Transcript

[Dan LeBatard]

You're listening to Giraffe Kings Network. Ever since switching to T Mobile, something weird has been happening. I get to cut lines.

[Stugotz]

Oh, right this way.

[Dan LeBatard]

Who, me? I can stream shows at 30,000ft and I was able to buy reserve tickets for my favorite band.

[Stugotz]

It's not just you.

[Mina Kimes]

I had a friend who was a bad food football player back in high school. Couldn't run that football by us, so bought a team called the Cowboys. Saw him the other night in this bathroom stall. I was walking in, he was walking out. He came up to me and explained he has a few kinks and all. He kept talking about Scorios.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, but just about. By Glorios.

[Stugotz]

Careful where you put your eyes.

[Chris Cody]

Glorios Glorious.

[Stugotz]

Stugat said in my ear. I don't know if it was my ear. Everyone's ears. That song will always make me move. And then he added, no matter how shitty the lyrics.

[Chris Cody]

That was good.

[Stugotz]

I mean, Jeremy, hell of an effort. I appreciate that you keep taking these big giant hacks. Musically, it's very vulnerable and you're doing it very quick. We've been arguing with each other during the break because Greg Cody says Bud Grant is a perfect football name. But he also says that Bud Grant is cheating because his real name is Harry Peter Grant and no one would trust Harry Peter Grant as their football coach.

[Greg Cody]

No.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. When I was looking up his real name, I learned that Bud Grant, hall of Fame NFL coach, used to play in the NBA. I never knew that, huh?

[Stugotz]

But Bud Grant is a perfect football name.

[Chris Cody]

Yes, it is.

[Greg Cody]

But he changed his name to Bud to make it Harry.

[Stugotz]

Harry Peter Grant is an imperfect football name. Right, right. Billy was saying during the break that he would go to a Dr. McDaniel.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Billy Gill]

Everybody knows that.

[Greg Cody]

General doctor.

[Billy Gill]

Ooh, general practitioner.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah.

[Billy Gill]

That's a good question. I don't know if. I don't know if Dr. McDaniel's getting that.

[Gabe]

All right, so Gabe Gibran played for the Bears in the 50s, and then he coached for the Bears in the 60s and the 70s. But he also coached for a team called the Chicago Winds, which was a WFL team. Greg, do you remember the WFL in 1975?

[Chris Cody]

I do, yeah. I think. I think a young Donald Trump owned a team for a time.

[Stugotz]

Is that the USFL you're talking about?

[Chris Cody]

It could be, yeah. I mix up all those fls.

[Stugotz]

Okay, very good.

[Greg Cody]

That's definitely what you're talking.

[Stugotz]

That was an expertise. You went there. A lot of FL's that you just baffled. Look, he's tired from Sunday night.

[Chris Cody]

Too many NFLs.

[Greg Cody]

It's 1120.

[Billy Gill]

It's true.

[Stugotz]

So you think that Herschel Walker and Donald Trump were on this. The team?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, they were teammates.

[Gabe]

Well, they tried to hire or tried to sign Joe Namath. That was like Chicago Wind's claim to fame. And I guess he said no.

[Billy Gill]

Trump and Herschel Walker being aligned is crazy to you?

[Stugotz]

Being aligned in the 50s and 60s is the crazy part. To me, it's not.

[Chris Cody]

Terrible name, by the way. Chicago Wind.

[Stugotz]

Better Time for America at LeBatard show. Is the Wind terrible name for a sports team?

[Chris Cody]

If you beat that team, you're breaking Wind wins.

[Dan LeBatard]

Plural.

[Gabe]

It's like a Windy City thing.

[Chris Cody]

Correct. I got that.

[Stugotz]

God, I can't believe how low common denominator Cody and Stugats have decided to make the last 15 minutes. You're breaking wind.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. Letting a pet.

[Mina Kimes]

Nobody calls it either of those things.

[Billy Gill]

He's right.

[Chris Cody]

Wait a minute. Breaking Wind is a common exception.

[Greg Cody]

It's not standard.

[Stugotz]

Yes.

[Mina Kimes]

People know what that means, but people aren't saying that I just broke wind.

[Chris Cody]

Everybody says he broke wind.

[Gabe]

Yeah, that's what my grammy used to say.

[Dan LeBatard]

Thank you.

[Chris Cody]

That's a gaki.

[Gabe]

She also smoked sugars instead of diabetes.

[Chris Cody]

Did she really?

[Gabe]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

Wow.

[Chris Cody]

See there? That's verification.

[Billy Gill]

Thank you.

[Chris Cody]

Thank you. No, thank you, Jess. I appreciate you saying that.

[Billy Gill]

Imagine calling a team the Chicago Toots. No one would do it.

[Chris Cody]

The Pets. Chicago Pets. That should be a nickname for a sports team.

[Billy Gill]

Which one?

[Chris Cody]

What's more popular in America than pets? Everybody has a dog and a cat. We love pets. No team has ever been named the.

[Stugotz]

Pets for the uninitiated in the Cody household since Greg Cody was Very young, a million years ago. The way they refer to their farts is not merely pets, but it's because it rhymes. Someone in the house let a pet. That is not breaking wind. That is just the rhyming let of a pet.

[Chris Cody]

Right.

