NFL officials, Dean Blandino. He works for Fox Sports. He'll

Speaker 3 (01:18):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Stat of the Day brought to you by Pannaani America,
the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Whole
question for the final hour of this Meet Friday, seat
and is going to be what dot hot uh?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Which can I see happening? More Bengals getting into a
wildcard where the Ravens winning the Super Bowl A Bengals
have about sixty percent of that vee.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Oh, okay, a little surprised at that. Well, winning the
super Bowl is yeah, but you're you're viewed as the second.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Actually I can say that, Okay, winning the super bowls
difficult to do.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I'm going to have to have a little larger sample
size on that. It looked into Jimmy Jimmerson there. You
know what, maybe we get a little Jimmy Jimmerson on
the Ravens chances to win the super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Right now, the Bengals are trying to figure out why
their record is so terrible when they're playing this. Well, yeah,
and winning the super Bowl is very difficult, thank you,
thank you, Jimmy.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Yeah, and that.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Could be making two point two seventy five million dollars
a year.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Dude, you could get a job at ESPN. I might.
I might by just being.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Jimmy Jimmerson being Yeah, my sources are telling me the
exact same thing that Adam Schefter's sources told him.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Jamar Chase had a night eleven receptions, two hundred and
sixty four yards, and three touchdowns. He had four hundred
and fifty seven receiving yards in two games against Baltimore
this season. Four hundred and fifty seven receiving yards. That's
one of those you're the secondary, you're the defensive coordinator.
(02:57):
Dean Peace, you know what's happening. There's nothing you could do.
You can't go wow, didn't know that guy was that good.
It's okay, Jamar's going to get the ball. We got
to make sure he doesn't get the ball that often,
and when he does, he doesn't score touchdowns. But the
big story was the officiating at the end of the game.
Certainly here is Zach Taylor, Bengals head coach.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
We got to find a way to close out these games.
You know, we had our opportunity. We got down there,
went for two and just didn't work out for us.
But this team's going to continue to put us in
good positions, and there's going to be a point in
the season where that turns and we'll respond the right way.
From this game. He got a one game season next
week against the Chargers before the buye, and so we'll
get our bodies right and get ready to go fight them.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah, you got Chargers, Bye week, Steelers. You got Steelers
twice in the last six or seven games of the season.
Dean Blandino, he's doing college and NFL games on Fox,
including Colorado, Texas Tech and the Falcons and the Saints.
Former head of officials for the NFL. You know, we
only call you when somebody's upset about something. Thanks for
(04:00):
joining us. Let's look at that play, that two point conversion.
What do you see and was it called correctly?
Speaker 6 (04:10):
Well no, it wasn't called correctly. You watch the contact
on Jasiki. I mean he's held And I went back
and watched the coaches film the All twenty two and
the back judge's who's in the middle of the field
and actually standing on the endline, is responsible for that action.
And the back judge actually reaches for his flag and
there's a mechanic where you see the action, you see
(04:32):
the hold, and then you find the football and if
the ball is out somewhere else already, then then there's
no flag because the theory is there's no impact on
the play.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
And the back judge looked.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
And Burrow was kind of the in the process of throwing,
and I think that's why he didn't throw the flag.
But it's early enough where that's clearly a hole it
should have been called. And then you go to the
contact on Burrow. I mean it's it's forcible contact to
the headneck area. There's no there's no way around it.
Referee looks to be in good position, just just either
(05:05):
felt it wasn't enough, didn't see it, but it's a foul,
and you know the Bengals should have had another shot
at it.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But can officials do they let's say, somebody sees it
or can you gather can you get I mean, it
doesn't happen very often, Dean, And I don't know if
it's because of pride, professional pride of hey, I didn't
see it, or I didn't see it that way, or
you know, whatever it might be. I would think collectively,
we have to get this right. Whether you got it
(05:36):
right or not, we do.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
No doubt and pride. Pride goes out the window. They don't.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Nobody wants the game to be officiated perfectly more than
the officials. And we know perfections not a not a
reasonable expectation. But yeah, they get together. You know the
contact on Burrow, the umpire is the other official and
in addition to the referee, who could see that. And
if the umpire season and says, hey, yeah I've got
(06:02):
contact to the headneck area, Okay, great, let's let's drop
a flag. Or if another official I think at the
goal line, you're going to have one set of eyes
on each of those receivers, so there's going to be
less help in that action. But yeah, absolutely you want
them to get together. If somebody sees something a different.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Way, okay, But do you see a point where we
start with the final two minutes where we're there's a
you know, the eye in the sky is able to say, guys,
you miss this, let's clean this up. Like, do we
get to that point where this is what we're going
to do, and let's say we just start out with
a final two minutes, we're.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Heading in that direction.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Absolutely, you look at the couple weeks ago, right, Sam
Donold Thursday Night, we don't get the face mask in
the end zone, big play safety, So yeah, we're headed
in that direction.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
I think the Competition Committee has.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Always taken a more measured approach, and right now there's
some situations when there's a flag down, play can assist.
I think we're going to see I don't know when,
if it's next year, if it's three years, five years,
we're going to see somebody up there that's going to say, hey,
and the last two minutes is a perfect, perfect starting
place or is it scoring plays as the turnovers because
(07:14):
officials aren't perfect. There's one hundred and fifty to one
hundred and fifty five plays a game. Overwhelming number of
decisions are correct, but there's four or five plays that
really affect the outcome, that decide the outcome, and you
got to be perfect on those plays, and a lot
of them happen in the last two minutes. So yeah,
it's a great starting place, and I think that'll be
an off season discussion with the committee for sure.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I never understood this with the NBA, that the star
players would get calls or the benefit of the doubt,
because I always thought they're the stars. They don't need
the benefit of the doubt. It's the guy who's the
ninth man on the bench. Do Mahomes gets, you know,
preferential treatment because he's Patrick Mahomes. Did Brady get preferential
treatment because he was Tom Brady? And if so, why?
Speaker 6 (07:58):
I think that's a perception. I really do high profile. Look,
Tom Brady probably the greatest of all time. Patrick Mahomes
on his way there. So there's going to be more eyeballs,
there's going to be more attention. Whether they get the
call they don't. But when you look at the numbers,
and I don't know the numbers this year, but whenever
we did that, whenever we did a deep dive, it
(08:20):
wasn't that Tom Brady's or the Peyton Mannings, you know,
or the Patrick Mahomes that were getting all the calls.
Speaker 7 (08:27):
It was more even imbalanced.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
And you know, look, there's there's kind of this perception
that Joe Burrow doesn't get those calls. You know, I
read today that he needs to start arguing more, he
needs to start complaining more. I don't officials don't the
good ones that doesn't affect them. They want to get
it right, And it doesn't matter if it's Tom Brady
or if it's a you know, a backup quarterback that's
in the game. So yeah, I think that's more perception.
(08:52):
I don't think that's reality. But look, sometimes perception becomes reality.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, but Brady jawing at you and you're an official,
that does it impact?
Speaker 7 (09:01):
It could go one or two ways, because I've I've
heard officials that said, you're not going to get that.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
The more you jawed me, the more I'm gonna I'm not,
you know, like, oh this guy, like all right, shut up.
You know I and I work with Tom now and
I love him and he's he's a sweetheart. I can't believe,
I say, you used to complain a lot. That's not
what I'm getting from you today.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
What current rule do we have to do away with?
Speaker 7 (09:29):
Oh? You know, I don't.
Speaker 6 (09:31):
I just I honestly think today and I never would
have said this ten or fifteen years ago, I think
it's what we're talking about. I think it is giving
the officials, giving somebody the opportunity to help correct some.
Speaker 7 (09:43):
Of these mistakes, and I use mistakes, you know. I
think it's just lack of a better term, because the
game is so fast.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
But Dean, we keep hearing we need to make them
full time. Like what does being full time? Your eyesight
doesn't get better? And like you missed that call.
Speaker 7 (09:59):
That call happened.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
That call is missed whether they're full time or not.
And then during this season they are as full time
as anybody else. They spend hours upon hours upon hours
looking at film. You're never going to prevent that that call.
You know, you're gonna have situations where they miss calls.
I don't think it's full time. I think we've gotten
to the point where the technology is so good and
it can be seamless, where if you and I are
(10:21):
sitting up there and I go, oh man, we just
missed a hit on the quarterback. Hey guys, put a
flag down. I think that's where we're headed. I think
we got to get there. I think it has to
be limited. You can't. What we don't want is somebody
reofficiating every aspect of everything.
Speaker 7 (10:35):
You can't do that.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
True, it's always great to talk to you. One of
these days we'll have you on and we'll just you know,
talk to now, you know, just.
