Welcome to the Big Suey, presented by Draft Kings. Why are you listening to this show? The podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan Lebitard 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 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. This episode of the Dan Labitart show is

presented by Draft Kings. Trap Kings, the crown is yours. The world baseball classic is great. Yesterday, a player on Panama tried to fight his own manager, and it wasn't the most hostile thing that came out of the world baseball classic. There are different dialects of Spanish. Not all Spanish is the same, and actually, the apology I'm about to make now is a couple of weeks late, because a couple of weeks ago during a wrestling segment, we said something. A word was said that is a slur in Mexican, but in Cuban is just the word for slut. It's not a slur, but in Mexican, it's not, in Cuban, it's not a slur, but in Mexican, it is a slur. And Randy Arroserena, he was great in Tampa and has been less great in Seattle. He's a great player. But I've legitimately never heard the kind of

words you're about to hear in Cuban Spanish, where he makes the distinction of, I'm speaking one kind of Spanish now, but now I'm going to speak Cuban Spanish. And he's talking about the big dumper, a very popular player and his teammate. I'm going to translate this for Zaslow when it's done, but it's legitimately shocking. When I heard this said of a teammate, I couldn't believe that it sounded so nice at the beginning when he's like, well, his family, his parents are really nice. But then he really tells the big dumper to go bleep himself. Listen to this. Cuban, so I'm going to say.

That's what you have to say, the best of, to go to go to get to the red, in English. I'll say in English. The good decision that he said,

that's just me to get in the cull. I'm going. So he starts with, thank God for his parents. They're very well educated. They met me in the hotel lobby the other day. They told me how proud they were

of me. part was nice, but I'd like to do Refron del Dia with Tony here on La Casa del Pinga, which, first of all, he told him to take his good to see you and shove it up his ass. That's not nice.

This is a teammate of his. This is just legitimately crazy to hear, and let's play Refran del Dia with Tony here so you can hear where it is that Randy sent his teammate. Wow. Randy.

It's the first time that I've ever heard this phrase be uttered in a press conference or in some sort of like media availability, right? Even if it was on a phone. About his teammate. About his teammate. I think it was in jest though, Dan. I will, I will, you know, give that to Randy. I think it was in jest. But he told the big dumper, Kyle Raleigh, to bette by Casa La Pinga, which means basically you can go to the house of the dick.

That's what I thought it meant. That's exactly what it means. So it means a couple of different things, even though you're saying, betta la Casa La Pinga. That could be go to a very far away house of the dick Because it may be very, very far Or just go to the house of dick Because, you know, come on You know about that house of dick?

Jeremy, can you give me some context here? Was he fooling around? Was he just playing because they... I don't know, Jim. Smiling, Jim. I, look, he was smiling, but he was clearly frustrated Because the context for this is

Randy or Rosarana goes up to bat and goes to shake Cal Raleigh's hand. Randy or Rosarana. playing on the Mexican team, Cal Raleigh the catcher for USA. So he goes and sticks out his hand to shake his fellow Seattle Mariners' teammates' hand and rally from underneath the mask

just goes, good to see you, and won't shake his hand. And this is two world baseball classics in a row where this has happened with Team USA for Randy Orozorana because he tried to stick out a fist bump for Will Smith, the catcher of Team USA last time. Just look, these guys all playing the same league together. He's trying to be the good guy.

Hey, what's up? especially now with Cal Raleigh, his teammate, expecting, like, look, it's one thing I can understand Will Smith going, hey man, we've played against each other in the World Series when I was on the Dodgers and you were on the race. They seem to them. It's got a point. House a dick. But the thing that happens here is that it seems like something that should just be an easy

exchange, even just give them like, you know, the glove to whatever. Instead, afterward, again, I've never heard someone speak like this about anything. anybody, let alone a teammate after a game. Oh, I've heard a lot of people in Spanish speak this way about others. Well, on the record, Dan. You hear this at the clubhouse. Walk through West 32. I wasn't doing players.

