Dan LeBatard
Welcome to the Big Sui, presented by DraftKings. Why are you listening to this show, the podcast that seems very similar to the other Dan LeBatard podcast?
Stugotz
I'm sorry.
Dan LeBatard
I'm not going to apologize for that. In fact, the only difference seems to be this imaging. I have been tempted in restaurants just walking past tables to grab somebody's fries that if they're just there. That hasn't happened to you guys.
Chris Cody
I've done it.
Dan LeBatard
And now here's the marching man to Nowhere, Fat Face and the habitual liar.
Mike Ryan
This episode is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings. The Crown is yours.
Stugotz
Now, we had a pretty good example of an umpire probably sticking to the letter of the law too much earlier this week when we played that video, the lightning strike that was very near a baseball diamond that resulted in a balk.
Chris Cody
It's a balk.
Stugotz
Rules.
Chris Cody
The rules.
Stugotz
Very unfair. Let me give you a good example of how to interpret the rules here. When there is a loud sound interrupting play. This comes from Wimbledon, and this might be the most Wimbledon stoppage in the history of Wimbledon stoppages.
Chris Cody
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
Stugotz
If you could avoid opening bottles of champagne when the players are about to serve. Oh, come on. I love that it's warm.
Billy Gill
It's the most Wimbledon warning you've ever heard.
Dan LeBatard
Who was the player there?
Chris Cody
Who.
Dan LeBatard
She says, why would you open it right now with the great effing question?
Stugotz
Is that the isolated sound of the pop? All right, well, that's very distracting. You see what happened there? We stopped play. We stopped play because it's a very loud, distracting sound.
Dan LeBatard
Yeah, but it's not just Wimbledon, though, right? Obviously, Wimbledon is the most. Whatever you want to call it, uppity of the tennis tournaments. But tennis as a sport is the most uppity of the sport. And the act that you go uppity or hoity toity. Hoity toity is fine. Billy Gilly, as I like to say, sometimes hoity toity.
Chris Cody
Because I've never heard the term hoity toity or Billy Gilly.
Dan LeBatard
No, Billy Gilly I use with Willy.
Stugotz
Nils never heard hoity toity.
Dan LeBatard
He doesn't know that.
Chris Cody
Literally, this is the first time I've ever heard that selection of letters, words, syllables. It's better than uppity.
Mike Ryan
I was acting all Billy Gilly.
Chris Cody
Definitely better than uppity.
Dan LeBatard
We'll go hoity toity.
Chris Cody
But hoity toity is also the most.
Dan LeBatard
Hoity toity thing in all of sports, is when a server is getting the tennis balls from the ball boys or Ball girls, Like, it's so obnoxious, so condescending.
Mike Ryan
They're like. They're like, you better bounce this to me perfectly. If I have to extend my arm any direction other than right at my stomach, you're fired.
Dan LeBatard
That is not a killing. Ready? Not until the second I'm ready. How will I prove to you that I'm ready? I don't know. I might look at you. I might not. And then when you've got three of them. Why do you need three? You got three tennis balls on your racket. You might just throw one without even looking at it.
Chris Cody
Throw it back.
Dan LeBatard
Why did I. Why did I give that one to you, sir?
Chris Cody
Why?
Dan LeBatard
And then so. And then you're just like, two. You got one in your pocket, you throw the other one back. It's just the. And sometimes, like, you don't even look at the ball boys or ball girls. Like, zero respect for the people that are doing it for you. I hate that about tennis players.
Chris Cody
It is. It does feel very disrespectful. It does. Every time I've ever watched tennis in my life, I think about that.
Mike Ryan
There's a condescension to it. There's like, condescending is the wrong word. There's just like an arrogant arrogance to it.
Stugotz
Hoity toity.
Chris Cody
It's a hoity toity ness that is like, come on, man, lose the hoyt.
Dan LeBatard
And it's only a job you can screw up. You've seen the one video of the one kid ran to his spot just.
Mike Ryan
And I just told Lewis to try to find that viral video of a ball boy distracting the tennis player. Do you have the sound of this, Lewis?
Stugotz
I hate the way that they have to present the balls, too. Hold it.
Mike Ryan
Look. So watch right here.
Chris Cody
We'll just.
Mike Ryan
So you can't hear it, but the kid runs away. He's like, I don't want to make this kid mad. He falls, and the guy looks back.
Chris Cody
Like, what the hell did you do that for? What a save, though, by the kid. Because he can't prove anything. Because by the time he turned around.
Mike Ryan
He was already back.
Chris Cody
I would have looked over my shoulder like, what the hell?
Dan LeBatard
That kid's about to hit his head against the wall and he's thinking, oh, my God, my career is over. Let me just stand up real straight.
Chris Cody
Clearly it would be so easy to.
Mike Ryan
Be likable like, in that spot if you're just the likable tennis player. Like, hey, man, thank you. Thank you. Give him a point. Like, why do you have to be like that.
Stugotz
Alcaraz is super nice to the ball people. There was that great video of him celebrating with all the kids after winning the French Open at Roland Garros. There are some people that kind of stick out on how they. They treat folks. But, yeah, the pomp and the circumstance, which is also, like, hoity and the toity.
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Mike Ryan
What's another example of this in sports, like, where you always just feel a palpable, like, they could do that nicer. I can't even think of one. Because in others, like the ball boys tossing out the footballs. Like, you never see, like, Patrick Mahomes, like, slap the ball out of the way.