Speaker 7 (10:42):
Say hey again of officiating. Love to talk to you. Dean,
how's the family one day?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Congratulations on your Dodgers too.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Oh thanks Dan.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
It's Dean Blandino, Fox Sports, NFL college football rules analyst,
and he'll be doing all the college games NFL games Fox,
including Colorado, Texas Tech and Falcons and the Saints Fretzi.
One of these days we'll just book Dean and I'll
just say, Dean, how you doing, And then he'll say fine,
I'll go all right, Dean, just check it in with you.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Fight him to come to the pontoon boat and Maine
have a barbecue. I don't know, sounds like he wants.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
To hang out with you, and it didn't know. It
didn't sound like wants it to be more than just
he see that miss call. It didn't sound like no,
if he hung out with me, realized why he didn't
want to hang out with me.
Speaker 8 (11:27):
Yes, Marmon, is Brian Costello on that list too? That
covers the Jets. We never reach out to him when
something's going well.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Well, Let's face it, most of the time when we're
reaching out to somebody, something bad has happened. Getting fired.
Playing well is not any fun, right. We're like the
Lakers are interesting because they're losing now. The Bucks are interesting,
they're losing now. The Sixers are interesting. They're losing now.
Is Joe Burrow going to be Dan Marino not get
(11:57):
to another Super Bowl?
Speaker 9 (11:58):
Yes, Paul, Dean Blandino sen It like he'd be a
great stories over beers guy, because right now he can't
tell us everything working.
Speaker 10 (12:05):
For the league head of officials.
Speaker 9 (12:07):
But like when he's semi retired and have a few
beers in him, I'll bet he's got some good ones.
Speaker 10 (12:11):
M Commissioner's office.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Maybe New Orleans. Oh, we're down there, Hey, Dean, I'm
about a beer or two, so tell me about Belichick there.
But I can't imagine an official where Tom Brady is complaining,
where the official goes, Hey, you're not going to get
that called like, you can't. You can't react that way.
You're tired of Tom, you know, chewing your ear off complaining,
(12:35):
but you can't be Hey, I'm going to teach you
a lesson. I'm not going to call that roughing the passer. Yeah, Paul,
do you think.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
A few guys or officials, Let's say you're an official
and you're a fifty year old and you're living in
a suburban town. If you go to like a cocktail
party in songa, So what do you do for a living?
Would you not want to tell them what you did
for a living? Bunch of guys at a cocktail party
and be Pepperwick questions.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
I probably just wear my fel siating shirt. Bring the whistle, Yeah,
I bring the whistle. I have the hat on. Yeah,
I'd have a really tight shirt on. The ladies would
like that? I would you like to call me for
a holding? Yes, Tom, I'm.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
All about that. I would totally werit one of those.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Ti I'm sure you who the whistle, throw a.
Speaker 11 (13:21):
Flag and say something cheezy like I had to call
a flag on your you're too hot for this room
with penalty fifteen yards.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
No, no, you see this gets into fantasy world. Yeah,
it goes quickly. It goes quickly right into that. Yeah,
see exactly. Yeah, this is my great from was that
this week? Last week? I don't remember, last year, ten
years ago, twenty years ago. Todd can make a left
turn on the four oh five from the right lane
(13:47):
and go all the way over to the hov line,
and you can do it in the span of you know,
twenty seconds. Pretty amazing, Like what's in your mind is
kind of remarkable.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Now, don't have to go on a separate chant.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
It's scary, Yes it is, Yes.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Although I do bet if you're like at that cocktail
party and somebody reaches for something and you're like, well,
that's offside. Everything is a pun about being in Yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Well hey Caroll, we're gonna call roughing on that one.
If you know what that reaching you what I mean, Sally,
h hands to the face, Sally, Come on, ah, look
at Tommy over there.
Speaker 9 (14:26):
Yes, Paul, that would be brutal because you know, guys
like us, you get it when you go to parties
and there's football. What do you think of the Ravens
this year? But if you're a ref and you're with
a bunch of dudes at a party, just get beat senseless.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
All right, we'll come back. We're going to regroup to
meet Friday. Morale is high, and we'll get to your
phone calls. Coming up. We also have the most must
win game of the weekend coming up. We're back after this.

Zach and des Monet joins us on the program. Hi, Zach,
what do you have for me?
Speaker 12 (15:25):
Zach?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Hey? Dan, Hey, sorry about that, Thanks for giving.
Speaker 13 (15:28):
Me a callback. Yeah, yeah, Zach from Iowa. Third time, longtime,
heavier than last time. I thought it was kind of
interesting that when you had dinon then asking the former
pool question of whether he thinks ref should blow or
swallow it. But you know, they were moving on from that, uh,
(15:50):
going on the potentral road trip out to Iowa, looking
around and bouncing between the stations. We're gonna throw out
and offer to you guys my wife's family. So I
guess my family has an Iowa state tail getting bus
that I would personally take the week off of to
charter you guys around the state in May with one caveat.
(16:11):
My wife is due with our first kid May twelfth,
so if it happens to you know, come to D Day,
I'll have to take off and you guys can hang
on to the bus for the rest of the week.
But if it's a better date, maybe you look at
next year September sixth, Iowa state versus Iowa. I don't know,
just a thought be a great one, he names Iowa.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
All right, all right, you know what, we'd probably do
it after the baby's born. But yeah, I was wondering
maybe over the summer we'd take a road trip to Iowa.
Just drive around. We have a lot of radio affiliates
around there, or you know, we'd just sailoat everybody, do
a meet and greet and let pritty hug everybody. Brent
(16:53):
in Connecticut, Hi, Brent, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 14 (16:56):
Want everybody going back?
Speaker 15 (16:58):
Last hour Max to Staton pretty good ext week last
week you grew across Patrick twice this year. And if
we're going to Iowa, I recommend going Latemer early fall
six feet tall.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
All right, thank you, Brent, bad connection there, Yeah, seton.
Somebody sent me.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Uh now, this could either be a great idea or
the fastest way to possibly kill a road trip through
Iowa for you. I'm not it's going to be one
of the two, or maybe somewhere in the middle.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Option.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
But somebody sent me a bike trip across the state
of Iowa. It's many many Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah. We were trying to get from point A to
point B in the span of a couple hours. Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
But what if it was over many hours and many
miles and it's it's a seven day bike trip that
goes across the state of Iowa.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
No, No, I don't know how to say. It's like
rag no bray ray.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
If they're electric bikes, maybe, okay, what if it's what
if we use an electric bike?
Speaker 2 (18:00):
No? Still know. What if we go there at the
same time as this and.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Like somebody who like, we do a bet and that
person has to do the bike trip?
Speaker 2 (18:10):
No, but then no, okay I did. I did my
bike trip from Atlanta to New Orleans. What if we
all go but I do the bike trip if you
would like to do that.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
But I just.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Martins with me too. He just said he's in Okay,
So if we do, we're gonna be We're gonna be.
Oh sorry, I thought you said that you were My bad,
My bad. No, We're gonna be somewhere on Monday and
then we'll do the show and then we'll drive a
couple hours to you know another one of our radio affiliates.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Even better, it would be from July nineteenth to July
twenty sixth, which Hello, somebody's birthday week.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
No, it's still not selling it. Somebody's birthday week? Jack
and Phoenix, Hi Jack, what's on your mind?
Speaker 16 (18:57):
Dandy?
Speaker 17 (19:00):
You meet Friday?
Speaker 16 (19:00):
Got on a road trip. I did forget Iowa. Let's
roll from the Man Cave all the way down to
New Orleans and I'll put my job and be the driver.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Well, we want to stop at a lot of our
radio affiliates, so we thought if we just located, you know, Iowa,
and then we said, all right, maybe we could drive
around and go to five different cities five days and
just say hello, spread the love of the DP show,
go door to door and just let him know why
they should listen or watch this show. Mike and Wisconsin,
(19:31):
and then we'll bring you the mm W got w
Hi Mike than morn Fellas.
Speaker 17 (19:39):
Thanks for having me. Dan, I've got some inside information
source close to me. He's actually a chef in the
Green Bay area. Jordan Love and some of the packers
were in this week and he got to chat with them,
and obviously they have a bye this weekend, but he
said then that Jordan Love said quote, he really wants
(20:00):
to win next week.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Thank you, thank you. We got amateur Jimmy Jimmerson's around
the league helping us out with the obvious. All right,
it's time the MMW got W which is the most
must win game of the weekend?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Todd at three and five and having dropped three straight.
