About this episode
All-time G-League leading scorer and three-time NBA dunk contest champion, Mac McClung joins the Dan Patrick Show and discusses what it’s like to take the scoring record, bouncing around on 10-day contracts with the NBA and fighting for roster spots, plus why other players didn’t want to go against him in the dunk contest. UConn Men’s Head Basketball Coach Dan Hurley sits down with Dan and explains how he’s never gotten a technical foul in an NCAA Tournament game despite his fiery reputation, and what Michigan State coach Tom Izzo told him when Hurley was considering the Lakers job. Plus, Dan and the Danettes consider possible names for an NBA franchise in Las Vegas and determine who should get to keep the monicker of “Iceman.”

in g league history where you will wear that record the other night when you put up fifty nine yeah um... it was a really cool moment and i think my teammates they were um they're like you get this record tonight so they have my support and uh... they really want me to break it so uh... it was a really cool moment how much could you score in a game uh... the fifty nine was pretty exhausting so i don't know how much more i could do than that so um... i'd probably say that's close to my limit so you can go eighty three like bam out of bio i haven't done it yet and i don't know that's that's incredibly impressive i think no matter what the situation is so that's that was really cool what are you told because we see your abilities but what are teams tell you when you get a ten day contract or your product for a little while and then you go back to the g league yeah it's it's kind of different in every situation you know i think you know being in the situation where you're fighting to find a roster spot
you could different teams need different things so whatever it is i try to adapt and do that you know and it's it's been tough man a lot of times i've i've been told you know you're an NBA player like a coach i had actually one year you know being on a two-way you're at the bottom of the roster you made the roster but you're kind of the guy that goes back and forth and i had coach tell me one year he's like man you're an NBA player like all you need an opportunity and like almost like was laughing i was like what you gotta give me the opportunity really uh... i'm just trying to make the most of whatever the situation is it's tough man well you hear about you don't play defense or you're not good at playing defense uh... you're not good off the ball like these are things that have been said are those fair those fair criticisms uh... you know my two games this year uh... when i got uh... called up the beginning year where i got legit minutes i was actually leading the league in still so i don't know if i agree with that totally so uh... it's uh... there's always going to be something and i felt like
that's the thing i've been trying to do in the g league is just show like all you said this wasn't that that's what that's not the case and some people are always going to say certain things man but i've i've really got a lot of love and respect from you know peers in the league that i really appreciate and coaches in the league that i really looked up to so i think just just trying to find that opportunity in that right situation what was your welcome to the NBA moment i would say with uh... with the lakers that was where i started and that team was lebron car mellow rondo do i howard and i was just like i'm this kid from the small town against it i'm like what in some video game right now so that that was shocking in something i had to just do for a couple days did you get to keep the uniform yeah absolutely i always always try to make sure i keep that and have it you know so my kids hopefully can see one day do you introduce yourself to lebron or does he say hello to you i would i'd definitely introduce myself and uh... yeah i don't think he
in that situation he would ever have to introduce himself to me so you know it was an honor being just a part of that and getting to see some things but are you star struck on the floor when you're playing like i'm guarding this guy that i grew up watching did you have that moment i think in my first year you know you just adjust that i think at the end of day we're all competitors and you want to win and you kind of flip that switch once you get on the floor but you there's a level of respect you know when you're a little kid and you watch someone and they mean something to you they make you love the game that you're always going to have for those people do you think uh... you're too good at dunking that it over shadow you was a basketball player that maybe you were looked at as he does that and not maybe being fair to your actual basketball game i think that that could be um... maybe something from the outside of i but like these scouts in these teams like their job is to know basketball players i think anybody that like knows basketball like that is just something i got to be a part of and i'm incredibly grateful for
