0:26
numbering three hundred and sixty two. It
0:29
just dawned on us about ten minutes
0:32
ago, and it's probably
0:34
not the thing that you would think would dawn on us
0:36
on the night the eve of the
0:39
NFL season. I have my Super
0:41
Bowl pick coming up a little bit later on, and
0:43
I've been I didn't
0:46
deliberate, I didn't agonize over
0:48
this, which makes me nervous because normally I
0:50
do, and I hate the process of coming
0:52
up with my Super Bowl pick. But this one
0:54
just came to me at some point and
0:57
it never left me. No, I'm not ready to give
0:59
it to you yet. Point You're gonna have
1:01
to win. Yes, it is. That's a tease
1:03
because this will affect you, know,
1:05
the odds in Vegas, of who's going to win the
1:07
Super Bowl. The bookies are up
1:09
early in Vegas. They're waiting and
1:12
they're listening, and I'll give you
1:14
my super Bowl pick coming up a little bit later on. But
1:17
about ten minutes ago, Seaton
1:19
says, it just
1:22
dawned on me how much money Tony Romo is
1:24
going to make broadcasting football games
1:26
this year? And I said, oh,
1:29
all right, And then he goes seventeen
1:31
million dollars a year. He signed a ten year
1:34
deal. How
1:36
many players does Tony Romo?
1:39
How many? His salary
1:41
is bigger than how many players in the NFL?
1:43
At seventeen million dollars a year? Yes, well,
1:46
just that contract alone is more than he ever made
1:48
in the NFL. Oh
1:52
holy moly. So yeah,
1:54
Tony Romo, this is the big roll out
1:56
here. And what did
1:58
is it? One hundred and seventy million dollars Paul?
2:01
Yeah, and yeah, one hundred
2:03
and eighty million over ten years. Tony
2:05
Romo only made one hundred and twenty seven and fourteen
2:07
seasons at the Cowboys quarterback apers
2:09
creepers. What I want to
2:12
know is who's the next analyst
2:14
who gets that kind of money, Because
2:16
if you're Chris Collinsworth, You're
2:19
far more. He's the most decorated analyst
2:23
probably in history. And I wonder
2:25
if he can go in and say I
2:27
think I need to be
2:29
bumped up a little bit, or Troy Aikman goes in
2:31
and says, hey, I
2:34
think I deserve a little bit more here. Yes, I
2:36
don't know if you're a guy who's been doing this for
2:38
a little while that you could be like, oh, by the way,
2:40
now I want fifteen more million dollars
2:42
a year. It's like, this is what's gonna get
2:45
Peyton Manning to come out of the But
2:48
Peyton Manning could have gotten this kind of money, yeah,
2:50
but now he can get even more of that kind of money. Now. I
2:52
don't know if Peyton Manning wants
2:54
to do this. I think we want
2:56
Peyton Manning to do it. I don't think Peyton
2:58
wants to do it. Network is like, all right,
3:01
Peyton, we'll give you ten years, twenty million dollars.
3:03
All right, excuse me, ten years two hundred
3:05
million dollars twenty million a year to
3:07
work a twenty
3:10
weeks a year if that. Yeah, But I
3:12
think that he wants to be there for his
3:14
kids, and I think once they get to a certain age,
3:16
then he might entertain this. I
3:18
think we want to see that because we
3:20
think that Peyton Manning would be I think Peyton
3:23
Manning would be even better than Tony Romo.
3:25
Now, Tony provided almost
3:28
that voice of enthusiasm,
3:31
like it's excitement, like he's watching
3:33
the game with you, and you
3:36
know John Madden did this. John Madden
3:38
was the first to really give you that sound
3:40
effects and he was excited and it
3:43
just felt like he was bringing you closer to the
3:45
game. Collinsworth is so good
3:47
because his ability to tell you something
3:49
that is going to happen or something that
3:51
just happened, and he breaks it down as if he's
3:54
seen that play five times. And
3:56
Tony had that excitement of hey,
3:59
this play is coming. And I don't know
4:01
what his prediction success rate
4:03
was, but it felt like that first
4:05
year we were enamored
4:08
with everything that he was doing and how he was doing it.
4:10
The undersold part
4:13
of this was Jim Nance's ability to
4:15
kind of gather whatever Tony Romo did
4:18
and then he would be able to bring it back and
4:20
give you his play by play in real
4:22
time, because that's hard to do being
4:24
the straight guy in a situation like that, it's
4:27
really difficult to do. And
4:30
you know dick By Town when Dickie V was doing all
4:32
these marquee games and then you'd have a play
4:34
by play voice that sort of had to bring it all
4:36
back. By the way, Dicky V will join us coming
4:38
up next hour. John Calipari,
4:40
the Kentucky head coach, will join us. The
4:43
ACC all the coaches
4:45
voted unanimously that they want to have everybody
4:48
in the NCAA tournament. Everybody
4:50
goes into the pool. Three hundred
4:52
and what's sixty three schools get
4:54
to make March Madness.
4:57
Now, do you start March Madness in February
5:00
just to get it all in? I don't. I don't know how that works
5:02
because March Madness used the ends in
5:04
April as well, so you might be taken
5:06
up the end of February through March
5:08
and then early April. But we'll
5:11
talk to coach Cowell about that coming up in
5:13
a little bit. Eight seven seven three

5:20
Last night, it was the Raptors
5:22
over the Celtics in double overtime. Clippers
5:25
go up three one on the Nuggets, Lakers,
5:27
Rockets. That's tonight at seven, and
5:30
then you have the Texans in Chiefs, so
5:32
they're they're flexing into an
5:34
earlier time slot for the Lakers
5:36
and the Rockets being in a bubble. You can
5:39
do this. If this was in Los Angeles,
5:41
I wonder if they would be if this was being played
5:43
at Staples, if they would do it or
5:45
be able to do it. But starts at seven
5:48
tonight and Texans and then the Chiefs,
5:50
and it's hard to believe the season's kicking off.