Chris Cody
Like, I knocked the towel guy down in the playoffs. It's on YouTube. Like, I knocked the old. Old. I bump them on accident. You were in the playoffs once?
Stugotz
Once.
Chris Cody
It was for a very short time, like, two hours or so.
Mike Ryan
I could see that, like, during a timeout, if you don't want water and somebody's, like, doing the water thing, Water guys get that, like, get.
Chris Cody
I do have. I do have an a hole water story.
Dan LeBatard
All right, so we all have one of those.
Stugotz
Yeah.
Chris Cody
So I'm at practice, and a kid, a young, like, trainer. Like, the young medical trainers are the ones in charge of, like, squirting water, like, whatever you need to drink.
Mike Ryan
Those are doctors, not doctors.
Chris Cody
They're like athletic trainers. Okay. All right. So at practice, we're in camp, and camp sucks, as you know, and we're all fighting for jobs, and this is miserable, and you're away from your family, and it's hot, and coaches are yelling at you.
Mike Ryan
Sounds like some excuses for bad behavior going on.
Chris Cody
Yes, absolutely. But, you know, we're all human. Yeah.
Stugotz
So you've prefaced this enough.
Chris Cody
There's this one, a new kid is. Is at the Browns, and he's. He's doing the water.
Mike Ryan
So I come off shadowing someone else.
Chris Cody
He should have been shadowing. Absolutely. Because every time I try to get a drink, it's just water all over my face. Talk about the worst aim ever, right? So I'm like, okay, no, more like Bobrovsky.
Dan LeBatard
Can you. Can you give us a joke? Like sitting there with your mouth open, waiting for the water.
Chris Cody
So after, like, a couple days, like, it's like, I asked for a drink. It's no. I'm like, all right, just give it to me. Just give it to me. Exactly right? So then it develops into. I'm not even asking for the water. He's just coming like this. So I turn and he Just starts squirting. I'm like, okay. So then by like day five, this.
Dan LeBatard
Is how he likes it. Trust me, this is how he likes.
Chris Cody
He's still there. He's actually like high ranking now. Cause this is 10 years ago. But he tells this story by day five. I come off the field, he does it again. I grab the water bottle, I turn it, I squirt him. All this is a new kid all over his face. I'm like, now how does that feel? Aim the damn bottle. And then I go back in. He's like, I never missed anyone's mouth as a water boy ever again after that. I can't believe you did that, dude. I'm like sniffing water, coughing it up out of my mouth.
Stugotz
Did you get some dab from the teammates? Like, thank you. Someone finally taught him a lesson. Or were you the only person that had this issue on the team?
Chris Cody
I don't know, man. Maybe he was like, he had better aim for the taller players or something. Maybe it was an angle issue.
Dan LeBatard
This man is responsible for the mess in public toilets. Like a gentleman just like this. Who have zero aim whatsoever.
Chris Cody
Come on, man. Billy. A lot cleaner bathrooms. If everyone took that approach.
Stugotz
You were talking about how you went to the movie theater and some would argue mission possible. The final reckoning was the cinematic event of the summer. Some people are arguing it might be Superman. We can get into that in a little bit. I would argue for a much younger generation, even though you're not going to a movie theater for it. Zombies 4, premiering on Disney Channel last night was appointment viewing. Now this, I'm just talking to the dads of children a certain age. I asked Roy before the show if Claire at all got into the Descendants or Zombies. This is a huge booming economy for Disney Channel and a world full of booming economies for that company. They're going on tour, the Descendants and Zombies and everything like that. This is the fourth edition of the Zombies films and Zombies, for those that don't know briefly, it's like High School Musical. Only Zombies.
Chris Cody
Only Zombies.
Stugotz
But then they had to make sequels.
Dan LeBatard
So then the Zombies target audience is like, what age?
Stugotz
5 years old. Said tweens. Teens. But the cast, this is the fourth one. And naturally with Disney movies, the original cast is like 30 years old.
Mike Ryan
Yeah, exceptional. Zed's like 36.
Stugotz
Yeah, exceptional. Zed is paying off his student loans right now.
Mike Ryan
But is he still exceptional? Is he in it? I haven't seen this one yet.
Stugotz
Is in it, but it was mediocre. Very. It was the worst of the franchise. And I don't know if you're being dragged to the Zombies show. Thankfully, there's a cane's game, so it's just going to be a girls thing in my home.
Mike Ryan
That's what I believe is happening. My wife and a few other moms are bringing a bunch of kids. The Zombie Concert and Descendants descendancy. That's one. Like, my daughter was like Princess Red for Chris Halloween. And I don't even know what that is.
Stugotz
You've got kids. Descendants probably has to be a thing in your house because it's like all the great Disney villains, they all had kids.
Chris Cody
I have twin. Twin daughters. They're 10. We had. They sat me down on a Saturday, and I had to watch All Descendants back to back to back. I fell asleep.
Mike Ryan
Terrible.
Chris Cody
They were pissed. And then I had to do it again because I fell asleep too early in the second version of the movie.
Stugotz
So my daughter Julia was asking me, daddy, where are you going? I'm like, I'm going to put laundry away. She's like, but you're missing Zombies four. I'm like, honey, I'm going to end up watching this 45 more times.
Chris Cody
I'm going to be able to recap.
