You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. This is the Don Levertar Show with the Stugat Sputcast. We have a lot to get to you today. We had the heat last night opening up their season Tony Want me some money Lucy's quarterback is coming back. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing Have we determined where Lucy's going this weekend by the way? Yeah, what are the polls say? Is it final? It is final Well, I haven't checked it, but we already booked the flight so What I could change overnight wait a second

I thought the listeners were decided for you. They did the first listeners that voted decided. The first segment. The first batch. Hold on a second. I'm going to find the results and then we'll find out if you book to flight to the wrong place because if you did, you're going to have to rebook. We can't tell the audience that they can tell you where to go and then go somewhere else.

We'll get to Billy. He was on the call last night for go somewhere else. We'll get to Billy. He was on the call last night for FIU. We'll get to that as well. The heat had a 19 point lead with like seven minutes to go. It got down to one with about a minute to go. And then no one else scored. That was essentially the game last night. Last night was one of those ones.

It felt like a loss. If you listen to sports radio this morning, it felt like they lost. They barely won. Kyle Lowry played 30 minutes, took one shot over one. It's just, yeah, they won the game, but there seems to be some issues here going forward. I said it yesterday, Tony. I'd be interested in your opinion here. I don't think the heater could be very good. I just, they lost the off season in a way that Pat Riley has never lost the off season. It loses this off season the same way every off season.

When you're talking about I mean Billy they got you me butler they got LeBron they got Wade he's done some great things. Okay, the last yon is they've missed gory. But yon is was never okay. Yon is was never on the table to be guys if we're all please shut up. If we're gonna do win loss records. Respect respectfully if we're gonna do win loss records you can't do that for the heat in half seasons They've definitely won some billy you can take you can say that they might be close to 500

But to say that they lose more than they win is not true This one is they know they definitely lose more than they win they've won some but they definitely lose more than they win in off seasons I disagree well That's because every time they sign anyone you guys throw a parade like they signed Michael Jordan. Right. When they've done it once with LeBron James. I mean, in fairness, they did it twice, Jimmy Butler. Jimmy Butler's not Michael Jordan. We can stop right there.

He's not LeBron James. Okay, no one is Michael Jordan. I agree with you on that. He's okay. No, Jimmy Butler has been great for the heat. Jimmy Butler has kept the heat relevant. Right. But if you remember, we had Stan Van Gundion and I agreed with him where he said, if Jimmy

Butler's the best player on your team, your team's not very good. Jimmy Butler has been the best player on this team and gotten them to two NBA finals and to the Eastern Conference finals. Yeah, but, but they need a piece to get over the hot. Yeah, it's not great. For me, this is not about Jimmy Butler and Bam. It's about the rest of the pieces. Like Jimmy and Butler and Bam are fine pieces up there. It's right. Can Tyler hero be the next guy. He had a very, he shot a ton last night. I think he took like 25 shots for 24 last night.

Seven for 24. So inefficient. Yep. That's the key. Ken Tyler Hero take the step. Can he play any defense? That's the kind of stuff. And Kyle Lowry, I mean,

I already misgaved Vincent. Max Truce went off last night for 27 points. You saw what he did in Cleveland. I was shocked that he was a cavalier. I mean, yes, I had no idea. I mean, I just think it's going to be interesting to see how this heat season plays out, because I think a lot of people are feeling like you, Stu got's like, there's nothing about this team that looks better.

So, just, where's the peace going to come from? Where's the move? Is there a move to be made for this team? They were expecting Tyler Hiro to be that next piece that would fill in and score that 20 some odd points for game pat Riley said in the press conference Hey, we need another 20 point per game score. It can't be Jimmy. It can't be banned. They already do that We need Tyler to come in play massive minutes score a ton because that's what he's here to do That's why they paid him a hundred million dollars, right seven for 24 last night against the pistons who are not good It's right. It's one game. It's one game, of course, one game.

But Kate Cunningham at 30 points. Kate Cunningham look great. Jeremy Tache is so mad at me via text right now. Really? Just because like we're coming out negative towards the heat. They are wanting to know at the in a couple of weeks, we're going to look back on this game. No one's going to think about the squander.

