stat of the Day song, a new one that we
(01:11):
will debut coming up. When I bring you a stat
of the day Nix at the Lakers that is spicy,
that's coming up later on tonight. We'll talk a little
bit more about that. And you're starting to see some
movement here. You got a free agency, you had, you know,
the franchise tag moment here for the NFL. It seems
like the Vikings are moving on from Sam Darnold, and
(01:35):
I think we're going to look back on eight days.
Eight days with Sam Darnold in Minnesota probably costume I
don't know, one hundred million dollars because he was playing great.
They were playing great. If he would have gotten hurt
Week fifteen, he probably would have gotten that big contract
from somebody and maybe Minnesota. But the eight days that
(01:57):
he had end of the regular season post and then
they bow out, he was great until he wasn't. And
now all of a sudden, the market seems to be
drying up a little bit. It's like when you go, oh,
if that girl was available, there'd be a lot of
guys who'd want to date dater. Then all of a sudden,
she's available, and you're like, oh, maybe not. Sam Donald
(02:20):
is kind of waiting. Where's he going to land. Daniel Jeremiah,
the draft expert for NFL Network, says, if Sam Darnold
gets to the market, I'd be very curious to see
if Blank got involved. I think he's a clear upgrade
for this team that needs to win right now. Todd
(02:41):
fill in the blank with Daniel Jeremiah's tweet. I'd be
very curious to see if Blank got involved bringing in
Sam Donald the Tennessee Titans. Tennessee Titan, Seaton, what about you,
Indianapolis called woo woo woop. Yeah, the LPs are ready
to win now. Then you feel like that coaching staff
(03:03):
has to win now. This goes back to what I
said a couple of days ago. There are certain coaching
staffs they know they have to win, so the first
eight games, nine games are more important to them than
any other team. The Giants first eight or nine games,
because if you're two and seven, you're probably getting fired.
(03:25):
If you're seven and two, you're probably getting an extension.
The situation that you have with the Colts that you
have with the Giants. Maybe the Arizona Cardinals. There's certain
coaching staffs that have been there, and now you've got
to prove yourself. Can you bring in Sam Darnold. He's
an upgrade over Anthony Richardson. You got to win now,
(03:47):
this is a place where I thought Aaron Rodgers could go.
They've taken on older quarterbacks or maybe they've learned their lesson,
but I thought Aaron Rodgers would be a big upgrade.
And that's a team that can win. Now, really good
running back. I got Rogers playing half of his season
in a dome. You can win the division, be competitive
(04:07):
in the division. You can win ten games, and then
you're a playoff team. Now, what do you do after
that year with Aaron Rodgers? That's the tricky part. But
if I'm a coach trying to hold onto my job,
you know the Giants coaching staff. According to DraftKings, the
Giants are tied with the Titans of who's going to have.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
The number one pick.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Well, the Titans have the number one pick, which tells
you there's a whole lot of momentum of the Giants
going up to get cam Ward. Now, if you're the Giants,
let's just play this out just a hypothetical. I'm going
to give you Sam Darnald and you can draft Travis Hunter.
So I got Malik Neighbors, Travis Hunter, Sam Darnald, How
(04:50):
good am I? Or we're going to trade some first
round picks, maybe a player, and then we go up
to get cam Ward, who is not proven and in
any other draft would probably be the fourth, fifth, sixth
quarterback ticket. But I get the rookie contract. But you
got a coaching staff that needs to win now. But
(05:14):
that's where you can say, if you're the coach, you go,
you know what, we should go get cam Ward and
then you know, well, we need a couple of years
to develop him. Well, then we'll probably have to keep
you on coach. But that might be if I put
it in those terms that Sam Donald's going to cost you.
