at DP show. The Lakers they got one win in
Denver out of Denver, that series not in Denver, but
(00:48):
they got closed out last night and Lebron James was
asked about is this the last game as a Laker tonight?
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Was there any thought at all that you know this could.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Have been your last with the Lakers.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
I'm not going to answer that.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Appreciate it, okay, So son to no, not exactly a
yes either. And you got a lot of off season
here to talk about what you want to do, what
you can do the draft, what you do in the draft,
the role that his son plays. But I don't see
Lebron playing someplace else. Yes, don were surprised.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
Lebron wasn't a little more thoroughly or pretended to be
surly in that situation, like and we just lost, and
when we've got knocked down in the first round by
the same game as less than you're asking me in
my future or that not really his personality.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I think at his age, you're going to ask that question. Yeah,
I mean when we say, was that a fair question? Okay,
you don't have to answer, or you can answer it
in a certain way, but I think asking the question
that that's something that's not off the board.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Now, how you asked that?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Have you given any thought to you know, have you
played your last game as a lake I don't think
that's out of the question because we don't know. He
didn't answer it. He didn't say no, I'm playing. So
it becomes a fair question because of his answer because
he doesn't know.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
And he answered with a smile and he said I
appreciate it him. He was the exact opposite of being
annoyed by it.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
But it was Jamal Murray who was the star last
night down the stretch he had thirty two. And here
is his head coach, Michael Malone on Jamal Murray.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
The kid's a warrior.
Speaker 7 (02:27):
Man.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I can't say enough good things about Jamal Murray.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
The bigger the moment, the kid just continues to shine.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
He does. He wants the ball. They know that they're
in good hands if he has the ball. So two
of the four games Jamal Murray won. Those at the
Buzzer stat of the Day brought to you by panadi America,
the official trading cards of this program. Good morning, if
you're watching on Peacock, thank you for allowing us into
your homes and our radio affiliates around the country, numbering
(02:59):
over four hundred cities. Paul, question for hour two is
gonna be what seat O'Connor. We have big Shot Bob
Orie a little bit later on this morning.
Speaker 8 (03:08):
Yeah, big shot Bob he rules. Uh what a career
better signing yesterday? Travis kelcey or Jason kelce You want
to take a guess?
Speaker 9 (03:18):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (03:18):
Yeah, sixty one percent have Jason kelce being a huge winner.
Speaker 10 (03:22):
No offense, Travis, no offense.
Speaker 8 (03:24):
However, Yeah, in terms of making a bigger splash, ESPN
got a good deal.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah they did, yeh.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Because if you sign Jason, then you wonder does that
lead to Travis as well? So it might be a
signing that leads to another signing there. But Jason Kelcey
will be there for Monday Night Countdown. Travis says he's
going to play at least two more years in Kansas City.
They announced it on the same day.
Speaker 11 (03:48):
Yes, Paul, you asked last hour, has a team ever
had the non quarterback as the most famous person or maybe.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Co most famous people? But this is a tight end.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Tight end.
Speaker 11 (03:58):
Gronk wasn't more famous than Britain, not at all. But
there's they were both household names simultaneously. That's like one
of the few they think of the Cowboy When the
Cowboys had Michael Irvin, Emmett Smith and Troy Aikman Emmett
that they were like equal fame all through equal. They're
all great at what they did. They were famous for
(04:20):
different reasons, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Well, Emmett didn't have a personality. He was just a spectacular,
durable player.
Speaker 11 (04:26):
But he's his rushing yardage.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
But you didn't go, oh, the Cowboys, Emmit I think
you think the Cowboys in the Star is the star.
But but or Jimmy Johnson or Jerry Jones. I mean,
there are very few NFL teams Lawrence Taylor. You could
have said that maybe he was the face of the
franchise with the Giants over Phil Simms or or Bill Parcells,
(04:51):
but not many times. And you have a tight end
who is the face of the franchise. You have one
of the two greatest quarterbacks of all time, but the
tight end feels like he's the face of the franchise.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yes, Ton.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
The only reason I have.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
A problem with that is if you were to sell
like a do a promotion and say so and so
and the team are coming to town, it would be
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, no matter how popular train.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Would you say, Travis Kelton, the Chiefs are coming.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Maybe, Well, when you get Travis, you get Taylor, so
he maybe.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Well that the speculation would be there, maybe yeah, yes, Martin.
Speaker 5 (05:30):
But Mahomes is never not mentioned when they talk about
the Chiefs. True, So I think that's Cole You know
Mount Rushmore faces.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Okay, well he's in the conversation. Let's put it that way.
Travis Kelcey's in the conversation of being the face of
that franchise.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Yes, mart So Mount Rushmore, Chiefs, Mahomes, Kelsey, Taylor, Andy Reid.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
You're talking about modern day, So Taylor Swift goes up
on the Mount rush.
Speaker 5 (05:58):
Back of the Chiefs Dynasty, of the chief Dynasty. Those
are the four heads.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Okay, you might put Chris Jones up there, but sure
if you want to.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
She's a value pick. Yes, Pauli.
Speaker 11 (06:13):
We do love when there's like a Thursday night promo
for two teams and the team has a bad quarterback
situation or it's in flux, like there was one last
year because if Kenny Pickett was playing so bad and
I think it was Trubisky was maybe in and it's
like Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs piece like Hayward or TJ.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Watt was out. Even Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yeah, it's pretty tough where you're like, who do we feature?
I don't know, Uh, put up, put up me and
Joe Green.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Yes, And sometimes at a desperation they'll put like two
or three guys together together that aren't together.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
There may be really good, but not any one of them.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
It's like the Giants this year New York Giants, Dexter Lawrence,
like you're gonna have Danny Dimes up there, Yeah, Marv.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Miles Garrett was legit on one of the boards, like
Miles Garrett the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, coming to town.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Face Bill Belichick in the New England Patriots.
Speaker 11 (07:05):
Belichick, you're not playing.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Let's pull question for hour two.
Speaker 8 (07:11):
See, well I got one that I was just kicking
around myself because we had French toast a little earlier.
Best meal of the day breakfast, lunch or dinner. I
don't know if I want to blow up the show
with that, but yeah, we can't.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
We can't go.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
I'm just saying I think breakfast is underappreciated. Yeah, it
is as an all time great. I'm not a breakfast guy. What, No,
not at all.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
How is it possible? It's just but just pile through it, man,
I don't need it.
Speaker 8 (07:38):
That's my problem with Like if you ever go to Italy,
not a breakfast culture, not at all, not at all.
And it's like after like we were there for a coping,
like can we just get some eggs somewhere or something? Now,
eggs and bacon. Nothing turns out on like a real
American breakfast snob needter No, not even, but like I
need some I can't have like a little pastry and
(07:59):
a quick shot of coffee.
Speaker 10 (08:00):
I want to have some like eggs and bacon and
some toast.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, they don't have a Denny's over there.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
They don't have a diner, not a big diner culture
Dante's they call it.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
You know, they don't have it over there where you
can go. I go in there and get me some
steak and eggs.
Speaker 8 (08:14):
I'm just saying it seems like a hole to me.
You guys want to go over there and a half
years we'll open up a diner all of a sudden
gonna be uh you know Italy's guy Fieri.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, oh uh, okay, so our two Wait, let's not
go with the most important meal of the day.
Speaker 8 (08:36):
Okay, not yet, we could have How many years does
Lebron continue to play?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
One, two, three or more? Huh must say two? Yeah,
let's say two.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He got a lot of mileage, man, but he hasn't
had that devastating injury. Like you look back on most
of these superstars. You know, even Jordan what his second
year in the league and he broke his foot. Tobe
with the Achilles. I mean just the mile age that
you have on your body and the way you play.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Lebron, I mean, he's blown everybody away statistically, but I
think there's if you look at games played or minutes played,
that's where it's.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Pretty amazing what he's been able to do.
Speaker 11 (09:20):
Yeah, Pauling, just to give you a comparison, Michael Jordan
played twelve hundred and fifty one games. That's regular season,
in playoffs, everything. Kobe Bryant played one five hundred and
sixty six total games. Lebron currently is at one thousand,
seven hundred and eighty three, and if you you do
two more seasons, you're adding one hundred and fifty plus
(09:40):
the playoff games.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
You know, he's easily at not a lot of playoff games.
Speaker 11 (09:44):
No, but you're looking at uh, you're looking at eighteen
hundred and.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Sixty Yeah, probably if it's two. Yeah, it's a long obviously.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Robin Cincinnati, Hi, ROBO's on your mind.
Speaker 12 (09:58):
Hey, guys, thanks to take McCall well on the Lebron thing.
