But this time you can kiss just fine.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Uh we say good morning if you're watching on Peacock

You know, we're doing a call back.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I got it nowhere we were, we were all ready.
You didn't even want it the first time.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
Now what was that we wanted a second?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Curious while we're running it back too.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
Yeah, that was audience, such an enthusiastic build up for
the first time.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
A whole new audience. Yeah, whole new I don't want
to cheat them.
Speaker 8 (02:00):
Maybe I didn't delete it altogether.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Okay, here we.
Speaker 6 (02:02):
Go, having gone over five cost some harm anxious for
your name to be called sweaty palm.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
They say, just getting nominated in honor.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
But that's crap, right seat O'Connor, Look at us now
the six times at charm.
Speaker 9 (02:16):
Okay, there's your acceptance speech of limericks.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Though.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, I'm told to keep it to thirty seconds or less.
I don't know. I mean we've waited a long time. Yeah,
should give us a little more than that, maybe sixty seconds.
Speaker 9 (02:35):
Yes, are there any must thanks tonight? M of course
everyone we want to thank with us.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I don't think you can get thirty seconds and thank
everybody you're supposed to think. I can thank them after.
I don't need to thank them when I'm on stage.
You know, tomorrow's show. We just thank everybody who's had
anything to do with the success of this show, which
is not a lot of people, but you know there's
some that we would give a shout out to. All right,
(03:03):
we'll get to phone calls. Give me the poll question
for the final hour. If you can't see, no count.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Yeah, we've updated it with several options.
Speaker 7 (03:10):
Okay, all right, I'll tell you some of the new
ones more disliked former Packers quarterback Brett Farv or Aaron Rodgers.
Right now, Aaron Rodgers is sixty seven percent of that vote.
And then we also put up there from Marvin whose
career would you want? Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers? And
right now Brett Farv has most of that vote.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
All right, I got a text last night from the
Voice of Indianapolis, the self proclaimed voice of Indianapolis, Dan Dokich,
host of Don't At Me podcast on OutKick, former college
head coach, played and starred under Bobby Knight at Indiana.
So you send me the text, all right, tell me
why the Pacer is gonna win in six?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Hi?
Speaker 4 (03:54):
DP? Well, I like the Pacers. You know why I
like the Pacers, DP.
Speaker 10 (03:58):
They moved the basketball, they move people, they moved the ball.
They've got a stud late game. I know you have
Reggie on all the time, and I'm glad he's on
the call. Halliburton reminds me of Reggie in a lot
of ways. They look alike. I mean, both slim, slender,
kind of funky jump shots and go in all the time.
But big d the biggest reason he ain't afraid in
(04:20):
the clutch man. It's two clutch dudes, Brunson against Haliburton, Layton.
Halliburton is not afraid. Brunson is not afraid. PACER's got
a good team. Carlisle is a great coach, and they're
just better. There's better team right now.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, the Knicks were pretty impressive this past series, right,
But I think that's a terrific But are you factoring
in the fact that Tatum got hurt and they they
would have Do you think they would have beaten the
Celtics if Tatum was still playing and was helping.
Speaker 10 (04:48):
I do, Okay, I do I think something was off
with the Celtics DP. I do I think something was off.
I think that the Celtics weren't the Celtics of last year.
Look I like the Knicks and last year really doesn't matter.
The Pacers versus the Celticas. I mean, and a Obaby,
the Indianagrad by the way, has become a fantastic four
way player. You know, you want to post up, you
(05:09):
want to rebound, you want to run, you want to
score in half court, you want to score it four.
It doesn't matter. He's just become a really good player.
Him played last year. Hartenstein was very good last year.
I looked for Miles Turn to have a terrific series.
I just think the Pacers are one of those teams
Dan that you know, how you start out and you
go through crap. They were lousy, Halliburton wasn't gardened a
(05:31):
lot of questions. Even Halliburton questioned himself. And then you
come through hard times. And when you come through hard
times and either breaks or makes you and the Pacers
are good man, they are tough, they're resilient. This is
a much better pacer team. I know it's a better
nick team than last year, but it's a better pacer
team than last year too.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
And the other guy isakam this, siakam you.
Speaker 10 (05:53):
My favorite all time player was Bob Love number ten,
Chicago Bullswart my whole life, and he and Bobby Dane
of the Bucks used to face off and that's what
Sea outcome got that fade away the mid range. I
love watching this guy and they're just really good. They're
just really well coached and really good in a much
better team this year than.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Last Tyree's Halliburton's dad allowed back to watch.
Speaker 10 (06:17):
No, but I wish he was I do. I know
what he did was stupid and I created it, but
I wish he was. I mean, okay, you acted like
a dumbass. You took advantage of, you know, the PACER's kindness.
You know, I was saying, no good deed goes unpunished.
Pacers gave him those seats.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
He screwed it up, all right. I wish he was.
Speaker 11 (06:38):
No.
Speaker 10 (06:38):
Apparently, unless there's been a you know, something done without
an announcement. John Halliburton won't be able to watch enough.
All right, let's go. Let's let him back in the
Bill Halliburton. You ever talked to him, I'm sure you have.
He is a great dude.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Like, all right, his dad did what he did.
Speaker 10 (06:55):
Maybe his dad's a pain in the ass, fine, but
Halliburton's a great dude.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Let the dad in to watch the game. Oh why not?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
How does Halliburton get voted most overrated player by the
players in the NBA during the regular season.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Dan, I was told it wasn't by the players.
Speaker 10 (07:11):
I was told it was by somebody each each organization
had a vote. That could be wrong about that. No,
that one was the players. The executive wasn't wasn't the players,
that was.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
You don't know.
Speaker 10 (07:23):
But if you look on that list, a pretty good list, Dan,
I mean, Lebron's on that list.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Giannest is on that list. I mean, you know what I.
Speaker 10 (07:30):
Mean, he's like, that's a that's a pretty good list
to be on. He just happened to be the king,
you know. I like about him. You know, he's like
your guy, Reggie. Reggie, by the way, Reggie kicked my
ass my last college game in the garden UCLA, Indiana
n I T Championship. So I've always admired Reggie and
(07:50):
his ability.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Were you guarding him?
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (07:54):
Night would play me. He was mad at me, and
I would play the second half. We beat Tennessee. Put
me in a second half. I had to guard Johnny Newman,
a longtime pro, against Richmond. Night was mad. I played
a second half, came out against Reggie. We had this
I told you this before. We had this clown assistant
coach named Con Smith who told us to play off Reggie,
playoff Reggie and front Gary Mlonson.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
You didn't even know who Gary Mullanson is.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
You're supposed to let Reggie Miller shoot?
Speaker 10 (08:24):
Yes, yes, bigded, Hey that was And then Night, I
see over there, Knight's taking me out, so I drive it,
try to get follow him out, and I'm standing there
during the timeout and Nancy Knight, Knight's wife is MF
and me my mother can hear it?
Speaker 5 (08:43):
Dan?
Speaker 4 (08:43):
My mother?
Speaker 10 (08:45):
She's like, docis You're the worst MFN leader. And I'm like,
wait a second. Your staff told me to let Reggie
Miller shoot and guard Gary Malonson.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Hey, why didn't Knight say something to you? He's mister defense.
Speaker 10 (09:02):
He I think he had checked out, but it was
you know, it was a championship game of the n T.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
The garden was packed.
Speaker 10 (09:09):
He was UCLA, Indiana, and we're like, now, remember we're
taking away Malanson.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
And I'm like, wait a second.
Speaker 10 (09:18):
I watched Late Night with the Pac twelve or ten,
whatever the hell it was, Pack eight. It was called
I know Reggie Miller's the guy. Anyway, I digress, Sorry
about that.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Touch Knight yelled at me. I had a sit down
one on one with him. Uh So I was at
the garden covering that, and I sat down with him
and I was asking him about the you know, the
n T. I knew he loved the n yeah, and
and and so I'm trying to play to his strengths
a little bit. He thinks I'm criticizing the n T
(09:51):
for some reason, and he says something and then he
gets up and storms out, and I.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Was like, what just happened?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I I thought it was saying something nice, and then
he stormed out of it. And then then all of
a sudden, pr people run in.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Like what happened? What happened?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I go, I have no idea. That probably happened to
you a lot of times where you go, what just happened?
Speaker 5 (10:16):
Here?
