Dan Reacts To Greg Cote's Miami Dolphins Apology | Local Hour

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz dives into a heated debate sparked by Miami Herald columnist Greg Cote's public apology for his initial overreaction to the Dolphins' 2026 NFL Draft pick. Cote admitted he was wrong to criticize the team for passing on local edge rusher Reuben Bain, choosing instead to draft offensive lineman Caden Proctor, but he did so only after a few days of reflection—prompting Dan to mock the timing and authenticity of the apology. The segment escalates into a broader discussion about media accountability, fan expectations, and the emotional investment in local players. Meanwhile, the hosts pivot to lighter topics, including Dan’s ongoing struggle with his uncomfortable leather couch, his desire for a deep, reclining sectional, and the absurdity of watching multiple games on a tablet in bed. The episode also features multiple sponsor reads for Chime (fee-free banking), BetterHelp (online therapy), Miller Lite (beer), and Jägermeister (liqueur), each tied to themes of comfort, connection, and authenticity in modern life.
