Someone was posting photos. It was just me naked. Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts. This is Levittown, a new podcast from iHeart podcasts Bloomberg and Kaleidoscope about the rise of deepfake pornography and the battle to stop it. Listen to Levittown on Bloomberg's Big Podcast. Find it on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Clayton English. I'm Greg Lott and this is season two of the War on Drugs podcast. Last year a lot of the problems of the drug war. This year, a lot of the biggest names in music and sports. This kind of star studded a little bit, man. We met them at their homes, we met them at the recording studios. Stories matter and it brings A face to it. It makes it real. It really does. It makes it real. Listen to new episodes of the War on Drugs podcast season two on the Heart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, we did it. I think we did it. We hope to do it later on tonight. Welcome to the program. That's the sports Emmys I'm talking about. Got a party bus ready to go. Only beer. The backroom guys wanted hard alcohol, hard liquor. I go, no, no. On the way back, if you want to, we can do that. Maybe some champagne. But we're ready to go. We've got everything in place. Everybody's got their outfits. We've been told 30 seconds or less for the acceptance speech. Really? Yes. I got a note that said, hey, let's be optimistic. If you happen to win, you get 30 seconds to then say what you need to say with the acceptance speech. But we could go 060 for six here. We can't see. Maybe we just do a one word accepted speech. What would the one word be? Thanks. Okay, just walk off and that's it. Thanks. Drop the mic. Just leave the mic as is. Just walk up, hold it up, say thanks, and then walk off. How about we do a walk off where we say thanks, and we leave the sports Emmy up there? Oh, like a wrestler leaving his shoes as they retire. Yeah, we just put it up there and say, hey, it's not about the hardware. We know we're great. Thank you. Yes. Paul, There was an Academy Awards years ago where Joe Pesci won best supporting actor, I think, for Goodfellas. And his speech was five seconds. He goes, thank you. Thank you very much. Okay. And he walked. It's not possible if Todd's on stage with us for that to happen. Yes, Todd. Or we go way over 30 seconds just to see what happens. Do they blink light? Do they play music? What exactly are the steps taken to rush us off the stage? That a curiosity of it. It is funny, but I've been there when people have gone, they've blown right through that stop sign, and they'll do a couple of minutes, and then people start to get, you know, nervous. And because you get people up there who aren't normally up in front of people, you know, behind a microphone, the producer gets up there and he wants to blab, blah, blah, blah, blah. Yes. You really want your category to go before they start giving out the awards. Like every year someone gets nominated like, oh, this is your award, Jimmy. Lipper, you're winning the Skipp PPP Vanguard award. And then the guy comes up, he's holding a speech and he's like, I, I started out as a board up. A young man eager out of college. Like, oh, crap, we still got four more of these things. Okay, you know who is being honored, like the big honor? This is awkward. The guy who is being honored tonight. Every year they honored somebody. Lifetime achievement award. I'm gonna give you a hint and I'm gonna give you two words in that hint. Cream rinse. David Hill. I started Fox Sports, the famous Aussie who had the words to me when I interviewed with him a lunch prior to the super bowl in Phoenix. What was that, 1996. And I thought I was getting the host job on Fox. And that's when he left me with the words. I've got two words for you. Cream rinse. You gotta respect him, but if you see his hair, I could have said, david, how about some cream rinse too for that moss you got there, dude? Yeah, I mean, I could have said that. If I run into him tonight, I'm gonna say, david, cream rinse. Yes, Todd. What if he actually shares that cream rinse story with everybody? Just looking back at his career, I don't think anybody's gonna care that David Hill said I had one guy wrong. I, I knew everyone that was great ahead of time. I knew who to hire. But there was one mistake I made. Here's the cream rin story I'd like to share. He didn't make a mistake. Probably in his mind hired the right people. It's okay. I'm over it. Fine. It's only 30 years ago, right? But that's tonight. Big sports Emmy night. Got our speeches ready. Checking out the back room, guys. Yeah, they're going to on the party bus. They got all their outfits ready to go. So we'll, we'll chronicle this. We'll have it on our social media account. All right. DanPatrick.com stat of the day brought to you by Panini America.

