Sean McVeigh, Rams head coach, will stop by. We'll head to Hollywood. We'll talk to the co host of Entertainment Tonight, Michelle Turner and Kevin Frazier. After the Academy Awards wrapped up last night, I had not thought about Conan O'Brien for a long time. And next thing you know, it's Conan O'Brien hosting. And he did great job, you know, but we kind of got familiar with Jimmy Kimmel doing it, but Conan O'Brien did it last night. Adam Sandler had a little cameo there. And I don't know if they're really big surprises because I don't know if we got invested in the movies like we normally do. There'll be one or two where you go, man, which one's going to win? I don't know if you were going, which one's going to win Anora or what was the Covenant? Or what was the Ray Finds movie? I think it's Covenant. Is that what it is? Yeah. I don't know, but it's not like blockbusters. Didn't Saving Private Ryan get shut out or something years ago? Yeah, big blockbuster movies. That's when Shakespeare in Love won. Boy, did I make a mistake. I had two after parties to go to. I was taking my wife to the Academy Awards and I'm thinking, saving Private Ryan's got a lot of stars in it. It's gonna win. And so my wife goes, what about Shakespeare in Love? I go, it's not gonna win. Gwyneth Paltrow, Shakespeare in Love. And the winner is Shakespeare in Love. And we went to the after party. It was like going to a wake. I remember Tom Hanks came in with this Academy Award and that was, I mean, there was no joy in Mudville. Oh, my God. My wife goes, do you wanna, do you wanna just go home? We went back to our hotel. There was more, it was livelier in the hotel bar than it was when we went to the Saving Private Ryan after party. Yes, Paulie, do you think it's like the super bowl loser after party because they book it they do it no matter if they win or lose. Yeah, that's probably a good analogy there where they're. They were ready to win and there were a lot of big time celebrities in that movie and. But congratulations to Gwyneth Paltrow, Shakespeare in Love. It's a Premier League weekend on NBC and Peacock. The top four hopefuls, Aston Villa. It's not Ashton Villa. It's Aston Villa and Brentford. Then Sunday. Oh, it's Arsenal and they hate Manchester United. The Premier League weekend on NBC and streaming on Peacock. We'll get to more phone calls. Best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that you liked, you didn't like. 877-3-DP Show. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock, download the app if you haven't done so. And Sean McVeigh, Rams head coach, will join us in about 20 minutes from now. Kevin Frazier, Nichelle Turner, the popular co host of Entertainment Tonight. And it's a tradition unlike any other when they join us on very Little Sleep. Always great to see you. Especially you, Nichelle. I got it. I got a great. We've been trying to do comps with the Academy award winners and also sports guys. So here's one for you. Here's one for you. Okay. Macaulay Caulkin and Kieran Caulkin. Bobby Hurley, Danny Hurley. So, okay, so Macaulay Caulkin, a lot of success young. Bobby Hurley, a lot of success when he was younger. And then both brothers, Kieran and Danny Hurley come out of the shadows and now they're having their moment. I love that. Thank you. I, I would say I would go even further back. Dan and I would go. The Van Ardales brothers. Oh, boy. You know, I'll take you all the way back to Van Ardales and that's, that's where I would, I would even that one out. Wow. See? And I was about to say, like the Curry family are like the scars guards. Ooh, really? Yeah. Okay. You got Dell. Yeah, I think, I mean, you know, there's three of them. There's three of the curries. Like. Okay, okay, I can give you that. Yeah, you can give me that. I can give you that one. Okay, that's. That was quality. That was quality. Okay. What about Demi Moore, Matt Ryan? Oh, so close. That was, you know what, that, I would say that. Or you could say Russell Wilson or anybody from Seattle who came so close. But they won. They did win one. And so that's why Matt Ryan is a great squad. That's a very good one. Or like Charles Barkley even maybe, like, you know, did you ever really think Charles was gonna win that finals? When they were with the Suns, you really thought they were gonna win that final? I didn't do that to my body. Thought that they were gonna win that finals. I looked at it more like Demi will go down in the hall of Fame. She's had an incredible career, a long career. We know her, we talk about her. We're going to be celebrating her for a long time like we do Chuck, Dan Marino. There you go. Oh, there you go. Okay. What about Adrian Brody? What? 20 plus years in between wins. Yep. Is there a sports comp for somebody who won and then came back and won again? 