Kirk d Cousins is expected to join us unless that
phone call has something to do with it, but he'll
join us a little bit later on. And Sean Casey
of the MLB Network, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Todd is doing this thing. And I can read Todd's face.
He's doing this cringey, quick talking, stammering thing. So I
hope it's good news. But usually if not.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Well just tell Todd to go in the other room
if he wants to talk to somebody kind.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Of entertaining from us for us.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
All right, So, yeah, that's what's happening here. It's a
meat Friday. In case you're wondering, and I know you are.
We have the traggers fired up, white bean, chicken, chili
and brats.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
Who has it better than we do?
Speaker 5 (00:46):
No body.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Stat of the Day brought to you by Panani America,
the official trading card, And so this program, Fritzy is everything.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
Yeah, something came up in Seown Casey's schedule.
Speaker 6 (00:56):
He asked if he can join us one segment later,
so instead of ten twenty, he will join us at
ten forty.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
By a zoom yeah, but that changes then the segment
we were going to do that, he's now joining us.
We were going to do the who had the best
week in the world of sports? Okay, I'll try to adapt.
Speaker 6 (01:14):
You're very good at adapting, though, thank you from your
Sports Center days. They throw things at you. You can
kind of go with the plug.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
I'm still trying to adapt to you.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Mets come back to eliminate the Brewers, Pete Alonzo with
the home run, and the Falcons over the Buccaneers in overtime.
Kirk Dee Cousins throws for five nine four touchdowns. Now,
I have some numbers here for you. Most passing yards
per game in primetime games active players. Yeah, I've got
(01:44):
the stat of course, most passing yards per game prime time, Marvin,
I'll start with you. Who has the most yards per
game primetime Matthew Stafford second, Paul dak Prescott. No, not
(02:06):
in the top five, Todd Peyton Manning. These are active plays.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
I was on the phone and I didn't hear that
first part.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
No, no, no, you're not on the phone.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I'm not a fat right now.
Speaker 6 (02:16):
No.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
No, I didn't say, well, why do you do that,
Josh Allen? Why not just say you know, I missed it.
You weren't on the phone.
Speaker 6 (02:27):
Right, but I know, but I was adjusting something off
of that conversation, so I didn't catch that beginning part.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Can't you just say multitasking?
Speaker 5 (02:36):
A lot of things going on?
Speaker 6 (02:37):
We got we're out, Danette, I got the whole kinds
of things open here on this on the laptop.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Something has to give it some point.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So Marvin and Paulie aren't busy. You're the only one
that's been. But they answered the question.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
I should pay attention more you. I don't know what
else to say. I don't pay attention closely enough to
the program. It says that if that makes everybody feel good,
then no, there we go. Can't you I just nail
it in and I don't. I'm just kind of nobody
said here we go, Page we go, book a guest
out of the way.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
You said you were on the phone, and that was
a lie.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
I know.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
But once the phone call is over that there's other
things that have to be figured out. And I got
all these different windows open, but I didn't catch um.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Okay, so Patrick Mahomes is uh the leader right now
most passing yards per game, primetime two hundred and eighty
five yards, Matthew Stafford to eighty one, Kirk Cousins to
eighty in thirty three games. Kirk Cousins has had the
same number of primetime games as Patrick Mahomes thirty three.
Justin Herbert's in there and Joe Burrow in there as well.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Stead of the day, stall of a day, stanatata day,
scant outa day.
Speaker 8 (03:49):
This is the start of the day.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Brought to you by Panniny America. Todd.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Who do you think has averaged the most passing yards
in primetime among active quarterbacks?
Speaker 6 (04:04):
It's probably not the right answer, but I had guess
Josh Allen, but he didn't really throw it for.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
That nun number. No, it's still Patrick Mahomes. I just
gave you all the answers.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
So you tricked me. Here you go.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
How did I trick you to see if I was
paying attention. You gave the answer, and I obviously didn't
hear the answer.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
But you were multitasking and probably on the phone.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
Okay, what we want to do on Friday?
Speaker 4 (04:31):
It was really harmless.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
I don't have a good response to that. I need
to pay more attention to work harder, just.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Half of it, that's all. Just pay attention, that's all.
Speaker 9 (04:48):
Patrick Mahomes, Okay, got it, all right, all right, come.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
On, come on, come on, we're here.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Come on, No nobody, nobody, Todd I.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I don't know if you're busy, but can you us
the poll question for hour two?
Speaker 5 (05:01):
I can give you the poll rush of four too.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
It is which MLB divisional series are you most excited for? Mets, Phillies, Padres, Dodgers, Royals, Yankees, Tigers, Guardians.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I'm gonna say Padre's Dodgers. I just I think you
got star power. I mean, you got a rivalry here.
Padres were what five and eight against the Dodgers this season?
Yankees they won five of seven against the Royals this year.
Phillies they won seven of the thirteen games against the Mets.
(05:35):
And the Guardians they won seven of the thirteen games
against Detroit. Did you see where Terry Francona, a year
after retiring, is now I'm going to manage the Reds.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I was.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I was really surprised at that.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I know that health wise that was an issue in Cleveland,
but that's a great I mean, he's one of my
favorite people. In a Hall of Fame. I was just
kind of surprised gonna do the Reds all right, Retirement
isn't a fun especially when you have that routine. Everything
about a baseball player manager routine when you get there,
(06:15):
what you do and a pregame meal, do this, do that,
do this at the end of the game on the
road or at home, you know, training camp, spring training,
and it's just so regimented there that you probably missed
that you sit around and go, what am I doing?
What am I going to do? But that's great. Terry
(06:37):
Francona back in baseball is great for baseball. Nick in California,
Good morning, Nick, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (06:47):
Good morning Dan, Thanks for taking my call. Good to
be on with you. So I'm watching last night's game
and I got three boys, two are in school, second grade,
in kindergarten, and it's way past their bedtime, and here
it comes mister prime Time and he throws a pick.
I'm like, oh, boys, game over, Sorry, time to go
to bed. So I put them in the bed. I
finished watching the game, and I was going to call
(07:08):
in here and say, we may need to retire mister Primetime.
We'll watch it last night game. What a phenomenal finish.
I don't want you to get decent assist letters for
mister Primetime, but I'm thinking we should do a new shirt.
Maybe mister Thursday Night Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Okay, I don't know. Is there a mister Primetime. I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Does somebody have that official designation or maybe just Primetime
Dion's got that. Okay, yeah, mister Primetime. I think we
could get away with that. Maybe Dion would look the
other way. I don't think he could argue with Kirk
(07:48):
Cousins being mister Primetime. Here is uh, do we have
the call? Here is the call, the game winning call
with Kirk d. Cousins on ninety two point nine in
the game the Falcons Radio Network.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Here's Mooney in motion with Cousins and they're gonna gun
it and it's caught to Daryl Hodge thirty.
Speaker 9 (08:08):
Five three any fifteen twelve home safely?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Oh my goodness, suck up to the game to Darryl
was serious a walk off for Cadaryl Hodge and the
Falcons forty five yards.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Kirk Cousins hit him right in the scene. Cadarrel Hodge
had one catch prior to that catch. I don't know
who Cadarrell Hodge is. Feels like he played in like
the ACC.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Oh he went to Prayer View, A and M, then
Heines Community College, then Alcorn State. Oh, he did the tour. Okay,
he's uh, he's twenty nine years old. He's been in
the NFL. This is his seventh season. He's got fifty
nine catches in seven years.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Could Darryl Hodge?
Speaker 10 (08:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (09:00):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Nowhere Bob and New York, Hi Bob, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 11 (09:05):
Hi? Hey Dan, thanks for letting me in. I always
appreciate it. I got a match for you in the
unexpected playoff home run from a surprise source department. JD.
Drew's fourteen million dollars Grand Slam in the two thousand
and seven World Series, except Alonso is a lot better
beloved by his home fans.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah. Remember JD Drew when he left and you go
to Philadelphia?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Is that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And number one overall draft pick he went to Florida State. Yeah, yeah,
JD Drew. Let me see what else do we have here?
Bob and New Haven, Connecticut? Hi Bob, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Oh? Phil Phil and New Haven. Yeah, Hello, Hey, hi Phil.
Speaker 12 (09:53):
I love me Fridays, but there's one thing better than
me Friday is meet and moonshine Saturday. And I have
a proposal for you. Yale is hosting Princeton on November sixteenth.
