I have been remiss in not telling people that Greg Cote, Tuesday is not today, is going to be tomorrow. Greg Cote, Greg Cote, Tuesday is gonna be Wednesday tomorrow. I I'm sorry for not addressing it earlier. People You

should be.

Yeah. I've grown to expect, him here on Tuesdays. They like their Cody Tuesdays, and to the degree that some of you didn't notice that he was gone, thank you for not noticing. Because I noticed whenever he's not gone on Tuesdays because he's an endless fountain of content around here. But he will be tomorrow for those of you who miss him.

We will check-in with Tony 1 more time, and I will tell you again that this toy drive that we're trying to do a little bit at the last minute, today with Cuban Santa Tony and, tomorrow with Roy. Roy Drive tomorrow. Stoic Santa. Not not gonna be a lot of joy at that 1, I don't think. Not gonna feel like I mean, maybe maybe maybe we can summon Santa's joyous Christmas time, and this Roy Drive will escalate tomorrow at Vivo, at Vivo Mall.

But you guys do you guys Dolphin Mall.

Mall. Mall. Yeah.

Excuse me. Vivo at Vivo's

a restaurant in the Dolphin Mall.

Forgive me. I'm just worried. Today's thing, I'm I'm being told that they're being towed now, that they're being towed that's a famously small parking lot in Flanagan's. I now we've got Cuban Santa, and our tow drive is being tow is being towed, but Tony's still there trying to keep things together. And when I walked into the other studio, and you guys are gonna have to help me here, Lucy, Jessica, and Billy, they were all laughing at Cuban Santa's insecurities.

Yeah. All of them were laugh that's not falsehoods. Billy. Billy.

Falsehood.

Jessica. Jessica. You guys

Lucy. Lucy.

I was laughing at Rose trying to replug that inflatable thing. We don't know if it's happened. We don't know the situation there. I have a lot of questions.

It look.

It feels like you're trying to steal this segment away from Tony by making it

Royce's top, Royce's top 5. Mhmm.

And Royce tomorrow.

Yeah. Royce tomorrow. At Vivo Mall. Dolphin Mall.

People really miss Royce top 10.

I get them all. They get them all.

They get them all.

There are

no more Royce top tens.

Is Jermall gonna be there?

That's a good question. Yeah.

It keeps

making a package deal. Right.

They're getting towed.

What about Ice Ice Baby? So this toy drive, is a bit of a gorilla outfit. Look. I wanna say something real quick here, Stu, guys, before we get into the sports tainment stuff that we need to be talking about.

Okay.

I am really grateful for the group of people who have made this start up business something that can exist for 3 years when everyone's got their own hardships, and it's been hard. And I just threw a toy drive at them. And they're all overworked, and they're tired, and they would like not a whole lot of like, it probably be better to stumble into the holidays without more work. But now I've insisted on a toy drive out of nowhere. Mhmm.

So I need to support Cuban Santa even though I don't trust him with your gift cards or your cash, and I gotta trust stoic Roy to go to to go to the Everglades, Stegats. Right. This is Yeah. You you said you made a joke in

It's Doral. Yeah.

It's not the

It's not even west of the turnpike.

Stegats made a joke yesterday that his 3 weeks of travel this this season are equivalent to what Lucy has done because he went out to Dolphin Mall.

I mean, there's a Topgolf west of it. Now after that Topgolf, it's the Everglades.

Yeah. My body hurts. I mean, it's been a long football season. I don't know how you feel, Mike, but my body hurts. We have made a lot of trips this year, and the trip to the Dolphin Mall is the 1 that really got me.

Football season ended in Syracuse for me.

I still don't understand how Carvana works, because there's 1 of those right next to Topgolf. Like, they make it seem like it's a car vending machine, but it's not like that.

It's like more of a car PEZ dispenser.

Really? Like, I don't swipe my card and then, like, push, like, a 15 and then It's quite the shock. Ram comes down.

I I am always curious. The logistics of a Carvana.

Yeah. Lot to learn. Anyways, how many toys do you think we've collected?

I don't know. I think this is a tough thing, and I think you will enjoy if we don't collect any. I believe the the anarchist to you would like the kids to be unhappy. I I I think It's not the kids. It's Tony.

I think well, is it Tony? Well, something is happening in the tension between everybody in Cuban Santa that makes me not get honesty about where it is that Cuban Santa's not happy how all of this has gone because Rose stole his limelight. I didn't do that. I mean, we all saw

You didn't do it.

We all saw it happen.

Didn't do it.

We all saw

it happen. The 17th time you asked her to pronounce Luigi's name

Right on the line. We were dancing on the line. Hey. Look. We were dancing on the line.

I was getting approval from the room because nobody quite knew. Are we doing something offensive? I don't know, but it's funny. And offensive 2 ways because we've make light of the, like, murder in the street now. We do that now.