20. Maybe, maybe. Jack Nicholas at 46, winning the Masters, that's got to be the closest day. I'm trying, I'm trying. But Jack had so much success before. Adrian has done those two things and that has been it. I mean, he, that role is his role. Yeah. And when he plays it and he kisses Halle Berry, he wins an Oscar. That is very true. That is very true. Kevin, what would you rather do? Kiss Halle Berry or win an Academy Award? Oh, come on. I mean, that's not even a stand. I mean, that's a no brainer. I mean, you could pick up, you could pick up an Academy Award down on Hollywood Boulevard. Right. I was thinking about this though, Dan, when I knew we were coming on to talk to you and I, because there's such this conversation about who's going to be the new face of the NBA and who would like to be. And I was thinking, who will be the new face of Hollywood? It has to be Timothee Chalamet. Right. So is he like the Anthony Edwards of Hollywood right now? Like the, okay, young talent? More like Shay. But you know, Anthony Edwards doesn't want to be the face of the NBA. Does Timothy Chalamet want to be the face of Hollywood? Do you believe that Anthony Edwards really doesn't want to be the face of the NBA? Timothy Chalamet's sga. You think he's a Shea Gilgamesh Alexander? Maybe in the way they dress. They dress alike. They have that flamboyance. They both say, I want to be the best. Okay. I'm going to be the best. Yeah. I mean, but, but I, I look at it like Anthony Edwards is that guy too. He'll come and tell you in your face, I'mma bust your behind. He's going to tell you. He told President Obama I'm the truth. Timothy Chalamet got on that Stage at the SAG Awards. I'm the truth. I'm chasing greatness. This is what I'm going to do. And so that kind of is why I make the correlation there. And I don't believe for a second that Anthony Edwards does not want to be the face of the NBA. Don't believe him for a second. Talking to Kevin Frazier, Nichelle Turner from Entertainment Tonight, I don't buy into it, but sometimes you hear this. Somebody's too young to win. Right? Was Timothee Chalamet too young to win? No, no, that wasn't the problem. Adrien Brody won for the Pianist when he was 29, so no. And Timothee Chalamet was also the lead. Think about this, Dan. The lead of two of the top 10 movies of the year, two of the best picture nominees. He was the lead of Dune 2, the lead of a complete unknown. The kid is talented. The kid, he's got some business with him. I think the problem is that Bob Dylan was invited to perform and also to appear or at least present. And Bob Dylan want to say a word about this movie. And I think it would have got. Helped get him over the hump. I thought it was the best performance of the year what Timothy Chalamet did. And he brought a new audience to Bob Dylan's music. I wish Bob Dylan would have supported him a little bit. And I think it could have helped, maybe push him over the hump a little bit. I think we're all better that Bob Dylan didn't perform. Kevin. I'm just. I'm just saying somebody. Somebody had to say it. And I'm going to say it. You said it. Although it would have made Timothy sound even better if they would have. Right. But I thought he was. I thought he was great. Here's the problem I had with the movie is Dylan has spent an entire career wearing a mask. We don't really know who he is. The movie didn't tell you who he was. It just chronicled a time that was really important in our history, certainly music. So you. Maybe that's why it was called a complete unknown. Yes, because you didn't know anything. You. And you still don't know who he is. But it feels like we know him because we've grown up with his music. But, you know, I. I saw Adrien Brody portray somebody, and I thought I knew more about the person he was portraying than I did Timothee Chalamet with Bob Dylan. But have you seen Adrian Brody play a similar role before? Yes. Yes, you have. And he is really, really good at that. But I thought it was, it was a great performance in a great movie, but it was something of a, a little bit of a redo. I mentioned that I went to Saving Private Ryan afterparty with my wife because I got, I got to pick between that or Shakespeare in Love. And I told my wife, I said, hun, Dan, Saving Private Ryan is going to be incred. It'll be. They, they're going to win all the awards. It's like last night, would you have taken the invitation to the Anora party or the Wicked party? Well, I still would take the invitation to the Wicked party or the Conclave party or. Yeah, I still would take the invitation to the Conclave party. Yeah. Really? The Conclave party. I love me some Stanley Tucci. I love me some Ralph Fines. I love me some John Lithgow. John Lithgow was the breakout of the Oscars last night. And, and look, you love that movie too. I did. I love the movie. We must say, look, let's be honest, we are two of the people who did not really think Anora would win. No. And Dan, you know, I will tell you, one of my producers had been saying to me for weeks, girl, open your eyes. People loving this movie. They're voting for this movie. There's this big swell for this movie. And I kept saying, okay, I liked it. I didn't love it. Give me Pretty Woman over Enora any day of the week. Yeah, if striptease meant Animal House, you'd have a north, not Animal House. You know, I mean, really, literally, I, I was. That's what surprised me. Well, Kevin and I both said it's the players club. That's like Ray McCoy. Better go get her. Yeah, better go get her, Oscar. Her and Ice Cube deserve some credit. Now, I, I thought it was. I, I loved it, but it, the, the, the pace of it made me exhausted. I mean, if it was just a frenetic pace, but you couldn't