Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour on this Thursday. The great Al
Michaels will stop by. He's on the call for the
Jets Patriots tonight. The Jets are giving six to the
suddenly new and improved Patriots eight seven to seven to
three DP show, try to get to more phone calls.
Brewers clinch the Nation League Central. It was great to
(00:22):
see them bring Bob Yuker, the legendary Bob Yuker, into
the celebration in the locker room. He's ninety years of
age now.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I'm fortunate to be able to text with him occasionally
if I hear one of his calls or I'm just
thinking about him, and he responds right away, and he's
still so sharp and funny. So I wasn't good at
text him last night. I'll wait and send him a
note today. But it was great to see him celebrate
with the Brewers. The Yankees clinch to play on spot
(00:52):
as well. Dave Roberts, Dodger manager, will join us on
the program tomorrow show. Hey Otani, it's not a question
in my mind that he gets to fifty stolen bases
with ten games to go. Will he get to fifty
home runs, it doesn't diminish, It just means we don't
get round numbers there that we can celebrate Peacock. Thank
you if you watching our streaming partner, Fox Sports Radio,
(01:15):
iHeartRadio over four hundred cities in America that carried this program.
Jordan Love is back at practice. Will he be able
to play against the Titans? I think the Titans are
the Titans favored in this game by three? Does that
sound about right? Let me see what do I do
you have that Pauling?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Yeah, I have as of this morning a couple different
sites Tennessee giving two to now you don't keep Milik
Willison there, payback, nice little light storyline, old team. Not
for that reason alone. I'm not saying to Packers fans,
you know.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
You know, if you had better quarterback play, the Titans
are two to zero. You haven't had good quarterback play
at all. Like it's weird to say they're a deceptive too,
but they are. They played well, they've been in these games,
but the quarterbacking play has not been good at all.
(02:09):
Let's see anything else We're going to play the woge game.
Adrian woj Androwski surprised everybody leaving the mothership. No longer
an NBA insider, and he passed on a lot of
money and he is going to go back to his
alma mater monadventure to become sort of a GM, a
sports GM. And this is a new, semi new position.
(02:33):
We're finding in some southern schools college football that they
have GMS that they're bringing in and not an athletic director.
He's going to be a GM. So Woj is going
back to his alma mater, Saint Bonaventure. And you talk
about changing a job, changing a job with the pressure
that was attached to it, and it's a pretty big
(02:56):
pay cut for Woj. What are the numbers there, Paulie, Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
We'll start before we play the Voge game. Do you
want to play the What was Woge making at ESPN game?
I'm shocked by this.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I'm going to say he was making eight million dollars.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
According to the Athletic he was making seven million dollars
a year and had three years left on his contract,
which he does not getesh. He is now taking a
job estimated salary of one hundred and thirty thousand to
one hundred and eighty thousand dollars per year. Okay, that's
a big pay cup.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
It is, Yes, it is. In case you were yes, Yeah,
seven million to one hundred and seventy thousand. That's a
big pay cut.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I love the University of Dayton, but I ain't. I
ain't going back for anything. For anything. They can find
somebody else, Get Jim Paxson to come in there, help
him out. All right, let's play the wog game. Okay. Now,
the parameters this the Woje game is you're gonna leave
(04:03):
this job and then you're going to go to something
that we would go, oh my gosh. Like yesterday when
we got the news, it was like, wait, are we
being punked? Woje is leaving. Now I understand why he left,
Like he talked about he was burnt out, And I
think this is awesome to get an opportunity like that,
and to be able to live in a college town.
(04:25):
It's a smaller school, and you're able to be maybe
part of something really nice with your alma mater. I
thought it was great. I understand exactly what he must
have been feeling, and that is I'm tired. I don't
want to I mean the pressure there when you don't
when he gets scooped by shams, and then people look
(04:45):
at Woje and go, oh, Woje missed out on that.
Every one of these Now, I don't know if the
insider is as important as it used to be, because
it feels like everybody sort of story breaks and then
somebody else will take credit for it as well, or
there's two reporters reporting the same thing. It just doesn't
(05:06):
have the same kind of ring the way it once did.
I mean, Schefty will tell you, hey, this tackle got extended,
and Trent Williams is making whatever.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
I don't care.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I mean, I don't care that he's playing. But you're
getting these numbers they're giving you. You have to maintain relationships,
you know, you got to send them Christmas gifts and
new coaches, new gms, you got to re establishers, you know,
all of this stuff. It's constant. There is no off
season for an insider. I mean, Schefty told us, I
think he was at a wedding when he got the
(05:38):
information on Andrew Luck retiring. You're at a wedding, but
it never stops, and I think after a while you go,
I don't want to do this anymore.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I love Glazier's approach to this. Jay Glazier is like,
let those guys do all the heavy lifting. I'm going
to get one or two each weekend that they don't
have because he's getting it from coaches and or players,
and he's good. He doesn't need the day to day.
He doesn't want the day to day. He doesn't care that,
you know, Sauce Gardener is going to get a new contract.
(06:09):
He doesn't care. He wants to get something that is
a little bit more magnanimous, not the routine of what
you know, chef, You'll be like, you know, kind of
this is what's happening, and if on Networking and rapaportal
have it moments later. People cannibalize each other with this.
Jay hits home runs, he's not going to have a
(06:32):
batting average, doesn't care about his batting average. He may
go one for four, but the one is going to
be bigger than anybody else, probably over the weekend. That's
all he cares about. So and he's got a great life.
He just got married, he's healthy, happy, He's gone through
a lot, and he's never sounded better. He doesn't want
this stress and it is stress and you and you
(06:57):
make it even more stressful because if you don't scoop,
you don't get that WOJ bomb, somebody beats you to
the punch, or you get it wrong. I mean I
get it, I get it. I applaud Woge. I'm happy
for because now you can take that breath. You'd be
like good, yeah, I mean you still got pressures. You
(07:19):
want to be great at your job, but the outside
pressures don't compare. I think it's wonderful. So who wants
to go first in the WOJ Well, Fritzie's got his
hand up.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Yeah, I'm excited about that game.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
It's the woge game. If you get fired, No, if
you leave this job, what would you do that might
surprise those time?
Speaker 4 (07:40):
I have a few. I'll do it quick so everybody
gets a chance.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
No, we do one. It's a one. No, you're taking
one job, not two or three.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Okay, I'm going to say something in Broncos community relations
and or producing Broncos radio games, hopefully with an office
overlooking Mile High and the big horse atop the standing,
would be pretty exciting.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
All right, seating the WOGE game. You're leaving here and
you're gonna go do what.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
Work in soccer. Probably for a soccer team in Europe
in the US would be great. Italy would be fantastic.
That would be perfect. But any soccer team, anything really
to do with soccer is what I want to do next.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
All right, Marvin a college basketball recruiter, Okay, but scholarships
like your.
Speaker 8 (08:21):
Alma maters absolutely come on now, so you stores.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Yeah, so Danny Hurley reaches, if he reaches out right now,
would you leave this job to do that right now? No? Okay?
Are you telling the truth?
Speaker 8 (08:38):
Yes? I swear on my son.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Okay, Paulie the wog.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Gain, I'm gonna sample WOJE a little bit here. I
grew up Chicago sports fan. It wouldn't be the Cubs
or the Bears. I've seen them win, right, I've seen
them win once in my lifetime. I guess this is
kind of fine. My first favorite team was to Paul
University basketball when I was a little guy and they
had Mark Aguire. I've been very frustrated in the past
decades on to Paul Basketball new coach Chris Holtman. I
(09:05):
would love to be part of helping to Paul Basketball
return to power. To me, that would be special, like
what we'll just saying, that'd be the one.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Okay, I would leave and I would want to be
a part of a home improvement type show, like where
you go in and you make something nicer, better, bigger,
whatever it is. But interior decorating is what I would
like to do.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yes, you know what the show I think specifically for
this that you'd be good at. You walk into a
decent house and you tell them here's what you're doing wrong,
because you're very good at, like with this place, taking
things and moving them in the right spot. So I
think you can do a show that's more like not
necessarily a complete rehab of a house, but where show
(09:54):
me all your stuff, let me stage it for you
almost you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Some feng shwe Yeah, like a Stager, Yeah, the Stager. Yeah,
Dan Patrick, Yes, tonight on the Stager.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
It sounds like a Jason Statham movie.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Yeah, well he was a guy when there he did
a movie about the bee Keeper. Yeah, Jason Statham the Beekeeper.
