The Hall of Fame game is a far cry from regular season football, and the new kickoff is a little weird, but Dan refuses to feel anything but joy over the return of the NFL. And he takes a look at all the relevant story lines as we are only about a month away from the start of the regular season.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's a Friday our one and meet Friday at that.
I don't know what we got cooking on the triggers.
I'm just told a bunch of wings. And we got
the official grill master, the Buffalo Bills, Jack Mancuso, who
sent in the recipe. He's known as the CEO of
Steak and Tyler will have that whipping up a batch

(00:26):
of wings.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
We got a lot of them.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
There of a large variety of Buffalo wings on the
trigger today.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Who has it better than we do?

Speaker 4 (00:35):
Body?

Speaker 3 (00:35):
All right?

Speaker 2 (00:36):
A lot of topics to dive into, some own biles.
This is the where you go out. Individual gold, team gold,
AH twenty seven. Not much left to put on the resume.
Same with Katie Ledecki thirteenth medal, that's most all time.
As well, we had football, at least a reasonable fact
similar last night the Bears beat the Texans, and of

(00:56):
course we got to see the new kickoff. They made
a mistake I calling it the new dynamic kickoff. Nothing
dynamic about it last night. But here is the opening
kickoff for the Bears and Texans.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Santos.

Speaker 5 (01:11):
A couple of quick steps into the ball and a
line shot Sims receives at the five. There goes everybody
fifteen to the twenty across the twenty five and what
does it mean?

Speaker 3 (01:20):
One yard more than.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
We would have gotten, but one yard where you hold
your breath because it looked like there was a seam
and once that guy hits the seam, there's not a
lot there.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
To stop the runner.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
That's courtesy of Serious XM NFL Radio. All right, at
least there wasn't a touchback. I don't know if that's
a great consolation prize, but it is for me because
normally we get to the kickoff and you go, all right,
time to go get a beer. Used to be on
the extra point. Well, now the extra point is very interesting.
The kickoff is at least interesting, and nobody's going to

(01:52):
show their hand. They're not going to tell you their strategy,
certainly of the preseason. But I get the feeling there'll
be some creative minds when it comes to this eight seven,
seven to three DP Show email address Dpatdanpatrick dot com,
Twitter handlely DP Show. Good morning, if you're watching on Peacock,
thank you for downloading the app and our radio affiliates
around the country. Will check in with the great Paul

(02:15):
finebaumb Man. He's been on fire here. Got a new
contract here that'll help. So he's been taking dead aim
at Lincoln. Riley thinks Dion Sanders should be USC's next
head coach. He's always got something to say about Alabama.
So we'll talk to Paul Finebaum a little bit later on.
We'll check in with the Chargers, who might have a

(02:36):
little bit of an issue with Justin Herbert. We'll talk
about that injury and one of the dan Nets has
suffered that very same injury. Stat of the Day has
always brought to you by Penaani America, the official trading
cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Looking forward to sliding
into the weekend, brought to you by our partners at
Kings Hawaiian. They want you to get together with family

(02:57):
and friends and enjoy the weekend by making every Sunday
a Slider, Sunday Play of the Day, poll question stat
of the Day. All of that forthcoming track and field
gets started later on today we had the gymnastics, We
had more swimming as well. Hall of Fame game. Weather
ended it and august In Canton can be brutal, the

(03:20):
heat and humidity and then rain inevitable. I went up
there the one year had to stop the game because
of lightning. But that is a rough, rough weekend. To
sit through those Hall of Fame speeches, it's a wonderful moment,
but after a while you realize, is that guy gonna
shut up?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Are we going to go through everybody who coached you?

Speaker 2 (03:44):
And then they finally said, we got to cut these
things down a little bit here. Now it's like an
Academy Awards speech. We're gonna have to, you know, have
a light that comes on or music that comes on,
or they should just have somebody come on and say, no,
let's go, let's go off stage here, let's you know,
kind of speed this up a little bit here. That's

(04:06):
why I always thought that you should be able to
record something and allow people to go and watch it
listen to it, but your speech should be a lot shorter.
It should be kind of a clip notes version of it,
and even your presenter. Sometimes they would have presenters that
would go on as long as the speech itself, and
they were pre taped, and then after a while they're like,

(04:29):
we got to have a time limit here on this.
We don't want a Hall of Famer to die before
he gives his speech up there. Speaking of which, I
did watch the next episode of Pete Rose and the documentary.
Once again, I haven't learned anything, and I speak from
experience with this, but I've been watching just to see

(04:49):
if there's a you know, I'm not gonna say smoking gun.
The only thing I care about now with Pete is
did he bet on baseball when he was playing baseball?

Speaker 3 (05:00):
I think he did. Yes.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
I don't think all of a sudden, you go, now
I'm going to bet because I'm a manager. Well he
was a player manager as well. But do I think
Pete bet on baseball?

