Speaker 11 We're watching NBA TV as one does at this hour, this time of the year, and Iceman's on with Scal. And we were saying how Iceman is kind of committed to this hairstyle.

Speaker 11 We don't think that he could ever change that hairstyle. There's not much of an evolution there.
It's just this is his look and he's going to kind of have that hairstyle forever.

Speaker 11 There's not a ton that he could do with it. And then we looked at Dan and we said, you know what?

Speaker 11 Dan with a little bit of a salt and pepper going on with the beard, the glasses now rounder version of the glasses. He's got kind of like an Andy Garcia vibe to him.

Speaker 11 And we think that if he throws in a scarf, that it would really take his look to the next level.

Speaker 16 That's how older Cuban gentlemen age.

Speaker 17 They mix in a scarf.

Speaker 11 But not like Martin Short type. You know what I mean?

Speaker 4 Like there's a...

Speaker 11 We'd have to get the right scarf, I think, for him. And then it was kind of suggested back here, maybe we soft launch the rebrand with an ascot, and then we move move into the scarf.

Speaker 19 I'd like that idea.

Speaker 21 Look, I don't think there's any soft-launching with an ascot. I actually think that's more aggressive than the scarf.
Really? You have it reversed. You soft-launch the ascot with the scarf.

Speaker 23 Now, Andy Garcia does a kerchief, though. That's the classiest, right?

Speaker 25 Like, you guys, he's doing it correctly.

Speaker 24 You throw in a scarf with me.

Speaker 26 It's asinine.

Speaker 29 It's like truly really

Speaker 30 a little stuffy for you.

Speaker 19 But I like it as a character evolution.

Speaker 33 Old Cuban man with a scarf.

Speaker 34 Like, I'm I'm going for great style in my late Cuban age.

Speaker 35 I've seen you wear a scarf a couple of times. It's not a good look for you.

Speaker 20 Yeah, I don't know why. Yeah, Vegas.

Speaker 4 They look small.

Speaker 11 Did you have those glasses on? I don't know.

Speaker 37 It looks the way the sports coat looked on Chris Farley. Yeah.

Speaker 38 You guys think I should let you guys dress me?

Speaker 39 Because I think I might give Tony a shot at it.

Speaker 3 I think, Dan, I think I could put you together and get some more beads on your hands, on your wrists.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you're approaching.

Speaker 20 Definitely beads.

Speaker 3 Like 10 of them, though.

Speaker 3 It looks like a QB wristband.

Speaker 11 you got to get the one with the one white bead on it, too. And it's like, this is eyes from Antarctica.
And this really keeps me balanced.

Speaker 42 So you guys going to set that up for me? You guys want to style me?

Speaker 46 Do you want to should we have a week where you guys got where you guys style me? You're saying I need styling.

Speaker 20 Yeah, you got to have styling.

Speaker 48 I see you in a pipe. Gonna take up pipe smoking.
Yeah, with a pipe.

Speaker 11 No, in a pipe, yeah.

Speaker 48 I see you with a pipe, not in a pipe.

Speaker 24 I cannot wait to get to your dolphin thoughts.

Speaker 48 I can't wait to give them.

Speaker 50 I think I have a breathless South Florida the way they used to around an A.M.

Speaker 33 radio as Jimmy Cephalo and Joe Rose die a syllable at a time on the air.

Speaker 39 Greg Cody right now has a unique access to dolphin feelings as the author of Finns at 50.

Speaker 48 Yes.

Speaker 48 I got to update that book because it would now be Finns at 60.

Speaker 52 Your team is the greatest laughing stock on earth, not known as the Jets.

Speaker 53 Correct.

Speaker 4 Yes.

Speaker 48 Although the Dolphins had had more than negative 10 yards passing Sunday, so it was a positive. You know, I'm seeing the glass half full yesterday.

Speaker 54 Don't do that. I know, I'm kidding.

Speaker 48 At this point, I'm kidding.

Speaker 1 There were signs.

Speaker 47 At least there wasn't a terrible press conference.

Speaker 1 This is the Don Levatar show with the Stu Gats Podcast.

Speaker 40 The Panthers are 3-0.

Speaker 48 Damn right.

Speaker 48 79 more.

Speaker 33 They're at the top of the standings.

Speaker 32 The Panthers,

Speaker 55 I have to.

Speaker 42 I'm obligated to start football instead of where the real excellence resides. I'm going to do drama and bullshit at quarterback instead of like where greatness resides.

Speaker 11 If the Panthers go undefeated in the regular season, but then lose in the playoffs, is it viewed differently than the Dolphins going undefeated throughout the entire regular season and playoffs?

Speaker 37 Yes. Yeah.

Speaker 20 Huh.

Speaker 48 Got to do it in the playoffs.

Speaker 20 Peter Miami found that out later.

Speaker 28 The Heat are 0-4.

Speaker 58 The Heat are 0-4. Yeah.

Speaker 49 Nobody comes. It's the preseason.

Speaker 20 No big games until October.

Speaker 25 Oh, but I thought when they were 4-0 in the preseason with Wade and LeBron and Bosch, I thought back then when it mattered like that, the preseason did matter when we cared about seasons like that.

Speaker 43 Yeah, different expectations.

Speaker 45 Cared about seasons the way that you care about the Panther season, which opens with three wins at home.

Speaker 24 But I do feel obligated to get to the Jets first, not even the Tua stuff, because the Jets stuff is hysterical.

Speaker 60 Like the worst passing performance ever in non-weather conditions.

Speaker 42 Like, I understand a terrible passing performance if it's like crazy snow and stuff, but you're going to have negative 10.

Speaker 64 In the passing age, you're going to have negative 10 yards.

Speaker 60 Your coach is going to be overmatched and fired and like halfway through the season because they don't know what they're doing at the end of halves.

Speaker 19 And he's getting mad at the media because he's still arguing that what we saw from Justin Fields was professional quarterbacking.

Speaker 61 see what's happening in that league.

Speaker 19 That's not what quarterbacking looks like.

Speaker 57 Everything needs to happen a lot faster than that.

Speaker 67 Caleb Williams had to learn it like that. Justin Fields had to learn it like that.

Speaker 40 Justin Fields, you're not learning it fast enough.

Speaker 33 Justin Fields, you're finished as a quarterback in this league.

Speaker 21 You're avoiding the Chiefs, aren't you?

Speaker 19 I owe Nick Wright a white Corvette.

Speaker 36 We changed it after the bet was made.

Speaker 4 I don't think.

Speaker 20 No, no, I owe him.

