How the hell we feel in here? Boys on a Monday Mornking, Good mar Welcome back Buddy on the Dan Patrick Money.
Yeah we missed it, Jonas, we missed you, buddy.
Well you know I miss you guys. You get that new contract money man, you went off to Tahiti or something. What new contract? Yeah?
You know what I mean?
What are you talking?
He actually uh, he actually put himself with the punishment of going to Chicago and seeing the Cubs play.
So there's really, hey, they won one of two.
That is true. They're better than the White Sox.
So white Sox are so bad.
I mean you try to talk down the Cubs at times and your expectations for the Cubs, but they're better than the White sauce.
So you got that going for you.
Like there's a Listen, we're gonna get into the Caleb Williams discussion, but like there's there, like really is Bears, Hope and Angel Reese in Chicago like that, that's what you got to look forward to when it comes to Chicago school.
Did you get did you get a hot dog Chicago? Little Chicago dog?
Listen, there's a little uh hot dog car. I think it's called Kim and Carlos's hot Dog Car. Of course I would have found that name there. And they had one out in front of.
The Yeah, you know what that looks like a home game. I recognize that.
Dude.
I turned my wife without even saying anything. You just go see the well let's go. Yeah, we had a Chicago do we know?
It was a good time and you know, and then we get back, and I logged off of social media for like a week. Log back on first thing. I see, Hey, do you think that this US Olympic team could beat the Dream Team?
Let's do a compare. It's like, come on, man, can we not?
Can we just not play that game once isolated, different team, different story, not the second.
Let's also play that game for about two seconds and knows the answer?
All right, it would have to be. It would have to be.
No.
It's a hard no for me though.
I mean, think about by the way, and this is no disrespect to France or Serbia.
They wound up getting the bronze.
But Nicola Jokic literally willed the Serbian team to a bronze, which might be might be as impressive as him taking the Denver Nuggets to an NBA finals.
I'm not sure which is, but it seemed like.
He was happier, by the way, winning a bronze than he was actually winning an NBA finals.
Oh my god, Like I couldn't even believe it.
He was ecstatic. You were like, hey, you just want another MVP. It doesn't really mean anything.
I'm gonna go race my horses. They run.
Literally, he literally as soon as he left the Olympics, went right back to the horse track.
They had to make an AI of his horses playing with his MVP trophies, just to add some sort of life to his excitement level when it came to winning anything in the NBA. But he goes to the Olympics and they win a bronze and that guy was raging.
At it, which, by the way, he almost back to the original point. He almost single handedly helped his team beat the US team. They had him baut seventeen at one point. You know, they had to meme up. You know, they had the meme of Michael Jordan and Magic John's and sitting on like the seat with their Olympic uniforms on, like, yeah, you remember that great comeback we had to make to be able to win a gold medal. Yeah, we never were. We it was never closed. There were there were no closed games for there for for the Dream.
People try and discuss well, you know, the talent level is so much better nowadays than it was back then.
Of course because of the Dream.
All those young kids saw the Dream Team come and play in the Olympics and said I want to do that, and they've like young players have talked about that that completely changed. The Dream Team actually paid like carved out a path for international players nowadays, whether it's Dirk or Jokic or any of these guys Luca. And so when you see the comps and all that, like, you've got to like, these are the founding fathers of international basketball and.
It was a bunch of with that.
With that being sid, does that mean that the talent abroad? Because again I felt like the reason why it was such a big deal and why there was going to be so much scrutiny on this team if they had lost, was because, if you think about it, the best players in the NBA are euro players. The top picks in the NBA drafts have been euro players. And so now it does this shift from the dominance of what American basketball USA basketball looks like and what it represents. Do you have to open the conversation up even further if they weren't able to actually bring home a gold medal. So while I will say I do think the Dream Team would win just because I just I don't know, man, Maybe it's nostalgia more than anything else that makes me feel that way. But the talent level and the skill level probably more so than anything else. Guys are bigger, stronger, they're faster, and they're better. Training is different, technology is different. Everything is different now, and so it wouldn't It could possibly be a hard conversation. It's a hypothetical, so you don't ever have to live it down. But just imagine if it really were able to play out where the Dream Team could play this Olympic team. We might be surprised at what the results would be. That's all I would say.
It'd be the Dream Team handover fist, different era, different mentality.
Everything else to it.
