Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We did it. I think we did it. We hope
to do it later on tonight. Welcome to the program.
That's the Sports Emmys I'm talking about. We've got a
party bus ready to go. Only beer the backroom, guys,
one hard alcohol, hard liquor. I go, no, no, on
the way back if you want to, we can do that.
(00:26):
Maybe some champagne, but we're ready to go. We've got
everything in place, everybody's got their outfits. We've been told
thirty seconds or less for the acceptance speech. Really yes,
I got a note that said, hey, let's be optimistic.
If you happen to win, you get thirty seconds to
then say what you need to say with the acceptance speech.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
But we could go oh and six oh for six here. Yeah,
maybe we just do a one word acceptance speech.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
We would the one word be thanks. Just walk off
and that's it. Thanks, drop the mic.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Just leave the mic as is, just walk up, hold
it up, say thanks, and then walk off.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
How about we do a walk off where we say
thanks and we leave the Sports Emmy up there.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Oh, like a wrestler leaving his shoes asy retire.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yeah, we just put it up there and say, hey,
it's not about the hardware. We know we're great. Thank you, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
There was an Academy Awards years ago where Joe Peshi
won Best Supporting Actor, I think for Goodfellas, and his
speech was five seconds. He goes, thank you, thank you
very much, and he walked.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
It's not possible if Todd's on stage with us for
that to happen, Yes, tun.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
Or we go way over thirty seconds just to see
what happens. Did they blink light, do they play music?
What exactly are the steps taken to rush us up
the stage. It's not a curiosity of it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
It is funny, but I've been there when people have
gone They've blown right through that stop sign, and they'll
do a couple of minutes and then people start to get,
you know, nervous, and because you get people up there
who aren't normally up in front of people, you know,
behind a microphone. The producer gets up there and he
wants to blab blah blah blah blab.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Yes, you really want your category to go before they
start giving out the awards. Like every year someone gets nominated, like, oh,
this is your Award, Jimmy Lipper, You're winning the Skippy
P Vanguard Award.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
And then the guy comes up. He's holding a speech
and he's.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Like, I started out as a boardop, a young man,
eager out of college. You're like, oh crap, we still
got four.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
More of these things. Okay. You know who is being honored,
like the big honor This is awkward. The guy who
is being honored tonight. Every year they honored somebody Lifetime
Achievement award. I'm gonna give you a hint, and I'm
going to give you two words in that hint. Cream Rents.
(02:57):
David Hill I started five Sports, the famous Aussie who
had the words to me when I interviewed with him
a lunch prior to the Super Bowl in Phoenix. What
was that nineteen ninety six and I thought I was
getting the host job on Fox and uh that's when
(03:17):
he left me with the words, I've got two words
for you, cream rints. I actually got to respect him,
but if you see his hair, I could have said, David,
how about some cream rints too for that moss you
got there?
Speaker 6 (03:29):
Dude?
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, I mean I could have said that if I
run into him tonight I'm going to say, David cream Rants, yes, Todd, what.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
If he actually shares that cream Rins story with everybody
just looking back in his career.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
I don't think anybody's going to care that. David Hill say.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
I had one guy wrong. I knew everyone that was
great ahead of time. I knew who to hire, but
there was one mistake I made. Here's the cream Rent story.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I'd like to shoe m He didn't make a mistake,
probably in his mind, hired the right people. It's okay,
I'm over it. Fine, it's only thirty years ago, right,
But that's tonight, Big Sports, Emmy Night. Got our speeches ready,
checking out the backroom guys. Yeah, they're going to on
(04:12):

and tomorrow. Talked to Albert Breer the Monday Morning Quarterback.
You'll join us coming up in a little bit. You
(04:53):
have hockey tonight Panthers and the Hurricanes Game one, and
you have the NBA tonight Timberwolves and the Thunder Game one.
As the Thunder are a big favorite tonight, I think
last time I looked, they're a seven and a half
point favorite. The Knicks in their Game one against the Pacers.
Right now, the Knicks are a four and a half
point favorite at home. So the NFL Owners meetings, the
(05:16):
Packers adjust the tush push proposal. We'll talk about this
coming up, because I was told yesterday they must simplify
the language. This a source told me. If they're going
to eliminate the tush push, simplifying the language so the
owners understand exactly what you can and can't do. And
(05:38):
it looks like that's what they're trying to do. They've actually,
I think taken out a paragraph here of the proposal
for the tush push what you can and cannot do.
Have that for you coming up in a little bit.
Fred Warner. The Niners locked up Fred Warner, who is
a Hall of Famer in waiting. You know he's one
of those Oh that's right, he's in on every play.
(06:00):
It feels like there's certain guys where you go. I
don't know if I'd spend a lot of money on
that position, middle linebacker. But Fred Warner, he's great. And
you know they had Patrick Willis. Luke Keikley is another
guy who got made famous by playing that position because
it felt like he was in on every tackle. And
Fred Warner is a wonderful player. And I don't know
(06:23):
how the Niners are affording all these players. It just
it feels like, I mean, Brandon Ayuk they overpaid for greatly.
They got him, and then Kittle got re up, brock
Perty just got paid. Trent Williams, you got Fred Warner here,
McCaffrey gets good coin man. You keep saying, you know
they have a fantasy football team. It feels like it's
(06:44):
like we're gonna take that guy and that guy and
that guy and that guy. How do we afford him?
I don't know, But Fred Warner got paid and the
Eagles extend head coach Nick Sirianni. Well, it was what
we're talking about. Maybe last February, we're talking about can
Nick Sirianni survive? And now all of a sudden he's
(07:07):
getting extended. Now, this won't be the last time I
think we asked the question is he going to get fired?
Because it feels like, hey, they won Uh, he got
rid of coordinators to save his job, and then all
of a sudden, you get Saquon Barkley. If I'm Nick Sirianni,
I say a thank I send a thank you to
the Giants front office. I just say, hey, thanks for
(07:28):
being stupid and allowing us to get Saquon Barkley. Thanks
for the new contract. By the way, I'm going to
be around to haunt you for a while. See what's
the poll question today? Well we got a couple of
them here. We got one here from Paulie. Would you
rather be, hand down, the best middle linebacker in the
NFL or the tenth best quarterback that old Paul Okay?
(07:51):
Would I rather be?
Speaker 6 (07:53):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Is the general consensus? Fred Warner is the best middle
linebacker in football? I think so okay? So would I
rather be Fred Warner or Dak Prescott?
Speaker 4 (08:04):
You think he's right around the ten spot in the rankings.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
I think that's generous. Yeah, it is probably more like
Geno Smith.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I could go by NFL dot Com.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Okay, are we including the money that you make?
