Local Hour: Worst Mistake

Summary

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Local Hour: Worst Mistake

Date: August 29, 2025
Setting: Elser Hotel, Downtown Miami
Hosts: Dan Le Batard, Stugotz, and crew

---

Overview

This episode of the Local Hour centers on two major Le Batard traditions: dissecting the fallout of a massive NFL trade (Micah Parsons) and reveling in the show’s signature blend of sports absurdity, local Miami culture, and spectacular on-air blunders. The team kicks around the implications of Parsons’ trade, debates Dallas’ future, riffs about upcoming Miami football games (and weather), and celebrates the SUI Awards' "Worst Mistake" nominees by playing a highlight reel of the show's funniest screw-ups from the past year. The signature mix of bluster, self-deprecation, and meta-humor is very much intact.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Vibe Check and Friday Dynamics (02:00–03:09)

• The team opens with playful tension about Friday show "vibes."
  • Memorable moment: Threats of "wringing necks" à la Homer Simpson and ongoing lighthearted body-shaming among the crew.
• Quote:
  • "If you say dirty at all this show, I’m gonna wring your neck." – Dan (02:19)
  • "Gonna be a long season." – Stugotz (03:08)

---

2. Micah Parsons Trade: Analysis and Frustrations (09:28–22:41)

The Unthinkable Trade

• Dan describes the rarity of a player of Parsons' caliber being dealt at his age, comparing the event to the LeBron trade.
• “That player, Micah Parsons, does not get traded at that age...He’s LT-ish in the way he can get to the quarterback. You just don’t get to say that about anybody. So that player never gets traded.” – Dan (09:28)

Why Did the Cowboys Do This?

• Dan moves the conversation past "Jerry Jones’s senility" and “wanting attention.” He sees two real reasons:

  1. NFC East rivals have younger, better QBs than Dallas.
  2. Home defensive collapse: the Cowboys’ inability to stop opponents, especially sans Parsons.

• Data Dive:

  • Crew lists Cowboys’ home defensive failures (12:11–13:06):
    • “They gave up 44 to New Orleans, 28 to Baltimore, 47 to Detroit... and 34 to Philadelphia.”
  • Dan references Bill Barnwell metrics showing Dallas went from league-best to worst defense with/without Parsons.

Cowboys’ Strategic Failure?

• Dan frames this as a Jerry Jones legacy problem—comparing to the Herschel Walker trade and bemoaning Dallas’s lack of playoff wins.
• Laments: “Getting Micah Parsons is the hard part. Being so incompetent that you have to trade him because you haven’t built well enough around him is the problem.” – Dan (18:18)
• Stresses how little has changed in three decades of Cowboys leadership.

Jerry Jones’ Bizarre Press Conference

• Jerry repeatedly calls Micah “Michael Parson(s)”; Stephen Jones keeps correcting him (22:04).
• The crew riffs about Jerry's confusion—“He genuinely thinks his name is Michael,” says Dan (22:41).

---

3. Miami Football, Weather, and the 'Event Town' (27:18–34:29)

Notre Dame–Miami Preview and Weather Fears

• Miami’s upcoming showdown with Notre Dame is likely to be rain-soaked. The panel debates if that helps or hurts Miami.
  • Dan: “I like the elements to not be involved at all. I want offense and I want speed unencumbered.” (28:10)
• Crowd energy concerns: Will Miami fans stick it out if it's stormy?
  • "Think we have 80,000 strong of noise for a Sunday night game that won’t embarrass Miami if the rain is so bad that...nobody...would want to go to a football game?" – Dan (30:02)

Miami as an ‘Event Town’

• The group confirms this game is a hot ticket—“I can speak with authority. It's gonna look like Sunday. It's going to look like 2017,” – Host (33:06)
• Pushes for earlier tailgate openings and challenges university leadership to create a better game-day environment.
• Re-iterated: “Miami is an event town...I know the tickets that have been sold for this.” (33:40)

Miller Lite and Miami Tailgates

• As always, Miller Lite is a recurring, light-hearted motif. Crew jokes about tailgate math and the exact number of beers adequate for a crowd (31:13, 34:29).

4. The SUI Awards: “Worst Mistake” Nominee Reel (38:30–55:36)

This is the true comedic meat of the episode, with the crew playing a supercut of the year's best/worst bloopers, misspeaks, and on-air mishaps.

