Dan and the Danettes contend that the start of college football marks the beginning of the Fall season, not some random meteorological date in mid-September. Dan thinks Cal Raleigh has a good chance at the AL MVP simply because Aaron Judge is too consistently good. And Seton tries to contextualize just how big Grimsby Town’s win over Manchester United was.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
The NFL is a week away.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I think the next forty eight hours are really important
for Micah Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys. For some reason,
I have no intel on this. I just get the
sense the next forty eight hours, maybe twenty four hours
are going to be really important on what's going to
happen for the Dallas Cowboys. Certainly that opening night a
week from tonight against the Philadelphia Eagles. So nice slate
(01:44):
of college football action coming up tonight for entertainment purposes only.
According to DraftKings, Boise State South Florida is spicy.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I like that. Let me see what else what I want?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Nebraska at Cincinnatira Esca getting six and a half, Boise
State getting five and a half at South Florida, Ohio
versus Rutgers because you do want to take advantage of
the New York market. Everybody, everybody wants to schedule Rutgers
so they can take advantage. I laughed at that when
when Rutgers joined the Big Ten and I read reports
(02:21):
where the Big Ten wanted to have the New York market,
and I said, there is no New York market for
college football. There's not, and it wouldn't be Rutgers if
it was. But they wanted to get the New York
We want to get in the New York market. We
want Rutgers because that great history of football with Rutgers football.
(02:42):
East Carolina in C State, that's a good rivalry. East
Carolina getting fourteen against in C State, I'll take the
Pirates there. Elon getting thirty three and a half at Duke. See,
I'm okay with that matchup with a first week because
you're not going across the country. Akron's playing Wyoming, Stonybrook
(03:05):
is playing San Diego State.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
That's ridiculous, Thank you, Todd.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Buffalo at Minnesota, Miami of Ohio getting seventeen and a
half at Wisconsin. Hey, it's football. We'll watch. And then
you have the games coming up this weekend.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
You have.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
You have the big one coming up with Ohio State.
Ohio State favored by one and a half and that
might be a pick him at game time. Let you
see Alabama favored by fourteen at Florida State, let me
see LSU plus three and a half at Clemson. But
that's a hammer to come out of the box. Who
(03:46):
Notre Dame minus two and a half at Miami. So
a lot of interesting matchups here. And you don't say
must win situation because it feels like now with twelve
teams in the play like you can afford two losses
and still make the playoffs here.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
And if you're looking at strength to schedule, if.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You do lose a game, did you lose a game
on the road and how much did you lose by?
But nice slate, Nice slate of college football games coming out.
Let's see Seeton got a poll question for the first
hour of the program.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Heck, yeah we do. I'm just putting this one up
there right now. The first day of fall is dot
dot dot September first, the first day of college football,
or with an eye roll, September twenty second, September twenty.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yet, well, Todd, being the guy who graduated second in
his class in high school, he would probably say it
be September twenty first or twenty second time.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Yeah, you got to go based on the moon and
the stars and the galaxy is the way it all
lines up. To the thing.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Okay, from a non sports standpoint, I think it's the
beginning of September. I think that's that's fair to say
September on first, that's when fall starts, yes, Paul.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
Yeah, Dan, that's a correct answer because you understand fall
and football. Back when the uh the equinox was built
or the lunar calendar, they didn't have foliage, they didn't
have college football.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
They didn't know.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
I don't blame them.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
So are we saying the start of the fall is
today or the first well, it's floaty these are there
two different options in the poll question? Yeah, but the
first day of college football or September first?
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Okay, I think you have to base it on temperature
in the Midwest East coast and you woke up today
and was about fifty three degrees. That's football, right, that's
football with it. But I would say September first, because
we had football last week and we didn't say it
was fall. I think, let's, you know, make it clean.
(05:47):
It's September first, it's fall.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I hit fifty five last week while you were in Maine.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Mm hm, as did I. That's why I'm saying September first.
But I do think we're getting to football weather? It's crisp, Crisp, Yes, Tom,
what about the.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
Thought of Labor Day or the end of the Labor
Day weekend that's the official end of summer slash starught
of fall. A lot of people kind of recognize at school, Well.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
You already committed to September twenty second?
Speaker 5 (06:16):
Did I commit to it? I was just giving the
argument towards those who think that it would be September.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Twenty We're not. We're not going to wrestle.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
I've always looked at it as once the Labor Day
weekend is a wrap that was your last shot at
doing something by the beach or whatever, and now it's
fall and deal with.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It, which kind of, you know, leads into September first.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
Because a fall out of September first.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Though, that's almost if I just heard Todd say the
word equinox switch.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
I'd never said, Paul, he said equal to tell. That's
a tell. Yeah, I said the stars and the moon
and the yelly.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
You said, clearly the word autunnel equinus.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Okay, okay, any other any other we can ask Chris
Fowler when he joins it.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
Yes, I have another question, how much do you dive
into all these games tonight and today Thursday? Being that,
do you need to pace yourself with the amount of
college football NFL we're going to consume. Do you dive
right into it today or you take a little peek
at a couple of games?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
What are you going to do?
Speaker 5 (07:08):
I'm going to take a peek at a few different games.
I'm not going to be like all wall to wall
seven o'clock till midnight watching is five hours of college
foot Well, that's being honest, and I'm a big sports fan.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
What else will you be doing?
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I will probably watch Will Fortune and Jeopardy. I will
see if you know any one of those network shows
that catches my eye. You know, Dateline, a Rear, date Line,
forensic vials, I'm big on on ce itn.
Speaker 6 (07:32):
Yeah, Paul, you could do that in late July, that's true,
you can do that in early August.
Speaker 5 (07:37):
I don't want to get burnt out. I gotta pace
myself now.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Watching football all night is exactly what you should be doing,
mostly because we work here, but also because it's awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Yeah, I mean, this is college football and there's a
lot to sample. I think there's a game that starts
at five thirty Eastern.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I'm like, okay, sure, early bird special. I'm fine with that,
all right, eight seven to seven to three DP show
email address Dpatdanpatrick dot com, Twitter handled at DP shows
Chris Fowler ABC, ESPN College Football and tennis announcer will
join us coming up. Inter Out will play Interer Out,
(08:15):
and the Chiefs are getting Richie Rice back. You might
forget how dangerous and good he was. He got a
six game suspension, and I think they said he accepted
a six game suspension. They I think he realized it
could be a whole lot worse with the six game suspension.
(08:37):
Terry McLaurin back at the Commander's practice as well, and
Shohyutani pitched five innings. He had nine strikeounts, he got
the win. But the pitcher that I have been watching
his name is Nolan McClain. He allowed four hits over
eight shutout innings and the Mets had to win against
(08:59):
the Phillies. This guy has got like breaking ball stuff
that is wicked, as the kids like to say, filthy.
He has twenty one strikeounts and I'm curious how many
are by swinging because it feels like when he throws
it and these guys they got no chance. His first
(09:21):
three starts, his era is one point nine. Oh actually
it's zero point eight nine after last night, zero point
eight nine. It breaks Tom Severs franchise record set in
nineteen sixty seven. Stat of the Day brought to you
(09:49):
by Panini America. You watch this kid with his breaking ball.
It's wicked, it is, and it's always in the dirt.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
That's one of those that's coming right here, and then
zoom goes down in a way, and I'm trying to
think who has a breaking ball? A right handed pitcher,
who has something that's that sharp. John Smoltz had the
best stuff on the Brave staff. It wasn't the best picture,
but he had the best stuff. But I'm talking about
(10:17):
one of those breaking balls that is just a sharp dive.
It's one of those where you know, sometimes you get
on the highway and somebody will be in the right
lane and all of a sudden they want to go
over three lanes to get into the hov lane.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
That's what it feels like.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
It's just that kind of zip, breaking ball and nasty
and it's down and those are hard to lay off
of because they're meant to look enticing. They're meant to
look like, man, that's coming right down Main Street. I
am gonna hop on. Well, wait where to go? And
it's in the dirt.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
Yeah, Paul, we got to check this kid out for
the Mets. He's twenty, just turn twenty four. He was
draft out of Oklahoma State University. He's got twenty one strikeouts,
four walks.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Man, we need to find out how many are swing
and miss strikeouts Jacky, because I'm going to guest three
fourths of his strikeouts are probably swinging miss.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Yes, Ton, can you call him the ball break or
is that safe? Is that not family friendly? For you know,
we always like the little nicknames.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
For our players and we can work shop that.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I don't think it's terrible, but thanks Ton, Brian and Milwaukee,
Hi Brian, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7 (11:20):
Good morning guys, just hearing your talk about fall. Meteorologists
here in the Milwaukee area, and as much as I
like to back Fritzy a lot of times, astronomically fall
begins the twenty first.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
September.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
First, it's we're closing the books June, July and August here,
so there's summer, September, October, November.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Thank you, thank you Bright.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I think his signal is falling.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Did you agree with us at the beginning of September.