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Oh, but if.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
You're the tenth best quarterback, you're not a superstar.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
You're paid well, Okay, would I rather be Fred Warner
or Geno Smith? Because Gino makes more money? Fred is
going to go to the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It's probably some combination of like Jared Goff, Geno Smith,
brock Purdy. That's probably like nine, ten, eleven ish.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
It's hard to pass up on getting fifty million dollars,
so you have to factor that in if that matters too.
You're making fifty as opposed to twenty five. Correct, But
Fred Warner is one of the greats and will be
a Hall of Famer when it's all said and done.
I don't think the quarterbacks we've mentioned are going to
go into the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Like Jordan Love on NFL dot Com two months ago,
is ranked as the tenth best quarterback in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
He's good.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Let me see my voice quote.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
He's good.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Yeah, Okay, he doesn't seem to be on the Hall
of Fame path yet, but.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I need somebody who's played a longer.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Justin Herbert was ranked eleventh.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Yeah, but you got to get somebody who because Fred
Warner's this is his last contract, he'll probably play two
to three more years. And that's hit Gino Smith, who's
going to play two to three more years and then
he's done. Rock Perty is going to play a long time.
Jordan Love's gonna play a long time. So I'd have
to have something that, you know, the careers equal out
(09:39):
a little bit with how long they've played how much
more they're gonna play. But Fred Warner, he's a great player.
He just gets lost on that team because that team
is so you know, star loaded, front loaded with stars. Yeah, Marvin,
he'd be.
Speaker 8 (09:53):
More famous if he was an edge rusher. I think
the game has changed so much where guys like Michaeh
Parsons shirt and have dual carter they would have been
middle linebackers twenty five years ago.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Well, Michael Parsons kind of plays both. I mean that
that's the value that you have with him that you know,
looking back in college, they weren't quite sure, you know,
what position he would play. And I still go back
to that draft when my source said he's the best
player in the draft. It's just he brings baggage with him.
And this was, you know, a scout who said that,
(10:25):
and Michael Parsons, I don't know exactly if you say,
you know what his baggage is. I don't even know
what it was going into the draft. But he's proven
to be a you know, a Hall of famer. It
feels like in waiting there, but he does both. He's
a hybrid, and that's what Lawrence Taylor was. Lawrence Taylor
was a linebacker, but then all of a sudden, it's like, hey,
(10:47):
get up on the edge and you knew he was
coming and there was nothing you could do about it.
Michael Parsons is certainly like that. Yes, don I know how.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Revered the quarterback position is in the NFL and all
of sports. But when you want to be all things considered,
considered the best at what you do, even if it's
the second or a third or fourth best position, or
or however you want to rank the most important position
they're going to given sport that you're the best at that.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Okay, I'm gonna ask you, though, do you want to
be Geno Smith or Fred Warner?
Speaker 5 (11:17):
I think I want to be Fred Warner. Okay, And
he's definitely a glitz to walking around saying you're a quarterback,
even a top ten quarterback, but you're tenth, fifteenth or whatever.
But the best at your position is it's kind of
a big deal you get, you know, with the Mike
Singletaries of the world and the Erlackers or whatever.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I want to be part of that group. Okay, But
Geno Smith is making what forty five million dollars a year? Yeah,
Seaton up.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
To this point, they've made about the exact same amount
of money.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
I you know, the thing for Fred Warner to me is,
I mean, that's that's a healthy living anyway for a
normal persons. Sure, but he's on a competitive team, and man,
I'll take that that there's this there's a huge amount
of value in that then just you know, like monetary.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yeah, okay, but that would probably be you know, the
comparison I would use because Fred's in is what early thirties.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
Maybe he's turning twenty nine this season, okay. Man four
out of the last five years first Team All Pro
middle linebacker you're going to the Hall of Fame if
you do that.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Yes, yes, he's a great player. There's certain players where
you go, Damn, he's in on like Polamalu did that,
Like you just say he's in on it, Junior sayout
every play. It felt like Luke Keikley every play. You know.
Rokwan Smith is another one, that great middle linebacker as well.
(12:40):
That used to be you know, the position certainly when
he talked about defense, but you had your your front
line that geared everything to you. And that's why Singletary
and Budkus and Nichke and Jack Lambert they were ray Lewis.
They're in on all the tackles because the line allows
that to happen. I mean, you still have to make
the tackles. But that's where we focused in on Mike
(13:02):
Singletary's beady eyes there he was waiting.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yes see, Yes, it feels like the position too that
you become a head coach after like the middle linebacker
and then you transition right into head coaching after that.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Kind of see the field. He's like, hey, you know,
I don't know, Singletary wasn't a very good coach. Is
pretty good, but yeah, Yeah, well Rabel didn't get dinged up.
I'm sure like Mike Singletary, did you know ray Lewis
did those guy don't know? You want those guys to
be your your head coach. Okay, yes, Marman.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
And Fred Warner has got to play that. He's mastered
the punch, like when he hits you and he punches
to get the ball out with the fumble. Unbelievable. Best
linebacker on football, but not as famous as you know
we think he should be.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, because bo Say is more famous than Fred Warner
on that defense. Okay, correct, because he's in edge rusher.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Play the day coming up phone calls as well, Settle
on a poll question eight seven to seven to three
DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot com. NFL owners' meetings
going on today and tomorrow. If you go back to
two thousand and five, we had, you know, language that
outlawed the tush push forever. And why they brought it
(15:52):
back I have no idea, and they said it was
hard to adjudicate. I was like, okay, how about we
just come up with language. Can you come up with language?
You know the problem is with the NFL, they add
more language, they don't take it away. And then all
of a sudden you started to hear that, oh this
(16:12):
is unfair, this isn't a football play. And then I go, okay, well,
which team is going to have a proposal to get
rid of the toush push? And we found out it
was the Green Bay Packers. And we had Matt Lafleur,
the Packers head coach. He joined us at the draft
and we went back and forth on this, and I
think we found out that maybe the Packers were told
(16:37):
to have a proposal to get rid of the tush push,
the brotherly shove, that the Packers came out the guys
are at kins. Would you have liked that to have
remained anonymous that there's a team, that it is what
it is.
Speaker 11 (16:52):
We might have had some nudging towards that, but I'm
not really going to get into that.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Did the commissioner say we need somebody to speak? I
wouldn't say that because I don't think the commissioner wants this.
Non I can I say what I think happened. Sure, Okay,
I think the commissioner nudged you guys to say, look,
if you have a grievance, put your name to it.
I'll owe you one. And because I don't think he
wants that play to stay in.