5:52
You know, we didn't have any preseason here, but the
5:54
NFL had more time than anybody
5:57
to observe all the leagues. What they did
5:59
right, they did wrong, And
6:02
here we are with football tonight, the Chiefs against
6:04
the Texans, and for the first time in a long
6:06
time, the Patriots are not looming large over
6:08
the AFC. I don't have them making the playoffs.
6:11
Tom Brady's gone to Kansas City could
6:14
be the new dynasty. But I started
6:16
to wonder about this. You know that we
6:18
looked at the Super Bowl and we know they
6:20
were down ten with what
6:23
seven minutes to go. Yeah,
6:26
they were trailing in all of their games in the postseason.
6:29
They were down twenty four to nothing to
6:31
the Texans, and the one play
6:33
that should stand out in Chief's
6:35
history as one of the most underrated
6:38
plays in the NFL in
6:40
NFL history, and I'm not overselling
6:43
this, Daniel Sorensen
6:46
stopping the fake punt by
6:49
the Texans when the Texans were up twenty
6:51
four to nothing and
6:54
then I think twenty four to seven. He stops
6:56
them, and it's eight minutes to go in the second quarter
6:58
and he stops them with a fake punt and
7:01
then all of a sudden they score and
7:03
it changed the momentum. So you
7:05
have that where you're down. They were down
7:07
twenty four to nothing in that game, rallied
7:10
to win. Look at the Super Bowl. They
7:12
were in trouble in the Super Bowl six
7:16
minutes ago. You're down ten and Patrick
7:18
Mahomes was not playing well at all. And
7:22
you look back on the Patriots dynasty,
7:25
how many times did they win or
7:27
lose in dramatic fashion? David
7:31
Tyree, Mario
7:33
Manningham with his catch down the
7:35
sidelines, and then you had
7:38
Vinitari with a couple of field goals
7:40
to win, Malcolm
7:42
Butler with the interception. Like when
7:44
we talk about dynasties, like, it's
7:47
not dominating, they're just
7:50
winning, they're surviving. You
7:52
know, the Patriots could easily have two
7:54
less Super Bowls or two
7:57
more Super Bowls. And now we're looking
7:59
at Kansas and say, wow, they're a dynasty.
8:02
They barely survived and
8:05
they should have lost the Super Bowl because
8:09
San Francisco forgot that Tyreek Hill
8:12
was the fastest player on the field. And
8:14
that was another one of those
8:16
plays. That play and
8:19
Sorenson's play against the
8:21
Texans, those are the two that stand
8:23
out. And Mahomes
8:25
stayed in there knowing he was going to get hit right
8:27
in the mouth by Bosa, and
8:29
he hung in there as long as he could.
8:32
I think it was a third and thirteen. So we
8:34
talk about these dynasties and the
8:37
Chiefs. I don't know if they're a dynasty.
8:39
They could have easily gotten knocked out a couple
8:41
of times in the postseason before
8:43
they got to the Super Bowl. They did
8:45
have a good offseason because they were able
8:47
to give the contract extension
8:50
to Mahomes. I love that they brought in Clyde
8:52
Edwards Hilaire out of LSU, and
8:55
you start to look they know that their competition
8:58
is going to be Baltimore. Maybe another team
9:00
emerges, but they had a lot of things
9:02
go right for them last year. I
9:04
don't know if anybody is thinking or was
9:07
thinking dynasty last year, but
9:10
we could be talking about this today where the
9:14
Super Bowl champion forty nine
9:16
Ers and Jimmy Garoppolo would open up
9:18
the season tonight had they won, and
9:21
we would be looking at the Niners
9:23
and Jimmy Garoppolo completely
9:25
different. And then would
9:27
we be looking at maybe Kansas
9:30
City still being a dynasty. If
9:32
San Francisco gives Raheem
9:35
most the ball on second
9:37
down in five, they
9:40
run the clock. The clock
9:43
was your friend there and
9:46
the Chiefs weren't stopping Mostar, so
9:51
it was like it small things.
9:53
If Chris Jones doesn't get his hand up and
9:56
knock the pass down, San
9:59
Francisco winds as
10:02
mahomes the face of the sport if he doesn't
10:04
win and doesn't look good and get
10:07
a half a billion dollars. So
10:10
before we go all in on Kansas City and
10:12
go they got it all figured out. Future
10:14
is great. It appears that way.
10:17
You got a great tight end, couple
10:19
of dangerous wide receivers, you
10:21
got an electric rookie running
10:23
back. There you got Andy Reid, still
10:26
got a good offensive line. Defenses
10:29
is good, you know, good
10:31
enough. So before
10:34
we want to I think, put that rubber
10:36
stamp and go there's your next dynasty. Maybe
10:40
it is, but understand that these dynasties,
10:43
it's very fragile as far as
10:46
if you don't have the tuck roll, if
10:48
they don't impose that bogus tuck roll
10:50
with Brady against the Raiders and Charles Woodson,
10:53
then Vinetary doesn't kick the field goal
10:56
to send them to a Super Bowl. Vinetary
11:01
winning a couple of Super Bowls, what
11:04
if he misses miss is one of the two.
