And in case you're wondering, it is a meat Friday at that. Come on in. Stay a while. The gang's here, ready to go. Chef Greg is here from rec tech, and I do have the menu that was just sent to me. Chicken leg lollipops, party ribs, a meat cake that includes cheese pizza, wagyu brisket, pulled pork, burnt ends, jalapeno poppers, and chicken lollipops. What has it better than we do? Nobody. Yes, Paul, you get the theme here, right? Yeah. It's a birthday cake. It's a birthday cake. Thank you, Paul. Happy birthday, buddy. Happy birthday. Thank you. Thank you. Todd. Yes. Big seven. Oh, today. And that's when you say, boy, you don't look it. Thank you. Although nobody said that today. When I walked in, Paulie goes, this is a big one, huh? I go, yeah. He goes, all right. Happy birthday. And I was waiting for something a little more like, man, you don't act like. I don't act like I'm 70. I might look like I'm 70. Walk like I'm 70. Yes, Paul, I did say, I think you're in better shape now than you were 10 years ago. Yeah. I meant it. Yeah. There were some issues you had 10 years ago, and now you're. You're flying around. Actually, 15 years ago. Yeah. Is when this first hit me. And autoimmune doesn't leave. You know, I keep asking, will you please leave? And he's always there, always going to be there. Yes, Tom.

Unlike any other man cave in America, in the world, perhaps. We say good morning if you're watching on Peacock. Thank you for downloading the app and our radio affiliates. We have four over 400 radio affiliates around the country. Rich Eisen, NFL Network and the Mothership joins us in studio. A little bit later on, Scott Van Pelt of the mothership from the PGA Championship and Albert Breer, the Monday morning quarterback. He'll look at the schedule, release the announcement. The Patriots will be at the Seahawks. I don't know if anybody is asking for a Super bowl rematch. I certainly wasn't. But you always gift the defending super bowl champs the home opener starting the season. I probably would have looked at a maybe a little better match up there. But you're going to get eyes on this game anyway because it's the first game of the regular season. Now you throw in the Mike Vrabel element here that might be more interesting than the super bowl rematch here because I didn't like the super bowl. Therefore I'm not that interested in a Super bowl rematch here. But give Seattle a chance if they want to raise the banner. They have a big night. They have the day night to themselves. So Seattle will open up the festivities against the Patriots. Yes. Dylan, would you like to guess the line on that game? Dan? Now I did not know this. Dylan, who is part of the gambling podcast, says there are betting lines on every single game already the entire season. You can find a betting line. Yep. DraftKings has every single game for the entire NFL season. You can go bet it right now. Okay. But let's say the is it Steelers, Broncos on Black Friday? Yep. Can you get the betting line there for me for that? I got it right here. Okay. It is Broncos minus one and a half at the Steelers. Okay. That's wild because I guess we assume Rogers is going to play. I don't know when Patrick Mahomes is going to play. Would you give me the betting lines for the Chiefs first three games? Because if it's not Patrick Mahomes and it's Justin Fields, that's probably a four or five point spread there. Change? Yes, Dill. Well, I can actually give you the first five games then since I have them right here. Okay. Shockingly, the Chiefs are favored in every single one of those games. So they're minus two and a half against the Broncos Week one, then minus five and a half against the Colts, minus seven at the Dolphins, minus five and a half at the Raiders, and then minus two and a half back home against the Chargers. But is that where you kind of load up on Denver and maybe hope that Mahomes is not playing? Yeah, you're sort of, I mean, it's a, you know, like if trading futures, you're basically waiting for things that are undetermined right now to pan out and sort of getting ahead of the game. People will do that and sell their ticket, you know, like on Prop Swap or one of those sites if you just have a good feeling about it. The amount of primetime games the Rams have seven Packers, Chiefs, bill, Seahawks, six Cowboys, five Eagles, Bears, Patch, Niners five. Four primetime