Hey, it's Bobby Bones. Join me and former NFL quarterback Matt Cassel every Wednesday for our new podcast, Lots to say with Bobby Bones and Matt Castle. Between us, we have over 17,500 passing yards, multiple New York Times bestsellers and one mirror ball trophy from Dancing With a Star. So where else are you going to find a show with that much athleticism and football insight? We talk sports, but we talk pop culture and music and. And a little bit of everything. Listen to lots to say with Bobby Bones and Matt Castle on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. We did it. We did it. We made it to a Friday. It's a meat Friday at that Philly cheesesteaks and beer battered fries coming out of the Traeger. Who has it better than we do? Nobody. I don't know why we didn't do some Kansas City ribs here. Maybe there's some favoritism going on with Tyler, who not only answers the phones, takes care of my dog, but also cooks meat Friday. So Philly cheesesteaks and beer battered fries. Yes, Paul. I hesitate to jump in so early, Dan, but objectively, as journalists, we should have some barbecue from Kansas City then. Yeah, I know. You're the boss. Yep. I'm gonna have to. I'm gonna have to talk to the chef, actually. He's a cook. He's not a chef, but he's got to be an objective, objective cook. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Well, we're already started with controversy here on this program. 877-3-DP Show Email Address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter Handle @DP Show Play the Day poll question stat of the day. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock, our streaming partner, one of our favorites, Jim Gaffigan, comedian, will join us a little bit later on. We'll talk about the NBA with a few things like the all Star snubs. Please. If you're going to complain about somebody, tell me who you're taking off the roster. Okay? It's not, it's not unlimited where you have 22 people on the. On the west and, you know, 19 on the east. It's 12 and 12. And if somebody got snubbed, tell me who you're taking off. I already know who I would put on and who I would take off. But I'll have that for you. Coming up a little bit, we got a poll question. We have the minister of humor, Fritzi. We have Dylan filling in for Seaton, Marvin Paulie up front, and yours truly. A lot of has been made of the Chiefs, their villains. And I keep thinking, are they villains? You know, when you talk about a villain, I think about the bad boys, the Pistons, like, like they were villains, but they embraced it here. You know, there's Certain wrestlers who like being the villain. But you know, what is a villain? I have the definition. But I want you to hear from Travis. Kelsey was on his podcast with his brother and talking about embracing being a villain in the Super Bowl. I love it. I mean, point. At one point in time, you know, it wasn't that you were the cinder. You. You guys were the darling of the NFL. Yeah, I was the. Do you feel bad for him, guys? And you're not the heel. I'm. I'm just. I'm enjoying. I'm enjoying doing this with the guys together, the guys that we have in there, because it's. It's like. It just makes us even more of a family. Okay. That's the new Heights podcast with the brothers. A villain is a character person who is intentionally evil or harmful to others. Villains can be fictional or based on real people. So the intentional part of that. Are they intentionally evil? Are they intentionally good or great? I think they came along at a time. We were like, yes, somebody other than the Patriots. And then all of a sudden, it's like, now we're waiting for somebody other than the Kansas City Chiefs. But, I mean, Patrick Mahomes, not a villain. Kelsey, Andy Reid, Chris Jones. I don't get it. I think we're tired of the story, and that's natural for sports fans. It's like, okay, somebody else. Boy, we're really rooting for Buffalo. Or we're. We're rooting against Kansas City because we want somebody else in there. Buffalo would be great. You know, Baltimore would be great. We want somebody else in there. This happens with dynasties. We get tired. Same stories, same people. Everybody's doing commercials. It's a big deal. Every game is the nationally televised game. It's. It's the big one on Sunday night or Sunday afternoon on Fox or cbs. So we're. We're so familiar with this story that that's why we wanted something else. Even the Eagles, you know, we had them in the Super Bowl a couple of years ago. We're very familiar with the Eagles now. You got Saquon Barkley. Okay, you can root for them. And if I never thought I would hear, you know, the national audience saying, yeah, I guess I'll root for the Eagles. You know, it's like Notre Dame or Duke basketball. Somebody other than them. Then Notre Dame became likable this year. It's