[Stugotz]

And it's only called a pet so he can say that a let has been pet.

[Chris Cody]

What? What?

[Stugotz]

Or a pet has been let.

[Billy Gill]

You're confusing.

[Chris Cody]

That has been let.

[Stugotz]

Excuse me. I'm sorry. I got. I'm sorry. I got so. I got so confused. The rhythmic wonder that is. You've been saying this for how long in your life?

[Chris Cody]

It's a Venmo. Fine. By the way, that misspeak by you double.

[Stugotz]

Okay. Why is it double?

[Greg Cody]

It's Tuesday.

[Chris Cody]

You denigrated the pet.

[Billy Gill]

Do you have it?

[Mina Kimes]

Back in my day.

[Stugotz]

By the way.

[Billy Gill]

Tuesday.

[Chris Cody]

I don't know.

[Billy Gill]

Well, he did Sunday.

[Greg Cody]

Well, he worked Sunday, so today's really his Wednesday. Cut him a break. Yeah.

[Billy Gill]

Greg, you know, you mentioned that pets are very popular in America, and you're right. Which makes me wonder why team names aren't like pet names. Like we always go with like a bulldog or like some sort of vicious cat.

[Chris Cody]

Cat. Right.

[Billy Gill]

We never have like the Golden Doodles.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. Which is Charlie.

[Mina Kimes]

The Chicago. About the Chicago dogs.

[Chris Cody]

Get it. Because I like that pets. And I think you're onto something.

[Mina Kimes]

Thank you.

[Chris Cody]

That's good. Dog pound.

[Greg Cody]

What?

[Billy Gill]

Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

By the way, I want to hark back for just a second. We were talking about changing flat tires.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah.

[Chris Cody]

I want to tell you a fact and you're going to think I'm kidding.

[Greg Cody]

Okay.

[Chris Cody]

Queen Elizabeth ii, who we just lost. I think she lived to be almost 100, didn't she? She could change a tire because she was a trained mechanic who drove a military truck in World War II.

[Dan LeBatard]

Wow.

[Greg Cody]

Wow.

[Chris Cody]

So I just picture her changing a tire and it's pretty. It's pretty neat.

[Mina Kimes]

You got her like sliding out from underneath the car.

[Chris Cody]

Yes. Right? Yeah. Changing the oil.

[Stugotz]

Lizzie. Tires. I want you guys to look something up for me because this was told to me the other day and I didn't believe it and I didn't look it up, but I think it might be fact that there was a time in royalty where there were a queen's or royalty's handlers, people who were employed to simply take the blame if the queen or princess let a pet. People who were under the employ of the. Of royalty of the government and that their job. I don't know what this job was like, what it was called or what it is.

[Gabe]

That were the qualifications video department.

[Stugotz]

But they were just.

[Greg Cody]

It's called stugouts.

[Stugotz]

They are just meant to absorb the farts. What. Can you guys find some more information on this for me, please? Because I'd like to. I'd like. I'd like to be able to close the loop on this if this is what we're going to be talking about. But the letting of a pet. How long has this been said in the household? Since.

[Chris Cody]

Since I was a child.

[Stugotz]

So it was hand me down through the family. Wasn't even yours. It was something that your parents.

[Chris Cody]

Oh, yeah, my parents used to say that, Bill.

[Stugotz]

So, yeah.

[Chris Cody]

Wild Bill and Root.

[Stugotz]

Do we know if it goes. If it goes back before them? This is the family heirloom in the Cody household. The. Because no one else says this corre.

[Chris Cody]

No, I'm trying to pass it along to my offspring. And Christopher refuses to indoctrinate my granddaughter.

[Stugotz]

But there's no one else. There's no one else who does this. Right. When. When Billy says toots and whatnot. Do we have an assortment of colorful language that other people in here have used around the kids for what? This is or is letting a pet the exclusive domain of Greg Cody, never to be used by anybody else? It's not a common phrase of any kind. Correct.

[Billy Gill]

I mean, it could be, but Christopher doesn't want to pass it.

[Greg Cody]

Right.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. He's killed it.

[Mina Kimes]

I've said pet to my daughter, but she's more. She says toot whenever she farts. She's a big. I just tooted.

[Chris Cody]

Well, you gotta try harder with the pet thing. I will. And pet works on a different. A couple of different levels. Quick example. If I let a pet in the house and Earlene's like Greg, I'm like, charlie did that. Jumping Charlie. Because Charlie is a pet letter like a lot of dogs. And it's very noticeable. You know, it's a pungent.

[Greg Cody]

Right.

[Chris Cody]

Smell. And so I am free to blame the dog for what I have discreetly done.

[Greg Cody]

Right.

[Mina Kimes]

What does that have to do with it being called a pet, though?

[Gabe]

You're letting the pet take the blame.

[Chris Cody]

Yes, that's exactly. That's what I mean.

[Mina Kimes]

You could let it toot. You can blame a toot on a dog, too. You're acting like calling it a pet is. Now I can blame my dog on it because I call it a pet.

[Chris Cody]

Because pets let pets. Yeah, pets let pets. And my wife knows that.

[Billy Gill]

Right.

[Chris Cody]

You know, sometimes she'll remark how Charlie just made a big smell.

[Greg Cody]

Do you ever let a Pet and then blame the dog. Instantly put it on the pole.

