Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio coming to you live
(00:24):
from green Bay, Wisconsin. My good friend Jess Miller's place
at the bar on Holmgren which is on Holmegren Way,
named after Mike Holmgren, who is the head coach of
the Green Bay Packers. When they last won a Super Bowl,
they won thirteen titles. And of course we are in
the shadows Mbofield, which is not only home of the Packers,
(00:45):
it's home to the next three nights, not tonight, next
three nights the NFL Draft will be in green Bay,
Wisconsin and things you did not think would happen Draft
and Green Bay, Wisconsin at the same time, especially in April, right,
and it's a it's a weird one buyer you can
speak to this having being from Wisconsin, which is like
April is this is classic spring, right. You don't know
(01:08):
if you're gonna get up and it's gonna rain. You
don't know if it's gonna get up and be sunny.
You don't know if it's gonna be windy. And if
you don't like how it is, as everyone in the
Midwest says, you don't like the weather, wait fifteen minutes,
it will change.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
It is that that.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I don't want to say Russian roulette, but it is
that weather roulette of of what was what was the
expression from Forrest Goo Lava Lago Box at Chilcool. You
never know what you're gonna get, right, You do not
know what you're gonna get weatherwise.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Fair.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yeah, it could be in the seventies, could rain. Golf
courses are open. You can't play every day. I gotta
do your tornado warning drills and the schools, the whole deal. Yeah,
it's all over the map.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
By the way, we have both of we have two
of those today or actually three of them. Golf courses
are open. It rained this morning, it's supposed to be
seventy this afternoon. You're welcome. That's northeast Wisconsin weather. Although
if you try and play golf you're gonna get it's
gonna be a long round because you're not gonna get
much role on that one at one at all. We're
(02:07):
gonna talk about the Lakers and and JJ's tirade last
night in their win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. But I
was thinking of something because I was on with Dan
Patrick earlier today and Dan and the Danets were cool
enough to come by last night. We had a big
event in town raising money for my basketball program, but
they're also broadcasting here live from the Bar, and Dan
(02:31):
was very caught up on the fact that I said
that Caitlin Clark had a flaw in her shot, and
again we went through the tweet. It was like May first,
I got the job May fifteenth. But I'm struggling with
why I'm supposed to not point out that here one
of the like the most discussed player in the history
(02:54):
of women's basketball and the landscape of sports. I would
say she's one of the five most discussed fleets in
all of sports. As somebody that has a deep background
in the sport of basketball, why I'm not supposed to say, hey,
she and she's fixed her form since had had developed
quite the habit, especially off the dribble of shooting the
(03:16):
ball starting it on the left side of her face,
which by my estimation was because she was shooting from
further out she needed it for added strength, and she
was kind of slinging the ball a little bit, which
caused her three point percentages to go down. And of
course they've reworked it, and now I heard shots, not
Klay Thompson or Steph Curry, but it's.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
A lot more pure. So I guess.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Here's here's a little bit of exchange earlier today on
the Dan Patrick Show. If I couldn't physically shoot a basketball,
I wouldn't have been recruited by the number of schools
that was recruited by The shooting issues didn't stop us
from winning.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
And oh yeah, by the.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Way, they didn't actually occur in terms of fundamental flaws.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
But look if.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
Out there that's my job, Oh it doesn't the head coach.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
It wasn't as the head coach. That was when I'm
just a radio host and basketball analyst. Go check the
time stamp on it.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Give me the time stamp on the Okay, that was?
That was.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
That was before I became the head basketball coach at
Green Bay, And since I've become the head basketball coach,
we talk about the same thing we talked about. Do
we do we fix a guy's shot and change his form,
which you have to strip it back.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Down and then build it back up. You just make
an adjustment to it. Yeah, I think may first, what
day did I get the job?
Speaker 5 (04:28):
Dan?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Thank you?
