Speaker 3 (00:34):

Speaker 2 (00:43):
All Right, the NBA Free Agency month got underwigh this weekend,
and the biggest ish news is Lebron is going to
stay in Los Angeles. I don't know if anybody's surprised.
I think the surprising part was his agent, his representative,
Rich Paul, kind of making it, well, not kind of
making it public.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Of Hey, Lebron wants to win. Now.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
We know you're thinking about the future. The future is
now for Lebron James. I'm sure the front office really
appreciated Rich Paul going public with that and saying what
didn't need to be said. I think the front office
is well aware that this might be lebron last year,
but he's going to opt in. He has no trade clause,
(01:28):
and I didn't know if it was going to be
a two year deal or a one plus, but by
all accounts, it's a one year deal. And Rich Paul
pointing out to the Lakers that Lebron still wants to win.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
All right, poll question, Seaton, what do we have? Well,
we got two of them right now.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
We have up there in which league is it toughest
to go from worst to first? And I only put
up three right now. I put up NBA, MLB and
the NFL toughest to go worse the first.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Right now?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Major League Baseball is winning that one, okay, and I
think that's going to change.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
We also have to put up there, and this is
a little bit of a topic, but is there a
term for a player who is neither a bust nor
a star that goes first overall? So DeAndre Ayton, Yes,
this is called the DeAndre Ayton Poll okay.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Because I think he's going to be a free agent.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
He was number one pick, but he was also number
one pick in the draft that gave us Luca and
Trey Young as well.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
But DeAndre Ayton.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
He went to the University of Arizona, and the owner
at the time, I think Robert Sarver, thought let's keep
the local talent in Arizona, not thinking that maybe we
get a generational talent or a worldwide talent. But not
everybody knew about Luca, and I mean, let's be fair
(02:58):
about this that I did watch. I watched highlights of
him in Europe, and I just thought that he was
barely getting by people, barely getting his shot off.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
And then I realized that's what he does in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
He barely gets by you, barely gets his shot off,
but he does it every single time. Trey Young I
thought was going to be a thing. I thought that
he would be a guy who could be a specialist.
Turned out that he's a really good passer as well.
But DeAndre Ayton, I don't think he's bad enough to
(03:32):
be a bust. But I don't think he's good enough
to be one of those guys that you look and
say he was worthy of the number one pick.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Yes, Pauline.
Speaker 6 (03:42):
He's been in the league DeAndre Ayton for seven years.
He averages about fourteen and ten.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
He's had.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
The best season was his second year, he averaged eighteen
to eleven. He has never made an All Star team
in seven years.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I don't think he's going to make it all now.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
So we know what we know about his career.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Yes, we need a term disappointing that almost seems harsh, unfulfilled.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Yeah, you could do that, like we're looking for one word.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Yeah, not a bust nor a star.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Seen, when you look at number one overall picks for
years and years and years surrounding that one, he's doing
pretty well compared to everybody else. He's significantly more successful
than a lot of dudes that went number one overall.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
It's a lot of times it's just like Peyton Manning
and Ryan Leaf.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
You know that Ryan Leaf was viewed to bust.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
He was never gonna, you know, and it made it
worse because Peyton was one of the greats of all time.
So sometimes Sam Bouie not his fault, but he was
injury prone, and you know, they ended up taking Sam
Bouie in Portland. Michael Jordan was in the draft. So
I think that has to do with how we look
at you. Of we could have had him, and Ayton
(05:06):
is serviceable, I could see him playing for the Lakers,
but I don't know if serviceable is.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
I don't know. Hey, how would you describe his talents serviceable? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (05:19):
Point also in that draft with DeAndre Ayton, Luca Trey Young,
as you said, SGA and Jalen Brunson were in that draft.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Okay, Yeah, that doesn't help in how we look at you.
But if you said, hey, this guy's going to average
sixteen and ten for his career and he's the number
one overall pick, I'm good. If he was like the
eighth pick in the draft, you'd go, hey, wow, all right,
sixteen ten, that's good.
Speaker 7 (05:46):
Yes, Mark, See, he needed to be in the Anthony
Bennett draft. There was nobody in that drift. Good career
by him.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Yeah, Cabs would have had a good guy, good player,
sixteen and ten, serviceable, Yes, you'll take it.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I would.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I don't know what the ceiling was when you say unfulfilled.
Unfulfilled because he's the number one pick, or was he
a guy that people thought, man, this guy is going
to be I thought Jaron Jackson Junior the third was
going to be great, and and he's he's really good.
But I thought he was going to be great. That
he could play defense, offense, he could shoot, he had range, blockshot,
(06:31):
you know, all those things. But he was in that
draft too, wasn't he Marvin Jaren Jackson Junior the third?
Did he go like third was going?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah? So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
If we look at the ceiling and then go and
like how high is the ceiling for DeAndre Aiden? And
if he's that good, why is he on the move again? Yes, Marvin,
because he's just serviceable. Okay, He's not a franchise changer.
And I think that's the issue. They were thinking about
the old school days of the nineties. We need to
dominate big man, And you had Trey Young and Luca
(07:05):
right there. But to your defense, nobody knew.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Luca, no, buddy, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (07:12):
We need a comp in another sport, a player who
has taken number one overall, probably a quarterback who didn't
have a bad career, just never really paid off. Sam Bradford.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Serviceable.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
I don't think he made a Pro Bowl.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
He made a lot of money.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
Yes, he did, so did DeAndre Aid. Yeah, that's Sam
Bradford might be it because Jamis Winston's been a bit
of a disappointment, but he had some decent years. I'd
say more of a disappointment for Jamis as the number
one pick.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
But wasn't he the first member of the thirty thirty club.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Which you don't want to be.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Oh, you don't want to be in that thirty thirty.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
Yes, yes he.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Baseball doesn't really have this conversation because you don't know
anybody until it's like, all right, let's see if that
four hundred and fifty million dollars.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
Is worth it.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
That's going to be tricky, but there aren't really busts
or anything.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
I mean when you think back and you go number
one pick in the draft, it's because the number one
pick normally doesn't go right into Major League Baseball.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
We get ten of these dudes in the NFL and
the NBA, we get a million of these dudes a year.
Then you don't even have to be the number one
overall pick.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
But we focus I think we focus on the number
one pick in hockey probably more than we do in
baseball because it feels like those players are generational talent
and chances are they're going to be playing in the
NHL right away.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
Yes, boy, one that stands out. Two thousand and nine,
we covered him a lot. Steven Strasburg out of San
Diego State. He was supposed to be in this last
twenty years. He was the most before schemes, the most
publicized pitcher going into the league. He had a good
career one thirteen and sixty two. He made three All
Star teams, never won a cy Young.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Oh he did win over one hundred games.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Yeah, I got him well.
Speaker 6 (09:06):
He pitched thirteen years, one hundred and thirteen wins. He
had a couple of good seasons with over fifteen wins
one thirteen and sixty two, three All Star peers.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I remember, and I likened Steven Strasburg to Jadavian Clowney
with the hype because I remember John Smoltz was talking
his first game he did in the minor leagues, Steven Strasburg.
I remember Smoltz was talking about they had these glowing
reviews like he was the perfect pitcher.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
He was the perfect pitcher. Jadavian Clowney.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Oh my gosh, we've never seen this before when the
mother Ship went out to his pro day. And there's
no perfect player. There are times when we look at
somebody and you can't miss, well, you can miss. We've
seen that happen. And Steven Strasberg was just like Mark Pryor.
Mark Pryor was the perfect pitcher. Now the Dodgers pitching coach.
(09:58):
You had expert who were looking at him in his form,
everything about him, it was great, he's going to be dominating. Well,
he wasn't overused with the Cubs with Carrie Wood and
never really reached that potential that people had for him.