I have a trailer, a food trailer with a griddle,
(10:15):
an oven, and a smoker, and I will loan it
or bring it and let you guys use it, or
I'll cook for you for that game.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
All right, Well that's quite an invitation there. We've gone
to Yale, taket and tailgates. Before you know what, Phil,
I'll have Tyler takedown your information and I'll let you
know if I can get a group together maybe and
we would have you just cook up a feast. I'll
bring my tailgate moonshine, and we don't even have to
(10:48):
go into the game if you don't want to. I
was amazed the number of people when we went to
Harvard Yale. And this is years ago, and like the gate,
it's getting close to game time and I'm like, hey,
we're going to go in, And there were so many
people there at the tailgate at Yale. They're like, uh No,
I said, we're going to go watch the game. They're like, no,
(11:11):
we're gonna stay out here. By the way, you want
to talk about a stadium that needs to be they
should have like ten thousand seats and that's it. Like,
let's just make it quaint because there's I think that's
at least eighty thousand.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It's a huge ball. It definitely holds sixty five plus.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
It is. It is spacious.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Also, there's no bathrooms in the stadium. You have to
exit the property and there's go through the portal and
you go outside to the bathrooms.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Well, real men can hold it four quarter.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
That's the yel motto.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Yes, that's what it is. Yeah, but those.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Games are pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Are you sure that they didn't have bathrooms. They don't
have bathrooms there.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
I don't know where you were going to the bathroom,
but you're not supposed to go back.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Oh, I'd just open up a clause. There was just
a there's one in the press box utility clause it there.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
You have to exit the stadium. And they had these,
oh my good little buildings outside and the concessions are
outside as well.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Okay, I remembered the concessions. I don't remember the bathroom situation.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
Yes, that sounds like a lawsuit. Well ready to happen.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
There isn't there any rules about things being a certain
distance from where your seats are to a concert or
a sporting e band?
Speaker 4 (12:29):
No, why didn't you look into that?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
I think that's a It's pretty easy to exit the stadium.
There's not seventy thousand people in your way. There's maybe
like thirteen thousand. But if you like people in khaki
pants and rugby shirts and hair part of the.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Side, okay, Yale tell you Yeah, Yeah, a lot of
plaid plaid tongues. Yeah, led by Paulie. Yes, nobody plaids
the way Pauli plangs.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
We did a photo shoot at Yale, and I don't remember.
I guess there were portageohn the portal eds.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
There may have been like a service bathroom as we
exited the that little ramp that we drove all the
equipment in. Yeah, there could have been like a service
bathroom there. Yeah, but not open to the public.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
I can't imagine you're going to build something that sees
eighty thousand and you're gonna go, you know what we
forgot bathrooms?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Opening night? What we forget?
Speaker 4 (13:22):
Hmmm? Bathrooms. Yes, Marv.
Speaker 13 (13:25):
When that stadium was built, they talked like that. Yeah,
remember that place is one hundred. Is that is the
Rose Bowl a copy of the Yale Bowl?
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Well?
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Was he the Ye Bowl first?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Well, one looks like the before and one looks like
the after of a stadium.
Speaker 13 (13:44):
Well, they were like, hey, let's do the Yale Bowl
but way better.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yeah, it's huge. It's like a spaceship landed there. Yeah, Paul,
the Yale Bowl was built in nineteen fourteen. It was
actually used by the New York Giants football team in
nineteen seventy three, nineteen seventy four while they're building their
new stadium, So that's nineteen fourteen. Yeah, Fenway was nineteen twelve.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Does that sound right?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Checking checking?
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Yes, Ton.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
I was wondering why it's so big. Did they have
like gladiat of fights there with lions? But the time
I've gone to a game, it is so many empty seats.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Why do you need something that I'm checking? But I
don't think they had gladiator fights with lions in nineteen
four You.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Can get rid of three quarters of those seats and
making nice.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
It seems like that would be against the law.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
But football in the twenties and thirties was dominated by
Yale and Harvard and Army. Those are the places that
sold out. Fenway Park built in nineteen twelve, okay, opening
nineteen twelve.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I remember the first time I went to Fenway to
watch your game and I sat down, and those seats
are so small and there's no leg room. There weren't
people who were six three back then, and nobody was
heavy back then. But I remember sitting down. It was
I remember going to a game and John Riggins, his
(15:00):
son was behind me and introduced himself and then I
think John Riggins's son spilled a beer on me during
that game, during something exciting, might have been a playoff game,
but I remember it was so cramped. There's I think
obstructed views. Now they since added to Fenway, it's still
one of those on your bucket list that first time
you walk in and you see that green monster and
(15:23):
you're like, God, I could almost touch that. I think
I might be able to take one off the monster. Yes, Todd,
some of.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Those seats aren't even facing the right way. If you're
sitting look in the left field. You got to look
the whole time, all the way and hurt your neck
to see what's going on at home plate.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
You could probably walk around Boston and see a bunch
of older guys and they got problems with their neck
because looking over there in that way.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Yes, boy.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
The Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California was completed in nineteen
twenty two. The Myron Hunt was the architect. He's also
the guy that did the Yale Ball or he's inspired
by the guy you didn't oh, inspired? Yeah, but Myron
Hunt admitted that het part of it after the album
in Connecticut.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Inspired inspired inspired, No, they expired, expired, No, come on, no,
no clue. All right, when we come back, Dylan the
graphics guy is going to stop by with his gambling tips.
It was another epic, almost award winning episode yesterday with Dylan,
Shayan Irving and Bad Larry. It's available at Danpatrick dot
(16:25):
com when we come back. Who had the best week
in sports?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
After this?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio
dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to listen.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Live gets phone calls coming up.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Sean Casey are a good buddy, former Baseball All Star
and now an analyst for MLB Network, and in an
hour from now, Kirk Cousins will join us. After his
heroic performance last night, we could easily be talking about
Tampa Bay and the Milwaukee Brewers. It was that close.
We could be talking about the Brewers advancing, we could
(17:05):
be talking about Baker Mayfield another win, they grind it out.
But instead we're talking about the Falcons and the Mets.
All right, let's look at some of the Now, we're
gonna do the who had the best week in sports?
Either person, team, network, broadcaster, or whatever. Who had the
(17:26):
best week in sports? Todd, I'll say it again in
case you're multitasking, I'm going with the ate wait holding
who had the best weekend sports? Person, team, network, broadcaster, whatever.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
I'm gonna go with the Detroit Tigers.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
They sweep the Houston Nations, who went to seven straight
alcyes as they did it with their former manager AJ Hinch.
They go into Houston and take two at mid and
may Park gives him love to the Tigers.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Okay, and that's against yours Astros. All right, Marvin, I'm.
Speaker 13 (17:55):
Gonna go with baseball as a whole. The Mets. What
a great game last night. A great series against the Brewers,
the padres a coming back into national prominence, and then
the Tigers just like Fritzy said, great week and they
got great matchups coming up in the divisional round. So
baseball as.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
All a baseball as a whole.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Okay, all right, Paul, here's mine. It's a little wonky.
Stay with me. Pete Rose. Not so much for the
dying part, because that's more of a negative. That's never good.
But he was what eighty three? That is a negative
the positive. If you watch the let's say you're under
forty years old and you watched the coverage of Pete
Rose this week, you would have thought he's the victim
(18:36):
of something and he was being shut out of the
Hall of Fame and he was over punished for what
he did and let the man have his day. If
you're under forty years old, you look at Pete Rose
is almost like a martyr or something, and you probably
don't think what he did was that wrong.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
I would rather stay alive and have people not know
who I was.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
If that were an option, I'd vote for that, yes, yes,
But unfortunately that I didn't have anything to do with that.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Yeah, Like if I wasn't getting into this sportscasting Hall
of Fame, and I'm you know, hey, if you die,
then there's going to be a lot of people who
realize maybe what you did at Sports Center, that's okay.
You'd rather quietly go on. I'm going to quietly live
my life. But I'm already in this sportscasting.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Hall of Again, it was the second part back to you.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
I was going to do baseball because I said that
earlier in the week baseball had a good year. I
just think it was, you know what, We've been kind
of knocking baseball and this commissioner and rule changes and
speeding up the game and larger bases, and I think
it all worked. And you have twelve teams that were
(19:48):
in the playoffs, and it felt like all twelve had
a chance to win and maybe go to the World Series.
Baseball feels like it's going in the right direction.
Speaker 13 (19:56):
Yes, Marvin, And the crazy part is Otani or Judge.
Neither of them played this week, and they both had
a great week. So for me, it's it can only
go up from here the rest of the month.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Which Baseball divisional series are you most excited for?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
That's the pole question.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Mets Phillies, Padres, Dodgers, Royals, Yankees, Tigers, Guardians. It's the
Padres and Dodgers at forty three percent, followed by the
Mets and the Phillies, and then minimal interests, Royals, Yankees, Tigers,
and Guardians. All right, so let's look at the weekend.
The best games of the weekend. Dylan, the graphics guy,
(20:32):
part of the Gambling podcast, will come in and give
us his gambling picks for the weekend. Guaranteed to be losers.
All right, best games of the weekend. Postseason baseball, it's
Padres Dodgers. There's so much going on there, and you
know the proximity, the rivalry. The Padres I thought were
(20:54):
ready for primetime a couple of years ago. Dodgers a
little wounded, certainly with their pitching staff. Otani's on the
big stage here, Yes, Pauline, do you see what the.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Padres are doing on their website. They're selling playoff tickets.
They're trying to bar people from outside of San Diego
from buying them. They're using every trick in the book
to keep Dodger fans from coming down.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
You also have Ravens at the Bengals. Well, Cincinnati has
gotten off to their predictably slow start. This one's must win.
This is a this they have to win this game.
