Starting point is 00:01:44 That we're platforming a dog Herbie's new dog Pete Is now taking up the screen This game has gone so wrong That it's being called by Herb Streets Dog Herb Street's dog has got a headset on. Herb Street's dog has got a headset on. Favorite part of college game day was a send-off to Lee Corso.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Second favorite part was Herb Streets' dog taking a shit where they were kicking the field goal. They jumped in it. And they jumped in the shit. Dan, did you know Herb Street's got a dog? Herb Street's running the place, man. He's like Jess around here with her dog. Herb Street just brings his dog in its shits everywhere. Oh, this is dog number two, though.
Starting point is 00:02:23 Yeah, I know. This is the – he got over that quickly. That was a quick rebound. Quick rebound by Old Herb Street there. Got to let me mourn the last dog a little bit longer. That's just my personal feeling on it. I love dogs. Love dogs. Also, like, the human names.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Throws me off. Let's work in a Rex. I would... Improper morning time. You needed to mourn the dog a little bit before you moved on. This is my golden retriever. Thaddeus. What are we doing?
Starting point is 00:02:49 What's the appropriate amount of time, Greg, just out of... You know, four months? But he could have... I don't know. I think he had this dog. also. I think he has several dogs. Yeah, so this is just his new favorite dog, I guess. Yeah, you know, as
Starting point is 00:03:01 a dog expert, I can only tell you what I know. Are you a dog expert? Yeah, I'm a dog expert. You're not a dog expert. You're not a dog expert. You have Jumping Charlie who never behaves and still doesn't behave and you sent him off to boot camp at great expense and came back and he was more behaved, but still not behaved. Okay, what's your point? That doesn't make you a dog expert. You can't call yourself a dog
Starting point is 00:03:20 expert if you, yourself cannot train your dog. My dog is well trained. Not by you? He listens to me. He could be an expert. and just be a bad dog owner. Thank you, Billy. Put it on the poll, please, Juju, at Levitard show. Can you be a good dog owner? It's not usually something you would thank someone for saying.
Starting point is 00:03:36 If you didn't train the dog yourself. When I snap my finger and say, Charlie, sit. That dog sits. No, he doesn't. And not only that, he sits at attention. I believe that. Because someone else trained him how to do it. No, I do that.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Yeah. Greg, because you did not train the dog to behave. You couldn't get the dog to behave. jumping. You had, you sent it away to how long for a boot camp. It was a month. Definitely so expensive to. Yeah, very expensive. You didn't, you didn't do that. Someone else did that for you. Whatever my dad thinks it costs, it was like double that. That's what my mom does with him. Yeah, I know. She always does that. I'm stuck in the past. That's fine. I mean, would we give for a wedding gift, 20 bucks? She laughs at me. He's a good boy now,
Starting point is 00:04:16 right? Yeah, very good. Any chance? No, just talking Billy. It's fine. You ever thought about, like, maybe, you know, jumping Charlie's Lobos? Maybe he gets in. in on the PFI fantasy or anything like that. Now he's such a good boy. You know what? If we can teach him how to pick games, I would consider that because when my then six-year-old granddaughter gets in the league, anybody
Starting point is 00:04:38 can. I've seen them do it at the zoo. They have whales and all kinds of stuff picking games. Why not Jumping Charlie? I feel like Jump and Charlie should make picks for us every single week this year. Why not Jumping Charlie? That's what I say. J.C. Another terrible idea by Billy.
Starting point is 00:04:53 I don't know. Last week we had the owner of the Packers on. You're welcome. We have a Suey Award winning spree to go through here. I don't know how winning Greg Cody was here. I don't know who won here, but I'm very excited to listen to just this is a big deal, okay? So after this, we're putting the suey's behind, which means football straight ahead, and the next few shows are going to think be dedicated to whatever it is that Pablo's doing tomorrow because
Starting point is 00:05:19 Pablo is Pabloing. I'm working on that, by the way. You're working on that story? Well, I'm a journalist, and look, it didn't quite work out the way that I wanted to, but I almost scooped Cody. No, well, we got outsmarted by Greg Cody and he, yeah, that was unbelievable. We didn't celebrate that enough. We got outsmarted by someone who is slow and dim-witted when it comes to technology. You're never going to get it. You're a half-not.
