00:00:00
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.

00:00:05
Speaker 2: Final hour of the final show this Super Bowl week here in San Francisco. Again, thank you to the San Francisco Giants for their hospitality and all the great crowds who have shown up early and often here in uh well, it's the China Basin. It's McCovey Cove. On the other side of McCovey Cove, we'll talk to Cede Lamb of the Cowboys. Also Chris collins Worth, Mike Terico. They'll be calling Super Bowl sixty. All of that coming up here in the final hour of the program eight seven seven three DP show. Try to sneak in a couple more phone calls. Good morning if you're watching on Peacock or the NBC Sports Network. Matthew Stafford became the oldest first time MVP winner in NFL history.

00:00:47
Speaker 3: Why A. Tittle won the nineteen.

00:00:50
Speaker 2: Sixty three MVP and he was two hundred and seventy two days younger than Matthew Stafford. Also, this Super Bowl, we have a running group coming through here.

00:01:04
Speaker 3: Hi, guys, Well.

00:01:08
Speaker 4: That bad bonney is blasting. My gosh. They're getting ready for Sunday.

00:01:12
Speaker 2: Super Bowl sixty will be the second Super Bowl hosted at Levi Stadium. The Broncos beat the Panthers twenty four to ten.

00:01:20
Speaker 3: Todd, Yeah, they did.

00:01:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, seven sacks, four takeaways. If Cam Newton had won that Super Bowl, would he be an MVP or he was an MVP, would he be a Hall of Famer? Because I don't he's up for the Hall of Fame first time next year. I don't think he's going to be a Hall of Famer. He had seven really good years, but an MVP and a Super Bowl appearance, yes, Mark, I.

00:01:49
Speaker 5: Feel like him and Matt Ryan in the same category, like a Super Bowl win would have really help their case for the Hall of Fame.

00:01:55
Speaker 2: Matt's got more Pro Bowls, he had more sustained goodness greatness than Cam did. Cam's highlight. You know, the big stat is rushing touchdowns, but I think Josh Allen's already surpassed that, and I thought, you know, if you get to eighty touchdowns rushing, yeah, Pauli.

00:02:16
Speaker 6: Cam also had almost six thousand yards rushing.

00:02:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, in a not long long career.

00:02:24
Speaker 2: That's one of those more designed runs probably would have helped him. But I go back to that season opener the following year where Carolina plays Denver and I'm down on the field because we were doing Football Night in America and the Broncos beat the hell out of Cam Newton.

00:02:41
Speaker 3: Like it was.

00:02:43
Speaker 2: I don't want to go as far as say cheap shots, but man, you could have read into it. They hit him and hit him often and it you know, I don't care how big you are, and if you're around Cam, you go.

00:02:56
Speaker 4: Damn.

00:02:56
Speaker 2: He played quarterback, but still these guys are coming at you all different angles and they pounded him in that game.

00:03:03
Speaker 6: Yes, PAULI, I'm looking at some numbers, at some metrics, and it doesn't appear that Cam would make the Hall of Fame, but there has to be some type of designation, Like, man, that guy was a handful for a while.

00:03:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if that's.

00:03:13
Speaker 6: An actual award, but there was about a four year window where he was a handful to.

00:03:17
Speaker 2: Deal with and he had one of the great until Jayden Daniels. He had maybe the greatest rookie season in Carolina, you know, with the hope of Steve Smith.

00:03:27
Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, it's like having one of the most dominant seasons of all time. Isn't enough, but it kind of feels like it should be but maybe not. You know, It's like his window maybe wasn't long enough. Yeah, you know, which feels unfair because he was so good in that window.

00:03:46
Speaker 2: But also we look at quarterback and you have to have kind of like ten years, and if Cam had seven, really good. I mean, it just feels like at that position, we expect more out of you than a running back or any other position.

00:03:59
Speaker 7: Yes, he doesn't seem to get any injury benefit of doubt where there are some. I mean, he was hurt for a lot of his career, and there's a lot of people that are like, man, if it wasn't for injuries, he would have been better. Cam doesn't get that same benefit of the doubt of it's too bad he was injured so much because he was great, but.

00:04:14
Speaker 2: He didn't get the career ending injury like Terrell Davis that you if Cam Newton got injured after seven years, I wonder if they grade him differently. Who will win the MVP next season? Case you're wondering, I got the odds. Before we get to Cede Lamb Marvin, I'll start with you. Best odds to win the MVP next year.

