Happy early Father's Day weekend? Is that a thing?

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Father's Day weekend? I know there's Father's Day. Is it
Father's Day weekend or just Father Day? By the way,
I will say this, there's a lot to talk about
in the world of sports. We're talking about these potential
sweeps in the NBA finals as well as the Stanley
Cup Final. Trevor Lawrence becoming the highest paid player in
NFL history yesterday. Your thoughts on that contract. We have

(00:43):
Darren Ravel later on this hour to talk about the
hot dog eating contest, which looks like it is in Jeopardy,
or at least it doesn't appear as if Joey Chestnut

Love being live on Peacock. I know my mom is
watching on Peacock. Hi Mom.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
I love all the radio affiliates. There's like a zillion.

Speaker 3 (01:34):
I think it was like five hundred at this point
my Fox Sports Radio, which is amazing. And I know
because I get the posts on social media later on tonight.
For people that listen via podcast, that's a great way
to listen to. If you don't not able to listen
to it live, you can check me out if you're
ever missing me here if you ever want some hardcore
football talk, the Ross Tucker Football Podcast. We didn't even

(01:58):
get in our one into the US Open at all.
I mean, I want to take some calls, and I've
gotten some interesting items from a food standpoint from some
of our great listeners at Ross Tuck, RENFL.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
But I want to get into the US Open a
little bit. Let me ask you this what jumps out
to you about the US Open.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
PAULI Day one, Rory McElroy being up on the leader board.
He opened today, he was in second to Patrick Cantley.
He is so due, He's so popular with American golf
fans worldwide. But I think he's really ingratiate himself to
American golf fans the past two years. I think he's
the favorite if you don't have a dog in the fight.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Okay, so here's a question. Wasn't it a couple of
years ago that a lot of people didn't like Rory
And wasn't it a couple years ago that a lot
of people didn't like Bryson de Shambo And now people
like him now?

Speaker 5 (02:49):
What? Like?

Speaker 3 (02:50):
I don't follow a golf that closely, but someone needs
to explain to me how these guys go from being
not liked to popular.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Well, Deschambeau and Kopka had a little thing a few
years ago. They were always jabbing each other, but Bryson
lost some weight, cooled down. He used to be kind
of a tough guy persona, and I think he's cooled
off on that.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Kopka is my guy I love. I've always loved Kopka.
First of all. I love his attitude. I hear him
on other shows like My Guy's Pardon My Take, and
he's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
You know.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
He didn't talk to the media yesterday because he said
that their questions aren't interesting. And then I think these
names is the is the golf writer's name Amon Lynch?
Is that right, Aimon Ama Lynch? He said, well, will
you do an interview via text message? And Brookes said.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, sure.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
So there's a whole interview of Keepka after his round
via text message.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
You know, it's so funny.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
He's my favorite golfer primarily because he looks like he
served his country by playing linebacker in high school. Like
if you just look at his physique, I always assumed
he played high school linebacker in the fall and that
like golf was in the spring or whatever. So last

(04:05):
year I'm doing Rams Packers. I'm calling Rams Packers in
the booth maybe two years ago Rams Packers in the
Booths with Kevin Harland, the Great Kevin Harland, Fritzy Westwood one.
And I see on social media that Brooks Koepka is there.

(04:26):
He's there. He always wanted to go to lambeau Field,
so he's there, and I'm thinking to myself, man, I
would love to meet that.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Dude's my favorite golfer.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
So at halftime, I go to the bathroom and the
stats guy John John up in Green Bay in Wisconsin.
He goes Russ Russ Brooks. Brooks, I said, what he's like, Brooks,
I said, Oh, I was right next to him in
line for the journal and I'm and I just looked
at him. I go, hey, man, big fan. He goes, oh, thanks.
I said, I'm not a big golf guy. But you

(04:55):
look like you played linebacker in high school?

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Did you? And he said, no, Man, I was way
too much of a wussy.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
But you didn't say, Hey, when's the last time you
heard somebody say woos.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Or woosy nineteen eighty eight?

Speaker 3 (05:10):
What would you say if someone, like, if you were
out and about let's say, Paul, You're at one of
your dollars high school basketball games and like something went
on with the with the refs and some guy called
you a woos.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Probably walk away calmly, you know, I don't know that's
I think I was just die laughing.

Speaker 6 (05:27):
Yeah, that's like.

Speaker 7 (05:28):
Big, that is amazing.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
Probably I haven't heard that since the nineties. Let's go
get a beer. You just called me a wuss.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
I mean no, I don't think people use woos I
don't rely remember woosy even being a thing.

