Sunday Night, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs and a must
win situation against the g Men. Primetime Showdown Sunday sevent
Eastern on NBC and Peacock, which is where you'll find
this program. Thank you for downloading the app. You can watch,
or you can listen, or you can watch and listen
over four hundred cities carrying this award nominated program eight
(00:46):
seven to seven three DP. Show operator Tyler sitting by.
He'll take your calls and Seaton. The final poll question
for this week is what well this is on the
I just got this. This isn't a pole question actually,
but it's great about the name thing that we've been
talking about.
Speaker 5 (00:59):
Yeah, this person just wrote and it's not sports related,
but I have two sons here. My wife had no idea,
but their names are Johnny and Body.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
From point Break. Wow.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Once again, if when your wife delivers and she's probably
had an epidural and you know, drugged up, and you're
trying to come up with names. Just the fact that
Brad Johnson said to his wife, I got a name
Maximus Johnson, and somehow they signed off on that. And
he's a quarterback at North Carolina right now, all right,
(01:35):
so we'll get phone calls coming up. Yeah, I don't
know how we stumbled on sports names. I don't remember
any of my friends being named after athletes, but Kobe
was a big name.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Certainly after he died.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Those twelve months after, I think the number of parents
who named their children Kobe went up like two hundred percent.
Floyd Mayweather was a name that was on there. I'm like,
who's name in their kid Floyd or Mayweather? Any other
names on there? Shack I understand that there was a
wave there where Shack or some version of Shaquille was
(02:11):
was pretty big.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
All right. So the pole question for the final hour
of the program.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
Let me also update you real quick. We had from
the twenty twenty draft other van Jalen Hurts, who will
end up having the best career. It's justin Herbert is
just barely edging out Joe Burrow and Jordan Love. But
Joe Burrow and Jordan Love are very very close. They're
at about splitting about thirty percent.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
If Joe Burrow wasn't hurt right now, he might be
leading this pole question.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
The Dolphins put up a good fight last night. They
were twelve and a half point underdogs, but Buffalo Bills
didn't commit a turnover and they improved to three and oho.
The Dolphins one turnover and it wasn't like TWOA got sacked,
he got hit once. But they fall to zero and three.
Now they get around ten nine, ten days, and then
(02:58):
they're going to be playing the Jets in a State
Loane game on Monday night. The voice of Miami, Dan Lebotard,
host of Metal Arc Media's The Dan Levittard Show, which
you can find on this channel. Peacock, Is that right, Dan?
Right after us?
Speaker 6 (03:14):
You do?
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Okay? I just want to make sure that.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Yes, thank you, Yes, okay. I want to get in
on your name's game here though. Can I want to
which is the more interesting name fact here in this
in this equation I'm giving you that all of George
Foreman's kids were named George, including his daughter who was
named Georgette, or that Dennis Rodman, one of nineteen children
his father, was actually named Philander.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Would you ever name your child after an athlete? And
if so, which athlete?
Speaker 7 (03:48):
Well?
Speaker 4 (03:48):
I am childless and I have not given this question
any thought. This is why you're the great one that
you are in terms of interviewing. Would I name my
child after an athlete? No, I don't think I would
do that. I would have to do that. I think
I would take if I was going to name them
after a family member and not just a name the
name I liked, I would name it after a family member,
I should say, not not an athlete. I would not
(04:08):
do that.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
So like Marino Lebtard, Lebron Lebutard, Oh are you still
bitter over lebron leaving Miami?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Clearly?
Speaker 6 (04:19):
Not?
Speaker 8 (04:19):
If I was just.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Clearly, I'm hugely grateful. If if what I just did
there is name a time, How ridiculous would that mean?
Poor and poor little Lebron Lebtard?
Speaker 8 (04:31):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
How about Riley Riley LeBatard after pat Riley? Your good
buddy could.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Be a boy or a girl.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
I could go Pat.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
I could go Pat and it could be a boy
or a girl. I could go Riley and it could
be a boy or a girl.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Probably not Tua. But let's let's let's dissect here what
we've seen. It is the weather or the temperature underneath.
Mike McDaniel Warmer today.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Well, that game, they were well coached last night. That's
an out man team with I think a historically bad defense.
