The episode kicks off with a detailed discussion about the complexities of scoring in bowling. Host Mike Ryan expresses his frustration with manually calculating scores, leading to a collaborative effort to demystify the process.

• Mike Ryan (02:18):
  "I need to know how we are going to score this. Israel."

• Chris Cote (03:00):
  "I guess you're right, because it's when you get a strike, it's the following two shots."

The team dissects a hypothetical bowling scenario, clarifying how strikes and spares affect the overall score. They compare bowling's scoring system to that of tennis, ultimately agreeing that tennis has an even more convoluted point structure.

• Roy Bellamy (08:16):
  "Tennis, come on."

• Chris Cote (08:29):

The conversation culminates in an exploration of the historical reasons behind tennis scoring, highlighting theories like the clock face and French game origins.

Transitioning from bowling, the hosts shift their focus to the Miami Dolphins, analyzing recent practices and the team's prospects for the upcoming season.

  "This is our opportunity to finally stop talking baseball for the rest of the year."

• Roy Bellamy (21:57):

• Mike Ryan (23:10):
  "She didn't know that there's offense and defense in football."

[Dan Le Batard]

You say you'll never join the Navy, that living on a submarine would be too hard. You'd never power a whole ship with nuclear energy, never bring a patient back.

[Chris Cote]

To life, or play the national anthem.

[Dan Le Batard]

For a sold out crowd.

[Chris Cote]

Joining the Navy sounds crazy.

[Dan Le Batard]

Saying never actually is. Start your [e-mail] America's Navy forged by the sea.

[Mike Ryan]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats podcast. Strike Strike Spare four three Open frame Nine spare. Okay, okay. I'm glad you said that. All right? It's consuming my life, all right? It's all I was able to think about all day yesterday. All right? I need this out of my life. I need to know how we are going to score this. Israel.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah.

[Roy Bellamy]

I got a question for Chris. Because if you go strike, strike, and nine, and you finish it off with a spare, the nine doesn't matter.

[Mike Ryan]

Great question. Okay, great question.

[Chris Cote]

I guess you're right, because it's when you get a strike, it's the following two shots.

[Greg Cody]

That's right.

[Chris Cote]

So you're right.

[Mike Ryan]

All right, Great question. So I couldn't sleep last night. I was laying awake. I'm staring at the ceiling, all right?

[Roy Bellamy]

You should have just imagined your son ran away. You would have slept like a baby.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm losing sleep over this. This is. This is. It's. We need to figure this out. All right? So yesterday, I was very confident, Israel, that I can score by hand. And here's where I got confused. So I'm glad you brought this up. Here's where I got confused, because the scenario that you gave me to figure out how to score bowling by hand, first four frames come up with a score. Strike, strike, spare. Four, three, open frame. Then people were messaging on Twitter like, zaslow, you got to know what the first roll was in the third frame with the spare. Like, no, you don't, because you're working off a strike and a strike, you get the entire frame. So that's where I screwed up, because the strike. Okay, you get the whole next frame. But we were working off of two strikes here. So you do need to know, Israel, the first roll in the third frame where you get a spare. Because what happens when you get a strike, Mike? You get the next. Not just the next frame necessarily. You get the next two rolls. And so if you get a strike. All right, that's one roll. So the first shot in the next frame, which was a spare, you get that for the bonus points. Also, that's where I screwed up.

[Jeremy Tache]

Now, what do I have to do to have a bowling ball assassinate a pin that looks like jfk?

[Mike Ryan]

You got to go back to Don Carter Bowling Lane.

[Jeremy Tache]

Thank you.

[Mike Ryan]

All right, I didn't bring out another one.

[Luis J. Gomez]

I didn't bring out another one. By the way, I'm going to keep down in the wraps way too soon. There's another one.

[Mike Ryan]

I mean, forget. That was crazy. It really was. If that was today. If Don Carter Bowling Lanes had on the video Tron, a bowling ball which posed As a sniper in a building and killed in a motorcade. A pin which had the face of John F. Kennedy Jr. And the one next to it had the face of Jackie Onas drawn in face.

[Jeremy Tache]

She didn't have the face.

[Roy Bellamy]

Yeah, she's had the little, she had.

[Mike Ryan]

The deal she was wearing, you know, it's Jackie.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, but we needed the face for jfk. It wasn't, it wasn't insinuated strong enough that that was a jfk.

[Roy Bellamy]

Kind of like the south park treatment of Donald Trump where it's a bigger deal if they put your face on it instead of animate it. Well, they put his face on the JFK pin, you're still the face on the other one.

[Mike Ryan]

You're so right about that. Because when the south park, you know, Trump premiere was a couple of weeks ago, it was shocking when, when, when Trump turned around in the chair and it was his face.

[Roy Bellamy]

Hey, relax.

[Mike Ryan]

And they got the, you got the penis and everything. So. All right, so here, there it is. Oh my goodness, there it is. Look at that. Bowling animation from Don Carter Bowling lanes. Apparently in the 90s. If that was today, that's on the.

[Roy Bellamy]

National news, of course.

[Chris Cote]

And the one that Tony has hidden is worse than that somehow.

[Roy Bellamy]

So the one that Tony has hidden, I just want to hint because I kind of already figured out, but I want to know, does it come up when you have like the difficult speaker split, whether there's the two.

[Chris Cote]

Is that when it comes up, it's a spare, Right.

