5: Making Peace with Death
Quite honestly, it was a pretty inappropriate case for a fairly new hospice nurse to have. Definitely my most difficult. So I met Jake, and he was in rough shape. He was in my care for several months. There was a lot going on. Tension between family members. It was better that I had eyes on the situation as much as I could.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
This was a complicated case, but it was not expected to be a long admission. He was not expected to be on services very long. I completely agreed with the prognosis from the hospital that it'd be a few weeks. Super sad. You know, 29-year-old kid is clearly dying. He's going to be gone soon. So while he was in the hospital, they did a lot of teaching with the family.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
His wife especially was very knowledgeable, and she did take great care of him. Ellen was really good at determining what he needed, but, you know, it would take anyone else a long time to finally figure it out.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
She would do all his medications and there were quite a few of them. She certainly drove me crazy some days with some of the things she wanted to try or do that just weren't really aligning with hospice philosophy. Basically, she wanted him to get better. I mean, who wouldn't?
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
So she wanted him to have, like, therapy, which doesn't... Hospice is kind of your insurance will pay for hospice or they'll pay for therapy. They won't do both. There were always, like, new supplements she wanted to try. And she did want him to still go and see doctors. And she wanted him to get better.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
Jake had these horrible, horrible contractions where he would scream when they happened, because they were so painful. And you could just see his arms especially just locked in, fully flexed, his hands fully flexed, and this would go on for minutes. Just horrible, horrible, horrible contractions. You'd see muscle spasms in his leg where you'd see it so tight except for that muscle.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
He was incontinent, so he had a condom catheter for urine and he wore Depends. He couldn't eat on his own at the time. That was all through the G-tube fed with formula. Just from being in bed all that time, he would get super hot, and we had a fan. We'd roll him on the side, blow the fan on his back. His nails were just chronically infected from being contracted all the time.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
We used to put little towels in his hands to try to prevent them from digging in, but oftentimes the contractions would go right over the towel and right into the palms of his hands where it would dig in, and it was just horrible to watch, really. See how this poor kid lived day to day in agonizing pain all the time.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
Within the first couple of months, he had a particularly bad storming episode where he actually turned a color I still have yet to see again. Just making all these awful noises and pretty much like a movie. How a death is portrayed in a movie, that's how he looked.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
I remember being there at the house for a very long time that day because I kept thinking any minute now, you know, he's just going to stop breathing. Um, It was violent is really the word for it. Violent shaking and horrible noises and turning that awful shade of purple. There's something called modeling that you look for in the feet when someone is about to pass.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
It was hard to say because he was kind of all purple, which, again, I've never seen that before either. That's the only time I've ever seen something like that. His vitals were all over the place. He was hyperventilating. It was really awful to see. We certainly didn't think he was going to survive the night. You know, I'm preparing the family that tonight's going to be the night.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
I certainly didn't think he would make the night, and he did. And he made a liar out of me. Further on, or maybe a couple months after that, there was an incident where he incidentally removed his trach, to which, you know, he obviously shouldn't be here. But he started breathing on his own. By some miracle, no longer needed oxygen.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
So it was at that point that it's like, okay, is this guy really dying? Or, like, do we need to get him other sorts of help? Like, what's going on here?
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
Let's cure him. Let's get him better. And I think the stress started to take a toll. There were some days that she just wouldn't answer my calls, wouldn't answer the door. And at that point, she was basically doing it alone.
Blink | Jake Haendel's Story
5: Making Peace with Death
The plan was to have him go back to the emergency room, but it didn't quite happen that way.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
All right. Thank you.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Hey, how you guys doing?
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
So, yeah, I put on my profile that I'm a carjitsu expert.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Well, everyone thinks it's a made-up term, right? But I do it. It's a real sport. And I sent you guys a video clip of my email.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
This is how it works, right? At the start of the match, you have two people sit in the driver's seat and one in the passenger's seat.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Okay. So now once the match starts, both fighters, we just unbuckle ourselves. And we just attempt to, like, get at the other person. We just attempt to, like, subdue them in the vehicle.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Yeah, all the girls ask me about it. And they get really confused.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Well, first of all, I put it on my profile because they ask you what your job is, right? And that's my job.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Karjitsu expert. Yeah, so I travel around internationally for this.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
So pretty much all the girls ask me about it and they get really confused.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
But Catherine, she said she's actually seen it online before.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Yeah. That really helped me break the ice with it. Okay. Where'd you go? We went to a bar and it was going all right. But things started getting a little out of hand when we started drinking. Oh.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Well, she basically stood up and said, my boyfriend will take anyone on in Karjitu.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
I loved it. Oh. She actually pulled out her phone and showed me videos to a few tables.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Well, I get it's kind of different when it looks unusual and a little funny. But I've been training for this for years. And I do make a decent amount of money from it. You know, like I'm living from it.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Yeah, but afterwards, she realized that maybe she was getting a little bit out of control.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
No, well, she kept saying, you're mad. And, like, really, I wasn't mad. But I was kind of getting annoyed that she kept telling me that I was.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Pretty much, bro, she's not calling me.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
She might be embarrassed because she was a bit drunk. But, you know, I don't take anything about it. Like, I still think she's an amazing girl.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Well, that's why I called. I hope you guys can get her on the line.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
really rare to find a girl who actually knows about this and who's probably going to be willing to support me through it. You know, she's literally my biggest cheerleader that night.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
Mike? Yeah, well, you're seriously not calling me because your roommate thinks it's too dangerous? Come on, look, look, I've trained so hard for this. This is literally what I do every single day. I train hard not to get hurt. This is literally my main job, is not to get hurt.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Second Date Update UPDATE: Carjitsu Crazy
No, it's definitely more safe because if you fall, you fall in the water. Ah.
Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update

605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Is it just me being pedantic, though? Like, isn't the OpenAI problem just arithmetic? That they're just spending too much money at an insane rate.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Which, yeah, which I mean, people who listen to the show, which I think it's mostly regulars, right? They know that I personally hate the idea of let's have the government make us a monopoly because safety. Let's not forget the I mean, I am not like, you know, turning traitor here.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
But, you know, the American AI companies are the ones who brought us African-American Nazis because they were so worried about, you know, media criticism and bullshit like that. They way over indexed on safety in retrospect. Well, not only that, they spent like drunk sailors. They over indexed on political nonsense. You know, they're too busy fighting with Sarah Silverman, which I mean, come on.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
When China just – I mean the deep-seek people and God knows what else they've got going on over there are – I think they're going to eat their lunch. Yeah, and maybe Trump will regulate some safety. Trump might put up a moat. But it being open source, an MIT license, is going to make it really hard for the government to put up a moat to prevent this.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Which, if it's true that they found a way to not have to leverage CUDA, and they're not just lying and somehow black market imported the GPUs, which I kind of feel like they probably did find a way around CUDA. That long term is super bad for NVIDIA, right? Their moat has been, you know, four letters, CUDA.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I don't even know which M I'm running this. Real-time double-check. My M2 Macs, I'm going to tell you, DeepSeek runs real fast on this thing.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And I didn't need a brand new NVIDIA GPU at all. This is, and once again, Uncle Tim, right, our 3D chess player of the day, somehow comes out on top no matter what happens.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Well, I mean, this is where I'm going to turn it to you. I think all that's happened here is we guaranteed that the federal government is going to put in a new keg and let's keep the drunk money flowing. Maybe, yeah, and help everybody build, build, build. Also, that Stargate project, I decided to foolishly read the plan. Or the publicly available plan? My level of disappointment is pretty high.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah. I mean, especially if you're using, like, legacy Oracle Java, it seems like it'd be a pretty big lift.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
So, Chris, for the amount of money they're spending, right? And you know it's going to be more. How many jobs, like real jobs, full-time jobs, do you think they're creating directly? Give me like a high-low.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
57,000? No, no, no. 57.00. The gains that they're claiming are like tertiary stuff like, oh, you know, the bar in town will do better. There will be more like people buying houses. Because it's data centers and it's not, they're going to be like automated. And of course, like any other functional data center, they're going to contract most of their support staff, right?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And by support staff, I mean people who aren't tech heads, you know, cleaning, maintenance, all that good stuff. Right. Yeah. Remember Foxconn in Wisconsin? Poor, innocent Wisconsin that got just rolled. Yeah, this is going to be Foxconn 2.0.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Satya came right out and was like, yeah, I was already doing this.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I mean, I would almost guess that new projects aren't starting with Oracle Java because I feel like we've kind of moved on from proprietary languages you have to license for quite some time now, right? So yeah, sure, if you were to start a new Java project, I think you'd almost certainly use OpenJDK, right? Why wouldn't you?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Oh, I'm sure he's invigorated. I have no doubt. I mean, this is like the kind of thing you say when you have to say something and you're just deeply pissed off.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
So I would I would be I mean, the problem is you've got to get through your ex-boyfriend, Elon. But once you're done with that, because if you can get near Trump, seriously, if I was Sam, I would find whatever the Top Gun equivalent of the movie Biden saw. But like even if they were Russians in the movie, just like paint like a Chinese red star on the plane, like do some kind of like filter. Yeah.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And to scare the shit out of Trump about China and be like, they said Trump is, like, ugly and orange. I would really just mess with him and just be like, hey, you should, like, not let them in the country.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Wait, wait. Can I back that out a little bit? It's kind of funny, right? Just... Open AI did to startups by saying, if you let them have the technology and you let them compete with us, they're going to post a bunch of racist crap. Yeah. Oh, can't do that. So now he's just got to change his tune and be anti-Chinese.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
get even more powerful oh my god you you blame biden that's the move you say mr president i was gonna move faster but the damn democrats with all their stupid xyz anti-racist woke made me hold back that's the move that's that is the s-tier move that you make Because then Trump would be like, oh, Sam, I'm sorry they did this to you. Oh, my God.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And then Trump gets to tweet or social truth, whatever the hell he does, come out and say, I'm invigorating our AI market, our AI companies, and we're not going to hold them back with woke nonsense.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Mr. President, you have shown me the light. I was lost. I was making, I mean, really, treat it like a religious conversion. Oh, God.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
That was a fantastic... His hair. Did you see his hair with Satya today? It's doing some Oro stuff there. I don't know what's going on, but it's like... His hair is just for folks, obviously, a podcast, not visual. It's straight up as though he's in a battle. Maybe it's like a battle headdress kind of situation.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I'm thinking insurance companies, the government, banks, people who have ancient systems. Yeah, sure. Wes makes a good point in the chat. Yeah, they're all the way back on Java 8. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Probably. Sure, they're paying Oracle for the license because they need security updates and maintenance and all that good stuff.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
At least they didn't make you watch a Top Gun movie to scare the shit out of you.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And it's good to hear from you. He's doing all kinds of data stuff over at our podcast and on LinkedIn. We're connected. It's kind of – I don't know, man. I think he just needs to get his Hollywood video card and send Trump a movie. I'm sorry. I can't get over the fact that they showed Biden a movie and he did an executive order. Yeah.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
You know what the sad part is? I believe either of them, Trump or Biden, would totally do that.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I was going to say, this is TomCruise.ai. There we go.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Whoever showed him this film did not do it by accident. There's no way.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Really? A Tom Cruise movie? Come on, man. Isn't that great? You have, like, all the classified information. You could wake up on a Tuesday and be like, all right, guys, here's what's going on in Area 51. Instead, you're like, Tom Cruise is going to show me the way.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Oh, my God. Oh, no, no, no. How about... Really anything that's actually the actual Stargate where they take over people's bodies, that's pretty rough.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah, but it's probably one of those situations where the lift to change is just, you know, it's too much.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Thank you. That might be our first poem written into Coder Radio.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Preferably with an Apple product that then was permanently water damaged.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
So wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You can copy confidential information out of the company.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
but you can't from Teams go into the documentation. Once it's on the clipboard, couldn't you just copy it like elsewhere?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
But you can't copy from Teams to the doc, which presumably, since you said custom app, is some sort of like lockdown secure document viewer app. Okay. Well, that's pretty stupid.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah, yeah. Oh, man. So GitHub, you know, they have their GitHub actions, and I guess now they're doing forced updates on them, which, you know, you can kind of see why, right? I mean, I'm not trying to be a total curmudgeon here, but I had a situation where an old client called, hey, we want to change something a little, you know, can you just do that for us real fast?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I haven't deployed to this thing in forever. They've kind of been, you know, It's behind their firewall. They're doing their own. They're running it, right? It's just running. So I'm like, sure. No problem. Little did I know. Little did I know. How hard could it be? How hard could it be? This is a slam dunk, right? Wrong. Uh-oh. I had to rewrite my action script. Now, it wasn't so bad.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Because I got lucky that the only couple I – the ones I had were fairly minor and just the straight upgrade, they still worked. There is definitely a real possibility, and I saw people complaining on Reddit about this, that, yeah, I mean, and, you know, your stuff just breaks and you can't deploy anymore. And it doesn't, like, warn you. It just doesn't deploy. It refuses, right?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Anybody familiar with the GitHub Actions UI? Right when you push, if you open the GitHub Actions UI in your browser, it just tells you straight out, I'm refusing to push. This version is deprecated. Blah, blah, blah. You were warned, basically.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Okay, so that is a maybe viable thing for companies whose product is their software, or when you have a valid maintenance contract, which me and this client do not.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
So it put me in a horrible position. I did fix it, but then I had to go be like, so this is going to be more money, right? I had to call them and be like, you got to pay me more money. Not fun. Not a good conversation. I mean, they were fine. I got to pay you more money. Why exactly?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Well, because, you know, the quote unquote open source thing we're using on GitHub decided to just like deprecate that version. We had to do an in-place upgrade.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah, I find this incredibly irritating because, you know, I know there'll be the alpha nerds out there who are like, well, you know, you got to keep your stuff up to date. Have you ever sold anything yourself is what I would say to that person. Because people, particularly non-technical business people, hate paying for maintenance contracts.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Because it's true, like if you've done a good job and there's not a lot of issues, they're paying you every month or every quarter to do nothing most of the time, right? Just routine updates and, you know, checks and a little bit of maintenance here and there. But what happens if you don't have one is you're either doing the work for free as the vendor, right? Updating to match stuff like this.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Or when they want to change something small, it's a bigger job than anybody would expect.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Which was the case this time. So I don't know. I think GitHub, which is weird because they're a Microsoft company now, really needs to, like, sure, put up the nasty warning that this is deprecated. And that's what I wish they had done. Like a big red... You can pump it into my Slack because that's how I do my CI deployments.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And then I would take that warning and go to the customer and say, we really need to update this, and this is what it would cost to do that.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Well, no, no, no. No, no. They did that, right? But nobody had deployed anything for 90 days because they were just running it. Right, right. It should run indefinitely. And the warnings should just become increasingly aggressive until you say, we're not updated. Use the magic S word security, right? That is the way you get business types to upgrade things. Just say security over and over again.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I mean, it wasn't a big job, right? It took me like an hour, but it's just, I hate this kind of thing. Maybe I'm a little scarred from my bad old days with my Mac app.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah, it's just not, you know, especially in today's age, there's always like SaaS salespeople sniffing around looking to get in there. And yeah, I don't know. I think GitHub needs to maybe go to, not Cupertino, go to Redmond and talk to some of their Microsoft colleagues about legacy support.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Go to alice.dev and let me know if you want anything automated or data management.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I'm so dramatic. It's fine. It's really fine. Amazing panic, though. CNBC was on fire yesterday.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
And then on Monday, they lost $600 billion. Well, you know, listen, you win some, you lose some. You know how it goes. No? That's not how we feel?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah, I mean, you know, I did play around with it some. It's not terrible, right? And I particularly like that it's open source. MIT can run it on your machine or, you know, your servers. I think you make a good point about the money, though, because I think that's where the rubber meets the road or the cash meets the cashier's machine, right? Yeah.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I have, and I think you've agreed with me pretty much, we've been on our hobby horse here that the math doesn't seem to be mathing with the AI investments.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Hang on, Chris. Hang on. So no chevrons are encoding? So we're just going to – all right, screw it. Send SG-13. We don't give a shit about them anyway.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I mean, come on. Right. That's what I'm asking. Well, we can't.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
You know, it is the year of the snake, Chris, and you got to strike.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Wait, Chris, we have to be positive on DeepSeek, which I keep calling DeepSync, and I had to proofread my stupid blog post like 10 times because of that. CB in the chat asked DeepSeek what it thinks about Coder Radio. I think you should read that out. Okay, you ready? Go.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
If you can't trust the Chinese AI about your podcasting choices. Honestly, who do you trust? You got nothing. So I like that. But kidding aside. No, I mean, it's open source. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Oh, no. I wrote up my little brief for executives, business people that I send out and I post on the Alice blog.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
uh yeah i mean the the big drawback to deep seek is that is in fact chinese right and there's always going to be i would say until things calm down hopefully they do a kernel of doubt right i was you know we don't have it in the doc today but uh you know there's a vs code uh fork out of china using their own ai powered stuff too that i just find highly suspicious I don't know, right? Like this?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah, of course. I think being MIT licensed makes it a little more trustworthy. I'm not sure that I would want to use a, are we calling it AI as a service now? Is that the term?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
It's a term I've been using, but I don't know if it's like a thing.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
Yeah. I mean, I think there's a big difference between, you know, I am sure there are hundreds of people auditing this code right now that's on GitHub.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
So why wouldn't this follow the trajectory that all other technology trends, since we have been doing the show and even before, of unless you are in a regulated industry, i.e. the military, certain banking things, certain medical things, right? Yeah. maybe certain avionics and necessary infrastructure, that you always end up going for the cheapest solution.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
We have a decade of me bitching and moaning about people not wanting to do Objective-C native development or pay for it, right? So you're suggesting this was probably inevitable. I am pretty skeptical of our friends over in China, right? Because, you know, why wouldn't they do everything we've done, basically? Yeah.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
But something like this, that's MIT-licensed, I mean... Oh, can I go way out on a Naboo limb here?
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I think this is the first thing out of, quote, AI, that is potentially... I'm not, like, putting my Gungan flag down. But potentially... an opportunity for independent developers to actually leverage this on their own products and their own IP where they're not paying what is effectively a tax to open AI.
Coder Radio
605: The Democrats Behind DeepSeek
I know someone's going to scream Lama, Lama, Lama, Red Pajama to me, but Lama's not that good. Lama, it's just not there. Yeah, it's not as good. In fact, I A-B tested Deep Seek, not Sync, Deep Seek, against Lama in that beautiful LM Studio app you shared with me. And it's just – there's no – it's not a contest. It's like the New York Yankees playing a little league team.

Now, as part of the cleanup effort, the state of Florida and the counties, whatever agencies are in charge of this, they test the content of the sewer water for various diseases. Oh, God. Oh, we're proud to have our brand new variant of new dominant COVID that is spreading like wildfire here.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Well, you and I have been predicting that that COVID thing wasn't a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Yeah. So I'm getting very... Now, Florida, just fun fact about living in a very hot place, our seasons are... people go outside in the winter and stay inside in the summer.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Right. So like COVID transmission is worse in the summer. So the hope, and this is like the positive spin the paper put on it is that, well, we're coming to the cooler season and that's great because you know, when the North gets it and everybody else gets it, it'll, we'll be good. We already went through it. You probably had COVID and sure enough, they've been testing people.
Coder Radio

A lot of people had COVID and didn't know, right. This new version. We have no fat in the economic buffer here to take another hit like that, even if it's not two years, even if it's three months, six months. I mean, I can only speak for myself on this, but... All those COVID business reliefs were so crooked. The companies got a lot.

A lot of little guys, myself included, are being forced to pay back money they would not have taken had they not been solicited to take it. I would have simply laid people off. And I'm being compelled to pay it back with interest, which is bullshit because the people I kept employed all got very good jobs anyway. Right.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
They left naturally when the when the you know, whatever, because they were young and they got better jobs. And I'm left. Basically, I kept them on and now I'm left paying for them again. So this is where the limits of government intervention are minimal, let's say, right? And try negotiating with the IRS. It's fun.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah, I mean, let's start, I think really this came about with the rise of GitHub in a lot of ways. And Git, right? It doesn't have to be GitHub, but I think GitHub is probably the most known and primary platform. You know, as development teams started using more decentralized source control, right, instead of, does anybody remember Bazaar? Huh?
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Okay, cool. And GitHub started building more tools in. At the same time, we had the rise of Rails, which I think... I know I'm going to get some crap. Some people are going to yell at me for this. I actually think the Rails evangelism for things like TTD and deployments with automated tests running is a really big part of it. I mean, Rails really...
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
We could do a whole show, a very controversial show, on how I truly believe that Rails actually influenced a lot of what we would consider modern web development, particularly during the period of the rise of DevOps in the aughts. I mean, MVC, right? You only have ASP MVC because Rails exists. Then Spring Boot. Suspiciously, Rails is similar. Sorry, Java guys, but that's where we are.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Django, right? Do I have to keep going? It felt like there was a sea change where the role of, let's say, senior developer and IT admin were starting to overlap quite a lot, right? Yeah. So what was happening is... Now, I think you'll have a different perspective, Chris.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
But I feel like a lot of companies were trying to trim kind of more experienced IT admins and make their admin department more like the help desk people. So they would pretty heartily embrace this idea that the developers themselves would deploy the applications. And that coupled with the Rails-inspired love of... Remember, it's a big deal, right?
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
One of the tenets of this kind of deployment philosophy is you're deploying all the time, where before this, the standard was, oh, man, we're going to be deploying this week. All right, everybody, nobody can take vacation, right? It was really all hands on deck. Yeah, yeah. Where this is, you're deploying... I mean, I know a lot of places want to deploy every couple hours. It's kind of crazy.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah. So, you know, it eventually became that your Docker, Doku stuff could be deployed with just a config and a YAML file.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
So a thing that often happens in more complicated applications, though, is you do end up relying on some binary software that just needs to be on the production system. Oh, yeah. I'm not going to say it's not possible, but it's not necessarily what these YAML file-using tools, i.e. Doku, for example, which is still my favorite, are trying to do.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
So, I mean, I got to give one to the crap people today. And the Go people, actually. I don't know why I'm promoting SeaweedFS so much. I just love it. I don't get a kickback or anything. I'm just really excited about it. It's a flat file storage solution. Mimics the S3 API. I've been talking about it for three weeks now. You should go check it out. It's written in Go.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Is that what you mean? Let's-a go! Yes, yes, that's what I mean. So, yeah, I mean, you might have to install Go dependencies, right? Or whatever, depending on how you do things.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Before you jump there, one more positive thing, and then I'm going to join you in dunking like Michael Jordan here. All right. Docker was huge for DevOps, and Docker and the whole ecosystem of container orchestration tools that spawned, such as Kubernetes, huge. And we called it, and I'm never going to stop reminding people of that. All right. Go on. Take your dump.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah. I mean I think the hot air got a little too hot too fast. But, you know, so honestly, when you played that clip, the first thing that popped into my mind was Master Yoda. Fear leads to anger. So with that said, Procreate competes with Adobe, who are just the worst. I'm sorry, but you guys are like dicks of the first order.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
So isn't this just exactly what happened with like Agile, right?
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah. But, you know, Agile, the original Agile manifesto has some very, very strong points. And then the consultants got involved.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I would even, and I know we've gotten over the years some negative feedback on this, but that's okay. Everybody's opinion is welcome. Even Egon's. Although Egon doesn't actually care about this. The testing stuff. Testing became the same thing where it went from, hey, we can automate some testing that will catch regressions. Great.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
You have to test 100% of your code, and it becomes like a religion. And there's like TDD and BDD and Gandalf the Grey DD consultants that you can hire. It's like,
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Anybody who's a consultant, I mean, unless they're a dev calling themselves or an admin calling themselves a consultant, if their whole job is PowerPoints, just, you know, maybe just take your team out to dinner.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Are you sure he wasn't, like, tabbing out to Miniclip or something like that? Maybe when I'm not looking. Maybe he was aware. Yeah. Yeah. So DevOps, it's where are we now? I think we should wrap it up there. Where are we now? How do you feel? You're the system admin. I don't feel like anybody talks about it anymore. Oh, contrary.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
They once. So I feel like the people who talk about it now, even the evil consultants got kind of shellacked. Yeah. By the the we used to call them platform as a service. Remember that pass, which always reminds me of pause the Easter die, right? The Easter egg die thing. But it's like D.O., our beloved former sponsor who I use all the time. wants to get you to use their application framework.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
They have a name for it, but it's basically selling you DevOps that is specific to them. Amazon is more than eager to do the same thing.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
It's cloud. Well, I would even argue Lambda and Microsoft, whatever, Azure Functions, all that stateless, serverless, whatever crap, that's just DevOps taken to its logical conclusion. Don't even worry about a server. Just give us your function. We'll throw it up there and we'll charge you three times as much to run it every time.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I have a confession to make, though. Okay. So my choice is always like D.O., right? Yeah. Like if it's just like a client who comes to me and says, we don't care. Get it done. You know, tell us what to do. I actually, if I'm not given the choice, I prefer Azure to AWS. Which feels like blasphemy, but I just do.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I find it more, I mean, it's very Microsoft, but I think the correlation, maybe it's a correlation issue of a lot of these companies I'm working with are very deeply into the SharePoint Active Directory world. So just being on Azure tends to, one, it's easier to sell to their IT people, right? It's not a scary new vendor.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I don't know when Adobe became super evil, but... I think Flash. Flash. Yeah, I guess so. Really, the Creative Cloud stuff really just chapped my ass a little too much. I can't... I don't know. I reflexively support any competitor of theirs. Yeah. I don't do a ton of design stuff. I contract most of that out now.

Yeah, so well done, Uncle Tim, on the existential crisis product.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
So, I mean, but we still, TMB still has a Creative Cloud license because you have to, right? Someone's going to send you a Photoshop or an Illustrator file. And that's just the way, like, it doesn't feel like a product choice. It feels like a tax almost.
Coder Radio

you know it's going to run its ass right off the table.
Coder Radio

I don't. This is a, you know, your buddy Marco Arman on the ATP show was actually pretty negative on Apple, up to the point of saying they might need new leadership. Really? Yeah, it's, they've gotten, they've gotten so big that making that number go up and to the right, I think is just a big challenge for them.

They'd love one more moat. Give them another moat. Why not? So Microsoft's defense, I'm going to make their case. I'm not saying if I agree. I could see a lot of people are saying it's disingenuous. The problem is they were forced to allow this. If Microsoft had their way, no one would have this kind of access.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
And would the EU force them? Which I got to be honest, if I'm Satya, that's exactly what I would say because I want to get the EU out of my knickers, right? I want them out of my lingerie drawer.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Right, what you're suggesting is making it easier and less dangerous for the thing they don't want to be done to be done. Why would you ever do that? It would be like me saying, never mind, I'm not even going to suggest it because I don't want to give anybody ideas. I don't like lawyers. I think lawyers are some pretty slippery folks.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah. I can't imagine Microsoft couldn't come up with some... plausible case that CrowdStrike has caused them damages? Because I think the answer is you sue them into oblivion, right? Like basically you go Peter Thiel, Hulk Hogan. This isn't a suit to recover money. This is a suit to end this entity.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
And if I was Microsoft and I need the love of my life salary in a minute, I'd go right back to the EU and say, look what you've wrought. Ah, look what you've done.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah. I mean, seriously, f*** them. What have they got? Nothing. They have their regulations, but they're on a track down the toilet.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I'm sorry, but China, America, even Russia, to a point, you have to listen to. But I don't know. I... Basically, they want to be the local auditor. It's just such a scummy thing. Not in the EU anymore, but Chaucer, you guys are like the partners. You're just going around trying to tax the shit out of everybody and say, oh, you can't do that, you can't do that, but build something of your own.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Where's your Microsoft? Yeah, where's your big tech company at? Right, and I agree we do need some regulation, but it should be done by us. And that regulation should be in the form of breakups.
Coder Radio

Xbox, instead of Microsoft just destroying it like they are, they should just spin it out. If Azure was its own company, Office its own company. Office and Outlook together.

Right. Or all Microsoft's consulting services that they do would be one of the biggest consulting companies.
Coder Radio

Yeah, I mean, I actually think Windows would probably be one of the weaker ones.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I think you'd stick Windows with the… Office, probably. Office, yeah.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Apple's the harder one to break up. I mean, Vision Pro should be its own company just so they can write that shit off and be done with it. No kidding. Take the loss. Take the tax break. But no, I mean, no offense to our EU listeners, but this is kind of… I'm hyper-sympathetic to the Microsoft case here of, you made us open up our kernel. What did you think was going to happen?
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Which, if you knew what you were talking about, you would know is a crazy thing to do.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Oh, Satya's too nice, because he doesn't want to draw a negative, because they're doing a bunch of other crap that they probably should be regulating for.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
But if you really look at it, it's... I don't agree with everything that was written in the op-ed, but was it – who was it? It was a Paul Graham or Peter Thiel. One of them wrote an op-ed. I think it was in the Wall Street Journal. Someone will fact-check me on this and where it was.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
But they made a pretty strong case, and they were all over Twitter with it, about why the EU doesn't have a Microsoft or an Apple.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yes, a couple weeks ago. Now, the case was awfully self-serving because they kept mentioning crypto. But, you know, it does make me wonder because, like, how come Canonical never pulled it off? Right? Canonical's a big company, but they never made it. My beloved SUSE just seems troubled these days. You know, what happened? Business?

Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah. I mean, we've been talking about this for years now, right, that ever since the mobile app boom, I feel like the industry has been looking for the next big hotness that would generate outsized returns. You know what I've realized, Mike?
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Yeah, no, I absolutely believe that. I mean, I don't know what to say. It seems pretty obvious to me. I mean, have you been grocery shopping recently? Oh, my gosh, yeah. Like, I wish I owned a chicken coop, honestly.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
But it's up on the basics. It's stuff you really – you're a forced buyer in a lot of ways.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Maybe. I mean, I just I would push back a little bit because we've also heard tons of people. Even in our small jobs chat room, which I would encourage people to use because it doesn't cost you anything, right? Whether you're the employer or the prospective employee. And we don't get anything. Do we, Chris? I don't think we get a damn thing from that. No, it's just a matrix chat.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
It's a community thing, yeah. So a lot of people have gotten laid off, right? There's been... I mean, I would say yes, if you if you were making, you know, $80,000 a year or something, it's a lot easier to take the hit than than somebody, you know, like, let's say a bartender or, you know, waitress during COVID. But it's it's still like pain is all relative and it still hurts.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
So I agree with you. There's also, we've talked about this before, like classes of tech people. Like, yeah, fancy pants guy who went to MIT and then got a job at Google and is really upset because now he has to show up at the office and he can't get his massage every day. Well, I agree. I do believe work from home is actually a good idea for a lot of stuff.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
It's hard for me to sympathize with someone who started off making that much money with that kind of perks. Yeah, I don't know. Drunk money is bad. I don't even know what to say. The zero interest rate drunk money was really, really bad. It created this whole situation. And it's coming back, baby.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
It's about to ease up. And that won't fix it. That won't fix it right away. That's exactly where I'm going with this. I'm just going to use my drunk money analogy again. It's going to ease up. So are we going – are we – and I don't mean we. I mean let's be honest, the fancy VCs. Are we going to learn to moderate our trendy chase the new hotness habit?
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
Well, they have – right. Exactly. You got it exactly right because we went from pensions to 401ks and Roth and regular IRAs. And this is – Mike and Chris teach why you really wanted a guaranteed benefit pension and not a 401k. But hey – Unless you own the company, then you definitely want the 401k or the Roth IRA.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I don't remember which one is the most tax-advantaged one because you can defer your income tax and not pay high – especially if Democrats win – That's an opportune time to tax-free invest in your retirement, which lowers your taxable income that year, and you can stay below that ever-critical $105,000 mark. I don't know what it is.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
I know Trump changed the brackets, but there used to be a mark where $1 over your bracket changes, and you're in a lot of trouble.
Coder Radio
585: From Ops to Dev and Back Again
The problem is you can't go below zero, right? That was the wall. That was the corner they put themselves in. They went to zero. Zero is zero. Yeah.
Coder Radio

Which, honestly, is not crazy for us, for small businesses. That's a reasonable thing to do. I mean, I wouldn't go balls out. So, can I fry some alligator bacon? Please do.

I really think in our political class, there is this wave that the social media platforms really did decide one of our recent elections.

So I will say this issue is such a dumb issue that it's very specific to the way RubyMine implements RuboCop suggestions. RuboCop, by the way, is a linter similar to, I don't know, like Flake or something like that in Python, where it tells you, your code is right, but, you know, geez, you should be using this syntax. It's more modern instead of your old-ass way of doing it.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Yeah, like if you open VS Code, I have no problems, which tells you kind of, again, one of the weaknesses of WSL is the tool's got to keep up. No one keeps up better with their own tooling than Microsoft.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I am going to steal that phrase, sir. That is good. Also, I just want to say small talk does have a successor language. You may have heard of it. I want you to be objective about this and see the truth.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
See, the R data people are making so much money. Yeah. They really just, I mean, honestly.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
You know what? I will install GNU Step. Although it's still Objective-C, isn't it? Never mind. I forgot the name of the Smalltalk. Is it Pharaoh? Someone will correct us in the feedback. But there is a Smalltalk thing you can still run. pretty easily on Mac and Linux. I'm sure it runs on Windows too. And I will do a stupid Jar Jar thing in Smalltalk if Smalltalk can win.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Yeah. Just a reminder. Florida is as big as most of the United Kingdom.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Everybody thinks Florida is small because of the way it's usually rendered on U.S. maps. It is not small.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Oh, I mean it's like cancellation, but with actual legal weight behind it now. Yeah. Now, having said that, something – obviously these kids need help and to be punished, right? To be clear, I'm not super pinko comedy. Like, yeah, you do something. You make a threat. You're going to get the hammer. But maybe being a juvenile and in this case 11, you shouldn't be paraded publicly, right?
Coder Radio

Well, if you fly on a Super Saiyan alligator, it's much faster.

There it is. Battery changes every two to three years. I was wondering how he did that. Okay.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Can I take a creepy diversion? Yeah. So my boy has decided to watch Minecraft videos on YouTube in my office, right? My home office. Sure. I've reluctantly let him. Google has figured out that likely if I open YouTube on my laptop, It's me. So it surfaces all like, you know, the political stuff I watch or big history buff, right? All that stuff. Some of the, you know, the gaming stuff.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
If it's in here, which I'm in my home office now, it's basically exclusively showing like kiddie YouTube stuff or kiddie, excuse me, kiddie Minecraft stuff. Fascinating. And it must be fingerprinting the device and saying, well, on this device, they watch this.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I think the pre-order is down, right? I mean, we've seen historically since we've been doing this show that the biggest way to get to kind of juice iPhone sales is a new form factor.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
A significant difference in case, not just size. So that's got to be it. Also, I would say that there's not a lot that's really new here. I'm on a 14 Pro Max Shabangabang, whatever they call it. And I'm not upgrading because I don't need to. Right. I'm a techie. I do a tech podcast. So why would I imagine the normies out there? I just I don't see it.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
It seems like it's a pretty it's a pretty iterative product. Even I'm two generations behind and it doesn't seem that different. Right.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Well, so I think it does, right? So this is the problem, right? Everybody makes mistakes, but in particular, children make mistakes. That's kind of – we call that growing up. And can we be old men for just a minute? I feel like we are already. I was a huge nerd in high school, right? I got picked on. I had a hard time. And then one day, somebody said something – Gross about my mother.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Yeah, it just, it doesn't. Now, I'm hoping that the next iPhone has something. I mean, by that time, my battery will probably start being terrible.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I would totally get a foldable. Yeah, because then it becomes like a small reading tablet too.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Go check out alice.dev and check out Linux Unplugged. I like this week's episode.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I turned around and punched him in the face. I'm a little younger than you. So they took violence seriously back then. So I liked the cops game, but I was okay. Nothing really happened. The cops were like, this is stupid. It's a fist fight. To me, that is part of growing up, right? Boys in particular, they get in fights. They insult each other. They do aggressive things to each other.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
They say aggressive things to each other. And it's bad behavior, no doubt. But is it – I mean how did we get from Chris made fun of Mike or Mike made fun of Chris and somebody ended up with a bloody lip, which is all it used to be. I mean I'm sure maybe – I don't know if you directly have this experience. But boys got in fights and surely in your school as well.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I think the maximum I ever saw was like a bloody lip. And when I say ever saw, that was me. So that I did that. So I get the fear, but we've become so – And this ties into the Larry Ellison thing and it ties into the open AI safety thing where I'm actually on Sam Altman's side for a change.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Get out of there. Well, so I don't know if you know that Florida is crazy. I've heard, you know, tons, tons of our schools have had shooting or otherwise violent threats since Friday. Oh, like just since Friday? Since Friday. Yeah, tons. Like it was – my little town here was like lockdown mode. What's happened in the last few days? Do you know?
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
So scared of these kids getting like a little pinprick, we act like it's a sword through the chest when I think we haven't let them – and again, I'm going to say in particular boys and I know I'm going to get shit for this. But like boys, especially going through their changes right through puberty, there's an amount of aggression that they need to learn to either –
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
You know, suppress, control, or just, you know, handle, right? Your hormones are on overdrive. You can't even like get a shouting argument now without getting suspended. And God forbid you say a naughty word during that argument.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
and now it's, oh, there's therapists, there's this, there's that, when now they're killing each other, or they're threatening to, or they're sitting in a dark room because they never leave their house, posting, frankly, insane things online, which leads to a huge expense for the people of the county, and I think a wild overreaction of the community. And I understand the fear, right?
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
What happened in Uvalde, what happened in Georgia, terrible. But the only thing that – the prof would blame social media, and I think that is a part of it. But we also changed how we handle – I'm not going to – I don't want to get us explicit tracked, but let's say two boys in middle school say, F you, F your mother, right? Oh, you get in trouble for that. Even back in our day, right, Chris?
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
You got in trouble for that. Let's say somebody – boy B shoves boy A. You get in trouble. Now the police are there. There's anger management. There's therapy. It's – It's overboard.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
And we've created the situation where these kids now, instead of just getting in the shoving match or the fist fight or the shouting match, they go to crazy online threats that given the very few that do these kind of things. I mean, I understand why the sheriff's department, especially like this kid in my district, taunting the sheriff is very stupid. Right.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
It's it's this man's mission now to get you. and he's elected, I would say, and so is the DA, and so are all the judges. So when they catch this kid, which they will, I have a feeling if he's old enough, he'll be looking at some, shall we say, older gentlemen in prison that might want to teach him a few things that he probably doesn't want to learn.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
What's going – I mean – The one nearest to me where one of my stepkids goes to school and it's the same district as my youngest is a kid went on the internet, posted a threat that he intended to shoot the school up, right? Yeah.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I mean he's just – he's so clearly a carpetbagger in this situation.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
That's like the crazy people who say an armed society is a polite society. Yeah, because somebody tailgating you should end in a gunfight.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
It's the liberal version of that, right, where the conservative one is have all the guns.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
I could totally see that, right? Yeah. I mean, I go back way into the past with this. When I was in, let's call it middle school or high school, I had a couple – I knew them, right? It was a smaller town up north. They weren't bad per se, boys, but they were a little hyper, right? They liked to do – they were – very traditional school I went to, right?
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
So sitting in rows and sitting there for hours on end and being told what to do and yes, ma'am, yes, sir was not exactly – Their wheelhouse. And then a magic little pill called Ritalin came along. See, I think the problem is you and I are old enough to remember what this was like before. And people just actually dealt with the kids and taught them how to control themselves naturally. Yeah.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
They don't like that. Right. Of course not. Right. Correctly, they respond pretty aggressively. Well, as the sheriff's department is clearing the school, this person decides, I'm assuming it's a boy. That he is going to follow the media, the social media, the local news, and taunt the school and the sheriff. Oh, man. You're kidding me. Very poor decision. Yeah.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Well, you kind of do, right? They give you like – they've always done that. They give you notes. I mean – but yeah, you're talking about – That's what I'm saying. You're talking about like act like on their device as spying.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Yeah, so I think that could actually happen. My big concern with this particular case down here and all of them down here, but I think a lot of states are like this. In Florida, like I said, the sheriff is elected in every county. The judges are all elected. And the DA is elected.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
No one who is running for election wants to be the guy that believed a kid who made a stupid Facebook post or Snap or whatever the kids use now or TikTok, right? And said, I'm going to give this kid a break and just force him to go to therapy or something like that instead of charging him criminally. No one wants to be that dude.
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Because your opponent in the next election, I mean, the ads write themselves, right? I could see the local Tampa Bay CBS and Fox stations running them day in, day out. So what they're going to do and what they've been doing is treating children like they are Osama bin Laden. And that's pretty bad. And I know people are going to be like, well, if it was your – but like it was my kids, right?
Coder Radio
588: Hulk Smash “PUNY DEVS”
Like it was the schools my kids go to. I don't – I'm not happy that this happened. The only reason I'm making this a public thing is because the wildness of the overreaction. And don't get me wrong. I got very little work done. I was nervous as a cat. I was texting my stepdaughter. I checked my son's school's page. They said we're not – we're locked – we're –
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Okay. All right. So, you know, Chris, my internet service provider only charges me $95 a month.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
But it's the most annoying one I use because it constantly requires me to reauthenticate. I'm like, it's show notes. I don't care. Yeah. Yeah. Like I care, but it's not like there's going to be like, you know, private keys to it. Like there's nothing secret in the show notes.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
It's not substantially better. I mean, I totally disagree. Just, like, get better bandwidth, man. Oh, wrong answer?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Oh, no. But I am going to be paying more effective Thursday. I'm sorry, Friday. Friday. Okay. Tell me why. Because I'm going up to 5x5 gigabytes.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I called them. The lady was like, well, you don't really need this. I said, yeah, but there's this guy. Okay. Yeah. I need to really nuke him for more. But now they had a seven by seven. What was that? Was that like 200 bucks a month? Was that too much? No, I'm using it for episode 700. Obviously, seven by seven. I see. Let me tell you something. All right. Kidding aside.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Brandon. Ooh, can I do this one? This is like my favorite. Yeah. So it's called a zero to no or low to zero interest rate drunk fed money. And if you read, I think it was Y Combinator put it out to their founders, their letter warning about the future. What happened is a lot of capital just went to, they basically had to find yield, right?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
So they went to things like VC funds and all kinds of more speculative crap. Well, now the interest rates are going up. Those VCs are going to find it harder and harder to raise rounds, which means by extension, startups will find it harder, right? It's going to become more expensive to borrow all kinds of money.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
But in tech specifically, you are going to see, and I'll stand by this one, a bloodbath of startups collapsing and laying folks off.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I just backed out of an office space deal myself for that reason. I don't want the liability on the books because landlords are very prone to sue.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
No, we're talking about like the app to put a mustache on your snake. Yes, that's a Silicon Valley reference.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Yeah, but what that does is it makes you and me and Chris and everybody else listening de facto poorer because even though we might still make – I don't know what you make, whatever you make. Let's call it $70,000. Your $70,000 doesn't go as far as it used to because things went up 10%, 15%.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
So I get off the phone call. Do you know which percentage of the time on the telephone was spent me buying the actual service that I want? Oh, I bet 10% or something like that. Okay. Okay. Sweet lady. Nice lady. I'm not bashing her. What was she trying to do on the rest of the call? Just get your information. What? Nope. Sell me f***ing Norton antivirus. What year is it? No. Yes.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I think it would be remiss if we don't mention that there is one giant, literally donkey, who might try to encourage the Fed not to do what you described. Because historically, when the Fed does this, the party in power, this is all Americans, sorry, European folks, gets eviscerated at the polls. And we do have an election coming up.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
And if the Fed does what Chris describes, which they probably have to, all these social issues that everybody's fighting about aren't going to matter. The Democrats are going to get eviscerated. Wow.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
And maybe, you know, the election happened, right? Yeah. Yeah. The election happened.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Got whacked. What did people vote on? Not on, you know, whatever social issues or identity stuff they voted on. Hey, food is kind of expensive. And that's bad.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Why are we not getting 5% at least? Just a hedge fund to see. Come on.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I guess we're doing a Stargate theme. It's like one of those Stargates where the gate messes up and you go back in time instead of space. I was like, Norton. I said, I'm on an Apple. Oh, and apparently Norton has Apple products too now.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I have so many questions. So, one, who are these users that you've sampled? Not you, personally.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I kind of think it's mostly bull. I don't know. No? All right. So, like, I just upgraded my iPhone. Oh, you got the 16? Yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
uh no i have yeah because i destroyed my other one uh just in time for the warranty have you tried any of the apple intelligence stuff i sure have okay uh i love so i made the mistake of putting my personal cell phone number on my company's website which i think is still there because nobody listens to me that's what i tell them to do uh it better be down but i'm gonna check right after the show uh and what uh has been happening is apparently there's a bunch of uh
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I mean, there's no nice way to say this. Just really sleazy salespeople that just farm phone numbers. So I've had to put my phone on do not disturb basically all day long and then call people back.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
apple intelligence has a mode where it kind of like it figures out like i've got a client you know named mike i've got another one named dan and it figures out if it's them let it through right because i always respond i always text back or i call or whatever um if it's dave i always you know it always lets it through because i did it figure this out on its own yeah just by my usage patterns
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
That's just a standard machine learning, though, really, isn't it? Well, that is not my most loved feature. The summarizing messages has been amazing.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I love it. Because sometimes you get a text message... Now, I haven't... We don't have that many outages, but if... whatever, like an Alice instance goes out or something, I want to know that immediately, right? So I want to get it back up. But if it's just like, hey, give me a call when you get a chance, well, I'll call you when I can. So, yeah, I'm loving it. I don't know.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I hate the writing tools. See, this is my thing. The writing tools... These are like the most HR-driven fake emails or fake text messages back you could ever get. I would be embarrassed to send somebody something like that because it doesn't seem like it's from a person. Well, because it's not, right?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
What if you're writing to Rust developers and you make this 100 times meaner?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
What I thought was – Throw in some of your mama jokes while you're at it.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Okay. But the fact that you keep adding me into photos where I assassinate Kennedy from the grassy knoll. Has been awesome. Problematic for me. Okay.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Yeah. Why is the crooked media team camping out in my front lawn right now being like truth for JFK?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
All right, you know what? I'm not throwing shade at RFK Jr. I listened to eight hours of RFK Jr. about Red 40 and Yellow No. 5, and I'm throwing a bunch of shit at that.

Although, I'll give this lady credit. She said, oh, well, 5x5. She's like, yeah, we have the service. She said, so, are you running Apache systems? You know what? Just for knowing the name Apache. Was she port scanning you?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Then how do people know that we're really us and not AI replicants?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Well, I definitely wouldn't put that we went to System76 and Carl Rachel murdered us personally. Accusing him of murder right now. and used our blood to cool his new Thaleo Astra. This is not an ad. I just, you know, I do weep for our former carbon-based brothers. This is Mike AI, and that's Chris AI. And again, Carl Richel murdered us for his wonderful ARM64-powered Astra Thaleo desktop.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
That little slip in my speech was because he's trying to hack me right now. It could be worth it. It could be worth it. It's a pretty fast machine, just saying. Again, Carl, if you want to pay us for ads, you know, stop killing us.

Yes. You think I was going to let you get away with episode 600 and not mention robes?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
You knew I was going to do it. You should have just... Fair enough. I got to tell you something. I still have my OG, the first run Coder Radio robe, and that is so comfortable. We need more robes. Yeah. Boost in if you want more robes and to help me harass Chris. Also, the Coder Radio tumbler, it doesn't matter how much Hendrix you have in it.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
You knock that over on your MacBook Pro, you don't destroy the computer. Yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
No, they were. She's like, so, actually, it's so funny you say that. She said, I see the account paying for your account is in the corporation's name. I'm like, yep. Okay. Okay.

Tim Cook called me. He's like, I sent you a case of gin and three new MacBooks. You got to test them out for durability. I'm like, I got my Coder Radio Tumblr. They're not going to get a drop.

Yeah, but I'm usually playing Civ 6 with Henry Kissinger and Dick Cheney.
Coder Radio

Yeah, I got to tell you, it's going to be tough four years for Sammy boy there, I think. Yeah, he did just kick in a million bucks to Trump's inauguration fund. Whoa, whoa, hang on. Of course. Listen, the Big Macs and chicken nuggets on Trump's plane are frankly the best. Well, and they don't come free. Somebody's got to pay for it. Even RFK Jr. is eating them now.

600: Mikestrodamus
hmm yeah so i ended up with five static ips too oh oh man dang you could set up a little data center who says i'm not there you go it's all gonna serve jar jar binks memes sure yeah nobody else will so somebody's got to do it yeah see yeah i don't know why you're like that but chris 600 episodes oh man congratulations dude that's pretty awesome congratulations to you of fully bad advice
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
It doesn't seem to work. Well, do I have a solution for you? Go ahead and write sales at themadbotter.com or, you know, just go to alice.dev. Also, Chris suppressed. He censored you. You sent in two notes. Oh, I did? Oh, you're right. Oh, God. Oh, I missed that.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
You're supposed to. Go ahead. Go on, let's go. Suck on some Jar Jar Sats. Notice which one he misses. I did.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Today's Coder Radio is brought to you by the little bulls**t. All right, I sucked on those sats.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Real-world question, Chris, on the boosts. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do they have to use Fountain to set the profile? If they're using Fountain to boost. Okay, but what if, can they do it on the web and have a profile name instead of like user three, seven, whatever?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I think you should change your username, though, to TheCoderProf. That would be good. Or, ready? GunganProf. CodeProf? Something Jar Jar related. GunganCodeProf? That's very long, though.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
See, me and Wes had a long Pydantic, not a joke, it's a real Python library, conversation last night. We should monetize that. We should, like, print T-shirts of me and Wes going back and forth on Python libraries. Yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
It was me, you jackass. I don't remember. Oh, yeah. Chris is like, I've been using this forever. I love it. I love it. You see, the boss takes over. See what happens? Yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
The real power of this, although he's right that there is a website you could just do that with...
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
is it's just a pip package right or poetry if you prefer yes yeah yeah you can run this locally so if you don't want to share your documents with some weird third party or cloud vendor or hell microsoft themselves you run this baby on your local computer your own server your hell i i shouldn't say this i'm running on a bunch of raspberry pis
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I will dunk on it a little. So the OCR on images is pretty... Not so good? Yeah. It's not great. I think we have a lot of dark matter devs, right? A lot of things end up as Excel files. Yeah. It's just... God damn it.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
You know what, Chris? You know what? They expect the Jar Jar, but you know what they're getting?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Well, Markdown's smaller, and it's – so this library doesn't do it, and I might be giving away a little bit of secret sauce I'm doing for somebody. But Markdown is effectively a universal data format. So you can go back from Markdown to, let's say, Excel or let's say a structured database or, you know, if you really want to get fancy presentation, write a PowerPoint presentation.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Well, it's an open. I mean, kidding aside, it's an open data format that anybody can use and there's no licensing encumbrance. So.

And Scott Guthrie is ready to help you. I don't even know if Scott Guthrie actually does the stuff at Microsoft right now.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
You could go to alice.dev or, because it's the holidays, why don't you enjoy some Babylon 5? Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Well, I mean, obviously, you got to go with the one with Mr. Freeze. I think it's season two, episode three, if I'm not mistaken. It's called the Shadow War. Mr. Freeze, who is a, what do they call them? Oh my God, Shadow Mage, something like that, explains to the humans that like, yeah, we're all going to die soon. Because aliens. Yeah. Also, never trust a Centauri.

I mean, I'm pretty sure Captain Picard doesn't feel it was a great holiday experience. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.

600: Mikestrodamus
So a quarter radio bet here. Yeah. We're going to take one week off. Something major is going to happen.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I think Sam Altman, and this is my bet, Sam Altman and Elon go into the octagon to settle the differences.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Chevron 600 is a lock, baby. Stargate all the way. Although, as is performed, we did not check if the dial home device was operable on the other side. So everybody dies at the end.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I mean, you and I, Chris, I hope you're not offended. You and I are kind of more portly fellows. We're bigger dudes. Yeah, yeah. So I think Elon is a brother in this as well. So maybe Elon's dressed like Santa Claus, and Sam Altman, let's be honest, that man is either the Heatmiser or an elf.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Well, elves can be vampires too, right? So he could be a dark elf for all our Baldur's Gate 3 players out there. Yeah. I'm sure I'm wrong on the lore. I think – and somebody please send me D&D. I think there is like vampire elves, right? It's a thing. I'm going to say yes. I mean now how he's going to make up that – what is it now? Like $17 million? Oh, yeah. There's a – oh, yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
And also the other big feature they're pushing in VS 2022, the kind of AI code assistant thing. I don't like GitHub CodePilot. I don't want that built into my editor. I have lots of concerns about potential license violations if they regurgitate GPL code.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
It's just not the kind of thing I would rather just better IntelliSense via, you know, semantic, just like the normal semantic crap that all these code completion things have been using forever. Not AI scanning open GitHub repos. That's my soapbox. I know people are excited about it.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
We haven't talked about that in a while. Well, I think they kind of fixed it, right? Yeah, yeah. And also, I think not using something like CodePilot at this point is actually putting you and, frankly, your clients or customers at a disadvantage. Ooh, I like this hot take. All right, so I wasn't going to do anything new today, but I guess I'll share something new.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
My main use for Copilot and my $200 chat GPT sub is asking it for libraries that are the correct licenses that do things I need to do. Oh, interesting. Yeah. it is far more efficient than I could ever be searching GitHub. Huh. Yeah.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
It's a very boring use, but it actually saves me a ton of time because usually it gives you the library, then it produces like a sample of like, if you want to integrate this with, you know, FastAPI, because I told it I use FastAPI.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Chris, if you and I keep making nice with the natives, our child support bills are going to be astronomical. We've got to stop with the natives. Yeah, especially those intergalactic fees they put on those. Oh, my God. This is why Bitcoin needs to be a thing, just to avoid those transit fees. Right.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Yeah, I thought it was like a dumb toy. We did it. Honestly, it was one of our little, okay, we need content. Let's just throw it in.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I sort of feel like this is either one of those things that I'm just going to completely be wrong about. I don't get it. I get the concept, but everybody that I follow and that follows me or whatever on Twitter is all pissed off about this. I don't understand why. It's a kind of bad idea that isn't working super well. And there may be some licensing issues. I don't know. I'm not an attorney.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I personally don't understand how there could be. But like, oh, it reproduced a stupid bad code. Well, yeah, it's just regurgitating code that's public available on GitHub. What idiot would copy pasta code from GitHub or Stack Overflow? Every developer ever is the right answer to that question. But we all pretend like we don't. So like, I don't know. Is it, I mean, could it be useful? Maybe.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
I don't. Honestly, I did not install it. So this is one of those things like maybe I'm completely missing the boat. I mean, my judgment's been so good with Windows 8 and Metro.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
And I'm flying with my drunken robotic friend. You signed up. You actually signed up. I paid for a year. And this is the dumbest pair programming partner I've ever had.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
My stepdaughter is agency. She's 14. And she introduced me to the phrase YOLO. And you know what? If there's anything that. Our friend Alex, listening to all the Coder Radios, might learn. I seem to, without saying it, be very YOLO. And you know what? I wanted to see how good this Codepilot is. Let me tell you something. It's pretty f***ing bad. Really? Is it pretty? Is it like dumb?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Just like bad code? It's like the drunkest junior developer I've ever met. And let me tell you something. Having been a very drunk junior developer myself in the past, I don't understand what I paid for.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
No, because the only thing I'm using it for is a video game I'm running for my son. Well, I can't say video game. It's a Minecraft mod because my son has very sadly picked up the Pokemon problem, but he wasn't happy with just regular drugs. He had to go to fentanyl. And when I say fentanyl, I mean Minecraft. Yeah, boy, that is. That is the good stuff. And now he wants to code some mods.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
That's bullshit too. But yeah, it's gotten better. You know what the worst part of that clip was for me? What? My son just told me that my Visual Studio code theme sucks because it's been three years, and he's exploring his own for his Python-powered Minecraft mods. You really need your own dedicated environment for that kind of thing. You know what I gave him? Carl will be happy. What's that?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
That's a good kid machine. Sure, absolutely. Good kid machine. 16 gigs of RAM. It's a couple years old, but AMD processor. Makes it nice and easy. Remember, if you only care about Minecraft for some weird... Children, I don't get it. I didn't get it three years ago when that clip was recorded. I still don't get it. It's Legos. But you know what?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
My kid is like... Okay, so... I'm taking a tangent here. We're solidly, right?
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
yeah you know you worry about your son on the internet right he's got a web browser um because i want to torture him i'm making him use firefox sure good good yeah it's also the default on uh oh also side side though uh the poor bastard is not on cosmic because this machine is that old and it's an lts so he's got another year to go
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
Oh, well, I thought we weren't going to talk about that because I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
okay but i do you want to do the upgrades no no no no i look i'm like he's in firefox what's he doing he's on pi pi looking at different minecraft powered python packages that is rad wow My man, like he's going to be nine years old in a few months. I think he sleeps and when he snores, he says PIP3 install.
Coder Radio
600: Mikestrodamus
On episode 600? Well, fine. I'll nuke your feelings. I'll nuke it from orbit. Let's do it.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Also, first of all, I have tremendous faith in our audience's ability to do all kinds of hacking. So I guarantee you, not only could they do it, Chinese government, if you're looking to hire somebody, the Coder Radio audience, you couldn't find better people.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
You know, if you're a troll and you're listening to this next week, you got to go in the jobs chat and have like a panda bear with a red flag being like, hello, Coder Radio people. Yeah, there you go. No, it's, it just, okay, so I can, I briefly did a contract for one of the telcos. It was a stupid thing, but it was a stupid mobile thing for them.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
And the level of we're not changing anything or updating anything unless we're getting paid for it is strong with these guys.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Well, and it's also a cost center for them. Oh, for sure. So their incentive is to be like, oh, we have to comply with the stupid government thing. Let's just like give them an open thing so they can look themselves, which is how it works. Yeah. Right.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
So I'm just, you know, it's really this is one of those cases where whoever decided this was a good idea either didn't understand technology enough to know what would happen, which seems super likely. I'm going to assume incompetence or didn't care.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Well, that's true. 30 years ago, the risk would have been more like physical security. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Like the AT&T guy gets blackmailed and goes in and steals the data. I mean, that would be.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Yeah. Most of that is basically the read any – you're an entrepreneur, but you don't know how to do sales because you're like a – well, a developer, right? This is how you do sales. Of course you want to focus on your enthusiastic early adopters who took a risk on you when nobody else did. Of course focusing on one niche, right? That's basically what he's saying by focusing down.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
It's the only way if you're a small shop because you don't have the resources to go wide and it doesn't make sense to do it anyway. Focusing on a geographical area, I could see how that would make sense because, again, you have limited wood to put behind the arrows. The only one I thought was a little weird is you won't attend a conference that you're not a speaker at.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
That's like, yeah, all right. That's kind of like, do you know who I am? I don't know. I don't think that is necessarily true.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
I mean, I don't know how I feel about that from a practical perspective, because if you want to really manage a properly manage an open source project, that's a lot of work. And you're you're unless it's something like really fundamental, like you're the guy who invented jQuery, your ROI. I just don't think it's going to be there.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
It can be a piece of your product. Or you could be like, you know, insert project here. We'll just use our pals at Docker as an example. Open source your product and have Amazon capture a bunch of the value.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
I can give another example, MongoDB, right? MongoDB will love to sell you Mongo enterprise stuff, right? But how many people just using MongoDB and their node app are actually even like in the ballpark of being Mongo enterprise customers? I would say 0.01% maybe.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
I would argue in many cases there that just won't be a thing.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Yeah, this is a misunderstanding of how open source generally works. One, I mean, if you're able to market your open source product such that it's generating sales for you, I would argue that your energy would have been better spent just marketing your core product because you're really good at marketing and sales.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
They may not know. Yeah. Right. That's that's a great point. The person developing the end application may be pulling some other, I don't know, NPM library that pulls another one that pulls yours and have no idea who the hell you are.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Wes is right. He's in the chat saying this sounds like LinkedIn lunatics more and more. This is the kind of crap you get like somebody's LinkedIn article post.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
You still have to develop the entire open source utility.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
We could do a segment. This is the – you know, I've been getting some real whoppers. I shit you not. So this is – we're doing a double because of Hurricane Milton today. I know I'm breaking the illusion. Someone had the balls to send me an email trying to get me to buy their offshore development services, which is a thing I don't do. What kind of – what's the pitch there? What's the – Oh, no.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Are you ready? Here you go. Dear Mr. Dominic, I want to extend my deepest sympathy. Not sympathy. It's just sympathy. But fine. You know, I'll take it. It's a minor. Uh, to you and your family and the whole firm at Mad Botter. Cool. I want to know that I'm happy to help my firm offers. And it's just the normal list of like, here's our $20 an hour offshore or whatever it is, uh, development rates.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Um, I hit the spam button with a sledgehammer. I couldn't take it. That's some scummy stuff right there. And I am sure that's regular email. So this person took the time to get my email. I guarantee you, and I know they don't listen to the show because they spelled Dominic wrong and they spelled Mad Bonner wrong. But my LinkedIn messages...
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
are going to be – if this is the new tactic, whatever scummy sales tactic is the new thing, I keep getting it. I don't know. I'm just pitching in, Moni, but leveraging a natural disaster that puts people's families in harm's way as – That's a certain kind of cynical.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
You watched Wall Street and were like, Gordon Gekko makes a ton of sense to me. I don't understand what the deal is with this movie. Yeah.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
It's online mostly. I have the generator. We talked about this just two weeks ago when there was another game. I have my Verizon Jump thing. They don't call it Jump anymore. It's like a MiFi, but a hotspot. I know what you mean. The first one I bought was called Isis, hilariously. Yeah, I remember that. They quickly changed that. Yes.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
So I'm kind of like prepared, but I could see like I'm sure I'm not the only one who got this email. Right. I bet there's a couple of people who got it like that want to throttle this guy.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
So this is Mike's scumbag of the week. It should be a new segment.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
You know, but just don't send emails trying to sell things with natural disasters. And then go to alice.dev if you're experiencing a great day where we can help with your ETL and automation needs.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
And usually, and I remember we had to throw one out because the audio was so good. Yeah, it happens. That happens too. That's why we don't do guests. Yeah.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
So, yeah, it's kind of a tough thing, right? I mean, I agree with everything you're saying about backups and historical, you know, keeping the history of these games. I would also add, just as an aside, this problem of keeping the history of these games and like preserving them.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
is there's actually a much worse problem and that's all that all these games are now live service games yeah service is turned off the game your disc or your digital copy or whatever you have is effectively you know broke right your DVD or blu-ray is a is a coaster
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Going to make that hard. Yeah. I can't say that I 100% agree with Nintendo's hyper-aggressive actions and, frankly, you know, Godfather-style tactics here.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
I definitely see it with the switch. And I also like it. It's nice to talk about the historical preservation stuff. I would be willing to bet if somehow you did a real investigation, it's the vast majority of it's just piracy. It's gotta be right. It's gotta be just people who want to not pay for the games.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Oh, for sure. For sure. So, you know, I don't know. It's one of the – if you're doing one of these projects – You know, this isn't like a new development, right? Nintendo has been, I mean, Nintendo didn't want people to post YouTube reviews of their games.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Put a tiny little machine in there. No, because $14.99 a month is more money. And if you want access to those games, you're paying it in perpetuity.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
And also it looks better for the markets because the way they – I mean this is wild, right? This is like inside baseball. But generally the way that revenue is valued for valuations, recurring revenue is better.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
I mean, I can tell you what the other side is going to say. What? I'd love to try to steel man this. I'll steel man it. The next time, first of all, we'll do our normal joke. Think of the children.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Or election interference. Yeah, I think they'll go with the terrorism stuff first, but yeah. We talk about this all the time. Every couple months this comes up, right? If your goal, if your stated aim is to prevent all crime, right, you're going to have this stuff and it's going to cause all kinds of trouble.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Well, police have been policing since Grog, the third caveman, was like, hey, we need one of us to stop the other cavemen from stealing things and attacking the women and children or whatever. Even back then, there were cave paintings that said, think of the children, I bet, right? So it's bull, right?
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Police used to be able to do policing without all this technical wizardry and constant surveillance. And you know what they had to do instead of relying on technology? And same thing for civil cases, like, oh, I have the text messages. You actually have to do some detective work, right?
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
You have to actually gather evidence, interview witnesses, and not just, you know, get a couple of keystrokes and say, well, you put this, especially if you look at places like our good friends in the UK, who were now like, you know, that angry drunk text you sent might now be a felony. It's really, that is a thing that happens in the UK. Yeah. I hate all of this. This was bound to happen.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
The worst part is this was happening apparently for a long time, and you're just hearing about it now.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
If I'm a Chinese spook here... Because none of this is anonymized, right? So you could just go through and find particular people you'd like to put pressure on. Like, hey, Mr. Executive at a company that has valuable IP we'd like to, you know, research we'd like to exploit. So that's a pretty cute college girl you got there that you see every other week. Be a shame if your wife found out. Sure.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
Much like, or hell, you're Nintendo, right? What an interesting GitHub project you were texting about.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
I've gotten to the point where maybe this is just like, you know what? The cops were able to do their job before. The feds were able to do their jobs before. I think everything – they should write a law. There should be a regulation here. The regulation is end-to-end encryption becomes mandatory. Right. And no one can get to it.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
And then there will be risk and there will be cases and you will have, you know, pearls being clutched. But it's better than how many years was this going on? How much data, sensitive data, right? Personal stuff. Maybe you're a military officer and you're secretly gay. How many of these do we even find out about? Right. The case I just made happened.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
The government, Sisyphus, I always say wrong, stopped Grindr from selling itself to foreign investors because they're like, look, man, you could say whatever. This is like 2022. But that is a blackmail vector. So, this is terrible. This is why the backdoors should not only not exist, it should be illegal, everything should be end-to-end encrypted.
Coder Radio
591: FOSS does what Nintendont
And we just, we have to go back to understanding that you can't, it's like if you live in Florida, right? You want to create a hole in your house to get a better breeze. Great, but the snakes and the gators can get in there too.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Well, that's what it felt like, right? It felt like they had to have an AI story. And we talked about this in our DubDub episode, too. And right now, whether this makes a whole lot of sense or not, Wall Street analysts want you to be talking about AI. So this is very, we're, you know, this is very, we're in the beanie babies, right? We're in the fad.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
That's not to say all AI is fake or anything like that, but. It's pretty clear that Apple threw this together pretty recently, right? As we record, this is the day after the event, their stock's down. Right. I don't really have much on this topic. I feel like if you want a phone, get a phone. But there's nothing earth-shattering in these.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I do feel like if you want to fry the bacon, the Cupertino Apple Smoked Bacon... What really, in my opinion, happened here is they had a whole multi-year AR roadmap laid out.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
That's why the cameras and the pros are so balling, right? It was going to be that the iPhone Pro is now your content creation device for the Apple Vision Pro. Yes. And la-di-la-di-la. Well, that fell right on its face. And they had to do a hard pivot for Wall Street. They had to do a hard pivot because Sam Altman came out and, you know, kind of repositioned OpenAI as a...
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Though technically not a commercial company at the moment, it's still owned by the nonprofit. There's lots of whispers that there's going to be some chicanery to change that. And that, you know, like you said, it basically put a bee in Wall Street's bonnet, and they needed a story about AI. So they made this weird partnership with ChatGPT, which is really not a whole lot, right?
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
And they're doing Apple AI, okay. But they're not doing anything. I mean, it's a little weird, too, right? You could think they're the platform vendor, and one of the biggest complaints of iOS power users is how siloed apps are.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
The obvious but perhaps like really technically challenging thing with even their own internal architecture thing for them to do would be to basically make, I think they call it workflows on iOS now. You can like have apps like, you know, basically Unix pipes, right? Pipe data to one each other. Have Siri be able to just do that.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
For instance, I got the Overcast update and for about a week I was very unhappy with it because it kept crashing and I listened to a lot of podcasts.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
It feels like ADA bait, right? That's what that was. The ADA stands for Apple Design Awards for folks who didn't spend a decade doing iOS development. And it would have been very nice to say, hey, Siri, get the data, the OPL file, the OPL file from Overcast and shunt it to like, I don't know, Pocket Cast or something.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Or Fountain, I guess, or whatever. Yeah, there you go. The problem is, one, Overcast took out the ability to export the OPNL file, which I feel like that wasn't a lot of code. And I kind of feel like, hmm, you took this out when you were launching what you probably knew was an unstable update. It's a very Mike Dominic move. I got to give it to you, Marco. That's something I would do. I mean...
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, I mean, this will be in court for 10 years if they actually go for the breakup, right?
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I mean, make you be patient. Because it's obviously fixed now, right? I'm still using it day to day. I'm a premium customer. But the first week, week and a half, two weeks was pretty touching. Yeah. So still a good app. If you are looking for an iOS podcast app and you don't want to do whatever, it's fine.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
it it it would have been great for siri to be able to handle that kind of thing for me what a dream yeah apple just really feels that those walls around each individual app silo have to be manned by snipers and with a gator filled moat straight from tallahassee so i don't i guess we can't have that but yeah i i feel like the it's like it is a big story but it's only big because of how like where's the beef right there's nothing there's no there there this one
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, it's a level of, I think maybe calling it vapor is a little too spicy, but I'll call it vapor.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I mean, you know, all roads lead to what to investor relations here.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
But, Chris, those colors are pretty on the non-Pro version. Yeah. Nice job with the case.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, I mean, I could see me, of all the things they announced, I might pick up, or I think I'm pretty likely to pick up, is I'm running Gen 1 AirPods, and I use them all the time. Yeah, yeah. Again, for my podcasts, such as Linux Unplugged.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I know, but it feels... The only thing that I think is a little unnecessarily Tim Cookie about these AirPods... $50 for noise canceling on the same line? I mean, come on.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I don't know. I just... I wonder if... Like, I also have a pair of the AirPod Max, and I used to use them more... I mean, they're fine, right? I will agree, like, for over-the-head headphones, they're probably the best ones I have. Good for music. Really great. Right. But the reality is, I usually have, like, one AirPod of, like, the, you know, Gen 1 in because I'm...
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I see. Well, my stepdaughter went through a gossip girl phase, so then you put both AirPods. Maybe I will get the active noise canceling.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I'll have to see one of these in person because, again, I have the 14 Pro Max, whatever it's called. And at least in the demo, which you would think the demo would be the cat's pajamas, right? I didn't feel like I got to go get this.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Now, maybe I could be compelled because I have Verizon and sometimes they're like, hey, it's been two years. Then, yeah, I will get it.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
See, I guess maybe it's where I am. I just don't have the call problems.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, that is pretty sweet. All right, so what if you're not loyal to the Apple ecosystem? What if you're surfing the WSL wave, Mike? Yeah, so to celebrate the end of summer and to, frankly, make better use of this ridiculously over-spec Dell I have here, I decided to give WSL a shot again.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I did. Oh, wow. So the image is of Tux surfing on top of something with like a vaguely Microsoft Windows-esque logo on it. Yes. Yeah.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
You know, we've talked about it before. I think it might be a year ago. And it's certainly come a long way to the point where so far, about a weekend, it is 100% usable. The biggest hiccup I hit was actually trying to, and this isn't WSL, this is just Windows.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
When I was trying to get on the air, I was trying to get on the air on the Dell, and Chrome kept saying, your Windows is blocking the microphone. So I went to do what Chrome said, and it didn't help. So that's probably – Rough edges for those kinds of things.

Well, and I have a suspicion that it's the way, because I plugged in the Zoom 22 into the front of the Dell via USB-C that I use for the Mac. I bet had I ran it behind the desk into like a regular USB-A port, I just have this feeling it would have not been done. But we're talking about WSL, not Windows in general. We should just take a quick detour, right? So Windows is fine, right?
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
PowerShell is, I would say... Pretty good now, even though I don't use it much at all. They have fixed, and you can read DHS's post about this too, text rendering is no longer terrible on Windows until you get into some of those older applications that look like a dead turkey. And WSL, so there's still two modes. There's WSL 1, which is like the translation layer.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Think of it like wine, but Windows to Linux almost. Kind of slow. The only real big advantage is that working with the Windows file system is faster. What you really want, and what most people are talking about when they talk about WSL today, is WSL 2, which is running a full big daddy tux Linux kernel inside of Windows.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
It does more stuff. And a lot of, I'm jumping ahead a little bit here, but a lot of the IDE vendors, such as, you know, I love my JetBrains tools, right, have strong WSL support now.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Where it's like two-click setup for, I'm using PyCharm and RubyMine, of course. Really easy setup. CLion has good integrations.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, VS Code does some weird stuff. It automatically configures itself if you install their plugin, and it will sometimes launch a Linux version of VS Code or VS Code in a Linux email for you if you type code into WSL.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, so if you want the I-want-to-do-no configuration of an IDE whatsoever, Visual Studio Code is your buddy. It's there for you.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, well, I kind of think it might be why VS Code exists, to be honest with you. It's really... You know, I did take a quick walk on the VS Code site again, and they are... they really want to make it easy for you to go from like VS code to get hub to deployed.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
And there's all kinds of little Microsoft published helpers for that. So take that for what it's worth, right? You know, you just, how tightly you want to be in that ecosystem.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I know you're a Penguin guy. So I did two. I did Penguin, but I ended up writing the post. I'm going to do a more in-depth one later with Ubuntu for the simple fact that Ubuntu is free.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
And most of the tutorials that I think beginners will find are going to be for Ubuntu. Okay.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
So you don't have to run it at startup either. Right, okay, right. I mean, I don't notice it. I also have 128 gigs of RAM on my machine. By default, it only allows it to take up to 50% of the RAM on your system.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
That's all. In your system, that's still a ridiculous amount of RAM. Well, right. There's a config file where you can override that if you're insane. But I have noticed no performance lag. Again, 128 gigs of RAM. Yeah, yeah.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
So I haven't done, I don't do my dev environments in Docker. I deploy to Docker for staging and production. So I have not, but that is definitely something I should look into.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
So there's two things. Let me just jump to the Docker thing real quick too. Yeah, so there's other ways to use Docker, right? You could do like Doku or Docker Compose where like Voltron's up the Docker container on the server, which is basically what I do. Okay. So the advantage is, well, you know, that $1,500 Mac Studio display I bought? About two years ago? Yeah. Hmm. decided to die.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Oh, so this is more of a rage trial. I see. I see. Um, no, but there are, there are legitimate advantages, right? Like, so I do have, um, windows applications that I still support. I have, uh, you know, some game stuff that I'm doing gaming and game dev stuff that is just easier on windows right now. And I gotta be honest with you. Like I'm going to be redoing my little home office.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Cause I just, I grabbed a monitor I had in the garage and, The prices on non-Apple stuff, I know this is going to come as I told you so from a lot of our commenters. There's just a whole world of affordable things out there in every shape and size.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I can also upgrade this Dell thing. I think it can go up to 256 gigs, which is ridiculous.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, so, I mean, a couple, you know, I do like the PC game. Proton has come a long way. Lutris is great. We've talked about them both in the show. It still is a lot easier just to, like, you know, have it native on Windows, especially if you play, like, online RTSs, which I do quite a bit recently. Those stupid, what do they call them? Not DRM. Anti-cheats. Oh, God. Anti-cheats.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
For some reason, they must be something I'm doing. They just hate Lutris.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah. I mean, I will say, I mean, this isn't the Windows Action Show. Windows 11 isn't that. It just isn't. And it sounds like the dev story you think is pretty solid. The dev story is solid. Now, maybe, like, so far I haven't hit anything. Maybe I will hit some crazy situation. My one big hurdle, but this was user error,
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
was you really, if you're going to be working your dev environment in WSL, just keep your code in the Linux file system. Don't try to cross the streams. Performance sucks crossing the streams. There's weird pathing issues as it tries to convert Windows paths to Linux paths or Unix paths, rather. Yeah, that's just not good. I kind of don't care for the GUI features.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Like, this is Penguin super big into this. And I know most of the mainstream distros have added this, too, where you could just launch GUI apps from WSL Linux versions like full X11 server. I guess that's cool if you need one of them. I'm mostly using it basically as the Unix. Right. You know, the POSIX stuff, the Linux command line. Right. With Windows native Linux.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Jetbrain IDEs because that's what I've used for work using the WSL SDKs as the remote interpreters remote in quotes because it's you know not in fact remote right it's a couple file system jumps away yeah and the idea sort of slash hope there is kind of like best of both worlds I suppose Yeah, the only other hiccup I've had is RuboCop, which is, I'm trying to think what, like a flake?
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
It's a linter. It's even slower in WSL. Oh, sure, yeah. I bet some things would be, wouldn't they? I figured it out, and I actually ended up asking JetBrains about it. It is not RuboCop. It is the round trip it has to take for the way they have, at most IDs, integrated into the editor. And they were able to show me you can prove it if you just go into Terminal on WSL.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
and run the command manually that it's running, it's just as fast as you'd expect. That feels like a tooling thing where I would not be shocked if RubyMine couldn't fix that. I did spin up a VS Code instance in Windows that had Ruby support. But targeting WSL again, right? It did not have this performance issue for RuboCop.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
But it notably doesn't have the automatic, like you could just click and be like, accept this recommendation. So I think there's something about the way they've implemented that that causes an issue. But that is a tiny, tiny gripe. And also sometimes RubyCop suggests crazy crap.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Or things that are technically, quote, the Ruby way, but make your code indecipherable to anyone who hasn't been learning under Mr. Kane for a while. Is it Dr. Kane? Father Kane? He's just an old dude, right? I don't know.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I feel like I should know that. I bet he's like a monk or something, yeah.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Mandatory WSL. Yeah. I believe Arch Linux is available, too, so you could really. There you go. There you go. I like the way you're thinking.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I may be wrong. Yeah, we'll see what happens. I mean, you know, it's interesting the businesses they're talking about splitting out. When, if I think of, you know, self-sustaining businesses at Google, I would think of YouTube, obviously. And then actually maybe the not, I think, discussed enough Google App Engine, which is like their AWS or Azure.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
That's actually a great point, right? They used to literally make videos coming out and saying, you know, this is just like your Apache web server, man. Come on. Hey, here's XServe. You can run Apache. So when you're doing your Java – remember Java was the hotness, your Java development. It's just like the – it's the same environment that you're going to be running in production. So – and –
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, they even tried to supplant my beloved Objective-C with Joth at one point, but we smoked Duke down.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
But Chrome, I don't know how Chrome could possibly live on its own.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Well, also it's the salience of the false positive. You probably see more ads in a day than you think and you just remember or take note of the ones that seem eerie to you.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Also, your browser agent also gives you away. If you are, I don't know, a Mac user using Safari on a pretty nice machine, they have a profile of guys who are within a certain age group, a certain demographic, who are Apple users, right? Yeah. Honestly, that's how podcasting ads work, too. You figure out who your audience is. I mean, Chris, tell me if I'm way off base. You're right.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
And you sell them things that stereotypically they would probably buy.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Right. It's a lead generation tactic. I mean, you know, definitely be concerned about how much you're tracked. But just like take a minute and read an article about lithium-ion batteries. Hell, read the Wikipedia. Yeah. then you will understand why this is not happening anytime soon.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
I mean, we should go, but the real bacon one I'll just let folks hear about. Your credit card company, depending on who it is, many of them are doing this now, are actually tracking your transactions and selling data to advertisers.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
So that means you don't have to even be online. You could simply go to Publix or, I don't know, Kroger's, I don't know where you are. And they'll be like, huh, this person seems to be trying out vegetarianism this month. Right.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
No, they admitted it. Yeah. I have a cap one card and they're like, hey, we're going to be selling all your. Mm hmm. Yeah. So it's. Yeah.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Right. If you are like a Moldavian scientist who solved the cold fusion, great. You've done it. Yeah, you could probably pull this off.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
We'll figure it out. I got like one last hurrah. Oh, we would be remiss if we didn't say rest in peace to Lord Vader. Oh, right.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, it would be interesting, right? Because then it would also compete with Google search and other people have discussed this possibility. But like I said, if there is anything like that suggested, it will be Oracle versus Google level appeals.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Well, I would say that there are Buddhist monks of the audience, right?
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
Yeah, I mean, you know, I'll just give my general impressions, right? All these iPhones are basically performance bumps from the 15. I'm on a 14 Pro Max, whatever. I am still, you know, I'm toying with it. I'm not sure I'm going to upgrade.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
No, I don't see that drawing me to upgrading. I think about what I do on my phone. I use it as a phone. Shocker right now. I listen to podcasts and audiobooks and check my email. Oh, and I take pictures of my kid. Now, honestly, the most compelling thing is the camera stuff on the new Pros. Yeah, cameras are better for sure.
Coder Radio
587: Surfing the WSL Wave
But is that worth me, you know, having a phone payment or dropping whatever it's going to cost?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
All right, I got one that's pretty bad. It's been bad on multiple levels. All right. My just general hatred of Swift when it came out.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
One, irrational. Two, it actually didn't matter in a lot of ways, right?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
calm and let's just say uh i don't know how you say thoughtful person would have been well it doesn't matter because the trend is is and was always going to be a lot of the enterprise type development i do was going to end up you know relying on web standards rather than uh native development or any of the shims like xamarin okay that's i guess that's not like a cringe take it's just wrong right
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
You know, is it a rug pull? I don't know. I mean, they weren't official, right? They were kind of just there. I don't think, at least I couldn't find anything where Tesla came out and said that they were going to support these APIs. Yeah. For third-party use.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Yeah, isn't that always the case? Especially starting out a project like this, maybe it's your first of your own, I don't know. You're more likely to languish in obscurity than to get Sherlocked. Yeah. I mean, I still lean towards permissive licenses. I've heard some good arguments and I've seen some successful projects.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Now this is, I might be messed up here, but the LGPL4 has like a, it could be the LGPL4 or the LGPL3. I always screw them up. But has a way where you could make it like kind of copy left so that you can't just get Sherlocked. Again, I think that's not a huge risk in most cases. but it gives you the ability to do proprietary-ish things, which you might want to do.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
I tend to still, I know this is lame, I still tend to use, I think the last thing I did was like Apache license.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
It has the Google problem, right? How many pages do you have to go before you see a non-Google property on most searches now?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Thank you for the boost. Was it because he was just like being slightly disruptive?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Now it doesn't come up anymore. He's a kid. I don't know. Yeah, I mean, I have no direct experience with this with my child, but I know one of his pals is on it now, and the poor kid's a zombie.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Yeah, that's tough. It's a shitty situation all around. This is the risk you always run when you're building on top of somebody else's API.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Um... I think we're going to get more practical applications for it, which might be less sexy for the non-techie media.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
So, I'm trying to think of how to put this correctly. It's going to be actually more useful, but maybe less, you know, Jim Cramer's, well, Jim Cramer will yell about anything, but, you know, CNBC is not going to be freaking out about it as much. I do worry a little that the massive expenditures that particularly OpenAI is taking, I mean, that's a big old nut to crack.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
So, I mean, I guess they're going to get there 200 at a time, right? I don't know.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
It just seems like a strange... I mean, are they implying that because they want to meet people, potential dating, I guess?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
I don't know. I don't know. I can't see a case where I want to go back to the office.