I'm just wondering what you think about it. You know,
you're talking about how the Lakers can improve, What about
how a Lebron team can improve. I mean, I get
he's got four titles Lebron Centdric Formula's work in the past,
but I've never really gotten feeling that he's even had
rosters that have had a true team feel with passing,
(10:19):
free throwers efficiency, like a prime Warriors or Spurs or
even Thunder.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
We guess think about that, Well, he's always been a passer.
I mean, I don't think you could say Lebron is selfish.
I mean the knock on him early in his career
was he was too unselfish. They get to the line
as a team, like, it's embarrassing the number of times
they get to the line as opposed to anybody else.
(10:44):
It's like there's the Lakers and then there is Joel Embiid.
It feels like that that's the disparity. It's the Lakers
and then Joe ell Embiid and then everybody else in
the NBA. Joe in North Carolina, Hi, Joe, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
A man, I'm a little disappointed in you. Oh you doube.
Speaker 7 (11:08):
No, you got it right. The Ron's always two to
three steps ahead of everybody. Did you miss the point
of why he got out of the playoffs so early.
He needs the rest to get ready to defend the
in season tournament championship.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
They have a banner, Joe, they have the in season banner.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Yes, I forgot about that completely.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
How could you forget? That's a slap on?
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Remember when Barkley was on he said, I'm gonna slap
somebody if they put that banner up, And I'm like,
they're probably gonna put up a banner the d season
Tournament champions. Did we make up t shirts the Lakers
in season Tournament champs? If we didn't, we should have.
Speaker 11 (11:51):
I wonder if you could buy him on a Lakers site.
They wouldn't put those.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Lucas in Texas. Hey, Lucas, what's on your mind?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Hey? Dan?
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Good morning? There you great Hey, with your particular perspective
in the media, I'd love I'd love your kind of
thoughts on this. So with you mentioned it last hour
that this is the first time since like two thousand
and six that we haven't had Lebron, Steph or Katie
in the second round, and so it really feels like
this is a chance for someone to kind of, you know,
(12:19):
step up and grab the mantle of you know, the
next space of the NBA, whatever you want to call it.
It feels like Edwards is that guy. But I mean,
from your like years covering the NBA, what is it
that actually, you know, helps someone take that leap? Is
is it actually winning a title? Is it like a
major highlight, big dunk, big play, lots of lots of stats.
(12:40):
Is it something like winning gold medal at the Olympics
this year? I mean, like, what is it that will
really take someone from you know, because there have been
a million of next guy's any hardaway or.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
You know, you got to win.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
You got to win and you got to be exciting
when you win. I mean Tim Duncan won, but the
knock was that Tim was boring. But he did win.
So you can win and not be elevated to a
status of all time superstar. He's one of the all
time greats. He's just you know, he's one of those
(13:13):
Oh yeah, that's right, Tim Duncan. If Anthony Edwards would
lead Minnesota to a title this year, now you could
stamp him and say that guy can be a Jordan
like player because there's star power, charisma. The movie that
he was in, Hustle, he was a star in that
it just feels like he's right there. It's happening right
(13:38):
in front of us, and it's happening quicker than I
think we thought. He does have highlights. There's you know,
hundreds of guys who have highlights, but it's having those
highlights in a moment where you're winning big games. That's
the most important thing, winning the game. And then if
you do it in a way that you did it,
(13:59):
there's flair. You hit the big shot play, you know,
a big defensive play like those are the things. That's
what it comes down to. Star power doing it when
everybody's watching you do it.
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Yes, Mark, I think Anthony Edwards has a chance to
do it this round. If he thrones the Nuggets, he
gets into that stratosphere of super duperstar, top five player
in the NBA. If he knocks off Jokis and Murray
and the Lakers.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You got to pay it off. You gotta pay it off.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'm not sure if you all Luca went to a
conference finals, who do he beat Clippers? Go ahead, but
you got to pay it off because if you win
and then people would be like, okay, how about this,
and then all of a sudden okayc knocks you out,
then what are we gonna say? Wow, that was you know,
(14:51):
that was exciting, but you lost.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
What about a run just to the finals and you
just beat a Celtic team that's that's better than you.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
That that'll at least put you on stage.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
I mean, you want to at least get there, because
Jason Tatum's gotten there, and what happens it's been a negative.
We go, oh, you can't trust the Celtics even now
if you say Celtics to the best. I mean I
just said, there's no way they're not getting to the
Eastern Conference or the NBA finals, like.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
You have to. You have to. Now.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Porzingis got hurt, but Jason Tatum almost hurt his reputation
by getting to the finals because we watched him then
kind of melt down. We want to see what you
do when everybody else is watching you, and I think
that's what separates you. I Mean, the thing with Jordan
is he didn't he didn't lose. Joe Montana when he
(15:47):
got to the Super Bowl, he didn't lose, he didn't
throw interceptions. Mike never got to a Game seven. I mean,
Magic had one of the greatest close out games of
all time. Walt Fraser against the Lakers in nineteen seventy
went for thirty six and nineteen assists against Jerry West
(16:07):
and the Lakers. All of a sudden, you're Clyde Fraser.
You need those moments where you go, oh my god,
look at this guy.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Yes, Marv, But I think Anthony Edwards, if he has
one of those defining games against the Nuggets and gets
to the finals, if he gets to the finals and
they play hard and he just lose to a Celtis teams,
that's better than all right, maybe super duper star status.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
All those guys that we said, oh, they're the next Jordan,
how many of those guys won titles.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Vince Carter didn't. When he's the star, Vince didn't.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Harold Miner didn't.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Harold Miner didn't, Grant Hill did not, and Forny Hardaway didn't.
Like we were waiting for somebody, they didn't win. If
you win a title now, all of a sudden, you
separated yourself from everybody. If Anthony Edwards wins the title
this year, he has separated himself. Now you're in a real, real,
(17:10):
real small category of all the modern day players.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
Yes, Mark in Minnesota too.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
I think where you win it is also very important.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Well, you're a hero the rest of your life. They'll
build a statue for you if that happens. All right,
let me take a break. We'll come back.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
I got some information here one of my sources talking
about Kirk Cousins and the Falcons that I think you
might find interesting. And Roger Goodell, he kind of floated
it out there with the eighteen game schedule.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Then it's going to be nineteen, it's going to be twenty.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I think we're headed in that direction. I don't think
it's a question of if, but when. We'll take a
break back after this. Thanks for listening to The Dan

and Sports Illustrated.
Speaker 14 (18:19):

It's the Book of Joe podcast. I can't wait for this, Joe.

Speaker 6 (18:44):
Crowning leads it, crown takes it to the basket, reject.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
It has to come out. Something happened, something bad happened.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
Here is not good. I'll never die.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
He's twenty seven, A goo to a halftime? Sure who
go directly to a rocker room. Chris tops porzingis injured
his calf.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I think initially maybe thought it would be the achilles,
but he walked off the floor. You could see the frustration.
Celtics are up three to one on the Heat in
the first round. Next game will be on Wednesday, probably
an MRI. Then figure out exactly what porzingis availability will
be odds to win the NBA Championship anybody want to
(19:31):
take get Marvin, I'll start with you. Odds to win
the title, the Nuggets. The Nuggets are second. It's the
Boston Celtics. The Celtics, yes, seat and you got it,
blue Blue Celtics and then the Nuggets. Anybody want to
take a guess who's third? According to DraftKings odds to
win the title? Todd the New York Knickerbocker, Nope, Paul Pacers, No, Timberwolves,
(20:02):
Leokse Thunder, Oh yeah, then the Timberwolves, then the Knicks,
then the MAVs. Pacers didn't make the board.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
No they did. That's according to DraftKings. All right, let me.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
See so Robert Ory, big shot Bob will join us.
He covers the Lakers for Spectrum Sports. Now he'll join
us a little bit later on. You got games coming
up tonight, seventy six Ers and the Knicks. Magic at
the Calves and the Pacers at the Bucks.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Uh. Chris in Texas, Good morning, Chris, what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Six two two seventy five?
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Soft soft.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Last night the Nuggets were absolutely insane. I love watching
Jokic and Murray. I thought it was insane. Maybe Wonder
and ask the question, who is the who is the
combination that you've seen like a Jokich and Murray, what
they do they have Foco Porter Junior as well. It's
just he's a great asset for them. But those three,
I mean, Jokic with three minutes left is sprinting, doing
a full court sprint down the court, doing the fast break.
(21:01):
Who have you seen like that? Who does it remind
you of?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Well, there's nobody like Joker in the history of the sport.
Like it's hard to create something we've never seen in
the NBA, Like Steph Curry created something we had never
seen before. Magic created something we had never seen before.
