Tone and Style

Le Batard and crew’s tone is unmistakably playful, sarcastic, and self-aware, regularly breaking the fourth wall to acknowledge their own show’s workings. The banter moves easily from the hyper-local (Miami funerals, Inter Miami fans) to the national (Alabama football, Belichick’s coaching future), always rooted in their keen observation and willingness to poke fun at themselves, each other, and the world of sports at large.

---

Summary Takeaway

This Local Hour is a quintessential slice of the Le Batard universe: sports obsessions filtered through Miami’s personality and national absurdities, a real-time exploration of inclusivity (and exclusivity) both within the show and in the broader culture of teams and fandom. From local legends to sporting scandals, nothing sacred—and everybody, even Greg Cody’s breathing, is fair game for laughter.

Transcript

[Dan Le Batard]

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila.

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

What are you doing here?

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo? Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, I do know that to be true. But even during ad reads like Cuervo, I think he could lay out. Especially for one of our great partners.

[Billy Gil]

Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion.

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

So enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo.

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

The tequila that invented tequila. Proximo. Cuervo.com Please drink responsibly.

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo. Billy, why were you so excited by your Bezos sighting or your Bezos reporting? I don't think you actually cited him. But we are now treating a rich man like he is a very giant celebrity. Just because he's.

[Chris]

He is a celebrity, Is he not a celebrity?

[Billy Gil]

No, but. But it's just because he makes a lot of money. Like he's not famous for anything else. He's just famous for being rich.

[Chris]

Well, I mean, he's not famous just for being r. Not like Kim Kardashian. Right. I mean, I guess she's famous for other things too. But like he, you know, he's a businessman. He figured out how to, you know, bookstores are dying. I don't know if you heard, bookstores are dying everywhere in part because of him, but bookstores are dying everywhere. And he said, you know what? I have this online bookstore, but also I can send you a stapler and I can have it to you by 10am tomorrow.

[Greg Cody]

Magic.

[Chris]

Yeah. It's incredible. And this is a man that, you know, everybody knows of the world's richest men. And I was sent an article. I don't know why I was sent an article by my father who saw it. The Miami Herald wrote this article. Jeff Bezos. Unfortunately, his mother passed away a few weeks ago. And the article wasn't about his mother eulogy. It was more a story about how his mother's funeral again, one of the world's richest men. Most famous men who, you know, grew up down here. His mother's funeral was at the funeral home next to Tropical Park. Caballero Ribeira, No.

[Billy Gil]

Yeah. No.

[Chris]

Same place that my grandparents funerals were.

[Dan Le Batard]

My abuela Ida is buried there.

[Chris]

Yeah, well, buried there, it'd be weird under a building. It's a funeral home.

[Dan Le Batard]

Oh, no, I'm sorry. That was the one right? By Tropical Park.

[Chris]

Yeah. So the wake the wake was there and there was like, almost like paparazzi photos of him going in with his new wife into this, you know, just funeral home where a lot of old human people for the most part just go and have their wakes.

[Billy Gil]

We need to send Tony over there to do a live hit from, from over there so people can see what it is. The Caballero Funeral Home actually is not.

[Chris]

To make this like, morbid, but like, that's also where Jose Fernandez's wake was. It's a who's who of, you know, famous wakes.

[Greg Cody]

Wow.

[Zaz]

That kind of thing.

[Billy Gil]

Chris, Chris. Were you looking at your father's face throughout all of that? Like your father is never happier, never more radiant than when something is about him that is as happy as I have seen your father. Tell me the last time you were that happy at your son's wedding.

[Greg Cody]

I mean, isn't that human nature? You know, you're. I'm featured. I'm. I hear my voice singing. What could be better?

[Zaz]

Were you watching your son's wedding video after the fact, thinking to yourself, man, this should have been more me?

[Greg Cody]

Yeah. Oh, yeah, of course.

[Billy Gil]

Do your sons, does your wife, do they know that they were raised and. And love a man who is a serial narcissist this way that makes every single thing about him, including his son's Father's Day with. Which is now about. Should be about your granddaughter.

[Greg Cody]

See, I blame my, my late parents. I'm sorry, mom and dad, but they encouraged that. You know, I, I remember driving around with mom and dad at a very early age singing the Game of Love, which was a big hit at the time.

[Billy Gil]

What were they encouraging?

[Greg Cody]

They were encouraging me to perform, you know, to, to sing, to, to do little shows for them and, and I grew up to be whatever the hell I am.

[Zaz]

They saw you as a star?

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, I think so.

[Chris]

I have a clip here of one of my. Of my dad reading one of the nominees and in this clip it's him reading about himself.

[Zaz]

You can hear kind of like Pablo.

[Chris]

You can hear him smiling while reading.

[Zaz]

A clip about himself.

[Billy Gil]

You absolutely you. When your father is delighted by only himself, you can absolutely hear the smile in his voice.

[Greg Cody]

Greg Cody dismisses youth sports teams for not earning donations.

[Chris]

You can hear him like Greg Cody crushes the youth sports.

[Billy Gil]

You can hear the smile. The SUI winners are going to be announced today. I suspect that your father has won some. How long?

[Greg Cody]

Better.

[Billy Gil]

How long is that montage of your father just screwing up all of those SUI readings?

[Chris]

We have a minute 35 of my dad screwing up all the lines he had to read.