Talk to Albert Brear, the Monday morning quarterback. He'll join us. Coming up in a little bit. You have hockey tonight. Panthers in The Hurricanes, Game one. And you have the NBA tonight, Timberwolves and the Thunder, Game one, as the Thunder are a big favorite tonight. I think last time I looked there, a seven and a half point favorite. The Knicks in their game one against the Pacers. Right now, the Knicks are a four and a half point favorite at home. So the NFL owners meetings, the packers adjust the Tush Push proposal. We'll talk about this coming up. Because I was told yesterday they must simplify the language. This source told me if they're going to eliminate the tush push, simplifying the language so the owners understand exactly what you can and can't do. And it looks like that's what they're trying to do there. They've actually, I think taken out a paragraph here of the proposal for the Tush Push. What you can and cannot do. Have that for you Coming up in a little bit. Fred Warner, the Niners locked up Fred Warner, who is a Hall of Famer in waiting. You know, he's one of those. Oh, that's right. He's in on every play. It feels like there's certain guys where you go, I don't know if I'd spend a lot of money on that position, middle linebacker. But Fred Warner, he's great. And you know, they had Patrick Willis. Luke Kuechley is another guy who got made famous by playing that position because it felt like he was in on every tackle. And Fred Warner is a wonderful player. And I don't know how the Niners are affording all these players. It just, it feels like, I mean, Brandon Iuk, they overpaid for greatly they got him and then Kittle got re up. Brock Purdy just got paid. Trent Williams, you got fred Warner here. McAffrey gets good coin. Man, you keep saying. I mean, you know, they have a fantasy football team. It feels like it's like we're going to take that guy and that guy and that guy and that guy. How do we afford them? I don't know. But Fred Warner got paid and the Eagles extend head coach Nick Sirianni. Boy, it was what, a year ago that we're talking about and maybe last February we're talking about can Nick Sirianni survive? And now all of a sudden he's getting extended. Now this won't be the last time I think we asked the question, is he going to get fired? Because it feels like, hey, they won, he got rid of coordinators to save his job. And then all of a sudden you get Saquon Barkley. If I'm Nick Sirianni. I say a thank. I send a thank you to the Giants front office. I just say, hey, thanks for being stupid and allowing us to get Saquon Barkley. Thanks for the new contract, by the way. I'm going to be around to haunt you for a while. Seton, what's the poll question today? Well, we got a couple of them here. We got one here from Paulie. Would you rather be, hands down, the best middle linebacker in the NFL or the 10th best quarterback that old Paul? Okay. Would I rather be. Okay, is the general consensus Fred Warner is the best middle linebacker in football? I think so. Okay. So would I rather be Fred Warner or Dak Prescott? You think he's right around the 10 spot in the rankings? I think that's generous. Yeah, it is. Probably more like Geno Smith. Wow. I could go by NFL.com. okay. Are we including the money that you make? Yes. Oh. But if you're the 10th best quarterback, you're not a superstar. You're paid well. Okay. Would I rather be Fred Warner or Geno Smith? Because Gino makes more money. Fred is going to go to the hall of Fame. It's probably some combination of like Jared Goff, Gino Smith, Brock Purdy. That's probably like 9, 10, 11ish. It's hard to pass up on getting $50 million. So I. You have to factor that in if. If that matters too. You're making 50 as opposed to 25. Correct. But Fred Warner is one of the greats and will be a Hall of Famer when it's all said and done. I don't think the quarterbacks we've mentioned are going to go into the hall of Fame. Yes. Paul, like Jordan Love on NFL.com two months ago, was ranked as the 10th best quarterback in the NFL. He's good. See my voice go up. He's good. Yeah. Okay. He doesn't seem on to be on a Hall of Fame path yet, but I need somebody who's played a longer. Justin Herbert was ranked 11th. Yeah, but you got to get somebody who. Because Fred Warner's. This is his last contract. He'll probably play two to three more years and that's it. Geno Smith is going to play two to three more years and then he's done. Brock Purdy is going to play a long time. Jordan Love is going to play a long time. So I. I'd have to have something that, you know, the careers equal out a little bit with how long they played, how much more they're going to play. But Fred Warner, he's a great player. He just gets lost on that team because that team is so, you