[Stugotz]

Juju at Lebatard. I do have a finney at Lebatard show. Have you ever blamed bodily odor on one of your animals at Lebatard show?

[Mina Kimes]

I can't find the story that you were talking about, Dan, regarding royalty and blaming farts on others, but there is a story of Queen Elizabeth apparently farting and then blaming the horses.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, I'm with her.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, same theory.

[Chris Cody]

Same theory.

[Greg Cody]

Classic.

[Gabe]

Has your dog ever farted, Greg? And your wife doesn't believe that it wasn't you?

[Chris Cody]

All the time.

[Greg Cody]

Every time.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, all the time.

[Mina Kimes]

Has mom ever blamed a pet on the pet?

[Chris Cody]

Women don't fart. You know that.

[Mina Kimes]

Yeah, mine does.

[Chris Cody]

Whoa.

[Billy Gill]

Oh, boy.

[Chris Cody]

You're gonna hear about that.

[Stugotz]

Oh, man. She doesn't listen.

[Chris Cody]

Okay. Thank God Lance is going to get back there.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, we'll get back to her.

[Chris Cody]

By the way, as a racehorse owner, I'm going to testify. Horses are very, very flatulent.

[Billy Gill]

Really?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, Very, very flatulent.

[Stugotz]

Put it on the poll at Lebatard Show. Do you know that the horses are very, very flatulent at Lebatard show?

[Billy Gill]

I saw a thing, Greg, the other day talking about transporting horses, and it said that they do enjoy the expressway.

[Stugotz]

Oh. So we finally got. We got. Finally.

[Chris Cody]

Thank you.

[Mina Kimes]

You said the opposite.

[Stugotz]

No, he said that. That was me. I was the one. I was the one questioning whether or not horses like things.

[Billy Gill]

Reader's Digest.

[Stugotz]

We were talking about, though, general racing. Because Greg also maintains that they like being whipped so that they run fast.

[Chris Cody]

No, I've never said that. But there's a way to crop the horse that is humane. They have tough hide. Keep that in mind. It's like jumping Charlie Ice I gingerly and gently and for fun. Like, I'll crack Charlie right on the ass. He loves that. Dogs love that. They like to be needed on the hind quarters.

[Greg Cody]

I have the animals who fart the most. Cows, number one. Horses are. Number three, termites. An upset. Number two.

[Mina Kimes]

What? No way.

[Chris Cody]

Talk about I don't pet. Wow. Small termites.

[Billy Gill]

Do you think if horses let a pet while they're racing, it helps them?

[Chris Cody]

I think they do all the time.

[Billy Gill]

Turbo boost.

[Stugotz]

All right, all right. You know what? The conversation wasn't dumb enough before. Yeah. That plume of smoke to it, I.

[Mina Kimes]

Feel like it's like a net neutral. Because, like, I feel like the three seconds before the fart, they, like, o, I got something. But then when they fart, they, like, catch up to whatever they are.

[Chris Cody]

They speed up. That's why they call it gas.

[Billy Gill]

Yeah, like Mario Kart.

[Chris Cody]

Right?

[Greg Cody]

Press the gas.

[Chris Cody]

Exactly. Zy.

[Gabe]

Termites.

[Stugotz]

Termites is what I was saying. Like, termites is upset. It's just. It really is all of us.

[Gabe]

How do you measure that all.

[Stugotz]

What a bad job.

[Chris Cody]

What.

[Stugotz]

What do you do for a living? Measured termite pets.

[Mina Kimes]

Imagine, like, you're an exterminator the first time you hear one. Like, what was that you.

[Stugotz]

I need more information on this. Like, Ron McGill doesn't know that, right? If I asked Ron McGill. Hey, Ron. Termite gassy. There's no. He doesn't know this, right? This is a.

[Gabe]

He probably does.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah.

[Gabe]

The term. The exterminator's wife, Chris, is probably like, no way. I know that was you.

[Jeremy]

Honey.

[Mina Kimes]

I swear.

[Stugotz]

Jess, has this happened around Willow? Does Willow get blamed for pets in the house?

[Gabe]

Oh, all the time. But she. She has a very clean diet. Except for the days when she comes to work and people feed her Chick Fil A fries, and then all bets are off.

[Stugotz]

Yeah. You got to be.

[Gabe]

No more of that.

[Greg Cody]

Greg, Termites would be a great name for a team, right?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah.

[Greg Cody]

Toronto Termites.

[Chris Cody]

Yes. I love that.

[Billy Gill]

Has to be a tea city.

[Stugotz]

What is the weakest of the animals? Like, there is a team called the Banana Slugs. That's not an animal. But, like, in terms of weak animals, when Greg Cody mentions that all MA are ferocious in some form, obviously Organ Ducks are not terribly ferocious. But what is the. What is the weakest of the sports nicknames that involves an animal that's wildly unimpressive?

[Mina Kimes]

I was going to go with the color brown. Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp.

[Billy Gill]

And a slug is an animal.

[Greg Cody]

I mean a cardinal.

[Chris Cody]

Cardinal cardinals are mean birds.

[Billy Gill]

Are they?

[Mina Kimes]

I would whoop a cardinal.

[Gabe]

You mean the color cardinal?