Speaker 63 No, I owe him a white Corvette.

Speaker 20 Or $5,000. No, I...
Or $5,000. That was the bet made.

Speaker 11 The bet was $5,000.

Speaker 11 We decided to joke Corvette.

Speaker 63 No, I was...

Speaker 70 I asked Erlene, your wife, for the VIN number of your.

Speaker 72 I'm trying to buy your white Corvette to give it to her.

Speaker 20 We're efforting.

Speaker 73 We're efforting to find that original Corvette, the white one that my dad got.

Speaker 20 That would be so bad.

Speaker 20 I lost it.

Speaker 43 I lost the bet, and it's not even a bet I understand.

Speaker 64 Like, the reason I don't understand the bet is why am I now the guy who's against the Chiefs?

Speaker 20 All I've said is that their offense has been bad for a year and a half. That's not what happened.
Oh, that is rich, pal.

Speaker 68 Are you serious?

Speaker 20 That's not all.

Speaker 20 What?

Speaker 62 No, you own that. What do I own?

Speaker 74 Oh, stop.

Speaker 20 What's wrong with the offense?

Speaker 4 Oh, he's a dink and dung quarterback now.

Speaker 2 Pretty sure you said it was done.

Speaker 70 You guys put that on.

Speaker 20 No, no, no. No, no, no.

Speaker 20 This is rich. This is cheated.

Speaker 53 This is something special.

Speaker 70 You, okay, so.

Speaker 20 Yeah, yeah, no, it's me. It's us.

Speaker 74 It's everybody else.

Speaker 44 I owe Nick Wright a white Corvette.

Speaker 67 It is now three outstanding debts.

Speaker 46 We should do sports trivia.

Speaker 38 Maybe we should do it at this crappy watch party we got to do for the world's crappiest game, sponsored by Miller-Light.

Speaker 42 This is going to be a blast.

Speaker 10 This game might be crappy, but this event.

Speaker 71 We're going to do a block party.

Speaker 34 We haven't had a party around here in a while.

Speaker 24 We need one.

Speaker 58 We need a party around here.

Speaker 25 And we're going to do it around the Ravens and the Dolphins, no matter how many losses there are between them.

Speaker 42 Come watch Lamar Jackson.

Speaker 20 Maybe.

Speaker 50 And a defense for the Ravens that has given up more points than Ray Lewis's Ravens gave up the entire Super Bowl season.

Speaker 24 Come watch it with us October 30th as part of a Halloween celebrations.

Speaker 23 There's going going to be costume stuff.

Speaker 19 I'm trying to get Greg Cody's white Corvette that I now owe.

Speaker 25 It's three outstanding debts, and I'd like to do sports trivia.

Speaker 23 Do you guys know what my three outstanding debts are? Because

Speaker 75 I know what the three are.

Speaker 19 I only know, though, what two of them are about.

Speaker 51 The white Corvette I now owe, Nick Wright.

Speaker 16 Do you know the other two?

Speaker 25 Two debts I have not paid.

Speaker 16 I don't.

Speaker 26 Maybe we'll leave it unsaid for a while.

Speaker 19 If you guys don't know, then it's a difficult trivia question because I like to pay my debts, and I've got two that are outstanding on this show that surely listeners will remember, even if you guys don't.

Speaker 79 But, Billy, how mad are you at Tua Today?

Speaker 25 How mad are you at the Dolphins?

Speaker 56 How mad are you at everything Miami before we get to Greg Cody as the author of Finns at 50?

Speaker 36 Wait, don't you have to do a Prince Fielder photo shoot?

Speaker 33 Yeah.

Speaker 59 Well, see, that's the one I don't know why I owe that.

Speaker 42 Like, you guys have said that, but it's kind of like this Chiefs thing you just did to me.

Speaker 57 No, it's nothing like that.

Speaker 20 Yeah, yeah, you guys made it so

Speaker 22 you guys made it so.

Speaker 37 We are flatly holding the line here.

Speaker 62 We're not going to let you do that.

Speaker 20 You weasel.

Speaker 15 That is the most weasely thing you have done in a long time.

Speaker 30 Stop the Chiefs offensive.

Speaker 7 Help you. We kept throwing you lifesavers.

Speaker 62 Man, don't do this.

Speaker 68 Don't do this.

Speaker 81 They got guys coming back. Don't do this.

Speaker 74 And you're like,

Speaker 20 Rasheed Rice is coming back this week.

Speaker 53 They're dead.

Speaker 20 They're dead.

Speaker 20 I've done that.

Speaker 48 Okay. He's over, Mom.

Speaker 68 Dink and dunk.

Speaker 54 Now we've got some stakes with Nick Wright, don't we?

Speaker 22 When we've opened with a white Corvette, he's the big Chiefs guy, and you guys are putting something on me that's already cost me a white Corvette.

Speaker 81 You asked to make that bet.

Speaker 20 You're like, 5,000.

Speaker 35 I'll give you points.

Speaker 74 These are direct quotes.

Speaker 68 That's correct.

Speaker 42 But the bet that I am now stuck with, if you guys can find the sound, I'm happy to take the L on this.

Speaker 45 I'm already owing a white Corvette, which is why I'm spending the weekend with Greg's wife trying to get a VIN number to a white Corvette.

Speaker 47 I may just send him the one that Billy found, though, that doesn't have a transmission, so I can have the joke of he's just got a burden and a responsibility in front of his brownstone.

Speaker 15 You are walking back your Chiefs take so hard.

Speaker 16 Jeremy found a quote. Jeremy, can you please inform Dan and the audience?

Speaker 2 Quote: He is a dink and dunk quarterback. I don't believe that if Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, you mentioned were these out, I can have them lose guys and they'll have a variety of game.

Speaker 2 They'd have a versatility required in today's game that wouldn't make them look as unaesthetically pleasing as what I'm watching from the Chiefs.

Speaker 2 You assumed every game that they were going over 30 points. That team's dead.

Speaker 5 Dan Lebetard.

Speaker 4 Whoa.

Speaker 74 Ah, that team is dead. Own that.

Speaker 23 That team last night had one play of 30 yards.

Speaker 20 In fairness,

Speaker 20 look at the pivot.

Speaker 11 They also didn't go over 30 points. They stopped at 30 yesterday, so he wasn't wrong about that.

Speaker 78 The team that is dead, and I will remain believing is dead.

Speaker 19 I don't want to start with the Chiefs, but since we're here, I owe a white Corvette.

