Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio our.
Speaker 2 (00:05):

you didn't like? Best and Worst of the weekend. Operator
Tyler is sitting by doing nothing but answering your phone
calls eight seven seven three DP show. We say good morning.
Those watching on Peacock also NBC Sports Network. Are those

(00:25):
Rectech is giving away a grill. You can go to
rectech dot com and search the Dan Patrick Show for details,
then tune in for Friday, May fifteenth. Chef Greg from
Rectech will be here to give it away. Give it away,
Give it away now ore ec t eq. Speaking of music,
picked up the New York Times magazine. Taylor Swift was
(00:48):
on the cover, and I go, all right, I'll read
about Taylor Swift and it was the fifty Greatest Living
American Songwriters. And I thought, okay, I'll look at that.
And you go through and you see Bob Dylan is
in there, Carol King is in there and gave us
the great album Tapestry. You got outcast in there. So
(01:11):
there's bad bunnies in there. There's a variety of artists
in there, and you're kind of going through Stevie Wonders
in there, and you're going, okay, Bruce Springsteen, all right.
Then all of a sudden, I go, well, Hallan Oates
are still alive. I think they wrote most of their music.
(01:33):
And then I go, Billy Joel is still alive. I
think he wrote most of his music. They're not in there.
So the Top fifty American Living American songwriters is it
Top fifty or Top thirty? Paul, I got thirty. Oh, well,
maybe they should have gone to fifty, so then Billy
Joel and Hallan Oates would have made that. But I
(01:53):
was kind of surprised at this list that and some
of the some of the artists I didn't know, and
some of them are just songwriters, but I did. I
was kind of surprised that hall of Oates and Billy
Joel didn't make the cut.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, Paul, I'm reading the list, and I'm surprised with
Billy Joel because even if you don't like his music,
you can't argue with the success of his work for
you know, a ten year period. They did have a
PostScript article eleven Great American Songwriters who didn't make our
list The New York Times. They did that because of
the reaction.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Well, who did they put in there?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
All the people you just named it didn't make it,
like Billy Joel and the few.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Did hall of Oates make their list of because I don't.
I don't know if they wrote their music. I know
Billy Joel did.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Frank Ocean made it, Billy Joel did, Hall of Notes
did not.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Oh Well, to be fair to the list in New
York Times, I should check and see if hallan Oates
actually wrote their music. Kendrick Lamar is in there. You know,
there's people that deserve to be in there. It's just
kind of surprising that you have the the thirty greatest
living American songwriters and Billy Joel doesn't make that list.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Yes, Paul, does it matter if an artist writes his
songs or her songs?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
James Taylor's not in there, is he? Because I think
James Taylor wrote his music, so I'm not I don't
think James Taylor is in there among the top thirty. Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I remember seeing an interview with Garth Brooks, the great
country star at his peak, and he even said, I
don't write the songs. I'm giving songs. I'm the performer.
And because people were asking, oh, you don't write your
own songs if it's a bad thing as well. You
know Robert de Niro doesn't write his own lines.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Well, there are Sinatra didn't write anything. I don't think.
I mean, I get it. There's certain artists that will
take what you give them and then make it theirs.
But did Chris Stapleton make it in among the greatest
living American songwriters. I don't know if Chris did. He's
(04:04):
written over a thousand songs. He's written songs where he
hands them out to other people. He said, Adele, he
wrote a song for Adele this is he said. I
didn't even know who Adele was at the time, but
you know he wrote a song for her, wrote a
song for Darius Rucker. I mean, he's written a lot
(04:24):
of songs. I would think that he would be in there. Yes, Dylan, we.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Got Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton in there, and young Thug.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
And Willie Nelson should be in there. Willie is one
of the great songwriters of all time. And any list
that has Dolly Parton in I'm fine with that. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
Yeah, Dolly Parton should just be in there alone, just
for writing Joelene and I Will Always Love You in
the same day.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Joline, I think Dolly talked about she eventually ran into
Joe Lene years later, and she said basically that Joe
Lene didn't hold up like Joline, didn't look like Joelene
when she wrote the song. Yeah, yes, Mark, there's.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Pictures of young Dolly Parton, and the question always is
what did Jolene look like? Because if you're leaving Dolly
Parton for Jolene had better been top five, dead or alive.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, but this is Dolly talking about how beautiful Jolene was.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I need a young need a young picture, young Joelene.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
The Magic had fired Jamal Moseley. Here we go, so
Billy Donovan and I was told this a while ago
when it looked like he was going to leave the Bulls,
that where would his two places be that he would
go to. One was Golden State and the other one
was the Orlando Magic. Well, the Magic make the playoffs.
(05:46):
They're playing, well, Jamal Mosley is not going to get
fired if they end up winning that series and move on.
No matter what would happen that next round. But Billy Donovan,
maybe this time he does take the Orlando magic job.
I did talk about the Sixers Joe Llend talking about
don't sell your tickets to the Knicks when they come
(06:07):
to town. Twenty twenty four, the Sixers ownership group bought
more than two thousand tickets during a first round playoff
series to keep them out of the hands of the
New York Knicks. Now, this time around, ticket sales will
be limited to those located in the quote Greater Philadelphia
area end quote. The team plans to make sure that
(06:29):
this is the case by confirming where you live based
on the credit card billing address of the purchaser to
make sure the Knicks are still going to get tickets. Yeah,
I mean, we're not fooling anybody here. You're going to
get your ticket and tickets and no matter what, you'll
probably sell them if you think you can make, you know,
(06:50):
good money, because the Nick So the Nick folks are
going to be coming in and spending money here. So
let's see best and worst of the week phone calls
coming up, Dylan, the poll results from number one and
what are you going to go with?
Speaker 4 (07:05):
An hour two, our latest pulled in was would you
take a triple crown win if it meant being jockey
hit the rest of your life? About sixty seven percent
say no. For the second hour. Going from Paully about
the Derby is when it comes to winning a race,
who should get the most credit the horse, the jockey,
the trainer or the owner?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Okay, And I would say I.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Think the trainer ends up getting a lot of the credit.
They tend to be the most famous. Obviously, Secretary, There's
been famous horses, but the trainers who win tend to
I think, get associated the most with it.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Nile Rodgers is on this list of great songwriters, Lucinda
Williams is on here as a great songwriter, and most
of these people belong on this list, I would think.
But I still would be if you can see Todd
you should know. Well, I don't know if you'll know.
But Stevie wonders on this did Hall of Oates write
(08:02):
their own music?
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Everything I'm looking at suggest that the majority were from
Hall of notates, that Daryl Hall wrote a lot of them,
John Hoates did a few, There was some collaboration. There
was a woman named Sarah something that was part of it,
but that they supposedly wrote most of their own music.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Paul Simon is on here, Jay Z is on here. Obviously,
Taylor Swift is on here. I mean there's missy Ello's
on here, Lionel Richie. Okay, if you're putting Lionel Ritchie
on there, I gotta put Billy Joel on there. And
I think that there is a podcast on this topic.
(08:39):
And I think somebody talked about Billy Joel's music being schlocky.
I think that was the word. But I mean Lionel
Ritchie had see. I don't want to do this, come
on now, no, I don't want to. I don't want
to be criticizing somebody to try to lift up somebody else,
(09:00):
but Lionel Ritchie, Billy Joel.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Yes, Mark worst song we Didn't Start the Fire or
dancing on the ceiling.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, let me ask Todd.
Speaker 7 (09:11):
I would go with the we.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
Didn't Start the Fire is not quite as good as
Dancing on the ceiling.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Okay, yes, Paul.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
It feels like these New York Times lists and other
lists there kind of want you to be upset about
a snub, And maybe the Billy Joel snub is on
purpose because Fiona Apple made the list. She had a
nice little two year run. She was famous for a
while and had some cool songs. I don't know if
she had the impact or success of Billy Joel. I'm
being very fair.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I'm surprised Cheryl Crow is not on here. I mean,
she's a Hall of Famer. But Chris Stapleton did not
make it. Oh my god, all right, I don't want
to get too caught up in it. I just I
was surprised at that. Yes, Dylan, I think we could.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Agree that Billy Joel and Lionel Richie are both kind
of shlocky.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Yeah they're together. Yeah, but I mean, nobody's written a
hit in whatever forty years, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Yes, part of writing a song is making it successful,
not just being cool and hip or whatever. Like whatever
worked for Lionel Richie worked.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Yeah, and uh, Lionel Richie was Commodorees. He was, yeah, right,
but I don't know how much he wrote for the Commodoores.
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
I mean, I'll take brick House if I write brick House,
I'm all right, yeah, yes, Ton, what'd.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
You think of running with the Night Playing in the Shadows?
