Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's the final hour of the final day of the
week and it's a meat Friday. Come on in, we'll
talk some football. We got preseason football coming up tonight
and this weekend and being a meat Friday. Beer canned
chicken enchiladas, beer can duck enchiladas, ver days as squeets
(00:26):
that's Mexican street corn. That's off the cob. If it's
on the cob, then it's called elote Oh is that
the difference? Yes, as squeet days is off the cob,
elotee is on the cop.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yes, Paul, you said duck enchiladas. Yeah, it seems like
there's a duck. Is a polarizing dish.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah, I'm not a ducker. Nope, No, I love it.
I had lollypomp lamb chops the other day, pretty good.
But duck.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Is it the taste or the animal?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I think it's the taste. Yeah, you can also, you know,
bring in the you know, a duck. It seems like
a nice person, nice guy.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Yeah, you appreciate him.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Yeah. Well, I've had people say up in Maine, hey,
duck hunting man, I go uh nah, I'm good. How
about I listen. I'll just listen for the shotgun blast there.
I'm not a hunter. I got fish and then I
catching release. I don't know. You can always just shoot
and release too. I just like to go. I don't
(01:38):
keep them. I just shoot them and let him run off.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
I'll chase him down after they fall.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Yeah, the little shoot and release.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I had a friend of mine who came back. He
went big game hunting, he told me, but he spent money.
Where you go to these I don't know what they're
called compounds, farms where the animals are inside the fence
and then you go and hunt them down. And he
brought back something and I said, wow, I got it.
(02:05):
How did you get that? He goes, well, it's it's
an enclosed area. I said, that doesn't seem really fair.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
That's sporting.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Yeah, you know, just kind of like going into their
backyard there. Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
I once went with my uncle and a couple of
guys turkey hunting, and that seemed unfair. Turkeys don't seem fast.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
They weren't fast, and they can't fly.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
They could fly.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Ish oh well, not wellisht at them. They can't all right.
Final hour of the program. Yeh see, I just saw
a story recently about this. There's like a Texas big
game hunter the billionaire who got did did he go?
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Yeah, like some kind of like rare buffalo or something
he was hunting. I do I do root for you know,
when you have the uh but in Mexico, when they're
bullfighting in Spain, I do rot root for the bowl.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
I do.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I find myself, you know, defend yourself a little bit,
go get them.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Yes, Todd, you're anti matador.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
You want to you want you want to see the door.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
You know, I'm pro bowl. I'm pro bowl. You know,
it goes back to the Jordan years. You know, of
course the greatest Bowl of all time. They tried to
They tried to get him too. I do all of those.
Speaker 8 (03:21):
Things though, like when they're in the ring with the matador,
the bullfighting, the running of the bulls, all that. I'm
definitely team bull, like yeah goys, yeah, gotcha. Sorry, it
never ends well for the bull ever. But I do
like the underdog story there.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
My my family went to a bullfight, and so my
daughters are really young, and I think my wife went
in and thought, you know, maybe they used like rubber
swords or something, or like there there's you know, it's
not going to hurt them. And I wasn't on this vacation.
(03:57):
You had another one that I paid for, but I
was working at the Mothership and I just remember that
phone call and my three daughters are screaming in tears,
and my wife is emotional and she's like, why didn't
you tell me that they killed the bull? And I go,
what are you talking about? I'm not there, and it's
(04:20):
called a bullfight. I would assume that there could be blood.
They're like, oh my god, your daughters, they are so emotional.
I go, hon, how do you not know what's going
to happen in a bullfight? And I didn't do anything?
Why am I responsible because of a traumatic experience? I
(04:40):
didn't tell you about a bullfight? Yes, Dodd.
Speaker 7 (04:43):
Now do people cheer, you know, rigorously for the Matador?
How does that work?
Speaker 9 (04:46):
Like?
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I don't know if there's draftings odds on that.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
What if you had money on the Matador to win,
then you're not necessarily happy about the result there?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
What do you What do you think, Dodd?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
I think it's evenly distributed. Summer rooting for the bull.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Yeah, well, you know, these matadors are heroes. I mean
they're big time stars.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, that situation with your kids and the bull fighting,
it's kind of like there's a story about fifteen years
ago some sixth grade teachers showed her kids Titanic and
they thought it was a love story.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
What it is, Yeah, the first hour until she won't
let him get on the piece of wood there.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
They weren't prepared for the history of Titanic. All the
kids were shocked when the boat went down and Jack
died where.
Speaker 8 (05:27):
She had plenty of room to let him up. I
didn't save him, but she chose to let him do that.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I want to scooch on. Yeah, no, yes to was.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
It heroic or stupid?
Speaker 4 (05:37):
That?
Speaker 7 (05:37):
If that's true the way the movie portrayed the band
who is still playing as the ship is sinking, it's like,
good for them, they're trying to keep everybody calm.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
Why don't you go find a way to save yourself.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
So that's that is supposedly true. Well, the way till
the end they're playing the violin and yes, yeah, it's
kind of like you brought down that Darius Rucker concert
when you were playing. Yeah, and then he had to
breathe new life into it. I said, you know, that's
a great yes Marvin song.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
I'd prefer to be on the Titanic then to be there.
Speaker 8 (06:17):
I think of that woman that just called in and
like the there. There are people who like this was
their night out. They paid for tickets, probably a solid
price for those tickets, Yes, and they got treated to
a metally of that.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (06:31):
Some guy they'd never heard of got up there and
sang a couple of songs and I.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Totally I said one song. I said, just do one
song and then you go no, no, no, I'm going
to do too. I go, all right, once again, you
never ever listen.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Sometimes America thinks they got talented.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
In my head, I crushed it. I was in the shower, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 10 (06:51):
And the smartest thing Darius did was as soon as
Fritzy got off stage, he went to his hoo.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
He said, yes, let me let me get this audience back.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
Let's pretend that never happened.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
Yes, we aren't really giving Todd enough credit though, because,
as we've done well numerous times on the show now,
Todd usually doesn't follow the music. He usually just sings
at whatever pace and and sort of cadence that he wants.
He did a pretty good job of following the music
with Darius and.
Speaker 7 (07:23):
His and who could keep your hands in your pockets
that long talk about a Guinness record.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Okay, Darius told me that they were following Todd. Well,
they're professional music, but Todd was not following them. They
were because I had spies at the rehearsal and one
of the band members said, he can sing a little bit,
but he can't stay on the tune like you couldn't.
(07:50):
They were trying to adjust to you. Beat is just
a suggestion, Yeah, yeah, it's optional.
Speaker 7 (07:56):
I made some suggestions, like, you know, I want to
explain to him what I was thinking to make a.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Sound like the whole out of the radio. And they
kind of rolled their eyes about.
Speaker 7 (08:03):
Like who this kid's gonna tell the Darius Rucker band
how to play the music.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
And seafellas, Yes, this is my interpretation of this. Okay,
I'm thinking I start out here.
Speaker 5 (08:12):
Hey Joe, you're a little flat there.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Help me help me out on this. Give me a
little bit a little more snare drums are a little behind, guys.
Let's pick it out.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
I say, when I turn out the live when not
with me.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
That's when you bring it.
Speaker 7 (08:24):
Up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Put me out.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Ye are we paying attention and we're trying to make
me look bad? What do we do?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
That's never gonna happen again? Though, never say never, no, no, no,
I'm gonna say I'm going to say never. Darius won't
say it, but I'll say it for him.
Speaker 7 (08:38):
I was hoping, I was he was going to reach
out and say, you know, we got a few more
gigs if you're interested.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
It really went over well in Bridgeport. If you want
to come with us, and.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
That call never, that will never happen. That will never
happen again. I give you credit.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
I call you all the time.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
What can I say?
Speaker 5 (09:00):
I don't build the.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Mines away?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Two?
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
You did that in front of like I don't know
how many thousands of people, probably six thousand people there.
What a legend?
Speaker 5 (09:22):
Wait, come on, bridge.
Speaker 10 (09:35):
Only small?
Speaker 6 (09:36):
I love.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
It sounds like you're wounded. That's all I got shot
in the leg.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Like these dudes just harmonized with Todd. They came in.
I'm backing vocals. It's still the coolest thing. It's still
it's unbelievable. As much fun as we have with it.
Speaker 7 (09:55):
But I will say this is usually followed by Simon
saying that was absolutely dreadful.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
You're kidding me. That was terrible.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
This is why Darius Rutger has such an incredible backup band.
They made you sound a little bit better than you
really are.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Palatable if yeah, say.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yes, I mean you got tons of confidence and zero awareness.
