The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz XX
[0] You're listening to Draft King's Network.
[1] Now's a good time to remember where the story of tequila started.
[2] In 1795, the first tequila distillery was opened by the Cuervo family.
[3] And 229 years later, Cuervo is still going strong.
[4] Family owned from the start, same family, same land.
[5] Now's a good time to enjoy Cuervo.
[6] The tequila that invented tequila.
[7] Go to Quervo .com to shop tequila or visit a store near you.
[8] Quervo, now's a good time.

[14] This is the Dan Levatore show with the Stugats podcast.
[15] I feel like I have aired Stugats in not getting to this before now, but I have read over the course of the weekend and people expected us to start the show with it today that Taco Bell has added a burger.
[16] Wow.
[17] There has been a burger.
[18] Oh, Chris Cody's face has, he's not here for the Taco Bell burger.
[19] It doesn't look like from his face.
[20] I'm with Chris.
[21] Like, you know, stay in your lane.
[22] I go to Taco Bell.
[23] I want tacos.
[24] I don't want a burger.
[25] I go to Burger King when I want a burger.
[26] I'm not going to doubt T. Bizzle because they don't really disappoint me ever.
[27] They're fries.
[28] If you've had that, like, you would think, oh, the fries at Taco.
[29] They're pretty good.
[30] So I'm not going to doubt them.
[31] I will try it.
[32] But I will say, you sang burger from Taco Bell.
[33] It does make, it makes me go, oh.
[34] Like, the way earlier would tell.
[35] Like, it made me go, hmm.
[36] Right.
[37] Like things from the weekend that I've heard that make me go, hmm.
[38] That's what this is.
[39] Put it on the poll at Lebitard Show.
[40] Which would you like less?
[41] A burger from Taco Bell or a taco from Burger King at Lebitard Show?
[42] I'm not going to doubt T. Bizzle as well because McDonald's had some mighty wings, some hot wings for like a limited time.
[43] And those jokers were slamming.
[44] What year was that?
[45] I think it was 2020, maybe.
[46] But you go to McDonald's for burgers, chicken nuggets, perhaps wings if it's on the menu.
[47] would not order a taco from McDonald's.
[48] You would not.
[49] Wings.
[50] I don't think you go there for wings.
[51] I try them out.
[52] Okay.
[53] But I mean, what's weirder?
[54] Why are tacos any weird than wings?
[55] I'm not trying a taco for McDonald's.
[56] Okay, but I got that.
[57] I go to Taco Bell.
[58] But why would you say you go to McDonald's possibly for chicken wings, but not tacos?
[59] That's where you're drawing the line.
[60] I'm just saying if I go to McDonald's, I'm going through the drive -thru and there are some new menu items and one of them is chicken wings.
[61] Perhaps I will try it because they have a longstanding history McDonald's does of delivering great chicken.
[62] And so perhaps I would try it.
[63] It's in addition to the menu.
[64] I would not try a taco.
[65] No, the McChicken is fantastic.
[66] Chicken nuggets are great.
[67] I don't care what's in it.
[68] I'm good with it.
[69] I'm right there with you.
[70] But this is a practice that is followed by, like, Jack in the Box.
[71] They do tacos.
[72] They have other dishes that they have in there, and it's like the most normal thing.
[73] But Jack in the Box feels like a real grab bag, you know?
[74] So the burger I'm looking here is more of like a sloppy Joe than it is a burger.
[75] It's like the - Oh, a ground beef burger?
[76] I am in on this.
[77] Yeah, it's like a ground beef burger like Picadillo, like a sloppy Joe.
[78] Taco meat.
[79] Yeah.
[80] I'm in on this.
[81] Does that, okay, but what are they calling it?
[82] Are they calling it a sloppy Joe or are they calling it a burger?
[83] I'm seeing the Bell beefer, but I don't know if that can be true.
[84] Let's give a salute to the brother around the world, whoever you are, who probably made these all the time in the back break room for Taco Bell and ain't getting no damn credit for them.
[85] Salute to you, brother.
[86] Because a sloppy Joe's not a burger, right?
[87] Put it on the poll at Levitard show is a sloppy, well...
[88] I mean, it's a sloppy Joe.
[89] It's not a burger.
[90] A burger has to be a patty.
[91] I mean...
[92] Not even close to guys.
[93] A sloppy Joe is not even close to a burger.
