us live on the Peacock Act. Final Hour in this Wednesday,
Gang's all here, morale is high. Phone calls are always welcome.
We'll have a new poll question the final Hour. Big
Game coming up Saturday night on NBC in primetime, Ohio
State and Notre Dame in South Bend, Ohio State favored

(00:44):
by three entertainment purposes only. By the way, do you
see where the NFL slap the NFL Players Association with
a cease and desist for instructing running backs to fake injuries?
So the league filed a grievance against the NFL Players
Association alleging that the Players Association has been advising running

(01:08):
backs to fake injuries as a tactic for contract negotiations,
obviously a violation of the collective Bargaining Agreement. A copy
of the memo was obtained by the Athletic and it
states that this summer and throughout training camp, the players
Union began recommending players unhappy with their contracts to either

(01:29):
pretend to have or exaggerate a pre existing injury as
a way to gain leverage in contract negotiations. Could this
have played in the Jonathan Taylor situation with the Colts
because he said he was healthy and then he had
an ankle injury, and then he was sitting out and
he had an angle injury, and I don't know if

(01:50):
it was sort of exacerbated there. Per the Washington Post,
which was the first to report the news, the NFL
wants the NFLPA to be slapped with a cease and
desist order from improper conduct, as well as other remedies
that the arbitrator deemed appropriate. No running backs were named

(02:13):
in the grievance, which was filed last week. Well, judging
from Nick Chubb and Saquon Barkley, you don't have to
fake an injury, yes, Pauline.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
The keyword we all reacted to when you said that
story is memo. How do you put that in an
email or a printed document that you hand to the
running backs under your watch. That's where you do a
conference call. There's no record of it, or you call
it running backs individually. How would you actually put a
memo together?

Speaker 1 (02:40):
I never understand that you put something in writing. When
how about we talk in person. We don't have to
talk on the phone. We don't put something in writing. Yeah. Seen.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
How are you an organized labor union? And never heard
the term paper trail before? I mean, if anybody knows
about paper trail, it's unions.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
You kids out there.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
If you're going to break the rules, yes, base to
face conversation, yes, yes, Tom.

Speaker 5 (03:05):
Isn't this what NBA teams are going to do to
fight the new load management rules? They're just not going
to say it out loud or put it.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
In writer probably so. By the way, Dame Lillard said that,
I think he was on a podcast. I'd like to
give credit to the podcast. It is what it is podcast.
Dame Lillard said this. I respect what the Warriors are
doing and over the last eight nine years or whatever.

(03:32):
And I'm from there obviously that's home, but I can't
be part of that. The Oakland Natives said they won
four championships. What I look like going to try to
do that. I don't even it doesn't even make sense.
I never do nothing like that. I'd lose every year

(03:52):
before I would go to Golden State. Okay, we're still
waiting for that possibility him being traded from Portland. According
to Brian Windhorst, Wendy of The Mothership says Portland is
seeking a hall similar to what Brooklyn got from the
Phoenix Suns for Kevin Durant. They want the Heat to

(04:14):
literally scrounge into every nook and cranny and produce everything
they possibly can. When Horse said on Monday on his
podcast The Hoop Collective, Okay, he doesn't want to win
a championship with Golden State, doesn't want to do basically
what Kevin Durant did. Yes, yeah, I don't have a
problem with that. Do you know the hole? No, Dame

(04:36):
wants to have his own team. But here's the thing.
He's not going to stay in Portland. He wants to
go to Miami and now they haven't won titles, but
that's Jimmy Butler's team that you're going to. You're always
going to somebody else's team. If you leave your team,
it's you know, unless you're going to a team that's
not good at all and doesn't really have that face.
But I get it that do I want to go

(04:57):
and win a title when it's still going to be
Steph Hurry's titles that I'm winning. I'm helping him win
those titles.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yes, but they nobody will go to his team, and
he's tried. Yes, it's very clear he's been more than patient,
more than loyal to that organization. At some point, it's
obvious no one's going there, so you have to, well,
this goes back to what happened with Lebron.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
He couldn't get anybody to go to Cleveland famously, you know,
tried to get Chris Bosh to go there. Chris Bosh
is like, I'm not even gonna fly over Cleveland. I'm
going right to Miami. And then Lebron joined d Wade's team.
But it then, you know, Lebron is such a big name,
big profile, that it became his team and Dwayne Wade

(05:42):
sort of turned it over to him, but it was
Lebron won his titles with Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh.
But Dame Lillard, when is this going to happen? Is
this a game of you know who's gonna blink first?
You want to keep him?