Speaker 58 That's the starting on the bidding, and now I'm going to up the stakes because I'm going to bet Nick Wright all season on whatever this is because I

Speaker 67 don't believe the Chiefs are going to be a champion again and I believe their offense and I'm saying something factual and empirical here over the last year and a half before the last two games the Chiefs offense has been dreadful to watch and what was dead is the 30-point team that you bet the beginning of games that's got that game going over 31 and a half on the Chiefs I believe that team and that offense to be dead you guys have been saying well when Rice and Worthy are back you will see a difference and we have obviously seen a difference but it is not not the team that won the Super Bowl with Tyree Kill flying down the field 50-yard plays.

Speaker 25 They do it in one drive.

Speaker 77 They require precision right now that I believe still puts them well behind the top teams in this league, but you guys are going to make me Patrick Mahomes was done.

Speaker 77 That's what you guys are telling me.

Speaker 20 That team is dead.

Speaker 16 You said that team is dead.

Speaker 78 That offense is dead.

Speaker 4 Okay, and the entire time we're like, wait, there are guys out.

Speaker 18 And once those guys came back, as you mentioned, that's what we were warning you against because like the results you were taking was because they didn't have those guys.

Speaker 23 The results you're taking after two games is to say the Chiefs are something I still don't believe them to be.

Speaker 53 Okay, so you doubled down.

Speaker 20 Cool.

Speaker 41 They still think they're dead.

Speaker 11 They've also scored the second most points in the AFC. That's right.
Behind only the Colts.

Speaker 48 The Chiefs have more cause to win the Super Bowl right now than they've had all season. I am beginning to believe in the Chiefs.
This is a wide open season. There's no super teams.
Bills have lost.

Speaker 48 Eagles have lost. The Ravens are what they are.
There are no super teams. And I'm not going to trust a team that's been to the last six Super Bowls or whatever that crazy stat is with Mahomes.

Speaker 30 I mean, you trusted the Dolphins, Carlos. About to get Rashi Rice back.

Speaker 48 By the way, when you say I trusted the Dolphins, I predicted them to go 9-8 and have a chance to make a wild.

Speaker 30 15th best team.

Speaker 48 Don't act like I ever pushed them for the Super Bowl. Hell no.

Speaker 42 Can you get me the Dolphins sound?

Speaker 33 I will continue to argue this with you guys for as long as you'd like to argue it, but I do want to get to what's happening with the Dolphins because it's interesting, because, of course, they're seen as done again, again, again, as we could have said at 0-3.

Speaker 78 As you can say,

Speaker 83 six games in, there will be no bouncing back from this when

Speaker 24 you lose games like the one they lost yesterday, where you get the two a comeback.

Speaker 79 Like, this is all going to get lost in the press conference.

Speaker 60 It really is.

Speaker 47 But to beat that Chargers team and someone Zaz is saying is the greatest coach of all time, better than Belichick because he can win on any level, You got exactly what you needed at the end of that game.

Speaker 50 Those Chargers were tired in this South Florida heat.

Speaker 42 They had no pass rush left.

Speaker 45 That team was done.

Speaker 25 You finished them to have had the play you needed to have to Waller in the back of the end zone. The game is one.

Speaker 39 All you've got to do is make a tackle.

Speaker 72 You could choose which one you'd like to make.

Speaker 67 You can make it of Herbert.

Speaker 71 Or you can make it of McConkey, but all you have to do is make one tackle.

Speaker 25 And neither of you can do it because now for this season, you guys are losers. Like you're going to be losers all season.
There's no bouncing back from this.

Speaker 67 And as the flames climb, the quarterbacks at the press conference saying, well, it's not me who doesn't care.

Speaker 45 It's not me who's not showing up to the meetings.

Speaker 42 The problem is with leadership, but it's not me.

Speaker 64 We had a players-only meeting.

Speaker 66 And this is what happened.

Speaker 85 I think it starts with the leadership in helping articulate that for the guys. And then what we're expecting out of the guys, right? We're expecting this.
Are we getting that? Are we not getting that?

Speaker 85 We have guys showing up to player-only meetings late, guys not showing up to player-only meetings. Like, there's a lot that goes into that.
Do we have to make this mandatory?

Speaker 85 Do we not have to make this mandatory? It's a lot of things of that nature.

Speaker 26 To be clear, you're saying some players were late or missed? Late.

Speaker 11 Yeah.

Speaker 9 Yeah, thank you.

Speaker 12 Can you mandate a players-only meeting?

Speaker 88 Who's in charge?

Speaker 12 Who's in charge of a players-only meeting, Dad?

Speaker 89 Let's just talk this out.

Speaker 48 Well, who's the captain of the team? Who are the captains of the team? That's a great question. And by default, let's say the team had no captains.
Your default captain is your starting quarterback.

Speaker 48 Zagak. Like, I don't mind that Tua said what he said.

Speaker 12 He's ripping himself.

Speaker 48 He's ripping the entire.

Speaker 24 It would be funny if he was the one that was late.

Speaker 57 Well,

Speaker 11 there were tweets of players that said, like, I was on the Dolphins for three minutes, which wasn't a very long time, but Tua was late to the first players-only meeting, the only one I was part of in training camp.

Speaker 11 So it seems as though we might be leading by example for her to believe that that's a real person.

Speaker 11 But Tua's a team captain, Alec Ingold, Zach Seeler, Bradley Chubb, Aaron Brewer, and Jordan Brooks are the team captains this season for the Dolphins.

Speaker 11 So when he's saying that leadership is failing and then points out a players-only meeting, he would be the leadership in that situation, which is failing, which is not a good thing for him to be pointing out.

Speaker 11 And I've said before that I think he needs lies serum because he's a little bit too honest and he's comfortable in his honesty, but it's not doing him any favors because I think that, you know, as the season's gone on, we know this is probably going to be it for Mike McDaniel.

Speaker 11 It probably, well, definitely should be it for Chris Greer. But now, you know, anyone who was kind of a Tua defender is like, well, let's see what Tua is with new coach.

Speaker 11 And now you're like, this guy is also not working.

Speaker 11 Not that there were many people that still were saying he was working, but I don't know how you can get rid of him if you even wanted to, but it seems like they need to completely clean the house.

Speaker 19 Here's a question.

Speaker 90 You walked into a stash house and found found it full of $20 million.

Speaker 65 How much would you steal?

Speaker 90 That's the question Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have to answer in Netflix's new movie, The Rip.

Speaker 90 They play a team of Miami cops alongside Tiana Taylor, Stephen Yon, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Kyle Chandler, and Saza Kaije, all trying to decide: are they the good guys or the bad guys?