You're not going to cost you fifty million dollars, but
(05:35):
let's say cost you forty million dollars a year. Maybe
you sign him to a three year deal. I get
Travis Hunter, and I got Malik Neighbors, and I got
them on rookie deals. Okay, now, Sam Donald, kirk Cousins,
Aaron Rod, I mean it's kind of I don't know,
(05:57):
B B minus level C plus, although the Giants should
die for that, you get B minus quarterback play, Like, sure, Well,
what's it say about Minnesota that they're going to stay
with JJ McCarthy, who got hurt, hasn't played yet, and
Daniel Jones, who was the starter with the Giants, is
(06:18):
the backup there at least for now, and they're going
to let Sam Darnald go unless they can work out
a deal. And I think there's still the possibility of
can they work out a deal for Sam Darnald. And
you know, Mike Florio Pro Football Talk had some wild
(06:39):
speculation here, and you know he thought about this, if
JJ McCarthy would ask out of Minnesota. Now this isn't
a report, but let's say you bring back Sam Donald
on a multi year deal. And this is what Mike
Florio was talking about. If you're JJ McCarthy, what would
you do. Would you go to front office and say, hey,
(07:02):
I'm ready to play. Now you were going to make
me the starting quarterback. Sam Donald was going to be
the backup. Now, once again, this is just Mike Florio
speculating here, But if you're JJ McCarthy, you're expecting I
think there was a report that he's already been told
he's going to be the.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Starter next year.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I'm like, okay, But Mike Florio says, what if they
bring back Sam Donald. I haven't heard that, but Mike
would be in the know there. But that's you know,
you still have Russell Wilson, you still have justin Fields.
You have a situation with Shudor Sanders. Is he worth
(07:41):
taking in the top ten, top five? If he's there
for the Giants at three? Do you take him cam Ward?
It feels like that makes a lot of sense that
it doesn't feel like yet that there's a downside. Now
there will be because they're going to put cam Ward
under the microscope soon. We have so much time. Time
(08:02):
is the enemy of prospects, big time prospects. Maybe a
reach for somebody. Maybe there's a question mark. Time is
the enemy because if the draft was tomorrow, I'd be
curious where Shouldoor Sanders would go. The draft is not
until the end of April, and I'm curious what this
(08:22):
time period does good or bad to Shudoor Sanders. All right, set,
we'll come up with the poll question today. A little
later on our good buddy Jim Jackson Fox Sports former
NBA player a lot to talk to him about, including
the big matchup with the Knicks and the Lakers coming
up tonight. I do have over unders here for the
Knicks and the Lakers, scoring wise, um Luca over under tonight, Marvin.
(08:49):
I'll start with you. Twenty eight and a half, all right.
The Knicks are getting four and a half. Paulie over
under Luca tonight, according to.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
DraftKings thirty and a half, Todd twenty seven and a half,
Seaton twenty six and a half, twenty nine and a half.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Lebron James over under tonight.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Paul twenty six and a half.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
Bloop bloop bloop.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Jalen Brunson over under tonight. Seaton twenty five and a half.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Woop ploop ploo.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Guys, Okay, here's the tricky one, the big man who
changed the game. Carl Anthony five and a half should
be Carl Anthony Towns Marvin.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Twenty four and a half, Paul slapping the face twenty
four and a half, twenty five and a.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Half, Oh Todd.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Nineteen and a half, Seaton forty five and one half.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
It's twenty two and a half, twenty two and a half.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
At half.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
I mean it's really like me, which would give him
forty five. Get Michael Steph, you know doctor j. Yeah,
all the grades who have changed the game.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Yeah, alright, mal rushmore right there, Yeah, that's the best.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
All right, seeing what's poll question for the first hour?
Speaker 5 (10:11):
Well we're starting with two actually, uh, what do you
call it? A garass sell yard sale or a tag sail?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Starting with that?
Speaker 5 (10:18):
And then best destination for Sam Donald. Your four options
are the Vikings, Raiders, Colts, Giants.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Do you guys ever play this game of what you
envision a guy to look like in a uniform? And
this started for me with Larry Bird. I couldn't imagine
Larry Bird in a Laker uniform. I could imagine Magic
a little bit more because he played at Michigan State
and they wore green. But Larry wearing the Laker gold,
(10:49):
I just can't see that Sam Darnald wearing a Giant's uniform.
If I'm Sam, I don't want to go back to
where I saw ghosts and you know, the meadowlands. I
don't know if I want to go back there now.