11:08
So when you look back and you go, gosh
11:11
that they were a dynasty, you
11:13
know, in our modern definition of a dynasty,
11:15
they are. But
11:17
they barely won games,
11:20
barely lost games, and
11:23
Kansas City could have easily flamed
11:25
out early in the postseason. But you
11:27
know with that we have Kansas City against the Texans.
11:30
If you're Bill O'Brien, head coach
11:32
of the Texans, do you show the
11:35
game footage from last year's
11:38
meeting with the Chiefs. Do
11:40
you start the tape at twenty
11:42
four nothing or
11:45
do you stop at twenty four to nothing.
11:48
Yeah, because that's where you go in and you'd
11:50
go, oh, we got to watch game film from
11:53
last year? Oh do we have to? Because
11:56
I don't want you to walk it out with your you know, this
11:59
glazed over look like, oh
12:01
my god, what does happen? Because
12:04
it'll if it's not already
12:06
inside you. I mean, that is
12:08
painful. And then I go
12:10
back to the Patriots against
12:12
the Atlanta Falcons. If the Falcons
12:15
run the ball three times, they're
12:19
going to win the Super Bowl. And
12:23
they threw the ball and then Matt
12:26
Ryan gets sacked, and then
12:28
all of a sudden, everybody said the same
12:30
thing, Patriots
12:33
going to win another super Bowl. And
12:35
you know what, the Falcons knew
12:38
the Patriots were going to win another super Bowl.
12:41
They had time and they had
12:43
tom. But
12:47
that's how close it is too. You
12:50
could win, you could lose. And
12:53
I think we think dynasties is you beat everybody
12:55
by two touchdowns and it's
12:58
not. I mean, there are
13:00
teams that have gone through history. I
13:02
don't think the Cowboys, you know they
13:05
had the game against Buffalo
13:07
or no, they blew them out too. I don't
13:09
know if the Cowboys with their three three year run.
13:12
Were those Super Bowls close at all? Because
13:14
they probably weren't Green Bay Packers when
13:17
they won their first two Super Bowls. Those games
13:19
weren't close. But
13:23
I think Dallas roughed up just about
13:25
everybody. If I'm
13:27
not mistaken, there is that right mclubbing.
13:30
I believe so was the first one might
13:33
have been a little close. I can't even remember remember
13:35
there was a one. Uh god, I don't
13:38
know, Okay, but the Broncos, yeah
13:40
they were fodder, Yes they
13:42
were. Guest boy. I'm watching back the clips
13:44
from the Houston Texans KANCI Chiefs last
13:46
year, and Houston's up twenty four zero
13:49
in the second quarter. The defensive backs on
13:51
the Houston sidelines are dancing around or waving
13:53
towels. They're laughing at each other and having fun,
13:56
and it's like they don't know what's coming, but we
13:58
do. When you're watching the replay, there's this big truck
14:00
about to be unleased. It's gonna roll down hill on you.
14:02
I'd better sitting there and dancing around. But nothing
14:05
worse than the Falcon sidelines when
14:08
they're up twenty eight to three and
14:10
the mics are on NFL Films is picking
14:12
up the audio, the ambiance sound,
14:15
and that came back to hunt
14:17
you. Yeah see, I love I forget who it is. But
14:19
the Mohammed
14:22
Sanu is like, oh man, we're good. We gotta end
14:24
the guy next one. Gonnah, Man, that's Tom Brady. I know.
14:26
He's like, don't say that. Don't say that, that's Tom
14:28
Brady. No, No, we're good. We're good by
14:31
no day, dude, don't say that.
14:34
That was the only voice of reason on the sidelines because
14:37
you're up twenty eight to three and you're like, we're gonna
14:39
win the Super Bowl. Yeah, I'm mclov we're
14:41
having a side argument here. Uh, there's
14:44
no way the Texans were coming out of that
14:46
game with a win or even a cover. I thought
14:48
like, even though it's twenty four nothing, the Niners
14:50
obviously could have won, definitely could have won. But
14:53
did it feel like, no matter what happened, the Chiefs
14:55
were winning that Texans game. I don't know why. Maybe
14:57
that's Monday morning quarterback. Well
14:59
it was twenty four to nothing. I
15:01
and you have Deshaun Watson, like, I have to
15:03
be respectful to that team. I'm not
15:05
big on Bill O'Brien as their coach, but they
15:08
were up twenty four to nothing. You
15:10
knew Kansas City would come back because they had
15:13
some firepower. I didn't know if the Chiefs
15:15
defense could step up because
15:17
that was the big difference to me. I
15:19
expected the Chiefs offense to be great. I
15:22
just didn't know if the
15:24
tight or the Texans defense
15:26
was going to be formidable, Like were they going to
15:28
be able to play defense? And were they
15:30
going to score more points here? Because the
15:33
Chiefs had to step up and the Chiefs
15:35
defense stepping up when they needed
15:37
to, that was the difference here.
15:39
And I expected Mahomes to put up points. Yeah,
15:41
mcclub. Is there any chance the Texans have
15:43
a bit of a revenge game tonight? Like
15:46
it's a little late for revenge, but nobody's
15:49
taught, you know, nobody's talking about the Texans is even
15:51
competing tonight? Is there any way even
15:53
after lousy Hopkins that like they shocked the world
15:56
because you know how these opening night games are
15:57
there, they're a little wonky. Well,
16:00
they can win now, but to win a game in
16:02
September as not a revenge
16:04
match. But if you win in January,
16:07
that's a revenge match when it really
16:09
means something. This is just the season opener,
16:12
and they're probably gonna look sluggish.
