Our attendance was pretty bad across the city, right? There were like 50 to 80 percent attendance.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
He getting ready to quit the show. I'm gonna be the host. You can relax, mama. You can stop. You got to hit a lick, Jules. I had to call my mama back six months later. You didn't quit yet, did you? That is a fairly accurate representation of What happened between me and my mom?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, I mean, it was never a sting as much as it was, all right, y'all don't know what y'all want to do. At some point, I'm not going to be working here anymore anyway. Like, that's the inevitability of all employment. So I will just leave now. And I mean, bro, I'm blessed, man. I got the Hulu special, CNN, we're back next month, and I'm in a movie with Keanu Reeves later this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I'll take that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Look, there's a lot of levels. I just left Sundance last week. I was in Sundance skiing with all the stars.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
No, no, heavens no. This is, it's a comedy. It's Keanu Reeves and Jonah Hill. It's called Outcome. All I can say about it right now, it'll be on Apple Plus. All I can say is that I play a character that is essentially, imagine if Deion Sanders was a civil rights lawyer. Why is that all you can say?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Because I don't know what the hell else I can say legally right now about a film that doesn't have a trailer yet, and I don't want to get in trouble with Apple. All right. It's a comedy. That's a good reason. I'm sorry. See, that's how people get edited out of movies, talking too much. I'm sorry. They got the AI. They'll take my ass right out and put in Anthony Anderson or something. No.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Then you got to call your mom again and say, yeah. Yeah, Joyce.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, but I think somehow equality in DE&I, they've equated to welfare or a handout instead of recognizing as people as qualified or more qualified than white applicants. Statistically, white women benefit the best and the most from DE&I. So I think it's gonna be on them to lead the charge to get that back on the books once they get all unemployed. I've been trying.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I think it's that. Also, I think, bro, there's going to be like a downturn on harassment suits and trying to prove discrimination in the workplace as well. Like, it's about to get weird. I have a broader question about DE&I as we start eliminating initiatives and programs. Do big and tall stores fall under DE&I? And should we get rid of them?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
No, stop.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Here's the issue. I'm at that weird threshold. And Dan, I don't know where you are on your fitness journey right now, but I feel like you're like me, where... I'm almost too big for the department store, but I'm too skinny for big and tall. So I need a 4032.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I live in that purgatory. 3832, 4032, depending on the clothing designer, right? And there's almost always only one 4032. And then you go, can you check your other stores? Yeah, we got one five hours away, you kind of chubby bastard. So I either need to gain 20 pounds or lose 10.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And I want to know whether or not I can sue these department stores for not carrying enough 4032s, because I think it's discrimination against my people. If a woman can sue Lyft for not being able to get in the car, I should be able to sue a department store for not being able, you know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Okay. Well, then I want her on stage with that other rapper that they keep wheeling out. What's his name? Dave Bluntz? Put it with him. Yeah, you know the one. I know. The guy, he sat the whole time. And he's a great rapper. He's so big that he stood during one of his raps and got a standing ovation. Just for standing. I'm not hating. I'm just saying I want in on this inequality lawsuit game too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And I think big and tall is going to be my play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
So bad. I saw I read that script for that episode in season one, and I think it's a five page scene that I'm in. There's probably a page and a half of dialog that they hit once for the director. Then the director gives them the Steve and Martin short do your thing magic take.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
and they did everything in that scene without the dialogue that was on the page and it somehow still fit the dialogue that i had to throw back at them and they improvised all types of extra stuff and they didn't add a second of tape to the take the level of perfect it'd be literally like if i told you to wrap a song as written and then i say now freestyle that same song hit all the choruses hit all the bridges at the exact same time but use whatever words you want and make sure the song still says the same thing
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Definitely intimidating. Like they're straight up gods, bro. And they're like, okay, now you're in the scene and now talk about a cactus. and you're just praying you don't mess up, but they don't let you feel intimidated by them. They have a way of disarming. It's like Steve Martin, for sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
He's aware of how great he is and how great you think he is, that he will just kind of disarm you in a scene. Overrated, why?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You know, most disrespect that I see is about business. It's about or it's about joke theft. Like if you look at Cat Williams and the grievances he had on Shannon Sharp, none of it was about I don't think you're funny. It was more technical business related stuff. You crossed me. You wronged me. You disrespected the game in some sort of way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
but just coming out and going somebody ain't funny that's not going to be enough for you to build your career for 20 years anybody can get five years and stand up regardless of your skill set you can get a five-year runway but then as your audience's taste evolves can you evolve with them will be the question and that's the true testament so you know we'll see roy jessica asked you about only murders in the building that's one where you're going in with these comedy icons
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I think setting an example is probably the weirdest thing, you know, like, cause the scene I was in was with Hassan Johnson, who, you know, we know as Weebay from the wire and you know, he's a drama, you know, he does drama for the most part. So to be in a comedy with him was like, that was dope. But when I'm around younger comments, man, I'm just here to be a reservoir of advice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I remember when I first moved to L.A., bro, in 06, I was in this acting class, and they have all the pictures of everybody who took the class before you, and Aisha Tyler was on there. And I sent her a disrespectfully long Facebook message, just, hey, give me the game. You black, I'm black, L.A., hello.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Man, thank you, brother. I do read them, especially the stuff on Reddit. It's two places in comments I respect, Reddit and YouTube, because those people got time. Like, it's not the quick Twitter nonsense. It's going to be a deep dive into why you suck. And somewhere in there might be a very justified critique. So I'm okay with that. Love it or hate it, it's out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Hulu gave me my money, the check cleared. I don't care.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, because it's just me. Nobody can give me notes on it or anything like that. And I mean, I just want it's weird. I didn't write the special to talk about loneliness. But the more I wrote, the more I realized all these jokes are just about we're alone, bro. We need to join a book club or a sex party. We need to connect again. And that's where the thoughts just started flowing from.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
So I didn't really even deal, surprisingly, I didn't really get into politics. Like I had Kamala and Trump jokes when I first started out, but by the time it was time to tape in DC, I was like, eh, meh.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You know what part of it was to me is that something as simple as the rise of Uber Eats and not leaving your house to go get better food. Cause like delivery used to be what pizza sandwich wings. That was it. Now you can get a whole like conversation food. You can have delivered sushi. You take your ass out the house to go get that. Whole ass T-bone steak coming to your house.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I used to work, shout out to Steakout. It was a nineties establishment in the down South that delivered steaks, solely steaks to the rich side of town. Like that was such an elitist thing. Now anybody can have a damn ribeye at their crib. You supposed to go to the store, get bad service, have a conversation and bond with people.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And like, I just think, man, the death of retail was the death of communication.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
yeah dude i just think like we think about retail bro retail was the last spot when you would talk with the stranger either that or if you showed up to the game early and there's somebody close to you in one of your seats where you're sitting Otherwise, when do you just voluntarily talk to people anymore? Well, it's impossible to know where people are going.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Jeremy is aggressive about meeting people.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
When I used to work at Golden Corral, there were people like you who would come in and just eat alone just to talk to the server, which you could do back in 98. But now your server has eight tables and she's understaffed and somebody else's food is late. They don't have time to talk to us either. Like nobody in our action anymore. Bro, the strippers don't even talk to you anymore.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
They used to, like, come over and be like, why are you here, sir?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Um, there's one joke I flubbed, but other than that, yeah, I set out what I meant to do. Hey, we're lonely. Here's why we're lonely. Here's solutions to the loneliness. Here's where I'm lonely. Good night. Those were the three beats of the special, because I don't think you can get out there without talking about your own stuff a little bit. I think that's disingenuous in a way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You know, I deal with that a little bit. Like, I joked about it, but I did get invited to a sex party by two porn stars, and I didn't go. And then my mother told me all they were trying to do was connect with you. Like, in what world does your Christian mother have to point out the fact that you rejected connection? Essentially is what I did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Say what you want about weird stuff, but at least those people found their tribe.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
It won't be now, bro. It'll be, I mean, it'll be like three years from now. Some stand-up that I respect and look up to, it'll just be, you did your thing with the flower shit. And then they'll just walk off. Like, it'll be the quickest, shortest interaction, and it will mean the absolute world to me, bro. Absolute.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Chris Rock complimented me one time on a Daily Show segment. And it was something I'd done like two years prior. So the fact that that was like still sitting in his mind and he was like, well, first off, why are you at home watching the Daily Show? Chris Rock, don't you have stuff to do? And I guess the answer is no. So... Sinbad watches a lot of comedy still. Sinbad knew who I was.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I met him at a Netflix party. And, like, that's one of the guys that I looked up to. It was Sinbad, Carlin, Chris Rock and Martin Lawrence, you know, when I started. And so that was really, really dope.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
i did i did a thing on daily show man this might have been year two day you might remember this you remember when i did the we took the black trump um i wore a trump wig and the basic theory was that you could take any trump line and it sounds like a rap song and we took a series of trump quotes and created a full rap song comprised of nothing but actual donald trump quotes i shot a music video for it
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And Martin Lawrence retweeted it. And then like then on Facebook typed the whole paragraph about why this is good and what like really broke down. This takes me back to when I was. And I was just like, wow, like that. Those those stand out like legit. I think that black Trump shit, I think it's still somewhere on YouTube or wherever. But I remember that one being one that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
that really make me feel good. I mean, the magazines are cool. I mean, they're going to rip you one day. They're going to like you the next. But when you get the respect of your peers and your people, you go see Chappelle at the stand, and he sees you in the room and goes, hey, man, go get on stage, please. That's more of a review and an assessment of your career and your worth within your craft.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You know what I'm saying? Like that to me, that will always mean more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
If Chappelle says get on this show where they're here to see me, what's higher than that? I think you're good enough that I will put you on stage in front of my audience. Like no comic is going to put on somebody who's going to lay a turd on the stage. So for me, that's the highest compliment that could be paid to a comedian.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Every prank call I've ever done. On the radio? Yeah, well, you know, for the people who don't know, I did mornings for a decade, probably amassed two, three, 400 prank phone calls over that time. I put out three CDs and then people were bootlegging me to death. Like, remember going viral over email? Like, back in the day, kids.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
When you liked something, you emailed it to your friend, and then they downloaded it. They downloaded a random file from a stranger. And so, like, my pranks have found a second life on TikTok now with all the young kids who found the bootlegs on YouTube. And I don't hate on it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, but it's also, I was 20 when I was doing those, 46. So people like will find them on TikTok. Hey man, you should do those again. I was cussing out black people. And like, there was a lady I called one time, she was in the, literally in the hospital attached to an EKG and I didn't hang up with her. We kept arguing. She could have died, bro. And so pranks are a young man's game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And I'm happy that people have found that part of my career. But that is the past. I'll never go back to it. I'll never do another prank. I think I did an episode of Crank Anchors 10 years ago. Even that felt weird. Put it on. I just. But I love that the kids have found it and laugh at it. There's young TikTokers that have reached out to me. Is it okay if I post it? Yeah, post it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I'm not going to copyright strike you. Monetize it. If you can figure out a way to get money off a joke I told 25 years ago, so be it. That's how I give back for all the bootlegging I did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Greatest Of All The Nuts (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Let's see. Every child's dream is to retire their parents. You ain't got to do this no more, mama. I got you. Not realizing that we're creating a disconnect for our parents. But I saw you work. I saw you bust your ass for five, six decades. And it's thankless. It's education. You ain't gonna make bank on it. So relax. You've done your best. Relax. I just talked to Trevor Noah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
We've got a penalty. Five minutes. Major asshole. Jeremy, right? Jeremy. Get out of me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
Well, it's yes, blindly. But in this case, Dan, to assist you here, in this case, it was not only blindly where it just happened at a happenstance or like a matter of a second. This was prolonged blindness of I'm going to chase this guy in his car for 11 miles while I shoot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
several shots out of a .40 caliber handgun into the car that also has his mom and his stepfather and the stepfather eventually getting struck with non-life-threatening shots. But that's where the attempted murder comes in. That's where all of these firearm charges and whatnot comes in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
But the issue is, and how to tie everything together, is the man who was accused of molesting his son, the parents who were in the car owned a daycare that the son went to. And that's kind of the connection point where they were all in the car. He went out there and tried to, again, avenge his son for what had happened. And the prolonged nature of 11 miles. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
And we're talking about, I believe, in California, that's probably through traffic. That's a very long stretch of road.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
It's really hard, especially if you get the jury pool of parents, to come back and be like, yeah, he was in the wrong there. By the law, yes, in the wrong. But there's got to be some sort of nuance to exactly what's going on where the matter of, again, I don't know the legalities of what happened on the other side, right, with the guy who was actually molesting his son.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
Right, so I don't know what the situation is with that as far as how long he's going to go to prison for. But if the guy whose son got molested and then acted in that way gets more prison time than the guy that molested the guy's son, there's some issues there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
The judge was incredibly lenient, too. He got time served the five years, but also time served on the back end because he was incarcerated for a majority of the last couple of years. But the judge even said it like this is a guy who did something that I think every parent would do. So the judge was very lenient.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
Absolutely. And here's his quote. What I did was not correct, Velasquez says. I understand that. I paid. I'll pay whatever as far as I have to do with I'll pay it all back. I don't think I can pay it back, but I can always learn from my mistakes and help others. It's just information that you never know anybody. Trust your kids. Have that open communication with them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Pitch Clock Returns
But the way I handled things was not the way to do it. We cannot pull the law into our own hands.

Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
You want to go eyes up in here? Classic Dan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
There you go. I don't understand. Why did this reporter not see a camera crew around you guys with microphones on you?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
Do they put out a retraction or a comment on this?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
That was bad. You recognized Akbar. I mean, it was a bad thing for everyone involved, right? That no one here who's of note was recognized and that journalism is clearly very, very dead.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
By the way, comparing this to Kobe versus Shaq is the most insane thing that's happened this entire segment. You're welcome.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
Should we get Akbar? Is this where we're at? Can we call it? Should we call it Akbar? Like we're celebrating getting to 10 games under 500. Like this is where we're at gloating. I'm ashamed. I'm ashamed of my fellow fans. It's a fun night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
If it happens behind a paywall at the Sun Sentinel, did it happen?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
What's an 80-year-old going to do, punch him? This is a ridiculous scenario in which neither person is actually going to fight the other. I'd love to see them fight. I really would.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
This is tough guy bullshit that they're both going back and forth. I'll fight him. I'll fight him. And neither one of them wants to actually fight the other.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
I would love for... Jeremy, please. I would love for everyone to just kind of stop being the guy that holds the other one back, and everyone just would be like, you know what, guys, go. Let's resolve this exactly how you guys want to, and see what happens there. Because neither one of them would actually fight the other one. Let them fight. See how it goes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
Because neither one of them will hit the other one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
I was fist pumping my own interview skills. He said this was better than my wedding day, he said to us. Yeah, we all believe that, Jeremy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Akbar Domestique
They're not taking the low road. But, like, when he puts out a tweet of Andrew Wiggins saying hi to all of his teammates and then puts something along the lines in the caption of, great to see a former player go and make up with his coach and teammates. Like, come on. You're not trying to take the high road.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Greg Cote's Top 5 Marches
I really hated how to be San Diego State. Such a scrappy, underdog program. They do everything the right way. But what we had to do was put their head on a stake and remind everybody who North Carolina is. And that's exactly what we did. We're on to Ole Miss.

I thought MJ was a good call, actually.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
Yes, they were raising this banner before an Illinois basketball game this weekend. And when they unveiled it, realized, oopsies, we hung it upside down. And everyone was really sad. And now, like you said, they've leaned into it. So happy ending, I suppose, but genuinely very funny to see.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
We have the athletic director from Illinois talking about it here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
No, this was before they leaned into it. But I was going to ask you, Dan, is it an apology if you say, obviously, I didn't raise the banner, but it's my fault? Like, he's throwing someone under the bus there, and they know who they are.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
As if anyone thought the athletic director was the one who put the little hooks on it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
I wasn't sure how to answer that. Thank you for having me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
He also played at Illinois for two seasons because he transferred from Texas Tech at I even saw an interview where he was like, I'm surprised. But that's cool. What are they doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
No, we talk about Illinois basketball all the time on this show. It's like one of our main beats. We get complaints all the time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
Men's college hoops. I mean, we spend a lot of time on it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
I was watching Kevin Hart take pictures with women much taller than him, which we also need to talk about. But we could start with the hockey.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Like a protest.

I didn't like that either, Billy. They should have done it on Saturday for tradition's sake. I know it was like a four-day thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
But it was a Sunday that felt like a Saturday because we had Monday off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
Apparently they aired the first ever SNL episode on Saturday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
But the thing that SNL has that a lot of, like, the TikTok comedians don't have is the A-list celebrities, which is why I think they leaned all the way into making the entire show. Just, like, look at all of these famous people that have played a role in what our show's been for the last 50 years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
Like, the entire audience was all, like, Kevin Costner sitting next to, like, Bad Bunny sitting next to Adam Driver next to Julie Louis-Dreyfus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
He's got weird vibes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
I liked most the montage of all of the fake advertisements, like the fake commercials for the fake, like the mom jeans, like all of those, and that super colon blow. That was a funny bit. And then they also did a bit at the end where they did an in memoriam for all of the characters and sketches over the years that are...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dan Will Not Respect Black History Month
not uh questionable makeup like child molestation problematic and they went category by category and i think that was like a funny way to laugh at themselves for some of the questionable things that they've done and they also blurred out every actor who was in blackface or brownface in that entire that's smart yeah i like what they did there um chappelle show key and peel um

Er war wahrscheinlich nicht da für das Rennen. Er hätte da für etwas anderes gewesen, oder? Nein. No, you went out for the race?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Ich glaube, er war letztes Jahr da und dann gab es Wetterverlust und das war wie ein Make-up-Date für Pitbull.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
The World Center of Racing in Daytona, Ich bin so glücklich, dass Billy da war, weil ich weiß, dass er ein Gearhead ist. Es ist nicht sein erster Daytona, er ist in Homestead gewesen. Ich bin mehr Daytona 500s als Superbowls.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Weil du weißt, es ist Pitbull. Und wir müssen darüber sprechen, was ein professioneller Pitbull ist. Er hätte sehr einfach gesagt, ich mache das nicht. In der Tat ist er nicht mehr mit Trackhouse Racing, aber er ist ein Profi. Auch wenn Mutter Natur letztes Jahr auf den Weg ging, wie er berühmt hat, sie können nicht, sie werden nicht, sie werden nie stoppen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Schaut mal, wie viele Leute Pippel gerade beteiligt hat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Impossible. I was told in my NASCAR group chat, which Billy, if you want in, let me know, that Billy had the best interview with Joey Logano anyone's ever seen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Look at the access that fans have in a NASCAR race. You tried doing that at Formula 1. Es ist wirklich verrückt. Jeder weiß, dass es aufgeräumt ist. Das ist wie Minuten bevor das Rennen anfängt. Minuten bevor der Präsident Zugang zu der Speedway hat.

You guys really had private access. This is the biggest crew anyone's ever had for an event. Yeah. This is amazing content. Where's the Logano interview?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
I'm being told the Logano interview is a YouTube exclusive. I'm just gonna watch that on YouTube. Thanks. Tast like Miller time! Bis zum nächsten Mal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Ein paar Jahre her, unter Chip Kelly, gab es einen Moment.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Logano hat eigentlich eine glückliche Medienkarriere. Ich weiß nicht, wie gut er Billy interviewen wird.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Lugano ist der Kup-Series-Champion, reiner Kup-Series-Champion, kontroversialer Kup-Series-Champion von letztem Jahr, aber ich denke, von dem, was ich gehört habe, war Billy ein bisschen verwirrt, was für ein Champion er war. Ich hatte diese Information gerade vor. Er war so, hey, denkst du, du wirst hier zurückgehen? Und er war so, was meinst du, hier? Er war so, ja, zurückgehen, hier.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Er hat die Daytona 500 nicht gewonnen. Das war es.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Oh, the Ryan Priest thing? Did you guys see that? I don't know if we have that. I'll give videos some time. But either way, these next-gen cars, you'll see sometimes when they're getting real close to one another, the flaps will go up. And that's to keep these cars grounded. Es ist ein Problem bei NASCAR, besonders bei Super Speedways, weil sie so schnell reisen. Die Fahrzeuge fliegen in die Luft.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Es gab wirklich unheimliche Rettungen bei der Daytona 500. Sie gingen in die Grenzen, verletzten die Leben der Leute und die Gruppe in Gefahr. Also will jeder diese Fahrzeuge auf dem Boden halten. Der Brian Priest hatte letztes Jahr eine unheimliche Rettung, in der die Daytona ein paar Gras auf dem Infield-Bereich zerstört hat und sie auf dem Infield-Bereich zerstört hat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
weil das Gras auch die Fahrt überflüssig gemacht hat. Aber hier ist Ryan Preece, der 60er-Fahrer. Er fließt überflüssig für das zweite Jahr in Daytona. Und es war horrifisch, live zu sehen. Es ist unglaublich, dass diese Jungs einfach aufstehen und...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Wenn du dir das ausdrücken kannst, was vor 24 Jahren mit Dale Earnhardt passiert ist, was eher unheimlich aussieht als das, und wir haben Dale verloren, das ist einfach verrückt.

No, typically if a van pulls up next to me, I try to avoid it. Yeah.

I mean, he is the son of Bill Elliot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
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 and one of my favorite pastimes is to crack open a Miller light and enjoy myself some Miller time during the winter time because when there's a brisk chill in the air, it just makes everything right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
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, Tast like Miller time! Bis zum nächsten Mal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
Ich denke, Kenny Chesney. Das ist meistens die Wortsammlung, die ich mache. Riley Cooper, Kenny Chesney. Ich verabschiede ihn nur mit dieser Sache. Er war ein Teil von dem ganzen Gators-Team, was wirklich lustig ist im Hintergrund.

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

Und dann war es das eine Mal, wo er im Trainingcamp war und er sagte, ich fühle mich nicht mehr so gut, Tom Brady, Bill Belichick.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Demi Lovatbros
We've covered this a couple of times, but I thought you were going to kill it in New England. You patterned your game after Wes Welker and you're the quickest man alive. And I'd seen you in Cleveland. I'm like, finally, the world's going to learn how good Andrew Hawkins is going to be. He's going to become a superstar in New England. Was it just not going that way in camp?

It makes a lot of sense, Dan, and I appreciate you using my name in that. Okay. That's very smart.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
Yeah, you're absolutely right. And the one thing that you pointed out is they never really signed players to long term extensions. And that's what they're doing now. They have built a core. And I said maybe three or four years ago that this team will actually win a cup in the next five years. I got laughed out of the studio and they managed to make two cup runs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
So to see this team be this successful right now. Yeah, I think that this community can actually build around this team and become bigger fans than obviously the Marlins and right now maybe even the Dolphins.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Are The Florida Panthers The Biggest Thing In Town?
Ho, ho, ho, mofos. Everything is all right right now. Just waiting for everybody to show up with their new and unwrapped toys here at Vivo at Dolphin Mall. I've already gotten started with this bluey plush doll and this football for the kids.

Ich denke, das Schwierigste an Strickland ist auch, dass er immer so ein Reise-Mann-Typ war. Und dann hatte er diesen Moment, wo er Israel Adesanya in einer überraschenden Art und Weise gewonnen hat. der gekocht wird, das ist eine andere Geschichte für einen anderen Tag, aber er wird jetzt mit Alex Pareda arbeiten, also werden wir sehen, was da passiert.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Aber wir können alle sehen, oder wir haben alle gesehen, wenn du den Sport folgst, das Video und das Visual von Sean Strickland, im Grunde genommen, schreit er an Izzy Adesanya, wie das ist es, das ist alles, was du hattest und an diesem Punkt hat er sich aufgehört, ging auf Rogan, sprach über seine Kindheit, es war ein bisschen so, okay, warte einen Sekunden, es gibt hier einen Star-Turn für Sean Strickland und dann hat jeder gemerkt, oh, warte einen Sekunden, er ist eine verrückte Person.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Das Problem, das die Leute jetzt haben, ist, dass diese Jungs Krieger sind. Diese Jungs haben ihr Körper, ihr Leben, alles auf der Linie, wenn du in den Oktagon gehst. Viele Kämpfer, viele Trainer. Wir schauen auf Shawns Leistung über den Wochenende und sagen, ja, du hast deinen Nase gebrochen. Das passiert bei jedem Kampf. Du fängst an zu kämpfen, du fängst an zu drücken.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Es sah so aus, als ob er seinen Fuß aus dem Gas genommen hätte und gesagt hätte, okay, ich kann Drikus nicht auf dem Boden schießen, ich kann ihn nicht aufstehen, weil ich ihn nicht kriegen kann. Was mache ich? Ich werde nur versuchen, Haymakers zu schießen und hoffe, dass etwas landet. Und Dana wusste, dass das in den Kampf geht.

We're adults here, are we not? Mit der Situation von Thug Nancy hat Bryce Mitchell in einem Podcast viele verrückte Dinge gesagt. Auch Sean Strickland, der da ist, hat gesagt, dass Bryce nur ein Idiot ist. Er ist unbefugt. Er weiß nicht, was er macht. Für ihn ist die Linie da. Mike, was ist die pünktliche Maßnahme, die du für einen Sport benötigst? Das ist kein tägliches Sport.

Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Das Problem ist, dass es wichtig ist, auch in diesem Sport zu gewinnen. Du kannst nicht derjenige sein, der seinen Arsch gekackt bekommt und dann alles, was du willst, verspüren lässt, was nicht sauer ist. Und dann denkst du dir, oh, es ist ein Star-Turn. Nein, warte mal, du musst immer gewinnen. Der Grund, warum Sean Strickland in diesen Positionen war, ist, weil er Champion geworden ist.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Weil er gesagt hat, okay, ich bin ein gut genuger Kämpfer, um Division-Champion zu werden. Doug Nasty ist nicht das. Er hat seinen Arsch gekackt.

Ich denke, das, was mit Sean Strickland zu denken ist, ist das hier. Es ist tatsächlich viel ruhiger als letztes Mal, als wir es hatten, als er das erste Mal gegen Drakus Du Plessis kämpfte. Als er Champ war. Als die Leute herausgefunden haben, oh, warte mal, Sean Strickland ist ein absolut verrückter Mensch und sagt Dinge, die die Leute nicht in Mikrofone sagen.

Ein Jahr später machte er das gleiche, aber auf einem anderen Kontinent, auf einer anderen Seite des Globes, der nicht nach Amerika zurückgekommen ist. Es gab also viele australische Medien, die gesagt haben, dass man diesen Jungen bitte rausknocken soll. Ich denke, dass wir hier noch etwas hinzufügen wollen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
Ja, Dana White hat die australische Medien besucht, aber die Headline und die Frontpage machten einen Backtrack zu Dana being on a podcast with the Australian Prime Minister in which the opinion piece of the writer was saying that he was made sick of Dana White and the Prime Minister, the Premier is what they call it over there, being on a podcast together.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Dana White and the UFC
So I think Dana was calling them the P-Word in regards to how do you feel like legitimately sick that I'm on a podcast with the Prime Minister. I think that's kind of where the disconnect is.

Here's the crazy thing about my episode on Shaq's podcast. That was the last 10 minutes of the podcast. We talked about everything but basketball for an hour. And then just at the end, hey, do you think Biggs will evolve? I'll elbow Wimby in the mouth and knock his teeth out and make him quit. And I was just like, hey, he played. I didn't. I just need to be quiet on this one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
to be able to just sit next to him never got a chance to work with them but to just sit and listen to stories of his time and tuskegee on the radio to his time and every wild story from his world famous tom joiner cruises which is how he raises the money for his foundation um that was I mean, next to catching a game with my father, which I'll never be able to do, it was really dope, man.