I've just heard all of that a lot in my life. I've never heard it publicly one teammate to another. Casa Lepinga is insane. Like, I've never heard that in all the Cuban, in all the, in everything. Nobody's ever said that before. Can you guys tell me whether or not you think this explanation, works for you. Enrique Rojas of ESPN says that catchers have been afraid to shake batter's hands for fear they might get pintar on the ball. They can get ejected from the game if that

happens. That's the explanation because it's happened a couple of times now where the catcher is trying to go fist bump with somebody. Yeah, fist bump. Like, I get anything on here. Give him a fist bump or the glove even. Just like, hey, here. But hold on a second. So we've got we've got two different things here and lost in translation, we should be the show in America that can help Seattle and everyone else navigate whether this should be a giant controversy or just a little joke between friends. It's a play on for me. When I saw the quotes in black and wine, I'm like, oh man, this is, you know, this is a spicy meatball who make a de salad. Who make it the salad? I think like Randy or Rosaryne, he'd almost have to.

be, like he knows that if he's being serious, he is starting a major, major thing. And I have to believe that he's smarter than that, that he wouldn't, even if he was serious, that he wouldn't be trying to start a major thing with his teammate. So I think either he's really angered them or they're very close. I don't think there's in between. I don't think anybody's really close to Randy Rosarena. Like, he's a strange guy. He has a reputation inside of baseball.

I'm actually shocked he knows Cal is his teammate. Can we please check in with anybody in Seattle who can explain to us? Because we should be the show that is more qualified to analyze. Is it a joke or is it a giant controversy? Because these are, whether you think they're baseball stars or not, these are two baseball stars? No, no, no, no, exclamation point. They're baseball stars.

Cal, Big Dumber was a phenomenon. That's not the one that made me put the stars with a question. You've been talking about Randy for years. No, I loved him with the raise. He was less good with Seattle. I thought he was going to help put Seattle over the top. I just don't think, even though, look, he's one of my favorite Cuban baseball players ever, a free swinger. I went three years, never figuring out how anyone ever got him out.

Like, I love him, and he's a very good player. I don't think he might necessarily qualify as a star even in baseball. Agreed. Like, there's bigger names and bigger stars, and I think, just on the Dominican team, I can name five guys that are kind of bigger than Randy. But the funny thing is, a lot of people are looking at this being like, okay, wait a second. This guy who's Cuban, who's playing for the Mexican team, is trying to salute the guy who's on the USA team, who's also on his team in real life.

It's like just a lot of peg points of like he can't play on the Cuban national team because he defected and he can't go back. I think he defected through Mexico. That is why he's playing for Mexico. The rules are lax. Well, I want to talk a little bit about the World Baseball Classic. Nolan Arenado is Dominican now. And one of the things... Puerto Rican, that's a fine.

I was going to say, I didn't see him out there at BP. That is a fine. You didn't catch a bad. Initially, right, everybody. Pay the fine. That is absolutely a fine, and you have to pay the fine, and we're being more diligent about making sure that we pay the fines because the fine bucket now has sponsorship.

Yes, the fine bucket is presented by Money Lion. Download the Money Lion app, Or visit money lion.com to learn more MoneyLyline. Make money easy. What's that? Five bucks. That is a $2 fine. Okay. You owe $2. I get that QR.

I want to take you guys briefly, though, through a conversation about how sports get globalized in a way that has happened that is really cool. We have seen in basketball the way that the NBA reached out to the rest of the world. and in doing so, Yanosanta Tocumpo and Yokic and Luca have become legitimate stars, Wembe, because the sport has gone global. I'm actually old enough to remember when the United States exported baseball to Japan and played exhibitions in Japan and how Japan used to get its ass kicked in these games because they were in the formative years of, developing baseball. And culturally, this one's interesting to me, right? There are no Japanese

