball.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Yes, yes, because Pauli sent me the article and I'd
already read it, and then I thought, Okay, there's got
to be something. Maybe something happened off the air. I
have no idea, but there has to be something more
than broadcaster gets suspended for pointing out team's futility in
previous years against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Speaker 5 (43:24):
Yes, I wonder if he would consider suing them while
still being a broadcaster then, because then they can't fire
him during the lawsuit, and then he could say, like,
look what you did to my reputation. I read facts
on the air.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
Yeah, but then you don't if I'm an owner of
another team, do I want somebody who is filed a
lawsuit against ownership because of what was said. I'd be
nervous about that.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
Like suspending the weathermen. Now the guy just read the facts.
Speaker 1 (43:50):
Yeah, but he's skewing negative. He's talking about thirty percent
chance of rain instead of seventy percent chance of not
having any rain. Ryan Leaf's going to join us in
studio coming up. We'll get some more phone calls as well.
One more hour to go.
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio. It's hour two on this Tuesday, Hard Knocks Tonight.
Preseason games. On Thursday, we were wondering, what's the first
image of Hard Knocks Tonight. What's the first who's the
first person? What's the first image? Is it an image?
(00:22):
Is it going to be a sprinkler going off? Is
it going to be Robert Salah pulling up to the
facility at four forty two in the morning, Aaron Rodgers
coming in with his aviator glasses on, sauce gardener is
gonna show up? What's it going to be? I still
think it's gonna be Robert sala One light on in
(00:43):
the building and then you get the exterior shot. Either
that or it's gonna open up on a sprinkler. It
just feels like, I think by sprinkler needs a little
work there. It was cutting down a little bit. See
(01:05):
can you give me a sprinkler? There? You go? Still
not working that well, Todd, Tod, can you give me
a sprink.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Have to say anything?
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I felt the sprinkling before.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
If I had a friend who was in the front
row and said, uh, they got they got wet. There
was there was some spit going there, but I think
that happens. I've been to a Broadway show where oh
I saw Hamilton by the Way original cast and we
were in the front row and we were getting showered
(01:43):
there during the performance.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Yes, earlier or later in a little last hour, Dan,
you had mentioned why would Nebraska be excited if Rutgers
came to town? Somebody suggesting because Nebraska would actually get
a win. Whoa shots fired and both connections on that one.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Well done, got a new coach there, new direction and

Speaker 4 (04:03):
I had a couple very excited about a bunch of things.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, okay, go ahead, Tom.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
What's your excitement level for hard knocks with the Jets tonight?
I simply cannot wait. I'll probably watch a good amount.
We'll take a peek or nah, not interested.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
In Okay, Yeah, I'll take a peek. I'm always curious
about how these things, but I'm looking at more of
the structure of it, of how they put it together.
That's always interesting. With the storylines. I still think Zach
Wilson is a great storyline. Under the tutelage or mentorship
of Aaron Rodgers. I like that. But there's always going
(04:38):
to be that guy that you had no idea who
he was. You fall for his story. He's probably got
a wife who is pregnant. He's trying to make the team,
and you know, he's twenty seven years of age and
this is his last chance before he goes into the
insurance business or whatever it might be. He also plays
the guitar I get, and he has a poodle named Sally,
(05:02):
and you're gonna go God, they can't cut that guy.
He's awesome. Wait can he play. Oh, I don't know, yes, Mark.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
And your heart sinks when they miss a tackle. Oh,
it is one of those and they know it and
you know it. Yeah, Like, I'll bring in your playbooth.
Don't even finish the game.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
What are the other poll questions that you have there?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
If the remaining PAC twelve schools are absorbed by other conferences,
I will be very upset. I might briefly shake my
head in dismay and move on, which I encourage the
second one for most people, for your.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Mental health, anything else that you have.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Do you feel lucky when the day and month on
the calendar are the same number, like August eighth.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Today eight eight?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Of course? Who doesn't or what?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
No, why would you feel lucky?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I don't know. Just something cool about it's eight eight.
Maybe it's because my birthday's ten to ten. Whatever it is,
the day and month of the same It's like, you
know what, today's gonna be an extra fun or special
day because the day and month of the same number.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
All right, you know what, Let's talk about this tomorrow
as to what happened today and if it's lucky for anybody? Okay, Like,
are you getting lucky.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
As a tenor Todd.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Do you feel a certain kinship with a nine to
niner and an eight etor I do, actually, and.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I feel like I really like my birthday. I liked
that that was one of the tenth day to tenth months,
like Brett fav nineteen sixty nine. So I roll with that.