16:15
You know. I don't know if it's the offenses that don't
16:17
look great to start out with because
16:20
there's no preseason there, but
16:23
I'm gonna guess we have some raggedy
16:25
football coming up this weekend. Yeah.
16:28
Point, you brought up the forty
16:30
nine ers. They had the ball on
16:33
first and ten, up twenty
16:35
to ten against the Chiefs. They give the lot of moster to
16:37
get six yards in
16:39
completion. Yeah,
16:42
and then in completion ye. Man,
16:45
the clock is your friend, and
16:48
most it was great, and
16:51
it just felt like, you, this is what their
16:53
success is predicated on running the
16:56
football. And
16:59
if you have to have Jimmy Garoppolo throw a pass,
17:01
okay, but at least he's
17:03
ben he benefits from you
17:05
know, third and four, second
17:08
and five. But in
17:10
that situation, I don't want
17:12
to throw the football. It actually happened twice.
17:14
It happened with ten minutes left in the game. They're up ten. Most
17:16
of it runs for six yards on first
17:18
down. Then they're up twenty to seventeen
17:20
with six minutes to go in the game. Most
17:22
are it runs for five yards on first down
17:25
incomplete pass incomplete pass punt. Yeah,
17:28
and that was it. That was it.
17:31
Yeah, So you look at these
17:34
moments and go back to that
17:36
fake punt because if
17:39
they don't, if they don't punt it, I mean, you know,
17:41
you put Kansas. The momentum shift
17:43
was so strange. It was tangible
17:45
on the field. When you're watching, You're going, why
17:48
did they just have a fake punt? It
17:51
was one of those where everything was going right and
17:54
they had another opportunity where they could have gone up
17:56
twenty eight to nothing, but they kicked
17:58
a field go instead. Oh,
18:02
it's like, what's the uh the Lindsey
18:05
Lohan and Jamie Lee
18:07
Curtis the body switch movie.
18:09
The two teams switched. Yeah, what is that movie?
18:12
Freaky Friday? I
18:15
act like I didn't know Freaky Friday?
18:18
Is that what it is? There? Yes? Yeah,
18:19
I think I answered too quickly.
18:22
Are you is it the Parent Trap
18:24
or Freaky Friday? Because there's two? Uh
18:28
No, I think you're right Freaky. I just love that Hollywood
18:30
keeps going back to that. I got an idea for
18:32
a movie. Yeah, they're gonna switch
18:34
bodies, right. Someone called judge
18:36
Ryan Hoot follow me, follow me on this, Okay, Yeah,
18:38
there's two people and then
18:40
somehow they switch bodies. Right, you're
18:42
with me? Yeah, I love it? Or
18:45
thirteen going on thirty, which I
18:47
do love. Who's in that? Uh,
18:50
Jennifer Garner, Mark Ruffalo in the
18:52
Yeah, Mark Ruffalo is a place her boyfriend.
18:55
If you want to do a whole segment of rom comps after nineties
18:57
Rock Yesterday. Yeah, yes, the
19:00
Change Up right with Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman
19:02
where they were in each other's
19:04
difference in each other's bodies. That was there
19:06
a twenty eleven movie called The Change Up.
19:08
Yeah, I mean I don't remember that, but
19:11
yeah, Freaky Friday. That's kind of what happened
19:13
with the Chiefs in the Texans Yesma
19:15
Club. Yeah, there's remember
19:18
there was did you go all of the body switch? Kirk
19:20
Camera and Judge Reinhold Fred Savage.
19:23
They've got at least forty Yeah, you see, you didn't watch
19:25
movies in nineteen ninety four. That was I was
19:27
getting busy, that's all that walk into
19:29
a funhouse on the Coney Island boardwalk.
19:31
Okay, follow me on this right, and they look
19:33
into a mirror and then all
19:36
of a sudden, well you had Tom
19:38
Hanks and Big where
19:40
you know, he became a younger version
19:42
or something like that.

19:53
I loved Big. I thought Big was a
19:56
brilliant movie with you
19:58
know, just the tone of it and Tom
20:01
Hanks playing a little
20:03
guy, a little boy. Yes. I
20:06
saw out a podcast the other day that Robert DeNiro
20:08
desperately wanted that role in Big, or
20:10
maybe we talked about it here or maybe I heard from one of you guys.
20:13
Can you imagine him in that movie playing
20:15
the role of Tom Hanks? Yeah, no,
20:19
no, yeah, point yeah. Robert de Niro,
20:22
Um, how he ended up doing like Analyze this
20:24
is because he wanted to do a comedy. He wanted to break
20:26
out from the tough guy mafia roles, and
20:28
he lobbied to be in the movie Big, and
20:30
they said no, and they gave it to Tom Hanks. And
20:33
then after that, de Niro was still pushing to
20:35
be in a comedy and he either did Analyze
20:37
This or Meet the Fockers or something, but
20:39
he wanted Big Midnight Run, Midnight
20:43
Midnight Running. He was great. That's
20:45
a great buddy movie. Great.
20:48
But yeah, I thought he deserved
20:50
an Academy Award nomination for Meet
20:53
the Fockers. He was great in that he
20:56
was His comedic timing
20:58
was spec jacular. But
21:00
we don't honor, you know, comedy the
21:02
way we should. And it's the toughest thing to do. By
21:06
the way, nobody is talking about this today, I
21:08
don't think so. We are setting
21:11
the table for other shows fresh off
21:13
of nineties pop rocks. Yesterday,
21:16
we're leading the show with body Switch movies
21:19
and then footballs back. People who reached
21:21
out yesterday after the show, all they
21:23
did is send, like, you know, one
21:25
of their favorite bands of the nineties. That's all they
21:27
would text me. I have a good this day
21:30
in nineties music history. By
21:32
the way, I gotta take a break here. By the way,
21:34
there is football coming up tonight. We
21:36
will talk to Dick Fight Talent. He's
21:38
got a new book out about the Lost season.