But when it comes to number one pick on the
draft in baseball, I don't think that we even remember,
(10:21):
like that guy was a ninth round draft and you
know Albert Poohols, what was he thirteenth round draft pickers
and you know, we just don't think about it that way.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Or it feels like.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
You're giving away the future of your team because maybe
you missed on the number one pick in the draft.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
In football or in basketball. That certainly is the feeling. Yes, Marvin, I.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Don't know much about hockey, but I do remember this
name when I was young, about him being.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
The next guy.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Eric Lindros.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
Yeah, I think he was the number one pick overall
and they talked about him like crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Well he had concussions and yeah, he wasn't able to
live up to the hype he was supposed to be,
like that's the new hockey player. He's big and he's fast, powerful,
not quite Lmu, but that feeling of you know, wow,
he's different. Let's see John in Pennsylvania. Hi John, Best
(11:17):
and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 8 (11:19):
Hi Dan, It's sixty one two twenty today. I'll start
with my best of the weekend. And I don't know
if you've seen this, but omegaball I caught Omega ball.
It's fascinating. It's soccer played in a circle and it's
three teams every thirty three degrees on this circle, there's
a goal and you got fifteen guys going out there
(11:41):
for the ball. Not a big soccer fan, but this
was really cool. If you get a chance to catch
some Omega ball on the mother Ship, it's it's it's neat,
it's exciting. It's a smaller circle than a regular soccer pitch.
But I don't know if you've seen it, maybe Polly has,
but very very very cool. All right, my worst of
(12:02):
the weekend.
Speaker 9 (12:03):
As I was wrapping up the weekend last night, I
caught some of the Air Guitar Championship air jam off,
and these guys are dressed up in costume, some like
the Ultimate Warrior. There was a Freddie Mercury in red.
There was something and they're air guitaring and it's a
terrain wreck. It's I couldn't take my eyes off of it,
(12:25):
of course, but.
Speaker 8 (12:27):
I just I got the.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
Chills, you know, those embarrassment chills that you get when
somebody does something they're so stupid.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
All right, well, thank you, John. I would say you
probably need to get a life.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
John, just say.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Maybe you need to maybe a stream made me stream something. Yeah,
a lot of things to stream, thank you.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Jo.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
I didn't see those events, but I did watch some
of the National Darts Championship this weekend, and the coverage.
Whatever you think of darts, the coverage is fantastic. They
know how to produce that show. It's the place is
going crazy.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Backroom guys went, Yeah, Dylan Ray Bad Larry I think
came up.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
They went it was Madison Square Garden. They went to
the Dart Championship.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Let's see Steven la Hi, Steve, what's on your mind?
Speaker 10 (13:16):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Now?
Speaker 10 (13:17):
Dpy Hey, Uh, I just want to give you a complimentary,
complimentary comp You guys are the Howard Stern of sports
talk radio. So that's one thing that's a great comp
By the way, Uh another nickname, I got a nickname
for you, Black Jesus Michael. And I also wanted to
(13:40):
ask you Friday, you guys were you were talking about
kind of being broke, not poor, but broke for not
having enough money when you were young. What was the
nicest thing for the first nice thing you bought when
you started making money?
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Thank you, Steve. Yeah, we weren't poor growing up. We
just didn't There was certain things we didn't have.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
We were limited. How's that six kids and we had
one and a half bathrooms and having two sisters, and
you just did you just dealt with it.
Speaker 11 (14:18):
But I.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Feel bad if I embarrassed my brothers and sisters by
comments that I was making. We just we didn't have things,
that's all. But you know, we made us better workers.
That's why we're all pretty successful in what we do,
you know, our different walks of life. But no, we
we just didn't have that stocked refrigerator, and you know,
(14:42):
you go to your friend's house and all of a
sudden there's like twinkies there and ding dongs and you
get chocolate milk and wonderbread. Like there's things that stand
out when you go to somebody else's house and that
you know that happened. But I just remember one Christmas
(15:04):
went down the street and this family you couldn't walk,
you couldn't walk on the floor because the entire floor
was full of gifts and we got three gifts at Christmas.
And even then, it didn't you weren't necessarily getting what
you wanted. And uh it always socks always, you know,
(15:29):
your stocking stuffer was full of socks and underwear and
you're like okay, or gloves and you're like all right,
you know, but hey, no boohoo made us stronger. At
the time, I was pissed, but uh, you know I learned.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
I learned to deal with it.
Speaker 7 (15:49):
Yes, marm It's like, did you go to your friend's
house to see name brand cereal?
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Yes, Like whoa yeah, fruit loops. We've been eating fruitios.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Uh yeah, you know that when there's soda in the refrigerator.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
And you're like, wait, can you just take that?
Speaker 11 (16:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Do you want to take a coke? If you want one?
Speaker 10 (16:12):
Damn?
Speaker 11 (16:13):
What is this.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Way this exists?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
And then you go home and then you say to
your mom, oh, I was over at Scott mckevitch's place
and his refrigerator is packed. Well, why don't you spend
more time over at Scott mkevitch's place.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
And I'd be like, okay, yes, you.
Speaker 12 (16:33):
Are more reasonably asking for something like a can of soda.
We would see like the new Atari video cartridge at
someone's house was something that was far more expensive, and
we'd throw a temper tantament so we got that.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Oh no, we I remember the greatest Christmas I ever had.
I was playing with a gift and then my mom
came down and she said, oh, that's your brother, Bill's.
So I had to give up the best gift I
ever had, and it was my brother.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
It wasn't for you, it wasn't for me.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
No.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I'm like, God, this is great, and I think my
mom mislabeled, and all of a sudden I'm like, dang,
this is awesome, And all of a sudden she goes, oh, Danny,
that's for Bill.
Speaker 8 (17:14):
What what?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Once again it made me stronger, made me stronger. I'm stronger,
all right. When we come back, we'll talk some gambling
and the FBI or there's a there's an investigation of
federal investigation into a member of the NBA's Detroit Pistons.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Well, take a break, I'm back after this.

We will give you our best and worst of the
weekend coming up in twenty minutes. More of your phone
calls as well. Satan poll question for hour two is what.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Well, right now we got up there for hour one,
which sport is it toughest or which league is it
toughest to go worse?
Speaker 3 (18:36):
The first.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
Early results is still Major League Baseball at about fifty
three percent. NBA and NFL is split. I don't know
if that's correct. I really don't know if that's right.
We're still trying to workshop some ideas for the DeAndre
Ayton poll question. You're not a bust and you're not
a star, but you went number one overall.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Are you?
Speaker 4 (18:58):
Some people have said efforting in progress after seven years.
I don't know if anything's going to change. But if
the Lakers need a big man and brook Lopez isn't
the answer, because Laker fans are like, hey, what about
brook Lopez. He's not a rebound like, he's not an
(19:19):
inside guy, and he's old. He's a he's a good
perimeter player, but he's not your typical big man.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
So Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
David Purdham covers gambling for ESPN, and the story is
Malik Beasley of the Pistons. Uh, there's an FBI probe
with him. Well, David joins us. Now, what exactly is
Beasley accused of doing?
Speaker 11 (19:45):
So?
Speaker 14 (19:45):
Pedro authorities are investigating him all allegations of gambling on
the NBA related to games and prop bets. That's according
to his attorney. So exactly the details of which games
of what went down with him are still unknown at
the time. But he is the third NBA player in
just the last eighteen months to be reportedly under investigation
(20:07):
by the FEDS for betting allegations. And the joints Johntay
Border and Terry Roch here.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Okay, this is different than the NBA investigating. What happens
when there's a federal probe? How do they investigate as
opposed to what the NBA would do.
Speaker 14 (20:22):
Well, this all started back again with the johns Porter thing,
and they subpoenaed some of the sports books for betting
records for individuals that they suspected may have been involved.
And so my working premise is that they probably had
those subpoena records, the betting records, went through and see
what some of the unusual betting activity on some of
these other games. So they're working through everything right now,
(20:45):
communicating with the sports books, the attorneys and so forth
to see where it goes.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Okay, but give us a red flag.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Give us what happens when all of a sudden somebody goes,
wait a minute, something suspicious.
Speaker 14 (20:59):
That's a great question. And when bookmakers really are convinced
that something is untoward is going on is when they
move the odds right. So a prop bet may be
over under two and a half for rebounds or whatever,
and instead of moving you know, up to four and
a half, will adjust the big on if you want
to bet the over, it may be minus two hundred.