That was a pretty cool song. Linel, Richie, I don't don't.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I don't know if I'm familiar with that.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
They were running with the night, playing in the shadows,
just you and till the morning last.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Still not familiar, Okay, No, I mean, you know, maybe
they should have expanded it to fifty. All you gotta
do is be alive all on notes, Billy Joel, They're alive. Yes, Dylan.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
I think there was a massive oversight here and that
Todd wasn't even considered for the list. He has written
numerous original songs.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
You know what snub talking pis.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
Let's get quizical bump apple for sure. I don't know
what the other one?
Speaker 5 (11:24):
All right, questions that take that Stevie Wonders.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
Radio conversation you shot.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
To answer, rich just right, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (11:37):
Don't google, Let's just try.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
To think it, alright, alrighty, alrighty, yes, Mark.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
To you, who's the greatest living songwriter just overall?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Dylan? Yeah, I'd say Dylan. He's still writing good music.
He can't sing good music, but he's still uh usually
gets favorable reviews for his music that he's still writing today.
So I would say Dylan with what he wrote, what
it meant, and it still continues to perform. Yes, Mark, I.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
Know your issue was somebody these guys haven't written hits
in forty fifty years, but I think it's basically at
their apex. They were just churning out just unbelievable songs. Correct.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yes, yes, yeah, Paul.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
That's like saying Jim Brown hasn't had a thousand yards season.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Yeah, but he's dead, so he couldn't be on the list.
Speaker 8 (12:33):
Ok.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I love how it is that you get because during
the commercial break, I could hear you on the phone.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Going, yeah, did you see the list?
Speaker 3 (12:43):
You're talking to someone about the I was.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Talking to my wife because I'm looking for an audience
at home, and you know, the dog will listen, but
you know she can't respond. The cat, he's not listening.
My daughters usually have their ear buds in, and then
there's my wife, and so I'm complaining about how do
(13:05):
you not have Billy Jo? Like I don't. I don't
understand that. And then I started bringing up other names,
and then all of a sudden, I'm getting worked up
and there's really nobody to play off of. Yes, Marvin,
So that means the list did its job. Yeah, but
I don't like being toyed with like that. It's like
when the mother Ship had Michael Jordan the greatest college
(13:26):
player of all time. It was embarrassing. Even Mike would say,
no way, Leuel Sindor is the greatest college player of
all time. It's not even close. But it's like, we
got to get eyeballs on this, didn't The WNBA just
have something about the top ten players and they put
(13:49):
Caitlin Clark on the page. And she's tenth on the list,
So you gotta put her up there just so you
can tune. You know you're gonna read it. Bait and switch, click.
Bait and switch is what it is.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Yes, Paul, I think I had the football comp to
the snub of Billy Joel. Should I say it or
do it?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Now? I mean, is it worthy to go?
Speaker 3 (14:14):
No, it's not worthy that I would say Terry Bradshaw.
Terry Bradshaw never gets in conversations with great quarterbacks. But
if you look at the numbers for Super Bowls, and
he was responsible for a lot of getting him there
and winning, but he never gets discussed Billy Joel's success.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You can't argue with Okay, who was better in the seventies,
Billy Joel Jewel or Terry Bradshaw, that old question.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
That's a great one, though. I think it's fair because
Billy Joel's success. You may think it's hokey now, but
he was gigantic in the seventies and eighties.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
And he's dating Elle McPherson and Christy Brinkley reportedly at
the same time.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
His list is better than your list.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Yes, but is his kiss on my list?
Speaker 9 (14:59):
Up?
Speaker 7 (15:00):
It's tod and Billy Joel is doing it by himself.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
You know, you got uh, you know, he was like
a one man gang, so that I would lean towards.
But Terry Bradshaw had a terrible tow great defense, Steel
Curtain and.
Speaker 7 (15:10):
Stalworth and Swan and frank O Harris, Rocky Blyier.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
No, no, we we we know.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
I'm just that's why lean towyst off the two hokeey ones.
I would go less hokey to Billy Joel.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I don't think Billy. I don't think Terry Bradshaw was hokey.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
But their Paul's pointed about like what we you know,
putting those two together and making them analogous. It's because
of their hokiness that they would make an analogy between
those two being left out of things.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Get Terry Bradshaw and Billy Joel on the phone there
in Todd.
Speaker 7 (15:38):
That would be subject.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, you'd be in heaven if.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
That would be a fantastic hy Billy.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I just want to say I I I wanted to
move to Allentown because I wanted to live. I'm living
here in Allentown. I didn't start to fire Hull. I
wanted to play the piano.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
I could sing the Pittsburgh song to Terry.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Yeah, that'd be great, Yes, Marv.
Speaker 5 (15:59):
I could just hear Fritzy Ah, Billy, I've been a
fan for.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
The longest time.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
I see what I did. It was a song for
the longest time.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Uh, Todd. I think you and me the only ones
who've seen Billy John concert.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
I saw him multiple times.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, you saw him with Elton John.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
I did.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
I sung with Elton John. I saw him separately, I'd
say at least three times, and it was great. And
I saw him recently for the last concert that he did.
I don't know if he's ever going to perform again
because of health issues, but I saw him at Mohegan's
Sun last February and that was his last concert so far.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yeah. I got seen him at the Garden in the
same row with Christy Brinkley.
Speaker 7 (16:36):
That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah. And then they're, uh, let's see who do they have? Well,
his daughter sang yeah, Alexa. Yeah, Alexa came on stage.
Speaker 7 (16:48):
They put the boat on the stage too, which was
really weird. I don't know how they want to put
the whole yacht big go on there, the down Easter.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Yeah, take a ladies, gentlemen, the down Easter Alexa and
she came on there on the boat and they pulled
it in with like a rope.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
But don't you think if you're saying hey, Alexa and
then the Alexa thing comes on every time you're talking to.
Speaker 7 (17:05):
Her, that would be problematic.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Yes, I think how about we take a break?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, no, no, no, no, we're not doing this. Yes.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
If this were nineteen eighty seven, it would have been
the greatest sy radiot.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
It'd be a great segment there. I think we answer
our own question why we don't win a sports Emmy,
take a break. We're back after this.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
Orlando Magic could fire their head coach and Billy Donovan
could be the front runner for that. Jamal Moseley got
and he was there for five years, made the playoffs
the last three years, bout out in the first round
those three years. But if they win this series, no
matter what happens the following series, does he keep his job?
(18:41):
He's still the same coach. If they win that game
and they get swept by Cleveland, does he get fired? Yes, Marman,
I think so.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
It kind of felt inevitable anything outside of a crazy championship.
Maybe Eastern Conference championship run only because I think there's
been you know, looming issues between Polo Bancaro, the head coach.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
And I wonder if they've been entertaining the idea of
Billy Donovan maybe quietly privately laying ground worked there. They
got to move on from Jalen Suggs. Jalen Suggs shouldn't
be in that rotation. He was shooting, you know, twenty
(19:21):
nine percent I think from three point range. And I
know he's had injuries. He'd just never been a great player.
You know, Bain played well, Bronze Wagner is a really
good player. Paolo is a really good player. They have
a nucleus here. This is one of those where you
kind of go in, you add a little bit, and
then all of a sudden, like you're legitimate.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Yes, Marv and they were the eighth seed, but their
eight seed was misleading because they kind of underachieved all
season long. I think Jamal Crawford said that also, like
they weren't your typical eight seed. It wasn't like the
Charlotte Hornets that got in.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Zach and Knoxville. Good morning, Zach, what's on your mind? ADP?
Speaker 11 (20:00):
Thanks for taking my call Graymond saying that Steve Kerr
hindered him as like Dylan saying that you're holding him back.
I think could be a fringe podcaster and probably a
forklift operator at best. But my question is, do you
think anybody in the East can compete with whoever comes
(20:21):
out of the West. I think any team that comes
out of the West it can beat any team that
comes out of the East.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Do you agree with that. It's hard to picture if
it's the Knicks or the Sixers or the Calves Detroit.
