I'm Mary Kay McBrayer, host of the podcast the Greatest True Crime Stories Ever Told. This season explores women from the 19th century to now, women who were murderers and scammers, but also women who were photojournalists, lawyers, writers and more. This podcast tells more than just the brutal, gory details of horrific acts. I delve into the good, the bad, the difficult, and all the nuance I can find because these are the stories that we need to know to understand the intersection of society, justice, and the fascinating workings of the human psyche. Join me every week as I tell some of the most enthralling true crime stories about women who are not just victims, but heroes or villains, or often somewhere in between.

We'll talk NFL Draft coming up. We have a couple of analysts who are going to join us. And once this happens, it feels like there's a snowball effect that happens. And it's every year. And it goes from week to week where the analyst, insiders, scouts, they will dissect one player. And that player right now is Shador Sanders. Now, Cam Ward's going to go through this. You're probably going to get Travis Hunter going through this. That's when they start to pick apart these players. And right now with Shador Sanders, he's on the clock. There's a report that he was called arrogant and brash after an interview at the NFL Combine. Now, once again, this is open to interpretation. What is arrogant to you could be cocky to me, confident to me, brash to you, same thing. And I think that there is a growing concern. Now, I can't speak for all of these players, but those who got Nils and Shador Sanders got nil Colorado, that they come in already entitled, that maybe they're spoiled a little bit, they've gotten their money already and maybe there's preferential treatment that they got and they expect that when they get to the pros, whether that's true or not, it's in the eye of the beholder. It's open to interpretation. But Shador Sanders hasn't thrown a football, hasn't played a game in a couple of months. But you're starting to get the Feeling, and I don't want to say smear campaign, but it does feel like you start to pile on. And sometimes, you know, the insiders are following insiders and they want to make sure that they don't miss on this. And it, you know, it's an echo chamber, it's a circle. Now you start to hear, hey, nobody's sold necessarily on Shador Sanders being a first round draft pick. I mean, like, where did that come from? That was quick. Is he a first round? We have an analyst on later on who will tell you why he thinks Shador Sanders might not go in the first round. If you're not going to take somebody because they're arrogant or brash instead of their abilities, then I would really have questions about you and how you would, you know, you're assessing talent at that position. Teams are always looking for their quarterback. And if he is that quarterback now, I said yesterday, I don't know what he's great at. I know he's tough. I know that, you know, the family tree, certainly going to be talented. He's not athletic, overly athletic. That was the thing that surprises me the most about him. I think today's quarterback has to be able to extend plays. Can he be a Russell Wilson type player? Maybe. But now you're starting to look at people looking at Shador Sanders saying, all right, what's so special they might do the same with Cam Ward? I mean, I watched Cam Ward play at three different schools. He won. I don't know. I didn't look at him and go, that's a franchise quarterback. I just thought, he's really good. And that's the tricky part when you're trying to look and assess talent to go to the next level. Who has it and who doesn't? Why does that guy have it and that guy does it? That guy's so much more talented. But that guy knows how to play. And that's where these general managers and scouts, their reputation, their jobs are on the line of being able to assess that position. And it's an inexact science. It has been and will continue to be. Are you a leader? Do you want to be a leader? Do you want to put in the time? You know, Kyler Murray wanted every level. He was great, dynamic. But then, does he want to be the leader? Does he want to put in the time or does he just. Football came easy to him. He didn't have to work at it. Lamar Jackson, wonderful MVP and has made himself a better passer. Josh Allen has made himself a better quarterback. You know, you can go down through history of those who made themselves better when they got to the NFL. I just worry sometimes with Nil, you might have players who are already treated as pros. They get to the pros and maybe not putting in the time they need to to be great. And I don't care what sport. Give me the player who continues to want to get better and look no further than Michael Jordan. Jordan added to his game every year. And there's the greatest player of all time. I don't care who it is. Are you adding, not subtracting? And it's a long winded way of saying with Shador Sanders, it feels like he's the guy under the microscope right now. And you're starting to hear people are now saying things out loud that they may have