Starting point is 00:00:00 When you're with Amex Platinum, you get access to exclusive dining experiences and an annual travel credit. So the best tapas in town might be in a new town altogether. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Terms and conditions apply. Learn more at Amex.ca. dot CA slash YMX Again, he's got the Clippers
Starting point is 00:00:42 up at 2 o'clock in the morning. This is just laughable. This is as bumbling situation for the Clippers as you could find every time they have a clapback to Pablo. is reporting. Why is Pablo sitting, like he's had the nuts this whole time? Like what is, what is this? Or is it just with every pushback from the Clippers and Mark Cuban, more sources reach out
Starting point is 00:01:10 with more evidence. At this point, it's laughable that the NBA investigation is going to go beyond this All-Star game so they can keep it at their fancy new arena. This is, they're dead to rights? Allegedly. I'm assuming that this was dropped purposely on Clippers Media Day. I don't know. But he is slow
Starting point is 00:01:34 playing it. That is for sure. He has all of the information and no one else has access to the information and it's too entangled for anyone else in the media to actually try to catch up. And so everyone else is behind
Starting point is 00:01:49 including the NBA. It's not just the Clippers. It's silver. It's the NBA. And you've noticed that the statements from the clippers have gotten weaker and weaker as they've gone out because now they're just afraid because it is rare for a reporter to have this kind of confidence in his reporting again and again and again. Verifiably false, Dan. Provably false is what they opened with. They opened with the statement provably false because they thought they were dealing with the normal media and there would just be one time but Pablo's not going to let go of this bone if you guys thought he was excessive with the Belichick stuff getting in clicks what do you think he's going to do with
Starting point is 00:02:29 this stuff because Pablo is governed by journalism very high on the list but higher on the list is how does he get attention for Pablo like that's that's the high that's the highest governance it's ahead of I know most humans would argue that survival is the greatest instinct for Pablo the greatest instinct is How do I get attention? Should we quickly go over the bullet points from this most recent Pablo drop for the un-initiated? It is a football Monday. People are groggy from an overtime draw that had a combined 80 points in it. I somehow lost money betting on that game, even though all I bet was huge offensive explosion all over the place.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Because I bet the Packers winning. But if you had that in Parlays, it's a push. I did. I learned that last night. I did not know that last night. That I, because the way that I had always done that before is that a tie ends up with your money getting reduced on the parlay. You don't win the parlay, but I learned last night that you actually win the parley. This is what happens when I use an old school bookie as I had to before gambling became something that was more normalized.
Starting point is 00:03:39 And so I realized in, I realized in real time last night, thinking that I had lost that my bookie had been ripping me off for. years because I did not know that a tie was a win in Parlay. What are you going to do about that? He uses a bookie responsibly. I used to. I don't anymore. Now that you have draft kings, you don't have to do, you don't have to do shady alleys
Starting point is 00:04:01 behind a Walgreens anymore. No, you just go across state lines every weekend. I used to just drop off an envelope because I was never picking one up. I used to just drop off an envelope at a cigar shop to keep distance between myself. I know that guy. Armando!
Starting point is 00:04:17 This is the Dan Levatore show with the Stucats podcast. I will ask you guys in a moment to tell me where it is that you believe we should start the show after that football weekend because I thought the college football was again better than the pro football. And it started Friday night with two games, not one. And I don't want the Friday night games to get lost just because a weekend. happened, but I'll get to the football in a second and ask your guys's judgment on where it is you believe we should start, because I don't want to start with the most recent game that was a tie in an offensive explosion, because I didn't think it was the most interesting
Starting point is 00:05:03 of the games yesterday, nor of the weekend, because really, I really found college football interesting this weekend. But I want to start with what is the biggest story locally, and It's not Jeremy at Heat Media Day. We'll check in with him there, but I don't think I'll ask him heat questions. I'll ask him Panther questions and Marlins questions because we again did the annual Marlins ruin the Mets season. Are the Mets always scheduled the last few games of the Marlins' season? Because this is an unusual thing to have the Marlins wrecking an unusual number of Mets seasons. I mean, the Mets can't feel good about losing their season when they've got Soto and they're losing to Wagamon and Norfolk.