I just I mean, I'm looking at the odds here
from DraftKings the Thunder minus one forty five. Then it's
a big big drop to the Spurs at plus three seventy,
and then a really big drop to the Knicks third
(20:46):
at plus eight fifty. Then it goes down to the
Pistons plus eighteen hundred. I mean, they're really not factoring
in the Spurs would be in the Western Conference finals,
and if the Thunder played the Knicks, they'd be big,
big favorites there, huge favorites with everybody else. Piston, Scavs, Sixers,
(21:08):
Timberbool Sir plus ten thousand to win it all. Yes, MARVH.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
We haven't talked about the Thunder or the Spurs because
they've been done playing for the last week. They took
care of business and everyone else is going to six
or seven games.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Sounds like you're yelling at people.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
I'm sorry, guys, I was just I just riled up.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Okay, fair enough. Ernie in Houston, Hi, Ernie, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 12 (21:34):
Hello, mister Dan Patrick. You are amazing because you make
women want to listen to your show. Thank you for
bringing up Billy Joel. Well, we have six brothers. They're
all athletes, and I listened to you because my husband
of thirty six years and my beautiful son, who's an
all star athlete, Laurence Sandoval, we all listen to Billy Joel.
(21:57):
I mean, what is going on? Why is he not
on that list? The piano man?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
I agree, Ernie, and thank you. You are correct that
women love to listen to this show. I don't know
if they love to watch the show. Did you say
watch the show? I think it's just listening, you know, maybe, Ernie,
do you watch the show or listen to the show?
Speaker 12 (22:19):
I do both. Oh oh wait, I'm in the car
with my husband. We listen to the reruns, and then
when I'm at home in the morning, I listen to
you because you've really elevated the importance of sports. You
really acclimate what it means to be a true sportsman.
It's all about.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Life, really, Ernie, Ernie, if you're going to rank the
handsomeness of the show, could you do that for me?
Speaker 12 (22:48):
Well, I have six brothers, so I can say truly,
I would give you a five.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
I get a far I like, yeah.
Speaker 12 (22:56):
I like, well out of seven. You know, when you
you know, when you think about it, when you think.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
About I know it's out of ten.
Speaker 12 (23:04):
Ernie like, no, no, no, we don't do ten in fashion.
You do, Chevin, you do.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I'm talking about looks.
Speaker 12 (23:11):
Oh, looks. I would say eight because I like sweats.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Okay, Well, then Fritzie's probably a ten.
Speaker 12 (23:23):
Well, hey, take what you will. But the reality is
you are elevating sports.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Well, thank you, Ernie, you elevated me. Yes, Dylan, sounds
like Ernie didn't want to answer the question. I don't
think something. I don't think, so.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
They'll noncommittal there with the number there.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
It's okay. Kenny in Boston, Kenny, how's morale today?
Speaker 13 (23:46):
Thanks Sake MC call DP best of the weekend is
just playoff hockey in general. I'm a cane fan, but honestly,
any NHL game you watch in playoffs is just awesome.
You can't beat the intensity, the energy of it. But
worse of the weekend Dan is getting to a big
fight my wife and it was strictly due to Fritzy
driving home from a trip trying to kill time, and
(24:06):
each took turns putting on a podcast.
Speaker 8 (24:09):
Thought.
Speaker 13 (24:10):
We tried the toodcast from last week, and needless to say,
the wife was not happy. She's questioning now what I'm
interested in and my character even your show, to be honest.
So I'm in David's control VP, So thanks Tom.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
I tell everybody the toodcast is not for everybody, but
everybody should at least try it. It is pretty fascinating
in the you know, it's a beautiful mind. The movie
Russell Crowe. This is a perverted mind starring Todd Fritz.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
It shouldn't cause marital discourse, no or discord or any.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Kind of problems like that. It's all it's good, clean fun.
I don't know how clean it is, but it's good.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Fuck, it's not clean, it's good fun Russell and Philly.
Hi Russ, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (24:55):
Hey Dan, Dan? It's six one two turn them. We're
the BB. Thanks for taking my call. So best and
worst of the weekend? I got two.
Speaker 14 (25:05):
Best.
Speaker 8 (25:06):
My son went on a senior Prime Friday night June
second of we graduating in July thirty first, and we
had it off to college to play football. And my
best is after forty two years, we finally beat the
sixth Celtics in the playoffs and we're on our way
to beat on the Knicks. And stop crying, Jeleen Brown,
(25:26):
your guys are up three to one. You should have
closed it out.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
We had the chair, all right, Thank you Russell. Yeah,
he's right. But you know when you say there's an
agenda and referees told you that they had an agenda.
Once again, I'll be shocked if Jalen Brown does not
get fined for those comments. Now, this is a different commissioner.
This is a player friendly commissioner. But this was on
(25:52):
his Twitch account. It wasn't after the game, it wasn't postgame.
It was on his Twitch account. Duane in Pittsburgh, Hi Dwayne,
Hey Dan, how you doing good?
Speaker 14 (26:07):
Can hear me. Hey, before I wanted to talk about
that Joe Morgan bottle of wine because I made it.
But before we go to Joe Morgan, what about Eddie
Vedder of Pearl Jam.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
As his songwriter. I don't know if that's a collaborative effort,
but I don't know if Eddie is solely responsible for
writing Pearl Jam.
Speaker 14 (26:31):
But not everything. But he wrote most of those songs
on ten, which was one of the biggest and best
albums ever.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (26:39):
Probably that was his demo tape to get the job.
I meant, pretty good songwriter.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah, and thank you for the bottle that you sent.
It's a Joe Morgan bottle of wine that was made
by the folks who run the Roberto Clemente Museum and
then Dylan brought it back. And thank you Dwayne for
doing that. Or going to be the Big Red Machine.
I was kind of surprised that in Pittsburgh they didn't
like Big Red Machine and vice versa big rivalry there.
(27:09):
But thank you for sending that eight seven to seven
three DP show. Still haven't heard anything about Steve Kerr. Now.
There have been articles that say either he is going
to leave, he's making seventeen million do you want to
have that amount of money on the books with a
coach and you're not going to be a championship caliber team.
(27:32):
I think Orlando would be interesting. If you're going to coach,
you either want to go where you've got a chance
to win again, or maybe you have a team sort
of in the embryonic stages of being that team, and
Orlando you can make the argument that that isn't that's
a good nucleus there. You know they're off the radar
(27:53):
because they're in Orlando. Does Billy Donovan take the Orlando
John I don't see Steve Kerr going to the Chicago Bulls,
even though he's beloved in the city. But Orlando, I
could see Billy Donovan doing that.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, Polm, if you're a Golden State, how much do
you want to keep Steve Kerr?
Speaker 2 (28:16):
I wouldn't because I'm not winning. You almost have to
have a change in philosophy. But here's the hard part.
You know you still have Steph and playing at a
pretty high level. What do you do with Draymond Jimmy Butler?
I mean, can you blow it up and still keep
Steph Curry? But I don't know. Do I want to
(28:39):
I mean that franchise spends money. They're not afraid of
the aprons. But do I want to pay Steve Kerr
for a team that might be a five hundred team?
And I would say no, But if you've still had
I mean, they're just not a championship caliber team. I
think they're still entertain because Steph is still wonderful and
(29:03):
Draymond can be entertaining good and bad. But even they've
kind of missed on some rookies. The James Wiseman one,
you get him second pick. Overall, that's where you're going
to go, Oh my god. The riches, the luxuries that
we have here. I was also looking at this, if
(29:25):
this matters to you, it does me. The regular season
defensive ratings. Now I'm not always big on this, but
the Pistons were the number one rated defensive team, Spurs
were second, then the Knicks. How can the Knicks be
third with Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 5 (29:46):
Yes, Marvin, I think they have great defensive players like
Miles Bridges and not Miles Bridges, woof Og and Michale Bridges.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Yeah, the Lakers are fourth on the list.
Speaker 5 (29:58):
Marky Small, Yes, he's making up.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
I mean, come on, So the top four highest rated
defensive teams are still in the playoffs, the Rockets, after that,
the Magic, Timberwolves. Okay, see Celtics, and then the Cavaliers.
But you know, you start to look at this and
this is when defense matters when you get to the postseason.
(30:27):
But I can't imagine, like the Lakers the fourth best
defensive rating. Marcus Smart must have really cleaned up a
lot of messages there, Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (30:38):
DeAndre eight and to maybe they played good team defense.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Yeah, okay, team defense. Let's see David in Ohio. Hi, David,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (30:49):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (30:50):
Dan, I hope you had a good weekend. The best
of my weekend watching the Cavs and the Raptors last
night and Friend of the Show Reggielois. Just Miller Junior
third goes up into the third row to help out
Donovan Mitchell. I believe up in the third row after
he was chasing a ball, and I thought that was
(31:10):
that was so cool.
Speaker 14 (31:11):
So thank you?
Speaker 2 (31:12):
All right, David. Steve Kerr, I think is going to
go into the media again. You're sixty years of age.
You got a Hall of Fame career, coaching career, give
one titles. You're as decorated as just about anybody in
the history of the game. ESPN probably desperately would love
(31:35):
to have him their reports. Steve could go to ESPN.