I could roll with that.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Do you want to give me some of your mock
little leaguers?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I can do that. Okay, Okay, this is a lineup.
I have one for every position. These are fake people
with fake likes and dislikes. But here we go.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Okay. Don't know if we need every position.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
But okay, if you like it as it goes along,
continue or you can shut it up.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Okay, Stevie th that's good.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Stevie Thurman's nine year old second basement likes coloring books, Pringles,
potato chips, and Derek Bell of all people, I found
that interesting.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Guys, we're played very dated or very dated with your ass.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Mitchell Ran, an eight year old left fielder, enjoys Oreo,
double stuff, cookies, sticker books, and Clay Buckholtz. How about that.
Andrew Tobias is a ten year old catcher. He likes
you who chocolate, action drinks, Pokemon cards and Bombo rivera
interesting they can play for the twin maybe the Angels
back in the day. Sammy Rowse, eleven year old shortstop
appreciates a good prank, fruity pebbles and Dave concepts ay
(07:07):
and because he plays shortstop too.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
I know, but can you get out of the seventies
and eighties.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
From the try? Lawrence Chapman, nine year old third baseman.
Favorites include frozen pizza and tutsie rolls. He's afraid of
snow globes. That's hod.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
He doesn't have a favorite player.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
No, okay, it's not. Everyone has a favorite player. Barry Nathanson,
ten year old right fielder likes cream soda, donkey Kong,
and has a crush on his baby Sally. Oh boy,
he's gonna be embarrassed. Show Sal Hoag's nine year old
first baseman can't get enough Big League two, bubble yum
and razzles. Allergic to sunflower seeds. Not give the kid, sus.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
I think the best part of this are the names
that you made up.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Tony Burnbaum, twelve year old picture eats creams. He's out
of the container like it's yogurt, has an aversion to
blow pops. What what is it like? Blow pops?
Speaker 7 (07:54):
The Gumman flood a nine year old name Lawrence. He's
got to be named after somebody. He's got to be
like Lawrence whatever? The fourth?
Speaker 1 (08:00):
All right? What else?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
There's two more left. Stewart Pagnucci, ten year old, ten
year old designated hitter likes pizza but without sauc or
cheese on it. Collects superhero underrews. Yo Yo is given
panic attacks. Yoyo is given panic attacks.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
They're all fictitious.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Yeah, and Seth Cushman, eleven year old center fielder. He
likes to dress up as Taylor Swift. Addicted to gummy bears,
has become incritically more uncomfortable around his goldfish, who tells
him to do.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Things not have mental issues.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Man, that's messed up.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
It is a little weird. It is that Proumser's goldfish
who tells him to do things.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
And I told you to do that, and you had
about fifteen minutes to put all that together.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
I like the kid that he's cream cheese right out
of the container like yogurt. That can't be healthy. He's
a little eager as an Aflee.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
What are you doing?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Light creamcheese? Supposed we will.
Speaker 7 (08:48):
Beth Cushman.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
That's a good one. Seth Cushman. Are these people you
grew up with?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
I grew up with a Glenn Cushman, a Frank pagan Uccie.
Change it up a little bit. Dad Nathan's is the
exact name of a kid who was on one of
my baseball team. All right, the others are completely made up.
Speaker 8 (09:02):
All right?
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Tom Jeremy and Alabama. Hi Jeremy, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (09:09):
Hey Dan, I'm going to get into this real quickly.
Number one, your fictations college their first bowl game. They'll
play in the charm and Soft Bowl. Okay, I'm gonna
give you a Seaton answer that I feel like for
this whole regional thing. H Is it just the fact
that it's so simple of an answer to solve the
(09:32):
problems for volleyball and others that these conference, the presidents
and all these got to make it look difficult just
so they can keep their jobs. And if somebody can
tell me everybody's shirt size, because I've got some merchandise
to send y'all because I want y'all to have shirts.
But actually fit.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Oh wait, who doesn't have a shirt that fits?
Speaker 10 (09:56):
Now?
Speaker 9 (09:56):
When people send y'all shirts and stuff into the studio
and everything, they always send you all like eight extra largest.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah that's true. Yeah, okay, why don't you just send
larges and an extra large? Thank you, Jim. Yeah, I
didn't know if we, you know, had this slovenly demeanor here.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Yeah, I saw this T shirt company keeps popping up
on social media. It's for kind of dads and forty
and fifty year old guys, or at hide your belly.
