Speaker 9 This is the Dan Labatar Show with the Stu Gats Podcast.

Speaker 11 Yesterday, I advertised a Jeremy Tashay live stream today in honor of the baseball playoffs. He has run off with an older woman and decided he's not going to do that.

Speaker 11 So we will get to his explanation in a second before we cover the baseball playoffs.

Speaker 11 I am told that Mike Ryan is going to give baseball a shot today, that Jonathan Zaszlo is going to declare whether something is a big game or not a big game today, even though I thought the playoffs were always big games, but Jonathan Zaszlo

Speaker 11 is the judge of these things. And we've got Tony, who's out in the field, about to give us a top five on football.
I wanted to give you guys a couple of statistics here.

Speaker 11 The two touchdowns Darren Waller scored in 34 minutes last night with the Dolphins represent

Speaker 11 what

Speaker 11 he did in 12 games with the Giants. 12 games with the Giants.
It took him to get the two touchdowns he had last night with the Dolphins.

Speaker 12 That was a big dub for you. I'm happy for you.
That is a big win for Dan Levittard colon ball nowhere.

Speaker 14 I was a little off in my assessment of Darren Waller going into this season and really through the first couple weeks of the season.

Speaker 14 I think it's important to point that out in case you.

Speaker 11 You were going to be gas bag of the week until Don Legreca knocked you off. I'm sorry about that.
You almost got that. Another stat, though, for you, Greg Cody.

Speaker 11 You were a little uneven today whether you were assessing that Tyreek Hill's injury was season-ending and then you made it career-ending.

Speaker 15 I hope I'm wrong.

Speaker 12 By the end of the Rossini interview, I believe you killed Tyreek Hill. We've come quite a way.

Speaker 17 Right.

Speaker 18 I believe that it could be career-ending, and I sure hope.

Speaker 13 But local hour, you said it could be season-ending.

Speaker 16 Possibly season-ending. So there's quite a variance there.

Speaker 12 Also, to clean something up, there are three teams that allow a higher rushing average per attempt to their opponents.

Speaker 16 It's Bears, Ravens, and Giants.

Speaker 21 Is that it? No.

Speaker 13 Bills,

Speaker 23 Bears, and Giants.

Speaker 1 Keep an eye on that Bills defense. Stinky bad.

Speaker 15 They've been playing bad teams. I think they're tough.

Speaker 11 Ed Oliver has been out. That changes things.
It really does. Their pass rush is good.
I understand why it is people think that they haven't beaten anybody.

Speaker 11 I should also mention none of Tyreek Hill's $36 million next year is guaranteed. So that's one of the reasons that he'll probably not be around.

Speaker 21 Oh, his Dolphin career feels through.

Speaker 11 And it's another thing beyond the humanity of it and seeing a leg, you know, twisted that way. It's another reason.
It's disastrous. He did have trade value.
And

Speaker 11 now he no longer has trade value.

Speaker 1 And he's a human, so it's horrible to see a human being go through that pain.

Speaker 20 That's what I said.

Speaker 16 You did say that on the front end, but you were just positively reinforced.

Speaker 1 Ring of honor for Tyree Kill?

Speaker 25 Where?

Speaker 10 Kansas City, maybe.

Speaker 11 Before we get to baseball, however, and before we get to the Clippers, because they started talking yesterday and they shouldn't have,

Speaker 11 let's go out to Tony out in the field. I don't know where it is that Tony is.
Where is Tony as we get to his top five? I have not seen him. I've not been told anything here.

Speaker 11 I've been told that it's top five in the field and they've concealed him from me, but they've said that he's sweating a great deal because it's hot out there, even though the mornings have been nice in South Florida the last week.

Speaker 13 Nice little breeze.

Speaker 11 there has been a breeze because there are so all it took was a couple of hurricanes forming right off the coast in order to get us a little bit of breeze tony where are you joining us from

Speaker 27 Welcome Dan to Doral.

Speaker 28 I know this is the first time you've probably ever been to Doral electronically, but we were at Doral Legacy Park.

Speaker 28 A beautiful day out today and we're going to be trying to kick some field goals in between the top five. So I'm very excited.

Speaker 31 This is a bit of a physical act.

Speaker 28 So we'll see. I actually lost one of the balls, kicked it over the net over there, so we have to actually go find that one.
Or maybe I can expense it.

Speaker 11 You let me know. How many field goals are you going to kick? After every one, you're going to, how many kicks? How many field goals are you going to attempt?

Speaker 28 We started with five because I had the top five, one kick for every every bullet point.

Speaker 33 I lost one, so now we have four.

Speaker 27 So we got four kicks.

Speaker 1 This Tony top five is presented by Smirnoff, the official vodka sponsor of the National Football League. Smirnoff, please drink responsibly.

Speaker 1 The Smirnoff Company, New York, New York, 40% alcohol by volume.

Speaker 11 Why are you laughing, Greg? What's it? Because he's lost one of the footballs? Yeah.

Speaker 34 Yeah, I am. Also, it doesn't look like he's drawing a 50-yard field goal like Greg Cody.

Speaker 11 How long of a field goal are you trying, Tony?

Speaker 33 Dan, right now I'm at 40 yards.

Speaker 28 We tried it from 35 and I kicked it over the net.

Speaker 36 So I'm at 40 right now.

Speaker 31 If you want, we can move back.

Speaker 28 At the last one, we can try a 50-yarder.

Speaker 27 But right now, we're at 40. We're comfortable with 40.

Speaker 3 You're not getting help from Mother Nature.

Speaker 12 That looks windy out there.

Speaker 32 It's a bit of a win. I'm going to have to hit it with a bit of a draw.

Speaker 28 So that's what I'm practicing on right now before you guys, while you guys were talking to Darren Waller.

Speaker 26 Great interview, by the way.

Speaker 11 Let's have a bet here. How many, what's the over-under on field goals made? Billy, you're always a positive supporter of all things.

Speaker 1 Tony, we can nail them all. I think five, six out of five, if that's even possible.

