Why does Danny Parkins gush about Ben Johnson’s coaching style?
I could do Stephen A.' 's job, guys. It's not that
hard. Danny Parkins. Danny Parkins, Chicago boy.
QB1 party! All are invited!
Host of Fox Sports 1's First Things First.
Our old friend Danny Parkins said that you have to do a bad take audit where you audit all of your bad takes and then you get fined for your bad takes. Oh, Danny can't get
any sleep if he does that to himself. He won't be sleeping at night. Danny's up all night. That's how he got that show on FS1. Hey, Pat, he's on no-dos. He's on no-dos right
now. The Bears, plenty of reason to doubt them. Caleb Williams,
no. Former host of 670 The Score before he abandoned us. That's a Caleb Williams custom, baby. Jersey number one is going to the Raptors. You guys made it seem like a Chicago Bears fan. We had our guy, Danny Parkins, all these guys. Danny Parkins on 104.3 The Score. Wait.
Parko is a former score star, and we always look forward to talking to our guy here on Rahimi and Grody. on 104.3 The Score. That's right. Check Danny out on First Things First OT from 4 to 5 p.m. every day on FS1. And Danny is joining us on our video stream to watch Search the Score Chicago on Twitch and on YouTube. And that is where you will see Parco right now. Danny Boy, what's going on, man?
Brody, Layla, it's great to be here. It's great to be back. It is true. I lose a lot of sleep, Olin, Pat. That was a good line, doing my own take audits of my bad takes. That's an excellent point. I'll be back in Chicago for 20 hours this weekend, by the way. The brain up 5K is Saturday morning, Lake Villa Park down there on the lakefront. Going to raise a bunch of money. So hope some people come out. We're going to do the check presentation from the Radiothon, $805,000. So looking forward to being back in Chicago for just a few hours this weekend.
Why would you not stick around for the Bears game and put on like a ridiculous outfit and bring all sorts of attention to yourself at Soldier Field? Danny, why?
Yeah.
Why?
Well, I do that only for Bears-Packers playoff games.
Going
to NFL games kind of sucks. I don't enjoy it. I like to watch all of the games. And, you know, I got to get back. I got to coach Eli's four-year-old team. t-ball sunday mornings and so i got i got a few i got a few little weekend things the next couple of weeks where i'm going to be going away so i got a minute minimize the time away when i can so going to vegas in a couple of weeks got parents weekend in stores connecticut for nephew jack in a couple of weeks
i got a
lot going on
okay uh that's an east coast hack since the games don't start until one that's good time management out of you
It is, except Owen's games are at 2 p.m.
on
Sunday. And so I am confronted with the, do I go and then just be the unattentive dad who's watching games on my phone? Or do I not go and have Steph FaceTime me for his at-bats? So his first one is this Sunday, so we'll figure it out.
Oh my gosh. This is a debate. This is a parenting conundrum.
Yeah, I mean, listen, I'll be honest. I have to watch the NFL. Like, it's not great. And so I don't want him to, like, I think he understands that, like, daddy watches football for work or whatever. And so what I don't want is him to see me there and then see me distracted. Okay. So I feel like that would send the worst message. So I'm going to be picking and choosing based on the slate and the quality of the games, which games I attend versus which ones I don't. I coached him last year, so I'm coaching Eli this year. So we'll figure it
out. It is the part of the job that's hilarious to explain to people. I can't go out tonight because I have to watch the Cubs and White Sox. Well, just come on. We'll put the game on the TV. No, it doesn't really work that way. You can get away with that sometimes.
Yeah, I will for a regular season baseball game. But not the
NFL. And I understand that. And Danny, while we're talking about audits, the audit so far so good for you as it pertains to Caleb Williams. How much did you enjoy what you saw in Game 1 from the Bears? A 59-37 win over Carolina starring Caleb Williams, the 16th best quarterback in the league.