take your eyes off of her. Of like that. That's one of those. What? Of her? Of her, Kevin. She was in every frame of that movie. Every single frame of that movie. That was a true lead actress type of movie. And that actually thinking about it may have hurt Demi Moore a little bit because demi was in 50% of that movie. That's a great point. But I still thought this was her night and that Hollywood was going to love her too, and it was going to be her moment. And if you look the video of just as they're about to announce the winner. You see her heart beat and you're like, ye. Oh, God. Oh, God. And I know, Kevin, you've never had that feeling when you're waiting to get your name called for an award. I have. And, oh, my God, it's just, I. And you got to be nice. And, and she's on camera and she, she's been told by everybody, you're going to win, you're going to win. It's your night, you're dressed up. I mean, she's ready to go. It was heartbreaking for me. No, I felt so bad for her. I did, too. Because I did too. And think about this. She's 62. She's been in over 60 films. She's had almost a 50 year career in this business. Mikey Madison's 25. She's been in less than 10 movies. Yes. And she's just getting started. And I'm not one that says give those lifetime achievement Oscars or career Oscars, but I do think that this was material that Demi got her hands on, that she may not get her hands on material like this again. Yes. And this was the moment for her. Two people deserved Oscars last night. Demi Moore and Diane Warren. Oh, Diane Warren is 16 in. She's got to write a song about losing the Oscar. Like, let's just, let's just come out and spoof it and write a song about why do I keep losing this? She should be on Saturday Night Live this week on Saturday Night Live singing that song. All right, I'll leave you with this. Who had a great night without winning an Academy Award? Who would know, Brian? Okay, okay. Halle Berry. Yeah. Well, she has a great night. Comes back next year. Yes, I hope so. I thought he was great. I really did. I thought he was effortless. I thought he was great. The only bit that I don't think worked. I thought they should have just brought the first responders and firefighters out and gave them applause. I did. I don't think the bit landed when they were giving the jokes. I don't think it landed. I think Conan is back. If Dan, you don't want the gig, if you turn it down again, I'm voting for Dan. Yeah, I, I turned it down again. I'm the Diane Warren of turning down the Academy. Adam Sandler's there and you're not. What, what is happening in the world? Get a, get a cameo and you weren't next to him. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Let's get an ET Exclusive right now. Are you in? And what part do you have in Happy New Gilmore 2. I'm in Happy Gilmore 2, and I play a sportscaster. It's a stretch, but I, I'm kind of the Adrien Brody of Happy Gilmore 2. I love that. 20 years apart. And it's, it's what makes the movie. Well, I love that Adam Sandler also had on the Steph Currys last night. Oh, I know. Wearing those shoes. Yeah, he had those S dots on last night. Thank you guys again. Always great to see you. It's a tradition like no other. Thank you. I'm just glad to be invited to the party. I'm using the Dan Patrick invitation over Wicked and Nora Alden. Michelle, you are the party. You are the party. That's Nichelle Turner. Kevin Frazier, Entertainment Tonight co host. We'll take a break. When we come back, we'll talk to the Rams head coach, Sean McVay after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.

Make some noise for the greatest shooter of all time, Steph Curry. We went live from All Star Weekend for a new podcast called Go Greatest of their era. And we ranked our top five shooters from the 2000s. Peja 5, Dirk Ford. Peja is a leap. Okay, okay. I'm mad him. I left him off my list, but I still like my list. You won't believe who Steph left off his list. That's so tough. That's why we have these conversations. Yes, absolutely. Love it. Steph talked about what separates the truly elite NBA shooters. When you have a scouting report and you're on the list as not just a shooter, but we have specific rules for how we guard you, there's a fear factor that's associated with it. Anytime you're wide open like, you might as well just count that and get back on defense.

This is Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli, the five Families did not want us to shoot that picture. Leave the Gun Take the Cannoli is based on my co host Mark's best selling book of the same title. And on this show we call upon his years of research to help unpack the story behind the Godfather's birth. From start to finish, this is really the first interview I've done in bed. We sift through innumerable accounts. 35 pages isn't very much. Many of them conflicting. That's nonsense. There were 60 pages and try to get to the truth of what really happened. And they said we're finished. This is over. Not only is not going to work, you gotta get rid of those guys. This is that. Leave the Gun Take the Cannoli features new and archival interviews with Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, James Caan, Talia Shire and many others. Yes, that was a real horse's head.