And I don't believe that coaching is the reason that
they lost that game. They've got a fundamental architectural problem here, Dan,
in that I believe that's the best game the Dolphins
can play, and they're doing it by throwing the ball
as many times behind the line of scrimmage as they
(05:19):
are past the line of scrimmage. Now, that whole game
last night, the average air yards in that game for
Josh Allen and Tua one point four yards one point
four yards on completion. So a lot of the league
is doing that. But when I say they have a
structural problem, Dan, here's the structural problem. Because they're no
longer what they were, which was the best offense in
(05:39):
the league. They're constipated on offense and Jalen Waddle and
Tyreek Hill don't look like they can give you much.
But Josh Allen against the Dolphins is in the regular
season thirteen and two, eight and zero at home. He's
got forty five total touchdowns and eight interceptions against the Dolphins.
On the other side, the Dolphins have now lost four
(06:01):
of their last seventeen and eight in a row against
winning teams. And here's the structural flaw. And Tua's cap
hit the next four years is more than Josh Allen's
cap hit in Buffalo, and that's obviously an issue that's
not going to go away for a while.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
I just don't understand why they jumped the gun on
Tua with his performance, his injury history, and they could
have kept him another year, they could have franchised him.
I'm just trying to understand from the front office, from ownership,
where they go, Nope, we got to sign this guy up.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Now, why they're wildly mismanaged. They've got a GM who's
got the longest tenure in the league without winning a
playoff game. They have not enough good players, and they
got fooled by scoring seventy points against the Broncos and
having a comeback against the Ravens, which a lot of
people do late in games. The Ravens have blown seventeen
(06:59):
seven and half leads, and they got enamored with they
had the best offense in the league. And more than that,
Dan and this part matters. They had exciting offense. They
were the fastest team in the league. But now you
look up and they're accused of being soft and not
physical enough. And the three guys that they have on
offense that you need things from Wattle Hill and to
(07:21):
all physically undersized. Like, yeah, they were fast and speed burns,
but speed also ages. And their offense is you know,
it's a bit like a Ferrari in that if a
spark plug is off, it doesn't run right. There's not
a lot of margin freer. I think one of the
stats last night they had two they had a drive
(07:45):
that had multiple successful attempts on third and ten, and
it's the first time they've had that since twenty twenty two.
Like they used to be a big play offense. But
now what they had to do in that game last night,
is you a perfect sixteen play drive that converts a
bunch of third downs and just keep Josh Allen off
the field for a while because we can't do this
(08:08):
anymore where what we used to do is we'll have
a scoring drive that goes one, two or three plays,
not sixteen.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
How safe is Mike McDaniel.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Safer today than he was before the game? Right? Because
I really thought that whole game Dan was gonna go
the way the first half did, which is just keep
handing the ball to James Cook and he's gonna get
nine yards every time. And that you know, they didn't
stop him in the first half. And the most stunning
thing for me to happen to this season for the
Dolphins is that they stop the Bills at all in
the second half. Like I don't know, you know, the
(08:39):
Bills still scored thirty one points, but the fact that
the Bills were punting in the second half, I've seen
no evidence from this team that it can stop anybody. Dan,
I really do believe that the defense is historically bad.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Talking to Dan Levittard and a host of Metal Lark
Media is the Dan Lebotard show that follows this on Peacock.
You know, when you're quirky and you win, we're fine
with that. When you're quirky and you don't win, then
all of a sudden we start to pick apart your
answers at a press conference. Here has the quirkiness, the
nerdiness of Mike McDaniel warn off in South Florida.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
Yeah, that part is obvious, But the glee with which
the quirkiness is being mocked by the Rex Ryans of
the world who seemed to be delighting and calling him
nerd boy and mcgenius because he had some of that
Brandon Staley stuff where, oh, you think you're smarter than
everyone else.
Speaker 7 (09:32):
Do you?
