(00:47):
sitting by. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock. Thank

to our radio affiliates numbering over four hundred cities that

Sounds like US stream the paper. September fourth, only on Peacock.
(01:07):
Seaton Recap Hour one, whole question results and what are
we going with an hour or two?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
This is a controversial grouping of pull questions, Do you
keep the numbers of people who have passed away on
your phone?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Right now?
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Seventy six percent of the audience say yes. And then
the addition or addendum to that was, is texting the
number of someone who has died to say hello a
healthy thing to do?
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Okay? Right now?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Seventy seven percent of the audience say no, Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
So I'm I'm in the majority on the first one,
in the minority of the second one. So yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
I I don't like when when somebody I know dies,
I don't even think of, oh, I should take their
number out of my phone. I just it isn't even
part of the thought process. Maybe occasionally you'll be looking
for someone's phone number and that'll pop up or something,
but I don't actively seek to remove it. But I
also don't think let me keep it on here, though,
because it's fun. Okay, But imagine this happening, because it did.
(02:17):
I text somebody who had passed away and his son
had the phone, and his son text me back. But
I don't know that his son has the phone. I'm
just saying, hey, Tom, thinking of you and whatever, get
a message back, thanks, and then I find out later
(02:40):
that he wasn't sure what to say back to me
because he didn't want me to think like Tom's texting
me from wherever, and so it was kind of awkward
where you actually get a text message from somebody who's
passed away their phone and it just said thanks.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Could have been an emoji. I would have ciate a
good emoji from somebody who's passed away. Stat of the
day brought to you boy Pennini America, the official trading
cards of this program. So Big Weekend College Football next weekend,
NFL preseason is over and the cuts will be happening.
They took place over the weekend as well. We'll talk
to Chris Collinsworth as he gets ready for the Eagles
(03:20):
and the Cowboys. Is he preparing for MICHAEH. Parsons to
be preparing for the Eagles. So we'll talk to Chris.
Coming up, what's the poll question? We're going with an
hour two Seaton.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Well, the commentary surrounding this one is great. Many people
have suggested that Todd has surpassed his limit of words
for Monday, and that maybe Todd should be shut down.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
You should be on a word count sometimes think you
should be. Was that a lot of worth? Well, you
took forever to really tell me what you really felt
in that. It was kind of weird that I text
my mom or text you know a couple people we're
friends who passed away.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
I think I was working it out in my head
as I was talking aloud. That was part of the problem.
I didn't really kind of put it together and then
present it as an argument. I was just kind of
going with the flow.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Why did you prepare.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Like a statement out at least about my thoughts on
a given topic.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Have you ever heard of the phrase putting your foot
in your mouth?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah? That was an example of it time.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Yeah, I probably put both feet in my mouth. Amazing
how you could even understand any of the words with who?
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Probably unclear? I ask you, I think three times, I
don't know what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Sometimes I'm not sure what, but I do think a
psychologist or psychiagist might say you need to close the
chapter on your friend or family member and it's okay,
you're not like deleting them from your life and your memories, and.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
You okay, we're not doing this. We're not doing this.
I I told you what I do like we are.
I don't want you. I don't care what your opinion is, Dodd,
you don't know I do not.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
No.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Oh that that's insensitive, But not you criticizing me for
being a strange guy. Yes see, we're now.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Getting like posts from people on social media commenting on this, saying,
like this person said, I have several voicemails from my
dad semi colon miss your pop. So now that guy's
reaching out to his dad through our Twitter, posting his
toes that just in case Dad is scrolling the timeline,
you never know.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You never know what, Todd.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I guess it's possible that some people you see it
on daylight, like some people fake their death and maybe
they're actually alive. And in your case, the Sun responded, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no. Maybe he's a chance that some of
these people are alive.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
My mom is dead.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
But in some cases someone could respond to I've been
Tahiti hiding from everyone, and I couldn't take it anymore.
I couldn't take my husband forever.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Damn.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
This is between us. I'm still alive, but don't share
this with any one.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Other people are commenting about how you do realize that
phone numbers are reassigned to new people who are now
getting your text messages and probably just ignoring them. That's okay,
not not you specifically, just in general people who do
those kinds of things.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
All right.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Uh, Tom and Ohio, Hi Tom, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Dan? How are you?
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (06:25):
I'm great, first time, long time, six foot one, ninety
Hey Dan, I just want to chime in. I did
the same thing. I've got friends and family members and
did it past and I keep their number in my
phone because it's for me. It's a way of remembering
them and a good or bad emotion or good or
bad memory. It's it's just a way of memorializing and
(06:46):
I love it. So you're not doing anything wrong in
my in my book.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Well, thank you, Tom, I appreciate that. I feel better.
Now take that, Todd, Oh.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
You care about Tom and Ohio's opinion. I'm working for
twenty three years, he shut me down.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Morgan in Maryland, Good morning, Morgan, Good morning VP.
Speaker 7 (07:08):
So I got Bess and work's the weekend. Best of
the weekend. I'm actually a little further north than you
guys in Barry, New Hampshire, at my friend's lake house
for good about five days with the kids, just like
paddle boarding and on the boat and morning coffee is
on the dock. It's pretty sweet and I like it
up here.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Awesome worst weekend.
Speaker 7 (07:29):
It's kind of tied to that. My son has, you know,
discovered that when he's outside he can kind of pee wherever.
But he's when I say wherever, he's not going to
like a bush or a tree. So yesterday morning he
drops trow off of the dock and I'm saying, like,
he drops trow and holds his shirt up. He's not
holding anything. He just let it rain. And there must
(07:49):
have been like a bass fishing tournament going on because
we we're on like a no wake zone, and there
must have been ten fifteen boats that just came out
slowly going by and seeing my son just letting it
rain off the doc and I'm just standing there with
my coffee, like, hello, good morning.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
How old is he?
Speaker 8 (08:05):
Fo?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Oh? Okay? Four? I thought if you're going to say's twelve,
then maybe we have an issue there. But thank you Morgan.
Enjoy the scenery there. Matt in South Bend, Hi, Matt,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (08:17):
Good morning day? And Danet's best of the weekend was
I played golf with the Miller White distributor and just
wanted to give you guys the update. We are set
to go for the tailgate. I got the spot all
figured out. It's going to be a little private corner,
so you guys can be hitting a little bit if
you want, and looking forward to getting you to South Bend.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
We will be out there for usc Notre Dame. Thank you, Matt.
We look forward to that and we'll give you details.
We got a little bit of time before we get
out there, but we'll try to give you details if
you're coming out. We were going to do Thursday and
Friday from outside the stadium, but we'll let you know
because I'm sure college game Day is going to be
(08:59):
out there. We're going to have to pick our spot
so we don't get trampled there. That'll be fun going
back out there again. Yeah, Pauling, that's like mid October,
right maybe? Is it mid to late October fifteenth? The
game is the eighteenth, eighteenth. Okay, that's prime weather. Yeah
time foliage all foliage, Yes, right up your alley, Dustin
(09:22):
in Alabama, Hi, Dustin, Best and worst of the weekend, Good.
Speaker 10 (09:27):
Morning, Quick best investor, and then two really quick questions.
Best was my alma materors Parop Alabama's Riley Leonard for
the Indianapolis Colts going fifteen to twenty for the bomb
one hundred and eighty nine yards in a touchdown. Bester,
I spent my Sunday yesterday cleaning, organizing Michael Rodge, and
(09:48):
getting some cabinets put up in the wall that was
much overdue. Two quick questions, South Alibam boyd down at
the beatail time. I am going to Toledo, Ohio in
about two weeks for some Level three first T golf
coach training and I've never been anywhere near that part
of the country, so looking for some suggestions. And then
(10:09):
last question, I'd never heard last week anything get mentioned
about Auburn self proclaiming.
Speaker 11 (10:15):
Seven national titles. So just thinking maybe that's something y'all
could do with the sports Emmy and yeah suck at
Auburn and Mathan Rolltop all right.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Thank you, justin Yeah, I can't help you if you
get up to what Toledo. Yeah, I'm from southern Ohio.
