[Dan Patrick]

It's only natural. You see, these golfers mistaken the true green lawns for an actual golf course. Have you noticed that?

[Todd]

Come on.

[Dan Patrick]

No, no, I'm serious. They're the official lawn care treatment provider, the PGA Tour. So they know what it takes to get golf course quality lawns.

[Seaton]

So you're saying we could host a tournament out back?

[Dan Patrick]

Well, yeah, I guess we can. Get your own golf course quality [e-mail] trugreen.com let the pros handle the lawn. Just don't be surprised when golfers show up.

[Todd]

I can't tell you how many times I've spilled something on my shirt right before walking out the door. And it's always while I'm wearing a white shirt too. And somehow that's the exact moment I realize I'm out of stain remover and I don't have another clean shirt to change into. Unpredictable moments like that are part of everyday life. Luckily, Amazon helps make it easier to manage life's curveballs from unexpected needs to everyday essentials. Amazon offers everything in one place with reliable value and great prices. So when a small mess turns into a last minute problem, Amazon makes it easier by saving the every day.

[Dan Patrick]

All right guys, two words for you. Prostate exam. Yeah, you just clenched up a little bit. Are you imagining the finger right now? Yeah, relax. Prostate cancer screening starts with a simple finger free blood test. Around one in eight men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. But that's no reason to re clench when caught early. At localized or even regional stages, prostate cancer can have over a 99% five year relative survival rate. Did your tight end just relax? Good. If you're over 40, 40 or older and have a prostate visit, relax. It's a blood test.com you'll find out if a PSA blood test is right for you. The PSA blood test can be the first step in screening. Talk to your doctor to evaluate your risk, determine when to get tested and discuss screening options and the next steps. Sponsored by Novartis. You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. Thoughts and prayers thank you. We made it. Traumatic time yesterday. My thanks to the big German. He is an certified firefighter and EMS and came to the rescue yesterday as I lit some incense and forgot to blow it out. And we had flames, we had smoke, we had a fire alarm. But everybody is okay. And, you know, usually what happens. Women and children first. It was Fritzy. Women and children first. And, Todd, your 40 yard dash time was pretty impressive yesterday.

[Marvin]

I totally obliterated any previous record. From here to the parking lot Stat

[Dan Patrick]

of the day, brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show. By the way, the big German said, I'm going to get you an incense burner. You're not going to be putting. I was putting incense into a candle holder, and it burned down. And there are other stems from the incense that caught fire. And then we had smoke, and then we had fire. But everybody's okay. We survived. We learned a lesson yesterday. I thought it was a little overly dramatic to stop, drop, and roll that. The big German said, and he came in with his axe. He was going to actually chop down my door. And I said, no, just turn the knob. Yes.

[Seaton]

I am trying to figure out how the incense started a candle fire. Like those things sound like while the incense lit the candle on fire. Candles are supposed to be on fire.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, no, the. I have a bunch of stems from previous incense in there. Ah, like kindling. Yeah. So almost like a forest and it's, you know, just chopped down with a bunch of, you know, trees in there.

[Seaton]

Those are the things that caught on fire.

[Dan Patrick]

They caught on fire. I see. Yes.

[Seaton]

Understood.

[Dan Patrick]

And I. I kind of joked, and I said, did the morning shows pick this up? And Paulie said he was going to check, and then all of a sudden, I find out that Harvey Levin and tmz, they. They did a full report on this, as well they should have, because, you know, hall of fame broadcaster nearly perished yesterday. Paulie, do you have the headline from tmz?

[Paulie]

Of course I do. It's in my inbox every morning. TMZ sports, fire in the hole, studio up in smoke on air. The Dan Patrick show. Forget Hot takes. The damn Package show had actual flames coming out of the studio.

[Dan Patrick]

That's well said, and I appreciate that. But, Harvey, thank you for reaching out just to make sure everybody was okay. Yes.

[Marvin]

Todd, you also said we learned a lesson, which I thought was an interesting choice of words, by the way.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, it's kind of like you with the Broncos. It's we. Okay, right? Like we. When. When we Win the sports Emmy. It's not me.

[Marvin]

It's not someone burns the place down. We, as a group, burnt it down. Even though you specifically lit some.

[Dan Patrick]

We all take credit. We all take blame. Fair enough. Okay, thanks for clarification. Thank you. Yes, yes, Paul, back to the TMZ piece.

[Paulie]

My favorite part of it in paragraph four. And this was tweeted out to millions of people, by the way. As the crew scrambled, the big German, AKA Erik Jones, behind the scenes staffer, who Patrick revealed as a certified firefighter in ems, bolted into the equipment room to assess the situation.

[Dan Patrick]

He did. He bolted in. He was very calm.

[Paulie]

Is the big German right now the most famous firefighter in America right now? Breakout day.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know who his competition would be.

[Paulie]

That's the point.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I would say he's. He's pretty. Now, if President Trump invites him to the White House and gets him, you know, a medal of freedom, maybe fire prevention week.

[Jay Glazer]

Okay.

[Dan Patrick]

You know, he brings Eric German. Eric, the big German to the White House. Yes, Todd.

