Starting point is 00:01:14 Trademarks owned by Becle, SAB, the CV, copyright 2024, próximo. Jersey City, New Jersey, please drink responsibly. Welcome to the Big Sui, presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBattard podcast. I'm sorry, I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries if they're
Starting point is 00:01:43 just there. That hasn't happened to you guys? I've done it. And now here's the marching man to nowhere, fat face and the habitual liar. Stu Gatz is criticizing, he is criticizing Simone Biles for hopping at the end of a routine
Starting point is 00:01:58 and is generally saying she should win first place at everything. So Siciliano, Simone Biles, giant tragic failure today. Oh God, she just won silver. And yes, she did step out, it looked like twice from where I was watching. Sorry guys, I was in makeup.
Starting point is 00:02:14 I was kind of like looking and had the monitor on the wall. But the news here is that Biles got silver, but Jordan Childs just, I guess there was a score adjustment. It looked as if she was on the podium and then all of a sudden he's now got the bronze. So I'm trying to figure out what happened. My phone's blowing up. They've gone silver bronze on on floor and it looked like files had silver, but Charles didn't get there and then all of a sudden now they
Starting point is 00:02:42 go silver bronze with an andraje taking the gold. Hi guys. Welcome, we appreciate you being our correspondent. We know you're very busy. Go ahead Billy, ask him your question. Is gymnastics possibly corrupt? Oh wow. I got some phlegm in my mouth, yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:59 It's okay. Is gymnastics possibly corrupt? I mean it feels like there's a human element of scoring that you could just kind of give anyone anything that you want to give them, right? Yeah, I'm not the gymnastics expert, but I would say that for years, look, anything that's judged, right? Anytime you go to a scorecard, you're going to get people to disagree, right?
Starting point is 00:03:18 I mean, look at boxing for all these years. It goes to the scorecard, and you're like, really? I didn't see that score. So I'm not up on the exact like, oh, she stepped out. That's a little deduction. Sure. Yeah. But like all the little intricacies on the the the balance beam and the rings and everything like I I don't know. The one that got me yesterday was the skeet shooting.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Did you see that? It was between Chile and Great Britain for gold. And it came down to the final one and the final shots. And the the British shooter clearly hit the whatever the heck you call it, the clay pigeon, except it didn't blow up. And she starts and they said, you missed it. And she starts pointing and pointing and pointing.
Starting point is 00:04:01 And if you look at the replay play, there's clearly a chunk that comes off. I mean, she hit it, but it didn't blow up and there was no puff of smoke. By rule, that counts. But they have three judges and they conferred. And they all went, nah, we didn't see it. But she hit it. And they said she missed it.
Starting point is 00:04:21 And the Chilean shooter got the gold right then and there. And she argued and argued and argued. And it's not like you're arguing with a guy about whether or not you fouled the shooter. She actually has a gun. She is a shooter and they didn't give it to her. She got silver but she hit it. They should still be going.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Stugatz, do you wanna take up your criticism of Simone Biles with Andrew Siciliano? What's your criticism? I'm not certain if you watched the vault over the weekend, I did. Simone was great, but I don't care how high you get, okay? I don't care how many turns you do. For me, it's important that you stick the landing.
Starting point is 00:04:55 And she did not, she had the hop on both of them. She had the hop. Yes, and I feel like Rebecca, I can't pronounce her last name, but she's a great gymnast. Androgy. Androgy, that's why you're good, man. I gotta tell you.
Starting point is 00:05:06 I feel like her jumps, her vaults were better. She stuck the landing on both. She should have won the goal. The only reason she did it is because her name is not Simone Biles. Your thoughts. No. Okay. So I get what you're saying, but here's why Simone Biles won.
Starting point is 00:05:21 She is doing a vault that quite literally nobody else can do. Right. It is considered the most difficult vault in history. She invented it, basically, I mean, she didn't invent it, but she's the only one that can pull it off. The land, the plane, I mean, where'd she go? Her degree of difficulty is so high
Starting point is 00:05:43 that she's already, if she could pull it off and at least come close to sticking the landing, he's gonna win. And then afterwards she said, if by chance she comes back for LA in 28, at which point she'll be 31, which may as well be like 85 years old in gymnastics, that bolt's retired, she's not gonna do it again. So she's gonna have to come up with something else to do in 28 in LA if if if she comes back but what we just
Starting point is 00:06:08 saw there on floor there is a good chance that is her final competition period like it's over. Andrew I'm just saying she doesn't stick the landing okay for a jump that she landed a volant she steps out of bounds twice she wins a silver I mean what are we doing here? So what you're also saying is on her career possibly if she retires, she didn't also stick the landing by only winning a silver. Stu got professional critic. Yeah. Are you the guy that when when the plane lands, and there's
Starting point is 00:06:35 that little bit of a hop there? Yeah. Right. Yeah. Do you I don't clap? Do you stop by the cockpit on the first of all, nobody should ever clap on the plane lands like what the hell is going on? He's supposed to land the plane but are you the guy that opens up the cockpit door and starts like giving crap to the pilot because because there's maybe a little bit of swerve there or hop when the 737 hit the tarmac yeah it's all me choked uh we got okay we've got the rare latin uh latin two americas that we can hit siciliano with he's not traveling to any any Latin American countries Hispanic flight
Starting point is 00:07:11 It's great yes Are you kidding me I Flown Copa the Panama City a hundred times. I'm star star Alliance guy here here. Yeah. All the time. What are you doing? No, I've been there, done that. Okay. But well, because when you go to South America, and I've been to South America plenty, you know, too much, you know, inside baseball here. It's easier if you want your star Alliance,
Starting point is 00:07:35 you want your United miles to just from LA, go Copa through Panama City. And plus Panama City airport, really there's no passports. You just go to the next gate. It's the easiest thing ever. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:07:47 So Siciliano, when you land in the DR and our people are applauding, are you staring at them and judging them? Is that what's happening? A whole bunch of Hispanic people and you and you're saying, no, don't clap. That's his job to land the plane. And we're like thrilled that he did his job correctly. Juan! Way to go, Juan!
