Hey folks, it's Mike Ryan and if
0:03
you're watching our show, you probably know and
0:05
your boy has undergone a little bit
0:07
of a body transformation and I gotta tell
0:09
you Peloton has helped me on my
0:11
fitness journey. It got the ball rolling for
0:13
me because I watched my wife on
0:16
the Peloton. She takes all these great classes.
0:18
She has her favorite instructors. I listen
0:20
to the music. I'm a big music guy.
0:22
It gets me fired up. Makes me
0:24
want to take part in this fitness phenomenon
0:26
known as Peloton. Peloton offers a variety
0:28
of challenging classes, from four -week strength building
0:30

along the way. I know I

0:47
my office, sometimes I can put on

your power with Peloton at OnePeloton.com. Now's
1:02
a good time to remember where Tequila's
1:04
story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo
1:07
invented Tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing
1:09
here, Cuervo? Cuervo. Anytime someone says
1:11
Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do
1:13
know that to be true, but
1:15
even during and reads like Cuervo. I
1:17
think he could lay out, especially
1:19
for one of our great partners. Sweet,
1:21
delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has
1:23
stayed true to its roots. The same
1:25
family, the same land, the same
1:27
passion. Cuervo. So, enjoy the tequila that
1:29
started it all. Cuervo. Cuervo. The
1:31
tequila that invented tequila. Ruximo, Cuervo.com.
1:33

2:02
Greg, just a question. May seem random
2:04
to you. Who's more handsome? Andrew Hawkins
2:06
or Method Man? I
2:08
had never considered that in my life.
2:10
I'm gonna abstain until I see a
2:12
photo. Excellent work on your feet. That's
2:15
why he's the tap dancer that he
2:17
is, an improv artist all known to
2:19
all. Which do you know what they
2:21
look like less? Actually, I did improv
2:23
in my acting class and slayed like
2:25
everybody would. Christopher will tell you. You
2:27
introduced Wu -Tang Clan via song in
2:29
Las Vegas. Right. At Circa. Yeah. So
2:31
you know what Method Man looks like.
2:33
Right. I don't know Walter... Walter
2:36
yeah Walter who no, what's
2:38
his name Walter Hawkins Andrew? I
2:40
don't know him. I'm sorry.
2:42
You're in the same stable. That's
2:44
uh Wow that one poorly.
2:46
I'm sorry former Brown's receiver Mogul.
2:48
No, don't know Walter Hawkins.
2:50
No Ask him if he knows
2:52
who you he works with
2:54
us. Why would he he's a
2:56
he's a because he's our
2:58
teammate he works shows. Sorry. I
3:01
know everybody He's right
3:03
about that. I mean he's right. He
3:05
can't know everybody. Can't know everybody. This is
3:07
this is a revelation. You don't know
3:09
what Andrew Hawkins looks like. He has
3:11
no idea what we're talking about. Walter
3:13
Hawkins. I thought you said Walter. Andrew
3:16
Hawkins is a former Browns receiver. Okay,
3:18
I don't have a nice career. He's
3:20
been doing shows with us for months.
3:23
Years. Yeah, he's been in
3:25
this series for years. I doubt
3:27
that, but I apologize to Andrew. He
3:29
has worked with us for years.
3:31
To be fair, not on a Greg
3:33
Cody Tuesday or Wednesday. Thank you.
3:35
Very true. I've never met him. I've
3:37
never shared air with him. I now
3:39
see him. He's a good -looking man.
3:41
Okay. Found a very well -trimmed beard.
3:43
Is he better looking than Method
3:45
Man? I wouldn't say that. Oh,
3:47
wow. So we're just hope for two now.
3:49
Walter Hawkins. I'm putting you down for math. Where
3:51
are we on George Clooney? Where are we
3:53
on Clooney? There's an update. There's
3:55
an update. And this is a segment
3:57
I like to call Mike was right. I
3:59
love those. So do you
4:01
want to do it as a victory lap? No,
4:03
no, no, no, no, especially. Do I have
4:05
to? Don't make me. I don't want to.