games, Vikings, Giants, Steelers, Ravens, Lions, Texans, Commanders, the Jags, Broncos, Bengals, Falcons, Panthers, Chargers, Bucks get three prime time games, Colts get two. Saints and Browns get one shutout. Jets, Cardinals, Titans, Dolphins, Raiders. Now, I was thinking about with the Raiders, if this was Arch Manning with the Raiders, the Raiders would be getting some primetime games because we would be under the impression that Arch Manning would be starting for The Raiders Week 1. Fernando Mendoza, probably not starting. And by the time he does start, the Raiders might not be in a position to be a formidable opponent to somebody later in the season. Let's say Mendoza starts in week 13 and you've got five wins. Now, you still want to see Mendoza, but the reason why they don't have any primetime games is they have Kurt Cousins. They won't have Mendoza starting there, but I think that's interesting. The Dolphins not must see tv Cam Ward. I think if they had gotten Jeremiah Love, I think that they would have gotten a primetime game. The Cardinals have Jeremiah Love and they don't have a primetime game. And then you have the Jets. All right, you can sleep on the jets this year, but next year the jets are going to get at least three primetime games next year. Wow. I'm just. If they continue this path, they had a good draft. Now if they do things right now, they might get a little better than they want to. So they can't get the quarterback that they really want. And then you'd have Geno, you know, for your year two with the Jets. Yes, Paul. That's a national judgment of your franchise, though. The amount of national TV games you have the jets, that's a monster market. They have to find a way to be so bad they can't get a national tv. Easiest schedules, Cleveland Browns. Easiest schedule. They'll need it. The Saints. Then it's the Bengals, Falcons, Colts, Lions, Texans, Titans, Ravens, Eagles. That's the top 10. How about toughest schedule? Toughest schedule, Paulie. Chicago Bears. Then it's the Dolphins, Arizona, Green Bay, Kansas City, the Patriots, Raiders, and the Buffalo Bills. This is the. If you're the Dolphins, you're okay with a tough schedule. I don't think you want to win too many games this upcoming season. And the Cardinals as well. Kind of want to be on the clock. Get your quarterback in both cases here. Unless you believe in, you know, Malik Willis, you know, as a long term solution. Seahawks, Patriots. Marks the third time in NFL history there will be a rematch from the previous season. Super bowl in Week 1. Broncos, Panthers, Week 1, 2016. And then the Chiefs and the Vikings met Week 1 in 1970 after meeting in the super bowl the previous season. I don't think the Patriots make the playoffs. I don't think the Bears make the playoffs. A little early for hot. I know, I know, I know, I know, I know. I look at the Patriots now, okay, there's drama, but it, it. I don't know how it reflects on the football team. You have the Mike Brable and I don't know if anything else. I was going to say another shoe drop, you know, Feels like it's a closet full of shoes that have dropped already. The Patriots open the season against Seattle. Then they got the Steelers, Jags and Bills. So that's the most difficult strength of schedule through the first four games since 1986, when the Eagles had a winning percentage with their opponents of over. 700. All righty. We got basketball coming up today tonight, a pair of game sixes. Looking at the point spreads, the spurs are now favored by five and a half. It was four and a half yesterday. And the Pistons are getting three and a half against the Cavaliers. Fritz, he's here. Dylan's here. Marv. Polyures. Truly backroom guys as well. And you at home are on the road poll question for the first hour of the program. Yeah, Dan. Well, since we're just talking about the season opener, who would you rather see the Seahawks play in the season opener? Chiefs, Cowboys, Rams or 49ers? These are all teams they'll be playing at home this season. Well, they can't do the Rams or 49ers because they're in Australia. Yeah, you don't. I don't want to waste a Cowboys game opening. Chiefs. We don't know If Mahomes is going to play, I. It feels like you can put. I mean, you want to have a great game, but I don't know if it matters that much because you're going to watch. It's the first game, standalone game. I