Speaker 11 (20:22):
The Cowboys but have a strunk showing at home against
their division rival Eagles and find a way to win.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
That game, or if they are done done, they give him.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
A fourth round pick for Trey Lance. I would think
at some point you would want to see if he
can do anything. You got Dak, you know who's sidelined
for at least a month, unless once they're out of
the playoffs, maybe a play You know what you have
with Cooper Rush. He's thirty one years of age and
he's going to be economical. He'll be a game manager
for you. Try not to make any mistakes, Seaton, MMW
(20:50):
got W.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Well, I there's a fairly obvious MMG ot WOTW in
college football. Okay, stay away from that one. Sick with
the NFL. I think the Bears must win this weekend
against the Patriots.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Man, can you imagine if Drake May outplays Caleb Williams.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Bears are on a two game losing streak. Their coach's
seat is on fire. It's an inferno right now. And
when you look at the rest of their schedule, their
home against New England, but then they have Green Bay, Minnesota,
the Lions, the forty nine Ers, Minnesota, Detroit again, Seattle,
and this might be the last game they win this season,
(21:31):
possibly the Bears if they don't win this one. If not,
they're going to close the season out just in miserable shape.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Bears apologist Pauli.
Speaker 9 (21:40):
I'm prepared to debunk this because if you're a Bears
fan who wants a new head coach and doesn't want
Matt Eberflus, it's most must lose game of the weekend,
because then at the writing's on the wall, as.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
They saw, that might be a last thirty minutes poll question.
Is this weekend's Bears game must win or must lose?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Yeah, Marvin, most must win game of the weekend the.
Speaker 8 (22:03):
New York Jets. They're at the Arizona Cardinals this weekend.
They have to you know, after that they got the Colts,
the Seahawks, the Dolphins, the Jaguars. They can go on
a little run, but it's got to start this week.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
That's what I was going to say the Jets as well. Okay, Pauli,
this is a weird one. The eight ranked Indiana Hoosiers.
They're nine to oh they're hosting Michigan. Not only do
they have to win this because they have Ohio State
next week, they have to win big. They have to
pound Michigan on national TV in order to afford a
loss next week to Ohio State stay in the playoffs.
(22:35):
You must It's a must pound situation.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yes, must pound ye and ps, yes.
Speaker 10 (22:41):
You've been doing that one for your must pound situations.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Must pound. Uh. I would say the Jets, I think
that's most must win, but I can also say that
about the Cardinals, like, you got to win these games
if you want to stay in the mix. There, most
must win. It's a most must win for both of
these teams. David in all I own. Then we have
Todd doing his Sports centerchees Hi David.
Speaker 18 (23:05):
Hey Dan, happy uh, Happy meet Friday. I got a
comment about the calendar and then the game last night.
Guys were talking about the Raven's uniforms. It kind of
looks like the bag that goes over the crown royal.
Uh like liquor you ever seen that? And uh on
the calendar, Toob was talking about how he's mister May
(23:27):
are you sir, he's not September?
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (23:33):
September? Very nice, very nice? Now you own the month
of May. That that is a great picture of you.
In fact, when I saw it, I checked with the
French kid. I said, did you did you photoshop doctor this?
He said no. I said, day all right, Ton, But
we uh took famous sports movie posters and then we
(23:55):
made those our own. So there's a lot of fun
in there, and you're they're available right now, Dan Patrick
dot com, I ton, here we go. It's it's time
for the Sports Center tease. Marvin coming up on Sports Center.
Speaker 11 (24:19):
They had the eye of the Tiger until a comeback
was purple traded. How the Ravens made the Bengals burrow
their face in the sand. Can the Men of Steel
get it done in DC? Or can a rookie the
Kryptonite make the.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Towels look terrible?
Speaker 11 (24:30):
Might the Cowboys turn things around in Big D Or
are they barklaying up the wrong tree?
Speaker 12 (24:33):
Will explain?
Speaker 11 (24:34):
Can Denver dust themselves off after getting bullied in Baltimore
and ruined the Chiefs undefeated season? Or will Mahomes and
company knicks that idea? Also stroud and proud? How the
Texans QBA plans to tame the Lions Sunday Night? From
Lions to Tigers? Will LUSU make the Tige turn in
Death Valley? You don't want to miss this one. Can
the Dogs make the Rebels stay in their lane? They're
chomping at the bit? Can the Gators really hooked the Horns?
We're happy you're hooked on us sports.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
In the next I'm gonna I'm gonna say, all right, clean,
Uh you over wrote?
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Uh that could have taken at least one line.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Yeah, then yeah, because then you can emphasize some things.
It just felt like you were going like that at
the very end of it, and it was well written.
Thank you. You know when they do those disclaimers like
I'm less apt to buy something when they were like,
here's this product, then all of a sudden.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Because yellowing of the eyes are in excessive bleeding prohibited? Yeah,
remember FDIC.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
My favorite one is the depression medication with the side
effects of potential suicide and depression, you think it would
counter back. Yeah, how are you going to know if
it was the medicine or just the what I'm trying
to treat.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
I just I'm already depressed. I have depression. Depression. Yeah,
you may be susceptible to depression.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
It's not for everyone. Ask your doctor, pharmacist.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
My favorite part of that was tot by the way
he had something like he was like, uh, will there
Ravens tonight will explain, there's something we'll explain.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
There they doos it will explain, We'll explain. Yeah, I
mean I don't know whill they were with it? Would
you update the poll results? By the way, when I
was walking in, I was checking on the meet Friday,
and I'm walking back to the studio and come over
to my side and Fritzy had dropped these Sports Center
(26:23):
tees on the floor.
Speaker 11 (26:24):
I thought that was passive aggressive. I actually dropped it. It
slipped out of it, so when.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I walked by, I was going to pick it up
because it was on the floor, and Tide goes, oh,
that must be my Sports Center tees.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Getting close to the end of the show you you
do win.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
You do remind me quite a few times.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
On the floor where you're going to walk.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Seat and update the pole results.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
This week's Bears game is must win, must lose. Right now,
seventy one percent have it as must win.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Yeah, you don't want if you don't want your coach,
you don't want to go on a run here and
then all of a sudden, it's like he's back again.
They've been a disappointment. Now do I think that the
expectations were sky high in Chicago? Yes, I do. It
wasn't you're gonna make the postseason. It was who are
we going to face in the postseason? Are we gonna
(27:15):
have a home game in the postseason. I thought that
they were a playoff caliber team. They have underachieved so far.
And Caleb Williams like it or not, these quarterbacks, when
there's a quarterback taking one and a quarterback taken two,
that's how we lump you in the rest of your careers.
May not be fair, but that's what we do, Yes, Paulin.
Speaker 9 (27:39):
Most must lose, you could also throw Giants versus Panthers.
The loser is in place for the number one pick
of the draft. That's in Germany in Munich.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
God, you I mean we can export anything NFL Wise,
you imagine you're over there in Germany and you're like, wait,
what NFL game we're getting? Hold on, Hold on yourself, Panthers, Giants,
Oh my god, we're so lucky.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
They're both two and seven. What if you just switched
it to seven and two and hoped they didn't look
it up?
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Even then, I wouldn't go. I still wouldn't want to
go to the game. Hey, they're both seven and two.
I am rooting for Bryce Young. I'm glad he's getting
another chance. I don't think it's, you know, totally his
fault when you when you have a quarterback who's in
and then you take him out and then you put
him back in. Like we've seen this before with other teams.
Give him a chance. You have nothing to lose except
(28:32):
for every game. But see if you have anything there.
If not, he'll be on another roster next year. Tony
and Iowa, Hi, Tone, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 19 (28:45):
Height?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Hey?
Speaker 19 (28:50):
Just a couple of things. One, ragbri is a fun
tradition in Iowa, going through the small town just seeing
the bikers come through. It is a ragbriy.
Speaker 14 (28:59):
Is a good time.
Speaker 17 (29:00):
So that's it.
Speaker 19 (29:02):
And I so want to just give a shout out
to NASCAR and NBC. NASCAR is the best coverage championship
for this weekend. Really looking forward to that.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Well, thank you, Tony. Yeah, I'm work shopping this, I
said to see and it'd be nice just to get
a sprinter van or bus. And we just acted like
we were a band starting out and we're just going
city to city. And I said, what about Iowa. We
have quite a few affiliates in the state of Iowa. Yeah,
(29:32):
that's our people right there. Yeah, Iowa. But you know what,
maybe maybe that's something we do next next spring.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
Des Moines one of the coolest places I've been to
in a while. Yeah, really, it's awesome, great city.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Well when you went to the super Bowl with the
French Kid, you stopped through Iowa, didn't you. I did? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
We spent the night in Des Moines, went to a
Drake game. They have their like famous for like the
relay races there, Oh, the Drake Relay. Yeah, the Drake relays. Yeah,
but they it's an awesome of a city, really cool place.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Michael in Louisiana. Hi, Mike, what's on your mind? Danny Michael,
Danny Michael.
Speaker 14 (30:09):
I thought this call would never come. Man, I've been
listening for twenty years. Thanks for finally giving me a shout.
Speaker 16 (30:14):
Man.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Yeah, glad to call you back.
