Dan Patrick
Final hour in this Thursday, we'll talk to the former charger. Philip Rivers finally got around to announcing his retirement. CC Sabathia, freshly minted hall of Famer, will join us momentarily. The last women's major of the season, and it's the world's best testing their metal, the AIG Women's Open. That'll be coming up July 31st through August 3rd on NBC USA and streaming on Peacock on, which is where you'll find this show. Good morning. If you've downloaded the app, our phone number 8773 DP Show. We'll get to more phone calls coming up. Update the poll results as well. He is CC Sabathia, hall of Famer now, how does that feel to be called a Hall of Famer?
- [04:00]
CC Sabathia
Feels good. It feels good. I mean, it's, it's real now, you know, I mean, I gave the speech and had a chance to get up there and see all the guys. So it feels, it feels, feels good.
- [04:12]
Dan Patrick
Your wife doesn't call you hall of Famer, does she?
- [04:15]
CC Sabathia
Nobody in this house.
- [04:19]
Dan Patrick
How nervous, how nervous were you? Compare that to pitching in a World Series when you give your hall of Fame speech?
- [04:28]
CC Sabathia
I was pretty nervous. I mean, you know, knowing, you know, from the time that you get elected that, you know, you have six months to kind of give this speech and talk about, you know, your life and this life achievement and who you want to thank and, you know, all these different people. So that, that gave me a lot, a lot of anxiety. But I feel like the way I deliver my speech and not trying to thank a bunch of people and just tell stories about, you know, who, you know, helped me get to this point. I think that, you know, helped me out a lot. But I'll tell you a quick story about the World Series. You know, I would get nervous when I walked out before games or Whatever. And, you know, that postseason in 09, I wasn't getting the butterflies. I was just feeling good. You know, I was feeling confident. I was feeling like I was going to pitch well. And, you know, I went out for the same thing in Philly. I went out for game one. It was in Yankee Stadium, and everything is fine. Like, I feel great. Great October night. And, you know, my routine was after we threw the ball down to second base, I would go walk the A rod and get the ball from him with my bare hand. And I walked. Walked over to him. He tossed me the ball, and he was like, let's go. I looked at him, I was like, let's go. And I looked down at the ball, and it said 09 Fall Classic on it. And I immediately broke out. I hadn't been nervous the whole time until I looked down and realized what I was doing.
- [05:53]
Dan Patrick
Like, damn, I'm in the World Series.
- [05:56]
CC Sabathia
I get the. Over the ugly. Then I kind of, like, got back into it. But, yeah, I mean, I broke out in a full sweat. Like, oh, my God. Like, this is game one of the World Series.
- [06:05]
Dan Patrick
When you're at the hall of Fame, do you meet anybody who brings back bad memories?
- [06:11]
CC Sabathia
Oh, no, not bad memories. You know, just like, I'm a. I'm a huge baseball fan. So just, you know, they had a garden party on Friday night that Jane Forbes Clark hosted. And everywhere I looked around the room, I'm seeing my favorite player. Like, I grew up playing, you know, Nintendo RBI baseball. And it's Rob Carew in there. It's. You know what I mean? It's your Eddie Murray. It's Ken Griffey Jr. Is Sandy Koufax, Randy Johnson. I mean, it's everybody's favorite player in the room. And on Friday night, I'm not gonna lie, I got, like, a little imposter syndrome. I'm like, should I. I be in this group? You know what I'm saying? Like, this is like the elite of the elite. And to be part of that. That. That crew now feels good.
- [06:57]
Dan Patrick
But. But there's nothing. Like, I gave up a home run to that guy. I hope he doesn't bring it up.
- [07:03]
CC Sabathia
No, I mean, that's. That's the perfect time to bring it up, right?
- [07:06]
Dan Patrick
Like, yes, as a Hall of Famer.
- [07:08]
CC Sabathia
Yeah, I gave up a couple of homers at Ichiro. You know, we always tell. The story is, you know, it's fun now to be able to tell those stories in that room because, you know, you're all on the same team, couple.
- [07:19]
Dan Patrick
Of home runs to each hero.
- [07:21]
CC Sabathia
Yeah, yeah. Couple of home runs first time. So I started throwing 2006. Me and Carl Willis were trying to figure out an out pitch, and, you know, I was throwing like, this big, loopy, kind of slurred curveball thing. And we went down to the bullpen in. In Oakland, and he was like, I'm gonna teach you how to throw a cutter. So we came out of that bullpen session with, like, this 82 mile an hour, 83 mile an hour slider. And me, in my mind, I'm thinking, oh, this thing is disgusting. Like, I'm taking this right into the game. So I take it to the game, get onto an Ichiro, hit it off the window. It's first at bat. You know, it's Ichi. You know what I mean? Like this. I've seen this thing move like it's nasty. So he comes up again. First pitch, I throw it to him. First pitch of that bat, he hits it out again. But they ended up becoming like my out pitch. You know what I'm saying? Like, that's the pitch that, you know, kind of took my career to the next level. And, you know, he loved it the first time he saw it.
- [08:16]
Dan Patrick
Well, no, it was his out pitch. He hit it out of the ballpark. Who picked out the Jordans that you wore during your speech?