Being that that floral sweatsuit, I'm sure, costs more than my salary at CNN, I will simply say, nice outfit, Mr. Joyner. That's all I will say. Like, there's certain outfits where it looks so, it just looks so expensive, you can't even say nothing about it. You just go, I would never wear it. It's the great Bruce Bruce would say, it looks good on you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I don't know if I return that season. I don't know if I return at all that season. But Tracy Morgan is like the unofficial mascot of the Knicks. Like, it's Tracy and Spike Lee, I guess, to a degree. So you got to have both of them back in the game. I'm just glad that...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
When it happened with Tracy, like, immediately there was caring concern about him and his health and making sure he's recovering. Because we weren't always like that as a society. Like, if you had a public health episode, we would just say crack. We would just assume crack and just say you're a crackhead and he's a drunk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And I feel like we finally progressed as a society to a point where we can just guess maybe it's Ozempic.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You know what I thought for sure? I thought for sure they were going to take, like, his vomit and put it in, like, little souvenir vials. Yeah, you have to. And then, like... Call that like the vomit game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I was checking the stats to see what the Knicks record was post vomit, but it's not solid enough to directly point to the vomit being a catalyst for them getting things getting momentum going into the playoffs. I think if the Knicks had to Tracy Morgan had to vomit every home game for the Knicks to win, I think he would happily come out there and ruin his stomach lining for the team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
He is built like Grimace. I love you, Tracy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
It's Spike. He got caught up. It's all right. No, because here's the thing. You get on this show and talk, and then I'm just thinking of what the comments would be. What about Spike? How do you forget Spike Lee? You ain't black. That's why when you was on Jeopardy, you missed that question about geography, man. I hate black people.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Like, I'm not sure if I completely agree, but this is not the place to disagree. I'll just put it that way. Like, you know, Shaq earned the right to take these shots. I don't know why he does it all the time. I will say that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And then I'm in an Essence magazine article, and then it just goes, oh, and the griot is talking about me, going, Roy Wood disrespects Spike Lee, and then it's all awkward.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Ben Stiller don't even stand up during the game. He can't be the mascot. He's a super fan. I give Ben Stiller credit because he was checking the score at award shows. So that's a diehard fan. Ben Stiller ain't standing up like Spike Lee with his hand on his hips like a black mama on the porch looking for her child. Show me that picture, and I'll correct myself. Wow, doubling down.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You remember when Spike was standing like this? And my camera's housing. You know the picture. It's the legendary Spike picture. Yeah. Show me Ben Stiller like that, and I'll say Ben Stiller's the mascot of the Knicks. Until then, it's Spike Lee, Tracy Morgan, 1B.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Let's wait until next time. I will say that I like what the Cubs have been doing in spite of their record. There are a couple games above 500. It's a little early, but they're third in the league in runs scored per average right now. And I think that they're doing that without the torpedo bats. Like, if I'm not mistaken, the Cubs, yeah, there we go. The Cubs got 84 runs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Most runs scored, not average. Most runs scored. Yankees 78, Cardinals 66. So the Cubs are hitting the ball good. You just need the pitching to come together a little bit. So just put your money on them right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Love y'all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But, you know, it was fun to sit with him in his element, but you could tell just being right across from him that he really is annoyed with the way the game is being played currently.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
That was my first time meeting him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, no, it was cool to just talk basketball with him for a second, but my question that I didn't get to in the room with him would have been like, everybody wants 90s basketball, but if you got 90s basketball without 90s referees, you're still like Shaq would be teed up and tossed before the second quarter. If you're talking about...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
elbowing Wimby in the mouth and then taking Chet Holmgren to the hole every time. I don't know if we're going to ever be able to play like that again. I wonder if aggression to a degree has been kind of legislated out. And to everybody else's point on that podcast, these kids now, there's no benefit to being the murderous, killer, death stare college basketball player anymore.

That's going to mess up your NIL money. Nobody's going to let you do Experian tax app commercials. If you're the mean, growling person. So I don't know if that mentality will even exist in basketball at the lower levels in another five years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I think I think I don't know how you salary cap it per se, but I think that there's a very good way to keep this down. I think it was Carmelo Anthony on his podcast that said two year minimums. But, you know, Mello was also talking about just take the student part out of it and just let these schools hire, basically, athletic mercenaries to play for them, to represent the school.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I do think that's the eventuality of where NIL is headed in another 10 years if we don't rein it in. But the idea of locking a student in for at least two years If you transfer, I think it's something that's fair. I don't think... We're never going to go back to the old days. So this idea of Mount St. Mary's punching up and beating... Done. That stuff's gone. Mount St.

Mary's got to get their money up and figure out how to sell cocaine on the side of the university. I do feel like...

Cuervo.

Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
you have to keep the money in the sport that's fair to the kids what's happening with nil is that it's all of the outside cash and all the outside influences that are changing all of this when you got kids hawking carter here's a bigger question about nil has anybody been influenced to buy anything from any of these children you've seen on tv
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I'm not here to mess up your bag, but seeing Flage Johnson tell me I can get my credit straight, I know my credit bad, Flage. Get your money, girl. But also, you weren't going to influence me any more than the next person was to buy the thing. Nine times out of ten, it's word of mouth.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I think that College Hoops is going to become D1 and D2 in a sense, where you're going to have have and have nots, and that's just what you got to get used to. You just got to hope that one school has a loyal dummy who doesn't transfer because his daddy went there or something stupid.

We got the semifinals tonight. I won last month. It's fun because you're raising money. I'm raising money for ICME Incorporated, a nonprofit in Birmingham that promotes literacy in children.

Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
you can read you don't go to jail they got the statistics to prove it so you're excited because you're helping people but you also don't want to be the one that's embarrassed um i can't say i can't say whether or not i won or not tonight but i there was a question i got wrong that was extremely easy that i know tomorrow morning my social media mentions are going to it's going to be some chit chat and accountability that's going to be needed for me for getting that particular question wrong
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You can't prepare for it. Either you're dumb or you're not, and it's too late to cram. Like, what are you gonna do, learn all the solar system moons of Jupiter before you get out there in front of Ken Jennings? And I tried to cram, because I know my soft spots. Greek and Roman mythology, because there's no reason for us to ever learn that in the first place. I'm not good with Shakespeare.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I'm not good with the Bible. And I'm shaky on U.S. vice presidents. Like when you get into Spiro Agnew, heads of chief of staffs, and who was the eighth dude on the Watergate tape, that type of stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I know. And that's why I feel confident now. All I need to know is, like, what a raccoon is and recognize two statues.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I don't know if I can give away category. Can I give away? I'll say this. I don't think you can. I need to know more geography. I'll just say that. And the thing about Jeopardy, Jeopardy tricks you because it's how they word the question and the amount of time you have to answer it. And the pressure of it forces you to say something stupid. And it's not that you don't know it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
It's that the way you worded the question confused me. Like, it's like when you, I don't know. Remember, Dan, remember you come home late three in the morning and your girl is like,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
so you were with the strippers and you're like what is it ah so you were like no you didn't give me a chance to and it's too late you should have just said were you strip club yes or no but they don't frame the question that way they frame it in a way where your brain can't process it and then you look dumb and then strangers heckle you
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, yeah, but it's fine. I was happy to do it. I had more fun at Jeopardy than I did Will of Fortune or Pyramid. No, I had the most fun at Jeopardy because Will of Fortune, you're just setting up the next person to win, and it's luck. You've got to hope they screw up and then you get to solve the puzzle. It's got to kind of fall in your lap.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
pyramid if you lose you're sitting across from the stranger who you cost 50k and they're a little mad and you know like that that i feel kind of bad about because that's not for charity that's like a regular person who needs that money. So I didn't like the pressure of that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Um, no, but in the first round, they had historically black colleges as one of the categories. Oh brother. I was licking my chops.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Dan, it would be like if you were on Celebrity Jeopardy and the category was Cuban stuff. Just a layup. Just, oh, my God, it was beautiful. Then the next category was chess. And all I do is play chess with my son. And I was just like, yes. I ran that damn, I ran those two categories back to back. Start doubling and tripling down in double jeopardy. And that's how I won, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Because I went to a black college. Both of my parents graduated from a black college. If I don't get these questions right, I have to leave the black race immediately.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, Phoebe Robinson. Phoebe Robinson was there, too. And Phoebe got one of them right, too. And I was like, good. Make sure you get one right, too, so that they know you know something. You know, you got to let Phoebe get one, too. You gave her one, right, Roy? Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I don't know if there's any other race of people that are under more pressure on a quiz show than black people to be accountable to their own race when it is a topic inherent to their race. Like, as a black man on Jeopardy answering questions about black colleges, I'll be an article in Essence magazine. Like, they will slander... So I don't know if any other race has that type.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Like, if you're an Italian and the category is tomato sauces, like, is that pressure? I don't know, that felt racist, but you get what I'm trying to say.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
We made a mention on it on the most recent episode. And what Amber said on our show was essentially that she intended to go at both sides. But as the country started to devolve, she felt like it was hard to ignore people getting sent to El Salvador and the recession and the measles outbreak. She just felt like there was so many things going on that to oscillate looks both ways.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
She had no interest in doing that anymore. She wanted to laser focus on the administration and the correspondence people. You know, they said, well, we We can't have you do that." And once that was clear and in the open, Amber said that she just would respectfully pull out of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Because I think the thing, you know, everybody calls the press corps, you know, cowards for their decision to not have a comedian there, to not hit both sides. But I really feel like, in a way, They're in a rock and a hard place. Is it a sucker decision? Yeah, I think so.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
But I also think that what's not being considered is the potential backlash on the backside from the Trump administration to the White House pool reporters who were there, who were supposed to be honoring and celebrating. They're probably going to lose access. Potentially, if you dare hold this event where they trash me, I'm going to give you less access to me on the backside of that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
And then this whole idea of accountability and calling out what's going on. How much how much are you compromising your ability as a journalist to hold this administration accountable for the next three and a half years? if you let Amber get up there and tell them jokes. And you don't know that. And so that's the juggling act that I think they were weighing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I hate that comedy was removed because comedy is the way that you get people to pay attention to all of the other stuff that you want honored and celebrated, you know, on that day. But, you know, the event at its core, it is about honoring journalism. So I just hope that we're able to still bring some attention to the people. But, you know, I stand with Amber.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I support my co-hosts, you know, a million percent over. But that's just a it's a rock and a hard place right now. And it's funny because, you know, I always thought Republicans were the ones that could take a joke.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
Yeah, but keep in mind, I did the event under Biden, so that was a little bit easier in terms of, is this a room that's ready to laugh and can you attack both sides? It's like, yeah, I could. I mean, there were still kids in cages, but other than that, you can still find the laughs around the chaos.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
and that administration, there was... It's a room where, at best, you only go and get half the room at any given time because the other half can't laugh because they don't think you're funny or they're sitting with their boss that you made the joke about. So it's already a weird room to begin with. And I think, also,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I think part of why the correspondence dinner works is because Republicans and elected officials all show up from both sides. So also keep in mind, when Amber stepped out, when they rescinded the offer from Amber, Trump was talking about doing his own competing event the same night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
So if you have no Republicans in the room and you have someone on stage that's only bashing Republicans, then they're going to be able to flip and use that politically to do whatever they want to, you know, control the narrative about what the media, the messaging in media. You know, it's a slippery thing, man. So how do you do both sides if both sides aren't even in the room?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
You know, that kind of removes the roast. The roast element of it requires you to be here because I have to do this to your face.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
I grew up on the school bus listening to the Tom Joyner morning show and, you know,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: The Cowboy Hat Made of Bacon (feat. Roy Wood Jr.)
for what tom joiner did over his 30 years in syndicated radio just taking money from his foundation putting kids through college i think when he retired in 2016 2017 i think the number was like 30 or 40 000 like you could take every person that received money for college from tom joiner and fill a professional sports stadium with like

USA versus Canada for the Four Nations Championship. Looking at the injury front, Austin Matthews with an upper body injury and the Kachuk boys both had lower body injuries. They're expected to play.

Cruise ships. Okay, first a quick disclaimer, more like a preemptive strike. Way back in 2019, I did a Back In My Day about theme cruises, which are awful. Now I'm here to talk about an even bigger and more pervasive trend in the cruise industry. If you've seen any of the many TV ads for cruises lately, you know what I'm talking about. It's all about the action and excitement now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
You see any of these ads? Just watching them makes me exhausted. People dive bombing feet first down terrifying vertical water flumes, bungee jumping out over the ocean, surfing simulators, tidal waves, indoor skydiving, scaling a rock, Zip lines. What am I, in a marine boot camp? I didn't sign up for a thrill ride. I don't want to compete. I want to relax on my cruise.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Get my money's worth on the drink card and doze on the deck in a chaise lounge with a dog-eared paperback on my lap. Preferably pride of a lion. Can't even do that. Nowadays, the decks are a raucous boulevard with serpentining conga lines of dancers in Carmen Miranda hats and ping pong tables. Tell me the genius who thought that up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
A ping pong ball weighs less than a tenth of an ounce versus gale force ocean wind. You can't relax anymore on a cruise deck because the ship has jogging trails as health nuts who forgot they were on vacation are huffing it past, constantly checking their smart watch to see if they're on pace. On pace for what? To be a more fit corpse? And why are there gyms on cruise ships in the first place?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
It's an oxymoron. It's like having a cocktail lounge in a synagogue. I don't need a gym to work out. I'm doing 12-ounce curls with a Miller Lite bottle. You won't catch Greg Cody doing anything more strenuous on a cruise than playing a couple of holes of mini golf, watching my wife lose at bingo, getting annoyed during some trivia contest, or praying at the roulette wheel.

One other thing, it's not a Broadway or a Cirque du Soleil. I'm on a big, slow boat. I don't need a concert or a show production. Just give me an open buffet and a bar every 25 feet. Make cruise ships dull again. I'm Greg Cody, and that's how it was back in my day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Yeah, cocktail lounge, I believe I said.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Right, yeah, eight or nine months, yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
I didn't know they had a gym.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Or a fourth book, I should say. Yeah, counting fins at 50, which I don't really count.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
If you had, you would count it. Exactly. Yes. They've approached me about another book. Nice. Yeah, I'm thinking about it. Look at you. Yeah. My plate's a little full right now, but we'll see.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
I mean, I will thank the audience to the end of the earth. They've made all the books successful, including Stu Gatz's book, Personal Record Book. The great thing about books is that they age well. You put out a book and it really never gets old. People are reading it all the time, right? It's a great bathroom book.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
No. I love the name Ed, so I'm going to give you a special dispensation and waive your fine. Really? Yeah, I'm going to waive the fine. Do you have that power?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
All right, put in a buck. Call Venmo. That's not how it works. Call Venmo? Yeah, you know, send Venmo a buck. Eddie Ballgame. Right. Call Venmo. Whoever Venmo is. Venmo, I assume it was somebody's name. Send him a buck. You don't need two bucks. Because I've waived a dollar.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
I'm not fined according to this fine system. I'm not charged by this. Oh, well, you should be. I mean, that's absolutely a fine when you misname someone. Especially one of your oldest friends. Yeah, I mean, Ed. Nobody calls me Ed. Well, my wife does sometimes, but we won't get into that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Way to speak for me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
I have an approach to do Broadway, but that's a whole other story. Continue. You'd be good at it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
In respect for Ron, not wanting to interrupt him, I murmured. I did a low murmur.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
It was half a mutter. A mutt. We knew what he was thinking. I mutted for a dog, get it? Mutt? Mutter? Dog?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Right. Out of respect to Ron. The dog's been taught to take something that the owner gives it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
You talked over him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
It was a personal aside, not meant for the air. I muttered.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
I love Funyuns because they're super salty and super crunchy, which is what I love in a snack.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Do they have to be thin?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
I hate the thick onion ring, though. When the onion is like that, it's... You hate that? Yeah. Yeah, too much. It's a different appetizer. You've got to have the thin...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
It works with the blooming onion. The blooming onion, that was good. Those were little pieces, though. Still is. No, no, no, no. They were pretty thick. But they were small, though. They weren't big, thick rings. Yeah, they weren't rings. Yeah, they were like petals. Yeah, they were petals. Exactly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Exactly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Oh, nice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
Let's go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: THE RETURN OF BACK IN MY DAY! (feat. Ron Magill)
That is the truth. I sent A.J. Brown a whole box full of Pride of Alliance.

It's funny you did that. Wow.

But why is there a war? No, it was a civil war and they went all the way back to the roots of the family. Like, you can tell what happened here. Danny McBride got extra high one day. Like, super high. Like... Höher als er wahrscheinlich je gewesen wäre, was viel sagt. Und er ist so, was, wenn wir ein Civil War-Episode machen und es ist Bradley Cooper?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Es war seltsam.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Ich denke, ist das die Lüge, dass sie uns mit dem ersten Episode verabschiedet haben? Ist das der Lächeln, hey, wir haben Bradley Cooper für ein Episode und wir spielen es direkt die ganze Zeit?

Du denkst, er würde aufstehen? Das ist eine gute Theorie. Da geht 30 von meinen Minuten. Ich habe 30 von meinen Minuten auf das verpasst. Es war ein bisschen über das. Und ich war einfach so verrückt daran, weil mein TV-Zeit jetzt prekär ist.

Nein, das ist ein gesundes Skepsis, weil wir gesehen haben, dass die Quarterbacks ein gutes Bounce-Back-Jahr haben und dann den Markt schicken und einen schrecklichen Deal signen. Das ist ein seltsamer Zeitpunkt, um für Seattle zu resetten. Sie waren ein schmutziges Team, das im Playoff-Mix war. Aber ich glaube, sie haben ihr Team evaluiert. Das ist wahrscheinlich unser Seelen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Also, wir müssen das alles zerstören.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Nicht, um noch einmal seinen Namen zu nennen. Nein, das glaube ich nicht. Nur weil ich Geno Smith schon länger verwendet habe. Er ist ohne Zweifel jünger als Geno Smith. Es ist ein guter Versuch, zu sagen, egal wie furchtbar oder furchtbar du auf Geno bist, wir haben wahrscheinlich sein Bestes gesehen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Er ist ein länger in den Händen Quarterback, er ist eine Stopgap-Solution, er war eine Stopgap-Solution für Seattle, weil niemand jemals gedacht hat, auch während er diese Jahre hatte, dass sie den Typ des Teams hatten, mit dem er sie zum nächsten Niveau bringen könnte. Also ist er nur ein Jahr lang ein Lohn für Las Vegas. Und ich weiß nicht,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Ich glaube, weil der Unterschied in der Zeit ist, würde ich Sam Darnold lieber haben als Gino Smith. Gino Smith hatte ein wirklich gutes Jahr vor drei Jahren.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
I'm with you. I stayed out of it because just to show before, I was arguing that Tyler Lockett, kind of sneaky, has been just as many years, like their numbers are really damn close. You could make an argument that over the course of five years, Tyler Lockett, while he didn't fit the profile conventionally, was their actual number one target.

Wir wissen, dass Antonio Brown verrückt war, bis er Pittsburgh verlassen hat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Und das ist ein Upgrade in Talent, richtig? Ich denke, viele Leute positionieren sich so, aber ich meine, Brees Hall und Garrett, nein, nein, nein, ich meine Aaron Rodgers, um zu Pittsburgh zu gehen. Najee Harris, ich glaube, die Abwechslung von DK Metcalf macht das etwas wichtiger, aber ich mag Wilson als Wide Receiver besser als ich DK oder Pickens mag.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Ich mag Brees Hall besser als Running Back als ich Najee Harris mag. Harris ist auch raus, er ist nicht mehr da.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Nachi Harris ist ein Charger? Old face, new place, that happened. There was something refreshing about yesterday with the X-Outage. That even front offices were complaining about it because they weren't working with all the information. Because you would get an alert and you wouldn't see the whole thing. You'd try to click the tweet, it wouldn't expand because X had all these issues.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
It was a throwback. They were breaking news on television for folks yesterday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
I have a question though. Dan did the thing that I don't Ich glaube nicht, dass es akkurat ist. Er hat gesagt, dass man Aaron Rodgers und seine Mannschaften aufrufen soll. Was für eine verrückte Aussage. Er hat letztes Jahr 11 Spiele gespielt. Er war schlecht. Er ist fünf Jahre älter als Russell Wilson. Er ist auch ein schlechter Quarterback als Russell Wilson. Wenn man sich QBR anschaut.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Was machen wir hier? Wenn wir vergleichen und wir schauen auf das Alter und wir projizieren für die Zukunft und wir schauen, was sie am liebsten gemacht haben, war Russell Wilson besser. Zwei Spiele gegen die Miami Dolphins haben euch alle verrückt?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Ich bin ein bisschen überrascht. Was machen wir? Hier ist ein älterer Star. Ein viel älterer Star.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Ich sage nicht, dass es nicht eine schwierige Entscheidung ist, um zu gewinnen. Du weißt die Pros und Cons, aber je mehr du es praktisch anschaust, um Nummern zu zählen, I'm not even talking about off-field headaches. It doesn't make sense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
He has fallen off completely since trying to force a ball to Devontae Adams and missing a wide-open receiver underneath in the playoffs against the San Francisco 49ers. He's fallen off a cliff. And on top of that, he tore his Achilles. This doesn't make any sense.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Eine andere Sache, die du mit Aaron Rodgers anrufst, ist, hey, was macht dich am komfortabelsten? Al Lazard macht das. Nathaniel Hackett macht das. Der Typ hat, er ist sein eigenes schlimmster Feind, weil er so viele mediocre Leute zu Erfolg gebracht hat, dass sie es nie anders sehen würden. McCarthy, all diese OCs, die Jobs bekommen haben. Fatt Nummer 80.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Er hat einfach alle hochgeheizt, bis zu dem Punkt, dass sein Geist geformt hat, dass das, wer ich bin, ist. Gib mir diese mediocre Leute. Stattdessen. Hopefully Tomlin is different. If they do bring him in, I actually do think Tomlin would be different and I can see how it could work. Do I trust Aaron Rodgers more to not lose me a Mike Tomlin game plan than I trust Russell Wilson?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
That's the conversation I guess folks should be having.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Das ist einer der schlechtesten Fits für das Team. Weil der Turnover. Sie müssen in den Margen gewinnen. Sie können nicht den Ball überstehen. Und Jameis wird es überstehen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
It is a big number.

Damn, we are such Aaron Rodgers jilted lovers. He was our favorite of all time. And he hurt us repeatedly. And we just want to believe he was the best version of himself. But I think we got to accept who he is now.

Erinnerst du dich an das Video von Alec Baldwin im Gericht, als sie einen Beobachter überprüfen, der ein paar gute Dinge zu sagen hatte über Alec und an einem Punkt ... Dann warum nennst du ihn einen Blitzsucker? Und er nimmt seinen Kopf schnell hoch, das war die einzige Reaktion, die er hatte. That was Rob Thompson's look after the third home run.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

No, I saw an unfortunate video of a Trump impersonator ambushing him outside of his apartment to ask him about killing somebody. It didn't seem like a fun life.

That's also like In augmented reality. They put people in these situations. Reality shows. I'm with Greg. I want to harken back to a day when people stopped being polite and started getting real.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Which is why I don't need reality shows. Ich habe sie komplett ausgeschnitten. Ich schaue keine Realität an. Was ich mache, ist, Leute auf Social Media zu folgen. Das ist genug von einer Realität. Ich konsumiere Speed via Clips. Ich denke, okay, das ist mein Realitäts-Superstar, dieser YouTube-Streamer. Ich denke, das ist wirklich, wo die Realität weg ist.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Und es gibt diese Realität-Typen-Shows auf YouTube. Das gesagt, es gibt die Wanderpump-Ruhe und all diese sehr populären Shows. Die Kardashians sind immer noch Realität-TV-Gold, aber es macht nichts für mich.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Ich brauche keine Paul-Brothers-Show und ich bin sicher, dass es super erfolgreich wird. Es ist auf Max. Ich brauche es persönlich nicht, weil sie immer sind. Sie sind wirklich immer da. Yeah, their whole life is a reality show. So why do you need a reality show about...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
And Jersey Shore. I think in terms of building an economy that set up generational wealth for that family and all the kids, it's a Kardashians.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Ich habe keine Zeit für das. Wie hast du Zeit? Du hast ein Kind. Wie hast du Zeit für Realitätsserien?

Was für ein Punkt in meinem Leben? Ich habe die letzte Saison von White Lotus gesehen. Ich habe es genossen. Ich habe meine Frau gesagt, mach es ohne mich. Ich habe keine Zeit. Indian Wells wird es nicht selbst sehen. Ich habe basically drei Dinge pro Woche. Es ist Hockey auf den zweiten TV's. Wo ich zoniert bin, was auch immer auf dem Hauptschirm ist, ist mein Weihes Domain. Cyclone Mondays.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
Das war auf dem zweiten Screen. Ich musste aus dem Weg gehen für Big City Greens, weil meine Tochter ein Terrorist ist mit diesem Haupt-TV. Ich habe einfach mein Leben geschlossen. Ich kann nichts folgen. Ich habe Indian Wells, wenn ich um 2.30 Uhr aufwache, um Mon Feast zu sehen, das wird immer für mich da sein. Ich habe drei und eine halbe Stunde TV und ich spiele und schaue Left Turns.

This is a dangerous game, Righteous Gemstones. And I'm sorry to be going at our partners over at Max. But I love this show. This is one of the few shows that I've been like, let me binge this one. I'm in. What you did to me on that first episode was wrong. Please don't do it to me for a second episode. I need Walton Goggins. I need Baby Billy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Jilted Lovers of Aaron Rodgers
The talent budget definitely got blown on Bradley Cooper because there wasn't a single other actor in that episode that I recognized and that's hard to do for an HBO show.

Er ist definitiv Top 20, sicher. Ich denke, er sollte in Ordnung sein, aber er scheint auch Ich weiß nicht, warum. Er macht es so, als wäre es ein Bedürfnis und er will es nicht tun. Ich weiß nicht, ob er uns bitten will, es zu tun, oder ob er uns sagt, ja, du musst es wirklich tun. Aber das ist eine coole Sache. Und für irgendeinen Grund macht er es so, als wäre es ein Wunsch für ihn.

I would have let Ethan in. If it was up to me, the door would be wide open. Saloon doors, that's my policy. Ethan doesn't get paid, he just gets to be in all the group chats. Gets paid in vibes.

Nein, aber wir machen nur Momente. Sind die Momente in Miami zu haben? Und müssen sie bei der Heimteam sein? Weil das ist Shohei Otani's 50-50-Game-Count, weil das in Miami war. Das ist ein Klassiker, Billy. Aber er war ein Besucher. Klassiker, Billy. Ich frage nur.