mean, I don't want to see Seattle against Arizona, but I would. I mean, I'd be. Jeremiah Love would be interesting to see against that Seattle defense, but I, I don't want to waste games. I think there's a curiosity factor. And once again, it goes back to Mike Brable. Your girlfriends or your wives may not have had any idea who Mike Brable was or cared about Mike Brable, and he was in the super bowl last year. Now, you might get curiosity seekers here, maybe, and hopefully it's a good game. Yes. Paulie, how is that story covered? Well, that's what I want to know leading up to that game, and that's on NBC. How does NBC Football Night in America cover that as far as doing a feature? Do you get to sit down with Rabel? You're going to talk to the coach? What do you ask the coach? I think you do something chronologically about super bowl. Everything that's happened. Hopefully nothing else happens if you're a Patriots fan or Mike Brable. But how much, boy, I think you got to be fair and say, how much of a sports story is this? Because that's. That was my approach when we, you know, the story first happened. I really have to look at it as a sports story. I don't know Mike Brable. I know Diana Rossini. And I was trying to be fair to tmz. Everybody else can cover that part of it that I had to look at the sports element here. In my, my viewpoint, my angle was, is Rabel, what kind of information was he sharing? Because he's, you know, clearly sharing information with the reporter. How did that affect, how'd that impact players, teams? You know, that was the interesting part. Now, we haven't really heard much. People are, you know, combing the Internet, going back and looking at interviews, comments, situations when he was in Tennessee. And, you know, are you helping steer somebody, your team away from your team getting a job, going through the media? Yes, Dylan. Now, we've obviously got like a few months before the season starts, which in Internet years is like an eternity. Do you think if nothing else comes out about this, it sort of dies down by the season, or is it kind of going to go dormant and then ramp up again when the season starts? I think when, when you sit down and you Talk to him. When you talk to Vrabel, I mean, you have to ask. And it's the distraction question. How. How much of a distraction, I don't want to say has this been a distraction? Because it's easy for Mike Vaughel to go. It hasn't. How much of a. Just now he can still say it hasn't been, but I want to help him along a little bit and say, how much of a distraction has this been? And you might get one question and they might put a capper on this with the Patriots. They are pretty tough when it comes to. When you go in there and ask questions. Yes. Dylan, it might be some interesting road games this season. Oh, absolutely. I mean, look at what the Chargers did. Yeah. Chargers play the Patriots. They came out with their schedule release. They, they went there. Albert Breer, I think, said he was like, there will be definitely at least one team that does something. Yes. And the Chargers play the Patriots. It'd be great if they open the season against each other with the schedule release. That would have been a lot of fun. Yes. Todd, if you ask the distraction question and the Patriots allow it and they allow say a second question or a follow up, what exactly would be that follow up? When Mike Vrabel says, I'm like, you know what, it's been a bit of a distraction, I made some poor choices or whatever, he says. But we move on and we're ready to and we're excited to start the season, then what would be an acceptable follow up question to that? What was the message you sent to your team when you got them together? Now, once again, when you do these interviews, they're taped like my interviews are 99.9% live and you'll hear a question, you'll hear an answer. And normally you might take that out. If I'm doing an interview like I did during the super bowl week where I sat down with Tom Brady before they played the Eagles. Well, you might take out a question or an answer just because it wasn't good. And that might be the case that, let's say you send Jason Garrett to Foxborough to sit down with Mike Vrabel, like coach to coach, and you ask that question, you don't get a good answer out of it. Now, you might leave it in because you want people to know that you at least