Speaker 14 (30:18):
You guys do the most must win Oh, first time,
long time obviously five ten and a Church Hilly in
two sixty five. You guys do the most must win
Game of the week, but then we never hear about
it again. So I'm thinking on Monday, you should do
a most Must Win Game of the Week VP and
(30:40):
pick the MMW g OTWVP and tell us who was
the MVP from those games.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Wow, that's that's a lot of a lot of letterings.
Michael looking for a job.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
I think we could hire him today as a producer
here that type of mwg OTB MVP MVP.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Michael, thank you. I'll take that under advisement. How about
we take a break. That food smells too good, like
I'd like to start sampling it. I'm on, the food
is served, the food, are you going to try another
rendition of that? The food?
Speaker 3 (31:18):
I'm sure I got something in me to work out. Okay,
there's always time for another song. But you guys don't
want to hear that.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
So that was based off of the what one shining
moment or it was.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
That was the attempt anywhere? God it was they came
at us.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
The food is served, you know what, Maybe we play
that Marvin coming up next. But I remember when Todd
said he had a song and then I'm going why.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's like one dining moment.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
That's what I wanted the food. All right, we'll take
a break. If you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner,
we will show you our meat Friday. We're gonna show
you our meat and we'll come back. This day in
sports history. What we learned, what's in store for Monday?
Speaker 1 (32:01):
After this, 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 WAPP.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Last call for phone calls. What we learn? What's in
store tomorrow? Paulie wants to do the most unwatchable game
of the weekend. So we just did the most most
must win game of the weekend.
Speaker 10 (32:25):
This is the most unwatchable game that's not in Germany.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Oh okay, taking off the board. Whoa, I don't have
my list of games here.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
I'll run through and maybe you can grade. You guys
can grate out the watchability level. Okay, let's go early.
Patriots at Bears.
Speaker 10 (32:44):
Yeah, decent storyline, that's good.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Okay, like a four, I'm just gonna give you. Yeah,
or yeah, Bill's at Cults.
Speaker 10 (32:57):
Long Plausum.
Speaker 9 (32:59):
Yeah yeah, Broncos at Chiefe. Let's go to the objective time, Yeah, sure,
the kind of sure. Falcons at Saints.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
This is where the team that has the worst record
between the two always wins the game for some reason.
So I figured the Saints are going to win this game.
Speaker 10 (33:22):
Forty nine Ers at Buccaneers.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Yeah, yeah, that's Spacey McCaffrey spanks.
Speaker 9 (33:26):
Sure, Okay, Steelers at Commanders very much, that might be
one of the more wise Yeah yeah yeah, Vikings at Jaguars.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Yeah not really. I mean, there's nothing worse than the
Giants and Panthers. So US based games, Yeah, that's not good.
Speaker 10 (33:49):
And that same ilk Titans at Chargers, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Yeah, just because the Chargers playoff team. Yeah, I mean, look,
I'm I'm easy when it comes to Hey, this game's on,
all right, I don't want.
Speaker 10 (34:04):
It Eagles at Cowboys one of a late slip. Jets
at Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Yeah, I think so, because we're either going to go
then Jets maybe question Mark, or we're gonna go you
know Cardinals are for real.
Speaker 10 (34:20):
Last game Lions of Texas.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Let me see a couple of phone
calls in here. Dave in La, Hi, Dave, what's on
your mind today? Hey?
Speaker 16 (34:33):
Dan five nine A swoll one anyway, just want to
chime in as a longtime Angelino kind of a guy
from a Surinade. We're all in that group where we
like showtime, have a big, rich history with the Lakers,
and what's happening is just a travesty how lebron and
(34:56):
Rich Paul have kind of hijacked the entire team to
showcase Bronnie probably couldn't even get a double double in
the w NBA. It's just a joke. As far as
the brand, and so much of us are just really
not interested. You'd be amazed how many people are just
longtime Diard Laker fans are just boycotting the Lakers. As
(35:17):
far as I'm concerned, I don't want to spend it.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Time to go, but Brownie's already going to the G League.
Speaker 16 (35:24):
Yeah right, I'm saying, but just the whole, like I said,
the whole charade that they did, you know, coming into
the season and his game is sold out. They're talking about, oh,
he's playing the South Bay Lakers and everything, and yeah,
I like the kid. I'm not hating on the kid.
I would do the same thing, you know, in his situation.
It's just you know, it's just a if you would.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Do the same thing, then how can you criticize what
they're doing. Dave.
Speaker 16 (35:50):
Well, if I'm no, I would do the same thing.
If I'm the kid, I'm gonna take the job for sure.
But as the Lakers, I.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Mean, okay, hold on, See the problem is the over
coverage of this. Okay, you can blame these other shows
that they made more out of this. This was Lebron.
His son got drafted, and he wanted a moment where
he wanted to continue to play until his son was
going to go into the NBA. If it keeps Lebron
(36:17):
engaged and he's playing at a very high level. Just
coming off thirty nine points, Bron, He's going to the
G League. That's it. It's okay. He played thirteen minutes
he's not the reason why you've got a five hundred
record here. Okay, it's not him, and he's going to
(36:37):
the G League. Will he be back up? Probably at
Christmas time. In the meantime, they better get their act
together because you can't blame this on Bronni. How about
one dining moment that Fritzy gave us after the final four.
He made it one shining moment. He made it one
dining moment. Just a little bit here, Mark.
Speaker 12 (37:02):
The food is, meats are carved. You're drooeling with their
tessipation because you're so starved, you've locked sandwich years. They
don't see your taste buds glow all bad hard work.
Speaker 11 (37:22):
Well now it shows in one dining moment.
Speaker 12 (37:27):
It's all tasted wine. One dining moment. Stuff your face
but no wine.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Okay, I'm just I'm gonna remind the audience it's not
meant to be funny. That's the sad part.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
Of the scales, not off. Yes, the pounds pack on.
Speaker 11 (37:45):
You saill have just one more until the plates are gone.
Speaker 12 (37:51):
Now your jeans won't close.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
You're so great about this rendition of this, The little
vibrato that Todd has in his voice for this is
just really like ties it all together.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
It is just wonderful, wonderful Jackson in Virginia by Jackson.
Speaker 17 (38:11):
Hey, BP, how you doing today?
Speaker 14 (38:13):
Have you Friday?
Speaker 12 (38:13):
Well?
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Thank you Jackson.
Speaker 14 (38:16):
So Paully missed his pea bomb all the week? Caroline, uh,
last night and he.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
Missed, PAULI, your pea bombs have been pu.
Speaker 10 (38:28):
I didn't pick them last night. I don't think no.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Last week, the last couple of weeks you've wished.
Speaker 10 (38:33):
Yeah, I'm we.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
Gave you a lot of credit and then now we
have to give you some blames.
Speaker 10 (38:38):
It's the overall though. Bet if you bet all season,
you'd be okay.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Well, I'm going by what you've done recently. Nice spin there,
and then you feels like you've been backing off your
pea bombs because they haven't they've detonated. Do you have
a pea bomb this week? Are you making up one
right now? You didn't have you?
Speaker 10 (38:59):
No, I looked at the and I didn't love any underdog.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
Well, no, you can get a you can just get
your bet right, you know, a pea bomb can be
just Hey, I think this team's gonna win. They're gonna
come like Notre Dame. Is that a pea bomb that
they actually covered twenty six and a half?
Speaker 10 (39:16):
I would say no, I would say, but I'm not bombing.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
That's not your peeple.
Speaker 9 (39:19):
No, okay, I would get back on the Army first half.
Cover what happened last week with the Army. Their quarterback
had an illness nobody knew until a kickoff and he
was pulled. The starter was never started the game before. Okay,
let's get back on Army first hand.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
I don't think Army. Does Army play this weekend?
Speaker 10 (39:35):
They do Army North Texas.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Oh, and then they got a big game at Yankee
Stadium against Notre Dame. All right, let's go around the room.
What we learned on the program? Todd would you learn today?
Speaker 11 (39:47):
Dominique Foxworth says referee crals are like the weather, you
have no control over it, So shut up in dealer.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
See no Connor. What did you learn today?
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Dean Blandino wouldn't mind it called just to check.
Speaker 2 (39:56):
In and theos. Marvin would you learn today?
Speaker 3 (40:01):
You want to go on the road trip to Iowa?
Speaker 12 (40:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
I think it would be fun, you know, just kind
of a let's maybe go to houses, maybe have dinner
with some listeners. You know, how about that you can
win hosting us for guest. Yes, Paulie, would you learn
must lose game for the Bears. Thanks? I had a
lot of fun this week. I try to do better
(40:24):
next week for the entire gang. Have a great weekend, everybody.
Talk to you Monday.