Starting point is 00:05:43 I'm trying, though. I have sources. Have-not. You have till tomorrow at 9 a.m. otherwise. I'm working it. Okay. We've got a, all of the suey winners, what are you looking at, what are you looking at, Billy? What are you saying?
Starting point is 00:05:54 I'm a half now. What? Whoa. I'm a half. Spill it. Spill it. I'm a half. Just get to the Suey's.
Starting point is 00:06:01 I'm a have. Here are the Suey winners right now. The winners of the Suey's. The winners of the Suey's. And now the winners of the 2025 Suey Awards presented by Miller Light. Best dismissal. Millie Gill dismisses Europe. Europe sucks.
Starting point is 00:06:24 I don't know if you're a word. aware of this like we keep saying like well in Europe this would have Europe is terrible which is why all of us left Europe that's why everybody's here in America because everyone decided you know what Europe is terrible like the English decided the Spaniards decided the Italians decided every single person came together at one point in time and said you know what we may not disagree on a lot of things but we can all agree Europe sucks let's just jump on this boat and see where it takes because we can't be here anymore. Because Europe, again, terrible.
Starting point is 00:06:54 No air conditioning. Everything is old, horrible. All they do is try to seal American culture and then tell you all of their old crap is so great. Europe, terrible. And it takes forever to get there. Forever to get there. If I'm boarding a plane for eight hours,
Starting point is 00:07:08 Europe better not be where I'm landing. Best, back in my day. Cruise ships. Ah, I won. Didn't deserve to win. Anything more strenuous on a cruise than playing a couple of holes of mini golf, watching my wife lose it,
Starting point is 00:07:21 Bingo, getting annoyed during some trivia contest or praying at the roulette wheel. One other thing, it's not a Broadway or a Cirque to Saleh. 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. Most uncomfortable moment.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Dan Levittard asks, NASCAR driver Ryan Blaney, what is the worst? part of the life what is the worst part of the life the worst part uh the worst part uh wrecking that's not that's good answer that sucks like that's the worst thing ever um best story david samson gave a sermon at a black church i needed their support uh for public money for the ballpark so hold I was the only white guy in there. Jewish. I am Jewish. I am white.
Starting point is 00:08:24 The white is the second. How did you, okay, so how did you dress? How I dressed is I went to visit a black teller. Hold on. No. And I had a suit made for me by Andre Dawson's tailor. So I looked like Andre Dawson, and it was awesome. I had a consigliary who was Cuban, and we had a plan of all the different people we had to
Starting point is 00:08:48 get votes from. So we went to the Cubans. We went to the non-Cuban-Cuban-A-Bara 100%. I had to go get one personally made, a guy of Adda. Best two guts dismissal. David Samson. Way too much David, by the way. I came in here thinking Greg Cody was going to be at Greg Cody Tuesdays. I left five, six weeks ago, and it was Greg, uh, Greg Cody every Tuesday. And now we replaced that with Samson. Who's asking for more Samson? Nobody is the answer. Best revelation. Abotard's parents once had sex with him under the bed. You don't understand the way that you're triggering for me the memory of being under my parents' bed when they were having, well, I didn't know what sex was at the time. The bed was just a rockin.
Starting point is 00:09:32 This is your first, this is your ultimate core memory. I think this has driven everything about your life. This is the thing. It's been buried for 50 years. How long did it last? I've got no memory. It was very short. But I didn't, I, that's in retro.
Starting point is 00:09:45 I didn't know what they were doing. I didn't know what they were doing. Why is the bed rocking? Look, for me, it wasn't even discussed. That was in retrospect. At the moment, it was just fear. These are not small people. The bed is rocking.
Starting point is 00:09:57 I'm under it. Worst of the best musical performance, Taylor Vipolis, fire Mac Brown. Well, I'd fire Mac Brown. Yeah, I'd fire Mac Brown. Watching this team is my. Personal hell, yeah, I'd fire Mac Brown. Worst mistake. Great Cody thinks he watched Wilk Chamberlain's 100-point game that wasn't televised.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Wilk Chamberlain's 100-point game. I was seven years old watching on a black-and-white Sylvania television set. This is a great story here. I thought it was, like, famously not televised. I don't think we have seen video proof of him scoring the 100, have we? Yeah, it was he held up. a sign after the game. No, but that's not the same.