know, star loaded, front loaded with stars. Yes, Marvin, he'd be more famous if he was an edge rusher. I think the game has changed so much where guys like Micah Parsons and Abdul Carter, they would have been middle linebackers 25 years ago. Well, Michael Parsons kind of plays both. I mean, that, that, that's the value that you have with him, that, you know, looking back in college, they weren't quite sure, you know, what position he would play. And I still go back to that draft when my source said he's the best player in the draft. It's just he brings baggage with him. And this was, you know, a scout who said that. And Micah Parsons, I don't know exactly if you say you know what his baggage is. I don't even know what it was going into the draft. But he's proven to be a, you know, a Hall of Famer. It feels like in waiting there. But he does both. He's a hybrid, and that's what Lawrence Taylor was. Lawrence Taylor was a linebacker. But then all of a sudden it's like, hey, get up on the edge. And you knew he was coming and there was nothing you could do about it. Micah Parsons is certainly like that. Yes. Todd, I know how revered the quarterback position is in the NFL and all of sports, but wouldn't you want to be, all things considered, considered the best at what you do, even if it's the second or third or fourth best position or however you want to rank the most important positions in a given sport, that you're the best at that. Okay. I'm going to ask you, though, do you want to be Geno Smith or Fred Warner? I think I want to be Fred Warner. Okay. All right. And definitely a glitch to walking around saying you're a quarterback, even a top 10 quarterback, but you're 10th, 15th, whatever. But the best at your position is. It's kind of a big deal. You get, you know, with the Mike Singletary's of the world and the Erlacher's or whatever. I want to be part of that group. Okay, but Geno Smith is making what, $45 million a year? Yes, Seaton, up to this point, they've made about the exact same amount of money. Okay. I, you know, the thing for Fred Warner, to me is, I mean, that's, That's a healthy living anyway for a normal person. Sure. But he's on a competitive team. And I mean, I'll take that. That there's a. There's a huge amount of value in that than just, you know, like, monetary. Okay. But that would probably be, you know, the comparison I would use because Fred's in his, what, early 30s, maybe? He's turning 29 this season. Okay. Man, four out of the last five years. First Team All Pro middle linebacker. You're going to the hall of Fame if you do that. Yes, yes. He's a great player. There's certain players where you go, damn, he's in on, like, Palomalu did that. Like, you just say, he's in on Junior SEO every play. It felt like Luke Keakley every play. You know, Roquan Smith is another one. That great middle linebacker as well. That used to be, you know, the position certainly when you talked about defense. But you had your. Your front line that geared everything to you. And that's why Singletary and Butkus and Nitschke and Jack Lambert, they were. Ray Lewis, they're in on all the tackles because the line allows that to happen. I mean, you still have to make the tackles, but that's where we focused in on Mike Singletary's bdis there. He was waiting. Yes. Let's see it. Yes. It feels like the position, too, that you become a head coach after, like the middle linebacker and then you transition right into head coaching after that, kind of see the field. He's like, hey, you. I don't know. Singletary wasn't a very good coach. Rabel is pretty good, but. Yeah, yeah, well, Rabel. Rabel didn't get dinged up, I'm sure, like Mike Singletary did. You know, Ray Lewis did those guys. I don't know. You want those guys to be your. Your head coach? Okay. Yes. Marvin. And Fred Warner's got a play that he's mastered the punch. Like when he hits you. Yeah. And he punches to get the ball out with the fumble. Unbelievable. Best linebacker in football, but not as famous as, you know, we think he should be. Yeah, because Bose is more famous than Fred Warner on that defense, right? Correct. Because he's an edge rusher. All right, let me take a break. We'll come up with a poll question.

It was just me naked. Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts on my body parts that looked exactly like my own. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream. It happened in Levittown, New York. But reporting the series took us through the darkest corners of the Internet and to the front lines of a global battle against deepfake pornography. This should be illegal, but what is this? This is a story about a technology that's made moving faster than the law and about vigilantes trying to stem the tide. I'm Margie Murphy.