Starting point is 00:08:03 No, I think it's idiotic to clap. No, I don't get the clapping thing. But when you land at the DR, you're only like 20 minutes away from the Guardians Winter Ball facility. And as a big Guardians fan, I wanna check that out. So just get me off the damn plane. Right. Put it on the poll,
Starting point is 00:08:15 are Hispanics more grateful for life than Andrew Faciliano? Clearly! I'm like, please. Please. I don't get the clapping. I just, I don't get the clapping. I just, I don't get the clapping. Clearly you don't get it. You like judging Hispanic people
Starting point is 00:08:31 but you're being thankful that they landed safely. It sounds like you and Sugata are on the same side here. Sugata is saying like, you know what, Simone land the plane. I'm not gonna clap until you land the plane. There's a difference. You guys are saying the same thing. Simone lands the plane until you land the plane. There's a difference. The gold is clapping. You guys are saying the same thing. Simone lands the plane.
Starting point is 00:08:47 She lands the plane. I mean with a hop though. It hops and it skips. Andrew Siciliano, I wanna talk some football with him and some Hall of Fame with him. But before we do that, just as a professional broadcaster who I imagine is good as you are
Starting point is 00:09:03 that you're at least a little bit of a perfectionist if You had called the Noah Lyles thing with the wrong winner What would your next four years have been like and how much would you have eaten your entire nose? It's it's tough Lee Has been amazingly humble and he just tweeted Hey, I saw it one way and I got a little ahead of myself and congratulations to Noah Lyles. I'll be honest, I was back in the hotel room watching there,
Starting point is 00:09:31 my shift had ended maybe an hour earlier. I thought naked eye, I thought Kishane won. Because like with like seven, eight meters left, like the final 10 meters, Lyles was not in front. And my brain was like, oh yeah, Thompson won. But clearly he did not. Yeah, but I feel for him. It is tough.
Starting point is 00:09:55 It's not like, let's say you're doing football play by play and there's throw to the end zone, guy goes up, and then I think he caught it, right? But you're just waiting, waiting, waiting. You're waiting for the official to put his hands up. And my eyes go right to the official. This is not like that. Right. Like it was so close.
Starting point is 00:10:13 He called it like he saw it. And then clearly here, you know, it's it's it's not that's not even the shot. It's a clavicle. Right. As Torey explained later when they went back to the studio and as Adam Bolden said as well It's like get the the clavicle over But that's how crazy it was like your point 0.05 away and and you're from the fastest man on earth and you're finishing fifth Andrew just Scotty Scheffler trade the gold medal for a green jacket. I mean he got both this year, right?
Starting point is 00:10:44 I know but for another one, yeah. Well, he's got two green jackets and one gold medal. No, I wouldn't. Really? I wouldn't. He's already got two of the other ones. He wouldn't, but he would, though. Did he say that? I mean, that's the pinnacle of the sport. It's not the Olympics. He did not set out when he was sitting there in a driving range
Starting point is 00:11:02 when he was seven years old by himself. Yeah, man, you are a buzzkill. Why all, I know I'm an Olympic buzzkill, but listen, he's seven years old, he's on the driving range. All his friends are, you know, they're running around the neighborhood, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:13 they're creating havoc, they're going, good humor, truck pulls up and he's still sitting on the range hitting ball after ball after ball after ball. Do you see the tears? What he's thinking is not gold medal, yes, but if they play the
Starting point is 00:11:24 national anthem after Augusta, you would also thinking is not gold medal? Yes, but if they play the national anthem after Augusta, you would also see the tears. They don't though, you know, they just put on a green jacket. I mean, it's a weird moment. You're the guy that says the tears are fake.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Well, I'm not saying the tears are fake. The anthem can draw the tears out of anybody. I mean, that's all I'm saying. Did you see Djokovic? Did you see him crying? I did. Right? Yes. Okay. Yeah. Well, let me ask you this though. Since you you. You're a joke of it. Did it's a very rare and we're going to be we're shot that's exactly thirty seven andrew as as i i want honesty from you here okay pure undistilled cecilia no honesty this is about me and handsome today no it's about you and said that's right now
Starting point is 00:12:14 because you are you are a craftsman and you have seen what has happened to our industry over the last twenty years him doing what he just did when you're preparing 16 hours every night on what it is that you're doing so you can be more expert than you actually are. How enraged right now are you with Stu got his sports radio takes from another time? I mean you you are get off my lawn man right now. Yeah. I mean, I'll be honest with you at At that point with with with Scheffler yesterday, I'm thinking can Fleetwood somehow they get a birdie here on 18?
