I don't know if you guys feel this. Who's rummaging around with their microphones? That Samson already grabbing his microphone. We've started and the first thing that Samson does is pause on the microphone. It's the seat. This is set for Greg, I believe. I know, but my phone was nowhere near here. Yeah, but why didn't you fix all of that before they counted us in? As opposed to when they told us we're on the air. I was trying to get the chair higher. It's also set so low purposely for a power dynamic. I assume Pablo does that. It drives me crazy. You know who does that? The most cowherd does that. Go look at the original set where cowherd was just sort of lorning. Oh, he was on a throne. Lorning over his ground there. It looked like he was levitating with his armors just sitting up into the raptors. Like, what is, why are you so tall? You guys got to find me that picture of Colin Cowherd with the giant desk. Where would you start today, those as? Because I have, when football gets here, there's just too much as we start our work week. And already, there's too much. Where would you start today? Cain's.
I think what we saw, I think the Cain's you can make the case were the most impressive team in the country over the weekend. And I think that is. Stanford's really bad. Okay. But they went, but they went on the road and as opposed to, although in the West Coast, but and as opposed to needing any time to kind of, you know, shake off any rust, they just look like a juggernaut from the get go. Their offense is going to be good all season long, at least in part because of how unbelievably soft their schedule is. But I think we should start with things I just learned this morning about how Roy and Chris Cody ruined, I can't believe I'm even saying this phrase, ruined a funeral. What? There we go. I guess we're doing that. That's what I heard too. That's what I'd like to do because I can't, I can't believe that both Roy and Chris, they were both noticed greatly. I mean, let's think about what we're talking about here. In my name's first in this situation, I'm ruining everything, apparently. But everything, just a funeral, which I, you know, was bad. Funeral's are tough enough as they are.
Look, supposed to make everyone feel better at the funeral. Can you imagine the game we could play? Would you go to a funeral and now we have an actual example of who would go and who wouldn't? Oh, did you notice where you taking inventory of who didn't show up? Because I felt like I saw a moment that was really touching to me. You seemed at your darkest hour in a great deal of pain. I don't know whether I have this right or not because I was at a distance. You seem to be genuinely moved by a mean being there, that, I mean, flew in to be there. So it was very meaningful that a mean was there and I have very few recollections, but there was a log book. And I've been going over to log book in the two months since. So I've seen names. Yeah, you gotta sign that so that everybody knows who you're there. You have to. Otherwise, why go? You gotta. Otherwise, why go? That was actually an interesting part. There was like one really long line to sign that book and there was an empty book that no one was signing. So it was like everyone was in one line when there should have been two lines because there was two books there.
And I remember some lady was very sweet. She basically was like, all right, this is ridiculous and she got the second line moving. So I was actually the first person to sign on that second. Also, it looks like you were the first person in the morning to show up. I honestly felt it did, but also I felt uneasy about it. I was like, I wanted to just stay in this line. Everyone was in this lady went rogue and she was like, this should be too long. It was just a real stress thing for me. I didn't know whether to stay in the long line. I only saw one book. What? Completely panicked right now because your name don't recall seeing it. I just signed the wrong book. Well, ladies screwed me. Were there not two books? Were there only one? There was an empty book and then there was one long line and the lady was like seven people back and she went to the front. She's like, hey, we should be in two lines here. Let's move it around. What did she look like? Maybe Dave Moose? I have to go find a second book now. David Samson just said, why else would you go to a funeral except to sign the book? Just to prove that you were there. That's what Samson just said. This is a difficult conversation.