And why they brought it back, I have no idea. And they said it was hard to adjudicate. I was like, okay, how about we just come up with language? Can you come up with language? You know, the problem is with the NFL, they add more language. They don't take it away. And then all of a sudden, you started to hear that, oh, this is unfair. This isn't a football play. And. And then I go, okay, well, which team is going to have a proposal to get rid of the Tush Push? And we found out it was the Green Bay Packers. And we had Matt LaFleur, the Packers head coach. He joined us at the draft, and we went back and forth on this, and I think we found out that maybe the packers were told to have a proposal to get rid of the Tush push, the brotherly shove that the packers came out. You guys are against. Would you have liked that? To have remained anonymous, that there's a team, that it is what it is. We might have had some nudging towards that, but I'm not really going to get into that. Did the commissioner say we need somebody to speak up? I wouldn't say that because I don't think the commissioner wants this. No. Can I. Can I say what I think happened? Sure. Okay. I think the commissioner nudged you guys to say, look, if you have a grievance, put your name to it. I'll owe you one. And because I don't think he wants that. That play to stay in the game. Well, it's not a great football play. And then certainly when you look at what happened in the Washington Commander game, where Frankie Lu's launching over the top, which, I mean, it's a tough play to stop. We've actually had more Success. And we had some studies ran. We've had more success with the traditional quarterback sneak than we have with, you know, whatever you want to call it. But see, brotherly shove. I think Philadelphia is still going to be dominating with the quarterback sneak. I agree. Because of that line and that quarterback, 100%. I mean, they do a great job and I mean, Jalen hurts can squat the house. So they do a good job of just, you know, winning the line of scrimmage. It all starts right there and they get really low and they've. They've perfected it. Keep in mind that they were going to vote on this the last time they all got together. And what happened? They tabled it. Well, they tabled it because the commissioner, in my opinion, didn't have the votes to get rid of the tush push. That's it. And then to say to the packers, hey, I mean, Matt LaFleur is basically saying that. They said, hey, we're going to nudge you a little bit, put your name to it, and then, you know, maybe down the road you do a solid for the packers in some way, shape or form. I don't know if it's quid pro quo, but hey, you guys are going to take a little heat because then what happened? Oh, packers can't stop it, so they want to get rid of. Feels like the packers did the NFL a solid and then put their name to it. I don't know what they get back, but they got the draft. Maybe you get another draft in there somewhere down the road. And from what I was told yesterday that I passed on to you is you got to simplify the language. That was, that was almost the homework assignment by the NFL. Now, this is my opinion only from information I have, you know, that I was told, and nobody has backed this up, but I'm telling you what I was told. Simplify the language. And then there's a real chance, I don't think, that the NFL doesn't want this play. I don't think the commissioner wants this play because aesthetically, it's not a great looking play. And it's very, very predictable. And I stand by what I said. That offensive line with that quarterback, they're still going to be unstoppable when it comes to quarterback snakes. They are. Because he can squat 600 pounds. Okay? That's unheard of. And he's six feet tall by the time he squats down. He goes forward. Quarterback sneak with a little momentum, he's down to about five, five. And then you're just not going to get low and stop him. They will still be extremely successful. Here is the amended rule. It's Rule 12, Section 1, Article 4, by the way. So assisting the runner in interlocking interference. No offensive player may push or pull a runner in any direction at any time or lift him to his feet. Now, they did take out a paragraph here. It's, you know, the paragraph that said use interlocking interference by grasping a teammate or by using his hands or arms to encircle the body of a teammate in an effort to block an opponent. Or then they kept this in push or throw his body against a teammate to aid him in an attempt to obstruct an opponent or. Or recover a loose ball or assist the runner, except by individually blocking opponents