Final Hour on this Wednesday, Dan and the Danette dan Patrick Show down a Danette Seaton's out today, Fritzi dual responsibility in the back row, the Minister of Humor, Marvin of course, wearing his white Sox hat. Paully wearing a shirt with the smallest Chicago Bear low like you're embarrassed to be a Chicago Bear fan.
It's the size of a stamp, but it's a.
I can't even make it out and I'm probably twenty feet away from you, Bear Rare. It's like it's like I think it's me owing. Yes, Marvin, I think.
There's a question mark next to the logout who do you like the Bears?
They're too and two?
Yeah, all right, Final hour here. The Great Peter King won't join us, said the man K. We'll find out what he's been up to. Todd, you're doing the honors with the pole question. Where do we stand with the hour two pole question? We head into hour three?
The result of the hour two pole question, which wild card team down OH one is most done? Braves fifty per Brewers twenty one percent, Astros fifteen percent, and Oriels thirteen percent.
Have you been eating something?
I have a little bit of a nut in my tooth from a granola bar.
That I was no The answers, Yes, it was a couple of minutes ago.
But I thought I got it cleared out of my tooth.
Okay, do you want to take time to get it out of your tooth?
I think I'm good.
Maybe you could have taken turn off your microphone while you did that.
I was trying to prove to you that I'm clearing the no.
No, I could take your words so I can see you right here.
Yeah, I thought I was safe eating it like two minutes before we came on here. But the little something nu giddy, I guess got stuck.
In the new gy nu gidy. Yes, I'd like to give you some new gies. Yes, Paul, very quick.
Etiquete question before you move on with the show, how well you do you have to know someone as an adult to tell them to stop eating with their mouth open. Let's say you're out at like a couple's dinner.
Oh, I say it to Todd all the time.
Well, we have a relationship over here that can take if.
I let's say Peter King was eating with us after the show, and he was eating with his mouth open. Would I tell Peter King No, No, we know Peter very well. Yeah, but I still wouldn't say Peter, shut your mouth while you eat. I mean I would, or hey, Pete, you're speaking with your mouth open, or you're chewing with Now I do say this to Todd.
Oh here we go.
We were at a really nice restaurant and Fritzy is flying through this lobster bisk, just flying through it.
It was so wonderful it was.
And I said, how how's the lobster soup? Todd goes, Oh, it's great, And I said it sounds great. And it didn't register with me that you just dissed me.
In the moment, I was so caught up in the crackers in the lobster bisk. But then I realized, wait a second, he just took a shot.
You know, when your puppy is drinking water from the toilet, you know, and you can hear it is that bad? Yes it is, Yes, it is. It is bad. It is bad, but it hasn't stopped you, and not you continue.
To do it.
I'm my own man, I still do my thing.
Yeah, And I ordered some pizza for today. Ordered some Peppi's pizza. No, he's great, Yeah, And I ordered it for Peter. He brought some friends and we're gonna have a little pizza party, just Peter and his friends and me. Oh but I wanted to let you know if you smell the pizza and you go, oh that that smells like Peppi's Pizza, one of the great pizza places in America, a top ten pizza joint.
Alrighty, I was gonna give that to you.
Okay, Which top MLB playoff seed? The ones that have the buys do you have the least faith in? That would be an alphabetical order. The Dodgers, the Guardians, the Phillies, the Yankees. Who do you have the least faith in?
Dan?
I would say the Guardians just because of the name. I'm sorry, they could win the World Series. I still have a problem with Guardians. I do.
It sounds like an XFL team?
No, it sounds like like a street group that protects you. Yeah, oh yeah, like the Angels. Yes, yes, that's that's what it feels like. What was his name, Curtis?
If you get caught in a questionable neighborhood, the guardians will be there.
Yes, I just call the guys with the red berets on and they're going to come out and protect me when I'm in Bronxville. No need to worry here. I'm good.
You think they wore the berets because when the criminals saw them coming, like, I'm never getting my ass kicked by a guy in a beret.