Listen to the Puzzler every day on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. That's awful and I should have seen it coming. We'll sneak in a couple of phone calls. Best and Worst of the weekend877 3 DP shows. We wait for Sean McVeigh, the Rams head coach. Paulie, your best and worst of the weekend. We forgot about you. I will go best the weekend. Not just that St. John's basketball is good again, but Rick Patino brought out the white suit the other day and that means they're back. Back. You bring out the white suit. The game should have been called when he walked out with the white suit. There's really no chance of beating him with this white suit. Worst of the weekend Rob Manfred, Major League Baseball Commissioner to even consider Pete Rose for reinstatement. Here's why it's foe. It's fake. It's. You could have reinstated him many times over the years. There's nothing to reinstate. He can't work in baseball again. And there's nothing has changed with what he did or didn't do. It's a lifetime ban. To do it now is just fake platitudes or fake nice guy, Stick with what you did. But wouldn't you accrue more goodwill by doing it when Pete was still alive? Right. He didn't. If he does it now, it's because he knows Pete Rose cannot work in baseball again and he cannot give a speech at the hall of Fame. Well, that might be right there, that he's not gonna give a speech. Cause Pete giving a speech at Cooperstown would certainly be interesting, what he would say. But from what we're told, this is just a coincidence of baseball reconsidering, putting Pete reinstating Pete Rose, and Donald Trump saying that he's going to pardon Pete Rose, that it's separate things. You know, Pete went to prison for income tax evasion. And I think that's what now President Trump was also talking about. Pete should be in the hall of Fame as well. Yeah, Pauline. And the other thing is another reason Manfred shouldn't do it. Then you have to change the rule. The rule hasn't changed. It's a lifetime ban and doesn't go. Nothing changes because you pass away. I just think there's a lot more to the Pete Rose story. And there's probably. Let's just say I'm. I'm aware that there's a lot more to the Pete Rose story, but does it see the light of day? And that's. There's part of me that Hope said it doesn't, from what I've been told, but I'll. I'll. I'll leave it at that. I know it's purposely vague, but I think there was a lot more that was going on with Pete Rose than what baseball had to acknowledge. Let me put it that way. Seaton, what was the poll question for the final hour of the program? You know, we have a quick update on Would you rather have very small hands or very short arms? That has come back to a lot closer. Before, it was a runaway. Small hands. Now small hands is sitting at about 65%. The short arms movement is making a. A big comeback. Okay. A huge comeback. Okay. And then most promising team in the NFL right now, recency bias. But commanders run away with that one. Out of the Texans, Chargers and Broncos. Your other options, okay, from DraftKings over under touchdown passes for Jaden Daniels for next season after they just acquired Debo Samuel Paul, I'm going to start with you. Jaden Daniels over under passing touchdowns next season, 27 and a half. Todd 25 and a half. Seton 29 and one half. Marvin 24 and a half. 22 and a half. Dang, that's surprising. It's called motivation right there. Aren't they screaming for you to take the over there? He had 25 last year. Things that make you go 22 and a half passing touchdowns for Jaden Daniels. And once again, as I said in the first hour, we forget sometimes how you get to your win total. They went to the NFC title game, did we check? Did they win six or seven games in the last possession, the last minute of a game. And while I love seeing that certainly from a rookie quarterback, I don't want to be in that situation because the odds are you're not going to be getting that number of wins, you know, on a semi regular basis. Sean McVeigh, Eight Seasons, Rams Head coach and won a Super bowl champ. I got a story for you. This is 52 years ago. Yeah. My dad worked with your grandfather at the University of Dayton. Yeah. So your dad was the grandfather was the coach. My dad worked in computer science at the University of Dayton. He says to your grandfather, give me all of the information, give me all the tendencies of the opponent you're going to play, I'm going to put it into a computer and I'm going to give you this. So my father was one of the first people to ever do this. No kidding. Yeah. So he was helping your grandfather and I always wanted to tell you that story that he spoke very highly of your grandfather and the fact that he would listen to some guy in the computer science department at the University of Dayton giving all this information and my dad would say here's tendencies of third and eight, you know, 40 yard line or what they did in the, you know, inside the 20. So I always wanted to tell you that, you know, that that's, that's incredible. My grandpa was the most humble, just good man. He's a reason why that's an amazing story. I can't believe I didn't know that and that we haven't connected before to hear that. But he, he has afforded me opportunities, Dan, that I would never have gotten otherwise because of the way he treated people, the way that he always was so respectful, so humble, so willing to listen you know, I always talk about, you know, he was, he was, I'm going to listen, learn, then I can lead. And he was, he was the best. He was so steady. And man, I, I know this. I would never be in the position that I'm in if it wasn't for the, you know, McVeigh family name and legacy that he set. And you want to work as hard as you can to make them proud. But where we are 52, three, four, five years later with analytics, can you be too analytical from a head coaching perspective? You know, I think so. I think it's a portion of it. And I do think that part of the really good coaches, they use that as a portion to make decisions. And then there are certain things where the feel for the flow of the game, you know, the enemy has to say, there's some different things that you have to understand that are going on that maybe, okay, this is different than what we had