Starting point is 00:10:50 That's all. This is a Mandela effect going on. Jessica, I think. You think that's a conspiracy theory? I think it wasn't televised or something. I'm just telling you, I watched it on TV. I don't trust that. You couldn't have watched it on TV.
Starting point is 00:11:02 According to the Library of Congress, the amazing performance wasn't televised and there's no videotape of the game. Only a Philadelphia radio station broadcast. You're full of it. You're just making that up. Maybe it's a figment of my imagination. Best laugh, Charlotte Wilder.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Best musical performance. Rose and Yeti Blanc. Pepper sprayed rose. There was no need for pepper spray to be rained down to me. And I sustained. Oh, our time left eye injury. Ohio State sucks drama. You lost.
Starting point is 00:11:41 That's the deal. The video clearly shows with my eye almost. blinded, there's Harry and Lucy laughing. Baby, I can tell you that I'm pissed they in Rose with the spray. Oh, she sounded like the goose was stepped on with heels, yeah. Ha ha! Even though Rose was in June,
Starting point is 00:12:09 there's Harry and Lucy laughing. Even though I was a girl I wasn't doom, there's Harry and Lucy laughing. Best Limited Fake. Unknown listeners Limited Fakes Steve from Sex and the City. Miranda? That was from the only good... Me and Mike did so many good limited fakes this year.
Starting point is 00:12:44 And just this is called Miranda? Oh, a juggernaut deserved every bit of that. It did. I left thinking that would win in a landslide. It did not win in the biggest landslide. That was Greg Cody's back in my day. Everyone picked that one. It was also the only one in that category.

Starting point is 00:15:29 Belichick's record with Tom Brady, 249 and 75 and six Super Bowl titles without Tom Brady, 84 and 104 and 103. Sucks! In the last four seasons after Brady left in New England, he's. He was 29 and 38. Dude is so washed. I love it. I love watching him there on the sideline with that stupid face. Face is pretty stupid when you're losing.
Starting point is 00:15:52 I think there's probably a pretty good correlation, though, that any successful coach is going to have a better record with the superstar quarterback than he does without the superstar quarterback. Is your face stupider? Put it on the poll at Levitard show. Is Bill Belichick's face stupider now that he's losing? Wouldn't he much rather just, like, be on the beach? doing aerobics and the whatever he was doing with Jordan where he's like holding her up and
Starting point is 00:16:18 she's like pretending to fly then coach North Carolina. You see Jordan was in the, you know, in the box in the suite before the game and she's got the giant Super Bowl ring. She's wearing Belichick's giant Super Bowl ring. You got to take that off after the 75-yard run beginning of the third, right? He earned it. Amino Hassan is with us now and I don't know that people can get quite enough of Bill Belichick's misery. It is interesting to watch this kind of karma befall him as Tom Brady signs a deal with Fox where he gets to do a job that he can be bad at and paid $375 million for it more than he made during his playing career. It's just insane when you think about
Starting point is 00:17:00 what it is that Tom Brady has parlayed all that into and what Belichick presently is mired in. The joke's on you guys thinking that you're enjoying his misery because no one enjoys Bill Belichick's misery more than Bill Belichick does. Put it on the pole. It's where he's most comfortable. Does Bill Belichick enjoy his misery even more than the rest of us do? He does like to be miserable, so maybe that's
Starting point is 00:17:21 the answer to your question. Why isn't he on a beach somewhere doing aerobic? Because he'd rather be in the game plan, trying to figure out how not to lose by allowing 48 points. I mean, are you ready to do your weekend observations here? Are you ready to get out of the gate with that, or do you need to promote? What can we say
Starting point is 00:17:36 because there's a big controversy here about haves and have-nots? And I don't think A lot of people are allowed to know much of anything about what it is that you and Pablo Tori are doing tomorrow and others. But look at the smile in his face. He knows something the rest of us don't, and he loves when that's the case. Actually, I hate it, Dan, because every waking moment of my life, I have to fight myself from revealing this amazing story. Matter of fact, that text that you, me and Sullivan were on this morning, it got me a little bit of relief because pilot could talk to somebody else about this amazing story. Billy, I don't think you were on the text thread, though.