Speaker 3 (05:10):
I do.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
I don't think all of a sudden he decided, now
I'm going to bet on baseball. And even in the
documentary he says, oh, I'm not betting anymore. Like he
finally realized in his eighties that you can't win. See,
that's the problem. It's a disease, it's a sickness. And
Pete thought, just like everything Pete did, he can eventually

(05:33):
beat it. He's a winner, He's going to win at betting.
And he realized that he can't. And here he is
in his eighties and he's talking about betting on the
Super Bowl. He was betting on the Eagles to beat
the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. But do
I think he bet I do. Do I think there'll
be more information posthumously about Pete Rose?

Speaker 3 (05:54):
Yes? I do.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Do I think he's getting into the Hall of Fame.
I don't, But watching it once again, I hate when
Pete plays the martyr, and it is pretty evident in
there that he's playing the martyr once again. Poll question
today seton what are you thinking about the new kickoff?
Is way better?

Speaker 3 (06:13):
Better? But hochy or worse?

Speaker 2 (06:17):
It has to be better because you know there was
no kickoff. It was basically put it in the end
zone and bring it out. It's a hokey look that
I think we can agree on that it gets weird.
It's like these guys are standing there. I'm standing right
next to you, and you know, whatever ten yards away

(06:39):
go and then I'm wondering what kind of ingenuity is
going to happen here where all of a sudden, somebody's
going to go. I think we've figured this out. Now,
can I bring offensive linemen back to where the kick
returner is I know I can't set up a wedge,
and I don't know what the official language says, PAULI,
but does it? And it seemed like, how about I

(07:01):
get a couple of athletic blockers guards, and then maybe
they can be sort of a wedge without it being
a wedge a battering ram. And now I got a
couple of blockers in front of me, all you have
to do is get through that, you know, that first
line of defense, and then you're gone, yeah, PAULI.

Speaker 5 (07:19):
Looking at the rules, you have to have two returners
spread out in that return zone kind of back by
the five yard line. Then on the thirty five yard
line you need the rest of your team, and the
team has to be spread out. You need two guys
outside the numbers, you know, like the thirty year five
yard line, number two inside and then two inside the hashmarks.
So that's to prevent a wedge to be set up

(07:41):
in advance. Now, what you're saying is there's no rules
on what players can be on the kickoff return or
kickoff covers team. So you could put four backup offensive
linemen in the middle, okay, or a backup offensive lineman
as the second return person that joins the actual kick
returner as you know, like a escort.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
There's going to be modifications to this. It feels like
this isn't a finished product. But at least we have movement,
and that's all I was asking for. But you had
eight kickoffs in seven were returned. I'll take it because
the alternative is what nothing. They're not going to go
back to what they had before. They have to have

(08:22):
movement there. You still have to have the kickoff. Yes,
we have modifications to on side kicks as well. Have
to be trailing fourth quarter and you'll have to announce
that you're going to have an on side kick. Okay,
maybe I don't know what the the you know, the
percent of success is going to be, but it'll be
probably below like three percent for these on side kicks.

(08:45):
But you got movement on the kickoff. I'm fine with that.
We just started. I don't know if I can complain
about anything. We had football last night, and granted you're going, well,
you had backup quarterbacks. I don't care. Brett Rippin, I
don't care. I'm fine with that. He threw fo one
hundred and sixty six three touchdowns. Hall of Fame game.
They should put him in the Hall of Fame this

(09:06):
weekend after that performance. I'm good with that. I think
he's thrown a total three touchdown passes in twelve previous
preseason games, so he is one of those. He's a
great preseason quarterback case Keenum, he's a winner. He played
last night. Davis Mills in there as well. I'm okay,

(09:27):
I'm not going to be complaining today. I'm not going
to be a buzzkill.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (09:31):
See, it feels like you put you put a football
play back where one had been taken out.

Speaker 3 (09:36):
Sure, I have no problem with that whatsoever.

Speaker 6 (09:39):
It feels like the cool thing at first was to
be like what is this, like this sort of like
crap on it.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
But it's like, I don't know, it's not that crazy,
it's not that different.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
It can be wonky, but still it can be Okay,
it's a real football play. Yeah, instead of just kicking
the ball off, dude puts his arms out there, and
I'm not gonna take it.

Speaker 7 (09:57):
What stupid.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
I'm okay with that.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Like it's good, you know, as PAULI likes to point out,
it's like getting a car for your sixteenth birthday. It's
not a good car, but it is a car for
your sixteenth car. Yes, what's the difference I get to walk,
ride a bike or I get a car.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
I'll take the car, even if it's a hornet or
a Gremlin.

Speaker 8 (10:21):
Yes, don I'm glad there's gonna be more kick returns.

