Father's Day is the worst holiday in the world. I've done the research.
I already know. Let me tell you something. Mother's Day is the second
most celebrated holiday in the world. Christmas is first, so that means it's
Jesus, then your mama. You know what, Father's Day fall at number
twenty. I can't think of eighteen other holidays. Do you realize Halloween is
number six That means ghosts in goblins go before fathers all the day. It's
number thirteen. I don't even know what that is. I just know it
comes before me. That's crazy. Columbus Day is number sixteen. Celebrating Columbus
Day is like celebrating somebody finding money in your house. Where you get that
fifty dollars from our discovered it in your kitchen? Dad's on date. We
would like to draw your attention to the fact that the following content is made
up of humorous adult material and is intended for immature not easily triggered audience.
You have been warned, Hey, dom, Yeah, what's your favorite time
of day? Lunchtime? Mine? Six thirty? Hands down? Is that
is that is terrible? It is terrible. It's terrible. It's terrible.
Tilted a little bit more. That's better for everybody who can't see us.
And he's sitting here making these hand gestures that looks like he's trying to cut
balls and suck dick. Yep, and I wasn't sure what the fuck he
was talking about. My mic was turned down, So one thousand percent that's
exactly what it was. Yeah, thousand percent, couldn't couldn't be any different.
Well, his dad's on day was Episode one fifty one. I'm known,
I'm Dome. Happy early Father's Day to you, domb, Happy early
Father's Day to you, Happy late Father's Day to everybody listening to this,
since it'll be a couple days late. But we're it's for dads, So
who fucking cares? Right, Oh well, dad, Real dads don't care,
Real dads are just happy to hear it, Like that doesn't matter about
the day. That is one thing that has always been consistent with dads.
Tell me tell me something about Father's Day in your opinion, just in general,
Like, tell me tell me what a perfect Father's Day for you is.
Maybe a perfect Father's Day for me is where no kids are screaming and
yelling and fighting. Okay, outside of that. I am super simple.
I am not one of those guys that's like, oh I need to go
golfing, or oh you need to keep the kids away from me. I
want my own day where there's nothing attached to it. I want to grill
steaks and drink beers like, I don't care about any of that. I
just want peace and quiet. Peace and quiet is the only thing I ask
for on Father's Day. Well, okay, so you kind of brought it
up right, So this is like my perfect point is when we think of
like Mother's Day, Mother's Day is we get up, we make breakfasts,
We try and tailor to the mom and take care of the motherly duties.
Yes, you know, like you don't need to do the laundry or the
dishes, like we have that covered. You pamper, You take her out
for either a brunch, you take her out for dinner. There's flowers usually
some gifts. It's all about spending the day with your mom. Yes,
Father's Day day is just it's as simple as Nope, doesn't want to do
it. There it is the kids. It's it's as simple as when I
think of Father's Day, I'm like, you know, like my wife is
asked, what do you want to do? I don't know, because it's
it's kind of like my birthday. I don't really give a shit. It's
just another day. Producer said the same thing. But it's like, hey,
what do you want to do? And I don't care. Right,
My thing would be like like I wouldn't mind going golfing? Yeah, like
let me go golf with the boys. And and then and then it starts
trickling in your mind, like how is that celebrating Father's Day? I want
to be alone away from the kids, you know what I mean? It's
like, what's funny? Is is that's what you know? That's what Mother's
Day is all about. That Like, when you think of Mother's Day,
there's always something surrounding Mother's Day where it's like, oh, you have the
kids make something homemade for the mom, Have the kids make something, you
know, have the kids make breakfast. You you tailor to the mom,
and then the mom goes and she does something without the kids. Right,
But when you talk about Father's Day, it's always well, what do you
want to do with the kids? What do you want to do with the
kids? Right? It is never well, what do you want to do
without the kids. Why is it different for dads than it is for moms?
Why? Why? Right? Yeah, it's kind of like the stereotypical
gift giving like mother's you know, it's like flowers and jewelry and like,
you know, even like when it comes to birthdays and anniversaries, and then
with dads it's like here's a new pair of socks or tie, here's a
tie. I don't I can. I can truthfully say that's not the case
in my home. No, there's a great at giving gifts for each other.
The problem becomes is that she's always like, what do you want?
And I'm just like I don't know. Yeh, Like I don't because we're
simple. Well, and like I've said before, it's like we're at a
point in life thankfully, I mean, we work our ass off for it,
but we're at a point where it's like if I want a new drive,
I just go get a new driver. For the most part, if
she wants something, you know, whatever the fuck she wants, she just
gets it. And I mean, yeah, like I spoil her for a
birthday and for like Christmas and shit like that, mainly birthday because it's it's
her day. Yeah, but usually I mean if I ask for something,
I usually get it. But she has that span kind of like I do
with her birthday and Christmas. There's stuff that I might ask for my birthday.
When I don't get it, I'm like, ah shit, like I
really wanted that. But then Father's Days like three weeks away, and usually
whatever I didn't get is what's coming on Father's Day. So yeah, I
just I find it comical because it's kind of like the opening thing of that
of that comedian. It's true. It's like Father's Day is looked at kind
of as a joke, but Mother's Day is not. What you say,
second most celebrated holiday behind Christmas, behind Christmas? Yeah, so Jesus and
then your mom yep, some fake juw that got nailed to across and then
your mama. Yeah, trees come before us. Trees, trees and ghosts
and goblins and Arbor Day. What is Arbor Day anyway? This trees?
