You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
In this Tuesday, we'll talk some baseball. Harold Reynolds, Major
League Baseball Network will stop by. We spent a little
time recapping what we saw last night. Just a bad
night for football. You had the Tyreek ill Tyreek Hill injury.
He's gone for the rest of the regular season, postseason,
and perhaps part of next season as well. The Bengals
(00:25):
were held without a touchdown for the first time since
twenty twenty three. But what's more alarming is they had
fewer than one hundred and seventy five yards of offense.
In the previous nine seasons, the Bengals have had fewer
than one hundred and seventy five yards of offense two times.
They've done it three times through the first four games
(00:46):
of this season.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Woow stead of a day, stant of to day, start
outa day, stant out a day. This is the start
of the day.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Brought to you Bob Panini America, the official trading cards
for The Dan Patrick Show. Good morning. If you're watching
on Peacock, Thank you Big ten. Saturday Night Minnesota Ohio
State on NBC in Peacock, Here comes Saturday Night presented
by Discovery eight seven seven three DP show. More phone
calls coming up. We will update the poll results from
our two come up with the poll question for the
(01:22):
final hour of the program. Dane and El Paso. Hi Dane,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (01:29):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (01:29):
How are you good?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
I had a couple of comments on the passhole shirt. Okay,
I'm from El Paso, so when I wear that shirt,
they're going to take the comment is that Kinky Friedman song.
I'll keep it clean, but it's I'm just a passole
from al Paso, So I think that's what the reference is.
And when you know, when when he was, when Fritzy was,
(01:52):
I know he's great, but when he was going on
and on and on about the left lane and Rovo,
you know Rovo one. I have a theory about the
bagel shop. I think they saw him coming and that
girl has said, no, we don't have bagels, we don't
have tula, the bathrooms are broken.
Speaker 7 (02:10):
Just leave.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
Thank you. Dan.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
The passol t shirt is live on Dan patrick dot com.
Tomorrow's the last day that you can get it and
pay tribute to Todd Fritz and his driving abilities. Kelly
and Chico or no, Keith and Chico. Hi Keith, welcome back.
Speaker 8 (02:27):
Hey, good morning guys. I just had a thought and
a few questions for you. I had an idea for
the podcast. Fritzie could play some sort of makeshift driving instructor.
It's got to correct people's driving, but give his own
terrible advice and it's just comically bad through the whole way.
I also wanted to ask what the going rate is
for a Kirk Cousins or Russell Wilson right now that
(02:49):
they're kind of in some demand. What does the team
need to offer for one of those guys?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Probably almost nothing. For Russell Wilson, the Kirk d Cousins,
he still gets paid a lot of money. Somebody's going
to have to pick up part of that check. Thank
you for the phone call. Eddie and Denver. Hi Eddie,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (03:08):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Good morning and Dan.
Speaker 9 (03:10):
Second time, long time. I've got a couple more T
shirt ideas based on the Fritzy passable gate. Okay, First
would be a pictured a rearview mirror image of Green
Day's Billy Joe Armstrong and you Dan stay in Fritzy
get out of our lane.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, Todd stays in his lane. Yeah, I've been told
to stay in my lane when it comes to criticizing,
critiquing green Day.
Speaker 10 (03:36):
I went and looked really quick at Kirk Cousins contract.
If they don't trade him the Falcons, they really have
him on the roster the next two seasons at about
forty seven million dollars per season or more actually, and
the only good news is that Michael Pennox is on
a rookie deal, so their total cost of quarterback is
controlled because of that.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Dolphins hold off the Jets. Tyreek Hill dislocated me and
torn ligaments. The Broncos embarrassed the Bengals. They went it
to twenty eight to three New Pole question Seaton or
let's clean up what the hour two results were?
Speaker 6 (04:13):
Yeah, we put up there for hour two.
Speaker 11 (04:15):
Have you could pick one you'd be as tall as
you want, you can have perfect care and never lose it.
Or you could pick a weight and stay there all
right now. Weight is the thing that people are most
want to stay at about sixty eight percent. I find
that interesting because of the three options, that's the one
thing you're actually in control of, and people would rather
(04:37):
just have it.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
Done for them. Okay, I think that's interesting and pole
question for the final hour. Any let's see.
Speaker 11 (04:45):
We also have if it's not even it's not even
October yet, which NFL team has already done. That's the
Titans and the Jets are who we thought they were.
Only seventeen percent of the audience think they're better than
their record.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
The Bengals are two and two, but they don't feel
as good as a team that's winless right now. Well
they feel better than the Titans too, But I mean
the Saints were still in that game a little bit
in Buffalo. Yeah, I didn't think they were going to
be good. Cleveland's, you know, kind of toying with the
idea of going with Dylan Gabriel. Here you got another
(05:24):
game overseas. They're going to play the Viking. I don't
want Dylan Gabriel going against Brian Flora's defense.
Speaker 6 (05:30):
I'd prefer not to. Now.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
You know, when we were talking about this with Jackson
Dart and we had swagoo on, he goes, no, what
do you or yeah, did we have swago no booger
McFarlane and he said, oh, come on, you know, get.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
The kid out there, let him play it.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Because I said, well, do we wait and have him
play against the Saints on the road or at home
against the Chargers.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Well, it worked out, worked out, and that building was alive.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Scoataboo in there, Jackson Dart and you're going, all right,
I already got something to see. And that's what I
was told by somebody with the Giants. They wanted to
make sure that they weren't the fans, weren't selling their tickets.
They wanted to make sure that that was filled with
Giants fans because that's long been one of the toughest tickets,
if not the toughest ticket in New York to get
(06:21):
season tickets to the Giants. Colby in California, Hi, Colby,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (06:28):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (06:29):
How you doing good?
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (06:30):
I had a IT team request.
Speaker 13 (06:34):
I was wondering if your boys could find out how
many Penn State players were drafted by the Chargers in
the last ten fifteen years. Because I think it's safe to.
Speaker 14 (06:46):
Say that the Nitney Lyons are the Chargers of college football?
Speaker 13 (06:50):
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And Arizona basketball is the Chargers of college basketball?
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
And I have nothing against these teams. I like Jim Harbaugh.
You know, Justin Herbert, you got to call it like
you see it. I mean, there's only so much you
can do. If you're hoping for somebody to be successful,
they have to be able to prove that they can
be successful and win a game on the road Penn State.
All I care about is how do you do against
(07:25):
a big time opponent. You can tell me how many
players you've sent to the NFL, how many times you've
finished in the top ten or top fifteen. All we
care about is the bottom line with certain franchises and
certain quarterbacks. Jim Harbaugh can tell me Justin Herbert is
going to be the greatest quarterback in NFL history. And
the first thing I would say is I need to
(07:46):
see him do something in the postseason. Lamar Jackson might
be the greatest quarterback of all time. Steve Young talked
about that might end up being the greatest quarterback of
all time.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
But you know why he won't be the.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Greatest quarterback of all time is he's not going to
have any postseason awards trophies. And until he gets that,
you're not in the conversation. He could win five or
six MVPs. But you know what happens with that is
how many times you win a title like Aaron Rodgers
and maybe the most talented player ever played the position.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
How many titles won?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
All these MVPs, and there's certain players certain positions. You know,
even to Peyton Manning, he had to achieved, if you're
honest about it, with all those MVPs. He did get
the one super Bowl and then we know what happened
in the second one. He gets credit for that, But
you know, when you're having all those MVPs, I want
(08:43):
to see what you do in the postseason. By the way,
Peyton on the Manning cast said, in his entire career,
his team never did any halftime adjustments. He goes, I
went to the bathroom, I had some oranges and that
was it. Maybe he's joking because they probably needed to
(09:03):
do some adjustments, certainly when they faced New England. I'm guessing.
I'm guessing, Nope, we're going to continue to do what
we're doing. Wait, they're man handling our wide receiver.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
We're going to continue to do it. Okay, Yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 10 (09:15):
I went back and looked at Penn State. I think
one of their biggest problems is they've never had a
star quarterback player, a guy who played like a star,
like they had Sean Clifford for like seven years or
Trace McSorley.
Speaker 15 (09:26):
Those guys were good.
Speaker 10 (09:27):
The last quarterback taken in the first two rounds for
Penn State was Christian Hackenber and he started great but
tailed off. And they've never had the Cam Newton. They've
never had the Manzell, a guy who they never had
a Robert Griffin that took him to New Heights. And
they may have won this year, but it's.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
He cooled off a little.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah, but he's been around for a while right now.
I though they talked about being a first round pick,
a high first round pick, Okay, I mean I watched,
I'm waiting. I love Trace McSorley, but you know, I'm
he might have been like a one or two star recruit.
Maybe I don't know, a career backup in the NFL.
(10:09):
I mean, I liked his his gumption, his grit, but
sometimes it's nice to go, man, my guy is the
most talented guy out there.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
Not my guy's gritty and gutty.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Uh Simon in Virginia, Hi Simon, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (10:27):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (10:28):
You good?
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Hey?
Speaker 14 (10:31):
Better comparison, uh Kirk Cousins, D Joel Holdstein or Cam
Moore D Randall Cunningham.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Uh, I'm gonna I'm gonna play the long game with
Cam Moore. I'm gonna gonna play the long game with him.
Uh Parrin in South Dakota.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Hopefully I got that right.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
See did Dan? Thanks for taking the colts.
Speaker 16 (10:57):
Dan Sava the day for you. Patrick's tan has matched
up against Jamar Chase on fifty four manna man routes.