I mean I will give you credit for that. You
have so much confidence and no awareness whatsoever.
Speaker 10 (10:22):
Yes, Marvin, Right before they went to the second song,
he turns to you, he goes, I always pay my.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Bets, I know.
Speaker 6 (10:30):
And I.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Think he was surprised you were doing two songs initially,
and then I said they're both Hallan Oats songs and
he goes, all right, he goes, I don't do Hallan Oates.
I said, talk to either, but let him sing.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
Seeing that on the song list, that got very real
to me. I was already a little nervous. But I'm
waiting backstage and I'm like, okay, we're up the song six,
and then after song eight it says those two songs.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I'm like, oh my, but but the hands in the pocket, Yeah,
that was terrible.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
That was a bad look. I think that was part
of the nerves.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Know.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
I didn't know what to do with myself. I couldn't
even believe I was It was like an out of
body experience. While I'm singing, I'm like looking at myself
from the audience's perspective and sing me on the big
screen that on.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
How is this possibly happening while I'm singing? So it's
very weird.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, uh, Darius in Milwaukee. Apparently tonight was special Guests.
Yes to put a.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Bow on the music topic. Titanic's band All four, stayed
on the boat that night. Wallace Hartley was a leader.
They did not get on the lifeboats when they were
offered it opportunity. The last song they played was Nearer
God to Thee and that's it.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Two three four.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
You don't see an opening on a boat.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
What I say, because you'll kiss, I kiss. That's when
you got to ramp it up. Come on, guys, let's
do it together.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Preseason football. Yes, Paulie overreacted after what he saw last night.
Now all of a sudden, huh with the Eagles found
their backup quarterback, and hey, what about this running back
and this wide receiver? You know who I focused on
was Jalen Milroe. He threw for sixty one yards. He
rushed for another thirty eight and that was the Seahawks
(12:10):
Raiders game. So I'm cautiously optimistic about Jalen Milroe with Seattle,
and it's going to take a little time there. He's
a project, but that could be one of those where
in a couple of years we look back and say,
when did they get him? What round did they get him?
(12:32):
But if you look at his numbers, he had forty
five passing touchdowns thirty three rushing touchdowns days at Alabama,
it's like Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts is like, oh yeah,
pretty good. We didn't he get replaced by Tua And
Jalen Milroe's very talented, but raw and a project there.
(12:55):
And I'm interested tonight to watch the Browns with Shador Sanders.
Instead of really eying on somebody telling me what they saw,
I want to watch and then I can decide how
he did. Because you're gonna get a lot of coverage.
You're gonna get people who are gonna spin it one
way or another that he looked great, or he didn't
look great, he looked confident, or he looked nervous. It's
(13:18):
probably going to be one extreme or the other. And
I hope we get a true sense. I hope that
when he's done, he says, hey, you know, I felt
okay about myself or I felt comfortable out there, because
that's what this is all about. You're making your first start.
And when's the last time you can think of a
(13:39):
quarterback making his preseason debut with this much attached to it,
like cam Ward. I don't think anybody's going to be
like I got to watch cam Ward, or you're going
to have an opinion of cam Ward after his debut
with Shador. I can't think of too many quarterbacks who
(13:59):
will get this my attention for a preseason debut. And
for those you know, there's been columns, certainly in Cleveland,
you've had I think radio shows talking about is he
set up to fail? I think he's set up to succeed,
to be there with the first team because he hasn't
had first team reps. If he came in in the
(14:23):
third quarter with the third string, then you're setting him
up to fail. But you put him in there with
your first team.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
Great.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
But I'm not attaching too much to this. I think
He's probably going to play like a guy who wasn't
drafted in the first couple of rounds. But I want
to see is that confidence still there when he gets
roughed up or fumbles or an interception or a sack.
That's what I'm looking for. But I'm not going to have.
(14:54):
You know, there's not going to be a referendum on
Monday where I know exactly who Shador Sanders is, because
this is evolving. This is fluid yeampolling, and it's.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
So dumb to think that the Browns would not want
this kid to succeed. Fifth round draft pick. He has
a five year contract because they control his rights, actually
a four year contract for four million dollars. If he
somehow becomes a starting quarterback in the NFL, they have
him under contract for the next four years for four
point two million dollars. He could solve all their financial troubles.
Speaker 2 (15:25):

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Devin mccordy Football Night in America and les's three time
Super Bowl champ with the Patriots, and he is in
Foxborough and Tom Brady is getting a statue. It's going
to be twelve feet. Why does Brady need a twelve
foot statue? Devin?
Speaker 4 (16:46):
He's Tom Brady? Why not?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Does do you think Tom had statue approval, so.
Speaker 9 (16:55):
What I heard from being up here, he has not
seen it. I think mess the Craft seen it, but
Tom has not seen it. So but I was told
he'll like it. It looks like him, So we'll.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
See twelve feet twelve foot statue Tom Brady? Does anybody else?
Get anybody else get? Does Belichick getting a statue?
Speaker 9 (17:15):
Not right now, but I gotta imagine sometime down the line,
he's got to have a statue somewhere over here at
Jillette Stadium.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
When you went home, would your wife ask you more
about Tom Brady or Bill Belichick? As far as those
two those two individuals.
Speaker 9 (17:33):
My wife would probably ask about Tom, but it would
only be to get.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
To back in the day. Ask about Giselle. That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
How intense is preseason? As far as if you're a starter, like,
how do you if I'm looking at how you're approaching
that as a regular season game? Can you approach it
or have to approach it the same way?
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I think a veteran.
Speaker 9 (18:00):
And approaches it in the same way while still knowing
you're not going to play the whole game. But I
think it's always those little things you want to work
on coming into the season, whatever happened in the past season,
things you felt like you needed to get better at.
The preseason games of the time, the showcase it, Yeah,
you can do it in practice. I think it heightens
a little bit in a joint practice where you can
(18:21):
actually execute those things. But until you do some things
you want to work on in a game setting, you
don't really build that true confidence. So I think guys,
knowing you might get ten to thirty plays, whatever that is,
you know you have a limited amount of time to
kind of execute some of those things you want to
get better at.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
It felt like the Patriots used the first couple of
regular season games as their true preseason.
Speaker 9 (18:46):
We always talked about that that the first call it
month of the regular season was an extension of the preseason,
and that was strictly because we still needed to improve.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
And like I said, until you get in all those games, what's.
Speaker 9 (19:00):
The best group of five linemen, what's the best group
of four secondary players? Like, we were still always figuring
that out, and it was sometimes guys not playing the
whole game, it was guys getting in there.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Just so I think the coaches.
Speaker 9 (19:13):
Could evaluate what was the best group out there who
was the best player? Some training camp battles were close.
How do you make the exact decision right now? We're
still evaluating through that first month of the season, and
then once we got to October, it was like, Okay,
this is our team. Are we good? Do we need
to add? Do we need to go for in a trademarket?
(19:34):
Like how do we need to operate? And I think
that's how Belichick and that staff always kind of helped
us progress and get better.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
So we were playing our best football after Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
There's certain players who play better in practice than in
games and vice versa. Who was the guy on your
team that once you saw him in a game, you're like, damn,
I didn't see that in practice?
Speaker 4 (19:55):
You know who was like that?
Speaker 9 (19:56):
Jimmy g twenty sixteen, Tom gets uh suspended and we're
gonna start, and Jimmy's gonna start. Jimmy Garoppolo is gonna
start those first four games, and if we're being honest,
like training camp practice, it never kind of felt like okay,
here we go, like we're gonna be good. It was like,
all right, defensively, we're gonna need to do X, Y
(20:18):
and Z, and then we got out there opening in Arizona,
and Arizona was coming off a great season the year before,
and Jimmy went out there, played his butt off. And
then Week two against Miami he gets hurt. For the
first half, I think he threw for three or four touchdowns.
We always used to say Jimmy was a gamer. His
best football happened in the games, and it was pretty
(20:40):
cool to see that because you don't you don't always
get that from the quarterback position.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
Usually what you're seeing practice shows up in the game.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Devin mccordy a Football Night in America analyst and won
three Super Bowls with the Patriots, three times All Pro.
What do you assess with rookie quarterbacks now that you've
played the position, but now as an analyst, what should
we be looking for. Let's say Shador Sanders tonight against Carolina.
Speaker 9 (21:05):
I think one of the biggest things is what is
his command of the offense? Look side, does he look
like he's in control? Is he up there making some
checks or making some alerts? And then the execution. It's
obviously preseason. Game one is gonna be a lot of
I would say, simple plays that they've been running in practice.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
But The truth is, when you know you're a fifth
round draft pick and you're going again, you probably don't
get all of the reps.