Yeah yeah, and a market has said instead of working out,
instead of trying to get in shape, just wear one
of these shirts.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
My wife thinks I lost fifteen pounds.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
Yeah, my wife thinks I've been at the gym for
two months. My buddies all think I'm jacked. But it's
the same guy just wearing a more I guess blousey
shirt or better fitting.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Is there a way to create a T shirt that
would have abs in it underneath it?
Speaker 6 (10:52):
I mean spanks are a thing, right, Why not?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Well that's todd big on that.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Just make it tight on your make the shirt tight
on your arms and chest, and have a lot of
room in the stomach area, and then everybody would look.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
At that's what this shirt I'm talking about it.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
They market it towards showing off your shoulders and arms
if you have them, and even if you don't, and
then a little more breathing room.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Chest down.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Perfect.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
But couldn't you do something that compression wise that you're
you would see the imprint of abs through the shirt,
but it wouldn't be your real abs because you wouldn't
have them.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
Isn't that kind of false marketing for the ladies?
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Like you're? Well, ladies do some false marketing too.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
I've been the victim of that.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
You have.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Oh yeah, the push up?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Oh, the push up brawl.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Yeah, we've all been faked out by the push up.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
What happens when they want to touch your abs or
lift your shirt? I got to see this.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
No, oh, there's one.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Ab, not six?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Where's the tube top? Though? You know, I grew up
in an era when we had the tube top. I
should never have gone away or the halter top. Yeah, okay,
let's see Seth and Iowa, Hi, Seth? What's on your
mind today?
Speaker 10 (12:04):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (12:04):
Dan, I got a dark horse for the hard Knocks opening.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Okay, all right, let me hear.
Speaker 11 (12:10):
Joe Thomas introducing Aaron Rodgers at the press conference, and
then it's going to cut to the opening credits.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Okay, Yeah, but they always love natural sound. They bring
it in whenever I would do a story. If I
was doing a story, when I was reporting, I love
nat sound. Natural sound. There'd be something that you just
wanted it. You know. It could be a stream where you
just hear the water. It could be in any kind
(12:38):
of noise that you go even, you know, like a
car horn, anything that you could start without it being traditional.
Well not maybe that, but I'm thinking maybe you get
a sprinkler, although they've gone to the sprinkler a little
too often there. Yeah. See, No, I don't I don't
(13:03):
think that. That sounds like somebody's in trouble.
Speaker 6 (13:06):
Yeah, someone's in trouble. Oh, here comes Aaron Ryan from Manhattan.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Yeah, it's a jet coming in on a helicopter.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
That's perfect, a jet coming in on a helicopter.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I think it's good. I think I could help hard
knocks here. I think I.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Wouldn't it be wild if Lev Shriver didn't agree to
do it. Uh, And he was just like, no, I'm
picketing and they just used Ai to do his voice anyway.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
And like totally proved the whole point.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
Of the strike. Wow anyway, sorry, side well wow, sidebar.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Yeah. Uh Danny in New Mexico. Hi Danny, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 11 (13:51):
First time, long time, five ten, one sixty five. I
just had a little uh well event photo for Fritzy.
It happened to be my birthday. I don't need you
guys to sing to me, but I was born in
nineteen eighty so I turned eight on eight eighty eight.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
That's fantastic. How so?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
How so? What? How so? Is it fantastic just because
of the new morolegy?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah? I just love anything with numbers that kind of
maybe mean something to somebody. You can play around with
them and make it mean whatever you want. That's kind
of cool.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Well, congratulations. I guess Danny that the question.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Is is he having a good life or was that?
Was it lucky? Is he having lucky experienses around these
eight numbers?
Speaker 1 (14:36):
I don't know. Isn't eight a great number?
Speaker 2 (14:39):
It's a fantastic member.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
But doesn't it have special designation? Is it infinity?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Some people would say eight is enough.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
In the Jewish community, is an age eighteen O eight.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Eighteen hi, which is a very high ithai hi, very
good luck number the number eighteen.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So that would be Peyton Manning be big in the
Jewish community.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Super Bow fifty champions never broken.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
Okay, lucky for time.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
There you go, lucky for me. Now that wasn't just
the two lway ones. We got that third one because
of number eighteen. Well because of the defense.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yes, not because of eighteen.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
But no fly zone got us the third one.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Yeah, that's true. Let's see anything else that needs to
be mentioned here. We're going to talk about the Orioles
who were playing great baseball suspended their broadcaster. I don't
even think he was the play by play guy. He
was the pre and postgame host. He got suspended. The
Angels lose again, the Yankees lose, Aaron Boone lost his bleep.