It's like a strictly Miami thing. From the other lane or from behind you?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
You've got to mess that horn like there's no tomorrow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Is that going around them?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
To be fair, these bicyclists.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
entitled hey man don't act like there isn't death machines all around you you're like i'm protected by the law like these people don't care man i don't that's what i don't like like i get it like this is a bike lane or whatever but also you have to understand but you know they could kill you at any moment right and once you have that appropriate fear you start to bicycle a little bit differently but they don't they they're like i have the right of way i'm like okay
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Yeah, I know that guy. He's on an electric bike, too. By the way, if you're on an electric bike, guess what? You're not a bicyclist anymore. You're a motorist. Anything goes at that point.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
It's like a seven-lane highway.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Dude, I've been trapped in this circle of death. I have too, yes. 45 minutes of just going around and around.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
See, show hasn't changed. I'm glad we emptied that. What a hot start to that clip.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
It's horrible. Jessica, I have... solutions for you. Number one, the horn. Use it, and use it a lot. Channel that energy right into your palm and then . And the best one, I cannot condone someone getting out of the lane and around you at a left turn. That just sounds crazy. But what I can say is there are a few joys in life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
They're quite as exhilarating as watching that light and in the fraction of a second after it turns green, because I like seeing the head of the driver in front of me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Okay, now as a pedestrian, I gotta warn you. You're playing a dangerous game. But when you're in your death machine, absolutely honk your horn, do all sorts of things. Number two, don't flip the bird. I found this out a long time ago. Flipping the bird does not give you joy. You know what gives me joy? Arm flail? No, not even. Oh, you know what I do?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
I antagonize and then when they make eye contact, I do something passive aggressive like, Hi. I just wave, hi, thank you. I do that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Yeah, the roundabout feels like 14 lanes going on in a circle. But the actual Champs-Élysées, I think, is either three lanes or four lanes. It's not that wide. Okay, I thought it was more than that. It's not a highway. It's a street.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
No, that can't be right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
I only do that, I get frustrated when the people in front of me don't know. It's your responsibility, car behind the slow guy. You're supposed to honk the horn. Now I gotta do it. So if you're all scared, well, guess what? Even if there are three cars in front of me, if none of them have honked, guess what? I'm honking for all of you bastards because none of you guys took the responsibility.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Well, let me tell you something. Right now, what's happening is... Because of spring break.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
They've ruined it. They've ruined spring break. There's nobody there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
You took all the anger in your life, residual anger from other things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Just when I watched Notre Dame football.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Yes, it is the explosion. I don't think I'm angry. You don't think you're angry because what happens in your day-to-day life, little things happen. I like the fat jokes. Little things happen, and there you go. And you're like, oh, it's all right. It's okay. But it's not. But it's like what you're doing is you're being the bigger man, the much bigger man, and you're pushing all that stuff down.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
But guess what? That stuff has to go somewhere. It goes in a bucket. It's called road rage. And then when you get in the car, it's no holds barred. You're not angry because this person is slow or that bike is slow. No, I am, though. You are, as all the anger of the day, coming out in a geyser of just pure fury from the ground.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Not great listening there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Your reaction, do you think it's an overreaction by you? You know why it's an overreaction? Because your cup overfloweth from the anger of the day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Dan only knows one pirate. Who is Chum Bucket?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
There's a relatability to what we're talking about. I think everybody's been somewhere where there are traffic problems and had these feelings that Jess is espousing. And I'm explaining to them it's because you're a decent person in the rest of your life. And so you need somewhere where you can be a real piece of shit. And that's what the car gives us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
The ability, the permission to be a real piece of shit. So next time you feel angry or frustrated in any other part of your life, don't take it out on your loved ones. Don't take it out on your coworkers. Wait till you get in the car and wait till somebody...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
at a red light, it changes green in that fraction of a second where they have not moved, and take all that anger and frustration from the rest of your life and channel it right into one massive... Play video games! No! Play a game of pickup! Don't do it while you're in your car! Incredible Hulk smash that horn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
I'm surprised Catholic to her accord, Jessica didn't chime in there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Ahoy, It's Captain Slappy! (feat. Martin Baron)
Marty, I'm curious, how much of Bezos' pivot is literally just a survival of the moment, meaning that this Trump regime is going to end at some point? Is it possible he'll pivot back to what he was before? Or do you think this is just the new Jeff Bezos and this is how he does business?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Where did that come from? Oh my God, I've never been so happy to hear that music in my life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Old English is like not, is my understanding of Old English different? I'm thinking like Beowulf. Like English that we would not find recognizable. You guys are thinking like the way Chris Whittingham talks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
That's not what I, I'm picturing like the 1100s. Oh, that's not English then. Well, it is. It's old English, I think. I mean, I took these classes a decade ago.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Have you ever read Beowulf?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Like I can't even think of an example of it off the top of my head.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
My sister majored in medieval studies. She has a Beowulf tattoo. Wow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Can we revisit something from earlier this week? I wanted to sort of like just say out loud how funny it was to hear people chanting fire Nico at medieval times. Like. At this point, I am starting to feel a little bad for the guy because they're chanting fire you at medieval times. That's rough. But the sound and the visual was so funny. There's a joust happening.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
There's giant turkey legs and mead and people chanting fire Nico.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I was going to say Andrew McCutcheon.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Oh, I thought you said baseball player. Darn.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
It's actually J.R.R. Tolkien's sketch of the dragon and Beowulf. Oh, that's my bad. Then it's cool.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I texted my sister, send me some old English words. It's an emergency.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
What if it's talk like a pirate or talk like a character from Monty Python and the quest for the Holy Grail?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Okay. I like that. Sorry. I'll take that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Did you guys ever go to medieval times? Is there one down here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Orlando? Yeah. What a hike.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
If you're going to go all the way to Orlando, go to like a theme park. Don't go to Medieval Times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Farther away than where Stu Gatz lives.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I was convinced when I went to Medieval Times in fourth grade that they accidentally served me alcohol because I remember drinking whatever they gave and it was dark in there. And I remember just being so like off the walls hyper the entire night. And now I think they probably just gave me something with a lot of sugar. I told my whole family I've been served Long Island iced teas.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
There was a Medieval Times strike last year. Oh. Apparently, some union issues.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
That's what management said too. And that's why the government is stepping in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I mean, they got their own rental cars. They got their own stuff in there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I got top five holes. You guys want to hear it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Golf holes or just holes?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
All right. Number five. Yep. In Doral, Paul 418 on the Blue Monster Course. A Trump Course.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
It's a par 5. It's just a shocking admission from down the middle Roy. I did not see that one coming. I'm a golf guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Right down the middle of the fairway.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
It just sounds different coming off his club.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I got distracted. I'm sorry. Number four, the Waste Management Stadium Hall. Yeah, 17 with the Waste Management. People kept going there. Yep. Number three, at Augusta National, the Bar 312.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
The scenic hall with the bridge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yep. Number two, Pebble Beach, Bar 3. The eighth hole.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
Yeah. You're shooting from a cliff, basically. You're shooting down. You're overlooking the hole. You're shooting down onto the ground.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I wish I could play it. Beautiful course. And number one at TPC Sawgrass, par 317, the Island Green. The Island Green.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Magic Crate of Content Saves the Day
I love this tournament. You weren't on Thursday. You weren't on Thursday.

Milt Plum. Milt Plum was born in 1935. He's 89 years old.

He played from 57 to 69, Milt Plum.

This episode of the Dan Lebitard Show with Stu Gatz is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Milt Plum Show
Why did that room laugh that hard at that? That was not funny. Major penalty, five minutes, ruining comedy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Milt Plum Show
Serious breathing going on for my dad right now. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Milt Plum Show
So is Jamar. That's probably where you got to be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Milt Plum Show
We've all got one. Let's all go around the room. I thought Chad Henney was going to be great in the answer for the Dolphins. Roy?

Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
But you just get distracted and keep going? Like, hey, what was I thinking about?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
Fuentes just gave me the eyes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
It's very heavy handed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
Don't you dare. Major penalty, five minutes, ruining comedy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
It looks like an enye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
Thank you. I'm seeing three to four months to grow back eyebrows fully. Oh, boy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Disgruntled Off Between Jimmy Butler And Tyreek Hill
You should clickbait this thing up. You should be like, Riley speaks. That's how you put it out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
It's like green. And also there's not like an... It's not like an alternative version.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I thought red velvet was just chocolate cake dye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
On a plane? Because then that would make sense. I'm asking you, Dan. I feel like you have this information. It would make sense. Glad I got that off my chest.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
feel so J.J. Redick-like confidence to say, I'm taking something away from LeBron James?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
He or she should have been fired.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
The plum also overrated. Think about the butterfly effect of that, though. That alone should have gotten that nutritionist fired because A, it's attributed to Pat Riley, so much so that 10 years later we're telling stories on podcasts. And B, it was the fall of potentially the best basketball dynasty we could have ever seen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
That's a documentary that should be produced by Meadowlark and then marketed by Neon Films to win Best Picture.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I think DK Metcalf has done really well. He's a great wide receiver. I don't think it's because of his body. I think you're objectifying an NFL wide receiver, and I'm not going to stand for it. I feel like a piece of meat sitting here as you talk about wide receivers. They're more than just their body, Dan. You went to Ole Miss, by the way. I didn't want to come and just jump on that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I'm not completely colorblind, but I'm pretty colorblind.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Pinks and reds are really tough. One in 12 men are colorblind. Really? My kids, they crush me for it, man. Because I'm always like, this matches. I'm like, no, dad. You're wearing green and brown. And I'm like, oh, okay, sorry.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Yeah, it's because you're a racist.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I mean, it's mostly just clothes situation. Yeah. And I also feel like I walk around with a little more dull version of life. Like I feel like everyone else sees a lot more vibrant colors than I do. It kind of always feels like.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I might also be just depressed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
But it's kind of like, it feels like a non-color corrected film always to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
My version of yellow is just different from your version of yellow. I want to be in your eyes for five seconds. I confuse oranges and yellows. What?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
You're going to have Quavo at the Quavo Club. Yeah, no, we're not drinking. At the Quavo Club, we're drinking Hennessy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I wasn't sure if we were going to go there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
They have that for sure. Right now, today, you could go play in a craps table in VR and feel that heater for as long as you want.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
How were they not better? They were better in the NFL than they were in college. That's the real travesty.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Oh, my God. Yo, 11. What if you had to stay in there the 23 years? You can start it, but you cannot stop it until after 23 years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I don't even know Woody Page as a journalist. He's the guy around the horn with the sign. I know who he is, and I love the sign, and I'm like, that old guy is funny.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
And you singled out me and Amin, so that makes me feel like it's going in a certain direction.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Writing in black scent is crazy. What year is this? I'm going to say 99.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Story adds up. Did he change the actual quotes that you had in your article, put it into BlackScent, and then put it in his article?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
And that's why I did that shit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I don't even know if I want to hear this on air because I'm trying to balance between.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
That might be the most offensive quote I've ever heard. It's how he ended the column. It's the final line of the column. Goodness gracious. What if that's the reason around?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
The level of racist to write that quote, it is not a real quote.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Yeah, that's nuts, man. Guys, it was the 90s.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Granted, nobody cared in the 90s. I don't feel good about this anymore. That's a bad one. We've got to do some more research into it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I feel uncomfortable when he does it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I was going to say, I've literally never heard the term if-in. Now, granted, I didn't grow it up in the South. If-in you grew up in the South, you would have known it. Finna, I use finna, like, all the time. And, you know, everyone I'm around, that's a term that we use. If-in is like... This is going to be really unfortunate.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Yeah, I mean, DK Metcalf is a specimen. Height, weight, speed, obviously, strength, a part of that. And if he gets with a quarterback, like if he does go to a contender with one of these quarterbacks who can take that ability to the next level, you'll probably see a career year from DK Metcalf.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Tell me it's about John Cena.

Who would be best to solve a train murder mystery? Who would be the killer, and why is it witty?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Can we get a new one? Who would be the best to solve a train murder mystery?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Who is the most famous person that might come to your funeral?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I know way more black Louies than Leroy's.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
It's all offensive. All of it. Michael Jordan. Most offended by him saying it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Michael Jordan won't go speak in Europe for 250 mil, but he's coming to your funeral? That's right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Probably what Tony's going to do when he gets over to the U. I would never flip up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
He was pretty good at it, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Are Bonita Fish big? Anybody get that reference? I mean, I guess. He's just still recruiting. They're a trophy fish.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Greatest shooter in college history probably. And that was a ridiculous question from Michael Porter Jr. if he was ranked. Dog!
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
I went to Duke when Duke was Duke.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Chris, tell me this. What coach's disposition do you like in the media? Like when they talk to the media. Missoula.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Listen, I also think that for J.J. Redick, who is, to Dan's point, the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers on a team with LeBron James and Luka Doncic... Spoiled. You have to get up there and not treat media a certain way, but... But you gotta exude a certain confidence in every room to be able to go in that room and get them to be like, hey, I gotta respect this guy. I gotta listen to this guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Don't you dare. That's crazy. Worst flavor. Best flavor by far.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Dan definitely just read a hype beast post about Taco Bell's new Baja Blast flavor. Whoever the Sham Saradia of fast food, Dan has him on alert.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Iffen He Gets Plagarized...
Starburst. I don't know. I kind of feel like it's all in your head, man. What's the best starburst?

You trade him and the team falls apart because the culture is really just nonsense to sell season tickets. It's all about the talent. And when you get rid of the most talented players on your team, you have off seasons that are not good and seasons that are bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But they got rid of their star. That's what I'm saying is the culture exists when you have the star.

Fight him? When he's better than you, there's nothing you can do. Yeah, what are you going to do? That's why, from an outsider's perspective, that's why they roll their eyes at the whole culture stuff. Because the culture exists as long as the superstar wants to indulge it and participate in the culture. He did not want to be participating in the culture.

Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
If you're a team that wants him, this is what you want to happen because you want him to fall to you because he just kind of starts plummeting. But no, Shador is not hoping that he falls out of the first round by any means just because he might end up on a better team. He's costing himself money. I'm just saying, does he say, okay, maybe this is not what I wanted, but this could work out for me?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
Well, also the better teams all have quarterbacks, right? So he wants to go to a situation where he's going to play or there's a playing plan in place for him. He doesn't want to be a backup on the Chiefs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
I'm okay, thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
It's fine, but if you're a team looking for a quarterback, you want the parents to have given your quarterback a good arm, and we can find the belief down the road.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
I... I want my children to believe in myself, but that has nothing to do with what the NFL needs at the position. Believing in yourself is great. You could also be not that great. I'm not saying that that should do her, but what they care about is talent and arm strength and all of that. They're not handing out Nobel Prizes. They're trying to win Lombardi trophies.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
Who cares if you believe in yourself? Everyone's full of walk-ons. Every college is full of walk-ons that believed in themselves that just weren't good enough.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
If you're good enough, you can look past it. This weekend, I don't know why, but this weekend I was watching highlights of Baker Mayfield when he was at Oklahoma.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
When they refused to shake his hand? They didn't shake his hand, and he was talking the entire game. He grabbed his crotch. He looked at the other team. He was screaming at them the entire game. I think it was against Kansas. And the broadcasters were like, oh, the NFL scouts, they're not going to like that one. They're not going to like that in their locker room.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
That's probably going to impact him. Number one pick. Like, so if you're good enough, you can look past all of the arrogance. It's just a matter of if the measurables aren't there and they don't think that his arm is strong enough, they're not going to put up with it as much.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
I mean, it's not good for like a sports radio show, but like it's all stupid, right? Like it doesn't matter how confident you are or how good your ability is. Like the NFL draft ends up being a crapshoot anyways. We were talking about it with Laramie Tunsil last week and how people, oh my God, we don't know what to do here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
And then he ends up falling and then he ends up being like a multi-time Pro Bowl or so. Like Shador can fall and he's either going to work out or he's not going to work out. And he's going to work out whether he's the number seven pick or he's not going to work out if he's a seven pick or work out as a 28th pick or not work out as a 28th pick. It doesn't really matter all that much.

I'm curious because we talked about this last week in the NBA. And basically, people would care if it's LeBron. If it's not LeBron, people largely don't really care what's going on in the NBA anymore. In baseball...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
they cared a lot at the beginning and now you also kind of forget the only reason you know is because the length of the suspension is so long that it's so obvious like oh 81 games like you miss half a season so like you know but otherwise you kind of forget oh this person got suspended like three seasons ago i don't even remember that football you never really care because like people are out so frequently in the nfl anyways with injury that you don't really know why someone's not playing like oh pd's like oh and they're back next year oh and like pro bowler like
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
Oh, can we get them now for a cheaper price? Like, okay, like, yeah, let's sign up for that. I'm actually curious how the NHL views this, since this is why we started today with ECLAD. Like, do the NHL fans care about PEDs?

That was a waste of money, if we're going to be honest. It's a crazy waste of money. That taxpayer money was crazy.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
I think the crazy thing about where we are in performance enhancing drugs, unfortunately, is now when you see someone gets pinched for performance enhancing drugs, I think the first thought most people have is like, oh, so you're just dumb. Like, because, like, everyone's doing it and they know exactly how to get around it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
And, like, oh, we have someone that's dumb and couldn't figure out how to get around it. Or is just, like, reckless and didn't do what they needed to do to properly pass the test. Which, like, is a crazy thing. But, like, as sports fans, you just kind of have accepted that everyone's just trying to get around the system and they've figured out how to beat it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
And then when someone does, you're like, oh. Hmm. Why can't you figure out how to get around it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: The Mitchell Report Was Crazy, Huh?
You're not upset that you're cheating. You're upset that they're dumb. I think that that's where we are with some of this stuff. Also, like, outside of Florida, I don't think anyone cares about Aaron Eckblad.

But it's also coaching cycles, right? If Bill Belichick would have sat out another year or two, he would have been back in the NFL. That's just kind of how it happens. When Bill Cower left, everyone was like, Cower, Cower, Cower, because he would say no.

Eventually, just because of the NFL and the fact that they don't really give that many new people opportunities, they all eventually get another job. He just got tired of waiting, and he wanted to do this. It wasn't like he went blank. begging to North Carolina, he found a program that was desperate enough to give him everything that he wanted.

Both the coaching and the relationship, if we're being honest, are probably going to end horribly. This isn't going to go well on either front. But he's having the time of his life now.

Well, because the way that college athletics works, it's not set up for him to be successful. His success was not just Tom Brady, but it was because he was the dictator of an entire system that he ran in New England, where you came in and you knew you were signing up for that system. The way college athletics are now... you just basically have to pay the best 18 year old.

And if they don't like it, or if they succeed, they can go to a school that can pay them more than North Carolina can probably pay them with a better, a better pedigree than North Carolina. Or if you sign someone up to be the backup, they can then leave the next year. So like,

It's a different system where Bill Belichick's going to have to change the way that he's done things, and he's going to have to do that now at like 72 years old with 18-year-olds who are just looking for more money, and they're not going to buy into the Patriot way, which is what we always talked about, why Bill Belichick was successful, because of this whole system that he set up where the players didn't really have much of a say in anything, and they just had to do whatever he wanted.

And that's just not the case of college football right now with NIL money.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
There's also questions as to how committed he actually is to this process, right? When we saw the specifics of, well, he hadn't actually signed his contract yet. And there's outs where it would only cost a million dollars if he left for an NFL job before certain dates. Maybe Bill Belichick falls in love with being a college coach and he really enjoys North Carolina.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
You see him at basketball games with recruits. He seems to be buying in, right? But we also don't know how long this experiment is actually going to last, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
I mean, I didn't go that strong on any of that. I said that it's just assuming that it's going to be a success is not necessarily the case. But there's also a very big difference in Deion Sanders' ability to recruit and build Belichick's. There's a relatability there that's different. It's not just they were successful at what they did. Bill Belichick
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
was kind of told by the NFL, you don't have it anymore and we're not going to bring you back. You were the greatest coach ever, but also time has passed you by and we don't know if you can do it without a quarterback because you haven't proven us that you can do it without a quarterback yet. So it's not me saying it. That's the message the NFL delivered to him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
What I'm saying is, I don't know that what he did successfully in the NFL translates over to present-day college football.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: I Need Jetpacks and D***
The 18-year-olds he's trying to recruit also, though, the last time Bill Belichick was Bill Belichick, they were probably like 10.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

He was a dick, just saying. That's why he's gone.

Coach, when a player comes up to you and they say they want more money, do you call Mike Ryan directly, or how does that work? How do you get more money for the players?

That Bills-Ravens game is the Chiefs benefiting from what the Patriots benefited from to get seven Super Bowl wins where you get the first round by and then you only have to play one good team to get points.

Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
to the Super Bowl you don't have to play two of them we would like the Chiefs chances a lot better of getting to the Super Bowl if they had to play both Baltimore and Buffalo in order to get there but like all of us are sitting there saying of both the Ravens and the Bills both of those teams can be Super Bowl champions like sure They can beat anyone in the sport in a way that's obvious.

They can go into Kansas City. Tell me Baltimore's style isn't suited for a bad weather game, wherever it is that you want to play. Man, I haven't seen Cam Hayward look like he's quitting. The Steelers are getting accused of quitting because the Ravens just leaned on them all game.

Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
To his point, since they moved Kyle Hamilton to safety Week 11, the Ravens are all No. 1 across the board in all the defensive stats. But what Jessica's saying about that collapse of the Steelers, four of their last five games they lost by 14 or more points. Four of their last five. They lost five in a row by a total of 66 points. They collapsed upon...

the end of the season but when Mike mentions TJ Watt I don't know what he was doing in the game before last but I thought that the game plan on TJ Watt was just to have him unblocked and let Lamar decide every time as he decided to tackle Derrick Henry without the ball
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
to just run around to where he was, and that's how they neutralized him, by just having Lamar Jackson stare at him all game and say, you're the only person on this field who can beat me, because you're the only person on this field who can take this football from me, and if I just do run pass option the entire time,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
From the very beginning of the game, they had no answers for that, and then Derrick Henry's coming close to 200 yards. Because you can make the argument, based on just statistics, that that's the best rushing offense we've ever seen, where the running backs are disposable. They've got two of them that aren't disposable.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Let's play the sound of George Pickens after the game, basically criticizing the Steeler offense that has. I did not have that one today. Mike Ryan calling for Aaron Rodgers as the next Steeler quarterback. Let's hear from George Pickens here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
He's unusual, man. Can we play the sound, please, of the commanders winning the game and the radio call? They went on a doinked field goal, 37-yard field goal from Zane Gonzalez. A lot of people have noticed that he was twitchy right before that. He was doing a lot of playing with his hair, as he often does. And it seems it does he have a clinically diagnosed OCD?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Because I don't think this is just nerves. He's done this before where he gets he looks nervous if he's not nervous because of the amount that he's playing with his hair. They they win the game at the end. And I'd like to hear the radio call of that, please. I'm not sure who these announcers are. Help me out here with the announcer.

that I am watching football games, and while watching football games, Stugatz, because I've always been somebody here recently that's been watching them on Red Zones, the Red Zone doesn't have commercials, I am legitimately discovering shows for the first time that promote during the NFL games, which is why it is that all of these networks are fighting over the NFL schedule, so they can introduce you, of course, on CBS to Hollywood Squares,

So he's hosting Hollywood Squares, but here, Stugatz, is something I had not noticed before. Special Forces, the world's toughest test. Here is, and can I interest you, in some Cam Newton jumping from a boat onto a helicopter. All of this seems a little bit dangerous. When I saw it, with the sound down, of course, I said to myself, is that Cam Newton? That can't be Cam Newton.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Why would Cam Newton be doing that? All of this seems a little bit scary, but he does grab onto a helicopter, and that is a lot of weight he is carrying onto the helicopter. All of that looks scary. That seems like a show. Billy, this seems like down your alley. Special Forces, World's Toughest Test?

Let's play the interview at halftime, though, that suggests that he might sometimes get lost in the weeds on certain things. Todd Bowles is not a great interview. Todd Bowles, in all our lives listening to Todd Bowles, Todd Bowles usually doesn't say very interesting things, but here's Todd Bowles at halftime not giving you a lot of confidence where he gets stuck in the quicksand.

Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
I wanted to ask the group based on Mike Ryan saying that the best game of the weekend was Friday night. A couple of different questions about college football. I don't know if Ryan Day has changed your appraisal since December 21st, but he's beaten two of the top three teams in the SEC and also the number one team in the country. in the last three weeks. Blew them out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
But two of the top three SEC teams and the number one team in the country. I don't know if your opinion has changed on that. You have heard me recently lament I really don't like any of the measurement systems in sports playoffs outside of basketball for being an accurate measurement. But I do believe that most of us would agree that the two teams at the end here are probably the two best teams.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
And I'm just super bummed out. that Notre Dame is clearly suffering the ill effects of they shouldn't be playing 15 games a season. They've got almost double-digit people hurt trying to play this game against Ohio State, and so it makes for an imperfect measurement where they're a 10-point or 9.5-point dog playing against an Ohio State team that is healthier than they are.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
What a delightful Monday surprise. Greg Cody of the Miami Herald is in. And Chris Cody, I'm going to make an accusation now that you'll be able to tell me whether it's accurate or not. I'm pretty sure it's accurate. He's wearing a Christmas shirt. Brand new. I haven't seen your father wear a shirt that's not more than a quarter of a century old. I'm telling you everything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Jessica mentioned before the show today, Stugatz, this shouldn't surprise us too much, that she rewatched the watch. She rewatched the Notre Dame game just because it was one of the highlights of her life. The reason that I did not just kick her out of the room, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Because I believe that she's got to stop breaking this rule around here that we've had for a long time of telling people when something's a bit like she's the only she's the only one who does it. We pride ourselves on there are things here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

There are a number of things I could shock you right now by giving you any number of things that people think are a bit that wasn't a bit and think that people who think things were a bit.

Can you guys get for me, please, the Wolf Blitzer entertainment system? Greg Cody was being mocked by his son before the game or before the show today because he was saying that Wolf Blitzer has exactly the entertainment system that Greg Cody would have if Greg Cody didn't have a wife. who takes care of these things and cares about technology and electronics.

Well, I'll tell you what I love about TiVo that I don't love about YouTube. My ability to pause and slow down things in football. Yeah, YouTube's terrible. My Apple controller makes that stuff much less fun than it used to be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I will tell you that it is great fun to have the TiVo on the occasions where I can watch in slow motion Dallas Goddard stiff-arming Valentine three different times.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Not as humiliating as Minka Fitzpatrick getting one of those from Derrick Henry. Derrick Henry did with one what it took Dallas Goddard three to do, but Dallas Goddard didn't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
But Dallas Goddard, what he did to Valentine is basically what a father does to his eight-year-old son. As a stiff arm. And I love slowing down football and seeing all of the minutia that I don't see when I'm watching it at real speed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Three times. Just three times hit him in the forehead. Humiliating. Humiliating. There were a couple of things like that that I saw this weekend. Stugatz, the Texans' D-line mauled the Chargers' offensive line. I saw the center thrown into Herbert.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
No, no. Home team's winning a game. I'm never surprised. Wait, Stugatz. I don't believe. Like, first of all, the Chargers were a road favorite, first of all. I know. Second of all, there was not a team being doubted more outside of maybe the Steelers because of their last five games as being playoff worthy to go on a run and goes right back to, oh, man, that's too easy for the Chiefs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Goes right back to, right now, everyone is saying that's going to be something that is too simple for the Chiefs because nobody believes in the Texans. Right.

Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
How do you forget? Hold on. What was the best part of the dicker play? He thought it was a Hail Mary. My favorite part of the Dicker play. So Dicker gets the Dicker, the kicker gets the field goal blocked. And as it comes down from the sky, he tries to knock it down. It's still in play. All he's done is create a fumble that gets run the other way. But not knowing the rules.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Yes. Well, he wasn't trying to make a play. You heard Boomer and Teej in his head screaming, knock it down. Stugatz, he wasn't trying to make a play. He was trying to prevent Houston from making a play and instead made a play for Houston. But not knowing the rules is one thing. He got annihilated as soon as he did it. He should have ended up in the concussion protocol after that. Just...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
before he got hit because of the decision that he made. As soon as he makes the decision to knock the ball down, they should have just put him in the concussion protocol.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

But even so. Mike, they were down their top three receivers, their center, and their two left guards.

If you had to choose a story from the football weekend to start with, do you start with a winner or with a loser? If you can only pick one thing as the most important thing that you're most interested in talking about, because I was underwhelmed by most of the games, all the home teams winning, until I saw a rookie. winning a road playoff game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
And not just winning a road playoff game, Stugatz, but winning a road playoff game with no turnovers and no punts. These stats I'm about to read are crazy. because road playoff games are obviously hard to win. Only one team did it yesterday. Probably broke Mike Ryan's heart. But this is from OptiStats.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
In NFL history, there have been three instances of a team having zero turnovers and zero punts in a game behind a rookie starting quarterback, either regular or postseason. All three games are Jaden Daniels. Week two, week three, and a road playoff game. And then this one is more stunning.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
From Doug Clawson, Jaden Daniels has more games in his career where his team has zero punts and zero turnovers, three, including the playoffs, than the combined careers of Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Peyton Manning, and Patrick Mahomes. Combined.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
That was stunning to watch yesterday, even if you've been watching Jaden Daniels all year, seeing him go in as an underdog on the road and beating Baker Mayfield in Tampa.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Terrible. Did he have three interceptions all season? Was it three all season? That's his first three interception game ever. I should say, by the way, two of those weren't his fault. They went right through the run. I mean, they were just little passes out to the flat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Yes, he does. The stats here. This one's great. This one's great, though. This stat here. Are you familiar with the three leading receivers for the Chargers on Saturday? Well, one of them's definitely got to be Ladd. Yes, Ladd had nine catches. So Ladd's the leading receiver, nine catches for 197 yards. That third and 26 play was crazy after Herbert took two straight sacks.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
The only touchdown the Chargers scored in the game. Can we trust Houston's defense again?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
That was weird. I don't have a good explanation for you. It was weird to see the Chargers that constipated. I'd be careful if I'm Kansas City. But, lad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Kansas City Chiefs were originally the Dallas Texans, if you happened to be listening last Wednesday when he made that joke.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
So Ladd McConkie goes nine for 197. And then their third leading, the third leading receiver that Justin Herbert threw passes to was Will Disley, two for 16. And then he threw four passes for 108 yards to the Texans. 108 yards. one of them a pick six. He's not wrong when he says that was the disaster of the weekend. Do you go winner or loser?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
Because a lot of people are talking about the Steelers as well. They're talking about the fact that Mike Tomlin is in this area that Jimmy Johnson used to talk about, the enemy of great is good, where you're just sort of stuck with overachieving seasons and then you get to the playoffs. And rare is that, right? A lot of people are accusing the Steelers of cheating, I'm sorry, of quitting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
That is not what happened at the game. The Ravens just leaned on them all game, gutted them, and wore them out. Cam Hayward is not a quitter, but on the first 95-yard drive, because you have to start tackling Derrick Henry, Cam Hayward is already gutted on his own goal line one series into the game because of how Baltimore plays football. It's really hard to defend them.

Billy, what did you talk about on God Bless Football as the first item of business?

How many turnovers do the Bills have this year? Because one of the most stunning things of my football lifetime is seeing the reckless coached out of Josh Allen. How many turnovers do they have this year? Do they have double-digit turnovers? All of them. I'm not even just talking about interceptions. I'm talking about... I don't think that team has double-digit turnovers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: NFL Playoff and College Football Playoff Reaction
No, on offense. Including fumbles lost? No, I'm talking about... Coaching the reckless out of Josh Allen and seeing Josh Allen and the Bills steamroll, okay, the defensive player of the year, probably, and Patrick Sertan, who allows them to have the best pass rush in the sport, and they just did whatever they wanted in the second half of the football game.