like, oh, you know, there's a national audience that's going, hey, I kind of like Notre Dame this year. So the. This, I'm not buying. But Kansas City should embrace it because it's there, it's real. And, you know, fans want to see Kansas City. I don't know if they want to see the Eagles win as much as they want to see Kansas City lose. They want to see what happens with Travis Kelsey when he's walking off the field. Taylor Swift, Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid. But I look at this as extremely skilled football. All three phases, they, they just do it right. And I can't argue about, I can't complain about that. Do they get calls? Is the perception they're getting calls? Yes. But it's not their fault, you know, if they take advantage of the rules, then change the rules. You know, the Patriots, you could say, were villains because they cheated and they were involved in a couple of nefarious situations there. Their head coach wasn't likable. Brady, we embraced because it was an underdog story. Julian Edelman, Underdogs, like, they had so many underdog stories. But then we got tired of them and then they're cheating and then all of a sudden you hated to see Brady's face because the, you know, the good looking quarterback got the cheerleader and won the championship. Bill Belichick, always grumpy, even if he won. You know, we got tired of all of that. But I, I view them as villains, not the Kansas City chief. So if it, if it helps the Chiefs and Travis Kelsey and you embrace that, then great. But I don't look at them as villains. I look at them as one of the great teams of all time with what they've done this run. Mahomes and what he's done, historical Andy Reid, what he's done to maybe be. He's the guy who couldn't win the big game. Remember? Couldn't win the big game. And then he goes to Kansas City. No, great. Yeah, Maybe he'll get to a conference title game. He was good at doing that in Philadelphia. Now we're looking at him. Man, guy's an offensive genius. He should be up there with Shula, Belichick, Lombardi, I mean, all the greats and rightfully so. And Mahomes, he's going to be the greatest quarterback of all time, probably. When it's all said and done. What did he do wrong? Exactly? I don't know what he did wrong. I mean, is he cocky? Does he get calls? Okay, that doesn't make him a villain. Now, that can make you root against them because they get the calls. You know, Brady got called. The greats get calls. Or the perception is they got A call. And they're always on national TV. So you're seeing all this. They don't play 1 o'clock games. Not very often. Every game is magnified. Every game Monday is a referendum on that game and that team. Yes, Marvin. I think for Mahomes, I think it's the people around Patrick Mahomes that makes people root against him. It's not even Patrick Mahomes himself. It's the people around him. Just leave it at that. Maybe referencing family members there, maybe. Yeah. Yeah. But that doesn't make him a villain. That doesn't make the Chiefs a villain. But I would say most people, if you. You're not an Eagles fan or a Chiefs fan, you're rooting against the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. It probably, if you did a football map, I would guess that most of the states would be rooting maybe not for the Eagles, but against the Kansas City Chiefs. Yeah, Pony, but I think your point was right when you explained what VI means. Intentional. The word intentional. If you go back to Belichick, especially the last six or seven years of that run, he was difficult with the media on purpose, and it seemed like he got more difficult. And it's us against the world. And I'm going to give you a hard time because I've got a handful of rings and he could get away with it. So the with and also the cheating accusations. Some real, some not with the Patriots. That's true. Villain, a character in a story who opposes the hero. A person who is guilty of or likely to commit a crime. A person who is cruel or evil. A person who is blamed for a particular evil. Certain villains, Hannibal Lecter, Norman Bates, Darth Vader, the Wicked Witch of the West. The Wicked Witch of the AFC West, Bill Lane. Beer. But hey, I don't blame you. Embrace it. You might as well. Hey. All right, now they can't say nobody thought we would be here. You know, it's not one of those, like, they're. Villains are favorites. As far as you're not an underdog story because it's hard to hate a villain who's an underdog. Yes, yes. Dill, I think they've also been preseason betting favorites for like six years in a row. Yes. Yes. This isn't one. One of those. Oh, my gosh, heartwarming stories. It's not. But when you think about it, Mahomes was nobody in college. Kelsey was a former quarterback. He played at Cincinnati. I mean, came out of nowhere. Nobody knows