Transcript of The Marauding Voyeurs | Hour 3

I'd like to take this somewhere else with what it is that's happening throughout the entirety of the NBA, okay? Because the Sixers are 8-1, they smoked the Pistons last night in Detroit, and LeBron is telling everybody, "Hey, relax," even though Spurs and Philadelphia, if Embiid is healthy in any way—a giant, giant word, that "if." If Embiid is healthy, Spurs, Philadelphia is a lot of fun, as Wemby does what he does last night, which is totally ridiculous.

I—I think that's more about the Heat. Like, today's NBA—like, yes, what the Knicks did was crazy last postseason, but today's NBA, teams are coming back from 20 all the time.

Uh, understood. But the Heat having in 111 games, and in the finals, it happened every single time to the Spurs. But Wemby yesterday—look, if you fear that Wemby's going to take over the league, it's going to look like what last night looked like. That's an asinine stat line. Doncic is on a pace right now that hasn't been seen since Wilt. Get everybody the hell out of his way. Get LeBron out of here, get everybody out of here. Just give Doncic the ball, and—and you will see something unlike anything you've seen since Wilt in the sport.

Doncic averages 36 minutes a game, he scores 39 minutes a game.

39 points. No, you—what? Did you say that right?

Averages 36 minutes a game, scores 39 points a game.

That's crazy.

Says?

Did I screw it up the first time?

Yeah.

You know what I meant.

How's he been to that?

He's close.

Zaz and Tony have been anchors today. Do you realize how hard it is to make the Boner Pill guy the bronze medalist today?

Thank you.

Uh, Greg Cody, I have a couple of questions for you.

Sure.

One of them involving Brandon Ayouk, because I don't know what's happening with the 49ers there. But, uh, is Drew Rosenhaus and—are Drew Rosenhaus and Brandon Ayouk rolling a grenade across the 49ers' locker room floor of, "Nobody wants this guy here, and he's going to come walking into a winning team where nobody wants him because his behavior"? Uh, we've had a few of these over the last few years. Antonio Brown comes to mind, where a guy is behaving so erratically that I'm wondering, has football made someone a little off-crazy in a way that makes them want to actively, sort of, torpedo their career and all the money because they're not quite sane?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Because I don't—

I disagree back there, yeah.

Yeah.

There's mental health issues for people.

Prior to that. He's lost his credibility and gets reckless. Here is something we like to call reckless speculation.

You're good.

You're good.

The Brandon Ayouk thing: is it meant to throw tempest and mental health issues into the locker room?

Uh, no. I think it's meant to force the 49ers to release him so that he can go play somewhere else.

Yeah. And he has value elsewhere.

I don't know.

I—look, he's—he's still young. He's—he's a—a breakaway receiver. He's a deep threat.

Was.

He—he was. He was, but—

Been a—been a minute.

If—if you're the Kansas City Chiefs, for an obvious example, why wouldn't you give him a shot?

They would. Several reasons. Several reasons: the health, and what it does to your locker room, and his health, both physical and mental. I mean, we—the video is pretty compelling from the—the Niners' locker room. It doesn't seem like, uh, they're all too thrilled.

Tends to return to the facility on Friday.

Yeah. You know, I don't know if I really have anything to say about it. Um, kind of let that work its—work itself out. Yeah.

Ah, man. Uh, I—I don't know. It's not my—not my place, really. I'll—I'll damp him up. No hard feelings between me and him. On, uh, I—I don't make any of those decisions, so no. Not on my radar. Just focus on my job.

So like until he shows up and it's in your puddle as far as getting across the joint?

I haven't thought about it. Yeah.

They are fundamentally not prepared for the question. None of them. All three of them backpedaled.

Oh, yeah.

You know, uh, the—

Yeah.

CMC did hit the whole hard, credit to him. But, uh, two of the three were, "Ah."

Me.

I'll damp him up.

Quitting on your team.

Damping him up is—

What's up, bro?

—is the biggest sin in sports. Like, I—you know, I—I can look at that and I wish that some guys would have that attitude when a guy like Josh Jacobs is coming back into the locker room. I wish I would hear that.

Right.

