Now's a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Cuervo. What are you doing here? Cuervo. Anytime someone says Cuervo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during an ad reads like... Cuervo. I think he could lay out, especially for one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious Cuervo. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion. Cuervo. So, enjoy the tequila that started it all. Cuervo. Cuervo.
Cuervo. The tequila. That invented tequila. Proximo. Cuervo.com. Please drink responsibly. Cuervo.
Reale was just telling us what he's doing later this afternoon, about 5 o'clock tonight around the horn time. And when he was telling us what he was doing, Stugatz was saying, you were a handsome devil back then. Because Reale is going back to watch one of his first shows or his first show? My first show hosting around the horn, which was after Super Bowl 38. It was the Janet Jackson half.
And what I was saying is, Tony is smoking hot right now.
I can't imagine what a younger Tony Reale looked like. He called you a handsome devil when you were younger. But why are you going to do this with Izzy Gutierrez? Yes. Where are you doing it? Where are you doing it? Where? YouTube Live, my friend. Okay, but on YouTube. You were kind enough to set that up once before. It worked out pretty great. I'd love to have anybody in the universe who has been reaching out over the last couple months. I've tried to respond to as many as I could. We're into the hundreds and not thousands, but we're...
I know. I'm going to get to you all. I'm going to get to you all at some point, but maybe come on the YouTube Live and...
We'll watch a show and we'll watch a man look at himself in a younger age. It's like a scrapbook with Tony Reale, 23 years, about 5 o'clock today. Tony, I know you've got to go get ready. So good seeing you. And he'll be here all week trying to ruin the proceedings. Good job today, Tony. Yes, the failed bits are better around here than the bits that work. We're going to get to Juju and against the spread in a second. But, Roy, the...
The Big Mac thing that we did today that did not work because we've been trying to get Big Mac off the ground for about three months now. Chris Cody has been working. Billy, what can you tell me about this project? Yes. What can you tell me about the Chris Cody project that has Big Mac's takes
from the underground garage being something that takes off here nationally and internationally. I think that he took off today because he was working on that. He was up against a deadline. He was crossing the T's, dotting the I's, finishing it up. He's been crafting some things that he doesn't think are ready. So he sent me a couple of items for my perusal that he wasn't quite thought. He had to go back like seven times to Big Mac. Big Mac's Take of the Day.
Chris Greer, well, hey, he don't have a clue. He's been here about 15 years, and he's doing the same thing, picking injured players, short players. I don't have nothing against short players, but you need to get big guys like Janu, and we need to have an offensive line. We've needed an offensive line for 20 years. And he's always smiling. And the first thing I noticed the draft, when this player called,
and said, hey, how you feel about being picked? He said, why are you laughing? Chris Greer, you laugh. Why you joke this is his best time? And you asking him, why is he laughing? This is the best time of his life and you ask him why he laughing? You don't have nothing else to say. That's what's his problem. Big Mac's Take of the Day.
He's been working on it for months. Had to take a day off today because it wasn't ready. Heard that. Yeah. Let's hear it. He tried it twice. Let's see what he has for us on the Dolphins schedule. Big Max. Take of the day. The imaging is good. Fantastic.
I tell you what, it's a sorry schedule I see, but they got Pittsburgh, they got Cincinnati, they got the Ravens. A couple primetimes. They got Tampa, yeah. They got two thirds in that game. So I'm hoping, but this Tua guy, you heard what happened to his brother. Yeah. Got cut from the CFL. Yeah. And he didn't get drafted last year. You know, at nine we got to deal with Tua, but I like that Zach Wilson guy.
He was thinking sorry. A little backup. Yeah. I think he's going to be starting pretty soon. Really? Yeah, I really think he's going to start. I like his arm. He's got a big arm. Yeah, he do. What about the other quarterback? Which one? The new one. Quentin. Quentin. Oh. That guy from Texas. All right. Later, man. Good to see you. Later. All right.
Big Macs, take of the day. This isn't working. I don't think this is going to get off the ground. The imaging is working. I mean, so credit to Chris. He protected you from this. So, yeah, it's a good thing he did. Reali is an effervescent source of enthusiasm and positivity, but so too is Juju. Juju, what is the fan commentary and social media reaction to whatever it is that we did today?
uh, Gonzalez with an S says nothing has put a smile on my face in quite a while. Like seeing Tony reality on the libertar show, exploring coffee shops. We need to do this more often. He's very good at man on the street stuff. Uh, anybody who wants him, he's exceptional at being friendly with people and annoying us with his small talk four minutes in, uh,
But Riali has been embraced because he's going to be here all week. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. The fans are loving him. And he got dunked on. They want to see the dunked on video, so they'll be able to tune in whenever they see our two posts from the live show when it all went to putts. Yes. Thank you, Juju. Before we get to the rest of what Juju has to say, let's do Against the Spread. ♪♪
All right, it's time for Against the Spread. It's presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Billy, go ahead and start. Oh, okay. I'm going to take Juju's Phillies minus one and a half against the Marlins tonight. Mick Abel is on the bump against Sandy Alcantara. I know what you're thinking. Sandy, he's a former Cy Young award winner, right?