We'd be like, yeah. It's just murder in the street. Hey. Murder's not a real thing. These aren't human beings.

It's all we all live in a simulation. Luigi Mangeo.

Let's not vamp on this 1. Yeah.

Luigi Mangeo.

Is Tony scaring people maybe? Why did like, can he just take off the beard? Why is he wearing a costume?

It because he's Cuban Santa. What do you mean?

What do you

what do you mean why is he wearing That

time of year, best time.

No. He's got he's in he's in performance as Cuban Santa. And look, you guys know what that Flanagan's is. It lives on a hill. It's a parking lot.

It's a very small parking lot. Some people are being towed. We're trying to do a toy drive. Rose is holding up the inflatables that weren't put there by us. She ruined their property.

That's not us. I don't know why she was even back there, but it reminded me of Billy at Tim Legler's house. It reminded me of Billy falling falling into the bushes as an eagle.

Missed that.

Less inflatable somehow.

I don't understand what just happened. I really don't. Our toy drive has fallen into a puddle that, Stuttgart is saying is filled with urine. He is not, but, there is another pee story that for some reason Jessica is desperate to get into.

What is happening?

Thank you for setting it up that way.

They're not full urine.

There was a

I have urine in me. I mean

There was a photo that was

Full of it. Well, I am full of it.

Around the, Internet yesterday. It was a toilet with a grid over it.

Oh my god.

And the grid was numbered 1 through 9 on the top and a through j on the left. Yeah.

The Oh, there we go.

Y axis, I guess. And people were saying where they aim when they piss. And I saw this picture and I showed it to my boyfriend and I was like, everyone's like an e 5. Right? Like, is there anywhere else you would aim if you were aiming into the toilet?

Well, it's And apparently, that's not the most common answer.

Battleshits. If this is late at night and I'm not trying to wake up my wife, I'm an e 8 kinda guy.

Yeah. There's a silencer technique, and also, you're not in control of how much water is in the bowl. If there is a

bowl

that has less water in it, you're probably gonna wanna go closer to d 2 range.

I just go to left. There's a cap.

Or you could go d 2. You just you go corners. Yeah. I mean

Depends where the water is.

I live in the 8, 9 zone. What? Like, well, in the middle, like, not the top. I'm not peeing on the rim, but, like, I'm trying to hit the side of the wall.

But it's

That is the aiming space. Why? Because it's it's not loud. Like, I don't want the like, what

it is.

You want it to cascade off the side and and it limits the the sound. You can also sit.

Well, that's I think the women, I don't think play this game. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong.

I mean, you guys are all, like, all the ladies are, like, j 5. Right?

Yeah. What? Oh, you

think we pee

j 5.

Off the front of the toilet?

Yeah. Oh, well, I guess my mistake. H 5.

F 5.

No. E 5.

I think probably closer. Really? It depends if I'm You

lean back on it? Gross.

Sitting with my back to the back of the toilet or if I'm squatting facing the

toilet. What if it's a public restroom?

What? No. Then it depends.

There you go.

It goes where it goes. I mean, I hover.

Don Libertard.

All of us who were watching college football elevated everything the weekend was because we missed football in general so very much.

You didn't watch the ending of UTEP Jacksonville State. It was awesome.

A doozy. Boom. Mhmm. Stugats.

It's such a lane for you. Just everything in college football is awesome. Any single thing that happens, she gets deliriously happy about.

Don't you miss viewing sports through that that prism though? Like, I'm envious of Lucy. Like, I wish that I could still be happy.

This is The Don Levatar Show with the Stu Gats.

I'm glad I did that. Weekend observations plates. Oh.

810 is the last time I checked.

Share his skin notes. No 1 in the media will tell you what happened better than my voice too.

Weekend observations brought to you by Miller Lite. Great taste, Just 96 calories available for delivery. Dan, people were ready to write them off. They said he was washed. They said he should just go ahead and retire.

But on Sunday, Sunday, Dan, he turned back the clocks, reminding everybody why he was a 4 time MVP, dropping dimes all over the field with 289 yards and 3 touchdowns. No. And even more impressively, at 41 years old, he could still scoot.

6 carries for 45 yards.

The team's leading rusher. And Dan, just like that, make no mistake about it. Aaron Rogers is back. Exciting. Hey, Navy.

Do it in the army. All the jets win did is give me hope for next season. I hate them. The Philadelphia Eagles, the rare 12 and 2 team that feels like a ticking time bomb.

I don't feel like anyone understood navy do it in the army.

Well, you know, navy beat army, and I'm just telling the, you know, the midshipman, do it as a cadet. A lot of people think the army is harder than navy, Dan. You know? You know the old joke from a few get. Men?

We give you a ride, the army. You know what Jessup says? You give us a ride when we wanna go fight. That's all I'm saying. Do it in the army.