I could see that. But man, that's a grind. And
to be a championship caliber team to win and then
all of a sudden you're just an average team. I
(31:55):
mean that Phil Jackson, he mastered it. He knew. Hey,
I got I got Michael Jordan, I got Scottie Pippen.
Now we got Rodman winning championships. All right, they want
to take the wrecking ball to it. They're not going
to bring back everybody to win another championship. I'll go
to the Lakers, and we saw what happened there. I
(32:17):
couldn't imagine Phil Jackson, even though going to the Knicks
to try to run that organization didn't work out. But
it's got to be so tough that you're one of
the winner's greatest winners and then all of a sudden,
games aren't going to matter. Now I know they matter,
but you're not playing for high stakes. And having played
(32:39):
with the Bulls, he was on the Spurs coaching staff
then you have Steph and Clay Draymond, You're winning titles
and then you're going to go to what That's why
I think I'd go back to the media. Maybe do
that for five years. Yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Steve Kerr four titles, twelve seasons in Golden State. Remember
when he got hired. I just saw a couple of articles.
I don't think he had coached head coached any game
at any level.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Well, he turned down Phil Jackson with the Knicks, and
I thought, wow, yeah, because then I thought, all right,
what's he see that? Maybe I'm not seeing This is
kind of like when Pete Carroll went to Seattle. Now,
I know there was probably some other reasons why he
left college football, but Seattle wasn't Seattle when he went there.
(33:31):
But and you know with Golden State, they weren't that
the motion offense, shooting threes. You know that when Steve,
you know, with Mark Jackson there, they were a different
team and Steve came in and like, we're going to
change this, or maybe Steph Curry changed Steve Kerr. Yeah, Paulin,
I don't.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Want to use the word lucky, but Steve Kerr being
fortunate to play or coach with certain players. He played
with Michael Jordan, he played underneath Pop. He's coach Steph
Curry at his peak. I mean alignment works, the right alignment.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Yeah, I think it's fortunate you can for it. Yeah,
he's fortunate. He's fortunate. How about we take a break.
When we come back, we will give you our best
and worst of the weekend.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
The Toodcast review four point nine stars out of five,
So congratulations Todd on your podcast, available at Danpatrick dot com.
A couple of comments here the todcast is what happens
when confidence outruns direction, no structure, no plan all Todd.
(34:51):
Another one says five stars. Somehow makes less sense the
more you listen.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Okay, yeah, Paul, what's the record minute age to listen
to this show? To the Toddcast, like the is there
a minimum.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Like a board game like ages?
Speaker 8 (35:10):
Whatever?
Speaker 5 (35:10):
Nine and up?
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Yeah, I'd go older than that. I'd say twenty one.
Is that fair? Legally? Eighteen I think makes you an adult?
Speaker 8 (35:21):
Right?
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Twenty one?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Though just for a little buffer. I mean, it's it's
more than PG thirteen. It's our but like it's a funny,
friendly R. Yes, Marvin, I.
Speaker 5 (35:33):
Think it's NC seventeen.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (35:35):
I think it's the Showgirls of podcasting.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Whoa there, Showgirls. Let's go around the room. Best and
worst of the weekend, Todd, I'm gonna start with you, Okay.
Speaker 7 (35:46):
Russell from Philly will appreciate this one.
Speaker 6 (35:48):
The Sixers were an NBA record oh in eighteen when
trying three to one in a series. The Sufflics were
thirty two and oh when having a three one series lead.
But Philly beats Boston to playoffs Sally for the first
time since nineteen eighty two and Mexican em beat first
team teammates in NBA history.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
Each have at least thirty ten and five in a
game seven.
Speaker 6 (36:06):
Worst your reds against the Pirates Salley in the bottom
of the second inning, off you guys saw this. Cincinnati
pitchers combined to walk seven consecutive batters as part of
a five run inning. Pittsburgh scored their first four runs
in the inning without having to put the ball in play.
The Pirates batted around three times in the first four
inning had every pirate started driving at least one run,
and for the second straight game, Reds capt Jose Travino
(36:26):
had to pitch the seventh and eighth innings.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
The staff through a.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
Total of one hundred and eleven strikes and one hundred balls.
Come on, Reds, let's get it together.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Still in best and worst, all.
Speaker 9 (36:35):
Right, Dan?
Speaker 4 (36:35):
My best the weekend, Cam Young because wire to Wire
wins the CADOLLGIC Championship. Even called it penalty on himself.
There's ball moved out address. But he's playing some pretty
good golf lately. My worst, Dan, there were seven Puerto
Rican jockeys in the Kentucky derby. Mario, our director, who
happened to be perto Rican, bet on six of them.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Not the win the winner. That is a true story, Mario,
who has uneven breast? Oh no, by the way, Uh
we found that out last week. Yeah we did. Yeah. Uh.
You guys took a picture in Pittsburgh and a bar
(37:16):
and had your shirts off.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
When I look comparison, yes that means there's problems, yes, yes, Paul,
So this.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Is your breast of the weekend. Oh okay, blue, Oh
okay yeah so uh That's interesting because Mario was bragging
about the Puerto Rican jockey winning. He didn't say that
he didn't bet on that horse. Oh but he did not. Okay, Uh,
(37:42):
Marvin Best and worst.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
God Mario's breastless. This awful. Best of the weekend. Jared
Allen twenty two points and nineteen rebounds, three block, twop
like shack in the second half, all for the Cavaliers.
Worst of the weekend, our boy read Shepherd four for
a team from the field, one for ten from three
and they're lost against the Lakers. They needed him to
(38:05):
kind of just step up, not even be Kevin Dura,
but just step up a little.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Yeah, Paul Best and Worst. Best of the weekend.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
NBC's iconic horseback reporter Donna Brothers after twenty six Kentucky
Derby's is retiring. That's a very tough sideline job, interviewing
a horse after a race out the Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
Let me see Melissa Stark be on a horse on
the sidelines for a Kansas City Chiefs game.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Yeah, and she did a really good interview with the
jockey she did. Yeah, it was it was good TV.
The worst of the weekend. Just before the Kentucky Derby started.
There was a horse called Great White and it got
kind of bumped before it got into the thing and
jumped up, fell back over, almost crushed the jockey and
they were both scratched from the race. And it was
(38:46):
the jockey's first time in the Kentucky Derby. Mmm, could
have been really dangerous.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Imagine that's your horse. You got your family, big moment
all day, all that they gets stressed up, all of
a sudden it's the Derby, and all of a sudden
your horse going into the gate and then all of a
sudden not going in the gate. Yes, still I.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Will say Great White had some fire though. If that
horse was allowed to race, it's gonna do some damage.
Speaker 11 (39:13):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Stacy in North Carolina, H Stacy, what's on your mind?
Speaker 8 (39:18):
Hey dang, good morning. Thank you.
Speaker 15 (39:19):
I'm a smooth one fifty. I wanted to give you
for the poll. Qush and Fleetwood mac uh Nick Fleetwood
Omer's Uh, how was that not on the list or
did not miss it? And they are on the list.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Well, this is individual artist, this isn't team and I
don't know, you know, Lindsey Buckingham probably had more to
do with the modern day version of Fleetwood Mac. But
I don't know if he was, you know, I think
they all wrote under Fleetwood Mac. Yes, mar Oh, Contrey Montferey.
There are a couple of teams, Brian and Eddie Holland.
(40:00):
They wrote a lot of early Motown hits for the Supremes.
But they weren't in a band, correct.
Speaker 5 (40:05):
But he was just saying duos, okay, and Jimmy Jame,
Terry lewis ornest list, and.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
But they weren't artists, they were just writers, correct.
Speaker 5 (40:14):
But I think he was just saying just teams overall
instead of just individual songwriters by themselves.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Yeah, do you want to put them in there? This
is one of those where if you put somebody in,
you got to take somebody out.
Speaker 5 (40:29):
Yes, I don't see Billy Joe from Green Day in here.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
I'm not even going down that road. Not gonna do that. No,
nice try, Marvin. I am staying in my Green Day lane.
Speaker 5 (40:43):
Come on, it's something unpredictable, but and it's right.
Speaker 7 (40:48):
I hope you have the time of your life.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
More phone calls coming up, Best and worst of the
weekend are good, buddy. One of our favorites, Jim Jackson
will join us. They just work looking over the weekend
EH seven seven three DP Show email address Dpatdanpatrick dot
com and our Twitter handle at DP show. Todd is here,
So's Dylan, Marvin, Paul Yours truly in the back room, guys,
(41:14):
final hour on this Monday, right after this
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio our.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Two in this Monday, what you saw that you liked,
you didn't like? Best and Worst of the weekend. Operator
Tyler is sitting by doing nothing but answering your phone
calls eight seven seven three DP show. We say good morning.