(21:21):
When they bet just the odds, and the betters don't
stop betting it and just keep betting it even though
these odds have moved against them, it is a major
red flag.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
In flag.
Speaker 14 (21:31):
Some bookmakers will tell me they will do it intentionally,
moving overly aggressive, move these odds so crazy that nobody
that is really trying to bet it seriously will keep betting.
And yet people do keep betting it, and then they
know something's going on.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
How dangerous are prop bets since an individual can control
a lot of what its numbers are.
Speaker 14 (21:53):
Yeah, certainly they are more easily to be manipulated than
a full game. If you just have a player that's
over under on rebounds or three pointers made or points.
That's what happened with the John say Porter situation. There
was all these bets on unders on his statistics. Then
he had took himself out of the game within minutes
and so all the unders hit. So partly excuse me.
(22:17):
Prop bets definitely are a concern. There's a debate to
be had whether we should be offering in the regulated
market prop bets on all these individual players.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Well, I know that college took away the prop bets,
or you know, Vegas took away prop bets on college athletes.
Speaker 14 (22:35):
Correct some of the states that Vegas has not about.
I think there's about eighteen states that now prohibit individual
player props on college athletes.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yeah, because you know that's tricky when you're a college
kid and you know what happens here. David I mentioned
this that these guys probably thinking nobody's going to notice this. Hey,
I'm going to do this, nobody will notice. Well, Vegas
has to notice this, like they like, it's imperative that
they notice these things. And anybody out there who thinks
(23:05):
nobody is going to notice if I do just this
or this and I play for this team nobody follows,
you know, University of Alabama, Birmingham, they do.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
They have to.
Speaker 14 (23:19):
You're right one hundred percent, and you'll hear people go, oh,
the sportsbooks are no. The sportsbooks are the ones that
lose when these bets are not on the up and up.
They're the ones that detect it. So you're absolutely right
there the things. There's what's the saying. You know, two
people can keep a secret. If it gets past there,
it's over. Greed starts to get involved. Hey, I made
(23:40):
a little money here from keeping it quiet. Let me
tell my buddy. He makes a little bit money. All
of a sudden, there's this flood of money coming in
on these random games that people are like, where is
this coming from? So it does to get detected.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
NBA hasn't responded yet to Malik Beasley.
Speaker 14 (23:56):
That's correct. They said they are cooperating with the federal investigation.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Good to talk to you again, David. It won't be
the last time I talked to you, that's for sure.
David Purdham, he covers gambling for ESPN. They notice these things.
They're just little things, but you know they need to
have all of this, like the transparency and That's why
whenever there's a gambling controversy scandal, I always look to
(24:24):
Vegas and say, you did your job, because they have
to notice these things.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Now, that doesn't mean.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
You still can't manipulate a game and get away with it,
but I think it's if you're playing a long game,
you're gonna get caught because it's their job. They're losing
money because you're trying to make money. And prop bets,
I know they're fun, but those are the ones that
(24:51):
you can manipulate. If you're over under is two and
a half rebounds, I mean, and I don't know how
much money. A lot of these books won't let you
put a lot of money on prop bets because you know,
it feels like that's more of a that's a fun bet.
But if I have over under on Shay Gilgess Alexander
(25:12):
thirty three and a half points, I don't know if
there's a limit on what I can put on that.
But if it's you know, Johnte Porter two and a
half assists in a game, Hey, how much money can
I put on that? And if you do put a
lot of money on it, doesn't that kind of jump
out at you and you go, wait a.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Minute here, yeah, pauling.
Speaker 6 (25:34):
And it's actually easier to get caught these days. Back
in Vegas there is no paper trail back in the
Vegas days, and now with all these different casino commissions,
they don't want these things to happen. And so when
there's a red flag of a betting in a game
with an LSU Alabama baseball game that story a couple
years ago, they turn in those spikes of bets. They
turn them in because they don't want this to happen.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
And you know, whether it's DraftKings or fan duel, those
are the two big ones. You know, those are all
monitored because they want it to be legitimate.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
They I mean, the last thing you want.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
If you're the commissioner of any of these leagues, you
cannot have a gambling scandal. Certainly not the NFL, and
they had one back in the sixties with Paul Horning
and Alex Carris and those guys got suspended for a year.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
But they monitor. I don't care where you are, they're
going to monitor.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's why you'll find a lot of guys who don't
want to bet through these regular sites. Well, or they'll
have somebody that they know who will bet through these sites,
or you do something where you have an illegal bookmaker
because they don't want to be declaring, you know, the
profits here.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
So there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I mean, this is it's only going to get worse
from the standpoint of these kind of moments. Here there's
billions and billions and billions of dollars at stake. That's
why all of these leagues, every one of these commissioners
probably said publicly, will never allow gambling. Roger Goodell, I
think in twenty twelve, oh, will never, will never do that.
(27:11):
I went okay, and then all of a sudden they realized,
what is my piece of the pie? Holy bleep, gambling
for everybody?
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Yay. I mean, I would.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Love to find out exactly what changed in twenty twelve
to now for the commissioner of the NFL, just philosophically,
what happened?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
What changed here?
Speaker 4 (27:38):
As we have always said it was, we're not going
to allow gambling until we found a responsible way for
all parties involved. And that's what we find today.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And we found out how much money we're going to make,
billions and billions of dollars. Oh, the righteous, the righteous commissioners.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
Yes, Paul, you remember about six years ago, a defensive
back for the Arizona Cardinals got caught. He walked up
at the Caesar sports book in Vegas and made a bet.
They identified who he was, and the sportsbook turned him
into the Devanda gaming board and then to the NFL.
Went right to the NFL. He got caught within days.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
You're not invisible, you think you are. Nobody will notice this.
Hey I can do this. That'd be fun. Hey, I
want to bet too. No, you play in the NFL.
You're a wide receiver. Oh, but I would like to
come on. I want to have some fun. Hey, I'll
place a bet for you.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
Whenever pro athletes get caught for a little betting scandal,
there's always some people on social media say, oh, it's
so hypocritical. All of us can bet, and the leagues
are taking money. Why can't the players bet. I go
on flights and I'll have a beer when I'm in
you know, coach, because I'm having a beer. I don't
want the pilots to have a beer, you know what
I mean. We're in the same plane, but they're not
allowed to have a beer.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I am Yeah, amazing and I know, look, I speak
from experience, but I have a type a personality, and
I realize that you can get in and get underwater quickly.
And it feels like now society has made it feel
(29:18):
in my opinion of what's wrong with you. You're not gambling, well,
you did in place a bad and it's way too easy.
If it's fun, if it's if it's monitored, if you
do a good job and understanding exactly, you're never going
to win. Okay, you might win temporarily, you don't win
(29:42):
usually in the bigger picture here. You know, if you
pick like fifty three percent of the games correct, like
you're doing really well.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
If you're an.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
NFL book, you know, a prognosticator. It's just it's difficult.
And even now I have been information, I still wouldn't
bet because even when you talk to people, I just would.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
I just know how this works. You lose.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I'd lose two games on Saturday, then I would try
to double up and win on Sunday, and then I'd
go all in on Monday night and no bad.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
And I get it.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
I understand it that people get in and then you
can't get out. But now it just feels like, what's
wrong with you? You're not gambling? You don't have a bet? Uh,
Robbie and idaho, Hi Robbie.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (30:38):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Hey, doing good? Good good good good.
Speaker 15 (30:41):
The term for the for the all Star is on
all star and bus is a bus. The one term
word a chantel. My daughter who calls my wife mid
because she does a dress clamorous and she doesn't dress crappy,
So mid is the word. They're not great, they're not superstars.
Speaker 11 (30:57):
They're not.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
The mid mid that sounds like young kids like riz,
like charisma.
Speaker 6 (31:06):
Yes, yeah, my daughters keep me up on all this.
And about two years ago mid was I'd be like, oh,
what do you.
Speaker 5 (31:12):
Think of that car? That's kind of mid? I'm like,
oh like mediocre?
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Cap no cap, yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Yeah, is there any other one that I need to know?