(15:36):
Why do grown men do that? We allow it in baseball.
You know he's out there on his knees. He like,
you're going, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Once you start doing like impersonations out there, that's where
you might have gone a little far.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
But it's because you have a uniform on, right. If
he was had a three piece suit on. Managers used
to wear a suit in time back in the day.
But you know you got your your spikes and your
hat and your uniform. Yeah see, I.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Think it's less about the uniform and more about the stadium.
Like there's manager's Aaron Boone was so demonstrative when he
was talking.
Speaker 6 (16:16):
Nobody throws their arms around like that, Nobody rings them
out like he.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
I think he's just putting on a performance. It was
more like WWE than anything else. It was embarrassing, super
embarrassing it was. And then he was wrong.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
He went out there to argue a call balls and strikes,
and even the Yankee announcers that, uh, he was wrong there,
but you know what a strike.
Speaker 4 (16:37):
I think the only thing actually that would have made
it weirder is if he was in a suit.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
If he walked out there in a suit, I would
be like, what is this guy? But he wouldn't. Why
we don't allow this in any other sport where you
get to go out there and stop the game, turn
your hat around, get right in the umpire's face, throw dirt,
all that stuff, but we allow it in baseball. Remember
when lou Penella picked up a base and threw it
(17:04):
into the outfield I remember having him on. I said,
what do you think your kids thought? He goes, Oh,
they are embarrassed. Yes, like you're a grown man. You're
out there. It's about the kids.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
Yeah, pulling Boone's out there for like four minutes too.
Why isn't there a clock on him? Why isn't there
an injection clock that says you could walk out and argue.
You get thirty seconds to make your case. Then we
got to run this, run this back.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Well, we have a pitch clock. Yeah, hitter's clock. Argument clock, Yeah,
argument clock. State your case, yes, Todd, I.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Like the argument clock. Get to the point. What have
you got to You want to cover up a whole
plate with third throw, all the equipment on the field,
whatever it is. But you got that window and then
get the heck out of here. I think it's great.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Somebody else needs a clock. Oh whoa, whoa, Land the plane,
as I always tell Todd, Todd, land the plane, half
and half of that booger. McFarlane from the Mother's ship

two times Super Bowl Champ, works for the Mothership covering
the NFL and college football. Give me the storyline that
(19:56):
you're interested in with hard Knocks and the Jets debuting.
Speaker 10 (20:02):
Just to see how much they're gonna show us DP.
I think we're all fascinated with the fact that Aaron
Rodgers is in New York, the expectations, the defense that
think it just gets my offense now he comes in.
I think Aaron Rodgers is one of the people in
the National Football League that's very intriguing because he thinks
differently than most people do, and so I think everyone
(20:24):
is wondering, are we going to get a sneak peep
under the hood at the process that makes him go,
or are we going to get any insightful things from
his perspective. I think, you know, everybody kind of knows
Sauce Gardner and he's flashy in the defense, and Robert
Sala and kind of the makeup. But I think Aaron
Rodgers is the reason that everybody's going to tune in
(20:45):
to see if they get a sneak peek at what
makes this guy go. Because the little that we've gotten
on Pat McAfee on their Tuesday interview, I think has
us all very very curious just to know more.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Pair training camp for a veteran to a rookie.
Speaker 10 (21:06):
You know that that's one way to look at it.
I think I'll break it down even further. Training camp
for a veteran, you know what to expect, You understand
what your role is usually coming into camp because a
veteran player is kind of already established.
Speaker 12 (21:23):
You know.
Speaker 10 (21:23):
The rookie, especially the rookie first rounder, has some of
those same sentiments, but you don't really know because you're
trying to figure out what's gonna be my role. Everybody's
gonna be looking at me because you're a new player.
So even when even when you're doing a rep, everybody's
gonna be paying attention to the rookie or the new guy,
just to see what they can do. Because football is
a collision sport. Man, it's played with pads on. Like
(21:43):
all the stuff we've done up until now has been
cool to run around in shorts and look good and
post Instagram and TikTok videos. But when the pads go on,
there's a legitimate feeling that you could get your head
knocked off. And that's when the game of football is played.
So for a veteran, it's it's kind of re establishing
who you are. For a rookie, you gotta let everyone
know where you come from. And then to the point
(22:05):
that I was making to go a little further, training
camp now is so different than it was when I played.
