Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Jess's cookies were delish, by the way. Oh, my God.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
I liked, I think, the gingerbread, and then I had one that was like three different layers, and I didn't know what it was. I was going to ask you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Maybe. The red, white, and green ones? No, this one has chocolate on the top.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Delish. You should try some, Dan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Well, because the guy is on Feinbaum, and I said, how did you get on Feinbaum? And he's like, whatever he was saying. I don't know. I wasn't listening. And the thing is that I don't understand is he's always in the corner and he always has this insider information, but he's like, but you can't say anything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
And, like, everything is, like, a secret to him, and he doesn't go out on a limb and report these things. I'm not doubting that he didn't have the information, but he was actively telling everyone, you can't mention it, you can't say anything about this, and refused to go on record saying anything until the news came out, and he's like, I had that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
And then he's taking a victory lap, and he's like, no, Ollie Connolly had this information, and you dismissed him because he's British, which is a hate crime, Taylor. Not to make this about hate crimes right now, but Taylor hate-crimed Ollie.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
That's actually how he talks. And then, boom, he was exactly right all this time. And we almost had him on God Bless Football the same day that Taylor was on with Feinbaum, but Stugatz canceled the last minute. But correct me if I'm wrong. Ollie may be next week. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
I'm still not certain on that. Taylor, was it true? Taylor doesn't know. He can't tell you anything until after it happens. Waving a finger, not true.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
I'm trying to help him. I know that you guys don't see it this way, but I think of Taylor much like two guys think of two as a son. I think of Taylor as a son to me. Same. Taylor's like my work son. So I see Taylor and I'm like, you know what, Taylor? We need to kind of, let's go out there. Would you pardon him?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Yeah. He wasn't. Because he's telling us, I talked to three different people, and it's like, dude, you have all the information. Put it out there. He's like, I can't say it. But then they did. Then Ollie did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
So we haven't confirmed if it's true or not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Yeah, Ali's the one that put us on that list. So I have to stay on Ali's good side here. Dan Furman, be honest with you. Yes. Taylor also was telling me, and I can't say this because like anything else that Taylor has that's news, we can't report it to anyone until after it happens.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
He's going to endorse me and I'm going to endorse him. And I'm like, what is you endorsing Sam Darnold do for anyone? He's like, I can't say. Less Taylor?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
And after Ali, yeah. Ali said it was a done deal, and then he told us about a manifesto that maybe didn't, but it was fun.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
You're in a television studio. Why are you joining on Zoom?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Well, he was eating. We know that. Classic Jason. Here's an important part to the Taylor, and you can only see this on video. On Taylor, when you're saying something, you just got to go like this. You just go like this. You throw out your hands and you push yourself back a little bit off the wall. And you just make a declarative statement like this. Okay, that's good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Don Levitard. We didn't get to your guys' against the spread. You're right, you're right, you're right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
You need an Ian in your life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
But most media companies don't threaten the entities to get access. That might be our problem. I really don't want us to threaten them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Not on GameTime, though. GameTime.co. Lucy, you want to get there, you can get games here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Should we plan for like, what if Saturday doesn't happen? Like, we have Monday Bowl games. No, you can't say that. Like, the Myrtle Beach Bowl, is that fine? The famous Idaho Potato Bowl?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Ooh, how about the Hawaii Bowl?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Oh, wow. Did you guys see the Pop-Tart trophy is a working toaster this year? That's crazy. That's awesome. The Pop-Tart Bowl trophy might be the best trophy in all of sports.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
And they ripped it out of an actual Pop-Tart aluminum casing also. These people get it. The Pop-Tart bowl people get it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
great bowl dan it's one of the most prestigious bowls i'd say that like outside of the playoff that's probably like the fifth bowl right i'd rather i'd rather win that bowl than lose in the first round of the playoffs that's a great yes you get that trophy that's ridiculous do you keep that you keep that trophy right yeah i think it's not like that yeah dan there's like premier bowls that the conferences try to get like their best teams into and the pop tart bowl is one of the acc tying in premier bowl so still one of the craziest things to gots has ever said
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Your days of playing football are numbered.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Okay, punt returner. Whoa. Can I say what? Is that his name? Can I say what? Wait a minute. Listen, can I just say real quick before? One happy birthday, Dan. We're just going to move on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
You know what UM and UM fans gripes should be? Always having to play a camping world stadium for their bowl games. What a horrific stadium. I love Orlando, and God bless them for trying to make that stadium nice. But that stadium, Camping World Stadium, what a drag if you have to play a bowl game there. And every single year, UM finds themselves at a bowl game there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
It's always a different one, but it's always a bowl game at Camping World Stadium somehow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Yeah, that's not fair.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