asked the question. Because that happens a lot of times on this show. You're going to ask a question. You may not get a good answer, but you want to at least be on record as trying to get A good answer. Somebody who's forthcoming, going to share something there. But Football night in America, I think you got to broach the topic. Maybe, you know, from 10,000ft. Broach the topic. But I mean, we've seen super bowl runner up, teams that lose, that don't make the playoffs the following year. That used to be a big trend. Yes, Dylan. And if I'm Mike Rabel and I get asked that question, if is it like, has it been a distraction? I'm just gonna be like, no, not really. How has it been a distraction? Is how. Is what I would say. I'd be like, it hasn't. I don't know what you're talking about. Okay, then I would say, have you, you know, how did you talk to your address this topic with your team? I'm gonna invoke the fifth Amendment. I'm not answering any questions. Yes, Paul, I think if Mike Brable took that path, it would make the situation worse. If he was defiant and blew it off, it would actually make it worse for himself. Yeah, I think you got to get it out of the way. You know, maybe. Maybe you have somebody who looks at it as you take. Maybe it's a sympathetic approach that. Okay, man, he's gone through a lot. Hey, it's unfortunate for a lot of people involved, but you know what? I hope to be a better man, better husband, better coach. Like you can give. You can dress it up a little bit and come out a little bit better. A little bit better. Maybe not with the wives in the audience. Don't. Don't plead the Fifth. That never goes well. They're not going to care what his answer is, though. Anyways, like, it's everyone. The court of public opinion has made its mind up. The Patriot fans don't care. No, they didn't care. From the jump nationally, they'll care. Yes, Todd. But he could also say what he's already said. You know what? We've had some. I've had some uncomfortable personal conversations. I'll leave that in the locker room between me and my players. End the story. How about we take a break? We got phone calls coming up. Settle on a poll question. Busy show this meet Friday. We're back after this.

Best video release schedule Video release Raiders did a really good job. They. They did step brothers. And I thought Mendoza and Kirk Cousins. Kirk Cousins. I think he's going to be a great mentor to Fernando Mendoza. I really do. I think they're very similar people, and I think that helps. You know, it's not like, yes, there's the age difference, but I feel like they're probably both going to get in his minivan and go to Kohl's and get some plaid shirts. I really do. But step brothers can't go wrong. One of my favorite movies, Chargers. I expected the Chargers to be an assassin, and they were. Who'd you have? Trevor Lawrence. Did he cut his hair? You know, I think. I think most of us went, nah, he's not cutting his hair. Not. Not for a schedule release video. Yes, Paul, There's a lot of mixed reports about Trevor Lawrence's hair. And as journalists were on this story, it looks like he may have. Yeah, I'd be disappointed. Yeah, I think the prince, you know, with that hair, his haircut flowing out of the back of his helmet. I remember Freddie Belitnikov with the Raiders. I don't know how much hair he had on the top of his head, but when you have a helmet that's all you need to have that party in the back. And Freddie Blitnikov, he looked faster because he had the hair flowing. I think Golden Richards with the Cowboys might have had a little flow as well. Little hustle and flow. Yes. Paulie, some of these videos must take months and rights. And producing. The Napa Colts did one with the Simpsons, and it looks like a feature film. It's unbelievable. All right, get some phone calls in here. Any other video releases that stood out? Yes, Dylan, I saw the Bucks. They did a Baywatch dude edition. The Bert Kreischer was in there with Baker Mayfield and some of the offensive linemen. Nobody was more disappointed than Fritzi. Then he heard the Baywatch theme, and then he clicks on and he says, a bunch of dudes. Harry Chassis running in slow motion. They got to do me like that. That's not cool. Buddha in San Francisco leads us off. Hi, Buddha. What's on your mind today? Nobody happy me Friday, boys. Let's go, birthday boy. Feliz, dp, I hope