Normally, almost always, I'm either happy or thrilled to see Sarah Spang. However, in her role as Bucket of Death Commissioner Emeritus, I'm scared of her. I'm rarely happy to see her because she rules this thing much more firmly than Billy ever did who was only interested in anarchy and she is back now. I think Emeritus suggests that it has a past

but not necessarily a future, I thought. I thought Emeritus but I've been confused by the Latin. I thought the same, yeah. Thown off by a lot of Latin too, Emeritus. But I thought it was a past thing but Sarah's back as our commissioner because no, you don't get to, you don't know. I mean, I understand, it's a fitting title.

Dan likes the role play situation in the costume, so we'll give her a fictional title, but okay, we'll play along for today, but I mean, I rule with an iron fist. No, you don't, you're a weak ruler, and that's why we have to go back to the strong commissioner. How dare you, sir? How dare you, sir?

And if I were you, I wouldn't choose sides because you have a long day coming if I know anything about what's about to happen here. Ruh-roh. I have my case, I'm pleading my case today in front of a just and benevolent commissioner. Sarah, how have you been? I miss you so much.

Oh yeah, nice try. By the way, I think the Latin word is imperpetuitous is actually what it is. The commissioner imperpetuitous, is actually what it is. The commissioner imperpetuitous. Infinitum is actually the word. That's what Samson said. Brilliant. Either way, she's in charge again,

and let's bring our first controversy in front of her. I don't know what happened here. Jess was collecting fines for a long time. Jess, you made a good amount of money because all of the fines were going to you in cash, but evidently Amin made a decision the other day to immediately choose, what do you put in? I didn't make a decision, this is what happened.

Jess was getting the fine money because she pulled the fine bucket helmet, correct? I was keeping some of it. I felt wrong taking all of it, even though it was mine to take. So there was a decent amount in the fine bucket for the whole off season. Okay, so I then pulled the fine bucket and I expected that these rules would get passed

along to the next person who has that helmet. And so I got the $10 that were in the bucket and I said, well, the other other fines are gonna continue to come into me Until someone else fills the fine, but no That's not how it works So here's what happened Jess was the one who was originally wronged by the fine bucket money being stolen and then not being able to Accept any funds that were duly owed to her But now that term has ended Jess is no longer in possession of the

fine bucket, so the rule that was made without my ruling whatsoever, and frankly without even consulting me, was that Jess would get all the money in perpetuity based on being wronged. She is no longer being wronged. The fine bucket has been restored. Whoever thieved that is no longer a part of the picture. So going forward, if you get the fine bucket, you only get what's in there right then. You do not get future earnings. Fair and just. Fair and just. Thank you, Sarah. Hold on. Great catching up with you. We'll see you soon. Bye. No, no. Hold on. First of all, I'd like to say, oh, wise and gracious commissioner, your wisdom, absolutely, it shines upon me. So passed only by my beauty.

Yes. But I will point out that I was wronged in some sort because there was no real money in the fine bucket because it was just going to Jessica. The only reason there was $10 in there was because Jessica has been gone for a couple weeks. So here's how you were actually wronged. The failure to establish any rule whatsoever, which clearly falls on Billy Gill's weak shoulders,

required that now there's a conversation, which shouldn't have had to be had. We should have already known what was gonna happen the next time the fine was pulled. So what needs to happen now is the money that Jess felt guilty taking, because it felt like too much, goes to Amin. Whatever amount you did not take because you felt...

Where is it? She spent it all. She felt guilty, but then she didn't stop. Then she took it? Yeah. Oh, you mean the extra money? OK, no, that's still, OK. There's only $10 in there.

That's what you felt guilty about? You left $10? There's way more than $10 in there. Did someone steal? There was only $10 in there. Look. Who God seems to know. Madam Commissioner Emeritus. Imper, in perpetuitous.

Infinitum, don't forget infinitum. Infinitum. So this is what actually happened because you've just been being served up a bucket of lies. And to be honest with you, it's disgraceful, it's shameful, and it's not befitting of someone in your position. This is what happened. Amin was hosting the show that day and he picked last.