i lean into it you know like that was such a cool thing that i got to do there's i'm never going to be like oh man i hate dunking now because of that like that's a beautiful part of my life and i think you know the people that really love basketball and basketball like that's just a part of me that's not really who i am he's Mac McClung the windy city balls uh... but why not be in the slam dunk contest this year um... well they quite friendly they didn't really want me in it this year so that was it was like uh... they wanted me in it and then some things happened and uh... you know it kind of went back and forth and at the end they kind of didn't want me in the contest so i'd already prepared that's why i released those don'ts on the social media because i'd already prepared and i was like you know i teamed up with a uh... a company marketing and i was like well mine is well-made to most of this but i'm just was it you weren't on a roster is that why they didn't want to in the slam dunk contest no i made the Chicago Bulls roster
a cut maybe a little bit before that so okay um i don't know they told me that it was it was just it was a weird situation man i think they they said a couple guys didn't want to do it if i was in it and i was like okay well i don't want to ruin that and uh... wait why why why wouldn't they want to be in there because they you were gonna win i don't know man i feel like a these a lot of these guys are really talented so that would make sense to me i mean a lot of things in this lead don't make sense a lot of time i'm just going with the flow man i really am just going with the flow of how would you do michael jordan in his prime you in your prime slam dunk contest that's a tough question dan i think uh... uh the times have changed like kind of like in the game of basketball like everything progresses so i think if michael jordan was in this era he would probably have so much different dunks and so many creative things so i mean i would i think i'd be a little crazy to say i'd take over mj like that man so and i
got a lot so much respect and love for him i would never say that i'd beat him but it'd be fun i would i would definitely take the challenge it'd be a lot of fun have you met him? no never met in jade before um to be super cool though can you leave from the foul line um my my best jumps are off two feet when i was in high school man when i was when i was younger i used to be i wasn't that long ago mac i really had three years to every one of you you were you were really you got you got the like viral famous in high school it was like Zion Williams and this guy you know everybody wanted to see those videos like did you feel like a a star when you were in high school? that was some crazy crazy times um i was i was in a town of 1500 people so everybody already kind of knew me and it was the cool part about it was when we would travel to different schools they would like school would like shut down early because people would be outside waiting for the
games and it kind of felt like we were the kind like this band that was traveling it was like me and my best friends man it was such a cool experience and you know you go on youtube and like oh i got two million views last night it's just it was it was so weird being from a small town and like getting that attention man but it was really cool for me and my friends so it was boy band you were like uh you know new kids on the block or one dimension one uh what is it one direction yeah we weren't that cool but we really did make us feel good uh so what's the future what are you 27 27 years old um the future for me man i'm not sure i'm really like kind of going back to this situation and the record and my glee career like all i've tried to do i've all tried to do is is make the most of wherever i'm at in that moment and whether that be the don't contest the opportunity i was given with that or being in the glee i've just tried to make the most of the situation so i'm not attached any outcome but just whatever happens is i really
truly believe i'm not a victim of anything man so whatever happens is is how it's supposed to be official height and weight i'm measured i have to come out i measured six two one eighty five okay maybe it looks better when you're shorter like if you're six six doing that it's not as impressive yeah maybe i maybe wish i was six six that would probably give me uh if you're six six you're not winning the slam dunk contest but you're playing in the NBA there we go well that's that's the interesting trade-off uh hey it's been fun been entertaining i hope you get that uh true shot and where you get to actually play and uh you know prove a lot of these people wrong so congratulations on the scoring record man i really appreciate it man i appreciate you having me on thank you very much it's mac mcclun he's the all-time leading score in g league history be sure to catch the live edition of the dan patrick show weekdays at nine a.m. eastern six a.m. pacific on fox sports radio

