This is Devin, and we're best friends and journalists with a new podcast called no Such Thing, where we get to the bottom of questions like that. Why are you screaming? I can't expect what to do now? If the rule was the same, go off on me. I deserve it, you know? Lock him up. Listen to no Such thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. No such thing. In 1920, a magazine article announced something incredible. Two young girls had photographed real fairies. But even more incredible, that article was written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the man who invented Sherlock Holmes. How did he fall for that? Hoax is a new podcast from me, Dana Schwartz, the host of Noble Blood, and me, Lizzy Logan. Every episode, we'll explore one of the most audacious and ambitious tricks in history and try to answer the question why we believe what we believe. Listen to Hoax on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, I'm John Lithgow. We choose to go to the moon. I want to tell you about my new fiction podcast, One Small Step for Man, about Buzz Aldrin, one of the true pioneers of space. You're a great pilot, Buzz. That's the story you think you know. This is the story you don't. Buds starring me, John lythgoe, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Noah and I'm 13, and I started this podcast because, honestly, adults don't ask the right questions. Now, you know, with Noah DeBorosso is a show about influence. Who's got it, how they use it, and what it means. For the rest of you, it's not the news. It's what the news should be if someone Gen Z or Gen Alpha made it. Politics is wild, and I'm definitely not here to tame it, but I'm here to make sense of it. Listen to now youw Know with Noah de arrasto on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcast. You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. We are back and ready to go. Fully assembled, your Fab 5, Fritzi, the minister of humor, Seton Marv, Paulie, yours truly and of course the back room guys. Come on in. Stay a while. A lot of topics to dive into after vacation. Say good morning if you're watching on Peacock. Thank you for downloading the app. And we say good morning to our radio affiliates around the country.

Backed by free road hazard protection, convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire rack.com the way tire buying should be Stat of the Day is always brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program. 877-3DP show as we always do every Monday, best and worst of the weekend, what you saw that you liked and didn't like. We'll come up with a poll question. Seaton will do the honors. But first, let me run down, in no particular order, Scotty Scheffler wins the BMW. Fifth win of the season. And it's his sport now when you think about it, you know, Tiger separated himself eventually. You know, Phil was kind of there, Ernie Else was there. You had other guys who were kind of on the periphery who would, you know, sometime they would step up in a week and challenge him, maybe beat him. But this is Scotty Scheffler's and you're watching it and it's very methodical. It is, you know, drip, drip, drip water torture as opposed to a guillotine. Tiger was a guillotine. He would just cut your head off. Scotty's like, yep, there he is again. And there he is again. And there he is again. And then he did this on the next to last hole yesterday. And this is how it sounded. Do we have Scotty Scheffler, Marvin, or is that our play of the day? That is our play of the day. Oh, okay. So we're gonna save that. Okay, fair enough. So Scotty Scheffler wins the BMW. I think the Happy Gilmore cameo at the end of Happy Gilmore 2. You have over a hundred million people who have streamed that movie. And I think this has helped, too, that Scotty is, I don't know if he's embraceable, but he's likable, he's enjoyable. And you're watching and you're going, okay, he's making fun of himself. And I think that really helped. And he, you know, had a four shot deficit and he caught Robert McIntyre and then, of course, had some really great performances. Shots that you want. I, you know, I hate when somebody backs into a title. And Scotty Sheffielder did not back into a title. He went out, grabbed it, and won it. His fifth PGA Tour title of the season and the first player to win five straight times on the PGA Tour in consecutive years since Tiger woods back in 06 and 07. And I know it sounds blasphemous to say, you know, put Scotty Scheffler and Tiger woods in the same, you know, conversation. I'm