21:41
Lsho's gonna allow fans at games. We'll talk about
21:43
that. The Braves scored twenty nine
21:46
on the Marlins and they won, by the
21:48
way, but I don't
21:50
know about that. Unwritten rule like are you allowed to
21:52
keep swinging for home runs when you're up like twenty
21:55
four runs? Something like that. I
21:57
don't know. I'm waiting to hear
21:59
the the purists tell me about
22:01
that. Raptors beating the Celtics and double overtime.
22:03
We got a game seven Clippers up three one on the Nuggets,
22:06
Lakers, Rockets, Tonight Texans Chiefs.
22:08

23:34
up with a poll question, McLevin, you got a
23:36
couple of suggestions for us today. Yes,
23:39
I can hold the best body swap movies, which
23:41
is the bake o one over here Big, It's the number
23:43
one on most lists. Yeah, Big was a
23:45
great movie. There's about there's
23:47
one hundred and forty three of them
23:50
bodies swapping. Yeah, where they
23:53
would have a list of different methods of how the body
23:55
swap happened. Car accident DNA manipulation,
23:58
magic whales. Because
24:01
Seaton's right, this has been pitched and bought
24:03
many times in Hollywood. I
24:06
like Freaky Friday with Jamie Lee Curtis
24:08
and Lindsay Lohan. I do okay,
24:11
uh some pull questions? Should
24:13
the Braves have stopped? I won't
24:16
watch Harry Potter movies or Star
24:18
Trek or Star Wars, but you can be
24:20
Freaky Friday. And I'm right there A father
24:22
swatch and switch his bodies with this sun and
24:25
gets a chance to redo the prom
24:27
he never went to huhn
24:30
that? And then it fixes all of the wrongs
24:32
that ever happened in his life. That's the
24:34
elevator pitch. Yes, McLevin, which
24:36
pull question by a
24:38
time travel movies are also awesome? I want to add, but
24:41
should the Braves have stopped hitting home runs last
24:43
night? Yes? Or no? No? Do
24:45
they really need to be pilot on Grand Slams when
24:48
they're up twenty to seven or something? Well, what are you supposed
24:50
to do? So
24:53
you're gonna take a strike? Oount? What
24:56
are you supposed to do? A clean single to
24:58
left? I don't know, just felt
25:00
like piling on. But don't
25:02
you think if you're scoring ten, They
25:05
can score ten. There's no clock
25:07
in baseball this whole
25:09
you know, unwritten rules. Your
25:12
job is to get me out. My job is to
25:15
get on base and score runs. Like that. That's
25:17
we know that. Everybody knows the transaction
25:20
here. You want to get me out, You
25:22
want to strike me out. You want to point at me when you strike
25:24
me out. Great. You want a homer, you
25:26
want a bad flip, you want to celebrate, go ahead,
25:30
have some fun, and baseball
25:32
doesn't have fun. You
25:34
know the Braves last night. You want to keep pitting
25:36
home runs. Great. I didn't hear anybody
25:39
say, yeah, well, unwritten rules.
25:42
But you know, if Fernando tattoos
25:44
Junior does this, oh, I don't like the way
25:47
he plays, so what get
25:49
him out? Yeah? Until
25:51
they put in a mercy rule, then you gotta do what
25:53
you gotta do. It would be far more humiliating. I would think.
25:56
For a picture of the other team. If you're standing there
25:58
with a bat on your shoulders are purposely missing
26:00
pitches and swinging wildly, yeah, just
26:02
go up there and just you know, swing
26:04
real slow, strikeout
26:07
like these guys want. They want stats.
26:09
Everything you do, how you get paid is
26:12
based off your numbers. So now
26:14
you're supposed to go, No, I'm not going to be
26:16
cashing in on a bad pitcher here. I
26:19
know. I'm gonna wait until you know we have to face
26:21
Clayton Kershaw here. Yeah, but is
26:23
there a line like doing a full core press
26:26
when you're up by thirty or something or doing
26:28
a trick play in football when you're up by a few touchdowns?
26:30
Well, I think that is different. You
26:33
know, that's really kind of you know, put
26:35
into somebody's face where you're trying to
26:37
truly embarrass them. But if
26:40
you're gonna be up by I
26:42
don't know, four touchdowns and it's two minutes
26:44
ago and you throw a fifty yard bomb, then
26:47
I can see where teams are going to be a little
26:49
chafed with that. But in baseball,
26:52
how do I take
26:54
a knee? You know? In football you can
26:56
just hand the ball off, hand the ball off. You know, I'm
26:58
going to hand the ball off in your base sickly
27:00
saying we know the game is over. You know the game is over.
27:02
What are you doing? Baseball? You just hit
27:05
a dribbler like you're trying to hit a dribbler
27:07
to third. You're gonna put down
27:09
a bunt and bunt it right back to the pitcher like
27:11
I would take offense to that. Yeah.