Oh yeah, plane of trees. When you said I thought you were talking
about Christmas, I was just glad you didn't say. Isn't Arbor Day something
to do with ships? I'm glad? Oh shit? Oh so, speaking
of retard. Uh, so my week was entertaining. Oh tell us,
So we get uh, we had an appointment to take Grayson down to Phoenix
to see a specialist. I got a question real quick to interrupt, Huh
did you guys drive together? Yeah? Okay, because I was. I
didn't want to ask through text, because as you go into the store,
you and I were texting each other throughout this whole trip of yours. Correct
mainly me just being a dick and sending down to memes to you and ship
like that. Hilarious sitting there talking to this doctor, you know, this
renowned doctor about autism and all the red flags that are you know, my
son has, and you're sending me these fucking ridiculously autistic memes that I had
to then choke and then my ex wife. The doctor at one point says,
so is there anything in history and your family, And without skipping a
beat, Cassie's like, yeah, well he's self diagnosed. And the doctor
the look on the doctor's face was just kind of like blank because whenever whenever
anyone in the medical field he hears oh I self diagnosed something, it is
immediately taken as a joke. Immediate eye rolls yep, you know the people.
And she looks at me and she's like, well, what are some
of your symptoms? And I was just like, fuck, do I lean
into this joke? Because I know that that's what that was like. It
was a shot from Cassie, right, So I'm like, all right,
do I lean into this? And and and like in my in the back
of my mind, all I could think was, Jordan wants to hear the
voice. Jordan wants me to break up. Every went into WIO. I
kind of pooped my pant and I have all I I'm holding to qua in
my mouth. But the fact that you have to throw up gang signs while
doing this, oh it's too good. Yeah, it adds to the It
adds to the act, you know. But I didn't. And I was
like, well, and I kind of rattled off a few things, and
I did play into it a little bit, you know, And I was
like, but that's that's not my problem. My problem is family trauma.
It's just deep, it runs very deep, you know. And and we
so but the the the whole thing went went really well. Grayson was very
well behaved. So the red flags that she said were there that she observed
were very minor. So if which she doesn't think it is, but if
he does, he it definitely has high functioning ASD, but she thinks it
is more on the spectrum of high anxiety and high high o c D,
like very very serious OCD based on some of the things that he did when
he was coloring and doing the assessment test that she had, like spelling and
math and things like that. So but the whole overall it was interesting until
I was driving home and you know, then we got a plug up pulled
over kept right outside of Wickenberg doing seventy doing eighty three is what the guy
said. But I was only doing about eighty. But he didn't give me
a ticket. He gave me one of those fucking citations for disturbing the peace
or whatever. So it's a seventy five dollars ticket, blah blah blah.
But the funny part of this conversation is he comes up on the passenger side
because obviously we're on major highway right, so I do my due diligence to
get over as much as possible to protect his life and hours he comes up
on the passenger side. Christa, we were in her car, which is
my ex mother in law. Her back windows had just been tinted, so
she could not roll them down or they would ruin the tint. Gotta be
that guy. Yep. So now they're dark like limousine tent dark. Right,
he comes up to Cassie's window. The first thing out of Christa's mouth
in the back seat is I got a gun. Yep, yep, I
got a gun. His hand went right on the fucking clip, dude,
it was. It was on his gloss. So as A looking at me,
and I went, she's got a concealed carry, dude, Just take
a deep breath. Her license is right behind me. She's gonna give it
to you in a second. Everything's fine. So as A as A,
as a firearms owner, I understand where she was coming from the move.
However, she did it wrong. Correct. What's supposed to happen is,
Officer, I want you to know I have a weapon in the vehicle.
No, what happens is the fucking driver says officer. My mother in law
is in the back. She has a concealed carry. Guess what, She's
gonna give it to you now because she has it in her purse right well,
and realistic, it was really supposed to happen. And then in a
case where you have multiple people in the car, all your hands like,
your hands should be on the wheel, yeps, his hands should be on
the desk a dash, and and Christ's hand should have been probably on the
head rest. And then at that point say there is a weapon in the
vehicle, we have a concealed permit, yeah, and then things would probably
be deskate. But when you just say I got a gun, okay,
yeah, let me if we were of different color, if it was a
little darker in that car, we'd have been done. I believe that wholeheartedly.
So anyway, Grayson slept through this whole fucking incident, which was even
better. Like, dude, like the whole the whole thing. Grayson was
out like a fucking light. Yeah. Yeah, didn't say a word.
He woke up. He was like, why are we stopped? Are we
home? Yeah? So and then uh but that was that was pretty much
my week. The rest of the week was filled with work and bullshit and
you know, nothing nothing, nothing too crazy. What about you? Uh,
it was nothing too crazy. I had like last last weekend, you
and I got to play golf with a mutual friend on Sunday and it was
a good time. And then on Monday I had the day off, and
when Ellie went down for a nap, I asked my wife, I'm like,
hey, do you mind if I go play nine again? And so
I went and played again on Monday. It was my foot, sorry,
And so yeah, it's good because I don't know if I'll get to play
this weekend with Father's Day coming up, and I know we have plans on
Saturday with family, and on Sunday we're supposed to go back and see the
family for breakfast. So I don't know if I might be able to get
out like Sunday afternoon. Yeah, for you know, a little short round
of golf. But a couple of things. One I have sold my soul
and at first I was like, these things are not gonna be as good
as they are, but for half the price, I'm willing to try them.
And my god, they're so damn comforty. We all bought crocs.