Speaker 9 (21:29):
In practice, you don't get a ton, So how much
were you able to pick up without getting those reps?
And then is this smooth? Are we able to get
quarterback center exchange, get us in and out of the huddle,
execute simple plays, throw quick passes, get the ball out
of your hands.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Belichick, you just say it all the time.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
Our play our best plays don't start until the quarterback
gets the ball out of their hands, and whether it's
a handoff, whether it's throwing the ball.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
So those are the things you want to see.
Speaker 9 (21:54):
And then I was saying today's game, is he able
to make some of those all schedule plays the play
breaks down down? Does he have one, two or three
of those plays where you're like, man, that's a heck
of a play by him making a play extend and
making the right play at the end.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
What's it like when you're huddle breaks and then Peyton
Manning comes up to the line of scrimmage. I don't
know who else talked a lot, but you're hearing and
he's gesturing, And then what is your job as a
defensive back to interpret what he's saying or not saying.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Yeah, I remember, it's a different feeling when I first
got out there as a rookie and you're out there
with Peyton and he's doing all that talking.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I was getting nervous when I was a rookie. You're like,
is he coming this way? What does he take it?
What does he see? And then as a veteran it
turns into a mind game.
Speaker 9 (22:42):
It's like, Okay, we know what we're in, so we
know he knows that, so how can we give him
a different picture and then get to something else. And
for us it was always cool because we got that
same type.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Of work and practice with Brady.
Speaker 9 (22:55):
We knew we couldn't just give him the answers to
the test right away, so it was you know, I
think the coolest thing as a defender playing against whether
it was Peyton or Drew Brees or Aaron Rodgers, was
you knew they knew what you were in, so you
had to kind of play the mind game of Okay,
where should they go with the ball?
Speaker 4 (23:13):
I gotta be ready for that.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
And that's how we tried to play from a defensive
standpoint and I think you're starting to see that in
today's games when you go against the Josh Allens, the
Joe Burrows, the Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jacks. Those guys
are figuring out what other defenses are in and they're
plying to and it's fun to watch.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
What advice would you give Travis Hunter of trying to
play both sides.
Speaker 9 (23:38):
I don't know advice. I would give them the sake
to go do it. I think ultimately he'll see that
it's going to be more productive to be great at
one of those positions than it is to kind of
strain yourself to be doing back and forth. And I
think the truth is if he does, you know, find
a way to play both positions at a high frequency,
(23:59):
I think it will make him.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
I think he'll be a good.
Speaker 9 (24:01):
Player on both sides, but I think if he focuses
on one, he has a chance to be a great
player at either position. Honestly, like you watch his skill set,
he can do both. But I just my advice would be,
I think it's going to be really difficult, and I
don't think there's.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Enough upside to play on both sides at the ball
for him.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Did you ever give Belichick fake laughter because some of
your teammates they would say, oh, man, he's funny. You
should get to know him. He's really funny. But did
you feel like you kind of had to laugh sometimes
when he wasn't really that funny.
Speaker 9 (24:33):
Not really because behind closed doors, no cameras, Like we
got the uncensored Belichick. So the trash he would topic,
there was a certain kind of swag to him that
I don't think people see.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
But when we get in that meeting room and he's
talking to his.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Guys, well, give me give me an example here, can
you give me a family version?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Yeah, I mean I always laugh.
Speaker 9 (24:57):
We were in Buffalo in two thousand eighteen and they
were doing a kind of tribute to a lot of
those guys in the nineties that were on those teams
that went to four straight Super Bowls, and like there
was a stage out there was a Monday night game
stage and everything, and they kind of delayed us coming
out of the second half, and we come out and
we're walking together and he's like, I mean, we're out here,
(25:21):
We're celebrating four straight trips and no actual Super Bowl wins, Like,
what are we what are we doing here?
Speaker 4 (25:28):
In a little bit of it. I think he was
pissed because we're ready to get the second half going.
But like there was no fake laugh, Like I died
laughing because it was just yeah, of course, Bill, you
got all of the Super Bowls.
Speaker 9 (25:39):
But to me, it was that competitiveness that he didn't
always talk about. You didn't actually see it, but like
he was, like, he's competitive, he wants to be the best,
he wants to win those championships. He just doesn't talk
about it. And that to me was, you know, he
was somewhere in the nineties not getting to those games,
so he's probably still pissed about that and hold of
(25:59):
that shit.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
So that's what I've always loved about him.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Yeah, and I think what happens sometimes is when the
coach makes fun of or picks on, singles out one
of the stars, that helps with the rest of the
team going. Damn, he's going after Brady right now.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Oh, there's no doubt about it.
Speaker 9 (26:18):
And even from an opponent's standpoint, I remember Vince Wolford
used to always tell.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Bill, like, when you come in our meeting rooms.
Speaker 9 (26:25):
Because Bill always used to build up every team, no
matter who we were playing. That Wednesday, meeting, we would
watch a highlight tape and you would think like we
were playing Greek gods on Sunday. And then every once
in a while he would come in and he would
just tell us like, we're gonna kill this team.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
We're gonna destroy him.
Speaker 9 (26:40):
And you could see Vince Wolford were like it would
get him going, and he would always tell Bill like,
just come in and tell us that we're going to
destroy the team. I think it gives guys energy, and
it's true, like when you see that, and again I
always credit Tom because star players don't have to be
coachable and it's the right thing to do, but in
the NFL or any professional sport, it doesn't always happen.
(27:04):
And I always said that when I got there as
a rookie, I saw Bill coaching the heck out of
Tom and going after him, and it set the tone
like it scared me to want to mess up. And
we knew and every player operated knowing that the best
player got coach hard. That mean the rest of us
were gonna get coach hard. And it made us all better.
And you know, Tom could have been like I don't
want to.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
Be a part of this. I want to leave and
go elsewhere.
Speaker 9 (27:26):
But he took the coach and he got better, and
it held all of us to a certain standard that
we had to reach.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Bengals are playing their starters more in the preseason because
they get off to a poor start in the last
couple of years. Why are they doing this? Why didn't
they do this before? And do you think it'll help?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
I do think it'll help. I think it'll change the mentality.
Speaker 9 (27:50):
Does the twenty snaps you play maybe in two preseason
games is gonna dictate how you're gonna play the season.
Probably not from a skills standpoint in x's and zero,
but I think it changes the mentality of every time
we step on the field.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
It's important. This is what we're saying.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
We're saying we have to get better as a football
team by playing football. So we're gonna get better in
preseason game one, We're gonna get better in.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Preseason game two. Then in the regular season we're gonna
keep getting better.
Speaker 9 (28:18):
Whereas I think before it was kind of like, well,
these games aren't important, we don't need to do it.
And then you get out there and sometimes you play
teams like the Kansas City Chiefs who go out there
and play. In the preseason. They hit the ground running,
so you're like, okay, we'll catch up to them, but
they're starting to head and then.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Now you always start behind. So I credit Zach Taylor.
Speaker 9 (28:38):
For saying, you know what, what we've been doing isn't working.
I'm not gonna be arrogant and prideful and say, you
know what, this is my method and I'm sticking to it. No,
you know what, it's not working. We're not getting up
to the start we want. Let's go play, let's get better.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
And it looked good last night, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
It'll be Washington at New England tonight the unveiling of
the Tom Brady statue. Do you think he'll cry tonight?
Speaker 4 (29:02):
Devin, absolutely not. But one of my sons is coming up,
My nephew's coming up, so they might shut a teer.
Speaker 9 (29:08):
They're big Tom Brady fans, actually bigger Tom Brady fans
than they were of their dad and uncle.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
So they'll be really happy to be here today.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Would your wife cry at the trophy ceremony?
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Not? If she wants to still be married, to.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Have fun, And you know there's Brady still feels like
he can play.
Speaker 9 (29:32):
Why he still throws, so like you go and put
them behind in one of the best offensive lines and
keep a clean pocket. I still think he go out
there and give you forty to forty five passes a game.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
If he played for the Eagles. Right now, I'm biased.
Speaker 9 (29:47):
If Tom Brady plays for one of the best teams,
get super Bowl time, and if he does do it,
Howie Roseman, give me a call.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
I'll take another trip to the super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
You're ready to play too, you'll go with Tom.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
I'm ready. I'm going there the red zone only.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Thank you. We appreciate your time. Devin, have fun tonight.
Speaker 4 (30:05):
Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
That's Devin mccordy. Football Night in America. It'll be Patriots
and Washington coming up tonight. Tom Brady gets a big
statue there, Gizelle going to be there? Are the kids
going to be there? Does it need to be twelve
feet high? Maybe just regular size? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Paul, are we gonna play a guest that Brady statue?