- [08:27]
CC Sabathia
It was. They were actually specially made from Jordan. They were kind of. I made a bunch of shoes my. My last year in 2019, during players weekend, and they were combined like a high school shoe. It has some Milwaukee stuff in there, some Cleveland stuff in there. The cool part about it is I played for three teams that have navy in it. So, like, you know, the left shoe was. Was navy and gold, and that represented my Yankee, you know, Milwaukee and Cleveland. Cleveland days. And then the right one was red, which represented my high school. So, you know, I'm just forever thankful for the Jordan family. The way they treat us after retirement is special. And, you know, I wouldn't want wanted any other way than going in the hall of Fame wearing a pair of Jordans and a pair of threes. Up on the. Up on that stage.
- [09:16]
Dan Patrick
Okay, but what was it like the first time you. I. I think you were the first baseball player part of the Jordan brand, or does that sound about. I was.
- [09:23]
CC Sabathia
I was the third. So it was. Derek was the first, and then it was Andrew Jones and. And then me. And.
- [09:29]
Dan Patrick
What was it like, first time you met Michael?
- [09:31]
CC Sabathia
Oh, it was incredible. You know, he. He's. You got to be confident when you around mj, right? Because he's, he's the, he's, like I said talked about earlier, he's everybody's favorite player. He's, he's the alpha of all alphas. So you gotta, you know, you gotta be confident when you're around him. But I, but I enjoy spending time with him.
- [09:49]
Dan Patrick
CC Sabathia, the newly inducted member of the Baseball hall of Fame. You know, you did all these things with the Yankees, but it feels like people still bring up what happened, like the last two months when you're with Milwaukee, where they were like three days rest. Cece, go out there and get them. And you had an incredible, you knew that you were, you were leaving Milwaukee. They knew you were leaving, but they worked your ass off. And, you know, I, I still look back on that. I mean, that's an amazing run. What, what were your thoughts when they kept sending you out? And it felt like on three days rest.
- [10:26]
CC Sabathia
Well, it wasn't, it wasn't so much them. They were, you know, they were kind of freaking out just along with everybody else. My agent, everybody, except for kind of me and my wife. Like, I told her, you know, how I felt. And the biggest thing was, you know, I had got traded from, from Cleveland. And, you know, I had been in that organization from time I was 17 and that summer I was, you know, 28 years old. I've been there for, you know, 10 and a half years. And, you know, when I walk into the clubhouse in Milwaukee, you know, I was scared to death. I didn't know what was going to happen. I had never been in another organization. And I walk in and my best friend Dave Risky is there. I play with him in Cleveland. And then Mike Cameron is there and Billy hall is there and Prince Fielder is there. And, you know, these are still some of my closest friends to this day. All those guys I just named were in Cooperstown, you know what I'm saying? So I just didn't want that season to end. And I felt great. And I felt like I was going to go out and win those games. And it was more so about me going in there and telling them I'll pitch on three days rest than it was them, you know, asking me or okay, even wanting me to do was more me. So one thing is, is, you know, during that time, I never in my career felt like I was going to, you know, knew that I was going to win games. And during that time, I felt like, you know, if you give me the ball, I can go out and complete a game to Win the game. So I wanted to get that, that franchise in that. In that city, into the playoffs. And I think it was more about me, you know, telling them that what I was doing more so than. Than them, you know, kind of. Kind of asking or demanding.
- [12:01]
Dan Patrick
The car breaking down en route to Cooperstown. That's what, a three and a half hour drive that took eight hours or so to get there?
- [12:09]
CC Sabathia
Yeah, three and a half hour drive normally. And for some reason, you know, normally when we go on a road trip, me and my wife, we drive all over Martha's Vineyard, Hamptons, whatever. If we're on a road trip, she drives so slow that I'm usually like, I'll meet her at the house and I'm there by, you know, an hour before, for some reason on that day, I was riding behind her. And, you know, we were just, you know, kind of making our way up there and we had the kids with us. And we pull up on the side of the road on 17 to get on the. On ramp. And she stopped. She's got let up, let a bunch of cars go by. And I saw, I called her. I'm like, what's going on? And she was like, my car just stopped. And I'm like, what? And I could tell in her voice that she was really irritated and, you know, on the verge of kind of, you know, not breaking down, but kind of crashing out. And my kids and I can't take anything seriously. So we all get out of the car, kids start making tick tocks. I'm taking pictures on the side of the road. She's very serious in the back, calling the, calling the tow truck. But, like, people start noticing us on the side of the road. They're honking, we're laughing.
- [13:15]
Freddy
It.
- [13:16]
CC Sabathia
It made for a good time. And, you know, I feel like we, we know every time that we're all together, my wife and I and the four kids, if we're traveling, we're going, something's going to happen. So, you know, we're used to it and, and we always make the best out of it, but makes for a good story.
- [13:32]
Dan Patrick
Who gave you the Oakland Raider helmet behind you?
- [13:36]
CC Sabathia
This is a, this is actually a phone. My cousin, Demetrius Davis, was Mr. Irrelevant, I think it was in 1990, and he got all these different gifts from, you know, from every team. You get a gift. And this was the, the phone from the, from the Raiders.
- [13:56]
Dan Patrick
So that was on the draft. That was on their table.
