Dan thinks any criticism of Team USA Men’s Basketball head coach Steve Kerr’s decision making should wait until after they win (or don’t win) the gold medal at the Olympics. And Jeremy Schaap joins the show with an update from Paris.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Final Hour in this Monday Dan and the Dant Dan
Patrick Show, we'll give you our best and worst of
the weekend coming up more of your phone calls as well.
We say good morning to our newest affiliate, It's Sports
Radio ninety five seven Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, Iowa, home
with the Hawkeys and Iowa Sports and our thanks to
(00:24):
Doug Wagner, the program director making this happen all right
eight seven to seven three DP show email address Dpadanpatrick
dot com, Twitter handle a TP show. The final hour
poll question is going to be what set o connor?
We got a few of them working here, Dan, let
me update you on all of tho. All right, as
a matter of fact, let's see rooting for the White
(00:46):
Sox to win asap or keep losing? Right now, that one.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Is holding strong at eighty five percent of the audience
want them to keep losing, mean spirited? Who had the
worst weekend? John Ram about forty percent of that just
behind them or the White Sox and Michigan Football, Michigan Football.
And second, as a matter of fact, there and then
who had the best weekend? It is a dead even
tie between Scotty Scheffler and Noah Ales.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Not ironically, how about that?
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Okay, Yeah, Scotty Scheffler was listed at plus six thousand
to win the event with five holes to play, and
rightfully so, because it looked like John ram all he
I do is par the back nine and he was
going to win the gold. Well he fell apart. Scotty
Scheffler played great. That's one of those where you want
to see somebody win an event, not somebody lose an event.
(01:34):
So you won it, and you can make the argument
John Rohm lost it, but Scotty Scheffler shot at sixty two.
I mean all the great rounds of golf. Now, once again,
when you play at the Masters, US Open, British Open, PGA,
you're playing for yourself, you're playing at the Olympics, and
now you're playing for your country. While you're playing for yourself,
(01:57):
you're going to get the gold medal, but you're presenting
your country. And I think that took Now. I can't
speak for Scotty Scheffler, but it took on more of
an importance because the gravity of I'm playing for my
country and the reason why I felt this was because
I watched Scotti Scheffler. He's won majors. He didn't get
(02:17):
emotional like he did yesterday. You'd stand on the podium
and you hear the anth hand over your heart, he's
singing the anthem, and all of a sudden, you're in
a foreign country and you're probably thinking of everything, millions
of things flashing in front of you, of what this means,
(02:38):
watching the Olympics when you're growing up, that I ever
think I'd win a gold medal. I mean he might
have thought, hey, I can win a green jacket. I
don't know if I could ever win a gold medal,
but he got that chance, like Novak Djokovic, the same thing.
He's accomplished all of these things, as decorated as any
tennis player in history. It's the one thing he didn't have,
(02:59):
gold medal, and he was consumed by it. It brought
him to his knees, emotional, you know, grabbing a hold
of his family because they knew how much it meant.
That's where you can try to script this, but you can't.
That's what makes sports so great. Because as much as
Scotti Scheffler probably thought all right, I'll get up there,
(03:21):
get the podium to myself, and then they'll give me
the gold medal, and then they play the anthem and
then I fly home. And then all of a sudden,
you get up there. And I've done this before in
a you know, a much lesser degree, but winning a
Sports Emmy where you go, all right, just get up there,
thank people, get the trophy and walk off, and then
(03:42):
all of a sudden, you get up there and you
realize what it means to you, and it hits you,
and it hit me hard. First time I won one,
I was like, oh my god, I can't put words together,
trust me, guys, Danet, oh like it it hit me,
you know when I won my Sports Emmy. But individual
(04:03):
Sports Jemmy there, Yeah, Which one of you guys will
cry if we when we win a Sports Emmy? Marvin?
Will you cry when we get up there?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Easily? I am the black big for meal.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
That's a shirt.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
Great line, I'm crying right now.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Okay, Todd, would you cry if we won the Sports Timmy?
Speaker 6 (04:37):
I would be very excited, but I don't think I'd
be brought to tears for some reason.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, Seating, would you cry? I'm a crier, but I
don't think I would know. Paulie, Oh yeah, you're not crying.
Speaker 7 (04:46):
I would like to say no, and the assumption is no.
But like you said, things can surprise you in life.
I bet Scotti Scheffler when when he won it. You're
you're totally right now, you're saying it was it's not
normal for him to win this. He was putting his
stuff back in his bag when Tommy Fleetwood missed the
putt and he and his kindie goes, hey, thanks, like
my five little bro hug, and he starts putting stuff away,
grabbing his phone, and then fifteen minutes later it's like
(05:07):
he's bawling his eyes out.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Yes to Paully might say, this is very emotional.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I myself, I would be emotional because of what that
would represent to all of us here. But yes, you
can sit there and go, oh yeah, I'll be fine. Yeah,
I won't get emotional here. Then you get up there
and all of a sudden, it's quiet and everybody's staring
at you, and you're like, I got to put words
(05:32):
to I get paid to put words together. Except for
if you went into you know, Hall of Fame. Those
kinds of things I'm a mess. I'm terrible. So that's
why I'm going to have you guys speak when we
win that Sports Emmy. You guys are going to do
this speaking. I'm not going to say anything, but.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I've had the same speech since before COVID.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I know it's been a while, been a while, but
I did wonder about, you know, the twenty twenty five
Ryder Cup with all the great golfers that we've had.
You know, Keegan Bradley going to be the captain there,
but he got Scheffler, Bryce and de Shambeau, Xander Schaffley,
Colin Moore, Cowlong, Wyndham Clark, Sahi, Tha Gala. These are
(06:11):
all really, really really good golfers and feel a whole
lot better after we got humbled in the Ryder Cup
this last time, now on our soil in twenty twenty five.
All right, we got our pole question for the final hour,
Let's go around the room. Best and worst of the weekend.
Let me start with the Black Dick, Vermeal, Marvin, your
best and worst of the weekend?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
All right, best of the weekend.
Speaker 8 (06:32):
Anthony Edward's going twenty six points in only seventeen minutes
as the usbat Puerto Rico and then worse at the
weekend our men the three on three, they got eliminated.
They lost twenty one to six to the Netherlands. So
no gold medal for Jimmer.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, Jimmer got hurt. Jimmer got hurt. I think maybe
tore some muscles there, But I don't remember playing time
being this much of a discussion. I saw a topic
bar on the Mothership that said, you know, is Steve
Kerr creating this drama because he didn't play Jason Tatum.
Steve Kerr is as savvy as anybody I've ever met
(07:09):
when it comes to coaching. I don't think he goes,
you know what, let me create something here a little bit. Yeah,
I mean he benched Joe el Embiid. But can you
remember any other Olympics where we were discussing or trying
to debate about the playing time. I get it, Jason Tatum,
great player, great year, and he sat down and you
(07:32):
didn't get to play. This is social media, is what
this is. Because I didn't go, oh my god, as
long as you're winning and I got somebody out there
getting buckets, Ben, I don't need to put you in
This isn't you know, participatory trophy time. We got to win,
and I'm gonna win with who I think deserves to
(07:52):
be out there, the right person to be out there.
I mean, the players should be fine with this. What
did Mike Shrushevski say. He coached a team that probably
had as many egos as any other team in the
history of basketball. He was there with the Dream Team
as an assistant coach, and what did he say. I
(08:14):
made them take a pledge that we were going to
be all in on this, a pledge like we're going
to be collective here. This isn't about playing time. This
is about We're going to take a pledge.
Speaker 9 (08:32):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
This is. Let's win, and if Steve Kerr wins, then
I don't think this is going to be a topic
of conversation. It shouldn't be, and I'm surprised it is
this much. But it feels like, once again the time
of the year, what there is to discuss, what there
is to debate? So factor that in, okay, I let
(08:53):
you behind the curtain. Is this manufactured? In my opinion
it is, But this is the debate shows going. We
gotta have something to talk about here. How about Jason
Tatum not playing. Oh, Steve Kerr trying to you know,
mess up things here. You know, I don't think Game
Bay got upset with Joellenbiid being bench, did they? Well?