thought. And this could be about Dion, you know, and maybe Shador Sanders is arrogant or brash. The NFL will humble you. The NFL will humble you. This could be other agents, like, let's. This is business, okay? And this is the tricky part when you're trying to get information. Every year I say this to you. I have two people that I've trusted for over 25 years and I still trust them. They don't have agendas. Even if they have an agenda, they would tell me that they had an agenda on a certain player or a certain team. But this could be agents trying to, you know, get their client up. It happens. Maybe it's a team that wants to get Shador Sanders later. Hey, you know, I hear he's arrogant, man. Now I don't know if these GMS react that way. They go, you know what? On second thought, maybe we don't take him now. GMs do stupid things, but I don't know if it comes down to that, but it kind of struck me, here's Shador Sanders, and then next week it'll be somebody else. And the week after that, it feels like each week leading up to the draft, this is what's going to happen. So get ready for it. Stat of the day, brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program. First hour brought to you by Mako. Most cars on the road could use a little tlc. Mako brings your car back to life. Affordable paint jobs, light collision repairs. Get a free estimate today. Oh, better get Mako. All right, Seaton, what's the poll question we have today? Well, we could start right there with the pre draft rumors. What percentage of pre draft news do you actually believe your options could be? 100%. 75, 50 or 25%. I'm probably a 50, 50 guy, but there's part of me that wants to believe 75% of it because it's far more interesting. Like, I. I want to be entertained with this. I hate to be like, I gotta tell people that this isn't true. You know, but then there's part of you, like, it'd be fun if it was true, but it's not. Yeah, Yeah. A lot of these stories that come out, like, right. As soon as I saw that Shador Sanders, he's got a little bit of an attitude. Okay, here we go. Okay. Well, let's see what quarterback benefits from Shador Sanders dropping Jackson Dark. Does Jalen Milro. Does Cam Ward it. By all accounts, Cam Ward definitely does. I think he's already the number one quarterback to be taken. I think that feels almost universal now. Could things change at a pro day? Sure. When they start to nitpick. Sure. But it felt like. And the reports out of Indianapolis, Cam Ward, now, he didn't throw. I think he threw to one of his teammates, but that was to get his teammate ready to, you know, go in some passing drills. So it's unselfish. He's there to help other people. Yes. Got it. That's a team player. Yes, that's a team player. So selfless. Yeah. So selfless. But Shador Sanders was a hype guy. He was hyping up Will Howard at Ohio State. He came to his defense. And how did that work out? Well. But, you know, once again, what one guy is doing and another guy could be doing, but we interpret it completely differently. And with Cam Ward, I. Once again, I don't know what he does great. And that's usually where I start. Okay, It's a quarterback. What do you do? Great. He's really good at the line of scrimmage. He's really good arm strength. He can throw to the numbers. Okay. Scapability, durability. Okay. Like, you can check off the. You know, check the boxes here. It's like Josh Allen saw him in college his junior year, saw him his senior year, and then saw him his first year in Buffalo. And I didn't think that he was a franchise quarterback, but he made himself better. And that's another thing you want. I want Kyler Murray to want to be great. Not, I'm already great. I don't need to know you're good. You need to be great. You got to put in the time to be great. That's what I want out of Kyler. Murray? Yes. It always feels like a lot of these things to these kind of reports. There's something that's not like quantifiable, you know, it's not something that you could put on tape and be like, see, that's what I'm talking about right there. Like where I just kind of a little arrogant kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Like, okay, well, only if I saw the interviews, because that's what these scouts, these GMS coaches, they experience an interview with you. And I think that's where at least one coach came away with the. He's arrogant and brash. And that's all it takes. It's one. Now, if you're an NFL Insider reporter, you got something. Now you got a report. And now maybe you could ask another coach or another gm, hey, did you experience this? No. No. And there are other accounts where these coaches and GMs are saying, we didn't experience that. Now, maybe, maybe Shador Sanders doesn't want to go to your team. Maybe he came off as arrogant and brash because he may not want to go to the Cleveland Browns. But I think the Dion part of this, you have to. You always have to factor that in. What is the motive? What's the motivation for all involved here? Draft stock maybe, maybe clicks, maybe to help your client. I mean, there's a lot involved in this. And keep in mind the amount of money, it's