Hour 3 – In or Out, Replacing DP

Published Nov 6, 2024, 5:22 PM

Dan and the Danettes play “In or Out” on the biggest story lines in sports. And the Danettes consider life without Dan Patrick and wonder who might be tapped to replace Dan in the time slot.

You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.

It's the final hour on this Wednesday, Dan and the Dan Nuts Dan Patrick Show come on in stay a while. Good morning if you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner and our radio affiliates around the country, including Fox Sports Radio, iHeart Radio, NFL October VP will vote for that. Coming up, talk about the college football playoff rankings that came out last night. We have brackets already, so if the season ended, we would know these matchups early round matchups and blue bloods going against one another, and people are going to have a problem if BYU wins the Big Twelve, they're there all the way in the quarterfinals. So we'll talk about that coming up. The NBA suspends Joe Ellenbi for three games for an incident with a reporter. You have a basketball tonight including the Celtics and the Golden State Warriors. Can we find out prop bets on over under for Jalen Brown and Jason Tatum the numbers that they could put up against Steve Kerr. Steve Kerr, of course, the Olympic coach who did not play Jason Tatum as much as Celtic fans would have hoped for, and Jalen Brown didn't even make the roster. Here's Steve Kerr talking about what kind of reception he thinks he'll get tonight in Boston. I'm excited.

I think the fans are really going to cheer for me because you know what I did this past summer. I played Drew Holliday and Derek White a ton and given that both guys are are Celtics, and the fact that you know, Tatum also played a huge role in the proceedings, all three guys major fact we won the gold medal. This is America, It's the day after election Day. I think Celtics fans are are going to welcome me with open arms and and just to maybe even like bouquets.

Okay, I liked it a lot of snark in there. Warriors are getting seven against the Celtics. I am big on the Warriors this year. I think sometimes you forget, you know, and we move on. You know, had Minnesota that we had. Denver feels like, you know, is there gonna be another Oklahoma City maybe this year, but Golden State is I think quietly added some pieces you still have Steph Draymond can give it and take it away. But that to me, that's the team to beat out West. You know, the Suns are talented. There's a lot of talent out West. Feels like the East is top heavy with the Celtics. I don't know if you're gonna buy into Philadelphia, I wouldn't the Knicks. They're probably one of the top three teams I would think in the East. Don't know if you have another Milwaukee. Milwaukee's a mess, Like if your Doc Rivers, you gave up broadcasting the NBA great gig, you go back to Milwaukee, or you go to Milwaukee and they haven't been good? Yes, don can I get a too over on that?

I I should have stayed broadcasting.

All right, thank you, Doc. The Dame Lillard Yannis experiment has not been good, yes, Marvin.

And if I'm Adrian Griffin, I'm like, good good. They would number one seed when you guys fired.

Me, I know, yeah, he's the answer to the trivia question who got fired? So they could bring in Doc Rivers. But I'm watching the Bucks. Feels like, I know it sounds preposterous that you go, man, maybe they would trade Joannis Luel Sindor got traded from the Milwaukee Bucks to the Lakers, and I'm sure if they said list of teams, you know, you'd have to put the Lakers on there, whether they could get him or not, I'd go, hey, we'll give you Anthony Davis for Yannis. Would the Bucks do something like that? I mean, Anthony Davis played really well last year. Now, I always thought that he was Yannis before Yannis, although in a better shooter. It just ad didn't. He couldn't stay healthy. Never really, I don't know when he's out on the floor. I want to see greatness every single night, and there are times when it felt like he disappeared. But I thought he had all the attributes to be Yannest before Yannis.

Yes, Pauline, I got that update on that Celtics game versus Golden State. Jalen Brown left hip flexer string is out.

Oh game more shots for Jason Tatum.

Okay, I have the over under for Jason Tatum as of this morning.

I'm gonna go twenty eight and a half.

It's thirty and a half as of right now.

Wait, you didn't everybody didn't get to go right in the room, it's twenty nine. Todd thirty and a half, correct, got it it?

Yeah?

Who's bet over.

Marvin? I know says he's going to put forty eight.

He's shooting the ball fifty seven times tonight.

In the first half. Now, how many threes? Who takes more threes tonight? The Celtics of the war. I'm gonna say the Celtics. That's all they do. They'll put up fifty five threes tonight.