It was a play on an old classic.

Full of urine.

Let's not vamp on that 1 either.

Jesus Christ almighty follow-up questions. I probably need to let this 1 go. But every time I see Eric Crouch at the Heisman stage, it infuriates me. He has no business being there. Same with Jason White.

Business is what I was trying to say. Why is Jason White on the Heisman stage?

I know. He crouches there

because Miami guys split the votes.

That's so bad. He had no business winning that thing. Crouch. Very few things in sports. Tug at the heartstrings, quite like a good Heisman Trophy speech.

Top 5 sports things that tug at the heartstrings. Number 5, a good Heisman speech. Thank you. Number 4, a good retirement speech. Number 3, the hawk eye wave.

Number 2, Tom Rinaldi's voice. And number 1, Gary Anderson's missed from 38 yards to keep the vikings out of the 98 Super Bowl. That's the best team to not make a Super Bowl in the history of the NFL. You agree. Right?

Do you feel bad for Gary Anderson? I'm wondering, Dan. Do you? Because he was perfect that season. Perfect.

Had a 38 yard field goal to put him in the Super Bowl against the falcons. He missed it.

It's a 1 loss game.

The heart string.

Isn't that the reason that you and Billy say that the lions had to lose a game? Isn't that team the reason that you guys say that?

Yes. It was heartbreaking. Chris Chandler went to the Super Bowl. Is he the quarterback for the Falcons?

We also didn't say that. Dan Campbell said that.

Yeah. Here come the senators. Can we stop saying every player is generational?

You were mad about this before the show.

You can't have 20 players be a once in a generation type player.

You can't. You were stomping around. You were like furious around the bacon that you were eating with your bare hands. Just stomping around

about this. There's 1 generational player. That's it. You can't have 20 from 1 generation defeats the purpose. Supposed to work.

Glove to eat bacon? We get

your point. Well, I don't I I the point I'm sorry. I would say that most people eat bacon when walking around with a plate or a napkin or something. It's not just bacon. Do I have this wrong?

I think you eat bacon with your bare hands. I mean.

You walk I I I I kind of delight in the fact that you're walking around with bacon fingers that are covered in cigarette smoke, but I I I I'm not even judging it. I'm not even judging it. I'm just saying I don't think most people do it that way. It's more observational, honestly, than judgment. Oh, your observations.

Being aggressive and going forward on Fort Dam. You know what the bills did to the lions, Dan? They gave him a taste of their own medicine. They really did. Dan Campbell is gonna cost his team a Super Bowl.

How much longer are we going to pretend to care about the NBA Cup? I'm tired of it.

Billy, why does that delight you so much?

That's a big day today. Today's championship day in the NBA Cup.

Priced enough.

Yeah. Today's a championship bucks against someone.

Oh, LeBron didn't make it. Oh.

No. Well, he took vacation.

The bucks against somebody?

Who who are they playing? I think it's OKC.

Exactly. Oh, yeah. The Thunder. That's right. Yep.

Big 1.

Amin is joining us from Vegas because he thinks this is an important game.

Oh, he

got 1 over on you, buddy. Jesus. Free trip to Vegas.

Congratulations to the Carolina Panthers for being favored for the first time in 32 games. Also, good loss. There's nothing like screaming,

free play

at your TV when you see somebody jump off sides.

Put it on the poll, please, Juju at Lebitard show. Do you shout free play at your television when someone jumps off sides? Room. Room. The whole room does this.

You have to.

Of course. Caleb had 1 yesterday. Yep. Made the most of it. 20 yards or something.

Dan, I thought after Deshaun Jackson, it would never happen again. Why does it keep happening? Why does it keep happening? Cross the goal line and then celebrate your touchdown.

Would you guys watch a 30 for 30 on that? Would you guys watch a Meadowlark documentary on why does it happen? Jason Whitlock said, do white people ever do that? Is it ever a white person who drops the ball before the goal line? We can turn that

into touchdowns, Ace Corn.

A mockumentary. We we can turn this into a mockumentary. We can.

Not really a representative sample. You're basically counting on Cooper Kupp.

Mike Allstock

can't be at the goal line. Quarterback sneaks.

Allstock. I mean, Jalen hurts

Most of the white guys are scoring from like an inch out.

Can I ask

They they don't have the time to drop it before the goal line because they don't have 80 yards speed?

I'm trying to think the last white guy that could, you know, go for 80 yards. Ricky Proll?

It's just Kupp. Just Kupp.

Oh, McCaffrey.

Well, they haven't done it. It's the 2 guy sample.

Ricky Proll. That's all I had.

God. You didn't have anything.

I mean, Ricky Proll was a deep threat.

And it checks out. He's definitely white.

Yeah. It's a long time ago.

Where was I? I have no idea. Dan, you know what the d in Detroit stands for? Not defense.