Speaker 7 (09:13):
Yeah, Pauling, I agree with you, and I think you're
like ninety percent right on what you're saying. But I
consider myself a pretty knowledgeable basketball guy, but not an expert,
no way an expert. When I see Derek White playing
and Jason Tatum not playing.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
They don't play the same position.
Speaker 7 (09:27):
I understand, but I, in my mind think Jason Tatum
is drastically better than Derek White week to week as
a basketball player.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
So I think it.
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Needs to be explained to people. When you see it now,
there is tons of reaction. I have the same reaction, like, Okay,
I know they don't play the same position, but the
way Jason Tatum plays his position is really really good.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
But I'd rather have Kevin Durant than Jason Tatum.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
And I'm fine with that. I think that, But I
think a lot of people who are casual basketball fans
would ask for an explanation, and in a measured way.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
That's how I But have we done this before?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
When's the Lancet Olympics, where you go lead a big
controversy over playing time.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
I would say go back, and this is a long,
long time ago when John Thompson selected that Olympic team
and he said, trust me, I know what kind of
guys I want, and he took Dan Marley, who we
didn't know, over really good players.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
But that's taking somebody, not the playing time.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
That's the last time I was telling.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
About playing time. And that's where we've manufactured this because
somehow somebody wants to make Steve Kerr look bad or
that he doesn't like Jason Tatum. Draymond Green on his
podcast came out and said that his coach, you know,
should have played Jason Tatum. Well, that led me to
believe exactly what I'm believing is this is about getting clicks.
(10:41):
This is about if Draymond said, hey, trust Steve Kerr.
He's one of the great coaches in NBA history. Nobody
cares about that. But if he's like, hey, you know what,
he should have played him, Yes.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
It's almost like Steve Kurr isn't getting any credit for
being a good coach because of the team he coaches.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yes, and that happens So I mean Chuck Daley didn't
get credit for the dream team.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Who couldn't win with that Warriors lineup? Who couldn't win
with that team? That's Mark, that's Mark Jackson's team that
he should have gotten all of those rings?
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah, who couldn't do that?
Speaker 3 (11:13):
He has a little bit of that, And it's sort
of carrying over into the Olympics where's he's not respected
by some people as a coach.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
If Pop did this, I don't think people would have
a problem with this. No, I don't If Phil Jackson
did this, I don't think people would have a problem.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Yes, Mark, we also love to complain because the US
they're winning all their games comfortably, and we still have
something to complain about.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
We want something to complain about. These debate shows. We're
gonna remember Caitlyn Clark. Well, nobody said anything about Caitlyn Clark.
Why because the team is great, they didn't need her
and she might be sitting on the bench and then
you know what that would have created. Why did she played?
Oh are they dissing her by keeping her on the
(12:00):
bed like this is? This is we're in the entertainment business.
Little girls want to see her play? Yeah, I get it.
We're creating something here, Paul. Best and worst of the weekend,
I got two.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
I don't have a worst. I got two best. I
gon know.
Speaker 7 (12:18):
USA swimmer Bobby Fink back to back Olympics with Olympic
gold in the fifteen hundred and he got a world record.
Great job by him. And then Saint Lucia, the small
country Julian Alfred won Wednesday hundred meter women's gold medal.
They were going crazy in Saint Lucia. I think it's
less than two hundred thousand entire country. Julian Alfred with
the gold.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Todd Best and Worst of the weekend.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
Giants pitcher Blake Snell never completed eight innings over his
nine year career through no hit of Friday Night and
the three nothing went at the Reds. Good job, Blake Snell.
Worst of the weekend. Staying with baseball, Blue Jay's manager
John Schneider intentionally walks Aaron Judge in the second inning Salday,
Nobody's on base, two outs, forty thousand plus booing at
Yankee Stadium. Judge becomes the first player intentionally walked with
(13:00):
the bases empty in the first twinnings of a game
in the past half century.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
How about this one the last Yankee to be walked
intentionally three times in a game after you know or
before Aaron Judge. If you said Bernie Williams g would
be correct.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Let's stop.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, yeah, here comes here comes that? What stat of
the day Seaton Best and Worst of the weekend.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
I'm going with a best and it is the country
of Ireland. Daniel Wiffin, the swimmer, getting a lot of attention. Right,
He's picked himself up a gold out of nowhere, got
a bronze as well.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Total medals for Ireland at the Olympic Games between nineteen
sixty and nineteen ninety two they had six, and all
that time, the whole country had six medals. This week,
the first week of the Paris Games, they've had seven.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I think the over utter was two and a half.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
They had more medals in one week than they had
in thirty two years. The word powerhouse is being thrown around.
It's a little early for that, but I'm just saying,
don't sleep on Ireland.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Let's go right, yeah, okay, power house Okay, h Noah
in Pennsylvania, Hi A, Noah, thanks for holding best and
worst of the weekend.
Speaker 10 (14:28):
Hey, Dan, so I got a short story to put
a previous topic the rest and two best of the weekend,
like Paulie So, like you mentioned earlier, shut up and
Spanish just pronounced kayat. And I didn't learn that from
going on the internet or anything or in the schoolroom.
I learned that from ninth grade basketball when my teammate
(14:50):
was chirping to the rap about one of the calls
and his mom was in the stands going Kiatajonatan Kyrite.
That always made me and my mom crack up. Tell
them that story. But so the first one. My first
best of the weekend is Steven Superman winning a bronze
(15:12):
in the pommel horse, as a tremendous gymnast that he is.
And my second best is Katie Bladeki winning her fourth
goals in the eight hundred meters freestyle race. That's incredible.
And the fact that she hasn't given a firm I
believe she hasn't given a firm yes or no to
(15:32):
participating in a fist.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
You shouldn't give any indication, thank you. Noan Her and
si oone Biles don't owe anybody anything. I don't want
you to make a decision now enjoy it. Why now
we want to let's fast track this to twenty twenty
eight in La. Just enjoy it. You've earned that, both
(15:55):
of you have. You don't owe anybody an explanation for
any of this.
Speaker 6 (15:59):
Yes, it's bad enough when they ask a coach or
player are you coming back next season? This is four
years from now, so it's kind of insane.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Well, I think Simone Biles brought up that, hey, when
you get married, when you're having a kid, Hey you
had a kid, when you have in your next kid?
And we sort of have that mindset when it comes
to athletics as well, Hey you won uh are you
going to compete in the next Olympics. It's it's constant
moving forward and nodding allowed, not allowing these athletes coaches
(16:28):
to kind of revel in the moment there. And I
agree with Simone Biles, and I don't know if Katie
Leadecki felt the same way, but Simone's like, you know,
let's just enjoy this. How about we take a break.
We will talk to Jeremy Shapp from the Mothership. He'll
join us from Paris. Coming up. More of your phone
calls as well. We're back after this.

Couple of phone calls, then we'll get to ESPN reporter
Jeremy Sham. He will join us from Paris. Matt in Virginia.
Hey Matt, what's on your mind today? Thanks for holding.
Speaker 12 (17:42):
Good morning Dan. My mess on the weekend was Devin
Hester getting into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and
especially his speech where he highlighted other return guys like
Brian Mitchell and Josh Cribbs and supporting their induction as well.
(18:02):
I just wanted to see what you thought the future
was for guys like that. I'm a Washington fan, so
I saw Mitchell for a decade and what a difference
he made. I mean, there's only one guy in NFL
history with moral purpose yards than Mitchell, and that's Jerry Rice.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Yeah. I hope that. You know it's you're asking these writers,
these voters, you know, to factor in other things because
you know it takes takes a long time for them
to go, well, the specificity of somebody's role, like you're
a special you know, Matthew Slater, is he a Hall
of Famer? I mean he might play six ' ten
(18:43):
plays a game. First Team All Pro comes down to
a place kicker like Adam Vinitari. Yes, Morton Anderson, yes,
but it take It's taken a while for them to
be recognized. A punter taken a while. It took Ray
guy for a long time. But you have to be
(19:04):
the absolute best. And I think it takes research to
realize what Brian Mitchell did and how dangerous, how valuable
he was. But Devin Hester, he set the bar and
now you're going to be compared to Devin Hester. And
that might be the tricky part here, but I hope
I just know that how backbreaking that could be opening kickoff.