[Chris Cody]

Cardinals and blue jays are known in the, you know, flying kingdom.

[Greg Cody]

How about a pelican?

[Chris Cody]

You mean. Yeah. Pelicans are sort of goofy looking.

[Mina Kimes]

Stanford Tree.

[Greg Cody]

Sort of goofy looking?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah. Are they still named the Stanford Tree? No way.

[Gabe]

That's the name of, like, their band mascot. It's like this little annoying tree that dances around and makes fun of everyone. He's a little jerk.

[Stugotz]

Cardinal, singular, is the color cardinals. Is. Is the bird.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah.

[Mina Kimes]

Pepperdine's mascot is a wave. But waves can be strong. No, not someone waving Daddy.

[Chris Cody]

That's what I thought you meant.

[Billy Gill]

Well, Tampa Bay changed their team name to the Rays, but not the Devil Rays, just the ray of light, which is ridiculous. Come on.

[Chris Cody]

They get afraid of that. You know, somebody from a church said, why are you glorifying the devil and they change the name.

[Billy Gill]

Probably someone that survived a plane crash.

[Chris Cody]

Exactly.

[Greg Cody]

Zagak.

[Chris Cody]

Zagak.

[Mina Kimes]

Purdue. Purdue's just a guy named Pete.

[Gabe]

He's creepy, though. He's killed a lot of people.

[Mina Kimes]

Turns out that termite farts contain methane and termites apparently produce 1 to 3% of all of our methane gas emissions. So termite farts are causing climate change?

[Billy Gill]

You should ask Dr. Ben Dover the next time you go about this, Greg.

[Chris Cody]

I'm going to. Wow, that's interesting.

[Stugotz]

Purdue Pete is creepy.

[Greg Cody]

It really is.

[Stugotz]

Why is that? How is it that you've created a mascot? There aren't a lot of other mascots that are creepy. Right. That you would describe as Friar.

[Gabe]

He's creepy. So creepy. Pete's definitely got bodies in the closet. Yeah, he's got, like, witty vibes.

[Stugotz]

Who. Who else in the mascot industry gives off creep?

[Gabe]

Because Billy McBean.

[Greg Cody]

That's a good one.

[Stugotz]

I almost thought of him as cartoonish.

[Billy Gill]

What was the big baby the pelicans had for a little bit?

[Gabe]

Yeah, King baby cake.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, that was a little creepy.

[Stugotz]

See, that was creepy. That baby was creepy. That's a good selection right there. You don't get. We can't. We can't come up with five creepy mascots, can we? If we go history of sports, the.

[Chris Cody]

Oregon Ducks mascot is very creepy.

[Billy Gill]

That's Donald Duck. How have they gotten away with that?

[Gabe]

They had to get copyright, I think, permission. Billy.

[Billy Gill]

Really?

[Gabe]

I think I saw like a whole tick tock about this recently.

[Chris Cody]

I'm sure they did. Ohio State's mascot is very Brutus. Yeah, very creepy with the big wide head. Very, very creepy.

[Gabe]

I've never heard of Ohio State.

[Mina Kimes]

[Dan LeBatard]

Hey, you saw that car yet?

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, sold it to Carvana.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, I thought you were selling to that guy.

[Chris Cody]

The guy who wanted to pay me in foreign currency, no interest over 36 months. Yeah, no.

[Mina Kimes]

Carvana gave me an offer in minutes.

[Chris Cody]

Picked it up and paid me on the spot. It was so convenient.

[Dan LeBatard]

Just like that.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah.

[Dan LeBatard]

No hassle?

[Stugotz]

None.

[Dan LeBatard]

That is super convenient. Sell your car to Carvana and swap. Hassle for convenience.

[Mina Kimes]

Pick up these mail flags.

[Stugotz]

Don LeBatard.

[Dan LeBatard]

Did you get lost on the way to Home Depot today?

[Gabe]

Dan? Like, what?

[Dan LeBatard]

What's going on with the platform Stugats.

[Jeremy]

But do you look like you're about.

[Dan LeBatard]

To ask me to, like, check the oil on my car or, like, come over and like, look around and point things in my house that need to be fixed?

[Billy Gill]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the stugats.

[Stugotz]

Happy to see Mina Kimes here. We've got to get maximum information out of her. Everybody wants some football information. Also need to tell people that she's got a live show in February in which she is raising funds. All of the money is going to help people in the Palisades, so we will talk to her about that as well. But before we get started here, Mina, the question that we were talking about before you came on. In Greg Cody's household, when he or someone else has farted since going back to his parents, they call it the letting of a pet. The letting of a pet. Has your family decided how they're going to handle this around and with your child?

[Dan LeBatard]

Wait, wait. Why is it called the letting of a pet?

[Chris Cody]

I think it's a gentle way to say fart, you know, like my mother would go, who let a pet.

[Greg Cody]

Oh, like.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like the sound.

[Greg Cody]

Maybe.

[Dan LeBatard]

I'm just trying to understand the.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, don't try to make sense of it. Just try and bring it in your own household and give us anything good you've got there. Because Billy was arguing vigorously on behalf of the toot. The toot around children just call it a toot.

[Chris Cody]

Toot.

