Shadow show. Shadow in it. I'm excited about this week. We're starting out today with something, I don't know that this has ever happened. Greg's hosting today. Greg. No, no way.

What do you mean no? I mean, I'm born to be number two. Well, I mean, I'm looking in that studio over there and I see one person sitting in it and it's you, buddy. Where's Stugatz? I feel like you're captaining this ship today. Where is Stugatz? Where's my safety blanket?

Stugatz was here and then he walked out. How can you say you were born to be a number two when you host your own show, The Greg Cody Show with Greg Cody? That's a good point. It is with, by the way. Thank you for that, Billy. Yeah, of Show with Greg Cody. That's a good point. It is with, by the way. Thank you for that, Billy. Yeah, of course. Yeah, but that's a smaller scale.

We're a boutique podcast. Really? Yeah, we're boutique-y. But I feel like that's how these things start, right? First you start off and you're just Johnson and then you grow and then boom, Johnson and Johnson. And then you're like this massive corporation. Okay, you just associated me with Woody Johnson,

by the way. Did I? Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, they're related. Are you related? Yeah, don't do that again. No, Woody is related to the Johnson and Johnson conglomerate.

I am not related to Woody Johnson. Your voice sounds right now like it did at the 4 a.m. shift. Okay, there's a reason for that. Okay, I had a long weekend without my wife. Wow, baby. And without any dolphins or hurricanes. So basically I had five days alone at home

to do whatever I wanted, drinking, napping, football. I had no obligations for the past three days. So you may hear that in my voice. Well, what did you choose to do? I chose to do all of that. Drinking, football, and unscheduled napping. Spare us all the details. Yeah, I'm not gonna give you all the details,

that'd be too lurid. That is just you home alone. I know. You didn't call me asking to turn on the, you've learned how to turn on your TV. Or did you call Michael? Well, your mother left me a little post-it note with details because I still think ESPN Plus

should be a channel. Somebody should tell me it's channel 211. You also texted me this weekend asking me what channel ESPN Plus was. Right, that's what I mean and you didn't tell me. Yeah. I called you and I told you. Right. I told you that I tweeted out what you tell him It's not a channel. I told him it's not a channel and I just tweeted out your your text everything

I'm watching on TV should be a channel right you know what I'm saying no I agree with that But are you struggling to find football is that is that the problem? I mean a little bit you know the Thursday night game I had to jump through hoops to find that. You know, prime video or something, you know, it should be a channel. I should be able to punch 211 and there's the game. But I found the red zone. I dove into the red zone yesterday. I watched like six hours in a row of red zone, which is crazy. It can't be good for your mental health to watch that much football. But my wife was out of town. I had no obligations.

Dolphins weren't playing, canes were off. I had nothing to cover, nowhere to be. I was totally off. A single man, home alone for the weekend. That's why you hear it in my voice. Sounds gross. Best weekend of your life though. Yeah, it was really nice. It was really nice. Super nice. This is the Don Levitard Show with the Stugats Podcast. Today's episode is sponsored by DraftKings. Stay tuned because you'll hear more about DraftKings and all it has to offer throughout the show. DraftKings, the crown is yours.

Levitard is out this week. He is out in LA. He is covering the LA Clippers for us. We'll check in with him throughout the week. But we are here. We are coming off a big football weekend. We got a lot coming up this week. It's the lazy river. And there are two rules to this lazy river Greg number one have fun number two allow the river to take you wherever the river may take you okay all right all right wherever we go we go I want a picture am I on like a rubber raft I'm a in a canoe like hey you have people canoeing down a lazy river so I'm the passenger and I have others doing the labor have people canoeing down a lazy river. Okay, so I'm the passenger, and I have others doing the labor.

Have you ever been in a lazy river? Have you ever been in a lazy river? Yeah. Doesn't sound like it. In a canoe? In a canoe. What do you travel in in a lazy river? Greg's thinking of an actual river.

Yeah, he doesn't know what a lazy river is. Have you been to a water park where there's just a lazy river? You get in, it's got a little flow to it, and just goes around and around and around. It's really lazy. Yeah, it's lazy, except you're surrounded by 500 people. Right.

So you can't be lazy while in the middle of Grand Central Station. I understand, but you're not allowing the river to take you where it takes you. If it takes you to 500 people, it takes you to 500 people. That's the way it works. How do we feel about the non-tubed, annoying kid on a lazy river? It's like, all right, if you want to go fast, fine, but at least get in the tube. I don't like the kids that aren't on tubes. They're splashing everybody. That's not the way a lazy river works.

