Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We have a new receiver who's making the most money
in the NFL. No surprise, it's Justin Jefferson. At deal
got signed, agreed to today four years, one hundred and
forty million dollars. So the going rate is thirty five
million dollars right now. If you're Jerry Jones or Mike Brown.
(00:24):
Mike Brown with the Bengals with Jamar Chase and Jerry
Jones with Cede Lamb, you're probably going, oh no, because
you still have to get some other players signed, and
certainly with Mikeaeh Parsons and Dak Prescott. You have the
mandatory mini camps that start this week for ten teams.
We didn't know what happens in a mandatory mini camp.
(00:47):
I think it's just basically, hey, can we get kind
of a look, see see how your your summer's going.
How about we weigh in here. How about we just
checked see how's your mind? How's your how you feeling?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
I just look at you.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Instead of players used to show up at training camp
to get in shape. The old NFL, the old AFL,
even when it came to baseball, players would show up
at spring training to then get in shape during spring training.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Now you're expected to be in shape ready to go.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Yeah, Steeden, could you imagine that there was actually a
time where it dawned on somebody. You know, if I
just stay in shape all the time, I might be
a better athlete. Nah, you show up the training camp
and all of a sudden, it's like, you know, I
wonder if I started this like two weeks before training
camp if I would do But what about a month?
Hold on a sego? What if I just did this
(01:42):
all off season? I stayed in shape.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
What if I hired somebody to help me stay in shape?
Speaker 5 (01:46):
What?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Do you guys think lifting weights would help? You think
we should? Okay, Okay, people had to think of that.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I know. So ten teams have mandatory minting camps this week.
What if I showed up already in shape? Do you
think I would be a start of the Oilers meet
the Stars they head to the Stanley Cup final versus
the Panthers and the mileage between those two cities. By
the way, the Florida Panthers are in Sunrise, Florida, Edmonton
to Sunrise, it's two and forty the longest distance between
(02:16):
opponents in Stanley Cup Final history.
Speaker 7 (02:20):
Startup to day, startup the day, stat of the day,
start of the day, statu to day startup today, start
of the day.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Start stat of the day. Brought to you by Panini America.
The official official training cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Operators standing by sitting by Tyler, take your phone calls,
pull question. For the final hour, the program is going
to be what seat O'Connor? By the way, the action
continues at Roland Garros French Open Women's and men's semi finals.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Who needs to win a title?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Den Jason Tatum, Luka, Doncic or Connor McDavid. Connor McDavid
Right now, Jason Tatum still holding strong out about thirty
nine percent of the which just Connor McDavid just behind him.
Not a lot of pressure on Luca apparently.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, Jason Tatum has been here before. I understand that
We're like, okay, win a title. Okay, yeah, you won,
you went to the Eastern Conference finals, went to an
NBA final. Now win the finals and then we move on.
We did this with Yannis, we did this with Joker.
We're not doing this with Joe Ellenbiid. Yet we're not
going to do this with Luca, but with Jason Tatum
(03:29):
all of a sudden, we'll move on.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
He got his title, yes, maar.
Speaker 8 (03:33):
And also Luca and the Mavericks, they're the fifth seed.
I think people forget that. In the Celtics they won
sixty four games, so they're supposed to be here.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yep, good points there. By the way.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
After dominating women's college basketball, everybody was excited Caitlin Clark
was going into the WNBA. Now, everybody was excited except
for her peers. She's been called out, she's been criticized
and cheap shots there and she's only been in the
league for a little more than a month. Veteran players
don't take a backseat to an unproven rookie. And by
(04:05):
unproven rookie, it's what do you do when you get in,
It's not what you once did. I go back to
when Tiger Woods was turning pro and there were two
players on tour who I was around when they said, oh, yeah,
let's see what he does now against the pros. And
this is when Tiger said he won a tournament with
his sea game. Oh these players were living. They quickly
(04:26):
reverse course on that because they realized that Tiger did
win with his Sea game. Lebron James had doubters when
he came out of high school. You call yourself the
chosen one. Okay, let me see what you got chosen one.
So players aren't going to take it easy on Caitlin Clark. Well,
you talk trash, We talk trash. You get physical, we
get physical. They're there to lock you down. They're there
(04:48):
to light you up. They're there to knock you down.
They're not there to help you up. And you saw
that this past weekend when you had and it's not
just one play.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
You have to look at a series of plays.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Between Caitlyn Clark and Kennedy Carter because they were going
at it and Kitlyn Clark she can dish it out,
and Kennedy Carter wanted to see if she could take
it as well. She was not going to answer any
questions about Caitlyn Clark Angel Reese ar teammate. They were
not going to answer any questions here. But Caitlin Clark
was asked about the hip check by Kennedy Carter.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Yeah, it wasn't.
Speaker 7 (05:25):
Expected hit, but I think it's just like just respond
come down while you played the hockey, and it is
what it is. It's a physical game. Go make the
free throw and then a secute on offense. And I
feel like that's kind of what we did.
Speaker 9 (05:38):
But you know, it is what it is.
Speaker 7 (05:40):
I gonna sound.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yeah, I don't know it is what it is because
it isn't what it is because it was a cheap shot.
It wasn't a basketball play. But you're putting the ball
in play and you know she's coming up on you.
You know has a B word that is in your
direction and is coming right back at her. You know
that there's no place for that. But I do understand
(06:05):
you're going to go back and forth and all of
a sudden you call me something, I'm gonna call you something.
I'm gonna hit a jumper and I'm going to knock
you down. Not a good look, but it does give
you that you know, there's passion attached to this, the
physicality of this, that they're not backing down. Now it's
up to Caitlin Clark to not back down. And look,
(06:25):
she looks tired, and rightfully so. Because they played eleven
games in twenty days. That's two more games than any
other team. She had three points in the loss to
New York yesterday. This is going to get a little
bit longer for her, and then they'll be the Olympic
break and then we'll see what happens after that. I'm
curious the following season. But look, when Juju Watkins comes in,
(06:49):
when Page Becker's comes in, they're going to be people.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Testing them as well.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
But that shows the growth of the game that players
coming in and these players who've been around for you know,
ten to fifteen years, now all of a sudden, you're
saving our league. We've been playing here for a long time.
Now you're getting eyeballs. Now people have an opinion on
the WNBA. Kevin in Ohio, Hi Kevin, what's on your
(07:15):
mind today?
Speaker 10 (07:16):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (07:16):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
How are you good?
Speaker 6 (07:17):
But five seventy post cancer one eighty nine, so I'm
I'm working on that part.
Speaker 10 (07:26):
Anyhow.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
You gave examples of the Caitlin Clark thing, but you
had to go back forty years, and I don't think
you pointed out any real recent attacks on rookies of
this magnitude. I mean, clearly, I believe that it's been
made about race. The media has made it about race.
(07:51):
The only one that hasn't made it about race. Is
maybe Caitlin Clark and yourself, But I don't know. I
think it's I think it's blatant that it just had
no place in basketball, and I don't think I recall
any professional NBA players pulling that kind of stunt, you know,
(08:13):
with the elbows and the blind sided hip check, and
it's all on the heels of uh oh in the
celebration from from from the other player clearly indicates to
me that it's it's all about you know, uh. The
(08:33):
narrative that's been pushed by uh that this's certain people
in the media.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Well, Angel Reese is applauding that Kaitlyn Clark got knocked down.
I don't know what else is going on with this.
I don't know what else has said. Angel revees clearly
is jealous of Kaitlyn Clark. She wins the national title,
she doesn't celebrate with her teammates. She wants to make
sure Kaitlyn Clark sees what she's doing by mocking her.
So she is bothered by Caitlyn Clark, that Caitlyn Clark
(09:07):
gets all this attention. Caitlyn Clark's a better bounceketball player,
people come to see Caitlyn Clark angel reeves can put
up ten points and ten rebounds and does nothing exciting.
Now social media, she's become a star. Good for her,
But I know people want to make it race because
it's all this white girl from Iowa comes in and
(09:29):
all of a sudden, these black players aren't embracing her.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
And look, I get it. I understand that.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I try to look at this fairly, and that is
you have a great player coming in, she's the savior.
Does the role of being white play a role?
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Sure? It does not blind to that.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I just don't know if everybody dislikes her because the
media treated her differently, the way she plays, the way
she acts, favoritism. I mean, I gets I understand this.
You know, all of these players who've been in the WNBA, like, oh, okay,
you're the savior here, let's see what you do.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
How about to knock you on your rear end.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
No one has come into the WNBA with this much
fanfare in the history of the WNBA. There have been
better players or players that were well recognized, but this
has been a social media phenomena, and Caitlin Clark is
not an angel in all of this because she does
go back and forth as well, and she talks trash
(10:31):
as well, and she's used to getting calls that she's
not getting. Now there's a frustration level. I understand that.
