You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.
I don't know if they call it Dallas Stadium or Texas Stadium. We got to get rid of the sponsorship. So it can't be AT&T. It can't be SoFi Stadium. It's got to be Boston Stadium. It's got to be Dallas Stadium, Los Angeles Stadium. But France against Spain. Now, this reminds me of OKC against San Antonio. Most people thought, well, that's really the finals, and then we found out what happened in the finals. These are the two best teams in the world. They are the two favorites to win the World Cup, and they go against each other, France and Spain, three Eastern in Arlington, Texas. All-Star game also coming up tonight. Home Run Derby was fun last night. First of all, I couldn't find it. And I couldn't imagine being at home with Fritzie because, Fritzie, you sounded like apoplectic.
You were like, I can't find it. I can't find it. How do I find it? And then we realized it was on Netflix.
Why did I get so nervous? It's not on Fox, it's not on ESPN, it's not on FS1, it's not on ESPN2, it's not on ESPN News, it's not on MLB Network. It's on Netflix where you're watching movies and Handmaid's Tale or whatever.
I know. They had the opening day, Netflix, and then they gave us the All-Star Game. They've got to do a little better publicity. It just feels like, you know, bonds and poo holes were there. I didn't see any of this. And I'd like to think that I'm at least socially aware of sporting events, but I had no idea. And then all of a sudden it's like Netflix. And then you had Will Ferrell showed up. You had bonds and poo holes. And I'm like, OK. They're trying. Netflix is trying, trying different things. Now, sometimes you can try too hard. Sometimes you can try to dress something up and you really don't need to. You know, there was drama there. There was some star power. I thought the Philly fans were great. I love that they were booing Jordan Walker.
I loved it. Because Kyle Schwarber's in the finals there. So they're backing their guy. So it had a real something to it. And here's another thing. And I don't know if the NBA will pick up on this.
How did Jordan Walker win the Home Run Derby and why was Netflix's broadcast controversial?
But when you realize the winner got a million dollars last night. That's more than Jordan Walker makes this year. I think he makes 790. He got a million dollars last night. Slam dunk contest. The winner last year, $105,000. Three-point shooting contest, 60K. Skills challenge, $55,000. If you're the NBA and you say, we're going to put out a million dollars for the slam dunk contest, I gotta believe you're gonna get some players that you've heard of. Because as it is now, this is a meaningless moment. Now, three-point shooting contest, we'll watch, and you will get names in the three-point shooting contest. Because to be designated as the greatest shooter, or at least in that moment, means a whole lot more than being the greatest dunker
These will be marquee guys who will still compete in the three-point shooting contest. We've seen that before. But, man, I'd up the ante just a little bit based off last night. Now, Jordan Walker is not a big name. He is 24. He's in the Cardinals organization. Now, he's kind of been up and down, but he's a former first-round pick. He's supposed to be really good, and he's having one of those seasons that you would expect from somebody in the Cardinals organization because they normally have a Hall of Famer in the lineup. down through the years, I'd like to know how many years the Cardinals didn't have a Hall of Famer, future Hall of Famer, in their lineup. Because it feels like it's every year they have somebody there.
And, you know, Cardinals haven't been the Cardinals for a couple of years here. But Jordan Walker last night, that was a whole lot of fun. And I love watching Schwarber. I truly think, like in my mind, I think he's the kind of guy that will go, hold my beer, let me go hit some dingers. Right? He'd be that guy, the 12-inch softball, maybe even 16-inch softball, you know, that he would be just hitting bombs.