basketball stars. There are no Japanese football stars. I don't know if there are many or any Japanese hockey stars. But Japan has the greatest baseball player who has ever existed because over the last 35 years, the sport has dominated that culture. The body types, right, aren't made for basketball and football, but maybe if the sport had been there for 35 years, a Shohay Otani somewhere would appear in Japan and make it so that those sports would be the ones. Japan's pretty good at soccer, okay? But generally speaking, the sports that require the giant physicality, give me all the Japanese football players that there are. But baseball, they've got the best baseball player who has ever existed and Japan can now beat us in baseball. I've seen

evolutions as, and it's a crazy evolution to see, to watch Japan not be any good at baseball, to watch the United States go over to Japan, play against Japan in early exhibitions, and Japan get trounced again and again and again. And over the last 35 years, they've caught up. Like, they've made it just like internationally. The world has caught up to us in basketball once we exported the sport. Japan has absolutely caught up. Is Japan favored to win?

the World Series as they did, the World Baseball Classic as they did when Shohei Otani was both pitching and hitting home runs. The U.S. was favored and I think DR might have even been second, but I'm going to look now at the ads on draft kings. Japan is plus 360. They're in third place right now for World Baseball Classic.

USA is minus 105 and DR is plus 340. There's something about college hoops this time of year where you tell yourself you're just going to casually watch one game. And suddenly, your entire night is gone. That happened to me the other night. I was planning to stay home and keep a game on in the background, maybe pretend I wasn't checking scores every five minutes. Then a text comes in.

We've got multiple screens set up. That's how they get you. So I said, yeah, I grabbed a pack of Miller light on the way. A little while later, nobody's casually watching anything. Somebody's yelling because their bracket is already cooked. Somebody else suddenly cares deeply about a school they hadn't thought about in 10 years. And a game that looked over is somehow tied late. You take a sip, you look around, and realize, yeah,

This was absolutely the right move. That's why I reached for a Miller Light. It's clean, refreshing, easy to drink, brew for taste with simple ingredients, the original light beer since 1975, and still hit indifferent. Cheers to legendary moments with Miller Light. Great taste, 96 calories.

Don Lebertard. Come with the frog here live from Meta-Media Studios here in Miami. Stugats. The Germans are advancing on France in World War II. This is the Dan Leibatar. show with the Stugats. It is a little bit crazy to think of how it is if you're old enough to watch just how the sport evolved because of the concentration culturally of the country on that sport where

anyone who wants to play sports culturally. Baseball is what it is you're going to try and chase because Ichiro and now Otani are your groundbreakers and your pioneers that made American baseball not the best baseball necessarily anymore because you can say flatly, right? No one here listening to this disputes that Shohei Otani is the best baseball player to ever exist given that he's kind of Barry Bonds but also pitches. Like there's no dispute on this, correct? Absolutely not.

And the shame for Aaron Judge is he might be the greatest right-handed hitter I've ever seen. He might be genuinely having the greatest peak of any hitter. ever. And yet, he won't go down as the greatest player of his generation because Shohei Otani exists. How long has Shohei been in the majors now? What, six years maybe? Longer than that. I'll look now. Because the point that I'm trying to get at is that's never happened before, right? Where you have a player who's been in the league for that short amount of time and we're just giving the consensus greatest ever? Well, what's never existed as well is somebody who hits like that and also throws 100 miles an hour.

Also eight years. Eight years. And he'll be doing it for longer. What do you guys feel in general about the World Baseball Classic? Because I heard the blasphemy that Jeremy had where he was saying that it's better than March Madness. When we've said March Madness is the greatest thing just because it's concentrated uniforms running up and down and your gambling money is running up and down on a Thursday morning, you're

watching. The ACC tournament starts today, correct? That's correct, Dan. I love conference tournament time. We got a banger in the Big 12 with their glass court. Did you see this? I did not. Yeah, they're basically playing on an LED screen in the Big 12.

I don't believe you. Arizona State versus Baylor at 1230. I think college basketball is having a tremendous year. John Shire won an ACC coach of the year. I guess he won it because he had to overcome the loss of Jay Lucas. I don't know what we're doing there. Punch. Yeah, and the Phantom Punch. Jim Beheim was giving Jay Lucas the ACC coach of the year.