not talking about the style, the presentation. I'm talking about the end result. And that's where Scotty deserves to be put in that category. Now, granted, it's a smaller sample size, but if you're looking at Tiger at his Tigerish peak, Scotty is, you know, at least close. He's at least in the conversation with that. And once again, he's never. He still looks like Carl Spackler from, what is it, the Caddyshack. Yeah. Whenever I see him, you know, he's got the beard there. It just looks like Bill Murray's character and Caddyshack. But he, he did it in a methodical way once again and very impressive going into the Tour Championship. Also, preseason football. I think we got to declare moratorium on going crazy with our referendums on preseason football because I do have a dilemma here. And I talk about this in certain sports or athletes or teams where it's clickbait. And I have told you this many, many times. I don't subscribe to it. I don't want to do may, you know, not be beneficial for this show or this, my career. But I have to present something when I feel like it needs to be presented. And I'm watching Shador Sanders play and I realize I have to pick a side. It almost feels like you, you either say, hey, really, he looked great, or, okay, you can't even cover it and yet be in the middle, you know, kind of neutral with it, which is what I'm trying to be. I thought he played really well. And then all, all of a sudden I see the coverage for Dylan Gabriel and, you know, had a fumble and then had interception the interception wasn't his fault. And Jackson Dart with the Giants played well, but nobody's going to talk about that. So you're trying to find a middle ground with this, with what you say in the preseason, and it kind of comes with, you know, a cautionary tale. You know, we'll play these back in January, you know, when the season's over for a lot of these rookies. Then we'll probably come back and go. That was said, you know, it's like freezing cold takes. We'll bring him back. And, you know, this person said this. I think Shador Sanders will start a game for the Browns this season. Said that when they drafted him. But I don't have an agenda here. And anybody who, you know, believes in and should or Sanders shouldn't have been surprised at how he played. That was the surprising part of it. If you think he can play, then why were you surprised? I expect him to be good. He played well in college. I voted for him third on my Heisman ballot. But, you know, this outpour of media, I mean, it was gushing, it was dripping. It was like, easy here. And, you know, he's limited now due to an injury. I don't think he's going to be their starting quarterback. I think it's Joe Flacco, but I do think he'll get a chance. But I think we need to be fair to Dylan Gabriel as well in this situation. And if you want to throw in Kenny Pickett, you know, it's kind of a hodgepodge of quarterbacks there. But Shador Sanders played well. That's one game in the preseason. It's like summer league basketball, where all of a sudden I'll come in and go, oh, my gosh, this guy put up 40 for the Pistons. He doesn't even make the roster. I think Shador will play. But you do have to pick a side almost, because if I say something negative, well, I'm a hater. And then if I praise Shador Sanders, then I'm, you know, on the bandwagon with Dion and his son. I expect him to play well, and he did play well, and you can celebrate that. But I don't know what that means. I did want to see composure. We talked to Drew Brees before vacation, and, you know, he wants to see those guys who have a good 30 starts now. That's where you really get a sense of how good a quarterback is or is going to be. Jaden Daniels and Bo nicks had over 50 starts in their careers playing at two different places. Now you get a good sample size. That's why we've had a lot of these quarterbacks recently, high draft picks who maybe had one really good season in college. That's not enough for me. And I think that that's where we need to have buyer beware with all of this. Shador Sanders played well, but I hate picking a side because I don't really have a side on it. I want to be neutral with him. You have football coming up tonight. You have the commanders and the Bengals. This is the holdout game. So commanders and the Bengals. The Bengals are minus five, three and a half, in case you care. But this is the Trey Hendrickson, Terry McLaurin game. Neither will be there. And it. This is where I, you know, I said this about Micah Parsons. If I hear that they're