Dan and the Danettes weigh in on Pitbull’s purchase of the naming rights to Florida International University’s football stadium. And Scott Hanson joins the show to talk about hosting “Gold Zone” and covering the Olympics.
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio Final Hour.
In this Tuesday Dan and The Dan Ats Dan Patrick Show, Scott Hansen, NBC Peacock Gold Zone, he'll join us. Coming up a little bit a lot to recap from yesterday. Simone Biles wrapped up her vacation in Paris, and Noah Lyles it will be in the finals of the two hundred meters and the man named Mundo Armundo Duplantis he set the world record, the Olympic record in the pole vault. He said both that it was fun because once you've won the gold medal in the long jump and in the pole vault, I don't know if they do that in the high jump, but they do it in those two events where they say, you want to go for the record, and I don't know if somebody wants to try for you know, Bob Beeman's all time record in the long jump. But still if you win the gold medal and you go, you know, give it a shot here. And he had three tries and got it on the last try. So it was a fun little up there. You got basketball team USA, the men's team. They're favored by twenty seven against Brazil basketball. I don't know if it's final Australia versus Serbia, Canada facing France as well, so some of the Olympic basketball team, USA, the women's basketball team will be in action. Is that tomorrow, ton, It'll be tomorrow three, third Eastern and they are playing They are playing Nigeria, Nigeria, all right? Eight seven seven three show email addre Sdpatdanpatrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show Pole. Question for the final hour is going to be what Seaton? Let's recap a few shall I?
Okay?
You can have on your team an all Pro running back or an all Pro kicker?
Right now?
Fifty five percent of the audience are taking the running back or would you rather be a running back or a kicker? Right now? Eighty two percent would rather be a kicker?
Okay?
Interesting? And if you are Brandon Ayuk, who would you want to play for?
Right now?
With forty six percent of the vote, we've got the Steelers, followed by Brown Commander's Patriots and.
Least Yeah once again. The NBC Sports Bay Area reported overnight the Niners are looking at the Browns or Patriots as a destination for Brandon Ayuk and he has the ability to be able to say no to any trade. He's twenty six years of age, going to double his salary and wants to get paid. Leaving that offense there with San Francisco. But there were other teams, the Commanders, I had heard the Commanders initially, and then the Steelers who are involved. Now looks like it's down to the Browns and the Patriots. But he may not want to go to either one of those teams. I would expect the Browns that we've already heard that Monti Cooper is I think part of that trade that San Francisco reportedly wants a veteran in return for Brandon Ayuk, who is going to get paid. And once again the big winners will be Ceedee Lamb and Jamar Chase because they're keeping a close eye on this to see what they're co track will be worth. You know, it's tough when you're negotiating with the Cincinnati Bengals because Mike Brown, you know, he just doesn't do this very often where he overpays even compensates correctly. That's why you know Joe Burrow got paid but t Higgins did not. Jamar Cha like, this is why you draft if you don't draft Jamar Chase in the top five unless you think you're going to pay him as a top five wide receiver, He's worked out perfectly for you. And that's what I don't understand. If you're drafting him and this isn't a running back, you're drafting him, you expect him to be great. Why don't you compensate him for that greatness? You know it's not a running back in Saquon Barkley where, Yes, did the Giants make a mistake in drafting him where they drafted him? Yes, we can look back and say yes, even though in the moment I was in favor of it. But you know, they eventually let him go so they didn't compound it by signing him to another long term contract. But with the Bengals, this is what you want. If you're taking a wide receiver, he better be great. Now, the question is have you seen the greatness? And then you don't want to spend thirty million dollars on Jamar Chase. Now it might come down to that, that's your philosophy. But Ceedee Lamb. Same with the Cowboys, and we said this before with Ceedee Lamb, he's great. You expected him to be great. He's a first round draft pick. Pay him now. Nope, we're gonna wait, and then we're gonna wait, and then we're gonna wait and then they're gonna sign him. Same thing with Dak Prescott, Gonna wait, gonna wait, gonna wait, although with Dak maybe they don't. Maybe I don't know what Jerry's philosophy is anymore. I don't know if he has a philosophy to begin with. But you know, these these Brandon Nayak's gonna get a lot more money than you think. And he's you know, when you go down the roster, there of Christian McCaffrey, and you got Debo, and you've got George Kittle, and then you got Rock Party, and then you kind of get to Brandon Nayuk, who is very underrated. He might not be underrated very much longer. He might be overrated, might get overpaid, but I can't blame him. He's twenty six. Get paid. Then you want to circle back and maybe try to win a Super Bowl with another team later in your career. Great get paid. Stat of the Day is always brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards to the Dan Patrick Show. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for downloading the app. We say good morning to iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio, all of our affiliates around the country. Jim Harball, now the Chargers coach, denies any involvement in the so called cheating scandal that the NCAA is investigating Michigan about.