But if you get a chance to go to Canton,
you can go to Canton Hall of fame, Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (10:40):
Last week the ad at Auburn claimed self claimed the
nineteen ten, nineteen fourteen, the nineteen fifty eight, and the
four national title. They really got a job at four
nineteen ten. I don't recall, but it was pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
It's still amazing the gene Chiswick won a national championship.
You know, Cam Newton, Cam Newton.
Speaker 12 (11:03):
Did you see the response by our buddy Scott Van
Pelt he self claimed the twenty twenty Sports Emmy for
Best Studios. Oh he did, Yes, and his show because
they played through during the pandemic as we did, and
so he self claimed the twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
No, he deserved Yes, he deserved it. He didn't Senior Night.
He deserved that, but so did we. We were here
every single day, three hours a day. Yeah, three hours,
not one hour, just saying yeah, we did three Scott,
not one. Part of the interruption is a half hour,
(11:38):
not even that, it's like twenty two minutes.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I think he was up for host. We would be
up for show. So he could get his, we could
get ours.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
I'm fine with that. Yeah, because he's a good host.
We're a great show.
Speaker 12 (11:50):
Yeah, pull or we could be co champions like Milgia
attack in Colorado nineteen ninety.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, I can't do that, can't do that. Didn't One
year President Nixon declared Texas the national chance like the president.
Uh could you see President Trump, you know, doing that.
I saw where he is trying to get Roger Clemens
in the Hall of Fame. Really he is, man, I
(12:15):
think so just like Pete Rose. Yes, yeah, yes, pulling.
Speaker 12 (12:21):
So before the game it was Texas versus Arkansas in
nineteen sixty nine, President Richard Nixon declared the winner of
the game will be the national title holder. And Penn
State was upset. They were in a different bowl game.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
They were disappointed or they were upset, Oh disappointed? Okay,
Mario and El Paso, Hey Mariol, Hey Dan.
Speaker 6 (12:42):
How are you doing good?
Speaker 5 (12:44):
Six?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
So I was telling you a screener that we're really
close to the border over here. I'm a public address announcer,
and so you know, the hawbai is like the early
local thing here. When ever you got to say somebody's
like first and lasting, you know, I'll be like first down, Carlos, right,
like you really have to announciate. Yeah that that Spanish flavor. Yeah,
(13:12):
and I'm wondering if the how I think it's kind of.
Speaker 9 (13:15):
Like a local thing.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
But that'll be like Carlos, you know, one of those things.
But anyway, just wanted to show that.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Well, thank you, thank you, Mario. Of course that clears
things up. Terry in Kentucky, Hi, Terry, what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (13:28):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (13:29):
Dan, just want to let you know I got to
take from uh Chuck Berrys. He won't know what hill
took so long to gong fritz Oh.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Okay, the guy who's the host of the gong show.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Very nice.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, he brought it back. He brought that, Yeah, he did,
dead guy. And then I had to gong.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You covered a lot of area with that.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, that was that was I thought a timely purchase.
I said to the big german, I needed gong to
gong Fritzie. And he goes, okay. And you'd be surprised.
There are a lot of gongs available on the internet trafficking. Yeah,
I don't know, like you know, illegal gongs, contraband yes, Marvin.
Speaker 13 (14:10):
So now with the gong in your studio, do you
not use the corner silence any longer?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Oh? I can use that sometimes. I kind of have
to remember to do that. Todd gets claustrophobic when I
do the conu silence and me see, I don't even
know if I got batteries in here to see if
it works. If you're watching, it's work. It is working, sweat,
if you're watching on peacock, here goes to if you know,
(14:39):
that's how it makes me okay? Are you okay?
Speaker 4 (14:46):
For about another eight to ten seconds, I'll be fun.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
All right, I'm gonna go eleven seconds. Two.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Yeah, I'm really not enjoying this right now.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
All right, let me let me see if it'll go up.
Oh darn these batteries. They're tricky. I think it's frozen.
You know what. I'll work on this tomorrow, Tod. That's
not going up. It's not going the damn batteries. Uh,
(15:25):
all right, I'm gonna find if I'll see if I can. Man,
it's not working, Tod.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Sorry, gotta be a button that works there, cross all
the buttons and what of it makes us go up?

in America Sunday Night football analyst and played wide receiver
(17:12):
in the NFL for eight seasons. Three time Pro Bowler, Chris,
that's it.
Speaker 8 (17:18):
Yeah, yeah, first alternate a few times too.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Does that count?
Speaker 5 (17:23):
No?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Okay, but that's when it throw it in.
Speaker 8 (17:27):
You know, it's pee cock. I can throw that in,
you know.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
But it meant something back then to be a Pro Bowl.
Speaker 8 (17:33):
You know, the game was hard back then. I mean
people got ripped. I mean, if you remember, there have
been a few players just explosive, just kind of shots.
But we were playing for real money back then. It
was either if you won, you got ten grand, if
you lost, you got five grand and you lost money
on the week, So that was the deal. I mean
(17:54):
you were playing.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
We were playing Chris and Company, Sunday Night Football. It'll
be on Thursday Night next Thursday Night, Cowboys and the Eagles.
And seventeen seasons as an analyst on the primetime Howard
Cosell is second with fourteen seasons in primetime. I didn't
know that.
Speaker 8 (18:14):
Well, that's a sure sign I'm getting old tale brother.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Congratulations.
Speaker 8 (18:20):
I love Howard, though. Did you know him at all?
Did you know Howard casselto.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Late in his life. I met him a couple of times,
and one was kind of a sad moment. He couldn't
pour water, he couldn't pour his own water because he
had Parkinson's. And the other one he yelled at me
for being on the phone when the baseball strike ended.
(18:44):
But it was this nineteen eighty four and I was
doing a live report over the phone for CNN, and
he yelled at me because it was the only phone
that was available. And he came out and he kept trying.
There were three other phones. They didn't work, and I said,
you know, Howard, I'm really sorry, but I can go
in this live report on CNN and he goes as
if the whole world's watching CNN, and then he stormed away.
(19:09):
Go on, I just I just met Howard go Sell.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
That was good.
Speaker 8 (19:14):
That was good. I had him at the Superstars and
I'm in the swimming competition, which they forced you because
they were a sponsor to wear speedos. So I'm next
to Mark gastine both wearing so Carsell's going up and down,
you know, doing this thing. Hey our gas and O
(19:36):
blah blah blah blah blah. And so he comes to
me next and he goes, well, mister Collins with what
do you think? And I looked down at myself. I
looked over at Gas and I looked down at myself,
looked over at Gas, and I said, Howard, I've never
felt so my entire life.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
And that was it.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
That was It was like the before and after. You
were the before and gastineau.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
Before.
Speaker 8 (20:07):
It was not good.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
I opened the show talking about rookie quarterbacks and mistakes
that they make. And in college you get the opportunity
to extend to play. Receivers are open longer, hold on
to the ball more. We saw this with Caleb Williams. Uh,
you know obviously we saw it with Shador Sanders. But
when you look at film, when you see rookie quarterbacks,
(20:33):
what are the things that are really jump out that
are negative?
Speaker 8 (20:40):
Hold the ball. I mean, Shadhur Sanders was a really
good player in college football. When he got the ball
out of his hands. You think, because he's Dion's son,
that he's a run around guy, right, you would think
in reality those were his worst place. When he got
(21:01):
the ball and got it out of his hand and
under two point five seconds, that guy could really play.
I mean, it was really impressive. And so my whole
thought on him is is he going to be able
to take a step back and say, all right, I
like to run around. I like to make plays out
of the pocket. But in reality, that's when I was
(21:22):
taking sacks. That's when I was turning the ball over.
There were some good plays in there too, but at
this level, you've got to get it out of your hand.