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (30:30):
I'll give you two choices. Is it an action shot
or standing there heroic on the sideline type statue?
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Does Maybe it's him running out and saying LFG.
Speaker 8 (30:45):
Yeah, let's go I think it's a let's go statue. Yeah,
let's go, let's f and go.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
I was in the end zone and we were doing
a game Football Night in America doing the pregame, and
Brady came out. It was probably the season opener after
the I forget when it was, but he ran right
towards me and he's yelling LFG, let's f and go,
and it like he was running right at me, and
(31:14):
I'm like, this is going to be awkward, and I
just moved to the side and he kept running. I
guess all right, there you go, all right tongue. Hey Tom, thanks,
good to see. Yes, Morvin.
Speaker 10 (31:25):
Yeah, that was the routine every single game, especially the
ones I worked at Foxborough. He would run all one
hundred yards to the other end of the end zone,
let's bleep and go. Without also his statue, it's going
to be him holding a Lombardi trophy.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
It is wait, do you know this?
Speaker 5 (31:42):
I don't, oh, you know what, that's my guest.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Sorry, I don't think Roger'll let him do that. PARTI
trophy is copyright actually so and then sorry, then Belichick's
gonna want to do that. Then you have dueling statues
holding trophies.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Paul helmet off to show the hair up the crowd,
like Seaton said that pump up, fisted up thing.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Let's go, I did. That could be it, But I
think it'll be just him in the pocket, you know,
looking Tom Brady like, yes, Marvin, it's.
Speaker 10 (32:16):
Gonna be like him holding it right after the twenty
eighty three comeback, holding the trophy, holding a trophy after
the Atlanta falconsuper But.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
We won't know that.
Speaker 9 (32:27):
Now.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
I think they'll keep it simple. The real ones will,
the Falcons will. Oh no, Matt Ryan'll know yeah too soon. Okay,
let's take a break here, all right, Last golf of

I think he might be a two time Hall of
Famer songwriting and performing maybe, Yes, Marvin, can I do
two songs with him?

Yes?
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Of course you can.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
You do Bang on the drum and Hello It's me

half minutes. I think better.

Yeah, perfect, It's better for the audience. Yes, Baul Todd
Rudgren currently on tour through November.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Okay, all right, h we have best week in sports?
How about go around the room? Who had the best
week in sports? Todd?
Speaker 7 (34:03):
As they get ready to host the Mets for a
weekends series, I'm giving it to the Brewers. Six straight
wins since the first of August. They scored sixteen, eight
and fourteen last weekend at the Nationals seventeen forty four,
four games ahead in the NL Central over the Cubbies,
a top of the division.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Hinch seet O'Connor. Best week in sports? Uh, you know
what I'm gonna go. Cody Rhodes.
Speaker 8 (34:24):
Defeated John Cena and the big comeback SmackDown undisputed champion.
Speaker 5 (34:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
I'm still emotion. That's a big week for that lad
Well done, Cody, Yeah, Marvin, how about you.
Speaker 10 (34:35):
I'm gonna go to the team with the best logoings
in the MLB. Toronto Blue Jays won three straight and
now they're first in the Al East.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Okay, Paul, I'll go with Dodgers fans. Dodgers are always
in the mix for the World Series. They're not quite
as good as they were last year. At this point
in the season, they've outscored their opponents by seventy four
runs last year is one thirty at this point. And
Otani pitches four innings eight strikeouts. They're going to need
him in the postseas not a luxury. They need him.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
You have two pictures with at least three thousand strikeouts meeting.
It'll be Clayton Kershaw, Max Schuzer. Max Scherzer did this
in twenty twenty three versus Justin Verlander, Kurt Schilling and
Roger Clemens and seven Greg Maddox against Roger Clemens, six,
Don Sutton, Steve Carlton, nineteen eighty seven, Phil nicro Burton,
(35:27):
blind Levin nineteen eighty seven. Stat of the Day has
been brought to you by Panini America, the official trading
cards of the program. Grady in California.
Speaker 6 (35:36):
Hi, Grady, DP, my player to speak with you. Good morning, sir,
Good morning. Six foot a soft two fifteen soft, so
well really quick. On Fridays, you used to always play
Arcade Fire to wrap up the week, and I wonder
(35:58):
where that went. But that's not why I called. You
opened the show this morning talking about Drew Brees, by
the way, an incredible interview with him. I loved it,
but about how we meant what he meant to with city,
and I completely agree with you. It was a great,
great career and obviously in the post Katrina days, it
really brought the city back and it was incredible. But
(36:20):
it made me think about Post nine to eleven, and
immediately my thoughts went to the Yankees and that run
they had during the World Series post nine to eleven
and what those games meant in the Bronx.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
And how emotional that was.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
And obviously there's a lot of players, but I probably
point to Derek Jeter and what that really did to
bring the city back and bring the country back. But
then a few months after that. It's funny that you
just had that Patriot on and they're in Brady's getting
that statue tonight that a fourteen point underdog in the
Patriots going against the mighty greatest show on turf would
(36:58):
go in and beat that team. As the Patriots post
nine to eleven, I think that that team in particular
really brought the entire country back and was very, you know,
obviously very patriotic.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
I don't know if that brought people back. You know,
the Yankees with the World Series and President Bush went
to the mound, and I think that those were emotional.
I'm talking about a singular person and Drew Brees being
the quarterback of the Saints after Hurricane Katrina.
Speaker 8 (37:28):
Yeah, there's a moment that might not get enough recognition
for how awesome it was, especially because I'm not a
fan of this team, But I think people overlook sometimes.
Mike Piazza had a home run. I think it was
the first live sporting event back after nine to eleven.
It was like September twenty first, and he hit a
go ahead home run in Chase Stadium against the Braves.
(37:53):
That was kind of a pretty spectacular moment the place
went absolutely ballistic, and that was that was pretty special,
and it kind of gets overlooked the latter, overshadowed by
other moments, but that was a hell of a time
for him.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 10 (38:06):
And on top of what Breeze did after post Katrina,
the Saints were just terrible as a franchise. The fact
that the New Orleans Aints won a Super Bowl was
just as impressive as what he did after post Katrina.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
How about to stay in sports history, Paul.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Stay in sports history? Babe Ruth signed his final contract
of his career, ninety thousand dollars for a one year contract,
and Arthur ash Stadium was named.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
Nineteen seventy six, the White Sox wear shorts for the
first time in a doubleheader against the Royals, and nineteen
ninety two, the Dream Team wins the gold medal as
they rough up Croatia one seventeen to eighty five. Danny
in California, Hi, Danny, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 12 (38:52):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 2 (38:53):
Glad to talk to you, Sure Dan? Yeah?
Speaker 12 (38:57):
Six, yeah, yeah, five nine reorganized one ninety five. I
just wanted to talk to you about the bullfight. I
went recently went to a bullfight a couple of weeks ago.
It's a Portuguese bullfight, and they do it differently. They
put velcrow on the back of the bull. They do
still do all the bullfighting things, theatrics, if you will,
(39:19):
but instead of sticking swords, they stick a stick down
onto the belcrow and a flag comes out and everybody cheers.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
That's nice. Even the running of the bulls, I do
root for the bulls, and I have no interest in
running with the bulls because I'm not worried about me.
I'm worried about everybody around me. And all of a
sudden you run into somebody and you know, you get
trampled or they they squeeze you into, you know, some
corner there, some nook or cranny as you're running. I
(39:47):
would prefer to be up about I don't know, fifty
feet looking down on a balcony.
Speaker 6 (39:52):
Ty.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Let's go around the room. How about you tell us
what you learned on the program.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
You're not ready to give up on Anthony Richardson's got
too much talented. Potentially, you just need to see a
bigger sample.
Speaker 8 (40:00):
Size seatan There are different words for corn on the
cob and off.
Speaker 10 (40:05):
Marvin Verious special guests. Tonight will not be Fritzy All.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Drew Brees does not have a statue.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Todd, what did I learn?
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Lamar Jackson already had sixty one hundred career rushing yards.
He could end up reaching nine even ten thousand by
the time his career is done.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
It'd be crazy to think about a quarterback getting that
and a couple MVPs maybe gets the Super Bowl in there.
We've done it. Have a safe week and a great
weekend everybody. Thanks for joining us. Talk to you soon.