I'll admit, yeah, the international players are better, but you also have an international.
Players playing on the USA team.
That's Joelle and Bean who obviously did not receive the reception he thought he would winning the gold.
Medal when he was up there.
But I mean, again, the reality is it was just to me a different time and era. I mean that roster top to bottom was some of the all time greats. And obviously the USA team now you've got Steph, you got Lebron, you got Katie, You've got a number of players who I think we we consider them that, but no Dream Team, and it's everything after that. They could be second place to them, third place, whatever you want, but that team's not being the dream team.
Fifth gold medal in a row for the US men's, eighth in a row for the US women's just a clean sweet for the US.
Would you have pay more attention to the ladies playing if Angel and Caitlin were on the team.
If Kaitlyn was, Yeah, just because, I mean you look at what Steph did to close out that game.
That's like what Caitlyn does.
And here's the thing is everyone seems to misconstrw like why there's this phenomenon in watching Caitlyn versus what Angel Reese does. Doesn't make you a wow When Caitlyn Clark throws up a shot from the logo, it's different, Right, Maybe you're watching for something else.
I'm just saying, that's what I'm talking about making.
I don't know, I don't know what you're watching looking for?
It went viral. You're looking for it now?
I mean I'm not looking for but I know it there. Yeah, I got news. That was the That was the deepest show prep le He's ever done. I Mean, we spent an entire hour on talking about Angel rees being that All Star Weekend with Jaylen Brown and her teammate that dates Jayleen Brown, but we didn't know Jaylen Brown was dating Angel Rees. There was just a whole lot of things that that lead a lot wanted to talk about. It definitely was.
By the way, Steph Curry's first gold medal, Like how about that, like first first appearance just.
To close it out in that was incredible.
They show they showed the diagram KD and Lebron James was standing there wide over with their heads. I'm like, hey, steps like I got it right there, Like yeah, man, what what you thought? I thought this was a game? This step her time? Baby, I'm cheffing right down. Oh man, threw the one up, just the one time over to two. You just threw it up like like he wasn't warm ups, bro. Man, the dude is as amazing a shooter as probably we will ever see in our entire lifetime. Man that I mean, that's just amazing what that dude.
Is able to do.
You guys think, because you've been around great athletes, do you think Steph is that good at say, beer pong, corn hole like some of these other games to where this is just applicable or is it only basketball.
He's a good golfers, a good golfer, good golfer.
I don't know, man, it just depends. Albert Heinstin couldn't tie shoes, really, that's I mean, that's what the reports say.
I also don't think Albert Heinstein can shoot a three.
Well that's there. But I'm just saying you could be great at like certain things and just not good at other things. Just wasn't a part of his deal.
Albert Einstein couldn't tie And we're listening.
Tell us about that?
Wait?
What he could tie his shoes?
Are you sure?
Look it up? I didn't put this in show proud. Let's see if we're out, we're here, Let's see what we got here. I mean, Velcrow is pretty sweet. I mean why not? Yeah, why not? Why waste your time on that? I agree, you know it takes a while, so we find.
Yeah, Lee's efforting, Lie's efforting whether or not Albert Einstein.
Ties? Was Einstein unable to tie his shoelaces or did he not tie his shoes? One explanation was given about this was he pretended he didn't know to tie his shoes because he found it a waste of his time. Okay, he didn't want it to occupy his mind. That's I mean, that's right. These are not sounds like, these are not given as as factual. It's just this was the answer that someone felt was the best thing.
That's like the person who's not married that goes, well, I'm not married because I got other things that are priority.
It's like, no, you haven't found anybody.
It feels like an excuse. I mean, just to stay on the Olympics topic. I mean, it feels like if you like lost a race, for example, saying you had COVID, but then you might be founded in the clubs immediately.
After the Olympics. What do you get at I'm not good.
I'm just saying it seems odd that you win one race and then the next one you lose, but now you have COVID even after your introduction where you looked like you're healthy, you look like you're a fine and then you're in the club after.
Are you saying that somebody was dealing a COVID card from the bottom of the deck. Is that what you said?
That sounds like it sounds like it was a convenient excuse for not winning a certain race, But then being in the club right after that.
Oh man, that man was sick.
He was he was cold, he had Yeah you see us intro. I've never seen a dude walk on the track like that in my life and act like if that was his flu game. It sure didn't look like Jordan that flu game.