[Stugotz]

Yeah, the toot. And I didn't know whether. Whether anything in your household had a name.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, it is just farts. But I. We have a little bit. We don't have any real husband and I. Parenting disagreements yet. Our child is too young to make difficult decisions around. Right. Like when it comes to actually discipline and things like that. But he does do something that is concerning to me and I fear will breed bad habits, which is. Whenever my kid farts, my husband just applauds. And I think now he thinks it's something because at this point, it's just all Pavlovian. Everything he thinks is just in response to what sort of reaction it engenders. And I'm worried he's going to come away thinking this is a good thing.

[Chris Cody]

Well, it is.

[Greg Cody]

I mean, you got to get it out.

[Stugotz]

No, but that is. I think that might be some bad dadding. There might be some formative scars there on. All of a sudden you've got a fourth grader that can't stop farting in the classro because dad used to applaud it.

[Chris Cody]

He's not a guy you want to play. Not a guy you want to take into a crowded theater with a lot of applause.

[Stugotz]

I wanted to ask you. Mina Osiris Torrance was quoted as saying on the last fourth and five play of the Chiefs, they set it up. It was like they were waiting to get in that situation all game to bring that one pressure to hear that from the Bills locker room. I. I winced on behalf of the Bills on that one. The center just giving it up. Yeah. In a game where the Chiefs have won 17 times by one SC. That's how they do it.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah. It was so crazy. When that happened too, because Steve Sagala, the Chiefs defense coordinator, we always talk about how great he is, right? But I also also think. And it manifests itself in the creativity and timing and strangeness of some of these pressures. But I also think that he, he almost sequences them like an offensive coordinator. Like how we think of Kyle Shanahan where he's calling this run to set up this, you know, play action pass later and then he's going to use the same formation and I think Spagnolo us similar things because on that drive the previous play, they 0 blitz them. The Bills had the right call, was a screen to Amari Cooper. Just unfortunately he tripped and didn't get the first down and it really looked like they were going to zero him again. And I think Allen thought he would have the shallow cross and they just looked totally unprepared for what ended up happening. And it was a reminder that the chief defensive coordinator not becoming a head coach has been such a pivotal part of this dynasty.

[Stugotz]

We were talking before you came on about how to do the measurements on which of these coaches are actually going to be able to bring leadership in a league where McCarthy is still coveted somehow. And I wouldn't have thought that McCarthy would be coveted anymore, not with the young kids coming up. So which are the hires that you're looking at that you're excited by because you think those people are bringing something that other people can't bring?

[Dan LeBatard]

I mean, I am really excited about the Ben Johnson hire in Chicago because I don't think. And Dominique and I kind of disagree about this sometimes. I don't think it's like a knee jerk. You got to hire the hot young coordinator with the best offense. I understand that sometimes that doesn't work. Sometimes you want more of a CEO type coach or defensive minded head coach. But watching that offense in Detroit the last couple years and then watching what Caleb had to deal with this year, I'm really interested in seeing like a more quarterback friendly offense for him. And I think it's going to be really successful.

[Gabe]

Counterpoint, it's the Bears.

[Dan LeBatard]

So how many teams can you say that? Like when, when people are like, hey, I'm really hopeful, like this Jags coach is going to really get the most out of Trevor list. And people go, excuse me, it's the Jaguars. Or like what percentage of teams can you actually pull that for?

[Greg Cody]

I can answer that. You could say it for 40 years. I've been saying it for 40 years.

[Gabe]

The jets, the Jaguars, the Bears, those ones for sure.

[Dan LeBatard]

The Dolphins do I like your coach tire, Aaron.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, so do I. Just because he wants to be there. I mean, that's a good starting point.

[Dan LeBatard]

I know he came out in that press conference, he was like, buckle up your seatbelts. I was like, all right. A little bit of a strange image because you're a jet and is a dread encountering turbulence if you have the seatbelt. But then he was like, this is jets football. And I'm like, eric, like, you know what jets football connotes, right? And he said it like it was a good thing.

[Chris Cody]

Mina, New York Jets Were the Raiders desperate or smart to make Pete Carroll the oldest coach in history?

[Dan LeBatard]

I think smart in a lot of ways, like with these coaches when they're hired. I always give this sort of cowardly caveat. I don't know if he's going to be a good leader, but it's true. We really don't know with a lot of these guys if they're going to be the next Sean McVeigh or insert, I don't know, Urban Meyer. Well, we knew about Urban Meyer, but I think with Carol, the advantage you have is like, we already know the guy is like an unbelievable leader. He is beloved by players. I also think, you know, he has a proven track record with the young quarterback. He's very, very smart at coaching defense. The only concern I would have is if you're the Raiders and you're drafting a young quarterback, how long is he going to be the head coach? But other than that, I thought it was a pretty good hire.

[Gabe]

Are the Raiders one of those teams too that you can kind of be like, eh, yeah, yeah, people do that.

[Dan LeBatard]

How many games can you not do that? I guess like the four remaining playoff teams or.

[Gabe]

I'll make a list. I'll get back to you.

[Stugotz]

Let's play for Mina. Jerry Jones talking here. Mina, what is your reaction to this sound right here?

[Chris Cody]

There's a very low percentage of this that is smiles and glory holds very low.

[Stugotz]

Let's play the. Let's play. Let's play the longer version for Mina here so that she can fully sink into it.