Jamar Chase has four catches for thirty five yards and
no touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Stat of the day, stat of the day, That pass
stat of the day, stat.
Speaker 12 (11:16):
Of the day here it comes that what stat of
the day?
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America,
the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Well,
that's why he was the defensive Player of the Year.
He's out there, he's locking you down.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Now.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
It does help that you got a great pass rush.
It wasn't there the first half of the game last night,
but that's the team that led the NFL in sacks.
It starts up front. If I put pressure on you
all of a sudden, you're a lot better defensive back.
But he's a great defensive player, yes, Ton.
Speaker 15 (11:51):
One thing's for certain. Chase is not putting up any
big numbers against Pat.
Speaker 12 (11:56):
It's backtalk.
Speaker 15 (11:58):
One things for certan.
Speaker 12 (12:00):
Yeh, how do you think first he's done today?
Speaker 6 (12:02):
Not well? Not well, you're quiet for twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And then with that, Yeah, yeah, I do root for you.
Speaker 6 (12:12):
I do.
Speaker 15 (12:14):
It took a while just to come up with that.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
That's just height, but I don't know why. Thank you,
We were fine without it.
Speaker 15 (12:19):
Yeah, back to the drawing board. That shouldn't be drawing
in the first place. Not very artistic.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Shuffles in Phoenix high shuffles. Welcome back, Good morning.
Speaker 13 (12:32):
So I'm driving into work. You brought up Arizona and
the Chargers again, and that's not a good analogy. Arizona
has a national championship. They should have three. The Chargers
don't have any. So I just quit throwing them under
the bus. They got a national championship, and I have
no doubt in my mind that the Arizona Wildcats are
(12:52):
going to get another one. That's just a quick thought.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
Well, okay, how long ago is that national title?
Speaker 13 (13:00):
It still occurred?
Speaker 6 (13:01):
I know, I know, ninety seven.
Speaker 13 (13:05):
It was ninety seven.
Speaker 6 (13:07):
Okay, so but they won it.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
I know, congratulations they did. But how many times have
they been a number one seed?
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Here?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Shuffles and they bow out early? Number one overall seat
bown out early. They haven't been good, they have not
been good in the postseason.
Speaker 13 (13:27):
Correct, well, there's been less than ideal.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Thank you, shuffles.
Speaker 11 (13:35):
Yes, Seaton, you go home and like your wife is, like,
you know, you never help around the house.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Would be great if you did, I help all the time.
Really win ninety seven?
Speaker 10 (13:44):
It occurred, yes to are we all still haunted by
our bracket seats?
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yes?
Speaker 15 (13:48):
X x X Arizona all the way through.
Speaker 6 (13:50):
And I say that.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I say it because I've experienced it every year I've
had the chart.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
This is the year for the chart.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
You know, I got the Chargers and then I had
Arizona Wildcats. No, I've paid a price here, public humiliation.
We want a title ninety seven? Okay, that's a dynasty, UCLA, Arizona, Duke,
(14:19):
North Carolina. What else do we Derek and Tucson, Hey Derek,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 5 (14:29):
Hey? Good morning Dan. It's actually Eric, but no, no problem. Hey,
I wanted to offer a just pate on Todd's on
the podcast.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Yeah, and it's.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
Based on the Are you familiar with the horseshoe theories
and bear with me on this No, but the horses
theory basically says that the two furthest points from the
center of the horseshoe are actually most similar. So I
suggested be Paully and Todd not once a week, maybe
once a month, because there's a cross over there where
(15:00):
so opposite sometimes they sound pretty similar. And then secondly,
I think that you have a niche podcast branch if
you will, between Shay and Todd and I don't know
what you do, you go it under, but you know
the way that Shay opens up to you, the way
that Todd opens up to you. I think you can
have a mental health podcast network based off of that brand.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I would need mental health if I'm going to do it.
That would thank you, Derek. I'm open to Todd doing
a podcast. I don't want to be involved in it.
Speaker 15 (15:33):
That hurts my feelings a little bit.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
No, I'm with you three hours on the air a lot.
I'm with you six or seven hours.
Speaker 15 (15:40):
A day, and then at nights and weekends.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
No.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
No, but if you want to do it, and you
want that outlet and somebody wants to do it with
you here, Great, Shay is on with the Gambling podcast,
and sometimes we talk about gambling a lot of times
we talk about Shaye in his previous lives. But if
you want to do that and you think somebody's interested
in that, Todd go away.
Speaker 15 (16:04):
Well, there's got to be somebody out there that might
find something. We'll put it up remotely entertained.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
We'll put it up on the Danpatrick dot com. If
that's what you want to do.
Speaker 15 (16:13):
Mario in the back has been a big our director
has been a big fan of that. He's mentioned it
on and Dylan actually too a number of times that
the that's something we should look at. And I think
Ray even mentioned it as well.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Okay, if those guys want to sit in a very
supportive Okay, if they want to sit in then great.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
All right, yeah, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 12 (16:32):
I'm assuming I got I got to record it.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
You two, you would have to sit in there unless
you can teach somebody how to do it.
Speaker 12 (16:37):
I'll be in there.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
All Right, we're talking some baseball. Harold Reynolds, Major League

after this.

MLB Network Analyst, two time All Star Harold Reynolds.
Speaker 6 (17:47):
HR, how are you d P, my man?
Speaker 7 (17:50):
How you doing?
Speaker 6 (17:51):
Everything's great? Everything's great.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Look at you on the set there ready for Afternoon Baseball,
suit and tie.
Speaker 6 (17:57):
Give me the overall favorite in the playoffs.
Speaker 7 (18:01):
Well, for me, the overall favorite is the Dodgers.
Speaker 17 (18:04):
I mean you start looking at they got to August
into September, they got healthy, and they're the team to be.
The pitchings lined up, hitting, the offense, the whole, the
whole thing.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
It's all there.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
Why did they have a dip in pitching was a
real question mark for them.
Speaker 7 (18:21):
You know, they went to some injuries.
Speaker 17 (18:23):
Obviously, Glass and Now went out for a while, Snell
started to season out. Uh Sasaki didn't throw like they
thought he might. You know my mooto midst time show,
Hey start, that's it.
Speaker 7 (18:33):
It was a litany of injuries. But now they're all
lined up.
Speaker 17 (18:36):
You're looking at Snell, Glassnews not even scheduled to throw
the first round, Kershaw either and you still so you're
looking at Yamamoto, Snell, and Otani the first round.
Speaker 7 (18:48):
So we'll see.
Speaker 17 (18:49):
I think the interesting thing Dan, real quick, I throw
this in is Otani. If you look at the numbers
the day after he pitches, he's hitting like one thirty,
and so he will have he will pitch and have
a day off. And they figured out figured that out
throughout the course of the season that if we give
him a day off, after he pitches, the next day,
he's back hitting and everything takes off.
Speaker 7 (19:10):
So they're working that. You can look for that throughout
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
We had Mark prior to the Dodgers pitching coach on
a little while ago, and he said that they would
entertain the idea of using Otawanni in relief. But it's
difficult to have somebody like when do you warm up?
And if he's warming up, you want him in. You're
going to have him out.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
In the field. So I think it's a little trickier.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
But the deeper they get into the postseason, more likely
or less likely to see Otani out of the bullpen.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Well, you can see him out of the bullpen.
Speaker 17 (19:41):
It's different than when I was playing or when we
were around covering a lot of baseball because of the facilities.
You know, the Dodgers had one hundred million dollars renovation
to the clubhouse. They have all the pitching mounds and
everything under there, so guys go underneath now can actually
throw and get ready without He can do that in
between innings and be ready to go out and warm
(20:02):
up so that that could be a reason that they
could use him out of the.
Speaker 7 (20:05):
Pen, which I hadn't thought about before much.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
But can you see a scenario where somebody wins somebody
else wins the MVP than Otani given the fact that
he does have that I'm pitching and hitting.
Speaker 17 (20:18):
No, I mean, just the fact that he pitches is
a trump card. That's that's like you, Dan, you can
suep pre throws, You're gonna win, right, I mean, look.
Speaker 7 (20:27):
It's the extra thing. Every year.
Speaker 17 (20:29):
Every player knows they're going up against it. I think
you got a great argument in the American League when
you're looking at cal Rawley and Aaron Judge, and if
one of those guys pitched, it wouldn't be a conversation,
just not but.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
You got one that catches, and I think there should
be added value to that.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
There should be bonus points for cal Rawly.
Speaker 17 (20:47):
I have cal Rawly winning it if he was not
a catcher, that's not a conversation. But for a catcher
to do what he's doing, catch and hit sixty home runs.
But on top of that, what's the job of the
catcher always been make sure your pitching staff is taken
care of you're hitting is a bonus. Well, he had
a big time bonus and he's a Platinum Glove defender,
(21:09):
so I don't see the argument.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Well, Judge has gotten to that point almost like Michael Jordan,
where we're like, all right, he hit fifty, Like hitting
fifty is still a big deal to me. But and
Judge had the average. But I do find this interesting
with the analytics and the analyst they go, hey, don't
forget about Judge's batting average. I go, well, wait a minute,
the analytics told me to not think about batting average.
(21:33):
Now we think about batting average. You can't have it
both ways here.
Speaker 17 (21:37):
I have the same argument with Ryan Kenny all the
time he throws a different Oh that's a justin ballpark rate.
I'm like, every time you throw a different one at me,
it's just not the way it's supposed to be.