We haven't even gotten into how it is that Chris and Roy ruined the funeral. I didn't ruin the funeral. Get it right. I ruined everything else. You are listening to the Dunl Avatar Show. In partnership with the Draft King Sports Act. Now live in all 50 estates. I ruined Shiva. All right? Get it right. We'll get to that in a second. We'll find out exactly what it is that he ruined because I don't have all the details here, but I am amazed that both you and Roy did the wrong thing. Somewhere within David Samson, you're sitting here. Do you know what you did or do you not know what you did, Roy? I do not know what I did. All right. We'll get to that in a second, but I do believe that Zaz is right when he celebrates the University of Miami. You've got, with Malachi Tony, you have the possibility here that the University of Miami and I don't think I'm hyperventilating or overstating this might have its best quarterback
receiver combination here by the time that it's done. And I'm putting that in the class with Vinny Testiverty and Michael Irvin and Ken Dorsey and Andre Johnson. Like I'm putting this at the top of the class. That's not a normal game for a receiver to have a 12 catches unstoppable when you know all offseason that that's the guy you've got to stop. Malachi. It was crazy because every time he would run a route, he was 10 yards open. Nobody was around him. He would make a move and it's like, where's the defender? Their receivers weren't very good the last couple of years. They are now and this quarterback is better than Beck. I'm willing to say that. Like I believe that this quarterback, his throws down the field, accurate. 12 of 14, 10 plus yards down the field. The most amazing stat involving Tony is the 154 career receptions without a drop. Like what is that? Were you willing to sit up before the game against Stanford or you're just saying it now after the game? I needed to see a man saw. I needed to see a game. Yes, it's been a game. So that's it. That's receiver quarterback after one game.
Fair point by you, but it's not just one game. It's what he did last year versus growth. What he did last year is a 17 year old, okay? To come out and have that game when they know they've got to guard him. He's faster. He's last year, the weird thing about him, it's a weird thing to say because of how quick he is. He's not the fastest. He's not the fastest player on the field. He's quick, not the fastest. He's faster this year. He's more of an adult this year. And so I'm willing to already put in the conversation that Mensa down the field is going to be a special quarterback and their schedule. Tony, go look at their schedule for me. Is it wait for us and pit? Like is that who's this year's Louisville and SMU? Who's the coach that's going to get them? Louisville. I think they're going to be, I think they're going to be double digit favorites in all of their games except the Notre Dame game. Do I have this wrong? Yeah. I mean, I'm looking at their schedule right now. All of the games that have a line on them except for Notre Dame and Clemson right now,
believe it or not, they're only a seven point favorite at Clemson. Emotional. Clemson, after what we saw happen, you know, at batting. That line can't be right. That line is going to be weird. It's weird. You like the game should be twice that. Yeah. I think they're going to be double digit favorites in all of their games except Notre Dame before the ACC championship game. I think they're going to very obviously play for the ACC championship if their quarterback does not get injured. Later on in the season, obviously we have to see how Virginia Tech does. That could be an interesting one because it's a Virginia Tech is usually a good rival for the Canes, but it's in Miami. That's what I'm saying. So like, we'll see where it is. Maybe a nine and a half points. I'm not saying that they're not going to lose a game. I'm not saying that they can't beat what I'm saying about this team that I haven't been able to say about it. Miami team since 2001 is they're going to be better than all of the teams that they get on a field with except for Notre Dame before the ACC championship game. Notre Dame, we can have a conversation, but all those other games, you're not going to say that about pit. They're simply going to be better than all of the teams they're playing against that.
Hey, how you feeling about laying 55 and a half on Thursday? We're doing that 55 and a half. David, 55 and a half, a lot of points. I'm just trying to understand that what the line movement is because Clemson loses 50, what do they lose 50 to 10 or something? 51 10. And how many points does that translate into? In line. In line. In line. But they only knew that because of 51 10. So before 51 10, the Miami line was right after 51 10, the Miami line changes. Yeah, because you realize Clemson is terrible. Yeah, but we didn't think Clemson was terrible before the game. Yeah, we they were terrible last year and there's new information and you see a gulf of difference between LSU and Clemson. Look, man, what were the numbers in that game in terms of the differences between? A lot of them. No, no, but it's not just it's not just those stats. It's not just a lot to not a lot. Okay. Are we talking about LSU Clemson? It's it's a difference of 499 total yards between LSU and Clemson. It's a difference in rushing between 309 for LSU and 40 for Clemson. And by the way, LSU could not run the football last year.
Well, but LSU ran 47 plays in Clemson territory. LSU Clemson ran six in LSU territory. Like the difference between Clemson LSU is enough. If you wanted to fire dabbo today, I'd be like, yeah, it's falling apart in Clemson. They're not going to be what they were. Have you seen this circulating around Twitter, Dan, that someone in the LSU locker room, they recorded on their phone without Lane Kiffin knowing they recorded Lane Kiffin's halftime speech? They're up 31 to 3 in this moment, LSU. And like the video starts with the phone holding down and hiding it because the video is focused on someone's feet, so that no one can find it. Listen to this. This is Lane Kiffin again. We're ahead 31 to 3. All right, guys, we started here like 7, 8 months ago, whatever it was. And we asked you to work really hard. Okay, do you feel good about what happened? I don't know. Who kicked the f*** what happened? That's what's supposed to happen. It doesn't matter what place they run. It doesn't matter what they do on office, people put the next move in the quarter back in.