Speaker 11 (17:18):
The game, Well, it's not a great football play. And
then certainly when you look at what happened in the
Washington Commander game where Frankie lou Whu's launching over the top,
which I mean it's a tough play to stop. We've
actually had more success, and we had some studies ran
we've had more success with a traditional quarterback sneak than
(17:39):
we have with you know, whatever you want to call it,
brotherly show.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I think Philadelphia is still going to be dominating with
the quarterback sneak. I agree because of that line in
that quarterback.
Speaker 11 (17:49):
I mean, they do a great job, and I mean
Jalen Hurts can squat the house.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
They do a good job of just you know.
Speaker 11 (17:58):
Winning the line of scrimmage. It all starts right there
and they get really low and they've they've perfected it.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Keep in mind that they were going to vote on
this the last time they all got together, and what happened.
They tabled it. Well, they tabled it because the commissioner,
in my opinion, didn't have the votes to get rid
of the tush push that's it. And then to say
to the packers, hey, I mean Matt Lafleur's basically saying that.
(18:27):
They said, hey, we're going to nudge you a little bit,
put your name to it, and then you know, maybe
down the road you do a solid for the packers
in some way, shape or form. I don't know if
it's quid pro quo, but hey, you guys are going
to take a little heat because then what happened. All
packers can't stop it, so they want to get rid
of it. It feels like the packers did the NFL
(18:50):
a solid and then put their name to it. I
don't know what they get back, but they got the draft.
Maybe you get another draft in there some down the road.
And from what I was told yesterday that I passed
on to you is you got to simplify the language.
That was almost the homework assignment by the NFL. Now
(19:12):
this is my opinion only from information I have. You
know that I was told, and nobody has backed this up.
But I'm telling you what I was told. Simplify the language,
and then there's a real chance. I don't think that
the NFL doesn't want this play. I don't think the
commissioner wants this play because esthetically it's not a great
(19:33):
looking play and it's very, very predictable. And I stand
by what I said. That offensive line, with that quarterback,
they're still going to be unstoppable when it comes to
quarterback snakes. They are because he can squat six hundred pounds. Okay,
(19:55):
that's unheard of, and he's six feet tall. By the
time he's squats down, he goes forward quarterback sneak with
a little momentum, he's down to about five to five,
and then you're just not going to get low and
stop them. They will still be extremely successful. Here is
the amended rule. It's Rule twelve, Section one, Article four.
(20:17):
By the way, so assisting the runner in interlocking interference,
no offensive player may push or pull a runner in
any direction at any time, or lift him to his feet. Now,
they did take out a paragraph here, it's you know,
the paragraph that said use interlocking interference by grasping a
(20:40):
teammate or by using his hands or arms to encircle
the body of a teammate in an effort to block
an opponent. Or then they kept this in push or
throw his body against a teammate to aid him in
an attempt to obstruct an opponent, or recover a loose ball,
or assist the runner, except by individually blocking opponents for him.
(21:03):
The penalty for doing this is a loss of ten yards.
They're trying to do player safety. The problem is they
don't have the data. If they had the data, then
this would be gone. The problem is that they don't.
So they're worried about player safety, but also pace of
(21:27):
play and the aesthetic. Now, you don't want this to
look like you're singling out the Eagles. That was another
thing I was told. You want to do it in
a way that feels like it's the league as a whole,
not the Eagles. Well we all know it's the Eagles.
I mean even the Buffalo Bills with his second best
at doing this and what happened in the most important
(21:48):
quarterback sneak of their season, Josh Allen got stopped. But
that goes back to what I'm saying. Josh Allen is,
you know, six' five two. Forty But Jalen herds with
trying to get this play and be, successful is built
for this. Play Josh allen isn't because he's almost too
(22:08):
big of a. Target Jalen hurts will still be, successful
and so with The eagles with this. Play but that's
going to be a big topic And Albert brier will
join us from the owner's. Meetings but why they allowed
this to come? BACK i still think there's a, simplic simplification.
Here you're not allowed to be behind the runner and
(22:29):
assist the, runner. Period that's. It if you put yourself
in that, position we're going to flag you on. It
you just know that it's a no, no that's. It
or if you want to say anything that is inside
the tackles the tackle, box you cannot assist a runner
(22:49):
if you want to do it that. Way BUT i
would still just say you cannot assist a. Runner you can't,
push you can't, pull you can't. Assist that's it. Done
and then you let teams. Know you, know you can't
crack back block anymore on a punt or a kickoff.
Return they know, it so you don't do. It you
(23:12):
can't put your, hands you can't have a three hundred
pound lineman Behind Jalen. Hurts you can't Have Dallas goddard
there pushing him from. Behind you can't do. It that's
all you need to. Say can't line up that. Way
it's a quarterback. Sneak you. Know the interesting part Is
Tom brady was as good at the quarterback sneak as
(23:32):
any quarterback in. History And tom's not an imposing, guy
not a big, guy not necessarily a great offensive, line
but he was so strategic and where he went either
left or, right off the center or straight. Ahead but
this is. Different you, know the, optics the aesthetics of
it don't look good because it looks like a. Scrum
(23:54):
it looks like. RUGBY i don't have any problem with.
It they figured out some. Thing they mastered it everybody
else has the same opportunity to do, it and you know,
what nobody else has come. Close now it feels like
THE nfl is saying we're going to do this and
penalize The Philadelphia. Eagles BUT i think they're going to
(24:16):
get rid of it because that's why they tabled it
in the first. Place chris And. Syracuse, Hi, chris what's
on your mind? Today?
Speaker 6 (24:23):
Hey thank?
Speaker 10 (24:23):
You?
Speaker 12 (24:24):
Dan, HEY i wanted to get in AND i just
wanted to make sure to wish you guys good luck.
Tonight AND i think you're going to get off the
snide lucky number, seleven make that, seven so good.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Luck.
Speaker 12 (24:34):
Hey as long as you're talking about the tush push
a couple, COMMENTS i totally agree with. You you, know
the commissioner has come out and he says there's no,
data but their doctors feel that there's a high probability
of catastrophic injury on the. Play now you could say
that on any play in THE. Nfl AND i think you're.
Right he wants it. Out he thinks it's a boring
play and he'd much rather had teams on third and
(24:55):
one and fourth and one go play action or. Something and,
again to your, Point philly's not going to miss a.
BEAT i read something where three or four years ago
they did a survey back or a study back to
nineteen eighty five where third and one in fourth and,
ONE qb sneaks are successful eighty eight percent of the.
Time and as you said With Jalen, hurts that they're
(25:15):
going to they won't miss a. Beat And, dan it's
funny WHENEVER i hear the term push, PUSH i don't know.