yeah mick cronin got one for clapping yeah i was pleasantly surprised uh i didn't know what the obviously the prop bets so i'm sure there were lots of them on i don't know what i went off at but uh somebody wants some money uh are you now Dan Hurley like Danny Hurley is that that's a previous life no i think uh maybe when i get in my sixties i'll go back to Danny when i want to feel younger because i'm old maybe seventies i'll go back to Danny okay all right uh i know that uh you reached out to a lot of people when you consider the lakers job you reached out to tom iso who you face tomorrow night what did coach say because i know he was thinking about going to the Cavaliers uh the uh what was that the year that lebron left the Cavaliers he was going to win in coach so what advice did he give you on the lakers job yeah i mean coach iso he uh me he walked me through
just uh you know his his uh thought process what when he went through uh you know like the uh you know the decision making of of making that move to the mba and the pros and cons and uh you know he obviously you know at that time your college was very different and uh you know the point that coaching had made to me was yeah i think you really got to consider it our sport right now it's uh you know it's it's it's so unregulated it's such a mess uh you know that you know you i would have considered this more now than i did back when college basketball you know what it was uh you know more regulated so i but i you know coaches have been there for me on lots of different things you know and i've studied coach for a long time like i have all the great coaches you know i've studied you know their films as a high school coach trying to learn you know favorite practice drills of tomizo anything on motivation and leadership culture building you know i've studied all the great coaches and taken advice from all the great ones
can you see yourself coaching at his age i can't see myself coaching at his age but i also can't see myself not coaching you know like with your part of teams and this is so so much for a part of your identity i always say to myself i can't believe these guys are coaching in their 70s yeah yeah but then you know then you find yourself coaching in your 70s like patino i mean he he's a lifeline i mean these guys are uh it's incredible to me you know like it really is the energy level um how they yeah the thing about college you know college coaching college basketball is like the you know the head coach drives the organization i mean they drive it drive it drive it and are pushing everyone around them to the max and uh you know at obviously you know with the amount of years those guys put in and what they achieved and to still be pushing that hard in their 70s incredible can you be outcoached i think that's a little bit of a uh whoever won the game
outcoached the other guy thing you know i think i think it's more about matchups especially this time of the year yeah you've got great coaches coach and all 16 of these teams uh yeah what all comes down trying to think matchups who's playing their best at this time of year half time adjustments and all that stuff i think it's way way overrated talking to uh Dan Hurley the Connecticut basketball coach they got Michigan State tomorrow night saint john's getting a five seed after winning the big east is blank crap you know i mean i mean you know crap uh and then having the you know the two big east teams uh you know in the same region you know it's probably the same do you think that they were hoping that there would be a rematch i mean the committee yeah i mean i i i think that uh they're definitely the committee uh they got a weird sense of humor or they do a great job of trying to give the people what they want
and uh i think no matter how this week ends up in uh you know in dc you're going to get an elite eight game that's going to be you know it's going to be incredible when you've got you know Duke you know Rick Patino and saint john's Yukon and Michigan State i had somebody ask me this and i didn't know if they were joking and i realized they weren't they said can Yukon be a Cinderella story as a juicy and i go no well i'll ask you are you a Cinderella story this year no i don't think so i think we've been uh you know consistently you know consistently great the whole year you know we haven't always yeah we we haven't performed in the championship moments so it'll be interesting to see how we respond this week but uh you know we we played uh or we had as good a non-conference wins as anyone in the country uh and then we went 19 and three in the big east so you know and then uh yeah we won our first two you know first two tournament games by double figure points so uh i do think we're you know we're kind of coming in you know a lot quieter
than we did in 23 and 24 and that's probably serves us pretty well i'm curious about the future of the mid major here Dan because i don't know if these last two years are an aberration or is that the future of the blue bloods are are going to take over and mid majors are not going to be what they used to be yeah well i i definitely think that uh you know i think it's going to get tougher for mid mid mid majors because i think more high majors are going to spend more money in this offseason so i think it's going to get even tougher i think to to make the assembly tournament uh and then i think it's going to be tougher for the mid majors but then i also on the flip side i think you're going to see in even uh um more international players coming into college basketball like i just think the inventory is going to grow as it makes more sense for international players that can make more money in college in america and then that i think it is just going to create more