for him. The penalty for doing this is a loss of 10 yards. They're trying to do player safety. The problem is they don't have the data. If they had the data, then this would be gone. Problem is that they don't. So they're worried about player safety, but also pace of play and the aesthetic. Now, you don't want this to look like you're. You're singling out the Eagles. That was another thing I was told. You want to do it in a way that feels like it's the league as a whole, not the Eagles. Well, we all know it's the Eagles. I mean, even the Buffalo Bills were this second best at doing this. And what happened in the most important quarterback sneak of their season? Josh Allen got stopped. But that goes back to what I'm saying. Josh Allen is, you know, 6, 5, 2, 40. But Jalen hurts with trying to get this play and be successful, is built for this play. Josh Allen isn't because he's almost too big of a target. Jalen hurts will still be successful and so will the Eagles with this play. But that's going to be a big topic. And Albert Breer will join us from the owners meetings. But why they allowed this to come back. I. I still think there's a simple simplification here. You're not allowed to be behind the runner and assist the runner. Period. That's it. If. If you put yourself in that position, we're going to flag you on it. You just know that it's a. No, no, that's it. Or if you want to say anything that is inside the tackles, the tackle box, you cannot assist a runner if you want to do it that way. But I would still just say you cannot assist a runner. You can't push. You can't poll, you can't assist. That's it done. And then you let teams don't. You know, you can't crack back block any anymore on a punt or a kickoff return. They know it. So you don't do it. You can't put your hands. You can't have a 300 pound lineman behind Jalen hurts. You can't have Dallas Goddard there pushing him from behind. You can't do it. That's all you, that's all you need to say. Can't line up that way. It's a quarterback sneak. You know, the interesting part is Tom Brady was as good at the quarterback sneak as any quarterback in history. And Tom's not an imposing guy, not a big guy, not necessarily a great offensive line, but he was so strategic in where he went either left or right, off the center or straight ahead. But this is different. You know, the, the, the optics, the aesthetics of it don't look good because it looks like a scrum. It looks like rugby. I don't have any problem with it. They figured out something. They mastered it. Everybody else has the same opportunity to do it. And you know what? Nobody else has come close. Now it feels like the NFL is saying we're going to do this and penalize the Philadelphia Eagles, but I think they're going to get rid of it because that's why they tabled it in the first place. Chris in Syracuse. Hi, Chris. What's on your mind today? Hey, thank you, Dan. Hey. I wanted to get in and I just wanted to make sure to wish you guys good luck tonight. And I think you're gonna get off the snide lucky number 11. Make that seven. So good luck. Hey, as long as you're talking about the tush push, a couple comments, I, I totally agree with you. You know, the commissioner has come out and he says there's no data, but their doctors feel that there's a high probability of catastrophic injury on the play. Now you could say that on any play in the NFL. And I think you're right. He wants it out. He thinks it's a boring play and he'd much rather have teams on third and one and fourth and one go play action or something. And again, to your point, Philly's not going to miss a beat. I read something where three or four years ago they did a survey back or a study back to 1985 where 3rd and 1 and 4th and 1 QB sneaks are successful 88% of the time. And as you said with Jalen Hurts, they're going to. They won't miss a beat. And Dan, it's funny, whenever I hear the term push push, I don't know why I always think of the Ice bowl when bart Starr on 4th and goal at the one won the championship by a QB sneak. And I saw Jim Taylor once had a documentary. He was narrating it and he pointed out that the first three times he got the ball on the one and because of the ice he could not get in. He couldn't get footing. So Bart Starr figured I'll just fall in and get it. And he won the championship. And Jim Taylor said Vince Lombardi and Bart Starr were the only two that knew it was going to be quarterback sneak. Everybody thought Taylor was going to get the ball again, including him. And he said he was going full bore. His momentum took him right into Bart Starr's butt and he couldn't stop because of the ice. And. And he said that iconic photo of Taylor with his hands up in the air, everybody thought he was signaling touchdown. We won the championship. But he was saying he wanted the official to know because he knew it'd be a penalty. I am not pushing them in. There is no push push here. Thank you, Chris. Andrew in Washington. Hi Andrew. Good morning. Dan Dennett. Thanks for taking my call. Good luck tonight as well. I do think this is lucky number seven for you. So you guys will be walking away with the trophy. 