Stugotz
When the embargo is lifted and it's on Disney tomorrow. But let's get to Superman a little bit because it's been subject of a lot of frustrating online discourse, and, like, everything, it's become politicized. First off, I think there's a large portion of the audience that just Superman's not that interesting because he's perfect. We know he's got the kryptonite. He's all powerful. He's the fastest. He flies. He's the strongest. He's got this one weakness. He's got lasers shooting out of his freaking eyes. I think people like their heroes being fallible or having more weaknesses. They like the Batmans of the world a little bit better. And the box office kind of bears this out. And Superman has failed time and time again. After numerous reboots by Warner Brothers, it wasn't too long ago that Henry Cavill was Superman. Well, now we have a new Superman. James Gunn, who did the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, is reviving Superman for his whole new vision of the dcu. And I don't know if you've seen the discourse around it, but people are saying Superman is too woke because James Gunn came out and said, this is an illegal alien that is coming to the. And I'm kind of. I know where you think I'm gonna go with this. Which is blame the right for saying that this is too woke and doing the same song and dance. I'm bored by that. And I just come to expect that I don't even have a take for it anymore. I'm gonna pivot and turn my attention to James Gunn and say, like, you're trying to do your own grift on what's going on in the country right now. That's a fine. That's a fine, Izzy. By saying this is an illegal alien. And everyone's like, man, I can't wait to watch this illegal alien ruin the billionaire's plans. You cannot. And James Gunn flatly said, this is an illegal alien story. Miss me with that one? Illegal aliens right now aren't straight, white, all powerful beings that only have one weakness to invoke. That is so lazy. No, Superman isn't something that an undocumented alien in this country is going to identify with. And shame on you for even drawing parallels to that. I don't think you can. When ice is raining on horseback, your park, no one's like, man, Superman has it just like this. He's being targeted just like this.
Chris Cody
I thought Superman was from Cleveland.
Stugotz
No, he's from Smallville, Kansas.
Chris Cody
Right? That was Kansas.
Stugotz
Yeah, small.
Chris Cody
Well, Smallville, Kansas, Small is a big mural dedicated to Superman in the Cleveland airport. Maybe the inventor, maybe the guy who guy wrote the comic, created Superman, is from Cleveland.
Stugotz
I've been to Wamego, Kansas, and they claim a fictional character. They claim Dorothy from the wizard of Oz. Yeah, they claim to be the hometown of Dorothy. And once a year they have a big wizard of Oz festival where the surviving Munchkins come and get treated like royalty.
Billy Gill
And you've been there?
Stugotz
Yeah, because my daughter was super into the wizard of Oz. When I was a Browns fan, I went to Kansas City for when the Browns opened up week one at Arrowhead, had an amazing experience. The Kansas City Chiefs fans are spectacular, Billy. As you know from your time at Arrowhead, those fans are special, real special fans. And it's a really special game day environment. But I made the drive from Kansas City to Wamengo, Kansas, which was about two and a half hours to get to this middle of nowhere place. We'd go to this wizard of Oz museum. They have a yellow brick road and everything like that.
Chris Cody
That's pretty cool.
Stugotz
Actually.
Chris Cody
It is, but I. Superman is from there as well.
Stugotz
But your claim to fame is a fictional character as well.
Dan LeBatard
The video that was accidentally playing on my phone was of Andrew Wiggins, who Went to the University of Kansas. There you go.
Chris Cody
There's the full circle moment. Shoop Hawk is right.
Stugotz
Jerry Siegel created Superman. He is from Cleveland.
Chris Cody
Wow. There you go.
Stugotz
I mean, you would know the Rust Belt. You should.
Chris Cody
That's what you know. My hometown is called Johnstown, Pennsylvania. You know who created Spider man where he was from? Cleveland, Johnstown, Pennsylvania. So we have a mural of Spider man as well.
Billy Gill
Two for one there.
Chris Cody
There we go.
Stugotz
So are you in on Superman at all? He's supposed to be top of the heap of a superhero, but I think something happened generationally where people kind of aspired to that perfection when Superman had his moment and became top of the heap. Right. But it became less and less interesting to have basically this dude. One famous weakness.
Dan LeBatard
But I just think people don't like journalists. And they do like billionaires, which is why they like Batman over Superman.
Chris Cody
Iron Man.
Stugotz
I never really thought about it that way. Hey, everybody, it's Mike down here in South Florida. As the audience well knows, we've been celebrating a proper championship and we've been enjoying every minute of it. And by my side throughout that entire championship celebration has been Miller Light. Yeah, I wanted to make my championship time a Miller time.

And now that I'm about to travel during the summer, you can rest assured I'm going to be having plenty of Miller Lite along the way, because that's what summer is all about. And since 1975, Miller Lite has been right there in all those memories. For you listening right now, it's the 50th anniversary of Miller Lite.

I'm telling you love sugar daddy.
Mike Ryan
I like stuck in your teeth like you can't chew them. They're like impossible to chew. They are impossible.
Dan LeBatard
That is every day.
Chris Cody
Stugats this is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats.
Stugotz
But I mean, there's a reason why they've tried to revive the the series time and time again cinematically. It just doesn't connect with audience. The audience doesn't have the connection points to Superman because how can they? He's infallible. He's perfect. He's even got the moral high ground. Maybe James Gunn tries to do something different with it. I'll wait for the word of mouth because I kind of seen polarizing reviews and I think maybe the reason for that is how politicized this movie has become lately, which, I mean, you want to talk about it like an innocuous superhero to politicize.
Dan LeBatard
I was going to say it seems like it has the most room for maneuverability. Like you could create as many storylines around him because he is so, quote, unquote, perfect. You can create, you know, fallacies. You can create bad things about him as he's going through the human experience on that side. But having not really gone through a whole bunch of the DCU movies, I don't really know how they treat it.