Maybe, well maybe you you would think that they are harmless, right, Yeah, they're wearing berets. Not even a raspberry beret, but close to it. It's like a red beret. Stat of the Day brought to you by Panadi America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. We've touched on a variety of things. The Tigers, my Tigers over the Astros, Royals over the Oriols, and I don't want to hear you complain about Hey, I didn't know it's a best of three. It is a best of three. So if you're an Astros fan, you can't be like, oh, best of three, that's not fair. The Mets over the Brewers, Padres over the Braves, no Chris Sale in that postseason matchup. DeVante Adams prefers to trade prefers, not demanding prefers, and we have talked about the possible landing spots. It really feels like if you're the Jets, like, let's go right now, getting can he get in uniform to take him overseas to London? And you're coming off a home loss where you don't score a touchdown. You know the team that could really use him. Now there's other teams that could use him. The Pittsburgh Steelers, you got a quarterbacking situation. You really don't have any offensive webs that have stood out so far. But I mean, he got Pickens. But whether it be nice if you had a true go to guy, Pittsburgh could really use him. Baltimore that'd be a you know, a nice luxury there, the Niners, great luxury there, Detroit a great luxury item. We'll talk to Peter King about that coming up. So we have our final hour poll questions, some phone calls here as well. Phil and Iowa. Hi Phil, what's on your mind today?
Five? Two quick things? One shout out to Penny and her dog biscuits. My dog off is a huge band. Second thing, the Milwaukee Brewers logo. You guys are talking about logos earlier. If you look at it, PAULI bring it up. There's an M and a bit inside the glove. Yea. I've been watching base of for like thirty years. To take a like last year, Yeah, you got how to go with I don't.
Was Phill in the shower.
For those who couldn't hear it, he was saying, the Milwaukee Brewers hat. It looks like a baseball with a ball in it. I mean when you first see it, but then if you really take a look, it's m B clearly okay, but it's an illusion.
It doesn't mean I like it anymore. It's okay. I'm sorry.
Yes to the call is brought to you by Irish Spring, which is nice.
From the shower, Thank you to Alex in Utah. Hi Alex, what's on your mind today?
Hey?
How's it going?
Dan?
I called it a couple of weeks ago, suggesting to get James and Virginia on the Zoom call, and I got to say that that did not disappoint that dude. His I mean, he his attitude is so infectious, Like the only thing I can think of is just like that guy attacks the day with an enthusiasm, enthusiasm unknown to mankind.
So like yeah, and then so yeah, goodest to him.
And then just real quick, I, you know, just looking at the stats from Sunday and Monday, I'm just scratching my head because I'm seeing Baker's stats. I'm seeing Sam Darnold, Joe Flacco and looking how much they're getting paid, and then too and Dak and Aaron Rodgers and like all these fifty million plus quarterbacks, and I'm like, I just what what do I what do I not know that owners know that it makes sense for them to be just paying the outrageous amounts to quarterbacks, like it's.
The going rate, though, Alex, that's just next guy up. I mean rock Perty is going to get sixty million dollars or they move on. There, you know, the market. They've failed to create an in between, although Baker Mayfield signed an in between deal, which I thought was beneficial to both there. But for the most part, it's either you love your quarterback or you're moving on. And if you love him, you gotta pay him. And look at all these guys who got extended in the off season. Look at how their teams have started. Not good?
Yeah, PAULI yeah, if you look at the rookie contracts for quarterbacks, but that third or fourth year you make a decision the fifth year option or not. But either way it's either full boat or not. The only way you get that mid level contract is that a guy kind of bounces around, like a Ryan Tannehill or a Baker Mayfield. Here they're on stop three. Like Mitch Trubisky right now. He had a contract offer from the Bears a few years ago. Yep, but it was mid level, and I bet his agent, you know, could, would want to go back and get that.
Well, we said at the time, sign it, sign it, know your place. But your agent's going to say, no, No, you're fifty million. No you're not, No, you're not. It's Big ten Saturday Night. It's Michigan and Washington. That'll be Saturday on NBC in Peacock, here comes Saturday Night, presented by Discover, Dave and San Antonio. Hi, Dave, what's on your mind today? Hey guys?
How you guys doing so?
Dan?
I know you said that you're going to become a thesbian. Now I have a movie idea for you, and I wanted to pitch it and see if you'd want to be a part of it.
Okay, awesome.
So the idea is the world is in chaos, COVID has hit, and sports and entertainment has gone away, and we've shifted now to education, and now we're trying to draft the best kids out of multiple different states to be over that state, to be that the head teacher. Teachers are getting paid millions of dollars, and and there's a draft for these teachers, and now the whole world has shifted.
