of the Day, all of that forthcoming. Chris Collinsworth from
(00:46):
Football Night in America. He will join us coming up
a little bit later on Former college coach now an
analyst for CBS Sports, Rick Neuheisel on what happened this
weekend in college and what he thinks will happen this
upcoming sea. He's an eight seven seven three DP show
operator Tyler sitting by. He'll take your phone calls in
no particular order. Today, I think America, maybe the world
(01:10):
was rooting for Tommy Fleetwood. Part of me he wanted
to see Scotty Scheffler put a little pressure on him.
But we've seen what happened. When there's been pressure on
Tommy Fleetwood, it usually doesn't end well. But he finally
got his first PGA win and it's a big one.
And I was talking to Charles Barkley yesterday afternoon, so
(01:30):
Charles called me about something playing golf, and I said.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Aren't you playing golf?
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Now?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
He goes, I'm watching Tommy Fleetwood. I put a lot
of money on Tommy Fleetwood. He better win it said, okay,
well you might get one right here. It looks like
he's going to hold on. But Fleetwood it was fun
to see because the expectations always been there when you
and that's what's tough. When you have the potential, you
(01:57):
have the expectation. It's not like he comes out of
no People have been waiting for him to come, you know,
to the forefront. And he did that yesterday and did
so in dramatic fashion and got his first win, and
that's a big one. College football is underway. I Aoway
stayed Hawaii UNLV got victories there. NFL preseason is over
(02:17):
and cuts our underway. As we speak, we'll come up
with the pole question. And by the way, when you
know we talk about preseason, it's officially behind us now,
but the real action is ready to begin. And keep
this in mind. Don't take any of it too seriously
because we fall into this trap every preseason. Caleb Williams
(02:39):
was supposed to light up the NFL. Marvin Harrison Junior
was going to be a Jamar Chase like rookie Kyron
Williams with the Rams.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
We thought he was going to be a punt returner.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
He ended up getting fourteen hundred yards and thirty three
million dollar contract in the off season. The point is
really simple with preseason, it's about a value, not prophecy.
And it feels like we want to project now we
got it all figured out.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Man Jackson Darton, he should be starting.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Uh, Dylan Gabriel looks great, Maybe he should be the
starter in Cleveland. We want to be the first to
tell you something, and that's why I always say just
to use caution because The real story starts now on
how good these guys are, how good these teams are.
And I watched a lot of preseason football the last
(03:29):
couple of days, and I still see a tendency with
young quarterbacks. This isn't going to be a referendum on
Shador Sanders, but I was watching him what happens with
quarterbacks when they come from the college ranks into the NFL.
And I'll talk to Rick Neuheisel about this later because
he played the position, coach the position in the NFL.
(03:51):
They these rookie quarterbacks tend to come in and they
take longer to get the ball out of their hands.
They think they have more time because in college, you
do and in college, your guy stays open longer. They're open.
In the NFL, they just don't stay open very long.
You can get away with a lot, and you get
bad habits. I was listening to Brady Quinn and Brady
(04:14):
the former Notre Dame quarterback, and I was listening to
him this morning driving in and he talked about how quarterbacks,
young quarterbacks already rule out one side of the field
when they go back to pass or they're in shotgun,
they will turn their hips, so their hips are pointing
towards the offensive line. So now you've taken away the
(04:34):
left side of the field and you're also holding onto
the ball. And this is what we saw this with
shad Or Sanders at Colorado. Yes, everybody talked about how
bad the offensive line was, but now that's not the
point here in the NFL. The point is you hold
onto the ball too long. He holds onto the ball
longer than any quarterback in preseason. Because you're waiting to
(04:56):
make a play, you have to take your losses, have
to get rid of the football, and you get sacked
five times, got pulled from the game. Although I didn't
understand that unless and my source with the Browns said
this to me, What if Kevin Stefanski wanted to see
how Shador Sanders would react to getting benched in the
(05:17):
final two minutes and Shador tried to talk his way
back into the lineup.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Once again, this was being speculated to me by a source,
and I said, okay, well, he did want to get
back in. He didn't play well, but I don't know
what kind of mind games you're playing. He just holds
onto the ball too long. Dylan Gabriel, you know, he
gets the ball out in rhythm. And when you're playing
(05:45):
at Oregon and you know, quicker quicker, quicker, quicker, and
you saw that. You know, Caleb Williams got the run
of the place at USC with Lincoln Riley trying to
make a play hold on. You can't do that in
the It's so quick and you must react. And he
watching Shador, he had a guy his first read a
(06:08):
couple of times didn't throw. Once you go from you know,
your first to your second, and if you get to
a third, chances are you're going to be on your back.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
And that's what I saw.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
That's what I see with these young quarterbacks and they
have to get rid of these bad habits. But when
you go back to pass, you must stay with you know,
your body facing the line of scrimmage because now the
defense doesn't know if you're going to the left or
the right. But they go back to pass and then
they've got their hips pointed towards the offensive line. Well,
(06:40):
now you're not looking at the left side of the field.
And I saw that a couple of times. But Dylan
Gabriel has looked better than I think people are going
to give him credit for and I think Jackson Dark
has played really well. But I'm not surprised with Jackson Dark.
I thought he midway through the season. I said, I'm
getting a first round grade on this guy. And he's
(07:02):
played well, but I don't think he's ready to play
right now. Chador's not ready to play, but he's probably
still gonna make the roster. It's we get caught up
in oh my gosh, I've got this figured out, and
so many times we don't. And that showed once again
this weekend, where you're watching somebody and you're saying, is
that guy good? He was good last week, not this week? Well,
(07:24):
are you playing against the first team defense? Are you
playing with the starters? There's a lot that goes into it,
and that's where I think we all want to go.
I got that situation figured out Seeton. What's pole question today?
We got a couple here from the to double D,
which is always a huge, huge tree on a Monday morning.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
We could start with one real quick which is a
bigger problem. Slow play in golf, slow play in baseball.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Patrick, can't I just hit the freaking ball, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Just hit it, dude, uh, slow play. And I think
we've all been around somebody who plays very, very slow.
But you're a professional, like at some point you would think, hey,
I'm pretty locked in.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Not let me be back away, let me get over it,
let me stand over it, let me let me let
me okay, I'm going to hit it. Oh, PAULI goes,
I thought, my my TV froze. I'm watching Patrick cantlay
and I go, oh, damn, my TV FROs It didn't
Patrick can't lay. Pull the trigger, nothing good happens. I
(08:42):
don't think when you wait that long when you're hitting
a golf shot, get up there, set up quick, remember Sergio. Oh,
and you've got to eventually get into a quicker rhythm.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
You've done this millions of times.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
It's not like us when we get out there, we're like, damn,
I have no idea where this is going. They have
a general idea where it's going. Pull the trigger? What else?
What else do you have? Seaton?
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Let me see here running through t o doves. Were
you rooting for Tommy Fleetwood yesterday?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yes, of course, yeah, yeah, I was. Yeah, And this
is what There are a lot of things that I
really like about him, starting with his blue eyes. But
you know, and he's got great hair too. But also
when he's lost, he's talked to the media, he's met
with the media, and I appreciate that. You know, Rory
(09:40):
is kind of scampered away and Colin Morikawwa. And I
think you owe it to the fans. Maybe not the media.
Maybe you don't like the media, but the fans are
the ones who want to understand what happened. They're rooting
for you. I think you owe it to the media
or the fans. The media, we're the conduit here, and
the are the ones who buy Callaway clubs or BMW
(10:04):
cars or come out and see you, because without them
then you don't get those endorsements. And Tommy Fleetwood stands
up and says exactly how he feels what happened, and
I think that is admirable. I've mentioned this before. Bill Buckner,
the ball goes through his legs and he answered everybody's
(10:25):
question after that World Series loss, one of the worst
moments in baseball history, and he answered every single question.
Mitch Williams gave up the home run to Joe Carter.
Toronto won the World Series Mitch Williams answered everybody's question
after that game, after that loss. These are tough situations,
(10:45):
but you get paid to be in tough situations, and
I think how you respond sometimes says a lot about you.
And I was rooting for Tommy because he needed this.
It's almost like Rory at a guy he had played poorly,
and all of a sudden he's just tripping over himself heading,
you know, down the stretch in the final couple of holes,
(11:08):
and it was like, just let him have this because
he can't take, you know, more of this pain, misery.