Mike created something we had never seen before. Dirk Novitzky
created something we had never seen before.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
It's rare.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
It's hard to do something and where you go, nobody's
ever seen that before, and we haven't seen that. You know,
Jamal Murray coming back from an injury, never been an
All Star. But every year it feels like in the
last couple of years, we go, damn, he's clutch. But
then we don't talk about Jamal Murray the rest of
the year. It's just in the postseason, which is a
(21:49):
tribute to him. It's like Vinnie Johnson with the Pistons.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
It was like.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
He's hitting a big shot after a big shot. You know,
certain players they get that moment, like Robert Dorry, where
you don't talk about him during the regular season.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
You get to the.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Postseason, you're like, man, he's clutch. Yeh sparn kind of
like Jimmy Butler in a sense. Yeah, we don't talk
about him all year, Yeah until May.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
You know when you talk about injuries here with achilles injuries,
and you know porzingis right now, appears it's just a calf.
And sometimes what happens if you've ever suffered an injury,
a lot of times you don't go, oh my god,
that's so painful. It's guys who have an achilles injury
they think they got kicked in the back of their ankle,
(22:33):
back of their leg, Like the god, what was that?
Because your achille just rolls up your leg. We've seen
that happen to Durant, certainly Rodgers when Rogers Aaron Rodgers
got hurt, he just sat there, but he knew that
it was serious.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Kobe when he sat.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Down, he was on the floor and he was like, oh,
I'm shooting these free throws. But he knew in the moment,
like there's certain injuries that you go that's trouble, but
not all the injuries hurt when you when you suffer them,
you know what it is like your body, you're well
aware it's like, wow, that hurts, or that's that's something serious.
(23:12):
But with Porzingis, it's like, and you know he's had
injuries throughout his career, but you know, all of a sudden,
now do you shut him down? Can you you know
you're going to get through to the next round here,
You're eventually going to need him, Yeah, Pauling.
Speaker 11 (23:26):
I went back and looked at Kevin Durant's achilles tear.
He's doing a light crossover on a player on a
very generic play. He barely even makes a hard move
and he just starts going. He looks back like like
someone threw something at him. He goes like this, and
then he goes down. He's like and then he has
this look at his face like, oh, I know what's
going on, and everyone else is like, what's happening here
because you couldn't see anything.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Well, the achilles is unlike anything that you know anybody's
going to suffer men.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
I've said this before.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I was playing in a pickup game in Denver and
a guy was on the floor with us and you
could hear both achilles pop and that was the sound
and he went down like he was shot.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
And I was like, you know what happened.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I'd never been around somebody who had their achilles go
and both of his went at the same time, and
I'm like, whoa, It's weird how that can happen.
Speaker 8 (24:19):
So yeah, yeah, right, They're like they're not linked. No,
it's not like one makes the other one weaker or stronger.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
And it wasn't like he was iverson on the floor
breaking people's ankles. Here.
Speaker 8 (24:29):
It's like, oh my god, do you see what happened
to Moe Boom Boom? That happened to my gym teacher
when I was in high school. A dude who should
not have been playing basketball as aggressively as he was
paid the price for that because he snapped both of
his at the same time, and he I've never seen
anyone in that much pain in my entire life.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yeah, certain injuries, certain time.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
A lot of times you'll find older guys when they're
out there playing tennis or pickleball or maybe basketball softball.
You're going to take the extra base there.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Oh, I'm gonna leg it out now. No, no, no, no, Jim, Jim, Jim.
Just don't. Don't, don't, don't, don't.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Some football news Roger Goodell pumped up the eighteen game
schedule and nobody is surprised. And you know this is
a plan. It's not like somebody's gonna add you know,
McAfee's not gonna ask the commissioner where he goes. You know,
I hadn't even thought of an eighteen game schedule. Hmmm,
I don't know what do you think? Like? These are
all these been discussed for a while, and of course
(25:30):
they're gonna have eighteen games, and then there's gonna be
a push for nineteen, and there will be a push
for twenty. It's just gonna happen. And the number of
games are going to be played outside the United States. Well,
now you feel like you have a couple of games
to play with with each team, or at least one.
And now you're saying to these teams, pick a country
that that can be your fan base. You're the official
(25:53):
football team of Brazil. You're the official team of London,
like Jacksonville's laid claim too, or Mexico City. This is
what the NFL. They want to globalize this. Well, you're
not going to have a team in another country, at
least this is what i'm told. So this is the
best way of doing that. That that's your team. Now
(26:15):
we sell more merchandise. Now all of a sudden, we
globalize this because that's what the NBA did. The NFL
wants to do this. I mean they tried the World
Football League, and while it was enjoyable to be able
to see some of these cities, it just didn't catch on.
But now you have a chance to say the Eagles
and the Packers are going to play here, and the
(26:38):
Eagles want to lay claim to this city.
Speaker 11 (26:41):
Yeah, Poem Roger Goodell is very smart in how he
presents it. A McAfee's show, he didn't say I'm in
favor of an eighteen game schedule. He actually said, quote,
I think we're good at seventeen now, but we were
looking at everything. I like the fans. I'm not a
big fan of the preseason, and I'd be fine if
people wanted to replace a preseason game with the eighteen game.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
It's almost like he's.
Speaker 11 (26:58):
Taking it off him and saying, I won't want the
crowd wants.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I want, saying this for years that get rid of
the posts, preseason, cut it down to two games, and
then to know the owners, they want to have four,
they want to have five.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
You know they wanted revenue. I get it, Well, do I.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Want preseason revenue or do I want regular season revenue?
I'll take regular season revenue. And they're going to go
to eighteen games and they're going to back up the
Super Bowl. We talked about that as well. You can
do it and you're gonna have a three day weekend.
All of this stuff that this has already been decided.
(27:37):
It's just when do you make it public that you're
going to do this? Hey, then you then you got
to talk to the NFLPA, and then they they're going
to say, hey, what do you want?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
What do you want? How about this?
Speaker 2 (27:50):
How about instead of a fifty three man roster, how
about you have a fifty seven man roster. How About
we have an extra quarterback. How About we have an
extra offensive player, an extra defensive player, an ext special
teams player.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Or maybe just a wild card position there this way,
you create four more jobs, you give a little bit
more depth because you're going to have injuries. We had
over sixty quarterbacks start last year. Throw a pass, so
then you get more paychecks, more people getting paychecks, and
it might be a win win situation. But this is
(28:26):
going to happen. It's not a question of if. But
when I mentioned this about having some information a source
telling me about Kirk Cousins, Now this is somebody who
loved Michael Pennix. He was the person who told me, Hey,
Pennis is going up, and the same guy who said
Mahomes was going up years ago, same guy who told
(28:47):
me Baker Mayfield was going number one overall. So he's
got a track record of knowing what he's talking about.
He said, Michael Pennix will get first team reps all
spring through OTA's mini cams. His arm talent will be
on display. That will be hard to ignore for the
Falcon players who won't be comfortable with Kirk Cousins, so
(29:15):
he called him Casey won't be comfortable. It won't be
comfortable for Kirk Cousins. So imagine that, and nobody's brought
that up. They're going to see Michael Pennix throughout the
summer because Kirk is still mending from achilles surgery and
they're going to see this and then they're going to go, oh,
my god, and that guy's not going to play for
a couple of years. How awkward is that going to be?
(29:40):
So Pennix will be there taking first team reps. They're
going to see the talent that he has, the arm
strength that he has, and then Kirk has to come
back and then he'll be your starting quarterback. Also, my
source said, you know, it's weird for a team that's
going to get in trouble for tampering with Kirk Cousins.
They wanted Kirk Cousins so bad they might get dinged
(30:02):
for tampering, and then they fell in love with Michael Pennix. So,
as my source said, how does that happen? You want
Kirk Cousins so badly, you're probably gonna lose a first
round draft pick because you tampered with Kirk Cousins, and
then you decided that you want to go all in
on Michael Pennix for the future. And then my source said,
(30:25):
this will be two years Kirk Cousins best case scenario
in his opinion will be two years and that'll be it.
Now they'll have to eat some of that. Or maybe
he's a backup quarterback, but he thinks Michael Pennix will
be the starting quarterback in the year three in the NFL.
So just some of the things that maybe you didn't
think about, nobody else did. But hey, we love this
(30:47):
guy so much. We're gonna tamper, we're gonna get we're
gonna lose a draft pick or two.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Oh man, we really love Michael Pennox junior.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
And then the fact that he's gonna take all those
first team reps and everybody's gonna see this, and it's
it's like when Justin Herbert when we saw him on
hard Knocks, and when veterans start to turn around and
watch a rookie and they're watching Justin Herbert and you
could see where they're going. Damn right, Kirk Cousin's going
(31:14):
to be in a cart and Michael Pennock's going to
be firing the ball all over the field and everybody's
gonna be like, all right, Michael, man, you're killing love you, Michael, yeah, man.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
And then Kirk's over there and going, hey, hey, good job.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
Mike, Yes, smart, you know what I changed my answer.
I do want the Falcons to be on hard knocks.
Can you imagine the wide receiver miked up Drake London
me and going, oh my god, if Pennix was in this.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Game right now?