What do you think, I'm going to politely decline, I don't think it's in my wheelhouse. I'm kind of limited. My range is limited with my acting abilities. But I see that we're going to have teachers in the place instead of athletes there getting the million dollars, which that's great. But I don't do apocalyptic type movies. I don't even watch those. What's the Brad Pitt World war Z? Oh my daughters watch it. It feels like once every couple of weeks they love that movie, and then they love talking about zombies in the apocalypse. I'm like that, No, I don't need to watch that. So I don't want to be part of a futuristic type thing. I don't see like Dune. I didn't watch any of those movies. Avatar didn't watch anything. I don't I have no interest in any of the Star Trek, Star Wars, no interest.
Yes, in all of those world is ending movies. There's a one with Tom Cruise, there's one with Brad Pitt. They're always running as if the world's not going to end eight miles up the street, you know, like we're in a hawk in New Jersey. We got to get out of here. Let's go upstate, as if the world's not going to end in Albany.
Tom Cruise runs in every movie. Yes. Is there a movie that Tom Cruise does not run in? Yes, Born on the fourth of July. Oh too soon.
Actually he is running when he's a soldier. Oh okay, second half not so much.
Yeah, all the right moves, of course, he's running. Yeah, he hit the ground, running the firm, a lot of running. He's running.
Does he run in Jeram Maguire, Yes, he's running down He's running down the street after he prints the the mission statement. Early in the movie, he's at Kinko's and he's running back down.
The street risky business. Yes, he run.
He's running to get his car.
He has to run the before it falls in the water YEP.
Okay, Collateral, he runs, Okay, good movie, by the way, No it's not lateral, Jimmy Fox, Colateral is so good.
No, Collateral so good, really good. No, it's not. What else what other Tom Cruise.
Stay on this for he runs in every mission.
Tom Cruising Collateral has white hair. It's awesome. It's silly.
I almost didn't recognize you, Like, hey, there's some other guy. Wow, that guy looks like Tom Cruise, Tom Crews movies. They actually put a pedometer on some guy who looked at the movies. He runs the most in the mission Impossible Movies, Minority Report, the Firm, Jack Reacher a lot of running.
I don't like him and Jack Reacher because the show Jack Reacher with that other guy that who looks like he's he looks like a badass. I mean he's uh like Steve Enttman who played at Washington drafted by the Cold tex That's who he looks like. That guy is awesome. That Tom Cruise is Jack Reacher. No, not buying it. Yes, Mark is Tom Cruise running in a few Good Men.
No, he's hitting baseballs or softballs. But I don't think he ever runs in that movie checking.
He might have run to to me more obviously. Yeah.
Oh and Days of Thunder he chases Robert Duvall when he's mad at him. It's a brief runting scene.
But yeah, I don't I don't know if he runs in a few good Men. Mm hmm.
If I'll tell you, if the Me and More were there.
I would run to I would run to me. I would in the eighties and nineties, Yeah, I'd sprint right, Yeah, I would be like Derrick Henry. I'd be foarm shivers and whatever it takes more, Yeah, to me more. Back in the eighties, yeah, first ballot, whatever, run Yeah, first ballot. She's in a new movie with is it Margaret Quality? And her mom was in Saint Elmo's Fire. She was the beautiful woman that she was in a cabin Andy McDowell. Yeah, Andy McDowell. So her daughter is in the movie with Demi Moore. Substance, yes, yes, yes, yes, And there is some substance. Yeah. All it looks like a scary movie. And there's nudity in there too. Okay, if you like substance, I mean, I don't know what your substance is, but yes, don I'm.
Reading things that say most graphic film ever, extreme body horror film.
Yeah, wow yeah. Will you watch it?
Absolutely?
Yeah? Thank you? All right, I got a sneak preview.
I don't know if you have connections.
There's a trailer that you can watch. All right, how about we take a break. Peter King is here and we'll get his thoughts. What he's doing now. I don't know if he's semi retired, but Peter King will join us coming up next year on the Dan Patrick Show.