[Roy Bellamy]

So when you hit. Oh, any spare.

[Luis J. Gomez]

Any spare that has a spare animation, that was obviously the JFK one again, 30 years removed.

[Mike Ryan]

You'd figure, figure we're over it. There's a little bit of like a.

[Luis J. Gomez]

Runway there that you.

[Jeremy Tache]

Sean McDermott loves that animation.

[Greg Cody]

A second bowling ball has hit the pins.

[Chris Cote]

Bowling loves historic events. We'll just put it that way.

[Mike Ryan]

All right, you ready? So, so let's do this. All right. Once and for all, let's do this. Strike. Strike. Now you gave me spare. Chris, what's the first roll?

[Chris Cote]

It was a nine. Spare.

[Mike Ryan]

Nine spare, very important.

[Chris Cote]

And then fourth frame, a four and then a three. All right, seven open frame.

[Mike Ryan]

Everybody ready? We following along. We're doing this as a team. Alright, so since we got a nine in that third frame, you're gonna add a bonus of 19 to the first frame, which gives you. In the first frame, everybody say at the same time, 29, that's right. Now what's the second frame gonna be? Okay, well we got a spare in that third Frame. So add that bonus on right there. That's gonna be 20. So it's gonna be for a score of 49. Chris was about to say 39. I saw that. Okay, you're already losing at this game. And then to figure out the score of the front the third frame, you got a four. In the fourth frame, one working off of a spare, add a bonus of four that equals 63. And then, Israel, this one's easy. You don't even need to have your abacus. Add seven to 63, and your score in the fourth frame is still doing the abacus joke. 70, 70 and that right there. Use whatever online bowling calculator janitors you want. Your score after those four frames is seven.

[Jeremy Tache]

Stupid ass game.

[Roy Bellamy]

Does this or does this not confirm? What I told you before is when we were younger, we were pretty much guessing, and at the end of the game, it was like, I think you won. But if it was like a one or two point game, there's no chance that was correct.

[Jeremy Tache]

That's a stupid ass game. Now, I saw him the other day.

[Mike Ryan]

Is that stupider or is the way they keep scoring tennis stupider?

[Roy Bellamy]

Tennis, come on.

[Chris Cote]

Tennis is. That's a great point.

[Roy Bellamy]

Let's do this.

[Chris Cote]

Dumbest sports in terms of scoring. It has to be tennis.

[Mike Ryan]

I mean, got to look.

[Chris Cote]

Golf made up words.

[Roy Bellamy]

I read that recently as the reason as to why they have those numbers. And it made more sense at the time. It just didn't stick.

[Greg Cody]

I kind of forgot they're like this.

[Chris Cote]

First point, let's go with 15.

[Mike Ryan]

What was wrong with one? Right?

[Chris Cote]

What is the reason? Explain it. I'm very curious.

[Roy Bellamy]

You guys have a little conversation. I'll look it up.

[Mike Ryan]

Second point. The second point is 30. What was wrong with 2?

[Chris Cote]

All right, we're cooking with 15s here. So the next one has to be right, right?

[Mike Ryan]

I'll clear. No, no, no, no, no, no. We're going 40.

[Chris Cote]

Wait, but why wouldn't it be 45.

[Mike Ryan]

And then I'm annoyed and then if it's tied, okay, we're gonna call this deuce.

[Roy Bellamy]

Deuce. I actually like.

[Luis J. Gomez]

I like the love, too.

[Mike Ryan]

I like love. Love is good.

[Chris Cote]

I like deuce. But the. The 15, 30, 40.

[Mike Ryan]

What are we doing?

[Roy Bellamy]

There's a couple of theories. There's the clock face theory. In the early days of tennis, like games, the clock face was sometimes used to track scores. But that would be 45 point would be. I'm not done yet. Each point would move the minute hand quarter all the way. 15, 30, 45 the 45 was later shortened to 40 to allow for deuce and advantage, where players need to win two consecutive points from a score of 4040 to win the game. There's another theory. This one's French related. It's based on the scoring system evolving from a French game, Jeux de Paume, where players would move forward on a court a certain distance with each point, eventually leading to the 15, 30 and 40 scoring system. The term love for zero is believed to have originated from the French word loup egg, which resembles the shape of a zero.

[Mike Ryan]

Fun or stupid?

[Roy Bellamy]

So French shit. Basically stupid.

[Mike Ryan]

Jeremy, good to see you today. You weren't here yesterday. You got some observations from yesterday's show?

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, I do. I watch along the show every day that I'm not here and constantly sitting there by myself going, why did they say that? So I do have a top five here of just sort of observations, like.

[Roy Bellamy]

Out of context, why did they say that? Or like, you going to tell us why they said that and be like, why the hell did you say that?

[Greg Cody]

Combination of both. Sorry. Chris started making fun of my voice and I got distracted. Number five, intimating that workplace equality has been fixed. When the first question we asked Jessica, who's not a Taylor Swift fan, was about Taylor Swift.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, I'll take. I'll take full credit or blame for that.

[Chris Cote]

In our defense, she said she wanted.

[Greg Cody]

To talk about number four.

[Mike Ryan]

That's what I thought. And then I started off. Jessica, you're a good person to ask this.

[Chris Cote]

Yeah, your setup wasn't great, but she did want to talk about it.