listening to offers in Dallas or somebody is making an offer, now you have my attention. I truly believe that this will come down to the last week before we get to the regular season and Jerry will own all the headlines and Micah Parsons will be brought in and he'll proudly say he's the highest paid non quarterback in the game and then we'll move on. But as far as the Bengals go, they're listening, you know, reportedly listening to trade offers. Now you have my attention. And if you knew that you weren't going to sign him and you knew that he was going to hold firm in what he wanted, then why didn't you think about this prior to the draft? Why didn't you trade him? That's when you could get more for him. But here you are, and you're probably going to waste another Joe Burrow season. You sign up your best receivers and you have a defense that prevented you from making the postseason. So this is where you look at if I'm a fan and I go, you know, management failed us. Either trade him back in March prior to the draft or sign him up. Let's go. You know, you only have so many opportunities here and you got a franchise quarterback, a great quarterback and great wide receivers. You're going to have to score a lot of points. Even if you have Trey Hendrickson and then you have Terry McLaurin. You had this wonderful season last year, surprised everybody. He wants to be paid. He wants to be paid accordingly to, you know, other receivers in the game. He doesn't do anything dynamic. But he is there and he had a wonderful season and hopefully he gets the money he deserves. I hope Trey Hendrickson gets the money. I think it's really easy to go. Let Me, blame the player. If I look at production, Trey Hendrickson has been better than T.J. watt the last two years. Terry McLaurin, his numbers. I can't deny the numbers. But the NFL does not pay you on what you did. They pay you on what they think you'll do. And that's when 30 years of age in Cincinnati is different than 30 years of age in Pittsburgh, because TJ want got paid. All right. Yes. Paulie, how about halftime tonight? To spice up the game, Trey Henderson negotiates with the Bengals live on air, 12 minutes, halftime. You got to get the contract done. You got 12 minutes. McLaurin, same thing. That's good TV. Sure. I'm good with that. Bengals probably wouldn't be in favor of that. I'd love to know what those negotiations sound like, feel like, and I mean, while we're at it. And then you get. But Jerry. Jerry has to only have the player in there. He doesn't want to have the agent. So Jerry Jones couldn't do that. But wouldn't you love to see how that goes down, back and forth? This is where. What happens in the. In these situations, and it happened to me that management can tell your agent whatever they want to tell them. Now, they wouldn't tell you necessarily, but they will say, hey, as you know, the great Mark Shapiro of ESPN said to my agent, you're over the hill. He's over the hill, and he'll never get another job. Well, he says that to my agent, and I'm like, God, when he'd say that to me, yes, he would. But, you know, it's per. You know, it's business. But for Trey hendrickson and Terry McLaurin, it's personal. This is their salary. This is their future. This is their life. For Mike Brown, and, I mean, he's like, this is just another contract for him, another holdout, another situation that is so Bengal Esh. And then you got the commanders as well with Terry McLaurin. So, you know, proceed with caution in the preseason. Just going to reiterate that here. Satan, what's the poll question today? Well, we could start there in the NFL if you want. And actually, I've been looking at a bunch of different articles about the best destinations for Trey Hendrickson. I can't tell if some of them are actually good destinations or. Or if some of them are just wishful thinking, too. Right. So, like, the alliance are top of that list. I think that would be great. I. I do think they. They might have the room. I'm not a salary capologist but I think they might have room for something like that. And this is a team that. I don't think they had a sack against the Commanders in the playoffs in their playoff game. Aiden Hutchinson, of course, was out, but Detroit is one. What are the other ones? I got a long list here. Buccaneers on that list. That could be fun. Okay. Could be fun. I think he lives in Florida. Commanders are. Seem to be on every list right now as a destination for people. People. All right, the Chicago Bears. If you're Trey Hendrickson, are you leaving the