But was he a beekeeper or more than that? Yes,
morn so is that your new show in twenty twenty eight?
Maybe maybe I was going to be I was thinking
about being a like a Torso model. But again, yeah,
(10:30):
but I like been there, done that and dealing with
those photographers. Out of all of you, the one that's
most realistic, I think. I think all of Marvin's probably
might be more of a longer shot there. Seaton working
in soccer is not a surprise. Paulie helping DePaul de Paulie,
oh blue blue okay, transit uh Fritzi with the Broncos,
(10:55):
although he refers to them as they not we. I
don't know if that hurts you a little bit very well,
but yeah, I could see I could see everybody there
doing that. When it's all said and done, how about
some phone calls here? Uh, Brian and Grand Rapids? Hi Brian,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (11:14):
Dan and boys? Happy Thursday again? Yeah the second time,
long time. I'm gonna give it a five ten and
after a banger of a slider Sunday one sixty five,
Me and some buddies. There are two little boys. We're
heading out to Arizona Wash the Cardinals and the Lions
play this weekend. Any recommendations from your guys, Places eat,
(11:37):
places to see, places visit?
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Uh do you guys, got any recommendations on Old Scottsdale.
How can we help out, Brian?
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah, phone, there's a bar that's been there forever called
he's bringing his kids. Well, dit your kids, you go
to the Rusty Spur in Old Town Scottsdale. Okay, old
time Western bar. Yeah, still legit.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I've been there.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
We've definitely been there.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Yeah, thank you for remembering that I was there. I remember. Yeah, Sorry,
we don't. I'm not very good at that. I think
that the Western Town that we had for the Arizona
super Bowl, the prior one, I think that Western Town
is still there. Oh, the build up, I think so
(12:25):
when Direct TV came in Chris Long and he spent
all that money on a Western Town and we did
our show there not very far from the stadium, that
some of those some of those shows, those builds that
we had at Super Bowl were incredible. Absolutely. Maybe we
(12:45):
built a high rise in New York City Super Bowl.
We built part of the French Quarter in New Orleans.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
See the high rise.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
In New York City is the only one that I
was like like trying to get up to the second floor.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
That was a terrible as it was. That was a
terrible So we built it on top of a parking garage.
It was just incredible. Matt and Florida. Matt, thanks for
holding What do you have for me? A?
Speaker 10 (13:14):
You know, y'all were sitting at there talking about these
going to the Hall of Fame, and it irks me
because I'm old school football. I love being moved back,
big brus and backs like Earl Campbell and them. I
love big hitting safeties and linebackers like Jack Tatum.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
But as a.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
Buss fan, you know what urns me.
Speaker 11 (13:32):
I never hear Mike.
Speaker 10 (13:33):
AlScott getting talked about being in the Hall of Fame.
That man had like what five what first team All
pros four and he's like six seven, eight time Pro bowler.
So John Guten didn't want to use him. He needs
to be talking about being in Hall of Fame. So
that's the kind of running I like, and then hitting
I like.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Well, man, I think it wasn't All Star up for
it not too long ago, Paulie.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
There's a bit of an issue with a guy like
Mike Alstott. Briefly he was listed as a full ball back,
and fullback's got to be All Pro or Pro Bowl
without necessarily being the most impactful player on the field.
He was a very good player. He never rushed for
a thousand yards in a season. He was a very
good receiver. But he is high end at a position
(14:15):
that's not valued.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah is that fair?
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
And I remember him at Purdue. Was it either tailback
at Purdue or was and then with Warwick Dunn he
became the fullback with Tampa Bay as a good team.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
I saw Mike Mike Allstart play a high school game.
Can you imagine what that was like for the opposition.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I can't imagine Derrick Henry playing a high school game.
Like there's certain guys. I remember seeing Julio Jones play
a high school game and I'm going, my god, that
guy could be the greatest receiver I've ever seen. And
then you see these little dbs that are like five
seven one five and trying to cover had some guys
(14:58):
six ' five Davian Clowney. I mean, come on, it
looked like.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
It looks like one of those movies like Fast Times
at Ridgemont High when the football players destroying every.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
Mortis Whitaker, Yeah, yes, Mark, I worked the high school
game in South Carolina for the Mothership and I saw
aj Green and I was like, this is it right? Guys, guys,
these guys have algebra class.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
This isn't right.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
No, no, no, yes, Todd.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
I remember seeing high school footage of the bus in Detroit,
and I don't know who would get in front of that.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
There are just certain guys where you go that that
just wouldn't be fair. But I'll flip around sometimes where
you'll see these games in different cities on direct TV
and you'll be like, oh, you know what, here's a game.
It's at Ohio Football and you'll watch and you'll go,
oh my god, like that guy is going to play
(15:46):
on Sundays. All right, we'll take a break. Ol Michael's
gonna join us. Coming up next back after this.

Hey, we're Covino and Rich Fox Sports Radio every day five.

Speaker 12 (16:09):
But here's the thing, we never have enough time to
get to everything we want to get to.
Speaker 13 (16:13):
And that's why we have a brand new podcast called
over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun in
our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for. Yeah, you blubber list name in me.
Speaker 12 (16:27):
Well you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.
Speaker 13 (16:31):
Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna
be talking sports, of course, but we're also gonna talk
life and relationships. And if Rich and I are arguing
about something or we didn't have enough time, it will

sure you check out over Promised and also uncensored by

little harder. It's gonna be the best after show podcast

on YouTube. But definitely join us. Listen Over Promised with
Cadino and Rich on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts or

Speaker 2 (17:08):
More phone calls coming up. Will Ferrell's going to join
us on the program tomorrow. I believe Is that right, Todd?
Speaker 4 (17:13):
That is correct, and Dodgers managed to Dave Roberts.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Okay, well, thank you. Let's bring in the Hall of
Famer Al Michaels. He'll be on the call with Kirk
kurb Street tonight. It'll be Amazon Prime kick off at
eight fifteen Eastern only on Prime Video. Al, I'm curious
how much advice you give to a analyst. Let's say
Tom Brady was going to be your analyst to start
out Game one, how much information advice would you have
(17:39):
given him leading into Game one?
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Well, I actually have talked to Tom on a couple
of occasions, and you know, five dead seconds on television
macheing like a minute. So you don't have to be
a racehorse who can't wait to get out of the gate.
The replay will wait, let the game to you. And
I know a lot of people say be yourself. That's
(18:04):
just too much of a cliche, much too general. But
look a guy like Tom, he's going to know the
game inside out. But it's a matter of rhythm. It's
getting you know, in sync with Kevin Burkhart. I think
he's done extremely well the first two games. Listening to
the truck, it's easy for people to think, Oh, you
go into the booth and just spew all of your
(18:26):
knowledge about football. But you know as well as I do.
You've got people in your ear, you've got the crowd screaming.
You know, a lot of things are happening at once.
I mean it's almost like you know, the truck is
air traffic control and you're trying to land the plane
and land it safely. So I think Tom has done Look,
I know he got a lot of heat. I guess
(18:47):
after the first game. I thought it was pretty good
coming out of the gate. I thought he did a
really good job. But take your time. You don't have
to race to be there, and pretty much, I guess
in general terms, I would say, let the game come
to you. See you'll go in prepared like crazy, and
you'll want to get a lot of stuff in. But
if it's not happening, it's just wasteful. Let the game
(19:10):
come to you. You'll figure out where it is and
you'll be better for that.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Yeah, I had said after week one, he's got to
learn TV. He knows football, but learning TV is really
tricky because, as you said, I could hear his producer
in his ear at one point and you freeze up
a little bit there, just getting into that rhythm. You know,
it's kind of like surfing. You know there's only one
(19:34):
Kelly Slater, but you can emulate that. You're it's choppy,
you could go under, You're going to get back up,
get back on the board again. And you've got to
make it look easy, sound simple, sound comfortable.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
I have always likened it to the game is the melody.
You're providing the lyrics, so you want it to match's great.
You don't want it to be confidence. You want to
talk about what people are scene, so you don't want
to go astray from They see pictures and then you
(20:06):
have to describe what you see and maybe get into
things that you see and they see, but you know
a lot more about So the key I think is
the rhythm and the balance and not trying to do
too much. And again, you know, like I say, when
guys come into the booth, I said, listen, five seconds
is nothing. It's going to seem like a minute. It
(20:29):
is only five seconds. Relax. You don't have to talk
over everything that's on the screen. You just don't and
you just you know, make it and feel where the
game is too. When the game is great, you're ratcheting
up a little bit. When the game is not so great. Okay,
you don't make too much of a bad game, because
otherwise now you're just sounding like a shill. And I think,
(20:51):
you know, look, Tom will get better and better. I
think at the end of the day, he's going to
be one of the best ever.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Talking to Al Michaels, he'll be on the call with
Kirk kurb Street tonight it's the Jets and the Patriots.