Stugotz
Well, I mean, you could start over again because they're restarting this thing for like the third time in our lifetimes. But an Immigrant Tale is where you miss me. Some underdog story. Given everything that's going on right now, it's actually lazy and a little irresponsible of James Gunn to invoke. Could you say that one of his weaknesses is other people because of misinformation about spreading rumors against him? I'm curious to see if that's where James Gunn takes it. I think there's more interesting stuff there. And I get what he. James Gunn is often on the right side of stuff. James Gunn is an ally, and he tries to project that he's on the right side of things.
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Stugotz
But. Yeah. Not the right side of the political spectrum. And I think in an effort to try to be that, he missed the mark and didn't realize how patronizing a remark like that would be given the current climate.
Dan LeBatard
Why is Billy the person who knows most about Kansas City people?
Stugotz
No, I said he would know because he did God bless football last year. He's been out.
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Stugotz
Went out there because of the kickoffs feature. The reigning champion. It's going to be in Philadelphia this year, but Kansas City, usually a lot of the seasons have been kicking off in Kansas City because they've been reigning champions, but it's a special. I love Kansas City and the fandom around it. I think it's. If you're a football fan and you want to do a tour of American football cultures, Kansas City is damn good.
Chris Cody
They're really nice. They're very welcoming.
Stugotz
Yeah.
Chris Cody
If I was Superman, I'd be an athlete. I wouldn't bother my time, waste my time kind of saving people. Right?
Stugotz
Well, you would have to. You would have to really downplay.
Chris Cody
Yeah. I mean, I tone it down a little bit, but, like, come contract year, like, I would ball out. Yeah.
Stugotz
You try to play every UFC fighter.
Billy Gill
Like, take it down.
Chris Cody
Nah, I don't get hit in the face.
Stugotz
But if you're an NBA player, maybe mix in like a 3 for 16 from the field one day. But you got to pretend like it hurts.
Billy Gill
But he can jump buildings in a single bounce, right. So, like the hop. The hops that he has, I think it's a single bound, bound, whatever.
Dan LeBatard
It should be. Bounce. It should be.
Stugotz
I don't. He's bouncing before he's flying.
Billy Gill
What is a bound?
Stugotz
Dude, I only knew like an ebb. I only knew bounds as a jump because of Superman track.
Dan LeBatard
I like that. I like that. Change up, though. He becomes an athlete that hates journalists.
Stugotz
Dude, he could be a.
Chris Cody
Like a double athlete. Right. And then just fly from game to game. And then like, how are you getting back and forth so fast? Like, ah, private. Maybe that's what Dion really is. Yeah. Maybe he's Superman. Yeah. And that's why he has losing records, because he's like, I can't let people know I gotta keep it, you know? Yeah. No, that makes sense. This year's got to turn it on though, right? For sure. Yeah. Colorado got to turn it now. We got to be Superman this year. Yeah. I mean, athletes do have the closest thing to superpowers in some ways.
Stugotz
Speak for yourself, huh?
Chris Cody
I mean, I don't really have a superpower. Mine would be foot quickness, speed. Yeah. It would be like my ability for my feet to move, really.
Billy Gill
Like the Flash.
Chris Cody
I don't know how that translates into saving anyone's life. Yeah.
Dan LeBatard
I've seen people on the Internet that can float. So I think dancers have superpowers. I think that superpowers.
Chris Cody
Yes. That is. I think teachers have the superpowers. Really? Yes. The firemen and the firefighters. I agree.
Stugotz
Police officer, who would you nominate? And this is such a. No, I was going to say who's this? Superman in world athletics, but I don't want to do that. Forget I even said I think you want to. I don't want to. Last night I was locked in on zombies 4 a little bit until I decided to do something else. But when I put my daughter to bed, I caught up on the it's always sunny premiere. 17 season strong. Great premiere. And I was also also watching the World Series of Poker because one of my friends made it to the top 317. Albert de Strade, formerly of Survivor Arrested Destrade. He did. It's a famously. The buy in for the World Series of poker is $10,000 and it's been frozen there since the 1970s. So anybody can play.
Chris Cody
Right. And with $10,000.
Stugotz
With $10,000.
Chris Cody
Yes.
Dan LeBatard
Sponsorship.
Stugotz
Yeah.
Chris Cody
He made the top 317. Yeah.
Mike Ryan
So out of 9,700.
Stugotz
Yeah.
Chris Cody
That's pretty specific percentage that cashes.
Dan LeBatard
So that's why.
Stugotz
Yeah, there's tears.
Chris Cody
Okay.
Stugotz
So if you think about it, every.
Dan LeBatard
Number is a very surprise pool that.
Stugotz
He ended up clearing on a $10,000 investment. He got $40,000 in prize money. Not bad for. For a couple of weeks out in Las Vegas. Good work over there. But Chris, who knows my friend Albert a little bit, was also following along in his progress. And I didn't know this about Chris, but Chris considers himself a poker shark and he wants to play in this.
Dan LeBatard
Hang on, hang on. This is how I got introduced to Chris Cody, his dad, Greg. You guys know Craig?
Mike Ryan
Yeah, you met him.
Chris Cody
That's how I got introduced to him, too. His dad works hard his dad vaguely.
Dan LeBatard
As a way of introduction, told me about Chris. Not face to face, but told me about Chris. Oh, my son Chris plays poker. I think he's going to go pro. That's how I thought Chris Cody was going to be a professional.