where Chris Jones went to college. I think that's why when you start to look at Isaiah Pacheco went to Rutgers. Tyree Kill. Now, you know, you could maybe not like Tyree Kill, but they traded him away and they did a great job finding Tyree Kill. So I look at that front office. Unbelievable plug and play. Unbelievable. And the constant is your gm, your coach and your quarterback, and not in that order. It should be a story that we embrace or at least we respect and. But it's almost like, oh, God, I. This is going to happen on Super Bowl Sunday. There'll be that moment where, oh, God, they get all the calls. It's going to happen. And I hate when it happens because then we lose sight. Even leading up to the super bowl. This is going to be a big storyline next week. Oh, the Villains. People hate us. That's okay. Or people saying, oh, they get all the calls. Are they going to change the rules in the off season? Adam Schefter joins us now. Shefty. Are they going to change the rules? Yes. Help is on the way. Like, that's what it's going to be. Instead of, these are two great teams. Really, really well run. When you look at the GMs, the talent, both sides of the ball, Yellow Chiefs are a one and a half point favorite. I mean, this is what you want. You want a Super. You know, I used to cover the Super Bowls when it would be, how badly is the AFC going to lose? How badly are the Broncos going to lose? Oh, it's 55 to 10. You want. All right, sorry, Todd. You want competition. You want a great game. And there's so many things at stake. What would a Super bowl do for Jalen Hurts? Nick Sirianni, Saquon Barkley. We'll talk about that next hour. Add another super bowl to Andy Reid's resume or Patrick Mahomes resume. Does Kelsey retire after a Super bowl win? Like, there's a lot of great storylines here and, you know, there are times when I can be a cynic, but, you know, I still love covering sports. I don't. I, I hate being the. Oh, God, they get all the calls. That's not fair. They cheat, whatever it might be. They spend more money than anybody. Like, then you. You lose sight of what we grew up wanting and we took for granted. There weren't controversies when we were growing up. I don't know if anybody said, kind of hate the packers in the late 60s. You're like, damn, they're good. Kansas City, man. They got a weird huddle with Lenny Dawson and Hank Strand, but I like him. Joe Namath, like, that's what you grow up with. I. I'm okay with a, you know, a guy or a team that you want to beat, that they're the team to beat. I'm, I'm okay. You know, I grew up a UCLA fan and everybody wanted to beat ucla, but I like the fact that there was that one team you wanted to be. The Cowboys for a while, the packers for a while, the Steelers for a while, the Niners for a while. Man, we're so lucky to have those years where you saw greatness, true greatness. Yeah. Paulie, I want to ask you a back of the day question before we break. When Joe Namath was going to win the super bowl or getting ready to win the super bowl, was he beloved, embraced by the national sports fans or was he like, oh, this cocky guy from this upstart league? I think that since they were 18 point underdogs, that there was a, like a snickering curiosity of, damn, can't believe he guaranteed they were going to beat the Colts. And you know, he had long hair, so he looked like he was, you know, the fifth Beatle. But when you watched him play, he had white shoes and then if he was not able to play, had this big fur, white fur coat on. And so there was a curiosity. But I don't know if he was warmly embraced. I think because I grew up as an afc, AFL fan, I should say an AFL fan. So I loved that they were wide open. Football, the NFL was boring. It was like three yards here, and here's his sweep for four yards and there's a seven yard touchdown. Like, it was boring. The afl, it was awesome. It was like the aba. It was fun. And then, you know, same thing happened in the NBA. The NBA looked at the ABA and go, man, they're doing some fun things. The NFL did that with the afl. Bring those teams in, they're having fun. The Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, the Jets. So, you know, this just goes along. You know, this is history. Every few years, it's that guy or that team or both. And that's what's, to me, great about this. It's why I still love coming to work every day. You have these stories. They're fun. Embrace them. All right? We'll come back, we'll get to phone calls. People get fired up about the Chiefs. If you don't like the Chiefs, just tell me why. I'd just be curious, what is it that you don't like about them? We'll get to those phone calls. 8, 7, 73 DP show email address dp@danpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP show our play of the day as always, brought to you by Panini America.