Oh no, I'm wearing them right now. That's why I fell off my
foot when you thought somebody was at the door. Yeah, why, they're
super comfy. I will say that I'm not gonna be that person that wears
them to like the store and to work and all that. But we bought
them specifically for like at home, for the pool, Like we bought a
pair for Ellie so she could slip in and out, you know, to
go play in the rocks outside and stuff like that. Elia said, Actually
it started because he asked for a pair because all his lifeguard buddies have crocs,
and so he wanted a pair because there's so much easier to get on
and off compared to flip flops, was his rational team logic, I tell
you. But yeah, they're pretty comfy. But they were Normally they're fifty
bucks, they were twenty five. So we were like, yeah, let's
just get it. You just get a pair or whatever. Did I tell
you the story about so you remember the movie Idiocracy? Right? Yeah?
Okay, did I tell you or did I say it on the podcast or
did I to tell somebody else? I might have told somebody else, But
anyway, so I was watching this thing about Ideocracy and the directors and the
writers did the concept for this movie and created this movie. And one thing
that stood out to me was they there was a point where they found these
shoes, and they were like, these are so ridiculously fucking stupid. They
have to be put in this movie. They are absurd, they are outlandish.
They are exactly what we are looking for in this movie. And one
of the directors was like, Hey, wouldn't it be funny is if in
like twenty years these shoes were all the rage and it's crocs. It's crocs,
and they are and they like, they're really big in the medical field.
And dude, it's so when I put them on the very first time,
I'm like, Okay, yeah, I was right, these are not
that comfortable. Each time I put them on, they're more comfortable. So
does that mean that they have like some kind of mind control properties? They
might like maybe maybe they got the whole GMO thing, you know, the
the Yesberg theory that we just watched Themo thing. They they are to control
and make you addicted. Yeah, I'm addicted to these shoes now addicted to
the shoes. Yeah. The other comical thing that has happened in my household
was I went and got my daughter from her nap last weekend and she's standing
by the couch and she'd asked for milk. So I'm getting her milk,
and she was in a totally good mood and I don't know where this came
from. And then all of a sudden, she says something and I was
like, what'd you say? And my wife turns around and looks at me
kind of like did I hear that? Right? And I was like,
what's that, Elie? And she says it again, and I'm like,
okay, I'm still two times not third times term right? Say it again,
and she has this smirk on her face and she says fucking attitude and
she says it in the right like. So then in the days to follow,
if she was in trouble and I'm holding her arm and I'm down at
her level talking to her, she'd just look at me and go fucking attitude.
And I'm just like which then immediately changes my tune of like I just
want to laugh out loud. Yeah, like I want to laugh so fucking
hysterically, well, especially because they say it's so cute and she but she
knows and yeah, but she knows like achievement unlocked. She knows what it
meelds, and she knows it's not good. Yeah, So and she's getting
away with it because it's cute. Yeah, well, like what do you
Yeah, what do you do? Yeah? What do you do? In
two and a half? You can't, like, you can't. You can't
do anything that our parents did, Like you can't at two and a half.
You can't pop her in the mouth, you can't put soap in her
mouth, like, you can't do anything that our parents did. So I
have a son who's fifteen, almost fifteen and a half. I have a
daughter who's two and a half. I have yet to hear my fifteen year
old say the word fuck his entire life. And she's already said four or
five times, maybe six or seven. She's way ahead of her game.
I think, I think, I think the I think the known factor here
is summer. Sorry to throw up to the bus key. Oh yeah,
it is one hundred percent. It could be me, though, hundred percent
it could be me. I say a lot. I say, I said
fair enough. But I think where it stemmed from was because Elias is fifteen,
and he knows everything at this stage of his life and has a bad
attitude no matter what you fucking tell him to do, right, And so
I vividly remember being on the phone with her like during a lunch break and
he was getting ready to go at work and he gave attitude, and she's
like, you don't have to have a fucking attitude every time we tell you
to do something. And I'm sure Ellie was right in earshot and caught it,
and she was like, achievement unlocked. Let me nap on this and
then I'll bring it out. I had a pretty good Father's Day joke,
and I cannot wait to tell my dad when he finally gets home with the
milk. That's good. Yeah, that's good. I like it. Do
you like it? I had a dirty joke, but my phone's locked and
I don't really want to unlock it to bring it up. I'm okay,
Well let's uh, let's let's hop in. So it has been a tragedy
in the world. There has been a tragedy that has happened to the world
of sports man. You know, look at fuck the Golden Knights and fuck
their fans. That's more importantly because there's no doubt about how good the team
is. They are a really good team. And there's only I believe six
remaining five or six remaining members from the original team six years ago. The
rest of them have all been pieces that have been brought in, and really
good fucking pieces that have been brought in. There's no denying it. It's
the fans that are the problem. Correct, It's the city that's a problem,
that has nothing, no care for that fucking game. But because they're
winning, it's all over everything. I literally yesterday, I was driving home
and I pull up Instagram because Instagram I do not have notifications on. I
just never have. So I pull up and I see that I have you
know d ms, and I have a couple from you. I have some
from Jake, some from Bward, and then I see some from Joey,
who like will send me stuff every once in a while. He sent me
the same thing three times in a row, and it was something but I
didn't even read it because I was so mad, right, and I said
my first sentence was fuck off. Yeah, and he was like, I
didn't mean to send it to you three times. I'm sorry, and I
said, I love you, bro, but I'll block you and you know
it, and he just sent like the laughing pride face like ten times because
he knows I'm for real, like, well, I will genuinely block you.