[Greg Cody]

And then we have a five and.

[Chris]

A half minute montage of all the winners.

[Billy Gil]

All right, well, before we get to the winners, let's just play the montage of. Because let's celebrate today because we've got to put the sueys away. And now it's not just that we're sprinting toward football season. Pablo's going to drop another Pablo. And it's a bomb like Pablo's. Well, we can't talk about it yet.

[Zaz]

You'll tell me off air.

[Billy Gil]

I can't even tell you off air because it's going to be the story of the week, though. It's going to be. It's going to be a big Pablo drop.

[Zaz]

Why don't you trust me?

[Billy Gil]

Bigger. Bigger than any of previous Pablo drops.

[Greg Cody]

Wow.

[Chris]

We'll see.

[Billy Gil]

And so that's the expectation and we will see if that happens or if.

[Greg Cody]

He under delivers subject matter.

[Billy Gil]

I can't tell you that.

[Greg Cody]

Not even a hint, huh?

[Billy Gil]

Yes, but he's gonna, he is merging with the New York Times and the Athletic and on a football week, I think he's gonna have the talk story in sports.

[Chris]

There's this tension that you yourself have created in this office and I don't know if you're aware of this, Dan. There's very much a case of the haves versus the have nots. And it started today where the haves know what this Pablo story is and the have nots do not. And it's being talked about like, oh, we need to plan and do this and that, and we're gonna. And it's gonna be this huge thing. And then everyone's like, what the hell is. Do you know?

[Zaz]

I don't know what's going on.

[Chris]

Zaz doesn't know. Zaz looked at me, he's like, do you know? It's like, zaz, but welcome.

[Billy Gil]

It's not.

[Zaz]

I thought this was an inclusive place, feel exclusive.

[Billy Gil]

It's not a haves and have not story. It's that evidently it was some work that Samson and Amin had to do with Pablo and for Pablo. And so they were. I guess it's not haves and have nots, but I guess that. That there were multiple layers to this story.

[Dan Le Batard]

Damn. I thought we were definitely doing a have and have nothing. I was kind of reveling in it. I definitely know Mike's a have.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, I don'.

[Billy Gil]

No, they didn't want to tell me, and I did not want to know.

[Greg Cody]

I'm left out.

[Billy Gil]

But now I have to get involved because there are legal matters and because we're starting something with the New York Times and because I think Pablo's gonna drop a Pablo here. And I think it's the biggest story Pablo has had.

[Zaz]

I know what the story is.

[Dan Le Batard]

No, you weren't there.

[Zaz]

I don't know what the story is.

[Dan Le Batard]

I pulled Dan aside before the show and we were just talking like, how great is it that we know this?

[Chris]

They were talking like we weren't even in the room.

[Greg Cody]

Carl, what do you think?

[Chris]

What are we gonna do for this? Just like, if we weren't even. Like, we were ghost people. They were talking around us crazy.

[Dan Le Batard]

We made it seem like Carl knew too. Carl doesn't know.

[Chris]

Wow.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah.

[Billy Gil]

Look at the habs here. Okay, all right.

[Chris]

So Ethan asked, why are they saying it? I'm like, ethan, they're afraid you're gonna scoop Pablo, bud. That's why they're not saying they don't trust you.

[Billy Gil]

But Ethan can't be trusted here.

[Dan Le Batard]

I've gotta tell you, this was all by design. This was exactly, exactly what Dan was going for.

[Billy Gil]

So Greg Cody was reading in the Suis. He was the host of the Suis. It was a spectacular Suis. But we're about to leave them behind as we go into football. Got a lot to get to with Zaslow because he was in the middle of the big games in his suite. Lucy was in the middle of everything. The University of Miami is in the middle of. Of everything. But first, let's just listen to Greg Cody. He's not always smiling during this. I've seen him enraged. He yells at his son, I see you, Chris. I see you and your dad recreating Jeremy.

[Greg Cody]

That's Greg breathing.

[Chris]

You just asked me who's breathing.

[Billy Gil]

Awesome.

[Zaz]

Breathing. Holy cow.

[Greg Cody]

Pardon me for living Breathing.

[Dan Le Batard]

A little safety blank. It's a nice little reminder. He's still kicking.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you.

[Zaz]

Breathing.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you. I appreciate that, everybody.

[Billy Gil]

He was a giant nostril. Why are you winded? We all heard.

[Greg Cody]

I'm not winded.

[Dan Le Batard]

Hey, you're not allowed to say, greg, get in front of the mic and then not be okay with the ramifications of that.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you. Thank you very much. When I sit back here, everybody yells at me.

[Billy Gil]

All right, so the. Fair enough.

[Greg Cody]

Ridiculous.

[Billy Gil]

You know what? Fair enough. We hadn't accounted for the size of those nostrils, Cody.

[Greg Cody]

Nostrils and ears.

[Chris]

His parents used to encourage him to breathe.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you. I've been breathing every day of my life. I don't know about the rest of you.

[Billy Gil]

Well, yeah, the rest of us have too.

[Greg Cody]

Oh, well, what are you complaining about then?

[Chris]

The pot kettle situation.