00:04:38
Speaker 4: Josh Allen bloop wow.

00:04:41
Speaker 2: Second best odds to win MVP, Paul Patrick, Mahomes, No todd Oo, Nick.

00:04:48
Speaker 3: Seeon obviously, Justin Herbert. It's it's Lamar Jackson. Woa.

00:04:54
Speaker 2: Then you have Mahomes, Herbert and Burrow and Drake May all with the same odds.

00:04:59
Speaker 7: I bet you that list maybe, uh, Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson.

00:05:03
Speaker 3: I bet they've been top three. Yeah for the last ten years. Yeah, you're right. Ceedee.

00:05:09
Speaker 2: Lamb stopped by yesterday after the show, joining us on behalf of Old Spice, and I started the interview by saying, you look like a million bucks. Do you have a million bucks of jewelry on today?

00:05:23
Speaker 4: I don't know, don't I wish I did.

00:05:25
Speaker 3: What's the most expensive expensive thing you got on you?

00:05:28
Speaker 4: Probably my watch, but we don't have to go into numbers.

00:05:34
Speaker 3: And now you got the teeth match in the earrings.

00:05:38
Speaker 5: Man, you know, expensive taste a little bit. I feel like it was worth it a little bit.

00:05:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think I could get by with that.

00:05:50
Speaker 4: That's okay, No, it's okay both of us.

00:05:53
Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:05:55
Speaker 2: I was curious about the competitiveness of the flag football game.

00:06:00
Speaker 5: Honestly, So this is how it goes. Like, obviously there's gonna be a long game. We realized it was twelve minutes four quarters, twelve minutes per quarter, right, Yeah, it was a running clock. The clock goes on, but it wasn't moving as fast. So we're like, all right, we're gonna be.

00:06:16
Speaker 3: Here a while.

00:06:17
Speaker 4: Feel like a real football game, you know.

00:06:19
Speaker 5: And then it started to pick up as you realize, it started to pick up after halftime.

00:06:23
Speaker 4: So the first two quarters is like.

00:06:28
Speaker 5: Kind of methodical in a way, but then think the game started picking up after the in the second half.

00:06:33
Speaker 3: Who is the most competitive out there as far as team or player?

00:06:40
Speaker 4: Oh, everybody on the NFC. I know that. For In fact, I feel like we started locking in really. Yeah. It got seriously towards the end, Like.

00:06:48
Speaker 5: Once the fourth quarter begin, everyone's like, all right, now let's go in.

00:06:53
Speaker 3: It's like Dak gave a speech, didn't it.

00:06:55
Speaker 4: It's a good time. It was a good time. You always do.

00:06:58
Speaker 2: So the pride takes over of the NFC versus the af six.

00:07:02
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like it does. The AFC. They just they just can't pull it off.

00:07:08
Speaker 5: Sell them though, you know, good good to have you to come compete, go at a great you know, bond with us.

00:07:15
Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, the NFC, no, we.

00:07:17
Speaker 2: Control the trave Are you rooting then for Seattle because they're the NFC in the Super Bowl?

00:07:23
Speaker 5: No, that doesn't go in the same way as the Pro Bowls.

00:07:31
Speaker 3: Do you care who wins?

00:07:32
Speaker 4: Honestly no, I don't.

00:07:34
Speaker 5: But congrats to them though, because obviously they work so hard to be here, and obviously I wish me and my team was there, so like there's a bit of jealousy, you know, but they again they deserved. They work hard, they stay healthy, they did everything they need to do throughout the season. So congrass whoever wins and whoever lose. I know it feels it's pretty bad, but it's good to be here.

00:07:56
Speaker 3: Is there a defensive back that gives you trouble meet trouble?

00:08:01
Speaker 4: Nah?

00:08:01
Speaker 5: Nobody now, But I will say it's like there's a lot of good dbs out there. You know, you got Pascertained, you got dnzel Ward, you got de Extin, you got guards of that nature. You got Tarik Wiland who's now in the and the Super Bowl. Christian gonzales I named all that if you realize I named a lot of a FC dbs.

00:08:17
Speaker 4: I feel like they're pretty nice.

00:08:19
Speaker 3: But nobody gave you no, no, not possible.

00:08:24
Speaker 4: I wouldn't say that possible. It's not probable.