Speaker 4 (10:16):
A big d We lost my senior night and to Michigan.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
Gary Grant hit a shot to beat us his first
time night lost senior night and seniors in Indiana. Talked
to the crowd, right, so we're waiting night wouldn't come
out of the locker room. So I got seventeen thousand
people there and I got to start my senior night.
You know, nice not there, So I said, well, I
guess he's not coming. And then after he told us
(10:42):
we're not going to the n T. You guys don't
deserve to play. So uve Bloff you remember Uve.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Blob Yeah, and drafted by Dallas.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (10:51):
We went back to our apartment. We were roommates with
a baseball player. We're like, well season is over, let's
get drunk. So we started drinking beers. Next thing you know,
I get a call about two hours later, Hey, dockets Flop,
get the team in here.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
We're going to the n T.
Speaker 10 (11:10):
Like right, you know, we're twelve beers in a college kids, right,
So that's saying, you know, we're in New York at
nights screaming at you go.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
See, so you got the Pacers going to the NBA Finals.
They're gonna face who.
Speaker 10 (11:27):
Yeah, I'm not going against Okay see, even though I
will say this, man, I like what Anthony Edwards is about.
And here's what I like about Anthony Edwards. He's he's
really riding Rudy Gobert in a good way. Rudy Gobert's
gotten good. I know people criticize Gobert. I'm watching Go
Beart in this series Go Bear. If you watch this,
you'll understand this. As a basketball guy, he's always in
(11:49):
the right spot.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
You know.
Speaker 10 (11:50):
Offensively, he goes opposite the ball. He's not gonna catch
it other than the dunkin. And defensively it's gonna be
huge because Gilga is Alexander.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Push you on an island.
Speaker 10 (11:59):
And he gets going down here, you better be there. Defensively,
I think it's it's gonna be fascinating. But I think, okay, see,
he's just there's much better. They're so good, they're so
tough and d here's a laugh, man. I love the
crowds in these playoffs. Okay see, he's got great crowd
These are great crowds.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Man.
Speaker 10 (12:17):
This is a This is a bunch of fun. But okay,
see he's been so good all year. They just got
too much.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
See the thing is is I watch Ant in college
at Georgia, and I just thought that he was kind
of a highlight.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
And then Shay Gilgess was just another Kentucky player and
the Clippers didn't even know what they had because they
asked for all those first round draft picks for him
with the Paul George deal. Like, it's weird how those
players you get out of a system. Devin Booker didn't
even start at Kentucky and then goes in and averages
twenty eight again, like, how does that happen? Where these
(12:52):
guys are? Do coaches keep them down?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
They?
Speaker 10 (12:56):
Hey, if you look at the dudes in the NBA,
I love, but these guys in the NBA manage Al
Murray was all right, he's.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
A good player at Kentucky.
Speaker 10 (13:05):
I did their Bahamas trip, like Kentucky Seth Greenberg and
I was like three four games in the Bahamas shake guilders.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
Alexander was okay.
Speaker 12 (13:15):
They Dan.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
I did the entire Battle of.
Speaker 10 (13:18):
The Atlantis with Devon uh or excuse me uh or
Davonte Mitch or whatever the hell his name is with
the Cat Yeah, Donovan.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Excuse me. If you have told me.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's the sixteenth pick in the.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Draft, I'd have been like, you're out. I did four
straight games with him.
Speaker 10 (13:36):
He was good. Shake guilders. Alexander was good. He wasn't like, Oh, man, hey, Dan,
this guy's gonna be the m v P now you know, hang.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
On here, No way, no, no.
Speaker 10 (13:47):
In fact, on those teams, as you mentioned, uh, the
best player on Kentucky then was Tyler Eulis, the little
point guard. He was the guy everybody was talking about.
But to your point, I don't know if coaches keep
them down, man, but I know this. Those dudes at Kentucky,
they get in the NBA and next thing you know,
(14:08):
holy holy.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Hell, next thing you know, they're making fifty million dollars a.
Speaker 10 (14:13):
Year and MVPs and commercials and everything else. It's it's
good to be a player from cal to get in
the NBA, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Good luck with your pacers. Good to talk to you again.

show bet update going on.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
Well, there is a New York Times deep dive article
on Bill Belichick and his girlfriend in UNC football, and
in there they suggest not report, but suggest that Bill
Belichick's girlfriend Jordan, has told people that they're already engaged.
Now we're not reporting that, but the New York Times
has mixed reports about it. Now, I think we had
(16:27):
a show bet about a month and a half ago.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Is this does he get engaged? I think it was married,
married or back to the NFL.
Speaker 7 (16:38):
See, this is the problem with my note taking system.
I'm trying to fix. I have eleven to fifty, which
is the time that we did the bet Bill Belichick marriage.
I didn't write the date down, Okay, so we did
at some point, at some eleven fifty in the recent
couple of months, we did make a bet eleven fifty
(16:59):
am Eastern Standard time.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Do you know the language?
Speaker 7 (17:02):
No, that's all I All I wrote is Bill Belichick marriage,
and it's on It's a bet, though, because that's what
I put on this thing, Paulie, do you have the language?
Speaker 9 (17:12):
I'm pretty sure I remember I went with married, and
the other four guys, other four of you guys went
not getting married. That's what I remember.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
But wait, he's getting what's the timeframe of he gets
married or he doesn't get married, or he gets married,
or he leaves North Carolina checking gets married, or goes
to the NFL.
Speaker 7 (17:32):
The one thing that Paul remembers from the bet is
that he was right and we were all wrong.
Speaker 9 (17:36):
I do remember saying. I only know that I said
he'd be married. I don't know if anyone else did.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Okay, well, I don't know what what else were we
betting on that? What time frame was he?
Speaker 8 (17:49):
Was?
Speaker 2 (17:50):
It just a blanket? Will he get married or not
get married to her? And just because you're engaged, doesn't
mean you're getting married. I have to believe that Bill's
family they're gonna be like, nope, Nope, nope, because they're
probably gonna get wiped out of the will. This may
be one of those no, we're not gonna let this
(18:12):
happen here.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
I definitely would have said that Bill is not getting
married because I think I'm giving him. I was showing
him too much respect, maybe giving him a little too
much credit.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
But it's still.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
He's in love. You could do stupid things. Mind, Yes,
yes he is.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
But then I didn't see the Michael Strahan interview, but
I did see reaction from Christopher mad Dog Russo where Look,
it's he didn't interview with straighthand because he knows Michael,
and it's going to be friendly fire. I mean, that's
what happens. Bill Belichick's not coming on this show. The
NFL commissioner doesn't come on this show. I mean, there's
(18:48):
a reason. I get it. Yeah, I take pride in that.
Hopefully we asked the right questions, you know, and Michael
Strahan probably had a list of questions he wanted to ask.
They probably told him, here's some questions that you wink wink.
Probably want to ask, I don't think that Michael Strahan
is going to be pressing Bill Belichick. Just don't think
(19:10):
that would happen. But I you know, he's kind of
put in that situation. This is what happens. Hey, Michael,
you know coach Belichick. Yeah, well, why don't you reach
out and then you know, have him do an interview
for Good Morning America.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
That's how this works. We would do Sunday conversations at
the Mothership. It'd be like, hey, you have a relationship
with Mark McGuire, Yes, I do.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Why don't you.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
See if you can meet him in Cleveland and we'll
do a Sunday conversation next thing. You know, that's what
you're doing. But I mean, I think they're in a
pr correction mode there to get her moved to the side.
Do I think that she had more power, was more involved? Well, yes,
(20:00):
I do. Once again, I did have somebody who worked
with them on a project and he said it was
we had to pull the plug on. It was too
difficult because she got in the way. She had to
have everything go through her, and Bill just kind of
let her be in charge. You can't have her running
(20:21):
a football program you can't be involved in, you know,
on the field or on the sidelines or now. He
says that she's not, But I mean maybe she's been
a good influence on him in other ways, maybe in business.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
I mean I want to at least be fair to
the situation here with Bill, a guy who was always
in control who's now not in control. And if I'm
a member of his family, I'm like, Dad, what's going
on here?