Go check out alice.dev, and you can find me at Dumanuku on all the socials. I have not been posting much, so it's been great.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Yeah, it's interesting because – One, it's going to be imperfect no matter what, but it would be interesting to see someone in a position of power. If we're going to have some kind of regulation, be an advocate for the open source models rather than, you know, not. Now, you know, when the rubber meets the road, where does he really land, right? Who knows, right? This is all new.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
This is all, it's kind of exciting. It's a lot of it's to be determined. It's also the federal government.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Right, how much can they actually do, right? I mean, open AI doesn't seem to be slowing down. They just got my $200.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Well, in a lot of ways, Elon ended up doing a better version of what Sam was trying to do, right? He got cozied up to the folks in power by taking what some might have called a long shot on Trump. It's going to make life hard for Altman, right?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
It will be interesting to see if OpenAI starts to signal some more friendliness to the incoming administration. I think one easy way to do that that's not that impactful, but is more of a signaling move, would be to loosen ChatGPT's... Let's try to say this in a non-controversial way, but some of it's more pearl clutching norms. Sensitivity.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Yeah, I mean, I would strongly consider flipping that switch to be a little more free-for-all and then making a big splash, a PR splash. You're going to get pilloried by your California friends. But yeah, I would certainly be scared if Elon Musk is Grima Wormtongue into Trump's ear and I'm open AI, considering the just massive amounts of money they're burning.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
So, I mean, it takes longer to respond to me, which I guess is their way of showing surfacing the additional processing. Yeah. But the answers are roughly the same and it still has what I would consider the same gaps that the pro version has.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
I mean, I am going to stick with it for a month and see where I land. But I, you know, because like I have it doing a lot of like the marketing stuff, right? Just like, you know, here's an ad I want to do for Alice and I just make me like five variants and I manually check them and tweak them. But there you go. Huh, okay. I do ask it coding questions.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
It still has this weird black hole with Doku and some Rails stuff that I don't understand where I guess it's just a bias of the information that it has is so heavily skewed towards other solutions.
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
Yeah, I think it's better. So I found ChatGPT to always be much better at Python than Ruby. But I think they made an effort to make it good at Python, right?
Coder Radio
599: GPU Game Theory
I'm doing more complicated things with it. I'm definitely leaning pretty heavy on the business side because it's the kind of work that's expensive for me to outsource or to hire in for. You know how it is, man, right? You run a campaign, and if the campaign fails... It's nice to not have paid some consultant five grand to set that up, right?
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
But if you are someone trying to build some sort of boutique AI thing for a specific customer base, your startup, whatever, three grand is not... It's actually pretty reasonable to get in. So I think that I could understand how that's something the Wall Street crowd would totally overlook, but I could see them moving quite a lot of those. I don't know.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I thought that was a pretty impressive announcement. Now, I always take NVIDIA with a little bit of salt.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I mean, on the bright side. New GPUs means older GPUs should be cheaper.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I mean, yeah, they're spending so much money, right? This has been my hobby horse every time we talk about this, is, okay, are we just going to... I mean, not that people don't IPO without being profitable, and not that that's not the norm these days, but it sure feels like... These numbers, you know, sometimes the math isn't mathing.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
No, I mean, this is a product that has a specific customer that is, if you believe any of the big tech sites, is the growth market right now. And surely, I still think there will be a few startups that do a niche AI product.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
And I can't think of a better way to just have an out-of-the-box, bam, I'm up and running, ready to rock on the important part of being a business, which is your own stuff, right? Getting your product ready, not tinkering with... It's setting up your workstation or, God forbid, having to pay AWS for a bunch of GPUs or whatever the hell.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Oh, yeah. If you're doing AI, you're going to go CUDA, I think.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Well, right. Google, I believe, is still out there trying to make their own AI chips, right? It's still a thing. I know they're not talking about it much. I think Microsoft was too. Did they give up on that?
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Translation, we're going to get out of this Microsoft deal within Trump's term.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yes. As long as I'm back from New York, I will do that.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Well, we had the story a couple, I think, right before the holidays, right, where there's a little bit of friction between Redmond and wherever the hell OpenAI actually is.

MacGyver's great. You know what? I like every time they reference that Dean Anderson was, in fact, MacGyver.

602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I don't know how to feel about this one there, Magnolia.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
That is a really bad game, though. I actually had that game.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I mean, I... I kind of got to say no notes on this one because that has been my experience for like a decade now. Every time I hire junior people, and some of them I'm still friendly with after they left, but it always ends up being, Yeah, they're not making what a more experienced person would make, but by the time they're really productive, they're gone.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
When I say really productive, I mean not blowing shit up. I used to have better luck before work from home and remote work. When I used to tell people, oh, we're semi-remote back when we were in Jersey. Well, I used to have to defend that.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yeah. Well, I used to have clients like, well, what about my data? Now they're like, okay, whatever. Right. So that used to be a way to retain people be like, yeah, but do you really want to like drive to New York or take the train for, you know, when you could just work from home three days a week or two days a week or whatever it was. Um, and in some cases they were always remote, um,
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yeah, I think as an industry, we have not figured out how to deal with junior developers in a way that's both good for the employer and fair to them. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I don't know what to say. Customers are wanting more and more for less, and that makes any error or anything like that that a junior is super likely to cause that much more expensive and risky to client relationships.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
So I currently don't have any junior developers, and I was able to cut and keep revenue the same.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
The biggest jackass in the company is me now, right? So it's like, the risk is like me getting mad that somebody didn't pay an invoice or something, right? Chris knows how I get. But... I can't tell you how many times I've had a junior inadvertently merge into the branch that GitHub kicks off a deployment to and I have to scramble. It's just bad.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Or they quit in the middle of a project because it turns out they took the job because they needed a stopgap that in three months got a better job or the job they really wanted. I had one guy who didn't know how to reverse a string. but was able to... Oh, this is the other thing. It has become a lot easier. I used to do coding tests for junior developers.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
We talked a lot years ago about how many people failed FizzBuzz. Those are worthless now because a test for a junior has to be relatively easy, but ChatGPT can absolutely do that. Right? Go right now. Ask even the free version of ChatGPT to do FizzBuzz. It'll do it. I used to have this Pokédex challenge, which used the Pokémon... the Pokemon API, which is really cool that they put up.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
And I used to be like, you know what, make me like a simple like Rails webpage that is like a basic Pokedex page, like a list of the original 150 whatever Pokemon. You click it and you go to like a detail screen with the image and the stats. And if you've played Pokemon, you know exactly what I'm talking about. And I'm sure almost everybody listening to this has.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
really any pokemon game again i'm relatively sure chat gpt could get you like 80 of the way there now so and god knows what claude could do right so i don't i don't know how i would uh to dg's point i don't know how how i would make that make sense unless we're talking about You know, I should clarify here, the junior developers I think we're talking about are like your average developer.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
We're not talking about, you know, Rain Man from MIT who has never lost a game of Magic the Gathering in his life and is like writing an algorithm for parsing different license plates with, you know, half the plate or something crazy like that.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yeah. I don't know why I went with that example.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
But like those guys are just going to Google anyway. Right. So, so I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about, you know, they, they went to college or they went to, you know, technical school. They're okay. You know, they're, they're junior, they're a developer. They're going to be probably a dark matter developer working at startups for, for a good portion of their life.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!

Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
In fact, ChatGPT, the way to destroy the podcast... is to, on an infinite loop with Sam Altman's bank account, keep boosting, maybe like a million sats at a time. Yeah, that would wreck us. You know, I tell you what, if you can get us up to $3 million, you'll never hear from us again.

I will personally crash the service and delete the whole feed.

602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yes, with a quick control C and a control V, borrowing heavily.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Also, Microsoft has kind of paved the way for you here with the whole AI PC thing. Couldn't you do a riff on that? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, why? You know, it's so weird. They all have such Apple envy. And I kind of thought it was going to go away this year. But I guess it's just the chip on the shoulders too heavy.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
This guy is in the lounge room of the Enterprise-D playing multi-level chess. He's like, one, I'm going to do all these things at the same time in one move. Get out of the Microsoft deal. I'm going to get a bunch of government contracts. That's my bacon, by the way. He's going for DoD contracts. And I'm going to fix my revenue problem because there's so much fat once you get in. Right.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
That's what they've got. This is how you know they've become way too corporate. Yeah.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I feel like that's kind of an oxymoron because you're a max, but you're also micro.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
It sounds like something out of The Onion.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Well, obviously, it's going to be the Pro Max Mini.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
You can find me on WeaponX at Dumanuko, or you can go to alice.dev if you need some data processed and automated.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Look at just how terrible the big – particularly the aerospace contractors have been doing, how much SpaceX has been able to embarrass them, and yet how fat their margins are and how little accountability there ever is.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I mean, I definitely believe him when he says he pulled the number out of his butt. I believe that.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Well, I think they do, right? I mean, and it makes sense, right? Because I feel like the thinking, based on their behavior and various things that have leaked or have been involved in court cases or whatever, is that their big fear is that basically Google is going to overtake them. So they're constantly, like you said, skating ahead of the puck, right?
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
You ready to kick off the new year? I'm, you know, I'm trying to raise as much money as possible for my AI venture called... GiveMeMoney.ai?
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
They're pre-selling. They're making investments they probably wouldn't make. if they didn't have that competitive pressure. And frankly, Google is a pretty scary adversary. Right now, Gemini is, I would say, fathoms beneath OpenAI. But Google has unlimited money. Google owns advertising online.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
So Google can just start throwing drunk money at this, which I think they are. And they will eventually catch up, especially if OpenAI is starting to feel financial pressure. And the Microsoft deal, I think, is going to be one of the great 15 years when the books about OpenAI are the good ones, not like the, I was there and Sam yelled at me, like the real ones.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Remember when tech reporters used to actually report on the tech? It was so good. Those books. Yeah. I bet there's a lot of stuff in that Microsoft deal that is hamstringing them. But they just needed that office money. I mean, there's no way around that.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I mean, Sam had to donate the money, right? Because Elon, as you said, has the presidency here. And Elon, it's pretty clear that Elon hates him. Like, seems like it got very personal at some point. You know, but if you think back to the tech hearings in like 20... What was that, like 22? When they all got hauled before Congress for the first time? Yeah.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
And like, I forgot the name of the congressman, but there was some... I think it was actually – yeah, it was a senator who was just like, why are my campaign emails going to spam? Yes, there's a lot of that.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
They have a hate on – it was embarrassing.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
But the truth is I feel like there's not going to be a breakup of anybody. Yeah. I know we have this in the doc, but net neutrality just got shot in the back of the head like Old Yeller because everybody acts like Trump is such a special orange unicorn. The reality of the situation is it's going to be a Republican government that is pro-big business. There's going to be no breakups.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Acquisitions are back. Yep, yep. Acquiring your nascent competitor in the cradle just to kill them is going to be a thing again.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Because of Lena Kahn. She kept challenging them. Yeah, I mean I wouldn't be surprised. We were talking about the Microsoft deal. I would not be surprised if Microsoft starts diversifying by buying up some nascent AI companies.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yeah, Perplexity is good. I think Perplexity actually has to get acquired. I just don't know how they could go up against OpenAI.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
I don't think Apple wants an AI reputation.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
It's such a nest of vipers, right? Because then you immediately get into the moderation stuff.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Oh, especially because the entertainment industry, you know, last time they did business with Apple, it didn't necessarily go their way.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Robots! Robots. I think it's an interesting idea. I could definitely see, especially if you're doing a multiplayer game and struggling to get good network effects, why that might make sense. Again, it is another AI promise.
Coder Radio
602: Dude, You're Getting a Dell Pro Max Micro Plus!
Yeah, I feel like there's a lot. I'm particularly excited about what effectively is a dev kit. Project Digits. Project Digits, right? Which is real quick since I jumped ahead. It's a $3,000 effectively mini desktop for developers and AI researchers. Now, $3,000 is a bit of money, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Glory of Docker, you can run multiple applications on one box in different containers. Again, Docker, we knew them when, when they were just we lads. But it's a huge pain in the ass to sync the data, right? This Postgres database, this kind of thing that I hate doing because it's error prone.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
This is a hickory maple dry rub. Oh, okay. You got me. That I had put on the ribs hours before cooking them and kind of let seep in. Yeah. So that's the dry rub rack. The other one is just sweet baby raised barbecue sauce. Great barbecue sauce, but it's just barbecue sauce, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And, you know, everybody says they don't care about the second instance, the staging instance, but they definitely care, right? You're going to get the calls that it's down or whatever, something crazy happened. Yeah. So I was looking for a way to make this less of a support burden.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And little did I know about this app's clone functionality in Doku, which I use every single day and have been for years. See what happens when you don't read the damn manual? What it does is it takes the existing instance, copies the application, the environment variables to a point. You can change them later. And most importantly, any attached databases.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
So Doku obviously has the Doku Postgres plugin. And like Doku Storage, any of those configurations you're using for... Doku has a robust plugin system. And creates a new instance. Things it doesn't do for you. SSL. Big pain in the butt. Okay. Change environment variables, also pain in the butt.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
For instance, you probably don't want to be sending emails or push notifications or anything like that from your staging instance, right? Now, my case was a Rails case, but this would work for, you know, FastAPI or, you know, Spring, really anything, right? Java Spring, whatever, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I wrote a very simple bash script and using good old cron because we're on Linux and we have things like this that make this easy. Ran this command, right? Doku apps clone. I think I did. It's like every Sunday at midnight or 1 a.m. Okay. goes in after it's been cloned, calls Let's Encrypt, which is the free way to get SSL certs, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Which Doku has a lovely plugin for, so it calls the Doku Let's Encrypt plugin, configures that all properly because you have to do it every time for every instance. So then you get your SSL, then goes in and changes the environment variable, in my case it's the Rails env, to be staging, which I just put a simple flag in the application to prevent certain actions I don't want to happen on staging.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Long and short of it, I have a pretty stable, nothing bad has happened to it yet, instance that is mirroring production data, which is what my customer wanted. It is not on a box outside of their network. It is on the same box as prod right now. And so they have no additional security concerns, right? It's not like I'm
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
you know shunting their data over to a heroku instance or something like that it's right there so there's no additional security concerns it is automatic using the built-in doku clone functionality and a bash script that is roughly 20 lines long very simple yeah yeah and i'm done by the way it costs no additional money you know in terms of infrastructure
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Now, I was pretty confident that the way to go was my dry rub. Sure. You know, you just have that feeling. Got some brown sugar in there. Got a little maple, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Yeah, some of that's built into Doku, too, where you can, like, revert to different versions. But more importantly, let's say they say, okay, now we have staging, but we want, like, a super bleeding edge of what you guys are working on, instance. Sure. For, let's say they, like, I don't know, they want to add, like, a side module. I'm just...
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
They have not asked for this, but I'm just making this part up. That is only specific to like one division in their company. But we can have like the, you know, Jupiter Broadcasting video team instance, right? By modifying the script by like two lines.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Yeah, and this kind of problem is like the thorny kind of like data, like am I messing with data thing that I hate to do? Because, you know, you're always ultimately responsible and you never want to be screwing around where you could like lose data or anything like that. But yeah, I really like this.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And again, I mean, you know, the wise men in Washington State and Florida, although I think I was in New Jersey at the time, you know, knowing about Docker, seeing those young promising lads before they made it to the Premier League.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
No, it was Cloud9, I think. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. Right, because they were selling... They were like a platform as a service, weren't they, basically? Yeah, because their product was actually Docker, but they were selling it as... As like .something, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
.cloud. Was it .cloud? I thought it was .cloud. No, it's .cloud. No, no, you're right. It's .cloud because Cloud9 was the... Remember, we had them on too. They were like a VS Code in the cloud before VS Code.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
They have enterprise contracts, though. I mean, they're not, they're not, they're not, they're okay. They're doing okay. Yeah, right. Now...
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Yeah, not to beat the horse here, but one of the nice things about using, you is it is platform agnostic, right? So a problem I know a lot of folks in the Rails community are having is Heroku, since Salesforce acquired them, has become super stagnant and expensive. Yeah, I was going to say, yeah, and expensive. So it doesn't matter if you're on Linode, AWS.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
In fact, AWS is more than happy to take your money while you use open source projects. They're down. In this case, my customer is on Azure. like weird enterprise Azure. So it's fine. As long as you've got a Linux instance, you're good. Unless of course you're hosting an open source project that helps you make Docker containers of Mac OS.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Well, so I didn't grill these, to confess. I slow baked them. But still, came out great, right? Of course. The ribs come out. And it was as if piranhas descended, or dare I say gators, on both racks. First, they – and I said, why don't you try a little bit of the dry rub? I then went to tend to the sides. Half the rack of dry rub was gone.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I mean, I know a dude who runs a container for each of his consulting clients. Sure. Just like on his local, he never, he's a Python dev, and he just, he says, I don't want to, you know, he's using them for whatever, you know, virtual environment. But he says, I just put them all in their own container. That way, if something goes haywire, I don't have to worry about it.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And sitting there, dejected, was the messy as hell Sweet Baby Rays. Now, they were both good. But this goes to show fellow barbecue aficionados or the barbecue chieftains, I'd say, of our audience. When the kids whine that they want the boring thing they could just get at Chili's, just don't listen. I know. They don't know better. Yeah.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Yeah. Also, I think the incentives are super aligned for contractors, many of whom might be working on like a fixed scope project where literally their margins go up if they can get it done faster. Yeah.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Because they're working in data science. They have like lots of money.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
They're serious. You know, Eric does a whole R show. He's evangelizing.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
That's not how it works in the States. They give you a day and they're like, show up or, you know. You're in a lot more trouble. Forget about parole, right? Yeah. In Florida, they just feed you to the gators.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I got to give our European listeners one thing. Their prisons are like less horrific than ours. Ours are like overly – especially for stupid stuff like – it's funny. Florida has made – it's on the ballot again.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
it's gonna win probably but like the medical marijuana law here is so thin it's like i'm stressed out they give you a card sure they give everybody a card and it's all these old bitties running around like these old driving around unfortunately driving around token uplifted right like holy crap and but but 10 years ago
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
They were throwing kids in jail for like two, three years just for possessing a couple marijuana cigarettes.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Oh, it's, it's, it's my experience. I mean, this is an anecdote, right? Is it's women of that demographic, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
That's exactly what I've been told too. It's they gave – basically they gave up their wine and wine is loaded with sugar and obviously alcohol.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Well, yeah, right. They're debating that law, which probably won't pass because it's an election year, the Child Safety – I forgot the acronym, but it's another internet regulation law. That would effectively force something like this where you'd have to have digital IDs to access.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I think the word they use in it is objectionable material, which, oh, the lawyers are going to make so much money trying to define what is and is not objectionable. Oh, yeah, right. Yeah, I mean, but everything's bad. Right. I don't know. Chris, I think you're probably more of a freedom warrior on this than I am. I just we're going to get digital IDs.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Can I break your spirit even worse? Yeah, sure. So the positive scenario you described isn't going to happen. Right. And going through the airport is still somehow going to suck, even though they know who you are automatically. Yes.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I've had a very similar experience. And my commercial experiences are also infuriating because the flight I most commonly take is a roughly two and a half hour flight. And yet, each way, I'm in security or the lounge or whatever. whatever for two hours. Right. Yeah. Which is for those of us who are, you know, proficient at math, almost as much time as the actual flight. Yep.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Oh, and now, because airline prices are ridiculous, a flight that used to cost me, let's say, five-something round trip, I'm paying like 800 bucks. And the seats, I mean, yes, maybe I got a little more portly, but I used, do you remember like not paying to have a bag? Yeah. Or how about like a complimentary drink or something? And I don't mean like booze. I mean like not getting shaken down for,
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
i guess you still get the drink but yeah depending on where you sit depending on the airline all these things change but the seats are definitely less comfortable uh you know it's just where business class used to be like reasonably affordable yeah and now it's effectively first class minus 100 bucks i yeah and slightly less nice food yeah but that's it right like i i don't know it's it's over 9 000 now i'm sitting here doing the math
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Okay, so this is a common thing that I've been reading from disgruntled younger iOS developers. So the reason Steve Jobs killed Flash was a battery life concern, and just like Antipathy, he felt that Adobe was making the iPhone look crappy. And... There is no case where Steve Jobs somehow being in charge still would be better for developers.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
The reason it took so long to get the App Store was because Steve Jobs was personally against it. He had to be convinced because he didn't want developers installing software on their phone. And the idea that he would be this evangelist for PWAs I think comes from the marketing and the truly good web standard support they did for the original iMac launch and for a few years after.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I know. I'm sitting in front of one that's doing weird stuff now for $1,500. I'm so happy.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I mean, well, if Jobs is still around, the Vision Pro doesn't even get out of, like, the first meeting with him. And he probably fires the guy who showed it to him, right? Yeah, I bet that's true. Yeah. I mean, you know, there's definitely differences. I would also add... I almost think him being around would have been much better for the Mac.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
It's funny because we're past it now, but the just horrendous error of the butterfly keyboard, which was, I'm sorry, but that was a broken product on the MacBooks and the MacBook Pros. It wasn't that I didn't like it. I forgot her name, but the journalist from the Wall Street Journal didn't like it. Joanna Stern. Joanna Stern. The damn thing was broken out of the box. Yeah.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And it wasn't something that like – It was a bad design. It was a bad design.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Right. And that's like – that is – I think Tim Cook is a – he's obviously a brilliant businessman. But he's too much of an accountant. Damn, a lot of shade towards accountants today. He's – I feel like they kept the butterfly keyboard because, yeah, it would have been expensive to turn the ship and be like, we can't use these because they're broken. Right.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I mean, saying something is going to be different, you know, five years apart is like, sure, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
The one before it? Right. The one they were using for like... The one they could have rolled back to. Or they could have just like... Like, I feel like there was a... You put it best, I think. An emphasis on product, but also like quality. Like the Vision Pro, man. That's...
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And how well the BetaQuest is doing relative to that market segment, which is a tiny market segment anyway. I don't know. It's hard to argue in counterfactuals, right? Because would there be a new whiz-bang Apple product? Well, it's tough. They're a big company. And they are on the quarterly game, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Like, okay, something Tim Cook handled really well that I don't think Jobs would have handled quite so well is when Warren Buffett and other – can we call them vultures? Can we do that? We're harassing him about stock price. He basically went – this is a real thing. He went to lunch with them and negotiated a deal where he would buy back a bunch of stock. basically making them rich.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Like, that is where Tim Cook is good. Tim Cook is good at, like, I could see Steve Jobs having a fit of morals about the Chinese government, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Or Johnny Ives leaves and you just like give his new design agency a massive contract and then press release. Johnny Ives is helping us out. Right.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Just real quick. It's like we shouldn't criticize Uncle Tim too much because the man is putting up the numbers.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
It also depends on which era of jobs, right? Can you imagine a younger Steve Jobs and Twitter existing? Oh, God. He'd be canceled, right? This is a guy who famously would scream at people, right? Actually, you know, I would say it would be problematic if Steve was still around because there would be so many... Yeah, times have changed.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Yeah, I think we keep proving this false, right? You know, this is not the first time that people said, oh, development's going to die, right? I remember the battle days of, you know, everything's going to be Adobe, whatever that thing, not Air. It doesn't really matter, right? It's dead anyway.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Right, there'd be so many people leaking to places like The Verge or Joanna Stern at The Journal.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
woke well it's not even just current apple right the tech press of that time oh he's a temperamental little bit the little prick yeah but it's because he's a genius and we have to tolerate geniuses and that would be he's abusive he's toxic he yes i i to conversely elon in the 80s probably would have gotten a more uh sympathetic shake right so
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
But, you know, and all these other platforms were going to die, and it was no good, and you're screwed if you don't jump on the bandwagon. And I think we can say that that is not how that happened. I have two thoughts.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I mean, yeah, we were talking about this in our Slack, and I think it's... I was a little like, what the hell? But I was convinced that, you know, wine is probably the appropriate place for this to go. And better than just letting it die? Well, yeah, because there's going to be a lot of legacy applications that...
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
you know, that for whatever reason are difficult to port to, let's say, you know, the new .NET Core or .NET.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Go check out alice.dev for some automation ETL goodness. That's right. We can move data for you automatically from legacy systems.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I know many business types, let's call them accounting, generic accounting finance types. I'm sure there's an accounting podcast that would roast us for that. But see, we know our area. And basically, that's it. My mom is one of them. In effect, these folks are basically using Excel as a development platform. They just wouldn't call it that, right?
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
But it's like, they've got conditionals, they've got loops, they've got all kinds of crazy stuff going on. I think Satya is right. A little, God, it's going to be Clippy, isn't it? It better be Clippy. They should bring Clippy back.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
I don't know. But it's not going to wipe out the whole class of developers. I don't think. I just don't see it.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Yeah. So the idea is if you refactor just a very little bit, it's actually not that big of a change. To use this conditional API, you're going to save yourself money because I think everybody who listens to the show who uses AWS knows that Amazon charges for every goddamn thing.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
So every write, even if it's a redundant write, even if you're overwriting data that is the exact same data with the exact same data, you are paying for that.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Or if you're dealing with large assets like 3D files or something like that, you really want to... not be doing that. And I know a lot of folks, right, a good practice is to, you know, manually check in your application logic. But this basically does that for you if you implement this API. And I would care to wager it's probably more accurate and less error prone than a hand-rolled solution.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Also, it's code you didn't write that you don't have to maintain that Amazon's going to maintain for you. So, yeah, I like this. I would use this on my next project that involves AWS.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Now, I want to say I had to make two variety of ribs because the wife and kiddos protested at the idea of a dry rub.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Well, let me tell you about this drive-up, okay? Stay a while and listen to my drive-up story.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
That was great. Yeah, so my good friend Master Sephadeus came and was like, you know what we need? I'm like, no, what's up? And aren't you Darth Tyrannus? Spoilers, I guess, maybe. And come on. He's like, no, I'm not. Anyway, here's what you need. Doku apps clone. So I'm going to pat us on the back. I may break my arm doing this again, Chris.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
Do you remember we talked to that little stone company called Cloud9 that became Docker? Yeah. Nice. Yes. You know what, Mike? I'm kind of familiar with that. Yes. Well, called it. Still paying off in 2024. Doku, I mention it all the time, but if anybody somehow missed it, is a reimplementation of the Heroku Buildpack deployment API, whatever you want to call it, on top of Docker.
Coder Radio
586: Mike's Clone Army
And open source, which is the key thing. They do have a weird paid plan that you don't need to use because you don't need it. So I had a problem where I got a request that a customer wanted staging to literally mirror production data on a set amount of time. Now, everything's hosted on their own infrastructure. So it's one box.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
This is Coda Radio, episode 589, recorded on October 1st, 2024. Well, hey, friend. Welcome back to Jupiter Broadcasting's weekly talk show. Taking a pragmatic look at the art, the business, and all of the software development stuff out there. I don't know, probably the whole world of technology, you might say. I could probably say that. My name is Chris, and, well, that doesn't really matter.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Ultimately, any framework for effectively regulating AI needs to keep pace with the technology itself. I guess my question to you, Mike, is it seems to me whatever state that comes up with – well, that's not true. Really, it's California just because of where all the industry is.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
If California comes up with a state-level regulation, that's sort of de facto going to become regulation for much of the world since a lot of AI innovation is happening in California.

589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, we've seen this before with the auto industry, right? California makes some, you know, whatever, environmental law. And it's just cheaper to follow the strictest standard everywhere than have like different models of car in most cases. Right. I don't know. I was at first surprised that he vetoed this. But then thinking about it, this is a lot of money coming into California.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah. And he kind of signaled that he might not. He did sign some AI regulation that, you know, I think involves parody and actor use and stuff like that. But this, not so much.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I don't know. Do you think it should have? I mean, I feel like we're pretty early in the game yet on this AI stuff. And it very well could be a nothing burger.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Timothy B. Lee posted something that I thought put into words what I've been thinking. He writes, there's a lot of disagreements over AI regulation. It seems to flow from whether people expect AI systems to continue to be tools or whether they expect them to become more person like over time. I think there's two branches or two forks of, you know, futurism or doomerism about this one.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Like all they do, my stepson, all he and his friends do is play on the meta quest. It's crazy. They play this crazy game. I think it's called Ape Tag or Gorilla Tag.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And I think it's the one and probably you subscribe to is AI. Well, look, if AI just continues to be tools that we use, then it makes sense to regulate them the way we've always regulated tools by making sure they're safe and effective for particular uses. Like, you know, if you have AI in a driving car or something that does medical diagnosis, you know, or something that's used in hiring.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's a tool. So what we often do is in that paradigm, when it's a tool like a hammer or a saw or whatever, we hold the people using the tools responsible if they misuse them. Right. So it may not be necessary to regulate the tools directly at all.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But on the other hand, if you expect AI to become more and more independent agents with their own agendas, their own thoughts, well, then we probably need an entire new regulation regime to address that.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
If you've been drinking and watching The Terminator, yes, that's a whole different situation.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, that is what people are concerned about. The Doomers have come up with all of these concerns about, you know, misinformation and impersonating people and taking over things.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I mean, OK, so that's the question, right? So I would be curious on what your thought is. Do you think that we're anywhere near, let's call it, you know, five years to completely, I mean, basically Jarvis? I don't think we are, but.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
No, I think we're closer to autocorrect than we are to Jarvis or Skynet.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Right. I think we're closer to Clippy. That kind of works.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah. And I think what we're doing now is we're figuring out how much back-end compute we need to get something useful, how much we can layer it. Remember we saw that the pre-prompts for Apple Intelligence leaked and it's like, you be a good assistant, don't be offensive. We're starting to figure out how to massage these things and get the results we want. And so we're going to get them better.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yes, yes. You know what I'm talking about? Yes. My daughters love that game too.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But it's still an open question of how good they're going to get. And they're very, very, very, very far from Skynet. And they're much, much, much closer to autocorrect on your mobile device.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So, I mean, I think we'll know that we're going towards Skynet when you have your first AI pursue a sexual harassment lawsuit. And it'll just bring up a history of all your chats and be like, this is what he said at 2 a.m. on Saturday.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I'm joking, of course, but if you think about these nightmare scenarios that people keep bringing up, you would then have to assume that, well, then you could probably piss the AI off, right? Yeah. I do remember when Siri came out, and then Cortana came out, Microsoft's shameless rebranding of a beloved video game character. What was the first thing people started doing with Siri?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Right. And he's always going on there and finding new stuff. And then my youngest, my little guy, it's the big hot item all the kids want. It just seems like somehow we're coming to a place where that is the type of game they want to play and the experience they want to have.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Oh, I can't say that. What's up, Siri? What do you think of Cortana? And for a little while, she would actually throw shade at Cortana. She'd be like, whatever. Whatever. And then they got rid of that because Apple hates fun. Or you used to be able to say, like, lewd or flirty stuff to Siri, and she'd come back at you a little sassy and be like, you wish.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And they got rid of that because I think there was a cultural change here, too. We're just trending towards boring, right? I wouldn't be surprised if, like, you know, with the weird exception of Grok, who, god damn, if you want any picture of Donald Trump that you could possibly dream. Grok will do it for you. Grok is down.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I have not tried Grok. I have not yet subscribed to Twitter. I have not.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think they specifically, like, made it work better for political figures, and I don't know why, because I ask other things, and it's kind of... Maybe to draw attention. You can get it to be mean to you, which is, like... I forgot the name. There's another AI that basically takes your LinkedIn profile and just roasts you. Oh, that's great. Yeah, it's actually pretty good.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's like, you know, the most, the meanest person doing a background check on you just solely based on your LinkedIn profile.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You know, speaking of, you know, the first AI that's actually genuinely kind of impressed me. I don't know if you've seen these demos of Notebook LM. I was just trying it this week. Isn't that that truly? So quick recap, because I'm sure people probably know what it is, but just in case. You uploaded a set of documents, say like your research papers or whatever, and you can upload a bunch of them.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And then you kind of give it some direction and then it just starts cooking. And what comes out on the other end is a very realistic sounding podcast by two hosts. And I mean, I think most people would think, in fact, I played a little bit of my wife and then I told her it was AI and she did not catch that it was AI before I mentioned something.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I have a little bit of the audio just as an example here. Go ahead. Just so people can kind of see what I'm saying here.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It really is pretty good. And the person that did this little experiment uploaded a one-page document with production notes for the Deep Dive podcast. It just told them, oh, you've been AI this whole time. He generated this a few times, and this is the only time he got this kind of reaction. Other times they're more disassociated with it. But it really is – it generally impresses me.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, and when the Apple Vision Pro is $2,500 and the MetaQuest 3S is $299.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, but we're getting better in the really, really sad Steven Spielberg AI movie. Yeah, that's true. Spoilers. What is his name? Joel Osment was not, in fact, a real boy. And that's very, very sad. And now I'm depressed.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
To wrap up the bill, Clem, the co-founder of Hugging Face, posted, quote, this was a bad bill for the ecosystem and science in general, so I'm happy to see it vetoed by Gavin Newsom. Just like in software, we need to regulate the final applications and foster more open source science and open source to fight the concentration of power. So I agree with that. I think I take the tools view.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Oh, and from a development perspective for platform, there's no denying Quest is the leader, right? And under the hood, it's just Android, and it has great Unity integration and Unreal integration. So… Even if you're making a game or if you're not making a game, it's not hard to develop for. It also can do Android native development in Lay C++, the NDK native development kit.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And with the tool view, I think we regulate differently and we have a lot of laws already on the books that solve the problem. I think if you look at it as they're going to be independent agents, then you're going to need a whole suite of regulations. And I think then controlling the information isn't going to solve the problem.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
If these things have independent agency and they're out there creating misinformation that destroys our democracy, the solution probably won't be to limit information but to make even more information available. And so then again, I think the regulation has to be crafted very carefully.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
basically the god emperor the star of it all the star not just a regular man perhaps an alt man a sam altman who uh well he's had a really busy couple of weeks uh right after the show wrapped up he claimed that deep learning worked that super intelligence may be quote a few thousand days away and that astounding triumphs will incrementally become commonplace
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I just got to say this guy, his superpower is PR. For sure. Right.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Superintelligence is just a few thousand days away, he said. Superintelligence. And then, of course, news came out that OpenAI is planning to remove – well, actually they're planning to restructure. In fact, I thought – I think this is the clip here. I thought this Bloomberg clip actually explained and brought up a few questions.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
If you forgive their traditional news style format, they actually raise a few good questions in this clip.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So the rumors are that Sam Altman may get a 7% stake. In the shift for profit for open AI. And ironically, of course, Sam is on video multiple times saying he's not in it for the money. So you can find clips of him at a Senate testimony. Senator, I'm not in it for the money. And so now it looks like he may be in it for the money.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Absolutely. Yeah. So, OK, let's start. Let's break some of this down. So the CTO, head of research and the VP of training research all decided to leave on the same day that this news came out. So three high level people have been there from the beginning.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
No, don't spoil it. I'm actually going to watch The Godfather soon. Are you serious? I haven't seen it yet. I know, it's horrible of me. It's a wrong I'm going to write soon.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Okay, well, for those who have, yeah, that makes sense.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So this is really incredible. And then also news came out that Apple's not going to invest in open AI. And M.G. Siegler pointed out that ChatGPT is on the verge of rolling out to millions of Apple devices, iPads, macOS, lots of devices. It's not just like iPhone 15 and 16. It's also the iPads and the MacBooks.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
For the most part, those users seemingly from what Apple has told us are using the service logged out. They're not getting tracked. So they're not – I mean, I think there is a way you can link it to an existing pro subscription, but by default, it's using a logged out session.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So one of the bigger questions around all of this is the initial reporting is that Apple's not paying OpenAI for the usage. But you get a sense that like when you look at OpenAI's quarterly results that got leaked or something like that that just came out, oh, it was like an investor letter. Like it's pretty expensive for all these freebie searches.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's costing them quite a bit of money because they're paying Microsoft for to run this on Azure. So OpenAI is going to be fronting for Apple since Apple isn't paying, and they're gonna pay Microsoft for Apple's usage of ChatGPT. And that probably made sense when Apple was going to invest in OpenAI, but now that Apple's pulling out, they still have to pay for the usage.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think it's the winner, right? It's the Windows to, well, Apple's back because Apple's the other guy, right? And the field is only thinning. Microsoft just killed the HoloLens 2, which is sad, but...
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So OpenAI is giving another investor's money to Microsoft – giving investors money, others to Microsoft and including Microsoft's own money to pay for Microsoft services to run searches for iOS users.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Like with Apple pulling out of this funding deal where they were going to have – like they were going to fund and they were going to have a board member and they were supposedly talking billions of dollars. This seems like a really awkward relationship all of a sudden because you turn it on for a ton of users that are using logged out free sessions and Apple isn't paying anything for it.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think the next step is Sam comes back to Apple and says, here's what you've cost us. You've got to pay up. And then Apple announces that they've raised the cost of Apple one, but it now includes Apple intelligence or you can pay for Apple intelligence on its own for like five ninety nine a month or something.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, you're going to be paying on its own. Come on.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Or probably it's Apple, so it's $9.99 or something.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah. You got to keep that – Chris, it's that red line. It's got to go up and to the right for services revenue, especially with the pesky Epic suing them again and the EU trying to – do you know how much they need that 30 percent?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, that's what's crazy, man. If you zoom out, Apple is going to have – at some point, they're going to have a check they owe OpenAI. They're probably going to stop getting money from Google because of all of the antitrust stuff going on.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And then it turns out Apple also had a deal. I'm talking out of school. I didn't bring it to the show, but I think it's with MasterCard or Visa. One of them is also getting sued by the Justice Department. And in there, it comes out that they had an exclusivity deal with Apple. to not allow other payment networks like cryptocurrency and things like that.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And they were cutting Apple a big check every year to maintain some of this exclusivity in Apple Pay. And that's probably going to get cut out too because of the antitrust stuff.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So their Google money is getting possibly cut. Wait. So what is it? They're paying them not to use other networks?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, I should have brought the story and prepped it for the show.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Because I know Goldman is trying to chew their way out of the Apple card deal.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Chatroom is coming in clutch. It is Visa. Oh, it's Visa. Because of the fee structure. And so I have the agreement right here actually. I did save it in case it came up. Visa has deals with Apple. This is a snapshot from the court paper.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
One of the things I noted about the Quest 3S is that they say 4.5x better resolution for clarity compared to the Quest 2 for mixed reality and AR. They're continuing to push AR integration through as well, and they're making the passer cameras better and better. So I think there's – like if you look at the platform options out there, it's –
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Visa has deals with Apple in which Apple agrees that it may not develop or deploy payment functionality with the aim of competing with Visa such as creating payment functionality that relies primarily on non-Visa payment processes or payment products. Apple is also barred from providing incentives with the intent of disintermediating Visa. So part of their little deal with Apple –
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I don't know the amount. OK. See if I might have it here. I don't know if I do have it, but it looks like there is some there is some sort of visa payments to Apple amounted to hundreds of millions of dollars in 2023 is what the court papers say. Oh, so that money is likely going to get cut out. The Google money is likely going to get cut out.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And at some point, they're either going to have to build their own search or they're going to have to come up with something there. Maybe Microsoft pays. I don't know. But also OpenAI is likely going to have to bill them for their usage of their users at some point.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I've got it. They lock down iOS such that it always does a big search unless you pay $50 a year to use Google. That's what they do.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah. And then kind of talking about AI and just where this is all going, it really seems that we've had this conversation around how much power AI needs. And I guess we're on a roll with clips. But before we get into the power discussion, because Sam Altman – Just made a big pitch to the Biden administration on a massive build out of data centers that are near nukes.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And Zuck was in an interview talking about AI hardware demands. And I just think about power usage requirements when he's talking about this here in this interview. I forget who this interview is with, but I'll put a link to it in the show notes.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
With this whole Horizon OS initiative they have, I think you're probably right that if you're looking at maybe getting, and I'm not sure if this is where you're going, but if you're thinking about maybe getting in the AR space, or maybe you just want to be prepared for that if it becomes an eventuality, this does seem like the one to bet on.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You build out power. So what seems to be happening – if you translate what he just said there to power usage, they're not done yet. They need to build out a lot more. They need to really throw a lot of resources at this.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And so that's why companies like Microsoft are working with Constellation who has this – now they have this 20-year plan to restart one of the recently shut down reactors on the Three Mile Island, which this reactor has been going since 2019. These things are not cheap to get started. And so they go into this massive contract.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And I don't know if they're going to try to put data centers near that, but you know that's going to be a plan. AWS is hiring for a data center principal nuclear engineer to evaluate SMRs and nuclear fuel strategies. Apple has quietly updated their definition of clean energy in their marketing material and on their website. Nuclear energy.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
We're going to have to. So real quick, we should mention OpenAI is doing their Dev Days as of Monday. And I just have two things I think might be relevant to the audience. One, the new real-time API. I have obviously not get to try it because they just announced it while we've been on the air, basically. It is a audio to audio API, right? Similar to their audio features. That's pretty cool.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But I think the real sexy one, and this is super boring, but OpenAI is not the cheapest API to use. ChatGPT, right? They have a bunch of new features where you can kind of prime it for your specific work cases. And I like this one better.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I'm trying to get the exact name of what they're calling it, but it's almost like siloing where you basically tell it what the area it should be thinking about is. to lower the computations it has to do, right? Because they charge you by usage. They saw AWS's model and they're like, what if we made it more expensive? Like, can we do that? So, yeah, it seems interesting that...
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Is that what kind of you're thinking for, not just talking about for your kids, but for yourself?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
They're almost acknowledging that to use their biggest, sexiest O1 for developers is just not viable cost-wise in many cases. So you've got 4.0 Mini now. You've got this way to... They call it prompt caching. Thank you. Prompt caching. Which is something that Claude from Anthropicus had for some time. But hey, we're not going to talk about it. It comes with 50% discounts on your tokens.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I don't know why. I'm assuming because they must be getting some epic savings if you do these cash prompt. So I'm sure they're saving more money. But yeah, it all comes down to power and cost. And I'm really interested... To see, are they going to have to raise the rate they're charging per, you know, they have a stupid token unit thing they do.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
That is my thinking, right, for even non-game applications, right? I mean, the game use case is pretty obvious. Who doesn't like to look like a fool playing Beat Saber? But also, I think it's hard to over overwrought how. Getting it down to $299 is a huge deal, right? Let's switch light pricing. So that, you know. Right.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But like, it's basically per, you know, computational watt hour, right? Because it, oh my God, Chris, we're going into like actual like 80 sci-fi now we're charging in watt hours.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, I wonder if they have enough runway until this denser power comes on. I just doubt it. It seems like it's going to take years. So back to the nuclear thing for a second. Another nuke reactor on Lake Michigan has just closed a $1.5 billion loan to start. The reason why I mention that is because, first of all, this thing is going to produce power until 2051.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It will create 600 local jobs, 15 different trade unions in there. But there's only three reactors total that can be restarted like this, and these are the two of them now. There's only one left, only one reactor left that can be kind of restarted before we have to start building. So they can only grow so much and they may or may not be able to put data centers near these things.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
The transmission is still a massive problem. What Amazon is looking at doing and what I think Microsoft is going to end up doing ultimately is they're going to look at building reactors and data centers on the same land.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
The same land. Well, so a couple of things, right? They're reopening Three Mile Island. Yeah. So yay. Yeah. I'm actually all for that. And Bill Gates happens to own or be significantly invested in a reactor company. And to be fair, reactor, you know, it's not 1962. Reactor design has come quite a long way. And frankly, it works for the French.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You know, this is one thing where the EU, I think, was doing a better job, although Germany did just shut some down. I know there's a lot of fear around nuclear power. It's kind of not true. I mean, if you want a fictionalized fun account of the scariest possible outcomes, there's that TV show Chernobyl. But to be honest, it's based on the truth, but it's, of course, dramatized.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But the truth is actually even dumber. There was nothing really wrong. It was just gross corruption and incompetence. Again, this is Russia. Something, something. They have no tank tires. Just saying. So I know there's going to be a lot of people who go knee-jerk, environmentalism, whatever.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
If you look at it, nuclear is actually... It's so weird how it got caught up in the environmentalist movement as an enemy. My conspiracy bacon is I'm 100% sure they were being paid off by coal lobbyists.

Where I'm originally from, let me tell you, there are coal lobbyists, and they got a lot of money to throw around, especially up in Pennsylvania. Yeah, yeah. So...
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
No, I'm with you. It always seems like it's a complementary thing. It works great with wind and solar.

Right, right. It's always in the game, right? Always. Clean burning coal. This is a Pennsylvania bacon from Scranton. So enjoy.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
No, I mean nuclear. I think nuclear energy and solar and wind, like it doesn't have to be just one of these things, right? It can be all of these things. It shouldn't be one, right? But data centers, especially AI data centers, are really, really, really power hungry.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think one of the things you'll see them figure out is I would bet you, if we were making predictions, they're going to track the Bitcoin mining industry where they start doing methane capture for all the wells out there that are just off-gassing. Several Bitcoin mining companies, their sole existence now, is they go out to these sites where there's no transmission lines.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
My whole objection to the Vision Pro, it was a good demo, but it was, what was it, $3,500 or something like that?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So the oil companies are just venting the methane into the air, lighting it on fire and burning it right there, which dumps methane, which is the strongest greenhouse gas there is. The miners show up. They cap it. They run that into a generator that has like a 98, 99 percent efficiency conversion.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And then they mine Bitcoin right there on site because they have the Bitcoin miners in these containers like from the back of a truck that they just drop off depending on the scale of the operation. They put a Starlink or an LTE modem there. And the things just convert that methane off gas into Bitcoin. And then they can profit share with the oil company.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
or the owner of the land, or however the arrangement works. And I would bet you you'll see something similar with AI, is they'll work with these companies that have these methane off-gases that you can cap, you can run a generator. And the tricky part is you just need, in their case, you're going to need connection.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But depending on what the stuff is doing, like if it's doing processing work, you might be able to set up an array of Starlinks, and you might be able to have an AI in a crate, sitting on a site that's capturing gas that doesn't have the transmission lines to go anywhere. That's interesting. And maybe help reduce methane emissions. I mean, they could get on that same track.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I thought it was, I don't know, too much. Too much. Yeah. And that's before you get accessories. Yeah, but you mentioned Microsoft this week announced they killed the HoloLens 2, which launched in 2019. Yeah. Microsoft does have a military contract, so they're going to be supporting the devices until 2025. So you got Meta's whole Orion AR platform with the Horizon OS.

It's totally right up my alley. It was on sale during whatever Amazon's thing is, just for the little guy. I ended up not having to use it too much. But just to keep everybody's phones charged and laptops charged, pretty good. You know what was weird? We didn't lose cell service. Oh, that's good. I was surprised. Yeah. So it was the situation where I could actually work.

Yeah, sure. Yeah. I just like it. It's a 5G connection. You got a backup. Yeah. And you know what? As long as you're not like futzing around on YouTube or anything, I can basically work with no interruption provided the cell service. So do folks know what these things are, right? Or is this too old?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
OK. And it holds a charge for like two days. So between that and just plugging in my MacBook, the literally half hour I needed to charge it up a little bit, which I thought was hilarious. The battery life is just great. I was able to, you know, do I mean, of course, I was not focused on work. Right. I was more worried about the hurricane.

Microsoft announced that they were going to be getting involved with that. We speculated if that meant the end of days for HoloLens, and I think it does.

And he says, y'all triggered me on this one. I ended up as a high school Algebra 2 teacher after retiring from the Navy instead of going into coding. Thanks to Florida legislation, the schools are more like a prison than ever. Regardless of what time it is, all interior and exterior doors and gates have to be locked at all times if a student is on campus.

So my kids' sporting events, and of course my kids just started going to sporting events, just set in a whole new set of rules where you're not allowed to bring a bag in. You can bring a kind of like a purse-sized bag if it's clear, if you get one that's clear that they can look at. And once you are in the game, you are not allowed to leave or you cannot come back in.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So, you know, for somebody like me who might bring down our dog because it's going to be ours. And so what I will typically do is he and I will trade off and a couple of times during the game, we'll step out and go walk Levi and then put him back in the car. If you see me, the temperature's right. Make sure he's OK.

And if you had to like pee, you could walk out. It's just, yeah. My kids' schools are like this too. I know I mentioned it on our last show. It's, It's funny. They put in metal detectors and they said they were temporary. They don't seem to be moving.

And now they're spending – I believe there's like a contract. So this is, again, corruption bacon. You know somebody is getting a contract to maintain this stuff. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Apps like Slack started to nag me about the end of life a few months ago. So what does it take for me to change my phone? Well, probably just a few more decisions by tech leads. But how much time they want to invest in old Android versions, really. It's a shame that we live in a world where software dictates that when my phone is broken and not the actual state of the hardware.

We haven't had a fun Android update limit in a long time. Yeah, that's pretty terrible.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, I think the situation's gotten better on Android, but still with specific devices and specific scenarios. I think I saw with the Pixel 9, Google promising seven years of updates. That's pretty good, but you've got to be on a Pixel and you've got to be using their branch and all that. I think they said 7. I don't know.

I sure do. Okay. So I use this great app. It's called Graph Paper and a Pencil.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I've tried. I have paid stupid amounts of money for all kinds of like native or web apps to do this. And I just keep going back to my old way in terms of shapes. It depends on what level. Right. So I do UML diagrams for like database structure schema. I stick more or less to the standard of what you would get in like your your CS 101.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, and I think it's going to serve them well because when you get into multi-application work modes, you're going to have Slack on there. You're going to have your signal and telegrams and element chats and all the stuff you use. So basically any Android app you need to get your work done, it's going to be usable in some sort of Horizon OS work environment.

589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You know, I guess I would be on database design 101, but whatever. Right. Um, then if you go a level up, I actually, I shouldn't say this cause I'm going to make Adam way too happy. I've kind of adopted a lot of the event modeling and event sourcing kind of stuff.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's annoying because I've been resisting it for years, but it does – one, it's a more clear, kind of shorter way to diagram it out than diagramming every single component. And son of a bear, it does work. Okay, Canadians, have fun. Enjoy.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
There you go. You know, I'm impressed at the entire world of diagramming software from really, really basic stuff, circles and squares, all the way up to something that tries to output some kind of code that you can consume. And I always see various versions in software demos. The amount of time that goes into doing that. It strikes me as, well, I'd rather just be making the app.

I know a bunch of teachers and they all say that they can tell which kids have parents that are involved versus ones that are performatively involved versus the ones where the parents have totally checked out. FYI, the ones they hate are the helicopter Karen's. The kids are worse than the parents and the parents are terrible.

The Windows kernel issue seems like something that could easily be resolved by Microsoft being required to develop capabilities that you can hook into the Windows kernel from an external vendor point of view. Yeah, I wonder if DTrace, like BHH pointed out, Microsoft cannot implement any security measures that would be considered competition to other antivirus or similar products.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yes, I know that is one of the restrictions. He says this. Then if they want to provide a reasonable security product themselves, they are running through the same loops any other company would. This provides a more secure environment for its users. So essentially, they could take advantage of the tools they create.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Right. Yeah, I feel like there's a missing piece I still don't understand. If the detrace mechanism would work for that and it's been available, as BHH says, then why would vendors like CrowdStrike do it any other way?

Well, I mean, who among us has not written like a for loop that they put a comment, we'll refactor later. But it turns out, you know, the for loop's fast enough and it gets the job done and your customer's asking for new features. They don't care about how, you know, that screen got populated.

I thought you did. I thought you have like a JB live stream.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, you got it. JB live dot FM. You can put that in your web browser. And it's always playing old episodes. Now, he says, what would be nice is if I could somehow get the show notes with what's playing with, you know, connect to the 24-7 stream. That's not bad.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, I think maybe our Icecast host has an API where you could get the track that's currently playing and then maybe we could link that to the show notes. If anybody wanted to build that, you better believe we'd like to implement that. That's a great idea. But if you'd just like to tune in, you can go to jblive.fm and reruns.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's also in the price range where if you're buying it for yourself, you could probably, you know, if you're doing okay, you could buy one for your spouse too because it's otherwise a very isolating experience. But at $299, maybe when you decide to pull the trigger, you decide to buy two and then you can do a lot of the co-op play together stuff and then it's not so isolating.

So I mentioned Orion earlier. I want to talk a little bit more about this. So this is an impressive set of demos that they've done. It's only demo hardware at this point, but it is actually quite good. And the technology seems to be kind of like iPhone levels breakthrough when the industry was still on BlackBerrys. I'll just play a little bit of Zuck introducing the devices here to set the stage.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So it's just, I think it's really important that you set that. So this is sort of maybe the bottom of the price. We're going to see probably other devices in different price ranges between this and Apple Vision Pro. But I think your earlier point is probably fair because I don't think it appeals to people our age and older. I mean, to a degree, but more as a gimmick.

So the puck goes in your pocket. It's totally wireless. They're using micro projectors inside what are bulky glasses. And they overlay AR apps in what are pass-through lenses. And they let tech journalists, quote unquote, use it. They let several people look at it. People are saying it's genuinely impressive.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You know, they were kind of pre-stage demos, of course, but kind of going to what you're saying, maybe it's not a giant face computer, but it's a pair of AR glasses that have a computer in their pocket. Maybe that computer is their phone. Maybe it's something else. This seems like a platform people would actually be willing to put on their face because it's not snow. It's not snow goggles. It's.

more like sunglasses. And again, it's not a shipping product, but it's pretty impressive because they've also paired it with a wrist strap that is watching the electrical nerve signals in your hands and using that to interact with the UI in the Orion environment. And so instead of having to do hand tracking or have controllers, this wrist strap is
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
is watching your nerve system, essentially, your pulses in your nerve system, and interpreting that as gestures in the UI. And that is going to get used in all kinds of metaproducts. They've been teasing this for about nine months now or so, this product that you could use with the Quest or now with these Orion glasses.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And so they have this whole system, the wireless puck that goes in your pocket, the glasses with the integrated battery and display, the wrist strap that watches your nerves. It's kind of, I mean, it's early, but it's kind of like, it's kind of a leap, I think, in this technology.

Yeah, they have like a whole group internally who's using them. I just want to say that very lucky for Zuck that the buddy holiday glasses came back.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think in an office place, this is way more acceptable than goggles that actually cover your eyes.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Exactly. And when you forget to take them off at the bar and go to the urinal, you're less likely to get punched in the face. So that's a plus.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You know, I actually think it's equivalent, some equivalency. It's not as, not as going to be as easy, but AirPods...
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
really stood out these white airpods that everybody wore were you know really kind of unique and then as time has gone on like when you go to the airport almost everybody has airpods or they have some kind of you know headphone system you know big old bulky like noise cancelling headphones and we've completely normalized people walking around downtown
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I don't think it has the actual sticking power that it does like it does with the kids. I think for them, it's like the next obvious step up from a phone. They're not going to go to the computer. That's like old, right? It's weird. It's slow. My kids have laptops, but they also really like VR, and they definitely prefer their mobile devices over their laptops.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Wearing either AirPods or big, you know, headphones. And I don't really think it's much different than that. It just goes over your eyes. But as long as you can still see them, they can see you and you're just pulling up ancillary information. I think this could be socially acceptable. I'm not saying it should. But in a way, it's kind of better than looking down at your phone.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's more socially acceptable than looking at your phone all the time.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yes, it makes it easier to pretend like you're listening to somebody when you're really just scrolling Twitter. I agree.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I can see your glasses are flashing. Are you listening to me?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Oh, my God. You're going to have kids taking them to school, putting, like, tape on the light so no one can see.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But we're really getting a sense of what they spend all that R&D money on. You know, like... I think that's why they're showing this off is like, Hey, here's some results that we've got. And by the way, vague AI implied integration here that's going to be gangbusters, right? They can do that too.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
He said in the interview that he did with The Verge that, you know, he made a bet that the AR stuff would happen before the AI stuff and he was just wrong, right? So that, you know, they really are killing it. I was not a quest believer before, but yeah, turns out if you just stick with something and iterate on it, you can actually get there.

A little acquisition news. TMB Mad Botter has been bought by Meta. No, I'm kidding.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Gosh. Well, I guess I'm not really saying that we're going to see these in a year or two. But five years? Five years? I could see it. I don't know if the problem is I just don't think I want Meta to be the company I buy these from.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, you don't have a choice, Chris. This is... So, okay, the bad part. Zuck kind of thinks he's Augustus, you know, the Caesar. Yeah. I've noticed. I've noticed that vibe. He's walking around in custom t-shirts with weird Latin phrases on them. There's definitely a kind of imperial thing going on here. So, you know, I...

Do you think this is their iPhone moment, as some of the tech press are putting it? No, this is not going to be an iPhone moment.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It has to be shipping, right? So, one, it has to be shipping, right? You could just leave it there. It's not shipped. And we should remember, when the iPhone came out, it initially wasn't gangbusters, right? One, it was too expensive. Well, we have to go through the history of the iPhone, but... Didn't have a keyboard. Didn't have a keyboard, which was a huge dig on it, right?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And actually, it didn't have the fastest cellular antennas for the first generation or so.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And it was on a shitty carrier called Singular in the U.S.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah. We'll see. The problem for the Zuckman is by the time he can get this down to where it's a viable commercial product that people might be able to afford, what else is going to happen in the industry?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Right. And now they've sort of tipped their cards. People are going to be working harder on their solutions.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Or maybe they won't copy this, right? Like you mentioned the AirPods. What about, and they're kind of getting there with the new AirPods Pro, but how about we run the AirPods forward five years? Do they become your AI interface?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, they definitely could become part of the controller input. You know, like they have the new shake the head to accept or reject notifications and interact with Siri. It seems to me that the AirPods are actually just perfect for more sensors, temperature sensors.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Things that you could feed into the watch for health information and stuff that you could feed into a VR slash AR environment for position, for head tracking, for acknowledgement of notifications without actually having to move your hands. Yeah, I think they have to go that direction. And I think they're uniquely positioned to integrate all that stuff.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And I wouldn't be surprised if we did see our kids and younger start to really take to this as a primary computing platform, especially for work, because just experimenting with it, I can see where it's at today at a ground level. This is before they've made a lot of the improvements and changes in new hardware. It's already getting pretty usable.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I'll tell you, I am strongly considering buying a second pair of AirPods just because I, one, got the cheap ones, and two, to have two. I hate not having my AirPods. I use them all the time around the house.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
You should get the pros and tell me how the conversational awareness is.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
my problem with the pros is I hate the soft padding on earphones. Cause my ears are, this is a little gross. My ears get very waxy and that soft padding kind of gunks up. Sure. So I, if they made them in the hard, I don't know what they call that. Just, you know, the, the part that goes in your ear, right. Just, just like they do with the regular ones.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I would be more interested, but I do like that conversational awareness stuff. That is really, that does look cool in the demo.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, I'd love to know if people have tried that with the AirPods. Sounds like it's pretty decent with the PixelPods. Boost it and tell us. I guess also I'd like to know, we didn't bring it up directly in the show, but since we're wrapping up, my question would be, how do you feel about big tech leading the restart of the nuke reactors? It's going to be fine.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, I can imagine there's some people. I guess to me the concern would be, would you rather this was a state-run initiative or a private company-run initiative? It seems like both would have pros and cons. That's really what I'm asking. Write in and boost it and let us know. Mr. Dominic, where should people find you throughout the week?

Thank you so much for listening to this episode of the Coder Radio program. See you right back here next week.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, I think we're going to get there, right? I mean, I'm just looking at my workstation here. I have my 27-inch 4K, whatever it is, monitor. I have a mechanical keyboard that's louder than a dog barking. My laptop. It theoretically all I would need is one visor. I get effectively unlimited screen real estate. Right. Yeah. Multiple windows.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I'm glad we took time to prepare. You probably have it down by now, I imagine, for the big storms coming in.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And I guess I could still use the physical keyboard, but I'm sure there's a way around that, too. I don't know. We're not there yet. Right. But it's possible.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So Mr. Nick gives us real time. It is it is thirty five hundred dollars new.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think where I got twenty five is I just checked on eBay like a few days ago just to see.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Which is terrible. Are they still on the Vision Pro for $2,500 now? Maybe I saw it for that.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
That's a hell of a loss. $1,000 off retail just came out.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
$2,700. The 256 gig used. This one must be bad. Oh, it's not a buy now, but it's going for a current bid of $1,027.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
OK, but they think that'll get bid up, I'm sure. Probably, yeah.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
In various price ranges, but I actually see several on here for $2,500. Huh. Yeah, that's not a great – that's not a typical value to hold for Apple. All right. Well, we got some feedback this week. BHH wrote in asking if there was any interest in the community in developing applications and applets for Cosmic.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
He says, I'm currently working through the process of creating an applet for it with no documentation on how to get it on the panel or panel settings. I'm about 75% of the way there. I did manage to get it in the panel. And I'm wondering if making a tutorial on it would be worth it. So I guess boost in or write in and let us know. I wonder if others are looking at Cosmic.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It seems sort of trivial to talk about it, but did you see... That your buddy Zuck is really trying to get your business? Not only did he try, he succeeded. Oh, did he? Did you pre-order a MetaQuest 3S? I sure did, just before the show. Wow, really? Really. So, okay, why? What made you decide the MetaQuest 3S is it again? Because you've tried the Quest 2 or 3, I think?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I recall we used to talk about this when new Linux desktop environments were coming along. We would ponder if their toolkit and all that was worth the investment of time. But we have kind of just – with the rise of web applications, we've kind of just let that go, I think.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I mean I would even say like is anybody other than like very large professional applications or weird glass menagerie style, pet it because it's beautiful, indie Mac developers – One or two still exist. Let's not be that sad. Is anybody really developing desktop apps now? I mean, everything I'm doing is, even if I wrap it in, like, Electron or something like that, it's just a web app. I'm sorry.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And we're all just going to live with it. I'll just buy more RAM. It's fine.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
RAM is very, very cheap. So, yeah, I don't know. I mean, all right, let's see what I have open right now. This is a fun game. I have Slack, which is Electron. Discord, which is not even trying to hide that it's Electron.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Airmail, that's one of my... Okay. That is a precious native map.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Native map, yeah. You're in the Matrix chat, so you probably have Element running, which is... Element running.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Electron. Chrome, which is looking at all the other Electron apps and being like, children.

589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Everything the sun touches is my kingdom, is what Chrome is saying. It's the Mufasa of repressors.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
preview but that's because i had to review pdf before this uh okay yeah and the stuff that that mac just opens right like yeah oh man i don't know why every time i'm working somehow the icon for the tv app pops up it's like you could just like watch uh something else like slack off for an hour but that's it of the apps i voluntarily put on this bar They're almost all electron.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
It's horrible. And the only one that's not is obviously Chrome, but I would argue, you know, it's Chrome. And Fantastical, which, again, is one of those precious Mac apps I bought a long time ago. Yeah, it's not cheap either. It's not cheap, but if they try to move me to that subscription model, I'm probably not going to do it. I don't care. I use my phone for all that stuff now.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And to be honest, because I use Gmail, you know, Google, whatever they call it, Google... Is it Google Work still, or is it Google Suite?
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
G Suite now, okay. Yeah, their web calendar is actually really good.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I'm disappointed, but I know. Sean wanted to give us some follow-up on something like eBPF for Windows. He says, you know, Windows actually has DTrace. He says he does believe that CrowdStrike could build something that uses DTrace to trap kernel syscalls and inspect behavior inside the kernel.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
He said, if I were Microsoft, I'd be working to build an entitlement into the kernel capability system, which would allow use of DTrace for certain signed pieces of software. Right now, if you enable DTrace, it's enabled for the whole system, and it's fantastic for bug hunting and hacking. Yeah, good old Brandon Gregg, right, in DTrace. That is a great point.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I forgot that Microsoft had ported that over, and I didn't realize that companies like CrowdStrike could take advantage of it.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Windows 14, okay, so we're going into the future, although the way they name things, who knows, is going to be a Debian-based Linux distribution with a modernized Windows user shell on top of it.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
All right. I mean I would be – I don't think I'd be too surprised to be honest with you. I don't think I would be.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I think it makes a lot of sense, right? Unless they have so – they're afraid of legacy and they have so much – but they're getting there. They're weirdly getting there, right? And they're showing such little care for the legacy Windows applications that are on there.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, that's definitely accelerating. I've definitely noticed that.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Yeah, like just use WSL. You're a developer. Have fun. It's fine.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Well, I've got a couple of quick announcements for you. Number one is we finally have an annual members program for the Jupiter Party. Some of you have been asking for a way to subscribe annually. So this is for all the shows. So you get the Coderly, you get the extra feeds for Linux Unplugged, you get the self-hosted post show and more.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
But also, when you sign up with the annual plan, you get one month for free. We just take one month off as a thank you for becoming a member annually. So I have a link to that in the show notes. I don't have like a special URL for it yet, but I know some of you have been asking for this. So it's here now. You can support all the shows on an annual membership basis. We really appreciate that.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Now, announcement number two. Coder Radio is now live in the Podcasting 2.0 app. So if you already have a Podcasting 2.0 app or you've been wanting to try one, now, before we go live, we'll have a pending item in your library. So you can see, oh, yep, the show's going to be, it looks like Tuesday this week at noon Pacific. Okay, great.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
So yeah, I have it too. Kids play with it. You know what it was? I think, Chris, there's a generational thing here. You and I, I mean, I think we get it, right? Like what it does. But these younger kids, I'm talking like preteens, you know, that like come to my house and all that kind of fun stuff, you know, friends of kids, right? Yeah. they love it.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And when we actually go live, you'll be able to hit play right there in your podcast player and just tune into the live stream as we're doing the show. Or as I'm doing the pre-show or the post-show, whatever it might be. It'll be right there now in your podcasting 2.0 app of choice. We are lit, as they call it, which is the live item tag. It's pretty exciting.