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Yeah, yes, yes, Seaton.
Speaker 8 (31:43):
The Falcons are sounding like like they just fall in
love with who's in front of them, like if you
like my son, and I will. After the NFL Draft,
we always go back and see who the Patriots got,
and we watch highlight videos of who they got, and
it's like, what we got, you know, on Baker, this
dude's gonna be like the best wide receiver in the league,
or what the hell do we need Drake May for?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
When we got Joe Milton.
Speaker 8 (32:06):
Joe Milton's waving, you know, like you just fall in
love with whoever you're seeing and then you never actually
get to see them play because it was like a
sixth round tight end that's never gonna get off the
practice squad.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
There there is no way Michael Pennox has to wait
four years to play. It just doesn't like do you
want to be great now or try to be great now?
Or do you sort of want to be good now
and make sure that you're sort of good down the road,
because it feels like the Falcons were trying to play
both ends. Hey, we can win this division. Okay, the
(32:39):
guy who you drafted eighth overall doesn't help you unless
Kirk Cousins gets injured and down the road when Kirk's gone, Okay,
you got your quarterback. But are you gonna be kind
of good? They're they're they're kind of good this year.
I think you you aspire to be great in the division.
(33:01):
You could win, host a first round playoff game. Who knows,
ask the Packers and go on the road beat the Cowboys.
Never never, you know, go into a season where you go,
you know, our goal is to kind of win the division.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Now it's hey, we're going to win the division.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
We're going to host a playoff game, and I could
see us going to the NFC title game. You have
to have aspirations, I would think. But with the Falcons,
feels like they're trying to do both. We're kind of good,
and we hope we're kind of good in a couple
of years. Take a break. More phone calls coming up
back after this. Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show. Podcast.

Speaker 14 (33:57):
Say across the Top lot against Marshalls on ball pressure
as nineteen points in Game four gets the tort pick started,
I McCollum on the switch to We'll face on with
the step, laz and up and lays at home as
he weaved inside, snaking his way for the deuce.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Give him twenty one.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Tonight Shay gilgis Alexander thunderbeat the Pelicans sweep their first
round series, and they did it with defense. Pelicans didn't
score more than ninety two points in those four games.
OKSEE is a team that you really have to watch.
You can't watch the highlights and figure out who they are.
(34:31):
Good team, deep team, young team. And I was wondering,
you know, when it comes to that experience or lack
thereof OKC or Minnesota, you know the team that has
the best chance to knock off Denver.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
I would say Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
They feel and you've got a couple of experienced players
there not necessarily experience going deep into the playoffs, but
with Karl Anthony Towns Rudy Gobert have a little bit
more experience there. Uh but okay, see fun to watch
as long as Shay gilgis and uh and chet don't sing.
(35:09):
I'm fine with that. You know that that commercial and
they play it so often. Sometimes when a commercial is bad,
it's okay, you can tolerate it. But when it gets
played a lot and you're like, oh no, and then
all of a sudden, I'm mad at at and T
for no other reason, Then how'd you allow this to happen?
Chet holmgrun in SGA doing their singing? Uh, you know,
(35:32):
A little flat?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
A little flat? Do we have it? Marvin?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
No, why don't you sing it? Don't you what a
pro want?
Speaker 5 (35:44):
Okay?
Speaker 11 (35:45):
Is it bad on purpose or is it bad?
Speaker 2 (35:48):
I think they salvaged it with the last line by
SGA where he says it's a little flat. I think
they probably thought most people think they can sing. I
think most people feel like, you know, hey, listen to this.
Speaker 11 (36:01):
Why does the commercial annoy people so much because it's
universally disliked?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Well, I don't think they know who these guys are
to begin with.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
No.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I mean it's true.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
It's like if Gronk was singing that, we'd be like,
all right, Gronk is bad, But it would be more
entertaining because we would know, oh, that's Gronk and he's
being a goofball like Chad Holmgren looks like Abe Lincoln,
you know Rangier?
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Yes, yes, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (36:34):
Should they have done it with their jerseys on?
Speaker 9 (36:36):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (36:38):
That would have helped. It would have been weird though,
going out to the team boss. But if you had
your warm ups on, maybe and we took a shot
from behind and got your names.
Speaker 8 (36:49):
And people would be like, why didn't they get real
basketball players to do it instead of these actors get
Lebron James and Steph Curry?
Speaker 1 (36:55):
Do you have some of it? Marvin?
Speaker 9 (36:58):
And I'm baker fun knowing exactly what ifro wants, what
a prone needs.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Whatever makes me happy, says me, free good, a little
bit slap. We'll get better at providers.
Speaker 11 (37:15):
Who I'm bothered by it? But why does it bother people?
Because it's average below? Ever, singing has nothing to do
with cell phones?
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Well, first of all, I don't even know what they're singing.
I don't know either. So they're singing a song I
don't even know what it is and what time I've heard.
Speaker 8 (37:30):
That song before.
Speaker 5 (37:31):
I have to check out who singing.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
I was like, what a girl wants, what a girl needs?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Ye, so I don't even know what they're singing. And
at first I was like, that's Chad Holmgren. I mean,
I know they're trying to get you know, Shay gilgis
some national publicity. Is that Christina Aguileraton you that would
not be in your wheelhouse other than she's good looking.
Speaker 5 (37:52):
I do see Christina.
Speaker 6 (37:53):
That may be a remake though I thought that was
an older song, but I see Christina Aguilera for that.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Well, it is a remake from what they were doing
when they were singing it. But no, it's not, I
don't know, not clever.
Speaker 11 (38:05):
Like your first national ad, and it drives people crazy
people it's on all the time. I've seen it four times.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
That's part of the problem though, too, where if you
have the novelty of it and then you're like, oh, okay,
they should have font to put their names. Chad Holmegroun
and Shay Gilgus. Alexander Staut of the Day Brought to

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Okay, but how many commercials are bad? Like Gronk?
Speaker 9 (38:37):
Exactly what makes me heavy?
Speaker 7 (38:44):
Says me?
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Free?
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Can it border on? Can you border on catchy? Like
Gron's commercials are silly, but it's Gronk, so we sort
of accept that they're not good. But it's like and
he's still trying to get insurance and bothted.
Speaker 11 (39:03):
The tennis one, I thought I meant your serf, Oh.
Speaker 1 (39:07):
I thought you that.
Speaker 6 (39:08):
I thirve Yes, there's a fine line between cringey and catchy.
And with that one, because it's played so much, even
though it's meant to be bad, with that throwaway line
at the end, you know that, you know we need
to work on it.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Okay, but.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Patrick Mahomes commercials, how about the subway commercials? Are those
like I'm only entertained by hearing Barkley try to cram
as many words as possible into like he's got thirty
seconds of copy and he's got to get it into
eighteen seconds and he's just reading as fast as he can.
Those are kind of coin What about the State Farm?
Speaker 11 (39:46):
Lightly fun?
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Okay? Yeah, Paul, I.
Speaker 11 (39:49):
Love the subway commercial that they signed up Tom Brady.
Everyone knows that he's never eaten subway, would never eat
so but I'll take the money to do the commercial.
I almost respect it, weirdly like, but they use Tom
Brady like everyone knows he doesn't need it, so let's
put him in the ad.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
But is it? Is there a great commercial involving athletes?
Speaker 12 (40:08):
Now?
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah? Mark?
Speaker 5 (40:09):
What about Nationwide is on your side and not Peyton Manning?
Speaker 4 (40:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:16):
I mean they yeah, they had some legs, had some legs.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
I can't think of that's it.
Speaker 5 (40:25):
And I'm thinking, you.
Speaker 9 (40:30):
Promly exactly what whatever?
Speaker 1 (40:44):
Say it is?
Speaker 8 (40:44):
It's a flat it's flat singing flat. Yeah, it's a
little flat, but we'll we'll get it.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
That's the joke. Do you think they were actually trying
to sing? Well?
Speaker 10 (40:52):
No, well, I don't think that they could sing better
than that.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Okay, so they were trying.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Yeah, I think that they're I don't think they went
in it and go, yeah, you know, these guys are
PAVROTI but I want you guys to dumb it down
a little bit, you know, I don't want you to
sing well, yes, Mark.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
My favorite part is they dap each other up afterwards
like you know, we killed it.
Speaker 10 (41:15):
Yeah check kinda is like what he's got his hand on?
Speaker 9 (41:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (41:18):
Killing this right now? Yeah? Okay?
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Is there a follow up this? Do they do one postseason?
We're Christina Aguilera, Well, they can't do that to her.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
That seems to mean spirited.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
Big shot Bob Robert ori Orio what Joan is coming up?

show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle
at DP show. The Lakers they got one win in
Denver out of Denver, that series not in Denver, but
(00:48):
they got closed out last night and Lebron James was
asked about is this the last game as a Laker tonight?