Speaker 9 (10:23):
But was there a party while they were trying to
explain it with the graphics and animation where it became
even more confusing? And what does that say about the
gimmicky nature of it even though we're getting returns back.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Well, when Joe buck is trying to explain it to
start the broadcast, I knew less. When Joe was done,
I thought that they didn't give him enough time to
really set this up to say this is what it is.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
There was a graphics package.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
There, I mean, somebody spent a lot of time on it.
It was just it was too much to try to
fit in there, squeeze in there. That should have been
something that was given probably three mines four minutes to
be able to discuss because it is important now, this
is this is one. I think Joe even said this
is the biggest rule change that the NFL has ever had.

(11:11):
And I'm paraphrasing, but I mean it is we have
changed the game. Now we have movement on the kickoff
whereas before we did not, and the strategies that are
going to be there or if the ball goes in
the end zone are now out to the thirty. Like
now now we have a football play. It might not
be the prototypical Oh I understand that. I think by

(11:33):
you know, week two or three, then we'll kind of
understand everything and then we're going to see some nuance
there and some strategy there, and that'll be fun.

Speaker 6 (11:43):
Yeah, seed is football the only game where understanding the
game itself is constantly in flux. It's going to take
us a couple of weeks to get used to these
new rules, and then we can get back to be
confused about the old rules where we debate if something
was a catch, if this was all that, if this
was or wasn't that.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (12:02):
It feels like football is the only game that you're
just constantly wait.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
Is that the rule or seat?

Speaker 2 (12:08):
And I'm still trying to figure out the catch And
that feels like, you know what, when you bring in
more lawyers.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
And fumble out of the back of the end zone,
and then.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Yes, they kept adding to the rule instead of saying,
let's subtract from the rule.

Speaker 3 (12:21):
Let's make it really simple.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
A catch inbounds, whether you lose it out of bounds,
the ground can't cause the fumble.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
Yes it can.

Speaker 6 (12:31):
Like the ten commandments are pretty simple. There's no you know,
Commandment three CBA, dash two, five, nine giving the different
Were there more than ten and did they pare it
down to ten?

Speaker 10 (12:48):
That?

Speaker 3 (12:48):
Yeah, like a Commandment four section B.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
It feels like there were more than ten commandments. I mean,
I'm thinking maybe there were probably fifteen to twenty. And
then Moses said I can't this.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Now they're back.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
Ah going to be on the ir trying to carry
down all these commandments.

Speaker 9 (13:07):
Yes, Todd, So part of this new kickoff dynamic rule
thing is at least in part not only to just
bring back returns but for players safety. But on the
other hand, let's see if they'll play nineteen games, twenty games,
maybe they'll play twenty three games where we can play
the super Bowl in May.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's like they're talking about at Todd, We're not doing
that today. No one said anything about playing the super
Bowl in May. But are those opposing nobody said twenty
three games.

Speaker 9 (13:30):
Do you agree that those are opposing things? Worried about
safety and they're going to question into each other on
these returns. Let's see how many games the time?

Speaker 3 (13:36):
What did I say to you before we started the.

Speaker 8 (13:38):
Show not to be negative on a front?

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yes, I think it's a fair part.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Where are we going? Well, you can say we're going
to eighteen games, that's true the middle of February now
President's Day weekend. Not nobody said, may you're being a
buzzkill and other players.

Speaker 8 (13:56):
Don't care about the players themselves don't care about safety?
Why should we?

Speaker 10 (13:59):
So?

Speaker 9 (13:59):
I can't the kickoff go back to the way it
was and the old question to each other? Why is
it being manipulated? While we're looking to have them play
more games whenever possible and less breaks. Play Sunday, play Thursday,
and then play the following Sunday. Play the Jets have
three games in ten days. I think to start this
season player safety.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Okay, this is it. This is the last thing, and
this last time we're doing this. Okay, we're going to
be positive. It's a Friday, That's all.

Speaker 8 (14:20):
That's all I wanted to say.

Speaker 3 (14:22):
Okay, do you promise that's all you'll say.

Speaker 8 (14:24):
Not all stuff for the show, but on this particular
topic if you want.

Speaker 9 (14:27):
But the Jets are playing like three games in ten
days by player safety.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
Are you done?

Speaker 4 (14:32):
Yep?

Speaker 3 (14:32):
Okay, all right, let me take a break. Let's settle
on poll question.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
And I mean this that we're gonna have a fun Friday,
not a fritzy Friday, but a fun Friday.

Speaker 8 (14:41):
Wings and laughter and yes.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Wings laughter, maybe beers because I don't want to put
you on Buffalo wing probation.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
I'm not going to do that.

Speaker 8 (14:52):
I'll be terrible.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
No, I'm not going to do that yet. We're only
fifteen minutes into the show. Okay, yeah, come on, now.

Speaker 8 (15:02):
Come on, come on, Happy Friday.