Speaker 4 (05:40):
It was more of a seventies eighties thing. It was
like a way of not swearing was saying what you
want to say. Yeah, I got the leaderboard right now,
Patrick Can'tley minus four, h Roy mcroy's got a bogie,
so he's three under. Bryson D. Chambeau's in the mix,
Tony Finow, Sergio Garcia in the mix, Xanderschoffley, Martin Kaimer,
and et cetera.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
I gotta tell you, guys, I never pay attention to
golf until Saturday afternoon at the earliest, like whoever, whoever
has the best round Thursday and Friday. To me, it's
it's like irrelevant. It almost never matters. I'm not interested.
It's such an interesting sport and that's these four day things,
and it doesn't really matter who's playing well or who's

(06:24):
in the lead till Saturday afternoon.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Some people say, what to the back nine on Sunday, Fritzy.

Speaker 8 (06:30):
Can you watch a basketball game from start to finish
when it's like eleven six or nineteen thirteen or you
need to wait till you know the second half to
appreciate it when most games are fairly close.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
You know the answer to that is if it's a
Sixers playoff game. Yes, Other than that, not so much. Although,
like in the in the NBA playoffs, I'll watch because
I want it to be close.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
I'm rooting for it to be close.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
I'm watching saying, Okay, is this gonna be a good
game that I can be in for the long haul.
I feel like we've had so many I didn't get
you just asked Mannix this. I feel like we've had
so many blowouts in the NBA play Like, how many
of these games have been close games? Does this seem
like most of these games have been double digits Marv?

Speaker 7 (07:16):
Game seven was that Nicks Pacers. I was incredibly disappointed
because I was hyped up. It was Sunday afternoon at
the Garden game seven Knicks Pacers, and it was a
blowout from the start. That's the worst. So, you know what,
when you were talking about would you have every team
being a Game seven? Not if it's a blowout either way,

(07:37):
I don't want it at all.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Well, that's one thing we were talking about earlier, is
how much you care whether or not your team gets
a win if they're down three to Oh, let's go
to Barry who's in Santa fe eight seven seven three
DP show what's up?

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Barry? Good?

Speaker 5 (07:53):
Morning fellows, Good morning check row. Three hours of Ross
is a real tree.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Oh thank you, Jack Ross.

Speaker 5 (08:01):
Being a Met and Jets fan for fifty six years,
and I'm well versed in the beat down and like
most of my brethren, we'd much rather go the Bluto route.
Nothing's over till we decide it is. Get out to deathmobile,
collect some bodies.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
What do you think, by the way, Barry Well, I
have you about Aaron Rodgers not showing up for Mini Caamp.

Speaker 5 (08:30):
Don't care, just get it done on the field. The
rest is all blah blah blah blah blah. And he
is playing everybody like a fiddle. He knows exactly what
he's doing. He knows everybody loves talking about him. He
knows it all, he sees it all, and he had
you all wrapped around his finger.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
Okay, I appreciate the Colbert. I don't really know what
that means. He's the only starting quarterback that didn't show
up for Mini camp, and Robert Sala, the head coach,
said it's an event that's very important to him. I'm
also surprised it hasn't gotten out yet where he is.
I mean, you think somebody would have seen him somewhere

(09:13):
and post it online. You can't hide anything these days.

Speaker 4 (09:17):
Paulie, Oh, you know it's been a few days since this.
But I we're civilians and we react to unexcused absence.
That was that buzzword for Robert Sala.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
That's the most interesting aspect of it too.

Speaker 9 (09:27):
Me.

Speaker 4 (09:28):
What do what do you think football players, Jets players
and other players think of the quarterback no show in
two I think they're mandatory minute camps in June. Not
it's less voluntary.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
It's a mandatory mini camp. He's the only starting quarterback
that did not attend his team's mandatory mini camp. The
problem I have is when like someone like Barry says,
I don't care, he just needs to show up for
the games, like none of this stuff matters.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Who decides what matters and what doesn't?

Speaker 3 (09:59):
In other words, like if that's and I love Barry, right,
But if that's how Barry feels, does it matter whether
or not Rogers is there for the first two weeks
of training camp?

Speaker 4 (10:07):
Did Robert Salad?

Speaker 2 (10:08):
Is it okay?

Speaker 3 (10:09):
As long as Rogers shows up fifteen minutes for kickoff
of the opening game is like nothing else like it?
In my experience, everything matters, like you would never have
told Tom Brady that something didn't matter when we were teammates.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
I mean he would.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
He treated every rep like it was absolute life or death,
and as a result, nobody wanted to let him down.
I'm fine with Rogers guys missing mini camp.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
I don't think it's that big a deal.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
But I don't want to hear that football is his
top priority because it's not.