Speaker 7 (21:50):
So I'm on your side with that.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
How would you sum up the Mets season?
Speaker 17 (21:56):
Man biggest disappointment in the sport to be first place
in June one and to fall apart. Obviously they can
point to the pitching injuries, but I look at the
fact they didn't address it. You know, they addressed the bullpen,
but they didn't get the pitching taken care of. And
you just can't have that payroll, go out and get
a player for one hundred seven hundred and sixty five
(22:16):
million and not make the playoffs. There's twelve teams in
the big leagues in the playoffs. There's only thirty teams
in the league.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
It just can't happen.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Talking to Harold Reynolds, you can see him MLB tonight
the National pregame show they're on at noon, and throughout
the postseason and the World Series we.
Speaker 7 (22:36):
Address and normally I'd have a hoodie on like you, Daniel.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
I know, I know you'd be casual. If not the
Dodgers in the National League, then who.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
Then the Phillies. I think the Phillies are there.
Speaker 17 (22:50):
If the Phillies had Wheeler healthy, I think I.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
May lean even greater to them.
Speaker 17 (22:56):
Although the Dodgers I think are a step above everybody else.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
Will be very interesting. They'll make it competitive.
Speaker 17 (23:03):
How the brackets are set up, I don't know if
you dove into that much, but that really opens the
window for that other side, for the for those guys
to sneak in.
Speaker 7 (23:12):
Because now the Dodgers win this.
Speaker 17 (23:14):
Round, they play the Phillies, and those three are the
best two teams in the National League.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
Who's your pick in the American League?
Speaker 17 (23:22):
The American League? I got Seattle, and that's not a
homer move, you know. It's just the fact that they
got the best pitching. They're playing great ball right now,
and I think it's gonna line up pretty good for
the Mariners to win it. I think they're the best
team in the American League. If not them, then I
would say the Yankees, and most other people would pick
the Blue Jay. So you got some pretty good runners
and opportunities to make some runs.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
But I think the Mariners are the team to be.
Speaker 6 (23:44):
Do you think the Angels ever entertained trading Mike Trump.
Speaker 17 (23:49):
I don't know at this point in time, that window
might have passed. I thought they should have made that
move maybe three or four years ago.
Speaker 14 (23:58):
Now.
Speaker 17 (24:00):
I don't know if Mike's ready to move on or
if already's ready to move him. But I would still
have to look at it if I was the Angels.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Is he still a great player?
Speaker 5 (24:11):
Oh?
Speaker 17 (24:11):
Yeah, he's still a great player. I think we're seeing
him start to get healthy again. I mean, he's still
had twenty plus home runs. He played you know, half
the season really, so I think he's getting back to
where he's healthy and playing and he's still in the
right lineup, a very potent player.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
He's played in three postseason games.
Speaker 7 (24:32):
That's a shame, shame, shame.
Speaker 17 (24:35):
It's just hard to imagine, especially when I just talked
about with the format now for twelve of the thirty
teams are now to be in the playoffs and Mike
Trott's only been there three times and that was under
the old format.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, the automated balls and strikes. We had the commissioner
on and he said, all right, we're going to roll
this out just a little bit and we know how
this goes. How long until we have automated balls and
strikes full time? Oh?
Speaker 17 (25:03):
I think that's going to happen right away. They tested
in spring training last year. The players didn't have a
whole lot of pushback. I think really it'll go full
That's going to be part of the basic agreement coming up.
You know, when that agreement expires in another year, that's
going to be on the table in conversation. But I
think the players of it liked it. The one thing
(25:25):
we're saying in baseball, you saw the all new the
new rule changes, with the stolen bases and the pitch
timer and everything else. We have a generation of players
now that have grown up with all those things. Yeah,
played in the minor leagues with a pitch timer and
with the pickoff rules. They played in the minor leagues
with the new ball strikes system. That's what they've grown
(25:47):
up on. So it's not as foreign to the player
as it is maybe to the viewer.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Why is it when we talk best swings in the
game or of all time, they're always left handed hitters.
Speaker 7 (26:00):
I don't know why.
Speaker 17 (26:01):
I have a guess, because you just kind of drop
the bat and it just it's almost like a pretty
golf swing. But one thing that's happening now in this generation,
you don't hear people say what a pretty swing. You
don't hear him say, Aaron Judge has a pretty swing.
Cayle Rawley has a pretty swing. You don't hear that
anymore because we're so into ah, gotta grunt everything out
(26:23):
instead of guys with just easy, fluid swings. We don't
see that a whole lot anymore.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Ken Griffy Junior, the greatest swing in baseball history.
Speaker 17 (26:33):
If you don't say so, he'll come get He's the
greatest swing.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Who would be comparable to his swing in today's game?
It could be all time. Is there another swing that
comes close to that?
Speaker 17 (26:51):
It doesn't come to your mind that easy, that quickly.
Speaker 15 (26:55):
I don't.
Speaker 7 (26:55):
I can't think of anybody else.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Like Paul Merrow had a really good swing.
Speaker 17 (27:00):
Merril had a nice swing. Uh, there was a number
of guys. Chipper Jones was pretty good from the left side.
You started thinking about guy's swings, but nobody was as
pretty as Griffy And I think it was because he
had the hat backwards, he had an earring and he
just kind of stood there and watched it too.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
That helps to be able to do that.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
But right handed hitters like nobody says, Pooholes, what a
beautiful swing, or Mark McGuire or Paul molletor it's like.
Speaker 7 (27:24):
No, what we started doing now is we kind of
spin him around.
Speaker 17 (27:27):
You know, see, if he was left hand, it didn't
be a pretty swing.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Darryl Strawberry had a pretty swing.
Speaker 7 (27:33):
Yes he did, Yes, straw did.
Speaker 17 (27:35):
But there was a lot of guys back in the day,
you know that that had that left handed stroke that
just seemed to work.
Speaker 7 (27:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
I remember Paul Molletor had one of the quickest swings,
like through this through the zone, like it was so compact,
so quick. It wasn't a beautiful swing. I just remember
watching him. It was like, you know, Bond, nobody's quicker
through the zone than Bonds.
Speaker 7 (27:59):
No, nobody quicker than Barry.
Speaker 17 (28:01):
And even Barry, they don't say, what a pretty swing, No.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
No stride.
Speaker 17 (28:06):
He just to get that bath through the zone so quick.
I love Fernatal Tattoosa's finished.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
Okay, he puts up, he.
Speaker 17 (28:12):
Puts a little flare on it. Even sho Hail Tani
started to put some flair on it. Now you know,
he's getting Americanized a little bit. He's sitting there, he's
showing some balls. He's standing there showing people up. He's something, though. Man,
have you seen him in person.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Yeah, he's a big guy.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Oh my goodness, he's a big It's like when I
saw Yoo ming for the first time mm hmm, and
he was he was some Like you know, I thought
Shaq was big or Mark Eaton, and then you see him,
I go, oh my god, Like when I saw cam
Cam Newton is another guy I saw cam in personally
kind of lee.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
What a you're playing quarterback?
Speaker 4 (28:51):
You know.
Speaker 17 (28:52):
I was on the beach in Miami one day and
we're walking and all of a sudden, the shadow came
over Shack and.
Speaker 7 (28:59):
I was like, oh, you just keep going up.
Speaker 17 (29:02):
I never saw y'all ming, but Shack was enormous, and
then he had all the girth.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
To go with it. He was enormous. You know the diesel,
the diesel, come with the baby diesel. You know, I
do my day. Dan Patrick can shut the hell up.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Uh Okay, if you're the Pirates, do you do anything
with Schemes? If you're Schemes, do you do anything with
the Pirates?
Speaker 17 (29:24):
Well, schemes doesn't have a whole lot of leverage because
that's just kind of the contract. If I were the Pirates,
they're gonna hate me for saying this, but we said
it all summer, so I may as well say it again.
I would have pulled a hearseel Walker trade and I
would have dealt him, and I would have got back
a whole new franchise of players and turned the whole
losing thing around and started winning. I just think his
(29:44):
value is so high and if you're not gonna put
players around him and invest to put that team around him,
then you gotta trade him or else he's gonna be
a free agent. You're gonna go through the same thing
and went through with Garrett Cole. You're gonna go through
the same thing you've been It's been repeating itself. At
some point you got to flip the franchise and be
able to turn it around.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Good to talk to you, have fun today.
Speaker 7 (30:07):
I DP appreciate your brother.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Thank you, Harold Reynolds. He is an MLB network analyst.
They get started here coming up top of the hour,
it'll be uh MLB tonight the National pregame show. A
couple of phone calls in here eight seven seven three
DP show James and Charlotte. Hi James, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 7 (30:30):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (30:30):
Dan and Dannetz.
Speaker 18 (30:32):
I had a take on the Ryder Cup from over
the weekend. I was really disappointed with the fans and
the way everybody reacted and how the European team was
treated and watching the whole broadcast. The more I watched it,
the more I had the feeling. I look at Justin
(30:53):
Thomas and he's trying to calmpute play. But the more
I watched it, the more I see Bryce and the
Shambo cheering for him South and really play into the crowd.
And I think that Bryson had a lot to do
with the fan behavior.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Oh, I'm not going to pin it on him. I
think this was a two year build up, Jameh Jane.
They encouraged this, We talked about this. It was going
to be all wait till they get to Bethpage Black
and yeah that that fan grew fan base in New
York and all of that stuff. So this was not
on I'm not going to put that on the Shambo.
