Summary

On today's show, Pat and the boys discuss the recent developments coming from the college football world where reports indicate that the Big Ten and Pac-12 are considering postponing their fall seasons, while the SEC seems to be trying to move full steam ahead. To discuss the situation, 12 year NFL Quarterback, current ESPN analyst, one of the sharpest football minds around, and friend of the show, Dan Orlovsky joins the program. Pat and Dan discuss everything going on with the college football climate and the players asserting that they want to play. They chat about what will happen if certain conferences postpone their fall seasons while some schools still decide they want to play football, why they think this could be a fracturing point for the NCAA and major conferences, what other information would need to come out to firmly cancel football at colleges, why not playing the season would be a major detriment to a lot of players who are forced to go home and lose the daily structure of a football season, and whether or not Dan thinks we'll see a lot of players being poached by schools who are trying to play (16:45-35:40). Also joining the show is friend of the program and ESPN MLB Insider, Jeff "Jett" Passan. Pat and Jett discuss how the MLB has been handling their COVID outbreaks and what is being done to make sure that games can still be played, how serious teams are about sending players home if they ignore rules and decide to go out in cities, if teams that have had several games canceled due to positive tests are going to play a full slate, whether or not he thinks the baseball season will finish, and Jett weighs in on everything happening in the NCAA with a great take that may surprise you (37:26-51:13). Don't forget to send in a picture of where you're listening to the show with the hashtag #ThisIsWhereImAtPat for the chance to win some free merch. We appreciate you rocking with us day in and day out.

0:00.0	Hello, we are back fresh off a honeymoon with my wife.
0:09.6	We had a great time. It was nice to refresh. It was nice to finally say, I do do each other.
0:17.6	You know, we had Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge our way through all these COVID protocols and
0:22.6	guidelines and my wife replanned the wedding like four times. We enjoyed the hell out of it,
0:28.7	enjoyed the honeymoon and I kicked the dudes head off in the middle of it. You know,
0:33.2	gotta do what you gotta do. A lot is happening in the sports world. A lot is happening in our
0:37.6	world. We'll talk all about it. I can't thank you enough for choosing to listen to this show.
0:40.8	Obviously, you could let a lot of other things penetrate your ear holes. The fact you're letting us
0:45.4	do that. I am so, so, so grateful. If you enjoy this show today, feel free to tell a friend. If you
0:51.9	didn't just act like it never fucking happened. Let's get to it. I had a great week last week and
0:59.7	I'm, you know, now we get back into this week and it's gloom and doom all over the place where
1:04.5	sports work. I mean, college football. We've been saying this for a long time. Now, I don't like to
1:09.9	be the guy that says, hey, I told you so. Okay, because I feel as if when I speak normally, I'm right.
1:15.2	Okay, so I could be doing that all damn day if I really wanted to. But I mean, I've been wrong.
1:20.1	Obviously, plenty of occasions, plenty of occasions. But I feel like on a lot of stuff,
1:24.0	I don't get enough credit for being right because how I deliver it is much more entertaining than
1:28.0	how the boring people on TV talk. So, what we've been saying this entire time about college football
1:32.4	versus the NFL, we've been saying the college football probably not going to happen or not looking
1:37.5	good to happen because the people that are ultimately making those decisions don't necessarily have
1:42.5	to love football. Okay, right now, if you look at what the big 10s happening, two of the presidents
1:47.1	Michigan and I forget who else are actual doctors. Okay, they're the presidents of the universities.
1:52.0	They're actual doctors. Now, I'm not saying they're smart. Book smart. Who knows if they're
