Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We did it. We limped to Wednesday final hour on
this program, Dan and The Dan at Stan Patrick Show.
We're not here on Thursday or Friday, therefore no meat Friday.
So Tyler decided to whip up some sausages and bacon,
egg and cheese bagels and some hash Browns. Who has
it better than we do? No Out of the day
(00:26):
brought to you bonb Panini America, the official trading cards
of the program. Thursday Night main course, it's the Dolphins
taking on the Packers at Lambeau eight Eastern on NBC
and Peacock Kenny Maine SportsCenter anchor. He's back at ESPN.
Came back part time basis you've got a documentary on
wiffle ball. He'll explain that coming up in a little bit.
(00:49):
Daniel Jones, if you're just tuning in, has a new team.
He's with the Vikings, and I like it a lot
because Kevin O'Connell was such a great quarterback, whisper former
quarterback and college and really one of the bright offensive
minds in the NFL. What he's done with Sam Darnold,
he was there with Kirk d Cousins, and now you
get Daniel Jones and maybe he can have somebody who
(01:11):
can coach him and he can sit back and absorb
this a little bit, get out of the New York spotlight.
So Daniel Jones going to the Minnesota Vikings. As far
as the games this weekend, you know, it used to
being Ohio State in Michigan. That was your headline this
time of the year. Michiganian is getting twenty and a
(01:31):
half points in this game against Ohio State. Do we
have any research, any numbers on the biggest points spread
differential between those two teams in the last fifty years.
I can't imagine anybody has been that large of an underdog.
I would think anything that was close to ten points
(01:53):
would be, you know, something that you don't see very often.
The Ohio State quarter coach Ryan Day talked about what
it's like that feeling of losing to Michigan.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
We felt like, what it's like to not win his
game and is bad. It's one of the worst things
that's happened to me in my life, you know, quite honestly,
other than losing my father and a few other things,
like it's quite honestly, for my family, the worst thing
that's happened, so we can never have that happen again.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Ever. Wow, that's game time with Ryan Day. PAULI do
have the biggest point spread between these two.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Point spread history really only goes back to nineteen sixty nine,
where you could have a definitive. Ok, this is the
biggest underdog Michigan has been in any game since nineteen
sixty nine. That's a long time, the biggest spread in history. Man,
Michigan was a seventeen point underdog to Ohio State in
(02:49):
both nineteen sixty nine and nineteen ninety six. They won
both games.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Outright, Oh Michigan ooh steat of the day, stat of
the day? Best stead of the day stat of the day?
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Here comes that what stat of the day?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Coming up? Will have the most must win game of
the weekend? Also, Fritzi will have his Thanksgiving Day sports names.
It is a holiday tradition around here. Eight seven seven
three DP show. We'll get some more phone calls coming
up and pull question for the final hour of the
program seton what are you gonna whip up here?
Speaker 6 (03:26):
Let's see right now we got which game will get
the highest TV ratings. That is crazy. Giants Cowboys are
very much in last place. Bears, Lions and Dolphins Packers
are pretty much split right down the middle.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I have to believe the Cowboys are still going to
get eyeball Cowboys and the Giants. I know that the
Dolphins and the Green Bay Packers is spicy the Bears
Lions divisional rivalry, but I don't know people still tune
in to watch the Cowboys either win or lose.
Speaker 7 (03:57):
Yes, Marvin, you know what, America, Because here's the thing.
The game starts at four point thirty. That's gonna be
prime nap time, and no one's gonna make it appointment
viewing because the Cowboys and the Giants, neither of them
are very good.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Okay, speaking of the Cowboys, if you're a fan of
the Dan Patrick Takes a Gamble Podcast, and I'm not
guilty of hyperbole, yesterday we taped this week's Dan Patrick
Takes a Gamble Podcast. It blew me away. It was
as wild. It's wilder than any episode we've ever done.
(04:35):
I'm just gonna warn you it's we do talk about games, gambling.
You know what the picks are with the guys. But
it has to do a whole lot with Shay and
what's going on in his life. He shared an awful lot.
So you get a chance, you want to listen to.
Dan Patrick takes a gamble. Marvin, you were there, you
(04:57):
were an ear witness.
Speaker 7 (04:58):
You're not exaggerating. It was crazy. It started out crazy
and it just kept going.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Yeah, when bad Larry is giving Shaye and Irving marital advice,
that'll give you an idea. And Dylan, who's not even married,
was giving Shae marital advice. At one point, Shay says
his wife played a clip from the podcast in therapy
(05:24):
with their marriage counselor.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
Yes, seen did bead Larry's advice for Shay start with
not calling your wife and mother of your children the roommate.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
That did come up. It did come up. Yeah, yeah,
that comes up in then therapy couple's therapy counseling. But
she did. And I don't know if did the therapist
need to have approval? Well, his wife actually played the clip,
so I don't know if Shay's wife roommate got permission
(05:57):
to you. Now, I don't want to add to what's
going on there, but oh my god, Shaye read a
letter on their on the air to the therapist. He
had to write, Okay, I can't even put it in context.
You have to listen to it. Go to Danpatrick dot com. Uh,
not with kids in the car. But it is a
(06:20):
wild If this was at Disney, it would be the
craziest ride. What's what's that ride? Is it the Arrowsmith
ride where you're up and it's a free fall?
Speaker 8 (06:33):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Tower Tear, Tower Tair. That would be this on steroids
that yesterday when we taped it. It's the Tower of Tear.
Got a lot of specials at Danpatrick dot com. I'm
telling you. So we got moon Yeah, we got Moonshine.
We have limited quantities of all of that. We got
(06:54):
the flannels. We also have the calendars as well, alan Al.
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (07:03):
Good morning Dan.
Speaker 10 (07:05):
I was calling in because I got a couple things
to say. I was hoping that the GM of the
Atlanta Braves, Alexandropolis, could work his magic and somehow sign
Paul Schemes and Blake Snell and add them to Chris Sayle,
Spender Strider and Spencer Swaddenbach and our starting rotation could
(07:25):
be nicknamed the s Train and we could just roll
over everybody, but the course of Dodgers getting richer when
they're already rich and ruin that for me. Second, the
person that I'd most like to knock the stuffing out
of even though the regular season has knocked him down
a few pegs, I still think smug Aaron Rodgers could
be knocked out a few more pegs.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Thank you, el and happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
Craig and fort Wayne II.
Speaker 11 (07:52):
Craig, good morning, math teacher day off, love it, Thank you.
Big Ten Football loses to Oregon and the Big Ten
championship two losses, Penn State one loss, Indiana one loss,
only two get in who's in?
Speaker 9 (08:08):
Thank you well.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Indiana doesn't have a great resume, they have a great story.
Penn State the same, Ohio State. See, these conference championship
games are going to go They're going to do something.
This is just a cash grab for colleges, for conferences,
and it's going to impact your better teams getting in
(08:31):
to the playoffs. And I think they'll somehow either add
more playoff spots. Okay, look how long it took college
football went kicking and screaming to get to four. Now
they're going to twelve. You know, We talked to Andy
Staples last hour and he said they're probably going to
fourteen teams next year. I mean, this is crazy. You
(08:53):
want to talk of, you know, getting in the hov lane.
Easy pass there Dan in La, Hey Dan, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 8 (09:03):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (09:04):
Uh yeah, Dan, pre Thanksgiving six foot and a pre
Thanksgiving hard dad body one eighty two. There it is.
I want to give a nod to the Minister of
Humor and fellow Denver Bronco fan Todd Fritz just just
not happy Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Todd.