Speaker 6 (05:57):
All right?

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Go ahead and keep him? Or we really need him?
Are we going to scrounge up everything we possibly can
to get him in Miami?

Speaker 7 (06:05):
Yes?

Speaker 8 (06:05):
Mark, and I thought the rumor started to swear a
little bit during the Colorado game. Kyle Lowry was with
Chauncey Billups at the Colorado game, so I was like, Oh, okay,
maybe they're already working out the trade to get a
dame over there.

Speaker 6 (06:17):
So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Oh, so Kyle Lowry in Portland? Yeah, and then and
then okay.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
I'm it would be more people than Kyle Lowry for Yeah,
that's try to make that clear.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Okay, well you gotta get Tyler.

Speaker 6 (06:32):
Hero and a couple other guys probably, so.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yes, But which criticism would you prefer? A great NBA
player who never gets a title but stays loyal to
his team, like a Tony Gwynn in baseball Damian Willard
and basketball, or a guy who jumps around and picks
up some title jump around like Kevin Durant gets critiqued
for having titles, but he has titles to get critiqued for.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
You know, I respect Damian Lillard.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
I only if my team is not trying to win
the franchise. Yes, if the franchise is not trying to win,
then I could understand somebody wanting to go elsewhere. Not.
I mean, Kevin Durant's been on teams that win, and
you know, famously left Oklahoma City when they should have
closed out Golden State and they didn't, and then he

(07:20):
jump ship instead of saying, man, we were that close,
we're that good. Stay here in Oklahoma City. Like that's
something that would have lasted forever. Imagine if Kevin Durant
had won a title in Oklahoma City. I mean, that's
bigger than if you win three titles with somebody else.
In my opinion, what you would mean to the NBA

(07:42):
and Oklahoma City and that you knock off Golden State.
Yannis in Milwaukee, the Joker in Denver, Dirk and Dallas.
They may only end up with one, but those one
are huge and I have great respect for those players. Now,

(08:03):
if you say, if I'm Yannis, I don't re sign
with Milwaukee, And the reason why I don't is it's
an older team and you know he wants to be
He's the reason why he is who he is is
because he still wants to be great every night, every year,
bottom line, winning a championship. But if you look at
the players, you know, they're in their early thirties to

(08:26):
mid thirties, and he probably has to look around and go,
do I want to, you know, try to have this
team compete? And he's going to want to go elsewhere.
You know, Dirk stayed in Dallas. Dallas was always competitive,
but Durant has bounced around, and you know, Brooklyn was
supposed to be good, had talent, Oklahoma City. You know,

(08:47):
now he's in Phoenix. He wanted out. He's going to
good teams. But I respect those guys who stay one
place or at least they get that one title, and
what that means to that city I don't think can
be measured. Yeah, Pauling, this is.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
A deep hypothetical, and I hesitate to bring Lebron in,
but I was thinking about that.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
Of course, you have to imagine Lebron James stayed in
Cleveland his entire career and was in let's say he
played like fifteen years, lost like three or four finals,
just got in there a few times and they lost.
They just never did it like a Tony Gwynn, or
you can like a Patrick Ewing, like a Charles Barkley,
but he stayed in one spot.

Speaker 4 (09:26):
How would we look at him?

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Let's say the numbers were the same, thirty points, eight rebounds,
insists all time numbers, but no titles, a bunch of appearances,
but loyal to one team. I can't imagine how he'd
be looked at, respected.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
But well, he wouldn't be in the conversation of greatest player.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
Of all time because he can't with no titles.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yes, even with one title, he still wouldn't be in
the conversation.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
Would he be like Dan Marino? Where you talk about
the great quarterbacks of all time? You talk about Dan
Reno and you have to point out he has no titles,
but he's still ability wise, clearly one of the greatest.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
If you said I could play just play like any quarterback,
I'd play like Dan Marino.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
Joe Montana said a month ago.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
I mean, Montana obviously decorated Tom Brady, but if you said, hey,
you're gonna play the position like that guy, I would
be Dan Marino. Now Patrick Mahomes comes into the conversation
as well, but Marino was so far ahead of everybody.
It's like watching Bob Coosey play against you know, some

(10:28):
of these guys the way he handled the ball, and
or Jerry West when he's playing against guys who are
doing two hand set shots, and you're like, that guy
is completely different than everybody else. That was Dan Marino.
He was different than anybody else back then.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Yes, I wonder who, sort of like piggybacking off of
Paul's thought of if Lebron had stayed in Cleveland and
maybe not won any rings, who then would have won
rings and who.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Would be.