you enjoy some great tequila tonight. And Dan, quickly to comment on the poll question from yesterday about LeBron. I hope the Lakers move on and get this new run era started, man. I mean, it's time. And honestly, if LeBron moves on with. He can win a fourth championship with another franchise, which will make it four different teams. I mean, then what's wrong with that? That's all good. And I have to say, dp, I loved the Jamal Crawford interview this week. It's still in my mind. It was so good. And he's such a great interview as well. Yes. I mean, it was so funny because he was so confused when you ask him about who's the best analyst. And he thought you were asking him about, like, breaking down the game on TV and all that. And you wanted to know who's the best at breaking angles, man. Like, that was great. And lastly, dp, addressing the elephant in the room. Todd, you're upcoming. What is that? What is that on a Friday? I'm sorry it's not your birthday. I need to drop about 30, but I don't. Elephant is a little hard. Oh, okay. I'm sorry, Buddha. The elephant in the room. Yeah, yeah, the elephant in the room. Your daughter's speech. Your upcoming daughter's speech at the wedding. So this is my advice. Make sure your passion bucket is full and give that speech then with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind, baby. Thank you, Buddha. Lot of advice. I asked for it. Getting a lot of advice. And that's fine, because then I'M going to shut it down. Once we get to the beginning of August. No more advice. I'm taking notes. I, I, I, I have a, I have a strategy. I'm going to make it great. I am going to make it one of the great speeches of all time. I am. Yes, Paulie, it's like you've purged it with a conversation. I think so. I'm like, I'm getting all of this angst out. Yeah, it's done. I'll get some tears. First time I see my daughter in her wedding dress, I'll cry then get that out. Maybe not cry too much. We walk down the aisle. We walk down in unison. We walk down in strength, arm and arm. Here we go. Let. Yes, Paulie, we're calling the, the moment. Tears then beers. Okay. A couple cold ones ready for you afterwards. Tears, then cheers, then beers. There you go. Thank you. We're shopping. Yes. Dylan, if I get you the scroll for your birthday, would you use it? I think it would add a nice look. Like a, Like a Latin scroll. Yeah, yeah. You know, it unfurls. You're reading off of. Has a regal kind of. Once again, my wife keeps saying to me, don't make it jokey. And I said, okay, I won't. Scroll's very serious, but I'm gonna have fun with it. There'll be light hearted moments. I'm gonna try to crush them. That's all. Yes, Todd, your personality and sense of humor. And I'm not just saying this because it's your birthday, but why would anyone want you to squash that? You're not doing a standup routine, but to try to be devoid of any kind of humor or charisma or personality wouldn't suit who you are. Okay. But my wife reminds me all the time, not everybody get. Everybody gets your sense of humor. That's all. That's all she's saying that you might think something's funny, but people might not get that. Playing to a larger crowd. Younger, older, different demos here. You know, I got to kind of bring, I got to be inclusive, that's all. Yes, Dylan, what if you have like a speaker set up with a laugh track just in case? Well, I was thinking of putting Seaton in the audience. It's not a bad idea. Yeah. And just to laugh. That's it. It's got to get his timing right there. Yeah. And Darius Rucker, so I don't know if that would be a weird invitation for Darius. I just need you to laugh. You don't have to sing. Just Laugh. Yes. Todd Seaton, Yes. But that Uzi kind of said that's kind of what Darius does. That's like you're firing off a bunch of shots. I don't know if you want that one. Thank you, Todd. Welcome, Chris in Syracuse. Hi, Chris. What's on your mind today? Hey, thanks, Dan. Hey, we're talking Fred Bulletnikov, a lot of hair and a lot of stickum. I got two things to throw at you, and I have a birthday present for you. Arizona Cardinals vs. New York jets maybe end up being the Arch Manning Bowl. And if Cleveland somehow ends up winning a championship this year, does that make Cleveland, in LeBron's mind now less attractive as a destination since they won without him and maybe risk becoming Kevin Durant? And, Dan, today's