I saw the video. He went and he went out of his way to say hi to Stugatz. Like he was going to do something else and then kind of change directions to go say hi to Stugatz. I did see a video where Stephen A interrupted a live interview to go say hello to Emmitt Smith. It wasn't that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Yeah. Well, I'm confused. What? What? He's asking about my stamina. His stamina? Well, I mean, Friday was a bit of an adventure for everyone involved because a lot of the people that we had scheduled disappeared because of, not the stamina, but because of flights.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
That's just on the front end of this, because I see where this is going. I arrived that day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Because of scheduling, I missed one interview over Zoom that I was scheduled to be there for. So I missed one interview on Zoom. Now, the problem on Friday was that we had a number of people guest, and we played this game where nobody knew what time the flight was at.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
So we were booking guests, but we didn't know up until like 10 o'clock at night the day before what time Stugatz actually had to leave by. So when we finally got that information, we had to cancel all of the guests for the next day because none of them were going to line up with the time that he had to be out of there by. So we had to cancel a number of guests.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Now, the crew, and I don't want to speak on behalf of the crew, but many in the crew were quite peeved at this situation because there was a flight five hours earlier that the entire crew could have been on. And as a result, we ended up going at 9 a.m. that day for us to interview Bomani, which we could theoretically do at any point in time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
But we did it that day, and then all of the guests that we had scheduled had disappeared. Now, the crew, I think, is not happy because they apparently secretly recorded something that was going on that Friday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
And this was a person, after Stugatz had left, the crew had to stick around, and now they have to break down the set, which, again, they could have done the day before, or they could have done earlier in the day, had they known what time the flight was at, and gotten out of there at 2 instead of 7. So we had some help when we were breaking down the set.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
And I was very bad at helping break down the set, but I was there pitching in. And then, lo and behold, a friend of the show just decided, you know what, I'm going to go and I'm going to help pick up all of your equipment for us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
And Dominic Foxworth decided, being the nice guy that he is, not to give away $5,000 if he won $50, but to literally break down and clean up Stugatz's set after Stugatz was gone out of town. Right. Even though we saw him like an hour later still just walking around Radio Row doing interviews with him. Plan to catch him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
He doesn't work for us. He just decided. He saw us cleaning up his set. He said, you know what? I'm going to help with this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Oh, he was so good at coiling those cables. I'm not going to name names, but I had some people here that very dismissively were condescending the way I was trying to help wrap up cables. And they're like, you're breaking the cables. You guys brace things all the time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Different cables. No, that's what they told me. I thought elbow too. No, that's for like extension cables. Like an extension cord in your house? Different cables.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
I'm a celebrity. I tried to orchestrate. What I thought would have been one of our better social media posts, but then I cowered and backed down at the last minute. So our flight was at 7 o'clock on Friday evening. Could have been sooner, but that's a story for another day. So our flight was at 7 o'clock on Friday, flying back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
I'm getting out of town. I mean, Eagles quarterback. If you want to hear from him on Radio Row, this is the year. On a Wednesday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Um, this year, Stugatz until Friday was very well behaved. And I don't think we canceled any until Friday. They tried like hell to cancel Funny Marco on Tuesday. Everything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Well, we had. That's a Tuesday, Wednesday guest.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
And you go and you sit down and it's just like a who's who of like celebrities and football players. Almost to the point it was like, who is this who? Because someone was walking through with a giant bounty jacket on that they got when they were going around doing radio. And we couldn't exactly place a name on who it was that was still wearing their bounty jacket on our flight.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
It was the only thing we didn't have scheduled on Friday, but we did that. But that's also Buscelli's fault, Dan. We were going to get the Buscelli hit. This is no Super Bowl without Tony Buscelli zooming in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
But like Johnnie Smith was on our flight and David Njoku was on our flight and Venus William was on our flight. And there's a player from an unrivaled on our flight. All in first class, I assume. No, there were so many people that they ran out of first class seats. Like I'm not even joking. I was shocked because I booked the flight like, I don't know, a month and a half ago.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
They have the best that Forrest Gump sat on. Jacksonville. Great American cities, huh?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
It sounds like we're just naming New York, Chicago, New Orleans, and LA and a couple others.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
So I got like row two of normal people seating. So I was like row nine or whatever, right? And like when I'm seeing some of these people walk past me and I'm like, this just does not feel right. Like I'm not supposed to be sitting further up on the airplane than these people. And like we've discussed this a number of times and I thought it on the way up because on the way up,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
I saw Raheem Most on my flight. We had an awkward exchange. On the way up, I had Raheem Most on my flight, and I said, you know what? If Raheem's on my flight, nothing's going to happen to this airplane. I thought that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
On that one, I would have been on a note. You know what I mean?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Maybe he already did, but AI Jimmy didn't want to retire. And this was a fake Jimmy Johnson the entire time. And they're like, we can't have another season of fake Jimmy Johnson. They're going to catch on to us eventually. So then they had fake Jimmy Johnson needing to come out and retire to put an end because fake Jimmy Johnson has been doing this for who knows how long, a year, maybe two years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Fake Jimmy Johnson? The real Jimmy, it's unknown where the real Jimmy Johnson, he may be fishing, he may be somewhere else. Not for me to say, but the question is, maybe fake Jimmy Johnson was finally supposed to retire because people were catching on to the technology, and now he has become aware, and he's making decisions on his own, and fake Jimmy Johnson didn't want to retire. If I may.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
Too many people there, honestly. Also, Glazer's a chatty Cathy. He knows the truth about everything. I mean, how about some professionalism and tell if he's retiring or not? You know what I mean? All of a sudden, we're not going to report a story we may know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Great American Cities
He told us about the Jets stuff with Aaron Rodgers. Tell us if Jimmy's going or staying. Glaze, come on, man. He would have good sources on the matter, I would think.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
No, it was famously Depeche Mode. I mean, he covered Personal Jesus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
You've got to be careful there. The reason why it was overdone, because I also... Felt that a little bit. I'm like, this is a little over the top. And I also realized what New Orleans has gone through.

Lacrosse went head-to-head with the Super Bowl?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Do you think that's what was at play or they didn't want people making the observation that you have end racism in the end zone while the seminal war chant is going on?

Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Well, he didn't know how to tuck that shirt in. He kind of went in between. That was a lovely performance by Lady Gaga.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I actually saw the value in Tom Brady having some of those restrictions lifted and being able to talk to coaches beforehand. I thought he brought some insight there. And I'm happy that a producer finally pulled him aside. He's like, hey. You've won seven of these. You've literally seen every situation. Let's have a little brief story.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Every 15 seconds or so, whenever there's a situation that you encountered when you played one of these.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

So you're like, oh, that was better than I thought it was one of his better ones.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

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
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
A little cute line about Saquon bobbling the ball. I didn't mind my running backs doing that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Greatest quarterback of all time telling you that he slept like a baby the first first Super Bowl that he played in, napped and everything, and then by the last one he was nervous, couldn't get any sleep before.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I guess I've always seen more of the novelty and more of the value in
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
simply the greatest of all time to ever do it i've never had access to the greatest of all time during a game broadcast during the biggest games of all time i've never had access to their thoughts like that so the novelty i do wish he were a little bit more charismatic i do wish he was a little bit that's it though like early in the game when it wasn't quite a blowout yet just vibeless it was just a vibeless open to the super bowl and i felt very melancholy and malaised
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I'm your host for the evening.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I mean, in this case, they just sent an old white woman to chase after somebody until he got off the stage and then was promptly tackled. Well, not even promptly. Didn't catch any of that. Shout out to the directors for cutting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I'm from New Orleans? Yeah. Are you not familiar with how this goes? Let there be a Super Bowl in Miami and guess who they trot out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Yeah, Harry Connick Jr. is, especially to the area.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Well, it has to be where the Super Bowl was. And which area famously has Malort?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I had half of one of those Carvel football cakes.

What's the biggest sass kicking since when? I know Buck's Chiefs was a bit of an ass-kicking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I guess Seahawks-Broncos was also a bit of an ass-kicking. I just kept hopping on Eagles live. It was obvious from the jump.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
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.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
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. tastes like Miller time. And it's got tastes 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.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

It just hits different than other light beers because of simple ingredients like malted barley for rich, balanced toffee note flavors and that iconic golden color. Miller Lite. Great taste. 96 calories. Go to MillerLite.com slash Dan to find delivery options near you, or you can pick up some Miller Lite pretty much anywhere they sell beer. Tastes like Miller time.

Don Libertard. Common thread was Stugatz chumming it up with Aaron Rodgers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Yeah. As you know. As you know. Stugatz didn't talk to Aaron Rodgers. Nope. Stugatz thought country music superstar Jake Owen was Aaron Rodgers. They had a 20-minute conversation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
It wasn't just Harry Connick Jr. No, he wasn't the first voice that we heard. That was like three hours into their broadcast. Master P was also out there. Which marching band was out there? Was it Southern? It was a tie-in to all the local music.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I just wish, I mean, we're speaking about it like it was obvious. I would have sounded so smart had I known that before the game. I didn't know that the difference along the trenches was what it turned out to be, and I don't think anyone did. In fact, several people on ESPN were caught within a 24-hour span switching their picks, including Dominique. This was a hard game to predict.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
It was inside one and a half points.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
It's a numbers game. It tilts the math in your favor. You all of a sudden get to take what was believed to be a mediocre at best wide receiver core for Kansas City, and you get to just stack more really good pass defenders as the numbers and advanced metrics bear out all season long.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
I just didn't think that that defensive line could go an entire Super Bowl without blitzing and just cave that entire pocket in. Because you mentioned Lamar Jackson. Patrick Mahomes is pretty mobile. And every time he was trying to use his mobility to escape, there wasn't an outlet. They just collapsed the entire pocket around him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Sweat should have been MVP. And I say that as someone that was really impressed with what Jalen Hurts did. Sweat was just a demigod last night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
At least he was at the Super Bowl covering the game, right? That's why he was, right? No, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
Yeah, that's less likely. There's plenty of Little Caesars in Canada, where he's from, around Hamilton. This guy was a struggling comedian up and coming in Canada. I imagine there were a lot of pizza nights there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: Super Bowl LIX Reaction
You also mentioned Jesus. He gets us. I love that he gets us, but he also doesn't get the meaning of that song. The same way that conservatives don't get Born in the USA.

Yeah, that's true. Billy's been dealing with a headache. Sadness.

I'll start with saying this. Majority of emojis are sort of seen as blasé these days. The cool kids aren't sending them. In other words. So what are they doing? No emojis.

That's what young people tell me. I'm not a young person. I don't know.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Meaning I'm not going to say anything, no comment. I'm not here. I'm invisible. But I am here because I'm sending you an emoji.

A red heart eggplant. Yeah. A little moisture-wicking emoji.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Dinner & Dessert
What about the peach emoji? Would you ever send that one?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Oh, because of the holes. I get it.

No, George Jefferson did not say that. No, no. Fred Sanford said, Elizabeth, I'm coming to join you, honey. I love Sanford and Son. Do you? It's a big one. But I've always said Wheezy. Two different shows by Norman Lear. Well, I know it's two different shows.

Local Hour: The Loneliness of Not Sleeping
I think there must be, like, a work emergency if you're calling me. Hmm.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Yeah. So I'm saying if you just call out of the blue, it's like, oh, yeah, that's not good.

But 2023's team. Yeah, that's right.

Wait, but Roy, you were just saying last week how you would never wear Panthers stuff to a Panthers game. So are you going to do it in like a button-down shirt? Because that's too far of a line to cross, but you'll bang the drum?

The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Es gab viele wirklich gute Filme, aber im Vergleich zu Oppenheimer, der großartige Schauspieler war, großartige Editing, Hall of Fame-Direktor und Christopher Nolan, haben sie eine Bombe gemacht und es aufgelöst. Es gab keinen Film wie das in der Best Picture-Kategorie dieses Jahr, aber es gab viele wirklich gute Filme, die ich sehr liebte. Ich würde...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Great Drum Decision of 2025 (feat. Peter Rosenberg)
Es wird nicht in dieser Kategorie gewonnen, aber ich würde es gerne gesehen haben, dass I'm Still Here das Gewinn gewinnt. Ich dachte, Conclave war wirklich gut. Aber ja, Nora war ein guter Film. Ich denke, die Leute, die es sehen, würden es lieben. Aber es hält vielleicht nicht komplett auf zu einem Best Picture Gewinn. Aber ich meine, vielleicht war es der beste dieses Jahr.

Did you watch I'm Still Here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's Why They Call Me Marco
That was a really good movie. Yeah, I think that there were a lot of movies worth seeing in the theater this year, Billy, but there's a lot of stuff going on. So sometimes you just don't have the time to go and that's fine. And now you can stream Anora tomorrow if you feel like watching it because you found it at one Best Picture. So I thought, I don't know, it was a good night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's Why They Call Me Marco
It was a fun award show. I think the middle part dragged, but that's when I put on my jammies and brush my teeth and wash my face and get ready for bed. So I was content having a good 40-minute stretch where I could just walk away for a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's Why They Call Me Marco
Yeah, I thought that the big winner the last night was people like Mike who were like, I'm going to watch The Brutalist if it wins Best Picture, and then it didn't. And now three and a half hours of your life, you get back. So have fun. Enjoy it. Do something fun. I think I'm going to watch Heretic again.

He should have been nominated, by the way. Stanley Tucci snubbed. But they always do that. Ray Fiennes snubbed. Should have won.

Coleman Domingo also should have won. Thank you. They both should have won.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's Why They Call Me Marco
It's very earnest, yes. But I think this year they had to change it for the Best Actress category because Emma Stone came out and then they were like, these are the nominees for Best Actress because the actress who played the main character in Amelia Perez was embroiled in scandal and controversy throughout this entire awards season. Also...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: That's Why They Call Me Marco
Another big winner last night, all of the haters of Amelia Perez because they won for best song and I think a couple other ones, but like none of the big awards. And so if you hated that movie, which most people did, what a relief.

Well, I thought he was really funny and that his whole premise of I'm not going to waste your time, it worked. He didn't waste our time, and it didn't run late because he was just bullshitting in the middle of the show. It ran late because they did a random 10-minute ode to James Bond that probably didn't need that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I honestly assumed it was like SponCon. It was like, hey, remember James Bond? You're going to watch it now on Amazon.

Now, how much does both Miller and Pedersen are kind of having down years, especially when compared to the last couple of years? And, you know, you could blame the beef between them, the fact that the team is kind of meandering around. But how much does that play into, I guess, their value and what Vancouver can try to maximize from it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Considering, you know, last year they were both, you know, basically 100 point guy. Pedersen was eight points, but they're both big goal scorers. And now it's like, you know, what am I getting?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Because you have experience in front of a microphone? Yeah, well, so-called experience.

So I wanted to ask you about the Islanders and their recent fire catching. Like all of a sudden the Islanders are the team, you know, one of the best in the Eastern Conference over the last couple of weeks. But they made a move. They made a move this week. And I know Roy's not happy with it. So I'm going to kind of let him guide this one.

Ethan's a not-so-healthy scratch.

Alright, my hot take comes from out west in Vancouver, and it's not, I don't know how hot of a take it is, I think we all can kind of agree on it, but Vancouver needs to get their shit together. Look at this poor guy, Linus Carlsen scored his first NHL goal in Nashville the other night. Nobody Gave a shit. Nobody picked up the puck. Nobody celebrated. This guy just scored.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
It doesn't send a good message when you're trying to say, hey, we're inclusive, we're for everybody, but you can't wear pride jerseys, or we're going to keep bringing in guys that are repeated offenders. Yeah. You know, actions are one thing, or excuse me, words are one thing, but actions speak a lot louder. And I think clear, clear actions.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Yes, no Canadian captain news to talk about. Yeah, f*** that.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Yep, Bob was good in goal. It was fun, because the first period was a little tighter. Ford didn't start that game that well. Certainly turned it on in the second and third periods, which was nice to see on the road. But man, the Sharks, like, holy cow, since they traded Mackenzie Blackwood, it has been like, boom, straight down. Holy crap.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

What I like about Aiden Hill is what I liked about Tim Thomas. And it's that every time the camera is close enough that you can see his face through his mask, he's almost always smiling. It looks like he has such a good time when he's playing hockey. And that's something I really like and appreciate. So in that element, I like Aiden Hill. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
We talked a lot about the beef between JT Miller and Elias Pettersson, and it goes back a long time, and it's nasty what's happening in Vancouver. The season is bad for a lot of people, but dude. What's going on? Even the worst teams in the league have appreciation for their rookies. This team is so distracted in Vancouver that they cannot pay attention to something like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Still, Spencer Knight's January was spectacular. Three wins. Let's see. I got it right here. 946 save percentage and 1.47 goals against. And that's after two games that kind of dragged those numbers down a little bit. The last road games against the Kings and the Vegas Golden Knights.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
But man, between Knight's January, Sergei Bobrovsky's last couple of games, you've got to feel good if you're the Panthers about the way your goaltending is starting to round in form.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
It was also Paul Maurice's 899th win. So, pretty cool.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
It was Sam Bennett's best game of the season, right? Oh, my God. Yeah, like seven shots, eight shots on goal. That line was humming. The Bennett-Kichuk-Samiskevich line, they were humming that night. Yeah. Also, Sergey Borovsky, his second shutout of the season. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
What was cool about the Kings game, just like on the road a few days prior, each game went into the third period with the Panthers winning 1-0. In L.A. last week, they had two little net-fronty, funky goals. Lost 2-1 this time. Closed it out with a 3-0 victory. The empty net goal by Matthew to Chuck. Just a strong victory. You've got to be happy about that starting homestand.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
It was a get-right game. We'll see how it plays out, but that felt like it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

They really got to fix this. That was depressing to see.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Well, the speed element for Mackey combined with the confidence and the way that he's grounding into a very good two-way player, it's a great complement to that line. If he can keep it elevated, because we know what Bennett and Kachuk can do offensively. It's back-to-back weeks for that. Kachuk. You know what? Yeah. Yeah. I'm getting criticized by Rose for...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
I think it's just a defensive logjam. And they're really happy with the play that they've seen from Toby Bjornfot, who came up from Charlotte when Epclad was out and when Mikolo was out and they needed that depth. I think Boquist, maybe, you know, he's young. He's RFA. He makes, you know, 775K. I just think that, you know, they're... The room isn't there. Florida's really happy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
They like that top six. Uvis Balinstas is somebody that they really like on the back end as a defensive player. And, yeah, I think it's unfortunate, but Boquest, you know, I wouldn't be surprised to see him get claimed. We're recording this. It's about noon on Friday, so we're going to find out within the next couple of hours whether he got claimed or not. But he's still so young.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
He's like, what, 26 years old? So, you know, start of the year, power play one. There's an upside there. Somebody's probably going to claim him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Even the trainers on the bench, nobody was yelling, hey, get the puck, get the puck. Are they that distracted that they can't find the smallest joys in their life? It's frustrating and it's sad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
It doesn't feel good when you don't see, like... And I'm not super following Chicago, but I don't see a plan ahead of me in terms of this rebuild. Like, they've got some good pieces. Well, they've got one really good piece, Conor Bernard. Yeah. But yeah, I don't know what the direction is right now in Chicago. And the trade... They get nothing but a draft pick out of that trade.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
We'll see how it plays out with the deadline coming up in five weeks or whatever it is from now and an offseason. But they're a point ahead of San Jose at the bottom, bottom of the league right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Six straight games. They're 8-2-0 in their last 10. They're four points back of Columbus for the final wildcard spot. They're trying to move. But karma might catch up with them, Roy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Big bite. Big bite, Rose.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
I mean, even back to his first season with the Panthers when they went on that amazing playoff run, the first round against Boston, he was pissing off Olmark, he was pissing off Swayman, he was getting under everybody's skin.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Yeah, he's not malicious. He doesn't go out there trying to hurt anybody, but he does the little jabs, the little pokes. You saw even in that video of the Kings when Kemper stayed out of the net, Kachuk was looking away from Kemper, but he still threw a fist in his direction. So he knows exactly what he's doing, and he's so good at it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
She's going hard, though. Do you have to finish that whole bowl, Rose? Is that what we're doing here? Before the show ends?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
She used to sound just like us, but she swore so much as a child that she developed this accent because her tongue is like permanently swollen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
All right. I'm going to win. For this week's win of the week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
I'm going to the PWHL for this one. Young goaltender, Kaylee Osborne. Yeah. uh... we don't have the video that's okay uh... but when it was good that kelly osborne rookie goaltender she was spectacular cold a university uh... in college but now her second pro start for the New York Sirens. She picks up a shutout in her hometown of Ottawa. Really cool situation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
And again, just the PW season has been really fun. The rookies have been spectacular this year, and now a goaltender is getting in on it. So good for Kaylee. Good for the Sirens getting the shutout. And just a really cool situation that I thought the video was great. I thought they celebrated her properly. Good job on that, Sirens. But just really cool. Give some goalie love to the young lady.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Kick her butt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Wow, he didn't even move his lower hand. That's impressive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
He couldn't have done that, by the way, if he wasn't a southpaw. No. Just FYI. Most goalies, their left hand is their left hand. Yep. For Kemper there, not Kemper. For Charlie Lindgren. For Lindgren there. That was so sick, though. I mean, how often do you see a goaltender with a Superman save?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Capitals pretty happy with their goaltending. Yeah. They just locked up, what's his name from Vegas, Logan Thompson.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Six-year deal for like $6 million. That could be a good deal for them. Yeah. And then I read that they're looking to lock up Lindgren as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
What was that, Dave? I haven't heard Rose sound this bad since she got sick after the parade. That was a disaster. She couldn't leave the house for a week. But she's not sick. She's just wasabied. Wasabi.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
My fail of the week. Sorry. My fail of the week comes out of NYC. Vincent Trocek and the Rangers just having a disaster of a season. But here's Vincent Trocek on a shorthanded breakaway. Oh, my God. The Rangers are going to tie this game. Wait. He's going to make a drop pass. Oh, God. Jesus, no. No. So that's bad enough, right? Then what happens? Carolina takes the puck, goes down the ice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Is there skating here? I'm just going to score a goal because I don't know what the hell Shostakovich was doing there. So from Vincent Trocek. on a breakaway to the puck in his own net.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
That may have single-handedly derailed the Rangers' turnaround because they were 8-1-3 in January. They've now lost two straight in regulation. So I don't know, man. The Rangers, what are they? They're five points out of the wild card right now. I mean, this is a team that people were thinking was going to come out of the East this year. They were two wins away from the Stanley Cup final last year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
I feel like Nedeljkovic being the fun guy that he is, he's probably a little laughing under his mask there. I mean, you made me feel a little responsible, too, because you've got to seal that post. Yeah.

Watching them prepare this, because you're supposed to boil ramen in a pot, and they instead put it in a microwave bowl and just poured hot water on it and then mixed it up. No, you can microwave ramen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
I think the last time that they were good, and I could be off here, but I'm thinking early to mid-90s, like the Olympic year, the World Cup of Hockey, where the U or the A kind of had a flag thing. Going off. I thought those were okay, and I think it's kind of all been downhill from there. They tried to go to a crest. They go to color schemes. Like, what are we doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Trades, Fifth Chances, and the Spicy Ramen Challenge (feat. Greg Wyshynski)
Fonts are changing, like, every other year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

He gets his ass whooped here by Tanner Janot just like he does every time he fights. Ends up on his ass. Tanner Janot actually picks him up off the ground and is like, let's go, buddy. You're not getting out of this easy. Yeah. Fail of the week, Matt Rempe, always the fail of the week. Now he's on the injured list and won't be seeing him anytime soon.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Bucci, I've got a million questions for you. There are a million ways I could go, but I'll start here. BC has this star-studded line that basically carried the Americans to the World Junior Championship this year, right? But they also have the... The tragedy of Johnny Goudreau is affecting them as well, just like the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Calgary Flames.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

When did he say this? Because I was watching a Canadian broadcast the other night. I can't remember the game, but on Sportsnet or TSN, they had somebody on who said it around 2015 or 2016 as well.

