00:02:22
Speaker 5: Celebration of life.

00:02:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, once you get there, Like, what is celebration of life age? Would you say eighty five is the cutoff? If you get to eighty five, anything that happens after that, then we have a celebration of life. Anything before that, do we go, oh, tragically died or.

00:02:40
Speaker 4: Eighty to eighty fours. That's a shame.

00:02:43
Speaker 2: Oh a shame.

00:02:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, because it's not early. But it's not like, hey man, you expected it to happen. Okay, if someone kicks at eighty two, you don't go yeah, no problem.

00:02:53
Speaker 2: But Steven Siegal is still alive. Come on right, yes, Marvin, we're crossing our fingers.

00:02:58
Speaker 4: I hope he is.

00:03:02
Speaker 2: Better hair piece way now, Chuck Norris or Stephen Sigall.

00:03:07
Speaker 6: One's more of a helmet, to be fair, one's more of a hair helmet Steven Sagall seventy three.

00:03:13
Speaker 2: But Stephen Sigae it I mean that one's that's a rough hair piece that he's got. It almost looks like it should have a chintzed around.

00:03:25
Speaker 7: Right.

00:03:27
Speaker 8: Uh.

00:03:28
Speaker 2: Oh, it's easy for you to say you got a full hit of hair. I know, I know, yes, Marvin.

00:03:33
Speaker 5: Steven Sagal he was the King of the Three title movies, right, yeah, like don't Ever Die?

00:03:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Paulie focused on that that every one of his movies has out for Justice.

00:03:44
Speaker 1: Yes.

00:03:45
Speaker 2: Three, I might be Jean Claude van Dam too.

00:03:47
Speaker 4: Are you referring to Steven Sagall, famous for Above the Law, Hard to Kill, Mark for death, Out for Justice on Deadly Ground under siege two? And then he went he made a career choice to go executive decision two words really gutsy, showing his range. Then he went back to fire down below, then exit wounds, so on and so forth.

00:04:05
Speaker 2: How much is he worth? Though not as much as he was?

00:04:10
Speaker 4: That's a good point.

00:04:10
Speaker 2: A lot of samurai's swords there, what he bought samurai swords? I get this.

00:04:16
Speaker 4: He always felt a little foe to me compared to Chuck Norris, a little. I wasn't sure his background was real, Steven sagal.

00:04:24
Speaker 2: But wasn't he an agent or wanted to be an agent, a foreign agent for us, or like he would be a Russian like something.

00:04:35
Speaker 6: We shouldn't be a sullying the name of Chuck Norris with his No, this was Stephen Sagall, correct, Yeah, we shouldn't be well bringing in Steven Sagal. This should be Chuck Norris is about Chuck. Okay, yeah, all right, this.

00:04:49
Speaker 2: Is about Chuck. By the way, newpole question, can anyone even beat up Chuck Norris? Well steven Sagall is still alive? Yeah?

00:04:57
Speaker 6: Right right now? About sixty seven percent? Okay, yes, Chuck versus Bruce Lee. Oh, I'm going Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee is probably the thirty three percent of the s's so far as Bruce Lee.

00:05:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so what you're top two so far? That's what's wrong with that? But what if I put Ali in there? I'm going Chuck different Shock over Muhammad Ali. Yeah, yeah, for sure, here for sure. Yes, Todd weren't.

00:05:25
Speaker 3: A mixed martial arts person beat up any kind of boxer, like one.

00:05:29
Speaker 2: Hundred times correct, unless it's Connor McGregor against Floyd Mayweather.

00:05:34
Speaker 6: Yeah, but they forced him to. They took the MMA guy and say, but you can only box. That is the lamest thing ever. That's you know, UFC if correct me if I'm wrong. But when it originally started, the whole point was getting all of these like mixed disciplines together to see which one could beat up the other. Right, So, like like the karate guy would go against the boxing guy, and there there'd be like a taekwondo guy, and you were kind of seeing which one of those was the superior form of fighting. Now it's just kind of like, well, I specialize in this, but we all sort.

00:06:05
Speaker 2: Of I hope you don't get to stay in I'm definitely we are. It's Friday, it's the last hour. Yes, hus I highly.

00:06:13
Speaker 3: Recommend Blood Sport with John Claude if you like that. That kind of stuff was kind of fights.

00:06:17
Speaker 2: But that's not Chuck Norris.