Starting point is 00:12:52 Yeah, the force, because I think they would have had to have played 18 again, which is a 471 yard hole called. I mean, nicknamed the hole of death. If you remember the Ryder Cup in 2018. I mean, that hole is absolutely ridiculous. So I kind of wanted the playoff there. But the Scottie Scheffler tears, I thought were pretty cool. Maybe I'm just a cold heart.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Maybe I'm just a softy. Yeah. You still love sports though. Like you know that Pe peacock is knocking everybody out with all of its coverage, correct? Like this is just, I'm a bit taken aback at how the Olympics have grabbed America again in a way that I have not felt in a while.
Starting point is 00:13:36 You know, I had this conversation with somebody last night. The games have been that good. I really do mean that. Like, I mean, Noah Lyles, I mean, the buildup in any, he met the hype, the Djokovic moment yesterday, even a moment, um, for Kristen Faulkner, and I'm sure this is not a headline today, but did you see is an American woman from Alaska who won the cycling road race yesterday? Um, she's 31 years old.
Starting point is 00:14:00 I'll tell the story real quick. 31 years old. She rode at Harvard. So she's an athlete, but then she was like a lot of Ivy League kids, went to New York and worked in finance and Wall Street and her career was over. She went to a cycling clinic in Central Park a couple of years ago, like something to do on the weekend
Starting point is 00:14:18 with a friend in Central Park and went, oh wow, I like cycling. Like five years ago, she just won gold in Paris and wasn't even supposed to be in the race. She was a fill in when one of the other Americans tapped out. Oh, hey, you're up, Priskin. And she wasn't leading. The two juggernauts were fighting it out like five kilometers to go.
Starting point is 00:14:42 And all of a sudden, she comes from the middle of the pack and then blows by them and wins like by a minute. I mean, she dusted them and she won a gold medal. They said it was like as big a moment in cycling in 40 years for the American. So like those kinds of stories, yeah, that's why the ratings are so good. And plus, look, it's the middle of the summer, it's something to watch and the Americans are killing it. So yeah, they're awesome.
Starting point is 00:15:16 They're good stories to tell. Andrew, I saw on social media, I believe you alluded to it earlier, are you actually co-hosting with Scott Hanson today on Goldzoner? We are. Yeah, they sent out a press release and everything. So from you alluded to it earlier, are you actually co-hosting with Scott Hanson today on Goldzone? We are. Yeah, they sent out a press release and everything. So from between 2 and 2.30, that Red Zone multiverse actually becomes a thing. Like Ron Burgundy and Wes Mantooth, except no Tridents and we're going to be together in the studio. And I think we're going to do 30 minutes. Who knows? Maybe if it goes goes well we'll do an hour I don't know but right now scheduled for 30 minutes between 2 and and 2 30 the Gold Zone
Starting point is 00:15:53 broadcast 49 gold medals in 48 hours over the weekend but I did want to get to some football with you I watched I watched some of the Hall of Fame speeches it's I don't know I'm a big. It's, I don't know, I'm a big Miami hurricane fan, so I don't know how many classes I'll ever get like this again. So Devin Hester, real selfless act, took the opportunity to acknowledge others that came before him and some contemporaries
Starting point is 00:16:15 saying that guys like Brian Mitchell and Josh Cribbs should be in the Hall of Fame. I found that very selfless and very cool. Sugatze feels very strongly that if there is a line, Hester's a line, no one else gets in, he is anti Josh Cribbs. I assume because of your Browns ties that you're very pro Josh Cribbs going in. I'm pro Josh Cribbs. I'm also, and this is going to sound weird, I'm pro Eric Metcalf.
Starting point is 00:16:39 I don't know if he totally has the resume, but as an offent, he's he's behind Hester on the returns. I think he has like 13 career returns, maybe. But if you look at our Metcalf stats and he's he's a friend. Eric was a far better offensive player, far better. He had 100 catch season. I mean, he's a thousand yard receiver. He was a heck of a running back as a rookie. The first part of his career, a far better offensive player than Devin Hester.
Starting point is 00:17:09 And he has double digit returns. Now, I don't think he gets in Josh Cripps, clearly an amazing return man. And if you look at Brian Mitchell's total yards, so yards from scrimmage and then kick a special teams yards. I think he's number two overall in the history in the 105 year history of the game. So he's certainly top three. So the idea that Brian Mitchell when he's I think number two for total yardage isn't in Canton is absolutely absurd. He's a friend.
