Speaker 4 (00:29):
Program, I'm gonna be down by campus Corner, Okay, which
I haven't been to before, but I hear that's where
sort of everything happens in Norman before the game. Uh,

Speaker 5 (00:50):
Well.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
The merchandise store is open for business. Danpatrick dot Com
stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America,
the official trading cards of the DP show. From the
crew that brought you the Office, comes the new Comedy
of Underdogs with Major Issues the paper streaming now only
on Peacock moral victory. But if you're the Dolphins, that's
(01:11):
not going to keep your coach employed. You got to
win that game. You had a chance. You went toe
to tow. Buffalo is a really good team. They haven't
committed a turnover so far through three games, and that
might be the big difference with them.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Miami.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
You know, and you're tied to twenty one, you go
for a block punt, you miss it, and then you
pay the price. But you know, the Bills didn't commit
a turnover. They have zero turnovers through the first game
three games of the season. That's first time in franchise history.
And the Dolphins now zero to three, winless through the
first three games of the season for the first time
since twenty nineteen.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Here is Josh Allen after the win last night.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
I think there's obviously times throw games where the situation
dictates you'd to maybe put the kit the pedal down
a little bit more, and there's sometimes so it's like, hey,
just take it easy, relax. I wouldn't say played the
long game, but just understanding where you're at, you know,
within the situation of the game and not trying to
force anything. You know, we saw that tonight, just kind
of staying same as calm as possible, you know, and
(02:13):
just being prepared for any situation that we were going
to be in. You know, it was going to be
either a two minute at the end there or four
minute and through Albinard makes a fantastic play and we
can be in a four minute still there.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Now, the Dolphins have some time to get ready for
the Jets. I mean it's a standalone game. It'll be
a week from Monday night, and they better win this game.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Like you don't think of must win games like the
third week of the season, like the Chiefs feel like
a must win situation against the Giants. I don't know
if there are other teams where you go, you got
to win that game. Well, Miami, I didn't think they
were going to win, but I would have taken the
points in that game. But you're looking at teams where
(02:53):
you go, okay, three weeks, four weeks, Chief's got the
Ravens coming up. But you know, you start to look
at these teams and you go, Okay, something better happen,
and better happened soon. You know, the Texans are at
the Jags, they're getting one and a half. Could they
(03:16):
be out of I mean this must win situation for them.
I don't know if there's another must win situation other
than the Chiefs against the Giants, and the Giants are
six point underdogs. And I didn't think that week three
we'd be going, you know, must see TV and that
Sunday night game Chiefs and the Giants. By the way,
speaking of the Giants, Eli Manning was on with Peter
(03:38):
Schrager on his podcast and Eli wanted to be a
good Giant quarterback and he reached out to Jackson Dart
and he said, if there's anything I can help you with,
you let me know. And the Giants rookie quarterback did
reach out to Eli Manning and he asked for a favor.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
Well, I told Jackson, if you have any questions about anything,
you know, I'm here for you, you know, football related
or just you know, you're deciding you know what town
you want to live in or that or all sad
his training camp. Uh, he calls me, you know one
day's like, hey, you got you got a minute. I'm like, yeah,
of course. So you know, such a similar situation you
we're in, like you know, bringing in a veteran like
(04:17):
like Russell Wilson.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
They brought Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Sure.
Speaker 7 (04:21):
It was like maybe this is dealing with that or something.
Just can you give me a reservation at four Charles tonight?
Speaker 1 (04:26):
At six French Tip in America.
Speaker 7 (04:30):
I was like, no, no, no, that's not part of the deal.
When I said I'm having to help out, like I'm
not doing that yet.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Since guy, that's great set up by Ela.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
By the way, for Charles is one of the tougher
restaurants to get into, certainly in New York City, and
to say, hey, can you get me in there tonight
is impossible. But even if you have that kind of
relationship where he's helping me out, you know, you're you know,
on the day of, then you want to go to
a restaurant that I think has eight tables in it.
(05:04):
I waited three months. My sister in law got me
in there and it was like, okay, but you're waiting
for a long long time. Not that I'm anybody, but
you're just waiting to get in and he's asking, hey,
could you get me in there's eight tables six thirty Yes,
todd Even if it's.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
Fully don't you have to warm things up.
Speaker 9 (05:26):
With Eli with a couple of football related questions, even
if you're not interested in the answer at all, before
you ask for a reservation at a restaurant that's so
hard to get into the same night of all things, you.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Know, you know this cover three has bothered me a
little bit, you know, the two high safety and taking
the top off, and could you give me a reservation?
Speaker 3 (05:44):
That's where you go.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Hey, man, I'm just trying to figure everything out navigating
the city, and you've got restaurants that you really like.