00:06:19
Speaker 3: It's not Chuck Norris.

00:06:20
Speaker 6: John claud Van Dan was the guy who brought the uh or at least when I think of it, the slow motion reaction face.

00:06:31
Speaker 8: It was.

00:06:32
Speaker 2: That was like the one thing that really stood out about his.

00:06:39
Speaker 4: Yes, Chuck Norris little background. He was in the United States Air Force. Then he was a competitive martial artist and he won like the All American Karate Championship, not the All Valley Championship. It's Daniel LaRusso at Madison Square Garden. He started school's karate schools. Steve McQueen was a client. Bob Barker was a client. Bob Barker not having a good week by the way.

00:07:01
Speaker 2: Now, well, there's a book out about the behind the scenes of prices, right, it doesn't go well.

00:07:06
Speaker 4: Donny Osmond was a client. Chuck Norris's acting breakthrough was in a Bruce Lee movie called Way of the Dragon. He fought Bruce Lee in that movie.

00:07:15
Speaker 2: That's is that Bruce Lee's most famous.

00:07:17
Speaker 4: Movie, one of them, Way of the Dragon, nineteen seventy two. It did very well at the box office, and after that Chuck Norris started getting more roles, and then his own roles.

00:07:28
Speaker 6: All right, so Chuck Norris age eighty six, I think it's according to this, it's the Way of the Dragon, Bruce Lee versus Chuck Norris consider one of the greatest fight scenes ever made.

00:07:38
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, that's pretty rad. Yeah. I remember those Bruce Lee movies. I remember he'd get interviewed on late night shows. They have him come out. I don't think he was a really big conversationalist, but it was still Bruce Lee when he would come out, all right, little detour here.

00:07:58
Speaker 4: Did we ever have Chuck Norris on the show?

00:08:00
Speaker 2: We did? I don't think we did. I don't know why we would.

00:08:03
Speaker 4: Well, I don't think so.

00:08:06
Speaker 2: Yes, I remember.

00:08:07
Speaker 3: Brusually being very philosophically and in his interviews he was it very quiet and just had a very interesting approach to life and how to be like one with nature and being in this state of calm. Very scary. Actually listen to Thank you, Tod, very intimidating.

00:12:02
Speaker 2: All right, well, thank you, Billy. Yeah, this is of fighting a LINI kind of burnt orange. I would say, could be kind of a Texas longhorn somewhere in that vicinity there. Yeah see, I kind of I'm enjoying your corduroy era. Thank you. I like it's like you're finding a new version of yourself. Well, I also found these pants, these corduroy pants with the wide cords, that wide wal Why, oh my god, they're awesome. I think I wore them every single day one weekend here. I think so, and I had no shame whatsoever. Obviously, Yes, Martin, that is correct.

00:12:42
Speaker 5: I didn't want to say anything.

00:12:43
Speaker 2: But it's okay. Yeah, it's okay. But I thought they were and they're comfortable. They look great. You know, my oldest daughter, when she notices, because she's into fashion, she'd be like, hey, I like that. I go all right, I mean that's kind of the acknowledgment I got. It was like, hey, I like that, thank you, Grace, Yes, Paul, or yes see, I.

00:13:08
Speaker 2: Wow.

00:13:10
Speaker 6: Wow, got a slight version of the do they sell men's clothes. Where you got that is? I still think that's one of my best lines. When I see somebody where and I'm just and you say it. I said this to I said this.

00:13:23
Speaker 2: To Matt Lower and we were when when he was at NBC, and I remember I was going to play in a golf tournament and everybody is at the putting green and Matt Lower gets out of you know, some town car or limo and he had these wild shorts on and in front of everybody at NBC. I said, hey, Matt, do they sell men's clothes where you got those shorts?

00:13:51
Speaker 3: Why?

00:13:54
Speaker 2: And he did not think it was funny at all.

00:13:57
Speaker 4: And how long have you two known each other at this juncture?

00:14:00
Speaker 2: Not that long, not that long, but yeah, it was yeah, this is shot. And everybody started laughing, and then they looked at Matt and then they stopped laughing because he wasn't laughing.

00:14:12
Speaker 3: Yes, not everybody gets your sense of humor. Once again, that's one of those moments.