Never lie, never cheat, never steal. I was raised with that lesson. I've raised my family on that lesson. I have preached that lesson to the teams that I've coached. No one's perfect. If you stumble, you apologize, and you make it right. Today, I do not apologize.
I did not.
Participate, was not aware nor complicit in those set allegations. So for me, it's back to work and attacking with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.
I did love the end of it. But you're not going to change, you know, your direction on this. If it was denied, denied, deny, denied, didn't do it, didn't do it, didn't do it, then what would change is you go to the Chargers. Did all of a sudden you have truth serum and you go, you know, maybe I wouldn't tell them the truth. Ah, you got me, he asked me. The question here, guilty is charged. You're going to continue with this and he doesn't have to answer anymore. He's answered it, and he can say that now when somebody says, hey, although somebody's going to come back or they should when more information comes out with the investigation, and then they're going to say, a coach, how do you respond to this that you were told this or you were given this, or you know somebody who was on your staff did this. Then he's going to have to answer that. But right now it's denial. I mentioned this at the end of last hour. According to ESPN, International, recording artist Pitbull is purchasing the naming rights to Florida International's football stadium. He's going to pay the school one point two million dollars per year for the next five years. They're going to change the name of the stadium to Pitbull Stadium, per Florida International University Board documents. Well, if that's the case, then why doesn't Florida International. Oh, you're giving me some pitbull ladies and gentlemen, the pit bull.
Gimme.
Now he doesn't sing that, does he? It's Pitbull featuring Neo Oh Okay, so Neo is the actual singer. That would be the Neo portion of that would be that would be the actual singing portion of this.
It started out with Pitbulls.
Oh yes, okay, you can't say feet feet thank you, ton Well Florida International, you should change your name to the pit Bulls.
I think that the panthers.
Huah, come on, let's blame the building.
Holds twenty thousand to be rocking though.
Now the pit that's what we're gonna call it. Yeah, yeah, here we go doing the work for him.
Man, yes, set So other than vanity, why do that?
Uh, South Florida? Maybe I would say vanity?
That is that? That's really the only play?
Right, Well, there's probably a right off, isn't it. Why Why is it a right off?
Yeah?
I know he's given to the university.
Is that so that's a donation? Maybe yeah, I couldn't.
Ok that.
We'll see now now we're starting to get somewhere. Now it's making sense and he's getting publicity.
Yeah, but yes, Tom, could you just put put Pitbull.
On one of your sports cars and cold a day and just get the personalized likeness play.
It's gonna be on a stadium. Now, this is why we're doing.
Thank you, Tony. He's given back to a university. When's the last time you did that.
They've got plenty of my money in various schools around the.
Country, still asking for more.
Fair f i U football last year was four and eight.
Dan, Okay, they had as many wins as Dion did.
All right, they're gonna turn it around now.
Their coach wasn't named Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year though, checking the pit bulls.
Uh okay, well good, that's definitely like a real I made it moment.
Though, you know what? Yeah, I what do you mean?
Yeah?