May 15th. I want to wish you a happy birthday. I hope you have a wonderful birthday weekend. And I want to shoehorn this into May 15, May 16, and May 17. Now, on May 16, a few years back, Dan, you said Taylor Swift and Kelsey would end up getting married, and you ended up being exactly right when all the rest of us thought it was a stunt, including Todd. And Todd, I believe made with you on that, which I don't think he's ever paid back. And I'd like to get some partial payment for a birthday present for you in the form of a color is always Great segment with Fritzi. Now, Fritzi, May 16th leads us to May 17th, which just happens to be your wife Jen's birthday. You have a wonderful birthday on Sunday. Now, Todd, when mid May rolls around. And Danny, Jen's birthdays arrived because of your working relationship with Dan and all he's done for your career. Doesn't his birthday res a lot more with you and is much more important to you than the ball and chain at home, gents. You know what? I can't argue with that. I know Dan, like, longer than I know my wife. Well, I went with I know Dan from watching him then to working with him. And as much as I love my wife, you know, I know where my bread is buttered. And the Dan Patrick show has a special meaning for me. And walking down the aisle and having kids with her, that kind of takes a backseat to my relationship with Daniel Theodore Patrick, it has to be said, it's a little uncomfortable, but I got to admit it. Thank you, Todd. He's right. Chris and Sirius, great research with the bir birthdays. By the way. I said, when Taylor Swift, Travis Kelsey get married, I get to smash you with a wedding cake. Yeah, I believe Was that the. Yes, that. Was that the plan? Yeah. Yeah, that's what we'll do then. That was what, two years ago? Two years ago tomorrow that I think I made that declaration. I never thought it was a publicity stunt, but I did think this was going to just be drawn out and it was going to be one of those Oprah Steadman, like, we're never gonna actually get married. We're gonna say we're together now. They haven't set a date to get married, but there are preparations, I believe, in Rhode island, at her home, that they're going to get married perhaps this summer, perhaps in July. Yes. Paul, how do you hide that wedding? You don't. No, you can't. You try. No, I don't think you can. I think it's too big that. You know, it's like when Sean Penn married Madonna and they had all kinds of tents erected so the paparazzi in helicopters couldn't get pictures. But they did get pictures, you know, of part of the reception with Madonna. And, you know, Sean Penn used to fight with the paparazzi all the time because of them taking pictures with, you know, one of the most famous people on the planet. Go figure. But I don't. I. I think Kelsey's been really good at kind of accepting that this goes along with the territory with Taylor Swift. And, you know, he's famous in the spotlight now. He's not this famous, but you have to embrace this. It's like if you're going to be married to Jlo, you got to embrace it. Because if you don't, or Jennifer Aniston or any of these really famous women, you got to be ready. And I think Kelsey's done a really good job of that. Yes. Dill. I've seen Taylor Swift's house in Rhode island, too. It is not like it's like tucked away in the woods or anything. It is like. It's basically like off Main Street. And the town that it's in, well, it's backs up to the water. Yes. I mean, it's. It's wide open there, but it's. There gets a lot of traffic going by. Like, you can't be like, we're having a secret wedding, Gaston. And as much as you may dislike the paparazzi and the find you everywhere, you. You got to be respectful and understanding of your wife's career and how famous she is. Well, you can't, you know, start pushing people, trying to try to knock them over with. With your car or something. It's going to have Such a negative effect on her. So you have to somehow deal with I don't know if he's going to run over like the Britney Spears. There are people that like, you know, they take it into their hands where they're throwing punches or they try to run somebody. Travis Kelsey is watching so he's getting Todd's advice on being important. Be respectful of Taylor Swift. Don't really in Ohio. Hi, David. Hey Dan. Just wanted to wish you a half. I got two things. Just