Like, it doesn't mean I don't like you or love you, because
I do. But I'll block your ass in the in the heat of the
moment, and then I'll unblock you eventually. Maybe depends on if you're still
posting bullshit. If there was ever a moment I felt like being the joker,
it was it was Game five, knowing they were gonna go in and
win that game. Yeah, the Florida's best players out with a broken fucking
sternum. He played Game four with a broken sternum. He's out. You
know they're done. It's over. It's in Vegas. You know they're gonna
win the Cup. It's Betman's Betman's child and his conspiracy of Vegas winning is
gonna happen. The refs are all in on it, yep. And I
was like, if I was ever the Joker, at like five seconds,
I would I would just implode that building so they never got to raise the
cup. Right, But whatever, I have a question. So granted,
the two the two wins were so far apart, right was six years?
What do you mean the two wins the two Cups? Well, they lost
the first Cup, but I mean, yeah, year one, they're five
years apart, correct, right, but I guess six. But they but
they have been a contender. There's only one year they didn't make the playoffs,
and it was last year, and it was pretty comical fashion because all
they needed was they missed by one point. Their last five games of the
regular season, they lost all five in a shootout, and in all five
of those shootouts they didn't score a single goal. Yeah, and had they
had they won one of those shootouts, they were in the playoffs, which
and it would have changed and it would have changed the entire right. So
year one they lose the Cup. Yep. Year two they get bounced from
the first round by San Jose when they were up three nothing, and then
the Pavelski play happens where he gets hit off the face off he falls legit
legitimately it probably was not a penalty, but in the heat of the moment,
ref put his arm up five minute major. Sharks score three goals and
then a fourth during that major to take the lead. Vegas ties it a
couple like a last minute to play, and then the Sharks win in an
overtime wild ending to a game right, Sharks move on to the next round.
Then Vegas lost to Dallas the next year in who lost they lost the
Cup? They lost the Cup to Tampa, and then and then Vegas misses
the playoffs and now Vegas wins the Stanley Cup. Does that Does that type
of record warrant the beginning talk. I wouldn't say the talk, but the
beginning talk of this is a dynasty for Vegas as much as we hate them,
right and again, we just we just alluded to being more of the
fans than that the team itself, you know, as a hockey fan.
But I would say if if they were to become a dynasty, then this
is definitely the groundwork to become a dynasty. Like Tampa Bay won two Cups
in a row, lost last year at their third chance, and I believe
the year before they won their first Cup they lost two years in a row
in the Eastern Finals. I'd have to I'd have to check my math on
that. So to me, Tampa is a little bit of a dynasty in
that in that period of time you have, you have a period of time
where you went to five straight Eastern Conference finals, you won two Cups and
lost a Cup. That's that's a pretty good fucking run for a team.
Right, that's a really good consistency. So it's more about the consistency.
So whereas Vegas, Vegas has in the six years they have won two Western
Conference titles, they've lost a Western Conference title, and they've won a Stanley
Cup. That's just a pretty good fucking run. Pretty good. So I
would say that, yeah, you could be right that that's a start of
a dynasty and hopefully the end of that dynasty, because we're in for a
long haul if that's the case. And I mean, just to prove our
point even more, as I was picking up some sushi today and there was
a guy with something on the back of his window and I sent you guys
a picture in the discord, Yes he did, and the guy is putting
his kids in and I was kind, I just I stopped. I rolled
down my passenger window and I said, hey, sir, you've got some
dirty shit on the back of your window. You should probably clean off.
And he was just fucking livid. He was cussing, he was cussing at
me, screw you, go fuck off, And I just was trying to
help him that he needed to take that night sticker off his fucking window.
But no, so let's talk So since we're kind of in the dead zone
of sports, you have college World Series going on this weekend right through next
weekend, and then you're gonna have you're in baseball season, but it really
doesn't matter for another three months. Yeah, we got the all start breaking
in less than a month, NHL and basketball just fit and then football starts
in about three months, little less than three months. Yeah, right,
now you've got mandatory camps and stuff, mini camps and shit like that.
So let's let's talk about Let's talk about some of the greatest dynasties and sports
in our in our opinion, we can start with hockey. Let's start with
hockey since it just ended. What do you got for? What do you
got? So I did because I I have one odd ball that people probably
won't think of when they think of a dynasty. But this is a modern,
modern day dynasty of our lives because most of the hockey dynasties were prior
to our time. Correct, there hasn't right as you were born or I
was born, that was the end of their dynasties. Yeah, since since
like the late nineties, early two thousands, there really hasn't been any longevity
dynasties. Correct, you could go with the Chicago Blackhawks ten to twenty fifteen.
They won three Cups, which they are. They are on my list.
I'll give it away their number four. So I only did six.
I've got six teams on my list of dynas that I wanted to mention.
Number six is the Oilers. Okay, they from eighty three to ninety they
had five Stanley Cups, six conference titles, six first place finishes. It
was a ridiculous run. And what I find to be even crazier and it
cements their place in this list, is that Wayne Gretzky was there for the
first four but then the fact that they still collected a fifth after that trade.
It remains one of the most remarkable feats to me in NHL history period,
just because like the whole context of that move, when Gretzky left the
Oilers, what people thought that team was gonna be, Like they wrote them
off immediately the second Gretzki was because Gretzky was so good, right, But
they came back and they did it in such dominant fashion, right, And
so to me, to me, that like that kind of cements their place
having having so many accolades in that period of seven years, eight years,
right, but after after that, I would say the only team is is
the Blackhawks, like you know, everybody everybody else for our like our true
dynasties of like five years or more, that that hasn't happened in twenty years.