Standout Nominees and Quotes:

• Dan calls a penguin a fish:

  • “To you, what is a penguin – more of a fish or a bird?…It’s got wings, no feathers.” (39:39)

• Dan constantly botches athlete and celebrity names:

  • “Maybe we should get Pablo on here because he's been accused by Marcus Jordan and Larsa Pissing—Pippin, excuse me.” (41:32)

• Stugotz calls Hank Azaria "Frank":

  • "Frank, Frank, Frank, Frank." (46:13)

• John Skipper: pronounced/identified no NBA international names correctly:

  • “If you take the NBA all-stars and march them in this office…Wima get very close.” (43:07)

• Mystery Crate tongue-tied intros:

  • “Pablo, you and three other people—your dream my mouth dream watering...” (50:03)

• Classic Miami inside jokes:

  • Debates about Hollywood Brown’s nickname and confusion about Miami event crowds.

Memorable Exchanges

• The segment is a rapid-fire, self-aware parade of errors and laughter; the crew delights in their own imperfections.
• "This is a safe space for admitting when you made a mistake." (53:50)
• Running gags include the infamous AOL dial noise emanating from Greg Cody’s computer and confusion about iconic sports moments ("Greg Cody thinks he watched Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game. That wasn’t televised.") (54:23)
• Greg Cody, put on the spot, admits: “Maybe it’s a figment of my imagination.” (55:27)

This is the new Fridays. Dan. This fits for me. Dan and Jeremy Friday. I see this, I'm out of here.

[B]

All right. Love you, too.

[D]

Thank you for coming in on your off day to feed your time of the year. Feed your inner thief.

[A]

Tashay and Lebatard. French Fridays. But for Dan, French fry days. French fries and cotay.

[D]

That's good. I like.

[B]

French fries are good. It's not.

[D]

It's not as good.

[B]

Maybe the name, but the product. I don't know.

[D]

No, that's the problem. Yes. It's all in a name. You're correct. The product itself would not be good. A handful of things to say about something that you just hardly ever see. That player, Micah Parsons, does not get traded at that age. I know he's not LeBron James, but one of the reasons LeBron James trade was such a giant story is because that player does not get traded at that age in sports. It's why the Luka thing is such a big story. Because nothing you get back in that trade, nothing you ever get back in that trade is going to be as good as what you already have. That thing is so valuable. The pass rush is so valuable, and he's better at it than anybody. Myles Garrett, to my eye, is better. But by the metrics, Mike Parsons is better at getting at the quarterback with pressure than anybody in the league. He's. He's. LT ish in the way that he can get to the quarterback. And you just don't get to say that about anybody. So that player never gets traded. But I believe everybody's sort of missing why this trade was made. As we're talking about Jerry Jones's senility and we're talking about whether he got along with his agent and a bunch of other things that aren't what I thought this was about. I. And it's not about Jerry Jones wanting attention. The two biggest reasons this happened, and I don't know which one you guys would choose from among these two reasons, but I Believe these are the two biggest reasons. One is the two teams in your division at quarterback are younger and better and are going to be younger and better for the next 10 years. One of them because they have a quarterback who can do it without a lot of help. The other one because he's got so much help around him that they're both going to keep showing that Dak Prescott was drafted where he for a reason. So that's, that's reason number one. Reason number two is this. And I don't think anybody's talking about this particular thing here. Tony, can you get for me please? The game logs from last year for the Dallas Cowboys and what they did at home and the point totals they allowed at home. When it wasn't Schottenheimer rebuilding, It was Mike McCarthy. We're win now off of 12 wins at home. Give me the point total scores and the result of all the home games Dallas played last year. Because I don't know if you guys remember, I don't know what you'd say off the top of your head was the single most stunning result for you last season, but I do remember Saints going into Dallas and putting up 40 something points to beat Dallas was among the most the largest surprises I saw last.