- [13:58]
CC Sabathia
Must have been on the draft. Yeah, this must have been on. On the draft table. So you know, you get, he was Mr. Relevant. You get a bunch of different trophies and stuff. And this is the one thing that I kept. And I got this Marcus Allen Super Bowl, super bowl helmet right here that I always keep up. And you see my Raiders clock that just went down. But I always have to have something Raiders around.
- [14:22]
Dan Patrick
It seems like you're a football guy more than a baseball guy.
- [14:25]
CC Sabathia
I'm just a fan of everything. I'm a huge, huge, huge sports fan. But the Raiders are, I'm die hard Raiders. Like I, I don't waver at all. If you, you watch me with my basketball, I'm usually picking the best team just because I'm always in a bad mood after football season. So I got to pick basketball season. So if the warriors aren't in it, I, I'm always going for a winner. But yeah, I mean, I'm just a, a huge Raiders fan and I don't think that'll ever, ever leave me.
- [14:56]
Dan Patrick
Okay, what do you think's going to happen this year?
- [14:59]
CC Sabathia
Hopefully if, if, if, if we can stay healthy. I mean, the defense is really good. You know, I love Brock Bowers. I would love to see what Gino Smith is going to do for us, but I think if we can stay healthy, we'd be okay. I mean, obviously we're in, in that division with, with Mahomes and you know, the Chiefs and I think Justin Herbert is great. I even think Bo Nixon and the Broncos are, are going to be good. So it's going to be a tough division, but we'll see what happens.
- [15:29]
Dan Patrick
If you could have Geno Smith as your quarterback or Tom Brady comes out of retirement.
- [15:35]
CC Sabathia
Oh, I would want Tom Brady to come out of retirement to like run the organization. I need, I need somebody young, young with fresh legs. I mean, I'm fine with Gino being quarterback as long as he can stay healthy, but I want Tom to like really be hands on and be running like the football ops.
- [15:52]
Dan Patrick
Yeah, it's probably going to happen sooner than later.
- [15:55]
CC Sabathia
I would love that. I would love that.
- [15:57]
Dan Patrick
Congrats. You're always great guests. We appreciate it. Congrats on the great career and thanks for joining us.
- [16:04]
CC Sabathia
Appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks for having me.
- [16:05]
Dan Patrick
That's CC Sabathia, just got inducted into the Baseball hall of Fame. There's nothing better that I want to hear than when somebody says, got a quick story to tell you. When he tells me about the World Series, when he looks at the baseball and it says the 2009 World Series and it's printed on the baseball and the fact that it hit him that he's now pitching in the World Series. That's what you want. I love when I get stories from these guys. Philip Rivers, he better be telling stories. Fritzi, he's ready. Oh, he is? Okay. All right, we'll take a break then Philip Rivers will join us. And I know we're backed up with phone calls. We'll try to sneak those in as well. We're back after this Dan Patrick show.

- [20:26]
Freddy
From scratch and so the succession plan of long term success needs to be defined. We need to embrace this community. When I was 13, my uncle took me to a quality qualifier and we watched Paraguay against Chile pouring rain. Just watching the fans jumping up and down, I think that was definitely a watershed moment for me. Not only was that going to be my game, but it was going to be my life.

Dan Patrick
Iheart Women's Sports, waiting for Philip Rivers to join us. Just announced his retirement. Then he stopped playing like five years ago. Maybe this is his second time announcing that he's retiring, but he'll join us coming up. I saw this story that Michael Phelps, the great Olympian, is going to give the Ravens players swim lessons. And I wasn't sure exactly what this was, but. But if it truly is Michael Phelps, who is a Ravens fan, is going to give the players swim lessons. I think it's great because here's something that at least this is how I looked into it. I read into it. There's a lot of African American players who probably didn't get swim lessons, didn't have a pool that was accessible to them. And here you have Michael Phelps. So now you can get swim lessons. You're in your 20s or 30s and you know, you're probably embarrassed to say that, you know, hey, maybe I could get swim lesson now you can do it and Michael Phelps is going to help you. So I think it's a wonderful gesture and I don't know, Marvin, if you read into it that same way. But, but I did that. In the African American community, you, you didn't have or don't have accessibility to pools and to learn how to swim.
- [24:26]
CC Sabathia
Yeah, for me, I didn't, I didn't think about that until you said it. And it makes perfect sense because the previous generation that's, you know, they're 40, 50 years old, they didn't know how to swim because their parents weren't allowed to go in pools and things like that. Not to go to a deeper topic, but that's, it's pretty much generational because you learn how to swim from your.
- [24:46]
Freddy
Parents and a lot of them, their.
- [24:48]
CC Sabathia
Parents didn't know how to swim. And so I think that goes a long way from what you said.
- [24:52]
Dan Patrick
Yeah, the team has a new pool and I guess there's a lot of players that are going to take Michael Phelps up on the opportunity to learn how to swim. He's Philip Rivers. He played in the NFL for 17 seasons and now a high school coach. Look at there. You look good. You look like you're ready to play.
- [25:11]
Freddy
What do you say, Dan?
- [25:12]
Dan Patrick
Could you play right now?
- [25:15]
Freddy
Oh yeah. I'm a little heavier than I was, but I could get through a game now. I may need a wheelchair the next morning, but. Oh yeah, I can still, I can still. I can still play a little bit.
- [25:26]
Dan Patrick
Okay. Did you need to announce like did you retire twice?