I think that it wasn't the the umn equinunx Hunt.
Speaker 5 (12:01):
Yeah, it sounds like he's saying June, July, August, those
are your summer months. In the beginning of September or
septemberc till November, that's your your fall, so it should
be the beginning of September.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Yeah, I'm fine with that.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah, football season feels different at the school, all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
It's all happening right now.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
I know.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I never had a book bag when I was in
grade school, high school.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
You just made all the nerds carry your books for you.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
No.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
I never brought any books home. You know.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
My mom would say, why don't you bring books home? Danny,
I go, I did you know all the I'd study
study hall and I didn't study and study hall. But
I don't know when book bags became important there, like
you had to have an even a lunch box. Like
I had a paper bag and uh, and then I
had to bring it home because my mom would say, hey,
(12:49):
don't throw it away. You're gonna use it again tomorrow.
I go, okay. You know it had like food stains
in it didn't matter. My mom would just say bring
it home, Danny. I'm like, okay, all right. But I
never had a book bag or a lunchbox.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Yes, Ton, not to brag, but my lunchbox had all
the AFC helmets on one side, all the NFC on
the other. This was before the Seahawks and Buccaneers joined
the league, like in seventy five seventy six, an NFL thermos.
I thought I was pretty important. They were in the
lunch room.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Yeah, but you grew up with a you know, a
silver spoon in your mouth.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I didn't just have the slice of thin slice of
balloon and I had. I had the devil Dogs and
the ring Dings and the Yodels, the Tweaky's, and the
pie sandwich with at least three pieces of meat on
my wonder brain.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
And what's interesting is you have the same diet.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
I absolutely do. I can't argue about it at all.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Marvin, did you have a backpack when you were in
high school?
Speaker 8 (13:38):
In high school, yeah, just a regular black jaz sport.
But an elementary school had the ultimate Warrior book bag man.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yo.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Okay, Seaton, what about you? Did I have a backpack? Yeah?
Or did you have a lunchbox? Uh?
Speaker 4 (13:52):
I had a Duke's of Hazard lunchbox. At some point
I had a Gi Joe lunchbox as well. I think,
let's see but that I had a trapper keeper one
year and then I really settled into.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Backpack culture for sure. I had a backpack.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Guy.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
I think I just started using a backpack the last year.
Finally got around to it, and I'm like, damn, where's
just spend all my life? Matter of fact, I'm still
a backpack h Yeah. When we go on the road, now,
you know, I take the backpack. Yeah it's the best.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Yeah, it's pretty good.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
PAULI as a kid, evil Knievel, lunchbox, trapper keeper like Seaton.
In high school, we didn't have the backpacks yet. I
was like you, I just didn't bring books home. I
hate to admit it, but I just didn't.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Well it wasn't for books.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Yeah, I carried one every day with books.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
I used to bring donuts to school and leave them
in my locker and people used to come over and
have munchkins. That's all I brought to school, no books,
just munchkins.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
You guys grew up with a silver spoon, man, I got.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I got nothing such luxuries.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yes, hey, that was status back then, because I'd walk
into the lunch room and no one wanted to exchange
anything in my lunch bag.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
No one. It was an apple.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Maybe maybe you'd get one of those little pudding things,
and then you would get a piece of white bread,
and you would get boloney, and then a slice of
American cheese. That was it, and then you would get
white or chocolate milk. That was every day, Yes, Todd.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
Did anyone ever make fun of you or points like, haha,
I got this. Did they tease you or they pretended.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Just you right now? Yes, thank you.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
I don't know if they just kind of don't look
over there and make him feel there he's got that
little piece of blowney again with the apple.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Don't look if you, but I would, and I stopped
doing this because I was envious, like there was lunch
envy on my part, and I would just watch people.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
I go they got hostess, ho, hos.
Speaker 9 (15:56):
Man, that looks good.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
What kind of sandwich you out there? I don't know.
I think it's roast beef. I think, uh, what kind
of kind of dessert you got there? I don't know
it's I think it's a pumpkin pie or something. I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
Yeah, yeah, the uh. I remember in like the lunch room,
Carrata Scana used to bring in a bagel with cream cheese,
and it was like she brought a caviaar the way
that me and like these two other dudes fought over
it like every day because she never ate it, and
we'd be like, oh my gosh, dude, a bagel and
cream cheese, the best of the world.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
I was embarrassed at lunch, I really was.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
And then my mom one day says, well, why don't
you buy your lunch? And then I go, oh my god,
this is awesome. You get tater tots and a dry
piece of pizza, and man, this is awesome. Like I
was proud to sit down because I got look at this.
I had tater tots, Yes.
Speaker 8 (16:54):
The square piece of pizza. Yes, Shepherd's pile on Wednesdays. Yeah,
even the lunch ladies were surprised. We're like, oh, you're
getting a hot lunch today. I go, yeah, my mom
gave me two fifty or whatever it was.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Happy birthday.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah, all right, let me take a break. It is
an anniversary for Todd. We'll have that for you. Coming up,
we'll get phone calls Chris Faller in an hour from now,
the final appearance on Leek Corso on college game Day.
We'll talk to Chris about that. When game day started,
there wasn't a lot of fanfare at the mother Ship.
(17:29):
In fact, they were really cautious about would anybody show
up when they went on campus because you had Chris Faller,
coach Corso, Kirk kurb Street, and they didn't know if
anybody would show up on campus. Now now it's a
foregone conclusion. Thousands and thousands will show up. But we'll
talk to Chris coming up. Take a break back after this.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Getting started here. Settle on a pole question, get some
phone calls in there as well. Five years ago today,
Todd had the unfortunate moment of going through a drive
through and he wanted an onion bagel with cream cheese,
and a local chain store did not have it. And
a poor high school girl just caught the brunt of
(19:23):
Todd Fritz. We did have a listener who arranged for
thirteen onion bagels with cream cheese today.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Very thoughtful.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Yeah, now Todd's nervous because Todd doesn't know if he
should have these bagels.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
I will preface my comments by saying I had a
half a bagel from that bag with cream cheese. However,
I wanted to make sure I wasn't the first one
to have it, because you know, an anonymous person or
maybe not anonymous. They did put a name to it.
But still, if someone's sending food, you know, my first reaction, unfortunately,
because I grew up in a very neurotic household, is like,
how do you know? I grew up in the tailand
hall cyanide era. You know, is someone going to try
to kill us all off? I don't know where it's
(20:00):
coming from. Maybe they're they're trying to think it's a
nice gesture, but maybe they're not fans of the show
so much, and so you know, there's some crazy people,
sick people in the world. So I was like, I
was hesitant to eat it, but I smelled that onion
bagel bag and I'm like, you know.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
I'll take my chances.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
But I told Todd, if you're going to die, it's
not a bad way to go. Onion bagel, cream cheese.
Speaker 5 (20:20):
See she's on your nose and on the side of you.
Look there, you're one of your favorite things. That's that's
how you do it.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah, we were going to bring back a clip, but
it's eight minutes long that Todd just went into this
diatribe about how he could not believe that they didn't
have onion bagels at this place, and this poor girl
in the drive through and you're berating her.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
That's what set me up. Though she didn't share you,
especially at least pretend because the customer was always right.
She didn't seem to be that caring of my situation.
How passionate I was about, you don't have onion bagels,
you don't have tune of fish. You know, well, I
know it was later in the day and you start
running out of a certain things.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
How could she care? Possibly care as much as you care?
Speaker 5 (20:58):
They true, maybe not as much, but they train you're
supposed to train people to, you know, if the customer
is passionate about something, you know, act like you care.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Look, Okay, how much experience do you have in fast food.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
As far as eating it? A lot? As far as
working at a fast food place, I have not done.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
You've never done that.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
I have not worked.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
How would you do?
Speaker 5 (21:16):
I would do terribly because I know I'm not very
good with my hands.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Or no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
If I went through If I just went through the
drive through and I asked for something and you didn't
have it, and then all of a sudden, I'm berating you.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
I would probably first I feel really bad, and I'd
get nervous about the situations because I want to make
the customer happy. And then I'd go to the manager.
Is there any way we can quickly make a couple
of onion bagels and whip up a batch of tun officio?