Uh, we don't. But it—it shows you, like—like the biggest sin is quitting on your team.

Yeah, but if you're an o—another team that need—desperately needs a wide receiver, your attitude is going to be, "He's got a—a clean slate with us. We start from scratch."

Aren't you waiting for them to release him? No—I—I think there—there was a window of interest in Brandon Ayouk. Remember, there was the summer of Ayouk, where they were entertaining offers, and he signs the big deal. It was the biggest NFL transactional subplot of the entire summer.

Why didn't they trade him? Did—did they not want to trade him?

They—they ended up signing him.

Yeah, they ended up signing him.

To the—the big deal.

Then he had a multi-ligament tear in his knee, and that was that. And then obviously the rehab process led way to all the stuff that was happening here.

There's—there's—you know, it's probably a case for Pablo. But what I'm saying, Greg, is the time for, like, the trade acquisition probably came and went. This is about forcing them to set him free.

A couple of things here that are, uh, uncommon. He had a bunch of guaranteed money that the 49ers said, "We're not giving any of it to him because he has not been a professional in any way." Okay? And so I don't know how much here has a dark underbelly that none of us want to talk about, wherever it is that, uh, football and mental health and an assortment of other things end up colliding, where a guy that used to be good is no longer good. But I have a couple of quibbles here, and one of them is with Nick Wright, and I should have taken this up with him yesterday.

It's shocking, but it may be tied to the—the personnel.

No.

He is flatly not good at deep balls. Like, he is not good at throwing deep balls accurately to receivers, and this is one of the greatest deep ball throwers we had ever seen.

Nick Wright being unsurprised by me giving you a roster of every quarterback who has played three-game stretches over the last 20 years, and none of them are throwing the ball less downfield than Patrick Mahomes, that seems to be a shocking stat. It's—that would seem to make a desperate team who want to get people away from Kenneth Walker, away from Patrick Mahomes, and stretch the field. If you're desperate enough to do it with the practice squad kicker who's not even a real football player, why wouldn't you be desperate enough to do it with Brandon Ayouk?

You're right.

Yes. That—that's my point.

You're right, but it won't be via trade.

I'm not sure he's a deep threat either.

No. I mean, he's going to—

At this point, he'll do anything, probably.

They'll release him. They—they have no choice but to release him. He's poison in the locker room. We heard that from three players without hearing it directly. He's poison to that franchise, not to everybody else. He's not poison to anybody else. They'll give him a clean slate.

According to Scott Barrett, uh, DFB, on Twitter.

What did he say?

"Since Tyreek Hill left the Chiefs in 2022, Patrick Mahomes has fewer deep passing touchdowns than Will Levis. He's tied with backup QBs Aidan O'Connell and Mac Jones." I've been told by NFL people he's just not good at it right now, and he's not doing something that he's not good at.

I have a couple of questions for you, Mike Ryan. Uh, one of them is, are you wearing a costume today?

Yeah, the Coast Guard thing.

It's such a cop-out.

Was he not here when we covered—yeah, it's a—the Coast Guard lost, and I had to wear the losing mascot.

It's a tough one for him.

It is. Look, I—look.

Show me.

This is humiliating.

Ooh.

It doesn't—it doesn't button up.

You have been skirting around the edges of the rules on this Commissioner's League for a while now. You haven't suffered any real, uh, obvious punishments to anyone who's been watching you for a couple of years now.

Fine.

But do not worry. He will be handcuffed to Tony next week as they both suffer punishment. Mike also has two more he has to select as the Jets lost two weeks ago, Seahawks lost last week.

And I got the Raiders.

So we have those there.

No, it's—it's—it's garbage. Dan, I've been sitting here for the last 70, 80 minutes. I—I have—I have to urinate so bad.

I was re-used.

But I can't take off this—this deal. Like, I—I would have to take the whole thing off.

I was a Street Fighter. I mean, I'm picking from the board. It's not like I'm not picking from the board.

You're going to say with a straight face that you haven't been filled with on your costumes for two years?

Am I trying to find the ones that are easiest for me? Yes, I'll admit that. You got me. But I'm picking what's available. I'm not skirting the rules.