[Greg Cody]

Listening to Mike say that developing handshakes was a really important trait and why Carson Beck would be the number one pick.

[Chris Cote]

I actually buy that. That's team chemistry. That's like the vibes, you know, the.

[Roy Bellamy]

Opposite of team chemistry is. Look at that. Look at that posture from. From Mike as he listens to Jeremy. He's top five.

[Greg Cody]

I'm just saying we dunk on me for the power of friendship.

[Jeremy Tache]

It's basically the same thing saying this person telling us how to do our jobs. He's the only person that said a slur into the microphone this weekend.

[Greg Cody]

Number three. The reaction to a great young player existing for the Marlins being, when are we trading him?

[Chris Cote]

We're Marlins.

[Mike Ryan]

That joke's tired, right?

[Greg Cody]

It's just a tired joke.

[Mike Ryan]

That's low hanging fruit. I mean, come on.

[Greg Cody]

So much better pay ATT to this group.

[Jeremy Tache]

Have you put out a notes app apology to the Irish.

[Greg Cody]

Number two, saying sometimes cops can be wrong.

[Roy Bellamy]

Little more Than sometimes.

[Greg Cody]

And number one, hold on a quote, hold on.

[Luis J. Gomez]

So we go 5050 on.

[Jeremy Tache]

Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't. What's the little more than sometimes 75%.

[Greg Cody]

What do I say?

[Jeremy Tache]

Mostly. Show me your formula. Show me your data.

[Chris Cote]

I feel like that's a majority of. It's a made up stat here.

[Jeremy Tache]

It's a totally made.

[Greg Cody]

You know who else makes up stat stats?

[Roy Bellamy]

The cops.

[Mike Ryan]

Number one. I think it's 50. 50. Either they're right or they're wrong.

[Greg Cody]

Hearing the quote, I'm not cancer shaming, but.

[Jeremy Tache]

That'S just Jerry Jones. I'm listening contextually. If it was Jerry Jones, then I guess it's okay. Let's play on.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, it's. I'm not cancer shaming, however. And that was David Sampson speaking about Jerry Jones.

[Jeremy Tache]

So Jeremy hates the cops and the Irish.

[Mike Ryan]

Wow.

[Chris Cote]

And cancer patients.

[Jeremy Tache]

If you're an Irish cop, look out.

[Chris Cote]

I mean, he has a camp too.

[Jeremy Tache]

[Mike Ryan]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stu. Can we just stop for a moment and acknowledge that I'm. I'm in here with the freaking gun show? I mean, what is going on? Look at Israel. Not only is he knew what he.

[Roy Bellamy]

Was doing today, I mean, he's oiled up, too.

[Mike Ryan]

He's oiled up.

[Jeremy Tache]

I don't think he is. That's just the lighting.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm. I'm right next to him. Buddy is shiny. All right. He is oiled up. Looking all kinds of jacked. Why didn't you dress like this when we went on our matinee movie dates?

[Roy Bellamy]

You didn't ask me to, babe. Honolulu Blue is kind of running out of my closet. And I have this T shirt, which I don't even feel like I qualify to wear. I am not two Cs thick. Like, I'm a little kicked out, but I'm certainly not two Cs thick. And, yeah, I just had no choice because everything else is dirty. So I'm running out of hot.

[Mike Ryan]

A little blue. Now the two C's thick, that's on Israel's shirt for those of you who are not watching, the two C's thick, that's. That's a good kind of thick, right?

[Roy Bellamy]

Yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah.

[Chris Cote]

Is there a bad kind of.

[Mike Ryan]

Well, right.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, yeah, there is. Like your health is in danger. Yeah, he's. He's talking more pog.

[Roy Bellamy]

Yeah. If you're talking arteries, like, thick is not good. But when you're talking, you know, body, I think thick is good.

[Chris Cote]

I would think a thick artery, there's more room for the blood to flow.

[Mike Ryan]

No, but it's like your artery is so stuffed up with like, thick stuff. Yeah, that's not good. You want blood flowing through the artery, dude. Not stuff with thick.

[Luis J. Gomez]

Definitely want blood flow everywhere.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, I know, man. That's what I'm saying. Right?

[Roy Bellamy]

Honolulu the feet.

[Jeremy Tache]

So the big dog says there was a. There was a practice update.

[Roy Bellamy]

Yeah, man.

[Jeremy Tache]

Dolphins clap back, Izzy.

[Roy Bellamy]

Did they though? This is what kind of drove me crazy yesterday. Like, we did the whole thing and, you know, social posted it here and we talked about how bad the. The practice was for the Dolphins and how I'm pretty sure they're gonna have a terrible season.

[Mike Ryan]

But it wasn't just based off of the. That it wasn't.

[Roy Bellamy]

It wasn't. Because my experience with the Dolphins is based on 40 years. Right. It's not based on that. And when the Dolphins had a strong beginning of the second joint practice, people are like, what do you think now? How about now? Way to overreact to one practice. Look, I'm not overreacting to one practice. I'm properly reacting to years and years of Dolphins mediocrity and frank mediocrity and frankly just kind of being terrible sometimes. And that's the path that they're going down.

[Chris Cote]

If we put those two practices as one. Dolphins are a second half team.

[Roy Bellamy]

No, no, no, no, no. Because they were only good for like the first half of this second practice.

[Chris Cote]

Good third quarter team.

[Roy Bellamy]

Right. So they're going to lose 27, six and score those six in the third quarter.