Mike Ryan picked slightly before him, just before him in fact, and it was his second draw so he was stuck with the instant death and the fine bucket. When he drew that, we said, well wait a minute, Jess has been getting all that fine money. Someone checked the fine bucket. It was known immediately that there was only $10 in there and Mike was upset that he had the $10 and the instant death

and then he started getting upset that no one was paying off punishments and he had this whole charade, right? So then Amin picked after that and Amin picked the swap and Amin then had a winning helmet that he could have picked so he had an instant win had he not chosen to swap. He would have been off scot-free. And Amin then said to Mike, well hold on a minute,

I can swap and just get $10. And said verbally, if I swap, I get $10. I'll take $10 for a loss any day of the week because I'm not even gonna have to pay it off. No one's paying off their punishments. Which was an insult, an insult to the game, and an insult to you, madam, an insult to you, and I took personal umbrage on your behalf

when I heard that, and I, honestly, honestly, my weekend was off as a result. I couldn't even enjoy football properly because I was so hurt that someone would disrespect you in such a manner I couldn't believe my ears I couldn't believe it. Is that why you brought a police officer with you today to enforce some sort of rule? Should I be worried about where Tony's badge sits in the totem pole of power here? Is that above or below a commissioner? It's below everything is below the commissioner what is the ruling i mean what did you

want to say before we get to the largest one is it also jayson and light and commissioner i yes i said the ten dollars but i thought because it was a you know i was going to get a stream of money is coming towards me all right now i have a swap helmet that i was in a jessica what do you have for sarah i just want to say that confusion was because i was guilty both about taking the money and leaving money in Swap helmet that's positive Jessica. What do you have for Sarah? I just want to state the confusion Was because I was guilty both about taking the money and leaving money in the fine bucket So I was guilty about the whole money situation

However, the last time I checked there was still a decent amount of money. There were a couple 20s in there So between that and last week, I don't know what happened to the remaining money. I didn't take all except 10 There was definitely more money in there. I think there's another thief. I think there needs to be a lock on the fine bucket. I mean, this is twice now that there has been someone from within your ranks, someone that you trust, someone that you consider a friend and a colleague, stealing money directly, in this case, from Jessica and now from Amin based on the elaborate scheme that he had

planned for future monies. Chris, Cody, please look up for me why it's scot-free. I don't know why it's scot-free. I don't know why anyone is scot-free. So please look that up for me. It's probably gonna be something we're not allowed to say anymore. Yeah, probably.

Involving people from Scotland. Scott Peterson. And Sarah is right. I am personally offended that there is a thief in our midst that makes all of this so. But Sarah, just officially, what is your ruling before I get to other rulings and before we get the Grim Reaper in. But Sarah, just officially, what is your ruling before I get to other rulings

and before we get the Grim Reaper in here? Okay, the official ruling is that was a clever attempt, Amin, unfortunately it was not successful, so you will have to pay your punishment and you get $10. But also, Jess made the grave error of twice accepting guilt and then trying to sound pious by not taking money and then later revealing that it wasn't that much money. So Jess does have to give two $20 bills

immediately to Amin. Wow. Whoa. You are onees. She doesn't have cash. Very just. But she's a sponsor, Venmo is a sponsor. Do you have two 20s you can spot me?

Very just. Thank you. That is a ruling, the ruling is in, thank you. $40 owed to Amin, you will Venmo him. We also, nobody can agree which day to do, which day of the week to pull from the bucket. Do you wanna make a ruling there? Is there any sort of consensus?

Is anyone, is there anyone making a good argument for any day? Well, like Thursday. Yeah, here's the thing, Madam Commissioner. Billions to God's are not here on Thursday. Yeah, they're not here on Thursday. I think the last two weeks, Madam Commissioner, this is what I said, and you as a veteran in experience alone in the industry, I will say, you as a veteran in the industry and

experience alone know how important it is and how great it is to build a communal audience with the audience, a family of sorts, And it's so important for them to know when it is they're going to get the grid of death and the bucket of death. So I stress the importance of let's pick a day so everybody knows and it becomes an appointment listening experience for all. Let's do a day that we know this is the day,

this is the time that we're gonna do it. So they look forward to it. This whole mishmash of sometimes it's a Monday, sometimes it's a Friday. It's such a disservice to the great audience and it's a disservice to you and honestly the order that you tried to establish here in your time. So I feel like it's, oh okay, you can go.