Speaker 4 (04:30):
So?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
What was my job at the time that I made
the tweet?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Your job was to be a radio host.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
And college basketball analyst? And oh yeah, by the way,
like this is the amazing thing about me. Whether I
like it or don't like it, the reality is that
I do have this unique ability to draw reaction, to
draw reaction.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
You do okay?
Speaker 5 (04:51):
You do?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
So, okay, I just stand by my analysis I shot
so I guess here's the question, Jase, do okay? Because again,
and you searched for the opposite of whatever BS is. Okay,
do you think it's a bad idea to make a
comment on social media about somebody's jump shot?
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Nope, not at all. I think that I listened to
that exchange. I think where Dan came up short in
that exchange, and he didn't press you on the Adam
Schefter one. Either you and I have talked about this
on and off the air. It's not necessarily that you
questioned Schefter for the sax State thing. It was that
you questioned his professional wisard. It's not that you questioned
Caitlin Clark on her jump shot. Your requording was this
(05:37):
needs to be fixed. When do you fix it? There
was an assumption that it needs to be fixed. I
think the wording is what got you in trouble in
both cases.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Why wouldn't need to be fixed. Her shooting numbers are
three point percentages were going down, and that was what
anyone would look at and go, hey, this will allow
you to shoot the ball better, especially going to your
right where she shot the ball, the most part going
to her left because.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
That's where she picked up the basketball.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Again, here's my thing this is, and this is the
point that you know, as I think a lot of
people this year have gotten a chance to listen to
my radio show, somehow that becomes controversial when the rea
I just think that's actually talking about sports. So many
shows are hosted by people who don't know anything about
(06:25):
sports at all.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
They have no clue.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And there's plenty of people on television talking about sports
that they've never played that they have no understanding or noah,
and that does not mean you can't talk about it.
But that's an actual discussion about sports, right, it's a
real thing, like do you fix her form? And you
could say, well, fix is a trigger word and it
means that it's broken, like, okay, it's not where it
(06:49):
needs to be. Do you adjust? Like, I don't think
I need to change the wording, because that's how real
sports people talk.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
And honestly, it it.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Us segue into we'll get to the Lakers discussion, like
this is how real people talk.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
And the issue with narps. Do you know what a narpis? Fired?
Do you know what a narpis.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
I'm gonna guess it's something like never actually really played
or something like that.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
That's actually pretty good. It's a non athletic regular person. Okay,
that's what the college athletes call the regular students.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
They're a NARP.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Right, So what happens is when you have people that
haven't been on a sideline, haven't been in a locker room,
haven't been in a film room, haven't actually been kind
of in the theater of battle, if you will, and
they start talking about that and they hear criticism and.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Like, oh my god, I can't believe you're critical of
Kayln Clark.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
She's the greatest thing ever. She can be great.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
She shot the ball last year when she went into
the WNBA from the left side of her head, and
her number were substantially lower. And as she will fix it,
she will shoot a higher percentage from three. Like that's
a real basketball conversation that people actually have. Just like
when do we have the audio? Just like when a
(08:15):
JJ Reddick got onto his team last night, Take a listen.
This is JJ Reddick. He's coaching the la. Oh, we
can't play it on the air because it's cursing. Right,
He's like laying into his team during the game. Are
you blinking kidding me? You know he does mention the
Lord and Savior's name in vain. Okay, he does all
(08:37):
the things, And you'll have people clutching their pearls saying like,
I can't.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Believe JJ Reddick would ever do such a thing.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
And anybody who's ever been in the theater, ever played
basketball at a high levels like okay, like he played
for Coach K. Do people understand how Coach K talked
to his team and his players. It's not for the
fan of heart. You don't say.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Please, pretty please, will you? Hey when you get a chance,
can you go set a screen for Lebron? Hey?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Thanks great effort there. You know what the most important
thing was. You tried like, that's not how it works.
It's not how it works right now, Look, there's a way.