Speaker 11 Greg, what would be your reception?

Speaker 4 We only have four balls, though.

Speaker 11 What are we betting? Over-under, he's going to kick four of them. Do you think he's going to make what's the over-under on the bet?

Speaker 4 Half?

Speaker 34 Over-under is 1.5.

Speaker 1 uh i think he's going to make two okay i mean some would say that he's kicking off a t and that's not exactly kicking field goals you need someone to hold it that's more of a kickoff some would say a t is an advantage that feels a little bit negative what you're doing there i didn't say it some would say that some would say he's a yeah maybe you who doesn't have a holder what were your thoughts on priests earlier do we have olis here tony

Speaker 31 We've got two OLIs, Dan.

Speaker 28 We'll run through them real quick to get to the top five.

Speaker 29 Number one, OLI,

Speaker 28 don't be fooled by the mirage of the Chiefs offense. I'm going to lay that seed in the ground right now.

Speaker 27 Do not be fooled by the mirage.

Speaker 28 Okay, I think they took advantage of a bad Ravens defense. I don't know if we're going to see that output offensively throughout the season for the Chiefs.

Speaker 28 Maybe when Rasheed Rice comes back, we'll see a little bit better. I think this is a bit of a mirage, though, Dan.

Speaker 15 It's more than that.

Speaker 11 That's the first time since the middle of 2023 that he's thrown four touchdowns in a game when we all expected him every game to throw four touchdowns in a game.

Speaker 11 That's how he got past Marino at such a young age.

Speaker 22 It is a mirage.

Speaker 4 Go ahead. What do you got?

Speaker 22 What's your other OLI?

Speaker 28 All right, my last OLI here. I'm going to toss to a video.
J.K. Dobbins has become my new favorite player in the NFL.

Speaker 27 Roll the tape.

Speaker 41 What does it mean that a Spanish singer is going to sing in a Super Bowl?

Speaker 39 It means a lot.

Speaker 39 Solo, solo escucho.

Speaker 15 Solo escucho reggaeton, y dimbo, y vachata,

Speaker 39 haci que me gusta mucho. Que bad bunny, y que bonito el bonito el bonito el conejomalo

Speaker 42 el

Speaker 24 borico el borico sieno mi gusta mucho that's awesome I mean Dan, what can you not love about J.K.

Speaker 28 Domins? Guys, guys overcome 8,000 injuries and only listens to Tregueto dembo and bachata.

Speaker 32 Hoy primo mio es el mio vamo

Speaker 11 mike, would you do me a favor, please? Rodriguez from Washington, can you give me the nationality? Because whenever I've got in the backfield

Speaker 11 a Hispanic guy, I'm always surprised by it. I need to know the guy in Washington, Rodriguez, what is his nationality? Let's start with number five, Tony.

Speaker 28 All right, number five.

Speaker 34 Hold on.

Speaker 26 Okay, wow.

Speaker 30 Okay, this is okay. This has never happened before.

Speaker 4 We've just got to be able to do it. What just happened? Beam in.

Speaker 28 Yeah, I know. So this is very important.
I just got a message. Joe Zagaki wanted me to say in the top five.

Speaker 43 Cab Scatabo plays football the right way.

Speaker 13 I mean right way.

Speaker 15 Excuse me.

Speaker 11 Why did Fuentes come into the screen to whisper a joke to you as if he's not on camera?

Speaker 28 Joe Zagaki had mentioned to Fuentes to tell it to me, so that's how that worked out.

Speaker 1 Why can't he get the ball that you lost?

Speaker 28 Because it's over the fence. You see the fence back there? About 45 yards away, Billy?

Speaker 33 I kicked it over that fence, so it's in the bushes in the house. We got to go find it.

Speaker 12 Chris Rodriguez is Puerto Rican, which to many in the audience, just to clarify, given the tweets around the halftime show, is also American.

Speaker 4 Bodico, stand up.

Speaker 21 All right, number four, Dano.

Speaker 28 Seattle is a sneaky playoff team. I like what Seattle's doing, Dan.

Speaker 12 Best defense in the league right now, according to DVOA. McDonald's a defense.

Speaker 24 They are good.

Speaker 45 Sam Darnold looking good in more ways than one.

Speaker 12 Nice body on the kid.

Speaker 43 Did we change number five?

Speaker 20 Did he do number five or did he start with number four?

Speaker 28 Number five, Dan, no, number five was Cam Scoutable plays the white. I mean, right.

Speaker 21 Okay, my bad. Fuentes now.

Speaker 22 Okay, I was trying to kick it.

Speaker 4 I got this right.

Speaker 15 I'm sorry.

Speaker 11 I got distracted by Fuentes being out there. Are you going to now try? Are you going to kick one now? You're going to try and kick this? Here we go.

Speaker 13 Yeah, I'm going to kick.

Speaker 28 Yeah, I'm going to kick this one right now. I'm going to give the mic to Fuentes, and I'm going to let it rip, okay? I can still hear you guys, so you can make fun of me.

Speaker 11 All right, let's see here. He's going to try this.
This is...

Speaker 1 He didn't do the thing where you take like three steps back and to the left.

Speaker 15 Oh, that's wide violence.

Speaker 21 It looks good.

Speaker 24 Wide variety.

Speaker 26 Short, too. Short.

Speaker 4 Yeah, that was short. It was short.
That bet.

Speaker 12 He's wearing leggings, though.

Speaker 11 How is your bet looking good?

Speaker 27 I mean, I picked two, and he's already made one.

Speaker 15 He needs to get two of the five.

Speaker 15 Yeah, but

Speaker 11 you needed him to make the first one.

Speaker 4 Short the distance right now, though. I think he's going to get one.

Speaker 1 His win, too.

Speaker 28 It's tough, guys. It's tough.
It's really easy from the start.