Starting point is 00:18:11 No, but I'm a half now. I have this right here. And if you want to continue, I just almost quickly turn out. Be careful. We're not joking. This is not a joke. Pablo is Pabloing. I mean, just. Means involvement implies it's basketball-related.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Yeah, that's what I figured. No, Samson's involved. It's basketball and baseball-related. Basketball. Aha! Perhaps it requires some executive expertise of some sort. But what can you tell us? Will this be yes or no?
Starting point is 00:18:38 This will be a bigger story than all of the reporting that Pablo did on Jordan and Belichick. Oh, for sure. I mean, look, a bigger sports story. Obviously, the relationship angle, the age differential. There's always going to be something tabloidy in People magazine that's going to draw eyeballs to that story. But in terms of sports, this is bigger than the Malik Beasley story. This is bigger than the NFL stuff. because this is something that is going to impact, I think, sports immediately.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Not like, oh, big picture, how crazy is that? This is something that right now there are going to be ramifications. I'm nervous about this now. We're naturally predisposed to reduce expectations. We're overselling now. And now... Yeah, you're building this up. I don't even think we should run this episode.
Starting point is 00:19:29 I don't know. It's big enough. Yeah, you know what? You're right. Let's not ever release it. Let's just talk about it like skirting around. Well, Pablo does that. Pablo did that with Ezra Edelman
Starting point is 00:19:39 and a Pablo Tori finds out where they're talking about a Prince documentary like 12 people got to watch because Prince's estate took it all away. So it's a huge, it's more interesting than the OJ documentary and 12 people have seen it. I like the way you said estate. It sounds like the way Zaz says Thai food,
Starting point is 00:19:58 estate. Are you ready to do weekend observations? I'm born ready. Oh, really? Okay. It is time for him to share his game notes. No one in the media will tell you what happened better than my boy. I mean. Weekend observations is presented by Miller Light.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Dan? It's been so long since I experienced it. I'd forgotten what it was like. The unmistakable aroma. The distinct flavor. The bolt of energy that shoots through your body. The second the first drop hits your tongue. And just like that, make no mistake.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Football tier tasting season is back. Yes. Almost as delicious as a cold Miller light. Where do I start? Let's see. All right. Oh, he was supposed to be the Messiah. He was supposed to be the savior.
Starting point is 00:20:55 But the savvy among us always knew he was a fraud. And when the spotlight was brightest, he wilted. I'm talking, of course. about Leonel Messi. No. You that, Dan? Yeah. No.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Fraud. Titchas Cheryl was right. No. Mike Ryan's tears taste amazing. A little misdirection for you guys there. I know what you guys thought I was going to talk about. Zaslow right in his face saying he's turned on the team and Mike had no rebuttal. Zazlo, right in his face saying he is out.
Starting point is 00:21:27 I'll say it right in your face. I don't care. A rebuttal was that it's football season and everybody's out. I didn't watch a second of that game. Well, you still have tears, though. I mean, were you the most famous fan? Excuse me, I want to get back to this, but were you the most famous fan at the Georgia Tech game?
Starting point is 00:21:44 A big victory for you this weekend. We've got a lot to get to. Okay, I'm sorry. Sorry, sorry. All right. Seriously, though, we were obsessed about this one guy the entire offseason. We awaited his debut with bated breath.
Starting point is 00:21:58 He was hyped like no other on any other program could be, including this one. only for him to lay a huge wet fart on the big stage. I'm speaking, of course, a big butter check. Dan wouldn't shut up at how this guy was coming to college football to take all their stuff. Right, Dan. Bill came and took an asswhip in. Week one.
Starting point is 00:22:23 That was certainly a stranger than how Dan said a state. Something's going around today. What just happened to your voice? Were you losing confidence? I'm always ready. What happened? It's the internet. The internet.
Starting point is 00:22:34 But sometimes it. Taylor Bipolis' tears give me life. Sorry, Taylor. A little bait and switch there. Okay, let's lock in guys. All right. Jokes aside, there was a huge matchup this weekend. With national title implications in play.
Starting point is 00:22:50 A game featuring a lot of trash talk. Backed up by a storied legacy. And the loud mouth of a particular blonde podcaster who didn't even go to school for the full four years there. And now the Trash Talk Chickens. have come to Roost. I'm referring to, of course, Michelle Beatle.