Jim Beehime was raving about Jay Lucas. Yeah, Jay Lucas deserves it. I mean, yeah, I understand he lost the number one draft pick, and he had to overcome that adversity in getting possibly the number two overall draft pick the following year. It's Duke. What are we doing? Jay Lucas deserves it. Maybe he won national coach of the year and losing in the ACC.

That's a weird ACC thing that they got going on with their teams. But it's incredible. And I don't want to knock the WBC. I am trying desperately to get into it. I like the WBC because the atmosphere translates. But get out of here with hype in this tournament up just yet. All you got is a crowd. Because these games are garbage.

Garbage baseball games. There's been like one good one. The montage we just showed showed a bunch of game-winning home runs where there were walk-offs and people celebrating at home play. You would loop the same one over and over again. 90% of the day. Did you just did? Oh, did you just make all Latin people the same? Oh!

See ya. You loop the same one. I can't believe he's been racist. Two days in a row. It's not good. I don't need to see some of these nations try to play like God bless him. Chechia, the heart, great middle reliever coming out of the pen. I don't need to see

get out of here. Thank you. Roy, control your room. Get him out of here with his accidental racism. Not after accidental racism. Oh, I'm not going to the penalty. Second time. It was one home run. You got out of here. You got to get out of here.

Are you telling me there were two good baseball games in this thing? Of course. I challenge you. There weren't two good baseball games. You're not. You got to get out of it. We don't have challenges to the bill. I did.

You got a good. Hey, put on FS1. Israel's losing by 16. Out of here. He was right about that. I was at the DR Israel game and it got ugly quick. Come on. What did you expect?

No one needs to Steve. He's hit a grand slam right to my section, though. Yeah, what did you expect? Come on. Hold on. What does almost caught the ball mean? Six rows down. If I wanted to go get it, I could have gotten it.

But the problem is, I was, you know how when you're in left field where you see, like, where the bar is on top? And then you have that little section in left field. There's, like, the part there with like the band sits. Jeremy would know. The band sits up there. I was right there on that ledge where the, where the handicap, you know, you go with the wheelchairs. So I was there. I don't think we're saying any attack anymore.

He did get scared. I was not disabled list. You know what? No, injured this. You know what? I'm sorry. Oh, no. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry you do this. Minor penalty, two minutes, rambling. Rambling. It should be worse. It should be worth. I don't have here. I don't have here. Use the wrong word in 2026.

What's the right one? Well, it's not, it's not handicapped anymore. And I'm a snowflake. I almost caught it though. If I wanted to, it would have gotten it. Get out of here. Accessible? I don't think that, I don't think that.

I don't. think we're using that as the word anymore. I want to get a little bit caught up here on some of the football moves because I just saw to Zaz's point earlier in the show about some names that are moving around, getting giant dollar amounts that he does not recognize. Get up just put on the screen all of the tens of millions of dollars the Raiders have spent to try and fix everything on the first day of free agency, and I don't think that ever works as. I really don't think.

The Patriots for 20 years always sat out the first day of free agency because it was only the losers who were doing what the Raiders are doing. But the Raiders went in big yesterday, signing a whole bunch of guys when they don't have a quarterback at the moment, although people think they're going to take Fernando Mendoza, and they are in a world of hurt. I want to play with the group here a game of big signing or not a big signing. And all of you were making fun of Mike Evans.

And I'm remiss in not making more fun of Tony from last week because he had a top five list of top five low-key free agent signings. And Mike Evans was on it. And Kenneth Walker, the Super Bowl MVP, was on it. Those can't be low-key. Mike Evans has a thousand yards receiving. We thought he was done last year. But he's got a thousand-yard receivings in every season of his career.

And that's why I called it low-key. But Kenneth Walker was just a Super Bowl MVP. How is that? How can that be low-key? How is that low-key? Because if they really cared about Kenneth Walker, they would have re-sign him. They didn't care. Now he goes to the Chiefs.