He's Peter King, NFL analyst for Sirius XM, the Let's Go Podcast with Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Max Crosby and Jim Gray, and covered the NFL for more than four decades. Pete, good to see you. As soon as I see Pete, he says, hey, forty five years today, and I go forty five, and he goes, Chris Berman forty.
Furman forty fifth year, forty five year anniversary. I just saw it on social media on the way up here.
Today. Dang. Yeah, forty five years. Forty five years at the Mothership, so.
That must mean nineteen seventy nine.
He was there, yeah, when he started seventy Yeah, him and Bob Lee and tom Mes. Yeah, and I think they had a trailer there was no building. I mean the fact, you know, everybody wanted to work at ESPN when it became cool, but those who were the pioneers who started a place when it wasn't cool. Nobody knew if it would last. They thought it might be a local Connecticut sports channel.
Yeah. Yeah.
But for Bob and Chris and the late Tomys to take a chance with something like that, And that's why I've said, all along, build a statue there of those three, name a building after that. I mean, remember them because people are going to forget them, and I don't want them to because without them, I'm not here. I don't have this job. And I forever indebted that they were doing it when they didn't even know who was watching. So happy anniversary to Chris Burn. All right, what do you miss most? How are you when you watch a football game watching it differently?
I mean I watch it with I watched the Sunday night game the first half of a glass of wine in my hand and having just finished pizza. No, I watch it for total entertainment, now for yus for fun. And I used to watch it like if I had an idea that I was going to write a column about Joe Burrow, I would have the Bengals game on and I would watch every moment of Joe Burrow. And now I just watch the game. I do watch it a little bit differently. I just watch it for fun. I put on red Zone. Scott Hansen is my guru, and for six or seven hours, that's what I do. The difference in my life now, Dan, is that, except for the first week where I watched all of the Sunday night game, I am in bed no later than halftime. And one week I was in bed about quarter nine on Sunday night because I just that was the one thing about my life that I really didn't like. When you're a kid, you can stay up until four o'clock in the morning one day and then so it's a rough next day, but then you're fine the day after. But you do that when you're sixty six sixty seven years old, and your life sucks until Wednesday, and so I just didn't want to do that anymore.
But how much did your brother's health. Yeah, like you start to have mortality, you know, when somebody around you passes way.
I mean all my father and my two brothers were all dead before the age of sixty five. And you know I'm sixty seven now, and I'm not going to be dead anytime. Well, shoot, that's a dumb thing.
So but I don't.
I'm trying to take care of myself and all that stuff. But my whole point is it's harder to do that when you're always tired and when you're beat up, even if you're working out, and I was working out three four days a week, but after a while, it just really starts to get to You.
Give me the team, the story that you would love to do a deep dime this year right now.
I would really love to do Dan Quinn the Commandos Commanders. I really wish they'd just be Washington football team. Yeah, I love it was the greatest thing football team. That would really be fun. I've never met Jayden Daniels, I don't know much about him, but wow, is he impressive. But the other team I would love to be around a lot is Kansas City, because look, if Kansas City somehow finds a way this year, they're the Beatles. You know they're gonna be Mahomes as John Lennon, Andy Reid is a portly Paul McCartney, and you know they are going to be the biggest thing in sports because obviously in the Super Bowl era and not since Green Bay sixty years ago, or there's somebody win three titles in a row, and so that to me, I'm totally fascinated. And you know, Dan, I think we are going to look back on this era of football and we're going to say, Okay, the first twenty years of this century were owned by Brady. The next twenty years we're going to be owned by Mahomes. And one of the biggest reasons is not just talent and all that stuff, but he has the will. And I tell this story last year in Frankfurt, when I was covering the game for NBC. They played Miami and they're playing crappy on offense. And after the game, I interviewed Mahomes on the field for NBC and I said, man, your offense, you won, but your offense is in trouble. And he goes, oh, we're going to straighten it out.
Don't worry.
We're going to be okay. We're going to And afterwards I went into the locker room and I kind of gave him a little fistbums said thank you. You didn't have to do that, and I appreciate you doing it. He said, hey, no problem, he says, Peter, I want to tell you we're going to get this offense straightened out. I guarantee it. I promise you, And he just he has the will that a lot of people don't have, but that Tom Brady did have. Speaking of Brady, you're the newest member of the Let's Go Podcast. You got Brady Belichick, Max Crosby, Jim Gray. How do you get into word edgewise? Well, you know, it's all in different segments. So like I do one segment with Jim Gray on kind of happenings of the league, and you know, the other day we talked a lot about Derrick Henry and then I am part Me and Jim will interview Max Crosby every week and then Belichick does his own thing with Jim, and Brady's not on every week.