You have to have the equity with the players. You
can't just lambase them with mfs and all the different
names and words, especially in the NBA where you deal
with growth men that make ten times the money that
you make, that they're way more accomplished and they don't
(09:27):
want to hear it from you.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Right, you have to have the equity with the group.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
But again, this is I actually think those two discussions
fit together well because my background is my dad was
a coach, my brother's a coach. This is how we
talk about sports. This is how real people talk about sports.
And if you're bothered by the fact that she had
and if again in the totality of the tweet she had,
(09:54):
I said, the amount of work it takes to overcome
such a flaw, which is a compliment, and it's real.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
It's just like.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Reggie Miller, No one would ever tell you to shoot
a basketball the way that Reggie Miller shoots a basketball,
except for the fact that he made it a lot right.
But no one would say, hey, what she should do
is shoot the ball with two hands and point him
back towards the basket and have a follow through like
so like, no one teaches that, but he had done
it so much that he could shoot through the flaw
(10:24):
through pure old fashioned work ethic and confidence. So yeah,
I just I think that's I think that's where people
are missing on things more than more than anything.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
This is the best of the Done Dot Leaf Show
on Fox Sports Radio. What How put You?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Doug Gotlieb Show, Fox Sports Radio, coming to you live
from the beautiful city of Green Bay, Wisconsin, the bar
at home Grown Way.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
Man.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
We got some people filling in here.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
That's mostly because Dan Patrick and the dan Nets are
doing a meet and greet here and what about forty
five minutes or so, we're also going to do.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
A cheese curd taste test.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Not sure if you're aware, buyer, can you explain to
people that there's actually two different types of cheese curds
that they don't actually understand because because because right now
Jay Sews's head is spinning and Iowa Sam is like
wait what and I even had that double take.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
There's there's two types.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Of cheese curd right from the raw as opposed to
the deep fried. Is that what you're talking about?
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Yes? Yes, yes, And.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
So there's the The raw runs are squeaky.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
That's what I'm told, right it make sure it squeaks
in your teeth when you eat them.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Yes, correct, there is a similar texture if you have
had day old deep fried cheese curds. Like maybe not exactly,
but yes, there is a squeaky texture that you could
just buy. They're usually just in a plastic, you know,
bag in the grocery store from some sort of dairy
or creamery or whoever produces them. And yeah, you just
put them in the fridge and you can just have
(12:02):
the cheese curds that way.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I prefer the deep fried. I do.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
I don't think anybody does.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Anybody not prefer anything that's deep fried.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
A lot of people like the squeaky curds.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
They do, I think they do.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
But again it's it's a little bit like we've had
this discussion about room temperature water. It may be better
for you, and you may enjoy you think health benefits
from it, but no one sits there and goes like,
you know what I really want is some warm room
temperature water. No, you want ice cold water. It's just
like fried chicken. Like, who doesn't like fried chicken? Now
you may not eat fried chicken. He's like, I don't
(12:36):
want to eat fried food. That's fair, but please don't
tell me it doesn't taste delicious.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Right. It's like every state fair you ever go to.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
They just like, hey, you fried, deep fried twinkies, deep
fried whatever, and they're all amazing.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Yes, yes, Sam Doug.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
Random obscure fact for you that you know that if
you drink cold water year round, your body will burn
approximately twenty calories from warming that water up in your body.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
So so you burn more calorie actually.
Speaker 8 (13:03):
Burn watery yep, but I don't know, like they say
it's bad for you.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
Are you?
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Is this a Wikipedia thing?
Speaker 7 (13:09):
This is something I heard on on the radio, on
news radio.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
If you heard it on radio, then it's absolutely true.
I'm pretty sure it's true.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
It's one of those obscure facts.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I believe it.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Yeah, but it kind of interesting.
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Cold water, I guess not great for your throat, some say,
but it will help you burn calories twenty calories in
about a year.
Speaker 8 (13:28):
So what is that like one bite of a of
a sandwich or something?