And that's what we've seen Jackson Dart do. That's what
we saw bo Nicks do last year. That's what we
see the young quarterbacks that can come into this league
and make an impact right away because those guys playing
(21:43):
edge rushers in the NFL are the greatest athletes in
the world. I mean, those guys are six six and
two seventy and run four or five and man, don't
mess with those guys.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Yeah, and getting into a rhythm. And I thought Dylan
Gabriel did a really good job. And I think he
was programmed to do that in college, where I thought
Shudor didn't have a good offensive line, did hold onto
the ball a little too much, and oil's fails. He
had Travis Hunter to bail him out. Now, you've got
to get into that rhythm. How do you teach that though?
(22:16):
With young quarterbacks?
Speaker 8 (22:18):
I mean I've seen everything. I've seen them blow a
horn at two point five seconds. Like so, I've had
kids even in high school that the idea of They
all want to do the same thing. Usually, if you're
playing quarterback in high school, you are the best athlete
in the school. Right, So your entire life, you've played tag,
(22:40):
you've played freeze tag, you've played all these different games. Right,
nobody could catching You're the best athlete. So you get
on the football field and what do you know how
to do? All right, let me just run around. They
can't catch me, and then I'll you know, make a play,
and you watch Patrick Mahomes, and you watch Lamar Jackson,
and you watch Josh Allen and those of the guys
that are competing for the MVP of the league. So
(23:03):
I want to be able to do that too. But
in reality, if you hold on to it, all you're
doing is inviting more pressure. If you get back there
in the pocket and you just go poop poop boo.
I mean, Jackson Dart, I wouldn't. I wouldn't blitz him
if he got in the game for anything, like I
want to see him throw the ball down the field
(23:23):
a little bit and read out the defense fully so
that you know, those are the kinds of things that
I think the adjustments are there in the National Football League,
and Caleb Williams is probably the prime example of that.
I think every analyst that went in there, and I think,
you know, as far as the top games, I'm the
(23:43):
only one that wasn't a quarterback. So he heard it
from everybody like get the ball out of your hands, Like, dude,
just get the ball out of your hands. It doesn't
matter complete seventy percent. And that's what Ben Johnson's been
trying to do with him just het seventy percent. We
got to hit seven out of ten of these and
that's really hard to do. That means a lot of
checking down in the NFL, and that's where he's got
(24:07):
to get to.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Are you preparing for Micah Parsons to prepare for the Eagles?
Speaker 8 (24:12):
Of course? Of course. I mean are you watching the
Netflix thing on the Cowboys? Are you seeing any of that?
And of course the Emmitt Smith thing. He held out
for the first two games. They lose the first two games.
Jerry's been down that road before. We've seen all this.
They want to be a show, they want to be
all these things. But the problem for Mike a is
(24:35):
that you know, they really do control them for the
next three years. He's under contract, and he can be
franchise tagged the two years after that. So I don't
know what the contract was that he agreed to. It
wasn't a great concept to go in and sit down
with Jerry Jones and start talking about a contract. It's
(24:56):
not a great concept for the Players Association to allow
NFL players in the room to negotiate with NFL owners.
Those guys are trained killers, right, I mean that they
are billionaires. They know how to negotiate deals. So as
an agent, there is no way I'm letting Micah Parsons
(25:18):
anywhere near Jerry Jones. I don't even want to have
a private conversation on the field. I don't want any
of that stuff. So but once you do, and you know,
man up. He said he was willing to take less earlier,
you know, and you know, whatever it was in the
off season and he goes, oh, I'd take less to
play for the Cowboys and all that, and Jerry took
(25:41):
that and ran with it, and whatever was said behind
closed doors, Jerry feels like he has a deal.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I know, we're obsessed with rankings, ranking our quarterbacks. You know,
where is Jalen Hurts? Is he a top ten? You know,
I don't know where you I'm going against my own
philosophy of you know, a kind of a knowledging these lists.
But I am curious, since you do have the Eagles
with Jalen Hurts, where does he kind of fit in
(26:07):
to the pantheon of quarterbacks.
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Yeah, I'm not sure that I've seen his story like
his I mean, I remember watching that National Championship game
when he got benched for Tuam and Tua gets in
the game and throws the game winning touchdown pass. They
win the National championship. Everybody's going crazy, and I think
(26:33):
most of us, maybe who are just parents, maybe those
are the people. But I was thinking, Oh my god,
that kid's career is over. Jalen hurts career is over.
He's been a really good player. But there is no way,
mentally or emotionally he comes back from this. You just
can't happen. Right, goes off to Oklahoma, and I think
(26:54):
he did a little bit of what we were just
talking about. He had one of the highest percentages when
he played for Oklahoma, comes out, gets drafted in the
second round. Universally, everybody was panning the pick. How what
are you doing in a second round quarterback? You might
as well just throw it in the garbage can or whatever.
(27:15):
But that's a team that was built around offensive line,
built around defensive line. And to watch him and to
meet him, You ever met him, You ever just had
a conversation with him.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Yeah, he's impressive.
Speaker 8 (27:31):
He's probably the most serious minded football player I've ever met.
I mean, to get a smile out of him, you
feel like, you know, you want to have a celebration,
But he is all in. He's all in for his teammates.
He's not afraid to lead, he's not afraid to put
his head down and run. And when we talk about
(27:54):
great players, what do we talk about in the NFL
going from the twenty to twenty Anybody can do that?
You know, if you had any chance at all, you
can do that. The game starts in two situations in
the red zone in short yard, right, those are the
two you got to convert on third and fourth down,
(28:16):
and you got to score touchdowns. When you get to
the red zone, you're kicking field goals. You're going to
lose in the NFL. And so what does this guy
do better than anybody else? He hits a high percentage,
be can run the ball with He's not a Lamar Jackson,
maybe more of a Josh Allen kind of a big, strong,
physical guy. But he scores touchdowns and he converts third downs,
(28:38):
some of them with his arm, some of them with
his legs, some of them with just sheer power or
you know, his brain, his audibles because he studied the
game so much. So it was interesting. I did an
interview with Peyton Manning not too long ago, and he
said that Jalen calls him all the time about how
do you operate? What were you thinking here? What do
(29:00):
you do there? And he's a real curious guy, but
he is He is a dynamic guy. What I want
him is my quarterback. I would take him all day long.
Plus he sets the tone for that physical style of play.
I mean, how frustrating would it be for a three
hundred pound, three hundred and fifty pound defensive tackle to
(29:22):
know he can't stop the quarterback from on a quarterback state.
That's making these teams insane. I mean, they tried to
change a frigging rule on them. It's making them all
crazy out there. So I really I think very highly
of him.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Well, what's different now? And you know this is NFL
teams drafted a quarterback and then you had to kind
of adopt that team's philosophy of what they do. Now
it feels like you're catering your offense. Whether it's Cam
Newton or Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen. We want to
cater our offense to your strengths.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
Yeah, Lamar Jackson's probably the top of that list.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Right.
Speaker 8 (30:02):
So that was a Ozzie sitting there and there's Lamar
last pick in the first round, and as it gets
a little closer, he and John Harbaugh are having this
conversation and I've talked to both of them about it,
and basically it was this, are we going to do this,
because you know, we've got to change everything that we've
(30:24):
ever thought about offense. If we're going to do this,
if we draft Lamar right here, and it's going to
be your last pick as a general manager, it's going
to be a bit of your legacy. I are ball
as a coach have to totally commit to what he does. Right,
And at the time, nobody I mean, obviously he's a
(30:46):
thirty second pick. Everybody else had a chance. They didn't
think that highly of them, right, But the one thing
that I thought about him from the beginning was that
he was a pocket passer at Louisville. He was That's
what he was. Now he scrambled out of that and
he ran and he did different things. So yeah, I
think that in its entirety now the league is about
(31:07):
finding guys who can make those plays, who can escape
pass rush, who can game and convert third downs, strong
enough to take a hit, smart enough to know how
to run an offense, but have a good enough arm.
And those are the guys. To me, those are the
guys that are winning championships right now.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Give me the team you're most curious about, probably the Bears.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
You know, I think it's hard to not want to
see what that combination is. Ben Johnson's a really good coach.
