Episode Overview

In this lively and wide-ranging hour, Dan Patrick and his crew dive into the evolving storylines of the new NFL season, focusing on "perception games" set to define teams' reputations early on. The hosts riff on everything from the Chiefs' offense without Tyreek Hill, the mystery of the Bengals' lackluster wins, to the new Mahomes-Kelsey steakhouse in Kansas City. A highlight is their irreverent "Hot Coaches Draft" and comic brainstorming of steakhouse menu items inspired by Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. There’s also a pause for heartfelt remembrance of September 11th and conversations with listeners about sports culture and athlete-owned restaurants.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. NFL "Perception Games" and Shifting Narratives

(08:08–14:00, 25:32–26:32)

• Green Bay Packers & Commanders:
  • A major matchup tonight, with the Packers poised to cement themselves atop the NFC if they notch another big win. Dan introduces the "perception game" concept:

    "This is one of those perception...there's a couple of perception games coming up this week. This is the first one with the Commanders going to Green Bay." (08:53)

  • The Commanders are still a mystery; Dan admires their story but wants to "see how they win, not just that they win."
• Chiefs as Underdogs:
  • Speculation about Kansas City, rare underdogs at home, and what another loss might do to their aura:

    "Is this the second time in his [Mahomes’s] career he's been an underdog at home?...If the Chiefs lose again...maybe this is the year that they don't make the playoffs." (09:13)

  • Comparisons to Patriots’ era: Style points matter less for some teams, but others, like the Bengals, are under scrutiny for how they win.
• Bengals’ Ugly Wins:
  • The crew critiques Cincinnati’s win:

    "That's one of the worst wins in NFL history. Do we have a list of worst wins in NFL history?...I'm going to bring this up to Nick Wright and Derek Carr." (09:53)

2. 49ers QB Crisis & Mac Jones Speculation

(10:24–12:49)

• Brock Purdy and George Kittle are likely out, fueling speculation that the Niners might turn to Mac Jones.
• Dan and the crew dissect Jones' sporadic success and failures in New England, expressing cautious optimism about him in San Francisco’s system.
  • Notable moment:

    "I think when they have their weapons, Mac Jones is a capable quarterback. That doesn’t sound like a compliment." (11:40–11:54)

3. The Mahomes–Kelce Steakhouse Opening: Fan Polls & Menu Mayhem

(05:00–06:21, 13:12–16:20, 22:02–25:04)

• New steakhouse “1587” opens in Kansas City; Nick Wright’s going to the soft opening.
• Debate: Would you sit at Mahomes’s or Kelce’s (with Taylor Swift!) table?
  • Seaton jokes about acting oblivious:

    “I would sit with Kelsey and act like I didn’t know who Taylor Swift was...‘So what do you do?’” (05:46–05:57)

  • Paulie demurs, saying he'd be too tongue-tied with Taylor Swift at the table.
• Menu Brainstorm: Todd’s absurd menu names mash up football and Taylor Swift puns (e.g., "Tay Tater Tots," "We Are Never Ever Getting Baby Back Ribs Together," "Look What You Made Me Eat" sundae).
  • Dan, amused but exasperated:

    "You made it too much about Taylor Swift...but that’s the fun part." (24:53–25:00)

• Audience Poll: "Whose table would you sit at?"
  • Early vote leader is Mahomes, though Dan suspects Swift fans might swing it for Kelce.

4. Fan Calls & Listener Engagement

(28:28–33:14, 35:06–37:13, 37:51–39:44)

• On Fritzi’s Menu Brainstorms:
  • Listeners ask if Todd’s puns are solo inventions or if his wife helps; Todd admits his wife’s more cautious:

    "I would definitely run that by the guys before you start saying that actually on the air." (29:07)

• 9/11 Remembrance:
  • Emotional personal reflection by Dan, who had worked in the World Trade Center’s 18th floor and had family members among NYC firefighters:

    “24 years ago...I went and got my children out of school because at that point nobody knew anything...It just is...still fresh.” (30:25–32:30)

• NFL Hot Coach Draft:
  • Comedy bit spawned by a listener’s wife calling Lions OC Ben Johnson “good looking.”
  • Paulie, Seaton, and Todd argue over who’s the hottest coach ("Kevin O’Connell, I would hit on him in the right setting," – Todd, 36:02), joking about the NFC North’s “handsome coach” dominance.

5. Athlete-Owned Restaurants: Tales from the Road

(37:51–40:48)

• Dan, Paulie, and crew reminisce about visiting athlete-owned steakhouses (e.g., Ditka’s, Don Shula’s, John Elway’s, Billy Sims’) and the unique atmospheres these places provide.
  • Dan on Ditka’s:

    “That was testosterone on tap...There was always drama, always something going on.” (39:18–39:43)

  • Commentary on why Dan would never open a restaurant as an athlete: too many headaches.