But I brought up the fact that Michael Jordan, the
greatest player in the history of the game, he got
beat up when he came into the NBA. That Caitlin
Clark coming into the WNBA, you know that might be
(10:51):
the version of the Jordan rules. They're going to rough
you up. And Jordan responded, it'll be up to Caitlin
Clark because if not, if you let them punk you,
they will continue to do that.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:05):
Mark Charles Barkley has a great story about Maurice Lucas
elbowing him really hard in the stomach and he elbows
and back, and Maurice Lucas says to him, I just
wanted to see what you were made of. So it's basically,
I know your top five pick and all that stuff
you got, the commercials and the Nike We're about to
see what you're really about when you get up to
a man's league.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Chimo in Virginia Beach, Hey, Keimo, Hey, Danny, Hey, bud.
Speaker 10 (11:32):
Oh I'm sorry. Hey, you know, the best of the
worst the weekend. The best was the this whole Caitlin Calk.
The women are just playing like freaking competitors.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
You know what.
Speaker 10 (11:42):
We got too many prima donnas running around in the
men's world. Hey to be sexist, but anyway, the worst
of the wish has just happened. Minutes ago. You're telling
us you got a family member having a stroke. Picket
God bless mama. But did y'all just see the men
a display casket or something?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
No, no, no, no, he survived. But it was a
family member who was having a stroke as we're picking
out my mom's casket, and I was joking the funeral
director was kind of sizing up my brother. He wasn't
but he went to the emergency room and and he
is alive. He is is well. But yeah, it did
happen as we're picking out my mom's casket. We had
(12:24):
to laugh later, we didn't laugh in the moment. Uh,
Brandon and tallahassee, Hey Brandon, what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (12:32):
Hey GP, how you doing good?
Speaker 5 (12:35):
I have a best and a bester of the weekend.
Best of the weekend would be Aaron Judge just remaining
hot at the plate, and he had three home runs
this weekend against the Giant bester of the weekend on Saturday,
Jamie Ornold Frshus starting pitcher, had a immaculate inning in
the second inning and then he followed it up in
(12:56):
the third inning by striking out in the next two
guys six consecutive pitchers.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
All right, well, thank you, Brandon.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
You know what's interesting about New York sports sometimes, like
the Mets are getting all the attention because the Mets
are terrible, and the Yankees, unless Aaron Boone is doing something,
saying something getting thrown out of a game, I haven't
heard much about the Yankees. It's just kind of like, yeah,
you know, Lon Soto's playing well, Judge's playing well. Heret
(13:25):
Coleba assignment.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
He will be coming back.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
So it's a good thing sometimes when they're not talking
about you in New York because they are doing a
whole lot of talking about the Mets. Chris in La Hi, Chris.
Speaker 13 (13:40):
Good morning, Dan. You know, I wanted to touch on
the Kaitlin Clark thing and your color a minute ago
kind of touched on it a little bit. But the
elephant in the room is the fact that there are
some racial hortones I believe, and I equated to when
Larry Bird came in, and you know, I think what's
happening is what is say in the black barbershops that
(14:01):
I go to, that you know, who is this white
young lady from the Midwest coming? And I think that
mentality is what's happening with the players, because the only
other player that has such fanfare, I believe will be
Lebron when he came out, and I don't think he
went through this type of situation. So to me, I
think it.
Speaker 11 (14:20):
Was Larry Bird.
Speaker 13 (14:21):
And Larry came out and people thought, you know, who
is this dude? This white dude, and you know, some
of the other black players are probably a little jealous,
but he proved himself. And I'm gonna tell you, I'm
a Kaitlin Clark fan. Now I really wasn't because I
thought she was getting a lot of hype. But she
is really, really good. But now the fact that she's
having to go through this when it's clearly just jealousy
(14:42):
because she's gonna increase the revenue and the eyes on
the WNBA. But because she's going through all this, I'm
pulling for now, so you know, but I still think
there is a little racial undertone there that no one
really wants to touch upon. And you know, maybe that's
a good thing. No one wants to really talk about it.
But I think it's there, and I think that is
what's feeling the jealousy.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Yeah, I think it's there, Yes, I do.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
But I don't think Larry Bird was the same as
Dirk Novitsky. When Novitsky came in, you had players that
were brutal to Dirk Novisky.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Because he was that.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
You know, you had Sharunas Marshall Onis like, you didn't
have a lot of your influx of European players. But
they thought Dirk Novitsky was soft, and I remember he
talked about it that from this from the benches, they
were on him had to prove himself. Bird was the
player of the year. I think what he was doing
(15:41):
as he's playing against really good teams or players. Then
he did lose to Magic. Magic had a far superior
team in the championship game. But I don't remember like
there was this kind of vitriol with Larry Bird of
could he play because it didn't take long before people
realiz that's it. Players know, players know before everybody else does,
(16:04):
and people who were in training camp. A friend of
mine was in training camp and he said he got
hit in the face with a basketball first time down
the floor from Larry Bird and it was like Larry
saw that he was open, he didn't look, and he
got hit right in the side of the face. He said,
from then on, everybody realized, keep your keep your head up,
(16:25):
because Larry's going to find you. And that's when he
was going against the established players on the Celtics, and
you had guys who tried to check him, tried, you know,
tried to you know, see just how good he was.
So it didn't take long before that happened. But I
don't I don't remember it being it was racial, because
you had Larry was in Boston, Magic was in La
(16:47):
so you had that kind of combination there, and certainly
Larry with Indiana State versus Michigan State with Magic as well,
So I think it was there. I just don't remember
it being on the surface as much.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Yes, to be fair to every player coming from Europe
was considered soft. Yeah, now they're just the best players
in the league, but back then they were all just
considered soft.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Yeah, yeah, they had a label to them.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah yeah, but I remember Sharon's Marshall o Onis was
not soft played for Golden State.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
He was not.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
But I don't know the first player who came over
and you went, oh, you know he's.
Speaker 10 (17:23):
Not a.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
I don't know stylistically he fits in, you know, playing
different basketball than all of us do.
Speaker 8 (17:31):
Yes, and it's not Europe, but it's from a different country.
Manu Ginobili, he came in, you know, ready to go.
You know, he wasn't scared of anybody who was never
labeled soft. Maybe a flopper or two once in a
blue moon, but he was going for the juggular every time.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Yeah, all right, let me take a break and we'll
give you our best and worst of the weekend more
phone calls.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
He's well back after this.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Twenty two years ago today, my life changed. I don't
know for the better, but it did change. Twenty two
years ago today I met Todd Fritz. We started working
together twenty two years ago today on a Monday.
Speaker 16 (18:58):
Monday June third, Yeah, which I initially thought was June second,
and Polly figured out that was a Sunday, so that couldn't.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Yes, yeah, well, knowing you, you might have sent some
emails and we started working on Sunday to get ready
for Monday.
Speaker 15 (19:12):
The actual first day was June third, oh too.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
You know, well, pretty emotional for us. Today's the anniversary
of pork Off falk.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
I'm sorry, I mean pwk off.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Walk Off fork Off. I don't know what was that
twenty sixteen? Was it eight years ago?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Today? We did sixteen is eight years ago. I think So,
I think, oh my god, walk off.
Speaker 15 (19:34):
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
You couldn't You couldn't hear yourself when so walk off,
I probably.
Speaker 16 (19:42):
Couldn't hear myself. Probably don't like to admit when I'm wrong.
So that's a the mix of, uh, why I just stopped.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
It's not in that order.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
It's we were saying my favorite part of this is that,
And unfortunately you have to listen to the clip for
a very long time. But Todd, where we're originally rhyming
things like falk and and cawk and things like that,
and Todd says pork and fork. The more that we
keep talking to him about it, the more the more
fork turns into falk Yeah, yeah, like I eat food
(20:10):
with a fork a fork. The more he just kept
twisting it and twisting it. It's just the best thing.
Speaker 15 (20:18):
Paul is like, you realize none of those things wrong?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Yes, but I don't know if you did. But then
you were talking about the wrestler the rocky rock, and
I go then like the rock and I go, no,
it's rock, it's not rock.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Pork and I have a.
Speaker 15 (20:36):
Speech impediment and hearing issues when it comes to rock.
Speaker 17 (20:38):
What do you have more than none of those rhyme
with the joke that we've been making. You realized that
none of those rhymes with the joke that we've been making. Yes, yeah,
it's a classic moment.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
How about basting words for the weekend? Todd? Shall we
okay the game we've.
Speaker 16 (20:52):
All been talking about Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky
Haylen Clark and mean you had a fever on Satday afternoon.