He's got a really talented quarterback and Caleb Williams. He's
stacked him with receivers all around him, helped him with
an offensive line. Joe Tooney's over there right now. And
(31:53):
I think Ben Johnson's that smart, you know, he's like,
you know, I hate that we have a rocket scientist
in the league. You know, he's a computer scientist, and
you know, so it's like, I don't know how much
of that makes a difference or not, but he's a
smart guy. And I think that what he did going
into Chicago was you know, I'm going to beat him up.
(32:15):
You know, I'm going to make his life really miserable.
This guy's gotten nil money in college. He drove a
fancy car before I ever drove a fancy car in
my life. I'm going to beat him up because this
is Chicago and they take football very seriously here, and
if he can't handle me, he certainly is not going
(32:36):
to be able to handle the Green Bay Packers and
the Minnesota Vikings, right So I'm going to beat him
up and see whether or not he can take it.
But I still believe the hardest thing he's going to
have to learn. The part that didn't make any sense
to me at the time why Ben took Chicago instead
of he could added almost any of the jobs, is
(32:58):
he had a quarterback in Callable who had I think
literally like a dozen snaps in college under center, and
so much of what they did in Detroit and the
reason they were so successful in Detroit was because they
were under center and they ran football and they very
much were part of that offensive line, you know, being
(33:20):
the driving force of the team. And then Jared Goff
became a good player because he got protected and they
ran the football and you can go play action. So
you know what they're trying to put in place here.
I just it'll be interesting to see whether Caleb can
become an under center quarterback.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
But I don't know why more quarterbacks don't get under center.
That takes away the illusion you know where you're going
to do play action where you actually are faking or
giving to a running back, And can you speak to
that of everybody's in the gun, I think.
Speaker 8 (33:55):
It's what they know. You know, they've got all these
passing camps now when they're in high school and you
go seven on seven and you do all that, and
so nobody's taking the center snap. And I can tell.
I mean, I played quarterback until I was a sophomore
in college when they finally figured out I couldn't throw
it at all. So but just and I would talk
(34:18):
to Kenny Anderson about it. I'm like, what are you
watching as you're going back? And he said, I'm watching
the two safeties. So if they split, that means one thing,
and one comes up and goes back. If they're too
deep that means another thing. I know through my progressions
immediately what I'm going to do. And I said, well,
why don't you like doing the shotgun? He said, because
(34:39):
I got to catch the ball. And I'm like, what
he goes, If I catch the ball, I have to
take my eyes off of those two safeties. So I
think to some extent there you see snaps get bobbled
all the time. But they're trying to watch the two safeties.
They're trying to see the field. They're trying to catch
it without really looking at the football. But they they've
(35:00):
gotten used to doing that over the years. What they
can't do is the reverse of it, which is drop
back and get themselves set and be able to make
the same kind of reads down the field. It's hard.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Good to talk to you. Excited for the upcoming season
and thanks for joining us.
Speaker 8 (35:18):
Good talking to you, buddy.

Speaker 4 (35:53):
Best of the Weekend At Maria Sharpoe's International Tennis Hall
of Fame enshrinement Saturday night, Serena Williams came out to
surpriser calling her a formal rival, former fan and forever friend.
She added this, which I thought was sweet. There are
only a few players in my career who chouse me
to be the very best every single time we stepped
out in the court. Maria Sharapova was one of them.
Whenever I saw her name next to mine in the draw,
I made sure I practiced harder. Worst of the weekend.
(36:16):
After some pushing and shoving during the team's final preseason
game Saturday Night, Bucks rookie safety Shiloh Standers gets ejected
late in the second court after throwing a punch of
bills out in Zach Davidson. He was cut by Tampa yesterday.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Yeah, I guess there's still a chance that he could
come back to the team, but you know, they cut
him out to the game. Satan best and worst.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Best thing I saw this weekend. There are these I'm
trying to find some good video, maybe I'll do a
look in on it. But there are these adult tackle
football leagues popping up all over the place. It's like
you thirty seven or something, you forty or whatever, and
it's a bunch of older dudes in varying degrees of shape.
It is simultaneously the most brutal thing and most hilarious
(36:57):
thing I've seen in a long time. Partially disturbing, partially
just the best entertaining. Yes, yes, yeah, full pads, full pads,
full hitting, full everything. ACL's flying all over the place.
It is just amazing. And these dudes take off their
helmets and you know, gray in their beards and everything.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
It's so good. It is so good.
Speaker 3 (37:22):
My kind of don't really understand, but I'm sure it
is a big deal. A lot of controversy coming out
of the US Open, and especially the start time starting
on Sunday rather than Monday. I don't know if that's
just a tradition issue or if there are actual, like
competitive reasons for it.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
But yeah, I didn't even know the US Open started.
It's like all of a sudden, I saw some matches
or results and a controversy with a photographer.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
The photographer is a big controversy.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Booing Quiet Marvin Best and Worst.
Speaker 13 (37:58):
Best of the weekend. UNFV running back Jet Thomas had
a big night. Ten carries, one hundred and forty seven yards,
three touchdowns. His real name is not Jet, it's Jaden.
When he's called him Jet, Worse of the weekend because
he's fast. Correct your team, my team, Everyone's team. The
(38:18):
Colorado Rockies they lost to the Pirates. They officially eliminated
from playoff contention.
Speaker 12 (38:25):
Okay, Paul beston worst Best of the weekend, Havaii beating
Stanford in football and the quarterback for Micah Alajedo. He's
only five to ten, twenty seven to thirty nine to ten,
two touchdowns with a really bum foot. He was laboring
in the second half, so Elajeado for a vie and
then the Little League World Series. I don't know which
(38:46):
team or which player it was, but they put like
favorite band on their bios or favorite foods. What you
want to be when you grow up is often on
the graphic, and this young man wanted to be an actuary,
and it got quite the response in the booth because
it's non traditional an actuary.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Okay, Todd, do you know what an actuary does?
Speaker 4 (39:05):
I thought it was either something tax related or some
kind of legal thing, but I don't know. I couldn't
guess anything more specific than something legal or handling something taxes.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
I just thought it it was like it had to
do with mathematical stuff and like I think when you
look at potential losses and gains and then you have
to kind of guess on that, maybe it's bess to
(39:33):
do with insurance, right, I don't know. I think an
actuary works in insurance. Okay, that would make sense if
they're looking at risk that is. Does that sound right, Paul?
Speaker 7 (39:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (39:46):
I think collectively we're right. Ish actuaries use math, statistics,
and financial theory to analyze economic risk and uncertainty, most
commonly in the insurance companies for risk tables going forward.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Okay, I think we got it. I think we did
better than Carl Ravage did and the Little League crew
when they were talking about it. Do you have a
worst of the weekend? No? No, two besters? Okay, that's great.
I saw these Paul Skeens numbers. These are historical numbers
(40:17):
that he's putting up. The live ball era in baseball
started nineteen twenty. The lowest RARA in the first fifty
starts for a pitcher in the history of the game
Vita Blue two point one. Second on the list is
Paul Skeenes two point two lowest era in the first
(40:38):
fifty starts of a career. How about the best whip,
the lowest whip in the first fifty starts in the
history of Major League Baseball. Paul Skeens is number one
highest strikeout rate. This is the first fifty starts of
a career. Uh Paul's schemes is in the top ten.
(41:04):
I mean, these are incredible numbers. He is the tenth
lowest batting average for the first fifty starts in the
history of the game. The slugging percentage against him is
the eighteenth lowest in baseball history. Remarkable, and he's a
(41:26):
five hundred pitcher. Well in record and this year while
he's playing for the Pirates, we'll talk some football. Rick
Neuheisel will stop by. Are we going to a twenty
four twenty eighteen playoff? Who's winning the SEC, Who's winning
the Big Ten? Find out next

eight seven seven three DP show email address Dpatdanpatrick dot Com,
Twitter handle a DP show and we'll get to phone calls.