This person really wants that. I know we're closing in
fifteen minutes, but you think there's any way we can
help this kid out. This guy's really.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Don't you think they would have made onion bagels? If
they had onion bagels there?
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I knew in the back of my mind that at
this time of the day, which was like a quarter
two in the afternoon, I think they closed there too.
You run out of certain bagels. What set me off
was they didn't have onion bagels, and they didn't have
tuna either. I thought, at least have one of them.
I was really I had a craving for a tu
on an onion bagel, as weird as that might sound,
and they didn't have either. And she seemed like she
couldn't get out of there fast enough. She could care
(22:08):
less that her shift was ending, and you know, to
drive through plays next. Okay, That's how I felt at
that moment. I was really hungry. I had eaton all
day and she got the wrath of that a little.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah, but but not eating up until then is your choice.
That's not her choice, true, but it made me extra groucy.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
Yes, Marvin, I am completely against Fritzy now that I've
heard that he wanted these bagels at a quarter to
two in the afternoon. Those bagel shops are done at
two o'clock in the afternoon. If he said it right
before he got here, six o'clock, seven o'clock, eight o'clock.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
I'd be with him. But after this, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
That is ridiculous.
Speaker 8 (22:46):
Two o'clock and you're upset that there's no bagels left
those bagels are done by eleven, and.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
I proceed to ask for a second or third or
fourth trust and have any of those either, which definitely
made the matter even worry. I'm like, what, I'll tell
you what? Why wy don't you tell them what you
do have? And we'll go from there. And then it
just became like a wise ass.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
See, it's an unfortunate situation when Todd's cravings in the
middle of the day are not lining up with the
local business hours.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
Sir, I don't know what to tell you. I'm sorry,
we don't have any on you. Listen, I need to
know what you do have. You're closing in like four
minutes here, and I'm very hungry. You don't have the
Nantucket nectar apple juice either that I like, But that's
besides the point. What bagels do you have? And then
I'll pick one of those? Said, I mean, just rattling
off names for you to tell me. No, I'm sorry
we don't have that either.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
You could have gone inside.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
That would require me parking and walking the ten steps
into the bill. You know, it was a hot day out.
I'm not doing that.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
But my music on this is exactly the way that
person wanted to end their day.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Yeah, so you imagine poor girl.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Now you ever walk into a restaurant like fifteen minutes
before the closing the eye, Uh, everybody looks at you like, yeah, yeah,
I'm definitely spinning in your food.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Definitely go in for last call. Yeah, and then they
know that you're there. They're closing in sixteen minutes. I
have a baked Alaska.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
It's gonna take us forty five minutes.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Jesus H anniversary, Todd, Thanks, we have a lemon poppy.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
A donut shop.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
She was rattling off names that would be more like
a donut dat. Have you gone back?
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Of course I've gone back because it's convenient and it's near.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Whe Did you apologize to this girl?
Speaker 4 (24:22):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I think she may have quit. I think whatever I
did a number on her. I never saw her ever again.
She either did a different shift or she said I
don't think this is for me. I quit. I don't
need the job right there?
Speaker 3 (24:31):
All right, Well, do you want to mention the listener?
Speaker 5 (24:34):
It was Jeff something. That's how sensitive I am an
appreciative I have. I didn't get to catch the last name,
but I know it's on the piece of paper in
the in the back there on a low re seat.
But that was very nice, but didn't say where it
is from. There was no phone number, just the name
of the bagel company and Jeff something, but thank you. Jeff.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Dave in Cincinnati, Hi Dave, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Hey Damn?
Speaker 12 (24:54):
How you doing?
Speaker 11 (24:54):
So?
Speaker 12 (24:55):
This is calling about the False SOULSAE thing. I know
you're kind of familiar with the area. But every year
local radio station WBN they put on this risy fireworks
festival things. The last is about forty five minutes. It's
called the Boom of the Fall, but usually when that's over,
that signifies the day of fall.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Well that's only in Cincinnati, but the rest of the country.
I'm trying to help everybody understand. September first is the
official start of fall, and then we could do December
first for the start of winter. Lucas in Texas. Hi Luke,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 13 (25:34):
Good morning morning. A couple of quick quick points and
then a question for you. First off, yesterday's conversation was
about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. I'm sorry they're both
a little They've got fancy case that wedding screens Lake Como,
Italy to me. But when it comes to the start
of fall, I agree with PAULI football equals fall. Fall
(25:57):
equals football, and for me, whenever everybody's playing, and that
includes the NFL, I've always thought that that Thursday night
really does feel like Okay, we're back in the rhythm. Everyone,
we know the season, we know the days and whatnot.
It feels like fall, particularly whenever the NFL kicks off,
because everyone else is up and running at that point too,
high school and college. And that leads me to my question,
(26:19):
but especially with this kickoff coming up. I did listen
to the Dan Patrick Takes a Gamble podcast episode last
week and it sounds like you're considering my proposal of
watching a game with one Shae and Irving. So my
only question, it's really simple, when's next year's any ceremony?
And do I get a plus one?
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Well, I can't invite you if we just get nominated.
So we've been nominated what six times? But I don't
think this would put us over the top that I'm
watching a cowboy game with Shane Irving. But thank you
Lucas for the suggestion. I'll bring it up to Shae.
We're going to do the podcast later on Today. Dan
Patrick takes a gamble tome in North Carolina. Hi, Tom,
(27:02):
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Hey?
Speaker 14 (27:05):
DP, I got some possible breaking news, but I also
wanted to go over the backpack etiquette. Marvin had mentioned earlier.
You know, he had a Ultimate Warrior backpack in grade school,
and you have that with two shoulders. You carried the
backpack all the way through elementary school with the two shoulders,
but maybe about midway through junior high school you put
(27:26):
it over to the one shoulder. Now, the guys that
were carrying the two on the two shoulders, they were
made made not as school or whatever like that, or
they had they still have you know, uh, some G I.
Joe or whatever on their on their backpack.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Now.
Speaker 14 (27:40):
The second the second breaking news, and I possibly need
a second source, possibly poly the second source on it.
But I was informed yesterday that one Bill Belichick and
his girlfriend are actually applying for a patent for the
name gold Digger to start her jewelry line.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Yep, I saw that. I saw where they had applied
for the patent. I don't know if it's true or not,
but they applied for the patent. A lot of stories
about Bill Belichick and his girlfriend going around. We would
need a second and probably third source on some of those.
Let's see Mike and Hollywood. Hi Mike, what's on your
(28:21):
mind today?
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Morning? Dan?
Speaker 15 (28:24):
Thanks for taking my call. Yeah, I got a quick
story for you and the guys just wanted to get
your take on it. Last week, Marvin was talking about
wearing a Pirate hat and he's not a Pirates fan.
I have a shirt for Wrigley Field. I'm a Dodger fan.
Wriggley's Hollow Ground. It's a historic site. A couple of
weeks Ageter, We're taking my son to college in the
Midwest and I'm getting on the plane. You know, you're
(28:47):
milling down the aisle. Woman in the seat seeing my shirt,
she gets all excited and nudges her husband. He looks
up and he starts chatting me up about the Cubs. Oh,
you know it's rough right now? You think we stand
a chance we're gonna make the playoffs?
Speaker 5 (29:01):
Oh?
Speaker 15 (29:02):
We got on the plane we were losing. What do
you think you think we're gonna win? I did not
have the heart dand to tell this guy that I
was not a Cubs fan. I don't know what to do,
so I just start chatting them up about the Cubs.
I'm like, well, you know, PCA looks real good and uh,
you know, I mean August is tough on a lot
of teams, a lot of injuries, and gosh, I hope
(29:23):
we fly to w.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
You know, I'm fine with that, Mike, I'm fine with that.
You know, you're neutral played to the Home Crown.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
It's okay.
Speaker 9 (29:32):
You know.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Marvin's got Montreal Expos hat on today. He'll wear Toronto
Blue Jay's hat, Pirates hat. He's not a fan of
any of those teams. Yes, Marvin, I'm sorry everyone. I
need a shirt that just says maybe you can make it.
I need a shirt that says I don't like this team.
I just like the heck.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
I lie to people all the time, and the best
way to do it is if the bullpen gets it together,
you say something about the bullpen.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
You're there.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Jeff Doraley bought the begels for Fritzie. I just got
the information from weeks our cameraman, Jeffey Jeff do Rally. Yeah,
Jeff de Rally. Five year anniversary of the Drive through
Bagel situation. Tim in Iowa, Hi, Tim, what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (30:20):
One DP?
Speaker 9 (30:20):
How are we doing it?
Speaker 5 (30:21):
Great?