Starting point is 00:23:10 You guys know she went to Texas? You're good. You're good, I mean, you keep getting us off the scent there. I think you're talking about something else, but it's a big mystery. She went to Texas. It wasn't for long,
Starting point is 00:23:19 but there are, those tears still taste good. Whatever little tears I have from her Texas roots, I love them. Beads. Arch Manning. Said Texas didn't have a target
Starting point is 00:23:30 on their back. They had lasers on everyone else's. Apparently he didn't notice. The laser pointed right between our eyes. Buckeyes. He talked all that shit and then went out to look clueless. He said red dot, though. The quote was even better than laser.
Starting point is 00:23:46 We got a red dot on everyone else. It's 38 yards through three quarters. 38 yards and zero points. We got a red dot. He's got a red dot on his forehead. And they pulled the trigger. Rand, a little suture for you guys, huh? But it's time to talk about the biggest game of the weekend.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Pitting two foes who should. shared national championship aspirations over 30 years ago. A game that featured another proud alum who didn't attend the school for four years, an alum who had no shortage of trash talk in the repertoire, and would demand a Costco side delivery of tears produced by this massive victory. Boom!
Starting point is 00:24:21 I'm alluding to, of course, myself. I drank long and deep from tears straight from the mountains of Colorado. How about them jackets? What is it about GT that makes their opponent coaches so dumb? Coach Prime holding on to two timeouts as the fourth quarter winds down. I don't blame them, though. It's easy to get blinded by the whites in Colorado.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Excuse me, the lights. Seriously. I owe Wrigley Field an apology. Boulder, Colorado made Wrigley Field look like the HBCU battle the bands if it took place in the middle of Freaknik in February. The contrast is going from Jackson State to the University of Colorado should come with an epilepsy. warning.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Splashes. Top five things. A game at Colorado is wider than. O'L.I. Thank all lives matter. Oh, a lie. Raisins in your potato salad.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Number five, the way David Samson pronounces the word Tetas. Number four, saying the words, should we watch Friends or the Big Bang Theory? Number three, when hearing a baseball player got called the N-word at Fenway, wanting to know what the player said to provoke it.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Number two, Christmas at the North Pole. And number one, Taylor Swift dancing. Yeah, it really is. It really is. Colorado, a game at Colorado wider than that. Put it on the pole, please, Juju. Should there be raisins in the potato salad? but always a no.
Starting point is 00:26:05 And those are the weekend. Oh, wait, hold on. I forgot something. Did I forget a game? Did something happen in Miami this weekend? Wait, did Mike Ryan not only dispense tears, but also consume them? Did he consume sweet, sweet Catholic tears? Delicious, nutritious, and brood in the rust belt?
Starting point is 00:26:29 Mike, did you down those tears and then slammed that? empty cup on your counter producing a sound that reverberated throughout your cabinet's kitchen did the noise ring off the stainless steel appliances and the tiles in the cabinets did the clamor bounce all around your house what's the word I'm looking for I guess I'm wondering if your empty cup of tears slam down on the counter provide the echoes heard throughout South Florida on Sunday night also was one Jessica Smetana responsible for providing those tears perhaps To the kid at the U.S. Open.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Who lost the autographed hat to the Polish CEO. Welcome to late stage capitalism, kid. Big bank, take little bank. To the Polish CEO, who later depended himself by saying, if you were faster, you'd have it. You got to strong anew. And also hell awaits. Speaking of hell, Art Bryles, those are the weekend observations.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Wendy's most important deal of the day has a fresh lineup. Pick any two breakfast items for $4. New four-piece French toast sticks, bacon or sausage wrap, biscuit or English muffin sandwiches, small hot coffee, and more. Limited time only at participating Wendy's taxes extra. Don Lebertard. Doesn't matter anywhere. We could do it in Buffalo or Baltimore, Eva. He said you could do it where?
Starting point is 00:27:50 Anywhere. Oh, whoa. Oh, that's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. He said he could do it anywhere. That's crazy, murder. Murder.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Tell him. Stugats. I had no idea of me had that in his locker. That might be his best. That's crazy. I'm not kidding. That's crazy, killer.