[94] It's got all of the properties of a burger, except the meat is mushy instead of a patty.
[95] It's like a third cousin.
[96] It's got okay, but it's got all of the same properties except for the one, and you're out here not even close.
[97] A French chef could call it a deconstructed burger.
[98] Oh, have you guys...
[99] Oh, wow.
[100] Sorry, I got to interrupt you with this.
[101] A few locations offered a bell beafer, surf, and turf deluxe, which is a combo, which is fried shrimp, tuna, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, and the beef, rice, all together.
[102] Where does the tuna come from?
[103] I'm just reading.
[104] I'm just reading on a long job silver.
[105] Which added fried shrimp and a scoop of tuna on top of the beefers, lettuce, and cheese.
[106] Disgusting.
[107] For that reason, I am out.
[108] Long John, Silver.
[109] Long John Silver is where Stugats said he was going for his fried shrimp.
[110] All of Stugats' thoughts are stuck in 1990.
[111] No, no, no, they're still doing stuff.
[112] No, they are.
[113] Yes, they are.
[114] No, they were.
[115] They wrapped a NASCAR like a couple races ago.
[116] Captain D's.
[117] Apologize, man. When's the last time you were at Long John Silver's?
[118] The last time I was in the move for fried shrimp, I mean, it's been a while.
[119] You doing a word association with fried shrimp and Long John Silvers.
[120] I was fishing for the seafood of fast food.
[121] You know what I'm saying?
[122] That's what I was fishing for.
[123] And I came up with Long John Silver.
[124] It's that a Red Lobster.
[125] And Red Lobster, that's not fair to them.
[126] They're not fast food.
[127] I don't drive through Red Lobster.
[128] I mean, sit down.
[129] It's a sit -down dinner.
[130] Red Lobster is, I guess, more bankrupt than today's Long John Silver.
[131] I just don't think that any of us think.
[132] of Taco Bell and Surf and Turf.
[133] That is not Sloppy Joe's, not Surf and Turf.
[134] I'll go.
[135] The way you guys reacted to Burger, I would go that way with Surf and Turf at Taco Bell.
[136] Like, that is not, that seems dangerous.
[137] That seems like Salmanilla.
[138] That seems like not a good idea.
[139] The tuna is just terrible.
[140] The scoop of tuna.
[141] Like, where it's Taco Bell?
[142] You can fry anything up.
[143] All right, I trust you.
[144] You're not going to screw up the fried shrimp.
[145] but the tuna, this could be dicey.
[146] There is not one, not one, Long John Silver's in Miami -Dade County.
[147] Well, is there one in Florida?
[148] Yes.
[149] There's one at Broward in 4 -41.
[150] Broward keeping Long -John Silver's alive.
[151] Miami -Dade said, nah.
[152] You don't wrap a NASCAR with Long -John Silver's if there isn't Ah, Long -John Silver in the state of Florida.
[153] It would be weird.
[154] Really odd.
[155] I just can't believe that Long John Silver's is still a thing.
[156] I really can't.
[157] I mean, just, I think we can all agree.
[158] Fish, fast food, bad idea.
[159] Really?
[160] Why?
[161] The filet of fish rocks.
[162] And I'm sure there was a Suggots over there that would have been like, I don't think I want fish from McDonald's.
[163] Well, they knocked it out the park, didn't they?
[164] Mm -hmm.
[165] And it was a legacy menu item.
[166] Yep.
[167] You can get away with it as an item.
[168] I'm talking about it as the foundation of your business, a freezer full of fish fast food.
[169] bad idea.
[170] Just all bad.
[171] That's why Stugats can only summon long John Silver and red lobster as his seafood habits because you need fish prepared properly.
[172] It's dangerous.
[173] You want to hear a sentence that's a real sentence that you never thought you were here before?
[174] Me and Mike went to the Sizzler for lunch.
[175] I've got nothing bad to say about the Sizzler.
[176] Nothing.
[177] Is there salad bars still a kick -ass bargain?
[178] There's salad bar.
[179] There isn't salad in this thing.
[180] Not a salad was seen.
[181] It was really like a taco stand slash chili stand slash I made nachos.
[182] It was a nacho bar.
[183] Yes, that's why it has always been the greatest of the salad bars.
[184] That is the reason.
[185] There was more ice cream than lettuce.
[186] That is why it's my favorite salad bar and has been since childhood.