And then Eli would probably say, oh, yeah, you know,
I got a couple of them here. Hey what about
you know four Prime or for whatever it is, Uh,
it's on Charles Street. But and then you could go,
(06:07):
could you get I know this is asking a lot.
Could you get me in maybe tonight? You know, bring
my mom?
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Yes time.
Speaker 9 (06:14):
You could even say, like, I'll never get in there,
but I have like this dream what I'm hearing about
this restaurant. I wish there's anyone that, uh if you
know anybody that hasn't in there that can get me in.
It's something i'd really want to experience.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
My sister in law said, I didn't get you into
the restaurant that was your uh my my wife, my
son's wife, that'd be my daughter in law.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Is that right downtown? This works? Yeah, I just got word.
Speaker 10 (06:38):
Yes, Marta, if we asked you for a favor, how
much notice would.
Speaker 8 (06:42):
You like to have?
Speaker 3 (06:43):
A week? Yeah? A week? I'll talk to you after
the show, all right, thank you, yes, pony. Yeah.
Speaker 11 (06:50):
For Charles prime Rib, I think the day of ask
is the big faux pie. If you said, hey, sometime
this season, can you get me in there? You keep
it open ended, then it's a fair as ish.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I think there's only eight tables in this restaurant.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
And now once again, the food was spectacular, service was great,
I mean everything about it. But you know my daughter
in law waited three months to get in there. And
Jackson Dart. Now, if Eli calls, then okay, I don't
even know if you can get through. That's one of
those where you call and then you get an answering machine. Yes, Ton,
(07:27):
it seems a little rooted and appropriate of Dart. But
is any part of that flattering?
Speaker 9 (07:31):
You think so highly of Eli Manning that if anyone
could get him on a few hours notice into this restaurant,
the great Eli Manning with the two Super Bowl rings
can pull that on.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I don't know, I'm going to question Jackson Dart's field awareness,
like I think this comes into football decisions.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Yes see, Jackson Dart is still operating under the idea
that but I'm a professional athlete, so anything works just
maybe not for me, but I know the guy that
can get me in there, and that that really isn't
the way that it works. Actually, there is still a
hierarchy even though you're you know, an NFL quarterback, there's
still a hierarchy of people that over you that get
(08:06):
access to things like that.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, like you know at Old Miss, you know, we
we got to go wherever we wanted. And you know, Eli,
you be in a former Old Miss quarterback, can you
get me into one of the toughest restaurants in the city?
But I did? Eli told that. That's a great story.
He set that up nicely.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Each seven seven three DP Show email address Dpadanpatrick.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Dot com Twitter handle the TP Show. Good morning.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Do no body, alrighty, we'll get to phone calls here.
Do we have a poll question for hour two?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Seton?
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Yeah, let me update you here. We just got this
one up from Paul really his hammer, Paul's hammer pull,
Paul's hammer. Of the quarterbacks from the twenty twenty draft
other than Jalen Hurts, who will end up having the
best career, Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert to a tongue of Iloa,
or Jordan Love Right now, Justin Herbert has about thirty
eight percent of that vote, followed by.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Joe Burrow.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Tua has one percent.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Of the vote. Okay, I picked Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Yeah, but he's out of it. He's out on that question.
Speaker 12 (09:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Oh he should be, he's already had the best career.
Speaker 8 (09:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
So college football this weekend, I'm looking at you know,
the Michigan Nebraska game is really interesting. I'm waiting for
Nebraska to kind of be Nebraska and Michigan is a
one and a half point favorite. There at Nebraska. Uh
(09:49):
Tulane and ole Miss that should be a shootout.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
That's fun.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Notre Dame is favored by twenty four and a half
against Purdue.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Illinois, Indiana is spicy. I think contrasting styles. Illinois likes
to pound the ball in Indiana kind of wide open.
Michigan State's getting eighteen and a half at USC. Got
to keep USC winning and Notre Dame better start winning
because we're going out. It's four weeks from yesterday that
(10:20):
we will be there in South Bend, Indiana.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Yes, Todd, but if they don't.
Speaker 9 (10:25):
Beat the boiler it is Notre Dame done with another
loss this weekend?
Speaker 8 (10:30):
Is that officially no scenario?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Well, this wouldn't be a quality loss if they lost
it Purdue, that would be extremely damaging. Let's see Steven Ohio. Hi, Steve,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 13 (10:44):
Oh I was just calling in about where we're talking
about kids' names, and I was a huge trand growing
up of Jim McMahon. So I asked my wife, I said,
what do you think about the middle name of McMahon,
And she's like, you find me one person that would
think that's good. So I call up a good friend
of mine who didn't have kids at the time, and
he wanted to name his kid four. So I asked
him and he said, yes, it's a great name. So
(11:06):
hence I have a Jacob mcmahon' my family.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Wait a minute, you have a friend who named his
kid four. It's four.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
He wanted to his wife wouldn't let him, like the
number four, No, four, like the superhero.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Oh oh four?