(19:27):
It's like Ricky Henderson hitting a leadoff home run in
a game, like it's oh my god, we're already behind
and it just breaks your back or gain. You just
tie the score, you kick off and they take it back.
I mean, just those guys are so few and far between. Yeah, Pauline, I.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
Know we talk about Dione Sanders a lot on the show,
but if you took away his career as a defensive back,
he's flirting with the Hall of Fame as a return
man and he didn't return all of them, but he
returned a lot. He had six punt returns for touchdown
and three kick off returns for touchdown. Out He would
have to do a lot more work there, but it
shows that just his return game was flirting with all
(20:06):
time like Cordero.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Patterson, to me is one of the more dangerous guys,
versatile guys. Now is he a Hall of Famer? Probably not,
but man, it was dangerous. Like you know, when he's
back there, it's all you know. Now all of a sudden,
it changes. But I don't know if you're going to
get more kick returns, and I mean I hope we do.
(20:28):
I hope we get touchdowns. I hope we get excitement
there instead of seven yards, twelve yards, you know, maybe
thirty yards.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Yes, yes, but then we're going to say, but that
was in the dynamic.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
As yeah, you're probably right about that. All right, more
phone calls coming up. We spoke with Jeremy Shapp earlier
this morning in Paris, and I started off by asking
the dan Ads, beginning with Todd, whether or not they
thought that Jeremy Shapp of the Mothership could speak fluent French.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yes, Seaton, one of the many languages he speaks. Yes, Marvin, Yes,
Paulie probably majored in English. But yes, I'm gonna say,
no way.
Speaker 9 (21:10):
Are you asking you?
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Now?
Speaker 9 (21:11):
Do I get to yes, I'm going to invoke my
Fifth Amendment privileges. I did take nine years of French,
but it made virtually no impact on me. I try,
I do put in the time and the effort, but
usually it just gets me into trouble. I joke, I
know just enough to be dangerous.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Dan nine years, nine years.
Speaker 9 (21:35):
Fourth grade through twelfth grade. In fact, I went to
a junior high school in New York that was primarily
a French school. Basically every other kid spoke French, and
so I was already too far behind. But I blame
my teachers.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
They were yeah, cool, Yeah, of course punishment. Let's look
back on Sunday. The biggest story of Sunday Djokovic, Scheffler,
Noah Asles other no.
Speaker 9 (22:01):
Lyles' is the biggest story. It's the one hundred meters dash.
It's you know, historically one of the marquee events at
the Olympic Games. Golf is something I still don't really
associate with the Olympics, frankly. And it goes the same
for tennis. I mean, they've been part of the programs
now for some time, tennis more than golf. But you know,
(22:22):
those are sports that have their other moments. When you're
talking about the Olympics, you're talking about Jesse Owens and
Bob Hayes and Jackie Joyner Kersey and Donovan Bailey and
Hussein Bolt and this is the you know, the race
that confers the status is the fastest man in the world,
the fastest human on the planet. And it wasn't just
(22:44):
that he won. It was a spectacular race. And you
know how it goes to the Olympics and you know,
you know these things are spread out all over city
some cases all over country and you don't get to everything.
But last night I went up to this God de France,
just you know, outside of the peripheriq North Past and
San Deni because I wanted to see one hundred meter
dash in person. I'd never seen it in person before.
(23:04):
I'd seen the four by one hundred a few times,
and and the way they build up the height, the
drama as the race is about to start. I mean,
it's you know, it's like it's like when Roy Jones
used to fight or Mike Tyson used to fight. They really,
you know, made it a show. And by the time
that race starts and you've been sitting there, and you know,
(23:25):
I was enjoying the other stuff too. You know, I'm
a big fan of the hammer throw, but you are,
you're you're ready for that, you know, ten seconds and
it was a spectacular race. And we were all standing
there just like the runners themselves at the end, wondering
who'd want that's a great race.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I mentioned to the audience. I mentioned to the dan
Ets quite a few times. One of the greatest moments
I ever had at the Olympics was in London with
Usain Bolt and watching what he was running the two
hundred meters. TV spoils you because it keeps everything in frame.
When you're there watching, you don't, I mean, you get
the true sense of just how fast somebody is on TV.
(24:04):
You're like, wow, they're all kind of running together, and
there it is. It's over.
Speaker 9 (24:07):
It flattens the whole thing. It flattens the whole thing.
And you know, as I said, I've been to the
four by one hundred a couple of times. I remember seeing,
you know, Donovan Balley's team Team Canada win in ninety
six in Atlanta. The US often you know, messes up
the pass, uh, but the one hundred and to see
those fastest humans on the planet and you know, I
(24:30):
think it was nine seven, nine to nine, nine to
one all of the guys. We're talking about twelve one
hundredths of a second separating first place and last place
and not in no lyles having to overcome a tough
start to win the race. And you know, it's been
(24:54):
a long drought for America in the sprints. This is
you know, an event that we've dominated since the revive
of the Olympic Games in eighteen ninety six in Athens,
Dan and then all the great names and that, you know,
the Eddie Tolans and the Ralph Metcalts and the Jesse
owens Is and Harrison Dillard's and we could go on
right Ay's and Hines. It's uh, it was. It was
(25:19):
really exciting.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Talking to Jeremy Shapper the mothership joining us from Paris,
USA swimming in Australia. Do we not like each other?
Is it a true rivalry?
Speaker 9 (25:32):
I mean it always has been, you know. I you know,
I'm not around the swimmers asking them about you know,
do you know, uh, you know what you feel about
this person personally, et cetera, et cetera. But it's always
been one of the great rivalries in swimming. And I
think you know, you know, I'm not sure the current
medal count going back all the way beginning, but if
(25:53):
you're to ask me, who are the two nations that
have dominated swimming over the last one hundred and thirty years,
it's Australia, right and the United States. The United States
number one, Australia number two. And you know, there was
a lot of disappointment for the US in this swim competition.
There was a lot of greatness. There was a lot
of triumph. There was, you know, absolute transcendence from Katie Ladecci,
(26:16):
you know, the fifteen hundred and the eight hundred and
the four by two hundred. But but you know, there
were some disappointments, and not just you know, for people
that we kind of had an eye on as up
and comers, but for people who had proven themselves previously.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Simone Biles twenty seven, Katie Ladeci twenty seven more likely
to be in Los Angeles in your opinion, you.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
Know, they Simone Biles, you know, I think it's sick
of answering that question. I think Katie Ladeci's sick of
answering that question. You know, they're both twenty. I think
they were born within three or four days of each other.
They came into these games dan as arguably the two
greatest ever in their respective sports, and they emerge from
these games, you know, only furnishing those legacies. I mean,
(27:01):
what they've done. And you know at twenty seven, which
there have been exceptions, and it's been changing over the years,
you know, as athletes and these sports become professionalized, extending
their careers. But you know that there was a time
when twenty seven was geriatric in these sports and they're
not just winning, right, they're still dominating. So you know,
(27:23):
why wouldn't they do it? Only because you would have
to imagine it's going to take so much out of them.
If these next games, right were back in Beijing, or
you know, they were in Stockholm, if they were anywhere
other than Los Angeles in the United States, I would say, yeah,
I think that's this is a good way to go out, right,
(27:44):
and you've got your records, your legacy is on question.
But there are going to be so many opportunities.
Speaker 13 (27:50):
A lot of.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
A lot of money attached to those two going into
the next Olympics. Though that that has to play a factor.
Speaker 9 (27:58):
Well, yeah, that's what I'm saying. I think there's going
to be, especially being in the US. But you know,
is it as if though there isn't gonna be money
even if they walk away Now, I don't know, I
don't know. I think there. I mean, obviously there will be,
but I think it's a different order of magnitude if
we've got those games in the US, and I mean,
if they're competing in those games in four years.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Give me the Paris Review of Paris as a host city.
Speaker 9 (28:25):
I mean, look, I wasn't there in nineteen twenty four
Dans last time they had the Olympics, or in nineteen
oh four or nineteen hundred the first time, I should say,
those were the two previous occasions on which Paris played
host of the Olympics. Look, I don't want to jinx it.