Speaker 2 (10:47):
You can't make that argument. You can't have both ways.
I don't want to hear that he's a great leader.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
A great leader would be leading all the other players
on the team at mini camp. So whether or not
that makes a big impact on the season, I don't know,
but I guess I feel like this. There's going to
come a time this season where the Jets face some adversity,
and if Rogers has kind of given a raw rass speech,

(11:12):
there will be some people, I don't know how many,
but there will be some people who in the back
of their mind are thinking, Okay, yeah, whatever, man, whatever,
you skip mini camp, go ahead, Paulie.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Did Robert Sala say the phrase unexcused absence as a
jab or just to clarify for the media, and it
was not intended to fan the flames.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
He said, it not intended to fan the flames. He
was said in the context of Hassan Reddick unexcused absence.
We know that's a contract situation. Aaron Rodgers had an
event that was important to him. His absence is unexcused.
That is mind boggling to me by the Jets. You know,

(11:56):
if they had just said Aaron Rodgers hasn't excused absence,
nobody would have had a word about it. The fact
that it's unexcused is why everyone's so intrigued by it.

Speaker 10 (12:08):
Seaton, but he's sort of at the same time that
Robert sla is like, it's an unexcused absence. He's also
sort of saying, but it's not really a big deal,
is he he is?

Speaker 3 (12:18):
But then if it's not a big deal, why didn't
you excuse it? Why do you make an excused absence
if it's not a big deal. So the Packers had
three guys and excused absences. The Jags had like seven
guys get excused absences. The Eagles Land and Dickerson their
left guard wasn't there. He had excused absence. Like the
fact that they made it an unexcused absence. He is
your best player, he's your highest paid player, as you're

(12:41):
starting quarterback. He told you months ago that this is
an event that's really important to him, and you said, okay, yeah,
go ahead, you can go unexcused.

Speaker 8 (12:51):
Fritzy, when I hear unexcused, and maybe this is too
big a leap, but for me, that's fairly close to
unacceptable to me, Like if he was going to continue
talking about it, it's unexcused.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
He should be here.

Speaker 8 (13:00):
This is more important than whatever he chose to do.
It's unacceptable.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
It is unacceptable.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
If this were like his wife was giving birth or
you know, a family member passed away, they would have
said he has an excused absence. Whatever he's choosing to do.
The Jets aren't real happy, pretty clearly that he's choosing
to do something instead of playing football.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
This week, Yes, I did see a couple reports from
New York reporters. They didn't have the details on what
the event was or what the trip was, but they
said it's been planned for a long time and that
the higher ups with the Jets knew about this when
the training camp schedule came out or the OTA schedule
came out. So they were not shocked by this, but
that Rogers didn't change his plans when the schedule.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
And I wrote this in my column for the thirty
third team, why would you not have had the mini
camp last week? Several teams had their mini camp last week,
including the Eagles. The Jets could have rectified this by
making sure if they knew about this months ago, Like
they're saying, why would you schedule the mini camp the

(14:08):
same week he's gonna be away. He must be international
for it to be something that he couldn't like reschedule.
This must be some type of international event that he
booked and he just can't miss it, to which I
would say, I'm dying to know what.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
It is like.

Speaker 6 (14:26):
If it's a music festival, that would be amazing.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
That would be amazing.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
And then he'll go on, uh, He'll go on McAfee
show and say, listen, that's how I clear my head
before the season. I need to go to that fish show.

Speaker 4 (14:40):
To Hamburg, Germany for this festival.

Speaker 8 (14:43):
But they have some kind of Hygahuascar convention that only
happens like once or twice a year in Australia or
something that just got to be there for that.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
I you know what, maybe we can talk about this
when we come back, because I know we got the
play of the day as well.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
I still don't know a how to say that word
or be what it is.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's like legal tea that makes you hallucinate ayahuasca.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
They may know legal ta that makes you hallucin.

Speaker 8 (15:09):
I like that definition.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
I guess, I guess we'll try to find out when
we come back.

Speaker 3 (15:12):

We never have enough time to get to everything we

Speaker 11 (16:06):
To and that's why we have a brand new podcast
called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun
in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Yeah, you blubber lit me.

Speaker 9 (16:21):
Well, you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Oh my god, the play of the day left.

Speaker 6 (17:05):
I got play.

Speaker 9 (17:08):
This is the play of the day.

Speaker 6 (17:11):
Check this out, ass out of his own. Panthers on
the move. It's Barkoff's here, Rodriguez Parkoff, It's.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
A long shot, heady stars.

Speaker 4 (17:17):
Barkoff makes it four one Panthers with four twenty.

Speaker 6 (17:21):
Nine to go in the second.