Starting point is 00:05:45 be. Tony, look up for me, please. Outside of Sandy, what the Marlins are paying everybody, and if it comes close to what Soto is making, just what they're paying everyone outside of Sandy on the payroll, because I think the Mets should be really embarrassed by what it is that happened yesterday. But locally, and I don't want to get too far from this story, even though I know people are tired of the way we talk about the Panthers and hockey around here. but we've got the two-time defending champions. And this is a seismic injury and the worst news. I think this is legitimately the worst news the Panthers could get.
Starting point is 00:06:27 An ACL tear and an MCL tear for Barkoff that will make him at least miss the regular season. And I'm not going to assume that you could just flip a switch and stop McDavid in the playoffs because Barkoff will get back and be exactly himself. I imagine that Roy and Zaz are crushed by what it is that happened here because I legitimately can't think of a bigger injury that could happen locally. This is the most damaging thing that could possibly happen to a two-time defending champion to have a player this versatile go down on a non-contact injury and have it be both ACL and MCL, which you know is going to be a monster rehab. The only thing worse would have been like if he had his head chopped off. Yeah, it would have been bad. Like that, that's the only thing the worse.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Well, hockey players can play through that. ACL and MCL will knock you out for the season. But the torso of Barkoff could still neutralize McDavid. I was trying to think of, like, what is a local injury that made me feel the way the end of last week did? Like, maybe it was when Dwayne Wade got hurt in 2005 in the Eastern Conference finals. You know, he missed game six. He had to be shot up. He was only good in the second half of game seven.
Starting point is 00:07:41 that was really terrible. The Dolphins haven't had an injury like this. I mean, Tannahill got hurt that one year, but it's like, whatever. It's Tanna Hill. I mean, you go back to Marino in 1992, 1993. This to me, this is as devastating an injury I felt in a really long time. I was so bummed on Friday last week. Yeah, I mean, the best player on the back-to-back defending champions just got hurt
Starting point is 00:08:07 and you might be done for the season. So, yeah, that is a devastating injury. but this team is deep enough to actually make the playoffs and who knows how far they might go without him. I don't know. It's hard making the playoffs in that league, man. I don't think it's a given. Don't forget, Cachuck is out until January.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Like, I don't know that it's a given that they're going to be a playoff team. They're very deep and that depth is going to be tested. The Panther team that won last year is as great a champion of any kind as we've had in sports. It was stronger than their first champion. And the reason it was so strong is because of their depth. But it's going to take 90 plus points to make the playoffs. And yes, you're correct. that the top half of hockey is very strong
Starting point is 00:08:43 and there are no assurances that you're going to make the playoffs. And again, I don't believe that you can simply rehab and then start with playoff intensity hockey and expect Barkoff to be exactly the same player. Oh, like you're holding out that he's going to just show up and play in the playoffs. Well, I'm not. I'm hoping that there's a, look, hockey players are, hockey players are weird and playoff hockey.
Starting point is 00:09:08 People play through. You heard Maurice tell us last week what people were. we're playing through. So I assume he will try because of what it is these guys have put together and because he will never get a chance again in the entirety of his career. And there are probably zero players in the league who will ever get the chance to win three straight titles. It's a damn shame because I like their chances. And Zazz is right. I know we invoked McDavid. That's like two months into the playoffs. I think it's going to be a real battle to get into the playoffs. They play in the hardest division in hockey with ascending teams.
Starting point is 00:09:44 You know you have the lightning and you have the Maple Leafs in that division, but teams like the Red Wings and Ottawa are certainly on the come-up, on the ascension there. It's going to be a real struggle for this team without Matthew Kichuk for most of the season and without the best two-way player in the game in Alexander Barcoop to make the playoffs. They are deep enough to make it. There are wild cards in that sport. We'll see. I hate injuries. It's a seven and nine-month timeline. Even the most aggressive has a I'm like iffy for that first round of the playoffs. This is a really bad injury,
Starting point is 00:10:14 and it's an injury that every other contender in the NHL in both conferences maybe just... I would give him my knee. Would you give him a knee? I would give him both my knees. I'd give him both my knees, and I would merge my two knees into one super knee, and I would give that to him. And an elbow.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Yeah. They all pump their fists under the table. This is huge for the rest of the NHL. Put it on the poll, please, at Lebitard Show. Did McDavid pump a fist? quietly under the table when he heard of the injury, yes or no, because I understand what you're saying. There's a lot involved before you get to McDavid, and a lot has to happen for both of those teams to end up in the Stanley Cup final. But the reason Barkoff is what he is to me is because I've seen no other human being on earth who exists, who can neutralize McDavid.