They squander the 19 point lead. I know, but they won. So who cares? No, I know they won, but by larger point about the heat, why I don't think they'll be that good is because the Celtics in the box are overwhelming Especially Boston. We'll find out tomorrow. I'm sorry Wait Billy when your fingers look good the heater tied for first and he did right you're right. They're the one seed That's correct. Yeah, time for one

You think it's too early to react because the bulls had a players only meeting after their blowout loss. No way. The early his players only meeting in the history of sports. They did players only sort things out. Who's the head coach? I have no idea. Billy Donovan. Uh oh. Uh oh.

Oh boy. He's hot. He's hot. One game in. You're in the hot seat. He's still the coach of the bulls. Yeah. That's funny.

Lucy, you just did the gator chomp over there is that where you will be going this weekend because I have the results of your poll. It should be. It is. That's where you should be going. What was the final number? I believe it was 57%.

Hold on. I was closer than I thought. I thought it would be a blowout for Georgia, Florida. 57.8%. Do you like traveling to places that are closer? Because this is an easy travel for you. That'd be a weird answer. She's like I prefer the longest I think it sort of depends for the reason that I was like I wasn't really leaning one or the other but I like going to home games more than I like going to neutral psych games That makes sense because the atmosphere is better. I like like seeing the stadium and the campus and all that stuff.

So that's like why Utah was even on this list and that game is a lot better. But I don't mind being close. I'm very tired. I'm on the road all the time. So it is nice when my flight's one hour and not four. Chris, are you still scared of Bill Belichick? Like when he comes into town,

it strolls in the town. Are you scared of Belicec? I know, we're not doing that thing anymore of like he's gonna take that one thing away. Has he been taking the one thing away this season? He has, but they just haven't been good enough to overcome that. But his offense, he's never beat to a.

Right. And the dolphins have always been good against the Patriots and Belicec. Even when Brady was here. I know, they were down here. At home, down here. At home, yeah. The dolphins are becoming the team

that you just have to look at the injury report before betting on them or watching them play. Like Tyreek now is having, like may not play this Sunday, a hip issue, which is terrifying for me personally, because he's on my fantasy team. But. Good game to rest though.

I mean, I can't believe I'm saying that about Bella check. I mean, come on. They looked good last week. Honestly, Mac Jones looked good last week. I think Connor Williams might be more important than Tyree Kilder this team. That's a stupid thing to say. I'm telling you, dude.

That's a really ridiculous thing to say. Are I can burga at center? It's like me playing center. He's so bad. I thought about that actually. He's so bad. But that on the pole, please. Obviously, I'm being a little,

so like I'm trying to just do a thing. Like Tyree, it's obviously great, but it's just this outfit, like if you tell me Tyree, I'm on to just do a thing. Tyreeks obviously great, but it's just, this outfit, if you tell me Tyrone Amstead and Connor Williams are playing and Waddles, I feel like our receiving core is deeper than our offense line, is my point. Tyree kills the most important person on the dolphins. More important than two.

He might be the most important guy on the lead in the league. I think we can answer that question on Sunday. If the dolphins offense looks great on Sunday without Tyreek, the system is still, I'm not saying you're wrong. We'll see what great on Sunday without Tyreek. The system is still I'm not saying you're wrong. We'll see what it looks like without Tyreek, but I would I think the argument can be made that Connor and William Connor Williams and an arm's dead are more important to this offense because there's less depth at offensive line. We have receivers. We just got Chase Claypool like I feel like the receivers can do enough. I need Connor Williams to play. Okay.

But you can play center for the dolphins. Is what you said? I played center. This past Sunday against Eagles. Really? I can berg. I love the guy. Put it on the pole.

Could Chris play center for the dolphins? No. Did Chris play center? Oh, sorry. Did Chris play center last week for the dolphins? Is this going to lead to some sort of contest between you and Ikenberg? We're like, you guys are lined up against each other and you're pushing each other?