(31:30):
They felt like the crowd reacted to him more than
any other golfer, and they reacted against Rory McElroy. I
just don't I didn't understand that you're watching one of
the greatest golfers in history. He won the career Grand Slam,
and like I would be watching that and marveling at
(31:51):
what I'm watching, but you know, to root against him,
and then you know, I saw the guy who threw
the beer, the drink that hit his wife, and he's
celebrating it, Like, what did we have done? I know
it's a small sample size, but we're better than that,
aren't we. Nope, it's it's golf. It became more to
(32:13):
people who aren't golf fans, and you know that was
part of the problem. You had a lot of people
who weren't golf fans and didn't treat it. And yes,
is it like the phoenix open the waste, Yes, but
there's a time and a place for everything. I just
think the worst thing that happened was the Europeans dominated
(32:36):
the first two days and everybody came out to yell
and scream, but they had nothing to yell and scream
about until they did. And then you know, you add
liquor to it and not a good look, not a
good look at all. Maybe it'll be different in Ireland.
Maybe we'll be there at a dare manor bringing the
(32:57):
show over there. We're gonna we're gonna teach. We're going
to show the Irish how it's done, how we can
be polite, and you know.
Speaker 11 (33:05):
The Irish the issue in Long Island.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
No, just that group there, well, a lot of times
they are, but not in this case. But you know,
we will go over there and we'll show Ireland in
the rest of the world how Americans act right, Todd, Yeah.
Speaker 15 (33:21):
We need to have better behavior.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
Thanks. Not acceptable.
Speaker 15 (33:25):
There's a time and a place for that.
Speaker 10 (33:26):
Yeah, Paul, I'm looking this at dare manner right now.
Holy cow, yep. I mean it's like like a castle,
but close.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
It felt like a castle when I stayed in it
at a bar in the basement.
Speaker 6 (33:36):
I remember we were drinking.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
They were talking about a scotch that was one hundred
and fifty dollars a shot. And it wasn't my credit card,
it was somebody else's, a big time executive, and he
left his card there and I said, I'm sorry, and
we're gonna have to put a dent in this American Express.
Speaker 7 (33:56):
And we did.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
I think we had three thousand dollars worth his shots
on there.
Speaker 10 (34:02):
How do you say maxed out in Gaileen?
Speaker 12 (34:05):
Yes, mar So, we're going to be the ones that
represent American fans.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Yes, yes, a whole bunch of oh yes guys, Yes, yes.
Speaker 15 (34:14):
Tom, We're gonna have to mind our manner and behavior already.
Speaker 6 (34:18):
H we'll take a break glass call for phone calls.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
What we learn, we'll have Todd grade his performance today.
Speaker 6 (34:27):
We're back after this.

Red Sox and Yankees have met twenty four times in
the postseason. Each team has won twelve times. Something has
to give, there, Todd.
Speaker 15 (34:49):
Something has to give.
Speaker 6 (34:50):
Thank you. No ties, No ties in baseball.
Speaker 15 (34:54):
Ties are terrible, Thank you, Tom.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Yeah, Ross Tucker, Sir, we was.
Speaker 6 (35:01):
Venting about times.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Yeah, if you can come up with something great, I
like sudden death and then all of a sudden, Hey,
we didn't get a chance.
Speaker 6 (35:08):
You got to get a chance.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Okay, it's it's it's if you get to overtime. It
should be over in a certain amount of time, yes, Bo.
Speaker 10 (35:18):
The current overtime is ten minutes. If you added five
more minutes, does that reduce the chance of a time?
How much does that reduce the chance or.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
The number of injuries too, because that that's but that's
a big issue here that they're trying to have less plays.
Speaker 12 (35:31):
Yes, time, I kind of like what you just said there.
Speaker 15 (35:34):
Overtime should be over in a certain amount of time.
Speaker 6 (35:36):
Thank you, Todd.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
James and Nashville, Hey James.
Speaker 19 (35:42):
Hey, Hey, DP first time long time five to ten
and a half and a hard one ninety five.
Speaker 13 (35:49):
It's hard.
Speaker 19 (35:52):
I don't know if I need to get out more
or what, but I love rhyme time by uh Fritzy. Oh,
I played with my friends. So thank you, Fritzy. You've
given us an entertainment. But what I wanted to bring
up is, uh, you know, you're talking about having super
Bowls to be greatest of all time, Manning only having two.
I'm just wondering, start thinking a little skewed from basketball?
(36:15):
How you know Lebron's been there eight straight finals, Brady
has seven. You know it's the ultimate team sport with
twenty two guys on the field at one time. I'm
just curious if you know our thinking is a little skewed.
Speaker 6 (36:28):
Yes, absolutely.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
You know John Havelcheck went eight to oh in NBA finals.
Speaker 6 (36:36):
It can come up.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
We talked about Jordan, and yes, Jordan was a better
player than John Halcheck. But if you look at John
Habilchek's stats, you got.
Speaker 6 (36:46):
Some free time. Just look at his numbers.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I think he had twenty six twenty seven thousand career points.
He didn't lose in NBA.
Speaker 6 (36:53):
Finals, stole the ball that one time. Yeah, he had
that he tipped it.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
I don't know if he stole it according to Johnny
Most but Hablchack tipped the ball.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
Doesn't sound as good as Halcheck stole the ball.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Yeah, but yes, do we put too much emphasis on it? Yes,
we do, But that's the climate. Everybody knows. When you
sign up, it's about winning championship. Barry Bonds didn't win anything.
You can't tell me how many titles Babe Ruth had, right,
how many championships?
Speaker 6 (37:29):
Babe?
Speaker 7 (37:32):
I know?
Speaker 6 (37:32):
Yogi?
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I think at eight? Does anybody bring up Yogi is
one of the great players of all time?
Speaker 12 (37:37):
Think like ten?
Speaker 6 (37:39):
He won ten? I thought he won eight.
Speaker 10 (37:43):
Yeah, Pauline, I have Babe Ruth winning seven World Series.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
But nobody knows that. It's not right off your tongue there,
Bill Russell won eleven. Okay, we pick and choose with that, Yeah, Marv.
Speaker 20 (37:56):
Yeah, I always say it about baseball. Baseball is about
the numbers. Know how many World Series Stan Usual has?
But that isn't all right, Derek Jeter, Derek Juda has
five World Serious titles.
Speaker 12 (38:06):
I do know that, Yeah, but.
Speaker 20 (38:08):
No one ever says he's the greatest shortstop of all
time because he has five World Series titles. It's different
with Kobe and Tim Duncan. They are considered the best
at their positions because of how many titles they want,
But not for Derek Jeter.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
You know, we were talking about Ted Williams last week
or the week before and missing three years of service.
He missed five years of service. He was in two
World wars. I believe he was in World War two
in the Korean War. So he missed five seasons and
he's still bat it. He still hit five hundred and
twenty one home runs if you give him thirty a year, Like,
(38:44):
imagine you miss time and it's to go be a
gunner on a planet, you know, on a fighter jet.
You know you're in here in World War two and
you're in Korean War.
Speaker 6 (38:56):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 10 (38:58):
Pulling his first year back from militaryrry service, he hit
three forty two and won the MVP. He took three
years off and got the MVP.
Speaker 15 (39:06):
Yes, did they have batting cages in the military. How
did he keep up his swing off time?
Speaker 2 (39:11):
And it's not like he was just a good will ambassador.
He's on these fighter planes. Wow, let's see this day
in sports history.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
Paul right on Cue.
Speaker 10 (39:25):
Babe Ruth hit home run number sixty nineteen twenty seven,
breaking his own record. That record stood until nineteen sixty one.
Roger Morris got it. Hank Aaron in nineteen seventy three
finished the season one home run short of Bay Ruth
seven fourteen. He broke it early in the seventy four season,
and Chris McAllister, how about this and O two of
(39:46):
the Ravens return to miss field goal one hundred and
eight yards.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
On the state nineteen eighty four, the Rams set an
NFL record three safeties, they had two to one block
punts out of the end zone, and they beat the
Giants thirty three twelve. Also on this date, twenty twelve,
this team became the second team in history to have
a three hundred yard passer, two one hundred yard rushers,
and two one hundred yard receivers in the same game.
(40:15):
Second team in history, Your New England Patriots. They beat
the Buffalo Bills fifty two to twenty eight. Let's go
around the room. What we learned on the program Tod'd
you learn anything?
Speaker 20 (40:26):
Ross Tucker reminds us it's the thrill of victory and
in agony defeat ties are terrible.
Speaker 15 (40:29):
There's nothing memorable about a time.
Speaker 6 (40:31):
What's your grade today? What grade would you give yourself?
Speaker 15 (40:33):
Ce? C minus?
Speaker 6 (40:35):
Yeah, C minus probably Seaton. Would you learn today Marvin's
not tall? No, he's not He's not short, He's just
not tall. Marvin. Would did you learn?
Speaker 20 (40:44):
Break of my stride is Todd Fritze's song whenever gets
into an arguments.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Right, Yeah, nothing's going to break my stride ever, paul
Would you learn today.
Speaker 10 (40:52):
We need a new word for not being tall?
Speaker 6 (40:55):
Todd? What did I learn today?
Speaker 15 (40:56):
Caral Lenolds thinks the Dodgers of the world through its
front run of the Metro a huge disappointment. How Rawly
deserves ALMVP.

Marvin and Paulie, we'll talk to you tomorrow.