No. I was I thought you were gonna say done or something. Something more dramatic.

They're just getting started. Eagles with a 21 play drive to ice the game.

You know

what that is, Dan? No. It's football. Georgia Tech quarterback, Hanes King, announced he'll be back next season. That sound you just heard was Mario Cristobal shuttering in fear even though the canes don't play Georgia Tech next season.

You were quick. You were coming for that, weren't you?

He's still nervous.

He's still scared. Yeah.

He should be.

Mike hasn't given us the real heartbreak of that. You still feel

it. Right?

You still, like, you still physically feel that's a season you cared about.

Yeah. It was a it's a bummer for

a 10 that way. But, I I watched part of the show yesterday trying to make light of Miami season.

It was a good season. It was a real good season.

You get a cool trophy. Mhmm. That trophy's a

good win.

I hate the pop dark 1. Don't even Why? On that. It's awesome. Yeah.

It's like the biggest bowl outside of the ones that matter. I understand that.

But like I said, don't get me started on it.

Alright.

Needs a better name? What's better than Pop Tart Bowl?

It just needs a better 1.

Timing is everything. Once I saw the new trophy for the Pop Tart Bowl, I declared it a must win for Miami.

You hate Camping World Stadium. Right? It's an awful stadium. Yeah. Every year, it feels like it's there.

Yeah. Or at least every other year.

It's weird. The Duke's Mayo Bowl can only dream of being the Pop Tarts Bowl. Marshall.

Hold on. If I may, mister Gantz, if I can just do this, I'm sorry to interrupt. The precious sacred ground that No problem. Weekend observations always respected around here. Mhmm.

But we as a show make fun of the Pop Tarts Bowl, and Jessica reminded us a couple of times on Monday, hey. That's a good bowl. But Miami season ending against Iowa State in a bowl for pop star Pop Tarts is something that's getting the best Miami season in 25 years and the best Miami offense we've ever seen made fun of for ending up in a pop tarts bowl. That's a thing that's happening. The University of Miami's last game ends as pop tart punctuation that people are laughing at Because they didn't get to 1 of the big games, they're stuck with the pop tarts.

You're really trying to get me started and I said don't. It's probably a must win. Like, you don't wanna lose the pop.

I'd rather lose it. No. You'd rather

out of it. Mario Griswold last night. I don't wanna go to a ball game. Okay.

Bye bye.

I'd rather I'd rather opt out

of it.

I don't know what. What are you, Marshall? I mean No.

Okay. You got me started on it.

My whole thing about the Pop Tart Bowl is Jess is right when she says it is supposed to be a prestigious bowl and that it's supposed to be the top ACC, team that's not going to a CFP game. And if if this was a 7 win season, this was an 8 win season. Look, last year, I was all about the bad boy mowers pinstriped bowl. All about it. You can lean into it's a meme bowl.

No. It it's a bowl that exists for memes, and the teams that are playing in it are used as punch lines for the toasters and the and the pop tarts and it's just when you come that close to the CFP, you see the the bowl game that is most active making a joke of itself on the Internet. It's just kind of like a bummer.

I haven't seen them using Iowa State as a punch line. It's pretty much just been Miami. You're

happy with the Pop Tugs Bowl. Isn't that the 1 you'd wanna go to?

Oh, heck yeah. I mean, like, I understand Mike's sort of take of it does feel very memeified. I feel

like they make fun of the team.

It's too fun.

In the day and age where there are there's the playoff now and and the bowl games that used to be a really big deal are now playoff games, like and there are so many bowl games. There are a 1,010,000 bowl games. You kinda have to find a way to differentiate yourself, and Pop Tarts has done that by being fun and quirky and having a live animal mascot and a toaster, and I I don't know.

We respect It's

college football. Let's have fun.

We respect the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.

No.

Okay? Pop Tart doesn't get off Tostitos.

It's gonna get there though. It's not the Tony the Tiger Bowl.

It's gonna

be an old white guy in it, like, a royal blue blazer handing me a normal looking trophy and

saying congratulations on your season.

That's how you actually stick out these days. Everybody, you gotta dump mayo. You gotta dump potatoes. You gotta dump coffee. Like, I get it.

Like, it's all it's all fun and games for everybody. But it's just, you know, if this is supposed to be 1 of the more prestigious ones Right.

How

about we stop making fun of the teams that are in it? Mhmm.

I think that all the Bulls should have a fun little element. Iowa is playing in the Music City Bowl in Nashville, and I think whoever wins that game should get to throw a chair off a bar like Morgan Wallen did. And that should be the trophy

to be fine. Lucy, I I believe that we should get you all access to the pop tart bowl. Like, if if if they're in on the joke, you should be the media, renegade who is selling pop tart bowl to the country because of of how fun the Pop Tart Bowl seems to you.

I would go. If you paid for it, I would go.