4:08
I don't want to pretend I'm running. So
4:10
George Clooney, who has a dye
4:12
job but is famously salt and pepper
4:14
guy, a guy owns the grade
4:16
look. Everyone here yesterday was having a
4:18
go for him, not considering that,
4:20
hey, George Clooney is doing this for
4:22
a role. So
4:24
here is him given an interview
4:26
to Gail King talking about
4:28
the dye job in question. I
4:31
have to take a moment, looking at you with the dark
4:33
hair. I know it's not good. I didn't
4:35
say it wasn't good. Oh, it's good. But it's
4:37
drawing to me. I wonder what it's like for
4:39
you when you get up in the morning and
4:41
you look. By now, I'm sure you're used to
4:43
it. I'm not used to it. You never get
4:45
used to it. You don't. Listen, I started getting
4:47
gray It throws me a little bit. Yeah. So
4:50
I've been gray most of my life. So it's
4:52
not my favorite look in my wife. Yes. She
4:54
doesn't, she thinks it's funny. What do
4:56
your children say? Well, they laugh
4:58
at it because Honestly, nothing makes you
5:00
look older than being 63. It's
5:04
genuinely bizarre to
5:06
have somebody who's been
5:08
a sex symbol
5:11
for the last 30
5:13
years in this
5:15
country be uncomfortable because
5:17
he people are
5:19
able to mock him as not
5:21
attractive. I mean, where are we in
5:23
life if everyone's having a go
5:25
at George Clooney's appearance? Like,
5:27
really? This guy could have
5:30
perennially been sexiest man on the planet for
5:32
several years running. He's a charming devil. Even
5:34
look at how self -deprecating he is there, even
5:36
with I might have just fallen in love
5:38
with dyed hair George Clooney, because I've long
5:40
since been in love with Silver Fox George
5:42
Clooney. He looks like a museum piece. He
5:44
looks like he's made of wax because of
5:46
the hair. He needs a little wispy mustache
5:48
to go with it. It's like when people
5:50
do those viral stunts where they're like, we
5:52
pretended to be homeless for a day to
5:54
see how people, it's like George Clooney's pretending
5:56
to be ugly. And now he's living his
5:58
life as someone who's not hot. And it's,
6:00
wow, he's like, this is terrible. Reminds me
6:02
of my dad. Well Bill
6:04
Cody when when I was like a
6:06
teenager and he was aging he's like
6:08
he's in his 50s or whatever He
6:11
had really gray hair, okay? He was the
6:13
kind of guy who it would be totally
6:15
gray one day and then you would see
6:17
my dad the next day and he would
6:19
have a shiny jet black hair. That was
6:21
my dad. Your dad. That was my father.
6:23
Your dad would like stun me with his
6:25
eyebrows. No. Listen,
6:28
my mother was mortified because
6:30
Papi during his heyday
6:32
leadership days would go from
6:35
straight gray to straight
6:37
black from one day to the next every
6:39
six months or so. Yeah, you can't
6:41
do that. You can't go like night to
6:43
day. You got to either stay on
6:45
top of it or progress. Like that's shocking.
6:47
It's like, remember when Vince McMahon came
6:49
out of hiding? She's like, whoa, why
6:51
does he look like he's about to
6:53
welcome you into a haunted mansion? Yeah,
6:55
my dad loved Grecian formula was the
6:57
name of the product. And the funniest
6:59
part was that Nobody would say anything
7:01
like he wouldn't explain his altered appearance.
7:03
No, it could be spoken. It couldn't
7:06
be spoken. What's buried was it? What
7:08
is it with men of that generation?
7:10
I've never seen my grandfather. He's I
7:12
think 84. I've never seen him with
7:14
a gray hair So I think he's
7:16
got natural black hair the entire time.
7:18
I don't know. He
7:20
went to the hospital. Mike's
7:22
father has a perfect head of hair
7:24
that doesn't have a gray hair in it.
7:26
It's got some gray on the sideburns.