Yeah, yeah, I mean I think that was a little long-winded. I think either it's Wednesday or Friday. Either Wednesday. Thursday sounds good too though. No, because Thursday's, Wednesday gots us out and we're not letting him off the hook. Well he's off Friday too. I think Wednesday's either the day before,

oh shh, then Wednesday, it's Wednesday. Wednesday is the day before the first game of the week starts which is Thursday, and everybody's in the office, right? Not everybody, but we're doing it only, only the people who are here that day are doing it. And it's a leap year this year. I just heard Stugots say he's trying to switch his off day from Thursday to Wednesday.

I'm seeing that Scott was an early Icelandic and old Norse word for payment or tax. Thus Scott free literally means exempt from tax. So not Scott Peters. Thank you, so not Scott Peters. And not people from Scotland. Also Roy has three losses and hasn't paid off any of them. Mike Ryan has two, hasn't paid them them off what are you gonna do about being a

more stern about making sure that these payments get paid still got says another one wants to got has one from like four years ago he's got to do a freestyle rap on the stage of the cleveland i did it you were there i understand why he's refusing to do that because how could you ever compete with the commission's wrap i think you know i, I've set a precedent that can't be matched Mike I'm kind of not surprised that he's used his seniority to weasel out of them, but Roy I'm not mad. I'm disappointed Roy. I expected better from you I thought you were the kind of guy that would own up to the things that you've promised to do and I'm frankly

To change my entire opinion of you, Roy, and I think it's changed everyone's opinion of you, and I'd highly recommend paying off some of those things before the commission has to take stern action, if you know what I'm saying. Now, Madam Commissioner, I'd like to point out, Roy's not here typically on Wednesdays, and he's not respecting your game up until this point

by paying off his punishments. Enough, Billy, let's bring the reaper in. Thank you. Thank you. There's been plenty of Billy this segment. Presenting the facts, though. I mean, presenting the facts. Trying to clear things up for him.

Roy's never here. Keep things moving. Let's go here. Reaper, I need you to move a little quicker, please. Thank you. Jessica, you're the first to the bucket. First time this season, too. Whoa.

I've gone five times this year. Same. Waa, waa, waa, chargers. First time this season too. Whoa. I've gone five times this year. Same! Waa waa waa Chargers. Alright, so the Chargers are... Let me see here. I am looking and I don't see them anywhere. I think you might have a Bi-Waik. Oh, a Bi-Waik! The Byes!

Bye bye bye. We've already gotten to the Byes. Yeah, we're at the Byes already. We're early for the Byes. Chargers, Lions, Titans, and Eagles on a lot of rules. The Reapers a lot less scary than it used to be. This one feels good right here. The LA Rams.

The Rams are at home against the Packers. They're a three point dog. Putting it back. Yes. Rams just lost to the Bears. Mm-hmm. Packers are good. All right, here we go.

Last one here. How about the Bears, Sarah? I mean, progress. The Pittsburgh Steelers, they play the Cowboys. I actually like them. I'm gonna keep it. Well you have no choice. Two and a half point favorite the Steelers are against the Cowboys. Billy, go ahead and reach in the bucket. All right, I'm picking and I feel a lot of... How about those Jets? How about them? I feel a lot lighter knowing that I've already selected my punishment from last week's losses Just like to point that out madam commissioner the Vikings. Oh, that's a good one I'm gonna keep this in London keep that The Vikings are two and a half point favorite against the Jets only two and a half

All right now I'm going Service helmet This is a service helmet. Oh wow. Wait, don't put it away. Army and Navy are both good. They're both good. I'll keep one. I'll let you know which one I'm picking in a second. Wait, who does he have to service?

The Reaper. Okay. Yo. They're both 4-0, aren't they? I think Navy and Air Force play each other this week. Navy does play Air Force. Army and Navy are both undefeated. They're very good automatic win and loss Stugat is now going to the bucket

Love a good rummage. I've been rummaged in a while rummage. I'm gonna take my time rummaging. I got a helmet I got a helmet. I have a helmet. Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They are at the Falcons.