Speaker 14 (11:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Oh, oh, my bad.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I'm thinking four and it's Brett Faarr. But you know,
if you're calling yeah, okay.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
My bad.
Speaker 8 (11:34):
Ai.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Yeah, I didn't hear that one.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I ran it to somebody who uh has a child
named Atticus. And I have somebody I ran into who
has some friend uh who has a child name Poseidon.
Speaker 8 (11:51):
That kid's got a lot of adventures coming up.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Yes, I know several kids who have the middle name Messi.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, multiple, yes, ton And the kid's actually very clean
and obsessive, compulsive and washing his hands, So having.
Speaker 8 (12:06):
The name Messi is weird.
Speaker 15 (12:08):
Yes.
Speaker 11 (12:09):
Thor is a popular first name in Denmark and Norway,
not so much elsewhere.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Yeah, but I understand it there, but Thor here.
Speaker 11 (12:19):
There's a pressure to be jacked if your name's Thor.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Also, somebody that I've met then they have a sudden
named Atlas that feels like they're carrying the weight to
the world.
Speaker 8 (12:30):
You can't find their way around though, which is really weird.
What a dichotomy?
Speaker 11 (12:35):
Yes, Pauli one of the all timers. Our friend Ryan Leef.
He called me the day his baby was born, his
son was born. He goes, I had the boy. I
go cool, what's the name? He goes mcguiver like, excuse me?
And I assume he's messing with me. He named his
son mcguiver after the TV show.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Mcgiver Patrick in California, Hi, Patrick, what's on your mind?
Speaker 12 (12:56):
Hey? Morning?
Speaker 16 (12:56):
DP one Danet's six foot in shoes a soft two
hundred pounds. Okay, So going back to the famous celebrity
names or sports people's names. I was born in ninety three.
My dad's a big San Francisco Niners fan, so yeah,
that's my almost. He could name me Joseph Montana Elliott,
to which she said no. They were shortly divorced thereafter.
(13:20):
I don't know why, but did here in there another one,
my brother in twenty twenty, his wife was pregnant with
his first son.
Speaker 17 (13:28):
My brother's a big boxing fan.
Speaker 16 (13:30):
Named his son, Tyson after Tyson Fury, who was named
after Mike Tyson.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Okay, Marvin, you could have gone with Marvin Hagler. You
could have told the kids in your school so they
didn't make fun of you, and.
Speaker 8 (13:45):
They would have said, who's Marvin Hagler, But.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
They would have known Marvin Gay.
Speaker 10 (13:49):
Yes, absolutely more people know Marvin Gay than Marvin Hagler.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
But back then, all.
Speaker 10 (13:55):
Right, so when I'm in school, this is nineteen ninety three,
four five.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
But Marvin Gay had been dead for twenty years.
Speaker 8 (14:04):
But that music list forever?
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Uh, what's going on? One of my favorite artists.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
By the way, Yes, it doesn't matter who Marvin was
named after. Just the fact that someone named Marvin Gay
existed opens Marvin up to then that name. It really
doesn't matter who He couldn't been named after his uncle Marvin.
It really doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
And then Todd, I don't know how they came up
with your nickname.
Speaker 9 (14:29):
I've had a lot of Oh the one with the
Fritz potato chips that was just one kid and which
was kind of stupid.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Oh okay, but I thought you were like I was.
Speaker 9 (14:36):
Always like Fritzy or Toddy Joe because my Momie is
Joseph for TJ a little bit. Once in a while, Little Biff,
my manager called me in little league, because he was
a big Braves fan and Biff Pokarova was one of
the Firit players. My brother was Biff and I was
a little Biff. I didn't know for quite a while
till I got his baseball car.
Speaker 8 (14:51):
Oh, that's what he's talking about. Braves capture Biff Pokearoba.
I'm little Biff. But the Fritz Fritz female body part
potato chick. Oh, here comes Fritz Believe potato chips. All right,
that's stupid. Why is everybody giggling? It's not even funny.
It doesn't even rhyme chips and.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Fritz, you're you're clearly over it, totally over what's happening
in the with the rhyming schemes there in your neighborhood.
Speaker 9 (15:15):
Todd that, Yeah, I took it over for them. Now,
I'm such a great rhymer based on that, I think
that's where it all started. I'm like eight years old
and playing kickball in the park in Brooklyn.