Speaker 12 (20:52):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Let us understand what's going on here? Everything you build
up and then all of a sudden you meet somebody
and next thing you know, you're going to get married
or get engaged. So it might be some scrambling of
the jets here being territorial of hold on here. It's
not changed the will anytime soon. You don't think she's
running strategy, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 7 (21:15):
Managing the clock coach, coach, time out call, the time out,
two minute drill.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
We gotta get vertical here at it.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
She could be the person, the get back person who's
you know, his He's got his headset on and then
she's got the h that cord that connects it, holding
on to it, wearing her powder Blue, Carolina Blue on
the sidelines there.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Oh god, man, I've been around.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
No, it's just like you you think you've seen everything,
and I mean I I.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
I can't quit this anytime soon.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:57):
Like the Manti Taoe story, I'm like, well, that's as
wild as it's going to get. And then that Belichick
story is different. But you're like, this would never happen.
If someone told you five years ago this would be
a storyline, You're like, no, not a chance.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Well even five years ago, if they said, you know,
Bill's basically not going to get a job. He'll get
fired by the Patriots and he's going to go to
North Carolina, he'd be like, that ain't happening. And then
he gets fired and then he goes to Carolina and
he's not getting back in the NFL. If anything, this
would make a team more apprehensive to bring him back,
(22:32):
because you got to bring her into.
Speaker 11 (22:36):
What do we do?
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Yes?
Speaker 9 (22:37):
Paul Bill Belichick's book The Art of Winning, debuted at
number five in a New York Times bestsellers list last week.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
A great I'm happy for him. Is anybody talking about
what's in the book. By the way, it doesn't feel
like anybody's talking about his art of winning winning, it's
about her and everything that surrounds. It's I'm like, hey, Bill,
give me the top ten reasons why you're the greatest
(23:05):
coach of all time. It's how involved is she in
the North Carolina program? Are you guys engaged?
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Marvin, do you think.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
That book is as boring as his press conferences? Like
he's talking about the art of what, Like there's nothing. Okay,
I put Lawrence Taylor out there. Okay, me too.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
I don't know if he's dishing any real great stories.
I'm gonna guess he's not.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Like, I don't think he's saying, oh, you know, there
was a time when Lawrence Taylor stayed out all night
and then showed up at Phil Simms house and the
morning he hadn't slept and he wanted to borrow Phil's
golf clubs and he was still playing for the New
York Giants. Like, Okay, that's kind of interesting. I don't
think you have too many of those stories there.
Speaker 9 (23:51):
Yes, imagine if Belichick voiced the audio book, ohel was
a great player? Can we turn it up with Mike.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Rabel And then we were down twenty eight to three,
and I said to Tom, let's go get him.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
That was my favorite moment of I don't know if
it was a football life or one of those things
at NFL Network would do. But he's sailing out on
his boat. Yeah you know, twenty nine billion rings whatever
he calls it, and he's like, uh, he's sailing out,
and he has a smile and says, now.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
This is what I call fun.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Could make it up.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Now, this is what I call fun.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
If you google Steven Wright, the comedian and his stand
up routine. If Bill Belichick was a comedian, that's what
he would sound like.
Speaker 8 (24:45):
I bought some batteries, but they weren't included.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
So I had to buy him again.
Speaker 8 (24:49):
Yes, Marvin, all those pages in that book, and he
still didn't tell us why he didn't play Malcolm Butler
in the Super Bowl. Yeah yeah, like, I don't care
about your life lessons from west Lean.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
But the fact that he was the most excited I
think I've ever seen him or heard him is when
he was explaining the deflate gate that that was right
up his alley, that all of a sudden, there is chemistry,
there's math, there's oh, there's trigonometry. There's all of this
and he is just he can't wait to tell you
about that. And yeah, I haven't seen the book. It
(25:27):
wasn't sent to us. Normally we get books sent to
us and they said, would you like to have the
author on We didn't get that book. I don't think
we got an opportunity to interview Bill Belichick? Did we, ton,
I don't think we did.
Speaker 5 (25:39):
We do not.
Speaker 6 (25:40):
We asked for him for sure.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Of course, no response, no response.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Okay, yeah, you know at this point, like I'm not
interested in it. I'm interested in everything but what he
wants to sell me, you know, It's that's what really interesting.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Yeah, see, I.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
Am really interested in how North Carolina goes though. I'm
really interested to see how he does with that team,
and if you know, is he gonna last another year?
Is he gonna make it through this year? Is it
gonna be awesome? Is it going to be terrible? I'm
so curious to see how he does there.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Did the book just come in?
Speaker 9 (26:20):
We have a copy of the book. One of the
brg's had a copy. I think he actually purchased it.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Yeah, because I didn't get a copy sent to me.
Speaker 9 (26:27):
The Art of Winning Lessons from my life of football
and on the cover from Tom Brady, coach Belichick brought
out the best of me his book will do the
same for you.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Thank you, Tom Same. It's the instruction video for you.
Speaker 9 (26:43):
Amongst the people who pop up his book in the
back Roger Goodell, Michael Jordan, Nick Saban, and Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
But she's in the acknowledgments. I believe if you check that.
I don't know if it's his rock or his I
think there's something in there. And the acknowledgments with his girlfriend.
Speaker 9 (27:06):
The three page epilogue of A now thank you, So
I'd have to go through.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Okay, A guess I'm not.
Speaker 9 (27:13):
The first person thanked other than his literary team. Belichick
does three pages of acknowledgments in this book.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (27:20):
The first group thanked is the literary team of Inkwell Management,
Simon and Schusher, the book publishing people. The next person
thanked of everyone on earth. Thank you to my d
mL and creative mus Jordan Hudson. And then they go on.
Speaker 14 (27:33):

Speaker 5 (27:46):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Look, I love love. I'm happy if it makes him happy.
Speaker 5 (27:54):
That's a wild scene Man.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
North Carolina is definitely team Jordan, Yes, Jorddawn Jordan or
Jordan Jordaan.
Speaker 5 (28:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
They need to have a jumpman jump jump person with her,
maybe a cheerleading pose and have that on the uniform
Carolina Blue, Great uniforms, Great uniforms.
Speaker 9 (28:18):
Oh, I'm checking for your name, and the acknowledgement freezing through.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
It won't be there once again.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
The only conversation I had with him was I was
around the conversation with him. He didn't acknowledge me when
he settle over to Rodney Harrison and Tony Dungeye when
we were we were at the Meadowlands for a Jets
game and against the Patriots, and I remember he came
out and then he said Rondy and then walked by
me and he goes my coach going on. I think
(28:50):
Rodney goes, did he say anything to it, and goes, Nope,
No he didn't, No, he didn't.
Speaker 8 (28:54):
Yeah, Mark, that's going to be yes tonight when there's
gonna be tons of people because when you walk in
yeah like royalty, Oh Dan, Oh, I grew up watching
you walk right past us. I don't know who these
other idiots are.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
Yeah, accurate.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
It could be, could be, And then then there's gonna
be a couple of people that I don't want to see,
get a couple of pops in them, and then they're
gonna want to come over. I want to chat. Remember
this one guy did not want to see a couple
of years ago, he had like George Washington teeth and uh,
I just remember when he came over and uh, he
(29:29):
wanted to be my friend, and I'm like, I don't.
I don't think we're we're friends. Yeah, that was that
was not good. No, I'm good.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
I'm good.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I tell my family all about you.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
I go great.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
I told my family all about you too.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
Yes, Paul, I'm skimming through coach Belichick's book and there's
not one photograph in the book of like as a
child with his father at a football field.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Are there diagrams? No?
Speaker 9 (29:59):
I see no l rations whatsoever of any type, and
no photos.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
No, that's not my kind of book.
Speaker 9 (30:04):
Yeah, you think there'd be some of him at a
Navy football game as a child or something like that.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Let's see Nathan and san Antonio. Hi, Nate, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 12 (30:15):
Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 15 (30:17):
This Bill Belichick.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Thing as wow, heading nod to Marvin.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Then I got.
Speaker 15 (30:23):
Two questions for you. Two NBA questions. First one, with
these new teams that are now poised to win the championship,
is the old way we think of the NBA as
you got to take your lumps, only veteran teams win.
Is that out or is this just kind of a
one off year? And second question, if you are Steph
(30:45):
Curry and you look at your effect on the league
and how the game looks now, are you proud of
your legacy?
Speaker 2 (30:56):
I would be proud of myself just because I'm the
best shooter in history. You're not, but that's up to
you and others to tell you that you're not. Steph
Curry just said, Hey, if you do it really, really,
really well, this is what it looks like for the
rest of you. Don't follow my lead here, but yeah,
(31:18):
I would be proud of my legacy that he changed
the game. What was the all I the NBA has changed?