He's on.
I don't know how often he'll be on, but he's not on every week because he's got his other life now. But I mean, it's kind of fun just to have fourteen minutes. You know, at NBC you've got you've got a minute forty and now you've got fourteen minutes. That's kind of fun and just to be able to talk.
You know, what do you make of Belichick the media star?
Well, I always knew he'd be good at this for a very simple reason. A long time ago in the eighties, I covered the Giants and Belichick was defensive coordinator and he wasn't Johnny Carson, but he was incredibly insightful and enlightening. And look, he wanted a head coaching jobs, so he was going to be friendly and not friendly, but you know, he was going to cooperate with the writers. And in those days, the writers were everything. And so Belichick was great. And he's got it in him to be clever, to be a little bit funny, and to be really really smart, obviously about football. So I had no doubt he'd be good. If Bill Wan wants to be good at something, he's gonna be good at something. Now we just have to wait. I mean, there's no doubt in my mind or anybody's, I would assume that somebody's gonna give him a shot next year.
But Dan, I would just say.
This about next year with Bill Belichick, I want to see how accepting he is to some new stuff in football, to analytics, to.
Stuff that.
I think he's always sort of viewed himself as the smartest guy in the room, even though he wouldn't say that, but he has viewed himself that way. And I think there's more information than ever and I think he's got to start taking advantage of that information.
Is he gonna be a GM too? Is he gonna have a dual title?
I don't think he should be, because I'm not saying nobody in his right mind would allow Bill to pick all the groceries. But I do think that he's going to have to have a good deal of saying. But look, had he gone to Atlanta, Arthur Blank was not going to newter or fire Terry Fontineau the GM, and so Bill was going to have to accept that. And I think, and quite honestly, then he should accept it. He should look at his weakness over the last six or eight years that he did the Patriots, and he was a week evaluator and collector of talent.
There's no other way to put it. We're talking to Peter King. He's the newest member of the Let's Go Podcast. It's available every Monday at six eastern three Pacific on Serious XM Mad Dog Radio. That's a Channel eighty two. Why is Jerry Jones in the Hall of Fame before Robert Kraft?
Well, first of all, Robert Kraft I firmly believe will get in the Hall of Fame. I think Jerry Jones got in the Hall of Fame for two reasons. Number one, three super Bowls. Number two, the business model. Jerry Jones gets in as a quote contributor end quote. And I don't know anybody who you know if you say a guy has won three Super Bowls. Now, whatever year he got in, it was about ten years ago, eight, ten years ago, whatever it was. But at the time, he had three Super Bowls and he changed the way the NFL did a lot of its business, and he made the league a lot of money, and he made the league different.
So that's why.
Now, if you want to argue that Robert Kraft, I mean, first of all, I think and I'd have to look up the year that Jerry got in. Robert Craft probably had either three or four by the time Jerry got in. And look, I've said this about Craft many times. And now I'm not a voter on the committee anymore. I resigned couple of months ago, but I am going to be a consultant to the committee. And I have said this for a long time that the reason that Robert Kraft will get in. And I'm not one of those that said, well, of course he should be in. I mean, he probably should be in by now, but he's going to get in. And the biggest reason is because in the year two thousand, right as the millennium began, Robert Kraft did something that nobody wanted him to do. He hired Bill Belichick. Everybody thought, oh my god, this anti social loser from Cleveland. You know, got blown out in Cleveland. You know, why would you give him another team?
You know, what are you doing?
And he went against everybody. And of all the things he's done in the NFL, and he's done a lot business wise, collective bargaining wise, and all that stuff, the fact that he went against the grain and hired Belichick because just remember Bill Belichick, Scott Pioli. They're the guys who picked the players in New England very early on. There's no reason to think that Dom Capers and whoever would be on the personnel side. There's no reason to think they would have picked Tom Brady with the one hundred and ninety ninth pick in that year in their first draft. I mean, it's almost if it's almost chancy anyway, But the fact is he brings in somebody who's got the presence of mind somehow someway to pick Tom Brady and they live happily ever after for two decades and win six Super Bowls.