Well done, I'm putting this back. Here we go. Yeah. Madam, you don't trust Baker? Might I say your hat looks lovely today? Thank you. I appreciate it, Billy. I got the, Billy. Dab, Ducky!

I got the Falcon! Wow! I can't wait for them to lose that one. I want the Bucks back. Is this the Golden Helmet of Life? No. That's the Zebra Helmet. No, that can't be it. And that's what mean. I don't think that is.

What is it? It's a gold helmet that's all... It's not gold. That's not a Dan. Look at how they're dressed. And that's a mean, I don't think that is. No. What is it? It's a gold helmet that's all metal. That's gold, that's a gold copper. That's a way out of order. It's a helmet of death, I think. I think that's Notre Dame. They're on a bide. They're golden domers.

They're golden helmet of life. Why is it so beat up? The golden helmet of life. Rummaging. It's been through a lot. Saint Oroni's. It got rummaged. Well, hold on.

Did Dan want to keep the helmet? The Saints. Amin has the Saints. Are they on a buy? Monday Night Football against the Chiefs. They are a four and a half point underdog. Keep it. Absolutely not.

Oh, you coward. James Carville would yell at you for that. You're keeping yours? You're still getting clear? I am. You went out of order, just so. I mean, you're supposed to go last. Pointing that out. That's technically Amin's helmet. The Bungles. You went out of order just so I mean you're supposed to go last

Don LeBittard, it is not a documentary. It's not a documentary. It's a fictional show. It's a movie. It's a movie. Well, what helps is that every actor's head is substantially bigger for his body than it should be. So that gives us a lot of appropriate. It's not movie. It's a movie. Well, what helps is that every actor's head is substantially bigger for his body than it should be, so that gives us a lot of appropriate-

It's not nice seeing you. It is not nice seeing you again. How did Stu's face get bigger than Dan's? Don't miss the new Hulu original drama, La Machina, starring Diego Luna, Gael Garcia Bernal, and Eiza Gonzalez. La Machina is the first Spanish language original series from Hulu. In their long-awaited on-screen reunion, Gael and Diego play lifelong friends, one a boxer, and the other his crafty manager, making one last attempt at glory in the ring.

But to make it to Fight Night, they must confront a mysterious underworld organization, raising stakes to life or death. La Machina premieres October 9th, streaming on Hulu. Don Lebatard. Did someone say conservative entity? Whoa! No! What? Oh, see this is why.

Stugatz. Hers is better than mine. In the fifth Segeki. Yours was flooding. How is the fifth Segeki better than the third and the fourth Segeki already? This is the Don Lebatard Show with the StuGads. There are three basketball stories that I want to get to here with Amin and with the

rest of you. One of them is AJ Griffin at the age of 21, a former first-round pick who had a decent enough rookie season, leaving the sport entirely, retiring because he is joining the ministry. He says he is doing this for Jesus. I do not tend to mock those kinds of things. Many people are mocking that choice because he's leaving money behind and what a lot of people listening to this think of as a dream life, I think it is a noble pursuit when it is that you follow your convictions

and your beliefs even if they don't align with everybody else's. When you follow your dreams, not others' dreams. That is correct. But it is an unusual choice and I think one of the times that that happened that resulted in a similar Mockery was the the rapper mace right left at a pretty good time in hip-hop for him left to To follow his belief system. What are you smirking about? I mean because I could hear maces voice right now

That's right there leviton Mace's voice right now. That's right, Dan LeVittar. Turned out good for him too. I know, turned out great, especially considering all that- All the surroundings of Bad Boy. So, you know, he escaped a certain Sodom and Gomorrah, Mace did when he left.