[Marvin]

If a goalie can get it, then granted it was a great win over Canada. Why wouldn't the big Germans get it? He, like, saved our lives.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Conor Hellebach didn't save lives. Big German save lives yesterday. But thank you. Thank you for the thoughts and the prayers, flowers. There's wreaths out there, you know, that they put by the door, but everybody's good. And my thanks to the big German. He came in, came to the rescue. Get ready. College hoops is about to take over. Of course, they've been playing basketball for a few months now. But now's when we turn our attention to college basketball. And watching last night, I was watching Duke put on another impressive performance there and blowing people out, by the way. And then we started to wonder about this. When you look at certain players and then you go, boy, that name sounds familiar. And you go, you know, Cam, Boozer, Carlos Boozer, you know, the father son combination here. And then you start to go down the list, and it feels like, go back to when Chris Long was the number one pick in the draft and he was out of Virginia. And his dad, of course, Howie Long, a Hall of Famer. And if you're looking for that lineage and you're going, that's probably a pretty safe pick because Chris Long turned out to be a pretty good football player. You can trust the. The jeans there. But, you know, Steph and Seth Curry and Del Curry, Klay Thompson, Michael Thompson, Joe Kim, Noah and Yannick. Noah Yannick was a very talented Tennis player. Kobe and Joe Bryant, Peyton Archie and Eli Manning. Patrick Mahomes, and his father was a relief pitcher. You got Christian McCaffrey, and then you got Ed McCaffrey, Barry Bonds, Bobby Bonds, Ken Griffey Jr. Ken Griffey, Bo Bichette, Dante Bichette. And then you got the Boozers. But you have the Boozer twins. So you have one twin who's maybe the number one pick in the draft. And then his brother is like six inches. How are you Twins? And he's six inches shorter. Kaden Boozer is six inches shorter. And I'm thinking, how does that happen? You know, one's going to be, you know, probably the first or so. I'm looking at the odds here, and it's Debancer right now is maybe the second pick. You got Patterson at Kansas. Who might be the first pick? Peterson. I don't know why I keep calling him Patterson, but he is Darren Peterson. He is expected to be the number one pick in the draft. At least those are the. The odds. But I'm watching last night, and you're seeing a Duke team that's blowing people out. I think their last three wins, last three games, they won by 99 points total. And here are the odds. So, number one overall pick, Darren Peterson, minus 120. AJ Debanza, plus 1 20. Cameron Boozer, plus 650. Kingston Flemings, plus 12,000. Caleb Wilson, plus 12,000. Yes. Paul.

[Paulie]

Cameron Boozer for Duke. He looks about 22 years old. I checked. He's. He's 18. Like, not. Not 19 in a week or so. And it's not the Greg Odin thing. Like, he looks like a grown man, physically. He's got the full beard going. They don't look like freshmen anymore, some of these guys, the thin freshmen of our past.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, he's ready to go. And Coach Kashevsky, of course, probably playing to the home crowd saying that Boozer is the best freshman in America. And he might be. He's going to go in and play right away. But here is Coach K. Talking about Boozer.

[Jay Glazer]

To me, it's not close. This kid is so dependable, so poised

[Dan Patrick]

and puts up amazing numbers and accuracy in passing and rebounding, and he sets a physical tone for our team that

[Jay Glazer]

another team has to match. He said, really as good a year as any freshman that has played here,

[Dan Patrick]

and that's saying an awful lot. But Duke roughed up North Carolina State to clinch the accident, and they're the number one team in the country. Duke has won its last three games by combined 99 points. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program. Arizona, number two team in the country, beat Iowa State. Iowa State is sixth and they roughed him up 73, 57 clinch the Big 12 regular season title. It's still strange to say that Arizona, Big 12. But now here's something that I was not aware of, but Tommy Lloyd, head coach at Arizona, won his 140th game of his career. That's the most by any coach in his first five years in NCAA history. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Here comes here that what? Stat of the day. Alrighty. We'll get phone calls coming up. Operator Tyler, sitting by. Ross Tucker, our good buddy, will stop by in 10 minutes. Reggie Miller, final hour of the show. Roger Bennett, men in blazers, has a new book out about the World Cup. Always great to have him. He's always a hit. Twitter @DP Show Email Address DP danpatrick.com come up with a poll question for the first hour of the program. College basketball has become the following. It's like there's a restaurant that changes its menu every single day, so you don't know what you're getting. That's college basketball. Every single year, it's, hey, you want to go to that restaurant? What do they serve? Who knows? But it'll be great. It'll be fun, it'll be exciting, it'll be dangerous. That's what college basketball is. Every year it's like, oh, and so what's the menu? I don't know. Who knows? But come on in, take a chance on it. It's not good for college basketball to not have a little bit of familiarity. You know, the women's game, you get those players who are playing four years and the familiarity with men's basketball. You're just going to be introduced to some of these players and it's going to be time for them to move on. Purdue, it feels like it's like a barber shop quartet. You know, they. They've been there for a while.

[Paulie]

Their mascot should be a musket.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, you'. How long you guys been together? I don't know. I lost track, but got a couple of guys who've been there. Feels like five or six years. They're a really good team. And of course, we talk guard play, senior guard play. That's always important. And, and get ready. Get ready for that rush of Jay Billis and Seth Greenberg and telling us, you know, who to keep an eye on that 8, 9 matchup, the 12, 5 matchup, all of those. Barkley may be watching some college basketball. Who knows? Is he involved in the coverage this year? Are they doing anything with ESPN or cbs? Yes. Yes, Marvin.

[Todd]

I don't think so because they're with ESPN now. But Nate Burleson is on coverage for the ncaa.

[Dan Patrick]

I know, I saw that. Yeah. CBS Mornings, NFL Today. Now he's going to do college basketball. I'm not sure who. I always got a kick out of watching Barkley on the selection Sunday because Charles watched as much. He watched less basketball, college basketball than I did. But he'd be up there telling you, you know, it'd be Wisconsin, Stevens Point or something. And Charles trying to tell you something. I would love to have seen what it was like when they weren't on camera trying to force feed them information. And I thought CBS went about it in the wrong way because they didn't know college basketball. But Clark Kellogg knew all about college basketball. I wanted Kenny and Shaq and Charles to be off talking about topics. Not necessarily breaking down the starting lineup for Marist College, but it was entertaining. It probably not in the way they designed it to be. Be sure to catch the live edition of the Dan Patrick show weekdays at 9:00am Eastern, 6:00am on Fox Sports Radio in the iHeartRadio app.