[B]

That was week two. That was the home opener for Dallas and They got beat 4419 to a Saints team that everybody's like, okay, I guess they're decent. And the bottom fell out for the Saints. A little bit of context for Dallas season last year. Eight games with Dak. He got hurt with a hamstring. He was out within those home games. They went 2, 6. They had a 2 point win and a 7 point win. Those are the only wins they had all season. So point totals. They gave up 44 to New Orleans, 28 to Baltimore, 47 to Detroit, 34 to Philadelphia. That was the first game without, without Dak Prescott Cooper rushed through for 45 yards total in the entire game. They, they gave up 34 to Houston, 27, excuse me, 20 in a win to New York. They gave up 27 to Cincinnati, they gave up 26 or 24 and a win to Tampa Bay and they gave up 23 and a loss to Washington.

[D]

And those numbers, when you see what the Dallas defense was doing when Micah was out there, when he wasn't out there, those numbers aren't going to make up what is your architectural gap. Before we get to the meat of this though, you guys have seen some of the large numbers that are being thrown around on metrics by Bill Barnwell and others. Right? I mean, because I can simplify this for you, Bill. I can give you a whole bunch of data that says dig deep on all the advanced metrics and the way these people make measurements. Or I can just tell you that Bill Barnwell says that mathematically, when Micah Parsons is on the field, they are per play the best defense in the league. And when he's not, they're the worst. Like that, like he can do. That's an obvious oversimplification, but he can do it with the numbers. To show you something that's appalling, if Jerry Jones is right now celebrating what has been 30 years of failure for that franchise in a Netflix documentary, and the starting point on that celebration and all of the division between him and Jimmie Johnson is they cannot agree who's responsible for the Herschel Walker trade that brought back the draft picks when they had the genius idea of we're not good enough, so let's trade our best player because we're not good enough. Because they're just doing the same thing here. They're trading their most valuable asset. Because the way to close the gap between Philadelphia and Washington in this, a rebuilding year for the Cowboys is to use those draft picks and try to close the gap. Micah Parsons wasn't gonna. This is the way that Micah Parsons helps you most the next two seasons if you're the Dallas Cowboys, because they're not actually close.

[A]

They were really terrible against the run. They were 29th against the run. And in that division, when you play the Eagles twice and a mobile quarterback and Jaden Daniels twice, Jerry Jones spoke to this. That's why they got Kenny Clark and two first round draft picks. I'm shocked that Cherry Jones made this deal, but also he did pretty well because Kenny Clark does help where they're weakest. And Jerry Jones already said, like everyone assumes we're going to keep these draft picks, we can use these draft picks to add to our team.

[D]

This is Jerry Jones's spin on it. Run defense. You're not stopping Philadelphia from running the ball with or without Micah Parsons. They run the ball. It's why they're champions. They run it against everybody. It's why Jalen hurts looks the way he does. You're right, though, that the problems with what it is that I just said for the Cowboys is it's not just that Philadelphia and Washington are better than you, obviously. It's the way they're better. They're younger and more stable at quarterback. They have a future that doesn't have Defenses that allow those point totals, guys, those were the home games. Your defense. 44, 28, 47, 34, 34, 27. I don't care who your quarterback is. That didn't happen to Pittsburgh when, when they don't get the quarterback, play those numbers at home. That's. I understand Micah Parsons didn't play in some of the games, but that's the problem. Like Dak Prescott can't correct that. Nor can run defense, by the way, like, okay, fine, Micah Parsons, you just. The way that you try to neutralize it is you run right at him instead of trying to. Trying to pass around him.

[B]

And I think a couple years ago there was a bit of a mask on the Dallas defense because they created so many turnovers that, that masked some of the inefficiencies that they were having on corner the safety and defensive line, that it was like, oh, Dallas's defense is actually really good. And then the bottom fell out again for the last two years.

[D]

But let me be clear on what, what we just saw yesterday, because I'm, I'm not allowed to act unsurprised by this. We've been talking for weeks about. Jerry likes the noise of this and then he caves at the end. He always does that. Mike is not going anywhere in the stunning of what happened yesterday because Jerry Jones has to correct all of this one. You just traded away someone that I can absolutely make the argument is the best defensive player you've ever had. I can make that argument now, rest of his career unseen. I can also make this argument. And this is the problem that Jerry Jones has as he refuses stubbornly and arrogantly to let go of some of the reins on his league, as if his family is special about creating football teams. If I said to you right now, I'm going to give any NFL executive that you ever have thought of, incompetent or otherwise, whoever it is, Urban Meyer, whoever it is, I'm going to give you 30 years in that job. Am I getting more or fewer than two playoff wins?