The Chiefs are villains, generally likable or neither. Just over covered because a la Paul yeah, I think they're over covered. I, I don't think there's anything that you really dislike and if you don't like the Taylor Swift is there, blame the networks for showing her. She doesn't say, hey, I'll show up but hey, I have to have at least five on screen appearances. I think the over under for her at the super bowl is five and a half appearances on screen. You know the prop bets came out yesterday. We have some of those on the gambling podcast that's available@danpatrick.com we'll have some of those prop bets but I think over under five and a half appearances for Taylor Swift, I'm going to take the over because if he scores, you know that she's going to be on tv. If they win, she'll be on tv. If they're losing something, Travis drops a ball, then she might be on tv. But once again, you can blame Fox or CBS or NBC whenever they show them. That's that's not her fault. If they show, you know, Brittany Mahomes, Patrick's wife. It's not Patrick doesn't say, hey, by the way, can you give some love to my wife? I mean we kind of focus on on Taylor a little too much. It doesn't happen. Yeah, it's a very unique prop bet though because what if they show Taylor Swift before kickoff? Does that count as one of the five? Well, I don't know. Deep dive, I don't know. I mean I just bring up the prop bets I don't bet. I don't gamble. I gambled on the podcast by having a podcast that has Shay and Irving, Dylan and Bad Larry and Sammy P, by the way. Sammy P. He's a professional gambler, has his own show. He pulls out a ticket from August of this year that he bet on, and the bet was Saquon Barkley would be the offensive player of the year. Wow. So the bet. The ticket, if he is the offensive player of the year, is worth $2,000. So he said, I'm giving it to the guys on the gambling podcast. And Dylan is there, Ray is the producer. And I go, that's a. That's quite a gift. Yeah, Dill. Well, there is a catch, though, and that. It's a physical ticket from, I think, the Superbook in Vegas. So in order to cash it, we have to go there, so. Well, we'll be down a lot more than you will. You will. Yes, you will. Yeah. What a call, though. You'll come back having lost money instead of going out to get money. But that's a. That's an unbelievable call. He also had the Eagles and the Chiefs in the super bowl, but he says he takes the Chiefs every year to be in the super bowl because, well, why not print money?

I'll talk about this Justin Tucker situation, because I'm not gonna. This isn't Court tv. But I will talk about the football aspects of this with Justin Tucker moving forward. The Ravens kicker accused of inappropriate sexual behavior by six massage therapists. Now, this happened a while ago, but it just came to light. I don't think there's any civil lawsuits attached to this, at least not yet. He is vehemently denied that he was involved in this, but let's be fair. This was around the same time a couple of years ago with Deshaun Watson that the story came out, but then that quickly caught fire. The number of massage therapists, and there were civil lawsuits attached to that. But with Justin Tucker, you know, if I'm looking at the career timing of this, he did not have a good year. His worst year, hall of Fame kicker, and he makes $7 million, which is a lot for a kicker. He's going to be 36 years of age. This might be a situation, a jumping off point for the Baltimore Ravens. That's the aspect of this that I'm interested in now. You can read it online. There's a lot of details in there. And. But you know, these women. I haven't. I don't think there's any litigation that is pending, but it's not in the story, so I. I wanted to bring it up. I'm not avoiding it. He's been a guest on the show, been a really good guest on the show, so it's not. Hey, are you going to talk about it? Yes, but we're not trying the case. If you read the article, then you get a better understanding what's gone on. Allegedly, it's gone on. His reaction to this, but it's back to 2012 and 2016, I believe, when these accusations came up. But I care about the football aspect of this. If you want to read it and all the gory details there, go ahead. But I'm not going to try that because I'm not a lawyer and it's not Court tv. All right, let me see. How about Blake in Illinois? Hi, Blake. What's on your mind today? Hey, good morning, Dan. Daniel. I just wanted to give my thoughts and opinions on Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. What you guys said this morning really struck. Struck a. I wouldn't say a nerve or anything, but it really brought some hindsight to me that I. I think that everybody hates the Chiefs for the simple fact of everything that surrounds them. I wouldn't say that the Chiefs are villains at all. It's just like kind of what Martin said. You got to deal with Patrick Mahomes brother. You got to deal with his wife. You got to deal with Taylor Swift, even though she doesn't want to be on tv. You see all these fans coming out of the woodworks, and it just kind of. Kind of gets frustrating. Now, if you're a Chiefs fan, of course you're going to be in stride, just like me. I'm an Ohio State fan, so I love seeing them