Speaker 12 (09:25):
You know, watch out for that ozembic. It might get
you anyway. Three two things for you. If me and
Todd's bo Nicks, if they had to redraft two day,
would bo Nicks be potentially the number one draft pick
over Paully's Caleb and uh you know my wife's Jade
and Daniels slash.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
It's jayde and Daniels. Jade and Daniels would go number one.
I'd still have Caleb Williams go number two and bo
Nicks and Drake May that'd be a coin toss. Bo
Nix has done a really really good job. Here's the
thing that I hope doesn't happen, but I think it'll
happen when you tune in and you are banking on
(10:08):
bo Nicks coming up big, and then he doesn't, and
then it'll kind of do away with what has been
a really good rookie season. Drake May has played well
in spots for a bad team. Caleb Williams, if you
look at the last eight or nine games, has played
pretty well. Jade and Daniels, I know, playing with an injury,
(10:29):
but you know Jade Daniels would be the number one pick.
All right, Todd, do you have your Thanksgiving sports names?
We also have the most must win game of the weekend?
Which one do you? Which one do you want to?
Should we do? PAULI, let's let's say Thanksgiving names for
all save.
Speaker 8 (10:45):
We're actually extra special this year.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
I previewed them.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Okay, how about the most must win game of the weekend?
Music please thank you? Todd? The most must win game
of the weekend.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
If they're laying an against the Titans in Houston, I'm
going with the Texans at seven and five. I must
win at the two and nine Jaguars clean things up
in a very tight AFC playoff race.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Each Cheaton the mm W got.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
W EMMW got w Yes, I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Give you two. Can I do that?
Speaker 5 (11:16):
Sure?
Speaker 9 (11:16):
Why not?
Speaker 6 (11:17):
The forty nine ers absolutely must win. Ohio State absolutely
must win. That is a If Ohio State does not
win this weekend, Ryan Day should be fired. Wow, fair
one hundred percent, you should be. As soon as that
clock strikes zero, somebody should walk over and say, can
I take this off of you please?
Speaker 2 (11:35):
We'll send you stuff back, Marvin. The most much win
game of the weekend Alabama.
Speaker 7 (11:42):
If they don't beat Auburn, who's down this year, they'll
have four losses.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
That is no good for missus de Borg.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Paulie.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Wow, those are scalding hot, by the way, those last two.
I'm gonna go with the Tennessee Volunteers sitting at eight.
They have a playoff spot. If they lose to Van Dey,
they're out and another SEC team is in. So you're
not only leaving the playoffs, you're letting another win in.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
I'm going to say the Ravens against the Eagles. The
Ravens are favored by three against the Eagles. Got to
win this game. Got to win this game because now
you're not going to have home field advantage. You had
that last year. You don't have that. Are you going
to be able to win on the road a couple
of times in the playoffs? So I would say that
(12:28):
would be my most must win. The Steelers against the
Bengals is kind of The Steelers are getting three against
the Bengals. That's kind of interesting. And I'd probably throw
in the Chargers as well. They play against the Falcons.
Chargers are favored, but kirkt Cousins, maybe he brings them
(12:48):
back to life here because they could certainly use a
little boost here. Winston in Puerto Rico, Hey Winston, what's
on your mind? Hey?
Speaker 13 (12:58):
Dan?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
How are y'all great?
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Five?
Speaker 8 (13:01):
Seven one sixty five?
Speaker 14 (13:03):
Very soft?
Speaker 12 (13:04):
Soft?
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Too soft?
Speaker 8 (13:08):
What a call?
Speaker 13 (13:08):
He also also a proud member of the Dead Dad,
Dead Mom, Dead Dog, Dead Everything Club and also calling
to talk about South Carolina. I feel like they're not
getting any respect. What are your thoughts on if they
be Clemson by more than ten? I mean, they got
to put them in right.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
You know, I can't put myself in the room with
the committee because I don't I don't know what matters.
Every time I think I know what matters, I realize
that it doesn't matter. Or depending on what time of
the year. When you lose, how do you lose, where
did you lose by? How many you won, where did
you win, how much did you win by? I have
no idea. I always go back to this. I've said
(13:52):
this many many times. These are TV shows. The playoffs
are to get ratings TV shows, to get fans to
go to games, to fill up all of those stadiums.
That's why you have home games because of the extra
playoff games. They want to make sure if your fan
base goes on the road that they're selling out or
(14:13):
they're bringing their fandom, so you do have a sellout.
That's why you have home games. You're guaranteed to have sellouts.
It looks big, it is big. It's important. March Madness
the same thing TV show, but with the twelve team playoff,
maybe more so of a TV show. Yes, Tom, I
(14:33):
had a couple of.
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Corny Thanksgiving jokes if you want to humor me, if
there's time, sure, very very brief only absolutely what penalty
are football players allowed to commit only on Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Only on Thanksgiving you can commit this penalty?
Speaker 5 (14:51):
Is it?
Speaker 6 (14:53):
Jellum holding? Jellum holding?
Speaker 8 (14:58):
The judges were looking for like.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
We got Home.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
Yes, the judges are looking for us. Stuffing the passer.
Stuffing the pastor is allowed only on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 14 (15:13):
That's why they're corny jokes.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
What's the most popular play to run on Thanksgiving? M
it would be the Wishbone?
Speaker 6 (15:25):
M Okay, okay, yeahshbone.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
But the Wishbone is a is a formation.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
Yeah, but it's still kind of a play. You got
to get in the formation to run the play. Play
can't just happened without the formation. Why should the rest
last one? Why should the refts blow the whistle if
you ate too much and refuse to consume any more
mashed potatoes or yams? Why should the rest blow the
whistle for that? If you just can't or won't eat
anymore mashed potatoes or yams?
Speaker 14 (15:47):
What's the call?
Speaker 8 (15:51):
You're off sides?
Speaker 14 (15:54):
That was clever?
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Off sides, Katie?
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Anymore mash potatoes? Yea, so you're off sides.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
I just want to I just want to point out
that all of these are very clever. All of these
are an exact just why you are so great?
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Can they be clever and not funny? I guess because
you guys weren't really laughing. It was like, oh, I
get it off side. You're offside dishes.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
You're off side dishes. Yeah, you're offside.
Speaker 8 (16:15):
It's my problem with my humor though. I'll make like observations,
but what it's supposed to be observational humor the humor part.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Are you done? You're done?
Speaker 8 (16:21):
Yeah? Stuffing the past of the wishbone and you're off
sides it.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
The only person clapping is your back back the front.
Speaker 8 (16:31):
They're not clapping rigorously, but that's clapping going on rigorously.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I don't think I've ever been accused of clapping rigorously.
Speaker 8 (16:42):
Don't watch Massed Potatoes for me. I'm off side.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
The rest of the night is awesome. I'm thankful for you.
I'm going to use that tomorrow.
Speaker 14 (16:49):
I hope you do.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Yeah, you know what tonight? I think I'm gonna say
it tonight.
Speaker 14 (16:52):
Why not?

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Kenny Manski, former ESPN Sports Center anchor, now a current
SportsCenter anchor, I believe, and he has a documentary on
Fubu Sports. It's called Wiffleball, and Kenny joins us. Now,
first of all, let's clear up, what is your job
description now with ESPN?
Speaker 15 (17:37):
I'm unemployed, But next time somebody hires me, I'm employed.
That's where I'm at right now. No, they let me
on last Friday, Okay, to promote just like you aren't,
thank you for I know you're probably desperate for guests
the day before Thanksgiving. I was happy to fill that role.