[Chris Cody]

For me, it's a reminder. I too have been here 23 years and it is a reminder. I've been here when it was glory hole days and I've been here when it. And so having said that, I want me some glory hole. The rough times that you have with sport, everybody has everybody. You can't really play unless you have some hard times. But it is the absolute glory hole to have that elusive win to be the champion.

[Stugotz]

Mina, do you believe that Jerry Jones is brilliant?

[Dan LeBatard]

Is that the question? I think he's very old and maybe there's an old timey definition of that term. This has actually happened with Jerry Jones before where he's used a term and everybody was like wait, what? And then it turned out to be something that was like, no, that's what it is.

[Stugotz]

It's gold or drilling or something. It's something. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's not how any meant something.

[Greg Cody]

Different when he was a kid.

[Stugotz]

Even Greg Cody. Yes. Who is 70. Even Greg Cody knew better than to use that. Like whatever information Jerry Jones has on that word. We called the Cowboys, we asked them, has someone told Jerry this? And they're like, no, they're all too afraid to tell.

[Dan LeBatard]

What a great though like microcosm of the Dallas Cowboys in general. Right. Like stuck in the past and two people are too afraid to tell the owner.

[Stugotz]

What do you find to be most interesting about this Super Bowl?

[Dan LeBatard]

I think the fact, first of all the coaching matchup is really fascinating. Really. Like for remember in the previous or a couple questions ago when I said oh, I can't wait to see this young brilliant offensive mind, you know, Ben Johnson with. And I really do think, think that that's going to work out. But then you look at the super bowl and it's like a bunch of old dogs. I mean minus Kellen Moore, it's Andy Reid, Vic Fangio, Steve Spagnolo, old brilliant coaches. And I think that that's cool. I think the battle between Reed and Fangio in particular is really intriguing to me. I think you got one team with the best quarterback and then you have one team that clearly has a better team in the Philadelphia Eagles. That's interesting to me because it always sort of of test the importance of the quarterback position. Not that Patrick Mahomes is a team that he has good players, but I'm just saying like the Eagles are on paper the better team. But I suspect a lot of people are going to pick the Chiefs just because they have the better quarterback.

[Gabe]

I'd say that teams you can sort of offhandedly dismiss are the Bears, the Raiders, the jets, the Browns, the Jags, Carolina, the Dolphins and the Giants.

[Stugotz]

It's a good list.

[Greg Cody]

It is hell of a list.

[Gabe]

Teams you can't dismiss anymore. Commander's Bucks lie.

[Dan LeBatard]

But people don't do that with the Giants. People like, like when someone says oh it seems like you know the shitter Sanders gonna be great there. People aren't like excuse me sir, Okay, I think it's the Giants.

[Gabe]

I think my.

[Dan LeBatard]

You have to imagine. Can somebody use that voice?

[Gabe]

I live with a Giants fan who dismisses every positive thought I've ever tried to, like, offer him about the Giants. I'm like, oh, but they should understand. Oh, this Malik Neighbors is really good. He's like, no, you're wrong. They're terrible. There have always been bad. Even the super bowl teams were bad. They're the worst team ever. I'm like, okay, fine, you're right.

[Greg Cody]

He missed the glory days.

[Gabe]

I mean, Glory Hole.

[Mina Kimes]

Glory Holes.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you.

[Dan LeBatard]

Glory Hole would be a great name for. Well, I'm sure that there are bars named after it, but like a stadium, like a college football stadium, like, you know, come to the.

[Mina Kimes]

The Glory Hole.

[Greg Cody]

The Hole.

[Dan LeBatard]

Glory Hole. Where legends are made. Come on by. You never know who's on the other side story.

[Stugotz]

Oh, you want to keep going? Please do. You're all done. Okay, excellent. So the. The. I asked this question of Diana Rossini before, poorly, but how many offensive Eagles are better at their jobs than Jalen hurts is at his job? How many people. And this. I don't even mean this as a slight on Jalen Hurts. It's just to illustrate.

[Greg Cody]

It feels like a slight.

[Stugotz]

No, but it's just to illustrate how loaded a team that it is. I'm really asking, Mina, how many people do for the Eagles on offense their jobs better than Jalen does? Meaning no insult to Jalen. Jalen.

[Dan LeBatard]

Well, the way you phrased it is insulting to him, the way I think. But the actual intent of the question is how many people rank, like, higher in their positions across the league than you would rank Jalen hurts quarterback. And it is not actually about Jalen because, you know, I think everyone boosts at minimum, like a top 15 quarterback. It's really about the Eagles being an all star team, which is what you're alluding to. Right? Like multiple positions on the offensive line. They have top. Some top one, but top five players. A.J. brown is top five receiver. Dallas Goddard, maybe top five tight end. He's a little bit out of it at this point. Saquon Barkley, top one or two running back. That's ridiculous. So you're looking at at least like four or five players, Dan, who are like all pro Pro bowl level at their positions.

[Greg Cody]

Mina, let me try it this way, because Greg and I were having this discussion about Jalen Hurts. In a weird world, if the Eagles could decide to play in the super bowl and they had to choose one of these guys to Sit. Jalen Hurts or Saquon Barkley? Which guy would they choose?

[Dan LeBatard]

That's such a good. You're so good at this.

[Greg Cody]

That's such a good question.