I don't give a f*** you said a f***ing message. Who the f*** is on their schedule? They have to play you. If you don't think we like my play, the matter if you're in a game for one snap or 50 more snaps, you f***ing take it out on them. Don't f*** the whole world hate you. Take it to your sister's show, don't f*** yourself. Kiffin just had to take it right now. T-My 3123. Is that a nice thing to say to a kid that the whole world hates you? You're on the pull-out levitage show. It's a nice thing to say to a kid that the whole world hates me. Shouldn't have been the whole world hates me. He's projecting. Did you guys read any of the excerpts from the Vanity Fair story on Lane Kiffin? They're great. They're great details in there. And I'm judging from the looks on your face that you guys don't know what some of these details are. I saw some about him being all horned up. Well, it's not just all horned up. He wouldn't go by his name in bars allegedly when he was trolling the campus at Alabama. And Nick Sabin was worried, keep him away from the sorority girls. Nick Sabin was, you're laughing at that.
That's a little troubling, but he was drinking too much reportedly, and he had an alias that he went with so that people wouldn't know that it was Lane Kiffin hitting on them. And his saying was, where the hottie's at because his family and he was getting divorced, his family wasn't with him. Do you know what his alias was? Because I'm looking at your guy's faces. You must not have read this story because if you saw how it is that Lane Kiffin introduced himself, everyone here would be howling and everyone here would be saying immediately what that name is. So it's better than Roy's Jack Diggler, Jack Spade, or Michael Bix. Ron Mexico, it is not Ron Mexico. It is not dirt digler. It is not Roy's hotel alias of Jack Spade. Just in case it is. Lane Kiffin would introduce himself reportedly as Joey Freshwater. Oh, get the hell out of here. Is that a Native American name?
I don't think he was... What's he going for? I don't know. Doesn't that sound like someone from Dances with Wolves? It is, but I don't know. It is because you know, all you're doing is, it sounds like a Native American name because he's going with Freshwater, yes. But I don't think that that's relevant here in that Lane Kiffin in both name and look, is the single whitest person going. Dan, there may be a school of thought that says he might have been thinking about you when he created that alias. Because if I remember correctly, a lot of the stuff that he was talking about in Mississippi was the dirty water. And he might have been thinking back to that interview being like, hmm, dirty water, fresh water. Well, this wasn't with him in Mississippi. This was at Alabama before we did the interviews with him at Sabin, Sabin hated him and watch what Kiffin does with the kinds of players that Sabin got at LSU because obviously that's a good program and obviously they get great players and have been underachieving. Look, man, they won championships for not one, but two fools in Ed Orgeron and Les Miles.
Not one, but two. Now put them in Lane Kiffin's hands, those kinds of athletes and you see what happens to Clemson and Davos Sweeney. But I want to go back to the University of Miami for a second because I know people are going to think that I'm overreacting, but that schedule with these players makes it so that, you know, Malachai Tony is breaking the start of the season and Jeremiah Smith immediately has to do some catching up. And now we've got a wide receiver Heisman race, which we never have right off of the top because of he did it in a prime time game. He did it at night when nobody else was watching any other games and it's 12 catch-ins, 234 yards, three touchdowns. Zaz, there have been a lot of great receivers at this school. None of them has ever had that game. Like that game has never been had by any of the NFL guys who played for the University of Miami. The coolest part to me, I think, is just that he has become this local legend. You know, he grew up here, he visits the high schools and the kids love him here and then
the very first performance that they have on the season. He does that. And like he was, it was like the second or third passing play of the game. He was a 50 yard catch and run and it's really cool the name that he's made for himself down here as a local kid. Football season is officially back, which means my weekends no longer belong to me. Saturday is for college football, the second I wake up. Sunday, we do it all over again with the NFL and somewhere in there, I'll probably convince myself I need one more TV. This is what we've been waiting for, right? Getting friends together, having the games on all day, arguing about teams, we barely watched and worked up opinions over. Having a cold Miller Light in my hand? That's what makes it legendary folks. That's a legendary game day for me. Miller Light is my go-to because it's crisp, refreshing and has a clean finish. Miller Light cools my body down. Sometimes I hold that beautiful white cam right to the forehead instantly. The temperature drops and the vibes go up.