Speaker 6 (31:23):
It goes by year. Cap was about four years ago.
Riz was about two years ago. Mid was about two
years ago.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Okay, which now.
Speaker 6 (31:33):
They still call anyone bra, even girls Brah. They started
every sentence with bra really like bro, but bra.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Low key low key is a way.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
To introduce almost any sentence from when my daughter's like,
low key, Dad, You're not taking us to the ice
cream place, and I'm like, I don't know what you're saying.
You figure it out when you hear all the kids say,
low key is a big one. I could low key past.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
His test if I just studied for twenty minutes.
Speaker 7 (32:04):
Yes, sus is the thing my son's been using. But
he's also in fifth grade, so it turns down. Yeah,
Paul's daughters are older by like, oh, dang, that's so
sus call me sus one more time?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
Is that suspect? Yes, okay, all right, other kids.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
I know that my kids couldn't say three words without
saying the word like. It'd be like and and then
you know, and then like and then you know and
then like and I said, can how about we take
out like and they go what do you mean? I
go no, every third word is like and they're like
like and then like and I go, see, like I

Speaker 6 (32:50):
Yes, we also, boyfriend and girlfriend are not common words.
They're talking, Yeah, what's going on with uh? Jane and
Steve they're talking. Oh, they're talking.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
That means Jane old school man, Timmy and Sally.
Speaker 5 (33:07):
Logan and Riley and Steve.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Oh, they're talking, yeah, they're talking names. Okay, all right,

Speaker 1 (33:22):

Tigers pitcher to win at least ten games before the
All Star, breaking consecutive seasons since Mac Scherzer did it

All Right, Todd Best and Worst of the Weekend.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
Best of the Weekend.
Speaker 12 (34:21):
I went with my wife to see f one over
the Weekend with Brad on Saturday, Brad Pitt and that
was a feel good movie this summer, and I really
liked it a lot. I know Seat in a while
back to start with the Sun, and I thought it
was really really good. I don't watch a lot of
F one personally, but I got into it. Worst of
the Weekend passing. You mentioned that earlier, passing up two
time World twis Camp, seven time All Star, NMBP two
batting titles The Cobra Dave Parker. He was gonna be
(34:42):
inducted into the Hall of Fame next month, so the
timing was extra terrible with that.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Yeah, yeah, Seat O'Connor.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
That F one movie, by the way, is like it's
kind of top gunish, but with Formula one, it's really
really good. It's really good, Okay. Best of the Weekend.
UFC three seventeen Illio Toopeia. He is now the lightweight champion.
He's seventeen and zero, so he's got a perfect record.
(35:10):
And from what I read, I don't pay attention to
UFC that much, but lightweight seems to be the most
competitive division in UFC, so those stakes that stage, that's
pretty spectacular for him. My worst of the weekend. Lance
mccullor's junior back from injury through three innings and a
third gave up eight runs, three home runs, two in
(35:32):
a single inning. Just got absolutely cooked. That's not the
way you want to come back from injury. No, sorry, buddy.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Yeah, Marvin.
Speaker 7 (35:39):
Best and worst, my best or worst, depending on which
way you look at it. The Angels walked National slugger
James Woods four times. That's the first time somebody's been
intentionally walked four times since Barry Bonds in two thousand
and four. I don't know whether you want to call
that the best of the worst, but.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
And look, he's good. I mean, he's twenty two years
of age. I mean, are you walkworthy?
Speaker 7 (36:02):
They're treating him like Bonds for MVP Bond. All right,
My other best it was announced we're on the season
premiere for Celebrity Family Fuse.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Oh that's right, yes, yes, yes, July tenth, Thursday night.
It's The Dan Patrick Show on display against Rich Eisen's team.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Yeah, the season premiere. Oh it is yes, really, yes,
the season premiere. Yes.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Yeah, they're going in and everybody's gonna have a tough
act to follow after this. I think Taraji p Henson
her team. I don't know who they're facing, but they're
on the same hour.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Show with us, Yes, Marvin Jennifer Hudson. Oh okay, all right,
so I think it's an hour show with two half
hour games and we're in there. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Are people going to be surprised? Without giving anything away?
Will they be surprised when they see our episode? And
this is just yes or no. I don't want to
get into details. We were told we're not allowed to
talk about. We don't want to spoil anything for anybody.
Will there be any surprise? Will people be surprised at anything?
(37:24):
Marvin Us? No, okay, Paul, No, We're all about content, Todd.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
I don't think so, No, Satan. Will people be surprised? Yes,
I do think so. Yeah, I do too. I think
people are going to be surprised, Yes, yes, I do.
I do, uh so, Marvin. Best and Worst of the weekend? Okay, Paul,
Best of the weekend.
Speaker 6 (37:49):
I'm gonna go back to the National Darts Championship and
the coverage is unbelievable. The way it's produced, the music,
the pace, the crowd. It's really good TV. I did
like two hours on it the worst of the weekend.
I don't have but the NHL draft right after the
NBA draft, they announced their trades before the pick. They
make sure the draft sticks around and if he needs
(38:10):
another picture with said hat, they get it. I don't
know why the NFL and NHL can announce trades before
pick and the NBA can't.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
I don't understand it.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Next time the commissioner's on, I'll talk to her. Let's
play the NFL trade game. Do we have some music
for the NFL trade game?
Speaker 11 (38:30):
There?
Speaker 5 (38:31):
It is, all right, Paul, it's a little fill in
the blank day.
Speaker 6 (38:34):
Okay, Blank have finalized a trade to acquire all Pro
cornerback Jalen Ramsey from the Dolphins, Sources tell Tom Pellasero
of NFL.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
Network Blank the Rams. No.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
Who would like to go next?
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Todd Minnesota, No, Marvin the Ravens, No, Seaton Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
No, the Pittsburgh Steelers are acquiring Jalen Ramsey for good.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
Dolphins.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
All right, we're all in it. Thinks they're getting pretty
serious over there. Then we're all in it for at
least one year. Ye at least one year. Okay, Paul
and Iowa Hi, Paul, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 11 (39:22):
Hey Dan? Hey Dan, Well, I have a best of
the weekend for you too. Des Moines Buccaneers drafted straight
to the NHL in the NHL draft. Shot out to
Ben Keevan and Eddie Ingle going straight from the USHL
to the NHL. And then a thought on your middling
number one pick conversation. I heard Sam Bradford's name mentioned,
but quarterbacks can't be used. They're just outliers in money
(39:45):
and draft positions. So how about the Travon Walker Award
twenty twenty two, number one overall pick ten Saxony to
the last two seasons. Pretty serviceable.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
No, that's good. I'm fine with that, Thank you, Paul.
People just don't remember that he was the number one pick.
But Max Crosby came out and said he's the best
pass rusher in the game and look forward to playing
against the best quarterback in the game, and Patrick Mahomes
twice this year.
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Yes, Ma Freymon Walker's up there with Eric Fisher as
far as the most unknown number one pick ever.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Russell Maryland is also one.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah, when you get the there's no quarterback available, Jake Long, Yeah,
Jake Long certainly in there. That's a good call. We'll
get some more phone calls coming up eight seven to
seven to three. DP Show email address DPA Danpatrick dot com,

(40:47):
I watched over the weekend. I watched the golf over
the weekend, watching baseball over the weekend. CFL, Yeah, unless
it was on replay or something. But I just tuned
in and all of a sudden, it's like Canadian Football
League and uh, what's what's the Red Blacks?
Speaker 3 (41:08):
Is that what they're called? Yeah, the Ottawa Red red Blacks.
Speaker 5 (41:13):
Great team.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Okay that whether they were the rough Riders or the
rough Riders.
Speaker 5 (41:21):
There were two rough Rider teams.
Speaker 2 (41:23):

was rough Riders. Two hours in the books, one more

iHeartRadio Fox Sports Radio as well.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
All Right, the NBA Free Agency month got underwigh this weekend,
and the biggest ish news is Lebron is going to
stay in Los Angeles. I don't know if anybody's surprised.