No, because they'd both be playing the same position. So it'd be like a long snap, or like a snap. You guys should do like the fake sumo suits against each other. Because that's like safe. If it's just a two of you, well, if it's just a two of you against each other,

he's going to destroy you. But if there's padding, at least it's somewhat safe. You know what Billy? I'm in all right A few with icon burn. No, I'll sumo wrestle. I can burn fake sumo. I agree to it. It will agree to it The challenge has been when's the buy week? I'm on this play center for the dolphin. They're on week like 13 I think it's wild usually you get the buy by usually you get the buy week after like the game in Europe. Yeah, they shouldn't have a look. They haven't been doing that this year.

That's what teams come back from London and play another game right after. Yeah. Interesting. Billy, how was your FIU game last night? It went well. Yeah. Yeah, I was a little more serious this time, I think.

But I had a good time. I like doing it. All right. Here's a stat. You want a stat of the day? Do we have to do a stat of the day? Is there a sponsor? We can do a stat of the day. You want to do one? a stat, you wanna stat of the day, do we have to do a stat of the day? Is there a sponsor? We can do a stat of the day.

In games that I have called TV, FIU has been outscored 42 to nothing in the first quarter. Which he made sure to send me while I was calling the game. Yeah. It's a good stat though. It does a good stat though. It does a good stat. It's a good stat.

It's a good stat. It's a good stat. It's a good stat. It's a good stat. It's a good stat. It's a good stat. It's a good stat. It's a good stat.

It's a good stat. it like in yourself to be like, you know what, I'm gonna take this a little bit more serious. No, they didn't make me be more serious. I just, you know, I had some thought. You are free to do what you want to do when that broke in, right? Yeah, but I mean, I'm not gonna like, I'm not there to make a mockery of the whole thing.

Respect the boost. I'm not, yeah, like, I'm not the clown referee. That's a job that's not mine. Okay. You know, be a great clown referee by the way. Right. No, incredible clown referee. I don't think I have the right energy and temperament.

You were poor for that, Billy. I know, I don't think that I could be a good clown. I really don't. I mean, I am one, but I don't think I could be one. You know, like, I couldn't be a clown at a kids party. I don't think, because I can't, I can't muster up that fake energy. I could be a clown.

You could, Chris could obviously be a great clown. Back in my day, right? You would be the clown that like, smoking a heater. Exactly right. With the five o'clock shadow clown beard. Like you'd be like the disgruntled clown. And he bottles a liquor just in your car. I'll take the generic clown.

You'd even argue it. You go and do it. You're like going through the motions on the tricks, whatever a kid comes over, you try to sell him beer. And then you like show him how all the tricks are done. You have these selling little kids beer? Yeah, because you're not gonna give it to them. I mean, there's money to be made there.

You're right. Or have the kids steal a beer from the dad and the cooler? Like, hey, go give your dad's beer over there. Yeah, exactly. Or sell them beer. I think Billy's odds are selling them. Like, I'm gonna sell them their own beer. You go and you steal it from the dad's fridge

and you sell it to the kids. You show up at the 7-11 and you have your ID, you walk outside and you sell it to the kids. You show up at like the 7-Eleven and you have like your ID you walk outside and you're like you handed to them behind the side. Actually Tony, I'll combine it. Go steal your dad's beers, bring them over here. I'll sell them to another kid. Yes. How about that?

Or another dad. Yeah, or another dad. Don Lebertard. Did you watch me at Energy Street? I was all ACC. I don't have necessarily the mobility, but no one can see over the line like me. Michael, the ACC network job is a good job.

It's a stable job. I need a packet in. I've got a lot of good football left, didn't I? My footwork is underrated. I can step up in the pocket with the best of all. No one can skate in the field like me. But wouldn't it be nice to be around the family more often and I have to worry about any injuries? Babe, just give me one more chance.

Still gots. Tell you what, I'm not going to therapy. I'm not. Therapy is not happening. Sorry. You need to work on you. There's one person pulling the rope for this family right here. And it's Mike.

