Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio.
Dan Patrick
Oh, hope you had a great weekend. Gangs here ready to go on this Monday. Fritzi Dylan in the back row. Marvin Paulie up front. Yours Truly. And the back room guys. We'll check in with the whole host of the World Cup. Rebecca Lowe did a wonderful job. I thought Fox did a wonderful job as well throughout all of this. When you consider it was 39 days, 104 matches and came down to Spain dominating Argentina. And it's weird to say dominating when you win one nothing in extra time. It should have been five or six to nothing. Argentina hung in there and you could tell Spain realized if they went to penalty kicks, they might have been in trouble. But they hold on, they dominate, they shut down Messi and they win the World Cup. And by the way, in case you're wondering, I have odds for the next World cup already sent to me by DraftKings. Spain. Spain will be hosting a portion of the World cup in 2030. Then it followed by France, Portugal also hosting some of the World Cup. England, Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Netherlands. Dylan, where is the United States on this list?
Dylan
The United States is cruising in at plus 8,000.
Dan Patrick
Okay. For example, Spain plus 450. France plus 600. Portugal plus 900. England plus 900. Brazil plus 1,000. We're down the list just a little bit. Yes, Dylan.
Dylan
Yeah, we are tied with Nigeria, Mexico, Japan and Cameroon.
Dan Patrick
Okay. All right. There's time for improving. All right. We just need to get somebody to defect here. Maybe we need, we need dual citizenship. You know, you want to come over, you'll be a citizen. Kind of a Joel Embiid leaving Cameroon to come to the United States. Yes, Paul, we got to hit the portal. Well, I don't know if we could do nil for Erling Holland or Mbappe, but why not? Let's try it. Alrighty. 877-3-DP Show Email Address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP Show Stat of the day is always brought to you by Panini America.

All right. The operator Tyler sitting by 8773-DP-SHOP. Dylan will come up with a poll question as far as the world cup goes. I was curious and I'll be curious how many in the United States tuned in for it. It wasn't exciting, but it was a showcase it was a beautiful day at the Meadowlands. You just didn't have any scoring. I didn't think you would. In fact, Eric Winolda, I said to him last week, first team that scores is going to win. And that proved to be the case. And then you have to look at the messy moment that he had in this World cup, and it solidified his goat status. They did shut him down yesterday, and. But Spain shuts down everybody. 309 goals were scored in the World Cup. Spain gave up one. This is the start out of the
Caller or Guest
day
Dan Patrick
brought to you by Panini America. But Argentina could have stolen it. If it gotten to penalty kicks, I. I think they would have won. They had the better go tender, and you have better individual scores there. Boy. Spain's got a philosophy, and that is a suffocating, unbelievable defense. Now, I also said this early in the World cup, we can talk about all the great scores, and we did. It's going to come down to defense. And you saw that with Spain. I don't care, you know, what league, what sport. Eventually it comes down to defense. And you saw that Spain was throwing a no hitter. Not a perfect game, close to it, a no hitter, but the outcome was still hanging in the balance. It was fun to watch. I thought it was great for the United States to showcase the event because, look, I had two people who were involved in this, involved in the World cup, and they said this could be a disaster before it even started. Tickets, you know, sluggish. Are we going to have incidents? They're going to be issues, security. Like, they just kept running down the list. And I kept going, wow, okay. Like, I seem to go into it where I'm. I'm waiting for something to happen. It went smoothly, I think, for the most part. I think people had a great experience there. Now, I don't know if that translates to success for U.S. soccer. I think the guest that we had on during the World Cup, I mean, Kevin Frazier from Entertainment Tonight, Eric Wolda. I think their comments on our show could go a long way in helping Team USA. Maybe not 2030, but maybe 2034, where we'll look back on those comments that were really stinging for USA and what's going on inside the world of travel soccer teams, trying to get, you know, youth soccer programs, inner city, all of those different things. Two of the greatest players of all time grew up in poverty, Ronaldo and Messi. Now, I'm not saying that's where you're looking, but I'm saying they found those players. We need to Find those players to help them work their way up to maybe get on a big stage like this. So there was a lot that happened over the course of three weeks, four weeks. But I thought Fox did a wonderful job. Dylan, what's poll question today?
Dylan
Well, Dan, off of the that Spanish defense, Marvin actually sent this one over. What's the best defense in sports history? 2026 Spain. The 85 Bears. 2000 Ravens. The purple People Eaters.