planned. There's 22 moving parts. And so I think the best coaches use that as a part of their process in regards to the decision making. And then the best ones, I think they have a feel for the flow of the game where it's either confirming or, oh, this is a little bit different than we anticipated. And how do we show the flexibility and the fluidity to be able to adjust and adapt in game? Why didn't you go to the combine? I didn't go to the combine because really we've got such trust in our group of scouts to be able to do the vetting. And ultimately the tape is the biggest measure for what we evaluate. And so as coaches, our scouts are a little bit more ahead in terms of evaluating the game tape. They do such a great job with the vetting process using the numbers and similar to analytics. Dan, you know, this is a portion of the evaluation, but ultimately we're asking them to play football and so we want to be able to know the human being and then we ultimately want to be able to see what kind of football player they are and what kind of vision do we have to be able to bring them in our environment and atmosphere to help them be at their best. And so there's a lot of trust that we have in our scouts, but I do think that there can be some misleading feels that you can get in some of these 15 minute increments that aren't necessarily conducive for getting to know the total human being. And that's where there's that trust in terms of the vetting process that our scouts Go through. How close did it get to you losing Matthew Stafford or did. And it never really got close. I think the important thing, Dan, was at the start of this process, you know, and I've been pretty open about some of the communication and the clarity that was deserved. And I had some growing up to do when we ended up making the move to acquire Matthew for Jared Goff, you know, to acquire Matthew and move Jared Goff. And so wanted to have clear, open and honest dialogue throughout that process. But we never. The end goal in mind was always to be able to get him back. And I realized how much I wanted to get that solved when I've been sleeping so much better over the last couple nights than I was the previous couple weeks. Take me back to the game against the Eagles. I, I truly thought you guys were winning that game. Just felt like. But give me the play that you. You're running through your mind of second guessing yourself at the end of that game. Well, you know, it's funny because it could have worked out. So the third and two sequence, when we're on the 13 yard line with, you know, a minute 13 left, you know, we ended up having a little bit of a miscommunication up front. They were in a man coverage where they were doubling the coup up. We might add a chance if, if we ended up blocking it up right, to be able to hit Higby on a little whip route or maybe a second window on for cup from a slant route from the backside. We ended up going negative and that put us in a fourth down situation. But not that you did just hated the call, but you said, okay, if you had that over again, what would you do? Knowing that we had two downs, probably could have run it, moved down some more clock, you're really a little bit less risk averse in terms of what ended up occurring right there. So that sequence will stick. But ultimately, I was proud of our group, Dan. I really was. And I thought Matthew played excellent. Our guys competed. I thought we got better throughout the year. And obviously Philly's a tremendous team. They went on to convincingly do their thing in the next two games. But that one will sting, but I think it'll sting so much because of the growth. I don't know that I've ever been a part of a team that I felt like grew as much through so many challenging circumstances throughout the course of the year. And then obviously something way bigger than football. With the fires that we dealt with the previous couple weeks, we're Talking to Sean McVeigh the Rams head coach. We had a bet around here. If you've already had your morning pump in your morning lift. Todd, you said what, that Sean had already done his morning lift, yes or no? Yeah, I believe he has. All right. Seaton. Yeah, definitely. Yeah. Marvin. Yes. Yeah. Paulie. 8:30. No doubt. He got a lift in. Yeah, I'd say you're damn right I did. What are you benching now? Oh, I don't know what I'm benching. I just know that I, I get up, I actually go and work out with Andrew Whitworth. He's got a gym and so I'm not working, I'm not lifting the same as him. But he's keeping me in shape both mentally and physically. And so we do that at six in the morning four days a week. But I, I'm trying to think who. I spoke to recent Kevin O'Connell. And I said, you know, if we do a combine for coaches, he had, he put you up there at the top. You know, he thought you being competitive that, you know, going through all, you know, three cone drill. Of course, I don't know what you ran the. What Was your best 40 yard dash time? Well, I mean, this is, I think my dad had the handheld when I was in the four fives. You know, they say four, four, you know, high. Let's put it this way. If I ran on an fat at Indy, I'd be lucky to be in the four sixes at my best. Okay. But yeah, Dan Campbell would dominate you in the bench press, I'm guessing. I'm not, I'm not messing with Dan. There's no disputing that. Who takes credit for Puka Nakua? I would say this, I think, you know, I'll tell you who was a huge fan of his. Obviously Les was a huge fan. James Gladstone was a big fan of him before anybody I know that. I can Remember when Mike LaFleur and I were really watching him and watching some of the different things that we like to evaluate in terms of aggressive hands. Really, we were looking for somebody that brought the element of toughness, competitiveness. Explain, explain aggressive hands. What's aggressive hands mean? I think one of the best ways that you can evaluate aggressive hands, where you're stepping to the football when somebody's running in breaking routes, do they stay flat? Are they friendly? Are they coming back on negative angles? Are they staying grounded through the catch? Are they able to catch it away from their frame and then immediately get up the field? I think that's where you see some of these special players