You know when we talk about all you've got to
lose to learn how to win.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I think it used to be that way.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
I just don't know with these younger players now what
resonates with them I don't know that. And they're getting
into the league at such a young age. Now, you know,
you're eighteen or nineteen or twenty. I mean Larry Bird
was probably twenty five when he went into the NBA.
You know, you get in these guys are grown men.
(31:57):
You're already getting money, nil money, you know, your business man.
So it's just different. I don't know what resonates.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
You know.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
Back in the day, they played every game. They wanted
to play every game. Now they're like, why do I
need to play every game?
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I got it.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I understand. It's a whole different mindset. Jeremy in Indianapolis, Hi, Jeremy,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (32:19):
Hey Dan, Dan, that's good luck to you guys tonight.
We're all pulling for you. I miss you guy. Yesterday
I wanted to get in and tell my best and
worse of the weekend. The best of the weekend was
being able to go with my wife to any five
hundred qualifying, got to tackle on with my buddy and
his girlfriend. We got party deck tickets, all stuff that
was awesome. Made our way down to Pitt Road after that,
(32:41):
and that's sort of where the worst of the weekend
comes in. Sitting there, and all of a sudden, I
see this lot of people walking down Pitt Road and
I'm like, man, who is You's got to be somebody important,
And all of a sudden, everything goes quiet. Trumpets start
going off in my head, everything goes blurry except for him.
It's Jeff Gordon. It's my idol growing up. It's my
(33:03):
favorite driver. I look at my wife. She goes, hey,
run down there. You got right. I'm wearing his inaugural
Brickyard four hundred T shirt from nineteen ninety four. I
run down there. I'm like, man, I hope I can
get him to sign it, get a picture of anything.
He's standing there with a couple of kids, does some
autographs and kind of walks away, and I look at
my life and I'm like, man, I don't think this
is gonna happen. And she kind of gives me the
(33:24):
sign like hey, keep trying, keep trying. And he starts
walking back into the public area and I'm like, okay,
that's my shot. So I run get about ten feet
from him, and he's about ready to get on a
golf cart. I got all these things rattling in my head,
and all of a sudden. The only thing that came
out was, Hey, Jeff, you like my shirt? He goes,
without missing a beat, he goes, yep, love the shirt
(33:46):
and drives off. So I just didn't know if that
ever happened to you guys where you kind of see
your idol and you just kind of end up fumbling
the bag and you don't know what to say.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
You hung in there, and I credit your wife for
kind of urge you to go out there say something.
He acknowledged you. Okay, he didn't sign, didn't get a picture.
I mean, that's what I probably would have done it
snap a picture at least, you know, show the proximity.
But yeah, I remember meeting I didn't meet Pete Marovitch,
(34:15):
but I remember watching a game in Cincinnati. He came
out and there was a mob, was boy band mob,
and people were grabbing at Pete. My friend grabbed some
of his hair. He did sign my program, but you
don't even know what he wrote down. He was writing
down pistol. He wrote down pistol. But I remember seeing
(34:35):
my friend as Pete got in a Cadillac Eldorado and
left Balt Bellamy was with him, big Man and Zekee Campbell.
My friend had Pete's hair in his hand. He goes,
I grabbed his hair, like in a moment he's walking out,
he grabs Pete's hair. I think I had that autograph somewhere,
(35:00):
all of those autographs from the seventies and back then,
penmanship was really important, like Jerry West penmanship, Johnny Bench penmanship,
Pete Rose penmanship, Gordy Howe's penmanship, like it was really important. Nowadays,
when you see autographs, you go, who is that? Well,
it's such and such. Back then, when you got an autograph,
(35:22):
they felt like they were in a cursive class. You know,
they were getting graded on this. I have a puck
from Gordi Howe. It is the finest penmanship I think
I've ever come across.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
And that's a guy.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Who's got his hands probably mangled from playing, you know,
thirty five years in professional hockey. All right, Well, take
a break, last call for phone calls. What we learned,
what's in store for tomorrow, all of that coming up.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Wayne Gretzky will join us on the pro Graham tomorrow well,
recap what happened at the NFL Owners meetings as well,
and of course recapping the big night.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
The Sports Emmys. Ah, there's pressure on us, and there's
nothing we could do about it. I feel pressure. You
don't feel pressure, Paul.
Speaker 9 (36:22):
Uh pressure. No, there's nothing we could do about it.
I know it's a random group of judges and you
don't know what they like.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
I know, I know.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
We're running out of time, though.
Speaker 9 (36:35):
Well we're gear. I'm not gonna say that word. No,
we are likely to get one the year after. I
don't want that one, I know, But I'm just saying,
if I was analyzing this, you're you have like about
an eighty percent chance we have the year after you
retire in this show ends.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Yeah, I don't want one, right, I don't want that.
We'll take it show posthumously, not life postume.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Right.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Yeah, I don't want that.
Speaker 12 (36:59):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Either we get it during the timeframe of doing this.
Speaker 9 (37:03):
Or we don't get it, we'll take our name out
of the running.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
No, I know. I know a couple of shows that
have done that and they're not winning. So when you
say I don't want. I don't want to be up
for that award. Don't wear you weren't, but they tell
you that. It's kind of a preemptive strike there. Everybody's
got their outfits for tonight. It's supposed to be sort
(37:29):
of is it formal?
Speaker 9 (37:32):
No business dress?
Speaker 3 (37:34):
Business dress? Is that country club?
Speaker 9 (37:37):
You should wear a sport code on a sport code day.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
Yeah, See, don't show up in a polo shirt. Well
Paulie did for Family Feud.
Speaker 5 (37:46):
Well that it was nice.
Speaker 7 (37:47):
I don't know if that was a polo shirt either,
but I don't most people there have like a suit
and tie on tonight.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
I'm not gonna wear a tie.
Speaker 9 (37:56):
I'm gonna wear a tie.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
I'm wearing a tie.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
I re tired that.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Nicely.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
I wore a tie for how many years? You know,
I'm done with that. Maybe maybe a turtleneck a dicky.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Yeah, he's like that. It was so weird growing up
and be like, is that a turtleneck? No, it's a dicky.
So it was just it was meant to look like
a turtleneck, but it.
Speaker 9 (38:24):
Was just it went about your chest plate like a swear.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Yeah, the top part of it like a clip on tie.
Speaker 9 (38:29):
Turtle what was the rush in the seventies. Like, I
can't commit to a sweater underneath this.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
I have no idea.
Speaker 7 (38:35):
I like to look on the neck, but I just
don't want to be hot underneath.
Speaker 5 (38:39):
Like it's a little too much sleeve for me.
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Yes, Todd, I considered a tie, but then I tried
on my shirt and realized that I could not close
the top button was strangling my neck. So the decision
was made for me when I was like, Nope, it's
not happening.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Or maybe you get a new shirt, or there's another option.
Speaker 6 (38:56):
You can drop a few LB's and all of a
sudden the neckline gets.
Speaker 3 (38:59):
A little l could get a bigger, bigger shirt. You
could do that.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
I thought the shirt I had was plenty of bit.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Well, you did wear a bright yellow like a Savannah
Banana's tight shirt on the family.
Speaker 6 (39:14):
Shoas we love the owner of that team.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
Yeah he's dressed like Carrious George.
Speaker 5 (39:23):
Shirt.
Speaker 11 (39:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
I was the only one who wore a sport coat
on a family feud. Marvin wore a some kind of
bomber jacket or something.
Speaker 8 (39:31):
Light bomber jacket.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (39:33):
Yeah, ties are on my thing either. Yeah, I wore
them growing up, No, thank you.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
John in Hilton Head, Hi, John.
Speaker 12 (39:41):
Danny, how are you doing, Buddy? Dan AT's first time?
Long time. I know you guys are always trying to
spruce up the show. Before I get into my Brett
fire conversation. Long time season ticket holder, But before I
do that, just a recommendation, that's all. Don't don't beat
me down now, but I'm going to suggest that maybe
we add some uptem to the intro. So, Hi, this
(40:03):
is John six foot one point eight twenty two reps.
You could add right right.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Well, what we what are we benching? Are you mentioned
five twenty two times?
Speaker 4 (40:15):
Yeah? That's right.
Speaker 12 (40:16):
I mean a rep is a combine line.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
I need I need a video. I need a video
of that, John, all.