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's the final hour of the final day of the
week and it's a meat Friday. Come on in, we'll
talk some football. We got preseason football coming up tonight
and this weekend and being a meat Friday. Beer canned
chicken enchiladas, beer can duck enchiladas, ver days as squeets
(00:26):
that's Mexican street corn. That's off the cob. If it's
on the cob, then it's called elote Oh is that
the difference? Yes, as squeet days is off the cob,
elotee is on the cop.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Yes, Paul, you said duck enchiladas. Yeah, it seems like
there's a duck. Is a polarizing dish.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah, I'm not a ducker. Nope, No, I love it.
I had lollypomp lamb chops the other day, pretty good.
But duck.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Is it the taste or the animal?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I think it's the taste. Yeah, you can also, you know,
bring in the you know, a duck. It seems like
a nice person, nice guy.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Yeah, you appreciate him.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Yeah. Well, I've had people say up in Maine, hey,
duck hunting man, I go uh nah, I'm good. How
about I listen. I'll just listen for the shotgun blast there.
I'm not a hunter. I got fish and then I
catching release. I don't know. You can always just shoot
and release too. I just like to go. I don't
(01:38):
keep them. I just shoot them and let him run off.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
I'll chase him down after they fall.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Yeah, the little shoot and release.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
I had a friend of mine who came back. He
went big game hunting, he told me, but he spent money.
Where you go to these I don't know what they're
called compounds, farms where the animals are inside the fence
and then you go and hunt them down. And he
brought back something and I said, wow, I got it.
(02:05):
How did you get that? He goes, well, it's it's
an enclosed area. I said, that doesn't seem really fair.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
That's sporting.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Yeah, you know, just kind of like going into their
backyard there. Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
I once went with my uncle and a couple of
guys turkey hunting, and that seemed unfair. Turkeys don't seem fast.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
They weren't fast, and they can't fly.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
They could fly.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Ish oh well, not wellisht at them. They can't all right.
Final hour of the program. Yeh see, I just saw
a story recently about this. There's like a Texas big
game hunter the billionaire who got did did he go?
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Yeah, like some kind of like rare buffalo or something
he was hunting. I do I do root for you know,
when you have the uh but in Mexico, when they're
bullfighting in Spain, I do rot root for the bowl.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
I do.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I find myself, you know, defend yourself a little bit,
go get them.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Yes, Todd, you're anti matador.
Speaker 7 (03:09):
You want to you want you want to see the door.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
You know, I'm pro bowl. I'm pro bowl. You know,
it goes back to the Jordan years. You know, of
course the greatest Bowl of all time. They tried to
They tried to get him too. I do all of those.
Speaker 8 (03:21):
Things though, like when they're in the ring with the matador,
the bullfighting, the running of the bulls, all that. I'm
definitely team bull, like yeah goys, yeah, gotcha. Sorry, it
never ends well for the bull ever. But I do
like the underdog story there.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
My my family went to a bullfight, and so my
daughters are really young, and I think my wife went
in and thought, you know, maybe they used like rubber
swords or something, or like there there's you know, it's
not going to hurt them. And I wasn't on this vacation.
(03:57):
You had another one that I paid for, but I
was working at the Mothership and I just remember that
phone call and my three daughters are screaming in tears,
and my wife is emotional and she's like, why didn't
you tell me that they killed the bull? And I go,
what are you talking about? I'm not there, and it's
(04:20):
called a bullfight. I would assume that there could be blood.
They're like, oh my god, your daughters, they are so emotional.
I go, hon, how do you not know what's going
to happen in a bullfight? And I didn't do anything?
Why am I responsible because of a traumatic experience? I
(04:40):
didn't tell you about a bullfight? Yes, Dodd.
Speaker 7 (04:43):
Now do people cheer, you know, rigorously for the Matador?
How does that work?
Speaker 9 (04:46):
Like?
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I don't know if there's draftings odds on that.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
What if you had money on the Matador to win,
then you're not necessarily happy about the result there?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
What do you What do you think, Dodd?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
I think it's evenly distributed. Summer rooting for the bull.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Yeah, well, you know, these matadors are heroes. I mean
they're big time stars.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, that situation with your kids and the bull fighting,
it's kind of like there's a story about fifteen years
ago some sixth grade teachers showed her kids Titanic and
they thought it was a love story.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
What it is, Yeah, the first hour until she won't
let him get on the piece of wood there.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
They weren't prepared for the history of Titanic. All the
kids were shocked when the boat went down and Jack
died where.
Speaker 8 (05:27):
She had plenty of room to let him up. I
didn't save him, but she chose to let him do that.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I want to scooch on. Yeah, no, yes to was.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
It heroic or stupid?
Speaker 4 (05:37):
That?
Speaker 7 (05:37):
If that's true the way the movie portrayed the band
who is still playing as the ship is sinking, it's like,
good for them, they're trying to keep everybody calm.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
Why don't you go find a way to save yourself.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
So that's that is supposedly true. Well, the way till
the end they're playing the violin and yes, yeah, it's
kind of like you brought down that Darius Rucker concert
when you were playing. Yeah, and then he had to
breathe new life into it. I said, you know, that's
a great yes Marvin song.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
I'd prefer to be on the Titanic then to be there.
Speaker 8 (06:17):
I think of that woman that just called in and
like the there. There are people who like this was
their night out. They paid for tickets, probably a solid
price for those tickets, Yes, and they got treated to
a metally of that.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (06:31):
Some guy they'd never heard of got up there and
sang a couple of songs and I.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Totally I said one song. I said, just do one
song and then you go no, no, no, I'm going
to do too. I go, all right, once again, you
never ever listen.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Sometimes America thinks they got talented.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
In my head, I crushed it. I was in the shower, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 10 (06:51):
And the smartest thing Darius did was as soon as
Fritzy got off stage, he went to his hoo.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
He said, yes, let me let me get this audience back.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
Let's pretend that never happened.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
Yes, we aren't really giving Todd enough credit though, because,
as we've done well numerous times on the show now,
Todd usually doesn't follow the music. He usually just sings
at whatever pace and and sort of cadence that he wants.
He did a pretty good job of following the music
with Darius and.
Speaker 7 (07:23):
His and who could keep your hands in your pockets
that long talk about a Guinness record.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Okay, Darius told me that they were following Todd. Well,
they're professional music, but Todd was not following them. They
were because I had spies at the rehearsal and one
of the band members said, he can sing a little bit,
but he can't stay on the tune like you couldn't.
(07:50):
They were trying to adjust to you. Beat is just
a suggestion, Yeah, yeah, it's optional.
Speaker 7 (07:56):
I made some suggestions, like, you know, I want to
explain to him what I was thinking to make a.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Sound like the whole out of the radio. And they
kind of rolled their eyes about.
Speaker 7 (08:03):
Like who this kid's gonna tell the Darius Rucker band
how to play the music.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
And seafellas, Yes, this is my interpretation of this. Okay,
I'm thinking I start out here.
Speaker 5 (08:12):
Hey Joe, you're a little flat there.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Help me help me out on this. Give me a
little bit a little more snare drums are a little behind, guys.
Let's pick it out.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
I say, when I turn out the live when not
with me.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
That's when you bring it.
Speaker 7 (08:24):
Up a little bit.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Put me out.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Ye are we paying attention and we're trying to make
me look bad? What do we do?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
That's never gonna happen again? Though, never say never, no, no, no,
I'm gonna say I'm going to say never. Darius won't
say it, but I'll say it for him.
Speaker 7 (08:38):
I was hoping, I was he was going to reach
out and say, you know, we got a few more
gigs if you're interested.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
It really went over well in Bridgeport. If you want
to come with us, and.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
That call never, that will never happen. That will never
happen again. I give you credit.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
I call you all the time.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
What can I say?
Speaker 5 (09:00):
I don't build the.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Mines away?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Two?
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
You did that in front of like I don't know
how many thousands of people, probably six thousand people there.
What a legend?
Speaker 5 (09:22):
Wait, come on, bridge.
Speaker 10 (09:35):
Only small?
Speaker 6 (09:36):
I love.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
It sounds like you're wounded. That's all I got shot
in the leg.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Like these dudes just harmonized with Todd. They came in.
I'm backing vocals. It's still the coolest thing. It's still
it's unbelievable. As much fun as we have with it.
Speaker 7 (09:55):
But I will say this is usually followed by Simon
saying that was absolutely dreadful.
Speaker 5 (09:59):
You're kidding me. That was terrible.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
This is why Darius Rutger has such an incredible backup band.
They made you sound a little bit better than you
really are.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Palatable if yeah, say.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yes, I mean you got tons of confidence and zero awareness.
I mean I will give you credit for that. You
have so much confidence and no awareness whatsoever.