Speaker 7 (15:04):
Kickoffs Dynamic dynamic.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Kickoffs, Yeah, the new dynamic as opposed to the old
dynamic kickoff.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
Yes, well okay, yeah, why don't we reset? You want
to restart the show? We can start segment two fresh.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
Okay, Paul fine bomb a little bit later on, we'll
check in with the Chargers as well, with the issue
they may have with Justin Herbert. We'll take a break
just getting started on this fun Friday.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
Back after this.

Hey, I'm Doug Gottlieb. The podcast is called All Ball.

Speaker 9 (15:50):
We usually talk all basketball all the time, but it's
more about the stories about what made these people love
their sport and all the interesting interactions along the way.

We tell you stories.

Listen to All Ball with Doug Gottlieb on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
We'll get to your phone calls coming up.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
I'm curious what you thought of the new kickoff, and look,
Todd does bring up something that is you know, true,
It's real and that is the safety part of this.
The NFL trying to ensure more safety for its players.
While hey let's add another football game here. They do care.
I mean, you could still have both where they do
care about safety, but they want to grow the game.

(16:39):
NASCAR could have you know, no padded walls in there.
They could have restrict plates for every single race, races
would be run at one hundred and sixty miles an
hour they want to have. Now, you could have less
races if you wanted to, but you know, there has
to be a little bit of danger involved in this.
Like we they're doing something that we can't do won't

(17:00):
do with football. It's the same way you want to
have some kind of movement on the kickoff, Well, how
can we have that without having a little bit of danger.
The possibility you do, but there's an inherent risk when
you play football. It's there when you sign up. You
know that there is a chance, no matter what it
could be. On a simple play. You don't even have
to get hit and get hurt. But I think what

(17:22):
the NFL is trying to do is, yes, we're factoring
in safety, but we're also trying to grow the game,
and I think they are accomplishing that and the collisions
are going to be smaller. You can't build up you know,
big head of speed here. But also I think once
you break through that first line, you're gone. And I

(17:45):
think I would probably have one of my fastest players
stay back just so somebody breaks through that line of defense,
you're gone. I at least say, you know, because my
kicker is probably not going to stop anybody. Now, can
I get somebody who's not necessarily a great kicker, but
he's a good athlete, and therefore I could have him

(18:06):
in there, because now I don't have to kick it
into the end zone. I have to kick it into
this kind of little window there. Can you do that
and then make sure that you have your most athletic
team or some of your athletic guys waiting just in
case somebody happens to break through.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (18:22):
Even still, even if you put one of your most
athletic guys out there, making an open field tackle like
that is going to be pretty tough, right, what's going
to be better than the kicker? No, No, it's definitely
going to be. I'm just saying it's still a more
difficult play. That's what I actually find most interesting about
this is just we got our first look at it,
which obviously was just sort of played as straight down

(18:44):
the middle as you could. Yeah, there's no real strategy
or anything like that that we saw. It's I'm so
curious to know what kickoffs look like, you know, week
eight and then week sixteen, rather than this opening Hall
of Fame game.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
And I bet they look way different. Yeah, nobody's to
know what's gonna tip their hand as to their strategy.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
But who are.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Teams putting back there? With the Dolphins, put Tyreek Hill
and Jalen Waddle back there in a big game? I
would do you you put you know somebody who you
know has that ability. You know, the Viking's going to
put Justin Jefferson back there in a big game if
they play in a big game. You know, with the Cowboys,
put Ceedee Lamb back there. That's what I'm curious about.

(19:28):
And then you get an offensive minded guy like Mike McDaniel,
what is he going to be conjuring up, dreaming up
in the lab with We could do this, and I
think they'll be strategies. I think they'll be. I think
it can be. Well, it's got to be better than
what it was. I just hope it's It doesn't look
like just slow dancing where you know, you're you're going

(19:48):
to a dance, You're going to the prom, and everybody's
just slow dancing. You know, Eventually we got to pick
up the tempo a little bit. Yeah, Paul, going.

Speaker 5 (19:56):
Back to Tyreek Hill his first year in the league,
he was not a starting wide receiver. He handled their
punt returns. He led the league in punt return yardage
yardage per punt return. He had a ninety five yard
punt return and had two touchdowns to lead the league.
He was a best punt returner the one year he
did it.