[187] My parents, both of whom have been overweight all their lives, called it throughout my childhood the greatest.
[188] salad bar in the world.
[189] You want your hard -boiled egg with a little gray in it?
[190] Come on over.
[191] That's how you know it's good.
[192] A little bruising of the yoke.
[193] Put it on the pole, please, Juju.
[194] Is Sizzler giving you a hard -boiled egg that has a little gray in it?
[195] We enjoyed our time at the Sizzler.
[196] Don't knock Sizzler.
[197] Don't knock it if you haven't tried it in the last 25 years.
[198] I don't have anything bad to say about the Sizzler.
[199] I will not blaspheme.
[200] against the Sizzler, I'm here for all things Sizzler's salad bar, or as I like to call it, uh, chocolate fountain.
[201] What they also forgot to mention was it was in Utah.
[202] Yeah.
[203] It was not here in Florida.
[204] We weren't even, we were headed to an Applebee's.
[205] And then as we were driving to the Applebee's, I was like, make it right!
[206] Make a right!
[207] Is this real?
[208] Is this a mirage?
[209] No, it's a Sizzler.
[210] And I've always like, my relationship with Sizzler now is like driving past a building and being like, I used to be a Sizzler.
[211] The Anthony's coal file on Kendall.
[212] to be a sizzler.
[213] Put it on the poll as well, Juju.
[214] Did that used to be a sizzler at Leviton.
[215] 10 -127.
[216] It was right there.
[217] This is South Florida.
[218] It used to be a sizzler.
[219] This is replete.
[220] South Florida.
[221] I don't think there.
[222] How many functioning sizzlers are there in South Florida?
[223] Dude, not in South Florida, I don't think.
[224] Not in South Florida.
[225] Like, I didn't know it was still around until I stepped in one.
[226] Had there been people there, they all would have looked at us, oddly, too.
[227] But, no, I also, like, Pizza Huts do this to me. I'm pretty sure.
[228] down in Westchester, there's a former pizza that's now like a real estate office.
[229] That happens all over South Florida as well.
[230] As of 2020, there was one sizzler restaurant in the state of Florida.
[231] Kissing me. One sizzler in all of Florida?
[232] One sizzler in all of Florida?
[233] That's what it says here.
[234] That seems impossible.
[235] So you're telling me there are more, you've stunned me today.
[236] Kissing me. There are more long john.
[237] Silvers in Florida than Sizzlers.
[238] Put it on the poll as well.
[239] It just needs to be too.
[240] At Lebitard Show.
[241] Yeah, that's it.
[242] At Lebitard Show, put it on the poll.
[243] What do you believe to be more of in South Florida?
[244] Long John Silver's or Sizzler?
[245] Because I think Sizzler is going to come back there as people are going to assume that they're more Sizzlers.
[246] I'll tell you this.
[247] Last year, 2023, U .S. sales only, Long John Silver's did $328 million.
[248] one of their best years ever.
[249] I mean, check it out, long johnsilvers .com.
[250] Go ahead and tell me how much Sizzler did last year in sales, because I am surprised that's $328 million.
[251] Yeah, you think there are a lot of sizzlers in Rio de Janeiro?
[252] You never know.
[253] Outback is massive in Brazil.
[254] Outback is like the number one restaurant in Brazil.
[255] 1 ,000%.
[256] That's not a joke.
[257] Word association now.
[258] Brazil, not even.
[259] Outback.
[260] Yeah, not even wax.
[261] Outback.
[262] Okay.
[263] I believe you.
[264] That's not a sizzler, though.
[265] Outback, there are a number of American things that get, I was surprised in Beijing at the number of American things all over Beijing.
[266] Starbucks is kicking ass in Beijing.
[267] U .S. sales, sizzler, $204 million.
[268] Oh, look at this.
[269] So Long John Silver's kicks the ass of the sizzler.
[270] And the sizzler consistency is key.
[271] Each and every hot wing I got from the bar had the black stuff in.
[272] it like just that black stuff you don't want of your hot wings oh my god consistency Pizza Hut how is Pizza Hut they're bringing the they're bringing the buffets They're fighting fighting yeah Sneakily sneakily they're beta testing bringing the salad bar back making Pizza Hut a dine in experience because I can speak for anybody the pan pizza after you take your bucket pin over to get stamped the 101 104 Street like the pan pizza from dining in a pizza hot slaps way harder than anything they could ever do with delivery.