And that's how I felt with Tommy Fleetwood. Certain times,
I'm rooting for a situation because it's right for that situation,
and Tommy Fleetwood couldn't win, anything came close a couple
of times did win, and that's what I loved it,
(11:29):
you know, I said to Fritzi, although Fritzie almost gave
him the jinks the DP show jinks, he goes, what
do you think I'm going to reach out? And now
the tournament's not over yet. So the fourteenth hole, I
get a text from Fritzie and Fritzy says, hey, you
want me to reach out to Tommy Fleetwood, and all
of a sudden, I go home now and then Paul
goes Jinks and I was pulling for him.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
I didn't want to be a Jigs, but to discuss
the inviting him on the show five holes before it's
over was a little prevage.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Well, okay, but we didn't need to decide then because
nobody's going to talk. Hey, he's going to the fifteenth. Hey,
Todd Fritz wants to know if you can be on
the dance. Don't do that.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
I won't talk to him before that, I don't think.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
So let's put the bugget is here, just to let
him know that we're interested before everything's done.
Speaker 7 (12:12):
If you happen to win, this is one of the
guest opportunities.
Speaker 8 (12:14):
Yes, Paul Tommy Fleetwood has been on the PGA Tour
for ten, actually eleven years. He made twenty four million
dollars in his first ten years. Yesterday made ten million dollars.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
Stand of the Day, stant of a day, Start out
of the day, scant.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
Out of a day.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
This is the Stand of the Day.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Brought to you by Canadian America, the official trading cards
of the Dan Patrick Show. And I want to have
him on. I want to ask him about his the
role that his wife has played, because when you go
home after you lose, there's no cameras, nobody's you know,
following you, that it's lonely, and then you really got
(12:59):
to sit there and probably give your true feelings. And
the role that his wife played. I'd love for him
to talk about that, because that's usually where you got
to find a friend. You got to have somebody that
you can kind of just let it out. But good
(13:20):
for him. All right, what other poll questions do we
have today? Let's see, we've got many more after the break.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Oh wait, they're teasable. That's how great they are. Dan,
it came out on Monday. We're ready to play every
day as the super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Let's go. All right, we'll get to your phone calls
past and worst of the weekend. Collinsworth will have the
Thursday night game that will be the Eagles and the Cowboys.
Still no movement there on Micah Parsons. Still no movement
on Trey Hendrickson, and no movement on Terry McLaurin.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
It's gonna be a big week. Feels like a big week.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
And the difference with when you had the contract for
Dak Prescott that he agreed to on the day of
their first game last season. That's different because he was
going to play Micah Parsons. I just don't know if
you can go Sunday more or Thursday morning and go hey,
next Thursday and go hey, we agree to a deal,
(14:21):
now go out and play against the Eagles. I think
it's a different scenario there. And I always worry about
these guys who get in late and then all of
a sudden they want to prove if you get a
deal or you didn't get a deal, you want to
go out there and you play a little extra and
that's when you get hurt. But we'll take a break
phone calls. Welcome eight seven to seven, three DP show.
(14:42):
We'll talk about college football underway, Iowa State and k
State in Dublin, Hawaii against Stanford. I told you that
was my favorite game of the weekend and it turned
out to be a great finish there. And the preseason
is over. Cuts underway. If anybody have knows gets cut,
we'll bring that to your attention as well. We're back
(15:04):
after this from The Dan Patrick Show.

We talk about everything life, sports, relationships, what's going on
in the world.
Speaker 10 (15:34):
We have a lot of fun talking about the stories
behind the stories in the world of sports and pop culture,
stories that well other shows don't seem to have the
time to discuss.
Speaker 11 (15:42):
And the fact that we've been friends for the last
twenty years and still work together.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
I mean that says something, right.
Speaker 10 (15:47):
So check us out. We like to get you involved too,
take your phone calls, chop it up.
Speaker 11 (15:52):
As they say, I'd say, the most interactive show on

And if you miss any of the live show, just
search Covin on Rich wherever you get your podcasts, and
of course on social media that's Cavino and Rich.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
It's some Monday best and worst of the weekend, which
you saw that you liked, you didn't like. DraftKings just
sent me the national title odds. Texas is your favorite,
followed by the Ohio State, Penn State, Georgia, Clemson, Alabama,
and Notre Dame. Now they have twelve teen playoff. If
they go to fourteen or sixteen, Notre Dame will never
(16:34):
join a conference. There's no need to join a conference.
All they have to do is go ten and two
and they're a brand and they'll make the playoffs. Guarantee
you can control most of your schedule. They're taking out Michigan,
taking out USC eventually, and Notre Dame will be penciled in.
And if you happen to go to twenty four or
(16:56):
twenty eight, then of course Notre Dame is going to
be in there. But I think got to be careful
though with the twenty four to twenty eight. I know
it brings more teams in, but Rhys Davis was pretty
adamant about this on the Mothership this past weekend. You
just got to be careful college football is great. I
(17:18):
just don't want it to be college basketball. When's the
last time you really cared about a regular season game
in college basketball? It's really really rare. And we've expanded
the tournament. We'll continue to expand the tournament. There's money
to be made. There's more money to be made in
a college football playoff. I just hope that I almost
(17:39):
use the word integrity, my bet, I know strike that
from my vocabulary when it comes to college football, I
get it. I just I hope that they can prevent themselves.
Somebody needs to help them help themselves. And I'm here.
(18:00):
I don't go stay at twelve. I'm fine with that.
Make it something that is worthwhile. Not everybody gets to
do this. Give me some tension, automatic qualifiers. I don't
want that either. I do want strength to schedule. I
said before Indiana didn't deserve to be in there, and
(18:20):
you know these schools are giving a first round by too.
I just I don't think that that's fair. I think
you've got to somehow if you can create a level
playing field. But you can't until everybody is playing like
the NFL, everybody is going to have a similar schedule.
You're going to play the same teams, or this year
(18:41):
we play this division and next year we play that division.
That's as close as you're going to get to a
level playing field. And until we get there, I just
think you can open up with cupcakes. Notre Dame doesn't.
I don't know how tough their schedule is this year
where it ranks. But if you lose two games, still
going to make the play, depending on who you lose to.
(19:03):
I mean, you know, you lose to Northern Illinois, you
know that's gonna sting. That'll hurt you for a little while.
But if you lose to Clemson, that's different. But you know,
it feels like you got seven eight teams that can
win the national championship at least right now. All right,
Paully said that maybe we're mispronouncing Hawaii because I was
(19:26):
watching the game, got to see a lot of Andrew
Luck just a little too much for the general manager
of the Stanford football team. You know, they have that
little camera up there and then all of a sudden, they.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Would you would have thought he was coaching.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I think they showed him more than they did Frank Reich,
because Frank Reich is the head coach, and it felt
like Andrew Luck just about every other play, let's go
to Andrew Luck, and he wasn't doing anything other than watching,
and it felt like he was hovering over that that team.
He is the he's not the coach, and I think
(20:02):
that was what was kind of interesting to see. But
they ended up losing in a dramatic fashion, a game
they should not have lost. But the Bows come up
with a win. All right, let's.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Play the game, Todd. How do you pronounce Hawaii?
Speaker 7 (20:18):
Hawaii?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
See if I know what's wrong.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
But that's how I say, Seaton Hawaii, all right, Marvin Hawaii. Okay,
I'm going to go with Hawaii.
Speaker 5 (20:30):
Yes, yes, yes, I just want to go on the
record and say, no one in this room says Hawaii.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
No one here says Hawaii. Well, no one does.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
I do? Now don't, Yes, I do? And I came in.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
I said, hey, you won't even you won't even pronounce
it that way for the rest of the day.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I No one here says Hawaii. I promise, because I
was watching that game. Hawaii. Yes, Pauli.
Speaker 8 (20:53):
However, Hawaii is incorrect. The W does not exist. I
e haai. It's three syllables huh V E like vi.
The W is pronounced V like victory, and the last
syllable the okina the little flying comma there.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
That is also called a glottal stop. So it's a
I E. So you do a purposeful pause on the
E part. Haaii, Okay, have all right?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Who's in? I'm sure let's try it. It's like Dirk Novitski,
not Dirk Nowitzki. Yes see.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
I once took a flight from Haaii to Budapest and
it was lovely.
Speaker 8 (21:42):
I think we should try to be have E friendly.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
It's to do.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
We had to lay over in bars Alona, though Bartholona.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
My son corrected me one time when I said how
is Barcelona and he goes, it's Bartholona. I said, that's
the last time I'm paying for a vacation that your
son wants.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Me.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Laughed at me too, because I was describing a neighborhood
in Paris and he was like.
Speaker 12 (22:06):
It's els move. He laughed at me and corrected, me, No,
that's not it's not that. It's okay dude, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 8 (22:18):
The announcers, though on Saturday Night, clearly have been told
to stress the pronunciation correctly, because like, oh, look at that.