WHY i always think of The Ice bowl When Bart's
starr on fourth and goal at the one won the
championship by A qb. Sneak AND i Saw Jim taylor
once had a. Documentary he was narrating it and he
pointed out that the first three times he got the
(25:36):
ball on the one and because of the, ice he
could not get, in he couldn't get. Footing So Bart
star figured out was falling and get it and he
won the. Championship And Jim taylor Said Vince lombardi And
Bart starr were the only two that knew it was
going to be quarterback. Sneak everybody Thought taylor was going
to get the ball, again including, him and he said
he was going full, board his momentum took him right
(25:58):
into Bart starr's butt and he couldn't sup because of the.
Ice and he said that iconic photo Of taylor with
his hands up in the. Air everybody thought he was signaling,
touchdown we won the, championship but he was saying he
wanted the official to know because he knew would be a.
PENALTY i am not pushing them. In there is no
push push.
Speaker 2 (26:15):

number seven for, you so you guys will be walking
away with the trophy too. Common you know yesterday you
Said jannis to The Cleveland. CALVES i agree with. THAT

Darius garland complimentary guards or Like Drew holiday instead of
(26:43):
A Donovan Mitchell Dame lillard type of guard where they're
more all. DOMINANT i think that would be a very
successful team that could get rid Of Jared, allen, Keep Evan,
Mobley Darius garland And Jannis. Antetokumpo also, yesterday thanks for

Speaker 3 (29:57):
Would you rather be the best middle linebacker or the
tenth best?
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Quarterback right?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Now the best middle linebackers are running away with that,
one BUT i think that will change. Soon we also
put up there a random one THAT i. Had when
you hear, oilers you think of a football team or
a hockey. Team right, now football team's got sixty percent
of that. Vote, okay that'll, Change.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
TIM i did love The Houston. Oilers they were a fun.
Team Bum, Phillips Earl campbell and he Had Warren, Moon Ernest, Gibbons, Yes, Mormon, Heywood, Jeffries, Yeah, Heywood.
Jefferies we see out of LIKE Nc state something like. That, Yes, Todd.
Speaker 5 (30:35):
Kenny burrow And Curly coulp And, pastorini all those guys so.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Much Dante, Pastorini, Dante, Yeah, Dan, Pastorini Dante. Pastorini let
me See walk In. Chicago Hey, walk what's on your mind? Today?
Speaker 6 (30:52):
Hey loo's?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Up.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
Dan i'm just, wondering if THE nfl were to adopt
your idea on the whole tush push, thing would you
make the play? Reviewable?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Sure ALL i care about is you, know we talk
about reviewable. Now it used to be instant, replay and
then it you, know it became anything but. Instant now it's.
Replay now it's. Reviewable like we keep changing the. LANGUAGE
i want the game to move at a steady. PACE
(31:23):
i watch, it you KNOW nba sometimes those final five
minutes it's just. Interminable it's, just oh my, gosh let's
speed this. Up but with THE, nfl if you if
you have the, technology don't have the, technology if you're
not using the, technology and the time in between, plays
can you have you, know five sets of eyes at
(31:45):
THE Nfl home office that, says, oh you know, what
not a, penalty oh? Penalty like why does it take
so long to come up with whatever your opinion is on?
This but, yeah if you want to review, it but
do it in a timely man it should be you,
know they should have a clock on. That this is
(32:05):
the amount of time the officials in THE nfl get
to use to review something because after a, while it's,
like you, know you want to see, another you, know
another and, another and now you're slowing down the pace of.
Play it's still this is. Entertainment you want to make
sure if you're taking away something that's esthetically, boring like
(32:26):
the tush, push THEN i think you got to apply
that same kind of logic that every other, play like
let's speed this, up let's get this, moving let's make
the call. Here you want to review, it do, it
maybe not in an, instant but do it in a timely. Fashion, Yes.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
PAULINE i saw an article From Sports Business journal a
few years ago about this. Topic why is there not
a clock on? Replay and they didn't want to be
hamstrung and if they got into a situation where a
playoff game where they weren't, sure and they had to
take multiple looks at, it and they didn't want to
be limited with a. Clock that was a long time.
Ago but now it's the only THING i saw.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Because we get to see these replays and then it
feels like there's another wave of replays. There but, yeah
in a timely. Fashion, yes if it means you can
get the play, right then get the play, right or
don't use, it like make up your. Mind you can't
sort of, go, hey you, know we got all these angles.
(33:25):
Here remember for, YEARS i kept, saying they got to use,
pylon they got to put a camera in the, pylon
like it just made. Sense, therefore you had that camera
right at the goal line and you'd get unbelievable. Angles
and it took years for them to finally and maybe
they couldn't, find you, know a camera that was going
to fit in and durable and all those. Things now
we just take it for. GRANTED i, mean we take
(33:47):
it for granted that it's going to take a while
to render an opinion on a. Play you, know it's
just like get the batter in the batter's, Box like
we allowed it for such a long period of. Time
it's like, yeah you know you gotta step out and
just and then okay and then step out and no
get in the batter's. Box let's go take a. Break
here early poll, results more phone, calls and Our play

(35:39):
rick what's on your mind? Today Hey?
Speaker 6 (35:42):
DAD i think we're hyper focused on the touch.
Speaker 7 (35:46):
Push my lines literally Picked montgomery up and carry them eight.
YARDS i always See Penna sill shoving him over the goal,
line SO i don't know if we're going to have
to keep him in the. Tackles this new rule that
we're thinking, About but it happens more than just a twitch,
push don't you?
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Think, yes it. Does all you have to do is
say you cannot assist a runner from. Behind that's. It
once you start flagging teams taking away, touchdowns don't you,
know the message will be? Sent?
Speaker 7 (36:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Pull could you cut it down to you can't assist
the runner because you're not allowed to pull. Either that's
still in, place by the, way you know pulling?
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Rule, yeah, yeah you can't assist the. Runner that's a short. Rule. Yeah, Yeah, see.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
Then wouldn't that also include if you said you can't
assist the, runner wouldn't that also include blocking in front of?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Them, no but you're not touching the runner right to.
See this is.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Why so my point is you have to deliberately make
these rules more, wordy because then it's nothing but endless
loopholes that then is going to be debated.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Constantly you're not allowed to have you can't assist the
runner with. Contact you can't touch, him you can't grab,
him you can't pull, him you can't, push you can't lift.
Him that's it, Nothing and you know where it'll get
around after a. While it will then they'll be, like,
hey all, right we're just. BLOWING i, mean they played
(37:10):
the game for decades and nobody was doing. This you
could still do. This you just say you're not allowed
to push or pull or lifts.