2 Comments. You know yesterday you said Giannis to the Cleveland Cavs. I agree with that. I just think that he might be better with a Darius Garland complimentary guard. Sort of like Drew Holiday instead of a Donovan Mitchell Dame Lillard type of guard where they're more ball dominant. I think that would be a very successful team that could get rid of Jared Allen, keep Evan Mobley, Darius Garland and Giannis Antetokounmpo also yesterday. Thanks for having Tony Realy on. God, that guy is so great and I can't believe that that shows getting canceled. I've grown up with it. I love it. But I do think he should be in the leader spot for continuing your show if it does continue after you in the man cave. I think he would be the best at being able to manage Dan yet get all of the subjects in there. He has a wide variety. He has very many connections to get guests in there and have different people come on the show. Just wanted to put that for all right, well thank you Andrew. I'd be honored if he wanted to do this. I think he aspires to do other things but maybe we have Tony reali, guest host one time. I think he'd be. He'd be great. 877.3DP Show by the way, I think we're over five. This would be over six if we lost. Is that. Do I have my math correct on this, Paul? I think you're right. We went 0 for 5 in a row and then took a couple years off to regroup, and now we're back. Okay. This would be our sixth nomination. Okay. All right. We're due. Yeah, we're due. You guys don't look confident. Satan. We're due, right? Heck, yeah. We're due. We're overdue. Yeah, for sure. And. And Todd wants. Okay, this was a suggestion. Okay. Once again, just a suggestion. Todd was thinking, what if he did a sports Emmy acceptance speech as a limerick? Or we could read it together. Well, we each take one line. Five lines. That would be perfect. We each do one line of the limerick. Do you have a limerick? I kind of do. Ready for minutes ago. So not a lot of thought. No, I literally wrote it five minutes ago. Like, we're talking about this and we're talking about how. What kind of speech we would. Okay, well, we're not going to do a limerick. But. But I will let you read the limerick. You'll humor me? Yes, I will. Yes. Having gone 0 for 5, caused some harm, anxious for your name to be called. Sweaty palm. They say just getting nominated's an honor, but that's crap, right? Seaton o' Connor. Look at us now. The six times a charm. Okay, thanks. A little limerick for the sports Emmy. Well, thank you. Why not? Actual sound. That's the audience tonight. That's a little limerick. Yeah. A couple of seconds of content. Moving on. No, no, thank. No, I'm fine with it. I'm fine. We workshop this. Nothing scripted. Look at us now, the sixth time. No, no, I got. I got it. I got it. I got it. Fossas got it. What's the hour one poll question? I'm so glad that you asked. So glad. Was Todd's limerick. JK. JK. By the way, I have the DraftKings NBA title odds. Thunder are the big favorites. Then it's the. And Tim Wolfs and the Pacers kind of bunched together there. Tim Wolfs by seven and a half, getting seven and a half against the Thunder. And the Knicks will be giving four and a half in game one against the Pacers. Okay. Yes. Would you rather be the best middle linebacker or the 10th best quarterback? Right now, the best middle linebacker is running away with that one, But I think that will change soon. We also put up there a random one that I had. When you hear Oilers, you think of a football team or a hockey team. Right now, football team's got 60 of that vote. Okay, that'll change, too. I did love the Houston Oilers. They were a fun team. Bum Phillips. Earl Campbell. Then he had Warren Moon, Ernest Givens. Yes. Marvin the Haywood Jeffries. Yeah, Haywood Jeffries. Was he out of, like, NC State? Something like that. Yes. Todd, Kenny Burrow and Curly Culp. And Pastorini. All those guys. That was so much fun. Dante Pastorini. Dante. Yeah. Dan Pastorini. Dante Pastorini. Let me see. Walk in Chicago. Hey, walk. What's on your mind today? Hey, what's up, Dan? I'm just wondering, if the NFL were to adopt your idea on the whole tush push