Bengals to go to the Bears? I think he's leaving to go wherever they'll pay him. I. I don't think he's loyal to Cincinnati. Just go, here's three years for $30 million a year. $35 million a year. How's that? Yeah, all done. Three for 100. All done. 60 million guaranteed or something. Done. Good, good. Let's go. But I don't think he goes, man, I really want to stay in Cincinnati. Yeah. Paulie. I had the current list of salary cap space in the NFL. The Lions are number two. They have 47 million currently in open cap space. All right, good point. Any other places? Seaton. Now, here's. That was one list that I saw. This next four teams are a separate list that I saw. The Carolina Panthers. Okay. Would you rather hold out or play for the Panthers? This is the holdout or playlist. No, no, because I'd rather. I just want to get paid. If I'm Trey Hendrickson, I don't care. So I'm, I'm, you know, even Carol. All right. Caroline is nice. You know, maybe he looks, you know, good in those uniforms. You think he just wants to get paid? Yes. Do you? Yes. Yeah. At this stage of the game? Yes. Yes. I've been to a Super Bowl. How about the Cleveland Browns team up with Miles Garrett? You could be unstoppable there. Bengals wouldn't trade in in the division, I don't think. Okay. How about the Colts? Okay. Yes. Paul? I went back and looked to see if Trey Hendrickson ever made huge money. He's never gotten top end, defensive end salary. He made 19 million a couple years ago, 18 million in 2023. Quite a bit less than his contemporaries. He's at $68 million in his career, but this is it. This is the last deal. And this upcoming year, he will be making 16 million, which is less than half of Garrett and Watt. All right, let's take a break. We'll settle on a poll question. We did have the Michigan verdict. After two years, they finally NCAA showing its teeth, of course. But we'll talk about that coming up. And also there's and it's in the early stages that the Big Ten is offering up a proposal for playoff expansion that could be 24 to 28 teams. Early stages, but I mean, we're headed in this direction. We just are. But we'll talk about that as well. Take a break. Just getting started. Your phone calls as well. Best and worst of the weekend operator Tyler sitting by 877-3DP show back after this.

The pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone, to land this plane. Think you could do it?

And then as we try the whole thing out for real. Wait, what? Oh, that's the Runway. I'm looking at this thing. See? Listen to no Such thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 1920, a magazine article announced something incredible. Two young girls had photographed real fairies but even more extraordinary than the magazine articles claim was the identity of the man who wrote the article. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The man who wrote Sherlock Holmes. Yes. The man who invented literature's most brilliant detective was fooled by two girls into thinking fairies were real. How did they do it? And why does it seem like so many smart people keep falling for outlandish tricks? These are the questions we explore in Hoax, a new podcast from me, Dana Schwartz, the host of Noble Blood, and me, Lizzy Logan. Every episode, we'll explore one of the most audacious and ambitious tricks in history, from the fake Shakespeare's to balloon boys, and try to answer the question of why we believe what we believe. Listen to Hoax on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. We'll get to your phone calls. Coming up on this Monday, best and worst of the weekend. I'm gonna violate the rule that I just presented to you 15 minutes ago. Stop me if you've heard this one before. The Patriots have a scrappy, shifty, bring your lunch pail to work slot receiver. First to show up, last to leave. His name is Fton Chisholm. He's out of Eastern Washington. That's where Cooper cup was from. 12 catches, 121 yards, two touchdowns, and all of a sudden, is he. Julian Edelman 2.0. Wes Welker Reborn. Maybe a touch of Danny Amendola. Yes. Get ready. And I know August stats don't usually convert to success in the fall in the NFL, but remember the name Afton Chisholm. Drake May needs that security blanket. He needs that Amendola, West Welker, Julian Edelman. And maybe he's found it. Yes. Yeah. When you watch him play, you're like, okay, here we go. Seen this playbook before. I've seen this one by the Patriots. It's exactly the carbon copy of several other past Patriots players. Yes. Paul Fton Chisholm III. 5:10, 198. Right