27:13
See, but if the team that's up by
27:15
you know, twenty runs gives up, the
27:18
other team has to give up too. Yeah, you might like
27:21
just just end the game. Then. Yeah, everybody agreed
27:23
to strike out from here on in, and
27:25
that's what we brought up, and Paulie brought
27:27
that up too. It's like, Okay, one team is going to
27:29
give up, then the other team can't go. We're still
27:31
fighting and clawing and it can't
27:34
If you agree not to come back, then fine,
27:36
right. But I saw the numbers there with the Braves
27:38
and I went, all right, it's fine, Like
27:41
I'm okay with it. Well,
27:43
I put the blame, you know, on the
27:45
on the pitching staff that
27:47
was so bad that they're giving up
27:49
twenty nine runs. But
27:53
I don't think anybody said, you know, unwritten rules,
27:56
why is Duval swinging for the downs
27:58
there when they're up by twenty two runs? Go
28:01
up there, you got a bat, use it,
28:04
you got a baseball, strike him out.
28:06
Yeah, yeah, club. I'm always impressed
28:08
when guys dribble the ball out at the end of the game. As a
28:10
former bench warmer. That's an important stat
28:13
opportunity. You know,
28:15
I would always take the lay up, wouldn't you? Yes,
28:17
Yes, if I could, I would. Doesn't
28:20
mean I wouldn't get knocked on my butt, but I
28:22
would do it if I could. Yeah, Polly. By
28:24
the way, with the body switching movies, are we including
28:27
movies where you have an alternate life?
28:29
Is that in the genre of body switching movies?
28:32
For example, there's a movie in nineteen ninety Mister
28:34
Destiny with Jim Jim Blushi where
28:37
he strikes out in the big game as an eighth grader,
28:40
and you know, his life goes bad
28:42
after that, and somehow he has a magic
28:44
cocktail, served of course by Michael Kane, and
28:47
he hits the home run and his
28:49
life turns out to be awesome and he
28:51
got he gets another shot at the life he wanted.
28:54
It's really bad and good at the same time.
28:56
Yeah, set see, I put body
28:58
switch movies in its own ategory
29:00
because like like somebody had brought up
29:02
trading places. That's not a body switch
29:05
movie. That's just like a life switch movie.
29:07
Yeah, where one person's life goes this way and the
29:09
other one goes that way. That's not where the
29:11
mother goes inside the body of the
29:13
daughter and the daughter becomes it goes inside
29:15
the you know what I mean, Like that's a body
29:17
switch movie. Yeah, now that we've
29:19
got the rules, the guideline set, let
29:22
the debate begin. Yes, we love it. That's called it what
29:24
Paul is talking about. It's called the sliding Doors
29:26
movie. That's everybody calls it that. That's a
29:28
real term, sliding doors with Grenth Paltrow.
29:30
Yeah, decides to step off a subway
29:33
and our life changes. That's like the penultimate.
29:35
Actually, what does pen ultimate mean? I don't know, but
29:38
that's like the next to last.
29:42
Did anybody ever come up with
29:44
a pen called penultimate? I
29:47
think you just did. I did. And
29:49
we'll get the Dan Patrick show logo on it, Bang
29:51
and ultimate. We are gonna be rich.
29:53
Make it right, pen ultimate, last but
29:56
one in a series of things? Second last?
29:59
Who was the penn ultimate of the Dean
30:01
ds? Todd? Second to last?
30:07
You have usually covered the last places?
30:09
Wait your say, so Todd is second to last?
30:12
He was, Yeah,
30:16
who is who is last? McLevin?
30:19
Yeah he came out a little later, So okay,
30:23
Oh, Paul was in first, I was in second. Todd
30:25
and oh okay, the hiring
30:28
process. I just thought by value
30:31
contribution and that's why I
30:33
was like, Wow, Todd moving up is
30:35
next to last. Another another
30:37
news, How about the family Man Nicholas Cage two
30:39
thousand You wish they had a different life, less
30:41
stressful than being the investment banker
30:43
with all the money that was. That was a pretty
30:46
good movie too. Do you realize Nicholas Cage
30:48
has the makings of being the
30:50
next Morgan Freeman, of
30:53
being in more movies than
30:55
anybody? Because I
30:59
didn't even realize Cholas Cage has been
31:01
in like there's ten movies that I'd never even
31:03
heard of, but he's in him, And I'll
31:05
go when did he shoot him? When did they release him?
31:08
Nicolas Cage, who's been in a lot of movies.
31:10
He's got a new one coming out soon too,
31:13
Banger. It looks so good. You're right in
31:15
In two thousand and nineteen and twenty and eighteen,
31:18
he was in. He was in eleven movies. Yes, he's
31:20
I don't know any of them. I'll read them to you won't
31:23
believe him. Jiu jitsu grand I'll primal
31:25
kill chain, wait, slow down, kill
31:27
chain. Running with the Devil a Colorado,
31:30
Space A Score to Settle. They're all between
31:33
worlds two eleven looking
31:35
Glass Mandy. Mandy
31:38
was phenomenal. I've never once
31:40
again I would go through like Netflix or
31:42
you know these streaming services or
31:45
Peacock and you see, oh, look
31:48
Nicolas Cage movie, I'll go I don't I
31:50
know that one. Look Nicolas Cage. Don't
31:53
sleep on. One of the greatest comebacks
31:56
in movie history with Nicolas
31:58
Cage. Well, I'm wondering if Quintin Tarantino
32:01
can do for Nicholas Cage what he did for
32:03
John Travel to im pulp Fiction. I
32:06
said it. Although Tarantino
32:08
is not making movies anymore. I think he's he's
32:10
done. But but if he does his comeback,
32:13
we'll coincide withhen Nicolas cages come back.
32:16
Yes, secrets. I
32:18
love too that Nicholas Cage
32:20
has one of those great stories where he made, you
32:22
know, like two hundred and fifty million dollars and
32:24
blew it all on castles and samurai swords.