Yes, Todd, If Tatum hit some kind of big shot, does he look over and give a little wink? Is there anything playful or not so playful towards Steve Kerr during the course of the game.

I don't.

I've known Steve Kerr for thirty years. I couldn't imagine that he would be doing something to spite Jason Tatum. I just think I would rather have Kevin Durant out there in the Olympics. Okay, in the Olympics. Give me Kevin Durant before anybody else. And then you want to put in staph and you want to put in Lebron. Those are the guys I want out there. And you know, Jason Tatum, you can take it personally, but you shouldn't because Kevin Durant is the guy that he's the most decorated player that we have international basketball, and you saw when they needed hoops, you got the Those three guys were going to get hoops there. I would have no qualms about that. Make no apologies whatsoever. Jalen Brown was just another forward. We've gone through this. I mean, that's why Drew Holliday Derek White got added. You needed guys who were going to play both ends and would be you know, guys who didn't need touches or shots, and they won the gold. If they don't win the gold, now you have a discussion. Are the Celtic fans going to be raining down on Steve Kerr? They will be and he knows it. Yes, Marvin, But.

Don't you think that was bruising to Jason Tatum's ego? Like, wait, my team just won the NBA title and I'm sitting in the bench. It was Tyrese Halliburn and me.

Okay, I have no problem with not playing Jason Tatum.

Oh, I wouldn't play him over Lebron and Kevin Durant either, Yes' like the eight game sample size? No, no, no, no, that's all right?

Now?

Could I have gotten him in the game a little bit more. Yes, yes, but this is why I argued, don't put Caitlin Clark on the Olympic team unless you're going to play her. And at the time when they picked the team, I didn't think she had done enough. Now by the end of the year, I certainly did, but we were taking it in the moment and if you put her on the roster, everybody is going to be saying, why aren't you playing Caitlin Clark? No matter what the outcome is. You could be winning and you're still going to have people say, when's Caitlin Clark going to play. It's a no win situation. And I understand that now she'll be on subsequent Olympic teams. She'll be on the one in Los Angeles, and hopefully Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown get on the same Olympic team at some point. But yeah, I think it'll be fun tonight. I'll certainly be watching that game. Let me get a couple of phone calls in here. How about Dana in Michigan, Hey, Dana, what's on your mind?

Hey?

Good morning Dan, how you doing Dane's great?

Hey?

Come and on the caller couple back on the greatest waste of talent. The Chicago Bears drafted Dick Buckets and Gail Stays back to back in the first round. They never made the playoffs. That's the greatest wasted talent.

Well, both went into the Hall of Fame. They played for one of the greatest coaches of all time. He just had the Green Bay Packers that they were better, but yeah, having Gaiale Stairs and Dick Buckers, but they didn't have Stairs for a long time. Buckers played a long time. Jeff in North Dakota, Hi, Jeff, what's on your mind?

Hey?

Dan?

First time five six? There we go. Hey, I just want to ask I want to get your head around this. I want to hear what you have to say about this question. When RG three and you were having your conversation and you were what quarterback would you start with? And you went down and then he said, well, Tom six rings, I just got to ask you. Rings is a team sport. I've never seen Tom Brady intercept the pass and go back for a touchdown to win a game, So shouldn't we really go off the greatest as being their personal stats? Really does rings really matter? Because it's a team sport to saying that person's the greatest because they have so many of them.

It only happens at the quarterbacking position. We don't do this in any other sport. We don't do that in baseball. You don't ever say a running back how many rings does he have? It's that position because they handle the ball on every play and the importance of that, the salaries that are attached to that. And we've seen quarterbacks winning games game on the line. You certainly feel better if you've got Montana or Brady or Patrick Mahomes. Yeahedon and you can't.

Really remove the idea that it's a team sport, so rings shouldn't matter for a quarterback, and then just look at their personal stats because like passing yards are dependent on another player, it's a team, it's two people, so the team element it's constantly there.