[A]

Yeah, that's a good point. I understand it. That being said, I don't think he did poorly here. If he has to give up a generational player, he did poorly.

[D]

No, getting Micah Parsons is the hard part. Being so incompetent that you have to trade him because you haven't built well enough around him is the problem.

[A]

Have to trade him. They could have paid him. And Micah Parsons statement was hilarious. I didn't make any demands, brother. That's how this whole thing started. You made a Very strong demand. It wasn't a request.

[D]

You have to trade him. If everything else I just said is true, you have to trade him because you're not going to make up the gap with him. Because look at how bad you were with him.

[A]

I'm not going to pretend like I know what is going to happen in that division. Historically, people go from bottom to top a ton.

[D]

Oh, but that defense can get better and the Dolphins can get better without making it the right decision. They're not going to win the championship this year.

[C]

They're.

[D]

They're in play. The standard there is. Every year we play for the championship. They may get better. They. They might like. I really think their defense can't be worse. Like, worse than that. You cannot be. So they get better. They win 10 games and what, Jaden Daniels is still in your division. Now, maybe Jaden Daniels gets hurt, but the Eagles are still in your division. What I was beginning to say about the problem that they have is it's not just that it's Philadelphia and Washington in your division. It's the way those teams play, and they're built like it's not. They're going to beat you this season and they're going to beat you next season, whether Micah Parsons is there or not. Because I don't trust Dak Prescott to be better than what it is that they have now. Both those teams in stability at their quarterback. And you don't either. Like none of you listening to this. If I just make it. Hey, the draft evaluations were right. Skill sets. Jalen Hurts and Jaden Daniels have skill sets that Dak Prescott does not have, made by the measurements that they do at the draft by these scientists who, if I gave any of them 30 years, would win more than two playoff games. Assessing talent. Any of them. Mike Tannenbaum. I give him 30 years. Mike Tannen may have won more playoff games than Jerry Jones in the last 30 executive years.

[A]

He made it to AFC championship games.

[D]

You got to win more than I. And is it two playoff wins? I don't even know. Is it one? Like, how many playoff games have them? It might be one.

[A]

I think they. Romo beat Minnesota one time.

[B]

Has won.

[D]

They beat the Lions. Did they beat the Lions in a playoff game? Whatever the playoff number is, I think.

[A]

We'D know them since there were so few.

[D]

Who is the. Give me the person, the human being that you were to say is the worst football executive in the history of the league.

[B]

Chris Greer. No.

[A]

Joe Banner was pretty bad in Cleveland. Just Holmgren was pretty Bad in Cleveland. Pretty much everybody's been pretty bad in Cleveland except for Andrew Berry. And then he gave out the worst.

[D]

Contract ever at LeBatard show. If I put the worst executive in the history of football in charge for 30 years, would he win more than two playoff games? Yes or no?

[B]

They have four wins since.09 in the playoffs and three since 14, 2014.

[D]

Wait a minute. What?

[B]

They have three wins in the playoffs since 2014. In 2014, they beat the Lions. In 2018, they beat the Seahawks. And in 2022, Dak beat the Bucs.

[A]

On the wild card round. Yeah, I forgot that. Seahawks won.

[D]

So they've won three playoff games.

[B]

I don't think Dak's been there at 14. So Dak, I think, has won two.

[A]

They've never gotten out of the divisional round.

[B]

That's crazy.

[D]

They're living off of 30 years ago. And Billy's worried about Jerry Jones, like, concerned about him. He came in here concerned for Jerry Jones.

[B]

Well, did you see the press conference yesterday of Jerry Jones when he was talking about the trade?

[D]

I saw that. It was 42 minutes.

[B]

Well, Jerry, who likes to get out there in front of everyone to kind of show his face and say, this is why we did what we did was struggling a bit in the press conference where he continuously was calling Micah Michael. And then Stephen Jones had to then come in and say, it's Micah. And then Jerry Jones later on would just continue to say Michael. And then at some point, he would correct himself and say, micah, Michael. No, Micah, Micah. But there was an issue where, you know, kind of confusing the player a little bit.