I think the surprising part was his agent, his representative,
Rich Paul, kind of making it, well, not kind of
making it public.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Of Hey, Lebron wants to win. Now.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
We know you're thinking about the future. The future is
now for Lebron James. I'm sure the front office really
appreciated Rich Paul going public with that and saying what
didn't need to be said. I think the front office
is well aware that this might be lebron last year,
but he's going to opt in. He has no trade clause,
(01:28):
and I didn't know if it was going to be
a two year deal or a one plus, but by
all accounts, it's a one year deal. And Rich Paul
pointing out to the Lakers that Lebron still wants to win.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
All right, poll question, Seaton, what do we have? Well,
we got two of them right now.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
We have up there in which league is it toughest
to go from worst to first? And I only put
up three right now. I put up NBA, MLB and
the NFL toughest to go worse the first.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Right now?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Major League Baseball is winning that one, okay, and I
think that's going to change.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
We also have to put up there, and this is
a little bit of a topic, but is there a
term for a player who is neither a bust nor
a star that goes first overall? So DeAndre Ayton, Yes,
this is called the DeAndre Ayton Poll okay.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Because I think he's going to be a free agent.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
He was number one pick, but he was also number
one pick in the draft that gave us Luca and
Trey Young as well.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
But DeAndre Ayton.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
He went to the University of Arizona, and the owner
at the time, I think Robert Sarver, thought let's keep
the local talent in Arizona, not thinking that maybe we
get a generational talent or a worldwide talent. But not
everybody knew about Luca, and I mean, let's be fair
(02:58):
about this that I did watch. I watched highlights of
him in Europe, and I just thought that he was
barely getting by people, barely getting his shot off.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
And then I realized that's what he does in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
He barely gets by you, barely gets his shot off,
but he does it every single time. Trey Young I
thought was going to be a thing. I thought that
he would be a guy who could be a specialist.
Turned out that he's a really good passer as well.
But DeAndre Ayton, I don't think he's bad enough to
(03:32):
be a bust. But I don't think he's good enough
to be one of those guys that you look and
say he was worthy of the number one pick.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Yes, Pauline.
Speaker 6 (03:42):
He's been in the league DeAndre Ayton for seven years.
He averages about fourteen and ten.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
He's had.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
The best season was his second year, he averaged eighteen
to eleven. He has never made an All Star team
in seven years.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I don't think he's going to make it all now.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
So we know what we know about his career.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Yes, we need a term disappointing that almost seems harsh, unfulfilled.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Yeah, you could do that, like we're looking for one word.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Yeah, not a bust nor a star.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Seen, when you look at number one overall picks for
years and years and years surrounding that one, he's doing
pretty well compared to everybody else. He's significantly more successful
than a lot of dudes that went number one overall.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
It's a lot of times it's just like Peyton Manning
and Ryan Leaf.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
You know that Ryan Leaf was viewed to bust.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
He was never gonna, you know, and it made it
worse because Peyton was one of the greats of all time.
So sometimes Sam Bouie not his fault, but he was
injury prone, and you know, they ended up taking Sam
Bouie in Portland. Michael Jordan was in the draft. So
I think that has to do with how we look
at you. Of we could have had him, and Ayton
(05:06):
is serviceable, I could see him playing for the Lakers,
but I don't know if serviceable is.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
I don't know. Hey, how would you describe his talents serviceable? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (05:19):
Point also in that draft with DeAndre Ayton, Luca Trey Young,
as you said, SGA and Jalen Brunson were in that draft.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Okay, Yeah, that doesn't help in how we look at you.
But if you said, hey, this guy's going to average
sixteen and ten for his career and he's the number
one overall pick, I'm good. If he was like the
eighth pick in the draft, you'd go, hey, wow, all right,
sixteen ten, that's good.
Speaker 7 (05:46):
Yes, Mark, See, he needed to be in the Anthony
Bennett draft. There was nobody in that drift. Good career
by him.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Yeah, Cabs would have had a good guy, good player,
sixteen and ten, serviceable, Yes, you'll take it.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I would.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
I don't know what the ceiling was when you say unfulfilled.
Unfulfilled because he's the number one pick, or was he
a guy that people thought, man, this guy is going
to be I thought Jaron Jackson Junior the third was
going to be great, and and he's he's really good.
But I thought he was going to be great. That
he could play defense, offense, he could shoot, he had range, blockshot,
(06:31):
you know, all those things. But he was in that
draft too, wasn't he Marvin Jaren Jackson Junior the third?
Did he go like third was going?
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah? So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
If we look at the ceiling and then go and
like how high is the ceiling for DeAndre Aiden? And
if he's that good, why is he on the move again? Yes, Marvin,
because he's just serviceable. Okay, He's not a franchise changer.
And I think that's the issue. They were thinking about
the old school days of the nineties. We need to
dominate big man, And you had Trey Young and Luca
(07:05):
right there. But to your defense, nobody knew.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Luca, no, buddy, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (07:12):
We need a comp in another sport, a player who
has taken number one overall, probably a quarterback who didn't
have a bad career, just never really paid off. Sam Bradford.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Serviceable.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
I don't think he made a Pro Bowl.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
He made a lot of money.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
Yes, he did, so did DeAndre Aid. Yeah, that's Sam
Bradford might be it because Jamis Winston's been a bit
of a disappointment, but he had some decent years. I'd
say more of a disappointment for Jamis as the number
one pick.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
But wasn't he the first member of the thirty thirty club.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Which you don't want to be.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Oh, you don't want to be in that thirty thirty.
Speaker 5 (07:57):
Yes, yes he.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Baseball doesn't really have this conversation because you don't know
anybody until it's like, all right, let's see if that
four hundred and fifty million dollars.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
Is worth it.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
That's going to be tricky, but there aren't really busts
or anything.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
I mean when you think back and you go number
one pick in the draft, it's because the number one
pick normally doesn't go right into Major League Baseball.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
We get ten of these dudes in the NFL and
the NBA, we get a million of these dudes a year.
Then you don't even have to be the number one
overall pick.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
But we focus I think we focus on the number
one pick in hockey probably more than we do in
baseball because it feels like those players are generational talent
and chances are they're going to be playing in the
NHL right away.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
Yes, boy, one that stands out. Two thousand and nine,
we covered him a lot. Steven Strasburg out of San
Diego State. He was supposed to be in this last
twenty years. He was the most before schemes, the most
publicized pitcher going into the league. He had a good
career one thirteen and sixty two. He made three All
Star teams, never won a cy Young.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Oh he did win over one hundred games.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Yeah, I got him well.
Speaker 6 (09:06):
He pitched thirteen years, one hundred and thirteen wins. He
had a couple of good seasons with over fifteen wins
one thirteen and sixty two, three All Star peers.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
I remember, and I likened Steven Strasburg to Jadavian Clowney
with the hype because I remember John Smoltz was talking
his first game he did in the minor leagues, Steven Strasburg.
I remember Smoltz was talking about they had these glowing
reviews like he was the perfect pitcher.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
He was the perfect pitcher. Jadavian Clowney.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Oh my gosh, we've never seen this before when the
mother Ship went out to his pro day. And there's
no perfect player. There are times when we look at
somebody and you can't miss, well, you can miss. We've
seen that happen. And Steven Strasberg was just like Mark Pryor.
Mark Pryor was the perfect pitcher. Now the Dodgers pitching coach.
(09:58):
You had expert who were looking at him in his form,
everything about him, it was great, he's going to be dominating. Well,
he wasn't overused with the Cubs with Carrie Wood and
never really reached that potential that people had for him.
But when it comes to number one pick on the
draft in baseball, I don't think that we even remember,
(10:21):
like that guy was a ninth round draft and you
know Albert Poohols, what was he thirteenth round draft pickers
and you know, we just don't think about it that way.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Or it feels like.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
You're giving away the future of your team because maybe
you missed on the number one pick in the draft.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
In football or in basketball. That certainly is the feeling. Yes, Marvin, I.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Don't know much about hockey, but I do remember this
name when I was young, about him being.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
The next guy.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Eric Lindros.