Did you guys get a chance to talk to Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
We did. Had a pretty fascinating conversation with him because
I was thinking about the fact that he is really excited.
You know, he's coming back from obviously the torn achilles.
He's back. Looked really good last week leading that game
winning drib against Tennessee. And what he was saying the
other day, he loves the process. He loves Monday through Saturday,
(21:28):
or this week, Monday through Wednesday, use the game is tonight.
He loves building the foundation, the building blocks. He says
that to him is what really is the most exciting
part of the game. And then you see how it's
manifest on Sunday and it's so much in contrast to
all of the years I had Brett Farr and I
covered a ton of games with Brett, and Brett was
(21:49):
the exact opposite. Brett at one point said I'll play
until I'm sixty if I only had to play the games.
He didn't like practice. Berett couldn't wait to get out
of practice. Brett would leave practice and go play nine
holes of golf if he could every day. Very much
in contrast. Now, look they're both great, they're both fantastic quarterbacks,
but it's interesting how the process is so different in
(22:11):
how they got to the game.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, I'm just curious with Rogers that do you think
he'd rather talk football or non football when you when
you're having a conversation both, you know, it's.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Kind of funny. He'll go not far astray, but I
mean he is Aaron is extremely intelligent. He is very
well read. He's had tons of experience, I mean going
around the world and just absorbing everything. Aaron wants to
absorb everything that's around him. It's not just football. And
(22:45):
he's very perceptive. He sees how people react to him.
I mean sometimes you'll sit in the room with him
and he'll he'll see you, and if you begin to
like your thoughts waiver, he'll go, hey, get up, wake
up here, come on, come on, come on. He's very
perceptive in that regard. He's extremely well read, extremely smart.
(23:07):
But I think you know, Aaron is the kind of
guy he'd like to talk about under you name it football, great,
you want to talk about philosophy, whatever, anything else, the
current events, whatever, He can go anywhere.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Did you ever have a bad production meeting with somebody?
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Sure, Well, when you say bad, there are guys who
come in and they don't want to talk and they
don't want to say anything. And it's not that they're
angry with you or anything, because if they come in
and they agree to do the production meeting, you know
they have said, okay, I'll sit in there. But a
lot of times, you know, what's wasteful for us anyway
(23:42):
is you get nothing. And a lot of the young
guys that are like that way. What I have found
through the years, though, is these players now, the younger
guys have grown up in the television world. They've been
getting interviews since they were in high school. They know
how to do it, they understand it, and the pr
people are now talking to them, telling them, hey, here's
what you have to give, you know, and a lot
(24:03):
of them right now you know what it is. Then
they're building their brand, so they love being a part
of this.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
If you the Hall of Fame we've been talking about
the first two hours here the new nominees for the
Hall of Fame or they're on the ballot. Now, are
you a stat guide for a Hall of Fame or
just the name recognition and you know it's a Hall
of Famer.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
The latter because you can look at numbers and make
numbers dance anyway you want. But I look at a guy,
and for those of us who have been around the
game a long long time, and especially for the voters,
you can see that person. You can watch him play,
you can think about how he played, you can think
about how he played him in big games. I think
that is more important because the statistics can, you know,
(24:51):
make it seem as if, oh, this guy was the
greatest of all time or not as great as we
thought he was. I don't buy into that. I think
I just try to look at the whole body of
his career and see if I think that guy has
swallow fame worded, Hey, by the way, the one bad
production meeting we did have Buddy Ryan probably nineteen eighty
(25:11):
seven or eighties with Philadelphia, and he didn't like for
some reason, he didn't he hated these meetings, and he
called me a soccer announcer. I remember into a soccer
game in my life. Cantankeri is Buddy Ryan.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
I had a bad run in with him too, al yeah, yeah.
He scolded me for asking about protecting Randall Cunningham this
season after Cunningham got sacked like sixty four times, and
I said, what did you do in the off season
to ensure that Randall won't get sacked as many times?
And he just blurted out, Oh, We're just gonna let
(25:47):
everybody sack him, and then he walked away. Pr Guy
Crafting brought him back. I asked the same question, he
answered it the same way. I was like, oh, yeah, buddy,
and I didn't ever see eye to eye, but at
least he didn't Kevin Gilbride.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
Me, Kevin, what did he What did he do to you?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
No, Buddy punched Kevin?
Speaker 5 (26:10):
Oh correct, here you go, right, I forgot about that.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Punched him on this on the sideline the Otani situation, Like,
what would fifty to fifty mean to you? I know
we're kind of numbed to numbers now, it feels like
in all sports. Yeah, but fifty to fifty means what
fifty to fifty?
Speaker 5 (26:31):
I mean you talk about Otani home runs, stolen bases,
clutches and all that. I cannot you know, living in
LA I can't wait for him to pitch next year.
That's what I can't wait for.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
I mean, you.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
Forget about this guy. I watched the pitch of a
one hit shutout against Detroit last year, and then I
think too there was a first game of a doubleheader
and he hit two home runs in the other game.
I mean, he is the one off of one off.
They talked about, you know, since Babe Ruth, and they're right.
I mean, Babe Ruth could pitch, he could hit. We
know what his career was like. So I really can't
(27:06):
wait for Otani next year to you know, to get
into that rotation. He is as special as they've ever come.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Is Kirk Does he bring his dog to every game?
Speaker 5 (27:15):
The dog is here. We had our meeting. The dog
is here. The dog, the dog. The dog was in
repose today, let's put it that way. And the dog.
The dog even passed up on the bacon, which wasn't
very good at the at the buffet this morning. But
Ben is Ben is here on a regular basis.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
He is.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Have you had somebody bring a pet into the booth
before to broadcast a game with?
Speaker 5 (27:40):
No? No, I've worked with a few pets, but I've
never had anybody. But you know, I'm not an animal person.
I've never had an animal in my life. I've never
had a goldfish man. But I kind of fell in love.
I mean, Ben is like a gorgeous Golden Retriever and
he's you know, and Kirk has him off the leash
(28:04):
and he's just he's right there with him, and he's
so smart. We're in a hotel last year and we
get out of the elevator and it's Kirk and me
and Ben, and there was a maze to get to
Kirk's room, you know, walk like a Grand Prix course
in the in the hallway, and then the dog found
the room. It was it was unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Are you considering getting a dog?
Speaker 5 (28:25):
I am not considering getting a dog, but I you know,
but no, but one day I would like to announce
the Westminster Kennell Dog Show. I think that would be
a lot of fun. That's one thing I haven't done.
But I got to say. I'm not saying it's on
my bucket list, but you know what, would I say?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
There's a pooch, there's a pooch, pooch, a pooch, punt,
a pooch, a.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
Pooch, a pooch and a mutt. I mean, what do
I know? I don't know if dog breaths? Okay?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Would you do it tongue in cheek like best in
show that mockumentary that they did it has Fred Willard,
I'd have to me, you know you name it, Paulie,
you know the person there who runs this time?
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Absolutely do mister Michaels, if you would like me to.
They're going to stoop you up a second.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
I'll do it with Little Farrell, who's coming on your
show tomorrow. Right, Yes, I want to know what he
thinks of my La Kings this year we really haven't.
You know, he's a huge hockey man. I see him
the parking lot of after another loss. But I'm curious to
know what he thinks about my Kings.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Well, I asked if Will wants to take part in
the Westminster Dog Show. Absolutely yeah, and we'll make TV magic.
That's what we do.
Speaker 5 (29:35):
And then I'll bring up a name that nobody will
ever remember, Rudd Weatherwax, who was the trainer for a Lassie. Okay,
there you go. I know I'm dating myself, but what
the hell? One of the great names in history. I
think he just passed to weather Wack. I think I
think he I think wow, I think wow. Yeah, have
(29:55):
fun tonight.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Now.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
The stuff you learned on this show, it's fantastic.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
I got to start listening to it.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
I haven't seen you in a while on the show.