Starting point is 00:11:06 That is not something that any other team in the league has. in its toolbox and so when Zaz says, this is comparable to Dan Marino going down with an Achilles tear when you knew the moment that it happened, oh no, there goes everything. And Dan Marino wasn't any kind of champion. It was just you knew you had a competitive chance and Barkoff gives you, Barkoff,
Starting point is 00:11:32 Barkoff being healthy makes you know, yeah, they're probably gonna get into the playoffs no matter how hard it is, Barkoff not being healthy makes you scared. Zaz says that he was bummed and that he was sick. I had no evidence of that from a video that was sent to me by sources. I, too, am a journalist. What?
Starting point is 00:11:52 Zaslo's not the only journalist around here. On the Georgia campus, I'm guessing. We have footage here of Zaslo doing what I believe is Pilates for the first time. Oh, come on. Have you done Pilates before? What makes you think that I've never done Pilates? Where is this exactly? Is it on campus?
Starting point is 00:12:12 How did this happen? Yeah. Who do I have to? Is Amber Wilson the source of this material? What a snitch. You know what happens to snitches, right? They get hurt. They give videos to our show that lead the show because you said you were bummed and I don't have
Starting point is 00:12:27 evidence. Is this how you get out you're bummed here? This is outside. This is right next to where they're filming SEC Nation and the Paul Feimbaum show. And they were doing Pilots. SEC Nation Pilates and I decided, you know what, I got to get my stretch on and I laid down with the nice young ladies and did what I do. If there's one thing everybody knows about me, it's not like to get my stretch on. Do you, have you done Pilates before?
Starting point is 00:12:53 Is that the first time? First time, Dan. Core strength. Everyone else has a blanket and a mat. You do not have a blanket or a mat. I raw dog, my Pilates. You what? Raw dog.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Oh. I also got other information from a source. and I want to know if this is true, you correctly picked Alabama. Sure did. On your show. Yeah, well, get some of the base out of your voice because what I'm about to reveal, according to sources here,
Starting point is 00:13:19 suggests that you're a bit of a fraud. I was told that a Georgia fan approached you. Oh, so this is true. That sounds like confirmation, even if you take the fifth. I was told a Georgia fan approached you and asked you who you thought was going to. win the game before the game and you said Georgia after publicly this is such bullshit okay I mean that that that that girl is a vixen ratting ratting me out all right I didn't I didn't reveal my
Starting point is 00:13:50 source of who else who else could it have been a jezebel who else could it have been you're right that jezebel a holl it Amber Wilson just ratting me out so you did do that then you're confirming that so you know what I am confirmed this is not the face of a liar so you know what I will confirm it. When I made my pick at the end of college football campus tour on ESPN radio, I correctly held up the Alabama helmet. That's right. That takes some balls, Dan, to say that Alabama is going to snap the longest home winning streak in the nation and the longest in SEC history. But I did it. That's right, because I'm not skirt. But when we got to the stadium, a Georgia fan rolled up on me and was like,
Starting point is 00:14:31 hey, what do you think tonight? Who's going to win? I was like, oh, Georgia, close game. I'm not whatever man like I'm not trying to get into it I thought you said you're not scurred yeah but like I wasn't trying to get into it so whatever man okay so you are scurred I always said was I'm not trying to get into it take that however you please okay that is the answer that prohibits him getting into it yeah what's up listeners I don't know about you but when I was a kid I certainly dreamed big I think when we were all kids we dreamed big whether we wanted to be astronauts presidents personally I wanted to be a pitcher for the then Florida Marlins now We're dreaming of something else, like owning our own businesses.

If you told me right now, your life depends on it, go to Santa Fe University and just take a picture. Stugats. I would die. I don't know where it is. This is the Dan Lebatar show with the Stugats.