Coming up, best and worst of the weekend. Operator Tyler
(00:47):
sitting by. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock. Thank
you for downloading the app. And we say good morning
to our radio affiliates numbering over four hundred cities that
carry the program. From the crew that brought you the Office,
comes a new comedy of under dogs with major issues.
Sounds like US stream the paper. September fourth, only on Peacock.
(01:07):
Seaton Recap Hour one, whole question results and what are
we going with an hour or two?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
This is a controversial grouping of pull questions, Do you
keep the numbers of people who have passed away on
your phone?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Right now?
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Seventy six percent of the audience say yes. And then
the addition or addendum to that was, is texting the
number of someone who has died to say hello a
healthy thing to do?
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Okay? Right now?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Seventy seven percent of the audience say no, Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
So I'm I'm in the majority on the first one,
in the minority of the second one. So yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
I I don't like when when somebody I know dies,
I don't even think of, oh, I should take their
number out of my phone. I just it isn't even
part of the thought process. Maybe occasionally you'll be looking
for someone's phone number and that'll pop up or something,
but I don't actively seek to remove it. But I
also don't think let me keep it on here, though,
because it's fun. Okay, But imagine this happening, because it did.
(02:17):
I text somebody who had passed away and his son
had the phone, and his son text me back. But
I don't know that his son has the phone. I'm
just saying, hey, Tom, thinking of you and whatever, get
a message back, thanks, and then I find out later
(02:40):
that he wasn't sure what to say back to me
because he didn't want me to think like Tom's texting
me from wherever, and so it was kind of awkward
where you actually get a text message from somebody who's
passed away their phone and it just said thanks.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Could have been an emoji. I would have ciate a
good emoji from somebody who's passed away. Stat of the
day brought to you boy Pennini America, the official trading
cards of this program. So Big Weekend College Football next weekend,
NFL preseason is over and the cuts will be happening.
They took place over the weekend as well. We'll talk
to Chris Collinsworth as he gets ready for the Eagles
(03:20):
and the Cowboys. Is he preparing for MICHAEH. Parsons to
be preparing for the Eagles. So we'll talk to Chris.
Coming up, what's the poll question? We're going with an
hour two Seaton.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Well, the commentary surrounding this one is great. Many people
have suggested that Todd has surpassed his limit of words
for Monday, and that maybe Todd should be shut down.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
You should be on a word count sometimes think you
should be. Was that a lot of worth? Well, you
took forever to really tell me what you really felt
in that. It was kind of weird that I text
my mom or text you know a couple people we're
friends who passed away.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
I think I was working it out in my head
as I was talking aloud. That was part of the problem.
I didn't really kind of put it together and then
present it as an argument. I was just kind of
going with the flow.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Why did you prepare.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Like a statement out at least about my thoughts on
a given topic.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Have you ever heard of the phrase putting your foot
in your mouth?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah? That was an example of it time.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Yeah, I probably put both feet in my mouth. Amazing
how you could even understand any of the words with who?
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Probably unclear? I ask you, I think three times, I
don't know what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Sometimes I'm not sure what, but I do think a
psychologist or psychiagist might say you need to close the
chapter on your friend or family member and it's okay,
you're not like deleting them from your life and your memories, and.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
You okay, we're not doing this. We're not doing this.
I I told you what I do like we are.
I don't want you. I don't care what your opinion is, Dodd,
you don't know I do not.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
No.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Oh that that's insensitive, But not you criticizing me for
being a strange guy. Yes see, we're now.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Getting like posts from people on social media commenting on this, saying,
like this person said, I have several voicemails from my
dad semi colon miss your pop. So now that guy's
reaching out to his dad through our Twitter, posting his
toes that just in case Dad is scrolling the timeline,
you never know.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You never know what, Todd.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I guess it's possible that some people you see it
on daylight, like some people fake their death and maybe
they're actually alive. And in your case, the Sun responded, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no. Maybe he's a chance that some of
these people are alive.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
My mom is dead.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
But in some cases someone could respond to I've been
Tahiti hiding from everyone, and I couldn't take it anymore.
I couldn't take my husband forever.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Damn.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
This is between us. I'm still alive, but don't share
this with any one.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Other people are commenting about how you do realize that
phone numbers are reassigned to new people who are now
getting your text messages and probably just ignoring them. That's okay,
not not you specifically, just in general people who do
those kinds of things.
Speaker 6 (06:20):
All right.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Uh, Tom and Ohio, Hi Tom, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Dan? How are you?
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (06:25):
I'm great, first time, long time, six foot one, ninety
Hey Dan, I just want to chime in. I did
the same thing. I've got friends and family members and
did it past and I keep their number in my
phone because it's for me. It's a way of remembering
them and a good or bad emotion or good or
bad memory. It's it's just a way of memorializing and
(06:46):
I love it. So you're not doing anything wrong in
my in my book.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Well, thank you, Tom, I appreciate that. I feel better.
Now take that, Todd, Oh.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
You care about Tom and Ohio's opinion. I'm working for
twenty three years, he shut me down.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Morgan in Maryland, Good morning, Morgan, Good morning VP.
Speaker 7 (07:08):
So I got Bess and work's the weekend. Best of
the weekend. I'm actually a little further north than you
guys in Barry, New Hampshire, at my friend's lake house
for good about five days with the kids, just like
paddle boarding and on the boat and morning coffee is
on the dock. It's pretty sweet and I like it
up here.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Awesome worst weekend.
Speaker 7 (07:29):
It's kind of tied to that. My son has, you know,
discovered that when he's outside he can kind of pee wherever.
But he's when I say wherever, he's not going to
like a bush or a tree. So yesterday morning he
drops trow off of the dock and I'm saying, like,
he drops trow and holds his shirt up. He's not
holding anything. He just let it rain. And there must
(07:49):
have been like a bass fishing tournament going on because
we we're on like a no wake zone, and there
must have been ten fifteen boats that just came out
slowly going by and seeing my son just letting it
rain off the doc and I'm just standing there with
my coffee, like, hello, good morning.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
How old is he?
Speaker 8 (08:05):
Fo?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Oh? Okay? Four? I thought if you're going to say's twelve,
then maybe we have an issue there. But thank you Morgan.
Enjoy the scenery there. Matt in South Bend, Hi, Matt,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (08:17):
Good morning day? And Danet's best of the weekend was
I played golf with the Miller White distributor and just
wanted to give you guys the update. We are set
to go for the tailgate. I got the spot all
figured out. It's going to be a little private corner,
so you guys can be hitting a little bit if
you want, and looking forward to getting you to South Bend.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
We will be out there for usc Notre Dame. Thank you, Matt.
We look forward to that and we'll give you details.
We got a little bit of time before we get
out there, but we'll try to give you details if
you're coming out. We were going to do Thursday and
Friday from outside the stadium, but we'll let you know
because I'm sure college game Day is going to be
(08:59):
out there. We're going to have to pick our spot
so we don't get trampled there. That'll be fun going
back out there again. Yeah, Pauling, that's like mid October,
right maybe? Is it mid to late October fifteenth? The
game is the eighteenth, eighteenth. Okay, that's prime weather. Yeah
time foliage all foliage, Yes, right up your alley, Dustin
(09:22):
in Alabama, Hi, Dustin, Best and worst of the weekend, Good.
Speaker 10 (09:27):
Morning, Quick best investor, and then two really quick questions.
Best was my alma materors Parop Alabama's Riley Leonard for
the Indianapolis Colts going fifteen to twenty for the bomb
one hundred and eighty nine yards in a touchdown. Bester,
I spent my Sunday yesterday cleaning, organizing Michael Rodge, and
(09:48):
getting some cabinets put up in the wall that was
much overdue. Two quick questions, South Alibam boyd down at
the beatail time. I am going to Toledo, Ohio in
about two weeks for some Level three first T golf
coach training and I've never been anywhere near that part
of the country, so looking for some suggestions. And then
(10:09):
last question, I'd never heard last week anything get mentioned
about Auburn self proclaiming.
Speaker 11 (10:15):
Seven national titles. So just thinking maybe that's something y'all
could do with the sports Emmy and yeah suck at
Auburn and Mathan Rolltop all right.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Thank you, justin Yeah, I can't help you if you
get up to what Toledo. Yeah, I'm from southern Ohio.