I wonder how much of the NBA lifestyle clashes with A.J. Griffin's new found devotion to Christ. Like I wonder, because there's an argument, he could keep playing in the NBA and do that. That Jonathan Isaac is a great example of someone who is super duper ultra religious and also plays basketball because it gives you a platform,

it gives you access, and a good job. But the ministry is hard though. If you're joining a ministry, he's not just devoting himself to religion spiritually and emotionally, he's doing it occupationally. Like he's changing jobs. Yeah, and there's a part of this, I mean, look, there is a luxury he has afforded because if you didn't know,

A.J. Griffin stands for Adrian Griffin Jr. He is the son of Adrian Griffin, the former Bucs head coach, but also long time NBA player who made a decent amount of money in his day. So the pressures for an A.J. Griffin to continue to play because of the revenue generation that playing in being an NBA player brings with it is a lot less than it would be for someone else. Another story I wanted to get to

from a young player in the league Scoot Henderson Stugats I don't know if you heard this sound but he was asked what it is that he has learned early in his career he's like 20 years old right yeah so last year was his, but he was asked what it is that he has learned early in his career. He's like 20 years old, right? Yeah. So last year was his rookie year. He was a 19 year old when he played. I think he's 20 now. And so on media day he was asked, all right, now that we're a few months removed from your

first year in the NBA, what did you learn? From it, kind of what do you look back on about your rookie season and kind of what you learned from it? I look back at the food, the good food that I had. Yeah, a lot of food. And you know what I've learned from it. Never related more to a sound. Yeah. Food.

That's a hilarious answer. That is an all-time media day answer. That's going to live on for years and years. But also terrifying if you're a Portland Trailblazers fan. This is the franchise, not only the franchise, but the point guard, the brains of the operation, the guy who's supposed to be dissecting the game game seeing it levels upon levels before everyone else on the court Is he already trying to start a spat with management though? It's like what did you learn last year? I didn't learn anything because we've been terrible and I'm not that you know he's trying to get out of Portland already

Ready how do you like that? It's a chess move How good is the food in Portland also what a tremendous sneeze from Jessica. I think that's around the United States. I don't think he, it might be also Portland, but I think he's, I don't think it was subject to just Portland. I think it's everywhere. Yeah. I don't think it was just Granola. I think he was eating other things as well.

In all fairness, if you weren't NBA player, you get to travel a lot. You get to go to a lot of nice restaurants. A lot of times you don't have to pay because people are giving you food for free, they're just happy that you're there. And the veterans pay? Veterans pay, sometimes you're out with your coach, Chauncey Billups, he's made a couple of dollars in his career, maybe he picks up the tab, and you're like, if you're 18, 19 years old and you've been eating Subway and stuff like that, now all of a sudden you're

eating good? Does Portland have a rich veteran? That's a good point. Is Aitin still there? Yeah, right blame you. Does Portland have a rich veteran? That's a good point. Is Aitin still there? Yeah, right? No. He's still there?

Jeremy Grant. Jeremy Grant's the one? I got this, guys. You see how much money he makes. They're trying to trade Aitin and nobody wants Aitin. This is a great answer. I mean, I just talked about how much I like eating chips and dip out of a trunk.

Imagine if I got to travel like this. This is exactly what I would say. Chris, I'm with you. Jessica, thank you for bringing that back up because I meant to when we were talking about it. You gave us a very detailed list of your favorite musts when it came to tailgating. But what are the tailgating Hall of Famers? Like what are the consensus? Obviously beer is a consensus tailgate Hall of Famer, but what else do you put in this list? Because she went with an assortment of dips,

and I'm always here for chips and dip of any kind, but I don't associate dips in the sunshine resulting well after three hours in the Miami heat. You might have a goopy situation, and it's not what I think of as a Hall of Famer. It's just every, I'm with you, you don't really highlight the chips, but every tailgate has chips.

Like, it's gotta be in the Hall of Fame. Burger Hall of Famer? Dips too. Dips are, burgers and brats and hot dogs I think are like the obvious things. Some like fancier tailgates will do like smoker stuff, like meat, pulled pork, a brisket. A lot of them will do like in the winter, like a chili

or something like that. What is this, the basketball hall of fame? Just letting everyone in? These aren't my hall of famers. I'm just saying the things I associate with tailgating. But for me, tailgates mean I can eat as much chips and dip as I want. I can fill up on it.

And it will sustain me throughout the day. Like it just, you don't really get a lot of situations in your life where there's multiple dips out in front of you. Like you really don't, like maybe a Super Bowl party and that's it. So tailgates are really the time where you don't just have one bag of chips and one dip. You get to try, it's a little variety.