Speaker 4 (09:33):
He had reason to write for a minute, he had
reason to believe that when they had the best offense
in the league and Raheem Mostert had eighteen touchdowns at
the running back position because it didn't seem to matter
whether his offensive line was any good or not. They
had offense. He took a quarterback that all of us
wondered about and had that quarterback leading what was the
(09:54):
best offense in the league. But there's something else happening
with McDaniel, right, Because we don't really want our coaches
to be interesting. They're they're better off being public faces
and voices for a team. Jim Harbaugh is awfully quirky
Dan like. I like him, but fans kind of would
(10:18):
prefer that their coach just sort of be presidential, be
somebody who connotes leadership and doesn't do very much with
interesting sound bites. Like in the history of sports, when
you think of the coaches who are real personalities, you
know whatever, Steve Spurrier, Mike Leech, They're just there aren't
(10:39):
very many that you think of Jerry Glanville, there just
aren't very many that are wild personalities. They you know,
Andy Reid, Bill Belichick. That tends to be what you get.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Fans in South Florida. Would they rather have the you
be great or the Dolphins to be great?
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Oh that's a good question, because I'm gonna say the
Dolphins because it's the you know, fifty years of Dolphin
football includes a time and I don't think your audience
has any recollection of this. It includes a time where
the Dolphins were the winningest franchise in all of sports,
not just in football. They won by percentage more often
(11:19):
than everyone else. And now they've got the longest drought
in the sport, a sport that includes you know, the Bills.
For a while, when seventeen seasons without getting to the playoffs.
The Raiders haven't done anything in the playoffs in a
long time, but the longest drought belongs to the Miami Dolphins.
And this began as a football town because of the
Miami Dolphins. We still have an expressway here named after
(11:42):
Don Shula because of what the Dolphins did a long
time ago. And the Miami Hurricanes have had some recent success,
some success this century. The last playoff game the Dolphins won,
Dan Lamar Smith scored a touchdown. Again it's the Colts.
It was not on television locally that there was a
(12:05):
Dolphin playoff game that was so long ago that you
could not see it locally in Miami.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Can you think of another franchise where when you go
to the game, you see this jersey and it's a
jersey that is from a player who played decades ago
in Dan Marino, like of all the different now you
might see that with the Jets maybe, or the Bears
with Walter Payton, But when you're thinking about the Dolphins,
(12:35):
do you see other jerseys of you know, you know,
anybody besides Dan Marino in the building.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
They're a good amount of TUA supporters. It is hard
to support some of the things Tyreek Hill is, even
if you're excited by him on the field, but this
has been a fan base that is unusually starved for
excellence because it's become a regional team, Dan, it's not
a nat team. And one of the reasons that we're
(13:02):
talking about them now is because for about a sixteen
game span or maybe a twenty game span, they had
an offense that was interesting, that could make big plays,
and so for one brief moment there, this team had
expectations that had people talking about it nationally. And what
I've been surprised by the first three weeks of this season.
(13:23):
You tell me if I have this wrong, because there
are plenty of bad teams in that league, the Jets,
the Saints, Carolina, but national laughingstock from coast to coast
over the first three weeks of the season. That's been
because they've got three very polarizing things as the face
of their national identity, McDaniel, Tua and Tyreek Hill. And
(13:44):
the weirdest thing about that, Dan, is I think TWOA
is the most polarizing of the three. Think about that
for a second, and it's just because we haven't been
able to accurately measure, what is this guy like? Is
he is he a franchise quarterback or is he not
a franchise quarterback? That discussion made the conversation around to
him more polarizing than the one around McDaniel, who can
(14:06):
give off the quirkiness you speak of, and Tyreek Hill,
who does some pretty awful things as being a menace
to women and children.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Thank you for taking time, Thank you for having me
my best to the family.
Speaker 7 (14:21):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
I'm going to go home right now. And this is
too much information, obviously, but see if I can try
and make a little.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Lebron LeBatard who.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Look at the pure and interests of Dan.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Patrick's cardle, I feel bad for your wife.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
My undulating sensuality is not persuasive to you.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Thank you, Dan, Dan Lebtard. Did you hear that, Todd?
Speaker 9 (14:54):
It's pretty wild stuff over there.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
Yeah, I'm rooting for him.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Or in.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Let's go metal art media is the Dan Levittard Show.
You'll find it on YouTube, but you also find it
on peacock. It follows our show. Okay, let's take a break,
let's regroup here, come up with a new poll question.