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour on this Friday. Oh the time
flies when you're having fun. It's a meet Friday, and
it's really simple today. Chicken and sausage gumbo. Who has
it better than we do? The head, former head of
NFL officials, Dean Blandino. He works for Fox Sports. He'll
(00:23):
join us coming up. We only call him when somebody's
been wronged. When there's We never called Dean to say, hey,
everything's great, nobody's complaining about the officials. Dean, thanks for
joining us. All at eight seven seven to three.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
DP show email address, DP at danpatrick dot com, Twitter
handle a DP show Saturday, it's two primetime college football
matchups Florida State Notre Dame. Polly just told us that
the point spread is Notre Dame giving twenty six and
a half to Florida State. You can see that game
on NBC in PEACI plus Washington Penn State in a
(00:56):
Peacock exclusive. The calendars are out. They're available for you

We did a takeoff on sports movie posters and there

dominated the calendar and congratulations Todd. You look good with
(01:17):
your shirt off.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Stat of the Day brought to you by Pannaani America,
the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Whole
question for the final hour of this Meet Friday, seat
and is going to be what dot hot uh?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Which can I see happening? More Bengals getting into a
wildcard where the Ravens winning the Super Bowl A Bengals
have about sixty percent of that vee.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Oh, okay, a little surprised at that. Well, winning the
super Bowl is yeah, but you're you're viewed as the second.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Actually I can say that, Okay, winning the super bowls
difficult to do.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I'm going to have to have a little larger sample
size on that. It looked into Jimmy Jimmerson there. You
know what, maybe we get a little Jimmy Jimmerson on
the Ravens chances to win the super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Right now, the Bengals are trying to figure out why
their record is so terrible when they're playing this. Well, yeah,
and winning the super Bowl is very difficult, thank you,
thank you, Jimmy.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Yeah, and that.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Could be making two point two seventy five million dollars
a year.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Dude, you could get a job at ESPN. I might.
I might by just being.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Jimmy Jimmerson being Yeah, my sources are telling me the
exact same thing that Adam Schefter's sources told him.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Jamar Chase had a night eleven receptions, two hundred and
sixty four yards, and three touchdowns. He had four hundred
and fifty seven receiving yards in two games against Baltimore
this season. Four hundred and fifty seven receiving yards. That's
one of those you're the secondary, you're the defensive coordinator.
(02:57):
Dean Peace, you know what's happening. There's nothing you could do.
You can't go wow, didn't know that guy was that good.
It's okay, Jamar's going to get the ball. We got
to make sure he doesn't get the ball that often,
and when he does, he doesn't score touchdowns. But the
big story was the officiating at the end of the game.
Certainly here is Zach Taylor, Bengals head coach.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
We got to find a way to close out these games.
You know, we had our opportunity. We got down there,
went for two and just didn't work out for us.
But this team's going to continue to put us in
good positions, and there's going to be a point in
the season where that turns and we'll respond the right way.
From this game. He got a one game season next
week against the Chargers before the buye, and so we'll
get our bodies right and get ready to go fight them.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah, you got Chargers, Bye week, Steelers. You got Steelers
twice in the last six or seven games of the season.
Dean Blandino, he's doing college and NFL games on Fox,
including Colorado, Texas Tech and the Falcons and the Saints.
Former head of officials for the NFL. You know, we
only call you when somebody's upset about something. Thanks for
(04:00):
joining us. Let's look at that play, that two point conversion.
What do you see and was it called correctly?
Speaker 6 (04:10):
Well no, it wasn't called correctly. You watch the contact
on Jasiki. I mean he's held And I went back
and watched the coaches film the All twenty two and
the back judge's who's in the middle of the field
and actually standing on the endline, is responsible for that action.
And the back judge actually reaches for his flag and
there's a mechanic where you see the action, you see
(04:32):
the hold, and then you find the football and if
the ball is out somewhere else already, then then there's
no flag because the theory is there's no impact on
the play.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
And the back judge looked.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
And Burrow was kind of the in the process of throwing,
and I think that's why he didn't throw the flag.
But it's early enough where that's clearly a hole it
should have been called. And then you go to the
contact on Burrow. I mean it's it's forcible contact to
the headneck area. There's no there's no way around it.
Referee looks to be in good position, just just either
(05:05):
felt it wasn't enough, didn't see it, but it's a foul,
and you know the Bengals should have had another shot
at it.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But can officials do they let's say, somebody sees it
or can you gather can you get I mean, it
doesn't happen very often, Dean, And I don't know if
it's because of pride, professional pride of hey, I didn't
see it, or I didn't see it that way, or
you know, whatever it might be. I would think collectively,
we have to get this right. Whether you got it
(05:36):
right or not, we do.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
No doubt and pride. Pride goes out the window. They don't.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Nobody wants the game to be officiated perfectly more than
the officials. And we know perfections not a not a
reasonable expectation. But yeah, they get together. You know the
contact on Burrow, the umpire is the other official and
in addition to the referee, who could see that. And
if the umpire season and says, hey, yeah I've got
(06:02):
contact to the headneck area, Okay, great, let's let's drop
a flag. Or if another official I think at the
goal line, you're going to have one set of eyes
on each of those receivers, so there's going to be
less help in that action. But yeah, absolutely you want
them to get together. If somebody sees something a different.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Way, okay, But do you see a point where we
start with the final two minutes where we're there's a
you know, the eye in the sky is able to say, guys,
you miss this, let's clean this up. Like, do we
get to that point where this is what we're going
to do, and let's say we just start out with
a final two minutes, we're.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Heading in that direction.
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Absolutely, you look at the couple weeks ago, right, Sam
Donold Thursday Night, we don't get the face mask in
the end zone, big play safety, So yeah, we're headed
in that direction.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
I think the Competition Committee has.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Always taken a more measured approach, and right now there's
some situations when there's a flag down, play can assist.
I think we're going to see I don't know when,
if it's next year, if it's three years, five years,
we're going to see somebody up there that's going to say, hey,
and the last two minutes is a perfect, perfect starting
place or is it scoring plays as the turnovers because
(07:14):
officials aren't perfect. There's one hundred and fifty to one
hundred and fifty five plays a game. Overwhelming number of
decisions are correct, but there's four or five plays that
really affect the outcome, that decide the outcome, and you
got to be perfect on those plays, and a lot
of them happen in the last two minutes. So yeah,
it's a great starting place, and I think that'll be
an off season discussion with the committee for sure.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I never understood this with the NBA, that the star
players would get calls or the benefit of the doubt,
because I always thought they're the stars. They don't need
the benefit of the doubt. It's the guy who's the
ninth man on the bench. Do Mahomes gets, you know,
preferential treatment because he's Patrick Mahomes. Did Brady get preferential
treatment because he was Tom Brady? And if so, why?
Speaker 6 (07:58):
I think that's a perception. I really do high profile. Look,
Tom Brady probably the greatest of all time. Patrick Mahomes
on his way there. So there's going to be more eyeballs,
there's going to be more attention. Whether they get the
call they don't. But when you look at the numbers,
and I don't know the numbers this year, but whenever
we did that, whenever we did a deep dive, it
(08:20):
wasn't that Tom Brady's or the Peyton Mannings, you know,
or the Patrick Mahomes that were getting all the calls.
Speaker 7 (08:27):
It was more even imbalanced.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
And you know, look, there's there's kind of this perception
that Joe Burrow doesn't get those calls. You know, I
read today that he needs to start arguing more, he
needs to start complaining more. I don't officials don't the
good ones that doesn't affect them. They want to get
it right, And it doesn't matter if it's Tom Brady
or if it's a you know, a backup quarterback that's
in the game. So yeah, I think that's more perception.
(08:52):
I don't think that's reality. But look, sometimes perception becomes reality.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, but Brady jawing at you and you're an official,
that does it impact?
Speaker 7 (09:01):
It could go one or two ways, because I've I've
heard officials that said, you're not going to get that.
Speaker 6 (09:07):
The more you jawed me, the more I'm gonna I'm not,
you know, like, oh this guy, like all right, shut up.
You know I and I work with Tom now and
I love him and he's he's a sweetheart. I can't believe,
I say, you used to complain a lot. That's not
what I'm getting from you today.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
What current rule do we have to do away with?
Speaker 7 (09:29):
Oh? You know, I don't.
Speaker 6 (09:31):
I just I honestly think today and I never would
have said this ten or fifteen years ago, I think
it's what we're talking about. I think it is giving
the officials, giving somebody the opportunity to help correct some.
Speaker 7 (09:43):
Of these mistakes, and I use mistakes, you know. I
think it's just lack of a better term, because the
game is so fast.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
But Dean, we keep hearing we need to make them
full time. Like what does being full time? Your eyesight
doesn't get better? And like you missed that call.
Speaker 7 (09:59):
That call happened.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
That call is missed whether they're full time or not.
And then during this season they are as full time
as anybody else. They spend hours upon hours upon hours
looking at film. You're never going to prevent that that call.