6. Lamar Jackson Incident & Fan Behavior

(26:32–27:55, 33:14–34:44)

• Dan and Paulie analyze the NFL’s low-key handling of Lamar Jackson’s altercation with a fan in Buffalo:
  • Dan:

    “Getting an apology from Lamar Jackson...the fan was wrong, but I'm wrong too. I should never have engaged with him...His reaction is not wrong, but it is wrong in the moment, because then, if it gets uglier and you're on the road, that's what you want to guard against.” (27:55)

• Fan banned indefinitely from all NFL stadiums after throwing a bottle; Dan recommends community service as penance, Todd jokes:

  “While he’s doing the community service, can people just randomly smack him in the back of the head?" (34:44)

7. Health Sidebar: Dan’s "Flu Game"

(48:54–53:18)

• Dan shares a personal anecdote about getting shingles, flu, and COVID shots all in one go and feeling rough the next day.
• Crew draws comparison to the "Michael Jordan flu game," with Paulie as the Pippen stand-in:

  "Is today your flu game? This might be my Jordan flu game." – Todd (51:45)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On NFL Perceptions:

  "There are certain teams that we want to know how you won the game...like the Bengals, they’re on my short list. It’s how they win games that I’m going to be curious about." – Dan Patrick (09:53)

• Joking About Taylor Swift at Dinner:

  "So you couldn’t have written it down to say ‘speak to Dan after?’...I’d rather just do it this way." – Seaton (04:54–04:59)

• Making Fun of Mahomes’ Voice Rising:

  "How did he describe me? Capable." – Paulie (11:54) "Oh, your voice went up." – Dan (12:04)

• On Hot Coaches:

  "I would hit on Kevin O’Connell in the right...setting. He’s a very good-looking guy." – Todd (36:02)

An early hand raised from Seton. Yes, Seaton.

[Seaton]

What if there's a little bit of a calling here or possibly a movement, grassroots movement, for a Thursday steak and eggs situation, Maybe regularly.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Seaton]

Maybe we even throw it earlier in the week if you want to, so you don't go back to back, you know, Thursday, steak and eggs Friday, meet Friday.

[Dan Patrick]

He probably could have conferred with me off the air. He kind of put me on the spot.

[Seaton]

It just happened whilst on the air. We just had to get right on.

[Dan Patrick]

So you couldn't have written it down to say speak to Dan after? No. Okay.

[Seaton]

I'd rather just do it this way.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay. By the way, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey have a steakhouse in Kansas City that's opening up. I don't know if they're using Heartland, but they should. It's 1587. Nick Wright's going to join us a little later on. Nick is going to the soft opening there. How about this question? You can sit at Patrick Mahomes's table or you can sit at Travis Kelsey's table. Steak dinner. And they're going to bring their significant others. Oh, yeah. I mean it's a no brainer. You sit with Kelsey. That's all. I mean Mahomes. Hey, Patrick, Good to see you. Kelsey, tell me that story again. You know the time that you and your brother went out.

[Seaton]

Yes, I think I would sit with Kelsey and act like I didn't know.

[Dan Patrick]

Who Taylor Swift was.

[Seaton]

Like, so what do you do? Yeah, so what do you do?

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, you're a singer.

[Seaton]

Oh, no kidding. That's awesome.

[Dan Patrick]

Anything I know anybody who could sing for a living.

[Seaton]

I'm just really impressed with that.

[Dan Patrick]

Do you like locally or are you a singer, songwriter? Do you play guitar? You play guitar?

[Seaton]

There's not like cover band, tribute band like that. You just your own originals.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, great.

[Todd]

Do you have enough songs to make a concert? How many songs do you have out there? Should I be familiar with?

[Dan Patrick]

Okay, is anybody sitting with Mahomes if you go to the steakhouse? Yeah, Paulie, I, I think I'm sitting.

[Paulie]

With my homes because I don't think I could relax and be a good conversationalist with Taylor Swift at the table. I think I would whiff.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, but you don't have to say anything. You can just acknowledge her and kind of just make her catch up with you with your conversation with Travis Kelsey. Yeah, make her jump in just a little bit. So Nick Wright will join us. Coming up a little bit later on, Derek Carr, brother of David Carr who had a great appearance yesterday. So Derek Carr, former NFL quarterback, now an analyst on YouTube. He'll join us. We'll have in or out. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for downloading the app. We got football tonight. This is one of those perception. There's a couple of perception games coming up this week. This is the first one with the commanders going to Green Bay. Green Bay, great performance. Week one, you beat the Lions. Now if you beat another playoff team now all of a sudden, depending on what happens with the Eagles now we'll look at the packers as the team to beat in the nfc. It happens that quickly. What if the Chiefs lose? They're underdogs, I think Mahomes is this the second time in his career he's been an underdog at home. If the Chiefs lose again, once again, perception wise, maybe this is the year that they don't make the playoffs. And if the Eagles, if the Eagles lose, I think will be okay. You know, that's a tough place to go in and play. After the opener, everything that's happened with Jalen Carter, they didn't play particularly well, but you ended up getting the win and going to Kansas City. Now, but you start to look at these games and you go, do we know how good Detroit is? We think we know. And with Kansas City, we think we know there's other ones that, oh, we do know. Like Green Bay looks like we do know. I don't know about the commanders. I love the story. I don't know. Chargers, I don't know. Steelers. I don't know. Like most of the teams. I don't know. Like the Bengals. That's one of the worst wins in NFL history. Do we have a list of worst wins in NFL history? I wish had seven yards in the second half. And I want to bring this up to both Nick Wright and Derek Carr. There are certain teams that we want to know how you won the game. It's not that you won the game. Patriots did this. There was a while where we'd go, yeah, barely squeaked by, but they won. Kansas City didn't you know, for me, it was just they won. May not be pretty, but they won. But like the Bengals, I, they're on my short list of teams that I'm watching how you win again. Now, I'm going to give them credit. They finally got out of the gate and won a game in week one. But you're playing a Browns team that, I mean, the offense and defense didn't look that good. And this is supposed to be the most potent offense in the NFL. It's how they win games that I'm going to be curious about. Buffalo, how do you win these games? Are you going to have a defense? Are you going to be in shootouts all year long? The Ravens, how are you winning games? Are you building up big leads and then holding on for dear life? So there's certain one Philadelphia, I'm, I'm past the, you know, style points. Just did they win the game? But there are certain teams where I'm looking to see how did you win that game instead of just you won the game. 8773 DP Show Email address DP danpatrick.com Twitter handle @dp Brock Purdy likely out. You got George Kittle, who is definitely out, and M. Jones, come on down. Here's Kyle Shanahan, the Niners head coach, on his quarterback situation. Any further sense about whether Brock will be able to play on Sunday?