So my first training camp I held out for two
days and the very first day I got there, we
were in full pads. It was full pads in the morning,
full pads in the afternoon. Well here's the deal, DP,
Now they got this thing they called an acclimation pid.
I'm not sure what the hell it means, because it's
(22:26):
going to be hot regardless, but you got to acclimate
to the heat and acclimate the football. The same thing.
We've been playing for fifteen years, so it's so much
easier now. Like these guys can't go full pass back
to back, they can't go full pads. The first five
or six days. It's really not training camp. It's more
of a kind of get together, let's hang out for
(22:47):
a couple of weeks, and we're going to practice once
every other day and try to get this thing figured out.
So it's so much different between rookie and veteran. And
it's also so much different between now and then.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Was it ever personal with you with a quarterback that
you didn't like, No, Like.
Speaker 10 (23:08):
It was more personal with me with the guy that
I went against across from me. Like I used to
have to line up against guards, and like, when you're
a defensive tackle going against an offensive lineman, you're really
never gonna get a lot of one on one block,
so it's always gonna be double teams. And it used
to bother me. I'm like, so these dudes are professional,
they get paid a lot of money, but they can't
(23:29):
individually block me one on one every single play. So
like that really used to tick me off. Just the
inherent nature of the position I played and how the
offensive lineman would block us, would really kind of rub
me the wrong way. But quarterbacks doing their job, man, Like,
I didn't like any of them, especially the ones that
got rid of the ball quick Brady Manning, those guys
(23:50):
that didn't hold a football. You love going against a
guy that was a bomb, a guy who held the football.
Because you do, it's a good good day for you.
But overall, like, quarterbacks are who they are.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
But who's the lineman you you really personally hated.
Speaker 10 (24:05):
Kevin Gogan was one, Larry Allen was another one.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
But were they cheap shot earnersts? Like what would make
you hate that guy that? It wasn't just it was
it became personal.
Speaker 10 (24:20):
Well it was personal because of the position. As I stated,
Gogan was a cheap shot guy. Like I think it's
been really documented some of the chief shots that he
took and some of the dirty play that he had.
You know. Todd Stusey was another guy. Guys that just
got under your skin. Like there's there's this thing in
the NFL talk about playing to the echo of the whistle. Well,
(24:42):
some offensive lineman would do that and they would give
you a little nudge, a little chief shot. Listen, big guy,
you had three and a half seconds to block men,
you couldn't do it. And so now after the player
you want to give me a little nuts like, and
they do it just to get under your skin. So
but yeah, I don't like any of them, man, just
because I mean, these dudes are big, they're usually bad built,
(25:02):
and they always need help to do their job.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Talking to Booger McFarlane, two times Super Bowl champ and
analysts for ESPN NFL in college football, had Jamar Chase say,
if Joe Burrow's not one hundred percent, he wouldn't have
a problem with him maybe sitting out the first five
games of the regular season. I know that they don't
have great competition in four of those five games, but
(25:26):
you're still playing the Browns and Ravens to start off
your season. Your thoughts on trying to protect Joe Burrow
for as long as you can.
Speaker 10 (25:34):
Well, I completely agree, because with the Joe Burrow, they
can win the Super Bowl. Without him, they're just a
middle of the pack team. And so fortunately time you
know right now, they had a gift the time. It's
what augusty eighth, they don't play a meaningful game for
over a month. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't
see Joe Burrow in the practice field until wednsday of
(25:54):
game week. He doesn't need to be out there. Yeah,
he might be a little rusty, but I'd rather have
Joe Burrow rusty for game one then to come back
too early and re injo that and now he starts
missing a significant part of the season. Even if he's
got to miss the first game or two, I'm still
fine with that. Like it's a seventeen game season over
the course of eighteen weeks. I think his sentiment that
(26:17):
I don't want to see Joe Burrow back until he
is as healthy as possible is one that a lot
of people in that organization share.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Dalvin Cook still out outside looking in, Zeke Elliott on
the outside looking in. Is this an anomaly or do
you think this is going to be a growing trend
in the off season in years to come.
Speaker 10 (26:38):
Yeah. I think the running back position, as we talked about,
is bend value. I think that you're going to see
a lot of the veteran running backs that want a
lot of money, they're gonna have to kind of wait
until some team kind of bits like it's supplying demand.
So if I got a guy that I drafted in
the third or fourth round that I feel can do
the same job or just as good a job as
(27:00):
a guy like Davin Cook or Ezekiel Jelly, why am
I going to go out and pay you know, seven
eight million for even one of those guys. And so
I think for Dalvin Cook and Zeke Jellett, they're both
going to be on opening day rosters. I think they're
both going to play a vital role with some team.