on Q from a directional school. Wow, superstar. Yeah, Hopefully I'm on board. Josh Dos doesn't get him knocked out before the start of the season, and then we'll be okay. Good grief. See, that's a story to cover, too. Josh Dobbs played terrible for the Patriots. And, you know, you throw those certain balls and you go, he's going to get somebody killed out there. Yes. Yeah. This is the case where actual performance in the preseason does matter because Josh Dobbs is actively making the team worse by getting players knocked out due to injury. He's actually, we he's actually thinning the herd for the Patriots coaching staff. But does he have a social media following, though? How many likes does he have? Seaton? Yes, Paulie. If we're admitting man crushes and Patriots Travion Henderson, the rookie running back from Ohio State, calling him the steal. The draft in August, there were. There were some coaches that came out and said, wow. Like, they. Opposing coaches said wow that they were shocked at how good he was in person. All right, stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program. The NCAA hammered Michigan financially. This was like a velvet hammer. Yeah, it's a hammer, but it's a velvet hammer. We're gonna kind of hit you hard. We're gonna give the appearance that maybe we hit you hard, but no titles were stripped, no records removed, no wins vacated. It's, hey, if you want to win a title, you can cheat and. But it's gonna cost you 30, $35 million. Are you willing to do it? How many schools in America would go, yeah, sure, Jim Harbaugh show cause penalty that it doesn't go into effect for three more years, but it's for a decade. I mean, he's not going back to college, but it's. It's for a decade that he can't coach in college. You know, this is. It was disappointing because it's lack of institutional control. That used to be a big phrase with the ncaa. And there's no postseason ban. Let's just be honest here. New president there with the ncaa, he needs Michigan. We love having Michigan. You know, Michigan always brings a great product, but you bring an asterisk. Whether you care about that or not, it's there. It's. It will be there. When people say, oh, they want a title. Yeah, well, was that the year they cheated? And they had all of this evidence, but, you know, the lack of institutional control and no postseason ban really surprised me there. Yes, Paulie. So Jim Harbaugh's show cause order, which prevents him from coaching or doing anything with a college football program for 10 years. It's show cause two, Dan. Show cause one is in already a year in, and that goes for three more years. So his 10 year show cause order starts in 2028 and goes to 2038. Show caused me the money. Show cost me the money. Yes, Todd. And they sprinkle in coach Moore. He can't coach the first two games this year and the first game of next season. And that's supposed to be something we're supposed to get Excited about. In terms of. And then, you know, I guess the fact that they kind of held up the investigation hurt them like Tom Brady. That if you're forthcoming, maybe they're a little more lenient. But if you're going to delay and delay and delay, I think they're appealing this. This fine for them. But I wonder, you know, if. Did they make it better by delaying and deleting messages and trying to avoid, you know, this information getting out? What's that? You know, hey, that was worth it because we didn't want some of this stuff to get out. Yes, Todd, shouldn't their appeal just be. I just wanted to get everybody together, say thank you very much. We are accepting the punishment. This is wonderful. We'll make up that $30 million fair. And thanks for keeping. We can keep the championship. I would do a zoom call and I would just bring the national title trophy there and then just have it there. And to say, just want to say thank you. A very thorough investigation and I'd have somebody polishing the trophy. While we're on the zoom call, here is Jim Harbaugh with a detailed answer about the penalty levied against Michigan. Do you have any comment on the latest sanctions from ncaa? Like I said to you last year, not engaging. You should, Jim, you should like a little bit. You should be fair to what happened. Be honest about what happened. You know, at least the journalist in me is hoping that maybe one time Jim would just, you know, all right, I'm gonna talk about this and then that's it. Now, I don't blame him. I wouldn't say a damn word. Be like, yeah, it's a long time ago. Who has it better than we