[A]

He's been calling him Michael for years. Yeah, I think he genuinely thinks his name is Michael the way that you think it's Jordan.

[B]

But I'm telling you, if you look, we can play a game right now. The lips look the same on fight you and failure. Watch my lips. I'm going to turn off my mic.

Here we go.

[D]

Do it again. No, fight you.

[B]

Maybe you can't tell.

[C]

Oh, my God.

[D]

We got to the bottom of it.

[B]

This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugach.

[D]

At the beginning of the Cowboys documentary, Paul Tagliaboo introduced the Dallas Cowboys first round pick Mitchell Irvin, wide receiver out of the University of Miami. Mitchell Irvin.

[A]

Some folks are just bad with names.

[B]

I have a clip of him calling him Michael Parson.

[D]

Ooh, the double of getting the first name wrong and eliminating or adding an S. That happened to me as soon as I got to 50. They gave it to me as a gift on my 50th birthday. Those two things.

[C]

Of all the players that I've ever.

[A]

Negotiated with, Michael Parson is as savvy.

[B]

And knowledgeable and understanding of his financial business relative to football as any player I've ever been around.

[D]

Yeah, Michael Parson. He just traded Michael Parson.

[A]

Michael Parson, I'm sure person is a kicker, right?

[B]

It's a good haul for Michael Parson. Michael Parson is a kicker. Imagine if he was right and he had someone named Michael Parson who was just like, you know, like a scout, team player, whatever. And you know, the, the packers are like, I don't think Jerry knows what he's doing. He's telling us he's trained as Michael Parson. Michael Parson first from Michael Parson and all of A sudden they have the introductory press conference like, who the hell is that guy? He's like, I'm Michael Parson.

[D]

Put it on.

[B]

Michael Parson.

[D]

Put it on. The poll plays at LeBatard Show. Is Michael Parson the name of a kicker, yes or no?

[A]

Michael Parson.

[D]

It's a totally different player. Michael Part. No one fears Michael Parson. Michael Parson could put up exactly the same stat line as Micah Parsons and would be lightly regarded.

[A]

Michael Parson.

[B]

I've got him working in insurance, Mr.

[D]

Parson, just generally in insurance middle management. Like, what is he doing? Or is he selling stuff door to door?

[B]

Not happy.

[D]

He's not happy.

[B]

Whatever it is, Danny's not happy about it.

[D]

Well, he's not happy. It's not inspiring work that Michael Parson does when he goes like you drive.

[B]

By and it's like a state farm. It says, Michael Parson.

[A]

Michael Parson.

[D]

The weather for Miami Notre Dame is going to be scary. It's going to be wet and a lot of thunder and. And lightning is being projected.

[A]

That's the forecast. Now. Forecast can change, but I don't. I genuinely don't know who that helps. If we're judging off a blast here. I mean, it would be easy to say this helps Jeremiah Love, who'd probably run for 300 yards against Miami, but they did reshape their defense. And if the weather is bad, you'd think that means it's a trenches game and the reputation is Notre Dame always has a good offensive line. I would say that Miami is actually girthier, bigger, more athletic on the outside, especially on the edge. That defensive line actually plays to a strength of Miami. You would think just by body types. And the offensive line, as we know, is certainly a strength for Miami.

[D]

Do you guys like these kinds of games? Because I like the elements to not be involved at all. I don't want snow. I want offense and I want. I want speed to be unencumbered.

[A]

I don't want the rain, even though I could see how it might help Miami, just because I think Miami's true advantage come Sunday night will be that crowd with a holiday the very next morning.

[D]

No, that will.

[A]

Nothing hinged. I don't want it thunderstorming on that crowd.

[D]

Okay, well, yeah, I don't think. Think. I do not believe that Miami, the city in its history, has the level of discomfort required when you go out to stay in that stadium full and loud if it is raining the entire time.

[A]

Like if you start covered now, like the, the, the. The seats are covered and that that will help a large chunk. I think like close to 85% of the seats will be covered.

[B]

A small percentage of the lower level will get wet.