win. But when you're on the opposite side of it and you're seeing the Patriots win every year or the Chiefs win every year, it just kind of starts to get a little drawn out. And I think normal fans just need to see some change. Even though we're witnessing history, it just. When it's not your team, you're ready to kind of move on. Yeah, I get it. We get tired. You get tired of seeing, you know, the Cowboys when they were good. I'm that old. I remember when they used to be really good or the Steel Curtain. You got tired of that. But, you know, in the moment, you are watching greatness. And that, that's, you know, that's why you fall in love with sports. You don't fall in love with sports because, you know, you're cynical of everything. You know, I, I really love sports because I hate watching that team. That's not what we grew up on. I, I think it kind of evolved or devolved into that, that you see somebody, you know, social media has played such a large role, like everything is there and it's always there and everybody has an opinion on it. It didn't used to be that way. I wonder what social media would have done to Michael Jordan. I wonder what they would have done to him off the, off the court. So, you know, growing up, when he was there, you know, Magic and Bird, there's no social media. And I think, you know, because of that, you just watch what you watch. You saw what you saw and you heard what you heard. And I, that's what was great. I mean, I grew up in Cincinnati with the Big Red Machine. I didn't know what Pete Rose was like as a person. But now we find out what everybody is like and who they're dating, who they did day. What are the rumors, whispers, speculation. And that's why I comes to the Kansas City Chiefs. I do. I want to see them lose. I'd like to see them lose just because of the story attached to this. But if they win, there's a story attached to that as well. It's just we've heard that story before. If they lose. All right, now we have a little different conversation. I'm in the content business. That's all I care about. What can I get that's interesting and bring to you guests that I can bring to you? That's what it's all about. Content. So that's why I don't root. I root for a great story, no matter who wins, who loses. Yeah, Paul, also, don't you think dynasties make it easier to become and embrace sports? When I was a little kid, I didn't know a lot about baseball, but I knew the Reds were. I knew Johnny Bench was. And Perez and Concepcion because they were always there in the playoffs every year. And then those Yankees teams, and you knew all their players and Reggie Jackson. And then as a football fan, I discovered the Pittsburgh Steelers. I could name that entire lineup. I'm not from Pittsburgh, nor a Steeler fan. But they made it easier to become a sports fan. Yeah. Christopher in Nashville. Hey Christopher. Hey Dan, Dennis, Good morning. First time caller. Love the show. 59 a hard but softening 185. I think that the Chiefs fatigue was primarily. That was the chief's hate was primarily fatigue based until Patrick Mahomes tried to flop in the Texans game. That was crossing a line. We don't do that. That's not, that's not a football thing. And once he tried to flop, I think a lot of fans turned the corner and said no, they've got to go down. I think that the hatred happened long before he tried to flop. I would think so. Some of the greatest soccer players in the world flop all the time. I don't know if that means you hate Messi or Ronaldo, but Mahomes flopping. Yeah, it's football. You don't want to see them flop. But I don't think that's the reason why everybody looked at them as. They're not villains. They don't embrace. You know, if you want to look at villains, then look at the, the Oakland Raiders were villains when they played back in the 70s 80s. They were, they were villains and they embraced that. They wanted to hurt you. They wanted to take your head off. Jack Tatum. They wanted to do damage. That's a villain. Nick in LA. Hi Nick. Hey Dan. How's it going? 62250 sturdy. Just wanted to comment. I'm a, I'm a Charger fan, season ticket member and just a comment on the last caller. Yeah, the hate has gone way before the whole world shut down with COVID By the way, we as Charger fans, you know, you kind of get used to the last minute heartbreaking losses and I've seen many of those with, with Travis Kelsey walking through the end zone in overtime or you know, a Keenan Allen one minute score in the fourth quarter and then all of a sudden Pat comes down and does it. You have to respect them. I actually do want to ask, maybe we can throw a poll question on because eventually it's going to happen. But which team is going to overtake the Chiefs? Is it Harbaugh and the Chargers? Is it Carroll in the Raiders or is it Sean Payton and the Broncos? So, so you're limit limiting this to the AFC West? Well, well, I'm doing, I'm doing it for the division. And also attack each day with an enthusiasm unknown to man. Thank you, Nick. I would, I would probably say the Chargers. But look, the Broncos had an unbelievable year. The Raiders they're not ready right now, but, you know, let's find out. In two years, you get a quarterback. You know, Mahomes isn't going anywhere. He's 