Speaker 9 (10:55):
Considered much greater.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Yeah, that's that's that's a great point. Kevin Durant might have.

Speaker 9 (11:01):
Kevin Durant might have.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Yeah, he might have a bunch of he might have five.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Yeah, just think about the teams that they ran through,
and then how many people would be considered all time
greats now but aren't because they don't have those rings.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
San Antonio they might got it, might have gotten another one.

Speaker 6 (11:18):
Celtics, maybe another one.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Yeah, the eighteen. It bothers Marvin because they should have won.

Speaker 6 (11:28):
There's too much drama. One title.

Speaker 8 (11:30):
I know, you see that twenty eleven Mavericks. They're hanging out. Oh, yeah,
we'll get together reunion all that. These dudes over your
beef and Big Baby and ray Al and and Ron
are they ready to fight?

Speaker 6 (11:41):
And Doc Rivers I don't know, like all this stuff
come on ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
For one ring. Wait, are you working on your Doc
Rivers impersonation?

Speaker 6 (11:50):
Yeah? Kind of, that's pretty good.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Actually, like Doc always sounds like he's been in the postseason.
In preseason, they're like, Doc, how's your voice so horrid?

Speaker 3 (12:00):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
I don't know him my bed, you know what. I
love him be man. He can play, Yes, Paul pretty good.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
He remember we had him in studio Los Angeles and
he came in the morning and he had coaches his
voice right in the morning.

Speaker 4 (12:15):
He's like, hey, gold to beat you guys.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Hey, I've been yelling at paper Boy, yell at every
get on.

Speaker 6 (12:21):
I lan you take away game sevens. I'm a great coach.

Speaker 4 (12:25):
Cod.

Speaker 6 (12:29):
I don't know who said that, but that's not cool.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
I don't can hear you?

Speaker 6 (12:33):
That's cool?

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah, Then we tried to get him on and then
uh another time, Uh, what's the poll question for the
final hour? Here to see you?

Speaker 3 (12:47):
Okay, Well you started out that way.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
That was uncalled like Paulie used to be the biggest
jerk here, I yield it.

Speaker 5 (12:57):
Yeah, playful impersonations, like.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
He's been removed from it for being too good at
being the biggest jerk.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
So it's like the paul Perhaps Award. Yeah, Emeritis, thank you, yes.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
Thank you very much. It's very thoughtful.

Speaker 6 (13:13):
Emeritus.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Yes, put that on my shirt.

Speaker 9 (13:20):
You're just you're a professional at this point, and this
is an amateur.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
I can't crank it up when I need to once
in a while, just you know, I picked my spots now.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
Like the old day.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
It's like it's like you're an athlete. I can't play
like I used to, but once in a while I
can crank it up.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, Todd came in in a mood today.

Speaker 6 (13:37):
I don't know why.

Speaker 5 (13:37):
It must be my three and a half four hours
asleep that I got.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
I know, but you poop pooed everything that we were talking.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
About special Penthouse for the first ballot Hall of Famers.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
I was going to bring that up to Jeff Powson.
Should we have that for baseball where you have first
ballot Hall of Famers? And but I thought, you know,
it's just going to trigger you again.

Speaker 4 (13:57):
Triggered pretty easily.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, you do, Yes, you do?

Speaker 6 (14:00):
All right?

Speaker 1 (14:00):
What's the poll question for the final hour?

Speaker 3 (14:02):
Seat Dan, Let me update you on our listener's sleep schedule. First,
how many hours of sleep do you get a night?
Under eight or plus eight?

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Right now?

Speaker 3 (14:10):
Only fifteen percent are getting eight plus Okay, five percent
of the audience gip.

Speaker 6 (14:16):
Not enough.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
When we brought this up, there was a story. There's
a picture on the Blue Jays and he sleeps at
least eleven, sometimes thirteen hours a night. He goes to
bed at eleven, he wakes up at one in the afternoon.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
He's not a fourteen year old.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
No, no, he's not a college kid too sleepy.

Speaker 4 (14:34):
Kakuchi is the name?

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah? No, what's his name?

Speaker 4 (14:36):
You say Kakuchi?

Speaker 1 (14:38):
You yeah, you say Kukuchi, I say Kukuchi. We all
say cukuci. What else?