No, I mean we could make. Yeah, I guess we can. If Trugreen's doing all the work. No one makes it easier. They handle the treatments, the timing, everything.

[Paulie]

I feel like you see them everywhere.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. Beautiful lawns. And you know it's true Green America's number one lawn care company. And chances are they're already in your neighborhood.

[Todd]

Nobody really prepares you for this part of life. When I had some guests stay with me recently, I realized I was missing a few key essentials. I hate when that happens. Really? No more paper towels. Down to the last pigs in a blanket. So soon? I didn't want to interrupt our time together by running to the store or give off the impression that I was unprepared for my guests. Moments like that are a perfect example of how everyday life can surprise you. Some days go as planned and other days, well, life throws curveballs. It's not always convenient. That's why I went straight to Amazon. Amazon helps make it easier to manage both the routine and the unexpected. From household basics to last minute replacements you like to have on hand. To be a great host, Amazon makes it so you can find everything that you need all in one place with reliable value and great prices. So when you run out of essentials right when the party's about to start, Amazon makes it easier to focus on your guests. Talk about saving the day I got

[Dan Patrick]

the odds from DraftKings this morning because I thought, well, the Rams were busy yesterday. What does that mean for their Super bowl odds? DraftKings has the Rams as the favorite plus 750, followed by the defending Super bowl champion Seahawks at plus 900. Then you have the Bills at plus 1000, followed by the Ravens Eagles. Also the Chiefs are in there after making this big trade. So the Eagles, Chiefs and packers all at plus 1400. And the Rams over under went from 10 and a half to 11 and a half yesterday after they made the trade for defensive back Trent McDuffie. This was a great move, I think by both teams. The Rams looked like a finished product last. Last year you had Matthew Stafford mvp, you had wide receivers, couple of really good defensive linemen. But the problem was the secondary. LA surrendered an average of 31 points in their losses last season. Mac Jones and Sam Darnold both threw for over 340 yards against the Rams. Bryce Young and Jalen Hurts threw a combined six touchdown against this defense. So Sean McVeigh and Les Snead, the GM decided we can't ignore the evidence any longer. So they traded for Trent McDuffie with the Kansas City Chiefs. So the Rams are in a win now mode. And why not? You have an elite cornerback now. Now you can say, all right, Trent, there's your guy you got in Jigba. You got to take him. And this is going to help out immensely with that defensive line because now you got a guy that you can put single coverage on some of the best receivers, but elite corners are rarely available. But you're chasing a Super bowl in your own division, chasing the defending champs, and you still have the Niners twice a year as well. But McDuffie is going to change the game for them. He's going to change matchups. And for a team already near the top, I like what they did. They want to stay on top of that mountain. But looking back at some of these games, week three, Jalen Hurts, three touchdowns, no interceptions. A.J. brown had 109 receiving yards. And then you had two weeks later against the Niners. Mac Jones throws for 340 yards, two touchdowns. Kendrick Bourne had 10 catches for 142 yards. Bryce Young in week 13, three touchdown passes. Then you had week 16, Sam Darnold, he goes for two hundred and seventy yards. They lost to the Falcons, but nothing really notable as far as wide receivers there. And then the Seahawks in the playoffs. Sam Darnold, three touchdown passes over 340 yards. And JSN had 10 catches for 150. Now you got a guy who's going to make you a whole lot better. And it will come down to this. It's still Matthew Stafford. If Matthew Stafford is able to stay upright for 17 weeks, rams are the team to be. I thought they were the team to beat last year, but look, they had a glaring weakness and I love the fact that they were aggressive. You give up a lot. And I thought, well, Kansas City is getting rid of a 25 year old defensive back. Now you're going to, somebody's going to have to pay him and he's going to make $25 million a year probably. But the Rams looking at this and saying, maybe we have a two year window with Matthew Stafford, let's go get it again. And they certainly went out and did that. The fact that they're going from 10 and a half to 11 and a half, no other team right now has a win total over under of 11 and a half. The Rams are the first team to get there. So that was yesterday. That was fun and a little bit surprising. But we'll talk some football. Your phone call is always welcome. Come up with a poll question as well. We have baseball going on somewhere in the world with the world baseball. Well, it is called the World Baseball Classic and USA versus Brazil on Friday. Plan accordingly. Lou Holtz passed away yesterday. He was in hospice for a while, age 89. And if you weren't around when he was at Notre Dame, you don't understand the magnitude of heat, what he did, what the impact that he had on college football. He was one of the faces, one of the voices, very entertaining and he brought Notre Dame a national championship. But if you were ever around him, he was, he was a guy who's going to entertain you had a lot of great stories and he loved to share those. But he was more than just Notre Dame's head coach. He coached a variety of places and I don't think he's in the, the hall of Fame. I, you know, maybe check that, Paulie. I don't know if Lou Holtz is in the College Football hall of Fame, which would surprise me, but somebody was talking about that to me yesterday.