I'm gonna go must must win. I'm going to do
a double muster. Yeah, extra muster on this one. Ravens
(21:38):
at the Bengals, Bills at the Texans one o'clock.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Stefan digsbowl.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Stefan used to play for the Bills, now plays for
the Texans. That's a one o'clock game, A sneaky, great
one o'clock game. How about Sunday Night Cowboys, Steelers to
a great tranch in NFL history, the worst rushing offense
in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Just slide that in there.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Yeah, they probably have the worst rushing defense as well.
And okay, is Justin Field's playing for his job? Sunday
Night feels like Russell Wilson Junior, the third is in
the on deck circle to come back. If Justin Fields
(22:30):
doesn't play well, they don't win this game. Dot dot
dot dot dot. I think it's come on down, Russell Wilson.
But if Justin Fields plays well, they win the game.
He holds off Russell Wilson for another game another day.
(22:52):
How about Utah State versus my Boise State team. It's
probably not a marquee matchup to you, but it is
because Boise State's running back Ashton Jounty is mussy TV.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Right now.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
If you look at the prop bets, he is minus
thirty five hundred to score a touchdown. His over under
rushing yards one ninety two and a half.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
His over under last week was one eighty three, end
up with two hundred and sixty. So that's my college
football must see game. Brought to you by Kingswan. Slide
into the weekend. It's Slider Sunday, king Swan. They want
you to get together with family and friends enjoy the weekend,
making every Sunday a Slider Sunday. There he is Normally
(23:47):
he is our graphics guy, but he is also a
full time gambler, and he's flying his New York Mets hat.
He is Dylan, the graphics guy. Dylan, thanks for joining us.
Speaker 10 (23:57):
Hey fellas, Hey Bud, how are we doing?
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Did you bet on the Mets last night?
Speaker 14 (24:02):
I did, Dan, which looked like usual foolish for a
very long time, and then I was vindicated. However, there
was a separate betting related tragedy last night obviously there's
another game going on. Okay, Texas State and Troy. Yes,
the point total was fifty seven and I had the over.
(24:25):
They were at fifty five with twenty minutes left and
it ended at fifteen. Now I needed a field goal,
one field goal from either team. Troy continues to do
this to me, and I quit. I'm done gambling. I
texted Ray last night. I was like, I'm done. This
is stupid, it's rigged. I can't wait to do it
all weekend.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Yeah, you have been burned by Troy before so many times.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
Yes, but you keep going back.
Speaker 10 (24:52):
Well in the irony too. Is Texas State covered the spread?
Speaker 14 (24:55):
So if I just bet on them to beat Troy
by seventeen, yeah, there'd be no problem.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I got a betting question for Dylan on the morning game,
the nine thirty am Eastern in London, Jets at Vikings.
Do you have any policies on betting on overseas games, Dylan,
because that's an early one? And do you bet against
hot streaks like Sam Darnald?
Speaker 14 (25:15):
I do well, I don't know. It kind of depends
because it they have to end at some point, right,
I mean Sam Donald the Chickens will come home to roost.
I actually do like the Jets in this one, but
I also would probably take the under. For some reason,
I feel like those early London games are always a
weird like Jaguars e score where there's a lot of
threes and like eights in them.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yeah, Okay, what other games do you have?
Speaker 14 (25:38):
So I've got for college? Iowa's back this week. We're
going through a rough patch at the moment, Iowa and.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
You and Iowa aren't seeing I don't know.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
We're going to counseling.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Last year, you made a killing on the under with Iowa.
Speaker 10 (25:56):
Yeah it was nine and two. I think.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
Yeah, this year's been a day different story. Yeah, you
have this game the under Iowa at Ohio State forty five.
Speaker 14 (26:08):
So if Ohio State State beats some forty to nothing,
we're good.
Speaker 10 (26:12):
I don't think Iowa scores.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
No, No, I understand the over under.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
Yeah no, I'm just trying to say I got it.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
I'm forty four to nothing. You're good.
Speaker 14 (26:19):
Yes, I'm speaking into existence. Okay, So I've got that.
I got Purdue plus fourteen against Wisconsin. Purdue fired their
OC because they were abysmal, and Wisconsin blew. Probably the
worst game of the season last week. Yeah, okay, and
I've got a juicy one, Paul, You'll probably like this
Florida State money line against clemsdon No, dju who I
(26:44):
think has you could probably say has been a bit
of the problem there.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
You're picking Florida State to win out right, straight up
plus four to forty.
Speaker 10 (26:51):
Wow, all sprinkling a delight dusting.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
What is the betting line on that?
Speaker 10 (26:55):
I believe it's sixteen and a half.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, in that neck of the woods.
Speaker 14 (26:58):
Yeah, okay, but I'm going straight up. So that's college
for the NFL. I've got two Browns plus three and
a half against the Commanders.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
That's at Cleveland. Yes, I believe so.
Speaker 14 (27:12):
And kind of like Paul said, with the hot streaks,
I feel like the Commanders have to cool off a
little bit at some point. Jayden and Daniels probably due
for a.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Not so great game, okay.
Speaker 14 (27:21):
And then Dolphins Patriots under thirty six and a half.
I don't see how any points get scored in this.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
No points?
Speaker 10 (27:29):
Yeah, yeah, it's gonna be zero zero.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Can you bet that you could?
Speaker 14 (27:35):
I mean the odds would be astronomical, but yeah, to
end in the zero zero tie has that happened in like.
Speaker 10 (27:43):
The modern era?
Speaker 4 (27:44):
I don't think so.
Speaker 14 (27:45):
I don't think so either. Yeah, maybe three three I
could see three three happening in that one.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Okay, yeah, Pauling.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
The most recent zero zero tie in the NFL was
November seventh, nineteen forty three lions of course giants.
Speaker 10 (27:59):
I remember that one.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Yeah, yeah, a lot on that one. I had the over,
they had the over in that one. All right, Dylan,
Well there you go. Those are my best bets? Do
you have worst bets? I mean usually the best bet I.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Was gonna say, aren't they the worst bets?
Speaker 10 (28:16):
It's called gambling, ben.
Speaker 14 (28:17):
Anyone who says they know what they're doing when it
comes to gambling is lying to you.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
No, The people who know what they're doing with gambling
don't tell people are no. Those are the ones who
are putting out the betting line. Yes, yes, the people
are the ones collecting the money. They know what they're
doing when it comes to betting. They're called Vegas, they
aren't called yes your bookie.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Yes, Todd, I like that.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
He thinks the Hawkers may not even score at all
against the Buckeys.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
That'll be fun to see they get shut out to
get to Ohio State.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
They like to do that, Alrighty. I don't know what
we solved there, but we took up some time. Let's
take a break. We'll talk to the always energetic Sean
Casey get his thoughts on baseball moving into the next round.
Baseball had a great week, great season. We'll talk to him,
and then Kirk d cousin. We'll stop buying the final
hour back after this.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAPP.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
More of your phone calls coming up.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
I just went out and tested the white bean chicken chili.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
We're good.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
You guys are going to be good at the end
of the show. That's part of our meat Friday, along
with some brots here. I was jonesing for hot dogs
yesterday because I watched so much baseball, and then I
said to Tyler, who makes our food, I said, you know,
maybe some brods here. I'm still in a baseball mood
after yesterday, after last night. This guy's always in a
(29:41):
baseball mood. Sean Casey, MLB Network analyst, three time All
Star with the Reds and his podcast The Mayor's Office
wherever you get your podcast.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
How's the voice today.
Speaker 9 (29:53):
Danny good Man? How you doing, brother? What a game
that was last night?
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Huh okay? Did you think the Mets were done?
Speaker 7 (30:00):
You know what I actually did at the end of
the game, especially with Williams coming in, I thought down
to nothing that their offense wasn't getting going, and I
really did, and then it proved us all wrong.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
But you know, like Pete Alonso goes up there waiting
for one looking for one pitch? Is that would that
be the hitter's mentality in a situation like that?
Speaker 9 (30:20):
You know what I think?
Speaker 7 (30:21):
Obviously in that situation, you know, you could tell he
was trying to stay to right center, to stay on
the ball. Because williams Is change up is one of
the best in the game. I think he threw one
hundred and seventy six change ups this season. No Homer's
off it, So for Alonzo to hit a three to
one change up for Homer to right field is like
so improbable.
Speaker 9 (30:40):
That's I mean, that's how big of a deal it was.
Speaker 7 (30:42):
But I do think Alonso was still on the fastball
and it was a change up.
Speaker 9 (30:45):
He just left up.
Speaker 5 (30:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
In't that amazing that he knows that, like Marianna Rivera
would throw the slider. He could tell you he's throwing
the slider. It didn't matter, right, dude.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
I mean, most talk about talk about stories A quick story.
I don't know if I've ever told this on it Danny,
but talk about Mario and Rivera. One time I had
the day off. I got the day off in in
Detroit and.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
Uh, and Leland comes up to me.
Speaker 7 (31:12):
He's like, hey, Case, you're leading off the ninth against Mo.
I'm like, oh, thanks for the day off. This worked
out great. So so Dandy, I go up there, I'm like,
all right, I know he throw me a cutter. So
does everyone in the park and so does everyone in baseball.