I think Dalvin Cook has more juice left in the
tank four straight seasons over a thousand yards. He's only
(27:20):
twenty seven years old. Think about that, VP Think about
if somebody told you at twenty seven you were no good.
Like at twenty seven, I wasn't even stretching. I just
touched my toes and got it, went to work. And
now at twenty seven they're saying that these guys are
kind of washed up. So it's a very very difficult
predicament to be in. I do think Dalvin Cook is
(27:42):
going to be a starter at some point in this league.
He's just got too much juice left in the tank.
But I kind of feel for Zeke though, because if
Zeke doesn't go to maybe Dallas. I know New England
has kind of brought him in. Like where does Zeke go?
And how much money is he gonna have to settle for?
At some point they're gonna have to swallowed their pride.
Zeke I think and say, Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna
(28:03):
go play for a one year deal for I don't
know two or three million bucks, which is a far
crop from what Jerry paid him in doubts.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
How much do you think you would earn now if
you were picking LSU?
Speaker 10 (28:15):
Oh? Wow, a lot of money, because.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Well, what's the going rate for a defensive tackle?
Speaker 10 (28:23):
Well, I think the going rate for a five star
defensive tackle probably I don't know, probably probably a million
bucks a year at least. I mean, think about that.
Think about that. DP I was. I was a three
fourth star guy coming out of Louisiana, and my first
two years at LSU there were several several weekends where
(28:45):
I had five bucks to my name, The training table
wasn't open, and I was eating ramen noodles in Chinese
food all weekend. Now, these guys got a million dollars
in the bank. Uh, they're the toast of the town,
and they're getting that in high school, not in college.
Like these guys are being paid in high school once
they commit to shut down the recruiting until signing day,
(29:06):
and then once you get to the school of your chores,
you're getting paid even more money. So I was born
just a little bit too early, but I don't envy
these guys, because more money comes more problems. And when
I got to the NFL at twenty one, I didn't
really understand that statement, but I quickly learned that the
more money I got, the more headaches came. So I
can only imagine what these kids at seventeen are dealing
(29:28):
with when they got a million bucks in the bank.
They're seventeen years old and they got to go to school.
Oh by the way, you're still seventeen and you're a kid,
but now you got to deal with the issues that
twenty one year old adults have to deal with. I
don't envy that at all.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Who's kind of better Louisiana accent? You were, Brian Kelly.
Speaker 10 (29:47):
Well, I'm a country boy from Louisiana, so my accent
is really kind of not really Southern and not really Cajun,
so I could really teach BK a little bit about
how to get it a a little better. Although here's
what I will say. I will give him credit for trying.
I will give him credit also for acknowledging that he
(30:08):
was terrible. But all jokes is out. He's been exactly
what LSU is needed, which is an adult in the room,
somebody that can be a CEO type of a major
powerhouse program. And we'll see what he does with expectations.
Tien wins year one, we'll see what he does in
year two with the preseason ranking of number five.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
But he didn't have to give an accent. You don't
have to if I if I go down to Louisiana,
I don't all of a sudden, you know, start talking
and we haven't even won all of our games.
Speaker 10 (30:37):
Yes, but I mean he really sounded like a Louisiana
guy from nineteen fifty, you know, putting on the smoker's jackie,
grabbing a cigar, sitting on the front porch. So if
he really wanted to do it, he should have picked
up a bowl of crawfish attofe and just kind of
start using that French Cajun cuisine.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Great to tell you, to you, Booger. Hope you're doing well.
Hope the golf game is good.
Speaker 10 (31:04):
DP. I'm doing great, man, the golf game is excellent.
I'm enjoying life. Ready for football season to start, man.
And this year, here's one promise I can make you.
I will make a meat Friday. Because we've been talking
about this for several years, I will make a meat
Friday this year.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Me know what you want. You let me know what
you want, and then we'll cook it on the tragger grill.
Speaker 10 (31:27):
I'm looking forward to sausage, beef, brisket, okay, and maybe
just a little bit of uh, maybe just a little
bit of fry tip.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Okay, we can do that for you. Just give me,
give me advanced notice here, like a day or so,
and then we'll cook it up. We'll do buddy, all right,
thank you, Booger. Yes, point, I bet he can get
after it. Yeah, I would think.
Speaker 10 (31:48):
So.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
That's the hell of a day right there.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
That's yeah, yeah, yeah, let's start laying groundwork. Booger down here, man, cave.