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Also, if you're an Amazon TV executive, would you allow
Ryan Fitzpatrick to shave his beard? Your options were yes,
of course it's his face or absolutely not? Hashtag branding
right now, branding of fifty four percent if that's swapped though,
because before it was his face.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Yeah, I might be his, but it's mine too.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
Yeah, yeah, we kind of like it's sort of like
you have to run it by your wife. If you're
shaving your beard, you gotta run it by your TV
ex excib.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Jim Rome is not saving shaving his goate Yeah. Wire
to wire uh. I think Travis Kelce's brother Jason Kelcey,
has confirmed the rumors that Travis Kelcey is dating Taylor Swift.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
A that's news.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Yeah, that is that is some breaking news and good
for Travis Kelcey. You know, he took a shot, got rejected,
he got my tumboed and he came back. Yeah, poem.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
You ever see those TV shows were like really hot
actresses and famous people, Like, nobody ever asked me out,
Like Charlie's things. She was on Letterman twenty years ago.
She goes, they never get asked out. That's because we're
all scared of you. Yeah, because the average guy who's
like an even an eight can't walk up to Charlie's thereon.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Yeah, they always say those stories on those shows.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
I know, like who are you dating? Well, nobody, I
mean people don't ask me out right, I.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Mean it's true because who's walking up to Taylor Swift?
Probably security won't.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Let you yeah, you can't get there.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yeah, so you can't do a walk up on her
even though she was at a restaurant.

Speaker 4 (16:08):
You're not in her circle.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Now, Taylor Swift decides who she's dating. You don't decide
if she's going to date.

Speaker 10 (16:14):
You.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
Excuse me, sir, I was just hoping to go hit
on Taylor real quick. Yes, I just I was just
gonna shoot my shot. Right, No, okay, thank you, fair enough?

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yes, Ton.

Speaker 5 (16:22):
Sometimes that's some of the same women that said, I
don't know how I look like this pizza and burgers
and cheetos and I never work out, and I just
I guess I have good genetics and high metabolism.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Now, I really had a hard time walking up to
the prettiest girl in the room. Always always like I
would just sort of be there on the preiffery, and
you know, if she like noticed me, then maybe there's
a you know, hi, Hi. Never would. I always admired
those guys who had all that confidence that they would

(16:54):
just walk up. And I have a friend he is
incredible at walking up and all of a sudden, I'll
be like, what are you doing? He goes, ah, you know,
I'm gonna sit down with this woman like, yeah, I
bought her drink. Where you sit down? He said, okay,
I'll just sit over here. All right, I thought we
were hanging out. I'll just sit over Yeah, I'll just

(17:15):
sit over here like a loser. Yes.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Well, you know what's great move if you see a
group of women and there's an alpha dog in the
group where just she's the one seed, go up to
the second best looking one, make a B line to
the one that's just you know, the B plus.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
And then she's gonna get competitive.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
No, then she's because she usually gets ignored.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
As Fritsy would say, yeah, you walk up to the
second tier, the JV girl second, and that's how we
scot him. And you walk up and then she's like,
oh he went for me instead of Charlie's there on who's.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Oh okay, there's a whole book about this. Oh yeah,
that guy wrote the yeah, the game.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Game Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a move.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Yeah yeah, you talk to uh not the girl that
you're interested in. And then this is the guy that
wrote this book. Not be saying it, but anyway, I'm
not going to get into it. He's got a whole
strategy on which is both fascinating and incredibly insulting to women.

Speaker 4 (18:09):
Sounds good.

Speaker 9 (18:11):
Yes, more like the limp biscuit era of hitting up.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
I think it was, you know, a little more macho
aggressions than but it makes sense in general.

Speaker 5 (18:20):
You could strike out, you know, swinging for the fences,
or you got a nice double or triple with someone
that's considered an average picture that you hit it off of.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, but you know what, I might have been a
slumpmuster for somebody else. Somebody could have been a slumpmuster
for me. I tell this story. You know what, let
me take a break. I think I've told this story.
I should probably check with the former baseball player who
told me this. You know what, Let's take a break,
take a break. We'll come back after this Dan Patrick Show.

busa dot com slang EQ Paulie says he has an

(21:32):
unbelievable Taylor Swift idea and that she could make a
who knows how much money for an hour's time.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yeah, okay, So for years there's been rumors that Taylor Swift,
they've always wanted her to do halftime with the super
Bowl for multiple reasons. You've heard that she wouldn't do it.
Whether it's like it messes up her schedule, it's not
worth it, she doesn't mean make any money off it.
What if she did an alternative halftime Super Bowl show
pay per view? I looked it up that the halftime
the super Bowl is way longer than normal halftime. It