So I'm just gonna I'm gonna step in the bucket,
you know, I'm gonna step towards the dugout see if
I can get to that cutter and.
Speaker 9 (31:31):
Shoot one to Wright.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
So sure enough, it happens. Mo throws me a pitch.
It's a cutter. It's everything I thought it was. I
step in the bucket and the thing starts coming in
like I he'd seek and missile daddy, it's it's coming
towards my chest. I'm like, oh my god, this is
gonna hit me in the chest. I do what an
incredible swing? I hit this ball, one of the furthest
balls I ever hit over there, dugout almost out of
(31:55):
the stadium.
Speaker 9 (31:56):
Like it was like some of the worst hitting you've
ever seen. Yeah, And next.
Speaker 7 (32:00):
Pitch, Danny, I got the same I got the same approach.
I'm gonna step in the bucket. Mo throws me a sinker.
I didn't even know he had it. Bam, fifteen hopper
back to him, broken bat. I'm out And I told Leland, hey,
thanks for that bat really worked out for me.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Yeah, I said, slider a cutter with Mo. What do
you think of the best of three format?
Speaker 9 (32:22):
I like it? I mean I like it.
Speaker 7 (32:23):
I mean obviously it gives you, It gives a you know,
it gives each team a couple games to get some
starters going to use your bullpens. I thought, I thought
it's been great so far. Obviously only one game went
to three and it was a great one. But I thought,
I think it. I liked the best of three.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I did too, because all of a sudden, the road
team wins that first game. Now all of a sudden,
you got do or die, even though the home team
gets all three games.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
I liked it.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
It was tension, there's excitement, and I thought it was
it was just fun to watch because every game truly mattered.
You know, those best of seven. You can lose it
game or lose two and you're like, okay, you lose
one and best of three. Now all of a sudden,
you got people's attention.
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Yeah, especially that game one.
Speaker 7 (33:09):
It seems like you lose game one, man, you really
got you really if you're the team that lost, you
really got a lock it in. But you're right, it's
the the pressure and the impact of those games is
so heightened when you're watching them.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Okay, best storyline, if I said Royals Tigers Padres. Out
of those three best storyline.
Speaker 7 (33:28):
Royals Tigers Padres, you know what best storyline was, probably
has to be the Tigers.
Speaker 9 (33:35):
It just has to be the fact.
Speaker 7 (33:36):
That the Tigers at the beginning of August were like
I think ten games under five hundred or ten games
out eight games under five hundred or something like that,
and all of a sudden they make this run, which
is incredible, especially with the way aj Hinch did it. Obviously,
schools probably gonna win the cy young, but really he
went to that that bullpen was used more than more
than any team in the game.
Speaker 9 (33:56):
The way they use them was incredible. And I also
think that.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
Up man, that lineup is so young and so hungry,
that looks like they're having so much fun out there.
Dan uh, I think that. I think for me, that's
been the biggest storylines of Tigers.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
We had Dave roberts On a couple of weeks ago
and he said he was gonna leave open the possibility
of Otani pitching in the postseason.
Speaker 9 (34:19):
I mean, that would be incredible, wouldn't it.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
I mean, can you imagine the year we've seen fifty
to fifty and Otani? If we he showed up at
any point in the postseason, it would just be one
of the greatest years ever.
Speaker 9 (34:30):
Just pissed one inning.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
I don't. I can't have it. I can't. I can't
allow it to happen. Yeah, I can't.
Speaker 9 (34:36):
It's not happening.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
I can't.
Speaker 11 (34:37):
I don't.
Speaker 9 (34:38):
I don't. I don't think it's gonna happen.
Speaker 7 (34:39):
I don't think it should happen because obviously you just
paid him seven hundred million dollars. You want to see
him healthy for next year, but you never know, Dan,
they need that one, that one inning to win at all.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
Could he be underrated?
Speaker 7 (34:53):
Can you believe? Can you believe? That's that's a great question.
Could he be underrated?
Speaker 5 (34:57):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (34:58):
I actually think he could now that we've I seen
what he can do when he's not pitching, because stealing
those fifty bags, I don't think he would do if
he was still in the rotation. But just showing the
world that, no, when I'm not pitching, this is the
player I am. I can go fifty to fifty and
I bet you could play like center field too and
dominate there if they let him. But the fact that
he is still one of the best pitchers in the game.
(35:19):
This guy throws one hundred plus miles an hour with
a nazy split finger, and he's only getting better. I
feel like the more he pitches in this league, he's
only getting better. So it actually could be underrated.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
MLB Network has live coverage before and after every league
Divisional Series game starting this weekend. Plus we're talking to
Sean Casey his podcast The Mayor's Office. Wherever you get
your podcast. Yeah, you start to look at him, and
now you had four steals in a season.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
I think that was your high.
Speaker 9 (35:46):
So two thousand and three, I remember it. I remember it.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
I won a large pizza that Chris Welsh was one
of the guys in the booth. He said, listen, if
you get forced for stolen base, I buy you a
large piece.
Speaker 9 (35:56):
At the end of the year, I was like, you
got it, so.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
But there's no asterisk by your stolen bases. These bases
are now as big as a pizza box, right.
Speaker 9 (36:07):
Good one, Dandy, good one.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
You could have had.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Six stolen bases that year. But I brought that up
to Big Poppy. I said, you know, that year he
hit fifty four home runs, he had one stolen base.
He said, they gave me a standing ovation that I
made it to second base.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Steels are all go.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
I mean they are They're inviting you, encouraging you to steal.
With that that trend continue.
Speaker 9 (36:31):
Yeah, well, I think I think one thing with Otania.
Speaker 7 (36:34):
I mean, it's easy to kind of say that, but
then you look at the guys in the game. I mean,
wasn't he second in Major League Baseball and Steel's I
think Dela Cruz was one, and that I think Otani
was too.
Speaker 9 (36:44):
So it wasn't like everybody.
Speaker 7 (36:45):
If the bags are bigger, why isn't everybody stealing fifty bases?
Speaker 9 (36:48):
Why isn't you know? I mean, I mean so, I
don't know.
Speaker 7 (36:51):
I obviously it's easier to steal now, but still guys
aren't doing it like, you know, like they like they
like they could be. But if I was on these
bay so, I definitely would have had at least five one.
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Year yeah, doubt.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
I also think that we've underrated Ronald Akunya his forty
one seventy three stolen based season.
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Now.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I know it's going to be forgotten because of Otani,
but to go forty seventy a couple of years ago,
I mean, that's remarkable, and I don't think it got
the attention it deserves. Like there's a couple like to me,
Fred Lynn is forgotten. He was Rookie of the Year, MVP,
nine time All Star, not a Hall of fame, Like
there's certain guys, certain moments seasons that always come to
(37:34):
mind for I don't know why, but those are a
couple of random thoughts that I've had. I don't know
why Fred Lynn nineteen seventy five Rookie of the Year, MVP,
nine time All Star, I believe not in the Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 7 (37:49):
Yeah, well, there's a lot of guys that come to
my mind when you start to, you know, go down
that path. But you know, like a Lance Berkman, you know,
were just some guys Don Mattingly, you know, some of
the guys I think of had incredible careers that showed
me in Cooperstown.
Speaker 9 (38:02):
Del Murphy, Yeah, Dale Murphy.
Speaker 7 (38:05):
Yeah, you're right though, Dan, I think there definitely is
a stigma with the bases being a little bigger. And
I think when you look at at Kunya's numbers and
you go, wow, forty seventy's that is incredible.
Speaker 9 (38:18):
I mean, will we ever see that again?
Speaker 7 (38:20):
I mean, Ellie Daily Cruz probably has a shot to
do it. You know what it makes me think of, really,
Dan Ricky Henderson, I mean one hundred and twenty what
was he stealing one hundred and twenty bags a year
with the bags being smaller, like guys are getting a
seventy Now we're going this is incredible. Henderson was stealing
one hundred bags numerous times. You know what I mean
to look back what Ricky Henderson did and you go
(38:41):
you have to go. Wow, Now that's incredible. Great to
talk to you. Bring the energy next time if you can. Okay,
I will, Danny, you're the best man. Good back to
you guys soon.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Sean Casey MLB Network analyst and three time All Star.
They're going to have coverage before and after every League
Divisional Series game starting this weekend, just to let people
know if they're not familiar with Sean, he's like that
all the time. I don't think he ever set a
low to a bad mood. He's always like that. Every
(39:12):
time he came in the studio, he came in like
you could his personality arrived before it, like five minutes
before he did. It's like Sean's personality is here, always
fired up, a lot of fun. All right, final hour,
it's going to be a busy final hours to meet Friday.
We have Kirk d Cousins joining us once again, mister Primetime.
(39:32):
More of your phone calls as well, Todd, will you
have a new poll question in the final hour of
the program?
Speaker 4 (39:38):
We will you will?
Speaker 5 (39:39):
Do you want to share it right now? I could
squeeze it in or you want.
Speaker 4 (39:41):
To wait I think we should wait.
Speaker 5 (39:43):
Yeah, we only got about twenty seconds left here.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
Because I want people to stay in their car, hold
off on making a phone call.