He might not have a big, big opportunity there. Sam
Darnold in a Raiders uniform. Yeah, I can see that.
(11:12):
Here's one for you. Schadoor Sanders in a Saints uniform,
tasty sign.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Up Colorado colors similar, Yes.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Paul Easy transition uniform wise.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Yeah, I can see that.
Speaker 5 (11:29):
I could see he's got the like the flair and
personality to uh, let's sort of lead a city like that.
I could see that.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
That Sunday Night game with the all black Saints uniform
and the brand new retro Dion Sanders a chef's kiss.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Yeah, but you can see, you can envision there's certain
players where you go.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
I could see him in a uniform like.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
That, him, Kamara Olave, that sort of like all standing
there thing.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Hen Yeah, dude, Taysom Hill, Yeah, dude, yeah Hill. Oh sorry,
Yeah yeah. Aaron Rodgers in a Bear's uniform. You couldn't
see it, right, you couldn't see it. It's like there
was a thirty for thirty on the Heisman Trophy candidates
with Peyton Manning and Randy Moss and Charles Woodson, and
there was an opportunity, at least a thought that Bill
Belichick taking over the Jets. Peyton Manning could have come
(12:19):
out after his junior year, could you envision Peyton Manning
in a Jets uniform. But that's what they were talking
about back then. Yes, Paul, your Saints had the number
nine pick of the draft. They were five and twelve.
There are a couple picks after the Raiders.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
What if dot dot Shador Sanders drops a few.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I guess it depends on what happens in free agency
here if they if they are going after somebody but
don't get somebody now, can you go up and get
Shador Sanders? And you know Tom Brady's role in all
of this now, he's known Shaudor Sanders a long time.
Dion brought Tom in to you know, help mentor Shadoor Sanders.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
But the Saints needs something.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Now. I would think if I'm the Saints, I'd get
Tyler Warren out of Penn State. Then it's a no brainer,
like that guy can play right now and could be
an All Pro in a couple of years there. But
you know, we get fascinated, you know, enticed by what
is the shiny object, and Shaudor Sanders will be a
shiny object. And you're still you're starting to see even
(13:30):
more of this people. It's it's like, hey, it's okay
to criticize somebody, So then all of a sudden more
people come forward and start criticizing. That's all it took
is one anonymous coach saying something about should or Sanders.
Then all of a sudden, it's like, hey, you know
I'm here, and you know he can't make all the throat.
You know he's only six to one and whatever. You
know he's not fat. It kind of like, whoa, that
(13:53):
happened quickly. Now that will dissipate. He'll do his pro day,
he'll be great in his interviews, he'll be cares. But
this could be a Dion Sanders backlash from is Dion
trying to dictate where his son goes? And I'll go
back to when he joined us at the Super Bowl
and Dion said he's already started the process of talking
(14:16):
to teams. Now I don't know if he's talking to
teams about you better draft him or teams you better
not draft him. All right, we'll get phone calls coming up.
A couple other items here, Joey Bosa, Chargers say goodbye
to him.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Max Crosby on the same day got a contract extension.
Dk Metcalf wants out okay, the Chiefs have traded an
offensive lineman to the Bears. The Chiefs who need offensive linemen,
trading an offensive lineman to the Bears, who need an
offensive lineman. Ovechkin is nine behind the Great One. Cavaliers
(14:54):
have won twelve in a row, and it's the Knicks
that the Lakers coming up tonight. A lot of topics
to dive into back after this. Fox Sports Radio has

Speaker 2 (16:09):
I didn't plan on watching the Celtics last night, but
then I couldn't take my eyes off the Celtics last night.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
And it's not the guys that you would think.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
It wasn't Jalen Brown and Jason Tatum, Peyton Pritchard and
Derek White. Peyton Pritchard had forty three, Derek White had
forty one, both career highs. They beat the Blazers. Pritchard
and White are the first duo in Boston history to
each score at least forty points in the same game.
Speaker 9 (16:37):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Prichard made ten three pointers, Derek White made nine Wow.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
All right, it's a new addition to the stat of
the Day catalog.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Here. Who is that Marvin?