7:28
But no, my dad is often accused of
7:30
dying his hair. And I'd be all
7:32
over that too. I've been trying to prove
7:34
this one for a long time. No,
7:36
not the case, although lots of Botox. The
7:39
Latin man, though, there's something happening
7:41
here with the Latin man. Greg
7:43
can go from. I
7:45
think your mom has probably been frustrated
7:47
by a couple of times where your dad
7:50
has let it go to gray and
7:52
then sharply goes rust after that That McMahon
7:54
photo is always shocking. You cannot come
7:56
out of hiding looking like that. That seems
7:58
natural. It's the mustache. You cannot come
8:00
out of hiding looking like that. mean Greg
8:02
Williams did it too though like that
8:04
may be the way to come out of
8:06
hiding. You can't come out of hiding
8:09
innocent of crimes with all of that. It
8:11
can't be that. Thin mustache that's the
8:13
key. It's been suggested on the internet that
8:15
this thin Mustache was put in place
8:17
to cover up a botch of some sort
8:19
because if you've seen him since he's
8:21
Done away with the mustache and he looks
8:23
much better than he did now like
8:26
if you look around the lip It is
8:28
a little puffy. I think that this
8:30
was a disguise distract you from what was
8:32
going on underneath Yeah, I see that
8:34
lopsided mustache Stan Van Gundy
8:36
apologizes profusely from a hotel in
8:38
Houston. I told him he has nothing
8:40
to apologize for. We have not
8:42
had better segments than that recently. In
8:44
the middle of it though, because
8:47
I'm trying to reach
8:49
Stan Van Gundy and we've
8:51
discombobulated him, I
8:54
believe we just
8:56
witnessed Stan Van Gundy's
8:58
worst public out
9:00
of touch moment. in
9:02
the history of out of touch moments. I
9:04
thought you were gonna say that's what he
9:06
apologized for when you started saying he apologized.
9:08
I was like oh okay I'm glad he
9:10
like thought about it for a few seconds
9:12
and was like yeah that was crazy it's
9:14
much better to get fired with millions of
9:17
dollars than what the vast majority of people
9:19
get which is a swift kick in the
9:21
ass out the door. If if Samson had
9:23
merely said what Stan Van Gundy was saying.
9:25
He might not have been invited back.
9:27
Oh, please. Yes, he would. OK. Well,
9:29
he said things similar. But even Samson
9:31
texted me afterwards. said way worse. Samson
9:34
texted me afterwards. He's like, I've never
9:36
even thought that. That is like so
9:38
crazy. So we even asked him, have
9:40
you ever been fired from a job
9:42
where you haven't been paid millions of
9:44
dollars? And he cited Wisconsin. And
9:46
we did some research. He apparently
9:48
had four years left on a five
9:50
year deal when he was fired
9:52
from Wisconsin. All of the articles in
9:54
the trip are paywalled and I
9:56
can't find a exact number But it
9:58
I'm assuming they paid out as
10:01
contracts. So maybe it wasn't millions but
10:03
now I don't want to be
10:05
toned deaf to the shame that comes
10:07
with being fired like I've never
10:09
had to deal with shams tweeting out
10:11
that I've been fired and then
10:13
people like yet Well knock on wood
10:15
but There's that where you get
10:17
a nice little multi -million dollar compensate
10:19
the compensation package or you know the
10:22
shame of your family leaving you, and
10:24
not being able to afford a roof
10:27
over your head, or heat in the
10:29
winter, or we have to give up
10:31
the dog because I can't pay for
10:33
the dog's food anymore, or
10:35
asking a friend for a ride for
10:37
work, or explaining this gap
10:39
in your resume when you're trying
10:41
to get another job. I
10:44
mean, there is no
10:46
comparison. A
10:48
couple of things. First of all, I thought
10:50
Stan Van Gundy was calling to apologize
10:52
for his take, that reading a book when
10:54
you haven't read a book is sort
10:56
of weird. But in this case, you
10:59
know what? I agree with everything Stan Van
11:01
Gundy said. I think when you're fired, and
11:03
luckily I've never been fired, I imagine that
11:05
when you're fired you don't go first to
11:07
well at least I'm still making a lot
11:09
of money you go first to the ego
11:11
blow and to the shame and to the
11:13
embarrassment and maybe maybe to the anger if
11:15
you don't think you deserve to be because
11:18
you don't have to it doesn't have to
11:20
be the first thing you think about because
11:22
if you're in one of these extremely lucrative
11:24
jobs it's probably not something you think about
11:26
And that's the luxury of being fired with
11:28
one of these high paying jobs. I am
11:30
going to have to make Stan Van Gundy.