I didn't say any of that. I said, happy birthday. And then I said, why do they have to play at the Camping World Stadium every time?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Oh, I thought we were going to talk about the other thing. Never mind.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Well, I mean, that's the thing, though, is you can credit it to Cam Ward partially. Right. And also like. If you make the NFL, don't let Billy Gilt bring you down. Why would you listen to anything I say? Braxton Berrios is a great life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Can't you just enjoy a Santa Claus-shaped drone show? Like, what is happening that you see this and you're like, Russia, drones. What'd they make over your house? Yeah, what did they make? Like an elf sipping cocoa? How'd they make a tree exactly? Like, it's fun.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Is it a Christmas carol if it's just the tune of a Christmas carol? Because nothing about that song was actually Christmas.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
I mean, it's understandable.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
So I've been writing all this down, and I'm wondering what my role is in all of this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Well, this is what I'm going to do to help out. I'm going to figure out when and where the game is, and it's in Texas at 4 o'clock on Saturday, and now I'm going to pass the baton.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
70,000 people are here, and Bob Dylan is the reason for it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
I think I figured something out. I've been typing away here on the old interwebs, Dan, and I think I figured something out. I know how to get Lucien at this game. Download the GameTime app. You create an account and use code DAN for $20 for your purchase. Terms apply. Download GameTime today. What time is it? GameTime? You just go right there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
You go to GameTime.co on the internet and then you just scroll around and say, oh, Texas football. And then, boom, it pops up and you can even choose where you're sitting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Yep. She hasn't pepper sprayed there, though. Rose should go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
Well, the actual conversation. How do you guys have a photo of this happening? This is insane. They do. What am I doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Who Broke The Bill Belichick News?
seating did someone just fart next to jess what what happened in that photo is i i asked taylor i said how did you end up on fine bomb damn it it was me i farted notes i am taking notes in the eating area there of the fact that billy has cornered taylor
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Oh, wow. How much did Mike pay you to vote for Cam Ward?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Shador got one vote for first place, I think. You would have thought that would have been me? I don't know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
So Big Board Bets is a Monday thing. There's two Monday night games. And Dan, Monday, two Monday night games means we get the BBBBBBBB, the bonus board. So we do both games. So there should be six picks. But I couldn't make a decision on the first game. So there's four picks for the first game, three picks for the second game. And I have a weird feeling where I should be feeling confident.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I'm just like, ugh. I don't know. I don't know about this one. Which isn't how you should be kind of presenting all of these picks, especially when you're doing well. But I'm like, I don't know. And I'm going to give you a quick spoiler alert. In my second game, I did some deep dives and I took the under on punts for the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Don Libetard. I may take it one step further.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Yeah, and I'm in the weird position where people from work are texting me now, like, what's the play today? And I'm like, whoa, what are we doing? But I did give away a lock of the year privately yesterday. Wow, did you? It was the Bill's Lions over, come on. I mean, lock of the year. Everybody knew that. Jeez, everybody knew that one. Stevie could have seen that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
You guys obviously love college football more than the rest of us do. I don't think I'm speaking out of turn in saying that. Was it appointment viewing for you on Saturday? Because I'm wondering if it's a situation of if things have changed or if I'm just getting old. Because I remember the Heisman used to be appointment viewing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
You'd have to sit down, you'd watch it, and right afterwards they'd debut a premiere, a 30 for 30 that you wanted to watch. And it was like a whole spectacle and a whole day's worth of things leading up to who's going to win the Heisman and then what am I going to watch right after. Used to mean something. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
And like, I don't, I, again, it could just be me getting old and reprioritizing things. But like, I just kind of like checked on my phone with 10 minutes to go in the ceremony. And I'm like, I'm going to see who wins that way. And I watched it on my phone.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I'm very aggressive there. Take it easy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Well, you can't give it to three people, so we're going to have to have a competition to see who wins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Well, I mean, in fairness, I think most people just don't think about Jason Sanders. That was probably rude. I'm sorry to the Sanders family. You've been great at field goals. Extra points, you're horrific.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Now there's another big story in the college world that we haven't even discussed yet. And it's very impactful down here. And it's Nevin Shapiro has paid his debt to society. He had his sentence or his whatever commuted. So he's done now. So I think the big question is, since he's paid his debt to society, does you welcome him back? No. Bring him some money. Granted, $930 million Ponzi scheme.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I'm sure some of that's still laying around somewhere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Like the University of Miami? Not we. Did they bring him back?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Do we have the answer as to the why of it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Well, he commuted. He basically, I think it's just time served now. Like, you're done.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Nevin... Odd use also. Nevin, obviously, $930 million.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I don't know if my dad would.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I'd do it for Tua. $930 million. That's bad, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I was going to say, if Hurricanes fans are being honest, he's good for the program. Any pub? Good pub? Is he not?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