And it might not be fair that we judge quarterbacks and their greatness. You know, we've talked about quarterbacks in the past winning Super Bowls. You know Bob Greasy, was he a great quarterback? No, but he was a game manager. If you're winning super Bowls, you get credit. You get more credit when you're winning Super Bowl. If you lose the Super Bowl like they you know Elway did I mean they? They roughed him up. Jim Kelly, you got to super Bowls, but you didn't win. So the pressure is on them. That is the not the coach we don't talk about. You know, when the Falcons you know, collapsed, Who do we talk about? Not the head coach? That was Dan Quinn, Kyle Shanahan, Matt Ryan lost that Super Bowl. Wait what happened to the head coach there? He wouldn't calling the plays. Okay, it might not be fair. Is Tom Brady the greatest player in NFL history? No, he has the best resume in NFL history. Reggie White might be the greatest player who ever played. In my opinion, Tom Brady has the best resume in NFL history.

Uh.

Cat in Orange County? Hey Cat, Hi, DP? Hey how are you spectacular?

Great?

So DP? I was calling all Monday morning. I'm a longtime listener, first time caller, not that I haven't tried. I was calling on Monday morning to shout out all our eighteen wins. Number one, of course, was the World Series Dodgers. Then the wins for the Alley Charges and Rams, and also, DP, I wanted to just let you know my husband and I are missing one of our best studies who is having an anniversary next week. He passed away five years ago from pross strate cancer and he DP was your number one fan, Karen, Orange County in Lahabre, Orange County. His name was Jess and we miss.

Him big well.

Thank you for sharing that. Thank you, Kat, I appreciate that. Eric and Tucson, Hi, Eric, what's on your mind today?

Borning?

Dan five eleven one eight one. Hey, this is a little bit of a different take on the Aaron Rodgers Peyton Manning discussion that you had. And I'm just really calling and I'm not a huge Peyton man anything, but I just don't think you can take that second super Bowl away from him. He was a quarterback the team that won. And I guess I would I would offer go through the list of starting quarterbacks during that season, and at what point would you not substitute another one of those quarterbacks for Peyton Manning. I think he gets full credit. He takes credit if he wins, and he takes credits if he loses. So he won two super Bowls as a quarterback.

Oh yeah, I'm trying to put it in context that he won one when he was Peyton Manning MVP that year he was not. That defense was awesome, That's why they won that Super Bowl. But yeah, was he officially the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos. He was. But do I put that up there with the other Super Bowl that he did win against the Bears. Sure, if you want to, Yeah, Pauline.

Peyton Manning that year twenty fifteen was seven and two as a starter. His stats that your were nine touchdowns and seventeen picks. That's how good the defense was. Yes, and it's not a sleight of hand.

I don't think Peyton takes great pride in that. If you said, hey, let's talk about your Super bowls, I'm going to guess he's going to spend a little more time when they beat the Bears than he is that one or when they lost to the Saints. But I'm not here to rip Peyton Manning. I'm just adding I just give you perspective on him. Now. We can knock on Rogers all you want. I don't care or Peyton. I don't care because I don't have any loyalty to them. Or there's no fandom there, great guests, great players, but my job is not to go you know what, I don't think I'm going to criticize Peyton because he's a great guest. I'm just giving you what the opinions based in fact, firsthand knowledge, being at these games, interviewing these people. That's let me take a break when we come back. You didn't ask for it, Hope, but you got it. The oktob VP and we play the game that's sweeping the countryside. It's called in or out. You're either in or out, Todd.

You understand the rules, yes, and you can only answer with in or out. You don't need to elaborate any further.

Man?

You have very the lead. Yesterday in flipping around, I switched on the Worldwide Leader and I saw the sports reporters. Now, some of your staff may not be old enough to remember the original sports supporters with Dick Shaft and journalists like Mitch Album and Mike Lupka and Tony. But yesterday in the first box, the first one to be called on was you. Yep, congratulations you made it back to the Worldwide Leader on your term.

Yeah, thank you.

JJ.

I was on Jeremy Shapp who's a friend who hosts the show. He said, hey, would you come on with a Chefty and Bill Rodin and who else was on with it? Tracy Wolfson was there and we did the sports reporters where they threw out topics and then we got to opine on these pretty much all the topics we talk about here. But yeah, I was back on the Mothership for just a cameo, and by thanks, I say that in parentheses with Jeremy shapp for reaching out to me to let me come on the Mothership. Are we coming up on the fiftieth anniversary of ESPN or is it the forty fifth? Was it seventy nine?

I think it's forty fifth for ESPN, fiftieth for Saturday Night Live?

Oh okay, I think okay, I'm seeing such Yeah, seventy nine for ESPN.