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Was there any thought at all that you know this could.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Have been your last with the Lakers.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
I'm not going to answer that.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Appreciate it, okay, So son to no, not exactly a
yes either. And you got a lot of off season
here to talk about what you want to do, what
you can do the draft, what you do in the draft,
the role that his son plays. But I don't see
Lebron playing someplace else. Yes, don were surprised.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
Lebron wasn't a little more thoroughly or pretended to be
surly in that situation, like and we just lost, and
when we've got knocked down in the first round by
the same game as less than you're asking me in
my future or that not really his personality.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I think at his age, you're going to ask that question. Yeah,
I mean when we say, was that a fair question? Okay,
you don't have to answer, or you can answer it
in a certain way, but I think asking the question
that that's something that's not off the board.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Now, how you asked that?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Have you given any thought to you know, have you
played your last game as a lake I don't think
that's out of the question because we don't know. He
didn't answer it. He didn't say no, I'm playing. So
it becomes a fair question because of his answer because
he doesn't know.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
And he answered with a smile and he said I
appreciate it him. He was the exact opposite of being
annoyed by it.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
But it was Jamal Murray who was the star last
night down the stretch he had thirty two. And here
is his head coach, Michael Malone on Jamal Murray.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
The kid's a warrior.
Speaker 7 (02:27):
Man.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I can't say enough good things about Jamal Murray.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
The bigger the moment, the kid just continues to shine.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
He does. He wants the ball. They know that they're
in good hands if he has the ball. So two
of the four games Jamal Murray won. Those at the
Buzzer stat of the Day brought to you by panadi America,
the official trading cards of this program. Good morning, if
you're watching on Peacock, thank you for allowing us into
your homes and our radio affiliates around the country, numbering
(02:59):
over four hundred cities. Paul, question for hour two is
gonna be what seat O'Connor. We have big Shot Bob
Orie a little bit later on this morning.
Speaker 8 (03:08):
Yeah, big shot Bob he rules. Uh what a career
better signing yesterday? Travis kelcey or Jason kelce You want
to take a guess?
Speaker 9 (03:18):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (03:18):
Yeah, sixty one percent have Jason kelce being a huge winner.
Speaker 10 (03:22):
No offense, Travis, no offense.
Speaker 8 (03:24):
However, Yeah, in terms of making a bigger splash, ESPN
got a good deal.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Yeah they did, yeh.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Because if you sign Jason, then you wonder does that
lead to Travis as well? So it might be a
signing that leads to another signing there. But Jason Kelcey
will be there for Monday Night Countdown. Travis says he's
going to play at least two more years in Kansas City.
They announced it on the same day.
Speaker 11 (03:48):
Yes, Paul, you asked last hour, has a team ever
had the non quarterback as the most famous person or maybe.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Co most famous people? But this is a tight end.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Tight end.
Speaker 11 (03:58):
Gronk wasn't more famous than Britain, not at all. But
there's they were both household names simultaneously. That's like one
of the few they think of the Cowboy When the
Cowboys had Michael Irvin, Emmett Smith and Troy Aikman Emmett
that they were like equal fame all through equal. They're
all great at what they did. They were famous for
(04:20):
different reasons, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Well, Emmett didn't have a personality. He was just a spectacular,
durable player.
Speaker 11 (04:26):
But he's his rushing yardage.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
But you didn't go, oh, the Cowboys, Emmit I think
you think the Cowboys in the Star is the star.
But but or Jimmy Johnson or Jerry Jones. I mean,
there are very few NFL teams Lawrence Taylor. You could
have said that maybe he was the face of the
franchise with the Giants over Phil Simms or or Bill Parcells,
(04:51):
but not many times. And you have a tight end
who is the face of the franchise. You have one
of the two greatest quarterbacks of all time, but the
tight end feels like he's the face of the franchise.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yes, Ton.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
The only reason I have.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
A problem with that is if you were to sell
like a do a promotion and say so and so
and the team are coming to town, it would be
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, no matter how popular train.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Would you say, Travis Kelton, the Chiefs are coming.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Maybe, Well, when you get Travis, you get Taylor, so
he maybe.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Well that the speculation would be there, maybe yeah, yes, Martin.
Speaker 5 (05:30):
But Mahomes is never not mentioned when they talk about
the Chiefs. True, So I think that's Cole You know
Mount Rushmore faces.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Okay, well he's in the conversation. Let's put it that way.
Travis Kelcey's in the conversation of being the face of
that franchise.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Yes, mart So Mount Rushmore, Chiefs, Mahomes, Kelsey, Taylor, Andy Reid.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
You're talking about modern day, So Taylor Swift goes up
on the Mount rush.
Speaker 5 (05:58):
Back of the Chiefs Dynasty, of the chief Dynasty. Those
are the four heads.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Okay, you might put Chris Jones up there, but sure
if you want to.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
She's a value pick. Yes, Pauli.
Speaker 11 (06:13):
We do love when there's like a Thursday night promo
for two teams and the team has a bad quarterback
situation or it's in flux, like there was one last
year because if Kenny Pickett was playing so bad and
I think it was Trubisky was maybe in and it's
like Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs piece like Hayward or TJ.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Watt was out. Even Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yeah, it's pretty tough where you're like, who do we feature?
I don't know, Uh, put up, put up me and
Joe Green.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Yes, And sometimes at a desperation they'll put like two
or three guys together together that aren't together.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
There may be really good, but not any one of them.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
It's like the Giants this year New York Giants, Dexter Lawrence,
like you're gonna have Danny Dimes up there, Yeah, Marv.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
Miles Garrett was legit on one of the boards, like
Miles Garrett the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, coming to town.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Face Bill Belichick in the New England Patriots.
Speaker 11 (07:05):
Belichick, you're not playing.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Let's pull question for hour two.
Speaker 8 (07:11):
See, well I got one that I was just kicking
around myself because we had French toast a little earlier.
Best meal of the day breakfast, lunch or dinner. I
don't know if I want to blow up the show
with that, but yeah, we can't.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
We can't go.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
I'm just saying I think breakfast is underappreciated. Yeah, it
is as an all time great. I'm not a breakfast guy. What, No,
not at all.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
How is it possible? It's just but just pile through it, man,
I don't need it.
Speaker 8 (07:38):
That's my problem with Like if you ever go to Italy,
not a breakfast culture, not at all, not at all.
And it's like after like we were there for a coping,
like can we just get some eggs somewhere or something? Now,
eggs and bacon. Nothing turns out on like a real
American breakfast snob needter No, not even, but like I
need some I can't have like a little pastry and
(07:59):
a quick shot of coffee.
Speaker 10 (08:00):
I want to have some like eggs and bacon and
some toast.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, they don't have a Denny's over there.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
They don't have a diner, not a big diner culture
Dante's they call it.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
You know, they don't have it over there where you
can go. I go in there and get me some
steak and eggs.
Speaker 8 (08:14):
I'm just saying it seems like a hole to me.
You guys want to go over there and a half
years we'll open up a diner all of a sudden
gonna be uh you know Italy's guy Fieri.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, oh uh, okay, so our two Wait, let's not
go with the most important meal of the day.
Speaker 8 (08:36):
Okay, not yet, we could have How many years does
Lebron continue to play?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
One, two, three or more? Huh must say two? Yeah,
let's say two.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He got a lot of mileage, man, but he hasn't
had that devastating injury. Like you look back on most
of these superstars. You know, even Jordan what his second
year in the league and he broke his foot. Tobe
with the Achilles. I mean just the mile age that
you have on your body and the way you play.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Lebron, I mean, he's blown everybody away statistically, but I
think there's if you look at games played or minutes played,
that's where it's.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Pretty amazing what he's been able to do.
Speaker 11 (09:20):
Yeah, Pauling, just to give you a comparison, Michael Jordan
played twelve hundred and fifty one games. That's regular season,
in playoffs, everything. Kobe Bryant played one five hundred and
sixty six total games. Lebron currently is at one thousand,
seven hundred and eighty three, and if you you do
two more seasons, you're adding one hundred and fifty plus
(09:40):
the playoff games.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
You know, he's easily at not a lot of playoff games.
Speaker 11 (09:44):
No, but you're looking at uh, you're looking at eighteen
hundred and.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Sixty Yeah, probably if it's two. Yeah, it's a long obviously.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Robin Cincinnati, Hi, ROBO's on your mind.
Speaker 12 (09:58):
Hey, guys, thanks to take McCall well on the Lebron thing.
I'm just wondering what you think about it. You know,
you're talking about how the Lakers can improve, What about
how a Lebron team can improve. I mean, I get
he's got four titles Lebron Centdric Formula's work in the past,
but I've never really gotten feeling that he's even had
rosters that have had a true team feel with passing,
(10:19):
free throwers efficiency, like a prime Warriors or Spurs or
even Thunder.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
We guess think about that, Well, he's always been a passer.