Speaker 12 (40:23):
Right, before you added I'll send you a video. But
you could add vertical. You could add you know, forty,
you could I mean, you could add anything, just to
give people an idea on what your makeup is. But anyway,
let's go to Brett Barr. Sixty three years my family's
had season tickets. I'll tell you that the real key
with Brett versus Aaron Brett was a guy. And I'm
(40:44):
not just saying this Brett was a guy you could
have a beer with.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
He did.
Speaker 12 (40:48):
He was from Mississippi, but he did the hunting, the fishing.
He dressed in camo. I mean Brett was one of us.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Well, that may have been part of the problem that
you could have a beer with, but yeah, I mean
we got that feeling when we were in Green Bay,
the people that we spoke to.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Todd, what did you learn today?
Speaker 11 (41:09):

But that's crap, right seat O'Connor, Look at us now
the six times at charm.
Speaker 9 (02:16):
Okay, there's your acceptance speech of limericks.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Though.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, I'm told to keep it to thirty seconds or less.
I don't know. I mean we've waited a long time. Yeah,
should give us a little more than that, maybe sixty seconds.
Speaker 9 (02:35):
Yes, are there any must thanks tonight? M of course
everyone we want to thank with us.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I don't think you can get thirty seconds and thank
everybody you're supposed to think. I can thank them after.
I don't need to thank them when I'm on stage.
You know, tomorrow's show. We just thank everybody who's had
anything to do with the success of this show, which
is not a lot of people, but you know there's
some that we would give a shout out to. All right,
(03:03):
we'll get to phone calls. Give me the poll question
for the final hour. If you can't see, no count.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Yeah, we've updated it with several options.
Speaker 7 (03:10):
Okay, all right, I'll tell you some of the new
ones more disliked former Packers quarterback Brett Farv or Aaron Rodgers.
Right now, Aaron Rodgers is sixty seven percent of that vote.
And then we also put up there from Marvin whose
career would you want? Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers? And
right now Brett Farv has most of that vote.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
All right, I got a text last night from the
Voice of Indianapolis, the self proclaimed voice of Indianapolis, Dan Dokich,
host of Don't At Me podcast on OutKick, former college
head coach, played and starred under Bobby Knight at Indiana.
So you send me the text, all right, tell me
why the Pacer is gonna win in six?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Hi?
Speaker 4 (03:54):
DP? Well, I like the Pacers. You know why I
like the Pacers, DP.
Speaker 10 (03:58):
They moved the basketball, they move people, they moved the ball.
They've got a stud late game. I know you have
Reggie on all the time, and I'm glad he's on
the call. Halliburton reminds me of Reggie in a lot
of ways. They look alike. I mean, both slim, slender,
kind of funky jump shots and go in all the time.
But big d the biggest reason he ain't afraid in
(04:20):
the clutch man. It's two clutch dudes, Brunson against Haliburton, Layton.
Halliburton is not afraid. Brunson is not afraid. PACER's got
a good team. Carlisle is a great coach, and they're
just better. There's better team right now.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, the Knicks were pretty impressive this past series, right,
But I think that's a terrific But are you factoring
in the fact that Tatum got hurt and they they
would have Do you think they would have beaten the
Celtics if Tatum was still playing and was helping.
Speaker 10 (04:48):
I do, Okay, I do I think something was off
with the Celtics DP. I do I think something was off.
I think that the Celtics weren't the Celtics of last year.
Look I like the Knicks and last year really doesn't matter.
The Pacers versus the Celticas. I mean, and a Obaby,
the Indianagrad by the way, has become a fantastic four
way player. You know, you want to post up, you
(05:09):
want to rebound, you want to run, you want to
score in half court, you want to score it four.
It doesn't matter. He's just become a really good player.
Him played last year. Hartenstein was very good last year.
I looked for Miles Turn to have a terrific series.
I just think the Pacers are one of those teams
Dan that you know, how you start out and you
go through crap. They were lousy, Halliburton wasn't gardened a
(05:31):
lot of questions. Even Halliburton questioned himself. And then you
come through hard times. And when you come through hard
times and either breaks or makes you and the Pacers
are good man, they are tough, they're resilient. This is
a much better pacer team. I know it's a better
nick team than last year, but it's a better pacer
team than last year too.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
And the other guy isakam this, siakam you.
Speaker 10 (05:53):
My favorite all time player was Bob Love number ten,
Chicago Bullswart my whole life, and he and Bobby Dane
of the Bucks used to face off and that's what
Sea outcome got that fade away the mid range. I
love watching this guy and they're just really good. They're
just really well coached and really good in a much
better team this year than.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Last Tyree's Halliburton's dad allowed back to watch.
Speaker 10 (06:17):
No, but I wish he was I do. I know
what he did was stupid and I created it, but
I wish he was. I mean, okay, you acted like
a dumbass. You took advantage of, you know, the PACER's kindness.
You know, I was saying, no good deed goes unpunished.
Pacers gave him those seats.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
He screwed it up, all right. I wish he was.
Speaker 11 (06:38):
No.
Speaker 10 (06:38):
Apparently, unless there's been a you know, something done without
an announcement. John Halliburton won't be able to watch enough.
All right, let's go. Let's let him back in the
Bill Halliburton. You ever talked to him, I'm sure you have.
He is a great dude.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Like, all right, his dad did what he did.
Speaker 10 (06:55):
Maybe his dad's a pain in the ass, fine, but
Halliburton's a great dude.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Let the dad in to watch the game. Oh why not?
Speaker 3 (07:02):
How does Halliburton get voted most overrated player by the
players in the NBA during the regular season.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Dan, I was told it wasn't by the players.
Speaker 10 (07:11):
I was told it was by somebody each each organization
had a vote. That could be wrong about that. No,
that one was the players. The executive wasn't wasn't the players,
that was.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
You don't know.
Speaker 10 (07:23):
But if you look on that list, a pretty good list, Dan,
I mean, Lebron's on that list.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Giannest is on that list. I mean, you know what I.
Speaker 10 (07:30):
Mean, he's like, that's a that's a pretty good list
to be on. He just happened to be the king,
you know. I like about him. You know, he's like
your guy, Reggie. Reggie, by the way, Reggie kicked my
ass my last college game in the garden UCLA, Indiana
n I T Championship. So I've always admired Reggie and
(07:50):
his ability.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Were you guarding him?
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (07:54):
Night would play me. He was mad at me, and
I would play the second half. We beat Tennessee. Put
me in a second half. I had to guard Johnny Newman,
a longtime pro, against Richmond. Night was mad. I played
a second half, came out against Reggie. We had this
I told you this before. We had this clown assistant
coach named Con Smith who told us to play off Reggie,
playoff Reggie and front Gary Mlonson.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
You didn't even know who Gary Mullanson is.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
You're supposed to let Reggie Miller shoot?
Speaker 10 (08:24):
Yes, yes, bigded, Hey that was And then Night, I
see over there, Knight's taking me out, so I drive it,
try to get follow him out, and I'm standing there
during the timeout and Nancy Knight, Knight's wife is MF
and me my mother can hear it?
Speaker 5 (08:43):
Dan?
Speaker 4 (08:43):
My mother?
Speaker 10 (08:45):
She's like, docis You're the worst MFN leader. And I'm like,
wait a second. Your staff told me to let Reggie
Miller shoot and guard Gary Malonson.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Hey, why didn't Knight say something to you? He's mister defense.
Speaker 10 (09:02):
He I think he had checked out, but it was
you know, it was a championship game of the n T.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
The garden was packed.
Speaker 10 (09:09):
He was UCLA, Indiana, and we're like, now, remember we're
taking away Malanson.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
And I'm like, wait a second.
Speaker 10 (09:18):
I watched Late Night with the Pac twelve or ten,
whatever the hell it was, Pack eight. It was called
I know Reggie Miller's the guy. Anyway, I digress, Sorry
about that.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Touch Knight yelled at me. I had a sit down
one on one with him. Uh So I was at
the garden covering that, and I sat down with him
and I was asking him about the you know, the
n T. I knew he loved the n yeah, and
and and so I'm trying to play to his strengths
a little bit. He thinks I'm criticizing the n T
(09:51):
for some reason, and he says something and then he
gets up and storms out, and I.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Was like, what just happened?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I I thought it was saying something nice, and then
he stormed out of it. And then then all of
a sudden, pr people run in.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Like what happened? What happened?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I go, I have no idea. That probably happened to
you a lot of times where you go, what just happened?
Speaker 5 (10:16):
Here?