- [25:32]
Freddy
No.
- [25:32]
Dan Patrick
Here.
- [25:32]
Freddy
Well, yeah, I don't know, maybe. Yeah. The reason there was a little bit of a wait is I honestly wasn't I. There were a couple November decembers there in 2021, 2022, where I was getting, I was staying ready. I was, I was, I threw on shoulder pads a few times and a helmet and throwing in the yard and, and working just in case. And there were a few things that kind of got close. But then the last two years is pretty much I've known I've been done it really just time I wanted to retire a charger and do it, do it right with the Chargers over 16 years. Gates coming up with the hall of Fame, one of my favorite all time teammates and locker mate side by side for 16 years. I was, I was doing some stuff, some video stuff for Him. And I was like, hey, guys, when are we going to do this? I want to retire a charger. Should we do something on video? And it's. It just all worked out.
- [26:24]
Dan Patrick
What team or teams called you.
- [26:28]
Freddy
I knew you were going there. I guess I teed you up for that one, Dan.
- [26:31]
Dan Patrick
You can say it now.
- [26:33]
Freddy
No, I know. It doesn't matter. Yeah, well, I think, you know, it was the year that the 49ers had the injuries at quarterback, you know, and before. Early on, before Purdy really got going, you know, it was. There's still probably six weeks left in the year, and it was. So there's a little interaction I've had there with John Lynch. Certainly kept in contact with the Colts that first year, year or so out when the Saints had the injuries, you know, I think they called Drew and I both. I remember being on a phone call with Drew, and it was over Christmas, and it was like the first Christmas I'd been on, you know, been off and not playing, and. And I was like, I can't believe I'm even considering this. But Drew and I ended up talking about, hey, were you serious? And he was asking me if I was serious. And I was like, it sounds good. You know, it sounds good in theory, but then it's like, man, I felt like the later the season went, I was going to become a guest quarterback. And to me, that just was what ultimately. Ultimately, the teams didn't want me to. It didn't get that far to where it was in my control, but I didn't want to be a guest quarterback. You know, you wanted to at least have some camaraderie and some sense of, man, I've been in this. On this journey with you guys, at least for half a season. But when it got to the playoffs, it's like, man, you're going to go and play one game and you're either the hero to help him win or you came in and cost him a playoff game. So it just didn't make a whole lot of sense.
- [27:52]
Dan Patrick
Yeah, you could have been a Joe Flacco.
- [27:56]
Freddy
Yeah, yeah. Which. Shoot. I thought it was awesome. I was. I love watching Joe and pulling for Joe when he was in that situation.
- [28:03]
Dan Patrick
But take me back to when you came out of college. I remember the knock on you was your arm. Your arm angle or how you, like, how you threw. Like, it felt like that was one of those. You. You just didn't throw it the way quarterbacks, the other quarterbacks threw the ball. Is that correct?
- [28:21]
Freddy
Yeah, yeah. No, it is. I Think it gradually got less and less awkward, you know, as, even as my career went. There is a uniqueness to it and I shoot, I appreciate that now. You know, I hear you hear people say, oh man, that's how Philip Rivers threw the ball. So I guess uniqueness to it, that's end up being kind of one of my trademarks. But growing up as a son of a coach, I was the ball boy in boy when my dad was coaching high school ball 5, 6, 7 years old and I was throwing a regulation size football. So that's the only way I could throw it. You know, you kind of laid it in your hand and, and, and, and pushed it. And so then as I grew up, you know, as I got bigger and stronger in my hand, could reach, there was still an element of that, you know, muscle memory motion that just became my own. And, and so that's where it was. I remember Norm Chow, you know, we had, we had one of the great offensive coaches of all time in college football at NC State my freshman year. And the first day he watched me practice, he, he asked me if I was hurt. Is your shoulder, is your shoulder, is your shoulder bothering you? And I said no, my shoulder's fine. And he sent the tape off to Mike Holmgren and said, hey, you need to take a look at this. And Coach Chow ended up telling me, Holmgren said, if he's not getting balls batted down and he's accurate, he said heck with it, leave it alone. And so we did.
- [29:39]
CC Sabathia
We did.
- [29:42]
Dan Patrick
How is the position changed? Like what's the most important part of playing the position?
- [29:49]
Freddy
I still think, and I am biased I guess a little bit. I bet if you asked most pocket pastors like myself, they may say this may not. I still think you got to be able to stand in the pocket and make quick decisions and be accurate with the football and throw it from the pocket on third and eight in crucial situations on a two minute drive. All those things that, that is still going to be a necessity of playing the. To me I think it's a bonus. It's a bonus if you can do the other stuff like many of these guys nowadays can. You know, the Josh Allens and Lamar Jackson's and Bo Nix has the ability to run, you know, as you know, had an unbelievable rookie year, obviously Mahomes and I'm leaving guys out unintentionally, but if you can do those things, it helps you, but you still got to be able to stand in there and make a throw and take a hit right under the chin. Because if you can't do that, if all you can do is just kind of run around and you're a 50% passer, I don't think you can last.
- [30:45]
Dan Patrick
He's Philip Rivers, NFL quarterback for 17 seasons. Fan base that probably disliked you the most was which fan base?
- [30:55]
Freddy
Probably Denver.