Let's do it regularly.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Come on, thank you, thank you. That's Al Michaels once
again trying to help Al with his golf. With his
swing Johnny Miller, Al belongs to a great golf course,
La Belair. Yes, yes, well a couple of things.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
First of all, we're reaching out to the Westminster Kennel Club,
as we should. And Rudd Weatherwax was an American actor,
animal trainer and breeder. He passed away in eighty five.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Oh, I thought he just passed away. It seems like
it's just yesterday.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
That sounds like a fake name.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
I thought it was a name that Will Ferrell has
used before.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
He used Cord Cord, Hoselton Cord.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
That's when he did the Macy's Day parade.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Yeah, what was his name, hosen Beck, something like that.
Speaker 7 (30:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Will Ferrell's on the show tomorrow. All right, let me
take a break, Last call for phone calls?
Speaker 5 (31:02):

These No, no, they did. It's okay. I gave you
a homework assignment, these jets. I wish you would just
apply yourself seating.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
For this is the story of my life, story of
my life.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
My mom would say that to me every.
Speaker 7 (32:38):
Teacher I ever had, if he only applied himself, he's
a dreamer, only applied himself.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Marvin Tomorrow's headline today.
Speaker 8 (32:48):
The jets were paddied down, like what's somebody patch you down?
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Like TSA or p A T T E ed. Okay,
the Patriots pat No I got it wasn't that funny.
I think it's funny, then I never mind.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Paul, go ahead and pat the Patriot. Good job by
New England.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Pat the Patriot call a good job headline. Yeah, hey,
good job, good job.
Speaker 3 (33:19):
No one ever dos is that no nice word?
Speaker 4 (33:22):
Swinging a musket for the jets.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
If the first one's not good, you don't get another
try time.
Speaker 4 (33:30):
I should have ask permission for that one.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Yeah, and maybe work on some rime time for tomorrow
to make up for today.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
Let's do that.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Uh Jake and Phoenix. Hey, Jake, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (33:42):
Hey? But tough act to follow with those headlines? Come?
Speaker 2 (33:47):
Hey, good job?
Speaker 4 (33:49):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Thanks?
Speaker 14 (33:49):
Hey, wanting to let you know, so last night I
took my fourteen year old daughter to the Green Day concert. Okay,
but I wanted to show my allegiance, so I wore
my stay in Your Lane shirt and since they were
playing the Dukie album, my Crappensburg State hat. And let
me tell you, it's not easy trying to explain that
joke to a fourteen year old. He did not get it.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
But all right, well, thank you, thank you Jake for
flying the Colors. We got to get Billy Joe Armstrong
on one of these days, you know I can. I
can tell him, you know, like I went to the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
He probably shouldn't come on because then I have to
explain that I'm not a fan.
Speaker 5 (34:29):
Agree.
Speaker 7 (34:29):
Do you think he'd appreciate that if you if you
were like, hey, why are you in the rock and
Roll Hall of Fame? I don't know that he would
probably not. Goda admit he's very defensive over his band,
Is he very Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Oh well they're in the Hall of Fame? Well is
he defensive because people criticize them getting in the hall
of Fame? No?
Speaker 7 (34:47):
No, well, you know what, Actually, to be fair, maybe
he used to be defensive. Maybe now he's not anymore,
but there was a point in time where he's very
defensive of his band, rightfully, So I.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Think, yeah, I guess I just not. I didn't get
into it. Why are you in the rock and roll Yeah?
Well he might say why are you in the Broadcasting
Hall of And sometimes it gives you the creeps.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
Maybe it's mind flowing trick thone.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Okay, yes, yes, Paul.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
I do remember some articles in the nineties calling Green
Day pop punk, and they probably didn't enjoy that.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
M probably, I don't know if it got to them.
I mean, I don't know if the message got to
Green Day. Oh I don't know. That looks like Mike
Florio is trying to steal something from us.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
Oh what a plot.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Speaking of pop punks, fifty yard field goals are becoming
virtually automatic. To make kicks more uncertain, would the NFL
ever raise the crossbar or narrow the uprights? Hello, Mike,
what day did we do that? Monday or Tuesday? And
I said we should go, you know, like twenty yards
(35:53):
it's here, and then thirty yards. It comes in, forty yards,
it comes in, fifty yards it comes in, So we
make it a little more challenging. Now, Florio picking up
the baton. Mike, just give credit. Okay, we're just kidding, Mike.
I think I'm guilty of not giving Mike credit for
all the things that we steal from him. Andrew in Vegas, Hi, Andrew,
(36:16):
what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (36:18):
What's up?
Speaker 10 (36:18):
DP?
Speaker 5 (36:19):
How you doing? Good?
Speaker 14 (36:19):
Shirt?
Speaker 10 (36:21):
Two quick things, Paulie, it was not relaxing going on
sixteen as a Lions fan and DP decent show.
Speaker 14 (36:30):
Keep your head up, You'll find your groove, can you?
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Thank you?
Speaker 10 (36:33):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (36:34):
And still working on it. One of these days I'm
going to have the perfect show one of these days.
Haven't had it yet, but I hope too in the
next three and a half years. Where I think we
were pretty close last week to having maybe a perfect show.
I don't know what day it was. My memory is
(36:54):
not perfect, so I can't remember when we almost had
a perfect show.
Speaker 8 (36:58):
Yes, in Vegas during the Super Bowl, when we had
Cam Newton and Brent Mussburger, Yeah, and Jim NANTZ. That
show was as it's the best show I've ever been on. Really,
that show from top to bottom, everything was hitting that day.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Okay. I usually asked Paulie how good the show was,
Like I'm not a good judge of it. I'll be like,
you know, what'd you think? And Paulie of go, no,
it's good. Now if he says no, it's good, then
I know, okay, Like that's serviceable.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Well, our bar for ourselves is pretty high. So a
good show is what we is a standards we should
have that. Sometimes there are shows that you remember two
years later, and Marvin's got a good point that Cam
Newton's appearance was great, Jim nance and you talked about
Brent Musburger. There's a lot going on that day.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
I hope there's some more movement with people getting behind
the Brent Musburger should be in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame as a contributor I know this is going
to sound cold, and if it does, I apologize. I
don't want people doing this after Brent's gone. Okay, that's
(38:05):
I guess. As direct as I can be with this,
I want him to be able to enjoy this. I'm
sure he's healthy. I hope he lives a long life.
He invented the pregame show, He's been involved in the
sport sports forever. Contributions for the Pro Football Hall of Fame,
this one's easy. The fact that they missed John Facenda,
(38:26):
who should have already been in. And I don't have
my connection at the Pro Football Hall of Fame that
I used to, or I would try to get out
in front of this. I sent a letter on behalf
of John Facenda, the voice of NFL Films. But I
just hope Brent should be in the Hall of Fame. Now,
maybe there's a reason why he's not. Maybe EI there's
(38:47):
something I'm missing, But contributions to the game, he's right
up there. Tim in Ohio, Tim, thanks for holding.
Speaker 9 (38:56):
A five.
Speaker 11 (39:01):
I outstand of the day, because you guys were talking
about football Hall of Fame. Yep, what coach has two
hundred wins has not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Two hundred wins, not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
PAULI raised his hand.
Speaker 3 (39:18):
The name that popped in my head Don Coriel of
the Charters.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
But I don't know, Okay, hold on, hold on, Timm.
Did he coach the Raiders?
Speaker 5 (39:32):
Tim?
Speaker 9 (39:33):
No?
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Okay, who is it?
Speaker 11 (39:37):
Former Cleveland Brown's head coach Marty Schottenheiber.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Okay, a good man. He was got to know him.
When he was at the mother Ship. You would talk
about somebody who came in and worked. He really did.
He had energy, he had ideas. He was always doing homework,
researching like he wanted to be a great analyst. And
there are a lot of times there'd be just people
(40:02):
stopping through. It is away station, just a pit stop
because they knew they were going to go on to
something else. I saw where John Gruden trying to maybe
get back into coaching, maybe college. I said to Fritzie,
reach out to John, see if the fellow Dayton flyer
would like to come on and tell us.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
We may hear from him in the coming days.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Okayt'd be curious about that. Now he might not be
able to with what the lawsuit going on with the NFL.
I don't know where that stands, but John, going back
to coach college, it'd be pretty cool. Let's go around
the room. Oh you know what this dan? In sports history?
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Paul, just one back when the White Sox were more
fun to attend games. Two thousand and two, Tom Gamboa,
the coach of the first base coach at the Casey Royals,
was attacked by a man and a son White Sox
fans air quotes while he was standing near first base.