I mean, I don't think you could say Lebron is selfish.
I mean the knock on him early in his career
was he was too unselfish. They get to the line
as a team, like, it's embarrassing the number of times
they get to the line as opposed to anybody else.
(10:44):
It's like there's the Lakers and then there is Joel Embiid.
It feels like that that's the disparity. It's the Lakers
and then Joe ell Embiid and then everybody else in
the NBA. Joe in North Carolina, Hi, Joe, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
A man, I'm a little disappointed in you. Oh you doube.
Speaker 7 (11:08):
No, you got it right. The Ron's always two to
three steps ahead of everybody. Did you miss the point
of why he got out of the playoffs so early.
He needs the rest to get ready to defend the
in season tournament championship.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
They have a banner, Joe, they have the in season banner.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Yes, I forgot about that completely.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
How could you forget? That's a slap on?
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Remember when Barkley was on he said, I'm gonna slap
somebody if they put that banner up, And I'm like,
they're probably gonna put up a banner the d season
Tournament champions. Did we make up t shirts the Lakers
in season Tournament champs? If we didn't, we should have.
Speaker 11 (11:51):
I wonder if you could buy him on a Lakers site.
They wouldn't put those.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Lucas in Texas. Hey, Lucas, what's on your mind?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Hey? Dan?
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Good morning? There you great Hey, with your particular perspective
in the media, I'd love I'd love your kind of
thoughts on this. So with you mentioned it last hour
that this is the first time since like two thousand
and six that we haven't had Lebron, Steph or Katie
in the second round, and so it really feels like
this is a chance for someone to kind of, you know,
(12:19):
step up and grab the mantle of you know, the
next space of the NBA, whatever you want to call it.
It feels like Edwards is that guy. But I mean,
from your like years covering the NBA, what is it
that actually, you know, helps someone take that leap? Is
is it actually winning a title? Is it like a
major highlight, big dunk, big play, lots of lots of stats.
(12:40):
Is it something like winning gold medal at the Olympics
this year? I mean, like, what is it that will
really take someone from you know, because there have been
a million of next guy's any hardaway or.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
You know, you got to win.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
You got to win and you got to be exciting
when you win. I mean Tim Duncan won, but the
knock was that Tim was boring. But he did win.
So you can win and not be elevated to a
status of all time superstar. He's one of the all
time greats. He's just you know, he's one of those
(13:13):
Oh yeah, that's right, Tim Duncan. If Anthony Edwards would
lead Minnesota to a title this year, now you could
stamp him and say that guy can be a Jordan
like player because there's star power, charisma. The movie that
he was in, Hustle, he was a star in that
it just feels like he's right there. It's happening right
(13:38):
in front of us, and it's happening quicker than I
think we thought. He does have highlights. There's you know,
hundreds of guys who have highlights, but it's having those
highlights in a moment where you're winning big games. That's
the most important thing, winning the game. And then if
you do it in a way that you did it,
(13:59):
there's flair. You hit the big shot play, you know,
a big defensive play like those are the things. That's
what it comes down to. Star power doing it when
everybody's watching you do it.
Speaker 5 (14:12):
Yes, Mark, I think Anthony Edwards has a chance to
do it this round. If he thrones the Nuggets, he
gets into that stratosphere of super duperstar, top five player
in the NBA. If he knocks off Jokis and Murray
and the Lakers.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
You got to pay it off. You gotta pay it off.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'm not sure if you all Luca went to a
conference finals, who do he beat Clippers? Go ahead, but
you got to pay it off because if you win
and then people would be like, okay, how about this,
and then all of a sudden okayc knocks you out,
then what are we gonna say? Wow, that was you know,
(14:51):
that was exciting, but you lost.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
What about a run just to the finals and you
just beat a Celtic team that's that's better than you.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
That that'll at least put you on stage.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
I mean, you want to at least get there, because
Jason Tatum's gotten there, and what happens it's been a negative.
We go, oh, you can't trust the Celtics even now
if you say Celtics to the best. I mean I
just said, there's no way they're not getting to the
Eastern Conference or the NBA finals, like.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
You have to. You have to. Now.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Porzingis got hurt, but Jason Tatum almost hurt his reputation
by getting to the finals because we watched him then
kind of melt down. We want to see what you
do when everybody else is watching you, and I think
that's what separates you. I Mean, the thing with Jordan
is he didn't he didn't lose. Joe Montana when he
(15:47):
got to the Super Bowl, he didn't lose, he didn't
throw interceptions. Mike never got to a Game seven. I mean,
Magic had one of the greatest close out games of
all time. Walt Fraser against the Lakers in nineteen seventy
went for thirty six and nineteen assists against Jerry West
(16:07):
and the Lakers. All of a sudden, you're Clyde Fraser.
You need those moments where you go, oh my god,
look at this guy.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Yes, Marv, But I think Anthony Edwards, if he has
one of those defining games against the Nuggets and gets
to the finals, if he gets to the finals and
they play hard and he just lose to a Celtis teams,
that's better than all right, maybe super duper star status.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
All those guys that we said, oh, they're the next Jordan,
how many of those guys won titles.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Vince Carter didn't. When he's the star, Vince didn't.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Harold Miner didn't.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Harold Miner didn't, Grant Hill did not, and Forny Hardaway didn't.
Like we were waiting for somebody, they didn't win. If
you win a title now, all of a sudden, you
separated yourself from everybody. If Anthony Edwards wins the title
this year, he has separated himself. Now you're in a real, real,
(17:10):
real small category of all the modern day players.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
Yes, Mark in Minnesota too.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:18):
I think where you win it is also very important.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Well, you're a hero the rest of your life. They'll
build a statue for you if that happens. All right,
let me take a break. We'll come back.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
I got some information here one of my sources talking
about Kirk Cousins and the Falcons that I think you
might find interesting. And Roger Goodell, he kind of floated
it out there with the eighteen game schedule.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Then it's going to be nineteen, it's going to be twenty.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
I think we're headed in that direction. I don't think
it's a question of if, but when. We'll take a
break back after this. Thanks for listening to The Dan

and Sports Illustrated.
Speaker 14 (18:19):
And I'm Joe Madden, and we're going to be around

Speaker 1 (18:26):
It's the Book of Joe podcast. I can't wait for this, Joe.
Speaker 13 (18:29):
We're going to dive into what goes on in the

Speaker 6 (18:44):
Crowning leads it, crown takes it to the basket, reject.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
It has to come out. Something happened, something bad happened.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
Here is not good. I'll never die.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
He's twenty seven, A goo to a halftime? Sure who
go directly to a rocker room. Chris tops porzingis injured
his calf.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
I think initially maybe thought it would be the achilles,
but he walked off the floor. You could see the frustration.
Celtics are up three to one on the Heat in
the first round. Next game will be on Wednesday, probably
an MRI. Then figure out exactly what porzingis availability will
be odds to win the NBA Championship anybody want to
(19:31):
take get Marvin, I'll start with you. Odds to win
the title, the Nuggets. The Nuggets are second. It's the
Boston Celtics. The Celtics, yes, seat and you got it,
blue Blue Celtics and then the Nuggets. Anybody want to
take a guess who's third? According to DraftKings odds to
win the title? Todd the New York Knickerbocker, Nope, Paul Pacers, No, Timberwolves,
(20:02):
Leokse Thunder, Oh yeah, then the Timberwolves, then the Knicks,
then the MAVs. Pacers didn't make the board.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
No they did. That's according to DraftKings. All right, let me.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
See so Robert Ory, big shot Bob will join us.
He covers the Lakers for Spectrum Sports. Now he'll join
us a little bit later on. You got games coming
up tonight, seventy six Ers and the Knicks. Magic at
the Calves and the Pacers at the Bucks.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Uh. Chris in Texas, Good morning, Chris, what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Six two two seventy five?
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Soft soft.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Last night the Nuggets were absolutely insane. I love watching
Jokic and Murray. I thought it was insane. Maybe Wonder
and ask the question, who is the who is the
combination that you've seen like a Jokich and Murray, what
they do they have Foco Porter Junior as well. It's
just he's a great asset for them. But those three,
I mean, Jokic with three minutes left is sprinting, doing
a full court sprint down the court, doing the fast break.
(21:01):
Who have you seen like that? Who does it remind
you of?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Well, there's nobody like Joker in the history of the sport.
Like it's hard to create something we've never seen in
the NBA, Like Steph Curry created something we had never
seen before. Magic created something we had never seen before.