Speaker 5 (37:19):
It.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Uh kevin In, California, Hi, kevin what's on your mind? Today?
Speaker 7 (37:25):
YEAH i actually have an idea to make the replays.
Speaker 6 (37:28):
Better but on the touch, push what did you gave
half the? Touchdown whoever pushed them?
Speaker 7 (37:32):
In that would kind of eliminate.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
The then you'd have runners saying, no, no, no no,
no don't touch, me don't don't touch. Me we missed
his instant replay proposal, There, marvin you hung up on.

Speaker 4 (39:46):
When they invented the term sex in the late seventies early,
eighties that put a value on defensive ends and rush,

what happens. Did they blink light, do they play music?
What exactly are the steps taken to rush us up
the stage. It's not a curiosity of it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
It is funny, but I've been there when people have
gone They've blown right through that stop sign, and they'll
do a couple of minutes and then people start to get,
you know, nervous, and because you get people up there
who aren't normally up in front of people, you know,
behind a microphone. The producer gets up there and he
wants to blab blah blah blah blab.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Yes, you really want your category to go before they
start giving out the awards. Like every year someone gets nominated, like, oh,

P Vanguard Award.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Like, I started out as a boardop, a young man,
eager out of college. You're like, oh crap, we still
got four.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
More of these things. Okay. You know who is being honored,
like the big honor This is awkward. The guy who
is being honored tonight. Every year they honored somebody Lifetime
Achievement award. I'm gonna give you a hint, and I'm
going to give you two words in that hint. Cream Rents.
(02:57):
David Hill I started five Sports, the famous Aussie who
had the words to me when I interviewed with him
a lunch prior to the Super Bowl in Phoenix. What
was that nineteen ninety six and I thought I was
getting the host job on Fox and uh that's when
(03:17):
he left me with the words, I've got two words
for you, cream rints. I actually got to respect him,
but if you see his hair, I could have said, David,
how about some cream rints too for that moss you
got there?
Speaker 6 (03:29):
Dude?
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, I mean I could have said that if I
run into him tonight I'm going to say, David cream Rants, yes, Todd, what.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
If he actually shares that cream Rins story with everybody
just looking back in his career.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
I don't think anybody's going to care that. David Hill say.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
I had one guy wrong. I knew everyone that was
great ahead of time. I knew who to hire, but
there was one mistake I made. Here's the cream Rent story.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I'd like to shoe m He didn't make a mistake,
probably in his mind, hired the right people. It's okay,
I'm over it. Fine, it's only thirty years ago, right,
But that's tonight, Big Sports, Emmy Night. Got our speeches ready,
checking out the backroom guys. Yeah, they're going to on

and tomorrow. Talked to Albert Breer the Monday Morning Quarterback.
You'll join us coming up in a little bit. You
(04:53):
have hockey tonight Panthers and the Hurricanes Game one, and
you have the NBA tonight Timberwolves and the Thunder Game one.
As the Thunder are a big favorite tonight, I think
last time I looked, they're a seven and a half
point favorite. The Knicks in their Game one against the Pacers.
Right now, the Knicks are a four and a half
point favorite at home. So the NFL Owners meetings, the
(05:16):
Packers adjust the tush push proposal. We'll talk about this
coming up, because I was told yesterday they must simplify
the language. This a source told me. If they're going
to eliminate the tush push, simplifying the language so the
owners understand exactly what you can and can't do. And
(05:38):
it looks like that's what they're trying to do. They've actually,
I think taken out a paragraph here of the proposal
for the tush push what you can and cannot do.
Have that for you coming up in a little bit.
Fred Warner. The Niners locked up Fred Warner, who is
a Hall of Famer in waiting. You know he's one
of those Oh that's right, he's in on every play.
(06:00):
It feels like there's certain guys where you go. I
don't know if I'd spend a lot of money on
that position, middle linebacker. But Fred Warner, he's great. And
you know they had Patrick Willis. Luke Keikley is another
guy who got made famous by playing that position because
it felt like he was in on every tackle. And
Fred Warner is a wonderful player. And I don't know
(06:23):
how the Niners are affording all these players. It just
it feels like, I mean, Brandon Ayuk they overpaid for greatly.
They got him, and then Kittle got re up, brock
Perty just got paid. Trent Williams, you got Fred Warner here,
McCaffrey gets good coin man. You keep saying, you know
they have a fantasy football team. It feels like it's
(06:44):
like we're gonna take that guy and that guy and
that guy and that guy. How do we afford him?
I don't know, But Fred Warner got paid and the
Eagles extend head coach Nick Sirianni. Well, it was what
we're talking about. Maybe last February, we're talking about can
Nick Sirianni survive? And now all of a sudden he's
(07:07):
getting extended. Now, this won't be the last time I
think we asked the question is he going to get fired?
Because it feels like, hey, they won Uh, he got
rid of coordinators to save his job, and then all
of a sudden, you get Saquon Barkley. If I'm Nick Sirianni,
I say a thank I send a thank you to
the Giants front office. I just say, hey, thanks for
(07:28):
being stupid and allowing us to get Saquon Barkley. Thanks
for the new contract. By the way, I'm going to
be around to haunt you for a while. See what's
the poll question today? Well we got a couple of
them here. We got one here from Paulie. Would you
rather be, hand down, the best middle linebacker in the
NFL or the tenth best quarterback that old Paul Okay?
(07:51):
Would I rather be?
Speaker 6 (07:53):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Is the general consensus? Fred Warner is the best middle
linebacker in football? I think so okay? So would I
rather be Fred Warner or Dak Prescott?
Speaker 4 (08:04):
You think he's right around the ten spot in the rankings.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
I think that's generous. Yeah, it is probably more like
Geno Smith.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I could go by NFL dot Com.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Okay, are we including the money that you make?
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Oh, but if.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
You're the tenth best quarterback, you're not a superstar.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
You're paid well, Okay, would I rather be Fred Warner
or Geno Smith? Because Gino makes more money? Fred is
going to go to the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
It's probably some combination of like Jared Goff, Geno Smith,
brock Purdy. That's probably like nine, ten, eleven ish.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
It's hard to pass up on getting fifty million dollars,
so you have to factor that in if that matters too.
You're making fifty as opposed to twenty five. Correct, But
Fred Warner is one of the greats and will be
a Hall of Famer when it's all said and done.