The two fans were charged and arrested for battery.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
I had a dream about this, not last night, the
night before that. Greg blue Gainis hit his head on
the diving board nineteen eighty eight, So it was on
this day that he hit his head on the diving
board and then he ended up winning the gold, Say
qualified and then won the gold. I don't know why
I thought about that last night or ninety four? Todd,
(41:11):
would you learn today.
Speaker 6 (41:12):
You appreciate the captive audience that is those watching our
show while incarcerated.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
At Riker's Island. Seaton O'Connor, The mittens idea in the
NFL is kind of going over, yeah, kind of just
make holding legal. Marvin would you learn you're not going
back to Dayton now. I'm not going to quit this
job and do a WOJ.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
Paulie can't wait for the next Westminster Dog Show.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
Rapid Radios its and pushed the talk walkie talkies. They're great.
You can save up to sixty percent off with Rapid Radios,
free shipping, free protection bag. Add the Code radio and
get an extra five percent off. Will Ferrell and the
Dodger manager Dave Roberts tomorrow
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final Hour on this Thursday. The great Al
Michaels will stop by. He's on the call for the
Jets Patriots tonight. The Jets are giving six to the
suddenly new and improved Patriots eight seven to seven to
three DP show, try to get to more phone calls.
Brewers clinch the Nation League Central. It was great to
(00:22):
see them bring Bob Yuker, the legendary Bob Yuker, into
the celebration in the locker room. He's ninety years of
age now.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I'm fortunate to be able to text with him occasionally
if I hear one of his calls or I'm just
thinking about him, and he responds right away, and he's
still so sharp and funny. So I wasn't good at
text him last night. I'll wait and send him a
note today. But it was great to see him celebrate
with the Brewers. The Yankees clinch to play on spot
(00:52):
as well. Dave Roberts, Dodger manager, will join us on
the program tomorrow show. Hey Otani, it's not a question
in my mind that he gets to fifty stolen bases
with ten games to go. Will he get to fifty
home runs, it doesn't diminish, It just means we don't
get round numbers there that we can celebrate Peacock. Thank
you if you watching our streaming partner, Fox Sports Radio,
(01:15):
iHeartRadio over four hundred cities in America that carried this program.
Jordan Love is back at practice. Will he be able
to play against the Titans? I think the Titans are
the Titans favored in this game by three? Does that
sound about right? Let me see what do I do
you have that Pauling?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Yeah, I have as of this morning a couple different
sites Tennessee giving two to now you don't keep Milik
Willison there, payback, nice little light storyline, old team. Not
for that reason alone. I'm not saying to Packers fans,
you know.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
You know, if you had better quarterback play, the Titans
are two to zero. You haven't had good quarterback play
at all. Like it's weird to say they're a deceptive too,
but they are. They played well, they've been in these games,
but the quarterbacking play has not been good at all.
(02:09):
Let's see anything else We're going to play the woge game.
Adrian woj Androwski surprised everybody leaving the mothership. No longer
an NBA insider, and he passed on a lot of
money and he is going to go back to his
alma mater monadventure to become sort of a GM, a
sports GM. And this is a new, semi new position.
(02:33):
We're finding in some southern schools college football that they
have GMS that they're bringing in and not an athletic director.
He's going to be a GM. So Woj is going
back to his alma mater, Saint Bonaventure. And you talk
about changing a job, changing a job with the pressure
that was attached to it, and it's a pretty big
(02:56):
pay cut for Woj. What are the numbers there, Paulie, Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
We'll start before we play the Voge game. Do you
want to play the What was Woge making at ESPN game?
I'm shocked by this.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I'm going to say he was making eight million dollars.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
According to the Athletic he was making seven million dollars
a year and had three years left on his contract,
which he does not getesh. He is now taking a
job estimated salary of one hundred and thirty thousand to
one hundred and eighty thousand dollars per year. Okay, that's
a big pay cup.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
It is, Yes, it is. In case you were yes, Yeah,
seven million to one hundred and seventy thousand. That's a
big pay cut.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I love the University of Dayton, but I ain't. I
ain't going back for anything. For anything. They can find
somebody else, Get Jim Paxson to come in there, help
him out. All right, let's play the wog game. Okay. Now,
the parameters this the Woje game is you're gonna leave
(04:03):
this job and then you're going to go to something
that we would go, oh my gosh. Like yesterday when
we got the news, it was like, wait, are we
being punked? Woje is leaving. Now I understand why he left,
Like he talked about he was burnt out, And I
think this is awesome to get an opportunity like that,
and to be able to live in a college town.
(04:25):
It's a smaller school, and you're able to be maybe
part of something really nice with your alma mater. I
thought it was great. I understand exactly what he must
have been feeling, and that is I'm tired. I don't
want to I mean the pressure there when you don't
when he gets scooped by shams, and then people look
(04:45):
at Woje and go, oh, Woje missed out on that.
Every one of these Now, I don't know if the
insider is as important as it used to be, because
it feels like everybody sort of story breaks and then
somebody else will take credit for it as well, or
there's two reporters reporting the same thing. It just doesn't
(05:06):
have the same kind of ring the way it once did.
I mean, Schefty will tell you, hey, this tackle got extended,
and Trent Williams is making whatever.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
I don't care.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
I mean, I don't care that he's playing. But you're
getting these numbers they're giving you. You have to maintain relationships,
you know, you got to send them Christmas gifts and
new coaches, new gms, you got to re establishers, you know,
all of this stuff. It's constant. There is no off
season for an insider. I mean, Schefty told us, I
think he was at a wedding when he got the
(05:38):
information on Andrew Luck retiring. You're at a wedding, but
it never stops, and I think after a while you go,
I don't want to do this anymore.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I love Glazier's approach to this. Jay Glazier is like,
let those guys do all the heavy lifting. I'm going
to get one or two each weekend that they don't
have because he's getting it from coaches and or players,
and he's good. He doesn't need the day to day.
He doesn't want the day to day. He doesn't care that,
you know, Sauce Gardener is going to get a new contract.
(06:09):
He doesn't care. He wants to get something that is
a little bit more magnanimous, not the routine of what
you know, chef, You'll be like, you know, kind of
this is what's happening, and if on Networking and rapaportal
have it moments later. People cannibalize each other with this.
Jay hits home runs, he's not going to have a
(06:32):
batting average, doesn't care about his batting average. He may
go one for four, but the one is going to
be bigger than anybody else, probably over the weekend. That's
all he cares about. So and he's got a great life.
He just got married, he's healthy, happy, He's gone through
a lot, and he's never sounded better. He doesn't want
this stress and it is stress and you and you
(06:57):
make it even more stressful because if you don't scoop,
you don't get that WOJ bomb, somebody beats you to
the punch, or you get it wrong. I mean I
get it, I get it. I applaud Woge. I'm happy
for because now you can take that breath. You'd be
like good, yeah, I mean you still got pressures. You
(07:19):
want to be great at your job, but the outside
pressures don't compare. I think it's wonderful. So who wants
to go first in the WOJ Well, Fritzie's got his
hand up.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Yeah, I'm excited about that game.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
It's the woge game. If you get fired, No, if
you leave this job, what would you do that might
surprise those time?
Speaker 4 (07:40):
I have a few. I'll do it quick so everybody
gets a chance.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
No, we do one. It's a one. No, you're taking
one job, not two or three.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Okay, I'm going to say something in Broncos community relations
and or producing Broncos radio games, hopefully with an office
overlooking Mile High and the big horse atop the standing,
would be pretty exciting.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
All right, seating the WOGE game. You're leaving here and
you're gonna go do what.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
Work in soccer. Probably for a soccer team in Europe
in the US would be great. Italy would be fantastic.
That would be perfect. But any soccer team, anything really
to do with soccer is what I want to do next.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
All right, Marvin a college basketball recruiter, Okay, but scholarships
like your.
Speaker 8 (08:21):
Alma maters absolutely come on now, so you stores.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Yeah, so Danny Hurley reaches, if he reaches out right now,
would you leave this job to do that right now? No? Okay?
Are you telling the truth?