Dude, he said they're naming the stadium of like of the school and like I'm assuming the neighborhood that he grew up in the high school he went to. It's like two miles down the road. Yeah, that's like a massive you know what, I'm gonna throw my name on the stadium.
Why not?
What? But when Jimmy Kimmel, you know, had the naming rights to that Bowl game, did we go?
Boy?
You know, he's made it Now.
That was more snarky, but I loved it.
But he's still that was an odd game. This is his five year commitment to something, but it was yeah, one point two million dollars there one time.
Not that he cares, but as the average person drives by and sees pitt Bull Stadium, is the reaction more wow? How cool is that Pitbull Stadium put his name on the stair or is it really Yeah, but.
You're an old man. If you're young, let's say you're twenty five, you might go, that's pretty cool. Man, tik talker's man like, we're going to the pit. I don't know how much money does pit bull way? Okay, pitbull career salary gain. Yeah, let's do pitbull career salary again? Because I have no clue about this guy's career. I already know, so I'm gonna recuse myself seating tracks a weekly, say this that's the origin.
How about we let this person sing he is our neo. There could be a pitbull fist pumping. Okay, I have no idea what.
I'm sure he's made a far more money than i'd ever think, Todd, what is the career salary of Pitbull?
Three hundred and sixty eight point two million dollars?
All right, Seaton, no countere Todd is gross.
That is very high. Todd is gross extremely high. That is wildly inact. Okay, oh, you've already know Marvin.
Sixty eight million dollars sixty.
Eight million, insulting. I'm gonna say two eighty two to four.
I have him in twenty twenty three alone making eighteen million dollars touring.
Okay.
His net worth, they say, is between one hundred and one hundred and twenty million dollars career sellary.
Okay, solid, All right, done, well, yeah, a round up appause for the pit bull. He's got naming rights money, YEAHU of the ball? At what point do you get naming rights money? Got to make over one hundred nine nine figures? Yeah, like you get to one hundred million now you don't have to run it by your wife where it's like you wrote a check for one point two million dollars pitt uh, where did it go to?
Thinking about investing in the Seaton O'Connor School of Broadcasting or you know, at West Virginia University or something.
Yeah, those are all naming.
Run in all seriousness, not joking. I think where Miami University plays is hard rock stadium. Do you call the rock and say, it's already called hard Rock Stadium. Yeah, you don't have to transition that much to call it Dwayne the Rock Johnson Stadium. If I'm Miami, I'm calling the Rock today and saying give us, give us twenty million. And why does he care? He played there?
Right, he was on the team there.
Okay, well, I mean that's both ros.
But why does he need to do that?
Because he has five times as much money as Pitbull? And that's yeah, but why does he need to do that? Not need? I just I'm just saying I'm Miami, I would call if I'm.
The Rock, I don't go, you know what I'm gonna spend unless you want to give to your university. But I don't think you go, you know what, I'm going to give you a twenty million and I want my name up there in lights. You're the Rock. You don't need to pit Bull. Probably he would need a little boost here. Yeah.
See, that's why they usually do the things like the Seaton O'Connor Theater. That's the stuff that you do, like you a library, donate your library, or the medical school or you know, you resell the name of the stadium every five years, so you just keep making money.
Yeah. I remember being in meetings when people at No Fear were going to purchase the naming rights of the Oakland Coliseum for the Raiders, and I remember being asked by one of their executives, do you think that we should do this? And I said, if you have the money, yes, because it's the Raiders and it's No Fear And for whatever reason it fell apart, or they decided not to No Fear kind of fell apart too, but just the fact that you could have No Fear stadium and it had to do with the Raiders, I said that would be a perfect marriage there. All right, poll question for the final hour seating, did you locate one?
Yeah?
We got three of them working right now. We're very focused on well, I think more off air than on air about the value of running backs versus kickers, which is not a good sign for running backs. I don't know why we continue to Okay, kick them while they're down, but okay, if.