Speaker 16 (30:23):
Good buddy? Hey in the world about what about ISM's
a salty Braves fan here. You're talking about that picture
for the Mets earlier. But the Braves have Herston Waldrip
who's come up and through four games is four and
oh with twenty four strikeouts, So just a little bit
better than that Mets pitcher.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
It's all.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
It's all I got to say.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
I hope you all have a great guest.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Thank you, Tim. I guess that's the East Coast bias
in me with Nolan McClain. I can only tell you
about Nolan McClain because I saw him pitch and he
has struck out twenty one batters. Fourteen of the twenty
one have come by swinging. And hey, I'm all four pitching.
Otani went five innings. I'm all for that. That's great.
(31:10):
I'm sure that his MVP odds went up even higher
when he had this outing there. But we do have
a race in the American League. Cal Rawly I think
is a slight favorite over Aaron Judge. Now I do
have a problem when it's voter fatigue. And I voted
on MVP awards, I voted on Rookie of the Year,
I voted on all of that. But we get to
(31:32):
the point where we've done this. We did this with Joker,
did it with Giannis. You know, you get to that, Ah, well,
they've already won a couple. Or let's say, let's say
you're a news director or your editor says, hey, why
don't you go do a feature on Aaron Judge?
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Well, what's the angle? Now?
Speaker 4 (31:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I mean he's hitting, he's hitting high average and a
lot of home runs, and we've done that one before.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
All right, Well what about cal Rawley? Yeah, the big dumper.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Yeah, that's something new, something fresh, it's exciting. Well, I mean,
people are human. What can you say about Aaron Judge? Now,
if you said Sports Illustrated, if Sports Illustrated back when
it was Sports Illustrated really meant something, they would have
cal Rawley on the cover, not Aaron Judge. Now you
(32:30):
would say, the New York market you want that. But
cal Rawley is a better story. Doesn't mean that he
should be the MVP because he's a better story. But
I do believe voter fatigue happens. I think you had
that with Joker. I think you've had that before with
players where what else can we say about this gun? Yeah,
it's just it's sometimes challenging to get people to look
(32:55):
deeper into that same player. Because Joker is better now
than he was. He had his best season, but it
felt like there was voter fatigue. Shay gilgis Alexander, Hey,
let's introduce him to America.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Had a wonderful year.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
They won the NBA title, and he should feel very
proud to be able to pull that off. What he
did this year, great year. He wasn't a better basketball
player or more valuable in my opinion, than Joker was,
but it was a new story and I'm glad that
they did feature him, But we do get it. Just
like Joker lost out to Joe l Embiid and I went,
(33:32):
this is going to be a crime because Joe el
Embiid is nowhere near what Joker is just not.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
But it felt like, oh my god, we're going to
give it to Joker again.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I wasn't voting when Larry won I think three consecutive
MVPs Bird, But I don't know if there was voter
fatigue I think there was voter fatigue with Jordan. I
think that's why Charles won it. They he had a
great year, but the most valuable player in the game
was Michael Jordan. Karl Malone won a couple he wasn't
more valuable than Jordan. But voter fatigue does play a
(34:07):
role absolutely, Otani. I don't even if there's voter fatigue,
you'd really have to go out of your way to go. Yeah,
you know, I made a strong case for Kyle Schwarber. No,
I just want him in the MVP conversation, he's not
going to win it, And the same with you know,
cal rawling Is he better than Aaron Judge? No, but
(34:29):
is he more valuable than Aaron Judge and the Yankees
have to make the playoffs? You can make a legitimate case.
The catcher, one of the best catchers in the game,
has hit fifty home runs for a team that's in
the playoff hunt.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Now you can have.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
A legitimate conversation and you could do a big feature
on him now that novelty goes away next year if
he wins the MVP, and Aaron Judge would probably have
a better.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
Chance next year if that were the case. But Otani.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Otani's going to continue to win MVPs just because nobody can.
You know this kid McClain. He was at Oklahoma State
and he was a two way player. I think they
called him the because they're the Cowboys, the cowboy Otani
and I don't know if he's given any consideration to
trying to hit in the major leagues. Somebody's gonna do
it one of these days. Somebody's gonna go Otani and say,
(35:18):
I want to hit and I want to pitch, but
you better be really really good at one if they're
gonna let you do the other. Take a break. Play

Check this out.

Jordi Alba back to Scovia. Messi settles.

Actual play of the day.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Leonel Messi scores a late goal to help Enter Miami
advance to the League Cup Final. They will face Seattle
in the final coming up on Sunday. But that was
a meaningless story in the bigger world of soccer. Let's
go to our soccer reporter, Seat O'Connor.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
See, I don't know if any of you guys saw
the Grimsby Town game Manchester United.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Only only the result Grimsby Town. I didn't know of
a Grimsby Town, but Grimsby Town beat Manchester United.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
They did. Yeah, Grimsby Town is in the fourth tier
of English soccer.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Okay, as soccer, you know aficionados like to do. They
like to translate this so we novices can understand just
how big of an upset this was. Grimsby Town against
Manchester United would be akin to So, uh.
Speaker 4 (37:04):
Let's see, how do you do this where it's not
super insulting, Like if it's in a college football sense,
who's a team that's really big but it's kind of
down right now, Like uh, like okay, Florida State or
Florida or they're huge. Manchester United is a global brand.
They're one of the biggest, most iconic soccer teams of
all time. Okay, Grimsby Town is in the fourth tier,
(37:25):
so it would be like Alabama losing to like Middlesex
Community College. Oh, they're like, that's a little unfair to
Grimsby Town, but they're so much further down. Wrexham was
in the same league as Grimsby Town two years ago, maybe,
and they've been promoted three straight years, so they're, you know,
(37:46):
fourth tier. They're pretty far down there.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Would it be like the Kansas City Chiefs losing to
Akron Maybe maybe?
Speaker 4 (37:57):
Yeah. Yeah, it's tough because they it's it's a tough
comparison because we just don't have it set up that
way here, you know. Like so if you took a
Major league baseball team and they lost to a farm
system team, you know, that might be something comparable, but
we don't really have sports set up the same way.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Is this the greatest upset in professional soccer history? It's
definitely one of them, for sure. It's one of the
It's one of the biggest.
Speaker 4 (38:25):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Is this similar to Shamanad beating Virginia?
Speaker 4 (38:30):
Sure? Sure they you know, and it's crazy. The thing
that made it crazy too was that the game was
so good. Grimsby Town jumped out to a two nothing
lead and it was shocking, and then you spend the
rest of the time being like, God, can they just
hold on? Manchester United tied it in the last like
five minutes of the game, which then sent it to penalties.
Penalties sort of went back and forth a little bit.
(38:51):
Manchester United had the chance to win it, the Grimsby
town keeper saved it, sent it into the next round.
It was it was pretty in This is how.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
It sounded courtesy is CBS Sports Wamo.
Speaker 9 (39:04):
Has it been under that pressure yet? But now he
is he has to score another. Listen to the newise
should have Grisby fans.
Speaker 12 (39:22):
It babox truck, basic stars.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
It is bloodsto.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Awesome, awesome.
Speaker 4 (39:33):
That's a Manchester that had a chance to win it
with another penalty kick. The Gridsby town keeper saved it
and then that one Brian and Walmo hit it off
the crossbar, so they lost. And then after the game
everybody's going crazy. The Gridsby town keeper is getting interviewed
on TV after it and he said something along the
lines of I'm going to get it wrong a little bit.
But he was just like, well, I'm actually I'm half
(39:53):
pissed because I'm a Manchester United fan.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
So I just sent them packing or whatever. I just
sent my own team PA. That's great, that's great, and
it is awesome and Grimsby town. That's a seaside town.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
All I know about Grimsby Town is I think the
Germans drop bombs on Grimsby Town during World War Two
for some reason. That's the only thing I know about
Grimsby Town. But that's awesome that Manchester United goes to
Grimsby Town and you're playing in their facility. You know,
they're used to playing in front of you know, seventy
(40:32):
thousand or whatever, one hundred thousand, and then here they
are in Grimsby Town that seats ten grand Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
Blundell Park, I think it seats nine thousand. One of
the things that they do with these tournaments this was
like the League Cup or the Carabell Cup, is they
have the bigger teams go to the smaller teams, and
then the revenue that those smaller teams generate from just
these games helps keep them afloat for the whole year
because they're so small. And so you get these huge
(40:57):
teams like Manchester United playing in these tiny venues that
look like a shed. You know, it's just it's these
little places. The atmosphere is just spectacular.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
That's great, and a great call as well. Courtesy of
CBS Sports, all Right, one hour in the books. Chris

Speaker 3 (01:18):
The NFL is a week away.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I think the next forty eight hours are really important
for Micah Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys. For some reason,
I have no intel on this. I just get the
sense the next forty eight hours, maybe twenty four hours
are going to be really important on what's going to
happen for the Dallas Cowboys. Certainly that opening night a
week from tonight against the Philadelphia Eagles. So nice slate
(01:44):
of college football action coming up tonight for entertainment purposes only.