Speaker 9 (17:23):
The captain streaks it alone and the Panthers lead by
a trio.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
Play of the day courtesy of five to sixty Sports
w q A m Alexander Barkoff scoring a goal for
the Panthers. He added an assist in Game three, now
has eight points in his last seven games. Barkoff leads
the Panthers with twenty one points this postseason, also the

(17:51):
club's all time leading score in the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
With fifty eight points.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Sliding in the Weekend is brought to you by our
partners Kings Hawaiian who wants you to get together with
friends and family and enjoy the weekend by making every
Sunday a slider Sunday. That was crazy in the second
period where it was like go, go goal. You don't
see that very often in hockey, where there's.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
That many goals.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
It it felt like it was three goals in like
six minutes. I gotta be honest with you, guys, and
I'm sure a lot of people feel this way. No
offense to people in South Florida. I really wanted Edmonton
and the whole country of Canada to win this Stanley
Cup Finals so bad.

Speaker 4 (18:36):
It's been so long since Canada's won one any Canadian teams.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
I'm gonna ask Steve Levy, why is that the case.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
Obviously there's plenty of Canadian guys on the Panthers, and
there's plenty of guys that aren't Canadian on the Oilers.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Like, we get that, but it just seems random to me.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
Now, there was a stretch there where they didn't have
as many teams, but there's still a bunch of Canadian teams.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
It's unbelievable that they've been on this stretch.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
It just would mean so much more to the people
of Edmonton than it will to the people of Florida, Paul.

Speaker 4 (19:11):
For us to understand this. Would this be like if
the NFL merged with the CFL Canadian Football League and
all of a sudden, a bunch of our teams moved
up there and they dominated the sport. That's what it
would be akin to, right that.

Speaker 3 (19:23):
I mean similar, But you know a lot of the
NHL teams were like, what do they call the original six? Yeah,
like you know, Boston and New York they've been in
the NHL for as long as the Canadian teams have.
But yes, the point is is, I you know, I
had several college buddies that were on the hockey team

(19:43):
from Canada.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
It was hilarious.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
You know, we would be eating in the dining hall, okay,
and we're going to Princeton, which is, you know, one
of the top schools in the country and you can
get a good job after college and you can make
a lot of money and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
And these guys.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
From Canada they'd be like, Hey, I hear the East
Coast League is paying two hundred bucks a week.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
Now, Oh that's awesome, we should definitely do.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
I'm like, you guys are gonna go to the East
Coast Hockey League and play in like Tier three cities
for five hundred bucks a week when you could get
like an investment banking job for one hundred grand. It
would I love hockey guys. They are the greatest dudes
in the world. I'll never forget too. One night, there
was a there was a guy. You know, he's like

(20:29):
a pretty like fit, normal person, you know, like he
looks like he was an athlete, but he was not
an athlete.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
He was not a hockey player.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
And he was about to get in a fight with
this guy, Ben Mooi Morin, who was from Quebec, the
French state, speaking Canadian, and he was on the hockey team.
And there was like eight hockey guys around and they're
like talking trash and I get in there. I'm like,
let me talk to him. I'm not gonna say the
name of the guy. I think I remember his name.
I'm not gonna say the name of the guy. I said, listen, man,

(21:00):
you gotta you gotta apologize and say you were wrong.
He's like, he's like, I can't. I can't do that. Now,
I'll look like a bus I can't do that now,
I said. I said, no, like you can, and you're
and you're gonna because first of all, that guy had
over fifty fights in junior hockey. Okay, you've never punched

(21:21):
somebody in the face in your whole life. Secondly, even
if somehow you got a lucky punch on him. You
see those other six guys. There's nobody more loyal other
than maybe the wrestlers. There's nobody more loyal than the
hockey guys. You're dead, dude, You're you're dead either way.
You're like and he's like, I can't do it. I'm like, no, no,

(21:44):
you're gonna do it. And he's like, oh, that's my bad. Guys,
I don't know what happened there. I apologize and the
hockey guy's like, okay, cool.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Look then you know it.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
He just had to apologize. They were like, okay, cool.
The next day, I'm walking to class and I see
this guy. It was like a Thursday night party. I
see that. He goes, thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
Man. I'm like, dude, no problem.

Speaker 3 (22:05):
I did not want to see like a professional fighter
annihilate you on a.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Thursday night in college like that.

Speaker 3 (22:14):
That's little piece of advice for people out there. Don't
fight a fighter. Uh, don't fight a wrestler. You will
lose badly, no matter how tough you think you are.
Do not fight people that actually fight. Do not wrestle.
Do not fight people that actually wrestle.