The best of the week was the fever almost blew
a nine point lead down the stretch, held on to
win by a single point, get to two and eight
for a record on the year. Clark becomes the first
rookie in WNBA history to get one hundred and fifty points,
fifty boards, fifty assists over ten game periods. So let's
look at something positive from that particular game. Worst of
(21:13):
the weekend the Mike Tyson Jake Paul fight that was
scheduled for July twentieth Man postponed to a lady date,
which will be announced on July seven, because Tyson is
dealing with an ulcer related flare up.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I said this, I think last week, what did they
miss their opportunity This fight should have happened a month ago,
and then Mike's got an ulcer, so they're gonna have
to postpone this again. We needed to happen right away
because the interest was there right away.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Now it's like, when are they gonna fight?
Speaker 6 (21:39):
Now?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
They're not gonna fight now it's postponed. Who knows whether
are they gonna fight? We may may never get to that.
Speaker 15 (21:46):
Not checking it out. I got a GAFS throwing tetanoishoet in.
Thank you man, I'm gonna we're gonna fight.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Uh seton O'Connor. Best and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
My best of the weekend, Angel Reese showing what a
good teammate she is by supporting Kennedy Carter and no, okay,
never mind, just a little twist on that one.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Anyway.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
My best and worst of the weekend. Real Madrid winning
Champions League. That's great. They're awesome. They're dominant. The even
worst part of them winning again is that now they're
on the verge of signing Killing Embappe, who's the best
player in the world, so they are set up for
the next ten years of absolute dominance.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
But they're a hell of a team to watch for sure.
Marvin Bester worst.
Speaker 15 (22:23):
Best of the Weekend.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
I watched this documentary called Fallen Idols on Nick and
Aaron Carter. Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys, and it
goes to him being accused of all these allegations of
sexual assault and Aaron Carter just kind of going off
the rails. So crazy interesting if you're in the boy
bands at the late nineties, like I am. Worst of
the Weekend, Sorry, New York the Rangers got eliminated. It
was a good ride, but it's over. Florida Panthers going
(22:46):
to the Stanley Cup Finals.
Speaker 18 (22:47):
Paulie Bestern Worst of the Weekend, Best of the Weekend.
The New York Yankees are forty two and nineteen. I
think it's time for us to want them to be
back in the World Series. I think it's been like
thirteen fourteen years since they were in a World Series.
That's gotta be the longest stretch of their history. Right,
No nine, right world Series. That's NMLB could use them
back in the World Series, even if they get beat
(23:08):
by somebody, just because it's a great market. The other one,
I think I'm kind of rooting for the Edmonton Oilers
until you said that step, I didn't realize that a
Canadian based team had not won the Stanley Cup for ninety.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Three, nineteen ninety three Montreal.
Speaker 18 (23:22):
Since then, oh to six, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Vancouver,
Montreal over six. I'm pro Canada on this one, not
anti Florida.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I'm pro Canada, okay, But then you go from nineteen
eighty four to nineteen ninety all Canadian based teams Oilers, Oilers, Canadians, Oilers, Oilers, Flames,
and the Oilers won the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Do you have a worst only?
Speaker 18 (23:48):
I don't think I have worse those The Tyson thing
like I had as my worst. But Fritzy said, it
really was scheduled at the perfect time of summer. The
way they had it was there was a buzz, there
was too much.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Hype too soon with it, and they needed to have
it happened sooner.
Speaker 18 (24:02):
But it was at a nice time where there's not
a lot going on. If they moved this thing, If
they moved this thing into mid August, late August or
in the fall, it's over.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
I think around the All Star break. You know that
early July would have been great. The sb's the day before. Well,
you don't want to take away from the greatest night
in sports. Barry in Pensacola. Hi Barry, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 19 (24:29):
Hi Dan? Hey Beary sixty two. I was talking to
your creator when Pete Merrimage came out in sixty nine.
He went to Atlanta Hawks. I think it's the number
one pick out of LSU and the entire team was
almost all black, and they his salary was a million
dollars and the entire starting team for the entire team
(24:53):
itself didn't make a million, So he was sort of
ostracized by the other players for, you know, being overhyped
and overpaid. Just want to let you know, I'll take
it a step further, Barry. You had two of his
teammates who didn't want to play with Pete Maravich.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
They left and went to the ABA. Here's the all
time leading scorer coming into the professional ranks, and you
had players who did not want to play. So Maravich
had super Lou Hudson, but they lost Zelmo Beaty and
maybe Bill Bridges decided they were going to go to
(25:32):
the ABA. Imagine that Marrivich comes in and you had
teammates who didn't want to play. He was getting over hyped,
too much money. Keith and Florida. Hi, Keith, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 9 (25:47):
First time, long time five and I'm calling into I've
been listening to you. I talk about Caitlin and I
had a point of view I wanted to bring up
and it kind of touches the race narrative. There's a
movie that came out years and years ago. It was
(26:09):
kind of like a comedy but in ohms to to
kind of what happens in promoting uh. And this movie
was called The Great White Hype yep. And I don't
know if you don't know if you guys remember it.
And I kind of compare Caitlyn to the way she's
being promoted to kind of like that movie. Caitlyn Clark
(26:31):
was a star in college, but what elevated her to
like the stardom she's into now is kind of when
her and Angel Reese had their back and forth. But
you know, I watched the w NBA and I gotta
tell you, man, there's some ballers that have come out
of college, like Brianna Stewart, Sabrion Aasco, Diana Tarassi that
(26:53):
like they were champions in college man, and they were
superior to where she is coming out now. So I
don't want to take anything away from her, but that
dynamic is very real.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Well, I can't say that they were superior to her.
They played on great teams Connecticut, they were always great.
The Iowa team, to me, was not a great team.
I think that she helped carry a team go to
the final four, go to a championship game.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
You kind of.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Had a ton of talent. That's not confused the two Yes, Mark.
Speaker 8 (27:34):
Yeah, I think it's going to be very Michigan sq
with the Fab five, where it's like what made him
so dominant? They got to two straight national championship games
and that's what Caitlin Clark did. It's very Steph Curry
like where it's like who else is on that team?
When you say Breonna Stewart, Like, if you're a real
fan of basketball, likee Wims College of Basketball, you can
name a couple of other All Americans that played with Tarasi.
(27:55):
Sue Berg and Swim Cash played with Diana Tarasi, right,
and so you really can't name it anybody else with
Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Yeah, And let's just be careful with the revisionist history.
Here what Caitlin Clark did with that team that wasn't
a great team. I think that she made that team
at times a great team. But as far as the
talent that they were up, I mean, South Carolina had
more talent than anybody, and they beat them, and then
South Carolina ends up winning the national title.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
The following year.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
LSU had a ton of talent as well, and they
were the better teams and rightfully so, winning the national championship.
But I don't think because Caitlin Clark didn't win a
title in college that all of a sudden we go,
well that these other players are far superior, because they're not.
Caitlin Clark did things that nobody's ever done before with
the sport and the style that she did it. I mean,
(28:48):
this is what Pete Maravich did, and you know, whether
you liked him or not, he didn't win anything, He
didn't win anything, but he was the greatest score in
the history of the sport. And Caitlin what she did,
how she did it, where she did it. Being white, yeah,
throw it all.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
In the blender.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
It all factors in to whatever degree you choose it
to factor in I just think you have established players
in a predominantly black sport and they're saying, as we
would probably do the same. Oh okay, let me see
what you got. You know, to the opposite the PGA tour.
(29:30):
There were players who did that to Tiger when he
came in. Oh okay, and then all of a sudden
things changed. Let's see what happens with Caitlin this year.
It's a lot of basketball, and the stress level of
all that basketball, everything that happened at Iowa really no break. Now,
all of a sudden, you come in and now you're
(29:51):
playing against better competition every single night, every time down
the floor. Competition's a whole lot different. And she's finding
that out. Doesn't mean she still can't shoot, doesn't mean
she still can't pass. Now you have to shoot quicker.
Now you have to pass quicker. It's a step quicker.
It's got to be. It's got to be. It's got
to be. This isn't this isn't college anymore. When they
(30:15):
put a forearm on you, they're putting a forearm on you.
They're going to knock you down. They're going to knock
you down. It's gonna be a hard found that's what they're.
Speaker 16 (30:21):
Going to do.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Jeff in Kansas City, Hi Jeff, what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (30:29):
dB?
Speaker 20 (30:30):
Best and Worst of the weekend?
Speaker 6 (30:31):
Worst.
Speaker 20 (30:32):
I spent nine hours and forty seven minutes on my bike.
Speaker 10 (30:36):
Best.
Speaker 20 (30:36):
I competed in unbound gravel, which is like the premier
gravel race. Hearing the US finished one hundred and eight
miles distance and the better of the weekend. A guy
in our group or in our race, ninety one years
young finished as well. So that was really damn impressive.
So after retirement, I know you've done soul cycle. Why
(30:58):
don't you come out and ride this with us?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Thank you, Jeff, I go outdoors.
Speaker 18 (31:05):
That's not your style.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Well I did. I did one bike trip. I told
you this.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
My wife and I we took a bike trip from
Atlanta to New Orleans and we did it in six days.