Okay, did I miss the forty fifth anniversary? I was there for the fortieth.

Did they have one?

Yeah?

That would have been September. Yeah, this is September seventh. Yeah, maybe I didn't get in. Maybe if I live along enough be around for the fiftieth. Yes, Tony, Well, we had.

Chris Berman on to celebrate him being there forty five years, but I don't know there was no invite to like, hey, bring the gang to the big forty fifth birthday party anniversary.

Yeah, I know said we didn't have Boomer on. Yeah, but we didn't get invited anything. That was the point. I was trying to make time. Uh Brian and Milwaukee.

Hi Brian, guys, good morning. What an honor finally get through to talk to you guys. Thank you for starting my day off. You guys are like my buddies, sitting on a bar talking sports, pop culture, ripping on each other. It's great. So I do have an in and in or.

Out for you guys.

This good.

This goes back to your you know, needing a Sports Emmy and I've been trying to call since you talk with Johnny Bench. That might have been the greatest interview ever. You have to put that on your Emmy reel. It was still real, the way you ask questions, the emotions. The question is would you guys, you guys have been together for so long, would you give up seeing or talking to each other ever again to get the elusive sports Emmy.

Wait, well, we stop to do the show for three more years.

We'll say they give it to you at the last.

But oh yeah, yeah, I don't think everybody's going to stay in touch with each other. So the idea is.

We get to win an Emmy and then when the show is over, we never talked to each other.

Ever.

Again, that's likely to happen.

Even if we don't win sports. Even if we don't win sports. My wife goes, who do you think you're going to stay in touch with? And I go, what do you mean? She goes from the staff.

I go, I don't think anybody, Tyler. They're still going to be coming over to pick up the dog and stuff. So yeah, it might have him.

I'll hire him to, uh, you know, grill some things on the trigger, you know, the big german. I'll stay in touch with the big german. Yeah, probably so very handy like that. Yes he is. He's a good guy. All right. Uh, it's time to play in or out. Thank you for the music, and here's your host for in or out only.

I will give a statement and go around the room and you say you're in on this statement, which means you back it. You're in or you're out, which means you're out out. Okay, it's just that simple. You could play at home like that last goal. Okay, the Commanders and Steelers will make the playoffs.

Todd in the Seaton in Marvin and I'm going to in it.

Wow. Yeah, four for for any Yeah, Okay, Well, college football. The nine to zero Miami Hurricanes are back as a college football friend.

Hmm, ton out seating out Marvin out out.

So it's a one year boost from the quarterback.

So we had four innies and four ounties of a bubble. Dang see, we need no never mind continue.

The team I'd least like to be traded to is the Cleveland Browns.

And.

Yeah, I don't want to go to Cleveland Marvin out out. So what teams would you not want to be traded to?

Carolina Panthers too.

Okay, it feels like you get some playing time they need help.

But it's still the Panthers though. Charlotte's super nice?

Can I say the Wizards? Can I say the Washington was? Okay?

Yeah?

Okay? What else do we have any more? In or out?

Never out of INDs? Okay, Joel Embiid, this one think about for a second. Okay, Joel Embiid is doing the best he can and we should cut him some sleck.

I'm in on that because I think he's had so many injuries. I don't know if he doesn't want to play, because he's always come back from all of these in just start with the back injury. They didn't even know if he was going to be any kind of NBA player, And that was two years of going through and anybody who's had back pain, back surgery knows coming back from that as an athlete. You know, I'm gonna give him respect. I understand. Look, I thought the columnist was wrong in making it personal with Joell Ebiid. It doesn't let him off the hook where you're pushing a reporter. You can't do that. So I would say, I'm gonna give Joellenbiid the benefit of the doubt. Here, Todd, what about you in give him the benefit of the Okay, Seaton.

I'm in on giving him the benefit of that.

That didn't sounds in.

Ish.

It's like a fifty Yeah, Marvin, are you Inish or outish?

Oh?

No, I'm in in. Oh he's not Ben Simmons.

No.

I know when Joelle ebi plays, he plays. Yeah, he just has to play.

Yeah, he's great.

A couple more. The NBA as a league is having a bad season already.

I'm in on that. I'm in don in Seaton in Yeah.

It's the first week of November.

Yeah, but there's no buzz there. There's no story there, Like what load management?

Again?