The running game is really coming along. There's a lot
of vite.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Okay, well that's what I learned today. We're only thirty
minutes into the show. Pretty quote, man set seet no way,
huh h Aiden in Utah. Oh remember when we last
left Aiden, he was going to get engaged this weekend
and Aiden in Utah, here we go.
Speaker 13 (22:49):
Okay, she said, yes, alright, all.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Right, walk me through it.
Speaker 14 (23:00):
H Okay.
Speaker 15 (23:02):
So it's not quite JFK at Baggy's.
Speaker 14 (23:05):
Time, but we had so I, like I said, told
her it was a family dinner, so I said she
was expecting she made a bunch of semin roles.
Speaker 15 (23:13):
I told her she didn't need.
Speaker 16 (23:14):
To, but she did anyways, and then you know, we'll
get up there. Nobody's there. She's like, why isn't anybody here? Like, well,
maybe they're just around this corner over here.
Speaker 15 (23:25):
Let's take a walk to go.
Speaker 14 (23:27):
There and go down the little trail the river and
then walk around the corner and then to marry me.
Sign and flowers and candle lights hanging from the trees.
I had the.
Speaker 15 (23:39):
Photographer in the way it was. It was about as
perfect as I could have made.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
It any issues, none of it.
Speaker 15 (23:48):
Well, when we first got out of the truck, there
was a hiker saying there's a rattlesnake on the trail,
and she really I was pretty much dragging her down
that trail because she does not like snakes at all.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
That sounds like something on NBC's Dateline. Why did he
go down the trail?
Speaker 7 (24:12):
The rattle among us when dateline continued.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Thank you Todd Well, Aiden, congratulations, thank you.
Speaker 15 (24:20):
Thank you for your help.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (24:23):
Now, I just made you to officiate the wedding.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
No no, no no no. If it's in Milford, Connecticut,
you got a shot. But other than that, no, because
I love love, but I don't officiate love. But thank you, Aiden,

and we're here in South Korea, and we here we
(25:32):
listen every morning to the podcast. So tomorrow will be
August twenty sixth for him, which will be a birthday.
So if I hear it, if you got to sing
it tonight, he will definitely hear it.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
In the morning.
Speaker 13 (25:42):
And I think that'll be a great gift from the team.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
What time is it there, it's a ten thirty at night?
Speaker 18 (25:49):
Yeah, yeah, ten third at night and doing a little
bit of multitasking. I got a couple meetings, but I
got them on hold as I'm doing that, trying to
be that good dad.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
All right, here we go, and you're so his name
is Sean, Sean alrighty. I thank you guys, Thank you, Pat,
thank you all right. Jeff in Columbus, Good morning, Jeff.
(26:18):
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Hey, good morning, Dan.
Speaker 17 (26:21):
I just wanted to touch on the uh Patrick can't
lay uh slow.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Motion start to his hitting.
Speaker 17 (26:28):
I'm one of the I run camera for networks and
I do a lot of golf shows and there's nothing
worse than being out there on a.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Tower at four or five hours a day.
Speaker 17 (26:37):
And then Patrick Cantley comes up and you're about to
fall asleep in your viewfinder waiting for him to hit
that ball, and you get your face in the view finder.
You try to block all the light out and nobody
can hear you, and you're just yelling, hit the ball.
Who are the worst offenders? Jeff uh Can'tley's one. Sergio
used to be, Brian Harmon used to be. He sped
(26:57):
it up a little bit. On the other end of that,
you gotta be careful if Dustin Johnson's coming up. You know,
if you're doing a live show, that guy, he wastes
no time in hitting and he will hit it fast,
even while the other ball that was hit first might
be rolling on the green and you can't come off
that shot. And you look out there and there's Dustin
Johnson in his back swing already.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Lud Big Oberg is quick. Oberg is quick. Oberg is quick.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
We appreciate the quick ones.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
We really do.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
When you're ready to get.
Speaker 17 (27:26):
Out of there. You don't want to see Patrick Cantley
coming up.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Thank you, Jem, thank you for that day. Uh Buddha
in San Francisco, Hi Buddha, what a VP.
Speaker 19 (27:38):
Happy Monday, boys, keep your head up, Fritzy. Best of
the weekend, Dan, I found myself explaining to a lady
Buddha in San Francisco yesterday, who fair way Jesus is?
And I was like, yeah, you know, baby, like, you know,
look at him. You know he had back when he
came on to the tour. He had longer hair and
(27:58):
it was really long and straight, like Jesus out there
playing golf. And I was thin, you know what, never mind,
I'm just happy for him, stoke for him. Good job.
Awesome to see that. Best of the weekend my Dodgers
in albeit not in their heaven white Unis hitting four
home runs into heaven yesterday and spank in San Diego.
(28:19):
Always nice to see that and taking over that first
place in that seesawt battle. And Dan I had a
question for you, do you guys are you guys doing
the calendar this year?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Yes, we are.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
In fact, we're shooting the final two months of the
calendar this week. The French Kid is coming in and yeah,
the calendar is going to be coming out in time
for the holidays.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Thank you for the phone call. David in Ohio.
Speaker 13 (28:44):
Hi David, Hey Dan, Happy Monday, best of the weekend.
I listened to the Dan Patrick Show Takes a Gamble podcast.
Just found out Shay's gonna be joining you in the
Man king not to watch the Cowboys the Eagles. It
sounds like had a few fun that phrases Shae would
(29:05):
say during the game. Over under one or a half
times he says the roommate, over under nine and a
half times he says the f bomb, and over under,
over under one and a half times he says fraudulent.
So I can't wait for that.
Speaker 7 (29:22):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (29:23):
All right, Yeah, we haven't officially locked that in, but
we had some people who wanted to know if we
could watch the game together here in the Man Cave
that Thursday night game with Shae. Yes, Marv, but DP,
they can't be live.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
No, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
I can't trust Shae, especially when it comes to the
Cowboy like he gets apoplectic. It's it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
So I don't, I can't.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
I don't know how we do that, but I'm taking
it under consideration but also under advisement of do I
want to do this?
Speaker 3 (29:59):
But Shay is not.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
He won't be fun to watch that game with because
he will mention the ginger Jason Garrett, you mentioned Jerry,
He's going to mention his roommate. He's not drinking anymore.
I don't know if he's doing anything else, but he's
not drinking anymore. So I got to give that some
real thought. Here Jake and Wisconsin, Hi, Jake, what up?
Speaker 13 (30:25):
DP?
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Hey Buden, Hey man, how you ending?
Speaker 13 (30:29):
We've got best and worst for this weekend?
Speaker 3 (30:32):
My best to the weekend.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
I've been out here in New York for all weeks,
so I offended the Traverse Stakes over in Saratoga Springs.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (30:41):
Man, those ponies.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
Are no joke, man, those things are insane. Sovereignty absolutely dominated.
Really cool weekend getting to see like sixty thousand people
at Saratoga. And then my somber moment of the weekend
was over yesterday at Miller Park. Bob Tssas and the
Milwaukee Brewers did a celebration of life for Bob Yucker
(31:03):
and it was one that I mean, there weren't many
dry eyes in the stadium, that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
It was.
Speaker 4 (31:08):
It was a cool event and cool to see Bob
out there. I know him and Bob were both friends,
so it was cool to see him pay his respect.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Thank you, Jake.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
If you get a chance to go to Saratoga, that
is a wonderful place, certainly if you're going up there
for horse racing. Beautiful in the summer, great in the fall.
I still have Bob Yuker's phone number in my I
don't erase those numbers. I keep them there. I don't
I just can't come. I still have my mom's number
in there, one of my good friends who passed away.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I don't know. I just sometimes you're.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Scrolling through and I've called, or I text. I text
my mom. Occasionally I just say hey, thinking of you.
And I look back on my Bob Yuker conversations that
we would have over text, and it was just it
was a nice reminder of a guy who was you know,
he made a great career. He was funny, self deprecating, inviting.
(32:06):
He loved baseball. I think sometimes it may have gotten
lost with his humor, but he loved baseball and how
those players felt about him and everybody had Yuke on
the back of their jersey, and I'm glad Bob was
out there, and you know, brought in some current former
players and uh it was nice, but uh, Bob Buker
(32:27):
lived a wonderful life. Wonderful life. We'll take a break here.

Forty ninth home run of the year.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
Call is it more home runs than any catzer in
the history of the game.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
At baseball at Scurtesy of the Mariners Radio network forty
nine home runs. They broke the record of the single
season set by Salvator Perez back in twenty twenty one.