You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
In this Tuesday, we'll talk some baseball. Harold Reynolds, Major
League Baseball Network will stop by. We spent a little
time recapping what we saw last night. Just a bad
night for football. You had the Tyreek ill Tyreek Hill injury.
He's gone for the rest of the regular season, postseason,
and perhaps part of next season as well. The Bengals
(00:25):
were held without a touchdown for the first time since
twenty twenty three. But what's more alarming is they had
fewer than one hundred and seventy five yards of offense.
In the previous nine seasons, the Bengals have had fewer
than one hundred and seventy five yards of offense two times.
They've done it three times through the first four games
(00:46):
of this season.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Woow stead of a day, stant of to day, start
outa day, stant out a day. This is the start
of the day.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Brought to you Bob Panini America, the official trading cards
for The Dan Patrick Show. Good morning. If you're watching
on Peacock, Thank you Big ten. Saturday Night Minnesota Ohio
State on NBC in Peacock, Here comes Saturday Night presented
by Discovery eight seven seven three DP show. More phone
calls coming up. We will update the poll results from
our two come up with the poll question for the
(01:22):
final hour of the program. Dane and El Paso. Hi Dane,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (01:29):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (01:29):
How are you good?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
I had a couple of comments on the passhole shirt. Okay,
I'm from El Paso, so when I wear that shirt,
they're going to take the comment is that Kinky Friedman song.
I'll keep it clean, but it's I'm just a passole
from al Paso, So I think that's what the reference is.
And when you know, when when he was, when Fritzy was,
(01:52):
I know he's great, but when he was going on
and on and on about the left lane and Rovo,
you know Rovo one. I have a theory about the
bagel shop. I think they saw him coming and that
girl has said, no, we don't have bagels, we don't
have tula, the bathrooms are broken.
Speaker 7 (02:10):
Just leave.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
Thank you. Dan.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
The passol t shirt is live on Dan patrick dot com.
Tomorrow's the last day that you can get it and
pay tribute to Todd Fritz and his driving abilities. Kelly
and Chico or no, Keith and Chico. Hi Keith, welcome back.
Speaker 8 (02:27):
Hey, good morning guys. I just had a thought and
a few questions for you. I had an idea for
the podcast. Fritzie could play some sort of makeshift driving instructor.
It's got to correct people's driving, but give his own
terrible advice and it's just comically bad through the whole way.
I also wanted to ask what the going rate is
for a Kirk Cousins or Russell Wilson right now that
(02:49):
they're kind of in some demand. What does the team
need to offer for one of those guys?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Probably almost nothing. For Russell Wilson, the Kirk d Cousins,
he still gets paid a lot of money. Somebody's going
to have to pick up part of that check. Thank
you for the phone call. Eddie and Denver. Hi Eddie,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (03:08):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Good morning and Dan.
Speaker 9 (03:10):
Second time, long time. I've got a couple more T
shirt ideas based on the Fritzy passable gate. Okay, First
would be a pictured a rearview mirror image of Green
Day's Billy Joe Armstrong and you Dan stay in Fritzy
get out of our lane.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, Todd stays in his lane. Yeah, I've been told
to stay in my lane when it comes to criticizing,
critiquing green Day.
Speaker 10 (03:36):
I went and looked really quick at Kirk Cousins contract.
If they don't trade him the Falcons, they really have
him on the roster the next two seasons at about
forty seven million dollars per season or more actually, and
the only good news is that Michael Pennox is on
a rookie deal, so their total cost of quarterback is
controlled because of that.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Dolphins hold off the Jets. Tyreek Hill dislocated me and
torn ligaments. The Broncos embarrassed the Bengals. They went it
to twenty eight to three New Pole question Seaton or
let's clean up what the hour two results were?
Speaker 6 (04:13):
Yeah, we put up there for hour two.
Speaker 11 (04:15):
Have you could pick one you'd be as tall as
you want, you can have perfect care and never lose it.
Or you could pick a weight and stay there all
right now. Weight is the thing that people are most
want to stay at about sixty eight percent. I find
that interesting because of the three options, that's the one
thing you're actually in control of, and people would rather
(04:37):
just have it.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
Done for them. Okay, I think that's interesting and pole
question for the final hour. Any let's see.
Speaker 11 (04:45):
We also have if it's not even it's not even
October yet, which NFL team has already done. That's the
Titans and the Jets are who we thought they were.
Only seventeen percent of the audience think they're better than
their record.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
The Bengals are two and two, but they don't feel
as good as a team that's winless right now. Well
they feel better than the Titans too, But I mean
the Saints were still in that game a little bit
in Buffalo. Yeah, I didn't think they were going to
be good. Cleveland's, you know, kind of toying with the
idea of going with Dylan Gabriel. Here you got another
(05:24):
game overseas. They're going to play the Viking. I don't
want Dylan Gabriel going against Brian Flora's defense.
Speaker 6 (05:30):
I'd prefer not to. Now.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
You know, when we were talking about this with Jackson
Dart and we had swagoo on, he goes, no, what
do you or yeah, did we have swago no booger
McFarlane and he said, oh, come on, you know, get.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
The kid out there, let him play it.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Because I said, well, do we wait and have him
play against the Saints on the road or at home
against the Chargers.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Well, it worked out, worked out, and that building was alive.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Scoataboo in there, Jackson Dart and you're going, all right,
I already got something to see. And that's what I
was told by somebody with the Giants. They wanted to
make sure that they weren't the fans, weren't selling their tickets.
They wanted to make sure that that was filled with
Giants fans because that's long been one of the toughest tickets,
if not the toughest ticket in New York to get
(06:21):
season tickets to the Giants. Colby in California, Hi, Colby,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (06:28):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (06:29):
How you doing good?
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (06:30):
I had a IT team request.
Speaker 13 (06:34):
I was wondering if your boys could find out how
many Penn State players were drafted by the Chargers in
the last ten fifteen years. Because I think it's safe to.
Speaker 14 (06:46):
Say that the Nitney Lyons are the Chargers of college football?
Speaker 13 (06:50):
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And Arizona basketball is the Chargers of college basketball?
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
And I have nothing against these teams. I like Jim Harbaugh.
You know, Justin Herbert, you got to call it like
you see it. I mean, there's only so much you
can do. If you're hoping for somebody to be successful,
they have to be able to prove that they can
be successful and win a game on the road Penn State.
All I care about is how do you do against
(07:25):
a big time opponent. You can tell me how many
players you've sent to the NFL, how many times you've
finished in the top ten or top fifteen. All we
care about is the bottom line with certain franchises and
certain quarterbacks. Jim Harbaugh can tell me Justin Herbert is
going to be the greatest quarterback in NFL history. And
the first thing I would say is I need to
(07:46):
see him do something in the postseason. Lamar Jackson might
be the greatest quarterback of all time. Steve Young talked
about that might end up being the greatest quarterback of
all time.
Speaker 6 (07:57):
But you know why he won't be the.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Greatest quarterback of all time is he's not going to
have any postseason awards trophies. And until he gets that,
you're not in the conversation. He could win five or
six MVPs. But you know what happens with that is
how many times you win a title like Aaron Rodgers
and maybe the most talented player ever played the position.
Speaker 6 (08:19):
How many titles won?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
All these MVPs, and there's certain players certain positions. You know,
even to Peyton Manning, he had to achieved, if you're
honest about it, with all those MVPs. He did get
the one super Bowl and then we know what happened
in the second one. He gets credit for that, But
you know, when you're having all those MVPs, I want
(08:43):
to see what you do in the postseason. By the way,
Peyton on the Manning cast said, in his entire career,
his team never did any halftime adjustments. He goes, I
went to the bathroom, I had some oranges and that
was it. Maybe he's joking because they probably needed to
(09:03):
do some adjustments, certainly when they faced New England. I'm guessing.
I'm guessing, Nope, we're going to continue to do what
we're doing. Wait, they're man handling our wide receiver.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
We're going to continue to do it. Okay, Yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 10 (09:15):
I went back and looked at Penn State. I think
one of their biggest problems is they've never had a
star quarterback player, a guy who played like a star,
like they had Sean Clifford for like seven years or
Trace McSorley.
Speaker 15 (09:26):
Those guys were good.
Speaker 10 (09:27):
The last quarterback taken in the first two rounds for
Penn State was Christian Hackenber and he started great but
tailed off. And they've never had the Cam Newton. They've
never had the Manzell, a guy who they never had
a Robert Griffin that took him to New Heights. And
they may have won this year, but it's.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
He cooled off a little.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah, but he's been around for a while right now.
I though they talked about being a first round pick,
a high first round pick, Okay, I mean I watched,
I'm waiting. I love Trace McSorley, but you know, I'm
he might have been like a one or two star recruit.
Maybe I don't know, a career backup in the NFL.
(10:09):
I mean, I liked his his gumption, his grit, but
sometimes it's nice to go, man, my guy is the
most talented guy out there.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
Not my guy's gritty and gutty.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Uh Simon in Virginia, Hi Simon, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (10:27):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (10:28):
You good?
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Hey?
Speaker 14 (10:31):
Better comparison, uh Kirk Cousins, D Joel Holdstein or Cam
Moore D Randall Cunningham.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Uh, I'm gonna I'm gonna play the long game with
Cam Moore. I'm gonna gonna play the long game with him.
Uh Parrin in South Dakota.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Hopefully I got that right.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
See did Dan? Thanks for taking the colts.
Speaker 16 (10:57):
Dan Sava the day for you. Patrick's tan has matched
up against Jamar Chase on fifty four manna man routes.
