At least now my Jayhawks will have a semi-valid excuse when they make their usual too early exit in the second or third round.

apparently i had some dirt underneath my nails that had some worm eggs in them...clearly i was a disgusting child with no sense of cleanliness

I used to bite my nails for many years. Partially out of nervous habit. I have since stopped biting my nails but picked up something MUCH worse - I pick at my skin. I get dry patches on my face that won't go away no matter what and I pick at them which makes it worse. When the patches come off they'll bleed and scab…

I was wondering why I did it since 2nd grade. I clearly remember sitting by the window, looking at one of my fingers, then taking a chomp.

I chewed the nail. I chewed the thin layer that you can peel off the top of the nail. I chewed the side skin. I chewed the fingertips. None of it was enough. I was insatiable.

Yeah you're right a 30 sec. pre-interview is not difficult... But I'm still not sure what you're getting at? Why would they have him on to just talk about Qualcomm? I'd put the blame on him and his PR/handler rather than the show's producer. It's a sports show, not an infomercial. They don't have a problem with…

Fritzy isn't my favorite, but he's a pretty good sport because everyone rips on him the most. And the "horn dog" thing is played out for sure, but that's as much DP's fault as it is Fritzy's. Dan Patrick knows how to beat the shit out of a dead horse. McLovin (such a dumb fucking nickname, by the way) is actually my…

I've always wondered if Dan Patrick feels awkward when he asks guests if they'd like to "come inside my man cave."

I agree it is the best show of its type out there. Doesn't mean it can't be critiqued.

I think some of you are a bit sensitive for a bunch of guys who listen to sports radio. Much of the interaction between Dan and his crew is for the show and also tongue and cheek. Are you guys trying to tell me that when you get around your buddies, you don't bust each other's balls? I did not think Dan was getting on…

Stepped on a fanboy's toes. So, the day is not a total loss.

Out of context, this interaction was not very bad. Having watched/listened to this show on a pretty regular basis, Dan makes it a point to single out his booker Fritzy for mishaps that are beyond his control (bad reception, dropped calls, etc.). He often does this on air and it makes an awkward situation that much…

I catch Dan Patrick's show as background noise usually and happened to watch today, His producer Pauly thinks they are putting Edward R Murrow stuff on the air everyday. It's a sports talk show, you're not changing the world. Let Matt Harvey get his pitch on you corporate shills. Understand the process.

Never listened to Pat O, but it's not a good schtick. I thought he was doing some satire a la Stephen Colbert where he's playing the part of a dickhead sports guy. He can be self deprecating at times (he often refers to himself as a "talking haircut") and some of his stories about the olden days of yore at ESPN are…

You understand 95% of it is tongue and cheek, right? Guess not. It's the best show of its type out there.

What's more awkward, this interview or the constant name dropping that DP does? Hey, did you guys know he knows Adam Sandler? Hey, nothing is cooler than hearing a dude in his 50's drone on and on about SI cover girls that are 19.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has picked up on it. The sad thing is, DP is probably the least funny and least clever of the bunch. Whenever he cracks a lame dad joke, I cringe a little bit when the Danettes deliver the canned laughter. I'm sure I'd ass kiss in that situation too, but one day I want one of them to…

Dan Patrick apparently aspires to be Pat O'Brien (sans the cocaine and hooker scandal, presumably), if you've ever heard O'Brien's radio show on Fox. He does the constant name-dropping and the on-air berating of employees less than half his age, really the exact same ego shitstorm at a different radio frequency.

Yes, Fritzy is his booker. Fritzy doesn not have the power to force Matt Harvey to talk about what Dan Patrick wants to talk about. Fritzy has been booking for a while and he does a pretty good job, but when shit goes off the rails, Dan shifts the blame to him or the other guys on the other side of the glass. I…

I get that, but often Dan's treatment of his crew reminds me of an alpha in high school who only thinks he conveys his coolness by belittling his peers. Dude is a middle aged man, it's embarrassing and awkward at that point.