Yeah, yeah, I mean because you have you have you have Montreal
from seventy to seventy nine, correct, they won six Cups, correct,
And I actually think the Canadians, So I think the Canadians are number one
on my list. And the reason why is because from fifty from fifty five
to seventy nine, which is a there's a couple of years in there that
they didn't do anything, but they had a leading school is actually fifty two
to sixty the Canadians, Yes, fifty two to sixty where they won six
Cups again correct. But then but then it was like from seventy to seventy
nine or six sixty eight to seventy nine, there was another ten year run
all the way through that was the one nine brought yeah, yeah, and
so they they had leading scorer in most of those years. They won the
Norris Trophy in most of the beginning years in the fifties. Their teams were
always well rounded, and I think they had eight or more players that ended
up in the Hall of Fame from those teams. Yeah, that probably checks
out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then you got another one on
my list was who you said, Edmonton, that's when you were talking about
Gretzky rh yes, correct, Yeah, because Edmonton was their run from eighty
three to ninety and they had five Cups in that span, five Cups,
six conference titles, and six first place finishes yep. And then you have
the New York Islanders from eighty to eighty four. Yep. So the Islanders
dynasty and the Edmonton dynasty kind of intertwined. Correct. New York Islanders kind
of started it and then Edmonton took over and finished it. So realistically,
in a span of ten years, you only had two teams win the Cup.
Yeah, you had and the Islanders or the Oilers, those are your
two teams that won the Cup yep. And same colors and the Island same
color always there for most of it. Yeah. And what was crazy about
the Islanders is they won four straight yep. And they had nineteen consecutive playoff
wins. Yeah, that's fucking nuts, dude, that's wild. It takes
sixteen to win a Stanley Cup. Yeah, and they won nineteen straight straight,
which means they they basically went on a run, won the Cup and
then still were able to win the next three games. If you put it
in a quick perspective, yeah, it's it's it's wild. Yeah. So
for me, I'm gonna say so on this list I had pulled up,
it's it's kind of comical. And so the Detroit Red Wings. So growing
up, I was a Red Wings fan and I did not change to Arizona
until I moved to Arizona, and then I just became a fan of the
team unfortunately, but I still follow the Red Wings and I still if Arizona,
which now I'm on the side where it's like Arizona can just fucking move
and I'm I gonna go back to the Red Wings, dude, And you
know what's going to go back to the Red Wings before their next dynasty starts.
Because so this list has the Red Wings from ninety four to two thousand
and two. Okay, so they won three Cups in that span ninety seven,
ninety eight, and two thousand and two. During that span where it
says ninety four is because in ninety five they lost the Cup to the New
Jersey Devils, right, and in that span of time they were basically around
six hundred is their win percentage during that whole span of time, which is
wildly high. Right. The other thing too, that I saw here where
was it? They three Stanley Cups, four conference titles, and five first
place finishes out of six and six out of eight. So they had five
President's Trophies and six total in eight years. But what I would extend is,
I'm going to extend that time frame from ninety four to two, and
I'm going to extend it from ninety one to two thy and fifteen. I
think that's fair twenty sixteen. And the reason I say that is in ninety
one they had a rookie and it was a defenseman, Nicholas Lidstrom. During
his entire career as a red wing, they never missed the playoffs. Yeah.
The year they missed the playoffs was the year that they drafted him,
right, Yeah, And then the year after he retired was the first year
they missed the playoffs. So his in his twenty or twenty one year career,
they did not miss the playoffs. In that span, they won four
Cups, six President Trophies. They lost three Cups, I believe in that
span or two Cups two because I know they lost to because they won it
in eight and then they lost it in nine to the Penguins, and they
lost it in ninety five to the New Jersey Devils. And to me as
a modern day hockey player, to have a team run that long with a
playoff streak and be able to not only just be in the playoffs because you
have teams there, but they were contenders, they were content, they were
always there was always a top two. They never came in but maybe one
year as a wild guard. And I think that was the last year,
the last year before Nicholas Legter retired. And I remember specifically, like that
Devil's team that beat them, That Devil's team was stacked, Yeah, stacked,
like stacked, stacked, Yeah, like they they they had that just
that team alone had like four Hall of Famers on it, correct. And
that team that beat them was kind of at the end of their run outside
of a couple pieces, correct, whereas Detroit was just ramping up. They
were just getting started. Yes, I'll give you even one better that that.
This is. This is why as a whole, I think Detroit is
the equivalent to the Patriots, that they are the best dynasty, because you
can go back to even farther than to forty nine to fifty five, you
know, where they had four cups in that run. They had a ton
of Hall of Fame talent in that run. In the fifties, they had
a top three score multiple years in a row. That means one, two,
end three. They had all three positions one, two, n three
multiple years in a row. Never been done, never been done again,
and it probably won't, you know. And and really the only reason why
that dynasty in the early fifties stopped was because some of those guys went to
start on the Canadians, and then the Canadians went on a run, went
on their run exactly. So. And what's crazy about that is, let
me actually pull that website back up, because there's this cool website that I
found that has members of two or more dynasties. So Hall of Fame members
of two or more dynasties, right, And if you look at this list,
and I'll pass it to you in a second, but it's got it's
got guys like Jack Adams, Marcel Bonen, Uh, who else was here,
Bob Goldham, Larry Hillman, Red Kelly, let's see Marcel Pronovost.