Speaker 2 (20:11):
And watching the Bears last night, the Bears may not
be good, but the Bears are interesting. The Bears are relevant,
and that's what you want. And keep in mind most
teams that get the number one overall pick aren't very good.
They won seven games last year, they spent some money,
they gave a pretty good infrastructure to Caleb Williams, and

(20:33):
you get lucky, like the San Antonio Spurs didn't deserve.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
Tim Duncan, but they got him.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
And it's just like they made this trade with the
number one pick that then they got a number one
pick back from Carolina turned out to be Caleb Williams,
and they also got DJ Moore. It's like getting Andrew
Luck because Peyton Manning got injured, you had a bad year,
you were able to draft Andrew Luck. Similar with what
we're seeing with the Bears in Caleb Williams and more

(21:01):
on Caleb Williams coming up because there's a lot of people.
It's almost like he's the younger Aaron Rodgers, where it
feels like everybody has an opinion on him and he
might become polarizing. I like what the Bears are doing.
I've said before. You know, they're certainly on the periphery
if not going to be a playoff team. And yes

(21:21):
you have the Lions and the Packers in there. Maybe
Minnesota is competitive. But I like what Chicago's done and
they're interesting. Time now to play the game that Charger
fans didn't think they would be playing and certainly don't
want to because their quarterback Justin Herbert diagnosed with a
planter fascia fasci idis injury or planter fascia injury in

(21:46):
his right foot after Wednesday's practice, so he's in a
walking boot for two weeks. They said that there will
be a gradual return to play protocol and he's expected
to be ready in week one time now to play
the planter fasciitis game. And I didn't realize this, but

(22:07):
one of the Danetes has suffered through this injury. We'll
let him speak on behalf of the pain that he
went through. That'll be coming up. So we're ready to
play the Planter Facianies game.

Speaker 5 (22:21):
We are, dan and I'm sure Chargers fans are very
concerned or confused because is a condition?

Speaker 7 (22:26):
Is it an injury? Is it chronic?

Speaker 3 (22:28):
Where is it?

Speaker 5 (22:29):
Where is planter fasciitis or planter fascia? Who would like
to say in one sentence what it means to have
an injury? Which your planter fati?

Speaker 2 (22:37):
Well, I have to recuse one, Danette, because once again
he suffered through this.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
Seaton. I'm pretty confident I know what this is. Okay, Uh,
it is a overuse injury to the heel of the foot.

Speaker 7 (22:55):
Who giving him a point?

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Pretty good?

Speaker 7 (22:57):
There's more to it, but I don't giving him a
point pretty good?

Speaker 3 (22:59):
Marvin? Would you like to add to no, okay recusing okay?
Rather not so?

Speaker 4 (23:08):
Like?

Speaker 2 (23:08):
The heel is definitely the big one. Now do you
know where the planner Fancianius is?

Speaker 3 (23:13):
I was gonna say the heel also, okay?

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Yeah, and then the middle of the foot as well, Todd,
you have suffered through this debilitating injury.

Speaker 8 (23:22):
I did. I don't know the exact definition.

Speaker 9 (23:23):
I just know that my heels were like felt very
inflamed and just like you were.

Speaker 3 (23:28):
Oh so you had both had you had no duel, You're.

Speaker 8 (23:30):
Like stepping on it felt like you were stepping on
pebbles or rocks.

Speaker 9 (23:33):
Are just sharp pain in the heels, and you know,
then I had to get like kind of orthotic shoes.
They gave me some kind of little ball as an
exercise to like roll on it to try to strengthen
or loosen up the whatever tissues are going on in there.

Speaker 8 (23:46):
But it's extremely painful just to walk.

Speaker 9 (23:48):
I can't imagine how you can participate in a tackle
football game.

Speaker 3 (23:51):
But you were able to resume your career.

Speaker 9 (23:53):
I was able to resume my life and my career,
and I've been through far worse things than that, but
it was not pleasant.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Okay, So gradual return to play protocol, and they're hoping
that he's ready for week one.

Speaker 3 (24:05):
Yes, suppose so.

Speaker 5 (24:06):
Based off Fritzy having it appears not just use can
get it, but lack of use to your heels or atrophy.

Speaker 8 (24:11):
Maybe sitting on a couch you can get I don't
know how that's possible. You can get it.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
Yeah, sitting motionless for decades, it's a painful inflammation to
the planter fascia, a thick band of tissue that connects
the heel bone to the toes. So if you flex
your foot upward and feel the bottom of your foot,
there's kind of a cable down there.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:29):
When that cable's are hurting, you're hurting. They said, though
it's one of those things that's not necessarily need surgery.
It could just be pain management generally.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
When asked if he was concerned about his quarterback missing time,
Jim Harbaugh said, it's still.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
Full steam ahead, full steam ahead, okay.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
But when they say that they are hopeful he'll be
ready for week one, that's where it got my attention,
because this, you know, it's like turf toe. When you
hear that, you go, how bad in turf toe be? Well,
it's ended careers. Dion Deon's had surgeries because of that.
Jack Lambert, great linebacker with the Steelers. I think his

(25:12):
career was cut short due to turf toe. It just
doesn't sound like, oh he's got turf toe, Oh he's
got planner fasciitis. They're you know, they can stay there,
they can be persistent, and certainly turf toe has been
But yeah, so justin Herbert diagnosed with that and he's

(25:32):
in a walking boot right now. All right, Seeton poll
question any other ones that we're thinking about today, got
some phone calls to get here.