29 now. Kelsey's going to go somewhere. He's going to go into retirement. Maybe, you know, maybe plays one more year. But they've had plug and play. They. They keep doing that just like the Patriots. Everything they're doing is just like the Patriots. You have the coach and you have the quarterback. Now, what else do you add and subtract? I mean, they've traded away hall of Famers in New England. Like Lawyer Malloy. We're going to trade him to Buffalo. What? Richard Seymour, we're going to trade him to the Raiders. They would have plug and play. Who's the running back? I don't know. Who are these wide receivers? I don't know. Now, you did have some that were constants. You know, Gronk was always there, but that's what Kansas City has done. Kansas City got rid of the most dynamic wide receiver in the game at the time in Tyreek Hill, most explosive wide receiver. And we thought, oh, my God, what are they doing? They knew what they were doing. By the way, did the caller have your name wrong there, Marvin? Yeah, Martin made a really good point. All right, Martin, it's Mark, first of all. Yeah, I was. I was gonna gloss over it. And Paulie goes, I think you need to address that. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Hey, Martin. Hi. Yeah, Marty Martin. I love that show. Martin, Marty, you're our Marty Scorsese. Jamie in Virginia Beach. Hey, Jamie. Hey, Dan. Long time listener, first time caller. I just, I just want to say, first and foremost, I love the sport of football. And the Chiefs are true professionals across the board from the coach, the quarterback, positional players. And I forgot. And also I would like to mention that they are starting to show Taylor Swift walk into the stadium now, too. So I don't know if that counts for the over under. Yeah, they always show the walk in. Absolutely, absolutely. Dylan, can you find out, since you're a resident gambler, of how many times she appears on camera? Does that include before the game, after the game, or just during the game? I believe it's during the broadcast of the game, but I will find out. All right, but as a journalist, we need to pin this down. I'll get some sources on. Yeah, I. But I. Isn't the over under Taylor Swift appearances? Five and a half? Yeah, it's five and a half. So six to cash the over, which does Seem like a lot, even for like one and a half a quarter. I don't know, it maybe it depends on Kelsey's production. If he scores six touchdowns. Yes, Paul, I saw a couple articles discussing Travis Kelsey and some of the phrases used were down year, off year. And I didn't really track his catches this year. He had 97 catches and he had missed one game. 97 catches, that's an off year. He had 93 last year. Yeah, I know. A couple years ago he had 110 and 12 touchdowns. It feels like he's not the focus as much. But a down year with 97 catches, well, that's the bar that he set the standard. He said. I think yes, he did have catches. He just didn't feel like he was the guy you're going to. Everybody knew you're going to him this year, but you know, you get a thousand. I mean, he's hall of Famer and you could make the case he'll be recognized as the greatest tight end of all time. I mean, not statistically because Tony Gonzalez put up incredible numbers, but he's been, he's been that safety blanket, you know, it's all. He's always there. Yes, Mark, man, if you're Tony Gonzalez, you're thinking to yourself, man, where was Pat Mahomes when I was there? When he was in Kansas City? It would have been a no doubter about who the greatest tight end of all time is. Did he have Elvis Gerbach there? Brody Croyle. Brody Croyle. Bloop, bloop for that. Alabama's Brody Croyle. Let's see. Andrea in Indiana. Hi, Andrea. Good morning, Dan. How you doing? Great. I am probably one of your oldest Fans. I'm an 80 year old Lyft driver and listen to you faithfully every morning. I just can't help but wonder why people are so upset set with the Kansas City Chiefs. I mean, we're on the cusp of history and it's going to be, I think one of the most exciting super bowl games we've had in a long, long time. Andrea, are you driving somebody in your car? I am sitting in my carport waiting for my son to come out who he just has. Oh, okay, okay. Not, no, no. I do not talk, text and drive and all that crap. Okay. That's right. Live to be 80, Dan. Anyway, yeah, and as far as the Taylor Swift phenomenon goes, well, good for Travis. I don't care how many times they show her, you know, what the heck. But you know, we are so crazy. Now we pick apart everything. We look at everything, we judge everything. How about doing like my grandma used to say, taking care of myself is a full time job. All righty. How about Andrea? Yeah, Andrea. We should mind our business. Andrea. Call in whenever you want to. Loved hearing from you. Thank you for the phone call. There. More people should be like Andrea. Hardworking, 80 years of age, loves the show. Maybe don't be so cynical. Maybe embrace some things. Maybe warm up some things. Yes, Marvin. She's from a certain generation that don't take no bleep. Yeah. 80. Yeah. I love it. No, thank you. I love it. Yep. All right, we'll come back, we'll get the phone calls. More phone calls. And our play of the day is next.