We still got a full week to go. A lot
can happen in the last week. But you know, when
(28:46):
we talk about these things in terms of logistics, in
terms of you know, putting on a good show, I
think you know, they're getting an A plus or you know,
whatever the French equivalent in the school system is. You know,
it was kind of crazy right to roll the dice
on that opening ceremony down the set. It was such
a massive, over the top production and there was, you know,
(29:10):
a very good likelihood it was going to rain on
their parade, and of course it did. But they you know,
they they like to take their chances, and they did.
And so far, I mean, you know, I think about this,
If things weren't going well, you've got the media of
the world coming together here in Paris, you'd be hearing
about it. And so far I think you know it's
been a spectacular backdrop to some great competition.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
All right, before we say goodbye, you took nine years
of French when you were in grade school, in high school,
So why don't you bid us a doo with a
little bit of French from Paris.
Speaker 9 (29:44):
I could sing some of the Marseilles that would be
along San font De God, don't make me do it, Damn,
I'll just say au vois mercy.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Dan.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I'm going to give you a bronze for that, more
than I deserve. Yes, that's true. Be safe over there,
Thanks for joining us.
Speaker 9 (30:05):
Love you.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Jeremy Shah from The Mother Show over there covering the
Olympic Games. All right, final results of the poll. Question
what we learn, what's in store tomorrow? We're going to
try to accomplish that. Sports history will have that for
you as well. A couple more best and worst of
the weekend, like this one from Jeff in Indianapolis.
Speaker 12 (30:27):
Maybe you best and worst, I'll give you my I'll
give you my my worst first, because I think my
best is a lot more important. My worst is the
three on three Olympic basketball is horrible. I was thinking
about you watching over the weekend about your rants of
these guys carrying the ball, and it was amazing watching
(30:47):
these guys carry the ball extra steps. It was just
just awful. I think one guys actually walked more than
a marching band. Okay, my my best is D ran
a segment. I think it was Friday or Saturday evening,
I forget which it was called in the Company of Heroes.
Did you happen to catch that?
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Yes? I do. Yes.
Speaker 12 (31:09):
So for anybody who potentially missed that, google it and
watch it. It'll make you smile, it'll make you cry
a little bit. It was really really well done.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
And a former NFL player, Donny Edwards is the one
who heads this up. Where taking these veterans who were
there and served in World War Two there Normandy. Omaha,
it's very very moving. And I've said this before when
I went over there and I kept telling my wife
for over a year, I said, Honey, I've got to
(31:38):
go to Normandy. I have to. I don't know why
I have to go. And so she surprised me and
then planned a trip and it was even greater than
I thought. I was reading books. I had to go.
I don't know why. It was hitting me like that.
But I had to go walk the beach, went to
these different museums over there, you meet with people, go
(32:04):
to the US Cemetery.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
It is.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Spectacularly moving, prideful, sad like so many emotions hit you.
But when you look from where and I did this,
I went into the water to look up where these
machine guns were mounted. And these are eighteen nineteen year
old kids and they're getting off these boats and you
(32:33):
can't even really see the machine guns, and the way
they had them set up. They angled their bullets in.
They didn't shoot straight ahead in case they missed. They
wanted to angle them to make sure that they were
hitting as many Americans as possible. I can't imagine getting
off one of those boats and you see people around
you dying and you just had to keep going, keep going,
(32:56):
keep going, keep going. But they were so disguised up
here in these hills where they had little caves cut out,
and they were there just firing away as fast as
they could to kill as many as they could. But
to be able to go and witness that, to see that,
(33:18):
to feel that who never leave you, never ever leave you.
Well take a break. Last call for phone calls right
after this.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific

in sports history. What we learn final results of the
You know, I had some numbers here from DraftKings. I
(33:58):
didn't even get to which NFL team will score the
least amount of points in the regular season this season?
According to DraftKings, the least amount, Marvin, I'll start.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
With you, Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
They are fourth on this list. Paulie Ah, Arizona Cardinals. Nope,
They're expected to be a lot better than people think.
Todd I better be wrong. Denver their second great Seaton Jaguars.
(34:35):
You're Patriots. I'm sorry who you're Patriots? The Patriots, and
then the Broncos, followed by the Raiders, Panthers, Steelers, Titans.
Boy if the Steelers are not scoring points with Russ
(34:56):
there and Justin Fields. Oh yes, Also, here's something the
highest total passing yards in a single game this season?
Will it be over four hundred and ninety yards? The
over under is four to ninety and a half. Is
anybody gonna throw for more than four hundred and ninety
(35:18):
yards in a game?
Speaker 7 (35:20):
Paul, I'll say yes, and I'll throw out the name.
I'm gonna go Matthew Stafford old school. He hasn't done
that in a while. Throwback game, Yeah, throwback game. He
was a king of those.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Will somebody throw for forty touchdown passes this year? The
over under is thirty nine and a half. Anybody think
forty touchdowns? No takers? There? Will anybody throw for five
thousand yards this season? The over under four nine five
ozho and a half. Marvin, are you saying we'll have
(35:53):
a five thousand yard passer?
Speaker 4 (35:55):
I think there's gonna be two.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Okay, Oh, it'll be one. Uh, but it'll be two. Okay,
all right, bloop bloop, I got that for you. Uh
Toby in Kentucky, Hi, Tob, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7 (36:11):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 13 (36:12):
It's uh five five five six on a good day.
Speaker 10 (36:15):
Uh one sixty.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (36:18):
I wanted to talk a story about riding running with
the bulls and going to a bullfight. Okay, uh it
started in California when I rode a couple of bulls
with some cowboys created for.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
The drenalne rush.
Speaker 13 (36:28):
Ever, so I decided the next year to go to
Spain with my brother for his high school graduation. He's
ten years younger. Went to Spain portgal a couple weeks
decided to end in Pamplona running with the bulls, and
my mom said, well, if you don't come back, you
should have come back. And uh so we got we
ran and we started out. We took a course earlier
in the day with a guy who'd been running for
(36:49):
like years for safety, and when we started, we end
up running, and we ended up making it about halfway through.
And since my brother is a little bit younger, not
as fast he bulls were coming up. We were in
a back into a corner against a burger king of
all places in Spain. Uh and yeah right, a bull
(37:10):
was one of the six They have six like torri bulls,
the meat ones, and then they have six cattle bulls
that sort of hurt them. And when this one was coming,
he was coming right at us and swooped his horns
probably within a good two feet of our stomachs, you know,
when we were sucking them in and uh real coming
to Jesus moment right there. But we ended up after
(37:31):
it ran passed, we foll end up following it into
the arena. And then later that night, the same bulls
that run are the ones that they fight. And I,
you know, I've never been to a bull fight. We're like, okay,
went so, I didn't know that they weakened the bulls
before they fight them. So they come out and it's like,
looks like Samurai gear on horses, and they weakened the
(37:55):
bull a couple of times by stabbing it, and then
they've let it fight, and I was, man, that's not
a spare.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
Right, Well, that's a little bit too much detail there
to Yeah, we get necessary detail, yea, necessary, We get
the idea those warriors in there. Todd said that was
a whopper of a story with the yeah, we might
make a team Bowl T shirt Team Bowl. Yeah, there's
Dames sports history, Paul, this is fun.
Speaker 7 (38:22):
Nineteen sixty, for the first time, two MLB managers were
traded for each other. Detroit traded Jimmy Dikes for Cleveland's
Joe Gordon no details on why or how. Let's see
this is fun. Mark McGuire nineteen nine to nine career
home run five hundred record for the fewest at bats
to the five hundred home run mark, and then of
course popular baseball commentator, oh just baseball commentator Alex Rodriguez.
(38:45):
In twenty thirteen, Bud Selig banned him from the league
for two hundred and thirteen games for taking foreign dancing
drugs illegal foreign dancing drugs. That number of games were
reduced to one sixty two.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
On this date. In twenty twelve, Usain Bolt won one
hundred meters at the London Olympics. The winning time yesterday
was what a little over nine point seven seconds? Bolt
won with nine point six three. I think, what is that?
A nine point so yeah, a tenth and a half maybe,
(39:22):
which is a lot. But Bolt won the gold medal.
