36:45 Dodgers

According to Dan, that means being aggressive, open-minded, and proactive taking every call, exploring every opportunity, and evaluating every possible avenue to improve the Bulls. Nothing should be off the table, including players who might typically be considered untouchable. The idea is simple: when you don’t yet have a defined league-wide reputation, you have flexibility—use it.

On the Cubs, Dan is preaching patience. Despite a three-game losing streak, he reminded fans this is the natural rhythm of a 162-game season. Slumps happen, and overreacting to a small skid is shortsighted. His message: don’t panic—this is baseball.

Around Major League Baseball, the Dodgers are set to honor two former players, Billy Bean and Glenn Burke, during Pride Night. Dan highlighted the significance of recognizing their contributions and legacy, especially given their impact as openly gay figures connected to the sport.

And in college football, Lane Kiffin made comments comparing recruiting at LSU versus Ole Miss, which stirred some backlash. Dan doesn’t see the issue. From his perspective, Kiffin was simply stating the obvious realities of recruiting differences between programs, and he doesn’t understand why people are taking offense.