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Not really sure.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
It's Doug Gotlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio. We'll we'll
do our fact finding on warm versus cold water and
uh and and the caloric intaking CLOrk burning. We'll also
do a little cheese curd challenge here at some point
in this in this hour of the show. But before
we get to that, let's do something we do every
day every Wednesday. The Wednesday is the middle of the week.
(13:55):
This is the middle of the show. It's the middle
of your day. It's something week called the Midway.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
He's not getting middle, It's time for the Midway.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
It's so funny that Jay Sdu came up with this
topic because last night I was over at the Legacy
Hotel with an awesome bar up on the sixth floor,
and this very topic came up because I was sitting
with the NFL network guys.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Go ahead, Jay Stu with the topic for the Midway.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
I asked the group text, how about the most memorable
first night draft moments on broadcast? Most memorable? What comes
to mine. First, Dan wanted to add a wrinkle to this,
so he wants to open up the possibilities of what
you can discuss in this particular midway.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Okay, Dan, how would you like to open open that up?
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Well?
Speaker 3 (14:50):
I kind of wanted to to say my little piece
on what I love about the NFL Draft broadcast because
I think that there are things within that broadcast that
we sometimes take for granted, and we're going to get
into the moments that we remember, but I think it's
the little things that we have to really cherish, and
(15:13):
the little things such as the graphic changing when a
trade is made. Like there is when the panel, whether
you're watching the NFL network or you're watching ESPN or
you're listening to Fox Sports Radio on TV, when you
see the graphic change or you hear the there's been
(15:35):
a trade, there is There's nothing like it. It is
a in a moment of oh my goodness, what did
they get? Who do they want? What is the deal?
Where did this team go? It's within that draft window.
I absolutely love it when you know that the team
is on the clock and all of a sudden, just
the graphic changes to a different team because of the trade.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
I find that that that's one of the.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Little things that I really really appreciate about the draft.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
There's also that the the the when the pick is in, Yes, right,
I like that pick is.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Right? Is that?
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Is that how it goes that there's that little pick
is in sound whatever Somewhere somebody either made a whole
bunch of money trademarking that thing or doing that. I
think it's for I think ESPN has that. I don't
think it's NFL network. But yes, that that is the
child I'll give you. Can I give you my two
real quick.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
You can, but I want to comment on yours. I
want to say something about yours. The other great thing
about the pick is in is when it happens. So
you know when the clock is winding down that okay,
they got down to the wire that they have to
do it. But when a team does it only two
minutes into their clock or a minute into their clock
doesn't happen often. But then you know that they wanted
(16:50):
the guy, oh, that they were waiting for that person
to fall, that they couldn't wait for the pick to
come in. I do think that sometimes the NFL will
hold on to it or they're in a you know,
in a commercial break, so there's nothing that you could
really do with it, so you have to wait till
they come back to air. But the fact is is
if a team doesn't use their entire allotment of time,
(17:12):
and they do it pretty early.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
They want someone they've been they've been, they've been.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
Waiting, and I love that little thing about it.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Yeah, okay, I I don't think this is arguable. I
have the two in my mind most iconic Draft night
first night of Draft night moments you ready, okay? Number
one is Laramie Tunseel Laramie Tunsil going viral. That was
the first true viral NFL Draft moment, Laramie Tunsell.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
It was a left.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Tackle out of Ole miss and it was in the
very early moments of the draft. If you're watching on
when you had Twitter on, somebody tweeted out a video
of him smoking, doing a bong rip with a gas
mask on, and then taking the gas mask off to
(18:04):
reveal it was Laramie Sunsel, high as a kite, happy
as can be. I don't know anybody who doesn't who
watches the draft, who doesn't wouldn't mark that as one
of the five.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Most poignant moments.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
I agreed.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
The other one is when Aaron Rodgers sat in the
sat in the green room for you know, twenty three
picks till he went what twenty fourth to the packers.