Right, So that's six, Terry Sawchuk, that's seven. Seven of those
Red Wing guys went on to play on other Stanley Cup teams. Yeah,
that's wild, that's fucking nuts. Yeah. So they were part of multiple
dynasties, multiple dynasties, yes, yeah, yeah, you know, some
of which were the Canadians and some of which were the maple Leaves, which
is insane. Yeah, because the maple Leaves had their run, yeah and
haven't been back since. No, the maple Leaves run was forty four to
fifty one and sixty two to six, sixty nine or sixty seven. Sorry,
yeah, yeah, So all right, so that's that covers hockey.
So you want to do basketball next since that just ended as well? Sure
I do. I do want to give a little more nod to the maple
Leaves in that time. I just said they had nine cups. Yeah,
like, they had nine cups and they finished with ten or more Hall of
Famers in that short run, right, and it's sad that they've never been
back and I feel for Maple Leaves fans, you know. Yeah. And
then the other thing that I did want to talk about, and they did
want to give a shout out to the Blackhawks because they had three in the
two thousand and nine to twenty fifteen run. They had three cups and they
did it with that was like the beginning of that thirty team lineup and a
salary cap. They faced a lot of hurdles that that team faced a lot
of hurdles, So they get kind of an honorable mention nod to me.
Right, they weren't outstanding, they weren't always in first place, but they
kind of seemed to just always pull it together. So we can move on
to basketball. Yeah, because one of the nods, like you kind of
said about Toronto is I believe if if I saw the stat right, they
have something. I think they're the second most for Stanley Cups as a franchise.
I think so eleven, yes, behind Montreal's like ridiculous twenty three.
And what's crazy about the fact that Toronto has eleven and they haven't won one
since since before I was alive, since sixties, yes, the year after
my mom was born. Yeah, Like that's wild Now mind you, when
they were winning those there was really only six or eight teams. There's maybe
ten teams. Yeah, so the pool wasn't that big. But the fact
that you've won that many, you're the second most Stanley Cups in the in
the history of the NHL and you haven't won one since the sixties. Yeah,
that's crazy. Okay, So what were you saying, we can move
to basketball? You want to go to basketball? Yeah, let's do basketball,
all right. Do we want to get the most obvious ones out of
the way because I numbered mine from least to from what I thought was the
you know, least dynasty to the best best dynasty. Yeah, let's just
hear yours. I'm not a big basketball fan. I know enough where you
know, I really have one that I would really care to talk about.
And that's about it. Okay, when I was actually young and into basketball,
and yeah, I just fell out. So let's let's hear yours.
So number five is the Golden State Warriors. From twenty fourteen to current,
They've got three championships in five final appearances. They had nine total elite seasons
and in terms of dominance, you know, their their numerous records kind of
speak for themselves. They've got seventy three reg the seventy three regular season win
season from twenty fifteen twenty sixteen they have the largest point differential for a season,
and the twenty seventeen playoff run championship run, they went sixteen and one.
It almost went undefeated in the playoffs, right, and in that year
they swept They swept the Cleveland Browns, which fuck Lebron. So you can
kiss my ass. You say Cleveland Browns, Yeah, because every team's a
fucking Cleveland Browns. Fuck them out. I hate I hate the Cavaliers.
I'm not a Cavalier fan. I'm not a Lebron fan. They can fuck
off. Number four for me is the Lakers. And now keep in mind
when I did basketball I early two thousandskers, so I combined both. Right,
So with basketball I kind of did for this team and another team.
I kind of combined both sets of dynasties because I didn't want to split them
up. The Lakers from the eighty from eighty to eighty eight, and again
from in the early two thousands. You know, they had great runs,
they had great teams. They had in the eighties, they had five championships
out of eight finals appearances. They had ten total elite years with a fifty
nine win percent rate, which is which is damn good. That team in
the early eighties with Magic and Kareem kind of helped transition the game into this
like fast break hybrid of a game. Some insane stats. So during the
decade where Kareem and Magic played together, they combined for thirty thousand, one
hundred and eighty nine points, eleven thousand, two hundred and eighty three rebounds,
and ten thousand, two hundred and forty five assists. Those are mind
boggling numbers. Okay, those are fucking out of this world numbers. And
then you know, you get into the two thousands where they had three championships
in a row at a four. You know, they were there for four
years, but they had three in a row with Jack and Kobe, right
that team two thousand two, I believe, yeh, yeah, that team
had a numerous amount of support, like yeah, and they were they all
came from what seemingly felt like no name players until they got like Ray Allen
and Fisher. You know. But one thing that was crazy about that Lakers
team is they outscored their opponents by three hundred and thirty points just in the
postseason alone. That's a lot. That's that's insant. That's a lot.
Well. I felt like the that two thousands Lakers was what have inevitably what
transitioned to the NBA what it is today, where you have a superstar players
that will go to another team with superstars to win a champion. Because at
the time Kobe and Shack two superstars, two different conferences, and then now
they're on the same team, and then a couple other pieces that joined along
with them. Yep, that was the first like superstar team and their their
attitudes clashed tremendously. Right, if those two could have gotten along, they
could have went on an insane run that possibly could have ended up being the
best dynasty of all time. Could have been, Yeah, could have been.
It could have rivaled the rest of the three that I have on my
list, So it's sure. So the next one is the Spurs from ninety
nine to to twenty fourteen, they had five championships in six finals. They
had Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, a numerous amount of other guys managed Genobili.