It was a low-key signing because how do you let the MVP of the Super Bowl walk. Roy, can we put on FS2? Great Britain just cut it to eight. I can't believe. I can't believe you're dismissing what Czech electrician Andre Satoria did today. Four and two-third scoreless innings against Japan. The guy is an electrician. He's smaller than me. His fastball barely breaks 80 miles an hour. And last time around, he struck out Shohei Otani. That's the coolest shit in the world. He was throwing slop. It's not. It's not. I just told you. I told you. They're playing basketball on an LED screen today at 1230.

I reclaim my time. I reclaim my time. This is really cool to get to watch. It is way better than watching a 16 seed lose by 70. Before we get to this big signing or not a big signing, because I do want to get people caught up on this. I wanted to see if you guys had any opinions on this, because you know I'm interested in the rise of the information.

broker in the NFL, the Schefters, the Ian Rappaport, the Jay Glazers. I'm fascinated by it because of what a mental health challenge it is to the robots who have to do this and have their life both get more lucrative but crazy because they don't have any time to themselves. They have to follow everything. But I don't know how the audience at large feels about Mike Florio. He seems to suffer some of what I suffer from, which is you can be right, but you make your point so obnoxiously that nobody likes you anyway, even if you're right. And so Florio, I think, does a really great job as not just a hustler, but an information man who's willing to also call out other information people. Is that affliction airborne?

It's not contagious, although you seem to have gotten some of it. Yeah. You seem to have gotten some of it in this studio. Yeah. We do have some people. I've been right about the heat for four years. No, I have. I was right by the Panthers. All they had to do was put us in the CFP and I was right.

Roy, you're not the person here who is afflicted with this. This has not been a... You seem to be immune to this particular contagion. Yeah, because I keep it quiet. Yeah, yes. Where are my gloves? Come on, heat. heat any day now.

Yes. You know, I'm a married man. I don't cheat on my wife despite that gratuitous line in back in my day. Stugats. I wish you were here, my wife. I really miss her. No, I don't. That's the thing about being married.

You know, you're not allowed to say, I don't miss my wife. I've been gone two days. I haven't been gone long enough to miss my wife. I'm sorry. I call her. You just said you do miss her for 30 seconds. You know, what am I? Hello, all right.

All right, we'll see you. All right. And then, you know, I'm going to see her in two days. I was jumping, Charlie. Good. This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats. The thing that I wanted to get to with you guys is there was a guy at the draft, last named Tate, who ran a 40 time that Schefter immediately came out and said, well, that 40 time wasn't

right. He's faster than that. And he's a Drew Rosenhouse client. And Florio immediately came out and called out Schefter on it saying, you're just doing an agent's work for him there. You're not passing information. When are these times wrong? When are the, they're at the scouting combine.

They're doing precision timing. You're taking the word of Drew Rosenhouse, but not saying that it's coming from Drew Rosenhouse. You're reporting his fact that that guy might be faster than we think he is. What did you take or what do you make of the fact that the information, and we've known this about Schefter for a while, right? He had that giant controversy where he was sending a Washington Commander's executive, basically something he'd written to get it edited by that Washington Command, commanders GM, what do you make of this as?

Well, you're also leaving out the part where then Floreo posted screen grabs of text messages from other people who were at the combine and they were timing the players. And they all had, you know, the time or extremely close to the time that Floreo was saying. And he posted them all there. So it feels like it's what you said, you know, that. that the agent, in this case, Drew Rosen. Well, I love that Florio does this, that he's willing to do it. Not many people are, but I wonder how the audience at large, Schaefter's a giant.

Shefter in this business is the person. And the sausage is made, though, in a way that's dirty. Like, that transaction to me is not merely not journalism. It's not merely a conflict of interest. It's wrong. But what's the repercussions? There don't seem to be any, but it's at least in part because nobody cares. Like, it's not because it's not wrong.

