You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. We say good morning if you're watching on Peacock, that is our streaming partner. Download the app if you haven't done so and you're able to see the faces that you hear each morning. Fox Sports Radio, iHeartradio as well. We say good morning to our radio affiliates. John Smoltz, he will be on the call for Fox. It's baseball. We got the Mariners, Blue Jays, Dodgers, Brewers. That'll be coming up later today. And you have two football games. Bills, Falcons, Bears, Commanders. Bears getting five and a half and the Falcons are getting four and a half at home against the Buffalo Bills. When's the last time the Falcons and the Bills played a game? Just seems so random. That's a weird combo. It is. Falcons, Bills are playing. Yeah. And then we're going to revisit the which quarterback the Bears should have taken with Jaden Daniels and Caleb Williams coming up tonight. I'm sure that that will be the pregame festivities as they revisit that. Yes, Paul. The Bills and Falcons have played 13 times, so Bill's winning six, Falcons winning seven. When's the last time they played? 20, 22. Oh, okay. Does seem random, though. It does. And, and since we've been doing this, they played five times in the past 20 years. Hey, all right, all right. So you got baseball tonight. You got football tonight, a double header. And I'm looking forward to getting the college football rankings now because now it starts to get real now kind of where you are now. You can establish your footing here when it comes to the playoffs. Indiana. I mean, people might make a case for Indiana that they're the second best team in college football. It'll be Ohio State and Miami. But Indiana, Indiana, that was impressive. Has anybody had a better win than Indiana had at Oregon, I don't think so. But that was impressive. I mean Ohio State was favored over Texas, weren't they in that opener? I think a slight favorite. And, and they were home for that game. Texas handled ou. That was not a good watch. I mean I watched it. And John Matier, he wanted to be back after breaking his hand. He probably shouldn't have been back. Bama squeaks by Missouri and Penn State fires James Franklin. There'll be a lot of, a lot of coaches to be interested in Penn State rightfully so. I mean that setting resources, the talent that they've had there. And James Franklin will get another job. But that one, that was one of those where I wasn't surprised. But there's still that shocked element of oh my God, they did fire him. But when you're 20 point favorites and you lose back to back games and you don't have history on your side of winning big games, but you just gave him an extension and now 49 million, that's. It just felt like it was too much money to fire him. And I think those are the scenarios that we're going to be seeing more of because these coaches want 10 year contracts. But you know, that golden parachute, I mean that what's better than gold? I mean that that was, that that's a great parachute to have. There was so much gold in his golden parachute. It brought him all the way to the ground and he got fired. But $49 million, I we asked the poll question, did he have a bad weekend? It was like 60% of the audience said that he did have a bad weekend. Seaton. Yeah, that's right. Now it's at 63% of the audience. Yes, it's a bad week. Yeah. Sunday night it'll be Bijan Robinson and the Falcons taking on Christian McCaffrey in the Niners prime time Sunday, 7 Eastern on NBC. And Peacock, I don't know, you're gonna have to dress that one up a little more than. Let me see if I can sell that. Sunday night, who would have thought they would be going head to head? But you asked for it. You got it. Bijan Robinson and the Falcons take on Christian McCaffrey in the Niners primetime Sunday 7 Eastern on NBC. And Peacock. Yes, Todd. Former division rivals back in the day. Yeah, well, nobody remembers that. But you do. Thank you, Todd. Yet I also was wondering about the over saturation of the NFL and Thursday. And then you have Sunday morning, Sunday night and then you got two games on Monday night and then we're going to have Thursday And I think then we repeat it again coming up next week. And I don't know if the numbers, how they bear out, you know, ratings, if people are watching. I always thought Thursday night games should have been standalone holiday games, like Thanksgiving on a Thursday. You know, something along those lines. Not every Thursday. But there's so much money out there. These owners aren't going to turn down this kind of money. They'd be crazy to. They're like, no, we'll keep giving them what they want. Oh, how about another game here? How about we have games outside the United States? Yeah, we'll do that as well. So you're just adding a couple more billion billions of dollars to the bottom line because you got Thursday night, you'll get an 18th game. You're going to have all of these games around the globe. They're not turning down money for the betterment of the product. Yes, Marvin. Yeah. At the end of the regular season, when college football is kind of on his hiatus between bowl