Dang, oh man, you know what happens. Well, listen, it was a fun ride.
I appreciate the the Olympics, you know, a good solid two weeks of content here as we get ready for the NFL season.
It's time, though, It's time for that.
Yeah, we got preseason man, you got these rookies bawling.

It's a Dan Patrick show here Fox Sports Radio. LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox in for Dan and the guys. Here we are formerly our previous to this show on or Monday through Friday. Sorry about that we spoke there, but you can hear us Monday through Friday from six to nine am Eastern time three to six o'clock Pacific time on Two Pros and a Cup of Joe. But we've been asked here, Hey, filing for Dan and the guys. Dan is out. So here we are on a Monday morning, and we've talked about the Olympics. We've talked about the Olympics going bye bye, and it is now football time. We have got football on the brain, We've got football conversations to be had, and we're going to have all those football conversations here from the Tairaq dot Com studios and One of those conversations is the debut of Caleb Williams, seen and featured a lot on Hard Knocks, discussed all through the offseason. He made his debut against the Bills on Saturday in a preseason game. I don't know what you guys thought of the debut, and there's some other debuts we're going to get to, but Caleb Williams seemed to showcase the skill set that many people have been talking about over the past couple of years and why he was the consensus number one pick even going back to last year.
I actually think he will Like the NFL offenses are better suited for Caleb Williams to showcase his skill And it might sound a little bit odd insane that because you want a Heisman in college, but like hear me out for a second, Caleb Williams throwing on the run is absolutely incredible, Like I used, probably one of the best quarterbacks like entering into the NFL throwing on the run, as far as accuracy, the ability to shape throws, the ability to throw across his body, do things that most can't, and literally stepping in the NFL is one of the best I've ever seen ever and one of the things that if you go back to his time at Southern Cal, there's not a lot of offense like you're gonna see in the in the NFL in the sense of you can put them under center, you can run more boots, you can run more sprintouts, you can run more.
Move the pockets.
He was oftentimes just kind of sitting in shotgun and if things broke down, then you saw his ability to throw on the run and create because his athleticism ability to buy time. But in the NFL, every single week, it's all about matchups, and so your offense has all these different wrinkles and tools and things in there toward they change.
And the other thing is is there's you know.
Obviously you throw the football more than you do running the football, but it's much closer to a fifty to fifty split than in college football and some cases, and for him, I think that's going to allow him to play from under center a little bit more. It's going to allow him to actually, you know, be in a normal drop back passing game showcase all these different things that he's capable of doing, but not have to do it in the manner that he did it at Southern cal where it felt like it was off script or scrambling or buying time or having to make a play like it'll be more by design, And I think that's one of the things that should help him, I think, become an absolute star at the next level. But he's been phenomenal so far, kind of as you would expect with all the hype around him and everything that he'd showcase during his time in college.
I'll say this, he he definitely show that he can play at this level, which is first and foremost the initial thing you want to see is that he can handle being out there. I will say with the caveat that the one time that it would be doable to have success.
Would be in the.
I mean, let's just be clear. You're gonna have defenses that are not really going to show schematically what they're planning on doing to be able to try to limit a guy that you have to game plan against, So don't I don't take too much from it other than the fact that he looked like he was comfortable. He looked like he had command and control over what he was doing as as the general to feel general for the offense, and that should be a positive that you take away from it. I just I think that the conversation has changed so dramatically in how you speak on preseason just because of who's playing. And then you take in the other elements. Like I said, a defensive coordinator is not scheming for the Chicago Bears offense in the preseason. You're seeing what guys are capable of doing and seeing who's going to fill the roles that are available to them on their roster or so. But I do think that is a good start. I don't. I don't look at it as there was anything that would make me feel as though it would give you pause on thinking that Caleb Williams can live up to the I guess the expectation of what people are thinking he's going to be. I will I will, I guess also say and to that that I guess in that vein, I still kind of look at it from the standpoint of can he have the type of year because he's going to be judged off of Again, you're going to put the best of the best out there because they think he's the best. So you're going to compare him the guys to Patrick Mahomes. You're going to compare him to what CJ. Stroud did this past season. Can he block out that noise? Can he actually outplay what what a c J. Stroud did last season? I think there are going to be a few questions that are big questions for him and his His level of accomplishment and achievement may be fear or unfair, but I do think he's going to be judged and held to a different, you know, standard or different expectation than probably any other quarterback that that's been taken in this year's draft and made me in other drafts as well.