Let's see final results of the pole question Seaton.
Speaker 4 (39:30):
Yeah, we got a.
Speaker 3 (39:30):
Couple of doozies in there.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Let's see.
Speaker 5 (39:34):
You.
Speaker 3 (39:35):
Why isn't it coming up for me? There we go,
I'm rooting for the White Sox to keep losing. Is
now at eighty six percent, We're closing at eighty six percent.
John Rahm had the worst weekend and Scottie Scheffler's had
the best weekend.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Okay, yeah, sounds good.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
Scotty keeps winning.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Let's see, we'll talk to Scott Hansen. He's working for
the Olympics NBC. He's got the Gold Zone with Andrew
Siciliana and Jared Payton older son covering the Bears, so
we'll talk to him as well coming up tomorrow. Let's
go around the room. What we learned in the program? Todd,
I'm gonna start with you. Did you learn anything Tod did?
Speaker 6 (40:14):
When you're not favorite of silver or even bronze, medal
can feel like winning gold, especially if you're going up
against Biles.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Or Ledicky Seat, O'Connor, Jeremy Shpp might speak languages, maybe.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Marvin, what did you learn today?
Speaker 4 (40:27):
Ireland is now an Olympic powerhouse?
Speaker 2 (40:30):
Yes, over under? I think it was two and a
half and they would have seven Olympic gold medals of
this morning. Yeah, Olympic medals. Paulie, what did you learn
to impressively?
Speaker 7 (40:40):
Jeremy Shapp took nine years of French but doesn't speak French.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Todd, what did I learn today?
Speaker 6 (40:45):
If you don't give him all the questions ahead of time.
Mark Sindres gets flustered in an interview.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
He's like Todd, never gave me those topics.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Apposed to be just about kickoffs and young quarterback.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
You weren't supposed to give him topics he should know.
Speaker 6 (41:00):
Oh yes, I'm gotta give a specific questions. Just give
him a few when we learned.

(41:26):
has been the Dan Patrick Show. We'll talk to you
tomorrow
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Final Hour in this Monday Dan and the Dant Dan
Patrick Show, we'll give you our best and worst of
the weekend coming up more of your phone calls as well.
We say good morning to our newest affiliate, It's Sports
Radio ninety five seven Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, Iowa, home
with the Hawkeys and Iowa Sports and our thanks to
(00:24):
Doug Wagner, the program director making this happen all right
eight seven to seven three DP show email address Dpadanpatrick
dot com, Twitter handle a TP show. The final hour
poll question is going to be what set o connor?
We got a few of them working here, Dan, let
me update you on all of tho. All right, as
a matter of fact, let's see rooting for the White
(00:46):
Sox to win asap or keep losing? Right now, that one.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Is holding strong at eighty five percent of the audience
want them to keep losing, mean spirited? Who had the
worst weekend? John Ram about forty percent of that just
behind them or the White Sox and Michigan Football, Michigan Football.
And second, as a matter of fact, there and then
who had the best weekend? It is a dead even
tie between Scotty Scheffler and Noah Ales.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Not ironically, how about that?
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Okay, Yeah, Scotty Scheffler was listed at plus six thousand
to win the event with five holes to play, and
rightfully so, because it looked like John ram all he
I do is par the back nine and he was
going to win the gold. Well he fell apart. Scotty
Scheffler played great. That's one of those where you want
to see somebody win an event, not somebody lose an event.
(01:34):
So you won it, and you can make the argument
John Rohm lost it, but Scotty Scheffler shot at sixty two.
I mean all the great rounds of golf. Now, once again,
when you play at the Masters, US Open, British Open, PGA,
you're playing for yourself, you're playing at the Olympics, and
now you're playing for your country. While you're playing for yourself,
(01:57):
you're going to get the gold medal, but you're presenting
your country. And I think that took Now. I can't
speak for Scotty Scheffler, but it took on more of
an importance because the gravity of I'm playing for my
country and the reason why I felt this was because
I watched Scotti Scheffler. He's won majors. He didn't get
(02:17):
emotional like he did yesterday. You'd stand on the podium
and you hear the anth hand over your heart, he's
singing the anthem, and all of a sudden, you're in
a foreign country and you're probably thinking of everything, millions
of things flashing in front of you, of what this means,
(02:38):
watching the Olympics when you're growing up, that I ever
think I'd win a gold medal. I mean he might
have thought, hey, I can win a green jacket. I
don't know if I could ever win a gold medal,
but he got that chance, like Novak Djokovic, the same thing.
He's accomplished all of these things, as decorated as any
tennis player in history. It's the one thing he didn't have,
(02:59):
gold medal, and he was consumed by it. It brought
him to his knees, emotional, you know, grabbing a hold
of his family because they knew how much it meant.
That's where you can try to script this, but you can't.
That's what makes sports so great. Because as much as
Scotti Scheffler probably thought all right, I'll get up there,
(03:21):
get the podium to myself, and then they'll give me
the gold medal, and then they play the anthem and
then I fly home. And then all of a sudden,
you get up there. And I've done this before in
a you know, a much lesser degree, but winning a
Sports Emmy where you go, all right, just get up there,
thank people, get the trophy and walk off, and then
(03:42):
all of a sudden, you get up there and you
realize what it means to you, and it hits you,
and it hit me hard. First time I won one,
I was like, oh my god, I can't put words together,
trust me, guys, Danet, oh like it it hit me,
you know when I won my Sports Emmy. But individual
(04:03):
Sports Jemmy there, Yeah, Which one of you guys will
cry if we when we win a Sports Emmy? Marvin?
Will you cry when we get up there?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Easily? I am the black big for meal.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
That's a shirt.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 5 (04:28):
Great line, I'm crying right now.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Okay, Todd, would you cry if we won the Sports Timmy?
Speaker 6 (04:37):
I would be very excited, but I don't think I'd
be brought to tears for some reason.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, Seating, would you cry? I'm a crier, but I
don't think I would know. Paulie, Oh yeah, you're not crying.
Speaker 7 (04:46):
I would like to say no, and the assumption is no.
But like you said, things can surprise you in life.
I bet Scotti Scheffler when when he won it. You're
you're totally right now, you're saying it was it's not
normal for him to win this. He was putting his
stuff back in his bag when Tommy Fleetwood missed the
putt and he and his kindie goes, hey, thanks, like
my five little bro hug, and he starts putting stuff away,
grabbing his phone, and then fifteen minutes later it's like
(05:07):
he's bawling his eyes out.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Yes to Paully might say, this is very emotional.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I myself, I would be emotional because of what that
would represent to all of us here. But yes, you
can sit there and go, oh yeah, I'll be fine. Yeah,
I won't get emotional here. Then you get up there
and all of a sudden, it's quiet and everybody's staring
at you, and you're like, I got to put words
(05:32):
to I get paid to put words together. Except for
if you went into you know, Hall of Fame. Those
kinds of things I'm a mess. I'm terrible. So that's
why I'm going to have you guys speak when we
win that Sports Emmy. You guys are going to do
this speaking. I'm not going to say anything, but.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I've had the same speech since before COVID.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I know it's been a while, been a while, but
I did wonder about, you know, the twenty twenty five
Ryder Cup with all the great golfers that we've had.
You know, Keegan Bradley going to be the captain there,
but he got Scheffler, Bryce and de Shambeau, Xander Schaffley,
Colin Moore, Cowlong, Wyndham Clark, Sahi, Tha Gala. These are
(06:11):
all really, really really good golfers and feel a whole
lot better after we got humbled in the Ryder Cup
this last time, now on our soil in twenty twenty five.
All right, we got our pole question for the final hour,
Let's go around the room. Best and worst of the weekend.
Let me start with the Black Dick, Vermeal, Marvin, your
best and worst of the weekend?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
All right, best of the weekend.
Speaker 8 (06:32):
Anthony Edward's going twenty six points in only seventeen minutes
as the usbat Puerto Rico and then worse at the
weekend our men the three on three, they got eliminated.