Dan Patrick
Well, no, it can't be the Purple People Eaters. They didn't win the Super Bowl. Be the Steelers Steel Curtain was to me, that's the most dominating defense I ever saw. Now I'm just talking football, but when you're winning four Super Bowls and you're and your offense that has hall of Fame players on it at quarterback, at running back, you're two wide receivers, some offensive linemen, but they're in the shadows of your defense. That tells you everything you need to know. But this Spain team kind of reminded me of the Ravens where the Ravens defense was so great. They kind of just said to Trent Dilfer, give us maybe 10 points and then we'll win. That's kind of what you had with Spain. Their defense was unbelievable and they're like, just, just give us a goal. 1. But it was fun. It was fun to watch. Even though there was not a lot. It felt like the field at the Meadowlands was tilted and, and everybody was towards the other. You know, Spain was always in Argentina's end. It just felt like, man, three quarters of the match was played that way where Spain was in Argentina's territory the entire time.
Paul
Yeah, Paul, they were joking around about the Spain goalkeeper. He didn't do anything all day. He wasn't asked to do anything all day.
Dan Patrick
But it did stand out. I, I, I thought it was great. There were a lot of stars here. Rebecca Low does a wonderful job. Zatan was great. Stu Holden did a wonderful job. Really sneaky. Great. Any other poll questions here? First hour. Deal.
Dylan
Yeah. Well, thoughts on the World cup halftime show? Loved it. Hated it or didn't watch.
Dan Patrick
I didn't need it. I don't need Madonna out there. I don't know Justin Bieber, I mean, Ted Lasso came out, the Muppets were out. Shakira. Shakira. Like, okay, yeah. All right. Yeah.
Paul
Paul, I don't think I'm gonna let you besmirch Shakira. She gives you what you want. A little singing, a little shaking and let's get out of here.
Dan Patrick
She could give me more than the hips don't lie.
Paul
They don't.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. I don't know anything else she does other than that.
Paul
Fine.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. I mean, hey, congratulations. You look wonderful. But Mag out there with Ronaldo and in a car and then the Muppets and Ted Lasso and Justin Bieber, and I'm like, okay, all right, hurry up, let's go. Yes. Dylan, what about the BTS portion? Oh, yeah, of course. My bad. Yeah, gotta, come on. Gotta have BTS out there. Yes. Marvin.
Marvin
D.P. come on. You act like the dad from Footloose. Let the kids dance.
Dan Patrick
I'm sorry.
Paul
I just want to dance.
Dan Patrick
You're right. Yeah. You're right. I, I, I was, I was listening to it. I wasn't watching. I, I, I tried. I tried, you know, because then, you know, my kids are like, oh, look who's there. And I go, all right, what do you got? Okay, wake me up and it's over. I mean, tell me when it's over. Yes. Yes.
Dylan
Still, I thought it was kind of fun. I enjoyed it. It was a nice smattering of random acts and stuff.
Dan Patrick
Okay, why are the Muppets out there?
Dylan
Special guest.
Dan Patrick
But I, I like our kids going, hey, I'm not watching the soccer, but let me know when the Muppets get out there. And then the dads are going, hey, I'm not watching the soccer. Let me know when Shakira gets out there. Shakira. Shakira. What is she, 50? Maybe a little less than a. I'm gonna say 52.
Marvin
I don't know, but I'm say 52.
Paul
Closest to the hole. Yeah, you're, you're good. 49 years old, Shakira.
Dan Patrick
Yeah, yeah. Yes.
Todd
Todd, when do you think her hips are going to start to lie? When you get to 60. What's, what's the magic number?
Dan Patrick
What happens when she gets hip replacement surgery?
Todd
Very disappointing.
Paul
A whole new video.
Todd
It changes the whole dynamic.
Dan Patrick
By the way, you can buy a portion of the field according to the athletic. FIFA is hoping to generate over $11 million if all the pieces sell out. So you can, between 450 and $1200, you can get a patch of grass. How about that? The three thousand dollar version. It's a three by three by three section. A gold etched metal souvenir ticket. A mini replica World cup final ball in a crystal cut glass World cup trophy. All right, sign me up for three grand for that. I still couldn't help but watch that and say, boy, that field looks gorgeous. Why can't the Giants and Jets play on that field they can. It's just the NFL owners aren't going to do it. We'll talk to Mike Florio from Pro Football, talk about that moving forward. Not going to happen. Any other poll questions? By the way, best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that you like. We do it every Monday. Yes.
Todd
Todd, I want to know, is it such a financial burden to switch it to protect the player's health? But maybe I'm ignorant, too. If you got billions of dollars and you're going to be able to have these players last longer playing on grass versus turf, why they would be so hesitant to do that?
Dan Patrick
What else could it be?
Todd
I just, it seems like there's more than enough money going around. The NFL gets bigger and bigger and the networks and they all get a bigger share of things and just seems like I don't understand why they can't all get together and do this. It's for the benefit of the players and being able to stay around longer on their teams that they have.
Dan Patrick
Well, there's maintenance cost. What's it going to be like in December in Green Bay? What's it going to be like in December at the Meadowland price of doing business? Thank you. But they, they want something that they don't have to water, they don't have to cut. All right, you know what somebody got, you know, the Meadowlands famous for players getting injured in that, you know, environment on that turf. So you would think, let me protect my investments instead of saying, next man up, I don't want to have a grass field. Yeah.