Speaker 7 (17:11):
That is Royal in Michigan.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Royal in Michigan.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America,
the Official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Peyton Pritchard. I love Peyton Pritchard at Oregon.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
I didn't know if he could play in the NBA,
but he's one of those guys that he had a
lot of energy, never stopped, great shooter and ten three pointers.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Derrick White, mister Olympian had nine.
Speaker 9 (17:37):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
If you would have said, hey, give me the two
guys in Boston history who scored at least forty points
in the same game, you go, oh, Burden McHale of course, right,
Tatum and Brown.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, Tatum and Brown, Yeah, sure it.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, no, no, it's a Peyton Pritchard and Derrick White
forty three and forty one. Shay Gilgis Alexander, speaking of
forty one, had forty one. Since the start of last season,
SGA has thirty or more points ninety times. Next closest
over that span is the Greek Freak with seventy two.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
STATA the j Stata, the j we love your Stata, the.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Day Stata, the j Stanta, the j oh damn give us.
Speaker 7 (18:26):
Stant of them?
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Okay status, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
If you're Brown and Tatum, this can't sit well with
you right that you're not on this list.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Oh, I don't think that would bother me.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
Remember no, this is going back in history. Didn't Kevin
McHale set the Celtics scoring record and four days later
Larry Bird broke it.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Yeah, Larry said to Kevin, you should have scored more,
because that's when Larry torched the Atlanta Hawks In New Orleans,
the Raiders are signing Max Crosby to a three year,
one hundred and six and a half million dollar extension,
so he gets ninety one and a half guaranteed. He's
the highest paid non quarterback in NFL history. Love me
(19:09):
some Max Crosby, but if you're the Raiders now, you
don't want to lose him. But this is where I
always wonder does a team know where they are? You're
in the AFC West. He's a great player, but how
close are you to competing and could you do something
(19:29):
that helps you maybe over the next two years that
will put you in that category. I mean, Patrick Mahomes
is eventually going to get old and act old. But
you know that's a you got justin Herbert, you got
bon Nicks in there, and you're trying to find a quarterback,
and not that you should give him up just so
(19:51):
you can get draft picks, but the Raiders need a quarterback.
Max Crosby's great, but I just kind of look at them.
They're in no man's land. There's there's you know, quite
a few teams that feels like that they're just there
and maybe not going anywhere. Now, we do see that
from last place to first place. It happens a lot
(20:12):
in the NFL. That's not going to happen with the
AFC West with the Raiders. But you got Max Crosby
and on the same day the Chargers said goodbye to
Joey Bosa. Now, the difference between Bosa and Max Crosby
is two years, but boy, it seems like a lot
more than two years. Crosby's great at twenty seven. Joey
(20:34):
Bosa at twenty nine might be one of those guys
that he goes to a team. Maybe he's a third
down specialist. Maybe you're getting for a bargain. He probably
is going to be on two more teams after this,
but at age twenty nine, and he's been injury prone
the last three years. But that one was one of
those little bit of a surprise. But you know, they
(20:56):
saved twenty five million dollars. So it's a smart movie
because Bosa, it felt like, was always injured. And if
you're you know, Jim Harball, he's probably saying, I'm one
guys who are available, and why am I spending this
kind of money on the guy who has the potential
to be very disruptive. I mean it's almost like a
(21:17):
Jadavian Clowney. You know, Jadavian Clowney I think is still
bouncing around never he couldn't miss. Oh my god, the
best pro day ever? Remember the Mothership Teddy Bruski. They
were all out there and they were talking about Jadavion Clowney.
And I made one phone call and it was to
a current player and I said, help me understand this
(21:37):
that this guy can't miss and the person said, no
lower body strength. It's like, oh okay, because he'll be
pushed around lo and behold Jadeveon Clowney. Nice career, but
it wasn't one of those can't miss. It's like when
(21:58):
Reggie Bush came out. We thought, God, Reggie Bush can't miss.
And I talked to a scout. He said, you know,
he can't run between the tackles, and if you're going
to be the running back, you got to be able
to run between the tackles lower body. At USC, they
were so great it didn't matter and he was electric.