Speaker 8 (08:38):
Yes? I swear on my son.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Okay, Paulie the wog.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Gain, I'm gonna sample WOJE a little bit here. I
grew up Chicago sports fan. It wouldn't be the Cubs
or the Bears. I've seen them win, right, I've seen
them win once in my lifetime. I guess this is
kind of fine. My first favorite team was to Paul
University basketball when I was a little guy and they
had Mark Aguire. I've been very frustrated in the past
decades on to Paul Basketball new coach Chris Holtman. I
(09:05):
would love to be part of helping to Paul Basketball
return to power. To me, that would be special, like
what we'll just saying, that'd be the one.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Okay, I would leave and I would want to be
a part of a home improvement type show, like where
you go in and you make something nicer, better, bigger,
whatever it is. But interior decorating is what I would
like to do.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yes, you know what the show I think specifically for
this that you'd be good at. You walk into a
decent house and you tell them here's what you're doing wrong,
because you're very good at, like with this place, taking
things and moving them in the right spot. So I
think you can do a show that's more like not
necessarily a complete rehab of a house, but where show
(09:54):
me all your stuff, let me stage it for you
almost you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Some feng shwe Yeah, like a Stager, Yeah, the Stager. Yeah,
Dan Patrick, Yes, tonight on the Stager.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
It sounds like a Jason Statham movie.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Yeah, well he was a guy when there he did
a movie about the bee Keeper. Yeah, Jason Statham the Beekeeper.
But was he a beekeeper or more than that? Yes,
morn so is that your new show in twenty twenty eight?
Maybe maybe I was going to be I was thinking
about being a like a Torso model. But again, yeah,
(10:30):
but I like been there, done that and dealing with
those photographers. Out of all of you, the one that's
most realistic, I think. I think all of Marvin's probably
might be more of a longer shot there. Seaton working
in soccer is not a surprise. Paulie helping DePaul de Paulie,
oh blue blue okay, transit uh Fritzi with the Broncos,
(10:55):
although he refers to them as they not we. I
don't know if that hurts you a little bit very well,
but yeah, I could see I could see everybody there
doing that. When it's all said and done, how about
some phone calls here? Uh, Brian and Grand Rapids? Hi Brian,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (11:14):
Dan and boys? Happy Thursday again? Yeah the second time,
long time. I'm gonna give it a five ten and
after a banger of a slider Sunday one sixty five,
Me and some buddies. There are two little boys. We're
heading out to Arizona Wash the Cardinals and the Lions
play this weekend. Any recommendations from your guys, Places eat,
(11:37):
places to see, places visit?
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Uh do you guys, got any recommendations on Old Scottsdale.
How can we help out, Brian?
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yeah, phone, there's a bar that's been there forever called
he's bringing his kids. Well, dit your kids, you go
to the Rusty Spur in Old Town Scottsdale. Okay, old
time Western bar. Yeah, still legit.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I've been there.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
We've definitely been there.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Yeah, thank you for remembering that I was there. I remember. Yeah, Sorry,
we don't. I'm not very good at that. I think
that the Western Town that we had for the Arizona
super Bowl, the prior one, I think that Western Town
is still there. Oh, the build up, I think so
(12:25):
when Direct TV came in Chris Long and he spent
all that money on a Western Town and we did
our show there not very far from the stadium, that
some of those some of those shows, those builds that
we had at Super Bowl were incredible. Absolutely. Maybe we
(12:45):
built a high rise in New York City Super Bowl.
We built part of the French Quarter in New Orleans.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
See the high rise.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
In New York City is the only one that I
was like like trying to get up to the second floor.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
That was a terrible as it was. That was a
terrible So we built it on top of a parking garage.
It was just incredible. Matt and Florida. Matt, thanks for
holding What do you have for me? A?
Speaker 10 (13:14):
You know, y'all were sitting at there talking about these
going to the Hall of Fame, and it irks me
because I'm old school football. I love being moved back,
big brus and backs like Earl Campbell and them. I
love big hitting safeties and linebackers like Jack Tatum.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
But as a.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
Buss fan, you know what urns me.
Speaker 11 (13:32):
I never hear Mike.
Speaker 10 (13:33):
AlScott getting talked about being in the Hall of Fame.
That man had like what five what first team All
pros four and he's like six seven, eight time Pro bowler.
So John Guten didn't want to use him. He needs
to be talking about being in Hall of Fame. So
that's the kind of running I like, and then hitting
I like.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Well, man, I think it wasn't All Star up for
it not too long ago, Paulie.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
There's a bit of an issue with a guy like
Mike Alstott. Briefly he was listed as a full ball back,
and fullback's got to be All Pro or Pro Bowl
without necessarily being the most impactful player on the field.
He was a very good player. He never rushed for
a thousand yards in a season. He was a very
good receiver. But he is high end at a position
(14:15):
that's not valued.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Yeah is that fair?
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
And I remember him at Purdue. Was it either tailback
at Purdue or was and then with Warwick Dunn he
became the fullback with Tampa Bay as a good team.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
I saw Mike Mike Allstart play a high school game.
Can you imagine what that was like for the opposition.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I can't imagine Derrick Henry playing a high school game.
Like there's certain guys. I remember seeing Julio Jones play
a high school game and I'm going, my god, that
guy could be the greatest receiver I've ever seen. And
then you see these little dbs that are like five
seven one five and trying to cover had some guys
(14:58):
six ' five Davian Clowney. I mean, come on, it
looked like.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
It looks like one of those movies like Fast Times
at Ridgemont High when the football players destroying every.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
Mortis Whitaker, Yeah, yes, Mark, I worked the high school
game in South Carolina for the Mothership and I saw
aj Green and I was like, this is it right? Guys, guys,
these guys have algebra class.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
This isn't right.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
No, no, no, yes, Todd.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
I remember seeing high school footage of the bus in Detroit,
and I don't know who would get in front of that.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
There are just certain guys where you go that that
just wouldn't be fair. But I'll flip around sometimes where
you'll see these games in different cities on direct TV
and you'll be like, oh, you know what, here's a game.
It's at Ohio Football and you'll watch and you'll go,
oh my god, like that guy is going to play
(15:46):
on Sundays. All right, we'll take a break. Ol Michael's
gonna join us. Coming up next back after this.

Speaker 13 (16:13):
And that's why we have a brand new podcast called
over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun in
our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for. Yeah, you blubber list name in me.
Speaker 12 (16:27):
Well you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.
Speaker 13 (16:31):
Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna
be talking sports, of course, but we're also gonna talk

on YouTube. But definitely join us. Listen Over Promised with

Speaker 2 (17:08):
More phone calls coming up. Will Ferrell's going to join
us on the program tomorrow. I believe Is that right, Todd?
Speaker 4 (17:13):
That is correct, and Dodgers managed to Dave Roberts.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Okay, well, thank you. Let's bring in the Hall of
Famer Al Michaels. He'll be on the call with Kirk
kurb Street tonight. It'll be Amazon Prime kick off at
eight fifteen Eastern only on Prime Video. Al, I'm curious
how much advice you give to a analyst. Let's say
Tom Brady was going to be your analyst to start
out Game one, how much information advice would you have
(17:39):
given him leading into Game one?
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Well, I actually have talked to Tom on a couple
of occasions, and you know, five dead seconds on television
macheing like a minute. So you don't have to be
a racehorse who can't wait to get out of the gate.
The replay will wait, let the game to you. And
I know a lot of people say be yourself. That's
(18:04):
just too much of a cliche, much too general. But
look a guy like Tom, he's going to know the
game inside out. But it's a matter of rhythm. It's
getting you know, in sync with Kevin Burkhart. I think
he's done extremely well the first two games. Listening to
the truck, it's easy for people to think, Oh, you
go into the booth and just spew all of your
(18:26):
knowledge about football. But you know as well as I do.
You've got people in your ear, you've got the crowd screaming.
You know, a lot of things are happening at once.
I mean it's almost like you know, the truck is
air traffic control and you're trying to land the plane
and land it safely. So I think Tom has done Look,
I know he got a lot of heat. I guess
(18:47):
after the first game. I thought it was pretty good
coming out of the gate. I thought he did a
really good job. But take your time. You don't have
to race to be there, and pretty much, I guess
in general terms, I would say, let the game come
to you. See you'll go in prepared like crazy, and
you'll want to get a lot of stuff in. But
if it's not happening, it's just wasteful. Let the game
(19:10):
come to you. You'll figure out where it is and
you'll be better for that.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Yeah, I had said after week one, he's got to
learn TV. He knows football, but learning TV is really
tricky because, as you said, I could hear his producer
in his ear at one point and you freeze up
a little bit there, just getting into that rhythm. You know,
it's kind of like surfing. You know there's only one
(19:34):
Kelly Slater, but you can emulate that. You're it's choppy,
you could go under, You're going to get back up,
get back on the board again. And you've got to
make it look easy, sound simple, sound comfortable.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
I have always likened it to the game is the melody.