But if you get a chance to go to Canton,
you can go to Canton Hall of fame, Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (10:40):
Last week the ad at Auburn claimed self claimed the
nineteen ten, nineteen fourteen, the nineteen fifty eight, and the
four national title. They really got a job at four
nineteen ten. I don't recall, but it was pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
It's still amazing the gene Chiswick won a national championship.
You know, Cam Newton, Cam Newton.
Speaker 12 (11:03):
Did you see the response by our buddy Scott Van
Pelt he self claimed the twenty twenty Sports Emmy for
Best Studios. Oh he did, Yes, and his show because
they played through during the pandemic as we did, and
so he self claimed the twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
No, he deserved Yes, he deserved it. He didn't Senior Night.
He deserved that, but so did we. We were here
every single day, three hours a day. Yeah, three hours,
not one hour, just saying yeah, we did three Scott,
not one. Part of the interruption is a half hour,
(11:38):
not even that, it's like twenty two minutes.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I think he was up for host. We would be
up for show. So he could get his, we could
get ours.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
I'm fine with that. Yeah, because he's a good host.
We're a great show.
Speaker 12 (11:50):
Yeah, pull or we could be co champions like Milgia
attack in Colorado nineteen ninety.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, I can't do that, can't do that. Didn't One
year President Nixon declared Texas the national chance like the president.
Uh could you see President Trump, you know, doing that.
I saw where he is trying to get Roger Clemens
in the Hall of Fame. Really he is, man, I
(12:15):
think so just like Pete Rose. Yes, yeah, yes, pulling.
Speaker 12 (12:21):
So before the game it was Texas versus Arkansas in
nineteen sixty nine, President Richard Nixon declared the winner of
the game will be the national title holder. And Penn
State was upset. They were in a different bowl game.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
They were disappointed or they were upset, Oh disappointed? Okay,
Mario and El Paso, Hey Mariol, Hey Dan.
Speaker 6 (12:42):
How are you doing good?
Speaker 5 (12:44):
Six?
Speaker 6 (12:48):
So I was telling you a screener that we're really
close to the border over here. I'm a public address announcer,
and so you know, the hawbai is like the early
local thing here. When ever you got to say somebody's
like first and lasting, you know, I'll be like first down, Carlos, right,
like you really have to announciate. Yeah that that Spanish flavor. Yeah,
(13:12):
and I'm wondering if the how I think it's kind of.
Speaker 9 (13:15):
Like a local thing.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
But that'll be like Carlos, you know, one of those things.
But anyway, just wanted to show that.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Well, thank you, thank you, Mario. Of course that clears
things up. Terry in Kentucky, Hi, Terry, what's on your mind?
Speaker 9 (13:28):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (13:29):
Dan, just want to let you know I got to
take from uh Chuck Berrys. He won't know what hill
took so long to gong fritz Oh.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Okay, the guy who's the host of the gong show.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Very nice.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, he brought it back. He brought that, Yeah, he did,
dead guy. And then I had to gong.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You covered a lot of area with that.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, that was that was I thought a timely purchase.
I said to the big german, I needed gong to
gong Fritzie. And he goes, okay. And you'd be surprised.
There are a lot of gongs available on the internet trafficking. Yeah,
I don't know, like you know, illegal gongs, contraband yes, Marvin.
Speaker 13 (14:10):
So now with the gong in your studio, do you
not use the corner silence any longer?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Oh? I can use that sometimes. I kind of have
to remember to do that. Todd gets claustrophobic when I
do the conu silence and me see, I don't even
know if I got batteries in here to see if
it works. If you're watching, it's work. It is working, sweat,
if you're watching on peacock, here goes to if you know,
(14:39):
that's how it makes me okay? Are you okay?
Speaker 4 (14:46):
For about another eight to ten seconds, I'll be fun.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
All right, I'm gonna go eleven seconds. Two.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Yeah, I'm really not enjoying this right now.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
All right, let me let me see if it'll go up.
Oh darn these batteries. They're tricky. I think it's frozen.
You know what. I'll work on this tomorrow, Tod. That's
not going up. It's not going the damn batteries. Uh,
(15:25):
all right, I'm gonna find if I'll see if I can. Man,
it's not working, Tod.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
Sorry, gotta be a button that works there, cross all
the buttons and what of it makes us go up?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
It has to be all right. We're gonna take a
break and uh, let me see if I can get
this fixed. Chris Collins were set to join us coming

in America Sunday Night football analyst and played wide receiver
(17:12):
in the NFL for eight seasons. Three time Pro Bowler, Chris,
that's it.
Speaker 8 (17:18):
Yeah, yeah, first alternate a few times too.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Does that count?
Speaker 5 (17:23):
No?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Okay, but that's when it throw it in.
Speaker 8 (17:27):
You know, it's pee cock. I can throw that in,
you know.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
But it meant something back then to be a Pro Bowl.
Speaker 8 (17:33):
You know, the game was hard back then. I mean
people got ripped. I mean, if you remember, there have
been a few players just explosive, just kind of shots.
But we were playing for real money back then. It
was either if you won, you got ten grand, if
you lost, you got five grand and you lost money
on the week, So that was the deal. I mean
(17:54):
you were playing.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
We were playing Chris and Company, Sunday Night Football. It'll
be on Thursday Night next Thursday Night, Cowboys and the Eagles.
And seventeen seasons as an analyst on the primetime Howard
Cosell is second with fourteen seasons in primetime. I didn't
know that.
Speaker 8 (18:14):
Well, that's a sure sign I'm getting old tale brother.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Congratulations.
Speaker 8 (18:20):
I love Howard, though. Did you know him at all?
Did you know Howard casselto.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Late in his life. I met him a couple of times,
and one was kind of a sad moment. He couldn't
pour water, he couldn't pour his own water because he
had Parkinson's. And the other one he yelled at me
for being on the phone when the baseball strike ended.
(18:44):
But it was this nineteen eighty four and I was
doing a live report over the phone for CNN, and
he yelled at me because it was the only phone
that was available. And he came out and he kept trying.
There were three other phones. They didn't work, and I said,
you know, Howard, I'm really sorry, but I can go
in this live report on CNN and he goes as
if the whole world's watching CNN, and then he stormed away.
(19:09):
Go on, I just I just met Howard go Sell.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
That was good.
Speaker 8 (19:14):
That was good. I had him at the Superstars and
I'm in the swimming competition, which they forced you because
they were a sponsor to wear speedos. So I'm next
to Mark gastine both wearing so Carsell's going up and down,
you know, doing this thing. Hey our gas and O
(19:36):
blah blah blah blah blah. And so he comes to
me next and he goes, well, mister Collins with what
do you think? And I looked down at myself. I
looked over at Gas and I looked down at myself,
looked over at Gas, and I said, Howard, I've never
felt so my entire life.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
And that was it.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
That was It was like the before and after. You
were the before and gastineau.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
Before.
Speaker 8 (20:07):
It was not good.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
I opened the show talking about rookie quarterbacks and mistakes
that they make. And in college you get the opportunity
to extend to play. Receivers are open longer, hold on
to the ball more. We saw this with Caleb Williams. Uh,
you know obviously we saw it with Shador Sanders. But
when you look at film, when you see rookie quarterbacks,
(20:33):
what are the things that are really jump out that
are negative?
Speaker 8 (20:40):
Hold the ball. I mean, Shadhur Sanders was a really
good player in college football. When he got the ball
out of his hands. You think, because he's Dion's son,
that he's a run around guy, right, you would think
in reality those were his worst place. When he got
(21:01):
the ball and got it out of his hand and
under two point five seconds, that guy could really play.
I mean, it was really impressive. And so my whole
thought on him is is he going to be able
to take a step back and say, all right, I
like to run around. I like to make plays out
of the pocket. But in reality, that's when I was
(21:22):
taking sacks. That's when I was turning the ball over.