[273] Absolutely.
[274] After a Little League baseball game, we're going to Pizza Hut.
[275] Oh, my parents will hit up the salad bar and I'll get that pan pizza.
[276] Bring that back, Jack.
[277] That is all I did throughout my childhood.
[278] That was the greatest of delicacies when Dad would take us over to the Pizza Hut.
[279] But I did not have Pizza Hut still in the game fighting with a dine -in experience.
[280] That is not something that I...
[281] Your pizza better be pretty damn good if you're trying to lure people out of the convenience of, hey, just bring that to me over here.
[282] You're telling me it's better there and they don't have a way to deliver that same pizza?
[283] Pay and pizza is so much better at Pizza Hut.
[284] They just went away from the Dine -in model.
[285] They're zagging when everybody else is zinging.
[286] And the chandeliers in Pizza Hut.
[287] Oh, my God.
[288] So fancy.
[289] So fancy.
[290] Fight in the good fight.
[291] But you literally, literacy is down because they stop the bucket program tie in with Pizza Hut.
[292] The chandeliers at pizza.
[293] Hide of opulence.
[294] Stugatia for my friends over at SimplySafe.
[295] If you're like me, you're constantly thinking about the safety of the people and things you value most.

[308] Don Lebertard.
[309] Surely, every time you're watching this, you recognize that your wife is laughing, that she married, she married Larry David.
[310] Yeah, I do.
[311] Yeah.
[312] One of the great characters in the history of television, in my humble opinion.
[313] And to my credit, my personality...
[314] In my humble opinion, followed by, to my credit.
[315] It's amazing.
[316] It's just amazing.
[317] It does predate curvy your enthusiasm.
[318] Stugats.
[319] Oh, wow.
[320] I'm not going to say, Larry David.
[321] patterned himself after me. All right, put it on the poll, please, Jude.
[322] You did Greg Cody, copyright being an asshole long before Larry David.
[323] This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats.
[324] Did you guys find it interesting at all given that Adam Silver couldn't get these players to play in an exhibition that was the All -Star game and it became very loud around basketball why we can't get these guys to care.
[325] To see Yokic clearly enjoy winning a bronze medal more than he seemed to enjoy winning a championship, and to see Kevin Durant, after they beat Serbia, say, to a room full of his teammates, we'll remember this, this comeback for the rest of our lives, to see the greatest care in a way they didn't at the All -Star game when they were celebrating what was a regional sport compared to how it is you're playing it now against the world.
[326] I was legitimately surprised that the care level was in a place where I was watching Kevin Durant and Yokic be more joyous than I've seen them be while conquering what is the Americanized version of that sport.
[327] Well, you mentioned the All -Star Game and the issues with that.
[328] I sincerely hope Adam Silver watched these Olympics, took that all in, saw how much they cared, and is going to take a note from the NHL.
[329] We talked about this briefly last week, but they're doing the four nations as opposed to the All -Star game, which they've constantly changed the format, and it's unrecognizable from what it used to be, and the hockey players, they care more than the NBA players have seemingly about this, and they're just deciding this little break in the middle of the season, we're going to wrap ourselves in these flags, and we're going to go for it.
[330] I really hope the NBA decides to do something like that.
[331] And international basketball, it's not the easiest thing FIBA has a ton of different competitions.
[332] If you have another marquee event outside of the world championships and the Olympics that can get people talking about national team basketball, I think that would be great for the game.
[333] They cared and it was very cool to see them care.
[334] They were also playing many of them in their last Olympics, presumably.
[335] LeBron James, Teff Curry, Kevin Durant, not going to play again.
[336] But it was really cool to see him care.
[337] I would guess, Dan, I have no idea of knowing, obviously, that whether it's just, or whether it's any guy on the U .S. team, they would trade that gold in for an NBA championship.
[338] I would guess.
[339] Okay.
[340] And you've been wanting to do that show since last week.
[341] I'm not trying to do a show.
[342] I'm just saying I would guess most of those guys would.
[343] LeBron would trade it in for a fifth.
[344] Perhaps, but what I was watching from a Kevin Durant who I would say has sort of been ransacked into, if not a bitterness, a fighting of the internet mentality that has made Kevin Durant seem less joyous than usually people who love basketball the way that he loves basketball are.