What's on your mind today? Hi there, long time listener and first time caller and I'm losing my voice. It's our daughter's 16th birthday and she hates sports. My dad was a sports coacher growing up. We're long time cowboys, victims if you will. And. But yet she wants to listen to you every morning on the way to school and forever. She thought y'all were singing start of the day instead of the day. And what's your. What's your daughter's name? Her name is Meadow. Meadow. And it's. Are we ready to do a happy birthday? Nice. Thank you guys so much. Thank you, Allison. Allison had a little Demi Moore voice going on there. Losing her voice there a little bit. I was gonna say Rod Stewart, but go ahead. Rod Stewart, the deep cut. Wow. Or Kim Karns. Wow. Betty Davis eyes. Yes. I'll stick with Demi. More on this one. Yeah, that's more pleasant. Well, Kim Karns in the day, I mean, she's precocious and she knows. Yes. See what you do, Marvin. It's Friday. Get up, Martin. All the boys think she's a spy. She's God. Okay, go, go, go. All right, great. She'll tease you. Okay. Dylan, would you update the poll results, please? Yes, I will, Dan. So the question is, the chiefs are villains generally likable or neither just over covered? 67% say neither just overcovered. Yeah, they are. Yeah, that seems to be a consensus thing. But that's not their fault. It's our fault, it's the media's fault. They're good. Therefore they're going to be talked about, you know. Now Mahomes is getting into the Tom Brady conversation or maybe the Michael Jordan conversation. Andy Reid now getting into the Bill Belichick conversation. Now we're looking at them as, is this the best run we've seen in the NFL in history? Yes. Yes, Dill. I also like. How can you not root for Andy Reid? I don't think I haven't met anyone who doesn't like him. He's the franchise wins leader for both of these teams in the Super Bowl. Like, that's pretty cool. I don't think that's ever happened, has it? Look at you doing some research for a change. I know. I didn't have to read that one too. Yeah. I don't know. Don Shula, the all time victory leader for the Baltimore Colts and the Miami Dolphins. Maybe. Paul Brown, the all time victory leader for the Cleveland Browns and the Cincinnati Bengals. Maybe. I don't know. Although Marvin Lewis was there for like 15 years. It was like every year they could be moving on from Marvin Lewis. It's like. And they're bringing back Marvin Lewis. Yes, Mark. It'd be like longest active coaches, Bill Belichick than Marvin Lewis. That doesn't sound right. Let me see. Chuck in Raleigh. Hi, Chuck. What's on your mind? Good morning, Dan and the Danettes. And just a little bit of a best and worst of Dylan this week, if you will. The best being his Grateful Dead steal your face sweatshirt hoodie the other day. And not a worse, but I, I think he needed some more air time, some more opportunity, which has seemingly gotten better as the week progresses. Hopefully we'll get his best bets and on the super bowl next week, down New Orleans something. If you're going to bet Philly way or Kansas City way and then some prop bets. And speaking of prop bets, got a pie in the face bet for a Fritzy prop down in New Orleans. So Fritzi mishap pie in the face that something and nothing injurious. So we don't want Fritz you to get hurt, but a stubbing of the toe or some kind of maybe getting lost in the city. Fritzi mishap pie in the pie in the face bat. And I'm going to double down. Double or nothing. It's going to be like cocky, has upper body or lower body injuries. Very vague. But Fritzi mishap upper body. New Orleans next week. Who's in? All right. Yes, Paul. Yeah, Fritz. He will not be leaving the hotel that often and Going out on the streets of New Orleans. However, I think last year he did get hurt in his hotel room. Yes. Oh, that's right. I did. I had to go to the bathroom like two in the morning. I didn't know about that little bed couch thing that they have in front of the bed where you sit and tie your shoes or whatever that for. And I went flying. I know it's hard to believe someone of my size could actually, like, take, you know, be airborne, but I went flying and I banged my toe. It was terrible. God, I would love to have video. Bruised ankle and like, I don't know, I. I'd pay a thousand dollars right now for a video of that. Pitch black in the room. I didn't have the TV on or anything. There was maybe a little nightlight, but too far for me to see. What? I feel bad for the person underneath you. The room underneath you. They heard you. Psychic. God. Sky's falling. You don't have earthquakes this part of the country. That's odd. We should call the front desk. I don't know if you want video of Todd's hotel room that bad. Well, he's described his hotel room to me and in great detail, but I would love to have seen that. Are you naked? That's an important detail. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm a journalist. Door open at times. I'll take a nap and put like a towel down and just with my sock. No, no, what I'm saying. Were you naked when you got out of bed? I think I had a PA sweats on and probably some Bronco T shirt. Good. All right, let's ride. I share too much information. Next hour, Cam Newton, Would you rather win a Super bowl or an mvp? His answer. Got some headlines. We'll discuss that.