[Paulie]

I think it's a long shot.

[Todd]

Is it possible that Pie's injury could.

[Dan Patrick]

Be a multi week thing? That's possible. And that's the toe more so than the shoulder? Yes. Did someone step on his foot in the pocket? Do you know how the toe injury happened? Yeah, I think it happened scrambling. I think when Love tackled him by the sideline. I believe it happened. Were you aware playing through that in the game or is just something you found out later that was where. Yeah. Well, that doesn't sound good. And if it's a. There's certain injuries that stay with you that they really never heal over the course of a season just because of how you play. Just the sport itself. A sprained ankle feels like it's, you know, always going to be there. It'll heal, but all it takes is one little twist, tweak, and then it's back again. Shoulder injury, that can stay with you. A toe injury. I mean, unless you're not walking at all or running at all, then maybe it'll heal. But that is an ominous start for the Niners. Yes.

[Paulie]

Paulie, you guys pretty curious about Mac Jones with the Niners?

[Dan Patrick]

I knew that they liked him coming out of the draft.

[Paulie]

Yeah. He his rookie year, 10 and 7, is the starter, 22 touchdowns, second for offensive rookie of the year. And it just cooled off the next two years. He showed a lot of promise.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes. I think in that now when they have all their weapons. They don't have all their weapons, but I think when they have their weapons, Mac Jones is a capable quarterback. That doesn't sound like a compliment.

[Paulie]

Capable.

[Dan Patrick]

I know. Hey, what did Dan Patrick. How did he describe me? Capable.

[Paulie]

How about a guy who could win you ball games?

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

Oh, your voice went up.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, my bad. Yeah. Yeah. Seaton.

[Seaton]

At one point he showed the ability to play at this level.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, he did. Yeah.

[Seaton]

When he had a real offensive coordinator, he absolutely showed that he could play at this level. And then when you took that away.

[Dan Patrick]

He did. And then he was in Jacksonville. I mean, what happened to him was malpractice with the Patriots. I mean they didn't 100%. They didn't give him a chance.

[Seaton]

No.

[Dan Patrick]

Now can he do the same thing that Sam Darnold did? Get kicked to the Curb couple places then all of a sudden maybe you get to play play your way back into just like Sam Darnold and you know he got that one year deal with Seattle. But yeah, I'm. I'm fine with M. Jones. Yeah. Yes.

[Todd]

Marvin, is Robert style running the offense?

[Dan Patrick]

No.

[Todd]

Okay, good. Yeah cuz the Patriots defensive coordinator was running the Patriots offense.

[Dan Patrick]

Still amazing.

[Todd]

I can't believe that.

[Dan Patrick]

Still amazing. By the way the Commanders are getting three and a half against the packers and the over under is 48 and a half. Seaton what's poll question today?

[Seaton]

Well we're definitely going with whose table would you sit at?

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Seaton]

Patrick's or Travis?

[Dan Patrick]

Yes. Yeah.

[Seaton]

Currently the hottest bandwagon right now. Chargers, commanders, packers, other.

[Dan Patrick]

Buccaneers might be on there.