00:14:16
Speaker 2: That was a classic example of somebody not getting my sense of humor. All right, more phone calls coming up, new poll question for the final hour of the program, will take a break, We're back after this. Dan Patrick Show.

Visit neutrofoil dot com enter the promo code. Dan Patrick. I mentioned a while ago that I think Nicola Jokic ranked first in points, rebounds, assist and steals since twenty twenty. Our statman John Tuv says, well, you're kind of right. He is second in points. Luca has about three hundred or two hundred and fifty more points. He's probably done most of that damage in the last like seven games, so Luca has more points. Joker is second in rebounds, just barely second to Rudy Gobert, second in points to Luca, first in assists, and first in steals. Since the year twenty twenty. Whoa cowl Stall of a day?

00:16:19
Speaker 1: Stant of a day?

00:16:21
Speaker 3: Stata a day, Stantata day.

00:16:24
Speaker 2: This is the Stule of the Day, brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. This weekend, the field of the PGA Tour greats taking on the snake Pit, one of golf's most difficult three whole stretches at the Vowspar Championship. Don't miss live coverage on Saturday and Sunday on NBC in Peacock, which is where you can also find this award nominated program. Yes, Paul, I.

00:16:54
Speaker 4: Have a question for you and Marvin specifically because you're really into basketball, and I'm based on this question off. I was looking at the MVPs by year since Steph Curry kind of changed a league and the league became ball dominant, where one player has the ball all the time. Okay, based off that MVPs over the past eight years, Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Giannis Jokic, Jokich again again, and SGA and probably SGA again. How is history going to look at some of these guys in all time categories?

00:17:27
Speaker 2: Well, the Russell Westbrook one is tricky because he has incredible stats, and you know, it's points, rebounds and assists. I can't argue with thirty one to ten and ten. But I don't know if he's like, is Russell Westbrook a top twenty player of all time? No? And I would say no, Yeah, Is James Harden a top twenty player of all time?

00:17:54
Speaker 5: I think he'd be a top twenty player if he had more playoff success. I think the numbers are going to bear out. You know what, he was a great statistical guy, but when it mattered most, he didn't come up big.

00:18:06
Speaker 2: And you kind of forget he's with Cleveland, right right. I mean, we shouldn't forget where somebody is. But I mean, I don't even know what his stat lines have been recently. Yes, Paul, it.

00:18:18
Speaker 4: Feels like Steph Curry's all set. He's got the stats and the winning. But then I was looking back at a guy like Steve Nash. He went back to back MVPs. But I don't know if he's a top twenty guy.

00:18:30
Speaker 2: I wouldn't put him in as a top twenty.

00:18:32
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:18:33
Speaker 2: I think there's a few point guards i'd put in before him. But that was a magical run. Janis is a top twenty player of all time because he won a title and he won two MVPs. Joker is a top twenty player of all time. Who else would we think is Luca right now a top twenty player of all time? No, he hadn't won an MVP, he hadn't won a title, take his team to the championship game or NBA finals. Who else would we throw in there that might be top twenty?

00:19:11
Speaker 7: Ish?

00:19:11
Speaker 2: I mean Durant's top twenty correct? Correct? No brain? Yeah, Paul.

00:19:19
Speaker 4: I'm wondering though, if the whole era gets kind of a scrubbed a little bit by history.

00:19:23
Speaker 2: I think we would grate it on a curve. A curve, yeah, because of the three Well, if you look at the points being scored. Now, it is common that you're scoring one hundred and thirty and teams lose. I think thirty times this year teams have scored at least one hundred and twenty five points or one hundred and thirty and lost. I mean, that's that's wild. Somebody's got to get these points. And that's where you look and you go, you know, this guy's averaging twenty two again, you know Trey Young, and you're like, hey, twenty seven and ten, well, twenty seven and ten now twenty seven and ten, you know, twenty five years ago, big difference. It just feels like, yeah, all right, twenty seven to ten for Trey Young. Yeah, Paul, I'm looking back.

00:20:07
Speaker 4: And the thing about scoring, Michael Jordan he averaged over thirty more than a few times and one mvpiece, But between eighty eight and two thousand and fifteen, no MVP scored thirty or more points. Now they all score.

00:20:22
Speaker 2: Thirty or more.

00:20:23
Speaker 4: Yeah, almost every year.