[Chris Cote]

They're the opposite of the heat because.

[Roy Bellamy]

The Lions started off poorly, but then they just picked it up. And then by the end of it, they had a goal line situation, an 11 on 11 where they scored three consecutive times.

[Mike Ryan]

Hell yeah.

[Roy Bellamy]

And then when they went to 11 on elevens back at the 50 yard line, very first play, 50 yard touchdown to Jameson Williams. It's just Williams or Williamson. It is just Williams.

[Chris Cote]

It doesn't matter.

[Roy Bellamy]

It's the same exact Dolphins. They just got a little bit better because the defense got a little bit heated after getting toasted the day before. But then the Lions were right back.

[Mike Ryan]

At it and they look fine no one's over. Yes. So apparently yesterday in the second joint practice, the Dolphins looked significantly better than they did the day before. It was all, oh, they, they took it personally, you know, like, like Bradley Chubb said after the practice, we, we didn't like the way, you know, Wednesday went. We took it personally and we wanted to show them. We, we're gonna get back to dolphin football. Okay, fine. So apparently they did look better yesterday. And some reports I saw said they even won yesterday's joint practice session with the Lions.

[Jeremy Tache]

What is dolphin football?

[Mike Ryan]

I don't know. I don't know.

[Jeremy Tache]

Were they fast? What is their identity? I know what they're aspiring to be, which is run counterculture to preconceived notions.

[Roy Bellamy]

Well, they lost Alexander Madison for the season.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh. So what they've never had, they've literally never had. No, no.

[Roy Bellamy]

But my point is just that they don't have the bigger back. Right. So it's still Achan. And Hn has been the best back in these two. He was the only really good portion of the offense in the first practice between the two teams because of his speed, because you get him out of the space. So they've got a good situation there, but they need something else to balance that out. They need the thunder with the lightning if they're going to be a running team. And when you have Tyree Kill, you shouldn't really be a running team. So it's. The running game is just a little confusing.

[Mike Ryan]

Just find any other play on that goal line than the corner fade to Tyree Kill. I hate that shit.

[Greg Cody]

So annoying.

[Roy Bellamy]

And he's not even big like St. Brown had one of those. And this is one. It ended up being an incompletion, but it was a great pass and a great route and he beat the corner. He just went for a one handed catch and didn't catch it. I think he went for the crowd reaction. So it would have been an even worse series or would have been an even worse day for the Dolphins. But I would say if you look at by the end of the day, I don't think the Dolphins won that second joint practice.

[Mike Ryan]

I think there was a, there was a double overreaction yesterday because you had an overreaction to what was believed to be our overreaction of the Dolphins being terrible the first day of joint practice, meaning nobody was overreacting to the Dolphins looking horrendous in Wednesday's joint practice with the Lions. This is based off of. And I'm not even gonna go what, what you're talking about Israel, which is the last, last 20 plus years. I'm just talking about what we've seen over the last year and, and this off season and this training camp and leading up to this week. So there was like an overreaction to the overreaction. No one here is overreacting to the Dolphins lousy play against Lions. It's all of it. It's Jalen Ramsey talking about the coach. It's. We're back. Mike McDaniel's going into his fourth year with the team and we're talking about culture. Fourth year and we're talking about culture. It's Tyreek Hill. The very first day that he speaks, he's talking about needing to be a leader. And then Tua's like, yeah, we don't know if we trust you anymore. And it's the same stuff happening last week with the Bears and the Bears same. I don't think that team practices well. It's not about Wednesday against the Detroit Lions. It's all encompassing, which is why I think, like, if I would ask you, Israel, better chance. Dolphins win 12 games this year or they win four games this year, it's.

[Roy Bellamy]

A way better chance that they win four games. They might get off to a decent start and have some sort of false hope there. But I think the proof will be in the scores and just how they win. They might win a couple of games, like 18, 15 or something like that, but I just don't think there's a chance they go double figure wins. They surprise people. Like, they just keep losing pieces all this time and you're just like, where, where are the quality replacements for those guys? Not sure.

[Mike Ryan]

Like, I'm not gonna sit here and tell you I think they're only gonna win four games, but if you gave me the choice, I have to pick 12 wins or four wins, I'm definitely going better chance, four wins.

[Jeremy Tache]

Are we still on the Lions?

[Chris Cote]

It's just good song.

[Roy Bellamy]

If it's Lions and Dolphins practice, I think it's fair to keep the Lions music.

[Jeremy Tache]

I mean, we went from Dolphins practice to Dolphins takes.

[Chris Cote]

He referenced Wednesday though.

[Mike Ryan]

We're still good. Anyone watching Wednesday the show? Anyone?

[Roy Bellamy]

Got a little boring for me. Real quick lines. Update. The biggest thing in the news. Jared Goff was name dropped during the Taylor Swift interview on the New Heights. And apparently that blew his phone up. He didn't really say much about it, just that it was a big day.

[Chris Cote]

For him because Taylor admitted that when she first started dating Travis, she thought that like, she. Because like, when she first met him, she's like, oh, so you and your brother play against each other on the field? What's that like? And he's like, oh, no, it's offense versus offense.

[Mike Ryan]

There's no way.

[Chris Cote]

It would never be. She claims that she didn't know position. She didn't know what a first down was. And now she's like, talking about coverages. She's like, now I know cover two and man.