- [30:57]
Dan Patrick
Okay, let me. Can I bring in. Fritzi is a Denver Bronco fan and he all my guests. So Fritzi would always complain that you complain too much, that you wind too much when you play. This coming from a Bronco fan, would you say that's fair assessment of you? You were critical. Philip Rivers whining TEAM yes, and I hope Philip agrees.
- [31:17]
Freddy
And I got nothing against the guy, but being a huge Bronco fan Since I'm like 7 years old, I did see, like, there was a lot of complaining to the officials, a lot of trash talking. Even though he didn't curse, he. He was always kind, I guess, with his trash talk. But there seemed like a lot of whining was going on.
- [31:31]
Dan Patrick
Okay, Phil.
- [31:32]
Freddy
Yeah, I can see it. I can see it coming across as whining. It was more a fire and passion and drive to want to win the stinking game and call to be right and for the, you know, all those things to go. So. Yes. Would it be classified as whining in some cases? I'm sure. I'm sure it would. I'm not proud of every. Every moment. Believe me. There's some. Many that I look at and I go, man, I lost my mind. What was I doing? But there's a lot of it that I laugh at. And then there's a lot of it that I go, man, I hope people realize how much I love playing. I love playing just like I was as a kid in the backyard. And I got to do it as a, you know, 40 year old all the way through my 30s, 250 times. And that was. It was truly just how you would be in the backyard, you know, playing with your buddies or brothers and arguing and carrying on and talking smack and all those things.
- [32:20]
Dan Patrick
But you did it in a polite way. Like, how do you talk trash in a polite way?
- [32:25]
Freddy
Yeah, I don't know if it's necessarily polite. I think sometimes maybe that's what made it sting a little worse. It wasn't the four letter words.
- [32:34]
Dan Patrick
Wait, wait. How would you talk trash to me if I'm a defensive player? I just sacked you and I got something to say to you.
- [32:43]
Freddy
Oh, I don't. I mean, I was going to say, Dan, I could better do it with you and your role there. I'd be like, dan, really? You're going to start off the interview saying, I retired twice? I mean, come on, I haven't talked to you in five years.
- [32:53]
Dan Patrick
You know, hey, will you stop whining?
- [32:56]
Freddy
I didn't retire twice, Dan. Ask me something else. How long are you going to do this, Dan?
- [33:02]
Dan Patrick
How. How are the kids? What, are there 10 kids now?
- [33:06]
Freddy
Yeah, there's. There's 10. And I got a little grandson. I got a little grandson. My oldest two daughters are married, and my oldest daughter and her husband have a little, little boy that's almost a year old. So that's a blast. And then, shoot. The other children are growing up fast. So I have three that are out of the house or high school or beyond this year, and then still seven at home. Three boys, seven girls and three boys. But they're growing up fast, man. My oldest son will be the quarterback again this year at the high school. He's a junior, and he's gonna have a chance. He's going to have a chance to play at the next level, which is exciting. I was going to say, too. Back to the throwing motion thing. I threw that way because I think I had a ball, you know, a big ball when I was little. He throws that way a little bit. I don't know if it's just from watching me or if it's just in our DNA, but he's a little more over the top. But when people watch him throw, they go, man, he throws it like you. And I go, well, he did watch me play for his whole life growing up.
- [34:01]
Dan Patrick
Why didn't you teach him how to throw like Brady?
- [34:05]
Freddy
Brady's a little too over the top, you know, a little too over the top.
- [34:07]
Dan Patrick
What about Aaron Rodgers?
- [34:10]
Freddy
I like Aaron Rodgers. Motion and he flicks it. He can throw it every different way. Mahomes kind of can throw at every different arm angle. I was kidding about Brady being Dr. Over the top. But. But, but I think the different arm angles is huge. Is key, you know, it's key to be able to do that because you're throwing it. People think, you know, to me, the height thing is not as big of a deal. You know, Drew Brees, one of the best ever. Six, you know, six foot or so, but is. It's not as much a height deal as ability to throw arm angles. None of us are throwing over six, six linemen, you know, none of us are. So you got to be able to throw around and change different arm angles as the pocket, you know, collapses. On your changes.
- [34:47]
Dan Patrick
Philip is the head coach at St. Michael Catholic High School in Fairhope, Alabama. How would you assess the Chargers this upcoming season with Jim Harbaugh?
- [34:58]
Freddy
I'm interested to see them. You know, they made some, made some additions in the off season. You know, they, they got a lot of good young offensive linemen, obviously. Derwin James still kind of the captain over there on that defensive side. And Justin Herbert is, you know, a heck of a player. Heck of a player. They, they, they, they, they nailed, they nailed that pick. It was the timing of me to move on and then to get one. They got a good one. They got a good one. So excited to see, to see them this year. Certainly. I still pull for the Chargers. I pull for the Colts one year there, but then also one of my closest coach friends, Shane Steichen is the head coach there. And then I pull for the Eagles. Sirianni being there. Coach Sirianni was, I was with him a long time with the Chargers as well. So you find yourself pulling for either coaches you were with or teammates, you know, that are either at the, at the, at the team you were on or either they're somewhere else. You know, you pull for them on Sundays. And we still watch, we still watch, watch all day. We go to mass on Sunday morning and we have games on every TV.
- [35:58]
Dan Patrick
We can find your longest career run.