11:32
I'm going to make fun of him when
11:34
I talk to him because I do understand
11:36
how everyone heard that the same way I
11:39
did with, oh poor Mike Budenholzer. Now he
11:41
has to listen to us say he's not
11:43
a good coach. By the way,
11:45
I was saying he wasn't a good coach when
11:47
he won Coach of the Year. He won
11:49
61 games in Atlanta, and I didn't believe he
11:51
was a good coach. He won, he won Giannis,
11:53
the only championship he's gonna ever win him,
11:55
and I don't believe he's a good coach. Someone
11:57
please fire me and tell me I'm a bad
11:59
coach. I want to be a fired college
12:01
football coach. So bad. Tell me I suck right
12:03
about me on the Reddit message boards. I
12:05
don't care. Bad last name for a coach. Bad
12:08
last name for a coach. Yeah, you can't
12:10
be a budden holzer and expect to go through
12:12
life's success. All right. So, I
12:14
think he's been pretty successful. Put it on
12:16
the poll at Lebatard Show. Can you be
12:18
named Budenholzer and be successful? But
12:20
I want to go back for a second,
12:22
just quickly. Stan
12:24
sounded out of touch as a
12:26
competitionaholic who's saying, it's such a
12:28
great shame to be fired, to
12:30
be told by everybody, ridiculed, you're
12:32
bad at your job, you failed,
12:34
you failed you and your friends.
12:36
But for him not to understand, I'm
12:39
going to lose my pet. Mike
12:41
Ryan Mike Ryan created concocted a
12:43
scenario where someone has been fired and
12:45
can no longer afford to have
12:47
a pet Hold on. a Greg Cody
12:50
Wednesday. So we have to clarify
12:52
you mean a an animal not a
12:54
fart. Yeah, that's a good point
12:56
Jess Jess an excellent point. Thank you
12:58
a pet versus right no So
13:00
Mike Ryan said I I want I
13:02
saw a story I want to
13:04
give you guys some numbers here and
13:06
Lewis Riddick sign his beard is
13:08

13:10
him he looks Like a lethario. I'm
13:13
sorry, I broke into programming there. He
13:15
did, but I'm looking at him now. No,
13:17
he is absolutely. I need a spray
13:19
bottle like you're an animal and I just
13:22
stop doing that. Mike today is going
13:24
to watch more ESPN than he's watched in
13:26
a long time because Kevin Clark and
13:28
Fine Bomb are coming up here soon. But
13:31
you guys have derailed me a
13:33
little bit. What are you laughing about,
13:35
Chris Coding? The watch. Lewis
13:39
Riddick is distracting. Yeah, it derailed
13:41

17:32
you back on the subject of NBA coaches because
17:34
the athletic put out there they do this thing
17:36
every year where they get a bunch of people
17:38
to vote on like most overrated player and it's
17:41
it's like other NBA players voting on it and
17:43
one of the questions that they asked there were
17:45
73 players that voted on this and said aside
17:47
from your own current coach who is the worst
17:49
coach in the league so I was reading all
17:51
of the results to all these questions last night
17:53
to Lehman and I got to this one and
17:55
I was like I don't know who this person
17:57
is so They must be the worst coach, because
17:59
I've never heard of them, and I said their
18:02
name to him, and he watches a ton of
18:04
basketball, and he's like, I've never heard of this
18:06
man in my life. But do you guys know
18:08
who Brian Keefe is? No. No.
18:10
No, I don't know who Brian Keefe is.
18:12
Does anybody? No. No. Who
18:14
is Brian Keefe? Apparently he's the head coach
18:16
of the Wizards. What? He must be really
18:18
bad at that. He must be really bad
18:20
at doing that. But when he loses his
18:22
job, he's not gonna be talking to his
18:24
wife saying, I think we need to take
18:27
our daughter out of ballet. Say rich guy. I
18:29
want to run some numbers by you
18:31
guys as Mike Ryan and thank you
18:33
for the clarification Jess It is not
18:35
a pet as in the Greg Cody
18:37
household where they refer to farts as
18:40
the letting of a pet It's the
18:42
actual loss of a pet which is
18:44
where Mike Ryan lost me and went
18:46
a bridge too far However an article
18:48
that I read okay about a pill
18:50
and there a lot of ethical questions
18:52
around it It's called loyal it can
18:54
extend the life of your pets And
18:56
when they did ran some numbers,
18:58
I was surprised by a couple
19:01
of things. First of all, 47
19:03
% of American households have a
19:05
dog. stunned by that. I
19:07
did not think it would be that high.