Starting point is 00:17:42 You just hit us with he's a friend. I mean, we've hung out together He was one of my favorite players when I was younger where we're from the same area in Northern, Virginia Yeah, I where are we besties? No, do we text? Yes, I think I'm Feel like you're biased. I feel like you're compromised. You're compromised here. You're expert. On Eric Metcalf, I am compromised Ryan Mitchell look at the stats The stats Andrew. Thank you for being on with us I just want you because these guys are at the height of broadcasting and after his usual three-hour shift on Peacock's Gold Zone
Starting point is 00:18:19 He's gonna join forces 2 p.m. Eastern and co-host with his long time rival, Scott Hanson. But before you go, I just wanna know if you've ever started an interview being asked a question this poorly. Is gymnastics possibly good? Oh wow. I got some phlegm in my mouth, yeah. In your history, in your broadcasting history,
Starting point is 00:18:44 have you ever, again Billy please, ever heard anything as a first question as poor as this It's gymnastic gymnastics pop prop possibly. Oh wow. Wow. I got some phlegm in my mouth. Yeah I had mucinex over here because I have that issue as well. Do you need some? Yeah, man. No? Okay. Musinex, always good with the phlegm there before the show. Thank you for making time for us. Yeah, no, that was the worst. Answer the question, I avoided it.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Yes, that was the worst. Yes, I'm sorry. I'm avoiding the questions, okay. Thank you. Thank you, we appreciate it. Hopefully we can check in with you one more time before it's all over. Thank you for the time, sir.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Let's do it guys. All right. Tony, uh, your top five, I'm teasing it right now. Your top, your Olympic top five. Uh, I can't wait to get to it. We're going to do that next. A lot has changed over the years audience, as you've been so kind and pointing out my shirt size has changed over the years.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Look, I started this show as a 19 year old boy. Now I'm a 38 year old dad, but along the way, one staple of my life has been Miller Light. And those of you that have been listening to us know this, I've been a Miller Light guy since day one. I've been pretty honest about that. So let's get down to the nitty gritty. What is the best thing about the original Light Beer Miller Light? It sparked this debate way back in 1975, and we still haven't settled it. For me, it's the undebatable quality. It's great taste, and it's less filling. Whether you're out with your friends, at a game, at a bar, in the shower,
Starting point is 00:20:12 Miller Lite delivers Miller Time every time. You don't have to choose what's best about Miller Lite. It has great taste and is less filling. Tastes like Miller Time.

Starting point is 00:20:35 Don LeBretard. Your history with him suggests three years of hea- Those are the heaters. Three years of heaters, but this stugots, my partner, enlivened by a sportsman. We're having sex baby! And Joe Mauer, yes, like this is the best version of him. What? Stugatz.
Starting point is 00:20:52 No, you are. Yeah. The, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the,
Starting point is 00:21:00 the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the laughing at? Oh, the stock market. It's bad. It's bad. Why is that? Why is it? Why are you guys laughing at the stock market going into the tank?
Starting point is 00:21:13 Because I said to you guys, I'm going to end up working until I die. What's the plan anyway? Sounds like it's time to buy. It is. It's a great buying opportunity. Seriously. It is, it's a great buying opportunity. Seriously, it is. Hold me now, I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking maybe six feet ain't so far down.
Starting point is 00:21:37 How can you buy with no money? That was beautiful guys. Billy, how do you feel about your question to Andrew Siciliano and what happened there exactly? I've had better moments. Is it because it's hard to get back on this treadmill when we've been off for a week, two weeks, three weeks? I found it hard. Like, I found it hard to get my footing back. I warned Izzy about this. Like, Izzy got on here. You got to be careful when you get back on this treadmill.
Starting point is 00:21:59 You don't have, the whole thing moves fast and your tongue can get tied up. No, I feel fine, I took a swig of this cold iced coffee, I don't know if you drink iced coffee, and it has milk in it, so I was drinking it and then I noticed this morning, that said the expiration date is two days from now, even though I bought it yesterday, I did a mobile order, I feel like I should have longer than three days to drink this half gallon of milk,
Starting point is 00:22:23 so I was drinking it quickly, I wasn't expecting to go and then I went but it still had like the milky residue on my tongue and then it was back my throat and then you know one thing led to another. But we're fine, we're still persevering. You were doing the whole milk might be expired in your head, I've gotta drink this fast so that it doesn't drop on me? No, I wasn't thinking it, I just drank it
Starting point is 00:22:42 and now like this morning I noticed that it expires the eighth, which is like two, three days from now, and normally you get a couple weeks or whatever on milk, right, so I was wondering if maybe that's why it was extra milky on my tongue and why it got stuck is because we're getting close to the end on this milk. So it's the milk's fault that it's close to expired and stirred up your neuroses, we'll see. It's not the milk's fault that it's close to expired and stirred up your neuroses. We'll see.
Starting point is 00:23:05 It's not the milk's fault that it's close to expired. It's the person's fault that left it on the shelf and then I got old milk. I did a mobile order. Did you do mobile orders ever? Oh, big mobile order. You can't do the mobile order for something that expires quickly though.