Okay, but you're coming in today, and you generally can take some fashion risks that—right on the line when I ask the question sincerely, are you wearing a costume today?

Well, thank you.

He's wearing a captain's hat. I got a blue arrow painted on my head.

I didn't pick that.

Dan Le Batard.

I want to address, uh, Tony and all men who would wear that shirt in public.

Greg Coty.

Don't do it.

This is the Dan Le Batard Show.

The other question I have for you, and this is, uh, uh, something that might be a little more shameful to you, so forgive me if I'm betraying a confidence here. You've had real stomach problems today. Is this Malachi-Tony related?

Yeah, and I'm not doing great. The protein shake in the morning is not settling.

You keep running in and out of the room saying, "Hey, I got to go. I got—you know, I—I'm—I can be here sometimes and I can't be here other times."

Sometimes I'm working the phones.

Yeah, hell yeah. Nick Caines, you're looking to make a trade?

Yep.

Your stomach problems, yes or no, they're related to this news that is a real disappointment that's in your stomach, uh, today.

Yeah, man, I wanted to—

Because you fear the season's ruined.

I wanted to win, uh, ooh, Dave Miranda, maybe to LSU. Bringing on the Saf. That's some breaking news.

If you sign Ayouk.

I wanted to win a six-national title in the worst way, and I thought that we were the best team in the nation, and I really, really thought that, um, we had an opportunity to get back to the national championship game. And now I'm really, really sweating, uh, getting to Charlotte because I think Miami is about to play a style that I think they probably need to play, which is murder ball. Like, all right, let's trade possessions. We're going to trust our defense to be the defense that we were prior to FSU and win this game in the margins. And while I think that's actually encouraging for the 7.5 in South Bend, it's also playing into the hands of teams that are less talented than you and Duke and Virginia Tech especially, and even Bill O'Brien's Boston College.

Now you've gone too far.

I am, uh, I am counting my lucky stars today that Syracuse beat SMU because I am genuinely worried about getting to the place where Malachi-Tony can rejoin this team.

Your Malachi stars?

Malachi.

Uh, you've gone too far with Bill O'Brien's Boston College. Take it back.

Got a win three.

I need you to take it back. I need you to take that. You have till the end of the segment to publicly take back that you think the University of Miami without Malachi-Tony will lose to Bill O'Brien's Boston College.

I'm not saying I think they will lose, but I'm saying, uh, there's a whole new world out there. And look, dude, the stats are damning.

There's a whole—

Damning.

There's a whole new world out there. That world does not include Bill O'Brien beating the University of Miami.

The stats are damning when Malachi-Tony is not on the field for this offense, which is the best offense in the nation. When you simply take him out, or even have him as a decoy, as he was, even though he caught a touchdown as a decoy at Wake. When you simply have him as a decoy and he is not himself, this offense looks totally different.

Can I ask you guys in all seriousness here on this in terms of college football? Because this—this sounds asinine some of this. It really does. Even though the stats are damning, the statistics are crazy. If you watch this team when he went out against Wake Forest, it went from this—this is—this happened. Mensah's completing 20 straight passes, and at halftime, the sideline reporter comes out and says, "Coach feels like his defense has been really great against the University of Miami, that they slowed down Miami."

I'm scared—I'm scared of not getting to Charlotte. It's kind of been the deal, uh, with this program. I—I—like I said, I've canceled this hotel numerous times. I think Miami will get to the ACC Championship, but I don't think it's without a sweat. Now, Mario Crisaball went without three of his best players to Columbus and won with an Oregon team. Mario Crisaball and Shannon Dawson had the best offense in the nation with Jacobi George, Xavier Restreppo, and Damian Martinez. But this is a late-season pivot, and we have been heavily reliant.

But do you guys understand what I'm saying here? There's no such thing as a consensus number one team who doesn't lose its quarterback, loses a single player, and everyone's like, "Nah, they're seasons done. They're going—they could possibly lose their next three games." Like, in what world? In what world is a player that important? In what world do you forget about all the things that Mario Crisaball is supposed to be about running offense and you can't? You're—you're saying, "No, we're going to need to change our entire game plan," and we still got the guy who's going to be at quarterback in the Heisman Room.