I made a silly little movie. Really it's a long video,
(17:58):
but it sounds cooler to call it a film. And
I've been asking old friends, and you guys are kind
enough to let me come out here and promote what
I'm doing. But they put me on Sports Center last
Friday as a favor to promote my movie.
Speaker 9 (18:09):
That's all. It was a one off.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Oh okay, I thought you came back and then you
were going to be a sports center Would you come
back right now? If offered how much and how many
let's say, they said you had to do fifty sports centers.
Speaker 9 (18:27):
Are you negotiating for me?
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I will?
Speaker 15 (18:30):
I mean you have way more power. I mean I'm
like I said, I'm unemployed. I'm selling a movie. I
have a podcast deal. We're waiting on paperwork. I'm selling
greeting cards. I might sell my car. I don't want
to sell my house. We're doing okay, we're not doing
to go fundmeh okay.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
I to make sure you don't know it.
Speaker 15 (18:51):
Was, I will say it really was fun going back
for the one day. Like I know you've come back
once or twice. I think you and Keith. In fact,
I worked that night and it was cool. It was
great having you guys around and doing your thing, but
it's also feels a little weird because you've left. Now
you're back. They didn't know me. At the front gate.
The guy said, have you ever been here before?
Speaker 9 (19:11):
Do you know your way? Yeah, I'll figure it out.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
The same thing happened to me. Made me show ID
and I said I helped build this place, and then
he laughed, I go, I'm not joking. So he gave
me a visitor's pass that I wore on the air
with Van Pelt one night. I'm like, all right, I'll
just be a visitor here or yeah.
Speaker 15 (19:29):
I have the same thing when it comes to trying
to get credentials for different events. So like Seahawks were
at the Giants last year and my credentials said my
name and said other They didn't know what the hell
to call me.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
So in between jobs. All right, so tell us how
you decided that you were going to do a document
I call it a documentary. It is, yeah, documentary on
wiffle ball.
Speaker 15 (19:58):
Years and years ago, when I was in Seattle one
day when Ken Griffy was a rookie. He Harold Reynolds
and I went into a little feature story at the
Seattle Center, ended up throwing wiffleballs for speed on a
really chintzy little radar gun. And all these years I
bragged that I beat Griffy by one mile prior. In
my head, I still think I did. I think my
cameraman double clicked. And Griffy was at the Seattle Sports
(20:21):
Awards show two years ago and he brought it up,
so it's in his head from thirty odd years ago.
I was like, I'm going to make a dumb movie
about a It's really my love letter to wiffleball my childhood,
and then it morphs into can you believe I got
to throw whiffle balls against you know, the Willie Mays
of our era, And we tried to prove my point
(20:41):
that I beat.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Him, but was griffy cooperative with your documentary.
Speaker 9 (20:47):
He declined to be physically involved.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Still in his head, then.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
I think he knows I beat him. That's what I think, but.
Speaker 15 (20:55):
I don't care because he's legend in baseball in Seattle.
Getting to look at him at age nineteen throwing a
whiffle ball is just funny all by itself. We have
Ken Burns, fellow documentarian, he's in the documentary. We have
a science professor analyzing the tape. We have the president
of whiffle ball in Connecticut. You know, it's right down
(21:15):
there off Rout eight by you, And so we have
all these components. I really try to tell a real story,
like I really wanted to take that part seriously, but
yet do it in somewhat of a silly way.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And it's also an homage a love letter to the
city of Seattle as well.
Speaker 9 (21:30):
Oh for sure.
Speaker 15 (21:31):
I mean it starts with my Dick Williams joke. I'm
my second year of broadcast in Seattle. I'm local sports
reporter for this little station in Tacoma. And I said, Dick,
is it just me or if you had trouble purchasing
whiffleball equipment this spring? I'm thinking that's really funny, better
than the Thanksgiving jokes you guys just and Dick looks
at me like you wanted to kill me. And I'm like,
(21:53):
you know the plastic bat thing, and he's I know
what wiffleball is that? Your joke's not funny. Okay, let's
talk about your middle relief. How did how do they
stacking up hoose?
Speaker 16 (22:03):
Uh?
Speaker 9 (22:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 17 (22:04):
So?
Speaker 15 (22:05):
But no Mark sands for my best friend Broke Babruce
homeran record in one summer of whiffle ball. Those are
dogs barking in the back. I'm outdoors. Also, got some
construction noise. Now there's a dog fight. I just want
to be inside where our dogs might bark or Gretchen
with yell, go get crescent rolls or something, so I
matter on the place.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
It's quite a quite a spread you've got there is that?
Is that your Connecticut mansion or your Seattle mansion?
Speaker 15 (22:30):
Well, because you built ESPN and others of us got
to follow you and gain from that wind fault.
Speaker 9 (22:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (22:37):
No, we're in Connecticut, so I got remarried and and
our last of the four daughters just went to college.
It's just me and Gretchen here in West Starford. But
all the girls came back for Thanksgiving, so we're very
joyous about that.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Okay, you can find the documentary Whiffleball on Fubo sports
po bo fo boh, what did I say?
Speaker 9 (22:57):
Boo boo?
Speaker 15 (22:58):
You talked about the clothing line teen eighty three bobo.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
What's available now on demand.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
On fu Bo. Kenny Mainski joining us Live to the
Nation on the program. Do you know I thought of
that coming in you?
Speaker 15 (23:16):
You and Stuart Scott both had a funny way of
making me giggle right before the show would start. You
would always say Live to the Nation right before we
run the air, and it'd make you and Stuart always said,
let's get stupid. And each one had its own value
for loosening an audience.
Speaker 9 (23:32):
And your your co host.
Speaker 15 (23:34):
Do you remember your first Sports Center Yeah, it was
with Larry Beal. He was very gentle and guided me
through You're nervous as hell. The first one. You know,
I'm over there on ESPN two doing the sports smash,
and then now and then you know people needed to date.
Brett Haber is off today and here come I and
Larry's a sweetheart. I mean he guided me through a
(23:55):
little different than Kilbourne, who's like, thanks for joining us
from ESPN two. Can and what are you paradise now?
You're in charge of scheduling like you were good. You're
a little bit letterman like, though you don't like just
now you went away for six minutes. No hello before
just come live to the nation when it's time. You
(24:15):
don't want to get too close to the person your interview.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
No, no, I think it's easier that way. Sometimes you
leave your best stuff, you know, before you do the interview.
And although people might debate if we've left our best
stuff before the interview during this interview, but even doing
highlights that you know, there were no guard rails, we
basically got to the point where when Oberman and I
(24:41):
were doing we mocked ourselves doing the highlights because we'd
kind of run out of ways to be creative with highlights.
And I think you even mocked our mocking of our highlights.
Speaker 15 (24:54):
What I remember most about you is how quickly you
were out of the bild. Like you're saying about it.
The camera guy in the audio, where's down? He's got,
he's on the fire starter on his car. He's gone,
he's done. On the way to Stamford. He's halfway down. Rude,
But no, you were great to work with. Somebody asked
me just on one of my recent interviews, because remember
Keith left and then they had this try out thing
(25:16):
for three months. It was all weird, and somehow they
picked me out of the hat. And those were a
couple of good years.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Well, it was one of those that they put so
much pressure on me because Oberman left and they're like,
all right, and everybody in the building thought I was
picking who my co host was. And I said, I'm
going to do the show. You watched the show. Who
do you want to see on the show? And I
remember I didn't lose friendship, but I did lose Some
people were upset that maybe I didn't go to bat
(25:46):
for them or they should have been in there, but
I just said, hey, I didn't have anything to do
with it, which I didn't. And I remember when I
got a call. I was on a camping trip with
my son and Norby. Williamson said, hey, we're gonna go
with Kenny. I said, okay, I got to go back
to helping my son get his swimming badge, so you know,
I'll see you in a week.