games, when there's NFL games on Saturdays, they're like, oh, let's go. Yeah. They take that whole weekend, if they could. Yeah. I hope that they stay away from Friday and college football because I, I still want high school football to have a standalone. But we've seen more games with college football. The NFL can't do it. I think legally they can't play on Friday night, but there's nothing like Friday night high school football. Yeah. Paulie. I will say the Sunday morning games in Europe that start at 9:30 eastern and 6:30 on the west coast, they're getting a little less special and more frustrating. Sunday morning is kind of when you ease into your football day and do other things. You got. You got 10 hours. If you start at 1:00 Eastern, those international games are getting a little less special. Yeah. Too often. Yeah. And they're rarely like shootouts where it's wild and it's unbelievable. It just feels like they're slugging it out. It's a slog. Yes. Marvin. Sorry, jets fans. So I'm watching it early in the morning and my wife goes, oh, who's playing? Like, wait. She goes, are they playing live? Yeah, Ill. You gotta watch the jets live. And it was. It was a horrible game. She was so disgusted. And I immediately thought, how many games end 13 to 11 in NFL history? Because it was like, what a mess. And then you get no offense from the Jets. Justin Fields gets sacked nine times. It was bad. Yes. Broncos apologist. It looked like both teams slept in and they forgot the time zone of what time it was. And all of a sudden they got a wake up call. Get on the bus. We got to get to the game. It's starting. Oh, my God. Where's my helmet? Yes, Paulie, I have three games in NFL history that finished 13:11. Lions, Eagles in 86. Broncos over the Seahawks or Broncos losing to the Seahawks in 83. Yeah. 13 to 11. That's an odd one. Literally, it's an odd one. 11 and 13. Stay with me. Prime numbers, too. 11, 11, 11. And we were looking for a person's name there. By the way, the passhold T shirts, they sold out. I told you that. You only had a couple of days to get them. But we sold those out. We'll let you know. Next batch of T shirts available. Pass all day. Well, I'm gonna guess some people in South Bend showing up on Thursday or Friday might have that T shirt on. That's maybe very likely. And you did. You know, that whole conversation changed me of. I'm so aware somebody can be 20 yards behind me and I'm in the left lane. I'll get in the middle lane. Like, I'm aware of it far more than. And I'm not one of those. I'm staying here. And that's it. It happened to me one time where I was going probably nine miles over the speed limit, and there was a car that was coming up on me, and I thought, I'm going nine miles over, and I didn't get over. And he walked or he drove by, and he sticks his hand out of the window. Window all the way down. So his finger was on the door, and he flipped me off, and I went, okay, you know what? I'm okay with that. It wasn't a honk or anything. It was just a. All right, I'm just gonna have. You know, it wasn't horns down. It was bird down. And he flipped me off, and I went, all right, yeah, I deserve that. Yes, Todd, I don't think you deserve that. Yeah, I did. Now, you shouldn't. The reason why he got all upset is because he probably just went right back into the left lane in front of you and kept going 20 miles an hour past the speed limit. The left lane he did. Right. It was because it wasn't about passing to get into any other lane. He just wants to stay in the left lane and go 90 miles an hour until he gets to his destination. That was my point from the beginning. You weren't blocking anybody. He was being a jerk riding on top of you. Almost creating an accident. No, no, no. We're not doing this. You know what? Passhold T shirts are going to be available. Todd's point from the beginning of that has changed about 37 times. Your point. You had. Remember, you had little old ladies in the right lane and you. You. You. You offered up different vantage points of your opinion on that. Todd, in fairness to the topic, you kept moving the goalpost because you weren't winning that argument. Well, I'll try to win that argument, and then I'll try to win that argument. Mike in Wisconsin. Hi, Mike. What's on your mind? Hey, what up, dp? That's the worst. The best. Clearly the brewers thought they were going to crap the bed and not beat the Cubs, but the worst is absolutely the Wisconsin Badgers football program. Wow. Luke Fickle needs to go the same way as James Franklin. 37 Nothing against a mediocre Iowa team at home on homecoming. He just needs to go away. And you got Ohio State next week, don't you? Oh, that's going to be 57 and up. Oh, boy. Luke Fickle. Wasn't he rumored to be up for the Ohio State job prior to Ryan Day when he was at Cincinnati? Yeah, Paulie. Yeah. The timing didn't work out, so he left Cincinnati to go to Wisconsin, which seemed like a great hire for Wisconsin. It was lauded. Yeah. Because Wisconsin would always be there. Every year it was like Utah football. They were just there. And they were good and competitive. Dangerous. Yeah. Paulie, do you want to play? Guess that line. Ohio State versus Wisconsin in Wisconsin. Guess that line. I'm gonna say 31 one and a half. Oh, it's a little friendlier. It's 27 and a half. Oh, okay. Over. Under is 41 and a half. Oh. Which means one team's doing most of the scoring. Yeah. So that might be 31 10. That's fair. All right. Over. Under tonight. Exactly the same for both games. 