There were some good plays in there too, but at
this level, you've got to get it out of your hand.
And that's what we've seen Jackson Dart do. That's what
we saw bo Nicks do last year. That's what we
see the young quarterbacks that can come into this league
and make an impact right away because those guys playing
(21:43):
edge rushers in the NFL are the greatest athletes in
the world. I mean, those guys are six six and
two seventy and run four or five and man, don't
mess with those guys.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Yeah, and getting into a rhythm. And I thought Dylan
Gabriel did a really good job. And I think he
was programmed to do that in college, where I thought
Shudor didn't have a good offensive line, did hold onto
the ball a little too much, and oil's fails. He
had Travis Hunter to bail him out. Now, you've got
to get into that rhythm. How do you teach that though?
(22:16):
With young quarterbacks?
Speaker 8 (22:18):
I mean I've seen everything. I've seen them blow a
horn at two point five seconds. Like so, I've had
kids even in high school that the idea of They
all want to do the same thing. Usually, if you're
playing quarterback in high school, you are the best athlete
in the school. Right, So your entire life, you've played tag,
(22:40):
you've played freeze tag, you've played all these different games. Right,
nobody could catching You're the best athlete. So you get
on the football field and what do you know how
to do? All right, let me just run around. They
can't catch me, and then I'll you know, make a play,
and you watch Patrick Mahomes, and you watch Lamar Jackson,
and you watch Josh Allen and those of the guys
that are competing for the MVP of the league. So
(23:03):
I want to be able to do that too. But
in reality, if you hold on to it, all you're
doing is inviting more pressure. If you get back there
in the pocket and you just go poop poop boo.
I mean, Jackson Dart, I wouldn't. I wouldn't blitz him
if he got in the game for anything, like I
want to see him throw the ball down the field
(23:23):
a little bit and read out the defense fully so
that you know, those are the kinds of things that
I think the adjustments are there in the National Football League,
and Caleb Williams is probably the prime example of that.
I think every analyst that went in there, and I think,
you know, as far as the top games, I'm the
(23:43):
only one that wasn't a quarterback. So he heard it
from everybody like get the ball out of your hands, Like, dude,
just get the ball out of your hands. It doesn't
matter complete seventy percent. And that's what Ben Johnson's been
trying to do with him just het seventy percent. We
got to hit seven out of ten of these and
that's really hard to do. That means a lot of
checking down in the NFL, and that's where he's got
(24:07):
to get to.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Are you preparing for Micah Parsons to prepare for the Eagles?
Speaker 8 (24:12):
Of course? Of course. I mean are you watching the
Netflix thing on the Cowboys? Are you seeing any of that?
And of course the Emmitt Smith thing. He held out
for the first two games. They lose the first two games.
Jerry's been down that road before. We've seen all this.
They want to be a show, they want to be
all these things. But the problem for Mike a is
(24:35):
that you know, they really do control them for the
next three years. He's under contract, and he can be
franchise tagged the two years after that. So I don't
know what the contract was that he agreed to. It
wasn't a great concept to go in and sit down
with Jerry Jones and start talking about a contract. It's
(24:56):
not a great concept for the Players Association to allow
NFL players in the room to negotiate with NFL owners.
Those guys are trained killers, right, I mean that they
are billionaires. They know how to negotiate deals. So as
an agent, there is no way I'm letting Micah Parsons
(25:18):
anywhere near Jerry Jones. I don't even want to have
a private conversation on the field. I don't want any
of that stuff. So but once you do, and you know,
man up. He said he was willing to take less earlier,
you know, and you know, whatever it was in the
off season and he goes, oh, I'd take less to
play for the Cowboys and all that, and Jerry took
(25:41):
that and ran with it, and whatever was said behind
closed doors, Jerry feels like he has a deal.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I know, we're obsessed with rankings, ranking our quarterbacks. You know,
where is Jalen Hurts? Is he a top ten? You know,
I don't know where you I'm going against my own
philosophy of you know, a kind of a knowledging these lists.
But I am curious, since you do have the Eagles
with Jalen Hurts, where does he kind of fit in
(26:07):
to the pantheon of quarterbacks.
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Yeah, I'm not sure that I've seen his story like
his I mean, I remember watching that National Championship game
when he got benched for Tuam and Tua gets in
the game and throws the game winning touchdown pass. They
win the National championship. Everybody's going crazy, and I think
(26:33):
most of us, maybe who are just parents, maybe those
are the people. But I was thinking, Oh my god,
that kid's career is over. Jalen hurts career is over.
He's been a really good player. But there is no way,
mentally or emotionally he comes back from this. You just
can't happen. Right, goes off to Oklahoma, and I think
(26:54):
he did a little bit of what we were just
talking about. He had one of the highest percentages when
he played for Oklahoma, comes out, gets drafted in the
second round. Universally, everybody was panning the pick. How what
are you doing in a second round quarterback? You might
as well just throw it in the garbage can or whatever.
(27:15):
But that's a team that was built around offensive line,
built around defensive line. And to watch him and to
meet him, You ever met him, You ever just had
a conversation with him.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
Yeah, he's impressive.
Speaker 8 (27:31):
He's probably the most serious minded football player I've ever met.
I mean, to get a smile out of him, you
feel like, you know, you want to have a celebration,
But he is all in. He's all in for his teammates.
He's not afraid to lead, he's not afraid to put
his head down and run. And when we talk about
(27:54):
great players, what do we talk about in the NFL
going from the twenty to twenty Anybody can do that?
You know, if you had any chance at all, you
can do that. The game starts in two situations in
the red zone in short yard, right, those are the
two you got to convert on third and fourth down,
(28:16):
and you got to score touchdowns. When you get to
the red zone, you're kicking field goals. You're going to
lose in the NFL. And so what does this guy
do better than anybody else? He hits a high percentage,
be can run the ball with He's not a Lamar Jackson,
maybe more of a Josh Allen kind of a big, strong,
physical guy. But he scores touchdowns and he converts third downs,
(28:38):
some of them with his arm, some of them with
his legs, some of them with just sheer power or
you know, his brain, his audibles because he studied the
game so much. So it was interesting. I did an
interview with Peyton Manning not too long ago, and he
said that Jalen calls him all the time about how
do you operate? What were you thinking here? What do
(29:00):
you do there? And he's a real curious guy, but
he is He is a dynamic guy. What I want
him is my quarterback. I would take him all day long.
Plus he sets the tone for that physical style of play.
I mean, how frustrating would it be for a three
hundred pound, three hundred and fifty pound defensive tackle to
(29:22):
know he can't stop the quarterback from on a quarterback state.
That's making these teams insane. I mean, they tried to
change a frigging rule on them. It's making them all
crazy out there. So I really I think very highly
of him.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Well, what's different now? And you know this is NFL
teams drafted a quarterback and then you had to kind
of adopt that team's philosophy of what they do. Now
it feels like you're catering your offense. Whether it's Cam
Newton or Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen. We want to
cater our offense to your strengths.
Speaker 8 (29:57):
Yeah, Lamar Jackson's probably the top of that list.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Right.
Speaker 8 (30:02):
So that was a Ozzie sitting there and there's Lamar
last pick in the first round, and as it gets
a little closer, he and John Harbaugh are having this
conversation and I've talked to both of them about it,
and basically it was this, are we going to do this,
because you know, we've got to change everything that we've
(30:24):
ever thought about offense. If we're going to do this,
if we draft Lamar right here, and it's going to
be your last pick as a general manager, it's going
to be a bit of your legacy. I are ball
as a coach have to totally commit to what he does. Right,
And at the time, nobody I mean, obviously he's a
(30:46):
thirty second pick. Everybody else had a chance. They didn't
think that highly of them, right, But the one thing
that I thought about him from the beginning was that
he was a pocket passer at Louisville. He was That's
what he was. Now he scrambled out of that and
he ran and he did different things. So yeah, I
think that in its entirety now the league is about
(31:07):
finding guys who can make those plays, who can escape
pass rush, who can game and convert third downs, strong
enough to take a hit, smart enough to know how
to run an offense, but have a good enough arm.