Let him try what we pull off the trigger grill
our training camp meals every day. Brian Kelly, I haven't
heard the act sent though, has he stopped doing that?
Speaker 6 (32:10):
Yeah, like he's dropped. It doesn't feel like it was temporary.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Yeah. Yeah. I felt bad for him in the moment
because locally maybe it played, but it was national where
people went, wait, what happened with BK? How long has
he been in Louisiana? I think he's only been there
forty eight hours?
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Wow? Ah my love.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
Yeah, well that happened to anybody here?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
When we go to Ireland, Yes, yes, it will be yes,
it will all of a sudden you get to Dublin
and then all of a sudden it changes.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
Are you gonna pull out your mobile phone?
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Text some people? Are you going to bring people up?
Speaker 1 (32:50):

Speaker 1 (35:15):
Baltimore Orioles have been a great story this year that
we weren't sure if it was a flash in the pan.
Then all of a sudden realized that the Orioles were
going to be there for the long haul, there in
first place, and then we saw the story. They have
a play by play broadcaster Kevin Brown. He was suspended
and you're probably going, well, what could you get it
(35:36):
suspended for? As a play by play voice. Did he
swear what happened? Well, here's what he said.
Speaker 14 (35:45):
Brandon Heidas felt like this has been maybe the toughest
ballpark to play in. But the Orioles have a chance
to do something special today. They've already clinched at least
a split in the series, winning two of the first three,
and they could pick up a series win behind time
Wells today.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
It's been a minute. The Orioles split a two.
Speaker 14 (36:04):
Gamer with the Rays in June. They had lost their
last fifteen series here at Trupicatafield. You have to go
back to when are now colleague brat Brock picked up
the win and the series finally June twenty fifth, twenty
seventeen and the last time the Oriols won a series
here at Saint Pete already got three and two of
the troup this year after winning three of eighteen the
(36:27):
previous three years. Come by, and it is a stark difference, Ben,
and it is.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Not a bad race team.
Speaker 14 (36:32):
It's not like all of a sudden the race became
slouches in the American League East. They've led this division
every day. But now two and the Orioles once again
our back alone.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
In first place.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Yep, that's it. He got suspended for that. Now there's
a graphic that is up and he's just reading off
the facts that are on the graphic. This isn't something
where he went rogue and goes, I'm going to add
lib this. He's reading off something. Somebody had to provide
the graphic. There had to be a producer involved in this.
Had to be probably a few people. I don't know
(37:05):
if so. I'm trying to, you know, rationalize this, Like
what could he have said where Ownership said we're going
to suspend you? Was he was pointing out how bad
the Orioles used to be, but they've been really good
this year. This will give you an idea. This is rare.
We haven't played well against the Tampa Bay Rays. I
don't know if he does that all the time, because
(37:27):
the Orioles haven't been competitive for a long time, and
does he do this often? And maybe Ownership was like, no,
not going to be saying these negative things anymore. I
don't know what else you can take out of that
where I mean, you have to be so thin skinned
as an owner where you're going Wait, he's saying that
(37:49):
we used to be bad. Yeah, you did, but that
makes it even more special what you're doing this year
instead of oh my god, we're harpen on how bad
we are. No, you're good this year. Great story. This
is where you used to be and this is where
you are.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
Yeah, Pully, we checked a couple different stories and there's
no other information that he was suspended for anything else
but this. We also emailed both Kevin Brown and the
Orioles to ask for a representative to come on or
an explanation. There's more to it, and Oil did not
respond to us.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Well. Other announcers around Major League Baseball responded. Here's Gary Cohen,
he is the Mets announcer. Let me just say.
Speaker 15 (38:29):
One thing to Baltimore Orioles management. You draped yourself in
humiliation when you fired John Miller, and you're doing it again.
And if you don't want Kevin Brown, there are twenty
nine other.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
Teams who do.
Speaker 15 (38:40):
It's a horrendous decision by the Orioles. I don't know
what they were thinking, but they've gotten exactly the reaction
that they deserve. And it's just a shame because the
Orioles are playing so well and now they've diverted attention
from that.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
And then there's Michael Kay, the Yankee announcer.
Speaker 8 (38:58):
If you're going to be so thin skin to suspend
Kevin Brown, then you have to suspend the entire Oriel
truck because they're all complicit in this. And if John Angelos,
the owner of the Orioles, didn't like that that he's
thin skinned, he's unreasonable and he should actually get a
call from Rob Manfred, the Commissioner of Baseball, because it's
(39:20):
unconscionable that you would actually suspend a really good broadcaster
for no reason whatsoever.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
He didn't do anything wrong. This makes the Orioles look so.