Paul
Paul, there's an article just yesterday in Forbes about this topic, and they said artificial turf is one cost up front, but less to maintain over the years of the turf. Grass is you got to have a staff, you got to have people deal with it. And, and it's not as consistent. They also, the NFL over the past five years has released a few studies, air quotes that said the injuries are similar at both turfs.
Dan Patrick
Okay. The Open Championship, you had Ryan Fox win. Foxy, they like to call it, came out of nowhere. This is a guy who made his PGA Tour debut at age 37, and at age 39, he rolls in a birdie putt to win for the last six holes. That's one of those where you watch somebody and you say, that guy's winning the Open Championship. Down the stretch, big putts and you know, they thought it was going to be around nine or 10 under to win it. And he rolls into birdie after round one. He was 85th after round two. He was 52nd. That's where you just play the long game instead of saying, I'm going to try to shoot something really low and win it here. It just you don't want to shoot something high and take yourself out of the running. A lot of fun there. You had a moment with Bryson DeChambeau. He was going to take his ball and go home. We'll talk about that coming up. And Rory McElroy with one of the more honest answers I've ever heard. We'll have that for you coming up as well. So just getting started. Tyler sitting by. You'll take your phone calls on this Monday. Best and worst of the weekend. We we're back after this.

NMLS 696891 Michigan is making it official their athletic director, Ward Manual will step down at the end of the year. I thought it was gonna be this past Thursday, that's what I was told. Then they got to the Thursday not deadline, but at least day of reckoning and they move past that. The investigation, the details, they are expected to be released soon. Go back to August of 2025. The NCAA announced financial penalties against Michigan expected to exceed $20 million. This related to Connor Stallions, the sign stealing. Also, Ward Manual fined Sharon Moore back in December when the school learned of an inappropriate relationship he had with a football staff member. So that is expected to happen at the end of the year. By the way, if you're watching on Peacock, yes, I did get a haircut, but not just any haircut. This is the trial haircut before the wedding. So my daughter said, hey, can you come in and go to this hairstylist and let's get a real good haircut? I said, okay. So I had my daughter there watching me get a haircut. And you know, then it was like this whole, you know, everybody's waiting for me when I come outside and they're like, oh, you look so much younger. It. This is great. And now I have four weeks and then I have to get a haircut again before the big day before the wedding. Now this isn't as bad as Bad Larry. Bad Larry, of course, used to be on the gambling podcast. His daughter asked him to get new teeth. So. So it wasn't that, you know, it wasn't like, can you, can you freshen up your grill, dad? It was just I got a haircut. Guillaume gave me a wonderful haircut. And first time with Guillaume. It's one of those places where you go in and, and there's like a downstairs mood lit loungey and I'm asked what I, you know, do you want something to drink? Probably six or seven times. And I go, no, no, just here for a haircut. And, you know, then. Then Charlie gives me a shampoo, and then I'm in the chair. And then he said, how do you. How do you want it? I go, no, this is up to you. Whatever you see, I'm a blank canvas. Go ahead. I'm a piece of sculpture. I'm, you know, whatever you want. Carve me. Carve me up however you want to. Did a nice job. Professional cut. And now I'm going to see how this works over the next couple of weeks. And then prior to the wedding, going back in with Guillaume. Yes.
Paul
Paul, did Giliome look back at your history, like 90s sports centers, maybe some Olympics just to get them?
Dan Patrick
No, no, didn't bring in any pictures. You know, that's what, you know, people do. Women will bring in a picture and say, I'd like that kind of cut. Like, it looked like that. I was the only guy in there. There were, you know, it's big business, big business. And, you know, women will spend a couple, like three hours there. I'm in and out. I got things to do. I had a nap. So I'm like, well, let's go. Yes.
Marvin
Marvin, how does your daughter and your wife like it?
Dan Patrick
Oh, they liked it. Yeah, they liked it a lot.
Marvin
Did they love it or did. It's okay.
Dan Patrick
Well, I think they might have overreacted because this is where they go to get their hair cut, their hair done. And in fact, all of my daughters go there. So they. I think they were saying it because they've gone there. They like, you know, the. The hair cutting place. I don't even know what it's called. Salon. That's what it's called. It's called Salon. Yes.
Dylan
Dylan, you think they might be a little biased out of the gate?
Dan Patrick
Yeah, yeah, it's okay.
Dylan
Did you get any other requests for, like, your appearance for the wedding? Was it just the hair? Was there? I know you said no teeth, but.
Dan Patrick
No, I think it was just hair. I already got my tuxedo. I got my suit for the rehearsal dinner, but no, I think I'm good. I think I'm good to go. I just got to get my speech, and I'm gonna write it down. Not going off the cuff. I'm gonna write it down, and then I'll give it to my daughter. After the, you know, my speech, I'll go over there and hand it to her. Be tears all over It'll be, you know, ankle be running. Yes, Todd.