32:27
Yeah, you're like, wow, this guy is chick
32:29
a man? Yeah, I mean, who wouldn't
32:31
spend your money that way? Yes, John, Since
32:33
you mentioned Cage and Travolta, how about face Off.
32:35
That was quite a movie. No, it was not that
32:38
I did not like that one. I watched that surgery
32:40
so they had each other's face. I watched
32:42
his face off twice this week. I'm
32:45
not kidding. I think face Off is pretty good.
32:48
Yes, face off is awesome. By
32:50
way, Nicholas Cage, He's gonna play Joe Exotic in a
32:52
TV movie about the time.
32:55
Joe Exotic should play Nick Cage. That
32:57
makes it. And then Nick
32:59
Ka was married to Elvis's daughter, yes,
33:03
right, yeah? And then I think he got married
33:05
to a waitress at a restaurant
33:07
where he was having sushi. And I think
33:10
he met a waitress and got married. I
33:12
don't know if they're still married. He's
33:15
there's probably a really fascinating story.
33:17
And then can we get Nick Cajohn
33:19
there, Fritzie. I think he'll be awesome. Wasn't
33:21
also in that movie That Could Happen to You with the Lottery
33:24
and he gave like a waitress like a Bridget
33:27
fund Us? Yeah I was in that. But
33:29
then what his uh, Francis
33:32
Ford Coppola's his his
33:34
actual name is Nick Coppola. Yeah, so as
33:37
Francis his uncle? Is that right? Yes?
33:39
See Texans Chiefs by the way tonight. So
33:42
that's right. We now resume our regularly
33:44
scheduled programming. We'll take a break, we'll settle
33:46
on our poll question. I think we
33:48
got thrown off by Tony Romo's salary
33:51
for some reason. We started the
33:53
show with that. Where we go. You know, Tony Romo
33:55
was gonna make seventeen million dollars a year
33:58
doing twenty games.
34:00
Maybe good for him. Play the day's
34:03
up next, we'll get your pole question
34:05
and Dick Vital will join us a little bit later
34:07

the second time in a week for Adam
34:55
duvall So it was twenty
34:58
five to nine and he he hits
35:00
a Grand Slam. I have
35:02
no problem with him. Braves hang twenty
35:04
nine on the Marlins, most scored by a National League
35:07
team in the modern era. Duval
35:09
had three homers and nine RBIs.
35:11
This is the second straight Wednesday
35:14
with a three home run game. Last week it
35:16
was against the Red Sox. That's courtesy

35:37
Peters of the Eagles is getting
35:39
a pay raise. According to Adam Schefter,
35:42
he wanted a new deal. He's going to get
35:44
upwards of eight million dollars, including
35:47
four million in guaranteed. That's
35:49
according to Adam Schefter. Jason
35:51
Peters a Hall of Famer mclovin. Yes, nine
35:54
time Pro bowler. Yeah, got a Super Bowl.
35:57
The money here is about heat. They signed
35:59
him to play right tackle and then their
36:01
left tackle got hurt. So is that fair
36:04
to give you a raise when you switch positions
36:06
in camp? It feels like a weird
36:08
precedent um. It's
36:11
side question. Why don't the Patriots give Cam Newton
36:13
more money now that he's a starter too? I was wondering.
36:15
I mean, it still strikes you one million is so
36:18
low, But why would you give him
36:20
more if you don't have to give him more? Eagles gave Peters
36:22
more just to keep him happy. Well,
36:25
Peters has been there for a long time. I
36:28
mean, Cam just got there. And
36:32
Cam's more of an unknown this year than
36:35
Jason Peters is, and he maybe
36:37
had some leverage that I don't think Cam has any leverage,
36:40
but he will. He plays well, He's
36:42
gonna get paid a lot of money. Yeah. See, Patriots
36:44
should give Julian Edelman more money. Dude's
36:46
been getting his brains beaten in it for how many
36:48
years? And now he's the last one standing. Throw
36:51
him an extra million. Oh
36:53
yeah, I had
36:55
somebody who cornered me over the weekend
36:57
and wanted to tell me about Julian Edelman
36:59
being a Hall of Famer? Was it me? No, it
37:02
wasn't you. But I just said, he's
37:04
not a Hall of Famer. Yeah,
37:06
but you know, what you do in the postseason. You
37:08
always talk about how that should overshadow
37:11
what you do in the regular season. I said, well,
37:13
should it overshadow what you do in the regular
37:15
season. So Clayton Kershaw doesn't perform
37:18
well in the postseason, therefore that overshadows
37:20
everything he does in the regular season. Greg
37:22
Maddox didn't perform well in the postseason.
37:25
Should that overshadow everything he did during
37:27
the regular season. Julian Edelman
37:29
is, you know, on the short list
37:32
of great postseason
37:34
performers. Absolutely
37:36
let me second in playoff receptions to
37:38
Jerry Rice. He's had some of the greatest
37:41
catches, most important catches in Super Bowl
37:43
history. But he's not a Hall of Famer.
37:46
He hadn't even been an All Pro. He hadn't
37:48
been a Pro Bowl player. Has
37:51
anybody ever gone into the Hall of Fame without
37:53
making a Pro Bowl? I
37:57
don't think so. Yeah, pay he has
37:59
twice as many off receptions as Julio
38:01
Jones, twice as money as Larry
38:03
Fitzgerald, has more than twice
38:05
as many as Terall Owens. I
38:09
just saw this. The Rockets
38:11
reserve Daniel House Juniors
38:14
under investigation by the NBA
38:16
for allegedly allowing a female
38:18
COVID nineteen testing official
38:21
into his hotel room. His
38:24
status for the remainder of the Western
38:26
Conference semis against the Lakers
38:28
is in question. This, according
38:30
to our good buddy Chris Hayes from Yahoo Sports,
38:33
House maintains his innocence. Veteran
38:36
center Tyson Chandler and House were ruled
38:38
out of game three on Tuesday for quotes personal
38:40
reasons. Opposing teams
38:43
are closely monitoring how the league handles
38:45
this situation. House
38:47
is a good player. I mean, you've got to have
38:49
his contribution. He average eleven points.