Speaker 10 (10:22):
Yes, Marvin, Right before they went to the second song,
he turns to you, he goes, I always pay my.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Bets, I know.
Speaker 6 (10:30):
And I.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Think he was surprised you were doing two songs initially,
and then I said they're both Hallan Oats songs and
he goes, all right, he goes, I don't do Hallan Oates.
I said, talk to either, but let him sing.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
Seeing that on the song list, that got very real
to me. I was already a little nervous. But I'm
waiting backstage and I'm like, okay, we're up the song six,
and then after song eight it says those two songs.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
I'm like, oh my, but but the hands in the pocket, Yeah,
that was terrible.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
That was a bad look. I think that was part
of the nerves.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Know.
Speaker 7 (11:00):
I didn't know what to do with myself. I couldn't
even believe I was It was like an out of
body experience. While I'm singing, I'm like looking at myself
from the audience's perspective and sing me on the big
screen that on.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
How is this possibly happening while I'm singing? So it's
very weird.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, uh, Darius in Milwaukee. Apparently tonight was special Guests.
Yes to put a.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Bow on the music topic. Titanic's band All four, stayed
on the boat that night. Wallace Hartley was a leader.
They did not get on the lifeboats when they were
offered it opportunity. The last song they played was Nearer
God to Thee and that's it.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Two three four.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
You don't see an opening on a boat.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
What I say, because you'll kiss, I kiss. That's when
you got to ramp it up. Come on, guys, let's
do it together.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Preseason football. Yes, Paulie overreacted after what he saw last night.
Now all of a sudden, huh with the Eagles found
their backup quarterback, and hey, what about this running back
and this wide receiver? You know who I focused on
was Jalen Milroe. He threw for sixty one yards. He
rushed for another thirty eight and that was the Seahawks
(12:10):
Raiders game. So I'm cautiously optimistic about Jalen Milroe with Seattle,
and it's going to take a little time there. He's
a project, but that could be one of those where
in a couple of years we look back and say,
when did they get him? What round did they get him?
(12:32):
But if you look at his numbers, he had forty
five passing touchdowns thirty three rushing touchdowns days at Alabama,
it's like Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts is like, oh yeah,
pretty good. We didn't he get replaced by Tua And
Jalen Milroe's very talented, but raw and a project there.
(12:55):
And I'm interested tonight to watch the Browns with Shador Sanders.
Instead of really eying on somebody telling me what they saw,
I want to watch and then I can decide how
he did. Because you're gonna get a lot of coverage.
You're gonna get people who are gonna spin it one
way or another that he looked great, or he didn't
look great, he looked confident, or he looked nervous. It's
(13:18):
probably going to be one extreme or the other. And
I hope we get a true sense. I hope that
when he's done, he says, hey, you know, I felt
okay about myself or I felt comfortable out there, because
that's what this is all about. You're making your first start.
And when's the last time you can think of a
(13:39):
quarterback making his preseason debut with this much attached to it,
like cam Ward. I don't think anybody's going to be
like I got to watch cam Ward, or you're going
to have an opinion of cam Ward after his debut
with Shador. I can't think of too many quarterbacks who
(13:59):
will get this my attention for a preseason debut. And
for those you know, there's been columns, certainly in Cleveland,
you've had I think radio shows talking about is he
set up to fail? I think he's set up to succeed,
to be there with the first team because he hasn't
had first team reps. If he came in in the
(14:23):
third quarter with the third string, then you're setting him
up to fail. But you put him in there with
your first team.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
Great.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
But I'm not attaching too much to this. I think
He's probably going to play like a guy who wasn't
drafted in the first couple of rounds. But I want
to see is that confidence still there when he gets
roughed up or fumbles or an interception or a sack.
That's what I'm looking for. But I'm not going to have.
(14:54):
You know, there's not going to be a referendum on
Monday where I know exactly who Shador Sanders is, because
this is evolving. This is fluid yeampolling, and it's.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
So dumb to think that the Browns would not want
this kid to succeed. Fifth round draft pick. He has
a five year contract because they control his rights, actually
a four year contract for four million dollars. If he
somehow becomes a starting quarterback in the NFL, they have
him under contract for the next four years for four
point two million dollars. He could solve all their financial troubles.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Devin mccordy Football Night in America and les's three time
Super Bowl champ with the Patriots, and he is in
Foxborough and Tom Brady is getting a statue. It's going
to be twelve feet. Why does Brady need a twelve
foot statue? Devin?
Speaker 4 (16:46):
He's Tom Brady? Why not?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Does do you think Tom had statue approval, so.
Speaker 9 (16:55):
What I heard from being up here, he has not
seen it. I think mess the Craft seen it, but
Tom has not seen it. So but I was told
he'll like it. It looks like him, So we'll.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
See twelve feet twelve foot statue Tom Brady? Does anybody else?
Get anybody else get? Does Belichick getting a statue?
Speaker 9 (17:15):
Not right now, but I gotta imagine sometime down the line,
he's got to have a statue somewhere over here at
Jillette Stadium.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
When you went home, would your wife ask you more
about Tom Brady or Bill Belichick? As far as those
two those two individuals.
Speaker 9 (17:33):
My wife would probably ask about Tom, but it would
only be to get.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
To back in the day. Ask about Giselle. That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
How intense is preseason? As far as if you're a starter, like,
how do you if I'm looking at how you're approaching
that as a regular season game? Can you approach it
or have to approach it the same way?
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I think a veteran.
Speaker 9 (18:00):
And approaches it in the same way while still knowing
you're not going to play the whole game. But I
think it's always those little things you want to work
on coming into the season, whatever happened in the past season,
things you felt like you needed to get better at.
The preseason games of the time, the showcase it, Yeah,
you can do it in practice. I think it heightens
a little bit in a joint practice where you can
(18:21):
actually execute those things. But until you do some things
you want to work on in a game setting, you
don't really build that true confidence. So I think guys,
knowing you might get ten to thirty plays, whatever that is,
you know you have a limited amount of time to
kind of execute some of those things you want to
get better at.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
It felt like the Patriots used the first couple of
regular season games as their true preseason.
Speaker 9 (18:46):
We always talked about that that the first call it
month of the regular season was an extension of the preseason,
and that was strictly because we still needed to improve.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
And like I said, until you get in all those games, what's.
Speaker 9 (19:00):
The best group of five linemen, what's the best group
of four secondary players? Like, we were still always figuring
that out, and it was sometimes guys not playing the
whole game, it was guys getting in there.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Just so I think the coaches.
Speaker 9 (19:13):
Could evaluate what was the best group out there who
was the best player? Some training camp battles were close.
How do you make the exact decision right now? We're
still evaluating through that first month of the season, and
then once we got to October, it was like, Okay,
this is our team. Are we good? Do we need
to add? Do we need to go for in a trademarket?
(19:34):
Like how do we need to operate? And I think
that's how Belichick and that staff always kind of helped
us progress and get better.
Speaker 4 (19:41):
So we were playing our best football after Thanksgiving.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
There's certain players who play better in practice than in
games and vice versa. Who was the guy on your
team that once you saw him in a game, you're like, damn,
I didn't see that in practice?
Speaker 4 (19:55):
You know who was like that?
Speaker 9 (19:56):
Jimmy g twenty sixteen, Tom gets uh suspended and we're
gonna start, and Jimmy's gonna start. Jimmy Garoppolo is gonna
start those first four games, and if we're being honest,
like training camp practice, it never kind of felt like okay,
here we go, like we're gonna be good. It was like,
all right, defensively, we're gonna need to do X, Y
(20:18):
and Z, and then we got out there opening in Arizona,
and Arizona was coming off a great season the year before,
and Jimmy went out there, played his butt off. And
then Week two against Miami he gets hurt. For the
first half, I think he threw for three or four touchdowns.
We always used to say Jimmy was a gamer. His
best football happened in the games, and it was pretty
(20:40):
cool to see that because you don't you don't always
get that from the quarterback position.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
Usually what you're seeing practice shows up in the game.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Devin mccordy a Football Night in America analyst and won
three Super Bowls with the Patriots, three times All Pro.
What do you assess with rookie quarterbacks now that you've
played the position, but now as an analyst, what should
we be looking for. Let's say Shador Sanders tonight against Carolina.
Speaker 9 (21:05):
I think one of the biggest things is what is
his command of the offense? Look side, does he look
like he's in control? Is he up there making some
checks or making some alerts? And then the execution. It's
obviously preseason. Game one is gonna be a lot of
I would say, simple plays that they've been running in practice.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
But The truth is, when you know you're a fifth
round draft pick and you're going again, you probably don't
get all of the reps.