Speaker 6 (25:40):
Yeah, well the kickoff seems to be the big story today.
All We've got that one up there right now. I
can give you some early results. Okay, if you would.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
Like to see that, my computer would start. What was
your reaction to FIRS seeing it? Dan, I liked it,
like I was.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
I was mildly entertained by I was more entertained by
the kickoff than I will the game itself. Oh god, yes, Well,
I didn't expect anything with the game, right, and I
didn't know what to expect with the kickoff, and therefore
I was like, okay, right.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
So you have eight kickoffs, seven are returned.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
I'm fine, Just give me movement. It's like baseball. For
so many years there was no movement. Now they're trying
to encourage you to steal bases. Maybe somebody will learn
how to bunt, or there's a hit and run or
crazy things like that, but baseball becomes very static, and
baseball shouldn't be that way. There should be movement. And

(26:33):
the same with the kickoff, there's at least movement there
instead of And also the camera angle was weird because
you see everything. Normally, it's you see the kicker and
then you see the ball you know it's going and
then right there flashballs are gonna be going off, you
know in the big game, the Super Bowl, And it

(26:55):
was just a different angle there because everybody's down at
this end. Now I get to see blocking patterns. I
just I'm curious if somebody has that secret weapon, if
somebody you put them back there and they can change
a game, that that'll be fun.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
And I wonder if I said, can you check.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
And see if Vegas, maybe you know, our our betting
partner at DraftKings the over under for kick for kickoff
returns for touchdown there.

Speaker 7 (27:25):
For the league.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yes, that's a type of let me look, I'd be.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Curious about that if they had an over under, Like
if I said, well, how I don't even know how
many their kickoff returns for touchdowns there were last year.
But the fact that it's going to be put into play,
if I said there's going to be fifteen kickoff's return yeah, Pauline.

Speaker 5 (27:46):
How many kickoff return touchdowns the entire season? Last year
in the NFL. Do you think there were I want
to play that game.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
It's ready to go, Yes, Todd, you want to go first?
How many kids?

Speaker 11 (27:57):
Three?

Speaker 8 (27:57):
I'm kidding. I was off yesterday. They were kickoff returns
for touchdown four?

Speaker 3 (28:02):
Okay, seating doesn't it doesn't Marvin eight eight, I'm gonna
go six.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
I have four returns for touchdowns recovery from three?

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Yeah, okay, over under this year? Over under kickoff's return
for a touchdown this year? Let me see, I'm gonna
set it at nine and a half.

Speaker 7 (28:37):
Bags is going crazy?

Speaker 3 (28:38):
Nine and a half. Who's going over? Oh? Back rowly?
Oh mar oh everybody.

Speaker 6 (28:46):
I think there's gonna be so many this year that
they're going to have to reaching your rule again.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
Be like, oh you have to figure this out.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
No, now they're gonna go you know what. On second thought,
we're just gonna get get into the end zone here. Well,
we didn't think we were gonna have all these touchdowns here.

Speaker 3 (29:01):
Wow, what happened here? That's crazy?

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (29:05):
Ben and Georgia, Good morning, Ben, what's on your mind today?

Speaker 10 (29:09):
A DP five five one sixty hands.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Bigger than Marvin.

Speaker 10 (29:13):
Okay, so I am a seminary graduate. And to Seatan's
point earlier about the ten Commandments, fun fact, after the
ten Commandments, over the years, they became six hundred and
thirteen commandments throughout the Torah. In other words, much like
the NFL in the Old Testament, they kept adding and

(29:34):
adding and adding to the rules.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
Well, thank you, Ben here, I'm thinking that maybe fifteen commandments.
And then Moses said, you got it. Come on, you're
killing me here, Let's get it down to ten. Yes, Tom,
what can you do.

Speaker 8 (29:47):
With your life? Is this six hundred and thirteen commandments?
You got to just kind of sit and do nothing.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
There's a whole lot you can't do.

Speaker 5 (29:53):
Yes, bully, I bet if you know we had retraction,
you know on the commandments, Fritzy covet th neighbor's wife,
that would be your my day.

Speaker 6 (30:02):
Wow, six hundred and thirteen commandments doesn't have the same
ring to it as the ten commands from Generous through Deuteronomy.
Whoa six hundred and thirteen tenny of them are obsolete
and they.

Speaker 8 (30:16):
Have in mill Brooks history of the world.

Speaker 9 (30:17):
Probably one I thought like they showed him like holding
like the fifteen one of the tablet.

Speaker 8 (30:20):
He just dropped it or something and fell over it broke.

Speaker 7 (30:23):
He comes down from the bounty.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
I bring you these fifteen and he.