(34:02):
a home run yesterday, his forty fifth of the year.
He was being heckled by a Podrey fan who was
in the front row, right by the dugout. And here
is what it sounded like.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
Otani gets into one.
Speaker 20 (34:18):
Held it out there, a right center field kiss, A
good mom forty fifth of the season for Old Tommy,
first one against San Diego. There's a fan sitting right
by the Dodger dugout that's been given OTAMMI heck all
day Eefrey Homer's He says, how you like that?
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Why would you try to heckle Otani? How about just
savor the moment that he's not doing anything against your team.
I don't want to make you mad. He was zero
for ten with two walks before hitting that home run.
And I've said this many many times. There's certain players
when the ball hits the bat, it's different, and he
(35:05):
is one of those guys. We talked to Mark Pryor,
the Dodger pitching coach, and I talked to him about
players that he faced, And there's certain guys when they
hit the ball, it just sounds different and there's just
that pop that you hear from Sho heeo Tani. But
they avoid the series sweep. There more phone calls coming up.
(35:26):
Fritzy has a new poll question.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
Yes, Fritzy, just coming off of what you were just
saying the other day, Actually not the other day. You
just said a little while ago. Got me thinking, I'm
just trying to find what I sent you here. Do
you save the numbers of family and friends who have
passed away on your phone? Yes, it provides me a
sense of comfort and peace. No, they likely won't be
able to respond to my calls and texts.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Well, you got snarky there in death, Okay, but I.
Speaker 7 (35:54):
Did the same thing actually, so I'm not making fun
of it. I'm just throwing it out them.
Speaker 6 (35:57):
Had me curious by making the comment that you save
some of those Yeah, those numbers.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Yeah, I might be lazy and don't want to go
in and erase him, but no, it's just a reminder
sometimes and U and I will text my mom occasionally
and I could just imagine what her response would be. Well,
and then when I got together with my brothers when
we were fishing in Maine, we just everybody's you know,
(36:25):
kind of started in on my mom there impersonation of
my mom. Well, it's always started with, well do you
guys keep people who have passed.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
In your phone?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Marvin, Yes, absolutely, Okay, Pauline, Yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (36:39):
Just have never taken him out. I don't know if
i've I've texted anyone that's actually seems like a pretty
healthy thing to do.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
I text my friend the day he died and I
text his phone and his kids got the text, like
they had his phone and they're like, oh my gosh,
I don't think Dan knows that Tom died. And I
saw them weeks later and they were like, that text
was kind of weird. I said, I just wanted to
(37:07):
say goodbye to him again, and they go, well, we
had his phone and a text comes through and we're going,
we have to tell him that you know, dad died. Yes, Ton,
how do you feel I guess this is similar.
Speaker 6 (37:18):
But if someone still has a social media account or
several accounts, and they've passed away, and you're still sending
them notes, not expecting them obviously to respond.
Speaker 7 (37:25):
But I guess is that kind of the same thing.
Is that stranger.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
They didn't shut down their account, the family member or whatever,
and you're writing to them as you know, as if
they're still alive, you're writing a note to them.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
I haven't gotten anything that came back to me from
somebody's phone number.
Speaker 6 (37:41):
But is it comforting to send a note or leave
a message, I guess, to someone on social media or
a voicemail or a text, knowing that they've passed away.
Speaker 7 (37:49):
Is that, you know, is that a healthy thing?
Speaker 6 (37:51):
Or it needed to find closure in some other way?
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Well, I was telling you that, That's what I did.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
You know, I'm just asking.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
I'm asking the general public, not just so you're asking
everybody in America.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Yeah, if we were doing that as a post, since
we were doing a poll question.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Oh okay, I thought I'd answered that a couple of times.
Speaker 5 (38:10):
Yes, he's he's asking the general public to weigh in
on your behavior, if it's a healthy or not. But
he's doing it by putting it in a roundabout way
through social media and not the exact story.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
You just told about texting your mom and your friend.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Like on Facebook.
Speaker 6 (38:27):
If you study someone I know, I can't believe you
passed away six years ago.
Speaker 7 (38:30):
How's it going. I've been taking care of your dog.
He's fine. Is that a good healthy thing?
Speaker 3 (38:34):
I don't know, you tell me. I don't know what
you're getting on.
Speaker 6 (38:38):
I'm thinking to each his own, but I think maybe
you need to close the chapter and close the door.
And I'm not surey with social media account would still
be open months or years later and you move on.
Speaker 7 (38:47):
I guess it doesn't mean you're you know, you're forgetting
that person?
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Are you saying? What I'm doing is weird and not healthy?
And I need to have.
Speaker 5 (38:59):
You know?
Speaker 2 (38:59):
It's kind of like just like to really give it
ano to shut up. Okay, I'm doing this whatever find
you comfort exactly, But why do you I want you
to stop texting me and you're still alive?
Speaker 7 (39:13):
What happens at four o'clock? What happens at four o'clock
in the morning you actually get a response. I'm doing
good son, Thanks for thinking, man. I love mister too.
Speaker 5 (39:19):
Okay, Yes, I love how Todd's tone has changed throughout
this thing, whereas first it was like.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
A bunch of lunatics.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
You're texting people and aren't even alive, and you're like
a crazy lunatic oututy of that.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
So like, yes, do what needs to be done to
have some closure in your life.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Yes, of course it works for me, Todd.
Speaker 7 (39:36):
If it works here, that's great.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Okay. I don't know what you're projecting here.
Speaker 7 (39:40):
There's no projecting.
Speaker 3 (39:41):
Yes, it feels similar kind of things.
Speaker 7 (39:42):
You know that you wonder about her, like why do I.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
Still have this person's I didn't wonder that. I just
told I gave you my story.
Speaker 7 (39:49):
You just do it. I think about it. You just
you know, you just do the thing.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
All right. Oh, by the way, Ken Griffy Junior. Uh,
he retired in twenty ten. He is getting I think
his last paycheck of three point six million dollars I
think from the Reds. I think he's still in the
payroll with them, so this is deferred salary that he
took three point six million dollars. But I think this
(40:17):
is the final year, so fifteen years he's been getting
that kind of Yes, Todd this is not about that
time and Bernia.
Speaker 6 (40:27):
I could I not think of any of that. He's
got it till like thirty five or two thousand and
thirty eight or something.
Speaker 7 (40:30):
Is that? When?
Speaker 6 (40:31):
Is that over getting a million dollars a year from
the METS and perpetuity?
Speaker 2 (40:35):
Maybe you could have googled that before you brought it up.
Speaker 7 (40:38):
I could, I just thought of it. I just wanted
to put it out there.
Speaker 8 (40:40):
Thank you to Yes, Paul Otani's deferment is the greatest
of all time. He's going to be paid twenty eight
million dollars a year starting like seven years from now,
starting seven years.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
But but how long will he get twenty eight million
dollars a year?
Speaker 8 (40:54):
From two and thirty four, So two thousand and forty
three he'll make twenty eight two year Okay.
Speaker 2 (41:04):
Dang, seatan, do you want to update the poll results?
Did we settle on one?
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I'm not going to do todds about keeping phone numbers
of people who've done well.
Speaker 5 (41:13):
You're not going to do that one, but I am,
of course, because we've got up there. Right now, do
you keep the numbers of people who have passed away
on your phone?
Speaker 2 (41:20):
Right now?
Speaker 5 (41:21):
Seventy four percent of the audience say yes. This is
getting a lot of reaction on social mediakay. We also
have an update to that that we'll get after the break.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
All right, Chris collins Worth will join us. What time.
Speaker 6 (41:33):
I'd like to say for the record, this is not
meant to be insensitive. I was not making fun of you,
and I don't know.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
We're going to break Todd. You're going to break one
hour in the books.
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.

(00:46):
Football Night in America. He will join us coming up
a little bit later on Former college coach now an
analyst for CBS Sports, Rick Neuheisel on what happened this
weekend in college and what he thinks will happen this
upcoming sea. He's an eight seven seven three DP show
operator Tyler sitting by. He'll take your phone calls in
no particular order. Today, I think America, maybe the world
(01:10):
was rooting for Tommy Fleetwood. Part of me he wanted
to see Scotty Scheffler put a little pressure on him.
But we've seen what happened. When there's been pressure on
Tommy Fleetwood, it usually doesn't end well. But he finally
got his first PGA win and it's a big one.
And I was talking to Charles Barkley yesterday afternoon, so
(01:30):
Charles called me about something playing golf, and I said.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Aren't you playing golf?