Todd
Broadcast teleprompter. Are you just gonna have a piece of paper? Because, you know, you're used to the whole. You can handle the teleprompter nicely.
Dan Patrick
By the way, that teleprompter story about the guy who runs the teleprompter for President Trump in the White House, he was betting. You know, you can bet on the over under of the anthem at the super bowl, but you can bet on just about anything now. The over under for the president's speeches. So this guy make made like $100,000. And once again, this is a warning. If you think you're going to get away with something, you're not, like, eventually you're going to get caught. The Cardinals have an executive, Ryan Gold, who apparently bet or somebody in his family, somebody he knows, got information about the Arizona Cardinals in the first five draft picks and made $700,000. Now, I'm told only two people knew the draft picks with the Cardinals, the owner and the gm. But somehow this guy had the inside information. And then now it might be his wife that the attorney said it might be. You know, it's not my client, it's his wife. But you're betting and it's a lot of money. Like, you know, nailed the first five picks. Doesn't Jay Glazer do this all the time? Yes, Todd, we all want to make
Todd
a lot of money, but can't you stop yourself just for a moment and ask yourself if I somehow this gets traced back to me or gets flagged, do I have any way to explain how I would have known this and nailed all these picks or a military operation, since I'm one of the heads of the military and I know exactly when, you know, things are going to be blowing up and stuff like that. I don't know how they could possibly think it's not going to get fled.
Dan Patrick
My source goes hard to believe that this guy's wife randomly picked all five picks. If so, she should have her husband's job. But let me see. Here we go. So the NFL suspended the personnel executive, Ryan Gold, indefinitely. He placed, get this, a $25 wager parlaying the results of the team's first five draft picks. The wager paid out $732,500. Man, I just got lucky, you know, that's. That's all it is. I just got lucky. Okay? The lawyer said that he did not, you know, place this bet that somebody else and maybe it pointing fingers to his wife yes.
Todd
Todd, if you're going to go all in and just bet 50, 100, $500 if you don't think you're going to get caught. Oh, $25 under the radar. I got to keep it to 25 or less. They'll never know.
Dan Patrick
And that's what people think. You're like, nobody's going to. The guy who runs the teleprompter for the president is probably saying, nobody's gonna know. I'm running the teleprompter for the president. His speech, I got the over. Under. I'm going over two hours. Yes.
Paul
Paul, I would love to know how this played out in real time. If you're executive for the Cardinals in the war room and the pick goes in, there's only a moment, maybe two minutes, three minutes where you could get your bed in and you have to do this seven times. Five times.
Dan Patrick
Five times. But I don't know if you had to pick the five picks prior to the draft, but I don't know how you could go, here's the. Here's our first five picks. This is who we're going to take. But that's what I thought that. Wow. Did they know who they were going to take? Yes, Dylan,
Dylan
we actually, we. We have a chance to make a little scratch here. Dan, we should get odds on what you're going to say in your speech
Dan Patrick
for the wedding and then maybe, maybe the. Over. Under.
Dylan
The. On.
Dan Patrick
How about over, under. Crying. Over, under. If I said two and a half minutes over, under, crying.
Paul
Paul, two and a half minutes into your speech.
Dan Patrick
Yeah.
Paul
I don't want to jinx you here, but I think you get choked up in the first 10 seconds and then you gather and continue. Oh, I'd like to take that if it's available.
Yamaneika Saunders
All right.
Dan Patrick
You know, stealing.
Caller or Guest
Dang.
Rory McElroy
Yeah.
Dylan
I think a better bet is would. Will you be crying after two and a half minutes into the speech? I agree with Paul. I think if anything, it might start before the speech.
Dan Patrick
Okay, so you're going under.
Dylan
Yeah.
Dan Patrick
Okay. Two under.
Marvin
Marvin, I think you cry as soon as you open up your piece of paper.
Dan Patrick
Okay. Todd?
Todd
Yeah. I'm going with Marvin. Very under. I think you're going to get emotional just looking after everybody and seeing everybody all dressed up in their wedding gear.
Dan Patrick
Well, you are seeing your life in front of you. When you think about it, when the dad gets up there for the wedding speech and you look out and you see brothers, sisters, their kids could be aunts, uncles, neighbors, people who have grown up, you know, in Your child's life, all of that. That's what hits you. Because my wife goes, you've handed out the super bowl trophy in front of a hundred million people. I said, I didn't know any of those people. She's like, ah, I can't believe you cry so easily. I go, okay, imagine if I didn't cry. I didn't have that emotional tug. Then everybody'd be like, you didn't cry. What's wrong? I said, I don't want to be like, Paulie. Hey, true. I cry. So what? Yes, Todd, I think.