So if you do the math, I didn't get on
the bike again. I had my wife pack it up
and we took the train back from New Orleans to Atlanta.
We still had the bike. I didn't get back on
(31:34):
it again. My wife brought it out. She goes, come on, I.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
Go nope, nope.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
She duped me into thinking taking a bike trip in
the summer from Atlanta to New Orleans was going to
be romantic. There's going to be Spanish moss though, these
beautiful southern mansions. The food will be great. There were bugs.
That was it was extremely hot. There really wasn't a
(32:04):
lot of Spanish moss, and there wasn't a lot of
Southern mansions.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I was miserable.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Every time we'd stop, I'd buy two bags of ice
and I'd put them on my knees like J Yes.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
I was doctor J and you're sweating like Patrick ewing, Yes,
and I'm like. We got to New Orleans. New Orleans
was wonderful.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I just remember they didn't have enough Dixie beer for
me when I got there. We had great food, and
I remember we had a wonderful time. Went to Tippotinas
a few times and saw the radiators, the rads and that.
So it's like childbirth that all right, now, you know, hey,
we should do it again. No, hun No, I'm still
(32:45):
feeling the labor pains of going from Atlanta to New Orleans.
People throwing stuff out of their cars and trucks at us. Yeah,
had a pit bowl that came up on me and
I stopped pedaling.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
No, I wish is not.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
No. This house had a white picket fence and I
see this dog charging out and I go, at least
they got a fence. Well, it only went in the
front of the house. It didn't have the side, so
that damn pit bull went out the side and I'm
I'm pedaling and my wife goes, stop pedaling because he's
going to bite your ankle. And so I got out
(33:30):
my bike pump the tire pump, and I was like,
do I hit this dog so he doesn't bite me.
All of a sudden, we got to a certain point
on the street and he just went and then took
a right turn, went right back home. I'm going then,
I yelled at my wife. This surely is romantic. Having
a great time. We'll take a break, last call for
(33:53):
phone calls.
Speaker 1 (33:54):

La Clippers.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Wow. So Ed O'Neil join us on the program tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
By the way, it's the anniversary eight years ago of
pork Off. Also the anniversary of when Todd and I
first started working together twenty two years ago at the
Mother Show.
Speaker 15 (34:47):
About that.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Yeah, but let's not focus on that. Let's focus on
pork off.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I actually google they use it on pools too, But
bathup would have been better.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Mclove, should I walk off?
Speaker 18 (35:03):
If you're a school teacher and you write a lesson
on a blackboard, it's really really good.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
That's called a chalk off. That's right.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
The greatest show on turf, The Running Back there would
have a falk off. Let's be careful here, I don't
hawk and falk Yeah, no, Fritz.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
I was gonna say.
Speaker 15 (35:20):
If we're having a concert, who can eat the most sausages?
That would be a sausage off. The judges would looking
for pork off.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Pork off.
Speaker 15 (35:32):
If you come to a spot in the road and
you pick the right road to go down. That would
be a.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
Fork fork off.
Speaker 17 (35:37):
There, you realize that none of those rhyme with the
jokes that we've been making.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Once again, John, don't you hear this, it's pork pork off.
Speaker 3 (35:50):
You actually change it.
Speaker 15 (35:52):
I should.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
It's not like walk and pork.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
It's a talk hawk chalk and you went pork. Yeah,
I see how that doesn't work. You're using your accent.
Your Brooklyn accent is like a palk before.
Speaker 15 (36:11):
Try to bail myself out with the Brooklyn thing.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
But yeah, a legend, what a legend? Eight years ago? Today?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
You're welcome Mark in South Carolina. Hi, Mark, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 12 (36:25):
It's like first time short time five say, I'm wondering
how many of these players might be trying to get
like an nil bump off of becoming famous by harassing
Caitlin Clark. I'll take your comments off there.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Whether there's there's no nil on the pros. It's just
like endorsement salary. A lot of these players. Kennedy Carter,
you don't even know who she is. I mean, she's
not even a starter, I don't think. But they all,
you know, when their friends are saying, hey, Hey, you're
get to check her? Yeah, I got her? Or how'd
(37:03):
you do against her? Hey, don't let her get away.
I mean, this is what goes on, and it's going
to go on until Caitlin Clark, you know, does something
where she proves herself where they don't, you know, try
to punk her.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
And that's what they're trying to do.
Speaker 8 (37:19):
Yes, yes, And it's the most eyeballs that's ever been
on them watching a basketball game in their entire lives. True,
they're going to try to show up and show out
for sure.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Mike and Florida. Hi, Mike, what's on your mind?
Speaker 6 (37:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (37:31):
I just wanted to give my bests and worst of
the weekend. So well, actually two bests. So, first bets
is moved to Florida in twenty twenty, and I don't
know if I'm a good luck charm or something, but
ever since I moved to Florida, the Lightning have gone
to the Final three years in a row and now
the Panthers two years in a row. So I don't know,
maybe I'm the charm. But second bets, me and fiance
(37:53):
looking for a new show to start. Last night came
across your honor because it's now on Netflix. Yeah, I
know you've given some good reviews. Oh man, that's the
first episode. I just looked her. I'm like, we're going
to binge this and it is so good.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
The Mayor of Kingstown with Jeremy Renners great and Hacks
Jeane Smart is off the charts great in my opinion,
Miss Day and sports history, Paul.
Speaker 18 (38:18):
Let's see, I'll give you a couple of good ones.
Eighteen fifty one the New York Knickerbockers. They were a
baseball team. They were the first baseball team to wear
actual uniforms. Now, those weren't like baseball uniforms. They just
wore suits that were coordinated. They wore suits with they
were blue, white vests and straw hats. So they wore
suits whilst playing baseball. Let's see, Oh, this is a
(38:41):
tough one. Two thousand and three, Sammy Sosa broke a
bat when he grounded out against the Tampa Bay devilgrats
and and the bat was corked and exploded all over
the infields. He said it was a bat he used
to show off during batting practice hit bombs, and he
accidentally grabbed it.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Yeah, as opposed to the bomb that he hit with
his other bat in a real game.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
Yep, get out of it. That's try yeah. Eighteen eighty eight.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
This poem first published by the San Francisco Examiner, Todd.
Speaker 15 (39:15):
Take me out to the ball game. But that's not
only a poem, that's a song.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
It's true. See poetic satan. Uh, Casey at the bat,
Casey at the bat? Ding ding ding, Oh, that was
grea Casey at the bat. Who good one? That's a
good one. Yeah, Well, don't spoil the ending.
Speaker 16 (39:36):
And the scoreboard was eighteen and eighty eight, and you
just did something from eighteen eighty eight.
Speaker 15 (39:39):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (39:41):
Yeah, on that train scoreboard today is eighteen eighty eight. Uh.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
A guy, a gentleman named Thayer wrote, Casey at the bat.
I don't know his first name. Ernest, Oh, Ernest Big, Ernie,
Ernie big, Earn big Earn, Casey at the bat. See
now Casey's striking out. He'd be okay in today's game.
Speaker 3 (39:58):
It's okay.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
Hey, you struck down, No big deal. Spoiler, Yeah, get
them get him next time.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
Magic.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
In nineteen eighty four, he said an NBA Finals record,
he had twenty one assists in a win against the
Celtics in Game three. Uh, Michael Jordan, Oh, this was
the shrug game nineteen ninety two. Jordan goes for thirty five,
including six three pointers. That was Game one of the
NBA Finals, the shrug game. Didn't Luca have a shrug
(40:28):
here recently?
Speaker 6 (40:29):
Did?
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Yeah? He did? Yeah? I think that's a callback here.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
I think Caitlin Clark kind of you know, we're starting
to shrug a little bit. Atlas shrugged. See what I
did with that too? Are you feeling familiar with Atlas shrug?
Speaker 15 (40:41):
Not really?
Speaker 16 (40:42):
I know that like the Atlas, like holding up the
big No. No, I don't know who Alas shrugg?
Speaker 3 (40:46):
No, okay, you.
Speaker 15 (40:48):
Didn't give you a bloop. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
You're the one that graduated second in your class at
six hundred.
Speaker 15 (40:52):
It's more of a math science.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Todd. Would you learn today?
Speaker 16 (40:57):
Justin Jefferson got a new lucrative deal from the Vikings
other receivers Joyson, but not the owners Seaton?
Speaker 3 (41:02):
What did you learn today?
Speaker 4 (41:03):
James Worthy was better than Michael Jordan for exactly three weeks.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
But he was better than Mike for three weeks. Yeah,
Marvin Paulie is pro Canada. Yeah, my Panthers against the Oilers.