Mike Ryan
I still to this day, like during the summer around World Series time, I play poker. I play online a little bit. I go. I play tournaments at the Hard Rock every once in a while and I've come in third place at the Jeff Konai.
Dan LeBatard
Is that winning?
Mike Ryan
I got, I got like eight grand and like a big guitar that I still have like doing nothing with. That's winning like the Hard Rock guitar?
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Mike Ryan
I mean, no, third place I didn't win, but I. I mean you won't. No, I made a lot of money.
Stugotz
This is your campaign to be on the celebrity poker circuit. You haven't really made that circuit.
Mike Ryan
I said conine one.
Chris Cody
No.
Mike Ryan
I fancy myself someone who can play cards. I mean, I don't think I have a job. So like it's something where if this all went away, I might try to do something like that. But you know, I don't really have.
Dan LeBatard
Everything we've ever won from a poker tournament, put it together, start a poker tournament and give him away his prizes.
Mike Ryan
I probably have like $30,000 in career poker winnings. Like I've won like eight grand at that one. I've. I've won a couple other turn. I've like won tournaments before where I'm like chopping with one other person.
Dan LeBatard
So you've thought about that before. Because 30,000 is just a number to pull out of the.
Mike Ryan
I'm just pulling out a number of like the total. But I've also played a lot of tournament. I'm not saying I'm like this huge profitable person a lot of tournaments.
Stugotz
So you're going to try to do the WSOP?
Mike Ryan
I would, I mean obviously 10,000. I don't just have 10. Like if I did something like that.
Stugotz
Sounds like you have 30,000 lying around.
Mike Ryan
No, I mean that's just. Steak is a website you can go on.
Chris Cody
How much for that guitar?
Mike Ryan
What I would do since I have what would like, you know, I would probably go on Steak where people can like, you can like, like good players do this of like I'm selling 30 of my action and people will go on this website and like, oh, I Wanna. I have 5% of Phil helmet for 25. That's what I mean. I think I could get people that.
Stugotz
Would be down to recoup my investment a Little bit.
Dan LeBatard
Mike would.
Mike Ryan
You're a gambler. You'd throw in 500.
Stugotz
I would support you. I'd sponsor you with a promise that I can maybe recoup. I'm an action junkie. I'd watch you. I'd rather watch you play poker than play it.
Chris Cody
500.
Dan LeBatard
Let me see your face.
Mike Ryan
See, I'm already. See, I'm already like at 25 in a thou. Like, I already have $3,500 and I haven't even started trying to gather.
Chris Cody
Yeah, that was good. If you gave away 25% for $500 you've already given.
Mike Ryan
You have two people that have done 5% saying Izzy would be 2500 a.
Chris Cody
Piece, whatever that percentage, that would be 5%. Wait.
Stugotz
Okay, this is my favorite. What side of the bench are they skating to?
Chris Cody
You ever play poker now? I'm questioning whether or not.
Mike Ryan
Percentage.500 is of 10,000. That's the percentage you would get of my winnings. That's how it works. Like whatever you put in, the percentage of the buy in, that's what you would get back. If I want.
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Dan LeBatard
Nailed that, though.
Stugotz
Yeah. I'm going to get an ROI on this. Why don't you do it next summer?
Mike Ryan
I want. I've been saying to myself for like four years, next summer I'm going. Because what happens is, is this time of year I'm so into poker, and then when the summer ends, I kind of fall out of it. So then that's the time you need to be putting in the work to.
Stugotz
Go, don't do it next summer.
Chris Cody
I'm a flag football World cup next summer Olympics. Yeah, you're going to win.
Mike Ryan
And I'd have to be gone for, if I played well, like a couple of weeks.
Chris Cody
So it's.
Dan LeBatard
You think there's going to be enough to talk about with the World cup that we can't discuss? Him going to the poker tournament.
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Stugotz
The eyes of the world are on the US Next summer. I do think the World cup is going to kind of hijack the conversation a little bit next summer. Although I thought the Club World cup, which is supposed to be a warm up for a Fritz, he won a set there.
Dan LeBatard
That's all I asked, is to extend this match so that when I get home, the Sinner Djokovic match is still going on.
Stugotz
All right. I thought the Club World cup would be more of a talking point because it's in the United States, because it features some of the biggest clubs in the world. And this show has totally ignored it. I'VE wanted to talk about it the entire time. And here we are. The final is in New York and it's Chelsea versus psg. Two glamour clubs and no one's really been interested in this. And it's not just engagement on, on sports content, it's also in ticket sales. They've been terrible. I told you before, I used to work with Chelsea. So I'm plugged into all the supporters clubs. Every supporters club in the nation that is major got offered free tickets by FIFA to go to the semifinal and the secondary market, depending on who's playing in it. The real Madrid ones down here in the Brazilian clubs. Miami's been a really good market for the club World cup, but nationally there have been some really pitiful crowds.
Dan LeBatard
Miami was great because the Brazilian crowd was great. You could predict that one. I don't know if the New York, the MetLife crowds were ever going to be feel like a real World cup crowd.
Stugotz
And they do the thing where they put it at 3 o' clock in the afternoon because they want to make sure that Europe can tune in, which.
Dan LeBatard
Is the biggest problem here is you're talking about clubs. It's even like it's so easy if you're not a soccer fan to just latch onto your country and just, hey, of course, usa, whatever. Or even if you're, you know, an anti USA guy, then with these clubs, it's so specific. Like I was a Chelsea fan a few years ago and then I lost interest in Christian Pulisic and then he left anyway. And then I'm just like, man, there's nobody left on that team that except.