Starting point is 00:16:19 I want to talk about that Alabama-Georgia game. It had one play above all others that I want to talk about, which is throwing a screen pass to the 340-pound guy and then watching him run 10 yards like 6th graders were trying to grab him because he just kept movement. moving the pile all the way to the goal line. But before I do that, Tony, can you give me the stats, please, on salaries with the Marlins as it relates to just Juan Soto? Because again, the Marlins just ended a disastrous Mets season that is now being proclaimed the failure by their own voices. They're saying what an epic failure it is because they spent so much money trying to make
Starting point is 00:16:57 the playoffs. And after the Guardians and the Tigers clinch on Saturday, the Marlins just ruined. the entire Mets season on the last day. The Mets go out with a wimper. They don't score a single run. Keith Hernandez and Gary Cohen are whimpering in the broadcast booth. What numbers do you have for me, Tony? So, Dan, his Soto salary in 2025 is $61 million.
Starting point is 00:17:22 The Marlins payroll for the entire team is $67 million. If you take out Sandy from that, he makes $17 million. Now you have $50 million for the rest of the players. There's nobody else on the active roster except for Edward Codew. Brera who makes a million dollars. Everybody else, other than Edward Carrera, who makes almost two, makes 1.9, everybody else makes less than $800,000. You have to get a million bucks. You find Braxton Garrett, who is on the injured list, and Anthony Bender, those are the only two other guys on the team that make a million dollars. So three guys make a million dollars. Sandy makes 17. Soto makes 61. Do you know how great it is to knock out Francisco Indore, Pete Alonzo, Juan Soto. with Norby. It's so good. And here's Keith Hernandez, who is wonderfully bitter, okay?
Starting point is 00:18:13 Keith Hernandez, I love listening to him because he's just sour. And here he is finding the only way he can to rip the Marlins because he's just disgusted with the Mets, and he's the broadcaster who comes home from a bad day at work and kicks the dog. The three-man booth, Gary Cohen's in there. I think he's the one that spits the most poison here. the Marlins. They just took a team picture in front of their dugout like they're going to the postseason. This was their World Series. They took two out of three, knocked the Mets out of the postseason. We saw the Reds celebrating in Milwaukee. Oh, that's loser talk. It was explained to me,
Starting point is 00:18:48 by the way, by Jeremy, that this is a Marlins tradition all season long. They always take a group photo anytime they win. Now, this was the first time all season that the entire team took a photo, and the Mets clearly took exception to that. It's usually the stars of the game that take a picture in front of the dugout. This time it was the whole team. team. And it's only because it was the end of the season, the end of the Mets season, specifically the end of the Mets season is what the three-man booth of the Mets think. No, it was just the end of the season. They're saying goodbye to each other and they're ending with the perfect punctuation of just befouling those stats that Tony gave. That's crazy. Is it not to think that the Marlins,
Starting point is 00:19:26 what the Marlins do? Finish like four games behind the Mets and ruin their season. That's a great season for the Marlins. Oh, my God. Is it a good season for the Marlins? In fact, find fewer, you'll find very few ever in the history of South Florida that exceeded expectations more than this one, except maybe the pandemic season where they made the playoffs on a 30 and 31 record because they played only 61 game. The Girardi season also surpassed wild expectations. Marlins are good for the occasional surprise. It's a funny little sport. I learned yesterday that the Reds were good enough to make the playoffs. Gerardi won, I think, 84 games and manager of the year. And it was an enormous surprise. And then they fired him.