[Paulie]

Yep.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah there's a lot. There's an outpouring of support love for Tampa Bay back to couple guys have them going to the super bowl in that Owen 2 stat and if you buy into it since the merger, since 1970, AFC, NFC merger, eight teams have started out 02 and made the conference championship game. Last time it happened, the Bengals 2014 Colts, the Giants in oh7, Eagles in O3 Pats in oh1, jets in 1998, Patriots 1996 and the Cowboys 1993. There is something to that with Kansas City. It feels like the first four games you're going to figure it out. I have complete trust in them now. We keep doing now we did this to Brady almost a year in and year out. Like who's my running back? Who are my wide receivers? Okay, I'll make the best of it. And Patrick Mahomes has done, you know, no Tyree Kill Kelsey slowing down. You got players who are injured, suspended, you know, you're not. It's not a vaunted offense anymore. But Mahomes changed the NFL because when he's throwing, you know, upwards of 50 touchdown passes, then all of a sudden defenses decided everything is going to be kept in front of them. We're going to play deep and we're going to make you go down the field. We're going to make you work. And David Carr talked about this yesterday. He said if I'm a defensive coordinator, what I want you to do is put together a 15 play drive. Let me see if you get first downs on third and eight or maybe there's a turnover or maybe we force you into a punt. You know, Kansas City was able to have big scoring plays, long scoring plays and then defenses just said hey, how deep do we need to be to keep everything in front of us. And that's why Mahomes numbers have been kind of pedestrian during the regular season. It's not that he's not as good as he once was. He just doesn't have those opportunities. And that's why Isaiah Pacheco is so important, because running the football, getting and even Mahomes, he was their leading rusher against the Chargers. And now do I like him running as much as he did in that first game? I don't. But that might be out of necessity. All right, so Thursday Night Football, Fritzi has come up with a menu. I said, could you come up with a menu of the Travis Kelsey Patrick Mahomes restaurant, the 1587, their jersey numbers. We'll have that after the break time.

[Todd]

We will do that.

[Dan Patrick]

How many items on the menu?

[Todd]

I have 16 items. We can bang them out real quick. I think they're fun.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Todd]

Possible menu suggested items for the 1587 Prime Steakhouse.

Mahomes and Travis Kelsey opening up a steakhouse in Kansas City this weekend. It's called 1587. Their jersey numbers. I asked Fritzi, I said could you come up with some mock items that would be on the menu. Paulie has the menu but maybe we could intersperse the mock items and the real items on the menu.

[Paulie]

Paulie, some of the real things. Tuna tartar. Dan, the appetizer.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

Carpaccio with wagyu beef. It's high end. No prices by the way which is always an interesting sign. The you like this? The 1587 chopped salad. There is fried chicken on the menu. That's lovely. Shrimp Diablo. The 33 burger. I'm not sure the reference there. 33 burger and they have a steak flight where you can get three different steaks and eat them like a beer flight or whatever.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Paulie]

Those are some of the real menu items.

[Dan Patrick]

Todd came up with some mock Items on the 1587 menu.

[Todd]

I had 16 items. I just added a 17th, which would be pork butker. So I thought pork butker might be something. I want to work in there. The other 16 that I put there were Tay tater tots.

[Dan Patrick]

All right. Taylor Swift. All right. Wait a minute. Hold on. Satan, you kind of. Okay. Tay Tay Tater tots.

[Todd]

Tater tots.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Todd]

Kel basa.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay. Kelsey.

[Todd]

Kermit the frog legs.

[Dan Patrick]

Gotta have that. It's not bad. Wow.

[Todd]

We're gonna take that off the menu.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't appreciate.

[Todd]

Chocolate vanilla strawberries. Shake it offs. Chocolate vanilla strawberries. Shake it off.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Todd]

Arrowhead cheese sticks.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know if I want that.

[Todd]

Arrowhead cheese sticks. I'll pass on that. I like mozzarella sticks. Maybe Big red snapper. Andy Reed's nickname. Big red. Big red snapper. How about some tight burnt ends? Tight burnt ends.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Todd]

That sounds lovely. Mac and chief. Mac and chief. We've got. You belong with meat. I don't know what kind of meat that is, but you belong with meat as opposed to. You belong with me. Frank Space pigs in blanket appetizer instead of blank space. Frank space. We're doing it. No one's ever done this before. Off of the songs of Taylor. Bad blood margarita. I would try that. I'm not a big drinker, but bad blood margarita.

[Paulie]

Bad bloody Mary.

[Todd]

Bad bloody Mary would be better. It's better.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Todd]

Enchanted enchiladas. I've tried the enchanted enchiladas. Anti three foot hero. The anti three foot hero. We are never ever getting baby back ribs together.

[Paulie]

Get out there.

[Dan Patrick]

Get out.

[Todd]

Get out.

[Dan Patrick]

That's it. Can you do it?

[Todd]

I have one more, but I could think is just as good. One more. I'm not gonna go with. I'm not gonna go with 22 buffalo wings, but the last one I was gonna go. Look what you made me eat. A giant ice cream sundae served in a tub sized bowl. Look what you made me eat.

[Dan Patrick]

I would have. I would have bowed out earlier. You made it too much about Taylor Swift.

[Todd]

But that's the fun part. That's how you have the fun.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, I know, but it's 1587. It's about them.

[Todd]

Yeah, but to come up with funny names.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, maybe.

[Seaton]

Maybe for breakfast they have Patrick Mahomes.

[Dan Patrick]

Fries Patrick Mahomes.

[Seaton]

And some Kelsey Dillos.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, okay, now we've got like 20.

[Todd]

Things on the menu.

[Dan Patrick]

We're rolling. Yeah, well, Nick Wright is going to the grand soft opening in Kansas City coming up this week. Oh, nice.