Speaker 8 (15:23):
Fritz beef potato troops. Really we're gonna do that again?
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Dang, Fritz, it's potato chips.
Speaker 8 (15:32):
Yeah, dang, he couldn't. He thought he came up with
the most clever thing in the history of the world.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
It's pretty good, pretty good. It's pretty great.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, I mean it's rando, but still it's it's pretty awesome.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
Those three things have like nothing to do with each other,
you know, separate.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Well, you never know one thing leads to another, you
never know, Todd fair enough, all right, we'll take a break.
Coming up, we'll talk to Devin mccordy, former defensive back
now with NBC Football Night in America.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
He'll stop by.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
We'll talk to some football, not only from last night,
but games coming up this weekend and is it a
must win situation for the Chiefs against the Giants on
Sunday night.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
We're back after this.
Speaker 1 (16:12):

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Mark Maski, great football writer for the Washington Post, said
that the NFL officials deem Philadelphia have been called for
a false start on Sunday and warned that officials would
call those plays tight moving forward. Okay, so the Eagles
have been warned. Here's my problem. How about I warned
the officials. This isn't on the Eagles. The Eagles are
(17:14):
going to try to get away with whatever they can.
This is on the officials. It was obvious you had
two players on the offensive line who jumped. I mean,
just call it. The tush push is here. It's here
to stay this year and then it'll probably be gone.
But the NFL put themselves in this position when they
(17:36):
there used to be a rule that said you can't
push somebody from behind, and then they change that I
think in two thousand and five. I don't know why
you brought it back, but the tush pushes here. The
Eagles have done it. It's part of their regimen and
they do it really well. But the NFL putting the
Eagles on notice, I would put your officials on notice.
Who missed those calls. Devin mccordy. He's a three time
(18:00):
Super Bowl champ, former defensive back, three time All Pro.
You can catch him on Football Night in America. It'll
be the Chiefs and the Giants. They'll be at MetLife Stadium,
eight twenty eastern. Okay, why didn't the officials call those
false starts on the Eagles with the tush push.
Speaker 19 (18:22):
I think it's tougher than we think.
Speaker 20 (18:25):
I think everybody's so zeroed in and looking to see
if they're off sides or not.
Speaker 19 (18:28):
I mean, it's a clear miss of the play.
Speaker 20 (18:32):
And I think, like, if I'm the Chiefs, I'm pissed
because to me, like you can't miss that on that play,
like everyone's been complaining about it. You can't now give
them an advantage of the false star because I think
if usually when a guy's on defense lineup off sides,
that was like an emphasis last year, so obviously it'll
be washing it a close call now. But when you
lose in a close three point game last week, that
(18:55):
letter doesn't.
Speaker 19 (18:55):
Help you at all.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Is this a must win situation for the Chiefs against.
Speaker 20 (18:59):
The I think so, I think for them, and they
get back to feeling like yourselves and to rally.
Speaker 19 (19:06):
You can't fall too far behind.
Speaker 20 (19:08):
The Chargers are already starting two to zero, Like you
can't go zero to three and just keep losing and
hoping that Rashie Rice gets back and hoping worthy like
you still got to go.
Speaker 19 (19:18):
Find a way to win.
Speaker 20 (19:19):
And I think your championship pedigree is going to make
them feel like they have to go win this game.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
I just wonder if maybe it's right there in front
of us, and maybe this is where the Chiefs aren't
who we thought they were, that they're not going to
win this division.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Maybe they're a wild card team.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
I mean, how how far along do you need to
get before you think you've got to handle on who
the Chiefs are?
Speaker 20 (19:43):
I mean, for them, it won't we won't believe in
until they lose in the playoffs or they don't make
it like that's the only way because they're The way
they've lost these first two games is the same way
they won games last year. Instead, last year against the Chargers,
they get the defensive stop them.
Speaker 19 (20:00):
Holmes goes down the scores.
Speaker 20 (20:01):
This year against the Eagles, they would have got the
defensive snap stop and then he goes to score. So
it's the same thing as that close of a line
in the NFLS. They're not far off.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
The Dolphins last night had a chance to win that game.
They were going toe to toe with Buffalo. What are
they missing?
Speaker 19 (20:21):
I think the way.
Speaker 20 (20:22):
Their team is constructed to what has to go be
that guy. And I know everybody's going to talk about
the sealer penalty to extend to drive.
Speaker 19 (20:31):
The truth of the.
Speaker 20 (20:32):
Matter is they Buffalo goes up seven with I think
seven minutes and seventeen seconds left in the fourth quarter,
plenty of time. Miami drives right down the field and
then it comes to throw Terrell Bernardo interception and then
they go down. Buffalo goes down, kicks a field goal
with twenty somethings seconds left, and that's the game.