Speaker 4 (10:16):
A big d We lost my senior night and to Michigan.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
Gary Grant hit a shot to beat us his first
time night lost senior night and seniors in Indiana. Talked
to the crowd, right, so we're waiting night wouldn't come
out of the locker room. So I got seventeen thousand
people there and I got to start my senior night.
You know, nice not there, So I said, well, I
guess he's not coming. And then after he told us
(10:42):
we're not going to the n T. You guys don't
deserve to play. So uve Bloff you remember Uve.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Blob Yeah, and drafted by Dallas.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (10:51):
We went back to our apartment. We were roommates with
a baseball player. We're like, well season is over, let's
get drunk. So we started drinking beers. Next thing you know,
I get a call about two hours later, Hey, dockets Flop,
get the team in here.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
We're going to the n T.
Speaker 10 (11:10):
Like right, you know, we're twelve beers in a college kids, right,
So that's saying, you know, we're in New York at
nights screaming at you go.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
See, so you got the Pacers going to the NBA Finals.
They're gonna face who.
Speaker 10 (11:27):
Yeah, I'm not going against Okay see, even though I
will say this, man, I like what Anthony Edwards is about.
And here's what I like about Anthony Edwards. He's he's
really riding Rudy Gobert in a good way. Rudy Gobert's
gotten good. I know people criticize Gobert. I'm watching Go
Beart in this series Go Bear. If you watch this,
you'll understand this. As a basketball guy, he's always in
(11:49):
the right spot.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
You know.
Speaker 10 (11:50):
Offensively, he goes opposite the ball. He's not gonna catch
it other than the dunkin. And defensively it's gonna be
huge because Gilga is Alexander.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Push you on an island.
Speaker 10 (11:59):
And he gets going down here, you better be there. Defensively,
I think it's it's gonna be fascinating. But I think, okay, see,
he's just there's much better. They're so good, they're so
tough and d here's a laugh, man. I love the
crowds in these playoffs. Okay see, he's got great crowd
These are great crowds.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Man.
Speaker 10 (12:17):
This is a This is a bunch of fun. But okay,
see he's been so good all year. They just got
too much.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
See the thing is is I watch Ant in college
at Georgia, and I just thought that he was kind
of a highlight.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
And then Shay Gilgess was just another Kentucky player and
the Clippers didn't even know what they had because they
asked for all those first round draft picks for him
with the Paul George deal. Like, it's weird how those
players you get out of a system. Devin Booker didn't
even start at Kentucky and then goes in and averages
twenty eight again, like, how does that happen? Where these
(12:52):
guys are? Do coaches keep them down?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
They?
Speaker 10 (12:56):
Hey, if you look at the dudes in the NBA,
I love, but these guys in the NBA manage Al
Murray was all right, he's.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
A good player at Kentucky.
Speaker 10 (13:05):
I did their Bahamas trip, like Kentucky Seth Greenberg and
I was like three four games in the Bahamas shake guilders.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
Alexander was okay.
Speaker 12 (13:15):
They Dan.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
I did the entire Battle of.
Speaker 10 (13:18):
The Atlantis with Devon uh or excuse me uh or
Davonte Mitch or whatever the hell his name is with
the Cat Yeah, Donovan.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Excuse me. If you have told me.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's the sixteenth pick in the.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Draft, I'd have been like, you're out. I did four
straight games with him.
Speaker 10 (13:36):
He was good. Shake guilders. Alexander was good. He wasn't like, Oh, man, hey, Dan,
this guy's gonna be the m v P now you know, hang.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
On here, No way, no, no.
Speaker 10 (13:47):
In fact, on those teams, as you mentioned, uh, the
best player on Kentucky then was Tyler Eulis, the little
point guard. He was the guy everybody was talking about.
But to your point, I don't know if coaches keep
them down, man, but I know this. Those dudes at Kentucky,
they get in the NBA and next thing you know,
(14:08):
holy holy.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Hell, next thing you know, they're making fifty million dollars a.
Speaker 10 (14:13):
Year and MVPs and commercials and everything else. It's it's
good to be a player from cal to get in
the NBA, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Good luck with your pacers. Good to talk to you again.

show bet update going on.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
Well, there is a New York Times deep dive article
on Bill Belichick and his girlfriend in UNC football, and
in there they suggest not report, but suggest that Bill
Belichick's girlfriend Jordan, has told people that they're already engaged.
Now we're not reporting that, but the New York Times
has mixed reports about it. Now, I think we had
(16:27):
a show bet about a month and a half ago.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Is this does he get engaged? I think it was married,
married or back to the NFL.
Speaker 7 (16:38):
See, this is the problem with my note taking system.
I'm trying to fix. I have eleven to fifty, which
is the time that we did the bet Bill Belichick marriage.
I didn't write the date down, Okay, so we did
at some point, at some eleven fifty in the recent
couple of months, we did make a bet eleven fifty
(16:59):
am Eastern Standard time.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Do you know the language?
Speaker 7 (17:02):
No, that's all I All I wrote is Bill Belichick marriage,
and it's on It's a bet, though, because that's what
I put on this thing, Paulie, do you have the language?
Speaker 9 (17:12):
I'm pretty sure I remember I went with married, and
the other four guys, other four of you guys went
not getting married. That's what I remember.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
But wait, he's getting what's the timeframe of he gets
married or he doesn't get married, or he gets married,
or he leaves North Carolina checking gets married, or goes
to the NFL.
Speaker 7 (17:32):
The one thing that Paul remembers from the bet is
that he was right and we were all wrong.
Speaker 9 (17:36):
I do remember saying. I only know that I said
he'd be married. I don't know if anyone else did.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Okay, well, I don't know what what else were we
betting on that? What time frame was he?
Speaker 8 (17:49):
Was?
Speaker 2 (17:50):
It just a blanket? Will he get married or not
get married to her? And just because you're engaged, doesn't
mean you're getting married. I have to believe that Bill's
family they're gonna be like, nope, Nope, nope, because they're
probably gonna get wiped out of the will. This may
be one of those no, we're not gonna let this
(18:12):
happen here.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
I definitely would have said that Bill is not getting
married because I think I'm giving him. I was showing
him too much respect, maybe giving him a little too
much credit.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
But it's still.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
He's in love. You could do stupid things. Mind, Yes,
yes he is.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
But then I didn't see the Michael Strahan interview, but
I did see reaction from Christopher mad Dog Russo where Look,
it's he didn't interview with straighthand because he knows Michael,
and it's going to be friendly fire. I mean, that's
what happens. Bill Belichick's not coming on this show. The
NFL commissioner doesn't come on this show. I mean, there's
(18:48):
a reason. I get it. Yeah, I take pride in that.
Hopefully we asked the right questions, you know, and Michael
Strahan probably had a list of questions he wanted to ask.
They probably told him, here's some questions that you wink wink.
Probably want to ask, I don't think that Michael Strahan
is going to be pressing Bill Belichick. Just don't think
(19:10):
that would happen. But I you know, he's kind of
put in that situation. This is what happens. Hey, Michael,
you know coach Belichick. Yeah, well, why don't you reach
out and then you know, have him do an interview
for Good Morning America.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
That's how this works. We would do Sunday conversations at
the Mothership. It'd be like, hey, you have a relationship
with Mark McGuire, Yes, I do.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Why don't you.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
See if you can meet him in Cleveland and we'll
do a Sunday conversation next thing. You know, that's what
you're doing. But I mean, I think they're in a
pr correction mode there to get her moved to the side.
Do I think that she had more power, was more involved? Well, yes,
(20:00):
I do. Once again, I did have somebody who worked
with them on a project and he said it was
we had to pull the plug on. It was too
difficult because she got in the way. She had to
have everything go through her, and Bill just kind of
let her be in charge. You can't have her running
(20:21):
a football program you can't be involved in, you know,
on the field or on the sidelines or now. He
says that she's not, But I mean maybe she's been
a good influence on him in other ways, maybe in business.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
I mean I want to at least be fair to
the situation here with Bill, a guy who was always
in control who's now not in control. And if I'm
a member of his family, I'm like, Dad, what's going
on here?
Speaker 12 (20:52):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Let us understand what's going on here? Everything you build
up and then all of a sudden you meet somebody
and next thing you know, you're going to get married
or get engaged. So it might be some scrambling of
the jets here being territorial of hold on here. It's
not changed the will anytime soon. You don't think she's
running strategy, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 7 (21:15):
Managing the clock coach, coach, time out call, the time out,
two minute drill.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
We gotta get vertical here at it.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
She could be the person, the get back person who's
you know, his He's got his headset on and then
she's got the h that cord that connects it, holding
on to it, wearing her powder Blue, Carolina Blue on
the sidelines there.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Oh god, man, I've been around.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
No, it's just like you you think you've seen everything,
and I mean I I.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
I can't quit this anytime soon.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:57):
Like the Manti Taoe story, I'm like, well, that's as
wild as it's going to get. And then that Belichick
story is different. But you're like, this would never happen.