Speaker 7 (10:49):
Yeah, I think he was the number one pick overall
and they talked about him like crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Well he had concussions and yeah, he wasn't able to
live up to the hype he was supposed to be,
like that's the new hockey player. He's big and he's fast, powerful,
not quite Lmu, but that feeling of you know, wow,
he's different. Let's see John in Pennsylvania. Hi John, Best
(11:17):
and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 8 (11:19):
Hi Dan, It's sixty one two twenty today. I'll start
with my best of the weekend. And I don't know
if you've seen this, but omegaball I caught Omega ball.
It's fascinating. It's soccer played in a circle and it's
three teams every thirty three degrees on this circle, there's
a goal and you got fifteen guys going out there
(11:41):
for the ball. Not a big soccer fan, but this
was really cool. If you get a chance to catch
some Omega ball on the mother Ship, it's it's it's neat,
it's exciting. It's a smaller circle than a regular soccer pitch.
But I don't know if you've seen it, maybe Polly has,
but very very very cool. All right, my worst of
(12:02):
the weekend.
Speaker 9 (12:03):
As I was wrapping up the weekend last night, I
caught some of the Air Guitar Championship air jam off,
and these guys are dressed up in costume, some like
the Ultimate Warrior. There was a Freddie Mercury in red.
There was something and they're air guitaring and it's a
terrain wreck. It's I couldn't take my eyes off of it,
(12:25):
of course, but.
Speaker 8 (12:27):
I just I got the.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
Chills, you know, those embarrassment chills that you get when
somebody does something they're so stupid.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
All right, well, thank you, John. I would say you
probably need to get a life.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
John, just say.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Maybe you need to maybe a stream made me stream something. Yeah,
a lot of things to stream, thank you.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
Jo.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
I didn't see those events, but I did watch some
of the National Darts Championship this weekend, and the coverage.
Whatever you think of darts, the coverage is fantastic. They
know how to produce that show. It's the place is
going crazy.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Backroom guys went, Yeah, Dylan Ray Bad Larry I think
came up.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
They went it was Madison Square Garden. They went to
the Dart Championship.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Let's see Steven la Hi, Steve, what's on your mind?
Speaker 10 (13:16):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Now?
Speaker 10 (13:17):
Dpy Hey, Uh, I just want to give you a complimentary,
complimentary comp You guys are the Howard Stern of sports
talk radio. So that's one thing that's a great comp
By the way, Uh another nickname, I got a nickname
for you, Black Jesus Michael. And I also wanted to
(13:40):
ask you Friday, you guys were you were talking about
kind of being broke, not poor, but broke for not
having enough money when you were young. What was the
nicest thing for the first nice thing you bought when
you started making money?
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Thank you, Steve. Yeah, we weren't poor growing up. We
just didn't There was certain things we didn't have.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
We were limited. How's that six kids and we had
one and a half bathrooms and having two sisters, and
you just did you just dealt with it.
Speaker 11 (14:18):
But I.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Feel bad if I embarrassed my brothers and sisters by
comments that I was making. We just we didn't have things,
that's all. But you know, we made us better workers.
That's why we're all pretty successful in what we do,
you know, our different walks of life. But no, we
we just didn't have that stocked refrigerator, and you know,
(14:42):
you go to your friend's house and all of a
sudden there's like twinkies there and ding dongs and you
get chocolate milk and wonderbread. Like there's things that stand
out when you go to somebody else's house and that
you know that happened. But I just remember one Christmas
(15:04):
went down the street and this family you couldn't walk,
you couldn't walk on the floor because the entire floor
was full of gifts and we got three gifts at Christmas.
And even then, it didn't you weren't necessarily getting what
you wanted. And uh it always socks always, you know,
(15:29):
your stocking stuffer was full of socks and underwear and
you're like okay, or gloves and you're like all right,
you know, but hey, no boohoo made us stronger. At
the time, I was pissed, but uh, you know I learned.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
I learned to deal with it.
Speaker 7 (15:49):
Yes, marm It's like, did you go to your friend's
house to see name brand cereal?
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Yes, Like whoa yeah, fruit loops. We've been eating fruitios.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Uh yeah, you know that when there's soda in the refrigerator.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
And you're like, wait, can you just take that?
Speaker 11 (16:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Do you want to take a coke? If you want one?
Speaker 10 (16:12):
Damn?
Speaker 11 (16:13):
What is this.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Way this exists?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
And then you go home and then you say to
your mom, oh, I was over at Scott mckevitch's place
and his refrigerator is packed. Well, why don't you spend
more time over at Scott mkevitch's place.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
And I'd be like, okay, yes, you.
Speaker 12 (16:33):
Are more reasonably asking for something like a can of soda.
We would see like the new Atari video cartridge at
someone's house was something that was far more expensive, and
we'd throw a temper tantament so we got that.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Oh no, we I remember the greatest Christmas I ever had.
I was playing with a gift and then my mom
came down and she said, oh, that's your brother, Bill's.
So I had to give up the best gift I
ever had, and it was my brother.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
It wasn't for you, it wasn't for me.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
No.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
I'm like, God, this is great, and I think my
mom mislabeled, and all of a sudden I'm like, dang,
this is awesome, And all of a sudden she goes, oh, Danny,
that's for Bill.
Speaker 8 (17:14):
What what?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Once again it made me stronger, made me stronger. I'm stronger,
all right. When we come back, we'll talk some gambling
and the FBI or there's a there's an investigation of
federal investigation into a member of the NBA's Detroit Pistons.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Well, take a break, I'm back after this.

We will give you our best and worst of the
weekend coming up in twenty minutes. More of your phone
calls as well. Satan poll question for hour two is what.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
Well, right now we got up there for hour one,
which sport is it toughest or which league is it
toughest to go worse?
Speaker 3 (18:36):
The first.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
Early results is still Major League Baseball at about fifty
three percent. NBA and NFL is split. I don't know
if that's correct. I really don't know if that's right.
We're still trying to workshop some ideas for the DeAndre
Ayton poll question. You're not a bust and you're not
a star, but you went number one overall.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Are you?
Speaker 4 (18:58):
Some people have said efforting in progress after seven years.
I don't know if anything's going to change. But if
the Lakers need a big man and brook Lopez isn't
the answer, because Laker fans are like, hey, what about
brook Lopez. He's not a rebound like, he's not an
(19:19):
inside guy, and he's old. He's a he's a good
perimeter player, but he's not your typical big man.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
So Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
David Purdham covers gambling for ESPN, and the story is
Malik Beasley of the Pistons. Uh, there's an FBI probe
with him. Well, David joins us. Now, what exactly is
Beasley accused of doing?
Speaker 11 (19:45):
So?
Speaker 14 (19:45):
Pedro authorities are investigating him all allegations of gambling on
the NBA related to games and prop bets. That's according
to his attorney. So exactly the details of which games
of what went down with him are still unknown at
the time. But he is the third NBA player in
just the last eighteen months to be reportedly under investigation
(20:07):
by the FEDS for betting allegations. And the joints Johntay
Border and Terry Roch here.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Okay, this is different than the NBA investigating. What happens
when there's a federal probe? How do they investigate as
opposed to what the NBA would do.
Speaker 14 (20:22):
Well, this all started back again with the johns Porter thing,
and they subpoenaed some of the sports books for betting
records for individuals that they suspected may have been involved.
And so my working premise is that they probably had
those subpoena records, the betting records, went through and see
what some of the unusual betting activity on some of
these other games. So they're working through everything right now,
(20:45):
communicating with the sports books, the attorneys and so forth
to see where it goes.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Okay, but give us a red flag.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Give us what happens when all of a sudden somebody goes,
wait a minute, something suspicious.
Speaker 14 (20:59):
That's a great question. And when bookmakers really are convinced
that something is untoward is going on is when they
move the odds right. So a prop bet may be
over under two and a half for rebounds or whatever,
and instead of moving you know, up to four and
a half, will adjust the big on if you want
to bet the over, it may be minus two hundred.
(21:21):
When they bet just the odds, and the betters don't
stop betting it and just keep betting it even though
these odds have moved against them, it is a major
red flag.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
In flag.
