GuestAll Takes
Dan PatrickI will officially retire from broadcasting in two and a half years
Two and a half years, and then I'll be done. I won't be working, yeah. I won't. I'll be strictly Sandler movies and that's it.
Dan PatrickI turned down hosting The Price Is Right despite a $10 million offer
I get a call out the blue and said, 'Hey, we're interested in having you host Price is Right.' And they said, Bob Barker signed off on you... I just didn't think I could do it well enough. It was $10 million a year [in 1999].
Dan PatrickIf Dan Marino played in today's NFL, he would pass for 6,000 yards in a season
Marino changed the game. Marino in today's game, he'd approach 6,000 yards probably. He'd throw for 50 [touchdowns] because that wasn't the difficulty for him. He was doing that before. And he is convincing Don Shula a defensive minded head coach to let him throw the ball as much as he wants.
Dan PatrickMike White will win more games as the Dolphins starter this year than Tua Tagovailoa
My spiciest NFL take is Mike White will win more games for the Dolphins than Tua Tagovailoa. I just did this the other day. I'm rooting for him [Tua]... I'll take that back. No, I'll stand by it.
Dan PatrickTom Brady will come out of retirement to play for the New York Jets
Tom Brady comes out of retirement. And he comes out of retirement to play for the Jets.
Dan PatrickSome great coordinators are simply not meant to be head coaches
There are certain guys who were just assistant coaches... Just because you're good at being a defensive coordinator doesn't mean you can be a head coach... certain guys are meant to be a head coach, certain guys are not.
Dan PatrickTom Brady would have retired if the Patriots had beaten the Eagles in the Super Bowl
If they had won the Super Bowl this year [Super Bowl LII], I believe he retired. Because I think when Gisele said that to the CBS Morning Show, she wasn't provoked to talk about his concussions. She was putting the pressure on him, I think, to say, Tommy's had concussions. He's not going to listen to me, but maybe he'll listen to somebody else.
Dan PatrickThe Patriots only traded Jimmy Garoppolo because Tom Brady forced them to
It doesn't make sense what happened in New England. If you tell me that that organization all of a sudden said, we're not trading Garoppolo. You can't have Garoppolo. Then all of a sudden you could have Garoppolo for a second-round draft pick. It doesn't make sense. And then, you know, so Brady, if he's pushing them to say, look, I'm not retiring here. Get rid of the kid. It feels like now Brady's indebted to them a little bit because they did what it felt like he asked them to do.
Dan PatrickI would take five LeBrons over five Michael Jordans in a prime matchup
[Big Cat]: Five MJs, five LeBrons. Who you got? Both in their prime. [Dan Patrick]: I'll take five LeBrons. LeBron's going to be as accomplished. The fact he went to eight straight NBA finals.
Dan PatrickMichael Jordan could not survive in today's social media environment
Mike, Mike couldn't survive in today's social media. He wouldn't have done well with social media.
Dan PatrickPete Rose belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame as a player
As a baseball player, put him in the Hall of Fame. Don't let him hold a job. That's it. If you cheat in grad school, I don't take away from your undergrad degree. And that's the way I look at it with Pete. He did something wrong as a manager. Now, if you can prove he bet as a player, then I wouldn't put him in the Hall of Fame.
Dan PatrickI would have easily beaten Skip Bayless in a game of one-on-one basketball
[Skip Bayless] is in good shape. But if we're shooting, then I would steal his lunch money. I would have lit up Skip Bayless.
Dan PatrickI will likely retire from the radio show in five or six years
Three or four. Five, maybe. Maybe five. I don't know. Maybe six. No more than five more years.
