D of the Year. We present your host, Matthew Lewis Thomas.
Thank you, thank you very much, thank you. No people

standing ovation. Yea, thank you, thank you. No way you're
going to those Texas ball You can't be well. You
can't be hearing away to the Texas boil now, man,

(00:38):
they have a crown fish section six hundred. Excuse me,
so can you know what a crack is?

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Stop?

Speaker 2 (00:47):
I don't know. Rageing Kitson's winning this game now man.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Banner Bears are like, is there any sprite I've been?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
I've been Banner Bears, sprite zero please?

Speaker 1 (01:00):
I bet?

Speaker 2 (01:00):
I bet the Bantlebury's can drink a few beverages too.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Oh geez, someone's dancing. It's making me uncomfortable. Uh, those
girls have way too. Let's none have clothing on all right?
Can we get back to D of the Year. Let's
get my focus here, folks. I wanted to announce there's
Bible study in section one one at halftime.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
If you want to come why do is Mac brownslock?
He's being there? What well, we're having an absolute great
time at the Texas Bowl.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
All right, here we go. Nomine number one for wit.
Last year's winner was Amy Crunk's drunk. Okay, she won't
have my vote. She had my vote, she had America's vote.
Every year she does. She's an og as well. She's
in the Hall of Fame. Our first emine is this
year's non sports d of the Year. Okay, and it's

(01:49):
some douche name the block Spot on Twitter. Okay, the
funniest Ross Crassis does that work?

Speaker 2 (01:58):
Crassis.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Most crass, most crass, most successful roast ever in the
history of roast took place this year in twenty twenty four.
It was at the Fabulous Form in Lost Englewood, California.
It was too long, It was on Netflix. It made
a lot of money for anybody and everybody involved. It
was Wally Watch and I may have been two six
and a half hours long. I enjoyed every beneficacy number.

(02:22):
I love roast, but this D of the Year candidate,
The block Spot said on May sixth, twenty twenty four,
every racist loved the Brady Roast. Every homophobe loved the
Brady Roast. True, every misogynist loved the Brady Roast. Every
anti semit loved the Brady Roast. And then he goes

(02:44):
into all caps. This is a problem. Stop giving hateful
content a platform. Exclamation port, exclamation port, and there's like
four or five more exclamation points. You, Sam block of
at the block spot are nominee number one for d
of the of the year. Please have a little sense
of humor, I mean just a smidge. Do you know

(03:06):
what in America needs to do more in twenty twenty five?
ROSSI laugh? Hmm, wow that maybe you know what? But
does's put that on a fu shirt? Okay, we need
more laughing in twenty twenty five. It's the best emotion
out there. It's one of the best verbs. Thank you,
Matt all right. Number two, dis governing body introduced well,

(03:32):
it didn't introduce it just sat and watched this happen.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
And it's called name, image and likeness.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
And instead of rewarding kids for hard work done and
schools trying to take advantage of their abilities, this was
a way to pay these players money they should have
been probably paid for for many, many many years. Instead,
it's become an open recruiting tool. There is no legislation,

(04:00):
there's no regulation. It's running rampant throughout sports. You have
schools that are promising money that they can't promise. You
have donors who now are carrying bigger sticks because they
are the ones giving them money to these kids. And
there is absolutely zero oversight over something that could have
very easily helped the sport. So to the NC DOUBLEA

(04:23):
for literally turning a blind eye to the out of
control nature that is right now, name image and likeness,
the ncuble A.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
You are a nominee for D of the Year.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
D of the Year, are gonna disagree with this one?
A can't get involved? Why can't they because the Supreme
Court is going to strike them down for amateurism. They're
already pretty much striking them down. If they get involved
in their regulation, then they are four. They're basically admitting
that they're a for profit institution, which they can't do.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
They're not gonna do.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
But then then we've and we're gonna continue to have
this the rest of our life in college athletics.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I don't think it's I don't I think the end
game on this is disastrous.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
It hasn't come yet, but it's going to.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
You're gonna see more lawsuits by kids suing schools. You're
gonna have more people promising things they can't deliver on,
and it's gonna get uglier. And yes, we blame the
coach for lining to his players. Well, but that but
that isn't the case every single time. We're just talking
about one example. There were apparently Leonard Hamilton at Florida

(05:32):
State Live to the kids and seven we got the money.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
So let's blame Leonard Hamilton. Yeah, you're enough, big enough
for D of the Year, number three D of the Year.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Something is being watched more and more than ever in
professional baseball.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
That's the strike zone.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
We have websites, we have we have Twitter accounts, we
have instant replay, we have television networks, we have technology
that continues to see the evaporation of excellent ball, strike
calling by homepot umpires. Mistakes are happening more and more often.
Umpires are getting testier and testier, and it is ultimately

(06:16):
really causing a lot of problems for us that love
America's pastime.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
And I know that Major.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
League Baseball is going to experiment with the computer in
next year, which is a good sign.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Good, let's go, but full abs.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
But however, since we're talking about twenty twenty four, okay,
and how Major League Baseball continue to say everything is
going great major League Baseball and the disintegration of what
turned out to be a very worthwhile position. And it's
the homeplot umpire because calls are being missed in an
all time high.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Generally the numbers are getting better. I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
From when they started tracking, plans are getting a lot higher. Yeah, well, yeah,
we like to complain. I watch your twittercount. You can
play every night.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
That's not true. You do you know that's not true.
Played six ye's a week, that's not true. Six days
a week, not under I say.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Your continued blind eyed to the human air that is
becoming balls and strikes makes you a nominee to make
you the winner, but a nominee for D of the Year.
I like that D of the Year and last, but
certainly not least. We go to college station, we go

(07:27):
to Austin and we get the audio that we heard
this summer from Omaha and at that time A and
M head coach Jim's Los Nagel coach with respect of
the difficult outcome tonight. But with the rumors circulating today
about a specific job opening, what you have to say
about your future?

Speaker 3 (07:47):
And Aggi Land, I mean, I think it's pretty selfish
of you to ask me that question, to be honest
with you, but my I left my family to be
the coach at Texas A, and m to the job
at Texas A, and m to never take another job again,
and that hasn't changed in my mind. That's unfair to
talk about something like that. They'd be like you asking

(08:08):
Montgomery if he's gonna sign in the draft. But I
understand you got to ask the question. But I gave
up a big part of my life to come take
this job, and I've poured every ounce of my soul
in this job. And I've given this job every single
ounce I can.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Possibly give it.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
To write that, oh yeah, write that, I present to
you with complete prejudice. Now you know that, President, you're
a longhorn hater and a closet Aggie. No, I'm a
closet regular. I'm out front, decent human being. No, you
came out of the closets to sign Jim Slasnagel as

(08:44):
our fourth and final candidate.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
For D of the Year.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
D of the Year a worthy candidate based on that.
I mean that just that just wasn't right. It's pretty funny.
So if you'd like to vote, the Twitter polls will
be open here at the top of the hour if
you let to come in and any of them.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
If there's somebody else that we have missed on our
Day of the Year Canada, we've missed some people. Well,
that's why the floor is open.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Hit seven one three two one two five seven ninety
If we've missed somebody, let us know. Seven one three
two one two five seven eight could be you could
vote for D of the Year for Alabama fans that
are just bent that their team did not make.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
The college football playoff G of the Year.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
And basically made fun of SMU getting their ass kicked
by Penn State and made fun of Indiana losing their
ass to uh Notre Dame. And then and maybe Kirk
Herbstitt's getting some late run of the year. He's getting
some lateter on G of the Years seven one three
two one two five seven ninety seven one three two
one two five seven ninety ten, forty five.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