I take do I take Justin Tucker and Christan McCaffrey out of this orgin? Well that's only singular. We're only doing a singular there, that's a you want Christian McCaffrey or Justin Tucker. You're talking running back or kicker.
Kind of the same thing. They're like the face of this question.
I know, but you if you said I could have Harrison Butker or Isaiah Pacheco, it's not even a question in their teammates. If you said I could have Justin Tucker Christian McCaffrey, I'd take Christan McCaffrey. Both are going to the Hall of Fame. It might be more of a discussion than the football purist would believe that it should be. But Justin Tucker affects games. I got Christian McCaffrey affecting a game in let's say thirty five plays or the potential for thirty five, maybe forty plays in a game. Yeah.
Seen, So if you're looking, then Justin Tucker, Derrick Henry. Derek Henry's obviously new to the team, but Justin.
Tucker not even close. I don't know if there's another player, another running back where I go, Justin Tucker or Christian mccaffery's the only one where I go. Yeah, but let's say Derrick Henry and Harrison Butker. I'm still taking the kicker. It's just because the running back isn't as impactful, and it feels like we replace these running backs and now we do replace kickers. You know, there's times when you go, did he used to be? Yeah? But then he went there and then he came here. Nobody's like Justin Tucker. He changed the position.
I guess Harrison Bucker is apparently.
Well, he's gonna be. He's part of the Super Bowl winning teams and he's been a very clutch kicker. But he's not Justin Tucker.
Somebody has to get to the point. See, this is the thing that I struggle with, is that somebody has to get to the point where the kicker can even be used. I get that there's other positions that can do that too.
Using your quarterback and wide receiver, not necessarily your running back. There's only one. There's only one guy, and maybe Saquon Barkley can have that impact with the Eagles. You're right, I understand what you're saying. We got to get in position for you to do your job. Without us, you can't do your job. I agree, I mean right, like Derrick Henry would be the counter that act. Because the Titans are pretty terrible for a long time aside from him being able to run through fifty thousand brick walls. But you're talking about now after he's run through those brick walls, and therefore, now you said Derrick Henry Prime, then maybe you know that's a discussion. But there's not many running backs where it is a discussion where you go, Wow, would I rather have Frank Gore or throw out a kicker Mason Crosby.
You think there's been more great kickers in the game than there have been running backs?
Oh not in history? Yeah, oh no, no, no, the game is littered with great running backs, right, Very few kickers have gotten into the Hall of Fame. I mean, vine Terry's going to go into the Hall of Fame. But they've been really really stingy on putting kickers in there. Morten Anderson finally got in. Who else, Pete gogolak Yan, stenerud or they had the other kickers in there. That's it.
If they affect the game so much, though, why are they're so underrepresented?
Same thing with the punters. McAfee said, it's a game of you know, field position, and punters affect that more than anybody else. I agree, I forget who it was.
It might have been like Urban Meyer or somebody, but he had the most interesting take of like, if you can just get to say the forty yard line, and we punt the ball and get them pinned back in the ten, we've done our job. Yeah, now we're starting in a great spot. And it's weird because he's talking about basically going three and out, say or whatever. But if you could just if we our first possession, even if we can just punt and get them pinned back, we've done our because we're starting the game the right way. That's the fascinating way of looking at it.
But it changes your whole offensive philosophy because now your playbook shrinks a little bit, and you know, you get a risk getting sacked at the two yard line or in the end zone, and that you might just be handing the ball off twice and then having you know, third and eight, try to complete a pass there. All right, let me take a break. We'll talk to Scott Hansen. He's working for NBC and Peacock during the Olympics, the Peacock Gold Zone. He'll join us coming up next year. Dan Patrick Show.

Scott Hansen, co host of NBC Peacock's Gold Zone Olympic coverage. He is mister Red Zone as well. I don't know if there's other colors coming his way, and you can watch the Gold Zone right here on Peacock every day at too Eastern throughout the Paris Olympics. Any other colors we should be aware of, Scott.