They're swimming with the flow. Yeah. Yeah. I haven't been to a water park in about 30 years. And nor do I plan to again, ever. Yeah, I would actually go, I bet it's been longer than that. What is the last water park you were at? I am not a water park guy. Really? No, I don't walk around without a shirt on.

You kidding me? You can keep your shirt on there. Well, but then you feel weird, right? You gotta do as people do when you're in a water park. Chris, are you okay without your shirt off in public? Without your shirt on, excuse me. I've gotten more comfortable with it, oddly enough, as I've gotten older.

I was in my 20s, a little insecure about it, but now I just let the world eat. Roy, you okay with it? Yes, I was shirtless in Key West. We had the content around that for the barbecue competition. So yeah, I was on video. Which you won, by the way, huh? Yes, I did.

How about that? You're not gonna ask me? Did you win? I was getting around to you. What do you mean? Jess? Yeah. Okay, good. Billy? I'm good, yeah. You're good?

Yeah, we're fine. All right. Why, can I ask Roy a question? Why do we have one o'clock hockey today? Could we have quite a nice little sports day, by the way? This is the greatest sports day of my life. We got one o'clock Panthers. No, no, no, Jess. This is the greatest sports day of my life.

Why is it the greatest sports day of your life? Because I have the Panthers. Yeah. I have one o'clock hockey. Yeah. I have game two of the NLCS followed up by a Monday night football game, Jets and Bills, for first place.

That's when you're a fan of the Jets and Mets, today is a good day. We don't get many of these days and today, I have myself a good day and it is staggered correctly. I get the NLCS at 415, I get Monday night football at 815. It's perfect, and you have the Yanks as well. I don't think you're arguing it's the best sports day. You're just saying it's as good as a Monday as you can have.

The best sports Monday of my life. It could also be the worst. Yes. I was gonna say. I'll get back to you. Is it a day where you have your hopes up or is it, you're not gonna go that far? I have my hopes up.

Yes, yeah. All right. I do. I'm sorry. I mean, the Mets are in the NLCS. They're taking on the Dodgers. So, Todd, he's good. Is sorry. I mean the Mets are in the NLCS. They're taking on the Dodgers. Ohtani's good. Is he? He is good and yeah, I'm hopeful for the Jets because it's football it's Monday night football there at home

Coaching change and hopefully a little jolt for for Aaron Rodgers. You know what's weird about Ohtani though He actually hasn't had a great postseason yet. Like he has such he has mortal numbers He actually hasn't had a great postseason yet. He has such, he has mortal numbers. He's got average numbers and we always expect him to dominate and be the guy who's already hit four home runs, but he hasn't yet. So I expect him to just be lights out from here on in. It means he's due. I think that's what it means with him.

It's been an incredibly small sample. He's due. It is. He was two for four last night with an RBI. Yeah, that's fair. I didn't watch game but great have you watched a single game in the postseason I have yeah have you yeah I watched the other day when LA beat San Diego and what a pitching performance that had to be one of the best all-time staff pitching performances in the history of the post well the Dodgers to

your point the dodgers have are currently in thirty three straight innings of shout out baseball but i'm talking about that crazy game yes where they to hit uh... a great offensive team many much i don't disappear d crawled into a hole and and it was just amazing to see mainly because i was rooting for the dodgers but you're right i mean it's on the, through six games, is batting 250.

Yeah. He's not, you know, not great numbers. No. To answer Chris's earlier question, it's Indigenous People's Day, AKA also known as Columbus Day. So there are three one o'clock hockey games. That's why my kid's not in school today. Columbus Day is taking a hit, huh?

Yeah. I mean, yes. Used to be a bigger deal. Well, I understand why it's taking a hit, and it deserves to take a hit, huh? Yeah. I mean, yes. Used to be a bigger deal. Well, I understand why it's taking a hit and it deserves to take a hit. I'm not, I'm not arguing, but growing up Columbus Day was, was a big day. Was it? It was, it was a, it's a national holiday. What do you mean? I feel like Columbus Day is, it ranks just above, above Arbor Day, you know, among holidays. I mean, Columbus. Do they play hockey on Arbor Day? I don't

know. Do they? When is Arbor Day? Yeah, I don't know, do they? When is Arbor Day? I kind of want my dad's top five most meaningless holidays. I will have that later in the show. I get what you were saying about, like, it's Columbus Day or Indigenous Peoples Day, but, like, I still don't understand why hockey's being played at 1 p.m., though.

Like, that's the connection I'm still kind of missing. I understand it's a national holiday, but I don't understand the hockey 1 PM connection. Yeah, I don't either. Probably played in places where kids are off of school. By the way, Auburn Day is April 25th next year. So yes, hockey is played on that day. At one?