They lost twenty one to six to the Netherlands. So
no gold medal for Jimmer.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, Jimmer got hurt. Jimmer got hurt. I think maybe
tore some muscles there, But I don't remember playing time
being this much of a discussion. I saw a topic
bar on the Mothership that said, you know, is Steve
Kerr creating this drama because he didn't play Jason Tatum.
Steve Kerr is as savvy as anybody I've ever met
(07:09):
when it comes to coaching. I don't think he goes,
you know what, let me create something here a little bit. Yeah,
I mean he benched Joe el Embiid. But can you
remember any other Olympics where we were discussing or trying
to debate about the playing time. I get it, Jason Tatum,
great player, great year, and he sat down and you
(07:32):
didn't get to play. This is social media, is what
this is. Because I didn't go, oh my god, as
long as you're winning and I got somebody out there
getting buckets, Ben, I don't need to put you in
This isn't you know, participatory trophy time. We got to win,
and I'm gonna win with who I think deserves to
(07:52):
be out there, the right person to be out there.
I mean, the players should be fine with this. What
did Mike Shrushevski say. He coached a team that probably
had as many egos as any other team in the
history of basketball. He was there with the Dream Team
as an assistant coach, and what did he say. I
(08:14):
made them take a pledge that we were going to
be all in on this, a pledge like we're going
to be collective here. This isn't about playing time. This
is about We're going to take a pledge.
Speaker 9 (08:32):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
This is. Let's win, and if Steve Kerr wins, then
I don't think this is going to be a topic
of conversation. It shouldn't be, and I'm surprised it is
this much. But it feels like, once again the time
of the year, what there is to discuss, what there
is to debate? So factor that in, okay, I let
(08:53):
you behind the curtain. Is this manufactured? In my opinion
it is, But this is the debate shows going. We
gotta have something to talk about here. How about Jason
Tatum not playing. Oh, Steve Kerr trying to you know,
mess up things here. You know, I don't think Game
Bay got upset with Joellenbiid being bench, did they? Well?
Speaker 7 (09:13):
Yeah, Pauling, I agree with you, and I think you're
like ninety percent right on what you're saying. But I
consider myself a pretty knowledgeable basketball guy, but not an expert,
no way an expert. When I see Derek White playing
and Jason Tatum not playing.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
They don't play the same position.
Speaker 7 (09:27):
I understand, but I, in my mind think Jason Tatum
is drastically better than Derek White week to week as
a basketball player.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
So I think it.
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Needs to be explained to people. When you see it now,
there is tons of reaction. I have the same reaction, like, Okay,
I know they don't play the same position, but the
way Jason Tatum plays his position is really really good.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
But I'd rather have Kevin Durant than Jason Tatum.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
And I'm fine with that. I think that, But I
think a lot of people who are casual basketball fans
would ask for an explanation, and in a measured way.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
That's how I But have we done this before?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
When's the Lancet Olympics, where you go lead a big
controversy over playing time.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
I would say go back, and this is a long,
long time ago when John Thompson selected that Olympic team
and he said, trust me, I know what kind of
guys I want, and he took Dan Marley, who we
didn't know, over really good players.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
But that's taking somebody, not the playing time.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
That's the last time I was telling.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
About playing time. And that's where we've manufactured this because
somehow somebody wants to make Steve Kerr look bad or
that he doesn't like Jason Tatum. Draymond Green on his
podcast came out and said that his coach, you know,
should have played Jason Tatum. Well, that led me to
believe exactly what I'm believing is this is about getting clicks.
(10:41):
This is about if Draymond said, hey, trust Steve Kerr.
He's one of the great coaches in NBA history. Nobody
cares about that. But if he's like, hey, you know what,
he should have played him, Yes.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
It's almost like Steve Kurr isn't getting any credit for
being a good coach because of the team he coaches.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Yes, and that happens So I mean Chuck Daley didn't
get credit for the dream team.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Who couldn't win with that Warriors lineup? Who couldn't win
with that team? That's Mark, that's Mark Jackson's team that
he should have gotten all of those rings?
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah, who couldn't do that?
Speaker 3 (11:13):
He has a little bit of that, And it's sort
of carrying over into the Olympics where's he's not respected
by some people as a coach.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
If Pop did this, I don't think people would have
a problem with this. No, I don't If Phil Jackson
did this, I don't think people would have a problem.
Speaker 4 (11:29):
Yes, Mark, we also love to complain because the US
they're winning all their games comfortably, and we still have
something to complain about.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
We want something to complain about. These debate shows. We're
gonna remember Caitlyn Clark. Well, nobody said anything about Caitlyn Clark.
Why because the team is great, they didn't need her
and she might be sitting on the bench and then
you know what that would have created. Why did she played?
Oh are they dissing her by keeping her on the
(12:00):
bed like this is? This is we're in the entertainment business.
Little girls want to see her play? Yeah, I get it.
We're creating something here, Paul. Best and worst of the weekend,
I got two.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
I don't have a worst. I got two best. I
gon know.
Speaker 7 (12:18):
USA swimmer Bobby Fink back to back Olympics with Olympic
gold in the fifteen hundred and he got a world record.
Great job by him. And then Saint Lucia, the small
country Julian Alfred won Wednesday hundred meter women's gold medal.
They were going crazy in Saint Lucia. I think it's
less than two hundred thousand entire country. Julian Alfred with
the gold.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Todd Best and Worst of the weekend.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
Giants pitcher Blake Snell never completed eight innings over his
nine year career through no hit of Friday Night and
the three nothing went at the Reds. Good job, Blake Snell.
Worst of the weekend. Staying with baseball, Blue Jay's manager
John Schneider intentionally walks Aaron Judge in the second inning Salday,
Nobody's on base, two outs, forty thousand plus booing at
Yankee Stadium. Judge becomes the first player intentionally walked with
(13:00):
the bases empty in the first twinnings of a game
in the past half century.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
How about this one the last Yankee to be walked
intentionally three times in a game after you know or
before Aaron Judge. If you said Bernie Williams g would
be correct.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
Let's stop.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, yeah, here comes here comes that? What stat of
the day Seaton Best and Worst of the weekend.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
I'm going with a best and it is the country
of Ireland. Daniel Wiffin, the swimmer, getting a lot of attention. Right,
He's picked himself up a gold out of nowhere, got
a bronze as well.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Total medals for Ireland at the Olympic Games between nineteen
sixty and nineteen ninety two they had six, and all
that time, the whole country had six medals. This week,
the first week of the Paris Games, they've had seven.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I think the over utter was two and a half.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
They had more medals in one week than they had
in thirty two years. The word powerhouse is being thrown around.
It's a little early for that, but I'm just saying,
don't sleep on Ireland.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Let's go right, yeah, okay, power house Okay, h Noah
in Pennsylvania, Hi A, Noah, thanks for holding best and
worst of the weekend.
Speaker 10 (14:28):
Hey, Dan, so I got a short story to put
a previous topic the rest and two best of the weekend,
like Paulie So, like you mentioned earlier, shut up and
Spanish just pronounced kayat. And I didn't learn that from
going on the internet or anything or in the schoolroom.
I learned that from ninth grade basketball when my teammate
(14:50):
was chirping to the rap about one of the calls
and his mom was in the stands going Kiatajonatan Kyrite.
That always made me and my mom crack up. Tell
them that story. But so the first one. My first
best of the weekend is Steven Superman winning a bronze
(15:12):
in the pommel horse, as a tremendous gymnast that he is.
And my second best is Katie Bladeki winning her fourth
goals in the eight hundred meters freestyle race. That's incredible.
And the fact that she hasn't given a firm I
believe she hasn't given a firm yes or no to
(15:32):
participating in a fist.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
You shouldn't give any indication, thank you. Noan Her and
si oone Biles don't owe anybody anything. I don't want
you to make a decision now enjoy it. Why now
we want to let's fast track this to twenty twenty
eight in La. Just enjoy it. You've earned that, both
(15:55):
of you have. You don't owe anybody an explanation for
any of this.
Speaker 6 (15:59):
Yes, it's bad enough when they ask a coach or
player are you coming back next season? This is four
years from now, so it's kind of insane.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Well, I think Simone Biles brought up that, hey, when
you get married, when you're having a kid, Hey you
had a kid, when you have in your next kid?