I don't think the quarterbacks we've mentioned are going to
go into the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Like Jordan Love on NFL dot Com two months ago,
is ranked as the tenth best quarterback in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
He's good.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Let me see my voice quote.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
He's good.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Yeah, Okay, he doesn't seem to be on the Hall
of Fame path yet, but.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
I need somebody who's played a longer.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Justin Herbert was ranked eleventh.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Yeah, but you got to get somebody who because Fred
Warner's this is his last contract, he'll probably play two
to three more years. And that's hit Gino Smith, who's
going to play two to three more years and then
he's done. Rock Perty is going to play a long time.
Jordan Love's gonna play a long time. So I'd have
to have something that, you know, the careers equal out
(09:39):
a little bit with how long they've played how much
more they're gonna play. But Fred Warner, he's a great player.
He just gets lost on that team because that team
is so you know, star loaded, front loaded with stars. Yeah, Marvin,
he'd be.
Speaker 8 (09:53):
More famous if he was an edge rusher. I think
the game has changed so much where guys like Michaeh
Parsons shirt and have dual carter they would have been
middle linebackers twenty five years ago.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Well, Michael Parsons kind of plays both. I mean that
that's the value that you have with him that you know,
looking back in college, they weren't quite sure, you know,
what position he would play. And I still go back
to that draft when my source said he's the best
player in the draft. It's just he brings baggage with him.
And this was, you know, a scout who said that,
(10:25):
and Michael Parsons, I don't know exactly if you say,
you know what his baggage is. I don't even know
what it was going into the draft. But he's proven
to be a you know, a Hall of famer. It
feels like in waiting there, but he does both. He's
a hybrid, and that's what Lawrence Taylor was. Lawrence Taylor
was a linebacker, but then all of a sudden, it's like, hey,
(10:47):
get up on the edge and you knew he was
coming and there was nothing you could do about it.
Michael Parsons is certainly like that. Yes, don I know how.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Revered the quarterback position is in the NFL and all
of sports. But when you want to be all things considered,
considered the best at what you do, even if it's
the second or a third or fourth best position, or
or however you want to rank the most important position
they're going to given sport that you're the best at that.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Okay, I'm gonna ask you, though, do you want to
be Geno Smith or Fred Warner?
Speaker 5 (11:17):
I think I want to be Fred Warner. Okay, And
he's definitely a glitz to walking around saying you're a quarterback,
even a top ten quarterback, but you're tenth, fifteenth or whatever.
But the best at your position is it's kind of
a big deal you get, you know, with the Mike
Singletaries of the world and the Erlackers or whatever.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
I want to be part of that group. Okay, But
Geno Smith is making what forty five million dollars a year? Yeah,
Seaton up.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
To this point, they've made about the exact same amount
of money.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
I you know, the thing for Fred Warner to me is,
I mean, that's that's a healthy living anyway for a
normal persons. Sure, but he's on a competitive team, and man,
I'll take that that there's this there's a huge amount
of value in that then just you know, like monetary.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yeah, okay, but that would probably be you know, the
comparison I would use because Fred's in is what early thirties.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
Maybe he's turning twenty nine this season, okay. Man four
out of the last five years first Team All Pro
middle linebacker you're going to the Hall of Fame if
you do that.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Yes, yes, he's a great player. There's certain players where
you go, Damn, he's in on like Polamalu did that,
Like you just say he's in on it, Junior sayout
every play. It felt like Luke Keikley every play. You know.
Rokwan Smith is another one, that great middle linebacker as well.
(12:40):
That used to be you know, the position certainly when
he talked about defense, but you had your your front
line that geared everything to you. And that's why Singletary
and Budkus and Nichke and Jack Lambert they were ray Lewis.
They're in on all the tackles because the line allows
that to happen. I mean, you still have to make
the tackles. But that's where we focused in on Mike
(13:02):
Singletary's beady eyes there he was waiting.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yes see, Yes, it feels like the position too that
you become a head coach after like the middle linebacker
and then you transition right into head coaching after that.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Kind of see the field. He's like, hey, you know,
I don't know, Singletary wasn't a very good coach. Is
pretty good, but yeah, Yeah, well Rabel didn't get dinged up.
I'm sure like Mike Singletary, did you know ray Lewis
did those guy don't know? You want those guys to
be your your head coach. Okay, yes, Marman.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
And Fred Warner has got to play that. He's mastered
the punch, like when he hits you and he punches
to get the ball out with the fumble. Unbelievable. Best
linebacker on football, but not as famous as you know
we think he should be.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, because bo Say is more famous than Fred Warner
on that defense. Okay, correct, because he's in edge rusher.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Play the day coming up phone calls as well, Settle
on a poll question eight seven to seven to three
DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot com. NFL owners' meetings
going on today and tomorrow. If you go back to
two thousand and five, we had, you know, language that
outlawed the tush push forever. And why they brought it
(15:52):
back I have no idea, and they said it was
hard to adjudicate. I was like, okay, how about we
just come up with language. Can you come up with language?
You know the problem is with the NFL, they add
more language, they don't take it away. And then all
of a sudden you started to hear that, oh this
(16:12):
is unfair, this isn't a football play. And then I go, okay, well,
which team is going to have a proposal to get
rid of the toush push? And we found out it
was the Green Bay Packers. And we had Matt Lafleur,
the Packers head coach. He joined us at the draft
and we went back and forth on this, and I
think we found out that maybe the Packers were told
(16:37):
to have a proposal to get rid of the tush push,
the brotherly shove, that the Packers came out the guys
are at kins. Would you have liked that to have
remained anonymous that there's a team, that it is what
it is.
Speaker 11 (16:52):
We might have had some nudging towards that, but I'm
not really going to get into that.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Did the commissioner say we need somebody to speak? I
wouldn't say that because I don't think the commissioner wants this.
Non I can I say what I think happened. Sure, Okay,
I think the commissioner nudged you guys to say, look,
if you have a grievance, put your name to it.
I'll owe you one. And because I don't think he
wants that play to stay in.
Speaker 11 (17:18):
The game, Well, it's not a great football play. And
then certainly when you look at what happened in the
Washington Commander game where Frankie lou Whu's launching over the top,
which I mean it's a tough play to stop. We've
actually had more success, and we had some studies ran
we've had more success with a traditional quarterback sneak than
(17:39):
we have with you know, whatever you want to call it,
brotherly show.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I think Philadelphia is still going to be dominating with
the quarterback sneak. I agree because of that line in
that quarterback.
Speaker 11 (17:49):
I mean, they do a great job, and I mean
Jalen Hurts can squat the house.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
They do a good job of just you know.
Speaker 11 (17:58):
Winning the line of scrimmage. It all starts right there
and they get really low and they've they've perfected it.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Keep in mind that they were going to vote on
this the last time they all got together, and what happened.