38:52
You know, he's a decent three point shooter. And
38:55
here you are down two games to one. Yeah,
38:58
seton, Well I's getting tested. Well, it's
39:00
just no, no, she came in. She was just I was just getting
39:02
tested. That's all safety first. Yeah, you got
39:04
big problems though, By the way, if you can't trust the people
39:06
that are giving the tests, if
39:09
right, I mean if or am I misreading this story
39:11
that it was a testing official into his
39:13
room. I think it might have been maybe
39:16
more than just a hey you're
39:18
coming in to test me. It's it's not they don't
39:20
know, That's what I'm saying. Yeah, they don't give
39:22
you a room service, right right, Yeah, that's
39:25
the joke that I'm making. But then what this aside
39:27
from the joke that you have bigger problems if
39:29
you can't trust the people that you've hired to work
39:31
there to follow the rules. Like
39:33
it's a COVID nineteen testing official, and
39:35
they broke the rules. Yes,
39:38
And if this isn't against the rules, every guy in the
39:40
bubble is gonna be buying lab coats yea, and
39:42
stethoscopes. Had hand him out to hot women. Everybody
39:44
who's gonna want to get tested a couple
39:47
of times a day, gonna get tested, Yes,
39:51
COVID nineteen testing, hold
39:54
on, yes time. So basically,
39:55
you've gotta keep your house in order if you have any chance of beating
39:58
the lake. Okay, all right, there's the wind up,
40:00
and there's the pitch. The Raptors of the third
40:02
team in NBA history to win multiple
40:04
overtime games in order to force
40:07
a Game seven. They
40:10
joined the Bucks in seventy four, the Bulls
40:12
in two thousand and nine, and the
40:16
Celtics here they are Game seven. But
40:19
if you don't have that shot ogu
40:22
on Anobi. If
40:24
he doesn't hit that shot, then the
40:26
series is probably over. Boston's
40:29
up three games to one. Now you go
40:31
to a game seven and remember when Kyle
40:33
Lowry had this label of you
40:35
know, playoff choker
40:39
for the lack of a better way to
40:41
describe it. But he didn't perform
40:43
up to the standards that you would expect with Kyle
40:45
Lowry. That's distant memory.
40:48
Kyle Lowry has been great, obviously
40:51
won the title last year, and we look
40:53
at him differently. Pascal
40:55
Siakam has that been the big disappointment
40:58
because I thought, you know, that he could be the difference
41:00
maker and he still can be. But this
41:03
Boston team and what
41:05
happened last night. I got
41:07
Kemba Walker with a ball in his hands. You
41:10
know, did he shoot too soon or did he say,
41:12
all right, I'm gonna take it now I have an opportunity.
41:14
This is the best time to shoot. Like people always
41:16
go, why don't you wait until the last second if
41:18
I can get I want to get a good shot,
41:21
like that's the goal, Get a good shot, not
41:24
take the shot with eight
41:26
tenths of a second to go, because
41:29
chances are that your defender knows
41:31
the clock is ticking, and then they crowd you
41:33
even when they make it even tougher. I
41:35
would like to shoot when I don't need
41:37
to, you know, you don't know that I'm going to
41:39
be shooting. But and then
41:41
Nick Nurse was on the floor last night.
41:45
I mean, you gotta gotta tee him up.
41:47
So he's in the corner his feet
41:49
one of his feet is on the baseline and Tatum
41:52
is driving and one of his teammates
41:54
a few feet of the left. He throws the ball right to Nurse.
41:56
Nurse tries to jump out away and knowing he's in the wrong.
41:59
Do you think the officials kind of got caught flat
42:01
footed and didn't know what to call there, because
42:03
I think if they had to do over, they'd have to check him up, see
42:06
him up. Can't they review that, like,
42:09
I don't know if they can review it in the moment,
42:11
but just to see where he was on the court.
42:13
But he shouldn't have been there, And
42:16
Jason Tatum said, look, I'm not gonna blame it on Nick
42:18
Nurse, you know, but he shouldn't have been on the
42:20
floor. The
42:23
Celtic fans are blaming it on Nick Nurse
42:26
who Celtic fans
42:28
on Twitter last night it was not a
42:30
pretty place to be. But Nick
42:32
Nurse, I don't know if the NBA, you
42:34
know, finds him for being on the floor in a situation
42:37
like that. Yeah, I don't know. It
42:39
feels like the NBA is just like, can we get through
42:41
to the postseason? Can we get the Lakers and Clippers
42:44
playing like, let's just hurry up here? Yeah?
42:46
See, I don't think it was a Nick Nurse that stripped the ball
42:48
from Jalen Brown every time he went down boom,
42:50
Yeah, okay, all right, roasted Okay,
42:55
Nick Clevin. We still didn't come up with a poll question, did
42:57
we. Yeah, we have some, We have some, right, all
42:59
right? So awesome options, all right, So we have to do
43:01
that coming up here at top of the um.
43:03
Yeah, you're going to be impressed with this. I doubt
43:06
that. And my Super Bowl pick will
43:08
be coming up in the final hour of the show. I want
43:10
to drag it out, big
43:12
build up there, big surprise,