[Paulie]

Yes, Paul, he was inducted in the College Football hall of fame in 2008.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, good. Okay. Yeah, because I know Digger Phelps, Notre Dame basketball coach, is not in the hall of Fame. Now that's the Basketball hall of Fame. But for Lou Holtz, he was, as Paulie said, a pisser. Like he, he wasn't afraid to give you an Opinion tweak you a little bit, yell at the officials and, you know, you start to look at Notre Dame football. They've had a lot of great coaches there. Nobody more is charismatic, as charismatic as Lou Holtz. But at age 89, and he became a great analyst, a fun analyst. He was with Mark May, with the mothership, Reese Davis. Reese tells a great story. He played with Lou Holtz at Augusta. Lou was a member of Augusta, and I think when he was at South Carolina, part of his deal when he was coaching there is he got a membership to Augusta. And later in his life, he couldn't really hit it very far. I don't know if he could ever hit it very far. But the fact that he took Reese Davis, Jay Billis, and I think Mark May to Augusta, and he told this story to Scott Van Pelt last night. But the par 3 12th, he would lay up. Now, yes, he would lay up on a hole that was 149 yards. And what he would do is he'd hit it before it got to Ray's Creek, and then he would chip up and, you know, sometimes he would end up with a parent. But he loved playing there. He loved bringing people there, and he would. He would chip up and right before the creek. So he probably hit it 120 yards and then he would chip it onto the green on a par three. But Rhys Davis tells the story that Lou Holtz won a bet with Mark May, and he had just had neck surgery. Lou had. And they were going to get a picture because Mark had to give him the money that he won on this bet. And Lou goes, hold on, hold on, hold on. He goes into the clubhouse, he gets his neck brace that he's supposed to be wearing, and he comes out for the picture. To make it even more like, how did you let a guy in a neck brace beat you in golf? Mark May. But that was Lou. He was always one step ahead. And at age of 89, he lived a very, very eventful life. Seaton, what's poll question today?

[Seaton]

We got two of them here. We might as well start with the Lou Holtz pole question. One of his most famous quotes, Dan, that you love is they put their pants on the same way that we do.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Seaton]

So it got me to thinking. When you are putting your pants on, left leg first, right leg first, or are you not sure? I want to see if we all actually put our pants on the same way.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. This was Lou's, you know, famous quote that he would say to his players just to make it you know, like, hey, they put their pants on same way we do. We can go out and beat these guys.

[Seaton]

So are you a left leg first or a right leg first, or are you not sure?

[Dan Patrick]

I'm left leg.

[Seaton]

Say I'm right leg.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Seaton]

And my right leg always goes in first.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. I go left. Yeah. Paulie.

[Paulie]

I'm a two and jump guy. I put both feet in simultaneously. Pull and jump. It cuts off tons of time. Probably bought me an extra year of life.

[Seaton]

I think you learned that when you were 4, if I'm not mistaken, too.

[Paulie]

Probably I do. The edge of the bed, two feet in, pull, jump, just snap. You kids out there don't try it without parental supervision.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. And a snap, you wouldn't jump.

[Paulie]

I used to be left leg, right leg. Because right leg, left leg. You're a maniac.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. I'd be nervous, though. Degree of difficulty. Yes. Todd.

[Marvin]

I wonder how many people, like me, anyway, need to lean up against the wall or be in a seated position to put their pants down. Says a lot about your abs and I think your general core. Do you need to be, like, laying down or sitting or up against a wall to put your pants on?

[Dan Patrick]

How old are you?

[Marvin]

I am 56.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Seaton]

And you have to be seated to put your pants on?

[Marvin]

I prefer. It's more comfortable for me to be in a sitting position on the bed or up against the wall or just have some kind of fulcrum to help me get my pants on.

[Dan Patrick]

Did you say fulcrum?

[Jay Glazer]

Fulcrum.

[Dan Patrick]

I'm gonna. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that's the first time fulcrum has ever been used on.

[Marvin]

I don't even know if I'm using it right, but it just sounds like a cool word.

[Paulie]

Fulcrum is a pivot point or hinge.

[Marvin]

Yeah. For me, just, you know, just standing up and putting my pants. You know, I feel something in my lower back or my quad or something like that. Or a hamstring. I like to kind of. I need something to kind of lean on.

[Dan Patrick]

How about you, Marvin?

[Todd]

Right leg, Left leg.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, that's fine. Anything else that we want to ponder with a poll question here?

[Jay Glazer]

2.

[Dan Patrick]

And jump.

[Seaton]

And Todd needs a fulcrum. This is. This is producing way more than I could have ever.

[Marvin]

I like to be propped up a little bit for the putting on of the.

[Paulie]

I like to live on the edge.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Seaton]

Here's one from here. 1. Switching up topics a little bit. Here's one from Todd. That's funny. This is the miles Garrett, poll question. How many speeding tickets would you need to get in less than 10 years to start slowing down? 3, 5, 7, or at least 9.

[Dan Patrick]

So he has nine speeding tickets in the last. Since 2017, I believe. So how do you keep your license? I know you just pay a fine, but don't you get points? Don't they. Don't you accumulate enough points that you get your license suspended?

[Marvin]

At least he's not in the public eye, where no one's going to find out about. He can just kind of, like, live under.

[Dan Patrick]

Thank you.

[Seaton]

I wonder how bad of a speeding ticket it has to be. Like, if you're always. You know. What is that saying? Like eight, you're great. Nine, Your mind or whatever. If you're always at, like, nine to ten miles an hour over where it's

[Dan Patrick]

really not that big of a deal, or he's not.

[Seaton]

Oh, it's a significant. Oh, yeah, got it.

[Dan Patrick]

He was clocked going 94 and a 70.

[Seaton]

That's excessive.

[Dan Patrick]

He was clocked going 100 in a 60.

[Seaton]

That is excessive.

[Dan Patrick]

Let's see.

[Seaton]

Reckless, you might say.

[Paulie]

He's a Miles Garrett of speeders.

[Dan Patrick]

Miles per hour.

[Seaton]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

65 in a 45.

[Seaton]

That's too fast.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, but don't you get points against you and your license and you get a certain number of points, and then your license gets suspended.

[Seaton]

What do you think his insurance is? It's got to be astronomical.