Is Russell Wilson playing his way out of the Super Bowl or out of the Hall of Fame?
I don't know.
There's gonna be so many quarterbacks from this era who have a good argument for the Hall of Fame, so many, and I don't know. I'm always hesitant the one guy, though, Dan, and I'm hesitant on Russell Wilson. I would like to see him do a little bit more somewhere outside of the cocoon of Seattle, and he hasn't yet. But let's see the one guy who this year in Detroit on that Sunday night, and then against San Francisco, I said to myself, Matthew Stafford. I'm not saying it's an absolute, no doubt. Matthew Stafford absolutely has my vote. I think he's this generation's Dan Fouts. And plus he's got a super Bowl. Dan Fouts didn't have one. I just think that Matthew Stafford and what he's done with a team that many times has been down and out because of injuries, he just keeps them in every single game.
And I just I think Matthew Stafford special. And what I found interesting is these younger quarterbacks Caleb Boy, yeah, CJ. Stround and they were gushing over Matthew Stafford, Yeah, gushing yeah. And I'm like, I mean they grew up on him, and they're watching now. Granted he wasn't on the big stage really other than with the Rams, but they're seeing him and seeing what it's like to be a quarterback to be able to do what he's doing. And I found that amazing because if you're a young quarterback, you're probably saying, maybe it's Tom Brady, maybe it's Patrick Mahomes, somebody. They're watching Matthew Stafford when he was in Detroit. Yeah, And gushing over him.
Yeah, and I mean, look, everybody's gonna say if he say, oh, Matthew Stafford, the negative people for the Hall of Fame. To me, Matthew Stafford lifted that franchise for so many years into at least mediocrity when they probably didn't even deserve that. And I would I'd say one of the saddest things I've seen is when his own wife and their kids go to the first game of the season because they're going to get booed. I mean, you know, sports fandom has really gone too far when something like that happens bothers me.
Well, Dan Campbell, you lose the playoff game and somebody leaks his address and you got it. I mean, they should be planting flowers, yes, at Dan Campbell's house.
Yeah, he's He's fabulous. So that whole franchise. You know, last year in training camp, I remember I'd been to the Lions over the years in training camp and there's sixteen people there, you know, as a crowd. And last year it was raining steadily at seven thirty in the morning for an eight to thirty practice, and there was a line of people waiting to get in a long line I mean they've changed football in Detroit. Bill Parcells always said the one team that he thought would have been great to coach, not that he looked back and wanted to change his life, would be the Detroit Lions. He just had a fascination because when Parcels was a kid, the Lions meant something.
Yeah, and Tony Dungee said, yeah, he came close to coaching the Lions because his dad was a Lion science fan.
Yeah.
Before I let you go, your remembrances of Pete Rose when you were in Cincinnati, do you have a favorite.
I'm twenty three years old. I just get hired by the Cincinnati Inquirer. The Philadelphia Phillies come to town, and my sports editor says, go, basically, do the state of Pete Rose? What's going on with him now? With the Phillies all that? And I went into I just walked into the clubhouse before a game four point thirty in the afternoon in Cincinnati, and I introduced myself and he goes, oh, Peter King, Hey you're new at the Inquirer. That's cool, love the inquired great paper. Where are you from Enfield, Connecticut?
Oh?
How jammed up out of here? Well, I went to Ohio University.
Oh cool.
He interviewed me for two minutes before I started talking to him and Dan. Over the years, I would see him occasion. I went to lunch with him one day in New York when he was still managing the Reds, just for fun because.
I like the guy.
And then the last time I saw him was maybe five six seven years ago. I was out at Fox on the Fox lot in LA and I saw him and he goes, Peter, how you doing? What are you doing here? You know? And he had the memory of an elephant. He really did. And he could talk to anybody pretty much about anything as long as it had to do with sports. Yep.
And if you didn't get a chance to listen to Johnny Bench yesterday.
Yeah I gotta hear that. I gotta go back and listen.
Yeah, yeah, it was raw. Are you sticking around for the pizza party after the show? I am, yeah, okay, Yeah, thank you, Dan, It's great to be with you. That's Peter King. Let's Go podcast, Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Max Crosby, and Jim Gray Monday at six eastern on Mad Dog Radio that's Channel eighty two.