They tabled it. Well, they tabled it because the commissioner,
in my opinion, didn't have the votes to get rid
of the tush push that's it. And then to say
to the packers, hey, I mean Matt Lafleur's basically saying that.
(18:27):
They said, hey, we're going to nudge you a little bit,
put your name to it, and then you know, maybe
down the road you do a solid for the packers
in some way, shape or form. I don't know if
it's quid pro quo, but hey, you guys are going
to take a little heat because then what happened. All
packers can't stop it, so they want to get rid
of it. It feels like the packers did the NFL
(18:50):
a solid and then put their name to it. I
don't know what they get back, but they got the draft.
Maybe you get another draft in there some down the road.
And from what I was told yesterday that I passed
on to you is you got to simplify the language.
That was almost the homework assignment by the NFL. Now
(19:12):
this is my opinion only from information I have. You
know that I was told, and nobody has backed this up.
But I'm telling you what I was told. Simplify the language,
and then there's a real chance. I don't think that
the NFL doesn't want this play. I don't think the
commissioner wants this play because esthetically it's not a great
(19:33):
looking play and it's very, very predictable. And I stand
by what I said. That offensive line, with that quarterback,
they're still going to be unstoppable when it comes to
quarterback snakes. They are because he can squat six hundred pounds. Okay,
(19:55):
that's unheard of, and he's six feet tall. By the
time he's squats down, he goes forward quarterback sneak with
a little momentum, he's down to about five to five,
and then you're just not going to get low and
stop them. They will still be extremely successful. Here is
the amended rule. It's Rule twelve, Section one, Article four.
(20:17):
By the way, so assisting the runner in interlocking interference,
no offensive player may push or pull a runner in
any direction at any time, or lift him to his feet. Now,
they did take out a paragraph here, it's you know,
the paragraph that said use interlocking interference by grasping a
(20:40):
teammate or by using his hands or arms to encircle
the body of a teammate in an effort to block
an opponent. Or then they kept this in push or
throw his body against a teammate to aid him in
an attempt to obstruct an opponent, or recover a loose ball,
or assist the runner, except by individually blocking opponents for him.
(21:03):
The penalty for doing this is a loss of ten yards.
They're trying to do player safety. The problem is they
don't have the data. If they had the data, then
this would be gone. The problem is that they don't.
So they're worried about player safety, but also pace of
(21:27):
play and the aesthetic. Now, you don't want this to
look like you're singling out the Eagles. That was another
thing I was told. You want to do it in
a way that feels like it's the league as a whole,
not the Eagles. Well we all know it's the Eagles.
I mean even the Buffalo Bills with his second best
at doing this and what happened in the most important
(21:48):
quarterback sneak of their season, Josh Allen got stopped. But
that goes back to what I'm saying. Josh Allen is,
you know, six' five two. Forty But Jalen herds with
trying to get this play and be, successful is built
for this. Play Josh allen isn't because he's almost too
(22:08):
big of a. Target Jalen hurts will still be, successful
and so with The eagles with this. Play but that's
going to be a big topic And Albert brier will
join us from the owner's. Meetings but why they allowed
this to come? BACK i still think there's a, simplic simplification.
Here you're not allowed to be behind the runner and
(22:29):
assist the, runner. Period that's. It if you put yourself
in that, position we're going to flag you on. It
you just know that it's a no, no that's. It
or if you want to say anything that is inside
the tackles the tackle, box you cannot assist a runner
(22:49):
if you want to do it that. Way BUT i
would still just say you cannot assist a. Runner you can't,
push you can't, pull you can't. Assist that's it. Done
and then you let teams. Know you, know you can't
crack back block anymore on a punt or a kickoff.
Return they know, it so you don't do. It you
(23:12):
can't put your, hands you can't have a three hundred
pound lineman Behind Jalen. Hurts you can't Have Dallas goddard
there pushing him from. Behind you can't do. It that's
all you need to. Say can't line up that. Way
it's a quarterback. Sneak you. Know the interesting part Is
Tom brady was as good at the quarterback sneak as
(23:32):
any quarterback in. History And tom's not an imposing, guy
not a big, guy not necessarily a great offensive, line
but he was so strategic and where he went either
left or, right off the center or straight. Ahead but
this is. Different you, know the, optics the aesthetics of
it don't look good because it looks like a. Scrum
(23:54):
it looks like. RUGBY i don't have any problem with.
It they figured out some. Thing they mastered it everybody
else has the same opportunity to do, it and you know,
what nobody else has come. Close now it feels like
THE nfl is saying we're going to do this and
penalize The Philadelphia. Eagles BUT i think they're going to
(24:16):
get rid of it because that's why they tabled it
in the first. Place chris And. Syracuse, Hi, chris what's
on your mind? Today?
Speaker 6 (24:23):
Hey thank?
Speaker 10 (24:23):
You?
Speaker 12 (24:24):
Dan, HEY i wanted to get in AND i just
wanted to make sure to wish you guys good luck.
Tonight AND i think you're going to get off the
snide lucky number, seleven make that, seven so good.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Luck.
Speaker 12 (24:34):
Hey as long as you're talking about the tush push
a couple, COMMENTS i totally agree with. You you, know
the commissioner has come out and he says there's no,
data but their doctors feel that there's a high probability
of catastrophic injury on the. Play now you could say
that on any play in THE. Nfl AND i think you're.
Right he wants it. Out he thinks it's a boring
play and he'd much rather had teams on third and
(24:55):
one and fourth and one go play action or. Something and,
again to your, Point philly's not going to miss a.
BEAT i read something where three or four years ago
they did a survey back or a study back to
nineteen eighty five where third and one in fourth and,
ONE qb sneaks are successful eighty eight percent of the.
Time and as you said With Jalen, hurts that they're
(25:15):
going to they won't miss a. Beat And, dan it's
funny WHENEVER i hear the term push, PUSH i don't know.
WHY i always think of The Ice bowl When Bart's
starr on fourth and goal at the one won the
championship by A qb. Sneak AND i Saw Jim taylor
once had a. Documentary he was narrating it and he
pointed out that the first three times he got the
(25:36):
ball on the one and because of the, ice he
could not get, in he couldn't get. Footing So Bart
star figured out was falling and get it and he
won the. Championship And Jim taylor Said Vince lombardi And
Bart starr were the only two that knew it was
going to be quarterback. Sneak everybody Thought taylor was going
to get the ball, again including, him and he said
he was going full, board his momentum took him right
(25:58):
into Bart starr's butt and he couldn't sup because of the.
Ice and he said that iconic photo Of taylor with
his hands up in the. Air everybody thought he was signaling,
touchdown we won the, championship but he was saying he
wanted the official to know because he knew would be a.