[A]

Yeah, but, and, but this, you want people working up a lather throughout the day. And if the weather is bad, I don't know how crazy people can get. But yeah, it's tough to say, look, the quarterback hasn't played for Notre Dame. This is hard. We know that they were a good team last year. We know that they have a good secondary. We know that their running back is really good. We know that they added to wide receiver core that certainly thought of as better than Miami's. I don't really know where the, where this game will play out. If the weather does indeed impact it. I'm just gonna stick to my guns and say we're gonna rip their frickin heads off.

[B]

Miami Hurricanes or either Miami sugar cubes that melt with water. Like what's going on here. Embrace this weather. Say, you know what? I want this bad weather. I want Notre Dame to come in here and be uncomfortable. What are we. What are you. It's gonna rain so we can't go to the game. That's just crazy.

[D]

You guys believe that a crowd that I immerse before the game in two hours of rain so you cannot tailgate, that is milling about indoors before the game to stay out of the weather. You guys believe that we as a city just general temperament of the human beings who go to football games around here. You think we have 80,000 strong of noise for a Sunday night game that won't embarrass Miami if the rain is so bad that it makes it so that nobody who's listening to this inside or outside of Miami would want to go to a football game. Like I'm not even. You understand what we're head. What we're possibly headed toward just because the weather is going to be shitty.

[B]

Dan, I don't think you understand this. But you've been on this side, on the, on the glass side, on the, on the high up side too long. You don't think that there's 80,000 strong that are going to go out there? Have you seen only in Dade where there's a terrible rainstorm and there's people running in the streets, jumping into the water in the streets outside of Club Space. Have you not seen that, Dan? Imagine that times 80,000 with about 8,000 Miller Lights. Okay. Unstoppable force meets immovable object. Bam. That's one miller light.

[D]

It's not enough per person for every ten.

[B]

I'm saying 80,000 responsibly.

[A]

Thank you.

[D]

No, that's too. That's too much.

[B]

That's not going to get people the excited that you think.

[A]

It's going to be one for every.

[B]

Time with the sponsors guys.

[D]

No, but.

[A]

I make jokes about this. It's a. It's a cause close to my heart.

[B]

Thank you.

[A]

And they are the proud sui.

[D]

I'm not making fun. He was nice with the sponsor.

[B]

Thank you.

[D]

He was not nice with the math. And the math.

[C]

Math gets in the way.

[B]

What do you care about the math? Bill Barnwell's hosting the show. Talk to your math friends. Who cares?

[D]

All right.

[B]

Get a nice cold cooler, put some ice in it, throw some Miller lights, put some stuff on the grill. Even if it rains.

[A]

Doesn't matter.

[B]

I saw today one of the craziest things I've ever seen coming in to the studio where I didn't call the authorities, but I did think about calling because I was like, someone's gonna get hurt. Where I was driving past the airport and there was a gentleman whose car was in the lane for like broken down cars and he was in that lane. And then I saw what I thought was him. He very clearly was on, you know, live or he was FaceTiming someone or doing something, screaming at the top of his lungs. And he's just showing off where he is. Which is like you're on the 836 with the airport behind you and there's just standstill traffic. What are we. What's this flex, sir? And he's screaming in Spanish like, ah. Like showing off where he was. And then I think I saw him take a shot and then maybe start smoking a cigar. And I was like, what? What's going on here, sir? This. It's like 7:45 in the morning. What are we doing? And then I was like, I think I should tell someone what's going on here. But traffic wasn't moving. Very crazy Friday for that guy. So far today, what he was doing.

[D]

Is just Miami party.

[A]

Get back in that car and head to Hard Rock Stadium.

[B]

We're gonna need get there by Sunday responsibly.

[A]

That's right. Miami is an event town. I can't speak to what the crowd's gonna look like against Bethune, but I can speak with authority. It's gonna look like Sunday. It's going to look like 2017.

[D]

Is that a happen to know? Hold on a minute. You can speak with authority. That's a different category. There's a happen to know. I don't know what the categories. What's the hierarchy with you on. When you're saying a thing? That would be the equivalent of on my life, I will take away this draft party. On my granddaughter's life, I will take away that draft party.

[A]

Did he. Did he do. Did he host the draft party?

[B]

Oh, yeah. It happened.

[A]

Okay, great. And Graceland's fine?

[B]

She's good.

[A]

All right, perfect. Yeah, I know. The tickets that have been sold for this.

[D]

Oh, my God.

[B]

He knows. He happens to know. Come, everyone, come and listen. He happens to know.