49 and a half. I'll sign up for that. Get a little. Get a little action in there. That'll be good. 49 and a half. Bears getting five and a half and the Bills giving four and a half against the Falcons. Dan in Minnesota. Hi, Dan. What's on your mind today? Hi, Dan. First time, long time. 58160. All right. I2 Best of the weekends. I have absolutely no worst. My first best is growing up in Iowa. The Hawkeyes beat down of the Badgers. Was great to see. My second best of the week is I was able to fulfill a 10 year promise to my daughter took her to see Paul McCartney at Coors Field in Denver over the weekend. And for an 83 year old guy to go out and put on the show he did for three hours was amazing to see. Awesome. I haven't seen McCartney. I do. I don't think I've had the opportunity where, you know, I've been in the same place where he's been, but at 83, still out there and performing. And Ringo Starr and his Band of All Stars, they. They still tour, they still travel. That's good. I mean, Willie Nelson's still doing it, Bob Dylan's still doing it. Trying to think if there's anybody else. Springsteen, Billy Joel. But they're considered young compared to McCartney. And, and Willie and Dylan. Yes. Paulie, do the Rolling Stones still tour or occasional. They do, yeah. The who just wrapped up their careers. I think they played their last one in Vegas, had a residency there, but I think the Stones are still playing. I don't know if anybody, you know, a lot of times you, you lose band members, guys, you know, Ringo's 85, McCartney's 83. But I'm trying to. And Dylan. How old is Bob Dylan? I got him 87. 84. 84. That's a shame that he can't sing. Like, you just hear his voice. Then it shot. It was good. At one point we're saying it was. Make sure you're on record of saying that Dylan, Bob Dylan had a great melodic, great sound. Yeah. His, his lyrics. Come on. How does it feel when he passes away? You're going to feel terrible. I will in that voice say, sorry to hear. I just can't get into that. I hope he lives till he's 130. But you don't. You can't get into Springsteen either. No. Because it's just. All right, all right. Come on now. Yes. Seaton. If we had to say one of these artists or bands was not good. Not good. Yes. Or maybe there's a better way to phrase this. We can put Bob Dylan on there for Todd. Okay, I'm gonna throw the who on there. Wow. Just because. Can't convince you that's me. Can't. As I get older there. I'm more interested in some of their songs. How about the greatest band that you don't like? The greatest band you don't like. All right. Oh, considered great, respected, successful, whatever. Yeah. So Dylan. That's a better way to say Springsteen. The who, Stones. Yeah. Pulling. It's because of when I was born. I never enjoyed any of Pink Floyd's music based mostly I think of my age, and I didn't get them. All right, Todd, the greatest. Who you don't like. I'm gonna have to give it to the Beatles. Okay. There's a couple songs I like, but for the most part, I think they're horrifically overrated. Horrifically. Yeah. I'm gonna. I'm all in. I'm gonna be all in on it. I'm not gonna. I'm gonna sugarcoat it. There was something new and from across the pond there. Oh, my God. Who are these guys with the hairdos? Well, you weren't. You weren't around at that time. Maybe I would appreciate it more if that was like I was a teenager and you would have talked about. It'd be like One Direction coming over and then not changing. The Beatles evolved. The Beatles changed music. They. They change music more than any other artist in history. Different things that they used, sounds, instruments, everything. And they weren't a big touring band either. All right, Seaton, the best. That. Best band that you don't like. Well, I mean, I'm. I'm gonna stick with the who. Okay. Because that's just. I like the Rolling. I like Rolling Stones. I like Beatles. I like Pink Floyd. I like Bob Dylan. I like Bruce Springsteen. Oh, well, I could throw in Grateful Dead. I don't like the Grateful Dead. I never got the Grateful Dead. No, I did. I tried. I just didn't get them. And it was more than just going to see a band. It was kind of a movement there, a thing, a scene. Marvin, best band that you don't like. Oh, this is tough. Jimi Hendrix. Okay. Interesting. I personally, I think he's a great guitar player, but I didn't get it. I'm with you. The Doors and Hendrix. I'm like, okay, all right. Because Hendrix was a great guitar player. I didn't think, you know, great singer. Morrison was a great front man. Yes. Heavy, classic rock. I mean, all of these artists are from one era. Yeah, my era. Overrated. Shot. A shot. You know what? And actually what we should take from this is the big winners are Rolling Stones. Nobody says they're over. Stop me up. And you know, he's dating a 28 year old. Ballet or ballerina. Good friend. Yeah. What's Pacino and De Niro and, you know, Mick. All these guys in their 80s trying to hold on. Yes. Having kids, too. Oh, I know why. That's. That's not good. All right, let me take a break. John Smoltz set to join us. We'll preview the baseball tonight. We're back after this on the Dan Patrick Show.