19:09
At Levitard's show, 47 % under or over
19:11
American households that have a dog. That's
19:13
a Whits and Wagers question. Have you guys
19:15
ever played the board game Whits and
19:18
Wagers? I'm not even familiar. Oh my god,
19:20
it's so great, Dan. It's a game
19:22
where there's like these questions and every answer
19:24
is a number. So it's like, what
19:26
percentage of American families own a dog? What
19:28
percentage of Americans have tattoos? What year
19:30
was the Sistine Chapel painted? Like things like
19:32
that where it has to be an
19:35
answer. That's a number. And then you write
19:37
down your guess on a little whiteboard
19:39
and you put it all in the middle.
19:41
Everyone lines it up from smallest to
19:43
biggest. And then you wager on whose number
19:45
is closest. And once you get
19:47
going, you get a lot of money in the banking,
19:49
you start wagering more and more. And you're like, I
19:51
know what year the Mona Lisa was painted. I'm betting
19:54
the house on this. But you can also
19:56
put a fake number and try to get people off the
19:58
set, because if my sister's playing with me and I'm she
20:00
knows I know my art history, and whatever number I
20:02
put down's gonna be close, I'm gonna put down a
20:04
different number, then we can play mind games with each
20:06
other. Oh, it's the greatest game on earth, but this
20:08
pet question was one of them. It's
20:11
sounds ridiculous. It is
20:13
ginormous, and the other thing, that was in it,
20:15
how much do you think a gallon of
20:17
milk weighs? How much do you think it weighs?
20:19
Weighs? I know. Go ahead. Three pounds. Wrong.
20:21
You would have lost. I would have wagered the
20:23
over and I would have won because it's
20:25
like eight pounds. Really? It's crazy. This
20:27
game blows my mind consistently. That's
20:29
insane. Anyways, that's a plug for my second
20:32
favorite game behind monopoly deal, so you're welcome everyone.
20:34
But there are families that if you lose
20:36
their job, that is one more mouth to feed.
20:38
That service that feeds my dog
20:41
is on autopay. You know, you're
20:43
going to look at every single
20:45
itemized thing in your bill and
20:47
look at where to cut, and
20:49
some people will settle on, yeah,
20:51
I can't have my dog anymore.
20:53
The other number that surprised me,
20:55
and again, it's an ethical debate
20:57
because the pill has not been
20:59
FDA approved, but it is lengthening
21:02
the lives of pets. This
21:05
particular pill, some of
21:07
the testing that they've done,
21:09
76 % of pet owners,
21:12
three quarters of pet
21:14
owners, would go into
21:17
debt for their pet. What
21:20
are you laughing about? Just
21:22
the rhyme. You know, was great. Just
21:25
the rhyme? Yeah, and the rhythm
21:27
you said it, would go into
21:29
debt. for their pet three quarters
21:31
of pet owners and I'm assuming
21:33
birds are in here too I
21:35
love animals I love animals that
21:37
way but debt Mike Ryan is
21:39
concocting the scenario where you have
21:41
to throw your pet in the
21:43
street because you've been fired from
21:45
your job you could either give
21:47
it to someone else or take
21:49
it to a pound I'm sure
21:51
they'll be fine I actually took
21:53
that pill myself because I got
21:55
I got a dog in me
21:57
that dog well if you It
22:01
would have been so good if you
22:03
nailed it. You have a dog in you.
22:05
So and at very important. You have
22:08
a dog inside of you. Major
22:11
penalty five minutes.
22:13
Scrooving comedy. You can
22:16
hear his confidence. I heard
22:18
in your ear them say liar.
22:21
Still got his headphones are so loud. I
22:23
know they are loud. Where's the button
22:25
to turn him was so unfamiliar with the
22:27
term that he's like that surely has
22:29
to be improper grammar. He corrected
22:31
the grammar just enough to ruin the
22:33
joke. I have a dog in me.
22:35
I have a dog presently in me.