[Billy Gil]

Hank Azaria would tell you that being a voice actor can be hard because of the number of takes of things. And Greg Cody during the sueys. This is a lot of work. He's doing a lot of work. He's doing a lot of reading. And he's recreating the dynamic I have with my father on television, which is he's getting furious at his son for his son just asking him to keep doing the job a little bit better. A father does not like to be corrected like this when he is stubborn and male as Greg Cody is or as my father is. And so Greg also gets mad while smiling while reading his name. So let's just hear the mess ups of Greg Cody.

[Greg Cody]

You know what? Hang on, hang on. I'm not plugged in yet. What is going on with you? Okay, here we go. And now the. And now the. And now the. Hang on. Stugas dismisses Shohai Ohtani. Hey, what?

[Chris]

Shohei ohtani.

[Greg Cody]

Tony Koladiyud, Ltd. Fake Nicola Yokitnan. Dan Lebatar disrespects Black History Month while talking to PK Saban. Did I pronounce that right? PK Suban while talking to PK Subin. Greg Cody dismisses youth sports Teams for not earning donations. Greg Cody dismisses Gary Fuhrman. Nobody knows who Gary Fuhrman is. Gary Fuhrman's in the same category as.

[Chris]

I'll leave that in.

[Greg Cody]

Please don't. How do you want me to pronounce Taytaz? Oshia Jackson, Jr. O'?

[Dan Le Batard]

Shea?

[Greg Cody]

Pat Ford. Is it Ford or 40? Ford. A Steve Kerr. Kerr. Steve Kerr. You don't know Steve Kerr's name? I mean, you know, that kind of thing. Stormy Daniels.

[Chris]

Scroll down past laughs.

[Greg Cody]

Hang on. It's making me jump through hoops here. I gotta hang on.

[Chris]

Are you jumping through hoops?

[Greg Cody]

Is that what you're doing? All right. Dominique's. Hang on. Dominique Foxworth played through spinning. Dominique's. Dominique Foxworth. Diamonds look like pee pee. Andrew Siciliano. Andrew Siciliano. Siciliano, right.

[Chris]

Siciliano.

[Greg Cody]

Siciliano.

[Billy Gil]

Perfect.

[Chris]

Take the rest of the day off.

[Greg Cody]

Thank you.

[Billy Gil]

Nobody knows who Gary Fuhrman is.

[Greg Cody]

You want me to say tetas or tatas or.

[Billy Gil]

That is not true.

[Greg Cody]

I mean, down here they do.

[Billy Gil]

There's a fake Gary Fuhrman lurking around during Mike's five hour marathon sessions to preview University of Miami Notre Dame. And he's dirty.

[Dan Le Batard]

And for the record, he just did a rewatch of Sex and the City. Still holds up.

[Billy Gil]

There's a fake Gary Fuhrman sneaking around Mike Ryan's chat. I think Mike Ryan essentially got this game right when he predicted what he did about the University of Miami. And I will get to that story later in the show because we did discuss it some yesterday. Welcome back. Ruben Bane. God, it was nice to see a defensive player for Miami. Well, he's a pretty good player, but also it was sort of weird that he wasn't that player last year, that their defense was that bad with him in it. And to see Ruben Bane do that to that offensive line was super exciting. And almost as exciting as, oh, they can be a physical defense and not get a ton of penalties and not make a lot of ton of mistakes. Wait a minute. Did they fix their defense in one game or is that. Is that a first time quarterback? That doesn't make them pay for their mistakes because it looked like they fixed their defense.

[Zaz]

I mean, and Reuben Bane in particular. I felt like I was watching the best defensive player in the country. He, he was incredible. He was in the right. I know. You know, why was he on that side of the field when the, you know, ball was kicked in the air? But he was around the ball. He was around every play the entire game.

[Dan Le Batard]

He was swarming the ball. He was Hustling that ball should have been intercepted three different times. It was hilarious that Ruben Bane not only intercepted it but then ran 15 yards but Reuben Baines. I was listening to someone from PFF talk about Reuben Bane's performance on Saturday. Reuben Baines freshman year he had the second best pass rushing grade for a true freshman in the history of pff, only behind Myles Garrett. Myles Garrett was the only freshman pass rusher to ever impress PFF for the record.

[Billy Gil]

And we saw it. You can see it with your eye, right? Calais Campbell did some of this too his first year. You were looking at him and saying, oh, can that be Jerome Brown category of pass rusher where this guy's going to get physically stronger and he's already that much bigger and faster and stronger than everybody. But he was not at all that last year.

[Dan Le Batard]

I have to correct you, Dan, he's not bigger than everybody. Like he, he is put together. He is incredibly strong. But his size is not prototypical there. In the same way, I'm not drawing comparisons. I think Aaron Donald's the best offensive player I've ever seen. But Aaron Donald, the measurables, it's the reason why he wasn't taken number one overall. Reuben Bane has to make up for some deficiencies with his body type. But last year he got hurt on like the third snap against Florida, missed several games and his body never got fully fit after that. This offseason got a nutritionist, got healthy and we're seeing the guy that won that game almost single handedly against Clemson his freshman year.

[Billy Gil]

Chris, can you hear his breathing? I mean I.

[Zaz]

Can you, can you hear it?

[Billy Gil]

I don't want to stop the show, but it's just.

[Greg Cody]

I can't.

[Zaz]

I can barely hear.

[Billy Gil]

Mike, why are you winded? Can we put what Ruben Bane the game plan. He wrote it in his notebook. We've got exclusive access.