[Seaton]

I'm changing it. If I'm not a steak restaurant. Some Pacheco de Gallo special.

[Dan Patrick]

It's special. It's just a restaurant. Now, by the way, can you have two moral victories to start the season? The jets play the Bills, but if the jets keep it close like they did with Pittsburgh, moral victory. I know there's no substitute for a victory, but if you're the jets and you're looking for positive signs, Browns at the Ravens. If the Browns lose but they make it close, another one of those. I don't know. A good win. Moral victory. Yeah. Paulie.

[Paulie]

I think if I'm a Jets fan at the end of the year, I feel like we found our quarterback. That would be a win despite the record, because they've been looking for a long time. If Justin Fields is like a B, B plus player who's under contract, I think he's going to make $10 million next year, $12 million. And that's. That's a bargain.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. By the way, The Lamar Jackson, DeAndre Hopkins incident in that third quarter in Buffalo, the NFL and Lamar Jackson did a pretty good job of, let's wrap this up, you know, light apology, even though Lamar Jackson shouldn't apologize, but he said all the right things. He did the right thing. He took the high road with this. And that would be hard to do when you have a fan who's smacking you and your teammate. And it felt like maybe the NFL was saying to the Ravens, you guys handle this. We don't need to be involved in it. But, you know, getting an apology from Lamar Jackson, hey, the fan was wrong, but I'm wrong, too. I should never have engaged with him. I thought they did a nice job with that. Let's not make it a big deal. It's not an indictment in all Buffalo fans. But still, it was wrong. And his reaction is not wrong, in my opinion, but it is wrong in the moment. Because then all of a sudden, if it all, it gets uglier and you're on the road. That's what, you know, you want to guard against. Yeah. Pauline, It's Thursday.

[Paulie]

The NFL hasn't issued a statement, responded or issued any type of fine or punishment for Lamar. Do you think this is a behind the scenes NFL Lamar Jackson negotiation of how to deal with it?

[Dan Patrick]

I think they probably just said to John Harbaugh, hey, you guys handle this or their owner and just say, say the right things and apologize. A light apology, but you're going to, you know, take ownership in this. That's all. Because Lamar can't do what he did. Even though every one of us would have done the same thing. He knows he can't do that, and that's why he apologized for that. All right, couple of phone calls in here. Aaron in Virginia. Good morning, Aaron. What's on your mind today?

[Caller]

Hey, D.P.

[Dan Patrick]

Dana.

[Caller]

I just have a question for Fritzi. Want to know when you come up with all this stuff, like, is it a home in your downtime, do you incorporate? Like, do you ask your wife for help? Does she. She feed into it just all that well?

[Dan Patrick]

I asked Prissy to come up with the menu items, mock menu items. That was earlier this morning.

[Todd]

But it varies. Sometimes I'll think of something late at night or in the middle of the night, and I'll just jot something down and text myself. I'll. I've run a few things by my wife. Sometimes she's like. For the most part, she's like, I don't know.

[Dan Patrick]

That's.

[Todd]

That's.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't find that the same thing that I do pretty much.

[Todd]

She doesn't gong me or anything, but she's like, I would definitely run that by the guys before you start saying that actually on the air.

[Dan Patrick]

James in Virginia. Oh, big night. Big night. James in Virginia.

[Caller]

Thank you for taking my call, brother. Happy Thursday. Dt Damn it. Salute the Commanders, man, the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field and the Green Bay Packers. How do you not love what the Green Bay packers are doing as an organization? A team that prides themselves of building through the draft. A lot of great young players. They add Micah Parsons, unstoppable Thursday night, but they got a deal with Jaden Daniels and the Washington Commanders. They have the potential to have two back to back. Rookie of the year with Cross Merritt. This guy is explosive out of the backfield. I'm not saying he's Saquon, but he definitely elevates Washington's offense the way Saquon elevated Philly, man, they have Deebo Samuels, who is out on revenge. You're talking about, what if Green Bay wins? What if the Commanders win tonight? DP what is the NFL going to do with Jaden? 5. Man, I appreciate you guys. God bless America. We all know what today means. Y' all have a great day. Salute the commanders.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, Fritz, he has his 911T shirt 24 years ago. 24 years ago, right around this time. And I remember watching it. And then I went and got my children out of school because at that point nobody knew anything other than my brothers in law were New York City firemen. And we didn't hear from them until 11 o' clock at night. We had no idea if they were alive. But you know, even looking back, it's still fresh. It just is. Having worked in that building. I was on the 18th floor when I first started my career at CNN in New York. And I knew, I knew the whole layout there. You know, the people in the first floor who, you know, you get food, you get magazines, newspapers. And in my mind, all I could think of was, I know exactly what's going on in that building as far as where things were. And our studio, CNN studio, was on the ground floor, but our offices were on the 18th floor. And having been to the, the top for that restaurant and I didn't even stay. I didn't like the feeling When I went there one time, some people at work were going up for drinks and I. It freaked me out because you're like 102 stories above and you're, you're watching this happen, you can't believe it's happening. Or just certain things where you go, wait, that's happening here. And you know, just like Charlie Kirk yesterday, like, that's happening here. And then another shooting outside of Denver. But yeah, 9 11, still fresh. And those poor people who, you know, you get on the train and you go there or you didn't go that day. And then I met two people, two different people as far as families. And they were going in, they forgot something and they went back home and then they could, they couldn't go back in because, you know, the planes had hit the towers. But just why, why those who did come in couldn't get out. And it's heartbreaking when you see the documentary where you can hear people jumping out of the World Trade center, you can hear them hit the ground because either that or you're going to stay in there and, you know, be burned alive. But 24 years ago. 24. All right, let me see. How about a couple of Adam in Indiana got a couple more phone calls in here. Hi, Adam.

