I got the Colts minus six and a half against the Ravens and I've got the Bengals minus six and a half at the Eagles and the Raiders minus four and a half against the Seahawks. Our gambling podcast after this show with Shay and Irving, Bad Larry and also Dylan will have that up on the website@danpatrick.com Weekend of NFL preseason games starting tonight. And just don't overreact either way. If Shador Sanders plays well on Friday or doesn't play well on Friday, don't overreact. I go back to Zach Wilson a couple of years ago, his first game. People are like, yep, look at that man. Did the jets get their guy? Well, we know how that ended and what you're trying to do is I. And, and if you talk to coaches, one more probably important offensive coordinators or even defensive coordinators, like the little things that they're looking for, we see, oh, my God, he overthrew that guy, or he threw a pick or that guy dropped the ball, he ran the wrong route, or did he run the wrong route? Did the quarterback throw it the wrong. You know, so there's so many things that go into this because you have players who were playing in their first game or getting, getting to know their first team unit. You know, Shador Sanders hasn't taken too many snaps with the first team, but due to injuries, he's going to be starting on Friday night. So when you see these quarterback battles or you see a player and you go, boy, he didn't look that good, or, boy, did you see that, you know, sixth round pick out of tcu. He looked incredible. This is like the summer league in the NBA where we'll watch and we'll go, man, that guy, he put up 40 and then he doesn't even make the roster. So be careful. And I know we're anxious to be like, man, I'm, I'm ready to go, but just be a little bit cautious. There's a yellow blinking light when I'm watching it. Just, I. It's never red, it's never green. It's sort of a cautionary tale. 877-3-DP show email address dp@danpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP Show. Good morning, those watching on Peacock and our radio affiliates around the country. Seaton poll question for hour two is going to be what we have up there right now. Which type of content do you prefer? Oh, boy. Which type of content? Sorry, do you want more of investigative journalism or lifestyle pieces? Okay, right now, 85% of the audience say investigative journalism. Oh, they do? Yes. Now, the second part that's going up is which type of content do you actually watch or consume? And those people who said 85% are going to. If they answer the same thing, they're lying. I think we wanted, if you're older, I think you want investigative stories. I just don't think we have the patience now where you're going to read something that could be eight or nine pages long or it's on TV and it's 15 minutes. I just don't know if people have the patience to, to do that, to watch that. Plus, if you're watching sports, we want sports to be positive. We don't want negative stories. We don't want anything that attaches Ohtani to a gambling scandal. We don't want to see a school taken down. We don't want a school get the death penalty or a coach be suspended, a player be suspended. When you think about it, we, we love the positivity of sports. Now granted there's a winner and a loser, but we want them to be able to play or be able to coach. We want the feel good story. I just don't know if people wake up and go, too much positivity. Yes, people don't wake up and say too much positivity. However, was there like a more exciting time in. I mean, there were a lot of exciting times in sports, but the whole BALCO thing, the whole steroid era, covering that, the, I mean all of those things were. Every day you woke up and were like, what's going to happen today? What's next? How is this all going to go? That was awesome. Having covered that, I, I thought there was too much coverage of it, but it, we were unearthing things all the time. It'd be another name, you know, there'd be another source that, I mean, it, it, it just, it metastasizes and then all of a sudden, you know, it's every single day that you go to work and you have to cover that and you're hoping there's something that you can add to it. But yeah, back then, because it was salacious and you know, baseball, home runs, bonds, balco, a rod. Who's this doctor? What are they getting? What's the clear, what's the cream? And how does that help you hit home runs? I the number of people back then who would say, hey, you can take the clear and cream, but that doesn't help you hit a baseball. Well, it helps you hit a baseball further. And I would always say, why would you risk your career if it didn't help you do something? The amount of money that was made off of performance enhancing drugs, the clear and the cream and steroids, that's why they did it. You run the risk because to them it was worth the risk. Now, in retrospect, if you ask Rafael Palmero, was it worth it? Or Sammy Sosa, was it worth it? Or Mark McGuire, was it worth it? Or Barry Bonds, was it worth it? You might get different answers from those guys. They might say, you know what? Yeah, they all got paid. But was it worth it? The public shame to go in front of Congress. If you're Mark McGuire, you were America's hero. You were Paul Bunyan. All of a sudden you're there and they're going, and you know, hey, I'm not here to talk about the past. And I go, oh, my God. If that's your game plan, you're in trouble. Rafael Palmero pointing his finger. And Rafael Palmeiro's got 3,000 hits. He was. He's going, you're going to the hall of Fame. Now nobody brings his name up, you know, when they talk about other players. Rafael Palmero, does he have 500 home runs? I know he's got 3,000 hits. He might have 3,500 home runs, and he's not getting into the hall of Fame. Yeah, Paulie.