[Chris]

We decided last minute that we're not.

[Dan Le Batard]

Going to show this.

[Chris]

A lot of curse words.

[Billy Gil]

We can describe it for the people. That's just bleep nd bleep nd bleep nD. Yeah, but the BLEEP is shown.

[Dan Le Batard]

My favorite is BLEEP Notre Dick.

[Zaz]

It looks like what a 12 year.

[Chris]

Old would do to a composition book.

[Billy Gil]

It is a notebook from a dirty 12 year old that's hiding this from their parents. They've just learned curse words.

[Dan Le Batard]

This is him very much appearing like he's in a film room. He takes his notebook out to take notes as he's watching film and one of the notes is bleep Jeremiah Love. Bleep bleep. Notre Dick. And at one point, he writes down an initial number on the sack total and then after watching the film, scratches it out and then lands on three sacks. Now, he only got a half sack, but he impacted the game more than any other defender.

[Zaz]

My favorite part of this journal is just like you used to when you were in school, he. He's got the date in the top right corner. Everybody knows when you're in school, you got to put the date in the top right corner.

[Dan Le Batard]

But then also at the very bottom where he wrote it again, he had.

[Greg Cody]

Eight.

[Dan Le Batard]

At the top where he dates it, but then at the bottom, just to remind himself. August 31st.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, you can't put that out on social media. I don't want to be the wet blanket here, but if Reuben Bain is not the player he is, a coach is going to say, what are you doing? Never do that again. But because he's the best defensive player on the team and one of the best in the country and a top 10 NFL draft pick, they go, hey, that was funny, Ruben. Keep it up.

[Chris]

In fairness, we don't know what the coaches were saying in the meeting, so he might have been taking notes.

[Dan Le Batard]

Bleep notor D. Never heard Notre Dick before Don Leardard.

[Greg Cody]

And then that Stafford threw him 25 and 2. Oh, there's a brand new kid in town out of BYU Stugats. They call him Puka Nakua. His quarterback is not named Tua. Yeah, he is Puka.

[Billy Gil]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the st. Can you guys censor this some so that people can see that this is a piece of notebook paper. This is not a game plan, okay? This is. This is a child who is scribbling and is like, yes, I'm gonna wreck Sunday night because Miami's defense is back. Before we get to all of the Miami things, though, that we have not talked about, because I also want to get to inter Miami and Notre Dame. Notre Dame in Miami was so big that we've got Luis Suarez spitting on a Seattle staffer. As Billy said yesterday, they're called the staffers. Yeah, they're. They're the league's Gold cup champions. Three nothing. They. They. The one. They. They won the trophy. That confuses me.

[Dan Le Batard]

Leagues Cup.

[Billy Gil]

Yeah.

[Dan Le Batard]

Called it a gold cup.

[Billy Gil]

And I.

[Chris]

And I said it not Billy.

[Greg Cody]

Second year tournament. A lot of heritage there.

[Dan Le Batard]

People are pissed, dude. I follow a ton of Inter Miami accounts and I have. I have very rarely seen fans this upset at a team. Its Leadership. Zaz, when. When you mentioned Inter Miami before on our show, you kind of admitted that you were uneasy about how unlikable they are and played into it.

[Zaz]

I was like half joking when we did this like a week or two ago. Like, I don't think I like this team, you know, because it's. It feels like they're constantly cheating or they're skirting the rules. They're just. They're they just feel dirty. And I was. I was like half serious, half trying to be funny. And then you see what happened on Sunday night, which, I mean, I didn't watch the game because I'm watching the Canes, you know, but you see the Clips afterward. And Luis Suarez, who. Who's got a reputation anyway.

[Billy Gil]

Wait, a reputation? He bites. He's. Yeah, he's bitten people, right?

[Dan Le Batard]

Bad dude.

[Zaz]

Right? He's got a reputation. Anyway, it's one of these guys, like really Now I got a cheer for Luis Suarez and he's on here in Miami. All right, fine. I guess so. And then you got this melee after or late in the game, they called it. With a little bit of time left, not only did Inner Miami get their kicked in and they lose three, nothing. But then you have this super team who's fighting Seattle. They're not fighting some club from overseas, they're fighting the Seattle Sounders. And then you have Luis Suarez, who straight up spits in the face, not even of another player. I don't know if that would make you feel better, but in. In the face of a staffer. And you got Sergio Busquets, who's actually throwing punches out there. I'll tell you something. I'm out on this team. I think I'm out. I'm out on.

[Billy Gil]

Are you out or you think you're out? Say it or don't say it.

[Zaz]

That's a good question.

[Billy Gil]

It's not. I'm out. I think I'm out. Out or not? No. Are you. Wait a minute. You got caught up in the air question.

[Dan Le Batard]

Or is this conveniently time because football season started?

[Greg Cody]

Let us know when you decide.

[Zaz]

Another good question. I'm going to decide right now. I am out on into Miami.

[Billy Gil]

I'm out.

[Zaz]

I'm out there. So on for give.

[Billy Gil]

No, not the right sound.

[Zaz]

Unforgiven.

[Chris]

You guys missed the un.

[Zaz]

They're so unlikable, this Inter Miami team.

[Dan Le Batard]

It was the breathing.

[Zaz]

This happened two days ago. All right, has anyone Inter Miami said anything yet? Has Luis Suarez said anything yet?