Speaker 8 (26:07):
And that was it.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I didn't.
Speaker 14 (26:08):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
I didn't want to get involved in it because I
just thought, let management decide who they want in there
instead of me trying to bigfoot and say you know
who I want because it didn't matter because you were
following Keith and whoever that was was going to have
a lot of pressure on them. And I don't know
if you felt it, but you know that was surely
certainly what I was trying to factor in here.
Speaker 15 (26:31):
Thanks for picking me, so yeah, I mean Norby must
have got out voted, right. It must have been Walsh
and Vince and I don't know what the committee. Steve
Anderson was still there.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
So Norby didn't like you.
Speaker 9 (26:45):
I don't think he got me. I don't think he
disliked me so much as he just O.
Speaker 15 (26:49):
God, I wasn't serious enough to convey the giants Russian statistics.
Speaker 9 (26:55):
That week or whatever, like I thought.
Speaker 15 (26:58):
I didn't copy anybody, but I definitely modeled after what
you guys did, because you guys made it fun.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
You know.
Speaker 15 (27:03):
That's Bill Patrick was good, all sorts of people, Bob
Lee's sharp sense of humor, Charlie Steiner, on and on
and on.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
And it was supposed to be fun.
Speaker 15 (27:11):
We always took the serious things seriously if somebody, you know,
some serious matter, whatever it was, and the rest of
it was just fun. You're supposed to have fun. Guys
made a nice catch, say a selly lion, say a
home run call, Well, you know whatever, have fun.
Speaker 9 (27:24):
Still trying to have fun.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Well, the The Doctor football on Fubo Sport. It's it's
on demand. It's Kenny's Whiffleball documentary can be found on Fubo.
That's fu Bo Sports.
Speaker 9 (27:38):
And you did there.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Yeah, you see what I did. Finally got it for
the second time. You finally got it. F you Bo
highlights his journey to find out if he threw a
whiffle ball faster than Ken Griffy Jr.
Speaker 15 (27:53):
Take the Seahawks on the money line gambling problems. Thanks, Thanks,
like the Seahawks this week? Oh you do Seahawks money line.
Speaker 9 (28:05):
Straight up?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
All right? You know, I ate right back thank you.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Kenny.
Speaker 9 (28:09):
Who bos Wait, I'm done. I had like a half
I still got time plenty.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
We're done now.
Speaker 14 (28:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
I wanted to make sure that we you know, I
don't want to ruin everything and then everybody's going to go,
I've heard the story, get like I want them. This
a tease is what it is.
Speaker 9 (28:24):
Yeah, career, let's go.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
He's Kenny Kenny May. Thanks Kennys, Happy Thanksgiving to you
and the girls. Okay, that's it, We've done it. It's
Kenny May. Do you remember we did the sports Center
commercial where we did different countries and we had to
dress up changes and then we were it was Kenny Mainski.
We were Russian sports We were doing the sports Center
(28:51):
version in Russia, and then I think, uh, Mexico. I
don't know what other countries. There were like three of them. Oh,
I think we're wearing lee hosen for one of them.
But yes, I don't know what my name was. My
name Boris Patrick with Kenny Mainski, something like that. Yeah,
those commercials are still funny.
Speaker 9 (29:13):
They are.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
When we first started doing them and the folks from
Widen and Kennedy came in, they'd been working with Nike.
And they just observed for an entire week everything that
we did, where we parked, where we ate, everything we
did in between sports centers, and then they went back
and then they came back and they said, all right,
here are the commercials. But it still came down to
(29:36):
we couldn't get any athletes to come in and do
those commercials. Everybody want to get paid. And that's when
I reached out to Grant Hill and Jason Kidd and
I said, hey, would you come to ESPN you don't
get paid, and you'll be in your own Sports Center
commercial and they're like seriously. I said, we'll donate twenty
(29:59):
five hundred dollars to year favorite charity, and Grant Hill
played the piano in the lobby and Jason Kidd was
getting out of a helicopter handing his highlights to us
as if that's how we got the highlights, and then
we put those highlights together on Sports Center. But that's
how it started. And then once those aired, we had
every athlete who wanted to do it. But it was
(30:20):
a brilliant, brilliant campaign. Did you have a question, Todd comment?
Speaker 8 (30:25):
I do not.
Speaker 14 (30:26):
I just remember those commercials. I like when you walk
down memory lane.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
That was fun with Kenny, thank you. Yeah he was.
Speaker 14 (30:31):
He was.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Every time you got on the show, Like you never
knew with Kenny, but he had such a dry sense
of humor, and you were just you know. The hard
part back then was, I don't know how it is
now with Sports Center, but you want to compliment the
person you're with. So Bob Lee was kind of a
serious journalist, so I could have a little more levity.
(30:54):
With Oberman, he could be really serious, so I could
be lighthearted, or the other way around. With Kenny was
very dry, so I had to be a little more serious.
So you kind of had to compliment each other. And
because you couldn't have the same personality with two different
Sports Center anchors, it's just too much for an hour.
(31:15):
So you really had to pick your spots there to
compliment each other. And that was the tricky part.
Speaker 8 (31:21):
Yes, ton, I like when you say, like bo Jackson
mcaddon got he's good at baseball.
Speaker 14 (31:24):
Could you dropped in like those little cute things? Yes
he did.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Yeah, it's never iffy with griffy home run call? All right,
last going for phone calls, what we learned, what's in
store for next week? We'll do all of that coming
up next.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific

Speaker 5 (32:09):
I love their family like atmosphere with us.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Paul.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
I love when a caller or a person on Twitter
listener has an unbelievable joke and we get to use
it on the show.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Yeah, because it's usually better than the jokes that we
have on our end. But we're thankful every day we
get to do this Monday through Friday. One day, it ends.
One day, it ends.
Speaker 14 (32:29):
Oh, we'd have to talk about that right now. No,
but live in the moment.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
It's like three years, almost three years. We got three
more years.
Speaker 14 (32:37):
That's like over a thousand days. You think about it.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
Out of time, Yes it is, but for the first
time ever, it's about to go from a four digit thing, no,
three digits. No, once you drop into the nine hundreds,
all then it just goes down to two digits after that.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
How many shows do we have so December twenty fourth,
twenty twenty seven, last day twenty twenty Yeah, twenty twenty seven.
How many shows will we do before then? Maybe we could?
Speaker 6 (33:10):
Well, you guys take every other week off anyway, so
it doesn't really matter.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
If you're gonna do the show and you got a
number ball, I.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
Would bet we have under eight hundred shows remaining.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
All right, let's make the best of it. How about
let's get one great show? Yeah, one for eight hundred? Yeah?
How many more.
Speaker 6 (33:32):

everybody's too big.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Yeah, Yeah, they leave us though, Yeah they do. It's
like this is the sports nest, and you know I
would bring back food and feed everybody and then they
just eventually get their wings and then they fly away.
That's it, Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
What about one of our new favorites, Benny Goodwill.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Benny Goodwill, Mike could carve out you know, five six appearances.
He's entertaining when it comes on. How about Ross Tucker

We had a lot of fun. This was a great

at it next Monday.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
All right, say something nice about us, everybody in the room.