want to wish you a happy birthday. Thanks for always taking my call. Let me roast the cowboys and everything else. And my other comment is for Dylan. Our dog keeps waking up our baby and we're looking at a really good shot collar. So I didn't know if he knew any brands or anything that would maybe help with that situation. So thank you. All right. Thank you, David. Yeah, Dylan wore the shock collar. Lost a bit and got shocked like eight or nine times. It's tucked away for a rainy day now. Yeah, but get the green one. I don't know what it's called but it's green. This for a special occasion. Bring out the shock collar. You never know. Russell in Philadelphia. Hi Russell. Hey Dan. 61 2, 15, member of the DDC. Wanted to tell you happy birthday. Enjoy your weekend. You share your birthday with my uncle Russell out in Tacoma. 30 year veteran of the United States Navy, retired. So again I just wanted to wish you a happy birthday. Go birds. And oh by the way, you see my Phillies have won five straight. Yeah. Series. So we're rolling. All righty. Yeah. And said Donnie, baseball magic you got. Yes. And Schwarber hit like a league leading 18th home run yesterday. How about those Phillies? He's one of my favorite players. I just, I find it fascinating that that guy gets up there and has that kind of swing and he's going to take you deep if you make a mistake. Yes. Morph a little bit more baseball news. The Chicago White Sox have a winning record. Yay. They're 22 and 21. Who knew? Yes. Dylan, I just realized something. I think I'm the only one in the room in the alive dads club which being in here might be the kiss of death. Why are you bringing that up? I just, I was just an observation. Yeah, but couldn't you done that privately? I. No, I could have, I guess. Yeah. I'm not bragging. I mean it's. No, it feels like I'm worried about my dad now. No, but it's a left turn. Yeah. My dad's dead. Great. You happy? I'm sorry for bringing that up. On your birthday. Todd's dad dead. Yep. Paulie's dad dead. Marvin's dad was dead to him. Is now dead. Great, Dylan. That shouldn't be a jinx to your dad just because you're in a room with people. I don't know. Dad's passed away. It's like Typhoid Mary. I don't want to root against him. I feel like you are. No, but it feels like you're making me root against him, brother. That'd be on you. I'm. I'm. I would be rooting against you, but not your dad. Well, that I'm used to. Yeah. Yes, Paul. Showing off with your fancy live dad, rubbing our faces like. I thought about it for a while. I didn't mean it like that, Paul. I swear. Yeah, My dad can't be here on my birthday. You want my dad to come? Yeah. You're gonna parade your dad around the man cave. Look how cool this is, guys. Who misses their dad the most? Poll question. I would say Marvin is going to finish last in this. Oh, easily, easily. Yeah. If a tree falls in the woods, does it make a sound? Well, Paul's dad died when he was 11. Eleven? On Halloween. Yeah. Yeah. I'll give Paul the most traumatic one. Yeah, his dad ruined Halloween for him. It wasn't his fault to blame one on others. Hence the lawsuit. Yes, Paul. But you could say, though, when your dad dies at 11, you just kind of go on with your life. There's not really much you could do. But when you have kids, you start thinking, oh, he's missing this stuff. That's where it comes back. Yeah, but it just meant more work for me to be a father figure to you. Thank you, Dan. That's the problem. And with Fritzi, it's a lot of pressure. And Marvin and I don't get anything on Father's Day from you guys. Yeah, sure. It's a Sunday, isn't it? It's. It doesn't matter what day it is. It's Father's Day. Oh. Like I'm sort of a stepfather by proxy father. Oh, you might be a replace. I might be a real dad now. You're a cool uncle. Oh, I'm not. Okay, you're more cool uncle. That shows you things that dads and moms may not and go out for beers. Yes, Marvin. Rich, older, white dad was not on my bingo card, but I'm glad I got him. Dan, if you're a father figure to the people in this room. I hate to break it to you, but you might have failed. Wow. On his birthday. Okay, your dad's alive and now you're gonna rip. I'm just feeling myself, I guess. I'll be damned. McLovin is here. Andrew, out of the bullpen. Yeah, why don't we bring me. All right, see you guys. Take a break. Take a break. Play of the day Next.