[A]

Do have an.

[B]

Well informed.

[A]

Do have an issue with the. The gates opening. You know, there's certain. The green lot opens up five hours before the regular lots open four hours before. However, historically, the athletic department does put in a call occasionally for the really big games and ask for an earlier. Got to do early.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

This is a challenge to Dan Radikovich in the Miami athletic department to really put the pressure on Hard Rock Stadium. And let's open those gates over there. I need to be there first thing in the morning. I need to stumble out of Las Rosas and straight to Hard Rock Stadium.

[B]

Hummer. Just drive through the gate, let everybody in. Exactly. Right now you're getting the right idea.

[A]

Responsibly.

[B]

Yeah, drive through the gate responsibly.

[D]

I want. Okay. I want to get back to Tony's bad math. I can't do it right now because he had a Miami party starting with 1 in 10 people getting a single beer.

[B]

One tailgate had 8,000 beers. You weren't doing the math.

[D]

I'll get. I'll get back to it. And. And I will get to the SUI Award in a second as well. But before I do that, Big Mac. It's been a while since we heard from Big Mac who is handling things in our carport. He is somebody that. Chris. Chris hasn't done a lot of new imaging. Okay. Some of it you just heard. Know.

[B]

Oh, my God.

[C]

He knew.

[D]

And this. And this is some of his other new imaging. So we're getting Big Mac's thoughts on Notre Dame. Um.

[B]

Big max take of the day.

[D]

I like Miami by a touchdown because they look good. And.

[C]

And Miami remember the last time they.

[D]

Played how nasty the game was.

[B]

17.

[D]

You already know. You already know.

[B]

Big Mac take of the day. I do already know. It's good.

[A]

A touchdown.

[B]

Dan.

[D]

Did you ask him about the weather, though? Did he know what the forecast was? Does that change any of the announcements?

[A]

It doesn't matter.

[B]

You're asking about the forecast. Who cares. I let him paint his product. Bill Kamal over here.

[C]

No, I have to Google it.

[B]

[D]

It's the one.

[B]

He was a weatherman. You guys are making this something that wasn't meant to be.

[D]

It was the one. No, it was the one name. You couldn't choose it. The one in the history of South Florida weather. And I think you did it purposely. I think you did know. I think you did happen to know.

[B]

Why would I do that on purpose?

[D]

Because of you're you.

[A]

No. Billy would be risk averse there.

[B]

Yeah. Oh, wow.

[A]

I just googled.

Tim Kirchen thought you could milk a male cow. I'd milked one cow in my entire life. It was a disaster at Ferguson Farm when my daughter was in the fifth grade. And I said he, meaning the cow was not interested in giving up a lot of milk. He. To which Buster started to scream at me.

I didn't even know that it was only the females that give milk.

[D]

Did you guys know that? I didn't. Of course we did.

Male cows are bulls. Duh.

Let me do it one more.

[D]

So gaslighting. Very unprofessional.

[B]

I didn't touch it. Damn it. And you saw that I didn't.

[C]

Dan Lebatard runs out of words to say.

[D]

I can tell by looking at the teeth.

[B]

That's a tiger shot.

[A]

Look at this killing machine. I've seen this video too. Because my algo is locked in on these man killers.

[D]

So what is this doing? Why is this doing this the way that it is doing it?

[A]

Well, because he's being tormented.

[D]

Your dream my mouth dream watering dream bag.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Dan Lebatard's voice changes.

[A]

This dude no needs to shove this beefy five layer burrito up his butt.

[D]

This is not it needs.

[A]

Yes. It has to happen. It has to happen.

[D]

It's not what's going to make.

[A]

We need integrity college football proof certified.

[D]

Better than pro football.

[A]

Well, I know it won't help it if he. If he just decides to not do this.

Vote for Joe Maurer in 2023 on the first ballot.

[B]

I want to hear the caveat.

I want to hear. I'll hear it. I'll allow the hearing of it, and it's fine. But. But before he gets to the caveat, can you just admit that you're wrong about your recollection?

[C]

Yeah, I was wrong.

[D]

Can you admit that you're wrong in having a Hall of Fame boat that you treat with so little regard, that this is not an indictment of your memory, but it's an indictment in general of how it is that you. These things that you don't actually care whether someone's first ballot or not because you can't remember whether you voted someone first ballot or not.