Speaker 9 (21:29):
In practice, you don't get a ton, So how much
were you able to pick up without getting those reps?
And then is this smooth? Are we able to get
quarterback center exchange, get us in and out of the huddle,
execute simple plays, throw quick passes, get the ball out
of your hands.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Belichick, you just say it all the time.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
Our play our best plays don't start until the quarterback
gets the ball out of their hands, and whether it's
a handoff, whether it's throwing the ball.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
So those are the things you want to see.
Speaker 9 (21:54):
And then I was saying today's game, is he able
to make some of those all schedule plays the play
breaks down down? Does he have one, two or three
of those plays where you're like, man, that's a heck
of a play by him making a play extend and
making the right play at the end.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
What's it like when you're huddle breaks and then Peyton
Manning comes up to the line of scrimmage. I don't
know who else talked a lot, but you're hearing and
he's gesturing, And then what is your job as a
defensive back to interpret what he's saying or not saying.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
Yeah, I remember, it's a different feeling when I first
got out there as a rookie and you're out there
with Peyton and he's doing all that talking.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I was getting nervous when I was a rookie. You're like,
is he coming this way? What does he take it?
What does he see? And then as a veteran it
turns into a mind game.
Speaker 9 (22:42):
It's like, Okay, we know what we're in, so we
know he knows that, so how can we give him
a different picture and then get to something else. And
for us it was always cool because we got that
same type.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Of work and practice with Brady.
Speaker 9 (22:55):
We knew we couldn't just give him the answers to
the test right away, so it was you know, I
think the coolest thing as a defender playing against whether
it was Peyton or Drew Brees or Aaron Rodgers, was
you knew they knew what you were in, so you
had to kind of play the mind game of Okay,
where should they go with the ball?
Speaker 4 (23:13):
I gotta be ready for that.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
And that's how we tried to play from a defensive
standpoint and I think you're starting to see that in
today's games when you go against the Josh Allens, the
Joe Burrows, the Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jacks. Those guys
are figuring out what other defenses are in and they're
plying to and it's fun to watch.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
What advice would you give Travis Hunter of trying to
play both sides.
Speaker 9 (23:38):
I don't know advice. I would give them the sake
to go do it. I think ultimately he'll see that
it's going to be more productive to be great at
one of those positions than it is to kind of
strain yourself to be doing back and forth. And I
think the truth is if he does, you know, find
a way to play both positions at a high frequency,
(23:59):
I think it will make him.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
I think he'll be a good.
Speaker 9 (24:01):
Player on both sides, but I think if he focuses
on one, he has a chance to be a great
player at either position. Honestly, like you watch his skill set,
he can do both. But I just my advice would be,
I think it's going to be really difficult, and I
don't think there's.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Enough upside to play on both sides at the ball
for him.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Did you ever give Belichick fake laughter because some of
your teammates they would say, oh, man, he's funny. You
should get to know him. He's really funny. But did
you feel like you kind of had to laugh sometimes
when he wasn't really that funny.
Speaker 9 (24:33):
Not really because behind closed doors, no cameras, Like we
got the uncensored Belichick. So the trash he would topic,
there was a certain kind of swag to him that
I don't think people see.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
But when we get in that meeting room and he's
talking to his.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Guys, well, give me give me an example here, can
you give me a family version?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Yeah, I mean I always laugh.
Speaker 9 (24:57):
We were in Buffalo in two thousand eighteen and they
were doing a kind of tribute to a lot of
those guys in the nineties that were on those teams
that went to four straight Super Bowls, and like there
was a stage out there was a Monday night game
stage and everything, and they kind of delayed us coming
out of the second half, and we come out and
we're walking together and he's like, I mean, we're out here,
(25:21):
We're celebrating four straight trips and no actual Super Bowl wins, Like,
what are we what are we doing here?
Speaker 4 (25:28):
In a little bit of it. I think he was
pissed because we're ready to get the second half going.
But like there was no fake laugh, Like I died
laughing because it was just yeah, of course, Bill, you
got all of the Super Bowls.
Speaker 9 (25:39):
But to me, it was that competitiveness that he didn't
always talk about. You didn't actually see it, but like
he was, like, he's competitive, he wants to be the best,
he wants to win those championships. He just doesn't talk
about it. And that to me was, you know, he
was somewhere in the nineties not getting to those games,
so he's probably still pissed about that and hold of
(25:59):
that shit.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
So that's what I've always loved about him.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Yeah, and I think what happens sometimes is when the
coach makes fun of or picks on, singles out one
of the stars, that helps with the rest of the
team going. Damn, he's going after Brady right now.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Oh, there's no doubt about it.
Speaker 9 (26:18):
And even from an opponent's standpoint, I remember Vince Wolford
used to always tell.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Bill, like, when you come in our meeting rooms.
Speaker 9 (26:25):
Because Bill always used to build up every team, no
matter who we were playing. That Wednesday, meeting, we would
watch a highlight tape and you would think like we
were playing Greek gods on Sunday. And then every once
in a while he would come in and he would
just tell us like, we're gonna kill this team.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
We're gonna destroy him.
Speaker 9 (26:40):
And you could see Vince Wolford were like it would
get him going, and he would always tell Bill like,
just come in and tell us that we're going to
destroy the team. I think it gives guys energy, and
it's true, like when you see that, and again I
always credit Tom because star players don't have to be
coachable and it's the right thing to do, but in
the NFL or any professional sport, it doesn't always happen.
(27:04):
And I always said that when I got there as
a rookie, I saw Bill coaching the heck out of
Tom and going after him, and it set the tone
like it scared me to want to mess up. And
we knew and every player operated knowing that the best
player got coach hard. That mean the rest of us
were gonna get coach hard. And it made us all better.
And you know, Tom could have been like I don't
want to.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
Be a part of this. I want to leave and
go elsewhere.
Speaker 9 (27:26):
But he took the coach and he got better, and
it held all of us to a certain standard that
we had to reach.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
Bengals are playing their starters more in the preseason because
they get off to a poor start in the last
couple of years. Why are they doing this? Why didn't
they do this before? And do you think it'll help?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
I do think it'll help. I think it'll change the mentality.
Speaker 9 (27:50):
Does the twenty snaps you play maybe in two preseason
games is gonna dictate how you're gonna play the season.
Probably not from a skills standpoint in x's and zero,
but I think it changes the mentality of every time
we step on the field.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
It's important. This is what we're saying.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
We're saying we have to get better as a football
team by playing football. So we're gonna get better in
preseason game one, We're gonna get better in.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Preseason game two. Then in the regular season we're gonna
keep getting better.
Speaker 9 (28:18):
Whereas I think before it was kind of like, well,
these games aren't important, we don't need to do it.
And then you get out there and sometimes you play
teams like the Kansas City Chiefs who go out there
and play. In the preseason. They hit the ground running,
so you're like, okay, we'll catch up to them, but
they're starting to head and then.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Now you always start behind. So I credit Zach Taylor.
Speaker 9 (28:38):
For saying, you know what, what we've been doing isn't working.
I'm not gonna be arrogant and prideful and say, you
know what, this is my method and I'm sticking to it. No,
you know what, it's not working. We're not getting up
to the start we want. Let's go play, let's get better.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
And it looked good last night, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
It'll be Washington at New England tonight the unveiling of
the Tom Brady statue. Do you think he'll cry tonight?
Speaker 4 (29:02):
Devin, absolutely not. But one of my sons is coming up,
My nephew's coming up, so they might shut a teer.
Speaker 9 (29:08):
They're big Tom Brady fans, actually bigger Tom Brady fans
than they were of their dad and uncle.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
So they'll be really happy to be here today.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Would your wife cry at the trophy ceremony?
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Not? If she wants to still be married, to.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Have fun, And you know there's Brady still feels like
he can play.
Speaker 9 (29:32):
Why he still throws, so like you go and put
them behind in one of the best offensive lines and
keep a clean pocket. I still think he go out
there and give you forty to forty five passes a game.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
If he played for the Eagles. Right now, I'm biased.
Speaker 9 (29:47):
If Tom Brady plays for one of the best teams,
get super Bowl time, and if he does do it,
Howie Roseman, give me a call.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
I'll take another trip to the super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
You're ready to play too, you'll go with Tom.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
I'm ready. I'm going there the red zone only.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Thank you. We appreciate your time. Devin, have fun tonight.
Speaker 4 (30:05):
Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
That's Devin mccordy. Football Night in America. It'll be Patriots
and Washington coming up tonight. Tom Brady gets a big
statue there, Gizelle going to be there? Are the kids
going to be there? Does it need to be twelve
feet high? Maybe just regular size? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Paul, are we gonna play a guest that Brady statue?