The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
It wouldn't surprise me if they get a deal done at all. And they kind of need to. He's a very valuable player. And like Dworky mentioned, Ekblad, I mean, has been just the defensive leaks in this game were crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
The defensive leaks since Ekblad went out have been very on Panther like they really need to try and get both of these guys resigned or else it's going to be an interesting offseason for sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
He is so good at the shootout. It feels like every time he is in one, it's a shock if he doesn't score. You know he's going to score when he gets into the shootout. Rhino should have tucked the game away. He beat Jari, but it just went off the post. His shooting, he's had a little bad puck luck recently. But the star of the shootout for me was Sergei Bobrovsky. He saved all three attempts.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
And the final attempt against Brian Russ, who had two goals in this game, I thought he was beaten. I think Goldie thought he was beaten, but then Bob Robski kind of like moved his pad and you saw the puck just sitting in the crease. It had not gone in and you were like, Oh my God, the, you know, the, the Panthers won. So, uh, that was a crazy shootout. Bob has been absolutely phenomenal recently.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Um, And it shouldn't be any surprise, right? We all kind of knew he struggled early. It'll be fine. Go around in the form come February. And since I think his number since I can't remember exactly when since January, he's got under two goals allowed per game. His save percentage is up near 930, maybe even over 930. He's been absolutely fantastic.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
He's going to be ready for the playoffs once again, and he's going to have to put the Panthers, you know, he's probably going to put the Panthers on his back just like he has the last two years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
He's making his debut. Paul Maurice announced it in the press conference today.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
That's right. Marshand and Bennett. When you look at these lines, all of a sudden, what these lines look like when the Panthers are at full strength, you're looking at either Mackie Samuskiewicz.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
possibly evan rodriguez oh yeah fourth line yeah that's mackie on the top line ridiculous mackie up top you could have verhege on the third line or vice versa i mean either way serine and boquist on the fourth line erod on the fourth line like i don't know what the hell paul maurice is going to do with these lines but
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
But just like the Panthers did last year where they had five lines they could roll out there if they wanted to, they're going to have five lines that they could roll out there again. Guys like A.J. Greer, Jonah Gajewicz, and Thomas Nosek, who have been solid players for the Panthers all year long, are going to possibly be on the wrong end in the playoffs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
It's going to be amazing to see what Maurice does and what this team looks like at full strength. Because you're talking about Evan Rodriguez, who led the Stanley Cup final in goals last year, possibly being a fourth liner come playoff time. It's insane.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
His tribute video should just be... The penalty kill. The penalty kill. Correct. Just play the penalty kill in full. The minute 30 where he doesn't have a stick and he's diving headfirst to try and clear the puck and then Bobrovsky. That should just be... They don't need to show anything else.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Panthers four days off between tonight's game and Sunday's game. But the schedule just loads up at the end here. They get that tough back to home and home with Montreal, not back to back, but Sunday, Tuesday. That's still a tough trip. And then a back to back on Wednesday against Toronto and then another back to back game. the next weekend on Saturday and Sunday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
So there's three – I think they have two more back-to-backs the rest of the season. It's a brutal stretch. And it's going to be – or three more back-to-backs. Excuse me. Three more back-to-backs the rest of the season. So they needed those four days really badly. Yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
It's been a frustrating year for New Jersey, right? And they're kind of limping to the finish line. Literally limping. Literally limping with all the injuries that they've suffered in the past, what, two months or so. Right now they're seven points back of Carolina, and they're fine in the division because Ottawa's in the Atlantic, so they won't catch them there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
But it's been a frustrating year, and it just seemed to all bubble over in the moment. I was listening to 32 Thoughts last week, and they were talking about this, And Fried was kind of saying that people were hard on Keefe about how he wasn't hard enough on his players in Toronto. And then now he takes a shot at his players and everybody's mad at him for being hard on his players.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
So, you know, you can't have both. It's got to be one or the other. So we'll see, you know, how it affects them going down the road. But certainly some interesting comments there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
This is kind of the typical Torch track, isn't it? Where he overachieves with the team his first two years and then by the third year, everybody's sick and tired of him. There's been problems with his star rookie all year where Mishkov, you know, everybody was like, oh, look, Mishkov scored in the first game without Tortorella. Of course he did. So it kind of seems to be that track.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Somebody called Torts the Stan Van Gundy of hockey, where every time he coaches, he seems miserable, but he just can't stay away from the game. Torts is a really interesting character. I'm sure he'll be on a bench somewhere in the NHL coming soon.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
I love Dworky saying that's such a sad thing when you're looking for your tooth as if that's something that's very relatable to all of us. That's a very exclusive to the greatest hockey players in the world problem.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
My win of the week is Alex Ovechkin, and not because he's six goals away from breaking the all-time goal record. My win of the week for him is because of this incredible act of sportsmanship that we saw last night against the Minnesota Wild, where they lose to the Wild, it's a tough loss for them, and he goes to the bench as his teammates are going into the locker room. This is captain-type stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Awesome Zoom background, by the way, Dworky. Awesome Zoom background. Top notch. That's some fake books in there, you know, like Ronan Farrell.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Waves everybody out there to shake the hands of old rival Marc-Andre Fleury. Fleury. Those guys did some incredible battles back in the day when it was them and Pittsburgh going at it. And to see the respect that they have for each other, there's been respect for Fleury all over the league this year. To see that kind of respect from an old rival like that, it's just as cool as it gets.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
So hats off to Alex Ovechkin for that one. All right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
The lamest thing you can possibly do is break up a goalie fight. Swayman's already got his helmet off. They're ready to go at it. There is no reason that fight should have been broken up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talkin Cawlidge Hawkey With Bucci
Oh, Lord. This guy features in Fail of the Week seemingly every time, I feel like. He deserves it this week. Tanner Janot here and him going at it for a scrap. How many times have I told you guys this guy isn't actually good at anything? He's bad at hockey. He's bad at fighting. He gets penalties pretty much every time he's on the ice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
One of the greatest movies of all time. It's a great movie. So my kids, I showed my kids Rocky for the first time last weekend. Watched Rocky for the first time. And I was worried. Because, you know, Rocky 1 is slow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
It's slow. Well, no, violent.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
You know what my kids watch?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Guys, are you excited as I am for this new Statham movie? A working man? A working man. I just saw the preview right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I love these new Statham movies, which is always, I'm just a guy minding my business, but then somebody messes with an innocent person.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
No, but someone messes with an innocent person in my life. Steven Seagal? I don't like that. I can't do a Statham. So I just do this voice right here. It's like someone messes with an innocent person in my life who really isn't in my life, is tangentially in my life. So maybe it's my neighbor, like it wasn't the beekeeper.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Or maybe it's like the daughter of my best friend, like it isn't a working man. But now that they mess with him, I've got to destroy their whole criminal organization. Just me. Just the man. I love it. Did you guys see Beekeeper, by the way? No. Oh, he was in occupation. Beekeeper was hilarious. Hilarious.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Including the lines like, most people don't know, honey is one of the most flammable liquids ever. And then he lights it on fire and the guy goes off. Is that so? Yeah, that's what he said. Really? I don't know if it's real.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Apparently it's very flammable according to Beekeeper. I gotta watch Beekeeper.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Flying submarine. It's a supermarine at that point, right? A submarine. A submarine is a submarine. And if it was just a boat, it would be a Marine. Get it? Yeah. Everything in movies is real.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Yeah, like the Ark of the Covenant. Exactly. Don't look now. Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no. We're back, baby. Where's my laptop? No, no. Kill that music, please. We're back. One of the big stories in sports, and Mike, I'm glad you're here and looking now. I want you to be looking now because this is a big story in sports. I call it the biggest Cinderella story in sports.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Not a Cinderella story. Get out to the battle hawks. The biggest Cinderella story in sports is the Sudanese national team in soccer, right? So if you don't know, I'm from Sudan, and our country has been at war. Just like Akbar. Yeah. Yeah, just like Aguilar-Domestique, yeah, has been at war for a good two years now, where there's no infrastructure, there's no safety.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
It's the largest number of displaced people in the world right now, the biggest refugee crisis in all the world. And so the Sudanese national team, as a result, has not been living in Sudan, has not been playing home games in Sudan. They've had to live in Libya and play their home games there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And everyone who listens to the show knows I'm a huge Brazil fan because growing up in Sudan, you're like, well, Sudan's never going to be good. So we all adopted Brazil as our, that's our country. And it's been an unrewarding experience to watch Brazil be awesome and excellent. But this is different.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Because now the Sudanese national team that doesn't live at home, that doesn't play its home games at home, has been on this miraculous Cinderella run over the last year and a half where they've qualified the African Nations Cup. And they're currently number one in their World Cup qualifier group. And so they had a big game last week against Senegal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And Senegal is a team that has a lot of big-name guys. Sadio Mane, to give you an example. They've got a bunch of guys that play in the EPL, and they play at the top levels of European football.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Power, right? You talk about the biggest teams in Africa, like the perennial, the Dukes, the North Carolinas of African soccer. It's Nigeria, it's Senegal, it's Ghana. Those are the three. And then everyone else kind of get in where you fit in. Algeria, I guess you could put them in there as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
It's risky. So I was worried that it would be too slow for them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And so for Sudan to go and play against Senegal and not only come out with a draw, but like kind of should have won the game. And they should have won the game. It was something that was magical. And I was wondering, Mike, because you are a soccer guy, is this a story that's resonating with soccer people? I know Master Tisfacion went on Galazzo and he did a segment on it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
But for the soccer heads overall, is this a story that's resonating or is this still kind of nature?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I want to put this out there. If Sudan makes a World Cup, and obviously the World Cup is going to be here, Canada, and Mexico in a year. Wow, it's coming right up. If Sudan makes a World Cup, I've already announced. that I am going to be the host for all of this. I'm going to take the team out to dinner. We're going to go to Fogo do Chão because we want that Brazilian energy in us, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And I'm going to be doing the media rounds. I'll do ESPN. I'll do Fox. I'll do everything. I'm going to make this a thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Because the ending is super satisfying. They were confused by the ending. They were like, wait, who won? It wasn't clear. And I was like, yeah, Apollo.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Because I want this to be visible because I think people need to understand. It's insane to not know if your family members are alive or healthy and have to go out there and compete. And again, I'm trying to think of what the American equivalent is. It would be like McNeese State playing against the Bulls.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Well, I'm just saying the war turns stuff apart. It could do so much good. The war turns stuff apart. It's also like the talent gap. We don't have anybody that's close to what these teams are bringing to the table.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Absolutely. Now, should everybody be rooting for the UFL?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
The way it's shot, first of all, my kids don't watch boxing. So the idea of like, the first judge had it, 115. They don't know what's happening. Number two, the announcement is actually in the background because the foreground is Rocky going, Rocky!
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
That's the intro I was trying to get to. That's what he's looking for, yeah. Thank you. Is there an Andrew Hawkins of the UFL?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Like right now, Jop Pearson. That's made it. That's made it? That's the Hawk story. The Hawk story is he started there and then he made it. Turpin. Not a guy who could make it, a guy who did make it. Turpin.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Wait a second. Is this a Brian Scalabrini situation? You know how Brian Scalabrini played in the Big Three? Do y'all know that? Yes. Very briefly. Then he went to broadcasting after that because he was like, oh, I'm too old for this. But the idea of I'm a broadcaster, but then I come back and I work out and then I play? Is that what's happening?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
like so and then they hug and they see Apollo jumping they don't know what they're like wait who won so I had to explain that to him the other notes that we got right number two is when's Eye of the Tiger come on and I had to explain to them guys Rocky 3 which led me to should I skip watching Rocky 2 no
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I think we need CFL merch for Hawk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I would love CFL merch. Anybody who works for the CFL, can we send some CFL merch to Hawk so he can wear it on the show next time?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Again, unchecked. That's how we like it around here. Everything's unchecked. When you guys have a cleaning person coming to your house... Do you clean your house first? We're the cleaning person.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
There's part of it that is the safe face, right? Absolutely. I feel like this is a universal. This isn't a two Americas thing, right? This is universal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Look, some of it is the safe face, right? Some of it is you don't want these people like, oh, these people are animals, right? But there's another part of this. There's actually two other elements to why you clean up before the cleaning people show up. Number one is you clean up the things that I don't want you messing with. I'm going to put this stuff away because I don't trust.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Because you don't know where it goes. I know where it goes. Exactly. And one of the things I hate about the cleaning people is when I open a drawer and I'm like, where the hell is the thing? And they're like, oh, they put it in this cabin over here. We never put the bottle opener there. Why would it be there, right? Number two, and this one is huge.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Because if it's too much of a hard work, they might half-ass it. So I'm going to get rid of the original kind of surface level stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Not only do they only have to do 75%, they have to do the hard 75%. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Oh, yeah. Well, are they our enemy? No, actually, now it's more resonant than ever. Like 15 years ago, I was like, what? Why are we mad at this Russian guy? Like now it's like, yeah, it's back. We're back. Cold War back, baby. 20 CBs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Six. I call it Rocky six. I'm not going to do. And I call Creed Rocky seven. And I call Creed two Rocky eight.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Rocky VII is really good, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
That's the one with Drago's son, right? Uh-huh. Oh, yeah. No, Rocky VIII is fire, bro. What are you talking about? Rocky IX was the one with Jonathan Majors.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Good. Not bad. I haven't seen that one, I don't think. That's the one I haven't seen. Maybe we'll work our way up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Is Jonathan Majors supposed to be kind of like Clubber Lang? Not quite, but a little bit of that? He's more evil.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
You guys are telling me Rocky II has the rewatch value, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Yeah, that's when they're hugging at the end of Rocky I, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Man. We recorded an episode of Cinephope Top 5 the other day. And we were talking about worst parents in Cinephope history. And I submitted, as one of my outside looking ins, Rocky in Rocky IV. Because he's so sick and tired of being a dad and being a husband, he decides to fight in Russia on Christmas Day. Just get me away from my family as far as possible on Christmas Day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
And then Adrienne shows up. She shows up anyway because she's CT5 or spouses. Just nagging. You're not going to win, Rocky. You can't win.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Is this shot that important? 20CB, they just give you the smelling salts. You're good. He's good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Think about this. Rocky left his wife and child on Christmas to go to Russia, communist Russia, to go fight a dude who murdered his friend in the ring. You know how much of a bad husband and a bad father you have to be to be like, I'm going to do this over here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
All he said is he's going to go to the funeral. Only friends go to funerals. That's not true.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
LeBron's not the only person spending seven figures on their body. Michael Jordan is, except it's just cognac and cigars. But still, look at George Burns. He lived to like 112 or whatever, so there it is. You, Hawk.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Let me get away from this before he decides he's not going to come up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Mike's not drinking Hennessy, by the way. Remy? Louie the 13, baby.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Hawk, you had umbrance. You took umbrance. You took issue with something that Dan said on the show about, was it Russell Wilson?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Dude, you get to live your, like, it's like, what do you call them? When people go play, not fantasy baseball, but like when people pay a bunch of money to go play on Yankee State.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Yeah, like fantasy camp, right? Except it's real.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Except it's real. Like, that's crazy. It's like going to Westworld for Russell Wilson, right? You go in there and like, oh yeah, these robots are actually trying to kill me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
We're doing this off of follows. She was a superstar. She was a huge superstar. She's more famous worldwide.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
With the meanest, leanest. Come on, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I'm going to tell you right now, don't look now, but I think Russell Wilson is going to do better in New York than Aaron Rodgers did. Oh, wait. I shouldn't have said that. It's time. New game. I like that. Don't look now. It's not a new game. And it's a terrible game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I thought I could leave it alone. I couldn't because when I went out there, Ethan shoved Taylor under the bus and said, Taylor hasn't seen Raiders of the Lost Ark either.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I'm really concerned about a lot of things, Tony, before you start. Well, number one, I don't know what Mike is doing to Pat Riley.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
I know that Pat Riley has a case, an HR case. Number two, you guys have recruited Andrew Hawkins into this somehow. I wish I got a real blindfold. Well, Hawkins, you've got to close your eyes at least.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
This is the first piece of analysis Mike has ever offered in this segment.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Hawk, how surprised are you that the door isn't closed on Aaron Rodgers everywhere?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
As you got older, was there any part of the locker room environment that you were like, I'm too old for this? Not necessarily the physical, but just like... So much of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
Doug Heffernan. He's a big Doug Heffernan guy. Is that what you're telling me? He's a big Jerry Stiller guy. Oh, Jerry Stiller's the best, man. R.I.P. The Boca Fista. But Raiders of the Lost Ark, this is like required viewing, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
So it loses you quick. Yeah. And you said you hang out with the coaches. How do the coaches receive that? Like, is there any part of it? Oh, okay. I got to see.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Whose Shoes Are Whose?
We just wanted to see how much longer you were to go. Yeah.

Fatou, you mentioned Sarah Nurse, and we've been following the PW for the last two seasons now. How much has that league coming together and its popularity and all the exposure, how much has that impacted bringing young black women into the sport, just from your perspective?

Does this get into the old school discussion that we've had, though, of guys, the old school guys not wearing visors? Because if you would have had a visor on, we wouldn't be having this discussion.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The whole point of them being there is they want to hear what's happening on the ice. If you can't hear, then what's the... I don't know.

Oh, f***. Yeah, it's just perfect.

So in terms of that progress, obviously, we have a ways to go before we get anywhere close to what we want to get. But we do have Mike Rear in a GM office right now. We do have Jessica Campbell, Brett Peterson. Brett Peterson in the Florida Panthers front office, Jesse Campbell behind an NHL bench in Seattle. So there is some progress being made. Do you feel like that progress is on a path?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
I'm trying to think like a way to phrase the timing question. But like, is it happening? Are we starting to see enough momentum that we cannot look at these things as a one off? Or you know what I'm saying? Like, are we finally starting to see this as a trend?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Just going to throw this out there. The record for most goals in a Stanley Cup playoff is 19. Ovi, go break it. Good luck with that. Absolutely.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
I feel so bad for Ilya Sorokin. He's having such a rough year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Thank you, Marky. It's cool to see hockey in places you don't see hockey getting talked about. You see it on the Tonight Show, the Kelsey Brothers podcast, the Dan Patrick Show. People are talking about hockey where hockey is not usually creeping into. That's the biggest thing, I think, what will hopefully be the residual effort from this tournament.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
when all is said and done is we're going to be talking about how much it grew the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
It felt like the first game after a break. They just felt a little discombobulated. They couldn't get their offensive zone time to click. They couldn't get the shots on goal. Credit to Joey Decord. He played a great game in goal for Seattle. It was cool to see the welcome back videos from Montour and Mahora, and the fans gave them a good ovation and all that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
But there's something about Seattle that the Panthers just don't click.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
So he didn't touch the goalie. He got pushed into the crease. Correct. And the puck was past the goalie before any of the contact. So as I'm holding up all these fingers here, like all those things did not happen. So where exactly was the interference?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
I've seen such more intrusive plays. Right, of course.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Anyway, anyway. He's calling the guy draped in Panthers bias. Like, yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Well, no, because at the time, they had just scored to tie the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
No, that would have given them the lead. They had just tied it. The momentum was on their side, and then that just kind of fell over it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
It's a Ned Gretzky hat trick, Rose?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
I would hope so. I think it's just a Panthers promotion, but I think for the sake of good humanity and good dog-anity or whatever, canine-anity, we can get that dog an extra adoption. Preds are bad, eh? I guess. Yeah. Yeah, they are. They're really bad. Just watching that game. They're undisciplined. They give up too many. They can't score. Their special teams are a mess.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Yeah. If they're going to be sustainable for a long time, they need to have cheap contracts that can contribute. They need the Lundells, the Mackeys, the Sortiffs. They need those guys to step in and supplant that bottom half of the roster.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
It's getting a little close, Roy. What happens when Crosby retires? Do you still hate the Penguins?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Three games in a row. Three overturned goals, man. The Panthers are fighting through it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
That was the opposite of the goalie interference goal. That one was pretty obvious.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Rose, what do you think of Anton Lundell? Do you know what he looks like?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Anytime they get into the rush game, it's not good for this team. It was good for the President's Trophy winning Panthers team. Yeah. But not the Paul Maurice Panthers. No. Fortunately, the Panthers played very well in other areas. They limited Edmondson's chances to Sergey Bobrovsky. Really wasn't that great either. But they scored four goals and they came out on top.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Yeah, he hates lightning. This is Mike cut out there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Yeah, one point out, actually. Look at them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Then they got rid of Warren Fogle.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
You know who's loving this? The narrative that Ethan just set up? The Los Angeles Kings. Yeah. Because they might actually have a chance in the first round this year. Because they actually might get out of the first round now. Because right now, if the playoffs started today, it's Kings Oilers again. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Yeah. Look, maybe you've got to build in a few days of rest. Neither of the Chuck brothers have played yet.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Do you want to set that precedent, though? I'm just playing devil's advocate here, but do you want to say, okay, we're going to do this amazing tournament where everybody's going to go balls to the walls, they're going to go crazy, that's how we want it, but then we're going to give them... a game or two off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Because everybody who's involved with the NHL that's not involved in the Four Nations, all the GMs of everybody that didn't, they're going to be like, what the bleep? Because now my NHL, you're not going to please everybody with this. So I think you can't make it a precedent, but if guys didn't just quietly take a game or two to get their stuff together, that's okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
That's a very bad word. You bleeped that. That's a very bad saying. Yeah. I know how to say the F word in French. Thank you, Shorzy.

My win of the week comes from St. Louis. Ryan Suter played his 1500th NHL game the other night, and the Blues brought his four kids into the locker room to read the pregame lineups. And that in and of itself was amazingly cute and awesome. But if we can play it, his youngest son, when he gets to his father's name, it just melted my heart.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
That's not. My dad starting suits. I love the little guy in the suit looking dapper as hell. I love it.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
As of you, as are you, because Tyler is playing hockey. Yeah, Tyler was on the other ice when Claire was on that ice. So it's pretty cool that our kids were out there. I had to look it up on my phone because I remember as she was on the ice getting a text from you, and all he said was, Dude, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, I think she might be good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Okay, all right. My hot take, it's not a hot take, actually. It's a cold take? It's a hot mic. Oh. It's not a cold take. It's a hot mic. Former Sabres, I don't want to say star, former well-known player Rob Ray, tough guy, fighter, longtime Buffalo Sabre. Yeah, that's the word I was looking for. Yeah, there you go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Slow down. You're getting 0-2, man. Kids on the other side of the fence. Are there any wins of the week from that side?

All right, my fail of the week, it's a referee. Justin Kia was nailed right in the bingo button the other night. Bingo button. At the end of the Vancouver-Utah game. Utah doesn't have a team name at both. Not yet. Alex Kerfoot spins around, tries to clear the zone. The poor referee's putting his hands up to protect his face because obviously that's the move, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
You've got to protect your face if a puck's coming at you. And that left his nether regions completely unguarded. And you can hear the bells going off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Like there's nothing the trainer can do, right? The trainer comes out there. Oh, what happened? Where's it hurt? Just don't worry about it. Give me some space. Give me a second. Don't touch it. Let me breathe it out. Just relax. He had the bottom lip sticking out like Bill Cowher. He was so in pain and embarrassed. You could see him trying to breathe it out, Roy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
Like, guys know that feeling. It's like the worst stomach ache, sharp pain. It's just, ugh. So, anyway. Yeah, I think about having kids, though, Ethan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
He works between the benches on the Sabres broadcasts, and he had his mic open and got hit by the puck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: The Bingo Button
You don't want to laugh at that. I mean, I guess 30 years later or whatever it's been, it's okay. But I mean, that's so not cool. The poor guy's on a stretcher and it's like something out of a comedy movie. Do you realize how rare it is for cameras to be in the tunnel? That's why. That's exactly why. Because they don't want something like that to happen for it to get caught on camera.

I agree. PK Subban acted in bad faith. You have to disclose exactly why you don't watch it at the very beginning before you make character assassinations.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
And you also have to wear your bias on your sleeve. For one, the primary reason why I don't watch a sport anymore is because the Miami Heat stink. And I've seen this, and I've been bored by their approach for the last two years. They didn't care about the regular season, so I responded in kind. But secondarily...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
because my team is no good it allows me to see all the other flaws in the sport and not care as much but i do want to salute donovan mitchell because yesterday we were talking about not necessarily through his own actions but it just hasn't worked out for kevin durant like the decisions he's ended up making and some of these things are out of his control like i'm sure in a vacuum he'd prefer to have gone to miami than phoenix but he gave a couple of destinations and he ended up going to phoenix there are certain things out of his control his teammates
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
getting injured. Although you do take that as a data point with Kyrie Irving. You have to account for Kyrie Kyring when you decide to team up with him. But it's worked out on the opposite end, I think, for Donovan Mitchell, and he doesn't have the same amount of title or bust pressure surrounding him the way that Kevin Durant does. He had the opportunity to play hardball with the Cavs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
would cleveland have been his top destination he didn't have that much influence over it no he probably would have preferred to go somewhere else but it's worked he brought along a fledgling franchise became the face of it and now they're legit title contenders it's really worked out for donovan i have a different slightly different way of looking at like the way i predict like i think cleveland is going to make the finals in the eastern conference i think man i don't even know who i think is going to make it in the west probably okc if you really break it down but if you
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Wow, what a huge NBA finals for Adam Silver. At this moment in time, Cleveland, OKC, that'll get him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
His game is going to age with grace because of his style. And I guess I'm always going to be worried about his ankles, but he's shown that. But I do have questions because they've played really well with Jimmy Butler in terms of wins and losses. Oh, boy. But I also look at Jimmy Butler's stats, I'm a little confused by it. He's shooting 43% from the field, he's like one for 14 from three.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
But a lot of the people making, like Stephen A. Smith, If I watch first take on mute here, and I'm assuming that Jimmy Butler's lighting the world on fire because every highlight that they show is him playing within the offense, and then I look at the numbers, I'm like, this doesn't really make sense. So why is it working so well? Is it competition that they're going up against?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
Or is Jimmy Butler doing things that don't necessarily show up in the stat sheet that clear things up for Steph and alleviate some of that pressure?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: It's Step-Dan Time
It's also why you can't dismiss the Gabe Vincent, Max Struess stuff. Sure. And how that became some sort of resentment that Jimmy kept. Yeah.

Besides being big, this is what I always say about Rempe. His only thing is he's big. He's slow. He's not a great offensive player. We know he's a fourth-line guy. He hits people and gets suspended every time he hits somebody. And then he gets in a fight with Jacques and he gets his ass kicked.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
I was going to make it our loser of the week, but I wanted to ask Avery about it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
I was watching this game live and it had the feel of a playoff game at the end of it. And to me, like, is this something that's getting called in the playoffs when it's a one goal game? There's an empty net already, and guys are just out there scrapping, trying to do anything they can to keep the puck away from the start player.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Avery, I heard a few weeks ago, Elliott Friedman report that there's a scenario where one gets traded, none get traded, or both get traded. So, it seems like at least one is definitely going to get traded. But what's the possibility that both JT Miller and Elias Pedersen get moved at this deadline?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
That's not the question I wanted to ask.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
This is the question I wanted to ask. Avery, I've got a take recently. You get to watch Conor McDavid every night. You're very lucky. It's harder for us to watch him every night over here. No direct flights. I really love – I watch Nathan McKinnon and I say, is that guy really that – is McDavid really on a different level? So best player in the league, McDavid or McKinnon?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
I'm going to take his hesitation as a win because the fact that he had to even think about it means we're getting to a point where I'm not crazy for thinking that McKinnon might be bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
By the way, Drysaddle has 35 goals already. It's crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
You missed the biggest storyline from this one for me, Roy, and it's Sam Bennett get back on the score sheet. Yes, that was huge. He hadn't scored in 21 straight games, and they really needed him to start getting scoring again because their scoring has been too concentrated. If Reinhardt's not scoring, Boquist has been the guy that's been stepping up, or even some of the guys down the order.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
But they really need guys like Bennett, Barkey, Chucky to start putting the puck in the net again and playing. And Chucky, Barky, and Rhino have been great on the first line together. But they really needed to get Sam Bennett going. So seeing him see one go in, I think, will be huge for his confidence and could get him back in his scoring ways.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
And he has an element that's something I feel like the Panthers kind of miss from the rest of maybe the elite teams, like Colorado at Edmonton. They don't have as many guys that just kind of fly up the ice. Mackie brings this speed dimension to the second line that... Feels like the Panthers are missing sometimes, the way he gets the puck going up ice like any time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
And Bennett says he's been mentoring him. He loves playing with him. So that line, Pomo, he shook up all the lines. Erod's been great on the fourth line. He scored twice recently. The third line has been good with Verhege down there. And Boquist has been a great scoring threat for the Panthers. So I like the way the lines are playing right now for the Panthers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
I actually think they've got something going with them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
yeah they're starting to really click rhino and barky i think it was the it was the rhino goal against anaheim the play where barky makes an interception dishes it off to kachuk kachuk finds reinhardt down low reinhardt finishes like that line the way they control the puck the way they control the play like that's something that needs to stick together because it's just throw your three best players out there mcdavid and dry side will out there together all the time like
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Save percentage on the season up to 907, I just saw on ESPN in the stats department. But going back to the third period lead stuff, you're talking about how it's concerning. You're talking about 18-2 or whatever it is. 5-2 on the second end of back-to-backs. It's concerning. We're nitpicking here. You know what I mean? We know the Panthers are really good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
We know they're going to turn it on in playoff time. And we're just kind of nitpicking. And it's concerning because it doesn't happen to the Panthers very often. But when you take a step back and you look at it and they're... Sometimes you're going to lose when you have a lead going into the third period. You're not always going to win. Sometimes it goes to overtime, whatever.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Obviously, you want those regulation losses to be limited when you have a lead going into the third period. But I thought the Panthers in that Kings game at the start of the game looked like a team on the back-to-back. And then I fell asleep, to be honest with you. But waking up and seeing what happened, clearly that back to back got to him because it was just they just kind of ran out of gas.