Paulie James Worthy was almost a Cleveland cavalier. What we
learned brought to you by McGuire's new hybrid ceramic washing
wax in a bucket or a foam cannon boost protection
with extreme water beating technology. The next time you wash
(41:30):
your card truck, McGuire's meg U I R S McGuire's
reflect your passion. Thanks for joining us. We look forward
to talking with you tomorrow
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We have a new receiver who's making the most money
in the NFL. No surprise, it's Justin Jefferson. At deal
got signed, agreed to today four years, one hundred and
forty million dollars. So the going rate is thirty five
million dollars right now. If you're Jerry Jones or Mike Brown.
(00:24):
Mike Brown with the Bengals with Jamar Chase and Jerry
Jones with Cede Lamb, you're probably going, oh no, because
you still have to get some other players signed, and
certainly with Mikeaeh Parsons and Dak Prescott. You have the
mandatory mini camps that start this week for ten teams.
We didn't know what happens in a mandatory mini camp.
(00:47):
I think it's just basically, hey, can we get kind
of a look, see see how your your summer's going.
How about we weigh in here. How about we just
checked see how's your mind? How's your how you feeling?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
I just look at you.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Instead of players used to show up at training camp
to get in shape. The old NFL, the old AFL,
even when it came to baseball, players would show up
at spring training to then get in shape during spring training.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Now you're expected to be in shape ready to go.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Yeah, Steeden, could you imagine that there was actually a
time where it dawned on somebody. You know, if I
just stay in shape all the time, I might be
a better athlete. Nah, you show up the training camp
and all of a sudden, it's like, you know, I
wonder if I started this like two weeks before training
camp if I would do But what about a month?
Hold on a sego? What if I just did this
(01:42):
all off season? I stayed in shape.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
What if I hired somebody to help me stay in shape?
Speaker 5 (01:46):
What?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Do you guys think lifting weights would help? You think
we should? Okay, Okay, people had to think of that.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I know. So ten teams have mandatory minting camps this week.
What if I showed up already in shape? Do you
think I would be a start of the Oilers meet
the Stars they head to the Stanley Cup final versus
the Panthers and the mileage between those two cities. By
the way, the Florida Panthers are in Sunrise, Florida, Edmonton
to Sunrise, it's two and forty the longest distance between
(02:16):
opponents in Stanley Cup Final history.
Speaker 7 (02:20):
Startup to day, startup the day, stat of the day,
start of the day, statu to day startup today, start
of the day.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Start stat of the day. Brought to you by Panini America.
The official official training cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Operators standing by sitting by Tyler, take your phone calls,
pull question. For the final hour, the program is going
to be what seat O'Connor? By the way, the action
continues at Roland Garros French Open Women's and men's semi finals.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Who needs to win a title?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Den Jason Tatum, Luka, Doncic or Connor McDavid. Connor McDavid
Right now, Jason Tatum still holding strong out about thirty
nine percent of the which just Connor McDavid just behind him.
Not a lot of pressure on Luca apparently.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, Jason Tatum has been here before. I understand that
We're like, okay, win a title. Okay, yeah, you won,
you went to the Eastern Conference finals, went to an
NBA final. Now win the finals and then we move on.
We did this with Yannis, we did this with Joker.
We're not doing this with Joe Ellenbiid. Yet we're not
going to do this with Luca, but with Jason Tatum
(03:29):
all of a sudden, we'll move on.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
He got his title, yes, maar.
Speaker 8 (03:33):
And also Luca and the Mavericks, they're the fifth seed.
I think people forget that. In the Celtics they won
sixty four games, so they're supposed to be here.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yep, good points there. By the way.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
After dominating women's college basketball, everybody was excited Caitlin Clark
was going into the WNBA. Now, everybody was excited except
for her peers. She's been called out, she's been criticized
and cheap shots there and she's only been in the
league for a little more than a month. Veteran players
don't take a backseat to an unproven rookie. And by
(04:05):
unproven rookie, it's what do you do when you get in,
It's not what you once did. I go back to
when Tiger Woods was turning pro and there were two
players on tour who I was around when they said, oh, yeah,
let's see what he does now against the pros. And
this is when Tiger said he won a tournament with
his sea game. Oh these players were living. They quickly
(04:26):
reverse course on that because they realized that Tiger did
win with his Sea game. Lebron James had doubters when
he came out of high school. You call yourself the
chosen one. Okay, let me see what you got chosen one.
So players aren't going to take it easy on Caitlin Clark. Well,
you talk trash, We talk trash. You get physical, we
get physical. They're there to lock you down. They're there
(04:48):
to light you up. They're there to knock you down.
They're not there to help you up. And you saw
that this past weekend when you had and it's not
just one play.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
You have to look at a series of plays.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Between Caitlyn Clark and Kennedy Carter because they were going
at it and Kitlyn Clark she can dish it out,
and Kennedy Carter wanted to see if she could take
it as well. She was not going to answer any
questions about Caitlyn Clark Angel Reese ar teammate. They were
not going to answer any questions here. But Caitlin Clark
was asked about the hip check by Kennedy Carter.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Yeah, it wasn't.
Speaker 7 (05:25):
Expected hit, but I think it's just like just respond
come down while you played the hockey, and it is
what it is. It's a physical game. Go make the
free throw and then a secute on offense. And I
feel like that's kind of what we did.
Speaker 9 (05:38):
But you know, it is what it is.
Speaker 7 (05:40):
I gonna sound.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yeah, I don't know it is what it is because
it isn't what it is because it was a cheap shot.
It wasn't a basketball play. But you're putting the ball
in play and you know she's coming up on you.
You know has a B word that is in your
direction and is coming right back at her. You know
that there's no place for that. But I do understand
(06:05):
you're going to go back and forth and all of
a sudden you call me something, I'm gonna call you something.
I'm gonna hit a jumper and I'm going to knock
you down. Not a good look, but it does give
you that you know, there's passion attached to this, the
physicality of this, that they're not backing down. Now it's
up to Caitlin Clark to not back down. And look,
(06:25):
she looks tired, and rightfully so. Because they played eleven
games in twenty days. That's two more games than any
other team. She had three points in the loss to
New York yesterday. This is going to get a little
bit longer for her, and then they'll be the Olympic
break and then we'll see what happens after that. I'm
curious the following season. But look, when Juju Watkins comes in,
(06:49):
when Page Becker's comes in, they're going to be people.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Testing them as well.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
But that shows the growth of the game that players
coming in and these players who've been around for you know,
ten to fifteen years, now all of a sudden, you're
saving our league. We've been playing here for a long time.
Now you're getting eyeballs. Now people have an opinion on
the WNBA. Kevin in Ohio, Hi Kevin, what's on your
(07:15):
mind today?
Speaker 10 (07:16):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (07:16):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
How are you good?
Speaker 6 (07:17):
But five seventy post cancer one eighty nine, so I'm
I'm working on that part.
Speaker 10 (07:26):
Anyhow.
Speaker 6 (07:29):
You gave examples of the Caitlin Clark thing, but you
had to go back forty years, and I don't think
you pointed out any real recent attacks on rookies of
this magnitude. I mean, clearly, I believe that it's been
made about race. The media has made it about race.
(07:51):
The only one that hasn't made it about race. Is
maybe Caitlin Clark and yourself, But I don't know. I
think it's I think it's blatant that it just had
no place in basketball, and I don't think I recall
any professional NBA players pulling that kind of stunt, you know,
(08:13):
with the elbows and the blind sided hip check, and
it's all on the heels of uh oh in the
celebration from from from the other player clearly indicates to
me that it's it's all about you know, uh. The
(08:33):
narrative that's been pushed by uh that this's certain people
in the media.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Well, Angel Reese is applauding that Kaitlyn Clark got knocked down.
I don't know what else is going on with this.
I don't know what else has said. Angel revees clearly
is jealous of Kaitlyn Clark. She wins the national title,
she doesn't celebrate with her teammates. She wants to make
sure Kaitlyn Clark sees what she's doing by mocking her.
So she is bothered by Caitlyn Clark, that Caitlyn Clark
(09:07):
gets all this attention. Caitlyn Clark's a better bounceketball player,
people come to see Caitlyn Clark angel reeves can put
up ten points and ten rebounds and does nothing exciting.
Now social media, she's become a star. Good for her,
But I know people want to make it race because
it's all this white girl from Iowa comes in and
(09:29):
all of a sudden, these black players aren't embracing her.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
And look, I get it. I understand that.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I try to look at this fairly, and that is
you have a great player coming in, she's the savior.
Does the role of being white play a role?
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Sure? It does not blind to that.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I just don't know if everybody dislikes her because the
media treated her differently, the way she plays, the way
she acts, favoritism. I mean, I gets I understand this.