[Dan Le Batard]

This is an important point.

[Zaz]

No one has said anything yet. Yeah.

[Dan Le Batard]

What Zazzle's saying right now is. Is part of the reason why a lot of fans are upset is that where's the communications from the media relations?

[Zaz]

Their media relations has always been awful. And now you have this where you're not even giving out. A team's not giving a statement when it's on video for everybody to see. He is straight up spitting in the face of another person.

[Dan Le Batard]

There was also a really ugly clash among supporters in the. In the streets of Seattle. I don't think there's ever been a stranger pair of colors to be seen in the streets fighting than pink and neon green.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, ugly, terrible.

[Zaz]

And it's like they're Dan. They're afraid of doing or saying anything because it might upset Messi. Like, that's why they haven't said anything yet, because, oh, if they scold Luis Suarez, what's Lionel Messi gonna say? It's like, I don't like this. I don't like this team.

[Billy Gil]

No. There.

[Chris]

Should the league outer Miami?

[Dan Le Batard]

The league needs to do something about Luis Suarez's behavior.

[Zaz]

No, they're afraid too.

[Greg Cody]

They will.

[Dan Le Batard]

It needs to be very punitive. That was. That was straight up.

[Greg Cody]

Yes, he'll be suspended.

[Zaz]

Well, what are they waiting for? Any more evidence?

[Dan Le Batard]

Maybe that's what Pablo is going to talk about.

[Billy Gil]

It is not.

[Dan Le Batard]

I can also tell you with conviction, it is not. We know.

[Chris]

When'S the next tournament that this team is in.

[Dan Le Batard]

MLS playoffs would be the next turn.

[Chris]

When's that start?

[Dan Le Batard]

Probably during like a huge football weekend. And you won't be able to watch it anyways.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, nobody will notice.

[Dan Le Batard]

You'll be watching a bigger game.

[Greg Cody]

By the way, they play Seattle again in less than three weeks. So that.

[Chris]

That'll be must winner gets the cup.

[Greg Cody]

No, no. You know what? Let me. Let me say something about all this controversy, okay? The reason people are all upset about Luis Serra's spitting and them losing this game and the brawl and all that stuff is that they continue to underperform on the field. I'll say it, Inter Miami has been a massive disappointment thus far in the Lionel Messi era. Not on the business side. Not on the business side, but on the field. The way they lost in the first round of the playoffs last year, the way they. They lost this league's Cup. Now they did get to the quarters of the. Of the FIFA Club World cup, which is nice.

[Dan Le Batard]

Getting to a Cup final is also no small achievement. They do have two trophies to their name in the time that he's been here. That may not be enough. And I think the GO Gold standard, from what I've gathered from casual fans, is he needs to win the MLS championship in the postseason.

[Billy Gil]

Yeah.

[Greg Cody]

And they failed so miserably last year that this has to be better. The President's cup doesn't matter. Or whatever the hell they call it. The Supporters Shield.

[Billy Gil]

And not the league's Gold cup either.

[Greg Cody]

No, the league's cup doesn't matter. The Supporters Shield doesn't matter. They're nice little trophies. They're not what you hang your hat on.

[Chris]

Why do you want them to win the World Cup?

[Greg Cody]

I want them to win the MLS cup, the league championship of the league they play in, despite all these ancillary tournaments. They need to win the main cup, which is the MLS Cup.

[Billy Gil]

I feel that we are missing what seems like a hugely symbolic sports team in the middle of today's America. Right. Today's America with all its divisions and all the places where, of course, you have to cater to Senor Lionel Messi for whatever he wants because he's the whole reason anyone's talking about soccer. Now, this diminishes mls, but him running that sport while behind a paywall, and while that business doesn't bring the traffic that they thought it was going to bring, they're making a stadium here right near the airport with, like, a ton of precious land, the most valuable land there is, right next to the airport, to support this team that now represents Miami for better or for worse. And we got to do it on our team. That he glosses over a lot when he says he's got a reputation. He bites people like he's a biter. It's not. It's plural. He bites people. Plural.

[Dan Le Batard]

On grand stages.

[Billy Gil]

And he spit in someone's face. And he's representing Miami horrifically here at the. This time.

[Dan Le Batard]

Scored 20 goals last year at this.

[Billy Gil]

Time in America, spitting in someone's face at the center of that.

[Dan Le Batard]

I don't think there's ever a good time to do that.

[Billy Gil]

No. But how many. How many of the greatest sports controversies. I remember Roberto Alomar doing this. This has been done in football a couple of times.

[Zaz]

Romanowski.

[Billy Gil]

Romanowski does it. People who spit in your face, like, no matter what level of savage you are, we all understand that's a disrespect that can't be abided by anybody.

[Dan Le Batard]

I actually think maybe you could argue it was a good time to do that because it was during Miami. Notre Dame. I got around to. I. I was alerted to it on yesterday's show. That we did for YouTube. And it's a, it's a real ugly scene. But I think Zaz is really speaking for the local South Florida fan because one of the tether among all these inter Miami accounts that are complaining is they feel disenfranchised. They feel like they've been boxed out. As this club goes for the marquee and gets influencers on the sideline. They can't afford to go to the games. They don't necessarily think, think that this club is fan friendly. That narrative is out there. And the more unlikable that they become on and off the pitch, the less results that there are. The volume gets turned up on. Hey, we were your day ones before Messi and all that came over here. This was about a community and you've kind of forgotten about that.