According to DraftKings, Boise State South Florida is spicy.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I like that. Let me see what else what I want?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Nebraska at Cincinnatira Esca getting six and a half, Boise
State getting five and a half at South Florida, Ohio
versus Rutgers because you do want to take advantage of
the New York market. Everybody, everybody wants to schedule Rutgers
so they can take advantage. I laughed at that when
when Rutgers joined the Big Ten and I read reports
(02:21):
where the Big Ten wanted to have the New York market,
and I said, there is no New York market for
college football. There's not, and it wouldn't be Rutgers if
it was. But they wanted to get the New York
We want to get in the New York market. We
want Rutgers because that great history of football with Rutgers football.
(02:42):
East Carolina in C State, that's a good rivalry. East
Carolina getting fourteen against in C State, I'll take the
Pirates there. Elon getting thirty three and a half at Duke. See,
I'm okay with that matchup with a first week because
you're not going across the country. Akron's playing Wyoming, Stonybrook
(03:05):
is playing San Diego State.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
That's ridiculous, Thank you, Todd.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Buffalo at Minnesota, Miami of Ohio getting seventeen and a
half at Wisconsin. Hey, it's football. We'll watch. And then
you have the games coming up this weekend.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
You have.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
You have the big one coming up with Ohio State.
Ohio State favored by one and a half and that
might be a pick him at game time. Let you
see Alabama favored by fourteen at Florida State, let me
see LSU plus three and a half at Clemson. But
that's a hammer to come out of the box. Who
(03:46):
Notre Dame minus two and a half at Miami. So
a lot of interesting matchups here. And you don't say
must win situation because it feels like now with twelve
teams in the play like you can afford two losses
and still make the playoffs here.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
And if you're looking at strength to schedule, if.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You do lose a game, did you lose a game
on the road and how much did you lose by?
But nice slate, Nice slate of college football games coming out.
Let's see Seeton got a poll question for the first
hour of the program.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Heck, yeah we do. I'm just putting this one up
there right now. The first day of fall is dot
dot dot September first, the first day of college football,
or with an eye roll, September twenty second, September twenty.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yet, well, Todd, being the guy who graduated second in
his class in high school, he would probably say it
be September twenty first or twenty second time.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Yeah, you got to go based on the moon and
the stars and the galaxy is the way it all
lines up. To the thing.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Okay, from a non sports standpoint, I think it's the
beginning of September. I think that's that's fair to say
September on first, that's when fall starts, yes, Paul.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
Yeah, Dan, that's a correct answer because you understand fall
and football. Back when the uh the equinox was built
or the lunar calendar, they didn't have foliage, they didn't
have college football.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
They didn't know.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
I don't blame them.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
So are we saying the start of the fall is
today or the first well, it's floaty these are there
two different options in the poll question? Yeah, but the
first day of college football or September first?
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Okay, I think you have to base it on temperature
in the Midwest East coast and you woke up today
and was about fifty three degrees. That's football, right, that's
football with it. But I would say September first, because
we had football last week and we didn't say it
was fall. I think, let's, you know, make it clean.
(05:47):
It's September first, it's fall.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I hit fifty five last week while you were in Maine.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Mm hm, as did I. That's why I'm saying September first.
But I do think we're getting to football weather? It's crisp, Crisp, Yes, Tom,
what about the.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
Thought of Labor Day or the end of the Labor
Day weekend that's the official end of summer slash starught
of fall. A lot of people kind of recognize at school, Well.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
You already committed to September twenty second?
Speaker 5 (06:16):
Did I commit to it? I was just giving the
argument towards those who think that it would be September.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Twenty We're not. We're not going to wrestle.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
I've always looked at it as once the Labor Day
weekend is a wrap that was your last shot at
doing something by the beach or whatever, and now it's
fall and deal with.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It, which kind of, you know, leads into September first.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
Because a fall out of September first.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Though, that's almost if I just heard Todd say the
word equinox switch.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
I'd never said, Paul, he said equal to tell. That's
a tell. Yeah, I said the stars and the moon
and the yelly.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
You said, clearly the word autunnel equinus.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Okay, okay, any other any other we can ask Chris
Fowler when he joins it.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
Yes, I have another question, how much do you dive
into all these games tonight and today Thursday? Being that,
do you need to pace yourself with the amount of
college football NFL we're going to consume. Do you dive
right into it today or you take a little peek
at a couple of games?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
What are you going to do?
Speaker 5 (07:08):
I'm going to take a peek at a few different games.
I'm not going to be like all wall to wall
seven o'clock till midnight watching is five hours of college
foot Well, that's being honest, and I'm a big sports fan.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
What else will you be doing?
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I will probably watch Will Fortune and Jeopardy. I will
see if you know any one of those network shows
that catches my eye. You know, Dateline, a Rear, date Line,
forensic vials, I'm big on on ce itn.
Speaker 6 (07:32):
Yeah, Paul, you could do that in late July, that's true,
you can do that in early August.
Speaker 5 (07:37):
I don't want to get burnt out. I gotta pace
myself now.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Watching football all night is exactly what you should be doing,
mostly because we work here, but also because it's awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Yeah, I mean, this is college football and there's a
lot to sample. I think there's a game that starts
at five thirty Eastern.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I'm like, okay, sure, early bird special. I'm fine with that,
all right, eight seven to seven to three DP show
email address Dpatdanpatrick dot com, Twitter handled at DP shows
Chris Fowler ABC, ESPN College Football and tennis announcer will
join us coming up. Inter Out will play Interer Out,
(08:15):
and the Chiefs are getting Richie Rice back. You might
forget how dangerous and good he was. He got a
six game suspension, and I think they said he accepted
a six game suspension. They I think he realized it
could be a whole lot worse with the six game suspension.
(08:37):
Terry McLaurin back at the Commander's practice as well, and
Shohyutani pitched five innings. He had nine strikeounts, he got
the win. But the pitcher that I have been watching
his name is Nolan McClain. He allowed four hits over
eight shutout innings and the Mets had to win against
(08:59):
the Phillies. This guy has got like breaking ball stuff
that is wicked, as the kids like to say, filthy.
He has twenty one strikeounts and I'm curious how many
are by swinging because it feels like when he throws
it and these guys they got no chance. His first
(09:21):
three starts, his era is one point nine. Oh actually
it's zero point eight nine after last night, zero point
eight nine. It breaks Tom Severs franchise record set in
nineteen sixty seven. Stat of the Day brought to you
(09:49):
by Panini America. You watch this kid with his breaking ball.
It's wicked, it is, and it's always in the dirt.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
That's one of those that's coming right here, and then
zoom goes down in a way, and I'm trying to
think who has a breaking ball? A right handed pitcher,
who has something that's that sharp. John Smoltz had the
best stuff on the Brave staff. It wasn't the best picture,
but he had the best stuff. But I'm talking about
(10:17):
one of those breaking balls that is just a sharp dive.
It's one of those where you know, sometimes you get
on the highway and somebody will be in the right
lane and all of a sudden they want to go
over three lanes to get into the hov lane.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
That's what it feels like.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
It's just that kind of zip, breaking ball and nasty
and it's down and those are hard to lay off
of because they're meant to look enticing. They're meant to
look like, man, that's coming right down Main Street. I
am gonna hop on. Well, wait where to go? And
it's in the dirt.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
Yeah, Paul, we got to check this kid out for
the Mets. He's twenty, just turn twenty four. He was
draft out of Oklahoma State University. He's got twenty one strikeouts,
four walks.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Man, we need to find out how many are swing
and miss strikeouts Jacky, because I'm going to guest three
fourths of his strikeouts are probably swinging miss.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Yes, Ton, can you call him the ball break or
is that safe? Is that not family friendly? For you know,
we always like the little nicknames.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
For our players and we can work shop that.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I don't think it's terrible, but thanks Ton, Brian and Milwaukee,
Hi Brian, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7 (11:20):
Good morning guys, just hearing your talk about fall. Meteorologists
here in the Milwaukee area, and as much as I
like to back Fritzy a lot of times, astronomically fall
begins the twenty first.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
September.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
First, it's we're closing the books June, July and August here,
so there's summer, September, October, November.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Thank you, thank you Bright.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I think his signal is falling.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Did you agree with us at the beginning of September.