And all you need is a new podcast app at podcastapps.com. Well, last week we talked about this pretty aggressive AI regulation bill in California. It had some good bits. It had some kind of harsh bits for open source. And it appears that Gavin Newsom has vetoed SB 1047, citing concerns of burdening AI companies.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
The bill's broad application and its potential to hinder innovation while not actually fully addressing all the risks of AI. He cited multiple factors in his decision, including the burden the bill would have placed on AI companies.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
Quote, while well-intentioned, SB 1047 does not take into account whether AI systems is deployed in a high-risk environment, involves critical decision-making, or the use of sensitive data. Instead, the bill applies stringent standards to even the most basic functions, so long as a large system deploys it.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
I do not believe this is the best approach to protecting public from real threats posed by this technology." He says that the bill would give the public a, quote, false sense of security, saying, quote, So he's kind of saying there, like, You know, some of these smaller models may be the problem, and we don't think this addresses this enough.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
And I was concerned that it does – it burdens the open source developer too much with all of the having, like, hire somebody to audit stuff on an annual basis, et cetera. And Newsom is still open overall to regulation. He says, let me be clear. I agree with the author. We cannot afford to wait for a major catastrophe to occur before taking action to protect the public.
Coder Radio
589: Blame the Tools using the Tools
California will not abandon its responsibility. Safety protocols must be adopted. Proactive guardrails should be implemented. And severe consequences for bad actors must be clear and enforceable. I do not agree, however, that to keep the public safe, that we must settle for a solution that is not informed by empirical trajectory analysis of AI systems and capabilities.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Okay. And could you, that's how I'm trying to see how to phrase this. Could you actually do like a full on, you know, let's say, I mean, I could definitely see the case because of R's natural strengths in, you know, displaying graphical data, right? Stuff like that. Could you do just a full-on dashboard for the director of blah, blah, blah at Acme Corp in R at this point?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I would say that there's probably good reasons to write certain types of software in Rust. With that said, I don't know if I had to bet, and I guess we can do it on the end of the year show if I was right or wrong about this. I do think we're going to see more drivers written in Rust.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Okay, so I know this could be my total ignorance here, but I'm kind of getting F sharp vibes, right? The use cases sound pretty similar. And the you can be a functional Pharaoh if you choose, or you can lean in on some features. Is that that fair or way off base?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Okay, makes sense. So let's say I'm putting down my Serpentine and my greedy Ruby Mineways, and obviously I'm still going to be mourning for Objective-C forever. I'm wearing black the rest of my life, like a goth kid. But let's say I want to see the light of R. I know that there is RStudio. I know that VS Code has a pretty good extension. What else do I need to get rocking?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I would suggest because this is kind of a lot of the feedback was about the drama surrounding this, that, you know, if you are a rust advocate, as I call you, you know, crap people. Maybe honey instead of vinegar might be a little more effective dealing with the folks who maintain the kernel. Obviously, Linus is the obvious one, but it's a team effort and there's a lot of people involved.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So is that the happy path for someone new? Just like if you want the easy way, the way where you get the most support is RStudio itself?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Python and R. So it's almost like a super Jupiter notebook of some kind.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
You know, it is kind of funny how VS Code has, it's only what, is it six years old now?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
and someone fact check me, we'll put it in the next show for housekeeping, but how it's just kind of become the IE6 of dev tools now, right? Everybody's running it. It's basically the default.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Yeah, that's one of the... Like, whenever I have to work on Windows, I do a lot of WSL2. Mm-hmm. Right? Because... You know, I've had to learn some PowerShell, but I just don't want to. I hear you. But EN Ruby is famously very not great on Windows.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
It's garbage. So I just run a WSL instance, and I was shocked the first time I tried this. I popped open VS Code, and it's like, hey, you also have this whole Linux system on your system. Are you trying to work in that? It was like two clicks, and it's like, okay, cool, you're fine. Act as though you were on your Mac or your Pop! OS machine. Don't worry about it anymore.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So sometimes just railing at them and telling them that your way is better, even if you're right, which I don't know. I'm not a kernel developer. I'm not qualified to say yes or no on that, is just not going to get the reaction you want. So I don't know. That's my dad lecture for the day. Use honey, not vinegar. So, Eric, are you enjoying some tea with honey or vinegar in it?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
And the terminal, I'm sure everyone knows this, right? The stupid embedded terminal automatically switched as soon as I said yes to the WSL terminal. If I put it full screen and ignored all the pop-ups to update and the crap that Dell put on it, so actually there's a lot, but ignoring all these caveats, I would not have known I was on Windows.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
All right. So we're starting out with R. We're downloading R studio or Positron rather. Either way, I guess. So like Python developers, we all have the pain of dealing with either, you know, Pyenv or Mize or insert your environment handling tool here. Does R have, I'm sure it does, right?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
The problem of you need different versions of R for different applications that are either stuck because of dependency reasons or maybe it's something Greenfield and you want to get the hottest new stuff. Is there such a thing as like an RN for something like that?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Ah, yes. Toolchain management as your system updates or just gets a little more cluttered. Always a good time.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
My favorite is because the insane way Mac OS handles their Unix toolchain is actually via Xcode. Oh, yeah. And it's like, oh, you updated Mac OS, so now you kind of have to update Xcode in some cases. So let's say you do, right? You update Xcode, and all of a sudden, your RubyGems file, it's like, no, I can't find OpenSSL. I hate myself, right? And Homebrew is broken.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
This is why you Linux guys who use Linux full-time, you don't have to experience the pain of having to delete Homebrew and then reinstall all of your Unix toolkit just to then go back into every project, which if you're a consultant can be quite a few, and re-download every package, hoping to God... that it figures out that there's a new homeroom install and, you know, links, right?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
The SSL one was really bad because Apple actually, for good reason, there was that, I think it was Heartbleed. They literally got rid of it and they made it so you couldn't get the old one anymore. Yep, yep, I remember that. Remember this legacy application that people haven't called you in three years? Well, they just called. Oh, and you can't even run it. Good luck.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Oh yeah. You have some Nix people over there too. I think Chris is running Nix right now. I wouldn't be surprised. He's hopping around a lot. I know he does all the reviews of the distros. So, okay. What is, this is my last R question and then we'll jump to something fun. Or maybe, you know, maybe fun.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
What is the one thing someone, you know, an experienced developer coming from, I guess Python would be the most analogous, right? They're doing data science stuff in Python, but they need to understand moving into R.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So yeah, it's great to have you again. And yeah, we should do a spiky hair special one day. That would be interesting, especially given some of the changes they seem to be making in their development process.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
All right. So Eric, let's shift gears. Folks may not know this about, well, either of us really, but we both like retro games. We alluded to our good friend Sonic before.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Jeez, guys. If you really want to read a sad story, anybody, just go ahead and read about Tom Kalinske's tenure as the president of Sega of America. It's like being the professor of the dark arts. You go in. You have to know you're screwed, right? I feel like once you've read the first Harry Potter book and they're like, oh, look, this dude's going to be the new Professor of the Dark Arts.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Well, that guy's got the demon ass. Hey, what happened to the last five?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Michael Katz, the guy before Kalinske, got demolished. I mean, Kalinske himself gets stabbed in the back. It's just a crazy... crazy situation that we will talk about another day because the madness hasn't stopped. They had like a little wall where they chilled out and were making, you know, games about Napoleon and Caesar.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
But now it's Europe that's a basket case because America is basically making Sonic rehashes over and over again.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
That's all they make. Listen, you gotta think that there was somebody over in Sonic USA saw the Mario movie and was like, Yes, we have something to do. But we're not talking about that today, even though clearly I'm dying to. Yes. I got my little paws on the chromatic Game Boy system by a company called Mod Retro, who, believed or not, was started by the dude whose name just slipped my mind.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
But he was one of the original founders of Oculus VR before they got assimilated into Facebook, which then, you know, transformed into Meta. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Fascinating. So this is a FPGA, which for those not in the know, is a field programmable array, right? What that means is the hardware can be reconfigured. What that means for our retro gaming purposes is you are not emulating.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
You are shoving an actual cartridge in there, and it is not running on any kind of emulation. It runs... Let me see if I get this right. Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and... Oh, yeah, that's it. Yeah, Game Boy, Game Boy Color does not run Game Boy Advance cartridges, unlike the Analog Pro. I got into this via GameStop, believe it or not. I saw an ad on Instagram. This is how I live my life now.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Sega is always ready to slip on whatever banana peel you are willing to throw in front of it.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
And I impulse bought one of these, the GameStop edition. It's basically styled to look like an NES. I've got to say, this little device for the price is surprisingly full-featured. And you can read a very long blog post by these folks about the pains they took to get it pixel perfect and screen exactly right. Game Boy Color games are absolutely gorgeous. So far, everything I've tried works.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
They also are supporting developers to actually develop indie Game Boy Color cartridge games that you can buy at the other website, which I think is crazy. Oh, yeah, you and me both. That is wild. Eric, there is this whole community... of tiny one- or two-man shops where what they do for a living is they make new games for old systems. So in this case, we're talking new Game Boy Color games.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Great for content. So you also host a very successful podcast. And is it a Pirate Thing one? It's our podcast? Yeah.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I've been talking to some. I'm trying to get some on. Because, I mean, we've got guys over here programming an assembly. They'll look at RR and they'll look at Ruby and be look at me and be like, oh, child, they could just go back. You know, what are you talking about? Objects. What's an object? What are you crazy? So who is this device for?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Well, I wish I played Game Boy Advance games because I just love the Game Boy Advance.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
That's right. Avoiding the dark gaze of the teacher. Yes. Yes. So I was impressed with the build quality. It is not plasticky. It's like a magnesium of some kind. But they did the analog thing where they did a limited run. And the only one you can buy now is the deal they made with GameStop to make GameStop's weird custom one, which looks beautiful. But it's kind of a shame.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I'm hoping that the plan is they're going to come out with a chromatic, I guess, advanced. If you want to infringe on the trademark. Nintendo famously very chill about their trademark.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Yeah. But my hope is that they do something like that. Because they... I mean, so it charges via batteries, but you could buy a rechargeable pack, which I actually think is great for long-term longevity of this device. Agreed. Because, yeah, lithium-ion built in, eventually that dies, right? Yeah, yeah. Your host. It has a USB port. Yeah, port.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Almost a USB hole port that you can plug in and you can live stream your Game Boy Color or regular Game Boy game anywhere you want while playing it handheld plugged into your computer.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
That is so slick. I was going to try it later this week, plug it in and see if I could stream it in the Discord here. Oh, yeah. Just to see like, what's the quality like? Seriously, how much does this hold up? Yeah. It seems good so far. So really impressed. Have you ever touched one of these FPGA devices?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So the problem with that, as someone who just tried that, is your 8-year-old, if you have one, your kid is going to turn on the game, look at it for 10 minutes, I'm back to you. And I ask you very sincerely, why wouldn't I just play Roblox?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Now, your mileage may vary. In this household, it did not go well.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I'm like, oh, no. Well, mine does Codewiz, and he's now building his own Minecraft mods. Oh, man. So he's hopeless. He's gone. Yeah. In fact, he used to love, he still does like Pokemon. So I'm like, all right, I've got a Pokemon fire red card, not fire red, I'm sorry. I've got a Pokemon yellow. It was the Pikachu one, the Game Boy Color one. I got this. Let's try it.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
He looked at it and he's like, okay, but I could just play sword and shield. My damn. there's your debbie downer moment there's your debbie downer moment all right but real fast i teased it and when you have to do it now because this will be all all the people chat about you saw the light of them and left the let's say desolation the degradation that is emacs
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Wow. So there you have it, folks. The flames have died down. It is over. The answer is Vim. Unless you're not old like us, and then you're probably just using VS Code.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Well, you see, the nice thing about, I used to just say for, for Emacs, Michael, we'll call him E-Michael. Sure. No, Michael Nax. I love it. Okay. That sounds like a product Apple might sell one day, actually. The Michael Nax Pro. Yeah.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
No, Tim Cook is suing me right now. Right. You gotta, if you're gonna stick with Emacs, right, at this point, you gotta start acting like Gandalf. Because it's not that you're stuck in your ways and you're not adapting to newer technologies. You've just seen, you're enlightened, right? You're like a higher level of being.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
This is how I justify my love of Objective-C, which is demonstrably worse than most languages. In almost every batch.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
It's like, let's take all the bad stuff from C. Memory safety? No way.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Hell yeah, let's get some pointers in here. Wait, wait, wait. I can send circular messages? First of all, what the hell's a message? And second of all, oh, I know. I want to call a function with brackets. everything's in a right now, is it? No, but it looks like it is. Also, if you're doing Coco, which if you're doing Objective-C, you definitely are. Yeah, you are.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Your method names are actual full sentences if you follow the idiom. It's kind of crazy. I still do that, though.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Do you know, I'm writing a fairly large extension to Alice right now. It's a GUI extension. And I restarted it three times.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Yeah, once in Angular, I did one experiment in React, and this third one that's actually going to ship super, super soon is just vanilla ECMA standard JavaScript. It is such a better development experience than using one of these heavy frameworks. Yeah, you don't get some of the sexy stuff. I forgot what Angular calls it, but there's the fancy two-way binding stuff that's really nice in Angular.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
But the standard has caught up so much, I don't care. And most importantly, if you do it the way I did, you avoid NPM. Yes. Circling all the way back is probably a good idea.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
This is one of the things that drives me crazy. Anytime you're somehow like compiling JavaScript or doing any kind of build process and it's a front, like it's not like a node application. Okay, whatever. But it's like a front end thing. I feel like you've just, you've drank the demon blood and you're hearing Cthulhu. You've gotten that. Fair point.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
And we just made that like, I look at old Rails projects that have like jQuery, Webpacker. It's like, it's really not that hard to just like rearrange items on a table via, you know, asynchronous JavaScript. Why did we add all this? I don't even know what to call it, like crud.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Just minify your dependencies. Yep. Host them yourself. First of all, computers are very fast now, so are phones. Browsers are very good. There is absolutely no reason for you to rely on any kind of create. You could even just do the import from a CDN thing most of the time.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Because it turns out that the JavaScript package you're using, someone else is probably using too, especially if it's something dumb like, I don't know, Bootstrap, right? Yeah. So if you do it the right way and the person's browser would be like, I already have this. I'm just going to use the one I have. There you go. It always ends up with me complaining about JavaScript.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Awesome. So for all your R needs, Eric is your man. So with that said, I think we should ask the obvious question because I have a feeling most of our listeners are not going to know what R is.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
No, that's pretty awesome. We should probably know for folks who aren't familiar, WebAssembly, right, is what it sounds like, assembly for the web. So it's a way to... Other languages can compile to it and run in browsers. JavaScript does compile to it. Usually, well, I guess not usually anymore, but the toy, the demo used way back when was like games, right?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
But a key thing to remember is WebAssembly has absolutely nothing to do with how you package your JavaScript app. You do still do not need NPM or anything like that. Exactly. So you could still do vanilla. You could write it in R. I know a lot of folks. So we're going to have a Microsoft guy on pretty soon.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I don't want to speak out of turn because I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure a lot of how some of their webby front end stuff works. It's like C Sharpie via WebAssembly. Oh, the plot thickens. Okay. Well, you know, they're embracing it. Yeah.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
That should be up, hopefully, by the time this airs. Like I said, today's the 21st. This is due to air on Monday. So, you know, inshallah, right? Hopefully it works. I do apologize for the inconvenience. It is always available, however, Coder.show.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I know, yeah. The lionesses in PR are very tough. You got to watch out. Exactly. So, all right. Eric, the last question I always ask, what is one tool? It can be anything, right? It could be your coffee machine. It could be our tool. It could be, I don't know, a very special toothbrush that you can't live without. Oh boy, where do I begin? But honestly... Just one.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Yeah, if you're a gamer, it's basically like a hardware macro grid.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
All right. So Eric, where can the folks find you on the socials when they need help with their data processing?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
As always, you can find the show, Code Radio Show on Twitter, Code Radio Show, I think, on Blue Sky. And again, just like Eric said, the Discord's the way to go. If you're going to do one thing, make it the Discord, because that's where all the conversation, really everything's happening.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So that's like a RubyGems or a pip for folks coming from Ruby and Python, right?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
And if you are normally a YouTube podcast user and still don't have feedback, you can just go to Coder.show, copy the RSS feed and do it that way into YouTube podcast. That does work. But again, hopefully by the time you've heard this, it is just there and searchable and good. So sorry about that little hiccup. Other piece of housekeeping, the Discord is popping.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Misa here again! Hello, hello. Welcome to Coder Radio. Today is the 21st of February in the year of Uncle Elon 2025. I'm your host, Mike Dominick. I'm joined today by Eric Nance, who will come on shortly. Just have a quick housekeeping couple things to go through. All right. You YouTube podcast users. So... Google is still processing the feed. Apparently, it had to all be reprocessed.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Wait, wait, wait. You don't get to decide. Okay, finish what you're saying, but we've got to jump back to that.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So a quick question. Let's say we have Eric's amazing package in CRAN. And my application depends on it for who cares, whatever it does, right? And then it gets archived. Me as the, I guess I'm not the end user, but as the end user of that library, right? The developer developing the main application. What happens to my app?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
So I guess my concern with CRAN would be, you know, let's say I'm trying to, I don't know, put in a package called tidyverse, but instead of the Y, it's another I. And what it does is it turns your screen tie-dye. And I'm doing this as a malware attempt. It seems that these wizards who curate this are going to stop me. You're absolutely right. I don't like that. What about my fake jQuery?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I mean, I've been doing this for 20 years. Come on. You're killing me. you're saying I can't just put an umlaut and have the same package name but you know like a little accent maybe a tilde somewhere and just like you know hack people's actually have people do it for me hack their own systems
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
People are just having a grand old time helping each other with coding questions, IT questions, a lot of gaming chatter, stuff like that. I recommend you join the Discord. That seems to be the newest popular community channel for the show. Bye. Bye.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I mean, and really, you don't have to kick some projects anymore.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I can't resist. It's really, although, you know, take kind of just being the lawyer here for the high priestess of, priestess, I should say, of a priest, I don't know, of Cran, I mean, I forgot which MPM package it was, but it was a massive exploit affecting hundreds of thousands.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
And we had one in the Python world where it was just somebody put in a fake package that had a suspiciously similar name to a very popular package. And it was malware, right? And people not paying attention just installed it.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Makes sense, makes sense. So, okay, I know the reputation, and I like that you put this in the notes, it is R is kind of a research language, but that's not true anymore, is it?
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Let me tell you something. The crap people are everywhere. They're like the Borg. They want to get their claws into everything. I am not surprised that they've gone for the beautiful R community.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
gigantic margin i mean i thought reddit would take off but it didn't it's it's the discord it's totally free it's no commitments you know you just come say hi be nice keep it clean you're good to go that link is in the show note last piece of housekeeping a little bit of feedback i love you message to me about this rust in the linux kernel drama I don't have a dog in this fight, truthfully.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
I will say, Pip is not... My favorite. This is, I mean, this is usually my dunk coming from the Ruby side of life. I'm like, Ruby Gems is just far better at handling dependency managements
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
on its own than pip although you get crazy situations there too that way beyond the scope of what we're doing today but that would be an interesting thing to kind of look at the crappiness of dependency management in general yeah that could be a whole series of episodes on that alone absolutely and this is how one guy on the ruby gems team ruined mike's weekend so You mentioned web development.
Coder Radio
608: R With Eric Nantz
Yeah, I wouldn't really think of R for that. Is there like a Rails or Flask for R or what's the deal there?
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Weißt du, das Gefühl, weil manchmal hast du einen verdammten Partner und du bist auf der Ambulanz und denkst dir, ich hoffe, dass nichts wirklich schlecht heute passiert, weil ich mit diesem Mann bin, weißt du.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Aber als ich mit deinem Vater auf der Ambulanz war, ob es bei der privaten Ambulanz oder am Feuerhaus war, habe ich gesagt, es ist egal, was passiert, weil wir alles können, was in die Pipe kommt.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ja, das ist, weil Vater ein Arsch ist. Und du hast gesagt, Daddy's a dick. Und Ken und ich konnten nicht mehr lachen. Du hast immer wieder gesagt, Daddy's a dick, Daddy's a dick. Deine Mutter war so wütend an uns, dass wir dir das gezeigt haben.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
I was brand new EMT. They hired me. He wasn't there at the time. He was on a vacation in Arizona. And all these guys were like, yeah, Ken is this great guy and he's a legend and all of this shit they're telling me. And I was like, okay, this guy must practically walk on water, you know. And he came back from Arizona and he was like telling everybody what to do. And I was just watching, you know.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
And then... One day they paired me up with them. We were working on the ambulance together. And before we went into a place to take care of a patient, he tells me, I do all the talking. I call the hospital. I take care of everything. I'll tell you what to do. You just listen to me and do what I tell you. And I told him, fuck you, man. I know what I'm doing.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
I'm not one of these mopes that you work with here. I said, I know what's going on. Don't talk to me like that. And we were friends ever since then. I was the first person that stood up to him there.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
He had a partner who was a very strange person. And he was trying to tell Ken what to do. And Ken was yelling at him. Und der Kerl hat angefangen, an ihm zu schreien. Ich weiß nicht, der Kerl hat seinen Geist verloren und hat angefangen, an Ken zu schreien. Und Ken hat ihn an den Nacken gefangen und hat angefangen, ihn zu schreien. Und der Kerl hat sich verkleidet. Und er ist rausgegangen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Auf der Rückseite der Ambulanz. Das war der Kerl, mit dem du gearbeitet hast? Ja, er war ein Paramediker, mit dem wir gearbeitet haben. Und er hat sich verkleidet. Und er hat sich verkleidet. Und er hat sich verkleidet. Und er hat sich verkleidet. Und dann wächst er auf. Dein Vater hat seinen Nacken verlassen und der Mann ist sofort aufgewacht. Und er sagt, ihr habt das gesehen?
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ihr habt das gesehen? Er hat mich verletzt. Ich dachte, ich sehe nichts, ich gehe nach Hause. Und alle Feuerwehrleute waren so, ich sehe nichts. Was ist passiert? Wir haben nichts gesehen. Er war ein kleiner Mob-Boss, oder?
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Es ist auch nicht seine Spezialität, es auf den Knopf zu nehmen. Sobald er gekrankt wird, ist es ihm egal, wer da ist. Er wird sein Stück sagen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Sie würden uns nicht mehr zusammenarbeiten lassen. Und die Feuerwehrleute weinten. Sie gingen zum Chef, und der Chef machte das No-More-Mike-and-Ken-Rule, weil wir nicht mehr zusammenarbeiten durften auf der Ambulanz.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Wir sahen zusammen Dr. Who an, am Sonntagabend. Und dann begann es, sich zu beschäftigen. Am Sonntagabend hatten wir eine schwierige Zeit, Dr. Who zu sehen, weil wir Ambulanzmeldungen machen mussten. Also haben wir beide entschieden, wir werden nicht mehr am Sonntagabend arbeiten. Weil wir Dr. Who unverzweifelt sehen wollten.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
So they were mad because we told them that we can't do anymore Sunday nights because we're missing Doctor Who and it's not right. So we made our own Mike and Ken rule for that one.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
It's kind of a hard thing to deal with, but that's how everything worked at that time. One of the ones that stands out to me was, there was a cop and he was wasted and he crashed into a car and he hurt the people in their car real bad. Und normalerweise würde das an Tickets und Anrufe führen. Unsere Polizisten kamen her und sagten uns,
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Don't mention that you smelled alcohol on this guy's breast or anything. Don't put it in your report. Don't mention it to the hospital. We don't want to get this guy in trouble. And I was like, he hurt people. He's wasted and he hurt people. And they were like, don't do it. And you know, you know they did the wrong thing and no one's going to hold them accountable for it.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Wir hatten einen Mann und er war groß. Er war wie ein 400-Pounder. Er war 22, 23 Jahre alt. Er arbeitete in einem Krankenhaus in diesem Bereich. Und wir wussten diesen Mann. Er war ein guter Kerl. Er hat niemanden nie verletzt. Und dann kam der Junge nach Hause. Er wurde ausgeworfen, lag auf seinem Rücken in der Küche und blieb einfach vomiten. Er war also ausgeworfen und starb.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Und das war ein weiteres, wo sie sagten, einfach die Fakten in die Sache legen, keine Aufmerksamkeit ausgeben. Off-Duty-Kopfen waren involviert oder so etwas. Nicht mal das erwähnen. Dein Vater war furchtbar, dass sie diesen Jungen verletzt haben und ihn im Grunde genommen getötet haben. Und es gab keinen Weg, es zu beweisen. Es gab nichts, was wir tun könnten, um es zu beweisen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Sie haben einen Jungen getötet. Sie haben einen jungen Mann getötet. Sie haben sein Leben beendet. Und er hat niemanden getötet. Das ist das Ding. Es ist nicht so, als ob er eine schreckliche Person war oder so etwas. Er war ein netter Junge, der niemanden getötet hat.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ja, Crook County. Ja, da gibt es keinen Zweifel darüber. Es ist ein Zauber von Mördern. Die Regierung ist ein Zauber von Mördern.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Es ist die Brüderlichkeit der Polizisten, weißt du. Und du bist so auf sie abhängig. Sie haben mein Leben ein paar Male geschert, dass ich heute nicht mehr hier sein würde, wenn ich nicht auf der rechten Seite gewesen wäre, weißt du. Denn du willst nicht derjenige sein, der sagt, oh, sie wissen, du arbeitest auf dieser Ambulanz und dann rufst du die Polizei, um dir zu helfen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Und sie gehen langsam, weil das passieren könnte. Ich will nicht derjenige sein, der langsam geht, um ihr Leben zu retten. Es ist wirklich ein schwieriges Ort und es ist eine schwierige Entscheidung zu machen und du musst damit leben. Für manche Leute, die keine Seele oder Bewusstsein haben, ist das einfach. Aber das sind schwierige Entscheidungen zu leben.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ich weiß, dass er früher in Cooke County Gefängnis war, als ich ihn kennengelernt habe, weil er seine Karte auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner auf dem Dresdner Inmate Card, you know, for when he was out on parole after getting out of jail. And I was like, okay.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
So that's one of the things I asked him about. And he gave me very little detail on it. I think he said like two sentences. And then that story was done. Er hat etwas über das Pimpen für das Outfit gesagt. Und er wird das nicht mehr tun. Und das war es. Das war der Ende der Gespräche. Er wollte nichts anderes darüber sagen. Und ich wusste ihn bereits gut genug, um nichts anderes darüber zu fragen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ich habe es tatsächlich im Papier gelesen. You know, when it went down, when they busted the place. But, you know, and then he told me about it and it didn't click in my mind until like a year later. You know, that that was probably the same thing, you know.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
I actually went to their wedding and the reception. I was a little drunk and got in a confrontation with some very Italian people there. Oh boy. And there was a guy with a I remember this guy, he was a smaller guy, you know, and he had a shiny suit. He had a very shiny, silvery suit. And I was laughing about it and I was telling the people at my table how he's a fattagatti.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
That's a word that my sister and I use for real Italian people. We call them fattagattis, you know. What did I do? Weißt du, was das bedeutet?
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ich glaube, es ist nur ein ausgesprochenes Wort. Er ist ein Fadagadi. Das ist das, was wir ihn nennen. Er hat mich gesagt. Und er dachte, dass ich von ihm lustig bin. Also kam er her und kam mit mir konfrontiert. Also war ich aus meiner Schuhe in einem heißen Moment. Und dann kamen seine Freunde zurück. Und dann kamen die Leute, mit denen ich saß, aus ihren Schuhen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Und ich erinnere mich an deinen Vater, der die ganze Sache überbruchte. Ja, weil das fast schmutzig wurde. Und das ist nicht das, was man bei einer Gebetsveranstaltung macht. It happens. It happens more than you would possibly think. I've been on that call a bunch of times where a wedding reception turned into a brawl or a stabbing.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Ich glaube, er wollte nicht, dass seine Gebetsveranstaltung so sein würde. Also kam er her und intervenierte. Ich weiß nicht, ob er dachte, er würde mein Leben retten oder was, aber... Das waren wahrscheinlich ziemlich ernsthafte Leute. Ja, aber ich war jung und stark und gut für den Scheiß in den alten Tagen. Und ich war auch bereit, darin zu kommen.
Crook County
7 | The Devil Won't Leave Me Alone
Mein Name ist Mike und ich war Partner mit deinem Vater in einer privaten Ambulanzfirma und in zwei verschiedenen Feuerwerken, die wir zusammen gearbeitet haben. Wahrscheinlich über die Zeit von 18 Jahren, also war das eine lange Zeit zusammen. Dein Vater war die eine Person, mit der ich mich wirklich komfortabel fühlte.

Hey Dan, Mike in Arlington, Virginia calling. My bold take is that restaurants should not have menus. So instead they just make one or two dishes for whatever meal it is. And then you sit down, and the waiter tells you what you're having. They can even post it online, what they're making that day, so you know not to go if you don't want what they're making.

No, honestly, I referenced Eskimo to support you and the Iceman nickname because Eskimos are associated with ice and the great Northwest and all that stuff. So that's the only reason I did that. But mean no disrespect to any people. I'm a lover, not a hater. That kind of thing. That kind of thing.

Yeah, I'm against it as the unwarranted phenomenon it has become. You know, it's a clown show disguised as sports. It's not baseball. You know, it's family entertainment. I get it. I get it why kids want to see it. It's a circus. It's a carnival. That's all it is. I don't even put it in the category of sports.

I'll tell you what, and I'm not alone, and it wasn't just Caitlin Clark either or Angel Reese, but last year was the first year that that I personally was as interested or more interested in the women's NCAAs than the men's.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Greg Cote's Equine Nostrils (feat. Iliza Shlesinger)
Yeah, and I think the rise in the women's game has been just magnificent in the last few years. I can only speak for myself. There was a time when it was all about the men's tournament for me. I barely paid any attention to the women's tournament. Now I think of them as comparable competitions, every bit as good as each other. So it's go women. It's been great.

Looky here. This is not a great NFL draft for quarterbacks. Cam Ward at number one. Even he is not assured of being a big star. I'm looking at that. Look at here.

David, I want to ask you about monologues on the big screen and on the small screen as well because I was watching White Lotus and there was a great monologue. Even though Goggins got in a couple of times, this was a monologue. And I'm curious, what are some of your favorite monologues you've ever seen on television or in movies? Jaws had a great one. A Few Good Men had a great one. I'm curious.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Malice had a great one. Yeah, I am, God. One of my favorites. It's probably not even the best Alec Baldwin monologue, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: You Bet Your Sweet Bippy
I actually don't think this is a bad spoiler. And I'll tell you why. I was checked out on White Lotus. I had no interest in it. Everyone said that it wasn't off to the greatest start. And then I saw a still on social media of Sam Rockwell in this scene with Walton Goggins. I'm like, I'm in. And I hopped on that moving train.

I have before, and he takes it deeply personal because he designed every aspect of that, and I understand, and I'm not conflating what they ended up doing with the franchise afterwards. It just never was for me. I know Jeffrey Luria fancied himself this big art expert, and he was going for something that just wasn't for me. Art is subjective. My whole thing is pick a color.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: You Bet Your Sweet Bippy
So I think in this instance, a couple of days removed, mentioning that Sam Rockwell has joined the cast of White Lotus is a good thing. It's a reveal, David, though, like that's that they it wasn't announced before the show. It's not. It's not like it's Brad Pitt.

I know he's won an Academy Award, but I think Sam Rockwell can occasionally go to the grocery store and not get bothered is what I'm saying.

The Big Suey: You Bet Your Sweet Bippy
It's fantastic. That is a good movie. It's one of the greatest... Not pitch perfect, the movie... It's delivered by one of the better actors. I think generationally speaking, Sam Rockwell is one of the more talented actors of his time, no?

This was supposed to be a communal thing. I guess I'm on the line of more traditional, and they were really going for something that was really different, and I guess it works for some people.

No, not really. I like Camden Yards, dude. I like Comerica. I like other ballparks. I don't like this one.

The Big Suey: You Bet Your Sweet Bippy
Yeah, I love the location. Look, I think I've been to most of the MLB ballparks. And this one is just not for me. If you like it, I'm not going to hold it against you. I just fancy, you know, 20 other ballparks more than this one. And I guess I'm more of a traditionalist when it comes to ballparks. I've never had a good time in that place.

And famously, Dan, you went at Major League Baseball for not doing their due diligence and making sure that this was not something that the ownership group overextended itself. And part of the business plan was that they were going to cut because they did overextend themselves. I don't want to pick at old wounds anymore. I want to talk to you as a former team president, though.

I guess he's okay now, so we can kind of laugh at it, but Tracy Morgan vomited courtside at Madison Square Garden, which will probably be a meme forevermore, as well as his photo of him recuperating. But how from a team ops perspective, Tracy Morgan throwing up courtside is probably treated differently than a regular Joe Schmo is such that they are sitting courtside would be treated.

How do you think those conversations go? How would they have gone if something similar were to happen in your line of work?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: You Bet Your Sweet Bippy
It's just unnecessary. It actually seems pretty necessary given the times. But I'm wondering if you've ever had a similar situation with a VIP. It doesn't necessarily have to be someone throwing up, but have you ever had an issue, health-related or some other type of issue around a VIP that was in one of your ballparks?

At just 96 calories and 3.2 grams per 12 ounces, Miller time is always a good time. The original light beer since 1975 and still the very best one. Miller Lite. Great taste. 96 calories.

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here?

Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
I don't feel like a jilted ex-lover. I don't. I feel like it's like the Tom Brady quote about his marriage. They put on a joint statement, our marriage did not fail. It was a successful marriage. I think I'm pretty confident unless he has an Andre Iguodala type finals that's paired up with a Steph Curry type finals where he wins an MVP in an NBA finals.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
He's going to be remembered as a member of the Miami Heat. When people close their eyes and they think of Jimmy Butler, the image that they're probably going to get is him bent over a scorer's table saying, in the bubble in a Miami Heat uniform. He went to two finals down here. It was a great time. He proved that he can be the best player on the team that went to multiple finals.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
And I'm very secure in it, and I'm actively rooting for him to win that championship so that can't be held against his brilliant career.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
Yeah, he's going to be great, I think, for them during this window, and then maybe next season it won't be as great, and then it'll just keep declining. I think he's got one more run in him, and I'm hopeful to see that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
I think if they have a good run and he's really good in the postseason, then even though it's part of the narrative down here locally, people will look back on his time, especially if he becomes an NBA champion, and his time in a Heat uniform will be remembered for the Miami Heat specifically. failing him, and that'll become the narrative.

not pictured Commissioner Gordon. Dan, first and foremost, let me say I'm proud of you and the growth that you've made over the last week on journalistic responsibility. That's huge. I'm glad that you corrected Sam on saying that. That wasn't fair to label Draymond Green as mentally ill. That is great work out of you. And also, Sam, I'm pretty sure you'd love Draymond.

if he were a New York Knick. There's so many of those guys. There's one in Brad Marchand and Matthew Kachuk also on the Florida Panthers that you hate them if they're not on your team. You love them if they're on yours.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
I mean, Jimmy's a different type of player. He brings more to the table offensively. But Draymond, he has his role offensively. I get what you're saying. And look, it's working now. We'll see what happens in the playoffs.

What's the longest Jimmy Butler has ever been paired on a team with someone that is obviously greater than him? the flash that D. Wade had, no pun intended, in Chicago.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
He gravitated towards Wade, and it was the vets against the young guys, but he was still younger in his career, and everybody knew that Dwayne Wade was historically the greater player then. Then in Philadelphia, you can argue that Embiid was the better player on that team, but that was a short-term deal. So Kind of blessed in his career.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

He rubs people the wrong way, but he also has the benefit of being able to do that while he is very clearly the alpha of the team.

That's Perk being Perk. Perk goes at people like that all the time, and I don't actually think they have to work together. It seems like they're licensing TNT's coverage, right? So they get to operate in their silo. They don't actually ever have to interface with ESPN's NBA team, which history tells us will change again.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
It's cute for Perkins to get involved in there, and I understand where he's coming from and defending himself, but I'm old enough to remember NBA finals that John Barry was a key analyst for it. You know, like Jalen, Antonio Davis, they come and go. And, you know, it's very transient over there. And if they actually have an anchor in TNT's coverage, I would...

Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
Local governments misappropriate funds all the time. It's one thing to say flatly that that money was used for a waste when you have no idea what that money would have gone to. You can have an idea, but you also have less say in the matter when this is something that was actually on the ballot.

I'm saying that stadium referendums are one of the few times that you can actually vote on these things and you can actually see whether or not and decide whether or not this is a good allocation when a lot of times they do stuff with autonomy or just commissioners do it. My big issue was they got the stadium, they cried poor, and then they sold the team that they spent a lot of money for.

Right then and there. They made the Blue Jays trade, which I know in retrospect they ended up winning, but we don't need to litigate all this stuff.

PK, all of American hockey Twitter is trying to give Jake Sanderson food poisoning here in the next couple hours so Quinn Hughes can play in this game.

Absolutely, because of the internet. There's a social media comedian named Mark Phillips, Supreme Dreams, who points this out is that it's hard to do sketch comedy shows today because there are so many at home comedians and sketch artists that when something happens, almost immediately you see a sketch on it.

It should be Saturday Night Taped. And that was the evolution that they missed on. Favorite SNL sketch over the last 20 years? was the other Cavaliers that actually did make it into the show. You should look this sketch up. It's when LeBron was at his height in Cleveland, 2018, and they did like an intro to the other Cavs you never hear about.

Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
That's where I think some of their strengths are is you just identified shows that didn't do too many. They're sketch comedy shows, but they didn't necessarily do topical. This is because they were taped so far before. And that's where SNL is really struggling. Yeah, I get it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
To be topical and vibrant with the way that SNL is known for, especially in the opening sketch, I can see where that's more difficult. But where they've really struggled, where they've lagged behind, are these benchmark characters that would spawn off movies. So they're just kind of lacking in that department right now.

It's a time for optimism. I like... gathering with folks. I typically don't. We spend a lot of time with one another here and we don't spend a lot of time away from the office together.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
You said care deeply, and certainly in pockets, people care deeply, but I'm not one of those Panther fans that gets super defensive. We're building. There are plenty of reasons why this was a struggling hockey market, mostly on ownership after they moved into the new building. This is the first sustained run of excellence from this franchise. ever.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
They've had outliers, a little flash in the pans, won a cup appearance in 1996, didn't do much with that momentum, moved to a new place. They had one year where they win the Atlantic and then they kind of disappear and fall off. So this team with its young core.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
I think, look, This franchise, had it built on the momentum of 96, we'd probably see something a little bit closer to Tampa, which is just one of the best hockey towns in the country. But that's not our story. And people want to make fun of the parade while it's raining. I look at that and it warms my heart because of where this franchise was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
We are so far beyond where we were, and we're still building. And I think another Cup run will just keep building on that success. And Roy, I'm curious your opinion, not just because you're wearing a Panthers jersey and you love hockey and you have the hockey show, but you've been there through the lean years. And this team...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
with its stars because it's been a pretty transient franchise it's not often that you have guys stick through several years guys like barkov who've been here who've grown into men who's he's still a young man but he's been here over a decade a guy that wants the sardom that wants a platform wants to grow the game like matthew kachuk these guys are building a connection with this town in ways that hockey teams only did in 1996 for a fleeting moment
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

So to be able to have a drink and lighten the mood and listen to some music, exchange some gifts, it's a great time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
It's a weird way to judge this. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Maybe even the Dolphins? No, that's never going to happen. Look, it's still difficult to walk into a sports bar in at least Miami-Dade County and find the TV on a Panther game. It's becoming more commonplace. You don't have to ask for it as much. I occasionally go into sports bars and they have the sound on for huge games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
I think it's building and a little bit of self-awareness. There's no way hockey ever matches the NFL in this town. But it did in Tampa, and they built on success over there. So it's not impossible in this state, but just as a market demographically, Tampa is much different than the Tri-County area down here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
That's a bit of a pipe dream, but it certainly challenged the Miami Heat in terms of local interest.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
that was happening the panthers had been eliminated from their bubble but i would say that yeah like dating back to three years ago the panthers if they were on at the same time the panthers would would get the sound we're going on an olympiad now where the panthers have usurped the the miami heat in in my opinion and the miami heat have had two two well two real deep runs uh two finals appearances uh in that time but the panthers have also had two finals appearances i
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
I just love the team. I love the connection with it. I love the sport. I think if you compare them in direct comparison with one another, they're going in opposite directions, the Miami Heat and the Florida Panthers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
No doubt. When he blocked Jason Tatum at the rim, that was Miami versus Boston. And Florida was out of the NHL playoffs in their bubble. No doubt. I was more of a Heat guy then, I guess. But in the years that followed, keep in mind, that was a while ago. I've become a Panther guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
Yeah, I don't think they've wrestled the 10 away. I still think hockey down here, in Miami-Dade County especially, it still has a way to go to even catch this fledgling Miami Heat incarnation across the street. It's still got a way to go, but I'm super fine with that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
I'm super cool with this really exciting time down here locally where you get to build on something and you bring more and more people to the tent. More and more people get introduced to the sport. There is nothing like
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
playoff hockey and i think optically too you see the ratings for the nba they're down the nba has a problem my chief problem with the nba i'll wear it is that i don't like this miami heat team i don't they're not interesting to me i'm sick of it i don't want to watch them anymore
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
In Mike's defense, he has been telling me this for years. Like,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
That's a fine. He has a checklist.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
I mean, there is a cultural disconnect between, you know, Hispanic Miami Dade and hockey. It's just not, you know, they're more geared to baseball and football and even basketball down here. Hockey, they've never had a reason to care, and thankfully this franchise is giving them a reason to care. It's just, you know, they are most certainly Broward's team, and they lean into that footprint.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
Hopefully one day they can revitalize an area because their stadium's kind of out there near the Everglades a little bit, but it's not impossible. Look, Look, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have been a really successful franchise. They have two Super Bowls in the last 25 years. They're often in the playoffs. If you go to Tampa, the flags hanging outside people's homes are blue and white.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
That is a hockey town.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
Well, one of the things that I think will be huge for their growth, because I'm sure they have all sorts of meetings and they bust open the books and they realize we have so much room for growth in Miami-Dade County. How do we get there? The reports are accurate. There is a winter classic coming to South Florida, coming to Lone Depot Park. next season. That potentially might pit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
A lot of the fans out there might suggest it's going to be Florida against one of its main rivals. It'd be great if it were the Tampa Bay Lightning because you get to draw from that market too. That is a huge moment in time if this Panther organization can keep that momentum going and it crescendos with this huge event down the street over there at Marlins Park.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
That'd be really cool because that's the first time hockey has come to Miami-Dade County since they left.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
But people still watch the sport. They're not checking out on the Dolphins. You listen to local sports talk radio. People are irate because they care. Why? Because the product is really good. So I do think that there is a small faction of hockey fans out here that will support the team through thick and thin, like I have, like Chris has, like Roy has. Like I have. Like you have.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
But people need to be clued into the fact that this sport is just terrific to watch. They need to be brought into the tent. They need to go into a bar where the sound is on and people are locked in and you're living and dying as a puck crosses a blue line every half second it feels like and your season is hanging on the edge of a blade. It's incredible. There's nothing like it. It's infectious.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
But I do love the location. It would be a location that I'd probably be at tonight regardless because there's a huge Panther game on, and this is my favorite bar to watch hockey. The Wilds? Kaprizov.

I think his entire public persona has been built on him knowing better than other people. So I'm not going to try to buck my head against that, but we are a legion when it's not just me that thinks I know better than Aaron Rodgers on certain things. And he responds in kind.

Listen, boys, we got to talk about Jägermeister, a go-to guy at home, at the bar, or maybe even out at the rink. A drink so ice cold, it deserves its own video tribute at every sports bar across North America. No trash talk, no running its mouth. We love the confidence on them. Jägermeister sent us an ad to read on the show, but they're so confident they said, don't do any of that normal ad stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
Tell the listeners two things. Jägermeister is great, but everyone's been drinking it wrong. Damn, that's cold. Well, how should we be drinking it? They're so glad you asked. Ice cold at zero degrees Fahrenheit, to be exact. Ice cold shots of Jagermeister. That's it. That's all they want to tell you. So wherever you are, if you're hanging out with friends or at the bar, call the shots.

I don't doubt that. I know that. He loves that. He does. He very clearly does love it, and it's very clearly important to him. That's never been my... My whole thing is, has the value... He has a value to it, he's assigned it, and that's what's most important, clearly. I'm saying, has it been... I'm just positing. Has it been a net negative for Aaron Rodgers? And if I were to pick one...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
I'd say, yeah, it's been a bad negative for him.

They did force him to go on and apologize. And Aaron did what he, I mean, he may say, I clarified. I didn't really apologize. And he did, like, if you were offended. But, like, they did make that happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
You say whatever he wanted. Did he take any other shots at Jimmy Kimmel? Did he take any other shots at ESPN personalities? He was subtweeting maybe SportsCenter anchors, but I would say that that put a governor in place. It would. And maybe he wanted to take some more shots, and he couldn't, because it was probably a world-class producer that got in everybody's ear that said, we can't do that.

Rodgers. And it didn't go anywhere. It was not like he got off to a bad start, unfortunate start, hurt his Achilles. Then he only got a year older, got off to a real bad start at the part of the season where he couldn't. And yeah, maybe he made the season look better by spamming his best friend footballs towards the end, who may not even want to be there either. It was a disaster on all accounts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
And what the franchise was asking is like, all right, it's not working out the way that we wanted. Can you at least give us a break on the PR front? Now, it's Aaron Rodgers' prerogative. I don't like that that ask came in, but I understand why it came in. It's certainly part of the equation when you're dealing with Aaron Rodgers is, is this guy worth this headache?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
And his play very clearly in his time in that uniform was not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
Don't you think it's been a worthwhile investment? For everybody. For Pat and for Aaron. That breaks the model for ESPN. ESPN, prior to Pat being on board, didn't pay guests as far as I knew. Certain things were worked out in the contracts if a sponsor came on board. But a flat fee for that, that's a whole new business model. And it certainly worked out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
It worked out for everybody outside of Aaron, maybe. No, it worked for Aaron.

yeah he's getting paid a million dollars but don't you think like the public perception the endorsements don't you think all that stuff oh but you're just doing it money you're just doing it money he doesn't need money at this point that's not about like I'm saying the million dollars because it's very charitable like the money could help him like do some good work but
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
Can I ask you guys a question? Because I feel a certain way about it, but I'm genuinely curious. I don't know the answer. I assume we're working at the time that Aaron usually does his hits. So we consume Aaron's hits by social media clips and the aggregation. By the tail end of last season, how much value was there in having the starting quarterback of the New York Jets?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
And I understand he's a Hall of Famer, one of the greatest quarterbacks we've ever seen personally, one of my favorite quarterbacks. I do find him interesting. I do. I read an entire book with my ears about the man. But how much value does that have, really? For whom? For anybody. I'm saying for Aaron. This season's embarrassing. I kind of felt bad for him towards the end of that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
We're still going to trot him out?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
I was just curious. I wasn't opining. I think there's value there. I just read a book.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
But is that going to be the only value? To him. Okay, but to the audience, who's going to keep consuming? I don't know what's happened to the numbers if people's interest waned on it. Let's say he's out of the league entirely. Let's say he chooses to retire. Does he go back and the whole thing is a dude taking exception to a media that is not actually talking?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
Let me be clear. I think it's been great for ESPN when he's a newsmaker. That's cool. I think it's been great for Pat McAfee. I don't think it's been good for Aaron Rodgers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
Also, this is something that Russini said. And even if Aaron Rodgers agreed, the New York Jets might have still settled on we're getting away from this guy. I actually think that this has been amplified in the social space because it's awfully convenient. Well, it wasn't my play. It was because I was going on Pat. That had to be it. No. No, it was your play and that. And that was a piece of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
And they were looking at the totality of the picture.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mike Ryan's Case For Top 5 Executive Producer's Of All-Time
Yes, I'm fascinated, too. It's like what happened here now is like my fascination. Like what where did this go sideways? Part of it is we got to know him better as this change in his life happened. where his relationship with his family broke down a little bit, and he started showing us more of himself. But I think it's pretty irrefutable that this hasn't been good for Aaron Rodgers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I mean, just look at the sponsorship dollars. All his legacy sponsors kind of moved on for the most part.

He has no use for our journalism. Tony does a great job with the MMA Hangout. A great job. It does really well. We love the UFC. And as uncomfortable as it is, even though a bunch of people who didn't want Colin Kaepernick kneeling because they didn't want politics and sports, and yet I see an entire card get hijacked by a victory party by Donald Trump and his cronies, I still watch the UFC.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
I think they have a terrific product. I would like for them to practice what they preached several years ago in keeping the politics somewhat out of it. I know some of that stuff is unavoidable. But I am just a little shocked that when you buck back against it, you either limit media availability like they have with us, or you just straight up call them the P-word.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

There's a lot of tough talk from this guy and he always does that whiny voice. Like, look, I told you, in as many voices as I can muster, not a fan of all that. You do it, I watch anyways, we move on. I use my pulpit to say how I feel. You take great offense and try to limit my ability to do that. That doesn't actually feel like free speech. Not one bit.

Er hat gesagt, es war nicht der wachsende Mob, der... ... am stärksten ist, wenn es um diesen Mann geht. Dana White sagte selbst, dass er sich um diesen Mann kümmert, weil er so kämpft. Und jetzt, dass wir gesehen haben, was in Adesanya passiert ist, gab es vielleicht ein bisschen Fuhlsgold, wenn es um Sean Strickland ging. DDP hat ihn dominiert und ihn komplett kontrolliert.

Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Und jetzt nicht Diamond Dallas Page. But it seems as though that arrow is pointing way, way down for Sean Strickland. That's fine, there's always going to be another Sean Strickland. There might be another Bryce Mitchell for all I know. And that's cool. I've grown accustomed to this. It's not cool, but it is what it is with that sport.

Es ist nicht cool, Mike. All of these things being laundered is not cool. It's not cool and you should have the right to have a rebuttal and we should have a civil discussion on this.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
It's the only time that he says, say whatever you want about me. And he still doesn't push back on that stuff. It's his fighters, it's the transphobia, it's the homophobia, it's the racism, it's the antisemitism that I wish you were stronger against. Now, he did come out in opposition of Mitchells comments. But he didn't actually take a punitive measure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Because look, he didn't take a punitive measure for himself, really. He survived his scandal. Although, apples and oranges, what we're talking about. If the discourse is now in a place because you helped bring it there, then you should at least, I'm not even asking for 50-50 split here, dude. I am not. I'm asking for 90-10.

Für das, was Mitchell gemacht hat... Ich denke, du schlägst ihn ab. Denn das, was Mitchell gemacht hat, war zu diskutieren. Nun, er hat einiges zurückgebracht. Einige Leute waren nicht in Ordnung mit seiner Entschuldigung. Aber du musst zumindest den Leuten beweisen, dass es eine Art pünktliche Maßnahme gibt. Hat er die Möglichkeit, Kämpfer zu finden? Das ist etwas, was du tun kannst.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Nicht nur keine pünktliche Maßnahme. Mitchell wird größer werden. Mitchell's star is rising. Many people are hearing his name for the very first time. It appears as though Dana White is going to leverage this ascension somewhat on the next card. Just the same way he's done so with all these other inflammatory fighters. We get that. It's the fight game. Cool.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
But if I have something to say about it and you want to in turn limit my access, I think you're soft.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Yeah, there is a value in wanting, alright, I hate what that person represents, I hate what they say. Now, they have not tried to appeal to me in any sort of way. The whole business model of come watch this guy get his ass kicked because he offends you, he offends you, kind of goes out the door when you welcome what you welcome into your events. I don't actually feel welcome at the UFC.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
I'm quite literally not welcome at the UFC. So what I would like is just some kind of leeway here and not just all this BS tough talk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Yeah, and it should be a little scary. It's some of the things that were invoked there and some of the things that are being invoked now in terms of transphobia and all that. And look, this is reaping what you sow. Dana White, certainly. wenn er andere Leute, andere Kämpfer, die inflammatory Dinge sagen, oder off-the-court Angelegenheiten haben und so weiter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Er denkt wahrscheinlich nicht, dass das die nächste Phase und Evolution ist. Aber es ist so, weil du dein Niveau der Toleranz gezeigt hast. Und zum Teufel, einige Leute werden für ihr inflammatoryes Verhalten in der UFC bezahlt. Nun, ich meine...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Und, schau, ich weiß, dass es viel über Echo Chambers gesprochen wird, aber er hat ganz literally ein Echo Chamber gebaut, mit dem er die Sport coveren kann.

Ich liebe den Sport. Ich liebe die UFC. Wenn es zurück in die Stadt kommt, kann ich an die Karte gehen. Ich weiß, was ich unterstütze. Ich bin mir damit nicht ganz zufrieden, aber ich habe meine Überzeugungen. Look, if they find out I'm actually paying for a ticket, they're like, cool, fine, free country, I assume. But if I want to go as a member of the media, I won't be allowed.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
I don't feel uncomfortable at these events. I know that the current president went to my event and I exercised my right, as did many, to cheer him. I booed and that's a free country and I love that I was afforded that as a paying ticket holder. I would like to voice opposition to certain things that I don't like and voice my displeasure as someone that is an invited guest of media.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Well, but it feels more so. Have you explained that the menu options are a little bit more limited and there's more crowds, that if you just either wait or do it ahead of time, that can be your Valentine's Day, sweetie. And we can all enjoy it much more. Have you done that? Have you tried having that? Have you tried a guy's trip? No. We're going to Canada. Sorry, Four Nations just comes once.

Yeah, Valentine's Day is just a day on a calendar. Valentine's Day is something that I never celebrate on Valentine's Day. If you do so, you're doing it wrong. Sorry, Dan. I'm very resolute in this opinion. You get the worst service, you get the worst menu items, you get packed crowds. You do it on either the week after or the week before. You have a much better experience and you celebrate it on.

I think the UFC, the Rogan-Culture, all of that was certainly spearheading the societal shift that is very clearly happening. We see big tech companies bend the knee when it comes to some of these things. Everybody in power has just collectively decided what we were doing a few years ago, where we were actually listening to people that we've offended or want to be inclusive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
We're going to walk all that stuff back. Und das ist gut. Schau, die UFC hat in den vergangenen Jahren und Inkarnationen sogar Feuerwehrleute für die Dinge, die sie gesagt haben, verabschiedet. Und Dana White ist eigentlich ziemlich eloquent gewesen, als es zu Transphobien in seinem Sport gab. Aber als Teil dieses Schiffs, das er auf der Vorderseite hatte, ist er davon weggegangen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Du hattest einen MMA-Fighter, der sich als Nazi-Sympathizer befand, und das am wenigsten bei Bryce Mitchell. Und Dana White war gut, diese Kommentare zu kritisieren. Er war sehr stürmisch gegen sie in der Opposition, aber er hat keine punitive Maßnahme gegen Bryce Mitchell genommen. Wir haben vorhin über Sean Strickland gesprochen. Ich bin kein Fan. Ich denke, es ist repulsiv und all das andere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Aber Dana White ist Champion. Sean Stricklands Fähigkeit, diese Dinge zu sagen, wie er es mit Bryce Mitchell gemacht hat. Das ist sehr viel wie ein Freisprecher-Absolutist, wie es aussehen würde. Aber ich bin ein bisschen verwirrt bei der Mixed Messaging. Denn Dana White hat all verschiedene Opinionen, wenn Leute über ihn reden.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Es ist fast so, als ob alle anderen in der UFC den Recht zur freien Sprache verwenden, aber wenn du es gegen Dann hat er ein Problem damit. Also, ich denke, mit diesem UFC-Fight in Australien, hat Sean Strickland das erste Blut gedroht. Er ist sehr kombinierend in diesen Pressekonferenzen. Das und seine Kämpfe haben ihn zu einem Headliner erweitert.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Aber Tony, er musste nach Australien und ihren mehr progressiven Regeln gehen. Und Australien kam nicht wirklich gegen ihn. Sie haben ihn einfach zurückgeführt.

Donald Trumps Resurgence back in one of the great comeback stories in American politics. Donald Trump was steadfast in making sure it was a normal scene to see Donald Trump amongst the people after even Coca-Cola came out against him on January 6th. But what I am at a loss for is how sensitive, because the right had a word for this, whenever the left was offended by something easily.

The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
We know how this works. When you strip away Title IX protections, the ruling class gets to define what is actually merit-based, which is awfully convenient when they're the ones making the investments. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
The Title IX protections. The Title IX protections, which means.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
Yeah, which means like athletes, women athletes inside the NCAA, their sports, if you lump their sports against some of the bigger men's sports, the women's sports are generally classified more as non-revenue. And it allows schools to just paint with that broad brush and realize we don't actually have to make a sizable investment in this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
Allow me to help you, though. given like you cited caitlyn clark this is not that if we want to get into false equivalencies like and every sport for the most part found itself where many non-revenue women's sports find itself right now which is how we generate an audience even american football had to start from a base level of zero hell we have something worldwide that is the biggest sport
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
Proof of concept. The biggest thing in sports entertainment is soccer. And we've spent three decades trying to invest in it to make it a revenue generator in this country. And we can in college athletics. And we are certainly not in the black when it comes to MLS. Things take time.

The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
David, I have a sports business question for you. The Department of Education has officially rescinded NIL-related Title IX guidance, basically making it okay for NIL to have a rev share that is not an equitable split. This is certainly going to get challenged in court, but this is massive news.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
Basically, the schools that don't really have much interest in having to invest in non-revenue sports now have the okay from the Department of Education to not. Your thoughts? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
Jeremy and I have thoughts on this. It's a tough look. I think women's basketball, especially in the collegiate game, is showing you when you finally actually put resources behind this, the sport can grow and be a revenue sport for you as well. I think that in the Big 12, there's good softball stories, women's gymnastics. has been huge for NIL and athletes that have benefited from that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: David Samson's Case For The Marlins Hall of Fame
It's like any business. You also need seed money to invest to actually see how this grows. And in this golden age of sports media rights, I don't think we should be pulling back. Also, we're taking a step back decades in terms of progress when it finally felt like we were making real inroads on making these non-revenue sports actually revenue generators.

Jalen Hurts had a produced Super Bowl commercial by Jordan Brand in that. He is the face of a football brand. His airness handpicked him. He's in Disney World.

He came in, there were some critics saying that this guy's not the most spectacular guy on his own offense, and it's by a wide gulf. He was the best player on that offense in that game.

I remember looking at it a couple months ago and being surprised at how good Westbrook was playing for them. Now the numbers have probably dipped a little bit, but he's having a better year than he had last year for them. I think you're right to seize on that, regardless of him improving year over year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's The Price Of Being An Actor
I know they won with this core, but you have what might be the most unstoppable offensive force in the history of the game. To surround him with that same level of talent and slowly pick away pieces that made a difference on a championship team, that's not really a recipe for a GM keeping his job, especially when you've already established what the new standard is for a franchise.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's The Price Of Being An Actor
I totally get the GM. The head coach, I'm shocked. I can understand firing Malone if they disappoint in the postseason, but I guess the thinking is from Stan Kroenke on down, we have What I just said, the most dominant offensive force in the NBA. We cannot waste another year of this window. We are not going to get to the top of the mountain with this head coach.

I would say in Europe, in soccer, both on the international and club level, there are plenty of examples of a management change right before an elimination stretch in a competition or a pivotal point in the season where the team goes on to go on a run.

Well, the counting stats, especially defensively, are pretty damning. And they've shown, that core has shown, they can dial it up. And they've never been as bad as 20th in defensive efficiency. So that may play to something that Woody Page said on Around the Horn.

I think the NBA has changed quite a bit, though, since you had that conversation with Eric Spolstra.

At the very highest level, they won a championship with him issuing that message, going about things a certain way.

Kevin O'Connor... I'm sorry, but what they told me was Michael Malone tends to ride his team really, really hard. And when the results aren't there, you don't have the success. We've seen this in the NFL where... the authoritarian type of head coach, his act wears thin after a little bit.

GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
They don't. Well, this is like the... In public, he has to be happy for him. Of course. And then the second the camera's off, cursing everything there is about him. Stanford Steve, how does he know? How does he know? I'm excited. I really hope he doesn't shoot down my rushing prop bet thing. I've been riding it most of the season with Mahomes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
I mean, I have a lot of bad football bets. Like, I always see, like, these parlays that have, like, multiple touchdowns from both teams. And it's like, wait, so you expect, like, seven touchdowns to be scored in this game? Like, a lot of people do that. Right. And it's like, oh, well, I have this kicker for over one and a half. And then these three guys on the same team scores a touchdown.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
And it's like, how many points do you think they're going to get? And you're like, you know. And then you have to get this many guys in order, like, you know. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Chris, speaking of the running game, the last few Super Bowls, I've really cashed in on quarterback rushing overs. And right now, the one I see is Patrick Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes, 29 and a half. He had 40 something yards against the bill. So if we were in a DraftKings state and we were doing this, I was wondering what how you would feel about 29 and a half for Patrick Mahomes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
I got those bets in before.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
You didn't sound bitter at all, Bear. Why do you think he remembers it? Does he remember it if he doesn't have that number?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
It just takes that one time. That one time ruins it forever.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

He's sick before he gets to Super Bowl site. Oh, that does not bode well at all. I know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
I can see it all over him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Go ahead. Bear, now that you mentioned casinos, I'm a big casino guy, especially roulette. And when I was in Vegas last year, I had an idea that I'm going to set up pool all my per diem money from metal arc here. And I'm just going to put it on a color on the roulette table. I didn't get a chance to do it last year. Because I figure if I lose the money, I just pay for my own meals all week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
I love it. Or I can double my cash, right? So if you were hypothetically going to be a casino and you're betting a color, red or black, what does the bear put the money on?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
I don't want to think about it. I want to put it all on one thing for the week. I either double my money or I pay for my meals. That's it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
And you know what? There's not like four places to go that are packed all the time. Yes. There's tons of little dives, bigger restaurants. Right. You can always find a place to go get a beer or go get some food.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
No, you're giving me PTSD because for my birthday, I went down to the casino and I had to split eights three times. So I kept splitting and then I had three 18s and the dealer had, I think she was showing a seven and then she ends up, I'm like, you know, you get a 10, it's over. She has a two and then a 10. That was at 19. I lost all three hands. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
We're not talking about it yet. It's not a fully fleshed out idea, man. I'll cut it out.

Redfish po' boy. Yes. And jambalaya.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
And followed that up, washed that down with three beignets. Yes. Oh, wow. Yeah. Really? Yeah. How do you feel? That was yesterday. I feel pretty good. Today, I'll hurt myself a little bit later. I'm going to go get a workout in, though, I think. At least I'm going to try. But, yeah, I'm one of those, I will eat the local food.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!

It was home of the blackened redfish po' boy. Really? And I ordered it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
And he believed them. And I did. I text Mike, and I said, Mike, I fell into the trap. Right. I'm in the home of the XXXX. Right. One of the many homes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Yeah, I ordered it. She walked back and said, another sucker out here. Yeah, we got it. It's skunk with scales put on the top. Give him the perch. Right. Oh, yeah, we poured this out of the gulf this morning. Get a load of this nerd.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
And that's what I did. I was just wandering. I was just looking at names of places, and I'll be damned if it didn't say home of, and it lured me in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Too far apart. Too far apart. Here's my thing. If you have to get in a car, I'm done.

Vegas, I could walk everywhere. Right. Especially to the stadium. Yes. And here I can walk everywhere. Right. To me, again, it's what is best for me. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Why would you want this? People say they don't want it, yet the viewership will be just as high. Well, I know that. Listen, I actually like Philly in the game because of Saquon. I think they'll just hammer him. Keeps Patrick off the field. As long as Philly's not down two scores with five minutes to go, they better run the hell out of Saquon behind that whole line.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Congratulations. As soon as both games were over, I picked Philly. It's hard not to pick Philadelphia.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
And yet there's Kansas City.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Thanks a lot. Thank you so much, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
If I'm not playing for Philly anymore, I'm rooting for my brother.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
I think having worked the last couple, I've kind of taken that off. I was able to be on the sideline and work them. I did enjoy that. Right. So, yeah, I think I'm, listen, I've been out of the league since 94. I know. I better be over it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
That will be the take. It's a good strategy. Thank you. It worked for everybody against Tom Brady that ever tried to beat Tom Brady. And then get pressure with four.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Got it. Wait, how does that make any sense?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Well, you would think that The game plan for the Chiefs also would be like make Jalen Hurts throw because that's the worst part of the offense, right? Yes. Of course it is. The part that's not as good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Welcome to Radio Row!
Spags. Find disgruntled A.J. Brown and throw it to him a million times and hopefully that works out.

How do you feel about Sedano? Because he was down here when he was here. He's a snake for doing that. Oh, a snake for doing that. But I want to ask you a little bit deeper. Because down here, he was Mr. Miami Heat. Now he's over L.A. Hollywood Sedano. He's a big Laker guy.

He had a medical situation, but he left town, betrayed this team, and then all of a sudden, all of a sudden, he comes crawling back when he realizes easy championship.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Heat Stroke
Just asking. It's done great. He has a school named after him, all the charitable work, all that. But, I mean, he kind of betrayed this city. It's all some groove. And he comes crawling back, and all of a sudden we forget about his actions.

Yeah, he's a Ranger now. Skip went over there. I'm not going to say Skip stole him, but Skip went over there. He's a consultant in Texas, and all of a sudden, Berger's in Texas.

I think a better way of the game is, Jeremy, name the Marlins lineup and we stop you when you made someone up.

Those were all real people. Eric Dragoman?

Yeah, Otto Lopez. Starting second baseman. Otto Lopez is going to win a gold glove. He is not.

What do you think, hypothetically, hard times, Zaslow Manor, what do you think you could get for those rings?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Heat Stroke
Okay, let's say, hypothetically, you have to sell something. And in this weird world, it's like a Zaslo fan that just won Zaslo memorabilia. And it is either one of your rings or your children's birth certificates.

You can. You bought the first one. You can just buy another one.

Well, I asked a pretty bad hypothetical earlier. Yeah, you did. Okay, so go ahead and do that then, Billy. Well, no, we can get to that later. We're talking about the heat now. I'm just saying.

Why is he wearing sunglasses? The sun is rising behind him and there's a building in the way. He's standing in shadows.

Local Hour: Heat Stroke
Chicago's a fun team. Listen, guys, just a couple of years ago, people were saying that he should lose a play-in game so that they could increase their shot at getting the number one pick or winning the lottery. And what happened?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Heat Stroke
The Heat went on a magical run because of culture and Jimmy Butler, and they made it all the way to the NBA Finals in a Hollywood-type story that just didn't have that ending that we needed. But once you win and you get in, anything can happen. I think this Heat team can go on a run.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I can see we're starting with 12 months and I'm looking at my timeline and life. I don't know what's going on here.

Well, explain Tommy Tyke to me, then, because he doesn't have a gray hair on his head. Well... Maybe there's some performance enhancement going on.

Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

Howdy folks. It's Mike Ryan. I talk to you about Miller time all the time, but we're in the winter time right now.

Because when there's a brisk chill in the air, it just makes everything right.

I'm glad we're waiting 40 years to get around to it.

Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
I'd actually like to see that.

That would be a nice little joke to play on the surgeons. They'd be like, whoa. They'd appreciate that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
It's crazy, though, that his organs can pop out of that. Like if he sneezes too hard one day, it just outcomes. It's a lot of coughing.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
Not ready to say goodbye. But if I were to say goodbye, I'd like to paint a funny little face on it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
I like to think at a real eulogy, Dan will also give a Netflix recommendation. Yeah, I know. And chicken nuggets. And put it on the pole. Chicken tendies on a gas station. That's what I will be doing at his funeral.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

R.I.P. Two googly eyes above that. Some lipstick beneath it. A unibrow. Nice little surprise for the surgeon. I can't hear you anymore.

Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
Hey, you should see the stuff that Furman's saying on his message board right now. It's sending me. It's sending me. Okay, so he's going to be... He's accusing that the scoop came from a booster, i.e. me. No, Peter Ruiz did some great reporting on this for weeks, and he's saying that it was amateur to leak this out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
As opposed to what actually happened, which was following every journalistic protocol in the book. What's amateur is you not apologizing for saying a report is inaccurate when it was 100% accurate.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
Well, I also wasn't the person that was reporting this. I did help with the confirmation, but no. In terms of what Gary is referring to, the university and Jay Lucas all got a heads up that this was coming out. We were aware of the sensitivities, and we were also aware that a slapdick was going to report it. Confirming.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
That's exactly what we needed. That's a good job. That's why he's head of scouting for the Cyclones. And that's...

Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
I get sent with that coward sending a message boards like he's a teenager and he's still with like taking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
I'm not attacking Gary Furman. I'm just responding to a bunch of attacks that I think are unfounded. He's the one that went at my company's credibility when this was well reported by one of our employees and Peter Ruiz. Sound reporting. He was on Jay Lucas's name for weeks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Justin Tucker Allegations
If he's upset that he came out there and put his reputation on the line by saying he was inaccurate and then immediately got embarrassed, I can understand that, but capitulate. I'm not out there embarrassing you. Greg Cody did that. Greg Cody did do that.

Headed out to the ice. I like the way that the Washington Capitals have bounced after this Four Nations break. Alexander Ovechkin with a hattie in his last game. Bounce back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
No, I liked how they bounced on that thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
Yeah. Calgary Flames coming over from Canada. It's a road trip. And honestly, the Capitals are just playing really good hockey. I'm a fan of them. They're probably going to get cursed by the President's Cup curse. It's looking that way. But I like them tonight. Not a Trump curse. The President's Cup. It's a thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Ron, the largest shark ever tagged is now off the coast of Florida. Do you care to revisit what you have said about sharks, showering them with praise when they are actually death machines?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
No, but that's convenient because you don't know what lies beneath the surface. Like, for example, in Australia, they have an abnormal amount of drownings.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
And criminals. It seems as though they're kind of like trying to skirt the law a little bit, which does not play well into the reputation. But these drownings, how do you think that ends?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
Ron, if you're in chest-high water off the coast of North Florida, And I say, Ron, the largest great white shark ever tagged is just a couple of yards away from you. What are you doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
Yeah. Yeah, but if that was a tuna, she'd have two hands. Because sharks are dangerous.

Related to the Chupacabra, if you had to bet, on one of these mythical creatures that have been rumored to be in existence like Nessie, Bigfoot, the Yeti, the Chupacabra. Which do you think has the most compelling evidence and if you had to bet on being the most real?

I wanted to ask him about the Luka Doncic defensive metrics. You see they're third in defense since the acquisition? Who had that?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
It's surprising that in this small sample it's been third.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
I would say it would be impossible to hide for a game. They've hit it for multiple games. I would have thought that there's plenty of places you could attack them defensively.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
I've done some digging, and I found perhaps a player that you could pair with LeBron and Luka to make it a good defense. Now, they've been the number one scoring team, and they've also had the number one defense over the last 17 games, and they've been third since trading away Anthony Davis. However, there's this player, Jared Vanderbilt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
who is essential to their defense because they have a defensive rating of 110.7 with him on the court, but one of 116 points without him on the court. So when he's on the court helping their defense, it certainly hides the issues that you would assume would be there with LeBron at 40 and Luka.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
Anthony Davis is supposed to be the guy that's awesome.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Happy Birthday Ron Magill!
That is the outlier, though. I think part of the explanation and why their defense has been so good is Hornets, Trailblazers, Jazz twice. That would certainly boost that defensive rating.

guess rightfully upset that their star players now hurt for what was an exhibition tournament turned out to be a lot more than an exhibition tournament it was the first opportunity to play best on best internationally for these players in 11 years in soccer country before club it's always such an honor to represent your country and it's cool to see that after 11 years that
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
No, you know how Stugatz is. Like, I think I'm going to Australia. Okay, cool. You want to tell us when? I don't know. Probably going to Syracuse first.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
The lure of the crest is not lost. That playing for his country was a huge honor for him. And as a Panther fan, you have to kind of accept that they're going to be playing with high-level intensity and some players can get hurt. Not the only American that got hurt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
Perhaps. Perhaps that frames it, although Florida is still very much a franchise that is competing for another Stanley Cup to go to their third straight Stanley Cup final. But I understand why people are upset about it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
I think my perspective on it, because I follow soccer so much and understanding international breaks happen in the middle of the season and often top tier players pull muscle and aren't available on the club side, that it's just kind of next man up, country before club.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
Yeah, you know, your traditional Miami to Syracuse. You've got to go north to go south. Lax.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
Here's where I think there's an understandable frustration. The Boston Bruins came out with a team statement really chastising the training staff. I believe it's a Minnesota Wild training staff that was assigned to take care of Team USA. Chucky was injured. He missed the game against Sweden. And the staff and Chucky all came to an agreement.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
I am sure there was communication back to the Florida Panthers. He's got to give it a go. And you could seize on that decision. He was hurt enough to miss a game. We rushed him back. Other players were held out of the tournament. Quinn Hughes wasn't deemed healthy enough by the Vancouver Canucks to go play in this Four Nations competition.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
What happened to Charlie McAvoy is interesting. Charlie McAvoy suffers a hit, then gets some sort of complication that sees him going to Mass General when he was supposed to be in the care of this training staff. They botch it to the point that he has to get admitted to the hospital. So you can have your questions about Team USA's training staff, I guess.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
Yes, but that daughter's in Australia.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
I don't know. Because Chucky wasn't in it. If Chuck wasn't playing in the championship game against Canada, I would have been disappointed. Like, tough it out. This is a really huge game for hockey in this country. It would be a huge honor to beat Canada in that sport and secure a championship against them on the international level, best on best. So I'm glad he gave it a go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
I'm fortunate that he's going to be out a couple of weeks. Thankfully, the Florida Panthers are good enough to withstand this absence. Maybe they make a move before the deadline, but it comes with the territory.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
He just did the Tonight Show. A Florida Panther went on... Or a USA hockey player. That's kind of where he went. He went on the Cadillac of late night talk show properties. Is it still? In terms of fame, the Tonight Show means something. Do we still make Cadillac?

When you see that at the youth level, nine times out of ten, that person is a bona fide superstar. That is just not something that you can fake. He's not nepoing his way to 11 goals in a game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia

It's way more offensive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
I mean, they've been working on the highways my entire life. My entire life. The 836 and the 826 have been under construction. So I got to think they're working on it. They work on it so long that by the time they complete something, they have to work on a new thing again.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
I'm more worried about that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
We all agree that the MLS playoffs, winning that championship, is the one that he's going to be judged against because that's the one that most casual fans understand. Correct. But he's been here for a season and a half, and he's won two major trophies as a member.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia

They've won two trophies. This is a disconnect that I kind of understand because he needs to win the league. And I try to argue that he has won the league. But no, he needs to win the playoffs. Okay, so he'll win that too. He'll get to that. He's won two other trophies. They're in the Club World Cup.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Billy Apologizes to Australia
They're in the kickoff game against that where they test their mettle against top clubs from all over the world. And that's something that they earned their way in because they won things to get in there. So they've won things of significance here. And if you think he needs to win the MLS Cup, he probably feels the exact same way. And he'll try to win that damn thing.

I'm incapable of new thoughts when it comes to this franchise because I've been saying this was coming for two years. It's a failure on the leadership when it comes to talent acquisition.

A couple of years ago, I had the opportunity to talk to Dan when he was at a similar career crossroads and he was very thoughtful about it. And so just leaning off of my life experience, I would believe what he's saying there. And he's taking his time to focus on what his next move is.

Basketball players be hockey players. If I may, there's one thing that Dominique said, like, I don't understand. Like, we all just kind of went with it. The NFL showed you that owners, management, players, down the line, they can all get on the same message and understand what affects business. And we're affording basketball. We don't think basketball players can do the same thing.

Whatever the NBA is dealing with right now, keep in mind, Roger Goodell was dealing with people complaining about the style of play because it was bad at the time. Ray Rice and Colin Kaepernick. The NBA hasn't dealt with all those things at the exact same time to that magnitude. Not once. And Roger Goodell turned things around.

I understand, but look at the last few MVPs. We haven't had an American MVP in this sport. Europe has taken over the game.

The arrow has been pointing down, not up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Sir, Do You Know Where I Can Find A Bathroom?
When the NFL decided to stop the Kaepernick thing, no more kneeling during the anthems, we're all going to get aligned in the name of business. Their numbers increased.

No, I don't want to suppress the labor enough to where they have to bend the knee. I'm just saying that there's numbers proving that they are not headed in the right direction. and you guys are just saying, well, that's their toast. It is what it is. This is always going to be the power dynamic.

Hour 2: Sir, Do You Know Where I Can Find A Bathroom?
We're workshopping here. I don't think that there's a bad spitball here. There are great explanations for it. But let me give you an example in which business crossed platforms and barriers and everybody got aligned because the NBA has shown you they can do this. Adam Silver has shown you they can do this. China. They did it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Sir, Do You Know Where I Can Find A Bathroom?
Because while the arrow's pointing down here, globally, the sport is still growing. They're looking at international expansion, as all these leagues are. They're not just limited. Yeah, we're probably not going to grow anymore in the States. We can turn some of those numbers around, but our big growth for our sport is internationally. They got the message on China.

Ich weiß, dass die Zeiten unmöglich sind, um zu vergleichen, aber einige der Jungs, die in der Liga sind, besonders einige der Jungs, die am meisten bekannt sind, LeBron zum Beispiel, Kevin Durant, waren da, als David Stern da war.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Perception Is Not Reality
Aber ich habe einfach eine schwierige Zeit, mich daran zu wenden. Es würde sich definitiv anders fühlen, wenn David Stern verantwortlich gewesen wäre. Er war so ein Kult der Persönlichkeit, dass die Spieler so viel Macht bekommen hätten, dass Adam Silver, den wir alle bezeichnen, Er geht in den Lockerraum und sagt, okay, Leute, lasst uns versuchen, Amerika ein gutes Spiel zu geben.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Wenn er nicht zuerst gewählt wird. Oh, dann ist das interessant. Ein bisschen. Glaubst du, er wird zuerst gewählt?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Ja, 100 Prozent. Und ich bin froh, dass es ganz ehrlich herausgekommen ist, weil ich nicht Fan war, wie Restrepo das Spiel vorbereitet hat. Es war schlecht. Und Restrepo hat dieses Ding, Unterhüter-Mentalität, er hat sich auf den All-Time-Leader der Universität Miami entwickelt, aber es gibt viele Mythen. Der Typ macht viele Dinge für Likes und, du weißt, ein kräftiger Typ.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Jeder denkt, das muss ein großer Team-Typ sein. It wasn't about the NFL. If it was about the NFL, Cam Ward wouldn't have been playing. Cam Ward said directly, there were some guys that weren't playing in that bowl game that should have been playing in that bowl game. Cam Ward entered that bowl game against a top five pass defense without three of his four leading receivers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Elijah Arroyo might be a first round pick. Er war da draußen. Cam Ward könnte der erste Overall-Pick sein. Er war da draußen. Xavier Reschrepo wollte nicht draußen sein. Xavier Reschrepo hatte keine Schmerzen. Er hat die Entscheidung gemacht. Und das ist okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Aber wenn der Nummer 1 Overall-Pick potenziell spielt, wenn der Mann, der dir die All-Time-Leading-Receiver-Statistik bei der Universität Miami hilft, spielt, denke ich, dass du es ihm verdienst. Und für mich ging es nicht um die NFL. Es ging um die Präparation, die in die Bowl-Game ging. Es ging um die zwei Wochen, in denen Xavier Reschrepo nicht teilnehmen wollte.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Ich bin froh, dass er an die Aufgabe gekommen ist, weil ich denke, Xavier Reschrepo wird sich zurücksehen lassen und das regreieren lassen. Weil der Weg, den er weggezogen hat, die Leute in einem gewissen Art und Weise gefühlt hat. Das ist nicht der Ausflug, den wir geglaubt haben. Das ist nicht der Mythos, den wir verkaufen wollten.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Es ist eine halbe schlimmer. Nein, es ist viel schlimmer, weil Cam Ward nicht nur für die erste Halbzeit da war, was spektakulär war. Er war da mit seinen Brüdern für zwei Wochen, ging zur Praxis, ging durch den Grind, vorbereitete sich für das Bowl-Spiel, ein letztes Spiel mit seinen Jungs. Xavier Ruiz-Raphael hat nichts gemacht. Er hat alles geoppt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Er hätte nicht gespielt und noch nicht auf dem Programm gespielt. Das ist sein Vorgang. Aber niemand sagte etwas. Die Leute wussten, dass es hinter den Szenen geht. Er muss alles tun, was er will. Aber ich fand es überraschend. Du machst etwas, was viele Fans tun werden.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Was mich am meisten überrascht hat, war, dass Cam ein nationales Thema geworden ist, weil er nicht in der zweiten Halbzeit gespielt hat, als Cam eine ganze Halbzeit mehr gespielt hat, als er gebraucht hat. Miami hat Carson Beck heute, weil sie mit dem Plan in die Bowl-Game gegangen sind. Sie mussten Emory Williams evaluieren.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Sie hatten den besten Verteidiger im Portal, der nach Miami gekommen ist, weil sie nicht Cam das ganze Spiel gespielt hat. Cam hat eine Halbzeit mehr gespielt, als ich gehört habe, dass er spielen wird. Es geht nicht darum. Es geht darum, dass dieser Kerl und viele andere Spieler in der NIL-Ära sagen, dass die Bowl-Games ein bisschen mehr bedeuten werden. Wir werden nicht Teil des Problems sein.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Es ist wie in der NBA-Diskussion. Wir werden tatsächlich spielen. Und Cam wurde national verurteilt, weil er eigentlich mehr spielt. Wenn er überhaupt nicht gespielt hätte, hätte er keine Kritik bekommen. Aber die Tatsache, dass er nur eine Halbzeit gespielt hat, machte das mehr Sinn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
In der Zwischenzeit, ein Typ wie Xavier Restrepo, der sich auf den gesamten Prozess des Ballpreppes konzentriert hat, ist einfach nicht fair.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
I'm just saying... And they'd be stuck with Emery Williams if Cam Ward does play that second half. Nobody believes that. Nobody believes that? He just told you that, though. He's telling you that from the inside of it. Emery Williams is the quarterback if you don't get the chance to evaluate him in that bowl game. I'm telling you, 100% certain.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Ich sage nicht, dass du falsch bist, das ist einfach wild.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Sie liebten Emery. Offensive Coordinators fallen in Liebe mit verschiedenen Jungs. Das ist so, wie Kirk Cousins fast 1 Billion Dollar gemacht hat. Sie lieben Jungs, die den Offensiv ausüben. Es gab viele Leute, Boosters und Leute auf der Staff, die ihre Fragen darüber hatten. Aber Menschen wie Shannon Dawson liebten Emery Williams, zum Beispiel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Und die gesamte Coach-Staff liebte Emery Williams' Grit. Ich, als jemand, der gerade im Training war und die Spiele gespielt hat, habe keine besonderen Talenten gesehen. Ich wollte immer die Position verbessern, aber ich sage dir, die zweite Halbzeit war massiv für das, wo Miami sich jetzt mit Carson Beck befindet.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Ich sage dir auch mit Sicherheit, dass der Weg, den Xavier Restrepo auf dieses Spiel geschaut hat, nicht gut erhoben wurde. Es fühlte sich schlecht an. Es fühlte sich eher an wie Sam Brown, der auch auf dem Team gestoßen wurde. Aber egal, er ist Sam Brown. Es gab ein paar Leute, die wussten, was sie riskieren sollten.

Leute mit legitimen NFL-Prospekten, die wussten, was sie riskieren sollten, indem sie die Schulterpads anziehen. Look, Kim Ward would have liked to have taken two weeks off and prepared for the NFL Draft and not have to worry and watch film, but he didn't do that. For his teammates, he went out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
And then he got vilified by the national media for doing just that, where he could have just been playing golf like some of his other teammates.

Ich habe auch die Chain of Command respektiert, weil ich nicht darüber sprechen wollte, bis Cam Ward mir einen Beweis gegeben hat. Du hättest nicht über den Pop-Tarts-Bowl sprechen wollen. Ich hätte nicht über Xavier Reschrepo aus dem Bowl-Spiel sprechen wollen.

Es ist ziemlich erstaunlich, dass die zweite Halbzeit so schrecklich war, dass Miami ihren ganzen Plan für diese Position verändert hat. Es ist schwer zu glauben.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Ridiculous. No. It was decidedly pro Emery and then after that half, everyone kind of knew. Everyone kind of knew.

Ist das so? Weil jeder von euch hat die gleiche Vorstellung von Emery Williams. Ich dachte nie, dass er gut war.

Ist das nicht so, wo du bist?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Es war ziemlich offensichtlich für alle, dass Miamis Defense ein Schmuck war und dass die Veränderungen gemacht werden mussten. Manchmal hilft es dir, nicht super nah dran zu sein. Die Staffel liebte Emory Williams und die Staffel sah den präzisen Fall zwischen Cam Ward, einem potenziellen Nr. 1-Pick, und Emory Williams. Es war nicht eine richtige Situation für Emory Williams.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan Is A Racist And Sexist
Aber es war offensichtlich. Wenn Emre Williams in der zweiten Halbzeit gut spielt und Miami das Spiel gewinnt, ist Emre Williams in aller Wahrscheinlichkeit nächstes Saison-Quarterback.

Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
It feels like you're trying to steal this segment away from Tony by making it Royce's top five.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
He's proven worthy of that contract. He's a good player. Is he ever going to be confused with the best in the sport? No. But can you win with him? Absolutely. I hope they do because it'd be a really great story for him. This guy was playing defensive end on scout team for the Carolina Panthers. Crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
No doubt. No doubt. This guy's big sin was to play through an injury and maybe could have been a little bit more professional about his time over there, but they shoved him out the door and replaced him with Deshaun Watson.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Sorry, we wrote them all. There are no more Royce Top Tens. Is Dwork going to be there?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
And for a team that was struggling for 20 plus years to find a quarterback, for them to have one, for them to have one who was runner up in the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year, said all sorts of passing records as a rookie, won a wildcard game at Pittsburgh, made Ben Roethlisberger all sad. That's the stuff that you were dying for. as a Browns fan, and you couldn't wait to push him out the door.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Hours after he flew into town.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
That lands so harshly to Carolina Panthers fans as both of them excel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
I've asked people on the know, independent of the injury, which is, I think, a huge part of this, which made him play worse, which if he's not playing worse, then you don't open the door to him leaving. But by all accounts, it seemed as though Baker's time at Cleveland was at an end. There were divisions in the locker room. He had worn out his welcome. He was at a different point in his career.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
But you could make a quick evaluation on Baker Mayfield. In retrospect, he was really good as a rookie. He wasn't as good when he had Freddie Kitchens, one of the worst head coaches of all time, as his head coach in that second year. Really good his third year, wins a playoff game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
And in his fourth year, he battles through multiple bad injuries and tries to tough it out, which affects his performance. You could look at the first four years of his career and say, I can explain why he's bad. And I'm pretty confident this guy is good. That's what I kept saying as it was happening. I did not want Deshaun Watson. I wanted to keep Baker. I was team Baker all the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
I didn't want to replace him. While other people were saying this team is just a quarterback away, no, they're just a healthy Baker Mayfield away.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
You're the one that keeps pushing this Rose thing, and you keep saying Lucy. I think you're the biggest Rose guy here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Does Tony want to say it now too?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But what's going on? Is there a show in Vegas? Is there a show in Vegas that she goes to?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
It's a toy drive. Back up Chris's judgment here. Do you want to go to it again? Hey, folks, it's Mike Ryan. The holiday season is upon us. Christmas is coming next week. So what are you doing for it? I imagine you're going to have some family over. How do you entertain the family? How do you keep everybody happy? Well, I know one easy way. Make your holiday time Miller time.

It's not even west of the Turnpike.

Bring out a nice silver platter of that beautiful white can. Or bottle whatever your preference. Heck, do it on draft. As long as it's got that beautiful amber color and was Triple Hops brewed, you know it's going to be a hit. Why? Because Miller Lite has tastes you know you can depend on. No games, no gimmicks, just great beer for people who like beer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Take a sip, look around, see your family, and know you immediately made the best decision possible. Because Miller Lite is brewed for taste. It hits different than other light beers. Simple ingredients. like malted barley for rich, balanced toffee note flavors in the iconic golden color. The original light beer since 1975 and still the best one. Making memories at year-end gatherings?

I mean, there's a Topgolf west of it. Now, after that Topgolf, it's the Everglades.

Football season ended in Syracuse for me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

It's like more of a car PEZ dispenser. Really? Huh.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Less inflatables somehow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Yeah. There's a silencer technique. And also, you're not in control of how much water is in the bowl. If there is a bowl that has less water in it, you're probably going to want to go closer to D2 range.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
You go corners.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
You want it to cascade off the side and it limits the sound. You can also sit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I mean, you guys are all like, all the ladies are like J5, right? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
Yeah. Well, I guess my mistake. H5. F5. Huh?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
E5.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
What if it's a public restroom?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Zach Charbonnet, Baker Mayfield, and The Toilet Grid
I think it's OKC.

The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Dan, we dug ourselves out of that awkwardness, and we're giving Tony a shine. Not to throw it back in his face and have him spiral.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Tell Dan about the 40-burger, Dan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Tony, number two. And later we're going full circle.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Well, that was a joke.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Now it's his turn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
I think I just ruined it. We'll play the game later, though. Jeez. Hey folks, it's Mike Ryan. The holiday season is upon us. Christmas is coming next week. So what are you doing for it? I imagine you're going to have some family over. How do you entertain the family? How do you keep everybody happy? Well, I know one easy way. Make your holiday time Miller time.

They have that look, Tony.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
They're selling Rose now. Sorry, we've moved on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
And that's very convenient because you can just pull up to that location, and it's in a mall. So if you don't have a toy with you, walk in the mall, grab a toy, and bring it to Vivo.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
That Packers who's who performance actually paved the way for the Rams to host a playoff game and beat anybody.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Baby, I can tell you that I'm pissed they hit Rose with the spray. Oh, she sounded like a goose who stepped on with heels. Yeah, even though Rose wasn't due, it's Harry and Lucy laughing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
She's like, you're not going to believe this. We're going back to you. You're going back to another pageant.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
They ran it back? I did this once before. O-L-I, O-L-I, I have a top five.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
She got me. The rare. I haven't seen Miss Congeniality 2. I'm sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
I took a guess that they decided to repeat the formula, the wildly successful Miss Congeniality 1. And I missed the mark. For that, I apologize.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Okay, but I saw you two... You sure there isn't a beauty pageant? Because Sister Act 2, back in the habit, was kind of, like, different, but also similar. In that she was still a nun.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
And he faked it. I'm like a dog with a bone on this one. There's got to be some sort of beauty contest.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
There has to be a pageant somewhere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Yeah, there has to be a pageant. Maybe she's one of the judges at the pageant.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
No, not at all. No, I'm telling you, there's a pageant in this goddamn movie. It's Mike's favorite American comedy. There has to be a pageant. She's got the whole pageant sash.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Do you know who you're speaking to? There is 100% a goddamn pageant in this movie.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
So everyone's in the car singing one song and she's just doing Florence at the top of her lungs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Yeah, he hit it off of Skinner. This is a complete play. Reinhardt's a great two-way player. Doesn't get the attention because he's on the team with Barkov, who was out... by the way. And this was such a huge win because the Oilers came in red hot, five in a row, scoring over five goals a game in that five. And they flatly don't lose when they score over five goals.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Panthers haven't been shut out again. The usual part of the calendar where they dip, they go down two goals and you think it's over. And then they have this incredible performance. And that is how you fake something without having watched it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
I definitely didn't give up on that game after they went down two goals. Definitely didn't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
I'm totally good with the wizard should be a Jeff Goldblum type. So Jeff Goldblum playing himself. I didn't have an issue with it, but I get what you're saying. But I also was a wicked virgin going into it. I love The Wizard of Oz, but I'd never seen the musical. And I came away blown away by it. And that's exactly what movies should be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
It felt like a throwback, not just because it was a musical, but you had these practical sets being built, and it took you to another world without this weird greenish hue of special effects clouding everything. It didn't feel like a Marvel movie. It felt like these were things that were rooted in real tangible things, and I loved it. Any other Wicked Virgins around here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
That was a terrible Boston.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Wicked virgin? You called it wicked. Yes, I did do that. What they do in Eastern Europe.

Yes. There you go. Now you get it. Be worse. Yes. Thank you.

The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
I think she nailed it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Come visit her at the Flanagan's in Coconut Grove and drop off a toy. Don't just visit her. That'd be weird.

Bring your cash. Bring everything you have, okay? I think Rose just unplugged the decorative thing behind Tony by mistake.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
Rose just unplugged something that does not belong to her at Flanagan's. Oh, Jesus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
She's got it, man. She really does. We were trying to force it, and we probably fell on the wrong side of it, and then she's just organically making magic on her own.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 NFL Teams You Don't Want To See Come Playoff Time
This is her segment now.

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

Hour 2: Jason Benetti's Absurd Observations & Limited Fakes
Howdy, folks. It's Mike Ryan. I want to responsibly speak to you about my favorite time, Miller time. Look, a lot of things are coming back in the season. MLS is back. P's and C's in the MLB. You know who puts the ML in those sports? Miller Lite. That's right. From basketball to hockey to game night, winter means more moments with the coolest people in your life.

Hour 2: Jason Benetti's Absurd Observations & Limited Fakes
Terry Rozier. Yeah. Hated him as a basketball player. Always did. The only reason why he's not number three on this list is because by getting Terry Rozier, we got rid of Kyle Lowry, who I hated. That's fanfare for the wheel. Number three. Number three. Number two, this is real talk. This is me being honest. Bradmore shunned. I did not like that one bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jason Benetti's Absurd Observations & Limited Fakes
And number one is obvious. Deshaun Watson. Maybe stop being a fan.

By the way, one of the better nicknames already in the sport for their quarterback, Indiana Jones.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jason Benetti's Absurd Observations & Limited Fakes
I do. These are top five acquisitions that I hated upon learning, that I was never behind it, didn't like it. When they signed them, I was bummed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jason Benetti's Absurd Observations & Limited Fakes
Jimmy Butler. Not a Jimmy Butler guy. Thought he was inefficient. Didn't like what he was doing in the locker rooms. Didn't think it would work out. And he largely proved me wrong.

He missed a pen in the Super Cup and then he went gallivanting around the Premier League and then he just held Chelsea hostage for like a huge payday. You knew his heart was never in it.

Let's talk about something that makes watching college hoops even better. Evan Williams' Bourbon. It's game day's number one pour. The perfect addition from tip-off traditions to buzzer-beater celebrations. This award-winning Bourbon is extra aged for a taste that's smooth, rich and easy to enjoy. Whether neat, on the rocks or in a classic cocktail. Personally, I like to drink it on the rocks.