Well, we've And, like,

it's it's fun. I don't have a problem with it. Like, I I think if my team were in it, I I would still enjoy it quite a bit. But I think it's fun.

Let's do

it. Iowa State's in it, so Lucy might be rooting for Miami.

I actually kinda like Iowa State.

Oh, no. Woah.

This are

Shoot us.

They're super nice fans. First 10 win season ever. This is actually a very, like, I know it's a bummer for Mike, but this is a huge deal for Iowa State. It's a huge deal for them, and their fans are gonna travel really well. I think I'm excited for them.

Is Amber also a mystery pop tart to be revealed?

There is.

There is. Yes. I'm with Mike though. I don't like gimmicky bowls, you know? Give me the Gator Bowl, give me the Cotton Bowl, give me a Rose Bowl, give me an Orange Bowl.

I mean

with the gimmicky ones for, like, bad teams. Right. For, like, teams that are just eligible.

But You

wanna make

an Orange Bowl, you gotta go to the playoff.

No. I understand that. And that's that's a sick bar, dude.

Give me a Gator Bowl. I mean

And the Rose Bowl has a parade. It's about football and pop tarts.

Just I'm jealous. I'm jealous. Other teams get to go into a normal, like, holiday bowl. Give me that.

You know,

their whole thing is, like, are they so Culligan? Give me that.

What about the Wasabi Fenway Bowl?

That 1 seems fine.

Yeah. 2 college basketball programs playing in a baseball stadium. That's what I like.

North Carolina, Yukon.

You can't spell Jameis Winston without the I n t's. Yankees forcing Devin Williams to shave his beard.

There's not a t in Jameis.

What do you mean? There's not an He can't spell Jameis Winston without the I n t's. Okay. I'm

sorry. My bad. I'm sorry. There's no t in Winston.

My bad.

I thought it was

my fault.

I think your observations are mine.

I'm so sorry. Oh. So sorry.

It's okay. Yankees forcing Devin Williams to shave his head. Hey, Yankees. Why don't you worry about winning a world series and not about facial hair? Taylor.

The jets were 0 and 5 against Mac Jones. You know what that means. Right, Dan?

Had their number.

It means they were due. No. I hate them. Jets, awful win. Also, I want Aaron to come back.

I hate them. The jets lose must win games and win must lose games. I hate them. And Devonte, I'd like him to come back as well. I hate them.

I feel fancy every time I say the name, Zach Charbonneau.

Put it on the poll, please, at lebatar show g

j. Right?

Charbonneau.

Charbonneau. That's right. Do you Or Charbonneau. I was thinking of Guy Carbonneau. That's who I was thinking of.

How would you like me to phrase that? Sharpenet on the pole at levatar show. Do you feel fancy when you say the name, sharpenet?

Top 5 names in sports that when I say them, they make me feel fancy. O l I. David Benoit. A lot of people think it's Benoit. It's not.

It's Benoit. Yeah. Yeah. David Benoit would be weird.

Yeah. Well, not weird, but just not as fancy.

Right. Number 5, Guy Carboneau. Number 4, Jesper Parnovic. Fancy schmancy. Number

3,

Zach Charbonnet. Number 2, Bryson DeChambeau. And number 1, Rodrigue boobah. No idea if I said any of those correctly. I feel fancy, though.

Yeah. Rodriguez? I think it is. Woohoo. Man.

Baker Mayfield. Good. Geno Smith, the rear quarterback that is more likely to throw an interception in the red zone than a touchdown. Dan, last week, I said you couldn't do better than Tommy DeVito for tanking. I was wrong because the giants put in Tim Boyle.

The t at Tim Boyle stands for tanking. As long as Mike Evans is playing football, he'll be open. He's so good. 1st ballot hall of famer. Brandon Aubrey attempting a 70 yard field goal.

Ambitious. Sam Howell can sling it sometimes to the other team, but sling it nonetheless. You agree?

Yeah. Yeah. And he gets sacked a lot and yeah.

I left out Taylor. Death, taxes, and Louis Riddick popping up as a GM candidate every year. The jets down. Louis Riddick. He's never gonna get 1.

Really? Why are you doing that?

I mean, he's been up for 5. Okay. And? He doesn't get him.

I mean, but you really okay.

He's up for a job, and the next season, what I do is I see him standing next to Steve Levy calling a game. I mean, that's what I do. I would like him to get 1. He's always the bridesmaid. Oh, no.

He he is. It's not fair to Lewis Riddick.

It's often with Shuzin, who you've said is your dear friend.

I love Bob. You guys still have that chat going on?

Oh, yeah. Still on fire after last night.

Klay Thompson, revenge game. Jackson Smith and Jigba, dangerous name to say. I was nervous just approaching it.

Because of the x in Jackson.

Of course. We're gonna Kyle Tucker traded to the cubs. Oh. Dan, the stove is heating up. Taylor.