- [36:02]
Freddy
Long career run. I probably, I don't know. I know y' all got the stats in there. Fritzi, what is it, 11 yards?
- [36:08]
Dan Patrick
You know, it's 18, 18.
- [36:11]
Freddy
18 yard run. My favorite run was against the Ravens in the playoff, divisional round playoff game. A third down and I kind of got out of there and got a big first down and was able to kind of do the first down sign, you know, that you see all the wide outs and backs get to do. I felt, I felt like a real, I felt like a real athlete. Like a real athlete, my teammates. Keenan Allen, he was miked up on that play. And you can hear him saying, do it, do it, do it. You know, he was like, he was like, proud of me. Like I was actually going to like.
- [36:43]
Dan Patrick
Do a little something like a parent watching their kid take the first step. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But was there somebody slower than you in the NFL at quarterback?
- [36:53]
Freddy
I believe I could outrun Peyton and Brady.
- [36:56]
Dan Patrick
Okay.
- [36:57]
Freddy
Yeah.
- [36:58]
Dan Patrick
But that still makes you slow.
- [36:59]
Freddy
Oh, it does. I definitely, definitely wasn't fast. Roethlisberger, Ben could run a little better than me, maybe as we got, you know, as he got later in his career, maybe. But now Ben could run. See, Ben. Ben was one of those, you know, throwback quarterbacks that could run, you know, and he wasn't going to run for 70, but he had a. He had an ability capability in the pocket that was. That was unique. I think that certainly helped his. His game and why he had a lot of success.
- [37:27]
Dan Patrick
If Michael Vick and you ran a 40 yard dash.
- [37:32]
Freddy
That may be one of the fastest men I've ever seen on a football field. We were at The Falcons in 25. I believe it was four or five. I wasn't playing. Drew was the starter. I was backing up and he scrambled left down our sideline and scored and scored with it and ran through the tunnel. And I just remember going, that's. That's just not fair. It's not fair that he can run like that and throw.
- [37:57]
Dan Patrick
Yeah. Let me know if you retire again. We'll have you back on. But if not, good luck with the upcoming high school season.
- [38:05]
Freddy
I appreciate it, Dan. And hey, Fritz, you said I probably did complain and whine, but what made you so mad is we were beating their tail a lot of times. That's fair. That's part of the reason why I was upset with.
- [38:14]
CC Sabathia
You beat the Broncos too much.
- [38:17]
Freddy
There's smack talk right there.
- [38:18]
Dan Patrick
Yeah, take that, Todd. Yeah, that's smack talk. Very impressive. Thank you. Thank you, Philip.
- [38:25]
Freddy
Appreciate you guys. Thanks.
- [38:26]
Dan Patrick
That's Philip Rivers. That's talking trash.
- [38:31]
CC Sabathia
That's so good.
- [38:33]
Dan Patrick
Take that. Oh, Todd, your face when I brought you in.
- [38:37]
CC Sabathia
What are you doing?
- [38:38]
Dan Patrick
I know you said you weren't going to do. You're like, I never said that. I love you bring up Philip Rivers whining all the time.
- [38:46]
CC Sabathia
True.
- [38:47]
Freddy
And he has a good point because a lot of times he would kick the Broncos butts. And that makes you frustrated and angry.
- [38:53]
Dan Patrick
Yes. Paulie.
- [38:56]
Freddy
This just into the I team. Philip Rivers career versus the Broncos 13 and 16.
- [39:05]
Dan Patrick
That was your. You could have returned.
- [39:07]
Freddy
I didn't. I should have done a little research while he was doing his kind trash talk today. Under 500 against Denver.
- [39:13]
Dan Patrick
But imagine if somebody is going to trash talk you. But they don't curse. Yeah, like it would. It would sound weird. Like, dad gummet. You. You're gonna get it. I. We're gonna score on you. G Willikers rap.
- [39:32]
Freddy
You grabbed my face mask.
- [39:33]
Dan Patrick
How'd you miss that?
- [39:34]
CC Sabathia
Kicking your tails.
- [39:35]
Todd
Oh, golly gee.
- [39:36]
Freddy
How did you not call it?
- [39:40]
Dan Patrick
Oh, crying out loud. It's. It's kind of like that scene in Back to the Future when Michael J. Fox's dad is yelling at Biff. Hey you Biff. You get your hands off her. You know. All right, let me take a break. Last call for phone calls. What we learn what's in store tomorrow right after this.

We need to embrace this community. When I was 13, my uncle took me to a qualifier and we watched Paraguay against Chile, pouring rain. Just watching the fans jumping up and down, I think that was definitely a watershed moment for me. Not only was that going to be my game, but it was going to be my life.

Honestly, adults don't ask the right questions. Now, you know what? Noah de Barrasso is a show about influence. Who's got it, how they use it, and what it means. For the rest of you, it's not the news. It's what the news should be if someone Gen Z or Gen Alpha made it. When I'm watching everything, Sheesh. Majority of the youth 18 through 24 say they trust Republicans more than Democrats to fund the economy.

Dan Patrick
Fritz. He did a great job. Justin Herbert, Philip Rivers, CC Sabathia. Telling stories. That's what this job is all about. Get out of the way and let them tell stories. Allen in Charleston. Hey, Alan, what's on your mind today?