Speaker 90 This movie is an edge-of-you-seat thrill ride the entire time, keeping you guessing until the very end.

Speaker 69 Don't miss the rip.

Speaker 90 Only on Netflix on January 16th.

Speaker 3 All right, so apparently everyone is launching their own AI agents now. You get an agent.
No, you get an agent.

Speaker 3 They're automatting tasks, running workflows, making decisions, and occasionally absolutely wrecking your day. You know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 3 An agent deletes the wrong files, changes something you've never approved, or just goes completely off script, like it's trying to improvise its way out of a paperbag.

Speaker 3 And suddenly, you're the one stuck trying to figure out what went wrong unless you're using Rubrik Agent Cloud. Because here's the thing: AI is moving fast, like really fast.

Speaker 30 It's December, which means the holidays are here.

Speaker 82 Again, some families have those big heartwarming traditions, and then there are the rest of us just trying to keep things peaceful and make it through the month without any major incidents.

Speaker 4 Don Lebatard.

Speaker 85 All right, we got to go back out there. That was big.

Speaker 86 Wake him up.

Speaker 85 Uh-oh.

Speaker 83 He doesn't want to be bothered anymore. Now it's getting tense because he didn't need that as a result.

Speaker 23 He needs something that happens.

Speaker 20 You can see him, mother F-A-D.

Speaker 86 Can we bother?

Speaker 23 Are we bothering you right now? Turn on your microphone, Greg.

Speaker 53 My microphone's on.

Speaker 7 Stugats.

Speaker 1 Paint paint the scene the paint the scene is i gotta go to work good night this is the dan lebatar show with the stugats

Speaker 87 Tua said last week and he made news for just being like, you know, I'm actually in a decent mindset right now because I'm not on social media. I go home and my kids are still happy to see me.

Speaker 12 I would argue that his kid, we should show his kids that interception on that last play of the game.

Speaker 20 They need to see it. They deserve to see it.

Speaker 42 Wait, this is going to happen to Tua today?

Speaker 33 Greg, let's see where your homer is on this because this is going to happen to Tua today because it's three interceptions.

Speaker 79 He won the game, people.

Speaker 52 The interceptions on Waddle, the first one, the third one's irrelevant.

Speaker 69 You've coughed up the game he just won for you, and he threw a pick. But also, 27 at home should be enough to beat those Chargers.

Speaker 69 27 at home with two game-winning drives where the pass rush can't get near you, and you're throwing to Waller in the back of the end zone.

Speaker 64 He won the game.

Speaker 71 The game was won, and then it wasn't won because you've got all the advantages at the end of the game. Make a tackle.
Make a tackle.

Speaker 14 You've got the quarterback. You've got Herbert in your hands.

Speaker 69 Jalen Phillips, you are the king of almost.

Speaker 48 It starts before they miss that tackle. It starts before Jalen Phillips missed the sack.
It starts before the pass to McConkey. It starts with the special teams allowing a long kickoff return.

Speaker 48 Okay, here you're facing

Speaker 48 a Chargers place kicker who's got all kind of length on his game. He can kick a 60-yard field goal, and you're giving up a kickoff return past the 40-yard line.
They did everything wrong.

Speaker 48 The special teams lost that game. The defense lost that game.
Tua, I'm glad you mentioned that. Tua, on what should have been the heroic game-winning drive, did everything right.

Speaker 48 He was as good as I've seen him on that drive. He was eight for eight, eight for eight for 57 yards.
He gave them a lead with 46.

Speaker 45 With a very limited offense against a very good defense that was gutted.

Speaker 24 It was gas.

Speaker 48 If the special teams and the defense finished that game, we're having a whole different conversation about Tua right now, and he doesn't say what he says.

Speaker 75 I'll go a step further. I'll go a step further than that.

Speaker 78 If the apocalypse that somehow never happens in that sport, and I don't get why this never happens, Dicker is insane, okay?

Speaker 79 The stat that he's 100 from a, he has 100 of 106, and five of the misses are from 50 plus.

Speaker 71 That snap was terrible to win the game. Like, terrible.

Speaker 62 What the holder did, and I don't even know who the holder is, was rescue the game.

Speaker 42 Like, that's as bad a snap as you will ever see, and no one remembers it.

Speaker 64 And if that snap had been botched, none of this comes to the surface.

Speaker 65 We never see any of it.

Speaker 67 The game's over right there, and Tua did win the game.

Speaker 48 Yeah, and he's the hero today. All of a sudden, we're saying, you know what? Tua is three and one head-to-head now with Justin Herbert.
Who is better?

Speaker 77 I don't know how that holder got it down.

Speaker 48 Yeah, it was high-end inside.

Speaker 11 Well, this is two weeks in a row that Tua's had a game-winning drive that didn't actually win the game because then the defense came and immediately gave up the lead.

Speaker 11 I also don't understand, though, like

Speaker 11 Tua's complaints and the thing. I don't know what a players-only meeting would have done to like teach them to tackle on the last drive that would have won them that game.

Speaker 21 But it does sound like it speaks to a larger issue, which was kind of hovering around this team over the offseason, which was reshaping the culture.

Speaker 16 Now, Tyreek Hill is away from the team because he's injured.

Speaker 36 You still have this culture problem. I think you guys did a really great job at framing that this is not all Tua's fault.

Speaker 21 Tua had some moments.

Speaker 37 That is a disastrous clip from your leader, from your quarterback.

Speaker 17 I don't know what's worse, the fact that he's putting that business out there or the fact that it actually happened.

Speaker 35 I don't know if that's, that feels like a last resort leadership.

Speaker 68 No, but you guys snitch on people that way.

Speaker 62 Oh, but it's not even that, though.

Speaker 53 Like, this is the apocalypse, right?

Speaker 45 They could have denied like Cody for four or five games.

Speaker 53 Oh, well, we're still in it.

Speaker 42 It was almost against Carolina.

Speaker 78 You know, we look good against the Jets, whatever the arguments would be on behalf of the structure of this thing that is clearly dying, right?

Speaker 59 Like we've been saying for a month, it's all over.

Speaker 42 This is the longest tenure a GM has ever had without a playoff game.

Speaker 14 There's no playoff win without a playoff win.

Speaker 59 There's not a GM in the league who has had more time and done less with playoff victories than Chris Greer.

Speaker 23 So worse in the league when you're talking about spending like $900 million,

Speaker 45 $900 million in free agents,

Speaker 31 what is it, 21 first and second-round picks.