What else are we focusing on with the NBA? Not much? Yeah, that's really why the NFL is so great.

One.

It has like so few games, so you have to watch them all, but it tells the story better than any other league, you know. And that's what something like the NBA is missing. They need a story to tell, and right now there isn't a great one. There isn't like really compelling story to tell there.

Yes, Tom, And if we have to talk about Dwayne Wade's statue, are should Brownie be able to play with his dad?

What was that contrived thing? That is far from juicy stuff?

Yeah, we're not really getting topics on the floor now. Maybe we're not going out of our way to have some topics. You know, I said before, I think the Nuggets are in trouble. I don't. I think their window of opportunity closed. They didn't add necessarily what they should have with Joker there. The Buck situation is a mess. Celtics I think are great, Like Golden State, Houston's a sneaky team to me, Oklahoma City's gonna be a lot of fun, you know. So there's there's storylines there but you know, not necessarily. Wow, I can't wait to watch that game or that player. All right, PAULA continue two more.

If I were the president of the United States, I would take advantage of the fact that I could call down to the kitchen and ask for whatever I want to eat at one forty five in the morning, because I can't Hence, like if I was at one forty five in the morning, I was up and I'm the president, I'm calling down and asking for like beer and barbecue.

Wait, is this a trick question?

Would you do this?

Oh?

Yes, you wouldn't be Like this is like Paul's favorite topic.

It's like, what at one o'clock in the morning, you just want caro cake? They just have carrot cake. You just get it. No, if I'm the vice president, I do that. Oh can you do that? Yes you can. You can say, hey, hey, Tommy, I'm ordering for the president. Can I get some? And then you actually order for yourself.

And nobody would have guilt if there's a guy girl down there.

No, No, okay, Hank, No, yes, Marvin.

And when you become president and I'm secret Service, I'm going to say the president really has a hankering for red velvet cake and I'm just gonna eat it.

Ooh it seems like a violation.

Yeah.

Last one. There's a new show coming out called Landman Landman.

Uh.

It's on Paramount Plus. It's with Billy, Bob Thornton, to Me Moore and John Hamm It's by the guy Taylor Sheridan who created Yellowstone. Okay, based off that description, it's about oil barons in Texas. Are you in or you out on this series?

I'm gonna give a in ish on it. I don't like the title land Man like you can't go Lambin right, you got to go land Men. You need hype, mad Men, Madmen. Yeah, I'm in. I'm I'm gonna give it an ini ish. Yes, Todd, I think you nailed it Inish.

I'll take a peek at it, but I'm not going to rive it.

Marvin in is okay, seton in a shank and none Watch all right? October VP?

Who is your MVP for the month of October otherwise known as octob VP Paul?

Since I didn't enter out it, I'm very ready to go. I'm gonna go Jared Goff. I have him with nine touchdowns, no picks and he threw. His percentage was eighty one percent for the month.

It's the greatest six game run percentage wise, completion wise in NFL history. Todd Octob VP.

I was gonna go with a quarterback, but I thought that was too easy. So I'm going with Sakwan Barkley and what he means to the Eagles, and that's the franchise.

Right now, all right, see no O'Connor.

I mean not to sound like I'm mailing it in, but I think it's Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson is the mid the Oktob VP, Tob VP, Marvin Octob VP.

Derrick Henry. He's got a thousand yards already, eleven touchdowns. He's been great.

He's on pace for two grand I think I saw the numbers side by side with h I think when Peterson rushed for two thousand and then I think whatever through nine games, So I think he's a little bit ahead of him. I would say Jared Goff. I can't be raving about Jared Goff and then not giving the October VP with what he's accomplished. He'll be on display Sunday night, and that'll be against C. J. Stroud and the Texans.

Yes, Paul, so based off that Jared Goff wins for our show, he got two votes? Can we send him a certificate? He seems like a guy who would like that, a nice eight by eleven certificate.

Maybe framed, Maybe he shouldn't because Derek Carr was our Septem VP and it didn't work out.

Oh wait, are you sure he was our September He.

May have been mid September VP mid he had two hour Do you mean that we collectively decided that?

Yeah, I don't remember that checking. I think it was he on the two week VPG. He was great for two weeks months MVP.

Yes, really, after two weeks we were like greatest show on Turf Part two.

Oh, I got just what I thought.

These segments couldn't get more common of the mid months of MVP.