Speaker 8 (38:28):
You guys are kind and considered for the most part. Sometimes,
oh my gosh, sometimes for the most part. Sometimes I
take the snarkiness or the meanest is the wrong way
because I'm very sensitive. But I think I think it's
all done in love, and ultimately we're all team players
and here to bring up the best in one another
and wish good, happy things for each other.
Speaker 6 (38:49):
Let's that is the clip, by the way, that if
we needed to play a clip of audio from the
show for a therapist, that's the one that I would
right there for.
Speaker 9 (38:57):
Todd.
Speaker 8 (38:58):
Would you learn when invited to if someone's home for
dinner this is a Paulie special. Saying you don't need
us to bring anything right is not a particularly genuine
offer at all.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
See O'Connor. What did you learn right?
Speaker 8 (39:09):
Right?
Speaker 6 (39:10):
Uh? Kenny Maine unemployed, open for business?
Speaker 5 (39:12):
Marvin, you think you're the best side dish?
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Yeah, yeah, Paulie, it was Boris Patrick Todd What did
I learn?
Speaker 8 (39:20):
Ryan Fitzpatrick thinks Jordan loving the pack or a sleeper
team that can be real tough in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Honest Rookie's biggest superstars, all time greats. The only police
to collect them all. Panini Trading Cards the official trading
cards of the Dan Patrick Show, Instant classics, autograph cards,
memorabilia cards, rare inserts started continued collection now Panini America
Dot noam. Thanks for all the phone calls, emails, tweets,
they all around support. We have a lot of things
to be grateful for, and certainly you being our audience.
(39:45):
Top of the list for Todd, Seaton, Marv Paulie, Here's
truly have a great weekend.
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We did it. We limped to Wednesday final hour on
this program, Dan and The Dan at Stan Patrick Show.
We're not here on Thursday or Friday, therefore no meat Friday.
So Tyler decided to whip up some sausages and bacon,
egg and cheese bagels and some hash Browns. Who has
it better than we do? No Out of the day
(00:26):
brought to you bonb Panini America, the official trading cards
of the program. Thursday Night main course, it's the Dolphins
taking on the Packers at Lambeau eight Eastern on NBC
and Peacock Kenny Maine SportsCenter anchor. He's back at ESPN.
Came back part time basis you've got a documentary on
wiffle ball. He'll explain that coming up in a little bit.
(00:49):
Daniel Jones, if you're just tuning in, has a new team.
He's with the Vikings, and I like it a lot
because Kevin O'Connell was such a great quarterback, whisper former
quarterback and college and really one of the bright offensive
minds in the NFL. What he's done with Sam Darnold,
he was there with Kirk d Cousins, and now you
get Daniel Jones and maybe he can have somebody who
(01:11):
can coach him and he can sit back and absorb
this a little bit, get out of the New York spotlight.
So Daniel Jones going to the Minnesota Vikings. As far
as the games this weekend, you know, it used to
being Ohio State in Michigan. That was your headline this
time of the year. Michiganian is getting twenty and a
(01:31):
half points in this game against Ohio State. Do we
have any research, any numbers on the biggest points spread
differential between those two teams in the last fifty years.
I can't imagine anybody has been that large of an underdog.
I would think anything that was close to ten points
(01:53):
would be, you know, something that you don't see very often.
The Ohio State quarter coach Ryan Day talked about what
it's like that feeling of losing to Michigan.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
We felt like, what it's like to not win his
game and is bad. It's one of the worst things
that's happened to me in my life, you know, quite honestly,
other than losing my father and a few other things,
like it's quite honestly, for my family, the worst thing
that's happened, so we can never have that happen again.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Ever. Wow, that's game time with Ryan Day. PAULI do
have the biggest point spread between these two.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Point spread history really only goes back to nineteen sixty nine,
where you could have a definitive. Ok, this is the
biggest underdog Michigan has been in any game since nineteen
sixty nine. That's a long time, the biggest spread in history. Man,
Michigan was a seventeen point underdog to Ohio State in
(02:49):
both nineteen sixty nine and nineteen ninety six. They won
both games.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Outright, Oh Michigan ooh steat of the day, stat of
the day? Best stead of the day stat of the day?
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Here comes that what stat of the day?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Coming up? Will have the most must win game of
the weekend? Also, Fritzi will have his Thanksgiving Day sports names.
It is a holiday tradition around here. Eight seven seven
three DP show. We'll get some more phone calls coming
up and pull question for the final hour of the
program seton what are you gonna whip up here?
Speaker 6 (03:26):
Let's see right now we got which game will get
the highest TV ratings. That is crazy. Giants Cowboys are
very much in last place. Bears, Lions and Dolphins Packers
are pretty much split right down the middle.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I have to believe the Cowboys are still going to
get eyeball Cowboys and the Giants. I know that the
Dolphins and the Green Bay Packers is spicy the Bears
Lions divisional rivalry, but I don't know people still tune
in to watch the Cowboys either win or lose.
Speaker 7 (03:57):
Yes, Marvin, you know what, America, Because here's the thing.
The game starts at four point thirty. That's gonna be
prime nap time, and no one's gonna make it appointment
viewing because the Cowboys and the Giants, neither of them
are very good.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Okay, speaking of the Cowboys, if you're a fan of
the Dan Patrick Takes a Gamble Podcast, and I'm not
guilty of hyperbole, yesterday we taped this week's Dan Patrick
Takes a Gamble Podcast. It blew me away. It was
as wild. It's wilder than any episode we've ever done.
(04:35):
I'm just gonna warn you it's we do talk about games, gambling.
You know what the picks are with the guys. But
it has to do a whole lot with Shay and
what's going on in his life. He shared an awful lot.
So you get a chance, you want to listen to.
Dan Patrick takes a gamble. Marvin, you were there, you
(04:57):
were an ear witness.
Speaker 7 (04:58):
You're not exaggerating. It was crazy. It started out crazy
and it just kept going.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Yeah, when bad Larry is giving Shaye and Irving marital advice,
that'll give you an idea. And Dylan, who's not even married,
was giving Shae marital advice. At one point, Shay says
his wife played a clip from the podcast in therapy
(05:24):
with their marriage counselor.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
Yes, seen did bead Larry's advice for Shay start with
not calling your wife and mother of your children the roommate.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
That did come up. It did come up. Yeah, yeah,
that comes up in then therapy couple's therapy counseling. But
she did. And I don't know if did the therapist
need to have approval? Well, his wife actually played the clip,
so I don't know if Shay's wife roommate got permission
(05:57):
to you. Now, I don't want to add to what's
going on there, but oh my god, Shaye read a
letter on their on the air to the therapist. He
had to write, Okay, I can't even put it in context.
You have to listen to it. Go to Danpatrick dot com. Uh,
not with kids in the car. But it is a
(06:20):
wild If this was at Disney, it would be the
craziest ride. What's what's that ride? Is it the Arrowsmith
ride where you're up and it's a free fall?
Speaker 8 (06:33):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Tower Tear, Tower Tair. That would be this on steroids
that yesterday when we taped it. It's the Tower of Tear.
Got a lot of specials at Danpatrick dot com. I'm
telling you. So we got moon Yeah, we got Moonshine.
We have limited quantities of all of that. We got
(06:54):
the flannels. We also have the calendars as well, alan Al.
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (07:03):
Good morning Dan.
