What is Danny Parkins' perspective on the Bulls' recent trades?
I could do Stephen A's job, guys. Danny Parkins. QB1 party.
All are invited. Host of Fox Sports 1's First Things First. I can see paths to Seattle winning without Sam Darnold having a statement game. But I don't know that I see a path to New England winning the game without Drake May having a statement game. 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.
Ooh, 104.3 the score for Danny Parkins.
You know Danny's happy to be in FM today.
This is Rahimi Harrison-Grote on 670 the score and 104.3 the score. And we announced the FM thing with Danny. So let's talk to him now. Danny joins us via the Circa Sports Illinois hotline. Download the Circa Sports app today. He's at Danny Parkins on X. You can check him out on the newly expanded First Things First OT from 4 to 5 on Fox Sports 1. Danny, how are you?
I'm even more handsome in FM. That's what I found.
I don't think it works like that.
Yes. Yeah. Run faster and jump higher is what I was told.
Yeah, I think that's what it does, Marshall. You can take your fancy radio acumen and your television history and your manicured jawline and say that that's not how it works. But for those of us over here, I'm much more handsome on the FM.
Oh, my goodness. And Danny is on Twitch with us at twitch.tv slash thescorechicago. He's the one wearing a suit and tie. Yeah, you're the dressed up one here.
That's true. I just taped an interview with Cooper DeGene of the Philadelphia Eagles.
Did you ask him about his love life?
You know, she shot it down, so we talked about it a little, but no headline there. I just enjoy that – His podcast is called Exciting Mikes, and it's him and Reed Blankenship off of the Exciting Whites meme, which is my favorite meme on the internet. And so we talked about that for a while. I asked if he saw himself as an inspirational figure to young white people who want to grow up and be cornerbacks.
What are the potential outcomes for the Bulls after their trades?
So you guys can just stay tuned to the OT to hear his answer. It's pretty spectacular.
That is a great meme. The wine store meme.
I prefer the exotic whites over the exciting whites, but I hear you.
I laugh every time I see the exciting whites meme on the internet. Cooper flag with a dunk, exciting whites. Mac McClung. I could have done 10 minutes with Cooper just on excitement. Why hasn't Riley Moss been on your podcast? Is Jason Sehorne a mentor?
I was about to say, shout out to Jason Sehorne and Merrill Hodge.
Yeah, exactly. He's the first white defensive back to have a sack in the NFL since Jason Sehorne. I have a research department. They looked that up. It's been over 20 years since a white corner got a sack. They're like, you want that to be their first question to Cooper DeGene? I'm like, yes, I do. And so that was like the production meeting that I had this morning was about how many questions I could get off about exciting whites and exciting whites.
Hold on a second. Nikki Bella is 20 years older than him?
Oh, you didn't know the story? I didn't realize she was 42. Yeah, that's why I asked Danny.
How does Danny analyze the Seahawks vs. Patriots Super Bowl matchup?
Danny knew exactly what I was going to ask before I asked him.
I do my research. Yeah, age is just a number.
Until it's your number.
Hey, you know, it is what it is. Shots fired. I don't judge.
No, Danny's younger than me. Danny just turned 40.
I have not yet turned 40.
Yeah, I love that you said it, though, but I love that she said it because that's a shade. You were conceived during the 85 Super Bowl, so yes, that would mean you haven't turned 40 yet.
That's right. Born in October of 86, so coming up in eight and a half months or so, I will turn 40 this year. October of this year, I turn 40.
That's true. What are you going to do?
I bought myself a trip to Pinehurst for me and seven guys. We're going and doing a four-day golf trip at one of the great golf venues ever. So, yeah.