H Yeah, yeah, of course. Uh Stephen in Portland, Hi, Steven, what's on your mind today?

Hey? I just wanted to bring up a historically relevant to political candidate that I thought you might be interested in by the name of these nets. Okay, back in twenty sixteen, this kid from all fifteen year old kid from Iowa files legally to run of the candidate named these nets and he pulled it like eight and nine percent in multiple states. He barely beat at Harambe but he had two percent, but it was a whole big thing.

Yeah, I remember that, Yes, thank you Steven, that he found a loophole and he ran on the name D Yes, Paul.

There's a great video that was going around yesterday. It was like this guy in North Carolina, this serious, older gentleman who was reporting the local news. He goes and Joseph Biden has forty seven percent and they're writing Kennedy d's nuts. Is that nine back to you enough studio?

Very high number. Yeah. I'm Nick Saban and I endorsed this candidate, d's nuts. Kevin in Oregon, Hi, Kevin, what's on your mind today?

Dan?

What's up?

Dude?

Six?

So I've had a question that I've been thinking about since you guys were always talking about this retirement. Dan, I was wondering, have you thought about Ross Tucker taking over for you and then having the boys stay intact and then you come in for a weekly spot. I think that had pretty cool And then also pull question best all time chilling hosts all listen.

On the air.

Thank you well. I can't judge best fill in host because I wasn't here. I'm not even thinking about if somebody comes in, sits in the chair, has the same man cave and works with the danis. We haven't even discussed this, and I don't know what they want to do in three years. You know, if you're fritzy and you don't have any other opportunities that you're gonna want.

To that's nice.

Is anybody retiring when I retire? Okay? And if so, how are you Howard?

Exactly are you pulling that off?

Yes, Paul, I would say I'm retiring from this this type of you.

Wouldn't do Monday through Friday. After I'm done.

Man, I'd say it's a coin flip right now. If you're asking you just did ask me right now?

I did I ask right If.

You're asking me right now what you do, I would say unlikely to mm, probably you asked it's true.

Well, it's unlikely. Probably, I mean, you don't you're not really definitive.

Defin You're just saying unlikely. And it you know, like other side work, you know that you could do without doing them money through Friday.

That's That's all we ask Monday through Friday, Marvin, would you do it with a guest host.

Like if Ross Tucker came in? Yeah? I like Ross, right seating?

Uh, I mean yeah, I love Ross. I would think about doing that. Yeah, I don't know that I want to do this Monday through Friday after this. Yeah, it's kind of like feeling like start back at the bottom of the mountain, start climbing it again. I don't know that I really want to do that, but I would be open to it. Yeah, I definitely am working after this. So it's more of the schedule. It's not who would be the guest, has nothing to do with the guest host. It's more even just like the whole like process of doing this, Todd, I.

Love Ross, So I would definitely consider that as an option. I want to continue in sports broadcasting and the entertainment field. I don't know exactly what that's going to be in three years, but that would be one thing.

To keep in mind. You have a couple other irons in the fire.

I have not pursued anything, but as we get closer, you know, I'm sure we'll all have to kind of figure out we're not in a position financially our age wise to say, Okay, I'm going to sit on the couch now.

Yeah, I agree, but hey, if you get somebody in here, I'll watch occasionally.

That's one.

Yeah, but don't ask me to come on. I'm just going to watch. That'll be it band all, you know. Try to call in and see if I can talk to Tyler.

Yes, mar has anyone asked you about this space?

Yes? Yes, yeah, big dogs. Uh. I've said this before, one surprise one where I was like, oh, okay, I didn't know that you would you would want to leave what you're doing to do this let's play guests. Now, we're not going to do that. You're not going to do that, I guess the right now.

That's why Costas isn't doing the play by play baseball.

Okay, did say he was retiring from doing play by play. He didn't say retiring Bob and the bob Ds. There is no way Costas could put up with this, There's no way. This too much work man, every day Monday through Friday. No, he wouldn't want to do that. He's got a great life, you know, lives in Newport Beach, lives in Manhattan. You get to just be Bob costas every day. He can't come in here, can't dumb it down. He can't. He can't, although I would want. It feels like he wants to.

Though, I kind of feels like Bob wants to come in here and dumb it down a little bit.

