The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

That's exactly what my thought process is.

When you're nine years old.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

It is a cartoon.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Correct.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

The scale of it is going to blow them away, and I also think that it might break them, sort of like the parent who, like, oh, you're smoking a cigar?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Now go sit in the closet and smoke the entire box of cigars and break that.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

I feel like them seeing it at this impressionable age maybe will make them ultimately sort of like, yeah, I don't need to see it as a grown-up.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Okay, maybe that is what I'm doing.

Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

And then I will, you know, 10 years, 20 years from now, I'll look back and say, you know, 2020 hindsight, I'm a terrible parent.

But in the meantime, off we go soon enough.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Let's kibitz about sports right now.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

And I mentioned Gino Auriemma and Danny Hurley.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

I mean, I get that everybody loves to hate Duke, but this, to me, felt very much Alien versus Predator.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Whoever wins, we lose, because Danny Hurley is in the winner's circle now once again, and he's pretty loathsome.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

And I think that...

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Again, maybe veering into hyperbole, I think Danny Hurley has worked his way, yes, to one of the great coaches that we've seen, but also one of the more hateable figures in my sports lifetime.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

How say you, Amin?

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

Well, it's interesting to interrupt that point.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

The thing that I've said a number of times, at least where it applies to football, and I'm not sure if it carries over to basketball, but the idea of the rah-rah Newt Rockne kind of guy and then turning into this type A, you know, hard-o guy, that Bill Parcells figure, you know, basically a pigskin version of Bob Knight.

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Amin Elhassan: Why Will Ferrell Outranks Robert De Niro

That worked in the 20th century, but there's not much evidence of being that cat and it working this century.