More phone calls as well. It's a meat Friday, and
of course it's part of my job to inspect the
meat Friday. And the chili looks delicious, and might I
(15:26):
say it tastes delicious too. It's beef and cheriso chili.
I remember when McLevin was out having sneaking food on
a Friday and a meat Friday, and I could see
him because I got cameras all over the place. And
then I go out.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
And I said what are you doing?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
And it goes what And I said, no, wait until
everybody else has meat Friday. And he goes, well, you
had some. I go, my name is the show here, knucklehead?
It was not that. And when he said, yeah, I
don't know about the ribs, they didn't fall off the bone.
That one was that didn't go well either, not exactly
(16:03):
falling off the ball.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
I don't know, he said, not his best work.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Yeah, unfortunately, Yes, it was all right, let's take a
break here, let's.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Take a break here. We'll come back after this Dan
Patrick Show.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Hey it's me Rob Parker.

Check out my weekly MLB podcast, Inside the Parker, for
twenty two minutes of piping hot baseball talk featuring the
biggest names of newsmakers in the sport. Whether you believe

bases covered. New episodes drop every Thursday, so do yourself
a favor and listen to Inside the Parker with Rob
(16:51):
Parker on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcast.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
We've talked a lot about the Tom Brady the appearance
of a conflict of interest being a broadcaster but also
being part owner of the Raiders and then being in
the coaching booth. Antonio Pierce, the former Raiders head coach,
was on Mad Dog Radio and he talked about Tom
Brady being a broadcaster and a minority owner.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Michael Jordan was the owner for a long time of
NBA team and then just recently I believe he was
announced to be with nbcit correctly.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
YEP as helping him out.
Speaker 6 (17:27):
That didn't happen while he was owner, So this is
unprecedent what we're seeing. I think I would be uncomfortable
if there was the other way around, to be honest
with you, because You're not dealing with this a normal person.
Tom Brady is the elite of elite, one of the
greatest quarterbacks, one of the greatest players in the game.
It's not far for him to watch a few things
on a Friday practice or hear things in the production
meets and be like h and have tidbits. And he'd
(17:51):
be foolish enough to think that he does not want
to share that with the Raiders, because we had those
conversations about certain things, right, and he was very informative
about things that he's you are you still And that's
why you bringing a guy like Tom bringing into the
organization to be a minority.
Speaker 11 (18:04):
Organ because he gives you those.
Speaker 6 (18:05):
Aspects and different insights that some people can't give you.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Antonio Pierce, the former Raiders head coach, with Adam Shine
on Mad Dog Radio, it's it might die down a
little bit, but then it's going to come back up.
When the Bears play the Raiders in a week after
the Bears play the Cowboys and Tom is calling that game,
It's going to come back.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
It's not going away this year.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
And I think eventually the NFL is going to nudge
Tom into maybe make a decision here and he would
side with being the minority owner of the Raiders. Jeff
in Youngstown, Hi, Jeff, how you knowing?
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Dan good?
Speaker 12 (18:44):
Jeff six one two eight. So my athletic back in
the day. Okay, my son when he was born named
them Spike after Spike Owns from the Boston Red Sox.
Left the hospital all to come back two and a
half days later, after a weekend of beer slides in
(19:05):
my house and having a little bit of a party,
my wife changed.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
His name and changed it from Spike to what Derek Derek, But.
Speaker 12 (19:16):
The name Spike stuck nickname spec for rest his life right.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Maybe she was a Yankee fan called him Derek Derek Jeter,
Spike Owen Whendy You Texas Longhorn, I believe Zachary in Pennsylvania, Hi, zach.
Speaker 11 (19:33):
Hi Dan, So, I know you were talking about the
Push Push earlier and they said they wanted to crack
down more and called the play tighter.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (19:43):
Uh, well, uh. There's a weekly show that's done by
the Eagles left tackle Jordan Mylatta, and he brought up
the point that not only on a majority of those
plays the defense lining up off side or I guess
within the neutral zone, But they're also actually calling out
(20:03):
the Eagles cadence, trying to get them to jump off side.
So if they're gonna call the play tighter, are they
gonna call it tighter both ways? Because the article that
I read seems like they were gearing it more towards
calling it tighter on the offense and not on the defense.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yeah, but these defenses are desperate and they're trying to
gain an advantage. Can we can we mimic your cadence?