Speaker 10 (22:32):
Seaton I was once on a subway in New York
City with my wife and son, who was about four
years old at the time, and uh, this dude got
on the subway and sat down next to us, or
like across the way from us.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (22:44):
Uh. And he was cool looking.

Speaker 10 (22:46):
He had done like these crazy sunglasses and all this stuff,
and his ears were all puffed out. He was like
a dude who made an impression. But his ears were
all flower yea, yeah, colie flower.

Speaker 3 (22:55):
You don't ever ever get in a fight with a
guy with the califlowers.

Speaker 10 (22:58):
So I said to my son, it's about four. I
was like, hey, buddy, you see that dude right there.
You see his yours. Don't ever fight a guy like that.

Speaker 12 (23:05):
Okay, whatever, And my wife is like, Patrick, he's four,
but that's wrong. Never, never too early, I said, babe,
it's never too early to learn this.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
I was second, who's Patrick?

Speaker 6 (23:17):
Oh see that's my real name.

Speaker 5 (23:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (23:19):
I sometimes I forget that. Sometimes I forget I'm seating that.
So yes, So like, it's never too early to learn
don't fight a guy with colliflower. It's like, you make
that guy your friends, you don't fight him.

Speaker 13 (23:30):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (23:31):
With Father's Day coming up? Is that a dad thing?

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Because I am constantly telling my daughter's lessons and they're
constantly making fun of me. There there's another life lesson
that I'm like, well, I don't know if it's gonna
come up again, that you need to make sure when
you're driving a golf cart that the lights are on. Like,
I don't know when that's gonna come up again. So
this is the perfect opportunity.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Paulie, I'm in the same boat.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
I have two daughters and I'm always giving them advice
and I'm getting the you know, the old eye rolls.
I think they hear it, and I think they're gonna
use it. They're not going to thank you in the moment.
They're going to thank you when they're twenty two, right,
And You're like, damn, remember when you told me blah
blah blah blah blah. You're right, but you're never gonna
get credit in the moment. But I say, you keep going.

Speaker 7 (24:11):
Marv, what were you gonna say the same exact thing
that Sean said. I told my son. I was like,
there's somebody with cauliflower ear. Don't you ever fight them?
And also, so downtown Hart for a long long time ago.
Two guys are about to get into a fight, and
this one guy told the other guy, you don't want
to fight me. Not I don't want to fight you.
You don't want to fight me. You know crazy, that sounds.

(24:35):
It'd be like me and you we're about to go
at it, and I say, oh, I don't want to
fight you. That's different than Ross. You don't want to
fight me. And they were like, And the other guys
were like that were around that knew him. They were like, yes,
you don't want to fight him. His resume is impeccable.
And I was like, oh, never mind, yes, yes, you
know crazy that sounds to say, you don't want to

(24:56):
fight me. Uh, speaking of fighting. By the way, Connor McGregor,
why did he pull out?

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Do we know?

Speaker 4 (25:02):
Yeah, it appears that it's UFC three h three. You know,
obviously he's one of the big draws. He's supposed to
fight Michael Chandler June twenty ninth in Vegas. He's twenty
two and six in his career, McGregor he's never missed
a fight or pulled out a fight due to injury.
It's the first time his career he's pulled out of
a fight. No details on the reason of the injury.
It doesn't say if it was training related or personally related,

(25:22):
but they had to fill the card, if you know
what I mean.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
So that, by the way, those are the things that
have changed the most since I think we were younger.
Like when I was in high school, Okay, I was
pretty confident in any type of physical altercation against anyone.
Now that I'm older, Like, you never know first of all,
if the guy has like a gun or a knife

(25:46):
or something like that. But secondly, you don't know if
this guy has been doing six years of ultimate fight
training and can just you know what I mean, Like
like nowadays, like if I was about to get in
a fight with like, I'd be like, well, I was like,
before we do this, have you been training for ultimate
fighting once? You Like, I'm pretty confident I can beat

(26:10):
you up if you're just a normal dude.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
But like, do you know karate or something? Or do
you are you an ultimate fighter?

Speaker 6 (26:15):
You're way too confident for a little guy. What's going
on here?

Speaker 8 (26:18):
Going on?

Speaker 2 (26:19):
I need There's something I'm missing here? Why why are
you willing to do this?

Speaker 5 (26:22):
Polly?

Speaker 4 (26:22):
So I got a little more on McGregor. First of all,
were you guys surprised to hear that he's fighting by
you know, tapping out of the fight. He's thirty five
years old. The last time he was in competition was
against Poorer in twenty twenty one, almost three years ago.
He's one in three in his last four fights. I
thought he was kind of not a fighter anymore, almost
like emeritus. He's like the one of the faces of

(26:44):
the host. Yeah, yeah, like he should be the color
commentator on the fight. He's he's almost beyond fights.