The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Thank you for finally embracing that. Thank you, guys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Rose, say uka peka luka den.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
And this is a big loss, David, just to touch on this Markstrom loss. He's probably going to miss the Four Nations. I don't know if we're going to be able to get any hockey analysis out today. This is going to mess with his eligibility for the Vezina, which he was probably number two behind Connor Hellebuck. I mean, Connor Hellebuck's going to run away with the Vezina this year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
But yeah, Markstrom, I was listening to 32 Thoughts this morning, and Elliott Friedman was basically saying... He's going to be out a minute and it's probably going to throw off his four nations, which for Sweden, they're now down Markstrom. They're probably down all Mark. So they're going to be on their third, fourth, fifth choice goalie possibly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
And it could that could throw off their entire tournament. Like the Swedes have a solid team that could be really competitive and all of a sudden injuries might get in their way here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Yes. I love these swings. Look at these swings right here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
My hot take here is there's nothing more try-hard than not wearing a visor in 2024. Like, just put a visor on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
It's the shield that goes over your eyes, and it was mandated that... everybody after 2013-14 has to wear one, but there are certain guys that because they played a certain amount of games before a certain date... No, no, if you were in the league before the rule was made, then you're kind of grandfathered in.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Yeah, I think there's only four guys left that don't wear visors, and they're all just like... Just do it, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
Leave your mic on. Rose, try and say Uka Pekkalukkanen. Uka Pekkalukkanen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
I don't got anything, right?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
We're showing WNBA basketball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
It's called the hockey show, not the Caitlin Clark show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
We need to make one, Rosie. We need to make a graphic. The Rosie Show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Get Off Rose's Plane
In regulation. It's not just that they lost in regulation. They were down 6-5 with 11 minutes left in the third period. So from seven minutes in the second period, that's seven, about 16 minutes of game time it took for them to go from up 5-1 to down 6-5.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
He is this season, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
So, Adnan, where were you last week and where are you going this week?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, he's getting penalties called on him that are not actually penalties because he is who he is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
My fail of the week comes from Avalanche Maple Leafs referee Kelly Sutherland. Oh, no. Wrong place, wrong time. He fell. He fell forward, and the puck stopped. He fell forward fast. And that's not the worst case because Stephen Lawrence came in and scored on McKenzie Blackwood.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Well, I mean, the Panthers won after the Maple Leafs won, so technically. No, but still, you'd like to be ahead by two. Yes, absolutely. But, of course, this road trip did not help the Panthers. You got one more.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, I got one more tomorrow.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
You win at Washington. You'll feel good about it. Back-to-backs, too. Away and home. That's ridiculous. What are we doing with that?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
And just to tell you how bad the Sabres season has been, there was an own goal on a delayed penalty when the Sabres played the Utah Hockey Club.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
No, it was a bad pass that went across the length of the ice.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Not great. Not great at all. Ant-Man, thank you for joining us. Prime Monday Night Hockey, Ant-Man Burke. Thank you so much, fellas.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
David Pignotta joins us from the fourth period. And the GM meetings has wrapped up this week. And they were talking about league business and whatnot and maybe some rule changes. Maybe not. Who knows? But, yeah, the general managers gathered together in Florida to talk about what's going on in the league. But there was a major issue that came from the Devils GM, Tom Fitzgerald.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
His son, Casey, was cut under the chin by a skater. Another form of cancer. Yeah, another phone, Tom Fitzgerald. Huge goal, game 7, 96. Gigantic goal. But his son was slit by a skate in a freak accident. He luckily made it to a medical facility and got stitched up. He is... Okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Also, what happened with the Canadians and the Senators, Josh Anderson was wearing cut-proof socks, and the back of his leg got slit. Luckily, the socks saved him. Shane Pinto, as you can see in this video, right there. That could have been career ending. That was right there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, in a preseason game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
So Tom Fitzgerald has made an impassioned plea to institute cut-resistant protective gear for the players, kind of grandfather them in, kind of like the visors and whatnot. What are we hearing from the GMs? Is there any traction on this happening, David?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Frank Cervelli has written an article on power plays being at its lowest level since the 1963-64 season. Penalties are just not being called. There have been 747 fewer power plays this year than last year. That's a 12% drop. I shouldn't say penalties aren't being called. It's probably more of the 4-on-4 type situations where they're matching penalties on scrums and stuff like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
And the GMs don't know why. What are you hearing out of the GM meetings about the power plays being lowered?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
All right. A couple of questions before we get out of here. Did the league talk about Donald Trump's idea of having a NHL KHL all star game? And where are we on the CBA? I mean, there's an influx of money coming in for the league. So is there a league piece right now?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Well, it sounds like good news coming out of Florida with the GM meeting. So, David Pignotta, thank you for joining us. Thank you, David. Absolutely, boys.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
All right, it's time for the Panthers recap presented by Jägermeister. Serve it cold or don't serve it at all. Jägermeister, damn, that's cold. For more, visit Jägermeister.com. Drink responsibly. On Saturday, the Panthers played at Montreal, and that was terrible. Terrible, I tell you. It was bad. They looked uninterested in this game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
But the Canadians, they really put their best effort into that one. And the Panthers deserved this loss. Probably not as much as the Canadians deserved that win, according to Paul Maurice, fellas. I mean, it was not a good game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, it's one of those situations where you go down early and you go down by two goals and then you spend the rest of the game trying to catch up. And they did. I mean, they put shots on net. And they put attempts, at least on, they tried, but nothing doing. No, Sam Montabeau did look good in goal for Montreal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
I mean, it was bad. So that was Montreal. And on Sunday, again, the back-to-back, and this is a running theme for the Panthers for the rest of the season. They played the Islanders. Now, this loss, they lost 4-2, was probably the most angry I've been at this team since. In a very long time. And I'm talking about we went to Edmonton twice and they lost. We flew 10,000.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
I don't want to hear you complain. I'm going to complain about this. God damn it. 15,000 miles. 10 cities to Edmonton and back. And they lost, and I wasn't as angry as I was when they lost to the Islanders on Sunday. And come on, man. They blew a two-goal lead, just like they did in Boston. And, of course— Third period lead. Third period lead.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Dmitry Kulikov got hurt. He left the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
As far as Kulikov is concerned, Paul Murray says that he expects Kulikov to return before the end of the regular season, which is I hate that statement. I hate that statement because there's a month left in the regular season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
No, absolutely. It's a lower body injury. It's an upper body injury, actually.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
If this was the NFL and Paul Maurice did that, he would get fined.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, hate the player. It's just the fact that I don't know when he's going to return, and I hate that. Because now we've got to rely on whoever the Panthers are going to send up from Charlotte.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
They're going to shelter him real good. He needs a little more season, but good that he's getting... He's a former first-round pick. Yeah, you're just saying. Last night. In Columbus. That one, I don't want to say by the skin of the teeth. I mean, it was a goaltenders duel. That was as exciting a 0-0 game you're going to get. That was a great game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
How long has it been since the Panthers have gone to overtime without scoring a goal? It was at Columbus six years. Five or six years. Also at Columbus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Manna is in the shooting lane as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Alexander Barkov is who he is because he's a playmaker. He's great defensively. I mean, he's bound to get another Selkie trophy and has an excellent shot, which he does not use often enough, especially his backhand, and it's very, very good to see him
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Well, the good news is that Alexander Ovechkin will not break the all-time goal scoring. Probably not. Unless, of course, he scores seven, which I doubt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Let's dive further into this matchup between the Capitals. Because, I mean, you look at that team. Tom Wilson is having a career year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
30 goals. I mean, it's a career high. He is one away from a career high in assists, and he has a career high in 57 points this season. And, of course, the Capitals are tied for the President's Trophy right now with 100 points. They got a game in hand, so they're at the top of the table. And they have one more regulation win, so they got the tiebreaker there. It's a good team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
And as much as it's been a surprise for the Capitals this season, They are a really good team, especially at goaltending.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
The division of regular season stats.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. Back to back, by the way, between Saturday at Washington and Sunday at home when they finally return against the Pittsburgh Penguins, I have nothing to say about them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yeah, that's great. Ann Anverk and David Pignano was on the show. You can watch that on YouTube for those who are watching on DKN. Okay, goodbye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Amazing. All right, let's get to the video portion of this segment. We have a video of two fans at a Capitals game. From 20 years ago and most recently. So these fans were kids when they showed up to this Capitals game in 2005 with foam eights on their head. And 20 years later, as grown-ass men, they showed up to a Capitals game. Now those foam eights have autographs on them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
And they are celebrating Alexander Ovechkin. Now, Alessandro Veskin scored last night. He now has 888 goals in his career. That's seven away from breaking the record. 888 goals for the grade eight. Is he going to hit 1,000?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
I think he's gone.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Imagine if he drags it out. He's got his own private jet. In Utah, apparently Mikhail Sergachev has a chicken farm. And he's giving eggs. He's a smart guy. Yeah, he's giving eggs to his teammates. In a tweet from Bill Frazier, who's in the locker room, I just have a lot of eggs. Once we hit like 24, 30 eggs, I start giving them away to my teammates. Obviously, I feed them well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
I take care of them. Now there's a shortage of eggs, so guys appreciate it more. Now, eggs are expensive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
There was another tweet from that presser, Nick Buckstead, apparently had a comment that... Another former Panther. What's expected by chickens like that? Yeah, Buckstead said to him... about Sokachev's chickens potentially having bird flu. You should check that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
He disrespected my chickens like that. I still gave him eggs because he said his wife went to the store and there were no eggs.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
And I'm going to extend my Islanders shit talk streak on this show, even though it's been a bad week. I was wondering if you were going to get to that. Yeah, I got no choice. I got to continue the streak, no matter what happened with the Panthers this week. But here's a video, and there's sound on this, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Here's a video of an Islanders fan chirping at John Tavares, who made his return on the Island.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Loser team. Loser fan base. Islanders this season. You've got to make smart acquisitions. Yeah. As soon as that one acquisition, as soon as that one release, I should say, happens, I will be on that ass. I think I saw him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Welcome to the Hockey Show. My name is Roy Bellamy. David Dwork is to my left. He works for the Hockey News. Ethan is in the chair over there in the shipping container.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
And he deserves it. He had two assists last game, by the way. So, yeah, there's that, too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
No, I was a catcher, so I had to make sure that was maintained properly. You know, tin cup over here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Talk Dirty To Me About John Tavares
Yep, just like that. My win of the week earlier this week, the Seattle Kraken held what they called an oops all goalies game. And their goaltender, Joy Drecord, dropped the ceremonial first puck. It's really a real sight to behold to see dozens. Of fully padded goaltenders out there playing like the position players. It's a beauty, man.

Wins, goals against, shutouts. I mean, regardless of if... The Jets win the President's Trophy. The way the Oilers played this season, they're pretty low in the standings right now. Really, it should be a hell of a trophy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Yeah, haircuts apparently are $50 now. Dude, they're expensive.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Well, they kind of changed up the acronym on that now in the press release that the Department of Defense, they said discriminatory equity ideology. It's remarkable. That's incredible.

It was a bad day for the ACC. Hand up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Louisville let me down. Will Wade, I thought he had one foot out the door already to NC State. One foot up Clemson's ass is what he had, buddy. Again, you missed that one too. But, you know, with the ACC, it's North Carolina, it's Duke. We got those two teams today. We're going to carry the conference on our back, and we're going to bounce back. Get out of here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
It's almost like they forget why he got court-martialed in the first place. He was on an Army bus. As a commissioned officer, by the way, a second lieutenant, he was told to go to the back of the bus. Right. And he got court-martialed for not doing that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Because he went on Twitter last night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
He said that you need to separate politics from sports. And you shouldn't talk politics on sports shows. Well, that's what we're doing right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: This IS Sports...
Literally the most important athlete in the history of sports.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Technologically, it was awful. I mean, everybody sounded bad because everybody was using their laptop microphones. But yeah, it was not a good sound. Still had to get our advertising in. Still had to do a show somehow. The fact that we got that off the ground, to me, is just a miracle. Really?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
zoom the biggest winners out of all that because i'm sure everybody put money into their stock and it skyrocketed from there because nobody was using skype nobody was using teams zoom was the thing and i guess it provided the best audio out of everything so i just remembered like it was bad bad sounding microphones on a majority of these laptops and don't forget internet issues because you gotta deal with people who might have a better internet connection than others
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I was on a wireless, it was fine. So it was that too. So technologically, it was a tough time for everybody to get together and have audio quality that actually sounded good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
No one knowing what a catch is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
Well, it was tough because one thing, my wife and I went through a miscarriage during that time. So it was really tough. I had to bail out on one of the shows so I can rush her to the hospital to complete the miscarriage there. Obviously, if you know our story, she was pregnant four times. The first one was Claire. Second one was no development in that miscarriage.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And then she gave birth to Aria a couple of years later, who passed away six days after she was born. So, yeah, it was it was a tough time for me and Aneed and Claire. And aside from that, from a work aspect, because we didn't have an office at that time, I set up at the dining room table. So I had all my stuff. I was the only one that really had a microphone because I bought it off of Amazon.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
ESPN did not provide us with podcast mics like we do have right now. I had my little microphone arm and it's right in front of me. I'm at the dining room table. I got my toast right here, my tea. I'm looking at this Zoom screen with nine boxes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
I'm just waiting my turn, trying to make sure that we don't talk over each other, which is another thing because communication at that point on Zoom, really, really tough. You got to go through the chat box and everything. So you got to make sure your fingers up. Hey, I'm going to go here. So that was the whole communication thing. And Dan himself needed Mike for everything to work technologically.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show: Episode 12
And yeah, he didn't really know anything about it. Yeah, that time was really tough for us as a show, but then we started getting used to it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
So is Demko and Lackanen going to be sort of a Bob and Spencer Knight type of deal here if Vancouver was better than what they are this year?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Yeah, just him. Absolutely. Maybe Sanderson offensively, but yeah, definitely Slavin.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
All right, one power play in this game. It was basically playoff officiating. They weren't going to call anything egregious, unless it was egregious. So that power play went to Canada. The penalty kill, that penalty kill was pretty good because Jack Eichel's play. He had his Kevin Stenland moment.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
And Matthew Kachuk got hurt in the first matchup, and he gave it a go for a period and a half and couldn't do it anymore. And that is bad news for the Florida Panthers. It looks like he might be out for a little bit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
All right, we'll talk about how the Panthers did in the entire tournament. And we are going to talk to Sarah Sivian of the Civ Report and Too Many Men about the Four Nations tournament coming up next.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Sarah Sivian joins us from the Civil Report and Too Many Men. And as David's in the airport and the airport announcements continue, they were both in Boston for the Four Nations final, which turned out to be a significant event for Canada in this situation. But how is the atmosphere in the arena at TD Garden? Because it was pretty palpable for the entire week from both locations based on
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
the political thing, basically, that happened with the United States. So how was the atmosphere in TD Garden during the game?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
That was the goal that Reimer gave up on that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Okay, obviously we're going to get into the four nations in a second, but apparently Rose has some sort of hot take that we actually have to get into. So go ahead.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
With the politics being driven up and affecting things in both of the countries, it pretty much seems that the Johnny Goudreau memorial for the United States team got overshadowed by all this nonsense. Do you agree?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Give us a sense at how angry the Boston Bruins are at Team USA based off of the injury of Charlie McEvoy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Yeah, you are absolutely right. And you are absolutely right. I like Ethan's idea of a best of three.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

I know, you were the catalyst. You were the catalyst.

I've kind of been saying this all week, Rosie, but it's okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Wow. Rose is happy. Rose is happy because of Alexander Barkov, but Sweden is classic. I mean, you got the three crowns, the accent on the sleeves to make it look like the Swedish flag. It's not an alcohol bottle. Okay. Come on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Four Nations final was last night. It was a spectacle. It was an epic. And, of course, it went into overtime. It was like a script was written. I was right, saying everybody take Canada as the underdog at plus one and a half. And, obviously, they went into overtime. So if you pick that one, you won money. So you're welcome. But let's start with the national anthems. Okay, O Canada was booed.

All right, everybody, let's go over how the Panthers did in this tournament. I got some stats here, just some counting stats or whatever.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
I'm talking about statistics over here, David. That's all I'm doing. I'm sorry. All right, let's go over to Finland contingent. Eetu Luserainen. Ita Luserainen with just an assist. He was a minus two. Nico Mikula, assist. He was a plus two. Anton Lundell, a goal. He was a zero. And Alexander Barkov. Jesus, I'm getting to it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
A goal and an assist and a plus one. Finland did not do well. The entire team did not do well in this tournament. But how did the Panthers do, guys?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
No, we are not done. For Sweden, Gustav Forsling had zeros across the board offensively. He was basically primary defense on that one. How do you think he played?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
All right. That's all you got. United States, Matthew Kachuk, two goals and assist plus three. Unfortunately, his playing time was diminished with the injury. Aside from that. I mean, it's pretty obvious.

The white zone is for loading and unloading passengers only.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
It was booed from the beginning. And I'm sure it got booed louder because that rendition sucked. Absolutely was horrendous. Do you guys agree with that?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Yeah, okay. It's Canada. Sam Reinhardt, no goals, four assists. He was a plus one. Sam Bennett, a goal and no assists and a minus one. What? What'd you say?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
We didn't say bye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
I'm not done. All right? Go. Go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
No, no, no, no, no, no. Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.

The regular season starts back up again for Florida versus the Seattle Kraken at home. The Kraken, four wins in the last ten in a previous matchup. Panthers won in a shootout, 2-1, and they outshot and outhit them by a wide, wide margin. But the injuries, that's going to be significant coming into this game. And that's pretty much it. We don't really have to do anything other than that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Bye! And Josh Mahura. We're saying goodbye now. And Josh Mahura, obviously, as well. That's it for this week. That's it for the Four Nations. We are back to regular season hockey coming up this weekend. Rose, Ethan, Dave, live from the Boston Airport, Logan Airport. My name is Roy. We'll see you next week. Okay, goodbye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Well, this is what happens when you get international tournaments going, you know. If this was a regular season game, this probably wouldn't be an issue, but... The way the rhetoric went, I mean, obviously that happened. John Butch Gross on Twitter said, I hope Canada plays like that lady just sang for the rendition of Oh Canada. That did not happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Now, for the Star Spangled Banner, the Boston Pops came out there, and I got to tell you, that was fantastic. The anthem singer that sang the United States National Anthem, she knew she owned that shit, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Well, no, the Blackhawks do the applause. Right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Absolutely amazing. Yeah, that was goosebumps. I'm telling you right now, I wish I had the video of the lady singing, but at the end, between Home of the and then Brave, she looked around and then gave a hit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Yeah, she took a moment, did the head nod. Oh, yeah, I got that. That got me fired up. That got me fired up.

This is like in the WWE when The Rock comes to Miami and goes to Sunrise. And he says, finally, The Rock has come back. He stops. Everybody says to Miami a full audio, but he says home at the end because he's back home because he went to University of Miami. That's the sort of thing that happened. By the way, by the way,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
If you bet the over, if you think the over hit on O Canada, oh boy, it definitely hit on the Stealth Mingo banner because that thing went, oh, it was like two minutes.

Hello, welcome to the Hockey Show. I'm Roy. Rose is in David's seat because David is in Boston. Ethan is in the EP chair. He's giving a wave. A small bit of news just happened just now. David, you have details on a signing.

I think that's a social media clip right there.

Did you say honey?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
All right, going into the game now. We're going to talk about the actual game now. 55-35. The first goal for Canada, the first goal of the game, Canada did something that they really didn't do in the first matchup, which was create traffic and screen Connor Hellebuck, and that's exactly how they ended up scoring.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
And Nathan McKinnon was able to skate freely and got a quick shot off, and that got past the best goalie in the world currently.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: I Don't Know Hockey, I Just Know Barky
Except for Jacob Slavin, the defense for the United States was pretty awful. And they turned the puck over. And their neutral zone play wasn't exactly great either. And they left kind of hella bugged out the drive for a lot of this game, especially in front of the net. Like, dude, protect your goaltender. Clear out the crease. Like, dude, what are we doing here?

Yeah, it came out and said, there's nothing wrong with Mark Williams. The Lakers were wrong about this. There's been independent doctors that have come in and basically cleared Mark Williams of, hey, this guy has not damaged goods. Because the other thing is, he's coming up on a contract this upcoming year.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
And you look around saying, well, if the Lakers denied a trade, why do we pay him any money? What leverage do the Hornets have at all? So that post by Jeff Schwartz was like, all right, wait a second. Mark Williams is good. The Lakers just kind of had buyer's remorse.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Well, me and the boys are here in the sauna just hanging out. We got Mike. We got Mally obviously here flexing, doing his thing. We've got Ethan who's – sorry, a lot of sweat here. Ethan in a jersey for some reason inside the sauna. Just never stops wearing a hockey jersey. Yeah, a lot of jersey there for the kid.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
All right, Mike, you haven't been paying attention to the NBA, but I want to tell you this, okay? SGA minus 500 to win the MVP. Really? Minus 500 to win the MVP. He's been arguably the best player on the planet. And the reason why I am going to make this a hot take is because I don't think he should win the MVP.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Shea Gillis Alexander, or Shane Gillis Alexander, as Dan likes to call him, should not win the MVP. The MVP should go to Nikola Jokic. Now, I know you're going to tell me, Mike, I know you're not watching the NBA. Obviously, he's the best player on the planet. He's the best player in the world. Of course, he should win the MVP.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
The reason why, and I want to bring in Jeremy, too, to help me with this, because I know he's in on the analytics and the numbers. Jokic, when he's on the floor, a lot of sweat in this sauna.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
All right, so Jokic, don't touch me, Mally. Jokic is the best player on the planet, and his offensive rating, when him and the Nuggets are on the floor together, when he's on the floor, is one of the greatest of all time, right? The best net offensive rating were the Celtics of last year. When Jokic is on the floor with the Nuggets, they are the best team offensively maybe ever, okay?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
When he's off the floor, they are as good as... Here you go, Mally. Use that, buddy. But watch out. Here you go. Thank you. Okay. When Jokic is off the floor, they are basically the equivalent of the 2015-2016 Philadelphia 76ers, who were obviously the tank teams, who were terrible. So Jokic, even though he's won three out of four MVPs... Man, it's a lot of sweat. Even though it is hot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Uh, Ethan, why don't you take off that, uh, that sweater? There you go. Ethan's gonna take it off now. Here we go. Do you think Mally... He's got another shirt underneath. Do you think Mally shaves his chest? Do you shave your chest, Mally?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, he does, he does. That's more my speed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Oh, a little chest hair on the boy. Okay, so, with that, Nikola Jokic should win a fourth MVP in the last five years because he is literally the greatest player on the planet, and if you take him off the Nuggets... They are terrible. They are the worst team maybe in the last decade of offensive rating. Jeremy, can you back me up on these claims?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yeah, I didn't know if it was a flush.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
I didn't know if it was a dookie bomb. I don't know what happened there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: The Sounds of Saunas
Yes. Yes. Theoretically, yes, which is why it's a hot take, right? You go full circle on, well, he's the best player in the world. Obviously, he should win the MVP, but then there's somebody who's got more. Damn it. Mally's just sweating all over the place. Mike, you want to come in here and switch plays with me so you can be next to Mally?

Well, I'm actually really loving this segment. And it sparked a side conversation continued from our conversation yesterday that Amin and I had where, OK, well, we all agree. Everyone knows something's wrong with basketball. The numbers indicate this and true leadership pushes the sport along. So what can we find consensus on? Because, yes, three is bigger than two. We get that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Well, it seems like the Panthers are keeping pace with Toronto's poor play right now. But before we get into the Panthers, I want to get into the Penguins, who have officially waived Tristan Jari.

I think we as a collective hockey community are cheering for the Columbus Blue Jackets for obvious reasons. But we did not see them doing this well. I mean, they won six in a row. They won eight games out of the last ten. I got them as the dark horse out of the East, ousting Boston. You don't see the Canadiens making the playoffs. Do you see the Red Wings possibly making the playoffs?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
This is going up, so you better start. Let's start with Saturday's game against the Boston Bruins. That was on national television, and it was a fun one to watch until the very end. So they ended regulation with that Sam Reinhardt goal with one second left, and then they ended overtime with that. Going out, went off at Sam Reinhardt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
That was credited to David Pasternak with, what, three seconds left.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
It's been a week of poor officiating as well because in that game, you saw A.J. Greer basically have to fight off four Bruins. And somehow the Bruins end up with a power play in that sequence. Which was just ridiculous. It's been a bad week of officiating against the Panthers. It's not the only time that happened.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
That's too bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
So Saturday, they lost to the Bruins 4-3 in overtime. They lose to the Flyers 4-3 in regulation. They had a two-goal lead. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
We're not done. Officer Rose on the case. Back-to-back games for Sam Reinhardt with two goals. Yeah, he's been the one scoring so far, but he did not score in the game versus New Jersey where Panthers won in the shootout. That was a stellar game by Spencer Knight in that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, we got to save these dogs, man. We got to get Benny's buddies over here back in the cold.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah. Spencer Knight in the game versus New Jersey. What are you doing? Come on, what are you doing? I'm over here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Spencer Knight stopped 26 to 27 shots in all seven of the doubles' high danger chances, so the Panthers' defense was very good in that game as well. The Panthers, on the other hand, offensively, only had two high danger chances going into the third. So the Devils defense was pretty good going into the third period.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Up until the very first high-danger chance of the third period, which was Carter Verhage's fantastic pass to Jesper Brovkrist.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah. Thursday versus Detroit. That was one to forget. Bob got pulled. Yeah, Bob got pulled. I mean, that wasn't even his fault. You don't give up three power play goals to the number two power play in the league and expect to win.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
And the Red Wings are 8-2-0 since Todd McClellan took over.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, and I don't believe any of these games had Aaron Ekblad in it at all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, that's really affecting the power play as well. This is the first meeting of the season for the Ducks and the Panthers, and the Ducks are 4-2 in the last 10. Everybody seems to be playing well right now, except the Panthers. Except for the Panthers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Keeping pace with the Maple Leafs. Yeah. So that's the situation with the Panthers. Thank you for basically distracting all of us in the studio.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Thank you for that information as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
My name is Roy Bellamy. That's David Dwork. I'm Rose. Ethan, Rose, bye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, I guess the same could be said about Cole Caulfield in Montreal, talking about best friends and everything.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, the number change kind of changed everything for him in that situation. My hot take is from the Devils-Panthers game earlier this week. The hit by Matthew Kachuk on Nico Heischer was clean. I don't care what anybody else says.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
It apparently is because I've been fighting with everybody.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
I had to explain the rules here when it comes to checking. In this situation, and we're showing this on video as a loop here. First, that's not interference. That was the call on the ice. It was interference. Nico, he should touch the puck before Matthew Kachuk hit him, right? Matthew Kachuk hit him up high, but it was in the chest. It was not in the head. Nope.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
And, of course, they're all saying that he left his feet. No, he left his feet. After contact. That's the major contention that everybody seems to be having. That's not charging. That, of course, by the way, was not the call on the ice. It was not charging.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
There's zero reason why the devil should have been on a power play in that situation considering that jump. That's the other thing. No, he was in a headlock. Yeah. You're going to call roughing on him for that?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
But call it interference though, which is obviously not what happened because he sure touched the puck there. That is terrible officiating. You just made up a penalty. No me gusta, Rose. No me gusta. It's not good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
They already have karaoke battles. That's every single band at the NHL books for these things.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
You could just ask me the question.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah. Yeah, that's great, man. Again, go to Nebias. But this one is a good one. Dude.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
I'm sorry. I apologize. My win of the week. Now, as I said before... Please be a goalie. No, it is not a goaltender. It is actually Alexander Ovechkin. Now, as I said before, humans love dogs more than they love people. And with good reason, because people are stupid. No. What do you mean no? People suck. People suck. People suck. People absolutely suck. You don't suck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, you're good. You're a person. You are a good person. But people as a whole... The bad, bad, bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Deceived, okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
So Ovechkin and dogs? Yeah, Ovechkin and dogs. Apparently, him going to the Capital One Arena earlier this week, he met up with a couple of dogs by the name of Maxine, otherwise known as Mad Max, who was put on his back in a backpack. Aww. And another dog by the name of Hammy, who he was on a leash and he walked. Now, this is just wholesome content here that you can see on video.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
So Alexander Ovechkin, he's walking his dog. He's giving it a treat. And the dog on his back, Max, is wearing sunglasses.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Yeah, I mean, it's embroidered.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Dogs definitely don't shit everywhere.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
No. No, it's not like a friend of mine took her dog to the office and it shit in the office and she had to pick up the shit. I mean, that didn't happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Does he have to be shit on before every game? It would be the shit trick. That's what that would be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
You realize you play teams, right? So you want to be the Panthers?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
The situation on that empty net goal that was awarded because it wasn't a shot on goal, it was a breakaway, and it was a penalty. There was no goaltender in the crease to stop it, so they awarded the goal aside from a penalty shot because there was no goaltender in the crease. I like it. Yeah, that's the rule. That's what happens in this situation. Protecting goalies.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
It makes me think about the Panthers-Islanders playoff series. I don't think that it was a breakaway that Vincent Trochek had. No. But he was stripped.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Sorry to bring up that bad memory. It's my fail of the week. And this is a story that is delivered by, quote unquote, the second best goaltender of all time, Martin Brodeur.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Oh my God. I mean, it is debatable. That was from the Cam and Strick podcast. It is legitimately debatable. It's 1-2 in this situation. It might be 1-A, 1-B.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Well, here's the situation on that, though. I mean, the counting stats, you give it to Monta and Brodeur, but when it comes to head-to-head, and they've only played each other in the playoffs seven times because that was the Stanley Cup playoff. The Stanley Cup final, I should say. That goes to Patrick Waugh. And that one, I think that was his fourth Stanley Cup. And that one put him over.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
That was also the Ray Bork year, I believe. Yeah. The 2000 year. Yep. So, yeah, that one I think goes to Ra on that one, Ethan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
Was he trying to avoid... I don't know what he was doing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Is Nathan MacKinnon Better Than Connor McDavid?
exaggerated slip on the banana peel situation there. That's just not making any sense. Not going to fall for the banana in the tailpipe. You take these bananas. Coming up next, we have Adnan Virk from Prime Monday Night Hockey. We got our monthly check-in with him coming up next.