Starting point is 00:20:04 That's the way the Marlins end up doing business. Where would you guys, before we get to the Hampton Farms, Nuddiest fan, where, Tony, would you start? If you could only pick one game from the entire weekend where you would start today's show, what would you think is the most important one? Dan, wow, what an incredible weekend of games. We had Friday games, Saturday games, Sunday games. I'm probably going to start if the biggest news out of the entire weekend,
Starting point is 00:20:32 which is Bad Bunny's hosting the Super Bowl. time show. We didn't talk about that. It's been 15 minutes in the game. In 15 minutes in the show, we haven't even mentioned the biggest thing on the planet, which is the biggest artist on the planet, is now gracing the Super Bowl halftime show, which is going to be unreal. Dan, that's where I'd start. You want me to do 15 minutes there or no? No, thank you. You keep saying that bad bunny is the biggest artist on the planet. He's the biggest artist on the planet. I said that five years ago, and it still rings true today. Put it on the poll at Lebitard show. Biggest artist on the planet. Is it bad bunny or is it taste? I thought it was Taylor Swift. I didn't think that Bad Bunny had... Do you listen to Bad Bunny, Dan? Some, but I don't listen to Taylor Swift either that much, and I know that Taylor Swift sells out places in a way that Bad Bunny does not. No knock on Bad Bunny. She's just got a following that I thought was larger. Am I wrong on this? You could be wrong. I would bet dollars to donuts that you're wrong. Let me run the old
Starting point is 00:21:30 search there. Okay. You can look it up. And how are you doing this? You're doing this in sales? By streaming numbers, because look, Bad Bunny has an advantage here. I mean, Anglos like his music and he sings exclusively in Spanish, so he has access to parts of the globe that Taylor Swift doesn't. Yeah, I don't
Starting point is 00:21:48 know what he's saying when he's singing, but I like the way it sounds. What would be your nominations, Zaslo, for the place that you would start today's show if you were talking about one thing of all things from the weekend? I think it's Chief Ravens. I mean,
Starting point is 00:22:04 I was in Athens this weekend for George, Alabama. It was awesome, all right? And there was some real good college football action over the weekend. Ole Miss, really good stuff. What Virginia did Friday night. But that Chiefs Ravens game was a shocker because I don't care of Xavier Worley played. I would have thought, I would have guessed anything that the Chiefs were about to fall to one and three. Maybe the Ravens aren't any good.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Well, their defense is bad and hurt, okay? So they've allowed more points. Their defense has allowed more points than have. any team in the league, and that's on a schedule that includes the Cleveland Browns. Last year, they were the healthiest defense in the entire league, and it showed this year, while I'm watching that game, there were players on the field for the Ravens that Nance did not know their names. Like, he's just saying, he's just, well, it is his job, but they're so hurt that he's like,
Starting point is 00:22:54 and the backup makes the tackle there, and he didn't know who it was. Let me give you some number, okay, numbers, because they only had seven games missed by defensive starters last year, and this year they're the most injured team. One of the reasons that that is so shocking yesterday is because a month ago, against the bills, through three and a half quarters, we all would have looked at the Ravens and said, whoa, that looks like the best team in the league. Obviously, the Eagles are that, and they've got metronome excellence now that won't make them the starting point today, even though they've won 20 of 21,
Starting point is 00:23:30 and that hasn't been done in 20 years in the sport since the Patriots were dominating it. But the other thing that made yesterday shocking is that Lamar Jackson hasn't been beaten by more than one score since 2021. Like the Ravens, since Lamar Jackson became good, you talk about Barkoff, since Lamar Jackson started playing well, that team is always competitive if he's playing. You never blow out the Ravens, but their defense is in total disarray. Do you know what it's like for me to say that that's a worse defense than the Dolphins defense, which I believe to be historically bad because they've allowed a good deal more points than every team in the league? I thought that Lamar Jackson stat was weird. And the first thing that I thought of when I saw it was, okay, it's obviously great to be in close games.
Starting point is 00:24:23 You always have a chance. But does that stat make Lamar Jackson look bad? because then it's like, do you take from that, hey, he's not necessarily always great in close games, if they always lose close games. Well, famously, when they're ahead against quality competition, they tend to open that back door up more than most teams. Really strange online discourse around Lamar Jackson
Starting point is 00:24:48 because initially there were reports that he just got benched and then it was a hamstring injury, but he's not on the sideline getting active treatment, so it looks weird. leading to a lot of people online saying that this guy asked guy out of the game was he actually benched due to his performance my son ran into Zazel mansion family
Starting point is 00:25:05 would say Lamar Jackson just quit the biggest question of the entire year is what album is he going to play most songs from right like he's got 17 different albums that are so great is it going to be that we take on a world tour now that one's good you like that one's okay that one's good we have Unverano Sinti which is probably one of his biggest
Starting point is 00:25:23 albums ever we've got Nadia Sabe like there's so many Dan How many songs are there in a set for the Super Bowl? I don't know, but I... 15, 20? I would be losing my donuts to dance dollars because Taylor Swift is streamed more than Bad Bunny. That doesn't matter, though.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Like, those are numbers. Numbers lie at the time. Yeah, but I mean, undoubtedly. Bad Bunny's the biggest artist on the planet. Okay, well, depending on the metrics. Metrics are the vibes, and the vibes are... I'm with you. He's the biggest artist on the planet.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Vibes, I'm with you. Are they creating... Hold on really quick. Are they creating whatever Taylor does on stage? I don't know if she does something like graphically or they're... some sort of like set design for Taylor. Are they doing that at bars in Little Havana? Like, Gazita, like they are at Gazottiki with Bad Bunny?