And we sort of have that mindset when it comes
to athletics as well, Hey you won uh are you
going to compete in the next Olympics. It's it's constant
moving forward and nodding allowed, not allowing these athletes coaches
(16:28):
to kind of revel in the moment there. And I
agree with Simone Biles, and I don't know if Katie
Leadecki felt the same way, but Simone's like, you know,
let's just enjoy this. How about we take a break.
We will talk to Jeremy Shapp from the Mothership. He'll
join us from Paris. Coming up. More of your phone
calls as well. We're back after this.

Couple of phone calls, then we'll get to ESPN reporter
Jeremy Sham. He will join us from Paris. Matt in Virginia.
Hey Matt, what's on your mind today? Thanks for holding.
Speaker 12 (17:42):
Good morning Dan. My mess on the weekend was Devin
Hester getting into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and
especially his speech where he highlighted other return guys like
Brian Mitchell and Josh Cribbs and supporting their induction as well.
(18:02):
I just wanted to see what you thought the future
was for guys like that. I'm a Washington fan, so
I saw Mitchell for a decade and what a difference
he made. I mean, there's only one guy in NFL
history with moral purpose yards than Mitchell, and that's Jerry Rice.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Yeah. I hope that. You know it's you're asking these writers,
these voters, you know, to factor in other things because
you know it takes takes a long time for them
to go, well, the specificity of somebody's role, like you're
a special you know, Matthew Slater, is he a Hall
of Famer? I mean he might play six ' ten
(18:43):
plays a game. First Team All Pro comes down to
a place kicker like Adam Vinitari. Yes, Morton Anderson, yes,
but it take It's taken a while for them to
be recognized. A punter taken a while. It took Ray
guy for a long time. But you have to be
(19:04):
the absolute best. And I think it takes research to
realize what Brian Mitchell did and how dangerous, how valuable
he was. But Devin Hester, he set the bar and
now you're going to be compared to Devin Hester. And
that might be the tricky part here, but I hope
I just know that how backbreaking that could be opening kickoff.
(19:27):
It's like Ricky Henderson hitting a leadoff home run in
a game, like it's oh my god, we're already behind
and it just breaks your back or gain. You just
tie the score, you kick off and they take it back.
I mean, just those guys are so few and far between. Yeah, Pauline, I.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
Know we talk about Dione Sanders a lot on the show,
but if you took away his career as a defensive back,
he's flirting with the Hall of Fame as a return
man and he didn't return all of them, but he
returned a lot. He had six punt returns for touchdown
and three kick off returns for touchdown. Out He would
have to do a lot more work there, but it
shows that just his return game was flirting with all
(20:06):
time like Cordero.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Patterson, to me is one of the more dangerous guys,
versatile guys. Now is he a Hall of Famer? Probably not,
but man, it was dangerous. Like you know, when he's
back there, it's all you know. Now all of a sudden,
it changes. But I don't know if you're going to
get more kick returns, and I mean I hope we do.
(20:28):
I hope we get touchdowns. I hope we get excitement
there instead of seven yards, twelve yards, you know, maybe
thirty yards.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Yes, yes, but then we're going to say, but that
was in the dynamic.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
As yeah, you're probably right about that. All right, more
phone calls coming up. We spoke with Jeremy Shapp earlier
this morning in Paris, and I started off by asking
the dan Ads, beginning with Todd, whether or not they
thought that Jeremy Shapp of the Mothership could speak fluent French.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Yes, Seaton, one of the many languages he speaks. Yes, Marvin, Yes,
Paulie probably majored in English. But yes, I'm gonna say,
no way.
Speaker 9 (21:10):
Are you asking you?
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Now?
Speaker 9 (21:11):
Do I get to yes, I'm going to invoke my
Fifth Amendment privileges. I did take nine years of French,
but it made virtually no impact on me. I try,
I do put in the time and the effort, but
usually it just gets me into trouble. I joke, I
know just enough to be dangerous.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Dan nine years, nine years.
Speaker 9 (21:35):
Fourth grade through twelfth grade. In fact, I went to
a junior high school in New York that was primarily
a French school. Basically every other kid spoke French, and
so I was already too far behind. But I blame
my teachers.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
They were yeah, cool, Yeah, of course punishment. Let's look
back on Sunday. The biggest story of Sunday Djokovic, Scheffler,
Noah Asles other no.
Speaker 9 (22:01):
Lyles' is the biggest story. It's the one hundred meters dash.
It's you know, historically one of the marquee events at
the Olympic Games. Golf is something I still don't really
associate with the Olympics, frankly. And it goes the same
for tennis. I mean, they've been part of the programs
now for some time, tennis more than golf. But you know,
(22:22):
those are sports that have their other moments. When you're
talking about the Olympics, you're talking about Jesse Owens and
Bob Hayes and Jackie Joyner Kersey and Donovan Bailey and
Hussein Bolt and this is the you know, the race
that confers the status is the fastest man in the world,
the fastest human on the planet. And it wasn't just
(22:44):
that he won. It was a spectacular race. And you
know how it goes to the Olympics and you know,
you know these things are spread out all over city
some cases all over country and you don't get to everything.
But last night I went up to this God de France,
just you know, outside of the peripheriq North Past and
San Deni because I wanted to see one hundred meter
dash in person. I'd never seen it in person before.
(23:04):
I'd seen the four by one hundred a few times,
and and the way they build up the height, the
drama as the race is about to start. I mean,
it's you know, it's like it's like when Roy Jones
used to fight or Mike Tyson used to fight. They really,
you know, made it a show. And by the time
that race starts and you've been sitting there, and you know,
(23:25):
I was enjoying the other stuff too. You know, I'm
a big fan of the hammer throw, but you are,
you're you're ready for that, you know, ten seconds and
it was a spectacular race. And we were all standing
there just like the runners themselves at the end, wondering
who'd want that's a great race.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
I mentioned to the audience. I mentioned to the dan
Ets quite a few times. One of the greatest moments
I ever had at the Olympics was in London with
Usain Bolt and watching what he was running the two
hundred meters. TV spoils you because it keeps everything in frame.
When you're there watching, you don't, I mean, you get
the true sense of just how fast somebody is on TV.
(24:04):
You're like, wow, they're all kind of running together, and
there it is. It's over.
Speaker 9 (24:07):
It flattens the whole thing. It flattens the whole thing.
And you know, as I said, I've been to the
four by one hundred a couple of times. I remember seeing,
you know, Donovan Balley's team Team Canada win in ninety
six in Atlanta. The US often you know, messes up
the pass, uh, but the one hundred and to see
those fastest humans on the planet and you know, I
(24:30):
think it was nine seven, nine to nine, nine to
one all of the guys. We're talking about twelve one
hundredths of a second separating first place and last place
and not in no lyles having to overcome a tough
start to win the race. And you know, it's been
(24:54):
a long drought for America in the sprints. This is
you know, an event that we've dominated since the revive
of the Olympic Games in eighteen ninety six in Athens,
Dan and then all the great names and that, you know,
the Eddie Tolans and the Ralph Metcalts and the Jesse
owens Is and Harrison Dillard's and we could go on
right Ay's and Hines. It's uh, it was. It was
(25:19):
really exciting.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Talking to Jeremy Shapper the mothership joining us from Paris,
USA swimming in Australia. Do we not like each other?
Is it a true rivalry?
Speaker 9 (25:32):
I mean it always has been, you know. I you know,
I'm not around the swimmers asking them about you know,
do you know, uh, you know what you feel about
this person personally, et cetera, et cetera. But it's always
been one of the great rivalries in swimming. And I
think you know, you know, I'm not sure the current
medal count going back all the way beginning, but if
(25:53):
you're to ask me, who are the two nations that
have dominated swimming over the last one hundred and thirty years,
it's Australia, right and the United States. The United States
number one, Australia number two. And you know, there was
a lot of disappointment for the US in this swim competition.
There was a lot of greatness. There was a lot
of triumph. There was, you know, absolute transcendence from Katie Ladecci,
(26:16):
you know, the fifteen hundred and the eight hundred and
the four by two hundred. But but you know, there
were some disappointments, and not just you know, for people
that we kind of had an eye on as up
and comers, but for people who had proven themselves previously.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Simone Biles twenty seven, Katie Ladeci twenty seven more likely
to be in Los Angeles in your opinion, you.