Speaker 10 (07:05):
I was calling in because I got a couple things
to say. I was hoping that the GM of the
Atlanta Braves, Alexandropolis, could work his magic and somehow sign
Paul Schemes and Blake Snell and add them to Chris Sayle,
Spender Strider and Spencer Swaddenbach and our starting rotation could
(07:25):
be nicknamed the s Train and we could just roll
over everybody, but the course of Dodgers getting richer when
they're already rich and ruin that for me. Second, the
person that I'd most like to knock the stuffing out
of even though the regular season has knocked him down
a few pegs, I still think smug Aaron Rodgers could
be knocked out a few more pegs.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Thank you, el and happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
Craig and fort Wayne II.
Speaker 11 (07:52):
Craig, good morning, math teacher day off, love it, Thank you.
Big Ten Football loses to Oregon and the Big Ten
championship two losses, Penn State one loss, Indiana one loss,
only two get in who's in?
Speaker 9 (08:08):
Thank you well.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Indiana doesn't have a great resume, they have a great story.
Penn State the same, Ohio State. See, these conference championship
games are going to go They're going to do something.
This is just a cash grab for colleges, for conferences,
and it's going to impact your better teams getting in
(08:31):
to the playoffs. And I think they'll somehow either add
more playoff spots. Okay, look how long it took college
football went kicking and screaming to get to four. Now
they're going to twelve. You know, We talked to Andy
Staples last hour and he said they're probably going to
fourteen teams next year. I mean, this is crazy. You
(08:53):
want to talk of, you know, getting in the hov lane.
Easy pass there Dan in La, Hey Dan, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 8 (09:03):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (09:04):
Uh yeah, Dan, pre Thanksgiving six foot and a pre
Thanksgiving hard dad body one eighty two. There it is.
I want to give a nod to the Minister of
Humor and fellow Denver Bronco fan Todd Fritz just just
not happy Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
Todd.
Speaker 12 (09:25):
You know, watch out for that ozembic. It might get
you anyway. Three two things for you. If me and
Todd's bo Nicks, if they had to redraft two day,
would bo Nicks be potentially the number one draft pick
over Paully's Caleb and uh you know my wife's Jade
and Daniels slash.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
It's jayde and Daniels. Jade and Daniels would go number one.
I'd still have Caleb Williams go number two and bo
Nicks and Drake May that'd be a coin toss. Bo
Nix has done a really really good job. Here's the
thing that I hope doesn't happen, but I think it'll
happen when you tune in and you are banking on
(10:08):
bo Nicks coming up big, and then he doesn't, and
then it'll kind of do away with what has been
a really good rookie season. Drake May has played well
in spots for a bad team. Caleb Williams, if you
look at the last eight or nine games, has played
pretty well. Jade and Daniels, I know, playing with an injury,
(10:29):
but you know Jade Daniels would be the number one pick.
All right, Todd, do you have your Thanksgiving sports names?
We also have the most must win game of the weekend?
Which one do you? Which one do you want to?
Should we do? PAULI, let's let's say Thanksgiving names for
all save.
Speaker 8 (10:45):
We're actually extra special this year.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
I previewed them.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Okay, how about the most must win game of the weekend?
Music please thank you? Todd? The most must win game
of the weekend.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
If they're laying an against the Titans in Houston, I'm
going with the Texans at seven and five. I must
win at the two and nine Jaguars clean things up
in a very tight AFC playoff race.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Each Cheaton the mm W got.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
W EMMW got w Yes, I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Give you two. Can I do that?
Speaker 5 (11:16):
Sure?
Speaker 9 (11:16):
Why not?
Speaker 6 (11:17):
The forty nine ers absolutely must win. Ohio State absolutely
must win. That is a If Ohio State does not
win this weekend, Ryan Day should be fired. Wow, fair
one hundred percent, you should be. As soon as that
clock strikes zero, somebody should walk over and say, can
I take this off of you please?
Speaker 2 (11:35):
We'll send you stuff back, Marvin. The most much win
game of the weekend Alabama.
Speaker 7 (11:42):
If they don't beat Auburn, who's down this year, they'll
have four losses.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
That is no good for missus de Borg.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Paulie.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Wow, those are scalding hot, by the way, those last two.
I'm gonna go with the Tennessee Volunteers sitting at eight.
They have a playoff spot. If they lose to Van Dey,
they're out and another SEC team is in. So you're
not only leaving the playoffs, you're letting another win in.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
I'm going to say the Ravens against the Eagles. The
Ravens are favored by three against the Eagles. Got to
win this game. Got to win this game because now
you're not going to have home field advantage. You had
that last year. You don't have that. Are you going
to be able to win on the road a couple
of times in the playoffs? So I would say that
(12:28):
would be my most must win. The Steelers against the
Bengals is kind of The Steelers are getting three against
the Bengals. That's kind of interesting. And I'd probably throw
in the Chargers as well. They play against the Falcons.
Chargers are favored, but kirkt Cousins, maybe he brings them
(12:48):
back to life here because they could certainly use a
little boost here. Winston in Puerto Rico, Hey Winston, what's
on your mind? Hey?
Speaker 13 (12:58):
Dan?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
How are y'all great?
Speaker 10 (13:00):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (13:01):
Five?
Speaker 8 (13:01):
Seven one sixty five?
Speaker 14 (13:03):
Very soft?
Speaker 12 (13:04):
Soft?
Speaker 5 (13:06):
Too soft?
Speaker 8 (13:08):
What a call?
Speaker 13 (13:08):
He also also a proud member of the Dead Dad,
Dead Mom, Dead Dog, Dead Everything Club and also calling
to talk about South Carolina. I feel like they're not
getting any respect. What are your thoughts on if they
be Clemson by more than ten? I mean, they got
to put them in right.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
You know, I can't put myself in the room with
the committee because I don't I don't know what matters.
Every time I think I know what matters, I realize
that it doesn't matter. Or depending on what time of
the year. When you lose, how do you lose, where
did you lose by? How many you won, where did
you win, how much did you win by? I have
no idea. I always go back to this. I've said
(13:52):
this many many times. These are TV shows. The playoffs
are to get ratings TV shows, to get fans to
go to games, to fill up all of those stadiums.
That's why you have home games because of the extra
playoff games. They want to make sure if your fan
base goes on the road that they're selling out or
(14:13):
they're bringing their fandom, so you do have a sellout.
That's why you have home games. You're guaranteed to have sellouts.
It looks big, it is big. It's important. March Madness
the same thing TV show, but with the twelve team playoff,
maybe more so of a TV show. Yes, Tom, I
(14:33):
had a couple of.
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Corny Thanksgiving jokes if you want to humor me, if
there's time, sure, very very brief only absolutely what penalty
are football players allowed to commit only on Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Only on Thanksgiving you can commit this penalty?
Speaker 5 (14:51):
Is it?
Speaker 6 (14:53):
Jellum holding? Jellum holding?
Speaker 8 (14:58):
The judges were looking for like.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
We got Home.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
Yes, the judges are looking for us. Stuffing the passer.
Stuffing the pastor is allowed only on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 14 (15:13):
That's why they're corny jokes.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
What's the most popular play to run on Thanksgiving? M
it would be the Wishbone?
Speaker 6 (15:25):
M Okay, okay, yeahshbone.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
But the Wishbone is a is a formation.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
Yeah, but it's still kind of a play. You got
to get in the formation to run the play. Play
can't just happened without the formation. Why should the rest
last one? Why should the refts blow the whistle if
you ate too much and refuse to consume any more
mashed potatoes or yams? Why should the rest blow the
whistle for that? If you just can't or won't eat
anymore mashed potatoes or yams?
Speaker 14 (15:47):
What's the call?