I'm hoping to pay off with some green zone after all this attention like that.
I like that you see you, Dan, Good to see you, Good to see you. Give me the difference if there is a difference in sort of the cadence of what you're doing with the NFL Red Zone to the Gold Zone with the Olympics.
Yeah, it's there's a number of similarities and a multitude of differences. Actually, it's ultimately a whip around show for the Olympics. Just like Red Zone, we'll get you to that action that is the hottest going on anywhere the NFL, We'll get you to the action that's hottest in.
Paris or Tahiti if surfing is going on at the time.
So the concept is still the same, the cadence the execution of it, as you well know, is completely different for a number of reasons. One, in the NFL, we've got a forty second play clock with which to work, right, So I've got Aaron Rodgers taking a snap. I know I can get to Kirk Cousins in another stadium and then come back to it. Half of the Olympic sports are untimed, so you don't have a clock with which to work, let alone a shot clock or something that you know that the action will be happening a minute later, thirty seconds later. On top of that, you've got road races that can last four hours long. You've got cycling sprint races that the entire gold medal match is forty five seconds. And then of course the fastest man fastest woman in the world take nine seconds ten seconds.
So the execution is a whole lot different.
And another respect when I cut to a Cowboys game on red Zone, I'm not saying, let's go to the Cowboys game. This is a football team that plays in Dallas, Texas. That there are eleven men over here. There are eleven men over here. The field is one hundred yards long. The scoring goes by six and then one or two. After I go to fencing, I better explain. Okay, three nine to three minute rounds scoring to forty five.
Here's how you score.
So it's like it's like reinventing broadcasting for an American audience.
Every time we go to a different sport.
Give me the sport though that has you be fuddled.
Oh which ones don't? I'll tell you what.
I can't believe that skeet shooting, which seems simple enough, skeet shooting does not have instant replay. We had a women's skeet shooting gold medal head to head match right pull and two Claymor's boom, boom. They the powder pops and stuff. The Great Britain shooter aslutely hit the target, a piece of the orange flew off, it didn't burst into powder, and all three judges missed it. The way they judge that sport is they have a judge standing right behind the one shooter and if that person misses it, like the home plate umpire, did he check his swing, they look down first base line. They've got the same thing in shooting. All three of them missed it. The TV replay was absolutely clear, and the woman lost her chance for a gold medal because of that. That funneled me in modern world, we can't get it right sometimes.
Skeet shooting, scandal, question mark scandal.
You guys should be talking about it for the rest of the week here on the show.
Dan And you know names are also tricky as well, oh Man, because you know, normally you focus on Team USA, but if Team USA is involved in competition with Team Serbia or azer By Johnny, you know you gotta knows a little bit about not a lot. You need to know a little bit about a lot.
You well know that the research department here at NBC Sports is world class the attachment and the email that we all received for the pronunciation guide for the Olympics was one hundred and forty five pages of names and phonetics. You want to play a little game with you and the Danetes, if you don't mind, I've got so. I'm going on my shift here for Gold Zone, we do three hour shifts. I'm going on my at two o'clock Eastern. I have a men's welterweight boxing match which features and someone write this down and if one of the dan Nets can pronounce this correctly, I will personally run over there and give you one hundred dollars. And it was Bekastanian, welterweight boxer. First name Asa d.
K h u j A. That's the first name, second name or last name m u y d I n k h you j A e V.
You're one of the world's greatest sportscasters, Dan. If you can tackle that, this is history right here on the Dan Patrick Show.
Anybody want to take a stab at this.
Todd Sagka, John My Dinkojev.
You got I think you got the the the number of syllables right, but no, the the emphasist.
Was not on the right syllables on that one.
Uh you want to try to or no, no, no, this is now. This is where I say, And let's bring in the analyst who we'll be doing the boxing here.
I'm going to say the fighter from Uzbekistan. That's what I'm going to say.
But it is a sad hujah moidy who Ji is.