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Now?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
He goes, I'm watching Tommy Fleetwood. I put a lot
of money on Tommy Fleetwood. He better win it said, okay,
well you might get one right here. It looks like
he's going to hold on. But Fleetwood it was fun
to see because the expectations always been there when you
and that's what's tough. When you have the potential, you
(01:57):
have the expectation. It's not like he comes out of
no People have been waiting for him to come, you know,
to the forefront. And he did that yesterday and did
so in dramatic fashion and got his first win, and
that's a big one. College football is underway. I Aoway
stayed Hawaii UNLV got victories there. NFL preseason is over
(02:17):
and cuts our underway. As we speak, we'll come up
with the pole question. And by the way, when you
know we talk about preseason, it's officially behind us now,
but the real action is ready to begin. And keep
this in mind. Don't take any of it too seriously
because we fall into this trap every preseason. Caleb Williams
(02:39):
was supposed to light up the NFL. Marvin Harrison Junior
was going to be a Jamar Chase like rookie Kyron
Williams with the Rams.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
We thought he was going to be a punt returner.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
He ended up getting fourteen hundred yards and thirty three
million dollar contract in the off season. The point is
really simple with preseason, it's about a value, not prophecy.
And it feels like we want to project now we
got it all figured out.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Man Jackson Darton, he should be starting.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Uh, Dylan Gabriel looks great, Maybe he should be the
starter in Cleveland. We want to be the first to
tell you something, and that's why I always say just
to use caution because The real story starts now on
how good these guys are, how good these teams are.
And I watched a lot of preseason football the last
(03:29):
couple of days, and I still see a tendency with
young quarterbacks. This isn't going to be a referendum on
Shador Sanders, but I was watching him what happens with
quarterbacks when they come from the college ranks into the NFL.
And I'll talk to Rick Neuheisel about this later because
he played the position, coach the position in the NFL.
(03:51):
They these rookie quarterbacks tend to come in and they
take longer to get the ball out of their hands.
They think they have more time because in college, you
do and in college, your guy stays open longer. They're open.
In the NFL, they just don't stay open very long.
You can get away with a lot, and you get
bad habits. I was listening to Brady Quinn and Brady
(04:14):
the former Notre Dame quarterback, and I was listening to
him this morning driving in and he talked about how quarterbacks,
young quarterbacks already rule out one side of the field
when they go back to pass or they're in shotgun,
they will turn their hips, so their hips are pointing
towards the offensive line. So now you've taken away the
(04:34):
left side of the field and you're also holding onto
the ball. And this is what we saw this with
shad Or Sanders at Colorado. Yes, everybody talked about how
bad the offensive line was, but now that's not the
point here in the NFL. The point is you hold
onto the ball too long. He holds onto the ball
longer than any quarterback in preseason. Because you're waiting to
(04:56):
make a play, you have to take your losses, have
to get rid of the football, and you get sacked
five times, got pulled from the game. Although I didn't
understand that unless and my source with the Browns said
this to me, What if Kevin Stefanski wanted to see
how Shador Sanders would react to getting benched in the
(05:17):
final two minutes and Shador tried to talk his way
back into the lineup.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Once again, this was being speculated to me by a source,
and I said, okay, well, he did want to get
back in. He didn't play well, but I don't know
what kind of mind games you're playing. He just holds
onto the ball too long. Dylan Gabriel, you know, he
gets the ball out in rhythm. And when you're playing
(05:45):
at Oregon and you know, quicker quicker, quicker, quicker, and
you saw that. You know, Caleb Williams got the run
of the place at USC with Lincoln Riley trying to
make a play hold on. You can't do that in
the It's so quick and you must react. And he
watching Shador, he had a guy his first read a
(06:08):
couple of times didn't throw. Once you go from you know,
your first to your second, and if you get to
a third, chances are you're going to be on your back.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
And that's what I saw.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
That's what I see with these young quarterbacks and they
have to get rid of these bad habits. But when
you go back to pass, you must stay with you know,
your body facing the line of scrimmage because now the
defense doesn't know if you're going to the left or
the right. But they go back to pass and then
they've got their hips pointed towards the offensive line. Well,
(06:40):
now you're not looking at the left side of the field.
And I saw that a couple of times. But Dylan
Gabriel has looked better than I think people are going
to give him credit for and I think Jackson Dark
has played really well. But I'm not surprised with Jackson Dark.
I thought he midway through the season. I said, I'm
getting a first round grade on this guy. And he's
(07:02):
played well, but I don't think he's ready to play
right now. Chador's not ready to play, but he's probably
still gonna make the roster. It's we get caught up
in oh my gosh, I've got this figured out, and
so many times we don't. And that showed once again
this weekend, where you're watching somebody and you're saying, is
that guy good? He was good last week, not this week? Well,
(07:24):
are you playing against the first team defense? Are you
playing with the starters? There's a lot that goes into it,
and that's where I think we all want to go.
I got that situation figured out Seeton. What's pole question today?
We got a couple here from the to double D,
which is always a huge, huge tree on a Monday morning.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
We could start with one real quick which is a
bigger problem. Slow play in golf, slow play in baseball.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Patrick, can't I just hit the freaking ball, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Just hit it, dude, uh, slow play. And I think
we've all been around somebody who plays very, very slow.
But you're a professional, like at some point you would think, hey,
I'm pretty locked in.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Not let me be back away, let me get over it,
let me stand over it, let me let me let
me okay, I'm going to hit it. Oh, PAULI goes,
I thought, my my TV froze. I'm watching Patrick cantlay
and I go, oh, damn, my TV FROs It didn't
Patrick can't lay. Pull the trigger, nothing good happens. I
(08:42):
don't think when you wait that long when you're hitting
a golf shot, get up there, set up quick, remember Sergio. Oh,
and you've got to eventually get into a quicker rhythm.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
You've done this millions of times.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
It's not like us when we get out there, we're like, damn,
I have no idea where this is going. They have
a general idea where it's going. Pull the trigger? What else?
What else do you have? Seaton?
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Let me see here running through t o doves. Were
you rooting for Tommy Fleetwood yesterday?
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yes, of course, yeah, yeah, I was. Yeah, And this
is what There are a lot of things that I
really like about him, starting with his blue eyes. But
you know, and he's got great hair too. But also
when he's lost, he's talked to the media, he's met
with the media, and I appreciate that. You know, Rory
(09:40):
is kind of scampered away and Colin Morikawwa. And I
think you owe it to the fans. Maybe not the media.
Maybe you don't like the media, but the fans are
the ones who want to understand what happened. They're rooting
for you. I think you owe it to the media
or the fans. The media, we're the conduit here, and
the are the ones who buy Callaway clubs or BMW
(10:04):
cars or come out and see you, because without them
then you don't get those endorsements. And Tommy Fleetwood stands
up and says exactly how he feels what happened, and
I think that is admirable. I've mentioned this before. Bill Buckner,
the ball goes through his legs and he answered everybody's
(10:25):
question after that World Series loss, one of the worst
moments in baseball history, and he answered every single question.
Mitch Williams gave up the home run to Joe Carter.
Toronto won the World Series Mitch Williams answered everybody's question
after that game, after that loss. These are tough situations,
(10:45):
but you get paid to be in tough situations, and
I think how you respond sometimes says a lot about you.
And I was rooting for Tommy because he needed this.
It's almost like Rory at a guy he had played poorly,
and all of a sudden he's just tripping over himself heading,
you know, down the stretch in the final couple of holes,
(11:08):
and it was like, just let him have this because
he can't take, you know, more of this pain, misery.
And that's how I felt with Tommy Fleetwood. Certain times,
I'm rooting for a situation because it's right for that situation,
and Tommy Fleetwood couldn't win, anything came close a couple
of times did win, and that's what I loved it,
(11:29):
you know, I said to Fritzi, although Fritzie almost gave
him the jinks the DP show jinks, he goes, what
do you think I'm going to reach out? And now
the tournament's not over yet. So the fourteenth hole, I
get a text from Fritzie and Fritzy says, hey, you
want me to reach out to Tommy Fleetwood, and all
of a sudden, I go home now and then Paul
goes Jinks and I was pulling for him.
Speaker 6 (11:51):
I didn't want to be a Jigs, but to discuss
the inviting him on the show five holes before it's
over was a little prevage.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Well, okay, but we didn't need to decide then because
nobody's going to talk. Hey, he's going to the fifteenth. Hey,
Todd Fritz wants to know if you can be on
the dance. Don't do that.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
I won't talk to him before that, I don't think.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
So let's put the bugget is here, just to let
him know that we're interested before everything's done.
Speaker 7 (12:12):
If you happen to win, this is one of the
guest opportunities.