Speaker 8 (15:51):
You're off sides?
Speaker 14 (15:54):
That was clever?
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Off sides, Katie?
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Anymore mash potatoes? Yea, so you're off sides.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
I just want to I just want to point out
that all of these are very clever. All of these
are an exact just why you are so great?
Speaker 8 (16:07):
Can they be clever and not funny? I guess because
you guys weren't really laughing. It was like, oh, I
get it off side. You're offside dishes.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
You're off side dishes. Yeah, you're offside.
Speaker 8 (16:15):
It's my problem with my humor though. I'll make like observations,
but what it's supposed to be observational humor the humor part.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Are you done? You're done?
Speaker 8 (16:21):
Yeah? Stuffing the past of the wishbone and you're off
sides it.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
The only person clapping is your back back the front.
Speaker 8 (16:31):
They're not clapping rigorously, but that's clapping going on rigorously.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I don't think I've ever been accused of clapping rigorously.
Speaker 8 (16:42):
Don't watch Massed Potatoes for me. I'm off side.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
The rest of the night is awesome. I'm thankful for you.
I'm going to use that tomorrow.
Speaker 14 (16:49):
I hope you do.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Yeah, you know what tonight? I think I'm gonna say
it tonight.
Speaker 14 (16:52):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (16:53):
I can't wait. H Kenny Maine, Will John is coming
up talk about his documentary Whiffle Ball, and Todd will
have his Thanksgiving Day sports names as well. Back after this.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Kenny Manski, former ESPN Sports Center anchor, now a current
SportsCenter anchor, I believe, and he has a documentary on
Fubu Sports. It's called Wiffleball, and Kenny joins us. Now,
first of all, let's clear up, what is your job
description now with ESPN?
Speaker 15 (17:37):
I'm unemployed, But next time somebody hires me, I'm employed.
That's where I'm at right now. No, they let me
on last Friday, Okay, to promote just like you aren't,
thank you for I know you're probably desperate for guests
the day before Thanksgiving. I was happy to fill that role.
I made a silly little movie. Really it's a long video,
(17:58):
but it sounds cooler to call it a film. And
I've been asking old friends, and you guys are kind
enough to let me come out here and promote what
I'm doing. But they put me on Sports Center last
Friday as a favor to promote my movie.
Speaker 9 (18:09):
That's all. It was a one off.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Oh okay, I thought you came back and then you
were going to be a sports center Would you come
back right now? If offered how much and how many
let's say, they said you had to do fifty sports centers.
Speaker 9 (18:27):
Are you negotiating for me?
Speaker 2 (18:30):
I will?
Speaker 15 (18:30):
I mean you have way more power. I mean I'm
like I said, I'm unemployed. I'm selling a movie. I
have a podcast deal. We're waiting on paperwork. I'm selling
greeting cards. I might sell my car. I don't want
to sell my house. We're doing okay, we're not doing
to go fundmeh okay.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
I to make sure you don't know it.
Speaker 15 (18:51):
Was, I will say it really was fun going back
for the one day. Like I know you've come back
once or twice. I think you and Keith. In fact,
I worked that night and it was cool. It was
great having you guys around and doing your thing, but
it's also feels a little weird because you've left. Now
you're back. They didn't know me. At the front gate.
The guy said, have you ever been here before?
Speaker 9 (19:11):
Do you know your way? Yeah, I'll figure it out.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
The same thing happened to me. Made me show ID
and I said I helped build this place, and then
he laughed, I go, I'm not joking. So he gave
me a visitor's pass that I wore on the air
with Van Pelt one night. I'm like, all right, I'll
just be a visitor here or yeah.
Speaker 15 (19:29):
I have the same thing when it comes to trying
to get credentials for different events. So like Seahawks were
at the Giants last year and my credentials said my
name and said other They didn't know what the hell
to call me.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
So in between jobs. All right, so tell us how
you decided that you were going to do a document
I call it a documentary. It is, yeah, documentary on
wiffle ball.
Speaker 15 (19:58):
Years and years ago, when I was in Seattle one
day when Ken Griffy was a rookie. He Harold Reynolds
and I went into a little feature story at the
Seattle Center, ended up throwing wiffleballs for speed on a
really chintzy little radar gun. And all these years I
bragged that I beat Griffy by one mile prior. In
my head, I still think I did. I think my
cameraman double clicked. And Griffy was at the Seattle Sports
(20:21):
Awards show two years ago and he brought it up,
so it's in his head from thirty odd years ago.
I was like, I'm going to make a dumb movie
about a It's really my love letter to wiffleball my childhood,
and then it morphs into can you believe I got
to throw whiffle balls against you know, the Willie Mays
of our era, And we tried to prove my point
(20:41):
that I beat.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Him, but was griffy cooperative with your documentary.
Speaker 9 (20:47):
He declined to be physically involved.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Still in his head, then.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
I think he knows I beat him. That's what I think, but.
Speaker 15 (20:55):
I don't care because he's legend in baseball in Seattle.
Getting to look at him at age nineteen throwing a
whiffle ball is just funny all by itself. We have
Ken Burns, fellow documentarian, he's in the documentary. We have
a science professor analyzing the tape. We have the president
of whiffle ball in Connecticut. You know, it's right down
(21:15):
there off Rout eight by you, And so we have
all these components. I really try to tell a real story,
like I really wanted to take that part seriously, but
yet do it in somewhat of a silly way.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And it's also an homage a love letter to the
city of Seattle as well.
Speaker 9 (21:30):
Oh for sure.
Speaker 15 (21:31):
I mean it starts with my Dick Williams joke. I'm
my second year of broadcast in Seattle. I'm local sports
reporter for this little station in Tacoma. And I said, Dick,
is it just me or if you had trouble purchasing
whiffleball equipment this spring? I'm thinking that's really funny, better
than the Thanksgiving jokes you guys just and Dick looks
at me like you wanted to kill me. And I'm like,
(21:53):
you know the plastic bat thing, and he's I know
what wiffleball is that? Your joke's not funny. Okay, let's
talk about your middle relief. How did how do they
stacking up hoose?
Speaker 16 (22:03):
Uh?
Speaker 9 (22:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 17 (22:04):
So?
Speaker 15 (22:05):
But no Mark sands for my best friend Broke Babruce
homeran record in one summer of whiffle ball. Those are
dogs barking in the back. I'm outdoors. Also, got some
construction noise. Now there's a dog fight. I just want
to be inside where our dogs might bark or Gretchen
with yell, go get crescent rolls or something, so I
matter on the place.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
It's quite a quite a spread you've got there is that?
Is that your Connecticut mansion or your Seattle mansion?
Speaker 15 (22:30):
Well, because you built ESPN and others of us got
to follow you and gain from that wind fault.
Speaker 9 (22:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (22:37):
No, we're in Connecticut, so I got remarried and and
our last of the four daughters just went to college.
It's just me and Gretchen here in West Starford. But
all the girls came back for Thanksgiving, so we're very
joyous about that.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Okay, you can find the documentary Whiffleball on Fubo sports
po bo fo boh, what did I say?
Speaker 9 (22:57):
Boo boo?
Speaker 15 (22:58):
You talked about the clothing line teen eighty three bobo.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
What's available now on demand.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
On fu Bo. Kenny Mainski joining us Live to the
Nation on the program. Do you know I thought of
that coming in you?
Speaker 15 (23:16):
You and Stuart Scott both had a funny way of
making me giggle right before the show would start. You
would always say Live to the Nation right before we
run the air, and it'd make you and Stuart always said,
let's get stupid. And each one had its own value
for loosening an audience.