[Dan Patrick]

I hope he's bundling with Liberty Mutual.

[Paulie]

Reach out to him.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes.

[Marvin]

What is the motivation, you think, for excessive speeding? You think it's cool you're in a big rush all the time? You like the feel?

[Dan Patrick]

How about you tell me? Don't know.

[Marvin]

I don't really speed much. I'm the one that gets in trouble because I'm going too slow in the left lane. So I have to defer to you guys.

[Dan Patrick]

So what are my options here?

[Marvin]

It's very cool to go fast. I like how it feels to be in a car that's going fast. I'm in a big rush. I'm very important, and I have to get somewhere as quickly as possible, even at the risk of injuring or killing other people on the road, because I have to just get there fast.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know what his motivation is. I've never gotten a speeding ticket.

[Seaton]

You've never gotten a speeding ticket?

[Dan Patrick]

No. Yeah.

[Paulie]

Paulie, I think with someone like Miles Garrett or anyone who has a sports car. I'm looking at his car. It's a $300,000 sports car. It's meant to be driven fast and it's not meant to be on normal roadways. There must be almost like a tick that says, I bought this car, I'm going to stretch it out. Which it's wrong, but I think that's the motivation.

[Dan Patrick]

And Shador Sanders, maybe it's something about the Cleveland Browns that he got to

[Seaton]

get out of there as fast as

[Dan Patrick]

he can get it.

[Seaton]

Now it makes sense.

[Dan Patrick]

Shador was arrested. Well, he got a ticket a couple of times, I think in his first year in Cleveland.

[Marvin]

Yes, Todd, if you're not showing off, then why can't you just. He's got the money. Rent some time on a racetrack. If you feel a need to go really fast and circle. So you're putting other people in danger. And how much it costs to go to the Daytona or wherever you have to go, just do that. Unless again, you want to show off your car and how fast you can drive, then that's a whole other story. Yeah, I said it. Look at me and look at my fancy expensive car and how fast I'm driving.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Marvin]

I dare you to pull me over. I'm Miles Garrett.

[Dan Patrick]

If Miles Garrett came on the show,

[Marvin]

I would say that.

[Dan Patrick]

You would.

[Marvin]

Yeah. Only because you're putting other people's lives in danger because you have to drive your expensive car. Fest.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, those are, you know, when you go a Hyundai in a 60 on the highway. Okay. I mean that, that to me, I got to take away your license, I would think. But I, once again, I, I grew up in Ohio, but I don't, I don't know what the laws are anymore with what happens when you get a speeding ticket. I thought that that counted as points. And if you got to a certain number of points, then they took away your license. Or at least I remember that happening to a couple of my friends who might have been drinking and driving as well. Yes, Paul.

[Paulie]

I'm on the Ohio DMV website, of course, Dan, and they do have a point system. And if you go over 12 points for various infractions in a two year period, you get a six month suspended license. So apparently.

[Dan Patrick]

But if you get caught speeding, it in Ohio, does that are those points that go on your license?

[Paulie]

It also says if you have 15 plus sacks and our defensive player of the year, all rules are waived. It's in the fine print.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, but they still, they, they give him a ticket. It's not like they let him go. Yeah, I mean you still have to pay a fine. He doesn't have to go to court. I don't think in there a like a miles per hour margin where you go, I think you're going to have to go see the judge for that one.

[Seaton]

Definitely.

[Dan Patrick]

Right.

[Seaton]

You don't want to get a speeding ticket where they're like, okay, and so your car stays here and you're coming with us. That's, that's a very bad speeding ticket.

[Dan Patrick]

One you do want. But 40 miles an hour over the speed limit.

[Seaton]

Excessive.

[Dan Patrick]

[Todd]

Come on.

[Dan Patrick]

No, no, I'm serious. Happens all the time. And you know, they're the official lawn care treatment provider, the PGA Tour, so they know what it takes to get golf course quality lawns.

[Seaton]

So you're saying we could host a tournament out back?

[Dan Patrick]

No, I mean we could make. Yeah, I guess we can. If True Green's doing all the work, no one makes it easier. They handle the treatments, the timing, everything.

[Paulie]

I feel like you see them everywhere.

[Seaton]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

Beautiful lawns. And you know it's True Green, America's number one lawn care Company. And chances are they're already in your neighborhood.

I'll play, but I'm not mowing.

Nobody really prepares you for this part of life. When I had some guests stay with me recently, I realized I was missing a few key essentials. I hate when that happens. Really? No more paper towels. Down to the last pigs in a blanket. So soon? I didn't want to interrupt our time together by running to the store or give off the impression that I was unprepared for my guests. Moments like that are a perfect example of how everyday life can surprise you. Some days go as planned, and other days, well, life throws curve balls. It's not always convenient. That's why I went straight to Amazon. Amazon helps make it easier to manage both the routine and the unexpected. From household basics to last minute replacements, you like to have on hand to be a great host. Amazon makes it so you can find everything that you need all in one place with reliable value and great prices. So when you run out of essentials right when the party's about to start, Amazon makes it easier to focus on your guests. Talk about saving the day.

[Dan Patrick]

Let me start with the Aaron Rodgers appearance on Pat McAfee yesterday. I don't know if he. Hello?

[Jay Glazer]

What's going on?

[Dan Patrick]

No, we don't know. No, no, no, no, no. Got.

[Jay Glazer]

Do a little foreplay with me. Come on, man. We just spent a week in Panama together. I got no love.

[Dan Patrick]

I did. I did foreplay in Panama with you. You and your lovely wife.

[Jay Glazer]

Hey, I even went to a church with you guys and Panama for. For Ash Wednesday. I'm a Jewish guy. I know.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, we were going to dinner, and it was Ash Wednesday, and my wife was like, I gotta go get my ashes. And all of a sudden, we dragged Jay into the church.