Speaker 5 (30:26):
Goes rash goes, oh, these ten commandments. This is interesting
if you look back at the old days, adultery must
have been a big thing. Both number six you shall
not commit adultreat and number nine you shall not covet
the neighbor's wife. That could have probably probably been combined
into one if you think about it, because you got
to cove it. Then finish the process.

Speaker 7 (30:47):
Complete the pro right. You could have done. One commandment
had a bonus commandment.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
Whoa you said bonus Yes he did, yes, bonus commandment.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
Buddha in California, Good morning, Buddha. How are you no fuddy?

Speaker 12 (31:07):
Happy meet Friday boys, And to the Minister of Humor,
every day's the Super Bowl, Baby, let's go Ritzy, Let's go.

Speaker 10 (31:16):
DP.

Speaker 12 (31:16):
I loved the Coach Kate interview earlier this week. Whenever
he's on, that's like a muth listen interview for me.
And there's always some zingers in there. And I love
the back and forth between you guys. You guys always
have a really great little report going on. But Dan,
speaking of coach. Speaking of Coach Pop, he would come
into the restaurant I used to work at in San Francisco,
and he was a big time wine guy. He loved

(31:39):
his white Burgundy, hence his Oregon project with Shartonnay and
Pino Nowar. So definitely brush up with the burgundy, Dan,
before you have him on and.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Give me give me a Buddha, give me a good
Burgundy here.

Speaker 12 (31:52):
Oh like Pier East Clen Murray from Mrsau. I mean
you got you know, Ramine is like the king of Burgundy.
I mean Paul for No and Putiny Maherche. I mean
you have like the trifecta within the villages there. You
have Puini Mahroche, you have Mursaux and you have Shassania Marche.
Those are like the three main villages in there, Dan Dahn,

(32:13):
My fear is that Pop comes on the show and
he starts dropping Burgundy bombs on you, and then you
sound like Marvin interviewing Pebo, and you're gonna be like
remember the remember that wine is red?

Speaker 6 (32:24):
Right?

Speaker 12 (32:24):
Oh cool wine?

Speaker 2 (32:25):
No?

Speaker 12 (32:25):
Good?

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Well, I would just bring up cabs and pinos to him.
I mean that might you know, lower the expectations of
the conversation, but I would try to stay within my
wheelhouse here.

Speaker 12 (32:39):
Well, I'm just I just got you back there and
so let you know.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
I appreciate that. I appreciate that.

Speaker 12 (32:43):
Okay, question about I have a question about the the
USA three on three basketball game? Okay, what is the story?
Like why we rolling out? Just like why don't we
just roll out like some college players or like you know,
collect maybe some other NBA players and collect another goal.
We got baby Berry out there shooting on her hand
of free throws and Jimmer and I love Jimmer at all,
but it's just it's not good.

Speaker 3 (33:06):
Thank you, Buddha.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
Yeah, I'm watching the men and women's three on three.
We didn't really put a formidable team out there. You know,
it's my my civic pride, my patriotic pride is not
dented or hurt by this, but there is part of.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
It there you go.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
Okay, could we have put somebody else out there? And
did we invent this?

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Is? This? Is this ice cube contribution to the Olympics.

Speaker 13 (33:39):
I'd rather have guys from the Big Three represent the
US than Jimmer for day.

Speaker 8 (33:43):
Oh you know what, whoever wins the Big Big.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Three should represent team us, Yes, absolutely, and then the
women's team is Ozero in three year, Yes, she has
she has oh Man. Well, at least she not guarding
Caitlyn Clark. Well, she didn't guard Caitlyn Clark even when
she was supposed to guard Kitlyn Clark. But yeah, they've

(34:06):
they lost all three of their games. And then Rick Barry,
the Hall of Famer, his son Canyon Barry is there
with Jimmer for debt.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
I love Jimmer for debt, but I don't know.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
It just feels like we might be able to strengthen.
You know what, Jalen Brown should be on the three
on three.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
Right, why not we find out how that roster was selected.
I don't know if it was. It's puzzling.

Speaker 2 (34:32):
There's like three on three tryouts and four guys showed up.

Speaker 6 (34:37):
Like, as much as I love Jimmer, the fact that
he's like the marquee name there.

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Yeah, how would that.

Speaker 9 (34:43):
Go over exactly if they approached Jalleen Brown. Now you
know you didn't make the main team, but we're doing
this three on three Thingion.

Speaker 3 (34:48):
Hey, you might get a gold medal.

Speaker 8 (34:51):
You'll get your minutes and everything.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
Yeah, unless he got benched, you know, like Jason Tatum.
I can't believe it disrespected Jason Tatum, as.

Speaker 8 (34:58):
Derek White walks past him.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
Yes, you have a seat checking in. Yeah, yeah, Derek
White checking in. It was humbly Yeah.

