Chapter 1: What tribute is paid to John Sterling after his passing?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human.
Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
Within probably 10 days, I put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth.

Chapter 2: What special moments did Cherie DeVaux experience at the Kentucky Derby?
Go to rectech.com, search the Dan Patrick Show for details. You can win a grill on May 15th. Chef Greg from RECTEC will be here to give it away. R-E-C-T-E-Q. Got a play of the day, poll question, stat of the day, all of that forthcoming, and more of your phone calls as well. 877-3DP-SHELL. Operator Tyler is sitting by to take your phone calls.
It's never happened before in the history of the NBA playoffs. that a team has won three consecutive postseason games by at least 25 points. And since trailing Atlanta two games to one in the first round, the Knicks have won four in a row by a combined 135 points. Stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America. So this is setting up for one of those unbelievable runs or an epic collapse.
Because if you're a Knicks fan, you've got to at least in the back of your mind go, okay, let's slow this down just a little bit here. Yes, we did blow out the 76ers. And sometimes you wonder, how quickly can you get rid of a loss like that? How much longer do you want to hold on to a win like that? Now, what you did in the win, is there something that you figured out here?
Is there something that kind of opened the door for you guys playing great against Atlanta and great opening up this series against Philadelphia? Reggie Miller will join us next hour. But something happened because we thought the Knicks were teetering on the brink when they're down two games to one. All of a sudden, C.J. McCollum is the new Trey Young. And the Knicks postseason is going south.
Yes, Marv. Well, the Knicks, they shouldn't get too happy yet because the Sixers lost their first two games to the Celtics by like 30 points in each of those games. So if there's any team that knows how to come back from bad losses, it's the 76ers. And Tyrese Maxey was not aggressive last night. I think he shot nine times last night in total.
And I thought that Tyrese Maxey, with Joel Embiid, doing a lot of pick and roll, pick and pop, all of those things, taking advantage of Brunson, Carl Anthony Towns, but it didn't happen. I mean, the Knicks got out early and never let off the accelerator. And it's impressive. And you can't help but think, you're thinking ahead, right? Can't help but do this because you don't have Boston.
You look at Detroit as, okay, formidable regular season, maybe not as formidable in the postseason. You've got your path to the finals. You're like Cleveland, Detroit, 76ers. We can get by them, and then you take your chances in the NBA finals. What was it, 1999, the last time the Knicks played in the finals against San Antonio? Didn't have Patrick Ewing.
And Latrell Sprewell was the big star back then, wasn't he, Marvin?
Him, Allen Houston. A young Marcus Camby.

Chapter 3: How did Golden Tempo's race strategy contribute to his victory?
Yeah. I remember going to a Spurs practice when Duncan got there. And I remember after the practice, Vinny Del Negro invited me down. So, you know, I'm watching this Spurs practice. At the end of practice, Duncan's rookie year, he's carrying all the equipment. So they're treating him like a rookie. I don't know if it's hazing, but he had to get all the basketballs together.
He's carrying laundry, all the towels. And you're looking at one of the ten greatest players of all time, but they treated him just like a rookie. Yeah, Paulie.
I think we may have underrated Tim Duncan's rookie year, 97-98. He averaged 21-12. He was rookie of the year. He was fifth for MVP. He was fifth for defensive player of the year. He was first-team All-NBA as a rookie.
Dang.
But he suffers from the, he was just fundamentally sound. He was just so economically great. You know, David Robinson would give you wow plays.

Chapter 4: What insights does Cherie DeVaux share about training racehorses?
Timmy never did that. It'd be like a crisp bank shot or something. And if he had a block, it was a block to keep it in bounds, keep it in play. You know, there's a difference between the guillotine and water torture. And Duncan was water torture. Just drip, drip, drip, drip, drip. And he never sought publicity. Didn't like doing interviews. Really, that whole franchise, when you think about it.
I mean, Parker and Ginobili, they didn't get much national attention. David did. I mean, David, to this day, Richie could call up David and probably get him on the show. Just a wonderful person and enjoyed talking. Timmy, even to this day, he has no interest. He's like, nah, I'm good. Yeah, Paul.
Tim Duncan is like Mike Trout with winning. No offense, but it's similar careers. Spotless, didn't want the focal point, but always in the playoffs, Tim Duncan.
But if Mike Trout had David Robinson and Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, might have played in a couple of World Series there.
Are they great hitters?
Big strike zone on Robinson. Big, big strike zone. Yes, Marvin. But Mike Trout had Shohei Ohtani four times. I know he did. I know he did. Shohei Ohtani in a slump here. I don't think he's had a hit in like five or six games. Overrated?

Chapter 5: What challenges do trainers face during major races like the Kentucky Derby?
I wonder if Ohtani the pitcher ever overshadows Ohtani the hitter. This might be the year, but I wonder about that when you talk about Otani, just how great he is as a hitter, but as a pitcher, if he is really focused on pitching, I wonder if he can not surpass what he's done as a hitter. That'll never happen, but... What if he wins this Cy Young?
Now, he's the overwhelming favorite to be the MVP again this year. Yes, Paul?
Yeah, Shoya Otani this year, he's got five starts, 30 innings. His ERA is .60. Yeah. Whoa. Yep.
Quietly. Yes. Yes, because we always, you're showing him hitting home runs, usually. But a great moment with the Yankees game where the Bleacher fans shouted out John Sterling last night. They usually do that for roll call with the players on the team. They did that for John Sterling, who passed away yesterday at the age of 87.
A lot of tributes for John, and rightfully so, because that singular voice is really rare as we move forward. You know, growing up, we always had that. Depending on where you lived, that you had that voice. I mean, Los Angeles got spoiled. Chick Hearn, Vin Scully. I grew up in Cincinnati. I had Marty Brenneman, Joe Nuxall. You had Harry Carey, Harry Callas. I mean, Joe Buck, Jack Buck.
But to have a singular voice, certainly for baseball, because baseball is more of a companion-type listening sport. Because it's daily, 162 games. And so your radio becomes your companion. That voice on your radio becomes your companion.