Speaker 14 (21:31):
Some bookmakers will tell me they will do it intentionally,
moving overly aggressive, move these odds so crazy that nobody
that is really trying to bet it seriously will keep betting.
And yet people do keep betting it, and then they
know something's going on.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
How dangerous are prop bets since an individual can control
a lot of what its numbers are.
Speaker 14 (21:53):
Yeah, certainly they are more easily to be manipulated than
a full game. If you just have a player that's
over under on rebounds or three pointers made or points.
That's what happened with the John say Porter situation. There
was all these bets on unders on his statistics. Then
he had took himself out of the game within minutes
and so all the unders hit. So partly excuse me.
(22:17):
Prop bets definitely are a concern. There's a debate to
be had whether we should be offering in the regulated
market prop bets on all these individual players.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Well, I know that college took away the prop bets,
or you know, Vegas took away prop bets on college athletes.
Speaker 14 (22:35):
Correct some of the states that Vegas has not about.
I think there's about eighteen states that now prohibit individual
player props on college athletes.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yeah, because you know that's tricky when you're a college
kid and you know what happens here. David I mentioned
this that these guys probably thinking nobody's going to notice this. Hey,
I'm going to do this, nobody will notice. Well, Vegas
has to notice this, like they like, it's imperative that
they notice these things. And anybody out there who thinks
(23:05):
nobody is going to notice if I do just this
or this and I play for this team nobody follows,
you know, University of Alabama, Birmingham, they do.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
They have to.
Speaker 14 (23:19):
You're right one hundred percent, and you'll hear people go, oh,
the sportsbooks are no. The sportsbooks are the ones that
lose when these bets are not on the up and up.
They're the ones that detect it. So you're absolutely right
there the things. There's what's the saying. You know, two
people can keep a secret. If it gets past there,
it's over. Greed starts to get involved. Hey, I made
(23:40):
a little money here from keeping it quiet. Let me
tell my buddy. He makes a little bit money. All
of a sudden, there's this flood of money coming in
on these random games that people are like, where is
this coming from? So it does to get detected.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
NBA hasn't responded yet to Malik Beasley.
Speaker 14 (23:56):
That's correct. They said they are cooperating with the federal investigation.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Good to talk to you again, David. It won't be
the last time I talked to you, that's for sure.
David Purdham, he covers gambling for ESPN. They notice these things.
They're just little things, but you know they need to
have all of this, like the transparency and That's why
whenever there's a gambling controversy scandal, I always look to
(24:24):
Vegas and say, you did your job, because they have
to notice these things.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Now, that doesn't mean.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
You still can't manipulate a game and get away with it,
but I think it's if you're playing a long game,
you're gonna get caught because it's their job. They're losing
money because you're trying to make money. And prop bets,
I know they're fun, but those are the ones that
(24:51):
you can manipulate. If you're over under is two and
a half rebounds, I mean, and I don't know how
much money. A lot of these books won't let you
put a lot of money on prop bets because you know,
it feels like that's more of a that's a fun bet.
But if I have over under on Shay Gilgess Alexander
(25:12):
thirty three and a half points, I don't know if
there's a limit on what I can put on that.
But if it's you know, Johnte Porter two and a
half assists in a game, Hey, how much money can
I put on that? And if you do put a
lot of money on it, doesn't that kind of jump
out at you and you go, wait a.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Minute here, yeah, pauling.
Speaker 6 (25:34):
And it's actually easier to get caught these days. Back
in Vegas there is no paper trail back in the
Vegas days, and now with all these different casino commissions,
they don't want these things to happen. And so when
there's a red flag of a betting in a game
with an LSU Alabama baseball game that story a couple
years ago, they turn in those spikes of bets. They
turn them in because they don't want this to happen.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
And you know, whether it's DraftKings or fan duel, those
are the two big ones. You know, those are all
monitored because they want it to be legitimate.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
They I mean, the last thing you want.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
If you're the commissioner of any of these leagues, you
cannot have a gambling scandal. Certainly not the NFL, and
they had one back in the sixties with Paul Horning
and Alex Carris and those guys got suspended for a year.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
But they monitor. I don't care where you are, they're
going to monitor.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's why you'll find a lot of guys who don't
want to bet through these regular sites. Well, or they'll
have somebody that they know who will bet through these sites,
or you do something where you have an illegal bookmaker
because they don't want to be declaring, you know, the
profits here.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
So there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I mean, this is it's only going to get worse
from the standpoint of these kind of moments. Here there's
billions and billions and billions of dollars at stake. That's
why all of these leagues, every one of these commissioners
probably said publicly, will never allow gambling. Roger Goodell, I
think in twenty twelve, oh, will never, will never do that.
(27:11):
I went okay, and then all of a sudden they realized,
what is my piece of the pie? Holy bleep, gambling
for everybody?
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Yay. I mean, I would.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Love to find out exactly what changed in twenty twelve
to now for the commissioner of the NFL, just philosophically,
what happened?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
What changed here?
Speaker 4 (27:38):
As we have always said it was, we're not going
to allow gambling until we found a responsible way for
all parties involved. And that's what we find today.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And we found out how much money we're going to make,
billions and billions of dollars. Oh, the righteous, the righteous commissioners.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
Yes, Paul, you remember about six years ago, a defensive
back for the Arizona Cardinals got caught. He walked up
at the Caesar sports book in Vegas and made a bet.
They identified who he was, and the sportsbook turned him
into the Devanda gaming board and then to the NFL.
Went right to the NFL. He got caught within days.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
You're not invisible, you think you are. Nobody will notice this.
Hey I can do this. That'd be fun. Hey, I
want to bet too. No, you play in the NFL.
You're a wide receiver. Oh, but I would like to
come on. I want to have some fun. Hey, I'll
place a bet for you.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (28:35):
Whenever pro athletes get caught for a little betting scandal,
there's always some people on social media say, oh, it's
so hypocritical. All of us can bet, and the leagues
are taking money. Why can't the players bet. I go
on flights and I'll have a beer when I'm in
you know, coach, because I'm having a beer. I don't
want the pilots to have a beer, you know what
I mean. We're in the same plane, but they're not
allowed to have a beer.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
I am Yeah, amazing and I know, look, I speak
from experience, but I have a type a personality, and
I realize that you can get in and get underwater quickly.
And it feels like now society has made it feel
(29:18):
in my opinion of what's wrong with you. You're not gambling, well,
you did in place a bad and it's way too easy.
If it's fun, if it's if it's monitored, if you
do a good job and understanding exactly, you're never going
to win. Okay, you might win temporarily, you don't win
(29:42):
usually in the bigger picture here. You know, if you
pick like fifty three percent of the games correct, like
you're doing really well.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
If you're an.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
NFL book, you know, a prognosticator. It's just it's difficult.
And even now I have been information, I still wouldn't
bet because even when you talk to people, I just would.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
I just know how this works. You lose.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
I'd lose two games on Saturday, then I would try
to double up and win on Sunday, and then I'd
go all in on Monday night and no bad.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
And I get it.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
I understand it that people get in and then you
can't get out. But now it just feels like, what's
wrong with you? You're not gambling? You don't have a bet? Uh,
Robbie and idaho, Hi Robbie.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (30:38):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Hey, doing good? Good good good good.
Speaker 15 (30:41):
The term for the for the all Star is on
all star and bus is a bus. The one term
word a chantel. My daughter who calls my wife mid
because she does a dress clamorous and she doesn't dress crappy,
So mid is the word. They're not great, they're not superstars.
Speaker 11 (30:57):
They're not.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
The mid mid that sounds like young kids like riz,
like charisma.
Speaker 6 (31:06):
Yes, yeah, my daughters keep me up on all this.
And about two years ago mid was I'd be like, oh,
what do you.
Speaker 5 (31:12):
Think of that car? That's kind of mid? I'm like,
oh like mediocre?
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Cap no cap, yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Yeah, is there any other one that I need to know?
Speaker 6 (31:23):
It goes by year. Cap was about four years ago.
Riz was about two years ago. Mid was about two
years ago.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Okay, which now.