If someone told you five years ago this would be
a storyline, You're like, no, not a chance.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Well even five years ago, if they said, you know,
Bill's basically not going to get a job. He'll get
fired by the Patriots and he's going to go to
North Carolina, he'd be like, that ain't happening. And then
he gets fired and then he goes to Carolina and
he's not getting back in the NFL. If anything, this
would make a team more apprehensive to bring him back,
(22:32):
because you got to bring her into.
Speaker 11 (22:36):
What do we do?
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Yes?
Speaker 9 (22:37):
Paul Bill Belichick's book The Art of Winning, debuted at
number five in a New York Times bestsellers list last week.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
A great I'm happy for him. Is anybody talking about
what's in the book. By the way, it doesn't feel
like anybody's talking about his art of winning winning, it's
about her and everything that surrounds. It's I'm like, hey, Bill,
give me the top ten reasons why you're the greatest
(23:05):
coach of all time. It's how involved is she in
the North Carolina program? Are you guys engaged?
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Marvin, do you think.
Speaker 8 (23:13):
That book is as boring as his press conferences? Like
he's talking about the art of what, Like there's nothing. Okay,
I put Lawrence Taylor out there. Okay, me too.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
I don't know if he's dishing any real great stories.
I'm gonna guess he's not.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Like, I don't think he's saying, oh, you know, there
was a time when Lawrence Taylor stayed out all night
and then showed up at Phil Simms house and the
morning he hadn't slept and he wanted to borrow Phil's
golf clubs and he was still playing for the New
York Giants. Like, Okay, that's kind of interesting. I don't
think you have too many of those stories there.
Speaker 9 (23:51):
Yes, imagine if Belichick voiced the audio book, ohel was
a great player? Can we turn it up with Mike.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
Rabel And then we were down twenty eight to three,
and I said to Tom, let's go get him.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
That was my favorite moment of I don't know if
it was a football life or one of those things
at NFL Network would do. But he's sailing out on
his boat. Yeah you know, twenty nine billion rings whatever
he calls it, and he's like, uh, he's sailing out,
and he has a smile and says, now.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
This is what I call fun.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Could make it up.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Now, this is what I call fun.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
If you google Steven Wright, the comedian and his stand
up routine. If Bill Belichick was a comedian, that's what
he would sound like.
Speaker 8 (24:45):
I bought some batteries, but they weren't included.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
So I had to buy him again.
Speaker 8 (24:49):
Yes, Marvin, all those pages in that book, and he
still didn't tell us why he didn't play Malcolm Butler
in the Super Bowl. Yeah yeah, like, I don't care
about your life lessons from west Lean.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
But the fact that he was the most excited I
think I've ever seen him or heard him is when
he was explaining the deflate gate that that was right
up his alley, that all of a sudden, there is chemistry,
there's math, there's oh, there's trigonometry. There's all of this
and he is just he can't wait to tell you
about that. And yeah, I haven't seen the book. It
(25:27):
wasn't sent to us. Normally we get books sent to
us and they said, would you like to have the
author on We didn't get that book. I don't think
we got an opportunity to interview Bill Belichick? Did we, ton,
I don't think we did.
Speaker 5 (25:39):
We do not.
Speaker 6 (25:40):
We asked for him for sure.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Of course, no response, no response.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Okay, yeah, you know at this point, like I'm not
interested in it. I'm interested in everything but what he
wants to sell me, you know, It's that's what really interesting.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Yeah, see, I.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
Am really interested in how North Carolina goes though. I'm
really interested to see how he does with that team,
and if you know, is he gonna last another year?
Is he gonna make it through this year? Is it
gonna be awesome? Is it going to be terrible? I'm
so curious to see how he does there.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Did the book just come in?
Speaker 9 (26:20):
We have a copy of the book. One of the
brg's had a copy. I think he actually purchased it.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Yeah, because I didn't get a copy sent to me.
Speaker 9 (26:27):
The Art of Winning Lessons from my life of football
and on the cover from Tom Brady, coach Belichick brought
out the best of me his book will do the
same for you.
Speaker 3 (26:39):

back Roger Goodell, Michael Jordan, Nick Saban, and Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (26:52):

think there's something in there. And the acknowledgments with his girlfriend.

The three page epilogue of A now thank you, So
I'd have to go through.
Speaker 3 (27:09):

The first person thanked other than his literary team. Belichick
does three pages of acknowledgments in this book.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (27:20):
The first group thanked is the literary team of Inkwell Management,
Simon and Schusher, the book publishing people. The next person

Carolina Blue, Great uniforms, Great uniforms.
Speaker 9 (28:18):
Oh, I'm checking for your name, and the acknowledgement freezing through.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
It won't be there once again.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
The only conversation I had with him was I was
around the conversation with him. He didn't acknowledge me when
he settle over to Rodney Harrison and Tony Dungeye when
we were we were at the Meadowlands for a Jets
game and against the Patriots, and I remember he came
out and then he said Rondy and then walked by
me and he goes my coach going on. I think
(28:50):
Rodney goes, did he say anything to it, and goes, Nope,
No he didn't, No, he didn't.
Speaker 8 (28:54):
Yeah, Mark, that's going to be yes tonight when there's
gonna be tons of people because when you walk in
yeah like royalty, Oh Dan, Oh, I grew up watching
you walk right past us. I don't know who these
other idiots are.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
Yeah, accurate.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
It could be, could be, And then then there's gonna
be a couple of people that I don't want to see,
get a couple of pops in them, and then they're
gonna want to come over. I want to chat. Remember
this one guy did not want to see a couple
of years ago, he had like George Washington teeth and uh,
I just remember when he came over and uh, he
(29:29):
wanted to be my friend, and I'm like, I don't.
I don't think we're we're friends. Yeah, that was that
was not good. No, I'm good.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
I'm good.
Speaker 4 (29:42):
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I tell my family all about you.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
I go great.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
I told my family all about you too.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
Yes, Paul, I'm skimming through coach Belichick's book and there's
not one photograph in the book of like as a
child with his father at a football field.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Are there diagrams? No?
Speaker 9 (29:59):
I see no l rations whatsoever of any type, and
no photos.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
No, that's not my kind of book.
Speaker 9 (30:04):
Yeah, you think there'd be some of him at a
Navy football game as a child or something like that.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Let's see Nathan and san Antonio. Hi, Nate, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 12 (30:15):
Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 15 (30:17):
This Bill Belichick.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
Thing as wow, heading nod to Marvin.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Then I got.
Speaker 15 (30:23):
Two questions for you. Two NBA questions. First one, with
these new teams that are now poised to win the championship,
is the old way we think of the NBA as
you got to take your lumps, only veteran teams win.
Is that out or is this just kind of a
one off year? And second question, if you are Steph
(30:45):
Curry and you look at your effect on the league
and how the game looks now, are you proud of
your legacy?
Speaker 2 (30:56):
I would be proud of myself just because I'm the
best shooter in history. You're not, but that's up to
you and others to tell you that you're not. Steph
Curry just said, Hey, if you do it really, really,
really well, this is what it looks like for the
rest of you. Don't follow my lead here, but yeah,
(31:18):
I would be proud of my legacy that he changed
the game. What was the all I the NBA has changed?
You know when we talk about all you've got to
lose to learn how to win.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I think it used to be that way.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
I just don't know with these younger players now what
resonates with them I don't know that. And they're getting
into the league at such a young age. Now, you know,
you're eighteen or nineteen or twenty. I mean Larry Bird
was probably twenty five when he went into the NBA.
You know, you get in these guys are grown men.
(31:57):
You're already getting money, nil money, you know, your business man.
So it's just different. I don't know what resonates.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
You know.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
Back in the day, they played every game. They wanted
to play every game. Now they're like, why do I
need to play every game?
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I got it.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I understand. It's a whole different mindset. Jeremy in Indianapolis, Hi, Jeremy,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (32:19):
Hey Dan, Dan, that's good luck to you guys tonight.