Starting point is 00:23:18 No, but I had to. For milk, you gotta go in there and get the one all the way in the back. Mobile order is a danger. I've wondered that too. You have to choose the milk, Tony's right. No, I know. Well, look guys, if you really wanna know what happening
Starting point is 00:23:29 is that there was a sale that was going on and it was ending that day, but I could mobile order after the store's closed and still get the sales price. So instead of going in and missing out on the sale, I did it after the store was closed, I still got the price and then I picked up the mobile order the next morning.
Starting point is 00:23:44 I have wondered about that though, because like bread, I don't know if you guys have noticed like bread, you go into like a store and the wholesome man is there, not like, you know, a good person, the man that sells like the wholesome bread is there, like restocking the shelves, because like a lot of these grocery stores, the company, like I guess they reserve the inventory
Starting point is 00:24:00 on the shelf, so they go and they fill it in, and then they make the money based on what's sold. So I've always wondered if they stock, like they push the newer bread to the back so that you take the one that's expiring first and then it's like one of those dispensers that it just refills itself, or if they put the new ones in the front
Starting point is 00:24:16 and push the old ones back. If you work for Wholesome, reach out to us. 786-456-4837. Is that number, that number, where is that number? Where did that number go?

Starting point is 00:24:33 I had this feeling yesterday in the grocery store because there was a stack of avocado that were about to go bad. They were very close to being ripe. It's hundreds of avocado and I'm like, do they just throw this out every day? Do they throw out all this avocado? I had the most engagement I've gotten in anything
Starting point is 00:24:45 in a long time when I just said, the price of limes today is criminal. And it is. Have you noticed the price of limes? How about the price of everything? 10 for a dollar. The price of everything. 10 for a dollar, now it's four for two dollars.
Starting point is 00:24:58 That's insane. The price gouging limes? Yeah, limes. I get plenty of experience stocking shelves if the stock market keeps going this way. It's going that poorly? Yes. It's real bad.
Starting point is 00:25:08 It's bad for a lot of reasons, and everyone saw this coming. I talked to my accountant over the weekend because things are happening in Japan, Iran, all over the world. I've been fearing it for years. I took my money out of everything. There's global recession fears, even crypto, which prides itself on occasionally being immune
Starting point is 00:25:30 to these sort of things. Nope, people are capitulating left and right. What did you do with your money? I was having a whole bunch of conversations with people who were telling me government bonds are the safest of things. Just get out of all of the markets. Are they 90? You spoke to my grandfather?
Starting point is 00:25:44 So boring. So boring. Did he also tell you gold? Scared of American treasury bonds? You thought the rapture was coming. He told me gold, gold, gold. They are people who know more than I do about finances. I know, but just that the safest thing
Starting point is 00:25:58 beyond all safe things is just if everything collapses, everything, all Google, Apple, if everything collapses, government bonds. Our government's so stable right now. My grandfather was a big, by gold, and he was a huge Y2K guy. Huge Y2K. I think a large part of my grandfather, rest in peace,
Starting point is 00:26:20 was disappointed nothing happened because he was so prepared for it and the joke was on us because we were eating corned beef hash until like Obama was president. You know I almost bought one of those disaster kits after you mentioned it. It's like $80 at Costco. I almost got one. I'm gonna get one now after the stock market. Can you afford it still?
Starting point is 00:26:39 I don't know. So the government that's $40 trillion in debt is what you're banking on to make sure that your money is good when everything goes to shit? No, no, no is what you're banking on to make sure that You could have considered a no-top and top shot. Yeah, that's true. Mike's gonna get his money back. He gets like a three cent settlement, that's the way. This is, big news for me. I don't wanna say that I went maximum conservative, but I met with a lot of people because this is a fairly big endeavor we've taken on here.
Starting point is 00:27:18 It's got a lot of expenses and these are dangerous times. And so people who know more than me about these things at the top of the financial food chain are like, if what you fear is total collapse of everything in America, here's your safest space. But why would I fear total collapse of everything in America? Why would I ever fear that?
Starting point is 00:27:40 And so, yes. They're still your guys? Yes, they are still my guys. No one really told me that, no one that was older than me ever really told me that part of aging is about three times a year. You'll learn that you're eligible for a class action lawsuit.
Starting point is 00:27:57 So I'm just like following the status of those. You should get a Swiss bank account, Dan. I thought of that too. Like just to say that you have one. Cayman Islands too, Dan. I've thought of that too. No, that's more of the Cayman Islands. I've asked questions about where can I put some money Swiss bank account Dan More I've asked questions about where can I put some money that isn't gonna work it with me? Where like oh no, I know no no no no I have had actual
Starting point is 00:28:16 Conversations about like okay And what do I do if just Trump wants my money like if we end up in a circumstance where he just gets to have? Everyone's money How do I avoid that that's pretty dystopian gold? I think so you invested in it I'd like to think that they can bury it the pillars of American life still hold steady put in a mattress knock on wood When you're hiring for your small business you want to find quality professionals that are right for the role.