But does Mike Tomlin want to put up with the Aaron Rodgers circus? Because that does not seem like a fit to me at all. Wenn Russell Wilson bei einem guten Preis zurückkommen würde, wäre das eine bessere Wahl für die Stealers als Aaron Rodgers. Er hatte eine gute zweite Halbzeit, aber er ist immer noch unbekannt und er bringt so viel Wachstum. Warum würdest du das bringen, wenn du Mike Tomlin bist?

Yeah, but Mike Tomlin kept that under wraps. But we know Aaron Rodgers is crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

If you're Mike Tomlin, who has not had a losing season ever, who has kind of this, you know, mold that he likes for his team, why would you risk that for bringing in a 42-year-old quarterback for one season and throw everything off just out of desperation? Because maybe Aaron Rodgers can take us to the second round of the playoffs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers

So that provides a bit of a hurdle for Nosferatu.

Nellie Doogie. Correct. It was Akasha, famously played by the late Aaliyah, the aforementioned Queen of the Damned. Close, Greg.

Some of that stuff is inaccurate. In Rice's universe, Louis is impressed by the interviewer. What about crucifixes and all that stuff? And Louis reveals, I'm actually quite fond of them.

Hour 2: The Child Vampire
Now, in the AMC series, I really like how that one's played between Lestat and Louis, and they are fully embraced in their gay love story, which is one that the film kind of touched on because the times were different, but you get a truer sense of their relationship in the AMC series, which I highly recommend.

That Lestat knocks it out of the park, dare I say, even better than Tom Cruise's version.

I don't think I could. It meant you were going to die? I would say someone else go. If I had a hammer. Exactly.

Another thing that we have to ask ourselves is why in the older films does Dracula transform into your conventional bat, but in Bram Stoker's Dracula, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, he transforms himself into a six-foot bat. That's not very sneaky. No, it really isn't.

Hour 2: The Child Vampire
Can you look up what they were doing at the end of Braveheart? Oh. Well, because the camera pans down, but only so much. And I was young when I saw it. I'm like, are they doing something with his balls?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Child Vampire
I have an update on William Wallace's balls. They strongly imply that he was subject to the full execution. Now, a lot of this feels excessive because he does end up getting hanged at the end of all this. But they first start with quartering where the body was cut into pieces. Then they also do something called drawing, which is disembowelment and castration. So bang on on the balls.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Child Vampire
And then they hang him. I feel like we're beating a dead horse.

The Prince thing is confusing. They're worried about... Was I not vague enough? Allegedly. Allegedly vague. Is it just putting this thing in the public conversation that everyone's like, huh?

Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
So miscalculation on my part. I've recently lost some weight, so I haven't needed the nipple stickers as much, but I'm wearing a hockey jersey, and it is really chafing up my nipples right now. I've got these Swedish crowns on each one of them, and it's not a nice sight. But I will take another victory lap, though. I was told that I don't know ball because I said Anthony Davis is always injured.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
And everybody that has been watching the NBA since the Miami Heat acquired Terry Rozier told me he's actually pretty healthy. That's a bygone era. That's an old take. We were right. Anthony Davis, he can't stay healthy. They traded Luka Doncic because they were worried about his fitness. And traded for Anthony Davis in return.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
This is when the rumors were circulating that Terry Rozier was a possibility for the Miami Heat, something that sent a chill down my spine. But keep in mind, we had Kyle Lowry on our roster at that moment in time, too. So I was put in a very difficult position.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
Do you think they would? If they had an opportunity. The league said, you know what? It's not fair. You can undo it. Do you think they would?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Everyone out! When a dog's in water, everyone takes their cameras out. When there's a shark in the water, they yell shark. That's not a good sign. It's not. It's not. Put it on the pole. If you're an animal and they yell your name out loud, are you dangerous? Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
I do not like Terry Rozier. If the trade is Kyle Lowry for Terry Rozier, what the Miami Heat are doing is moving my least favorite player of all time for my second least favorite player of all time. I am public in my desire to not. ever have Terry Rozier on this team. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
She's got Lewis right now. It's a bit of a hazard to try to pull off this bit because I'm like this close to stepping on his ear. But... Maybe I step on his back and actually help the process. But yeah, Terry Rozier stinks. But the thing is, he always has.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
And I had the foresight to just read box scores and tell you that he's a very inefficient player and the Miami Heat did not have this magic wand system.

that they could just keep replicating this even Deion Waiters we talked ourselves into him he was a fitter Deion Waiters he is a bad basketball player presently being investigated for throwing a basketball game or at least affecting his own props I still uh I'm being told that he's a very bad basketball player somehow even worse but I am still effectively boycotting this team after that acquisition I couldn't be happier

I never thought it would be funny. And yet the person that is still resolute is the person that is the one that's sending people into this. But I can say wholeheartedly, this bit doesn't work out at all. And I'm taking a victory lap, a winded one, really winded, to really hammer home
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Down The Rabbit Hole (feat. Ron Magill)
The fact that I never thought this was going to be funny, and somehow I'm more right about this than I was on Terry Rose here. Oh, God.

Your season on the end of the season, and yeah, he closed stronger than he started. But overall, this was a very bad experiment. Wasn't worth the headlines. And also, they're probably going to lose what they invested in Devontae Adams now, too. All of it was bad.

All of it was super predictable. He's a different quarterback. And when all the pressure is off and his friend's over there and he just wants to spam him yards down the field, yeah, he'll chuck it down and show you that he can still throw it. But he refuses to for the vast majority of the season when it mattered most. Don't fool yourself into that close.

We're worried about what if we reset and we get worse at the position somehow and they end up holding on to those guys maybe a little bit longer than they should have. You are not in that class. The Steelers and the Vikings were way closer. You are not a good team. So you hit reset.

Seem to have checked in with the Miami Heat recently, especially after that athletic story.

And when we talked about the Miami Heat as

I don't know. Look, beating Boston in those two runs were great. I love listening to the radio stations out there having that over Boston.

Yeah. How do you beat pressure with four when they have seven guys back there in the secondary? You run the damn ball. That's how you beat it. You want to play a numbers game? Okay, they got seven back there. That means we have a numbers advantage up front. Let's run the –

They did abandon the run early. They had that drive after it was 17-0 where everyone kind of knew, okay, including the Eagles, by the way, at that point, we're going to try to reestablish the run. And they get like four yards on their first two plays. And they're like, well, I guess that's that. And to me, that's not how you do that. That's not how you stay committed to the run.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Piano Man
Those weren't creative run plays. Everybody in the building knew that they were going to run there. I think you stick with the run beyond that. You go four down territory. You run on third down. You run something other than an HB dive.

I mean, I saw them win a Super Bowl in which you could have made a sound argument that Damian Williams was the MVP of that game. And last year they had a lot more balance. Look, Pacheco is hurt. Kareem Hunt is older. Maybe they have to address that position. There are reasons why it wasn't as effective. Pacheco never looked the same. He is a punishing runner.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Piano Man
But last year, Pacheco getting the ball more and taking the ball out of Patrick Mahomes' hands, that wasn't a bad play. That was a very effective play. They could have used Pacheco from last year.

It's a huge disconnect between people that try to talk about this. And I understand fully the resentment of coaches that hear us say things like run a draw. And think that we're idiots. But honestly, we have no idea what those coaches are actually trying to achieve. We don't actually know. We can assume, yeah, pressure with four, collapsing the pocket, that'll wreck it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But we don't actually know what they're doing in the secondary, how they're disguising coverages. We don't know if they're actually executing a game plan. We just have the results to work off of.

No doubt. To the Roseman point, Great offseason. Potentially one of the greatest ever. Amazing. Hired Fangio. We know Fangio wanted to go back to that area. But hired Kellen Moore, who had to rebuild his reputation, now maybe a head coach in the league, possibly New Orleans. Signed Saquon Barkley. Signed Zach Bond, who was amazing for them. C.J. Gardner-Johnson was also a sign.

Mekhi Becton was huge for them. Traded for John Dodson. Drafted Quentin Mitchell and Cooper DeGene. And honestly, we should look back at this Carson Wentz trade and supplant... The Herschel Walker trade. This is the greatest trade in NFL history because in the Carson Wentz trade, they got Devontae Smith, A.J. Brown, Jalen Carter, Cooper DeJean. These are all picks that turned into these players.

Huh. This is all very ugly, and the athletic piece, which you could deduce because of the slant that the story took, came from Jimmy's camp, and it does paint the Miami Heat in a very negative light.

It's all bad, but I would say... Some of this stuff seems to me pretty disingenuous and pretty, it's bad ball. Because he's invoking, if you see the back of his jersey, he's really seizing on this relationship that he had with his father, a relationship that really bloomed more through sickness and adversity. And the Miami Heat were very supportive. I happen to know this for a fact.

Were very supportive. This is a happen-to-know report? I know this for a fact. Everybody in that organization was supportive. supremely supportive of Jimmy when his father was going through this.

Whatever the locker room situation is in Phoenix, he prefers that well over going back to Golden State.

The Big Suey: Jerry Jones, Bill Belichick, and Cyber Squatting (feat. Dianna Russini)
You have to go quarterback just because of how your roster is constructed because no matter what happens with Deshaun Watson, unless there's some other liability, they have to pay that contract in full. So they need to go cheap at the position. The best way to go cheap at the position is hit on a draft pick. So they're either taking Shador Sanders or Cam Ward, right?

The Damian Lillard contract's not that attractive, even though I still think that it would have been a better fit here. I think people tend to look over their multiple pursuits of Kevin Durant.

Because Jimmy, at the very least, he helps you compete this year, and it's a contract that comes off the books. We understand he took his approach in the summer. It was dicey.

You don't go up against Shams in these situations.

And Jimmy Butler's representation and the Miami Heat got cocky, had bravado. I'm not really sure what Jimmy Butler's agent was doing. That seems a little nefarious in retrospect.

he really minimized the possible return for Jimmy Butler by doing that. Because you back a guy who knows how to get out of these situations into a corner, and now every team that's checking in on Jimmy Butler understands you are out of moves and is low-balling you.

He deserves it. And he also deserves to leave this franchise however he wants it. I don't think it's hard to explain that every time you want to criticize something in the moment. We understand what he means to this franchise. We understand why we're here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But in this specific moment, in a vacuum, he has really botched this Jimmy Butler situation in terms of maximizing a return to the point that Jeremy and I are workshopping, like, what's his move now?

And it's just not a sudden development. The writing was on the wall last offseason when we saw everybody in the East get better. And we were just hanging our hat on the development of this franchise.

So why do you think it's going to be different with Anthony Edwards?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

And the only way it could possibly be different with Anthony Edwards in this pie-in-the-sky scenario is you still need capital. And Pat Riley just went out of his way to ruin that possible scenario in not maximizing the return by putting out that statement that put Jimmy in a corner.

And then Taylor did the gym face to the hard cam. I've never, this is like throwing me because it never has the term like, do I look fat in this ever in my mind applied to a hat. It's always like pants or a shirt, but it is totally made you look like 20 pounds heavier, a single hat.

then texting it in is much harder yes yes open my eyes a new phrase it should be scanning it in it is uh more expensive do any of you know what a stamp costs these days because uh sometimes by the book so i got individually i think it comes down to a couple like 60 something cents uh i don't know buying bulk whenever i need a stamp i go to my parents mom and dad need a stamp he's got your dad always

Yes, you're right. I mean, you are living a wealthy life if you can splurge on this. I Google it. I'm like, what is the wait? Sometimes I get the lesson taught to me. It gets sent back. And that's why mailing it in no longer applies because you've got to work to mail something in now.

Wait, has this cliche evolved with the times, and then we just forgot, this generation forgot to evolve it? Because mailing it in, and there's also phoning it in, and I assume phoning it in came after mailing it in. Why haven't we come to the table with texting it in?

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

Because a process is like this. They probably won't be throwing a pro day. At that school. They probably don't have the resources, and a front office may not allocate those resources to go scout a D3 player.

Imagine you're a scout for one of the NFL teams, and before the Combine, you're like, guys, I'm telling you, Will Howard's the guy. I'm telling you, he's the one. No one's talking about it. He's the one. Then he performs like that. And now you get him as a UDFA. You have to go back to that meeting and be like, I'm telling you guys. Do you think that guy today is like, all right, I was wrong?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Or he's like, I'm telling you, it was just a bad day. He had a migraine.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jessica Barfs Up Her Sandwich (feat. Mina Kimes)
I don't know. Like I just said, I think it's definitely a combination. If someone was fighting for Will Howard, they now have to go to that meeting today and be like, Do I really go to the mat again for this guy? Am I going to lose my job over my take on Will Howard?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jessica Barfs Up Her Sandwich (feat. Mina Kimes)
You're asking the important questions.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jessica Barfs Up Her Sandwich (feat. Mina Kimes)

Howdy, folks. It's Mike Ryan. I want to responsibly speak to you about my favorite time, Miller time. Look, a lot of things are coming back in the season. MLS is back. P's and C's in the MLB. You know who puts the ML in those sports? Miller Lite. That's right. From basketball to hockey to game night, winter means more moments with the coolest people in your life.

Make these moments even better with Miller Lite, the greatest tasting light beer for people like you and me who love their beer. Now's the perfect time for friends, family, and a great tasting light beer. Taste like Miller time. And it's got taste that you know you can depend on. No games, no gimmicks, just great beer for people who love their beer because it's brewed for taste.

Or Mount Gregmore. You could really nail down the player Mount Rushmore to just two names.

Wade and Marino? Wade and Marino. That's a tier to itself. Bubble Jimmy, though. I would agree with that. What about Kachuk? Barkov would be... Kachuk's got to win a little bit more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
And I guess Barkov... Well, we'll see. That story's yet unreal. Who would be the Marlin? Miguel Cabrera? Nobody. No Marlin. Nobody. No Marlin even made it to my OLI on coaches. You could make an argument for Jack McKeon, left him out of my OLI. When Paul Maurice, Ron Frazier, and Howard Schnellenberger are all eye on my coach, Mount Rushmore.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
My Mount Rushmore for coaches is Jimmy Johnson.

I mean, he does get some points for the Dolphins.

But Miami was very proud of that Cowboys team because it also had Michael Irvin on it, so it kind of felt like a Miami team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
But he did his best work down here in this market, I think, with that Miami run. Number three is Eric Spolstra. Often forgotten because he's always compared to Riley. More successful head coach in terms of championships than Pat Riley. Best timeout caller in sports history. Kind of ruined that a little bit. Pat Riley's number two and then Shula number one. And that one's pretty easy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
But I think we can all agree, Marino and Wade, that's a tier to itself. You could make a social and global impact metric for Messi, but he hasn't been here long enough yet.

The amount of confidence I'm down with from Michael Strahan, I actually can understand. how Michael Strahan can climb to the heights of professional football, conquer morning television, and then be the face of GMA, and then decide, yeah, I could be James Bond.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
It actually makes perfect sense why Michael Strahan would believe he could be James Bond, kind of like the way that Stephen A. Smith firmly believes he could be president. I get how your confidence gets to that place. That's not my issue. If you think you can be James Bond, we can disagree about that, but I'm down with your level of confidence. It's just not right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
America's name has been tainted throughout all of Europe. We cannot have Michael Strahan just barging in and volunteering that he could be James Bond right now, given our global standing. It's just too much. Now's not the time. Read the room.

Oh yeah? Have you watched Dante's Peak? No. Well, I don't know what Pierce Brosnan was doing.

The Big Suey: Read The Room
know it has nothing to do with a black james bond don't you put that on me dan i that is not what i'm doing look there was something anti michael strahan being james bond because the timing's not right idris go for it i think you'd be great the dissenting opinion that i heard from carl who is black said that i just don't see michael strahan sitting in a bar undercover in siberia
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
and I had never thought about it that way. Yeah, it's probably not the most undercover approach. Michael Strahan would stick out in Siberia. Excellent point. I'm just saying.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
I didn't—no, but— Why didn't you read the room at all? You're just taking the variables and not any of the actual context.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
You will not turn me against anybody but Michael Strahan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
No, we actually had two completely separate points to make there. Yeah, I was very much pro-Black 007, where Carl came in and he's like, absolutely not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
But he's got great ideas as to why. He's not just a racist. He's thought this racism through.

Ringo Starr also can't be James Bond. I heard a little bit of Austin Powers, too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
It kind of sounded a little like Eric Reid at the end, too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Haven't they all been kind of old? Like, Daniel Craig's not some spring chicken. Yeah, they're all middle-aged. Yeah, that's what it's supposed to be.

Isn't Ralph 60? Yeah, I think so. He said that he wanted to get his body in the shape of a rope for that movie, The Return. He did Homer's Odyssey. He did a movie like that this year that came out to not as much fanfare as Conclave did. He got an incredible shape for that. His body does look like a rope. However, he's 60. Oh, he's very attractive.

When Carl was the racist the entire time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
I don't believe you. I think you're lying right now. And I think you're just trying to stir shit constantly. I understand, like I said, the confidence in why Michael Strahan thinks he can be James Bond, but can we start, it's like Stephen A wanting to be president. And coming out and saying he may have to be. The people want him to be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Read The Room
But he's also been quoted as saying he's got no interest in doing anything but that if he goes into politics. Would it kill you to start as comptroller?

Hour 1: Atop Dan Le Batard's Ivory Tower
Hi, it's Mike from Baltimore. The worst part of the life is not always getting to share the things we enjoy with others. My wife and I, we love swinging. We'd like to share that with others, but when we asked the neighbors if they wanted to swing, they said no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Atop Dan Le Batard's Ivory Tower
When we asked the kids in the community if they wanted to swing, their parents said it was time for them to go eat dinner, even though it was only 3 p.m. So vote for me if you want me to show Dan how to swing.

The Big Suey: Dan's Hippoflage (feat. Jason Benetti)
Guys, I want to talk to you about something that I don't think we think about enough on a daily basis. And that's comfort, specifically when it comes to underwear. Because let's be real, when it's not right, you're going to feel it all day. And that's why I want to tell all of you about Tommy John.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan's Hippoflage (feat. Jason Benetti)
Because the first time I put on a pair, I knew my underwear drawer would just simply never be the same. Tommy John just recently sent some of their product to those of us in the shipping container, and this is my first time wearing Tommy John underwear. I was really blown away by the comfort, by the stretch that was available within the design, by the texture.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan's Hippoflage (feat. Jason Benetti)
There's a genuine comfort, and I can tell that they put in effort to make sure, specifically in our case with men, that we would feel comfortable. Honestly, Tommy John's changed the game for me. I know it's going to be a good day now when I walk out the door and I've got Tommy John on. No distractions, no adjusting, just all-day confidence.

Hey friends, it's JerBear here, and I'm here to tell you all about Boost Mobile, which is now a legit nationwide 5G network. So I must take a break from the jokes here for a second and put on my serious voice. Because I would never ever joke about a 5G network that has invested billions building 5G towers across the country. Not even once. Not even if Mr. Boost Mobile himself asked me to.

It's also because he has this godlike command already that it took Sandy a little while to learn how to pitch instead of just throw. And the command that Skeens has of every single pitch that he throws as a rookie... He was having performances that were like Roger Clemens-like.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I mean, the last guy that we saw come up and be that dominant immediately was Steven Strasburg, and he broke down quickly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Dan's Hippoflage (feat. Jason Benetti)
Obviously, we hope that's not the case with Skeens, but the way he's built, the way he throws, the ease in which he throws with his mechanics, the reason everybody's so excited is because the anticipation is this is one of those guys who's going to be this good for 10 to 15 years. Can I ask you guys a question, the baseball people?

Like if he had just not said the word championship, if he said, I got to get my body right and I want to close the season stronger, we would have been like, man, this is a little too late, but like, okay. Help my team try to make the playoffs, right? Not even that.

Yeah, because I had never known about this fight. Did you guys know that there was a fight in hockey that was worse than Malice at the Palace? Yes. Yeah. I had no idea. This was something that had just dawned on me in the hockey chat. Bob was choosing to put it in there. I had no idea. Really?

I can't imagine how clunky and awkward it is to climb the lower level while you're wearing ice skates. But I guess a stick also helps you maintain your balance.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Yeah, you have the hockey stick, but you have lethal weapons not only in your gloves, but also on your feet. I would not want to fight a hockey player under any circumstances, even if they're wearing their full uniform and we're on dry land.

The Big Suey: I Got Engaged Here Five Years Ago
I imagine they're a lot better at it than I, but this presents its challenges. There's beer on the floor. Ideally, if I were to fight a hockey player that was in full uniform, I'd say sand. Let's fight in sand.

Kevin Durant. is a champion, multiple champion, Olympic gold medalist, probably the greatest scorer I've ever seen, an unprecedented type of scorer with that body type given his range. And I look at his career and I say, what if? I say, what if? Because he's after Golden State. Look, he was the best player on those Golden State teams.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: I Got Engaged Here Five Years Ago
and every decision that he has made since deciding that he was going to leave Golden State has not worked out, and it's not entirely his fault. It could be an inch on a shoe, or it could be partnering up with Kyrie Irving and that whole thing blowing up, the Nets plan. How many games did they play together, their big three? And then the decision to push his way out of there and land on Phoenix.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: I Got Engaged Here Five Years Ago
I know Miami was in that mix and ended up losing. But none of these things have worked out for Kevin Durant. He honestly, if he just stayed put, he'd be talked about on the same level as LeBron, I think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: I Got Engaged Here Five Years Ago
I understand why you think it sounds like I'm criticizing him. I'm not. I'm really not. Kevin Durant has made it abundantly clear who he is and what he's motivated by. I'm just bummed that it hasn't worked out for him, that his decision-making has been bad or unfortunate. I mean, the Achilles injury, too, that's another unfortunate chapter. A lot of this stuff has been out of his control.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: I Got Engaged Here Five Years Ago
We talk about all these stops that he's had. He's been good. He's been the one constant. He's been the one thing that everybody can count on. He's always been about ball. Even when his body has betrayed him, you know that his focus is on ball. He's not a distraction. He's not making waves.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: I Got Engaged Here Five Years Ago
Yeah, maybe he pays attention too much to what people are saying on social media and he's a bit surly, but he genuinely cares about his craft and it just hasn't worked out and I'm bummed for him.

He was great. When I became a Gene Hackman fan was when I was young and he was old and I hadn't known him for all the great roles that he built his career on. I knew him as like a character actor later in life and he was knocking it out of the park. He willingly retired.

I got a hey, Mike, or at least I'm 90 percent sure I heard a hey, Mike. I was so shell shocked by it because I was in a room in which there were some tensions in the room. So he wasn't my focus for the first time. The awkward interaction that I was focusing on wasn't with Josie and he undercut it. He was right next to me and he said, hey, Mike. I said, hey, back. And that was that.

Am I weird for thinking that he is showing humility in that clip because he's very deeply honored by who he beat there. And then he's allowed to say what his goals and aspirations are and how this is a mile marker on that way. True greatness doesn't shy away from opportunities to be great. If Timothee wants to prove how great he is, there's only one role that he should take to prove it.

If you're talking about what America wants, I've been thinking this week, this may be a very difficult weekend for all of the haters because you have two very long-suffering sports franchises.

Like, oh my God, I can't believe the Commanders are about to win a Super Bowl and my team... is blah, blah, blah, the Steelers. But then you have the Chiefs, who obviously, they win all the time.

Are the Bills America's team? Who's the lovable team in this? I guess most people would root for the Commanders or the Bills being first time in decades that they're in this position.

Yeah, percentages on interest. You can make that back very, very easily. The Tesla thing, though, there's a subtext to it.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Even though they're just the Cyclones now, it's hard to... I assess the Cyclones. It's so close to my heart. But we're going to be out there causing a ruckus, causing a scene. Cheap drinks. Come on out and have a good time with us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Well, this was also several months ago, so I'm going to be made very uncomfortable with how I look. Fat?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
He's already in Cancun, depending on how you look at it. The season hasn't exactly gone our way. How does it feel to be an owner of a highlight team? Battlecourt team. Battlecourt. There is a difference. For the uninitiated, there is the great sport of highlight, which originated in the Basque region. And what Battlecourt has done is applied a team concept to it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
It works kind of like team racquetball in a sense. Florida is the only place where
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Well, I think the sport is right now at an exciting inflection point and it's accessible nationwide via YouTube, the HiLi app, watch ESPN and ESPN3. I wasn't quite at the age where it was peaking and it was a place to see and be seen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
but uh i'm of the age where these places started closing down daniela is still kind of cooking keeping the sport alive but there used to be plenty of other places nearby where you can watch highlight and it kind of got said in our show is a very proud history of trying to do its best to revive it come on
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
A real natural fit that the Levitard show and cast members adjacent to it are linking up with Battlecourt and trying to revive it. I think you've been out here for a game before. Multiple times I've been out here. It's a fun atmosphere. We get people into it. Our side in particular starts chanting and acting all sorts of ridiculous. It's a real fun way to spend a Friday night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
And all I want is people to give it a chance.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
I can't lie. When I was first approached by the fine folks at Battlecourt, I thought it would be largely ceremonial and just an opportunity to cosplay Chris Cody as this ridiculous sports team owner that would parody some really outrageous sports owners. But a funny thing happened when we first got involved. We really liked it. and they really empowered us to really manage the roster.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
We built relationships. I watch so much Hi-Li. I'm not gambling again. I honor the code. I don't take action in the sport, but I like scouting. I like pretending like I know what I'm talking about. Like I said, we have a proud track record. If you follow the sport closely enough, you can kind of GM it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
We were talking about that before. It's a hard sport to get invested in because anybody can pick up a pickleball paddle. Anybody can pick up a racket or a soccer ball or a pigskin and toss it around. There's not many places down here where you can pick up a sesta. Number one, they're very hard to find. They're all handmade.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
And find a wall where you can fire off a pelota at 100 miles per hour without doing some serious damage. It's a very dangerous sport. So I know it's really difficult to play. Have you put on a sesta?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
It's very hard. It feels unnatural. You want to turn your wrist, you want to turn your elbow, you want to do all sorts of things that'll actually injure your arm. I have the ultimate amount of respect for people that do this. Maybe you'll have the opportunity to put a sessa on your arm. It'll feel very unnatural. I always have to remind myself of that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Anytime there's like an unforced error and I get frustrated with the player, what they're doing out there is insane. It's like, how about you do it? I would literally die. Not joking. If you put me out there in an intense regulation game of battle court, I would die. There's a million decisions that they have to make in a given minute.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
in a given three set match that their life literally depends on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Well, it's going to sound corny, but in getting to know the sport and getting to know the players and knowing people's backgrounds, this is a passion play. These people are deeply passionate about this sport. There's no other way that they would find themselves here on the one place on the planet that plays this brand of high lives.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
The least I can do is take the time with you, speak in front of cameras and afford our platform on the Levitard Show to really let people, to pound the table for something that is really cool and gnarly. People shouldn't really be doing this. It's so dangerous and cool to look at, especially when someone's diving after a rebote off this one huge piece of glass. I think two players are broken.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
That's how hard. This bulletproof glass. Two players are broken with just a serve, and they dive into this net full speed and find a way to acrobatically not injure themselves. I mean, how can you not love it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
I'm not exactly sure what the Magic City Bounce is. Anytime the ball does something you don't expect, you just say, ah, Magic City Bounce. That's classic, yeah. There are a couple of players here that have like signature tosses. Yeah. Lopez on the Cyclones has this crazy backhand shot. What a catch by Lopez. Here's the backhand low runner. He's new to the game of Battlecourt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
He's been playing over in the Basque region on courts that are three times the size of this. So you can imagine on this Battlecourt front, on that bulletproof clasp, a player that's known for his backhand shot. It is a gnarly shot. Ribote, rifle to the outside and tipped. Beautifully played by Lopez. Do you have a favorite player? Our team captain, Manu.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
No, but in terms of stature in the sport, he's better than Manu Ginobili. Wow. He's the best backcourter in the world, and he has been on the Cyclones since Battlecourt's inception. There are a lot of great people here in the sport, but I struck up a friendship with Mike Carballo, and I have the ultimate respect for Manu.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
So those two guys, they're lifelong Cyclones, no matter what happens, even if they're other incarnations of the Cyclones.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Anybody that's ever won a championship with the Cyclones or plays for the Cyclones this year has this beautiful bomber jacket that cost me way too much money that I'm not telling my wife about.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Mike looks good, man. And he looked good then.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
David, want to come back on and tell us what a bad business investment it is to buy a sports team because you're going to lose money?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
I look at you different now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Why'd you bring this loser aboard?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
That is a pretty good point.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
They're really good, though. Like, that's the crazy part is they've been good without him, and when he's there, they can beat just about anybody in the West. That's what's really wild right now, is there are all these teams right around the play-in. You have the Timberwolves, who made a run last year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
The Clippers, they have the same, not the same winning percentage, but they're both 18 games back, so they're sitting at 7-8. And then you have Golden State. Right there is the 6th seed, just a game ahead of them, so all those teams are vying to square up against whoever the 3rd seed is, but
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Man, when you're thinking about being Oklahoma City or Houston or the Lakers as these one, two, and three seeds, the Clippers, to me, of all those teams, might actually be the team I want the least. They're deep. They're big. They could have won the championship last year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
No, that's totally fair. And for that matter, when you're looking at one of the other teams there, it's Golden State. Jimmy is going to be there for the playoffs because he hasn't played for a year. So he's going to be available.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Well, it's really crazy because when you look back at it five years ago, obviously Mookie Betts now just won a World Series with the Dodgers. They're one of the greatest teams you've ever seen. And the Red Sox were on a path when they had Mookie Betts and a whole bunch of these other guys coming up. Xander Bogarts, who's no longer there as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
The reason this came up recently is because Alex Verdugo was an outfielder for the Yankees last year. I know that name. Not the best season. Still a free agent, kind of surprisingly. He's been a big league player for several years. But he was the headliner in the Mookie Betts trade.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
So when you look back on February 10th, 2020, the Red Sox traded Mookie Betts and David Price to the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for Alex Verdugo, Jeter Downs, and Connor Wong. Woof. That was the trade that they made. And it's the fact that the Red Sox are even a competitive franchise when they made a trade that bad shows you that they've actually done a pretty good job.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Otherwise, that is one of the most overwhelmingly terrible trades I can think of, maybe in baseball history. Mookie Betts is one of the best players of this era by a long shot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Maybe the closest that you have in terms of an era of free agencies the 98 yankees but i don't think there's anything close to what you're seeing they have a player better than babe ruth and he might not even be their best hitter on their team
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

With leading networking and connectivity, advanced fiber solutions, and expert partnership, Comcast Business is powering the connectivity of the PGA Tour. Powering possibilities.

You were next to me as I was calling. Where is Clinton?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
The show has started. Where is Clinton?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
He couldn't refuse because of the implication. People are going to be mad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Last week. Well, we're supposed to do spoiler Wednesday, Dan, not spoiler Thursday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Saying nothing happens in White Lotus is being you're someone who doesn't like foreplay. That's what White Lotus is. White Lotus is just hours and hours of foreplay. Jeremy foreplay expert? Quite the visual we've created.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Just picturing Jeremy. Let me look at your tongue. Let's see it. I'm not going to do that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
I like it. Do you do that fist bump?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Everywhere else, I am a confident person. Just not this studio.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
A little secret. Just say Ryan Lingerhans over and over again with your tongue.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
But I did get you thinking about Ryan Lingerhans.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Think about him the next time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
Audio audiences are going to know. If you ain't, you're doing it wrong. Bones, I'll fist you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
I mean, first things first, he's got to get out of the West.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
It's never good, but I have to explain it to the co-host. Shane Gillis Alexander might not be a bad one either.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
That's an excellent point for Richard Pryor as an example and Kevin Hart, who's shown that he has longevity. There's also Andrew Dice Clay and Dane Cook, guys that were like the biggest acts at the time, but of a time. Dice is back, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Jonathan Yaslow & Jeremy Foreplé
famous for being rich right and bill burke kind of nailed this one on the head they also don't like being told what to do by a guy that the system kind of worked out for you like under joe biden you became the richest man on the planet like what is your problem as a billionaire like how are you so mad with this country why do you want to change everything about this country when it kind of worked out because it's not just white people
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
The Scott Van Pelt thing, just to clarify, OK, because I want to make sure people understand this. I mean it as no indictment of Scott Van Pelt. He's as good as anyone who has ever done that. I'm just saying the construct of what it is these things are. it makes it so that that kind of personality is less important than he or she has ever been and the movement throughout the industry seems to be
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
that it doesn't matter who the anchors are. You guys are telling me that there's a new big show because Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann changed television, but they were also at the center of bucking up against ESPN on ESPN wanted them to change television, but wanted ESPN to get the credit for changing television, not any individual to have the personal power to be able to do anything
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
that harms those letters if they leave. In fact, I would say that one of the chief forms of leadership at ESPN has been simply to make sure that no one else establishes the precedent of being more important than the other folks on the network. We experienced that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Yeah, well, I mean, I would say that just in general, it's not even a bad thing to do as a business because it's one way to keep costs down. So I like that late show. I like Scott Van Pelt as a personality, but I don't believe that if I suddenly took Scott Van Pelt off of that and did a form of the same show...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
that the larger entity of ESPN would be harmed any more than it's already harmed by whatever it is that you think the defections or the loss of quality is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Not what I said, not what I would ever say. I would say that if ESPN chooses to make its midnight flagship something that it's pouring all of its resources in, because one of the things you guys just said is, oh, he's got the greatest guests. That has nothing to do with Scott Van Pelt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Like that Scott Van Pelt is being put in a good position to have maximum support and resources and do that better than most people have ever done it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Wow, that's something to say there, even as I admire all of his gifts. Why did they show my fist pump?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Yeah, I think so. Got a couple of top five lists for you here on college basketball-related content. What are you shrugging your shoulders about here, Tony?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
We did a Sunday show that was not zero zilch. We did three hours on Sunday to talk about the tournament.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
It's called the seventh day, but... No, Sunday is the end of last week. Sunday is not this week. That's how it feels.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
You say the calendar, and I'm saying what's going to come back on this poll is that Sunday was last week, that Monday is the beginning of the week, that when your work week starts, that's the beginning of the week. I don't care what the calendar says. Your boss says get to work. Monday's the beginning of the week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Your boss overtakes the calendar and all of time history to say that Monday is the beginning of the week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
generally the sentiment during these times i don't care what the fact is i'm going off the gut no no i'm polling is what i'm asking i'm making it a democracy on the internet that's what i'm asking you and i'm just asking that's a good bold question and wait till you get shocked by everyone's gonna say monday everyone's gonna get this one wrong even though you say the fact is this everyone's gonna go with not the fact uh let's go first to chris's top five list what is your top five list what is the subject matter
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
All right. Any OLIs here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
All right. Are there five great sports Thursdays, Zaslow? I don't think. That's why there are no OLIs. I could think of. I think there's some. I think you can, yeah. You think you can come up with six.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
No, you can't ruin his list. There are only five. I'm not totally sure how he's going to get to five. You better not leave any of mine off. Well, I don't think there are six. So let's see what his number five is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Yeah. Do you have a sixth one?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
It fell on, it's 6 a.m. on a Thursday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Oh, next Thursday. Okay, so not the fake opening day, the real opening day? Yeah. Okay, and Tony's top five list is just five players to watch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Which is different from what I said.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Okay, it didn't sound like you liked it. And not everyone is going to be watching the tournament, not even most people. And you say a lot of people are going to be watching. But when it comes to Earth, it's not even a lot of people. But continue.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Well, there isn't like I saw John Oliver do a piece last week on sports betting. And one of the things that he did was point out, among other things, that people are betting on ping pong and betting on ping pong in Poland.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Right now, what we're talking about today in college basketball, there's nothing quite like this when it comes to gambling, which is a whole lot of people gambling on something that they know very little about while doing it because it's just sports is happening and on my television, what I'm tuning in for is just action with my money. It's not necessarily that I care about St.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Mary's or Virginia Commonwealth or know anything about the participants.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I don't think it's the most reckless you can be in life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
It is often the case. It's not the case for everybody. But in terms of concentrated, I don't think there's anything like these two rounds here at the beginning where you're just inundated with action all over the place. Olympics were pretty good. That was a rush. See, now I don't think of that as the gambling event that this is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Do any of you feel some of the dirty that you feel at the NFL Sundays at the end of the day where you've just been in your house watching something on the couch or in a bar?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I have not been to Vegas on Super Bowl Sunday, so I don't know if there's anything that compares to what is presently going to happen in Vegas as soon as this thing kicks off. But in terms of a sports thing, the two things that I have felt that are strongest in Vegas is heavyweight fight, when that mattered and you had a heavyweight champion that people cared about.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
and what this week is in the sportsbooks because it's just an insanity. Oh, and 9 a.m.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
That's not a real name, is it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Is his name actually Money? It's got to be a nickname. Did his parents name him Money? You don't know. His mama called him Money.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I'm not sure his mama calls him Money, but okay. Mike, look that up for me. I'm building out my DK. Okay, perfect.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Just Sparty. I think you're doing that, and my father would do that. It's a Cuban thing, yeah, sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Do you know where Con Canuple plays? I like saying that name, Con Canuple.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
That is good. That's excellent work. I remember somebody at Sports Illustrated, there was a wide receiver named, I think, Marte Jenkins, and he was saying that the difference between Marty and Marte is the difference between a party and a partay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
White guys. Backdoor cuts. Okay, but we already did con Canumpa. Where are we on this?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
He's a white guy. He's giving you a paragraph. He was highlighting part of the secret sauce. Wait a minute. Chris isn't supporting what's happening here because I just – Chris muttered – I don't think this was on the air. I think it was just to be – He rolled his eyes at one point. He didn't just roll his eyes. What I heard in my ears is him saying, great, a stat on every guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
One of the reasons that I like Florida in this tournament so much, I think against Auburn, Alabama, and Tennessee, they were 5-1. That team, I don't know how you feel about this. I'm excited, yeah. How do you guys feel about this? Because Zaslow, like Udonis Haslam, identifies as a Miami guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
But has a certain allegiance to Florida when Florida starts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
He's going to be a good pro.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Well, I noticed this and you made it about railing. Against community colleges.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
The thing that you did is that you deflected from me saying that you're a Miami fan, Miami through and through, right up until the Gators are good at something, and then all of a sudden you're orange and blue. Well, I'm allowed to. It's my school.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Again, though, you identify as a Miami person. And to me, it feels wrong to identify as a Miami person and then have this undercurrent of traitorous orange and blue.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I am a Miami person. You publicly present. I've lived here my whole life. As you are Miami first. Yeah. And I don't know that these two things are allowed to coexist. Why not? I'm from Miami.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
at the university because miami people hate university of florida people that's how that one works and so you and udonis haslam are the rare few that i point to and i'm like those are mixed allegiances be careful what you say about us as someone that is a hurricane fan that didn't go to the school too i have the utmost respect for people that went to other schools yeah how about that i'm an amazing miami hurricanes fan i went to uf and i still root for the hurricane
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Well, when my school's good, I show out. Okay, but that's what I'm objecting to. What I'm objecting to is how bandwagon that is. That's okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I wanted to ask you guys, I do not watch and have never watched any reality television. I'm going to have a hard time saying to you guys in my entire history or in the history of reality television, I'll be... someone who has trouble naming. Like you never watched the real world? Reality shows, no. I never got into any of that stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
However, I am interested in something that I feel like the grand majority of people are not interested in, at least in part because they find the subject unlikable. The Alec Baldwin reality show on Max where they're showing you the innards of his life when his wife presents as Hispanic but isn't Hispanic. They have seven kids and six animals and he's OCD.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
So about cleanliness and stuff, that's a bit of a nightmare to have seven kids, six animals, and be OCD about cleanliness. But they're also in his life as all of this stuff happens around him where he's killed somebody and is headed to trial because on the set a gun went off and he was holding the gun.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I have found, I'm only a couple of episodes in, and I've found it interesting, but I think that a lot of people realize really don't like Alec Baldwin for reasons ranging from arrogance to politics to behavior with the paparazzi and stuff. Doesn't seem to like being famous at this point, but... To me, being in that man's life at that time, like really in his life, is interesting viewing.

Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Where are you guys on this? Because I don't think many people are watching it. And when I brought it up before, no one's interested in talking about it. And I'm not sure why.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I'm interested in Alec Baldwin. I've been interested in Alec Baldwin. I'll tell you why. I read a long profile on him many years ago when I thought of him as a very accomplished actor and a bit of a movie star. And he was saying in the article with Uncommon Vulnerability and Self-Awareness, I failed as a movie star.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Hank Azaria would say that after Birdcage, what famous people get who have a hit movie or show like Jeremy Piven or whatever is you get three chances. They'll give you three movies, and Hank Azaria chose Mystery Alaska and Godzilla and something else. It's a good movie. and then never got to be like the star principal again.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Jeremy Piven got this after Entourage where he got a couple of chances and then didn't get more chances after that. Alec Baldwin was talking about himself as a failure and the awareness of it made him someone I'm interested in. I bought his biography. And his wild arrogance is also something I'm interested in. But the rest of you, just find him not likable. Aaron Rodgers is running into this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
These reports yesterday about Aaron Rodgers is having all sorts of trouble getting any media jobs as a possibility as a fallback to retiring because the executives being quoted are calling him insufferable. There's a likability factor that you kind of need if you want people. This is what Scott Van Pelt has where you're talking about I enjoy spending time with this person.

You can catch Zaslow on ESPN Radio, and something that I've noticed, I noticed it this morning when I was... Go on. ...downstairs, that on ESPN, one of the anchors on ESPN, I did not recognize, that happens a lot to me, but looked extraordinarily young to me. And the thing that I wanted to talk to you guys about is... is if the highlight show is endangered and if the sports anchor is endangered.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
Because we have sports that we consume through highlights. The casual fan observes through highlights. The NBA chief among them. But observing it on highlights on your phone or through your social media is different than having to go to your television. And I assume... I don't assume.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I actually know that throughout the industry, everyone's being asked to take pay cuts because media is shrinking, media is in trouble, and there are fewer jobs in general than there used to be. And as a practice, ESPN makes sure that the four letters are the thing that matters the most and that other parts are interchangeable or disposable, I think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: That's What's Best For Business
I think Scott Van Pelt is so popular that ESPN will continue to pay him. But I also know that if ESPN lost Scott Van Pelt, it wouldn't be some sort of seismic thing just because in general, the sports anchor is less valuable throughout ESPN.

Look, we've knocked it out the park with both of our NASCAR interviews. They both went so well, Iceman and Maverick. Maverick went so well that we actually once again forgot to play Vroom or Vroom Vroom, which is a game that we've spent a lot of time in pre-production for.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
So we need to find another NASCAR driver named Goose, preferably, and play Vroom or Vroom Vroom because these are really good questions.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
What is Vroom or Vroom Vroom? I'm glad that you asked. It's a game that we play with our guest. And Vroom is just like, oh, you know, that's okay. Vroom is like, meh. Yeah, I kind of like that. That's all right. But Vroom Vroom, I really like it. You're in on that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I love that. I'm good at that game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
Well, it doesn't make sense with you guys. Well, are they just racing questions or are there other questions? No, no, no. They're not questions about racing whatsoever. Wow, that's how you get them. But that's how you get them. But you don't, I mean, it went so well. NASCAR drivers as personality types, by the way, have come a really long way since I was a kid.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
And it's something that these teams, they look for because his schedule is insane. With all these events, I mean, when you think about sponsorships in sports, a lot of people think about NASCARs. They have obligations for like every single one of those on race week. They're doing interviews moments before they hop in the car. They're doing interviews while they're racing. It's pretty crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
And they have to be good at it now. They really value that. You have to essentially be an alien from another universe. You have to be like Verstappen level to not be marketable.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
Well, it's stock car racing. So they kind of legislate parity within the sport. Some teams have more resources, some teams have charters, and they've been doing this a long time, and some teams are just better when they build out better pit crews. But what I'm trying to get at is there's not a lot that separates these drivers. because all the cars are meant to be kind of equal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
You have faster cars, no doubt, but they're meant to be equal. In coaching, what makes a great coach, I imagine, the distance between, hey, can this guy sell our program? You don't care about that so much. Give me the best coach. Give me a tactical advantage. Yeah, give me some guy that can recruit, and maybe his team is good enough that the program can recruit itself.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
But in NASCAR, you need the total package. You've got to be a good driver, absolutely, but you have to knock these media availabilities out of the park.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
because we're trying to grow the sport and people forget like NASCAR is an immense weekly property you get four million people tuning into a race on average so far this season that dwarfs the NBA when it comes to appointment television on the weekends when there's not NFL football going on it's this right here NASCAR so you have to essentially be a CEO of your team because you're often representing them in public and you have to try to win new people over constantly
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
My favorite driver, Kyle Larson, is probably one of the weaker talkers of the big drivers. And that's because if anybody—Kyle Larson won a dirt track race last night, and now he's headed to Homestead. He's the guy that is like Verstappen level. You have to be— an insanely talented driver to overcome deficiencies in marketability.

I think there's something about the hiring process that kind of diminishes that aspect of it. It's such an incestuous business, such a networking-based thing. Guys, they have their career arcs. They get taken from one staff to another, and it's just all who you know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: What'd You Say? (feat. Ryan Blaney)
Yeah, but it's just that they're not often, when you get to the high level of running a big-time program in college basketball, they offer you the job.

It's been a hard luck season for the 12 car this season so far. You've been having good cars and just, well, I guess the sentiment can be expressed best by Cal Shiesty on X when he tweeted out, can't wait for Homestead where Blaney will lead the first 266 laps and then get struck by a f***ing meteor on the last lap.

It wasn't with this community. I know people feel a certain way about Jimmy, and I understand if you're a passionate Heat fan, you don't like the way that went down and you don't like what he did.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Is he going to be able to separate the reception from the fans from his feelings about the organization? Does he take an opportunity to show that he doesn't care? Does he just blankly stare, which I think is probably a likely outcome?

Listen, boys, we got to talk about Jägermeister, a go-to guy at home, at the bar, or maybe even out at the rink. A drink so ice cold, it deserves its own video tribute at every sports bar across North America. No trash talk, no running its mouth. We love the confidence on them.

Ice cold at zero degrees Fahrenheit, to be exact. Ice cold shots of Jagermeister. That's it. That's all they want to tell you.

Not before one last episode airs. A tribute to Tony. And then we just do what we're doing right now. On loop.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
Who gets the ball first? That is the answer. Because if he gets the ball first, He's got a chance because Meech hasn't played in how long? A long time. Right, out of shape and everything. Out of his mobile. And Tony's a good shooter, so also he gets to step back and take Meech out of his comfort zone a little bit. True. But if Meech gets the ball first.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
But that's assuming that Meech gets the ball first. If he doesn't miss. I'll tell you, Dan, I'll tell you a story. My buddy Andrew Schultz, years and years ago, challenged Jay Williams.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
I do like the whistling sound of the cartoon bomb dropping. Coyote? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
and I will still beat you. And sure enough, Schultz got the ball first, he missed, and then what I told Schultz was gonna happen is exactly what happened. Jay Williams, you think of him, oh, he was a point guard, he's not doing any of that. He's taking your ass to the block and boom, boom, boom, layup, every single time. So he scores six straight points like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
On the seventh one, because he wanted to be disrespectful, he said, I'm a setback, And as he's dribbling, he throws the ball off of Andrew's head. Off the easy. Hard. And the funny thing was, Andrew, after maybe his first or second bucket or whatever, Totally spent. This is a guy who plays pick up all the time. After two buckets of Jay Williams just ground and pound, he was done.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
He was like a boxer. He had jelly legs and everything. But throwing the ball off his head woke him up somehow because Jay catches it, perfect rhythm, puts up the shot, and it rims out. and Andrew grabs the ball, and now he's energized. His pride is in there. And he hits him with his signature Hezzy dribble, puts up a bullshit shot that bounces and bounces and bounces and drops.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
He ended up winning, but it was not because He could guard or he could beat Jay Williams. It was because Dave Williams had hubris and he wanted to disrespect him on top of John Do you have hubris?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
So also, funny, funny, funny story. I once played pickup ball with John Amici. You don't remember this. This was years and years ago at Arizona State. You were in town.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
And so we played. We were on the same team. And it was great because, oh, I've got this NBA player. Man, he's passing the ball a lot. That's great. Like, I thought you were going to shoot every time, but you didn't. You also shot almost exclusively jump shots. Yep. Right? But then we were on different teams. And so I said, this is what we're going to do.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
We're gonna put, you're gonna put me on the worst offensive player. And then I was just hard double every single time. And for me, it was like, this is the pinnacle of defensive execution. And for me too, it was like, I just wanna get a workout in. Just run up and down the floor.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
Dan, this is the old line from Airplane. You try dragging Walton up and down the floor for 48 minutes and then get back to me. Like, this guy's running around with Shaq and these guys. You think a 10.0 on the treadmill is real hard? No, but a 10.0 for an hour at this size.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, this was my defense all along. There is no shortage of people that I've played basketball with in my life that you know. Some of them NBA players, some of them NBA coaches, some of them are NBA media. Oh, come on. If I ever shot like that, hit him with name drop. I didn't name drop anybody. There are no names. No names. No names.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
Does it not make you feel slightly queasy when you watch it, though? No, because I took it and I made it into something even greater. I did. I made a video that went crazy viral.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
I don't know. That's the whole point. The whole point was, before that shot, Meech, I'd shot three or four from that same spot. Oh, you can't do that. No, no, listen to me. Let me tell the story, right? All right, all right. This is like the fourth or fifth shot from that spot. I'd made all the other ones. The guy who recorded it was like, oh, that's cool. Amin is draining these shots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
Let me get a video. The first one I shot after he stopped recording is that one. And he said, oh, this is even better. Performance anxiety. I didn't know. I didn't know until after the game. This is before the game. I found out after the game, he said, you haven't checked Twitter, have you? I'm like, no, why, what happened?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
And I thought it was because there was a turnover late in the game that I made. I was like, yeah, it was a dumb turnover. He's like, oh, it's not about the turnover. I'm like, oh, then what is it about? And then I saw that, and that's when I realized. It's about that mad shot right there. How's that behind me?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
there. As I watch it, I always think to myself, I think I was trying to get it back. Like, no, no, no, come back! You know?

So this is the part that I'm curious about. Kanye West was pretty much always that person. Now, he's gotten way more off the beaten path as time has gone on, but many people who knew him 20 years ago, 25 years ago, like, yep, that's who he's always been. And we just didn't know the mass public, right? Or we didn't get the full grasp of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
Was Aaron Rodgers always like this and we just didn't know?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
So that's my question, though. Some people change. Legitimately change and unravel or whatever. Did he unravel or was he always like this and he just had a great facade?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
of a crackpot. John, I'm curious because, again, you work with a lot of people in this regard. What is the long-term impact of the pandemic? I feel like people change. That thing changed people in a way that I didn't feel impacted. It sucked and it was a boring time and a scary time. But I don't think about it much now. And I feel like me in 2019 is pretty much the same as me right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Aaron Rodgers Enigma And Tony's Nestling
But I feel as I go around, I see these videos of people freaking out on airplanes and just acting a fool in public. I feel like the pandemic changed something in people, like on an emotional stability level. Do you experience that or is that just kind of anecdotal?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Dan, you said Ricky texted you that. Is that Ricky Martinez who gave the gift yesterday?

It was great. But if Joel Embiid had suffered your injury, he'd be out for three months.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
How many of these minus do you get? Even A's tone was very good there. Excellent tone. Also Joel Embiid. But I was laughing a lot because, no, Joel Embiid's super soft. It's a fact. But every time I watch Stephen A. Smith, I just marvel at how good he is at this. He's incredible. He's incredible. He's got papers in front of him, but he's reading it better than anybody in the biz.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
That was as insightful a take on Joel Embiid that I've heard. And I'm not speaking for Sixers fans. I'm just speaking for myself here. I truly don't resent Joel Embiid for being hurt. He's dealt with a lot of legitimate injuries. I think where the resentment comes from the casual sports fan, the casual NBA follower is, I resent you for sitting out to avoid getting hurt. Because he does that a lot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
There's a huge chunk of this percentage where Joel Embiid is not on the court because it's a part of a maintenance plan. And I think Stephen A. kind of spoke to that in that, OK, but you sit out to avoid getting hurt, but you're just going to get hurt anyway. So just go out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
I also watch him play, and I know his proclivity to get injured, and I wonder aloud, then why are you flopping around throwing your huge frame on the floor? Why is this a part of your game? Because it is. It's an annoying part of Joel Embiid's game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
If you're so susceptible to injury, why haven't you eliminated that part from your game, where you embellish to get calls because you're a gigantic guy falling on the hardwood?

But it's been that way since we've ever started having company parties. That's just always been the policy. Like, I walked into it, and I just assumed that there were no plus ones. And then I saw Izzy broke that rule, and I was like, oh, damn, this is going to be a fight. So it wasn't.

Oh, I thought that was like a shoe. I thought it was like twerking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
And in closing, I think another thing that Joel Embiid falls victim to is, okay, you have this frame that's susceptible to injuries. A lot of the Philly frustration is, then why don't you take care of your body more? Because his conditioning is constantly under scrutiny because You're always unhealthy. Why don't we change up the conditioning plan? Why don't we do something different?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

It feels like a straw man. That's not one of those finesse teams. Everybody knows. Straw man. That's been Tennessee's identity for a long time. They may not be good, but they're going to be tough to play because they're a tough team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
Dan, if I may, isn't the implied gambit that we understand they're tough. They're playing football, a game of real estate acquisition. But by comparison to other teams, they are soft. And if that is indeed the gambit, then it's a fair accusation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
I guess I've watched football long enough that I think I can tell which teams are tough and their identity is we are more physical. It's something that you know when you see.

Yeah, I don't know. Like I said, grandfathered in. I walked in with the expectation that there were no plus ones because ever since we've been a company, there have been no plus ones. So it wasn't even a topic of conversation.

You know a great moment from last night? Because, yeah, some of you guys were doing the shotskis with tequila, which is insane. The pickleback is the greatest shot known to man because you take your shot of whiskey and then you immediately hydrate yourself with pickle juice. Now, Greg Cody, I happen to know, loves pickles and pickle juice. He had never had a pickleback in his entire life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Titans Soft? Feat. John Amaechi
In his 215 years on this planet, he had never indulged in a pickleback. And I ordered him one. And as soon as he knocked back the pickle juice instantaneously, wow, where has this been my entire life? It was just an incredible moment.

Sam, why did you guys ever think, I got a buddy of mine, he's a Grammy winning producer who's a huge Nick fan like you. And he was literally researching all the different ways that the Knicks can, quote, unquote, make it up to Hartenstein. And I'm like, you don't understand. He's going to make a gajillion dollars. It's a no-brainer. He's obviously going to take the money. No, it's different.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Sam Morril Misses Mitchell Robinson
It's different. Like the power of friendship and all that stuff. And the first opportunity he had to take the money, he got the money. Why do you guys delude yourselves into thinking things like that? Like people are going to go against their natural instincts.

Hour 2: Sam Morril Misses Mitchell Robinson
Well, I'm curious because yesterday, Dan, I don't know if you know, the Knicks played a game and they had to go to overtime to beat a Sixers team that was missing a lot of good players. And I wonder, Sam, take us inside you watching a game like that. Are you an eternal fountain of positivity? Like, come on, guys, we got this. Hey, the Sixers are tougher than you think.

Dude, when Sam did the South Beach Sessions here last year, I confronted him about it. I was like, how can you root for a team with an owner like that? And he gave me the most political answer ever. Oh, yes. He's bought and paid for. I was like, oh, man, they got to you, too.

Dana, I saw one of these things be bandied about on the internet. The expanded playoff makes the regular season meaningless and it makes upsets like Northern Illinois super meaningless.

You know what he did, right? After he beat Marcus Freeman, he's like, hey. I'd love to give you some tips on how we beat you. And he gave him the whole playbook, and then Notre Dame's been damn near unstoppable since then. It's a little unfair.

Great coach. Oh, dude, I watched that press conference again last week when he was asked, like, so why did you take this job? And he goes... You kidding me? Oh, man, I love that guy so much. And I think, look, he's been very good behind the scenes, almost too good and a little disingenuous about like not knowing the full scope of the sanctions. It's completely untrue.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Dan Le Batard Looks Like...
He knew, but he's very good at putting that out there that he didn't know so much so that he's convinced everybody of this, even though it's completely untrue.

Didn't go great.

Became the greatest head coach of all time. He's done so much, and you can learn from your failures. And Al Golden has certainly done that. And, dude, this guy was, like, coaching tight ends for the Bengals. Like, he was an afterthought. It never felt like that guy would amount to anything.

Oh, I've been happier at least two dozen times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I venture to say it's not even that interesting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I thought it was the seventh. I mean, there's a bunch at Augusta. The 17th hole at the Waste Management, the people make it. Oh, yeah. That's the hole. The people make that hole. Yeah. But this is particularly challenging. This is where championships are won and lost. It's right before the tournament wraps up. This hole is always of consequence. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I mean, I get plenty of people venting about Musk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Really? I was going to say it's easy. Medieval. No way, matey. Yeah. Arr. No, I can't get away with that in a fancy restaurant.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
But you can also be an affluent one. You can't really see an affluent pirate. Or a noble person. Pirate is, there's no nobility in being a pirate.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
No, I'm just thinking the fight scene in Cable Guy.

Tetas? It's more of a classism in medieval times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
We have dramatic moments in golf that have happened here. A lot of illustrious winners in this one. And it's really when players round into form because Gus is around the corner. This is when the guys, and there have been some questions in golf. Scheffler was straight up on fire to close the season last year. A little bit of a struggle to get going.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Give me a key when it comes to medieval, because I just asked ChatGPT to give me a medieval person talking about last night's Knicks game, and it gave me a whole script.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
The contest of last eve was most enthralling. Yeah, that'd get really annoying. The knights of New York did battle against their foes with great vigor.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Yet their defenses faltered as their castle walls were laid siege by the most fearsome force.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Though their archers of true of aim did misfire. Bang, matey. That's much more fun. The balladees sing of missed opportunities at the free throw line.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Whilst the enemy did rain down three-point volleys as they, now I'm doing, like I said.

I think you're just doing a me thing. Because you're off on this one. I'm a nobleman. I'm playing a nobleman. It's in the name.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
One of the things that I got my eyes on is guys that have remained active during the quieter part of the season. Yeah. with TGL and whatnot, they're actually sharper in these tournaments right now and performing quite well. You think he could three-peat on this? I mean, I haven't seen the form. Sheffler in the field, I'm going with the field. I haven't seen the form there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Yeah, but Clippers actually do set sail.

I've got to see him lock back in there. There are guys like, I like what Rory's displayed lately, Keegan Bradley, Clark. I mean, he was a house of fire to close the final round.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Possible operator error. I'm just saying. You're the one that's pulling. You're the one that's pulling. I'm going to wear this one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
This is on me. But the fact that it's still in there, it should have been tossed. That's true. I'm saying, operator error. You went through them earlier this week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
So we have checks and balances, and the checks and balances fail. Yeah, I did not know. So it's more than one person's fault.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
The guy from Pawn Stars? Chum Bucket and Captain Slappy. Captain Slappy? Yeah. It was a running bet. Like Bobby Valentine on Valentine's Day. Oh, my God.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Golf is one of those sports. Look, I don't really know what goes into a good golfer other than the score, right? So one of the things that I've seized on in taking action is just making sure and building out my daily fantasy teams is who's in good form right now? Because form in golf tends to stick around for a couple of tournaments.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
There was one in Orlando. I think it's still there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Orlando had the... The American Gladiators thing.

If you want to have dinner and a show, what better than Medieval Times?

Comedy was different back then. Laurie Markkinen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Well, they're back at it, because that's how we got the Fire Nico chant. A rollicking good time, I say. Scotty Barnes. There's only ten locations. There weren't unions in Medieval Times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
So maybe Scheffler can start anew, but I just need to see better form from Scotty Scheffler.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Look at Scheffler.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
You're right. The players.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Only at the players. The players. The players. The players. The players. It's a beautiful course to watch on television as well. Yeah. It's just the game pops, the Island Green specifically, but this entire course pops. The weather is always immaculate this time of year at TPC Sawgrass. It's a pure joy to watch this tournament.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
You're guaranteed better weather at this one than you usually are for Augusta because that's a little further up north and occasionally... The weather can get a little wonky up there. This is certainly way better than the British Open, which is essentially just taupe. You're constantly fiddling with your settings on your TV. That's where golf started, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Golf should not be played with 40-mile-per-hour winds and your knees deep in the rough. It's just a terrible viewing experience. You can't even work in a proper golf nap. TPC Sawgrass, it exists for the golf nap. You'll take the golf nap. Players. You'll take it from like 7 to 12, hole 7 to hole 12, and then you're good. You don't miss much. And you still got 17, the island green ahead of you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
You're going to have to clarify.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Not really one that I thought you would do.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You're out there every weekend, right, man? I'm rich.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Down the middle Roy, by the way, has nothing to do with politics. It's his golf game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Is the one in Jim Nance's backyard? Without the wind.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Have you ever played this hole?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
You're absolutely right. It's the players' major. Yeah. It's the players' championship. This is one of the most beautiful courses in all of golf. Best hole in golf? Yes. The Island Green. The Island Green. It's the only hole in golf that I have immortalized in a T-shirt that I bought. 17 at TPC Sawgrass is special. It's where tournaments are won and lost.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
You have to also apply the fact that punching up or down is very subjective.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
You'll get the occasional electrifying hole in one. This is a beautiful course with a beautiful hole. You have it on a t-shirt? I do. A long sleeve, navy blue. Might have been green. Might have been the day to wear it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I mean, he has regular platforms, and I do think it's still early in this. We're not even two months into the new administration, but Bill Burr was held up by the right often during the last administration. In fact, his Netflix movie was championed by the right for its themes, and he was always kind of held up as someone that would push against this cancel culture. So he's equal opportunity.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I just think it's a little bit magnified because the left is chasing now, and he's always kind of remained the same guy.

Listen, boys, we got to talk about Jägermeister, a go-to guy at home, at the bar, or maybe even out at the rink. A drink so ice cold, it deserves its own video tribute at every sports bar across North America. No trash talk, no running its mouth. We love the confidence on them. Jägermeister sent us an ad to read on the show, but they're so confident they said, don't do any of that normal ad stuff.

Ray Hudson's the greatest color commentary voice for me, at least based out of America. Europeans can have their opinion. But readily available... voices on the biggest games. If you wanted to watch La Liga when Messi and Ronaldo were going at it, the soundtrack to that was Phil Shane, who worked at 790 with us as an update anchor at the time, and Ray Hudson.

Ray Hudson, who has roots in this community, dating back to the Fort Lauderdale... Fort Lauderdale striker. Was a great manager for the Miami Fusion, as he liked to call them. So he is a South Florida guy, even though he's from Europe. But, yeah, Ray Hudson, to me, that's an all-time GOAT.

This is why you have an inclusive workforce. It's not the only thing that looks bad in Spanish. You know what? Matter of fact, it's not the only thing that's problematic. The entire division of the AL West is problematic when it comes to this type of hat.

The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
But that's not what they're being referred to as.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
They are presently, I asked David Sampson this, and I think Dwayne Kuyper got, had, there was a threat on awful announcing where he was just beside himself. And by the end of it, he was just like, F it, they should be the Oakland Athletics. They're playing in Sacramento for a couple of seasons here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
So they're not in Las Vegas, so you can't refer to them as the Las Vegas A's. You can't refer to them as the Oakland A's. It would make sense to call them the Sacramento A's, but from a branding standpoint, that's a little confusing. Las Vegas is also a sponsor, so they have a patch on the jersey. The city of Las Vegas, their tourism board took out ads there. They're just the athletics.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
What do you mean? Athletics.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Tell the listeners two things. Jägermeister is great, but everyone's been drinking it wrong. Damn, that's cold. Well, how should we be drinking it? They're so glad you asked. Ice cold at zero degrees Fahrenheit to be exact. Ice cold shots of Jägermeister. That's it. That's all they want to tell you. So wherever you are, if you're hanging out with friends or at the bar, call the shots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
Understood. Well, they got newlywed Jimmy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
No, no doubt. And I'm kind of rooting for that narrative. It's all right. You can kind of know more if you're plugged in as to what actually happened there. And give yourself over to the narrative and be happy for the guy. I do hope that Heat fans kind of rally around him and root for him in the playoffs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
It ended so ugly and it was so counterculture to how the Heat operate that maybe that's not going to happen. And it's unfortunate because that guy, given his performances in the playoffs previously, especially in this uniform... I want them to get the title so that can't be held against them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
I'm interested in attending that game. When is it? The 25th.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
Oh, it's a Tuesday? I can make that. Yeah, I'll give them a standing ovation. I hope they do the tribute video. I guess that's a bigger question. They will do the tribute video. They're not doing the tribute video. Dude, the Heat are classy. That's why we need Dan's reporting. 100% they do a video. They got to do a video. 100% they do a video. That is so petty.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
I hope they're not even entertaining that. You've got to be the bigger person in this situation. He's a legend. He deserves to get his jersey retired. I understand that it's a conversation for another day. Whatever the problem is between the organization and the player, that's fine. This Heat fan base has a relationship with Jimmy that I think can see past how it ended.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: We Just Delivered The News
And you give him that moment. And if it turns out to be booze, let that happen too. But you give the opportunity for the fans to speak for themselves.

A round of ice cold Jagermeister shots. Damn, that's cold. Because apparently, we've all been drinking Jägermeister wrong. Well, how should we be drinking it? We should be drinking it ice cold.

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

You guys didn't let me do my thing. No, man, you didn't let me do my thing. Did you know about Doug Christie? That's crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
I don't know who that one is. In the trade. He was a guy with a nameplate. Because you didn't watch the game last night. Because you don't watch the damn games, Mike. You have no idea. Max Christie had his nameplate removed while he was giving an interview. Yeah, I know that guy.

So to win that game in advance of the semifinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup, they needed to win that game against a good LAFC team 3-1. And I know Messi catches some crap sometimes because his style. He walks around. What's so hard? Not last night. 96 minutes of that dude trying his damnedest. All game long. That dude cared last night and he put that team on his shoulders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
I don't remember where I was for that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I remember where I was for all these games. Where were you? I was watching the game at home. I was in the stands. I was living with my grandparents.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
I don't remember where I was specifically.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Yeah, I was at World of Beer, and I was so pissy. Was that Bruiser Room? The Kendall one? Yeah, dog. I was so mad. That was such a great local spot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
I was watching the game at home. I remember watching the game at home. I can't believe they left Kevin Love on an island against Steph, and he held his own.

It was a wonderful game. Honestly, hand to God, Among the most fun soccer games I've experienced.

You know, the Tri-County area, they're mostly owned independently. So we don't have to worry about the bankruptcy one because I can tell you. That Doral one ain't going anywhere. Yeah, the Doral one's strong.

Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
No, no, no. There's two more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Most scared I've ever been leading up to a game in my entire life. I straight up haven't been able to shit the same way since.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
We all did. We all did. His house, though, Greg.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
I'm a soccer sicko. There's something about this competition in particular, which is really difficult for American teams to win. It's been around since the 1960s. It's really mattered here in the United States for probably 30 years. And famously, Mexican teams always win it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Wow. Yeah. I wasn't even watching the game. And then I looked it up in my Metro PCS. I'm like, how can I find clips of this? This was a top three with filler.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Thank you. All right, Greg, you go. Nothing to cough at.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
You know what? I didn't understand that the list would invoke when basketball was actually good. I have one. You saw the vision, right? You see the vision.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
It is really difficult to win this competition because, randomly, you'll have something that happened a couple of weeks ago, which is, in Miami and your whole team, you've got to go over to Jamaica and play on a rough pitch in weird conditions that you're not used to. It really challenges those MLS teams. This one was an MLS team against an MLS team, no doubt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
No, it's clearly and obviously. Shazam movie. We're all revealing we did not listen to Pablo's episode about this. No doubt. No doubt. I guarantee you, you all remember where you were the first ever XFL game, too. No. You don't?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
No, it was. I mean, it means a lot these days.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Yeah, I do. Do you remember where you were when Dale died? Who?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
No, I understand. And there was a really funny moment around like minute 94 where you're screaming at your TV. What are you guys doing? Just hold the ball. There was like a three-man weave of Jordi Alba, Luis Suarez, and Leo Messi. It's three on one. And they are gassed. They got it. Nothing. And in 2015, that would have been a surefire goal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
There's an incredible toilet bowl hack that we can teach you with Fabuloso. Really? Yeah, yeah, you put it in the tank. You cut out a little hole near the top of the bottle.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
In 2025, it's just hilarious to watch when those guys are on fumes. But the effort was there all night. That is a massive undertaking. Yeah, they get lucky with a handball in the box that draws a pen. Messi takes a brilliant pen against Hugo Lloris.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Yeah, and keep in mind, Messi had contributed. He had scored on a free kick that they called back because he took it too quickly. And he had scored, he had assisted on a Luis Suarez header because Suarez was a bit offside. So he scored a wonderful goal, a goal that few people on the planet can still do right now with how he dribbled through traffic.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
This was what you wanted to see when Leo Messi came over to the United States, was him put an MLS team just on his back and decide, you know what? I'm that much better than everybody. I'm not going to let my team lose today.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Many are saying it's right on top of that area. But this is a game that prior to yesterday. Greg, you were arguing that this might arguably be the biggest game in Inter-Miami's history.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
It's not one that was just microwaved like the Leeds Cup.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Oh, he was, dude. He was rightfully exhausted. They don't have the legs that they used to. And MLS will rightfully catch a lot of crap. But it is an athletic league. There are big, strong, fast dudes in this league that are faster than Messi.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
But I do agree with Greg that Messi is underregarded right now because, as you'll see in international competitions even next year at Dollars and Donuts, he's among the top players. Top 15 attacking players still on the planet right now. People are right to hold against him that he's doing this presently in MLS.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
That being said, when he goes away on international break and plays for his country, he is still the talisman for that. He is still every bit the Messi that we saw a year and a half ago.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
I haven't really seen a drop-off in his form when he's healthy. You could say that, well, he's less available, and that is an ability, but he was just dynamite last night. And the thing that really jumped off for a player that is often scrutinized about his effort level because of how he approaches the game, I would argue he's always been smart about conserving his energy. That was not the case.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
It was palpable. The desperation, and it's pretty cool because... It's not like we're, yeah, Stu Gatz will criticize him saying soccer is dead and there might be people that only pay attention on the media side to have a go at him for not winning this trophy. But the fact remains, he's won two trophies already in his two seasons down here in Miami.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Quietly also, and Moscow asked about this, there is ambiguity surrounding whether or not he's going to be back with a team next year. Jorge Mas is being asked these questions. His contract allows for that ambiguity right now. He's won two trophies. There's only two other trophies available to him. He's in the semifinal of one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
And I guess MLS, what'll happen is we'll just play whack-a-mole and the one trophy that's not left for him to win will be the one that we'll decide is the most important. But I will say, historically, for great MLS teams, the toughest trophy to win is the competition he was playing in last night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Now he caught, I don't think it's a break because Vancouver's had a really difficult path in this competition, but he doesn't have to play Pumas, doesn't have to go to Mexico, but he will have to play a semifinal leg in Vancouver and then fly all the way back to get to the final, which will undoubtedly be against a Mexican team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
No, no, it's not. And for me, the most encouraging thing about this entire experiment is Busquets was suspended last night. He was living and dying. Suarez cared. Jordi Alba cared. Messi cares. Walking off the pitch, I saw Olivier Giroud for LAFC. I'm like, he played? I had no idea.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
Oftentimes, this is a league where people just go to coast and retire, and Messi could have done that after winning the World Cup. It was the one thing that people were holding against him, and he did it on the grandest stage. He carried his team in an all-time game. He comes over here, he doesn't have to care that much.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
He's at the end of his career, and he freaking cares, and it was really cool to see.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
And it delivered on all the crazy CONCACAF Champions Cup antics. Fouls that would be red cards anywhere else on the planet were warnings, were yellows. He absolutely got pulverized. It was assault that happened on that pitch when he had a counterattack that would have been a surefire goal. This dude Marlon just absolutely flattened him. It led to a scuffle on the field.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Another Big Moment for Dallas
It was really compelling, dramatic stuff that maybe...

Yeah. Lionel Messi. Doing great things. Coming back from a crazy aggregate deficit. They lost the first leg at LAFC 1-0. And then in the first 10 minutes of that game last night, they went down 1-0. Which not only put them behind on aggregate 2-0, but it gave LAFC something that Inter-Miami hadn't had. which was a road goal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
It's honestly something that college game day should monitor. Because what people love so much about college football is this tribalism, this fun that's associated with it. And it's veering off into Surlytown where we're not having as much fun and we're just complaining about fans the entire time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
And we're saying that the games are bad, even though we're the ones that air the games and hype the games up and have hour-long specials telling you, hey, these might be the games in a couple of months. So it's something that everybody should monitor.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
Yeah. I mean, I get you. And social media is, look, it's toxic. And it seems as though the algo is just going to make it more and more toxic. But I'm not really... I'm at the level of disinterested where I didn't really start filing my complaints on social media about baseball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
If I'm asked about it on this show, I'll tell you my stale take on that, even though I credit them for making the changes that I was asking for. Basketball, I'll catch up. If my team's good, that has a lot to do with it. I'll follow back up with basketball if the Heat ever become good again or they fix the things because I have no interest in watching these top-level games.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
I haven't thought about that name since like the first 15 minutes of reaction in the morning when we found out about the story and we all moved on. I think the silence on that front either indicates a lack of interest from people wanting to find out or probably an admission where, you know, I don't need to get my set. Let me just hope this goes away.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
Wait, wait, I have a question about the Lamar Jackson thing, okay? Oh, okay. Lamar's got plenty of MVPs. He may now have more MVPs in playoff wins. But that Ravens team offensively is loaded. Loaded with first-round talent. In the offseason, they add Derrick Henry, who's a unicorn of a talent. All Buffalo did their entire offseason was strip talent away from Josh Allen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
And in the big moments, they won because of the plays that he made. As a treat, they gave him an Amari Cooper at the trade deadline. For me, it's Josh Allen. Maybe it might be Jordan rules, Jordan MVP fatigue, but you got to give it to Josh.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
No. Like, do I have to sit through a commercial? I don't want to do that. I'm not that interested. Like, this guy's made a lot of money in his career. Even though he played well, like, it's pretty clear what happened there. Was playing a lot. Was upset that another guy was playing over him. Seems to be at the end of his career. And that's just how he goes out.

Hour 2: Mina Kimes and Greg’s Eyebrows
Antonio Brown, fascinating, because for a lot of different things, different person, well-known, the way that he did it, but also the notion that he still had plenty of good football left in front of him. People learned his name through this story, so I don't think people care.

No, you can mix in a loss and then everyone at the table, we still got it. It comes right back to you. Everyone defers and goes right back to you.

TSL over here. Soda. Lime. You know the deal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it. Dan can reveal it. I'm not doing it. Time to be a storyteller.

Labs. Speaking of labs. I haven't forgotten about it. Speaking of labs. Are you trying to get a dog? Or is this a blood lab?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Yeah, it's not just you. There's articles that share your story because you revealed it on the air before on our show. And then it occasionally gets brought up and your name gets invoked as one of the ones.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Justin Blackman? He was good for a while. One of the great John Brinkus sports science episodes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I feel like I'm getting sent Taylor's under there so Mike Ryan sent it in the group chat but what it was an article about who's written the article someone put in like Woody Page he put out a tweet sorry to all the frats out there that take a shot every time I screw up something to that effect and then I was just reminding people I'm like This is out there on the internet. I report, you decide.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
All right, but I'm the shit stirrer. Hold on. I didn't know he was going to go to air with it. I was just telling my friends, hey, did you know this? Was it an article? Yeah, yeah. I linked the articles.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
He had the catch radius of a two-car garage. Oh, yeah?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
He's actually broadcasting a highlight. He has his own network. Yeah, Brink TV. Yeah, he has his own network.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Imagine Quentin Tarantino doing an interview on BET. Oh, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Repeated denials from Woody Page.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
This is not the first time Dan has revealed this on the air. It's just been a good 14 years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
09 was different. Different Dan? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
This is why we don't have Splash Mountain anymore.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
But he did the article as if Dan wouldn't pick up the phone. Hey, was Woody through town? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
And also, just projecting, DK's not going to have the longevity that Tyler Lockett had. Big-bodied wide receivers, they come crashing to the ground carrying their own weight. The way that Roy Williams just went from one day to the next. Like, big-bodied receivers, this happens.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
That sounds like... This is a time for, like, a victory lap.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Which one of the three of you did this?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
All I'm doing is trying to change individuals' opinion of Woody Page, not the masses. Dan knew it would get to racism. And it's going to get picked up on way more than it did before at a time that it's really unfair to Woody.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
No, absolutely not. He did that shit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...

It's me, obviously. Tony's a, yeah. He's a lead investigator. That's a terrible question.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Yeah. Oh, too soon. Who's the most famous person at your funeral? Is it the big guy? At my funeral? The big cactus. You think this regional legend?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
It's a festival headliner. He's lying.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
That feels more racist than hyphen.

No cleats inside, come on! Ich glaube nicht, dass ich das schon gesehen habe. Jemand, der nur Assistent und Head Coach ist. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass es der Head Coachs Assistent war. Aber ich glaube, er hat es falsch gelesen.

Well, falling in love, marrying a sex worker, and she's always very quick to correct people, and whether she's right or wrong in that regard is... A running joke throughout it.

Ich war eigentlich wiss, nachdem wir das Musikal gemacht haben, und ich dachte, das ist ziemlich gut für das, was es ist. Du hast Tiktok-Musicals, die über seine Grammy-Nominierten gesprochen werden. Wie ist der Prozess? Wie bekommen wir die Leute, diese Formel anzusehen? Es war ein kommerzieller Erfolg. Es war Nummer eins auf iTunes. Es ist ziemlich gut. Wir fühlen uns stark daran.

It's more meta than just trying to get Parasite or Onora to win Best Picture. It's an investment on trying to become what Miramax was, what A24 is, certainly more than die Neon gerade ist, eine Tastemaking-Studio. Wenn ich A24 auf der Titelkarte sehe, bin ich eingeladen. Ich vertraue diesem Studio, sie machen gute Sachen. Ich vertraue diesem Studio, es ist ein Tastemaker.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I think we're in the middle of the sea change right now. You're seeing more cost efficiency. And you're actually seeing what people have been clamoring for. Because I think we did reach critical mass on IP and franchises. And a lot of that was... Die Marvel-Produkte wurden einfach so verschwunden.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Tony Applies To Be UM's Assistant Football Coach
Das waren Tentpoles, die die Box-Office-Industrie gehalten haben, die Leute in Studios gehalten haben. Und als die Qualität von denen diminuiert wurde, sagten die Leute, was sollen wir tun? Und das ist der Grund, warum ich so viel über den Horror-Genre spreche. Denn diese können für kleinere Budgets gemacht werden und du kannst wirklich kreative Geschichten erzählen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Tony Applies To Be UM's Assistant Football Coach
Und Neon findet Möglichkeiten, das außerhalb des Horror-Genres zu tun. Und ich denke, dass das der neue Modell sein könnte. Und ich denke auch an deinen Punkt, es ist immer noch Unterhaltung.

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.

What's the definition? If he led the team in receiving yards, that makes him the number one receiver. Doesn't it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Show With The Regional Legend
Those are two different Hall of Famers. Four separate seasons, he's led them in receiving yards.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Show With The Regional Legend
He's a former center. You're saying DK Metcalf is their number one receiver. DK barely edged him in 2022 and 2023. Barely edging.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Show With The Regional Legend
Tyler is the second most prolific receiver in franchise history. He's second to Steve Largen in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns. That's the only person he's behind.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Show With The Regional Legend
His reputation is greater than Tyler's.

There's Cheez Whiz, slices of steak, bread in it. They just smashed a cheesesteak into a vanilla ice cream shake. And as someone that had the chicken wing shake, that wasn't bad. It had a piece of chicken. It had buffalo sauce in it and celery. That actually worked. There's no way this works.

No, you were really good for the Browns. Thank you. You were. He is a luminary. And also, he stuck around the franchise. He had an opportunity to go to New England. He's like, no, I like the bad shit.