inventory of talent that the mid major uh you know ends up with uh with better players and they could maybe you know win more of these early conference games but i wonder though if you would rather get uh a transfer who has proven or you got a high school kid really the perfect world i'd rather have the high school kid and i think the way that we try to do it is uh a majority of our team we want is is homegrown boys that that we developed a relationship with we have a culture we got a real connection you got a real fabric of a team and uh and uh and it's supplement with with what you need in the portal or or at least you know in most cases have multiple years with the transfer so it doesn't feel uh so transactional and it doesn't feel like you're just putting together a mercenary squad what's the most money somebody has asked you for four and a half million i think how does that conversation go it doesn't actually go on with me
because i i'll meet with the agents um to talk about the vision for the player you know on the official visit with the with the transfer or the high school player they could sit in on um you know how how we plan to develop the player how do we use them in the system uh whatever but once we get to uh you know any type of negotiating that just goes to the GM Tom Moore and then uh he just kind of walks in and out of the boardroom telling me where where the negotiations going and then you know uh yeah i try to stay out of that i don't you know the negotiations get personal how would you do coaching the Yukon women's team and how would Geno do well coaching the men's team well i think you know what obviously do better coach in the men's team coach in the women because you know because genos maybe the you know the best coach of all time so uh i would be i don't i would be more relaxed obviously i wouldn't be uh
i would enjoy i don't know they've won 27 or 20 30 games this year by 25 points or more i don't know how i would handle that i don't know what type of stress i would create and uh you know what type of tension can i create there it would probably make me crazy i would long for a brutal loss at some point you would you would probably consult your wife a lot more i would uh yeah uh she she would yeah she'd have a lot to say too and she'd be constantly monitoring me you you would have to find somebody to yell at and it'd be hard to find somebody to yell at on the women's team yeah it would be and um yeah and i don't know i i i i i i i the officials are mostly female or i mean it's it was that half and half you know i just it'd be an adjustment with a different world will you watch the games tonight yeah you know we'll keep these guys up and
and do do video it's it's you know the games could start for us close to nine you know so we but last week we played it i think we started our first round game at 10 30 eastern time so our body clock is used to playing late at night but yeah i mean only in years that i get eliminated early do i not watch i i you know i i refuse i i i uh i boycott the tournament in years where where we're not in contention yeah i understand that i think you know why why put yourself through the agony of watching somebody and you go we're better than them yeah and it's like uh you know when you're a little kid or something and uh if you didn't get invited to a birthday party or a pool party or something in your neighborhood and then what are you going to do go up to the fence and listen to the kids splash around the water no one's doing that is there something you're you want to tell me that you didn't get invited to the pool parties in the neighborhood did anybody have a pool in Jersey city there was one there was one up at the top of the block right down a couple houses
down from Darren Savino buddy of ours coaches at UCLA and there was literally one pool in in this like probably two block radius and uh on the way to the park where my where my dad and mom would put us through the drills me my brother the jump rope the ball handling drills the shooting drills in the heat of summer we had to kind of dribble past that pool while they were splashing around barbecuing listening to music in like June July August so no scars yeah but how many titles did those people win i mean i don't think i don't think they uh yeah sports wasn't their deal hey what's your mom putting you through drills with your dad yeah because during a week my dad you know he was a probation officer you know so during the summer my dad didn't teach it's an Anthony so he didn't get the summers off so you know either me and Bob would write up the plan for today or my dad would have the the workout written out the you be brown box drills the agility warm