00:08:27
Speaker 3: Any of these guys talk to you.

00:08:29
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, now have a couple. We have a couple of chit chats. Is nothing crazy. It's like, you gotta give me some work. You're not giving me nothing, you know, That's all it is. It wouldn't be short and brief, you know, like, let's get to it, like I'm bored, you know.

00:08:41
Speaker 2: Like, can you let our audience know what it's like though, to be a cowboy where you're the most famous franchise, but everything you do is under a microscope during the game, after the game, when you know, social life, all of that.

00:08:58
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a big unique I feel like it's one of one. It's something that you much more have to experience then I can give you the experience, you know, Like for me, it's gonna be much different than anyone else because I feel like obviously the I'm living on a microscope, and I feel like everything that I do is it's emphasized a lot, right, So I mean you get used to it as you as you continue to build on the culture, understand what's going on, the scenery, the team, get in the field for how we do things. But man, it's tough. It's almost like I don't really know. You walk outside your house and everyone's already outside your house, win on you to come out. It's almost like an expecting appearance, you know.

00:09:37
Speaker 4: So for us, there's the expectation that's built off the history that we've had and we got to uphold.

00:09:44
Speaker 5: So I feel like for us, the pressure's on every single time that we line up or that we're continuing to get the band together to work towards the championship. So everything's gonna be overemphasized. We play good, it's the greatest day on earth. We play bad, it's the worst day you can have in your life, you know. So I feel like for us, you got to keep that even that even line, stay neutral and just enjoy it, because I mean, you don't get really too many expenses.

00:10:08
Speaker 4: How you get in Dallas.

00:10:10
Speaker 3: Are you guys like the Kardashians of the NFL.

00:10:14

00:10:17
Speaker 3: And if so, who are you?

00:10:19
Speaker 4: See?

00:10:21
Speaker 5: I can't just give myself a comparison of a woman, right is that?

00:10:24

00:13:08
Speaker 5: I feel like we're very close. We just gotta we gotta put the pieces together. Right as we know, our offense was fined, our defense wasn't as good. But once we combine those two things, we got a couple of pieces that we need to bring back offensively. And I'm pretty sure everybody here knows exactly what I'm talking about.

00:18:32
Speaker 2: Sneaking a couple of phone calls, then we'll bring you our conversation with Mike Tarico and Chris Collinsworth, Michael and Oregon.

00:18:39
Speaker 3: Hey Mike, what's on your mind today? Hi Dan?

00:18:42
Speaker 9: I'm sorry to kind of take a swerve tour the sirius here, but I wanted to talk about polonoscopies. I made a grand mistake when I was in my fifties. I thought I was pretty super healthy. I was running, I was doing vedget hearing and etc. And so in my head I said, well, I'll do it when i'm sixty. Well at fifty fifty eight, guess what I got coerective cancer and stage three B is really aggressive and it was horrible. I have an ostemy now they cut into me and it's horrible to talk about. But what I want to encourage people on bo Jackson, what a hero, oh God, to get this out there. Kids, if you've got any symptoms, go I had symptoms when I was fifty five doing and I didn't pay attention to them, and I what an error. But the irony of the whole thing. Maybe my wife has an ostomy. I met her through an ostemy site, so I wouldn't have met her if I wouldn't have got cancer. That'll blow your mind.

00:19:55
Speaker 2: But anyway, well, thank you for the phone call. The reaction to the BoJack interview was great, but the reaction should be that you're going to get tested, whether it's a colonoscopy or prostate cancer or both, and do not wait until you're fifty.

00:20:11
Speaker 3: Please do not wait.

00:20:12
Speaker 2: We just did a PSA for prostate cancer and we're all going to be tested. I just had my blood tested for prostate cancer because I had raised levels there and everything came back and it was fine. But as bo Jackson said, and he had not told anybody he had prostate cancer surgery three months ago, but coming on to give the awareness to that. And it shouldn't take that, but sometimes it does when somebody, you know, heroic legendary like Bo Jackson says, Hey, even me, I can get prostate cancer.

00:20:50
Speaker 3: But make sure you get screened. Please make sure you get screened.

00:20:54
Speaker 2: Mike Tariko, Chris Collinsworth, they'll be on the call for the Super Bowl. They sat down with us a couple of days ago. It'll be the first Super Bowl for Mike Tariko on the call, and that's where I started our conversation. First for me, okay, and then mister Patriot in the super Bowl? Is this the fifth Patriot super Bowl you've done?