Let's do it. Is this some sort of tradition is what Billy is trying to get to the bottom of? Like every Columbus day, do we play hockey at one o'clock? I believe so, yes. Yeah, really. Checks out. So Greg's gonna have a top five holidays

that have taken a hit? Top five meaningless holidays, I think is the way we're gonna phrase it. All right. Yeah, so we'll see where that leads. Because it got me to thinking about top five people in sports who can note an explorer. Yeah. Matt Holiday? That's a good one. thinking about top five people in sports who can note an explorer.

Matt Holliday? That's a good one. Okay. Oscar De La Hoya. But like, why did the Blue Jackets not play today? By the way, Auburn Day, that's the playoffs. So there's nothing in schedule right now. So we don't know if there's going to be a day game or not. Probably not because it's a Friday.

Okay. Auburn Day. We used to get Casimir Pulaski day off. That's probably the most Chicago sentence I could have said. What? Was that Polish? He was a Polish American Revolution general, I think.

He's like the father of the American Calgary. I don't really remember much else about Casimir Pulaski. Nor should you. Drew holiday. That's good. I got it, yeah. i don't really remember much else about has mere plaski who nor should you uh... through all of a was good i got it that there is only how's your football weekend great it was good i'm uh... i'm doing uh... among going into tonight's and that i found out

eleven and two really straight up i haven't figured out my line against the spread but generally when you're eleven and two straight up you're going to be pretty good against the spread so uh... it's a good week for me. FP Santangelo, it's a great name for an explorer. Yes. It really is. Yes.

Thank you, Ryan. Yes it is. You're right. Play this game all day. What'd you make of Nick Sirianni? I thought it was fascinating to watch. The Eagles, I'm gonna stand with Sirianni here and here's the reason, for people that missed it, the Eagles won the game. They beat the Browns. The Browns haven't scored 20 points in a single game the entire season.

But the Eagles win that game. And Sirianni is jawned with the fans, Eagles fans, because they're chanting that they want him fired. And so Sirianni goes at it with the fans. And then afterwards, I don't know if you saw this in the press conference, he shows up with one of his kids, which is a great move when someone's about to ask you very difficult questions. Yeah, it's like a shield.

Right, here's my kid. A human shield. Right, and he used his kid as a shield. You're right. And so Sirianni, here is why I stand with Sirianni. He is the first Eagle and only Eagles coach to make the playoffs it is first three years as head coach he's made the playoffs three consecutive years

he was a play away from being patrick maholms the chiefs of the super bowl and the fans during a way are still cheering for him to be fired yeah i understand why he would say something back to them. Nick, do you know what city you're coaching in? Right. I mean, if you're coaching in Philadelphia,

you can't have thin skin, you can't have rabbit ears, you just can't. It's going to drive you absolutely crazy. That's the one city that almost prides itself on booing Santa Claus and anybody else. And you know what? They just barely beat a bad Cleveland team with Deshaun Watson. I can see where Philadelphia fans watching Detroit decimate Dallas

can think, wow, we're barely beating Cleveland? How good are we anyway? But Cleveland, but Philly fans, he could be in the Super Bowl. And if they punt on the first series, he'll hear somebody booing. How about you just don't act emotional? How about you act like a leader of men

and you let the fans heckle you and you won the game. It's just not a good look. Like I get it. In theory, everything he's saying is justified. Like they won, he's been getting crap from the fans, but be the bigger person. Like you're the number one person in this organization, and you're just letting little hecklers get to you.

It's just not, I see both sides of this. While the Chris, the fun rabble rouser guy, I get it. It's fun, yell at the fans. But then it's like, leader of men, what are you doing? It's just a terrible look. Placido Polanco. Oh, that's a good one. Taylor suggested that one.

That is a good one. Fernando Valenzuela. Right. Placido Polanco. Oh, that's a good one. Taylor suggested that one. That is a good one. Yeah. Fernando Valenzuela. Oh. How about that? How about that? Yeah. Placido Polanco sounds like an opera singer as well.

Uh-huh. Billy, how do you feel about Sirianni? Because that's Nick Sirianni. You want him to change? I mean, he's being heckled. And so I don't see why he can't say something to the fans without receiving the blowback that he's getting. He has to be the bigger man. I mean without receiving the blowback that he's getting he has to be the bigger Man, I mean in that city. He has to be the bigger man