Yeah, and he's been looking better in June. Back-to-back quality starts. Only two earned runs so far this month. QSs. A couple of good QSs. Yeah, back-to-back QSs. But Mick Abel, wow. 1.69 ERA on the road. 2.35 ERA overall this season in three starts. Phillies have won four straights. Marlins are coming hot off of a sweep of the Nationals this weekend. But...
I think the Phillies are going to get it done. Minus one and a half tonight against the Marlins. Against the spread. Mike, go ahead. I'm taking Flamengo minus one and a half tonight in the Club World Cup. They're going up against a Tunisian team, Esperance. Flamengo's got a lot of stars, a lot of names that even casual soccer fans know. Alexandro, Jorginho. This is a really talented team. Bruno Henrique.
And it seems from the early going, the only teams taking this competition uber seriously are the Brazilian ones. So far playing very well in this tournament and the fan support has been outstanding. I think Flamengo is really good. Have certainly a really good chance to make it to the knockout stages, perhaps a deeper run in the quarters. I like Flamengo minus one and a half again. Yeah.
Zaslow, go ahead. Yeah, I got one tonight. I'm going over 50 points, rebounds, and assists for Shea Giltis Alexander. So it's locked in. The bet is locked in. Two tickets to game six or this. Not three tickets, Billy. Two tickets. Two tickets. Two tickets plus another one. That is incorrect. Hold on a second, Zas. How about if we get two nice tickets, then we resell them?
on the game time. And then we buy three tickets. He doesn't want bad seats. Two upper deckies. Juju, I want to play some sound for you. What do you make of Gino Ariema? No one is doing what Gino Ariema just did to Caitlin Clark. I have heard the accusation that shade has been thrown at Caitlin Clark from one of the most majestic voices in the history of women's basketball. Gino Ariema has some shade for Caitlin Clark that I had not heard anywhere.
The delusional fan base that follows her disrespected the WNBA players'
by saying she's going to go in that league and tear it apart. These people are so disrespectful and so unknowledgeable and so stupid. And Diana said it best. This kid's in for a rude awakening. This kid's on the wrong team. She's got the wrong skill set to handle the physicality of that league. This rookie class isn't even one of the best rookie classes in the last 10 years. She's just not built for the physicality of this league. And she's not quick enough to get away from the physicality.
When was that? It's a terrible take. When did he say that? It can't be recently.
Right, because Kaylin Clark returns with 32 points, 8th and 9th, while hitting seven threes. And they beat the number one team in the league, the unbeaten New York Liberty, upon her return. Geno, sir, you may be the joker of the day with that take, because I do not agree. That has to be an old clip. Of course. I mean, clearly. I mean, it must be super embarrassing to be that wrong about an individual player and their performance.
I mean, she has several WNBA records. I feel that guy is an idiot. There was no reason for that there.
If she didn't get hurt this year, she would definitely be in the top two running right now for the league MVP. I think Nafisa Kalyer is going to take it because of that and just her overall greatness. But she's a top MVP candidate in year two. So, yeah, he's definitely wrong on that. She definitely took the league by storm, set a WNBA record for points in a season, has the WNBA record for assists in a game, was rookie of the year. Yeah, she entered that league and dominated it. But we know nothing.
So not a rude awakening for Caitlin Clark then. There was no rude awakening. There was no awakening of any kind. Are there any other kind of awakenings other than rude ones? No. Spiritual. Thank you. Maybe. No to maybe. Quick. Way to go, Mike. You got to move off of his position that he cared a great deal about right before that. Any other WNBA thoughts from the weekend, Juju?