The Tigers Astros two thirty pm Eastern is on ABC ABC, not a cable channel.
Well, they were on ABC ABC yesterday.
That kind of snuck up on me.
I didn't know they were on ABC until Fritzy goes ABC and I'm like, oh, maybe there's a disaster happening. It's local news and I all of a sudden I tune over and it's one out in the ninth with runners in scoring position.
That was odd.
I was looking for it on MLB Network at ESPNESPN too, and I'm like, how to look it up to see where it was?
I got something here, Dak Prescott's winning percentage in prime time. So they're gonna have primetime game against the Steelers. His primetime winning percentage is just over seventy percent. He's one of four quarterbacks with a winning percentage of seventy percent or higher in primetime starts since nineteen seventy so since the merger, a minimum of twenty five starts in primetime, Dak Prescott is one of four quarterbacks who've won seven out of every ten primetime games. Paulie, I'll start with you. Brett Farv wrong. I sounded like I knew it. Marvin Ben, Roethlisberger, No, Todd Joe Montagne, yes, Paulie Mann, Jim Kelly, no, Dan Marino, No, Paulie Wait decade since nineteen seventy No, oh, Roger Staubach, No, good night. I am shocked that you don't know who. Steve Young and Peyton Manning are heard of him. I would have thought you would have said Tom Brady just for the number of games Patrick Mahomes can join this group with a win on Monday Night, that he's right now just under seventy percent winning percentage in primetime. I thought that was kind of interesting, all right, this day in sports history. Peter King just mentioned that forty five years. Chris Berman has been at ESPN starting today. Congratulations there, Chris. All right, what else do you have this day in sports history?
Nineteen o eight, a baseball player named Eddie Joss of the even Indians pitched the fourth perfect game in Major League history.
This is a good one.
The Cincinnati Reds and the Pittsburgh Pirates in nineteen twenty played the only triple header in baseball history. Reds won two of three. They had to get it in before the season was over. I guess, okay, and that's about it.
Let's see. How about the first pinch hit home run in World Series history happened on this date in nineteen forty seven. Rat fire No Marvin, Jackie Robinson, Yogi Barra, That's what I said, Yogi Berra. It was against the Dodgers. He hit it off Ralph Branca. Yeah. Nah. Back then and time it's farm and John Bucky Dent, Ah, Bucky f and Dent on this day, nineteen seventy eight home run.
You know, we need more of guys with nicknames like Bucky and Yogi.
Yeah. Uh, let's see anything else. And after sixty seven seasons, Vin Scully calls his final Dodgers game. Derek in Denver, Hey Derek, what's on your mind today? Hey Derek DP, can you hear me? Yes?
I can good sixth the buck eighty yo. I was at the I was at the last A's game and I got a vial of dirt for you. I want to send to you, and I just wanted to six Yeah, no doubt. And it was such a joyous occasion. It was one of the nicest places I've been and I want to let the world know that Oakland is a beautiful place.
Well. I look forward to getting the vial of dirt from the from the last game there. Thank you, Derek. I always love getting some chotchkes here. Nick and the Ozarks. Hi, Nick, what's on your mind today?
Hey morning, Dan, Dan, it's backroom boys. There was a scene and a few good men where Tom took a quick cruise.
Okay, he ran.
After Joe and the rain after they figured out she blew the case and he was going to put just upon the stand.
Okay, thank you, Nick. Yeah, Tom cruise. He's always running. Elliott in San Diego, Hi, Elliott, what's on your mind?
Hey Dan?
Longtime?
First time?
Five eleven one ninety I've been listening for so many years, I've never called, and I just figured out why I'd never called before. It's because I'm in San Diego. We lost our basketball team we've never had. We lost our football team, we never had a good basketball team. It's just so depressing down here. I thought, pretty pretty what should I do today? Should I go for a walk on the beach in latoyat eight degrees? You know, as a San Diego resident, I could go play Tory Pines out for seventy five bucks today, or maybe just take a hike in the nearby mountains. I thought I'd run it by you because life is just so bad. Maybe I should book a therapy appointment.
Are Elliott a little ye?
I still live in La visited San Diego many times, but they only have a baseball team in the Aztecs.