00:21:16
Speaker 3: Is that unbelievable or what? Just a coincidence? Of course? Well? Maybe not. You never know.

00:21:21
Speaker 11: You know, I'm unpopular a lot of places. Maybe I can be popular there.

00:21:25
Speaker 3: You never know. Okay, where are you the most unpopular Philadelphia? Okay?

00:21:30
Speaker 11: No, Grandam Champion grandam, did you earn it?

00:21:35
Speaker 4: Of course.

00:21:37
Speaker 3: Thousand percent? And where are you most popular?

00:21:41
Speaker 11: You would think Cincinnati, although that really is not the case at all. Although I do think I'm making a comeback in a few places. Okay, yeah, yeah, they think I yeah overly love Patrick?

00:21:57
Speaker 3: Yeah you can say it. Do you overly love Patrick Mahomes? Well?

00:22:01
Speaker 11: Now I'm like, it's like getting to be entertainment. So I'm taking advantage of it now. Now I'm looking for memes. I'm like, God, what did I do to Patrick this week?

00:22:11
Speaker 3: You know, it's like it's I'm his boy. I guess I don't know. Do you have the have you drawn the ire of any fan base?

00:22:19
Speaker 4: MinC?

00:22:19
Speaker 3: Not yet?

00:22:19
Speaker 4: No.

00:22:20
Speaker 8: I just let Chris take those balls, and.

00:22:22
Speaker 3: It's good for me that way. Why does Joe Buck run into that?

00:22:25
Speaker 4: I don't know.

00:22:26
Speaker 8: It's so wrong too that that that actually angers me because Joe's not.

00:22:30
Speaker 3: Like that at all. Wait, it angers anger me. Joe's the best.

00:22:33
Speaker 11: Yeah, but Joe's like a smart alec, you know, like he's not going to take He could be in the last thirty seconds of the super Bowl and what and he if something comes to his brain, you know what he used to do.

00:22:47
Speaker 3: This is no kidding. So you were with Troy and Joe for the first Super Bowl.

00:22:50
Speaker 11: Right yeah, yeah, yeah in Jacksonville. But he would go in and we're sitting there. We go into these production meetings, and the poor assistant coach would come in there and and we'd be asking questions. Troy and I are trying to break down a day and the whole thing, and Joe's got his card out, you know, He's like, it's very serious, make a note and do you and all that, and then he would the coach would get up and leave the room, and then Joe, who does great impersonations, would do an impersonation of the coach he had just met, leaving the room, talking about how incredibly stupid I am as a coach and why would you ask me these? I mean just like stand up comedy routines. So there's a reason why, you know, fans they catch on.

00:23:36
Speaker 4: But do you.

00:23:37
Speaker 2: Listen like social media does it, you know, bring attention to things that are important to you that maybe you didn't realize that you're what you're saying during a game or not saying during a game.

00:23:48
Speaker 8: I think every once in a while you'll get caught making a mistake and that's that's fine, that's legit. But most of the criticism is there's a direct correlation with who loses the game and who's angry at you on social media. But well, I think what we all want to do is play by play. Guys, at least you want to get on social media. Well maybe you don't want to, but if you get on, you want somebody to say you're you're so pro Rams, and then the next tweek to say you are so up the Bears, you know what you know, like, okay, fine, then I did a great job and I'm gonna leave tonight happy.

00:24:18
Speaker 3: That's what you want.

00:24:19
Speaker 11: That's the single most asked question I've had in my career. Why do you hate THEE? And then whoever follows after that? And so why do you hate the whatever? The Rams? And you know do you try to answer him, but it's like there's no way to answer that, like why do you hate the And I was like, you know, what's your favorite team? Old the Rams? But and I said to you, I hate anybody else, and go, no, just the Rams. I've listened to you a long time. You just hate the Rams.

00:24:49
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, all right, I'll work on it.

00:24:52
Speaker 2: It's the team calling Super Bowl sixty this Sunday, Mike Teriko calling his first Super Bowl and Chris collins Worth calling his sixth fifth in evolving the Patriots. The storyline going into this game will be what for you, Mike, It's.

00:25:06
Speaker 3: A good one because there's not one of those.