He was asked afterwards Caleb Williams whether or not his performance was reassuring coming back and playing in his first preseason game.
There is an understandment that it is preseason that you know, everybody's not going to show their looks and you know what they would do versus and vice versa. But it definitely is, you know, it definitely feels good to get out there.
The last time I was.
Out there on the field other than practice, it was November eighteen, and it's you know, you go that long without something, it's it's it's tough, but you know, it's been great. The guys have made it fun. They made it easy on me. So to get out there and and and and have the confidence you know that we had out there, it's it's only going to get better and we can't wait.
Kind of wild to think November eighteenth was the last time we played. It's a long ass time ago. And then he gets thrown and do an NFL game a preseason or not, and to perform the way that he did.
There was also a.
Little like, isn't every rookie quarterback pretty much thrown into that? I mean, I'm just saying like that they're going to end either November or December or maybe being in January, but it's always gonna be a long wait like that.
There was a moment there where and maybe I'm just looking too far into this, but where he rolled out and as he was rolling out like one of his first drive it might have been his first drop back as a quarterback in the NFL, and he notices that there's some illegal contact or a hole that was happening in front of him on the offensive line, and he turns as he's on the run and looks to the official behind him to call for a hold. And I thought to myself he's like none of this is too big for him, Like it seems like everything is at the right speed, at the right pace, Like he doesn't seem like he's overwhelmed or any of it is is confusing or anything like that. And you just saw somebody's like the decisions, the throws, little thing like that, which is why just being in Chicago last week, they are all in on Caleb Williams. It's everywhere it should be.
This should be.
He's a He's a you know, franchise changing type of talent.
I mean, that's truthfully what he is.
And to your point about that, like the things I've always appreciated about him is I've always seen a few instances and it really was last year when he played you know, at s where he pressed. Usually he does a great job of letting the game come to him, and I think his ability to improvise, his ability to get outside the pocket and throw on the run probably gives him that confidence because he always knows he has.
That in his back pocket.
If if anything does happen off script, he can execute as good as anyone. And so that's probably why that's the case. But to your point, I mean, he's so far checked that box of being able to handle the preseason speed that all come down to to the regular season, which is another level up, like LeVar touched on, and we'll see how he adjust not necessarily throughout the course the season, but like end game, because every single series, defense are doing something different to shut you down, and defense are making adjustments.
That's the biggest thing that he's going.
To have to overcome is how teams go about trying to keep him in the pocket and trying to make him play from the pocket, and then putting pressure on him in a variety of ways once he's played enough and they feel like he's got some tendencies.
It felt like a majority of the first round quarterbacks performed pretty well.
I don't know if that's yeah.
Like Jayden Daniels was brief, not bad. JJ McCarthy looked okay, Bo Nicks looked great.
For Denver, I'll say this going just going back to Caleb Williams, the one thing that did really stand out for me and the few reps that he took is that he's not scared. He's not nervous, like he's not going to get at least for now. It didn't seem as though he could get rattled into, you know, as Q mentioned kind of like pushing or forcing to try to make plays. I mean, you look at that screenplay that they ran. It took some It took real bravery, It took courage to execute that. Like people will say, oh, look at the throw, the way he flicked it, you know, and got it out. I say, look at how long he held it. Look at how much time he gave the running back in the offensive line and everybody to get in position and still not take a sack and be able to deliver the ball the way that he did. Those are the things to me that scare you as a defender. You know, when when somebody can they can take that lack of fear and can actually execute at a high level on the go like that as a quarterback. That's what's going to keep defensive coordinators up at night, like what are we going to do? The kid can run. I mean he might have. I don't think it's a stretch to say he's probably a better runner than Patrick Mahomes. He has the same type of a way of going about throwing the ball and delivering the ball and reading the field like a Patrick Mahomes does. I think he has more athletic ability than he does as well. So if he does take off and run, We've seen Patrick Mahomes dismantled defenses and make it harder to defend them because he creates that man on man. You know that matchup, you got to have somebody who can keep up with Patrick Mahomes. You're not just going to get them with a defensive lineman. So that's I think it's a scary proposition to see that Caleb Williams is so comfortable so quickly and so early in this early stage of his career. Because to have that confidence and that ability to stand in there and know what it is that you're getting yourself into, it can make him super dangerous moving forward. Man, what about that frozen rope to Cole Commet on the run? A think about that? I mean, he's he's I mean, he just he showed that he's special, that's for certain. And it does look like it translates into the pro game. And that's what you want to see in the preseason because you could, I mean there could there's been some trash quarterbacks. I have to have great preseasons. I mean I was on a team that won five games. We went we went four four four O four five and oh four no, and in the preseason and didn't win like like we won like three games in the regular season, if that counts as eight total. I'm just saying I've seen it where teams can have great success offenses, defenses, players like, oh yeah, this guy who is a guy? Who is the quarterback? You say, Danny, It's it's not so much about the quarterback. It's about just the given circumstances of what the preseason represents. Danny Warfol it was. I do believe it was Danny Warfold that was the quarterback. Why Danny Warfole catches straight? He didn't catch a straight? He played very well. We thought we was gonna do something with the former Heisman Trophy winner and Florida great. You know, before there was Tim Tebow, there was Danny warfol You know, I'm just saying we thought we had it together. Had there are a whole lot of a whole lot of work to do.