Hey sis, what if I could promise you you never had to listen to a condescending finance bro tell you how to manage your money again? Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part when you pay down those credit cards. If you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards, you may just recreate the same problem. A year from now when you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan starting with your local credit union. Shopping around online looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt and it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact it may get even worse. For more judgment free money advice, listen to Brown ambition on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

I was going to schools to try to teach kids these skills and I get eye rolling from teachers or I get students who would be like, it's easier to punch someone in the face. When you think about emotion regulation, like, you're not going to choose an adaptive strategy which is more effortful to use unless you think there's a good outcome as a result of it, if it's going to be beneficial to you. Because it's easy to just say, like, go blank yourself, right? It's easy, it's easy to just drink the extra beer. It's easy to ignore, to suppress seeing a colleague who's bothering you and just like walk the other way. Avoidance is easier. Ignoring is easier. Denial is easier. Drinking is easier. Yelling, screaming is easy. Complex problem solving, meditating, you know, takes effort. Listen to the psychology podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. John Smoltz, hall of Famer baseball on fox, lead analyst and he was on the call with Joe Davis for the alds Blue Jays Yankees in the booth for the Mariners and Jays got underway last night. First pitch tonight, game two from Toronto at I think 503 Eastern on Fox. Before I get to the baseball, we were just talking about respected bands, great bands that you don't like. And Seaton came up with the who. Fritzi doesn't like Springsteen or Dylan and the Beatles. Marvin, who was your pick? Jimi Hendrix, Paulie, Pink Floyd. Pink Floyd. What about you, John? Respected band that you don't like? You know, I'm not much of a, I'm not much a follower of that of bands. You know, I grew up as, you know, playing the accordion. Take it or leave it. Weird Al Yankovic, you know, I mean he's would make fun of the accordion. He was brilliant actually. But I don't know. I hear a lot of people talk about black Eyed Peas, but I'm not, I'm not a good guy to, to really ask when it comes to bands, I don't follow anybody. Be honest. When's the last time you played the accordion? I tried to play it at my daughter's wedding in May. I was gonna we have a famous chicken dance song that we play ever after every wedding. My daughter did a great job in renting me. She found the accordion. You can't find them anymore and the key was stuck so you couldn't play it. So it either saved me or. But that would have been the last time. It's been a Long time. Is that the. That's the song we, we kind of grew up on, actually. All right, let's talk baseball here. Now, you've seen Seattle and the, and the Blue Jay. I was surprised Seattle won that game considering 15 innings going cross country, travel issues and a Toronto team that seemed to be on fire from what happened with the Yankees. What was the big difference, do you think, last night? Well, the big difference was Toronto's offense didn't get on on base a lot. And other than the first inning, Bryce Miller had one of the greatest games I think you'll ever see a young man pitch given the circumstances. Look, this is a hard team to face and especially at home, we saw the Yankees get absolutely obliterated on great pitching by the Yankees. Just made it look like they'd never pitched before. So I was a little bit surprised that Seattle was able to hang in there on adrenaline alone. I've been part of those long 18 inning game, come back, try to play, you know, a day and a half later. It takes its toll. But as I said on the telecast, if they can hang in there, adrenaline gets you through the rest of that game. And Bryce Miller was a batter or two away from this being an ugly game. And it turned into an epic game because he had first pitch, home run, then runners on first and second, one out. And that's when the crowd in Toronto and their offense gets going and they never got another run. I don't think anyone could have predicted that. When do you know to take out a pitcher? If it's just mathematically with, with pitches or. I mean, how much is gut feeling talking to the catcher, you know, getting a sense of something more than just the analytics say I gotta pull you. Yeah. I think the biggest thing that gets overlooked is the