But in the NFL it's different, and those proved to
(22:22):
be correct. But Jadavian Clowning had one great play that
was against Michigan and the outback bull and that was it.
We were sold that guy can't miss until he could miss.
They got pushed around a little bit. Yeah, Pauling clown
he had a decent career. He made three Pro Bowls,
(22:43):
two was an alternate. He never had ten plus sacks
in the season. Did he have three plus two alternates
or three total Pro Bowls? Oh, well then I don't
count that. Yeah you're an alternate. Yeah, sorry, So they
made one.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
But he may have been the biggest sure thing number
one pick of the past years non quarterback. Whereas like
there was no discussion when when they were on the clock.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Probably I'm trying to think, well, how many times do
you have a non quarterback?
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Go number one? But yeah, did you look like a
superheroh you did? I mean he's yeah, But.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
That's what I get with DK Metcalf, Like I think
DK Metcalf should be des Bryant, he should be Tarrell Lewins,
he should be unbelievable. Now, all of a sudden, you're going, okay,
once out of Seattle, all right, green Bay? Like where
(23:41):
do you see him going? And he might end his
career where we go?
Speaker 10 (23:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Helly, he only had X number of catches and it
feels like he's a home run hitter where he's great. Hey,
he had a over twenty five yard reception. Okay, I
just think he should be better than what he is.
But it goes back to when he's at Old Miss
and everybody's going, have you seen that guy? You see
(24:07):
him at the combine? Oh, but he was banged up
at Old Miss back injuries. But still in Seattle, he's
a highlight guy. Tyler Lockett, Seattle letting him go as well.
That's kind of an interesting philosophy. I love Tyler Lockett.
I fell in love when he was in college. I
(24:29):
remember coming in on that Monday after watching a k
State game, I go, that dude is unbelievable. And look,
I'm not the noyster Danis, but there are times when
you just look at somebody and you go, he's really good.
I don't know how that translates to the NFL, but
you do fall in love. Like Darren Sprolls once again,
(24:50):
another Kansas State guy.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
He's like, I think it was a Big twelve title game.
Speaker 9 (24:54):
I'm like, God, that guy's awesome.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
I don't know if he can play any NFL, but like,
I fall in love, but that doesn't mean I'm going
to get married to you. I get I'm falling in
love with you right now, but who knows. We may
separate in a couple of years when you get to
the NFL. And but Darren Sproles was a really good player,
really good player.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
Yes, Marvin, there was one guy out of Iowa, Brad Banks,
the quarterback. I was like, this dude's going to change
the game. I'm not sure if you ever played in
the NFL.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
He played for the Jets, but I think they he
was like a wide receiver or a kick returner number twelve.
Speaker 7 (25:30):
That's the different Banks.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
I think you're thinking Brad Smith the Missouri maybe yes, oh, okay,
who played quarterback in Missouri and got a little wide
receiver punt return. Okay, all right, Brad Smith checking.
Speaker 7 (25:42):
Okay, all right, Brad's unite.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
I could do this all I'm.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Profiling here some guy named Brad who wore number twelve
returning kicks.
Speaker 4 (25:52):
You and I used to text each other about Woody Danceler.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Of we loved him Woodrow Danceler.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
But you you know, there's guys who were just great
college players and it you know, they always the whatever
happened to that guy. I'm famous for whatever happened to
that guy, because there'll be a guy you'll see it
and you go, man, that guy is so much fun
to watch.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Chance mart Marvin Austin out of North Carolina the d tackle.
I was like, whoa Cortes Kennedy two point Oh, here
we come.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Damn, that is a random deep cut by you.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
I thought that we were this is what we were
doing here.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Not that deep. Wow.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
That's uh, that is impressive there, all right. So the
Chargers released Joey Bosa. The Raiders are going to pay
Max Crosby DK metcalf once out and Joe Tooney, the
offensive guard for the Chiefs, got traded to the Bears.
And look, Caleb Williams needs to have time. Caleb Williams
(26:52):
has to understand how much time he has. That's really
the key because what you know. You look at Sachson,
you go, well, that offensive line is terrible. Quarterback can
make an offensive line a whole lot better, and an
offensive line can make a quarterback a whole lot better.