Glen. There's one person pulling the rope for this family right here and it's Mike This is the Don LeBathar show with this two gods So we have an assortment of sounds from Billy doing the job you gave yes, we do Wow, thank you for your work on that Billy I know you went to a broadcast you were out late and then you cut your own tape. All right, imagine, you're incredible, dude. Actually last night, hey guys, you want a tease of what's to come later this week on the show? We're gonna be revealing the first time this season's BCS later this week on Cobbless football.

That's what I was doing last night, is that, the real BCS? Yes, the real BCS. Because we talked about the fake BCS earlier, like the most important. Miami was number one, it's the only time we talked about it, yeah. Yes, the real BCS. Because we talked about the fake BCS earlier, like the, my amy was number one. Right. That was fake one.

Clearly flawed. Clearly flawed. This is the real BCS, Billy Christmas to God's BCS. Yes, exactly right. Some people wait around for the CFP rankings. Right. Not us, BCS. It's out here, bright and early.

We're going to get it to you before the CFP rankings are out. That's right. And we've already expanded our playoffs. We haven't. Well, well, we did before anyone else. Yeah. Well, our playoff was always bigger than the other one. Our playoff, as everybody knows, just a reminder is six teams. Oh, yeah. All right. So a standard to any pregame show is the keys to the game. Oh, God. Let's listen to Billy Gil. Billy Gil or keys to the game. Multiple keys today, AJ. Hold on.

Yeah, I think that the guys got a stick to the game plan, AJ. Play with a chip on their shoulder. Win the real estate battle. Stay hungry. When the meal's on the plate, eat. Stick to the game plan. Win the real estate battle. Eat.

Meal on the plates. Yeah, when it's there, you got to eat. You have to eat. Got to have calories. Mm-hmm. Solid. I stand by that. Who do you? I do. Where you gotta eat. You have to eat. Got half calories. Solid. I stand by that. I do. I do. Where you have to. When the meals are on the plate,

you eat to the game, right? You can't, you can't, you can't bail on your keys to the game. I'll tell you what, yesterday, one of the keys for more of the other broadcasters was when the time of possession, which they did to your point, but lost by 25. But don't let that score fool you. The game was closer than that score indicates. It's impossible. No, it's not. It's really not.

It's really not. So you got, there was one of the worst, and I hate to be like the officials, or referees, screwed us. One of the worst calls I've ever seen, where they called kick-catch interference. So like essentially, the punt returner fumbled the ball, and they

said that he interfered with the play that the defense interfered with the play leading to the fumble that FIU recovered and would have been on the 30 yard line and could have made it a one possession game with either a field goal or a touchdown. So they came all the way back for and well they didn't but they could have come all the way back and made it one to the game. Yeah. And and then you see the replay. No one touched the guy. No one was anywhere near him. It was a horrific call. Did you get our rate on the broadcast? You start ripping people? No, I'm measured. When I do, when I do the broadcast, I kind of keep the emotions in check because I'm there to paint a picture, you know, of course. Yes. It's not a self portrait. Yes. It's a picture of what's going on. Out of boy. Let's let's hear Billy paint.

First down. Jacksonville State Court. You mentioned a few minutes ago's going on. At a boy. Let's let's hear Billy paint first down. Jackson will stay court. You mentioned a few minutes ago, fast as tempo in the country. They averaged 20 seconds per play. What's the rush? Long game. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha in a good way though right Lucy? You are great. I listen to every single time you do it. Okay so if you're wondering how did they win the type of possession battle and still lose by 25? It's because of that very stat where they were averaging like plays every 20 seconds.

So they were in and out. They were quick to score. Any more? Took a home run shot, but good coverage. The second area there and it'll be second down. That's all right. You don't have to complete that for it to be a really positive play for the Panthers. Because you now put that in the mind of Jack State, make him think about it.

Tarnu was tremendous there in phase. It came behind him so he could easily knock it down with his back. That's still good for FIU. What have been better if they completed it though? Yeah, we would have preferred that. Yeah, it would have been a touchdown. It was a play in the end zone. It would have been a lot better. Good incompletion right there.