Speaker 11 No, it's hard. 40-yard fear goal is hard.
Greg Cody, one of the most ridiculous things ever said on the show is a 65-year-old Greg Cody saying he can make a 50-yarder. He would have that take

Speaker 30 had he not gotten hurt yeah he wasn't old at that time yeah the hips look good though fluid yeah i like your gait pal number three

Speaker 14 number three yeah what do you first of all what are you even doing here what after the after the take you had yesterday what are you even doing there what are you what are we doing about the punch after monday night football what are you what are you doing you you still believe that players should be allowed to punch other players during the game are you crazy yes the ball yes the ball i'm punch the ball But if you miss the ball and you end up punching a player, that's got to be a penalty.

Speaker 14 You can't run around punching guys.

Speaker 32 Bad take.

Speaker 28 Bad take. Number three, speaking of playoffs, the Ravens are still going to win the division, guys.

Speaker 26 Whoa.

Speaker 4 Still going to win the division.

Speaker 28 That division sucks. That division sucks.
The Steelers are not that good. I think the Ravens are going to come back.
They're still going to win the division. They're still going to make the playoffs.

Speaker 11 Roussini says, no, take off your headset and try again. Let's see if Greg Cody will say he's looking good after he misses this one, too.

Speaker 1 Tony, try the three steps back.

Speaker 13 You got to measure the left.

Speaker 1 Measure, dog. No, you're just going straight.
There we go. Come on.
There we go. Now we're talking.

Speaker 10 Yes, yes.

Speaker 47 Yes.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 He did skip a step. It seems like.
Yeah, your footing's going to be off. Counting's hard for some, some would say.

Speaker 24 Is that negative for those?

Speaker 24 Oh, man.

Speaker 16 That was all wind.

Speaker 1 That was wind.

Speaker 11 Yeah,

Speaker 11 that was far to the left.

Speaker 20 This is very hard.

Speaker 24 I was listening here, guys, as you can tell.

Speaker 26 How close were you going to go? You got to win.

Speaker 1 You kicked it over the fence. Good job, Fuentez.

Speaker 27 35 yards.

Speaker 28 So it was just five yards further up. It was just deli.

Speaker 32 Not easy.

Speaker 1 Hey, friends, it feels like everywhere that you turn these days, there's just another fee. We were talking about it on the show earlier this week.
Buy a ticket, there's a fee.

Speaker 5 Hey, it's Tony from the Dan Lebitard show, and I got to tell you something that makes me feel a lot safer with my wife and kid at home. It's simply safe.

Speaker 5 Most security systems only react after a break-in. And that's too late, if you want to be honest.
Real security stops crime before it even starts.

Speaker 5 I just watched a video that was absolutely terrifying. An arson is trying to light a family home on fire.
And you know what? SimplySafe stopped it before anybody got hurt.

Speaker 5 Their AI-powered camera spotted the threat, alerted the monitoring agent, and the intruder got confronted while still outside the house.

Speaker 5 That's what I call real security, pre-security, not post-security. I trust SimplySafe with my home, my family, and everything I care about.
No hidden fees, no long-term contracts.

Speaker 5 And they've been named one of the best home security systems by U.S. News for five years running.

Speaker 32 Hey, Jeremy, old buddy, old pal. Hey, Mike.

Speaker 37 I want to talk to you about Miller Life.

Speaker 16 You and I have bonded over these last few weeks talking about our shared love of Miller Light.

Speaker 37 That's right.

Speaker 50 A great partner of our show for practically its entire existence.

Speaker 1 It's been a partner of this show since I was 10 years old.

Speaker 36 And it's been around for 50 years, and they've been a part of our show for almost 20.

Speaker 37 We're approaching incredible partner status with Miller Light.

Speaker 1 I mean, to think that people were celebrating at my bar mitzvah with Miller Light as they were a partner of this show is pretty incredible.

Speaker 35 You're talking about the moments that are made better by making those times, those special times, Miller time. Jeremy, there's nothing like cracking open Miller Light Light with your crew.

Speaker 16 This football season, it's especially true.

Speaker 3 Whether it's a touchdown you didn't see coming or just arguing about fantasy lineups you already know you're gonna lose, Miller Light has been the taste you can depend on for 50 years, brewed for flavor with simple ingredients, rich toffy notes, that iconic golden color.

Speaker 3 And here's a kicker, Jeremy.

Speaker 23 What's that? It's just 96 calories.

Speaker 1 I still can't believe that. We say it every week.
I can't believe it.

Speaker 23 It's just 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces.

Speaker 36 It's the original light beer since 1975 and still hitting different five decades later. Miller Light.
great taste, 96 calories.

Speaker 37 Go to millerlight.com/slash Dan to find delivery options near you, or you can pick up some Miller Light pretty much anywhere.

Speaker 30 They sell beer.

Speaker 36 It's Miller time. Celebrate responsibly.

Speaker 3 Miller Brewing Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 96 calories and 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces.

Speaker 21 Don Lebatard.

Speaker 15 To us, residents.

Speaker 51 Wow. That's pretty good.

Speaker 38 You think I haven't been practicing?

Speaker 21 Stugats.

Speaker 40 Oh,

Speaker 51 I didn't realize we had a substitute complicated legacy. Brought to my headquarters.

Speaker 51 441 Powerline Road.

Speaker 4 Second down to nine.

Speaker 9 This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugats.

Speaker 13 Number two.

Speaker 14 Number two.

Speaker 28 Giants landed a bullseye with Jackson Dart.

Speaker 11 Did they? I don't think. Did they?

Speaker 29 Yeah.

Speaker 33 No, they did. They did.

Speaker 15 They did. They did.
They did.

Speaker 4 They upgraded actually.

Speaker 27 It could have been worse, Dan.

Speaker 20 They upgraded over Russell Wilson. It could have been worse, Dan.

Speaker 28 100%.

Speaker 11 100%.

Speaker 11 Let me explain to you something before you go here, Tony, about Jackson Dart, because I didn't say this about what he did during the game yesterday.

Speaker 11 I mentioned that he punched a dude with a stiff arm. He danced in the end zone on his touchdown.
He had a moment in the concussion protocol.

Speaker 11 And also on a third-down call running play that he didn't like, he started screaming on the field at dayball.