[Caller]

611 90. I just thought that Buffalo really showed their hand the other night against Baltimore. It wasn't just that one fan, I believe on Derrick Henry's second touchdown run, there was a water bottle thrown onto the field. Like, what are they doing?

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I didn't see that. I wasn't aware of that. But, you know, we've encouraged this kind of behavior at certain fans, certain, certain stadiums. Like, oh, that's just Buffalo or, you know, the Raider. Oh, it's just the Raider fans being The Raider fans. Oh, those. That's Philadelphia, man. They love their. You can't pick and choose and go. Well, that's just how they are, you know, it's security for these players, especially the road team. You have to have security for them. Yeah.

[Paulie]

Paulie, I was reading about the Bills fan. He's indefinitely banned from not just Bills games, from all NFL stadiums. Indefinitely. And I was wondering if a guy like him wants to, you know, not appeal it, but like, try to get back in someday. Maybe he could cut a PSA and say, look what happened for one dumb day. Now I can't hang with my friends anymore. I can't go to games. I can't support my team. There's a real fallout to it because I was such a moron. It'd be kind of a good thing to give to the fans.

[Dan Patrick]

I think I would have him do community service as well. Like a couple of hundred hours, do some community service. Give back. Maybe community service in Baltimore. Maybe go there and do some community service. Yes.

[Todd]

Todd, while he's doing the community service, can people just randomly smack him in.

[Dan Patrick]

The back of the head?

[Todd]

Not hard, but just to remind him what he did.

[Dan Patrick]

Just. Just have an afternoon where you can come out and smack the fan in the back of the head.

[Todd]

I would have it. I would. I would go hang out.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, you would?

[Todd]

I would. I would. On my. My ig. I would do that.

[Dan Patrick]

Lucas in Texas. Hi, Lucas. What's on your mind?

[Caller]

Hey, Dan. Good morning.

[Dan Patrick]

Good morning.

[Caller]

You know, I always want to help the show as much as I can. And I don't want to accuse anyone, but I feel like we've lost our way just a little bit. And let me give it a little bit of context. We were watching the prep for the Monday night game. Obviously a lot of attention on Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson. And I noticed, and not really helpfully, with a comment by my wife that Ben Johnson is a good looking man. And so I feel like I need to ask the show, particularly Paulie, even though it requires playing hurt. I think we demand a new hot guy draft in the NFL. I need to know where the coaches and GMs and scouts and everything rank because those are some handsome men on the sideline on Monday night.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah, I don't think we could go into the front office here, but as far as on the sidelines, would it.

[Paulie]

Be players and coaches or just coaches?

[Dan Patrick]

I think coaches. Hot guy draft. Hot coach draft. Yes, Todd.

[Todd]

I would hit on Kevin o' Connell in the right. In the right setting. I think He's a very good looking guy.

[Dan Patrick]

What is the right setting?

[Todd]

The right setting would be just. I don't know if I had a little too much Mountain Dew in me. I'm just kind of. We're just hanging out and I'm in a silly Friday night, Saturday night mood at a bar or just hanging out. I think Kevin o' Connell's attractive and I'm confident enough in my masculinity to.

[Dan Patrick]

Say that I think the NFC north might be cornering the market.

[Paulie]

Oh, wow.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

That was their goal when they did the hearings.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes, yes. Like, is he good? Matt LaFleur, is he good looking? Yeah. Do you want to know if he can coach? No, no. We just need him to be good looking. Yes. Paul.

[Paulie]

Like Mike McDaniel's it hot.

[Dan Patrick]

He's nerd.

[Paulie]

A different type.

[Seaton]

Kind of an indie rock.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes, yes.

[Seaton]

He's got a real indie rock quality.

[Paulie]

Snow Patrol.

[Dan Patrick]

Lead singer.

[Seaton]

Yeah, yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

No Patrol.

[Seaton]

Mars of Alta.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, exactly. Oh. I was one of those bands that they'd always get great reviews. And I go out and buy the CD and I go, what the hell are they listening to? Oh, my.

[Seaton]

Dude. I. I went to a Mars Volta concert once and it was. It felt like it was about three and a half hours long. And I think they played five songs. It was crazy.

[Dan Patrick]

You get these reviews and I would read the reviews and then based off that Rolling Stone or Spin magazine, I go out and buy albums or CDs and you bring them home. And then you'd be like, what am I? This. No, this isn't for me. Yeah.