But a completion better. Wait a second. Can I hear the pros do that again? Because Billy's right. I mean, you nailed it. I need to hear that sound again. I want to hear that clip. Took a home run shot, but good coverage. And the second area there, and it'll be second down. That's all right. You don't have to complete that for it to be a really positive play for the Panthers.

Because you now put that in the mind of Jack State, make him think about it. Tarnu was tremendous there in phase. It came behind him so he could easily knock it down with his back. That's still good for FIU it would have been better if they completed it though yeah we would have we would have preferred that yeah yeah yeah we're very good bit of a bishop to root nine there by Billy on the broadcast I mean you put it in their head

but do those guys hate you or I always do wonder I think AJ's fine I always wonder if like I don't know if Cory books likes me or not more AJ were you asking us about our Halloween costumes because you wanted us to ask you? No, I'm just self-listened love to love to acquire my friends. Okay. What are you gonna be? So I don't I don't know if oh when in Windows Halloween fall on a Tuesday the 31st in 10 on the 11 He's right cosplay I stand by that one too. So helpful. Same day every year actually was Halloween night last night. Was it? Yeah. Did you dress up? I did and I didn't know. You should have been dressed up in the

boots. Well, I was wearing a borderline Hawaiian shirt so you could say I was dressed up, but it's just because I like the fabric. Very comfortable. Yeah, it's a really comfortable. Borderline Hawaiian shirt. What's borderline? It was floral print. DJ Max, great price. Great deals.

I'm actually stuck with that because I wore it the day that we did company pictures. So that was actually my credential picture for a lot of things. I'm wearing a Hawaiian shirt, which is better than what Hilbee and Kristen used to do, which was when I was credentialed for Marlon Spring training games. They used to do which was like when I was credentialed for like

Marlon's spring training games they used to submit my eighth grade football picture Which is like how how is this even allowed so I would go and it would be a child's picture for me every time I got a credential There's a great prank, but it kind of annoying when I'm trying to be taken seriously I think I just heard Kristen laughing out there. Oh, she's the worst. Oh, Kristen loves Billy, so worse. She's not tainted, I found out today. What? It's just a fun aside.

Fun fact. Yeah. Let's take a look. We can see Billy out here. Oh my god, that's great. Comfy shirt. You're really comfortable in that shirt. Like you got it.

I almost wore a suit. How many buttons? I was really showing some jazz out there. I was gonna wear a suit yesterday just to surprise them when. I almost wore a suit. How many buttons? How many buttons? I was really showing some jazz out there. I was gonna wear a suit yesterday just to surprise them when I got there wearing a suit. Were they wearing Halloween costumes? No, they were, they were, they were, they were a little dress down, little polo shirts.

I'm trying to age, he's like, I used to wear a suit to every game and I'm like, AJ, buddy, dress for the job you want not the one you have, you should still be wearing a suit. What are we doing here? One more, please. It's a simple call. I mean, crazy James is six three. That's three plus yards of quarterback that you can just push ahead. Well, I'd be nine feet of his three yards

Die right there's bad bad math Wow two yards two plus yards that guy hates you. I think he does I hate I have a million. I gotta tell you something you are great You know what you know what I sense that he hated me is when I said that they forced a turnover on downs He's like, it's a pun. I was like, okay, I mean you're right, but my point was Eighth our point is they hate you. Yeah, probably one more we have more give it to me The holding penalty has been a kill you seal for weeks and that's really the first one that's had any impact It's a tough timing there though. It's like in the 14 now. And negates a tremendous individual effort from Owens.

Well, it's a team sport. Do you just undercut him at every word? That's what he does. Tony. I already used to it. I know. It's a broadcast. I think I know. I think I think that that Taylor got like all the ones that I did,

because I really didn't do it that much yesterday. My favorite thing that I don't think we get to was in the post game show. I found out that AJ's girlfriend is a dentist, so we were just talking about dentistry for a while. There's nothing like a mid play call correction. Well, I'd be nine feet, it was three yards. Yeah, you're right. That's bad math. Wow. We're making it seem like the I'd be nine feet, it was three yards. Yeah, you're right.