Those watching on Peacock also NBC Sports Network. Are those
listening on our radio affiliates around the country. For my birthday,
(00:25):
Rectech is giving away a grill. You can go to
rectech dot com and search the Dan Patrick Show for details,
then tune in for Friday, May fifteenth. Chef Greg from
Rectech will be here to give it away. Give it away,
Give it away now ore ec t eq. Speaking of music,
picked up the New York Times magazine. Taylor Swift was
(00:48):
on the cover, and I go, all right, I'll read
about Taylor Swift and it was the fifty Greatest Living
American Songwriters. And I thought, okay, I'll look at that.
And you go through and you see Bob Dylan is
in there, Carol King is in there and gave us
the great album Tapestry. You got outcast in there. So
(01:11):
there's bad bunnies in there. There's a variety of artists
in there, and you're kind of going through Stevie Wonders
in there, and you're going, okay, Bruce Springsteen, all right.
Then all of a sudden, I go, well, Hallan Oates
are still alive. I think they wrote most of their music.
(01:33):
And then I go, Billy Joel is still alive. I
think he wrote most of his music. They're not in there.
So the Top fifty American Living American songwriters is it
Top fifty or Top thirty? Paul, I got thirty. Oh, well,
maybe they should have gone to fifty, so then Billy
Joel and Hallan Oates would have made that. But I
(01:53):
was kind of surprised at this list that and some
of the some of the artists I didn't know, and
some of them are just songwriters, but I did. I
was kind of surprised that hall of Oates and Billy
Joel didn't make the cut.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, Paul, I'm reading the list, and I'm surprised with
Billy Joel because even if you don't like his music,
you can't argue with the success of his work for
you know, a ten year period. They did have a
PostScript article eleven Great American Songwriters who didn't make our
list The New York Times. They did that because of
the reaction.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Well, who did they put in there?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
All the people you just named it didn't make it,
like Billy Joel and the few.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Did hall of Oates make their list of because I don't.
I don't know if they wrote their music. I know
Billy Joel did.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Frank Ocean made it, Billy Joel did, Hall of Notes
did not.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Oh Well, to be fair to the list in New
York Times, I should check and see if hallan Oates
actually wrote their music. Kendrick Lamar is in there. You know,
there's people that deserve to be in there. It's just
kind of surprising that you have the the thirty greatest
living American songwriters and Billy Joel doesn't make that list.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Yes, Paul, does it matter if an artist writes his
songs or her songs?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
James Taylor's not in there, is he? Because I think
James Taylor wrote his music, so I'm not I don't
think James Taylor is in there among the top thirty. Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I remember seeing an interview with Garth Brooks, the great
country star at his peak, and he even said, I
don't write the songs. I'm giving songs. I'm the performer.
And because people were asking, oh, you don't write your
own songs if it's a bad thing as well. You
know Robert de Niro doesn't write his own lines.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Well, there are Sinatra didn't write anything. I don't think.
I mean, I get it. There's certain artists that will
take what you give them and then make it theirs.
But did Chris Stapleton make it in among the greatest
living American songwriters. I don't know if Chris did. He's
(04:04):
written over a thousand songs. He's written songs where he
hands them out to other people. He said, Adele, he
wrote a song for Adele this is he said. I
didn't even know who Adele was at the time, but
you know he wrote a song for her, wrote a
song for Darius Rucker. I mean, he's written a lot
(04:24):
of songs. I would think that he would be in there. Yes, Dylan, we.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Got Willie Nelson and Dolly Parton in there, and young Thug.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
And Willie Nelson should be in there. Willie is one
of the great songwriters of all time. And any list
that has Dolly Parton in I'm fine with that. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
Yeah, Dolly Parton should just be in there alone, just
for writing Joelene and I Will Always Love You in
the same day.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Joline, I think Dolly talked about she eventually ran into
Joe Lene years later, and she said basically that Joe
Lene didn't hold up like Joline, didn't look like Joelene
when she wrote the song. Yeah, yes, Mark, there's.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Pictures of young Dolly Parton, and the question always is
what did Jolene look like? Because if you're leaving Dolly
Parton for Jolene had better been top five, dead or alive.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, but this is Dolly talking about how beautiful Jolene was.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I need a young need a young picture, young Joelene.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
The Magic had fired Jamal Moseley. Here we go, so
Billy Donovan and I was told this a while ago
when it looked like he was going to leave the Bulls,
that where would his two places be that he would
go to. One was Golden State and the other one
was the Orlando Magic. Well, the Magic make the playoffs.
(05:46):
They're playing, well, Jamal Mosley is not going to get
fired if they end up winning that series and move on.
No matter what would happen that next round. But Billy Donovan,
maybe this time he does take the Orlando magic job.
I did talk about the Sixers Joe Llend talking about
don't sell your tickets to the Knicks when they come
(06:07):
to town. Twenty twenty four, the Sixers ownership group bought
more than two thousand tickets during a first round playoff
series to keep them out of the hands of the
New York Knicks. Now, this time around, ticket sales will
be limited to those located in the quote Greater Philadelphia
area end quote. The team plans to make sure that
(06:29):
this is the case by confirming where you live based
on the credit card billing address of the purchaser to
make sure the Knicks are still going to get tickets. Yeah,
I mean, we're not fooling anybody here. You're going to
get your ticket and tickets and no matter what, you'll
probably sell them if you think you can make, you know,
(06:50):
good money, because the Nick So the Nick folks are
going to be coming in and spending money here. So
let's see best and worst of the week phone calls
coming up, Dylan, the poll results from number one and
what are you going to go with?
Speaker 4 (07:05):
An hour two, our latest pulled in was would you
take a triple crown win if it meant being jockey
hit the rest of your life? About sixty seven percent
say no. For the second hour. Going from Paully about
the Derby is when it comes to winning a race,
who should get the most credit the horse, the jockey,
the trainer or the owner?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Okay, And I would say I.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Think the trainer ends up getting a lot of the credit.
They tend to be the most famous. Obviously, Secretary, There's
been famous horses, but the trainers who win tend to
I think, get associated the most with it.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Nile Rodgers is on this list of great songwriters, Lucinda
Williams is on here as a great songwriter, and most
of these people belong on this list, I would think.
But I still would be if you can see Todd
you should know. Well, I don't know if you'll know.
But Stevie wonders on this did Hall of Oates write
(08:02):
their own music?
Speaker 6 (08:03):
Everything I'm looking at suggest that the majority were from
Hall of notates, that Daryl Hall wrote a lot of them,
John Hoates did a few, There was some collaboration. There
was a woman named Sarah something that was part of it,
but that they supposedly wrote most of their own music.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Paul Simon is on here, Jay Z is on here. Obviously,
Taylor Swift is on here. I mean there's missy Ello's
on here, Lionel Richie. Okay, if you're putting Lionel Ritchie
on there, I gotta put Billy Joel on there. And
I think that there is a podcast on this topic.
(08:39):
And I think somebody talked about Billy Joel's music being schlocky.
I think that was the word. But I mean Lionel
Ritchie had see. I don't want to do this, come
on now, no, I don't want to. I don't want
to be criticizing somebody to try to lift up somebody else,
(09:00):
but Lionel Ritchie, Billy Joel.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Yes, Mark worst song we Didn't Start the Fire or
dancing on the ceiling.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, let me ask Todd.
Speaker 7 (09:11):
I would go with the we.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
Didn't Start the Fire is not quite as good as
Dancing on the ceiling.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Okay, yes, Paul.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
It feels like these New York Times lists and other
lists there kind of want you to be upset about
a snub, And maybe the Billy Joel snub is on
purpose because Fiona Apple made the list. She had a
nice little two year run. She was famous for a
while and had some cool songs. I don't know if
she had the impact or success of Billy Joel. I'm
being very fair.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I'm surprised Cheryl Crow is not on here. I mean,
she's a Hall of Famer. But Chris Stapleton did not
make it. Oh my god, all right, I don't want
to get too caught up in it. I just I
was surprised at that. Yes, Dylan, I think we could.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Agree that Billy Joel and Lionel Richie are both kind
of shlocky.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Yeah they're together. Yeah, but I mean, nobody's written a
hit in whatever forty years, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Yes, part of writing a song is making it successful,
not just being cool and hip or whatever. Like whatever
worked for Lionel Richie worked.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Yeah, and uh, Lionel Richie was Commodorees. He was, yeah, right,
but I don't know how much he wrote for the Commodoores.