Can we get you to jump off sides? Are we
in the neutral zone? This is how this play will
be eliminated from the NFL next year, in my opinion,
because you can't officiate it all right, there's way too
(20:40):
much going on here. All they have to do is
take out the person in the backfield and then you
could still do what is called a quarterback snake, and
nobody can have a problem with that. But yes, I
could see where the defense is lining up off sides
in the neutral zone and if they're calling out your
case stand all of this, But the play is here,
(21:03):
so you got to deal with it. But you know,
when you have Mark Maskiw the Washington Post say that
the NFL is is putting the Eagles on notice.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
The Eagles shouldn't be nice.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
The officials who didn't call it correctly should be unnoticed.
Brandon in Oklahoma, Hi Brandon, what's on your mind?
Speaker 6 (21:24):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Dan?
Speaker 13 (21:24):
First time, long time, six foot a lean one sixty five.
So a couple things. My son is Finley Alexander warickx
middle named Alexander after Alexander Emmanuel Rodriguez. And second part
is nineteen ninety eight. I think spring training Port Charlotte, Florida,
(21:46):
Texas Rangers. You and Pud Rodriguez did a I think
Sports Center commercial. Yes, around the pitchers Now, I was
in the background playing catch. I never saw that commercial air.
Then I wondered if.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
You remember that.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
I do remember being there in Port Charlotte and uh,
spend some time with Pudge.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
We were doing a few of those with athletes.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I did one with Mike Piazza as well that that
was a big campaign with Sports Center.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Alan in Toledo, Hi, Alan, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (22:21):
Hey? Dan? Six foot, three hundred pounds, beefy. Hey, I
went liveen to your show twenty four years ago.
Speaker 14 (22:28):
You were probably on ESPN radio at the time. I
was on my way to work. Some guy called it
and he said he named his son espen Espn. Well,
not thinking my wife is gonna get pregnant again. Six
months later, she's pregnant and we named our son espen Patrick,
the singer, so using your last name.
Speaker 8 (22:49):
But he spent we spelled the named esp Een and
he tent two and two weeks.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
And your wife was fine with that, Yes, she was that.
Speaker 8 (22:59):
Some other people weren't. But you know, we looked him
up and there was the guy Espens and I don't
remember if you remember his story. Yeah, yeah, so it
was a real name. So it's esp e N and uh.
One of the teachers at work when at school, when
he was the school, he used to call him. They
used to give that they.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Well, thank you for sharing, Alan, Yeah, I remember that.
That was a big deal with somebody named their kid
espen espen Patrick.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
All right, thank you. I'm honored. Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 15 (23:34):
Word of advice for anybody that's about to have a
baby or will in the future, don't tell people what
you're going to name the baby.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
It's very important, God, yes, because somebody will have a story,
a negative story, or they know somebody or knew somebody
who had that name, and then all of a sudden
this happened with my mother in law. It didn't matter
what name. She had a problem with everybody. And I
said to my wife, I said, hunt, let's not tell her.
(24:02):
Let's not tell her the next one. Okay, lie to her, Yes, Paulie.
Speaker 16 (24:09):
But there's also the thing when you like to run
it by someone so you don't make a mistake, like
either at the hospital, some type of neutral party or
budsmen to say, like, don't name your kid that he's
gonna get beat up.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Well, okay, Marvin's grandmother named Marvin, and Marvin said that
he was made fun of because he was named after
Marvin Gay. And you know how kids can be. And
if I said to his grandmother, you know they're gonna
brough him up. I'm guessing your grandmother, as tough as
she is, would still say, hey, he'll, he'll, he'll survive.
Speaker 15 (24:43):
Build's character.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Yeah, yeah, Build's character. I didn't need an budsman to
help me with any of my names. Me we couldn't
get out of the hospital. Now, Okay, my wife and
I had this discussion the other night. You have to
name your child when you leave the hospital.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Is that correct? Is that universal in the United States?
