I'm going to be third prime time game for the Atlanta Falcons in three weeks. They are going to be at home against the Baltimore Ravens minus three is the line Atlanta is favorite. I'm going to take the Falcons in the advanced line here because we don't know if A. Lamar Jackson is going to play and B. How long he's going to be out for Snoop Huntly will be in his stead. I'm going to take that advanced line at minus three. Give me them dirty birds, Drew. Greg. What? The NFL is playing yet another game in London in week five and the Eagles are getting six and a half points against the Jaguars. That's a big line to give Philadelphia in a neutral game. Gimme Jalen Hertz and that one big time. We're going to get to Juju in a second. We're going to get to the polls in a second. I've got some sound though that I am fairly shocked by that we haven't done enough with and I want to remind you too that we have a Levitard Plus on a subscription basis. Nothing about the show changes. The show is still free. Every episode is still free, but we do have bonus content twice a week to start. We've got audio only exclusive to Apple podcasts, early access to Levitard and friends content and a bunch of perks coming soon. So if you want to sign up Levitard Plus, we've got a bunch of stuff coming your way. It's for the most loyal among you who want yet more of the stuff that we're making even though we're making just about more than anybody daily. This sound though, Andre Kuzmenko. This is somebody who plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins and I just can't believe some of this sound that we're about to play now. Tony, you and I have talked a little bit about how UFC has this sort of plague of wrestlers who come from places where things that happen in these places make them tougher and more rugged. They're making the sport less aesthetically pleasing, but they're just unbelievably jagged, hardened men. Listen to this story, okay? Kuzmenko is Russian and listen to this story that he's telling about his father's passing. Okay, I want to say because I respect your job and I understand this is hockey, it's a little bit media work and I've been honest in my life and I don't want the false about these things, I want to true, I want time to say about everything and this is my father able to permit fishing with friends and he's staying in the water and beers and behind him and the attack and my father in the water, in the water fight is beers in one hour and minutes and he is still still alive and after two days in the big shock and this is permit fishing, everything is rude and I want to true and what's happiness. He is saying that his father died in a bear attack and he wanted people to know how valiantly his father fought against an actual bear. It's incredible the way that he's telling that story, it's obviously very, very sad but he's trying to, I think when he says I want everyone, it's true, I think he's trying to let everyone know that his father died in a very brave way. He tried, like he put up a great fight against this bear that attacked him and it was for over an hour and even lived for another couple of days before he succumbed to his injuries but you could just tell he's, I mean obviously sad but he's trying to, trying to let everyone know that he's proud of his father. Like everything we've heard from Ron is like the bears will go and you try to play dead right they'll sniff you around and be like all right this is kind of over for that bear to keep going after him for him to continue to defend himself with probably whatever he had fist rocks, whatever, like that's insane. That was remarkable composure by that player. I'm curious the timeline did his father just die recently or is he recalling something that was a while ago? It was like last week baby. That's crazy that he could tell it like that without breaking apart. It's a, it's a tough thing to do under any circumstances and your second language trying to make your way through that is pretty hard. So condolences and sincere condolences just seems like an awful story. Also, a pretty terrible way to lead into Juju who wants to do Joe. Thank you. You're welcome. Dead fish. Right in my damn lap. Hey guys. Joker of the week he wants to do post show awards I'm sure that let's start with some rule changes. Something light here. Do you have any amendments here Juju that you would like to make since we're always changing the rules of sports around here to fit around our conveniences. Yes, sir, man. Straight out the dome. My brother landed it right on like right in the straight zone. Go post lasers. Y'all. This is the answer. Shoot him straight to Saturn. If the ball even touches the laser, it's good, which now comes with the new rule. Ball doinks. That's more points. You dig it. It shouldn't be that. That hard. More points, more points, more points, that's a good old point on the pole at Levitard show. If a field gold kicker doinks the kick should it be worth more than we're just up inside post, right? Anything. No, no, no, no, not for that front. That's not the front should be even more than that up right solely. I think uprights four points, uprights four points and then crossbar three to crossbar three and a half. That's the best sound in football. Covered. The doing. What if it's the extension? I get back to you. Don't you guys love the idea of you, you're down by four late, you're 50 yards away, instead of a Hail Mary, your kicker has to try and hit the goal post. I think I prefer Hail Mary. Yeah, let's take away Hail Mary's for maybe the guy hits the goal post. I like. Add a strategy. Go ahead. Another rule, baseball, I'm looking at you if a player hits the ball and it hits the roof in bounds, not file territory, that's a damn home run, man. Even if it's a pop up, you're going to be