I think that it wasn't the the umn equinunx Hunt.
Speaker 5 (12:01):
Yeah, it sounds like he's saying June, July, August, those
are your summer months. In the beginning of September or
septemberc till November, that's your your fall, so it should
be the beginning of September.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Yeah, I'm fine with that.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Yeah, football season feels different at the school, all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
It's all happening right now.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
I know.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I never had a book bag when I was in
grade school, high school.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
You just made all the nerds carry your books for you.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
No.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
I never brought any books home. You know.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
My mom would say, why don't you bring books home? Danny,
I go, I did you know all the I'd study
study hall and I didn't study and study hall. But
I don't know when book bags became important there, like
you had to have an even a lunch box. Like
I had a paper bag and uh, and then I
had to bring it home because my mom would say, hey,
(12:49):
don't throw it away. You're gonna use it again tomorrow.
I go, okay. You know it had like food stains
in it didn't matter. My mom would just say bring
it home, Danny. I'm like, okay, all right. But I
never had a book bag or a lunchbox.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Yes, Ton, not to brag, but my lunchbox had all
the AFC helmets on one side, all the NFC on
the other. This was before the Seahawks and Buccaneers joined
the league, like in seventy five seventy six, an NFL thermos.
I thought I was pretty important. They were in the
lunch room.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Yeah, but you grew up with a you know, a
silver spoon in your mouth.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I didn't just have the slice of thin slice of
balloon and I had. I had the devil Dogs and
the ring Dings and the Yodels, the Tweaky's, and the
pie sandwich with at least three pieces of meat on
my wonder brain.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
And what's interesting is you have the same diet.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
I absolutely do. I can't argue about it at all.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Marvin, did you have a backpack when you were in
high school?
Speaker 8 (13:38):
In high school, yeah, just a regular black jaz sport.
But an elementary school had the ultimate Warrior book bag man.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yo.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Okay, Seaton, what about you? Did I have a backpack? Yeah?
Or did you have a lunchbox? Uh?
Speaker 4 (13:52):
I had a Duke's of Hazard lunchbox. At some point
I had a Gi Joe lunchbox as well. I think,
let's see but that I had a trapper keeper one
year and then I really settled into.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Backpack culture for sure. I had a backpack.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Guy.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
I think I just started using a backpack the last year.
Finally got around to it, and I'm like, damn, where's
just spend all my life? Matter of fact, I'm still
a backpack h Yeah. When we go on the road, now,
you know, I take the backpack. Yeah it's the best.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Yeah, it's pretty good.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
PAULI as a kid, evil Knievel, lunchbox, trapper keeper like Seaton.
In high school, we didn't have the backpacks yet. I
was like you, I just didn't bring books home. I
hate to admit it, but I just didn't.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Well it wasn't for books.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Yeah, I carried one every day with books.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
I used to bring donuts to school and leave them
in my locker and people used to come over and
have munchkins. That's all I brought to school, no books,
just munchkins.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
You guys grew up with a silver spoon, man, I got.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I got nothing such luxuries.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yes, hey, that was status back then, because I'd walk
into the lunch room and no one wanted to exchange
anything in my lunch bag.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
No one. It was an apple.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Maybe maybe you'd get one of those little pudding things,
and then you would get a piece of white bread,
and you would get boloney, and then a slice of
American cheese. That was it, and then you would get
white or chocolate milk. That was every day, Yes, Todd.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
Did anyone ever make fun of you or points like, haha,
I got this. Did they tease you or they pretended.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Just you right now? Yes, thank you.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
I don't know if they just kind of don't look
over there and make him feel there he's got that
little piece of blowney again with the apple.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Don't look if you, but I would, and I stopped
doing this because I was envious, like there was lunch
envy on my part, and I would just watch people.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
I go they got hostess, ho, hos.
Speaker 9 (15:56):
Man, that looks good.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
What kind of sandwich you out there? I don't know.
I think it's roast beef. I think, uh, what kind
of kind of dessert you got there? I don't know
it's I think it's a pumpkin pie or something. I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
Yeah, yeah, the uh. I remember in like the lunch room,
Carrata Scana used to bring in a bagel with cream cheese,
and it was like she brought a caviaar the way
that me and like these two other dudes fought over
it like every day because she never ate it, and
we'd be like, oh my gosh, dude, a bagel and
cream cheese, the best of the world.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
I was embarrassed at lunch, I really was.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
And then my mom one day says, well, why don't
you buy your lunch? And then I go, oh my god,
this is awesome. You get tater tots and a dry
piece of pizza, and man, this is awesome. Like I
was proud to sit down because I got look at this.
I had tater tots, Yes.
Speaker 8 (16:54):
The square piece of pizza. Yes, Shepherd's pile on Wednesdays. Yeah,
even the lunch ladies were surprised. We're like, oh, you're
getting a hot lunch today. I go, yeah, my mom
gave me two fifty or whatever it was.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Happy birthday.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Yeah, all right, let me take a break. It is
an anniversary for Todd. We'll have that for you. Coming up,
we'll get phone calls Chris Faller in an hour from now,
the final appearance on Leek Corso on college game Day.
We'll talk to Chris about that. When game day started,
there wasn't a lot of fanfare at the mother Ship.
(17:29):
In fact, they were really cautious about would anybody show
up when they went on campus because you had Chris Faller,
coach Corso, Kirk kurb Street, and they didn't know if
anybody would show up on campus. Now now it's a
foregone conclusion. Thousands and thousands will show up. But we'll
talk to Chris coming up. Take a break back after this.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Getting started here. Settle on a pole question, get some
phone calls in there as well. Five years ago today,
Todd had the unfortunate moment of going through a drive
through and he wanted an onion bagel with cream cheese,
and a local chain store did not have it. And
a poor high school girl just caught the brunt of
(19:23):
Todd Fritz. We did have a listener who arranged for
thirteen onion bagels with cream cheese today.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
Very thoughtful.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Yeah, now Todd's nervous because Todd doesn't know if he
should have these bagels.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
I will preface my comments by saying I had a
half a bagel from that bag with cream cheese. However,
I wanted to make sure I wasn't the first one
to have it, because you know, an anonymous person or
maybe not anonymous. They did put a name to it.
But still, if someone's sending food, you know, my first reaction, unfortunately,
because I grew up in a very neurotic household, is like,
how do you know? I grew up in the tailand
hall cyanide era. You know, is someone going to try
to kill us all off? I don't know where it's
(20:00):
coming from. Maybe they're they're trying to think it's a
nice gesture, but maybe they're not fans of the show
so much, and so you know, there's some crazy people,
sick people in the world. So I was like, I
was hesitant to eat it, but I smelled that onion
bagel bag and I'm like, you know.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
I'll take my chances.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
But I told Todd, if you're going to die, it's
not a bad way to go. Onion bagel, cream cheese.
Speaker 5 (20:20):
See she's on your nose and on the side of you.
Look there, you're one of your favorite things. That's that's
how you do it.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah, we were going to bring back a clip, but
it's eight minutes long that Todd just went into this
diatribe about how he could not believe that they didn't
have onion bagels at this place, and this poor girl
in the drive through and you're berating her.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
That's what set me up. Though she didn't share you,
especially at least pretend because the customer was always right.
She didn't seem to be that caring of my situation.
How passionate I was about, you don't have onion bagels,
you don't have tune of fish. You know, well, I
know it was later in the day and you start
running out of a certain things.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
How could she care? Possibly care as much as you care?
Speaker 5 (20:58):
They true, maybe not as much, but they train you're
supposed to train people to, you know, if the customer
is passionate about something, you know, act like you care.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Look, Okay, how much experience do you have in fast food.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
As far as eating it? A lot? As far as
working at a fast food place, I have not done.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
You've never done that.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
I have not worked.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
How would you do?
Speaker 5 (21:16):
I would do terribly because I know I'm not very
good with my hands.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Or no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
If I went through If I just went through the
drive through and I asked for something and you didn't
have it, and then all of a sudden, I'm berating you.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
I would probably first I feel really bad, and I'd
get nervous about the situations because I want to make
the customer happy. And then I'd go to the manager.
Is there any way we can quickly make a couple
of onion bagels and whip up a batch of tun officio?
This person really wants that. I know we're closing in
fifteen minutes, but you think there's any way we can
help this kid out. This guy's really.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Don't you think they would have made onion bagels? If
they had onion bagels there?
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I knew in the back of my mind that at
this time of the day, which was like a quarter
two in the afternoon, I think they closed there too.