Speaker 5 (39:50):
It's NFL related.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
Oh, you just gave it away. Now I know what
it is. The answer is Kirk Cousins or eleven eleven

phone call has something to do with it, but he'll
join us a little bit later on. And Sean Casey
of the MLB Network, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Todd is doing this thing. And I can read Todd's face.
He's doing this cringey, quick talking, stammering thing. So I
hope it's good news. But usually if not.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Well just tell Todd to go in the other room
if he wants to talk to somebody kind.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Of entertaining from us for us.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
All right, So, yeah, that's what's happening here. It's a
meat Friday. In case you're wondering, and I know you are.
We have the traggers fired up, white bean, chicken, chili

Speaker 4 (00:45):
Who has it better than we do?
Speaker 5 (00:46):
No body.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Stat of the Day brought to you by Panani America,
the official trading card, And so this program, Fritzy is everything.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
Yeah, something came up in Seown Casey's schedule.
Speaker 6 (00:56):
He asked if he can join us one segment later,
so instead of ten twenty, he will join us at
ten forty.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
By a zoom yeah, but that changes then the segment
we were going to do that, he's now joining us.
We were going to do the who had the best
week in the world of sports? Okay, I'll try to adapt.
Speaker 6 (01:14):
You're very good at adapting, though, thank you from your
Sports Center days. They throw things at you. You can
kind of go with the plug.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
I'm still trying to adapt to you.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Mets come back to eliminate the Brewers, Pete Alonzo with
the home run, and the Falcons over the Buccaneers in overtime.
Kirk Dee Cousins throws for five nine four touchdowns. Now,
I have some numbers here for you. Most passing yards
per game in primetime games active players. Yeah, I've got
(01:44):
the stat of course, most passing yards per game prime time, Marvin,
I'll start with you. Who has the most yards per
game primetime Matthew Stafford second, Paul dak Prescott. No, not
(02:06):
in the top five, Todd Peyton Manning. These are active plays.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
I was on the phone and I didn't hear that
first part.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
No, no, no, you're not on the phone.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I'm not a fat right now.
Speaker 6 (02:16):
No.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
No, I didn't say, well, why do you do that,
Josh Allen? Why not just say you know, I missed it.
You weren't on the phone.
Speaker 6 (02:27):
Right, but I know, but I was adjusting something off
of that conversation, so I didn't catch that beginning part.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Can't you just say multitasking?
Speaker 5 (02:36):
A lot of things going on?
Speaker 6 (02:37):
We got we're out, Danette, I got the whole kinds
of things open here on this on the laptop.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Something has to give it some point.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So Marvin and Paulie aren't busy. You're the only one
that's been. But they answered the question.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
I should pay attention more you. I don't know what
else to say. I don't pay attention closely enough to
the program. It says that if that makes everybody feel good,
then no, there we go. Can't you I just nail
it in and I don't. I'm just kind of nobody
said here we go, Page we go, book a guest
out of the way.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
You said you were on the phone, and that was
a lie.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
I know.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
But once the phone call is over that there's other
things that have to be figured out. And I got
all these different windows open, but I didn't catch um.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Okay, so Patrick Mahomes is uh the leader right now
most passing yards per game, primetime two hundred and eighty
five yards, Matthew Stafford to eighty one, Kirk Cousins to
eighty in thirty three games. Kirk Cousins has had the
same number of primetime games as Patrick Mahomes thirty three.
Justin Herbert's in there and Joe Burrow in there as well.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Stead of the day, stall of a day, stanatata day,
scant outa day.
Speaker 8 (03:49):
This is the start of the day.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Brought to you by Panniny America. Todd.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Who do you think has averaged the most passing yards
in primetime among active quarterbacks?
Speaker 6 (04:04):
It's probably not the right answer, but I had guess
Josh Allen, but he didn't really throw it for.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
That nun number. No, it's still Patrick Mahomes. I just
gave you all the answers.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
So you tricked me. Here you go.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
How did I trick you to see if I was
paying attention. You gave the answer, and I obviously didn't
hear the answer.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
But you were multitasking and probably on the phone.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
Okay, what we want to do on Friday?
Speaker 4 (04:31):
It was really harmless.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
I don't have a good response to that. I need
to pay more attention to work harder, just.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Half of it, that's all. Just pay attention, that's all.
Speaker 9 (04:48):
Patrick Mahomes, Okay, got it, all right, all right, come.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
On, come on, come on, we're here.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Come on, No nobody, nobody, Todd I.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I don't know if you're busy, but can you us
the poll question for hour two?
Speaker 5 (05:01):
I can give you the poll rush of four too.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
It is which MLB divisional series are you most excited for? Mets, Phillies, Padres, Dodgers, Royals, Yankees, Tigers, Guardians.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I'm gonna say Padre's Dodgers. I just I think you
got star power. I mean, you got a rivalry here.
Padres were what five and eight against the Dodgers this season?
Yankees they won five of seven against the Royals this year.
Phillies they won seven of the thirteen games against the Mets.
(05:35):
And the Guardians they won seven of the thirteen games
against Detroit. Did you see where Terry Francona, a year
after retiring, is now I'm going to manage the Reds.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I was.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I was really surprised at that.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I know that health wise that was an issue in Cleveland,
but that's a great I mean, he's one of my
favorite people. In a Hall of Fame. I was just
kind of surprised gonna do the Reds all right, Retirement
isn't a fun especially when you have that routine. Everything
about a baseball player manager routine when you get there,
(06:15):
what you do and a pregame meal, do this, do that,
do this at the end of the game on the
road or at home, you know, training camp, spring training,
and it's just so regimented there that you probably missed
that you sit around and go, what am I doing?
What am I going to do? But that's great. Terry
(06:37):
Francona back in baseball is great for baseball. Nick in California,
Good morning, Nick, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (06:47):
Good morning Dan, Thanks for taking my call. Good to
be on with you. So I'm watching last night's game
and I got three boys, two are in school, second grade,
in kindergarten, and it's way past their bedtime, and here
it comes mister prime Time and he throws a pick.
I'm like, oh, boys, game over, Sorry, time to go
to bed. So I put them in the bed. I
finished watching the game, and I was going to call
(07:08):
in here and say, we may need to retire mister Primetime.
We'll watch it last night game. What a phenomenal finish.
I don't want you to get decent assist letters for
mister Primetime, but I'm thinking we should do a new shirt.
Maybe mister Thursday Night Kirk Cousins.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Okay, I don't know. Is there a mister Primetime. I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Does somebody have that official designation or maybe just Primetime
Dion's got that. Okay, yeah, mister Primetime. I think we
could get away with that. Maybe Dion would look the
other way. I don't think he could argue with Kirk
(07:48):
Cousins being mister Primetime. Here is uh, do we have
the call? Here is the call, the game winning call
with Kirk d. Cousins on ninety two point nine in
the game the Falcons Radio Network.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Here's Mooney in motion with Cousins and they're gonna gun
it and it's caught to Daryl Hodge thirty.
Speaker 9 (08:08):
Five three any fifteen twelve home safely?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Oh my goodness, suck up to the game to Darryl
was serious a walk off for Cadaryl Hodge and the
Falcons forty five yards.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Kirk Cousins hit him right in the scene. Cadarrel Hodge
had one catch prior to that catch. I don't know
who Cadarrell Hodge is. Feels like he played in like
the ACC.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Oh he went to Prayer View, A and M, then
Heines Community College, then Alcorn State. Oh, he did the tour. Okay,
he's uh, he's twenty nine years old. He's been in
the NFL. This is his seventh season. He's got fifty
nine catches in seven years.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Could Darryl Hodge?
Speaker 10 (08:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (09:00):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Nowhere Bob and New York, Hi Bob, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 11 (09:05):
Hi? Hey Dan, thanks for letting me in. I always
appreciate it. I got a match for you in the
unexpected playoff home run from a surprise source department. JD.
Drew's fourteen million dollars Grand Slam in the two thousand
and seven World Series, except Alonso is a lot better
beloved by his home fans.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah. Remember JD Drew when he left and you go
to Philadelphia?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Is that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And number one overall draft pick he went to Florida State. Yeah, yeah,
JD Drew. Let me see what else do we have here?
Bob and New Haven, Connecticut? Hi Bob, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Oh? Phil Phil and New Haven. Yeah, Hello, Hey, hi Phil.
Speaker 12 (09:53):
I love me Fridays, but there's one thing better than
me Friday is meet and moonshine Saturday. And I have
a proposal for you. Yale is hosting Princeton on November sixteenth.