Chris Cody
For what Cucarella they've rebuilt, they would.
Stugotz
Actually be like this. Chelsea is one of the strangest.
Dan LeBatard
But my point being is that in the history of sports, even I am not locked in to Chelsea right now. So you would have to be a real fan of these clubs or one of these clubs to really follow it. Go out there and make a whole event of it. I don't know if it makes that much sense to debut this here.
Stugotz
Oh, there's so many new PSG fans too. So many people became PSG fans in the last. Well, PSG had a different business model before they had Mbappe, Neymar and Messi on the same team all at the same time. For over a decade. They were just trying to get the biggest stars on the planet to come play in a league that wasn't very competitive in France and they would never have the success in Europe. And then what's funny is they get rid of Neymar, they get rid of Messi, leaves, and Mbappe finally goes to Real Madrid. And not only do they win the Champions League, finally they get that monkey off of their back. They trounced teams, they destroy teams. Everyone wanted to make fun of inter Miami for losing 4, 0 to PSG in the Club World Cup. Inter Milan lost 5, 0. Did you see what they did to Real Madrid in the semifinal? Another 40 trouncing. In fact, Inter Miami had more possession because PSG really took their foot off the gas. But Inter Miami had more possession against PSG than Real Madrid did. This run that PSG is on is incredible.
Dan LeBatard
And their best player is Dembele.
Stugotz
I would argue Hakimi, but these aren't household names. At least not yet. But if they keep winning like this, they might be. Chelsea really tore themselves down in the ownership change after Abramovich was forced to sell the team. Rightfully so. The American owners had a strange business model. They bought a bunch of players, they hired a bunch of different managers. It's finally worked and it's shown you if you have unlimited resources, you can turn it around. And they got a damn near $90 million in prize money. So they've dug themselves out of the hole. And they could improbably, after being out of Europe, find themselves here in the span of four years, go from European champions to world champions. So I'm going to be locked in on that on Sunday.
Dan LeBatard
It doesn't exactly set up the World cup very well.
Stugotz
No, it doesn't. And these games have been. I don't know if you noticed, it's hot outside. It's crazy hot. You have all these cooling breaks. All these clubs have been complaining about it. You have teams. It's a little soft because it was 87 degrees in Cincinnati when Dortmund did this, but the head coach came out and said, we're going to have our subs not even be on the bench. They're going to watch from the locker room, which is one of the softest things I've ever seen in the history.
Dan LeBatard
I understand that stuff, though, so much more, man. Like the Stefan Diggs. That's the hottest I've ever been. Stuff like I just played in a football tournament in Chicago and day one was three games over the course. We think we started at 10:30 and then the last one was at four something. So three games and it was 90 plus in Chicago and zero cloud cover by the end of the third game. We had one teammate who looks like he's in better shape than Me vomiting everywhere and had to have IV and couldn't even play.
Chris Cody
The second steroids. Go ahead.
Dan LeBatard
The second.
Mike Ryan
So he looks like he's in better shape.
Dan LeBatard
Clearly not well, I mean, let's just say he looks like he should be in more cardiovascular shape than me. And the second day, I only run.
Stugotz
When I'm being chased.
Dan LeBatard
I cramp up like crazy. And the second day, she drink more water, I felt. Thank you. I felt like every step I took, I was getting punched in the stomach. And like, I told Hawk this story earlier about me dropping a pick six, like a sure pick six. And I remember as I was approaching it, being like, ouch, my stomach hurts. And I was just like, I have a million reasons as to excuses as to why I dropped it. None of them.
Mike Ryan
DBs can't catch.
Dan LeBatard
I'm telling you, bro, I was linebacker, whatever. The heat does something to you. And it's not just that day. Like, the next day, it lingers. Man, I get those Buffalo Bills now in that heat.
Chris Cody
No, it's valid. When we would play in Miami, and I always wanted to play in Florida because this is like the mecca of special or like receiver, cornerback. It was like, I'm not good unless I can play in Florida. So, like, from high school, when I got out of high, when I got out of college, while I was in the NFL, I was always trying to get down here. And we had. We would play the Dolphins, and I had to bring three uniforms because I would sweat through them like I was. It was like, that was just through.
Stugotz
The prep, knowing that Kevin Hogan was.
Chris Cody
Your quarterback, just like, bro, we're gonna. I was just sweating the fact that we were gon get our ass kicked as bad as we were. But no, it was.
Stugotz
You almost won that game.
Chris Cody
I got. I got used to the heat since being down here in the last three years. And it's crazy because up north, to your point about Cincinnati, whenever you're playing youth sports or any kind of thing, it's like, hey, you got to hydrate, you know, make sure they get hydration breaks, get water. It's too hot. We can't practice. And my son got down here and played tackle football for the first time. It's been three years. They have yet to take a break because it's hot.
Stugotz
Yeah, they don't.
Chris Cody
It hasn't. I swear, it hasn't even been mentioned. Not a single time. His first game, I had to go sit in the car because I was so hot sitting on the side. I'm like, these kids are playing in this. It boggles my mind.
Dan LeBatard
I've never noticed the difference between sitting in the sun and sitting in the shade than I did at this last tournament. It's like, oh, my God, I'm going to die.
Chris Cody
Oh, my God.
Dan LeBatard
Life.
Mike Ryan
It's such a huge discovered shade.