Mike created something we had never seen before. Dirk Novitzky
created something we had never seen before.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
It's rare.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
It's hard to do something and where you go, nobody's
ever seen that before, and we haven't seen that. You know,
Jamal Murray coming back from an injury, never been an
All Star. But every year it feels like in the
last couple of years, we go, damn, he's clutch. But
then we don't talk about Jamal Murray the rest of
the year. It's just in the postseason, which is a
(21:49):
tribute to him. It's like Vinnie Johnson with the Pistons.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
It was like.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
He's hitting a big shot after a big shot. You know,
certain players they get that moment, like Robert Dorry, where
you don't talk about him during the regular season.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
You get to the.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Postseason, you're like, man, he's clutch. Yeh sparn kind of
like Jimmy Butler in a sense. Yeah, we don't talk
about him all year, Yeah until May.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
You know when you talk about injuries here with achilles injuries,
and you know porzingis right now, appears it's just a calf.
And sometimes what happens if you've ever suffered an injury,
a lot of times you don't go, oh my god,
that's so painful. It's guys who have an achilles injury
they think they got kicked in the back of their ankle,
(22:33):
back of their leg, Like the god, what was that?
Because your achille just rolls up your leg. We've seen
that happen to Durant, certainly Rodgers when Rogers Aaron Rodgers
got hurt, he just sat there, but he knew that
it was serious.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Kobe when he sat.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Down, he was on the floor and he was like, oh,
I'm shooting these free throws. But he knew in the moment,
like there's certain injuries that you go that's trouble, but
not all the injuries hurt when you when you suffer them,
you know what it is like your body, you're well
aware it's like, wow, that hurts, or that's that's something serious.
(23:12):
But with Porzingis, it's like, and you know he's had
injuries throughout his career, but you know, all of a sudden,
now do you shut him down? Can you you know
you're going to get through to the next round here,
You're eventually going to need him, Yeah, Pauling.
Speaker 11 (23:26):
I went back and looked at Kevin Durant's achilles tear.
He's doing a light crossover on a player on a
very generic play. He barely even makes a hard move
and he just starts going. He looks back like like
someone threw something at him. He goes like this, and
then he goes down. He's like and then he has
this look at his face like, oh, I know what's
going on, and everyone else is like, what's happening here
because you couldn't see anything.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Well, the achilles is unlike anything that you know anybody's
going to suffer men.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
I've said this before.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I was playing in a pickup game in Denver and
a guy was on the floor with us and you
could hear both achilles pop and that was the sound
and he went down like he was shot.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
And I was like, you know what happened.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I'd never been around somebody who had their achilles go
and both of his went at the same time, and
I'm like, whoa, It's weird how that can happen.
Speaker 8 (24:19):
So yeah, yeah, right, They're like they're not linked. No,
it's not like one makes the other one weaker or stronger.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
And it wasn't like he was iverson on the floor
breaking people's ankles. Here.
Speaker 8 (24:29):
It's like, oh my god, do you see what happened
to Moe Boom Boom? That happened to my gym teacher
when I was in high school. A dude who should
not have been playing basketball as aggressively as he was
paid the price for that because he snapped both of
his at the same time, and he I've never seen
anyone in that much pain in my entire life.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yeah, certain injuries, certain time.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
A lot of times you'll find older guys when they're
out there playing tennis or pickleball or maybe basketball softball.
You're going to take the extra base there.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Oh, I'm gonna leg it out now. No, no, no, no, Jim, Jim, Jim.
Just don't. Don't, don't, don't, don't.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Some football news Roger Goodell pumped up the eighteen game
schedule and nobody is surprised. And you know this is
a plan. It's not like somebody's gonna add you know,
McAfee's not gonna ask the commissioner where he goes. You know,
I hadn't even thought of an eighteen game schedule. Hmmm,
I don't know what do you think? Like? These are
all these been discussed for a while, and of course
(25:30):
they're gonna have eighteen games, and then there's gonna be
a push for nineteen, and there will be a push
for twenty. It's just gonna happen. And the number of
games are going to be played outside the United States. Well,
now you feel like you have a couple of games
to play with with each team, or at least one.
And now you're saying to these teams, pick a country
that that can be your fan base. You're the official
(25:53):
football team of Brazil. You're the official team of London,
like Jacksonville's laid claim too, or Mexico City. This is
what the NFL. They want to globalize this. Well, you're
not going to have a team in another country, at
least this is what i'm told. So this is the
best way of doing that. That that's your team. Now
(26:15):
we sell more merchandise. Now all of a sudden, we
globalize this because that's what the NBA did. The NFL
wants to do this. I mean they tried the World
Football League, and while it was enjoyable to be able
to see some of these cities, it just didn't catch on.
But now you have a chance to say the Eagles
and the Packers are going to play here, and the
(26:38):
Eagles want to lay claim to this city.
Speaker 11 (26:41):
Yeah, Poem Roger Goodell is very smart in how he
presents it. A McAfee's show, he didn't say I'm in
favor of an eighteen game schedule. He actually said, quote,
I think we're good at seventeen now, but we were
looking at everything. I like the fans. I'm not a
big fan of the preseason, and I'd be fine if
people wanted to replace a preseason game with the eighteen game.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
It's almost like he's.
Speaker 11 (26:58):
Taking it off him and saying, I won't want the
crowd wants.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I want, saying this for years that get rid of
the posts, preseason, cut it down to two games, and
then to know the owners, they want to have four,
they want to have five.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
You know they wanted revenue. I get it, Well, do I.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Want preseason revenue or do I want regular season revenue?
I'll take regular season revenue. And they're going to go
to eighteen games and they're going to back up the
Super Bowl. We talked about that as well. You can
do it and you're gonna have a three day weekend.
All of this stuff that this has already been decided.
(27:37):
It's just when do you make it public that you're
going to do this? Hey, then you then you got
to talk to the NFLPA, and then they they're going
to say, hey, what do you want?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
What do you want? How about this?
Speaker 2 (27:50):
How about instead of a fifty three man roster, how
about you have a fifty seven man roster. How About
we have an extra quarterback. How About we have an
extra offensive player, an extra defensive player, an ext special
teams player.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Or maybe just a wild card position there this way,
you create four more jobs, you give a little bit
more depth because you're going to have injuries. We had
over sixty quarterbacks start last year. Throw a pass, so
then you get more paychecks, more people getting paychecks, and
it might be a win win situation. But this is
(28:26):
going to happen. It's not a question of if. But
when I mentioned this about having some information a source
telling me about Kirk Cousins, Now this is somebody who
loved Michael Pennix. He was the person who told me, Hey,
Pennis is going up, and the same guy who said
Mahomes was going up years ago, same guy who told
(28:47):
me Baker Mayfield was going number one overall. So he's
got a track record of knowing what he's talking about.
He said, Michael Pennix will get first team reps all
spring through OTA's mini cams. His arm talent will be
on display. That will be hard to ignore for the
Falcon players who won't be comfortable with Kirk Cousins, so
(29:15):
he called him Casey won't be comfortable. It won't be
comfortable for Kirk Cousins. So imagine that, and nobody's brought
that up. They're going to see Michael Pennix throughout the
summer because Kirk is still mending from achilles surgery and
they're going to see this and then they're going to go, oh,
my god, and that guy's not going to play for
a couple of years. How awkward is that going to be?
(29:40):
So Pennix will be there taking first team reps. They're
going to see the talent that he has, the arm
strength that he has, and then Kirk has to come
back and then he'll be your starting quarterback. Also, my
source said, you know, it's weird for a team that's
going to get in trouble for tampering with Kirk Cousins.
They wanted Kirk Cousins so bad they might get dinged
(30:02):
for tampering, and then they fell in love with Michael Pennix. So,
as my source said, how does that happen? You want
Kirk Cousins so badly, you're probably gonna lose a first
round draft pick because you tampered with Kirk Cousins, and
then you decided that you want to go all in
on Michael Pennix for the future. And then my source said,
(30:25):
this will be two years Kirk Cousins best case scenario
in his opinion will be two years and that'll be it.
Now they'll have to eat some of that. Or maybe
he's a backup quarterback, but he thinks Michael Pennix will
be the starting quarterback in the year three in the NFL.
So just some of the things that maybe you didn't
think about, nobody else did. But hey, we love this
(30:47):
guy so much. We're gonna tamper, we're gonna get we're
gonna lose a draft pick or two.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Oh man, we really love Michael Pennox junior.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
And then the fact that he's gonna take all those
first team reps and everybody's gonna see this, and it's
it's like when Justin Herbert when we saw him on
hard Knocks, and when veterans start to turn around and
watch a rookie and they're watching Justin Herbert and you
could see where they're going. Damn right, Kirk Cousin's going
(31:14):
to be in a cart and Michael Pennock's going to
be firing the ball all over the field and everybody's
gonna be like, all right, Michael, man, you're killing love you, Michael, yeah, man.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
And then Kirk's over there and going, hey, hey, good job.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
Mike, Yes, smart, you know what I changed my answer.
I do want the Falcons to be on hard knocks.