It's because nobody cares about the wrong. They want their information from the information guy, and they don't care how the information guy gets the information. And while I'm wagging a finger at it and scolding and being right in the wrong tone so everyone gets mad at me for talking about it, it makes me no less right to say, that ain't right. Maybe this doesn't sound right, but shouldn't you understand that that's part of the deal? That's how Adam Schaefter becomes the gold standard in NFL reporting? When did it become part of the deal? I'm not supposed to do interpretations on the truth when it's journalists giving it to me. They're supposed to be giving me objective facts.

I mean, there are journalism aspects to what it is that he does, but I think he's a personality, first and foremost. Oh, but I don't think that that's how, I mean, he came up in news. newspaper writing. Look, this is the golden age of ESPN, is trafficking in the credibility of newspapers to make themselves. I've talked about all of this before, but the short part of the story is ESPN had no moral obligation to become a journalism company. They decided to do so because they thought it would be good for business to get into the journalism business. They've since largely gotten out of it, even though they just hired a bunch of Washington Post reporters, because journalists are now more available because the media is either collapsing or collapsed.

Well, you know who else came up in newspapers? Stephen A. Smith. Exactly. Yeah, but Stephen A. Smith is now widely viewed as an entertainer who he himself considers himself a journalist. But I think people do understand that what he's doing on first take, that's not journalism, no matter how much he tries to apply some journalism standards to it. First word in ESPN is always entertainment. minute. There's no J in there. I get you, but I think even this

little gambit is still subjective. Like, he could be faster. Like, he could be. Yeah, but he's taken, but what's happening there, though, is you're taking Drew Rosenhaus's biased information. You're presenting it as your own, and it's not impartial information, and also not likely to be accurate. Not likely to be accurate. Carnal tape does seem faster to me. I was surprised. I've watched him plenty.

You know what? I'm confirming Adam Schaefter's report. Wow. Tate is faster. You happen to know? That's not a happen to know. See, he doesn't play with the happen to know because he's playing the line between journalist and entertainer.

And when he does happen to know. You know what I'm a J. Yes, you do. Journalism. So what's the game? Big signing or not a big signing? I think it's actually big move or not a big move. Because there are trades.

You've got to be able to hedge your bets for that. Okay. So do you want to throw some here? his way? Do you guys have? I don't know. So the biggest move so far, we were talking about Malik Willis here locally, and you mentioned Kenneth Walker to the Chiefs. I think Mike Evans is not a low-key signing. I think if you can get Mike Evans, as San Francisco has gotten Mike Evans, that's a big signing. But the biggest one so far is blank before we get to big move or not a big move. The one so far that you guys say is the biggest?

Malik Willis. That's the biggest? Yeah. Yeah. Max Crosby. That was a trade. Well, I mean, what do you do? It's a move.

It's a move. You said it's a move. You said it's a move. Like I said, that counts because this is big move or not a big move. Excellent job, Mike. They corrected Zaz, and he walked back his position. What the Rams are doing is also interesting with McDuffie and their biggest weakness the second half of the season. They were a play away was their defensive backplay.

But what do you have for us, Tony, that you're going to throw Zaz's way? Former Miami Dolphin, Jalim Phillips, moving from Philadelphia to the Carolina Panthers, signing a four-year $120 million deal, 80 of it guaranteed. Zazz. Yeah, that's a big move. That's a big move. Carolina, I think Bryce Young is on the ascension. I like what I saw from him last year.

Can't always be a star in your first year. Carolina made the playoffs last year. Go and get a really good player. You know, I've got to stay healthy, of course. We can say about anyone. I go big move. Good for Jalen Phillips, incidentally, because that's a guy you root for. Yeah, it's a guy that almost medically retired in college.

Yeah. That guy's body has been through it for him to get a big contract to be traded to Philadelphia, to be successful in Philadelphia, and to be someone who's a successful edge rusher, even though in Miami that last year, he was the king of almost. Like, he had so many plays where he almost made the play. The new whiffer. Like, who'd your dad called the Whiff? Well, to give people the entire context of the conversation because it's a good one, my father on television for several years would simply refer to Jean-Carlose Stanton as the whiffer.