Speaker 15 That on a rookie is balls.

Speaker 11 The attitude, he's got the attitude, but they ran the ball an awful lot. I don't trust that.
I'd bet the Saints and your beloved Spencer Rattler to win his first game as a Saint this weekend.

Speaker 11 Number one, number two.

Speaker 15 What are we on? Oh, I got a kick for number two.

Speaker 32 Here we go.

Speaker 15 Yeah, I got a kick for number two. He's got a kick for number two.

Speaker 18 He's got to make this.

Speaker 1 Never three steps back, Tony, and then two to the left.

Speaker 3 He's not measuring.

Speaker 20 He's got to make both of these.

Speaker 11 Greg, your bet's not looking good. He's got to make this.
I don't think he's going to make any of these.

Speaker 44 What's the vibes thing?

Speaker 1 He thought that it'd be five. I think he's getting this.

Speaker 11 No, that's far to the left. Very short, too.
No, I don't think it's short, but he's hurting because he is an athlete.

Speaker 11 He fancies himself our best athlete, even though Chris Cody has his objections, and so do

Speaker 1 today.

Speaker 11 Yeah, look at him. He's a shit.

Speaker 1 You should have to think where he's holding his back now. Be careful.
Be careful, Tony. You don't want to.
Nelly man. You have a baby.

Speaker 14 What if he goes old school and kicks it straight on?

Speaker 1 Yeah, well, my dad tried that with the 50. It didn't work well.
Or a drop kick, like, drop it on the ground and then the old Bledsoe.

Speaker 29 Throw it.

Speaker 4 Throw it? That's a pooch punt, right?

Speaker 29 Like, I can't do that.

Speaker 15 The old Bledsoe?

Speaker 1 Yeah, he did that in a game against the Dolphins.

Speaker 4 Was it? Drew Bledsoe did?

Speaker 11 That was Floody.

Speaker 28 That was Drew Flutter. No, I think that was Doug Fluty, yeah.

Speaker 11 Yeah, you know. Okay, the Bledsoe, as I like to call it, when Floody does it.

Speaker 1 He said she said.

Speaker 22 Number one, Tony.

Speaker 28 Number one, Dan, the old dog, Matthew Stafford, still has it.

Speaker 26 That's the thing. And what I mean by it

Speaker 10 is, everybody.

Speaker 52 Balls.

Speaker 40 Balls.

Speaker 32 Still got balls.

Speaker 28 The old dog, Matthew Stafford, still getting it done, Dan. Oh, that's Tony's top five.

Speaker 4 Here we go, father. The old dogs still got got balls.

Speaker 22 Come on, Tony. Let's finish.

Speaker 11 Put it on the poll at Lebatar Show. Does the old dog still have balls? Here it is.
Come on, Tony. Make one.

Speaker 45 Rooting for you, pal.

Speaker 26 Tony, are you going to do straight on?

Speaker 19 I honestly think it's easier if Fuentes held with a finger.

Speaker 1 I think it's honestly the T, I don't think, helps him here, if I'm being honest.

Speaker 18 Yeah, it gives him elevation.

Speaker 11 It's important that you be honest about these things.

Speaker 44 Here we go.

Speaker 44 It's a beautiful day in Dorrell.

Speaker 11 Come on, make one, Tony. I could make one.

Speaker 42 Oh, boy. What about taps?

Speaker 24 What happened? That's okay, that's okay.

Speaker 26 He did like

Speaker 26 that.

Speaker 29 He did. It's okay.
What?

Speaker 29 Yeah, he's just pointing at his leg. He hurt himself.
Did you pull him? Pull something?

Speaker 17 Yeah,

Speaker 53 no!

Speaker 54 No!

Speaker 54 You can't do that! No! No! Hey! No!

Speaker 54 Switch legs!

Speaker 53 He pulled something!

Speaker 53 Don't make him do it!

Speaker 15 Don't make him do it!

Speaker 25 Cardimo's not gonna be a bad thing!

Speaker 7 Tony thought he could do that! There is no

Speaker 7 doubt, I don't know what he is doing.

Speaker 24 Don't make it.

Speaker 1 Cardamoff blow kisses.

Speaker 7 How?

Speaker 7 No. No, this can't be real.

Speaker 7 You still kick, pal.

Speaker 11 No, no, that's a human resources issue.

Speaker 7 We can't have him injure himself more. I'm already

Speaker 11 probably liable. For those of you in the audio audience, he went up to the ball and then just walked off and hurt himself and now is laying on his side on the 45-yard or 35-yard.

Speaker 1 He's pointing to the lower point of his hip.

Speaker 4 That is

Speaker 4 the best.

Speaker 11 I'm sorry, Tony.

Speaker 15 We'll check.

Speaker 12 Was that a bit?

Speaker 43 Is he trying to fool us?

Speaker 24 Okay. I think he's hurt.
I feel Jimmy.

Speaker 15 No, I think he's hurt himself something.

Speaker 22 Come on, do not.

Speaker 15 His ego's hurt.

Speaker 1 He would never back up.

Speaker 21 He's hurt, okay?

Speaker 43 I don't care if I'm hurt.

Speaker 30 I'm still kicking that ball for the audience.

Speaker 11 Yeah, I will tell you that this is a dad body situation, is what's happening here.

Speaker 16 He used to be

Speaker 11 a young man and an athlete, and it's just,

Speaker 11 he's not resting enough. He's not getting enough sleep.

Speaker 11 He's not eating correctly, and he's not the athlete that he used to be. Pathetic.

Speaker 24 Great teammate, Dan. You are.

Speaker 11 I'm sorry to say all of that. Is that positive?

Speaker 16 Yeah, he said that positively.

Speaker 16 As a matter of fact, great teammate.

Speaker 1 And I'm sure Tony's warm-up kicks were amazing.

Speaker 27 He's wearing spikes.

Speaker 1 This is pathetic. Custom spikes, it looks like, too.

Speaker 11 Those are spikes.

Speaker 37 Those are Jordan's spikes.