But see, Okay, having done this before, there's nobody from that country who's going to call you on this when you screw it up. Just sound confident.
Okay, I'm gonna got you. I'm going to lean into it. I'm going to lean into it. And yeah, his mom's not watching NU.
Yeah, they're not calling up you know the network, the you know the hotline and going he miss miss Britt. I had a moment on Sports Center one time where I had a story about Shaquille O'Neil. The graphics person put up O'Neill as and spelled it like Paul O'Neill. Oh, okay, Well the problem was Shaq's dad, Sarge was watching. Oh boy, calls my voicemail and airs me out. You know my son? How do you not know how to spell his I don't even know what he's talking about. It's over my shoulder.
Read it and yeah you didn't, you didn't write it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like people think we put up the graphics there, the you know, the fonts and all of those things, but yeah, you got to be careful with that. But I think you're safe with you know Who's Bekistan?
Yeah, yeah, No, it's fun look at and you know what if The great thing about gold Zone is that if the fighter whose names we ken or cannot pronounce, does something out of this world, we can bring it to you that the crew at gold Zone is remarkable because this hasn't really they've had gold Zone and i'll pass two Olympics NBC Sports has, but it wasn't quite done in the red zone style. This is they brought me on to kind of bring that red zone flare to it. We're we're we're driving the car as we're assembling it, as the cliche goes, and we'll say we've got something. There's thirty nine different sports at more than forty different venues in Paris. We've got eyes on all of it and if you trust us with your remote control, we'll get you to where you need to go. And there can be some of those moments. Did you happen to catch Mondo de Plantis? Oh yeah in the pole vault yesterday. I mean that was absolute goosebumps moments. I don't care if you've never watched a track meet in your life. Just thrilling, thrilling theater.
I love when you yell out we have a medal.
Oh yeah, metal medal alert.
Yeah, we have a metal alert. Yes.
You know how that came about.
When NBC Sports was recruiting me, let's say, to sign up to host this. I had a meeting with some of the executives in Burbank, I live in Los Angeles, and we're just discussing things and one of the producers, Amy Rosenfeld, who.
Was at ESPN for years and years.
Amy and I were just talking, kind of geeking about out about how can we really bring the Olympics.
I said, do you know what you guys ought to do?
So many times you cut to the track or the swimming pool and it's a heat, it's a quarter final, it's a semi final, and it's like, okay, there's not really drunk. You need to let the people know, hey, stop the presses. There's a gold medal, Like did it end?
Did it end?
The pick is in at the NFL Draft. And I literally did this during this lunch and the lights went on and they said, why haven't we been doing that?
Like you're covering all these events.
When it's a gold medal, there needs to be a visual and audio representation of Hey, this is the part you need to pay attention to. So we kind of put the little graphic like the pick is in at the NFL Draft for the gold medal.
Alert favorite moment so far has been one.
Ooh, there are a sense of good ones.
I mean, the Mondo de plant Is setting a world record when he didn't even need to attempt. It was pretty good. I'm an American. I love when the USA takes gold. However, my second favorite moment in any given games usually has something to do with the home country, the host country and France the judo heavyweight. I don't know if you guys talked about this or you happen to see this. Okay, France a judo heavyweight. He was the co lighter of the cauldron. So that's how well he's thought of. Right, you only put your best, your most famous ass athletes, most popular athletes to like the cauldron as the host country. Teddy Renaer heavyweight judo athlete, and he won his heavyweight match with thirty seconds left to go flip the guy over. It's called the eBay, I believe is what they refer to it as in.
Front of the home crowd.
And then he came back two days later for the team event, and I got to describe this to you. If I have thirty seconds, they do a team event. If they're tied, they they overtime. In team judo is a random draw for two competitors from the same weight class from you know, the gold and silver medalist finalists go head to head. But the way they determine the random draw is the price is right wheel, you know the wheel that they spin on prices right for the showcase showdown. They literally have one of these at the.
Olympics for judo. They spin it and it's.