do? Nobody. Wait, where. Come on. Are we out of practice? Oh, I. For a week. I thought you're set up to a non. Nobody. Because a lot of people have it better than that same nobody has it better than Jim Harbaugh. He's good. All right. Yeah, see, Michigan certainly doesn't these days. What is he supposed to say? I mean, he's generally a fairly liked fella. She's supposed to get up there and be like, ah, yeah, we did a bunch of stuff weren't supposed to do, but sucks for Michigan, but I'm here now, so looking forward to the season and Justin Herbert's gonna have a big year and yeah, hey, sorry about that, but sure was fun while it lasted. All right, here's my question. What if Jim Harbaugh was still the head coach at Michigan? If he did something so egregious or was part of something so egregious and they gave him a 10 year ban from coaching college football. Would they have taken him off the sidelines, like, let that sink in? Jim can't come back to college football. It's sort of the NCAA's wing saying, See what we did, man? He can't come back. He's not coming back. He wanted to go into the NFL to win a Super bowl after winning a championship at Michigan. But if he was still there, would they give him a 10 year ban? And the answer is no. Yes. Marvin, I think you're wrong. They would have banned him for 10 years. You can't coach against Central Michigan for the next 10 years starting this year. All right, you can coach, but you can't have somebody steal your signs, Jim. Okay, all right, all right. But that was a two year. And they. They revealed this on a Friday, didn't they? Was that one of these news dumps, as we like to say? You want something to kind of go away, just throw it out there on a Friday. Yeah, Paulie. And your guy, Connor Stallions, he got an eight year show. Cause they have a lot of details about his report. Like he threw his phone into a pond. He threw the. Literally, it's. I mean, I dropped it. I didn't throw it. I mean, I dropped it into. It's an accident, actually. It was a good throw. Rolled right, throw left. He threw all the film and the computer discs into a pond. This is in the NCAA's report that you could find online. It's in detail. It's wild. They kind of just said, I mean, it's all there. But now, does the Fab Five, can they get their banner back? NCAA seems pretty lenient on Michigan. If I'm Fab Five. Get a hold of Chris Weber, see if they can get their banner reinstated up there. The impermissible benefit, you know, can Jim. Jim Tressell get his job back at Ohio State? Does USC get their national trophy back? Yeah, Paulie. Yeah. USC football was not accused of cheating on or off the field in any way in that NCAA where they stripped him of that 2004 title. It was impermissible benefits for Reggie Bush and that cost them. Oh, boy. All right, all right. So it's over. Yes. Marvin, Isn't stripping wins the stupidest thing ever? Because we can't unsee what we saw. Like, I can't unsee what Reggie Bush did at USC and what USC did winning those national championships. You know, it's like Louisville when they won the national Title with Rick Patino. I mean, you see it and you know, everybody knew what they were watching was real. Like with Michigan, they were cheating with getting evidence, you know, film from other teams that they were going to play Reggie Bush, he didn't, he didn't cheat us. He was incredible. Yeah. See, I'm having a hard time understanding the Michigan punishment because we're sort of like, ah, they got off easy. And yet it was still one of the harshest, most extreme penalties of all time. Financial, right? You want to hurt a team, you want to hurt a coach, you want to hurt a fan base. No postseason ban, right? That's where you'll get their attention. $30 million, I don't think that. Who cares? Is it more because it's about individual accountability? Like the individual sanctions are really, really terrible. But the school sanction is like, all right, well, it's money and stuff, but we seem to just have this idea of like, ah, it's just money. 