[Jay Glazer]

No, no, no. I volunteered.

[Dan Patrick]

No, I don't learn.

[Jay Glazer]

I want to learn.

[Dan Patrick]

So we go in, and then, you know, I'm thinking, you're gonna walk up and get your ashes. And I go, I don't think you should do that, Jay.

[Jay Glazer]

I don't think so. It doesn't matter how many different religion, like, you know, temples, church, mosques I go to. There's not enough time to, you know, atone for my sins. Yeah, I didn't want to bother them with that.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, so great to See you, Jay buddy.

[Jay Glazer]

There we go. Okay.

[Dan Patrick]

Feeling great. Feeling. Feeling great.

[Jay Glazer]

I got my shoulder again this time, man. I feel fantastic.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, well, yeah, I really do. How about you stop fighting people?

[Jay Glazer]

Why would I do that?

[Dan Patrick]

Well, I don't know. You're getting older and your body is gonna. I mean, now you're age. Shaming me,

[Jay Glazer]

you know? I know people always ask me, like, why do I still do this stuff? I'd rather that kill me than I die from not doing it. Like, I gotta do it.

[Marvin]

I just.

[Jay Glazer]

It's the. You know, I always talk about. I need teams and teams, and for here, between my years, these teams, and I just. Man, I love having those teams. Whether it's training players or my MMA guys. My old guys, we're getting older now, so we're being a little smarter with what we do in our heads, but just training players, you know. The guy I really took on this year, full time, if you will, was A.J. barner, who did a great job, obviously, with Seattle, but you don't find guys like that as much anymore. Like, players are different now than they used to be. When I used to train, you know, so many guys in the offseason, and you always tell these guys, like, being famous ain't the same as being great. And a lot of these guys just come in now because they're so famous. They don't have a need to be great. They don't put that same work in AJ did. Aj, man, he just. He even came out during the bye week for a little tuneup, which guys normally don't do. But I just. I love it, dude. If I could help make somebody better, you know, that. That helps me again here. That's why.

[Dan Patrick]

Give me the current NFL player who you think could be great in ufc.

[Jay Glazer]

Oh, Miles Garrett. I trained the Browns for, like, a month, but Miles put his hands on me. That sucked. That was terrible, man. That was awful. Mercedes Lewis, if he still qualifies here, I've had him for about 17 years. Mercedes throws kicks and, you know, jiu jitsu, everything. He's. He's, like, really a student of it. I always said, like, he's not current, but Kyle Long was a. He's. You know, if. If I didn't ever wrestle Kyle Long, I would be at least five, seven and a half now. But I'm trying to think current guys who just feel really violent. Yeah, there's not a. Oh, Max Crosby. Max, actually, legitimately. He legitimately trains,

[Dan Patrick]

by the way. You see is he's done with the Raiders.

[Jay Glazer]

I don't see him coming back, but, you know, it's up to the Raiders. Yeah, they're the ones who hold the cards in this right now.

[Dan Patrick]

But he could. I guess he could retire and force their hands.

[Jay Glazer]

Yeah, he can. But, you know, he loves football. He's. You know, it was interesting. We. When I talk about guys, you know, want to be great and, you know, trying to be great instead of famous, when he came out to my gym to train, it was like I said, we're starting at 5:45, right? And I'm like, 5:45 in the morning? He's like, yeah, that's what time I started. I'm like, hey, dude, I'm. I come at 11. Okay, so we're going 11, 5:45. He's like, well, I started 5:45. And sure enough, 5:45 every day goes in their trains, and he does, you know, prehab and, you know, stretching and mobility and speed and agility and lifts. And then we do the MMA part. And then after that, he does a little bit more strength, let's say, and then more hips and then rehab and, you know, all this treatment and stuff. And it was every day, man, it was like 5:45 in the morning to, like, 2 or 3. And that's where you. That's what you look for. Like, all the guys that we're friends with back in the day, that's the only way they got famous to be great. The only way to be great back then is to outwork the world. I tell. I tell you guys the blueprint for greatness. It's not hard find out who the best is and do more than them, but most people just aren't willing to do it. I haven't asked him how many of you guys, like, do this with. He's like, oh, I offer it to everybody, but they don't. And that's like today's athlete. That's not how they're wired, but all the great ones, that's how they're wired, right? And it's. It. I just never got it. I never understood if that's what you have to do, just put in more work. You don't necessarily have to be more talented. Why don't you? And it's like, if you. If you have a full NFL career, you retired. 32. Think about that, Dan. And people years. 32. Right. It's young. You go out there and do whatever you want after that, 34. It's young. I just never got it.

[Dan Patrick]

Do you think Micah Parsons wants to be famous? More than he wants to be great.

[Jay Glazer]

No, I think it's. But I think that's today's athlete. I definitely think he wants to be great. But, yeah, I think without a doubt. Like, when you have podcasts, you know, with your own teammates, right, about your team and stuff during the season, things like that. Look, I was around Strahan, right? It would be like the first of these guys. And, you know, he drove me back in New York City every day when I was too broke to, you know, be able to pay for that subway and bus fare back and forth. And football was always first, first, first by a mile. He fit the other stuff in when it. When he was okay with it. But football was for. He did so much film work and so much work and. And, like, extra work, extra work, extra work. And everybody thought of the other way. It was never the other way. I don't think it's the other way for Mike either, but just seems so much bigger, kind of all the other stuff he does.

[Dan Patrick]

All right, let's run down some of these situations. Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers.