Speaker 72 And what you have to show for it, a player like Jalen Phillips could have won the game for you, and now the flames are climbing so high on everyone that Tua got his money, but he's got no protection on his career anymore.

Speaker 14 Like, these two people are clearly gone, and he gave you the game-winning drive.

Speaker 62 Like, we don't have a lot of those to remember.

Speaker 64 We don't have any against winning teams.

Speaker 14 Like, the the reason this thing is broken, they can't beat anyone good.

Speaker 69 They're like 1-15 the last 16 games against teams with a winning record.

Speaker 48 Yeah, I think the exact stat is he's now 3-16 on a 3-16 skid against teams.

Speaker 75 That's not a skid. That's a resume.

Speaker 16 Yeah, that's who you are.

Speaker 74 That's not even a trend.

Speaker 20 That's who you are.

Speaker 23 That is not a skid.

Speaker 84 You can't beat good teams at the end.

Speaker 79 We know we're getting that interception.

Speaker 55 And we know to fear Herbert those last 50 seconds.

Speaker 59 We know to fear Herbert those last 50 seconds.

Speaker 79 Why do we know that?

Speaker 42 He doesn't have a bunch of playoff victories.

Speaker 50 He's got none.

Speaker 7 I would argue we don't know we're getting that interception at the end.

Speaker 10 I have never seen the play where there's no timeouts left and you have to go the full length of the field to get a touchdown.

Speaker 12 Usually you just throw it and then it's just a bunch of laterals.

Speaker 7 He intercepted the easy pass.

Speaker 88 I've never seen that pass intercepted before.

Speaker 35 The defense usually concedes, all right, there's got to be some silliness here.

Speaker 10 There's just one linebacker there. Like, I'm going to go stand near the guy they're going to throw to.

Speaker 20 And he just throws it right to the linebacker.

Speaker 35 Yeah, we're going to establish that you can catch this easy one and then you do your circuit.

Speaker 35 That's a great point by Chris.

Speaker 30 I've never seen that. You never see that.

Speaker 70 The Charger pick six.

Speaker 53 It's a pre-vent pick.

Speaker 16 You don't see it.

Speaker 70 But the Charger did go to the huddle before that play and they just all go, hi, Jinx, right?

Speaker 20 Like

Speaker 84 I'm going to go cover the guy.

Speaker 20 Don't worry about me. And then he almost picks six it.

Speaker 20 Don't over pursue.

Speaker 3 In Tua's meager defense.

Speaker 30 How many has been a lot of meager Tua defense?

Speaker 68 Okay, this is a meager one.

Speaker 3 Of those 1 in 16 against winning teams, how many game-winning drives has he almost had?

Speaker 20 Right?

Speaker 18 Because it feels like there's been a lot of almost game-winning drives.

Speaker 18 He leads the league in almost a game-winning drive.

Speaker 3 And then the defense lets it up, and you're like, oh, Tua had the moment.

Speaker 30 He has seven of those, and then it's just not there.

Speaker 19 I love Jalen Phillips.

Speaker 24 I love his story.

Speaker 26 He's such a nice man.

Speaker 60 How do you miss that?

Speaker 59 Right now, in sports, to me, locally, he's almost.

Speaker 14 He's almost.

Speaker 46 He's almost gotten 14 sacks this year.

Speaker 63 He's almost

Speaker 1 caused a gain of 40 yards right there.

Speaker 50 The only problem with that is that I don't think that people realize that Justin Herbert is kind of bigger than

Speaker 30 Jalen Phillips.

Speaker 20 Justin Herbert is bigger than that. I don't think people know that.

Speaker 71 I think they just see Jalen Phillips missed tackle and they don't understand that Herbert's bigger than Jalen Phillips.

Speaker 47 Isn't Herbert like 6'6, 260? He's a giant person.

Speaker 4 Tua has never

Speaker 11 and will never make that play.

Speaker 2 Right? Like that's it's that simple, right?

Speaker 2 The entire conversation can be distilled down to this, which is that Justin Herbert is physically capable and mentally capable of switching hands with that football, avoiding the sack, making the throw that leads to the huge gain to win.

Speaker 49 To a guy named Lad McConkey.

Speaker 20 And we can say all we want. He's good, man.
He's good. He shouldn't have shot.

Speaker 29 He's really good. He shouldn't be that good.

Speaker 15 He's got a shot at one point.

Speaker 29 He shouldn't have that name.

Speaker 39 He shouldn't be good with that name.

Speaker 42 Put it on the poll at Lebatard Show.

Speaker 50 In games of violence, do you ever fear someone named Lad McConkey?

Speaker 37 How is a Lad McConkie fast?

Speaker 48 He should be the mayor of Key West.

Speaker 80 That's another thing.

Speaker 43 Put it on the poll at Lebatard Show.

Speaker 44 Should Lad McConkey be the name of the mayor of Key West?

Speaker 47 It doesn't make sense.

Speaker 53 I mean,

Speaker 47 they target him 10 times a game.

Speaker 65 Like, I'd prefer to throw the ball to Keenan Allen, but it's because, oh, you guys do realize how how insane that juke was, right?

Speaker 67 You guys realize that there aren't that many players in the league who could actually break free in the open field when all the DVs in that huddle have been told, hey, hi, Jinx.

Speaker 74 Yeah.

Speaker 37 Prevent pick.

Speaker 36 You never see it.

Speaker 53 I want to talk about

Speaker 36 Stephen Ross's reaction on the field because he knows that the cameras are fixated on him and he almost played up his

Speaker 21 frustration there.

Speaker 81 The guy went down on the field to celebrate

Speaker 36 a season-saving victory, and it all unfolded in front of his eyes the way that most people at home thought it would.

Speaker 17 Most Dolphin fans in that stadium, I kind of felt like knew that was going to happen.

Speaker 36 And he was visibly frustrated. This image captures it, but after he walked off,

Speaker 36 he was playing up the fact that he was really pissed off.

Speaker 79 Guys, just so you understand that these are human beings, no matter how rich they are.

Speaker 24 This is the end of...

Speaker 78 the end of his life and career in business and sports.

Speaker 46 Like he's his window is what Jerry Jones's window is, and he does care about winning.

Speaker 23 He doesn't want to be this 25-year embarrassment.

Speaker 50 I replaced Robbie Heizen Gashula, and this is an unholy mess on my watch.

Speaker 92 I'm making tons and tons of money.

Speaker 25 It's been a great business deal, but most people think I don't care, don't know what I'm doing. I always hire clowns.
They always embarrass me.

Speaker 27 That yesterday, in every way, was an apocalypse that comes after the four before it

Speaker 40 for people who care, don't want to be embarrassment.