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
I mean, I'll take brick House if I write brick House,
I'm all right, yeah, yes, Ton, what'd.
Speaker 6 (10:36):
You think of running with the Night Playing in the Shadows?
That was a pretty cool song. Linel, Richie, I don't don't.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I don't know if I'm familiar with that.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
They were running with the night, playing in the shadows,
just you and till the morning last.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Still not familiar, Okay, No, I mean, you know, maybe
they should have expanded it to fifty. All you gotta
do is be alive all on notes, Billy Joel, They're alive. Yes, Dylan.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
I think there was a massive oversight here and that
Todd wasn't even considered for the list. He has written
numerous original songs.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
You know what snub talking pis.
Speaker 7 (11:17):
Let's get quizical bump apple for sure. I don't know
what the other one?
Speaker 5 (11:24):
All right, questions that take that Stevie Wonders.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
Radio conversation you shot.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
To answer, rich just right, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (11:37):
Don't google, Let's just try.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
To think it, alright, alrighty, alrighty, yes, Mark.
Speaker 5 (11:47):
To you, who's the greatest living songwriter just overall?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Dylan? Yeah, I'd say Dylan. He's still writing good music.
He can't sing good music, but he's still uh usually
gets favorable reviews for his music that he's still writing today.
So I would say Dylan with what he wrote, what
it meant, and it still continues to perform. Yes, Mark, I.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
Know your issue was somebody these guys haven't written hits
in forty fifty years, but I think it's basically at
their apex. They were just churning out just unbelievable songs. Correct.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Yes, yes, yeah, Paul.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
That's like saying Jim Brown hasn't had a thousand yards season.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Yeah, but he's dead, so he couldn't be on the list.
Speaker 8 (12:33):
Ok.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I love how it is that you get because during
the commercial break, I could hear you on the phone.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Going, yeah, did you see the list?
Speaker 3 (12:43):
You're talking to someone about the I was.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Talking to my wife because I'm looking for an audience
at home, and you know, the dog will listen, but
you know she can't respond. The cat, he's not listening.
My daughters usually have their ear buds in, and then
there's my wife, and so I'm complaining about how do
(13:05):
you not have Billy Jo? Like I don't. I don't
understand that. And then I started bringing up other names,
and then all of a sudden, I'm getting worked up
and there's really nobody to play off of. Yes, Marvin,
So that means the list did its job. Yeah, but
I don't like being toyed with like that. It's like
when the mother Ship had Michael Jordan the greatest college
(13:26):
player of all time. It was embarrassing. Even Mike would say,
no way, Leuel Sindor is the greatest college player of
all time. It's not even close. But it's like, we
got to get eyeballs on this, didn't The WNBA just
have something about the top ten players and they put
(13:49):
Caitlin Clark on the page. And she's tenth on the list,
So you gotta put her up there just so you
can tune. You know you're gonna read it. Bait and switch, click.
Bait and switch is what it is.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Yes, Paul, I think I had the football comp to
the snub of Billy Joel. Should I say it or
do it?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Now? I mean, is it worthy to go?
Speaker 3 (14:14):
No, it's not worthy that I would say Terry Bradshaw.
Terry Bradshaw never gets in conversations with great quarterbacks. But
if you look at the numbers for Super Bowls, and
he was responsible for a lot of getting him there
and winning, but he never gets discussed Billy Joel's success.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You can't argue with Okay, who was better in the seventies,
Billy Joel Jewel or Terry Bradshaw, that old question.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
That's a great one, though. I think it's fair because
Billy Joel's success. You may think it's hokey now, but
he was gigantic in the seventies and eighties.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
And he's dating Elle McPherson and Christy Brinkley reportedly at
the same time.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
His list is better than your list.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Yes, but is his kiss on my list?
Speaker 9 (14:59):
Up?
Speaker 7 (15:00):
It's tod and Billy Joel is doing it by himself.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
You know, you got uh, you know, he was like
a one man gang, so that I would lean towards.
But Terry Bradshaw had a terrible tow great defense, Steel
Curtain and.
Speaker 7 (15:10):
Stalworth and Swan and frank O Harris, Rocky Blyier.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
No, no, we we we know.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
I'm just that's why lean towyst off the two hokeey ones.
I would go less hokey to Billy Joel.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I don't think Billy. I don't think Terry Bradshaw was hokey.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
But their Paul's pointed about like what we you know,
putting those two together and making them analogous. It's because
of their hokiness that they would make an analogy between
those two being left out of things.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Get Terry Bradshaw and Billy Joel on the phone there
in Todd.
Speaker 7 (15:38):
That would be subject.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, you'd be in heaven if.
Speaker 7 (15:42):
That would be a fantastic hy Billy.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I just want to say I I I wanted to
move to Allentown because I wanted to live. I'm living
here in Allentown. I didn't start to fire Hull. I
wanted to play the piano.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
I could sing the Pittsburgh song to Terry.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Yeah, that'd be great, Yes, Marv.
Speaker 5 (15:59):
I could just hear Fritzy Ah, Billy, I've been a
fan for.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
The longest time.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
I see what I did. It was a song for
the longest time.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Uh, Todd. I think you and me the only ones
who've seen Billy John concert.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
I saw him multiple times.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, you saw him with Elton John.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
I did.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
I sung with Elton John. I saw him separately, I'd
say at least three times, and it was great. And
I saw him recently for the last concert that he did.
I don't know if he's ever going to perform again
because of health issues, but I saw him at Mohegan's
Sun last February and that was his last concert so far.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yeah. I got seen him at the Garden in the
same row with Christy Brinkley.
Speaker 7 (16:36):
That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
Yeah. And then they're, uh, let's see who do they have? Well,
his daughter sang yeah, Alexa. Yeah, Alexa came on stage.
Speaker 7 (16:48):
They put the boat on the stage too, which was
really weird. I don't know how they want to put
the whole yacht big go on there, the down Easter.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Yeah, take a ladies, gentlemen, the down Easter Alexa and
she came on there on the boat and they pulled
it in with like a rope.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
But don't you think if you're saying hey, Alexa and
then the Alexa thing comes on every time you're talking to.
Speaker 7 (17:05):
Her, that would be problematic.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Yes, I think how about we take a break?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, no, no, no, no, we're not doing this. Yes.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
If this were nineteen eighty seven, it would have been
the greatest sy radiot.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
It'd be a great segment there. I think we answer
our own question why we don't win a sports Emmy,
take a break. We're back after this.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
Orlando Magic could fire their head coach and Billy Donovan
could be the front runner for that. Jamal Moseley got
and he was there for five years, made the playoffs
the last three years, bout out in the first round
those three years. But if they win this series, no
matter what happens the following series, does he keep his job?
(18:41):
He's still the same coach. If they win that game
and they get swept by Cleveland, does he get fired? Yes, Marman,
I think so.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
It kind of felt inevitable anything outside of a crazy championship.
Maybe Eastern Conference championship run only because I think there's
been you know, looming issues between Polo Bancaro, the head coach.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
And I wonder if they've been entertaining the idea of
Billy Donovan maybe quietly privately laying ground worked there. They
got to move on from Jalen Suggs. Jalen Suggs shouldn't
be in that rotation. He was shooting, you know, twenty
(19:21):
nine percent I think from three point range. And I
know he's had injuries. He'd just never been a great player.
You know, Bain played well, Bronze Wagner is a really
good player. Paolo is a really good player. They have
a nucleus here. This is one of those where you
kind of go in, you add a little bit, and
then all of a sudden, like you're legitimate.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Yes, Marv and they were the eighth seed, but their
eight seed was misleading because they kind of underachieved all
season long. I think Jamal Crawford said that also, like
they weren't your typical eight seed. It wasn't like the
Charlotte Hornets that got in.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Zach and Knoxville. Good morning, Zach, what's on your mind? ADP?
Speaker 11 (20:00):
Thanks for taking my call Graymond saying that Steve Kerr
hindered him as like Dylan saying that you're holding him back.
I think could be a fringe podcaster and probably a
forklift operator at best. But my question is, do you
think anybody in the East can compete with whoever comes
(20:21):
out of the West. I think any team that comes
out of the West it can beat any team that
comes out of the East.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Do you agree with that. It's hard to picture if
it's the Knicks or the Sixers or the Calves Detroit.