Yeah, if he wants to keep his job He'd be a one-on-five team now like this was it wasn't an impressive when he barely beat the Browns, right? But you're discounting the first three seasons, aren't we? I mean, no, we're just saying don't argue with fans. I mean Okay, no, it's not just that it was a home game like it wasn't like he was on the road and he was screaming at the fans opposing fans were heckling him like this is a home game. Right so he's screaming at his fans. Well he's doing what he's supposed to be doing which is beating a terrible team and he's acting like he just won the Super Bowl and he has all these

doubters and haters and all this stuff and it's like no buddy like you haven't been very good since the Super Bowl. Is it possible that he and the fans are all perfect for each other in this city? It actually says that. He kind of is the Philadelphia version of a coach. He is the fan that would sit in the stands and yell at the coach to be fired after three consecutive playoff appearances

and then beating the Browns. He is that guy. I'm coming around on this. So he knows that guy and he decided to yell at that guy because he's yelling at himself. Yeah, he's got a great Philly name, Nick Sariani. He does have the name. But there's a way to respond to fans in maybe a humorous way. Look at the fans who are booing you after a win and you say, I really apologize for

winning today. You know, I mean, there's a way to handle it without coming off. That would have gone over better. As being sent. You know what, you have to do that. That's how I would handle it. I would look right at a fan who's booing me

and say, I apologize for winning. We should do that on the Greg Cody Show. We'll have like somebody who tweeted mean things and bring them on. Right. Fine. It is a good point though. I mean, you make your point by saying, I'm winning. Yeah.

Point to the scoreboard. Right. Yes. Offense doesn't look the same though this year. No, Hertz has not been great. He's not been great. And Saquon Barkley started off pretty good, but now he's dipped down a little bit.

Yeah, the offense really has let me down. I thought it would be really good. It's gonna be interesting because you have some coaches here like Mike McCarthy might get fired. Oh yeah. And I'm not certain he shouldn't get fired. Right. You have you know you have Doug Peterson in Jacksonville who's who's in London right now. They have to stay there for a week. Yeah. And that's a team I got to tell you they played like they had to stay in London for an extra week. London's depressing. What? No, it's not. Oh, I think it is.

Yeah, it's always raining. I love London. Put it on the poll, is London depressing? It is, no it is. And when you have to stay there an extra week, that's the way you come out and play. Lethargic. What did London do to deserve

two weeks in a row of the Jaguars? I mean, poor London. Give them a real game. Give them a real game. Give them a real team. You see, that's a problem with playing games in London. They don't know American football that well. So they're thrilled to get anybody. OK, now, come on.

Hold on. Let him go. Let him go. Let him go. Yes, hear him out. See where this is going. Let him go. Let him burn the food.

Did you say, I agree with that? You said it. I think he was saying he did do that he agreed with himself I think what he was saying is they'll take any football in any form right even bad football. I mean they do that desperate That's what you said right? Yeah, they do their research. You know, I saw some Londoners, you know, we're in the the Trevor Lawrence You know surfer Cali, California surfer wig and all that so they do their research, but they don't know they don't know that Jacksonville's an Under-performing team that Trevor Lawrence was grossly overpaid and hasn't lived up to it that they're not very you know they don't know all that So disrespectful it's like as if like it when a Premier League comes from overseas over here

We're like we don't know who these teams are like you know we know man United They're the good team like people that follow sports over there know who the good teams. Okay, name three man you players. Well, I'm not first of all, I'm not going to take a quiz. Okay. That's what I'm saying though. Got you Greg. One of my buddies who's been on our F1 podcast a lot, his name spanners, he hosts the F1 show in the UK. He went to his first NFL game last weekend to the Vikings game. And he messaged me beforehand and was like, I'm going to my first NFL game. How does football work? How do they play football?

And I was like, oh God, I don't know how to start. Like there's a pointy ball. Just go, you'll have fun. You'll have fun. Don't worry about it. Yeah, have a couple of beers. Don't worry about it. Do you think they're excited for Jacksonville Patriots?

Oh my god. See, that's the other thing. In London, they still think the Patriots are good. Yeah, they do. Now they do. They still think Brady's play is bad. Yeah, where's Brady? Where's Belichick?

They haven't thought the Patriots are good since like the 1700s. I think that they know the Patriots are going to lose. That is true. Where's Tom Brady? Where's Belichick? Blimey. Blimey? They don't really say blimey.

I'm getting carried away with my story. You made that up? Yeah. Well, there was the line. We found it. They used to say blimey, but they don't anymore. I think they still do. Like bloody hell.

Honey Boo Boo is embroiled in controversy. It's funny to me. Sorry. Stugats. He couldn't stop laughing just looking at the picture of Honey Boo Boo. That doesn't sound healthy. It's his laugh. We can't make him laugh like that. It's how he's going to die. Right here just laughing and coughing.

I want to die like that. This is the Don LeBathard show with the Stu guards. Sean Sebastian J. Explore. What are you? Gesundheit? What do you mean? What are you saying? Exploring him.