Speaker 9 (23:32):
And your your co host.
Speaker 15 (23:34):
Do you remember your first Sports Center Yeah, it was
with Larry Beal. He was very gentle and guided me
through You're nervous as hell. The first one. You know,
I'm over there on ESPN two doing the sports smash,
and then now and then you know people needed to date.
Brett Haber is off today and here come I and
Larry's a sweetheart. I mean he guided me through a
(23:55):
little different than Kilbourne, who's like, thanks for joining us
from ESPN two. Can and what are you paradise now?
You're in charge of scheduling like you were good. You're
a little bit letterman like, though you don't like just
now you went away for six minutes. No hello before
just come live to the nation when it's time. You
(24:15):
don't want to get too close to the person your interview.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
No, no, I think it's easier that way. Sometimes you
leave your best stuff, you know, before you do the interview.
And although people might debate if we've left our best
stuff before the interview during this interview, but even doing
highlights that you know, there were no guard rails, we
basically got to the point where when Oberman and I
(24:41):
were doing we mocked ourselves doing the highlights because we'd
kind of run out of ways to be creative with highlights.
And I think you even mocked our mocking of our highlights.
Speaker 15 (24:54):
What I remember most about you is how quickly you
were out of the bild. Like you're saying about it.
The camera guy in the audio, where's down? He's got,
he's on the fire starter on his car. He's gone,
he's done. On the way to Stamford. He's halfway down. Rude,
But no, you were great to work with. Somebody asked
me just on one of my recent interviews, because remember
Keith left and then they had this try out thing
(25:16):
for three months. It was all weird, and somehow they
picked me out of the hat. And those were a
couple of good years.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Well, it was one of those that they put so
much pressure on me because Oberman left and they're like,
all right, and everybody in the building thought I was
picking who my co host was. And I said, I'm
going to do the show. You watched the show. Who
do you want to see on the show? And I
remember I didn't lose friendship, but I did lose Some
people were upset that maybe I didn't go to bat
(25:46):
for them or they should have been in there, but
I just said, hey, I didn't have anything to do
with it, which I didn't. And I remember when I
got a call. I was on a camping trip with
my son and Norby. Williamson said, hey, we're gonna go
with Kenny. I said, okay, I got to go back
to helping my son get his swimming badge, so you know,
I'll see you in a week.
Speaker 8 (26:07):
And that was it.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I didn't.
Speaker 14 (26:08):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
I didn't want to get involved in it because I
just thought, let management decide who they want in there
instead of me trying to bigfoot and say you know
who I want because it didn't matter because you were
following Keith and whoever that was was going to have
a lot of pressure on them. And I don't know
if you felt it, but you know that was surely
certainly what I was trying to factor in here.
Speaker 15 (26:31):
Thanks for picking me, so yeah, I mean Norby must
have got out voted, right. It must have been Walsh
and Vince and I don't know what the committee. Steve
Anderson was still there.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
So Norby didn't like you.
Speaker 9 (26:45):
I don't think he got me. I don't think he
disliked me so much as he just O.
Speaker 15 (26:49):
God, I wasn't serious enough to convey the giants Russian statistics.
Speaker 9 (26:55):
That week or whatever, like I thought.
Speaker 15 (26:58):
I didn't copy anybody, but I definitely modeled after what
you guys did, because you guys made it fun.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
You know.
Speaker 15 (27:03):
That's Bill Patrick was good, all sorts of people, Bob
Lee's sharp sense of humor, Charlie Steiner, on and on
and on.
Speaker 9 (27:09):
And it was supposed to be fun.
Speaker 15 (27:11):
We always took the serious things seriously if somebody, you know,
some serious matter, whatever it was, and the rest of
it was just fun. You're supposed to have fun. Guys
made a nice catch, say a selly lion, say a
home run call, Well, you know whatever, have fun.
Speaker 9 (27:24):
Still trying to have fun.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Well, the The Doctor football on Fubo Sport. It's it's
on demand. It's Kenny's Whiffleball documentary can be found on Fubo.
That's fu Bo Sports.
Speaker 9 (27:38):
And you did there.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Yeah, you see what I did. Finally got it for
the second time. You finally got it. F you Bo
highlights his journey to find out if he threw a
whiffle ball faster than Ken Griffy Jr.
Speaker 15 (27:53):
Take the Seahawks on the money line gambling problems. Thanks, Thanks,
like the Seahawks this week? Oh you do Seahawks money line.
Speaker 9 (28:05):
Straight up?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
All right? You know, I ate right back thank you.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Kenny.
Speaker 9 (28:09):
Who bos Wait, I'm done. I had like a half
I still got time plenty.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
We're done now.
Speaker 14 (28:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
I wanted to make sure that we you know, I
don't want to ruin everything and then everybody's going to go,
I've heard the story, get like I want them. This
a tease is what it is.
Speaker 9 (28:24):
Yeah, career, let's go.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
He's Kenny Kenny May. Thanks Kennys, Happy Thanksgiving to you
and the girls. Okay, that's it, We've done it. It's
Kenny May. Do you remember we did the sports Center
commercial where we did different countries and we had to
dress up changes and then we were it was Kenny Mainski.
We were Russian sports We were doing the sports Center
(28:51):
version in Russia, and then I think, uh, Mexico. I
don't know what other countries. There were like three of them. Oh,
I think we're wearing lee hosen for one of them.
But yes, I don't know what my name was. My
name Boris Patrick with Kenny Mainski, something like that. Yeah,
those commercials are still funny.
Speaker 9 (29:13):
They are.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
When we first started doing them and the folks from
Widen and Kennedy came in, they'd been working with Nike.
And they just observed for an entire week everything that
we did, where we parked, where we ate, everything we
did in between sports centers, and then they went back
and then they came back and they said, all right,
here are the commercials. But it still came down to
(29:36):
we couldn't get any athletes to come in and do
those commercials. Everybody want to get paid. And that's when
I reached out to Grant Hill and Jason Kidd and
I said, hey, would you come to ESPN you don't
get paid, and you'll be in your own Sports Center
commercial and they're like seriously. I said, we'll donate twenty
(29:59):
five hundred dollars to year favorite charity, and Grant Hill
played the piano in the lobby and Jason Kidd was
getting out of a helicopter handing his highlights to us
as if that's how we got the highlights, and then
we put those highlights together on Sports Center. But that's
how it started. And then once those aired, we had
every athlete who wanted to do it. But it was
(30:20):
a brilliant, brilliant campaign. Did you have a question, Todd comment?
Speaker 8 (30:25):
I do not.
Speaker 14 (30:26):
I just remember those commercials. I like when you walk
down memory lane.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
That was fun with Kenny, thank you. Yeah he was.
Speaker 14 (30:31):
He was.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Every time you got on the show, Like you never
knew with Kenny, but he had such a dry sense
of humor, and you were just you know. The hard
part back then was, I don't know how it is
now with Sports Center, but you want to compliment the
person you're with. So Bob Lee was kind of a
serious journalist, so I could have a little more levity.
(30:54):
With Oberman, he could be really serious, so I could
be lighthearted, or the other way around. With Kenny was
very dry, so I had to be a little more serious.
So you kind of had to compliment each other. And
because you couldn't have the same personality with two different
Sports Center anchors, it's just too much for an hour.
(31:15):
So you really had to pick your spots there to
compliment each other. And that was the tricky part.
Speaker 8 (31:21):
Yes, ton, I like when you say, like bo Jackson