[345] The last 10 years of watching Kevin Durant is to watch him love this sport and like next to nothing that surrounds it because of how people behave as if they know more or care more about the sport than he does.
[346] It's been weird to see one of the greatest I've ever seen like ground down fighting the internet in the modern.
[347] age in a way that makes him not seem unhappy because he's happy when he's playing basketball.
[348] Like, clearly, he loves to who.
[349] That's not up for dispute.
[350] But the rest of it, he can do without.
[351] It was like we had Calais Campbell on with us last week, and he says the same thing that Ray Lewis says.
[352] Sundays you get for free.
[353] You're paying me for all the bullshit from Monday to Saturday.
[354] Like all the meetings, all the garbage, but I love playing.
[355] For it to be so pure that Kevin Durant is saying he's going to remember that for the rest of his life.
[356] When I'm sitting, here telling you, I watched it.
[357] I'm not going to remember the comeback against Serbia for the rest of my life.
[358] That's not something that impacted me the way that it impacted Kevin Duran.
[359] I found it interesting when it's a guy, well, okay, he's done everything.
[360] He's won everything.
[361] There's no feeling in that sport that he has not felt, right?
[362] No, wrong.
[363] This feeling was different for him.
[364] Play that.
[365] Come on, man. How can you not celebrate a win like that?
[366] Look at this.
[367] You know what I'm saying?
[368] Like, that's what it's about.
[369] You know what I'm together as one in the other side of the world like this.
[370] Start USA Chance, our section, start USA, man. Especially tonight, man. So we gotta celebrate.
[371] I'm not gonna act like this night.
[372] You know what I know we wanna wanna go, but you got to celebrate the small moments too.
[373] The worst way to game like this kind of brings you to the closer.
[374] Guarantee everybody here, they'll never forget about this night.
[375] Everybody here gonna remember this night for the rest of their lives.
[376] That's how special it is.
[377] because we came back and we showed how together we were in our four quarter.
[378] It was incredible.
[379] Let's show as well and play as well, Yokic celebrating again.
[380] This is the bronze medal.
[381] Like, he won the championship as the big star on the Nuggets, and this is the bronze medal.
[382] Look how happy he is.
[383] This is mostly B -roll in a different language for the audio audience, but...
[384] Jory translates, Stan.
[385] Yes.
[386] Yes, well, drinking and singing in chorus with your brothers.
[387] I'm having beers with the boys always translated in any language.
[388] Mike is so right.
[389] You don't need to explain joy.
[390] I mean, you just know it when you see it.
[391] Unless they're German.
[392] Good point.
[393] And sometimes French.
[394] I am also noticing for the first time in this video that of the dozens of people there, for some reason, Yokic is the only shirtless one.
[395] Everyone else has kept their shirt on.
[396] He's decided to take his shirt off, and I will again say, Stugats, that as I look at that, if you had asked me at any point outside of the 50s, if that could dominate basketball, I would say, no, that will never be something that can dominate basketball.
[397] Looks like me with my shirt off in the club.
[398] Not you.
[399] It looks like me with the shirt off in the club.
[400] But that's what's going on here.
[401] I think to answer your question about why does he seem more joyous, look at what he's surrounded by.
[402] He's surrounded by his homies, his friends.
[403] He comes over here and plays with the people they signed to the contract.
[404] Like when I come to Miami, I go out sometimes to have a good time.
[405] But if I was to ever go out with Mike or Tony, bro, we are living the spot.
[406] But damn if we got to go, as long as we can understand, brother, we got room to celebrate.
[407] Those are his boys, is what you're saying.
[408] Doing it with your boys feels better than doing it with a bunch of people that you just happen to play with.
[409] Bingo.
[410] Nailed it.
[411] I'm really happy about the general Olympic experience.
[412] It wasn't too long ago where we were all.
[413] complaining like this is boring the stars don't want to do it we're not sending our best guys and team usa especially in this country did a really great job of engaging those talents building a really good strong program and making it something that was a desirable thing for these superstars and the rest of the world they always cared there were international competitions in which you thought that the main reason the united states didn't win is because they didn't care as much and it's really refreshing to see people care this much about this competition the Olympics, the way that they do all of them.
[414] I was watching a jump off over the weekend.
[415] It was happening in between the U .S. Women's National Team Gold Medal and the gold medal basketball game for the men's.
[416] There was a high jump competition.