Dan LeBatard
It's wild. It's wild.
Stugotz
We need an executive order for more shade.
Billy Gill
We would do two a days in. In high school football. And it was like, you can't get water. No, not like, don't. We got a break for water. You guys are not getting water.
Stugotz
No. Water was a sign of weakness. Thank you.
Chris Cody
And that's. And in Florida, you're literally playing with death. Yes, but everyone's used to.
Stugotz
But we all lived.
Chris Cody
You all lived. It's crazy. I don't live down here.
Dan LeBatard
I've been hospitalized for cramps. But I lived.
Chris Cody
Hey, you lived. I lived. You know, Don LeBatard, no one else.
Dan LeBatard
Here is willing to do a Trump or a Biden.
Billy Gill
That's not true, Dan.
Dan LeBatard
Okay, Tony, you can catch a thousand impersonations.
Chris Cody
That's not bad, man. Finally.
Stugotz
Pretty good, Stugach. Yours is terrible.
Mike Ryan
You just gotta get a little redder, a little pinker. You're right there, man.
Dan LeBatard
Yours is not that.
Stugotz
You're biting me.
Chris Cody
What do you mean?
Stugotz
Oh, his is good.
Mike Ryan
That's actually not bad.
Chris Cody
Not terrible.
Mike Ryan
That's not terrible. We gotta come together.
Billy Gill
A little Southern, little Bush.
Chris Cody
A little George Bush in that one. This is the Don lebatar Show with the Stugats.
Stugotz
We were listening to the new Clips album. First clips album in 16 years. Dropped this morning, so their second album. And cocaine seems to be a prevalent theme. Not surprisingly enough, I've been informed to celebrate the occasion of Merry Clipsmas. Tony has a top five. What's your top five?
Billy Gill
I've got a top five list of artists that would make you want to quit your job and start selling coke.
Chris Cody
Okay.
Dan LeBatard
Mike Ryan has a number one suggestion on that list that we saw earlier in Wimbledon. But he's not a rap artist.
Stugotz
No, it's not. But how. How is it every time a camera cuts a Leonardo DiCaprio, he's doing that thing with his nose and his mustache. He's doing the exact same thing. He's got the sunglasses on. He just delivers on the narrative around him every time.
Billy Gill
Not great.
Stugotz
Never disappoints. Leo DiCaprio.
Billy Gill
All right, we've got one Oli and a top five. You guys ready?
Dan LeBatard
Give me the list one more time. It's top five rappers that.
Billy Gill
That will make you want to quit your job and start selling coke because it sounds so.
Stugotz
Because they make sound so awesome, so.
Billy Gill
Glorious and so great and so et.
Dan LeBatard
Cetera, which it's not specifically coke. Okay.
Billy Gill
All right. In the Oli, this one may not be for some of the older guys, but if you know, you know. Stove God cooks.
Chris Cody
No idea. You could have said Stew Gotts. And I get to say, go look them up.
Billy Gill
Stove God cooks.
Stugotz
Stove God cooks. Yeah.
Chris Cody
Stove got Cooks. Your list is off to a bad start.
Billy Gill
No, no, Trust me, when you listen, you'll understand.
Chris Cody
Okay.
Billy Gill
All right. Number five, Miami's own Rick Ross. Again, the perception. I was going to say the perception.
Chris Cody
Okay.
Billy Gill
A lot of it. Wrestling.
Stugotz
Makes me want to be a parole officer.
Chris Cody
Yes.
Dan LeBatard
He's a wrestler.
Chris Cody
Yes.
Billy Gill
Different song. Number four. Raekwon the chef.
Dan LeBatard
Yes. A lot of cooking going on with these Coke.
Chris Cody
Who is Raekwon the chef?
Stugotz
What?
Chris Cody
Just kidding.
Stugotz
You sound like Dan at the super bowl at circa a couple of years ago. Who is Raekwon the chef?
Chris Cody
That's the top two will determine if I like this list or not.
Billy Gill
Number three. This is three guys.
Chris Cody
Wait a minute.
Billy Gill
Part of a group. What happened?
Chris Cody
You already gave us three. How is this number three?
Billy Gill
Stove got cooks.
Stugotz
Keep up.
Billy Gill
Number three. Number three. Griselda. Benny the Butcher.
Stugotz
Conway the Machine.
Billy Gill
West side Gun. All three. Talk about, you know.
Chris Cody
This is a very new list.
Dan LeBatard
It's like your chef. Is this like your 2 weeks notice? Are you telling us that you're making a career change here?
Stugotz
Number two. He's got 30,000.
Billy Gill
The Snowman, Young Jeezy.
Stugotz
That's number two.
Billy Gill
Number two.
Chris Cody
Number two.
Billy Gill
Number one. Merry Clips. It's the clips.
Stugotz
Yeah, well, specifically. Push it.
Chris Cody
Push it. Yes.
Billy Gill
Obviously. Malice.
Mike Ryan
No, Stitches.
Billy Gill
Stitches. I saw him on. On IG Clean. He's coming up with a. With an album again.
Stugotz
Yeah. He says he's clean.
Billy Gill
I was like, huh?
Stugotz
95.
Chris Cody
Why are we talking about clean?
Dan LeBatard
What is that Miami sound like?
Chris Cody
Yeah.
Dan LeBatard
No, no. Billy's right. You can't be clean and come up with a new album. It's gonna be so boring.
Stugotz
Billy, did you see what's happening with the Fast and Furious franchise? I guess movies are your. Well, Vin Diesel came out in Los Angeles and announced to the crowd that Paul Walker was returning to the franchise.