This is the damn laboratory show. It's really, and I don't want to be the negative. Till you hear. No, I really don't, but I just, let's get a national championship. Let's. Oh, so nothing until then? Well, we got to the final game. Yes, but I'm saying don't recall Mike being very upset. But just don't talk about, look, I don't talk. I'm happy for you to talk about. It's fun to talk about. So don't get excited though. Don't be anointed as the greatest player ever to play for Miami with the history that the hurricane has. It is mind-bottom. No, I'm not saying he's the greatest player that Miami's right now.
The greatest player. No, I received a quarterback combination ever. Test of verdict. Didn't you say that? They're going to be in the cup. They are going to be in the, I believe that this quarterback is better than back. I don't believe that's an indictment of back. I feel like we can know what we're watching, even though we've only seen one game. Look, it's not just that, though, Zaz. We knew immediately on cam ward. Oh, look, that's a professional quarterback. Back, less so. This throwing the ball down the field, even against a soft opponent is how I believe the Miami offense is going to look all year against the defenses on its schedule. That's what I'm saying. Like, that's why I said the Keynes, I think they were the most impressive team over the weekend. You counter with OK Stanford's terrible. I know what I'm watching. This is the other thing, though, and I don't believe that when people watch college football that this is something that they did last year, and I think they should have. Carson Beck was playing almost a different sport than the other quarterbacks with the amount of time that he had. I don't know if this offensive line is going to be that.
I know this defensive line is not going to be what last years was. Like Mike Ryan kept talking about these guys in the spring, and he can believe in them. But Miami's never had one pass rusher that goes in the first round edge rusher, and they had two last year. There's no way this defensive line is going to be as good as that defensive line. So if they lose, it will be on defense. And I think it's fair to say, Samson, Stanford doesn't test you there. That I'm not going to make any determinations on the defense based on its mothering Stanford. Other than you'll make assumptions on the offense. On defense, I'm not doing it on offense. Just offense. Look, this is why, though. This is why you try to temper my enthusiasm, and it's why it won't be tempered. The University of Miami has a Tyree kill. It's not just that it's a good receiver. It's a power cable. Like it's an electricity force where can change a game with a play. They've got a game breaker. They've got someone that everyone in the world knows you have to stop and no one can. Like he's the guy you got to stop against a higher state. He's the guy you got to stop. How you going to stop him?
And when they try to, their other receivers are good enough now, Zaz, and their quarterback is good enough that I believe that Ments is going to be allowed to play a different game than the rest of the people in this sport. If this offensive line is what I think it is because you've always got this. Mask kicks ass. Yeah, it feels to me a little bit like what we saw in 2000 and then 2001. We're in 2000. It was kind of like, it was the very beginning. Man, they should have been able to play in the national championship game. They got screwed at the BCS and then the next year they kicked the shit out of everybody and they win the whole thing. And last year they make the run. All right, they lose in the national championship game. And now this year it's like, all right. They should kick the shit out of everyone. I'm picturing Dan watching the game this weekend, saying to himself, I am not going to repeat what happened last year. I am not going to get on the air and say, eh, they're okay. And then be proven wrong. He was late to the party last year. So late. They're showing up super early this year. It's too early. Like, such overcome. Like it starts at 6 p.m. and he shows up around 2.30 and they're still sleeping or something.
Can you imagine who would do that? No idea. I mean, you just have to, you just have to run stuff. To be fair, David, you ask like, are we anointing Malachi Tony too early? He's already by statistics the best receiver in University of Miami football history. Like already, as a 17 year old, first game against Notre Dame. He makes plays where like, oh, wait a second. That guy's the first round pick. Like where, where did this come from? And now as he graduates and gets older, you're looking at him saying, all right, 12 for 234 in three touchdowns, breaks the Heisman pose out three times against Stanford in the first game. Too much. Like, he might be like, I don't want to see seven Heisman pose like it was only three after three touchdowns at 234. Jeremiah Smith did it. Another guy did it. He's great too. I get it guys. You want to have your Heisman moment? Like, is he going to do it every week now? Is there a Heisman moment that happens in week one or a week zero? That would be interesting. That would be interesting. Depends. Depends. I've never seen it before. It's been through playing. Malachi. Put it on the pole at Levitard show are too many people doing the Heisman pose because I do believe it's been devalued.