I think my surprise there is Mac, if they're looking at their pass rushers and they're looking at aging, diminishing products, I know Mac had a good year last year. It was a good bounce back year for Khalil Mac, but he's older.

thinks that the Miami media is unfair to the Heat? He thinks the media is filled with inaccuracies, things that aren't true. Wait, he thinks that he's... Finally. Wait, Mickey Harrison thinks that the local media that covers the Miami Heat is too inaccurate and too harsh?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Yeah, I remember a very public instance where Mickey got involved and said that the media had it wrong. It was with Shams. When Shams said Jimmy Butler wanted out, who was wrong there? Shams, the media, or Mickey and the Miami Heat? So I'm trying to I'm trying I want to follow the inaccuracies of the unfair media to the Miami Heat. If it's not on the local level, it's on the national level.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Well, that was one big national media story that he got directly involved with. And factually, he was wrong. He went at the guy with the most journalistic integrity and the best accuracy record amongst the insiders. And he was wrong. That wasn't unfair. Shams was right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Thoughts and prayers for Tyler Hero. He had a vicious head cold. Wow, that's scary.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
He's got AIDS. You guys got it. No, that's not what I'm doing. Okay. That's not what I'm doing. It sounded genuine.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
No, we're talking about... No, I'm talking about Mickey. Mickey? Because when Sean started reporting, Mickey and the Miami Heat and Pat Riley put out a press release. They were very aggressive in that this is not true. Right. Even Bernie Lee got involved. You know, playing both sides.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Dan is right to point out their rotation is bad because they're bad. But their rotation is bad because they're holding out Tyler Hero for head colds because it's pretty obvious what's happening here over the last two games is – I think the Miami Heat and its culture are trying to tank.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Don't tell me what I am. There's still holes. The one public gripe that I know that Mickey took exception to about the media and its coverage being lies ended up being true. Jimmy Butler did want out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
He was upset about the show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
No, he's got a Twitter account. He's spoken for himself on this front, and it ended up being wrong. Now, he may turn around and argue, well, at the time, I was right, but you went at the guy that once reported Trump had COVID before anybody else.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
As I understand it, even when they were cooking, That was the case.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
You're reminding me of something where I think Mickey Arison has a point. Because after the trade, was it in the athletic? The very pro-Jimmy Butler kind of spin, POV, on what went wrong in Miami that I thought was very unfair, invoking his father, having known behind the scenes exactly where the Miami Heat organization met Jimmy on those things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
I think that's right for Mickey to have a gripe with how that was presented.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
What if it's a convenient thing to hang on to for Jimmy Butler's camp? Because the Miami Heat were very considerate of Jimmy when he was going through that and well after. This is something that is dragged on and was once again invoked when this thing happened a while ago.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
If I may, this may be a crude view on it, but the things that we're focusing on right now as a result of that piece that was very slanted in the direction of Jimmy Butler, that's what you brought on by putting your backups against the wall and saying, this is not true. We're going to keep Jimmy Butler.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
All of this mess is what you brought on yourself by not capitulating on the Jimmy Butler thing when you probably should have a year ago, or over the summer when he was saying purple and gold looks good, or when the Shams report came out. At every turn, Miami was stubborn and said no, and at every turn they made the wrong move.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
I think we're overanalyzing. Sorry, I mean, what we're talking about right now is the Joker, Jimmy, walking away from the hospital that's blowing up behind him. He makes a mess when he wants to get his way out. He got his way, and Miami is still dealing with the mess.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
No, but if they also, when they made the decision that they weren't going to pay Jimmy. If they had moved him? If they had moved him there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Jimmy's father died.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
That's a great point. I'm just trying to get a clearer idea of the gambit. In the history of South Florida sports, three people showed you what greatness was? In sports. Let me see the insides of it. Okay, because of your relationships there. That's right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
I know the way that I want it to end is someone that's been critical of their approach over the last couple of years, even coming off of the NBA finals, which feels like a crazy outlier. It ends however Pat wants it to end. He made this franchise relevant. He's won three titles. This is probably, this isn't that bad. They're still in the mix for a possible playoff spot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
And I would say in terms of like a vibe check, this is probably the worst it's ever been. And that includes the year that they were tanking for Beasley or Derrick Rose. It's really bad right now, but he deserves all the time that he wants to get it right. And if he decides that he wants to bow out gracefully, he's entitled to that, too. There is no one here on this show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
And I don't even think it's a real good faith argument on the Internet. You may find like an egg or two on social media. But I think South Florida is pretty much a consensus opinion that Pat Riley gets to write the end of his story however he sees fit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Just because Jeremy was so quick to correct me that they won their last game. Yes, they beat the 12-win Wizards. Yes, they did. Congratulations to them. My apologies.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
They took the lessons from it. They had to change the dynamic of their team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
I know we're microwaving some of the discussions that we've had since then, but it's been a while.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
That's another name that could have been invoked around Miami. I think this is just the longest stretch of time. And since they acquired Jimmy Butler, which was majestic. They acquired Jimmy Butler with no room and no real assets, and it was an amazing coup in getting Jimmy Butler. Ever since that acquisition, the blueprint has always counted on getting someone better than Jimmy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
They just admitted last night's game into evidence. I was going to say that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Allen was hurt when Mitchell Robinson went through the Cavs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Is he under it? This is not like Matt Eberflus in Chicago. This is a very charmed existence that Pat Riley's had as this has been predictable in that it was predicted on this show. This is the wrong course of action. You got it exactly right. Yeah, but a lot of people did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
You were wrong. You sounded like a moron for two years. That's crazy. You sounded like an idiot. It was impossible to be wrong. We're here. You don't still push back. This is unbelievable. You're Terry Rozier right now, jacking up threes from half court.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
You haven't watched a game in the two and a half years since the prediction started. See what I mean? Matt Iberflues didn't have a Jeremy Taché. Iberflues never had a Jeremy Taché.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
The offensive numbers are a little confusing, but defensively, it's there. He's taking pressure off Steph.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Watch Terry Rozier, the defense rest. No, I didn't. I watched the two-minute highlight reel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
No, the defense rests. can get word in edgewise. So why would I even argue? Why would I even argue? Yes, I would maintain that I know more about the Miami Heat than someone that actually watches them every day because I've been right every step of the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: So... What Ever Happened With That Jimmy Butler Situation?
Everything that I said was going to be bad turned out to be bad while you were there at every corner telling me, no, it was actually going to be good.

Yeah. Give him a look at Reed Leroy. That's what he wants. I like how you play your audience, too. I didn't feed into it because I'm like, all right, I like what you're doing, 4.7. I get it. You know how to read the room. He's a Louie.

Can we look up how many black guys in the MLB in the 70s were named Leroy? Because I feel like there was a lot. I feel like the name Leroy was probably at its height in the 70s for black men in America.

Hour 1: Domonique Ruins The Interview (feat. Steve Williams)
It was the thing, man. That's where the money was, though. You've got to follow the money. Jackie Robinson could have probably been a Hall of Fame football player.

Let him be accountable. I'm working. I am locked in. It came out today. I got a text while I'm on this show that I'm on the list. I have not seen. I have no idea who else is on the list. That is so cool. It's an honor to be nominated. I'm just honored to be listed with all the obstacles that I've had to go through to get to this point. Mike, you understand. I do. At the buzzer at 39.

Hour 1: Domonique Ruins The Interview (feat. Steve Williams)
Or the phone. I'm going to not prepare the speech, and then about 40 minutes before I speak, it just comes to me. Good. That's how I am. That's obnoxious. No, it's not. It's when I do my best work against the clock. I get some funny in there. I find the energy of the place. Make sure this is relatable. Get the people going a little bit. Quick, short, and sweet, and get out.

They're all bad teams. The good teams don't get away with this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Here's the list of teams, Dan. The list of teams that did not score more than 30 points in a game. The New York Giants, the Las Vegas Raiders, the New England Patriots, the New York Jets, and the Kansas City Chiefs. One of these things is not like the other.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I just hope that they're thinking about it as much as we are. Yeah. If the bold chase, and I don't think it's not exactly not bold of them to decide, let's keep this unit together. I actually think that's kind of brave because four years in that sport is a very long time. Four years being told you're not good enough by the same team, losing pretty much the same way in the postseason.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I mean, that would wear on you. And I just hope that it's not just assumed, yeah, let's just run it back. Let's bring everybody back. We'll finally get these guys because you're already in uncharted territory in terms of not being able to get those guys.

We have a question for you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I'm not bringing it up. You're the first guy to the plausible take. Like, should they look at the head coach thing? And you're muddying the waters with this Belichick thing. Like, you have to. You have the good take.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I'm never really impressed with him. His decision-making in some of these games has been hot and cold. I don't know, dude. Like I said, I hope they're having the conversation. And I hope it's not just like, yeah, we're going to run it back, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Running it back, right, looking to a room full of people that have experienced the first type of successive failure in NFL history, that seems insane to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I think I know the answer to this, but when there is an important play that needs to be called for the Buffalo Bills. Most times, it's Josh do something, and the ball stays in Josh's hands. We know with Patrick Mahomes, even at this age, his go-to guy is Travis Kelsey. Now, I think possibly the go-to guy for Josh Allen right now is Khalil Shakir, but Patrick Mahomes' guy is an all-timer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I feel like, yeah, no bad ideas. Tyreek Hill, T. Higgins, who's available? Who's unavailable? Let's get crazy. Let's throw everything for Justin Jefferson. Something crazy, something good, something game-changing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I understand mentioning Tyreek Hill as a possible solution is inflammatory, and you've done well to seize on that. But I'm saying we're close. We're right there. It's something that that franchise has famously dealt with its entire history and what it's known for. And I would say they need to have a conversation, ownership on down, buck stops here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
What can we do to make sure we're not even getting a shittier version of what we got in the early 90s?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
They have to pay Rousseau, who might be in the conversation for highest paid guy on the defensive line in the league now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
the limit is endless it's no it's easy to say we're right there because buffalo's not alone in saying we're right there hell a team that missed the playoffs in cincinnati can argue and they've actually had success in the postseason against kansas city and baltimore we're right there baltimore we're right there you got to keep those guys away because the gulf between those teams is shrinking and you have to chase down the greatest of all time potentially

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Yeah, that's why I'm a little confused by it because you always speak to the gladiator spectacle of football and the gridiron. You're, you know, a cyclone of menace and horror. You're so good with words and there is nothing more true. about that than a short yardage situation where it's will against will, mano a mano.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
On Championship Sunday, every single short yardage situation was captivating. Because these... believed that the team could actually stop it. In the regular season, bodies don't find the willpower on the opposite side to put up a fight.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Now, Washington was doing very creative things, trying to time the snap down, and it was very clearly getting to Philadelphia, so much so that they switched up the cadence, which led to hilarity, basically a 15-minute down.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
We'll fix that part.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Yeah, I do think so.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I'm sick for him because, like I said, he'd be Mahomes. It's not a championship. It's not a Super Bowl appearance. And it's kind of like Dan Marino in that everyone realizes this guy's the frigging man. He's awesome. He's not the problem. It's everything else. And everything else is largely somebody else. One individual that is just a little bit better at it. Just a little bit more clutch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Even though he's been pretty damn clutch and he's made the throws, his surrounding cast hasn't been as clutch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I was really following the take, and I really liked it before we went off into crazy land with Belichick. Really?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
the mcdermott thing like like it is something that you have to consider no we've seen sports teams realize pretty emphatically like we're just not good enough what are we gonna do to drastically change this situation all buffalo did in its off season to drastically change its situation was get rid of offensive talent like there are recent examples grady little being you know
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
not brought back Paul Maurice being in a Matthew Kachuk trade for the Florida Panthers because they realize in a small window like we're never going to get past those guys unless we do something drastic Buffalo is at that point where they have to do something drastic are they Because they keep doing the same thing. What is the very definition of insanity?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Yes, but I would say that... Losing four times in a row to one quarterback is drastic. We've never seen it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I just don't understand where the Bills go when they have their postseason meeting and they all get together and their board of directors try to figure out, all right, what went wrong? The same thing went wrong again. Run it back? Like, extend our record of being the only team to lose to this team this many times consecutively and just hope that the math will work out for us in the postseason?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
At a certain point, you have to try to take control of your own destiny and do something about it. So at least you can lay your head down at night and say, well, I tried something new this time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Yeah. Certainly. That would help. I would. Maybe let's put some shoes on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
The answer was do more. Do something different. Change it up. Don't have the talent overall go down in one offseason when you're trying to chase this team like it did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
I also want to give credit to Kansas City as we just like try to wonder aloud. We always give them credit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
We just picked apart a true point that, you know, top corner was out injured. Let's not omit the times that Patrick Mahomes had a really bad ankle and he still found a way to not only beat them, but beat Philadelphia in a Super Bowl. Let's not forget the time that he got knocked out of a divisional round game against Cleveland and Chad Henney had to make the plays down the stretch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
They also got the benefit of a targeting penalty that didn't go against them. There should have been a touchdown that might have changed the result of that game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
You could, you could argue doing, doing nothing and just hoping that your, your luck changes is, is a move, is a calculated risk. But I would say that these are desperate times now for Buffalo. You look at the playing style of your quarterback. You look at all the comps. He's constantly compared to Cam Newton. A guy with that big of a frame that leans so much on his athleticism.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Do The Bills Need To Do Something Drastic?
Granted, he can throw the ball, but we're nearing the end of the window where we can count on that same sort of physical advantage for him. So if these are indeed desperate times, there's a cliche about that and what it calls for.

The average fan doesn't root for historical greatness. The average fan roots for their team. And if you're a fan of almost any team in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes has beaten you in the last decade and you're sick of it. You want him to lose. That's how it ends up with the Patriots. At first, I was like, this is annoying. This is annoying. And then the Steelers kept losing to them in the playoffs.

If you've got the storylines around that AFC championship. Yeah, it was enough. And it delivered. Those two teams always deliver. It's always the drama. It's like I'll never get sick of hyping that game between those two teams because it always delivers on every single one of the storylines.

This is how we fix the Chiefs fatigue situation, by the way. Someone just hire Spags as your head coach.

No, then I would have Bill's Chiefs fatigue.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
Right, so the Chiefs should agree to not be in the Super Bowl so they can play the Bills one more time and potentially not be in the Super Bowl. Correct.

You guys are, like, shitting on the NFC side of this. I thought the Eagles game was pretty good, pretty interesting. Saquon Barkley is really freaking good.

That's how you have to do it, Buffalo, around Josh Allen. And I know the contract's going to make it tough. It's made it tough for Patrick Mahomes, and he's found a way. Also, kind of funny that Patrick Mahomes is on the Chiefs because of a trade the Bills made, and Xavier Worthy cooks them, and Xavier Worthy is on the Chiefs, not the Bills, because of a trade the Bills made.

Billy, we did it on air.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
Here, Billy, I'll debate something you said earlier. I don't think Josh Allen just chucked it up. I think he knew there was a receiver down there. If you look at the replay, his eyes are downfield. He's trying to find an open guy. And the pass was pretty good, too. Kincaid was sort of awkwardly turning. It was low. You couldn't catch it, and I feel bad for him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
I don't think it was anything like the Mark Andrews play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
Did you describe it as cyclones of menace and horror?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
And also his fourth and five. So if you throw up behind the line of scrimmage and he doesn't get the first down, the game's over anyway. So I get why he's looking downfield there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
I have a bold take. I'm the man standing up in a crowd meme. I'm super into this Super Bowl. The one that we saw recently was one of the best Super Bowls ever. The line is already telling you, keep an eye on it, by the way, that these two teams are very close. The Eagles are a totally different team since their early season struggles.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
They've found this new explosive run game where I think you're accurate. It is a bit of a hot take because it'll get like picked apart but Jalen Hurts is probably of all their skills as skill guys the least impressive the least good at his job it's an unbelievable matchup the guy who said just run was London Fletcher I mean that does give it more credibility right he's holding it too long

They are inevitable because they're not just always going to make the right plays. They're not just always going to, on both sides of the ball, do what they have to do to win the game. But also, they've got the friendly whistle, too. And they've had it for like seven years. It's just... In every game. It's a bummer.

It could be entirely possible that this is a Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers to Jordan Love situation where the Eagles just have generational center after generational center. Yeah. But a couple months removed from him stepping down and getting all sorts of media opportunities that we've never seen a center in the NFL ever get. And they're much better at running the ball.

Is that what Marcus Lattimore does now?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
This dude's a problem. He's just always fighting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
Yeah, I mean, Lattimore was at Ohio State and certainly in New Orleans. He was incredible. And now he's moved on and he's gotten kind of like bigger. And I don't know if he's just overcome. He was always physical, but now he's just really overcompensating because his body can't quite do the same things by just trying to be really powerful and mixing it up with big, strong guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
And like there was that that stretch where there's maybe like 35 seconds of game time where Philadelphia scored the 14 points when it was a one score game. And Lattimore is just totally out of the game in his own head. He's playing his own game with A.J. Brown.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
He just totally short-circuited. And he was brought in to be a soothing, veteran, calming presence there for that secondary. And the guy's just having a crisis of confidence within his own body. He's just overcompensating by just going crazy.

I know this is a weird market to do this in. I've noticed from my group chats that a lot of people don't feel bad for the Buffalo Bills because they're Dolphins fans. But I woke up like I haven't hurt for a team that I haven't had a connection to like this in quite some time because Josh Allen and this Bills team gets to be historic losers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
Sadly for that franchise, it's not the most known historic loser. But it's not like they choke in these games. It's not like you can pick apart his performance. He plays so well every time he goes up against Patrick Mahomes, and they still come up short.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
And we didn't obsess over this over the watch long because there's so many things going on and we're not here in the feed and I'm not monitoring social to know what a big deal it was. He got that first down.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
How does that happen? I mean, the angle from behind him made it seem obvious when he just needed to get to the pronounced line over there. But I think what stings the most, and you can see Josh Allen wearing it in his postgame, is it's not just a Super Bowl appearance for that market and his legacy. It's not even one potential championship.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
Mahomes is literally standing in his way from being Patrick Mahomes.

Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
And think about the last two eliminations in the postseason. Josh Allen made the play. Kincaid can't make the play. Diggs can't make the play for him. He makes the throws in the moment. And to even come up with that throw after what I can only describe as a satanic disguised pass rush from Spaggs. It was evil.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
what we saw, and Josh Allen still found a way to get the ball off and find a receiver.

they they're they're you can root for that type of underdog from that market that that scrappy team and their playing style so when you juxtapose them from the other team that's just so likable maybe they become unlikable but i'm not there yet i wanted to see them lose someone made the point yesterday that we just went from like a dynasty to another dynasty with no break in the middle the last time that we saw an afc championship without the patriots or the chiefs was 2017 like

But when you look at some of the stuff that Gobert was taking off the plate of Carl Anthony Towns, he was able to kind of make him into a three where he didn't have to really worry about playing defense.

In closing, the only issue that I have with Gary Furman... Stop! is that he took out Peter Ariza's reporting, which was credible for several weeks. This was an airtight job of reporting by Cain's Insight to come out and say that it's untrue when you're the person that reported John Gruden to Miami, not me.

What'd you do to him? It was like a 15-year-long grudge. He didn't find something. I was like, you weren't that great defensively at second base. He's like, you know what? Blood feud forever. At third base. Third base. Yeah. No, no, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Mike Lowell vs. Gary Ferman Race For Charity
I criticized his ability to play second base because he was an emergency second baseman during a season and he took it really personally, which I have apologized for. There's probably more to it than this. No, no, no. That was it. That was it. He's like, I'll take crap talk from you, Levitard, but Mike, no way. And that's pretty much where we left.

Anyone with a herald would. Different standards. Right. And we wear the biases on our sleeve, and you can say that's not traditional media, traditional journalism, and you would be absolutely right.

You've got to have X's and O's. Look, Laraniga succeeded at the very beginning of the NIL era. We brought in a lot of talent via transfer portal, and he had a lot of success with X's and O's.

No doubt. Is Steve Young a backup quarterback, or was that always the plan?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
Yeah. It felt like they acquired Steve Young, who got off to a rocky start in Tampa Bay, to one day be the guy. So to call him one of the great backups, this is a guy that was drafted high. I wouldn't do that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
You can't call him a backup. No, you can't. If you're acquiring a guy to one day replace a guy, that's not really backup. We're talking like Scott Tolzien's.

I do. I do. I like to correct people when they say I'm a journalist. No, I'm a media member. It's different. I don't necessarily have to adhere to the same type of rules because I'm a booster and I wear that conflict on my sleeve proudly. I will say, though, while I had something to do with the overall reporting of this story. This was reported by Peter Arias from Canes Insight.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
He was on this beat for several weeks saying that it was trending towards hiring Jay Lucas from Duke. When it came to the actual reporting of this, Canes Insight followed every single journalistic protocol, went over and above because there's sensitivities here with this specific hiring. Look, Duke and Miami still play this season. We're not to the ACC tournament yet.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
It's not often that you see this type of announcement when the other coaches are on a staff that actually has title aspirations. So there's some sensitivities here. And we were well aware of that. It became apparently clear that this story was going to get reported. We had already sat on it for quite some time. This was non-invasive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
We made sure that all the parties knew that this story was coming out when it was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
Well, okay. We're here now. What I didn't appreciate was Gary Furman saying that my company's reporting wasn't true when it 100% is. And look, we've had 48 hours now for all the parties involved to deny that this is actually the case. It's not. Jay Lucas is going to be the next head coach. Gary Furman continues to push on Kane Sport that this story is not true, no offer is out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
But if you actually click the story, he even admits that he's doing the current athletic department a favor by not reporting this. So, like, the headline is... click-baity, and it's going at someone's credibility. When I actually put the journalism hat on, I'm not wrong. I'm very credible. You mentioned Messi. We broke the Mario Crispo story over here. I say we. I did that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
But my credibility, you don't call that into question. It's fine if you don't have the scoop, but to come out and say that it's untrue when I know how sound this is and I know what my resume suggests... I wasn't a fan of that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
That was quite the hesitation. That silence lasted 20 minutes for me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
That wasn't the report, that this hiring is official. The report was Miami has selected its next head coach of the men's basketball program. It's going to be Jay Lucas.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
Look, it was clear we had a very clear jump on this story. We had better information than anybody else. We often have better information than everybody else. And do we go into news-breaking mode all the time? No. Our approach is let's... really build our company on how plugged in we are. Sometimes it's not totally advantageous for us to be breaking news because we maintain our relationships.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
This became pretty evident to us, and I understand where Dane Redikovic is coming from because it's a little complicated if this gets out. It was going to come out. So, do you want some slapdick to report it? Or... Do you want to actually let the people that have known this story for 48 hours come out, non-invasively, make sure everybody's all right and go out there and do it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: In The Information Game
And that's what we decided for the better of our company. And we did everything right from a journalism standpoint.

Coming off of a couple bad playoff weekends, this was a good playoff weekend. Including the college weekends and those because the college football playoff weekends were dreadful.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
At what point do we start sort of looking at the Texans? Because they make the playoffs every year, and they've never seen a championship game. Now, in their defense, I can't ever remember watching a Texans game where I thought they're the better team and they should win, and they didn't. But at the same time, the Texans make the playoffs every year, it feels like.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Because of that terrible division. But they never win.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I think that the Texans... So, like, it's similar to the Steelers, right? The Steelers get there and then are out early. But the Steelers have, obviously, you know, a great history and a very passionate fan base. And I am putting myself now in a bad position and I don't want to be, like, enemy number one of the Texans fans. I feel like part of it... is because they're the Texans.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You know what I mean? Yeah, I get it. So it's like, ah, we're kind of just happy to be here. Like just two years ago, they were terrible before they had CJ Stroud. So it's like, okay, like we're, we're still kind of winding up. I think one, I think next year might be the year that if CJ doesn't get a playoff win, it starts a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It's like, okay, CJ, like we're making the playoffs, but now we need to, we need to win in the playoffs and,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I mean, everybody knows going into, like, when they start releasing when the schedule of playoff games is going to be. You get to circle that Saturday, that first Saturday, 4 o'clock game. You know that's going to be the Texans. You know they're hosting that playoff game because they're the team that they're just like, all right, I guess we've got to put the Texans in their usual slot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And then they're done. And it's like, okay. Congratulations. You made it to the Saturday playoff game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
They won a playoff game this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I know, but they're never a threat. We never talk about them like, oh man, who's going to beat the Texans? Even when they're good, they're... You're not – you've never seen a championship game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Coming into this season, it felt like we were going to see some of those games in the regular season where it was like, oh, Texas is going to be hard. And then, like, they had so many injuries. And TJ wasn't as good this year seemingly as he was last year. So, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I mean, the thing is, is the AFC, like, I just – what are the Texans going to have – this is not where I thought we would be today, but what are the Texans going to have to do in the AFC –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
to become a team like that because the chiefs i'm not gonna say are kind of you know on the way down in their dynasty but if the chiefs lose next weekend to the bill spoiler or if the bills beat the ravens if you didn't watch any of football but you're listening today that happened we'll get to that in a moment
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But if the Chiefs lose to the Bills and don't make the playoffs, while they will fail in their quest for the first three-peat ever, I don't think it will be entirely surprising if they don't beat the Bills. And I also, and this sounds weird, don't think it's a failure of a season for them if they don't three-peat and win the Super Bowl. Because while they had the best record in the AFC season,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
they snuck by a lot and it felt like they were just kind of hanging around for this time. It's like the weird, it, I guess like the way you think of like load management in the NBA is what the regular season felt like for the cheese, but somehow they still won all of those games. You know what I mean?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Like it felt like we were kind of just cheese for coasting through the regular season and then come playoff time, they're going to turn it on. And by the way, Anyone who's worried about Travis Kelsey, you're an idiot because he was incredible, incredible in that game to the point that it was almost negligence by the Texans to let him be so open so often.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I couldn't believe how many times in that game Travis Kelsey was just standing wide open in the middle of the field.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It almost feels like we got cheated, like he could have been doing this all season. Like, could he have been doing this all season?

GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Load management, I'm telling you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And he just decided, I don't think you're wrong. I think they were just like, hey, here's a really good play where Travis will be wide open, but we're going to save this for the divisional round because there's just no reason to use Travis Kelsey until then.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, yeah. Do you have any more thoughts on this? You want to move on to the next game? Because you were just saying about saving plays. Ben Johnson pulled out a play that shocked everyone that I don't think anyone had ever seen. And he was putting on a show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
For any team that had interviewed Ben Johnson, the way they were doing some of these trick plays, you're like, oh, that could be mine next year? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
oh okay let's do that it was such the the story of trick plays where he ran two or three of them in the game and the first two worked really well there was that one where they pitched it to david montgomery or then did a shovel pass and you're like oh this is amazing that was that was that was the play i like where you're going
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And then he does the other one where Jameis Williams just throws an interception because he's Jameis and Williams. And throws an interception when Jameis and Williams should A, not be throwing, and B, should not be throwing in that situation. And you're like, oh, this is a bad day for him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Can I tell you the rollercoaster of emotions I went on? Sure. First trick play that we just talked about, I was like, oh, okay, we're showing off. And then the second one, I seriously turned and I said to no one because my wife was not paying attention at all. So I guess I turned to my wife and I turned and I said, guy's going to cost himself a job on that failed trick play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Mikey and I don't want to betray him here bit of a coffee snob very much and he was talking to me and realized coffee not super huge down here in Miami we got some Cuban coffee in fact I will tell you this and this is I don't want to do like the whole thing where it's like Miami is the only place that says this but
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
i don't think it's super common i guess it is but like we will refer to coffee as american coffee like like everywhere like no that's american coffee just because like we have a lot of cuban coffee down here it's like do you want american like i'm like i want coffee and they're like american coffee like yeah american coffee so if i were if you just plucked me down right in the middle of miami and i said to a random person where can i get a coffee
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Would they send me to a place where I can get an American coffee or a Cuban coffee?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Depends where they send you. Is American coffee the way that it's it's described in a lot of places? It might be. I'm just unfamiliar.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I would imagine a lot of like when I'm saying like you never say American coffee when you're getting coffee.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No, no. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I don't think, yeah. Hartford area, Connecticut, I don't think there's a ton of Cubans up there. No, I'm not sure there's any. I mean, if they work for ESPN, maybe they're in the, you know, area. Who knows? The Commanders and the Lions game. Best game of the weekend. I mean, Bills. The other two were so good, too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
god bless football mike yay god bless football billy gill uh hello everyone hello world it's monday january 20th 2025 here we are we made it look at us We made it through another round of the NFL playoffs. It is National Championship Day. Martin Luther King Day, too, by the way. Happy Martin Luther King Day. We had a big weekend of sports. We're going to try this morning.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
These three games that we have to talk about, so Rams, Eagles, Commanders, Lions, Ravens, Bills. They were all very good, and they were all very good, I think, for different reasons.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I think that the Commander's Lions was like the shootout with not the best defense. Jared Goff, multiple interceptions, coming out party for Jaden Daniels. If you haven't been watching him all year long, you're like, whoa. Who is this guy? Ooh, actually, I'm adding this to my list. I have a big loser for the weekend. Winners and losers. Presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Please drink responsibly. You know what? Let's just do this right now. Winners and losers. Presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka. Please drink responsibly. The first loser of the weekend. Stugatz's friend, Joe Shane, because for the rest of time, for the rest of time, Joe Shane is the GM of the New York Giants.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
For those of you who don't know, and he knows Stugatz because they were part of the same country club. Joe Shane, for the remainder of time, every time Jaden Daniels has a big game,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
We will see the clip of Hard Knocks where his, I believe, teenage son was telling him, you should really trade up to get Jade and Daniels while he's going around and asking all of his children on the weird Hard Knocks that we've never before. It was basically Hard Knocks Joe Shane. We just put a camera in Joe Shane's office and see what it is that he's up to in the offseason.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Kind of like creepy, if we're going to be honest with you. So it's just kind of we're just seeing what it is that the Giants front office. So you can get a good idea of how to run a franchise. The Giants front office is doing in the offseason. And now we have the famous clip that we've seen over and over again of Joe Shane's teenage son telling him, you know what?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Trade up and get Jaden Daniels in this draft. And he literally says to him, you're only going to get this job once. You might as well try to win. And he says, you know what I'm going to do? Trade Saquon Barkley or let him go. We don't need Saquon. We don't need Jaden. We got Daniel Jones. We're perfectly fine. He's going to be here a long time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Jets fans would trade right now for his teenage son as opposed to Woody Johnson. Wow, could you imagine? Who gets all of his ratings from Madden.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So I think, and correct me if I'm wrong here, Mikey, I think Joe Shane's teenage son is the only person that hasn't applied and been interviewed for a job with the Jets because every single person on the face of earth... has completed their interview with the Jets because we're told every single day someone else has completed it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Some of them in person, some are on Zoom, but every single person is applying for every single Jets job, and they're letting us know about every single... Was Cade McCown the latest one? Did I see him?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Josh McCown. Josh McCown. Okay. Josh McCown. The funny thing about... The really funny part about it is Woody Johnson is paying a consultant firm to give him...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
like names to interview and be part of the interview and i'm sitting here going what are you paying for because they literally gave you a list of everyone ever associated with the nfl ever yeah and they're like hey here's here's the list of people you should look at and it's 19 pages long and uh remember we get paid by the hour yeah so
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
There's two moves by consulting firms, I think, and I've never been part of one, but I aspire to be part of one one day because it seems like quite the legal racket. So there's two moves. There's that move that they pull off where they just give you a billion options. And then at the end of the day, Mike Tannenbaum gets the job or.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Or, and I don't know if you've seen this yet, Mikey, but if you want, and if you're a listener, Google this now at home. Google the old Walmart logo and the new Walmart logo. And I'll give you a moment, and I'll fill.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But Google the new 2025 Walmart logo and the old one, and you will then see the second function of consulting firms because this is quite the magical move that I'm sure they were paid hundreds, if not thousands,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
millions hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars for this move where they basically just highlighted the text and hit bold and then in the little sun looking thing that they have they just made that a little bit thicker and moved it a little bit closer together yeah you know what
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
This is the job I want. This is the job I want. You've changed the course of my life. I want to be a consultant to say, you know what you guys would do? You know what would drive your sales? Bold.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
To do what we normally do, also coming up, we have what is not necessarily the nicest thing that we've done to someone in the past. We have an exclusive interview. Golik will be joining us to preview tonight's national championship game. Stugatz will be with us for that interview as well. And Stugatz did his thing where we had a surprise guest for Golik.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I think the hardest part, and it's like the Elaine Bennis of a job, where it's like, okay, now write 30 pages of on why this is different and why this represents the present standing of the company. And they will just... The new bold look really envisions the direction of the future that this company wants to go in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Because that's what we want to be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It's more... It's really... And notice it's slightly closer together. That represents the unity within the company and within the community and really within America moving forward that we aspire to bring everybody together while you're shopping through our... Exactly. While you're shopping through our aisles, we really...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
unifying front that's why they seem slightly closer together and the yellow we didn't change that that was fine
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
no that was that was like yeah it doesn't say that we want to embrace our past that's part of our we kept companies rich history we kept the exact same colors to not gear too far off of our unified vision and really honoring the legacy of sam walton it's like thanks guys perfect with one eye on the past and one eye on the future exactly right that's why um okay so the lions did kind of what the lions do and they they except for last year and they they blew it
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And the Commanders now, are they going to be not the favorite on the field, but the rooting favorite in the NFC?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Easily.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Up against the Eagles? Is that just like area bias for you? Do you hate the Eagles?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So I think as someone who grew up a New York sports fan, even though I'm a Boston-hating New York fan, not a Philly-hating one, I can't – I'm with them in like I don't like Philly. I was wondering, like, for you, this college football national championship, which we'll get to in a few minutes with Mike Golick, you said, like, there's no good outcome for me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Like, I'm going to have to watch either Notre Dame or Ohio State win. And for me, like, I... It's an easy choice for me. I'm rooting for Notre Dame, even though I'm neutral about Notre Dame. It's an easy choice for me. But I'm looking at the teams left for the NFL, and I'm wondering, like, what's best case scenario for me? And the clear answer is Washington.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But, like, I will be upset if pretty much any other team wins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Huh. So the Chiefs is just you're tired of the Chiefs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It's that I'm tired of them. It's like, and I think Patrick Mahomes is kind of becoming a little bit of a sports villain in like the flop. The flop is kind of the kind of thing where you go, all right, I'm sick of this. I'm a little over it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I will remind you, and I'll say tread lightly, Chiefs Kingdom embraced us earlier this season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Listen, it's not them. It's not even the team. It's fatigue. And I don't think any Chiefs fan would be like, yeah, I don't see that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So the Chiefs obviously are in. The Bills beat the Ravens. We haven't gotten to that yet, but we'll get to that. You don't like the Bills.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Listen, you can't be a Jets fan and be like, yeah, you go Bills.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And if you listen to it, you should know that at the time, if you're listening to the audio, Mike Golick was wearing an Under Armour shirt with The Rock's logo on it. And maybe I led him to believe that it could be The Rock. And then, spoiler alert, and I'm going to tell you because when he comes on and we just say his name, you may not know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, that's true.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Somebody asked me if I would rather the Dolphins win the Super Bowl or the Patriots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Oh.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I just left. I couldn't answer that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Really?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, I just left.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You don't like the Dolphins that much? I kind of thought that the Dolphins were irrelevant to everyone at this point in time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
The Dolphins were the biggest... rival for the longest time. Yeah, but that's a long time. So good. Yeah, like it's it's it's but those Patriots don't exist anymore.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Those Patriots are the past. Yes, that's right. That's why we still use the yellow. Yes, because of the Patriots. All right. Well, the commanders now are everybody's darling favorite team, and they've gone from a team that is playing with house money to a team that now everybody is hoping and praying beats the Eagles next round. I think I think
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I think outside of Philadelphia, I think pretty much everybody, because like even Cowboys fans and Giants fans who are like, I can't root for my rival are like, yeah, but if I had to root for one of my rivals, it'd be that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah. Yeah. I made the mistake yesterday in fantasy. You can compete against us in fantasy. Go to DKNG.co slash Smirnoff. Our fantasy contest is presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka. Please drink responsibly. When we're this late in the game. of fantasy and you only have four games, there's very little variance in who everybody is taking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
A lot of people are just taking the same people. So you have to go out on a limb and, uh, and really find where the hidden gems are. So I thought everyone is going to do Josh Allen this week because, you know, it's easy money. So I went with Jaden Daniels, which ended up working out except, except, uh,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
He was doing this cute little game where he was passing the ball up until the two-yard line, and then they were running everything in. So we were not getting any touchdown points. So while he had a great game, he didn't get me what I needed. Jameer Gibbs. Oh, Jameer Gibbs. Oh, Jameer Gibbs. I thought he was going to carry me to fantasy heaven.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And then I made the mistake of taking Derek Henry over Saquon Barkley because my thinking was, this is my thought process. I had looked in the weather and I was like, Buffalo is going to be a messy game. They're going to be running all day long in Buffalo. And sure enough... It was okay. It was pleasant enough. Josh decided I'm passing today. And he was going to throw also.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So did Lamar to his detriment. But Josh decided he was going to pass today. I can't imagine. And we've now skipped a game. We'll go back. I can't imagine catching a ball in that weather. Because it must be like catching a bowling ball. And Mark Andrews. Oh, buddy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Maybe they should have let the air out of the ball a little bit. Maybe. Some Hall of Famers would say the best way to combat that is to...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
let a little air out some say that you say some some say that i i have thought this year this is completely obviously unrelated to what we're talking about i have thought this year tom brady's been fine People are very anti-Tom Brady. He's fine. I mean, I'm not going to put it this way. I'm not going to not watch a game because of Tom Brady taking some sort of stand to bring Greg Olson back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You're not going to know who it is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Like, I'm okay. I'm watching the game. I'm fine.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I want him to be better. I want him to be better. He can be better. I'm not saying that he's not good. I'm not saying... I feel like... I feel like what he does is he analyzes every play. And I'm like, you know what, Tom? Some plays are just a one-yard run, and they can just be a one-yard run. Whereas he's like, no, see, here's what's happening. And it's like, I don't need to know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You may not know based on name alone, but... It's the coach of Northern Illinois' football team, the only team to beat Notre Dame this year. We kind of wanted to get the X's and O's, the how Ohio State can beat Notre Dame tonight. And we were really just trying to agitate Golik, if I'm going to be perfectly honest with you. And he was a lovely man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Maybe just give me a little personality and a little less analytics there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Now, here's the tricky part. Who tells him that? Because I think that may be where we're at. I think that may be where we're at with this experience. It's like Tom may come in. I don't know if he's going in and he's like, how'd that go? And everyone's like, that was great. That was perfect, Tom. He's like, okay. And then he goes home or he's just like, I'm Tom Brady. I got this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But it's probably somewhere in the middle, right? No one wants to be the person to sit down and be like, Tom, listen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
What's so funny about that? A little behind the scenes, a little... Little bragging on my part here. Worked with a lot of former athletes. Yeah. A lot of good ones. A lot of great ones. A lot of mediocre ones. No. And here's the thing. They all still want to be coached. They still want the film room Monday. They still want you to say, hey, here's what you did well. Here's what you got to work on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Here's how you do it. They all still want that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, but I don't think there's many people telling Tom.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, you have to be willing to coach, Tom.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah. Wow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Hey, Tom, I'll do it. Tom, I'll do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
They bring in Bill Belichick. Bill Belichick, media coach, after a year in the media himself. He's won. No one was giving him tips on. You know what I mean? It's like, whatever Bill gives us, Bill gives us. I'm not sitting down with Bill.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Coaches don't want to be coached.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Coaches don't want to be coached. No, not going to happen. Anyways, Rams-Eagles. We got to a point. Rams seemed to have put that one away. Or, sorry, Eagles seemed to have put that one away. Rams got right back in that one. I don't know how they managed to pull that one off. Saquon...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
That was the best game of the weekend. Like, you asked before, Washington and the Lions was the most entertaining. But the best game of the weekend was the one that went down to that. Oh, maybe Buffalo.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No, because here's what I will tell you about Buffalo and the Ravens. That game was not as exciting and fun as the Commanders and Lions game, and I don't think was as good as the Rams and Eagles. While they seem to have been playing in worse conditions than Rams and Eagles, Ravens-Bills was a little bit sloppy. It was a close game, but not... a classic game, if that makes sense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I feel bad for Lamar Jackson because Lamar Jackson, aside from the turnovers, but Lamar did what he had to do to win that game And now that will be forgotten within a few weeks. And then next year in the playoffs, it will go back to. And there'll be, you know, the videos and the notes of how Mark Andrews was a big loser and winners and losers presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
There'll be a slight note, but history will forget that Mark Andrews had that two point conversion dropped, that he had that fumble and it will just fall back on Lamar.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And I think we fell in love with him, and he's probably rooting for Notre Dame today. Oh! And we get to the bottom of one of life's most pressing questions. And I don't know why I'm giving away all of the goods now, but we find out what Marcus Freeman smells like. So if you ever wondered to yourself, what does Marcus Freeman smell like? Stick around. You're going to hear that a little later today.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
not being able to get it done unfortunately because again he did everything that he could do and he is going to be the victim in this narrative because they did not lose because of him but that's not how it's going to be remembered and here's the other thing i'll say about that game um it went down to a failed two-point conversion because mark andrews forgot how to catch
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And I don't think it could have lived up to the hype. I don't think anything we could have gotten in that game could have lived up to what we thought we were going to get in that game. And then we came off of a really good game. I think maybe that's why I don't view it as the best game of the weekend, because I was expecting so much more than I got, and I still got really good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, no, this weekend was great. Yesterday's games were great. Again, the fact that we were saying Texas and Chiefs was the worst game of the weekend, that wasn't even a bad game. It was just there was three really good games this weekend. Setting up, if the season ended today, Mikey... Great matchups next week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
We have the Commanders and the Eagles, which you have already told us you want the Commanders to win the Super Bowl. You're rooting for them. And then we have Chiefs and Bills, which I think this is only the second time that they're playing each other in the conference championship with Mahomes and Josh Allen, because I think they always end up running into each other around sooner.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So I think this is the first time since 2020 the Bills are going to be in the AFC championship game. And it's lining up nicely for them because, as we mentioned, results of this week's game aside, the Chiefs do seem to not be the Chiefs that we've seen, even though they looked pretty good. But that could just be that they were playing the Texans.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
If the Bills were to make it to the Super Bowl on somewhat of a down year on this 15-2 Chiefs team... I think this works out great for everyone because that even Patrick is like, well, you know, now he can go home, spend time with his kids. And, you know, the pressure of the three-peat is done. And then next year is kind of a bounce-back year or whatever. But we'll see. I'm excited about that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
That one is the Sunday night game next week, I believe.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Are you saying that if the Chiefs lose the AFC championship game, it's a good loss? Is that a good loss?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It's a good loss for the Chiefs, yeah. It's a good loss? It's a good loss.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
To lose the AFC championship game, you're saying for the Chiefs, because that's going to set them up for the next five years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It's a good loss, yeah. It's a quality loss by the Chiefs. Okay, let me say this. The Chiefs are the team of the commanders, because if the commanders lose, they weren't supposed to be there. And by the way, By the way, people of the world, I believe if you go back, and I'm asking you not to do so, but I believe if you go back about five or six weeks ago, I said the commanders might be frauds.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So don't go back and look into that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You have no reason to go back. I forgot that you should too. You have no reason to go back six weeks and listen to old episodes of God bless football. That stuff's dated. I would appreciate it if you did, but don't do that. We don't need that. Just, but like Walmart, we're just focusing on the future with our new, our new look here. Exactly right.

GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, no eyes on the past in this situation, both eyes on the future. If the commanders lose, whatever, they weren't supposed to be there. If the Eagles lose, people are going to want to fire Sirianni again. Obviously, that's what's going to happen. They're going to want to immediately fire Sirianni. If the Bills lose...

You start having that conversation of... I saw a clip of Peyton Manning talking to Kevin Clark about Josh Allen. And he was saying that Josh is facing some of the same things that he would face in his career, at this point in his career, where it was, Peyton Manning is really good, but... And Josh Allen is really good, makes all these great plays, but... And he was saying how Josh...

Also, I just want to say, God bless football is presented by Spiranoff. We do game days. Please drink responsibly. So we have winners and losers coming up. I have big board bets in a somewhat abridged version of God bless football. Cause you know, it's, you know, we're down a couple of people, the holidays, people were traveling, you know, some people have said, you know what?

needs to remove the butt, which is kind of where this game is. This is a game to get to the Super Bowl. If he doesn't win the Super Bowl this year, he made it to the Super Bowl. And then there's like, okay, we'll be back. Whether they are or not, it doesn't matter. But the thinking will be, okay, we'll be back to the Super Bowl. This is a great step to make it to the Super Bowl.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Not how we wanted the season to end, but a great step. If he loses this game... you're kind of right back in the exact same position. It's the first time again in five years that they've been to the AFC Championship game, but you're back in the same position of... Here we go again, which is unfair to him because going into the season, no one thought that they would be anywhere near this position.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
They thought that this was going to be an off year for the Bills. They got rid of Stephon Diggs. What are his weapons going to be? So I think he's got to win, which is why. Chiefs, good loss. Good loss for the Chiefs. Maybe you see, even though now we're in it, now they might as well go all the way, you know, if you're the Chiefs. Because you're not, what are you getting? Two weeks off?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Like, that's... I'll play two more weeks. What difference does that make? And if you don't make the playoffs, you get a whole month or you lose the first round and you get extra week. Now you might as well two weeks. Anyone can do two weeks, right? Sure. Okay. There's a national championship game tonight. We haven't really talked about the Rams and the Eagles.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, all we've really said is Saquon. So good. And I don't know how much more needs to be said about that game. So national championship is today. We're going to talk to Golik, and we're going to talk to the head coach of Northern Illinois. I don't know what happened to me there. The only team to beat Notre Dame this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But before we do that, Mikey, I thought it'd be fun if I gave you, because it's Monday, obviously.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Need it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I thought it'd be fun if I gave you a little BB BB BB national championship edition.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So the first one that I'm going to do here, is this the first ever BB BB BB college? I can't remember you ever doing it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I think this is the first college edition of this game. And if I'm going to be honest with you as to why it is that I'm doing it, besides the fact that it is Monday, it is because right now my record on the season is 47-29. And in my dream fantasy world, I go 3-0 and I hit 50 wins. And then I am sitting pretty. And maybe moving forward, this then becomes... For the last two weeks of the season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Maybe this will become a Friday situation. But I'm leaning towards no. Because Stugatz doesn't seem to like me doing this. And he doesn't seem to like when I win these things. Because he'll just tell you how great his record has been. Even though he changes the lines in every single one of the game. So... This may be the last one of the season to be determined.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
We were talking about Ohio State and Notre Dame before, Mikey. And you were saying how you have become a Notre Dame fan. I was at a... Instead of Buffalo, I was at a three-year-old's birthday party yesterday, which was a surprise birthday I didn't know about. But then found out, like, oh, we are going to a birthday party in two hours.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So... And, oh, can you go buy a present for said birthday party, which I had to do. So... I went to this birthday party yesterday, and I was talking to some of my – my brother-in-law was there. I was talking to some of the dads. And they, like you, are rooting for Notre Dame, which I thought was weird and I think is just an age thing down here because Miami has a unique –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I'm going to sit by my TV. Yeah. One of the biggest football weekends of the year, national championship for big playoff games. We'll take this one off, maybe sitting around watching the inauguration today. I don't know what people are doing. It's snowing everywhere. People probably snowed in as well. I mean, probably not as many people from our office are snowed in since we live in Miami.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
hatred for both teams sure the older generations remember Notre Dame and the Catholics versus convicts and they hate Notre Dame I don't like Notre Dame because I think they're annoying but I don't have the same passion because also I don't really care about the University of Miami now Ohio State
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
has like a... Miami still believes that they were robbed a national championship to Jim Trestle and Ohio State. So they do not want Ohio State, even though Ohio State has won a national championship since, they do not want Ohio State to win a national championship. So down here, it's kind of interesting because of the whole University of Miami dynamic with both teams.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So anyways, I am going to take the over... 45 and a half points.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So all that to say you're not picking a team yet?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
This is what I'm going to say. I'm taking the over of 45 and a half points. Why am I taking the over, you ask? Because I have done terribly this year when I take the under at anything. So I have told myself, Billy, stop taking the under. Just root for an entertaining game. So I'm going to take the over of 45 and a half points. That's my first one. My second one. Jeremiah Smith, Anytime Touchdown.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I like that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I'm just doing that one for Mikey because Mikey said take Jeremiah Smith anytime touchdown last week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, I was trying to let you have it. I was trying to let you have it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No, no, no, no, it's fine, it's fine. And then Fuentes said take Jeremiah Smith over everything. But I trust Mikey more than I trust Fuentes, so Jeremiah Smith anytime touchdown. And finally, and again, we're going to have Mike Golick on here next. And I want to thank Jess and Lucy because I reached out to them to see if they wanted to join today.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Both were willing, and I ended up saying, you know what, it is early on Martin Luther King Day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You go ahead and enjoy, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, they're both going to the national championship game tonight. So I said, you know what? You guys just enjoy this week. Enjoy this game. Enjoy the national championship. We'll catch up with you later this week. So shout out to them because they were willing to come on and partake in the fun today. And again, the fun is not stopping. We're going to talk to Mike Golick coming up next.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And I'm really going to try to agitate him if I'm going to be honest with you. My final pick headed into agitating Mike Golick. Notre Dame plus 8.5. Yeah, it hurts me. It really hurts me to do it. It hurts me. So many points. And selfishly, I don't know if they're going to win. I want both teams to lose.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But I selfishly just want a good national championship game because there have been some stinkers as of late. I just want a close one. 8.5 points is a lot of points. So anyways, coming up next... As we've teased a billion times by now, Mike Golick gets us ready for the national championship game with a special guest.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It doesn't really snow here, but snowed in right after this. Mikey has to go out. He has to plow some snow to save his family from being trapped in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You know what? It's more of there are things that we plan to get done today and nobody can get out of the garage until I clear a path. And, you know, some of us said they were going to be here and then decided not to, not naming any names or anything like that. But me and Billy are here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So, Mike, I have a theory on the national championship I want to share with you that I'm not sure you're going to be too fond of, but I've been floating it out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I believe that it is best for business for you for Notre Dame to lose the national championship this year. And I'll tell you why.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Hear him out, Mike. Hear him out on this. This isn't a bad theory. He's been peddling this for a while. And to be honest with you, originally I had your reaction. I was like, come on, man. Mike wants Notre Dame to win. But there's some logic to this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
This is going to take something from you here, Billy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Okay, well, here's the deal. Naturally, your heart wants Notre Dame to win the national championship, but your head may not, and you just don't know it until I now give you this theory of mine. I believe that once Notre Dame wins the national championship...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I think some of the opportunities that you get as a distinguished Notre Dame name are going to start going to the Riley Leonard's of the world. You know what I mean? They're going to say, you know what, let's get, let's get some national champions on here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And I feel like then maybe they're going to disrespect all of what you've done for the university for all of the years for all these Johnny come lately. And I don't like it. I don't like it one bit. So I, because I care about you, I, I'm rooting for Notre Dame to lose so that you get to still have your Sterling standing within the community.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I appreciate that very much.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You're welcome.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I disagree. Hey, give the fruits to the people who won the title. If they get the accolades, they deserve it. So be it. If I have to take a step back, so be it. I still live within a block of the campus. It's not like I won't be around. And I doubt all of a sudden I'll stop being let into practice to watch. Now, if that happens, you know, I'll, I'll raise an eyebrow, but I don't know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No, I am all for giving the love to those who win it. So while I understand and I appreciate your concern for me, I still hope that they win the title.

What about, what about the, the, the, the crop that isn't part of the national championship team, but like the Kyle Rudolphs who you like, you didn't win a national championship, but you're just newer to the Notre Dame community.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It'll be interesting how – now, a lot depends on how much you're around, right? You can't just show up once a year and expect to have the red carpet laid out for you. You have to kind of be around. You have to be at games. You have to be at practice. You have to – if you're invited to talk to the team, talk to the team. So you have to stay involved with the team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And Billy, I'm watching these snow games because it feels like all the games were in either bitter cold or snow or indoors the last two games. And I'm wondering, like... Is that something you would want to do? Like if we could go to the Bills game or the Chiefs game or even the Eagles game where it looked – for those of us that live in snow, you know there's snow and there's that wet rain snow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But this is my concern, Mike, because I feel like now your six-month commitment to Notre Dame is going to have to become a year-round commitment where maybe we spend a lot more time at the South Bend estate. You know what I mean? Or maybe they say, you know what? This is nice. You're a block away from campus, but this is for winners. You're going to have to move three blocks away from campus now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You know what I mean? Here's the thing. I believe that you believe that they're not going to do this to you. But I believe they're not going to stab you in the front. I think we need to keep an eye on them because it's the ones that you love the most that can hurt you the most. And I think that if we're not looking out for you, they may break your heart, and I don't want you to be heartbroken.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I appreciate your concern for me. I personally am not worried about it. I have too much respect for Marcus Freeman that he wouldn't do that to former players because he's made such a point of bringing former players back into the fold. But it's noted. I do appreciate your concern.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah. How do we feel about Father Dowd? Is he one that would hurt you?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No. How about Father Dowd, the new president of Notre Dame, and Pete Bavocqua, the new AD of Notre Dame? Here they are, their first year in the gig, and their team's playing for the national championship. I mean, that's pretty damn impressive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yes. Which isn't shocking. But they are for nice reasons.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
He does. He does. Well, I do appreciate that. I'm not too worried. You know what? It's a good problem to have.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, it may not be. That's what I'm getting at. It seems hypothetically like a good problem to have until we have it. So I'm trying to avoid it. I have a golden heart for the Golden Domers. You know what I mean?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I'm willing to roll the dice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No, not at this point. I don't think he wants to go to the NFL. Just yet. He just signed the extension with Notre Dame. They're paying him good bucks. I do think he'll be around. I know his name has been attached to the Bears, but I don't think that he wants to. I'm not sure what his goal is, if he wants to coach in the NFL or not. But I don't think he wants to right now. That would be my guess.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It was that, staying at your house, Billy, and the fact that I have PTSD about that stadium in Notre Dame. They played there for the title when my boys were on the team in 2013 in that stadium and got smoked by Bama, so I didn't feel like revisiting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It looks very different now, Mike. You wouldn't even recognize it from that game. They have the roof on there. It's a totally different vibe, but I get it. I get it. Not the house thing. I don't understand why you don't want to stay at my house, but I get the whole PTSD from this. Yeah, look, I'm going to assume it's that it's more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Look at that couch. How inviting is that couch to lay on? So my legs could hang over the end of it.

Oh, no, that's a sofa bed that pulls out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Oh, that would be great. Yeah. Like they all have that bar in the middle. I'm going to lay on the bar. That would be awesome.

No, he doesn't. No, he doesn't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
The bar, the bar just would be right in the middle of my back. I would just get a horrible night's sleep.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, they just emailed. Do they want to get him on now? And I said, yes, please. Yes, please. I'm assuming any second here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And it's very different than – than actual big flakes of snow. Is that something you'd want to do? Would you be okay if I was like, hey, Billy, I got two tickets to the Bills game. You want to go?

I think he thinks it's The Rock now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I would have thought it would be someone associated with Notre Dame.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, well, maybe. Who knows? It might be. Maybe. I have a question for you, Michael, that I want to get to the bottom of. Because Jessica told this story on the show a couple weeks back. So she was there for the first playoff game. Yes. Where you guys were hosting Indiana. Yes. And then she told us that there was a gathering at your house after the game where some former players were there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And she ran into Shane Gillis, who was just kind of hanging out at your house. Now, not at the house was you or your son, because you both went out of Dodge right after the game, had flights to go and you weren't there, but still hosted a house party for a who's who of Notre Dame people.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, that was a turn. And I didn't even know that that Shane Gillis was there. I had heard that he wanted to.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I mean, and have a couple of beers. But Mike and I had to go work the Penn State SMU game the next morning. So we had a 1 a.m. flight. that we took, and my son Jake was at the game as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
He drove us to the airport, so while we were all going to the airport, Shane Gillis, Kyle Rudolph was over the house, Braxton Cave was over the house, and they were with Shane during the game, and Shane, as they were, they used our house as kind of a place to wait for an Uber, Shane came by and was just hanging out. And Jess Matana, who we're talking about, she was staying at the house.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
We had her stay at the house for the game. She walks in and says, there's Shane Gillis sitting there having a beer. I mean, I thought I had heard he might come over, but I knew we weren't going to be there. So, yeah, we just kind of host people even if we're not there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, so amongst just us friends here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Not everyone. Not everyone is hosted. Sometimes we ask to come and we're not invited. Yes. Well, no, that's on purpose.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, I just I just opened my couch for you.

GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
It's already happened. I'll confess to you that I was working on something the last two weeks and really last week came up with a good And I had plans to go to Buffalo for the game. And we have someone that we work with, Taylor, who went to college with Mac Hollins. So he had assured me that if we were to go, we were going to on Saturday. And I'm sure he didn't run this by Mac.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Coach, let me tell you, I was at that game. I was very sad at that game. But, I mean, as a former player who played for a number of coaches, I was extremely, when I sat down and got over the sadness of Notre Dame losing, I was so happy for your players and you as a coach. I mean, for coming into the stadium, I mean,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
What were you saying to the team on the sidelines at halftime when we kept expecting Notre Dame to come back and they weren't?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
He's still not. It'll take a win on the championship game for Mike to truly be okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
No, no. As I said, in the moment, I wasn't happy. But then, listen, it's a reality. Northern Illinois won the game. I was happy for the players. And I know he had some injuries. He got hurt in that game. But Ontario Brown, wow. I mean, he was so big in that game. I mean, rushing and caught a couple of balls for over 100 yards. I mean, you needed a guy to stand out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And in that game, anyway, he really stood out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So when you're game playing, and Notre Dame plays about as much man as anybody in the country. And with Jeremiah Smith and Emeka Abuka, I mean, that's going to be a difficult task. As a coach, and this is for Al Golden, the D coordinator, do you change up and say, we're going to have to play more zone? Or do you say, hey, we're in the national championship. We play mostly man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
We're just sticking with what we do.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Coach, coach, when you guys beat Notre Dame and you go after the game and you shake hands with, you know, Coach Freeman and and you see some of the other players, you like go up to any of the Notre Dame players and say, you know what? Like, we got room for you next year on this roster if you want to join a winner like any of that happened.

but the plan was on Saturday to interview Mac and we would just be walking through the snow barefoot as we were doing the interview. So like we'd be hanging out with Mac, just walking around in the snow barefoot, which would have led to me being very sick, but probably worth, probably worth it. And then we probably would have done like, the idea was like,

You shouldn't have a rooting interest in the national championship game, but it would be fair to assume that you'd like Notre Dame to win, correct? Just because of the fact that you would then be the only team that beat the national champion. I imagine his kids are aware of it, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You will. You will always have that memory, and that's something that will last for you and the kids for a long time, no doubt about it.

have a content, a quote unquote content house. And it was really just because this was like our cost efficient pitch was like, well, if we get like an Airbnb and there's like three of us going, three or four of us going, we just put everyone in the same thing. We save hundreds of dollars on hotels that way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, we're going. Big matchup between you and Michigan this week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Coach, I'm sorry. I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Oh, God. Stop it. Coach, just go.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

What a day. In all honesty, what a day for them that had to be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Yeah, yeah. Not many people giving Notre Dame a chance, that's for sure. But, hey, we're in the game. And I think it'll be a hell of a game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
yeah uh mike we'll let you go here in just a second just back to marcus freeman nfl i he'd be crazy he is good mike if you win a national championship at notre dame it will never get better and bigger than that for him he'll never be more relevant than he is again it comes down to what your goals are if you want if you want to coach at the highest level that's the nfl if that's a goal of marcus freeman's and eventually he gets the chance to he may take it because that's a goal it's just like a player a player would like to play in the nfl that's the goal
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And to hope to make it. So if that's a coach's goal and they get the opportunity and he takes it, I would be bummed he left Notre Dame. But I would be happy that he got to achieve a goal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I'll risk it. Again. I'll risk it being bad for the Golik family. Believe me. Wow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

That's okay. I've had a good run.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So it's like, okay, well, we'll just like, we'll say we'll do this interview with Mac, which he claims he was going to get done. And then we'll like, I don't know, live watch along, you know, the Saturday night game or something. I think Texans Chiefs. Right. And there was no Commanders Lions. Wow. What a game that was. We'll get to that in a minute.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And then on Sunday, because we didn't get approved for credentials, it was almost a benefit because it was like, OK, cool, like full party mode game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
in the snow in the bills parking lot um and then maybe i pay some penances for my sins against josh allen maybe i go through a table maybe it's on fire who knows just try some ketchup and mustard yeah that was probably gonna be see i draw the line there i draw the line there too like that was gonna be my line just because i then have to like because then it becomes like ketchup and mustard icicles on me all day long and like
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Going through a table. Okay. Catching on fire. My wife's not listening. Okay. Like I'm fine with, with these things, you know, uh, yeah. Eat a disgusting amount of like food. And, and like, since, you know, I'm not credentialed, maybe, you know, consume any drink that I'm handed, like fine. That's part of the job that day, but the ketchup and mustard was going to be my line. So.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
it didn't end up spoiler alert. I'm here in my house. That trip didn't get approved. So it never happens. Uh, but to answer your question, yeah, I, the idea of it for a day seems like fun. Like, so as someone who's not like a, you know, snow person, obviously because of where I live, um, my wife a couple of years ago was like, I want to see snow. She had never seen snow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So she wanted to see snow. So I told her, like, pick a place. And this was for like a birthday present. Her birthday is in December. So I said, for your birthday, pick a place and we'll go to, you know, hopefully see snow like, you know, after Christmas this year. So she ended up picking Chicago and we had no idea how terrible Chicago is at that time of year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I already see where this is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
the wind chill i already know where you went wrong wind chill is like negative 15 it's on a lake you know this and the wind really the windy city really picks up there is horribly cold so my uh my thing on snow is it's fun for like the first hour and a half and then it's like okay this is terrible why did we do this and i don't know if you're the same way i mean you need to you need to save your family you're trapped in the house are there any errands let me ask you and we're
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Guys, I promise we're going to get to football. But sure, this is the important stuff. The errands that are not being done today because you're snowed in until you go out and clear the path. Are any of them your errands?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Of course not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
OK, of course. So it benefits you to go out and do that. And then you theoretically would have the house somewhat to yourself or you will like the busy bodies will be gone.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Maybe kids are off today. So same errands are going to get run. And the kids solo and the kids stay home with me. And honestly, that's that's kind of what I'm putting off, because while they're ready to go run and frolic and play in the snow for hours, I am with you where it's like, OK, this was fun for a half an hour up. You hit daddy with a snowball. I hit you with a snowball. Let's go in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
They're like, no, let's now build a snow fort and a snowman and go sledding down this minor hill. And then let's drive to the big hill where we can go to sledding a thousand times. And my little guy is going to go a hundred miles an hour and I'm going to have to run down the hill to make sure he's okay. And then have a heart attack trying to walk my fat ass back up the hill and
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So that, you know, that's what it is. And so I would much rather run errands and shovel snow than deal with a kid's snow day for the entirety of the day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Why don't you volunteer to do the errands? Say, hey, to you, I'm like, hey, you know, like you could, you could really use a break. I see like you're, why don't you stay in?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Because my wife knows, because my wife knows, like it's, You're not fooling her. You're not telling her, I'll run the errands to give you a break. She goes, no, the errands are the break. She knows.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You know what's funny? And by the way, Texans 14, Chiefs 23, Patrick Mahomes continues to just get every call. Even when he's not getting hit, it's roughing the pass running.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
You know what? Listen, I want to get back to the snow stuff. But that fake flop he did where he was trying to get the call and didn't get one, that's the kind of thing that will make you not like him. Because you get every call. You don't need to sell one. You get every call. And I get it. The refs did this. Okay, I get it. But, like, you don't need to make a bad situation worse.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
The perception is already you get every call. Don't flop. Please don't flop.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, the one where the two Texans hit themselves in the helmet and he ducked under both of them and Troy Aikman nearly lost it. He was just kind of wandering around there in the middle of the field looking to get hit. It sounds like a crazy thing to say, but once you see it and you're looking for it, it's like, okay, he's trying to just get hit here. Hard, soft, but he's just looking to get hit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Which, by the way, and we'll get to it in a minute, Our friend Josh Allen, not immune to that criticism either. He just doesn't get the same number of calls that Patrick Mahomes gets for whatever reason. Also, big storyline of that game. Huge storyline of the game that we haven't gotten to yet. Kalen Clark was sitting next to Taylor Swift, so that has now been covered.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
From big-time Swifty to now, I guess, friend for a day, Kalen Clark and Taylor Swift.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
How did that happen? Like I would call two to be like, like did Taylor say, Hey Caitlin, you should come to a game with me one day. No. And Caitlin was like, so the playoffs. And he was like, Oh, I don't know that we're, we're playoff suite friends. I was thinking more like week seven against the Panthers. You should come to the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
So I'm thinking and I don't know this, obviously, how how would I know this? And we have we have we'll get to winners and losers. This is going to be a winner and loser. We'll get to that in a minute. I think what happened there was and it could be wrong. I would imagine that there was somehow a Kelsey connection there, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Like maybe she met Jason or someone crossed paths with Travis, and then they're like, oh, we should get you out to this game. And I don't want to... Look, I think it's documented. Taylor Swift was not a huge sports fan before this, right? Like we kind of know this. So I'm going to say... that maybe they met yesterday or they had maybe met once or twice in passing before.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
But I'm thinking maybe Saturday was their first like time hanging. And as you could see, like it started out like Caitlin was in the back of the booth and then it was like, hey, right up here up front next to Taylor. Maybe they, you know, trying to stay warm, had a couple of drinks or whatever, just hanging out, just became close friends. And then they're hugging at the end of the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And really, you know, I like to say shout out to Brittany Mahomes, who just, you know, just delivered a baby. They just had another child, the Mahomes family. Congratulations. What a blessing. But I was seeing early Taylor and Britney vibes there between Caitlyn and Taylor. So hopefully Britney doesn't get out of the picture for having a child. That would be horrible.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
And I hope, thoughts and prayers, that's the situation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I still want to see if Taylor will stay with Kelsey if they lose. She's only known winning, and it's really bothering me because I don't really want the Chiefs to lose, especially considering who they're playing now in my allegiance. But at the same time, part of me wants to know if Taylor... Like, if Taylor's on the cusp of breaking up with... Just hypothetically.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
I'm not reporting anything, please. If she's on the cusp of breaking up with him, like... It's a bad look if she waits till after they lose because it's like, well, you were just in it for the Super Bowls.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: American Coffee and Marcus Freeman's scent
Well, she could be the villain in that story, especially if they make it to the Super Bowl again and lose the Super Bowl.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Did she make an album about it?

Well, then she's the bad guy. Wow, imagine like a Taylor Swift heel turn. You know, like she becomes like NWO Hulk Hogan. Yeah. I don't think that our fans would. I don't think our fans would allow that to happen, though. You know, like she's going to be the wrestler that never goes bad, which like there's not a ton of them. Hey, Joe Mixon had 88 yards and a touchdown. Huh?

I think he added the detail of when this happened because there was a lot of fan blowback to him posting himself on a relaxing vacation during the All-Star break. So if he frames it as, I was actually playing hurt, I needed this relaxation, people were just getting in his mentions for having a good time away from the sport. So I think that that's part of the intention there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Runaway Freight Train of Gibberish
It was, actually. It is a night game? It's making me stay away from the game. I know that that was the opposite of the intention, but the form is so bad from the blue jackets.

What did you make of Josh Hart and Tom Thibodeau mixing it up? And also, how do we stop the Riddler from poisoning Gotham's water supply?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
I can understand how that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
I don't think it's the dumbest thing. I think injecting Brad Marchand, but he's not really playing. So I don't think that's what's happening. I think what's happening here is Aaron Ekblad, because of performance enhancers, turned into a really good player for Florida. And we've seen these dips in form from Florida this season when Aaron Ekblad is not at his performance enhancing best.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
And right now they miss Aaron Ekblad. And that's what's happening. Also, this is a natural dip in form after they set the world on fire. And yeah, they've lost three out of four. In the middle of that, they beat Toronto in Toronto. Comeback victory in its own right against a team that's in the division right now that's presently chasing them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
I saw someone drew a big old dick on that tour bus, so congrats.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
This is exactly where you want this dip to happen in the season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
That's right. That's right. I do get a little angry in the group chat. And this is me like coming out anti-Homer's like, well, yeah, shocking that Aaron Eckblad's out and we suffer. And this is all because Aaron Eckblad's out. But you have to kind of acknowledge that Aaron Eckblad was what you think he is because of clearly performance enhancers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
I think so. I think he's part of the nostalgia circuit, too. There's a lot of people that maybe, as the game evolved, have aged out of following the sport day to day, but Rick Pitino is like, I know that guy. Yeah. And he's doing it with a smaller program. And people just like to either root for brands at this time of year or one of the few recognizable faces. It's such a transient sport.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Like, this is crazy. Oh, my Jarvis and them boys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
College basketball is a very difficult sport to follow, even if you're a fan of it. And Rick Pitino does numbers. He is often aggregated. The social channels, if you follow all the college basketball sites that you should, and Rick Pitino is probably the person that's pushed out the most.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
So it's been a connection point for a lot of people throughout this season, one of the few storylines that you can get a grip on. Like I said, if you love college basketball and you have a team that you're following, it's easy to follow your own conference and the teams that you're playing. But there are so many games and so many legitimately good teams. It's not like college football.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
There's so much wealth distributed that to be locked in on everything this time of year, you have to be an absolute sicko.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
So Marchand will probably be back before the playoffs. That's the expectation. Kachuk will return with the playoffs. Ekblad's suspension carries him two games into the postseason, and then Ekblad is back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
So during the postseason, you're going to have those three talents essentially all coming into your lineup around the same time, and you would imagine that the form will be much better when the playoffs roll around for the Panthers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
But I am shocked because the Panthers, their whole thing is if they have a two goal lead, they never lose that game in regulation. And now we've seen it. And you can understand the emotion of the Bruins won and Florida was just so hot there that it had to give out at a certain time. But the Islanders loss is pretty troubling. This is a pretty difficult road stretch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
probably the most difficult stretch in their calendar when it comes to travel, quick turnarounds, and you certainly don't want to have a less deeper team for it. But I know I'm the guy that originated the Marchand take. It's something to keep an eye on. But I think this has more to do with Eckblad and the current congestion of their schedule.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Tell the listeners two things. Jägermeister is great, but everyone's been drinking it wrong. Damn, that's cold. Well, how should we be drinking it? They're so glad you asked. Ice cold at zero degrees Fahrenheit to be exact. Ice cold shots of Jägermeister. That's it. That's all they want to tell you. So wherever you are, if you're hanging out with friends or at the bar, call the shots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
There is a chance that Toronto catches them in this division, despite that result that Florida had directly against Toronto. And that'll make it interesting in the playoffs. Right now, most people have their eye on the Kachuk brothers potentially playing in the first round. It may not get to that point if the Cats don't win their division.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
I know what you're doing. We don't know when this happened with Eckblad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
All right. So you went exactly where I thought you were going to go. Ekblad was a different player in the postseason last year than he was this regular season. It was a pretty clear and obvious night and day to the point that you're asking, man, was he just really, really hurt during the postseason?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Last two postseasons, Aaron Ekblad hasn't been very good and he certainly wasn't the player that he was before. This season in particular... It was a revelation. I don't know when the sample was. There's that curious Islanders Reddit post that was circulating about someone just posting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
I think there's a PED thing going on with the Panthers, and it's going to end up reversing the championship game. That's all people have right now. I don't know when their sample was for him to test positive for performance enhancers, but I will say this season, he's looked the best he has in several seasons for Florida, and it made all the sense in the world when that press release came through.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
What I don't like so much about it is you had those things happen at the same time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Canada is definitely with you. You had the Panthers finally taking advantage of the long-term IR that all the teams that they were chasing. Vegas beat them in a Stanley Cup because of it. The Tampa Bay Lightning eliminated them because they took advantage of it. Now all of a sudden Florida's playing that game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Then you bring in Brad Marchand, who leans into everything that they say about the Panthers and Sam Bennett and Kachuk. And now you don't really have much of a defense because at least you could say, well, we're at least better than Boston. Now we're not. And then you add the Ekblad thing. All these things happen within a couple of days.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Cheers with ice cold shots of Jägermeister.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
And so it's kind of like, OK, we're just embracing the dark side here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Well, I don't think you have the support of the timeline. No, yeah. I don't think that that's how that happened. I don't think he injected himself. Overnight steroids? The NHL was like, well, we got you.

Drink responsibly. Jagermeister liqueur, 35% alcohol by volume. Imported by Mass Jagermeister U.S. White Plains, New York. Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Oh, I've laid the groundwork.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
for sure I don't like this one bit I don't like it because yeah what Billy said outside of it taking a fairly ridiculous turn was actually true they felt like the Panthers did this the right way they didn't take advantage of the long term IR they went through these evil dastardly teams and now it's just it is a vibe reversal that I'm not necessarily comfortable with I like the scrappy underdog Florida Panthers that had to go through teams taking advantage of loopholes and now they've become one yeah
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
You're just smiling, staring.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)

I don't like this show today. I'm dying, man. Not with it so far. And we got a terrible playoff. It looked like I was playing golf in it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
It's over. Rory won. The playoff was plus three to plus one. It was just not good. It was just very disappointing. We could have done this last night. We could have done this in the evening. This is stupid.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
There's no way Rory wins that way. Exactly. The only way that Rory could. I wanted the drama of Rory having to make a playoff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
But you wanted to see him make a big putt given his reputation, and Spahn just made it so easy by playing so poorly that we didn't actually have to see Rory conquer demons at the players. Like the story won't be at all, Rory did it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
He did that at 17. I didn't like it. I thought it was a bad omen that he took his pants off and took a shit at the tee box. That was not good juju. Might as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Batman Logo (feat. Sam Morril)
Have you seen what 17 looks like? That's essentially a mini-golf game. It's a ridiculous hole.

I'm not getting into that. How am I supposed to know? They seem pretty serious, and he seems oddly flexible for his age. Put a ring on that finger. It's IG official. That's not nothing. Yeah, I'm not – this is somehow more reckless than the LeBron thing. What's reckless? Does she love him?

Ben, I'm going to be your friend here. You got some blind spots here, pal. All right? There's some blind spots here. Like, Valerie helps you out a ton with stuff. Like, she is your anchor. Like, this is – I think that's all that's happening right here. She's his manager. She's his partner. And they're doing partner things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
She's young. She posts. She's that IG age. I think we're acting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
You're going to love it. He's always been lovey-dovey with long-term girlfriends. He's dressed up as pirates. I saw him at the Gronk Beach House. He loves to have a good time, and he's super public. This is the first time he's dated someone that's a little bit more active when it comes to social media posting. But Bill Lowkey has always kind of been like this. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
It's a thing that happens a lot. To me, the interesting part about this is whether or not it succeeds or fails, or if he even gives it long enough to do that. In college, staffs generally need like three years to put their program in place. He is approaching this differently. In terms of talent acquisition, it hasn't gone the way that most people think it would have gone.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
It's still super early, and it's hard to judge when a new coach jumps in in an offseason like that. But, okay, you think that you're smarter. You think hiring your friends like Lombardi is going to work out for you on this level, and I'm really interested to see if it actually does.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
I mean, well, because he's going to die first, obviously. Is that what you're getting at? She could be there for his forever. I mean, Billy, you were skeptical of their love. I mean.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
It's not his network. He goes on the boat. He goes to parties. He's a fun guy. He for sure calls it supper, too. There's stew involved.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
Well, also his approach is more of like a development. I'm really good at developing players. Tom Brady was a six-round draft pick. I'm going to scout guys. I'm going to have these gems that you find and develop them. But that takes time. Does the oldest coach have time? Does what he brings in with his prestige afford him that kind of time?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
Does he get bored with it and wants to jump back to the NFL? Or does this experience make him a bigger punchline in the NFL? And he's probably closing those doors that he still seemingly is interested in walking through.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
He's going to attempt what the vision, at least for year one, is I have a coaching advantage because I'm the greatest head coach of all time. When the bright lights go on that Monday night against TCU, you know you've got the smarter coach on your sideline and certainly the more prestigious one. And I will develop these kids.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
I mean, if I'm a college football fan, that's all I have to believe in right now for North Carolina because that's all he's shown me. He's not walking in the door with Travis Hunter. And I think that's a little bit of a surprise. But again, he's not from this world. At least Deion was at Jackson State. He knew how to recruit talent. He knew how to walk in the door with a lot of talent.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
It's a whole new base level of skill that he's got to learn or at least build a program good enough that it makes it easier for him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
He's a better head coach than all of them.

Yeah, easily. Well, at least I know Lombardi feels that way.

Bill's the best coach in college football in terms of X's and O's.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
It matters. I actually do think it matters. As a fan of a program that is often inside that conference more talented than its opponents, but there's deficiencies at head coach in terms of tactical advantage, we've lost to a ton of opponents over the last 21 years that quantifiably have smarter staffs than Miami. And the talent gap, you see the composite recruiting rankings.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

And obviously Boston is still there beating the Lakers and LeBron is leaving the game as Jason Tatum goes for his usual quiet 40.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
It's always though something that I enjoy monitoring when the rest of the league gets competitive on what the championship standard is and then passes the championship standard. Because we're all watching Denver We saw what it took to win the championship and all of us are looking at that and saying, that's not good enough anymore.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
The league has elevated beyond where... I've seen a lot of people, including Greg Cody, complaining about all the leads that the Miami Heat are blowing and then blaming that on Eric Spolstra, when what's actually happening there is... These games are decided in the fourth quarter the way that OKC in Denver was yesterday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
The games closed through three quarters and in the fourth quarter you just see OKC run away. The Miami Heat are so limited offensively that when it gets tight late... They can't hold on to their leads, because offensively they are so wildly limited. You can sit here and say they've got a bunch of double-digit leads, but in that league, that has ceased to matter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
That's not something that matters anymore, that you have a double-digit league, that can be erased the moment that a team makes four threes. I don't know what your assessment is there, but it's not enough anymore to have just Jokic doing MVP things, because they may take the MVP away from him because they're bored by him, but he's having his best season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Statistically, that human being is getting better and the architecture around him isn't getting better. That's not good enough anymore. We're in consensus on that, correct? What was good enough a few years ago is no longer good enough in Denver, even though the MVP is better than he's ever been.

When this happened last week, Mike Ryan is not here for Brad Marchand, though. How do you feel? That is a minority opinion I feel like he's expressing on behalf of Panther fans. I do not believe that he speaks for all Panther fans, that if you can get a 36-year-old Brad Marchand For $125,000 you absolutely end up doing that. Roy, where are you? And thank you for joining us from the arena.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Can you guys explain to me why it is that we do what it is that we did earlier in the show with OKC and Cleveland that would make those fanbases insane about how dismissive we are about their teams being excellent and how bad a finals that would be if it's OKC and Cleveland?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Can you explain to me why it is and how it is we do that with our big market bias, where if I took those teams and simply put them in Lakers uniforms, in Knicks uniforms, in Celtics uniforms, I've got a kind of history in it that makes the finals more interesting than this would be, even though it is not unclear the two best teams during the regular season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Boston will have something to say about that in the postseason. But during the regular season, these are the two best teams. And if I tell... Ja.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Well, just interest. I'm not doing TV ratings. I'm just doing interest and just generally how we want storylines that are familiar. We want the history that we're used to. It takes us a minute to adapt to... What do you mean I have to be paying attention to how good Shay Gilgis Alexander is or how good it is when it's Garland and Allen and Mobley and Mitchell?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Aber er ruft an. Co-Workers, fools and idiots, or future co-workers, because he's complaining about what Jessica just mentioned, which is that anytime you turn into the main industry spokespeople on cheerleading and celebrating the sport, and I don't know whose responsibility it is here. Is it the media's responsibility to get fans properly informed and interested in change and the newcomers?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Because... The newcomers are here. They've arrived. Anthony Edwards is the reason that OKC didn't advance last year. Minnesota is less good. OKC has done some suffering. That OKC team was really good last year. Young. This year, they're better. They've grown. Holmgren is an important piece to OKC. And what have they lost? Eleven times this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Cleveland, as I mentioned, three double-digit winning streaks this year. They're dragging people. And Charles Barkley is saying of the media coverage what Jessica is saying, which is, you can't just be talking about the Lakers and Steph all the time. But...

But when we talk about media responsibilities and we talk about the main voices in the NBA, not only talking about the same teams, but also gravitating toward the dramatic storylines that don't have much of anything to do with basketball. I'm going to play some of this Charles Barkley sound. He's been doing it a lot of times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You don't think this is weird, that all of this is strange? Certainly you're not running into several other people often that are interested in just going to a graveyard where...

Aber David Dwork, dein Co-Host auf der Hockey-Show, die manchmal am Freitag erscheint, was würdest du uns als Fan und Kunden an die Florida Panthers geben, die wie das Tampa Bay Lightning verhalten sind? Staschen Sie Kachuck weg, damit sie ein Marchand bekommen?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Ich denke, es gibt viel Angst in der Welt und ich denke, dass die Panther-Fans nicht darüber nachdenken, weil sie diejenigen waren, die angstig waren. Jetzt haben sie die Möglichkeit, das zu tun, was die Teams wünschen, dass sie es tun können.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
He always will. It doesn't seem like there's a lot of energy and enthusiasm where you are, though. I don't feel like that is pulsating Hockey Nation everywhere around you.

Football tends to be a bigger locker room with more players in it, so there's more general open air. For some reason the hockey locker room is smaller than I would like it to be, but they also have fewer players, right? The hockey locker room is a little more cramped than it needs to be. Do I have this wrong, Roy? I feel like all hockey locker rooms need to be twice as large as they actually are.

Is this the best and the deepest Panther team there has ever been?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Really? They're not built for the playoffs. They're not built for the playoffs. They're built like the Panthers' President's Trophy team. Exciting hockey, end-to-end rushes, but when you get to the playoffs and everybody starts beating the snot out of each other, it doesn't really work that well.

Thank you, gentlemen. Appreciate all of your work on the hockey show and beyond. They are very excited. Everything around the Panthers is feeling championship excellent.