I got it. Thank you. Keep up the great. I know. I'm out of breath. I've been talking a lot. Not you. You have talked more today than you talk on You know a normal day that you're in here. I really have I'm spending all my my words right my grandmother Nellie

Used to say here we go when I was talking to let him go. It's a lazy river guys I'm talking too much as a kid takes you to Nellie it takes you to Nellie She would say in your life you only get so many words. Really? So you're using, and that was her way of saying, shut up already. You know, so that, I've never forgotten that. Right.

That was a Eddie Murphy movie. Where do you think you're by in terms of your words? Also, does the written word count? Because you chose a profession in which you may be. Cheat code. Yeah, I would be silenced by now if the written word counted. Okay, good.

But how many words do we say in an average day? I'd like to figure that out. Gotta look that up. Times 70 years. If I'm on the schedule here, probably a million. If I'm not, like two. What do you imagine it is? I'm looking it up right now.

Okay, I would say 5,000 words a day. That seems like a lot. The average person speaks approximately 16,000 words a day. Wow. 16,000? But that's not including podcasters. I would also assume though that like it's not 16,000 different words, right? Like the same words count.

No, like when I'm home and not at work, the only words I'm saying are like, do you wanna go on a walk? Do you need to go nice doggie? Okay. Is nice doggie like peepee? Yeah. Talking to Lee that way? Actually, yes.

Do you want to go on a walk? Lee and I do have a disagreement about what we call like the dog going to the bath. Do you guys have, do you have like a name for taking Jumping Charlie out for number one or number two? Yes, yeah. What do you say? Well, it's sort of embarrassing, but I'm big into alliteration. So when I'm taking them out I say Go pee pee go potty go poop

Yeah, I say to Charlie go pee pee go potty go poop, right? Cuz I'm into alliteration he hears that and he knows I gotta go in the backyard and squat, right? Yeah potty in the middle. Yeah, go pee pee go potty go poo. Why are you embarrassed of that? This is it's juvenile, you know, why am I talking to my dog like it's a two-year-old? That's how you talk to dogs That's just what you do. Yeah, so Lee and I have a disagreement about what we say I say nice doggie and he says do your stuff and I hate do your stuff. Do your stuff is too harsh I don't like do your stuff. It's not dog like. No, I like nice doggie. I say Finny go poopy good boy Finny go poopy good boy Let me go poopy good boy

Whatever he doesn't go not a good boy Still get your treat though They actually break it down even more people speak around 941 per words per hour really what an exact estimate that seems like more words than I'm saying hmm I would say you you probably go over Chris. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Ethan track my next hour. Thank you. Ethan says 16,000 words an hour. So what you want Ethan to count your every word for an hour? Yep. All right. Wow. Ethan count mine as well. And mine. Yep count everyone's. Yeah you don't count it.

What if it's a slurred word though? Okay. That's not a slur. No no but he's yeah it's different usage is a word slur. Is that kind of one elongated word? That kind of thing the way you say it is one word. Yeah I feel like it's one word. I think so too. Yes I do. What do you do if you're jerry jones this morning you know you act like you're not thinking of firing anybody and you publicly give mccarthy one more uh... you know flaccid vote of confidence when in the background you're going this ain't working

this guy's not working we just lost by a thousand points to an up-and-coming Detroit team We got to make a change. I mean I seriously I think McCarthy's He better go in a five game winning streak and right the ship because I think he's in real But that is just like that's I kind of get annoyed with dolphin fans that are like doing this with McDaniel right now They're so injured on defense. Oh, yeah How are they supposed to win? Yes, so it's just like Mike McCarthy,

when his team was healthy last season, good enough coach, but when his entire defense is injured, yeah, he's not gonna win as much. Yeah, when Mike McDaniel loses his quarterback, it's not gonna look the same. Like I get, you gotta make the adjustments, you gotta play with what you have, but just to be like Mike McCarthy,

not as good a coach as he was a few weeks ago when they couldn't be more injured on defense, right? But if you're looking at next coach fired odds which come out every week how macabre you see McCarthy up there? You don't see McDaniel everybody realizes that when you're missing Tua You're not the same team let alone the defensive injuries, but talk about a Pyrrhic victory Detroit winning the way they won and losing Aiden Hutchinson team let alone the defensive injuries but talk about a Pyrrhic victory Detroit winning the way they won and losing Aiden Hutchinson it was such a gruesome leg he's their best defensive player by far right he's like a TJ Watt he's he's their best player probably on the on the team let alone defense and what a gruesome

leg injury he's out the whole season and probably into next year. It's just terrible. The next five games for the Cowboys are the 49ers, Falcons, Eagles, Texans, Commanders. It's probably more likely that he's not the coach after five games than he's won five straight. That's a tough run. Do you guys see it was Jerry Jones' birthday yesterday too? Yeah.