that have those aggressive hands to go attack the football as opposed to when you'll see guys running in, breaking routes, they might drift up the field because they're not as confident to step back to it. That was one of our favorite things about Puka, the competitive toughness at byu. He was catching a lot of bubbles and running jet sweeps. And so a lot of the run after the catch was something that was enticing. And, you know, if you said, did you think he'd be this good? We had a vision, we thought he would be good, but if he was going to, if we knew he was going to be this good, we'd be silly to say we were going to wait till the fifth round to take him. What does the Cooper cup situation hinge on? Yeah, honestly, you know, he's been so instrumental to our group for the eight years. You know, his rookie year coincides with my first year. Dan, this guy means a whole lot to me. He's been instrumental in setting the culture, establishing a legacy that is already cemented as one of the all time Rams think the hard part is, is you have to be able to make decisions where you say, all right, where are we going? What does it look like for the collective? And how are you putting this puzzle again year in? How are you putting this puzzle together year in and year out? And so we're in the midst of finding a trade partner for him. And if we're not able to do that, then we'll see what the next steps are. But that's kind of the process that we're in. Working with himself and Ryan Toner to find a trade partner. How has fatherhood impacted your coaching? It's given me a purpose and a perspective. You know, some of the things I used to get worked up about Dan, it's just, you know, things you're just reminded of who you want to be when you see that little boy smile at you, how you want to treat his mother, how you want to act, interact and respond the right way to show him what a real man is. I've said this before. I can remember when went through some challenging times in the 22 season and we were 5 and 12, man, it really tested a lot of the things that revealed a lot of insecurities that I had. And you're thinking about walking away from coaching. And the one thing that I think always resonates with me is that I would have never been able to look at my son and say, hey, do as I say, not as I did when Adversity hits. And so you talk about making you better in every form of your life. And, man, just bringing a joy and a perspective. He doesn't care about those bad play calls that I make on Sundays. He's just happy to see dad. Dad, I said that, to wit and Fitz when I went on their podcast, and Fitz said, yeah, not yet. Once he's old enough, he'll be criticizing you for those calls. Can you change a diaper in the time of a play clock? You know what? I think I can. I got to make sure I get the wipes ready if this is a number two, though. But if this is, this is a number one, I can do that pretty efficiently. I might. I think I can do that out of a clock stoppage with 25 seconds. Good to talk to you. Congrats on last season, and nice to be able to connect with you. Yeah, absolutely. Appreciate you having me on, dan. That's Sean McVeigh. Eight seasons as the Rams head coach. And I thought they were going to win that game against Philadelphia. You know, they score a touchdown. But, you know, once again, here's a guy who coached Aaron Donald. I got to make sure I know where Jalen Carter is. And Jalen Carter, he disrupted that quickly. And then all of a sudden, that changed the next play call. Yeah, Paul, if you were listening to that on radio, Coach McVeigh, when you told him about his grandfather and your father, his face was transfixed. He. He was just loved hearing about his grandfather back in the day. I wanted to tell him that story because my father was one of the first to do analytics, if you want to call it. He was just trying to help the University of Dayton football team. And that fact that Sean's grandfather was the head coach. And my dad thought, you can put information in the computer, spit it out, and give you tendencies of what the opposition is going to do. And I just remember those computers were huge. They were the size of your desk when you were in. In grade school. I mean, it's just. It was larger than that. And he kept telling us, and this is 1969, 1970. And he said, this is the future. And I remember my family, all six of us were like, we're not part of the future if that's the future. But we didn't see. We saw the computer, the actual computer. We didn't see what the computer could do. But my father thought, you know, you can get that information, put it in, and, you know, he would get all the plays from, you know, the opponent. And I remember they were going to play Butler, it felt like, and he got all of their, their plays that they called that year and when they called them, what was the down in distance and he was trying to help. Sean McVeigh's grandfather, John McVeigh, legendary coach, went on to coach the New York Giants. But I don't know how much it helped, but I know that he thought that there was something there. That's a long, long, long, long time ago. Take a break. Last call for phone calls. What we learn what's in store tomorrow. Fritzi, great job with the guest list today. Peter Schrager, certainly with Entertainment Tonight, folks, and Sean McVeigh. We'll take a break. We're back after this. Be sure to catch the live edition of the Dan Patrick show, weekdays at 9am Eastern, 6am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. Make some noise for the greatest shooter of all time, Steph Curry. We went live from All Star Weekend for a new podcast called Go Greatest of Their Era and we ranked our top five shooters from the 2000s. Peja 5 Dirk Ford. Peja is a little. Okay, okay. I'm mad him. I left him off my list, but I still like my list. You won't believe who Steph left off his list. That's so tough. That's why we have these conversations. Yes, absolutely. Love it. Steph talked about what separates the truly elite NBA shooters. When you have a scouting report and you're on the list as not just a shooter, but we have specific rules for how we guard you. There's a fear factor that's associated with anytime you're wide open. Like, you might as well just count that and get back on defense.