[417] As I understand it, the TV was on mute, but it was being explained to me. They tied.
[418] They could have split the gold medal, meaning they each get a gold medal.
[419] They decided, no, let's have a jump off where there is one clear winner and one silver medalist.
[420] And it was the U .S. against New Zealand.
[421] I think actually ended up winning the gold.
[422] And I was wondering, like, why?
[423] Do you not like the other person?
[424] Because that would be the reason.
[425] That would be my motivation.
[426] I'm not splitting this with him.
[427] Didn't U .S .N. tied with gold medals with another country in the total world.
[428] China.
[429] Yeah.
[430] So that means if we would have just taken that tie, we would have won it.
[431] Yeah, it would have been 40 and a half.
[432] It's a good tie.
[433] We had more medals.
[434] We had my medals.
[435] But to like what Mike is saying, that's why I agree with Greeney.
[436] That Steph Curry shot was the greatest shot in U .S. history because all these other shots happened while the America is watching.
[437] Your team is watching Utah is watching versus Chicago or some shit.
[438] Nah, the entire world was sitting there waiting for us to fail.
[439] Can you imagine all these shows today if we would have lost?
[440] Steph Curry saved us.
[441] The number that that game pulled in was insane.
[442] I saw people saying like 22 million on average watch.
[443] that game.
[444] Those are numbers and you cannot even comprehend.
[445] And I thought the broadcast was also pretty enjoyable.
[446] Throughout the entire Olympics, maybe it's because I'm just coming from, I have to hear Reggie Miller on every game.
[447] Mad respect, incredible, but come on, I'm at my wits end with this.
[448] I thought Dee Wade was super refreshing to have his perspective because he was an all -time great, but he's around still an era that you can consider contemporary.
[449] So you have that perspective.
[450] I thought he brought out the best in Noah Eagle.
[451] I really think that we were all and amazement as Steph Curry was doing those things that I didn't really catch it in the moment and a great call you kind of catch in the moment so I'll talk out of both sides of my mouth here but revisiting what Steph Curry did because I was at a bar that was super loud no way eagle killed that call he was awesome there when when Seth Curry was going off I thought he brought it laughed a little too hard at Dee Wade's jokes one too many times I was just like I know come on I knew that's where you were headed and I agree with you wasn't that funny he said a go That's great.
[452] I think the French, I saw this clip, like, I don't even know if it's a French broadcast.
[453] And as someone that doesn't like misinformation, but there was an international broadcast that said, The Devil named Curry did it to us again.

[470] Our Panther Group chat, we're confident against the lighting.
[471] This is a different team.
[472] You're a Panther group chat, though.
[473] No, I think.
[474] No, but dude, you're so wrong on that.
[475] We've been terrified at this team forever.
[476] And I think there's a different energy where the Panthers, they want the lightning.
[477] Stugats.
[478] I want T -shirts made for this Panther run.
[479] What could be this Panther run?
[480] Our Panther group chat, we're not afraid of the lightning.
[481] That's a tagline for World RR3.
[482] This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats.
[483] Time now for Stugats' weekend observations.
[484] It is time for Stugats to share his game notes.
[485] No one in the media will tell you what happened better than my boy, Stu.
[486] Weekend observations, brought to you by Miller Light.
[487] Great taste, just 96 calories available for delivery.
[488] Dan, the weight is over.
[489] It's been months since the last whistle blew.
[490] But now, the pads are on.
[491] Rookies are out to prove themselves.
[492] Veterans sharpening their skills.
[493] Quarterbacks that make you go, hmm.
[494] Position battles.
[495] old faces, new places, and Dan, just like that.
[496] Make no mistake about it.
[497] Preseason football is back.
[498] Excited?
[499] I was not excited.
[500] You're now, though, right?
[501] No, not really.
[502] That 2017 commanders late.
[503] Somewhere Pat McAfee is wondering why Asia Wilson is allowed to say bitch, but he can't.
[504] soccer in America.
[505] If you want something done right, really this is a lesson for all of America in all things, not just soccer.
[506] Leave it to the women.
[507] That's right.
[508] Yeah.
[509] We'd all be better off.
[510] We would.
[511] Yes, but you wouldn't have what happened in NASCAR.
[512] You'd be denied that.
[513] That picture of Steph Curry shot over Victor Wembeyanama.
[514] Hey, France.