You're providing the lyrics, so you want it to match's great.
You don't want it to be confidence. You want to
talk about what people are scene, so you don't want
to go astray from They see pictures and then you
(20:06):
have to describe what you see and maybe get into
things that you see and they see, but you know
a lot more about So the key I think is
the rhythm and the balance and not trying to do
too much. And again, you know, like I say, when
guys come into the booth, I said, listen, five seconds
is nothing. It's going to seem like a minute. It
(20:29):
is only five seconds. Relax. You don't have to talk
over everything that's on the screen. You just don't and
you just you know, make it and feel where the
game is too. When the game is great, you're ratcheting
up a little bit. When the game is not so great. Okay,
you don't make too much of a bad game, because
otherwise now you're just sounding like a shill. And I think,
(20:51):
you know, look, Tom will get better and better. I
think at the end of the day, he's going to
be one of the best ever.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Talking to Al Michaels, he'll be on the call with
Kirk kurb Street tonight it's the Jets and the Patriots.
Did you guys get a chance to talk to Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
We did. Had a pretty fascinating conversation with him because
I was thinking about the fact that he is really excited.
You know, he's coming back from obviously the torn achilles.
He's back. Looked really good last week leading that game
winning drib against Tennessee. And what he was saying the
other day, he loves the process. He loves Monday through Saturday,
(21:28):
or this week, Monday through Wednesday, use the game is tonight.
He loves building the foundation, the building blocks. He says
that to him is what really is the most exciting
part of the game. And then you see how it's
manifest on Sunday and it's so much in contrast to
all of the years I had Brett Farr and I
covered a ton of games with Brett, and Brett was
(21:49):
the exact opposite. Brett at one point said I'll play
until I'm sixty if I only had to play the games.
He didn't like practice. Berett couldn't wait to get out
of practice. Brett would leave practice and go play nine
holes of golf if he could every day. Very much
in contrast. Now, look they're both great, they're both fantastic quarterbacks,
but it's interesting how the process is so different in
(22:11):
how they got to the game.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, I'm just curious with Rogers that do you think
he'd rather talk football or non football when you when
you're having a conversation both, you know, it's.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Kind of funny. He'll go not far astray, but I
mean he is Aaron is extremely intelligent. He is very
well read. He's had tons of experience, I mean going
around the world and just absorbing everything. Aaron wants to
absorb everything that's around him. It's not just football. And
(22:45):
he's very perceptive. He sees how people react to him.
I mean sometimes you'll sit in the room with him
and he'll he'll see you, and if you begin to
like your thoughts waiver, he'll go, hey, get up, wake
up here, come on, come on, come on. He's very
perceptive in that regard. He's extremely well read, extremely smart.
(23:07):
But I think you know, Aaron is the kind of
guy he'd like to talk about under you name it football, great,
you want to talk about philosophy, whatever, anything else, the
current events, whatever, He can go anywhere.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Did you ever have a bad production meeting with somebody?
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Sure, Well, when you say bad, there are guys who
come in and they don't want to talk and they
don't want to say anything. And it's not that they're
angry with you or anything, because if they come in
and they agree to do the production meeting, you know
they have said, okay, I'll sit in there. But a
lot of times, you know, what's wasteful for us anyway
(23:42):
is you get nothing. And a lot of the young
guys that are like that way. What I have found
through the years, though, is these players now, the younger
guys have grown up in the television world. They've been
getting interviews since they were in high school. They know
how to do it, they understand it, and the pr
people are now talking to them, telling them, hey, here's
what you have to give, you know, and a lot
(24:03):
of them right now you know what it is. Then
they're building their brand, so they love being a part
of this.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
If you the Hall of Fame we've been talking about
the first two hours here the new nominees for the
Hall of Fame or they're on the ballot. Now, are
you a stat guide for a Hall of Fame or
just the name recognition and you know it's a Hall
of Famer.
Speaker 5 (24:27):
The latter because you can look at numbers and make
numbers dance anyway you want. But I look at a guy,
and for those of us who have been around the
game a long long time, and especially for the voters,
you can see that person. You can watch him play,
you can think about how he played, you can think
about how he played him in big games. I think
that is more important because the statistics can, you know,
(24:51):
make it seem as if, oh, this guy was the
greatest of all time or not as great as we
thought he was. I don't buy into that. I think
I just try to look at the whole body of
his career and see if I think that guy has
swallow fame worded, Hey, by the way, the one bad
production meeting we did have Buddy Ryan probably nineteen eighty
(25:11):
seven or eighties with Philadelphia, and he didn't like for
some reason, he didn't he hated these meetings, and he
called me a soccer announcer. I remember into a soccer
game in my life. Cantankeri is Buddy Ryan.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
I had a bad run in with him too, al yeah, yeah.
He scolded me for asking about protecting Randall Cunningham this
season after Cunningham got sacked like sixty four times, and
I said, what did you do in the off season
to ensure that Randall won't get sacked as many times?
And he just blurted out, Oh, We're just gonna let
(25:47):
everybody sack him, and then he walked away. Pr Guy
Crafting brought him back. I asked the same question, he
answered it the same way. I was like, oh, yeah, buddy,
and I didn't ever see eye to eye, but at
least he didn't Kevin Gilbride.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
Me, Kevin, what did he What did he do to you?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
No, Buddy punched Kevin?
Speaker 5 (26:10):
Oh correct, here you go, right, I forgot about that.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Punched him on this on the sideline the Otani situation, Like,
what would fifty to fifty mean to you? I know
we're kind of numbed to numbers now, it feels like
in all sports. Yeah, but fifty to fifty means what
fifty to fifty?
Speaker 5 (26:31):
I mean you talk about Otani home runs, stolen bases,
clutches and all that. I cannot you know, living in
LA I can't wait for him to pitch next year.
That's what I can't wait for.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
I mean, you.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
Forget about this guy. I watched the pitch of a
one hit shutout against Detroit last year, and then I
think too there was a first game of a doubleheader
and he hit two home runs in the other game.
I mean, he is the one off of one off.
They talked about, you know, since Babe Ruth, and they're right.
I mean, Babe Ruth could pitch, he could hit. We
know what his career was like. So I really can't
(27:06):
wait for Otani next year to you know, to get
into that rotation. He is as special as they've ever come.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Is Kirk Does he bring his dog to every game?
Speaker 5 (27:15):
The dog is here. We had our meeting. The dog
is here. The dog, the dog. The dog was in
repose today, let's put it that way. And the dog.
The dog even passed up on the bacon, which wasn't
very good at the at the buffet this morning. But
Ben is Ben is here on a regular basis.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
He is.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Have you had somebody bring a pet into the booth
before to broadcast a game with?
Speaker 5 (27:40):
No? No, I've worked with a few pets, but I've
never had anybody. But you know, I'm not an animal person.
I've never had an animal in my life. I've never
had a goldfish man. But I kind of fell in love.
I mean, Ben is like a gorgeous Golden Retriever and
he's you know, and Kirk has him off the leash
(28:04):
and he's just he's right there with him, and he's
so smart. We're in a hotel last year and we
get out of the elevator and it's Kirk and me
and Ben, and there was a maze to get to
Kirk's room, you know, walk like a Grand Prix course
in the in the hallway, and then the dog found
the room. It was it was unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Are you considering getting a dog?
Speaker 5 (28:25):
I am not considering getting a dog, but I you know,
but no, but one day I would like to announce
the Westminster Kennell Dog Show. I think that would be
a lot of fun. That's one thing I haven't done.
But I got to say. I'm not saying it's on
my bucket list, but you know what, would I say?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
There's a pooch, there's a pooch, pooch, a pooch, punt,
a pooch, a.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
Pooch, a pooch and a mutt. I mean, what do
I know? I don't know if dog breaths? Okay?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Would you do it tongue in cheek like best in
show that mockumentary that they did it has Fred Willard,
I'd have to me, you know you name it, Paulie,
you know the person there who runs this time?
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Absolutely do mister Michaels, if you would like me to.
They're going to stoop you up a second.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
I'll do it with Little Farrell, who's coming on your
show tomorrow. Right, Yes, I want to know what he
thinks of my La Kings this year we really haven't.
You know, he's a huge hockey man. I see him
the parking lot of after another loss. But I'm curious to
know what he thinks about my Kings.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Well, I asked if Will wants to take part in
the Westminster Dog Show. Absolutely yeah, and we'll make TV magic.
That's what we do.