They had sixteen sixteen Elite years with fifty four percent win average. Again,
that's nuts. To sustain that over sixteen years, that's fucking crazy.
Yeah, here's here's the nastiest stat out of any of the stats on my
list. Okay, they outscored their opponents by nine thousand, three hundred and
ninety four points. The next closest team to do so. The next closest
team to do so is the Lakers, and it's five thousand and eight.
Yeah that's absurd. Yeah, that is absurd. So he was your last
two. So last two Chicago Bulls ninety one through ninety eight. The only
reason why they don't really get number one for me is kind of I know
who's the number one? Is gonna be quantity over quality, right like,
and you can interchange them, and I really wouldn't be mad at Yet.
They had six appearances, six titles the Bulls played in Sea. The only
two the only two years they didn't have the title in that run were the
two years that MJ decided he wanted to go play baseball. Correct yep,
And then he came back and repeated again. And in both those years the
team still did well. They just didn't win the title. Correct. They
didn't make it. They didn't make the conference finals, right, but they
the Bulls have actually played in six out of the ten highest rated finals in
NBA history, and they the Bulls averaged during their run sixty four point seven
percent nuts win. That's crazy. And then number one is the Celtics fifty
six to sixty nine, eighty one to eighty seven in the sixties. They
there was only one year they didn't win the title. Yep, they won
year in the sixties, but they didn't win well. So, yeah,
eleven NBA titles, dude, Yeah, eleven in that run. It's insane.
They had thirteen Hall of Famers in that fucking one set of block time,
just in that block time alone. We're not talking about the eighties.
Yeah, literally, from fifty six to sixty nine, fucking thirteen Hall of
Famers. Yeah, that's insane. Right, They've got countless records that were
held until the eighties until Larry Bird and Perish and Magic and Kareem and all
those guys started, you know, showing up and sped up the game a
little bit. Yeah. The eighty Celtics had three championships in five finals appearances,
with seven elite years and a sixty two percent win record. The only
ones that the only championships that the Celtics didn't win in that run were the
ones that the Lakers won in that one in that run. Yeah, like
they literally, which is why it was such a big rivalry. Correct.
Yeah, Yeah, So all right, well, uh, I think we
go do you do you even have any baseball? I didn't even think about
baby, So I didn't know this one. I didn't look it up because
I figured we would hold off until closer to like the World Series, either
the World Series, star break, wait another month or so, so we
got one more then. But there's a couple, there's a couple that right
off the top of my head you can think of. I mean, the
Yankees are obvious, Boston's obvious, right yeah, But then but then you've
got teams like the ninety eight Braves, the Phillies were there for a little
bit. Yep, Houston recently, Houston recently. If you want to talk
to Dodgers recently, Yeah, the Dodgers I'm okay with talking about. Yeah,
you know, so we can talk about that, we can dive into
that. I want to get into the stats. There's a few that I
know off the top of my head, but we'll save that for maybe another
month. Then, yeah, but last up is football, So football dynasties.
And then what I want to do at the end is I want you
to tell me, out of all the sports we just covered, who is
the number one dynasty in your opinion. But let's do football first, and
then we got yeah, we got some time to wrap this up. So
football, I think what we should do because I think we should cover football
again. Closer to football. Okay, but let's talk about the real,
like only actual dynasty that is in football, the New England Patriots. It's
the Patriots. It's the Patriots. So you have you have your runs.
And as much as I hate the Patriots, I hate Tom Brady, I
hate Belichick, they're still Jet. There's still credit due where is credit is
due. And the fact is, let me pull up my little note here
that I had in the span of Tom Brady being the quarterback. Right,
they have been to is it sixteen? Uh? In their in their history,
they've been or fifteen AFC Championship games. Thirteen of them were with Tom
Brady and out of the thirteen he won nine. Yes, and they've been
to uh nine super Bowls, correct, and they've won six, so they've
only lost four AFC Championship games and they've lost three Super Bowls, and two
of those Super Bowls were to the same quarterback, which was Peyton Manning,
so you could essentially say that, Sorryli And then they lost to a backup
correct, they lost, which arguably that defense was better than they were given
credit for. Yeah. Yeah, I still think my favorite all time though,
was the press conference before they lost the Super Bowl to the Giants,
and they were perfectly undefeated, and they actually beat the Giants in the last
regular season game of that year, and then going into that one of the
Giants players had said they were gonna win twenty to seventeen, and Tom Brady's
exact quote was, we're the highest scoring team in NFL history. You could
at least give us some credit if you're gonna say you're gonna beat us,
and give us some more points than that. They end up losing seventeen to
fourteen in that game, and it was just on a like weird crazy the
catch, right, the helmet catch is not what beat them, but it
got them to end up beating them, right. But outside of that,
as much shit as I want to talk about the Patriots and talk about Brady,
the run that that team went on around a single player, because the
team changed around Brady throughout that time. Pro obviously, right, but then
that But but you look at there's no team in NFL history that has made
a run that that long. No, Like you have you have the nineties
Cowboys, you have the late eighties to early nineties Niners, you have the
Steelers from back in the day. Yeah, but none of them, Falo,
I mean, none of them went on that run the way the Patriots
have been on that run. I was like a freshman in high school when
that run started for the Patriots and that run just ended four years ago.
And you you know, you can say the Oden out of high school for
twenty years. Yeah, that's a lot. That's a that's a dynasty.
There are a couple of things you can say are close, but what it
is is its individual conferences. Right, So like you can say Green Bay
is run in the NFC, Uh, what are they North? Yeah?