You know, all of these players who've been in the WNBA, like, oh, okay,
you're the savior here, let's see what you do.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
How about to knock you on your rear end.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
No one has come into the WNBA with this much
fanfare in the history of the WNBA. There have been
better players or players that were well recognized, but this
has been a social media phenomena, and Caitlin Clark is
not an angel in all of this because she does
go back and forth as well, and she talks trash
(10:31):
as well, and she's used to getting calls that she's
not getting. Now there's a frustration level. I understand that.
But I brought up the fact that Michael Jordan, the
greatest player in the history of the game, he got
beat up when he came into the NBA. That Caitlin
Clark coming into the WNBA, you know that might be
(10:51):
the version of the Jordan rules. They're going to rough
you up. And Jordan responded, it'll be up to Caitlin
Clark because if not, if you let them punk you,
they will continue to do that.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:05):
Mark Charles Barkley has a great story about Maurice Lucas
elbowing him really hard in the stomach and he elbows
and back, and Maurice Lucas says to him, I just
wanted to see what you were made of. So it's basically,
I know your top five pick and all that stuff
you got, the commercials and the Nike We're about to
see what you're really about when you get up to
a man's league.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Chimo in Virginia Beach, Hey, Keimo, Hey, Danny, Hey, bud.
Speaker 10 (11:32):
Oh I'm sorry. Hey, you know, the best of the
worst the weekend. The best was the this whole Caitlin Calk.
The women are just playing like freaking competitors.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
You know what.
Speaker 10 (11:42):
We got too many prima donnas running around in the
men's world. Hey to be sexist, but anyway, the worst
of the wish has just happened. Minutes ago. You're telling
us you got a family member having a stroke. Picket
God bless mama. But did y'all just see the men
a display casket or something?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
No, no, no, no, he survived. But it was a
family member who was having a stroke as we're picking
out my mom's casket, and I was joking the funeral
director was kind of sizing up my brother. He wasn't
but he went to the emergency room and and he
is alive. He is is well. But yeah, it did
happen as we're picking out my mom's casket. We had
(12:24):
to laugh later, we didn't laugh in the moment. Uh,
Brandon and tallahassee, Hey Brandon, what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (12:32):
Hey GP, how you doing good?
Speaker 5 (12:35):
I have a best and a bester of the weekend.
Best of the weekend would be Aaron Judge just remaining
hot at the plate, and he had three home runs
this weekend against the Giant bester of the weekend on Saturday,
Jamie Ornold Frshus starting pitcher, had a immaculate inning in
the second inning and then he followed it up in
(12:56):
the third inning by striking out in the next two
guys six consecutive pitchers.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
All right, well, thank you, Brandon.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
You know what's interesting about New York sports sometimes, like
the Mets are getting all the attention because the Mets
are terrible, and the Yankees, unless Aaron Boone is doing something,
saying something getting thrown out of a game, I haven't
heard much about the Yankees. It's just kind of like, yeah,
you know, Lon Soto's playing well, Judge's playing well. Heret
(13:25):
Coleba assignment.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
He will be coming back.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
So it's a good thing sometimes when they're not talking
about you in New York because they are doing a
whole lot of talking about the Mets. Chris in La Hi, Chris.
Speaker 13 (13:40):
Good morning, Dan. You know, I wanted to touch on
the Kaitlin Clark thing and your color a minute ago
kind of touched on it a little bit. But the
elephant in the room is the fact that there are
some racial hortones I believe, and I equated to when
Larry Bird came in, and you know, I think what's
happening is what is say in the black barbershops that
(14:01):
I go to, that you know, who is this white
young lady from the Midwest coming? And I think that
mentality is what's happening with the players, because the only
other player that has such fanfare, I believe will be
Lebron when he came out, and I don't think he
went through this type of situation. So to me, I
think it.
Speaker 11 (14:20):
Was Larry Bird.
Speaker 13 (14:21):
And Larry came out and people thought, you know, who
is this dude? This white dude, and you know, some
of the other black players are probably a little jealous,
but he proved himself. And I'm gonna tell you, I'm
a Kaitlin Clark fan. Now I really wasn't because I
thought she was getting a lot of hype. But she
is really, really good. But now the fact that she's
having to go through this when it's clearly just jealousy
(14:42):
because she's gonna increase the revenue and the eyes on
the WNBA. But because she's going through all this, I'm
pulling for now, so you know, but I still think
there is a little racial undertone there that no one
really wants to touch upon. And you know, maybe that's
a good thing. No one wants to really talk about it.
But I think it's there, and I think that is
what's feeling the jealousy.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Yeah, I think it's there, Yes, I do.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
But I don't think Larry Bird was the same as
Dirk Novitsky. When Novitsky came in, you had players that
were brutal to Dirk Novisky.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Because he was that.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
You know, you had Sharunas Marshall Onis like, you didn't
have a lot of your influx of European players. But
they thought Dirk Novitsky was soft, and I remember he
talked about it that from this from the benches, they
were on him had to prove himself. Bird was the
player of the year. I think what he was doing
(15:41):
as he's playing against really good teams or players. Then
he did lose to Magic. Magic had a far superior
team in the championship game. But I don't remember like
there was this kind of vitriol with Larry Bird of
could he play because it didn't take long before people
realiz that's it. Players know, players know before everybody else does,
(16:04):
and people who were in training camp. A friend of
mine was in training camp and he said he got
hit in the face with a basketball first time down
the floor from Larry Bird and it was like Larry
saw that he was open, he didn't look, and he
got hit right in the side of the face. He said,
from then on, everybody realized, keep your keep your head up,
(16:25):
because Larry's going to find you. And that's when he
was going against the established players on the Celtics, and
you had guys who tried to check him, tried, you know,
tried to you know, see just how good he was.
So it didn't take long before that happened. But I
don't I don't remember it being it was racial, because
you had Larry was in Boston, Magic was in La
(16:47):
so you had that kind of combination there, and certainly
Larry with Indiana State versus Michigan State with Magic as well,
So I think it was there. I just don't remember
it being on the surface as much.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Yes, to be fair to every player coming from Europe
was considered soft. Yeah, now they're just the best players
in the league, but back then they were all just
considered soft.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Yeah, yeah, they had a label to them.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah yeah, but I remember Sharon's Marshall o Onis was
not soft played for Golden State.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
He was not.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
But I don't know the first player who came over
and you went, oh, you know he's.
Speaker 10 (17:23):
Not a.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
I don't know stylistically he fits in, you know, playing
different basketball than all of us do.
Speaker 8 (17:31):
Yes, and it's not Europe, but it's from a different country.
Manu Ginobili, he came in, you know, ready to go.
You know, he wasn't scared of anybody who was never
labeled soft. Maybe a flopper or two once in a
blue moon, but he was going for the juggular every time.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Yeah, all right, let me take a break and we'll
give you our best and worst of the weekend more
phone calls.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
He's well back after this.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Twenty two years ago today, my life changed. I don't
know for the better, but it did change. Twenty two
years ago today I met Todd Fritz. We started working
together twenty two years ago today on a Monday.
Speaker 16 (18:58):
Monday June third, Yeah, which I initially thought was June second,
and Polly figured out that was a Sunday, so that couldn't.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Yes, yeah, well, knowing you, you might have sent some
emails and we started working on Sunday to get ready
for Monday.
Speaker 15 (19:12):
The actual first day was June third, oh too.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
You know, well, pretty emotional for us. Today's the anniversary
of pork Off falk.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
I'm sorry, I mean pwk off.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Walk Off fork Off. I don't know what was that
twenty sixteen? Was it eight years ago?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Today? We did sixteen is eight years ago. I think So,
I think, oh my god, walk off.
Speaker 15 (19:34):
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
You couldn't You couldn't hear yourself when so walk off,
I probably.
Speaker 16 (19:42):
Couldn't hear myself. Probably don't like to admit when I'm wrong.
So that's a the mix of, uh, why I just stopped.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
It's not in that order.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
It's we were saying my favorite part of this is that,
And unfortunately you have to listen to the clip for
a very long time. But Todd, where we're originally rhyming
things like falk and and cawk and things like that,
and Todd says pork and fork. The more that we
keep talking to him about it, the more the more
fork turns into falk Yeah, yeah, like I eat food
(20:10):
with a fork a fork. The more he just kept
twisting it and twisting it. It's just the best thing.
Speaker 15 (20:18):
Paul is like, you realize none of those things wrong?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Yes, but I don't know if you did. But then
you were talking about the wrestler the rocky rock, and
I go then like the rock and I go, no,
it's rock, it's not rock.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Pork and I have a.
Speaker 15 (20:36):
Speech impediment and hearing issues when it comes to rock.
Speaker 17 (20:38):
What do you have more than none of those rhyme
with the joke that we've been making. You realized that
none of those rhymes with the joke that we've been making. Yes, yeah,
it's a classic moment.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
How about basting words for the weekend? Todd? Shall we
okay the game we've.
Speaker 16 (20:52):
All been talking about Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky
Haylen Clark and mean you had a fever on Satday afternoon.