Can you imagine the wide receiver miked up Drake London
me and going, oh my god, if Pennix was in this.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Game right now?
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Yeah, yes, yes, Seaton.
Speaker 8 (31:43):
The Falcons are sounding like like they just fall in
love with who's in front of them, like if you
like my son, and I will. After the NFL Draft,
we always go back and see who the Patriots got,
and we watch highlight videos of who they got, and
it's like, what we got, you know, on Baker, this
dude's gonna be like the best wide receiver in the league,
or what the hell do we need Drake May for?
Speaker 1 (32:05):
When we got Joe Milton.
Speaker 8 (32:06):
Joe Milton's waving, you know, like you just fall in
love with whoever you're seeing and then you never actually
get to see them play because it was like a
sixth round tight end that's never gonna get off the
practice squad.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
There there is no way Michael Pennox has to wait
four years to play. It just doesn't like do you
want to be great now or try to be great now?
Or do you sort of want to be good now
and make sure that you're sort of good down the road,
because it feels like the Falcons were trying to play
both ends. Hey, we can win this division. Okay, the
(32:39):
guy who you drafted eighth overall doesn't help you unless
Kirk Cousins gets injured and down the road when Kirk's gone, Okay,
you got your quarterback. But are you gonna be kind
of good? They're they're they're kind of good this year.
I think you you aspire to be great in the division.
(33:01):
You could win, host a first round playoff game. Who knows,
ask the Packers and go on the road beat the Cowboys.
Never never, you know, go into a season where you go,
you know, our goal is to kind of win the division.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Now it's hey, we're going to win the division.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
We're going to host a playoff game, and I could
see us going to the NFC title game. You have
to have aspirations, I would think. But with the Falcons,
feels like they're trying to do both. We're kind of good,
and we hope we're kind of good in a couple
of years. Take a break. More phone calls coming up
back after this. Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show. Podcast.

Say across the Top lot against Marshalls on ball pressure
as nineteen points in Game four gets the tort pick started,
I McCollum on the switch to We'll face on with
the step, laz and up and lays at home as
he weaved inside, snaking his way for the deuce.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Give him twenty one.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Tonight Shay gilgis Alexander thunderbeat the Pelicans sweep their first
round series, and they did it with defense. Pelicans didn't
score more than ninety two points in those four games.
OKSEE is a team that you really have to watch.
You can't watch the highlights and figure out who they are.
(34:31):
Good team, deep team, young team. And I was wondering,
you know, when it comes to that experience or lack
thereof OKC or Minnesota, you know the team that has
the best chance to knock off Denver.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
I would say Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
They feel and you've got a couple of experienced players
there not necessarily experience going deep into the playoffs, but
with Karl Anthony Towns Rudy Gobert have a little bit
more experience there. Uh but okay, see fun to watch
as long as Shay gilgis and uh and chet don't sing.
(35:09):
I'm fine with that. You know that that commercial and
they play it so often. Sometimes when a commercial is bad,
it's okay, you can tolerate it. But when it gets
played a lot and you're like, oh no, and then
all of a sudden, I'm mad at at and T
for no other reason, Then how'd you allow this to happen?
Chet holmgrun in SGA doing their singing? Uh, you know,
(35:32):
A little flat?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
A little flat? Do we have it? Marvin?
Speaker 2 (35:37):
No, why don't you sing it? Don't you what a
pro want?
Speaker 5 (35:44):
Okay?
Speaker 11 (35:45):
Is it bad on purpose or is it bad?
Speaker 2 (35:48):
I think they salvaged it with the last line by
SGA where he says it's a little flat. I think
they probably thought most people think they can sing. I
think most people feel like, you know, hey, listen to this.
Speaker 11 (36:01):
Why does the commercial annoy people so much because it's
universally disliked?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Well, I don't think they know who these guys are
to begin with.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
No.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
I mean it's true.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
It's like if Gronk was singing that, we'd be like,
all right, Gronk is bad, But it would be more
entertaining because we would know, oh, that's Gronk and he's
being a goofball like Chad Holmgren looks like Abe Lincoln,
you know Rangier?
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Yes, yes, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (36:34):
Should they have done it with their jerseys on?
Speaker 9 (36:36):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (36:38):
That would have helped. It would have been weird though,
going out to the team boss. But if you had
your warm ups on, maybe and we took a shot
from behind and got your names.
Speaker 8 (36:49):
And people would be like, why didn't they get real
basketball players to do it instead of these actors get
Lebron James and Steph Curry?
Speaker 1 (36:55):
Do you have some of it? Marvin?
Speaker 9 (36:58):
And I'm baker fun knowing exactly what ifro wants, what
a prone needs.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Whatever makes me happy, says me, free good, a little
bit slap. We'll get better at providers.
Speaker 11 (37:15):
Who I'm bothered by it? But why does it bother people?
Because it's average below? Ever, singing has nothing to do
with cell phones?
Speaker 1 (37:22):
Well, first of all, I don't even know what they're singing.
I don't know either. So they're singing a song I
don't even know what it is and what time I've heard.
Speaker 8 (37:30):
That song before.
Speaker 5 (37:31):
I have to check out who singing.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
I was like, what a girl wants, what a girl needs?
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Ye, so I don't even know what they're singing. And
at first I was like, that's Chad Holmgren. I mean,
I know they're trying to get you know, Shay gilgis
some national publicity. Is that Christina Aguileraton you that would
not be in your wheelhouse other than she's good looking.
Speaker 5 (37:52):
I do see Christina.
Speaker 6 (37:53):
That may be a remake though I thought that was
an older song, but I see Christina Aguilera for that.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
Well, it is a remake from what they were doing
when they were singing it. But no, it's not, I
don't know, not clever.
Speaker 11 (38:05):
Like your first national ad, and it drives people crazy
people it's on all the time. I've seen it four times.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
That's part of the problem though, too, where if you
have the novelty of it and then you're like, oh, okay,
they should have font to put their names. Chad Holmegroun
and Shay Gilgus. Alexander Staut of the Day Brought to

Trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Okay, but how many commercials are bad? Like Gronk?
Speaker 9 (38:37):
Exactly what makes me heavy?
Speaker 7 (38:44):
Says me?
Speaker 1 (38:44):
Free?
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Can it border on? Can you border on catchy? Like
Gron's commercials are silly, but it's Gronk, so we sort
of accept that they're not good. But it's like and
he's still trying to get insurance and bothted.
Speaker 11 (39:03):
The tennis one, I thought I meant your serf, Oh.
Speaker 1 (39:07):
I thought you that.
Speaker 6 (39:08):
I thirve Yes, there's a fine line between cringey and catchy.
And with that one, because it's played so much, even
though it's meant to be bad, with that throwaway line
at the end, you know that, you know we need
to work on it.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Okay, but.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Patrick Mahomes commercials, how about the subway commercials? Are those
like I'm only entertained by hearing Barkley try to cram
as many words as possible into like he's got thirty
seconds of copy and he's got to get it into
eighteen seconds and he's just reading as fast as he can.
Those are kind of coin What about the State Farm?
Speaker 11 (39:46):
Lightly fun?
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Okay? Yeah, Paul, I.
Speaker 11 (39:49):
Love the subway commercial that they signed up Tom Brady.
Everyone knows that he's never eaten subway, would never eat
so but I'll take the money to do the commercial.
I almost respect it, weirdly like, but they use Tom
Brady like everyone knows he doesn't need it, so let's
put him in the ad.
Speaker 1 (40:04):
But is it? Is there a great commercial involving athletes?
Speaker 12 (40:08):
Now?
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah? Mark?
Speaker 5 (40:09):
What about Nationwide is on your side and not Peyton Manning?
Speaker 4 (40:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:16):
I mean they yeah, they had some legs, had some legs.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
I can't think of that's it.
Speaker 5 (40:25):
And I'm thinking, you.
Speaker 9 (40:30):
Promly exactly what whatever?
Speaker 1 (40:44):
Say it is?
Speaker 8 (40:44):
It's a flat it's flat singing flat. Yeah, it's a
little flat, but we'll we'll get it.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
That's the joke. Do you think they were actually trying
to sing? Well?
Speaker 10 (40:52):
No, well, I don't think that they could sing better
than that.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Okay, so they were trying.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Yeah, I think that they're I don't think they went
in it and go, yeah, you know, these guys are
PAVROTI but I want you guys to dumb it down
a little bit, you know, I don't want you to
sing well, yes, Mark.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
My favorite part is they dap each other up afterwards
like you know, we killed it.
Speaker 10 (41:15):
Yeah check kinda is like what he's got his hand on?
Speaker 9 (41:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (41:18):
Killing this right now? Yeah? Okay?
Speaker 2 (41:22):
Is there a follow up this? Do they do one postseason?
We're Christina Aguilera, Well, they can't do that to her.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
That seems to mean spirited.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