You run out of certain bagels. What set me off
was they didn't have onion bagels, and they didn't have
tuna either. I thought, at least have one of them.
I was really I had a craving for a tu
on an onion bagel, as weird as that might sound,
and they didn't have either. And she seemed like she
couldn't get out of there fast enough. She could care
(22:08):
less that her shift was ending, and you know, to
drive through plays next. Okay, That's how I felt at
that moment. I was really hungry. I had eaton all
day and she got the wrath of that a little.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah, but but not eating up until then is your choice.
That's not her choice, true, but it made me extra groucy.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
Yes, Marvin, I am completely against Fritzy now that I've
heard that he wanted these bagels at a quarter to
two in the afternoon. Those bagel shops are done at
two o'clock in the afternoon. If he said it right
before he got here, six o'clock, seven o'clock, eight o'clock.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
I'd be with him. But after this, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
That is ridiculous.
Speaker 8 (22:46):
Two o'clock and you're upset that there's no bagels left
those bagels are done by eleven, and.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
I proceed to ask for a second or third or
fourth trust and have any of those either, which definitely
made the matter even worry. I'm like, what, I'll tell
you what? Why wy don't you tell them what you
do have? And we'll go from there. And then it
just became like a wise ass.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
See, it's an unfortunate situation when Todd's cravings in the
middle of the day are not lining up with the
local business hours.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
Sir, I don't know what to tell you. I'm sorry,
we don't have any on you. Listen, I need to
know what you do have. You're closing in like four
minutes here, and I'm very hungry. You don't have the
Nantucket nectar apple juice either that I like, But that's
besides the point. What bagels do you have? And then
I'll pick one of those? Said, I mean, just rattling
off names for you to tell me. No, I'm sorry
we don't have that either.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
You could have gone inside.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
That would require me parking and walking the ten steps
into the bill. You know, it was a hot day out.
I'm not doing that.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
But my music on this is exactly the way that
person wanted to end their day.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Yeah, so you imagine poor girl.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Now you ever walk into a restaurant like fifteen minutes
before the closing the eye, Uh, everybody looks at you like, yeah, yeah,
I'm definitely spinning in your food.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Definitely go in for last call. Yeah, and then they
know that you're there. They're closing in sixteen minutes. I
have a baked Alaska.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
It's gonna take us forty five minutes.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Jesus H anniversary, Todd, Thanks, we have a lemon poppy.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
A donut shop.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
She was rattling off names that would be more like
a donut dat. Have you gone back?
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Of course I've gone back because it's convenient and it's near.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Whe Did you apologize to this girl?
Speaker 4 (24:22):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
I think she may have quit. I think whatever I
did a number on her. I never saw her ever again.
She either did a different shift or she said I
don't think this is for me. I quit. I don't
need the job right there?
Speaker 3 (24:31):
All right, Well, do you want to mention the listener?
Speaker 5 (24:34):
It was Jeff something. That's how sensitive I am an
appreciative I have. I didn't get to catch the last name,
but I know it's on the piece of paper in
the in the back there on a low re seat.
But that was very nice, but didn't say where it
is from. There was no phone number, just the name
of the bagel company and Jeff something, but thank you. Jeff.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Dave in Cincinnati, Hi Dave, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Hey Damn?
Speaker 12 (24:54):
How you doing?
Speaker 11 (24:54):
So?
Speaker 12 (24:55):
This is calling about the False SOULSAE thing. I know
you're kind of familiar with the area. But every year
local radio station WBN they put on this risy fireworks
festival things. The last is about forty five minutes. It's
called the Boom of the Fall, but usually when that's over,
that signifies the day of fall.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Well that's only in Cincinnati, but the rest of the country.
I'm trying to help everybody understand. September first is the
official start of fall, and then we could do December
first for the start of winter. Lucas in Texas. Hi Luke,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 13 (25:34):
Good morning morning. A couple of quick quick points and
then a question for you. First off, yesterday's conversation was
about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. I'm sorry they're both
a little They've got fancy case that wedding screens Lake Como,
Italy to me. But when it comes to the start
of fall, I agree with PAULI football equals fall. Fall
(25:57):
equals football, and for me, whenever everybody's playing, and that
includes the NFL, I've always thought that that Thursday night
really does feel like Okay, we're back in the rhythm. Everyone,
we know the season, we know the days and whatnot.
It feels like fall, particularly whenever the NFL kicks off,
because everyone else is up and running at that point too,
high school and college. And that leads me to my question,
(26:19):
but especially with this kickoff coming up. I did listen
to the Dan Patrick Takes a Gamble podcast episode last
week and it sounds like you're considering my proposal of
watching a game with one Shae and Irving. So my
only question, it's really simple, when's next year's any ceremony?
And do I get a plus one?
Speaker 2 (26:39):
Well, I can't invite you if we just get nominated.
So we've been nominated what six times? But I don't
think this would put us over the top that I'm
watching a cowboy game with Shane Irving. But thank you
Lucas for the suggestion. I'll bring it up to Shae.
We're going to do the podcast later on Today. Dan
Patrick takes a gamble tome in North Carolina. Hi, Tom,
(27:02):
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Hey?
Speaker 14 (27:05):
DP, I got some possible breaking news, but I also
wanted to go over the backpack etiquette. Marvin had mentioned earlier.
You know, he had a Ultimate Warrior backpack in grade school,
and you have that with two shoulders. You carried the
backpack all the way through elementary school with the two shoulders,
but maybe about midway through junior high school you put
(27:26):
it over to the one shoulder. Now, the guys that
were carrying the two on the two shoulders, they were
made made not as school or whatever like that, or
they had they still have you know, uh, some G I.
Joe or whatever on their on their backpack.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Now.
Speaker 14 (27:40):
The second the second breaking news, and I possibly need
a second source, possibly poly the second source on it.
But I was informed yesterday that one Bill Belichick and
his girlfriend are actually applying for a patent for the
name gold Digger to start her jewelry line.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Yep, I saw that. I saw where they had applied
for the patent. I don't know if it's true or not,
but they applied for the patent. A lot of stories
about Bill Belichick and his girlfriend going around. We would
need a second and probably third source on some of those.
Let's see Mike and Hollywood. Hi Mike, what's on your
(28:21):
mind today?
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Morning? Dan?
Speaker 15 (28:24):
Thanks for taking my call. Yeah, I got a quick
story for you and the guys just wanted to get
your take on it. Last week, Marvin was talking about
wearing a Pirate hat and he's not a Pirates fan.
I have a shirt for Wrigley Field. I'm a Dodger fan.
Wriggley's Hollow Ground. It's a historic site. A couple of
weeks Ageter, We're taking my son to college in the
Midwest and I'm getting on the plane. You know, you're
(28:47):
milling down the aisle. Woman in the seat seeing my shirt,
she gets all excited and nudges her husband. He looks
up and he starts chatting me up about the Cubs. Oh,
you know it's rough right now? You think we stand
a chance we're gonna make the playoffs?
Speaker 5 (29:01):
Oh?
Speaker 15 (29:02):
We got on the plane we were losing. What do
you think you think we're gonna win? I did not
have the heart dand to tell this guy that I
was not a Cubs fan. I don't know what to do,
so I just start chatting them up about the Cubs.
I'm like, well, you know, PCA looks real good and uh,
you know, I mean August is tough on a lot
of teams, a lot of injuries, and gosh, I hope
(29:23):
we fly to w.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
You know, I'm fine with that, Mike, I'm fine with that.
You know, you're neutral played to the Home Crown.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
It's okay.
Speaker 9 (29:32):
You know.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Marvin's got Montreal Expos hat on today. He'll wear Toronto
Blue Jay's hat, Pirates hat. He's not a fan of
any of those teams. Yes, Marvin, I'm sorry everyone. I
need a shirt that just says maybe you can make it.
I need a shirt that says I don't like this team.
I just like the heck.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
I lie to people all the time, and the best
way to do it is if the bullpen gets it together,
you say something about the bullpen.
Speaker 4 (29:58):
You're there.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Jeff Doraley bought the begels for Fritzie. I just got
the information from weeks our cameraman, Jeffey Jeff do Rally. Yeah,
Jeff de Rally. Five year anniversary of the Drive through
Bagel situation. Tim in Iowa, Hi, Tim, what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (30:20):
One DP?
Speaker 9 (30:20):
How are we doing it?
Speaker 5 (30:21):
Great?