That is bad math. Wow. We're making it seem like the quarterbacks, nine feet tall. That's, you know, I'm trying to paint a picture here. So how did he write to Les on the radio? And I was like, that is true. People were watching,

people listening to that are like, there's a nine foot quarterback out there. Yeah, I also, I won't point, I won't point. Guys, I have a confession to make. At one point, I said that I suffered from trigantism. I don't, just to clear that up. So people thought you were an Iifey talk.

Well, because that's what people were saying the last time because Taylor was walking around and we were doing a video before the game and I was talking to like the kickers or whatever, right? And I don't know if it was the camera angle or what it was, but I seemed to be towering over them. And people thought that I was six foot six because they looked up the kicker and it said

that the kicker was five, 10. And like six one maybe on a good day maybe six two if I'm wearing my heels right so I'm walking around and people think that I'm six six because they were going by that height so then they pointed that out and I didn't want to say that the kicker is not actually five ten so I just said that I suffer from gigantism which I don't I made that up so I'm sorry I'm sorry for everyone out there that I suffer from that all right back with a hopefully more Billy Gil sound after this done lib a card I read his lips and it sounded like he was saying what you want to Fight me now spoke but I'm telling you if you look we can play a game right now the lips look the same on Fight you and failure watch my lips let gonna turn off my mic. No, I just look at you.

I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,

I'm like, I I just can't hear a word. You're a mind, man. You're a mind, man. I just want to audio up. Here we go. Do it again. No. Fight you. Fight you. I made you can't tell. Oh my god. We got to the bottom of it. This is the Don Lebertar Show with this two cats.

Music Yesterday's two cats we had Chris make an offer that I believe was one of the most insincere offers that's ever been made, but also like a hilarious checkmate moved by him because no one will ever take him up on that offer. So Chris texts us at like 6am and is like my daughter's sick. But if you want, I can bring her in because there's no one to watch her. So naturally everyone will say no, don't do that.

Just stay home with your daughter, it's fine. He knows the answer before he said it. 100% looks dedicated, he looks like he's doing everything he can to get to work because we know he knows that we have a sculpt and staff that's doing it. That's the reason I made that offer. But it was an honor to hit it mid. My daughter's been sick before and usually it's my daughter's sick.

I'm not coming in. But admit, that was a BS offer. At no point would you ever think, like if Sue got to be like, yeah, bring it gracefully. I was tempted. Why I was tempted to do it. I was.

I was. That's a great idea. If the answer was, we literally just have like Tony in the back room today. Well, I was tempted to do it. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. It was too early to text Chris. Dude, that's right. I literally, you want to know the thought process. It's exactly with Kristen. I had the idea of, get her sick. Parking right outside the studio

and leaving your child in a locked car. What? Stop talking. No, stop talking. We ain't crazy, stop talking. I want to hear this. Stop talking. They're going to take your child.

He's just out there. Right. So you have Kristen watching your kid in the car outside in the car. My daughter would love that. Three-Straight-Hours with her tablet. No, no. in the car. My daughter would love that. Three straight hours with her tablet. No, no. Lucy is shocked.

Yes, look, I'm just saying the thought, the things that went in my head, I'm like, how can we do this? Seize them in your head. Lucy, you may lose your children. Thoughts please, because you're just sitting there staring at girls in amazement. You're just gonna leave your daughter in a car for free hour.

You can leave your car. Car was on. They're trying to turn this into a hot day. Yeah, no air conditioning. It's the car's on, no. on. They're trying to turn this into a hot day. No air conditioning. It is covered. Car's on Max A.C. Max A.C.

I'm just trying to keep my daughter isolated from everybody, but yet still safe. No. Are you saying, my daughter's not safe in a car? No. No. No, I'm not. Christen, you can climb in the front seat, put her foot on a break and shift gears.