The first time I saw it, it was really cool. It was Desmond Howard a long time ago. Right. Desmond Howard did it perfectly. A Florida Gator did it this weekend. I thought I'm saying, dude. It's too much. But a Florida Gator did it poorly this weekend. Like, Desmond Howard did it perfectly. He did it with one leg up in the air. Arm stiff out. It looked like he had an imaginary football like the ones that Tony threw at that FIU quarterback workout. In one hand, the one to do it best where an agreement says was the originator, Yoji Desmond Howard. Yes. And now it's too much. No, I don't think it's too much. I'm fine with it. The reason why it's too much is that it ends up meaning nothing. If you do something over and over and over again, it ruins its entire appeal. No, it means something because it was Malachi Tony making sure everybody knows I'm in this conversation right now from week one. The only names that we were talking about, it's, you know, we're talking about Julian Sain and Jeremiah Smith and...
Darian Mensa? Well, no, he wasn't one at the start of the season. I'm talking about Archmaning. I'm talking about the guys at the very beginning of the season we're talking about. And Malachi Tony is letting everybody know I'm in this conversation right now. And he should be. And he should be. It's like he broke it out after one catch for 34 yards in a touchdown. And I was like, oh, wow, he had a, you know, one catch. No, he had 12 catches, 234 is three touchdowns. You break it out. You don't do it again until Notre Dame. That's the role. Like, uh, you get one opening night. Notre Dame week, you can do it again. Yeah, he does. No, no, no, no, it's right. He can do it in the game next week. No, Chris is right. Like, he, he established himself. I am a Heisman candidate. There's no reason to do it again until some, maybe not at all this season, but certainly not until something huge happens. Chris is right because it was so huge against Stanford. No, again, it's establishing. I am here. You better include me. The foundation. Yes. That's it. The foundation. That's one of the great arguments of all time. You don't need to actually have it. You can get into a conversation by not inserting yourself into the conversation with quality.
No, no, you need to weak quality. No, no, no. It's part of what this canes brand is. Okay. It's, it's not just kicking everyone's ass. You're going to let them know about it too. See it get out there. You do the Heisman pose. It's part of who they are. I'm into it. Exactly right. And that's why you break it out against Clemson when you get your lick back from 58 nothing. You're right. You remember that? You're running down the hill. You kicked the rash 58 nothing. You break out the Heisman pose right there. I'm telling you, the Canes M.O. That game against Clemson. It's October 3rd. Get your lick back. Should be to get dabble fire the next day. All of you noticed what Michael Irving's body looks like as he approaches 60 years old with all his belt slapping on the sidelines, right? All of you noticed the six pack when the shirt came up and that he's got the body of a 20 year old that he's completely shredded. And he was all with us last week and I was grateful that he didn't get mad when I said not many teams have a hall of fame or as their mascot. And he said, you're offended by that. Well, he said, you're only permitted to say that because you've known me 40 years and
I did appreciate the grace from him. He shouldn't be offended by it though because he is a mascot. I guess his insulting cheerleader. I guess his insulting, but he is those things for them. And they should be honored to have him on the sidelines doing it because the pedigree is that he's telling you. Not me, Samson, before this game was played, he said that the University of Miami has never had a player like Malachi Tony. He said it as a guy who came from Broward County, a guy, you know, Santana Moss is the closest thing. A Miami guy, Miami legend, but Santana Moss wasn't this. He wasn't 12 catches for 230 yards when everyone knows that's the guy you got to stop. Right. Where do you see the six pack tonight? Picture over on the right there. You will see when the shirt comes up when it reignites. And I'm going to do something to you here that I'm sorry to do it because people are watching look, you missed it because you were looking at me. OK, you don't get a six pack like that. Matter of penalty, two minutes, still. It's a show. What are you doing? You don't know when that six pack like that.