Speaker 5 (29:35):
And then I'll bring up a name that nobody will
ever remember, Rudd Weatherwax, who was the trainer for a Lassie. Okay,
there you go. I know I'm dating myself, but what
the hell? One of the great names in history. I
think he just passed to weather Wack. I think I
think he I think wow, I think wow. Yeah, have
(29:55):
fun tonight.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Now.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
The stuff you learned on this show, it's fantastic.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
I got to start listening to it.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
I haven't seen you in a while on the show.
Let's do it regularly.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Come on, thank you, thank you. That's Al Michaels once
again trying to help Al with his golf. With his
swing Johnny Miller, Al belongs to a great golf course,
La Belair. Yes, yes, well a couple of things.
Speaker 3 (30:21):

animal trainer and breeder. He passed away in eighty five.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Oh, I thought he just passed away. It seems like
it's just yesterday.
Speaker 8 (30:39):

used before.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Swinging a musket for the jets.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Hey, good job?
Speaker 4 (33:49):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Thanks?
Speaker 14 (33:49):
Hey, wanting to let you know, so last night I
took my fourteen year old daughter to the Green Day concert. Okay,
but I wanted to show my allegiance, so I wore
my stay in Your Lane shirt and since they were
playing the Dukie album, my Crappensburg State hat. And let
me tell you, it's not easy trying to explain that
joke to a fourteen year old. He did not get it.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
But all right, well, thank you, thank you Jake for
flying the Colors. We got to get Billy Joe Armstrong
on one of these days, you know I can. I
can tell him, you know, like I went to the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Speaker 5 (34:25):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
He probably shouldn't come on because then I have to
explain that I'm not a fan.
Speaker 5 (34:29):
Agree.
Speaker 7 (34:29):
Do you think he'd appreciate that if you if you
were like, hey, why are you in the rock and
Roll Hall of Fame? I don't know that he would
probably not. Goda admit he's very defensive over his band,
Is he very Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Oh well they're in the Hall of Fame? Well is
he defensive because people criticize them getting in the hall
of Fame? No?
Speaker 7 (34:47):
No, well, you know what, Actually, to be fair, maybe
he used to be defensive. Maybe now he's not anymore,
but there was a point in time where he's very
defensive of his band, rightfully, So I.
Speaker 2 (34:55):
Think, yeah, I guess I just not. I didn't get
into it. Why are you in the rock and roll Yeah?
Well he might say why are you in the Broadcasting
Hall of And sometimes it gives you the creeps.
Speaker 7 (35:09):
Maybe it's mind flowing trick thone.
Speaker 2 (35:11):
Okay, yes, yes, Paul.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
I do remember some articles in the nineties calling Green
Day pop punk, and they probably didn't enjoy that.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
M probably, I don't know if it got to them.
I mean, I don't know if the message got to
Green Day. Oh I don't know. That looks like Mike
Florio is trying to steal something from us.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
Oh what a plot.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Speaking of pop punks, fifty yard field goals are becoming
virtually automatic. To make kicks more uncertain, would the NFL
ever raise the crossbar or narrow the uprights? Hello, Mike,
what day did we do that? Monday or Tuesday? And
I said we should go, you know, like twenty yards
(35:53):
it's here, and then thirty yards. It comes in, forty yards,
it comes in, fifty yards it comes in, So we
make it a little more challenging. Now, Florio picking up
the baton. Mike, just give credit. Okay, we're just kidding, Mike.
I think I'm guilty of not giving Mike credit for
all the things that we steal from him. Andrew in Vegas, Hi, Andrew,
(36:16):
what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (36:18):
What's up?
Speaker 10 (36:18):
DP?
Speaker 5 (36:19):
How you doing? Good?
Speaker 14 (36:19):
Shirt?
Speaker 10 (36:21):
Two quick things, Paulie, it was not relaxing going on
sixteen as a Lions fan and DP decent show.
Speaker 14 (36:30):
Keep your head up, You'll find your groove, can you?
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Thank you?
Speaker 10 (36:33):
Thank you?
Speaker 2 (36:34):
And still working on it. One of these days I'm
going to have the perfect show one of these days.
Haven't had it yet, but I hope too in the
next three and a half years. Where I think we
were pretty close last week to having maybe a perfect show.
I don't know what day it was. My memory is
(36:54):
not perfect, so I can't remember when we almost had
a perfect show.
Speaker 8 (36:58):
Yes, in Vegas during the Super Bowl, when we had
Cam Newton and Brent Mussburger, Yeah, and Jim NANTZ. That
show was as it's the best show I've ever been on. Really,
that show from top to bottom, everything was hitting that day.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
Okay. I usually asked Paulie how good the show was,
Like I'm not a good judge of it. I'll be like,
you know, what'd you think? And Paulie of go, no,
it's good. Now if he says no, it's good, then
I know, okay, Like that's serviceable.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Well, our bar for ourselves is pretty high. So a
good show is what we is a standards we should
have that. Sometimes there are shows that you remember two
years later, and Marvin's got a good point that Cam
Newton's appearance was great, Jim nance and you talked about
Brent Musburger. There's a lot going on that day.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
I hope there's some more movement with people getting behind
the Brent Musburger should be in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame as a contributor I know this is going
to sound cold, and if it does, I apologize. I
don't want people doing this after Brent's gone. Okay, that's
(38:05):
I guess. As direct as I can be with this,
I want him to be able to enjoy this. I'm
sure he's healthy. I hope he lives a long life.
He invented the pregame show, He's been involved in the
sport sports forever. Contributions for the Pro Football Hall of Fame,
this one's easy. The fact that they missed John Facenda,
(38:26):
who should have already been in. And I don't have
my connection at the Pro Football Hall of Fame that
I used to, or I would try to get out
in front of this. I sent a letter on behalf
of John Facenda, the voice of NFL Films. But I
just hope Brent should be in the Hall of Fame. Now,
maybe there's a reason why he's not. Maybe EI there's
(38:47):
something I'm missing, But contributions to the game, he's right
up there. Tim in Ohio, Tim, thanks for holding.
Speaker 9 (38:56):
A five.
Speaker 11 (39:01):
I outstand of the day, because you guys were talking
about football Hall of Fame. Yep, what coach has two
hundred wins has not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Two hundred wins, not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
PAULI raised his hand.
Speaker 3 (39:18):
The name that popped in my head Don Coriel of
the Charters.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
But I don't know, Okay, hold on, hold on, Timm.
Did he coach the Raiders?
Speaker 5 (39:32):
Tim?
Speaker 9 (39:33):
No?
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Okay, who is it?
Speaker 11 (39:37):
Former Cleveland Brown's head coach Marty Schottenheiber.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Okay, a good man. He was got to know him.
When he was at the mother Ship. You would talk
about somebody who came in and worked. He really did.
He had energy, he had ideas. He was always doing homework,
researching like he wanted to be a great analyst. And
there are a lot of times there'd be just people
(40:02):
stopping through. It is away station, just a pit stop
because they knew they were going to go on to
something else. I saw where John Gruden trying to maybe
get back into coaching, maybe college. I said to Fritzie,
reach out to John, see if the fellow Dayton flyer
would like to come on and tell us.
Speaker 4 (40:17):
We may hear from him in the coming days.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Okayt'd be curious about that. Now he might not be
able to with what the lawsuit going on with the NFL.
I don't know where that stands, but John, going back
to coach college, it'd be pretty cool. Let's go around
the room. Oh you know what this dan? In sports history?
Speaker 3 (40:33):
Paul, just one back when the White Sox were more
fun to attend games. Two thousand and two, Tom Gamboa,
the coach of the first base coach at the Casey Royals,
was attacked by a man and a son White Sox
fans air quotes while he was standing near first base.
The two fans were charged and arrested for battery.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
I had a dream about this, not last night, the
night before that. Greg blue Gainis hit his head on
the diving board nineteen eighty eight, So it was on
this day that he hit his head on the diving
board and then he ended up winning the gold, Say
qualified and then won the gold. I don't know why
I thought about that last night or ninety four? Todd,
(41:11):
would you learn today.
Speaker 6 (41:12):
You appreciate the captive audience that is those watching our
show while incarcerated.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
At Riker's Island. Seaton O'Connor, The mittens idea in the
NFL is kind of going over, yeah, kind of just
make holding legal. Marvin would you learn you're not going
back to Dayton now. I'm not going to quit this
job and do a WOJ.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
Paulie can't wait for the next Westminster Dog Show.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