Not a dog. But he has Christen out there watching the car and his dog. What's the best I have to do right? I think that a child is more capable of doing that than a dog. I was talking about. No, my daughter knows if your dog can drive a car that's incredible. And play with all the buttons, whereas a dog might just start running around the whole car. All right.

My daughter knows what button's not the touch because she's touched from before and I say, don't touch those buttons. I have a question for you. But first it has important things to do around here. I was just watching it I'm the worst case scenario. How could we do this? I know you're not gonna want my daughter in the the common area like work How could I come to work today? So why was your first in sync car and not just like put her in the back room? Oh, that that was just because that because she still has to walk through. There's still, like, that she's still in this area. You were never gonna bring her.

I wish you had. No, I would have if you guys were like, we literally have no one to do content. Like, we don't have people here. Like, usually we have 58 people. No, we appreciated that part a bit. Right, and it was genuine. I knew you guys would sit down.

No one wants your sick daughter here. I will admit, I knew you guys would say now. See, that's okay. Okay, all right. I love being genuine in if you needed me. I believe that. I was gonna come in wither sick daughter here. I will admit I knew you guys would say now see okay But I was being genuine in if you believe that I was gonna come in I believe I do believe that I was genuine I knew I was gonna get the answer. No, I said yes. I can't believe that the top rises was a tablet car three hours We're good. Yeah with someone watch key thing here someone out there watching or the key thing the AC's on The key thing. Thank you, John. That's the A.C.s blasting. And someone is standing out there just staring at her

from the outside. A smart man once told me, never ask a question. You don't already have the answer to. This guy gets it. Chris asked a question. He already knew the answer to that way he texted and then went right back to sleep. Because he knew nobody was going to say yes.

Yeah, but it was a stupid-ass question. I wish I got to go right back to sleep. Honestly, my daughter, she was one of these six where she couldn't go because she was coughing and sneezing, but her energy level wasn't down. So she was just, still gots called me at 1 p.m. yesterday. Yeah, he was frailing. I was like, I have had a terrible day.

Most people are like, oh, he got out of work. It was like, I mean, I hate to say terrible day because I was with my daughter, but she was just all over the place. Were you looking? Were you sneezing, running around wanting to go places? I'm like, you're sick, we can't go anywhere. Well, he started the conversation by saying, my daughter is just running all over the house, and I said, I thought she was sick. I'm like, she is. Sometimes you just like,

so sick enough to stay home from school, but not sick enough to where she's not going to play while she's home. Right. Which I was happy. No, she can't fake that stuffed upness. God, that she is. Looks so bad right now. I have a, we've never, we've never had a disclaimer on the screen before. So we'll just say that. Well, this is because you guys do this thing. You said kid in a car, and I'm like, I never said anything

about it. I'm really, really, really, really, really, like, stop talking. They're going to take your kids. They all going to take your kids. You listen to what I'm saying. I'm just painting pictures, man. Not self-portraits. I

Have a good I have stupid disclaimer off the screen. I have a great. No, it's a good time now This is important. Did you run that idea by your wife? No, you presented it to us not a chance Well my my wife knew I was because my wife couldn't so I was like I'm I'm in charge of her What is Greg doing? Why couldn't Greg bitchin? Yeah. Dude, Grandpa. Yeah, Greg's also sick. He did go to the heat game, sick. Oh boy.

Oh. Why didn't you stay in the car? My dad's also sick. Everyone's sick right now. Chris, you realize how you called your wife and told her, I'm bringing that word sick daughter to work. And here's the plan. Car, AC, garage, Kristen, she would have divorced you.

I mean, my wife would have assumed that she was coming inside in her studio for sure. I have a question. I would have left out the car part. Yeah, well, should have done that today too. I have a question for you guys that I want to interact with the audience on and I have a hashtag if you want. So this eye for me was one of the strangest things

that my daughter has ever cried for. Because you know kids cry for like the dumbest things, right? My daughter likes ketchup. She likes eating french fries with ketchup. Sometimes she'll just like dip her finger in the ketchup and just loves to taste the common kid thing. Yes, okay. Now we haven't gotten to the strange part yet.