[Mike Ryan]

And no, I understand that maybe she doesn't know the rules, doesn't know how first downs work. I get that, but she. She didn't know that there's offense and defense in football.

[Chris Cote]

She was just like, everyone's on the court. Like, yeah, they play offense and defense, but yeah, they don't leave the field. And then they were like, that would be crazy.

[Mike Ryan]

Jared Goff playing defense.

[Greg Cody]

If you watch basketball, right? You play both sides of the ball. If you don't really watch much football, you might think that's what she think it was. Jared Goff and Josh Allen was what her example was like. Oh, I just thought they went up against each other.

[Jeremy Tache]

My takeaway is maybe mix in the medium brown. Too much dark brown.

[Roy Bellamy]

We're not in fall yet either.

[Mike Ryan]

What about the Lions on Thanksgiving? Don't they sometimes wear the brown? They got, like, that alternate brown uniform, right?

[Jeremy Tache]

The Lions. It just accentuates the entradas, which are creeping.

[Roy Bellamy]

Do you know who he's talking about?

[Mike Ryan]

No.

[Roy Bellamy]

Okay.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm faking it though, man. Just trying to keep the lines.

[Jeremy Tache]

Kelsey, I know if you were in the just for men chat, but you were proudly Just for men Agnostic.

[Mike Ryan]

Hold on a second. There's a just for men chat?

[Chris Cote]

There is. There's a chat for everything.

[Jeremy Tache]

There's a chat for everything, pal.

[Greg Cody]

Ham chat. Just for men.

[Mike Ryan]

I could literally say anything.

[Chris Cote]

Just name something.

[Mike Ryan]

Ham sandwiches.

[Jeremy Tache]

There is a sandwich chat.

[Chris Cote]

There's a meat chat, too, which that could go in either one.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah.

[Roy Bellamy]

Wow, I'm confused by the just for men chat. It's strictly hair talk.

[Jeremy Tache]

It's a. It's. It's calling out people that have done stuff.

[Mike Ryan]

Whoa.

[Chris Cote]

I need in that sandwich chat.

[Jeremy Tache]

By the way, teeth also canon for just.

[Roy Bellamy]

Ah, that's what you mean by done stuff.

[Jeremy Tache]

Like, if I see somebody on TV that I think is, you know, maybe dipping into the dark brown, and that could be taken a different way.

[Luis J. Gomez]

Like Colin did.

[Jeremy Tache]

But yeah, like Colin. Like, you know, you remember Colin Coward's initial FS1 promo shots.

[Mike Ryan]

Yes.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, like that. That'll get it.

[Mike Ryan]

It wasn't just promo shots. He did the show like that. Yeah.

[Jeremy Tache]

He looked like a week. Yeah, well, that's because, like, takes a while. Grew out.

[Mike Ryan]

That was crazy.

[Roy Bellamy]

Pretty sure now we're not allowed to put that color in our foods anymore.

[Mike Ryan]

So is anyone like me in this regard to.

[Jeremy Tache]

Is this still Lions? All right, I'll turn it off.

[Mike Ryan]

[Greg Cody]

It sounds to me like everybody could use a hug, because a hug is always the right size.

[Mike Ryan]

Stugats.

[Greg Cody]

All I have put in my body today is three cups of coffee and.

[Mike Ryan]

An entire cup of.

[Chris Cote]

Don't let him fool you. He said in the break that he's jittery.

[Mike Ryan]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats. Is anyone like me in this regard to Dolphins fandom, where I'm a Dolphin fan obviously my whole life, but I don't, like, I don't get emotional about it anymore. I don't. I don't lose sleep over it. When I was a teenager, man, if the Dolphins lost, you can't talk to me about the game until Wednesday.

[Chris Cote]

They didn't get you back. A couple years ago when we were good for like a year, there was.

[Mike Ryan]

There's. I don't think there's anything to get me back for. Meaning you probably would have said that.

[Chris Cote]

About the Panthers at one point, though. No. And they got you back.

[Roy Bellamy]

That wasn't the same.

[Mike Ryan]

No, it's not the same because my, like, I never had. There was never anything to get emotional about with the Panthers. They were always shitty, you know?

[Chris Cote]

Okay, so, yes, I get you. The Dolphins had you here. The Dolph. The Panthers never had you up there.

[Mike Ryan]

Right, right. And like, I wanted to get to that place. And finally, after 30 years, I'm in that place.

[Jeremy Tache]

So. So not the game seven lost in New Jersey, not the Island.

[Mike Ryan]

I was, I was very upset. Well, I wasn't very upset about the Game 7 loss to Jersey because, like, man, we're back in the playoffs and this was a lot of fun. Sucks that we lost, you know, but. All right, the game against the Islanders, Trocheck was tripped. Everybody knows that. I was very angry after that game, especially because I had tickets for game seven. All right? I was very angry that the Islander series, all right? But with the Dolphins, I stopped allowing it to make me crazy because I felt like the team didn't deserve my emotion, they didn't deserve ruining my week. So I lost that part of my Dolphin fandom. I don't think I'm ever gonna get it back. And that's okay. Like, I'm okay with not losing sleep over something. Like, I lose sleep over the Heat, I lose sleep over the Panthers. I don't need to also lose sleep over this.

[Roy Bellamy]

You'll get it back. I get it back. As soon as they're in a divisional round at home, it'll. You will be so never if, if they lose that game.