We have learned that it is difficult to stay atop the championship mountain. Not just in hockey, but you saw that Denver won the championship and now yesterday you're watching and Denver is getting run out of the building late in the game against Oklahoma City because Oklahoma City is going to be good for a really long time. And when that game...

Hour 1: Roy & David Smell Like Brian Skrudland
Ich habe gestern die Entscheidung gemacht, dass der beste Offensivspieler, den ich jemals gesehen habe, stoppt. Was mit Denver passiert, wenn Jokic auf dem Platz ist und wenn er auf dem Platz ist, ist ein bisschen architekturisch stupend, dass sie ihm nicht mehr Hilfe bekommen haben. in Denver. He puts up the first 30-20-20 in league history.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
That's logistically stupid, right? Make him come down here for a press conference just to go right back to Boston? What did we do that for? Just wait.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
But what you guys are arguing is Greg saying he's the 12th best quarterback and you're saying he's the 10th. So what are we actually really arguing about?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
I was looking up, by the way, since you guys are talking about stats and how you can manipulate stats to tell you anything you want because we were talking about Kevin Love earlier and retiring him and why they retire him. I found three Cleveland Cavaliers stats in which Kevin Love is the all-time leader.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
Defensive rebound percentage, defensive rebounds per 36 minutes, and defensive rebounds per 100 possessions. So there you go. All-time great in three random stats.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
Well, five, but only two times for the Cavs. So Cavs, I mean, I don't know why they're retiring.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
Bob Love's number 41 is also retired by the Southern Jaguars. There you go. That's the biggest honor of all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
There's only two other Southern Jaguars who have their number retired. Avery Johnson and Bobby Phils. Wow. How about that? A lot of Bulls have their numbers retired.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
I mean, it's a good move by all teams involved, right? The Seahawks didn't want to pay him $40 million a year. The Raiders needed a quarterback.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
Yeah, but they just gave him $123.5 million guaranteed, $40 million a year, and he's someone that has an injury history. So the idea of, you know what, I'm just going to sit out and not play, and then I'll get it next time around –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
You want a football player that doesn't care about money, and that's not what this incident was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
No, no, no. I mean, it's just for three years. It's fine. Three years, $120 million. I'd love living in Cleveland for that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
Where do you think he lives in the off season?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
He might. I don't know. I'll take the under. I think you'll have a home there. That doesn't mean he doesn't like playing there now. Right. He could like it there. We're just making fun of Cleveland the place.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
He also didn't say all that many hurtful things. Like you guys are saying Radio Row. Like here's a here's a newsflash. Everyone was told they couldn't ask him about the trade requests at Radio Row. Only one person was allowed to. It was Mina and he said nothing. So like he said the day before he went to Radio Row, I want to be traded.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
And everyone that had a book was like, you can't ask him about that. It's like, OK, so what do we ask him about? And that's exactly how that went.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
Yeah, that's what you say when you want to leverage the other one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
But the only way he could have played for one of the best teams was by making substantially less than what he's going to make. So why would he want to go and play for one of the best teams so you guys can feel good in exchange for $20 million a year?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
For the Steelers, it also, like, what is Russ's number? Because it's not a million dollars a year, which is what they had him for last year, right? So, like, now that they've given DK $30 million, how much are you going to give to the quarterback? Like, are you going to draft a quarterback? Or are you going to get, like, a middle-level quarterback?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
You have fields that you could get probably for cheaper than you can get Russ at this point. And, like, the Aaron Rodgers thing... I mean, any team that has a quarterback need now that's looking for an established quarterback, even though he didn't have a great season last year, is better than gambling on a Daniel Jones, maybe.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
If you're close enough and you need a serviceable quarterback, you take a chance on Aaron Rodgers. Or if you're a terrible team that just wants to make a splashy move, you get Aaron Rodgers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
The Vikings make sense in that J.J. McCarthy missed all of last season with an injury. So you still don't really know what you have in J.J. McCarthy. So like if he is still your plan going forward, you bring in Aaron Rodgers for a season to get you to J.J. Because J.J., after sitting out a season, probably isn't ready to be your starter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
And I don't think that you're ready to commit to Sam Darnold long term, which is probably what Sam Darnold is looking for this offseason.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
No, he's not going to be a backup.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
But he's also taking over a team that was 4-13 that didn't have a quarterback. So even if he gets you to 500, that is a huge upgrade from where the Raiders were last season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: If You Say Geno Smith's Name ONE More Time...
I mean, maybe not long term, but like you just signed Max Crosby, who you're going to be building around, right? And he commanded a lot of money. Are you going to overtake the Chiefs in the AFC West? Probably not. You're probably playing for a wild card spot. If you get...

I mean, don't get me wrong. As a father, I also don't want to talk about Oklahoma City Cleveland matching up in the NBA final. I think the most interesting thing that's happening in the sport is still the ramifications of the Luca trade, what it's done to the Dallas market, how they've totally unraveled there. I think that's an interesting drama, and LeBron is a part of that.

Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
This one just seems entirely manufactured. From the timing, I think we all know what this is. If you wanted to keep LeBron James in purple and gold, part of the deal was you were going to pay his son $8 million and try to develop him in your franchise. And everything else around it is just BS.

that Marchand was coming specifically? No. I knew that they were working on something kind of shocking from talking to folks. I never in a million years would have assumed it's Brad Marchand who apparently only wanted to go to Florida. And Pierre Lebrun just tweeted this morning that
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
because most of his salary was given in the form of a signing bonus, Boston retaining part of that salary, it's only going to cost the Florida Panthers $125,000 in real money to have Brad Marchand on their roster, which is solid for a fourth liner.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Yes, if they got a much better deal in return, fewer people would be upset. Wholeheartedly agree.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
I'm sure that's part of the agreement, don't you think? Part of the agreement for the sale is like, I'm not going to be in the public space. It's kind of like when... Historically, a president leaves office, they kind of disappear for a little bit and respect the transition of power and they don't pop up because they know what that job's like and it's a courteous thing to do.

He just came out of hiding. He literally just put something out from his presidential library about Ukraine specifically. And, I mean, you can do some digging and know exactly where the Bush family sides by their absence at stuff and whatnot. There were a lot of legacy Republicans that weren't at the RNC. Amazing way to make this political, but I think I'm the one to blame there.

Why wouldn't they do this for... It's actually gained popularity. Gilbert Arenas was huge for that number. I think you'll look at most rosters and find zeros. It's become in vogue. But yeah, I think that if they're retiring any active players, why don't they retire LeBron's?

udonis like his career leader across like some very important stats for what has become like since its inception a storied nba franchise in miami you can understand that i can certainly understand kevin love how long was he in cleveland for six seasons he made it to an all-star game twice in that uniform won an nba championship was the the third most important player yeah i get it but they also had two pretty great ones on their team that's an easy jersey retirement
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
The reports are that the only team he said he wanted to go to was Florida. And Boston did what they could to make that happen for their captain. So a shocking acquisition. I certainly felt some kind of way about it because I don't like Brett Marchand at all as a person, as a player. I don't even really like him all that much, but it's low risk. And yeah, the part that sweets the pot for me
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
personally, is the fact you know 100%. You ended that Boston Bruins team, that core. You eliminated them back-to-back years, one time as an eighth seed, one time on the verge of elimination. You found a way to level it, and you just blew up their entire blueprint. So I like that. You know that you did that to the Rangers. You know that you did that to the Bruins.

This was a part of a whole new design for New Era, where they would take one of the logos and just slap it in the middle of a script logo. And for some teams, it works kind of cool. Like Chicago is all right. Cincinnati makes some sense. But some teams like the Mariners are unfortunate because you just have a shirt, a hat that says Masters on it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
There's also an Angels hat that kind of looks really close to anals. But the best one and the one that has certainly already received quite a bit of fanfare and is now out of stock is Detas. You've tried to get it? Yeah, I tried to purchase it because that's a hilarious hat and someone clearly didn't know what they were doing. You've got to have someone bilingual across that.

You have a hat that says boobs, essentially. which is going to be mad popular and already has been. But some of these designs, the quality control really makes you think.

Pending on the Carolina Hurricanes, it seems as though Tampa kind of reshaped themselves a little bit with Jake Gensel, but I'm never going to like Brad Marchand. And you can quote me, even if he scores a big-time goal in the Stanley Cup final. It's just never going to land right with me. It's always going to be weird. I like that I don't like him. I don't think that's true anymore, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Business of Being a James
That part is funny. It's funny to watch Boston Bruins fans like Portnoy and Katie Nolan all break Pete Blackburn. All of them have their breakdowns and he ends up going to the team that they hate, but they want to root for the guy. I saw the dropkick Murphys were in town for a concert and they were like, we're rooting for Florida the rest of the year.

The father thing is so freaking flimsy to me. Everything that Billy said, when Stephen A decided to do this, the timing was so goddamn weird because it was when Bronny was in the G League and actually playing well.

I think it came across on the broadcast that that atmosphere at the game looked really fun. And my buddy Master was at the game and I texted him.

Yeah, but I guess they did beat Buffalo, and I know that they were at home there, but I'm with you. If any other team that didn't have the success that Kansas City had attached to it entered this Super Bowl and went out that way, they'd be called a huge fraud. They'd be looked at as the Kerry Collins Giants or as the Stan Humphreys Chargers.

Yeah, where they become a punchline, but I think everyone kind of understands the greatness there. You mentioned the physicality. There was one moment in that game where it was very telling to me because Patrick Mahomes is Josh Allen levels when it comes to the officials and trying to get calls the entire time.

That is a textbook call. I have never seen Patrick Mahomes not get up and complain about what just happened there. He didn't at all. He kind of conceded. not just the game, but also conceded, I don't think I want to be out here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
It was 13 first downs in the first half to one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
I just never have seen Patrick Mahomes just kind of admit through the lack of something that I can't do this. I can't come back in this one. Even in that Tampa Super Bowl, he's still diving around and releasing a ball just this far off the ground. trying his hardest and still not giving up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
And last night, I mean, I think he even went out there and threw an absolute beauty to Xavier Worthy after the fact, because it's his job, he asked to. But him not complaining about that flag was just respectful of his opponent in that, man, you guys got us today. And also just, this kind of hurts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
I don't think I want to take, I think at that point he had like four straight negative plays and he was just over it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
It's really hard to do the analysis on a good team losing in the Super Bowl. We saw them all season. We were like, this Chiefs team is flawed, and eventually it will catch up to them. But it didn't until the Super Bowl. And now it's kind of like, well, do they really need to blow the whole thing up? I don't think so.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
They made it all the way to the Super Bowl, but they clearly were outmatched in this game in the trenches. So what do you do now? Yeah. You've already tried to put a lot into your offensive line. I guess you need to do even more. But at the end of the day, they still made it all the way to the Super Bowl. And they have Patrick Mahomes. There's not a whole lot you would trade for that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
One of them was a pick six.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
Right, it was the Chiefs offense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
Yeah, right. And they couldn't scheme the offense around the fact that the Eagles were getting pressure with four on the front the entire game.

Howdy, folks. It's Mike Ryan. I talk to you about Miller Time all the time, but we're in the wintertime right now, and one of my favorite pastimes is to crack open a Miller Lite and enjoy myself some Miller Time during the wintertime because when there's a brisk chill in the air, it just makes everything right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
My friends and I who live down here in South Florida can actually sit outside because it's not super muggy. We can thoroughly enjoy our Miller Time together. And for you listening, I know there's a lot of things going on right now. Sports news.

How much does Serena Williams hate Drake? And Drake, like all of this, kind of played himself with it. But there is a cultural significance of Serena Williams, who lost a sister to a drive-by in Compton doing the crip walk at the Super Bowl halftime show to get one over on Drake.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
Yeah. And like you kind of mentioned her in a song. I don't think there was a single it was correct me if I'm wrong. The entire cast of that halftime performance was was African-American.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
I mean, this one, the division when it came to this one, it was all too predictable, went down party lines. I thought it wasn't exactly subtle. I mean, when you have an American flag that is comprised of guys who are dancing as Crips and Bloods forming together, all black individuals forming an American flag, like you're not exactly going for subtlety. Hell, Sam Jackson was Uncle Sam.

So I understand why people who aren't ideologically, politically aligned feel threatened, and that is where the problem is. This isn't overtly political. They're not making you feel less than. Their appearance is just making you feel uncomfortable. You're telling on yourself.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
They've spoken to it. See, Bannon, I think, spoke to the Wall Street Journal. Flooding the zone. There's just so much that you can't seize on one thing because everything is happening all at once.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
It was the audio mixing for me and the song selection at the start made it hard to get in. Like when he has the bar at the start, like you pick the right time, but the wrong guy. I'm like, all right, what are we getting into? And then we're like, oh, it's a bit of a slow burn. And the audio mixing just isn't great.

Well, it's just, I don't, it was a part just for New Orleans. It was a celebration of New Orleans music, and they put out a bunch of luminaries, and Harry Connick Jr. was tickling the ivories and being MC. That makes sense. Anytime I've seen it, like, Harry Connick Jr. 's
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Just The Kind Of Guy I Am
been the face of New Orleans music scene for a very long time at all these award shows there's been hurricanes that have hit the area and Harry Connick Jr. has done a lot of great work and he's usually when they want to do something super New Orleans that speaks to the city's character and strength he's one of the first calls that they make
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Or like Joker in Batman 89. Maybe in the last 72 hours, he's completely changed the guy that he is. Have you considered that?

GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
What I did like about it was Fox updates the stats as it goes. Not all the networks do that, which always irritates me. Watching a game, you'd be like, oh, that was a big pass. Did I hit the over there? I don't know. They're not telling me. So I got to open an app on my phone and check the stats. I do like that they did that. But in general, I thought it was a big miss. It looks so simple.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
I was like... This is the Super Bowl, guys. Go big or don't go.

It was a nice vent. Like, I'm still laughing.

I miss more Mike Lee. It's such an off-season thing.

I'll give you a loser first. Myself and everyone of my age and skin color. The Super Bowl halftime show was not for us. It was not for me. It's okay. Doesn't have to be. We didn't understand it. We didn't like it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
that's okay you can stop whining online okay you didn't you didn't like it i thought it was fine but stop whining about it wasn't for you wasn't for you okay so that was the loser so you were the loser i was the loser all right uh i'm gonna go with a winner
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
I got another loser. Okay. The refs are making the Chiefs win narrative. Because there were bad calls all over on both sides. There were missed calls. Now, originally, not going to lie, the first bad call was A.J. Brown's offensive pass interference on that fourth down. How did you feel about that? Ooh, that was a bad call.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
And I was sitting there because I'm a big, the refs aren't doing anything different. They're just bad. They're not just bad for the Chiefs. And that was a big thorn in my argument. And then we got a make-up call with a phantom roughing, you know, roughing or sportsman-like penalty. And then Mahomes got his face smushed in on a play, and they didn't call it. And I'm like, okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Let's just throw this whole refs thing out. The Eagles won. Chiefs got no help. Everybody's like, we're back to normal. The refs are just bad. They're not Chiefs bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
We usually get that in the break. I'm very excited we got one on the show.

GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Thank you, Bear. The Bear who joined us early in the week said... wait till the end, then grab some unders, especially the ones that everybody is pounding on the over early. I was like, everybody's on Saquon. At one point, I could have got it at under 116 yards. 116 yards is ridiculous. Now, Saquon had been doing that, but at the same time, the number was, oh, it's going to get 95, 100.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
When the over-under's at 116, give me that all day. I took the under.

Before we get into the commercials, before we get into more Mike Lee, little mini rant on commercials. Mm-hmm. A commercial doesn't need a trailer. A commercial doesn't need commercials leading up to the commercial that you're going to air in the Super Bowl. That's part of it. They've become so big that they're not surprising anymore. Now you can watch them on social media and stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
The days before the Super Bowl, like, let me just let me just see it in its natural environment. And then you can give me all the behind the scenes and all that. But like leading up to it's like, oh, wait till wait till February 9th. You're going to see a Jeep commercial like you've never seen. Yeah, it's like, why can't I just enjoy the commercial? That's the point.

Jalen Hurts was all right. I mean, I thought... I thought giving him the MVP was a bit of a stretch. I mean, if you really wanted to give somebody the MVP, how about the front four of the Eagles? And I know giving four guys, but that's who wrecked the game. The Eagles didn't blitz once going into the third quarter, and yet Mahomes was pressured on every play. The Eagles defensive line, Josh –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
God bless football, Billy Gil.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Is it Josh Sweatermont? I always forget which one it is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
He had two and a half sacks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Caused the interception. That should have been your MVP, but once Jalen Hurts threw a meaningless touchdown, you're like, quarterback's going to get it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
It was 24 in the third quarter. I know that. It was 24 midway through the third quarter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
That's some Inception stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Travis Kelsey, nowhere to be seen for the first, what, three quarters? And then all of a sudden he caught a few, oh, they're not really covering me because they're playing deep. Yeah. And now it's like, oh, I caught my yards. No, you didn't. You were terrible.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
There are worse places to be. Exactly right. There are worse places to be. And some of them pick in the top five.

Good for me for betting over two and a half players to throw a pass and Kenny Pickett getting an absolutely meaningless throw attempt in there just to cash that bet in for me.

GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Hey, man. It's just... It's Vegas. That's how they air condition the desert.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
I thought he might have stolen the MVP when he had to pick six. I thought he might have had a chance. I was waiting for like one sack maybe or something to just be like, okay, that guy's the MVP, which would have been cool to see a rookie DB win MVP of the Super Bowl.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Yeah, I would say it's kind of the opposite. It was actually a pretty good season, and then all of a sudden we got that clunker to end it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Saquon got all the attention going in. Oh, it's my birthday. Saquon's going to have a big day. No, no, no, no. Cooper DeGene. That's whose birthday it was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Yeah, for me it was like up until then it was like, okay, here's where Mahomes' magic has to come in. And then when he threw the other interception to give them the ball on the five, I was like, oh, okay, this is just going to get out of hand now. Got it. Now we're just looking to finish off the Super Bowl snacks, finish your drinks, and cash a bet where we can. That's what we're aiming for.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
So they all expect – and by they all, I mean like my in-laws. They all expect me to sort of run this thing because of my job and who I am and all that stuff, sports. So everybody comes over. So we had probably 15 people, a lot of kids. Everybody left before halftime.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Except for like my friend who was there to watch the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Can you call it a Super Bowl party when people leave at halftime? Like if you're by yourself, if you're hosting a Super Bowl party and you're by yourself by the third quarter, can you call it a Super Bowl party? Or was it more of a pregame party? Or did people just come over for dinner?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Hold on. So my wife always buys me almost a good gift. Almost. And last year, she bought me a projector screen and a projector. And she was like, oh, we'll use it all the time. Well, here's the problem. We live in Connecticut. So you can't watch it at nighttime anywhere. Pretty much seven months of the year because it's too damn cold to go outside and watch something.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
And the other the times of the year that you can watch it, it doesn't get dark till nine o'clock. Well, guess what? Our kids go to bed at like eight thirty.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
So like we have we have used it not once. It's sitting in a box literally at my feet right now. And just hearing that you guys even have the option to watch it, I got a little bit jealous. When when did you get this?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
uh christmas two years ago oh wow and it still hasn't come out of the box in two years yeah oh no we took it out once to like be like oh look we could set it up and like we set it up in the living room to watch a game like uh a yukon game or something during the national championship and like that's it yeah but like i'm jealous that you guys even have the option to do this whole projector thing because i don't
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Because we're all undefeated today. Yeah, okay. I can go back to wearing this because I'm in first place just like you. Season starts today.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Monday Hangover: Season Hangover
Yeah, I'm in my Chiefs. Season starts today. And you get all the tweets from all the teams that didn't make the Super Bowl that said, season starts today. I think every team sent one out.

The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
I do think building a powerhouse is... I wonder the difficulty of building a powerhouse in a sport that's lower revenue or not quite as nationally known, right? Because theoretically, if you're dominant in that way, it might be something that becomes easier. At the same time, without the resources to recruit, maybe it's even more impressive to be able to have something that sustains that way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move

In 2021, Alexander Townley, a UK resident, gained notoriety for being paid $6,804 to watch every episode of The Simpsons and receive complimentary donuts. But there's no indication he got sick as part of the job. Of course, this is via Google AI, which is probably wrong. 30 seasons.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
I mean, they went 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004 as one run. Then 2009, 2010, 13, 14, 15, 16. And hadn't won since then. So this is a really long gap in the span of the time where they've been this dominant. It's almost, I mean, in that way, it's reminiscent of the San Antonio Spurs, right? Where they could, in that run with Duncan Ginobili... They would win a championship, maybe even win a couple.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
Turns out this guy was hired by a website to watch every episode of The Simpsons because there had been so many coincidences of them predicting the future that they wanted someone who could watch every single episode, take notes of every single episode, and send it back to this website to see if it correlated with anything that also got predicted in the future.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
They have done a bunch of predicting, but this one I think is AI generated. Let's find out together.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
I think they won one back-to-back or two out of three. Would go six or seven years and then be in the same situation again with that same core where Popovich, I guess, could be the parallel there. But this is a level of dominance that far surpasses what the Spurs were able to do, obviously.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
I'm going to show you how to do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
So it's the Gino Auriemma dynasty is really what you're saying, because because theoretically each each run of players had their own mini dynasty within this long term one. And that's why that's why I think the word drought is actually makes sense, because if you're taking it in this run of time where he's been the coach nine years is a huge chunk of that. Right. That's.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
a quarter of the time he's been a coach and that they went that long without a championship considering the amount of championships they have I think that what Jess is saying makes sense which is the game has evolved so much in the time since Gino's last championship was won at UConn with the group of players that he had at the time that now you can look at this in some ways is more impressive that he was able to now in a new age of women's college basketball lead a team to a championship with a dynamic player like Paige Beckers and the
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
Well, especially in college sports, I think so, given the amount of older college coaches stepping away from the game, right? In whatever sport you choose, look across all of them. There's all these coaches, particularly we look at college football, right? And all of these guys who were, you know, established powerhouses have stepped away now. Even down here, Jim Laranega at UM, like...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
He stepped away because the game is changing, passing you by all of these different things to see Gino now in this stage, in this iteration of women's college basketball, having this amount of success. I mean, look, the recruiting has always been there. So you could argue it was actually like not winning over the last nine years is a surprise considering how good their teams have been.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
But to be here now has to be impressive. And especially when you look at the amount of time that's passed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
I've been to probably about 100.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
Of course I've seen the belt move, David. But I'm trying to keep us pro-Semite over here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
It just means it was a good party.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
Because, mind you, she was a two seed, right? So you can add a couple more this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
There are four. There are four number one seeds. That's sort of cheating, isn't it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Building Up To The Belt Move
Yeah, because that means you have to not only make it deep enough in the tournament to face these number one seeds that often, but to beat six of them, not just having gone up against six, but to have six wins over one seeds in the tournament, considering how good you have to be to get there. I don't know.

It's great that you're above it. Why'd you give me a three then, huh? Okay.

He may want to pretend that he doesn't remember me on the show, but he gave me a three. Okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Needs a Vacation
Yeah, but it was easy to deduce that I at least got a 3, given where I was ranked.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Needs a Vacation
Yeah, you can't say that. We have established. You can't call someone a Hall of Famer if there isn't.

So where are you sitting? I don't know. I have a pretty good idea of where they're going to put you. How many people are in your crew?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Needs a Vacation
I have a pretty good idea of where they're going to put you, and that is you may see Marino. Wow. You are where the VIPs go. I don't think that's what people— How much are the tickets, Dan? I once saw Shane McMahon there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Where you're going to be sitting? Get the smoked old-fashioned.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Because you're a journalist. It's far, too. It's a far way. Just get it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Well, I think they have people out there spotting to see who's crossing the street.

Hour 2: Mark Needs a Vacation
No, don't. It's pandering. Now it's a silly thing. Okay. It's pandering. That was not a great honor. I didn't think it was a silly thing. Thank you. It's a great honor that they reserve for all-time greats, like the greatest ever, to do their things. But okay.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Needs a Vacation
You aren't Cuban-born in that you're 100% Cuban, right? I'm Cuban-American. So you're Cuban-American-born. That's right. But that's not how you say that. Just like Cody Rhodes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Needs a Vacation
Yeah, he had to have been asked first. Wow.

No, but you can't just... They're not going to let Mike Malley go into where you're going. Yeah, Malley's not going to... Malley! You're going to have Ethan Badowski show up with you and think that he can have some of this sushi?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

love for club Shay Shay yeah they were just talking about John Cena's heel turn and they were showing very graphic images of Cody Rhodes laying in a pool of his own blood not since the Bay of Pigs have I seen a Massachusetts man leave a Cuban man hung out to die he's right about that Cody is in the other room again Cody what what thoughts do you have from the other room from the penalty box Cody Cody is here

You're trying to open the door back out? No, I'm not. No, don't do it, man. I do not want it open anymore. If you're talking about John Cena. No, thank you. Thank you for all of your work. You reference the STFU. Okay. Which is like an STF, only he adds the U at the end to make it seem like he's saying FU.

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during ad reads, like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
Well, the mystery aspects of this story, you learn something new every day. However, it seems like we're not going to really get some closure to this for quite some time as John Cena has already traveled back to Africa to finish filming. So we don't know if The Rock has not been advertised for Raw.

Howdy, folks. It's Mike Ryan. I talk to you about Miller Time all the time, but we're in the wintertime right now, and one of my favorite pastimes is to crack open a Miller Lite and enjoy myself some Miller Time during the wintertime because when there's a brisk chill in the air, it just makes everything right.

Well, I'd probably press the gas on wide receiver because if you get franchised, people pay more for a wide receiver, a prime top of the food chain type wide receiver. So that's where you probably start. And I think a lot of teams, it may not actually be up to Travis Hunter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

They may see that the value is so strong in one direction that they don't even run the risk of putting them on the opposite side of the ball.

I didn't know that this is how pardons worked, that you can just pardon people for making whoopsies that stain their reputation in their own sport. Greg, do you have any thoughts here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
Is there any particular reason why you're making this a hill to die on for Travis Hunter?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
He's actually played the game quite well so far.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
The reason why it was such a big storyline that Deion Sanders was going to influence this whole draft process so much is because at the time, it looked like, oh, Shador and Travis Hunter, they might be one and two. That is not the case anymore. Their odds to be drafted number one are long. And you have a situation now for the first time that you have three players that are vying for number one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
The last time there was this much mystery surrounding the number one pick, I think it was the year that Baker got drafted where the Browns were very good at keeping that a secret. But there is all sorts of uncertainty now, especially with the injury situation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
and you don't know if like i know rosenhouse has come out and said that abdul carter should be fine does not need surgery he's actually been advised against surgery but that is a pretty big thing i think ultimately if you're looking for job security the safe thing might be take the the bona fide pass rusher the number 11 from penn state that always works and you could always throw up your hands and say look we know we have a quarterback issue to address we can handle that next year which is top to bottom a better draft class for that position right
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Who would have had it as baseball being the one entity to stand up against one of these executive orders? Like, no, no, no, now we're going too far. You're testing your power, pal. You can't. We're Major League Baseball. God damn it.

I could not tell you Adrian Brody's third best movie. He was good at Peaky Blinders. Angels in the Outfield? He was good as Pat Rowley.

Oh, so you're talking about Cena still? Yes, these are all the very same notes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
It's way too soon. I don't know where we go from here. It feels like over the weekend, we reached a point of no return. Our strongest alliances falling by the wayside, the memories that we had getting along with so many across the globe, knowing that John Cena was our tried and true hero. Knowing that he had every opportunity, maybe even flirted with a line. You think back to ECW one night stand.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
If Cena wins, we riot. Still going into the face of that and holding on to his principles. Now, for what? Just so you can get a record-breaking 18th World Championship because you know you don't have it anymore? So you have to align yourself with the final boss.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
In many respects, it makes perfect sense that Cena would align himself with The Rock, being that he's always wanted what The Rock has had. He's always tried to get what The Rock has had, but he's never quite been able to push it to that threshold. Even in sports entertainment, he has never been able to take it to the heights that The Rock did. Now, he did a pretty good job.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
He was the face of the company, as we've all established, but he was just falling just short, even in his pursuits of Hollywood. falling just short, always compared to the man. And now the man is offering his entire world to you. You get to pick my brain, and you get to be a world champion for the 19th time.

Say hi to Taylor for me. It was his birthday over the weekend.

Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
God, I hope the first question is about Cena. I could talk about this all day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
It's dusty. He was a baby face for 20 years. He kicked off the Ruthless Aggression era by slapping Kurt Angle in the face. And since then, he's taken us on a whirlwind. This has been years since we've done this. But it's also been years since he's been a fixture in the main event scene.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
He's carrying quite the losing streak, which is why he would find himself in this situation to turn to The Rock, knowing that he's not good enough anymore on his own.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
No! Do you mean in terms of friendship? That is ridiculous.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
Give me that. It's an open-ended question. In terms of national and international stature?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

And what were Travis Scott's motivations? Because he wasn't just like standing idly by. He took an active role in the attack.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
It could be accolades, too. That's why I think John Cena did this, because he's got all the money in the world. What is it that The Rock can offer him that he can't get on his own? A superstardom that is unattainable if he just stays in his lane? That's why learning at the knee of The Rock has certainly its benefits. What I don't understand is Travis Scott came to the ring looking for a fight.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
He had already showed up to the squared circle, not liking Cody Rhodes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Strangles Billy On Live Television
It could be $100 million. What's the price of your soul? Because that's what John Cena gave up to The Rock. That was the asking price from The Rock to Cody Rhodes. Please, please get him out of here. I'm not going to do that. And you know, we keep invoking souls now. Final penalty, two minutes. Ramblin'. You got to get out.

The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
John Cena... für die erste Zeit, seitdem er als Champion Babyface in den frühen 2000er Jahren geworden ist, hat er sich während seines letzten Runds mit der WWE gehalten. Es war ein Moment, in dem man sich fragte, wo du warst. Die Erde stand immer noch, Peter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Honestly, that's just 24 hours before John Cena turned heel. In terms of seismic events, I think we can get through Friday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
And with that knowledge, John Cena still in Canada, north of the border, turned on the American nightmare Cody Rhodes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
We also turned our backs to C-Nation and... Hunderts, Tausende von Make-A-Wish-Kindern, die ihren Wunsch erfüllt haben, von John Cena. Also du gehst Cena über den amerikanischen Heel auf die Ukraine. Du denkst, Cena wäre noch größer? Ich denke, wir können uns aus dem, was am Freitag passiert ist, ausdenken. John Cena kommt nicht zurück. Glaubst du, er wird auf Make-A-Wish-Heel?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Can't do this. The children are our future.

The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Peter, wo gehen wir von hier? Mit C-Nation? Ja. Weht er verschiedene Kleidung? Kann er mit den Schuhen rauskommen? Weht er mit den schwarzen Schuhen? Weht er mit den Schuhen rauskommen?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Ich weiß nicht, ob er das kann. Du musst die Schuhe auch heilen. Anstatt nie zu geben, ist es einfach zu geben. Ich würde das gerne sehen.

Nein, ich würde es gerne sehen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
I guarantee you, Udonis has probably written something more recently than Dan. I'm going to find a Players Tribune article to back this up.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
You're not an active journalist anymore. I've actually gone through it. Jack Nicklaus, Udonis Haslam and Rahim Moser have all written more recently than you have. Wow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
It's a great honor. I will too. Why are you saying it's not a great honor? They don't just do this willy nilly. They're all people like Olympic gold medalists. They're all people of repute. He led the league in rushing touchdowns one year. Everybody has something impressive on their resume that has done that. Relationship building, Dan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
I think vamos gatos is let's go cats. So I think that's it. The only thing that isn't actually grammatically correct is the lack of comma.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
I think you should look at it as even a bigger honor, because out of all the Hispanic leaders in this community that have the reputation that would recommend they take part in this great honor, you're a topic. Yeah, why'd they pick you?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Yeah, well, we don't know who said no. In fact, I'm going to text Ron. Ron probably said no. Ron McGill definitely said no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Don't do that. Why did they ask him? Don't do that. You've done that move way too much.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
It's a winning move.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
It used to be. He's no longer a television personality. You're no longer a journalist.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You definitely discredited yourself long before that. I think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Even back then it was awfully convenient. Alright, write quarterly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Yeah, this is why you should be saying no to it. There is no doubt in my mind, whatever is asked of you, and I think it's very little, you're going to be very bad at it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

It's easier to just say... But you're not trying to avoid it, you're trying to put it down, like you're too cool for school, like it's not some great honor, which it is. In fact, if you do a great job, they might invite you back, because everyone's gonna be like, remember all that juice Levitard had?

Exactly.

Du musst es essen. Das ist ein unglaublicher Moment. Wiederum, sie machen das nicht vor jedem Spiel. Sie machen das nur, wenn sie eine Celebrität groß genug haben und ein Spiel, das groß genug ist, dass du eine superfamilienlose Celebrität haben musst, um da hoch zu kommen und diesen Moment zu treffen und die Leute verrückt zu machen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

At your age, you need to prove the doubters wrong. Du musst die Bühne auf eine bestimmte Komponente treffen und eine Arena voll von Leuten finden, die sagen, los geht's, Panthers. Wenn du nicht diese sehr niedrige Bar klären kannst, dann müssen wir alle uns selbst anschauen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

And look at how LeBron – I'm so pissed at him. I'm more pissed at him after the Luka trade than I ever was with the Jimmy stuff. How are they not calling us?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Age of the Curmudgeon
I think this is a tomato-tomato thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Age of the Curmudgeon
But the tweets are like, well, on the other hand, your favorite basketball team just got Luka Doncic if you're a Cowboys fan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
More or less. It would be great if they hire one of the coordinators from one of the teams and the coordinator's like, I am so committed to the New Orleans Saints. I'm going to take over right now. You guys are going to have to find someone else to guide you through the Super Bowl because my heart now lies in New Orleans. Actually, you know what?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
If the coordinator wins the Super Bowl, they can say that they brought a Super Bowl to New Orleans before they've even taken the job. Like, I know what it's like to win a Super Bowl in New Orleans, and it would actually be the truth. So I like this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
That's going to be a good one with you and Funny Marco's two guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
so it's super bowl week we're we're headed towards new orleans kind of getting their staggered arrivals slowly trickling in stugas leaves after the show today we'll get in there he'll be there early tomorrow i leave early tomorrow you guys don't care about a trial sketch i don't know why i'm doing this but as one does week of the super bowl where we have a rematch to one of the uh one of the better super bowls as of late we are breaking down off air
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
the Las Vegas Raiders and what it is that they've done this off season and what it is that they have. And you know, it's a strange time to be doing that granted, but also we're going to have a week full of breaking down this game. So we want to talk Raiders. I don't see why we can't just talk some Raiders, you know, they bring in chip Kelly. They brought in Pete Carroll.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Tom Brady seems to be calling all the shots, which probably is going to be a disaster. But who knows? They still don't have a quarterback, but that's what their focus seems to be now headed into the draft. So a new day for the Las Vegas Raiders, Stugatz.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I'm proud of you because in years past, when you said, what does that lead me to believe, you would have said Tom Brady's coming back to be the quarterback of the Raiders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I'm very surprised and proud of you for not going in that direction. So congratulations to Gots. Yep. To growth.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
big day forgot didn't you look at our little our little boy no i said brady's name on the front end billy's right he knows i never miss a brady opportunity especially when it's talking about brady coming back but brady's not coming back he's not coming back the broadcasting thing some people are saying wasn't great look if you ask me i thought he's been fine as a broadcaster hasn't been good hasn't been terrible he's gotten fine yeah he's gotten better yeah but like i
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
know why people care so much about the broadcasters and why they complain so much about the broadcasters like unless you're saying the wrong play or the wrong team scored or you're like completely confusing everything he's been fine enough like who care I honestly I don't even really think about it at times like I'll just tune into the game especially if I'm watching red zone and all of a sudden I hear his voice like yeah watch this game for five minutes didn't realize Brady was on it who cares right
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Well, no. Our jobs are some of the most important jobs in the world. They put us up there. Just below the armed services, obviously. Yep.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Even more or less with doctors and the likes. You know what I mean? Sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Armed services, teachers... And then like us and like maybe doctors, lawyers. And then like, I don't know the people that I can tell you who's at the bottom of the list. And like, you know what? I'm not going to tell you who's at the bottom of the list. I want to hear who's at the bottom of the list. I kind of want to hear the people that write parking tickets. They're they're down here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I'm sure they're nice people, but you friends have picked one of the absolute worst jobs. Also, Actually, never mind. Go on. Say it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Say it to somebody. I got in a car accident, as you guys know, a little over a month ago. Yeah. And the driver was in his 90s. Mm-hmm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
and uh and when they they filled out the report they didn't issue blame to me or him because i said like yeah i had a green turn arrow so i went and the guy just completely ran a red light right and like and drilled me and then uh and then so we go we go through all the insurance and his insurance is like well he was not at fault i'm like how on earth was he not at fault and they're like well a lot so i go i have to pay to buy the police report the police reports are like well
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Driver A, which was me, said he had a steady green arrow and driver B said he had a steady green light. So we don't know what happened. And then back and forth with the insurance and boom, I'm out now. The deductible, my insurance is going to go a ball because this 91 year old just either lied or.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Had no idea what color the light was while he's driving around in this giant pickup truck, just ramming into people. And I will say this, and this is a controversial stance. Okay. And God bless football to all. I will say this about the 91 year old. If he lied to that police officer. Yeah. Well, one, I've thought, how far do I want to push this? He's 91, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
How much am I going to go above the deductible that I have to pay on a principled stance? Should I take him to small claims court? Should I take him to Judge Judy? Where can we go so that I can get the justice that I feel like I deserve? Because this is not something that's just going to cost me my deductible.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Again, and now going to have higher insurance for years to come because this man either didn't know where he was, what color the light was, or he lied. And I would say this. If I get to 91, there's different ways to look at this. If I get to 91, I am going to make sure to do everything on the straight and narrow to try to...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
out undo any wrongs that i had done in my life so that i don't spend the rest of my life in hell so i'm trying to do so you're gonna spend your 90s atoning for your sins a life i'm trying to yeah so that i'm i'm i'm definitely not adding to the list that you know take me to the the great beyond where there's fire and i don't know if there's brimstone there but where the fire is you know what i mean like i'm not gonna be lying in my 90s and trying to punch my ticket to the
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah, well, thanks for bringing it back to football because it is Super Bowl week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I did want to send somewhat of a lippy email back to the person that said this was denied and say, guys, you are the ones that are reckless here by insuring this man who should not be on the road. This should not be going on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Listen, if your parents if your parents are still driving or like when I'm older, I think that's the I would get them a car like that, like a big SUV or something just to make sure. Like, let's make sure like me, mom, people are safe when they're driving around just in case. But also they're driving around tanks, which is not safe for anyone else involved. Sure. Yeah. Anyway, Super Bowl.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Oh, okay. Well, there you go. Thanks, guys. Don't listen next week. We just cut to the chase and see you the day after the Super Bowl to see if Stugas was right or not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah, I mean, it's nice. It's fan voting, so thank you to the fans because they're the reason that we won Sports Podcast Awards, American Football Podcast of the Year, which is very wordy, if I'm going to be honest with you. Yeah, it is. Hey, what are you going to do? We won a British award. Thank you, Brits.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I think you keep mentioning funny Marco. I think that you should talk to your daughters to ask them what you should talk to funny Marco about. Like, this seems like someone that would be in their sphere that they could kind of help you with. Also, if you want a connection point, uh, Funny Marco, we ran into, didn't talk to, but we ran into at kickoff for the season this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
He was running around also the tailgates recording some stuff on videos. So if you want to have a connection point with Funny Marco, he was also there running around the tailgates doing some stuff. But he had like a bunch of handlers, so we couldn't even get within like arms distance of him to talk to him about anything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
It was definitely not Bad Bunny that we had on. It was Lil Dicky. Oh, Lil Dicky. Lil Dicky.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Do me a favor. Don't ask your kids about Funny Marco for all the parties involved. Just head into that interview with the exact information that you have now. No more, no less. Don't look them up. Don't do anything. Just head into it exactly as you are. No prep? No prep. You don't need prep. I think the two of you can kind of get along and just kind of roll with it together, you know?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
They don't call him unfunny, Marco.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
That we expected to win it? Yeah. No, I did not expect to win it this year at all. I was trying to sound more confident than I was. Yeah, we were up against Shannon. We were up against Mina. We were up against the Kelseys. We had a lot of stiff competition this year. I honestly was very surprised that we won because last year we didn't even play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
That's Mikey. God bless football is presented by Smirnoff. We do game days. Please drink responsibly. The Smirnoff Company, New York, New York. Sad times to God. The season is coming to an end, as we've discussed. It is going to be an exciting week, hopefully, and hopefully an exciting Super Bowl. But I can't help. And I know that you're probably the same as I am.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I can't help but start to think towards next season already, even though this season is not officially done. There's only one game left. So I feel like the scrambling is going to start soon to start previewing next season. We had the senior bowl. We have the combine coming up. We have the draft. It's right around the corner.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I don't know if you're doing big, big boards this year for the draft, but yeah,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Green Bay-ish. I think that I heard, and this is just speculation, so it will not be Green Bay. But I think, I think... I think we may be going to Nashville since they have the number one pick in the draft.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
To do a draft show. I think. I don't think that's finalized. I think still in the works location TBD, but I think the last we heard that was the location, which will be very, very exciting for the first pick. And then after that, we'll kind of be like, so we're in Nashville and the... Yeah. The Packers have selected, and then it's like, okay, no one cares. They already got their number one pick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Interesting. But if it's not, then they were on the record saying this is a generational tie. It doesn't matter. It's a big risk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I mean... That would be really funny. Honestly, that would be hilarious. It's freaking Nashville. They trade the pick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
But thank you again to all the fans who voted for us because it's a fan voting award. So you guys are really the ones that helped us win this. So thank you guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Here we are at this honky-tonk and, you know, didn't go as planned.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah, come on. Come on, man. What are you doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Listen, you want to go to Green Bay so bad, let's use some PTO on that, friend. You know what I mean? Let's not take an entire crew of people to Green Bay in the middle of April.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Oh. OK, so you're ahead of the game. I was going to say we should start looking forward, but you've already created your power ranking. So you're ahead of us trying to get ahead of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
yep uh billy we're headed out to new orleans uh it is hopefully for you i am headed out to new orleans uh billy's not feeling well are you okay billy i'm worried about you man um i i'll be fine i guess we have to like 24 hours to get through this and then and hop on a bird and then once i'm on the once i land we'll power through right once i land if i have to be on radio row
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah, sure. Let's do the top five headed into next year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Well, let me let me ask you something just for clarification purposes. Yes. These power rankings are headed into the season. Correct. Because we don't we don't know the we we don't know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
the schedules yet we know who the teams will play but we don't know where and when yeah i guess we know the where but we don't know where yeah we don't know the when so this is headed into the season your power ranking this is after the draft everything you've accounted for all of that this is the team's post-draft it's kickoff this thursday yeah boom these are your power rankings yes these are my four months early or whatever it is more than that like eight months early
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Okay. Yeah. All right. You ready? Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Well, and Cliff Kingsbury opted not to leave for a head coaching job. He's staying put. He wants to ride with Jaden, so we'll see if that works out for Cliff. It won't, but we'll see if that works out for Cliff. Not because of Jaden, by the way, just because it never works out for old Cliff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Oh, wow. Yeah, you like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Wow. You can tell those people that in person when you go by yourself to cover the draft there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah. Yeah. Who are you going to put there? I mean, I know who you're going to put there, I think. Who do you think I'm going to put there? Let's see how well you guys know me. Well, I mean, the thing is, you know who I actually think you're going to end up putting there is the Chiefs. Because you think that I think you're going to put the Eagles there. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
So then you would put the Chiefs there just to kind of confuse the situation. And now you're rethinking that because you didn't lock this in anywhere. So now you could still be going back and forth.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You seem to be erasing there, too. I saw you scratch something out. I was just adding. We know it's adding. There's only one team. We know it's not the Lions. We know it's not the Vikings. You already told us that. We know it's not going to be like the 49ers or anyone like that. No, no. So it's going to be either the Eagles or the Chiefs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Well, this is also, he's telling us this as if it's the Monday leading into kickoff. So he already knows all of those results. I will say, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
What's wrong? They may have a chance. They may have a chance. It's very different than number one on the power rankings. They may have a chance. It's like a five maybe on your list. Not one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
with some performance enhancers, so be it. I'll do that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You should copyright four-peat right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I mean, that guy probably has one in Buffalo. Yeah. Just call like two, two, two, two, two, two, two. You'll get a hold of him. He has all the phone numbers. Yeah, he's got all the phone numbers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
He copyrighted it. I mean, the NFC had a three-peat yesterday in the Pro Bowl games. However, I don't think anyone is making NFC three-peat shirts, so I don't think that Pat's going to make money off of the NFC's Pro Bowl game three-peat. Right. But some are saying...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
maybe maybe pat's greatest move ever some are saying not me i wouldn't dare right i mean basketball legend look at all the teams you put together championship coach some are saying best thing you ever did was copyright three repeat some said that right right got it so not getting lebron james or Some are saying.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I mean, others would say maybe if we weren't counting all of our future earnings from 3P, maybe we could have inquired about Luca down here, get rid of Jimmy Butler, the two birds with one stone situation, get rid of one disgruntled superstar, bring in another superstar who you could sign up to a long extension, maybe fix the trajectory of your organization. But not me. I wouldn't say that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
They're going to start playing now, friends. What do you mean? All of a sudden, all the ailments are going to be fixed up real quick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You could almost count that as lunch. 5.15 is, yeah, that's late lunch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I mean, you got something. You're coming back on Monday, the day after the Super Bowl.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Who scheduled who scheduled the game on Sunday? What is this?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Super Bowl Sunday. I mean, a little respect by the planning committee here. What time is that game at?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You know, I wonder if that would be a bad experience. I'll tell you this much. I will admit this. I was on a plane yesterday and checked in on the Pro Bowl games. I was going to watch the Pro Bowl games to be ready for today's massive recap of the Pro Bowl games where we can give our winners and losers presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka. Please drink responsibly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I watched the tug of war and watched two battles in the tug of war. I saw Peyton telling his team, hey, if we win the tug of war, we're right back in this. And I said, you know what? This isn't for me. Pro Bowl games, I don't think are my thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
The purity of the game. I think that's what it was, is no one loves football more than me. And I think that's what happened is I was like, this... This is not football. When Jackson Smith and Jigba's out there and he's throwing multiple interceptions, we're good. Yeah. You know what? No need. I like the scoring. We scored like 140 points almost combined between the two teams. Mm-hmm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
What are we doing? What are we actually doing this for at this point?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You never know. Emergency. After all those interceptions. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah, I think it should be. I think it should be nice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
This back to back trips thing, though, was not a good idea. Yeah. Yeah. And something seems to be going around. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I was in Georgia for the weekend. I was there Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Yesterday we did a little Georgia aquarium action. Flew back, got in at night, and my family was sick the entire weekend. I was doing well. I thought I had dodged it all. I mean, I thought I would get this in New Orleans, and then lo and behold, it found me. So I'll bring it up to you in New Orleans. Don't worry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I'll give you a gift that keeps on giving. Mike, do you want some of this? I'm good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
It fits. I was thinking if there's an outbreak and I'm patient, zero. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Now, I theoretically wouldn't get any of the players sick because we're not going to run into any of the ones that's playing in the game, more than likely.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Wow. You know what I was thinking the other day? What? I'm glad that we have this forum to discuss this. Michael Jordan...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
is praised for the flu game right yeah everyone's michael jim gutsy performance wow what a guy the flu game look at him he was there and he came out and yeah you know he was you know he's on his deathbed essentially and he played a game great game whatever right some people question whether or not he actually had the flu but anyway go ahead
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Well, the point is, like, I feel like if Michael Jordan tried to pull that in this year, the year of our Lord 2025, he would be like severely reprimanded. Like there's none of this come to come to work this horribly sick that you're going to get everyone else sick business going on. You know what I mean? Like, I don't I don't think the flu game would be as well received now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I think he'd be looked at as a very selfish person.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Well, not Phil. Someone else. Like someone in HR. I don't know if there's like HR on like NBA teams, but like someone in HR would be like, hold your horses, fella. You're not coming in like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
This is God bless football.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I mean... That would be great. I mean, people are clamoring for that. Yes. You know? I don't think Andy's involved in that, but I do think that maybe the media is around it. They're like, well, this is a very selfish movie. Could have gotten so many people sick. And think of all the hundreds of millions of people watching at home and what an example that's setting. And what if we're able to...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
past germs through the television and he's gotten everybody else sick and it was just you know just one of those things uh before we go back to football real quick for a second yeah so the match just gave luca to the lakers huh like That's just how the NBA works now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You just give someone your best player because LeBron's on your team and you're trying to, like, I guess maybe win him one on the way out, maybe boost some NBA ratings. Like, how did that just happen? They've been talking for weeks behind the scenes and then all of a sudden no one knew about this and he's just a Laker. Like, that's crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Yeah, I mean, it had to be Pro Bowl weekend.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
Had to be that weekend. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
You know what? Winners and losers presented by Spirinoff, the world's number one vodka. Please drink responsibly. Winners, the Lakers. Losers, the GM. of the Mavericks because I was going to say no one will ever forget this guy, but I don't even remember his name. No one will remember him, but also he's a rare guy. I never knew him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I was going to say he's the rare guy that no one will ever remember and no one will never forget at the same time. Who is he? So I saw this thing, and I'm wondering how real it is, because you never know with the internet. So I saw this thing that was saying, I guess he was involved in the negotiations with Steph Curry when Steph was deciding between Under Armour and Nike.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
And those negotiations went terribly, and he has denied some of the allegations in said presentation. But in the presentation... Steph was called by the wrong name. He had a slide that had Kevin Durant's name on it. And when they did call him his name, they pronounced it wrong. And they were offering significantly less than Under Armour and refused to match the money on Under Armour.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
So those negotiations obviously did not go well for Nike. And Steph never signed with Nike. And then he went on to be... The face of Under Armour. So this GM was somewhere in that whole situation back in the day. And that's where we had seen his name previous to this situation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I should have gone with Tank.

GBF- Super Week: 91 Year Old Drivers
I do like, before we get back to football, it is Super Bowl week. I don't know why we're doing this. And it's 100% my fault. Yeah, no, it's 100% my fault.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I'll be watching the game with room service in my hotel room. Mike and I will have to do the show Monday in New Orleans, and then we'll fly home.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
No, no, no, no. I will be in my hotel room either with my son Mike or alone with room service. And enjoying the commercials, enjoying the game, enjoying laying down and watching the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Yeah, pitching products, going to different events, doing the show every day, all week. As you well know, it's a long week. Again, I'm not complaining. I get to go cover the Super Bowl, but yeah, it's a long week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I could. My only problem with what he said was the room service. Like, Mike, New Orleans is a food town. Let's not just do room service.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I will be there seven days previous to the Super Bowl. I will get my fill of New Orleans food. I will get my fill. Every single day, multiple times a day of New Orleans food. By the time Sunday rolls around, I'll be like the person at the end of a 10-day cruise who has gained 20 pounds and is trying to get back to some normalcy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
It has to be up there, right? As far as food city and as far as hosting a big event, it's right at number one. Because again, when the media or we all descend on an event, it's not about the event. You know this, Stu. It's about how does it affect us? How does it affect our week? Do we have to get in a car? Can we walk? How convenient is where we have to go? And New Orleans is all walkable.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
You don't have to get, I mean, I'm, I'm staying in a hotel that's connected to the convention center. So every day I just walk down a hallway, radio row, do the show. And I'm about a 15, 20 minute walk to the quarter to go get all the food that I want to the events that I'm going to go to. It is so convenient. That's why it's a top the list and the food is out of this world.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Now listen, Vegas you could walk. Vegas I was fine with because I walked to a lot, especially you could walk to the game, which is fantastic. That's one of the great things. And, you know, there's a lot to do in Vegas, obviously. It's different in New Orleans. The food is second to none. You can find so many variations of food.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
And with the French Quarter, you can go to an established place like Brennan's, which everybody's going to try and go to. Or for me, man, I like little holes in the wall, little dive places where you can just sit and have a beer or two. and have some nice gumbo or something, you know, and call it a day. You know, I'm past the point of staying out late.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I used to do that when I first went to Super Bowls. I'd go out and meet guys I played with or against and go to the different parties and wake up and do the show. Man, I'm so past that. I'll go out for an early dinner unless I have an event I have to go to, and I'll be in bed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I love it. Mike, I'm sick of dancing around this thing. Let's just go right to it. I need a Mount Rushmore of food cities in America for you, and I want you to take out the event part of it. Doesn't matter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Philly's up there. New Orleans is certainly up there. The Carolinas with the barbecue is up there as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Anywhere in the Midwest with a good steak, right? I'm a big steak and potatoes guy. Good steak. I have to be somewhere where there's like water to get like seafood. I'm not going to be in the Midwest and, you know, order, you know, fish, even though I'm sure there are places that fly it in and it's really good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
So I'm more by region of food, barbecue food, steak and potatoes and seafood type of a deal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Kansas City is definitely up there. When I played, it's the best smelling stadium there is. And when I played there, when we used to leave and go to our buses, there used to be people that would give us barbecue. which was phenomenal. I mean, you got to get on the bus with barbecue. So that's an awesome stadium, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I don't know about smelling, but the worst to get into and out of is a buffalo. It's tough to get in and out of, and obviously the weather can be awful as well. So that's probably a place that I'm not all that hyped up to go, even though it's a great team to go watch play. It's just, it's tough to get in and out of.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
No, I appreciate the greatness because in this day and age of football where a team can turn over so quickly. They've kept their core together, and they've filled in spots every year, and they continue to win. So I'm one of those that appreciates greatness.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I get it when people say they want something different than Michael Jordan winning a title, than Tiger Woods winning a tournament, than Golden State winning an NBA championship. I get people getting fatigued and, A, wanting their team there instead of that person or that team that's winning it. But I certainly appreciate the greatness. And...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I don't think, and he gets talked about a lot, but I don't think Andy Reid gets talked about enough. We talk about Mahomes. He's a Hall of Famer already. Travis Kelsey, a Hall of Famer. What the Chiefs are doing. But Andy Reid, not Bill Belichick. Andy Reid is going to end up the all-time winning of playoff games. He's only a couple away from Belichick. He's going to blow by him in that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
And I think he's at 301 and Shula's at 347. That's four years of 12-win years. which I think he can do. So I think it's Andy Reid that's going to hold all the victory records as far as head coaches are concerned. I don't know if he'll equal Belichick in Super Bowls, but I think he'll pass him in postseason wins and pass Don Shula in wins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Andy Reid is going to go down, already should go down as one of the great coaches of all time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Wow, that's a, I mean, listen, you have to go by results, right? And I mean, that would be a pretty good stamp on his resume. I don't know if anybody will ever consider him that, but he can hold up the sheet that said, look what I've done. I mean, he'll have that on his side.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
But if he loses, he's fired, right? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I mean, is it unreal? I mean, how many games into the season this year we were talking about his longevity being an Eagles coach? And even the last game when Jalen Hurts says, you know, Nick finally took the straight jacket off me, and Nick says, oh, he was just joking around. No, he wasn't. No, he wasn't joking around. Nope. I mean, this is a team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
But listen, Jalen not happy with the passing game. Listen to what Pat Mahomes said after they won the Super Bowl back-to-back. He said he wasn't satisfied with the way the offense played, right? That the defense was playing better and he wanted that offense to get back to the powerful offense. I get it from a quarterback standpoint. You want to be a high-flying offense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
But this is an Eagle offense that's built around the offensive line in Saquon Barkley.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Yeah, yeah. And listen, like I picked Buffalo against Kansas City, I'm going to pick Philadelphia. against Kansas City. I think Philly is overall the better team, save for, like you said, the coach, which the play calls that Andy Reid pulls out, the roll right to get a first down on the last drive, and then that third and seventh
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
where he had motioned trips to the left so Pat Mahomes could tell it was man coverage. Then all three receivers ran crossing routes, and Samaje Pirine ran out to the left, and the man covering him just got caught up in a six-person wash. And Pirine was wide open to catch the ball and run for the first down. That's just incredible by Andy. But I just, man, I like the Eagles.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
What a great game it was the last time, except for as a former defensive player, seeing a 38-35 game was a little rough, even though it was fun to cover, that's for sure. But I like the Eagles in this one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I mean, wow. I mean, it really is something else. I mean, but Spagnuolo's already a D coordinator with the most Super Bowl rings. He can add a fifth. He can add a fifth as a D coordinator. And I forgot which defender. Was it Chris Jones? On Kansas City, you said as long as nobody makes him a head coach, that means we still keep winning. Yes. It's truly amazing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
You know how it is. I'm not confident at all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
It has nothing to do with that. His friend is Andy Reid.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
It's amazing how people tell other, when Jerry Rice wasn't going to be with the 49ers, don't go to another team, retire. Tim Brown, not with the Raiders, don't go to another team, retire. How the hell do you tell people to retire if they still want to A, coach, or B, play, if they still have the want to to do the work in the offseason? Because that's why players retire.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
They don't want to do what's necessary from February to August to prepare for the season. They just don't want to do it, and they know they have to be prepared. But if you're willing to put in the work, why the hell wouldn't it? Look at Pete Carroll. He's 74. Andy Reid's 66. Andy Reid has more than a few years left in coaching, as long as he wants to. Same with Travis Kelsey.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I mean, to me, it's ridiculous to try and force somebody to retire if they still have the want to to do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I mean, it's just a run that you stay on. Again, the core stays together. You fill in the ancillary spots behind that, and you just keep winning. You ride this for as long as you can, absolutely.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I don't feel bad for professional athletes in the sense, you know, oh, wow. He is like those that got caught up in the Tiger Woods era, those that got caught up in the Michael Jordan era. It happens, right? You can be great, but if you get caught up in the wrong era – There's not a lot that you can do because Josh Allen has played well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
He didn't turn the ball over this year like he has in the past. You literally have to keep the ball out of Pat Mahomes' hand on the last drive. whether it's A, to score points, or B, get a first down to run the clock out. Because you know Andy Reid is going to go for it. Andy Reid isn't going to run the ball three times and punt. Andy Reid is going to try and keep possession of the ball
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Because that's the way Andy Reid works. And you have a quarterback in Pat Mahomes that can get it done. So, no, I don't feel bad. I mean, I don't. You just got caught in the wrong air. Not to say that it can't happen next year for Josh. But, man, it's got to be mentally tough. physically guys are all prepared to play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
But mentally, you just have to wonder when you get into the playoffs against Kansas City, it's like, okay, what happens this year? How do we lose this year? What goes on this year? It's just got to be brutal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
No, I mean, again, I don't think so. I don't think so. This is like, I remember Marty Schottenheimer took the Browns to a couple of AFC championship games and got fired.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
It's like you were going to fire Ryan Day. And again, if there wasn't a 12-team playoff, Ryan Day probably would have got fired because he lost four times in a row to Michigan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
But he ends up winning a national championship. It just seems ludicrous to think that you would fire Ryan Day over one game. Right. Just like, you know, Sean McDermott is successful. Who are you going to hire that you say, yeah, that person is going to get us over the hump?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Listen, Spags is going to get a chance to be a head coach again. I would really believe, but again, You don't know how somebody who's been a lifer coordinator is going to be as a head coach, right? You just don't know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Exactly. I mean, you had a stint, obviously, as a head coach. I get it with what the Rams from 2009 to 2011, I think it was. So you have a bit of history there. But I do think it would be stunning, I guess I would say, if he doesn't get a shot again. If, in fact, he wants a shot again and he's, what, 65 years old. So who knows? I don't know what's on his mind.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
No, no. In Miami, it was a blowout. It wasn't even a game. This was a game. I mean, Notre Dame started out great. Then, obviously, Ohio State went on an incredible run. And then Notre Dame made it a one-score game in the fourth quarter, made it somewhat exciting. So, no, that was only because it was just an absolute destruction in Miami. So, no, I'd still go to Mercedes-Benz in Atlanta for sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
The issue with me and Notre Dame is all the players they're losing. A couple of wide receivers in the portal, three offensive linemen, their defensive coordinator, Al Golden, going to the Bengals. Now, they did sign Chris Ashe, who has been a D coordinator for more than a few big-time teams. But their GM... Obviously, every team has a GM now went from Notre Dame to USC, so they need a new GM.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
So that's what happens when you're successful. You get poached, and Notre Dame certainly got poached.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Oh, yeah. I mean, his former team isn't. He really can't lose. If his former team wins, he's happy. But I think he's more happy if his brother wins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I don't know if his body would have held up. I mean, that's the one he can always lean on. I don't know if my body would have would have held up because, yeah, Cam Juergens comes in as an is a Pro Bowl center. I mean, it's almost like they didn't miss a beat. They got obviously younger at the position.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Yeah, I could see that being one year removed, thinking about I could have been on another team, but he's got a ring too, I think. So if he never got a ring, I think it would bug to me even more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Well, I think my point is he's happy either way. If the Eagles win, it's his former team winning. If the Chiefs win, it's his brother winning. To your point, yes, I do think he should be, and he can root for who he wants. He's his own man. But I would be rooting for my brother at this point. Blood is thicker than the team I played for.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Yes. Oh, I always said if Mike or Jake went to a different school, I would cheer for that school proudly. I mean, if it was where they wanted to go and where they wanted to be, I would be happy. It's my kids over my school for sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
That'd be an issue. Yeah. Thanks for bringing that up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
That's where they're out of the will.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
It culminates in a flag football game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Well, there's diabetes involved again.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
But it's actually to help with diabetes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
No, but there's a tug of war. There's a quarterback contest that has a trivia component to it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Well, I mean, it's the timing. Like the last blitz that he had on Josh Allen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Right? I mean, he was kind of saving that. And it's something you can do on the defensive side. You can save stuff. Not as much on the offensive side. But the defensive side, you can save stuff. And he gave Josh Allen a zone look. Right? Gave him a safety, a deep zone look. Right. And he kind of had it a little bit overloaded to Josh's left. So Josh slid left. He had the line slide left.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
And sure enough, the cornerback blitzes from Josh's right. And he and Karloftis come free and force, you know, the Hail Mary, which, by the way, I mean, should have been caught. Right. Should have been caught. But...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
regardless he he and and that's what you see today in blitzes you either overload with more guys rushing than offensive linemen and and running backs to block or you try and confuse to where you're not bringing more rushers than the offense has to block but you fooled them into calling the wrong protection and you have free rushers and that's exactly what spagnuolo did
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
He confused them, called the protection to slide left, and what you have to have is players who can disguise because you'll see before a play a quarterback give a hard count or in college they'll clap their hands thinking that's going to go to try and have the defense give up what they're going to do, right? Have a guy step out of position. Oh, he's coming. He's backing off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
So try and give them a read. Give credit to the players on Kansas City for disguising, for not giving it up, for that cornerback not showing that he was going to blitz until the ball was snapped. So it's a combination of trying to fool the offense and then having your disguised guys not give away what they're going to do.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Yeah. Yes. The quarterback has 30 seconds to throw at targets, but gets 10 seconds added if one of his teammates, now actual teammates, so like CJ Stroud and Nico Collins are doing it. I know that for the AFC.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
You know, it's a storyline either way, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Oh, definitely. We'll gain weight together all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I think there's one person who would be upset if we don't. Well, there is definitely... But we don't really care about upsetting that person.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
So if Nico Collins gets something right in the trivia, he gets 10 more seconds.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Here's my problem with the square game. Everybody that asks me to do it, the squares are like $2,000 each. And I'm like, I don't... They're like, yeah, my buddy's putting together one at a bar, and you want to go have these on a square for $2,000. Who are you friends with? Who are you friends with? I rolled deep.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I was like, I'll give you $5, and that'll get me in on a square.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Well, I get asked to do them. I've never once participated in one of them. They just all assume that I would be in because I do like to throw a few shekels on a game. I mean, a dozen prop bets in a Super Bowl, that's my gravy right there. A dozen $10 bets a time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
In my field day, it was red versus blue, and purple always won.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
And it was like Michigan. It was Michigan, Iowa. It was the under half a point for Iowa.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
And then it hit, but somebody didn't actually place the bet.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
You know, you pay the $2,000 beforehand. So, like, there's no kneecaps coming. I would have to break kneecaps if I don't get the money afterwards.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
And I'm like, fifth alternate for trivia? Russell Wilson is going. Russell Wilson is playing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
A little good on Fuentes' part is making it $10, because if he made it $50, everyone would have been like, no, I would have never agreed to that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Josh Allen is not going to the Pro Bowl, and by the time they got down to the alternate, I believe Russell Wilson is going.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I mean, that's, I'm, I'm, well, I gotta, I gotta go sign my name in the, in the box.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I actually go sign my name in the box.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Billy, now what you do is you make up a whole bunch of names except for like two people who you get to give you $2,000. And you walk away with $4,000. Hey, Jim S. won.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
From 1 in 100, you're taking all that money from K-Funk, and I'm all for it.

How many jobs did the NFL save in their budget by downgrading from Hawaii to Orlando? Like you don't have to buy round trip airfare or nothing for any of that stuff. Now, guess what guys, everybody's going to keep their job, but you're not going to Hawaii. You're going to Orlando.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
I love that the foundation of your argument is that a bunch of NFL pro bowlers are afraid to tell their mother-in-laws no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Oh, I get it. I get it. I totally understand. Like, I picture, like, scary dude from the Hawaii, James Harrison being like, No, I can't tell my mom.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Because it's going to take – Yes, she does need to sit first class.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
Guys, I'm the third alternate for you if you need someone else to fill in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Something touched the ground that doesn't touch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Bowl Box Scheme
No, I'd rather stay home. I'd rather stay home. Thank you. I'm good. If this was a regular season game, Billy might be questionable, but Super Bowl, you play through it.

His friend, who's the better boxer when they were younger, goes to prison, gets his life taken away, and then Jonathan Majors feels like Creed took his life and lived his life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And we're your boxing trunks, too. I think we got a LeBron-Windy situation here. He never said he was his best friend.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Okay. Okay. Boy, obviously we talked about Russell Wilson. That's on my Don't Look Now sheet. Don't Look Now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Okay, good. Don't look now. We haven't even mentioned this on the show. I don't know who's behind me. It's Pat Riley. What is that? It's Pat Riley. Don't look now. Stephon Diggs is a patriot. Not mentioned, not uttered once on this show, by the way, last week. Stephon Diggs, now with Drake May. Interesting, interesting veteran receiver, veteran presence. Is it a good veteran presence?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I don't know. That's why we're not looking. He wasn't that bad. He wasn't that great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Taylor's a different kind of guy. The problem with Taylor is that he's never seen anything. Any movie. Any movie whatsoever. He just watches tape. That's it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
That is true. But again, Mike likes it. Drake May. Hawk, what do you think? Getting a veteran guy in there, trying to help him out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Mack Hollins at the two. What if they go up and draft Travis Hunter, too? Nice little one, two, three.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Don't look now. And it's actually gaining steam. Diana Rossini commented on this and reported this earlier today. You got to talk into the mic. Where's my mic? You got to talk into it, Mike. The Packers were one of the teams that tried to ban the push, the tush push.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And now it's starting to gain some steam where across the league, there may be some people led by the Packers that want to cancel the push, the tush push. Got to do it. Has to happen. There we go. I'm back. All right, what else do I have here? Don't look now. You're looking at your paper. How is that possible? It's the psychic thing where I can see where the Ark of the Covenant is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Sorry. Vikings have not. Yeah, hold on. The Vikings have not. Oh, I got his hand. I got his hand. The Vikings have not commented on the QB1 for their team. Is it going to be J.J. McCarthy? Could it be? Aaron Rodgers. They haven't closed the door yet. Don't look down.

LeBron breaking open to the top. He gives it to Reeves. Reeves to the basket. Layup good. Oh! LeBron never even touches the ball. The Bulls are out of timeouts. Giddey from half court. It is good!

GBF- So Many Upsets
I told you I'm itching to pick an upset, but it's not here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Oh, this. I'm just going to write Ravens in there. Come on, Justin Fields. Okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I'm going to take the number seven Patriots because Aaron Rodgers still hasn't gone there. If Rodgers goes there, I might change my answer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Kenny Pickett, come on. Super Bowl champion, Kenny Pickett.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I don't think they can make the trade because the Falcons have already paid such a big sum. It doesn't help them to move him at this point.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
16-40. You know what? Give me the 49ers and the biggest upset.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I'm sorry. The swag is gone. Last I checked, Dan Campbell's still there. Give me the Lions. You know what?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Oh, you got upset. Yeah. Crazy. I'm picking all the upsets, and then you pick the one time I don't. Go ahead.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I'm glad he got up there. Give me the Packers. Okay. Fuentes?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Everything that Kevin O'Connell does seems to work, at least in the regular season. This is the playoffs. The Bears added so much to their offensive line that they could win based on that. Give me the Bears. Wow. Fuentes?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
It's almost like the committee picked games to make sure that we had to pick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I picked the Chargers last time. We got some stuff for it on Twitter. I'm not going to change it now. Give me the Bengals.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I mean, give me the Chargers. Give me the Chargers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Name a guy on defense. Wow. You brought that guy. They didn't get better.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I want to pick the upset. I can't. Give me the Ravens.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Give you a reason, Mike. Everybody on the Rams is going to retire.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Yeah, the Rallis defense. That thing started really playing well towards the end of the year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I believe in Ben Johnson, the offensive coordinator, not necessarily Ben Johnson, the head coach.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
It certainly has a lot of implications. I don't necessarily believe that it takes them out of drafting a quarterback at number three. I do think it takes them out of trading up to number one. I think those deals pretty much preclude you from making that move. But I think if Shador Sanders is there at three and – The other guy they might want was taken at two.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
We know how this goes. It's the Chiefs. Really? We know how this goes. We've seen this. We've seen this almost every year for the last five or six years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Yeah, until it didn't. Until it didn't. But we're like in movie number eight of the franchise. I was talking about the Ravens. Yeah. We've seen it every year. That's true. And until they do it, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
You know I'm going to say upset, right? No, give me the Eagles. Give me the Eagles. Fuentes? Damn Eagles.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
You should have had me. I'm feeling silly. You should have put the 49ers in. All right. You should have put the 49ers in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I have such a special place in my heart for Baker Mayfield. I have such a special place in my heart for Baker Mayfield. Give me the Commanders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
You know what? No. Give me the Chargers. Give me the Chargers. Jim Harbaugh has them going in year two. Billy, pick the Chiefs. I'm going with the Chiefs. Yeah, well, that's kind of what I wanted. That's kind of what I wanted.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I think they could draft Sanders and put him on the bench for a year behind Russell Wilson. The interesting thing about the Wilson and the Winston contracts are if neither of them play, they cost like $14 million total between two of them. So you could easily justify spending $14 million on two very high-end backup quarterbacks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
After careful consideration, I've decided that I think it's time for some new blood in the winner's circle. It's time for a new Goliath to take over in the NFL. And I'm going to say that that is going to be the Washington Commanders. They win the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Yeah, but we're not sure about anything at this point. I think the Titans are still leaning Cam Ward.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Here's the other incentive that makes me think they're still not out of the... I'm going to call it Shador Sanders at three. Let's just be honest. That's who I think it's going to be at three, if it's anybody. The reason I think that it's... still very likely is, drafting Shador Sanders at three might buy the GM, Joe Shane, and the head coach one more year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
No, I don't have another good one, but I have another one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Because if they're in this, their jobs are dangling by a thread. And if they... put all their faith in Russell Wilson after what we saw last year and Jameis Winston, what we saw the last decade, then they're pretty much resigned to the fact that they're gone. But if they draft Shador and they go, well, you got to give us a chance to develop them a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
More Mike Lee to get fired this season. Shane Steichen with the Colts or Mike McDaniel with the Dolphins?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
This was really a question to ask a couple of Miami guys what they think is going to happen with Mike McDaniel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Yeah. Great signing for them, by the way, to keep it away from the Jets. Is that why you're saying that? No, no, no, because they're Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones are so similar in like what they can do versus like what they can't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
And their, their offense won't change no matter if, if Anthony Richardson has to pull himself out for a drink of water or a breath or something, it doesn't mean it's going to be good though. I think it's, Consistency is always better. I guess that's right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Let's, let's see where they are when he's 30. Let's see what the contract offer is when he's like 28. Yeah. Let's see if like he gets a, Hey, we'll give you a five year deal. He's going to like, no, I don't want five year deal. Give me a two year deal. Like let's see what happens.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Maybe, maybe they buy themselves one more year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Yeah. Hey. Here's a headline. The New England Patriots found their number one receiver. They signed Stefan Diggs to a three-year $69 million deal. I'm started to think of Stefan digs as rich man's Brandon cooks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
It seems like he's kind of have that same career trajectory where everywhere he goes, he tells everybody he's the one and gets paid like it, but they just keep shipping them out and they just keep moving on from him. This is what his fourth team, the Vikings, the Texans, the bills, and now the Patriots. Um, I guess it helps them a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
I mean, it gives them at least somebody that's a little more dynamic than Matt Collins for Drake May, but I don't know. Stephon Diggs never scared me when he was in the division with the Bills. and he still doesn't with the Patriots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
it's good and and the the fun thing is billy and i you you and i talked yesterday like early and we were like wow nothing's going on and then all of a sudden the nfl as it always does gives us gifts yeah they gave us things yeah it's talked about one of those things that we uh we we met earlier in the week we were doing some planning what do we want to talk about we planned some games around some contracts that had been signed and then boom all of a sudden new contracts are signed new deals are announced we just had to kind of
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
They essentially changed offensive coordinators and said, Stefan Diggs, you're no longer the one. And then all of a sudden Buffalo took off. They won like six games in a row that year. It was something ridiculous. As soon as they said, you know what? Diggs isn't the focus. Josh Allen. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
Okay. All right. Then, yeah, give me a ball pool.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
So I was going to pick the Texans until you told me Tua was hanging out with Baker. He's learning how to win. Give me the Dolphins. Wow. Fuentes?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- So Many Upsets
CJ Stroud doesn't want to curse anymore. That's apparently his new thing. And Tua's learning how to hang with Baker. Yep.

What level of depressed am I when I have zero interest in watching movies? Like, I don't feel like I don't get the joy in them anymore. I'm getting boxed out from you guys. And it's just, I have this feeling like, wow, I'm just missing an entire part of my life that I used to enjoy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
I watched some of it. I was kind of working, so I didn't really, I had it on the background a little bit.

No, I get the reference. I'm just trying to remember. Lomberg, was that his name?

The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
I do not want to start any sort of comment that we're supposed to have a discussion on with Channing Frye was right. No offense to Channing Frye. It just makes me feel like, wait a second, why are we saying this? First of all, face of the league stuff is a made up fake title, right? I've never grew up thinking to myself before I was a journalist, hey, who's the face of the NBA?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
And I probably never would have.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
Well, of course, but I never would have. You never had to ask the question. If I wasn't a journalist, right? And so the idea, but he goes, oh, everybody's going to nitpick your game, et cetera. Well, it doesn't matter if you're the face of the NBA. If you are a player that everybody wants to watch because you have an incredible game, people are going to dissect it anyway.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
They have to. Why not? They have to. I've already told Noah Eagle, he's got to do it. Create stakes for every single game. Have people who maybe aren't as big NBA fans listen to that and be like, hey, I know what's happening now. Let me watch this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
They say mean things about me. My favorite point that somebody tried to make on Face of the League, the contrived conversation that I've never heard more than this year, was you can't be a foreigner. It can't be an international player to be the face of the league. Why not? Who's ever said that? Who ever says, oh, I'm dissecting Victor Wimbonyama. I'm watching him all the time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
He is the guy that's on my TV all the time. Not the face of the league, though. Too foreign.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
We'll decide if you get to talk about Darius Garland or not. What happened the other night against the Pistons? And this isn't so much a what's wrong with the Celtics question, because obviously it's a regular season, but what do you like about the Pistons?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
And no Monty, because Monty was starting Killian Hayes for whatever reason.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
i f with that dude well a couple of things though scouts see if you agree with me here like early on in his career like i interviewed him a bunch pre-game he had nothing to say like he was not really that exciting of a personality he has definitely grown in that respect has more to say but not really a whole lot right and then when he does say stuff after winning he's just basically parroting other people who have already won and then a part of the game and this is not really an insult to him he just does what he needs to do he doesn't overdraw
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
You can have that one. Do you want more recent than nine years?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
and he doesn't have to, he doesn't do all this fancy stuff like maybe he did when he was younger. He just does the one or two moves, a sidestep, maybe a little push off, and then that's it. That's all he needs to do to be at this level and win. And so maybe that just doesn't draw that many eyes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
But you wake up. You put your head down. You wake up with a little drool on the desk. You wake up with lines on your face. And you've got to be like, hey, boss, how's it going? Was I sleeping?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Top 5 Naps You Can Take (feat. Brian Scalabrine)
I love a good nap where you've got a little bit of drool because you're just like, wow, that was a good one. I would never do that if I was conscious.

And the last one is watching an episode of Severance. Not because it's a bad show. I absolutely love the show. I've just had to watch episodes over and over again because it's so soothing that it just puts me to sleep.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And so I asked somebody, I'm like, oh yeah, this whole terminal's closed. You got to go to like the next terminal and then walk over. I'm like, well, that sounds silly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
So I go to the next terminal. It's all closed. So I'm like, what do I do? I grab some airline person and they're like, oh yeah, the airport's closed. The entire airport? I'm like, what do you mean the airport is closed? So I call... American Airlines and say, yo, I can't get in. My flight hasn't left yet. Like they're not even boarding, but I can't get in. How do I get in?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And say, oh yeah, the airport's closed. I'm like, but the planes are still here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
I've been traveling my entire life. Damn near 46 years at this point. I have never heard of the concept of, sorry, the airport's closed, like it's a bank or a McDonald's or something. You know what?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Like, hey, every effing airport in America, dare I say it, the world, hey, every terminal has a rideshare pickup right there, either on the curb or you go into, like, the parking lot, right? O'Hare's the only one. Where, hey, especially, don't let it be a blizzard. No, you gotta walk back like 200 yards.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Go that way, and I said, is there like a tunnel? Nope, go outside and brave the elements.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Because I was sitting in the eating area or outside in the living room, whatever we call this place right here, and Roy cackled. And I said, what's up? And he said, he started saying, oh, this thing with Jamel, Jamel Hill. And I said, the Phil Collins story. And Roy looked at me like I was crazy. And I was like, oh, so this isn't about the same thing that I saw, which is
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
What did you say? Go to Midway. Go to Midway? Yeah. Midway's like a Greyhound bus terminal, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Jamel, on her podcast, interviewed Rommel Ross, the director. He's nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay for Nickel Boys, right? But he also played college basketball at Georgetown, which is, that's a pretty amazing kind of background for someone in Hollywood. And he tells a story about one time where Michael Jordan showed up to play pickup hoops with the team. And they're like, oh, that's great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
I mean, here's the thing. The Celtics are coming off of a big loss to Detroit, and so typically the formula is when they lose, they come back extra hard.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Last season? Yeah. He was hurt, yeah. He was hurt, and he ended up missing most of that Celtics series, as did a lot of other people on the Cavs. Jared Allen missed a lot of time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
So it's just like, it's one of those things where I think... We tend to, rightfully so, give the benefit of the doubt to the team that has the experience. If we haven't seen you, and again, I'm not even talking about the Celtics winning a championship. But it's not even about them winning a championship. It's that the Celtics have a lot of playoff experience.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Despite being young, all those guys have like 100 games of playoff experience.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Ever, yeah. Because he plays every year in the playoffs, and more often than not, they go past the second round. And obviously with seven-game series and all that stuff. But ultimately, I wonder for the Cavs, Is it enough? When is enough enough, right? When have you- When have they shown enough?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
When have you, well, no, we all know they've shown enough when they win a championship and they're like, oh yeah, of course. But the other part of it is, when is enough experience in order for us to be like, okay, the experience part isn't a thing anymore.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
It is. You know, the finals is a weird time, man. It's because conference finals actually is the weirdest. I say this all the time about like the playoffs. When the playoffs start, there's so many teams playing. It kind of feels like a regular season night. Like for just... Everyone's kind of playing. Obviously, the level of basketball is higher. It's more intense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
But because there's so many other things happening, you don't feel like it's actually that special. Then you get to the second round, and there's two games a night, the Eastern Conference game and the Western Conference game. But you still feel like there's a lot of stories and things being talked about, eight or however many different teams. Then you get to the conference finals.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And in the conference finals, there's one game a night. And then you feel, oh, man, everybody is watching just us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Like it doesn't fly under the radar like something that might happen in the first round or even the second round. And then obviously the finals, you've got all that time. The difference between the finals and conference finals is not only are you the only game of the night, but also when I don't play, there's nothing.