Jamar Chase has four catches for thirty five yards and
no touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Stat of the day, stat of the day, That pass
stat of the day, stat.
Speaker 12 (11:16):
Of the day here it comes that what stat of
the day?
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America,
the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Well,
that's why he was the defensive Player of the Year.
He's out there, he's locking you down.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Now.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
It does help that you got a great pass rush.
It wasn't there the first half of the game last night,
but that's the team that led the NFL in sacks.
It starts up front. If I put pressure on you
all of a sudden, you're a lot better defensive back.
But he's a great defensive player, yes, Ton.
Speaker 15 (11:51):
One thing's for certain. Chase is not putting up any
big numbers against Pat.
Speaker 12 (11:56):
It's backtalk.
Speaker 15 (11:58):
One things for certan.
Speaker 12 (12:00):
Yeh, how do you think first he's done today?
Speaker 6 (12:02):
Not well? Not well, you're quiet for twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And then with that, Yeah, yeah, I do root for you.
Speaker 6 (12:12):
I do.
Speaker 15 (12:14):
It took a while just to come up with that.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
That's just height, but I don't know why. Thank you,
We were fine without it.
Speaker 15 (12:19):
Yeah, back to the drawing board. That shouldn't be drawing
in the first place. Not very artistic.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Shuffles in Phoenix high shuffles. Welcome back, Good morning.
Speaker 13 (12:32):
So I'm driving into work. You brought up Arizona and
the Chargers again, and that's not a good analogy. Arizona
has a national championship. They should have three. The Chargers
don't have any. So I just quit throwing them under
the bus. They got a national championship, and I have
no doubt in my mind that the Arizona Wildcats are
(12:52):
going to get another one. That's just a quick thought.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
Well, okay, how long ago is that national title?
Speaker 13 (13:00):
It still occurred?
Speaker 6 (13:01):
I know, I know, ninety seven.
Speaker 13 (13:05):
It was ninety seven.
Speaker 6 (13:07):
Okay, so but they won it.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
I know, congratulations they did. But how many times have
they been a number one seed?
Speaker 6 (13:15):
Here?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Shuffles and they bow out early? Number one overall seat
bown out early. They haven't been good, they have not
been good in the postseason.
Speaker 13 (13:27):
Correct, well, there's been less than ideal.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Thank you, shuffles.
Speaker 11 (13:35):
Yes, Seaton, you go home and like your wife is, like,
you know, you never help around the house.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Would be great if you did, I help all the time.
Really win ninety seven?
Speaker 10 (13:44):
It occurred, yes to are we all still haunted by
our bracket seats?
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yes?
Speaker 15 (13:48):
X x X Arizona all the way through.
Speaker 6 (13:50):
And I say that.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I say it because I've experienced it every year I've
had the chart.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
This is the year for the chart.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
You know, I got the Chargers and then I had
Arizona Wildcats. No, I've paid a price here, public humiliation.
We want a title ninety seven? Okay, that's a dynasty, UCLA, Arizona, Duke,
(14:19):
North Carolina. What else do we Derek and Tucson, Hey Derek,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 5 (14:29):
Hey? Good morning Dan. It's actually Eric, but no, no problem. Hey,
I wanted to offer a just pate on Todd's on
the podcast.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Yeah, and it's.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
Based on the Are you familiar with the horseshoe theories
and bear with me on this No, but the horses
theory basically says that the two furthest points from the
center of the horseshoe are actually most similar. So I
suggested be Paully and Todd not once a week, maybe
once a month, because there's a cross over there where
(15:00):
so opposite sometimes they sound pretty similar. And then secondly,
I think that you have a niche podcast branch if
you will, between Shay and Todd and I don't know
what you do, you go it under, but you know
the way that Shay opens up to you, the way
that Todd opens up to you. I think you can
have a mental health podcast network based off of that brand.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
I would need mental health if I'm going to do it.
That would thank you, Derek. I'm open to Todd doing
a podcast. I don't want to be involved in it.
Speaker 15 (15:33):
That hurts my feelings a little bit.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
No, I'm with you three hours on the air a lot.
I'm with you six or seven hours.
Speaker 15 (15:40):
A day, and then at nights and weekends.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
No.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
No, but if you want to do it, and you
want that outlet and somebody wants to do it with
you here, Great, Shay is on with the Gambling podcast,
and sometimes we talk about gambling a lot of times
we talk about Shaye in his previous lives. But if
you want to do that and you think somebody's interested
in that, Todd go away.
Speaker 15 (16:04):
Well, there's got to be somebody out there that might
find something. We'll put it up remotely entertained.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
We'll put it up on the Danpatrick dot com. If
that's what you want to do.
Speaker 15 (16:13):
Mario in the back has been a big our director
has been a big fan of that. He's mentioned it
on and Dylan actually too a number of times that
the that's something we should look at. And I think
Ray even mentioned it as well.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Okay, if those guys want to sit in a very
supportive Okay, if they want to sit in then great.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
All right, yeah, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 12 (16:32):
I'm assuming I got I got to record it.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
You two, you would have to sit in there unless
you can teach somebody how to do it.
Speaker 12 (16:37):
I'll be in there.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
All Right, we're talking some baseball. Harold Reynolds, Major League
Baseball Network will join us and we'll talk to him
after this.

MLB Network Analyst, two time All Star Harold Reynolds.
Speaker 6 (17:47):
HR, how are you d P, my man?
Speaker 7 (17:50):
How you doing?
Speaker 6 (17:51):
Everything's great? Everything's great.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Look at you on the set there ready for Afternoon Baseball,
suit and tie.
Speaker 6 (17:57):
Give me the overall favorite in the playoffs.
Speaker 7 (18:01):
Well, for me, the overall favorite is the Dodgers.
Speaker 17 (18:04):
I mean you start looking at they got to August
into September, they got healthy, and they're the team to be.
The pitchings lined up, hitting, the offense, the whole, the
whole thing.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
It's all there.
Speaker 6 (18:16):
Why did they have a dip in pitching was a
real question mark for them.
Speaker 7 (18:21):
You know, they went to some injuries.
Speaker 17 (18:23):
Obviously, Glass and Now went out for a while, Snell
started to season out. Uh Sasaki didn't throw like they
thought he might. You know my mooto midst time show,
Hey start, that's it.
Speaker 7 (18:33):
It was a litany of injuries. But now they're all
lined up.
Speaker 17 (18:36):
You're looking at Snell, Glassnews not even scheduled to throw
the first round, Kershaw either and you still so you're
looking at Yamamoto, Snell, and Otani the first round.
Speaker 7 (18:48):
So we'll see.
Speaker 17 (18:49):
I think the interesting thing Dan, real quick, I throw
this in is Otani. If you look at the numbers
the day after he pitches, he's hitting like one thirty,
and so he will have he will pitch and have
a day off. And they figured out figured that out
throughout the course of the season that if we give
him a day off, after he pitches, the next day,
he's back hitting and everything takes off.
Speaker 7 (19:10):
So they're working that. You can look for that throughout
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
We had Mark prior to the Dodgers pitching coach on
a little while ago, and he said that they would
entertain the idea of using Otawanni in relief. But it's
difficult to have somebody like when do you warm up?
And if he's warming up, you want him in. You're
going to have him out.
Speaker 6 (19:30):
In the field. So I think it's a little trickier.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
But the deeper they get into the postseason, more likely
or less likely to see Otani out of the bullpen.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Well, you can see him out of the bullpen.
Speaker 17 (19:41):
It's different than when I was playing or when we
were around covering a lot of baseball because of the facilities.
You know, the Dodgers had one hundred million dollars renovation
to the clubhouse. They have all the pitching mounds and
everything under there, so guys go underneath now can actually
throw and get ready without He can do that in
between innings and be ready to go out and warm
(20:02):
up so that that could be a reason that they
could use him out of the.
Speaker 7 (20:05):
Pen, which I hadn't thought about before much.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
But can you see a scenario where somebody wins somebody
else wins the MVP than Otani given the fact that
he does have that I'm pitching and hitting.
Speaker 17 (20:18):
No, I mean, just the fact that he pitches is
a trump card. That's that's like you, Dan, you can
suep pre throws, You're gonna win, right, I mean, look.
Speaker 7 (20:27):
It's the extra thing. Every year.
Speaker 17 (20:29):
Every player knows they're going up against it. I think
you got a great argument in the American League when
you're looking at cal Rawley and Aaron Judge, and if
one of those guys pitched, it wouldn't be a conversation,
just not but.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
You got one that catches, and I think there should
be added value to that.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
There should be bonus points for cal Rawly.
Speaker 17 (20:47):
I have cal Rawly winning it if he was not
a catcher, that's not a conversation. But for a catcher
to do what he's doing, catch and hit sixty home runs.
But on top of that, what's the job of the
catcher always been make sure your pitching staff is taken
care of you're hitting is a bonus. Well, he had
a big time bonus and he's a Platinum Glove defender,
(21:09):
so I don't see the argument.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Well, Judge has gotten to that point almost like Michael Jordan,
where we're like, all right, he hit fifty, Like hitting
fifty is still a big deal to me. But and
Judge had the average. But I do find this interesting
with the analytics and the analyst they go, hey, don't
forget about Judge's batting average. I go, well, wait a minute,
the analytics told me to not think about batting average.
(21:33):
Now we think about batting average. You can't have it
both ways here.
Speaker 17 (21:37):
I have the same argument with Ryan Kenny all the
time he throws a different Oh that's a justin ballpark rate.