[Paulie]

Paulie, Back in the day, Rolling Stone magazine used to have a section in the back where they. The album charts and so forth. And they came up with this thing in the 80s. I'm dating myself. But the top college albums.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

Radio station that was influential because it was R.E.M. and bands like that and people would buy them to be cutting edge.

[Dan Patrick]

Jack in Florida. Hi, Jack. What's on your mind today?

[Caller]

What's going on? DP question for you guys. You're talking about restaurants and athletes owned and everything like that. You have a more memorable owned restaurant that you've ever been to or most memorable, like Meat Friday. And last question. Who's the best cook out of all the Dan, It's.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, well, not Todd. I would probably say Paulie. I think Paulie loves. Loves his food.

[Paulie]

I think Seat and I are probably a tie. Seat knows what he's doing a little bit. I know what I'm doing a little bit seafood and Pasta. I'm okay.

[Dan Patrick]

I don't know of an athlete restaurant. I'm trying to think.

[Paulie]

I went to Don Shula Steakhouse one time, and that lived up to the billing.

[Dan Patrick]

John Elway's got a steakhouse. Dan Marino, I think, had a steakhouse. I wouldn't open up a restaurant if I was an athlete or a bar. I just wouldn't. It just feels like headaches. Yes. Marvin.

[Todd]

Michael Jordan Steakhouse.

[Dan Patrick]

That didn't last long in Grand Central.

[Todd]

There's one in Mohegan in Connecticut still.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, it's open. Okay.

[Todd]

LeBron doesn't have one.

[Dan Patrick]

You're right. LeBron doesn't have his own restaurant. Yes, Paul.

[Paulie]

I once went to Billy Sims barbecue, and that guy knows how to run the football and make barbecue.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay.

[Paulie]

Not necessarily in that order.

[Dan Patrick]

Okay. I went to Ditka's, went to Mike Ditkas. That was. There was always something going on there. Always. And you want to. You want to talk about a vibe, go in there. And, you know, Mike would be in there, have his wife in there, and there was always drama. There was something going on.

[Paulie]

You could order cholesterol on a menu. It was just about guys.

[Dan Patrick]

It was on tap.

[Paulie]

Cigars.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. I mean, it was manly.

[Caller]

Yeah.

[Dan Patrick]

And I remember I was in the bathroom, and it had. There was a Ditka sign there. And I said to Mike, I said, I'd love to have that. He goes, take it. So I took it off the wall, and we have it in the hallway going down to the big German's office. And I. I got that. And I was like, all right. You know, got my Ditka. It was a mirror, and he had his own cigars. But Ditka was. That was. That. That was testosterone on tap. When Mike was. Mike was running the show. Late 80s Ditka, man. Oh, isn't it the anniversary? It was. What is it, 40 years, Paul, with the. The 85 bears?

[Paulie]

Yeah, of course it is.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

It's always an anim.

[Dan Patrick]

How are you going to celebrate?

[Seaton]

I was happy to see them getting.

[Dan Patrick]

Honored the other day that, you know, they. They've been forgotten, snubbed for years.

[Paulie]

Honored during Monday Night Football. Those guys get together more than we do.

[Dan Patrick]

They. But they're second to the Dolphins in victory laps. It feels like I. I actually disagree.

[Paulie]

The 17.0thing only raises its head when a team is, you know, 12 and 0 or 13. Oh, with the Dolphins, the. The Bears, there's a. There's an anniversary or some type of celebration every couple months. It seems like they've got two documentaries.

[Dan Patrick]

Two.

[Paulie]

ESPN did one and Fox did one.

[Dan Patrick]

Well, they did have a lot of characters, by the way, the passing of Davey Johnson, former Mets manager. He managed a few teams, but he did something really remarkable. There was a celebrity golf tournament and it was in Dayton, Ohio. And I had to ask anybody if they wanted to go to the Children's hospital. I would appreciate that. Well, this isn't an indictment on everybody else because they had other things to do. The one person who went to the Children's hospital was Davey Johnson. And he sat there with these kids. I don't even know if they knew who he was. But he sat there. He was there for two hours. And I, every time I think of him, I think, you know, that moment. But I also think when he hit 43 home runs for the Atlanta Braves, when I think Hank hit 44 and what was it? Daryl Evans at 42. That was the launching pad for the Atlanta Braves. But Davey Johnson. Rest in peace. We'll take a break. Back after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

[Seaton]

Whose table would you sit at for dinner? This is off of their restaurant opening. Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelsey. Right now, Patrick Mahomes has the early lead.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, okay. I feel like that's gonna swing though. You think so? Yeah. Now, is this a bias against Taylor Swift? It could be. Okay. It very well could be. Yeah. But I would, I would think Taylor's probably just very quiet at dinner. Travis will be a big personality there. And I would try not to bring up too much music with Taylor Swift. I mean, I would bring up maybe other artists who have influenced her. Her first concert, you know, I'd chat her up a little bit. By the way, I got myself in a predicament yesterday. I went and got the shingles vaccine. And if, I think if you're over 50, you're supposed to get the shot. Bill Hader, the great comedian Bill Hader said he texted me I don't know, a month ago. Hey, shingles is real. Get the vaccine. That's all he said.

[Paulie]

Is he a spokesman?