And it's like, and he brought Randy Moss with him. And he said, now, guys, Michael Jordan is telling them, guys, you got to be cool. You can't ask for autographs or pictures or anything like that. But we have a special guest coming. And the special guest was Phil Collins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
There's just that void where game one is Thursday and game two ain't until Sunday. And so we're sitting around waiting to see what's going to happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
This feels like the Bradley Beal, John Wall conversations of like a decade ago, right? And they're like, no, we're best buds. And then afterwards, like, I mean, this guy's cool, but I couldn't stand playing with him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Phil Collins come play ball with us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Yes. The answer is yes. It's all of those things, right? Number one, Jimmy Butler's arrival has made Steph Curry sit back up like Marty McFly in the Enchantment Under the Sea dance after his parents kissed, right? Earth angel, earth angel. He's playing that guitar hard now, right? In a way that he was fading. Dude, it looked not great for Steph Curry
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
He looked like, dare I say it, like Father Time was knocking on that door. And Jimmy Butler gets there, and all of a sudden, this dude is revitalized, right? Jimmy Butler offers the perfect counterbalance in terms of interior plate and, more importantly, attention.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
You know what? He could be 6'2". Phil Collins hooping. Like, what does Phil Collins' game look like? What do you guys think? Right? He's 5'6". 5'6", so he's got to be shifty, right? A little small guard, get in there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

It's simultaneously made both of their lives a lot easier than it was a month ago, where it's like, oh, there's somebody else you have to worry about every single night. Jeremy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Yeah, because if you don't, he's like, no, I wasn't pooping. I just sat on some ketchup or whatever. By the way, great job by Jeremy Plain. Don't look now. Cardboard cut over here. Riley's a menace.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Like Scott Skiles. I don't know why. Playmaker.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
I love the idea that you said, oh, Jimmy says, oh, I'm allowed to be me, right? I'm allowed to do whatever I want, right? And it made me think of, in Hollywood, these directors, these movie makers being allowed to do whatever the hell they want The Oscars are on Sunday, and one of the movies that's up, or two of the movies that are up are The Brutalist and Wicked.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And both of them are incredibly long movies. And I sat there and I thought to myself as I watched Wicked, you know what, man? We often villainize the studios. Like, oh, they wouldn't let the director and his vision or whatever, just let him make the movie the way he or she wanted it to be made.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
He kind of does. It's a hairline thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
I can't imagine trying to watch that in a theater. Oh, I would have been so knocked out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Yeah. It reminded me of the only other story I can think of that rivals that as far as like, what? I knew this guy, he's an agent, and he is from Minnesota. And when he was getting his law degree, he used to play in this pickup game. And it was one of those things where it's like, it's a Sunday pickup game, and everyone knows someone through someone else. You know the deal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
The fact that part one is as long as it is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Are you a wicked hater? Part one. I thought it was a good movie. I thought it was a great movie. It is a great movie. I was entertained. I just think it could have been better. Exactly. It's just like... Dude, like you said in the break room, make some choices.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
I'm a studio head, and my filmmaker comes up to me and says, okay, the movie's going to go like this, and then there's an intermission. I say, get out of my office. I don't care who you are.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

They milked that shit in the school where she gets her hat and all that. I'm like, I fell asleep during that point in the theater. Great nap, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Make some choices. That's all we're asking. I'm going to formulate a list of top five places to take a nap in. I'm pretty sure number one is at the movies, but we'll give you all of that when we come back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
You've been to these pickup runs where it's the same 15 to 17 people show up every week. Sometimes it's this 12, sometimes it's that 12. But it's the same group of people. You know them. But you don't know them outside of this, really, right? It's all Izzy and Mike and Raj, right? And so the guy Raj, Raj was a premium shit talker, right? Great basketball player.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Penetrating, dribbling, shooting, and talked the whole time. Raj is a big personality, right? So maybe like four or five weeks go by and Raj doesn't show up. And so one of the guys is like, hey, was Raj okay? What's happening now? Yeah, what's going on with Raj? And he said, oh, Raj is on tour with his band. And I was like, Raj is in a band?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And they're like, yeah, because you don't know these people's backgrounds and lives outside of this. And they said, and then the next year, Purple Rain came out. Oh, no. Raj, Prince, Roger, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
It was, no, it was Prince. Wait, it was Prince? It was Prince. Oh, Prince Rogers, yeah, yeah, yeah. So- Prince, like all the stuff about the Charlie Murphy true Hollywood story about Prince being a basketball player and talking trash and being amazing and all that, apparently 1,000% true. 1,000% true. And obviously it took a life of its own after it was told on the Chappelle show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
But my question is this. Why haven't we heard about the Phil Collins stories? If Phil Collins is out here playing pickup ball with Michael Jordan and Randy Moss. But hang on a second.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Because he wasn't Prince at the time. He was Raj. Like imagine Izzy, you're not catching him at the peak of like when doves cry, you're catching him as he's like touring small venues trying to make a living.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The other name, and this one will blow you guys away. You guys know who Bruce Hornsby is?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
That's just the way it is. That's one of my favorite songs. So Bruce Hornsby, another big basketball fan. So one day, Bruce Hornsby gets to go to practice in Philly when Allen Iverson is there. After the practice, he's like, hey, you want to play one-on-one? And Bruce Hornsby won. What? Bruce Hornsby beat Allen Iverson in one-on-one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Dude, I'm telling you. Some of these musicians. Six-four.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Things will never be the same. So Phil Collins, we got him as feisty. We got him as durable penetration, playmaker. Defensively, how is he?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
See, I'm thinking Jose Alvarado, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Just like a pest, just completely undercutting you at the knees. Like, not dirty, but walking right up to that line of, hey man, like, it's just a pickup game. By the way, the other story that Rommel Ross tells is from that game was that Randy Moss grabbed the rebound and then one dribble drops up dunked on Ruben Boomshay Boomshay. Which, one of the great names in basketball history.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Yep, Georgetown. Georgetown legends. The Cavs and the Celtics play tonight. And for almost everybody, this is the top two teams in the Eastern Conference.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
There you go. That's another comp. Peyton Pritchard. I could see Phil Collins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
But not with the volume, though. Because remember, this is like 2003 probably. It's early 2000. He's not slashing to the basket. No, he is. But he's not shooting that many threes. He's pulling from deep when he does. But not too many, right? Because that's only to be used in the case of a nuclear attack.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Phil Collins telling Mike, get away. Randy, come here. Set that screen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And then in a dead ball, he puts his arm around MJ's waist. He's like, this is what I want you to do. And MJ's like, oh, OK. He's hand-checking. Oh, man. But yeah, Cavs, Celtics, Izzy, we often talk about, well, I have to see them do it, right? Even the Celtics, who won last year, literally up until last year, everyone was like, well, until they do it in the playoffs, I can't trust them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And the Cavs have been a team that's had... less modest success in the playoffs than Boston had had up until last year, right? They'd never been to a conference finals with this group. Their best players had never been to a conference final, and Donovan Mitchell, he's been to the second round a bunch of times. But eerily, their season and what's happening to them
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
is a lot like what happened to Golden State a decade ago. Literally 10 years ago, Golden State was, oh, a nice little team. Go to playoffs a couple times. We'll go to second round. But no one would say this is a championship team. Then a new head coach comes in. Ethan Strauss did. Ethan Strauss did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And I'll tell you, the three people who said the Warriors that year were going to win a championship before pretty much anyone else. Ethan Strauss said it before the season started. Leandro Barbosa said it, I want to say, like, in January. He doesn't count, though, because he's on the team. But it was shocking. It was shocking. Like, in a post-game interview, hey, great winner, you guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
How are you guys feeling? He's like, I think we're going to be championship. Like, what? Everyone's like, what are you talking about? It was such a, and it was just like, yeah, it's going to happen. It was the same kind of confidence of Ethan, where it's like, if you saw what I saw, you'd know, oh, no one's beating them. And then the other person, and this one always shocks people. Shaq.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
private because this is how it went down he said who do you think is going to win and i said well who do you think is going to win big fella And obviously his rhetoric on TV is, give it to the big man, you can't win shooting too many jumpers, et cetera. And he looked at me and he said, nobody's beating them light-skinned boys. Nobody. I was like, what?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And then he pulled out his phone and he showed me a video of his son, who at the time, Sharif, was I wanna say either a freshman or a sophomore in high school. And it was like, he's 6'9", and he said, everything I'm teaching him is perimeter. Shoot threes, but that's the way the game is going.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And I'm looking at him like, this is Shaquille O'Neal, the patron saint of throw it down low and why isn't the big man da-da-da and Dwight Howard needs to do more and all that stuff. And even he was so in on that as it's unstoppable. But the rest of, I want to say, basketball in America was like, you can't win like that. You can't win like that. And then they ultimately win.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And then next thing you know, it's like, of course they won. And of course they became this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Mike lit up at just hearing the name Moe Spates. Yeah, he's taking me back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
first of all we asked billy donovan and his staff hey what can you tell us about most spades and all they kept talking about was his perimeter game and we're like what are you talking about all he did was post up at florida and then he came in and his workout was literally all like three pointers and pulling up off the dribble like what is all this and it's like oh because billy wouldn't let him shoot speaking of ethan strauss in his book wasn't there something about kd saying how the hell do they call you mo buckets if you've never averaged like 20 in the league
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

They've done it. I agree with you, actually. Every question mark you could have possibly had about them has been answered. They don't have a flaw. They don't have a flaw, and they have the experience. They did it last year. Now they know. They have that taste in their mouth. They've got all the makings of a championship team.

I don't really like ice cream. No? No. It's too cold. Froyo? Hurts my teeth. How about that? I want to go to so many different places today. There's so many different directions I want to take this show, but I have to start with this story that I saw literally moments before we came on air.

There was one time, one time during the, like, early pandemic or late pandemic seem like till 2021. I went because I had to do a training camp radio interview in the Chicago Bulls. And my flight wasn't until like 9 p.m. And I was done with work like at noon. And so my buddy Sean Little was like, all right, let's let's hang out in Chicago because he's from Chicago. And so
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
We went out, and the weather was great. And I was like, man, maybe I've misjudged. We went to this bar where they pour shots in an ice little thing, and then you throw it, and it hits the bell and all that. And I'm like, you know what? Maybe I've misjudged this place. Maybe I've misjudged this place. And my flight was delayed, so I was like, okay, we stay a little longer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
So then at 10 o'clock, I'm like, all right, I got to go. And I get to the airport at... like 10.45, right? My flight's at one in the morning, because it's been super delayed. And it's empty. I'm like, oh, this is great. I'm going to fly right through security. And I go, and the chain link fence is down. I said, huh, well, maybe the next one. And I keep going. I'm like...

I don't disagree with you at all. It's hysterical to me that the Dolphins are the only team that don't have anything lower than an A. They're the only team that doesn't even have a B plus on the thing. And then you look at some of these others and you just go like the Saints have a D minus or something in food. If you say New Orleans, the first thing you think of is food.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
How does New Orleans have a D- in food? Some of these grades are absolutely bananas to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
Yeah, I just I mean, some of these grades, you look at them and you're like, how how are you a professional franchise with an F as a weight room? Where else are you putting money in your facilities if not the weight room? By the way, that's the New England Patriots have an F for weight room.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
It's one of those injuries, though, that's like, that's not something that's just going to go away real quick. It's like a stress fracture in his foot, and that's the kind of thing where you're like, Listen, I'm not saying he's not going to go top five. I'm hoping he doesn't. I'm hoping he goes top seven. Wink, wink.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
Are they worried it wasn't as anonymous as they pretend it to be?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
Yeah. And ownership, by the way, in the overall scale, weighted more than any other category at 15% of the grade.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
Cleveland and Arizona locker room. Cincinnati treatment of families, which is its own thing. How do you treat families so bad that the players give you an F-minus? And Buffalo travel. Those are the four F-minuses.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
Yeah, so apparently all 32 teams, either 31 of 32, offer either daycare during games or a family room. And the Bengals are the only organization to offer neither. And they also said the family meeting area for post-game parties and, you know, after the game, all the families meet is like a 4 out of 10. Nice. It was ranked.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
But it's the kind of thing that make you think just a little bit more about taking him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Grades
I feel like basically they heard Stugatz wanted to interview and they knew that if he did, he'd get the job. So they quickly made the decision to save themselves from themselves. And Tony Buscelli not being on the show anymore, I mean, there's a big difference between...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
My job was to keep Dan comfortable because a comfortable Dan gave us the best possible content. The job is Dan. The job is Dan. I am talent producing first and foremost. And the best way to produce my talent is to make sure that the grounds are most fertile around him for creativity and simple execution.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Because I know that one simple mistake, especially on the TV side, can really undo a good show. So making sure that we're clean. Or a good career. Yeah, yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Well, complaints did come because, keep in mind, we replaced Colin Cowherd and when you move to middays, in our afternoon experience with ESPN, we'd hear from affiliates, we'd get feedback, but now when you're in
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
a spot of the radio day part where you get way more clearance you get a lot more opinions from program directors of course and dan wasn't really on these affiliate calls we'd only bring them into the more important ones but quarterly i'd get briefed on how our radio show is doing terrestrially uh there were a lot of good stories there like wow our show randomly is huge in the carolinas and there were unfortunate stories like look while we were middays here
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
and struggled enough with how do we establish a zig? We're not running counterculture to a full day's worth of coverage. We were the morning show out in L.A., and L.A. was a huge affiliate for ESPN. And you would have thought because Miami is similar to L.A. in a lot of ways, our show would have taken off there. It didn't. They hated us. The station hated us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
The fans hated us because they wanted to hear their Lakers talk. They wanted to hear their USC Trojan talk. Collin was always very good about forcing the issue when it came to the Los Angeles market. We were just kind of doing our own thing and it really blew up in our face when it came to L.A.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
We are. Digitally, yes. And there were really good stories when it came to the radio ratings in New York. But you're always going to be compared to Mike Francesa there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
No, and that's why we were off, because we didn't do the stuff that Colin was so good at being able to kind of ham it up. I also didn't care, though. No, you didn't care, but Mike and I had discussions. Which we could have done with you giving more of a shit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Dan's an artist. The only market he's ever cared about catering to is Miami. And at that point, it had been pretty successful going about his work that way. It had proved to be a winner, so... I don't blame him. He would have made my life a little bit easier. And sometimes it's pride swallowing knowing that, ah man, I thought for sure we'd work in LA, but we didn't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Another aspect of Dan's workflow that we probably took for granted was right before we went to mid days, Dan was as locked in on sports as he's ever been in his life. Super sharp because why? He's taping Highly Questionable before the show. So he's coming out, he's already testing takes and he's fully informed. He's getting research packets. Back then I also used to write for Highly Questionable.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
So he came in super sharp. Now his work day is totally flipped and he's doing the radio show and he's not getting that prep. He's not getting the research. He hasn't been able to see how other people dissect stories. So I'm curious, did you also miscalculate having to do this before Highly Questionable as opposed to after?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
We found a way to rage against the machine while inside the machine and for no one on the outside to pick apart that hypocrisy. Right. Because everybody knew the dynamic. We didn't fit. The salespeople certainly knew it. Dan still is not doing reads. Dan will occasionally be the talent that'll say the worst possible thing ever. That's also a learning moment for me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
meeting was fun yeah that was that was one of the the few times that dan was i love a good radio sales meeting i had to go to that this is because i said such bad things about Again, I was trying to protect you and you didn't even see it. Predators. Hey! Dan, I'm like... What are you doing? Dan, what are you doing, dude?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I'm trying to protect you from even naming it and you're over there calling him Predators. I'm trying to get him on the air. I mean... Bleep all of it. Just bleep it all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
This is a perfect example of the type of talent that he is. You're right, Mike. I'm literally trying to push him away from it. This is it. And he says the worst fucking thing possible. It's a goddamn headache every time. There were plenty of things that I miss about this era, though, too, which is, number one, we moved to a different day part.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Our commercials got longer, and while that was frustrating, man, do I miss being able to create content within the breaks. Yes. I really miss something organically happening in the back during the break that we're just laughing through, Dan picking up on it and starting a segment with that stuff. Something that's kind of been missing from the show ever since.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I don't think there's anything I miss more than that from the eight-minute commercial break.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
but also in a loud way and dan was writing him down and i knew he would come back from commercial break with what it was you and i were just constantly workshopping that's also how like we would play really well received rejoined music we had our rejoins and then song and i would be very thoughtful with how i do it often sending subliminal on messages with the set list for the day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
But I would play a song and then play with playing a sound in the BPMs in between. Show within the show. Making remixes and I would use that time to see like if this would work and we'd go live and we'd do that because it worked with our bullpen essentially. I really miss that stuff. It really brought a lot of creativity.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Yeah, you guys are bad actors.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
One of my proudest things is that you guys would just stroll into the studio. We turn the mics on and we'd go. Anytime we brought in a different guest host, their head would be spinning at the pace that we'd operate. But we prepared a lot. because our show could go anywhere. And I would often tell people, how do you prepare for a show that can go anywhere?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
You gotta be prepared for anything and everything. And that's loads of pre-production, that's loads of production in show. And production can mean many things. It can mean a bit of imaging, or it can mean, hey, let's talk about this process right here. Why did that go wrong? How do we make it better?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
The communication is constant, ever evolving, 24 seven, everything is feedback, everything is production.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
A huge, massive booklet that the baton was passed throughout the years. I took a lot of pride in the show sheet. Roy did the show sheet. You would get mad at us at times because we wouldn't look at it, right? We wouldn't read it. We killed so many trees. I'm telling you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
It was much thicker than Sagat's personal record book. Yes. And you guys insisted. I remember there was one time that I'm like, all right, we're going to go largely digital with this to save some paper. And you guys hated it. And my resentment was such. I'm like, you guys don't read the hard copies, but you insist on this. But again, talent comes first. Talent's comfort comes first.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
that's what we were communicating his computer to mine you had your creature comforts and you were married to that and that's fine and it good producers fall in line do you agree with dan if we didn't get to most of the stuff on the show sheet or in his head we had a good show that's a good show that's always a great show like oh damn we didn't get around to that oh damn we didn't do this produce bit oh damn we didn't cover that we had good stuff there it's always the hallmark of a good show so we're humming
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
We're doing good. We're clicking on all cylinders. We're navigating Dan's amazing proclivity to step into it, especially with sponsors. But it's all fine. In large part due to, and this part can't be ignored, John Skipper is president at ESPN. And I want the listener to keep all of this in mind. And I want Dan and Sue to keep this in mind because things start happening.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
The world starts changing around this era. It creeps in with the Colin Kaepernick stuff. The lines between politics and sports become really blurred. Probably the greatest example of that over the course of our time at ESPN. There were constant landmines around that. And then Trump's candidacy. Keep in mind, we had Donald Trump on the show several times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Oftentimes, Dan was begging for him to run for president.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
But we have no idea how the GOP is going to evolve, how Trump becomes this massive cult of personality. But the seeds are there. Initially, Dan's rooting for all the chaos. But I'm curious, Colin Kaepernick. Regret that or not?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
In 2015, there was like an exchange like, oh, please, you have to run. Donald, please run. I love you guys. I listen to your show all the time. You guys are the best. You're the best. That's a real thing. That's all I wanted to hear. Less than 10 years ago. Less than 10 years ago, Dan and Donald Trump were showering each other with praise. But I'm curious, Colin Kaepernick for me. goes LeBron.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
That's an amazing sentence. It is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
You have to. Don! Don, you have to. We probably should have kept going with that. We'd be in the cabinet for sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
You guys would definitely have a cabinet position right now. I'd be the vice president. Honestly, I think we could get you approved right now. Lisa, there are problems. Oh, damn it. I got to stick to sports real quick. Colin Kaepernick, for me, is a top five story in the history of this show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
LeBron, all the Patriots stuff with Tom Brady being the football player of his generation with the coach of his generation. And also on top of that, you dashed scandal on top of it. That was a great story. But Colin Kaepernick... This was a story that probably challenged you guys in ways that you'd never been challenged before in front of microphones.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
And I'm very curious your approach to this, how our show probably talked about it more than any other show because it was dangerous. It was almost self-governed over at ESPN. It wasn't so much people telling us not to do this. There was a lot of talent that just tried to punt on it altogether.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Which for you, your process pivots a little bit because the start of the show was you were a traditional sports guy. You had different takes on Colin Kaepernick. You and Dan were pretty much aligned from the get-go. So it wasn't a push and pull type of thing. You might have spoken for Joe Sportsfan occasionally, but you were really there to get us out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
And we've learned this new character comedically, how we inject you into these segments. And I often use it as a device. Dan, more often than not, probably saw it coming, whether it's breaking NFL news. We use you often to get us out of places where we kept getting too entrenched that were a little dicey for us professionally.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
He was preparing for it though, because Dan was actually for the first time talking about one of these crazy scenarios that are actually playing out. Dan did several shows on what if Peyton Manning were a Klansman? Yes. For fun. Like we just made that hypothetical just because he liked the challenge. He would have started. It was so good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Remember the ESPN, the magazine, what if Michael Vick were white and how poorly that went, too. That was probably the second craziest Colts hypothetical that we had behind. How much do you think a shopping cart with a mannequin arm attached to it, how many yards do you think it would get in a season?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Maybe not if Peyton got it right in the basket. Look, we'll do this show again. I think it would have Mo Alleycox-like production. Really? Instead of screaming Mo Alleycox would be shopping cart with a mannequin arm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
It would be plus 800 every day versus score a touchdown. We take it every Sunday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Do you guys remember how we started talking about Kaepernick and this whole story around him? Because many people might forget the Miami ties to how this whole thing blew up. Kaepernick started doing this. He initially wasn't even kneeling. He was just sitting down. Then he famously consulted the teammate who had served, said, go ahead and take a knee that's a little bit more respectful.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
No one really picked up on it. There were whispers of this. Then he came down to Miami and on the heels of the pig socks, the police officers depicted as pigs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Yes. And now you have this messenger trying to have a take that you support. A player's right to speak their mind and speak out against injustice. But also, Dan, you mentioned Cuban exile. Now, it appears, I know Armando Salguero had a huge, very passionate piece at that time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
You have the message coming from a player that is wearing a Fidel Castro shirt, almost co-signing on the entire Castro experience. How did you handle that?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
community stops listening the second he puts on the Castro shirt. Correct.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I think initially we also criticized him because it was a misstep. Of course. He was free to do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
It took you a while, but you kind of got beers during it. You found your angle there. Me, I'm constantly getting feedback from ESPN, from Liam or Babysitter. What are the talking points? How do I know I've gone too far? What do I say that it's not necessarily an opposition, but have you considered?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I didn't like my allies at that time, but I'm like, you know, Dan, the flag means a lot to a lot of different people. And, you know, like I was just trying to be devil's advocate.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
crib to distract it or something because mike is producing the show but he's not telling me how he's producing the show he's just doing the kinds of things that run me into different directions sometimes it would be with a different opinion have you considered oftentimes though it would be with imaging or feeding sugats aqua yeah like just giving him something that would slightly distract you having rick springfield bomb in out of nowhere and deliver his favorite colors or you know doing something that was pre-produced we had all sorts we had layers
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Magic creative content was kind of born out of this stuff. It was all creative ways.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
What gave it away, Dan? Well, it eventually became canon that it was his sole reason for existing was just to get Dan off of political conversation. I missed that crate. Oh, dude.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Cut to John Skipper in his own voice saying, yeah, that's exactly right. I think throughout all of this, part of the reason why you're not feeling it, and we got to a point later on at ESPN where that level of protection, it would just go over my head and they would go direct to you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
And the reason why they weren't really going direct to you wasn't because I was particularly effective in keeping them away. I was the only person that they could talk to because John Skipper had handpicked you. And with that came a lot of protection, protection that we would later find out we would sorely miss.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
In your defense, I don't think you were aware of it either, because if you were, you would have used it more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I don't think Dan would have abused it, but I think he would have pushed it a little bit more if he knew the levels of security that John's co-sign on our show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
i guess citing your encouragement donald trump runs for president and then the lines between sports and politics get more blurred donald trump weighs in on colin kaepernick uses a cuss word to describe colin kaepernick and the volume gets turned up on all of this and you see extremism find its way into sports because they're using sports as a pathway to further that agenda so
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Fun times ahead for the radio show. And we lose Skipper in the process and we lose all the protection. And then Dan realizes what he had when it's gone. So all that's coming up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
But in the next episode, we're going to hit pause on the narrative storytelling of our show and do something that we haven't been able to do yet, which is really focus on all the voices that helped us get the show to where it is. We haven't really had Greg Cody's voice bless us. on this show yet. And I want to be able to pick apart each and every individual voice, what our motivation was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
So the next episode is going to be a pause on the narrative. And we really hit a spotlight on all the co-hosts and additional voices that we brought in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Super invigorated by it. We were really pushing ourselves creatively and we had this whole new sandbox with the video element, which we were growing in confidence with that allowed us to do not necessarily video first executions, but video supplement. We were always keenly aware that we didn't want to alienate the audio audience, which was at this point really growing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
We made the move in mid days for a lot of reasons. Number one for me with a bullet was life balance. But number two was I think the show can get much bigger, not just because it's getting more clearance, but because our podcasts were digital first property. That's how most of our audience consumes us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
If we get to market earlier, I know, I just know, we're going to see that bear out over the podcast numbers, and it did. We were a podcast sensation. We were the biggest thing in sports podcasting, all while ESPN really knew very little about podcasting and how to monetize it, but we were crushing it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Allow the man to speak. You're fitting out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I mean, let the man speak.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
That's a good point. Waking Take is a judgment-free place. Oh, you're right, Dan. You're good. Yeah. Because remember, we established Waking Take's all about vibes. Yeah, it's all about vibes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
We accept your apology. Now fit in, please. Have the respect for us that we showed for you by accepting your apology.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
They don't think I'm going to take their phone calls? Hold your bluff. You've been saying it for four months.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
We had a full board of calls for people just waiting to silently wait for an entire segment to pass just so they could clap at the end of it. Right. So the people want to call, they just don't trust you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Hey folks, it's Mike Ryan and I need to talk to you about something that I use religiously. Anytime I'm hosting a big dinner party, I want to impress people and I get food from some of the most iconic, famous places in the country. You know what helps me do that? Goldbelly. This amazing site where I order from all the time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
It was the single biggest bet that we made as a show. No doubt. The decision to prioritize digital audio when you made your money not driving people away from the commercials. You made your money having people sit in their cars through those commercials.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Single biggest bet that we ever made was what we were best positioned for because we always had a keen understanding of where the industry was going. And to have this move coincide with this huge podcast boom that we were at the forefront of, it immediately paid dividends on a huge bet because it didn't come without risk. At the forefront, accidentally, I would say you were protecting things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I think that short sells like how strategic we were. When I say accidentally. We didn't stumble into this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Yeah, and there are some political ties with the Buccaneers like there are with the Jets that might allow you to read through some tea leaves. The Seattle one really angered me, too, because Pete Carroll sort of got preachy and took the opportunity to make it look like he was being nice to Colin Kaepernick. No, he's too good. to be a backup here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
He's a starter in this league, and then he signs a guy who hasn't thrown an NFL pass in three years. And if you can speculate by reading into what Colin Kaepernick retweets, because he's not actually talking about football, then you can see Colin Kaepernick was kind of bothered by it too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Yeah, they accidentally stepped into a lot of digital audio success because of our hard work, our decisions, our occasional fighting to keep this RSS feed alive. The RSS feed that you're listening to right now is the one that we created back in 790 in the bowels of Miami Gardens. It came with us through ESPN. I saved it seven times. You never actually did. And it followed us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Colonel Jessup, did you order the code wet?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
And we were very strategic with this and we were constantly trying to get, you know, podcast exclusive content.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I had one in my neighborhood when I was growing up. I lived in Westchester.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I lived in a middle class neighborhood and I had that guy show up at 10 a.m., which wasn't great when I was in college.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
Well, I was strategic with it, but me and my production team, the shipping container, you know, editing the podcast was a massive chore because I didn't want to have this huge runway of getting my podcast to market as soon as the show ends and then work on post-production for two hours. So you would occasionally lose a producer because we would post hours as they would finish.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I didn't mean to... I lived through it. I lived in a middle class neighborhood. There had to have been a reason why he kept coming back. Right? You wouldn't think that he'd make it a part of his route if he got no business there. That's true. Yep. Good point. I didn't have one in my neighborhood growing up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I mean, I've only heard someone screaming into a bad sound system. And it was the most... Oh, God, when you did that, a chill went down my spine. It's so exciting, though. I feel alive. No, you're always woken up because that horrible sound system and the guy just screams.

And that was a huge advantage for us. And we never really got that much pushback from ESPN as to how we were releasing it. There was one guy, ESPN, whose his whole job was digital, Pete Giancini, and he was just marveling. And he gave me a lot of great advice on cadence and how to release things.

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I know it was a bit controversial, especially with some of our contemporaries, our strategy to break it up, thinking that we were gaming a system. I would say, no, we're not gaming a system. We're actually getting the rewards for the work that we're doing.

doing other podcasts do maybe three hours of content a week you know we do four hours a day our episode lengths are just as long as your episode links it was really how espn wanted to do it i actually followed there because i was kind of old school rogan model let's just pump out three hours at one time it really helped shape and inform how i would go forward i wish we did a little bit more with digital video because those were the very early days but i wasn't getting leadership there from espn

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I was kind of leading the way when it came to digital audio. It was really cool to see that be a successful bet. And it was a little frustrating, too, in that we found even the worldwide leader couldn't sell it, couldn't monetize the podcast. Matter of fact, they never figured it out. They just outsourced it. They don't actually sell their own podcast inventory.

I wish I was smarter back then. I wish I was smarter and more capable. Well, Like, it was hard to see, though. I mean, I saw the podcast thing coming.

You don't say. And it is. It is. My main regret. My main regret there, if you will, on the digital video front is we didn't have to do that part particularly well. That actually didn't have to meet our standard. We just had to be doing it more actively. I wish I had a grandfathered RSS feed for video like I did with audio. That wasn't the case. So that's the one misstep I made.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I'm glad you mentioned that, too, because another thing that I kept away from you was the actual directing on site in Miami. Charlie had left to D.C., was going to start climbing in his career. We had Lorenzo's very green. We had a very small team in D.C. I was also kind of producing the video product as well, giving camera cues, making sure that it was relayed sometimes through.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
So you're producing us and you're talking to them at the same time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
That was our Washington product, but we had stage directors in Miami. We also had camera operators here in Miami. I mean, sometimes, look, I'm not going to relay a message to DC when this is a show that is so heavily reliant on comedic timing. So sometimes I just go direct to our camera operator and DC kind of falls in line.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But all that's to say, like, you needed to feel like that wasn't actually an operation that was going on.

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I learned how to produce TV. Right. And I learned right then and there that production is production to a large degree. Like a lot of the skill sets that I was leaning on when it came to the sonic experience of the show translated, whether it be communication, leadership, foresight, all that stuff, intuition.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 8
I knew where to put the cameras better than the camera operators just because I knew the show better. And by knowing the show better than anybody else, it also made me the most qualified person to produce and not to take anything away from people in D.C. But they were kind of following my lead there.

Thank you. You know what's fascinating about that story? And believe it or not, it's not that the fact that the ESPN suit doesn't listen or watch what's on ESPN. That job is pretty all-consuming.

And your relationship with TV just over the last few episodes, hating your fusion experience, going to ESPN, moving to middays, being on the main set to the point that we have to take a sabbatical from TV, a two week departure, no cameras at all, move back into our womb.

If he himself is bored by it, how can I get drawn in? I'm not disagreeing with his style of play. His style of play is very aesthetically pleasing. You don't see a guy that big be that skilled, but he is boring.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Michael Jordan vs. Nikola Jokic
I don't find the Chiefs boring, and this is probably going to drive some people crazy. Patrick Mahomes does not bore me, and Patrick Mahomes is probably a great comp for Jokic because you tune in any game, you might see something that you've never seen before at that position. Patrick Mahomes is cool. He's a superstar. He's engaging. He draws the audience in in ways that Jokic clearly doesn't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Michael Jordan vs. Nikola Jokic
And also, Patrick Mahomes is always there in the end. Jokic, we've had this conversation about him for three years. He's won one title. He's got to be there in the end.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Michael Jordan vs. Nikola Jokic
Yeah, but they've had a lot of one-score games, and every one-score game they turn to Patrick Mahomes. Sometimes they turn to their defense and they make plays, and you know Patrick Mahomes is going to do something on that final drive. I understand. This is the most boring incarnation, probably the most frustrating, and the first time that I've really felt Chiefs fatigue. That guy's just special.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Michael Jordan vs. Nikola Jokic
I like how you're not counting the Broncos' loss either. Yeah, don't count it. It wasn't even played. That wasn't real? Were these super exciting? Historically, Hopkins and Hollywood Brown, who is now healthy, right?

These are exciting receivers. Were these fast?

He was cocky though. I think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You want nine routes for Patrick Mahomes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Michael Jordan vs. Nikola Jokic
Okay, well, one 60-yard reception and a receiver that's capable of giving you that adds to the excitement.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But that was a draw to get Hollywood Brown. Like, come here, prove it here, and increase your value. And then he had the medical issue.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Michael Jordan vs. Nikola Jokic
I would love to give that receiving core to Josh Allen. And I'm the biggest Khalil Shakir guy that there possibly is. And also, he's on the IR. But Rasheed Rice is also a part of that unit. They've got talent now. Last year, fair. And Rasheed Rice hadn't come online. But they've got some talent around them. And now they're all getting healthy with the exception of Rasheed Rice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Is that still a thing, by the way? When he first got hurt, they were like, you could if they make a deep run.

Yeah, his one dimension is I'll catch a 45-yard bomb.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

They haven't been explosive, but their explosive guys have been hurt. Although Xavier Worthy, the first-round receiver, that is explosive.

Dan, I'm 39 years old. The only memories that I have of Michael Jordan are when he was winning. I don't remember the roadblocks. I needed the documentary to fill in those gaps. When he was losing to the Pistons, was Michael Jordan certifiably consensus the best player in the league?

Look at the efficiencies. Look at the scoring. Let me be clear. I don't disagree with you. In my mind, the most unstoppable basketball player I've ever seen is Jokic. We're wrong. We're wrong. No one's copping the Jokic shoes. I get the IG ads all the time. No one goes to the gym and says, you know what? I'm going to play like Jokic today. It's just not.

And it's like, had he known? Did he not know Mike McCarthy was the coach last year? The whole world knew that job was going to be available. What are we talking about?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Anyway, you were going to say? I don't know. You guys got a quarterback, huh? What do you mean? Your coach. Yeah, geez. Good morning, Billy. I'm rattled, yeah. What's the matter? You okay? Aaron Glenn, I saw, wants to have Aaron Rodgers back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Did you see poor Robert Sala was flying into Jacksonville last night for an interview while all of that was going down?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Might as well get right back on that bird, buddy. Jacksonville's making the Jets look good, huh? The Balkies. You okay, Billy? No. Goddamn football. God bless football. Oh, yeah. I missed even that up today.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
It seems like a weird phenomenon, and I don't know if you have thoughts on this, Adam, or maybe we're just overthinking it. It seems like kickers are getting more accurate from further away and less accurate from close. We've seen people drilling the long field goals this year at incredible accuracy and missing extra points seemingly every game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Adam, let's say in a strange world, this weekend you get a call. It's Andy Reid. He's panicked. Something happened with Harrison. Oh, wow. Something happened with Harrison. We need you in a pinch. How far can you still hit him from? What do you tell him?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
When does daddy stop letting the boys like win? You know what I mean? Like, are you still out there competing with them and kicking contests?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah. It's sad. You know what makes me happy, though? God bless football is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. I'm happy because it's going to be a fun Sunday. But after Sunday, it kind of all goes downhill. It's a very slow, sad march to the Super Bowl. I mean, we're going to be in New Orleans for Super Bowl week. So we'll be there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah, you're not included. You can't vote for yourself.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah. He was an MVP. Or if you want to suggest someone, Adam, feel free.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Is there such a thing, Adam, as like kicker envy? Like we hear from quarterbacks like, oh, I wish I could do that. I couldn't do that. Like certain quarterback could do. Do you have that with kickers? Like there's kickers that could do something you couldn't?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
You know who can't get further than him, Stugatz? His son.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
We'll enjoy some of the fun that Radio Row has to offer. But yeah, it's sadness because you realize... that the season is coming to an end. And once the season ends, I can't say that God bless football is presented by Smirnoff. We do game days. Please drink responsibly. The Smirnoff company, New York, New York. It's just a sad time. Last game of the year. There's only three of them left. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
NFC championship, AFC championship. And then the Super Bowl. And then it's all over. And then after this week, things get complicated because if you do our weekly fantasy contest, which is presented by Smirnoff, the world's number one vodka, please drink responsibly. And you can compete against us. You go to DKNG.co slash Smirnoff. There's really only two teams. This week, there's four.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
You're playing for the NFC championship. Look at you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So you mentioned that this is the third time that you guys play this year. Their offensive coordinator, Kellen Moore, was your offensive coordinator last year. How does that work out? Because obviously you have a game plan from the past games. But like the first time you see him, do you like go up and volunteer like, hey, I have all this information.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I think they may do X, Y, Z to people come ask you like, how does that work?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
There's four, but it's hard. And here's the thing about this week that is tricky. And we're going to get to the NFC championship in a moment. Here's the thing that's tricky. Tricky. The cheapest starting quarterback available right now is Patrick Mahomes. Oh, boy. Weekly fantasy contest. Yeah. And I don't think that I want to take Patrick Mahomes. Like, that's the crazy thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And I anticipate it not being great weather. So I don't know what we're doing here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, I looked up the weather because there was a time when maybe we were going to go to this game. I looked up the weather, and it doesn't seem like snow is on the horizon. But it's definitely not going to be 85 and sunny. So... I don't know that this is going to be a high-scoring affair. I mean, I hope that it is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Have you ever personally had a situation where like you have to remind yourself, lock back in because the energy is you're getting too excited or the energy is too much like headed into the game? They're like, let's just like take a step back, like refocus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
During the season and during the playoffs, do you do you get to take a step back and like admire what some of the other running backs do like the year that Saquon has had and the way that you see him kind of like what you're saying is like slow it down, like not hit the initial gap, take a step, and then he breaks one for 70 yards.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Do you watch film like that and say like, wow, holy crap, like what he's doing is special? Or do you are you just kind of focused on you and your team and kind of what you have coming up that week?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And I don't like the people that are like, hey, just because you don't score, you know, 30 points, that doesn't mean that it was a bad game. Like, that's fine. But like 1310, like, I don't think we're going to be leaving saying like, wow, that was like a defensive masterclass. This was great because if we're going to be honest, Buffalo is not capable of a defensive masterclass.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So if it's a low scoring game, it's not because defense was great. It's because it wasn't a super fun game to watch.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Let me tell you something, Austin, real life sucks. Don't leave football. You don't want to get to real life. You don't want to get to marriage. Yeah. Body hurts, but like, you'll take that pain over the pain. Yeah. My body doesn't hurt. Yeah. Like don't, don't do it. Play as long as you can and enjoy these happy years because once you hit real life, Oh buddy, you're going to miss football.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
How much of a fan is your wife? Like, how much football does she consume? Is she at every game? Because, like, I have an idea for you if she's not paying close attention. And that is, if you don't want to go through the whole pains of another season, and maybe she's not keeping a close eye, maybe we just fake a season. You know what I mean?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And then you have, like, a you year where you go and you're like, this is very... Yeah, very regimented. And then it's just a lot of you time. You know what I mean? When you transition from football to like the rest of your life and you just slowly go into it, you like stick with your schedule. You're like, bye, honey. See you later. Off to work.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Sometimes. Sometimes they're great at defense. Sometimes. Love Spags.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And she doesn't know the difference if she's not paying attention. If she is, I would have recommended because you'll get caught and it'll be very suspicious. Yeah, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, tell DQ, tell, hey, just make sure that we have another 30 out there next year. You know what I mean? And then like, what difference do we know?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I'm just saying we have some clunkers in there every now and again. You know what I mean? We do, yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
When you do, obviously not that we're talking about retirement, but when you do, do you think that you're going to stay connected to the game in some way or stay following the game? Or are you going to kind of disconnect from it for a little bit?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, that's the thing. It's also hard, right? Because this is your life. This has been your life, what you've been working towards the entire time. And then all of a sudden, you can't just cut it off like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
It's going nowhere. Don't worry about Europe. It'll always be there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
No, I'm a 300s guy. No, I'm a cheap guy. I'm a 300s guy. You think that I'm like a suite level guy? No, no, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
When's the last time you cried after the Super Bowl because football was done?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
No, I'm a nosebleed guy. He's a 300 level guy, Mike. I'm a nosebleed guy. You're a 300 level guy. Fine. I'm looking online and like... I see the prices and I'm like, three rows from the top is fine for me. Right. Because I'm not paying twice the price. I did that in Pittsburgh.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Good decision. As you should. I've always thought the Super Bowl is exciting, but to your point, it's really kind of like even a sad week at Radio Row because it's kind of like a march towards the death of the season. You know the season's over.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Opening night is fun. Super Bowl week is fun because everybody's in town. You get to see people. You get to interview people, hang out. But you know that the party's over on Sunday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I was going to say the sadness lasts like two weeks and then you're in Indianapolis at a combine. You're like, OK, this never actually does end.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
What I do is I hit zoom all the way out so that I can see every single possible seat. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, if I'm going to be honest with you, I have been – I've been looking the last two weeks have been. Plans have been in motion to maybe get me to cold games just for content purposes. We spoke about Buffalo, I think the other on Monday we spoke about my plans to go to Buffalo for the Buffalo game against the Ravens. And then that didn't get cleared, so it didn't happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Chris, I don't know if you saw it yesterday. I believe it was the day before. You mentioned how Josh takes care of the ball. He doesn't turn the ball over now. He's learned where they ask him. On that third and goal where you were rushing in, you looked like you wanted to pitch that ball back and try to get someone into the end zone. He's like, no. I was like, did I think about it? Absolutely.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Would old Josh have done that? Absolutely. That's what I'm saying.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Oh, my gosh, he's going to do that? Don't do that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
But I was looking for a snow game then. And then this past week, we got an invitation to go to the game. And this goes against everything that we've spoken out against it. we were invited to see the game in a suite. So it wouldn't have been a cold game. Nice and cozy. But it's a situation where the flights were not going to allow for us to, or allow for me to make it to that game and come back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Hold on a second. What numbers are you crunching here in this analysis of yours? He counted quarterbacks. He was like, one quarterback's good, two.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
It was, well. It was very nice of her, yes. I'm not going to say. Me and Billy. I very much appreciate the invitation from our friend, Ed. Right. But we were not going to be able to. I was not going to be able to make it up there and get back. And, you know, anywho. Yeah. Cut off. Yes. Is it just cold or is it cold in the elements?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
No, I saw. I saw. And there's there's like a two to four percent chance of precipitation. And the wind was only six miles an hour. I did my research. Good. I wow. I'm impressed. 30 is not 30. Honestly. Summer day. Summer day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
On Thanksgiving, though, are you ever that guy? Thanksgiving family? Of course. Of course they are. That's why all the kids want to be on my team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
That's all. Chris knows from Thanksgiving.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Get some hand warmers in there. It's an open air 30. Yeah. Open air 30. Oh, I know. Arrowhead's one of my second homes. Yeah, Chief Kingdom. Yeah, exactly right. Arizona being the first, right? Well, I have a number of second homes, so. What are you, Golic now? I don't play favorites. Well, my second homes don't come with houses. They come with quality inns, you know?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Drew Locke gave you guys a memorable game. It cost you the number one pick in the draft, but you had a five touchdown Drew Locke game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Because in the hotel front, I'm also a 300-level guy, if I'm going to be honest with you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I'm good for Wednesday night. I like Wednesdays. He's up to something, Chris.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Wait, hold on. Where are you doing it? Like a live show?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, it sounds like you're putting this together. You need some guests. I mean, we might have some availabilities. You know what I mean? I need a little help.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Can I tell you real quick, it's a game I like to call Zip It Up. Just real quick, because I'm sure you guys would love this game. By the way, we haven't gotten into the AFC and the NFC Championship games. That's what people want to talk about this week. We're going to get to it with some of our guests. They are good games. Great games. Can we just zip it up, Sean McVay? Like, just...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Oh, Carl. Oh, Carl. We have a development from last week that we're going to have. I think we're going to need you involved in, but I don't think that there's much, if any, wiggle room in this situation. Okay, let me hear it. We'll get to it shortly. Stugatz is joining here, but we have various witnesses to what happened. Mojo, I don't think, is aware of the situation. Oh boy, what happened?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah, Mojo, we can't see you. I don't know if it's intentional or not. I need to hear about this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I believe that Mike Rawless is the only person that was familiar with what was going on and agreed to this. Oh, and he's joining now, which is perfect. This is true, I can tell already. He too is involved in this scenario, unfortunately, and he may be the one that is affected most. the most, aside from Kay Funk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So Carl, Cher Bear, Mike, Gordy, Kay Funk, the rest of the class. Last week, Kay Funk was extended an offer, a unique offer, For the college football national championship game. A very generous offer, Mojo. You're not aware of this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
The offer was if Kay Funk won the game, won his pick, like he selected against the spread, if he won that, it would count as plus 10 wins. However, if he lost... it would count as 10 losses.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And Mojo, seeing as you came in and you said... that you would be taking opposite Funk, that meant if Kay Funk won, you would get 10 losses and he would get 10 wins. So there was a potential for a 20-game swing in the standings. Redmaster. Yeah. Okay. Now...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, thank you for ruining the end of the story, Stugatz.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
zip it up Sean McVay I don't want to hear from you that you want an answer about Matthew Stafford's future sooner rather than later where every year you play the game am I going to retire as a 37 year old head coach like I love it zip it up okay I don't want to hear from you trying to rush Matthew Stafford when you are always keeping people in limbo about your future that spoiler alert always ends with you coaching again because you've been a coach for six minutes enough right
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, okay, so here's the situation. K-Funk ended up taking Notre Dame plus eight and a half.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So for those unfamiliar with how that game ended, Notre Dame had it within eight points, and then there was a seemingly meaningless field goal with 20 seconds left in the game to make it an 11-point game, thus costing K-Funk 10 losses and giving Mojo 10 wins. Hold on to it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
it got even better the guy ran out of the end zone for the two-point conversion so i didn't the game end at nine uh that was yeah that happened in the nfl yeah that was that was that was as well and k-funk lost that game as well k-funk because of that safety k-funk last week went 1 12 and 1
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So here's the thing. It was looking like Carl had a bad week at 0-3-1, but Kay Funk came in at 12-1-1. Sherbert had a 1-2-1. Gordy had a 2-1-1. Here's where there may be controversy. So I updated the standings, and I have an update of the standings headed into last week and then after last week. So headed into last week, Mike Rollis was our new leader in the clubhouse. He had a 593 win percentage.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
He had surpassed Mojo with a 579 win percentage. What? Yes. Yes. Yes. Mike Rollis has been hot as of late. Carl has a 558 win percentage. Gordy has a 488 win percentage. Kay Funk had a 441 win percentage. And Sherbert had a 411 win percentage. Now, after last week... There's been change in the standings because Mojo went 12-1-1 and K-Funk went 1-12-1.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So because of the 12-1-1, Mojo now has a 6-21 win percentage and Mike Rollins has a 6-0-8 win percentage. Oh, my gosh. And Pat, the spreadmaster.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
You're welcome. Had Mojo only been 3-0-1, Mojo's win percentage would have been 585 and Mike Rawless would still be the leader at 608. So the 12-1-1 has now catapulted Mojo back into first place now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Hold on. Hold on, Carl. Let me finish. There's nothing to say no to. I will say this. I will say this. Mike was in the room when we made this agreement, and he approved of said agreement.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
So I don't know that there's a lot that he can argue. I will say this. Just one last thing, and I don't know if this will sway the jury here. Because of his 1-12-1 record last week, Kay Funk's win percentage is now 394, and he has fallen below Cher Bear for the season at 410 win percentage. So Kay Funk is now in last place after his 112-1 week. All right, let's have Carl speak here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
How's that sound? I'd rather hear sooner rather than later. Yeah, so would everybody else who's trying to figure out if you're going to be the coach of your team or not when you do this ridiculous charade of I'm going to retire in my 30s from being a head coach. Sure. Guy. you haven't made enough money to retire yet. Okay. Like enough.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
hold on a second hold on a second hold on maybe we can okay let's hear carl i think i think look i think we all agree k-fun gets the 10 losses right i think maybe i think that's absolutely i never that is fact All right, hold on a second. Maybe, maybe. Okay, how about this? Maybe we can do this. Because Rollis was in first place.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Maybe what we can do is maybe we split the 10 wins and Mojo gets five and Mike Rollis gets five. Kayfung still gets his 10 losses and we all are happy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I'd be happy with that. He didn't even stand to lose anything in that. I think the most important thing, though, is Cato gets the 10 losses.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
12 losses. Well, we would have to have this arbitration. Putting my record on the line.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I think Gordie was in last week too. That's no way to live, sir. How about this? You want a couple wins, Carl? We can throw you a couple wins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Maybe Mo just stays with five, give you three, Rollis two. As long as Caleb gets the ten losses, we're good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, I'll say this before Kayfung comes in and starts spreading his propaganda. I was going to get to the games right after this. I know what he's going to say. Well, we have two games. I know what he's going to say. So when things get started, if you guys remember correctly last week, the original starting place was 10 wins and five losses.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Oh, I'm going to go into broadcasting on and do this and that enough. You're going to coach next year. Okay. You got nothing else going. You're going to coach.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And then we said that would then be five wins and 10 losses for Mojo. And then as we were talking it out, I subtly changed it to 10 and 10, kept saying 10 and 10 over and over again and asked, do you agree to this? And he said he agrees to this. Now, Billy started at 10 and 5, but I kept changing it to 10 and 10 until he ultimately agreed to 10 and 10, not knowing that it had been changed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
But it was cleared stated or stated clear as day over and over. Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
All right. We need to add one note. Hold on. K-Funk, is that true? Is that true, K-Funk? Is that true, K-Funk? Wait, hold on. Mojo has something.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
that's not true he should be held completely false allegation yeah i don't know i was nearly a witness all right okay fuck you'll get your you'll get your chance just hang in there okay after we pick the game sign off on it yes right right right no he was nearly a witness yeah i think you sign off on it i didn't sign off on it and i did not sign off on it there you go i just witnessed it yeah you nod your head like in any sort of direction
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I think I went, oh, man. So if anything, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
NFC championship. I want to hear you say zip it up. I said, zip it up, zip it up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
That's great. I also say this. Gordy was in a very bad spot about six weeks ago where he asked us flat out. Thank you. I did want to discuss that. Thank you for bringing it up. Please do not say my record because of how bad it is. And now he's one game under 500. Gordy has very quietly gone on a tear as of late, and he's got himself right back in the mix.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
NFC championship. Are we excited? Which game are you more excited about? I feel like the NFC Championship might end up being the more exciting of the two games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
What a comeback story. Comeback player of the year, Gordon. Well done.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
What are you doing? I mean, it seems like this has been settled. So maybe we just get to the games to God.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Well, we'll revisit the Mojo and Rolesting. We'll take it under advisement and figure out what we do here so we don't get caught up in this, I think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
What do you mean? Yeah, but you're still going to dictate. You want it worth 10? Oh, we didn't get to you. What did you want to say before? Sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
That's not audio. What do your notes say, just out of curiosity? Because every week you tell us you have notes and you've never shown them to us. Is it just like doodles?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah, same thing. I'm with Carl. Let's keep it short.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah, this is an important pick. So did you take the Commanders or the Eagles? I did. I did. I took the Commanders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
They're both second to last place and last place.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I'd really like to just really quickly throw my hat in the ring for rookie of the year. Yeah. Gordie was comeback player of the year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And then I'm going to, speaking of Gordie, I'm going to make the mistake that he's made too many times this year, and I'm going to get emotional. And, you know, I want it. My brain wants to pick the Chiefs, but I just want the Bills to do it, man. So I'm going Buffalo. Okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah. So it's 39 degrees, partly cloudy, 9-mile-an-hour winds. So 39, it's not going to snow, you wouldn't think. I mean, it can't snow if it stays 39. In Philly, you're saying. Yeah, yeah. So that game, it's not going to be the weather we saw last week in Philly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I don't know if the kids should hear whatever you're going to say.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Mikey, I'll tell you this. If it was up to me, you'd be there, like in a heartbeat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah, well, you know, he started by you. I don't know what to tell you. Yeah. What's the matchup you guys want to see?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
commanders would be fun i think i agree i don't want to see eagles chiefs again we already saw it so well commanders would be fun because then we also get the situation where we try to fire nick sirianni so like right right i like i like the fire nick sirianni after an a or nfc championship loss and i think the three of us are pulling for a boy austin eckler to get to a super bowl here so yes definitely one yeah austin eckler um
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Washington and Buffalo would be fun because, as we noted, Buffalo, not exactly known for their defense. So we could have a fun, maybe high-scoring Super Bowl, a little back and forth between the commanders and the Bills. Give me the history. Give me the Chiefs. Give me them going for the three-peat. Again, I wouldn't mind a three-peat. I really wouldn't mind a three-peat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And if the Chiefs won this year again, even after their 15-2 regular season, maybe one of their more impressive Super Bowl wins. You're right. Some are more impressive than others. I'm with you on that. They had to go through the likes of Bo Nix to get there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
the dominant that's what happens when you get the one c two home games to a super bowl billy that's what brady did it would be it would be funny if like the chiefs go to the super bowl against the commanders win the super bowl and then like things do not play out the way that we hope they do play out and in five years like man the chiefs went through bonics
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
And then they went through Josh Allen and the Bills, which is okay. You're leaving out C.J. Stroud. I forgot about Stroud.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Oh, you know what? They didn't go through Bo Nix. Bo Nix was the Bills. Yeah, they didn't go through Bo Nix.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
I had to zip it up. Yeah, I had to zip it up. The Balkys. I wonder if Balky wasn't there, what kind of feeding frenzy there would have been to coach Trevor Lawrence, you know?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Did you see Belichick finally signed his contract? Oh, really?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- A Real 300's Guy
Yeah, he's locked in for five minutes now.

You don't have to dig your heels on this one. Everyone admits this was a mistake. We can all move on. You don't need to have a think piece as to why we're right. And you certainly don't have to say sports stay in your lane here when they were. They absolutely were. And if it wasn't for sports, they would have gotten away with this heinous thing. So thank you, sports.

He was, but Jeremy, for the uninitiated, bring him up to speed on this Jackie Robinson story. And there are also friends of the show that got entangled in this, and I'd like to chew on that a little bit as well.

Division is good. This is an easy place to cause division, and it's not often that that administration has an overwhelmingly popular position. And the sentiment in this country – aligns itself more with that view than what is projected onto Democrats, which may not even be accurate. Like I said, within the Democratic Party, there's general consensus and alignment there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
But it's just an easy winning position. And Dems probably have to find a different talking point on it.

Hey everybody, it's Mike Ryan, and how great is this weather? We're getting out of the coldest part of winter into the early onstage spring. I know down south, the weather is perfect. It is perfect Miller time weather. You got MLB, MLS, you got NHL, you got all the sports going on, plenty of excuses to gather around a TV and have yourself a wonderful Miller time.

Don Libetard. That's not my favorite rejoin. Context needs to be applied. Over a joke. I thought the context was applied. We'd like to rip that out of context. I was going for a thing. And I have a family.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I don't love Matthew Kachuk more than my daughter. Stugatz. Now it's pretty damn close.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
We move on to something of, I guess, not equal importance, but pretty seismic nonetheless. John Cena's heel turn. Now, John Cena, for many of you, you know about this. It's basically, there was everything before John Cena's heel turn, and then everything that happened since. One thing that I can't wrap my brain around, Zazz, is what's in it for Travis Scott?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
That is surprising. You were there with your son? I was there with my son. You should have said, no, I was there by myself. I love Travis Scott.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
He's got a great energy. He's a good live performer. Oh, my God.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
It's like the new rock show. It's like the new mosh pit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, pretty crazy. In terms of being able to control an audience and command an audience, for better or worse, given Travis Scott's history, sometimes it gets away from him. But being able to put fans in a total uproar and get them to lose their minds, Travis Scott can command an audience. And I know that it's loaded given his history, but I don't know why he would punch Cody Rhodes in the face.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
He couldn't even block it. He couldn't defend himself. Cheap shot that seemed to do some real damage.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I'm very down on Travis Scott. Poor Cody. But then John Cena disappears for a couple of weeks, and we don't have any answers for his actions. All we have are questions. So John Cena finally appears. And by the way, I love—great idea to have this build-up for WrestleMania really kick off in earnest in Europe. European crowds are the absolute best. They are so good at these wrestling events. I—
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Well, they're just so used to song because of soccer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yes, because their sporting culture is so great, where here it's just like, Let's go Cena! Defense! Defense! Maybe the occasional, Everybody clap your hands! You're saying bangers right now. What's wrong with what you're saying? Look, I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel here, but I do like what Europe does with it where they sing popular songs and they make soccer chants into wrestling chants.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
It's a great thing. We should encourage that here in the States. But it's really good for WWE too because it helps establish clear narratives and the fans watching at home are going to take their note from the fans over there in the audience. It's like, oh... Cody Rhodes is actually still over as a babyface, this rare white bread babyface. It's a perfect crowd, man. It was great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
So John Cena comes out, and I didn't like certain aspects of this, but it caught me so off guard, Zazz, because I didn't expect this to be the direction. I didn't expect him to come out in the same Fruity Pebbles t-shirts. Right, me neither. I thought he was gonna do something to his look. I thought he was gonna, I mean, his face changed when he got the signal from The Rock, so I thought.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I think it's because they printed a lot of T-shirts, and they probably decided on this, he'll turn a little late in the game, but whatever, like, that's fine. But there's logic here. They can reverse engine. It was just totally expected that, like, okay, we're gonna go, we're gonna make John Cena the chicken shit heel, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Okay, that's not exactly... But it makes sense with the long-term storytelling because John Cena hasn't been able to win a match on his own, head-to-head. So he resorts to some of the evil. But I didn't like that he didn't mention The Rock. I didn't like that he didn't mention Travis Scott.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Let it play itself out over a few weeks. I'm willing to go with this. I think that... I was really surprised. This past week was about, I got a problem with the fans. Yeah. Cody Alfa to him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
This was refreshing in that Cody has kind of been built up by all of his, you know, going up against The Rock, going up against Roman Reigns. He's always been. Every Raw leading up to WrestleMania was Cody Rhodes getting his ass kicked. There wasn't time for Cody Rhodes, really, in any of these programs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Like, he's worked some good matches, good programs with Kevin Owens and AJ Styles, where he's gotten to be a tough guy. But I really like the dynamic, which is like, Cody Rhodes, I've headlined WrestleMania. Like, you lose all the time. If this is the guy that I'm facing, I'm going to Kill you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
They go to that well occasionally with Cody Rhodes when they really want to hammer home a point. I'm not the biggest fan of it, but I want the storytelling to evolve. But I was so caught off guard by him coming out with his traditional look. I liked it. And by the logic to his turn and not invoking The Rock that I was like, OK, I'm kind of in on this because I'm surprised by it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
And it's not often that wrestling surprises people. And it's done so with this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
He had the sticker still on the shirt. No way. It looked like a plant. What's the matter with you? And you got the kid who was shook. They had the camera locked in when he goes like, and this kid, like they talked about that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
The logic behind a dude that has just been beaten down by social media and fans like I can't do right. And after 20 years, like it's finally gotten to me, it actually tracks. And a lot of it's actually happening in pop culture, too. We're seeing like Drake fatigue and he's kind of had a bit of a heel turn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
certainly happening in hip-hop a lot with some of the other names that we've referenced there for way different reasons but it does kind of tap into what's going on with pop culture the guys that were celebrated are now vilified through a lot of their own in some cases heinous actions but it's cool to see art kind of imitate life a little bit here and i'm
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I'm very curious to see where this one goes. I'm excited. This is fresh, and it's not often that WWE feels fresh. Look, there's a good guy, there's a bad guy, someone gets low-blowed. There's only so many things that you can do in the world of wrestling.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Turning John Cena heel, we've never, well, we have seen it before in his earlier days, but not as a megastar, as the face of a generation of wrestling. So I'm really curious to see where this one goes, and I'm super hyped for WrestleMania season. Are you going out there?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Hang out with all the wrestling fans.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
West Coast WrestleManias, by the way, are the best.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, they start. So you're done. The worst part about leaving Philadelphia, it takes you an hour to leave the stadium. All right, boys, what are we going to be doing now? It's 1 a.m. It's hard to catch a vibe there. West Coast, WrestleMania?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I'm sorry. Tony, you're looking a little rough around the edges lately. Is this a new look? Are you pivoting?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Is this your Justin Timberlake Man in the Woods era?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Every 10 days? I go every 10 days as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I would have never been able to tell that. Big boy. Roy also does that. That's right. Yeah, Roy cuts his own hair.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I like that part. It's nice. I read about sharks attacking people all the time. One thing I haven't read about in a very long time is, oops, barber accidentally killed somebody.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
That was the last guy. Ryan Adams was in the band. The demon barber of Fleet Street was the last person. And he was intentionally doing it. The accidental throat slash during the shave, that's something that, and I'd be on that algo.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
The world's a big place. A lot of bad barbers out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, it goes to somebody else, man. What are you paying? What are you paying? Don't worry about me. I'm curious. I'm not going to take a quiz. Zazz, how much do you think is too much for a haircut? Definitely 50.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I wrote down the number that I pay every 10 days. I wrote it down here. I'm just going to slide it over to you on the table. You tell me if that's too much. This is including tip. This is including tip.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I tipped $15 on a $45 haircut, so I paid $60. Look, Rosie's good. You know who goes to Rosie? Ubaldo Jimenez. You think I'm not going to trust Ubaldo Jimenez's barber?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I get five bucks when I take my son. So it took me forever to go from $10 to $15 because it was just what I was doing. And then I was like, man, that's pretty bad. Let me get it at $15. And then breaking that routine got me to go from $15 to $20 real quick. But here's the thing, guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Absolutely not. I'm a Primos guy. I'm a five-star guy. That's all right. You can be a five-star guy. Tell me your price. I'm not going to tell you that. But what I'm going to tell you is... If I drop your name, if I say, hey...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Because everyone's like, I want the Tony price.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
But everybody's like, this guy's such a great billboard for my business. This guy goes out like, hey, your hair looks incredible. Where do you get your hair cut?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
This was a dude that shaved my head? Yes. Twice in 20 years. Terrible job. And you've mentioned it like five times. No, he nailed it. I was definitely bald. Just wasn't happy with the results.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Your boy came back, though. It allowed me to get some topical treatments on there and really attack the problem at its root. No doubt. What I kept telling myself is there are some people that when they shave it, it does come back stronger.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, you want to vet them through your guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
You don't have like a black tie event where you're like, I should probably.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
So you let the beard grow for a couple of days and then you shave it down?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
You raw dogged the electrical razor.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Raw dogging. That is raw dogging.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
No, no, no, no. Right. No, but any topical treatments after the fact? No, I don't need it. You got to kind of do that. You get ingrown hairs and whatnot. Alcohol. Do I have any? Yeah. What? What do you mean, yeah?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Like, all across your neck, unless that's rosacea, which it might be the case.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
But it's along the neckline. Am I having a bad skin day? Like, there. You got some shaving bumps there, pal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
You can't call me a liar right here. He was saying that he didn't get ingrown hairs or shaving bumps. No, I do it all myself. Why don't you go full beard? He has over a dozen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Fat Joe has an incredible product. He's on the cover of it. He's on the cover of it. All right, so we'll get away from your hair and back to, look, sports equinox is happening. Niche sport equinox is happening, especially down here locally. We have ATP. We've got WTA. We've got Homestead Motor Speedway. But everyone's going to be pretty locked in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
on March Madness, even though the ratings down here are pretty bad historically. Always. We don't have a team, we don't have a horse in the race this year, but give me a March Madness set of the day to get me excited for what's on tap.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, you actually didn't really have to watch any of it. And you didn't, like, I know I didn't miss much. But I will be watching Omir. That's my guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
But you're saying the balance of things, it'll work out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Well, the Baylor game, they're a one-and-a-half-point dog, so it's an 8-9. Live doggy. Yeah, you got to think that that game will be close.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Another tournament that is kind of hit or miss so far is the March Sadness tournament, Chris.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
So March sadness polarizing again this year. I think most a lot of the feedback that I'm getting that's on the negative side is from exclusive podcast listeners. And I kind of get that because these are fan submitted videos and they're largely visual. You have the fan pointing and stuff. So we'll do a better job of trying to describe what's going on by not stepping on some folks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
But do we have any submissions today, Chris Cody?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
High production quality there for 16th. That's not the way that a 1 versus 16 should go. That's a tough break. When it's a 1 versus 16, I should never ask, who's the 1 seed? I mean, it was a good limited fake.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, in retrospect, very confused as to why Dan didn't talk about the Jackie Robinson story.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Jeremy, not only do you tickle the keys. Good for you. You tickle other things, I learned yesterday. Relax. But part of your duties here, your ambiguous, amorphous duties here is occasionally you invoke your musical talent. And you had a song ready for Dan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
We all knew that Dan was going to go to Jackie Robinson. And then he didn't. And then he didn't. So we never got to play this song. It's amazing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I mean, that's an earworm. Ah, come on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
It just means black. I'm really proud of you right there. Again, we got March Madness today. Hopefully we turned things around. It was a tough day for those that were following the ACC and listened to our agenda here on the...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Because this discriminated against whom? Jackie Robinson or... White people. That's where it kind of feels like.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Well, I mean, with Jackie Robinson, yes. Right? He broke the color barrier. He was a great player, but also he was the first to break the color barrier because he was a great player, but that was a big deal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Some of my best friends are Jackie Robinson. I went to a Jackie Robinson wedding once.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I'd be curious if there was a Ted Williams story that remained up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
It's like a huge part of their marketing campaign is... We used to have to draft people. I know that there were wars going around, but historically, not easy to recruit there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
So there was a story that I was actually pretty fired up about yesterday. It was like the topic du jour, and we didn't actually get around to it. I was stunned. I can't believe it. It's the Dan Lebitard Show with Stu Gatz, and Dan didn't want to talk about the Jackie Robinson story. It was on a T-form. This one's easy, folks. If you asked AI...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Okay. I know Zaz says I get what they're trying to say there. And I guess I kind of, too, like the spin on it, right? But to ignore race is to ignore a pretty big connection point. Your job is to recruit. Ultimately, all these branches of the military are actively trying to recruit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
people to join and race is a connection point for a lot of people jackie robinson's story might resonate with people that you're actively trying to recruit they may be black they may be latino they may be white but it is a story that resonates in part because he was a dude that broke the color barrier to ignore that fact works against your best interest if you're actively trying to recruit people you know who it doesn't resonate with robert griffin iii
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
So Stephen A. Smith did like a six. minute thing on this on first take you can have your opinions on that but that didn't really get aggregated all that much but Dov Kleinman is calling for Mina Kimes to get fired because she did like the easiest take on this with her around the horn victory time her face time there it was weird they went at Mina and
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
And I understand why they go, Mina, they have algorithms for this stuff. They know who does numbers. But they ignore the dude that apparently can talk about, well, not apparently, negotiated in his contract. He can talk about politics with full autonomy over there. Is it possible that's why they didn't, you know? No, no. No, it's not because they go at Mina because Mina does numbers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
It's like if you check Breitbart, they still post about Megan Rapinoe occasionally because they know what gets traction over there. Mina Kimes does numbers, invoking her name and calling this amorphous account because it's not a real person anymore. But they can't actually say it's not a real person anymore because that goes against Twitter's rules because a guy can't just sell his account.

bot essentially that has a whole bunch of different people working aggregator essentially calling no well doing the cute calling should mina kimes be fired question mark as some people are saying this and it's overly ridiculous and it's totally unfair and i hope that people dunk on dove the way that that mina did but to the robert griffin the third point is this is a sports story

Jackie Robinson is one of the first names that comes to mind when you want to talk about sports. Jackie Robinson did sports. He did nothing yesterday. His legacy was just existing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Well, that's not what that means anymore. They changed it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Wait, wait. Jeremy, I feel as passionately about this as you do. But I do want to try to... keep it to sports a little bit in that sports was just doing sports. Sports was, in this instance, just minding its own business. It's just minding its own business and sports realized, hey, there's sports that's being removed. Why is sports being removed?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Politics comes over and grabs sports and it's not the other way around. And trust me, It's hugely frustrating because the same people that tout that line, and I don't know if Robert Griffin III has expressed this before, but I'm watching the Daytona 500 and I'm seeing Donald Trump fly in and take several laps. several laps around the Daytona Motor Speedway.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
What was the hallmark of a good show? Homework of a good show. I have good things that I needed to get to and he didn't get to. A Jackie Robinson race and sports story. A politics story. Well, Blaney was great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
And I can't exactly keep politics out of sports there, can I?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, there's a lot of times where politics gravitate to sports to lift it up. Look, Donald Trump essentially helped. One of the big issues that Donald Trump campaigned on and was successful on and found general consensus even across the aisle was, That trans swimmer, that's bad. We can't have guys playing in girls' sports. This is the line.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
And while that is crude, there is general consensus on this topic, even amongst liberals. It is a winning position. So they come to sports all the time to grab their winning positions. All the time. Sports has actively been trying to stay out of politics. Hell, even this show has, kind of. Like, we know. We know that you don't like it. So sports is sportsin'.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
When politics comes over and grabs sports, sports has a right to clap back, especially on something like this, which is so easy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
And also, there are people that are still defending its removal because they've just decided to commit to the party line when the party itself has come out and said, my bad. My bad. We got that one wrong. It might have even been a mistake.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
No, it's not. This is what they do, man. There have been lives. I was at a town hall last week, and there was a marine biologist for NOAA that got fired, and her supervisor didn't know about it. She got a crude letter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
I really enjoyed that interview. While this is an easy topic for Dana and the rare winning position where the intersection of sports and politics meet... Ryan Blaney was great. He was terrific.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
and it wasn't even signed did not know who fired her winter the superior this is a worker that had hit all our marks even got even attained a bonus because she was so superlative at her job her supervisor didn't know about this i believe there was another uh scientist that worked on hurricanes that had actually gotten fired in a similar fashion then rehired and then a day later fired again all of this is messy it's like they're literally typing in they're taking inventory
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
of what could be lumped into DEI. And that is about as crude as it can get. Jackie Robinson, black guy, DEI. And they're just typing that in and eliminating things. And they're doing this with people's lives and jobs. And they're just typing in these things into a big machine and just crudely cutting things out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
And people like Jeff Passan and all these other journalists need to keep catching these things, especially things like that. That's a good day for journalism yesterday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Very rare. It was a good day for sports. And this was something I think everybody can kind of get behind. Jackie Robinson, to quote the great Jonathan Zaslow, awesome. Awesome. This one's easy. They admitted hours later. They got it wrong. Why is this a hill to die on still?

Hey everybody, it's Mike Ryan, and how great is this weather? We're getting out of the coldest part of winter into the early onstage spring. I know down south, the weather is perfect. It is perfect Miller time weather. You got MLB, MLS, you got NHL, you got all the sports going on, plenty of excuses to gather around a TV and have yourself a wonderful Miller time.

Stugatz. He gives them one of these, and he gives them one of those. This is the Don Levitas Show with the Stugatz. So you had date night, which means you, I guess, luckily didn't watch any of the tournament games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Last year, we ran into this, too, especially with the first two rounds. We kept waiting for those moments, and then we had to wait a little bit later.

Dude, that usually means you stand the test of time. There are different search engines there, but people say, hey, go ahead and Google that for me.

They might make it all the way back here. I was happy as someone sitting on Clemson Live plus 12 and a half. But Stripes also kind of played a role in that, too. They were letting them play there a little bit.

I'm going to be so bad at helping you out here. This is the first year I haven't filled out a bracket.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It wasn't a great day for the ACC. Creighton, another secret sauce. I know you just did the dismissive, huh, Jeremy? We do this every month. I guarantee you there's going to be an ACC team in that Final Four. There always is. We're going to look at the lay of the land.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
The SEC teams will end up cannibalizing each other, and then we'll realize that the narrative is... Look, NC State made it, and they were crazy. crap last year. They made it to the Final Four as an ACC team. Miami was waving the banner. Speaking of Miami, I am locked in at 12-15.

So Zazz, you mentioned you had a date night. What'd you do?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I've long maintained he kind of went at a good time. He died at a good time. Yeah, I'm telling you. You mean for him? Advantageous for him. Yeah, look, in retrospect, good way to go out. Good time to go out. That was before a lot of stuff. Like, it was percolating again. People forget.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So that's the elephant in the room? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Well, that's how you get approved by the estate, right? That's how you gotta go about things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yeah. The way that I usually handle this, because if you try to... It's like whack-a-mole. If you try to die on a certain hill morally when it comes to music, you don't even know where half of your hypocrisies are. Especially...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I mean, I guess you could say Diddy now, probably. I bet you Diddy's like, well, looking at Michael Jackson being like, he never had to deal with this. I mean, he dealt with some of this, but he never had to deal with it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yeah, but Diddy's also being accused of that, too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It's all over the place. Okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I don't request the songs. I don't play them on touch tunes. But if it's on, you know, don't stop until you get enough. I still haven't gotten enough. The wide pervy net, the worst of all the nets. Yes. Well, Brooklyn, pretty terrible. It hasn't worked out for that franchise since they moved, no doubt. But pervy net is worse than Brooklyn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
No, you don't, and I'm not here. I was just curious because the way that I govern it, I'm a huge Bowie guy. He's got some stuff. I'm a huge Prince guy. He's got some stuff. I think there is something to be said for a sheer magnitude. Like with Deshaun Watson, I was rooting on teams that had players that had some – some of that stuff surrounding them. Like Kareem Hunt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
All right, so I have a couple questions.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
When Kareem Hunt scored a touchdown, I was like, yay, go Browns. When they acquired Deshaun Watson, I was like, I'm out. That's very tough. There is a sheer magnitude to it that is just unavoidable. But the way that I go about it is, I don't think I feel like listening to Diddy today. I don't think I feel like listening to Ryan Adams today. I still listen to Bowie.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So where are my conflicts out here? And it's not a black and white issue. It's very difficult. Don't matter if you're black or white.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
but here like kanye i don't feel like you're on a kanye and i kanye was one of my favorite artists of all time why what happened with kanye i have so many yeezys in my closet and it's just like he dropped bully by the way they're so comfortable too yeezys damn i love the way that the shoe looked in joggers and i'm like i think i just got to throw them out at this point remember like he was starting like he got what size you hold on what size you
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
What size are you? Adidas school, as you know. I don't know why I'm waiting so long. I'll probably donate them, have them go to a good cause. But I can imagine someone's like, I can't do this. It's bad for my brand.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Bad for the brand. But he's cooked. He's cooked. But if I hear power, if someone's coming up to bat and they use power in the background, I'm like, interesting choice, but this will forever slap. I'll be clapping along. It's just tough. It's hard because of his mental illness and because of like how different he is now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I think it's almost easier to silo away like, oh, before he lost his mind, like the college dropout, I miss the old Connie became a meme. And people have such a relationship with some of that older music that I get why it's hard for people to disassociate their love and what they felt in that era of music.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
And you're like, oh, what do we do? His fingerprints were across, like, 25 years of hip hop, not just as a rapper, but when it comes to production, where do you draw the line? Like, I'm going to stop listening to Jay-Z now. I'm going to stop listening to Kanye Produce tracks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So the first question that I have is, were you able to avoid any spoilers?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I mean, Osama Bin Laden's attorney was like, I can't do this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I think a lot of people find that line. I think a lot of people are having such a difficult time trying to think for themselves on this one that they welcome someone doing the thinking for them. And look, the book's name in terms of sanctimony is called How to Be Perfect, where they try to work through all of these scenarios. And I didn't actually...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I've kind of pieced together, because I've heard a lot of podcasts on this, and I kind of pieced together. For me, it's just, what do I feel like listening to? There will probably be a day where I want to listen to Ryan Adams. It hasn't quite happened yet.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Summer of 69 is a banger. I was like, what did he do? I haven't seen anything about Brian Adams. Heaven, that song that he did for John 1 DeMarco.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I'm listening to music podcasts. Oh, gotcha. Also, the Ryan Adams thing, it's probably unfair to lump him in with all these other names.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Well, Ryan Adams was, first and foremost, an asshole, and then accused of grooming, and there were think pieces written on him. He used to be married to Mandy Moore, I think, and she had some not-so-nice things to say about him. Allegedly. Allegedly. Everyone kind of knew that Ryan Adams was a jerk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
In fact, there's this great book on the early 2000s rock scene called Meet Me in the Bathroom, that whole early 2000s alt-rock scene that was born out of New York. And this was before Ryan Adams got canceled. Basically, everyone, all these addicts just putting all their problems on Ryan Adams. He was the foil of the book, and I kind of felt bad for him there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It's like, okay, this is very clearly the Strokes narrative. They're not taking any ownership of their own actions anymore. Ryan Adams was like, what the hell? I just opened a door, and this guy was asking me for heroin. I guess it's my fault, too, right? So I did kind of feel bad for him, and then all the other stuff came out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
This is the most Ryan Adams talk that's ever happened on a sports podcast. Again, Summer of 69, we're good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Brian Adams. Different Adams, not related. One of them's a Canadian. Brian had to be like, oh, come on. Come on, Ryan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
We're in this together a little bit. Brian Adams has always mattered way more. Brian Adams today mattered more than Ryan Adams on his best day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
There is a huge Slater scoop. Locally, people know what that means. But this one was shocking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It's well chronicled in this show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
There's no way Roy didn't see it. I missed it. What happened? WSVN. Oh! Oh, yes. WSVN is going to become an ABC affiliate.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It was going on during SNL, and at midnight they switched, I believe. F.O.R. was... F.O.R.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yeah, and they switched places. Yep. It was a big deal. But locally in this market, the FOR, the CBS affiliate, and the NBC affiliate are O&Os, owned and operated by the network. So those will never flip unless there's a sale of some sort. So this leaves PLG in a precarious situation. You would assume that— Well, it's a situation they chose, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So what is PLG going to do? I don't know. Because right now SVN is going to be both Fox and ABC.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Locally, there's like two CWs now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
This is a huge problem when it comes to the local channels and streaming. But let me put everyone at ease. We will still have Will Manso. Oh, thank God. Actually, can someone text Will Manso? Because I have questions about what this means for us locally.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
They're going to be like Whammy on Miami. I know I'm dating myself with that, but Whammy was trying to sprout out in the network game as an independent, get all these talk shows that were available for syndication. Neil Rogers had his show simulcast on Whammy on Miami. And they actually had local sports rights, too. They had the Marlins and they had the Miami Heat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Sports sound. Jonesy. Do you remember sports sound? Absolutely. Yeah, during the NBA lockout, they had to chain up the basketball court that was behind them. I loved Whammy on Miami, Whammy Kids. That's where you got your Fox afternoon cartoons on the weekdays. What am I asking, Will? What is going to become of WPLG? What's the move here? From a programming standpoint, what's on primetime on PLG?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Dude, are they going to make a play for local sports? You probably can't say that. He's probably got some conflicts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yeah, no doubt. They would have been a player on the Panthers. But I'm just curious that the decision for WPLG, a legacy channel, a channel that matters down here, to make the decision, we're not going to be affiliated with a network anymore. And it's a pretty big network. ABC, they got a lot of big stuff. ABC, good channel. ABC, good channel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So you fast forward through commercials. Yeah, of course. But you watch everything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
ESPN's getting a Super Bowl, which will be simulcast on network ABC. That is a decision that PLG made.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So you started your morning with a 0-0.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yeah, I know that this show has national appeal. This is more locally geared. We have a local icon here, a local luminary in Jonathan Zaslow. And I'm curious what the... I am curious at what the strategy is for PLG going forward. Do they lean hyper-local? Because there's still a place. People channel surf and watch conventional networks. Dude, you put on a fishing show and somebody will watch it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I'm being told they're keeping Jeopardy. All right. Good job.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Wait a second. Can we be on PLG? Let's just lean hard local because I'm more inclined to watch PLG if they're like, hey, we ditched a network. We're here for you. I'm turning away from the news plaque.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
That third period, the goalies stood on their head.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It was great. You had the controversy with Jenner kicking in the goal. That wasn't controversial.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Look, it's always controversial when a goal gets removed off the board. But it was letter of the law, plain as day, that that was an easy call to make and the right call. But they go into the overtime with a four-on-three advantage. Huge. Which, Roy, I...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Can't do that. It's cheating too. The four on three is like the most difficult penalty to kill, right? It has to be. When you start overtime on three, I know that there's five on three penalties, but for whatever reason, if you go up a man in that five-minute overtime session, it's pretty much lights out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
There's this fascinating stat that got chucked into our hockey chat yesterday that – There are 776 fewer power plays called this season at this point in the season than last.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Well, one of the prevailing theories is that teams have gotten so good on the power play, this season in particular, that it is such an advantage that... So teams are being more careful and not taking penalties? Well, one argument could be teams are playing cleaner. But the other argument is the referees are taking note that giving a power play is... essentially gives another team a goal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So they're being judicious, more judicious when they call these things because it is such a huge advantage.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yeah, they've been calling fewer penalties. And I think the Florida Panthers, because they're reigning defending Stanley Cup champions, they're playing a lot of games that have playoff-like atmospheres. Yeah, you're getting everyone's best punch every night. And the refs, they swallow the whistle in these games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Oh my god, I popped for that. There are local Zaslow marks in this market that remember hearing that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
But if we are indeed in a new era of the NHL where the stripes are swallowing the whistle some, that benefits the Florida Panthers who are an excellent 5-on-5 team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
You know he's also third in hits all time? Yeah. He's just a remarkable player. He's a bowling ball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Well, he's about to be, at least for one of the more important aspects of the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Well, his nickname is not The Great One, but it is Alexander the Great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I had to drag it out of you. You had a morning.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Toronto within striking distance.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Thankfully, there's been a recent dip in form, but they got that one, a comeback victory against Toronto. One last Panther topic before we move on, and the reason why we're starting with Panthers is because He just watched a game this morning. I'm in a great mood.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
They're defending the Stanley Cup champions, and March Madness is March Badness. We keep trying to tell you this. It's not a good tournament. There's individual moments, but especially when the secret sauce, Tony, ain't coming through. There was secret sauce in a couple different games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Got to get a Norman Osborn hairline in there. A Jimmer for that. Yeah, Jimmer. You need the secret sauce. Roy, your thoughts? Greg Paulus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Well, it's because you're waiting for the secret sauce.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
We'll get to March Madness in a second, but I do want to... button one thing up on the Florida Panthers because I think you kind of got my ass yesterday on the Brad Marchand thing. I got that ass. You got that ass. You got it. If the people in the locker room are okay with it, I got to be okay with it too. Right. But I'm also an emotional fan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I'm not getting paid by the organization to make this work. I see his stupid face, and it conjures up all sorts of emotions, and it's going to be difficult to deprogram myself for that. He may have good moments in that redshirt. That would help. That would certainly help. But I also think he's incredibly overrated at this point in his career. I know he's a great playoff performer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I mean, at 36 years old, so good. People got to get the numbers on that team. Pasternak's got to get the numbers on that team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Florida is way more loaded than Boston and I look at what my preference is I think on merit you could argue and it's not going to be the case he didn't come here to be a third liner but I think on merit you could argue Brad Marchand talent wise at this point in his career would be a third liner it's all about fit and where you want him I do kind of want to see the Bennett Kachuk thing just laugh at everybody because people are going to hate that line but Roy are you with me on this uh no he's going to be straight up on the second line and that line is going to be uh
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I understand he's going to be on the second line.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
At this stage in his career, if you tell me in a vacuum, who would you like to see hit the ice a little bit more? Mackey or Brad Marchand? Mackey. I'd like to see Mackey more. I think he's far more effective. I think there's probably an argument to be made for Verhage, which I'm starting to regret that contract a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
It's probably not the same. We've probably seen the best of Carter Verhage. I mean, that's not a hot take, but it's certainly something I'm concerned about.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
All right. Well, let me ask you this. If you're a noted Heat fan, one of the most famous and celebrated Miami Heat fans in the nation, your face is first up on celebrity pics on ESPN.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Yep. So you are a Heat fan of repute. Let's say Alan Houston came to town and wore a Miami Heat uniform. You think he'd ever warm up to that? If Jamal Mashburn's cool with it, I'm cool with it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
First night of the tournament, though?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I always maintain... was always rooting against Kyle Lowry. Always. I did not like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die

It's the truth. That is the truth.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Yeah, right. And credit to me. I'll tell it to his face. He knows that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
How about Paul George? Who's in the Pantheon? I mean, Paul George isn't really... Charlie Ward? Charlie Ward was hitting me on multiple levels. I hated Charlie Ward so much because he cooked Miami as a quarterback at FSU.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Put it on the poll. For Miami fans, is there a special place in hell for Charlie Ward?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
I mean, it is what it is. But you also need to fight against certain allegations and confidently stand your ground.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
That's a situation where the locker room wasn't okay with the player in there. Zoe and Larry Johnson hated each other famously when they were both Charlotte Hornets.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
So if Zoe tells you you can hate on Larry Johnson all you want, you'll never find yourself getting out of your seat. I still boo Zoe.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Right Time To Die
Boo Zoe? I will never let that go. You know what he did. He knows what he did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Bengals, at the very least next year, they'll be fun. They'll have to score 50 to win every game, but they'll be fun.

GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Their whole problem last year was they couldn't protect C.J. Stroud, and then all they did was get rid of their two best linemen and sign a one-year stopgap at left tackle. So I just don't see the Texans having a good year. C.J. Stroud is going to develop the yips if he's getting hit on every play. Okay. Here's my question for brackets bonanza.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I love that about this. I love that about this. Then I'm going to the chargers at five chargers at five.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I kind of like the Broncos. I like the Broncos. And I'd probably say just because of the great unknown, probably the Steelers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I'm going to go off board a little bit. I'm going to throw it. I just want to throw it out there. I'm not saying it should be. I'm just throwing it out there. The Patriots. Wow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I mean, it's hard to say. It's hard to go against the Eagles. They lost their third de-tackle, their second de-tackle. They've still got, like, a lot of draft capital. They made some good moves. I'm going to say that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I have them borderline in. I have them as a seven. I have them as a seven.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Bears. Bears? I think I have the Packers a little high, to be honest.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
No, not at three. You still got Tampa Bay, and Baker Mayfield will always have my heart. And the Vikings are still going to be okay, I think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Can I do something real quick? Everybody's so low on the Vikings, but then everybody almost hated Sam Darnold. So now they get rid of Sam Darnold, and then we hold it against the Vikings, even though nobody thought that Sam Darnold was that great. Right? Am I wrong?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Give the Rams the six. I want the Rams in there. I'm an L.A. guy. Put the Rams in. And then I'll let Fuentes pick the NFC North team he wants. I'm telling you, the Rams, I love a Devontae Adams signing. I think you're going to see a really good year from them next year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
No, I just don't understand. Nobody likes Sam Darnold there. He wins 14 games. Then they get rid of Sam Darnold, and then we still don't like the Vikings. So they got rid of the part that nobody liked, and then this guy's supposed to be better. I don't know. It's weird. How dare you, sir?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
He is an L.A. guy. Yeah, but the Chargers offense isn't that great, but then the Bengals defense isn't that great. Yeah, it sucks. I'm going to go Chargers. Their defense is better.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Ravens. I'm going Broncos. Wow. I'm going Broncos too. Broncos it is. Baltimore in the playoffs, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You hated that I got the Patriots in there, didn't you, Fuentes? You hated that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
guy. Big Rams. Big on the Rams. Let's go. Big on the Bucs. Big on the Bucs. You know what? I was surprised, Mikey, now that you said that. I'm surprised they re-signed Godwin. I thought he was for sure done there after the injuries and how much he was going to cost. I'm surprised that they brought him back. He's a great player. Don't get me wrong.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I just didn't think they were going to, yeah, like the money-wise and stuff like that. So it's on you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
It's funny how you say he can have a Baker game, and yet that goes both ways.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah, they're the higher seed, yeah. Give me the commanders.

I don't trust Herbert. Do it. No, I don't trust Herbert.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah. I mean, the only person he can't beat is Mahomes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Let's just say you trust the Bills. I'm going to take Josh. He just sold it for me. I'm going to take Josh Allen over Justin Herbert every time. So there you go. Yeah, I went Bills too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I tried. I tried. You were very enthusiastic. Number six Broncos against the number two Chiefs. Number two Chiefs. The Chiefs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I know, but I can't go Josh Allen over Justin Herbert and then be like, oh, yeah, Bo Nix over Mahomes. That makes sense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I'm going to go the upset again. I'm going to go the upset again.

GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Super Bowl, Super Bowl, like too many playoff games for too long. Bears need it. They got a change of everything. They got a brand new offense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah. They can stop the tush push. Yes, and I'm going to say Stugatz was right, but one year late, and the Bears are going to the big game. Nice! The Jets make it? Yes. Bears. Okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Go ahead, Fuentes. I'll give you the first shot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Okay, I'm going to say the Bears because the ultimate conflict, Bear Down Billy versus Chiefs Kingdom Billy in the Super Bowl.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Exactly what you do to Stu Gods every week. Making him be the deciding vote.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I might pick completely different teams next week just because I was kind of shooting from the hip. Maybe next week I think it out a little bit, and I'm like, oh, you know what? I do like this matchup better.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Billy, are we going to go out in Nashville? Are we going to go line dancing or something? Are we going to go get crazy?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
There are honky-tonks. There are good honky-tonks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I very much like Nashville. Keep it on the down low. We don't want too many people hanging out. That's a good point. We're going to go get some Hattie B's Nashville hot chicken. Okay. We're going to do some of that. A little honky tonk. Walk down Broadway. Maybe buy myself a ridiculously expensive cowboy hat or a pair of cowboy boots. Maybe both. Who knows?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I was going to say, maybe we could expense a nice hat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Question though, Billy. Yeah. Who's this segment brought to us by?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah, this is the best time of the NFL. Some people say it's opening weekend. Some people say it's the playoffs or the draft. Nope, it's rule proposal time. That's the best time of the NFL season or offseason. So with that in mind, there is a proposal made by the Green Bay Packers right now to essentially ban the tush push. Billy Gill, will it pass?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Fuentes? I agree. I think the year where you propose getting rid of it is the year that the team that does it the best wins the Super Bowl. It's probably not the best way to go about it because now it just sounds like you're crying over spilled milk. Sour grapes? Yeah, sour grapes. So probably not the best time, but like Billy said –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
If they didn't do it the year before or the year before that, they're probably not going to do it this year either. Is it boring? Do I not like it? Yeah, I don't like it at all. I think it is boring. I think it kills the flow of the game, but at the same time, It's football, and it's guys running into each other, and they do it really well, and they're just going to take advantage of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
And there's also going to be a moment in time where they may not be as good at it. So I just don't see it going anywhere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Like, what happened here now? It keeps offenses on the field. It puts more points up. I think everybody hates it, but they will never get rid of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Okay, the next one is proposed by the Detroit Lions, and you can see why they would propose this after last year, where essentially they would do new seating system for the playoffs, and everybody would be seated based on their record, not whether they won the division or not. Now, the division winners would still get in. However, once you're in, you're seated based solely on your record.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Fuentes, will it pass? No, I think the NFL wants divisions to mean something. So if they don't get the home playoff game, then you totally strip that away because then really who cares? You just got to get a good record. I mean, no, I don't think it passes. They've been doing it this way for a long time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
And yes, it does suck when you get a 7-9 Seattle team hosting a 12-win New Orleans team, which as we all know is the beast mode run. But yeah, I just don't see it passing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Another proposal by the Eagles. Essentially marrying the playoff overtime rules with the regular season overtime rules so that both teams will get a possession in overtime, regardless of if it's in the playoffs or in the regular season. Mike Fuentes. Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Will it pass? This one should pass, but I don't know if it will. I can't really think of a reasoning. I mean, why not?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
It's making players play more football. But as we know, the Players Association isn't going to like that. So, I don't know. I'm going to say... They always get what they want? Also true. But I just... I would like it. Obviously, like you said, it's more football for us. I mean, they already got the two extra games during the season, so... you know what, I've been so negative, it will pass.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
One more quick one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because this one's funny for me because the Pittsburgh Steelers are the one proposing this. The Pittsburgh Steelers are proposing a resolution that allows teams to have some contact with pending free agents in that legal tampering window. Right now, they're only allowed to talk to their agents.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
But I imagine after this year, the Steelers would have liked to have known a certain player's intentions prior to making the moves that they did. So my question for you, Billy Gill, is will it pass?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Fuentes, will it pass? Be quick now. Yeah, I'm going to say yes. I'm going to say yes because it's so true what Billy says. Like, yeah, because we all know negotiations with lawyers and contracts, you just sit down at a table and 10 minutes later it's done. So, yeah, it's going to pass.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
All right, guys, join us next year or never for another edition of Will It Pass? Wow, Will It Pass? Coming up next.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
This is easy for me. Number one was easily Bracket's Bonanza. Yes. Yeah, that was number one. Number two, I think, is a solid Will It Pass?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
And then here's a headline, is probably third. Not because it was bad, just because it didn't have any pizzazz.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Uh, no, because I can't say that I really like brackets Bonanza. I just wish it would have been extended because then we would have had the chance for like a really big upset. Like would have had like the rate. Oh, so you want bills? You want, yeah, you want the full correct.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I don't hate this. I don't hate this for next week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yes, I want to see if the 5 and 12 Panthers can somehow find a way to take down the 11 and 6 Packers. Can they? I don't see it. Can they find the will? Can they get hot? One game scenario.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
In fact, yes, we'll actually have to put some thought into it. Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
It sounds like everybody is learning what the Aaron Rodgers at the end of his Green Bay tenure was like, which is a whole lot of wishy-washy. It's a whole lot of maybe, I don't know. We didn't get this. As bad as the play was on the field, we didn't get this with the Jets. He was always in. He was always all in. And...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
All right, let's start with some breaking news from, I guess it would be yesterday if you're listening to this on Friday. More likely to be a better investment, the $6.05 billion that the new owners paid for the Washington Commanders or the $6.1 billion that was just paid to buy the Celtics. Better investment, a middle-of-the-road football team or the best NBA team? Relatively speaking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah, I'm going to agree with Billy, mainly because the Commanders are like a historic NFL franchise. They have a lot of like the Gibbs era, all that stuff, very long tradition with the Commanders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
So even like maybe I would say there'd be a little bit of an argument if it was like the Jacksonville Jaguars or like a lower tier franchise of the NFL because obviously the Boston Celtics are one of two premier franchises of the NBA. But just the way football is just a juggernaut in this country when it comes to sports entertainment, I'm going to say the Commanders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
All right. Put you on the spot. How many NFL teams would you put the Celtics as more valuable then?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Oh, wow. That's a good question. I'll give you the Los Angeles Chargers. Even though it's LA? Even though it's that market? That's the only...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
like saving grace because the san diego chargers were you know not a great looking franchise for a long time then i'd say the jackson jaguars i'd probably say tennessee titans um let's see uh panthers uh the carolina panthers yes um i wouldn't say the browns just because they've been around forever um let me see who else here panthers and maybe the falcons Broncos?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
No, Broncos have a big tradition. That's it. That's it, really. So maybe four or five. Really? Yeah. Hmm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
All right. Interesting. Here's another interesting one for you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Did you say the Cardinals? No, I didn't, but I'd probably throw them in there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah, we got to do that again. All right. More Mike Lee to be the position taken first in the NFL draft out of these positions. Wide receiver, tight end, running back. This is shocking to me because I think there's an obvious. Oh, you have like extra actual data or just your opinion? No, I just, who do you think this year is more likely to be taken first in this draft class in this draft?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
This is probably just as frustrating because if you're a Steelers fan right now, what are your other options? You burn the bridge with Russell Wilson. There is no other quarterback that can possibly... Possibly make you a decent contender right now. It's not me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Because every other year you'd say it's an, it's, it's an easy one. It's this, it's this position, but this year I think it's the, the one that you would take last.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah, it's either Austin Gentry or Warren, right? Ashton. Yeah, Ashton. So it's those two guys. Those are the two ones because I can't think of a wide receiver that's great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
McMillan is the best wide – now, here's the other question. Do you count Travis Hunter as a wide receiver? Ah, you're cheating. Oh. I don't think so. I think he's a corner. I'm going to say Warren. I'm going to go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
staying with the draft more Mike Lee to be an NFL bust Shador Sanders or KM Ward man this is okay we don't know where they go yet so the answer if they both fail
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I'm going to do this analysis assuming that they both get drafted by the Titans. So that way they're in the same situation because the Titan situation is really bad. Can we all agree on that? So it just by the way, you know, it's, it's, it's, you know, it's in the numbers. If Shador goes after cam, he's going to be on a better team, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Well, listen, Jameis Winston with DK Metcalf and George Pickens might be the – like I would watch Hard Knocks every episode if they just followed them around. Like all I want is that. So if you're a Steelers fan, I don't know what your other option is but to sit around and wait for Aaron Rodgers to decide whether or not he wants to come.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Not loads better, but it should be a better team because they're drafting later. Um, in terms of personality, I think Billy's kind of hitting it on the head. There's people that out there that are, that want Shador Sanders to fail more just because of who his dad is and all the hype in Colorado and all that stuff, which is unfair. Um,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
But who I think is going to be more likely to be a bust is probably going to be Shador, I would say. But I don't know. The Titans are so bad. I don't know if Cam can really flourish there. I think they're both kind of in a losing proposition.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Interesting follow-up. Who was a bigger bust, Jameis Winston or Marcus Mariota? They were taking one-two. I feel like we could be looking at a very similar situation eight, ten years from now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I would say Mariota was a bigger bust, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
But drive for your life tomorrow, you'd rather have Jameis than Marcus Mariota, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Yeah, if I need a drive from one of them, I'd much rather put Jameis in there than Marcus Mariota. Even though Marcus Mariota's been solid, he's only been solid as a backup. You could consider Jameis a very low-tier starter, but you still consider him a starter more than Mariota is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
More Mike Lee to make the playoffs in their first season as head coach with their new team. Mike Vrabel with the Patriots or Liam Cohen with the Jaguars?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I'm going to say, what's the other guy's name? Cohen? Liam Cohen. Yeah, Liam Cohen, just because it's a lot easier to win the AFC South than the AFC East.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I mean, you do because you don't have another option. Yeah. Your other option is Mason Rudolph. And like, you know, thanks, but I'd rather just wait this out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I do. There is a certain quarterback who is flying up draft boards right now. Mel Kiper has Jackson Dart out of Ole Miss going 12th to the Saints. This is the highest I've seen him picked. And... I think it's absolutely bonkers for Mel to even consider the Saints taking a quarterback right now, let alone Jackson Dart, who might not be a second-round pick talent-wise.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
It was so much better. I'm ready to go now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
But they are committed next year to Derek Carr for a $69 million cap hit. You cannot be drafting your quarterback of the future with that price tag waiting for next year. You can't do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
There's no point in paying and there's no getting out of the Derek Carr because what you kept doing was you kept pushing the cap it and pushing the cap it until eventually it's all going to come to a head next year with $69 million. And I just don't see how you can take a quarterback and do anything other than bench him for two years. Then why take it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Stugatz stuff. That's okay. It's okay to fake it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Why not wait till next year and see what else you can get?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
So I think when they drafted Michael Penix, they knew that going into this draft class, it was not going to be a very good draft class. So they wanted to make sure while they had an opportunity to get a guy, they could. They were also a little worried about Michael Penix's medicals. He had a lot of injuries in college, so they wanted him to sit and to – and to learn a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
At the end of 2026, the Falcons can get out of the Kirk Cousins business for $45 million. I realize that's still a big hit, but it's not almost $70 million. Like $70 million is an entire defensive line if you play your cards right. So I think it's a little bit, they're a little similar, but the Falcons thought they were going to need Kirk Cousins longer than they do.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I don't see how the Giants pass on a quarterback. The question becomes, do the Giants move up to one for Cam Ward? I mean, I'm sure there's still some questions in Tennessee if they're going to take the quarterback. They could take Abdul Carter or Travis Hunter and run it back one year with Will Levis, but I don't see how Shador goes past the Giants, especially if Cam Ward goes number one overall.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I don't I mean, I don't see it. I don't see Will Levis having this redemption tour because I just don't think he's that good. I think he he can't get out of his own way. I think Will Levis is much more likely to go the Jameis Winston tour where it's like he's going to come. He's going to go back somebody up. He's going to come in. He could be like, oh, yeah, that guy. He's so good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
Make no mistake about it. The number one quarterback I wanted for the New York Jets going into this offseason was Jameis Winston. That was who I wanted because I figured if we're going to be bad, we might as well be entertaining. And Jameis has got all the talent in the world. He just has to get out of his own way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
I just said football because you said football. Okay, good. By the way –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Bracket Bonanza
And they're going to trade their one player on defense that was worth anything because they paid their wide receivers and their quarterback all of the money. All of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You're excited about this. You have been since I saw the light bulb pop on just before we started recording, and you're like, I have an idea.

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Network clocks. Yeah. Spots. So much nonverbal communication on our show. Yeah. And I don't have the ability to nonverbally communicate in a timely fashion. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I am so sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I am very sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Oh, whoa. I had nothing to do with that. I just wanted you guys to feel bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I'm very sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Yes, I know. What, my mom? Yeah, we had nothing to do with that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
God bless Zoom because initially it was Skype and nobody knew how to work that damn thing. Oh my gosh. Every legacy media personality struggling to get on the show with us. We had one engineer over at Bristol. We had initially no way of getting the shipping container involved.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And then we discovered Zoom and the way to get the shipping container, which was hugely important to Dan because our audience wanted to hear from Billy, Chris, Roy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And so did Dan. Dan needed the outlet, too. He needed the fountains of content. Mm-hmm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
and the only way that we can get them on the air because we only had so many ip devices at espn radio they weren't going to justify sending chris cody billy and roy an ip device so the only way that we could do this was through the teleconference app and there was no way or at least espn hadn't figured out a way to patch that through the board certainly not without a delay so what we would do is we would have a central zoom hub that would be on my laptop dan could finally see you guys and try to get the timing down but if he wanted to talk to members of the shipping container i would take my headphones off all
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I remember. And I would put the microphone to my MacBook speaker. And that is how we got the voices of the shipping container involved. I couldn't hear the show at this point when it was like, I couldn't hear what was going on. If Bristol was trying to talk to me, my headphones were very dangerous for us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Yeah. That's how we did it for a good month and a half.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Stugatz. There's plenty of fun. Stugatz. Oh, I enjoyed it. You never watched WrestleMania 10. I had a blast. I'm telling you. I mean. You didn't have to commute. I know. I was living my dream. And I had no traffic when I was commuting. I was working out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
You are all those things, actually. And I think most of all, you're uninformed because there are only so many of those devices at ESPN Radio. And guess what? Every radio show in America and across the globe is trying to get their hands on those devices, which leads to a shortage. Right. So they're expensive. They're hugely expensive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And I could see like the request for, hey, can the shipping container each get one of these individual IP units being met with? Are you fucking kidding me? Right. We need our host on. I can't get one for Scott Van Pelt right now because there's a two month waiting period to get one of these things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
How dare you?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
all frustrated i don't think we were really fully comprehending supply chain issues really yeah we were asking people like you want another microphone why not a narwhal like why don't you ask me for an endangered species because that's essentially what's going on there and i wouldn't expect you to know it. I certainly understand the frustration.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Hell, you were probably frustrated not because of a microphone, but because of how you were feeling over at ESPN. I would say that our general friction with ESPN management had subsided because they were grateful that we were doing this stuff. You are asked to take a pay cut and I want to ask you about that. But let me talk to you about the solution that I workshopped with Chris Winningham.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And this is something that we've never really reviewed. I was doing Chelsea Mic'd Up with Chris Whittingham. Chris Whittingham was an intern of ours. When I got hired by Chelsea to do content, they asked me, what do you need to put out a show for us? I need Chris Whittingham. And Chris Whittingham and I were recording Chelsea Mic'd Up at the time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
That's another reason why Valerie wanted me out of the apartment, because I'd go from doing his show, Highly Questionable.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And I was doing Chelsea Mic'd Up. Poor Valerie. I was doing it there. But we had workshopped. I remember the conversation came up. He's like, you know, Mike, I've been thinking about the issues that you're running into. Credit to Chris Whittingham.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
He's like, I think if we use one of the mic ports for not a microphone and we plug it into the computer, we can get the sounds from the computer into the mic port. And you could essentially have all the zooms go through as if they were on the microphone through the IP unit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
now ideally this would all be fed to espn but espn didn't know anything about even zoom at this time and i would be flying blind talking to someone else and trusting them with timing fade up fade down it would be a disaster so i wanted to be in control so we rigged our ip device to the computer chris whittingham came over in gloves and masks and rigged the ip unit and it worked it worked and that's how we got crystal clear audio
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Zoom audio from the shipping container was our workshopping working through Chelsea Mike Dub. Our crazy idea worked. And so that's how we fixed the headphone thing, which was a big thing. Around this time, what turned out to be, is this going to be a couple of weeks? Is this going to be a month? Turns into several months. ESPN makes the ask of its talents, their higher paid talents.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Hey, can you volunteer a portion of your salary? Give us a little bit of a break here. Maybe we can take care of some other people. You had a very unique request that didn't fly over well with some folks at ESPN.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
But again, dating back to the supply chain issues, you not knowing the nature of your questions causing any friction, you make a genuine human ask about where your salary could go to and how is that met?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Took the pay cut, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
We're done. I had several months to tell him, Dan, I think we're kind of done. I didn't want to believe it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Yes. That part. Yes. That part, again, with the supply chain issues and Dan not knowing if his questions are dumb or whatever, or if his requests are dumb, like ESPN legally- had no way to do this. As part of a publicly traded company, they can't actually circumvent that. Like if you wanted to do that out of your pocket, they could look the other way and not know about it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And again- They didn't work for ESPN.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
We actually eventually got to chemistry and I'm really proud technologically of things that we essentially invented. Dan just said we had a bunch of people on zoom. No, at the beginning of this, Zoom wasn't a thing. Having people just pop up on a Zoom wasn't commonplace. We had to rig things and invent stuff. I'm really proud of the shows that we put out during this era.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Well, yeah, it becomes knowledge amongst everybody at ESPN, the people that are doing this, and that's how they get you to do this. There were a couple of talents that pushed back on it and were a little worried, like, do I ever get it back? No way of knowing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And your bosses, everyone is so thankful for their job at this point. We don't know what the world is going to look like. You're afraid to tell your bosses no. So it's implied that you should do this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And I think you were right, too. They hadn't considered the camera people because they weren't on their books. So what you did was a very humane thing in that what about all these people? Like, there's no furlough for them. Like, what pot of money do they have? How do they make their livelihoods?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
The simulcast of our show at this point has some static images because we don't have cameras, but also Lebo starts coming over to the apartment and sketching live shows so that our visual presentation can have some kind of supplement. So good. We were trying to push, like, how can we still be creative as the ground rules change? And I'm really proud of that. And then something funny happens.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
The first couple of weeks, month, it was about survival. The second month was like, how do we make this feel better for us? The third month of it was how can we really push this? How can we use COVID as a benefit? How can we use the fact that we're disembodied voices with no real live video to our advantage? And also there's a whole bunch of creative people that have their projects on pause.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
How can we use some of the smartest minds in Hollywood to work for us? Maybe they just want the creative outlet. Dan starts getting close with Adam McKay and all these other creatives in Hollywood that are dying for some sort of creative outlet. And we start doing these bits that I'm really proud of that we didn't present to the audience as bits. We were trying to fool them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Phil Hendry style, which in the first couple episodes, I told you. probably had more influence because of how much Hawk loved him over our show than any other show that was out there. This was very Phil Hendry-esque. How did we get to making bits? How are you on the phone with Jonah Hill and John C. Reilly?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
There are huge names in comedy and improvisational comedy that are coming through just playing characters. We never reveal their identity. This is all really cool stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Now, granted, it took us a little bit of time. It took everybody time. The audience reception to what we were doing, they were just so grateful to have anything, especially something regular and consistent that people might look back on this. I'm sure a decent chunk of our audience would say, that was my favorite era of the show just because of how much our show meant to them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
It was on his website for a long time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is a time with your brother where some behavior is a little erratic and we're all a little confused as to why some of this stuff is happening and no one really knows what ultimately is the root cause of all this, which is the sickness. That is also happening as the world stops, everyone's lives change, work becomes a bit of an escape for you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
The audience, and not only Stu Gatz, really knows how much you personally are under at this point. I had no idea. Because work is not going great, too. All these things are meeting at a head. And it's also like the mental health crisis of our time. I didn't know that your brother was going through stuff at the moment.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Like, it was hard. But I didn't know because Dan didn't correct me if I'm wrong. He didn't tell me. You didn't really know what was going on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
One of the things that I remember from this time, and not fully knowing that you were going through that, the ways that our fans talk about our show being there for them during this time. We were all impacted by this. Yes. You lost your mom to COVID. I lost my grandfather, who I lived with for several years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Yeah, that time was really challenging personally, professionally.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
That's healthy. And it had to be really confusing for the rest of the shipping container who already had a reduced role because of the construct, but they don't know what's living inside anybody's head. We're all pretty divided. We're doing our best to talk and laugh with one another. We're glad that we're all there for one another, but it's different. It's really different.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Another thing that happens during this time is George Floyd happens and there are riots and ESPN didn't get on our asses about how we could talk about this. There were no sports ties. There were no sports. They let people speak freely on this. We did some good stuff there. We had some really good guests. I'm really proud of the stuff that I did with David Sampson there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I grew as a talent as a producer. I really loved some of the challenges that this presented. In terms of my skill, this is about as sharp as I've ever been as a live producer. Multimedia. I was learning all sorts of things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I know it was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Yeah. I stayed home during lockdown. There was like a work holiday where the show just had it off. And I was at home for one day and I was so stir crazy. Keep in mind, I'm still going through my mental stuff. I'm coming out of it. I have my daughter. I have to be. And like anybody, I feel like the wall's closing in on me. I was at home one day and I told my wife, we're moving.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Like I went nuts for one day. So I needed having that show daily for me and my mental as I was coming out of really, truly the darkest chapter in my life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
We all had friends that didn't have that blessing. We all had friends that had got laid off or worse, friends that had passed away. Friends of friends, parents of friends. There were a lot of things that put life in perspective. Dan spoke to it some there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
There was so much serious shit out there that I do have immense regret for yelling at you when Finney went and shut up because it wasn't all that important.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Apologize to Finney, not me. Finney bit me. I visited you during one of those days, and you've never apologized to me for Finney biting me. Revenge game. I mean.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
It could have sued you. And you pretended like it didn't happen. You were just gaslighting me the rest of the time. I'm there introducing you to my daughter for the first time. That was nice. Your fucking dog bit me. Yeah. Hard.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Broke the skin. Right.

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
You can apologize. I'll apologize to you. What are you doing? Look at me. I'll apologize to you. I'm going to look at you. But I will never apologize to that fucking dog. Oh, really? Yeah. He bit me. He bit me. We established that.

Howdy, folks. It's Mike Ryan. I talk to you about Miller Time all the time, but we're in the wintertime right now, and one of my favorite pastimes is to crack open a Miller Lite and enjoy myself some Miller Time during the wintertime because when there's a brisk chill in the air, it just makes everything right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
My friends and I who live down here in South Florida can actually sit outside because it's not super muggy. We can thoroughly enjoy our Miller Time together. And for you listening, I know there's a lot of things going on right now. Sports news. Chief among them. Nothing more important than sports.

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
That was impossible. But the show was better than anything else that was out there. And I think that meant a lot at the time. So let's take it to the beginning of lockdown for us because Gobert, Tom Hanks, that all happens. And I think we essentially have a week, especially down here in South Florida. The world really ended for us down here when Flanagan's closed. That's how you know. I remember...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
You and I have a pretty interesting dynamic. You have your side of things with how the Marlins went down, and I speak for the fans, and I have a really good knowledge of what happened there, and I like to think that I can call you on BS. But when it comes to the Montreal Expos, I'm outgunned in that department. I can't speak for the Expos fans because I don't know enough.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
So I brought in the number one Montreal Expos fan that I know and certainly known the world over as the prime Expos fan. I bring in Ariel Hawane. The overall sentiment of Ariel and most Expos fans were that you and Jeffrey were not at all serious about keeping Montreal a baseball town.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
David contends that Major League Baseball wasn't serious about keeping Montreal, really, and Montreal wasn't serious about keeping the Expos due to his negotiations with the regional sports networks. David, could you articulate a little bit more as to what you ran in on? Because I imagine you and Jeffrey...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
bought this team with hopes of turning Montreal into a World Series champion because that was a conversation that you had in the locker room and Vladimir Guerrero didn't understand a word that you were saying. How quickly did you run into the notion that maybe they don't want us here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
It felt like at any time they would have a lockdown for us. Corporate mandate from ESPN. And I had no idea what that would look like. None. Zero. No one talked to me. I remember that weekend. I was like, this might be my last weekend for a couple of weeks, months. No one knows exactly what would end up happening.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I went out on a boat because I was like, this might be my last opportunity to go on a boat. Let me soak up the sun as long as I'm allowed to. And I get a call from Amanda Gifford, one of our bosses over at ESPN while I'm on the boat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Doing a great job, by the way, with ESPN's college football. Yeah. We knew that she was a superstar and she ascended quite rapidly over at ESPN. She's great. She called me and said, hey. We're going to be broadcasting outside the Cleveland or in people's homes. Your show is also doing that. I'm like, you're joking, right? Like, who's going to engineer Dan? Dan doesn't know how to engineer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And I was alerted to the fact that TJ Warren is playing Jimmy Butler twice in one week. Thanks to Rachel Nichols, who hosts the jump, which is a national show. This all the hostility coming to a head twice in one week. This is a major plot line. If you're not invested in the regular season component of this NBA bubble, I just gotcha.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Like, how is this going to work? He said, we have a couple of remote units, these IP devices. Sugato already has one in his home because of the weekend shows that you were doing over at ESPN, which got a lot of fanfare. Yeah, and stupidity. And I actually got Amber Wilson's. I had to have Chris Cody pick it up from her house and Chris Cody dropped it off at the Clevelander.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I literally get dropped off by a boat onto like one of these neighboring islands. And I get an Uber and I go to the Clevelander to pick this up. And it looks like apocalyptic. Not in that it's empty. Quite the opposite. Everyone's on South Beach, super spreading their life away because this is the last opportunity to party. I'm like, wait a second.

The unsafest place on the planet right now. I'm like, look, this simply isn't going to work. Amanda at all. Dan doing this by himself. You're not going to have a show. You're not. Sue can figure it out. Dan's not going to know how to engineer this stuff. I have to learn some of this stuff. There's no way I can teach Dan remotely. I need to be with Dan. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
She says, fine, you can go, but only you. I'm like, what does this mean for the shipping container? We haven't figured that out yet. I'm like, okay. But we have Dan, we have Stu. Don't have the shipping container. We have me. Cool. What am I to do with this device? Well, Dan's going to be working from home.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
That's where I started. And I didn't have the opportunity to really test this. I got to Dan's apartment, his condo in the beach. Man, this is eerie. I can smell it. Like there's so many things about that. They're just so vivid.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
The smell of your apartment. I can certainly smell the apartment that we later ended up going to because South Beach was empty and in your building there was another apartment that was a bachelorette pad.

There were like little dicks everywhere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
It didn't smell good. It didn't smell bad. Basically, it was a kitchen without a garbage disposal. So there was like months old food that had caked into the sink that I was smelling. It smelled like home. A weird, distorted home. But the first couple of shows, I get to Dan's apartment. Dan's in his shorts. Dan, Valerie, hey, what's up?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
No, but this is where we're going to have to do the show for now until Dan finds a better place. Or in our minds, a couple of weeks when life gets back to normal, because that's what everybody thought. We never knew that we were going to be doing this remotely as long as we did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12

Dan's home was the studio. Sure. And I was there as producer engineer. So Valerie did not feel any kind of relaxation at home. And also it's lockdown. Not very many places where she could go. So I understood why we had to get a different place. But the first couple of shows that we did, I remember being very bad, very bad.

and we had all sorts of sports news to help us along the way god bless roger goodell they didn't pause free agency at all we had tom brady going to the bucks we had sports things to talk about and our show was so sportsy the first couple of weeks because we were such a relationship-based show a comedic show and the biggest thing that our comedy needed was timing we had zero timing we had zero line of sight

Oh, but Stugatz. Stugatz. Dan would pose a question to you. There would be six seconds of silence. I understand. And we'd be like, oh, we lost Stugatz. That would happen multiple times a show. Like, yeah, it would drive you crazy. The lack of control. You know I'm a control freak. I know. The lack of control in it. Stugatz is right, though.

Oh, enough of you and Finney. Newborn, too. Christ. Newborn, too. Still scarred from it. At this time. Then he is. I forgot about the HQ aspect of it all. I would often say well after the show because I had to set up for HQ. Ride Home didn't have to. I was just doing it to help Dan because there was no show. There was no economy without getting Dan set up there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Miller Brewing Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 96 calories and 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces. Roy, you know that moment when you're out watching puck and the server comes over and asks the table, what can I get you guys? And everyone freezes up. You know what you should do? What should I do, Mike? You've got to have some confidence. Or as Jagermeister calls it, shotfidence. I love it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
If everyone's struggling, take control. Just order for the whole table. A round of ice cold Jagermeister shots. Damn, that's cold. Because apparently, we've all been drinking Jägermeister wrong. Well, how should we be drinking it? We should be drinking it ice cold. At zero degrees Fahrenheit. Roy, like Jägermeister, what else is infinitely better ice cold? The sport of hockey, Mike.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It's in the name. It's ice hockey. Ice hockey. Yes. Regular hockey, not as great. Not floor hockey. Ice hockey, real good. Damn right. Wherever you are, if you're hanging with friends or at the bar, call the shots. Cheers with ice cold shots of Jagermeister.

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here?

I care more about Matthew Kachuk than I do my daughter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Zach Martin retired yesterday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
He's just 34 years old. I guess we're not really allowed to be shocked by retirements in the NFL all that much. Aaron Donald retired, although we had been able to brace for Aaron Donald because there was that chatter there. Zach Martin really shocked me. Jess, he's a Notre Dame legend.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Notre Dame legend. Yeah, definitely a Notre Dame legend. And I know he's gone through some injury, but this surprised me. Should I have been surprised?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, I guess I'm not allowed to be surprised anymore. when someone retires, especially someone that has made their money. And that gets me to Dalton Connect, who I want to talk about, because there were actually developments on this story, Jeremy. It would seem that the trade, like everyone's pointing their fingers at the Lakers right now for this Dalton Connect failed trade.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I've got bad news for you. The percentage, which had been at like an all-time high, 3.2, I guess not all-time high, but NASA really wasn't around for the time of the dinosaurs. If that's what happened. NASA has just announced new data gathered last night dropped the December 2032 impact odds of the asteroid to 0.28%. What?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Update the people, and then I want to talk about how people are psychoanalyzing Dalton Connect, which is a little unfair.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Well, that changes the narrative quite a bit because the onus was falling on the Hornets. You played this guy to increase his trade value was the narrative that was going along there. But I want to focus on the Dalton connecting. And you said something interesting. I agree. J.J. Redick should have done a better job here. He's still learning. This is a teachable moment.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It would have only bought so much time because, remember, Dalton Connect, maybe because of the actions of J.J. Redick and how he exacerbated some of this stuff. He sat out some of the Rising Stars stuff, the All-Star Weekend stuff. And at that point, you don't have your coach there to protect you. You're going to have to start answering some questions there. I have a tough time with this one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
And I understand where people are coming from, like, You know, this is a business. You know what you're getting into. You've been grooming for this moment your entire life. You get to the league. You understand the association is a business. It didn't work out. You go back to a place that you don't feel wanted.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I do actually think that this newest revelation does make it easier for the Lakers to welcome Dalton Connect back in that, look, we failed them. We shouldn't have. That's because we knew how special you were, Dalton. Man, that's a hell of a spin.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Man, we had immediate regret. So, look, it's clandestine that you are coming back. Dalton Connect. I'm willing to... I don't think I've ever seen a situation quite like this before, so I understand there's no playbook for it. I also... The way that I've been kind of processing it before... I don't have a take on this. Where I've settled is he hasn't made his money yet.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So the spoiled athlete trope that you hear, like, go out there and understand the business, like, he hasn't made his money in this league yet. So I don't think that's necessarily... We're dealing with a very human thing. I think...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Because it's framed in sports, everyone feels like they can disassociate how awkward that must be as someone that has previously walked into a building where he knew with full certainty that he wasn't necessarily welcome there or wanted there at that time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I understand how difficult it is to go about your job and to try to maintain a level of professionalism that then again, you are contracted to actually play. I don't know how much he's participating in some of the other stuff, though. I'm sure there will be a big investigative piece on it, and hopefully it comes out on the other side. But I'm willing to not rush to judgment here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
But I do hear a lazy trope on social media when it comes to spoiled athletes, and I don't think that applies here. He's not this multimillionaire.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I've been told that Tony has a hot take that's too hot for this room. So, Tony, we prepared a place where you can formulate this hot take and unleash it on the future. It better not be with Arb Riles. It's not. But we are sending you away to a sauna, I believe. Oh, I love the sauna. So you can deliver this take.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It better be. And it better be focused on the NBA because as I've already said.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
All right. Well, let's get over there. I want to inject the storylines now in the NBA because, as I've stated, sports in shambles. Just lost the face of the league. Has a terrible all-star game. Miami Heat are crap.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
No doubt. And I will readily admit this. It's awfully convenient for me to say the NBA is in shambles when my team is no good. I know. Yes, I'll wear it. My investment in this league was my team being good as the sport itself got less appealing to watch for me. And when the team started going about the regular season a certain way, I responded in kind. And then...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It was very disheartening to know that I knew better about the direction of the franchise than the franchise did. And so that's where I'm at. And then I start seeing all the other flaws. If I'm not invested to watch my own team, I'm certainly not invested to watch other people not care about their sport. So that's where I'm at with it. And hopefully, there's peaks and valleys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Baseball kind of figured something out. I watched that World Series. Granted, it was New York versus LA. But look, Yankees, we got on groomed beards now. They Still can't believe that. We did stuff to the shift. The games are moving faster. And the NFL, a couple years ago, was at the same point. The sport wasn't as watchable. They had to change the rules. You had the Kaepernick stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
And also, I had read that it was too late to do anything about, which I was like, I saw Armageddon. You got plenty of time. Maybe not enough time to turn astronauts into drillers, but you certainly have enough time to turn drillers into astronauts, as Michael Bay taught us. But...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
There was politics. Everybody was just exhausted. You had people saying the UFC is going to be bigger than the NFL. The NBA is going to be bigger than the NFL. The NFL kind of figured all that stuff out. So I think that the NBA is at one of those points where they need to bring it in tight. do what's best for business, and change something.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
But I'm a little distracted by what I'm seeing right now because I wasn't fully prepared. I was not fully prepared for how this was going to go down for Tony's hot take. So, all right, that is a bit of a shock. Hey, good for Mally. Yeah. Now, Mally, sleeper. We're not showing it yet. We're waiting. He was right. They're still previewing the shots. They don't reveal it yet, guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Mally's a sleeper, but I... Oh, man, the cockles of my heart are warmed right now as I'm watching first take and Stephen A. Smith have to formulate hockey opinions. This is great. This is actually a great proving ground for him as he's going to have to, you know, one day possibly talk about the Balkans.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, which is why they're dragging out PK.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
The first one couldn't have sounded more condescending. Well said. I think everyone understands your position. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Nonetheless. Or people like me that just, once they realized, oh, you're going to charge me what for that? No, thanks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
as this story turns because every day we're going to have huge swings on whether or not nasa's lost all credibility with me because i could wake up tomorrow and you could tell me it goes up to six percent all right cool it's been that kind of thing the entire stock market like what's up oh it's up to six percent oh no what are we gonna do no it's back down to zero percent okay just not now we got enough going on and i'm not look this is not a can that you want to kick down the road
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
MLS went through this change as well, and I don't think it was a good change.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
That's what's interesting. I don't know how Sporting Kansas City is eligible for the CONCACAF Champions Cup. And that's not a thing that happened to me before when these games were more accessible. Now, I couldn't really follow most of the league because the way that they stacked their games was a lot in the same window. But I was locked in on what Inter-Miami were doing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Now I'm kind of just living my life once I got priced out of those season tickets. And I mean, I got to tell you, there is an accessibility factor.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Well, I thought it was going to be the NBA globally.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, well, I mean, if we look globally, the NFL isn't even first. It's soccer. Of course, we're talking in the United States. Which is so strange that soccer can't make a dent. here despite loads of investment. But the NBA, because of its global reach, because of the fact that its best players are international, you would think that that is in a really good spot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
But here in home base where the sport was invented, it's at a troubling time right now in its history. But I think Tony is here to rescue the sport somehow by pushing a topic that can be talked about on cable television and promote big games. So Tony, we now have you in the sauna. Hey, Mally, congratulations, pal. That's a good job by you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
You can tell a lot by who decided to go with the towel around the waist and the towels over the shoulders. But Tony, what is your hot take that we sent you to a sauna for?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Well, we're bringing it all back. Check fork knocks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I haven't heard a word that Tony has said right now. I'm just looking at the top four abs of Mally.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It's getting hot in here, too, pal. It's getting...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So, just to be clear, we did the sponsored segment for a hot take, and the hot take was the best player in the world should win the MVP. Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Mally can come into this studio. I'll tell you that right now. What's going on under that tap? Yeah, I feel bad for the podcast audience because the only reward for this segment seems to be the visual component, and Mally has won it. This is a star-making turn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I have two. I think I have two now. Thank you for the shout-out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
That was just for the close friends, but they wouldn't know that because Taylor had to pick that photo. earlier in the show. So all right, Tony, come back in here because I want to talk UFC with you as we try to depoliticize sports for a moment. I'd like to talk about UFC Miami. You can feel free to wear your same wardrobe.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
But Jess, you mentioned you're doing your deep dive on the Oscars and how time consuming that is. I'm in a similar boat. I've got a lot to watch. So I need you to essentially cut out two films. Now, I'm pretty sure, Amelia Perez, that's done. We're not doing that one. But I need another one that you just know that I'm not going to jibe with. Because I know I've got to watch Conclave.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I've had way too many people tell me that Conclave is a banger. So what should be next on my chopping block?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So more sex in that film than I've ever seen in my entire life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah. I read this article that said the Oscars are afraid of sex because certain films didn't get nominated. And I'm like, there is more sex in Anora than you can possibly imagine.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So The Brutalist is like three and a half hours long. Exactly. I think it just went on a video on demand. I kind of need to see The Brutalist. Man, it was the odds-on favorite, and then this AI controversy sprang around The Brutalist, which I kind of... I don't get all too much. I saw the director speak on this AI controversy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
For those that don't know, in post-production, they used artificial intelligence to refine Hungarian accents to make it more authentic, rather than just let the performances speak for themselves, which sometimes is a good thing. If you watch Blake Lively in the town, you wish that they used some artificial intelligence because I don't know what that accent was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So sometimes accents can be like a huge distraction. I don't know how many people would be nitpicking the Hungarian accents, but this seems to be a big betrayal of artistry. But I thought the director acquitted himself nicely in that, look, we're trying to make an authentic film that speaks to certain people and you literally want to speak to them. You don't want them to be turned off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I see him all the time and it's never not awkward. Always awkward. I mean, you've been with me to a game where I just like have to walk. My walk is I have to walk right behind Josie. I think we both kind of know. I hope he doesn't. I know he's not a fan, but yeah, a tough one for the University of Miami.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

We should have had this entire discussion with Mally shirtless.

That's a Philly, it's always sunny thing. The Cavenders what?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But Haley Cavender is a brilliant passer. And going to those games are a great experience. Jess, actually, look, there was plenty of reason. Miami season hasn't gone well. It's a good atmosphere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
This is the worst U.N. men's basketball team I've ever seen. And for them to waste all that momentum from back-to-back really deep runs in the men's tournament is really kind of heartbreaking. I mean, as you know, I was a blue blood. I knew ball better than anybody when it came to college hoops. You were. Yeah. No, I could...

You should be in my house when Cindy asks me, hey, are we going to the game? And I just laugh her out of a room. I literally would rather do anything else.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, I should clarify. It's a men's hoops team. Like, I love going to the women's games. And I know that this season's been disappointing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
But Hannah Cavender played in that game. Hannah Cavender had her car stolen. Carson Beck. Two cars stolen. Have you read the details? This was a home invasion. While they were sleeping, the men went into their home and grabbed the keys. And that's how they sold all three cars.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It's hugely terrifying. Really unfortunate and scary situation. They caught the guy that did it, who confessed to it and the entire plan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
They got their cars back intact. Quite honestly, you can talk yourself into it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
That's why Stugatz isn't here today. Look, everyone was having a go at Miami. Move to Miami, see what happens. Look, I'm not going to issue the banter back like, maybe stealing the car from a Georgia Bulldog's a public service. But, you know, the case is closed. So, everyone is good. Hey, did you know MLS is back this weekend? No? No one knew?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I was curious to know. That was not MLS.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So you guys are aware that Messi played in a game that was below zero. The coldest game that he's ever played. And that wasn't MLS. It was on FS2.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
It was on FS2. FS2-er. And this was just the first leg. They're going to play Sporting Kansas City to win the CONCACAF Champions Cup, hopefully. But MLS is back this weekend. And look, most people did not know that Leo Messi was playing a game in Kansas City in sub-zero temperatures. MLS, not really part of the national conversation, even though it's coming back this week.

The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I have a storyline that many people may not be aware of, okay? Here's a storyline that I think I'm breaking to everybody but maybe Jess because I've texted Jess about this. There is a player on FC Cincinnati, Peter Mangione. Do we have a photo of this soccer player on FC Cincinnati? Certainly a familiar surname. That is because he is Luigi's cousin. Luigi's cousin plays for FC Cincinnati.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
And their kit sponsor, anybody want to guess the kit sponsor for FC Cincinnati?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
They have a health care provider. No way. As their kid sponsor. And I'm pretty sure no one knows about this. They do now. They do now. But look, if you've been waiting for the right moment to politicize Emma last year, here is your chance. Luigi's cousin plays for FC Cincinnati.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
You do. They are great brows. That wraps up our MLS preview. Good coverage.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Can somebody tell me what it was? It's a CONCACAF Champions Cup.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah. But I'm not exactly sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
So I'm assuming Inter-Miami qualified for the CONCACAF Champions Cup because they won the supporter shield. They had Messi. No. Supporter Shield. They won the Supporter Shield because they had Messi, no doubt. So that gets them there. Man, I could not tell you who won MLS last year. I'm just drawing a blank here. And I like the sport. I follow it occasionally.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Wasn't it Los Angeles? The Galaxy? No. That feels right. Was it LA versus LA in the final? No, it was LA versus New York City.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, well, either way, Sporting Kansas City somehow got the other spot, and they lost the first leg in Sun Zero Temperatures. Ah, yes, the Galaxy won. Can someone find out how Sporting Kansas City made this thing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
All right, so it was in NYCFC, which is who Inter-Miami start this season off against. Fan with, folks. I mean, I've been through the ringer. There's only so much we can do, yeah. I've been through the ringer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I didn't like A Real Pain. Really?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Because I thought, I understand why he's getting all the fanfare and it kind of feels like, oh, a bunch of movie people are watching Kieran Culkin for the first time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
For me, I understand there's an audience for it, and I'm sure there are connection points for a ton of people that I didn't have connection points to.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Since I didn't have the connection points to a real pain, I went specifically for what I heard was a great Kieran Culkin performance, and I saw just Kieran Culkin. I wasn't blown away by the performance. He does a solid job. So without the connection points, it didn't do much for me. I understand why people don't like The Substance, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
And I think you and I were talking about some of the, there's like a plot hole.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
The whole thing is you are one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah. Or you have no recollection of enjoying it. And when they really hammer home that you are one, well, of course one of them is going to go all wonky on the other and be greedy with their time with the substance. So I do think, like, it's not a perfect film at all, but I did like its audacity. I did like that the performances were visceral and they went for it the way that they shot it.

Thank you for clarifying. Those blood clots obviously can move around your body into places that I think Serena a couple years ago had one in her chest, in her lung or something. There's a lot of things that blood clots can do. Luckily, they caught this. They were talking about how Wemby was very sluggish, how he was very just kind of like... He looked tired. He looked exhausted 24-7.

Obviously, you're playing an NBA schedule and flying and doing all these different things. You're going to feel pretty exhausted. But the team was like, wait, something just isn't right here.

And I thought there was something interesting where Anthony Edwards, who is obviously – Bravado, who is face of the league in a sense, got asked during the All-Star game. I don't know if Jeremy, you saw this. It was like, hey, are you ready to be the face of the league? Is that your place? And he's like, nah, that's Wemby. Like, Wemby's going to be the face of the league, not me.

Second round pick, yes. Second-round pick. There's no way they give him up for a second-round pick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Hall of Hypotheticals
I get it, though, because it's a weak quarterback draft. The two best quarterbacks are going to be gone way before seven. So giving the seventh-round pick for a guy, if you think he's just as good as Cam Ward or Sanders, maybe not that crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Hall of Hypotheticals
That I would do. I actually like McCarthy more this year if you get him for that because he's been in the NFL a year. So he has NFL weight program. He has NFL. But he hasn't walked. The logic is odd. Are you saying this worked out well for him? No, no. What I'm just saying is, like, he hasn't played, right? But he has, like, he's been in NFL systems. There's no, like, NFL shock value.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Hall of Hypotheticals
Like, he's not like, oh, my God, what is this? Like, he's seen NFL speed not on the field, but he's seen it in practice. He's been around it. He knows what it looks like. And I'm pretty sure he threw a pick six in his first pass. Ah, it's a preseason. Who cares?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Thursday Night Football Reaction
They're kind of playing themselves because, again, people are gravitating to this guy, and you're helping build a myth when you're doing that thing. He had a fresh cut. Like, how did he get that done?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Thursday Night Football Reaction
I have a theory, and this might sound bonkers to you, but everybody that I've floated this theory to, their initial reaction is like, what are you talking about? And then they kind of see it. So we say this was an alleged murder. He's not even really denying. We know what happened. We have video, right? So how do you go into a trial?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Thursday Night Football Reaction
Well, if this guy has a cause, my theory is, what if his defense is self-defense? I got him before his policies and this healthcare system got me. Now, it's going to be a difficult trial just because everyone feels some kind of way about healthcare. But if that is his defense, he actually gets to make the trial the showcase and put the spotlight on his cause if he argues that as his defense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Thursday Night Football Reaction
But if he didn't have United, then it has nothing to do with him or the guy that he murdered, right? I think if he's speaking about general health care and an alignment among health insurance companies, I think this defense allows him to do seemingly, given what we've known, what's been published, his very clear feelings about the matter.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Thursday Night Football Reaction
If he goes down that road, he at least gets to present his case and put the system on trial.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
I don't know the stadium, but the hill? Murray Hill.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
I think a lot of the feedback, because this has been a debate in tennis circles, is it was Miami when it was in Key Biscayne. But Hard Rock Stadium, which I think, having gone, I actually never experienced Key Biscayne. Ever. Really? Yeah, it's one of my great regrets, but I always thought it was too much of a hassle as a local.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
And Hard Rock Stadium is just, as a campus, for the Miami Open, it's easy to get around. Like, I really enjoy the Miami Open there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
It's outside of Palm Springs. Yeah, the wind has been crazy this year.

I like Indian Wells as a viewing experience more because of the time that it airs. And you're right. It's more of a proper tennis camp.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
And even though I'm a Miami guy through and through and I've never actually been Indian Wells and Miami has more prize money I would concede that now that it is a hard rock stadium that the the main stadium being more antiseptic less of a traditional Tennessee guys are talking about from the fans perspective the reason I asked this Venus from a players perspective to I think more major players even though like there's a lot of Crossover you probably see better quality players over at Indian Wells for some top players
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
It's an excellent point, but there's been some great tennis being played, and I have a shocking observation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
But I think there's a player right now who's 38 years old who's the most athletically gifted tennis player of all time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
I think Gael Monfils is the most athletic tennis player to ever live.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
He's got all the tools. He's never really put it all together. It's incredible what he's doing at 38. I mean, father went away. I don't really know how he's doing it, but he's playing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
He's 38, and he's right now. You can make an argument that Alcaraz is going to be in that conversation. Djokovic was plenty athletic. I wasn't old enough to watch him play, but Yannick Noah, if I Google it, most athletic tennis players, obviously the father of Joachim Noah, so great athletic genes there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
But I think Gail Monfils might be the most athletic tennis player of all time, at least on the men's side.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
It also shows you the era that he played in and how great everybody else was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
As a 38-year-old, seeing how competitive he is right now, if he were in this era, if the prime of his career were in this era, he might have won a major. And by the way, I'm not going to sleep on him for the French Open this year. I'm not. He's playing really well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
You can say Alcaraz or Alcaraz. Alcaraz.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
What do I? I like saying it like that. I know it's a choice that I'm making. But check out this rally from Gail Monfils. This is from a few days ago. And this is him at 38 years old against Dmitrov. This was an amazing match. I think it was a 34-shot rally at one point here. But this is an example.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
And one of Gale's nicknames is Slider Man because when he's on the clay surface, his athleticism really jumps off the screen there. But look at his range of motion, his ability to get to some of these balls at 38 years old. It would absolutely make Dan Levitard ask, what is going on there?

They're just going to put him at quarterback. The guy can't run an offense. He is absolutely incapable of throwing the ball on time. He can run, and I think he's going to run them to six or seven wins, and it's going to be – it's going to be hard to watch. I – I was watching NFL Network after the signing, and they were like, they should go back to the Ohio State offense with Justin Fields.

And I'm like, how embarrassing for a professional organization to have to go back to a college offense from five years ago in order to try and move the ball. How embarrassing is the New York Jets? Next year, they're going to have $60 million in the quarterback room with only Justin Fields in there.

And I think Caleb Williams showed you what he is, which is a quarterback that was coddled from the time he was probably in grade school until he got to the pros where he's no longer the best player on the field. And I'm not sure that Ben Johnson is going to be able to fix him.

What's been the biggest perk since winning the Super Bowl so far?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- If the season BEGAN today
My take was simply that the Eagles defense played so well that any quarterback that made the playoffs would have won that game. And I even gave myself a little out by saying I didn't think Russell Wilson could win that game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- If the season BEGAN today
But now you know what? I've rescinded it. And the only one I wouldn't have faith in is Matthew Stafford because he doesn't have legs. Wow. That's the guy. Great arm, but Jalen had a lot of third and longs that he converted with his legs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- If the season BEGAN today
I'll go one more. I have more confidence in Bo Nix than I would Jordan Love. Because Bo Nix is better on the ground.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You just take out Jalen Hurts and you put in like a Bo Nix or you put in obviously a Josh Allen or a Lamar Jackson. Those guys win easily.

So, peek behind the scenes here. This isn't the first time I've heard this take today. And the first time I heard it, I agreed with it wholeheartedly. Thank you.

GBF- If the season BEGAN today
I couldn't help notice that you mentioned all those. They have the best wide receiver duo, the best running back, the best D-line, but you didn't mention the Super Bowl MVP. You didn't say they have the best quarterback. You didn't mention Jalen Hurts in that list of accolades.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Yeah, I would. You get my support. I said Matt Stafford's the one I had the least faith in, not that he couldn't do it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- If the season BEGAN today
It's not a dumb, ridiculous question, especially not what Sims just said. My take is that with the exception of Russell Wilson, any quarterback that made the playoffs would have won that game with how good the Eagles defense played. Oh, Jesus. Any quarterback in the playoffs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- If the season BEGAN today
No, no, no. Russell Wilson was the only one that you might have had to caveat. And you know what? I like that you include him now. Russell Wilson wins that game too.

He's also playing a position in which Fred Warner is excelling at his position with a fractured ankle. He's played several games in a row with that fractured ankle. Your take on what Ward had to say before we get to another team leader in George Kittle.

So does this deflect from a loss that pretty much ends San Francisco's season? Or does it compound some of the larger issues? Because... If you're a Niners fan and you're watching that game, you're wondering about the blueprint. And then you have a productive player quitting on you, a player that you're paying a lot of money to quitting on you, too.

I've had insight from previous union reps before, Hawk, but I haven't really had the opportunity to talk to you about these short week Thursday night football games because it's always a national talking point any time you have a really bad game.

You're right. They can be ours in the playoffs. I'm with you. They are sneaky. But were you in – I imagine you were representing your team when it came to these discussions on the short week Thursday night football games. That was slop.

Yeah, I'd like to revisit the Penn State of it all briefly because an expanded CFP is supposed to mitigate a team getting there kind of with a lucky path. But if you've watched these games, and I caught a little bit of BS from some Penn State fans online, but those that actually watched that game, I'm serious. I know it was a blowout against SMU. Penn State's offense stunk in that game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Big Game James Franklin
That game was there for the taking for SMU. And similarly, a little less so, but Boise State had its opportunities. And I didn't come away with Penn State, despite them kind of shifting a narrative a little bit. Look, James Franklin won two big games. College football playoff games are supposed to be big games.

Local Hour: Big Game James Franklin
But when you watch those games and you consider the opponents and all the questions that you had about them, we're waiting for him to have a big one. and they go up 10-0, and I realize how many crucial injuries Notre Dame have, and I'm like, are they going to do this? Are they going to have good fortune all the way to a CFP final, and are they going to need this much luck to change this narrative?

If I may, just to fuel this James Franklin narrative. They had really good fortune leading up to this point and their good fortune continued with Notre Dame's injuries and also they almost made it to a college football playoff final having won a semifinal game without completing a pass to a wide receiver.

This dude stinks. He may get there, but this season they didn't ask any. You want to talk counting stats like 50 touchdowns, nine interceptions. I don't trust that guy at all. Haven't. That dude threw three picks. Now, two of them, rightful calls, I understand. But they were bailouts.

The letter of the law, the official even in the booth said it was a right call. I'm with you. It was a bad decision, a worse throw. Warren wasn't afforded the opportunity to make the play as he was being face-guarded, but whatever. It just continued that I don't trust Drew Aller at all here. And in that late-game situation, he makes a terrible decision. I don't see it at all with him.

Drew Haller doesn't have that TD to interception ratio because he's particularly good. I've watched a lot of him. I think he's fortunate. And they don't ask a lot from him. They hide him. They have really good weapons, particularly in that backfield. And Warren is like a unicorn. A unicorn that was probably concussed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Big Game James Franklin
I think both tight end ones were playing the majority of that game with a concussion. and he's just not someone that I would trust. I don't care what the numbers say. I don't trust his decision-making. Quite frankly, I don't trust his accuracy. Earlier in that game, that game is actually probably over if he makes a routine NFL throw.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Big Game James Franklin
He has his running back wide open in the flat, set that goal line, and he puts a ball right at the inside knee. Not wrong. That is a throw, if you're talked about as a top five pick, you've got to make that throw.

Miller Lite is a great unifier. Miller Lite is brewed for taste. It hits different than other Lite beers. The original Lite beer since 1975 and still the very best one. Miller Lite. Great taste.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Big Game James Franklin
Yeah, yeah. It's a great kind of game because literally every play feeds to this narrative. And for those two programs especially, like... For the winner, greatness. For the loser, utter embarrassment. I think less so for Notre Dame when you consider their injury situation. But teetering along the line the entire game is James Franklin's legacy, and I think it just added.

If I may espouse the virtues of fighting Irish football in a likely scenario for me, no, I think if you play that game 10 times, that was just about the weakest form of Notre Dame when you consider their really bad injury situation. That game was totally there to be had for Penn State. Up 10-0, it felt like a three-score lead with all the momentum.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

And then Angeli comes in and they get a crucial field goal.

massive for that game and then they start the the very next drive in that Penn State side which was that that stadium was loud last night it came across on the television they get the delay a game and you're you're thinking man Notre Dame is toast but they compose themselves they answer right back you realize this is a tie game and then we're just playing with James Franklin now you know that he's gonna screw this up Drew Aller is so friggin overrated I can't believe it hurts
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Big Game James Franklin
I don't know if you were watching this game with the sound on. I wish you did. Because right before Drew Aller threw that interception, Greg McIlroy said, Drew Aller is not the type of quarterback that's going to throw an interception in this spot.

I love that about this sport because it taps into something almost primal that the professional sports don't.

The way Stu does it, it's like this long thing to get you going, but then you're doing it the way you're used to getting it from Stu, so you just do it really fast because Stu has already done the long part. So you've got to mimic Stu's cadence so then Mike can give a fast one, I give a fast one, and then we're back to you. But I don't, if I'm going to be honest, I don't like it.

Yeah, I'm going to also go with Billy on this. It's just that it's a lot to demand from a kid that's coming out to play because it's old saying, right? Like when you're in college, you're going to be lining up against a guy who might be taking finance classes or installing aluminum siding after he graduates, where when you get to the NFL, you're playing against some podcasts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- One Last Boys Trip to Vegas
yeah it's something like that but you're playing against a guy who is all world every time even he might not be the best receiver in the league but he's definitely one of the best players in the world every single down and like and also you know like to echo what Billy said if you're drafting him to play both sides of the ball your team is so severely down bad that there is you know it just shouldn't be happening Carter he's a you know he's like a physical freak and he is his job is to get the quarterback where it's a lot more if you're
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- One Last Boys Trip to Vegas
doing both sides of the ball. So if you're drafting Travis Hunter, hoping he's going to be a both sides of the ball guy, you're already setting him up for failure. So I'm going to say Travis Hunter is more likely. Plus he has all the pressure of being, you know, Heisman guy and this like media darling. So it's, it's, I'm going to say definitely Travis Hunter.

Back to your thing. Now that we're thinking about a three-year Max Crosby deal, I think you just kind of pointed out they tipped their hand a little bit because they're picking six. They'd have to trade up to get one of the top two quarterbacks in this draft. So do you think you're going to have enough to win something with Max Crosby plus unknown quarterback in the next three years?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- One Last Boys Trip to Vegas
They have to be going for a veteran. I can't even name a receiver of theirs outside Jacoby Myers, I guess Brock Bowers. But is that going to be good enough in the next three years to win anything?

I want to enjoy it with my friends. We're just firing up in the group chat right now. In fact, one of the guys provided a video that we just showed. You went through something together. Whether it be those guys on the ice, they went through their thing together. We went through all the stress, the highs and the lows, the screaming into your sweater as a group.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
I knew we were going to win with 12 seconds left. That's the only time where I was like, I'm actually going to see joy out of this thing. Because I ran through all the scenarios like Dr. Strange, and it was hard to find a rational reason outside of, we just have home ice in Game 7. That's what you play an entire season for.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
It was really hard to find a scenario in which I was going to feel any joy. And that's also probably why I cried.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
I can't imagine. And I know from people around the team, and Roy's played it cool, and that was a tense vibe. How could it not be? They had an extra day to chew on all the pressure. Maybe it ended up helping them. I know that 94 Rangers say that extra day helped them. And maybe if Oilers probably wanted to get right on the ice and keep playing and keep the momentum going.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
But, yeah, there's a lot of pressure that goes with Game 7 when it's for that cup. There's a whole new world of pressure when you're – a historic punchline.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
It's funny and absurd. You guys watched it on television. I asked Billy, who's not the biggest hockey guy, did that come across like it was a good game? Because that's a classic Game 7. Battle it out. Every play feels like it's important.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
Was it a big game? Did it feel good? It felt like a big game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
That was a great sequence. Usually those first periods in Game 7 are tight, like one goal, right back at you, right away. Like, holy shit, we got the highest possible tension here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
panthers got a goal and yeah you mentioned the icing but that's part of their style it's almost as if like you remember the raven steelers matchups in the in the regular season and postseason where their styles of violence those defensive styles made for the one example where you'd be like i don't mind this rock fight here in this game and that's that's just your classic game seven but i was curious for the people that weren't huge hockey fans if that game drew them in at all because i think they understood the stakes
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
Yes. Stats when you get to the Stanley Cup final can be overrated in that you need to implement your will and your strategy to win at least four times. And you don't give a shit about how you go about doing it. You just need to achieve that mission. Panthers did it four times. It took them three times to win that fourth one. Well, four times won that fourth one.

Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
Ron alluded to all the hard work that goes into this, and that's the type of pressure cooker these players were in yesterday in Game 7.

That transcends that sport and gets brought up every time someone is blowing a lead.

They almost have to do it on Sunday because the hockey calendar is so weird. There's so much offseason stuff that needs to be done in the next 72 hours, and there's a draft over the weekend.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
I was envious of the vibes that the Oilers fans brought into that game. And people were talking nonsense to me, and I couldn't muster up a comeback or anything like that. But I just wanted, if anything happens in this game, you feel how I feel right now. You feel that anger. You feel that despair. You feel like, oh my God, we're this close and it's not going to happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
I just wanted them to make them feel that. Yeah. And they felt it, and then they choked the game away, and they lost to a team that didn't play particularly well offensively in the biggest game. They didn't choke it away.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
No, no, no. I'm saying like the vice-like grip that we had on that game. Like literally choked the life out of that game. That's what I mean.

I was shocked. Terrible job. Game seven. But that's a Panthers identity. We've said that aloud a bunch of times. Like, why isn't this goalie coming out? And it's because the Panthers are still occupying that neutral zone, and you can't guarantee that there's going to be zone entry from Edmonton.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Yeah, but in the neutral zone, though, like, they didn't get a rush going, and you have to hedge against, like, a breakaway going the other way. I understand why he didn't pull them. I think he should have pulled them. Obviously now. Yeah, there was a stoppage in play where he should have absolutely pulled them.

Because my soul left my body at that moment. And I got to tell you, there has never been an arena that needed the first goal in a game more than that building.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

That third goal was the goal. No, no, no. The Oilers simply couldn't score first. Someone that was there, no one looked up. Oilers fans were feeling themselves talking all their garbage as they should have been because they were riding high. That was a nervous place.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
There was a lot of liquid courage that got people up for puck drop, but that place needed, needed the Oilers to not score first to come alive and realize that, okay, You know, this is just a fourth chance in four to get one. Let's do it.

You've got to let them have it. You got to let the Oilers fans have it, and you lay out. With the national anthem, bad job, too.

And Bob, in the middle of all of that, gets his fingertips on his blocker side to push the puck out. And it's not something that you caught in real time.

Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
That should have been the tying goal. So that it's overtime.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
You were terrified the entire time because, as they showed in that game, the Panthers made essentially one mistake in that game, and they paid for it. They get a little sloppy with possession in the zone. And that's Tarasenko, by the way, the savvy veteran, gives a puck away and a 100-foot – Eklad was so far out of position.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
You do not give up a 100-foot pass for that opportunity, and you realize, oh my God, it's happening again. This team all of a sudden gets breakaways at will, and we can never generate anything. There weren't quality scoring chances by the Florida Panthers. They didn't, on offense, didn't exactly play well. This is the biggest game in NHL history.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
A game seven, they won the cup, and they didn't even really execute on offense all that well, but they did what they needed to do defensively. Maybe if they swept, you could really talk about this team as an all-time team because this was the greatest NHL season. The greatest path for any Panther fan. You go through your rival, as you mentioned. You go through Boston. You go through New York.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
You go through a cup-starved nation and their greatest player. Unbelievable run. And maybe, even though it goes seven, and they're going to be that stat that comes up with teams that blow 3-0 leads, they can still be talked about an all-time team because that was a murderer's row they went through.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Mike, do you agree with Dan when he's saying he's not fearing McDavid the last 10 minutes of that game? Because that's the one guy I was fearing. I'm just telling you that for two games— Man, I was fearing Monmark. I know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Quality backcheck. That's a Game 7 backcheck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Total cheating. I will tell you the only time that I didn't have fear was when 42 was on the puck. When he was defending an Edmonton Oiler that was rushing into their zone, 42, after coming off a nightmarish game, 42 bounces back. I feel so comfortable with that guy on the ice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
And there's been a longstanding theory in all these podcasts that I've heard that your top defenseman needs to be a bigger guy because of the war of attrition in the playoffs. He's not a bigger guy. He's been waived twice in his career. He's the greatest waiver claim in the history of that sport. And I felt so safe with him when he was on the ice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
And he didn't have to be the best goalie in any of the series. He wasn't the best goalie in this series as it played out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
No, no, he was phenomenal last night. He had three outstanding games. But you look at who he went through to get to that place. Oh, the murderous row of goalies. Vasilevsky, Swayman, and Igor Shosturkin. He's not. There's a gulf there. And it didn't matter because of how this team is constructed. Constructed. I love it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Around that big contract of his, and he's a champion forevermore, and everything that Zaz said about his jersey and Hall of Fame, all that is true now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Yeah, they don't get into the playoffs last year without Alex Lyon.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Spencer Knight was on the ice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
There's got to be a story there. You understand why Opozo's getting it before Ekblad. But I would have liked Ekblad, especially because the moment in that game, it maybe might have been the cheating from Brandon Montour as Dan highlighted, or the bodies on top of bodies in the crease. But I thought the 1v1, McDavid against Aaron Ekblad, who's...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Played against Connor McDavid throughout junior hockey his entire life. He is not a great skater. There is such a wide gulf in skating ability on that 1v1. Eckblad stumbled with the cup. He almost tripped over the rug, right? He's not a great skater.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
That's not fair. I mean, he's had an injury-riddled career. Oh, and he was probably hurt there because his ankle probably swelled up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
Yeah, you're going to find out the injuries for all the teams, the losing team, and you're going to find out what's going on with Florida there. But for one moment, Aaron Ekblad was isolated with the game's greatest player, and he summoned enough effort to stop him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
They were due. I mean, fought it off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
The fact that not one time this season did they lead headed into the third period and lose the game. That's right.

How about Kevin Stenland without a stick for 96?

Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
It's a bad luck. How? Jaguar came out for the last time. Look, I was there. There were a lot of Boilers fans out there waiting for that moment. McDavid should have skated out and done it for them.

You don't know how many opportunities you're going to get to see it in your life.

It would have been nice for him to skate out and give the Oilers fans that came out in droves that moment.

Oh, yeah. Oh, he was plenty human. Five out of seven games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
I'm borrowing. I don't have a lot of precedent for a losing team in a game seven having a Conn Smythe winner on their team. There's no real protocol for this. I was just borrowing from the last time this happened with Jaguar against the Devils. He came out, and I think that if he could do it over again and give the Oilers fans that moment, maybe he'd reconsider.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
But that's the last thing he's thinking about there. I get why he did that. I'm just saying those fans that came out, and they were Legion, and it really set up for an amazing dynamic because most of them, they were in the lower bowl too, but it wasn't Rangers-level lower bowl. It wasn't Bruins-level lower bowl. They were pretty much upper deck was oil country, and to have –
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
The dueling cheers and boos from the upper deck down was such an intense crowd. And that's why people call that the best two words in sports, because that was an atmosphere that I've never really experienced in my life.

I made an impulse buy on game time and I wanted to enjoy that with my wife no matter the result. And I told myself like right before skiing in game time because we were about to take my daughter to my dad's to watch her for us to watch the game. I said, you know, if my team wasn't in this, that's a place that I want to be. I love puck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
I've been in an arena when they've handed that trophy out before and it's so cool. And I know it would sting like hell if this is the greatest collapse in pro sports history in a best of seven. But... Once you get some separation from it and that pain, if he comes back, it's the game's greatest player capping off the game's greatest comeback. And that's something that you have.

Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
And that's a conversation starter. That's whenever you get around with your hoes or friends, you get to say you were there. And on the opposite end of that is the franchise's first Stanley Cup. And it was beautiful, man. We wept. We celebrated with people in that organization. I got to tell you, I was really touched.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
I got a DM the second it hit triple zero from the dude that gave me my internship at a high school. His name is Connor Tennis, and I want to shout him out. That experience at a high school working for the Florida Panthers really shocked me.

Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
shaped me in a lot of ways because i went into a franchise i was undergoing a lockout and there were massive layoffs and it wasn't if we're not for that experience i wouldn't have valued the loyalty that i found on this show and the job security i had in this show so much i might have made different career choices had i not been granted that internship under michael yormark in the florida panthers and it was like it was a sweet emotional moment it's like after you have a kid you find yourself crying a lot for different things and i'm not sure i was crying so much for
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: THE FLORIDA PANTHERS ARE STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!
for the fact that we had won the Stanley Cup or the fact that we had gone through this incredible journey. But it was an amazing outpouring of emotion. I was really happy for a lot of those people that have been with that franchise for a very long time, Dan.

Hello. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Sure. What's up? Had a question about my wife and I are in a healthy amount of debt, and we're not sure if we should sell the house to get out of it to try and kind of reboot and start from ground zero. How much debt? Total is about 150.
The Ramsey Show
Hope Is the Difference Between Victim and Victor
50 in college tuition, about 3,000 in medical.

Normal Is Broke and in Debt. Do You Want To Be Normal?
Hey, good afternoon, guys. Thanks for taking my call. Sure. I have recently, sadly, I guess, come into some money through an inheritance. My wife and I's plan is to pay off all of our debts. And even with that, we'll have some money left over. Wow. My specific question is we currently have a mortgage loan. That totals about $450,000.
The Ramsey Show
Normal Is Broke and in Debt. Do You Want To Be Normal?
$350,000 of that is a 20-year mortgage at 2.875%, and we have about 15 years left to pay on that. The other $100,000 is a HELOC. That's about 6% right now. We're going to have enough to pay off the HELOC and get the regular, you know, the, the first mortgage down to about $250,000. Wow.
The Ramsey Show
Normal Is Broke and in Debt. Do You Want To Be Normal?
My, my question is, and I've asked a couple of folks, I'm getting competing answers, so I'm hoping you guys were a tiebreaker. Um, I have the possibility of refinancing that, uh, to, you know, $250,000 balance to a regular mortgage at 6% but for 10 years.
The Ramsey Show
Normal Is Broke and in Debt. Do You Want To Be Normal?
So if I lower the pay, yeah, my payment's currently $3,300 a month. If I refinance, I can get that payment down to about $2,400 a month, and then I'll be able to actually put $1,000 per month towards the principal alone.
The Ramsey Show
Normal Is Broke and in Debt. Do You Want To Be Normal?
Well, with my income, I wouldn't be able to do that.
The Ramsey Show
Normal Is Broke and in Debt. Do You Want To Be Normal?

If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Hey, how y'all doing? I got a good one for you.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
So we COVID hit. We did a big remodel. It was about $100,000 that we've invested to create home offices. As a result, we kind of credit carded everything and We've been living paycheck to paycheck for a while, and I've just lost my job this week. We were trying to do a refinance, and that fell through.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
And so long story short, we went from about $195K in income to about $65K and looking for advice. And we cannot sell the house because it's under remodel. We're not allowed to sell it for at least a year, and the remodel is not quite finished.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Yeah, it was extensive. We kind of expanded the second floor and just with the goal of ultimately selling. But it's obviously when I lost my job, it was kind of a deal where it kind of put the brakes on everything even more after living paycheck to paycheck. And so we're obviously doing it the wrong way. So looking for advice on how to get out of this.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Okay, so the mortgage is 202, and we have things like cars and credit cards, and a lot of that is just due to the remodel, but it's $210,000 and other non-mortgage debt.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
They don't. Yeah, so the cars we're paying, one of them is $394. The other one is $380 a month.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Yeah, approximately $28 in total.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Well, so one of them is about $13,500. The other one's $15,000. Okay. Okay.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Well, unfortunately, we had like a foundation loan. A bunch of it's credit card. I have a student loan at about $20,000. And I think, yes, the rest of it is either small loans like through Home Depot or credit cards. Correct.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
I am looking for work, but I'm going to work on some certifications. I took a job that wasn't ideal for obviously my career and skill set, and so that's something I'm going to be working on is some probably Azure certifications. Are they going to cost money? A little. The test, the actual certification exam is only $165. Okay.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
I can. There are some sample tests and some certification videos that are very helpful, but it's minimal charges, if any.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Um... Well, I've applied for a bunch of jobs already. It's a matter of finding the right fit. I would like to focus on the skill set to some extent, but probably in two weeks I would be able to pass that certification.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
I was at $130,000, but yes. Okay. Yeah.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Well, we had a small severance, but it was only $5,000. And so our current, just our debt load is like a little over $6,200 for the month. And so the money we've got in hand will not last a month.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
Yeah, I had one job. I had one job where I picked up some work to do some light remodeling for a lady, and that was $530. So you're pretty handy? I've collected about half of that. Yeah, I mean, I'm doing the remodel myself, so yeah.
The Ramsey Show
If You Live Fake Rich, You Will Become Real Broke!
To some extent, yes. High levels.

Hey, I'm doing great. Thanks. How are you?
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
All right, so around August last year, I finally decided to accept the fact that I found myself about, well, I'll just tell you, $11,660 in credit card debt. So I decided to put myself on a budget and start paying it off. I've made about $5,486 in payments toward that debt. Just about? Was that exact? Wow. Yeah, that was exact. And then it leaves me with exactly $6,173 in remaining debt to pay.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
Is that all of your debt? Yes. Okay. So, and as I'm paying this off, I want to get more aggressive with it, but you know, I'll be honest, I'm, I'm really a little, um, worried about pulling money, um, away from a recurring retirement and savings contributions to do it.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
I just wonder sort of what's your perspective on, should I stop paying my 401k to get that debt paid down as aggressively as possible? Or should I just continue on?
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
I contribute about $300 a month towards it.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
So I make $81,000 a year. So I guess, I don't know, back of the napkin math, I'd say that's probably like 6%. You're saying $300 a month? 300 bucks a pay period. So 600 bucks a month.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
Well, I actually was able to consolidate my debt into a 0% card. So I had some high interest debt that I've already paid off. And the debt that remains is one single amount on a 0% card. And that 0% goes until March next year.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
Yes, I do. I've got about $3,000 in a brokerage account. $70,000 in retirement and $1,500 in my emergency fund.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
Yes, I do. And I think I just needed to hear somebody tell me it was okay. Because, you know, I'm just very wary of liquidating that extra cash, but I totally see what you're saying.
The Ramsey Show
Face Debt Head-On Before It Destroys Your Family
Okay. All right. So I think I know what I need to do.

So... You know, I... I just, yeah, I don't know. It's just, it's kind of one of those things that I don't have an answer. You know, I try my best, but I don't always do my best kind of thing. It wasn't pre-planned. It wasn't done in a way to be nefarious. It wasn't, I'm going to tell this guy, I'm going to do this in this sprint. It wasn't done in that way. It wasn't done that way at all.