Speaker 7 (18:30):
Is still on his shoulders, yeah, shoulder.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Yeah, so yeah again just watching him and he's sitting
there and you're just like that was there. There have
been other guys that have sat in the green room.
I don't remember there being quarterbacks. I don't remember them
being becoming first bout of Hall of Famers or MVPs.
And I also like, very few do you feel like
(18:55):
outwardly remember that moment, but he does, and he takes
that on everybody. He has been exact revenge for twenty
years ever since.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
There have been players who waited before weren SAP was
a long wait. But I feel that Rogers is the
pinnacle of it. And I think it's obviously because of
how his career turned out everything that the fall that
it was. It wasn't like one to five or one
to ten. I think, I mean it was one and
then it was with Alex Smith, and then it was
everybody else. I think that Rogers is the pinnacle the
(19:22):
poster child of that moment.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
I think when when it happened with Will Webbs. The
small takeaway was that he was put off that he
was waiting that long, But the big takeaway was everyone
thought his girlfriend was hot. And then in the in
the two years since, she's become famous for even more
things with Will Webbs. And I'll just let you google that.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
I'm gonna.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Works at work.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Wait, did they have a sex tape?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Oh my god, yeah, don't do it at worth they Yes, really.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
It puts Kim k and Uh and ray j all
right to shame.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Really did you watch it? In four? K J Stow?
Speaker 5 (20:11):
I was just doing research because I do sports contents
for a job. I had to.
Speaker 8 (20:16):
I had to watch it many times.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Okay, I like I like that one.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
I was, Sam, do you have any memorable I actually
I have another memorable for.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Well, hold on, hold on. I just want to just
want to clarify that is not Jason's submission. That was
That was the piggyback on the Rogers. That was a
side melt. Yes, so he's got he's got his own
that I know. He's ready to hold on, hold on
to unveiled.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
And I think Doug's about to I think Doug's about
to do what we call around here. He's about to
sam up the middle and offer three before I could
offer one.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
You know, you know what, You're right, I'm gonna spam
it up.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
But here's the one content. Now, here's the one difference. Hey, say,
what's the name of the show?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
The Doug got lead?
Speaker 2 (21:02):
There you go show? Okay?
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Do you remember Joe Thomas when he got picked, like
Wisconsin legend, literally on his boat fishing, right on his
boat fishing.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Now I have I fished? Yes? Am I a fisherman? No?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
But if I was, I can't think of a better way.
Nothing says more like he won. Basically won. Every fisherman
ever still remembers that moment. Most of us are football fans.
Remember that moment, right, the one thing you love to
do most You were doing that on your best day
when you're drafted in the first round the NFL Draft.
Unfortunately for him, it was the Cleveland Browns, only team
he ever played for. But still Joe thomas fishing iconic.
Speaker 7 (21:41):
Moment kind of speaks to his personality. I mean, he's
just a laid back guy, just did his job, shows
up he's not trying to go to the you know,
he's just like stayed in Cleveland his whole career. Lunch
pale hard hat. That's Joe Thomas fishing on the weekends.
All right, would you like to go to mind now, Doug,
very much. Let's go to the twenty eighteen draft. The
(22:04):
Philadelphia Eagles had just won their first Super Bowl in
franchise history, and the draft was being held in at
Jerry's World eighteen and T Stadium in Arlington, and up
to announce the forty ninth pick longtime kicker for the
Philadelphia Eager Eagles, David Akers, who kicked for them from
(22:26):
ninety nine to twenty ten, and he retired twenty thirteen,
so he did not get to play for the super
Bowl team. But he came up and he let the
Dallas Cowboys know who the Super Bowl champs are and
where they stand in the pecking order. Tonight, I'm representing
the Philadelphia Eagles and free Chaps divisional Jams.
Speaker 6 (22:50):
Jams. Whoa Chaps, whoa Jams?
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Hey, Dallas, the last time you are the Super Bowl?
Oh what.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Now?