You know, there is this like kind of behind the scenes thing for like backup quarterbacks where you try to, you know, rack up yards in the preseason because you know, the starter. So if if you're in a position where you are the backup, you do keep tabs on, like who's leading in like passing yards to preseason, et cetera.
Like you're always kind of keeping tabs on all.
Though, because oh yeah, because like it's the last playing time you get until something happens during the season. So if you go into a season, like a preseason like that, like you people definitely keep tabs on some of that.
I'll say this much.
I remember, I think Luke McCown and I want to say Josh too, when he was a backup, the mccowns would always always dime it up during preseason and like have a ton of yards. I think Luke in particular, I remember a couple a couple of preseasons where like he would have a crap ton of yards every single time. Were like day we got to catch loot Man. But I'm pretty sure is one of the two accounts.
Wait, how about Trey Lance having forty one pass the times yesterday?
He ain't got many? Got many? Damn? How about your boy Michael Pennix. But it's the preseason though, you know it's the preseason. Hey, By the way, do you think Pennix is going to start a game this That's what I'm saying. It's the preseason. I think he is, But I think the bigger question up is he going to win the job outright and start a game or is it going to be due to some type of an injury that sets Kirk Cousins back and sets him up to lose his job. Either way, it's just pretty stressed. If I'm Kirk Cousins. I know I'm getting the money, but that's a tap bit stressful for my playing time. I mean, Kirk Cousins said it recently.
That he would have or the report was that, Yeah, if I would have known this would have been the plan, I would have entertained the idea of going back to Minnesota on a one year deal, because at least Minnesota was upfront with him about what their plan was, and Atlanta was like, no, We're just gonna go ahead and take uh take Michael Pennock's number eight.
You know.
So that is the the quick check on all of the any any other quarterback play jump out to you guys other than Stetson Bennett, uh, you know, serving it enough a few times for the for the Rams against the Cowboys.
JJ McCarthy looked pretty good. I do.
That's the one I wonder about because there was this report that came out that they the Vikings plan is Sam Darnold will be the starter. JJ McCarthy, you know, most likely going to ride the bench. But he looked pretty good.
U he responded after.
What I liked about him is he threw an early interception and then after that he really responded with it. So it's he kind of battled through if you want to call adversity or whatever else. I was curious though, watching that preseason game. I want to see between Minshew and O'Connell if someone would have the edge, and Minshew obviously in the stat line, you know, had a little bit more than than O'Connell, but they both played decently well. So that quarterback battle's going to keep moving forward.
I think.
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio w App.
Dan Patrick Show, Fox Sports Radio, LaVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox in for Dan and the dan Ets here on this Monday morning. You could hear us Monday through Friday six to nine am Eastern Time three to six am Pacific Time on Two Pros and a Cup of Joe. It is on before the Dan Patrick Show every single weekday morning. But instead we've been asked to fill in for Dan and the guys here this morning and happy to do so here as we've got a lot to look at when it comes to the NFL. The Olympics are finally over. Also, could somebody please explain to me what the hell happened with Jordan Chiles? Like, Brady, do you do you have intel on this situation from the misses? That sucks as it.
Is one of the My mind's blown how this can happen.