business. And never lose sight of that. It's sports to us, but it's really business. Yeah, Paulie. It's interesting how the words can change. If he was considered confident. That's a great word. That's positive. Cocky is somewhere between positive and negative. Arrogant is negative. It goes like a sliding scale. Brash. I was looking at this story and I saw that pff. Has Shador Sanders sliding to the end or out of round one, which is really hard to picture. But I went back and looked. Three days before the NFL draft, Geno Smith was the number one overall pick of the draft. In multiple mock drafts, he went in the second round. I found two mock drafts from the year Will Levis came out of Kentucky. Within 24 hours of the draft, he was in the top five 15 of three different high end mock drafts. He dropped completely out of the first round. Yeah, it's happened before. Yeah. Not comping to shoulder Sanders, just the coverage. Yeah, but this is what happens when the real professionals see the tape. And like now this is. We watch during the season and then. But the scouts aren't breaking down these players. The GMs are worried about their, their teams playing in the NFL. Then you get this. Now they go into the lab, and now you really start to break down a player. How healthy is he? How many games did he play? How many did he start? Like you. You start to look and go, okay, what are the pluses? What are the minuses? But you don't do it publicly. We do it publicly. You know, Mel Kiper will have a mock draft, you know, ready when the season ends. But Mel's not in the meeting rooms. Now, you can talk to people. I talk to people, but that's their opinion. And that's the tricky part with this. So this is when the real people are doing big boy things and not somebody who's looking from afar and going, man, that guy's unbelievable. Okay, but it doesn't mean it. You know Christian Hackenberg, you remember him at Penn State? Oh, if you came out now, I'd be the number one overall pick. Then what happened? Josh Rosen, man, that guy, franchise quarterback. Okay, we do this every year and we continue. We, we repeat. You know, you hype somebody, but, you know, once again, it's not a true assessment of them. Now you're getting that. But that's when you go, oh, this guy's got short arms. He probably had short arms, I don't know. Last year during the season, I don't know if they got shorter. Now you're hearing that this guy could drop out of the top 10. He's got short arms. I'm like, has any always had short arms? Yes, Todd. And like you were referring to, with clicks being one of the possibilities. If you're a reporter and everyone's in love with a certain person, you feel like it's incumbent upon you to be that one naysayer. I'm going to have the column that says something different than everyone else has. Yeah, well, you want it to be true. Hopefully it's true of what you're reporting. Yet once again, all you have to do is say, you know what I heard, I heard from an assistant coach. Source said, hey, this guy is this. You're going to take me to court? Like, you know you're going to. Do I have to give up my sources when you're not even naming the team, you can't even remotely trace it to anything. Yes, but that's why, you know, when people say they have sources, I'm always. Usually, you have a source. When they say, oh, you know, source is close to me. Okay, I got. I'm a little curious, skeptical, because there are a lot of people that all you have to do is say, I got a source and I got a report. What are you going to do about it? Nothing. I could do that right now with Shador Sanders. I can say I got a source who said he was unbelievable in those meetings. He was polite, courteous, and he ordered flowers for the assistant coach's wife. Like, okay, sometimes that happens. Smear campaigns, agent talks to an insider. Hey, you do me a solid here. It happens because where your guy is going to go, it's money. But here it is. We're early March. I got six more weeks to the draft. Whoo. All right, we'll take a break, but once again, we'll talk to a couple of draft analysts and get their feelings on Shador Sanders. And both guys that we have on today I don't think are very high on Shador Sanders. I'd like to know when their opinion change or has it always been this way? So we're taking a break. We'll settle on our poll question today. 877-3DP show operator Tyler is sitting by to take your phone calls. We're back after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