Out. He does. No, it's it. He does. You think that that steroids. That's what you're accusing him of. You don't get a six pack for jeans. Out. Minor penalty, two minutes. Dumpster juice takes. That's four minutes for you. You put the show on pause. Wow. You made us look at a stomach that's been on the screen for 40 minutes. And then you're telling us that he's Ricardo Montobon in what is Star Trek where he's got a prosthetic chest. Go ahead and find that for me, guys. Fine. Right. Right. A still please of Ricardo Montobon as con in Star Trek so that people can see what it is that David Samson is accusing Michael Irvin of. Dan, you said Malakitoni best homegrown guy. Are you going to put that up and let's let's bring your high school days back? Andre Johnson better homegrown guy or Malakitoni? Andre Johnson was different, right? Andre Johnson, obviously a complete NFL wide receiver. But Andre Johnson was not somebody that you thought was going to be the Tyree kill type
of power cable. He's a big guy and he is also a big play receiver. But it's not any play that you throw to Andre Johnson for yards out could go 70. Like it's just not I've not seen there. There was Kevin Williams was a player like this in terms of stature size, quickness. I would have thought at most times in my life before Tyree kill that someone like Malakitoni wasn't big enough to play in the pros. That's usually it's usually not quite elusive enough at that size to be able to be 17 years old and running around on a college field in a way that's unstoppable is a syni. But Andre Johnson did beat court and finance. My God, that was awesome. Yeah, I mean, but Andre Johnson, Ken Dorsey, Vinnie, Tester Verdi to Michael Irvin, it I believe that the games are going to look like this all the time that he's going to be like a number
one in the NFL, the stats that you're used to seeing from a number one in the NFL where the offense is going to be so good against again. I'm going to keep saying this really weak competition. In the first five games on the schedule, Tony, please just name the first five opponents. And at Florida and M Wake Forest Central Michigan Clemson and then you got Florida State on 10-7. Dan Lebatar. I've never stepped foot on that campus. If you told me right now, you'd like to depends on it. Go to Santa Fe University and just just take a picture. Jenna D'Ansacelo. I would die. I don't know where it is. This is the Dan Lebatar show. I'll be in serious when I say it in the scene. All right. Right now, the line on the Miami Clemson and the Kings are favored by seven. How am I not putting a million dollars on that right now? Somebody getting hurt before that?
Mensa getting hurt before that? But that's a joke, right Dan? I mean, Clemson did not look like it belonged on a field with LSU when I'm going to say that LSU and Miami are probably pretty close to Comps on athletes. And this part, I don't think people were paying attention to because Duke, while at one the ACC last year, lost five times. Mensa was excellent for them last year without these players, without this offensive line, without these skill guys. Mensa was great last year. Not good. Great. This quarterback, I'm going to keep saying it, is better than Carson Beck. I can say it after one game. I don't think a whole lot of people listening to me would dispute it. Like not if you were watching Duke it all last year. But David is back after his dumpster juice take. You want to look at his stomach again because I want to be clear on what you're alleging as they continue to look for Ricardo Montobon and his prosthetic chest in Star Trek because
I need to see. I'm pretty sure Ricardo Montobon was probably about the age Michael Irvin is now when he was con in Star Trek and it was just simply a prosthetic muscle suit. What are you alleging make it clear on Michael Irvin because I believe that's natural. I've never seen someone have a body like that from simply sit ups ever. Well, it's not simply sit ups. It's also a Hall of Fame football career. It's not simply sit ups. I've seen a lot of athletes without their clothes on. Michael Irvin. I will tell you that. For whatever the criticism is, let me tell you two Michael Irvin stories real quick. I'm not in beauty image. It's just not natural. You are imputing him when you say it's not natural. I don't say when you say no one gets that just from sit ups. So no one who has a six pack is doing it naturally. No. What's not one person? No one. No one. No one. No one. Go ahead Dan. Define supplements.
So Dave start with creatine. Okay, but that's not that's not the wrong with that. Creatine's okay. Creatine is not your brain makes creatine. You're fine. That doesn't count as a supplement to you. No. No, you're shit. It's like steroids. Tony creatine is a supplement. It is a supplement. The body does produce it, but you can also you and do use creatine in order to get more muscular. But you're accusing him. You're accusing Michael Irvin of steroid use. I'm telling no. You said steroids. I said it's not natural. That's all I said. You can move on. Those are sitting and stopping the show. We are in the mud. Those are cinnamon. Do you think Michael Irvin is using anabolic steroids? I have no idea if he's putting a needle in his ass. I just so you don't get a six pack from doing sit ups. Move on Dan. Your personal was creatine. I don't want to move on because what you just did is it worked out a lot. You work out a lot. Do you have a six pack? I saw you work in a whole day. I don't have one pack and I run all the time. I have a zero pack. Okay, so you're the example. You're comparing yourself to a full great shape.