Speaker 19 (20:51):
And I think we're not even.
Speaker 20 (20:52):
Talking about the sealer penalty if Tua can take the
team down and go.
Speaker 19 (20:56):
Score, because they did.
Speaker 20 (20:58):
Like everyone expected their defense not to get any stops
last night, they got two big stops in the third
a stop in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 19 (21:05):
To try to get this team to lead.
Speaker 20 (21:07):
I just think, you know, an obviously the offensive line
isn't perfect.
Speaker 19 (21:10):
They need to or to be the guy.
Speaker 20 (21:12):
That we watch Buffalo and Josh Allen that no matter
how the game goes, if I get enough chances, I'll
go win the game. I'll go take the game away
from the other team. I think they need to start
to see that from Tua.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
But being a former defensive back, if you know that
quarterback's not going to throw, he not even looking downfield,
everything is, you know, five yards. You know, maybe occasionally
it's a little bit more than that if he scrambles
like he did last night. But how does that affect
how you play your position if you know he's not
really going to challenge you down the field.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 20 (21:45):
I remember playing in games and Coach Belichick can come
and tell us, like, this team's not trying to throw
the ball down the field, and he would say, like,
at most, I think the ball might go forty forty
five yards down the field.
Speaker 19 (21:56):
If you watched last night's game, he threw one.
Speaker 20 (21:58):
Post at Tyreek Hill probably should have been intercepted, hung
in the air forever. So it tells you be aggressive,
don't I know they have two of the fastest receivers
in the league, and it sounds crazy to say be aggressive,
But they're not throwing the ball really deep or really
outside that much. So you see Buffalo they're packing the
middle of the field, and guys who are aggressive coming downhill,
(22:20):
the linebackers play a little deeper to take away that
middle part, and they say, beat us checking the ball down,
beat us throwing it underneath the whole time. And that's
how everybody's playing them in so far it's worked because
it's led to We're going to continue to make you
play that way and hope that you make a mistake,
and Tua has made those mistakes. I think it's four
interceptions in the first three games.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
What's it like to line up against one of the
fast you know, the fastest guy in the NFL when
when you're out there you know he's faster than you.
But what is that like as a defensive back where
you go, all right, it's me on an island.
Speaker 19 (22:56):
You got to have a plan. I think that's the
key thing.
Speaker 20 (22:59):
So whenever you do see last night, it was Bentford
a lot on Tyreek Hill when he was up in
his face that pressure was coming, They were blitzing, they
were doing different things. So as a corner, you take
the mentality and have the confidence and.
Speaker 19 (23:12):
The rest of your guys that are right. I'm not
gonna have.
Speaker 20 (23:14):
To cover this fast dude for eight seconds because the
ball should be coming out fast. And I think that's
the blend of your rush and your coverage.
Speaker 19 (23:22):
You gotta have both.
Speaker 20 (23:23):
You can't chase Tyreek Hill around the field without pass
rush and think you're gonna have success.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Who is the guy though that when you're out on
an island, you're like, oh boy, Oh.
Speaker 20 (23:32):
I mean, who wasn't a guy You think about Antonio
Brown in my era, Julio Jones being the top two
when I was a young guy. The first time we
went to Detroit on Thanksgiving and you lined up against
Calvin Johnson and he got in a stance and you
were like looking up at him like those are the
times that you were like, man, mom and you here like, mom,
I really signed up to do this.
Speaker 19 (23:53):
But that's the challenge and the fun and playing defensive bat.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
We're talking to Devin mccordy.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
You can see him on Football Night in the marriage
because of the studio analyst, three times Super Bowl champ
with the Patriots.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
We were talking about baby names.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Where can you name your child after a sports personality?
I'm wondering in New England. How many babies were named Brady.
Speaker 20 (24:14):
One of my good friends his son's eight now and
he's a Brady. I mean, when you're walking around, you
meet so many kids named Brady because you know, Tom's
just not enough, like you can be any Tom, but
that Brady first name. It's it's very popular in all
the New England states.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
You wouldn't have named your children Brady, would you.
Speaker 19 (24:36):
I love Tom, but Brady. Brady wasn't coming at our house, kid.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Brady, And nobody's naming there kid Belichick.
Speaker 19 (24:44):
Yeah, I'm not saying that.
Speaker 20 (24:45):
Maybe there's some Maybe there's some Bills out there though,
William and they call him Bill out there.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
The Rams Eagles game is interesting because I don't know
if we've seen the best the Eagles have, but the Rams.