thing, would you make the play reviewable? Sure. I. All I care about is, you know, we talk about reviewable now. It used to be instant replay, and then it, you know, it became anything but instant. Now it's replay. Now it's reviewable. Like, so we keep changing the language. I want the game to move at a steady pace. I watch, you know, NBA sometimes. Those final five minutes, it's just interminable. It's just, oh, my gosh, let's speed this up. But with the NFL, if you. If you have the technology. Don't have the technology, if you're not using the technology and the. The. The time in between plays, can you have, you know, five sets of eyes at the NFL home office that says, oh, you know what? Not a penalty. Oh, penalty. Like, why does it take so long to come up with whatever your opinion is on this? But, yeah, if you want to review it, but do it in a timely manner, it should be, you know, they should have a clock on that. This is the amount of time the officials and the NFL get to use to review something, because after a while, it's like, you know, you want to see another, you know, another and another, and now you. You're slowing down the pace of play. It's still. This is entertainment. You want to make sure. If you're taking away something that's aesthetically boring, like the tush push, then I think you got to apply that same kind of logic that every other pla. Like, let's speed this up. Let's get this moving. Let's make the call here. You want to review it, do it. Maybe not in an instant, but do it in a timely fashion. Yes, Paulie, I saw an article from Sports Business Journal a few years ago about this topic, why is there not a clock on replay? And they didn't want to be hamstrung. And if they got into a situation where a playoff game where they weren't sure and they had to take multiple looks at it and they didn't want to be limited with a clock, that was a long time ago. But it's the only thing I saw because we get to see these replays and then it feels like there's another wave of replays there. But yeah, in a timely fashion. Yes, if it means you can get the play right, then get the play right. Or don't use it. Like, make up your mind. You can't sort of go, hey, you know, we got all these angles here. Remember for years I kept saying they got to use pylon, they got to put a camera in the pylon. Like, it just made sense. Therefore you had that camera right at the goal line and you'd get unbelievable angles. And it took years for them to finally, and maybe they couldn't find, you know, a camera that was going to fit in and durable and all those things. Now we just take it for granted. I mean, we take it for granted that it's going to take a while to render an opinion on a play. You know, it's just like, get the batter in the batter's box. Like, we allowed it for such a long period of time. It's like, yeah, you know, you gotta step out and adjust and then. Okay, and then step out and adjust. No, get in the batter's box. Let's go. Let's take a break here. Early poll results, more phone calls and our play of the day.

The American west with Dan Flores is the latest show from the Meat Eater Podcast Network hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores and brought to you by Velvet Buck. This podcast looks at a West available nowhere else. Each episode I'll be diving into some of the lesser known histories of the West. I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall Williams and best selling author and meat eater founder Stephen Rinella. I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say when cave people were here. And I'll say it seems like the Ice Age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6, where we'll delve into stories of the west and come to understand how it helps in the ways in which we experience the region today.

In 2020, a group of young women in a tidy suburb of New York City found themselves in an AI fueled nightmare. Someone was posting photos. It was just me naked. Well, not me, but me with someone else's body parts on my body. Parts that looked exactly like my own. I wanted to throw up. I wanted to scream. It happened in Levittown, New York. But reporting the series took us through the darkest corners of the Internet and to the front lines of a global battle against deepfake pornography. This should be illegal, but what is this? This is a story about a technology that's moving faster than the law and about vigilantes trying to stem the tide. I'm Margie Murphy. And I'm Olivia Carville.

And it's a walk off two run double for Jesus Sanchez. The Marlins magic continues in Miami. Marlins magic catch it. That's courtesy of Marlins radio Network.