Speaker 15 Those are Jordan's spikes.

Speaker 11 Those are really good shoes.

Speaker 11 All right. Can you play the song that makes fun of Cody about the time that he delusionally thought he could make a 50-yard field goal and then just injured himself?

Speaker 29 I've

Speaker 29 In an 80s shirt

Speaker 29 and a 70s haircut,

Speaker 24 and on the show, he's like a knuckleball, curveball.

Speaker 55 I can hit a home run, Kershaw, Verlander.

Speaker 3 Don't matter who is throwing. I don't care.

Speaker 3 I'll hit them 400 feet in there.

Speaker 24 And then great.

Speaker 55 I can take D, Wade and Bosch. I'm the double team.

Speaker 40 Find the open man.

Speaker 29 And even if they're guarding me, I don't care.

Speaker 29 I'm draining threes from everywhere.

Speaker 51 And I can kick field gold.

Speaker 24 Field goals.

Speaker 29 Like my idol for Drevis.

Speaker 29 I'll hit from 50 yards at least.

Speaker 29 Even though I'm missing PATs, I'm good enough to place wagers. Wagers.
And win the money from Labatar.

Speaker 29 And then I'll...

Speaker 29 I think I just bought my quad.

Speaker 11 Tony's legitimately hurt. I don't think he's faking any of that.
No, no. Look, he's too proud.
He's got that Cuban machismo pride.

Speaker 1 That's why you don't go up and miss the last attempt.

Speaker 21 Yeah, you can take the last kick. No,

Speaker 11 he does. He's not a quitter.

Speaker 26 He looks great.

Speaker 1 He's still with us if you want to talk to him. Yeah.

Speaker 11 Tony, I'm worried about you.

Speaker 13 Guys.

Speaker 28 Yeah, no.

Speaker 28 On the last kick that obviously I pushed wide left, I felt a little bit of a click in my in my in my hip.

Speaker 30 And you tried to play through.

Speaker 33 It's not a big deal. You tried to play through.

Speaker 30 I did, I did.

Speaker 28 So

Speaker 28 the last one, when I marked back, I was like, all right, I'm going to have to give this one all I got, but my leg might go further than the ball kind of situation.

Speaker 28 Like my leg might rip off from the hip and like dangle off into

Speaker 28 the end zone. And

Speaker 28 as I was going for the approach, I felt the hip go, mm, I don't think so, puppy. And that's how I had to pull up.

Speaker 15 I I had to pull up, guys.

Speaker 31 The real ones say not today.

Speaker 33 I know. No, oi.

Speaker 15 The great ones do. The great ones.
They feel very positive.

Speaker 1 Yeah. No, I'm talking about the great ones.

Speaker 1 I'm just letting him know what the great ones say.

Speaker 31 That implies

Speaker 1 not a great one. No, I'm trying to motivate him.

Speaker 13 It's not that positive, man. What do you mean?

Speaker 15 I think

Speaker 11 you're going to have to do this again tomorrow. No falsehoods.

Speaker 26 I said the great ones say, I'm trying to motivate him.

Speaker 24 I don't understand what you're doing.

Speaker 24 I don't know.

Speaker 22 That was not positive. I didn't feel very positive.

Speaker 11 No, you tried to be positive today. You failed.
You're out. You got to do it again tomorrow.

Speaker 19 Tomorrow, say Zero words. That's what you get.

Speaker 38 But it's a wild Billy Wednesday. Well,

Speaker 38 that's okay. Reap what you sow.

Speaker 11 You've got to say something positive.

Speaker 13 You reap what you sow.

Speaker 11 There's consequences. You keep thinking they're not consequences to things.
You didn't say something positive there.

Speaker 19 There were three balls out of five that he decided himself to throw somebody out of the time.

Speaker 54 There we go.

Speaker 25 Just rip off the Mustang.

Speaker 53 Just let it go. Welcome back.

Speaker 24 Just rip it off.

Speaker 46 Go kick the ball. Get up and kick the ball.
What are you doing? Or I have Fledges Fuentes kick the ball. Why do you have 15 people out there? Someone kick the ball.
We were promised five kicks.

Speaker 13 Someone kick a ball. I knew you could.

Speaker 25 Kick a ball. I'm proud.

Speaker 26 Someone put the ball down and kick the ball.

Speaker 29 Man up. Who's there?

Speaker 46 Or woman up.

Speaker 46 Whoever's out there.

Speaker 26 Is Rose out there?

Speaker 46 Rose, kick a ball. We need a payoff, pal.

Speaker 36 Someone. Where's Danny?

Speaker 46 Kick a ball.

Speaker 11 All right. Fuentes, you want to give it a try?

Speaker 30 Fuentes going to kick the ball.

Speaker 26 He's been waiting for it.

Speaker 17 No, he's going to kick the ball.

Speaker 40 Good time.

Speaker 26 If he kicks this ball, he gets Tony's family.

Speaker 20 Let Fuentes do do it.

Speaker 1 Look at that lettuce, though.

Speaker 22 Let's go.

Speaker 22 Let's go ahead. Look at those cats.

Speaker 20 Fuentes wasn't ready for this.

Speaker 11 Do you realize how great it would be if Fuentes nailed it?

Speaker 15 Fuentes, I am begging you to make it.

Speaker 24 Oh, he's got good form.

Speaker 54 He's going to go begging.

Speaker 14 You don't have to have two introduction.

Speaker 15 Can you put the right arm up here?

Speaker 11 Here we go. Come on, Fuentes.

Speaker 24 Oh, wow.

Speaker 20 Just like Luke Rosa.

Speaker 11 Just like pot-bellied Nick Folk.

Speaker 54 Oh, Tony!

Speaker 54 Loser!

Speaker 24 You loser! That was great effort.

Speaker 42 Jelly boy.

Speaker 15 It's hard to do.

Speaker 13 Jelly boy.

Speaker 24 Slice an angry. Whoa.

Speaker 11 Slice.

Speaker 11 Jeremy, why did you make me a false advertiser? I said you were going to do a live stream. We were going to cover baseball correctly.