So let's just go over the entire process of scoring. So scoring in gymnastics, there's execution, which is based on you start with a score of ten and then for every deduction right, it goes down from there, and then you have difficulty, which is basically you know what you know kind of routine, you have what elements of the routine are in there, and they determine a start value for you of difficulty.
So it's the.
Combination of execution based on the judges and then the difficulty of the routine. So as long as you do everything you're supposed to do in the routine. Let's just say, to make math easy, if the difficulty is a six point zero, and let's say you got eight point zero in execution, you combine the two scores to get fourteen points. Okay, that's how in essence, that's an example how scoring's done. So in this instance, for Jordan Giles, what happened was is when she did her routine, they thought her start value or her difficulty was a five point eight. Now it's actually a five point nine. Now, the reason why someone could potentially say it was a five point eight it's either by error they simply didn't know what the start value was or miscalculated or it was sure, or there's an element or a part of her routine that she didn't do.
And so the process works like this.
There's an appeal because there's three judges who will make or calculate the score for that performance. But then when you appeal, it goes to a higher judge who will then say, like, no, she did everything that was in that routine, And in this case, the judge said, basically, yeah, her start value should have been five point nine, not five point eight. Difference in that tenth of a point was the difference in her being third place, winning the bronze or fourth place. So now the Romanian I guess Olympic committee whatever their organization is, they appealed this and so they said they didn't get the appeal.
The US didn't get the appeal and in time.
So there's for some reason, there's a timing mechanism to after the athlete performs, you have only a minute or so to verbally get in your appeal, and apparently the US was four seconds late, is.
What they're saying.
Now this is this is up for debate, but I think the greater point that bothers me, not like just for Jordan Childs, but like any Olympic athlete or in this case just gymnastics, is why is there a limit on the time to appeal something like if there was clearly a mathematical air and the routine was done, that was there, you know she stated she was going to do, Like, why are you cheating her out of a medal? Then based on the fact that you didn't have the proper addition? It's it's it's mind boggled, Like this is something that really should be changed forever more moving forward. And it's not just about it being a US you know, athlete, and my wife's involved in all this. It's more because it's quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever heard for someone being having a medal taken away from them.
That sucks. Wow, heck of a way to lose your eye, because it just kind of spoils the whole thing for everybody because no matter who, because didn't they I saw that well.
And by the way, the athlete who who would be awarded the bronze medal, and no disrespect to that athlete, but they didn't earn it, Like this is more of a clerical error or or a fault within the process. Like Jordan Childs got the score, she got, she got third, she won bronze. There's no reason they should be taking that away from her. It's only because of the way this is set up, apparently with the appeal process. So instead of saying like we should go back and look at how we do scoring or how we appealed the scores, they're just like, no, we're gonna take the medal away.
It doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
So now what's the plans. I did see.
There'll there'll be an appeal for the US, and I think, based on the knowledge that I have, the US should win the appeal.
Based on the evidence that so she'll get it back, she should. Yes.
Now again I'm only speculating because of what I know, but based on the evidence that they have to support their appeal, she should be able to get it back.
Well, that's a good thing. Yeah, it's your metal back girl. Yeah.
Well, hey, don't be four seconds late though, you know, especially if Yeah, that's the that's the important part here. Well, you know, listen, and now now we put these controversies aside for another four years and la is getting the Olympics in twenty twenty eight.
Correct, that'll be fun. That'll be fun. Traffic will be real nice around here. I'm sure during that time as well too.
Well, what I saw is apparently they're trying to make sure everything everything's funneled through public transportation.
And see what I love what I saw. Yeah, well that sounds like a good idea, Mike.
Mike should try listening to lead the lap stories. You don't have a lot of people getting chased down being in front of dirty.
Bike and the boys the field day.
Yeah, by the way, I can't wait to see how how much they clean this up temporarily to make it look presentable and then as soon as everybody leaves.
Right back by the way, Lee, did you get your car cleaned?
No?
In fact, that that should be my camouflage, so nobody messes with my car.
That's actually not the camouflage. It's the you know, the track it attracts, you know that.
That's I'm more thinking that, like, honey, based on what was done in there by dirty Mike.
I've cleaned it up yet right now, I just right now, I wouldn't tape holding up my mirror.
Oh no, oh no, I wouldn't take a black life through that. That's all I'm saying.