And those are the guys. To me, those are the
guys that are winning championships right now.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Give me the team you're most curious about, probably the Bears.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
You know, I think it's hard to not want to
see what that combination is. Ben Johnson's a really good coach.
He's got a really talented quarterback and Caleb Williams. He's
stacked him with receivers all around him, helped him with
an offensive line. Joe Tooney's over there right now. And
(31:53):
I think Ben Johnson's that smart, you know, he's like,
you know, I hate that we have a rocket scientist
in the league. You know, he's a computer scientist, and
you know, so it's like, I don't know how much
of that makes a difference or not, but he's a
smart guy. And I think that what he did going
into Chicago was you know, I'm going to beat him up.
(32:15):
You know, I'm going to make his life really miserable.
This guy's gotten nil money in college. He drove a
fancy car before I ever drove a fancy car in
my life. I'm going to beat him up because this
is Chicago and they take football very seriously here, and
if he can't handle me, he certainly is not going
(32:36):
to be able to handle the Green Bay Packers and
the Minnesota Vikings, right So I'm going to beat him
up and see whether or not he can take it.
But I still believe the hardest thing he's going to
have to learn. The part that didn't make any sense
to me at the time why Ben took Chicago instead
of he could added almost any of the jobs, is
(32:58):
he had a quarterback in Callable who had I think
literally like a dozen snaps in college under center, and
so much of what they did in Detroit and the
reason they were so successful in Detroit was because they
were under center and they ran football and they very
much were part of that offensive line, you know, being
(33:20):
the driving force of the team. And then Jared Goff
became a good player because he got protected and they
ran the football and you can go play action. So
you know what they're trying to put in place here.
I just it'll be interesting to see whether Caleb can
become an under center quarterback.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
But I don't know why more quarterbacks don't get under center.
That takes away the illusion you know where you're going
to do play action where you actually are faking or
giving to a running back, And can you speak to
that of everybody's in the gun, I think.
Speaker 8 (33:55):
It's what they know. You know, they've got all these
passing camps now when they're in high school and you
go seven on seven and you do all that, and
so nobody's taking the center snap. And I can tell.
I mean, I played quarterback until I was a sophomore
in college when they finally figured out I couldn't throw
it at all. So but just and I would talk
(34:18):
to Kenny Anderson about it. I'm like, what are you
watching as you're going back? And he said, I'm watching
the two safeties. So if they split, that means one thing,
and one comes up and goes back. If they're too
deep that means another thing. I know through my progressions
immediately what I'm going to do. And I said, well,
why don't you like doing the shotgun? He said, because
(34:39):
I got to catch the ball. And I'm like, what
he goes, If I catch the ball, I have to
take my eyes off of those two safeties. So I
think to some extent there you see snaps get bobbled
all the time. But they're trying to watch the two safeties.
They're trying to see the field. They're trying to catch
it without really looking at the football. But they they've
(35:00):
gotten used to doing that over the years. What they
can't do is the reverse of it, which is drop
back and get themselves set and be able to make
the same kind of reads down the field. It's hard.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Good to talk to you. Excited for the upcoming season
and thanks for joining us.
Speaker 8 (35:18):

Best of the Weekend At Maria Sharpoe's International Tennis Hall
of Fame enshrinement Saturday night, Serena Williams came out to
surpriser calling her a formal rival, former fan and forever friend.
She added this, which I thought was sweet. There are
only a few players in my career who chouse me
to be the very best every single time we stepped
out in the court. Maria Sharapova was one of them.
Whenever I saw her name next to mine in the draw,
I made sure I practiced harder. Worst of the weekend.
(36:16):
After some pushing and shoving during the team's final preseason
game Saturday Night, Bucks rookie safety Shiloh Standers gets ejected
late in the second court after throwing a punch of
bills out in Zach Davidson. He was cut by Tampa yesterday.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Yeah, I guess there's still a chance that he could
come back to the team, but you know, they cut
him out to the game. Satan best and worst.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Best thing I saw this weekend. There are these I'm
trying to find some good video, maybe I'll do a
look in on it. But there are these adult tackle
football leagues popping up all over the place. It's like
you thirty seven or something, you forty or whatever, and
it's a bunch of older dudes in varying degrees of shape.
It is simultaneously the most brutal thing and most hilarious
(36:57):
thing I've seen in a long time. Partially disturbing, partially
just the best entertaining. Yes, yes, yeah, full pads, full pads,
full hitting, full everything. ACL's flying all over the place.
It is just amazing. And these dudes take off their
helmets and you know, gray in their beards and everything.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
It's so good. It is so good.
Speaker 3 (37:22):
My kind of don't really understand, but I'm sure it
is a big deal. A lot of controversy coming out
of the US Open, and especially the start time starting
on Sunday rather than Monday. I don't know if that's
just a tradition issue or if there are actual, like
competitive reasons for it.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
But yeah, I didn't even know the US Open started.
It's like all of a sudden, I saw some matches
or results and a controversy with a photographer.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
The photographer is a big controversy.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Booing Quiet Marvin Best and Worst.
Speaker 13 (37:58):
Best of the weekend. UNFV running back Jet Thomas had
a big night. Ten carries, one hundred and forty seven yards,
three touchdowns. His real name is not Jet, it's Jaden.
When he's called him Jet, Worse of the weekend because
he's fast. Correct your team, my team, Everyone's team. The
(38:18):
Colorado Rockies they lost to the Pirates. They officially eliminated
from playoff contention.
Speaker 12 (38:25):
Okay, Paul beston worst Best of the weekend, Havaii beating
Stanford in football and the quarterback for Micah Alajedo. He's
only five to ten, twenty seven to thirty nine to ten,
two touchdowns with a really bum foot. He was laboring
in the second half, so Elajeado for a vie and
then the Little League World Series. I don't know which
(38:46):
team or which player it was, but they put like
favorite band on their bios or favorite foods. What you
want to be when you grow up is often on
the graphic, and this young man wanted to be an actuary,
and it got quite the response in the booth because
it's non traditional an actuary.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Okay, Todd, do you know what an actuary does?
Speaker 4 (39:05):
I thought it was either something tax related or some
kind of legal thing, but I don't know. I couldn't
guess anything more specific than something legal or handling something taxes.
Speaker 2 (39:12):
I just thought it it was like it had to
do with mathematical stuff and like I think when you
look at potential losses and gains and then you have
to kind of guess on that, maybe it's bess to
(39:33):
do with insurance, right, I don't know. I think an
actuary works in insurance. Okay, that would make sense if
they're looking at risk that is. Does that sound right, Paul?
Speaker 7 (39:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (39:46):
I think collectively we're right. Ish actuaries use math, statistics,
and financial theory to analyze economic risk and uncertainty, most
commonly in the insurance companies for risk tables going forward.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Okay, I think we got it. I think we did
better than Carl Ravage did and the Little League crew
when they were talking about it. Do you have a
worst of the weekend? No? No, two besters? Okay, that's great.
I saw these Paul Skeens numbers. These are historical numbers
(40:17):
that he's putting up. The live ball era in baseball
started nineteen twenty. The lowest RARA in the first fifty
starts for a pitcher in the history of the game
Vita Blue two point one. Second on the list is
Paul Skeenes two point two lowest era in the first
(40:38):
fifty starts of a career. How about the best whip,
the lowest whip in the first fifty starts in the
history of Major League Baseball. Paul Skeens is number one
highest strikeout rate. This is the first fifty starts of
a career. Uh Paul's schemes is in the top ten.
(41:04):
I mean, these are incredible numbers. He is the tenth
lowest batting average for the first fifty starts in the
history of the game. The slugging percentage against him is
the eighteenth lowest in baseball history. Remarkable, and he's a
(41:26):
five hundred pitcher. Well in record and this year while
he's playing for the Pirates, we'll talk some football. Rick
Neuheisel will stop by. Are we going to a twenty
four twenty eighteen playoff? Who's winning the SEC, Who's winning
the Big Ten? Find out next