00:25:08
Speaker 8: Here's Brady going for his third or his fourth or a sixth or anything like that. I think for me it is can this new England team, which we're so familiar with, but they're the best party.

00:25:19
Speaker 3: Guess at the Super Bowl? They're always here?

00:25:21
Speaker 8: Can this new England team with a new era win the old Patriots way? Defense, quarterback, go make a mistake in a close game and find a way to win. To me, that is it's really magnetic what this team has done in a short period of time. It doesn't mean to be East Coast bias, but I just feel like that national brand and all their success and they've been to twelve now, which is insane, and they're going for seven, which nobody's done before.

00:25:46
Speaker 3: And the owner can't get in the Hall of Fame or the coach who won the six ye how about that?

00:25:52
Speaker 4: Silly?

00:25:52
Speaker 3: It really is okay?

00:25:53
Speaker 2: Which one's crazier that the owner with eleven or the coach with six?

00:26:00
Speaker 11: They're both so stupid. I can barely stand it. I mean, why do we have a Hall of fame?

00:26:05
Speaker 4: Then?

00:26:06
Speaker 11: Is the Hall of Fame not supposed to be about who are the best teams and coaches and owners and all like?

00:26:12
Speaker 3: But it makes noose.

00:26:13
Speaker 8: We we have to understand the group that was voting. They can't vote everyone in, right, so there were decisions that had to be made. Were guys going to be up for their last time and all that, which speaks to the larger issue of what they're trying to do. The whole first ballot Hall of Fame thing is great conversation. You guys have crushed that conversation over the years, both sports. I mean, you know how circular is the the Pete Rose, the Barry Bonds conversation on the baseball side. But of course these guys are Hall of famers. So but are they being punished for cheating?

00:26:42
Speaker 3: What do you think?

00:26:46
Speaker 11: I just told you I'm making up the people in New England.

00:26:49
Speaker 3: I'm not doing it up now.

00:26:51
Speaker 2: Well, Mike, I can ask you. Nobody hates you, so you answer this ques, let's start this way. If they are, that's wrong. I don't know what's in the mind of the people voting. So I voted on the AP.

00:27:07
Speaker 8: All Pro Team and MVP and all that, and I didn't do it this year because starting the NBA, I didn't feel like I had the time to do it the right way.

00:27:14
Speaker 3: Chris can tell you, like.

00:27:15
Speaker 8: Voting for the left guard who's all pro is hard, but that's historic stuff. That's the stuff that are benchmarks for a career. If you don't have the time to do it the right way. I believe that all the people do in the Hall of Fame voting really invest in it and spend time in it. But it's a hard nut to crack when you're trying to justify did everybody do this the right way?

00:27:36
Speaker 2: Well, I don't want them changing the rules the process during the process. You want to change this system, change the system. But you'll say, I'm not going to vote for crafton Belichick because they're going to get in. Let me try to get these other guys in. That's a flawed system.

00:27:51
Speaker 8: And the outcry from the people who are in the game about Belichick not getting in, that tells me that the system needs adjustment.

00:28:00
Speaker 3: Yeah, sure it does. You got suggestions there.

00:28:05
Speaker 11: I mean to me, it's like when something you know, what's what's the old saying?

00:28:11
Speaker 3: I think long, think wrong?

00:28:14
Speaker 11: Like if you're thinking about the other stuff, like I'm a football fan, should Bill Belichick and Robert Crafty in the Hall of Fame?

00:28:23
Speaker 3: Yeah? Period?

00:28:24
Speaker 11: I mean, you know, okay, everything else I get. You know, there's a but the bottom line is there are some that are just obvious, and we should not be kicking out obvious.

00:28:34
Speaker 4: Now.

00:28:35
Speaker 11: If you wanted to throw them out of the league, and you want to say the Flaygate or whatever at the time and whatever, you're gonna suspend it or whatever the case may be. You know, they did that with Pete Rose and that was all a part of that arrangement. But if it's not part of that arrangement, then it's just silliness.

00:28:51
Speaker 3: How do you vote for them next year? If they're a cheater? Are they They're still a cheater?

00:28:57
Speaker 2: If that's if that was your logic, here can you then say, well, I punish them.

00:29:02
Speaker 3: It was a one year in Hall of Fame jail.