You get to try a lot of different dips. I might be in a minority here. Dips are all right. I'll take a taste. Like, oh, that's cool. That's whatever. But then after that, I get lazy, and I just eat the chips raw. It's not just a taste thing, though.

It's like the experience of dipping something in a dip. You get every sort of dip. You get a different amount of dip. You get to work on the perfect amount of dip For the amount of chip you have you have different sized chips. Maybe you alter the amount of dip It's like a mathematical calculation really think about this just take a chip and put it in the dead I need it to a means point. That's like the star. Yes. No, it's like I'm walking in. I've seen a couple chips Okay, that's fine. What's the real good stuff? All right, there's good burger. I got hot dogs here

I got that chips is like I'll put three of them on my plate keep moving a means never made a worse point than what he Just made Queso is not I it's amazing Sorry, it's not just I it's amazing what you were saying put it on the pole Please do you at lebatard show? Do you find yourself in a lot of situations in life with multiple dips? And then there's also like, say you have a big casserole-sized dish of buffalo chicken dip.

So you have like the warm buffalo chicken and then you have a nice cheese layer on top and every dip of the chip, you get to say how much of this cheese do I want, how much of this chicken do I want, maybe there's a little spot of sour cream that I want, a little extra sour cream. The best, a little sour, a little coldness almost.

You're like, where'd this little cold sour cream come from? Exactly, every chip and dip is different. You put it on. All God's chips and dip. I stand corrected. The Buffalo Chicken Dip. Now that's, because it's almost like a meal. Exactly.

But I thought, like, queso. Is amazing. You shut your mouth. Like all that stuff, salsa, like it's cool. I'm not mad at it, but like. But I thought I was like queso is amazing shut your mouth Also, like it's cool. I'm not I'm not mad at it, but like the disrespect right now. No flying around They're not Hall of Famers. I think that's what I mean is not Hall of Famers. No way Absolutely, okay, so dip is a Hall of Famer at a tailgate Yeah in 95 degree weather everyone's in 95 degree weather. Around the world, just, God, you guys are, you guys sound like fools.

So your daughters are in Big Ten country, well, and ACC country, but when it's 100 degrees, one tailgate of the year, and then the rest of the year, you're like in an outdoor refrigerator the whole time. Everything's staying cool. You have them tailgating for Northwestern football, huh? Well. Put it on the poll, Juju, as well.

Is Queso just all right? At LeBretard's show. You guys really struggle with that word. Also, you could get the pole, Juju, as well, is queso just aight at Leventhal. You guys really struggle with that word. Also, you could get the white guy sounder for this one, but the seven layer dip, where you got the layer of the quack and then the shredded cheese. I don't like the cold beans in it. And the sour cream and the beans.

White, white, white, white, white, white, white, white. They both enjoy it, that's why. But Dan is asking for Hall of Famers. Yeah, they're just talking about whatever they want to, which is generally how that happens. Wings, Hall of Famer. I can make a list if you want. I would like a list, yes, at LeBataard's show.

Don LeBretard. Your history with him suggests three years of heaters. Those are the heaters. Three years of heaters, but this Stugatz, my partner enlivened by a sports team. We're having sex baby. And Joe Mauer, yes like this is the best version of him. What? Stugatz. No you are. Yeah. The, the, feels good. This is the Don Carl Anthony Towns, but Stugatz is going crazy because

he thinks his Jets have a good chance at Devante Adams now that the Raiders are saying that he's in play for a trade and all it would take is cash and a second round pick. So Stugatz, your thoughts here are what? As I imagine, there will be plenty of teams interested in Devonte Adams, perhaps the Chiefs among them. There are plenty of teams interested in Devonte Adams because Adam Schefter and Diana Racini, they're telling us the teams on Twitter right now that are interested. This is super fascinating from this standpoint. The Jets have to go get Devonte Adams. They are all in with this quarterback and Dan just pointed out that

the Raiders will be looking for a second round pick in cash, but perhaps someone is going to offer more for Devonte Adams and that someone I think might be Washington because if you could put that wide receiver with that young quarterback, then you're really onto something. Now Washington, I would imagine, would offer a first round pick if they had to and a second round pick if that's what it took. That's steep for where it is Devontae Adams is in his career. Maybe five years ago. His age. No, but listen, the reporters are saying that Washington might be willing to go there because they want this receiver that badly makes him a number one McLaurin because of number two, right and the Jets will have to match that because when you get Aaron Rodgers and Aaron's talking about getting Devontae Adams and you know