Starting point is 00:26:04 How about this Albert Breer tweet? This is the first time I've never heard of the Super Bowl halftime act. Why, guys? Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why. I mean, why would you put that out there, Albert. Stop it. Moron. That's really bad.
Starting point is 00:26:21 There is a debate around this bad bunny thing that I'm not super comfortable with. Jay-Z and Rock Nation are tasked with booking the act. Headed into this year, I was like, well, there's only one answer to who should perform at halftime. No, I was actually going to say Metallica, the Bay Area icons. That would have been doing. But then I saw the news for Bad Bunny, I was like, brava, this is a perfect artist in an important time, and this is probably the only one that I would find really acceptable to knock
Starting point is 00:26:54 Metallica, who I think is deserving over the course of their careers in that home area to be performing. I'm super pumped. You guys got people are going to get fired up for Metallica, you think? Oh, Metallica would have put on an incredible, even if you weren't fired up going into you, you would watch it be like this. Yes. I mean, they're the cattle. I know one thing is for sure. Albert Breer has heard of them. I'm sure he has. Put it on the poll, please, at Lebitard Show. Do you know anyone who says brava instead of bravo and put it also on the poll, are you surprised that Albert Breer has never heard of Bad Bunny? That seems, it seems hard.
Starting point is 00:27:33 He's a guy that watches Saturday Night Live, so I feel like he's a liar. That's his age demo is like, I'm locked in on Saturday Night Live. I'll watch who's this Bad Bunny guy. Oh, I don't like him. Okay. But don't say you had never heard him. Multiple-time host and musical guests. Come on.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Everyone knows Bad Bunny. Albert Breer evidently doesn't know Bad Bunny. What would you select, Mike Ryan, if you can only select one place, to start today. One game to start today. What would be your selection? Well, given what's been pulled off the board, I think applying just a top line macro sense of what's big in sports, I'd get into the Ryder Cup a little bit and how much Europe seemed to really enjoy that and how poorly the U.S. fans behaved during the entire weekend. Honestly, you know how Zaslo finds Inter Miami Unlikable?
Starting point is 00:28:22 Yeah. That's about how I felt about USA Golf right from the jump. And the fans kind of took their notes from the top, it would appear, from people that have covered the Ryder Cup, legacy media guys that have been around this competition plenty of times. They said that they've never seen fan behavior. Well, it's like, what were they doing? It's just yelling stuff?
Starting point is 00:28:39 They weren't just yelling stuff. They were yelling stuff that was crossing the line. Shane Lowry almost got in a fight with somebody, had to get security there. Rory McElroy is pointing to multiple people saying, bleep you, bleep you, bleep you. These guys, certainly, look, it's a weird sport to hear about trash talk surrounding one of the big events. But Europe was absolutely pissed at the treatment they received. There was a signature drink that they were selling that had a squeaky rubber duck that seemed like a bad idea. And at that hole, all these people in the gallery were squeaking the rubber
Starting point is 00:29:14 duck to whenever a European guy was at the tea box. This was bad. And to cap on, off a really bizarre weekend of social media behavior from our president. He couldn't even tell that he was being directly trolled by Europe when they invoked a European soccer champ asking Donald Trump, are you watching? And he reposted it on truth. I am watching. Congratulations. Clearly not getting it. Let's get to some of the sound from that. Let's check in with, as Stugats likes to call him, because he's a little bit dyslexic, Rory McElroy. With all that in mind, everything you go through, how satisfying is it to turn around to someone and say, quote, shut the F up and then stiff it to two feet
Starting point is 00:29:51 very sad as fine congratulations it wasn't stiff it wasn't stiff I had to put it I cannot tell you how bizarre it is to see the country club unruly like golf is
Starting point is 00:30:11 so much about do you hear those laughs then I mean, it was just, I mean, cool, a fun atmosphere, but there was one stand-up report that I saw like, guys, this isn't the waste management open, though. There is a certain dignity that comes with a rider cup. I can't do anything with that. It's effectively bullying me off the topic. But it's wonderful that he's doing it because hearing the golfers in the country club.