But there has to be synchronicity. Caleb Williams can't be
holding onto the ball and he does, and that's why
(27:13):
he sacks sixty eight times.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
He has to get rid of the ball.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
You have to take your losses literally, and that's what
he needs to That's the biggest thing I saw with
him is he was trying to improvise. He was trying
to be spectacular.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
You can't. It either is there or it's not.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
And if you think you're going to outrun out, fox, out, quick,
out smart, think again, they'll eventually catch you. And that
was my biggest problem with Caleb Williams. Do I think
he's going to be a star. Yes, I thought they
were going to be a playoff team.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
But getting Joe Toney, and that's where you go. Man.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
The Chiefs, they got roughed up the offensive line. Well,
Tuney was a guard playing tackle, and you know the
Chiefs will bring his They drafted somebody who will then
go back to left tackle, and they thought, well, he's expendable.
And the Bears are going to use Joe Toney, who
played with the Patriots, probably as a guarden maybe you know,
(28:13):
I don't know how old he is, like thirty two,
and he's got to help the Bears.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
But they do need help. Now.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
That was the key when we talked about the Bears
going into last season. All I wanted to know is
did they improve the offensive line, because if they don't,
it doesn't matter whose quarterback it doesn't. We saw that
with Mahomes twice in the Super Bowl. As great as
he is, he got dominated by the Buccaneers and he
got dominated by the Eagles. So maybe the greatest quarterback
(28:44):
in history is a mere mortal when you don't have
time to throw.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
Yeah, Poey, imagine you're a guy like Joe Toney. He's
got four rings, two with New England and Brady, two
with Mahomes, and now you go play with the Bears.
I know they're not awful. Awful, but that's your career
with always in the playoffs. Yeah, always playing deep and
now totally changed.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Max Crosby was on his podcast The Rush with Max Crosby,
and he talked about who he want as his quarterback
in Las Vegas.
Speaker 11 (29:15):
The first year off an achilles is one of the
hardest things to do. You've seen it happen with Kirk
had it down here and appled with Aaron. I mean,
he struggled, like you said, early on, but he got
better as the season went. I think with all the
doubt and all the negativity around Aaron Rodgers always needs
to retire things like that. You know he's getting caught
by the Jets. I think he's going to come back
and have a I know he's forty two or forty one.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Are you saying MVB.
Speaker 12 (29:40):
No.
Speaker 7 (29:40):
I think he's going to.
Speaker 11 (29:41):
Have a big year this year, and I hope it's
in our town.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
It sounded like always on the verge of saying no, no,
not MVP. But maybe he played great and maybe maybe
an our team. What strong do you feel about that, Max? Yeah,
he's got a lot left.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
Of the tank and thinking, what's that?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Would you say? I think he's wondering.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
Maybe we could pick him up, Like he knew this
is going to be used. Can I get out of this?
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, he kind of caught himself where he's going to
make a declarative statement about Aaron Rodgers being Look, do
I put it past Tom Brady of wanting to bring
in Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
It's a band aid.
Speaker 13 (30:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
If you're Tom Brady and you're going to be that
active in ownership, you want your quarterback. But if you
don't love who's out there, then you know, maybe you
do bring in Aaron Rodgers. Because the curiosity here is
if the Raiders are on the clock and Shadoor Sanders
is there, does Tom Brady pass on a kid that
(30:55):
he has seen grow up he's help mentor to me
would be the real drama there. If they take him, okay,
But it's more if they don't take him. That's where
it would be telling Paulie and I have a first
round bet over under five and a half. First five
and a half picks Shadoor Sanders. I saw where Shudor
(31:16):
was going to interview with the Titans with cam Ward
and I think Abdul Carter, which I thought was interesting,
but who knows that could be a smoke screen with
bringing who you bring in. I understand Abdul Carter and
cam Ward, but Shadoor Sanders unless you move down and
(31:37):
you end up taking Shadoor Sanders. All right, we'll take
a break. Coming up our play of the day. We'll
get to your phone calls, update our poll results after this.