I have a trailer, a food trailer with a griddle,
(10:15):
an oven, and a smoker, and I will loan it
or bring it and let you guys use it, or
I'll cook for you for that game.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
All right, Well that's quite an invitation there. We've gone
to Yale, taket and tailgates. Before you know what, Phil,
I'll have Tyler takedown your information and I'll let you
know if I can get a group together maybe and
we would have you just cook up a feast. I'll
bring my tailgate moonshine, and we don't even have to
(10:48):
go into the game if you don't want to. I
was amazed the number of people when we went to
Harvard Yale. And this is years ago, and like the gate,
it's getting close to game time and I'm like, hey,
we're going to go in, And there were so many
people there at the tailgate at Yale. They're like, uh No,
I said, we're going to go watch the game. They're like, no,
(11:11):
we're gonna stay out here. By the way, you want
to talk about a stadium that needs to be they
should have like ten thousand seats and that's it. Like,
let's just make it quaint because there's I think that's
at least eighty thousand.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It's a huge ball. It definitely holds sixty five plus.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
It is. It is spacious.
Speaker 3 (11:37):
Also, there's no bathrooms in the stadium. You have to
exit the property and there's go through the portal and
you go outside to the bathrooms.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Well, real men can hold it four quarter.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
That's the yel motto.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Yes, that's what it is. Yeah, but those.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Games are pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Are you sure that they didn't have bathrooms. They don't
have bathrooms there.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
I don't know where you were going to the bathroom,
but you're not supposed to go back.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
Oh, I'd just open up a clause. There was just
a there's one in the press box utility clause it there.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
You have to exit the stadium. And they had these,
oh my good little buildings outside and the concessions are
outside as well.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Okay, I remembered the concessions. I don't remember the bathroom situation.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
Yes, that sounds like a lawsuit. Well ready to happen.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
There isn't there any rules about things being a certain
distance from where your seats are to a concert or
a sporting e band?
Speaker 4 (12:29):
No, why didn't you look into that?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
I think that's a It's pretty easy to exit the stadium.
There's not seventy thousand people in your way. There's maybe
like thirteen thousand. But if you like people in khaki
pants and rugby shirts and hair part of the.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Side, okay, Yale tell you Yeah, Yeah, a lot of
plaid plaid tongues. Yeah, led by Paulie. Yes, nobody plaids
the way Pauli plangs.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
We did a photo shoot at Yale, and I don't remember.
I guess there were portageohn the portal eds.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
There may have been like a service bathroom as we
exited the that little ramp that we drove all the
equipment in. Yeah, there could have been like a service
bathroom there. Yeah, but not open to the public.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
I can't imagine you're going to build something that sees
eighty thousand and you're gonna go, you know what we
forgot bathrooms?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Opening night? What we forget?
Speaker 4 (13:22):
Hmmm? Bathrooms. Yes, Marv.
Speaker 13 (13:25):
When that stadium was built, they talked like that. Yeah,
remember that place is one hundred. Is that is the
Rose Bowl a copy of the Yale Bowl?
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Well?
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Was he the Ye Bowl first?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Well, one looks like the before and one looks like
the after of a stadium.
Speaker 13 (13:44):
Well, they were like, hey, let's do the Yale Bowl
but way better.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yeah, it's huge. It's like a spaceship landed there. Yeah, Paul,
the Yale Bowl was built in nineteen fourteen. It was
actually used by the New York Giants football team in
nineteen seventy three, nineteen seventy four while they're building their
new stadium, So that's nineteen fourteen. Yeah, Fenway was nineteen twelve.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Does that sound right?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Checking checking?
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Yes, Ton.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
I was wondering why it's so big. Did they have
like gladiat of fights there with lions? But the time
I've gone to a game, it is so many empty seats.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Why do you need something that I'm checking? But I
don't think they had gladiator fights with lions in nineteen
four You.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Can get rid of three quarters of those seats and
making nice.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
It seems like that would be against the law.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
But football in the twenties and thirties was dominated by
Yale and Harvard and Army. Those are the places that
sold out. Fenway Park built in nineteen twelve, okay, opening
nineteen twelve.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I remember the first time I went to Fenway to
watch your game and I sat down, and those seats
are so small and there's no leg room. There weren't
people who were six three back then, and nobody was
heavy back then. But I remember sitting down. It was
I remember going to a game and John Riggins, his
(15:00):
son was behind me and introduced himself and then I
think John Riggins's son spilled a beer on me during
that game, during something exciting, might have been a playoff game,
but I remember it was so cramped. There's I think
obstructed views. Now they since added to Fenway, it's still
one of those on your bucket list that first time
you walk in and you see that green monster and
(15:23):
you're like, God, I could almost touch that. I think
I might be able to take one off the monster. Yes, Todd,
some of.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Those seats aren't even facing the right way. If you're
sitting look in the left field. You got to look
the whole time, all the way and hurt your neck
to see what's going on at home plate.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
You could probably walk around Boston and see a bunch
of older guys and they got problems with their neck
because looking over there in that way.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Yes, boy.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
The Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California was completed in nineteen
twenty two. The Myron Hunt was the architect. He's also
the guy that did the Yale Ball or he's inspired
by the guy you didn't oh, inspired? Yeah, but Myron
Hunt admitted that het part of it after the album
in Connecticut.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Inspired inspired inspired, No, they expired, expired, No, come on, no,
no clue. All right, when we come back, Dylan the
graphics guy is going to stop by with his gambling tips.
It was another epic, almost award winning episode yesterday with Dylan,
Shayan Irving and Bad Larry. It's available at Danpatrick dot
(16:25):
com when we come back. Who had the best week
in sports?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
After this?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio
dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to listen.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Live gets phone calls coming up.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Sean Casey are a good buddy, former Baseball All Star
and now an analyst for MLB Network, and in an
hour from now, Kirk Cousins will join us. After his
heroic performance last night, we could easily be talking about
Tampa Bay and the Milwaukee Brewers. It was that close.
We could be talking about the Brewers advancing, we could
(17:05):
be talking about Baker Mayfield another win, they grind it out.
But instead we're talking about the Falcons and the Mets.
All right, let's look at some of the Now, we're
gonna do the who had the best week in sports?
Either person, team, network, broadcaster, or whatever. Who had the
(17:26):
best week in sports? Todd, I'll say it again in
case you're multitasking, I'm going with the ate wait holding
who had the best weekend sports? Person, team, network, broadcaster, whatever.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
I'm gonna go with the Detroit Tigers.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
They sweep the Houston Nations, who went to seven straight
alcyes as they did it with their former manager AJ Hinch.
They go into Houston and take two at mid and
may Park gives him love to the Tigers.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Okay, and that's against yours Astros. All right, Marvin, I'm.
Speaker 13 (17:55):
Gonna go with baseball as a whole. The Mets. What
a great game last night. A great series against the Brewers,
the padres a coming back into national prominence, and then
the Tigers just like Fritzy said, great week and they
got great matchups coming up in the divisional round. So
baseball as.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
All a baseball as a whole.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Okay, all right, Paul, here's mine. It's a little wonky.
Stay with me. Pete Rose. Not so much for the
dying part, because that's more of a negative. That's never good.
But he was what eighty three? That is a negative
the positive. If you watch the let's say you're under
forty years old and you watched the coverage of Pete
Rose this week, you would have thought he's the victim
(18:36):
of something and he was being shut out of the
Hall of Fame and he was over punished for what
he did and let the man have his day. If
you're under forty years old, you look at Pete Rose
is almost like a martyr or something, and you probably
don't think what he did was that wrong.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
I would rather stay alive and have people not know
who I was.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
If that were an option, I'd vote for that, yes, yes,
But unfortunately that I didn't have anything to do with that.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Yeah, Like if I wasn't getting into this sportscasting Hall
of Fame, and I'm you know, hey, if you die,
then there's going to be a lot of people who
realize maybe what you did at Sports Center, that's okay.
You'd rather quietly go on. I'm going to quietly live
my life. But I'm already in this sportscasting.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Hall of Again, it was the second part back to you.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
I was going to do baseball because I said that
earlier in the week baseball had a good year. I
just think it was, you know what, We've been kind
of knocking baseball and this commissioner and rule changes and
speeding up the game and larger bases, and I think
it all worked. And you have twelve teams that were
(19:48):
in the playoffs, and it felt like all twelve had
a chance to win and maybe go to the World Series.
Baseball feels like it's going in the right direction.
Speaker 13 (19:56):
Yes, Marvin, And the crazy part is Otani or Judge.
Neither of them played this week, and they both had
a great week. So for me, it's it can only
go up from here the rest of the month.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Which Baseball divisional series are you most excited for?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
That's the pole question.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Mets Phillies, Padres, Dodgers, Royals, Yankees, Tigers, Guardians. It's the
Padres and Dodgers at forty three percent, followed by the
Mets and the Phillies, and then minimal interests, Royals, Yankees, Tigers,
and Guardians. All right, so let's look at the weekend.
The best games of the weekend. Dylan, the graphics guy,
(20:32):
part of the Gambling podcast, will come in and give
us his gambling picks for the weekend. Guaranteed to be losers.
All right, best games of the weekend. Postseason baseball, it's
Padres Dodgers. There's so much going on there, and you
know the proximity, the rivalry. The Padres I thought were
(20:54):
ready for primetime a couple of years ago. Dodgers a
little wounded, certainly with their pitching staff. Otani's on the
big stage here, Yes, Pauline, do you see what the.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Padres are doing on their website. They're selling playoff tickets.