Todd
And I think this would help you if you accept the fact that, you know, this is a very endearing, awesome thing to allow your emotions to show and not harp or obsess about, you know, if I'm going to break down and know that people, I think would appreciate their dad's emotion, and then maybe that'll help you maybe not be as emotional, because it's not such a big deal if you do it.
Dan Patrick
I don't have a problem crying, okay? It's the noise I make when I cry that I keep trying to tell you tears don't make a noise, but when I give you projectile. That's the problem, Todd.
Todd
Okay, that is a pretty pathetic sound. Revisit how emotional you're going to get.
Dan Patrick
Yes, Dylan.
Yamaneika Saunders
Yeah.
Dylan
You don't want there to be any, like, snot factor during the speech.
Caller or Guest
No.
Dan Patrick
Maybe I'll have a pocket kerchief there to wipe my nose.
Dylan
Classy.
Dan Patrick
Thank you. Yes, Marvin.
Marvin
And also, crying is contagious. So you might have other people in there boohooing, getting all obnoxious also.
Dan Patrick
But that's okay. But nobody's, you know, noticing them. You know, you're up there in front of 150 people, and they're all waiting for me to cry. They know I'm gonna cry. Then my daughter's gonna cry, and then my daughter's got her makeup on. And then, you know, so they're, you know, it's this avalanche of tear. What?
Todd
But you're so competitive. You're so competitive. If they're waiting and rooting for you to cry or expecting you to cry, you're gonna. You're still competing, like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna show you. And then you're gonna make sure you aren't as emotional.
Dan Patrick
I'm thinking of beta blockers, like an archer. Yeah, well, I'm sure that other people use it, but, yeah, beta blockers trying to, you know, maybe get mellow, get chill. But I'm Going to try beta blockers before. I'm not going to do it, like, right before I do my speech. But that was suggested to me by, by my daughter. Yes. Yes. Dylan, I don't think.
Dylan
I think you want to feel everything. I, I would skip the beta blockers. I, I, I know I've recommended the sunglasses to you before, which you rebuffed. I don't know why that's, it's going to be outside. I feel like that's an easy one. Give you a little bit of, you know, cover.
Dan Patrick
No, it's inside.
Dylan
I thought it was outside.
Dan Patrick
Well, the wedding is the ceremony is not. The speech is inside.
Dylan
Oh, okay.
Dan Patrick
And I, I know wearing sunglasses so that, that, you know, like, weird. Get up there with sunglasses if it's an out.
Dylan
If it was an outdoor ceremony.
Dan Patrick
No, it's not.
Dylan
Okay, well, then take your beta blockers.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. Yes.
Todd
I think you're just overthinking it. Whatever happens, happens. And it'll be the genuineness of the moment that's captured for everyone to see and hear forever. And you want to look back on and show that you are hiding something. You are fighting. You took some kind of medication to control your emotion. It's silly. Whatever comes out, comes out.
Dan Patrick
They're not gonna know that I'm on beta blockers.
Todd
I say natural, organic, whatever word you want to use, whatever is meant to happen, however it comes out, that's. That's your genuine emotions, and that's what you become.
Dan Patrick
You get beta blockers on tap. Maybe I'll just have, like, you know, drink some beta blockers. Yes.
Paul
Paulie, here's an idea. If I were producing this speech.
Dan Patrick
Oh, my God.
Paul
I think I have an idea. Your son is pretty stoic guy. He handles himself pretty well. He's a funny kid. What if you had your son right next to you as, like, the rock, little arm on the shoulder.
Dan Patrick
Yeah, I've already said this.
Paul
He's definitely in.
Caller or Guest
Yeah.
Paul
I thought you were going solo.
Dan Patrick
No.
Rory McElroy
Okay.
Dan Patrick
I'm never going solo. I've said all along that my son will come up there and interpret. Fill in the gray area.
Paul
Okay, good. That's locked.
Dan Patrick
Yeah. So when I get started, I'll say I want to bring out my son Jack, and then Jack will stand up there, and then if I start to lose it, then he'll take the mic and he'll try to say nice things about his sister and her husband. Yeah. So it'll be fine. It'll.
Dylan
Yes, Dylan, so you have. Your son has a bailout plan, but sunglasses are just like beyond the pale.
Dan Patrick
No, it's funny if my son's up there and then I start to break down and then he says, you know, he grabs the mic until I gather myself. Sunglasses is just non personal. I mean, it's like, hey, I'm cool. I'm gonna hide behind these sunglasses.
Dylan
No, I'm crying. That's why I'm wearing these.