Speaker 9 (26:38):
Know, they Simone Biles, you know, I think it's sick
of answering that question. I think Katie Ladeci's sick of
answering that question. You know, they're both twenty. I think
they were born within three or four days of each other.
They came into these games dan as arguably the two
greatest ever in their respective sports, and they emerge from
these games, you know, only furnishing those legacies. I mean,
(27:01):
what they've done. And you know at twenty seven, which
there have been exceptions, and it's been changing over the years,
you know, as athletes and these sports become professionalized, extending
their careers. But you know that there was a time
when twenty seven was geriatric in these sports and they're
not just winning, right, they're still dominating. So you know,
(27:23):
why wouldn't they do it? Only because you would have
to imagine it's going to take so much out of them.
If these next games, right were back in Beijing, or
you know, they were in Stockholm, if they were anywhere
other than Los Angeles in the United States, I would say, yeah,
I think that's this is a good way to go out, right,
(27:44):
and you've got your records, your legacy is on question.
But there are going to be so many opportunities.
Speaker 13 (27:50):
A lot of.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
A lot of money attached to those two going into
the next Olympics. Though that that has to play a factor.
Speaker 9 (27:58):
Well, yeah, that's what I'm saying. I think there's going
to be, especially being in the US. But you know,
is it as if though there isn't gonna be money
even if they walk away Now, I don't know, I
don't know. I think there. I mean, obviously there will be,
but I think it's a different order of magnitude if
we've got those games in the US, and I mean,
if they're competing in those games in four years.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Give me the Paris Review of Paris as a host city.
Speaker 9 (28:25):
I mean, look, I wasn't there in nineteen twenty four
Dans last time they had the Olympics, or in nineteen
oh four or nineteen hundred the first time, I should say,
those were the two previous occasions on which Paris played
host of the Olympics. Look, I don't want to jinx it.
We still got a full week to go. A lot
can happen in the last week. But you know, when
(28:46):
we talk about these things in terms of logistics, in
terms of you know, putting on a good show, I
think you know, they're getting an A plus or you know,
whatever the French equivalent in the school system is. You know,
it was kind of crazy right to roll the dice
on that opening ceremony down the set. It was such
a massive, over the top production and there was, you know,
(29:10):
a very good likelihood it was going to rain on
their parade, and of course it did. But they you know,
they they like to take their chances, and they did.
And so far, I mean, you know, I think about this,
If things weren't going well, you've got the media of
the world coming together here in Paris, you'd be hearing
about it. And so far I think you know it's
been a spectacular backdrop to some great competition.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
All right, before we say goodbye, you took nine years
of French when you were in grade school, in high school,
So why don't you bid us a doo with a
little bit of French from Paris.
Speaker 9 (29:44):
I could sing some of the Marseilles that would be
along San font De God, don't make me do it, Damn,
I'll just say au vois mercy.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Dan.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I'm going to give you a bronze for that, more
than I deserve. Yes, that's true. Be safe over there,
Thanks for joining us.
Speaker 9 (30:05):
Love you.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Jeremy Shah from The Mother Show over there covering the
Olympic Games. All right, final results of the poll. Question
what we learn, what's in store tomorrow? We're going to
try to accomplish that. Sports history will have that for
you as well. A couple more best and worst of
the weekend, like this one from Jeff in Indianapolis.
Speaker 12 (30:27):
Maybe you best and worst, I'll give you my I'll
give you my my worst first, because I think my
best is a lot more important. My worst is the
three on three Olympic basketball is horrible. I was thinking
about you watching over the weekend about your rants of
these guys carrying the ball, and it was amazing watching
(30:47):
these guys carry the ball extra steps. It was just
just awful. I think one guys actually walked more than
a marching band. Okay, my my best is D ran
a segment. I think it was Friday or Saturday evening,
I forget which it was called in the Company of Heroes.
Did you happen to catch that?
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Yes? I do. Yes.
Speaker 12 (31:09):
So for anybody who potentially missed that, google it and
watch it. It'll make you smile, it'll make you cry
a little bit. It was really really well done.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
And a former NFL player, Donny Edwards is the one
who heads this up. Where taking these veterans who were
there and served in World War Two there Normandy. Omaha,
it's very very moving. And I've said this before when
I went over there and I kept telling my wife
for over a year, I said, Honey, I've got to
(31:38):
go to Normandy. I have to. I don't know why
I have to go. And so she surprised me and
then planned a trip and it was even greater than
I thought. I was reading books. I had to go.
I don't know why. It was hitting me like that.
But I had to go walk the beach, went to
these different museums over there, you meet with people, go
(32:04):
to the US Cemetery.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
It is.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Spectacularly moving, prideful, sad like so many emotions hit you.
But when you look from where and I did this,
I went into the water to look up where these
machine guns were mounted. And these are eighteen nineteen year
old kids and they're getting off these boats and you
(32:33):
can't even really see the machine guns, and the way
they had them set up. They angled their bullets in.
They didn't shoot straight ahead in case they missed. They
wanted to angle them to make sure that they were
hitting as many Americans as possible. I can't imagine getting
off one of those boats and you see people around
you dying and you just had to keep going, keep going,
(32:56):
keep going, keep going. But they were so disguised up
here in these hills where they had little caves cut out,
and they were there just firing away as fast as
they could to kill as many as they could. But
to be able to go and witness that, to see that,
(33:18):
to feel that who never leave you, never ever leave you.
Well take a break. Last call for phone calls right
after this.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
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 WAP.

five seven seater Rapids Iowa, Iowa City, home of the
Hawk Eyes, and also Raleigh, North Carolina Sports Radio one
o six point one FM. Let me see this day
in sports history. What we learn final results of the
You know, I had some numbers here from DraftKings. I
(33:58):
didn't even get to which NFL team will score the
least amount of points in the regular season this season?
According to DraftKings, the least amount, Marvin, I'll start.
Speaker 4 (34:10):
With you, Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
They are fourth on this list. Paulie Ah, Arizona Cardinals. Nope,
They're expected to be a lot better than people think.
Todd I better be wrong. Denver their second great Seaton Jaguars.
(34:35):
You're Patriots. I'm sorry who you're Patriots? The Patriots, and
then the Broncos, followed by the Raiders, Panthers, Steelers, Titans.
Boy if the Steelers are not scoring points with Russ
(34:56):
there and Justin Fields. Oh yes, Also, here's something the
highest total passing yards in a single game this season?
Will it be over four hundred and ninety yards? The
over under is four to ninety and a half. Is
anybody gonna throw for more than four hundred and ninety
(35:18):
yards in a game?
Speaker 7 (35:20):
Paul, I'll say yes, and I'll throw out the name.
I'm gonna go Matthew Stafford old school. He hasn't done
that in a while. Throwback game, Yeah, throwback game. He
was a king of those.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Will somebody throw for forty touchdown passes this year? The
over under is thirty nine and a half. Anybody think
forty touchdowns? No takers? There? Will anybody throw for five
thousand yards this season? The over under four nine five
ozho and a half. Marvin, are you saying we'll have
(35:53):
a five thousand yard passer?
Speaker 4 (35:55):
I think there's gonna be two.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
Okay, Oh, it'll be one. Uh, but it'll be two. Okay,
all right, bloop bloop, I got that for you. Uh
Toby in Kentucky, Hi, Tob, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7 (36:11):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 13 (36:12):
It's uh five five five six on a good day.
Speaker 10 (36:15):
Uh one sixty.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (36:18):
I wanted to talk a story about riding running with
the bulls and going to a bullfight. Okay, uh it
started in California when I rode a couple of bulls
with some cowboys created for.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
The drenalne rush.
Speaker 13 (36:28):
Ever, so I decided the next year to go to
Spain with my brother for his high school graduation. He's
ten years younger. Went to Spain portgal a couple weeks
decided to end in Pamplona running with the bulls, and
my mom said, well, if you don't come back, you
should have come back. And uh so we got we
ran and we started out. We took a course earlier
in the day with a guy who'd been running for
(36:49):
like years for safety, and when we started, we end