swings the hitters are putting on that pitcher. I don't think they look at it as a direct response. They'll look at analytic spin or velocity or just basically say third time through. I'm not even going to let them get there. And I think the managers that in this postseason have let their player have a mat, have a moment is winning the games, meaning pitchers that are going into the eighth inning are winning pitchers that get taken out by fourth or fifth inning. You start rolling the dice and I'll be honest, the Seattle Mariners are here because the greatest pitcher of our generation was only able to go six innings. If he goes seven innings, I don't think you can make an argument that Seattle would be here. So they benefited from all that work that they put in to foul off pitches and get his pitch count up. I was watching that game. I was shocked. But based on the year, he's never pitched over 105 pitches. So Seattle is a benefactor from what Toronto does very well and make your pitch count go way up. The Dodgers have been relying on their starters, but it feels like they have to because of that bullpen. Absolutely. It's a total flip of the script. Last year they had no starters that they could count on, so they relied on their bullpens guys and they used them and, and just really all of them got hurt. And now they've established such a depth that is working in their favor that you're seeing guys like Blake Snell first time ever, ever getting into seventh inning in a postseason game. I mean, that to me is like, shouldn't be a narrative, but it is. And I think now you're seeing again pitchers. At one point it was 12 and 1. The pitcher that went longer than the other pitcher, they won the game. I know lately it's been a couple losses, but I think teams are going to have to trust their starters and know that they are having a moment and don't look. I'll give you 162 analytical reasoning and philosophy. I'll give it to you 162. It doesn't apply in a best of five and a best of seven. It doesn't. It's just. It doesn't work that way. And when you don't adhere, when you don't deviate, you're really running the risk of that 162 model not working in a best of seven. Because you never know if that one guy is going to be on that's. That exceeds what he would do in the regular season if you'd never give him that moment. I think you mess up. What were your thoughts on Dave Roberts leaving Clayton Kershaw in or having him come back for that next inning? Yeah, I mean, I saw it from afar. I thought that, you know, Clayton Kershaw, what a moment. I just can't even imagine the adrenaline and the rush that he was going through knowing his career is over and he's had a couple of those weird innings in postseason in his history. It's unique. It really is hard to explain, but I think for. For Dave Roberts and everything that he believes and trust that his team and that was a 20 situation. Right. If it's 2 1, I. I think the things are different. I know you say, oh, it's just one game, but in a short series that could mean the difference. I think he trusted what his team was capable of doing even if that didn't go well. And. And, and it certainly didn't. And it proved that, you know, the next game they were able to handle and. And get that win. Do you think, like, there's certain trends, and we've spoken about this, that you go in and throw as hard as you can for as long as you can, then next man up, that's basically pitching. But when it comes to hitting, are we going to find more teams with their best player leading off with success With Ohtani, Kyle Schwaber, I don't know. If you have other teams that come to mind that we're going to hit you right away. I'm going to get more at bats with my guy. And that's where I kind of differ philosophically. 162. I get it. You might get 35 to 40 more at bats in your best player, and that might win you one to two to three baseball games, which could be the difference for some teams in the postseason. I still don't get that because now you're not running the same models in a best of seven series. How many more at bats is Ohtani going to get if it goes 7 versus the second hitter? And is that going to be enough to help him win a game? Now, Ohtani's a freak. Let's leave him alone. He's the leadoff hitter. He can hit for power, he can steal. But I'm talk. Let's just talk about Schwarber, you know, not getting him in RBI situations. You look at Toronto and how they're built. Guerrero bats in the three spot. It's perfect for him. Imagine if Guerrero, their best hitter, or Bo Bruschette, their best hitters leading off. Now, all of a sudden, you in a short series, as a pitcher, I have an advantage, I think, over their best hitter because he's not going to come up with too many times with runners in scoring position. So 162 again, I get it. It. I've never understood it in a best of five, but that's the thing. They never change. So if you do it the whole regular season, you're going to do it in the postseason. And that's like splitting hairs a little bit for me. But. But I would you imagine Barry Bonds today? He would be leading off. Thank you. Thank you. For a guy who gave up