Dan Patrick
I won't act like Bryson DeChambeau did at the Open Championship. Okay. By the way, so Bryson was thinking about taking his ball and going home because he was improving his lie and he was in like the fescue and it's like, you know, hip high and was he doing it intentionally? And. And if you watch it, he is like, he's stomping around too much. And, you know, they penalized him two strokes. Now, this happened to me accidentally at pebble beach. When I played in the Pebble Beach Pro Am. My ball was in the rough in like really thick rough, and I was trying to see if it was mine. So, you know, you're kind of stepping down on the grass a little bit. And a guy that I was playing with, not a pro, but a guy, another amateur, he came over, he said, hey, don't let him see you do that. You'll get two stroke penalty. I'm like, oh, my God. But Bryson DeChambeau knows the rules. And they, you know, said, we're going to dock you two strokes. And then he talked about maybe not coming back. Here's Rory McElroy on his feelings about Bryson DeChambeau.
Rory McElroy
You know, I think there's no doubt that he improved the line of his backswing. So, you know, and again, it's like whether it was careless or whether it was intentional, I don't think it matters. Hopefully it was careless, but I think the two shot penalty was justified for sure.
Dan Patrick
What do you think the scenes after?
Rory McElroy
Obviously you guys were delayed getting your tee times as well because of it
Dan Patrick
all going on late night for everyone.
Rory McElroy
Yeah, I won't pretend to be up here and defend Bryson. I'm not particularly fond of him. I think a lot of it's performative. I think a lot of it's for attention and yeah, to hold the tournament hostage like that and have all of us volunteers, players, everyone waiting on him to depart. I didn't feel like it was a great look.
Dan Patrick
That's pretty honest answer. Rory is one of my favorite interviews because I do think that he thinks about every question you ask, even if he's heard it a hundred, five hundred times, he still gives you an honest answer. You know, it's no secret that I don't like the guy. Thought it was performative. They're throwing the temper tantrum. I did reach out to a golf source and I said, would Bryson DeChambeau. Did Bryson DeChambeau reach out to President Trump? President Trump and Bryson play golf. They're friends. And from what I was told that one of the higher ups, maybe CEO of the rna, the Royal and Ancient, was asked this question and said, I have not received a phone call from President Trump. We'll see what happens from here. But I thought this might be one of those that, look, I gave you the information on the president did get a hold of. I mean, he changed the red card for Baligan. He changed it. And he went to the one person who was heading up all of this. And that's the amazing part of this.
Sofi Personal Loan Advertiser
He.
Dan Patrick
I think there's 18. What did I say to you last week or the week before? 18 members of the committee with FIFA and the President went to somebody who he has business relationships with and this guy made the decision. There was. There was nobody. There was no vote whatsoever. So when the president said, hey, I'm the one that changed this, he did. He went to one person that. So here it is. FIFA disciplinary committee is comprised of 18 members. When the decision was made to lift Baligan's automatic ban, an unprecedented action, it was taken by one person, one person only, the chairman, Mohammed Al Kamali of the United Arab Emirates. The committee was neither informed nor consulted. The UAE is a top tier relation of the Trump family, business interest and government relationships. It was like, hey, I need a favor done. Let's take a break. We'll give you our play of the day. Phone calls coming up. Settle on our poll question. Rebecca Lowe. She will join us coming up next hour. Back after this.

What do you have for me?
Chris in Syracuse
Hey, thanks, Danny. I got a best and worse. And also on the World Cup, I enjoyed the offensive explosion on Saturday and also the tight defensive battle on Sunday. It was all good and best Friday night, Caitlin Clark with an historic 45 points, 10 assists and 29 minutes of play. And also with the World cup over, LeBron has center stage all to himself. So I bet he announces his decision today and I still think it's Miami east is an easier conference. He's familiar with Spoelstra and Riley and I think when Luke and Austin Reaves were both out at the end of last season in the playoffs, LeBron found out he can still be the guy and teamed up with Giannis. He may not be the only star, but he's definitely a co star and throwing. Bam. They're going to be a tough in coming out of the east and worst hearing the possibility that still Adam Silver's holding up schedule at least until LeBron picks a team. The NBA has plenty of great stars, great teams to fill up Christmas Day and every other day with or without LeBron. And maybe Adam Silver should be worrying more about figuring out the Clyde Leonard situation instead of worrying about where LeBron's next landing spot is.
Dan Patrick
Thank you, Chris. I was surprised he said the quiet part out loud when he said you were waiting for the schedule. You know, we would think you would be waiting for the schedule. But then he did say it out loud and yes, the Kawhi Leonard. I don't know how you even allow the trade to go through or let them talk about a trade when you really haven't decided what kind of punishment here for the Clippers and or Kauai. So he's kind of like, is he still in la? When, when does he go to Toronto? Is he allowed to go to Toronto? Do you, do you buy or do you rent in Toronto? Buddha in San Francisco. Hi, Buddha.
Caller or Guest
What up, VP?
Happy Monday, boys. Let's go BRGs. Well, Dan Manix was right. Spain is stacked. And then the World cup final was kind of anti climactic in my opinion with all the buildup and hype. I mean, Messi looked old and ineffective and Spain just kept it like, you know, playing. They didn't, they seem to be playing with their food the whole game and the celebrity watching was good at halftime and you know, I don't know, it was, it was kind of, it was kind of mid for me. Best of the weekend, Ryan Fox Jr. The third Dan, he might be teeing it up right now as we speak.