I just I mean, I'm looking at the odds here
from DraftKings the Thunder minus one forty five. Then it's
a big big drop to the Spurs at plus three seventy,
and then a really big drop to the Knicks third
(20:46):
at plus eight fifty. Then it goes down to the
Pistons plus eighteen hundred. I mean, they're really not factoring
in the Spurs would be in the Western Conference finals,
and if the Thunder played the Knicks, they'd be big,
big favorites there, huge favorites with everybody else. Piston, Scavs, Sixers,
(21:08):
Timberbool Sir plus ten thousand to win it all. Yes, MARVH.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
We haven't talked about the Thunder or the Spurs because
they've been done playing for the last week. They took
care of business and everyone else is going to six
or seven games.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Sounds like you're yelling at people.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
I'm sorry, guys, I was just I just riled up.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Okay, fair enough. Ernie in Houston, Hi, Ernie, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 12 (21:34):
Hello, mister Dan Patrick. You are amazing because you make
women want to listen to your show. Thank you for
bringing up Billy Joel. Well, we have six brothers. They're
all athletes, and I listened to you because my husband
of thirty six years and my beautiful son, who's an
all star athlete, Laurence Sandoval, we all listen to Billy Joel.
(21:57):
I mean, what is going on? Why is he not
on that list? The piano man?
Speaker 2 (22:02):
I agree, Ernie, and thank you. You are correct that
women love to listen to this show. I don't know
if they love to watch the show. Did you say
watch the show? I think it's just listening, you know, maybe, Ernie,
do you watch the show or listen to the show?
Speaker 12 (22:19):
I do both. Oh oh wait, I'm in the car
with my husband. We listen to the reruns, and then
when I'm at home in the morning, I listen to
you because you've really elevated the importance of sports. You
really acclimate what it means to be a true sportsman.
It's all about.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Life, really, Ernie, Ernie, if you're going to rank the
handsomeness of the show, could you do that for me?
Speaker 12 (22:48):
Well, I have six brothers, so I can say truly,
I would give you a five.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
I get a far I like, yeah.
Speaker 12 (22:56):
I like, well out of seven. You know, when you
you know, when you think about it, when you think.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
About I know it's out of ten.
Speaker 12 (23:04):
Ernie like, no, no, no, we don't do ten in fashion.
You do, Chevin, you do.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
I'm talking about looks.
Speaker 12 (23:11):
Oh, looks. I would say eight because I like sweats.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Okay, Well, then Fritzie's probably a ten.
Speaker 12 (23:23):
Well, hey, take what you will. But the reality is
you are elevating sports.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Well, thank you, Ernie, you elevated me. Yes, Dylan, sounds
like Ernie didn't want to answer the question. I don't
think something. I don't think, so.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
They'll noncommittal there with the number there.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
It's okay. Kenny in Boston, Kenny, how's morale today?
Speaker 13 (23:46):
Thanks Sake MC call DP best of the weekend is
just playoff hockey in general. I'm a cane fan, but honestly,
any NHL game you watch in playoffs is just awesome.
You can't beat the intensity, the energy of it. But
worse of the weekend Dan is getting to a big
fight my wife and it was strictly due to Fritzy
driving home from a trip trying to kill time, and
(24:06):
each took turns putting on a podcast.
Speaker 8 (24:09):
Thought.
Speaker 13 (24:10):
We tried the toodcast from last week, and needless to say,
the wife was not happy. She's questioning now what I'm
interested in and my character even your show, to be honest.
So I'm in David's control VP, So thanks Tom.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
I tell everybody the toodcast is not for everybody, but
everybody should at least try it. It is pretty fascinating
in the you know, it's a beautiful mind. The movie
Russell Crowe. This is a perverted mind starring Todd Fritz.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
It shouldn't cause marital discourse, no or discord or any.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Kind of problems like that. It's all it's good, clean fun.
I don't know how clean it is, but it's good.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Fuck, it's not clean, it's good fun Russell and Philly.
Hi Russ, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (24:55):
Hey Dan, Dan? It's six one two turn them. We're
the BB. Thanks for taking my call. So best and
worst of the weekend? I got two.
Speaker 14 (25:05):
Best.
Speaker 8 (25:06):
My son went on a senior Prime Friday night June
second of we graduating in July thirty first, and we
had it off to college to play football. And my
best is after forty two years, we finally beat the
sixth Celtics in the playoffs and we're on our way
to beat on the Knicks. And stop crying, Jeleen Brown,
(25:26):
your guys are up three to one. You should have
closed it out.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
We had the chair, all right, Thank you Russell. Yeah,
he's right. But you know when you say there's an
agenda and referees told you that they had an agenda.
Once again, I'll be shocked if Jalen Brown does not
get fined for those comments. Now, this is a different commissioner.
This is a player friendly commissioner. But this was on
(25:52):
his Twitch account. It wasn't after the game, it wasn't postgame.
It was on his Twitch account. Duane in Pittsburgh, Hi Dwayne,
Hey Dan, how you doing good?
Speaker 14 (26:07):
Can hear me. Hey, before I wanted to talk about
that Joe Morgan bottle of wine because I made it.
But before we go to Joe Morgan, what about Eddie
Vedder of Pearl Jam.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
As his songwriter. I don't know if that's a collaborative effort,
but I don't know if Eddie is solely responsible for
writing Pearl Jam.
Speaker 14 (26:31):
But not everything. But he wrote most of those songs
on ten, which was one of the biggest and best
albums ever.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (26:39):
Probably that was his demo tape to get the job.
I meant, pretty good songwriter.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yeah, and thank you for the bottle that you sent.
It's a Joe Morgan bottle of wine that was made
by the folks who run the Roberto Clemente Museum and
then Dylan brought it back. And thank you Dwayne for
doing that. Or going to be the Big Red Machine.
I was kind of surprised that in Pittsburgh they didn't
like Big Red Machine and vice versa big rivalry there.
(27:09):
But thank you for sending that eight seven to seven
three DP show. Still haven't heard anything about Steve Kerr. Now.
There have been articles that say either he is going
to leave, he's making seventeen million do you want to
have that amount of money on the books with a
coach and you're not going to be a championship caliber team.
(27:32):
I think Orlando would be interesting. If you're going to coach,
you either want to go where you've got a chance
to win again, or maybe you have a team sort
of in the embryonic stages of being that team, and
Orlando you can make the argument that that isn't that's
a good nucleus there. You know they're off the radar
(27:53):
because they're in Orlando. Does Billy Donovan take the Orlando
John I don't see Steve Kerr going to the Chicago Bulls,
even though he's beloved in the city. But Orlando, I
could see Billy Donovan doing that.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, Polm, if you're a Golden State, how much do
you want to keep Steve Kerr?
Speaker 2 (28:16):
I wouldn't because I'm not winning. You almost have to
have a change in philosophy. But here's the hard part.
You know you still have Steph and playing at a
pretty high level. What do you do with Draymond Jimmy Butler?
I mean, can you blow it up and still keep
Steph Curry? But I don't know. Do I want to
(28:39):
I mean that franchise spends money. They're not afraid of
the aprons. But do I want to pay Steve Kerr
for a team that might be a five hundred team?
And I would say no, But if you've still had
I mean, they're just not a championship caliber team. I
think they're still entertain because Steph is still wonderful and
(29:03):
Draymond can be entertaining good and bad. But even they've
kind of missed on some rookies. The James Wiseman one,
you get him second pick. Overall, that's where you're going
to go, Oh my god. The riches, the luxuries that
we have here. I was also looking at this, if
(29:25):
this matters to you, it does me. The regular season
defensive ratings. Now I'm not always big on this, but
the Pistons were the number one rated defensive team, Spurs
were second, then the Knicks. How can the Knicks be
third with Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 5 (29:46):
Yes, Marvin, I think they have great defensive players like
Miles Bridges and not Miles Bridges, woof Og and Michale Bridges.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Yeah, the Lakers are fourth on the list.
Speaker 5 (29:58):
Marky Small, Yes, he's making up.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
I mean, come on, So the top four highest rated
defensive teams are still in the playoffs, the Rockets, after that,
the Magic, Timberwolves. Okay, see Celtics, and then the Cavaliers.
But you know, you start to look at this and
this is when defense matters when you get to the postseason.
(30:27):
But I can't imagine, like the Lakers the fourth best
defensive rating. Marcus Smart must have really cleaned up a
lot of messages there, Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (30:38):
DeAndre eight and to maybe they played good team defense.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Yeah, okay, team defense. Let's see David in Ohio. Hi, David,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (30:49):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (30:50):
Dan, I hope you had a good weekend. The best
of my weekend watching the Cavs and the Raptors last
night and Friend of the Show Reggielois. Just Miller Junior
third goes up into the third row to help out
Donovan Mitchell. I believe up in the third row after
he was chasing a ball, and I thought that was
(31:10):
that was so cool.
Speaker 14 (31:11):
So thank you?