[Zaz]

I was weighing the first few years I had season tickets, the first four years of the team. I was weigh in those first few years, what they got going on right now, it's the first year that I haven't been a season ticket holder. What they got going on right now, I don't dig it. Like, I don't like this team. I don't, I don't like this team.

[Billy Gil]

How do you feel about that, Cody? That you've got something happening? What are you laughing about?

[Chris]

Just because it's insane. I was on this team before it became popular. I got the greatest soccer player in the world. Now I'm out. They did too much for me.

[Zaz]

What did they do for me?

[Chris]

The greatest soccer player in the world.

[Zaz]

They haven't won anything.

[Chris]

Yeah, I'm not arguing with you on that.

[Dan Le Batard]

They've, they've won two trophies and I think making it to the, the, the FIFA club.

[Billy Gil]

Billy's right though, Zach.

[Dan Le Batard]

As impressive as anything a, an MLS team has ever done.

[Greg Cody]

More impressive than the two trophies.

[Billy Gil]

Right? But we all look the standard. You guys can't dispute this. The standard is Messi win the big one. I mean, right? Face down to its basest of stupidity.

[Chris]

Well, it's not just Messi and your super friends that you brought in.

[Dan Le Batard]

I want to see, I want to see Messi's face as he scrolls through social media as Dan Lebatard says, Messi won the big one. And he's like, which one is he talking about?

[Billy Gil]

I'm not doing Emma Lesky.

[Chris]

That's the problem. He's not committed to this league, if we're gonna be honest. Greg, you're with me on this one. If he wants, if he wants to cement his legacy, he's gotta win an MLS cup because all the other things that he's done to fail on the lowest of stages, the MLS is an embarrassment. You can't succeed on the biggest of stages and puke all over yourself every year on the smallest of stages, which is what's been going on.

[Billy Gil]

It's not just spitting in the three nothing. You're losing three nothing and you're just three nil, baby.

[Greg Cody]

What I'm saying is that if they won the MLS cup last year instead of taking a national crap in the first round against the lowest seed, if they won last night or Sunday night instead of losing three nil, nobody's It's a minor story. The brawl, the fans brawl, the spinning.

[Billy Gil]

In the face should be a big story. That should never be a minor story.

[Zaz]

You don't think it'd be a big story. If they want three nothing, then they still had the brawl.

[Greg Cody]

I don't think it would be nearly as talked about as now.

[Zaz]

I totally disagree.

[Greg Cody]

Okay. I think what, what, what you're hearing on the group chats with, with Inter Miami fans right now is because they're, they continue to disappoint on the field. That exacerbates everything you're talking about in terms of, oh, they're not fan friendly. They don't treat their fans right. We've been here since the beginning. Everybody would be thrilled if they had won as much as they were expected to when Messi signed with this team. They haven't. They've underperformed.

[Chris]

Then they skip the All Star games. They're at Coldplay concerts, they're buying groceries at Publix. Like, let's focus on soccer already.

[Dan Le Batard]

You know, Olivia loves a challenge.

[Billy Gil]

It's why she lifts heavy weights and likes complicated recipes. But for booking her trip to Paris, Olivia chose the easy way with Expedia. She bundled her flight with a hotel to save more. Of course, she still climbed all 674 steps to the top of the the Eiffel Tower. You were made to take the easy route. We were made to easily package your trip. Expedia made to travel flight inclusive packages are atoll protected.

[Dan Le Batard]

Don Lebatard I feel like we need to normalize saying the scientific terms for organs on the air. Like if someone.

[Greg Cody]

Yes, you know what?

[Billy Gil]

If someone takes a foul ball to.

[Greg Cody]

The penis, we should just say he.

[Chris]

Took a foul ball to the penis.

[Greg Cody]

That free kick hit him right in the cock a doodle doo.

[Billy Gil]

This is the Don Levatar show with the stugats. I can feel the audience. I Can feel the audience, okay, at this point in our careers doing this for as long as we've been doing it, complaining about soccer talk, even if it's a spitter, and Luis Suarez, even if it should be a big story, because it's football, football, football time. And everyone gorges and wants to gorge more on this week of NFL football after the insanity of this weekend in college football. And so excuse me for not bowing at the beginning of this show to mighty football and the specifics of what happened with last night with Belichick, which has no precedent, it has no precedent in the history of American sports that he would allow more points than he ever has in a game.

[Zaz]

Awesome.

[Greg Cody]

Delicious.

[Billy Gil]

And that everybody would watch. It's like watching Bear Bryant or Vince Lombardi or something, just stripped to its nudist. Almost like outside that door that Pablo sniffed out. And that ring camera that Pablo recreated. You know what I learned about Pablo? I asked him this. This weekend, I'm like, when you recreated Belichick leaving the room, did you not think to take your shirt off in the recreation? Or were you embarrassed? And I heard they debated it for hours in the Pablo Torre finds out universe. And he wouldn't do it because he's a coward. He wouldn't do it shirtless. They did think about it, and he didn't recreate it that way. Belichick has never been undressed like that before in the history of us watching football. A coronation, a celebration. He's a. He's a small underdog at home against a TCU team that is usually nationally relevant. And you see right off the bat how far behind he is. Something I thought of last night that I didn't believe a lot of people were thinking of. North Carolina last year produced the single most surprising half of football that I saw in college football. Last year at home, they were losing to James Madison and allowed 52 points at the half against the James Madison team that finished third in the conference.