Going kilograms kilograms kilograms going by on the thing and it stops at ninety kg, which is the heavyweight and other It was a WWE moment the crowd realizes our champion straight out of a freaking Marvel movie. Our champion is going against your champion, and the heavyweight division for the gold medal, and Reneer won it in front of the I'm getting I'm calling it. I'm getting goosebumps right now. That may be my favorite moment from the Games.
So spectacular.
If I put you and Andrew Siciliano in that studio and locked the studio and only one comes out? Who comes out?
Now?
See, you gotta do this. They put us on air together. They put us on air together, on camera together, which we've hardly ever been maybe in a talkback when he was working for NFL Media, we would do something, you know, via satellite, put us on and the internet did what the internet does with that. Andrew and I are buddies. There is no rivalry.
I just ask you a question, Scott. I'm a journalist. Okay, yes you are are a lot taller, larger than Andrew. But he's very scrappy. He's been an underdog all of his life. Who comes out traveler, who comes out of the octagon? I mean we're both Syracuse men too, by the way. That now see there goes that ancient ESPN because if Costas and I getting the octagon, I'm coming out alive there right Oh yeah, okay, oh yeah yeah.
Costas would have a team of lawyers waiting for you.
It's okay, that's okay, all right, so you against Cecili.
Oh my gosh, you're gonna make me. I had to think of a good quipie SoundBite that dodges this question. How can I? I mean, because look at truth be told, we are in two different weight classes.
So yeah, that's it.
I hope it never I hope it never comes to that, Dan, I hope it never comes to that. I'm just glad that that people will still be watching NFL Red Zone on the on the NFL and that Gold Zone.
Andrew and I can share the airwaves.
Gladly brothers in gold Andrew Siciliano and myself.
Hoping to be draped.
You almost got me. I almost said something. I almost said something.
I thought, you're in the content business.
What are you doing? Well, I'm a guest on this in this environment, not not not the host.
All right, I'll leave it there, great to talk to you, have fun. It's see you, Dan Hike you man. That's Scott Hansen. He is a co host of the Gold Zone and also the Red Zone.

Last Call for Phone Calls, What we learn? What's in store tomorrow? This day in sports History, and we start out with Aiden in Utah, Hi, Aiden, what's on your mind today? Oh? Waited A long time Teddy and Tampa Hi Ted.
Hight End first time long time six three, two hundred. So I just had an anecdote because you had Jared Payton on the line. I was a University of Miami student there one to five and not so much as play on the field, but I also field for his Green SUV with a JP license plate that would have different and new rims on it every single month. It would change on a monthly basis, and me being eighteen unaware of NTAA, the corruption was so apparent. You know, the practice fields are on the other side of Santa Maro Drive across from Pratt Rowe and my freshman year eight Cadillac escalades all in a row, then sophomore year Hummer H two is back to back to back, and I'm like, clearly there's some correct.
Well, Jared did come from money with his father, but I can't speak on behalf of all the other student athletes at the U. Yeah, it's been corrupt forever. It just did you want to see it. It's there right in front of you. It's just everybody. You know, we embraced NCUBLEA, embraced the student athlete, and I think it was Wolder Buyers who ran the NCUBLEA back in the seventies and gave us the student athlete. Well, that all of a sudden adds some regal tones to it's a student athlete. It's on. I just call you athletic students. It's like kid, anybody and maybe you were going to class, maybe you weren't, but you were giving. Everything was about perception. We're giving the perception that they're student athletes when in reality, even you know, the crappy basketball team I was on in college. You know, the perception and the reality, and we got to perceive, hey, this is what we do. And they go to class and they got tutors and they get I don't know if anybody that I was with graduated now, I don't know if they even cared they were there to play basketball. That's back in the seventies. Now, are there great student athletes?
Yes?
Are there those who do graduate? Yes, I get all that. But now we just raised the curtain and basically said, and there's the Wizard of Oz right there. All right, he's phony. This is what we have. Now they've embraced it. Now we know exactly what it is, and now we see how ugly it used to be.