The best of the week was the fever almost blew
a nine point lead down the stretch, held on to
win by a single point, get to two and eight
for a record on the year. Clark becomes the first
rookie in WNBA history to get one hundred and fifty points,
fifty boards, fifty assists over ten game periods. So let's
look at something positive from that particular game. Worst of
(21:13):
the weekend the Mike Tyson Jake Paul fight that was
scheduled for July twentieth Man postponed to a lady date,
which will be announced on July seven, because Tyson is
dealing with an ulcer related flare up.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I said this, I think last week, what did they
miss their opportunity This fight should have happened a month ago,
and then Mike's got an ulcer, so they're gonna have
to postpone this again. We needed to happen right away
because the interest was there right away.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
Now it's like, when are they gonna fight?
Speaker 6 (21:39):
Now?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
They're not gonna fight now it's postponed. Who knows whether
are they gonna fight? We may may never get to that.
Speaker 15 (21:46):
Not checking it out. I got a GAFS throwing tetanoishoet in.
Thank you man, I'm gonna we're gonna fight.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Uh seton O'Connor. Best and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
My best of the weekend, Angel Reese showing what a
good teammate she is by supporting Kennedy Carter and no, okay,
never mind, just a little twist on that one.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Anyway.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
My best and worst of the weekend. Real Madrid winning
Champions League. That's great. They're awesome. They're dominant. The even
worst part of them winning again is that now they're
on the verge of signing Killing Embappe, who's the best
player in the world, so they are set up for
the next ten years of absolute dominance.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
But they're a hell of a team to watch for sure.
Marvin Bester worst.
Speaker 15 (22:23):
Best of the Weekend.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
I watched this documentary called Fallen Idols on Nick and
Aaron Carter. Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys, and it
goes to him being accused of all these allegations of
sexual assault and Aaron Carter just kind of going off
the rails. So crazy interesting if you're in the boy
bands at the late nineties, like I am. Worst of
the Weekend, Sorry, New York the Rangers got eliminated. It
was a good ride, but it's over. Florida Panthers going
(22:46):
to the Stanley Cup Finals.
Speaker 18 (22:47):
Paulie Bestern Worst of the Weekend, Best of the Weekend.
The New York Yankees are forty two and nineteen. I
think it's time for us to want them to be
back in the World Series. I think it's been like
thirteen fourteen years since they were in a World Series.
That's gotta be the longest stretch of their history. Right,
No nine, right world Series. That's NMLB could use them
back in the World Series, even if they get beat
(23:08):
by somebody, just because it's a great market. The other one,
I think I'm kind of rooting for the Edmonton Oilers
until you said that step, I didn't realize that a
Canadian based team had not won the Stanley Cup for ninety.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Three, nineteen ninety three Montreal.
Speaker 18 (23:22):
Since then, oh to six, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Vancouver,
Montreal over six. I'm pro Canada on this one, not
anti Florida.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I'm pro Canada, okay, But then you go from nineteen
eighty four to nineteen ninety all Canadian based teams Oilers, Oilers, Canadians, Oilers, Oilers, Flames,
and the Oilers won the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Do you have a worst only?
Speaker 18 (23:48):
I don't think I have worse those The Tyson thing
like I had as my worst. But Fritzy said, it
really was scheduled at the perfect time of summer. The
way they had it was there was a buzz, there
was too much.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Hype too soon with it, and they needed to have
it happened sooner.
Speaker 18 (24:02):
But it was at a nice time where there's not
a lot going on. If they moved this thing, If
they moved this thing into mid August, late August or
in the fall, it's over.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
I think around the All Star break. You know that
early July would have been great. The sb's the day before. Well,
you don't want to take away from the greatest night
in sports. Barry in Pensacola. Hi Barry, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 19 (24:29):
Hi Dan? Hey Beary sixty two. I was talking to
your creator when Pete Merrimage came out in sixty nine.
He went to Atlanta Hawks. I think it's the number
one pick out of LSU and the entire team was
almost all black, and they his salary was a million
dollars and the entire starting team for the entire team
(24:53):
itself didn't make a million, So he was sort of
ostracized by the other players for, you know, being overhyped
and overpaid. Just want to let you know, I'll take
it a step further, Barry. You had two of his
teammates who didn't want to play with Pete Maravich.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
They left and went to the ABA. Here's the all
time leading scorer coming into the professional ranks, and you
had players who did not want to play. So Maravich
had super Lou Hudson, but they lost Zelmo Beaty and
maybe Bill Bridges decided they were going to go to
(25:32):
the ABA. Imagine that Marrivich comes in and you had
teammates who didn't want to play. He was getting over hyped,
too much money. Keith and Florida. Hi, Keith, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 9 (25:47):
First time, long time five and I'm calling into I've
been listening to you. I talk about Caitlin and I
had a point of view I wanted to bring up
and it kind of touches the race narrative. There's a
movie that came out years and years ago. It was
(26:09):
kind of like a comedy but in ohms to to
kind of what happens in promoting uh. And this movie
was called The Great White Hype yep. And I don't
know if you don't know if you guys remember it.
And I kind of compare Caitlyn to the way she's
being promoted to kind of like that movie. Caitlyn Clark
(26:31):
was a star in college, but what elevated her to
like the stardom she's into now is kind of when
her and Angel Reese had their back and forth. But
you know, I watched the w NBA and I gotta
tell you, man, there's some ballers that have come out
of college, like Brianna Stewart, Sabrion Aasco, Diana Tarassi that
(26:53):
like they were champions in college man, and they were
superior to where she is coming out now. So I
don't want to take anything away from her, but that
dynamic is very real.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Well, I can't say that they were superior to her.
They played on great teams Connecticut, they were always great.
The Iowa team, to me, was not a great team.
I think that she helped carry a team go to
the final four, go to a championship game.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
You kind of.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Had a ton of talent. That's not confused the two Yes, Mark.
Speaker 8 (27:34):
Yeah, I think it's going to be very Michigan sq
with the Fab five, where it's like what made him
so dominant? They got to two straight national championship games
and that's what Caitlin Clark did. It's very Steph Curry
like where it's like who else is on that team?
When you say Breonna Stewart, Like, if you're a real
fan of basketball, likee Wims College of Basketball, you can
name a couple of other All Americans that played with Tarasi.
(27:55):
Sue Berg and Swim Cash played with Diana Tarasi, right,
and so you really can't name it anybody else with
Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Yeah, And let's just be careful with the revisionist history.
Here what Caitlin Clark did with that team that wasn't
a great team. I think that she made that team
at times a great team. But as far as the
talent that they were up, I mean, South Carolina had
more talent than anybody, and they beat them, and then
South Carolina ends up winning the national title.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
The following year.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
LSU had a ton of talent as well, and they
were the better teams and rightfully so, winning the national championship.
But I don't think because Caitlin Clark didn't win a
title in college that all of a sudden we go,
well that these other players are far superior, because they're not.
Caitlin Clark did things that nobody's ever done before with
the sport and the style that she did it. I mean,
(28:48):
this is what Pete Maravich did, and you know, whether
you liked him or not, he didn't win anything, He
didn't win anything, but he was the greatest score in
the history of the sport. And Caitlin what she did,
how she did it, where she did it. Being white, yeah,
throw it all.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
In the blender.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
It all factors in to whatever degree you choose it
to factor in I just think you have established players
in a predominantly black sport and they're saying, as we
would probably do the same. Oh okay, let me see
what you got. You know, to the opposite the PGA tour.
(29:30):
There were players who did that to Tiger when he
came in. Oh okay, and then all of a sudden
things changed. Let's see what happens with Caitlin this year.
It's a lot of basketball, and the stress level of
all that basketball, everything that happened at Iowa really no break. Now,
all of a sudden, you come in and now you're
(29:51):
playing against better competition every single night, every time down
the floor. Competition's a whole lot different. And she's finding
that out. Doesn't mean she still can't shoot, doesn't mean
she still can't pass. Now you have to shoot quicker.
Now you have to pass quicker. It's a step quicker.
It's got to be. It's got to be. It's got
to be. This isn't this isn't college anymore. When they
(30:15):
put a forearm on you, they're putting a forearm on you.
They're going to knock you down. They're going to knock
you down. It's gonna be a hard found that's what they're.
Speaker 16 (30:21):
Going to do.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Jeff in Kansas City, Hi Jeff, what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (30:29):
dB?
Speaker 20 (30:30):
Best and Worst of the weekend?
Speaker 6 (30:31):
Worst.
Speaker 20 (30:32):
I spent nine hours and forty seven minutes on my bike.
Speaker 10 (30:36):
Best.
Speaker 20 (30:36):
I competed in unbound gravel, which is like the premier
gravel race. Hearing the US finished one hundred and eight
miles distance and the better of the weekend. A guy
in our group or in our race, ninety one years
young finished as well. So that was really damn impressive.