Congratulations to the jets for getting their first ever victory against Mac Jones. I hate them. Mac Jones has a 19 and 30 record for his career. He's 5 and 1 against the jets, 14 and 29 against everyone else. I hate them.

If Mac Jones only played against the jets, he'd be a 1st ballot hall of famer. Indianapolis Colts, the rare trick play that trick no 1. Dan, you know what Dan Campbell gets to do? Hit the reset button. When Dan Campbell was humbling his team, he's got you right where he wants you.

Mike Lombardi strolling into a kid's house and saying, hey. You ever heard of Brady? Collision course. He's gonna do that. Right?

That's his recruiting pitch. A new report on the Joe Burrow home break in. Apparently, the robbers tried to enter via the Super Bowl window, but it was closing too quickly. I hope the Jets told Belichick no via napkin. Lions, Bills, Steelers, Eagles, first half, split screen, football heaven.

Dan, if you decide to get a blizzard from Dairy Queen, what you've decided is that you are okay spending the next 12 hours in hell. Speaking of hell, arp riles. Dan, those are the weekend observations.

You're basically saying of the blizzard, 1 of the great delights in dessert anywhere in the history of sugar. Yeah. You're saying that the lactose situation on that, if you have that at night, it's not gonna be a resting situation. You're gonna get the gurgling stomach for the rest of the evening. That's what you're letting.

Rest of the evening, it, you know, goes into the next day, perhaps an entire day. But you know what you're getting when you get I mean, it's delicious going in.

But is that true for everybody? Or do you might maybe do maybe you have a specific lactose intolerance here? Like, I don't think that's true for everybody. Is it?

I'm just saying I eat a blizzard and I go to e 6 on Jess's toilet

That's so gross.

Kinda feel like the map would be all

over the place then,

though. It'd be it'd be like a 1. It could go anywhere.

Yeah. Alright.

I'm actually crying.

Yeah. Alright. Why 9?

Why is there a cat in this picture?

What do

you think that cat thought

he was doing?

Why are you taking a picture of your toilet and your cat is looking at you like, why are you doing this?

That cat out of the way if Suigaz has a blizzard. I'll tell you that right?

I'll tell you.

Don Libertad. So, like, there was a time that that and I'll tell you who this person is that I admire, and I said, that'd be a great career for me, Ryan Seacrest.

Stuttgart's. And then to

take it a step further, you know, just a couple weeks ago, James Corden was stepping down and he said, you know who'd be

a great replacement for him?

Me. I I could do that.

I could replace James Corden.

Right? Agree with you on that. If I don't have to move to LA and I could just do this somewhere near the Tamiami area, like, they have an old, you know, theater that's kind of abandoned right now, maybe we do something there. I I mean, people like to come to Miami.

Right? Kmart into your Late Late Show studio.

I didn't even think about that. Wow. That's a theater right there.

This is The Don Levatar Show with the Stugats.

There were 2 things in Stugaadz's weekend observations that I thought, were worth revisiting. 1 was that play in Colts Broncos because everybody is so safe with the football now that when something like that happens in professional football, you have to understand what these people are doing. Right? Like, they're super precise military complexes trying to march down the field carefully protecting the football. The packers have a meeting about the football every week.

Every Thursday, they get together. The packers get together and, like, who turned the football over? It's a meeting about just the football.

Makes sense.

They bring the football. They talk about the football. You can't and then you watch, oh, look. The cold season, they're in the mix. They're right there at Broncos.

I don't believe in them, but, oh, where's this game gonna turn? Jonathan Taylor's gonna just flip the ball at the goal line and also, oh, shit. Right after that, look what happened. The Colts are playing flea flicker ball, and the perfect play goes in the other direction. Like, the the dream They telegraphed.

The dream for any kid playing football in the history of defensive football since the beginning of time happens, it just lays out for Benito's. And and he runs 60 yards with the football. But the other conversation that I wanted to have good. Where are we on the goods and Baker Mayfield? Because this has been an argument for 10 years between Mike Ryan and Stan Van Gundy.

It's been 1 of the great arguments around here that we've ever had.

I think Mike wins.

Well, but Baker Mayfield's gonna throw you occasional interceptions, but we cannot dispute that Baker Mayfield is is very good at quarterback. Correct? Like Exceptional at quarterback. I don't know if it's exceptional.

No. It is.

I but but it's good enough for goods? Good enough for goods?

He's got the goods.

He's got the goods.

He's proven worthy of that contract. He he's a he's a good player. Is he, you know, ever gonna be confused with the best in the sport? No. But can you win with him?

Absolutely. I hope they do because it'd be a really great story for him. This guy was playing defensive end on scout team for the Carolina Panthers.

Crazy.

And in Baker versus the Browns, like, unequivocally, he won that 1.