(22:00):
gets like thirty five minutes between you know, whistle to whistle.
What if as soon as they go the whistle of
the second quarter, you can have a pay per view
concert of Taylor Swift live, an abbreviated thirty minute show,
six or seven songs, I don't know how long her
songs are, and you charge a reasonable rate for it
because it's a concert. Ish you have the biggest TV

(22:23):
audience in the world sitting in front of the TV's
already with their controllers already ready to go. You have families,
you have people, and if you compare her halftime show
to whatever the NFL puts together, people would shift their money.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
If it's reason.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Let's say it was nineteen ninety five, but she's going
to get two hundred million subscriptions worldwide.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Yeah, but then she would look bad to the other musicians,
the other acts who are going to be at the
super Bowl, that she's big footing them.

Speaker 4 (22:50):
Maybe, But from a business standpoint, I bet she.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Doesn't need the money she's Her concerts are now in
movie theaters, right.

Speaker 4 (23:00):
I just think that she'd make it.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
I think she can make a billion dollars in one
day off this.

Speaker 4 (23:05):
And I'm being said, I beout. Someone who knows this
business better could break it down.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
But do you want to be that person that's going
to go, oh, halftime show, I'll put mine on. Why
didn't you know you can just go on the halftime show?

Speaker 4 (23:19):
She makes zero. I don't think they pay. It's exposure.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
All she hasked to do is say, well, she can
just say, if you want me, this is what I want.
If you don't, then you know I won't do the
halftime show. She doesn't need them. They probably need her
more than she needs them. But yeah, the NFL doesn't pay.
They basically say, but look, everybody's done this. Look at

(23:42):
all the acts who have done this, Springsteen, stones Prints.
Do you want to be that one musical act that
didn't do the super Bowl? Now she doesn't need the exposure.

Speaker 9 (23:55):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
I don't know if the NFL is going to go,
we want a piece of your record set after this,
and they might. I don't know did they do that
to other musical acts where they said, you know, we
want we're not paying you, we'll give you the opportunity,
because I thought when you had the the rap artists,

(24:18):
those guys made a lot of money after the fact
when people bought their music. I don't know if the
NFL prevented that, yeah bo.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
In the past, there's been a couple of counter super
Bowl halftime shows. The first one was actually in living color.
In living color the TV show The Waynes Brothers. Yeah,
in nineteen ninety two, they did an alternative super Bowl
halftime and it actually did very well for them. And
there's been a few other places have done you know,
different things, but none of them were that big.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
I would have a country one I mean, I'm still
waiting for the country artists to get up there, you know, collectively. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
See, I'm reading an article here from I think twenty
fifteen maybe, or it's a little older, okay, sorry fourteen.

Speaker 9 (25:00):
It says the NFL has narrowed down the list of.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Potential performers for the twenty fifteen Super Bowl to three candidates, Rihanna,
Katy Perry, and Coldplay. While notifying these artists camps of
their candidacy, league representatives also asked, at least some of
the acts if they would be willing to contribute a
portion of their post Super Bowl tour income to the league,
or if they would make some other type of financial

(25:24):
contribution in exchange for the halftime gig. So they were
basically saying, if you want to play the halftime, you
have to.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
Pay us for the exposure. We don't pay you. Hi
here and do that. If I'm Taylor Swift, no way,
and I'm good, No, I'm good. Yes, the NFL, Hey,
you know, could you contribute to our funds? Here? Get
out of here before the break. I was going to
tell you this story, and it's a former baseball player
and we were talking one night and he was talking

(25:52):
about how he was going through a slump and he
was trying to hook up with somebody and it's called
us slumpbuster. And so he meets this person and then
the next day he finds out that he was this
woman's slumpbuster, like she was going through a bad time

(26:13):
and needed and and and he's a former first baseman
for the Chicago Cubs.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
But he must not be a great looking guy then,
and based off slumpbuster definition, No, he's.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Mark Grace, oh no names. Yeah, yeah, he's a handsome man, yes,
very And then he said, oh my god, I found
out I was her slumpbuster. He was single at the time.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
Just did she have a better second half of the season?