Speaker 2 (31:12):
All right, David. Steve Kerr, I think is going to
go into the media again. You're sixty years of age.
You got a Hall of Fame career, coaching career, give
one titles. You're as decorated as just about anybody in
the history of the game. ESPN probably desperately would love
(31:35):
to have him their reports. Steve could go to ESPN.
I could see that. But man, that's a grind. And
to be a championship caliber team to win and then
all of a sudden you're just an average team. I
(31:55):
mean that Phil Jackson, he mastered it. He knew. Hey,
I got I got Michael Jordan, I got Scottie Pippen.
Now we got Rodman winning championships. All right, they want
to take the wrecking ball to it. They're not going
to bring back everybody to win another championship. I'll go
to the Lakers, and we saw what happened there. I
(32:17):
couldn't imagine Phil Jackson, even though going to the Knicks
to try to run that organization didn't work out. But
it's got to be so tough that you're one of
the winner's greatest winners and then all of a sudden,
games aren't going to matter. Now I know they matter,
but you're not playing for high stakes. And having played
(32:39):
with the Bulls, he was on the Spurs coaching staff
then you have Steph and Clay Draymond, You're winning titles
and then you're going to go to what That's why
I think I'd go back to the media. Maybe do
that for five years. Yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Steve Kerr four titles, twelve seasons in Golden State. Remember
when he got hired. I just saw a couple of articles.
I don't think he had coached head coached any game
at any level.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Well, he turned down Phil Jackson with the Knicks, and
I thought, wow, yeah, because then I thought, all right,
what's he see that? Maybe I'm not seeing This is
kind of like when Pete Carroll went to Seattle. Now,
I know there was probably some other reasons why he
left college football, but Seattle wasn't Seattle when he went there.
(33:31):
But and you know with Golden State, they weren't that
the motion offense, shooting threes. You know that when Steve,
you know, with Mark Jackson there, they were a different
team and Steve came in and like, we're going to
change this, or maybe Steph Curry changed Steve Kerr. Yeah, Paulin,
I don't.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Want to use the word lucky, but Steve Kerr being
fortunate to play or coach with certain players. He played
with Michael Jordan, he played underneath Pop. He's coach Steph
Curry at his peak. I mean alignment works, the right alignment.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Yeah, I think it's fortunate you can for it. Yeah,
he's fortunate. He's fortunate. How about we take a break.
When we come back, we will give you our best
and worst of the weekend.

So congratulations Todd on your podcast, available at Danpatrick dot com.
A couple of comments here the todcast is what happens
when confidence outruns direction, no structure, no plan all Todd.
(34:51):
Another one says five stars. Somehow makes less sense the
more you listen.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Okay, yeah, Paul, what's the record minute age to listen
to this show? To the Toddcast, like the is there
a minimum.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Like a board game like ages?
Speaker 8 (35:10):
Whatever?
Speaker 5 (35:10):
Nine and up?
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Yeah, I'd go older than that. I'd say twenty one.
Is that fair? Legally? Eighteen I think makes you an adult?
Speaker 8 (35:21):
Right?
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Twenty one?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Though just for a little buffer. I mean, it's it's
more than PG thirteen. It's our but like it's a funny,
friendly R. Yes, Marvin, I.
Speaker 5 (35:33):
Think it's NC seventeen.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (35:35):
I think it's the Showgirls of podcasting.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Whoa there, Showgirls. Let's go around the room. Best and
worst of the weekend, Todd, I'm gonna start with you, Okay.
Speaker 7 (35:46):
Russell from Philly will appreciate this one.
Speaker 6 (35:48):
The Sixers were an NBA record oh in eighteen when
trying three to one in a series. The Sufflics were
thirty two and oh when having a three one series lead.
But Philly beats Boston to playoffs Sally for the first
time since nineteen eighty two and Mexican em beat first
team teammates in NBA history.
Speaker 7 (36:03):
Each have at least thirty ten and five in a
game seven.
Speaker 6 (36:06):
Worst your reds against the Pirates Salley in the bottom
of the second inning, off you guys saw this. Cincinnati
pitchers combined to walk seven consecutive batters as part of
a five run inning. Pittsburgh scored their first four runs
in the inning without having to put the ball in play.
The Pirates batted around three times in the first four
inning had every pirate started driving at least one run,
and for the second straight game, Reds capt Jose Travino
(36:26):
had to pitch the seventh and eighth innings.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
The staff through a.
Speaker 6 (36:29):
Total of one hundred and eleven strikes and one hundred balls.
Come on, Reds, let's get it together.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Still in best and worst, all.
Speaker 9 (36:35):
Right, Dan?
Speaker 4 (36:35):
My best the weekend, Cam Young because wire to Wire
wins the CADOLLGIC Championship. Even called it penalty on himself.
There's ball moved out address. But he's playing some pretty
good golf lately. My worst, Dan, there were seven Puerto
Rican jockeys in the Kentucky derby. Mario, our director, who
happened to be perto Rican, bet on six of them.
Speaker 2 (36:55):
Not the win the winner. That is a true story, Mario,
who has uneven breast? Oh no, by the way, Uh
we found that out last week. Yeah we did. Yeah. Uh.
You guys took a picture in Pittsburgh and a bar
(37:16):
and had your shirts off.
Speaker 4 (37:17):
When I look comparison, yes that means there's problems, yes, yes, Paul,
So this.
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Is your breast of the weekend. Oh okay, blue, Oh
okay yeah so uh That's interesting because Mario was bragging
about the Puerto Rican jockey winning. He didn't say that
he didn't bet on that horse. Oh but he did not. Okay, Uh,
(37:42):
Marvin Best and worst.
Speaker 5 (37:44):
God Mario's breastless. This awful. Best of the weekend. Jared
Allen twenty two points and nineteen rebounds, three block, twop
like shack in the second half, all for the Cavaliers.
Worst of the weekend, our boy read Shepherd four for
a team from the field, one for ten from three
and they're lost against the Lakers. They needed him to
(38:05):
kind of just step up, not even be Kevin Dura,
but just step up a little.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Yeah, Paul Best and Worst. Best of the weekend.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
NBC's iconic horseback reporter Donna Brothers after twenty six Kentucky
Derby's is retiring. That's a very tough sideline job, interviewing
a horse after a race out the Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
Let me see Melissa Stark be on a horse on
the sidelines for a Kansas City Chiefs game.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Yeah, and she did a really good interview with the
jockey she did. Yeah, it was it was good TV.
The worst of the weekend. Just before the Kentucky Derby started.
There was a horse called Great White and it got
kind of bumped before it got into the thing and
jumped up, fell back over, almost crushed the jockey and
they were both scratched from the race. And it was
(38:46):
the jockey's first time in the Kentucky Derby. Mmm, could
have been really dangerous.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Imagine that's your horse. You got your family, big moment
all day, all that they gets stressed up, all of
a sudden it's the Derby, and all of a sudden
your horse going into the gate and then all of a
sudden not going in the gate. Yes, still I.
Speaker 4 (39:06):
Will say Great White had some fire though. If that
horse was allowed to race, it's gonna do some damage.
Speaker 11 (39:13):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Stacy in North Carolina, H Stacy, what's on your mind?
Speaker 8 (39:18):
Hey dang, good morning. Thank you.
Speaker 15 (39:19):
I'm a smooth one fifty. I wanted to give you
for the poll. Qush and Fleetwood mac uh Nick Fleetwood
Omer's Uh, how was that not on the list or
did not miss it? And they are on the list.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Well, this is individual artist, this isn't team and I
don't know, you know, Lindsey Buckingham probably had more to
do with the modern day version of Fleetwood Mac. But
I don't know if he was, you know, I think
they all wrote under Fleetwood Mac. Yes, mar Oh, Contrey Montferey.
There are a couple of teams, Brian and Eddie Holland.
(40:00):
They wrote a lot of early Motown hits for the Supremes.
But they weren't in a band, correct.
Speaker 5 (40:05):
But he was just saying duos, okay, and Jimmy Jame,
Terry lewis ornest list, and.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
But they weren't artists, they were just writers, correct.
Speaker 5 (40:14):
But I think he was just saying just teams overall
instead of just individual songwriters by themselves.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
Yeah, do you want to put them in there? This
is one of those where if you put somebody in,
you got to take somebody out.
Speaker 5 (40:29):
Yes, I don't see Billy Joe from Green Day in here.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
I'm not even going down that road. Not gonna do that. No,
nice try, Marvin. I am staying in my Green Day lane.
Speaker 5 (40:43):
Come on, it's something unpredictable, but and it's right.
Speaker 7 (40:48):
I hope you have the time of your life.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