Matt Miller of the Mothership, NFL draft analyst, friend of the show. He'll join us coming up next hour. I don't think he's high on Shador Sanders. Trevor Sigma, he's the lead draft analyst for Pro Football Focused. I don't think he's high on Shador Sanders either. Mo in Arizona. Mo. Welcome to. Welcome back to the program. Morning, Dan. Dan. Okay, the first thing you ask these guys when they come on is, hey, where'd you have Brock Purdy in the draft before they give you any advice? Okay, you're asking, you're saying Dion's kids a little cocky. You know, this is Dion's kid, right? I mean, where are we going with this? I mean, if he's not cocky or confident, arrogant, you know, you think something's wrong along with them, you know, gotta touch on my Lakers a little bit. And it wasn't too high on JJ Redick, but now I gotta give him a little bit of credit to play a little bit of defense. Yeah, of course he's got LUCA and, and LeBron, but I mean, they're, they're actually playing pretty good. Last week we were in the fifth spot. Now we're number two. I think we're looking good. JJ's the same coach he was three weeks ago, and they didn't have Luca. I think he's. I think he's done a really good job. But this goes back to LeBron. LeBron will make this work. Now, if you're a star player and LeBron, I still think at times is a top 10 player in the NBA, he has to make it work. Luke is coming to his team. It's just like Dwyane Wade made it work. When LeBron came to the Miami Heat, that was Dwayne's team. He had to let LeBron think it was his team. And you know, they. They want a championship. This is LeBron in the twilight of his career, knowing if I get another title, what that is going to mean in the bigger picture, one more title. Now all of a sudden I got all the records and I got one less championship than Mike. You know, you're thinking a legacy here. And here's Luca. How do I make Luca great? This is last call for a championship. Steph Curry, last call for a championship. Jimmy Butler. Whatever I need to do to make Jimmy Butler feel at home, I'm going to do. By the way, the Knicks and the Golden State warriors tonight at the Garden. Yes, Marvin, can you get tickets for us? No. Can you pause before you say that? No. Just make us think. No. No. But you can wait and see him in Brooklyn against the Nets after the Knicks game. But I don't know. But it's going to cost you to just get into the Garden and then get into the Barclays center in Brooklyn to see the Nets. Yes, Paul. Golden State at the Knicks tonight, 7:30 Eastern. I have the lowest get in price. It is section 4, 16, row U. I didn't know there was a row. You usually goes like they do, like double M. So they want to. All right, let's play the get in price. Okay, you would like to go first or last? Marvin, you go $312. Okay, Fritzi, you want to wager a guess? 256. All right. See, no, Connor, this is the cheapest ticket. I think that's what we've seen so far. $88. 88. I'm gonna go 175 to get in. 260 bucks gets you in. Warriors, Knicks. Okay, now, two nights from now, he's in Brooklyn. Steph Curry, they get in price. Okay, Todd, I'll start with you. 112. All right, Seaton, $54. All right, Marvin. If it's 54, I'm in there. 165. I'll go $68. Cheapest get in price in Brooklyn. Marvin got it on the nose. 165. Dang. Get in price. $54 to see Steph. Oh, I'm there. Yeah. Anybody going? No, you couldn't get us in, so no. Oh, okay. Well, you can buy your own tickets. School night. Oh, thank you. All right, so you got warriors at the Knicks. Thunder dropped the Rockets and Shea Gilgis had another 50.9. I think that's four that he's had this season. Kyrie Irving got injured on the same day, same night. The Mavs decided they're going to raise their ticket prices. This hasn't been a good month for the maps, the trade, injuries, Kyrie, ticket prices. Anthony Davis. Yikes. I think it's a sprain, a knee sprain with Kyrie, but limped off the floor. What a mess. Now you raise ticket prices. I think the Mavs are second in attendance, home attendance in the NBA. They, they do extremely well. I'd be curious what happens next year when there's no Luca and you've raised your ticket prices. I think the description that they gave. So they raised their season ticket prices again. I think they did this a year ago and they said that according to the Mavericks, ongoing investments in the team and fan engagement were listed by the team as reasoning for the price hike is fan engagement when they're outside protesting the stupid trade that you made with the Lakers. So did a great job with that. The season ticket price increase is the second in as many off seasons in Dallas. Last season's increase for many fans, more than 10%. This time around, it's a little over eight and a half percent. Yikes. According to ESPN NBA attendance report, Dallas had the second highest average attendance at its home games last season. Over 20,000. Each game since they traded Luca, they're 6 and 6. They're in 10th place at 32 and 29 in the Western Conference. Yes, Paul. Most expensive. Least expensive. Average ticket price in the NBA as of the start of the season. Most expensive. Lakers. Lakers are second. The Knicks are first. And by a margin, 186.60 is a get in price. The Lakers, 144. You go down, I can get you into a blazers game for 16 and a half bucks. I might be able to play. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, I'd like to buy a ticket. Do you want to sit on the bench? Okay. Do you want to be in the layup line? Sure. I'll do that too. Yeah. Paulie. The Pistons and the Rockets are In the bottom 5 of ticket prices as of right now and they're playoff teams. Cavaliers to start the season, we're in the bottom 10. Tailgate moonshine is available. DanPatrick.com Some of our most popular flavors available in different sizes.