Yes, Angel Reese recorded her first triple-double this weekend in the Connecticut versus Connecticut. She had 11 points, 11 assists, and 13 rebounds. So congratulations to Angel Reese. She gets a lot of flack for not being as good or the quiet comparative thing like Larry Bird versus Magic Johnson to Kaitlyn Clark. I think that does her a
a disservice because she's just great on her own accord. So salute to Angel. Juju, I don't know if we have enough time to go through the polls. I put myself on an island today and I'm very curious the results of one poll regarding OJ Simpson. Do you have some poll results for us? We're going to get to the polls in a second, Michael. We're going to get to slow down. It was a very vulnerable We'll get to it in a second. Very vulnerable, but
We've got to talk about Michael Beasley and the big three drama. We got to talk about Dwight Howard. We haven't talked about the U S open. We've left a lot of meat on the bone today. Yeah. I mean, a lot of big three drama. It's like they told him, yo, we need to spice this big three up. Dwight Howard was about to fight Lance Stevenson. Jordan Crawford put his finger up Lance Stevenson's nose. My brother, Steven Jackson had a couple of choice words with one of the players. It was like the Royal rumble out there this weekend. Welcome back. Big three. It is fun. Uh,
I believe if I know Juju at all, Roy, I don't believe that you have pleased Juju today with your attitude where you get to experience some of the most majestic things in sports, but you complain about the flights. Oh, don't put me on that, Alan. It's a happy tire, Dan. Okay, it's a happy tire, but Juju, I just know Juju well enough to know that he, like, the absence of gratitude for the things that we get to experience around here in sports is something that he usually takes inventory of.
Yes, and a lot of the YouTube chat as well. We are so blessed to be able to call this our job. And some of us get to travel to go to these epic games that people only dream of going to. So when you complain about it, sometimes it doesn't go over as well with the fans as you think it does. Even though you may be tired, I think you should remember that. So a lot of fans out here on the Fort Lift, on the tractor trailer right now, listening to our show, wishing that they can go to... Zaslow's saying he doesn't want to go to
game seven doesn't even want to win that bet why do i have to want to go to another country when i go watch from the zaslo mansion family room i don't know that's understandable that's a lot of i've been watching all of these games as well i don't see how y'all do it all year my heart is about to explode out of my chest every single time down the ice i'm thinking oh no here comes mcdavid again oh thank god dry side oh it's like so nerve-wracking so i understand you're not one that goes as
What about the guy in the tractor trailer? Does he have to fly from Edmonton? What's going on here? That's a fair question. I mean, if you fly from – I see if you had to walk from Edmonton or maybe bike from Edmonton. You sat on a plane. Three of them. You got in a car. Yeah, you sat on three planes. It's not necessarily hard work is what I'm saying. You're not doing brain surgeries to and fro if you –
catch my drift. So, you know what I mean? Let's celebrate yourself. Good job, 16 hours. Okay. He's not going to take your advice. Juju. He doesn't want any of your positivity. He wants to be tired. Go ahead and update Mike's poll question so that he can stop being grumpy. Also happy men's mental health awareness month as well. Let's get straight to the poll, the polling question. Do you miss OJ Simpson's Twitter contributions? Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
53% of the audience says yes, they do. All right. Congratulations, Mike. Yes. Hello, Twitter world. George Dooley. It's OJ Mahomes. I'm just saying. Did you know that there used to be a hockey team named the Vancouver Millionaires?
That's the last time. Original six. That is the last time. The Vancouver Millionaires is the last time that somebody has scored as many road goals as Brad Marchand has during an NHL playoff. It was new. I didn't even know there was ice back then. You're landing Oriyama slide. Terrible technique. 80-nav. It is a terrible technique. 80-nav.
89% of the audience says no, they did not know that. Do you think the style of play holds up from back then? Is Labor Day a big holiday? Zeslo already told you it's not, right? There should be no poll. Surely this poll is going to come back 57% no, right? Well, moving on. Does every party get made better by adding a bouncy house? This one was not today, I didn't think.
80% of the audience says yes, it does. Wow. That was her. Jess, it's a cesspool for litigation. That's what that is. Put it on the poll, Juju. That and the trampoline. Put it on the poll, yes, at Levitard Show. Are the trampoline and the bounce house cesspools for litigation? Also put, greater cesspool for litigation, the trampoline or the bounce house?
Do you love birthday cake flavored things? Everyone does, right? This has never happened before on the history of our show. Get out of here. 50% of the audience said yes. No. 50% of the audience said no. You are lying. Can you believe birthday cake flavoring is more polarizing than enjoying OJ Simpson on Twitter? Right. Last poll. When did we stop calling them toupees? No.
We've stopped, right? Their hair systems now. It's a piece. 60% of the audience says yes. And those are your posts. I am rooting so hard for Shea Gildress Alexander to have 49 points. Keep trapping him. Keep doubling him. 49 points, no assists, no rebounds. None of that zone shit tonight, Rick.