I think the Rams are so dangerous and well we
saw that last year in this game that they they
might have won that game if it was a little
bit longer, but obviously it wasn't. But handicap that game here.
What do you expect to happen in this rematch?
Speaker 19 (25:14):
I think the.
Speaker 20 (25:14):
Biggest thing I think the Rams are itching at this
rematch because if you remember in that playoff game, Saquon
Barkley had like two runs that were huge runs that
made up all of those yards. And I hate saying
this because every football game goes that way, but I'm
sure they're sitting there saying, if we just don't give
up those two plays in the running game, we successfully
(25:36):
go out there and we kind of slow down Saquon Barkley.
Speaker 19 (25:38):
So I think that's a big part.
Speaker 20 (25:40):
Everybody knows when the Rams can get in passing situations,
you don't want to go against that defensive front. But
I think the key thing for the Eagles is I
think they're gonna have to get the passing game going.
I think the Rams, even more than last year, are
going to develop so many people to stop at Saquon
Barkley because even though we say only two plays, that's
the danger of Saquon Barkley that on any given play
(26:03):
he can go to distance. So I think they're really
going to say, you know what, don't hold the disguise
as long, don't do this as a just get down there,
stop them, stop them.
Speaker 19 (26:13):
And I think that's going.
Speaker 20 (26:14):
To force the Eagles to use and open up this
passing game, and so far that's yet to be seen
how the passing game is really going to look this year.
We know they have the players, but like, is there
a confidence level to go out there and execute the
passing game at a high level, Because eventually I see
Stafford and Pooka Nakula and Devontae Adams, I see them
starting to be able to make some plays in this game.
(26:36):
We saw week one opposite Quintyon Mitchell is a little
bit of an issue.
Speaker 19 (26:40):
And with two guys that they have.
Speaker 20 (26:41):
With Stafford throwing the ball, I think that can create
some problems.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Are you all in on the Chargers.
Speaker 19 (26:48):
I've liked what I've seen from the Chargers. I really do.
I think.
Speaker 20 (26:51):
You know, we had the Hall of Fame game this
year and we all sat around the desk talking justin Herbert,
and my whole thing was I was tired of hearing
about his talent and everything he could do. It was
time to actually see it done. And I think in
these first two weeks they've answered the bell. They've come
and they've showed they can dominate a game. They can
win different ways. It's not just a running game, it's
(27:11):
dropped back passes, everything. So I do I think they're
for real this year.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
If I said you had to face Herbert, Jalen Hurts,
Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, who do you want to face?
Out of that group, who do I want to face?
Speaker 19 (27:28):
I would I would pick the I would pick Herbert.
Speaker 20 (27:30):
I would pick the Chargers, and playing against Herbert, I'm
not picking the other two guys that are. Do you
mind as we're not even saying Josh hal Lamar Jackson,
We're not even signing up for that. But I think
the Eagles defending champs with Jamwen Hurst. He plays his
best games in the biggest moments and I give a
ton of credit to that. That's how I came into
(27:51):
the league and grew up in the league, was Belichick
telling us your best players have to be their best
and the biggest games, and Hurst has been that.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Good to talk to you again. Have a fun weekend.
Thank you, Thank you again, Devin.
Speaker 19 (28:01):
No problem. Good to see there.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
That's Devin mccordy, three time Super Bowl champ with the
Patriots and Football Night in America.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
It'll be the Chiefs and the Giants. Tony in Orlando.
Speaker 14 (28:12):
Hi, Tony, Hey, Dan Well, it's going to follow up
around one of the great safety and Cornell Twins in history.
Of course, I'm big Patriots fans. I'll stop by saying
this is funny you talk about the whole bigby name thing.
When I played high school football, my football coach is
something green m Colla Tom and then I'm from New
England and they're like, no, it's the number ten, the
(28:35):
quarterback from Michigan in the late nineties. Anyways, I want
to call up with the Patriots. I think everyone's under
the name in this field. They got a good coach,
Mike Rabel. I think he's going to go fall hopefully
many years full of playoffs. I like Jake May and
I mean yeah, I like Stefan Diggs. I wish we
(28:55):
got Hicam Boxley.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
All right, well, thank you, Tony. You love the Patriots.
Mike Rabel's a good coach, yes, Paul.
Speaker 11 (29:07):
The Patriots right now, fourteenth ranked offense, eighteenth ranked defense,
much improved.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Okay, uh yeah, a little smaller than what nights Seaton.
