/Sounds like "no dar pee-eh con bo" (as in "bowl") + "la" (as in "latte")/
To screw everything up, to not get a single thing right. This expression comes from soccer, describing someone who can't even kick the ball properly, and it is used for any situation where absolutely nothing is going your way. Whether it's a bad day at work, a disastrous exam, or fumbling through a conversation, "no dar pie con bola" means you are completely off your game. Common across Spain and Latin America.
"Hoy no doy pie con bola, todo me sale mal. -> I can't get anything right today, everything is going wrong."
"En el examen no di pie con bola. -> I totally bombed the exam."