We're all pulling for you. I miss you guy. Yesterday
I wanted to get in and tell my best and
worse of the weekend. The best of the weekend was
being able to go with my wife to any five
hundred qualifying, got to tackle on with my buddy and
his girlfriend. We got party deck tickets, all stuff that
was awesome. Made our way down to Pitt Road after that,
(32:41):
and that's sort of where the worst of the weekend
comes in. Sitting there, and all of a sudden, I
see this lot of people walking down Pitt Road and
I'm like, man, who is You's got to be somebody important,
And all of a sudden, everything goes quiet. Trumpets start
going off in my head, everything goes blurry except for him.
It's Jeff Gordon. It's my idol growing up. It's my
(33:03):
favorite driver. I look at my wife. She goes, hey,
run down there. You got right. I'm wearing his inaugural
Brickyard four hundred T shirt from nineteen ninety four. I
run down there. I'm like, man, I hope I can
get him to sign it, get a picture of anything.
He's standing there with a couple of kids, does some
autographs and kind of walks away, and I look at
my life and I'm like, man, I don't think this
is gonna happen. And she kind of gives me the
(33:24):
sign like hey, keep trying, keep trying. And he starts
walking back into the public area and I'm like, okay,
that's my shot. So I run get about ten feet
from him, and he's about ready to get on a
golf cart. I got all these things rattling in my head,
and all of a sudden. The only thing that came
out was, Hey, Jeff, you like my shirt? He goes,
without missing a beat, he goes, yep, love the shirt
(33:46):
and drives off. So I just didn't know if that
ever happened to you guys where you kind of see
your idol and you just kind of end up fumbling
the bag and you don't know what to say.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
You hung in there, and I credit your wife for
kind of urge you to go out there say something.
He acknowledged you. Okay, he didn't sign, didn't get a picture.
I mean, that's what I probably would have done it
snap a picture at least, you know, show the proximity.
But yeah, I remember meeting I didn't meet Pete Marovitch,
(34:15):
but I remember watching a game in Cincinnati. He came
out and there was a mob, was boy band mob,
and people were grabbing at Pete. My friend grabbed some
of his hair. He did sign my program, but you
don't even know what he wrote down. He was writing
down pistol. He wrote down pistol. But I remember seeing
(34:35):
my friend as Pete got in a Cadillac Eldorado and
left Balt Bellamy was with him, big Man and Zekee Campbell.
My friend had Pete's hair in his hand. He goes,
I grabbed his hair, like in a moment he's walking out,
he grabs Pete's hair. I think I had that autograph somewhere,
(35:00):
all of those autographs from the seventies and back then,
penmanship was really important, like Jerry West penmanship, Johnny Bench penmanship,
Pete Rose penmanship, Gordy Howe's penmanship, like it was really important. Nowadays,
when you see autographs, you go, who is that? Well,
it's such and such. Back then, when you got an autograph,
(35:22):
they felt like they were in a cursive class. You know,
they were getting graded on this. I have a puck
from Gordi Howe. It is the finest penmanship I think
I've ever come across.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
And that's a guy.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Who's got his hands probably mangled from playing, you know,
thirty five years in professional hockey. All right, Well, take
a break, last call for phone calls. What we learned,
what's in store for tomorrow, all of that coming up.
Speaker 1 (35:48):

Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific

recap what happened at the NFL Owners meetings as well,
and of course recapping the big night.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
The Sports Emmys. Ah, there's pressure on us, and there's
nothing we could do about it. I feel pressure. You
don't feel pressure, Paul.
Speaker 9 (36:22):
Uh pressure. No, there's nothing we could do about it.
I know it's a random group of judges and you
don't know what they like.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
I know, I know.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
We're running out of time, though.
Speaker 9 (36:35):
Well we're gear. I'm not gonna say that word. No,
we are likely to get one the year after. I
don't want that one, I know, But I'm just saying,
if I was analyzing this, you're you have like about
an eighty percent chance we have the year after you
retire in this show ends.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Yeah, I don't want one, right, I don't want that.
We'll take it show posthumously, not life postume.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Right.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Yeah, I don't want that.
Speaker 12 (36:59):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Either we get it during the timeframe of doing this.
Speaker 9 (37:03):
Or we don't get it, we'll take our name out
of the running.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
No, I know. I know a couple of shows that
have done that and they're not winning. So when you
say I don't want. I don't want to be up
for that award. Don't wear you weren't, but they tell
you that. It's kind of a preemptive strike there. Everybody's
got their outfits for tonight. It's supposed to be sort
(37:29):
of is it formal?
Speaker 9 (37:32):
No business dress?
Speaker 3 (37:34):
Business dress? Is that country club?
Speaker 9 (37:37):
You should wear a sport code on a sport code day.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
Yeah, See, don't show up in a polo shirt. Well
Paulie did for Family Feud.
Speaker 5 (37:46):
Well that it was nice.
Speaker 7 (37:47):
I don't know if that was a polo shirt either,
but I don't most people there have like a suit
and tie on tonight.
Speaker 3 (37:54):
I'm not gonna wear a tie.
Speaker 9 (37:56):
I'm gonna wear a tie.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
I'm wearing a tie.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
I re tired that.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
Nicely.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
I wore a tie for how many years? You know,
I'm done with that. Maybe maybe a turtleneck a dicky.
Speaker 2 (38:13):
Yeah, he's like that. It was so weird growing up
and be like, is that a turtleneck? No, it's a dicky.
So it was just it was meant to look like
a turtleneck, but it.
Speaker 9 (38:24):
Was just it went about your chest plate like a swear.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Yeah, the top part of it like a clip on tie.
Speaker 9 (38:29):
Turtle what was the rush in the seventies. Like, I
can't commit to a sweater underneath this.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
I have no idea.
Speaker 7 (38:35):
I like to look on the neck, but I just
don't want to be hot underneath.
Speaker 5 (38:39):
Like it's a little too much sleeve for me.
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Yes, Todd, I considered a tie, but then I tried
on my shirt and realized that I could not close
the top button was strangling my neck. So the decision
was made for me when I was like, Nope, it's
not happening.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Or maybe you get a new shirt, or there's another option.
Speaker 6 (38:56):
You can drop a few LB's and all of a
sudden the neckline gets.
Speaker 3 (38:59):
A little l could get a bigger, bigger shirt. You
could do that.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
I thought the shirt I had was plenty of bit.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Well, you did wear a bright yellow like a Savannah
Banana's tight shirt on the family.
Speaker 6 (39:14):
Shoas we love the owner of that team.
Speaker 3 (39:16):
Yeah he's dressed like Carrious George.
Speaker 5 (39:23):
Shirt.
Speaker 11 (39:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
I was the only one who wore a sport coat
on a family feud. Marvin wore a some kind of
bomber jacket or something.
Speaker 8 (39:31):
Light bomber jacket.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (39:33):
Yeah, ties are on my thing either. Yeah, I wore
them growing up, No, thank you.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
John in Hilton Head, Hi, John.
Speaker 12 (39:41):
Danny, how are you doing, Buddy? Dan AT's first time?
Long time. I know you guys are always trying to
spruce up the show. Before I get into my Brett
fire conversation. Long time season ticket holder, But before I
do that, just a recommendation, that's all. Don't don't beat
me down now, but I'm going to suggest that maybe
we add some uptem to the intro. So, Hi, this
(40:03):
is John six foot one point eight twenty two reps.
You could add right right.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Well, what we what are we benching? Are you mentioned
five twenty two times?
Speaker 4 (40:15):
Yeah? That's right.
Speaker 12 (40:16):
I mean a rep is a combine line.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
I need I need a video. I need a video
of that, John, all.
Speaker 12 (40:23):
Right, before you added I'll send you a video. But
you could add vertical. You could add you know, forty,
you could I mean, you could add anything, just to
give people an idea on what your makeup is. But anyway,
let's go to Brett Barr. Sixty three years my family's
had season tickets. I'll tell you that the real key
with Brett versus Aaron Brett was a guy. And I'm
(40:44):
not just saying this Brett was a guy you could
have a beer with.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
He did.
Speaker 12 (40:48):
He was from Mississippi, but he did the hunting, the fishing.
He dressed in camo. I mean Brett was one of us.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Well, that may have been part of the problem that
you could have a beer with, but yeah, I mean
we got that feeling when we were in Green Bay,
the people that we spoke to.
Speaker 3 (41:07):
Todd, what did you learn today?
Speaker 11 (41:09):
You have the.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