Seaton's all in Jacob in Colorado. Hi, Jake, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 15 (29:24):
Hey morning, guys. Hey, I lived in Utah when Jimmer
Perdad was tearing it up down to by U and
let's just say that jimmer Mania was not limited only
to the basketball court in that era. There's a lot
of little Jimmers running around down there now.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
All right, thank you, Jacob Jimmer an interesting name though,
But was that his given name? I think we talked
to him about that. Uh Auto in Atlanta? Hi Auto,
what's on your mind?
Speaker 19 (29:56):
Hey?
Speaker 21 (29:57):
Good, one of guys talking about children's names. My last
name is Graham and I'm a junior, so my full
name is Otto Brown, like the Hall of Fame quarterback
from the Cleveland Browns who I never saw a play.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
All right, thank you Otto.
Speaker 11 (30:13):
Yes, Pauli Jimmer for Debt's real name is James Taft
for Debt. His mother when he's a kid, just wanted
to give him a fun nickname.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Oh okay. Uh Jason in Maryland, Hi, Jason.
Speaker 12 (30:28):
Damn, thanks for taking my call. I was just I
was thinking, as a modern sports fan like these days,
it would be super hard to name your kid after
like a you know, you just drafted, you know, say
a Cowboys fan. You just got Michael part in your
in your name and your kid and Micah and then
you know, three or four years later, you're like, Okay,
Michael's going. So you gotta think you now you got
(30:51):
this kid's lying around. It's you know, Michah.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Well, I don't know if the kid's lying around, but
I think that is laying around. Yeah, that kids just
laying around. I think that's when you change his name
to Mike instead of Micah. Or wait till the player
retires if you want to Shuffles in Phoenix is back,
high Shove.
Speaker 17 (31:12):
Good morning, and hearing. Marvin talked about his namesake being
Marvin Gay and then talking about his fantastic childhood nickname.
I thought of STP as a short term, so you
don't have to bring up anything that might get anyone
in trouble. But for some reason, my mind went to
(31:34):
Pandora and FTP singing Reunited, Reunited like Peaches and Herb,
when you open up and you actually have your outdoor
kitchen and you get everything set up there, that would
be my genius idea. Pandora and FTP singing, Peaches and
(31:55):
Herb Reunited, that's my idea.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Thank you, Shuffles. I'll take the idea. I'll keep the ideas, Yes, Todd,
that's kind of.
Speaker 8 (32:06):
Think of tonight. I celebrate my love for you.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
I know we're not doing that.

tough loss. It's a big divisional rival game and this
is at the Chargers with Chargers are a slight favorite
Chiefs of the Giants. The Chiefs are six point favorites
(32:55):
against the g men college number seventeen Texas Tech against
number sixteen Utah. That to me, spicy, I like that one.
That could be an early preview of the Big twelve
title game. And then Illinois and Indiana. It's not basketball,
it's actually football. And who would have thought both are
ranked in the top twenty. Let me see when the
(33:16):
last time, okay, the last time these two teams met
in the game where they were both ranked inside the
top twenty five nineteen fifty Illinois beat Indiana twenty to
nothing in Champagne, Illinois. That's oh no, it's okay. That

They're now tied for first place with hugh Town and
the Al West. How about those Seattle Marinders.
Speaker 8 (34:10):
Are the big dumper?
Speaker 4 (34:12):
See no Connor the big dumper. I'm giving it to
Noah Liles. Noah Liiles at the World Athletics Championships in Tokyo.
He just won the two hundred meter again. This is

you're tying you sain Bolt in anything, that is a
massive week for you and your brand. That was well done,
(34:33):

Speaker 10 (34:35):
I'm gonna go with Texas A and m Football. After
beating Order Dame, they moved up six spots from number sixteen.
Now they're a top ten team in the nation.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Paul Best week in Sports.
Speaker 11 (34:45):
Clayton Kershaw the Dodgers eighteen years with one franchise, having
a nice year at ten to two, going out on
his own terms and in the playoffs. Fantastic career.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Here's Clayton Kershaw yesterday talking about the announcement.
Speaker 22 (34:58):
Yeah, I can't think of a a better season to
go it out, go out, and we still have a
lot to accomplish obviously this month, and the last thing
I want to do is be a distraction to anybody
for accomplishing our ultimate goal to win in the last
game of the season. So we're going to get through
this today and then we're going to go win the
rest of the games and be good.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
I'm gonna win them and be good. And I don't
think they're the favorites to win the World Series. I
think I think the Phillies are now the favorites to
win the World Series, at least the last odds that
I saw.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
But it's going to be fun.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
This doesn't feel like it's you know, whoever gets into
the World Series from the American League is going to
be a sacrificial lamb. It feels like it'll be pretty
competitive there, at least I'm hoping it is. Garrett in Illinois, Hi, Garrett,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 23 (35:49):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (35:50):
Just thanks for having me. So regarding the whole sports
name topic, yeah, my mom wanted My mom wanted to
name me Payne Stewart Carlson. My dad was not having
any of it. So anyways, fast forward ten years later,
we're at the Western Opening by Chicago, and while in
a bathroom, my dad asked who we're going to be
following on the course, and my dad said Payne Stewart.