[Jay Glazer]

I. I don't think he's there yet here, and I haven't talked to him. I saw him on PAT yesterday. I haven't talked to him for a while. You know, we trained together last offseason, so I don't know where his mindset is. I do love what he said about Mike, and he's like, Mike is. McCarthy is, man. I. I told him at the combine, I said, the Unicoach, that Packers, Cowboys, and now the Steelers, your hometown team. And, like, his parents are right there in front, like, the front row. And he's like, I couldn't get past, like, three words without crying. Like, he grew up right around the corner. I said, so you coach these three teams, Mike, I don't know who you were in a previous life, but God has blessed you. I think you're like Jonas Salk and polio. Here's your reward. It's unbelievable. But the fact that he appreciates Mike this much now was really good to see, because Mike is great. You got to remember, people forget. It was so bad on Aaron when they decided, okay, we're not going to. And I was. I was right there through all this stuff with that when Favre kept retiring, unretiring, Retiring, unretir. Retiring, unretiring. And finally the end. They're like, hey, we're going with Aaron. There was people picketing outside Lambo that they didn't want Aaron there. This kid, this youngster. And for him to be able to deal with this and become the guy he became. That's why Jordan Love also has much stronger mental health than anybody gives him credit for to be able to deal with that to replace Aaron. But man, Aaron, they were picking their flying helicopters and planes over and, and look at the, the year he had that year and the career after that. And that's because Mike really is a. He's great with developing guys like that. He do with him what he do with Dak and whoever he's going to be able to develop over there in, in Pittsburgh. I don't know who that is right now. I know they like Will Howard, but I don't know if that's their long term. He's not really, he hasn't been around him enough to really know that. But I think if Aaron wants to come back and play another year, I'm sure they welcome welcome with, with open arms. And I know Pittsburgh liked him a lot. They do. What about the organization?

[Dan Patrick]

What about Kyler Murray? Where does he land? Where should he land?

[Jay Glazer]

Okay, Bohemian TUA should say, okay, I want to go and try and learn under Kyle Shanahan, Kevin O', Connell, Sean McVeigh, Matt LaFleur, one of these guys and Andy Reid and a Sean Payton. But I don't see that there's not a lot of quarterback developers. But you know, I was talking to, you know, Kyle Shanahan this year and Kevin o' Connell kind of had the same thing when he's talking about how you take these guys and reprogram the Mac Jones of the world or Daniel Jones and, and you know, I remember Shanahan saying to me, for these guys, you just got to get them. They're so beat up. You got to get them to play unafraid. And if you could start doing that, give them that. So it's basically like I want to play fast, but at the same time I want them to play fearless. That's what's fearless. If you get them to be fearless again, then they're a God given talent which made them a top 10 pick, starts coming back out. But they're so beat up they're afraid to go do it. They're afraid to pull the trigger. So he said that's the number one thing first. But also like La Flor, what he did with Malik Willis with his footwork, phenomenal. You know what a lot of these guys are able to do with Kevin Oconnell, what he could do with those guys, technique wise, I would go and learn. So if I'm collared Though, Yeah, I go try and get with Kevin o'. Connell. Like, I'm. If I'm a player, I'd already be tampering. Usually the other way around.

[Dan Patrick]

We're talking to Jay Glazer, NFL on Fox Insider. The market for tua, I don't see,

[Jay Glazer]

you know, there's options out there for people right now, but same thing. I don't know if there's a. I don't think there's a huge market. And part of that also is, you know, he's a hit away from here. Right. So I think if you want to bring somebody in, it's got to be almost like, hey, who. Who loves them? I don't. I haven't anybody say it yet to this point. I think somebody will bring them in, take a flyer. But I think Collar will have a much bigger people go, you know, after Collar more than they will.

[Dan Patrick]

What about Atlanta for tua?

[Jay Glazer]

Yeah, but I'm saying if I'm Atlanta, I'm looking at Collar.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Jay Glazer]

You know, I think Collar is, you know, he. He jumps out ahead of tour right now. And look, I can't say a lot because I just haven't talked to, like, Matt, Ronnie and Cunningham and Mr. Fanski about to. But also, too, again, like, let's say everything works out. He still, you know, hadn't really protected himself much right up here. Right. When he, you know, with concussion. So let's say things work out right, and all of a sudden, man, he takes a ding in week seven, then you're back to square one. So I think even if you have to, you got to have somebody else in place there.

[Dan Patrick]

What do you make of the Rams, Chiefs trade? You don't get too many blockbusters like this in early March.

[Jay Glazer]

Yeah. I was actually with Sean McVeigh this weekend, and he was telling me about it, and he was like, over the moon. Like over the moon about this. And, you know, they trade away a lot for him, but Sean is always the type of guy. And you know what I'm surprised about, too, because he's always the type of guy like, you know, I'm going for it now. And I think more and more. And I was saying, it's surprisingly. I told him this. Surprisingly more people don't do what he does because, you know, you're getting with the Trent McDuffie with these draft picks now, you know, you hear more and more complaints. Guys, the combine, people not going to the combine, like coaches anymore because, like, we don't really know we're getting these guys anymore. You can't really, you know, your interviews, you can't pry. You get such a short period. And everybody's, you know, programmed. And I'm at fault for that, too. I had a bunch of kids this offseason, told them how to, you know, deal with the combine and how to just be honest with teams if you had off field troubles and just other things, what they're going to ask for and everything. Your life now needs to be about team, team, teams. But because they're so programmed, you don't really know where you're getting anymore. And kids don't go through adversity as much anymore. Right. You have a problem. I'm going to transfer. That's why, by the way, Tennessee went right for Cam Ward because they told me even before the combine, that's our guy because he'd been through adversity, which we don't find too many guys like that anymore. So I think, you know, if you have a proven commodity in the NFL, I would trade my picks also. And I'm surprised more teams don't do it because the Rams are in it every single year, and it's a copycat league and nobody really does. They still have this old school thing of, man, we got to really reload through the draft. And I get it, because if you hit, then you have, you know, salary cap relief there for a few years at least. But Sean was. Man, he was so over the moon for this. He was. He was willing to go all in on this.