No doubt. No doubt. This guy's big sin was to play through an injury and maybe could have been a little bit more professional about his time over there, but they shoved him out the door and replaced him with Deshaun Watson. And for a team that was struggling for 20 plus years to find a quarterback for them to have 1. For them to have 1 who was runner-up in AP offensive rookie of the year, said all sorts of passing records as a rookie, won a wild card game at Pittsburgh, made Ben Roethlisberger all sad.

Like, though, that's the stuff that you were dying for

Yes.

As a Browns fan, and you couldn't wait to push him out the door.

Dan, he's been so good. 36 100 yards, completion percentage is 70%. 2 quarterbacks have a higher completion percentage. Can I Dolphin Tua? Alright.

So if if I may just for a moment because I know there's stuff happened super fast in that sport. Just real quick, grabbing, you know, great college player, putting him in the pros, and then putting him through the furnace of, we're gonna slice this up real quick. You better be value at quarterback or you're gonna break up our defense. So you got about 3 years to figure this out, and these rookies better figure it out faster than faster. And Bryce Young, you're getting a bench fast.

Anthony Richardson, you got about 5 seconds over here. Let's hurry it up. Baker goes into the furnace of all of that and was this far from having his career basically be over before he resuscitated it on Monday night because McVay at the end of the season is saying, alright. We'll try this for a minute or 2.

Hours after he flew into town.

Yeah. And now he's gonna get now we're looking at it. Wait a minute. That's better than Sam Darnold money, and that's a sentence I just said. That's a sentence I just said.

That lands so harshly to Carolina Panthers fans

as both of them excel.

But but can we now step back for a minute and just say, hey. It might take a minute to be the guy who can go 20 for 30, and there might be some blemishes. Blake Baker's gonna play in a way. You you might get 3 turnovers in a playoff game, and you can't be too surprised. Oh, we

need to slow down what we're doing with quarterbacks. Dan, when we were growing up, you would have guys sit behind the starter for 3 or 4 years. Geno Smith is a great example.

What what I'm saying is He left

the Jets a decade ago.

I would just ask you to step back from all of it no matter how much we make the finances of it, the important part of the early part of the career, and just know what you're throwing all these people into the maw of because it's gotten faster and crueler about how it disposes people in that backfield when you can replace the running back salary with Josh Allen because he runs and throws, when you can be what the ravens are because you figured out the finances of your back feet.

I've asked people in the know, independent of the injury, which is I think a huge part of this, which made him play worse, which if he's not playing worse, then you don't open the door to him leaving. But by all accounts, it seemed as though Baker's time at Cleveland was at an end. Like, there were there were divisions in the locker room. He'd worn out his welcome. He was at a different point in his career.

But you could make a quick evaluation on Baker Mayfield. In retrospect, he was really good as a rookie. He wasn't as good when he had Freddie Kitchens, 1 of the worst head coaches of all time as his head coach in that 2nd year. Really good his 3rd year, wins a playoff game. And then his 4th year, he battles through multiple bad injuries and tries to tough it out, which affects his performance.

You could look at the 1st 4 years of his career and say, I can explain why he's bad, and I'm pretty confident this guy is good. That's what I kept saying as it was happening. I did not want Deshaun Watson. I wanted to keep Baker. I was team Baker all the way.

I didn't wanna replace him while other people were saying this team is just a quarterback away. No. They're just a healthy Baker Mayfield away.

That's interesting. You saw enough in the 1st 4 years where you're like, there's something there. If we just stick with this guy, there is something there.

I had a quarterback that we drafted number 1, winning Pittsburgh in the playoffs.

Mike, you're right because you could make the argument his 3rd season was his best season. Even better than this season.

If we can get Stan Van Gundy on the line to concede this would be a holiday treat. 2 people who never admit they're wrong. Stan Van Gundy and Mike Ryan having to go back and revisit. Did or does Baker have the goods? Yes or no?

Because it's been an age old argument around here. I'd like to settle some of these 1 day.

My guess is, Stan, knowing Stan the way I do, knowing the type of player that he likes, he's gonna concede this to Mike because he likes Baker. Alright. Let's see

if we can get Stan Van Gundy on the line. But let's go back out to Flanagan's here for the final time today, and I will ask the audience. We're trying to do an old time radio remote type of thing where we send somebody out locally and you bring them toys. Tony is at Flanagan's today. In the next couple of days, we're gonna be at Vivo at Dolphin Mall.

Before we go out to Amin who is stealing the company's money in Vegas, let's go out here to Tony, at Flanagan's, the legendary Flanagan.

There are

actual toys behind him. Him.

That's right. Well, when whenever we ask our audience for anything, they they always do this, and we didn't give them much notice. So now we're giving you notice on the next couple of days, and Roy will be joyless somewhere in, in the Everglades, in the coming days. But, Tony, what, what is going on on there? Give us a last report.

