Yesterday on the show, we had a 100% innocent mistake that resulted in the worst and funniest poll question in our show's history. The number of things that have to be going on both locally and in the world for... Juju did not know who Hamas is, the Colombian soccer player, and put up a poll. It was very offensive. But it was so 100% innocent that it somehow is less offensive than, you know, Manny Fernandez's teammates calling him taco because he was Mexican. I can't believe that Cody is just sitting here.
They meant it lovingly. I knew something was off when 80% was no. I mean, really? You've never been to Miami. There are Hamas jerseys everywhere.
What major mistake did the crew make regarding Hamas?
I'm like, maybe they think it's a LeBron James. Maybe that's the thing. I look over, I see Hamas.
The number of things that have to be happening both in the studio, like what are the chances? We haven't talked about Hamas in 20 years doing this show. We haven't talked about the Colombian soccer player Hamas.
I mean, I can understand the mistake if you're not familiar with the Hamas Rodriguez.
I mean, Mike did say everyone should have a Hamas jersey. I did. I did. I was like, damn, how else would you spell this?
H-A-M-A-S does sound right.
That's clearly Hamas.
I don't think that anyone listening to this would read the word James and pronounce it Hamas. What it says on the back of his jersey, the first time I saw it, I'm like, why is there a Colombian guy running around out there named James? All these Brazilian players have just one name on their jersey. How's the Colombian guy named James?
His first name. It should be Rodriguez, right?
I'd like to formally ask the entire audience for your forgiveness. Out of bounds off my leg. Sorry about that, coach.
We're going to get to basketball from last night in a second, but just going back for a second. Damn, the 20% that said yes.
There we are. A little low.
Getting back to Manny Fernandez, he played as a defensive lineman at 6'2", 250 pounds, which tells you how much the game has changed. They're now 100 pounds heavier than that. But can you guys put up for me the picture of Manny Fernandez? Again, this facial hair look, is anyone rocking this? Because, I mean, I can see Stavi doing this, but is anyone else rocking this particular look of... Full beard except for the chin, which is bare. There's no one doing that, correct? That's not a look that anyone chooses with their facial hair to just shave their chin. Those are called mutton chops, right? But those mutton chops go into the mustache. I don't think of mutton chops connecting to the mustache, and I don't know why they're called mutton chops either.
I don't know the origins of the mutton chop, but those are untamed mutton chops because connecting to the mustache is not something I've seen very often.
Lemmy from Motorhead. Clouds. That's a good one.
His chin is so pristinely shaved, though, and the rest of what he's got going on there. Cody, did you say everything you wanted to say? Because we started making jokes at the end of that. And this is somebody who locally meant a lot to people for a lot of reasons, even though your son had never heard his name before you started uttering it after he passed away.
Well, he was one of the leaders of what was called the no-name defense. So by the very moniker, there weren't a lot of superstars on that defense. The stars were on offense, Paul Warfield, Larry Zonka. And Manny Fernandez had his best career games in the Super Bowl. So on the biggest stage, he rose to his highest level of play. And I don't know that they would have won the 72 and 73 Super Bowls unless he rose like that on defense. Maybe they would have, but maybe they wouldn't have. He was that good.
Yeah, that's what stood out to me is his stats in the Super Bowl. In the Super Bowl VII where they beat Washington, he had, as a defensive tackle, 17 tackles and a sack, which is crazy. Muttonchops were originally a style of facial hair popularly worn in England.