Speaker 16 (30:23):
Good buddy? Hey in the world about what about ISM's
a salty Braves fan here. You're talking about that picture
for the Mets earlier. But the Braves have Herston Waldrip
who's come up and through four games is four and
oh with twenty four strikeouts, So just a little bit
better than that Mets pitcher.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
It's all.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
It's all I got to say.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
I hope you all have a great guest.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Thank you, Tim. I guess that's the East Coast bias
in me with Nolan McClain. I can only tell you
about Nolan McClain because I saw him pitch and he
has struck out twenty one batters. Fourteen of the twenty
one have come by swinging. And hey, I'm all four pitching.
Otani went five innings. I'm all for that. That's great.
(31:10):
I'm sure that his MVP odds went up even higher
when he had this outing there. But we do have
a race in the American League. Cal Rawly I think
is a slight favorite over Aaron Judge. Now I do
have a problem when it's voter fatigue. And I voted
on MVP awards, I voted on Rookie of the Year,
I voted on all of that. But we get to
(31:32):
the point where we've done this. We did this with Joker,
did it with Giannis. You know, you get to that, Ah, well,
they've already won a couple. Or let's say, let's say
you're a news director or your editor says, hey, why
don't you go do a feature on Aaron Judge?
Speaker 3 (31:52):
Well, what's the angle? Now?
Speaker 4 (31:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
I mean he's hitting, he's hitting high average and a
lot of home runs, and we've done that one before.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
All right, Well what about cal Rawley? Yeah, the big dumper.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Yeah, that's something new, something fresh, it's exciting. Well, I mean,
people are human. What can you say about Aaron Judge? Now,
if you said Sports Illustrated, if Sports Illustrated back when
it was Sports Illustrated really meant something, they would have
cal Rawley on the cover, not Aaron Judge. Now you
(32:30):
would say, the New York market you want that. But
cal Rawley is a better story. Doesn't mean that he
should be the MVP because he's a better story. But
I do believe voter fatigue happens. I think you had
that with Joker. I think you've had that before with
players where what else can we say about this gun? Yeah,
it's just it's sometimes challenging to get people to look
(32:55):
deeper into that same player. Because Joker is better now
than he was. He had his best season, but it
felt like there was voter fatigue. Shay gilgis Alexander, Hey,
let's introduce him to America.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Had a wonderful year.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
They won the NBA title, and he should feel very
proud to be able to pull that off. What he
did this year, great year. He wasn't a better basketball
player or more valuable in my opinion, than Joker was,
but it was a new story and I'm glad that
they did feature him, But we do get it. Just
like Joker lost out to Joe l Embiid and I went,
(33:32):
this is going to be a crime because Joe el
Embiid is nowhere near what Joker is just not.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
But it felt like, oh my god, we're going to
give it to Joker again.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I wasn't voting when Larry won I think three consecutive
MVPs Bird, But I don't know if there was voter
fatigue I think there was voter fatigue with Jordan. I
think that's why Charles won it. They he had a
great year, but the most valuable player in the game
was Michael Jordan. Karl Malone won a couple he wasn't
more valuable than Jordan. But voter fatigue does play a
(34:07):
role absolutely, Otani. I don't even if there's voter fatigue,
you'd really have to go out of your way to go. Yeah,
you know, I made a strong case for Kyle Schwarber. No,
I just want him in the MVP conversation, he's not
going to win it, And the same with you know,
cal rawling Is he better than Aaron Judge? No, but
(34:29):
is he more valuable than Aaron Judge and the Yankees
have to make the playoffs? You can make a legitimate case.
The catcher, one of the best catchers in the game,
has hit fifty home runs for a team that's in
the playoff hunt.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
Now you can have.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
A legitimate conversation and you could do a big feature
on him now that novelty goes away next year if
he wins the MVP, and Aaron Judge would probably have
a better.
Speaker 3 (34:52):
Chance next year if that were the case. But Otani.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Otani's going to continue to win MVPs just because nobody can.
You know this kid McClain. He was at Oklahoma State
and he was a two way player. I think they
called him the because they're the Cowboys, the cowboy Otani
and I don't know if he's given any consideration to
trying to hit in the major leagues. Somebody's gonna do
it one of these days. Somebody's gonna go Otani and say,
(35:18):
I want to hit and I want to pitch, but
you better be really really good at one if they're
gonna let you do the other. Take a break. Play

Check this out.
Speaker 9 (35:50):
Jordi Alba back to Scovia. Messi settles.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
Actual play of the day.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Leonel Messi scores a late goal to help Enter Miami
advance to the League Cup Final. They will face Seattle
in the final coming up on Sunday. But that was
a meaningless story in the bigger world of soccer. Let's
go to our soccer reporter, Seat O'Connor.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
See, I don't know if any of you guys saw
the Grimsby Town game Manchester United.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Only only the result Grimsby Town. I didn't know of
a Grimsby Town, but Grimsby Town beat Manchester United.
Speaker 4 (36:43):
They did. Yeah, Grimsby Town is in the fourth tier
of English soccer.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Okay, as soccer, you know aficionados like to do. They
like to translate this so we novices can understand just
how big of an upset this was. Grimsby Town against
Manchester United would be akin to So, uh.
Speaker 4 (37:04):
Let's see, how do you do this where it's not
super insulting, Like if it's in a college football sense,
who's a team that's really big but it's kind of
down right now, Like uh, like okay, Florida State or
Florida or they're huge. Manchester United is a global brand.
They're one of the biggest, most iconic soccer teams of
all time. Okay, Grimsby Town is in the fourth tier,
(37:25):
so it would be like Alabama losing to like Middlesex
Community College. Oh, they're like, that's a little unfair to
Grimsby Town, but they're so much further down. Wrexham was
in the same league as Grimsby Town two years ago, maybe,
and they've been promoted three straight years, so they're, you know,
(37:46):
fourth tier. They're pretty far down there.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Would it be like the Kansas City Chiefs losing to
Akron Maybe maybe?
Speaker 4 (37:57):
Yeah. Yeah, it's tough because they it's it's a tough
comparison because we just don't have it set up that
way here, you know. Like so if you took a
Major league baseball team and they lost to a farm
system team, you know, that might be something comparable, but
we don't really have sports set up the same way.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Is this the greatest upset in professional soccer history? It's
definitely one of them, for sure. It's one of the
It's one of the biggest.
Speaker 4 (38:25):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Is this similar to Shamanad beating Virginia?
Speaker 4 (38:30):
Sure? Sure they you know, and it's crazy. The thing
that made it crazy too was that the game was
so good. Grimsby Town jumped out to a two nothing
lead and it was shocking, and then you spend the
rest of the time being like, God, can they just
hold on? Manchester United tied it in the last like
five minutes of the game, which then sent it to penalties.
Penalties sort of went back and forth a little bit.
(38:51):
Manchester United had the chance to win it, the Grimsby
town keeper saved it, sent it into the next round.
It was it was pretty in This is how.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
It sounded courtesy is CBS Sports Wamo.
Speaker 9 (39:04):
Has it been under that pressure yet? But now he
is he has to score another. Listen to the newise
should have Grisby fans.
Speaker 12 (39:22):
It babox truck, basic stars.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
It is bloodsto.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
Awesome, awesome.
Speaker 4 (39:33):
That's a Manchester that had a chance to win it
with another penalty kick. The Gridsby town keeper saved it
and then that one Brian and Walmo hit it off
the crossbar, so they lost. And then after the game
everybody's going crazy. The Gridsby town keeper is getting interviewed
on TV after it and he said something along the
lines of I'm going to get it wrong a little bit.
But he was just like, well, I'm actually I'm half
(39:53):
pissed because I'm a Manchester United fan.
Speaker 2 (39:55):
So I just sent them packing or whatever. I just
sent my own team PA. That's great, that's great, and
it is awesome and Grimsby town. That's a seaside town.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
All I know about Grimsby Town is I think the
Germans drop bombs on Grimsby Town during World War Two
for some reason. That's the only thing I know about
Grimsby Town. But that's awesome that Manchester United goes to
Grimsby Town and you're playing in their facility. You know,
they're used to playing in front of you know, seventy
(40:32):
thousand or whatever, one hundred thousand, and then here they
are in Grimsby Town that seats ten grand Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
Blundell Park, I think it seats nine thousand. One of
the things that they do with these tournaments this was
like the League Cup or the Carabell Cup, is they
have the bigger teams go to the smaller teams, and
then the revenue that those smaller teams generate from just
these games helps keep them afloat for the whole year
because they're so small. And so you get these huge
(40:57):
teams like Manchester United playing in these tiny venues that
look like a shed. You know, it's just it's these
little places. The atmosphere is just spectacular.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
That's great.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
That's great, and a great call as well. Courtesy of
CBS Sports, all Right, one hour in the books. Chris