Speaker 11 We weren't going to have baseball totally segregated like we totally do around here too often. Why are you not now doing a live stream when we've got four playoff baseball games today?

Speaker 1 So I was going to do a live stream. We were trying to bring in different friends of the show to be a part of it.

Speaker 1 Started getting some wishy-washiness. And then I got a call from Jane Levy saying that unfortunately she couldn't make it.
She was given tickets to the Yankees-Red Sox game in New York.

Speaker 1 And I said, oh, man, that's such a great decision. Obviously, like, go do that.
Don't worry about the live stream.

Speaker 11 She's like, oh, I wish I could go.

Speaker 1 No, but she did then say, well, that's part of the reason I'm calling you. I have an extra ticket.

Speaker 44 Would you like to go?

Speaker 1 And I said, are you serious?

Speaker 21 And she said, would have been great if she's like, yes. I've been assessing with you and I've taken you.

Speaker 1 So I'm about to head out of here, and I bought a lot of second flights in New York, and I'm going to go to the Yankees-Red Sox game with my new best friend, Jane Levy.

Speaker 7 I love that for you.

Speaker 1 I'm so excited.

Speaker 21 She's so wonderful.

Speaker 1 He's got put out right.

Speaker 1 That's a big first date.

Speaker 15 He really is.

Speaker 18 Pressure's on.

Speaker 23 How bad do you want these tickets, pal? Yeah.

Speaker 1 I already have the tickets.

Speaker 30 It's the implication, though.

Speaker 1 No, we're just best friends. I don't

Speaker 4 know.

Speaker 1 The best relationships start as friendships, right?

Speaker 14 It's true.

Speaker 36 I met my wife when I was 12.

Speaker 43 There you go.

Speaker 1 How old is she?

Speaker 19 16.

Speaker 14 Really? That's what's up, right?

Speaker 17 Wow.

Speaker 1 When did you guys start dating?

Speaker 1 When I was a little bit older.

Speaker 1 How old was she?

Speaker 12 Don't pin them down on this one anymore.

Speaker 14 Well, it's the same age difference, four years.

Speaker 1 And how old was she when you started dating?

Speaker 14 In her 20s.

Speaker 15 And how old were you?

Speaker 44 Yeah.

Speaker 44 Four years less. 14.

Speaker 15 Oh, boy.

Speaker 44 All right. Everybody just piped down.
That's what's up.

Speaker 24 Proud of you. Thanks.

Speaker 1 It's good stuff. Anyway, I'm going to have a great time at at this Yankees game.
Go to Yankees Red Sox in the playoffs.

Speaker 30 Which state were you in?

Speaker 25 Florida.

Speaker 11 A state of bliss.

Speaker 16 Do you want me to do the baseball live stream? I can do that.

Speaker 45 Who's playing?

Speaker 30 Want to wait first pitch, right? We got guards, tigers.

Speaker 23 Yeah, Scoobel on the mound.

Speaker 15 All right, I'll do it.

Speaker 12 I can baseball this thing up. Who wants me?

Speaker 5 You ever try to name all your financial accounts and their balances, 401ks, investments, properties? I can barely remember what I had for lunch, let alone all that stuff.

Speaker 5 That's why I started using Monarch Money. It's an all-in-one finance tool that pulls everything together, your accounts, budgets, goals into one clean dashboard on your phone or laptop.

Speaker 5 And let me tell you, it was a wake-up call. I found a 401k from some job I forgot existed and it wasn't some small change.
Ended up being a nice little chunk of change there for the boy.

Speaker 5 I realized that I had cash just sitting there doing nothing and my investments. Not as smart as I thought it was.
Monarch makes all that obvious and actually actually feels doable.

Speaker 5 No spreadsheets, no hobby between apps, just a real clear view of my money.

Speaker 21 Don Lebatard.

Speaker 11 You don't remember the idea?

Speaker 13 I was probably like, that kind of thing. Something.

Speaker 52 Okay, no, the home run call was that kind of swing, that kind of thing.

Speaker 21 Stugats.

Speaker 1 Oh, it's a good call. Thank you.

Speaker 18 And plus, it doesn't matter who's hitting it. Like, you're not tailoring it to a particular name.
You know, all that jazz, you know, you don't got to do that.

Speaker 24 Oh, that would be a great call.

Speaker 25 Oh, that's a good one.

Speaker 43 That's a swing, that kind of thing.

Speaker 9 This is the Don Lebatar Show with the Stugats.

Speaker 11 Big game or not a big game, it is time for some new imaging that we have around here. This is part of Saszlo's legacy here.
He has been doing this in the South Florida market for a very long time.

Speaker 11 Zaszlo 2.0, you guys have made it skyrocket up the charts as you always do when we tell you to support something. So his own podcast, mostly local, but not all local.

Speaker 11 If you're more interested in Miami Sports and if you're more interested in him crushing the dolphins, Zaszlo 2.0.

Speaker 14 Zaslow Show 2.0.

Speaker 11 Sorry, Zaszlo Show 2.0 is where you go. Are you ready for big game, not a big game? What are we we doing this on, Zaslow? Are we doing it on each game? Are we doing it on just today?

Speaker 11 Because I assume all baseball playoff games, wild card or not, are big games.

Speaker 14 Dan, we're dealing with what's in front of us. We have four Major League Baseball wild card games.

Speaker 22 Howdy, folks.

Speaker 47 Welcome to big game

Speaker 47 or not a big game

Speaker 47 with Jonathan Zaslow.

Speaker 14 first up here Dan

Speaker 14 one o'clock on ESPN the Detroit Tigers at the Cleveland Guardians game one American League Wild Card now the Tigers Dan they have a starting catcher called Dylan Dingler you know that fool I'm writing this down it'll be hugely helpful for my live stream at 108.

Speaker 14 The Guardians they have Jonkenzi Noel.

Speaker 14 He might not start for Cleveland. He might only be hitting 162, but his nickname is Big Christmas.