And then at an apartment in Miami Beach, an apartment complex, we get on to an elevator with John Carlos Stanton and Ricky Nalasco, a giant Jean-Carlos Stanton. And I'm like, Dad, don't. And my father's like, what? he's a whiffer. Just says it right in front of him in a really confined space. What does Stanton do? He just stared at us as I was mortified. Big guy, huh?

Yeah, but what's he going to do? My father's a 75-year-old man. He's going to bury him in the elevator. But he actually smiled. Actually, Jean-Carlos, he knows he's a whiffer. Yeah, he knows he struck out 200 times. Zaz. Second biggest contract doled out over the weekend.

Alec Pierce, staying with the Colts, four years, $114 million. Big move? Not a big move. I'm going not a big move. Because essentially this move costs them Michael Pittman, right? I don't know. I think I'd rather keep Michael Pittman at the number that he was making

as opposed to Alec Pierce and sign him to that. I don't know. Does Alex Pierce scream to you like big time number one wide receiver? Greg Cody last week, this was shocking to me, had never heard of him somehow. He also called him Alex. I've never heard of Alex Pierce. Is that the fewest catches ever to get to 1,000 yards?

I also have to tell people, my apologies, not telling you earlier than this. Greg Cody is on vacation somewhere. So he was scheduled to be with us today, but I got in here today and he was not here. And his son's not here. And again, the longtime NFL writer for the Miami Herald did not know who Alec Pierce was last time he was in here. He was part of my low-key signings, too. Did you see he posted a video from out on a beach yesterday, live reaction? It was really important for him to inform everybody from that beach, how right he was about both things.

He predicted they'd get rid of Tua, and he predicted they'd get Malik Willis. Fuentes, can you do me the favor of getting that video so we have the spirit and the feel of Greg Cody here on a Greg Cody Tuesday? Rare statistical tie in the NFL, Alec Pierce tied to Sean Jackson for few his catches to get to a thousand yards. Did Greg give you that virus that we were talking about? about before, Dan? No, people love Greg Cody. Greg Cody's not afflicted with his message getting contaminated by how obnoxious he is. He's just rarely right.

True, yeah. Zaz, New York Giants, wide receiver Wondale Robinson, now the number one target for Cam Ward over in Tennessee. Wondell Robinson, four for 70. Big move, not a big move. I'm going big move. You know, if you draft Cam Ward number one overall, you got to give him a little bit of help, even if it means you overpay. Free agency, you inherently overpay every time.

but I like it. It's been move. Travis E.N. goes from Jacksonville to New Orleans. Does that spell problem for Alvin Kamara? ETN, four years, 52 million. Yeah, I like it. I think E.T.N. is a really good player. I think it's a good move. I think it's a big move for New Orleans. I like it. K. Walker 3. Super Bowl MVP, low-key, a lot we're saying.

Now the Chiefs get their number one guy. How do you feel about that? Yeah, I'm going big move there. Running back's really good history with Andy Reed in Kansas City. and I especially like it because there was thought that maybe Kansas City would wind up trying to acquire in the draft Jeremiah Love. But I would rather have Kenneth Walker and draft another player. You think the Super Bowl MVP to the team of a generation is a big move, do you? Hey, I only have two choices. It wasn't like, hey, Zaslow, tell us what you think is the biggest move. And then I said Kenneth Walker.

I was asked, is Kenneth Walker a big move or is it not a big move? And obviously the answer is big move. Yeah, you like that move. So I don't know what you're talking about or trying to accomplish you, Mike. I just asked you seconds ago before we started playing big move or not a big move. What was the biggest move? And you said Malik Willis, which is Asin. Well, I got confused for a second.

What's a move and what's a signing? Another guy on the move from Jacksonville heading over to Carolina, Devin Lloyd, three years 45 Millie. I'm going not a big move, mainly because I don't know that fool. Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, but that sort of disqualifies. I appreciate the honesty. You know what? I don't, actually.