I'm like, every time you throw a different one at me,
it's just not the way it's supposed to be.
Speaker 7 (21:50):
So I'm on your side with that.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
How would you sum up the Mets season?
Speaker 17 (21:56):
Man biggest disappointment in the sport to be first place
in June one and to fall apart. Obviously they can
point to the pitching injuries, but I look at the
fact they didn't address it. You know, they addressed the bullpen,
but they didn't get the pitching taken care of. And
you just can't have that payroll, go out and get
a player for one hundred seven hundred and sixty five
(22:16):
million and not make the playoffs. There's twelve teams in
the big leagues in the playoffs. There's only thirty teams
in the league.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
It just can't happen.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Talking to Harold Reynolds, you can see him MLB tonight
the National pregame show they're on at noon, and throughout
the postseason and the World Series we.
Speaker 7 (22:36):
Address and normally I'd have a hoodie on like you, Daniel.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
I know, I know you'd be casual. If not the
Dodgers in the National League, then who.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
Then the Phillies. I think the Phillies are there.
Speaker 17 (22:50):
If the Phillies had Wheeler healthy, I think I.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
May lean even greater to them.
Speaker 17 (22:56):
Although the Dodgers I think are a step above everybody else.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
Will be very interesting. They'll make it competitive.
Speaker 17 (23:03):
How the brackets are set up, I don't know if
you dove into that much, but that really opens the
window for that other side, for the for those guys
to sneak in.
Speaker 7 (23:12):
Because now the Dodgers win this.
Speaker 17 (23:14):
Round, they play the Phillies, and those three are the
best two teams in the National League.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
Who's your pick in the American League?
Speaker 17 (23:22):
The American League? I got Seattle, and that's not a
homer move, you know. It's just the fact that they
got the best pitching. They're playing great ball right now,
and I think it's gonna line up pretty good for
the Mariners to win it. I think they're the best
team in the American League. If not them, then I
would say the Yankees, and most other people would pick
the Blue Jay. So you got some pretty good runners
and opportunities to make some runs.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
But I think the Mariners are the team to be.
Speaker 6 (23:44):
Do you think the Angels ever entertained trading Mike Trump.
Speaker 17 (23:49):
I don't know at this point in time, that window
might have passed. I thought they should have made that
move maybe three or four years ago.
Speaker 14 (23:58):
Now.
Speaker 17 (24:00):
I don't know if Mike's ready to move on or
if already's ready to move him. But I would still
have to look at it if I was the Angels.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Is he still a great player?
Speaker 5 (24:11):
Oh?
Speaker 17 (24:11):
Yeah, he's still a great player. I think we're seeing
him start to get healthy again. I mean, he's still
had twenty plus home runs. He played you know, half
the season really, so I think he's getting back to
where he's healthy and playing and he's still in the
right lineup, a very potent player.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
He's played in three postseason games.
Speaker 7 (24:32):
That's a shame, shame, shame.
Speaker 17 (24:35):
It's just hard to imagine, especially when I just talked
about with the format now for twelve of the thirty
teams are now to be in the playoffs and Mike
Trott's only been there three times and that was under
the old format.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, the automated balls and strikes. We had the commissioner
on and he said, all right, we're going to roll
this out just a little bit and we know how
this goes. How long until we have automated balls and
strikes full time? Oh?
Speaker 17 (25:03):
I think that's going to happen right away. They tested
in spring training last year. The players didn't have a
whole lot of pushback. I think really it'll go full
That's going to be part of the basic agreement coming up.
You know, when that agreement expires in another year, that's
going to be on the table in conversation. But I
think the players of it liked it. The one thing
(25:25):
we're saying in baseball, you saw the all new the
new rule changes, with the stolen bases and the pitch
timer and everything else. We have a generation of players
now that have grown up with all those things. Yeah,
played in the minor leagues with a pitch timer and
with the pickoff rules. They played in the minor leagues
with the new ball strikes system. That's what they've grown
(25:47):
up on. So it's not as foreign to the player
as it is maybe to the viewer.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Why is it when we talk best swings in the
game or of all time, they're always left handed hitters.
Speaker 7 (26:00):
I don't know why.
Speaker 17 (26:01):
I have a guess, because you just kind of drop
the bat and it just it's almost like a pretty
golf swing. But one thing that's happening now in this generation,
you don't hear people say what a pretty swing. You
don't hear him say, Aaron Judge has a pretty swing.
Cayle Rawley has a pretty swing. You don't hear that
anymore because we're so into ah, gotta grunt everything out
(26:23):
instead of guys with just easy, fluid swings. We don't
see that a whole lot anymore.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Ken Griffy Junior, the greatest swing in baseball history.
Speaker 17 (26:33):
If you don't say so, he'll come get He's the
greatest swing.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Who would be comparable to his swing in today's game?
It could be all time. Is there another swing that
comes close to that?
Speaker 17 (26:51):
It doesn't come to your mind that easy, that quickly.
Speaker 15 (26:55):
I don't.
Speaker 7 (26:55):
I can't think of anybody else.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Like Paul Merrow had a really good swing.
Speaker 17 (27:00):
Merril had a nice swing. Uh, there was a number
of guys. Chipper Jones was pretty good from the left side.
You started thinking about guy's swings, but nobody was as
pretty as Griffy And I think it was because he
had the hat backwards, he had an earring and he
just kind of stood there and watched it too.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
That helps to be able to do that.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
But right handed hitters like nobody says, Pooholes, what a
beautiful swing, or Mark McGuire or Paul molletor it's like.
Speaker 7 (27:24):
No, what we started doing now is we kind of
spin him around.
Speaker 17 (27:27):
You know, see, if he was left hand, it didn't
be a pretty swing.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Darryl Strawberry had a pretty swing.
Speaker 7 (27:33):
Yes he did, Yes, straw did.
Speaker 17 (27:35):
But there was a lot of guys back in the day,
you know that that had that left handed stroke that
just seemed to work.
Speaker 7 (27:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
I remember Paul Molletor had one of the quickest swings,
like through this through the zone, like it was so compact,
so quick. It wasn't a beautiful swing. I just remember
watching him. It was like, you know, Bond, nobody's quicker
through the zone than Bonds.
Speaker 7 (27:59):
No, nobody quicker than Barry.
Speaker 17 (28:01):
And even Barry, they don't say, what a pretty swing, No.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
No stride.
Speaker 17 (28:06):
He just to get that bath through the zone so quick.
I love Fernatal Tattoosa's finished.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
Okay, he puts up, he.
Speaker 17 (28:12):
Puts a little flare on it. Even sho Hail Tani
started to put some flair on it. Now you know,
he's getting Americanized a little bit. He's sitting there, he's
showing some balls. He's standing there showing people up. He's something, though. Man,
have you seen him in person.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Yeah, he's a big guy.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Oh my goodness, he's a big It's like when I
saw Yoo ming for the first time mm hmm, and
he was he was some Like you know, I thought
Shaq was big or Mark Eaton, and then you see him,
I go, oh my god, Like when I saw cam
Cam Newton is another guy I saw cam in personally
kind of lee.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
What a you're playing quarterback?
Speaker 4 (28:51):
You know.
Speaker 17 (28:52):
I was on the beach in Miami one day and
we're walking and all of a sudden, the shadow came
over Shack and.
Speaker 7 (28:59):
I was like, oh, you just keep going up.
Speaker 17 (29:02):
I never saw y'all ming, but Shack was enormous, and
then he had all the girth.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
To go with it. He was enormous. You know the diesel,
the diesel, come with the baby diesel. You know, I
do my day. Dan Patrick can shut the hell up.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Uh Okay, if you're the Pirates, do you do anything
with Schemes? If you're Schemes, do you do anything with
the Pirates?
Speaker 17 (29:24):
Well, schemes doesn't have a whole lot of leverage because
that's just kind of the contract. If I were the Pirates,
they're gonna hate me for saying this, but we said
it all summer, so I may as well say it again.
I would have pulled a hearseel Walker trade and I
would have dealt him, and I would have got back
a whole new franchise of players and turned the whole
losing thing around and started winning. I just think his
(29:44):
value is so high and if you're not gonna put
players around him and invest to put that team around him,
then you gotta trade him or else he's gonna be
a free agent. You're gonna go through the same thing
and went through with Garrett Cole. You're gonna go through
the same thing you've been It's been repeating itself. At
some point you got to flip the franchise and be
able to turn it around.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Good to talk to you, have fun today.
Speaker 7 (30:07):
I DP appreciate your brother.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Thank you, Harold Reynolds. He is an MLB network analyst.
They get started here coming up top of the hour,
it'll be uh MLB tonight the National pregame show. A
couple of phone calls in here eight seven seven three
DP show James and Charlotte. Hi James, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 7 (30:30):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (30:30):
Dan and Dannetz.
Speaker 18 (30:32):
I had a take on the Ryder Cup from over
the weekend. I was really disappointed with the fans and
the way everybody reacted and how the European team was
treated and watching the whole broadcast. The more I watched it,
the more I had the feeling. I look at Justin
(30:53):
Thomas and he's trying to calmpute play. But the more
I watched it, the more I see Bryce and the
Shambo cheering for him South and really play into the crowd.
And I think that Bryson had a lot to do
with the fan behavior.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Oh, I'm not going to pin it on him. I
think this was a two year build up, Jameh Jane.
They encouraged this, We talked about this. It was going
to be all wait till they get to Bethpage Black
and yeah that that fan grew fan base in New
York and all of that stuff. So this was not
on I'm not going to put that on the Shambo.