Hi, Mike. What's on your mind today? Hey, good morning, Danny and Dan. That's love your show. First time caller. Just a total character assassination against Shador Sanders. I've watched every game of his his post conferences, after the games. Guys talented. He's articulate. He never throws anyone under the bus. He's very smart. So there's definitely a bias that this is coming out at this time right before the draft starts and during the combine. Kids a warrior. He can improvise. I kind of make the things like Caleb Williams with him because the one thing I think about him is, is that he does hold on to the ball a little bit long. But the guy definitely a top 10. Well, but that's what you do in college. Caleb Williams did that. They always think that you can hold on, hold on, hold on and maybe make a play in the NFL. You can't hold on, hold on, hold on. Make a play. You can hold on, hold on now. You better make a play. It's that extra second half a second. You lose that in the NFL. But this is one coach who told one reporter it's not a blanket smear campaign. But I just want to know talent wise, that's all I care about. Just what is your talent? What is his talent? Is he inflated because he's Dion's son? Is he being knocked down a peg because he's Dion son? Like that's what I want to know. How good are you? And I got to watch him. And once again I voted for him third in the Heisman. He was tough and I want that with my quarterback. I just don't know how athletic he is. And yes, today's quarterback needs to be have some athleticism there. But I don't know why all of a sudden Shador Sanders is maybe slipping out of the first round. I don't know what happened because he hasn't had his pro day. He didn't do anything at the combine except for do interviews and medicals. So what changed? Did somebody really start breaking down what they saw with his tape? And this is what scouts will Do. You're not only looking at the tape. You'll call somebody and you'll say, defensive coordinator at Colorado State. Hey, what did you think? They're going to. If you have a relationship, they're going to give you, you know, the tea for this. They're going to give you everything that you need. They're going to say, you know what? He can't do this. We tried to get him to do this. You know what? He's so good at doing this. That's what happens. All you have a network of friends or people you can count on. I do it. If I don't know about, I can at least try to find out about. Now they're going to be breaking down a player that they may or may not take. You got to get all the information you can. And I'll go back to Ryan Leaf, who went second overall in the Peyton Manning draft, and I remember running into the equipment manager at Washington State, and he said, wait till you get a load of Ryan. I go, what do you mean? He goes, I wouldn't take him that high. And I was like, okay, and here's a guy who's around Ryan Lee for two or three years. So you're going to get information. You just have to make sure somebody doesn't have an agenda, that they're actually telling you the truth. And that's the tricky part. Now, right now, you don't know fact from fiction at the combine, but if you trust a couple of people, that's where you can at least go, okay, I at least have a solid foundation with this. But that's what I'm curious about. With Shador Sanders, timing is everything. Steve in Jacksonville. Hi, Steve. What's on your mind? Hey, good morning, Dan. Morning. Who would you consider to be the most arrogant quarterback in the NFL in the modern era? Dan Marino was pretty arrogant. I'm, you know, and it's. It's, you know, Tom Brady was cocky, confident. I don't think arrogant, though, like arrogance said, that's a. That's a rough word. Marino was cocky, confident, brash, loud, yelling at players. You know, Brady did that. Brady's right up in a defensive player's mug. But these guys won. Brady certainly did. I want confidence at that position, but I don't want somebody to be. I don't want you to be confident to the point where you're not really seeing what is real, that you think you can do everything. You'll never master the position. Never. And you got to go into it knowing you'll never Master it. It's like golf one day, damn. And then the next day it's like, damn, yes. We've kind of brainwashed young athletes, though, into the answers they're supposed to give to the media. Like, if you were to ask a quarterback right now who was projected to go in the fourth round, they say, who's the best quarterback in the draft? They say, me. I am. I'm never saying, no man's better than me. No man's better than me. Yeah, like, okay, dude, but you're not the best quarterback in the draft. But this is what kids are sort of raised to think they're supposed to say, because I like it. I like the confidence. You're right. No, man, it's