22:38
There is a dog that is fully inside me. Get
22:41
out of here. Yes. How
22:43
do you not know how penalties work? Yes. Five
22:46
minutes. I'll
22:54
tell you what happened, please
22:56
get the replay Chris don't wonder
22:58
he doesn't know how to
23:00
exit the studio I like that
23:02
there's some like scenario in
23:04
an alternate universe where like Roy
23:06
and Jeremy have never worked
23:09
on the same day and they've
23:11
never heard of each other
23:13
Jessica Some of your coworkers
23:15
yesterday got together for a party,
23:17
and I'm sorry I did not make
23:19
it. I wished to make it,
23:21
but I was told very late in
23:23
the proceedings that such a party
23:26
existed, and I missed it in the
23:28
slack. I don't know where it was in the
23:30
slack. Who attended that
23:32
moved you? The people
23:34
that had to drive a far
23:36
distance moved me, because I would not
23:38
have done the same for them.
23:42
a hard drive. Some people were on a red -eye that morning.
23:44
Some people showed up off a red
23:46
-eye from Vegas, and they looked pretty
23:49
tired. And I said, hmm, I'm
23:51
surprised you're here. But then I realized this is
23:53
a hair of the dog situation. You got to
23:55
keep it rolling. Oh, yeah. As soon as you
23:57
hit the pillow. a PK can't fix, right? Little
23:59
TSO, PK3. Little
24:02
TSO. But I
24:04
was very tired. I was very
24:06
tired. and I definitely
24:08
needed that drink. But I also said, this
24:10
means a lot to me. And
24:12
it was just a normal Tuesday where we could
24:14
drink, but that's all it was. Hey, let's go
24:16
out and have a couple of drinks. I'm like,
24:18
I need to be here for this, because I
24:20
love drinks. I have a dog
24:22
inside of me. Just another
24:24
Tuesday in Miami. Were you surprised
24:27
by any of those numbers? 76 %
24:29
of pet owners would go into debt
24:31
for their dog. Would you go
24:33
into debt for Willow? reality
24:36
is, owning a pet is really expensive. If something
24:38
goes wrong, I know Mike's dog had to get
24:40
a really expensive surgery done, and a lot of
24:42
people are in the position where they're like, my
24:44
dog is sick, they go to the vet, the
24:46
vet's like, we need to do this
24:48
emergency surgery if you don't, your dog's gonna die, or
24:50
your cat's gonna die, and it's gonna cost 10
24:52
grand, and maybe you don't have that money just laying
24:54
around, most people don't, and yeah, I could easily
24:57
see why you'd go into debt paying for something, especially
24:59
when it's a life or death situation, you care
25:01
about your pet, and you don't know what to do.
25:04
for my dog who had an
25:06
autoimmune disease, and it was life
25:09
saving, but she got it within the
25:11
first eight months of her life. It
25:13
turned out to be great because she's
25:15
lived a happy and full life there,
25:17
but it was 10 grand to save
25:19
my dog's life. In a single income
25:21
family, it wasn't easy. So bad to
25:23
get fired because you might lose your
25:25
pet. Yeah. Greg, how is it, Chris?
25:28
And you helped me with this because
25:30
we have not done enough of a
25:32
job today promoting your father's exactos and
25:34
your father's mock draft and your father's
25:36
podcast, the Greg Cody show
25:38
featuring Greg Cody. But you have
25:40
seen, Chris, you've been front row
25:42
seat witness to today's show through
25:44
Stan and Samson. careened live out
25:46
of control for a long time
25:48
and your dad spun out and
25:50
then he spun out and tried
25:52
to leave the studio didn't know
25:54
how the penalty box worked anymore
25:56
and tried to leave through a
25:58
door as if he didn't understand
26:00
how doors push the door called
26:02
Andrew Hawkins Walter Hawkins It's not
26:04
you spun out nothing great for
26:06
you in fairness Andrew Hawkins a
26:08
generic name Okay, if it's a
26:10
if you have a particularly unusual
26:12
name a more apt to place
26:14
a face than if you have
26:16
a name john smith or you
26:19
know the hawkins is i only
26:21
know one other hot andrew hawkins
26:23
is a very good looking man
26:25
so smith a man They both
26:27
look like they could be people
26:29
sexiest man of the year. Okay,
26:31
very good. I'm glad we finally
26:33
closed the loop on that. One
26:35
thing that I wanted to
26:37
do here today before we got
26:39
out of here is to
26:41
remember and celebrate because the sports
26:43
machine can move very fast
26:45
and it seems, I don't think
26:47
I have this wrong, more
26:49
often than not, we're talking around
26:52
here about somebody who died. Don't
26:55
know if it's more often than
26:57
not I would I would I
26:59
would doubt that it's it's too
27:02
often We're more often than we
27:04
ever have we're stopping to take
27:06
a somber tone about somebody who
27:08
left the mark on us in
27:10
the sports world when Mike Patrick,
27:12
during a time in football when
27:14
it was growing in this country,
27:16
when ESPN had the kind of
27:18
signature voice for 18 straight years
27:21
on Sunday Night Football because ESPN
27:23
was getting into the football game,
27:25
making it bigger and bigger in
27:27
America, one of the signature voices
27:29
was Mike Patrick. And
27:31
quietly... a great broadcaster for 20
27:33
years on Sunday night football.