Let me see Rick in Michigan. Hi, Rick. What's on your mind today? Hey, D.P. hey. I think we're hyper focused on the tush push. My lines literally picked Montgomery up and carried him eight yards. And I always see Penny Soul shoving him over the goal line. So I don't know if we're going to have to keep him in the tackles. This new rule that we're thinking about. But it happens more than just a twitch push, don't you think? Yes, it does. All you have to do is say you cannot assist a runner from behind. That's it. Once you start flagging teams, taking away touchdowns, don't you know the message will be sent? Yeah. Paul, could you cut it down to you can't assist the runner because you're not allowed to pull either. That's still in place, by the way, the no pulling rule. Yeah, yeah. You can't assist the runner. Yeah. That's a short rule. Yeah, yeah. See, then wouldn't that also include. If you said you can't assist the runner, wouldn't that also include blocking in front of them? No, but you're not touching the runner. Right, but see, this is why. So my point is, you have to deliberately make these rules more wordy because then it's nothing but endless loopholes. That then is going to be debated constantly. You're not allowed to have. You can't assist the runner with contact. You can't touch him, you can't grab him, you can't pull him, you can't push him, you can't lift him. That's it. Nothing. And, you know, word will get around after a while. It will. Then they'll be like, hey, all right. We're just blind. I mean, they played the game for decades and nobody was doing this. You could still do this. You just say you're not allowed to push or pull or lift. Kevin in California. Hi, Kevin. What's on your mind today? Yeah, actually, I have an idea to make the replays better. But on the touch push, what if you gave half the touchdown, whoever pushed him in? That would kind of eliminate the. Then you'd have runners saying, no, no, no, no, no, don't touch me. Don't don't touch me. We missed his instant replay proposal there. Marvin, you hung up on him. Bob in Montana. Hi, Bob. Welcome back. Oh, hey, D.P. thanks. Hey, I'd like to propose a win win pie to the face bet for you. When you guys win your sports Emmy tonight, I will mail you another bottle of bourbon for Montana for you guys to celebrate with. But on the million to one chance that you do not win it, I will do a pie to the face in protest to the voting committee for them blowing it yet again. All right, that sounds like a win win. I get bourbon or I get Bob taking a pie to the face. All about content. Thank you, Bob, by the way. All right, Seaton, early poll results, if you can, please. Yep, we got a couple of them working right now. Random one about which comes to mind when you hear Oilers football team or a hockey team. Okay, I think hockey fans are upset about this one right now. That's staying at about 60, 40. And we also have up there. Would you rather be the best middle linebacker or the 10th best quarterback? Almost zero respect for the 10th best quarterback currently. Shout out to middle linebackers today. Today's your day, fellas. All right. Today's your day, lads. Middle linebacker day. Hug a middle linebacker day. Today. Just walk up to Brian Erlocker randomly or Ray Lewis. Yeah, you, you. Today's your day, huh? Hey, come here, Ray. Hey. What? Yes, Marvin. I'm crossing my fingers, hoping that I see London Fletcher tonight. Oh, okay. Yeah, maybe Lavon Kirkland. You too, Lavon Kirkland. How about that? That's how famous middle linebackers were in the 90s. Used to be. Used to be Way back when. Yeah, I know. Like, oh, look at him, the middle linebacker. He's like a Pro bowl alternate. Doesn't matter. We know him. You got. You gotta have one. It was really important. Then all of a sudden, those damn edge rushers came in. Then even nose tackles had their moment there. Yeah, Paulie, when they invented the term sacks in the late 70s, early 80s, that put a value on defensive ends and rush guys. And that's what, you know. Middle linebackers never got them. So it's like the spotlight changed. Yeah, you don't get paid for tackles. You get paid when you tackle the quarterback. That's the difference there. Stat of the Day is always brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of this program. Let me see if I have anything else here. The Panthers are slight favorites to win the cup. Then it's the Oilers, followed by the Stars and the Hurricanes. The Thunder are the big favorites to win the NBA title. I'm sorry, which Oilers? That would be the Edmonton Oilers. The Edmonton Oilers. Dang. Yeah. They win championships. Yeah, they do. The Houston Oilers were entertaining. They didn't win anything. Yeah, Marvin, entertaining. Not great. They were entertainingly good hall of. Very good. Yeah. That Buffalo Bills game explains everything. Oh, my goodness. Now that's a collapse, you know, of monumental proportions. And wasn't it Frank Reich, the backup quarterback, who led Buffalo to that? But they were down by 35 or something. I should remember the exact details of that. It's one of those where you're watching, you go, all right, Buffalo's making it interesting. All right. It's going to be competitive. Hey, you know, the. The score is not being. Not going to be indicative of just how Houston dominated Buffalo. Yeah. And all of a sudden you're going, all right, okay. All right. Buffalo is winning. All right. Okay. Down 17. We'll head to the owners meetings. Albert Breer will join us. They're also trying to make the onside kick a little spicier. Got some information on that as well. One hour in the books, two more to go. It's Todd, it's Seton, it's Marv, it's Paulie, yours truly. Why is a soap opera western like Yellowstone so wildly successful?