- [45:37]
Todd
Thanks for picking up, Dan. Yeah, Todd, I'm an old man at 77, but I agree with you.
- [45:45]
Dan Patrick
Well, we got a bad connection. Doesn't that always happen when someone takes my son?
- [45:49]
CC Sabathia
All of a sudden, the phone stops.
- [45:51]
Dan Patrick
Sorry. Interesting that happened yesterday. Somebody was going to say something nice about you. Yeah, bad connection.
- [45:56]
Freddy
I have to agree with Todd.
- [45:59]
Dan Patrick
Yes. Why don't we make up for it then?
- [46:01]
Freddy
Because you're right, Dan. Todd did do such a great job today.
- [46:04]
Dan Patrick
Todd, who do you have lined up for tomorrow?
- [46:05]
Freddy
Lewis Riddick joins us tomorrow and working.
- [46:08]
Dan Patrick
On a few other things. All right. Okay. Every day is the Super Bowl.
- [46:11]
Freddy
It is.
- [46:12]
Dan Patrick
Okay. Every single day. Every single day.
- [46:15]
Freddy
Once in a while, it's the Pro.
- [46:16]
CC Sabathia
Bowl, though.
- [46:19]
Freddy
Some days it's the Rams, Patriots, Super Bowl. That's fair.
- [46:24]
Dan Patrick
Game once in a while on Tuesday. In the middle of summer. Yeah.
- [46:27]
Freddy
Get a Hall of fame.
- [46:28]
Dan Patrick
Can't do that, Todd.
- [46:29]
Freddy
I know. Sometimes it's a flag football game. We just got to get out of it.
- [46:32]
Dan Patrick
Jimmy in Chicago. Hi, Jimmy. What's on your mind?
- [46:36]
Todd
Hey, then, great job on Family Feud. I just wanted to say the. During the Fast Money, the first question they asked you, how many fingers am I holding up? I just thought that was bizarre. I just never heard them ask that before. And out of the Dennis, who would you say is the best? Is the best actor, McLovin included.
- [46:54]
Dan Patrick
The best actor. Wow. I don't know if I've seen the full scope of their acting abilities. At least I. I hope I haven't their range. Yes, Eaton. Marvin acts like he likes us every.
- [47:09]
Freddy
Day, and he's pretty convincing that.
- [47:11]
Dan Patrick
That's fine. Okay, I'm gonna give you a bloop on that one.
- [47:15]
Freddy
Slam.
- [47:16]
Dan Patrick
All right, so, Marvin, I guess you're the best actor.
- [47:19]
Freddy
He acts like he likes us. You see how I'm faking this laugh?
- [47:22]
Dan Patrick
No. Seaton's got the fake laugh in Tahoe that somebody held a camera up in my face, and they're like, do it.
- [47:31]
Freddy
Do what? They're like your laugh. Like.
- [47:39]
Dan Patrick
Tyler in Utah. Hi, Tyler. What's on your mind today?
- [47:43]
Todd
Hey, Dan, thanks for calling me back. 5, 10, 200 just wanted to touch on your fall wardrobe as you're prepping.
- [47:53]
Freddy
For the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
- [47:56]
Todd
Maybe call Bob in Montana, get the Elvis stoop, bring that back. Tell them they don't really have to worry about it every race. I'm a photographer. I work with F1. Been taking pictures of the races for a long time. Every race kind of has its own style. Miami kind of feels like that Ole Miss tailgate Vegas, more frat, you know, style so they can kind of get away with maybe some jeans and a polo, things like that. Maybe pick a team, get some apparel.
- [48:25]
Dan Patrick
All right, well, thank you, Tyler, for the heads up. Yeah. I'm making plans to take the show to Vegas for the Formula one race, and I don't know if we'll be invited to any of these parties, but I want to make sure that we bring the proper clothes so we kind of, you know, we fit in. We're part of the scenery. We're part of the beautiful people that show up for Formula one. Brian joins us on the program. Good morning, Brian. What's on your mind today?
- [48:55]
Todd
A 510-170-DAN, just want to give you some historical context what you were saying about Michael Phelps, because you're exactly right. So in the 20s and 30s, the United States had thousands upon thousands of public swimming pools, some of the largest numbers in the developed world. And after segregation ended, a lot, lot of cities decided just to fill in their public pools as to not give in to the law. So you're exactly right. Generations missed out on knowing how to swim and having that opportunity to do so. So you are exactly right. I just want to give a quick shout out. Lost my Grandma last night. 92 years old. Shirley, huge Bucks fan her entire life. So special shout out to her. And even a special shout out as a lifelong Denver Broncos fan, I'll end it with this. Suck at Philip Rivers.
- [49:43]
Dan Patrick
All right. Go Broncos. Yeah, I think it's. I think it's a cool thing, though, the Ravens are doing and Michael Phelps is going to do and helping some of these players that they might not. They maybe they never learned to swim. And now you get that opportunity with the Ravens. They got a swimming pool. Michael Phelps says, hey, I'll teach anybody who wants to swim. And I think it's pretty cool. Allen in Charleston is back. Allen. Hopefully a better connection.
- [50:14]
Todd
Yeah. You hear me, Dan?
- [50:15]
Dan Patrick
Yes, I hear you now.

Todd
All right, let me just say to Todd that I, like I said, I'm a 77 year old man, and I agree with him.