Starting point is 00:28:11 It's two America's dead. You don't get it. This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats. Put it on the poll at Levitart show. I want to get the phrasing right. Are Notre Dame tears, delicious, nutritious, and what in the Rust Belt? Brewed in the Rust Belt? And brood, yes.
Starting point is 00:28:37 Our Notre Dame tears, delicious, nutritious, and brood in the Rust Belt. I don't believe she gave us those tears. She said that Carson Beck's touchdown throw, the first one, was it lucky? He was rolling to his left. He was avoiding. The second one, I think, was the debate. The first one was awesome. The second one was a good throw.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Guys, I don't understand that. It was so good. Yes, I mean, you've been doing this show for 20 years. I've got to teach you guys that when they start making excuses, oh, that was a lucky throw. That's the definition of tears. That shouldn't count. That was a penalty on it.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Any kind of thing that's not, damn, you got me? That's tears. Those are the tears. Put them in my veins. It's PEDs. It's my pin tweet. Amin is a big winner this week. And Georgia Tech beating Colorado.
Starting point is 00:29:29 and Amin, Amin is only around victory when it comes to Georgia Tech football, which has gone from, you know, the widowmaker's school produced an option offense that for 10 years was trying to, in the golden space age of future football, win with the option offense. Them and Navy were the only teams trying to do it. And that team has been, that program has been altered. It's been fixed over the last two years. And are you indeed their most famous non-sports fans? I'll tell you, I walked around that stadium. It was me, buddy. I ran into people I hadn't seen in 25 years.
Starting point is 00:30:05 And they were all like, man, it's crazy. What's happened to you since we've known you? I'm like, guys, guys, I'm still the same guy. I have to remain humble and everything. But deep down inside, I was really happy. There are no other famous Georgia Tech alum, just me. I wanted to ask you guys when I saw at the game yesterday, Notre Dame has not won Sunday, excuse me.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Notre Dame is not one in Miami since 1977. So that's 50 years. It's half a century. for what is a really storied program. But over many of those years, they weren't playing. Like when Andre Johnson was on the sidelines for Miami yesterday, I was wondering if he had ever played against Notre Dame because it was nice to see Steve Walsh,
Starting point is 00:30:42 and it was nice to see Michael Irvin and some of those people who make their way back. And I'm wondering how many things like that Miami has because Miami's not great at history and certainly not sports history. That rivalry is baked and handed down from 20 and 30 years ago the same way that that Cowboys documentary is something from 30 years ago that people are enjoying on Netflix
Starting point is 00:31:01 because Miami has a sports thing that is steeped in some sort of history and Miami has so few of those. Miami has so few history, so little, so few things around anywhere in Miami that is all flash and party is about yesterday. But seeing Steve Walsh at that game made me wonder, Andre Johnson never played in a game like that. Andre Johnson brought back a different time in Miami sports because for two years the Andre Johnson,
Starting point is 00:31:28 Johnson Hurricanes tried to recreate the echoes from 30 years ago when it's Miami that's got the history here with Notre Dame at the winning part of it. The Big East kind of ruined that for a little bit. But once Miami joined the ACC and Notre Dame replicated something that they had in the Big East for all their other sports, but the ACC at the very least got them to add appearances against their other powers in that. And we're going to see this more often, by the way, as a part of a recalibrated television agreement, Notre Dame's going to be playing Miami. a little bit more often. Oh, that's awesome. 2017 added to the legacy of that. And I think that game on Sunday night added to the legacy. We had great moments.
Starting point is 00:32:05 It's one of the greatest catches you'll ever see. Certainly the best catch I think I've ever seen in person that CJ Daniels catch was a great game and great moments. And they're going to be playing more often. And it's a good thing because those two teams getting together is fun. I loved being able to explain to my younger son while we're sitting on the couch watching the game together Sunday night why this rivalry is a big thing. I mean, it's what attracted me to the Hurricanes back.