Speaker 12 (39:30):
Small and insignificant and minor league fans of teams should
be lucky when their announcers are allowed to be critical.
And that wasn't even critical, Peter, I believe that that
was complementary of the Orioles.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
It's such a small look.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
It's Michael Kay on the Yes Network. Gary Cohen courtesy
of s n Y TV. Hey, you're listening to it,
and you're going, Okay, what am I missing here? Is
there any kind of previous comments history here? I don't
I don't know, Yeah, seton.
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Well, that's it.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
Like I was trying to find because right, it makes
no sense to be suspended for that. So I spent
a lot of the even trying to figure out why
the Orioles were so upset about it. And the only
reason is there has to be more to the story
than just those comments.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
There.
Speaker 4 (40:20):
I mean, there has to be more than just that.
Even I was even listening to it being like, wow,
maybe it's a little heavy handed, Like do we have
to point out all of the different times like we
haven't won here since ninth, you know, twenty seventeen, and
this is like what Okay, maybe it was a little
heavy handed, but even still, that's does he do that
for every road series where we haven't won in Boston since.
Speaker 6 (40:40):
You know, nineteen eighty seven? This is whatever?
Speaker 1 (40:43):
I I don't know. That's why I keep waiting. Is
there anybody who can fill in the gray area? Here?
Is there gray area where this guy's doing his jump
and there's a graphic that's up. He didn't make the graphic.
He probably didn't come up with the graphic. It's probably
a producer who said, hey, we want to show how
we haven't been successful, but we're successful this year. And
(41:07):
I think you're pointing out what is obvious. But you know,
maybe ownership is going, oh, here we go, we're going
to talk about the negatives, and we didn't do well.
We don't play well here, we haven't played well in
a while. Instead of going, hey, you should be just
talking verbal bouquets with yours. You've got to have a
broadcaster who at least is able to be a broadcaster,
(41:29):
not a puppet. You got to have somebody who's going
to be able to say what he feels or what
he thinks, you know, understanding what the parameters are being professional,
being the local broadcaster, being paid by the team that
you might be critical of. But you know, you build
that up, you build out, build up some house credit
there where. Now your voice means something more. And Kevin Brown,
(41:53):
to me, it didn't sound heavy handed. It just sounded
like he was pointing out what was obvious here.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
And even if you're being a little too negative, too
much to the taste of the executives or the owner,
have a little conversation, you know, give him at least
a warning saying, hey, moving forward, you've been noticing, you've
been just everything's been a little too negative. And then
obviously the broadcaster decides how he wants to handle that criticism.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
Yeah, that's what I want to know. Whether was he
told something before this? Pull him aside, just say hey,
you know it doesn't sound positive, Kevin, Make it positive,
Spin it forward, make it positive. We should feel good
about what we're doing. But if you're going to suspend him,
are you suspending other people? I don't think he acts
(42:37):
alone here. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
Pull and the ownership.
Speaker 5 (42:41):
Now it puts a spotlight on their futility over the
past twenty five years. Three playoff appearances in twenty five seasons.
You know that's hard to do in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
Wait, you're skewing negative as you're going to suspend me. Yeah,
you're going to get suspended by the Orioles. Where's Pauli today?
How he got suspended by the Oriels?
Speaker 2 (42:59):
Laugh?
Speaker 3 (42:59):
Oriol broadcast and they were such a feel good story.
That's one of the better stories in baseball.
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Yes, yes, because Pauli sent me the article and I'd
already read it, and then I thought, Okay, there's got
to be something. Maybe something happened off the air. I
have no idea, but there has to be something more
than broadcaster gets suspended for pointing out team's futility in
previous years against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Speaker 5 (43:24):
Yes, I wonder if he would consider suing them while
still being a broadcaster then, because then they can't fire
him during the lawsuit, and then he could say, like,
look what you did to my reputation. I read facts
on the air.
Speaker 1 (43:35):
Yeah, but then you don't if I'm an owner of
another team, do I want somebody who is filed a
lawsuit against ownership because of what was said. I'd be
nervous about that.
Speaker 3 (43:46):
Like suspending the weathermen. Now the guy just read the facts.
Speaker 1 (43:50):
Yeah, but he's skewing negative. He's talking about thirty percent
chance of rain instead of seventy percent chance of not
having any rain. Ryan Leaf's going to join us in
studio coming up. We'll get some more phone calls as well.
One more hour to go.