Starting point is 00:30:07 Because I really do feel that this show, as a show though, I feel that sports are moving fast. I just got done telling you 49 gold medals in 48 hours on the gold zone. Like one of the reasons this is so much fun, it's like, oh, snorting action all the time, the perfect games for our times day and night something's happening sports sports sports sports sports it's wonderful and because it moves very fast we missed out on I believe one of the coolest stories at the Olympics like better I thought than even the photo of the of the Brazilian surfer who was just up in the air
Starting point is 00:30:46 with a surfboard next to him, quintessential action shot. It looks like art and mystery. I hope in your top five list, somewhere in it is gonna be a story that we missed last week because we failed as a show to cover something correctly last week. I think I know what you're talking about, Dan, and that will be on the top five.
Starting point is 00:31:07 I'm not going to tell you where, but it's a very important story. I'm very sad we didn't cover it. We blew it. We blew it last week. Everything was moving too fast. We missed a couple of different stories. Any OLI, or we're going straight to the top five?
Starting point is 00:31:18 No OLI, straight Olympic top five. And if hydrating were an Olympic sport, you would win gold. Get 20% off your first order with liquid IV when you go to liquid IV calm and use code Dan at checkout Dan number five. That's how you land it. That wasn't a hop Dan Yeah, I have brand new flavors really sugar free flavors to my favorite lemon lime All right number five. Did you guys see the the gold? metal winning hammer throw of Ethan Katzberg.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Yes, yeah, well it's an incredibly satisfying sport to watch on mute. I don't know if you watch this, but it is satisfying. I'm on a satisfying IG algo. I can watch the hammer throw because of all the rotations that they take so quick, out of control, and the thing just explodes out of their hand and it flies through the air.
Starting point is 00:32:04 It's very satisfying. Is that a javelin car. What segment are we doing? Is it your top five? I mean, no, no, no, he asked us a question number five. I'm buying you watch There's a lot of things to watch like Dan said 48 49 medals in 48 hours a lot of things Maybe you didn't catch the villainous mustache of Ethan Katzberg, which is why I brought him up He looks like he would tie somebody to a railroad track with that mustache He's got a little bit of pale momoa. Yes. Yeah Nailed it Dan. That's a drink right there. I'm all up. So I'm confused was the moment his mustache No, the moment was him winning gold throwing up a hammer almost a hundred meters
Starting point is 00:32:40 Billy's not really working with you here. It's okay. I'm trying segment work No, I'm not his rhythms are off with you It's well because we started with number five Did you see is a question so I know if the moment was there the moment was coming or not Ethan Katzberg's mustache and throwing a hammer almost 300 yards number four number four Lyle's winning by 0.005 seconds He ran 27 miles an hour. It's really fast.
Starting point is 00:33:07 It's really fast. By the way, has anybody won by less? .005 seconds. I think that may have been the closest race we've, I mean, we've seen in our lifetimes. I didn't. Foot race for sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Slow for a NASCAR race. That was Kansas Motor Speedway. Yes, okay. Who can forget Kyle Larson? Foot race, yes, excuse me. The foot is a curl, I mean. Number three. It's not a black.
Starting point is 00:33:29 It's not a black. No. Snoop Dogg in disguise. So I want to pull up a bunch of different things. Snoop Dogg has been in disguise the entire Olympics in different things. He's been in equestrian disguise. He was in the pool with Michael Phelps. There's another one we have here I'm trying to think of.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Well, these aren't disguises. They're just, they're, what are these? He's not trying to hide that he's Snoop Dogg. No, I know, but it looks like he's in disguise because you're looking at the event and you're like, oh wow, there's Snoop Dogg. He's dressed like a fencer. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Didn't see that coming. That's just cosplay. He's not hiding though. It's the Olympic spirit. Cosplay. It's not a disguise. Bobby Valentine was in a disguise. Oh, did you see?
Starting point is 00:34:02 He actually brought that back. Bobby May? Yeah, he was like hanging around an angels broadcast and he brought back the disguise Number two the pole vaulter and his dong. Oh, that's a good story That can't show you obviously damn because of what you know, the ramifications were on What kind of pixelation we're looking at the person to surrender Cobra in the back. They knew what was going on. They're like, oh my god I can't believe it. But why is that pixelated like that? I mean, you know, you can imagine Dan standards of practice. It looks like Grover
Starting point is 00:34:34 Everybody was talking about this guy's poll all weekend, right? That polls vault is what he the headline was Olympic dreams shattered by man's own penis. Yeah, you know sometimes that happens It was the entire junk really and the still image doesn't do it justice. What does it justice is the slo-mo? Yeah, watch it in slo-mo Okay but I mean that was that was the first and only moment from the Olympics that where dreams were shattered because of Penis that was too large Gets in the way sometimes Dan Oh
Starting point is 00:35:04 Billy you're our pole vaulting authority does it yeah large. Gets in the way sometimes, Dan-o. Billy, you're our pole vaulting authority, does it? Yeah, what? Does it get in the way? If you don't go high enough, yeah. It hits a crossbar, yeah. That happens from time to time. He's still the big winner though, I mean.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Yeah, I mean, it worked out for him. Big winner, right? I'll probably get some sort of offer. But is this a common thing in pole vaulting? You're our pole vaulting authority. There's no voice anywhere in the American media. Right. Who's the guy that won?