Speaker 1 (26:42):
She did, Yeah she did. She had a good stretch run, Yeah,
she did. Playoff hopes. The Browns have signed Kareem Hunt.
He was with them for a few years. He had
that moment with Kansas City, got into something off the
field to violence, I believe, and then went to the Browns. Yeah, pulling.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
Yeah, he was on the roster with the chief the
Chiefs for a few years. He led the league in
rushing as a rookie thirteen hundred yards, great receiver, he
looked like he was on his way. Yeah, and then
his career cooled off, both on and off the field.
Last year he didn't start, but he ran for four
hundred and sixty eight yards. He had forty forty catches.
But they shifted all the money that Nick Chubb a

(27:25):
few years ago. It didn't pay Cream Hunt. But he's
only twenty seven, ninety twenty eight years old.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Really, Yeah, I forgot that he led the NFL in
the rush his rookieyear.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
He's fantastic. Thirteen hundred yards, eight touchdowns and fifty three receptions.
He had eighteen hundred dollar purpose yards. And I think
he was a third round draft pick. Mac Yeah, Toledo. Yeah,
he fumbled on his I know that was you remember that, Yes,
you were doing Football Night in America.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Didn't they say that he's never fumbled. He didn't fumble
in college.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
Al Michaels had it his first carry of his rookie year.
He fumbles, and al Michaels had it on his sheet
and he said, that's his first fumble life.

Speaker 4 (28:01):
He didn't fall on four years at college.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Dave and Pittsburgh, Hi, Dave, what's on your mind?

Speaker 7 (28:07):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Dan?

Speaker 10 (28:07):
I have an offer to make you since you're retiring,
and then I have a very unceremonious firing.

Speaker 11 (28:13):
Okay, before you retire.

Speaker 10 (28:15):
You and the dan Neuts have to attend a Penn
State white out. And I am a longtime season ticket holder,
and I would do everything I could to make it
a very enjoyable weekend. I would buy you white out
T shirts, hoodies, caps, whatever, so you would fit in
with the crowd. And if you would like to take
my name and number, I would leave it with your guy,
and I would do everything possible to make it a

(28:37):
very enjoyable weekend.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
All right, Dave will put you on hold and Tyler
will take all your information when I retire in four
years or is this before I retire? I think before years,
before I retire, because after I retire, nobody's going to
care about me. They may not care now, yes, yeah, yes.

Speaker 8 (28:57):
Marm Do you have any ideas about what you want
to do regarding road trips or anything like that? Besides
the Super Bowl no Ireland next.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Year, I'd like to go to a Premier League game,
but maybe we combine that with an NFL game and
then we go over to London. I think that would
be fun.

Speaker 9 (29:14):
There's exactly two of those dates that work, okay, not
that I've looked into it.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
Okay, let's go one of the two problem soul all right.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
Well, no, no, no, there's a little bit more to
the logistics.

Speaker 9 (29:25):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, not much more though, where we do again?

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Now there is right there. Yeah, you just don't go
there and you plug in something and then you go.
We go almost essentially how it works. No, it does not. Yeah,
you just need their funny adapters. They have different plays.
They do have the funny I know.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
It's September twenty ninth, Yeah, Falcons Jaguars in London, and
then that's at Wembley I think, and then October sixth
is Jaguars Bills at Tottenham Stadium, which would be pretty sick.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
Well, we don't have to be at the stadium. We
have to just find a place where we could do
the show.

Speaker 9 (30:05):
Near that stadium perhaps, Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Fritzy has written a Taylor Swift breakup song with Travis Kelcey.

Speaker 5 (30:12):
If Taylor Swift was to break up with Travis Kelcey,
what it might go there. I won't sing it, but
I was gonna read a few verses.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
Okay, Okay, here we go.

Speaker 5 (30:20):
He holds up that trophy, but I won't be his
things started out so bubbly. Now all that's left is fizz.
He runs all sorts of patterns and ran around on me.
Now he's all about himself. When I thought that it
was we they loved him in Kansas City till he barbecued.
My heart too late to come crawling back. Learn how

(30:40):
to finish what you start. You fumbled your big chance.
I'm selling out the domes. You take away too much credit.
Everyone knows it's all mahomes.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Barbecue, barbecue my heart. It's a good line that sounds
like a restaurant. I'm going to go to barbecue my heart. Uh,
thank you, Todd.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
You talk about the breakup. They just got together.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, but you have to do this. We love love, though,
I do love love. And I hope that ted Ta
finds it. I hope Jennifer Aniston finds it. I mean,
I want everybody to find it. Charlie's there on I
want her to find it as well. It's a wonderful feeling,
isn't it. Guys? No, No, nobody Tim in Wisconsin, Good morning, Tim,

(31:28):
what's on your mind?

Speaker 12 (31:30):
Oh, it's a beautiful morning out here.

Speaker 10 (31:32):
Dan.