[Mike Ryan]

So maybe, maybe you're right. But what does make me angry is situations like this where you have former players who wind up talking shit about the Dolphins when they leave the team.

[Roy Bellamy]

Does that make you angry? As in you are defending the Dolphins is like, hey, don't talk shit about my team, ok?

[Mike Ryan]

I'm allowed to talk about my team. You're not allowed to talk about my team unless you've actually earned it. Like, if someone who was here for.

[Roy Bellamy]

Like, he played for the team you.

[Mike Ryan]

Didn'T like, if, okay, but, but today a player who's no longer on the team, for instance, we saw the Jalen Ramsey stuff the other day, and that bothers me, but it wasn't that bad. All right, but take for instance, Dolphins last year had a safety play for them called Jordan Poyer.

[Roy Bellamy]

That was what he was called.

[Mike Ryan]

He was a longtime Buffalo Bill safety. So obviously hate his guts for all those years, but now he's on our team last year thought it was a really good signing until we learned, oh, this guy is totally washed. All right.

[Jeremy Tache]

Like, like Thurman Thomas was.

[Mike Ryan]

It's so similar to Thurman Thomas. Like, we got Thurman Thomas at the end of career after he was killing us. All those years of Marino, he would always lose the playoff game in Buffalo.

[Roy Bellamy]

Every time he touched the ball seven.

[Mike Ryan]

Yards, it couldn't stop the screen pass. Thurman Thomas screen pass, automatic 12 yard gain every time. And then finally comes to play for us. Nice. Guess what? He sucked when he came and played for us. And then he talks shit afterward. All right? You, you're not allowed to do that. Okay? Because, for instance, Israel's. Oh, he played for the team. I didn't. If you ask Thurman Thomas today, do you care about the Miami Dolphins, he's going to tell you, get the hell out of my face. And if you ask me do I care about the Dolphins, I'm going to Say, yes, I do.

[Roy Bellamy]

If it's Zach Thomas.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh, he could say whatever he wants.

[Roy Bellamy]

Okay, so it's not all players, of course. So just the ones who just sort of had a cup of coffee with Miami.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah.

[Roy Bellamy]

And shouldn't be able to.

[Mike Ryan]

You're not allowed to talk about the Dolphins. Zach Thomas wants to say something. Tim Bowens wants to say something. Pat Surtan wants to say something. Have at it, player. But Jordan Poyer. All right. Jordan Poyer yesterday on Instagram. All right, you'll be able to see this if you're watching on video where he was gifting a. A Bills fan. A fan. Looks like Jordan Poyer is on vacation somewhere maybe. And he gifts a Buffalo Bills 21 Jordan Poyer jersey. Seems like a really nice thing to do. Okay, great. This is posted on Instagram. And then in the comments, someone comments with, guess they didn't want that Dolphin jersey, huh? And Jordan Poyer responds with, I don't even want that.

[Jeremy Tache]

What if that's self deprecating? What if he knows that he was garbage as a member of the Miami Dolphins and he's making fun of himself?

[Mike Ryan]

You think if you, if. If Wonder Woman was with him and she's using the lasso of truth. Truth. He's compelled to tell the truth. You must tell the truth. If Wonder Woman puts the lasso truth around you, tell the truth. You think that if he had a choice between, hell, no, am I being self deprecating here or am I trashing the Dolphins? You think he's going with, I'm. I'm being self deprecated?

[Chris Cote]

There is a laughing face emoji attached.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, he's like, this team sucks.

[Jeremy Tache]

Laughing at the Dolphins.

[Chris Cote]

If there's no emoji there, I'm with.

[Roy Bellamy]

You, but I just.

[Chris Cote]

I don't know, I'm kind of with Mike on this.

[Jeremy Tache]

I think there's more context here. When people think of Poyer, they will think of him as a Buffalo Bill. He closes career on a down note, not performing well in an opposing team's jersey. A hated rival. I think that that's self awareness.

[Chris Cote]

It's not like the normal laughing face. It's the sideways eyes closed. Like, that's like, that's playful. That's a playful emoji right there.

[Roy Bellamy]

I don't get the, like, if he would have said, I didn't even want that jersey, meaning, like, I didn't play well while I was there, I could. But I don't even want that.

[Chris Cote]

Like, because I was so bad there.

[Jeremy Tache]

I'm naturally predisposed to not give Jordan Poyer any grace, knowing what I know about Jordan Poyer. But I think you're being a little hard on the guy here.

[Mike Ryan]

Well, I don't think you're allowed to just throw that out.

[Luis J. Gomez]

Do you happen to know that or.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, what do you happen to know about Jordan Poyer?

[Jeremy Tache]

Google it, dog.

[Mike Ryan]

All right. Well, he happens to know.

[Chris Cote]

Great Scott. He happens to know. He happens to know.

[Jeremy Tache]

Gather everyone.

[Mike Ryan]

Get the children.

[Chris Cote]

He happens to know.

[Mike Ryan]

So wise.

[Jeremy Tache]

Let's just say we're not ideologically aligned.

[Luis J. Gomez]

I know one thing about Jordan Poirier. I'm gonna leave it at that.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh, my God.

[Chris Cote]

He knows.

[Mike Ryan]

I'm gonna leave it that.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, I know where he wanted to host his golf tournament.

[Luis J. Gomez]

Mine wasn't about that.