Yes, Marmon, between the athletes come for money now because there's so many second generation millionaires that are coming into college and the nil everyone should be Ryding and Beamer Benzes and Bentley's everyone.
I remember where one of the guys on the team got a used money. Carlo, Like we weren't good enough. My teammates weren't good enough to get new cars. They got a he got a black money Carlo, and I remember going, oh, such and such, wow, Okay, we don't get new cars. He got a used car. This day in sports history, Paul, what do you have for me?
Eighteen ninety Cy Young got his first Major League victory over raided. Never wont to say Young. He had five hundred and eleven wins in his career. Nineteen twenty six. I've used that joke like nineteen times.
That's a good one.
It's bad, ye, No it is. It's good.
Slides past.
It still works.
Nineteen twenty six, Gertrude Elderly became the first American woman to swim the English Channel nineteen years old. Gurdy fourteen and a half hours, Gurdyikes nineteen fifty two, Satchel page age forty six. Oldest picture to complete a Major League baseball game. Willie Stargell of the Pirates in nineteen sixty nine hit a ball completely out of Dodger Stadium. Estimated feet from home plate anyone.
Five hundred and twelve feet.
I'm gonna give that to you five oh six.
Okay, nice Uh, didn't Daryl Strawberry hit one out of Dodger Stadium?
Checking?
I think it's it's the answer to it's a I can't remember the trivia question, but I think Darryl Strawberry hit one out of Dodger Stadium. Great when he was in high school.
Great swinging.
I think when he was in high school. Yeah, straw had one of those swings where you go, you know, here, I am around the Mets in the early mid eighties, and I'm seeing Dwight Gooden and I'm seeing Darryl Strawberry, And if you would have said to me, then neither of those guys will come close to the Hall of Fame. And I went, there's no way, no way, at least one, if not both, are going into the Hall of Fame. Let me see if I have one. The Philadelphia NBA franchise changed its nickname from the Nationals to the seventy six Ers. That was nineteen sixty three. Final results of the poll questions Seet O'Connor, I'm looking.
At a list right here that says, as of July twenty twenty four, six home runs have been recorded as leaving Dodger Stadium. I don't know if this is only Major League Baseball, though, which might be the caveat there.
I think there's one that has to do. And it's a trick question with Darryl Strawberry.
Could be Daryl Strawberry not among them these flame Dang.
You know, I'm forgetting as much as I'm remembering, So maybe I'm just making that up.
Yes, Marv, David Strawberry's got eight All Star Games, the three World Series.
Wow. Yeah, and he hasn't even sniffed the Hall of Fame.
But felt like he underachieved.
That's one of those guys we talked about yesterday.
Yeah, let's see white socks. Anybody got the white Sox tonight? Are we rooting for the right white Sox tonight? No? Once again, it takes. It takes. I can't say talent, but it's more of an achievement to lose twenty one in a row than it is to win twenty one in row. Yes, we just did.
Was it yesterday that we did? Who wants them to keep losing? Who wants them to keep winning? Does anybody change their mind from that time? I definitely wanted them to keep losing.
You want them to win?
Mark I wanted them to win, but since they lost, just keep losing, Todd?
Would you learn today?
Jim Harbor doesn't want to talk any more about Michigan spying allegations. Time to get back to work with a further enthusiasm unknown to mankind.
See what did you learn?
Willie Stargell hit the ball out of Dodger Stadium twice?
Boss Marvin?
Would you learn Mike mean Daniel doesn't want to talk money.
He was funny, sick of it. He was quirky, He was funny. He was exactly who we thought he was going to be. Polly, What did you learn tonight?
Mike McDaniel made a lot of friends at Yale think a lot of passes.
Yeah, he said that he he led Yale in friendships?
Todd?
What did I learn?
McDaniel says the abilities of his receiving core in Miami or the exact antithesis of how he played Yale.