Speaker 3 (26:49):
So I have mixed emotions with guys like that, because,
on the one hand, it kind of makes me sad
that financially, I'm assuming he feels like he still needs
to do further damage to his body to get that compensation.

(27:11):
The flip side of that, though, is I miss the
violence of football every day. I miss football every day.
I work out like twice a day. You know, I
get to call games for CBS and Westwood One, which
is great. It's not the same. I would say, like
I'll be driving maybe even once on the drive home.

(27:34):
I probably shouldn't admit this, but like on the drive
down to the Jersey Shore after this Okay, there might
come a time where I will daydream about, like being
at a bar and someone like pushing my wife, not
really hard, but like hard enough that I'm allowed to
smash her head to a wall because I'm I'm defending her.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
So you're saying, is that normal? Do you guys ever
do that?

Speaker 3 (27:58):
You guys ever daydream about having an opportunity to legally
mess somebody else up?

Speaker 7 (28:05):
Yes, okay, that's normal somebody specific in my case.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Yes, okay, all right, good. But you're the guy who
that was normal enough.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
You're a guy who was violent for a living and
it got cut off at age what thirty two twenty eight?
You style seven years? Well, you have a lot of it.
She was kind of fun. It's a bit of fun.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
You know what.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
I remember In tenth grade, Brian Thomas was like one
of our big senior linemen. He knocked me on my
butt bad, I mean bad tenth grade. I was six
foot one seventy. I just started dying laughing. I thought
it was hilarious, Like even when I got knocked over,
I thought I thought it was funny. I mean, I

(28:49):
loved every aspect of it. Did any of you, any
of you four ever play tackle football.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
Yeah, like eighth grade, freshman year, like grade school.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Did you love it or no? I was terrible.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
I was too skinny, I got pushed around. I would
have loved it if I had any size and the ability.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
Marv, I served my country. Nice.

Speaker 7 (29:08):
You played through high school from Pop Wonder through high school.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
I love it. I love it. I served my.

Speaker 6 (29:15):
Hey, you look at me. No, of course not no.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
No, I thought you guys say something about Marv.

Speaker 6 (29:19):
No, no, no, I just say thank you for your service.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
You guys know where the server server country line for
high school football comes from.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Al Bundy Marry with Children legend scored four touchdowns in
the game.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
Ed O'Neil, who, by the way, really was like got
an NFL training camp.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
Ed O'Neil was like a legitimate Yeah, he was on
the show. I remember you guys had him. Yeah, but
the military showed up at his door on one Married
with Children episode and he's like.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
What are you guys doing here? I already served my country.
I played high school football. It's just by the way programming.
Note that was the only show I remember that. My
parents said, my sister and I couldn't watch. They felt
like the content was inappropriate.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Guess what? Guess what?

Speaker 3 (30:07):
Was the only show my sister and I wanted to
make sure we watched Married with Children. That is such
a lesson there if you say to your kids, that's
when you can't watch anytime they weren't home. That's what
we're watching. Married with Children. Absolutely love that show.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
All right.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
We got Darren Mavel coming up. There's a lot to
talk to him about because I want to talk to
him about what's the latest with collectibles as well. But
we've been talking a lot about some of these food
items that people would eat Brian Garcia on Twitters as
ice cream, sandwiches or French fries. How about Jeremiah Lutz hamloaf?

(30:45):
Do you guys even know what ham loaf is? Oh?
I love it, Deeremiah. I'm a Pennsylvanian. I know ham loaf.
People eviscerated me. That's like second a third time I
used that word. I gotta come up with something different. Anyway,
it is a good word. It sounds like it's like
what you're doing, you're eviscerating it.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Anyway, I love some hamloaf.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
Thirty eight minutes past the hour, Dan Revel giving us
the update on the All Important Hot Dog Eating Contest
and this one on one Joey Chestnut Kobyashi Netflix special
thirty eight minutes past the hour here on The Dan
Patrick Show.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAPP.

Speaker 14 (31:31):
About fifteen minutes left here in hour number two on
a Meet Friday, Ross Tucker aka Meathead James.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
Evanderbeek filling in for Dan, who's also a father, and I.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Have any big plans for Father's Day?

Speaker 3 (31:48):
Well, we joined by Darren Revel momentarily, by the way,
but anything exciting for Father's Day?

Speaker 4 (31:54):
Shouldn't you be asking someone else that question? What plans
to be being made for us?

Speaker 2 (32:00):
Well, so that's an interesting question.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Then does your significant other or do your kids not
ask you what you would like to.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Do for Father's Day?