[C]

I cherish my hall of Fame vote enough to have kept it for a long time, unlike yourself, who was stripped of his vote for malfeasance and in some cases, perhaps nonfeasance for integrity.

[D]

Not wrong.

[C]

Okay. That's what they call it.

[A]

Tomato, potato.

[C]

David Sampson tries to say croqueta.

[B]

Would you offer someone a coretta from a Jewish deli?

[D]

Croqueta.

[A]

Croqueta.

[D]

No, that's not how you call it. A.

[A]

Correct.

[D]

That is not how you said croqueta.

Andrew Hawkins tries to sound cool with Kenan Thompson.

No, I just think y' all are dedicated, that's all. Y' all dedicated to the eight. I'm dedicated to the A being from Atlanta, so. I feel you.

[B]

Yeah, we both two up, two down. Piece up, two down. Is that what it is? Oh, you're from Ohio. Oh, man, my bad. I'm.

[D]

I'm still learning.

[C]

Tony KAD calls Dominique Foxworth Amin.

[B]

He's avoiding the balls.

[D]

Dominique is avoiding the matzo balls, which are the best stuff. That's the Best part of the soup.

[A]

How's the soup?

[D]

You're not gonna.

[B]

I mean, you just call him a mean.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

What? He's an. I mean. Exactly. Thank you.

[A]

The soup. He's also in our panther chat.

[D]

The soup itself, that was for sure.

[B]

And a meme. It was not in the mean. I need a replay. Stumbling.

[A]

How's the soup? I mean, you're not. You want to admit when you're wrong.

[B]

It'S okay with me.

[A]

How's the soup?

[B]

I mean, why would you throw Dominic.

[D]

Got it.

[A]

How's the soup?

[B]

I mean, you're not the soup.

[A]

[B]

I tried to have your back, dog.

[C]

Amin Elhessan tries to say, not my first rodeo.

[D]

Of all the players in the NBA who have had to guard Steph Curry this year, I think Thompson has done perhaps the best job. He's just exact in terms of size, in terms of defense and IQ and all that stuff. But first time at the rodeo. And you know what happens at the first time at the rodeo? Stigots the bull, rides the horns or some shit like that.

[B]

Nailed. That's what happened.

[D]

Dismount on the segment. I've never been to a rodeo.

[C]

Greg Cody thinks he watched Wilt Chamberlain's 100 point game. That wasn't televised. I'm the only one in this room who was alive at the time Wilt Chamberlain's 100 point game. I was seven years old.

[D]

You don't remember that?

[C]

In Hollywood, Florida, at 14:40, watching on a black and white Sylvania television set.

[D]

This is a great. This is a great story here. No, because nobody believes that game happened.

[C]

It's. It's 100 point game and it did happen.

[B]

I thought it was like famously not televised.

[D]

I don't think we have seen video proof of him scoring the 100, have we?

[C]

Yeah, it was. It was. He held up a sign after the game.

[D]

No, but that's not the same. That's so.

[B]

I think there's a Mandela effect going on.

[C]

Yeah, Jessica, I think you think that's a conspiracy theory.

[D]

I think it wasn't televised. I don't think there's a lot of video of that game. I think there's just like one grainy photograph or something.

[C]

I'm just telling you, I watched it on tv.

[D]

I don't trust you couldn't have watched it on tv.

[B]

According to the Library of Congress, the amazing performance wasn't televised. And there's no videotape of the game, only a Philadelphia radio station broadcast. You're full of it.

[D]

You're just making that memory.

[C]

Maybe it's a figment of my imagination.

[A]

Hey, Tony.

[B]

Hey, Mike.

[A]

Hey, man. Summer's almost ending, man. I can't wait. There's no way I am excited about cooler temperatures. But down here in South Florida, that just means slightly less boiling hot. It's been a pretty incredible summer. We've had a parade down here. We've grown our family down here at Meadowlark Media. A lot of exciting things, a lot of memorable benchmarks. And along the way, at almost every step, I've been tailed by that beautiful white can of Miller Light. Oh, that beautiful white or the brown bottle. You can do it on draft.

[B]

Draft is crisp.

[A]