Speaker 8 (12:14):
Yes, Paul Tommy Fleetwood has been on the PGA Tour
for ten, actually eleven years. He made twenty four million
dollars in his first ten years. Yesterday made ten million dollars.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (12:28):
Stand of the Day, stant of a day, Start out
of the day, scant.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
Out of a day.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
This is the Stand of the Day.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Brought to you by Canadian America, the official trading cards
of the Dan Patrick Show. And I want to have
him on. I want to ask him about his the
role that his wife has played, because when you go
home after you lose, there's no cameras, nobody's you know,
following you, that it's lonely, and then you really got
(12:59):
to sit there and probably give your true feelings. And
the role that his wife played. I'd love for him
to talk about that, because that's usually where you got
to find a friend. You got to have somebody that
you can kind of just let it out. But good
(13:20):
for him. All right, what other poll questions do we
have today? Let's see, we've got many more after the break.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
Oh wait, they're teasable. That's how great they are. Dan,
it came out on Monday. We're ready to play every
day as the super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Let's go. All right, we'll get to your phone calls
past and worst of the weekend. Collinsworth will have the
Thursday night game that will be the Eagles and the Cowboys.
Still no movement there on Micah Parsons. Still no movement
on Trey Hendrickson, and no movement on Terry McLaurin.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
It's gonna be a big week. Feels like a big week.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
And the difference with when you had the contract for
Dak Prescott that he agreed to on the day of
their first game last season. That's different because he was
going to play Micah Parsons. I just don't know if
you can go Sunday more or Thursday morning and go hey,
next Thursday and go hey, we agree to a deal,
(14:21):
now go out and play against the Eagles. I think
it's a different scenario there. And I always worry about
these guys who get in late and then all of
a sudden they want to prove if you get a
deal or you didn't get a deal, you want to
go out there and you play a little extra and
that's when you get hurt. But we'll take a break
phone calls. Welcome eight seven to seven, three DP show.
(14:42):
We'll talk about college football underway, Iowa State and k
State in Dublin, Hawaii against Stanford. I told you that
was my favorite game of the weekend and it turned
out to be a great finish there. And the preseason
is over. Cuts underway. If anybody have knows gets cut,
we'll bring that to your attention as well. We're back
(15:04):
after this from The Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 10 (15:15):
Hey, Steve Covino and I'm Rich David and together We're
Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 11 (15:21):
You could catch us weekdays from five to seven pm
Eastern two to four Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and
of course the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 10 (15:28):
Why should you listen to Covino and Rich.
Speaker 11 (15:29):
We talk about everything life, sports, relationships, what's going on
in the world.
Speaker 10 (15:34):
We have a lot of fun talking about the stories
behind the stories in the world of sports and pop culture,
stories that well other shows don't seem to have the
time to discuss.
Speaker 11 (15:42):
And the fact that we've been friends for the last
twenty years and still work together.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
I mean that says something, right.
Speaker 10 (15:47):
So check us out. We like to get you involved too,
take your phone calls, chop it up.
Speaker 11 (15:52):
As they say, I'd say, the most interactive show on
Fox Sports Radio, maybe the most interactive show on planetar.
Speaker 10 (15:57):
Be sure to check out Covino and Rich live on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app from five to
seven pm Eastern, two to four Pacific.
Speaker 11 (16:04):
And if you miss any of the live show, just
search Covin on Rich wherever you get your podcasts, and
of course on social media that's Cavino and Rich.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
It's some Monday best and worst of the weekend, which
you saw that you liked, you didn't like. DraftKings just
sent me the national title odds. Texas is your favorite,
followed by the Ohio State, Penn State, Georgia, Clemson, Alabama,
and Notre Dame. Now they have twelve teen playoff. If
they go to fourteen or sixteen, Notre Dame will never
(16:34):
join a conference. There's no need to join a conference.
All they have to do is go ten and two
and they're a brand and they'll make the playoffs. Guarantee
you can control most of your schedule. They're taking out Michigan,
taking out USC eventually, and Notre Dame will be penciled in.
And if you happen to go to twenty four or
(16:56):
twenty eight, then of course Notre Dame is going to
be in there. But I think got to be careful
though with the twenty four to twenty eight. I know
it brings more teams in, but Rhys Davis was pretty
adamant about this on the Mothership this past weekend. You
just got to be careful college football is great. I
(17:18):
just don't want it to be college basketball. When's the
last time you really cared about a regular season game
in college basketball? It's really really rare. And we've expanded
the tournament. We'll continue to expand the tournament. There's money
to be made. There's more money to be made in
a college football playoff. I just hope that I almost
(17:39):
use the word integrity, my bet, I know strike that
from my vocabulary when it comes to college football, I
get it. I just I hope that they can prevent themselves.
Somebody needs to help them help themselves. And I'm here.
(18:00):
I don't go stay at twelve. I'm fine with that.
Make it something that is worthwhile. Not everybody gets to
do this. Give me some tension, automatic qualifiers. I don't
want that either. I do want strength to schedule. I
said before Indiana didn't deserve to be in there, and
(18:20):
you know these schools are giving a first round by too.
I just I don't think that that's fair. I think
you've got to somehow if you can create a level
playing field. But you can't until everybody is playing like
the NFL, everybody is going to have a similar schedule.
You're going to play the same teams, or this year
(18:41):
we play this division and next year we play that division.
That's as close as you're going to get to a
level playing field. And until we get there, I just
think you can open up with cupcakes. Notre Dame doesn't.
I don't know how tough their schedule is this year
where it ranks. But if you lose two games, still
going to make the play, depending on who you lose to.
(19:03):
I mean, you know, you lose to Northern Illinois, you
know that's gonna sting. That'll hurt you for a little while.
But if you lose to Clemson, that's different. But you know,
it feels like you got seven eight teams that can
win the national championship at least right now. All right,
Paully said that maybe we're mispronouncing Hawaii because I was
(19:26):
watching the game, got to see a lot of Andrew
Luck just a little too much for the general manager
of the Stanford football team. You know, they have that
little camera up there and then all of a sudden, they.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Would you would have thought he was coaching.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I think they showed him more than they did Frank Reich,
because Frank Reich is the head coach, and it felt
like Andrew Luck just about every other play, let's go
to Andrew Luck, and he wasn't doing anything other than watching,
and it felt like he was hovering over that that team.
He is the he's not the coach, and I think
(20:02):
that was what was kind of interesting to see. But
they ended up losing in a dramatic fashion, a game
they should not have lost. But the Bows come up
with a win. All right, let's.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Play the game, Todd. How do you pronounce Hawaii?
Speaker 7 (20:18):
Hawaii?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
See if I know what's wrong.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
But that's how I say, Seaton Hawaii, all right, Marvin Hawaii. Okay,
I'm going to go with Hawaii.
Speaker 5 (20:30):
Yes, yes, yes, I just want to go on the
record and say, no one in this room says Hawaii.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
No one here says Hawaii. Well, no one does.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
I do? Now don't, Yes, I do? And I came in.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
I said, hey, you won't even you won't even pronounce
it that way for the rest of the day.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I No one here says Hawaii. I promise, because I
was watching that game. Hawaii. Yes, Pauli.
Speaker 8 (20:53):
However, Hawaii is incorrect. The W does not exist. I
e haai. It's three syllables huh V E like vi.
The W is pronounced V like victory, and the last
syllable the okina the little flying comma there.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
That is also called a glottal stop. So it's a
I E. So you do a purposeful pause on the
E part. Haaii, Okay, have all right?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Who's in? I'm sure let's try it. It's like Dirk Novitski,
not Dirk Nowitzki. Yes see.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
I once took a flight from Haaii to Budapest and
it was lovely.
Speaker 8 (21:42):
I think we should try to be have E friendly.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
It's to do.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
We had to lay over in bars Alona, though Bartholona.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
My son corrected me one time when I said how
is Barcelona and he goes, it's Bartholona. I said, that's
the last time I'm paying for a vacation that your
son wants.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Me.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Laughed at me too, because I was describing a neighborhood
in Paris and he was like.
Speaker 12 (22:06):
It's els move. He laughed at me and corrected, me, No,
that's not it's not that. It's okay dude, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 8 (22:18):
The announcers, though on Saturday Night, clearly have been told
to stress the pronunciation correctly, because like, oh, look at that.
The running game is really coming along. There's a lot
of vite.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Okay, well that's what I learned today. We're only thirty
minutes into the show. Pretty quote, man set seet no way,
huh h Aiden in Utah. Oh remember when we last
left Aiden, he was going to get engaged this weekend
and Aiden in Utah, here we go.