The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Well, Tony is a good man. We know him around here, and you've been excellent on that show, and we are going to miss that show. So let's get into hockey right quick. It's been a long week down here. I'm tired, all right? David's tired. Ethan in there, he's, I don't know what's going on with that guy. He's got a beard.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Because the Florida Panthers got Brad Marchand and subsequently Aaron Eckblad got suspended. So yeah, it's been that long of a week. So based on all the moves that has happened over the past, I would say two weeks, who won and who lost the trade deadline?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Let's start with the good. Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther now. And I swear to goodness, it's just weird to me. First, the news. We're at the practice facility waiting for Bill Zito. And then that news happened.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Excuse me? That was not a- See, that was the worst thing that we say on the show.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah, nothing. That's crazy, man. And then we're hearing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
The New Jersey Devils beat the Edmonton Oilers, and the Oilers are – we're going to get into them in a little bit because they've been bad. But the Devils also have been mediocre. They've been hovering over 500 – around 500 over the last 16 games, and Columbus is trying to catch up with them. They're six points behind for third place in the Metro. They lost Jack Hughes for the season.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Speculative.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
He's not going to be back into the training camp. Jonas Siegenthaler is done for the regular season. He might come back. Dougie Hamilton, we don't even know when he's going to show up. So the Devils have lost two defensemen. Where do you see them coming out at the end of the season?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
The Oilers, as we mentioned, are bad right now. They've lost 12 of their last 20. And the Kings are catching up to them for second place in the Pacific. Now, they got the Islanders.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Oh, the Kings are ahead of them now. Oh, well, that's how bad it's been then. But they got the Islanders tonight, and that should be an automatic win for them. And I say that because karma is going to get you, Islanders. It's going to get you. I got the streak. I still got the streak going, David. I got the streak going. You're okay. Thank you. Just wanted to make sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
I don't like the Islanders this year. I'm sorry. I understand. The all is, though, what's going to happen with them?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
And finally, the second wildcard spot for both conferences are jam-packed.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
It's a fun race. It's like four teams respectively in each conference competing for the last spot. And not the Panthers. And not the Panthers. So at the end of the season, who do you see grabbing the last spots in each conference?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Wow. And that's really that would be fun, though. Yeah. Yeah. That would be great.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah, absolutely. Fair enough. All right, Emily Kaplan, we are going to see you when you get down to Florida because, I mean, it's Florida Panthers. They're the defending champion. They're going to make the playoffs. Can't wait to see you coming back down here. It's great to have you on the show. Thank you, Emily.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
All right, it's time to go over the week that was as far as games played for the Florida Panthers. Let's start with Saturday. They won against Buffalo. It was 4-0. Vitek Panacek's first game as a Panther, he got a shutout. Now, as you can see, the differences between team defense with the San Jose Sharks and the Florida Panthers, vastly different. Vastly different.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
And the Panthers played their usual suffocating style. Granted, it is Buffalo. But, yeah, I mean, they pretty much shut them down early. A.J. Greer had a goal in a fight. It was a nice, boring game for the Panthers. Nothing to write home about.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah. But the complete opposite happened. In Boston on Tuesday, the Panthers lost 3-2, and all three of those goals for Boston came in the third. It was not good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
I mean, it's a very rare thing to see the Panthers blow a lead in the third period, and it was a two-goal lead at that, and they are now 28-3-0 when leading after two periods. But here's a very telling stat, since you brought up shots on goal for Buffalo on Saturday. Five on five in the third period for the Panthers. They had two shot attempts and one of them was stopped by Jeremy Swayman.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Two shot attempts. That's bad. On five on five in the third period. That's bad. That's not good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
It's like Chris Rittenham over here talking like he's British.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Nikita Zdorov is kind of a madman out there. Yeah, he finally got his fight against Sam Bennett.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
I mean, between the time of Bobby Orr and... Raymond Bork. And 2011, right? No, but I'm saying they've had great teams. They've had great players. I mean, the span of time between Bobby Orr and him winning the Stanley Cup that year, where he dove after scoring on the St. Louis Blues, to the time where Brad Marchand is at. I'm sorry, Sedano Chara is left in the Stanley Cup. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
That is a very long time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
And the other team that plays in that building.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
No, it could not have been.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
We're talking about banners. We don't talk basketball. I mean, they occupy the same building. Thursday, last night, yesterday, the big one. That was the big one right there. That was the litmus test. The Panthers played the Maple Leafs and won 3-2.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yes, the battle for first place in the Atlantic Division. Now, it was not a good start two minutes into the game giving up a goal like that, but they settled down. Yeah, they didn't give up another shot for a while after that. Yeah, Max Domi was a madman out there. He had a goal and an assist. It was a rush goal at that, and that somehow got passed by. I...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
And that's what ended up happening. Sure enough.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Max only scoring on you in a rush on a bad line change, mind you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah, that should not have happened.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Sam Bennett scored twice. He's got two pets adopted last night. On behalf of the Humane Society of Broward, Benny's Buddies has now helped adopt 22 pets this season. 21 goals for the Panthers. One for Team Canada, so that's 22. He is six goals away from his career high of 28 on the season. I want to talk about this play that was made by Seth Jones on the second goal that Sam Bennett scored.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Got my opposition on that one based on that play by Seth Jones keeping it in because they were expecting to go the other way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Sam Reinhart, Mackie Samuskiewicz, respectively, two assists in that game. They got two games left against the Toronto Maple Leafs on the season. The schedule makers is... What are we doing here? First of all, five back-to-back games for the Florida Panthers. That's one. And a lot of those games against the division. They still got three games against Montreal this season left.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah, two more against Toronto. The reward of being the champions. Yeah. Make our lives harder. Still the Panthers. Yeah, yeah. Still the Panthers. Still the Panthers. And plenty more T.J. Luxmore games to go. Tomorrow they play Montreal, who are a point behind the Blue Jackets for second in the wild card spot. Columbus lost 4-0 to Vegas, by the way, so they didn't gain any ground.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Montreal, after losing 8-0, Of nine, have won six of the last nine games. Yeah, turned it around a little bit. Yeah, getting high at the right time. Cole Caulfield, 32 goals. Nick Suzuki, 69 points. The Panthers lost their first matchup back in December for nothing. So that's what we're looking at tomorrow. Always fun going to the Bell Center. At the Bell Center.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
And a regulation one as well.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
So one and one on this road trip right now. And they're looking at trying to dispatch the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday. That's David Dwork. Ethan, thank you for producing. Rosie, we miss you. Mike Malley in the back along with Jason doing video. My name is Roy Bellamy. We will talk to you next week. Okay, goodbye. Who was that? Oh, is that Danny GQ as well?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Oh, we got an engineer back there as well. How about that? And, of course, they put themselves on TV because they're important. And Gino. Don't forget Gino.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah, man, I didn't see you because of Laura Third. Sorry, Gino. That's my bad. Okay, goodbye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
All right. Yeah, from the lock of souls to seeing him in Panthers gear and then seeing him on the ice in Boston doing line rushes with the first line, it's still weird.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah. Going to the bad, however, Aaron Ekblad was suspended for 20 games. He's 18 plus 2 in the playoffs. Yeah, 18 plus 2. So that's not good. So that makes the Seth Jones trade even bigger. Right. So, yeah, Seth Jones. Quickly, similar to how the Panthers are playing, he has done very well so far. He's just got to get used to his other pair.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
And right now, it's Gus Forsling until the foreseeable future. Well, his minutes have gone shooting up. Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
That was not good. That was a great pass by Nylander.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
You better not. All right. Let's get into the wins and failures of the week brought to you by Jägermeister. Serve it cold or don't serve it at all. Jägermeister. Damn, that's cold. For more, visit Jägermeister.com. Drink responsibly. David, what's your win?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
My win of the week is from Blackhawks Avalanche on Monday. Nathan McKinnon became the 100th player in NHL history to reach 1,000 career points. His 1,000th point came as a secondary assist on a drop pass. And the goal was by Arturi Lekkonen. He only gets 1,000 points this season. Yeah. He needs so many assists. So many Art Ross trophies, man. Good God.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Right now, the nearest active player to 1,000 points is Brad Marchand. 976 points. He will end up doing that next year. He's going to end up reaching that milestone next year. Whether it's with the Panthers or not, don't know. TBD, don't be surprised.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Superman punch and a Superman save. So it's him and it was Logan Thompson that made that save for the Capitals. Yes, it was. Yeah. So those are the saves of the year.

I don't see why, but she loves us. We have ESPN reporter Emily Kaplan on the show. And she will talk to us about the trade deadline and what's going on.

The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
My fellow of the week comes from Predators or Sharks on Tuesday. Now, listen, I know it's been a bad season for the San Jose Sharks. A little bit. And... Their future is bright. Yeah, their future is bright. Absolutely. Just not this season. But it's not bad enough for a fan to want to fight their mascot. This guy legitimately squared up against Sharky.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah. To his credit or her credit, depending on who's in the uniform, Sharky walked away. Sharky's the bigger fish. Yeah. But I would not have blamed him or her if she or he wanted to throw punches on that dude.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

We have the hardest working hockey reporter in all the land and around the horn Hall of Famer Emily Kaplan is joining us today. We're going to get into what happened during the trade deadline first. But as I said, she was on around the horn. She's been there. I would say about 150 appearances probably, and she's won 40 times, just about. It's a pretty solid winning percentage. Yeah, it's not bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Hey, listen, research.

And it's coming to an end soon. may 23rd i believe and that show has been on for just about 20 years now so yeah great yeah it's a great show uh and your time on it why don't you uh tell us about your time on it
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther
Yeah, there's a lot of hockey shows in the playlist. Yeah, I counted. There was 55 in that folder. I can't believe we've done 55. That's crazy. That's a lot. That's a lot. So let's get started. Let's drop the puck and talk about the news that the Florida Panthers have been in this week. And it's been a long week. A little bit of news. Yeah, a little bit of news. Good and bad.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
Is this in response to Shaq saying he doesn't watch the Pistons and everyone saying they need to be on more nationally televised games as a result because they're having this fun season, everyone starts talking about him, realizing some of the most important voices in the game haven't even watched him, and yet... Here we are.

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.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You're right. You know, to Tony's defense, Cade is one of two players, along with Nikola Jokic, who's top 10 in both assists and points this year. Wow.

Quote, the white people at Indian Wells, what they've been wanting to say all along to us finally came out. Quote, N-word, stay away from here. We don't want you here. So they boycotted it for 14 years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
Yeah, it was a 14-year boycott. 14-year boycott from 2001 to 2015. And then it ended.

Oh yeah, top five situational guys. No L-O-L-I's in this one.

What? Number three, Rudy Gobert. Two of the best on the same team. Number two, Christmas. And number one, 60-year-old Barry Bonds against right-handed pitching.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
Sure. How many turnovers? He's also, yeah, he's second in the league in turnovers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Don't Look Now
To Izzy's defense last night, if I want to just boost up your argument just for fun. Yep, last night, 9 for 25, 0 for 7 from three, four turnovers, and a loss to the Washington Wizards.

There is something funny, Tony, with the Pistons. Next week, the Pistons have now just had a nationally televised game added to their schedule. And that's here in Miami against the Heat next Wednesday. Now we know that more likely than not, ESPN is not deciding to put that game on the air because of the Heat. That's more of a Pistons thing. And when I saw that announced, I couldn't help but think,

The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Welcome to the Hockey Show. My name is Roy Bellamy. David Dwork's right here. He's from the Hockey News. Rosie is in the seat. And Ethan is in Montreal. Yeah, we're going to chisel him out of his hotel up there in a few minutes. Yeah, he's on ice right now. And Dan Burke from Prime Monday Night Hockey joins us here. And we're going to get started with our Snapshots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
the Sweden-Canada game, and now he's done for the tournament, and who knows how long he's going to be done for to go to Knights. So what would you say is the level of fear that the general managers have going into this tournament about an injury?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Talk about how Mike Sullivan put his lines in a blender during this game because the Kachuk boys dominated that game, and it was basically because they got paired together in the middle of the game. Mike Sullivan said he wasn't expecting to play them at all together in this game, and they finally decided to do it. I don't understand the logic and thinking.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I guess he wanted to spread things out throughout the four lines, but talk about his coaching in this tournament so far.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Yeah, fellas and lady. I'm really starting to think that this Four Nations tournament is not for the cast grab that I thought it was going to be for the NHL. No, it was specifically created. Once again, show Sidney Crosby down our collective throats. I am tired of this shit. I mean, this all started with the injury, the upper body injury that I sustained last week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Boy, that John Cooper's kind of biased, isn't he?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Go with what you know, right? Yeah, I guess so.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
And it was all, is he going to play? Is he going to play? Is he going to play? And made us wait until, what, the first day of practice to finally determine, yes, I am going to play. After saying, why? I mean, I'm trying to talk here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
You know, I really, really dislike mentioning this man, but I have no choice because the way people tell it on Wednesday, Sidney Crosby had the biggest three assists in the history of Team Canada. I mean, my entire timeline was filled with just, I was about to say the word I told you last night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I'm not going to do that right now, but yeah, it was just a complete love fest on Valentine's Day today for Sidney Crosby. Like, how would you grade his level of play on Wednesday?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Oh, okay. No Sidney Crosby. I thought Rosie was chirping you, but she was giving me a rub.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Yeah, that must be really weird to have the cheer film on Team Canada. Quite frankly, you should be feeling the same way I do. Oh, for sure.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Thank you. Thank you. You're rubbing off. Thank you for being on my side. And the first game, obviously, Sweden versus Canada. It was just three assists, all right? They made it seem like it was the greatest three assists in the history of Canadian hockey.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Anthony DeMarco covering the Four Nations Tournament for the Daily Face-Off. Thank you for joining us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
All right, it's time to talk about how the Panthers did this week. We're going to start with Saturday versus Ottawa. It was the Kachuk Bowl, and the Panthers won 5-1. Both Kachuks ended up scoring in that game. Matthew Kachuk also had two assists. He had a three-point night, and they put the puck on net in that game, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I mean, it was 11 shots on goal for Brady Kachuk on 13 attempts and eight shots on goal. in 11 attempts for Matthew Kachuk. And that trend would continue into last night for Four Nations. Yeah. Yeah, it was a dominating night for the Panthers, especially in that second period when they scored four.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Ethan is currently in Montreal right now, so he was able to see, I will hope, both games. Did you see both games?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
You remember that viral video of the guy who was being interviewed and his two kids end up walking in a room and he's a baby.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I didn't even say anything. Did you see how we weren't going to let that go even though you powered through that? Yeah. All right, let's go into Wednesday in the first game of the Four Nations Tournament. I'm not going to mention the other guy. Team Canada. Not the Canadians. Team Canada won 4-3 in overtime, so they got two points out of the deal. Swinton got one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
We're going to talk about the Panthers in this situation. Sam Banner was scratched. Sam Reinhardt played. He was a minus one. He was better defensively than he was offensively, obviously. Three shots on goal. He had a block to give away and one hit. Now, Gustav Forsling is getting a lot of flack about how he played Sidney Crosby.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I said I was going to mention him, but I have to mention him because I got to mention Gustav Forsling getting the flack. Now, the second assist that Sidney Crosby had in the game, Gustav Forsling played that as perfectly as humanly possible. Unfortunately, Cindy Crosby... Was able to pass the puck anyway.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Yeah. Sweden started to take over in the second period. We started to see that momentum start to rise a little bit. And then they had the two-goal period and tied the game in that fourth overtime, which we got to see the new rules.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
All right, so last night, the United States beat Finland 6-1. As I mentioned earlier about the Kachuk Bowl, both Kachuk boys ended up being offensive juggernauts in that game. Both of them respectively scored two goals. They basically look like the father out there, just out there wreaking havoc.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I always have to say, just like most of the Panthers games, all the scrums happen when they're on the line, on the ice. Now, what I saw, though, was they weren't playing together at the beginning of the game. And Mike Sullivan said that they weren't going to play together during this game. He changed his mind. He absolutely changed his mind.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
The coaching by Mike Sullivan in that one did not make sense to me at all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Shut up. Matthew Kachuk and Nico Mikula is going to have a nice little laugh once they get back to Panthers practice because Kachuk's first goal deflected off a Nico Mikula stick. Too bad for him. Finland, Sweden, and Canada, USA tomorrow. The standings right now, the United States are leading on the table with three points. Canada has two points, Sweden with one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Finland has yet to win, so they have zero points. Goose egg. Goose egg. So, the big thing is, United States, they have to win. If they win on Saturday, they're guaranteed a spot in the final. That's it. Now, if Canada wins in overtime...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Yeah. If Sweden wins, they will have four points. Correct.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Whoa. Listen, Adnan, it was a line change. It was a reset at the line. And it was offside. It was offside. What are we doing here? Get the hustle back to the bench. Oh, get out of here. And also, I'm tired of hearing the words best on best.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Yeah, and if that happens, the third game in this round-robin, the final round-robin game...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I'm done with this. All right, we'll see you guys next week. Happy Valentine's Day, blah, blah, blah. Okay, goodbye.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I guess. Too much vodka over there. My win of the week is coming from the Flames-Jets game last week. Praden Prashal caught a high stick from Mark Shifley and had some choice words from him. This has sound, Rosie, so you're going to have to put that up.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I love it. So Mark Shifley famously does not swear, unlike the three of us in this studio. So initially, he did use an F-bomb, but we didn't have the sound potted up there. And then once he saw that Shifley was there, He flipped the switch on that. So that's the winner of the week because it's funny to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
You know this as well as anybody. Back in the 90s and 80s when they played theatrical movies on television and they had to edit out the The cursing, it sounded as ridiculous as flipping.

Yeah, exactly. Especially snakes on a play. Mother flipping snakes on his mother flipping plane. On this Monday to Friday. Fail of the week. David, please.

I have been waiting for this one. Okay. All week, boy. All right. So by now, all of you know my feelings about the New York Islanders signing of Tony D'Angelo. And you guys obviously know my feelings about... the man, Tony D'Angelo. And I won't go into it here, but... That's what spicy takes, Roy. You agree with Brad Marchand, basically. Yes, yes, yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
The only time I will agree with Brad Marchand. Tony D'Angelo, in front of his own net, with an own goal. It wasn't just a deflection. It wasn't a deflection. It was a straight-up shot into his own net.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
So allow me to laugh at this. Ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha. You're not going to do the ha, ha?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
I'm tired, man, all right? I'm sorry, but it's been a long week. It's been a long week for me. So, Adnan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy's 4 Nations Theory
Oh. Oh, yeah, go ahead. Rose, what's your fail of the week?

Coming up next, Nick Alberga from the NHL is going to join us to talk about trade deadline day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
You know who does this right? Major League Baseball. Because they do trades in-game. And once the trade comes down, the phone calls to the dugout.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I think our burger works for the NHL, and it's trade deadline day, so we are going to go through the trades right quick. But before we do that, nobody talks about the human aspect of these things, of being traded from team to team. And this tweet from Alexi Brown, who's the Seattle Kraken's analyst, JT Brown's wife. Basically sums it up perfectly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
We always see these players as commodities that you can keep and drop and transfer, right? So we never talk about them being traded. So this tweet from Lexi Brown. The worst part of the trade deadline is when you get your bestie traded. Like, I don't care if her husband is almost an unrestricted free agent having the season of his career and has been traded to a cup contender.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!

Her and I have brunch this weekend. This is a family situation, right? The kids are in school and everything. I mean, it's the middle of February. It's the middle of school for them. So what exactly happens when a player gets traded? How does the family react to this, Nick?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Can you imagine a line change?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
That's crazy. My hot take is we still don't know what goaltender interference is. That's not a hot take, Troy. No, I love it. I love it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
All right, let's talk about what the Florida Panthers did just this week. Over the span of six days, all right, it was started March 1st. They got Seth Jones in a fourth-round pick in 2026 from Chicago for Spencer Knight in a 2026 first-round pick. Now they traded Knight. They needed a backup goaltender. They had to call out Chris Drieger. Now, to do that...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
They needed money in the salary cap, so they had to make a little move of Matthew Kachuk going to a long-term injured reserve. So they had to do that to get the money. They signed Jesper Bokrest to a two-year contract, and then they acquired Vitek Vanacek from San Jose for Patrick Giles. They signed Jesse Pugliavi to a two-way contract.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
And then they acquired Nico Sturm in a 2027 seven-round draft pick from San Jose. for a 2026 fourth-round pick and acquired Kapo Kakanen from the Jets for Chris Drieger. Sending him back home. Sending him back home. So, yeah, kind of busy. And they're not done because they have $4.1 million left in the cap to make a move. What do you think is going to happen?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
We know what a balk in baseball is, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I'll explain the balk rule to you later, but this is from Flames Panthers. All right. And the Panthers have a streak on of— Goals being challenged.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
That wasn't a save. That was a goal. What happened with that? What was going on with Vladar? Kevin Ball forced Carter Verhage into the crease, right? Forced him into the crease. Did not allow him to exit. This has been happening recently.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Finally, the New York Rangers have scratched and clawed their way back to a playoff spot. They are tied with the Ottawa Senators. Currently, Ottawa has a game at hand. That's why they owned the wildcard spot. What are they going to do during this trade deadline? Because they've already put Chris Kreider on IR.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
It's a busy day for you, Nick. We appreciate you joining us.

And remember to check Jagermeister out at DraftKingsXJagermeister.com.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
All right, so I'm going to what the Panthers did this week as far as games played. And we're going to start with Saturday's game against the Calgary Flames, which they won 3-0. And that was Ryan Lumberg's return. And that was a special one because Lumberg, they gave him the video, the trivia video, and then he did a lap.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
And that was the only positive moment for the Flames in that game because, as Ethan said, they were completely dominated. I mean, look at the counting stats here. The Panthers had 42 shots on 76 attempts. The Flames had 23 shots on 42 attempts. So they knocked them down defensively. Scoring chances, it was 41-12 in favor of the Panthers and 16-9 high danger. That's just terrible.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
And the Flames are not that far away. I mean, they're really, really close to the last spot in the playoffs in the Western Conference. It's been bad for them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, we'll get to that in a little bit, but first... The big game. Yeah, the game against Tampa. It was a bit quiet in that game, though. I mean, not a lot of fisticuffs in that game, in my opinion.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
All right, so do you want position players' sticks to not have black tape because that's hiding the puck?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, Seth Jones' first game with the Panthers, although his first, I would say the first period was not great for him or Nico Mikula. Mikula took two penalties in that period, and they weren't good ones either. But, hey.

The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
And there's no rule against that either. Okay, all right, fine.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
All right, fine. Go. Fine. All right, the Lightning wrote an eight-game winning streak into that game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah. That's way too low. You need to boost that up, by the way. All right. Yeah. There's my hot take on your hot take. All right. Ethan.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I don't know why it just doesn't feel terrifying to me. It doesn't feel terrifying anymore to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I'm saying us. Biased. Yeah. By the way, Alexander Barkov, as Rosie pointed out earlier in the show, two goals.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, we need more aggressive Barkov because he needs to shoot the puck. He's been too passive. You know, he's been trying to set up his teammates. He's been trying to set up Ryan Hardy. He can do it all.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
They played Columbus. That was also a big game. Another playoff team. Yeah, another playoff team. And Panthers won 3-0. And that was a special team theme to this one because... Really, the Panthers bullied Columbus. But earlier in this game, three penalties in the first six minutes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
And one of them was from a challenge, which I understand why they tried to do it, but not in that situation after giving them two penalties.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, 16 saves for Sergey Bobrovsky. I mean, you could have picked anybody else for a star in that situation, actually, how good that defense was for the Panthers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, I think so. Jonah Gajewicz, two fights in the first period.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
You practiced that in the bathroom this morning.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Whoa, that's the breaking news sound.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I'm not done. Oh, sorry. For fuck's sake, dude. The Panthers have allowed more than two goals once in the last eight games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I don't know. I don't have that stat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, just one goal in the last eight games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
They haven't lost back-to-back games since January 11th and 13th. And since then, they've won 14 of the last 19. They have had one losing streak this season. It was a four-game losing streak earlier in the season. They've only lost back-to-back games five times this season. So when they lose, they quickly rebound.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
We got Buffalo. We. I said we again. It's okay. The Panthers have Buffalo on Saturday. That is tomorrow. Buffalo has lost five in a row, including last night when they blew a 5-3 lead.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
But still, it's just bad for no reason. Bad for no reason. I mean, they have to be bad. I feel bad for them. It's just terrible. It's terrible. This is as a...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
a fan of the Sabres growing up so I feel bad for him but that's tomorrow and that looks like a win for the Panthers and I said that in the first I said that for the first matchup against the Buffalo Sabres and of course that did not happen but anyway that's the show that's Dave that's Rose thank you very much for listening people I bye bye I'm trying to close the show here I mean come on
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
No, I don't have an ego. See, that's a backhanded hot take.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I appreciate you saying that. I'm 6'2", 190. That's the perfect height and weight for a hockey player. I think Claire's going to be better than me, though. I can tell you that right now. But I appreciate you saying that. I disagree. I think I'm going to suck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Oh, great. So that gets started around playoff time. So that's going to suck if there's a game on the same day.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Welcome to the Hockey Show. Thank you for joining us. My name is Roy. That's David. Rose and Ethan. All right. We are here. I don't want to hear any complaints about my intro.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, we're going to fake that. Yeah, yeah, I blocked the shot.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, you got to love a coach who chirps, man. Not like Mike Babcock or anybody like that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah. That's not a very good image to have on my head. Thanks. All right, my win of the week. Spencer Knight was traded from the Florida Panthers to the Chicago Blackhawks. He had his first game recently, and it was a special one, although the defensive front of Chicago probably should sure that up. 41 saves and a 5-1 victory over the Los Angeles Kings, and the team celebrating in the locker room.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Championship belt. Oh, yeah, it's a tool belt.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
It was better. That wasn't a complaint. That was a compliment. Okay. All right. We're backhanded. Slap shots. Hot takes. David, go.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, I missed that man already. I mean, he should have been the next one. Should have been the next one, but it didn't work out. But his time here, he's a Stanley Cup champion.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, I was originally a Blackhawks fan when I started following hockey and then added the Buffalo Sabres to that repertoire because they're in the Eastern Conference and then we got a hockey team. How did you get the
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
We don't need to go into it. This is playoffs. This is all playoffs. Because I started watching hockey when the playoffs started. So that's how that worked.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
It is a good uniform. Yeah. Yeah, it's a very good uniform. Ethan, your win of the week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
I'm sorry, but if you do that to a goaltender, that other team should get a power play.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
2 o'clock in the morning? The guy practiced.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
The banger. He was the banger of the drum.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Alexander Barkov had two goals in that game, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
The sequel, not even the original.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, like Terminator 2. Yeah, okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Terminator and Godfather are like the top of that list. Fails of the week, David. For crying out loud.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Yeah, if that was a wrister, even if that was a snapshot, that would be a lot worse.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
They didn't score on any power plays in that game. No, they did not. No, they did not. My fail of the week. The New York Islanders. This has been like three weeks in a row. Yes. Yes. We're going to start getting mail from the Islanders. Like, why are you hating on us so much? They know why I'm hating on them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
Poor Matt Barzal. I'm going to continue this into the regular season probably because embarrassing moments happen to them a lot. This is what happened to him. All right. So that did off his head. It's a great header. Yeah, I mean, exactly. That went off his head. The Islanders were at the Garden against the Rangers, and a deflected puck bounced off the head of Will Cooley and into the net.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: It's Deadline Day!
It's a shame he wasn't more headstrong. Now, the Islanders... Now the Islanders lost to the Rangers again. They are 0-3-0 against the Rangers. The Rangers are 3-0-0 against the Islanders this season and have won by a combined score of 14-3.

I still don't think he's showing up. Where's the wheel FX? I still don't believe it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
This is a terrifying look. He does look like a cat, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
So I can try and figure out who the dad is. I think it'll be pretty obvious. A decent guy. Decent guy. Michael Thompson. If he tells his name, we're going to try to figure it out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
We got a video, actually.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
There it is. Gotcha.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
This guy's heard a lot of drums. I'm telling you, he nailed it. Come on, you're going to have to defer to Chris Cody here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
No, I don't listen to, what's her name again? Chapel Roan, Pink Pony Club. What are we doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
I didn't say, of course I never heard of that. I just never heard of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
I know your eyes did it too.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
It picked up. You can't mess with Toto, baby. There was a pop. Give it 30 years, you'll get Pink Pony Club. Sure, okay.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Local Hour: The Job Is To Get The People "Jaiped"
No, no. A disappointment on your face, man.

Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
At one point in time in the United States, the dairy industry was struggling so heavily that they reached out to lobbyists who went to the government, who encouraged them to buy an excess of cheese to make sure the stock market didn't crash surrounding the dairy industry, resulting in what we now know as the cheese case, but also something else.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
While the government stores the cheese in the cheese caves, they also send out plenty of excess cheese to modern pizza chains in the United States. such as Papa John's and Domino's and Jets and pretty much every pizza chain you know of uses government cheese.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
Because they had such an excess of cheese and because they were looking for a way to get rid of it to justify the cost of buying so much, the government encouraged a lot of these chain pizza places to use more and more cheese in various products. The government is why we have stuffed crust pizza.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Pizzagate: We Investigate the (Real) Government Plot to Stuff You with Cheese
The government is why we have stuffed crust pizza.