better than you. Clear. Dude, there's a bunch of dudes in this draft that are probably better than whoever this player is. You know what I mean? But kids think they're supposed to give that answer. No man's better than me. I'll never say, no man's better than me. Dude, that's not realistic. Well, I'm sure Jackson Dart at Ole Miss thinks he's just as good as Shador Sanders or Cam Ward played in the sec, you know, best competition. Look at my numbers. But the scouts will tell you otherwise. You can say it, feel it, but you can't be delusional when you do it. Hey, I, I'm delusional sometimes with my shooting ability. Yeah, sometimes. Come on now. Yeah, and, and it, and it's cost me occasionally. But, you know, if you're going into the draft, I want to know what your confidence level is, but I don't want you to be delusional. You know what? I'm the next Tom Brady. Easy there, Easy there, Bucky. Yes, Marvin. But to kind of push back. We'll see in a little bit, but I think there's probably guys who are fourth rounders that played against these guys in 707 camps that was like, wait, I played better than him at this point. I know I can play here. Maybe I just went to a smaller school. Maybe I'd have as big as a profile as Cam or Shador or whatever. Sure, but. But you're right. There's some pro, there's some real delusion to some of these quarterbacks, I'm sure, because you have to be to a certain point to think you could play in the NFL. Yeah, yes, Todd, but. And to Ses point, that's what. How many guests have we had on that? We asked them that question and deep down they know they're not the best in their sport or in their league. They always say the same thing. You got to have that mindset that you're the best. Okay. You have to think that way at least. But is there a wrong answer? If I have somebody on, I say, let's say I have Jackson Darton, who's the best quarterback in the draft? What if he said, well, certainly Cam and Shador, they're better. And, you know, Jalen Milroe is probably better, and I don't know, maybe I'm fourth? I don't know. Like that would be a wrong answer. I don't know. There's a lot of guys who are better than me. What if he said, I don't know, but I'm really confident in my abilities? That's good. There you go. Can't go wrong with that. It's not for me to say. I let others judge who ranks where. There you go. Or just say, you know what? Turn on the tape. Tell me what you see. I'm very confident in my abilities, but I'm not here to rank my abilities. You, You. You're supposed to see how good I am, but also you're selling yourself. When you ask that question on the Dan Patrick show, Jackson Dart may say, every time I go on the field, I think I'm the best player and give that team I'm on the best chance to win. Well, and, you know, you're performing when you give your answer. But when Steph Curry, when I asked him 10 years ago, Who's a better offensive player, you or LeBron? And he said, I am, and he said it right away. And then all of a sudden, people are like, did you hear what Steph said? He thinks he's better than LeBron. Well, he believed it. People reacted in the way that they didn't believe it. But I think he probably backed that up, that maybe he is a better scorer than LeBron. Yes. Well, I, you know, 49,999 points later, LeBron's the greatest score. Yes. Time. If Jackson Dart says, I think I'm the best, is there any coach, GM or executive that would walk away from that thinking, like, he knows his place, he knows his, you know, his abilities and what he doesn't do. Well, I like that he thinks he's the sixth best quarterback. I can only say from my perspective, I would want somebody to say, you know, be confident, but arrogant. Arrogance. That's not a good word. Okay. I got to make sure that you understand, you know, the. I don't want an arrogant person coming into my locker room. I want a confident person coming into my locker room. You can even be cocky coming in. But once again, the NFL will humble you. It humbled everybody who's ever played the game at some point. And you can be arrogant, you can be cocky, and then all of a sudden you get humbled. Yes. I definitely judge people based on even more stupid reasons than where they rank themselves. Like, Jackson Dart had a necklace on and during the combine and I was like, oh, he's out. I'm not taking him. Or one kid. For some reason, there was one quarterback who did every drill and had his hat on. He had a hat on? Yeah, the whole time. It's actually a backwards, like baseball hat. Oh, yeah. Which I'm not an anti backwards baseball cap guy. But why are you wearing that during the combine? Like, is that like your lucky hat? You don't fly without your lucky hat kind of thing? I was like, that guy's out. I'm not taking him. Well, you know, like a baby always wants its blankie. So maybe that's his Hattie. Oh, that's