Speaker 7 (23:05):
I love this sound because David Acres walks up and
he looks basically like he works in it or he's
an accountant. He's got kind of a receding hairline, he's
got glasses he doesn't and and his voice shrieks and
kind of splits, and it's just it's great a trolling,
but he's like this big kind of no offense to
David Acres, great kicker. He was kind of a dork
up there, but he trolls so well and they are
(23:26):
booing him throughout, and that pick would actually turn out
to be Dallas Goddard, who won us a second Super
Bowl with the Eagles. So there's one of my favorite moments.
Now you're an Eagles fan us a second super Bowl?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Did I say that?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (23:38):
He did? Oh geez, that's I don't know.
Speaker 8 (23:41):
There's a Freudian slip there.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
I know we got to get to Jason's. But the
thing with you know why Acres did that? Do you
know why he did that?
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Because the year before in Philadelphia, Cowboys great Drew Pearson
did this.
Speaker 6 (23:55):
All right, how about the Cowboys. I want to thank
the Eagle fans for allowing me to have a career.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
In the NFL. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
I am honored as an undrafted free.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Agent to be selected to.
Speaker 9 (24:18):
Meet the Cowboys second round draft pick and on behalf
of the five time world champion Dallas Cowboys took the
fame owner Jimmy Jones, Tem Jones, and.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The Jones families, coach.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
Jason Gary, all the Cowboy players that played before me,
that played with me and played after me. With the
second pick and the sixtieth.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Pick in the.
Speaker 6 (24:47):
Second round, the Dallas Cowboys select defensive back from Colorado.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Should do be Aboo's.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
I forgot about.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (25:00):
Thank you for adding that on. It gives him some context.
Speaker 4 (25:03):
Amazing. That is what a back and forth?
Speaker 7 (25:05):
Which is I think that's the better one, honestly of
the two, just because it was great.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Except for the fact that you know, he trolled the
Eagles and they went out won.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
The Super Bowl the next year. It just didn't cast in,
but great television.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Was It was good television.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
Love moments like that.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Uh, Jase, two, what do you got.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Man, Drew Pearson? That was amazing. That was to talk
about a guy not shying down. I'm going to offer
up this nineteen ninety four of Bill Tobin's running the Colts.
Bill Tobin made a draft pick. Dan knows all the
details I'm sure did it entail Jim Harbaugh something wrong
those lines? Or he sure something? But Bill Tobin made
(25:46):
a pick. Mel Kuiper was on record as hating that pick,
so they put Bill Tobin on camera soon after.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Who in the hell is mel Kiper?
Speaker 6 (25:55):
Went on?
Speaker 10 (25:56):
I mean, here's a guy that criticizes everybody, whoever they take.
He's got the answers to who you should take and
who you shouldn't take. He's never ever put on a jockstrap.
He's never been a player, he's never been a coach,
he's never been a scout, he's never been an administrator,
and all of a sudden he's an expert. He's in
our papers two days ago telling us who we have
to take. We don't have to take anybody that mel
(26:17):
Kuiper says we have to take. Mel Kuiper has no
more credentials to do what he's doing than my neighbor.
And my neighbor's a postman. And he doesn't even have
season take us to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
I mean, that's an old timer, Aldheimer.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
I mean, mel Kuiper's got scoreboard. He's doing what like
his fiftieth draft this year, and I don't remember the
last time Bill Tobin was on camera with us.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Bill tis still with us, Still with us?
Speaker 7 (26:45):
How does Bill know that mel Kuiper's never won a jockstrap?