Hall of Fame. I don't dispute that. You're comparing. You're sharing. You eat jelly beans all day. That's true. But even the people who eat the best food in the world don't get a six pack. You still not tasting anything? Half and half. 20% is what the doctor said. I've gotten a little bit back. Oh, 20% better. How does a doctor know? No, because we have the doctor know. They do tests. Yeah, you're about 20% of them. That's it. I mean, it's like saying clogging of the arteries. That's it. Is it certain foods? I'm still not discerning licorice for cinnamon. That's the real bell weather. Oh, no packs to hand. Good contribution, Roy. Yo, chicken dog. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, she can't take licorice. There was one. Put it in her belly. What does that mean? That means that the little guy got a doctor taste. And his more of a dentist's little. I can't take three. He's a damn deep tooth. What the fuck? You're gonna take a bite. Are you kidding me? I'm not a big eater. There's a big bungalow. I'm gonna give you a big bite. You're gonna give me a big bite. I'm gonna give you a big bite. I'm gonna give you a big bite. You're gonna give me a big bite. I'm gonna give you a big bite. Roy, you want to get in there with a, huh, as a chicken?
Two Michael Irvin stories. But before I get to, let's just play the Spanish call of one of the Malacai Tony touchdowns because I believe that everyone's going to be hyperventilating all season about this guy. It's down Miami. What a fast run in the cars, the cars of Miami. M with M Malacai. It's a great call. I wonder what he said. Tony doesn't like the call. It's high. Great. Sorry. It's fine. The two Michael Irvin stories, one of them, okay, is because a lot of people would look at him and say that Michael Irvin was undisciplined because he had issues with the police and drug use, etc. And he's like, no, what discipline is isn't the way that you think of it.
Discipline is your dog tired because it's the fourth quarter and it's the orange bowl and it's really hot and you don't have anything left in your body because you're just totally spent. Discipline is the hard count comes when your, your mind has just fried. You're tired and you have the discipline to not jump on the hard count because your mind is strong and ready for the size of that moment. This Super Bowl champion used to when he was playing for the Dallas Cowboys know that his workout was done when he had thrown up for the second time during a workout, not for the first time. That's when he would stop the workout. That means been exercising like that for 40 years. I'm unsurprised that he looks like that. The surprise is that you've accused him of if not steroid use being unnatural when he's looked like that. The entire life that I've known him all 40 years, that's what he's looked like. So he was using steroids from George Myra, Jr. Well, no, I was in a locker room with him with the Cowboys. I was in a locker room with him with him. How many other players had that when you were in a locker room?
Not a ton, not a ton like that. Not a lot like that. Like it's not all of them. But yes, an NFL locker room is filled with a decent amount of that, like a lot of six packs. Not more than baseball. I understand that you've been in baseball. That's the issue. He's looking at guys are like Bartola Colone, you're like, yeah, what are we doing here? That's a lot of Michael Irvings of lineman, defensive lineman. You'd be surprised. Yeah, I'm an offensive lineman with defensive lineman or stack. Guys, go ahead and just get Miles Garrett and Micah Parsons for Aaron's honor. For Samson. Like there are a lot, they're in very good shape. I think it goes without saying. Regardless, it's taken me too long to get here. How did Chris Cody and Roy ruin what Chris Cody is saying is the Shiva and not the funeral? Well, I'll bring it back to just a place that I only want to go back to for purposes of this story and anything therapy related. But we're have Shiva, which is what you do when after a funeral. You go back to the home and you're with the mourners and there's some food and there's some conversation.
And then you take a break and then you have another round of Shiva. But during the break, it's nap time. It's sleep time. There's no guests. We're in the middle of all sleeping and all of a sudden we hear a knock on the door. And it could have been an Amazon guy, strangely not knowing there's something going on. And then it turns out to be Chris Cody, who shows up at Shiva. He had the wrong time. He came when nobody else was there. There was one car there and he sees that there's no cars there. And instead of looking at an Uber, he thought everyone Uber. I thought it was early. I thought maybe you don't ever want to be first to Shiva. That's rule number one. You got to then cap your conversation book. Right, if you're first to him, you have to talk to all the mourners. It is very emotional. But the one thing you really don't want to do is be early. And I thought that was ridiculous. But I love Chris for coming. It's an effort. How early was he and how many mourners are sleeping that he's waking up with a knock on the door?