I mean, that's what happened in the program when Joe Cain had to go to rehab and—and the season went into tank, but he was a quarterback, you know, so.

Well, but—and not all—not just a quarterback. They're talking about a number one pick. And it—it doesn't make any sense to me. It honestly doesn't. But let me—let me segue here to a couple of other things outside of the University of Miami.

Jeremy's got a good answer to that. It kind of caught me by surprise. I hadn't considered the non-quarterback question, but this is a great example.

The best example I could find is 2011 South Carolina. They were ranked 12th in the nation with Marcus Lattimore as their lead running back. They immediately lost the next week once he blew out his knee. They lost two more games over the course of the rest of the season and were never close to the playoffs.

Uh, that team did not have the number one overall pick at quarterback possibly. Like, and—and so.

Man, do you want an answer to your question or not?

There is not an answer. It's important. There's not one.

Yeah, I mean, there's not—there very rarely is there a talent like this. Very rarely is there a position player that's not quarterback that is a favorite for Heisman. Jeremy—if Jeremy Smith got hurt, it would nuke Ohio State probably even more than Sayan's injury did.

Yeah.

I still think that the concern is Miami's defense more than it is Miami's offense without Malachi-Tony. That's what I think.

Greg, I support you.

Especially the attack defense.

I—I support you. Miami's defense the rest of the way cannot be average. It certainly cannot be what it's been the last three weeks. Miami's defense, in order to get this team to a place where Malachi-Tony can rejoin them, needs to be good. Needs to be a really good defense.

Yes.

And the last month has really put that in doubt.

Why do we pretend as if Mark Fletcher isn't awesome?

Well, brother, he—I—I—I think the more important running back in that room right now, especially in this game, and I know that we're going to get 20 Mark Fletcher carries, and he's a—he's a pillar to help bring this program back. All-time leading CFP rusher. It's JV Mallory for me. It's JV Mallory. That's—that's the answer in terms of what this game in particular calls for. I think it calls for a running back with vision.

Yeah, so why do we pretend like those guys aren't awesome?

Uh, the thing that I'm simply doing here is in the next two days, the University of Miami, and this is quite the flip, and they've got a—it's an emergency. The game North Carolina just played against them is the game they need to play against Notre Dame. Uh, it's got to be get us in second and two. Get us—it's control the ball. It's our defensive, uh, our secondary is weak against their pass offense. This is possibly the best quarterback that we're playing. The point spread keeps climbing because the betting money is on the fact that they think Carr is going to be able to control the passing offense against this defense.

Yeah, there—there's been people on social media questioning how something like this happens. How do you have a practice? Because Malachi-Tony has been carrying an injury. There's video out there of him post-UNC game walking down a ramp gingerly. And you ask the question, like, how does—how is he going that hard in practice that someone can get tangled up? I don't know the nature of how this happened. Um, obviously, there's a lot of questions about how they're not swarming to the ball, and that's something that you cover in practice. But Mario Crisaball teams practice a certain way, and this is very much a next man up mentality.

What do you think of this stat on Mahomes? He's got more playoff wins than passing touchdowns of more than 20 air yards since Tyreek Hill left. That Patrick Mahomes has more playoff wins than a touchdown of more than 20 yards. And I think some of those are to Kelsey where he's grabbing the ball somewhere and running. It ain't like he's throwing it down the field.

Yeah, it's—it's surprising. I was surprised to learn a couple weeks ago that Patrick Mahomes is no longer what I would call—I would—I would still call him the best deep ball thrower I've ever seen. Flatly not good at it anymore.

I wanted to ask all of you something, uh, that happened to me yesterday that is still not my normal, will never be my normal. I find it, uh, like appalling and really bothersome, and yet it is happening, uh, so much in my house that I had to go and get help with my phone yesterday and just sort of take off of my phone a bunch of stuff because of how clearly.

All places are listening to me.

I was talking to my wife about the fact that we cannot get the dog to stop barking, uh, when an elevator dings far away. And then I start getting all sorts of advertisements that are obviously targeted toward getting a dog to stop barking. And it's bothersome to me, and I know it's normal, but you guys are noticing this in your house all the time that we have just come to accept that our devices are absolutely listening to us?