Speaker 13 (22:49):
Okay, she said, yes, alright, all.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Right, walk me through it.
Speaker 14 (23:00):
H Okay.
Speaker 15 (23:02):
So it's not quite JFK at Baggy's.
Speaker 14 (23:05):
Time, but we had so I, like I said, told
her it was a family dinner, so I said she
was expecting she made a bunch of semin roles.
Speaker 15 (23:13):
I told her she didn't need.
Speaker 16 (23:14):
To, but she did anyways, and then you know, we'll
get up there. Nobody's there. She's like, why isn't anybody here? Like, well,
maybe they're just around this corner over here.
Speaker 15 (23:25):
Let's take a walk to go.
Speaker 14 (23:27):
There and go down the little trail the river and
then walk around the corner and then to marry me.
Sign and flowers and candle lights hanging from the trees.
I had the.
Speaker 15 (23:39):
Photographer in the way it was. It was about as
perfect as I could have made.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
It any issues, none of it.
Speaker 15 (23:48):
Well, when we first got out of the truck, there
was a hiker saying there's a rattlesnake on the trail,
and she really I was pretty much dragging her down
that trail because she does not like snakes at all.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
That sounds like something on NBC's Dateline. Why did he
go down the trail?
Speaker 7 (24:12):
The rattle among us when dateline continued.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Thank you Todd Well, Aiden, congratulations, thank you.
Speaker 15 (24:20):
Thank you for your help.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (24:23):
Now, I just made you to officiate the wedding.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
No no, no no no. If it's in Milford, Connecticut,
you got a shot. But other than that, no, because
I love love, but I don't officiate love. But thank you, Aiden,
thank you for the update there. Pat and South Korea.
I think maybe the first caller from South Korea.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Hey, oh hey Dan, Yeah, paddle he Korea.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
We get a lot of North Korea, believe it or not.
Kim Jung Man. He is crazy. He loves us. So Pat,
what can I do for you in South Koreare you
that's what you got?
Speaker 17 (25:08):
Hello?
Speaker 9 (25:08):
Dan?
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Yes? Ya okay, I was worried about your Pat.
Speaker 18 (25:11):
Wow, wow, man, I got a little worried. He one, Hey,
you guys are killing me with the Hawaii e stuff
out here. I mean, we work in Hawaii all the time,
and PAULI, you're killing me. But the real call is
I'm calling for my son. Sean is turning eleven tomorrow
and we're here in South Korea, and we here we
(25:32):
listen every morning to the podcast. So tomorrow will be
August twenty sixth for him, which will be a birthday.
So if I hear it, if you got to sing
it tonight, he will definitely hear it.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
In the morning.
Speaker 13 (25:42):
And I think that'll be a great gift from the team.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
What time is it there, it's a ten thirty at night?
Speaker 18 (25:49):
Yeah, yeah, ten third at night and doing a little
bit of multitasking. I got a couple meetings, but I
got them on hold as I'm doing that, trying to
be that good dad.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
All right, here we go, and you're so his name
is Sean, Sean alrighty. I thank you guys, Thank you, Pat,
thank you all right. Jeff in Columbus, Good morning, Jeff.
(26:18):
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Hey, good morning, Dan.
Speaker 17 (26:21):
I just wanted to touch on the uh Patrick can't
lay uh slow.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Motion start to his hitting.
Speaker 17 (26:28):
I'm one of the I run camera for networks and
I do a lot of golf shows and there's nothing
worse than being out there on a.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Tower at four or five hours a day.
Speaker 17 (26:37):
And then Patrick Cantley comes up and you're about to
fall asleep in your viewfinder waiting for him to hit
that ball, and you get your face in the view finder.
You try to block all the light out and nobody
can hear you, and you're just yelling, hit the ball.
Who are the worst offenders? Jeff uh Can'tley's one. Sergio
used to be, Brian Harmon used to be. He sped
(26:57):
it up a little bit. On the other end of that,
you gotta be careful if Dustin Johnson's coming up. You know,
if you're doing a live show, that guy, he wastes
no time in hitting and he will hit it fast,
even while the other ball that was hit first might
be rolling on the green and you can't come off
that shot. And you look out there and there's Dustin
Johnson in his back swing already.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Lud Big Oberg is quick. Oberg is quick. Oberg is quick.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
We appreciate the quick ones.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
We really do.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
When you're ready to get.
Speaker 17 (27:26):
Out of there. You don't want to see Patrick Cantley
coming up.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Thank you, Jem, thank you for that day. Uh Buddha
in San Francisco, Hi Buddha, what a VP.
Speaker 19 (27:38):
Happy Monday, boys, keep your head up, Fritzy. Best of
the weekend, Dan, I found myself explaining to a lady
Buddha in San Francisco yesterday, who fair way Jesus is?
And I was like, yeah, you know, baby, like, you know,
look at him. You know he had back when he
came on to the tour. He had longer hair and
(27:58):
it was really long and straight, like Jesus out there
playing golf. And I was thin, you know what, never mind,
I'm just happy for him, stoke for him. Good job.
Awesome to see that. Best of the weekend my Dodgers
in albeit not in their heaven white Unis hitting four
home runs into heaven yesterday and spank in San Diego.
(28:19):
Always nice to see that and taking over that first
place in that seesawt battle. And Dan I had a
question for you, do you guys are you guys doing
the calendar this year?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Yes, we are.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
In fact, we're shooting the final two months of the
calendar this week. The French Kid is coming in and yeah,
the calendar is going to be coming out in time
for the holidays.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
Thank you for the phone call. David in Ohio.
Speaker 13 (28:44):
Hi David, Hey Dan, Happy Monday, best of the weekend.
I listened to the Dan Patrick Show Takes a Gamble podcast.
Just found out Shay's gonna be joining you in the
Man king not to watch the Cowboys the Eagles. It
sounds like had a few fun that phrases Shae would
(29:05):
say during the game. Over under one or a half
times he says the roommate, over under nine and a
half times he says the f bomb, and over under,
over under one and a half times he says fraudulent.
So I can't wait for that.
Speaker 7 (29:22):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (29:23):
All right, Yeah, we haven't officially locked that in, but
we had some people who wanted to know if we
could watch the game together here in the Man Cave
that Thursday night game with Shae. Yes, Marv, but DP,
they can't be live.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
No, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
I can't trust Shae, especially when it comes to the
Cowboy like he gets apoplectic. It's it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
So I don't, I can't.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
I don't know how we do that, but I'm taking
it under consideration but also under advisement of do I
want to do this?
Speaker 3 (29:59):
But Shay is not.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
He won't be fun to watch that game with because
he will mention the ginger Jason Garrett, you mentioned Jerry,
He's going to mention his roommate. He's not drinking anymore.
I don't know if he's doing anything else, but he's
not drinking anymore. So I got to give that some
real thought. Here Jake and Wisconsin, Hi, Jake, what up?
Speaker 13 (30:25):
DP?
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Hey Buden, Hey man, how you ending?
Speaker 13 (30:29):
We've got best and worst for this weekend?
Speaker 3 (30:32):
My best to the weekend.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
I've been out here in New York for all weeks,
so I offended the Traverse Stakes over in Saratoga Springs.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (30:41):
Man, those ponies.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
Are no joke, man, those things are insane. Sovereignty absolutely dominated.
Really cool weekend getting to see like sixty thousand people
at Saratoga. And then my somber moment of the weekend
was over yesterday at Miller Park. Bob Tssas and the
Milwaukee Brewers did a celebration of life for Bob Yucker
(31:03):
and it was one that I mean, there weren't many
dry eyes in the stadium, that's for sure.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
It was.
Speaker 4 (31:08):
It was a cool event and cool to see Bob
out there. I know him and Bob were both friends,
so it was cool to see him pay his respect.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Thank you, Jake.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
If you get a chance to go to Saratoga, that
is a wonderful place, certainly if you're going up there
for horse racing. Beautiful in the summer, great in the fall.
I still have Bob Yuker's phone number in my I
don't erase those numbers. I keep them there. I don't
I just can't come. I still have my mom's number
in there, one of my good friends who passed away.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I don't know. I just sometimes you're.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Scrolling through and I've called, or I text. I text
my mom. Occasionally I just say hey, thinking of you.
And I look back on my Bob Yuker conversations that
we would have over text, and it was just it
was a nice reminder of a guy who was you know,
he made a great career. He was funny, self deprecating, inviting.
(32:06):
He loved baseball. I think sometimes it may have gotten
lost with his humor, but he loved baseball and how
those players felt about him and everybody had Yuke on
the back of their jersey, and I'm glad Bob was
out there, and you know, brought in some current former
players and uh it was nice, but uh, Bob Buker
(32:27):
lived a wonderful life. Wonderful life. We'll take a break here.