Starting point is 00:30:44 It's really pushing me off the topic. Hey, yo. It's like hearing Parliament do it. Just, it's weird. Don Lebatard. Where the motherfucker roeze at? Bring his ass on here. Where's the motherfucker roeze is a great question.
Starting point is 00:31:02 Stugats. Running, huh? He running today, huh? I'm ready. This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats. Let's hear some of the. the talk about fan behavior? I don't think we should ever accept that in golf.
Starting point is 00:31:23 I think golf should be held to a higher standard than what was, you know, than what was seen out there this week. Golf has the ability to unite people. Golf teaches you very good life lessons. It teaches you etiquette. It teaches you how to play by the rules. It teaches you how to respect people.
Starting point is 00:31:44 and you know sometimes this week we didn't see that so no this should not be what is acceptable in the rider cup but you know we will be making sure to say to our fans in Ireland in 2027 that you know what happened here this week is not acceptable and it's you know for me it's you know come and support your home team you come and support your team. You know, I think if I was an American, I would be annoyed that people, I didn't hear a lot of shouts for Scotty today, but I heard a lot of shouts against me. And it's like, support your players. I mean, the behavior wasn't just bad for the Ryder Cup or golf, even though that's how Rory decided to contextualize it. It was bad. It crossed the line. It was bad for a hockey game.
Starting point is 00:32:37 It was bad for a college football game. It wasn't. Mike, bad for a hockey and college football game? It was bad. No. It's a little, it's a little, It is strange to see in golf. And then they just started trolling Trump through song. So let's listen to some song here as they're enjoying singing their laughter at our president. Are you watching? Are you watching? Are you watching Donald Trump?
Starting point is 00:33:09 Are you watching Donald Trump? That is a European soccer chance. That is a nice song. It is not complimentary the way that Donald Trump took it. I am watching. Bigley, congrats. I want to talk about some of the things from college football, but I'm going to put them off to the side. And I'm going to just say for a second that Ohio State's goal line defense is the best goal line defense I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:33:40 They're short-yardage defense. Washington got to the one-yard line on Ohio State, and Washington had been 16 for 16 in the red zone with 15 touchdowns. But what Ohio State does to show you the physical advantages they have makes me think of the physical advantages that the Philadelphia Eagles have when I'm watching the game in which I don't know how you guys measure quarterback play, but one of the reasons that I know that Baker Mayfield is so good is because they put up the state. stat yesterday during the game, 40 dropbacks, two sacks, 18 pressures on Baker Mayfield. And it's like, okay, half the time, he does not have time while Jalen Hertz is throwing two underhand touchdown passes to Dallas Goddard, because it's just like, here, you grab it, giant Frankenstein guy with bolts in your neck, and you go three yards because we're just going to keep mauling people right and left, and you're going to have to change the rules
Starting point is 00:34:37 because we're physically stronger than everyone but Detroit. It's the first time in several years that this happened. The Eagles had no completed passes in the second half of their game. They won by law. Baker almost did it. You live by the Baker. You died by the Baker. That pick was brutal.
Starting point is 00:34:55 I mean, he was trying to make a play. It was tip, though. The elusiveness to get out of the pocket under that kind of pressure and just get the ball off trying to make a play. It was one third. It was like third and long and he ran for it. He picked it up. That fourth down? It's just so great to watch.
Starting point is 00:35:10 watch him. They're down 21 and you just know, like, Baker's got him where he wants him. God, I wish he was the Dolphins quarterback. By the way, I'm sad. Chris Godwin looks like a shell. I know it's his first game back, but he did not look. Fracted his ankle in like 19 place. He's given more than a game. I know. I know. He's working his way, but I love
Starting point is 00:35:26 watching this player in Germany. You don't know what you're talking about. The explosiveness. Metallica, please. Hey, hey, that says to golf. You don't get to do that. You don't get to do that to me. I think I want him doing that. No. No. I think I like his No, no, it's childish and amateur
Starting point is 00:35:41 and it's got no place of this. I hate this. Wait till Jeremy finds it. Can you stop him? This is bad. Jeremy Tachey is at Heat Media Day. I don't know exactly why. We should be talking about the Marlins. We should be talking about the Panthers.