Yeah, but I—I don't know. It doesn't bother me. You—you want to listen to me? Listen to me. What's going on in my house? Whatever.

It's not like you're plotting a bank robbery. I mean, what if people said, "Did they get you? What'd you buy?"

You're not offended. Well, they tempted me.

Come on. I know you bought something. Something like absurd.

No, I didn't know.

Barkstopper.

Barkstopper's called a shock collar. I didn't know. I—well, we tried that for a while, and I didn't like it because I don't like electrocuting my dog.

Brought in a Caesar-type guy just to, like, train the dog or something. Come on. You did something.

No, I didn't.

Caesar-type guy and as opposed to actual Caesar.

Yeah, actual Caesar Malone.

Yeah, he's got the money for it.

Caesar.

All that guy advertises.

All that guy does.

Caesar-type. You know what his secret is? He does do that a lot. That's it. That's his whole gimmick.

It's effective.

You sound like bugs dying in a zapper. I didn't buy anything. I can't believe how casual you guys are about—you're all shrugging your shoulders about your privacy being made.

I can't believe you're just getting around to this one, pal.

No, I'm used to it.

It's constantly around.

What am I saying that you can't hear?

I'm—I'm just getting around to it because it's never been quite as obvious as that. There are all sorts of hints I have. There has never been something as obvious as, "No, my device was clearly listening to me. I was just talking to my wife about this in front of my phone." And what happened is—and what it makes me wonder is the how of all that. Is there someone somewhere? Or is this all artificial intelligence? Is my information ending up with an actual human being anywhere in the world?

We—we've covered this trying to get to the bottom of it because it has been a show topic before. The pos—it's highly possible that at one point someone in that household has Googled something that would suggest that, and your IG might have taken that hint. Um, uh, or if it was someone else that came into your home and shared that router, it could be a possibility. Or your devices could straight up be listening to you. In fact, there's a setting on your iPhone that you actually have to turn off because anybody with your Apple ID login can just listen in live and it becomes a microphone.

You know what? I'm going to turn mine on. Whatever.

Oh, you don't know that?

Yeah.

Me and Mike—me and Mike turned it off already.

We turned it off.

No, we can't tell you. Sorry.

You're allowing, uh, listening cucks all over the universe to be voyeurs and, uh, and just watch and listen to whatever they want.

You want to have a look? Have a look. Whatever. I got nothing to hide.

You got a couple things to hide, buddy.

Yeah, I got nothing to hide. I'm an open book.

You want to have a look? Have at it?

Have at it. You know, like people go through the airport security. They don't want to go in the machine there because, oh, who they could see your naked body. You want to have a look? Have a look.

I saw you in that Oscar suit. I don't want to see you anymore. Yeah. So go to your settings.

Why does this even exist?

Yeah, go to your settings and—and search for remote control. Search for remote control. You'll see that it's on.

Yeah, mine was on.

Yeah, yours was on.

Yeah.

Yeah, go ahead and, uh, switch that thing off.

It says, "You have my ID." Nothing to hide. Whatever, you know.

This is a free service. A lot of people don't know about this. Turn off remote control.

We're just trying to help.

Oh, thank you.

They're going to look at pictures of you. Okay, good. Print out a wallet size. Whatever.

I don't know why I'm receiving Zaz, and it may just be his general physical appearance. You want to have a look? Have a look. I'm receiving that as a threat.

Yeah. I don't.

You're saying I know. I very much don't want to have a look. And Zaz is just—Zaz is just daring every Marauding Voyeur. You know, take a look at it. Drink it in. Have at it.

Marauding Voyeur. This is what I got to offer.

My wife and I have taken to communicating at home in pig Latin to, uh, confound the devices.

Put on the poll at Le Batard Show if you want to have a look. Have a look. Yes or no. I can't believe how casual you guys all are about, "Yeah, my privacy's being invaded," and I've—I've accepted it. I—I've accepted it. I have no complaints. I have no observations. And if you want to have a look, have a look. Have a look.