27:35
Somehow, I would say, escaped much
27:37
of the withering criticism that
27:39
will come down on the head
27:41
of every broadcaster today, including
27:43
Al Michaels, because, oh, your tone's
27:46
not good there. Your energy's
27:48
not good. You sound like an
27:50
old man. Get out of
27:52
the way, old man. Mike Patrick,
27:54
universal praise, dies at the
27:56
age of 80. And Mike, I
27:58
don't know what you associate
28:00
with him, but what I associate
28:02
with him is talking to
28:04
him, hearing his dulcet voice, and
28:06
then being surprised when he
28:08
said what a rigorous smoker he
28:10
was. Like that just
28:13
being taken aback, just assuming
28:15
that he would be somebody
28:17
who would always protect those
28:19
blessed pipes. I loved
28:21
Mike Patrick on ACC basketball. Did a
28:23
lot of great memorable games with
28:25
Dick Vitale. I saw Dick Vitale posted
28:27
a tribute to Mike Patrick. When
28:29
he was the voice of Sunday Night
28:32
Football, paired with Joe Thysman, and
28:34
I know people had some feelings and
28:36
they were replaced. But for me, that
28:38
was when I was in high school watching
28:40
Sunday Night. football and it was Markey game
28:43
and he was a voice attached to it
28:45
and he was one of my favorites. I
28:47
love that broadcast team. I thought they were
28:49
hilarious. I love Mike Patrick style of doing
28:51
those games. So I was made very sad
28:53
by that. I know he hadn't been doing
28:55
it for a while. And
28:57
yeah, it's just another reminder that
28:59
the older that you get, the
29:01
more of these people that have
29:04
had influence on your life, on
29:06
your career even are going to
29:08
go. Do you know how rare
29:10
it is these days when criticism
29:12
is the main sport? to be
29:14
a broadcaster that can live your
29:17
lifespan and then die and you
29:19
will not hear very much of
29:21
a bad word as any of
29:23
that was happening. Like even even
29:25
Joe Buck, like a child prodigy
29:27
is viewed as someone that, oh,
29:30
he doesn't root for my team,
29:32
or he's partial. If you're always
29:34
broadcasting the games, I just, I
29:36
don't think that people understand how
29:38
difficult it is to be someone
29:40
who is quietly professional in the
29:43
broadcast space, never to look at
29:45
me, so it never becomes Gus
29:47
Johnson, or whatever it is has
29:49
personality that evolves the game, but.