Come on, now, that's private.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
See an arp, Doug.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
I do remember it was after the Colts took Trevor Elberts,
but I did have to look up on who mel
Kuiper thought they should have taken, and you're mentioned of
Jim Harbaugh.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
It was Trent Dilfer, meaning.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
That dilferd then would have been the quarterback instead of
Jim Harbaugh for the Colts in the mid nineties.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
But that's who mel Kuyper thought that they should take.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Trent Dilfer, who then I believe want to pick later
to the Buccaneers. But trev Alberts from Nebraska now the
Texas A and Mad was the Colts first round pick
in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
It's pretty good, pretty good memories. Anyone else, anyone else
want to offer up a memory.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
I will say this about mel Kuiper, like when you're
watching the broadcast, Like growing up, ESPN was the only
avenue for us to watch, So you become connected to Kuyper,
and you come become connected to Chris Berman. Like those
you can put whoever you want in the middle of
those two. Those two are book ending it. I'm watching
the draft. I don't watch ESPN now because Berman's not
(27:54):
on the draft. But I also feel that the NFL
Networks product is better, not only Woul Daniel Jeremiah In
Charles Davis and what they've done, but also I think
Mike Mayock really took the torch and carried it and
gave true breakdown of these NFL draft prospects, and to me,
(28:14):
that's what changed the experience. So I will watch for
the certain faces, and I think that Daniel Jerremya has
done a great job. Charles Davis is so well versed
in these players as well. Like it does matter who
you have on set when you're watching that broadcast and
if you're listening to us on Fox Sports A Radio,
I mean Joe Douglas, Jay Glazer, LeVar Arrington. Yeah, that's
(28:35):
pretty good, pretty good analysis on how you're going to
break down the pick, So it does matter. I feel
that Kiper opened the door, but I feel that like
Mike Mayock was the one who like really hit the
grand slam of being a true draft head and yeah,
and being that guy.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
I agree if we got to the point of actual analysis.
There have been plenty that have been up there during
this time that have not done the work. But the
all the guys you mentioned did do the work. The
the problem with Berman was by the end it was
so much about Berman and so much.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
About what.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
You know, and the the music references that were dated.
It was just it was one of those he was
caught in a time warp and and couldn't couldn't get
out of it, couldn't evolve out of it. That's the midway.
The midway, Okay, So I want you to listen. This
is the this is the you can talk over it.
(29:33):
These are the fresh cheese curds.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
You guys here a squeaking nurse.
Speaker 7 (29:40):
Yes, unfortunate sounds, yes, probably taste better going down than
it sounds.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
No, it tastes delicious, but it's so different. And then
this is the traditional cheese curd is fry.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
He then.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Hearing people eat this is oh terrible. I'm sorry, gim
worse than him.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
People, I feel like I can with cheese in your
teeth as hold on as I'm saying this.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
So that is this is preferable.
Speaker 8 (30:20):
Sounds like some squeezing a bouncy ball or.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
Something exactly what sounds like.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
It's exactly what. It sounds like, a racketball.
Speaker 1 (30:26):

fresh cheese curds. This is Scrays cheese curds. Since nineteen
twenty four. They've been doing it since ninety They've been
doing one hundred and one years. They've been doing this
cheese curd thing. So get on board, boys.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Just just what's that service.
Speaker 8 (30:41):
It's like gold gold Burgers or something.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
It's like the gold Belly gold Belly.
Speaker 7 (30:45):
They can find you these sort of hard to find
gourmet foods and then they can send it anywhere in
the country. That's we need some gold belly from you.

Speaker 11 (32:03):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
I just walked outside.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Were in the heart of Green Bay, Wisconsin, in the
title town district, and I mean it is glorious, it
is sunny. It is a chamber of commerce day, That's
what it is. And uh, he's not the mayor, but
he damn well could be at at any point that
he'd like, Uh, he's the outgoing president and CEO of
(32:26):
the Green Bay Packers. He's Mark Murphy's kind of up
to spend a couple moments with us here on the
Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Mark, You're you're the You're the guy.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Single handedly getting the the responsibility for bringing the draft
to Green Bay.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
How did this all happen? How?
Speaker 1 (32:46):
How how was the How was the draft able to
get to lambeau Field.
Speaker 11 (32:50):
Well, first of all, it was a total team effort.