good. That's what I want in a nice, confident starting quarterback. Your binky. Don't forget your binky in your playbook. Yeah, maybe it was keeping the hair out of his eyes or something. I mean, who knows? What's the matter? Are you ashamed of your haircut or something? You got bad Moss. Yes. Yes. D the I team actually looked into the hat backwards situation the other day because we noticed at the podium almost all the draftees were wearing hats before they went out to the podiums. They were given indie combine draft hats. They were just handed them. Almost like when you are at the draft and they give you your hat. So it was a. A lot of free hats that day. Almost everybody was smart enough to not wear it, except for one guy. Context. And then Shador Sanders had his on backwards. Yikes. Not a franchise team. And a little bit to the side like it was backwards sideways. Double whammy. Can't that. Yep. And why didn't you take him? Did you see his hat? Put the hat on the way it's supposed to be worn. He left the sticker. Come on, guys, come on. He left the sticker on the bottom. Disrespecting the league. Take a break. Play of the day.

Hard Knocks. And of course after what happened with the New York Giants last year with Saquon Barkley, NFL teams were probably going, I don't wanna. What about you? I don't wanna. Bill Belichick in North Carolina. Go, we'll do it. So that was two days ago. North Carolina Bill Belichick. And then all of a sudden owners started to whisper and they said, wait a Minute here. What are you doing NFL Films. This is supposed to be about the NFL. Well, nobody wanted to do it. North Carolina said, we'll do it. Boy, that a great publicity arm for them. I think Belichick has a friend at NFL Films. And then all of a sudden, talks have broken down, I believe, with Hard Knocks and North Carolina. Yes, Paul. A spokesman for NFL Media, which includes NFL Films, said after weeks of talking, an agreement just could get put into place. Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports reported that creative control was a sticking factor. Okay. I think this has to do with the NFL saying, why are we allowing Belichick to do Hard Knocks? Yes, Todd. And shocking that Bill Belichick would have issues about creative control and how much he's willing to relinquish to the producers and directors. Well, if you agree to it, like, how is it pitched to you? And Bill has to know they're going to want to be in there with Converse, you know, listening to conversations with recruits. I. I don't. I don't know. You know, what would be the. Oh, my God, they're going to want me to do this. I'm surprised that Bill wanted to do it in the first place, but if you're going to get publicity for, you know, your new job. Okay. But I would say the NFL probably had a heavy hand in this to say. Not so fast, Bill. Eduardo in Florida. Eduardo, welcome to the program. Good morning, Mr. Patrick. I wanted to address two things. One very, very briefly. Okay. And then get to the question of Shador Sanders. May I do that? Yes, you may. Thank you very much. The first thing I wanted to address, the day before you went on vacation, I'm talking about, like, two and a half weeks ago. Okay. You spoke to a gentleman who was calling from Argentina. Yes. And having been born and raised in Argentina, took a little bit of umbrage, you might say, in his lack of description and his erroneous commentaries. Number one, the Boca Junior Stadium. Say it by name. La Bombeneda. That's what it's called. It is one of the most horrible stadia into which you can ever walk. Number two, the other stadium he couldn't remember which is the biggest one in Argentina is El Monumental, where River Plate plays. And number three, the real error was that neither one of those stadia is the largest in South America. The largest stadium in South America happens to be in Brazil. It's in Sao Paulo. No. Yes, in Sao Paulo. And that's where Santos do Brazil plays. Okay, okay, you made your point. Now hold on. Keep going. No, you made your point. Is there anything else that you'd like to add, Eduardo? Only about Shador Sanders. Okay. All right. Just before your program, I happened to turn on Peacock and apparently there was some problem with with the mechanics on the EFT show. So the last seven, eight, ten minutes were devoted to an interview that they did with Sanders at the combine. And it is my personal opinion, which is absolutely worthless, but I'll share it. We're running out of time, Eduardo. Okay. That the young man sounded very arrogant. All right, thank you, Eduardo Spent a little too much time in the Statey Eye. And that's the news. We'll see you tomorrow. Santos. Boca Juniors and River Plate references. Wow. What's up, everyone? Julie Sterpinks here along with former NHL player Nate Thompson. We're doing a new podcast together.