(31:30):
They felt like the crowd reacted to him more than
any other golfer, and they reacted against Rory McElroy. I
just don't I didn't understand that you're watching one of
the greatest golfers in history. He won the career Grand Slam,
and like I would be watching that and marveling at
(31:51):
what I'm watching, but you know, to root against him,
and then you know, I saw the guy who threw
the beer, the drink that hit his wife, and he's
celebrating it, Like, what did we have done? I know
it's a small sample size, but we're better than that,
aren't we. Nope, it's it's golf. It became more to
(32:13):
people who aren't golf fans, and you know that was
part of the problem. You had a lot of people
who weren't golf fans and didn't treat it. And yes,
is it like the phoenix open the waste, Yes, but
there's a time and a place for everything. I just
think the worst thing that happened was the Europeans dominated
(32:36):
the first two days and everybody came out to yell
and scream, but they had nothing to yell and scream
about until they did. And then you know, you add
liquor to it and not a good look, not a
good look at all. Maybe it'll be different in Ireland.
Maybe we'll be there at a dare manor bringing the
(32:57):
show over there. We're gonna we're gonna teach. We're going
to show the Irish how it's done, how we can
be polite, and you know.
Speaker 11 (33:05):
The Irish the issue in Long Island.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
No, just that group there, well, a lot of times
they are, but not in this case. But you know,
we will go over there and we'll show Ireland in
the rest of the world how Americans act right, Todd, Yeah.
Speaker 15 (33:21):
We need to have better behavior.
Speaker 6 (33:22):
Thanks. Not acceptable.
Speaker 15 (33:25):
There's a time and a place for that.
Speaker 10 (33:26):
Yeah, Paul, I'm looking this at dare manner right now.
Holy cow, yep. I mean it's like like a castle,
but close.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
It felt like a castle when I stayed in it
at a bar in the basement.
Speaker 6 (33:36):
I remember we were drinking.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
They were talking about a scotch that was one hundred
and fifty dollars a shot. And it wasn't my credit card,
it was somebody else's, a big time executive, and he
left his card there and I said, I'm sorry, and
we're gonna have to put a dent in this American Express.
Speaker 7 (33:56):
And we did.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
I think we had three thousand dollars worth his shots
on there.
Speaker 10 (34:02):
How do you say maxed out in Gaileen?
Speaker 12 (34:05):
Yes, mar So, we're going to be the ones that
represent American fans.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Yes, yes, a whole bunch of oh yes guys, Yes, yes.
Speaker 15 (34:14):
Tom, We're gonna have to mind our manner and behavior already.
Speaker 6 (34:18):
H we'll take a break glass call for phone calls.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
What we learn, we'll have Todd grade his performance today.
Speaker 6 (34:27):
We're back after this.

Red Sox and Yankees have met twenty four times in
the postseason. Each team has won twelve times. Something has
to give, there, Todd.
Speaker 15 (34:49):
Something has to give.
Speaker 6 (34:50):
Thank you. No ties, No ties in baseball.
Speaker 15 (34:54):
Ties are terrible, Thank you, Tom.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Yeah, Ross Tucker, Sir, we was.
Speaker 6 (35:01):
Venting about times.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Yeah, if you can come up with something great, I
like sudden death and then all of a sudden, Hey,
we didn't get a chance.
Speaker 6 (35:08):
You got to get a chance.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Okay, it's it's it's if you get to overtime. It
should be over in a certain amount of time, yes, Bo.
Speaker 10 (35:18):
The current overtime is ten minutes. If you added five
more minutes, does that reduce the chance of a time?
How much does that reduce the chance or.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
The number of injuries too, because that that's but that's
a big issue here that they're trying to have less plays.
Speaker 12 (35:31):
Yes, time, I kind of like what you just said there.
Speaker 15 (35:34):
Overtime should be over in a certain amount of time.
Speaker 6 (35:36):
Thank you, Todd.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
James and Nashville, Hey James.
Speaker 19 (35:42):
Hey, Hey, DP first time long time five to ten
and a half and a hard one ninety five.
Speaker 13 (35:49):
It's hard.
Speaker 19 (35:52):
I don't know if I need to get out more
or what, but I love rhyme time by uh Fritzy. Oh,
I played with my friends. So thank you, Fritzy. You've
given us an entertainment. But what I wanted to bring
up is, uh, you know, you're talking about having super
Bowls to be greatest of all time, Manning only having two.
I'm just wondering, start thinking a little skewed from basketball?
(36:15):
How you know Lebron's been there eight straight finals, Brady
has seven. You know it's the ultimate team sport with
twenty two guys on the field at one time. I'm
just curious if you know our thinking is a little skewed.
Speaker 6 (36:28):
Yes, absolutely.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
You know John Havelcheck went eight to oh in NBA finals.
Speaker 6 (36:36):
It can come up.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
We talked about Jordan, and yes, Jordan was a better
player than John Halcheck. But if you look at John
Habilchek's stats, you got.
Speaker 6 (36:46):
Some free time. Just look at his numbers.
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I think he had twenty six twenty seven thousand career points.
He didn't lose in NBA.
Speaker 6 (36:53):
Finals, stole the ball that one time. Yeah, he had
that he tipped it.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
I don't know if he stole it according to Johnny
Most but Hablchack tipped the ball.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
Doesn't sound as good as Halcheck stole the ball.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Yeah, but yes, do we put too much emphasis on it? Yes,
we do, But that's the climate. Everybody knows. When you
sign up, it's about winning championship. Barry Bonds didn't win anything.
You can't tell me how many titles Babe Ruth had, right,
how many championships?
Speaker 6 (37:29):
Babe?
Speaker 7 (37:32):
I know?
Speaker 6 (37:32):
Yogi?
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I think at eight? Does anybody bring up Yogi is
one of the great players of all time?
Speaker 12 (37:37):
Think like ten?
Speaker 6 (37:39):
He won ten? I thought he won eight.
Speaker 10 (37:43):
Yeah, Pauline, I have Babe Ruth winning seven World Series.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
But nobody knows that. It's not right off your tongue there,
Bill Russell won eleven. Okay, we pick and choose with that, Yeah, Marv.
Speaker 20 (37:56):
Yeah, I always say it about baseball. Baseball is about
the numbers. Know how many World Series Stan Usual has?
But that isn't all right, Derek Jeter, Derek Juda has
five World Serious titles.
Speaker 12 (38:06):
I do know that, Yeah, but.
Speaker 20 (38:08):
No one ever says he's the greatest shortstop of all
time because he has five World Series titles. It's different
with Kobe and Tim Duncan. They are considered the best
at their positions because of how many titles they want,
But not for Derek Jeter.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
You know, we were talking about Ted Williams last week
or the week before and missing three years of service.
He missed five years of service. He was in two
World wars. I believe he was in World War two
in the Korean War. So he missed five seasons and
he's still bat it. He still hit five hundred and
twenty one home runs if you give him thirty a year, Like,
(38:44):
imagine you miss time and it's to go be a
gunner on a planet, you know, on a fighter jet.
You know you're in here in World War two and
you're in Korean War.
Speaker 6 (38:56):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 10 (38:58):
Pulling his first year back from militaryrry service, he hit
three forty two and won the MVP. He took three
years off and got the MVP.
Speaker 15 (39:06):
Yes, did they have batting cages in the military. How
did he keep up his swing off time?
Speaker 2 (39:11):
And it's not like he was just a good will ambassador.
He's on these fighter planes. Wow, let's see this day
in sports history.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
Paul right on Cue.
Speaker 10 (39:25):
Babe Ruth hit home run number sixty nineteen twenty seven,
breaking his own record. That record stood until nineteen sixty one.
Roger Morris got it. Hank Aaron in nineteen seventy three
finished the season one home run short of Bay Ruth
seven fourteen. He broke it early in the seventy four season,
and Chris McAllister, how about this and O two of
(39:46):
the Ravens return to miss field goal one hundred and
eight yards.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
On the state nineteen eighty four, the Rams set an
NFL record three safeties, they had two to one block
punts out of the end zone, and they beat the
Giants thirty three twelve. Also on this date, twenty twelve,
this team became the second team in history to have
a three hundred yard passer, two one hundred yard rushers,
and two one hundred yard receivers in the same game.
(40:15):
Second team in history, Your New England Patriots. They beat
the Buffalo Bills fifty two to twenty eight. Let's go
around the room. What we learned on the program Tod'd
you learn anything?
Speaker 20 (40:26):
Ross Tucker reminds us it's the thrill of victory and
in agony defeat ties are terrible.
Speaker 15 (40:29):
There's nothing memorable about a time.
Speaker 6 (40:31):
What's your grade today? What grade would you give yourself?
Speaker 15 (40:33):
Ce? C minus?
Speaker 6 (40:35):
Yeah, C minus probably Seaton. Would you learn today Marvin's
not tall? No, he's not He's not short, He's just
not tall. Marvin. Would did you learn?
Speaker 20 (40:44):
Break of my stride is Todd Fritze's song whenever gets
into an arguments.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
Right, Yeah, nothing's going to break my stride ever, paul
Would you learn today.
Speaker 10 (40:52):
We need a new word for not being tall?
Speaker 6 (40:55):
Todd? What did I learn today?
Speaker 15 (40:56):
Caral Lenolds thinks the Dodgers of the world through its
front run of the Metro a huge disappointment. How Rawly
deserves ALMVP.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