The five families did not want us to shoot that picture. Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli is based on my co host Mark's best selling book of the same title. And on this show we call upon his years of research to help unpack the story behind the Godfather's birth. From start to finish, this is really the first interview I've done in bed. We sift through innumerable accounts. 35 pages isn't very much, many of them conflicting. That's nonsense. There were 60 pages. And try to get to the truth of what really happened. And they said we're finished, this is over. Not only is not going to work, you gotta get rid of those guys. It's just that Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli features new and archival interviews with Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Evans, James Caan, Talia Shire and many others.

Listen to the Puzzler every day on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. That's awful and I should have seen it coming. Last call for phone calls. What we learn what's in store for tomorrow. LeBron James had 17 points last night. I bring this up because if you have the combined regular season and postseason, LeBron James has now scored 4,999 career points. I don't know who is like, who's the second highest scoring active player? Active, active. Kevin Durant, all time, including everything regular and Postseason is at 35, 191. I don't think he's going to catch LeBron. 15,000. I know. Yes, Todd. And how confident are we in those tabulations? I don't want to do the Debbie Downer thing, but for all we know, he passed 50,000 a few games ago. Do they really have it exact to the 4999? I know we have computers and things. Wait, this isn't like. I just wonder sometimes, like, like people have jobs maybe 12 points away. He may have broken it two weeks ago. He might be at 50,000. No, no, no, no. If this was ESPN and they were going to celebrate the 50,000th sports center, it would always be on a Sunday night. Every anniversary show I did, it'd be like, oh, it just happened to be on a Sunday night. The 25,000 Sports Center. Oh, it's on a Sunday night. Go figure. This day in sports history, all of that coming up. Sean in Oregon. Sean, thanks for holding. Best and worst of the weekend. Thanks for taking my call, Dan. I got to go with the NFL combine for being the worst of the weekend. You know, I just think this is, like, way overrated. When I listen to people talk about hand size, I think, well, this is the football bigger in the NFL than it is in college. You know, if they can hold on to the football in college, they should be able to do that, you know, and, you know, I'd like to see him, you know, speed. When you talk about fast guys, it's nice having a fast guy on your team. But when is the fastest guy in the combine been the top receiver? You know, football is your toughness and how you react after catches and I'd rather see him throw like grease footballs to these guys and see if they can catch them. I'm with you. I'm with you. This is filler, but it's the NFL and what else are you going to watch? And you may know some of these names and other ones you're being introduced to, but I agree. I want somebody who's quick, not fast. The NFL is getting from point A to point B. Getting off the line of scrimmage, hitting the hole. You're a pulling guard. You get from point A to point B. I want to know what you do in the first 10 yards, not the next 30 yards. Hey, did you see the guy who weighs 350 pounds? He ran a 4, 9, 40. Great. How many times will that guy be running 40 yards? Yes, Marvin. I'm glad nobody fell for that with John Ross. Yeah, John Ross, he was one of the fastest guys in the world. The Bengals fell for that when they drafted him. Was it top 10 pick out of Washington? Yes. Dang. Brian in Cincinnati. Hey, Brian, thanks for holding. What do you have? Hey, Dan, thanks for calling me. Drew Breeze, five ten and a half, hard 195. I wanted to say worst of the weekend, Xavier Musketeers fans, they're the worst people in the world. I went to the Xavier game just because we got free tickets and I wore my UC stuff because I love University of Cincinnati and I got roughed up. Even in the bathroom while I was waiting in line, people were sitting there trying to with me about the fact that I'm wearing. Easy, easy, easy, easy. You know, you're on a roll there. Not happy about it. I'll tell you. Yeah, yeah. Not happy. It's a shame that it's. It's been to that point. It didn't get to that point. It is at that point where if you're going to an away game, you can't fly your colors. You just