30 million, no big deal. They throw that away in paper clips. Yeah, I, I mean the financial part of it to me sounds, you know, like, oh, wow, that, that's heavy. But I don't think it is. If you said that was the penalty for Alabama, Ohio State, you know, us just throw out any of these big time program, Penn State, they'll be like, all right, all right, we're good. But if you take away a postseason ban, a couple of years. Postseason ban, that's when you get their attention. Yeah, Paulie. The only penalty that has an effect on future recruiting for Michigan, a 25% reduction in football official visits for the 25, 26 season just this year. Not even the next three years of the probation. Air quotes. Also, the Big Ten in the news saw this with Pete Thamel of the mothership. Big Ten has considered the idea of expanding the postseason from 24 to 28 or 24 or 28 teams, I should say. And according to sources, very early stages, the proposal eliminates conference title games, which is good. They should do away with that. And a large number of automatic bids will happen for the four power leagues. Let's say you do the 2018 model. Big 10 in the SEC. Each gets seven automatic bids. So there's, there's half of the field is the Big Ten in the SEC. ACC and Big Ten would get five each. So now 24 of your 28 teams will come from those four conferences. Then you would have two automatic bids for non power, four conferences and two at large teams. Notre Dame. The 2018 format would put 20 playoff games on campus, which is what we've been saying for a long time. That would. Then let's see. College football playoff committee would seed the field and pick the at large teams as well. We have 12 team playoff this year. There's discussion of 16 teams. Maybe next year. But remember when I, I said give me just a 14 playoff and I would be fine. We, we blew through that stop sign. Now it's 12, now it's 16. Why don't we go to 28? They're going to be rivaling March Madness here soon. Yes. Marvin, don't you worry. Team 29 is going to be furious when they don't make the tournament. Yeah. No. Then we're going to have a play in tournament. Yes. Paulie, this is one of those where you don't want to be hyperbolic, but that would crush the importance of the regular season. A big game versus A&M versus Texas or whatever may be would be a really cool exhibition game. It'd be for bragging rights during the regular season, but it would impact nothing on the playoffs. Don't we have the game in Dublin coming up next week? Is it K State, Iowa State? Yeah, I think that's. Now. Is that week zero or. Because it's before week zero, but I think the. Is it the 23rd? Is the first game? Yeah. Saturday, August 23rd, noon Eastern. Iowa State, Kansas State. Then you have some more games that day. You got like Idaho State, unlv, Fresno State, Kansas and a few more. Okay. All right. Paul in Iowa. Paul, best and worst of the weekend. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. Well, you kind of stole my best. Just there it is farmaged in week. AP Top 25 matchup on Saturday in Dublin. To start the year, Cyclone nation's already showing up asking where the Bush Light is. From what I've seen on social media, worst of the weekend, the great Iowa State fair is now in the books. Gone for 355 days. Try some great foods like the Nashville hot chicken, Mac and cheese, pizza. There's delicious stuff at the state fair. But when that ends, that means it's football time. I love it. I'm ready. By the way, those going to Dublin, you'll have a great time. Dublin knows how to entertain you. And just go down to the temple bar at a whole area and just walk around and celebrate. And then even going out to that stadium. Stadium is beautiful. Troy in North Dakota. Hi Troy. ADP511 I'm still working on it. In reference to you guys working on nicknames for Scotty since I live in the Midwest, I only got about 5 guys in my own county that look like Scotty. So I say just go with the old farmer. The old farmer. Now I every time I see him with that beard, it's Carl Spackler from Caddyshack. It's Bill Murray's character Buddha in San Francisco. Good morning Buddha. What up dp?

Listen to no Such thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Have you ever looked at a piece of abstract art or music or poetry and thought that's just a bunch of pretentious nonsense? Well, that's exactly what two bored Australian soldiers set out to prove during World War II when they pulled off what was either a bold literary hoax or a grand poetic experiment, publishing over a dozen intentionally bad but highly acclaimed works of expressionist poetry under the name Ern Malley. In an incident that caused a media firestorm and even a criminal trial, the Ern Malley episode made fools of believers and critics alike and still fascinates poetry lovers to this day, we break down the truth, the lies, and the poetry in between on Hoax, a new podcast hosted by me, Lizzy Logan, and me, Dana Schwartz. Every episode, Hoax explores an audacious fraud or ruse from history, from forged artworks to the original Fake news.

