The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

Hour 1: Do The NBA's Ratings Matter?

20 Feb 2025

Transcription

What is the 'Hard Network Out' and why is it significant?

90.484 - 97.71 Stugotz

We take you back to a better time in the show's history, a time, at least for me, where I was happiest, because we were at ESPN.

103.507 - 114.813 Dan Le Batard

You're the old white guy columnist who always castigates the athlete for misbehaving and for urinating on sportsmanship.

What side are you on in this? Well, I want to make two points. Number one... I mean, back in my day, I used to build forts. You know, Fortnite was nothing you stared at. It's something you built with your hands, like Man 101. Please explain the hard network out. Well, I've missed so many of them. Apparently, I don't know what a Hard Network Out is.

For some reason, the listeners seem to enjoy it when I miss a Hard Network Out. They all enjoy it. But it doesn't happen intentionally.

Hard Network Out was born out of necessity.

165.813 - 180.404 Advertisement Narrator

We had to adhere to network clocks. Oh Gott, Greg ist einfach überrascht von allem, was in diesem Studio passiert ist. Dan und ich haben es am Anfang bemerkt.

191.232 - 207.677 Stugotz

By the way, I will say this. Greg has been a breath of fresh air for our show. The audience loves him. The staff loves him. I love him. But he has no clue what the hell is happening and what we're doing every single Tuesday that he comes in. And so we noticed it. We thought it'd be funny to try to cut him off at a hard network out.

207.717 - 219.78 Stugotz

We were still at ESPN, so we had to be out by a certain time at the end of every hour. And we figured Greg eventually would catch on to the fact that we're asking him questions at the end of every hour with about four seconds to go on the clock.

220.08 - 230.803 Tony

I made the imaging. I took a gold horn that the New York Islanders had in 1996 and then I spliced it together with Papi.