Said he was sad walk pimping. For those of you that might be a tad bit confused. Lead the lap our producer told a story about how his car got broken into it by a couple of homeless guys and he caught him in the act. He caught one in the act. Yeah, because Joel mentioned he didn't catch the bag. Mamma, jammy, he got he got the weak link, He got the weak caught the quarter Stiller.
Yet the big bag single jingle jingle, I get the bag Stepper Lee roughed up a bum in front of a valvele Gas.
And in front of all the workers there.
So uh, I stopped an old lady from leaving the valvel into That's amazing.
Why blocked her way up? What did she do? Well? She was she was a sorry man. I gotta shake this guy down. I know you might be late for work, but uh, you know, I handle this.
She's on that guy he used to leave laptop though?
Did you see them? That's suggestent jab Yeah, dude, what what? What show was that? I forget what that is called? But idio.
So again, for those of you listening in Los Angeles, uh, in the North Hollywood area, if you do see a homeless gentleman with a nice nomadic bag and a laptop, we can assure.
You it was your nomadic That's what I'm most upset about. Yeah, that's a nice bag. Yeah, it's a really nice it really is. It'll come in handy. That guy's gounna have a uh extra compartment. That's just sturdy.
Tank.
Guy's got a canteen, a sewer rat in the side pocket like he's walking around the comfortable.
He's gonna have enough stuff to carry around his home. You know, I would consider homebo So those bags have like compartments for everything.
To say, they definitely do. Got all my flasks to dude, did he really all of them?
All the plastic game, the metal, my teealing one, my uh Jagermeister one, and yes, my plastic.
One is taking the games. Let's go on eBay and see if we see.
You got that tealing one from Ireland. I did, dude, when we were out with Dan Patrick and the gags. Oh man, that's a bomber well and my passport.
It's just like, hey, Lee, what are you gonna do if this guy all of a sudden starts impersonating he like, what does that say about you? That a hallless guy basically steal your identity?
Does not say good for I mean he does have the computer to be able to do it, you know what I mean, take out a couple of loans whatever.
The fact that this guy is going to be going through Lee's bag seeing all his flasks, going hey man, this guy's got a real problem.
Actually, Lee, what would you do if he reached out to He's like Actually I think we could be friends.
I heard that's how I met todd.
Man. Lee.
How long were you going?
Yeah?
You went in for how long?
And he left the door a few minutes, which is I got caught talking to a neighbor.
Set up? I would I would neighbors involved. Yeah, the neighbors. I can't be mad at the neighbor, but I'm kind of upset at myself. Yeah.
If I could have caught them, right, I could have caught them even more in the act.
Yeah, well I don't know if you want to catch them with that?
Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Would had you caught him in the act, what would you have done? Like, because if you really wanted to do you would have been afraid.
He would have said, hey, man.
Hey you guys doing man, give me back my quarters?
Just you know, you know, the other side was open. You could have just opened the door. He's got to break my way. He's got a rolled up job. Application they start running, No, I know.
That a bum? Is that an advertiser? It's a silver bullet. It looks like McDonald's. Oh no, run run again. Like it's just too much, man, this is just too much Lee life. It's just unbelievable. It's like you said, I love the way they plotted on it. He's like, hey, that neighborhood they.
Conspired, like they they picked him out.
They're like, hey, whatever, that guy has been picking up our poop in the sidewalk. Oh, I've seen this guy. See where we're gonna get him. I've seen what he tries.
He thinks he's one of us. Look at that car we were gonna rob last week. Oh no, oh.
No, I'll tell you that neighbor was involved. That was a setup. They were distracting you so they could get your stuff.
Was it a lady or do lady?

What's going on with h with Dion Sanders. This was from over the weekend. Apparently there was a news conference that took place in Boulder, and he just decided he had a little bit of an issue with CBS as a whole. After being asked a couple of questions here Sanders.
Eric Kristensen was CEBA Sports Colorado.
See Tylers, I'm not doing none with CBS. Next question, it's above that you got none to do with you. I got love for you, I appreciate, respect you, and got none to do with you. They know what they did.
I'm here in Denver, not national. You are who you are, CBS. The CBS all right with you. I respect you.
And that's why I told you that I'm looking at you and now as a man, I respect you.
I got love for you. But what they did was foul.
So not talking about the coaches ranking, yeah, what we're talking about. They ranked him the second to last bat like. They basically said, he's the worst coach, one of the worst coaches.