00:20:25
Speaker 2: Like stephen A said that Jordan would average fifty today's game, I don't think so. He's probably averaging around the same, I think, you know, I mean, he might be thirty five, but he's not averaging fifty if they're winning games, he's not averaging fifty. If it's Mike when he first got in the league, he might be averaging forty because he would feel like that he you know, had to. I think he went up to thirty seven one year. I asked Phil Jackson about that. But you know, Phil said he thought that Mike could average forty a game, and yes, could he average forty a game? I mean, will to average fifty? Could Kareem have averaged forty a game? And the answer is yes, yes, Marvin.

00:21:12
Speaker 5: The funny thing about Michael Jordan is I always say this, I think probably the best Michael Jordan was maybe him before he started winning championships, because it was like thirty seven, thirty five, thirty two, and he was ice Cube said it best freaking brothers every way like MJ anyway you wanted it, he was gonna give it to you. Like he was anyone defensive player of the year averaging thirty seven points a game. Yeah, that might be the greatest singular season ever where it's like he's clearly the best offensive player and clearly the best defensive player.

00:21:43
Speaker 2: And that was three years before even won NBA Championship. Yeah, but you're not going to include Will Chamberlain in there, Will average fifty Modern? Okay, but why don't we do modern when it comes to baseball? Damn?

00:21:58
Speaker 5: I don't know.

00:22:00
Speaker 2: Nobody ever says Mickey Mantle. M it's they're all include even Babe, Lou Garrig, Jimmy Fox.

00:22:09
Speaker 14: Yeah.

00:22:09
Speaker 6: See, I think because baseball didn't add, you know, a five point play halfway through or something like that, the basic like tenants of the game have remained the same for one hundred years.

00:22:20
Speaker 2: No, they brought the outfield in as far as stadiums. They juice the ball in baseball.

00:22:26
Speaker 6: Yeah well, okay, so like you know, basketballs might be made differently now too, but they'd and bringing the walls in Baseball has always had different.

00:22:33
Speaker 2: Dimensions for the size of the fields.

00:22:36
Speaker 6: Right, So, but there's no basketball added a three point play that gives a huge advantage to a more modern player.

00:22:42
Speaker 2: That's a massive line in the sand for me. Yeah, but you used to have center field at four hundred and fifty four feet in baseball. Nobody's hitting any home runs there. No, And they did juice the ball. They got integration in baseball. I don't know it just we do modern with basketball. Will didn't get any help with modern you know, so called modern basketball. It was integrated, no three point shot. But you look at a lot of these guys, you know that you were like John Halcheck's not taking advantage of the three point shot. And he had twenty seven thousand points. So and even when we got the three point shot, you know, Larry Bird's averaging three a game. Maybe that was it. Imagine him now, Reggie Miller, You're averaging at least ten a game, have to right, Todd says, is Moses Malone a top twenty player?

00:23:42
Speaker 3: I was just looking up someone that's won at least one championship and three you know, three times MVP MVP.

00:23:49
Speaker 2: And and the finals MVP. He played for seven different teams. But there was nothing stylistic about Moses. When your nickname is chairman of the boards, I'm just sorry. Sorry, Unless you're Sinatra, that ain't a great nickname. You know. It's like Judd Bushlar. But was I think called the big called the or Tim Duncan the big fundamental, I mean fundy. I think they called Judd Buschler that fundy because he was fundamentally sound. Yes, Marvin, I think.

00:24:23
Speaker 5: With Tim Duncan, luckily he won five NBA championships, because say, if he won two, he would be forgotten in the same way Moses Malone was.

00:24:31
Speaker 2: He would not be a top ten player, right or top fifteen. You're right. Winning that many titles elevates you. But Timmy got better in the postseason, like he game on the line. That's when he was a killer regular seasons like oh, you know, twenty one to ten.

00:24:50
Speaker 4: Yeah, pauling Tim Duncan to me kind of reminds me of or vice versa, Marianna Rivera with the Yankees. We can't stop this guy, we can't hit this guy. He does the same thing all day. And going back to the other thing you said about athletes don't get their due, I think there's three athletes all time that are treated differently. Jim Brown, Babe Ruth, and Wilt Chamberlain. They were so much better at their time than the second best guy. They're like a fable, not a person or not an athlete. Babe Ruth is by far the best baseball player of all time, and it's really not that close. Yeah, And Will Chamberlain at his peak his numbers are silly. They're not They're so far past second they're silly.