Speaker 58 Mike McDaniel will rebound somewhere as an offensive coordinator, but he doesn't want to be known as somebody who can't handle this job.

Speaker 33 Tua doesn't want to be known as someone who was gifted $250 million by a coach who made him a marionette who can play and lead the league in passing back when we believed the Dolphins were good.

Speaker 80 Now the whole thing is falling apart, like in a way that's super obvious and super embarrassing.

Speaker 78 And your quarterback in the press conference says, not me, it's leadership.

Speaker 40 Like that can mean anything.

Speaker 21 Well, he's one of the leaders.

Speaker 67 No, but it's not, he's one of the leaders.

Speaker 61 Like, you can't say it's a players-only meeting, and it's leadership.

Speaker 50 And when you said leadership the first time, we thought you were going to take out your coach.

Speaker 37 Leaders don't look around for other leaders.

Speaker 15 Yeah.

Speaker 4 He's not, he's, he's not the leader that the team named him to be if he is around a microphone openly questioning leadership.

Speaker 11 Team's missing Tyreek Hill. When he was a captain, a lot of this stuff wasn't going on, to be honest.
That's why we said before, hey, if he was a real leader, he wouldn't be a captain this year.

Speaker 11 And look, not a captain. And as soon as he's out of there, everything seems to be falling apart.

Speaker 48 I think I'm the only one here, apparently, who does not blame, and in fact, credits Tua for speaking out like he did. It was the frustration speaking.

Speaker 48 If his team doesn't blow that win that he had earned with an eight-for-eight drive, he's not saying any of that in the post-game. That was frustration speaking.

Speaker 48 And if he's right, if there were teammates who were late for the players-only meeting and just blew it off and missed that meeting, why shouldn't they be called out?

Speaker 48 Why shouldn't the player who missed that meeting be angry right now? Because he's looking at a mirror going, you're right, I did miss that meeting. Should have been there.

Speaker 11 But do you think that now those players after Tua has publicly called them out are like, you know what? I need to prove something to Tua. Because like Tua took out both the leadership.

Speaker 11 So we're thinking maybe coaching staff, maybe, you know, front office, whatever. He took out them and he took out the players.

Speaker 11 So he's really kind of taking everyone out but himself when he's having that conversation. And you're you're saying had they not blown that lead, he probably wouldn't have said that?

Speaker 11 Yeah, he probably wouldn't have, which is why it looks even more like an excuse.

Speaker 48 It's desperation. That's all it is.

Speaker 48 They're one and five. They're going nowhere.
They just had a heartbreaking.

Speaker 48 Think of the last two games. They blow a 17-0 lead against Bad Carolina.

Speaker 17 Who Dan ended their season after a victory.

Speaker 32 It's still over.

Speaker 4 Even though they had back-to-back.

Speaker 53 It's still over.

Speaker 84 Did you see what Baker did?

Speaker 39 They can't win that division.

Speaker 26 There's not a circumstance under which they'll win that division.

Speaker 23 If they don't win that division, their season's over.

Speaker 41 The rattler looks good, too.

Speaker 4 And on the two front, too, like,

Speaker 11 I mean, not that anyone would because they're all professionals, but like, once you start calling out your teammates, then all of a sudden I miss a block. You know what I mean?

Speaker 11 And then, like, he could easily get drilled because he pisses off the wrong person, and then we're back in concussion territory. Like, I don't really understand what he gains from what he did.

Speaker 3 if you could stop somebody from breaking in before they got inside your house why wouldn't you most old school systems only go off after somebody's already in your place opening your fridge petting your dog whatever at that point it's too late it's reactive simply safe is different it's proactive with this double layer of defense that helps stop crime before it even starts.

Speaker 3 First, their AI-powered cameras spot potential threats outside, not just in motion, but an actual person lurking around in the bushes, behind a tree, in a car, under the car, wherever they may be.

Speaker 3 Then live monitoring agents jump in right away. They talk to the person through the camera, let them know they're on video and that cops are getting called if they don't leave.

Speaker 3 That's how you stop crime before it starts. Personally, I trust Simply Safe to protect what matters most at my house, my wife, my daughter, my possessions, my things, my home, my safety, my peace.

Speaker 4 Don Lebatard.

Speaker 11 I may take it one step further.

Speaker 20 Wait a minute. We haven't waited.

Speaker 86 Wait a minute. You're getting sexier by the moment.

Speaker 65 Slow down, we haven't even gotten

Speaker 65 it.

Speaker 4 Jason Sanders, you're unnoticed.

Speaker 4 Oh my god.

Speaker 20 Come on in spite of him.

Speaker 86 Oh wow. I love you, Duke.

Speaker 1 This is the Don Lebatar show with the Stugats.

Speaker 83 If I can, what I would say to you is when you're asking a leader to be a leader in the hardest of positions, which is it's everyone for themselves now.

Speaker 33 Who's to blame for this? Everyone's going.

Speaker 25 Everyone's embarrassed.

Speaker 80 Everyone's laughing at us.

Speaker 74 Who's to blame?

Speaker 33 Generally in these spots, the quarterback just eats it, toughs his way through the headlines of I'll lie to your face, my protection has to be of my players.

Speaker 27 But this is why this is happening.

Speaker 66 I'm just going to read this to you because these are stats for why all of this is happening.

Speaker 79 The Dolphins are now 1-15 in their last 16 games against teams with winning records.

Speaker 80 Mike McDaniel is 11 and 18 in his past 29 games. Tua, like Billy said, 6-17 all-time in the 23 games against teams with winning records.

Speaker 60 The Dolphins haven't topped 30 points in any of their past 13 Tua games against winning teams.

Speaker 58 They're 2-11 in those games.

Speaker 33 So that's one set of stats.

Speaker 27 Now here's the other.

Speaker 26 The Dolphins were 19-5 coming into this season when scoring three touchdowns in the McDaniel era. They're now 1-4 this season when scoring three touchdowns.

Speaker 76 They need to score four touchdowns a game and be the best team of all time to beat Lamar Jackson in Baltimore and win a game on a miracle because unless they have the best offense in the league, the whole thing is broken.

Speaker 62 Like none of it works.

Speaker 70 You don't have value at quarterback anymore.

Speaker 14 You don't have the fast wide receiver anymore.

Speaker 65 You're going to use up Waddle and whatever's left of Waller.

Speaker 69 So the whole thing's broken if you're not a perfect offense.

Speaker 64 It's because the defense will allow any running back in the world to have 200 yards. Like any running back in the world, you can put back there.