Speaker 16 (25:06):
Generally they want the paperwork done and filled out before
you leave the hospital. You could change it on your own,
but no.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
But you have to have a name for your baby
when you leave the hospital.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
Correct, because we did change it six weeks later.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
But I think legally they don't allow you to get
out of the hospital because I said to her, and
she doesn't remember really when she delivered, you know, one
of my daughters, and I said, Hunt, they said you
got to have a name.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
I don't remember that. I go on, you don't remember anything.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
I'm telling you that they put the pressure on me
because we thought that the baby was going to be
a boy. We didn't have any girls' names. I said, Hun,
just pick a name. So next thing you know, we
got a name. Let's get out of here. Six weeks later,
we're at the courthouse and we're changing the name.
Speaker 16 (25:54):
Yes, Paul, I read this that you do not necessarily
have to name your baby before leaving the hospital. But
it's much easier because the baby the hospital takes care
of the paperwork on your behalf. If you leave the
hospital without giving the baby the name, you have to
do the paperwork with the state or city on your
own at.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
A later date.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Yeah. And I don't even know how we came up
with Emily.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
It's like and I go, okay, let's go to I
don't care, let's go let's get out of here. And
then all of a sudden we started getting baby gifts
and the baby's name was on like a little stool
that you stand on to brush your teeth. And we
had a babysitter who came over and she finally goes,
whatever happened to Emily, and we go, oh, my gosh, No,
we named her Georgia, named her after her father or
(26:38):
her grandfather George.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yes. Time.
Speaker 9 (26:40):
I'd be bummed people like giving personalized gifts.
Speaker 17 (26:42):
Then to finally just randomly picked the name that was
going to be changed six weeks later. I bought the
special stuff to pay extra and you're trying to find
the fancy thing to put their name on it. It's not
even gonna be their name.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
Of course, you'd make it about you. Thank you, Todd.
Speaker 9 (26:54):
That's not cool.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Uh, pedro in La Hi, Well you didn't get, you know,
a baby gift for any of my kids.
Speaker 9 (27:01):
That's not fair. It's true, kid.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Uh Pedro in la Hi Pedro, Hey guys, good morning,
longtime listener for some color six six.
Speaker 18 (27:14):
Oh two fifty five. First off, shout out to the
Grand High Grand High School Lancers, where I'm a math
teacher Colin. Regarding the names, I don't know if you
guys have heard that in Colombia a couple named their
kids chat GPT. They didn't just type GPT, they spelled
it out in Spanish, so it's a whole new name.
(27:37):
I think it's making it's going to make it in
twenty twenty five. What do you guys think?
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Thank you Pedro chat GBT. Is that what he said?
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Well?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Good luck?
Speaker 16 (27:50):
You know, Paul, you know that nothing makes this is
I'm Bill Pullman level of anger right now. Nothing makes
me mad, more mad than when parents make it about
themselves and the jutriment of their child with names.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Because Paul doesn't like the late after Bill Polm, everyone knows,
oh he is yes, no, no, he was late for
a meeting. I'm oh, you thought I meant he was dead?
Get oh, let me see uh Caveon in Phoenix, my caveon.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Happy to meet Friday boys. Thank you.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
I first thought very excited about my youthes taken on
Texas Tech tomorrow, go Utes. And I named my son
Stockton after the greatest point guard in NBA history.
Speaker 8 (28:35):
John stock.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I'm good with stock you. As my mom said, and
she had twelve kids. If you have him, you name him.
And she never ever said anything about you know a
name and why'd you do that? Or never nothing? Yes, Todd,
what happens?
Speaker 17 (28:58):
And I could relate to this certain extent. What if
your kid ends up being kind of a Stocky fellow
and now he's Stocky Stockton and just kind of walked
into a problem there just because you wanted to honor
a jazz basketball player.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
I don't think his last name was Stockton. I think is, But.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Either way, I guess you know that you would have
to factor that into.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
It's like having you know name speed, Yeah, and you're
not fast Dart. You know Pete in Florida High Pete.
What's on your mind?
Speaker 19 (29:32):
And it's a real pleasure. How you doing, Danetz? How's
it going? I have three kids named after athletes. I
was a huge Philadelphia Philly fan back in the day,
and my oldest son, Steve, is named after Steve Carlton.
My next son is Mike after Mike Schmidt, and my
third son is Jeff after Jeff Hostetler, who was born
(29:55):
two days after the Giants beat the Bills in that
Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
I would have called him Has, Yes, has not Jaff
do it?