He loose Ramata potty off the drawn loose there and
Ovechkin stores colics so that state picks it up on
the first side of the gold prise.

That's goal number.
Speaker 13 (32:16):
Eights eighty five pears ten away from passing Gretzky.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Thirty two goals this season.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
He scored at least thirty goals in nineteen of his
twenty NHL seasons, most of any player in NHL history.
At his current pace this season, which is slightly above
his career pace, Ovechkin would break the record in the
Capitol's seventy seventh game at the Islanders on Sunday, April sixth.

Speaker 14 (33:15):
He had quite a game last night, wasn't it.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
Dan, Yeah, Yeah, your Blazers look really good against the Celtics.
Speaker 14 (33:23):
And uh, you know, what do you think of Tamani
Kamara out of Dayton. I mean, look at what he's
done this year. I mean, in his second year in
the NBA, he was just Defensive Player of the Year.
He's had over one hundred and eighty stops, defensive stops.
He's second in the NBA and he leads the NBA
and taking charges. He's took in more charges the entire
(33:43):
than the entire Celtics roster.
Speaker 10 (33:45):
Brother.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
All right, well, thank you Sean didn't think we were
going to get that breakdown today, but thank you for that.
Rich In Athens, Hi, Rich, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 12 (33:57):
Hey, so, I have a quick question for my new
favorite Dannette mister Marvin Trance. I wonder if Marv views
himself as the Sheldon Cooper of the DP Show. As
we all know Sheldon Cooper photographic memory. Marv, I believe
has a little bit of a photographic memory when it
comes to sports trivia and knowledge and teams and stats.
(34:21):
He gets it right all the time and it's very impressive.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
Okay, Marvin, would you like to answer that.
Speaker 7 (34:28):
I take that as a compliment with the Sheldon Cooper reference.
Speaker 6 (34:33):
I didn't have a life growing up so sports, sports encyclopedias,
anything like that. I was reading it, I was watching
ESPN Classic all that stuff. You all that, so I
guess so, yes, see, who is Sheldon Cooper. He's the
main character in The Big Bank Theory played by Jim Parsons.
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Oh yeah, so he's like a real like no it
all yeah love was his catchphrase, thank you ton, Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
I think what's most impressive about Marvin is what he
knows about stuff before he was born or before he's
of age to watch it. His knowledge of eighties nineties
stuff is really impressive.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Congratulations Marvin, Oh, thank you for not having a life.
Speaker 7 (35:17):
It wasn't much going on as the only child.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Also, yeah, we got to meet Marv's mom and his grandmother.
They stopped by the man Cave a couple of days ago.
Your mom raised a good man and me.
Speaker 7 (35:29):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Yes, your mom looks tough. She looks like she would
be tough.
Speaker 7 (35:35):
Yeah. I always say this about her. She's cool until
she's not.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah, she looks like and she's military correct, so she
got no nonsense in her.
Speaker 7 (35:44):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
I noticed that right away, Yes, very much.
Speaker 11 (35:48):
So.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, went in for a hug, and then I didn't
know if she was going in for the hug. Felt
like I was going in for more of the hug
with your mom, and then all of a sudden, she
was like, just quick and that's it. She would take
the poll results if you can from the first forty
eight minutes of the program.
Speaker 5 (36:04):
Yeah, we got up there right now. The best destination
for Sam Donald. Your options are the Minnesota Vikings, Los
Angeles Raiders, Indianapolis Colts, or the New York Giants.
Speaker 7 (36:15):
Do you want to guess.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
The Colts.
Speaker 5 (36:21):
They're in second place with twenty nine percent of the vote. Okay, Raiders,
they're in third place with twenty six percent of the vote.
The Giants. The Giants are in last place with five
percent of the vote. That would be your Minnesota Vikings
coming in with about forty one percent.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Mmmm, stay right where he is.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Okay, boy, that can't make JJ McCarthy happy. Mike Florio
floated this out on Pro Football Talk. He'll join us
coming up in about a half hour. That if you
bring back Sam Donald, does JJ McCarthy say no, I'm
not going to hang around for a couple.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Of years here.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
I don't know what leverage would have to do that,
but we'll talk to Florio about that. Eight seven seven
three DP Show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com,
Twitter handle a DP show Jeff and Tampa.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
Good morning, Jeff. What's on your mind today?