Speaker 6 (31:33):
They still call anyone bra, even girls Brah. They started
every sentence with bra really like bro, but bra.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
Low key low key is a way.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
To introduce almost any sentence from when my daughter's like,
low key, Dad, You're not taking us to the ice
cream place, and I'm like, I don't know what you're saying.
You figure it out when you hear all the kids say,
low key is a big one. I could low key past.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
His test if I just studied for twenty minutes.
Speaker 7 (32:04):
Yes, sus is the thing my son's been using. But
he's also in fifth grade, so it turns down. Yeah,
Paul's daughters are older by like, oh, dang, that's so
sus call me sus one more time?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
Is that suspect? Yes, okay, all right, other kids.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
I know that my kids couldn't say three words without
saying the word like. It'd be like and and then
you know, and then like and then you know and
then like and I said, can how about we take
out like and they go what do you mean? I
go no, every third word is like and they're like
like and then like and I go, see, like I
(32:46):
didn't even really like, I didn't know I was doing that.
Speaker 6 (32:50):
Yes, we also, boyfriend and girlfriend are not common words.
They're talking, Yeah, what's going on with uh? Jane and
Steve they're talking. Oh, they're talking.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
That means Jane old school man, Timmy and Sally.
Speaker 5 (33:07):
Logan and Riley and Steve.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
Oh, they're talking, yeah, they're talking names. Okay, all right,
we'll take a break.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
I watched a little bit of Trek Schouoble of the Tigers.
Whoo man. He is dynamite thirteen strikeouns, one hit over
seven innings, Tigers over the Twins. He is the first
Tigers pitcher to win at least ten games before the
All Star, breaking consecutive seasons since Mac Scherzer did it
(33:54):
a decade ago. All Right, Best and Worst of the Weekend,

All Right, Todd Best and Worst of the Weekend.
Speaker 5 (34:20):
Best of the Weekend.
Speaker 12 (34:21):
I went with my wife to see f one over
the Weekend with Brad on Saturday, Brad Pitt and that
was a feel good movie this summer, and I really
liked it a lot. I know Seat in a while
back to start with the Sun, and I thought it
was really really good. I don't watch a lot of
F one personally, but I got into it. Worst of
the Weekend passing. You mentioned that earlier, passing up two
time World twis Camp, seven time All Star, NMBP two
batting titles The Cobra Dave Parker. He was gonna be
(34:42):
inducted into the Hall of Fame next month, so the
timing was extra terrible with that.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Yeah, yeah, Seat O'Connor.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
That F one movie, by the way, is like it's
kind of top gunish, but with Formula one, it's really
really good. It's really good, Okay. Best of the Weekend.
UFC three seventeen Illio Toopeia. He is now the lightweight champion.
He's seventeen and zero, so he's got a perfect record.
(35:10):
And from what I read, I don't pay attention to
UFC that much, but lightweight seems to be the most
competitive division in UFC, so those stakes that stage, that's
pretty spectacular for him. My worst of the weekend. Lance
mccullor's junior back from injury through three innings and a
third gave up eight runs, three home runs, two in
(35:32):
a single inning. Just got absolutely cooked. That's not the
way you want to come back from injury. No, sorry, buddy.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Yeah, Marvin.
Speaker 7 (35:39):
Best and worst, my best or worst, depending on which
way you look at it. The Angels walked National slugger
James Woods four times. That's the first time somebody's been
intentionally walked four times since Barry Bonds in two thousand
and four. I don't know whether you want to call
that the best of the worst, but.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
And look, he's good. I mean, he's twenty two years
of age. I mean, are you walkworthy?
Speaker 7 (36:02):
They're treating him like Bonds for MVP Bond. All right,
My other best it was announced we're on the season
premiere for Celebrity Family Fuse.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
Oh that's right, yes, yes, yes, July tenth, Thursday night.
It's The Dan Patrick Show on display against Rich Eisen's team.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
Yeah, the season premiere. Oh it is yes, really, yes,
the season premiere. Yes.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Yeah, they're going in and everybody's gonna have a tough
act to follow after this. I think Taraji p Henson
her team. I don't know who they're facing, but they're
on the same hour.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Show with us, Yes, Marvin Jennifer Hudson. Oh okay, all right,
so I think it's an hour show with two half
hour games and we're in there. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
Are people going to be surprised? Without giving anything away?
Will they be surprised when they see our episode? And
this is just yes or no. I don't want to
get into details. We were told we're not allowed to
talk about. We don't want to spoil anything for anybody.
Will there be any surprise? Will people be surprised at anything?
(37:24):
Marvin Us? No, okay, Paul, No, We're all about content, Todd.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
I don't think so, No, Satan. Will people be surprised? Yes,
I do think so. Yeah, I do too. I think
people are going to be surprised, Yes, yes, I do.
I do, uh so, Marvin. Best and Worst of the weekend? Okay, Paul,
Best of the weekend.
Speaker 6 (37:49):
I'm gonna go back to the National Darts Championship and
the coverage is unbelievable. The way it's produced, the music,
the pace, the crowd. It's really good TV. I did
like two hours on it the worst of the weekend.
I don't have but the NHL draft right after the
NBA draft, they announced their trades before the pick. They
make sure the draft sticks around and if he needs
(38:10):
another picture with said hat, they get it. I don't
know why the NFL and NHL can announce trades before
pick and the NBA can't.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
I don't understand it.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Next time the commissioner's on, I'll talk to her. Let's
play the NFL trade game. Do we have some music
for the NFL trade game?
Speaker 11 (38:30):
There?
Speaker 5 (38:31):
It is, all right, Paul, it's a little fill in
the blank day.
Speaker 6 (38:34):
Okay, Blank have finalized a trade to acquire all Pro
cornerback Jalen Ramsey from the Dolphins, Sources tell Tom Pellasero
of NFL.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
Network Blank the Rams. No.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
Who would like to go next?
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Todd Minnesota, No, Marvin the Ravens, No, Seaton Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
No, the Pittsburgh Steelers are acquiring Jalen Ramsey for good.
Speaker 5 (39:07):
Dolphins.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
All right, we're all in it. Thinks they're getting pretty
serious over there. Then we're all in it for at
least one year. Ye at least one year. Okay, Paul
and Iowa Hi, Paul, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 11 (39:22):
Hey Dan? Hey Dan, Well, I have a best of
the weekend for you too. Des Moines Buccaneers drafted straight
to the NHL in the NHL draft. Shot out to
Ben Keevan and Eddie Ingle going straight from the USHL
to the NHL. And then a thought on your middling
number one pick conversation. I heard Sam Bradford's name mentioned,
but quarterbacks can't be used. They're just outliers in money
(39:45):
and draft positions. So how about the Travon Walker Award
twenty twenty two, number one overall pick ten Saxony to
the last two seasons. Pretty serviceable.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
No, that's good. I'm fine with that, Thank you, Paul.
People just don't remember that he was the number one pick.
But Max Crosby came out and said he's the best
pass rusher in the game and look forward to playing
against the best quarterback in the game, and Patrick Mahomes
twice this year.
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Yes, Ma Freymon Walker's up there with Eric Fisher as
far as the most unknown number one pick ever.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Russell Maryland is also one.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yeah, when you get the there's no quarterback available, Jake Long, Yeah,
Jake Long certainly in there. That's a good call. We'll
get some more phone calls coming up eight seven to
seven to three. DP Show email address DPA Danpatrick dot com,
Twitter handle at dp show. And see anything else that
(40:47):
I watched over the weekend. I watched the golf over
the weekend, watching baseball over the weekend. CFL, Yeah, unless
it was on replay or something. But I just tuned
in and all of a sudden, it's like Canadian Football
League and uh, what's what's the Red Blacks?
Speaker 3 (41:08):
Is that what they're called? Yeah, the Ottawa Red red Blacks.
Speaker 5 (41:13):
Great team.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Okay that whether they were the rough Riders or the
rough Riders.
Speaker 5 (41:21):
There were two rough Rider teams.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
But one had rough and then Riders and then one
was rough Riders. Two hours in the books, one more
to go on this Monday, Dan Patrick Show.