can't. Certain places you cannot, unfortunately. Alex in Utah. Hi, Alex. What's on your mind? Hey, how's it going, guys? So I probably just had my worst of the weekend just about an hour ago. For years I've been laughing alongside you guys about Marvin's hand size, but I finally busted out the tape measure and Marvin, if you could go ahead and send me the information once you get that about the hand stretching guy. Anyway, so I. So I was reflecting this weekend about the NBA, you know, with. Oh, I guess the allegations about the media is the reason that ratings are down. But I was coaching some I was coaching 14 year olds the last couple months and, you know, it was, it was, there were friendly games and they were jacking up threes, not paying a lot of defense. But then in the last minute or so of each of these games, if it was closed, then the defense started ramping up, they started doing more cuts and more screens and the game was a lot funner in the last minutes. And I realized, like, if you're jacking up threes and not playing defense, I think that's a symptom that you just don't care about the game. And I think that that's what's going on in the regular season. It, I mean, it's hard to care when 10 teams from each conference are making the playoffs. So that's my 10 cents, my 2 cents. So, yeah, thanks for, thanks for the show today and look forward to hearing more from you guys the rest of the week. Thank you, Alex. Thank you. Yeah, you can be critical of something, but that doesn't mean you don't like it. And I do talk about positives. Well, look, I, I don't need to defend myself. Other people, their approach, you know, they may have alternative motives there. I just want the games to be better and if we can tweak them, if we see an opportunity to do something different, then great. Is the three point shot here to stay? Yes, it is. Yes, it is. That's the game. Nothing I can do about it. Hopefully there's other things that make the game continue to make the game enjoyable because there's a lot of great players, a lot of great talent there. This day in Sports History. Paulie. 1959. Dan. The San Francisco Giants named their new stadium Candlestick Park. I still call it that because I can't keep track of the different sponsors. It was always a phone company. Yes. Hack Bell, Pac Bell. Yeah. Also on this date. I love this one. 1982, Wayne Gretzky of the Oilers scored goal number 76, 77, 78 and 79. He scored four goals in a game eight different times in his career. He scored five goals in a game four different times. Overrated, silly. How about this one? 1983, Terry Bradshaw admitted to a hospital in Shreveport, Louisiana for surgery to repair his throwing elbow. And he went in under the alias Thomas Brady. You can't make that up. Thomas Brady. Let me see. Mike Tyson. 1987, I was at this fight. Unanimous decision over James Bone, Crusher Smith, Caitlin Clark, on this date, 2024, surpassed Pete Maravich to become the NCAA Division 1 All Time Career scoring Leader Stephanie in Ohio. Hi, Steph. What can I do for you? Yeah, hi, Steph. Hi. First time, long time. Five two and nobody's business. Hey, I wanted to give you a best and worst of the weekend. The best by far. The NHL stadium game. It was held at Ohio Stadium at the Shoe on Saturday night. 94,000. It was the Blue Jackets winning five three over Detroit. Really cold. They honored Johnny Goudreau. Yeah, it was a great, great game. Yeah, photos were great. But that stadium rivalry there with Ohio State and Michigan. So you get Columbus against Detroit, though. I like it. You know, those are fun. A lot of people showing up. Let's go around the room. What we learned on this Monday program. Todd, what'd you learn today? Even though many of us saw very few or none of the Oscar nominated films, we somehow think we know who deserved to win and who got snubbed. Seaton, what did you learn today? Your father and Sean McVeigh's grandfather collabed back in the day. Yes, they did. Back at the University of Dayton back in late 60s, early 70s. Marvin, what did you learn today? If you're in a suit, don't make eye contact with you? No, no, I'm all business. Paul, what'd you learn today? We're on Oscar watch from Macaulay Culkin. Todd, what did I learn today? For those unaware, USC's Juju Watkins is the real deal. A great two way player, just different than everyone else out there. Yeah, and that's not a shock. That's not headline worthy or a hot take. She could turn out to be the best player I ever saw. Not impactful like Caitlin Clark. There's a big difference in that. But she does not have a weakness.