00:29:04
Speaker 8: But Dan, there's no why on the ballot, right, It's just I vote, so that person who may have thought that doesn't have to admit that should and next time they go, hey, you know what the rest of the people said he should be in. Maybe I was wrong and I'll change my vote. Should there be transparency? What is transparency mean who voted against? Well there has been now with all these all star teams, all these all pro teams, those ballots now come out, and that makes you think differently about what you put down, and you've got to be able to defend. Okay, why did you vote for so and so as the best left guard in the NFL or the second best left guard? So if you want to be a part of this, then I think probably your vote should come out.

00:29:42
Speaker 2: How nervous do you get on Super Bowl Sunday, Chris? Compare that to when you played.

00:29:47
Speaker 11: I mean, you and I sat in a room in Minnesota and had dinner one night the night before the game, and we talked about this a little bit. It's like, you know, it's just surreal almost. Think about one hundred and thirty million people watching you, and you are the only person on America's television for one hundred and thirty million people.

00:30:11
Speaker 3: So now you've got to deflect.

00:30:12
Speaker 11: You've got to think of ways to where that's not going to make you cry.

00:30:16
Speaker 3: You know on the air, why did you say that? What? I had thought of it that way until just now.

00:30:24
Speaker 8: I'm going to go for for a little bit mcuffy's cove little row in a boat by myself and think now.

00:30:30
Speaker 3: But but yeah, it does.

00:30:32
Speaker 11: And the nice thing is and it's just like playing in the game. I remember when we my very first Super Bowl, Diana Ross sang the national anthem and she walked right in front of our bitch. I mean, Diana Ross walked that close in front of me.

00:30:48
Speaker 4: And.

00:30:50
Speaker 3: I'm just and that's when Diana Ross was Diana Ross. Now, I mean, this is an amazing one. She still get to the point quick, but it.

00:31:01
Speaker 11: Was so we're all sitting there with our mouths and you know, and she's going and if we go in at halftime, we're down twenty to nothing. I still think it's a I'm total if she'd have walked in front of the other forty nine ers.

00:31:14
Speaker 8: Man, Okay, you don't know what this is going to be like, I have no idea, but that is that good?

00:31:20
Speaker 3: How do you use that to your advantage?

00:31:22
Speaker 8: I've never worried about how many people were watching when I was doing a two am sports center with you, or.

00:31:28
Speaker 3: I didn't do the two am like I'm sorry, here's a Hall of fame.

00:31:33
Speaker 4: I mean.

00:31:35
Speaker 8: The Wednesday one am off the baseball doubleheader when Chris Myers wasn't going to be there, there was us.

00:31:41
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and overman showed up, didn't call in for work. No.

00:31:47
Speaker 8: You know, I I've never really gotten into that numbers thing. And I do remember before halftime we did Super Bowl fifty six, the pregame, halftime postgame. You know, I remember working with Drew Brees and Tony Duney like, oh hey, guys, we've got one hundred ten million people, let's make sure we direct fifty eight seconds of content here.

00:32:03
Speaker 3: The right way. I probably shouldn't have said.

00:32:05
Speaker 8: Drew's like, really, exactly right, that's supposed to do that exactly exactly.

00:32:09
Speaker 3: So that that doesn't that doesn't worry me or bother me.

00:32:12
Speaker 4: I'm not.

00:32:13
Speaker 3: I'm hopeful that that's not going to be in my mind.

00:32:16
Speaker 8: I think the anticipation is great, the adrenaline rush is cool, but you know, doing the Super Bowl trophy presentations, which you've done, doing the Olympics, all that stuff. It's just it's it's the show. But it's just another show. I can't change what people are doing. And the other part that's good is a couple of years I've gone to Super Bowl parties. Nobody's listening to us. I mean, half of that audience is not hanging on your every word. They're talking to somebody, They're getting dip, they want to they want to fuel up for the game. So those one hundred and twenty million, half of them are engaged in some more important conference.

00:32:49
Speaker 3: How many of them are you ever going to meet?

00:32:51
Speaker 11: You know, you're not going to meet one hundred and thirty million people out there. You know, they got social media. They can all bombarde you with something. I will, But I mean the bottom line is it's just like playing in the game. Mistakes are going to happen. You know, I've been doing this for a long time. I have never called a perfect game, never come close to calling them, and I'm not calling a perfect game in this one either. But it's it's part of the human factor. I think it's the why people are drawn to live television in any way. You know, the Grammy Awards, the Academy awards, like there's no control, Like we truly could kind of say anything when we're which is really frightening in some ways. But it's it's the energy that comes from live television that doesn't exist anywhere else.