I think he would like to get squirrely a little bit he would do is open the mic and like rip a fart live. I don't know, Bob, how about we take a break. We're back after this Dan Patrick Show.

Be sure to catch the I Have edition of The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Last call for phone calls, what we learn, what's in store tomorrow, try to accomplish all of those things. Rick and Sioux City. Hey Rick, what's on your mind today?

Hello Dan, Thanks for taking my call?

Sure?

Rick?

Yeah, Dan, You've been talking about the game manager quarterbacks and the suber talented quarterbacks, and I can think of three game manager quarterbacks from Davis day. There are days gone by that maybe don't get enough credit, and their organizations have have one with both game managers as well as the uber talented. Two of the three that I'm gonna mention have done that Green Bay, Kansas City. You know they won with Bart Starr and Lynn Dawson, and of course they've now they've had youber talented with Patrick Mahomes and from Brett Barr to Aaron Rodgers.

So what's the what's the point?

I want general opinion on what would you rather start your organization with the uh the game managers aforementioned, like I said, or the bober talented.

Well, I would take the over talented because Tom Brady, greatest quarterback of all time, was a game manager. It's it's not a sign of disrespect. I want somebody who There's a lot of talented quarterbacks, but you know, it's like baseball pitchers. You've got somebody who is a thrower and somebody who's a pitcher. I want somebody who's a game manager. And there's no shame in being called a game manager in my in my vernacular, I said, is a game manager. Mahomes is a game manager. He understands, you know that the situation's in a game, what to do not to do? And to me, that's what I want my quarterback that he doesn't do. You know, crazy things go willy nilly I don't want Jameis Winston's got a ton of talent. I don't think he manages a game.

Yeah, seen, I feel like, uh, like Patrick Mahomes is a little more willy nilly, go nuts kind of guy thing than a game manager.

It just happens to work for him, but he picks what he does. He's not like that the whole game. Yeah, he has these moments where he does something spectacular.

I think we need to define what game manager actually is. Maybe that'll be tomorrow's show.

It would be if you said Greg Maddox was an NFL quarterback that would be a game manager.

Yeah, because I get that. Yeah, I definitely can't put Patrick Mahomes in that. Then why because he's not He's not boring. You Like, Greg Maddox wasn't like he wasn't hitting a hundred. You know, we're like, oh my god, did you see the bottom fell out of that curve ball or whatever. He was just kind of like a guy who knew how to place pitches, which is kind of really boring while also being effective.

Yeah, he won three hundred and fifty games.

I'm not doubting his success of just saying he wasn't like well, I didn't say he wasn't the Patrick Mahomes of Yes.

That does that have to be a ceiling to your talent level in order to be considered a game manager?

No? Okay, once again Tom Brady managed a game. He did, he didn't do anything spectacular. I think he'd be insold, he would be well he made. He might already be upset with me critiquing his broadcasting skills. Yes, Todd and.

Then his Michigan self will be angry and his patriots saw.

Yeah, I think we can do away with those commercials.

Now, we have to have a way of separating Trent Dilfer from Tom Brady.

There has to be away. They can't both be in that same game management. Say that Trent Dilfer was a game manager, I'm saying he's not.

He's not.

He was a game of tender.

He was there at the game. Yes, this day and this day in sports history.

Man, is that a slight?

I know?

Eighteen sixty one, the inventor of basketball, James Naismith.

Overrated Wow too soon.

Eighteen sixty nine, the first college football game was played where Fritzy Rutgers New Brunswick, New Jersey him Oh. Nineteen seventy four, This is big. Mike Marshall became the first relief pitcher for the Dodgers to win the Cy Young Award. A lot of people said that changed the direction of pitching nineteen eighty two the US.

But here's something. Mike pitched over two hundred innings, two hundred innings that year of relief, so just give him you a He had one hundred and six appearances when he won the Saia Okay.

Armschmarm nineteen eighty two, the US Supreme Court ruled that the NFL could not dictate the hometown of a team, opening the door for the Raiders to move to Los Angeles.

Let's go around the room. If we learned anything on this program, Todd, would you learn today?

RG three says the Cowboys were the biggest losers of the trade deadline and loves the Commanders getting marsha on Latimore.

Yeah, I wouldn't have done anything unless you're trading something away now. The Cowboys whatever, Yeah, they weren't your quarterbacks out for a month? Seatan what did you learn?