Devontae wants to be there you're gonna have to match any offer that any other team makes to the Raiders to get them I think it comes down to a cap space issue, too And I think Washington has the most cap space to go out and make this deal done new TV deal print more money We cover this yesterday. Okay, maybe but for right now If you're looking at the Jets you look at the Chiefs You're looking at some other teams that are maybe a little bit more strapped for cash It's gonna be very hard for them to make a trade for him because the math's not gonna add up I'm curious what you guys think of this because when people talk about the

Chiefs and their offense and how constipated it is with a quarterback we all know to be great, 17 points against the Chargers, a lot of 16 play drives, five yards at a time. Dominic Foxworth does an excellent job in a number of different realms. One of them is breaking down football. I urge you to check out his podcast and his analysis on what it is that the dolphins did this weekend where on monday night where he's pointing out that the offense for huntley was exactly the same as toa and you can't do that to a new quarterback because the floor didn't do that from a leak willis you've got to be someone who

has versatility but he's talking about why it is Devonte Adams is not a good fit in Kansas City. Let's hear this. Nobody should trade for Devonte Adams. No one. I mean, maybe somebody should but the two teams that come to mind, I would say shouldn't do it. You talking about the Chiefs and the Bills? Oh, I guess I say that three jets in there. I was thinking,

Oh, I was thinking Chiefs and Jets. But I guess I would say no to the Chiefs and the Bills. The Jets is the only one that should be considered. I said no to the Chiefs because I think that we I think the Chiefs offensive problems are more than a weapons issue. And really? Yeah, I think they're offensive. I mean, I think the left tackle. offensive problems are more than a weapons issue. And- Really? Yeah, I think they're offensive.

I mean, I think- The left tackle? It's not just the left tackle, it's also the quarterback. And maybe it's a result of the left tackle, but the quarterback is not comfortable in the pocket and he's not playing well. I think that's, and the one big play they had to worthy, they had seven people in in protection,

and it was a great throw, and I think Patrick Mahomes did magical Mahomes things in that game also, but he's very uncomfortable right now playing football, and it doesn't look great. He agrees with you, huh? It's just crazy to me that we continue to do this with the Chiefs, where at one time, they had Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelsey in their prime.

And what's happened since is just very slowly, a number of things get slightly worse and they're still 4-0. And now the quarterback is taking some of the criticism. I haven't heard a lot of that anywhere other than from Dominique. And it is funny to see that they're still 4-0. Chiefs are a bit of a mirage right now. Middle of the pack in offensive and defensive numbers

according to PFF. I have my Hall of Fame list if we want it. We do. Tailgate Hall of Fame list. Really? This is my list, okay? And I have two OLIs. Okay, so it's a top five then? Yes, it's a top five.

It's a top five. All time, like tailgating Hall of Famers. Get the fanfare ready. It is very exciting. Food edition, no beverages. That's right, just food. Okay, let's hear what you got. O-L-I chili.

Warm cup of chili. An October game, November game, warm your hands with a nice bowl of chili. We're not talking about Miami, Tony. We're talking about just out in the world. My prism. Well in fact, chili, you're not, you're specifically not talking Miami. You're talking about Miami, Tony. We're talking about just out in the world. It's my prism. Well, in fact, Chilly, you're specifically not talking Miami.

You're talking cold weather, right? Chilly, in fact, Chilly would be terrible in Miami. We don't want to be going like coffee at a tailgate in Miami, right? So you're doing, this is a- It's her list. It is her list, but I just want the context. This is in Chicago during the winter?

Big 10 countries. So Chicago, LA, Piscataway, big 10 countries. Do you have your own personal porta potty for the Chile? I'm holding it until I get to the stadium, like an adult. Got it. Like an adult. Even USC for Chile. I said big 10 countries.