Chapter 6: How does the team analyze the performance of the winning horse?
And you certainly had that with John. I mean, John loved what he did. I don't know if he ever had a bad day when he was doing a Yankee broadcast. He truly loved it. And I know some people pointed out, Aaron Judge said he kind of brought Broadway to Yankee Stadium with him. Yes, Dylan?
And I think baseball, of all the sports, lends itself to radio. Like, the pace of it lends itself to radio way better. Like, I don't know if you've listened to a hockey game on radio. It's tough.
It's just too much movement.
So you can actually kind of take your time with stuff.
It's still too much movement when I'm watching hockey last night. I'm trying to watch, you know, and you're just going... I'm watching Philadelphia's up 2-0, and then all of a sudden the Hurricanes come back to win 3-2. But... I'm old, trying to follow the puck. I marvel at play-by-play announcers who do hockey on radio.
I absolutely marvel because it is constant, and you've got to describe everything. Whereas TV, you're afforded the luxury of we can see a shot on goal or a save or somebody collides with somebody. But on radio, you have to describe everything. And that's why Doc Emmerich was brilliant. First of all, the most selfless person I've ever met in this business. It was all about the sport.
It was doing it right. It was doing justice to it. That he never was going to use the same description twice. He had to have the right word at the right time. And he did it over and over and over and over. And just a wonderful person to be around. One of the nicest people you'll ever be around. But he had a gift to be able to see and say at the same time. And not lose.
He never lost himself or tried to become bigger than the moment. And I remember I got a chance to spend a lot of time with him at the Olympics in London and go to dinner with him and meet the person, just like Al Michaels. I mean, imagine that. I get to host the Olympics. It's my first Olympics, and I go to dinner either with Al Michaels or Mike every single night and just sit there and listen.
because i didn't have anything to say i wanted them to say i wanted them to talk and it was one of the greatest experiences i've ever had because i got doc emmerich who might be the greatest play-by-play guy of all time and even al who is not shabby al acknowledges doc emmerich's brilliance as well but just to listen to them talk and they have

Chapter 7: What impact did John Sterling have on baseball broadcasting?
When I said, oh, remember when the Pirates, they played the Orioles? He goes, what game? And I'd be like, game three. Oh, man, it was overcast. And I'm like, oh, my God. He was he's unbelievable. Bob Costas is like that as well. They're just certain people who have this photographic memory.
And, you know, even Doc Emmerich, when he found out that I was from the Dayton area, goes all the Dayton gems. And they start telling me about the Dayton gems hockey team. So a long-winded way of saying having those voices, it's a luxury. But there's not many left where you get to tune in each night. Milwaukee, the Brewers, they were very lucky. Bob Euchre. Yes, Todd.
And John, so you made such an impact. I thought it was great how the play-by-play voices in yesterday's games around the country were using some of Sterling's words and phrases as if they were calling a Yankee game. I thought that was pretty classy that they all agreed to do that.
I got Doc Emmerich. These are just words for passing. So somebody compiled all of the words that he uses for passing the puck. Spirits it, slides it, fiddles it, rattles it, forks it, shovels it, chips it, pokes it, jams it, ricochets it, rams it, roughs it, scales it, leads it, rifles it, directed, hoisted, pitched, popped, splatted, swatted. Finesses. There's like 80 of these. Awesome. God.
Vocabulary. Powerful. Powerful. Let me see. Dennis in Minnesota. Hi, Dennis. By the way, the trainer for the Kentucky Derby winning horse, Golden Tempo, Cherie DeVoe will join us momentarily. I asked if she could bring the horse or she could be by the horse when she did the interview. So maybe she'll be in the stables.
We're all going to be surprised because I asked and they said they'll definitely see if they can bring the horse over so we're going to all find out together.
Well, she can go to the horse. The horse doesn't have to go to her.
Yeah, she can bring him along.
But we did ask to see if the horse could make an appearance.

Chapter 8: What are the future plans for Golden Tempo after the Derby win?
Does the horse have prior commitments here?
It's very possible.
The horse is going to be on the Today Show, but you'll get the trainer. All right. What was I going to say here? Dennis in Minnesota. Oh, Dennis. Oh, I'm sorry.
Hey, Dennis. That's all right. Thanks for taking my call. I have a suggestion for Marvin. I think he should trademark the phrase loyal to the soil and sell it to the makers of Penn's underwear.
Oh, okay. How about loyal to the soil with TruGreen? How about that? Loyal to the soil for dude wipes. Multi-purpose. We're workshopping. I like you. All right. This is how it happens. This is the magic right here for our scripted show. All right. More phone calls coming up. Reggie Miller in an hour from now. We'll talk some horse racing right after this.