The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Joining us now is the analyst from the Florida Panthers Hockey Network on the radio and from NHL Network, Bill Lindsey, who's been doing this for a good long while.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yes, sir. We are good, sir. How are you?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, you're looking good, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, well, speaking of trying to make it work, the Florida Panthers are making it work right now. Nice segue. Oh, thank you. I've been doing this for a while. They just beat the St. Louis Blues, and now they're going into Saturday to face the Ottawa Senators before the Four Nations tournament breaks. So let's go over the Four Nations and who's going to be in it for Florida.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
For Team USA, we've got Matthew Kachuk. Team Canada, both Sams. The Sams Club. The Sams Club with Reinhardt and Bennett. Team Finland. Four people. We've got four everybody. All the Finns. We've got Alexander Barkov, Anton Lindell, Ita Lusserainen, Nico Mikula, and for Team Sweden, Gustav Forsling. Now. My question is, you got all these guys going into this tournament, multiple games.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
How are they going to feel coming out of this tournament? My comp is obviously the World Cup of Hockey that happened in the mid-90s, and that was tough. That one was very physical. Nobody liked each other, even if they were on the same team. So I expect them to be a little bit tired coming out of the tournament. What say you, Bill?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
You can't bat the puck in with your glove either. It can bounce off your torso. It can bounce off your leg. Well, it's a little different. I think hand-eye coordination. You can't make that sweeping motion. No.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
at right now is them going into this game and the fact that their teammates during the regular season it's all going to be put aside right so do you agree like is there going to be chirping is Matthew Kachuk going to be chirping Alexander Barkov when USA plays Finland uh it depends how the games go you play with guys and you win a Stanley Cup like that the chirping is going to be minimal I don't know how much you actually get
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That's the other thing. Fun. I mean, you can deflect it off the skate. Yeah, that's legal. So why can't you just kick it in?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Now, you mentioned Sidney Crosby. I'm setting my very unhealthy dislike of Sidney Crosby aside. Tell me why I'm wrong for believing that Team Canada won't even make the championship game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
You know the reason why they do that, though, Ethan? No, I don't. Goaltenders. Goaltenders. That's why. Goaltenders, if they're the last to touch the puck, and all of a sudden there's an own goal that happens, the goaltender is credited with the goal. You know, the opposing goaltender.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
And you talk about all those breakaways. That was before they got rid of the two-line pass. Right. So that's more amazing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yep.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
No, no, no. We're talking about goaltenders scoring goals, actually. Not own goals, but actual goals credited to them. Because if they made the save, and all of a sudden there's an own goal on every net.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
I apologize for that. Let's look at the division leaders before we let you go, Billy. The Panthers are leading the Atlantic. They got a three-point lead over Toronto right now. One of the biggest surprises of the year are the Washington Capitals. So that's the East right there. The Capitals are leading the Metro. The Edmonton Oilers have had the best record in the NHL since November 7th, 28-9-3.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
And the Winnipeg Jets, who have been great all season, have won seven in a row and 11 in the last 14. Are we looking at both conference matchups there for the semifinals?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, well, I'm looking at Washington and Florida and Edmonton and Winnipeg. Are we looking at the conference?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Correct.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Billy, we appreciate you joining us from the Florida Panthers Radio Network and NHL Network. That's Bill Lindsay, everybody. Thank you, Billy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
No, clearly.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
All right, Ryan Hartman got suspended for 10 games for this. Now, this type of stuff should not be in the game. And what he did looked like something out of the WWE. It looked like something out of AEW, TNA as well. I mean, Ryan Hartman basically, Did his best Jake the Snake Roberts impression and gave a DDT to Tim Stusler.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
He's lucky he didn't get hurt worse because that came down right in his neck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Thank you. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That's what cut him open. Yeah. That's what cut him open.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah. So he had a cut over his eye because of that. He could have had a concussion. He could have had a broken neck. And he got a 10-game suspension not because of that. It was multiplied because he's a repeat offender. He's been suspended seven times prior to this. Really? Seven. That many times? Yes. It's been a few one-game suspensions, a couple of threes, and a five. Now he's got a ten.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
This is it. This is the last one. Dude's got a lot of points on his license. Yep. He should have his license taken away from him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That's crazy. That's reckless play. Now, he gave the reason why I was trying to keep my balance. So I used my arm to be on top. It's still slid. What is this?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That's why you need a sled.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
rips the heart out of Jim Montgomery, who took over for the Blues early in the season after, again, the Panthers ripped the heart out of Jim Montgomery early in the season prior to his firing in Boston. He does not like playing Florida. No, he does not. Tomorrow, on Saturday, they play the Ottawa Senators. One more time, Brady versus Matthew. They will not fight, but they will fight.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That play was off a face-off, by the way. That's why he complained about it. I was trying to keep my balance there. Or just fall on your ass and maybe paralyze the guy. Right. I don't know. So he's appealing the suspension. If Bettman says no, because this is... Six games or more, he's going to have to go to an independent arbitrator. And then who knows what's going to happen from there.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
the other members of the opposing team, before Brady and Matthew end up joining each other for the Four Nations on Team USA. So that should be a lot of fun. And things have gotten a lot interesting in the standings right now. The Panthers are 8-4-0 in the last... 12, they lead the division, as we said earlier, by three points over the Maple Leafs. One point. One point?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, Toronto won last night. Toronto won last night. They beat Seattle. Son of a mutter. But the Senators. Mutter was a mutter. Mutter, mutter, mutter. The Senators have scratched and clawed their way into a playoff spot. They are now in a wild card spot after losing to Tampa last night.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, I mean, Ottawa had third place in the division and lost it because of that loss last night to Tampa. And Ottawa's 10-4-1 in the last 15, but they lost two in a row, back-to-back losses. And that's the situation that those two are going to have tomorrow before we go on break.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah. Yeah, that's going to gain some national attention. They are going to kill each other, except Matthew and Brady, who are going to be standing off to the side.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
No? No. Grandma says no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That's how that works. Sorry. All right. That's Dave. That's Ethan. My name is Roy. Thank you for joining us. We'll see you next week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
But he deserves his suspension. Yeah, that's not cool. And I'm telling you right now, following this, if he does anything as heinous as that... I mean, he might as well go the Tony D'Angelo route and go to Russia.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
I mean, why don't we just go back to having ties? I mean, no, no. You got first, second, third, fourth, and fifth place votes. So that's going to be exceedingly difficult for a tie to happen.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, it's got to be a tiebreaker.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Well, keep in mind, Barkov was actually injured earlier in the season. That's going against him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Under zero circumstance were those two canceling each other out. That's ball calls.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
He's got the cliches down already as a prospect. He's so hyper-focused and ready to go. It's like they teach a class
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
It's the hockey show. That's Dave. That's Ethan. Rosie is not here. She's at the Super Bowl. That's it. All right. So let's go to slap shots really quickly. Let's go. All right. Hot takes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yes, I know that. But still, you want us to pay it?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Jake Navers was like, I'm sorry, Mr. Bennett. I was not attuned to your game. That sort of thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, my win of the week goes to the Ice Crew at the United Center Wednesday night prior to the Oilers game against the Blackhawks. Saw a bat flying around.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Yeah, yeah. The coyote. Osborne out there. Yeah. Eventually, again, like they do with Spurs games, like we just mentioned, they caught the bat. They netted the bat down with a huge net down to the ice and safely got that flying mammal up out of there. So good job by the Blackhawks ice crew. Multi-purpose. I like that. Yeah, very good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
This is the second time. This is like the second straight week.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Well, a couple of things. A couple of games prior to that, they had their goaltender ran. They didn't do a thing. And they went into the press conference saying, hey, well, we do this, we take a penalty in that situation. We needed the win. And then Lenny Ruff said, pick anybody else. Go and fight. Like, they did that. That happened. That's twice in a row. And the second thing is,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
You've got to go pretty high, and I mean pretty high, to knock down Tate Thompson with a head shot. The man's 6'8". That's ridiculous.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That's a deserved fail of the week, though, right, guys? Yes, that is deserved. My fail of the week, the bounces did not go the Kings way early in their game, but I mean, ridiculous. Mike Matheson, this was against the Canadiens, took a shot from the point, which deflected off the ass of Drew Dowdy, which then deflected off the mask of Darcy Kemper to tie the game at 1-1.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
The Kings ended up winning this one 6-3, but you can't take that to a... What are you going to call this? An own goal? The butt puck.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
The butthead goal. That should count against Drew Doughty. The butthead goal.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
That would be a defenseman. That would be an E2 in that situation. If you go from goaltender to defenseman to forward, that would be E2, E3. Yeah. Yeah, there you go. Ethan, you are wearing a Northeastern University jersey. Yeah. Why?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Now, we did this, what, I don't know, five episodes in? Yeah, a while ago. Yeah, we got a John Van Biesbroeck statue. Oh, no, the mask. The John Van Biesbroeck mask. It's right over there. It's over there in the production studio. Like, I try. I try to get free stuff all the time, you know, and I deserve it. I worked hard over 20 years. I like free stuff.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
I want free stuff right now, so please... Ethan's got the Biesbroeck mask. Yeah, so please, if you have free stuff... Myself, David, Ethan, and Rosie, if she was here to talk to herself. We did get the awesome stickers. Oh, we got the awesome stickers.

And again, as long as it's not Sidney Crosby related. I ask that you please benefit us. Bless us.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
Because it's an own goal. No, no.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Four Nations Preview (feat. Billy Lindsay)
All eight of them. I'll take the Panthers. All eight Panthers. I'm cheering for everyone who's Panthers.

We have Bill Lindsey coming up. If you want to watch that, you can watch that on YouTube if you're watching on DKN. So Billy Lindsey is going to join us in a second.

The Big Suey: Should Kendrick Play 'Not Like Us'?
Morton Downey Jr. to capitalize on the moment. They had TV shows.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Should Kendrick Play 'Not Like Us'?
Yeah, it has a clear phone, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Should Kendrick Play 'Not Like Us'?
Can you imagine the gigantic L that Drake's going to take when thousands of people in that stadium and everybody at home just say it's A minor? Does anyone know what are we talking about?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
And during the postgame scrum, Patrick Raw had some ire towards Anthony Duclair. Here's the sound.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Robert Powell joins us from ESPN. And I just got to tell you, if you've listened to me, if you've watched me for the past 19 years, you've known my dislike for Sidney Crosby. It's a great place to start. Welcome to the show. I hate Sidney Crosby. I hate Sidney Crosby. I don't like the Penguins, and I don't like Sidney Crosby. And people look at me like I'm a fool because it's Sidney Crosby.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Duke, Claire played only a little over 12 minutes. He was god-awful. He was god-awful. He had a bad game. That's why I didn't play him a lot. And he's lucky to be in the lineup. Sorry if I lose it on him right now, but that's all I feel. Just what are you seeing that he's not doing? He's not skating, he's not competing, he's not moving his feet. He's not playing up to what we expect from him.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
He's quote-unquote, quote-unquote. Finger guns, finger waving over here. One of the greatest players of all time. Just my ass. How about that? All right, so there have been entirely too much celebration for obscure, meaningless, pointless career stats all season for this guy. And I'm just going to give you examples of what happened here. Thank you, Ethan, for these.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Sidney Crosby's assist last night, this was last night's game, extended his point streak to 11 games, marking the longest point streak by a player age 37 or older Since Nicholas Lidstrom in Detroit in 2010-2011. What are we doing now? What's the point of that stat? On March 18th, Sidney Crosby surpassed Wayne Gretzky for the fourth most points for a single franchise in NHL history for 16-70.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
That was back on March 18th. Fourth most we're celebrating. Yeah, fourth most. On March 11th. Sidney Crosby registered his 105th multi-goal game, which is ranked second among active players behind Alexander Ovechkin. Artur, what the f*** are we doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
What are we doing?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
I like that stat. That is a good stat. That is a good stat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
I would hate that set if it was Sidney Crosby.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Compiler. Compiler.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
All right. He's Omar Vizquel.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
He hasn't committed a single error in 15 years, this Sidney Crosby. I'm like, I'm tired of it. All right, we're wasting artist time. Can I ask him some real questions?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Just about, yeah. Come on. Yeah, yes. I mean, come on. We got Gordie Howe.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Maurice Rashard. Ned Gretzky. Like, what are we doing here?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Wayne Gretzky's brother.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
E2 Lusteranian. Yager, Yager, and everybody, yeah. Yes, everybody excelled. Yeah, all right, let's move on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Thank God.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
The loss to the Canadiens did that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Do you feel like that's an effort thing? I think it's an effort thing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
That's not easy in the moment. The PR staff for the Islanders actually cut the video portion of that short because that didn't sound too good. So, yeah, I got to say Patrick Raw is probably right about Duclair. Seven goals and four assists for 11 points in 44 games. That's not going to get it done. But he did get injured earlier in the season with a
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
The Panthers murdered him. The Panthers ended that era.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yes, they did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah. That's when the casket went down and they started putting dirt in the grave. That was game over for the Bruins in this era. So let's play the, uh, The video of the fight between Conor McMichael and Jalen Chatfield. This is an MMA move, basically. This looked like something out of WWE, actually, because look at this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
He's going to spin him around, and he looked like he ended up rock bottom, giving him a rock bottom on that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, I mean, we've seen plenty of takedowns in these fights, but we haven't seen a takedown like that, and that would look pretty dangerous. That's the type of takedown that you end up hitting your head on the ice. But he's not going to get any supplemental discipline. Did he deserve any type of fine or suspension for that move?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
The director of the Department of Player Safety is noted pugilist George Peros. So how much of this is on him? Because it seems like a lot of these suspensions and fines are substantially subjective.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Well, they played Gloria, so yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, and that's the physical side of it, by the way. The emotional side is, even before the season started, Lou Lamorello, who was the GM of the Islanders, is still going by this archaic rule of keeping your hair short and having facial hair. There's a lot more to the rules on this team that's just ridiculous. The Yankees aren't even using that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Finally, two teams, as you said earlier, have not been hot at the right time. That's the Devils and the Islanders, especially the Islanders because of whatever. So Sheldon Keefe and Patrick Waugh have both thrown their players under the bus.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
In this latest instance, Patrick Waugh ended up doing that to Anthony Duclair, and Anthony Duclair is now done for the season as he takes some time off to reflect. So what is your opinion on coaches nowadays throwing their players under the bus and embarrassing them in the media?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Thank you. Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Thank you.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
I'm tired of this, man. This is the second back-to-back left. The two back-to-backs left in this season. So, got to get through it. So, they beat Tampa, right? They beat Tampa. Yeah, they beat Tampa.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, so there's that. They got a good amount lead for the first raw card spot, so I don't think they have to worry about losing that one.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, and now the series is split against Florida for the season. The Senators won 3-1 in October, and the Panthers won 5-1 in February. That would have been a fun playoff series.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, he built that outdoor rink north down here.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
And then Sunday they go to Detroit, who is still in the race. They're still in the race for the second wild card. So they got something to play for. They'll be coming off their game versus Carolina. They play tonight. And the Red Wings won 5-2 against Florida back in January. That was their only meeting. So they got a couple of games left against Florida.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
The Red Wings have gone 4-5-1 since losing six in a row. So there's that. I wouldn't say a bit of a bounce back. I mean, they lost six in a row. So, again, four wins out of the last ten. That's not how you make the playoffs. That's not how you make the playoffs. So, that's what the Panthers are looking at this upcoming weekend. Not a good week for them.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Hoping to bounce back before they head home after Sunday. So, for David Dwork, for Ethan Podolsky, for Jason, and whoever it is back there as well. Arda. oh yeah for auto cow for gino and i don't know who that was i think that was dang gq uh thank you for listening thank you for watching we'll see you next week bye
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, and back to the whole coaching situation. That was not good. Now we're throwing players under the bus now. This is what Sheldon Keefe did last week, and this is not good. This is not how you get your players to respond. No, definitely not.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
You do that shit in private. You don't go out into the media and just embarrass a player like this. And this is not 100% undeclared at all because this is a mediocre team, this New York Islanders club. Like the goaltending is in the middle of the league. They have the worst power play in the league. They have great penalty killing.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
No, they have good penalty killings. Are they good on PK? Yeah, they're good on PK.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, and the defense is bad. The defense is bad at even strength. But they're disciplined. They don't take too many penalties. That's why the penalty killings... It's because of the lack of facial hair. They're able to stay out of the box. Yeah, the referees are looking at that. Clean players mean good discipline, apparently.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Welcome to the Hockey Show. My name is Roy Bellamy. David Jork from the Hockey News is right there. Ethan Badowski is in the shipping container. And Rosie is still out doing March Madness stuff. Ethan's over there doing the Gator Chomp with the Penn State.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
But I really do hate when coaches do that to players because it's just... It's not a good look. No. And when does it work? Does that work anymore these days? It doesn't work. And then when the player goes, if the player does the same thing to the coach, ice time gets reduced. Like, straight up. Like, it's a one-way street on that one. I don't like that. And now the player has requested time off.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, it's not a good situation.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Seven points out of a playoff spot? I don't know if him or Lou. Dude, Claire's only 29. That's crazy to me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
But he's been hampered by injuries, and that's pretty much reduced his playing career.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
No, he automatically changes your transition offense when he's on your club, when he's fully healthy. And he's just going to have to heal. And that's what we're looking at on the island. And just ridiculous.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
And I remember the last day I saw Vincent Trocek in a Panthers uniform. We were in the locker room and I saw him and he was amazing. about as depressed as I've ever seen an actual athlete live. It looked like he was told that he was being traded. And that's eventually what happened. He was traded. So, yeah, that's one of those situations where you got to go like, man, I'm sorry, dude.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
He's doing okay now. I think he's pretty happy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Watch Major League. Don't watch Major League. Two, don't watch Major League. Back in the minors. Just watch Major League.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
No, it wasn't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
All right. I can't believe you just said that.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
He did okay in Boston, too. We will talk about the Bruins later. This is my win of the week. The Wild went to Madison Square Garden to play the Rangers on Wednesday, and during pregame skate, Matt Zucamrello, who was a Ranger, wore a nice little jersey that had the number 40 and the last name of Rosen on the back.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
And that was a nod to Sam Rosen, the Rangers play-by-play analyst for MSG, who is retiring at the end of the season. Matt Zuccarello, as I said, was a former Ranger. So that is a nice gesture for Sam Rosen, who is going to... If he's not already, I'm sure he's probably going to end up being in the Pro Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Yeah, Keith Overman always makes fun of him for some reason, but he's a Rangers fan himself, so yeah, I guess that's all in fun. Ethan?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
It's an excellent explanation. Yeah, thank you. I appreciate you. I appreciate you. All right, so let's start off with the New York Islanders so I can continue. Your favorite topic. Yeah, I need to continue the streak of bashing them for signing racists. All right, so the New York Islanders have lost to the Lightning and effectively was knocked out of playoff contention basically on Wednesday.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Chelsea daggers?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
No, that was not Chicago. That was the one minor league-ass goal horn, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Oh, dude.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
You guys switch-flipped.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
Trevor Zegers flip over the net. Yes, yes.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
My winner of the week, we go back to Tuesday for Capitals and Bruins. This is for Alexander Ovechkin's 890th goal of his career, and I can tell you this is not how you defend anybody. Not a rookie forward, not Alexander Ovechkin, and nobody in the middle. He was left wide open with nobody around him five feet away from the net.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
I mean, if you look at the still image, which is going to come up soon, there was zero reason. zero reason why alexander ovechkin should have been that wide open next to your net look at this look at that that's a high percentage look what's the what's the xg on this voice 0.98 0.99 nah man yeah that's uh 99 that's a 1.0 right there uh ethan you'll fail
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Even though Perot has had a great year. That pass was deflected.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Hockey Show: Roy Campaigns for Sidney Crosby (feat. Arda Öcal)
So we got Artur Ocal from ESPN to come on to talk about what's happened this week. If you are watching on DKN, you can watch that on YouTube and you can listen to it on the podcast. That is coming up next.

Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
You know, in the city of Birmingham, you know, it was love and appreciation and reverence for all of the Negro League. It's not just Willie Mays. You know, I think what Reggie Jackson said was relevant. It was poignant, but it was also important to understand that's what we're trying to remember. But ultimately, also in a way grow away from.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
And I think that the fact that you could have a game of that significance in a place where things that heinous took place on a regular basis, I think is a testament to a lot of the growth that is happening in the state of Alabama. I just love the fact that the Brickwood game happened because normally when you're talking about my hometown of Birmingham is dogs and fire hoses.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
So to be able to talk and at least be able to give those brothers a moment in the sun to tell them, thank you, You know, it's not going to fix everything that happened to them. But I think it's a very, very important part of growing past all of it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
You know, the one thing that was dope, I was in the stadium when they announced when Willie Mays had passed on Tuesday night and you saw strangers crying and hugging white, black, whatever. And I think that's exactly the spirit of what Willie Mays was and using the sport of baseball to bring people together.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
But because you get to sit down with living griots, the whole podcast, we're talking to retired Negro leaguers, former architects of the stadium, people who lived and played during that time, white and black.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
And they're just telling stories of how this stadium became the one place where you could figure out whether, like the fact that you already said it at the top, the first integrated sports game happened there. Part of the reason for that is that The Black, the Birmingham Black Barons outsold the White Barons in tickets during the days of integrated baseball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
White people would come to watch Black people play. So it became a place where integration was, there was a level of racial tolerance between both parties. So Rickwood became the perfect test kitchen, if you will, for desegregation in the South. In the same way it was the first integrated sports game, that same game was also the first integrated crowd.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
So if it can happen there, then the idea of desegregation can kind of tentacle off from Rickwood. And that's partly what happened. The one thing they messed up and I found this out in the podcast, they the Charlie Finley, the owner of the Barons at the Barons at the time, they did a giveaway at the first integrated game for the crowd. And it was razor blades. Now,
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
I don't know if weaponry should be the thing you give to black people and white people when they sit side by side for the first time. But old Gillette made a push for the sponsorship. So it's a lot of interesting facts just about how baseball intersects with our society and just silly fun stuff like that. You know, we talked to retired Negro leaguers, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
They told me stories of how they would send light-skinned players into white restaurants so that they could get food and then just pray that the player doesn't take his hat off and that afro come jumping out from underneath the hat.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
But I think the thing that I left last week with was how much the retired Negro Leaguers, most of them that I talked to, I'd say 95%, they look back at their time playing in the Negro Leagues with a level of reverence and happiness because they were around friends and it was hard, but it was the one part of their life that wasn't completely crazy and they still have an appreciation for those days.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
Never again. Never again. What? I will never. I've done it. I don't need to play in no celebrity, nothing, no more, never again. I will be the hype man on the side like that dude in those and one mixtape. Like I will attend a celebrity game and just be there in the dugout. But the idea of being on the field, here's the problem with every celebrity athletic event.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
You have people who want to win and then you have people just here to have fun. I'm just here to have fun. I'm not trying to win. I don't care about winning. And they get these athletes who are just like 10 years or less since their retirement. So they're still strong. They're still able-bodied. Steven Jackson.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
and this is the play that we talked to stephen jackson before we even get to me and him almost colliding in left field stephen jackson matt barnes who was the mvp of the softball game stephen jackson and matt barnes took this game so seriously and i have nothing but the highest of respect for them i knew from the locker room i wasn't going to do nothing stephen jackson was stretching his jordans matched his outfit them ain't even the jordans they gave us they gave us free sneakers that matched the uniform and stephen jackson was like nah i got this
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
We start losing. We start losing. We're getting our ass whooped the whole game, our team. And there is an intensity with professional athletes, even if they're not suiting up anymore, that I just, unless you've done it, I just don't think you can plug into it. I couldn't plug into it. There's a play where there's a fly ball to left field. It's my ball. It is clearly my ball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
I'm coming in and I'm looking up and I can hear Steven Jackson and I can hear him just, yeah. And I don't know if that's how he calls for fly balls. But in my brain, I could my brain is telling me he's not going to stop. He's Steven Jackson. He's locked in. Maybe you should get out of the way. And I get out of the way at the last second.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
Steven Jackson catches this fly ball, turns around and runs back towards the infield and mumbles. And I quote. I got this. This is what I do.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
I don't have that gear. Neither do I. Whatever that gear is for you to talk to yourself. No. So never again, man. Respect to Steven Jackson, man, but I can't play softball like that. That man was talking trash like he was going back up the court in transition on a baseball field.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
He came out like Jeter and just catches it and goes, I got this. This is what I do. Clearly, this is what you do, sir. You can have the ball. I'm not trying to collide with nobody at no celebrity softball game to tribute the Negro Leagues. I'm good. Roy, did you feel confident?

Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
Yeah, I thought so. But if I hadn't have caught the ball, now I'm face to face with Steven Jackson. So it's probably better to just get out of this man's way. These celebrity games, man, it's just people trying to prove they still got it, or it's a rapper trying to take over.

y'all got it man y'all got it and and shout out to lebron's company spring hill who helped organize it in cc sabathia with the players alliance they sent a questionnaire and they asked you what position do you like to play what's you know what's your skill level of what's your ability at this sports because they can decide how to roster you the only question they should ask is whether or not you got this do you got this or not

Were you at the – How serious will you take this game? Because I would have said three, and then you'd have put me over there maybe with Robin Thede or Kel Mitchell from Kenan & Kel. Kel was playing at a three.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
Yeah, a three or a two. Steven Jackson and Matt Barnes were both on 12. And it's just Jameis Winston was locked in. Des Bryant was locked in. Terrell Owens was locked in. There's just a there is a there is a level that every athlete accesses, whether it is for pay or for exhibition that I do not possess. And I just don't know if I belong out there.

No, I missed Rhino by a day. I was there the day before where they paid tribute to the 84 team that won the NL East. So Sutcliffe was there. Sandberg was there. A whole gang of the guys from 84. And, you know, that was a great time. I mean, dude, I had a I had a hell of a week, man. I met Reggie Jackson.

Postgame Show: Roy Wood Jr.
I had an opportunity to sit down with a 98 year old Negro leaguer and I got Ryan Sandberg's autograph. That was in terms of baseball weeks. Probably better than me seeing the Cubs win it all in Cleveland.

All them computers. Look at all them computers in there.

Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
It's more joy than it is relief. Relief that we came after that huge penalty kill where Kevin Sandlin lost his stick or gave his stick to Gustav Forslund. When they killed that off, that's pretty much when I knew they were going to end up winning this.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
I think it's Chuck Brandon, my son, Sam Bennett, who's our boss and brought the cup back out. And some more beer.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
Well, as you saw, they just dumped beer back down to the ground out of Santa Cup. We got some Panther employees drinking out of the cup right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
No, unfortunately, I'm not allowed inside. No. And I'm not going to get beard poured. Why not?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 2: Mark Messier Hates Greg Cote
Because I'm wearing my jersey, and it's already hot, and I'm sticky. So, yeah, no, that's not going to happen.

The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
It says it on the board. The cup's over there somewhere. It says it all around the ribbon board. The final score, 2-1. The Florida Panthers won it in a style that they have mastered all season. You said it. You said it. What was it? What did they do? Shut down City in the third period. They completely shut this team down in the third period. A rat was just thrown at me.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
We're here with Kevin Sillin, and you guys have played your asses off all playoffs. You made it to seven games here in the Stanley Cup Finals. Give us your feelings right now.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
We're here with Panthers captain Alexander Barkov. You just raised the Stanley Cup. Can you believe that? I guess we're champions, right? I guess so.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
This is amazing, man. I'm proud of you. As a Panthers fan, I'm proud of you. As a member of the medium, I'm so happy to see that you actually got to do this. So congratulations to you, Alexander. We're here with Jeremy Taché of Valley Sports Florida. They just want to Stanley Cup, Jeremy.

The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
You got the good seat up there in the press box, wherever it is. You took my seat, goddammit.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Thank you. We got Stephen Lawrence and Anthony Stolas, everybody. You boys just won the Stanley Cup. How do you feel?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Fucking A. Boys, congratulations. We're here with Stanley C. Panther of the Florida Panthers. This is a championship mascot. How do you feel right now, Stanley? Yes. We're at Roboto Morongo, and you have finally got yourself a Stanley Cup ring coming your way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
We don't even call him by his first name. We call him Bob.

The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
I think the added motivation tonight was from you drumming.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Since you've taken over the franchise, you made this a first-class organization and you got yourself a new practice facility and everything. Now you're a Stanley Cup champion. How do you feel?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
He was there, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Well... We've interviewed as many people as we could. And it is. Soaked it up. Yeah, we soaked it up. It's a joyous occasion here at ice level, here at Amherst Bank Arena, as the Florida Panthers have won the Stanley Cup, David.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
And so was Stephen A. Smith, by the way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
We're going to get the fans' reaction at the infield.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Yeah, we got to go to the bar, and we're going to have to have drinks. But before we leave the ice tonight, we do have a very special message for a certain individual who renounced his fanship of the Florida Panthers. That is Chris Runningham, who decided to become a New York Rangers fan, who promptly got vanquished during the Eastern Conference Final. Yeah. So...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
In closing, as we leave the ice here at Amarillo Bank Arena, to you, Chris Renahan, you can go f*** yourself.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
The Big Suey: Big Friggin' Dave Bobrovsky
Yeah, I could probably Zoom from here. Can I? Yeah.

They are not going to call a single goddamn penalty in that game. They were letting that game play out.

Of course you were.

That play in the corner, by the way, that's exactly how the Eastern Conference final ended. That's what they worked on in training camp. So cool. They ended the entire season on a play in the corner that they worked on in training camp.