Washington, LA. I think that USC is now in the Big Ten because I don't know where anybody's playing. ACC country too. Also Big 12 country. Just not Miami country. Okay. Okay.

OLI, any Halloween themed dessert. If you bring a little spooky chocolate dip pretzel to a tailgate, oh my God, I will cry. Never been to a tailgate, but I have to believe this is falsehoods. What? Falsehoods. Halloween. Yeah, you get caught up in the spirit.

This is football centric, obviously, because it's the time of the year. This is a shocking selection. Nobody, but. These are OLIs. These are OLIs. But nobody, nobody would make that a not-my whistle is not wet yet. A Halloween themed treat? Like a little spooky Rice Krispie that's a ghost?

A little ghosty? Nobody would choose that. Jess, I got a blanket that's a bunch of dogs wearing ghost costumes. Oh, that's so cute. Are you sure they're ghost costumes? But you don't go buy these, right? You just have them hanging around the house.

You throw them into the car. Number five. You make them. Number five, brats. I love a good brat. Put a little spicy mustard on it. Maybe some sauteed onions. Brats are life.

Love brat. Brat summer. Put it on the poll, Juju at LeBretard Show. Our bratwursts life. Number four. Pigs in a blankie. Oh yeah. Now the whistle is lit.

Pops in a little weenie in a little blankie. Crescent roll, pop them in the oven. warm them up, bring them to the tailgate. Pigs in a blankie. Number three. Wings. Give me all the wings. Love a wing. Tough to make though.

A little messy. A little messy and a lot of detritus after you finish eating the wing. Debris. A lot of what? Real quick, because Chris said it is tough to make. Is it frowned upon to bring pre-made food to the tailgate? No, of course not.

But like the most elite tailgates will have a cooking mechanism at them, but not every tailgate needs one to be a great tailgate. Got it. Put this on the poll as well, JuJu. Better dip for wings, blue cheese or ranch at Labattar's show. Blue cheese, obviously. Ranch, obviously. In the fields and McCoys.

Number two. Number two, soft chicken dip. And I had to put my favorite dip at number one, chips and salsa. Just give me a bag of chips and a bowl full of salsa and I'm a happy little lady. I mean, why are you waving her off with a single dismissive hand? It's a terrible hall of fame. Like StuGott's one that called the basketball hall of fame that everyone gets in. It's worse than that. It's a hall of fame where like guys want to call the basketball Hall of Fame that everyone gets in it's worse than that It's a Hall of Fame where like weirdos are Hall of Famers. You've never been to a tailgate It's true, but you mean like every Hall of Fame even the Halloween cookies like what am I doing?

Well the Halloween I was just stunned by that as in The Halloween cookie's like, what am I doing in this whole thing? You're playing a play. Themed desserts, themed desserts, I'm sorry. You should have said themed desserts then. Themed desserts are so freaking cute. What if it's before Labor Day? And I know that you are,

not only are you great at tailgating, but you're adjusting your tailgate to the season if you're bringing a themed treat to a dessert in October. Just keep in mind. I just said it. I'm imagining that this is a January playoff football game and someone's showing up with a Halloween cookie. And I don't know. Who brought the stale cookies?

You guys, you know what? This is because you guys live in Miami where it's not spooky at all here. It's not spooky at all in Florida. It's 100 degrees. There's no giant skeletons. There's no jack-o-lanterns. There's no little kids in costumes.

Just caffesito. It's just hot all the time and it's not spooky I just I didn't think okay that anyone was gonna select a Halloween like You're gonna trick-or-treat and get like heat stroke walking around your neighborhood little kids, cause it's Miami and it's so effing hot here and it sucks and it's not spooky and no one has fake cobwebs on their shrubs cause there's no nature here.

Everybody does, everybody does. You've never seen it. It just sucks and it's not spooky at all. Where are the 12 foot skeletons? Go to a residential neighborhood. Go to a residential neighborhood. I haven't seen a 12 foot skeleton in Florida in my entire life. This feels like it's Mike. From defending your favorite team after a bad loss to obsessively checking your fantasy