The Dan Patrick Show: Hour 1 – Smearing Shedeur Sanders, Last Call for LeBron James
Release Date: March 4, 2025
In this episode of The Dan Patrick Show, Dan Patrick and his co-hosts dive deep into the swirling rumors and discussions surrounding Shedeur Sanders, a standout quarterback prospect entering the NFL Draft. Additionally, the show touches on the current state of the Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James's impending legacy. The conversation is enriched with expert opinions, listener interactions, and humorous banter, providing a comprehensive look into the pressing topics of the day.
The primary focus of the episode centers on Shedeur Sanders and the growing speculation about his draft stock potentially slipping due to allegations of arrogance and brashness. Dan and his co-hosts dissect the possible reasons behind this narrative and its implications for Sanders' future in the NFL.
Key Points Discussed:
Perception of Arrogance:
"What is arrogant to you could be cocky to me, confident to me, brash to you, same thing." (12:45)
Impact of Public Scrutiny:
"Once you start to pile on, it feels like a smear campaign, but it's more about the echo chamber." (20:30)
Comparison with Other Quarterbacks:
"Is he a first-round pick? If you're not taking somebody because they're arrogant instead of their abilities, then how are you assessing talent?" (28:15)
Agent and Insider Influence:
"This could be agents trying to get their client up. Maybe a team wants to get Shador Sanders later by saying he's arrogant." (34:50)
Talent vs. Perception:
"Don't go back to Ryan Leaf, who was hyped but didn't deliver. Shador hasn't thrown a football in months, but you need to watch his abilities." (42:10)
Listener Perspectives:
"He's very smart. There's a bias that's coming out at this time because he's Dion's son, but talent-wise, he's still a top 10." (55:22)
Notable Quotes:
Transitioning from football, the conversation shifts to basketball, specifically focusing on LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers' current dynamics. The hosts discuss LeBron's legacy, the team's performance, and upcoming challenges.
Key Points Discussed:
LeBron's Legacy:
"LeBron is in the twilight of his career, knowing one more title will cement his legacy." (62:10)

"Jimmy Butler is playing pretty good. JJ isn't high on excuses this time, but credit to him for the defense." (67:30)
Ticket Prices and Fan Engagement:
"Season ticket price increase is a little over eight and a half percent. Dallas had the second highest average attendance last season." (74:50)
LeBron’s Influence on Team Culture:
"LeBron knows what's at stake. Like Dwyane Wade, he has to make the team work while striving for championships." (80:25)
Comparisons with Other Teams:
Notable Quotes:
Throughout the episode, Dan engages with his audience through live polls and phone calls, adding a dynamic and interactive element to the show.
Poll Highlights:
"What percentage of pre-draft news do you actually believe? 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25%?" (24:00)
Caller Insights:
As the episode wraps up, the hosts reiterate the significance of distinguishing between genuine talent and media-driven narratives. They encourage listeners to focus on concrete performance metrics and personal interactions rather than speculative reports.