No AFC, green Bay Bay Yeah, NFC North, NFC North. Like
you can say that their dominance over that that division has been consistent enough to
say because that's a dynasty in the division. It happened with FARV and then
they took a couple of years off as Rogers had just transitioned, and then
Rogers ran that division for the last fifteen years. Correct. But but there's
caveats there because the division sucks. But they only had they only had one
super Bowl correct, and only one Super Bowl victory, only no other Super
Bowl appearance, yep, and only a couple of playoff wins. Like you
can say, you can say that, uh, you can say that Pittsburgh
had a great run in their division in the ANFC, because they did.
They won the division for numerous amounts to years or were in the contingent for
numerous amounts of years. But nobody, nobody in the NFL can say that
they have put together the resume that the Patriots have done over a twenty four
to or twenty two year fucking span. Yeah, that's it's incredible. And
granted there are a number of asterisks, whether it's the deflate gate thing,
the spygate thing, the talk rule, whatever you want to say, but
they consistently were there, right you You can't say that they were that good
at cheating for that many years without being caught to the point where it's it
stopped them from win. Right. One of the caveats that pisses being off
about Brady is that people say, well, he wanted to prove a point,
so he left, went elsewhere and won a championship immediately. Okay,
shittheads. He chose to go to a team, yeah, that had a
top ten defense the year before, right that their record didn't show it,
but they had a top ten defense. Oh and the year before he got
there, their two receivers were both top five receivers in the NFL. They
just so happened they had Jamis Winston, who threw for thirty touchdowns but also
threw for twenty nine interceptions and didn't the number one tight end or arguably the
top one of the top five tight ends of all time, top three,
go with him all time? Go with him, yeah, to win that
Super Bowl. Right. So it's like, if that's where I discount Brady,
It's like, if you want to tell me that you want to prove
yourself, go to a team where you legitimately have to prove yourself. He
didn't have to prove himself there, with his arm being as good as it
was still at his age, and he went to a team that was already
built to win. That's not proving yourself. He's not a team where he
only needed to be Vinnie Testa Verdi, right, he only needed to be
Eli Mann. Mind you, he played lights fucking out, he bawled out,
and his arm was still a fucking cannon. But the point being was
the year before they had a top ten defense, and they had two receivers
who were both top five receivers the year before. There's nothing, in my
opinion that will say you earned that championship. You proved yourself. And I
will argue that to the day I die. You want to prove yourself that
year, Go to the fucking Jacksonville Jaguars and make it to an AFC title,
not even the Super Bowl, make it to an AFC twitnle and say
you're the greatest to live ever period. Yep, fuck you, Brady.
Okay, So we'll get into more football when it gets to the football season,
and we'll get into baseball here shortly. Out of the dynasties we've talked
about, who's the number one dynasty in your opinion, that's a tough one.
It's either it's either going to be the Red Wings or the Celtics because
of the consistency of them constantly bouncing back, right, And I think I
have to give it to the Celtics just because they've done it. Like there's
another run in there with Paul Pierce and and Kevin Grant or not Kevin Grant,
but uh oh, for Fox's sake, Tall, there you go,
Garnett, thank you, you know, and Ray Allen, Like there was
another run in there that I didn't even mention with the Celtics, right,
you know, So I think I have to give it with the give it
to them because they had some dominant teams and they have consistently put together teams
riddled with Hall of Famers. But I mean, the Red Wings did it
for so long. Yeah, Like so it's it's that's a tough one.
So in my opinion being I'm gonna choose a team that was during my eras
something that I watched. So I'm down to the Red Wings from I'm gonna
say ninety one to two thousand and fifteen twenty sixteen, or I'm gonna say
the Patriots from roughly from one to nineteen, right, and I'm gonna choose
the Red Wings because I prefer hockey, and I think I think the it's
a tougher game, it's a rougher game, and the period of time that
they dominated in some of the nasty teams that they had to come and encounter
and in hockey, I think the problem is when you're talking about you have
eighty two regular season games football, you have sixteen at the time, right,
NHL you had eighty two regular season games and in a short span,
if you want to chock up there, ninety four to two. They won
the President's Trophy six times. There were the number one team in the NHL
six years out of a run of eight years. Yeah, that's wild.
They won three Cups in that span. Yeah, I mean to me that
is and almost one more and almost one more, right, and so it's
to me that's the team, the dynasty team that you had a twenty year
run of Nick Lidstrom, Tom Brady, Nick litchtrom will go down as one
of the greatest defensemen to play in the NHL of all time. Tom Brady
will go down as as of right now, probably the greatest quarterback to ever
play the game of all time. So you're you're still missing You're still missing
a ton of Hall of famers, like you're you've only mentioned Linstrom, but
they're Aserman, Federov, Shanahan, how like well how is but even then
but even still but but yeah, sure, like you can keep going.
Like. That's the thing with That's the thing with the Red Wings is the
longevity of that team. Like there's only really like what a twenty year span
maybe fifteen year span, yeah, where there aren't really any big names in
there. And that that was the span where hockey was going from you know
teams to fucking thirty teams, right, you know what I mean? And
players were looking for money, they weren't looking for the championship like that.
I think I think that's where I think that's where the Red Wings stick out.
Stand out more to me is like I said, the eighty two regular
season games to be played, but also the fact that you had at that
time, you probably had twenty eight teams in the NHL. Yeah, to
go on that run for that period of time with that many teams, Yeah,
that's pretty good. That's a wild run. It's pretty good. So
that's where I'm gonna stand. I can I can stand behind that. In