Speaker 8 (35:05):

were using them this morning. Seaton went to a restaurant
last night, and now everybody's caught up on the show

(36:46):
The Bear and the language that goes on in the kitchen,
and you pick up the story you were seated by
the kitchen last night.

Speaker 6 (36:55):
Yeah, well, I mean I think it's probably more that
now we know what the languages, and the kitchens have
probably always used it. But we were sitting right next
to the kitchen and the woman like took our order
and she was like, oh okay, yeah, I'll go get
that and she went around.

Speaker 3 (37:06):
Corner and like it turned corner.

Speaker 6 (37:11):
Oh boy, it does feel like, now everyone's watched the bear? Yes, like,
oh my god, yes, she just said corner, like, hey,
can we get some more better?

Speaker 3 (37:20):
Hurt?

Speaker 12 (37:21):
Hurt?

Speaker 3 (37:22):
Hurt? Yeah, hurt.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Oh my gosh, what are some of the what are
some of the terms that are being used now in
kitchens all over America?

Speaker 3 (37:31):
Behind? Oh yeah, behind, which I get. I totally get
why you have to do that.

Speaker 6 (37:35):
As someone who's never worked in the kitchen, I totally
get how hands yeah, hands, I get why a lot
of that lingo exists.

Speaker 3 (37:42):
But it is funny to hear it in the wild.
Hands I need hands now? Yeah? Yeah, corner, Oh my gosh,
it's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (37:53):
Brian in Seattle, Good morning, Brian, what's on your mind? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (37:57):
I got one liner for Fritzy. He probably messed out on.

Speaker 11 (38:03):
Planet fasciitis.

Speaker 4 (38:05):
Sounds like a nut allergy.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
Okay, all right, not allergy planter. Thank you, Brian, Thank you.
It hurts to walk on them. I think is leg
I think that. Dan and Indiana, Hi, Dan.

Speaker 4 (38:25):
Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call.

Speaker 8 (38:27):
Hey, I got it.

Speaker 12 (38:28):
First of all, I just.

Speaker 4 (38:29):
Wanted to ask something. I know you guys are in
the snoop doggs. Have you seen his commentary on the
bad bit I have not USh and then he does
this animal narrate these animal shows. He's like a run
lizard run. I mean, he's just super funny. If you
guys get a chance to look that stuff up. I
really love Snoop Dogg on that stuff. But I called

(38:51):
for the kickoff. Are we ever really that surplies on
an kick anyways? I mean the Saints one is the
only one I can think of that we were surprised
at it.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
I mean, but Dan, I think it's nice to have
the option of surprise. That's all that that it could happen,
whether it does or doesn't. But you know, for the
most part, I'm guessing that professionals know when there's going
to be and you could see when you know, the
kickers going towards the ball, or some of the players

(39:22):
may give away, may tip off what they're doing. But
just the element of surprise would be I'd love to
have that.

Speaker 3 (39:29):
Now.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
I got to announce it. James and Iowa h James Hey, Dan.

Speaker 11 (39:37):
Smart Away in about the three on three. Yeah, the
uh so, according to the rules, to be eligible for
the Olympics, you have to have played one season in
the three on three for the International League. Yes, so yeah,
So until we can really convince some NBA players who

(39:59):
are maybe marginal of staying in the league to actually play,
you're gonna get kind of this, like, who the heck
are these people?

Speaker 4 (40:06):
You know?

Speaker 11 (40:06):
Every Olympics.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Yeah, and uh yeah, we've done some research on that.
It was just I was surprised that, you know, the
talent pool should be a little bit deeper, I would think.
And maybe it's we don't like losing, therefore, can't we
get a better team in there for three on three
I'm guessing, but you have to go through the protocols
there with FIBA, with basketball playing in these three on

(40:29):
three events, Yes, Marvin.

Speaker 13 (40:31):
Ice Cubes got to get in touch with FOBA, Like, look,
the winner of the Big Three in twenty twenty seven,
they represent the US.

Speaker 3 (40:37):
Yeah, but FEBA doesn't care if the US is good.

Speaker 13 (40:41):
Well, no, I would say it from that standpoint. I'm
just saying, ice Cube, you should reach out whoever wins
the Big Three in our league. They can represent the
US in the Olympics at twenty twenty.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
In LA, well, we can just make up something. I mean,
it is LA. Yeah, Paul and Old school.

Speaker 5 (40:57):
Ice Cube should reach out, like with the Raider hat
On and the Jerry Curl, a little more threatening.

Speaker 7 (41:03):
They'll be a little nervous.

Speaker 2 (41:05):
Boys, boy, oh my gosh, boy should see him coming up.
We're gonna check in with the Chargers any reason for
concern and the Chicago Bears Caleb Williams rubbing people the
wrong way already