[Chris]

I mean, I think if you wanted to see North Carolina fail, it worked out perfectly. Right in that. That first drive, all the hype was coming in like, Belichick's gonna come in. He's gonna change everything. Like, I've never seen anything. I can't prove it. And the first drive, they drove right down the field, like, oh, my God, we're great. Like, if you're a North Carolina fan, we're great. Michael Jordan's high five and people, everybody's so excited. And then the rest of the game happened.

[Dan Le Batard]

I gotta tell you, it's Been quite the off season leading into this debut for unc, for Bill Belichick, and a lot of people have questioned his legacy. Nothing has made me doubt his legacy more than him settling on Freddy Kitchens is a good guy to run my offense.

[Zaz]

Why would anyone have expected different? I'm not talking about last night, but like this season, they're going to stink. All right? UNC is going to stink and Belichick is going to stink. And you know how I know this? Because his entire coaching career, if he doesn't have Brady, he stinks.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah, they're going to stink. Yeah.

[Zaz]

And I have.

[Billy Gil]

I have.

[Zaz]

I have actual evidence to support this. If Tom Brady is not his quarterback his whole career, he sucks and they're going to suck.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah. And people are going to laugh at him nationally because he's not likable. Unless you live in or around Boston, you don't like Bill Belichick.

[Zaz]

I don't think they like him so much in Boston these days.

[Greg Cody]

You could be right.

[Billy Gil]

Well, we've never seen. Never. It has no precedent. Bill Belichick unraveling throughout this off season in a way. Like, like everybody's looking like what's happening over there comes to the college game and triggers. Because this, this was the thing that I was thinking about, that I thought was funny is like, oh, okay, look how they do it in North Carolina when it's Chapel Bill for the Deion Sanders celebration. That doesn't look like what Deion Sanders was doing in Colorado. That's Bill Belichick getting in the game with the fame and the name. But through. Through management. Right. Dion did it through players. Belichick did it through management. I kept thinking, do people understand that North Carolina was as bad last season as Colorado was bad when Deion inherited Colorado? What Deion did the first game out when he beat tcu.

[Dan Le Batard]

I've never seen a graphic like that in my life, by the way. I was watching that and I was thinking, man, it's a. This is a really bad quarterback. No. And they put a graph. Damn near two hours after his last completed pass. They put the. They time stamped it. Last completed pass, 8:12pm Eastern is one of the worst quarterbacking performances I think I've ever seen at the P4 level. That was at 9:30pm Eastern. It had been over an hour and 15 minutes since a completed pass.

[Zaz]

Not good, Dan.

[Billy Gil]

But where does the game pass you by the spectacle that his off season was the amount, the cost of what it was to get Bill Belichick and that name to North Carolina people disrespect how hard it was to do what Deion Sanders did. Taking a team in Colorado. That was what this North Carolina team was. And making them beat worse. Making that TCU team beating this TCU team, which created an expectation for last night that while it was erased after the first drive, all of you were on the first drive, like, well, Cowherd. You saw Colin Cowherd's tweet. Colin Cowherd who? His master. The troll business of how do you get the engagement? By being wrong. Because nothing that you say actually matters. Wasn't really sure what to expect from Chapel Bill, but after that drive, I have him as the second best college coach I've ever seen. You think he's trolling just below saving. I think he's trying to be funny and failing.

[Zaz]

I think he's being serious, but I.

[Billy Gil]

Don'T think he minds being historically wrong. I think he said great hyperbole about Arch Manning as well. Louis, I don't know if you ended up finding that. That tweet, but there was a tweet from Colin Cowherd from, I think, 2024. The wrong business pays well. It doesn't matter when everyone's talking. Right? I don't. I don't know. You guys have to. Gilbert Arenas just hire Skip Bayless. Are they together now? Like, that's. That's how. Yeah, that's how that one ages where you just go out at the end trolling people and wrong doesn't. Wrong doesn't end up mattering in any way. They're not. People will still associate Colin Cowherd forever with sports. It doesn't matter how wrong he is. That's just sports people overreacting to thinking that right and wrong matters.

[Chris]

Gilbert Arenas got, like, rated, like a couple weeks ago. Right. That's just done. That was resolved.

[Dan Le Batard]

I mean, he put out. He turned it into content.

[Chris]

Overrated or properly rated.

[Zaz]

Probably rated.

[Billy Gil]

How can you be more wrong than this? This was before. This was when Kyle DeBoer took over for Nick Sam. I'm sorry, Caitlin. The. Who cares?

[Dan Le Batard]

He's got it. He's got to earn it.

[Zaz]

That. That was probably right after the Georgia victory, right? September 28th. I don't know. It wasn't such a crazy thing to say that day. That was a great performance from Alabama, that game.

[Greg Cody]

And it was a year later. You can just say I was just kidding.

[Zaz]

But then they lost to Vanderbilt very next week.

[Dan Le Batard]

Yeah. Alabama's now 5 and 5 in their last 10.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah.