Speaker 12 (31:34):
I tried to get in yesterday before you guys decided
on the Dukies for your Craffensburg State because I think
that the perfect name for them would be the dingleberries
with a mascot being a bush with large brown.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
Thank you, Tim, thank you too far. Ye see.

Speaker 9 (31:54):
The fun thing about the dukes, you know, you're not
the Dukies.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
It's a little more it's a little more subtle, not
as on the noses like the Crappensburg State poops.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
We're dipping our toe.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Come on, you're better than that, Tim, aren't you? Come on?
Come on? Don't you understand the sense of humor of
this show.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
The reason that Crappensburg State the number two be option
number two options Crappensburg State Turtles. Ye see, that's funny. Yeah,
it's a little more subtle while also being not very
and we like.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
To tap you on the back like just subtle. That's all.
By the way, we've sold We've sold almost four hundred
T shirts Crappensburg State. This makes me so happy available
with Dan Patrick.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Do that was like one of those T shirts where
I'm like, well, it's just good for the joke. Nobody's
gonna buy this thing and turns.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Out there you are.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Yeah, it's amazing, it's it's it's a joke, but they're
still buying. Wait till we get the coffee mugs and
bumper stickers.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
The bumper stickers are great. My son goes to Crappensburg State. Yeah,
my child made the Dean sta Crappensburg State. Yeah, Paul.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
And for those of you out there who buy the
shirts and the bumper stickers. When someone goes, hey, where

Speaker 1 (35:19):
Last call for phone calls. What we learn once in
store tomorrow? This day in sports history? What are we
watching tonight? Anything? Stand out? Am I watching alternative? Am
I watching something not sports related? Tonight? Maybe I'll catch
up on Only Murders in the Building my girlfriend Meryl
Streep on there? Am I doppel ganger Steve Martin?

Speaker 6 (35:44):
Do you see it?

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Marvin? I have not no me and Steve Martin?

Speaker 6 (35:49):
Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah, thank you for sure.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 6 (35:52):
So it's not as funny.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
But you weren't old enough, maybe weren't alive when he
did his stadium tour, when he had the arrow in
his head. The wild and crazy guy. No, that was
a big deal.

Speaker 6 (36:06):
But he grew up a poor black child.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
Yes, yes, that's one of those that's worth a deeper dive,
like you know, a rewatch. But I don't know if
you could do that now. It's weird how you think
we've progressed, but we haven't. There's certain things like All

(36:28):
in the Family that came out in the seventies and
that was wild. The storylines, what was said, the dialogue
on there, the characters on there. You couldn't do it now,
could not get away with that. It was that was
some strange TV. It was Norman Lear, Wasn't it that

(36:49):
he's still alive. I think he's really think he's a
hundred yeah, creative genius man. All Right, what do we
watch tonight?

Speaker 4 (36:57):
See what I got?

Speaker 2 (36:58):
I got Orioles Astro, A couple of good teams. No
football tonight, No no Mac, no MAC, no Swack, no
AAC nothing.

Speaker 4 (37:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
I think it's now. It's not fair to the kids, probably,
but I think it was brilliant that the MAC went
midweek and just standalone game for your conference and what
that does for your conference and some of these players
to get the recognition, because if you're playing on a
Saturday afternoon, you got no shot. But if you're a

(37:31):
standalone game and you know you're a smaller conference, I
think it's great marketing. What else do you have? Point?

Speaker 2 (37:40):
Yeah, Like there's a Thursday night game the Swack Arkansas,
Pine Bluff, Alabama A and M and that's on ESPNU.

Speaker 4 (37:45):
So do you get some eyeballs? But that's about it.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
It's just a lot of baseball, right, Yes, Ton just.

Speaker 6 (37:52):
Kind of promoted us.

Speaker 5 (37:52):
What else are you going to do Wednesday?

Speaker 6 (37:54):
Or something like that?

Speaker 5 (37:54):
Just got to be honest about it, like this is
this is the only real thing you think you're gonna
want to watch, So tune in.

Speaker 6 (38:00):
Are you going to do Wednesday?

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Thank you to Jay in Indianapolis, Hi, j.

Speaker 14 (38:05):
Hey DP, thanks for taking the call. First of all,
shout out to my son drives for FedEx and indian
His name's Dallas Number two. We both love it when
Fritzy shows up in a mood right off the bat.
We think it makes for a great show. So keep
it up, Fritzy and three all the talk of the
Hall of Fame. I would be curious, since everything's analytics,

(38:29):
if there was a way to do a program to
let a computer compile everything and produce a list of
who the best is and then compare that with who
the writers have put in over the years. I think
that would be great content. Wo'd love to know your
thoughts on that.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Okay, but you have to have humans put the information
in to the computers. And what information are they using
to put in? What is the metric? What are the
analytics putting it in there? Mike and Rochester? Hi Mike,
what's on your mind?