And also did you guys see that? 82. It doesn't look like a day over 104? I was actually surprised how young he was I thought he was way older than he's an old 82 He's a very old 82 high mileage the AT&T Stadium sun sun Coming straight into the window like in Dak Prescott's eyes on that one drive. I found out yesterday They apparently have curtains that cover that window. What? And they don't use them during NFL games.

Did you guys know this? No. Apparently they have curtains? The Dolphins do this better than anyone affecting, like, it's like a Petri dish. Their stadium is designed, like, it's just like, the sun is only on the opposing sideline. Yeah, it's great.

The Cowboys seem to be affecting their players as well. Really? It's like, if you're gonna do this, if you're gonna be blinding people, it needs to be the opposing sidelines. The Cowboys seem to be affecting their players as well. It's like, if you're gonna do this, if you're gonna be blinding people, it needs to be the opposing team here. We need to close those shades when Dak's on the field, and then the shades open up when the other team's on the field, something. Here's another reason Jerry Jones

is in a bad mood this season. He's seeing Washington rising like a Phoenix. He's seeing Jaden Danieliels potentially a star quarterback and washington's pretty good now and all of a sudden a team he could count on beating twice a year is probably better than he is right now let alone philadelphia washington coming on like they are jerry jones right now is beside himself he's got to do something uh... what should he do because his only option is to fire mike mccarthy he

stopped with that press got he stopped with the guys that he has he signed most Well, what should he do? Because his only option is to fire Mike McCarthy. He stuck with Dak Prescott. He stuck with the guys that he has. He signed most of them to big deals. That's why he said he couldn't afford Derrick Henry during the offseason. He had to pay his guys. Mike McCarthy has not won a playoff game as the Dallas Cowboys head coach lost to the Packers at home last year. The only thing he can do is get rid of McCarthy and hire one hire one of these big-name coaches that is out there yeah the problem is the running game has been awful but when you have that president this is going to be the way jerry jones is thinking

i have that press got and cd lamb possibly the best receiver in football how can i not score ten points in a game you know i mean is that the defense is one thing the decimated defense given up that many points but offensively how can I score nine points with the offense I've got right it seems it's perplexing yeah and so it seems like they need a jolt and they kind of bailed on Mike McCarthy

that's what it seems like I just don't get if you have Mike Vrabel is out there and Bill Belichick is out there. These aren't like two normal coaches. These are two great coaches and one of them is the greatest coach in the history of the sport. These teams, it should be a race to get to Bill Belichick. You should fire your coach yesterday to get to Belichick. I mean that's what I would be doing. And Dallas, if you're Bill Belichick, I think Dallas is pretty attractive. That would be the team I'd want to go to if I'm Belichick. That would be the team. I mean you have Dak, you have talent there. Yeah you have talent. And he'll take care of the defense. Yeah the defense

though, I mean and the injured guys won't be injured forever. I mean they will be good again on defense. But you're right, Belichick makes sense. He does. So I kind of stepped in it a few minutes ago. I like was being all condescending, being like, yeah, we know over here that Man U's good. Apparently Man U's not good this year. Yeah.

So as I was like heckling them, saying that they know about our sports, we know about theirs, I was wrong. I meant Man City. Yeah, you meant Man City. That's what I meant. Man City. It's early in the season. City's meant man city yeah early in the season

man you 14th on the table not great it's early though early days they named a team after the Levitard show hey so she did there one o'clock hockey Roy yeah Columbus Day staple I mean I don't get why the blue jackets aren't playing today like this is is their day. Yeah, it should be. They should own the day, right? Big hockey fan, Columbus. Not a great start to the icecat season.

Right. One and one start. We lost Barkoff for a few weeks already. Kachuk was sick last game. You know, got to strap it on early on in the year here. How long is Barkie out? Two to three weeks. Wow. Now's the time to get injured, though. It is.

Now's the time. OK. Good timing. Well, Roy, you would agree if you're going to get injured, get injured early, right? I don't want to be injured, but yeah, sure. OK, would you rather be injured now or like, you know? It's like the Sixers are holding out

in bead for the entire preseason. You don't want to get hurt now. No, so long as I get back in a reasonable time, like two to three weeks is reasonable, so sure. Well, I guess to Billy hurt now. No, so long as I get back, you know, in a reasonable time, like two to three weeks is reasonable. So sure. Well, I guess to Billy's point, that would be the best time to get injured is the preseason. Yes, that's the best time to get injured. The preseason. Yes, exactly. Yeah.