Starting point is 00:32:28 in the late 80s was this. Like my greatest sports going memory was my father taking me in 89 to the Orange Bowl number seven Miami, number one Notre Dame. Cain's kicked their ass. It's so strange to have a Miami thing that has this kind of history. It really is. I, these
Starting point is 00:32:44 are not recent games. The thing that is the celebration of Sunday night, which was college is on the football stage and for the last Sunday this season, a player like Malachi Tony can become a star because he's the only football player playing on a Sunday while everyone's
Starting point is 00:33:02 waiting for football to arrive. And a 17-year-old kid is running on the field in a way that alerts everyone. Oh, everyone, not just Miami. Oh, that kid has the potential to be a star. We might be hearing that name a lot more. It was also benefiting from the fact that it's really kind of the only game that delivered on the weekend. Even though Texas, Ohio State was a close game. It wasn't really great to watch and you got all this excitement to watch big time college football and the game's left a little something to be desired to LSU, Clemson. Okay, but that game was a really good game and it made people. And the fact that it had the tradition behind it only helped and it got people, you know, all jacked up. It's not recent tradition. Do you know what the
Starting point is 00:33:47 juice on a series has to be for it in the modern age to have so much Catholics versus convicts? Oh, wait, this is also about religion and race. To have so much of that on the bonfire that those teams haven't played important games against each other recently. Those are, the history of that rivalry is 30 years ago. 2017, did mean
Starting point is 00:34:07 a lot. That was a top 10 matchup. And they played a couple times a few years before that, once in South Ben and once in Chicago, which were not competitive games. Those are the two wins that Miami has against the top 10 program, but Miami is living off of the Miami is living off of fumes that were so
Starting point is 00:34:23 intoxicating there that they carry it into something that we can all say is still a giant rivalry even though Miami's only two top 10 wins are against Notre Dame since 2017. I mean, why are you taking notes and why are you playing? Why are you taking notes and why are you playing a flute of some sort while I'm talking? We couldn't hear you. It's a slide whistle and I played it because what was a raucous kind of segment grounded to a halt because we wanted to talk about something that we've talked about for hours and hours of the last 24 hours. What did you want to talk about? Haines King.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Haynes King. This guy that speaks my language. How about that, man? He running all over that. Why didn't prime time call him timeouts, man? He's got a... Haines King's got a bed in that locker room. He sleeps at the facility.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Let me tell you something. Haines King was so good, they retired his jersey at Colorado at halftime. That's how good he was. They're not ridiculous. They got two retired jerseys from guys that played last year. You guys don't think that's odd? Like Colorado is an odd place. I don't think you guys are fully
Starting point is 00:35:31 grasping. I think, oh, yeah, Dion, like, you go there, first of all, I cannot stress how white that place is. I was staggered. I thought that would be somebody. But literally, every black person that wasn't on the field was basically a Georgia Tech fan, which is crazy
Starting point is 00:35:47 because Georgia Tech is hardly this bastion of diversity, right? But then the other thing is, The number of people who, like, they all wore like the black cowboy hats. Like, they're trying to beat Dion. And it's the weirdest, it's the weirdest kind of imitation is the form of flattery I've ever seen. I can't think of a head coach that I would want to dress like, but they do it in Colorado. And you were a big star there?
Starting point is 00:36:11 You're a big star with the Georgia, there are, there cannot be many Georgia Tech people. There cannot be tons and tons of them around you, are there? There were a lot, man. Boy, there were a lot all over Colorado. everywhere in the airport at the game in the streets of Boulder before and after we ran shit man we took over their bars their bars were like we're closing i'm like it's friday college football weekend what are you talking about your closing at 10 o'clock oh it's because you got your ass whoop man we were out there and by the way i wasn't taking notes i was signing autographs which would
Starting point is 00:36:41 have been a fun bit had you noticed it immediately but it took you like seven minutes of talking about oh miami notre dame because we haven't talked about this enough i don't think we have talked about Miami Notre Dame and off home, be honest with you. Yeah. Why were you signing autographs? Why were you signing autographs? Because I'm so famous. I'm still signing autographs. So that's a joke. I should have stopped doing our show for so we could have just watched
Starting point is 00:37:02 you doing the pantomiming with signing autographs when I thought you were writing on a board? No, hey, how big of a game was Miami Notre Dame since 2017? Put it in perspective for me again. I don't think I've caught it over the last two weeks of the show. You're going to lose your head coach Alabama. Oh, yeah. He's, of course.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Of course. He's too successful. Mike. And your quarterback next year. Hold on now. Howdy, folks, it's Mike Ryan.