[Jeremy Tache]

Well, there was another thing, though.

[Mike Ryan]

That's what I'm talking about. Are we alive? Okay. Is anyone else like that where I like. I know the Dolphins suck. And I'll tell you, they suck, but I could say whatever I want about the Dolphins. Guys like Jordan Poyer. And you're right, Roy, guys like Thurman Thomas, they don't get to talk shit. I feel like I have to defend my team in that spot. You know what it was like? It was like a few years ago. Remember Mo Harkless with Heat?

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mike Ryan]

He. He was awful. A horrendous player.

[Jeremy Tache]

Terrible.

[Mike Ryan]

And he'd ended up trading him some nothing trademark. And like for the entire next year, whenever he had, like, whenever he would lose a big game, you know, he would put out some snide tweet or something like, shut the hell up, man.

[Roy Bellamy]

You know, the rest of the league with him is probably like. You realize that almost every player that goes there gets the best out of their themselves and their ability. And you're the one who couldn't. Nobody's actually agreeing with you on these crazy posts.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, yeah. Jeremy, who is that? That soft white guy that was pudgy that never got in shape, that just took constant shots at us.

[Greg Cody]

Nemania, Bialita, Pizza.

[Mike Ryan]

Really?

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah. Remember?

[Mike Ryan]

Oh, that's right. He spent a short period of time. Oh, I completely forgettable.

[Greg Cody]

We all thought he was going to be Danilo Gallinari.

[Mike Ryan]

What?

[Jeremy Tache]

Weird.

[Mike Ryan]

I couldn't even tell you.

[Jeremy Tache]

I mean, at that time.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, I'm really good with, you know, recalling, you know, the years, players, what the Heat did that season. I. If my life depended on it right now, I don't think I would be able to give you the year that he played.

[Roy Bellamy]

Wasn't it just a few like, it was a few years ago. They got them from Sacramento at the time.

[Mike Ryan]

Right.

[Roy Bellamy]

He was like a kind of somewhat offensively skilled.

[Mike Ryan]

Bigger.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, he had some good numbers. We're like the only stop in which he was just terrible.

[Mike Ryan]

And he talked shit.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, he talked plenty of shit.

[Mike Ryan]

Listen, I'm a Tyson. How do you say his name again?

[Roy Bellamy]

You absolutely nailed that.

[Mike Ryan]

Let me.

[Jeremy Tache]

I mean, pretending to not know who that is.

[Mike Ryan]

Thank you. Thank you. It's.

[Jeremy Tache]

Look at his flex fit.

[Mike Ryan]

It's for effect. All right. You don't think Zazlo knows everything about Bielitsa, Nemania, Beelitza? You want to talk shit to someone, talk shit to me.

[Roy Bellamy]

Wow. Right?

[Jeremy Tache]

And those two rings.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah.

[Greg Cody]

It was 11 games in the 2020, 21 season. So it was coming off the bubble. And then that season obviously ended in disappointment. The first round exit at the hand of the bucks. And he was supposed to be some sort of missing piece. And, you know, before they got to.

[Roy Bellamy]

The finals, the year after that, they get Bialitza missing piece. By the way, if he wants to talk shit to you, he should probably start with the fit of that cap.

[Jeremy Tache]

Oh, I'm gonna put together a top five zaz that I think you're gonna like.

[Mike Ryan]

Okay. I'll love a good list.

[Jeremy Tache]

Top five Miami Heat fboys.

[Mike Ryan]

Okay. All right. I can get down with that. All right. While Mike puts that together. Jeremy, you were very upset when you got here this morning, not because of the things that you disagreed with from yesterday's show when you weren't here, but you're very upset with your favorite little baseball team, the Marlins, where you feel like the. The door was open here for them to continue making a push maybe to a wild card spot. And they lost two out of three, including yesterday, a game where they led three nothing after the middle of the first. Now, again, when I say middle of the first, that's before the Guardians even had an at bat for the game. All right. But three nothing lead, they wind up losing again.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, it's rare that Edward Cabrera has has a start like what last night was. He gave up three runs in the first inning, ended up not making it through the sixth inning. And he's been, I mean, one of the better pitchers in baseball over the last couple of months. He's been really solid, but it was disappointing. You take a three nothing lead, you ultimately blow it, and you're down five, four going into the seventh inning. And they didn't end up going to a high leverage reliever, Valente Beozo. Who's been really good for them in several different roles this season, but as of late, has been kind of getting shelled, comes in, gives up several runs, starting with a leadoff double to Jose Ramirez. And. And the disappointing part is, even after losing four out of five against the Braves, the Marlins were six games back. Even after this two out of three against the Guardians, the Marlins remain six games back of the New York Mets because they have won two games in their last 15. And so when the Marlins had surged the way they had and got to.500, it felt like there was an opportunity for them to take advantage. They're currently sitting five games under.500, and yet they are just six games back of that wild.

[Mike Ryan]

They never got over five.

[Greg Cody]

And if they got to.500, they got to.500. When they. When they beat the Yankees, they now lost four out of five against the Braves. They lost. And they had lost two out of three against the Astros. They lost two out of three against the Guardians. They're sitting here and there. There was this opportunity over the last week and a half to get yourself a lot closer because they play the Mets seven more times this season.