I I'm mortified to tell you that the group has learned that there were some insecurities involved in, Rose and how well she did during your segment.

Thanks, Dan, for coming out. We're gonna be here until about noon. So a couple more minutes here just hanging out at 2721 Bird Avenue, the Flanagan's here in Coconut Grove as you can see. Toys have been dropped off. We got a beautiful woody.

We've got some trucks. We've got some lip balms over here. We got a football. For football guys excuse me. We've got a nerf gun.

We've got amazing Spider Man UNO. People have come through and brought some amazing gifts. I've had to transition from Santa with the mustache to a more Dagestani Santa with the no mustache look because of the the mustache are starting to get twirled, and I couldn't speak

Okay.

Without getting hair on.

Amateur Santa move, Cuban Santa. We are asking again for new and unwrapped toys for the charity branches. Branchesfl.org if you're outside of Miami. Tony, what has been the peril? I'm sure you've met.

Anytime we ask listeners for help, you they they they do moving things. We're asking for, building toys, Legos, jewelry, craft kits, educational toys, action figures, play food, tea sets, board games, Nerf toys, remote control cars. It's a really nice thing to think of this time of year. Just basically 1 kid who might not have somebody think that, a lonely kid might be getting something that, somebody's thinking about them. So, Tony, what are you finding?

Their cash is not good, Tony. No. No. The people we cannot give to him now, Tony.

No. Dan. Yeah. No. I I will update you on this, Dan.

We've had people bring a lot of stuff. As you can see, we're very happy with that. 1 1 thing to report is that it did start raining, and the sun is out now, so it's making it very steamy. So that's 1 thing to report that's gonna be, tough for for Cuban Santa to keep on, his shirt and his and his beard because you know how it is when it gets steamy on me.

You're just trying to take your shirt off?

Is this what's happening right now? You're gonna No.

You're gonna punch your shirt.

I wanna take the beard off.

Take it off, Tony. No. No. No. Take the beard off.

Come on. Shirts. This is uncomfortable. You keep doing this. This is not okay.

But this I'm just trying to help, Tony.

You don't wanna be sweaty, dude.

I'm wearing shorts. I'm wearing shorts.

Okay. So, is Rose still there?

Yeah. Rose is here.

Alright. Can I, can I get Rose real quick? Can I get Rose to just get in front here? And I just wanna ask her 1 more time because I wanna see if I can tickle Lucy here, because

Okay. Hold on.

Nothing nothing makes Rose nothing makes Lucy more I've Lucy, this is the funniest person in the world to you.

You're the 1 that keeps pushing this Rose thing and and you keep saying Lucy. I think you're the biggest Rose guy here.

Yeah. Yep. Yep.

Say the name, please. Try to say the name again.

Luigi Maguini.

Does Tony wanna say it now too? Or Luigi

Maguini.

Luigi Mangagnoni.

Nailed it.

That's close.

Is that

where it is? Yeah.

Rose.

Luigi Mangagnoni.

Yeah.

What?

Rose, what did Mike Ryan get wrong in his recap of Miss Congeniality 2?

Yeah.

Oh, there is no beauty pageant, and Sandra Bullock comes back, and she's in the FBI. And she's a face because now she's famous. And then they kidnap her best friend

What?

By accident because she was not to be the 1 to be kidnapped. So she goes to Vegas to

Vegas.

To rescue her.

What's in Vegas?

Yeah. Vegas.

What's in Vegas?

Uses the

What's in Vegas? NBA cover.

She was dressed like a showgirl. Right? Not like a pageant. I think that's the mistake we made.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. But what's going is there a show Show? In Vegas? Is there a show in Vegas that she goes to?

Yeah. There's a show that she dresses up and then

She dresses up at a show in Vegas.

Yeah. Because she did she had a big thing here.

Kinda feels a little formulaic if you ask me, Rose.

Also feels like Vegas.

Feels like a pageant too.

She had

the Emirates Cup?

But that that's a pageant.

I mean, it's a competition. It's a show. It's in Vegas. It feels a lot like a pageant.

No. Because she was there because she needed to have information from, fake Dolly.

Who is fake Dolly?

Who is fake Dolly?

Tell me.

You just said it. Oh.

You just said it. Yeah.

Yes. Salvador Dolly, Dolly Parton.

Oh, Dolly Parton. Sorry.

Oh. Yeah. That's you could see how I'm confused.

Rose, what is the song you like to sing from Wicked?

Either Defy Gravity or Popular.

Alright.

Let's hear it.

Sing popular.

Yeah.

Popular. You're gonna be popular.

Alright.

What?

She's gotta be We've faded

her down. We listen to Jeremy all day.

Why did why did we fade that down? What is this?

This is

a crime against you, Ben. Personal music. I mean, we're

getting in trouble. Oh, please.

They're not watching. You

just ruined the moment.