[Dan Le Batard]

According to CFB on Fox on Twitter. Through just 14 games at Alabama, Kalyn DeBoer has mapped matched the unranked loss total that Nick Saban Tallied over 235 games. 4 unranked losses.

[Zaz]

Kaylin DeBoer has lost 4 games so far as coach of Alabama where they've been a two touchdown favorite, lost the game outright.

[Billy Gil]

Saban Saban was 1312 in those games. As a 14 point. As a 14 point favorite.

[Zaz]

That was some performance against FSU that.

[Billy Gil]

So Mike, how did it happen? Because I will get more into Belichick over the course of the show but how did it happen? Did you ever give your public opinion? Because you were talking for five hours on your show and you were also talking here. But I don't think I ever heard publicly. You think that FSU was bad?

[Dan Le Batard]

No, I never got that take out there. I'm grateful because yeah, everything that I had heard from FSU had reminded me so much of when Miami thought that they were good and they would get smacked in the face by bigger teams. From the undersized quarterback saying Nick can't save them now, to saying FSU is the best defense, to shutting the media out and just people reporting on vibes. I thought it was going to be a bad moment yet again for fsu and Mike Norvell couldn't have been more wrong, couldn't have been more stunned by a result. Casianos didn't need to throw Gus Malzahn, I don't know how he's surprising folks with his offense, but Alabama came out completely unprepared to play. And credit to the fans at the newly renovated Doe Campbell Stadium which actually has fewer seats now. They were loud. They affected that game. Acc actually I thought there was going to be a well established narrative going into that Miami Notre Dame game where the ACC was a joke and they performed relatively admirably despite Clemson losing. Losing at home.

[Zaz]

Yeah, that game was awesome. And. And then you see the entire crowd storm the field.

[Greg Cody]

Yeah.

[Zaz]

After the game they got fined.

[Billy Gil]

Right. They get.

[Greg Cody]

They take 50 grand.

[Zaz]

I'm a little conflicted with the storming the field in that spot. The storm in the field jumped the shark so many years ago. It does not have the same meaning it used to. Your fsu, you've won national championships. I understand you were unranked in their number eight in their big bad Alabama. You've won national championships, you're storming the field. I don't know about that.

[Greg Cody]

The only fans who should storm the field at the only time they should do it is if you win a national championship, then there's no more games next week. Storm the field. Do whatever you want. But that for the first game of a season, you're beating a down Alabama team that's about to fire its head coach. Coach a year from now, why celebrate that like you did $50,000. It's ridiculous.

[Billy Gil]

Greg's getting off his old man takes here like he's getting off the storm the field. The notebook. You don't write that in a notebook like you're. You're getting off some serious old man tape.

[Greg Cody]

Well, here. Speaking of old men, Don Shula didn't like it when his players spiked the ball after a touchdown.

[Zaz]

Go on.

[Greg Cody]

And his classic line was, act like you've been there before. FSU fans. You've cheered two champion teams. Act like you've been there.

[Billy Gil]

What are you doing? I've never seen someone go from 13 and 1 to 2 and 10. It's never been seen before. No one expected anything from FSU in that football game. A two touchdown underdog at home. That program.

[Dan Le Batard]

I think I understand Nick Saban leaving that program certainly couches this discussion. But it also isn't a coincidence that he decided to leave when the advantages that Alabama had went away. And parody. And this breathing is crazy. It's crazy. I'm really glad you're distracting man.

[Chris]

Getting him all worked up though.

[Greg Cody]

I'll sit back here until I'm speaking.

[Dan Le Batard]

I hope you're all right. But anyways, you're messing with me now. There's some people that are really reveling in the end of Alabama's dominance. That's a 20 year run. 20 years running the sport. And now they got to deal with almost every other blue blood program in college football having to reshape themselves. I'm going to play this sound courtesy of Barstool Sports. This kind of speaks for where people are with Alabama and enjoying this.

[Billy Gil]

Alabama is officially dead. Dead. It's over. It's over, Alabama, you sucking pieces of living used to sit up there and used to piss on all of us when you beat us. You would say, oh, well, you know, you should be happy. You put up a good fight. You, you, your time. Now you're down here in the suck. How does it feel? And the best part is I know it feels worse for you than it feels for us because you're not used to being here. For 20 years you have lived a charm existence where everything revolved around you. Everything you had, you got everything. And it was at the tips of your fingers. You never had to worry about entering a single weekend. And now every weekend, you're going to feel the existential threat of losing games.

[Zaz]

That you didn't have to think twice.

[Billy Gil]

About in the past.

[Dan Le Batard]

He then later goes on to add, I'm going to drink your tears, urinate them out, and then drink them again.

[Billy Gil]

Can we just put up on Move? Let's put up on the screen as well. Ruben Banes notebook. There it is. You can see it bleeped out. There's the notebook.

[Chris]

That was fun without the F words.

[Billy Gil]

College football's back, though. What do you mean? It's all been F words. What we just did for the last 30 seconds is the. It is. The voice of college football is back.

[Dan Le Batard]

Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo, what are you doing here?

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo? Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up.

[Dan Le Batard]

Well, I do know that to be true. But even during ad reads like Cuervo, I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners.

[Billy Gil]

Sweet, delicious Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion.

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo.

[Dan Le Batard]

So enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo, Cuervo, the tequila that invented tequila. Proximo, Cuervo.com, please drink responsibly.

[Billy Gil]

Cuervo.