You have the entire season to get healthy. Yeah. You know what I'm seeing a lot of? What's that Chris? Shifting gears here as we just take a little jog around the local sports teams. Lazy River. With the preseason, you guys got me thinking about the heat. I'm seeing a lot of social media videos

of Bam shooting threes. I don't know if it's the media, I don't know if it's the heat. They're trying to get the notion out there. He's ready to stretch? He's ready, he's ready to stretch the floor. That's what he's ready to do. That will happen.

Go on. I mean, Izzy mentioned that when he was on our podcast last week, Izzy mentioned that when he was on our podcast last week is he mentioned that He thinks we're gonna see a new and improved BAM because when you come off the Olympic experience when you win gold it it does something for you It makes you a better three-point shooter. Well in this case they need him to be that and he will be that You know, and I still think they're a mid table team though that you mentioned will be that you know and I still think they're a mid table team though that you mentioned man you the Heat are a mid table team right now I think they're

13th or 14th and betting odds for the NBA title they're nowhere you know they're just an also ran team right now that has to prove they're not and so you know Jimmy is gonna play the usual you know know, 52 games during the regular season. He's saying he's gonna play more. Okay, well we'll see. Like he said in his press conference, I heard Pat and I will be available as much as I can. But your dad is saying he'll believe it when he sees it.

Yeah, I tend to agree with my dad. I don't like the videos, putting them out. Now there's an expectation for Bam to hit threes and be good at hitting threes and he might not be that good at it. It's not just the team though, like Tobin, I saw Brendan Tobin putting out his student. It's like everyone's watching.

Everyone's keeping an eye out for Bam on the three pointers. They need something and that could be it. Chris, what is your issue with Death Valley? We had a weird text conversation. No. Which one? No, don't even start with this. We had the oddest conversation.

It was me, Taylor and Chris. And Chris usually does not text me on the weekends, but he was watching College Game Day because I was also watching College Game Day and someone brought up Death Valley. Which one? And how tricky it is, LSU. Thank you.

And how tricky it is to play there at night and Chris took exception to it. See, that's the context is that I need here. I'm not going after the actual stats of how dominant they are at night. I learned from Taylor I mean god he was annoying as soon as I texted him that I got every stat ever Invented about LSU at night, but all I said was is that these broadcasters?

It's kind of like with Belichick Stu gots. Let's play the game. Okay, the Belichick crutch for analysts What would analysts always say when talking about a Belichick team? Well prepared. Well prepared, it's more specific, they're gonna take something away. What's Belichick gonna take away? You can't. Your best thing, your strength. You could not hear a game broken down about the Patriots without somebody saying that.

And I feel like that's the way we are with LSU night games. It's just, I heard it like 15 different people, if you're talking about the LSU game, LSU at night, LSU at night. And all I said to Stu Gotts was, if Ole Miss wins this game, enough with LSU at night. Right. They didn't win.

And like on a neutral field, Ole Miss would have been probably... Ole Miss lost to Death Valley. They didn't lose to LSU. They lost to that stadium. They didn't have to lead the entire night to the final play. I was more just crushing the crutch that analysts have of just constantly saying, oh, LSU at night, lead the entire night. I was I don't play I was more just crud crushing the crutch that analysts have Just constantly saying oh, I lost you at night. I lost you at night now granted as Taylor pointed out to me They went about 90% of their games at night. They've won 14 straight there at night, and you wrote back enough. Yeah, yeah

Enough I agree with you. I think fans and media in general Attribute too much to the venue, to the fans, to the stadium. Well, like that 90% they've won. But exactly right when they give you all the statistics proving that it's actual reality, that you can't call it just a verbal crutch. I'm confused. Are we going after the announcers or are we still going after LSU? Which one are we mad at?

Because Chris, to your point, yes, there are certain annoying things I noticed that get repeated a lot. Like last week, everyone, including our show, we were talking about the Big Ten record crossing multiple time zones. And then it just kept getting repeated and repeated and repeated, and to the point where it kind of

loses its meaning, because that has been a thing that people keep saying over and over again. But if you want to actually go after LSU and Tiger Stadium, that's a different now We're having a different no, and if you read my text my I was always just like the analysts Like I just don't like it's a crutch and if they lost I wanted to be able to go at them, right? But I don't know man. It's just they'll are pointed out since the turn of the century They are 108 and 15 in night games at Death Valley. My pivot on that was, why can't more teams have that kind of environment?

Like if you- Well, you can't just invent it overnight. This was also LSU's 100 year at Tiger Stadium anniversary game. There were a ton of alumni back at the stadium this week. It was huge. Is it how hammered they get, though? What's the difference?