[Mike Ryan]

Well, I guess so. So here's the pushback that I'll give you there. All right? It's not like what you're saying is not factual in regards to the Marlins catching the Mets, but they're not just chasing the Mets. There are four teams in between the Marlins and the Mets.

[Greg Cody]

Oh, yeah, and look, the Giants have not been playing well. The Diamondbacks have been, all right, but both of those teams were essentially sellers at the deadline. They're not chasing quite the same way that people anticipated. There's only a game and a game and a half difference between those. They're two and a half back behind the Cardinals, who they play at home starting next week. So going up against the Red Sox this weekend, if you can, again, it's the same scenario we talked about going to the Guardians. Hey, if you could take two out of three, get some momentum, then you play a team you're going up against, there's this opportunity to move ahead. And the Reds are playing the Milwaukee brewers, the very best team in baseball. So they might drop a couple of games this week. This weekend remains big for the Marlins. And I guess the, The. The frustration that you have if, if you are watching along over the last week, week and a half is, man, what an opportunity this could have been to push to be four games back, maybe even three games back, and instead you're still sitting here just holding out hope. You almost, there's, there's a part of. I, I know a lot of Marlins fans online that almost wish that the Mets had just been winning some of these games and run away with it so that you could stop holding on to what's likely a pipe dream of going for the postseason. But, you know, if you have a good series this weekend, you never know. Coming back, playing nine straight at home before going to New York, I thought.

[Roy Bellamy]

He was going to say this is our opportunity to finally stop talking baseball for the rest of the year. But apparently the Marlins are still in the hunt.

[Mike Ryan]

Now we're trying to milk it, if we can milk another couple weeks till the regular season of football starts. That's.

[Luis J. Gomez]

We're so close.

[Mike Ryan]

That's right. That's the sweet spot right there. You know? That's the sweet spot. Mike, what do you got, man?

[Jeremy Tache]

We got a couple Oli. Now, the Oli, they made positive contributions. Some even earned big contracts here.

[Mike Ryan]

So these are Miami Heat F boys, right?

[Jeremy Tache]

But they have papa for brains. All right, honorary. We love him. He's a legend. But classic F boy, Mario Chalmers.

[Mike Ryan]

Wow. Yeah, that's.

[Jeremy Tache]

We love him, though.

[Mike Ryan]

I didn't expect expect that.

[Roy Bellamy]

I might need a direction. Deep definition of fboy, then.

[Mike Ryan]

Wow.

[Jeremy Tache]

And if we're putting together a top 10 of my favorite Miami Heat players, Rio may be on it.

[Mike Ryan]

Okay.

[Jeremy Tache]

But F Boy, MD, Pachalmas, Oli Dion Waiters.

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, that's a good one. That has a good one.

[Jeremy Tache]

Gave us a great moment. That's why it doesn't crack the top five. And this guy made a big contract. Nobody else was doing it with blocks, but between the years, wasn't there Hasan Whiteside?

[Mike Ryan]

Wow. Oli Hasan Whiteside.

[Roy Bellamy]

See how large he has gotten?

[Mike Ryan]

Yeah, dude, huge.

[Luis J. Gomez]

He plays for Lopirata in Puerto Rico, by the way.

[Mike Ryan]

He might be too big.

[Jeremy Tache]

Let's be honest, the top five gave us pretty much next to nothing. All right, number five, Mike Bibby.

[Roy Bellamy]

Number one in my heart at all. Time for fboys.

[Mike Ryan]

Standing ovation, right?

[Jeremy Tache]

Yep.

[Mike Ryan]

Nothing. Yeah, he was bad.

[Roy Bellamy]

Another roided up dude.

[Jeremy Tache]

Number four. Yeah, allegedly.

[Mike Ryan]

Whoa.

[Jeremy Tache]

Come on, number four.

[Mike Ryan]

Take it easy, man. McBob. I didn't hate Josh McRoberts the way.

[Jeremy Tache]

Everyone else hated Josh McRobbed us.

[Mike Ryan]

That dude, he wasn't supposed to take the contract.

[Jeremy Tache]

Number three, Smush Parker.

[Mike Ryan]

You know he's trying to be a referee.

[Jeremy Tache]

Yeah, yeah, I saw that. Number two, Kyle Lowry.

[Mike Ryan]

How is he not number one? I've never, I, I, I've never disliked the Miami Heat player. More I hated watching. Really?

[Roy Bellamy]

I know who his number one is.

[Mike Ryan]

He's a disgrace.

[Chris Cote]

Gotta be Chris Quinn.

[Jeremy Tache]

Kyle Lowry is a disgrace.

[Mike Ryan]

The disgrace.

[Jeremy Tache]

Just a total lack of professionalism during his time down here.

[Mike Ryan]

And wearing number seven, which should only be recognized as Goron Dragic's number.

[Jeremy Tache]

The Dragon number one. This one's obvious.

[Roy Bellamy]

Yeah.

[Jeremy Tache]

Anybody want to guess?

[Roy Bellamy]

Scary.

[Jeremy Tache]

That's right.

[Mike Ryan]

Wow.

[Jeremy Tache]

Terry Rozier. Not just the worst Miami Heat basketball player of all time. The worst basketball player of all time.

[Mike Ryan]

Oh wow.

[Jeremy Tache]

This guy sucks.

[Roy Bellamy]

Do you think it's a long con so that they go back and see C I wasn't trying to hit the unders. I'm just this bad.

[Jeremy Tache]