Speaker 15 That's right.

Speaker 14 Don't be surprised if he hits a big home run today or if he has a big series overall. Tigers,

Speaker 14 Guardians, game one.

Speaker 14 That's a big game.

Speaker 54 Big game.

Speaker 11 That's a big game. I will be surprised if he hits a home run.
Isn't Scoobel pitching?

Speaker 15 Scoobel is on the mountain.

Speaker 21 That's going to be really interesting.

Speaker 1 He's got a 0.68 ERA against the Guardians this year, but third straight start against him in about a week and a half.

Speaker 25 Oh, I'm sorry. Sorry.
I'm sorry.

Speaker 15 Sorry. Sorry.

Speaker 20 You made your choice.

Speaker 21 Yeah, exactly right.

Speaker 14 Next up, 3 p.m.,

Speaker 14 ABC,

Speaker 14 Padres

Speaker 14 at Cubs. Game one,

Speaker 14 National League Wild Card Series. Now, this game, like you heard me say, it's on ABC.

Speaker 13 That's a little bit weird, right?

Speaker 14 But you know what that means.

Speaker 1 Padres, Cubs, Wrigley Field.

Speaker 14 That's a big game.

Speaker 12 Big game. Can you name some players for me? I'm just trying to follow.
Is that Tatis still around?

Speaker 14 Andre Dawson.

Speaker 43 Big game.

Speaker 14 Sean Dunstan.

Speaker 35 Big game.

Speaker 14 Mark Grace.

Speaker 54 Big game.

Speaker 14 Next up.

Speaker 11 Tatis does lead off for the Padres.

Speaker 44 6 p.m. Did Kyle Tucker figure it out?

Speaker 14 ESPN.

Speaker 14 Red Sox

Speaker 13 at Yankees.

Speaker 14 Game one, American League Wild Card. Both starting pitchers have a last name.
That's a verb, Dan. You got Garrett Crochet and Max Freed.

Speaker 14 That's right. Those are verbs.
Very important grammatically in the English language. Now, these two teams, they hate each other.
You know about Pesky Pole, Dan?

Speaker 43 I do.

Speaker 14 It doesn't matter because the the game is in Yankees Stadium. Red Sox at Yankees.
Game one?

Speaker 16 Obviously.

Speaker 14 That's a big game.

Speaker 24 I got one. I'll be there.

Speaker 10 I know.

Speaker 14 Where are you sitting? Did you ask her where you're sitting?

Speaker 1 I got really good seats. That would have been a funny follow-up.
Like, where are the seats? What are you guys wearing? Like, what do you wear to this?

Speaker 1 You're just going to wear a t-shirt and jeans. Oh.
Thanks for asking. Okay.

Speaker 14 Are you coming up with a list of like conversation pieces? You don't want any like downtime, you know?

Speaker 1 A bottle of wine for her parents, maybe.

Speaker 23 You're going to want to wear some sweatpants if you catch Madrid.

Speaker 13 I'll have her back home before curfew. Good lord.

Speaker 14 I got one more for you ass here, Dan.

Speaker 14 9 p.m.

Speaker 14 ESPN.

Speaker 14 Reds at

Speaker 14 Dodgers.

Speaker 14 Now, the Reds, they kind of stink. They got in because the Marlins beat the Mets.
The Marlins did them a solid. The Dodgers, they shouldn't stink.

Speaker 14 You would think the Dodgers with their payroll would have had a buy.

Speaker 29 But nonetheless, here they are.

Speaker 14 If they lose in the wild card series the reds oh

Speaker 14 reds dodgers game one

Speaker 14 that's not a big game it's not a big game

Speaker 25 that's not a game

Speaker 17 that's not a big game

Speaker 14 nope nope dodges are gonna smoke them reds don't belong not a big game not a big game Okay,

Speaker 11 big surprise there at the end. I thought all playoff games were big games.

Speaker 14 You didn't know that I was going to say that.

Speaker 11 A real surprise there.

Speaker 11 Put it on the poll at Lebatarge aren't all playoff games big games I want to get to some of the clippers reaction here from media day to all of Pablo Torrey's reporting but first we've got Ray Hudson's call of the day

Speaker 53 And he absolutely detonates this. One touch to control.
Second one to send it home with a dozen roses tied around it.

Speaker 11 Have Roy just say the word weak and let's make it call of the week. We're going to run out of calls to try and get to the World Cup.

Speaker 16 No, that's crazy.

Speaker 11 We've got to just put Roy's voice in there just saying weak.

Speaker 1 That reminded me on my dad's podcast this week. He called the Monday Night Game last night between Jets Dolphins the game of the week.

Speaker 50 W-E-A-K.

Speaker 15 Good line by him. He's a writer.

Speaker 11 The Greg Cody Show featuring Greg Cody.

Speaker 11 What's on there?

Speaker 11 What are you doing with the Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody?

Speaker 18 We actually have a guy, you may remember. he used to be on this show.
Stugatz is with us on

Speaker 11 the Greg Cody show. That's a good guest.
How's he doing?

Speaker 18 We had some fun. He's good.
He's good. He's good.
Of course, we ask him all the questions you'd think we would ask him. And so you've got to listen to that.

Speaker 18 Christopher interviews me and got some information out of me that I barely remembered, such as starting a field on fire to the point where the

Speaker 21 fire department had to be called. Here, I have this story actually.

Speaker 18 I was very young at the time.

Speaker 13 Let's let the audience listen to this.

Speaker 57 I think we actually once started a field on fire.

Speaker 57 It was the summer and everything was, you know, lightable. Everything was going to light.
And we lit a fire in a field. You know, no structures were damaged.
Nobody was hurt.

Speaker 1 And it obviously stopped.

Speaker 57 Well, we took off and watched it from a distance. I think

Speaker 25 it was.

Speaker 1 A fire truck came.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Wow, that's intense. And you guys didn't get in trouble?

Speaker 57 No, because nobody ever knew. You know, I mean, I don't mean to imply that there was a big bonfire covering a whole block.
I mean, it was probably put out, you know, within 15, 20 minutes.