00:25:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, Babe Ruth was hitting more home runs than other teams were. I mean, that's Wilt was scoring fifty a game.

00:25:39
Speaker 4: Babe Ruth chose to stop pitching, and when he stopped, he was the best pitcher in baseball.

00:25:45
Speaker 2: Gibbs in Virginia beach, Hi, Gibbs, good to have you back.

00:25:52
Speaker 7: Thanks for taking my call. Tyler. A couple of things and a pie of the face prop Bubba Chuck is the only answer for point guard. A seven five to seven guy got to rep the guy and total Jim was what Chuck Norris was hucking on TV, I believe. But my favorite week of the year, Dan, I don't want to skew two negative. I celebrated a birthday earlier this week and got up on Thursday not too banged up at all, ready to spend the best day in sports in the sports book with my boy James. But my heels wet blanketed that I think Hubert has to be on the hot seats. He's been a good ass dude every time I've met him, But the last ten minutes of every game this year is what left everyone holding their breath at the end of the game. It was you know, we could never run away from teams and hide. It was always the lead was always in question. I think that has to come into consideration. And also the only two losses in the tournament history for Carolina coming under his watch. I got a lot of flak from my UVA guys about the loss, but I want to remind America like I reminded them Dad, I don't won a tournament game in seven years, and if the pie of the face bet is, I will take a pie in the face if UDA wins by five or more today. And if not, Dan, you can still save my April by coming to our nuptials in two weeks.

00:27:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I just don't know if I can get my tuxedo ready in time to get there. So what is the line on that?

00:27:26
Speaker 12: Do you have that?

00:27:27
Speaker 2: Marvin? Wait, he's got Virginia against Wright State, right.

00:27:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, I got UVA given seventeen and a half.

00:27:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got it up to eighteen and a half DraftKings. But he's saying that, Wait, Gibbs, what are you saying about Virginia that they won't win by more than five points. Yes, Oh, anybody want a piece of gibbs in Virginia beach. I didn't think I would be betting on the right state. Raiders here, no takers in here, Gibbs. See, I don't. I don't even like filling out a bracket just because I just love watching the games. I hate rooting for or against, certainly against. Like yesterday with Sienna. I wanted Sienna to win because it was a great story. I didn't care about my bracket, but I did care. That's a that's a fun story to talk.

00:28:22
Speaker 12: You know.

00:28:23
Speaker 2: If Duke wins, we're not saying anything. But if Sienna wins, you got a topic. Trip in Vegas, Hi trip, welcome back.

00:28:33
Speaker 14: Hey, good morning Dan. I'll take that before I get to my call, I'll take that pight of this. I'll take that pile of the face bet. Okay, So Virginia will win by more than five A few things, A good morning to everyone. With Dylan's bet, so I got three three things real quick, Todd would take twenty three dollars for a payout and three punches on a subway club card. Could Chuck Norris beat up Anthony Davis and then as a from so a Gate. Let me ask you this after that happened, and then Setan confessed to another qu not crime, but told you about that? Would he have told you about the Makeo van that I personally saw in Las Vegas? He could have gotten away with it.

00:29:16
Speaker 2: I don't know. Setan. You went into a parking garage and realized the Makeo van wouldn't fit into the garage, and you uh scratched up the entire top of the vand accurate, Uh, I did. I did do that.

00:29:30
Speaker 6: I did that in Morgantown, West Virginia. That was unfortunate, not the first accident I've had there. I you know, I think I don't like the tone of that call at all, because I could have gotten away with it. I could have not said anything. Nobody would have known that the top of that van was all scratched up the way that it was.

00:29:48
Speaker 2: I could have just.

00:29:49
Speaker 6: Driven it right in and to this day people would be sitting there having no idea that that happened. But I chose to make great content out of that. That was really perfect for the sponsorship as a whole. I mean, as a Makeo van that I scratched up and they had to fix Hello, who executed that more perfectly than me?

00:30:05
Speaker 2: I don't know that anybody could have. I didn't know. Are you saying it was scripted?

00:30:08
Speaker 6: Then I'm not saying I'm saying that I made lemonade out of lemons there definitely not my intention, But man.

00:30:15
Speaker 2: Did it work out? Emerson in Minnesota? Hi, Emerson, h Marvin.

00:30:25
Speaker 15: Just look up Zach Eaty's numbers his junior senior year compared.