up i mean we would make chalk you know x is on the on the court so we could do our agility work my mom would have a whistle and uh she would put us through the paces as the neighbor as people would be looking out at us in astonishment neighbors so your dad probation officer i'm going to guess pretty tough to get away with stuff in uh in your teens yes care i mean yeah you know i mean he uh just growing up in jersey city you know the things that he did uh just as a kid that was raised in the street and uh as an outside dog uh not an indoor dog and uh i mean he uh you know and then being a probation officer kind of driving around with him when he would go on house calls trying to find uh yeah i guess his clients that had not come in to take uh you know the the urine test or what have you just seeing grown men scramble as the dodge caravan was driving down Martin Luther King
drive you know you you you know you can't get away with stuff but i wonder that had you been you know raised in the suburbs as opposed to where you're raised would you be how different would you be or would you be different as a person as a coach player i would be a lot different i i think the you know the advantage of growing up you know where we grew up growing up in the city growing up in north jersey jersey city uh you know i just think you you've got a real versed versatile relatable way about you uh you know you feel like you could you know communicate with with a very diverse group of people from all different types of backgrounds i mean jersey city i think next to queens is the most diverse city in america so uh you know it's you you develop you know a connection to all people you're comfortable out on the street corner but you're also you develop a comfortability uh uh in the boardroom uh great to talk to you do you have big plans for

if Seattle is going to get the franchise expansion franchise they still own sonics it seems like they would want to you know reembrace this Seattle's super sucks but what about vegas because this is truly an expansion team so what is the name the nickname for vegas going to be i don't know if anybody seen any names out there but i don't know i guess you're going to play off gambling you're going to play off cards i don't know yeah pulling the golden nights the hockey team what's that based off of the owner i think went to west point and it's about the golden nights west point i could see the NBA even in this gambling era trying to avoid anything racy for lack of a better word with the name of the team like uh the high rollers well you have the aces of the wnba okay but and that's a that's a good you don't want to be the joke
somebody suggested the jokers i go no no you don't want your team calling being called jokers but then you have to trade for joker and get him in there you don't want the Las Vegas dealers that's a lot of you don't want the vegas craps right brought to you by dude wipes that's the case in the vegas craps huh yeah yeah Todd you got any names for the vegas expansion franchise the dice could do all kinds of things with two dice and light it up and do all kinds of i think marketing things with a pair of dice all right the biggest dice yes Marvin this may be fritsy-esque the showboys the showboys sounds weird that sounds like some creepy website you're on stay out of my personal life but i was looking over your shoulder yes Todd the Las Vegas gentleman's club like they have the Washington commanders club we were talking about real names Todd
i think that would kind of be fun no but Adam silver ready to kind of nixed one of those things recently can't do the magic city things we definitely can't do Las Vegas gentlemen no no you can't do a Olympic garden or anything like that good times though experiment right oh yeah the rhinos yes Mark maybe something like from one of their old xfl the outlaws or something like that i don't know i haven't seen any names and yes pulling i've got kind of a rando betting site they have the the mirage the jokers the outlaws the scorpions the venom the diamonds the diamonds yeah but that yeah i should have been for the uh Las Vegas aves right the diamonds Las Vegas diamonds right the x calibers thanks uh yes Marvin for me and Paulie more important than anything team colors like hmm what do you do because you can't look like the berklin nets with black and white
um oh no one will confuse you because nobody watches the net but then are the oaklin aves the Vegas aves are they going to continue their green and gold colors i'm guessing the raiders kept their colors yeah point based off i got an article from sports business journal it's just a speculative article it says they wouldn't be surprised if they went a total different direction with their uniforms which allows them to do a throwback weeks and nights hmm like most teams would do yes he a part of the thing that's tricky for Las Vegas is a lot of names that would be perfect for them are already taken so like you have the magic that would be great for Las Vegas already taking the heat then the desert oh that's already taken the aces while you already got an aces the good names are already taken you could be like the neons or something yes John can they go into business with the sphere and be the spheres and do something maybe there's something marketing-wise and you can uh I think that's something there kind of a tough nickname the spear let's go watch the spheres outlaws