[Dan Patrick]

Just you idea. And I. And so I guess he had shingles. I don't know. But from what I'm told, you don't want shingles. And I go in and I go, okay, local, you know, cvs. I go, okay, can I get the shingles? Yeah, you can. And then, then all of a sudden she goes, did you get the COVID shot? I go, no. She goes, do you want that? I go, yeah. Did you get the flu shot? I go, no, would you want that? I said, you can do all three in the same arm. She goes, yeah. And you know, she's a cute woman.

[Paulie]

Story over.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. So I'm like, yeah. And she goes, a little pinch. I said, that didn't hurt. And so I got all three of them. I wasn't going to make it to work today. Wow. I came in and I thought I had the flu and, you know, Mr. Tough Guy. And now I think it's like one to three days where you have these symptoms, but. Oh, yeah, yeah, I'll take the flu shot. I'll take the COVID shot. Yeah. Shingles, sure.

[Paulie]

Yeah, Paulie, just like going to a bar. Three shots in 20 minutes will take you down. Shingles, by the way, Dan, a viral infection that causes a painful rash can occur anywhere in your body. It looks like a strip of blisters that wraps around the left side or right side of your torso.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah.

[Paulie]

And can be chronic. It's almost like a chickenpox, but worse.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. I don't know if it truly goes away, but I went in, I got it, I was, I manned up. Yes.

[Todd]

Todd, to what extent was explained to you, you know, that what could happen to you or how many days or maybe it's not a great idea to have all of them other than convenience wise to get it over with.

[Dan Patrick]

She didn't say. She said, you know, people do it. And I thought, all right, well then I'll just get it in my left arm because, you know, I don't want to affect my. My shooting or get in and left. And so I don't know, hopefully I feel better tomorrow than I did this morning because I came in and I was like, I'm not in good shape here. Yes, Paul, you know, when you get.

[Paulie]

An IV or a shot or blood test, they always, right beforehand they go.

[Dan Patrick]

Little pinch, little pinch. I don't want them to tell me exactly. Just get it. Just do. And I don't even look at the person giving me the shot. And, you know, they can tell when you're like, I'm looking completely opposite of her. And, you know, I probably look pretty soft, though. Yes, Todd, I know you had them.

[Todd]

On one arm, but looking back, is it better to have, like, a little stinging sensation in both arms or one arm feels fully functional and the other one is just shot for a number of days.

[Dan Patrick]

What do you think?

[Todd]

I would have mixed it up a little bit. I think I would have gone two and one, not three and.

[Dan Patrick]

Oh, yeah, no, you would have gone in and pulled down your pants and then she would have said, no, no, no, no. We put it in that way. It goes.

[Todd]

I didn't read that.

[Dan Patrick]

Didn't get the leaflets and I didn't get the leaflet.

[Todd]

Guys, send me the pamphlet next time.

[Dan Patrick]

Yes, yes. Marvin, is today your flu game? This is. You're right. This might be my Jordan flu game.

[Todd]

So who's going to be Scotty Pippen, the guy you lean on after you just have a great performance?

[Dan Patrick]

I'm going to lean on Paul because Paul has the eye issue, you know.

[Paulie]

But Pippen didn't have anything wrong with him that we knew of.

[Dan Patrick]

But maybe a fragile psyche.

[Paulie]

Yes, Fragile eye. Fragile psyche.

[Dan Patrick]

Yeah. You know, maybe I'll lean on Mario, our director. He's the eyes and ears of this show. But, yeah. Thank you. This, it feels like a flu performance. And I don't know if this helps with the sports Emmys because I. I mean, visually you're probably saying you look okay, but. Yeah, about an hour and a half ago. Not good.

[Paulie]

Yeah, Paul, Bob Costas was smart when he got that pink guy for the Olympics right on air with it. I mean, that's Gary. They should have given him the award that night.

[Dan Patrick]

And Bob got pink eye. I was supposed to fill in for him. I got sick. I got something in. In Russia. I don't know what it was. I still don't know what it was. So I'm not able to fill in for Bob. I get my moment. I get my Wally Pip moment. And then I couldn't. And then Bob rises from the ashes and there's pink eye. Yes, Todd, pink eyes.

[Todd]

Not contagious or anything. So I'm sure everyone around them really appreciated him being such a trooper.

[Dan Patrick]

One hour in the books. It's a meat. Thursday has it better than we do. Nobody.

[Paulie]

This is Justin Richmond, host of Broken Record.

Lexus is a company that believes in the importance of setting a standard, which I can appreciate as someone who holds themselves to lofty, if not ridiculous standards, especially with the car I drive. The standard Lexus has set for themselves is to experience amazing. Lexus measures success by the feeling and emotions evoked in a driver, like exhilaration and joy. Amazing can only be achieved by knowing people on a deeper level. The standard of amazing results in a feeling in drivers that their car was built in anticipation of them. Machines that make you feel more human. Because a car that doesn't make you feel something is a car that stops short of amazing experience. Amazing at your Lexus dealer introducing the U rules of value from Burger King And U rule number one. You choose food you actually want. There's seven tasty options. So try the $5 Duo or $7 Trio.