nine home runs. Thank you. Lead off, home run, I don't care. Like, those are the kind of things that in the postseason when you're not giving your best hitter the chances to get with runners on over the course of a season. That's what, that's my only argument about that, that narrative that works in the 162 like Aaron Judge batting second. He added third a lot. But Aaron Judge is another great example of putting him in a spot to have fear factor for runners on. And I get it, you know, nine guys, you start your lineup the way you want and then it never works that way the rest of the game. I understand that. Has anybody ever asked you to autograph a ball that, that you gave up for a home run? Like the hitter has any hitter. So that, that's a no go that you don't. I would have done it. Oh, I would have done it for sure. So Bond said, hey, you know, I hit this one off of you. Would you autograph this? Oh sure. Now I've seen the flip where Bonds at the All Star game, some pitcher came to ask him for an autograph and he said, heck no, you hit me twice, I ain't signing nothing. We're working on some hall of Fame resumes. Dale Murphy, Steve Garvey, Don Mattingly. Yeah. Anybody else? Anybody else? Steve Garvey was a 10 time All Star, John. Yeah, no, Steve Garvey was. I mean when I think of the Dodgers, I think of Steve Garvey when I grew up watching, you know the, the 70s and the early 80s, but they're all worthy. And you know, I'm, I'm, I'm partial obviously to Dale Murphy and what he did and how he did it with such bad baseball teams. You know, I mean that's one thing that people don't take into consideration. Then of course you, Andrew Jones coming up, who I think is sure fire hall of Fame player who's yet to get in. But, but Don Mattingly is, is one of the guys that everybody who from New York talks about and how good he was and if he could have stayed healthier, the numbers he would have put up, he would have thrived in today's era. And that argument goes, I'll argue anybody that the, the Tony Gwyn's, the, the guys who did not hit for power could have thrived today because they don't swing, you know, from their derriere and they would get on base a lot more, but they would be swinging differently, John, because they would be brought up differently. Tony Gwynn would be brought up. You got to swing hard. Wade Boggs, Rod Carew, unfortunately they would be told, hey, this is what the analytics Say true. Unless they have the special gift like an arise, like there are. We're seeing a shift, it's slow. But the Toronto Blue Jays and the Milwaukee brewers are not flukes on why they're here. They put the ball in play, they don't strike out. If you look at the last 25 World Series champions, you're not going to find three of them that are in the top 10 in my memory that were leading the league in strikeouts or in top 10 strikeouts. It's hard to do. I know home runs are king and I get it like. But when you can combine the both, which Toronto does and Milwaukee does, changes how team plays against you, it changes the narrative of you're going to have to work harder to get Toronto Blue Jays from eliminating them from the Series. Yeah, I've been saying that. Put the ball in play, get a walk, take an extra base, steal, like all of these different things. And Milwaukee has done that. They don't have star power, but it feels like they're going to always be testing you and you're not. They're not waiting for a big inning. It's just we're going to, it's death by water torture. It's going to be no doubt, drip, drip, drip, drip. No doubt. And we've already seen a game and unfortunately the young, you know, pitcher for Philadelphia, when you put the ball in play, you never know what's on going, gonna happen. But when you swing and miss, you know what's going to happen and it's nothing. And, and, and again, 162. They don't care how many strikeouts there are, but in a postseason game, man, man on third. I've seen it. We've seen the 15 inning game just make contact, game over, couldn't do it. And I think for Milwaukee, that's what makes them special. And they run, they field, they have great arms and they basically have drafted players that fit the narrative of how they're going to play. And that's why they. Nobody. There is not one athlete, expert, not one baseball expert said Milwaukee have the best record in baseball leaving spring training. Not one. Did you cry at your daughter's wedding? I did not. I did not. But I tell you it was. I have two of them this year, so one more coming up in November. But I definitely. If I, I would have cried. If I'd have played the accordion, probably. See, I got three daughters. There is no way I can get through this without crying. No. Well, I've been very fortunate to have some really good son in laws and that, that helps. And maybe you didn't care about your daughters as much as I care about mine. So you're kind of emotional. That's a good point. Yeah. Yeah. You're, you were happy to get them out of the house. I get it. I understand it, John. I understand it. Hey, have fun on the call. Tell Joe we said hello and thanks for joining us. I will. Thanks, Dan. All right. Nice.