Speaker 71 I bet on the wrong one yesterday, knowing the Chargers were going to have 200 yards.

Speaker 64 I thought Haddock was the starter.

Speaker 53 I didn't have

Speaker 20 whatever.

Speaker 2 Looking at Tua as the leader, it's crazy to think that ultimately he just said a couple weeks ago that he drinks water to prevent concussions.

Speaker 2 And that's the third worst thing that he's said in the last two weeks. But speaking of bad things said, Chris, we have anything with Dan on the Chiefs?

Speaker 40 They have ruined the entertainment value of Patrick Mahomes, ruined it.

Speaker 83 But he is a dink and dunk quarterback.

Speaker 64 I'm watching a quarterback who looks like all the other quarterbacks.

Speaker 91 That team's dead.

Speaker 20 Back to life.

Speaker 35 Back to life.

Speaker 11 You're going to force this car on Nick Wright that he doesn't even know that he's winning, which wasn't the bet. And I'm hilarious, actually.

Speaker 11 I'm wondering what it's going to cost Nick Wright to pay for parking for that car in New York.

Speaker 50 That's why it's such a great joke.

Speaker 4 That's why I want to give him the car without the transmission the bet was a white corvette that was the bet no factually inaccurate no no we agreed to that after he left yes but never was said at the same show i'm with you dan yeah we can that's funny but just between us so you know you're changing the bet but i'm i'm unlikely i'm unlikely to save money here like shipping a white corvette to him if it's greg cody's which i thought was the bet no i mean i would be so pissed if i were nick right

Speaker 74 so pissed.

Speaker 81 Because I have five grand coming my way.

Speaker 16 Not a car that becomes a problem.

Speaker 4 He'll get the joke.

Speaker 53 I think he'll laugh.

Speaker 46 It's a great joke.

Speaker 53 It's a great joke.

Speaker 42 And it'll cost me more than $5,000 to send the car without a transmission to ship it to him from where was it that you found it?

Speaker 88 In Ohio, Billy?

Speaker 11 Where'd you find it? In Illinois, I believe.

Speaker 84 That's not going to be cheap.

Speaker 20 That's all going to be worth more than $5,000.

Speaker 37 I'm sure when he hears that, it'll be like, okay, then that's

Speaker 16 what it does cost him more than $5,000.

Speaker 77 I'm giving him more value than $5,000 to get that sentimental white Corvette because Cody and Cody's mean so much to him.

Speaker 48 You're not going to be able to find my sentimental value.

Speaker 4 It wasn't even sentimental to Greg.

Speaker 20 He hated it.

Speaker 18 The sentimental value to this thing.

Speaker 7 This is good PR, though.

Speaker 4 Alpha announcing will be like, Cody sends Nick Wright a white Corvette.

Speaker 45 The reason it's, the reason everything in my head, you guys experienced a different thing than I did with that.

Speaker 37 That's a common theme from this segment.

Speaker 42 I asked Nick Wright something about why he's such a good gift giver.

Speaker 72 And he said he had gotten his father for his 75th birthday a beautiful old car that had all the thoughtful details in it.

Speaker 45 And then we started talking about Greg and the white Corvette.

Speaker 62 And that's how we landed on Nick Wright's coming on.

Speaker 79 What's the bet on the game?

Speaker 45 A white Corvette that we didn't think we could get. And then he's like, well, then just make it $5,000 if you're bored and have no creativity.

Speaker 20 No, I don't think that's how it works. That's how I remember it.

Speaker 20 That's how he remembers it.

Speaker 10 It was like, let's get some action. You're like, I'll do some action.

Speaker 12 He's like, five grand.

Speaker 10 And then you were just like, fine.

Speaker 20 But

Speaker 20 I'll give you points. But where'd the white Corvette?

Speaker 35 I thought you said, I'll give you points.

Speaker 38 So

Speaker 16 the white Corvette came up after, where we were like, hey, that would be a really funny joke. Too bad he didn't agree to that.

Speaker 11 The white Corvette came up before, because Greg was complaining before this show about the white Corvette. Then we were trying to get away from that.

Speaker 47 The segment started with him deciding that we should start the segment talking about whether or not Greg.

Speaker 23 He chose, I had the clumsy beginning where I'm telling him, what are you first?

Speaker 24 An old-timey radio guy, right?

Speaker 42 And so I was asking him to make a content decision on should we go to Erlene on a bad line

Speaker 42 to talk about this white Corvette.

Speaker 24 And so in my head, I thought we were betting a white Corvette.

Speaker 69 That's why I was asking Erlene this weekend, what's the VIN number on the old car so I can get him that white Corvette?

Speaker 48 She didn't tell me that. When are you calling my wife about a VIN number? How does that work?

Speaker 11 What else are you talking about?

Speaker 48 Seriously.

Speaker 33 I asked your son as well.

Speaker 67 I'm trying to get...

Speaker 53 I owe nothing to do.

Speaker 51 I woke up this morning knowing, grateful for a brawl that distracted people, and knowing I owed, I hated this, that I owed Nick Wright $5,000.

Speaker 24 And the way I'm going to pay it is with a white Corvette, whether he wants it or not.

Speaker 78 And I hope it doesn't have a transmission because

Speaker 56 I could say legally,

Speaker 58 rationally, that I paid my debt.

Speaker 48 I don't know about that. I think when you bet somebody $5,000,

Speaker 48 it's pretty much a cash bet.

Speaker 87 What's pretty much mean?

Speaker 10 And Dan's taking that that pretty much.

Speaker 20 He's taking that little leeway.

Speaker 38 That's it.

Speaker 38 To send him something that's going to cost me more than $5,000.

Speaker 21 It's a nice rationalization there.

Speaker 11 What year would you guesstimate your Corvette was, the white one?

Speaker 12 I asked my mom this. I believe she was a little unsure, but it was either 98 or 99.

Speaker 22 Berlin said we were looking for a 2,000 VIN number and that we're still looking for it because that is the sentimental Corvette I will take and send him if I can.

Speaker 58 But if I can't, then I'll be obligated to just send him the bad one because it's the only one I've got left.

Speaker 48 You know what else you can do is send him $5,000 in pennies.

Speaker 11 The only person

Speaker 3 who may have

Speaker 11 the only person who may have sentiment about this Corvette is the current owner of said Corvette because Greg didn't have sentiment towards it. It means absolutely nothing to Nick Wright.

Speaker 11 You seem to really have some sentiments about this Corvette for whatever.

Speaker 53 It's a good gift.