Because there's a lot of SEC enthusiasm. Every SEC, most SEC schools, you get an intensity. Ole Miss has a crazy fan base. There's a bunch of good fan bases. Mississippi State. Right, you're right. There's a bunch of good fan bases. Also some that are just that crazy and exciting

that it sets them apart a little bit. And I think that everyone that's been to a night game at LSU would tell you it's a pretty crazy environment to play at. And LSU also, like, credit to their crowd because it looked like when Ole Miss had a chance at the end of the game in regulation and also in overtime to actually win that game, they were completely unorganized on offense. And I think you could probably say that the stadium atmosphere had something to do with that. organized on offense and i think you could probably say that the stadium atmosphere had something to do with that i i think that you could use a stat

like that from any good program like i'm sure alabama's record in home night games is fantastic and noter dames probably is so i don't know but i was watching the ohio state oregon game great game like eight lead changes and after oregon wins the announcers were like, you know Nobody gives Oregon's crowd credit, but what a stadium to play in what a dynamic atmosphere Just because they won right it wasn't the stadium that won that game. It wasn't the fans ugly uniforms, by the way It was the team. They're pretty good Sometimes the fans can help though that environment can help

Yeah, but you know, give you an example Greg the end of the Notre Dame Louisville game was the team, they're pretty good. Sometimes the fans can help though, that environment can help. Yeah, but you know. I'll give you an example, Greg. The end of the Notre Dame-Louisville game I was at last weekend, Louisville got a delay of game penalty coming out of a timeout in the last drive of the game, and afterwards, Jeff Brom said

they couldn't hear the play call because the stadium was too loud. So yes, there are times where the stadium does directly impact the ability of the quarterback and the sideline to communicate with one another. I agree with you though and you can't say like the the actual playing of the game is the more important thing right like Oregon won because they played just a slightly bit better game than Ohio State and they scored more points but you know I think you do have to

take into account home atmosphere I know like the people creating the spread they do they count it for What three points two or three points depending on where it is. So it does play a factor Absolutely. No, I agree with that and to contrast that when when Miami is playing a home game against anybody but Florida State It's probably gonna be they're gonna announce fifty five thousand and it's probably going to be 40,000 and nobody's going to say Miami's got a great atmosphere, although it's better than it used to be, but I would say it's one of the

worst atmospheres anywhere in college football though. Yeah, because I've been staying 45 minutes away from campus. No, not good. It's not Roy. That's not a great atmosphere. The you. I'm I'm tired of that as an excuse though. I'm not saying it's an excuse I'm

just stating it as fact. Yeah but that atmosphere is not great. The students drive cars right like they can it has to be on campus for them to go to a game. You don't want to drive a car if you're gonna tailgate and drink all day. Well that you take uber then. It costs like a hundred dollars to uber from Coral Gables. You are talking as a guy who's good. They're going to a private university in Coral gables they have the money have mom and dad have the money have you ever attended hard rock stadium as a fan like you you're speaking like someone who hasn't no I have I have what's your point like what do you mean I think hard rock is a stadium that can be great like I think the atmosphere at times oh it's a beautiful stadium really really great but

like week in and week out, maybe it's not comparable. It's vibes though. Like the vibes on LSU's campus. If you see Lucy out at these things, like she's, they're panning around to that Oregon stadium and like the look on her face, like it's just, she said Oregon was the greatest experience of her life. Yeah, it's just different. College football experience of her life. You know, a pet peeve of mine though is when fans complain about how far the stadium is from them. It's a NIMBY thing not in my backyard. You don't want the stadium to be too close to your house but you don't want it to be too far for your house. You know Marlins don't draw flies. They draw 12,000 people a game. It's not the location of the stadium. It's that they're not winning and they're not spending. So I don't want to hear an excuse from UM football fans.

Oh, it's off campus. I don't want to drive 10 miles, 10 whole miles to see my 6-0 number 6 ranked team play baloney. But Greg, it's 10 miles in Miami. That's a two hour drive. How long was your commute into work today? That was well said. It was like an hour and 45 minutes. that's ridiculous it was bad yeah i mean i told lebatard years ago he should build me a separate ramp right it would allow me alone how's that going yeah it hasn't happened yet you know i thought the whole metal like money

thing would get that done but it's been a disappointment so it's the it's the greatest monday in my sports life because i have the Mets and i have the that done but it's been a disappointment. So it's the it's the greatest Monday in my sports life because I have the Mets and I have the Jets and I guess one o'clock hockey and you could throw in the Yankees. It is also Hank Azarias greatest sports day in his life. He is a Mets and a Jets fan and he's gonna join us next. Decisions, decisions. Wait a minute are you still looking for cars on Carvana?