Chris Cody
I did see that. That's big.
Stugotz
And for the final installment of Fast and the Furious, they're going back to the streets.
Chris Cody
Wow.
Stugotz
No more of this outer space stuff. We're going back to the heart of what made this franchise great street racing. Back to the streets of la.
Dan LeBatard
Katy Perry.
Chris Cody
I mean, but the last one, spoiler alert. Ended with, like, a big cliffhanger where, like, a dam was about to burst. So.
Stugotz
Well, once they fix that dam, I.
Chris Cody
Don'T know how we're gonna get back to the streets from there.
Dan LeBatard
But was in space or.
Chris Cody
No, the dam was abroad.
Stugotz
I'm glad that they decided to dial it down because some of the other stuff that they were workshopping was they were legitimately considering a crossover of the Jurassic park and Fast and Furious franchise. I would actually would have been down for that.
Dan LeBatard
I would have watched.
Stugotz
There was a 21 Jump street met a black thing. That seemed really interesting. That was going to be a crossover where the guys from 21 Jump street were going to join. No, not. Not the original guys talking. Jonah Hill and Channing Tanner. My name's Jeff. They would become Men in Black agents. And I actually think that'd be great. Greenlit that one. That one would have been great. Vin never looked more Italian.
Dan LeBatard
He's Italian.
Chris Cody
He's Italian.
Stugotz
Tony, not just your top five, which left everybody confused. I gotta look up Stove Got Cooks.
Billy Gill
So.
Stugotz
But earlier in the show, we also mentioned Hoity Toys, which is a very white person saying. Yeah, and you came armed prior to us saying hoity toity with 10 white people sayings.
Billy Gill
Yeah, because Hawk and I, we were talking like a couple months ago where you said something, some sort of white phrase that white people kind of coin. You said they slap when they said X, Y, and Z. I think it.
Chris Cody
Was Y. I oughta.
Billy Gill
Y, I oughta. Okay, so it was like, man, white people snap when they said X.
Chris Cody
It was spitting when they came up with exactly. So bars.
Billy Gill
What I did is I came up with the top 10 of white people sayings.
Dan LeBatard
Not five OLIs and a top five.
Stugotz
No, there better not be a Stove Got Cooks in this list.
Chris Cody
There's also Jay Z should have been on your top five. He should have. But I.
Billy Gill
As I was thinking about how many.
Chris Cody
Coke dealers became billionaires. Sure. He's literally maybe the number one coke rapper of all time.
Dan LeBatard
Does it count if it's crack?
Stugotz
Second?
Chris Cody
Of course.
Stugotz
Well, there's also Joey.
Billy Gill
That's why Stove Got Cooks.
Chris Cody
You know what?
Stugotz
Now you get it.
Chris Cody
You sound like the government that.
Billy Gill
Yeah, I didn't like that.
Chris Cody
That tore down our communities, man.
Billy Gill
Keep an eye on that.
Chris Cody
The same thing. Izzy, go ahead.
Billy Gill
Number ten.
Mike Ryan
Two minutes for this.
Billy Gill
Number ten. No, Sherlock.
Chris Cody
That'D be a number ten.
Mike Ryan

Chris Cody
Better. Wild. We got good ones.
Stugotz
I'm buckling up.
Chris Cody
All Right. I got chills with that one.
Billy Gill
All right, number nine, you're on thin ice, buddy.
Chris Cody
Yeah. Oh, wow. Damn. Good one.
Billy Gill
Number eight. Cat got your tongue?
Chris Cody
I like that.
Dan LeBatard
But definitely white.
Billy Gill
Number seven. You're barking up the wrong tree, pal.
Chris Cody
Yeah, a lot of white confrontation so far.
Billy Gill
Number six. Get a load of this guy.
Chris Cody
Whoa.
Stugotz
I like that.
Chris Cody
The goal fight.
Billy Gill
Number five.
Mike Ryan

Billy Gill
Number four. Hold your horses.
Chris Cody
Oh, hold your horses.
Stugotz
On my list being held.
Billy Gill
Number three. For Pete's sake, peeps say.
Chris Cody
Cause it is this peep.
Billy Gill
Number two, it's not my first rodeo. And number one, let's take a peek. Oh, yeah. You and what army.
Chris Cody
Also translated to black people is you got me up. Yeah, a lot of those. Actually, you could kind of a lot of translations. For sure. Those are good, But I think 70% of them are like, right before you fight. Right before a white guy fights these. Yeah, it's all confrontation.
Dan LeBatard
Who is this, Pete? Why is it.
Mike Ryan
I got it, I looked it up. Apparently Pete is.
Dan LeBatard
It's.
Mike Ryan
It's a replacement for God's sake or Christ's sake. And it's believed to be a substitute for God or Christ to avoid using the name in vain.
Dan LeBatard
Tony, this is. This is a very thing. I was very much confused by this growing up. This statement in. In Spanish.
Billy Gill
Yeah.
Dan LeBatard
Which translates to what?
Mike Ryan
Barbara or Barbaro or who.
Dan LeBatard
Who is this Barbara? And why are we always asking her to settle our shit like that? I had no idea what that was about. Somebody help me out with that.
Chris Cody
Can I throw in some honorable mentions?
Billy Gill
Yeah, of course.
Chris Cody
Cruisin for a bruising.
Dan LeBatard
Oh, that's a good ol.
Stugotz
Good one.