Speaker 3 (32:09):
By the way, on a scale of one to ten
of importance, I feel like Mother's Day in society is
like a nine and Father's.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
Days like a two negative two.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
You mean, why does nobody care about Father's Day at all?

Speaker 2 (32:27):
To people? Do you got? Will you guys all get
a Father's Day? Gift from your kids or your wife.

Speaker 4 (32:32):
A Halph hazard gift. Yeah, Halp hazard like it was
made that morning, or I mean made purchased or made
that morning. My one one daughter gave me a belt
that I already owned once a couple of years ago.
She rewrapped it.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
That is amazing. What about you, Marv.

Speaker 7 (32:52):
My wife usually asked me what I want to do,
and we just go out somewhere nice and that's it.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
Not too much. I don't want anything se same thing.

Speaker 8 (33:02):
She asked me the other day if I want to
do anything special for Father's Day, and I said, nah,
it shouldn't be for me to have to book my
Father's Day gathering.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
Well, I just said to my wife, I would love
to have my father in law and brother in law
over with the kids and hang out by the pool grills.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
That sounds nice, like, I don't know, Seaton.

Speaker 10 (33:21):
Yeah, it's usually like dinner or something. You know, I
don't know, you feel like going off for dinner? You
want to stay in?

Speaker 6 (33:25):
What do you want to do?

Speaker 2 (33:27):
What if you said to your wife, you know what
I'd really like.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
I just want to be by myself and have a
spa day, just just to get away from it. Can
you should handle the kids so I can do a
spa day.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
No, no father has ever said that. That's what moms
say for Mother's Day.

Speaker 10 (33:42):
But no father, Go get a massage and a facial
get the manny patty going.

Speaker 6 (33:46):
I'll see it's about six.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
Thirty dinner one for Father's Day.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
Let's get to my guy, Darren Ravel, because I didn't
even know that. I've seen him posting about it a
little bit, but I didn't know that Darren was like
the world's foremost expert on the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
I know you can and should follow him on social
media at Darren Revel two million followers, two million. That
is crazy.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Darren was way ahead of the game from a social
media perspective. He's also the founder of collect Media. Before
I even get into Darren the hot Dog eating Contest?
What's collect Media?

Speaker 13 (34:27):
Hey, Ross, how are you let me just tell you?
On Father's Day, I dreamed to say I'm playing golf,
but actually just sit in the car with air conditioning
for five hours. That's that's that's one of my ideas.
And for Father's Day, I told them that I tell
them I'm aggressive. I said we're buying a hibachi grill.
I'm getting a five Miyazaki wagu and that and I'm

(34:49):
cooking it. And that's what's happening. So that's my Father's day.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
Nice.

Speaker 13 (34:54):
And you know when the wife notices if she does
a drain of two hundred and seventy five dollars for
the wagu steak, but that's you know, Hey, we're going
to go great this Father's Day.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
I like it.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
I like a man that I like a man that
knows what he wants. Tell me about collect media quick.

Speaker 13 (35:09):
So so so you know, obviously did the sports business
thing for twenty years and did gambling for five and
I had always been a collector and the journalism had
never really gotten to collecting. It's a multi multi billion
dollar business, and so there's not really a site for collectors,

(35:30):
whether they're novice or sophisticated, to come. And you know,
during COVID, if I had one more person say should
I grade my cards?

Speaker 2 (35:38):
What do I have?

Speaker 6 (35:39):
Is it junk?

Speaker 2 (35:40):
Is it? You know?

Speaker 13 (35:41):
Literally the number of questions every day and so hey,
how about we have a site where we have an
FAQ where we can tell people what they're doing, you know,
it's it's been amazing. So it's been two months we've
been doing this and broke a bunch of stories and
having a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
That's awesome.

Speaker 3 (35:57):
I've got a couple buddies back in cent that their
whole house is sports memorability and they are into it.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
I mean they are. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
They came over to my house, Darren, and all I
had up was like my my jerseys from the teams
I played for, and they were like, well, where's your
other stuff? Like, you know, you played with Brady, where's
your I'm like, I didn't ask Tom Brady for anything asked.
I didn't say like, hey, Emmett, can I have your jersey?
Although Emmett that was actually his Christmas give to us.
He gave us a signed jersey that year back in

(36:26):
two thousand and two. All right, so give me an
update on the hot dog geating contest. Paulie tells me
you're like the world's foremost expert on this thing over
the years.