He was hours early and... I believe it was 2.30 and it started at 6. Yes. So just... Now, I look at this as above and beyond. Who went the... Did many go twice? Because I went to Shiva twice. It was amazing. And I understand there was not as much traffic as you may have thought. The guy... That definitely changed it. Did you think you were on the wrong house, Chris? Now, all right. I'm not going to point fingers, but this was Zaz's fault. Zaz was leading us. Said that. The days leading up to this. Zaz was like, all right, guys. I know how Shiva works. I'll tell you everything. Okay, it's all day. You bring the blow, but you can bring one, not the brand. And Zaz said it was all day. You know, I guess I should have checked with you. So I'm blaming Zaz there. Did you not say it was all day? I don't remember. And Zaz, you said bring food. You don't bring food to Shiva. Really? I thought everyone was bringing food. No, you bring like a dessert. No, you don't. What do you mean? I brought food. Of course you do. Well, this is how you ruined the show. Roy walks in. What? Roy walks in. And it was so good to see Roy and you brought... I mean, it's just... I love you. And you have to understand that this is not show.
I appreciate it. You have no idea. But you walked in with the platter of food. And we put the platter on the main table because we wanted to be nice and try to get your food to be gotten to be eaten. But the food that you brought was non-Jewish food. Well, yeah, that's yeah. What? Yes. What do you mean you? You should have said that. No, no, I did say someone asked you know does it have to be kosher. I'm like, I don't know if David's house keeps kosher or not. So I don't know. What kind of answer is that? What kind of answer is that? Is that? Wait a minute. Is Roy getting framed for food that Chris Cody bought? Is it pastelitos that were the criminal item? Pastelitos? Is it the pastelitos? Yes. I did. I did buy it, possibly. I bought this at a Jewish market. Wait, what did you bring? It was... It was Jewish food that I brought. And it got a Jewish market doesn't matter what he brought. Who brought the Cuban fruit? Chris Cody did. Oh my God, Roy. Chris Cody did. Roy. Chris Cody, you just framed the black guy. You can't bring pastelitos to a shiver.
Come on. Since when? Alright, that was me too. I don't know what sh- I don't know shivas. I don't know shivas. I don't know shivas. I got there to- He said it was you. What? When everyone was at the shiver, you were all standing in the corner and I said, Who brought the fried pork? There wasn't fried pork. Hold on, you brought- You brought it in for me? Okay, that's- Oh, don't go wild. I brought the whole spread of Cuban pastels. You also bring a tray of bacon? I brought the pack that had like all Cuban pastry things. Were you in the back? It's three of shivas. I spinning a pig. I figured everyone would be bringing similar stuff so I was like, I'll keep it, you know, from Miami. Hold on, Chris. Chris, wait a second. Answer me this question. Did you bring croquetas? Oh, I went to Vickies and I just grabbed one of those- The hard-to-take croquetas. We did a cajotrino. I did the whole tray- How big would a ham you brought? It would never happen. Look, I got mocked when I got there. I was let know- I was told right away that I'm an idiot. Okay, I don't know what you guys want from me here.
I tried to do the nice thing. I tried to get something. I've never been to a show before. So hold on. So if you would have- Dave, if you would have just done the cheese pastries, the guava pastries, and maybe the meat pastries, we would have been fine. No, no, you mixed it up. You can't have the meat. No, there's no meat in the cheese. They're both separated. Yeah, but you can't eat them together. But- What if you put them at different sides of the table? Doesn't matter. You know what I did? I made David smile on a tough day. So you're welcome for that. Let me be super offensive to Jewish people. See if you get to smile out of that. I- The love I felt just to be serious for one second, gentlemen. The love I felt from everyone at Metal Arc everyone was out of this world. So thank you. I walked in so proud with that tray. You have seen that. You woke the mourners. The sleepy tyrant. You woke the sleepy tyrant mourners. And then you blasphemed on their religion by trying to give them a pork poison. Wake up. I'm here with all your pork. I'm here early. Malakai Sekusuna.