yeah the golden nuggets you got the Denver nuggets you got the golden nights the golden nuggets you can do that i like that all right okay you're rallying you probably wouldn't have the golden nuggets if you have the Denver nuggets though that would probably be a problem good call time they seem like you're excited they're for like that there's something that I did but you know it was better than the other suggestions you had so now that I think about you can't have two nuggets no you can't I don't even have the golden nugget even existed all right uh Cuba in Arizona hi Cuba what's on your mind today so VP thank you hey ma'am just calling give you some corduroy love these haters on you but uh you even got a couple corduroy hats man wait a minute I'm getting I'm getting criticized for my corduroy now I'm giving you love oh okay oh well that's what I was worried about am I getting uh like social media hate for my corduroy
baker and bozeman hi bake hey tour hey happy Friday and speaking of your corduroy love listen I own a fuel that corduroy love with a gorgeous chocolate brown corduroy Levi's jacket I just emailed the photo of it to Tyler the moderator if you want to see it I'd like I'd like to offer that jacket up in exchange for a game use ESPN tie you said you got 75 of them laying around doing nothing how about a swap all right we'll do that baker thank you uh zack a nox bill hi zack thanks for holding what's on your mind today uh thanks for taking the call dp uh I always pictured Marvin you know with the Jake Moscow jersey on when he's up there at the pearly gates but uh I just wanted to ask you about that NBA expansion uh we already have quite a few teams that go into the season and remain irrelevant uh do you think that it's a good move to move into expansion right now well we've talked about that and we had tracing the gradient he goes I don't know if we have enough
players to expand and he does make a really good case there I mean if you look at some of these rosters and I could give you names and you'd go what sport that you know they just wouldn't ring they'd ring hollow and you'd be like I have no idea who that is I follow it and they're times when I go I have no idea who that guy is or who we place for I do not um but man you look at the money it's between seven and ten billion dollars this is the entrance fee and that money will then go to the other owners the other owners are gonna make probably somewhere around I don't know four hundred five hundred million dollars for not doing anything you imagine you show up one day and you're looking your bank account and it got four hundred and fifty million dollars and you didn't do anything man great to be an owner uh Chris and Syracuse hi Chris what's on your mind
hey thanks for getting me in Dan yeah I got a few things to throw at you and also a possible mock headline to be written on your casket um yeah I guess biggest can't go with because of the Chicago bulls they can't go with the pit bulls either um you were talking about the pirate center fielders non-error now MLB says it has to be a physical error not a judgment error when your judgment tells you to put your glove in a certain spot and the ball bounces off the heel of your glove that's an error just like when your judgment tells you to run forward after a ball instead of backwards running is a physical activity it's an error and I have to disagree with Robbie Hummel saying he's never seen a coach only having four players on the floor let's not forget about that other Husker coach the legendary Norman Dale and Dan you guys were talking about having your funeral in the man cave on your beloved basketball court the casket may read former western Kentucky hill topper finally passes nice all right it's eastern Kentucky we weren't even western
Kentucky they were good they were eastern Kentucky it's very good thank you Chris Caleb Williams has submitted four trademark applications related to the name iceman a logo name and silhouettes that mimic Caleb Williams poses he rolls left jumps and completes a pass oh so George Gervin the iceman he has a problem with this because he is filed for a trademark he had iceman and iceman 44 that was his jersey number so four days after Williams application was filed George Gervin his trademark application was also I guess submitted but he's been called the iceman and that was first used in 1979 I actually have the iceman poster and ice is he's sitting