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (30:30):
I'll give you two choices. Is it an action shot
or standing there heroic on the sideline type statue?
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Does Maybe it's him running out and saying LFG.
Speaker 8 (30:45):
Yeah, let's go I think it's a let's go statue. Yeah,
let's go, let's f and go.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
I was in the end zone and we were doing
a game Football Night in America doing the pregame, and
Brady came out. It was probably the season opener after
the I forget when it was, but he ran right
towards me and he's yelling LFG, let's f and go,
and it like he was running right at me, and
(31:14):
I'm like, this is going to be awkward, and I
just moved to the side and he kept running. I
guess all right, there you go, all right tongue. Hey Tom, thanks,
good to see. Yes, Morvin.
Speaker 10 (31:25):
Yeah, that was the routine every single game, especially the
ones I worked at Foxborough. He would run all one
hundred yards to the other end of the end zone,
let's bleep and go. Without also his statue, it's going
to be him holding a Lombardi trophy.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
It is wait, do you know this?
Speaker 5 (31:42):
I don't, oh, you know what, that's my guest.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Sorry, I don't think Roger'll let him do that. PARTI
trophy is copyright actually so and then sorry, then Belichick's
gonna want to do that. Then you have dueling statues
holding trophies.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Paul helmet off to show the hair up the crowd,
like Seaton said that pump up, fisted up thing.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Let's go, I did. That could be it, But I
think it'll be just him in the pocket, you know,
looking Tom Brady like, yes, Marvin, it's.
Speaker 10 (32:16):
Gonna be like him holding it right after the twenty
eighty three comeback, holding the trophy, holding a trophy after
the Atlanta falconsuper But.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
We won't know that.
Speaker 9 (32:27):
Now.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
I think they'll keep it simple. The real ones will,
the Falcons will. Oh no, Matt Ryan'll know yeah too soon. Okay,
let's take a break here, all right, Last golf of
phone calls? What we learn? What's in store for Monday?

Speaker 2 (33:30):
I think he might be a two time Hall of
Famer songwriting and performing maybe, Yes, Marvin, can I do
two songs with him?
Speaker 4 (33:36):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Of course you can.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
You do Bang on the drum and Hello It's me
oh Hello's music.

half minutes. I think better.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Yeah, perfect, It's better for the audience. Yes, Baul Todd
Rudgren currently on tour through November.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Okay, all right, h we have best week in sports?
How about go around the room? Who had the best
week in sports? Todd?
Speaker 7 (34:03):
As they get ready to host the Mets for a
weekends series, I'm giving it to the Brewers. Six straight
wins since the first of August. They scored sixteen, eight
and fourteen last weekend at the Nationals seventeen forty four,
four games ahead in the NL Central over the Cubbies,
a top of the division.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Hinch seet O'Connor. Best week in sports? Uh, you know
what I'm gonna go. Cody Rhodes.
Speaker 8 (34:24):
Defeated John Cena and the big comeback SmackDown undisputed champion.
Speaker 5 (34:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
I'm still emotion. That's a big week for that lad
Well done, Cody, Yeah, Marvin, how about you.
Speaker 10 (34:35):
I'm gonna go to the team with the best logoings
in the MLB. Toronto Blue Jays won three straight and
now they're first in the Al East.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Okay, Paul, I'll go with Dodgers fans. Dodgers are always
in the mix for the World Series. They're not quite
as good as they were last year. At this point
in the season, they've outscored their opponents by seventy four
runs last year is one thirty at this point. And
Otani pitches four innings eight strikeouts. They're going to need
him in the postseas not a luxury. They need him.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
You have two pictures with at least three thousand strikeouts meeting.
It'll be Clayton Kershaw, Max Schuzer. Max Scherzer did this
in twenty twenty three versus Justin Verlander, Kurt Schilling and
Roger Clemens and seven Greg Maddox against Roger Clemens, six,
Don Sutton, Steve Carlton, nineteen eighty seven, Phil nicro Burton,
(35:27):
blind Levin nineteen eighty seven. Stat of the Day has
been brought to you by Panini America, the official trading
cards of the program. Grady in California.
Speaker 6 (35:36):
Hi, Grady, DP, my player to speak with you. Good morning, sir,
Good morning. Six foot a soft two fifteen soft, so
well really quick. On Fridays, you used to always play
Arcade Fire to wrap up the week, and I wonder
(35:58):
where that went. But that's not why I called. You
opened the show this morning talking about Drew Brees, by
the way, an incredible interview with him. I loved it,
but about how we meant what he meant to with city,
and I completely agree with you. It was a great,
great career and obviously in the post Katrina days, it
really brought the city back and it was incredible. But
(36:20):
it made me think about Post nine to eleven, and
immediately my thoughts went to the Yankees and that run
they had during the World Series post nine to eleven
and what those games meant in the Bronx.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
And how emotional that was.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
And obviously there's a lot of players, but I probably
point to Derek Jeter and what that really did to
bring the city back and bring the country back. But
then a few months after that. It's funny that you
just had that Patriot on and they're in Brady's getting
that statue tonight that a fourteen point underdog in the
Patriots going against the mighty greatest show on turf would
(36:58):
go in and beat that team. As the Patriots post
nine to eleven, I think that that team in particular
really brought the entire country back and was very, you know,
obviously very patriotic.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
I don't know if that brought people back. You know,
the Yankees with the World Series and President Bush went
to the mound, and I think that those were emotional.
I'm talking about a singular person and Drew Brees being
the quarterback of the Saints after Hurricane Katrina.
Speaker 8 (37:28):
Yeah, there's a moment that might not get enough recognition
for how awesome it was, especially because I'm not a
fan of this team, But I think people overlook sometimes.
Mike Piazza had a home run. I think it was
the first live sporting event back after nine to eleven.
It was like September twenty first, and he hit a
go ahead home run in Chase Stadium against the Braves.
(37:53):
That was kind of a pretty spectacular moment the place
went absolutely ballistic, and that was that was pretty special,
and it kind of gets overlooked the latter, overshadowed by
other moments, but that was a hell of a time
for him.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 10 (38:06):
And on top of what Breeze did after post Katrina,
the Saints were just terrible as a franchise. The fact
that the New Orleans Aints won a Super Bowl was
just as impressive as what he did after post Katrina.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
How about to stay in sports history, Paul.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Stay in sports history? Babe Ruth signed his final contract
of his career, ninety thousand dollars for a one year contract,
and Arthur ash Stadium was named.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
Nineteen seventy six, the White Sox wear shorts for the
first time in a doubleheader against the Royals, and nineteen
ninety two, the Dream Team wins the gold medal as
they rough up Croatia one seventeen to eighty five. Danny
in California, Hi, Danny, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 12 (38:52):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 2 (38:53):
Glad to talk to you, Sure Dan? Yeah?
Speaker 12 (38:57):
Six, yeah, yeah, five nine reorganized one ninety five. I
just wanted to talk to you about the bullfight. I
went recently went to a bullfight a couple of weeks ago.
It's a Portuguese bullfight, and they do it differently. They
put velcrow on the back of the bull. They do
still do all the bullfighting things, theatrics, if you will,
(39:19):
but instead of sticking swords, they stick a stick down
onto the belcrow and a flag comes out and everybody cheers.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
That's nice. Even the running of the bulls, I do
root for the bulls, and I have no interest in
running with the bulls because I'm not worried about me.
I'm worried about everybody around me. And all of a
sudden you run into somebody and you know, you get
trampled or they they squeeze you into, you know, some
corner there, some nook or cranny as you're running. I
(39:47):
would prefer to be up about I don't know, fifty
feet looking down on a balcony.
Speaker 6 (39:52):
Ty.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Let's go around the room. How about you tell us
what you learned on the program.
Speaker 7 (39:56):
You're not ready to give up on Anthony Richardson's got
too much talented. Potentially, you just need to see a
bigger sample.
Speaker 8 (40:00):
Size seatan There are different words for corn on the
cob and off.
Speaker 10 (40:05):
Marvin Verious special guests. Tonight will not be Fritzy All.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Drew Brees does not have a statue.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Todd, what did I learn?
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Lamar Jackson already had sixty one hundred career rushing yards.
He could end up reaching nine even ten thousand by
the time his career is done.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
It'd be crazy to think about a quarterback getting that
and a couple MVPs maybe gets the Super Bowl in there.
We've done it. Have a safe week and a great
weekend everybody. Thanks for joining us. Talk to you soon.