Today is significant because it marks your myriad contributions to a cynical, cynical world. Thus, I think it only fitting and proper to render you military courtesies of respect and admiration to you on your birthday. So if I may, Dan Danettes, backroom guys, attention. For those who love to rock sports, we salute you, Dan. Happy birthday, stud. Thank you, Colonel. Wait. Am I allowed to salute? I don't. I don't know. Colonel. Am I allowed to salute? Absolutely, Dan. With your father's service and all your service to our nation, absolutely. All right. Okay. I guess I kind of get in on a technicality. My dad served. You know, I tried to join the vfw, Veterans of Foreign War, and then they have something for, like, the relatives or sons or family of those who served. And I couldn't find my dad's information from serving in Korea. And so I can't join the vf. I just wanted to join the VFW because that's where my dad would take me. And we'd. I'd sit at the bar, and it was the vfw, and I'd have a Fanta, an orange Fanta, and I'd sit at the bar. My dad would have a Schlitz, and he would have a shot of whiskey or two. So on a Saturday, I'd be going to the bar and sitting there with my dad. Now, I had three other brothers, and, you know, it was a treat to go and sit at the bar. And I just. I was going to try to join the VFW so I could sit at the bar. So I could bring my son, who's now 34, to sit at the bar. Yes, Paul. So you need to find your dad's military records. Yeah, we were looking. Do you want me to make some calls? Well, we may know a guy. My. My brother. My oldest brother was going to help me, and there's a VFW right across the street from the man cave. And I thought it'd be nice maybe, you know, Friday beers, go over there, have a couple of Miller lights. Maybe the I team can get on this. But. Yeah. Yes, yes, Dylan, Famously cheap beers at the. Oh, I know. That's another reason. Yeah, yeah. But I'd like to. I'd like to get in. Into the vfw. Were you ever a beer In a shot. Guy like your dad. No, I don't think I've ever seen you take a shot. No, I never did because my dad did. Like I, I saw what it did to him, to everyone. And you know, it was. He used to hide it in our pantry. I remember we had vanilla wafers and there was a box there, but behind it was Wild Turkey. This it was called. It was Kessler whiskey. Well, if you smelled it or tasted it, you'd never want it again. And just like the beer that he would have, he'd have Blatts, Schlitz, Wiedemann. And we never, it wasn't any, the beer wasn't good, so we didn't drink it because he'd always say, you guys never took my beer. I'm like, no, it's not any good. Yes, Paul Kessler whiskey. Smooth as silk. It said on the bottle. Seems like that's probably not. And even smoking cigarettes, I never did that because my dad used to smoke Camel non filter. And it killed him. Yeah, it killed him. Yes, Todd. I would have done the opposite. I would have had the whiskey out front to block the cookies. I don't want to share my box of Nilla wafers with anybody. Jay in Delaware. Hi, Jay. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan. First off, of course, I just want to wish you a happy birthday. And unlike Dylan there, I do look at you as a great father figure. I'm 40 years old, so I've listened to you most of my adult life and you've given great advice to a lot of your, quote, young, younger listeners to heed by. And I was a big fan of the Falcons, Steelers and Raiders schedule release Falcons with the old Sports center commercials. That was funny. I probably laughed the entire time. Matt Ryan was great. And how you feel about the Steelers one. You guys have a great weekend. Great birthday. Dave, I didn't, I didn't see the Steelers one. Did you guys see the Steelers video? Yeah, I didn't see it.

The crew celebrates with food, humor, and introspection while diving deep into the release of the NFL schedule, especially the drama surrounding the upcoming NFL opening game—a Super Bowl rematch between the Seahawks and Patriots. The show features candid discussions on NFL schedule quirks, media coverage of off-field drama (notably Mike Vrabel’s situation), and plenty of signature Dan Patrick banter.
This episode captures the best of the Dan Patrick Show: sports intelligence, personal warmth, and irreverent humor. The crew honors Dan’s milestone birthday, scrutinizes the NFL’s season kickoff drama, and ponders the intersection of sports, media, and personal life. With fans calling in, off-the-cuff jokes, and savvy takes on both the NFL’s present and its recent pop culture forays, this hour serves up a highly entertaining and well-rounded start to the day’s broadcast.