You know, you're gonna have situations where they miss calls.
I don't think it's full time. I think we've gotten
to the point where the technology is so good and
it can be seamless, where if you and I are
(10:21):
sitting up there and I go, oh man, we just
missed a hit on the quarterback. Hey guys, put a
flag down. I think that's where we're headed. I think
we got to get there. I think it has to
be limited. You can't. What we don't want is somebody
reofficiating every aspect of everything.
Speaker 7 (10:35):
You can't do that.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
True, it's always great to talk to you. One of
these days we'll have you on and we'll just you know,
talk to now, you know, just.
Speaker 7 (10:42):
Say hey again of officiating. Love to talk to you. Dean,
how's the family one day?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Congratulations on your Dodgers too.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Oh thanks Dan.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
It's Dean Blandino, Fox Sports, NFL college football rules analyst,
and he'll be doing all the college games NFL games Fox,
including Colorado, Texas Tech and Falcons and the Saints Fretzi.
One of these days we'll just book Dean and I'll
just say, Dean, how you doing, And then he'll say fine,
I'll go all right, Dean, just check it in with you.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Fight him to come to the pontoon boat and Maine
have a barbecue. I don't know, sounds like he wants.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
To hang out with you, and it didn't know. It
didn't sound like wants it to be more than just
he see that miss call. It didn't sound like no,
if he hung out with me, realized why he didn't
want to hang out with me.
Speaker 8 (11:27):
Yes, Marmon, is Brian Costello on that list too? That
covers the Jets. We never reach out to him when
something's going well.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Well, Let's face it, most of the time when we're
reaching out to somebody, something bad has happened. Getting fired.
Playing well is not any fun, right. We're like the
Lakers are interesting because they're losing now. The Bucks are interesting,
they're losing now. The Sixers are interesting. They're losing now.
Is Joe Burrow going to be Dan Marino not get
(11:57):
to another Super Bowl?
Speaker 9 (11:58):
Yes, Paul, Dean Blandino sen It like he'd be a
great stories over beers guy, because right now he can't
tell us everything working.
Speaker 10 (12:05):
For the league head of officials.
Speaker 9 (12:07):
But like when he's semi retired and have a few
beers in him, I'll bet he's got some good ones.
Speaker 10 (12:11):
M Commissioner's office.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Maybe New Orleans. Oh, we're down there, Hey, Dean, I'm
about a beer or two, so tell me about Belichick there.
But I can't imagine an official where Tom Brady is complaining,
where the official goes, Hey, you're not going to get
that called like, you can't. You can't react that way.
You're tired of Tom, you know, chewing your ear off complaining,
(12:35):
but you can't be Hey, I'm going to teach you
a lesson. I'm not going to call that roughing the passer. Yeah, Paul,
do you think.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
A few guys or officials, Let's say you're an official
and you're a fifty year old and you're living in
a suburban town. If you go to like a cocktail
party in songa, So what do you do for a living?
Would you not want to tell them what you did
for a living? Bunch of guys at a cocktail party
and be Pepperwick questions.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
I probably just wear my fel siating shirt. Bring the whistle, Yeah,
I bring the whistle. I have the hat on. Yeah,
I'd have a really tight shirt on. The ladies would
like that? I would you like to call me for
a holding? Yes, Tom, I'm.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
All about that. I would totally werit one of those.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Ti I'm sure you who the whistle, throw a.
Speaker 11 (13:21):
Flag and say something cheezy like I had to call
a flag on your you're too hot for this room
with penalty fifteen yards.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
No, no, you see this gets into fantasy world. Yeah,
it goes quickly. It goes quickly right into that. Yeah,
see exactly. Yeah, this is my great from was that
this week? Last week? I don't remember, last year, ten
years ago, twenty years ago. Todd can make a left
turn on the four oh five from the right lane
(13:47):
and go all the way over to the hov line,
and you can do it in the span of you know,
twenty seconds. Pretty amazing, Like what's in your mind is
kind of remarkable.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Now, don't have to go on a separate chant.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
It's scary, Yes it is, Yes.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Although I do bet if you're like at that cocktail
party and somebody reaches for something and you're like, well,
that's offside. Everything is a pun about being in Yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Well hey Caroll, we're gonna call roughing on that one.
If you know what that reaching you what I mean, Sally,
h hands to the face, Sally, Come on, ah, look
at Tommy over there.
Speaker 9 (14:26):
Yes, Paul, that would be brutal because you know, guys
like us, you get it when you go to parties
and there's football. What do you think of the Ravens
this year? But if you're a ref and you're with
a bunch of dudes at a party, just get beat senseless.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
All right, we'll come back. We're going to regroup to
meet Friday. Morale is high, and we'll get to your
phone calls. Coming up. We also have the most must
win game of the weekend coming up. We're back after this.
Speaker 1 (14:51):

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Live man that chicken sausage gumbo. That's our meat Friday.
All right, we're gonna do the most must win game
of the weekend. Fritzy has a sports center tees as well.
Zach and des Monet joins us on the program. Hi, Zach,
what do you have for me?
Speaker 12 (15:25):
Zach?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Hey? Dan, Hey, sorry about that, Thanks for giving.
Speaker 13 (15:28):
Me a callback. Yeah, yeah, Zach from Iowa. Third time, longtime,
heavier than last time. I thought it was kind of
interesting that when you had dinon then asking the former
pool question of whether he thinks ref should blow or
swallow it. But you know, they were moving on from that, uh,
(15:50):
going on the potentral road trip out to Iowa, looking
around and bouncing between the stations. We're gonna throw out
and offer to you guys my wife's family. So I
guess my family has an Iowa state tail getting bus
that I would personally take the week off of to
charter you guys around the state in May with one caveat.
(16:11):
My wife is due with our first kid May twelfth,
so if it happens to you know, come to D Day,
I'll have to take off and you guys can hang
on to the bus for the rest of the week.
But if it's a better date, maybe you look at
next year September sixth, Iowa state versus Iowa. I don't know,
just a thought be a great one, he names Iowa.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
All right, all right, you know what, we'd probably do
it after the baby's born. But yeah, I was wondering
maybe over the summer we'd take a road trip to Iowa.
Just drive around. We have a lot of radio affiliates
around there, or you know, we'd just sailoat everybody, do
a meet and greet and let pritty hug everybody. Brent
(16:53):
in Connecticut, Hi, Brent, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 14 (16:56):
Want everybody going back?
Speaker 15 (16:58):
Last hour Max to Staton pretty good ext week last
week you grew across Patrick twice this year. And if
we're going to Iowa, I recommend going Latemer early fall
six feet tall.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
All right, thank you, Brent, bad connection there, Yeah, seton.
Somebody sent me.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Uh now, this could either be a great idea or
the fastest way to possibly kill a road trip through
Iowa for you. I'm not it's going to be one
of the two, or maybe somewhere in the middle.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Option.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
But somebody sent me a bike trip across the state
of Iowa. It's many many Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Yeah. We were trying to get from point A to
point B in the span of a couple hours. Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
But what if it was over many hours and many
miles and it's it's a seven day bike trip that
goes across the state of Iowa.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
No, No, I don't know how to say. It's like
rag no bray ray.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
If they're electric bikes, maybe, okay, what if it's what
if we use an electric bike?
Speaker 2 (18:00):
No? Still know. What if we go there at the
same time as this and.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Like somebody who like, we do a bet and that
person has to do the bike trip?
Speaker 2 (18:10):
No, but then no, okay I did. I did my
bike trip from Atlanta to New Orleans. What if we
all go but I do the bike trip if you
would like to do that.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
But I just.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Martins with me too. He just said he's in Okay,
So if we do, we're gonna be We're gonna be.
Oh sorry, I thought you said that you were My bad,
My bad. No, We're gonna be somewhere on Monday and
then we'll do the show and then we'll drive a
couple hours to you know another one of our radio affiliates.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Even better, it would be from July nineteenth to July
twenty sixth, which Hello, somebody's birthday week.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
No, it's still not selling it. Somebody's birthday week? Jack
and Phoenix, Hi Jack, what's on your mind?
Speaker 16 (18:57):
Dandy?
Speaker 17 (19:00):
You meet Friday?
Speaker 16 (19:00):
Got on a road trip. I did forget Iowa. Let's
roll from the Man Cave all the way down to
New Orleans and I'll put my job and be the driver.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Well, we want to stop at a lot of our
radio affiliates, so we thought if we just located, you know, Iowa,
and then we said, all right, maybe we could drive
around and go to five different cities five days and
just say hello, spread the love of the DP show,
go door to door and just let him know why
they should listen or watch this show. Mike and Wisconsin,
(19:31):
and then we'll bring you the mm W got w
Hi Mike than morn Fellas.