29:52
doesn't stay totally out of the way
29:54
of the game because Mike Patrick was
29:56
sort of like Vern Lundquist in this
29:58
space where you're like, oh my god,
30:01
his voice reminds me of a Saturday
30:03
afternoon or a Sunday night raspy. It
30:05
seems like he's got a drink in
30:07
his hand. It sounds like he might
30:09
be wearing a... A broadcaster colorful broadcaster
30:11
coat and he might I might hear
30:13
the tinkle of a glass of ice
30:15
He's calling Sunday night foot. There might
30:17
be a reason for that There might
30:19
be a reason that that type of
30:21
broadcaster that reminds you that reminds you
30:24
of hey They could be doing this
30:26
with a cocktail in their hands. It's
30:28
because they probably were back then because
30:30
it was more acceptable And we're never
30:32
getting those guys back guys with that
30:34
vibe don't exist anymore Who's allowed to
30:36
skate now? I'd say this I'm asking
30:38
you guys this question genuinely who's allowed
30:40
to skate as a broadcaster who lives
30:42
an entire lifespan on a stage as
30:44
large as something like 18 years on
30:47
Sunday night football because you guys saw
30:49
how the fangs came out for Dick
30:51
Vitale and Lee Corso. Like, you know, Mike
30:54
Patrick bowed out before the criticism
30:56
got to him. No, I don't
30:58
think so. I remember there was
31:00
a website that, uh, you
31:02
know, fired Joe Morgan was a blog that that
31:04
popped up when I was in high school. wasn't
31:07
so much social media, but it was
31:09
these blogs. And Mike Patrick got replaced from
31:11
Sunday Night Football because people felt a
31:13
certain way about him. And then as a
31:15
Simon started getting worse and worse as
31:17
he got older, and then social media came
31:19
along and then you realize, oh, people
31:22
don't feel the way that I feel about
31:24
Mike Patrick, who I thought was generally
31:26
awesome. And I just miss the time where,
31:28
yeah, people had their opinions maybe, but
31:30
they weren't just totally pushed into those opinions
31:32
because of social media just trying to
31:34
gather steam behind a take. Like,
31:36
I thought broadcasting when I was growing up
31:38
was amazing. I didn't have any bad opinions
31:40
about anybody. Hell, man, I thought Phil Sims
31:42
was good. And now you open up
31:44
the internet and you find out, like, wait, no one
31:46
thinks anyone is good? This is kind of bullshit. Is
31:49
that where we are? Like, no one's any
31:51
good now. Noah Eagle
31:53
is getting a lot of praise, right? Yeah,
31:55
but he also gets shit, too. Ernie Johnson. Who's
31:58
above reproach? So I think that there's
32:00
like a few guys in... think Buck is
32:03
like coming out of the other side
32:05
like he's not nearly as polarizing because now
32:07
he's been around for over a generation
32:09
There's a like the people that are taste
32:11
makers right now work kids growing up
32:13
recognizing that Joe Buck is a soundtrack of
32:15
a big game He's had like a
32:17
I don't give a shit vibe for the
32:19
last like six years that I think
32:21
has resonated mm -hmm, and I think that
32:23
Harlan Joe Tess Bobbushu
32:25
isn't on the hockey side, Joe Buck.
32:27
Iron Eagle. Like Spiroditas? Well,
32:29
no one can say Moe Alley Cox
32:31
the way that Spiroditas can. you. One o
32:33
'clock window, Moe Alley Cox! That's
32:35
Spiroditas. But yeah, there's a
32:37
few guys there. I've
32:40
just lost so many Moe Alley Cox
32:42
overs 13 and a half yards. Because he
32:44
catches a 12 -yard touchdown. That's the thing
32:46
you gotta bet the any time. Can
32:48
we put it on the pole? Can anyone
32:50
scream? Touchdown Moe Alley
32:52
Cox the way that Spirodita can. Just
32:55
do. You're getting one. Just do. But it might
32:57
be over seven and a yards. You're gonna get one
32:59
for six yards? a touchdown, though. Oh,
33:02
the FC South. at one
33:04
o 'clock Windows Spiro beautiful. It's a
33:06
great day. like Colts Raiders one o
33:08
'clock. They got to come over to
33:10
this side. Voices that belong in
33:12
time zones. Spiro Ditas one o 'clock
33:14
AFC South. Get me there, pal. Ernie
33:16
Johnson is above reproach, right? Everyone
33:18
likes like if I were
33:20
to say highest of the Q
33:23
ratings anywhere, not going to
33:25
cause any polarizations. What's
33:27
the top of the food chain on
33:29
I like just hearing this person around
33:31
sports? I have no bad opinions of
33:33
him. I don't think he roots against
33:35
my team I don't think he's an
33:37
asshole. I don't think he's an egomaniac.
33:39
I don't dislike his opinions He's just
33:41
a nice man on television a nice
33:43
person on television. I think Bob Lee
33:45
was like that Yeah, I think Mike
33:47
Torrico is sort of like that just
33:49
benign in a good way not polarizing
33:51
very professional You'll never hear a
33:53
woman on this list because I was going to say
33:55
Doris Burke, but Doris Burke. But
33:58
she's right. She's right that
34:00
you by virtue of simply being
34:02
a woman talking about sports,
34:04
she could be all of these
34:06
people. And it's polarizing when
34:08
it need not be Chris Whittingham.
34:12
Steve Martin also had that poll come back, by the way.
34:14
Does he suck at everything except soccer? At
34:17