I mean, it's. I missed it on the correct side. I think that's most important. It was a chip that we practiced, and I knew how fast it was and basically was just trying to get it on the. On the green. And it's kind of a bullpen back there to where everything kind of funnels towards it. And I knew it was just gonna be really fast to do my best to get it, get it down there, give myself a good look for par. And when it came out. It came out how we wanted to and then it started breaking and started looking, looking better and better. And yeah, it was definitely nice to see that one going. And his reaction is so, yeah. Matter of fact, like, okay, he knew the importance of it and you're doing it right in front of the guy. You're trying to hold off Robert McIntyre. If that was Tiger, he would been fist pumping and he'd have been moving quickly, you know, to pick up the ball. And Stevie Williams would give him an awkward high five. It was just Scheffler going, all right, the fact that he practiced the chip, that's what I love. And I love that he said we. He's including his caddy that we. Or maybe he's talking about the ball, but Scotty Scheffler, it's his sport. Is he the most dominant athlete that we have right now? You start to think about. I saw where Shohei Ohtani's odds to win the MVP. This is as of this morning, according to DraftKings, minus 20,000. Like it's already his. Kyle Schwarber is next at plus 1300. Just to give you a reference point, Aaron Judge to win The MVP is minus 170. Cal Raleigh is right there at plus 110. So he does have a chance. And I thought Schwaber, given what he's done for a playoff team, he would be a lot closer than minus 20,000. Protani to win. Kyle Schwaber plus 1300. But Ohtani is, you know, you got Schwarber hitting home runs. Now. I'll go to the Cal Raleigh, Aaron Judge that, you know, that situation's a whole lot different, I think because if you start to look at this, Judge leads all of baseball batting average on base percentage, slugging percentage. Now he's had a little bit of dip in productivity. Here you have Cal Rawling hitting.252. I don't think we've had an MVP, a, a non pitching because I got to include Otani in that. When he wanted MVP, his batting average was I think.262. But I don't. I think Roger Maris in 1961 batted.267. That's the lowest batting average for an MVP. Cal Raleigh's at.253. He is on base percentage. He's 12th, second in slugging percentage, second in OPS. I think he would have to hit more home runs than Aaron Judge hit when he hit 62. That would be the only. That'd be the only chance. Oh, here's the number. Ohtani hit 257 with 46 homers. In 2021, his ERA was 3.18. But if you're looking at a, you know, a non pitcher, then that goes back to Roger Maris in 1961. I think he hit.367. Yes. Paul, if you assume that Otak Otani is going to win the NL MVP this year, he will have won four of the last five. The only year he didn't win it was 2022. He finished second to Aaron Judge. He was in the AL back then, but he's that close to winning five in a row, which no one's done. Bonds won three of four in Pittsburgh, then he won four straight in San Francisco. If Otani was still in the American League and put up these numbers, would he be the runaway MVP over Aaron Judge? It, I mean, I'm surprised. Now we look at Kyle Schwaber and we go, he does one thing, he hits home runs, he gets on base, you know, on base percentage. But I, I didn't think there would be that much separation. That's, that's really remarkable. But he's going to win another MVP Mark in Michigan. Hi Mark. What's on your mind today? Good morning, Dan. Dan S. How you guys doing? Good, bud. I have third time, long time. 510 heart. 215. In light of the punishment handed on by the NCAA to U of M, I have a well known stat of the day. In 2023, Michigan was 15 0. And for the last four years in a row, I've beaten Ohio State two times without Harbaugh or counter stallions on the sideline. Start of the day, start of the day. We love your start of the day, start of the day, start of the day. Brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. Mark, that's all well and good, but if that's the case, then why were they cheating? I don't think they were. I don't think they were doing anything that anybody else wasn't doing. Well, that doesn't mean they weren't cheating there. Did they cheat or you, you can't say that they're, they're doing something that nobody else did. And if, if you're going to admit they did cheat and everybody else cheats, that's one thing you're, you're saying they, they didn't cheat. Now you're saying they didn't do anything different than anybody else. So which one is it? Both. I guess all the above. All right, all right. Who has it better than we do. Nobody. Thank you, Mark. Yeah, I'm sure there are other people who did this, but you got caught. It's like the Astros. I'm sure there are other teams who do this, but you got caught. Yeah, Paulie, this is just like the Astros. You're kind of allowed to steal signs traditionally by looking and using your eyeballs and looking at it. Michigan's accused of so when you scout Ohio State at Michigan, this is it. This is the whole story. When you scout Ohio State, you get video from that game which does not show the sidelines. If you scout in person and film the sidelines of Ohio State, that's the improper benefit, that you can't do that. One hour in the books. Two more to go on this Monday. More phone calls. Best and worst of the weekend. We'll explore the Michigan topic and the potential for a 2018 playoff coming up next hour. Back after this with hour two on this Monday.