00:30:30
Speaker 11: To Anthony Davis.

00:30:32
Speaker 15: And then the second thing is there's a record that's been held for thirty three years and it'll be broken today in Saint Louis. You have a clue what the.

00:30:43
Speaker 2: Glue has to do with the Bobby Hurley assist record and the point guard for Purdue needs one, I think two more assists to break the record.

00:30:55
Speaker 1: Is that?

00:30:55
Speaker 2: Is that right?

00:30:57
Speaker 11: That's correct?

00:30:58
Speaker 15: He needs the one assist to tie to to break it.

00:31:00
Speaker 2: So Braden Smith wanted to share that. Yep, Braiden Smith, Okay, Yeah, it's like the one thousand and seventy six assists. You know, it's fun looking at that. Chris Corciani remember Fire and Ice with Rodney Monroe at NC State.

00:31:17
Speaker 4: Good times?

00:31:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were fun Andrew in Missouri. Hi, Andrew, what's on your mind?

You were talking earlier about Chuck Norris and his fighting Bruce Lee, and that's what got him, you know, springboarded him to fame. Well, I believe the year is nineteen seventy six. In the movie was a Game of death where Bruce Lee fought Kareem Abdul Jabbar was a pretty good fight team, and from there springboarded him right onto airplane success.

00:32:45

00:35:16
Speaker 9: Oh sorry, all right, yeah, yeah, you can do them there, buddy, Okay, Pill, what else do you have for me? Kevin, I'm going to go ahead and defend my neighbor, Matt Liner here in the hen Beach. I'm going to go ahead and blame the recruit for asking for MAT's number eleven. It's his fault, right, And then you know I mean, and then if we want to take that onion and get real deep, lay back some more, peel back, some more layers. Let's blame his parents for creating that human Wow.

00:35:48
Speaker 2: Yes, it's the chain of blame here. Wow, it's a it's a big chain there. But if Matt Liner doesn't use the F word and Marvin allows it to go on the radio, Marvin doesn't get suspended. And then all of a sudden we had the Samy Sosi figurine that fell to its death patched up a little bit yesterday, Rick in Indiana, Good morning, Rick, what's on your mind today?

00:36:13
Speaker 11: Well, you guys are talking about the best centers Besides me watching Zach Geedey at the preview for the last two years. Back in nineteen sixty nine, I was able to see Bob Lanier but fifty points on my bulleer makers in a holiday tournament.

00:36:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, with Saint Bonaventure. Yeah, Bob Lanier. I don't know how Bob Lanier ended up at Saint Bonaventure. A big man going to Saint Bonaventure, and I think he had a point guard named Billy Colball ka L B A U G H. Maybe, but I remember Bob Lanier had a like it was one of those guys you go meet. How did he end up at that school? Yeah, PAULI he.

00:36:56
Speaker 4: Averaged for his career, Bob Lanier at Saint Bonaventure twenty eight points in seventeen rebound?

00:37:01
Speaker 2: But was he better than Anthony Davis? Yes, Marvin, he was, but I was just no, it go ahead, No, it is my lifetime. I know, I know, that's that's what I keep forgetting and I realize that you're young and so you know, you make mistakes. Yes.

00:37:19
Speaker 6: See, we have the poll question up there right now, better college player Patrick Ewing or Anthony Davis.

00:37:25
Speaker 2: It's eighty five percenter. We got on our hands.

00:37:29
Speaker 3: Yes, Tom, did the Bonnies do something underhanded to get Bob Lanier? Like these times, we always wonder why how did this one end up at this school. Why is this one playing at Kansas State all of a sudden.

00:37:39
Speaker 2: I don't know. Adrian Wojinarowski wasn't at Saint Bonavic for back then too.

00:37:43
Speaker 3: I have to investigate this.

00:37:44
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll do that. How about this day in sports history? Poul a couple right on cue. The LA Lakers retired Kareem Abdul Jabars number thirty three on this date in nineteen ninety. Nineteen sixty eight, Wilt Chamberlain first center in NBA history to lead the league with assists eight point six for the season, and Lebron in two thousand and five the youngest player ever to score fifty in a game at age twenty and eighty days. Nineteen sixty five, Gale Goodrich scored forty two as UCLA beat Michigan to win the second consecutive men's championship. I don't think they had a player over six'. FIVE i Think Gail, goodrich Wold.