Speaker 7 (39:02):
Hey guys, thanks for taking my call first time, long time,
five seven one ninety eight. So, first of all, I
was gonna say I would propose that from now on, Dan,
if when someone brings up your retirement in honor of
Lebron's SB speech, you follow it up with, but today is.

Speaker 6 (39:22):
Not that day.

Speaker 1 (39:26):
Thank you, Mike. Yes, Pauline.

Speaker 2 (39:28):
There's a thing called Baseball Reference. It's kind of the
bible for all baseball stats.

Speaker 4 (39:31):
We use it a lot.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
Here.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
They have a thing called Hall of Fame Monitor, and
what it is is they grade your career with a number,
an overall number, and they decide whether that's Hall of
Fame worthy. And if you gets like I think like
one ten.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
But who is doing the rankings.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
It's the Baseball Hall of I'm sorry. Baseball Reference uses
all types of analytics of what they grade your career
with hitting, pitching. They have no opinion on like if
you played the amount of years or they you know
that that helps too you compile. But the all time
leader in Hall of Fame metrics for them is Stan musil.
Ty Cobb is second, Hank Aaron is third, and Babe

(40:06):
Ruth is fourth. So I don't know what their metric is,
but they have. That's who they say are the most
Hall of Fame Hall of Fame players. Albert Pooles is
the only active player in there. He's twelfth all time.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
But then, I mean, okay, Stan Musual was wonderful, great hitter,
but you know he wasn't a five tool player.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
They love the fact that he led the league in
so many categories. His stats are really kind of crazy.
He was an All Star for twenty straight seasons.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah, but Babe Ruth won ninety games as a pitcher,
hit seven hundred home runs and his batting average was
what three forty two? Yeah, I don't come on, it's silly,
I got you, man.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
Their all time pitching leader is Walter Johnson is the
greatest pitcher of all time in the baseball was a
different era. Roger Clemens is third.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Gon do they factor in steroids?

Speaker 4 (40:57):
No asterisk?

Speaker 1 (40:58):
Oh no, see that. I don't need ai. I don't
need any of this stuff. Just have people who saw
them play. That would be great. And then you know,
have have analytics to back up what you're talking about.
But oh my god, Okay, Chris and Albany, Hi, Chris,

(41:19):
what's on your mind?

Speaker 12 (41:21):
Hey?

Speaker 13 (41:22):
Dan?

Speaker 11 (41:22):
I think you guys may have stumbled into a good segment.
Maybe once a week or whatever, the dan out The
dan ats come up with a quote given by an
athlete or anybody else that's grammatically incorrect and make you
read it cold on the air like I did. Your
reading Dame's quote off that podcast was hilarious.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
You're right. I started to read it and I go, damn,
people are gonna think I don't know how to read it.
And and I ain't be doing nothing like that, to
be going with stuff and stuff. And I'd be like, what,
all right, Yeah, you're talking casual on a podcast. Next
thing you know, I'm reading you of verbatim. Here this

(42:07):
day in sports history.

Speaker 4 (42:08):
Paul right on.

Speaker 2 (42:09):
C Babe Ruth nineteen twenty seven hit home run number sixty,
broke his own record fifty.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
Nine from the year before, over rated.

Speaker 4 (42:16):
Ninety eight two.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
The NFL Players Association announced the strike would begin at
the completion of the Packers Giants Monday night game. That
was a nineteen eight two strike. Nineteen eighty six, Tony
Gwinn stole five bases in one.

Speaker 1 (42:27):
Game, and of course did they make them give him back.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
Nineteen eighty seven, Walter Payton scored touchdown number one oh
seven to break the all time NFL record by Jim Brown.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
Yeah, let's see anything else in here. Here's one. Salvador
Perez hit his forty sixth home run, breaking Johnny Bench's
baseball record for most home runs in a season by
a catcher. Yeah, that didn't bum me out, But I'm like,

(43:02):
should Salvador Perez beat Johnny Benches all time record?

Speaker 7 (43:06):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (43:08):
Yes, ten dollars. Who's he played for?

Speaker 12 (43:10):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (43:10):
Does he still play?

Speaker 7 (43:14):
See?

Speaker 6 (43:14):
I don't even know that's the thing?

Speaker 1 (43:16):
Fansas City?