In the Big twelve Big Coach, which came from CBS Sports dot Com, which does not have anything to do with the CBS affiliate that's out there in Denver, which is why the reporter was trying to point that out to him.
Unfortunately, he was unaware of that, so That's.
What is a little bit unfortunate about it, is like this guy is just trying to do it.
You can't even do it because.
Of something that Dan's confused with, what the actual rankings where they come from.
I don't think he cared CBS with CBS in that moment that I just felt like, to me.
Works.
I think the whole, the whole idea of it. I think just this is just me one person's opinion. I think he could have handled it differently than what he did. Certainly could have handled because if you're going to go out of your way to tell him how much you love him and you respect them and you appreciate him, then you could have handled it. I would at least said, like explain it, like you know what you did, okay, but just explain it, you know what I mean, Like have the back and forth about like why you feel that way. Even though people I guess know I would have still I just would have handled that one differently. Like you are. You are the head coach of the team. Everybody isn't going to write and say and do things that you're going to like. I mean, that just is what it is. I mean, you are prime people love you, but they are there are going to be people that take swipes at you and listen, if you don't like it, you can fix it. That's that's how it is. And and on the playing field competing, you don't like it, you can fix it. I just don't I don't know that you get so butt hurt that you don't want to do you don't want to do the interview. It does feel like it's open season on Prime in Colorado.
Yeah.
But here's the thing that people I think miss sometimes with Beat reporters, which obviously this guy is working for CBS Denver, you know, Dion Colorbado. Is a huge story oftentimes that people who are Beat reporters are like fans. There are sometimes the lums of the of the university in this case, but they're they're ultimately fans of the school. They're fans of the team, like they're you know, really, you kind of should look at it more as like your media arm like you're you're I mean, unbiased at least the on how it looks. But and I don't know how LaVar if you experienced that, but I always felt like all the Beat reporters that I was around, regardless of whatever team I played for in the NFL the well, but they want you to do well, but they want you to win so they can write about it like they're along for the ride too. If Colorado wins, the Big Twelve goes to the playoff, like they're going to like that makes their season more fun and more memorable, and that's why they're a part of it.
So I just don't understand, and I don't.
Understand why you're going to ostracize those people who are there supporting you, like hoping that you're turning it around, you know, and trying to you know right, you know, do their job to write the stories of the coach the players, because that's the other thing too, is you know, who knows what he was going to talk about or ask about, but it then steals away an opportunity for him to talk about one of the young many coaches, which is really what it should be all about.
I just feel like sports is like everybody loves the ultimate underdog, right, use that to your advantage. Don't don't make people like feel like I'm not rooting for this dude like it. Maybe he doesn't care because his popularity is so high at this point, I don't know, but like to me, it's like, okay, like CBS, yep, y'all said, I'm basically a trash a trash head coach, Like y'all got me second to last in rankings a Big twelve coaches Like, Okay, I see y'all and I appreciate that motivation, and I appreciate y'all giving me you know what y'all feel I'm deserving of, Like, let's see what we can do, you know what I mean? Like to me, I felt like that would have played so far and so deep into building continuing to build this brand of overachiever for Dion as as a head coach. I felt like it was a missed opportunity. I mean, what do you think Kenny Dillingham thinks he was last. There was some off brand schools on there too. And then the fact that you can't say, well, it's it's a Big twelve thing because you rank a Utah team number one, you rank Utah state number one, Well, Utah, but Utah Utah?
Yeah, I mean what they are in the Big twelve now, yeah.
They are right, but it's a former Pac twelve school, Yeah, Kyle Woodingham's stud Yeah, So there you go, and.
They are the favorite to win it, which I do wonder how much that plays a little bit of a factor in it.
I think that I think that that is super offensive. If you're Dion Sanders, well, you.
Have to understand they're near the conference too, right right.
I love it they just left the same conference, just like I.
Just love the fact that he's It's prime. Like, he will throw down with Andre Ryzen on the field. He will dump ice on Tim McCarver post game after a playoff game. He will he will make rap videos. He will do what he pleases. And if he doesn't like that CBS did this, everybody at CBS affiliate or not gets astray.
There's no connection. I feel bad for that guy.
Like, I mean, I obviously work for CBS Sports, right, Like I want to work for CBS Sports dot com. Like he could technically plump me into that. I'm like, I didn't write this, I didn't vote on any of this. I don't even know who wrote the article.