Speaker 17 (19:39):
Thanks for having me. Dan, I've got some inside information
source close to me. He's actually a chef in the
Green Bay area. Jordan Love and some of the packers
were in this week and he got to chat with them,
and obviously they have a bye this weekend, but he
said then that Jordan Love said quote, he really wants
(20:00):
to win next week.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Thank you, thank you. We got amateur Jimmy Jimmerson's around
the league helping us out with the obvious. All right,
it's time the MMW got W which is the most
must win game of the weekend?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
Todd at three and five and having dropped three straight.
Speaker 11 (20:22):
The Cowboys but have a strunk showing at home against
their division rival Eagles and find a way to win.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
That game, or if they are done done, they give him.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
A fourth round pick for Trey Lance. I would think
at some point you would want to see if he
can do anything. You got Dak, you know who's sidelined
for at least a month, unless once they're out of
the playoffs, maybe a play You know what you have
with Cooper Rush. He's thirty one years of age and
he's going to be economical. He'll be a game manager
for you. Try not to make any mistakes, Seaton, MMW
(20:50):
got W.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Well, I there's a fairly obvious MMG ot WOTW in
college football. Okay, stay away from that one. Sick with
the NFL. I think the Bears must win this weekend
against the Patriots.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Man, can you imagine if Drake May outplays Caleb Williams.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Bears are on a two game losing streak. Their coach's
seat is on fire. It's an inferno right now. And
when you look at the rest of their schedule, their
home against New England, but then they have Green Bay, Minnesota,
the Lions, the forty nine Ers, Minnesota, Detroit again, Seattle,
and this might be the last game they win this season,
(21:31):
possibly the Bears if they don't win this one. If not,
they're going to close the season out just in miserable shape.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Bears apologist Pauli.
Speaker 9 (21:40):
I'm prepared to debunk this because if you're a Bears
fan who wants a new head coach and doesn't want
Matt Eberflus, it's most must lose game of the weekend,
because then at the writing's on the wall, as.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
They saw, that might be a last thirty minutes poll question.
Is this weekend's Bears game must win or must lose?
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Yeah, Marvin, most must win game of the weekend the.
Speaker 8 (22:03):
New York Jets. They're at the Arizona Cardinals this weekend.
They have to you know, after that they got the Colts,
the Seahawks, the Dolphins, the Jaguars. They can go on
a little run, but it's got to start this week.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
That's what I was going to say the Jets as well. Okay, Pauli,
this is a weird one. The eight ranked Indiana Hoosiers.
They're nine to oh they're hosting Michigan. Not only do
they have to win this because they have Ohio State
next week, they have to win big. They have to
pound Michigan on national TV in order to afford a
loss next week to Ohio State stay in the playoffs.
(22:35):
You must It's a must pound situation.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yes, must pound ye and ps, yes.
Speaker 10 (22:41):
You've been doing that one for your must pound situations.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Must pound. Uh. I would say the Jets, I think
that's most must win, but I can also say that
about the Cardinals, like, you got to win these games
if you want to stay in the mix. There, most
must win. It's a most must win for both of
these teams. David in all I own. Then we have
Todd doing his Sports centerchees Hi David.
Speaker 18 (23:05):
Hey Dan, happy uh, Happy meet Friday. I got a
comment about the calendar and then the game last night.
Guys were talking about the Raven's uniforms. It kind of
looks like the bag that goes over the crown royal.
Uh like liquor you ever seen that? And uh on
the calendar, Toob was talking about how he's mister May
(23:27):
are you sir, he's not September?
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (23:33):
September? Very nice, very nice? Now you own the month
of May. That that is a great picture of you.
In fact, when I saw it, I checked with the
French kid. I said, did you did you photoshop doctor this?
He said no. I said, day all right, Ton, But
we uh took famous sports movie posters and then we
(23:55):
made those our own. So there's a lot of fun
in there, and you're they're available right now, Dan Patrick
dot com, I ton, here we go. It's it's time
for the Sports Center tease. Marvin coming up on Sports Center.
Speaker 11 (24:19):
They had the eye of the Tiger until a comeback
was purple traded. How the Ravens made the Bengals burrow
their face in the sand. Can the Men of Steel
get it done in DC? Or can a rookie the
Kryptonite make the.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Towels look terrible?
Speaker 11 (24:30):
Might the Cowboys turn things around in Big D Or
are they barklaying up the wrong tree?
Speaker 12 (24:33):
Will explain?
Speaker 11 (24:34):
Can Denver dust themselves off after getting bullied in Baltimore
and ruined the Chiefs undefeated season? Or will Mahomes and
company knicks that idea? Also stroud and proud? How the
Texans QBA plans to tame the Lions Sunday Night? From
Lions to Tigers? Will LUSU make the Tige turn in
Death Valley? You don't want to miss this one. Can
the Dogs make the Rebels stay in their lane? They're
chomping at the bit? Can the Gators really hooked the Horns?
We're happy you're hooked on us sports.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
In the next I'm gonna I'm gonna say, all right, clean,
Uh you over wrote?
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Uh that could have taken at least one line.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Yeah, then yeah, because then you can emphasize some things.
It just felt like you were going like that at
the very end of it, and it was well written.
Thank you. You know when they do those disclaimers like
I'm less apt to buy something when they were like,
here's this product, then all of a sudden.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Because yellowing of the eyes are in excessive bleeding prohibited? Yeah,
remember FDIC.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
My favorite one is the depression medication with the side
effects of potential suicide and depression, you think it would
counter back. Yeah, how are you going to know if
it was the medicine or just the what I'm trying
to treat.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
I just I'm already depressed. I have depression. Depression. Yeah,
you may be susceptible to depression.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
It's not for everyone. Ask your doctor, pharmacist.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
My favorite part of that was tot by the way
he had something like he was like, uh, will there
Ravens tonight will explain, there's something we'll explain.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
There they doos it will explain, We'll explain. Yeah, I
mean I don't know whill they were with it? Would
you update the poll results? By the way, when I
was walking in, I was checking on the meet Friday,
and I'm walking back to the studio and come over
to my side and Fritzy had dropped these Sports Center
(26:23):
tees on the floor.
Speaker 11 (26:24):
I thought that was passive aggressive. I actually dropped it. It
slipped out of it, so when.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I walked by, I was going to pick it up
because it was on the floor, and Tide goes, oh,
that must be my Sports Center tees.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Getting close to the end of the show you you
do win.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
You do remind me quite a few times.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
On the floor where you're going to walk.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Seat and update the pole results.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
This week's Bears game is must win, must lose. Right now,
seventy one percent have it as must win.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Yeah, you don't want if you don't want your coach,
you don't want to go on a run here and
then all of a sudden, it's like he's back again.
They've been a disappointment. Now do I think that the
expectations were sky high in Chicago? Yes, I do. It
wasn't you're gonna make the postseason. It was who are
we going to face in the postseason? Are we gonna
(27:15):
have a home game in the postseason. I thought that
they were a playoff caliber team. They have underachieved so far.
And Caleb Williams like it or not, these quarterbacks, when
there's a quarterback taking one and a quarterback taken two,
that's how we lump you in the rest of your careers.
May not be fair, but that's what we do, Yes, Paulin.
Speaker 9 (27:39):
Most must lose, you could also throw Giants versus Panthers.
The loser is in place for the number one pick
of the draft. That's in Germany in Munich.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
God, you I mean we can export anything NFL Wise,
you imagine you're over there in Germany and you're like, wait,
what NFL game we're getting? Hold on, Hold on yourself, Panthers, Giants,
Oh my god, we're so lucky.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
They're both two and seven. What if you just switched
it to seven and two and hoped they didn't look
it up?
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Even then, I wouldn't go. I still wouldn't want to
go to the game. Hey, they're both seven and two.
I am rooting for Bryce Young. I'm glad he's getting
another chance. I don't think it's, you know, totally his
fault when you when you have a quarterback who's in
and then you take him out and then you put
him back in. Like we've seen this before with other teams.
Give him a chance. You have nothing to lose except
(28:32):
for every game. But see if you have anything there.
If not, he'll be on another roster next year. Tony
and Iowa, Hi, Tone, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 19 (28:45):
Height?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Hey?
Speaker 19 (28:50):
Just a couple of things. One, ragbri is a fun
tradition in Iowa, going through the small town just seeing
the bikers come through. It is a ragbriy.
Speaker 14 (28:59):
Is a good time.
Speaker 17 (29:00):
So that's it.
Speaker 19 (29:02):
And I so want to just give a shout out
to NASCAR and NBC. NASCAR is the best coverage championship
for this weekend. Really looking forward to that.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Well, thank you, Tony. Yeah, I'm work shopping this, I
said to see and it'd be nice just to get
a sprinter van or bus. And we just acted like

Speaker 2 (29:44):
Well when you went to the super Bowl with the
French Kid, you stopped through Iowa, didn't you. I did? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay.