I was everybody within the organization. We all knew how
much it would mean, not only to the Backer organization
but to the entire community. But it really goes back
that when they started taking the draft on the road
in twenty fifteen, we kind of raised our hand and said,
(33:12):
you know, we'd love to host the draft in Green Bay,
and you know, we ended up going to other cities
and really kind of wondered sometimes whether it would truly
work out. But you mentioned I think a little A
couple of things were really crucial. Obviously lambeau Field and
the history and tradition of the Packers, but the title
(33:34):
Town development. I don't think we would have the draft
or it not for that. And then the resh Expo.
Obviously you're familiar with the Res Center and the res
x BO. That whole area has really really kind of
put us over the top in terms of being able
to host the draft.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
Did you personally design the weather to roll in and
suddenly be sunny and beautiful today?
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Was that? I know you're a powerful man, Mark. I
didn't know you're that powerful.
Speaker 11 (34:01):
No, I don't have that to control. Actually, uh, you know,
we ended up we had like a thunderstorm and we
had to shut things down for a while. But it
was kind of a slow time, so worked up. I
really have been on the Titletown field with Special Olympics
athletes and other youth football players, which was really positive.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
What what is give me something that's come up that
you cannot believe? It's something that you guys have had
to kind of figure out how to.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Deal with, whether it's this week or the week's leading
up to it.
Speaker 11 (34:34):
Oh boy, you know, I have to admit. I mean
it's the leagues events and you know they obviously they've
done this multiple times and they had it down to
a but seeing the size of the stage. It's unbelievable
how they put it together. Yeah, I guess, I guess
(34:55):
it's just a magnitude of U and I I've described it.
I I just encourage all of our fans, everybody out
there and you got to come to this. It's unbelievable.
I mean it's like Disney World for football fans. Yeah, um,
for everybody.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Yeah, no, it's it's really it's really interesting. How do
you get an accurate crowd size count?
Speaker 2 (35:20):
Right?
Speaker 1 (35:20):
That's that's the whole thing, because you get people who said, well,
four hundred thousand people that have two hundred fifty thousand
people there tomorrow they have is there is there a specialist?
Is there somebody you hire who does the crowd size count?
Speaker 2 (35:33):
And we know that.
Speaker 11 (35:33):
There's a great question. I think there's some double and
triple counting there. But well, uh, you know, they do
have a there is a they do for the three
days in the draft. Each day as they start over,
so uh you know, if somebody's coming two or three times,
they'll be counted. But uh, yeah, no, we you know,
(35:54):
we're we're aftimating that we would have two hundred and
fifty thousand. I think in Detroit last here it was
like over seven hundred thousands, so obviously, yeah, you know
that's a little bit larger city than green Bay.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Last thing, Mark, I know everybody asks you this, as
president of the Green Bay Packers, will the Packers select
a wide receiver in the first round of the draft for.
Speaker 11 (36:19):
The first time since two thousand and two. We'll see
if that receiver is the best player available. We will
do it.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
A percentage of time stat gets asked to you in
the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 12 (36:33):
On a very regular basis, is the most amazing other
than we will take the best player available unless we
decided to trade down or to trade to have traded
up before.
Speaker 11 (36:47):
It's really an amazing process. Doug Uh. You know when
I was a player, I always wondered, you know, what
goes on in the draft room, and you know, the
last seventeen years being a part of that. It's a
it's not quite one a draft today, but there is
some truth in that.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
When when life imitates art, art imitates life. Mark Murphy,
President's CEO of the Green Bay Packers. Mark, obviously, this
is an incredible achievement. You guys have been able to
get green Bay here. Thanks so much for being our
guest on Fox Sports Radio. Yeah.
Speaker 11 (37:20):
Thanks though again it's really exciting just to see the
impact that is going to have and the excitement that
has generated in the community.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
No question about it.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
That's Mark Murphy, the outgoing president of the Green Bay Packers.
This is the Gottlieb Show here live at the bar