Speaker 13 (37:13):
Good morning DP five three one fifty five. This course
is kind of for you, went for Paulie. Having grown
up in the neighborville of our area of been a
Bears fan all my whole life, and I know we
desperately need to improve the offensive line, and Caleb does
hold the ball too long. But if Genty is sitting
there at ten, do you look into that becaus then,
(37:34):
like you know, starting the rug game, or you just
focus on the old.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
Lot breaking down the Bears. I would say, don't take
a running back early. That's a luxury pick and you
need everything but that, especially offensive defensive line. Ashton Genty
is for teams that are already set.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Yeah, but I see Ashton Genty with the Raiders and
the Cowboys in mock drafts and those teams aren't set.
But if I'm the Bears, if you want to develop
Caleb Williams, then strengthen your offensive line. But Ashton Genty
is going to be a top fifteen pick. And you know,
I saw the Raiders, and I saw the Cowboys and
(38:12):
a lot of mock drafts there. Mark in Virginia him, Mark,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 10 (38:18):
A DP got a question for you and the Danets.
What sports deathbed confession would you most like to hear?
For example, if it's Franco Harris and the Immaculate Reception
that he might say the ball touched the ground, or
with Michael Jordan and the flu game that he might
(38:38):
say I was hung over. So what sports deathbed confession
would you in the Danets, Well, I.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
Think Franco made the catch. That wasn't the controversy. It
was who did the ball hit you? Jack Tatum hitting
Frenchy Fuqua, and if it's off an offensive player, you
know there's a rule that's him back then. But Franco
made the catch. To me, the most incredible thing out
(39:07):
of the Immaculate Reception is the camera work that focused
on Franco Harris, who was just running down the field.
But I remember Tony Dungee telling me when he was
with the Steelers, Franco ran out every play, no matter
what it was, he always ran as to the end zone.
And you know, the greatest play, biggest play, and one
(39:30):
of the biggest plays in NFL history, was him just
doing what he did in practice, always hustling, and he
was there for the ricochet scoring the touchdown. And also
the fact that we don't know where that football is.
Those are two of the more interesting things with that
Jordan on his deathbed. That's not what I want to
know from Mike. I want to know about gambling and
(39:54):
did you get suspended by the commissioner I don't care.
Speaker 3 (39:58):
Do I think he was hungover? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Probably so, remember it was the flu and then it
was food poisoned. Like we can't even get the story right.
Do I think it was probably? Maybe combination? Maybe maybe,
but that I would want to know, did Mike get
suspended for gambling by the commissioner? Anybody else that you care? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (40:23):
I want to know why Bill Belichick didn't play Malcolm Butler.
Speaker 9 (40:27):
In that game.
Speaker 3 (40:30):
Yeah, he's holding on to that, Yes, Todd.
Speaker 7 (40:33):
I want to hear from Barry Bonds to finally admit
publicly he cheated at how he cheated, how much he took,
what he took, and everything associated with that.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
It feels I mean, I feel like I already know
that story that his trainer went to prison, but Barry,
you know, tried to skirt that that, Hey, I only
took what he gave me.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
Yeah, Like what if on his.
Speaker 5 (40:56):
Deathbed he got there and you're like, so why did
you do everything?
Speaker 3 (41:00):
And be like I didn't, very very you can be
honest with me. I am being honest. I didn't. You
can tell me I did not. What if the truth
is he really didn't. The truth is the truth.
Speaker 5 (41:15):
The truth is I really didn't. I really didn't do
everything they said I did.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Put your head like it's so much bigger. That happens sometimes,
Yeah it does.
Speaker 7 (41:24):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
I'm retaining water, is what I'm doing. Mike Floria from
Pro Football Talk will join us. Why this mere campaign
with Shudhor Sanders and how much will that affect his
draft stock? One hour in the books on this Thursday.
Two more to go with Fritzy Seaton, Marv Pauli, and
yours truly back after this