They're trying to bar people from outside of San Diego
from buying them. They're using every trick in the book
to keep Dodger fans from coming down.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
You also have Ravens at the Bengals. Well, Cincinnati has
gotten off to their predictably slow start. This one's must win.
This is a this they have to win this game.
I'm gonna go must must win. I'm going to do
a double muster. Yeah, extra muster on this one. Ravens
(21:38):
at the Bengals, Bills at the Texans one o'clock.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Stefan digsbowl.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Stefan used to play for the Bills, now plays for
the Texans. That's a one o'clock game, A sneaky, great
one o'clock game. How about Sunday Night Cowboys, Steelers to
a great tranch in NFL history, the worst rushing offense
in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Just slide that in there.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Yeah, they probably have the worst rushing defense as well.
And okay, is Justin Field's playing for his job? Sunday
Night feels like Russell Wilson Junior, the third is in
the on deck circle to come back. If Justin Fields
(22:30):
doesn't play well, they don't win this game. Dot dot
dot dot dot. I think it's come on down, Russell Wilson.
But if Justin Fields plays well, they win the game.
He holds off Russell Wilson for another game another day.
(22:52):
How about Utah State versus my Boise State team. It's
probably not a marquee matchup to you, but it is
because Boise State's running back Ashton Jounty is mussy TV.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Right now.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
If you look at the prop bets, he is minus
thirty five hundred to score a touchdown. His over under
rushing yards one ninety two and a half.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
His over under last week was one eighty three, end
up with two hundred and sixty. So that's my college
football must see game. Brought to you by Kingswan. Slide
into the weekend. It's Slider Sunday, king Swan. They want
you to get together with family and friends enjoy the weekend,
making every Sunday a Slider Sunday. There he is Normally
(23:47):
he is our graphics guy, but he is also a
full time gambler, and he's flying his New York Mets hat.
He is Dylan, the graphics guy. Dylan, thanks for joining us.
Speaker 10 (23:57):
Hey fellas, Hey Bud, how are we doing?
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Did you bet on the Mets last night?
Speaker 14 (24:02):
I did, Dan, which looked like usual foolish for a
very long time, and then I was vindicated. However, there
was a separate betting related tragedy last night obviously there's
another game going on. Okay, Texas State and Troy. Yes,
the point total was fifty seven and I had the over.
(24:25):
They were at fifty five with twenty minutes left and
it ended at fifteen. Now I needed a field goal,
one field goal from either team. Troy continues to do
this to me, and I quit. I'm done gambling. I
texted Ray last night. I was like, I'm done. This
is stupid, it's rigged. I can't wait to do it
all weekend.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Yeah, you have been burned by Troy before so many times.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
Yes, but you keep going back.
Speaker 10 (24:52):
Well in the irony too. Is Texas State covered the spread?
Speaker 14 (24:55):
So if I just bet on them to beat Troy
by seventeen, yeah, there'd be no problem.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I got a betting question for Dylan on the morning game,
the nine thirty am Eastern in London, Jets at Vikings.
Do you have any policies on betting on overseas games, Dylan,
because that's an early one? And do you bet against
hot streaks like Sam Darnald?
Speaker 14 (25:15):
I do well, I don't know. It kind of depends
because it they have to end at some point, right,
I mean Sam Donald the Chickens will come home to roost.
I actually do like the Jets in this one, but
I also would probably take the under. For some reason,
I feel like those early London games are always a
weird like Jaguars e score where there's a lot of
threes and like eights in them.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yeah, Okay, what other games do you have?
Speaker 14 (25:38):
So I've got for college? Iowa's back this week. We're
going through a rough patch at the moment, Iowa and.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
You and Iowa aren't seeing I don't know.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
We're going to counseling.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Last year, you made a killing on the under with Iowa.
Speaker 10 (25:56):
Yeah it was nine and two. I think.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
Yeah, this year's been a day different story. Yeah, you
have this game the under Iowa at Ohio State forty five.
Speaker 14 (26:08):
So if Ohio State State beats some forty to nothing,
we're good.
Speaker 10 (26:12):
I don't think Iowa scores.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
No, No, I understand the over under.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
Yeah no, I'm just trying to say I got it.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
I'm forty four to nothing. You're good.
Speaker 14 (26:19):
Yes, I'm speaking into existence. Okay, So I've got that.
I got Purdue plus fourteen against Wisconsin. Purdue fired their
OC because they were abysmal, and Wisconsin blew. Probably the
worst game of the season last week. Yeah, okay, and
I've got a juicy one, Paul, You'll probably like this
Florida State money line against clemsdon No, dju who I
(26:44):
think has you could probably say has been a bit
of the problem there.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
You're picking Florida State to win out right, straight up
plus four to forty.
Speaker 10 (26:51):
Wow, all sprinkling a delight dusting.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
What is the betting line on that?
Speaker 10 (26:55):
I believe it's sixteen and a half.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, in that neck of the woods.
Speaker 14 (26:58):
Yeah, okay, but I'm going straight up. So that's college
for the NFL. I've got two Browns plus three and
a half against the Commanders.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
That's at Cleveland. Yes, I believe so.
Speaker 14 (27:12):
And kind of like Paul said, with the hot streaks,
I feel like the Commanders have to cool off a
little bit at some point. Jayden and Daniels probably due
for a.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Not so great game, okay.
Speaker 14 (27:21):
And then Dolphins Patriots under thirty six and a half.
I don't see how any points get scored in this.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
No points?
Speaker 10 (27:29):
Yeah, yeah, it's gonna be zero zero.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Can you bet that you could?
Speaker 14 (27:35):
I mean the odds would be astronomical, but yeah, to
end in the zero zero tie has that happened in like.
Speaker 10 (27:43):
The modern era?
Speaker 4 (27:44):
I don't think so.
Speaker 14 (27:45):
I don't think so either. Yeah, maybe three three I
could see three three happening in that one.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Okay, yeah, Pauling.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
The most recent zero zero tie in the NFL was
November seventh, nineteen forty three lions of course giants.
Speaker 10 (27:59):
I remember that one.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Yeah, yeah, a lot on that one. I had the over,
they had the over in that one. All right, Dylan,
Well there you go. Those are my best bets? Do
you have worst bets? I mean usually the best bet I.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Was gonna say, aren't they the worst bets?
Speaker 10 (28:16):
It's called gambling, ben.
Speaker 14 (28:17):
Anyone who says they know what they're doing when it
comes to gambling is lying to you.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
No, The people who know what they're doing with gambling
don't tell people are no. Those are the ones who
are putting out the betting line. Yes, yes, the people
are the ones collecting the money. They know what they're
doing when it comes to betting. They're called Vegas, they
aren't called yes your bookie.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Yes, Todd, I like that.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
He thinks the Hawkers may not even score at all
against the Buckeys.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
That'll be fun to see they get shut out to
get to Ohio State.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
They like to do that, Alrighty. I don't know what
we solved there, but we took up some time. Let's
take a break. We'll talk to the always energetic Sean
Casey get his thoughts on baseball moving into the next round.
Baseball had a great week, great season. We'll talk to him,
and then Kirk d cousin. We'll stop buying the final
hour back after this.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAPP.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
More of your phone calls coming up.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
I just went out and tested the white bean chicken chili.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
We're good.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
You guys are going to be good at the end
of the show. That's part of our meat Friday, along
with some brots here. I was jonesing for hot dogs
yesterday because I watched so much baseball, and then I
said to Tyler, who makes our food, I said, you know,
maybe some brods here. I'm still in a baseball mood
after yesterday, after last night. This guy's always in a
(29:41):
baseball mood. Sean Casey, MLB Network analyst, three time All
Star with the Reds and his podcast The Mayor's Office
wherever you get your podcast.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
How's the voice today.
Speaker 9 (29:53):
Danny good Man? How you doing, brother? What a game
that was last night?
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Huh okay? Did you think the Mets were done?
Speaker 7 (30:00):
You know what I actually did at the end of
the game, especially with Williams coming in, I thought down
to nothing that their offense wasn't getting going, and I
really did, and then it proved us all wrong.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
But you know, like Pete Alonso goes up there waiting
for one looking for one pitch? Is that would that
be the hitter's mentality in a situation like that?
Speaker 9 (30:20):
You know what I think?
Speaker 7 (30:21):
Obviously in that situation, you know, you could tell he
was trying to stay to right center, to stay on
the ball. Because williams Is change up is one of
the best in the game. I think he threw one
hundred and seventy six change ups this season. No Homer's
off it, So for Alonzo to hit a three to
one change up for Homer to right field is like
so improbable.
Speaker 9 (30:40):
That's I mean, that's how big of a deal it was.
Speaker 7 (30:42):
But I do think Alonso was still on the fastball
and it was a change up.
Speaker 9 (30:45):
He just left up.
Speaker 5 (30:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
In't that amazing that he knows that, like Marianna Rivera
would throw the slider. He could tell you he's throwing
the slider. It didn't matter, right, dude.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
I mean, most talk about talk about stories A quick story.
I don't know if I've ever told this on it Danny,
but talk about Mario and Rivera. One time I had
the day off. I got the day off in in
Detroit and.
Speaker 9 (31:10):
Uh, and Leland comes up to me.