Starting point is 00:35:31 Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter? That's the thing, he's the big winner. He's the only one anyone's talking about right now. If he has a small penis, do you think he would trade his gold medal to have that man's penis? All right, make it fine.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Was the big winner the big wiener? Go ahead, number one. How many times are you gonna do this, trade your gold medal for blank today? I was just thinking about it. That's what you do at Olympics time. Yeah, would you trade X for Y, you know? And then you see.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Which morning radio show was doing this that you decided to just lift it? I would give up the gold for a bigger penis, that's all. But you didn't win the gold. This is the old war horse coming in after the Olympics with some of his finest vintage material. but it doesn't make sense half the time He's like do you think he gives up a master? He has to already Like you win a gold you have a small penis. Okay, the guy who doesn't win it has a very large penis
Starting point is 00:36:15 He says hey, give me the gold medal. I'll give you my large penis. Do you do it? That's all you think the guy that won the medal good question actually go up and make the offer I mean, I think you get further in life by being introduced. Hey, this is a Olympic gold medal winner then hey This is a dude with a big hammer Industry but also like say we're going only fans, right? I still think the Olympic gold medalist might pull in more money Then there's no guys guys with biganks or a dime a dozen on OnlyFans. Oh yeah, look who's intrigued.
Starting point is 00:36:47 Okay, but Tony gave us top five and number five. You think you're the only Joe with a big hammer? No, Mike. Number five was the guy who actually threw the hammer. He looks like Pale Momoa. And number two was the guy with the actual hammer who you guys just said was the big winner because he has a big win. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:37:04 You can have it look like a baby's arm holding an apple. You're not gonna pull more than a gold medal winner that's just flashing it for OnlyFans. So it looks like the medals haven't been distributed yet unless I'm seeing this wrong. So like the gold medal winner has not been determined yet. So like we can still figure out if this exchange is gonna happen.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Before we get to the dramatic number one, I just wanna analyze for a second we can still figure out if this exchange is gonna happen. Before we get to the dramatic number one, I just wanna analyze for a second the idea that Stugatz is just insistent because that Fox seat is open. Skip Bayless left very quietly, no final show, nothing. Stugatz came in today with how do I stir debate? Okay, I'm gonna go after Simone Biles
Starting point is 00:37:41 and I'm gonna trade everybody's gold medal patriotism for a penis or a green jacket. What can I trade it for? Because I want to embrace debate here now that Bayless is going out to the past. You've got Djokovic sweating one of his 10 Australian opens. I've never seen Djokovic react to winning anything ever quite like that. I think it means a lot to him. I know it does, but if you play the anthem after any of the majors that he wins will cry there too. He cried before the anthem dude Mike it was a great moment. I love the match. You know, I love that was one of the greatest matches ever I agree with you said it was the greatest you called it. No, it's not
Starting point is 00:38:18 It's not a five-set match it's not Federer and adult Wimbledon Let's not get crazy, but it should be talked about as an all-timer It's not going to be because it's not five sets. But if you watch the drop shots that they were attempting in that, the tennis. I love a drop shot. I mean.
Starting point is 00:38:33 That's a game. This was your match. If you love a drop shot, they were going for things that defied physics. It was an incredible match. And Djokovic did that with a bad wheel. It was unbelievable tennis. It was. You hit a drop shot on me, I walk off the court. Obserious. Either we're going
Starting point is 00:38:51 to pound it out from the baseline, you and I, or we're not playing. Put it on the pole. After 50, does a drop shot defeat you? After 50, does it? I played Joe Rose once, many, many years ago. That's Cody's game is all drop He dropped shot and lob me drop shot and lob me Greg Cody's entire game drop me six one not the worst way to get him the junk pole vaulting by the way You can go up and then on the way down hit the top of the pole your own pole That's that he hit the crossbar. You can kind of get spiked by your own pole
Starting point is 00:39:21 Yeah on the way down or like if you're going up and you change your mind sometimes I'll snap back and you get the snap back. Boom, right there. Ooh, the shish kebab is not a good one. All right, number one, the turkey shooter. Oh, that's the story we missed. This guy, look at him. Dan, we talked about it early,
Starting point is 00:39:36 I think on the last Olympic top five, we talked about how the air pistol shooters had all this tech, they had a magnifying glass and a blindfold and they had all these suits and armors and whatever, my buddy pulls up right here, I don't know his name, doesn't matter. That looks like Juan Diaz, our old engineer. He does look like Juan Diaz, he's got his hand in the pocket of his jeans and these people are very precise with the equipment they use and he's just out there winning the
Starting point is 00:39:58 silver medal by staring your dead ass in the eye. With glasses, just normal glasses. This guy just made himself an action star like if liam neeson and all these people can do it in their 70s this guy pulling up to the olympics getting a silver medal with his hands in his jeans hands in his jeans just like a turkey strip they gave me like hey put this on he's like all right let me see look we have a picture right now on screen of what other people use to make sure that they're focused in on the target right they've got a blindfold they've got a magnifying glass
Starting point is 00:40:26 I don't know what everything looks like but this guy pulls up looks like he just came out of a bar They said hey, you can't smoke in here. So you put the cigarette out. He stands there with his hand in his pockets All right. It's good. Here we go. What do you look at? Right? Bam right there silver medal that's a win of gold That's right. Stu gots is Take your hand out of your pants and win a gold I mean. This might be the third worst financial crisis of our lives. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Government bonds, baby. All my 90-year-old friends who are saying, protect yourself. They're going to call you today. I told you! Yeah. You might actually have to be on OnlyFans after this. Welcome to Odd Eye. The Paul Volter can establish some sort of commercial career
Starting point is 00:41:06 off of the story, the headline, because not that people are reading newspaper headlines anymore, but Olympic Dreams Shattered by Own Penis, he could turn that into a marketing opportunity, could he not? Yeah, I mean, adult film, certainly, that's gonna be there waiting for him. He's only 21.