[Dan LeBatard]

How has first take never done that?

[Chris Cody]

I don't know.

[Dan LeBatard]

Hurts. I think they go, well, well, Mina.

[Stugotz]

Look, the answer's sake. Mina. I just saw what happened to the Dolphins, okay? This has been an amazing thing to watch happen in my lifetime. I just saw what happened to the Dolphins when they had to go to their backup quarterback. The fact that Eagles team in a previous incarnation with a different coach beat Tom Brady and thumped him over the head with Super Bowl MVP backup quarterback Nick Foles. The fact that this team can win Super Bowls while hiding their quarterback.

[Dan LeBatard]

And. But that's such. It's. The comparison to Miami is so great because it shows you it's not really about the quarterbacks. Like the fact that the Miami Dolphins offense fell apart without Tua doesn't mean that. Oh my God, Tua's worth every penny. Although I think you certainly see his value to the offense in some ways plays. It shows you how horribly constructed the offense is. Right? I mean, you watch that offense. I've seen Tyler Huntley have success with the Baltimore Ravens as the backup quarterback. It almost beat the Cincinnati Bengals that one year. But you watch him in the Miami Dolphins and you realize, man, Miami. Did I say Dolphins? Dolphins offense, it's so fragile. It's so reliant on the fact that the quarterback throws the ball quickly. That's not a good thing. Doesn't mean that it's great that the quarterback does. But you don't want an offense that completely falls apart if you can't have a quarterback who throws the ball in less than two and a half seconds.

[Billy Gill]

Just to be clear, because I think stugats you confused maybe yourself and the audience. You made it sound like if you had to bench one of the other. You said the obvious answer is Saquon.

[Greg Cody]

It is the obvious answer.

[Billy Gill]

You would bench Saquon.

[Greg Cody]

I would, yeah. I would want to play the super bowl with Jalen Hurts. Yes.

[Gabe]

He wants Hertz and Will Shipley instead of Saquon and Kenny Pickett.

[Greg Cody]

Will Shipley had four carries for 77 yards. Anyone could run behind that line. Sorry, Saquon.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think you're right. I'm going to walk back. I think you would go with Hertz, but I don't think anyone could do what Saquon's doing behind that offensive line though.

[Stugotz]

I want to play a new game with Mina based on yesterday where all of us were confused for some reason between an assortment of bills named Dallas, Dawson and Dalton. So time for a new game here with Mina. It is Dalton, Dallas or Dawson is what we're gonna do here because we. Yes, Bill's white people that have run around and we confuse whether they're Dallas, Dawson or Dalton.

[Greg Cody]

Can I get the choices again? I gotta write this down.

[Stugotz]

Yes. We're gonna put up some pictures for a second. I think Mina's gonna play this game better than everybody else. I appreciate that we're playing this game.

[Dan LeBatard]

I don't have their faces that well.

[Mina Kimes]

Those keeping track. It's called Dalton, Dallas or Dawson.

[Stugotz]

That's right. Is the this. That's right. So is it Dallas Clark? Is it Dalton Kincaid?

[Mina Kimes]

Don't give hints. All right, let's look at the first picture. Put it up, guys. Here we go.

[Stugotz]

Very game show hosty.

[Mina Kimes]

All right, Mina. Sorry. For the audio audience. Who is that?

[Dan LeBatard]

That's Dawson Knox.

[Mina Kimes]

I think that is Dawson Knox. Good job.

[Stugotz]

Yes, Mina.

[Billy Gill]

Way to go with the audio audience. Mina just saw a picture of Dawson Knox.

[Mina Kimes]

Let's see the next one. Go ahead, Mina. This is easy because it's the same team.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, that would be Dalton Kincaid.

[Mina Kimes]

All right, good job. Video team. Probably should have gone with another one.

[Chris Cody]

The audio audience.

[Billy Gill]

Mina just saw a photo of Dalton Kincaid.

[Dan LeBatard]

The Bills logo on his jersey.

[Greg Cody]

It's gotta be Dallas. I mean.

[Chris Cody]

All right.

[Mina Kimes]

I mean, who's that?

[Billy Gill]

I don't need to do it.

[Dan LeBatard]

I don't know who this man is.

[Mina Kimes]

That's Dallas Clark.

[Dan LeBatard]

What?

[Stugotz]

That's a former Colts.

[Greg Cody]

Put him in a colts uniform. She would.

[Gabe]

He looks like.

[Dan LeBatard]

Like Tim Allen. I was gonna say the same thing.

[Stugotz]

Yes. That was the era of Colts football where we were always asking if Peyton Manning could get a shopping cart with a mannequin arm into the hall of fame.

[Mina Kimes]

All right, let's do the next one with Mina. Mina, who's that?

[Dan LeBatard]

That's James Vanderbeek.

[Mina Kimes]

And what was his famous character?

[Stugotz]

Mina, that's not the way the game is played. You don't play that. As it does Elton, Dallas or Dawson. And then that's James Vanderbie for the audio audience.

[Billy Gill]

We need to saw a picture of a man named James.

[Mina Kimes]

All right, Our final one show. Mina.

[Stugotz]

Yes, Mina. You don't know these movies, do you, Mina? We are.

[Dan LeBatard]

I do. That's. I know the actors.