Starting point is 00:35:58 The dolphins have a Monday night game. Give me the stat of the day music here real quick here, Roy, so that I can just give you a quick stat on the New York Jets Dolphins game. that is tonight that may not be surprising to the rest of you before we go out to Jeremy Tashay, but it's still funny. The last three Jets coaches have started O and three or worse. Waterloo game. Tyreek Hill skip practice for family birthday party.
Starting point is 00:37:06 I'm so over him. That's just like Chris Jones, right? I'm so over him. I mean, your team's Owen. He came into this season, talking about how focused he is on football, you know? He is laser-focused. Your team is 0-and-3,
Starting point is 00:37:21 and you're skipping the last practice before Monday night football against your rival for your parents' birthday celebration. It's a fun event. You have a couple hours to practice and then go to the birthday celebration. I enjoy that Zaz is now picking up the Stugats. I'm going to say
Starting point is 00:37:38 affliction of not finishing thoughts. Your team is oh and I it's all derivative of mad dog Russo. They're all children of mad dog. I don't think that's a real record in the standings though. I don't believe in the standings. It says that
Starting point is 00:37:52 the dolphins are owen own three. I mean it's very clear to see the influence here. Jeremy Tashay is at Heat Media Day so I will ask him the question on everyone's mind locally. How much did you enjoy the Marlins' wrecking the Mets season yesterday.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Maybe more than the Marlins actually making the playoffs in 2023, Dan. It was such an incredible moment to watch them just end the Mets who have five times the payroll of the Marlins and watch all the New Yorkers who now move down to Boka or West Palm Beach
Starting point is 00:38:24 right outside. It was incredible. Let's play for Jeremy the sound of bitter Mets broadcasters watching the descent of the Mets season into the final toilet swirl of sewage. I'm watching the Marlins, they just took a team picture in front of their dugout like they're going to the postseason. This was their World Series.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Two out of three, knocked the Mets out of the postseason. We saw the Red celebrating in Milwaukee. Look at that look of Jeremy as if he's walked into a bathroom that has a bad smell in it. I mean, maybe if your team played like it was the World Series, you would have made the playoffs. Instead of losing two out of three to the Marlins, who technically had nothing to play for in that series outside of upsetting the Mets. They win for nothing. One of the greatest parts was the bases were loaded and Pete Alonzo came up. You know, the guy who's going to leave the Mets this off season.
Starting point is 00:39:13 He opted out of his contract. He hit the hardest ball that the Mets have hit all season, 115.9 miles an hour off the bat, right at Javier Sanoa in left field. Javier Sanoa, who's pitched as many innings as the Marlins scored run yesterday. Jeremy, I'm pin you down here. Obviously, you know who the biggest artist on the planet is. Who is it? I heard you say Bad Bunny.
Starting point is 00:39:32 That's the answer. I understand. I understand. Intermation. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. No, you did a great job. Hold on a second. Don't tell you can't do that to me. I do it to you. You're going to handle the credentials of Taylor Swift to pretend.
Starting point is 00:39:47 Like you can laugh at them. All right, Jeremy. Thank you for joining us from Heat Media. Well, Dan, hold on, hold on, hold on. Before you sent this away, I just wanted you to know, I was going to be on the court. They had me set up to be on the court when I walked in. People were going to be high fives, hugs, everything. And then I said I was at the Levitard Show. and so they decided to put us back here in the freaking garage. So shows how your credentials have dropped out of the planet
Starting point is 00:40:09 since we threw knives at Pat Riley. In my defense, it's just what was there. I would have thrown knives at Keith Askins, if that were the cutout. I meant no disrespect to Pat Riley. I just needed a target. Can I see where it is, Jeremy is, and the glamour and pageantry of where it is that they have put Metal Arc Media,
Starting point is 00:40:29 an ascending media company in these troubled media times? Let me look at where it is. is Jeremy is because you guys did a close up there and it looked like you were at heat media day but now it just looks like you're in the bowels of the arena you're amid construction and there are no other reporters this is where mankind do his promos yeah this is this is where they put me because of you I was going to be on the court Dan I was going to be on the court and because of you and this mic flag I'm here okay we will check back in with you later we will also did anyone about me Jeremy?