Dude.
Dude was not waiting around for anything. And it was like, was it me or. If you go back to the tape, he kind of looked like he had some vantages yesterday where he could have passes Fritzi in a golf outfit.
Dan Patrick
Thank you, Buddha. I love when a golfer plays quick. Ryan Fox plays quick. Ludwig Oberg plays quick. It's the guy who's there. He's waiting and he's looking up and then he waggles and he looks up and he looks down. Yes, Dylan.
Rory McElroy
Yeah.
Dylan
If you like fast play, don't watch. Patrick can't lay on the putting green. Yeah, you'll be there all day.
Dan Patrick
There are certain guys that you'll, you know in a moment of privacy when you ask, what's it like to play with that guy? And one guy said, I can't. I'm not going to tell you, the golfer. But, you know, he said, I end up talking to my caddy far more than I ever do. Just because you can't sit there and wait and watch. Because I'm always curious by proxy or through osmosis, whatever it is, when you're watching somebody. Like I try not to watch Dylan when he shoots on the basketball floor because it kind of affects me and how I shoot. I can't imagine if you're watching somebody and they're taking forever ever, that it doesn't affect you of. Wait, how long do I take when I swing? Because these guys take a long time. Matt in Nashville. Hi, Matt. What's on your mind?
Chris in Syracuse
Hey, Dan. Dan. Chris. It's always tough to follow.
Dan Patrick
I got a bad connection there, Matt. Feels like we might have been on speakerphone. Red in Georgia. Hi, Red. Welcome back.
Caller or Guest
Hey, Dan, thanks for taking the call, man. I really like that BRG thing. Bright room, guys. Hey, look at, look at Danny. I'm not excited about this. Whatever they played over the weekend, I think they call it soccer like everybod. Hey, I'm ready for some football. We got a couple more weeks for football. Hey, how hard it is. Hey, Dan, compare Hawkins to soccer. You got the lil dad, the big guy standing in front of net. I think that's more difficult than going 90 something minutes just to kick a big off arm ball and this little big old fishnet they could score for one goal. What's so exciting about that, Dan? Bring on me some football. Cause hey, I'd rather see. Being a Raider fan, I'm ready to see Fritz and my Little Pony jersey that he be wearing.
Dan Patrick
Oh, all right. Red. Thank you.
Todd
Fire.
Dan Patrick
I got to get Red in Georgia and also James in Virginia. Talking to each other. What update do you have? First hour results on the poll question. Dill.
Dylan
Well, Dan, what's the best defense in sports history? We went with the 26 Spain. The 85 bears of the 2000 ravens or other. Paul, you'll be happy to hear 43% say the 85 bears.
Dan Patrick
There we go. You know, it's dine out on that.
Paul
Yeah, oddly, I agree with your point, Dan. The Bears did it for one year and they accomplished something for one year. And you have to give the nod to the Steelers because they dominated for four Super Bowls.
Dan Patrick
Yeah, I think the Bears are a disappointment because they only did it for one year. It's like the 86 Mets a disappointment. They did it for one year. The Giants winning a Super bowl with that defense. LT and company a disappointment. They should have had a couple of Super Bowls in my opinion. Yes, Marvin, But I'm gonna cut on
Marvin
some slack because the 49ers were there. Obviously the Giants that the Rams with Eric Dickerson. That was a tough NFC right there.
Dan Patrick
The Redskins at the time you yelling at me.
Marvin
I was just, it was just intense.
Dan Patrick
Rebecca Lowe, she will join us after a wonder a wonderful World cup hour two on this Monday after this.
Yamaneika Saunders
This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human.
Date: July 20, 2026
Host: Dan Patrick and the Danettes (Fritzi, Dylan, Marvin, Paulie, Todd)
Theme: Wild World Cup, Soccer’s Defensive Masterclass, Betting Scandals, and Emotional Dilemmas
In this episode, Dan Patrick and the crew break down a dramatic World Cup conclusion, discuss Spain’s historically dominant defense, preview U.S. soccer’s prospects, humorously debate wedding speeches and emotional moments, and cover the latest in sports betting scandals. The conversation seamlessly weaves between high-level soccer analysis, inside baseball on sports management, NFL field debates, and the lighter side of Dan’s personal life, maintaining the show’s trademark humor and insider banter.