[515] Hang that in one of your fancy You didn't want to say the Lou?
[516] I did not want to say the Louvre.
[517] I didn't know how to say I was not confident saying that's the same.
[518] That's the one, hang that one in the Louvre.
[519] You wanted to go fancy, schmanty.
[520] He was afraid of the word museum, too.
[521] I was.
[522] Did it say Louvre in the script?
[523] It did.
[524] I crossed it out.
[525] Yeah, I crossed it out.
[526] I put fancy schmancy museums.
[527] Museums.
[528] He was scared of so many of the things there.
[529] Put it on the poll, please.
[530] Does art scares Stugots?
[531] You did wrong.
[532] So hang that in the lavre.
[533] I wasn't sure I thought it was that.
[534] Hang that in the louvre.
[535] It would have been great.
[536] If I catch a foul ball in a baseball game.
[537] Wrong sad.
[538] I'm not giving the ball to a little kid.
[539] I caught it.
[540] It's my foul ball.
[541] You know what the effing foul ball stands for, Dan?
[542] That kid.
[543] I'm not giving it my ball.
[544] I mean.
[545] No, that's not right.
[546] That's not how you should behave with.
[547] the kid you don't give the kid a ball because he's a kid okay but you don't catch the ball if you want the ball you don't say bleep that kid either uh you're right i wouldn't say you did say well i was just making a joke the eff and foul ball yeah yeah yeah but actually saying this yeah right yeah not sure you believe me no step curry generally don't you're talking clutch american hero create a three dollar bill and put Steph on it.
[548] That's a good idea.
[549] That is a good idea.
[550] Put it on the poll.
[551] Should we put Steph Curry on a $3 bill?
[552] Larry Byrd would like to have a word.
[553] He can have his word.
[554] And when it's done, we'll just keep moving on with a $3 bill with Steph Curry.
[555] Buying things $3 at a time.
[556] He could be on the back of the bill, like laying on his back from the court watching Steph Curry shoot a three.
[557] Only if we give Steph the $4.
[558] Do not put him waiting that towel, though.
[559] Noah Liles, leaving in a wheelchair and announcing he has COVID seconds after losing the 200 meters, where he was a massive favorite.
[560] Noah, the Stugats is strong in you.
[561] Also, had he play.
[562] Noah Liles saying he was insulted to get invited to an Anthony Edwards Adidas event.
[563] Hey, Noah Liles, shut up.
[564] The only thing Noah Lyle runs better than the 100 is his mouth.
[565] Noah, news flash.
[566] We'll go back to pretending we care about your sport in four years.
[567] You guys do believe him on COVID, right?
[568] You do believe him.
[569] I mean, I believe that he had it because there's tests to back that up.
[570] But I'm saying you believe that that was the reason that the race that he was favored to win, that that happened.
[571] He lost the heat too, but not the movie.
[572] I'm excited about that.
[573] lost the heat prior to and he doesn't lose heeds.
[574] I mean, I could be talked into that.
[575] He's also asthmatic.
[576] So I could be talking to that.
[577] That seems like that would all slow you down.
[578] But if he won, though, Zagak.
[579] How does that work?
[580] Are we still in the wheelchair with asthma or are running around the stadium even more?
[581] He's not.
[582] He may argue different, but I'd bet my life on it.
[583] You are not in that wheelchair.
[584] No, if you win, you go to the wheelchair and announce you have COVID still, don't you?
[585] It makes it seem more heroic.
[586] You tell people you have COVID.
[587] but he probably ditches the wheelchair.
[588] Mike Greenberg said Steph Curry's shot was the most memorable shot in basketball history.
[589] It wasn't.
[590] Top five shots in basketball history.
[591] Number five, Michael Jordan's buzzer -beater versus Georgetown in the 82 national championship game.
[592] Number four, Michael Jordan shot and shrug in the 19.
[593] 92 finals.
[594] Number three, any of Jordan's shots from the flu game.
[595] Number two, Michael Jordan shot over Craig Elo.
[596] And number one, Michael Jordan's game winner over Byron Russell.
[597] I also don't know which shot Greenie is talking about.
[598] I don't even.
[599] Because to me, it was like the display of shots.
[600] Like, there wasn't like a singular one.
[601] Yeah, I guess the dagger that the golden dagger.
[602] No, the last one rolling to his right with a double team coming to him, I think is the one he's talking about, but it can be the photograph of Wembenyama, like it can be that one too.