00:33:40
Speaker 8: No doubt, no backspace, no editor. You just got to do it. You can't screw. But the pursuit of the perfect game is what inspires me. I still think there's a perfect game out there.

00:33:50
Speaker 4: Now.

00:33:51
Speaker 3: If you do pitch a perfect game, we'll see another partner.

00:33:58
Speaker 8: So now I'm nervous. Now I'm going to be nervous, and now I'm giving up on the perfect game. So it's a fun Super Bowl week with Chris.

00:34:03
Speaker 3: It really is. Don't screw it up.

00:34:05
Speaker 2: We're all counting on you, okay, And I'm gonna try to listen to a little bit of it, just a little bit, yeah, just a little bit. Thank you guys, thank you, pal, thank you with you, thank you.

00:34:14
Speaker 3: Chris says.

00:34:17
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to listen live.

00:34:29
Speaker 2: I am going to take the Seattle Seahawks twenty four thirteen over the Patriots twenty four thirteen. Sam Darnald MVP, even though the defense will shine, they'll give it to Sam Darnald. Anybody going Patriots Seaton straight up?

00:34:52
Speaker 3: No points? Uh yeah, I'll take the Patriots.

00:34:55
Speaker 7: I do think that the sort of wild card that things that people might not be talking about enough. As we'll Campbell's struggles in this postseason. He's been a little bit of a leaky valve out there, and I think that's going to be a big problem.

00:35:08
Speaker 2: Also, Drake May getting sacked fifteen times here.

00:35:13
Speaker 3: So thank you will.

00:35:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, fumble issues as well, but I think Drake May's got to play a perfect game.

00:35:21
Speaker 7: He had like eight or ten quarters in a row, I think with a turnover something crazy like that, where he had like, in you know, ten quarters he had eight turnovers or something.

00:35:30
Speaker 3: Just got an update.

00:35:31
Speaker 2: As of eight forty five Pacific time, the current get in price per ticket including fees is thirty eight hundred dollars. That's down six hundred and twenty dollars over the last day, sixteen hundred dollars over the last week, twenty six hundred dollars since the conference championships. Yeah, see, does that normally happen. Or is it just because it's getting closer to the game. Well, I'd say yeah, they put a price and then people are like, I don't want to miss out, and you don't want to come out here and get stuck, so you get your tickets. But I always tell people wait as long as you can, because you'll find somebody who wants to offload tickets if you're willing to play that game. The Giants unbelievable. They've been fantastic all week. They gave us the opportunity to set up shop here by the way Opening night here at Oracle. It'll be the Yankees and Giants, and that'll be March twenty fifth. You can find your tickets at sfgiants dot com slash Opening Night. Also, they wanted us to make mention of Jeff Kent Hall of Fame ceremony they will retire as jersey number twenty one.

00:38:54
Speaker 2: We still have La next year and then we have Atlanta after that. Uh, anything else that needs to be mentioned here.

00:39:02

00:39:10

00:40:02
Speaker 1: Crazy enthusiasm in person of Chris mad Dog Ruso, who has been great with this time, but to have him physically sitting here next to you, that was just a.

00:40:09
Speaker 3: Lot of fun. Seaton probably having Bo Jackson here.

00:40:11
Speaker 7: It was like it was like booking a unicorn, where I was like, I can't believe that this dude is sitting here, like it blew me away.

00:40:18
Speaker 3: So cool, Paul.

00:40:19
Speaker 6: I'm also gonna go Christopher mad Dog Russo because I think, and not over saying this, he's one of the reasons we're sitting here today and a lot of people are out here today and there's a radio row created. Russo is a unbelievable forefather.

00:40:32
Speaker 3: Of this whole media. Marvin.

00:40:34
Speaker 4: I love Jerald McCoy.

00:40:35
Speaker 5: He was unbelievable, unbelievable all season and he brought the energy big time.

00:40:40
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say Malcolm Butler because he's not a star, but he had charisma and he's recounting that interception and he did it with such innocence. It wasn't like and he's probably told the story thousands of times this week, but he told it in a way that it made it feel like he was telling us for the first time. Also, the urge of Bo Jackson to come on and say, Hey, I had prostate cancer surgery. Please please get tested.