- [50:23]
Dan Patrick
I think we got A bad connection. Alan, let him talk.
- [50:26]
Freddy
Let the man speak.
- [50:27]
CC Sabathia
He's got something to say.
- [50:29]
Dan Patrick
All right, go ahead, Alan.
- [50:32]
Todd
He's right there with Springsteen and the Beatles. I mean, even I remember in Vietnam and 69, you didn't hear the Beatles very much. It was the Stones and everybody else. So I don't get it, Todd. So hang in there, brother.
- [50:44]
Freddy
Thank you.
- [50:44]
Dan Patrick
Wow.
- [50:45]
Freddy
Said what needed to be said.
- [50:46]
Dan Patrick
Yes, he did. I just. I can't help you. I can't. I can't. And I can say that about a lot of things with you, but when it comes to music, I can't help you. Although Hall Notes and Billy Joel are great artists, and I enjoy both of those artist. But to just disregard Springsteen and the Beatles is just. It's ignorant. I said it. I said what happened. Yes, I did.
- [51:15]
Freddy
The problem is I don't. But you got that something. You got the ear for it.
- [51:19]
Dan Patrick
I don't have. You don't have the voice for it. Oh, wow.
- [51:24]
Freddy
Really?
- [51:24]
Dan Patrick
Yeah.
- [51:25]
Freddy
Sneaking in with four minutes left in the show.
- [51:28]
Dan Patrick
How's that feel? You're so whiny now. You are the whiner.
- [51:32]
CC Sabathia
Okay.
- [51:32]
Dan Patrick
Biggest whiner in the bunch, Todd. Not even close.
- [51:36]
Freddy
I wish I would have had Paul stout of the 13 and 16 record against the Broncos that Rivers had when he started. You probably didn't like my whining when I was beating up.
- [51:42]
Dan Patrick
Why wouldn't you look at the record of Philip Rivers, who you disliked because he whined when he faced the Broncos.
- [51:49]
Freddy
A big mistake. It was a total whiff by me because I would have had that ready to roll.
- [51:52]
CC Sabathia
When he said, well, we beat up on your Bronco.
- [51:54]
Freddy
13 and 16 isn't beating.
- [51:55]
Dan Patrick
The next time he announces retirement.
- [51:58]
Freddy
Then you.
- [51:59]
Dan Patrick
Then you hit him with the 1316 record.
- [52:01]
Freddy
I got it in my back pocket. Ready to roll.
- [52:03]
Dan Patrick
Scott in Tennessee. Hi, Scott.
- [52:06]
Todd
Hey, Mr. Patrick. Dan. And how y' all doing today?
- [52:09]
Dan Patrick
Great.
- [52:10]
Todd
Hey, hey. Family Feud. I actually watched it the other night when it was on, and the. The previous caller said three fingers. I mean, we hear that all the time, right? You get a concussion, you get knocked out. How many fingers am I holding up? Right. And so three would have been my answer, but y' all did great on the show. Enjoyed watching you on that and listening to you. Hey, Dan, I know that with The Pack Pat McAfee show was in Pittsburgh yesterday. I'm being a lifelong Steeler fan. You know, the fan base irritates me somewhat because the expectations is we want one playoff victory, and we're satisfied that's BS I want, I want a Super Bowl. We live in super bowl trophies, right? So yeah, you know that. That's my expectation every year. But talking about the old roster, we have 12 picks next year and everybody says, well, the Steelers are going to draft a quarterback next year. Well, hold, hold the Ford on that. I think we have Will Howard. I'm hearing great things about him. He's big Ben size and you know it's not 2.0. We don't know that. But why worry about the quarterback next year when you. I think we have one in house. We're older, we're going to get younger through the draft and I think Tomlin will get us through this. And my expectations, the minimal is ASC championship game, but we have the talent to compete with anybody.
- [53:20]
Dan Patrick
So I agree that you shouldn't be thinking about let's get a better than.500 record and let's get a playoff win. You're the Steelers. You should be thinking about championships. Yes, Marvin.
- [53:31]
CC Sabathia
The Steelers playoff. This is their longest playoff drought in the super bowl era.
- [53:34]
Dan Patrick
Yeah, like what's that?
- [53:37]
CC Sabathia

- [53:39]
Freddy

- [53:40]
Dan Patrick
Thank you, Marvin. This day in sports history Paul.

1932 Dan Enzo Ferrari retired from racing in 1950. He started a car company called Ferrari. That's right. Can't get that past anybody. 1981, a seven week baseball player strike.
- [53:56]
Dan Patrick
Came to the end. Yeah. There are seven players in baseball history to have hit two inside the park home runs in the same game. This guy did it in 1972. I never would have thought that he would have the speed to have two inside the park home runs. And he hit both of them off Bert Blevin. Dick Allen hit two inside the park home runs in the same game. Seven players in history have done that. On this date in 07, Kevin Garnett, traded from Minnesota to the Boston Celtics. Al Jefferson, Ryan Gomes, Gerald Green, Sebastian Telfair, Theo Ratliff and two first round draft picks. Who won that Dre?
- [54:49]
Freddy
Let's chop that up.
- [54:51]
Dan Patrick
I just had snot come out of my nose there. You okay? Yeah. Snot is running down his nose. Todd, what did I learn today?