Speaker 11 (30:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Is it too late to change his name Pete?
Speaker 19 (30:09):
Yeah, that's for sure. But the funny thing is is
my wife didn't catch on until like years later.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
So yeah, I would have called him has.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
I thought he was going to say name one of
his kids Dalton after Darren Dutch Dalton, Yes, Martin.
Speaker 15 (30:24):
He was a Giants man. I thought Lawrence Taylor whatever
his last name.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
Is, Yes, Todd.
Speaker 17 (30:29):
I don't want to rain on anybody's parade, but you
run the risk if you name someone after an athlete
or famous person and then they get into some kind
of horrific trouble with the law. And they may have
been great once, but we know of certain people that
used to run for many yards of the Buffalo Bills.
All of a sudden, you're honoring someone at one plan.
Next thing, you know, that's what's on top of their
Google card.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
I like how you don't want to rain on anybody's parade,
but there is that way, your whole DNA is to
rain on somebody's per This person was great back.
Speaker 17 (30:57):
In the day, but then all of a sudden they
committed some horrible act. And that's what you who you
were named after?
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Pete in Charlotte, Hi, Pete, Hey.
Speaker 20 (31:04):
DP second time, long time. I have a friend of
mine who, uh, his wife named his child the first
name Nosmo, second name King.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
Yeah, I've heard this before, Thank you, Pete, no smoking,
no smoke King. Yeah, yeah, I had heard that. You
know who told me that? And the late Howie Schwab
said that his wife worked in a hospital and there
(31:37):
was a sign that the family didn't have a name,
and they decided and their last name was King. Now
Howie Schwab stumped the Schwab swore that this was true.
Their last name was King, and they called the baby
Nosmo as no smoking. I'm gonna trust the great Howie Schwab. Yes, Pauline,
(31:59):
that's where secure already.
Speaker 16 (32:00):
The hospital should turn those parents around, walk them upstairs
and put them in a room and say we got
to fix this.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
When we come back. The most must win game of
the weekend the mmwgt W.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
We're back after this.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio
dot com and within the iHeartRadio app. Search FSR to

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Last call for phone calls, what we learn, what's in
store for Monday, This day in sports History, and the
most must win game of the weekend the mmwg ot
W Paulie, I'm going to start with you.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
The most must win game of the weekend is Notre Dame.
Speaker 16 (32:41):
Versus Purdue is too obvious, so I'm going to go
Illinois fighting a line versus Indiana. Illinois rank ninth. If
they can get a couple more wins before that Ohio
State game, they can afford a loss to Ohio State
and maybe sneak in the playoffs. But they have to
win before that, so I have to beat India.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
Todd the most must win game of the weekend, Paul,
he took.
Speaker 9 (33:01):
Me out of going with Notre Dame having to beat Produce.
I'm gonna go with the other obvious one. On the
NFL side, the Chiefs do not want to go to
in three by.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Losing maybe not one. They should not.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
Lose and they should not lose to them, and they
can't be oh in three.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
I always like when a quarterback throws an interception and
the announcer goes, he'd like to have that one back. Really,
what if he said, no, it was a good throw.
You know whatn't my fault? Seaton most must win game
of the weekend, Your Tennessee Titans must win.
Speaker 5 (33:28):
Whoa, this is a must win game for the Tennessee Titans.
They're playing Indianapolis. They're about to go on the road
for three straight, four out of five, something like that.
They've lost eight straight games going back to last season.
You need to turn this one around. They've lost four
consecutive divisional games. They need to win this weekend. What
(33:49):
if they end up with the number one pick in
the draft and he already took your quarterback. Yeah, great, pressures.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Off unless you look at another quarterback and you go,
he might be better.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
This is supposed to be a quarterback rich draft.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Oh by the way, every year the following year it's
a quarterback rich draft.
Speaker 16 (34:09):
Yes, point, I got a quick pie in the face
bet the number one pick in the upcoming draft will
not be a quarterback.
Speaker 7 (34:16):
Not be.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
So.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
Arch Manning isn't going to come out now? Okay, does
anybody want to bet that the number one pick in
the draft is not a quarterback?