Speaker 13 (36:36):
Yeah, so this, you know, and I'm giving credit, thank God,
in the in the book Horsemen of the Esophagus, which
is a great book if you haven't read it. But yeah, no,
in two thousand and two, I was at ESPN and
we had this thing on most sent stories that you
could look at. This is before they were like heat maps.
And the second most sent story in two thousand and

(36:56):
two on ESPN dot com wasn't like the first was
deer force his man to flee Office, which is on
the outdoors page. Literally, that was the number one most
sent story at ESBIA dot com to that too, and
number two is Kobayashi. And I was like, wait, this
thing happens in Coney Island and we're not doing anything,
And ultimately convinced ESPN to televise it and was the

(37:16):
initial stove side reporter or whatever you want to call it,
and got to know all these guys and yeah, so
this one's a real interesting one. I had heard rumblings
about a week ago that Joey Chestnut was not going
to be back. I had not heard that he is
signed with Impossible Foods to endorse a plant frank, But

(37:39):
that's kind of how it came out that they You know,
you could you could obviously understand that Nathan's the sponsor
of the Hotsog getting contest, doesn't want the plant competitor
on Joey Chestnut so whether he canceled them or they
canceled him. You know, it came out that he was
not going to be in the hot dog eating contests, which,

(38:01):
by the way, the fact that the hotog Eating Contest
can still own the world as it did, right despite
the fact that they pretty much had two champions over
twenty five years. This isn't like Jimmy Johnson winning like
five Nascars. This is two champions over twenty five years.
This is the worst parody of any sport. And yet

(38:23):
they can grab the relevance that they do that Joey
Chestnut's not going to be there, so then everyone's like, oh,
this is a stunt, and like, it's not a stunt.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Believe me.

Speaker 13 (38:34):
The people at Major League Eating that are putting on
the Nathan's hotzoggeting times.

Speaker 6 (38:38):
Is they're devastated.

Speaker 13 (38:39):
They're devastated they're not gonna have Joey Chestnuts. But then
the next day it comes out that there's also a
deal for Netflix with Joey versus Kobayashi for the first
time since what two thousand and four or five.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
So yeah, I mean that sounds a little bit too
much of a coincidence there to walk me through the timing.

Speaker 13 (39:00):
Darren Well, I think Joey had already looked at the
Netflix deal. Hey we're gonna own Labor Day instead of
own the fourth of July. And then I think probably
the Impossible Foods deal just slam the whole thing home,
because you know, Major League Eating's paying this guy like
two hundred and fifty thousand just to be in the

(39:21):
hot dog eating contest. You know, that's a that's a
strong ten minutes, you know. But so I think the
deal just became too good once he could get another
endorsement deal with Impossible. Now we've had a lot of questions.
Do people who are gonna eat a plant hot dog

(39:41):
would they eat a real one? Are they really competitors?
That is a big question, Ross, Like, so I put
that out on Twitter, you know, are they really competitors?
And twenty seven percent of people said that if they
are hot dog eaters, they would consider a plant hot dog.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
That's That's well.

Speaker 3 (40:02):
My question was going to be, like, in terms of
a contest, I would think you could probably eat more
plant based hot dogs or does it make no difference?

Speaker 13 (40:13):
Remember, I think you're I think you're really miscalculating here. Uh,
plant based hot dogs have a lot more sodium. The
sodium factor of when you're I mean, Joey's eyes are
like bulging out red and I think sodium is the
single biggest issue when you're doing this contest. So I

(40:34):
don't know about that.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
What does what does he make a year? You think
Joey Chestnut.

Speaker 13 (40:40):
Probably about with everything, probably a half a million dollars
a year.

Speaker 3 (40:45):
Okay, and now maybe he'll go viral now with the
you do something on Netflix, man, that's international. I mean,
you have a chance to go big when.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
You do that.

Speaker 13 (40:54):
No, and it's Netflix Live, which they're trying to you know,
obviously put a lot of focus on. So it's very interesting.

Speaker 2 (41:03):
Did you do us a favorite? Darren, stay on top
of this story. Very important.

Speaker 13 (41:07):
You know, you don't have to ask me. I'm on
top of this. You know I will if somehow Joey
Chestnut's competing. I am putting pressure on myself to break
that story.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Check him out on social media at Darren Ravel and
of course collect media.

Speaker 2 (41:24):
Very cool, Thank you, Darren.

Speaker 13 (41:25):
Thanks Ross.

Speaker 3 (41:26):
All Right, are any of you guys, I mean, obviously
Dan's a huge collector.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
Any of you guys, big collectors.

Speaker 4 (41:33):
Little bity old stuff like USFL stuff.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Oh that's cool, yeah, a little bit.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
I can see that USFL stuff. I think the more
I guess this is obvious, but the more unique probably
the better.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
All Right, here's what we got in the final hour.
Steve Levy from ESPN and about twenty man.

Speaker 3 (41:51):
It's gonna give us the update on hockey and how
we should feel about the Stanley Cup finals, plus your
calls next