(36:11):
And right when he said that, Payne Stewart walked into
the bathroom and just how you know, upbeat. He was
just oh really, And so my dad ended up telling
him the whole story while he's going to the bathroom,
and so he ended up talking to me to golf
ball on the course and I got a signature on
the program. But it was only a couple of years later,
of course what happened. But yeah, that was I thought
(36:33):
pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
He had a lot of energy, Thank you, Gerrett. He
had a lot of energy. He was confident, cocky, but
came up big. Alex in Tennessee, Hi Alex, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 23 (36:46):
Hey Dan? What's going on?
Speaker 19 (36:47):
Man?
Speaker 23 (36:47):
First time, long time, five ten, two fifteen. I'm just
going in about the sports names that live about our
rights side of Knoxville. We were tightened season ticket holders,
and it's nothing that you can handle, even worse than
going to a Titans game. See a bunch of blue
eighteen jerseys showing up and everybody is named Peyton.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
Yeah, yeah, I'll bet there might have been more babies
named after Peyton Manning than Tom Brady. Peyton's great name.
Paul's daughter's named Peyton. Willie in Cleveland, Hi Willie, Hey.
Speaker 24 (37:26):
Dan, thanks for calling me back. First time, long time
sixty A sixty year old ex linebacker hard to forty.
My full name is Robert William Mays. My dad was
a sports writer in northwestern Pennsylvania, and he had me
(37:48):
convinced for the first twelve or fifteen years of my
life that I was named after Roberto Clemente and Willie Mays.
I get to college, I'm playing linebacker and head coach
has a hard time remember my name and he starts
calling me Willy, although it is my middle name, and
it stuck with me. And I'm now sixty and for
(38:08):
the last forty years of my life I've been Willy Nade.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
Thank you, Willy. A great player to be named after.
I'm going to guess Mickey for Mickey Mantle. Probably if
you start to look, you know, some of those names
like they became larger than life because they weren't on
TV all the time. You didn't get to see them.
The American League played the American League, National League played
the National League. But there are probably some names where
(38:34):
you go, man, the almost like the mythology of that person.
Speaker 11 (38:40):
Yeah, Paul, I'm met the baby named Tracker and Mickey
had a big spike in the mid fifties, as you'd expect.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
Donnie and Fresno, Hi, Donnie, all right, Dan, first.
Speaker 25 (38:50):
Time, longtime, six sixty. So my son was born a
little over seven years ago, and then that happened in
the nine months before that was the Justin Turner plodoff,
And nine months later my wife and I have a.
Speaker 24 (39:09):
Son named Turner.
Speaker 25 (39:10):
First name, middle named Davis after Davis Love.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Oh, all right, hey, as long as you can get
it by the goalie you know when your wife is delivered.
I still go back to, uh, Brad Johnson. Brad Johnson, quarterback,
convinced his wife to name their son Maximus Johnson.
Speaker 11 (39:33):
You give your kid that name, he may go into
a different industry.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
I think he's still playing college quarterback. I think he's
still Max Johnson. We had him on and I said,
how did you pull that off?
Speaker 11 (39:49):
He's twenty four years old and he's on the targeels.
Speaker 3 (39:52):
He's Max Johnson.
Speaker 2 (39:53):
Yeah, with Bill Belichick, Bill Belichick out my Max Johnson.
Speaker 11 (40:00):
And Max Johnson. No middle name. Just let it be
no room for a middle name.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
Yeah, Trent did in Virginia. I Trent.
Speaker 26 (40:13):
Oh speaking of being named after athletes. So funny story.
My wife was born in April of ninety four. She
was a few months premature, so her parents haven't really
decided on her name yet. And there was this name
Tanya all over the news, so they named her Tanya.
Then later they found out, uh what Tanya Harding was
on the news for.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
Oh boy, oh boy, thank you, Trent.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
Tanya Harding, special special place in my heart for Tanya Hardy.
H What do you think Tanya is doing now? Maybe
a greeter at Walmart or something, checking yes, yes.
Speaker 8 (40:55):
What's this bodygd pull up to that interrupted that.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
I know.
Speaker 8 (40:58):
We're go keep it.
Speaker 2 (40:59):
We're gonna keep it cool, and Paul once talk to you.
Huh all, Hey, we're not going there, okay, all right,
all right, two hours in the books, one more to
go back after this