PENALTY i am not pushing them. In there is no
push push.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Here thank, You, Chris andrew And. Washington Hi, Andrew.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
Good, Morning Dan, donnett thanks for taking my. Call good
luck tonight as. WELL i do think this is lucky
number seven for, you so you guys will be walking
away with the trophy too. Common you know yesterday you
Said jannis to The Cleveland. CALVES i agree with. THAT
i just think that he might be better with A
Darius garland complimentary guards or Like Drew holiday instead of
(26:43):
A Donovan Mitchell Dame lillard type of guard where they're
more all. DOMINANT i think that would be a very
successful team that could get rid Of Jared, allen, Keep Evan,
Mobley Darius garland And Jannis. Antetokumpo also, yesterday thanks for
Having Tony reality. On god that guy is so great
AND i can't believe that that show is getting. Canceled
i've grown up with.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
IT i love.
Speaker 13 (27:03):
It BUT i do think he should be in the
leader spot for continuing your show if it does continue
after you in the Man. CAVE i think he would
be the best at being able to Manage dan yet
get all of the subjects in. There he has a wide.
Variety he has very many connections to get guests in
there and have different people come on the. Show just
wanted to put that.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
Forward all, right, well.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Thank, You. Andrew i'd be honored if he wanted to do.
THIS i think he aspires to do other. Things but
maybe we Have tony reality guest host one. TIME i
think he'd he'd be great age seven to seven to
THREE dp. Show by the, WAY i think we're oh for.
Five this would be for six if we. Lost is?
(27:44):
That DO i have my math correct on this?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
BALL i think you're. Right we went oh for five
in a row and then took a couple of years
off to, regroup and now we're.
Speaker 14 (27:52):
Back, okay this would be our sixth. Nomination, okay all,

Speaker 5 (30:35):
Kenny burrow And Curly coulp And, pastorini all those guys so.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Much Dante, Pastorini, Dante, Yeah, Dan, Pastorini Dante. Pastorini let
me See walk In. Chicago Hey, walk what's on your mind? Today?
Speaker 6 (30:52):
Hey loo's?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Up.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
Dan i'm just, wondering if THE nfl were to adopt
your idea on the whole tush push, thing would you
make the play? Reviewable?
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Sure ALL i care about is you, know we talk
about reviewable. Now it used to be instant, replay and
then it you, know it became anything but. Instant now it's.
Replay now it's. Reviewable like we keep changing the. LANGUAGE
i want the game to move at a steady. PACE
(31:23):
i watch, it you KNOW nba sometimes those final five
minutes it's just. Interminable it's, just oh my, gosh let's
speed this. Up but with THE, nfl if you if
you have the, technology don't have the, technology if you're
not using the, technology and the time in between, plays
can you have you, know five sets of eyes at
(31:45):
THE Nfl home office that, says, oh you know, what
not a, penalty oh? Penalty like why does it take
so long to come up with whatever your opinion is on?
This but, yeah if you want to review, it but
do it in a timely man it should be you,
know they should have a clock on. That this is
(32:05):
the amount of time the officials in THE nfl get
to use to review something because after a, while it's,
like you, know you want to see, another you, know
another and, another and now you're slowing down the pace of.
Play it's still this is. Entertainment you want to make
sure if you're taking away something that's esthetically, boring like
(32:26):
the tush, push THEN i think you got to apply
that same kind of logic that every other, play like
let's speed this, up let's get this, moving let's make
the call. Here you want to review, it do, it
maybe not in an, instant but do it in a timely. Fashion, Yes.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
PAULINE i saw an article From Sports Business journal a
few years ago about this. Topic why is there not
a clock on? Replay and they didn't want to be
hamstrung and if they got into a situation where a
playoff game where they weren't, sure and they had to
take multiple looks at, it and they didn't want to
be limited with a. Clock that was a long time.
Ago but now it's the only THING i saw.

feels like there's another wave of replays. There but, yeah
in a timely. Fashion, yes if it means you can
get the play, right then get the play, right or
don't use, it like make up your. Mind you can't
sort of, go, hey you, know we got all these angles.
(33:25):
Here remember for, YEARS i kept, saying they got to use,
pylon they got to put a camera in the, pylon
like it just made. Sense, therefore you had that camera
right at the goal line and you'd get unbelievable. Angles
and it took years for them to finally and maybe
they couldn't, find you, know a camera that was going
to fit in and durable and all those. Things now
we just take it for. GRANTED i, mean we take
(33:47):
it for granted that it's going to take a while
to render an opinion on a. Play you, know it's
just like get the batter in the batter's, Box like
we allowed it for such a long period of. Time

(35:39):
rick what's on your mind? Today Hey?
Speaker 6 (35:42):
DAD i think we're hyper focused on the touch.
Speaker 7 (35:46):
Push my lines literally Picked montgomery up and carry them eight.
YARDS i always See Penna sill shoving him over the goal,
line SO i don't know if we're going to have
to keep him in the. Tackles this new rule that
we're thinking, About but it happens more than just a twitch,
push don't you?
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Think, yes it. Does all you have to do is
say you cannot assist a runner from. Behind that's. It
once you start flagging teams taking away, touchdowns don't you,
know the message will be? Sent?
Speaker 7 (36:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Pull could you cut it down to you can't assist
the runner because you're not allowed to pull. Either that's
still in, place by the, way you know pulling?
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Rule, yeah, yeah you can't assist the. Runner that's a short. Rule. Yeah, Yeah, see.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
Then wouldn't that also include if you said you can't
assist the, runner wouldn't that also include blocking in front of?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Them, no but you're not touching the runner right to.
See this is.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Why so my point is you have to deliberately make
these rules more, wordy because then it's nothing but endless
loopholes that then is going to be debated.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Constantly you're not allowed to have you can't assist the
runner with. Contact you can't touch, him you can't grab,
him you can't pull, him you can't, push you can't lift.
Him that's it, Nothing and you know where it'll get
around after a. While it will then they'll be, like,
hey all, right we're just. BLOWING i, mean they played
(37:10):
the game for decades and nobody was doing. This you
could still do. This you just say you're not allowed
to push or pull or lifts.
Speaker 5 (37:19):
It.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Uh kevin In, California, Hi, kevin what's on your mind? Today?

Speaker 6 (37:28):
Better but on the touch, push what did you gave
half the? Touchdown whoever pushed them?
Speaker 7 (37:32):
In that would kind of eliminate.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
The then you'd have runners saying, no, no, no no,
no don't touch, me don't don't touch. Me we missed

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