on a block of ice and he's these basketballs you know look like their ice as well it's great great poster but I sent me that autographed a couple of years ago but I guess there is a soccer player in Chelsea right Satan yeah Cole Palmer and he's called iceman well no they'll call him cold Palmer oh but his celebration was that sort of like I'm freezing kind of thing because like every time he scores a goal he's like that was too cold okay so Caleb is imitating this soccer player Paul Palmer yeah okay so when Palmer scores he gives you the all like shivers like who and so they call him cold Palmer okay I think Chuck LaDelle former MMA fighter wasn't he known as iceman there's a lot of guys who are laying claim to this also naval pilot Val Kilmer Val Kilmer the original iceman oh gee yeah I believe what else Paul actually the timeline would be George Gervin first okay the George Gervin's company Gervin Global Management thought they had the
nickname trademarked already they found out they never did they the confusion was a death of a business associate who was tasked to do this years ago and he didn't get it done so when Caleb Williams went in to do this he had the green light to do it it was not already trademark and when they realized it they scrambled the Gervin people to get iceman and ice 44 trademark the nickname was not self-given by Caleb it kind of the press did it after he did the cold Palmer thing yeah and but he already took the logo and it's kind of making maybe a clothing line out of this or other things yeah they're talking about jerseys and hats and sports equipment I wear posters trading cards sweatshirts George Gervin is iceman you know see I'm looking a little deeper into the George Gervin situation you know who had the rights to it that was supposed to do it on his behalf and didn't Alec Bond's parents damn it no that's all right I'm confusing my stories man oh wow
wow sorry yes okay this is the question for the room if you were the judge in this case and had to decide how would you make your decision I would say iceman you're the original iceman you get it uh quarter adjourned but he did make he thought he had trademarked it it's not like he he all the sudden go oh my gosh I got a trademark that he he did think that he was filing the trademark papers there was a death and they weren't able to he did not realize that I I would I would give it to iceman yes pulling some people use nicknames of people from the past but if if I refer to you by your nickname and it's more well known than your actual name I think it's yours tiger woods no one calls him eldrick no one says hey George Gervin was on TV today you say I saw ice Gervin on a TV show yeah I think that would be the default judgment no one goes iceman
Williams of the bears yeah no one says that yet yeah but Gervin has you know he's got some kind of documentation he's got a poster that says iceman on it I would just bring the poster to court find him I'm gonna say here it is that there's me yes he I do I think there's something to if you bring all of them into court and line them up and ask the jury which one of them is iceman and they point to George Gervin and they're like okay you that's clearly you win you get the patent you do you do a you do a focus group and you bring the focus group in and say all right uh you line up chuck laddell you line up ice curve and you line up Caleb Williams go okay who is iceman and you point now if I'm if I'm Gervin I'm wearing my uniform I'd be wearing my San Antonio Spurs jersey yes Mark that said ice on the back yes yes it doesn't say ice on the Chicago Bears uniform no it doesn't one is iceman the other one is a guy that pretends to be cold I would I would come in and do a finger roll like I would
you know do the little Gervin finger roll there maybe grows here back get a throwback yes Paulie it's like if I said oh I saw I was watching NFL Network and LT was being interviewed I'm referring to who well that's different that is because that could be Lawrence Taylor or Lydini and Tomlinson right but those are just initials I wonder if either trade marked that for clothes or merchandise I don't know but Abdul Carter also wanted to be called LT as well and it's weird he wanted his number he'd like to be called LT as well I think he's changing his number again his Abdul Carter changing his number or did I make that up to 56 no no no he can't do 56 but I don't know for some reason I thought maybe he was changing he was changing something all right let me take a break it's time for sausage and peppers we also have our little batting
helmets with ice cream in it the nacho cheese dip we have crab crab dogs is that what it is oh boy you guys don't come in sick on Monday or with a stomach ache all right Todd I will try to avoid that all right everything in moderation that's the problem it's very easy to say those words imagine never having to buy gas again it's true it's real and it's here right now EVs are as easy the charge as your phone and they're perfect for everyday life you can drive daily with confidence everywhere you go and most Americans drive about 40 miles a day and most EVs are equipped with 200 to 400 miles of range EVs they have fewer parts fewer repairs fewer headaches and with hundreds of new and used EV models available today there's an EV to fit every lifestyle and every budget trust me the way forward is electric learn more at electricforall.org shout out to our friends at Panini America the premier collecting experience with coveted cards