Pig Latin?

Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. You know what? Thank you, Chris. You're right about this, and this is delayed, and I'm sorry, but it's just useless.

You can tell it was coming from a mile away too. I've got a bad joke to make.

Yeah, I haven't made a bad one in a while. Have you guys missed me? You brought that onion guy in here. I didn't get to talk as much as I like. Here's—

Hey, guys, this'll help.

Here's a little floating turd for you guys. A little pig Latin joke. I didn't have this conversation with my wife at all. Here's a little lazy nothing for your perusal. Marauding turd giver. It's just nothing. You just—you weren't trying at all. Just, "Hey, here's a pig Latin joke." Just lazy after getting the day named after him in Plantation.

Damn right.

How's our petition going, Jeremy?

Don't say the number. Just say a lot of people.

No, I mean a lot of people thus far.

Say the exact number.

We have 47 signatures.

Say dozens.

And that's just over the last 20 minutes. We've jumped up from 20 to 47.

How about that?

So I mean, we're nearly tripling the numbers. There's your—there's your petition right there. If you want to scan that QR code and joining us and changing the name of Plantation Florida to Codyville.

Keep that right there for a second.

Greg, you deserve this from that pig Latin joke. Like, just—

It's not my photo. I'm signing the petition.

What do you mean?

It's not me.

I Googled Greg Cody. That was the first thing that came up.

Uh, something that didn't come up yesterday, and I was—I was surprised by this, and I was surprised that I was unaware of this. I don't know whether I'll be surprising anyone in the room. Uh, but I don't believe that what is about to come out is either a John Madden movie or a Nicolas Cage movie. I was not aware until yesterday that Christian Bale is playing Al Davis. That sounds to me like a Christian Bale movie and an Al Davis movie, not a Nicolas Cage movie and not a John Madden movie.

That's what I'm saying. You're telling me this was going to be terrible? Christian Bale.

Well, but I did not know until yesterday that Christian Bale is in that movie. And all we've been doing is, uh, Mike Ryans, Nicolas Cage as John Madden. Christian Bale.

I'm here.

What an unusual choice for Christian Bale to choose to play Al Davis. I don't know if you guys saw him interviewed by ESPN. Christian Bale sounds nothing in real life like you're used to hearing Christian Bale. He hides his accent in the movies in a way. I mean, Christian Bale is one of the top five actors of—of now for sure. And you can put him in any conversation with any actor ever in terms of being great at it. Al Davis, Christian Bale is more interesting to me.

I hear you, but we love David O. Russell, and we jump at the chance to work with him. It's like going to director school. You know, it's a great hot name in directing. Hot.

You knew this, Zaz? You were aware? I was not.

Yeah.

I simply didn't know. Uh, put it on the poll at Le Batard Show. Did you know that Christian Bale was in that John Madden movie? And did you know that Al Davis is a lot more interesting than John Madden?

Debatable. That's been my main argument with people who are, you know, deciding to pan this movie who haven't even seen it yet. It's David O. Russell who has done Academy Award nominated films, and Christian Bale is in it.

I'm shocked that you find Al Davis more interesting than John Madden. I don't. I'm more interested in a John Madden movie, in a biography of John Madden.

You don't find more interesting, unlikable, and controversial than likable and not controversial?

No, not in this case. I—I—I don't think controversy is—is the basis of someone who.

You don't—you don't find somebody who was willing to fight the league and fight everybody at every turn more interesting than someone everyone in the league loved?

No. Not in this case.

I'm not wearing football pads.

It's a dichotomy.

Chris Mortensen.

Oh, what?

That's my Al Davis impression.

Mortensen. Just win, baby. Mortensen.

No. John Madden, one of the most interesting people on Earth.

Did you see the trailer for Lords of War?

Was.

Was.

They're making a new one?

They're making a sequel to Lord of War, which is one of the great underrated Nicolas Cage movies.

Nicolas Cage is in this one too?

Nicolas Cage is in this movie.

And this is Lords multiple?

There's two warlords now. It's him and Bill Skarsgård.

Is Jared Leto in it again?

I don't think so.

All right, good, because he's poison.