Opening Review (02:13): Dan opens with shoutouts to Fox and Rebecca Lowe for World Cup coverage:
“Rebecca Lowe did a wonderful job. I thought Fox did a wonderful job as well throughout all of this.” (02:18)
Spain’s Dominance: Despite a narrow 1–0 extra-time win over Argentina, Dan calls it a “domination” given the shot disparity and control:
“It should have been five or six to nothing. Argentina hung in there... Spain had a philosophy, and that is a suffocating, unbelievable defense.” (03:12; 06:23)
Messi and the GOAT Debate — Messi’s quiet final, but career validated:
“You have to look at the Messi moment that he had in this World Cup, and it solidified his GOAT status.” (04:03)
Stat of the Day: Spain conceded only one goal all tournament.
“Spain gave up one.” (05:55)
Comparison to NFL Defenses: Spain likened to 2000 Ravens:
“Their defense was unbelievable and they’re like, just, just give us a goal.” (08:52)
“Two people... said this could be a disaster... It went smoothly, I think, for the most part.” (07:06)
“We need to find those players to help them work their way up to maybe get on a big stage like this.” (07:52)
“Where is the United States on this list?” (03:29) “The United States is cruising in at +8,000.” (03:32, Dylan)
Entertaining but Over-the-Top: Madonna, Shakira, Justin Bieber, Ted Lasso, the Muppets, and BTS all performed.
“I don't need Madonna out there. I mean, Ted Lasso came out, the Muppets were out... Shakira, Shakira. Like, okay, yeah. All right. Yeah.” (10:39)
Quips & Banter:
“Why can’t the Giants and Jets play on that field they can. It's just the NFL owners aren't going to do it.” (13:02)
“If you got billions of dollars and you’re going to be able to have these players last longer playing on grass versus turf, why… so hesitant?” (14:09, Todd) “What’s it going to be like in December in Green Bay?” (14:40, Dan) “Artificial turf is one cost up front, but less to maintain over the years…” (15:10, Paulie)
“This is a guy who made his PGA Tour debut at age 37… at 39 rolls in a birdie to win.” (15:33)
“There's no doubt that he improved the line of his backswing… the two shot penalty was justified for sure.” (37:00, Rory McIlroy) “I won’t pretend to be up here and defend Bryson… I think a lot of it’s performative.” (37:23, Rory McIlroy)
(Dan: “That’s a pretty honest answer… Rory is one of my favorite interviews…” 37:49)
“Cardinals have an executive, Ryan Gold, who apparently bet or somebody in his family, somebody he knows, got information about the Arizona Cardinals… made $700,000.” (26:17)
“Placed… a $25 wager parlaying the results of the team's first five draft picks. The wager paid out $732,500.” (27:48)
“[Teleprompter operator] betting on the over under of the anthem at the Super Bowl… $100,000.” (26:04)
“Not going off the cuff. I’m gonna write it down, and then I’ll give it to my daughter… Be tears all over.” (25:31)
“How about over, under. Crying. Over, under. If I said two and a half minutes over, under, crying.” (29:49)
On Spain’s Defense:
“Spain gave up one [goal].” (05:55, Dan Patrick)
“This Spain team kind of reminded me of the Ravens where... just give us a goal.” (08:52, Dan)
On the World Cup Final:
“It should have been five or six to nothing. Argentina hung in there.” (03:13, Dan) “Spain was throwing a no-hitter. Not a perfect game, close to it...” (06:32, Dan)
On Halftime Madness:
“Ted Lasso came out, the Muppets were out, Shakira, Shakira. Like, okay, yeah. All right. Yeah.” (10:39, Dan) “She could give me more than the hips don’t lie.” (11:08, Dan) “You act like the dad from Footloose. Let the kids dance.” (11:43, Marvin)
On Betting Scandals:
“My source goes hard to believe that this guy's wife randomly picked all five picks. If so, she should have her husband's job.” (27:48, Dan)
On Crying at His Daughter’s Wedding:
“How about over, under. Crying. Over, under. If I said two and a half minutes over, under, crying." (29:49, Dan) “Projectile. That’s the problem, Todd.” (31:48, Dan) “I don’t want to be like, Paulie. Hey, true. I cry. So what?” (30:36, Dan)
Rory McIlroy on DeChambeau:
“I won’t pretend to be up here and defend Bryson. I'm not particularly fond of him. I think a lot of it’s performative. I think a lot of it's for attention and yeah, to hold the tournament hostage like that… I didn't feel like it was a great look.” (37:23, Rory McIlroy)
This hour of The Dan Patrick Show combines a rich, multi-angle postmortem of the 2026 World Cup with classic banter on sports culture, league drama, and the lighter, personal side of being a sports dad. Spain’s historically stingy defense, odd halftime show choices, and the ongoing struggle of American soccer are all dissected with detail and wit. The show then shifts to the problem of turf vs grass in the NFL, the latest Open Championship drama, and snarky (but real) discussions about the growth of sports betting controversies. Dan’s personal prep for his daughter's wedding brings in humor, vulnerability, and a group bet on how many seconds before he cries — the heart and heartiness of the show in a nutshell.
Next Hour: Rebecca Lowe joins for further World Cup reflection.