Speaker 1 As a kid, Greg and his friends starting a fire in a field.

Speaker 18 Yeah, well, he asked me if I had gotten into any trouble. I didn't really get in trouble, but that was a mischievous kind of thing to do.

Speaker 1 You said you also stole gum from

Speaker 1 the middle.

Speaker 15 I never did that.

Speaker 21 Who didn't?

Speaker 27 People who don't steal didn't.

Speaker 18 You go in a store, you put a pack of juicy fruit in your pocket.

Speaker 15 No.

Speaker 18 I mean, I was like six years old, seven years old.

Speaker 14 So this started at a really young age for you.

Speaker 18 Well, it didn't continue, but it started, yeah, when you met your wife, Zaz.

Speaker 11 That's what I was just going to say. That's when you started dating your wife.

Speaker 20 That's what's up.

Speaker 46 That's what's up.

Speaker 11 Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody. Check out Greg Cody's show.
That's a good guess. Dugats is going to be there with Greg Cody.

Speaker 11 Can you get for me, please, some of the sound from Clippers Media Day? Lawrence Frank talked, and also Ramona Shelburne. Was this a back and forth with Kawhi Leonard? Because Ramona

Speaker 11 was asking difficult questions at Media Day, and I have noticed, and surely

Speaker 11 the audience that is making Pablo's numbers explode because Pablo's the only one with good information here.

Speaker 11 The audience has noticed that no one is covering this well because they can't. I don't even blame the media.
I'm not even saying that this is about partnerships or compromise conflicts.

Speaker 11 It's just too complicated a story for much of the media to be be able to cover it correctly. And so you've got a whole bunch of people refraining from covering it and it's conspicuous in its absence.

Speaker 21 How is it?

Speaker 20 Pablo's laid it all out there in really digestible ways.

Speaker 21 I don't think it is.

Speaker 12 I think what makes it difficult for these media companies to cover this is because the NBA basically has partnerships with all of them and they don't want to talk about this.

Speaker 12 But in terms of being easy to follow and report on, the reporting's been done for them. It's not like networks don't talk about stories that aren't reported initially by them.

Speaker 45 So I don't buy that.

Speaker 44 I think something larger is at play, Zaz.

Speaker 14 I found myself really,

Speaker 14 I don't know if angry is the right word, but I was certainly annoyed watching the response from not just the president of the Clippers, Lawrence Frank, but also specifically Kawhi Leonard.

Speaker 14 So they're doing media day and Kawhi Leonard is up there, you know, on the podium. And Ramona, like, it's not a one-on-one.

Speaker 14 It's in the regular press conference setting but she clearly it's like hey everybody kind of you know step aside Ramona's got a few questions here

Speaker 55 what is your understanding of the endorsement deal that you had with the company that that was that's been talked to aspiration and did you perform any services for them

Speaker 48 when you say understanding what do you mean like the of the contract you signed and how much money you were to receive what you were supposed to perform for those services I understand that full contract and and the services that I had to do um like I said I don't deal with the conspiracies or the clickbait

Speaker 48 analyst or journalism that's going on.

Speaker 48 So

Speaker 48 that's what it is.

Speaker 55 I think the allegation was that you didn't perform any services for them.

Speaker 55 Is that accurate or did you?

Speaker 48 I don't think it's accurate, but it's old.

Speaker 48 This is all new to you guys.

Speaker 48 The company went bankrupt a while ago, so we already knew this was going to happen.

Speaker 55 You were named as like the largest creditor in the bankruptcy filing, right? Did you actually get the money that was owed to you in the contract?

Speaker 15 No.

Speaker 48 The company went belly up. It was frauded, as everybody knows.

Speaker 48 If you want any more questions or more details about that company, you need to ask the owner or whoever else is involved in the fraud that went on.

Speaker 55 Right, I think they said they owed you $7 million or something, right?

Speaker 48 I'm not sure. I got to look back at the books, but no, it's more than that for sure.

Speaker 55 Do you have any idea of how much you actually made on that?

Speaker 48 No,

Speaker 48 it was like two, three, four years ago.

Speaker 14 Yeah, like the whole thing made me really angry.

Speaker 14 I mean, first off, he understands the full contract, but then, you know, when he's asked, did he perform or not perform what he was supposed to do for the endorsement deal?

Speaker 14 I don't think that's accurate. Well, listen, man, if you understand the full contract, you know if you performed or did not perform what was asked of you.

Speaker 14 And then the whole, you you know, this is old news. This is just new to you guys.
Kawhi, we're all just finding out about it now, all right?

Speaker 14 You know, not to compare it to a crime, because in his case, like a crime was not committed here, but if we find out about a crime from a couple of years ago, you knew about it.

Speaker 14 It's it's we're just finding out about it now. So we're going to treat it as such.
It doesn't matter that you knew about the crime that took place and it was a few years ago. Like who cares about it?

Speaker 11 You can't say not to compare it to a crime and then call it a crime.

Speaker 18 Well, he he was given ample opportunity to detail and outline what he did to earn some of that money. And he didn't.

Speaker 18 Like, if you actually did, if this is a false story and you actually did stuff for this company to ostensibly earn all that money, you have every opportunity to say in detail what you did in a way that would be verifiable.

Speaker 30 It's all playing dumb.

Speaker 13 It's just playing dumb.

Speaker 11 Well, this was interesting to me. The Clippers had plenty of time to prepare for what they did yesterday.

Speaker 11 And I understand Kawhi being clumsy around this because he is not a good spokesman, not a good public figure.

Speaker 14 Not someone you would want to endorse your product?

Speaker 11 Not somebody that should be speaking about

Speaker 11 accusations like this in a way that is sophisticated.

Speaker 1 Maybe he's just sparing us boring details. Like, Greg, what did you do day to day four years ago at the Herald? Like, you don't want to tell us everything you did.

Speaker 20 He's just sparing us.

Speaker 11 Here is the Clippers president, Lawrence, being the opposite of Frank.