[603] Carson Wentz is a chief.
[604] Oh.
[605] Surprise me. Huh.
[606] Mm -hmm.
[607] Best job at sports.
[608] Backing up that guy.
[609] Did you see Hollywood Brown's injury, by the way?
[610] What happened?
[611] He's like he's hospitalized.
[612] Oh, man. You may miss the start of the season.
[613] Shoulder injury.
[614] your concern was appropriate though he met the moment does it matter they have my homes I mean I feel bad for Hollywood Brown I don't want anyone to be injured they won the Super Bowl we're like we feel so bad doesn't matter doesn't matter you feel so bad they treated away to Reek Hill and won two Super Bowls I'm always I always go to funerals hey I'm sorry for your lost condolences doesn't matter though does it really matter they have Mahomes doesn't matter you're concerned you're concerned He's only the fourth best player in the league, though.
[615] Hollywood Brown.
[616] If J .J. McCarthy can keep playing the Raiders third stringers, I like his chances.
[617] Maybe go, hmm, though.
[618] He did.
[619] I got to be honest with you.
[620] Drew Holliday.
[621] Won a gold medal and did so quietly.
[622] How?
[623] He does everything quietly.
[624] I had no idea he was on the team.
[625] Man, the bar that I was at was chaining Drew S .A. He's a Celtic.
[626] I thought I started that.
[627] I started.
[628] Mine, you can't have that.
[629] And I was the one that started Drew Ase, and you'll be happy to know that the people listened and they liked it.
[630] It appears all jazz chisholm needed was fans.
[631] And a short porch.
[632] That too, you're right.
[633] Headline, Juan Soto deal could complicate Yankees' ability to retain Clay Holmes.
[634] That's like saying, if I buy a Ferrari, I might not be able to drive my Honda Civic anymore.
[635] Clay Holmes is a Honda Civic?
[636] Yes.
[637] Soto Ferrari.
[638] Who cares if it complicates the Clay Holmes deal?
[639] Honestly, who cares?
[640] It's Soto.
[641] Taylor.
[642] He's very good.
[643] I mean, I don't know.
[644] No. He wrote them.
[645] Not Taylor.
[646] Soto.
[647] Oh.
[648] Congratulations to Kevin Durant for adding a fourth gold medal to his otherwise empty trophy case.
[649] Stugatsbook .com.
[650] You know what I'm saying?
[651] Curtis Samuel is a bill.
[652] Twins are placing a statue of Joe Mower outside target field.
[653] That statue can only go up if the plaque with it mentions he was 0 -10 in playoff games.
[654] What happened?
[655] Why would they do that?
[656] Why not?
[657] Truth?
[658] Yeah, but...
[659] I mean, why not?
[660] You put the career highlights on the plaque, put Owen's ed in playoff games.
[661] Why not?
[662] Ofer.
[663] Spencer Rattler.
[664] He could sling it.
[665] Hmm.
[666] You agreed that?
[667] I found him very disappointing at Oklahoma.
[668] I wanted so much more from him.
[669] Did you really?
[670] Yes.
[671] Okay.
[672] If a heat player even looks at another superstar, this show assumes it means they want to come to Miami.
[673] Doing it with Anthony Edwards now, it's embarrassing.
[674] He's not coming here, but I think he's coming here.
[675] I mean, that's where we're at.
[676] All I said, it was something to watch.
[677] That's all I said.
[678] Watch the arbitration in Minnesota.
[679] With heat graphics behind you.
[680] Well, but all I said is that it's interesting to watch what.
[681] happens with the sale of the timber wall.
[682] It's embarrassing.
[683] Yeah, you mention that.
[684] Taylor.
[685] Stop embarrassing yourself.
[686] Okay.
[687] USA Gymnastics is requesting the ruling be revised and are submitting new video growing the inquiry was filed in time.
[688] What?
[689] I have no idea.
[690] It's about Jordan Childs.
[691] I skipped one.
[692] It's my bed.
[693] It's on me. It's not on Taylor.
[694] I totally skipped one because one led right into the other and I skipped it.
[695] You're not even writing your own observation.
[696] No, I'm writing the good ones.
[697] Incoe.
[698] Boston Scott is a ram.
[699] Top five athletes, whose name canota State Capitol or well -known city.
[700] How about this?
[701] O 'L