Speaker 38 It's a good gift.

Speaker 75 You can't dispute that it's a good gift.

Speaker 10 The audience would like it.

Speaker 48 They could have appreciated it more than I did.

Speaker 25 Well, but and we could go double or nothing here with a number of really high scores.

Speaker 33 For two core bets.

Speaker 59 We could make this bet be more and more dangerous all the way up until the Super Bowl, where I will continue to question whether Patrick Mahomes can be the offense he was with Tyreek Hill.

Speaker 91 That team's dead.

Speaker 32 You guys like the last two games, and I'd understand why it is you would say it's more representative of what this Chiefs team is than the last 18 games of Dink and Dunk that they gave us.

Speaker 58 But when they get hurt again, inevitably, because that sport hurts.

Speaker 15 This is spectacular from you, man.

Speaker 62 I'm going to win.

Speaker 20 The rare denial and doubling down.

Speaker 20 I'm going to win the bet because I'm banking on injuries.

Speaker 69 Look, I saw the Packers off.

Speaker 21 To prove our point, by the way, which was always, it's the injuries.

Speaker 52 I saw the Packers' offense look awfully good against that Detroit team on the road.

Speaker 15 I mean, that Detroit team.

Speaker 62 The Detroit team on the road.

Speaker 64 I'm going to end up being right here.

Speaker 20 They're going to get hurt again about us proving you're going to be right. Which Brent, the Packers, are you with the Packers have to do with that?

Speaker 84 You said you didn't say it. Now you're going to be right.

Speaker 11 The cheapest Corvette I see from the year 2000 is $13,000. So this fun game of yours is getting more pricey.

Speaker 4 That's right, Dan.

Speaker 11 I found a lot of personal growth in admitting when I'm wrong.

Speaker 11 No one does it more than Mike. No one.

Speaker 40 I will not admit I'm wrong after two games.

Speaker 48 You know what you're doing? You're obsessing on the fact that they can't be the same offense they were when Tyreek was flying down the field in his prime.

Speaker 56 They can't be the big play offense.

Speaker 20 Okay, so what? You said they were dead. They also could be a winning offense.
They won two Super Bowls since he left.

Speaker 48 They got a great coach. They got a really good underrated defense.
They can win a Super Bowl without Tyreek going to be a fight.

Speaker 59 So this is what you guys are doing now?

Speaker 40 I just want to be clear on this.

Speaker 20 What are we doing?

Speaker 62 Well, I want to be clear on this.

Speaker 40 I believe that if I take the field right now, I'm going to look really better than everyone in this room making the argument on behalf of the business.

Speaker 16 This is, yeah, coming from the maker that changed a $5,000 bet to a white Corvette.

Speaker 4 Yeah, go ahead and play with the rules.

Speaker 16 In this 18-game stretch, by the way, they made it to a Super Bowl.

Speaker 26 Yeah, because they're really, really good at the precision of working around their limitations.

Speaker 55 They've had a great many limitations, and twice they've gotten to the Super Bowl and had those limitations exposed once because the offensive line didn't work.

Speaker 80 You have not heard me say that Patrick Mahomes has been made a lesser quarterback by anything other than everything that's happened over the last 18 years.

Speaker 18 I also heard you not agree with us as we warned you, Dan, that's the issue.

Speaker 35 And you kept pushing and said, quote, this team is dead.

Speaker 91 That team's dead.

Speaker 57 Yeah, that part hurts me.

Speaker 33 I meant the offense.

Speaker 30 I also had a detailed thing really.

Speaker 20 That's the point we were making. Our group,

Speaker 2 by the way, said that Dan and Nick agreed to a $5,000 bet. And then Dan said, want to throw in a Corvette? And then

Speaker 11 Nick just laughed in your face.

Speaker 2 So, no.

Speaker 54 What do you mean he laughed in my face?

Speaker 2 He laughed, and then Mike suggested a host swap, and and neither of you agreed to that. So, the only thing agreed on is $5,000.

Speaker 48 Yeah, but the laughter is tacit approval.

Speaker 12 I'm being told we have a one-minute replay of it if we'd like to watch it and then dissect it.

Speaker 40 All right, let's hit it. You got to go on that note.

Speaker 22 You think a lot of people think that right now?

Speaker 60 You think that a lot of people...

Speaker 89 The two and a half point favorites, Dan, they're at home. They have the best player in the league.
You know, right now, Dano. Right now, Dano.

Speaker 11 How about this?

Speaker 3 Just Chiefs, Lions, straight up.

Speaker 7 Set the amount.

Speaker 89 I can do a little arbitrage with your friends at DraftKings.

Speaker 49 Oh, I'll bet it on the other side plus the two and a half to look for a little juicy middle.

Speaker 20 All right, let's do it.

Speaker 4 What do you want to do?

Speaker 33 Let's do it right now.

Speaker 42 Tell me what the stakes are on this.

Speaker 50 Make the bet right now.

Speaker 42 Let's do it. Let's team up right here.
We're going to tell me how I have to do that so that I can make the stakes something that's worth it to you. I believe that Detroit is going to beat Kansas City.

Speaker 89 They're all putting up five, so five grand.

Speaker 20 Okay. All right.
Okay.

Speaker 35 Really? Yes. 5,000.

Speaker 30 I get the Jeeps even.

Speaker 72 It just went straight winner.

Speaker 88 Yeah.

Speaker 53 Jeeps, Lions. Yes.

Speaker 59 I'll give you the points.

Speaker 20 No, damn. You're terrible.

Speaker 53 You're such a bad negotiator.

Speaker 20 What's going on? I don't get points.

Speaker 88 They're the favorites. We're just doing straight winners.

Speaker 48 Straight winners. 5K.

Speaker 84 Yes.

Speaker 20 Done.

Speaker 70 You want to throw in a white Corvette?

Speaker 52 Yeah, I thought the white Corvette was the bet.

Speaker 48 I think he approved when he smiled.

Speaker 49 I remember that being after he was gone.

Speaker 63 But it came with $5,000 and the white Corvette.

Speaker 69 I thought that that's the bet. I thought we were making the white Corvette bet.
I thought that's what we were doing.

Speaker 10 Is a laugh, is laughter accepting a bet?

Speaker 11 So now you owe him a car and $5,000.

Speaker 4 It seems like that video.

Speaker 2 Can we have bonuses instead?

Speaker 93 There's something special about winter in Colorado. The snow is deeper, adventures feel bigger, and our natural beauty inspires every traveler.
Everything shines a little brighter. Come to Colorado.

Speaker 93 Come to life.