Wow. I don't think that I don't appreciate it. I don't appreciate the ignorance in the honesty. Did you not watch that Monday night football game against the Chiefs? He was all over the field. I'm doing afternoon drive on ESPN, by the way. And you're going to know all about him by that. Is it with Harry Douglas?

To Freddie. Oh, it's Freddie Coleman. All right. Oh, G. Yeah, let's go. Do you have anything else here, Tony? One big move that happened to, too. Yep, uh-huh.

You don't get to decide whether it's a big move. Well, I'm telling you it's a big move. You don't get to decide that. He's deciding that. He's deciding that. Joining to Otunga Viloa in Atlanta, the one and only one year, 3.25 Milly Austin Hooper moves over to Atlanta to be their number two tight end. Big moon, not a big move.

Not a big move. What do you know? No nothing. Kyle Pitts is the guy there, who cares about number two tight end? He heard a blocking tight end? Full circle moment for Austin Hooper, who is somehow, I think, only 31 years old. You've been talking about Austin Hooper for a while. The Patriots' offense was largely Hunter Henry giant runs and occasional passes to Stefan

Diggs. Were any of you surprised that Stefan Diggs was let go after just one year with England? Not at all. No. No, you get one good year and it's like, all right, it's a powder keg. Let's call it a day. Let's get to that video, please, of Greg Cody. on vacation, being right and feeling the need from a beach somewhere to give you his

dolphins' opinions from, I'm going to guess the Caribbean somewhere. I'm not totally sure. Where did you see this, Aslo? I think it was posted online. Okay. And it was just, it felt to you the same. It felt like he was just going to be right. He wanted to make sure that everyone knew that he was right.

He's got to let you know that if Greg Cody is going to be right, See, he's on vacation. He's likely, you know, he's got a few drinks in him. He's not just going to say, hey, let me do work, all right. That's not a strong suit. But if he finds out that he was right about things, hey, hey, hey, Christopher, fire up the iPhone here. I got something to say. So wait a minute.

You don't think he's not filming himself in the video that we are attempting to locate now. There's a cameraman. And you're assuming that Chris is on vacation with him. The Codies tend to take cruises together. I am confirming reports, but it sounds like he's reporting from the Virgin Islands, or at least they were virgin before he got there. So not a house of dick. No, but they're in two separate vacations, Dan. So Chris was somewhere else.

Greg, somewhere else. Oh, they're not together? No, two different Caribbean vacations. But the dolphins got a quarterback, and that's a bad time for the legendary Miami Herald columnist to not have a microphone, to not have an ability to get two people. He believes that everyone wants to hear his informed opinion. Well, I think vacation the first day of NFL free agency, that's bad timing. To be fair, nobody had any idea that NFL free agency was March 9th. We had no clue to, you know, to be fair to Greg.

It is strange that Greg would decide to go on a quick vacation the day that NFL free agency starts at noon, when the dolphins are in almost total upheaval and changing the entirety of their friends. This is next scheduled vacation NFL draft? Probably. The Super Bowl? You think he'll just take off on the Super Bowl? Stop throwing stones, Devin Lloyd. All right.

Guys are a pro-bowler. You should know better. The Cody's love a cruise. They are trashy. And let's see if you can tell from his hair here whether Greg Cody is trashy. Okay. So, as I'm recording this, on a beach in Tortola,

The Dolphins have cut to a Tungapaloa as expected and signed Malik Willis, which I predicted they would and advocated that they do. And so congratulations Dolphins for following my advice. But here I am, not doing my job. Basically just drinking a rum drink on a beach in Tortola, which, by the way, Tortola to me, always sounded like a pasta, a type of pasta or the actor. you know, the famous American actor, John Tortola. But instead, it turns out it's the biggest island in the British Virgin Islands. And we're here on the first stop of our crew. Had a great time so far.

A lot of drinking, a lot of partying. Won some money in the casino, which is always a bonus. Did well in the slots. Did well at roulette. Love the big wheel, the big clicking wheel. And took a master. class and how to make a tenderloin. Had a bourbon tasting.