Hey sis, what if I could promise you you never had to listen to a condescending finance bro tell you how to manage your money again? Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part. When you pay down those credit cards, if you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards, you may just recreate the same problem. A year from now when you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan starting with your local credit union. Shopping around online looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt. And it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact, it's. It may get even worse. For more judgment, free money advice, listen to Brown ambition on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

I was going to schools to try to teach kids these SK skills and I get eye rolling from teachers or I get students who would be like, it's easier to punch someone in the face when you think about emotion regulation. Like, you're not going to choose an adaptive strategy which is more effortful to use unless you think there's a good outcome as a result of it. If it's going to be beneficial to you because it's easy to say like, like you go blank yourself, right? It's easy. It's easy to just drink the extra beer. It's easy to ignore, to suppress seeing a colleague who's bothering you and just like, walk the other way. Avoidance is easier. Ignoring is easier. Denial is easier. Drinking is easier. Yelling, screaming is easy. Complex problem solving. Meditating, you know, takes effort. Listen to the psychology podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

What we learn what's in store tomorrow. Is my math correct? Fifteen days ago, Penn State was ranked number three in the country. Does that sound about right, Siri? Yes. Paulie. Yeah. After week five, they were ranked third in the country and had received five first place votes. Alexa? Yeah? It's not scripted. Just letting you know this. The show is not scripted or we're geniuses. Play the day status stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program. And we'll be at Notre Dame outside of Legends Bar Pub.

Maybe we're not able to get chairs for you, but standing room only makes it sound like there will be people seated. And there's only standing room. It's only standing room. Standing ovations only. Standing room only. Todd, do you have what headlines for tomorrow? I know we like to do the Monday Night Football headlines. I just threw a couple together. If anybody wants to chime in. I've got for the Bills and Falcons. I just threw this together. Dirty Birds wings get covered in Buffalo sauce. Dirty Birds wings. No, no, I got it. We don't have to pause on every one. And the other Bill's Falcons was a Pennix. Can't arouse them. Falcons offense goes. Okay, thank you. And then I had a couple for Chicago. See, that's why you didn't send it to Paulie. That's probably why, yes. Okay, let me hear the Chicago. Do you have to do the Pennix one all the time? It wasn't the exact one. It was a take. No, but there's always a takeoff on him at Pennix. Envy. I think a lot. Yeah. Okay. Chicago watched Taking Command. Jaden Jettison's Bears into hibernation and capital offense in D.C. a bad loss for the Windy City. Okay. Just have a little fun. You happy? Wasn't my best work, but. No, no, but you got to do it. Yeah, I like to do the little headline thing. No, you reminded me. You reminded me and then you dropped the paper right in front of me. And then. Oh, there's my mock headline. I didn't want you to trip. It fell on the floor and it want to slip on the paper. Thank you, Todd. Jeff in Whidbey Island. Hi, Jeff. What's on your mind? Morning, Dan. How you doing? Great. Best and worst of the weekend. First of all, Seattle Mariners. Whidbey island is just northeast of Seattle and spent half my. Half my time here, but become a big fan of them and Seahawks for that matter. So it was a good weekend for them. Grew up in Chicago. Cubbies loss with the potential for Cubbies and Mariners World Series. And I also have a dog that is going to sing A belated Birthday. I tried to get get through on Todd's birthday last week. Was unable to. So I don't. I can't sing as well as Todd does. God forbid us all, but I gotta do that to get him going and then he'll start singing. So bear with me. Okay. Your dog is name is. His name is Oliver. Oliver. Okay, so here's Jeff and Oliver singing a happy birthday belated to Fritzi all the way from Whidbey Island. All right, here we go. Ready? Okay. Okay. Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, dear John Happy birthday to you. He usually does much, much better than that. Jeff, were you stepping on Oliver's paw? Felt like he was kind of screeching. He wasn't really singing. He rolled out. He rolled over. So he. What he does, he marks a little bit. He starts howling like a coyote, which is. He's a little terrier mutt. But it's funny when he really gets into it. Yeah, it could have been. But thank you. Thank you, Jeff. Big build up and I thought we were going to have. All right, this is going to be one of those great moments. I thought that counts. It was very cool. You know what? Maybe the dog did not want to sing Happy Birthday to you. It's very possible. But he's got his little passhole dog sweater on. Probably. Probably stepped on his paw to get him just to make some noises there. Don in Virginia. Hi, Don. What's on your mind today? Hey, guys, what's happening? I don't know. Don, help me. All right, let me start out with saying 5, 11, 205. And as far as a popular band that a lot of people love, that I don't. Mine is Metallica. The lyrics are, it's just way too nihilistic. For me, I find Kirk Hammond to be a fantastic guitar player, but songs like Fade to Black and One it's, it's just too dark and nihilistic for me. I've just never really been into it. All right, thank you. Don't. Yeah, I wasn't a Metallica guy, but I, you know, I was a little bit older, so I'd already had heavy metal bands or, you know, rock and roll bands. Some Metallica came along and I'd be like, yeah, that's nice. But there's other bands that preceded them that are a whole lot better in my opinion. Just my humble opinion. Let's see. Disdain, sports history. Paul, just a couple for you. 1960, the World Series ended on a home run for the first time. Bill Mazeroski. Bottom of the ninth, Pirates beat the Yankees. This is one for you, Dan. 1967, the first game of the new ABA was played. Pat Boone, the owner of the Oakland Oaks, sang the national anthem. And in 1998, the NBA canceled regular season games due to a work stoppage. The the team that the Oakland Oaks played in the first ABA game was the Anaheim Amigos. The Anaheim Amigos, they're not around anymore. Jeff in West Virginia. Hi, Jeff. Hey. First time, long time. 6, 1, 2, 40. And a couple of bests for the weekend. Seattle, Detroit, Friday night. Man, what a heavyweight fight. It felt like watching them a boxing match 30 years ago from the other side of the world and you had to stay up late to see what happened. And then of course Indiana going to Oregon on Saturday and beating the Ducks. You know, non biased view on this. I'm not, I'm not a fan of any of these teams, but they were just great matchups to watch. And then, then the worst of the week is really just the craziness of college football. I mean James Franklin, you just said it. They were number one or they were top ranked a few weeks ago and 13,3 last year. Now he's looking for a job. Yeah, but that's just college football now because things change so rapidly and you're going to get teams that weren't great teams before or traditionally great teams. And they're going to get a couple of players or somebody's going to spend some money transfer portal. I mean they got a great quarterback, Mendoza, probably the leading candidate for the Heisman. When you get him transferring in, you know, maybe he's a top 10 draft pick. So these things change quickly and that's what we've seen. Let's go around the room. What we learned, Todd What'd you learn today? John Smoltz doesn't really follow bands. He's more of an accordion type guy. Seaton, what did you learn? I'm sneaky. Massive. Yeah. All right. Yes. Marvin, what did you learn? Marvin? The Steelers have a nice personality, but they're not hot. Paul, John Smoltz doesn't like music. Todd, what did I learn today? Gus in LA loved USC taking down Michigan and says when the Cowboys lose, America wins. Thank you. Hope you had a great day or hope you're gonna have a great day. Hope we helped you have a great day.