So after retirement, I know you've done soul cycle. Why
(30:58):
don't you come out and ride this with us?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Thank you, Jeff, I go outdoors.
Speaker 18 (31:05):
That's not your style.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Well I did. I did one bike trip. I told
you this.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
My wife and I we took a bike trip from
Atlanta to New Orleans and we did it in six days.
So if you do the math, I didn't get on
the bike again. I had my wife pack it up
and we took the train back from New Orleans to Atlanta.
We still had the bike. I didn't get back on
(31:34):
it again. My wife brought it out. She goes, come on, I.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
Go nope, nope.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
She duped me into thinking taking a bike trip in
the summer from Atlanta to New Orleans was going to
be romantic. There's going to be Spanish moss though, these
beautiful southern mansions. The food will be great. There were bugs.
That was it was extremely hot. There really wasn't a
(32:04):
lot of Spanish moss, and there wasn't a lot of
Southern mansions.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I was miserable.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Every time we'd stop, I'd buy two bags of ice
and I'd put them on my knees like J Yes.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
I was doctor J and you're sweating like Patrick ewing, Yes,
and I'm like. We got to New Orleans. New Orleans
was wonderful.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I just remember they didn't have enough Dixie beer for
me when I got there. We had great food, and
I remember we had a wonderful time. Went to Tippotinas
a few times and saw the radiators, the rads and that.
So it's like childbirth that all right, now, you know, hey,
we should do it again. No, hun No, I'm still
(32:45):
feeling the labor pains of going from Atlanta to New Orleans.
People throwing stuff out of their cars and trucks at us. Yeah,
had a pit bowl that came up on me and
I stopped pedaling.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
No, I wish is not.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
No. This house had a white picket fence and I
see this dog charging out and I go, at least
they got a fence. Well, it only went in the
front of the house. It didn't have the side, so
that damn pit bull went out the side and I'm
I'm pedaling and my wife goes, stop pedaling because he's
going to bite your ankle. And so I got out
(33:30):
my bike pump the tire pump, and I was like,
do I hit this dog so he doesn't bite me.
All of a sudden, we got to a certain point
on the street and he just went and then took
a right turn, went right back home. I'm going then,
I yelled at my wife. This surely is romantic. Having
a great time. We'll take a break, last call for
(33:53):
phone calls.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
Yeah, but let's not focus on that. Let's focus on
pork off.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
I actually google they use it on pools too, But
bathup would have been better.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Mclove, should I walk off?
Speaker 18 (35:03):
If you're a school teacher and you write a lesson
on a blackboard, it's really really good.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
That's called a chalk off. That's right.
Speaker 4 (35:08):
The greatest show on turf, The Running Back there would
have a falk off. Let's be careful here, I don't
hawk and falk Yeah, no, Fritz.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
I was gonna say.
Speaker 15 (35:20):

That would be a sausage off. The judges would looking
for pork off.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Pork off.
Speaker 15 (35:32):
If you come to a spot in the road and
you pick the right road to go down. That would
be a.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
Fork fork off.

jokes that we've been making.

Speaker 3 (35:50):
You actually change it.
Speaker 15 (35:52):
I should.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
It's not like walk and pork.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
It's a talk hawk chalk and you went pork. Yeah,
I see how that doesn't work. You're using your accent.
Your Brooklyn accent is like a palk before.
Speaker 15 (36:11):
Try to bail myself out with the Brooklyn thing.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
But yeah, a legend, what a legend? Eight years ago? Today?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
You're welcome Mark in South Carolina. Hi, Mark, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 12 (36:25):
It's like first time short time five say, I'm wondering
how many of these players might be trying to get
like an nil bump off of becoming famous by harassing
Caitlin Clark. I'll take your comments off there.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Whether there's there's no nil on the pros. It's just
like endorsement salary. A lot of these players. Kennedy Carter,
you don't even know who she is. I mean, she's
not even a starter, I don't think. But they all,
you know, when their friends are saying, hey, Hey, you're
get to check her? Yeah, I got her? Or how'd
(37:03):
you do against her? Hey, don't let her get away.
I mean, this is what goes on, and it's going
to go on until Caitlin Clark, you know, does something
where she proves herself where they don't, you know, try
to punk her.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
And that's what they're trying to do.
Speaker 8 (37:19):
Yes, yes, And it's the most eyeballs that's ever been
on them watching a basketball game in their entire lives. True,
they're going to try to show up and show out
for sure.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Mike and Florida. Hi, Mike, what's on your mind?
Speaker 6 (37:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (37:31):
I just wanted to give my bests and worst of
the weekend. So well, actually two bests. So, first bets
is moved to Florida in twenty twenty, and I don't
know if I'm a good luck charm or something, but
ever since I moved to Florida, the Lightning have gone
to the Final three years in a row and now
the Panthers two years in a row. So I don't know,
maybe I'm the charm. But second bets, me and fiance
(37:53):
looking for a new show to start. Last night came
across your honor because it's now on Netflix. Yeah, I
know you've given some good reviews. Oh man, that's the
first episode. I just looked her. I'm like, we're going
to binge this and it is so good.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
The Mayor of Kingstown with Jeremy Renners great and Hacks
Jeane Smart is off the charts great in my opinion,
Miss Day and sports history, Paul.
Speaker 18 (38:18):
Let's see, I'll give you a couple of good ones.
Eighteen fifty one the New York Knickerbockers. They were a
baseball team. They were the first baseball team to wear
actual uniforms. Now, those weren't like baseball uniforms. They just
wore suits that were coordinated. They wore suits with they
were blue, white vests and straw hats. So they wore
suits whilst playing baseball. Let's see, Oh, this is a
(38:41):
tough one. Two thousand and three, Sammy Sosa broke a
bat when he grounded out against the Tampa Bay devilgrats
and and the bat was corked and exploded all over
the infields. He said it was a bat he used
to show off during batting practice hit bombs, and he
accidentally grabbed it.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Yeah, as opposed to the bomb that he hit with
his other bat in a real game.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
Yep, get out of it. That's try yeah. Eighteen eighty eight.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
This poem first published by the San Francisco Examiner, Todd.
Speaker 15 (39:15):
Take me out to the ball game. But that's not
only a poem, that's a song.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
It's true. See poetic satan. Uh, Casey at the bat,
Casey at the bat? Ding ding ding, Oh, that was
grea Casey at the bat. Who good one? That's a
good one. Yeah, Well, don't spoil the ending.
Speaker 16 (39:36):
And the scoreboard was eighteen and eighty eight, and you
just did something from eighteen eighty eight.
Speaker 15 (39:39):
How about that?
Speaker 3 (39:41):
Yeah, on that train scoreboard today is eighteen eighty eight. Uh.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
A guy, a gentleman named Thayer wrote, Casey at the bat.
I don't know his first name. Ernest, Oh, Ernest Big, Ernie,
Ernie big, Earn big Earn, Casey at the bat. See
now Casey's striking out. He'd be okay in today's game.
Speaker 3 (39:58):
It's okay.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
Hey, you struck down, No big deal. Spoiler, Yeah, get
them get him next time.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
Magic.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
In nineteen eighty four, he said an NBA Finals record,
he had twenty one assists in a win against the
Celtics in Game three. Uh, Michael Jordan, Oh, this was
the shrug game nineteen ninety two. Jordan goes for thirty five,
including six three pointers. That was Game one of the
NBA Finals, the shrug game. Didn't Luca have a shrug
(40:28):
here recently?
Speaker 6 (40:29):
Did?
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Yeah? He did? Yeah? I think that's a callback here.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
I think Caitlin Clark kind of you know, we're starting
to shrug a little bit. Atlas shrugged. See what I
did with that too? Are you feeling familiar with Atlas shrug?
Speaker 15 (40:41):
Not really?
Speaker 16 (40:42):
I know that like the Atlas, like holding up the
big No. No, I don't know who Alas shrugg?
Speaker 3 (40:46):
No, okay, you.
Speaker 15 (40:48):
Didn't give you a bloop. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
You're the one that graduated second in your class at
six hundred.
Speaker 15 (40:52):
It's more of a math science.
Speaker 3 (40:55):
Todd. Would you learn today?
Speaker 16 (40:57):
Justin Jefferson got a new lucrative deal from the Vikings
other receivers Joyson, but not the owners Seaton?
Speaker 3 (41:02):
What did you learn today?
Speaker 4 (41:03):
James Worthy was better than Michael Jordan for exactly three weeks.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
But he was better than Mike for three weeks. Yeah,
Marvin Paulie is pro Canada. Yeah, my Panthers against the Oilers.
Paulie James Worthy was almost a Cleveland cavalier. What we
learned brought to you by McGuire's new hybrid ceramic washing
wax in a bucket or a foam cannon boost protection
with extreme water beating technology. The next time you wash