[Stugotz]

Right, Mina, you don't know that.

[Dan LeBatard]

Is this roadhouse?

[Greg Cody]

Yeah.

[Stugotz]

Yes.

[Dan LeBatard]

Y Dallas. Something would be my guess.

[Stugotz]

Oh, it's a good guess. Understandable. But That's Dalton. That's a Dalton.

[Dan LeBatard]

I've never seen Roadhouse.

[Mina Kimes]

Good game.

[Chris Cody]

That was fun.

[Stugotz]

All right. Excellent.

[Greg Cody]

She does that thing where she lies about telling you she's seen a movie just because she wants to be part of the conversation.

[Dan LeBatard]

I mean, do you really have to see Roadhouse to get what Roadhouse is about?

[Stugotz]

Do you believe. Mina, we were talking about this yesterday. Are you believing the statistical or it's a statistical fact. Fact that CBS can accurately promote Kathy Bates in Matlock as America's new favorite television show? America. Can they accurately do that? Is that. Do you believe the ratings that that can be America's new favorite game show or new favorite television show?

[Dan LeBatard]

I think you could make a poll. You could poll three people in an office and say that it's a representative sample of America. I was thinking about this. Who was it? I think it was Jim Brown. So it must have been CBS when he was thrown into some new show they have with Morris Chestnut. And he was like, fox Watson. You won't believe it. He's a doctor. And I'm like, but he's also. He's also a detective. I was just thinking to myself, God, I'm gonna miss hearing these guys throw to these new network shows so much.

[Gabe]

It's a Sherlock spinoff. It's like a Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Dr. Watson. Watson spinoff.

[Dan LeBatard]

He's a lawyer, but he's also play by the rules.

[Stugotz]

Would you go to an ENT named Eberfluss?

[Greg Cody]

Dr. Eberfluss?

[Dan LeBatard]

Yes.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah.

[Billy Gill]

Not a podiatrist.

[Stugotz]

Would you go to a podiatrist named Eber Fluss?

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, why not?

[Stugotz]

Just don't want him lower half of the body.

[Billy Gill]

Mina, should the Dolphins play in Finland? That's what Greg said earlier.

[Chris Cody]

Great question.

[Dan LeBatard]

Why? Because. Just because. Finn.

[Chris Cody]

Yeah, yeah. You get it. Reason enough.

[Stugotz]

And he doesn't want to go to Spain. He doesn't say. He says it's 4,000 miles away. He doesn't want to.

[Dan LeBatard]

I think it's pretty clear the Dolphins shouldn't be anywhere near cold weather.

[Chris Cody]

It's a good point.

[Greg Cody]

Wow.

[Dan LeBatard]

This. This iteration.

[Billy Gill]

When's that game in Spain? Meaning just, you know, if you heard a hubbub around the league.

[Greg Cody]

Got some planning.

[Billy Gill]

They were trying to plan out this trip, but I mean, they're really waiting till the last minute.

[Dan LeBatard]

You're trying to.

[Billy Gill]

Prices are going up the show to.

[Dan LeBatard]

Send you to Spain.

[Chris Cody]

No, no, no.

[Billy Gill]

We're going to visit my wife's family. Wink, wink.

[Stugotz]

We will get to the bottom of the reporting on that Dolphins to Spain story. We will let you go on that note, Mina, unless you have any more super secret, important super bowl thoughts that we need to hear before you leave.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, I just wanted to thank you guys again for mentioning my show. If you're in Los Angeles, it's next Monday. We still have some tickets available. Double your tickets will be donated to charity. It's minapodlive.com to get tickets. For details, we got merch. I'd be excited to meet you, hang out a little bit. So, yeah, Tom, it's gonna be fun.

[Stugotz]

Tell people who's gonna be there too, because you're geeking out. This is football family for you.

[Dan LeBatard]

Yeah, a couple of my favorite POD slash friends will be there with me. Greg Rosenthal and Jordan O'Reig from NFL Daily. And then my friends who are Eagles fans, Chris. So we'll see how this goes. Chris Ryan and Andy Greenwald. Pardon me from the ringer. 100% of proceeds go to Wildfire Relief here in Los Angeles.

[Stugotz]

I want to play for you here before you get out of here. And I will remind people again that the Mena Keim show featuring Lenny is a very popular podcast where you can get a ton of football information and other things. Because she doesn't always geek out, though. Mostly geeks out on football. Let's play for her this sound and get her thinking on this.

[Chris Cody]

That's what this is about.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, no. Jacksonville. I can't watch this.

[Stugotz]

No, I can't watch the community.

[Dan LeBatard]

No, I can't watch it.

How do we do this together?

[Stugotz]

It's creepy. She feels bad.

[Dan LeBatard]

It's hard to watch. I think he's gonna be a good coach, but yeah, that's. It's a tough watch. Oh, the second. Oh, stop it.

[Stugotz]

Doom ball.

[Chris Cody]

No, no. It is creepy.

[Dan LeBatard]

Willies.

Yes. Yeah, sold it to Carvana.

[Dan LeBatard]

Oh, I thought you were selling to that guy.

[Chris Cody]

The guy who wanted to pay me in foreign currency, no interest over 36 months. Yeah, no.

Carvana gave me an offer in minutes.

Picked it up and paid me on the spot. It was so convenient.