Speaker 3 (34:31):
Melvin Now, I'm with Paula on this one.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
Oh you are, well, who do you think is going
to be the number one pick in the draft?
Speaker 4 (34:40):
Not a quarterback?
Speaker 15 (34:42):
I'm gonna say edge rusher?
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Okay. Most must win game of the weekend, Mormon.
Speaker 15 (34:51):
The Chicago Bears. They got a game at home against
the Cowboys, and Ben Johnson just called out your team
for lack of effort.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
It has to be the Chiefs because we're looking at
the bigger picture of the Chiefs being back as the Chiefs,
winning a division, making the playoffs, being a Super Bowl contender.
Speaker 17 (35:10):
Yes, Hunt, If the Bears don't give a championship caliber
effort against the Cowboys, what are we going to say
about Chicago on Monday.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
That they didn't give a championship caliber performance?
Speaker 9 (35:21):
You're a Ben's ready to take them to the NFC
title game. I mean you're one.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
Okay, all right, you better worry about your Broncos against
I have.
Speaker 9 (35:30):
Some concerns about that game. Do you need to win
that for first place? After three weeks?
Speaker 2 (35:35):
This day in sports history, you know, the Texans are
getting into the most must win game of the weekend
as well.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
This day in sports history Paul.
Speaker 16 (35:44):
Nineteen ninety nine, Sammy Sosa became the first Major League
ball player to hit sixty home runs twice. And this
is a fun one, well not for him. Tom Gamboa
of the Kansaity Royals first base coach, I think, was
attacked by a man and his son a Commiss Park.
Stay in there for first base. They the two men
were charged with battery.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
But the weird part was it was beat up a
first base coach day at Comisky, So I think it
was you get to bring your son and beat up
a first base coach.
Speaker 16 (36:16):
Their bonding, their dad and their son. They're having fun together.
Speaker 12 (36:19):
What sponsor?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
They went to jail? They went to jail together. Hey,
let's continue to bond in jail. Dad, Brian and grand Rapids.
Hi Brian, Hey Dan, how are you guys?

hold on for twelve? Can I stay alive for twelve
more years?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
I think?
Speaker 11 (37:20):
So?
Speaker 9 (37:21):
Yeah, a lot more than that.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
Thank you, Tom. Hopefully you're taking the over. Yeah, but
you're mister negativity.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
So I don't know.
Speaker 9 (37:26):
I just don't like morbid talk. And you're gonna live
a very very long life.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
No, I'm not.
Speaker 9 (37:31):
I'm many many years.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
Do you think you're helping me live a longer life?
Speaker 16 (37:36):
Wow, I'm sorry, I'm a fair question.
Speaker 17 (37:40):
I'm gonna probably lean towards no, but not intentionally, I know.
But you probably provide a certain amount of aggravation and
that effects blood pressure, and you know, you may want
to get some labs drawn in the coming days to
see where you're.
Speaker 9 (37:53):
At, some labs for your local Quest Lab center.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
So I might not live as long as I should
because of this job, because of me specifically. You called out, Yes,
I did horrible thing. Will you start listening to me
a little more?
Speaker 11 (38:11):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (38:11):
I will know you. You know what if you're putting
it on me, No, there's no way you.
Speaker 9 (38:15):
I don't need that kind of guilt.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
I wonderful I had anything to do with that.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
I thought he was gonna live through his ninety All
eyes are going to be on you at the weight.
Speaker 9 (38:24):
Dirty looks.
Speaker 4 (38:26):
That's pritty.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
He's the one woul always aggravate them.
Speaker 9 (38:27):
You'd have to do the gong and the code of silence.
He aggravated him. That's what happened.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
I know you're gonna walk in. My wife's gonna be there, and.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
Then you're gonna go.
Speaker 4 (38:34):

He was having some heart blood pressure is aggravation. Stupid
mock headlines.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
You did this.
Speaker 1 (38:43):
This is your fault.
Speaker 9 (38:44):
How dare you show up to this? You didn't care.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
He cared so much about you, Todd, and you didn't reciprocate.
Speaker 9 (38:54):
Please leave, take your bangel and cream cheese and showing
up here. I just have that hot for a second.