Speaker 7 (31:12):
He's like, hey, Case, you're leading off the ninth against Mo.
I'm like, oh, thanks for the day off. This worked
out great. So so Dandy, I go up there, I'm like,
all right, I know he throw me a cutter. So
does everyone in the park and so does everyone in baseball.
So I'm just gonna I'm gonna step in the bucket,
you know, I'm gonna step towards the dugout see if
I can get to that cutter and.
Speaker 9 (31:31):
Shoot one to Wright.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
So sure enough, it happens. Mo throws me a pitch.
It's a cutter. It's everything I thought it was. I
step in the bucket and the thing starts coming in
like I he'd seek and missile daddy, it's it's coming
towards my chest. I'm like, oh my god, this is
gonna hit me in the chest. I do what an
incredible swing? I hit this ball, one of the furthest
balls I ever hit over there, dugout almost out of
(31:55):
the stadium.
Speaker 9 (31:56):
Like it was like some of the worst hitting you've
ever seen. Yeah, And next.
Speaker 7 (32:00):
Pitch, Danny, I got the same I got the same approach.
I'm gonna step in the bucket. Mo throws me a sinker.
I didn't even know he had it. Bam, fifteen hopper
back to him, broken bat. I'm out And I told Leland, hey,
thanks for that bat really worked out for me.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Yeah, I said, slider a cutter with Mo. What do
you think of the best of three format?
Speaker 9 (32:22):
I like it? I mean I like it.
Speaker 7 (32:23):
I mean obviously it gives you, It gives a you know,
it gives each team a couple games to get some
starters going to use your bullpens. I thought, I thought
it's been great so far. Obviously only one game went
to three and it was a great one. But I thought,
I think it. I liked the best of three.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
I did too, because all of a sudden, the road
team wins that first game. Now all of a sudden,
you got do or die, even though the home team
gets all three games.
Speaker 4 (32:48):
I liked it.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
It was tension, there's excitement, and I thought it was
it was just fun to watch because every game truly mattered.
You know, those best of seven. You can lose it
game or lose two and you're like, okay, you lose
one and best of three. Now all of a sudden,
you got people's attention.
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Yeah, especially that game one.
Speaker 7 (33:09):
It seems like you lose game one, man, you really
got you really if you're the team that lost, you
really got a lock it in. But you're right, it's
the the pressure and the impact of those games is
so heightened when you're watching them.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Okay, best storyline, if I said Royals Tigers Padres. Out
of those three best storyline.
Speaker 7 (33:28):
Royals Tigers Padres, you know what best storyline was, probably
has to be the Tigers.
Speaker 9 (33:35):
It just has to be the fact.
Speaker 7 (33:36):
That the Tigers at the beginning of August were like
I think ten games under five hundred or ten games
out eight games under five hundred or something like that,
and all of a sudden they make this run, which
is incredible, especially with the way aj Hinch did it. Obviously,
schools probably gonna win the cy young, but really he
went to that that bullpen was used more than more
than any team in the game.
Speaker 9 (33:56):
The way they use them was incredible. And I also
think that.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
Up man, that lineup is so young and so hungry,
that looks like they're having so much fun out there.
Dan uh, I think that. I think for me, that's
been the biggest storylines of Tigers.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
We had Dave roberts On a couple of weeks ago
and he said he was gonna leave open the possibility
of Otani pitching in the postseason.
Speaker 9 (34:19):
I mean, that would be incredible, wouldn't it.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
I mean, can you imagine the year we've seen fifty
to fifty and Otani? If we he showed up at
any point in the postseason, it would just be one
of the greatest years ever.
Speaker 9 (34:30):
Just pissed one inning.
Speaker 4 (34:32):
I don't. I can't have it. I can't. I can't
allow it to happen. Yeah, I can't.
Speaker 9 (34:36):
It's not happening.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
I can't.
Speaker 11 (34:37):
I don't.
Speaker 9 (34:38):
I don't. I don't think it's gonna happen.
Speaker 7 (34:39):
I don't think it should happen because obviously you just
paid him seven hundred million dollars. You want to see
him healthy for next year, but you never know, Dan,
they need that one, that one inning to win at all.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
Could he be underrated?
Speaker 7 (34:53):
Can you believe? Can you believe? That's that's a great question.
Could he be underrated?
Speaker 5 (34:57):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (34:58):
I actually think he could now that we've I seen
what he can do when he's not pitching, because stealing
those fifty bags, I don't think he would do if
he was still in the rotation. But just showing the
world that, no, when I'm not pitching, this is the
player I am. I can go fifty to fifty and
I bet you could play like center field too and
dominate there if they let him. But the fact that
he is still one of the best pitchers in the game.
(35:19):
This guy throws one hundred plus miles an hour with
a nazy split finger, and he's only getting better. I
feel like the more he pitches in this league, he's
only getting better. So it actually could be underrated.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
MLB Network has live coverage before and after every league
Divisional Series game starting this weekend. Plus we're talking to
Sean Casey his podcast The Mayor's Office. Wherever you get
your podcast. Yeah, you start to look at him, and
now you had four steals in a season.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
I think that was your high.
Speaker 9 (35:46):
So two thousand and three, I remember it. I remember it.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
I won a large pizza that Chris Welsh was one
of the guys in the booth. He said, listen, if
you get forced for stolen base, I buy you a
large piece.
Speaker 9 (35:56):
At the end of the year, I was like, you
got it, so.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
But there's no asterisk by your stolen bases. These bases
are now as big as a pizza box, right.
Speaker 9 (36:07):
Good one, Dandy, good one.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
You could have had.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Six stolen bases that year. But I brought that up
to Big Poppy. I said, you know, that year he
hit fifty four home runs, he had one stolen base.
He said, they gave me a standing ovation that I
made it to second base.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Steels are all go.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
I mean they are They're inviting you, encouraging you to steal.
With that that trend continue.
Speaker 9 (36:31):
Yeah, well, I think I think one thing with Otania.
Speaker 7 (36:34):
I mean, it's easy to kind of say that, but
then you look at the guys in the game. I mean,
wasn't he second in Major League Baseball and Steel's I
think Dela Cruz was one, and that I think Otani
was too.
Speaker 9 (36:44):
So it wasn't like everybody.
Speaker 7 (36:45):
If the bags are bigger, why isn't everybody stealing fifty bases?
Speaker 9 (36:48):
Why isn't you know? I mean, I mean so, I
don't know.
Speaker 7 (36:51):
I obviously it's easier to steal now, but still guys
aren't doing it like, you know, like they like they
like they could be. But if I was on these
bay so, I definitely would have had at least five one.
Speaker 4 (37:01):
Year yeah, doubt.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
I also think that we've underrated Ronald Akunya his forty
one seventy three stolen based season.
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Now.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I know it's going to be forgotten because of Otani,
but to go forty seventy a couple of years ago,
I mean, that's remarkable, and I don't think it got
the attention it deserves. Like there's a couple like to me,
Fred Lynn is forgotten. He was Rookie of the Year, MVP,
nine time All Star, not a Hall of fame, Like
there's certain guys, certain moments seasons that always come to
(37:34):
mind for I don't know why, but those are a
couple of random thoughts that I've had. I don't know
why Fred Lynn nineteen seventy five Rookie of the Year, MVP,
nine time All Star, I believe not in the Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 7 (37:49):
Yeah, well, there's a lot of guys that come to
my mind when you start to, you know, go down
that path. But you know, like a Lance Berkman, you know,
were just some guys Don Mattingly, you know, some of
the guys I think of had incredible careers that showed
me in Cooperstown.
Speaker 9 (38:02):
Del Murphy, Yeah, Dale Murphy.
Speaker 7 (38:05):
Yeah, you're right though, Dan, I think there definitely is
a stigma with the bases being a little bigger. And
I think when you look at at Kunya's numbers and
you go, wow, forty seventy's that is incredible.
Speaker 9 (38:18):
I mean, will we ever see that again?
Speaker 7 (38:20):
I mean, Ellie Daily Cruz probably has a shot to
do it. You know what it makes me think of, really,
Dan Ricky Henderson, I mean one hundred and twenty what
was he stealing one hundred and twenty bags a year
with the bags being smaller, like guys are getting a
seventy Now we're going this is incredible. Henderson was stealing
one hundred bags numerous times. You know what I mean
to look back what Ricky Henderson did and you go
(38:41):
you have to go. Wow, Now that's incredible. Great to
talk to you. Bring the energy next time if you can. Okay,
I will, Danny, you're the best man. Good back to
you guys soon.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Sean Casey MLB Network analyst and three time All Star.
They're going to have coverage before and after every League
Divisional Series game starting this weekend, just to let people
know if they're not familiar with Sean, he's like that
all the time. I don't think he ever set a
low to a bad mood. He's always like that. Every
(39:12):
time he came in the studio, he came in like
you could his personality arrived before it, like five minutes
before he did. It's like Sean's personality is here, always
fired up, a lot of fun. All right, final hour,
it's going to be a busy final hours to meet Friday.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
Because I want people to stay in their car, hold
off on making a phone call.