So you welcome him back, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I told him, and we'll break the fourth wall here. I told him, I was like, as soon as he misses, I always have to run and just tweet something out right away because I know that it's coming. It's a burden. They're going to associate it. I'm like, I hate it. Poor guy. He's probably not a high right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Who cares? Life wallet. What is that? I don't know. I'm not going to ask any more questions.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I don't think anyone was disappointed. I think when we saw the six, everybody knew.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
We definitely knew who it was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Well, you also told us like a month ago I voted for him. With my first place ballot. It's like, buddy, there's still four games to go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I don't think that happened. Manny Navarro probably voted for Cam Ward, right? No doubt. If we were to guess.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
It's for the next ballot, you know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
And if he's on the sideline checking Twitter for whatever reason and he sees me tweeting about him, it's weird. By the way, you mentioned God bless football. You can vote for us right now for Best American Football Podcast. Go to sportspodcastgroup.com. Vote for us. This year, tough competition. We have the New Heights podcast. We have Mina Kimes there. We have Club Shea Shea's there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Are they decorated for Christmas? Because none of those sound like Christmas cookies to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Do they just have Christmas themes?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
And two of the Simses are in there doing something. So it's actually Nightcap is in there. And then the offensive line with Annie Ager. There's a lot of stiff competitions here. So we'd appreciate your votes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
That's the problem. You're not fixing it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Yeah, it's not Chris. It's Matt and Phil. They have a podcast together. Who cares? It's weird. Who cares? Who cares? Yeah, who cares?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Yeah. Sims complete. It's actually incomplete because they're missing the one Sims people care about.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
We actually had Chris Sims come on and endorse our podcast over his own family's last Friday. So I'm going to get that video.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Not Dolphins fans. They hate him. People hate Chris Sims. It's weird. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
It's Dan's birthday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Benjamin Button. Dead. That's the alternative. And you're not dead. And you're not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
So I'm dead, not dead.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Well, so Billy brought up. Please don't have an accident today because this would be horrible time for all of us. Oh, it would cause us all our careers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Not after we just chanted you're not dead. Give it a week. Make us look bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
The crazy thing about it is that Cam Newton has said it, and obviously have very different body types. Cam Newton is a monster of a man. He is huge. But Cam Newton has said that he can't go a day without people bringing up him not diving to get a fumble during the Super Bowl. And if it was Tua, we'd be like, no, no, no. No, no, precious boy. Don't go over there. Run away from that ball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
I mean, they're still on the graphic there, but so are the Bengals. Someone has to be in the graphic, Billy. Really? Yeah. Well, I mean, the Colts are in the graphic. They have to be. Okay. Well, I'll say this. And I'm going to go on record and say this, Dan. Where's my camera? Look this way. Dolphins have an uphill battle if they want to make the playoffs. And that's as far as I'm willing to go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Been uphill all season. Yeah. So you asked which interception broke me. It's a good question because I was in a group chat with my brother-in-law and my cousin. And I texted them and I said, this is the drive, boys. And then they threw an interception. And then the next one I said... This is the drive, boys. And then there was another interception on the first play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
But, and I was feeling bad, Dan, and I was actually texting you during the game while this was going on, and I said, I think I'm going to have to start looking into this situation because it seems as though this might be Tua's fault. Well,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
What I said was, quote, and I apologize in advance because I just need to apologize. I said, people might be right about Tua, dot, dot, dot. I'm investigating.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Yeah, so at 3.44, I texted you, I'm investigating. And at 4.18, I texted you back, investigation over. Wow, that was quick. It was Tyreek's fault.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
And it's based just on one tweet from at CK Parrot that said, Given Mike McDaniel made clear in his halftime interview that Tyreek Kill was not where he was supposed to be on that first pick off by Kalen Bullock, we know Tyreek was at the center of all three interceptions. And I said, you know what? Good enough for me. Tyreek's fault. He's washed. He's washed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
It was also two of just forcing the ball to Tyreek Kill. That third interception. You get one hand on the ball, you're supposed to make the catch. You get two hands on the ball. I don't even know what the saying is. But you're not supposed to let them come and just rip it out of your hands. That's not how football works.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
One hand on the ball, shame on you. Two hands on the ball, shame on me. And maybe a personal foul.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
Well, Billy's is done. Mine's concluded, and nothing's ever to his fault. Case closed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Travis Hunter Wins The Heisman
When I saw six for Cam Ward, I said I know one of them. Do you want Billy to say it in that voice? Yes. Okay. Yes.