We spent the night in Des Moines, went to a
Drake game. They have their like famous for like the
relay races there, Oh, the Drake Relay. Yeah, the Drake relays. Yeah,

You guys do the most must win Oh, first time,
long time obviously five ten and a Church Hilly in
two sixty five. You guys do the most must win
Game of the week, but then we never hear about
it again. So I'm thinking on Monday, you should do
a most Must Win Game of the Week VP and
(30:40):
pick the MMW g OTWVP and tell us who was
the MVP from those games.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Wow, that's that's a lot of a lot of letterings.

here that type of mwg OTB MVP MVP.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Michael, thank you. I'll take that under advisement. How about
we take a break. That food smells too good, like
I'd like to start sampling it. I'm on, the food
is served, the food, are you going to try another
rendition of that? The food?
Speaker 3 (31:18):
I'm sure I got something in me to work out. Okay,
there's always time for another song. But you guys don't
want to hear that.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
So that was based off of the what one shining
moment or it was.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
That was the attempt anywhere? God it was they came
at us.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
The food is served, you know what, Maybe we play
that Marvin coming up next. But I remember when Todd
said he had a song and then I'm going why.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's like one dining moment.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
That's what I wanted the food. All right, we'll take
a break. If you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner,
we will show you our meat Friday. We're gonna show
you our meat and we'll come back. This day in
sports history. What we learned, what's in store for Monday?
Speaker 1 (32:01):
After this, 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 WAPP.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Last call for phone calls. What we learn? What's in
store tomorrow? Paulie wants to do the most unwatchable game
of the weekend. So we just did the most most
must win game of the weekend.
Speaker 10 (32:25):
This is the most unwatchable game that's not in Germany.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Oh okay, taking off the board. Whoa, I don't have
my list of games here.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
I'll run through and maybe you can grade. You guys
can grate out the watchability level. Okay, let's go early.
Patriots at Bears.
Speaker 10 (32:44):
Yeah, decent storyline, that's good.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Okay, like a four, I'm just gonna give you. Yeah,
or yeah, Bill's at Cults.
Speaker 10 (32:57):
Long Plausum.
Speaker 9 (32:59):
Yeah yeah, Broncos at Chiefe. Let's go to the objective time, Yeah, sure,
the kind of sure. Falcons at Saints.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
This is where the team that has the worst record
between the two always wins the game for some reason.
So I figured the Saints are going to win this game.
Speaker 10 (33:22):
Forty nine Ers at Buccaneers.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Yeah, yeah, that's Spacey McCaffrey spanks.
Speaker 9 (33:26):
Sure, Okay, Steelers at Commanders very much, that might be
one of the more wise Yeah yeah yeah, Vikings at Jaguars.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Yeah not really. I mean, there's nothing worse than the
Giants and Panthers. So US based games, Yeah, that's not good.
Speaker 10 (33:49):
And that same ilk Titans at Chargers, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Yeah, just because the Chargers playoff team. Yeah, I mean, look,
I'm I'm easy when it comes to Hey, this game's on,
all right, I don't want.
Speaker 10 (34:04):
It Eagles at Cowboys one of a late slip. Jets
at Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
Yeah, I think so, because we're either going to go
then Jets maybe question Mark, or we're gonna go you
know Cardinals are for real.
Speaker 10 (34:20):
Last game Lions of Texas.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Let me see a couple of phone
calls in here. Dave in La, Hi, Dave, what's on
your mind today? Hey?
Speaker 16 (34:33):
Dan five nine A swoll one anyway, just want to
chime in as a longtime Angelino kind of a guy
from a Surinade. We're all in that group where we
like showtime, have a big, rich history with the Lakers,
and what's happening is just a travesty how lebron and
(34:56):
Rich Paul have kind of hijacked the entire team to
showcase Bronnie probably couldn't even get a double double in
the w NBA. It's just a joke. As far as
the brand, and so much of us are just really
not interested. You'd be amazed how many people are just
longtime Diard Laker fans are just boycotting the Lakers. As
(35:17):
far as I'm concerned, I don't want to spend it.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Time to go, but Brownie's already going to the G League.
Speaker 16 (35:24):
Yeah right, I'm saying, but just the whole, like I said,
the whole charade that they did, you know, coming into
the season and his game is sold out. They're talking about, oh,
he's playing the South Bay Lakers and everything, and yeah,
I like the kid. I'm not hating on the kid.
I would do the same thing, you know, in his situation.
It's just you know, it's just a if you would.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Do the same thing, then how can you criticize what
they're doing. Dave.
Speaker 16 (35:50):
Well, if I'm no, I would do the same thing.
If I'm the kid, I'm gonna take the job for sure.
But as the Lakers, I.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Mean, okay, hold on, See the problem is the over
coverage of this. Okay, you can blame these other shows
that they made more out of this. This was Lebron.
His son got drafted, and he wanted a moment where
he wanted to continue to play until his son was
going to go into the NBA. If it keeps Lebron
(36:17):
engaged and he's playing at a very high level. Just
coming off thirty nine points, Bron, He's going to the
G League. That's it. It's okay. He played thirteen minutes
he's not the reason why you've got a five hundred
record here. Okay, it's not him, and he's going to
(36:37):
the G League. Will he be back up? Probably at
Christmas time. In the meantime, they better get their act
together because you can't blame this on Bronni. How about
one dining moment that Fritzy gave us after the final four.
He made it one shining moment. He made it one
dining moment. Just a little bit here, Mark.
Speaker 12 (37:02):
The food is, meats are carved. You're drooeling with their
tessipation because you're so starved, you've locked sandwich years. They
don't see your taste buds glow all bad hard work.
Speaker 11 (37:22):
Well now it shows in one dining moment.
Speaker 12 (37:27):
It's all tasted wine. One dining moment. Stuff your face
but no wine.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
Okay, I'm just I'm gonna remind the audience it's not
meant to be funny. That's the sad part.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
Of the scales, not off. Yes, the pounds pack on.
Speaker 11 (37:45):
You saill have just one more until the plates are gone.
Speaker 12 (37:51):
Now your jeans won't close.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
You're so great about this rendition of this, The little
vibrato that Todd has in his voice for this is
just really like ties it all together.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
It is just wonderful, wonderful Jackson in Virginia by Jackson.
Speaker 17 (38:11):
Hey, BP, how you doing today?
Speaker 14 (38:13):
Have you Friday?
Speaker 12 (38:13):
Well?
Speaker 2 (38:14):
Thank you Jackson.
Speaker 14 (38:16):
So Paully missed his pea bomb all the week? Caroline, uh,
last night and he.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
Missed, PAULI, your pea bombs have been pu.
Speaker 10 (38:28):
I didn't pick them last night. I don't think no.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Last week, the last couple of weeks you've wished.
Speaker 10 (38:33):
Yeah, I'm we.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
Gave you a lot of credit and then now we
have to give you some blames.
Speaker 10 (38:38):
It's the overall though. Bet if you bet all season,
you'd be okay.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Well, I'm going by what you've done recently. Nice spin there,
and then you feels like you've been backing off your
pea bombs because they haven't they've detonated. Do you have
a pea bomb this week? Are you making up one
right now? You didn't have you?
Speaker 10 (38:59):
No, I looked at the and I didn't love any underdog.
Speaker 2 (39:03):
Well, no, you can get a you can just get
your bet right, you know, a pea bomb can be
just Hey, I think this team's gonna win. They're gonna
come like Notre Dame. Is that a pea bomb that
they actually covered twenty six and a half?
Speaker 10 (39:16):
I would say no, I would say, but I'm not bombing.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
That's not your peeple.
Speaker 9 (39:19):
No, okay, I would get back on the Army first half.
Cover what happened last week with the Army. Their quarterback
had an illness nobody knew until a kickoff and he
was pulled. The starter was never started the game before. Okay,
let's get back on Army first hand.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
I don't think Army. Does Army play this weekend?
Speaker 10 (39:35):
They do Army North Texas.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Oh, and then they got a big game at Yankee
Stadium against Notre Dame. All right, let's go around the room.
What we learned on the program? Todd would you learn today?
Speaker 11 (39:47):
Dominique Foxworth says referee crals are like the weather, you
have no control over it, So shut up in dealer.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
See no Connor. What did you learn today?
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Dean Blandino wouldn't mind it called just to check.
Speaker 2 (39:56):
In and theos. Marvin would you learn today?
Speaker 3 (40:01):
You want to go on the road trip to Iowa?
Speaker 12 (40:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
I think it would be fun, you know, just kind
of a let's maybe go to houses, maybe have dinner
with some listeners. You know, how about that you can
win hosting us for guest. Yes, Paulie, would you learn
must lose game for the Bears. Thanks? I had a
lot of fun this week. I try to do better