I'm surprised by what Greg Cody is saying here. Do I have it wrong, or does Greg Cody have it wrong? If you're measuring interesting, do you think the controversial, unlikable people are more or less interesting than non-controversial, likable people?

I don't think the general public knows who Al Davis is the way they know John Madden.

Thank you.

Uh, agreed. Uh, but I wasn't talking about who's more famous. I was talking about who's more interesting.

But that's—I mean, I'm just saying that that's why Madden's going to be the center of this movie.

I—but again, I'm—that's not—I'm not quibbling with that. I'm quibbling with Greg Cody's contention. I'm not saying that the movie's not going to be more successful because it involves the more famous and likable person. I'm just talking about interesting. Christian Bale choosing to play this character is more interesting than Nicolas Cage choosing to play that one.

I'm—I'm just saying, unless you're Jerry Jones, uh, I don't think anybody really cares about owners in sports. George Steinbrenner was an exception. Jerry Jones is an exception. I don't think Al Davis is in that category for me personally.

It seems like you're more intrigued by Christian Bale doing it than, like, if you knew Al Davis was going to be part of this movie.

No, no, no. Guys, the history of Al Davis is unquestionably more interesting than John Madden's. He was fighting with the league all the time.

Right, but like.

We don't even have owners like that anymore.

Yeah, but you weren't—I just feel like you weren't saying that until you found out Christian Bale is in it. Like, when you have thought the whole time that Al Davis would be in this movie. So it's just—I don't know.

Agreed, but I'm more interested in the choices that Christian Bale makes than the ones that Nicolas Cage makes because Nicolas Cage is doing a million movies, and he'll do whatever it is you ask him to do, and he'll do it crazy.

So you're getting both things. You seem pumped.

Yeah, that's a—it could be a movie about that too. Tune in. Why are you yelling?

Because he's got a losing argument. That's why he's arguing.

I mean, he was interested in the—the—the choices that Christian Bale makes. This is one of them. You actually get to see him as Al Davis in this movie. You get—they'll probably cover some of that stuff.

I think if you ask 100 people randomly chosen.

How about two?

Would you rather watch a movie about John Madden or about Al Davis? I think you would be shocked that Madden would win to the tune of 85 to 15.

Has nothing to do with what it is that I was asking.

I want you to go around and ask 100 people that and get those results.

I'm going to. I'm going to. And they're going to go, "Al, who?"

Can you please, uh, Roy, because we want to apply some sort of balm to Mike's stomach before we have to deal with him the rest of the day, Mike Ryan came in here with a wheel of, uh, Miami issues, and he wanted to talk about an assortment of things, but we do not have it at the time today to talk about all of the things that he wishes to talk about. So would you please spin the wheel here, and I will tell you the categories that are on it. And please, Greg Cody, tell me what it is that this lands on because, uh, Mike's wheel has, uh, Malachi's injury, Malachi's replacement.

Oh, wow. Still spinning.

It's still spinning. You can't say the wow until it's done.

He was able to tell.

No, that's what I was hoping it would land on. It's the women's opener against FAU.

Coach Gullib's ladies came out strong. Two prestige Final Four brands at the Watts Goes Center: FAU basketball and Miami Hurricanes basketball. Remember, they made a Final Four in the same exact year, just on the men's side. Uh, easy victory. Uh, Ane Adams was unbelievable. Shorter player, but can absolutely shoot from outside. Going to be more competitive than I thought.

Well, how about that? Foul out on the prowl, but not the other night.

Spin it again. Oh, wow.

I don't like those know-it-all people that know when that thing's going. They, like, try to predict it three clicks away. It's like, "We get it." You watch Wheel of Fortune.

Uh, Greg, what did that land on?

Uh, I forget the other categories. What were they?

Just look at the wheel.

Just look at the wheel, Greg.

Oh, yeah. Um, defensive personnel.

I like—I like to see, uh, Moore Torre, who died in college station, blitz a little bit more than our nickel corner. Um, we've been struggling tackling because we've been sending smaller guys. Moore Torre has zero sacks for the University of Miami this season. He had 13 and a half at Rutgers as a pass rusher. Send him more.