hit it straight straight to the catcher. I like it. Even if it's straight up, it doesn't even have to be in the outfield. How bad do you feel if your friends in that situation where you've hit a ball hard enough to be a home run? It happened. It's Spencer Jones too. So both of them hit it sky high. If you look at stat cast, both would have been just flyouts, but when you hit the ball that hard and that high in the air, it feels like it's going to be a home run. That we've had it happen twice. I can't wait for the World Series where you have Milwaukee and Tampa and it just happens every single game no matter where they're playing because they don't, Tampa doesn't play in a real ballpark. That's crazy. It feels like a fist. What do you have? Do you have any other rule changes that you'd like to submit, Jude? Yeah, this is the last one and this is a rule amendment, defensive backs and safeties. If they call a pass interference on you and you sitting here doing all this and the replays show you grabbing the damn Jersey, 10 more yards, breath for lion, get out of my face man. Stop. They all do that too. I always believe them. I always believe them when they start combining and then they play the replay and it's always obvious. It's every single time they're grabbing on a jersey. Those are all good rule changes. What do we have in terms of Joker of the week, Jude? Do you have any jokers? Yes, sir, man, fever, GM, amber, cocks, took to the stand, the podium is said, the attacks on our fan base have no bases in reality and they need to stop. The same press conference five, 10 minutes later, Kelsey Mitchell got up there and says, man, it's so hard to play for a fan base who you can already tell does not like you. Man, amber, cocks, you, man, I'm the Joker of the week for trying to pull the wool over America's eyes, acting like we don't see what's going on in the anime. Come on. You got to do a better job coordinating the messages there. Mm-hm. It's a gackie, man. It's rough. Imagine being Kelsey. That's why I always salute Kelsey Mitchell because all throughout the year, of course you want to stand up and be like, I don't agree with Sophie. Oh, I don't think it's about this. I'm a black woman and y'all saying this and since they quiet and she played basketball and when the season was over, she let her voice be heard and I'm in the end of fever fans, jumped at her mentions and said, shut up and dribble you. We don't hate you. Be word. We're going to get to the polls in a second, but let's see. Does anyone award worthy on the show today is juju willing to be generous enough to give out some awards today? Yes, sir. Absolutely, man. My brother, I'm giving a bravery award to my brother Chris Cody, man. He stood in that fire and stayed in that fire. His list might not have been worth a damn, but he was brave for putting them out there. Not a coward. Ricky Davis as a better, I thought he was talking about my trivia game segment, really brought it there too. Your game show. of oldest players according to a list you looked up in 2015. - No, I looked it up this year. It was made in 2015. - Yeah, yeah. - So last award, to keep it a hunt on award, man. Go to my brother, Dan Levittar, man. - You saw what I saw today. We say, LeBron, you're an idiot for flying from failure to New York. What a douche nozzle. Wayne Hasingle says some racist things. - That's okay, guys, let's move on. - For the record, I said. Hezenga did not say some racist things. They just happened to know that he didn't like how brown Miami was. - But displayed the behavior of a racist. - I know. Either way, Tyler Hero, we don't like the discourse around Tyler Hero. We shouldn't boo with him. Booing him would be a shame. But we don't remember Tyler did this to himself. He remember he had Twitter fingers this summer. And the captain of your team decided to put pause on Tyler for what he said. That's why he gonna get his ass booed. Saloo, you did it. - So it's both Juju and Zaz believe that Tyler Hero is gonna get booed because of how uncharacteristic it is that Bambam was. - I think he should. That's my point. I think he should. If we gonna say, hey, Jalen Brown, you're an asshole for saying something during the offseason, we have to keep the same energy. Tyler Hero, you sir also are an asshole. And we're gonna boo you as well. - I bet you get 75, 25 cheers. - I think 60, 40. - 75, 25 cheers, but there's gonna be booze. But I don't think it's not gonna be all cheers. But there's gonna be some booze, not all booze. - Not all be mostly booze. - I don't really go on out there on that limb Jeremy. - Yep. - It depends on the build up of the game, right? I mean, if Bamb brings it up, if it becomes news again. - If Bamb says, maybe. - Everyone boo. - That Levitard show is how you vote on the polls. - I really don't want to do the show of Will Tyler Hero be booed months from that. - 75, 25, 25. - We did the two of them. - A percentage, what pie chart. Where are you out on the pie chart right now? - I don't, 60, 40. I don't wanna do that show. I'm not. - 78, 22. - At Levitard show. - 70, 30 boo. - We'll see who's right. - Everybody's gonna be me. - I'm always sure. - Yeah, we'll have someone measure. - But he's doing 49. - Let's do the polls from yesterday as well. Juju, if there are any leftover from yesterday, if you have any. - Let's update the polls. - Yes, sir. Was Josh Allen throwing the ball forward while throwing it backwards, throwing it backwards while throwing it forward? 66% of the audience says yes. - So right now it's time to do that. - It's totally accurate. - Is Jack Strand a good name for a superhero? 67% of the audience says no it is not. - And last poll is a walk indeed as good as a hit. 69% of the audience says yes and those are your poll. - Right now it's time to do that. - Bye bye.