Starting point is 00:41:24 There's the Big Brother house. Still growing? Love Island, for sure. adult film certainly that's gonna be there waiting for him he's only 21 there's the Big Brother house still growing friend love Island for sure there's lots of tick-tock there were a couple of local stories that I wanted to get to today including Stu got Tyreek Hill getting restructured contract for $90 million, $65 million guaranteed. The Dolphins think it's win in the next three years with offense and the Bills are down Stefan Diggs and the Bills have been better than the Dolphins for a couple of seasons now and I don't know what the Bills are going to become. I do know that Josh Allen became very good when
Starting point is 00:42:06 Stefan Diggs got there and I'm confused even with all the reporting I've seen why that ends But I assume do I have this wrong that the kid from FSU Coleman that I love is supposed to be if Josh Allen is What we think he is which is top five quarterback, no matter what offense you put him in, he should not hurt from the loss of Stephon Diggs, right? They'll figure out how to replace that. If he's one of those guys, if he's Joe Burrow, if he's Patrick Mahomes, I mean,
Starting point is 00:42:36 Mahomes won with Tariq Hill, but then lost him and was still good. But you say Burrow, and Burrow's had more skill help than Buffalo has had the last few years. And now when the money comes calling, you're going to lose somebody like T Higgins eventually because Burroughs had more help than Josh Allen's had in his offensive huddle. That's totally fair. I'm just, I'm agreeing with you when I say that, yes, Josh Allen should be able to get it done regardless of who his wide receivers are.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Yes, he should be. If we're going to talk about Josh Allen the way we talk about Josh Allen Which is a top three four five quarterback in the NFL? He should be able to win with any wide receivers It's the Mahomes is kind of like ruined it for everybody right like you take away Tyreek Hill You kind of have a bunch of no-name guys obviously have Travis Kelsey But he just elevates the entire team enough where he can win a Super Bowl Josh Allen you take away Stefan Diggs You've got Curtis Samuel. You've got Khalil Shakir, you've got
Starting point is 00:43:27 Keon Coleman who's been struggling in camp, Mike said. Well it's been uneven. Like he came out the gates red hot, then he's been struggling with OPIs at camp. It's his first camp. But Khalil Shakir is actually the guy that has wide receiver one buzz from camp. And he was very strong to end the season. It kind of felt like to me, Diggs was slipping towards the end of the year had a big possible moment in an important game Shakir was a guy that was ascending and kind of took his job They've got two tight ends so maybe they can run a little bit more 12 max all to help him out Mac Collins is there the boy so it's like if
Starting point is 00:43:59 You're my home's level tier you have to make everybody better and you're about to do it right now or we're gonna figure out Hey, you're kind of fraud. I do think Stu got the amount of money because the Dolphins everybody's very careful with their salary cap money and where it is that they get limited the Dolphins have more guaranteed money wrapped up in three guys quarterback and their two receivers than anyone else has on offense so what they're telling you is we are winning the AFC East in the next three years with offense. We don't care what the Jets are
Starting point is 00:44:30 doing, we don't care what the Bills are doing, we don't care what the Patriots are doing. Offense is like we we are hoping that Tua doesn't get hurt, that Tyreek Hill, that that that what he's been with the Dolphins isn't gonna be undermined by any of the recklessness That's all over the rest of his life You're trusting some volatile ingredients to get you to the top of the division you are but you're also trusting a guy who from a football Standpoint has been pretty reliable over his career like he's there every single week and he is the best player in the NFL I think I agree with that so best player in the NFL
Starting point is 00:45:03 100 he was voted number one by the players. We're putting him ahead of Mahomes. Mahomes was number four. Yeah. Yeah. What are we doing? I don't know what we're doing, dude. Like he literally marched through all those guys in the playoffs. All those guys in the playoffs while everyone was doubting him. Howdy folks. We're in August now.