Now here's Cal Rowley, fresh from setting the major league record.
Y I sway you to drive deep the left field?
More history, goodbye baseball cow rally with his historic.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Forty ninth home run of the year.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
Call is it more home runs than any catzer in
the history of the game.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
At baseball at Scurtesy of the Mariners Radio network forty
nine home runs. They broke the record of the single
season set by Salvator Perez back in twenty twenty one.
I don't know what I find more surprising that no
catchers hit fifty home runs or that Perez was the
(33:37):
all time leader with forty eight home runs set in
twenty twenty one. That is your Play of the Day.

(34:02):
a home run yesterday, his forty fifth of the year.
He was being heckled by a Podrey fan who was
in the front row, right by the dugout. And here
is what it sounded like.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
Otani gets into one.
Speaker 20 (34:18):
Held it out there, a right center field kiss, A
good mom forty fifth of the season for Old Tommy,
first one against San Diego. There's a fan sitting right
by the Dodger dugout that's been given OTAMMI heck all
day Eefrey Homer's He says, how you like that?
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Why would you try to heckle Otani? How about just
savor the moment that he's not doing anything against your team.
I don't want to make you mad. He was zero
for ten with two walks before hitting that home run.
And I've said this many many times. There's certain players
when the ball hits the bat, it's different, and he
(35:05):
is one of those guys. We talked to Mark Pryor,
the Dodger pitching coach, and I talked to him about
players that he faced, And there's certain guys when they
hit the ball, it just sounds different and there's just
that pop that you hear from Sho heeo Tani. But
they avoid the series sweep. There more phone calls coming up.
(35:26):
Fritzy has a new poll question.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
Yes, Fritzy, just coming off of what you were just
saying the other day, Actually not the other day. You
just said a little while ago. Got me thinking, I'm
just trying to find what I sent you here. Do
you save the numbers of family and friends who have
passed away on your phone? Yes, it provides me a
sense of comfort and peace. No, they likely won't be
able to respond to my calls and texts.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
Well, you got snarky there in death, Okay, but I.
Speaker 7 (35:54):
Did the same thing actually, so I'm not making fun
of it. I'm just throwing it out them.
Speaker 6 (35:57):
Had me curious by making the comment that you save
some of those Yeah, those numbers.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Yeah, I might be lazy and don't want to go
in and erase him, but no, it's just a reminder
sometimes and U and I will text my mom occasionally
and I could just imagine what her response would be. Well,
and then when I got together with my brothers when
we were fishing in Maine, we just everybody's you know,
(36:25):
kind of started in on my mom there impersonation of
my mom. Well, it's always started with, well do you
guys keep people who have passed.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
In your phone?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
Marvin, Yes, absolutely, Okay, Pauline, Yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (36:39):
Just have never taken him out. I don't know if
i've I've texted anyone that's actually seems like a pretty
healthy thing to do.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
I text my friend the day he died and I
text his phone and his kids got the text, like
they had his phone and they're like, oh my gosh,
I don't think Dan knows that Tom died. And I
saw them weeks later and they were like, that text
was kind of weird. I said, I just wanted to
(37:07):
say goodbye to him again, and they go, well, we
had his phone and a text comes through and we're going,
we have to tell him that you know, dad died. Yes, Ton,
how do you feel I guess this is similar.
Speaker 6 (37:18):
But if someone still has a social media account or
several accounts, and they've passed away, and you're still sending
them notes, not expecting them obviously to respond.
Speaker 7 (37:25):
But I guess is that kind of the same thing.
Is that stranger.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
They didn't shut down their account, the family member or whatever,
and you're writing to them as you know, as if
they're still alive, you're writing a note to them.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
I haven't gotten anything that came back to me from
somebody's phone number.
Speaker 6 (37:41):
But is it comforting to send a note or leave
a message, I guess, to someone on social media or
a voicemail or a text, knowing that they've passed away.
Speaker 7 (37:49):
Is that, you know, is that a healthy thing?
Speaker 6 (37:51):
Or it needed to find closure in some other way?
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Well, I was telling you that, That's what I did.
Speaker 3 (37:57):
You know, I'm just asking.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
I'm asking the general public, not just so you're asking
everybody in America.
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Yeah, if we were doing that as a post, since
we were doing a poll question.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Oh okay, I thought I'd answered that a couple of times.
Speaker 5 (38:10):
Yes, he's he's asking the general public to weigh in
on your behavior, if it's a healthy or not. But
he's doing it by putting it in a roundabout way
through social media and not the exact story.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
You just told about texting your mom and your friend.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Like on Facebook.
Speaker 6 (38:27):
If you study someone I know, I can't believe you
passed away six years ago.
Speaker 7 (38:30):
How's it going. I've been taking care of your dog.
He's fine. Is that a good healthy thing?
Speaker 3 (38:34):
I don't know, you tell me. I don't know what
you're getting on.
Speaker 6 (38:38):
I'm thinking to each his own, but I think maybe
you need to close the chapter and close the door.
And I'm not surey with social media account would still
be open months or years later and you move on.
Speaker 7 (38:47):
I guess it doesn't mean you're you know, you're forgetting
that person?
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Are you saying? What I'm doing is weird and not healthy?
And I need to have.
Speaker 5 (38:59):
You know?
Speaker 2 (38:59):
It's kind of like just like to really give it
ano to shut up. Okay, I'm doing this whatever find
you comfort exactly, But why do you I want you
to stop texting me and you're still alive?
Speaker 7 (39:13):
What happens at four o'clock? What happens at four o'clock
in the morning you actually get a response. I'm doing
good son, Thanks for thinking, man. I love mister too.
Speaker 5 (39:19):
Okay, Yes, I love how Todd's tone has changed throughout
this thing, whereas first it was like.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
A bunch of lunatics.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
You're texting people and aren't even alive, and you're like
a crazy lunatic oututy of that.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
So like, yes, do what needs to be done to
have some closure in your life.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Yes, of course it works for me, Todd.
Speaker 7 (39:36):
If it works here, that's great.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Okay. I don't know what you're projecting here.
Speaker 7 (39:40):
There's no projecting.
Speaker 3 (39:41):
Yes, it feels similar kind of things.
Speaker 7 (39:42):
You know that you wonder about her, like why do I.
Speaker 2 (39:44):
Still have this person's I didn't wonder that. I just
told I gave you my story.
Speaker 7 (39:49):
You just do it. I think about it. You just
you know, you just do the thing.
Speaker 2 (39:54):
All right. Oh, by the way, Ken Griffy Junior. Uh,
he retired in twenty ten. He is getting I think
his last paycheck of three point six million dollars I
think from the Reds. I think he's still in the
payroll with them, so this is deferred salary that he
took three point six million dollars. But I think this
(40:17):
is the final year, so fifteen years he's been getting
that kind of Yes, Todd this is not about that
time and Bernia.
Speaker 6 (40:27):
I could I not think of any of that. He's
got it till like thirty five or two thousand and
thirty eight or something.
Speaker 7 (40:30):
Is that? When?
Speaker 6 (40:31):
Is that over getting a million dollars a year from
the METS and perpetuity?
Speaker 2 (40:35):
Maybe you could have googled that before you brought it up.
Speaker 7 (40:38):
I could, I just thought of it. I just wanted
to put it out there.
Speaker 8 (40:40):
Thank you to Yes, Paul Otani's deferment is the greatest
of all time. He's going to be paid twenty eight
million dollars a year starting like seven years from now,
starting seven years.
Speaker 2 (40:52):
But but how long will he get twenty eight million
dollars a year?
Speaker 8 (40:54):
From two and thirty four, So two thousand and forty
three he'll make twenty eight two year Okay.
Speaker 2 (41:04):
Dang, seatan, do you want to update the poll results?
Did we settle on one?
Speaker 3 (41:09):
I'm not going to do todds about keeping phone numbers
of people who've done well.
Speaker 5 (41:13):
You're not going to do that one, but I am,
of course, because we've got up there. Right now, do
you keep the numbers of people who have passed away
on your phone?
Speaker 2 (41:20):
Right now?
Speaker 5 (41:21):
Seventy four percent of the audience say yes. This is
getting a lot of reaction on social mediakay. We also
have an update to that that we'll get after the break.
Speaker 3 (41:30):
All right, Chris collins Worth will join us. What time.
Speaker 6 (41:33):
I'd like to say for the record, this is not
meant to be insensitive. I was not making fun of you,
and I don't know.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
We're going to break Todd. You're going to break one
hour in the books.