[Dan Patrick]

Do we know the time frame for Mahomes coming back? Will, is he expected to start the season?

[Jay Glazer]

The original. The initial reports were, you know, kind of on the fringe there, but I want to say Patrick's different. He's different. So he went down. He immediately got the surgery, flew himself down. I think he flew private down there, got the surgery maybe the next day, which normally they don't do because you want, like, the swelling, he got a poor. Really swelled up, right? And so that was on a Tuesday. I believe it was either Thursday or Friday. That week. He was already in the chief's training room doing reh, and he already had gotten his knee bending at 90 degrees at that point, which he's just different. He heals differently. There's a guy, you know, who dislocated his kneecap. His leg was turned. He was turned around during the game. And he's like, hey, literally. He asked their trainer, Rick Bur, hold the dockers. Is it broken? No. Okay. And tape it up. Let's go back. Like, we're not taping up. Your knee is facing that way. And they're like. He's like, no, just tape it and let's go. And like, you know, he. He had a. A dislocated toe going into a shoal, and it fully dislocated. And he never took any time. Like, he just finished. Finished out the game. His pain threshold is different, his work ethics different. So while at first they're like, well, you know, start of the season, I think I would probably hedge on him being, you know, sooner than that by far, because he just attacks things, man, like. Like Aaron with his, you know, his Achilles. And Joe Burrow was different, too. Joe Burrow came back two months early. That's ridiculous. From his injury. That was. That was ridiculous. That's probably one of. That's one of the craziest things I've seen. I have a grade three turf toe, and he's done that. Come back, you know, as early as he did. I remember we were. I was at. I was in London last time we did the show. Right at the trade deadline that day, he texted me, he's come back. I'm like, come on, dude, what do you. You spend your time, like, doing edibles this all season during your rehab? There's no way. And he's like, no, I'm coming back, and I'm coming back way sooner than people think. I'm talking, like, in a couple weeks. I'm like, dude, there's no way. And sure enough, you know, he's just different.

[Dan Patrick]

And I guessed right with Quinn and Williams going to the Cowboys that day you were on.

[Jay Glazer]

Yes. Let me tell you this. So it's tricky. It's trade deadline. Dan and I are talking about our stem cell journey together. Also. I looked out on my phone and I'm texting, and he's like, what's going on now? Trade. I said, yeah, it's actually a team asking about Quinn and Williams and, you know, but they want, like, a blockbuster for him. And ask me about Quinn Williams, and he literally said, is the Cowboys. And it was the Cowboys. And I kind of looked, you know, kind of look like. I know you joke me a little bit. Like, oh, my God. Like, are you. You got. Are you. You put a virus on my phone.

[Dan Patrick]

Dan, I'm an insider now, I think. Yeah, yeah. Just don't. Don't ask. Obj. He called me an outsider.

[Jay Glazer]

He did, Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

I was right about something. And he. I don't think he liked that I was correct about something with him, and he called me an outsider.

[Jay Glazer]

He usually not sensitive like that. I've had a lot. Look, I reported that he was getting traded from the Giants to another team, and I got mercilessly destroyed by everybody. Like, just. And people started going on to Instagram and like, fans, listen, I'm an insider. My job's to report information that you don't know. You knew it. You're not my job. So my job is to give you information you don't know. And we do it. Don't get mad at us. Okay. Or we won't do it. And I put this out there. People started going on to different people who I was training in Unbreakable Celebrities and some with drug issues and going on to them saying, I hope you OD because you're stupid. You know, training partner and saying, oh, Odell is getting traded. Like, it was ridiculous.

[Dan Patrick]

Wow.

[Jay Glazer]

And I've been getting some of that for this Max Crosby one this offseason. People tell me how much I don't know. And attacking Rosie and getting after my wife and saying some racial stuff and just like, it's ridiculous. I got it for Wink Martindale two years ago saying they'd be gone from the Giants. And like, Giant fans, I've been covering this team since 93. If I say something, instead of attacking me, you may want to go call DraftKings or FanDuel or something.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know. Maybe I don't want to be an insider. Yeah.

[Jay Glazer]

I don't pull stuff out of my butt and. But that's my job, to come out of left field and tell people things they don't know. And people get so upset. They got upset with the Kevin o' Connell thing a couple years ago that there were teams looking to trade for him. There were four teams that were trying to trade, and then people got upset that I reported it on Sunday, and I'm like, I don't work at Fox. I work for Fox until Sunday. It's the rigors of being an insider, man. But you know what? I absolutely, you know, the whole sticks and stones thing, you know, don't break your bones, but words. I'm the opposite. Sticks and stones won't do a thing to me. I'm sensitive.

[Dan Patrick]

Great to see you. Thanks again.

[Jay Glazer]

Hey, man, talk to you soon.

[Dan Patrick]

All right. Jay Glazer.

[Chelsea Handler]

This is Chelsea Handler from Dear Chelsea after the Big Game, like most people, I kept thinking about the commercials, and there was one that stayed with me. It was from the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate, and it wasn't loud or flashy. It showed a Jewish kid being targeted at school and another student who chose not to ignore it. As someone who was Jewish, that moment felt very real to me. Not dramatic, just familiar. And what struck me was how clearly it showed that hate doesn't always announce itself, but the impact is still huge. If you saw the blue square spot during the Big Game, it's worth thinking about. And if you want to show support, sharing the Blue square is one small way to do that.