She likes hamburgers. We went and we got her a happy meal yesterday, we were like, do you want chicken nuggets? She's like, no, I want a hamburger. So, okay. So then I said, naturally, I'm gonna blow her mind. I'm gonna put ketchup on this hamburger, and she's going to love it.

Started crying. As soon as I put ketchup on the hamburger, she started crying, and I said, this must be the strangest thing that I've gotten her to cry over because this is a very normal thing that everybody does, ketchup on a hamburger, started crying. My daughter does that with cheese,

like she loves string cheese and every form of cheese, but if you put like melted cheese on a sandwich, she's like, oh, I'm like, I'm telling you, you like this. I'm enhancing the sandwich. And then like, really, like she doesn't give it a chance. She's just like, no, I don't want that. It's just like, I'm telling you, you like this. I'm enhancing the sandwich. And then like, really, like, she doesn't give it a chance. She's just like, no, I don't want that. It's just like, I'm telling you, look at me.

I know this, this is my area. I'm gonna eat this. This is a dad's wheelhouse. I just put like a little, a little dabble do ya. Just a little, like a little dot on there so that she could taste it and realize that she liked it and then I could just put a mountain of ketchup on there because she loves ketchup, didn't do it.

So, hashtag Stranger Things at us at Levittart Show at all of us. Yeah, if you have a stranger things that, you know, your children have cried over whatever, or you've cried over. I get desperate when I really want my daughter to try something and it just say, it gets really ugly.

I'm just like, no tablet for a week unless you try this. Oh, wow. I start throwing out these fake threats that don't mean anything just because it's like, this is so absurd that you won't try this. I know you'll like this. You're looking worse and worse by the minute here. I'm just like these fake threats that don't mean anything just because it's like this is so absurd that you won't try this I know you'll like this you're looking worse and worse by the minute here Just a human right? Well, I'm not perfect. It's just a human hashtag stranger things Thank you. We're gonna get it to Trent. Do you have an example of something you wanted her to eat that she didn't eat And it's probably some sandwich with cheese on it because it's like I don't understand this math you're doing you like cheese

Right, this is the delicious. Everyone likes cheese. I'm with you on that. Like she doesn't want to eat a grilled cheese. I'm like, it's like a lactose intolerant. Real cheese, it's a lactose intolerant. You're lactose intolerant? No, I'm just saying. Those who don't like cheese. Those are the only people though, right? Yeah.

But the kid is telling you, hey, let me figure it out for myself. Like, I'll get to cheese when I want to get to cheese. Not when dad wants me to get to cheese, Chris. I just feel like, you ever like make, like not make like offer your child something and they try it, it's just such a good feeling when they're like, huh, I actually tried something. Oh, and you're right, this is good.

So did your daughter feel better? She's still sick, but we centered today. You did. I mean, get all the other kids sick. Right. Hey, you're running around the house, get to school, you know? I didn't want to send the text again. Right.

Listen, when you're sick from school and you stay home from school, you got to milk it. Like, you cannot be running around the house by the blocks. You won't. You got to sit and bet, yeah, you won for a day. But if you want multiple days, you just got to sit there and eat it.

But I don't think that his daughter's the age of faking sick to get out of school. Yeah, it was, it's more us telling her. Like, she doesn't even know to be like, I don't wanna go to school. She just wakes up all snotty and we're like, oh, she can't go. But that's something you can teach her for a rainy day, okay?

Hey, next time you're sick from school, act like you're sick, okay? Stop running around the house doing stuff. The teacher had a lie about it. Yeah, exactly right. Instead of just getting the most jerry and important skill. Yeah, okay, okay. You were gonna say?

Ha ha ha ha ha. I'm just gonna say that there's another, there was another disclaimer up there. Like people don't have the context for these disclaimers. What was a disclaimer? It was just Chris does not threaten his kid. It's like, geez, that's good. That's a good disclaimer. Really?

What are we doing to me here? Oh, there it is. Chris Cody does not threaten his child regularly. You can do it too, right now, really. No, it's, I mean, it's, it's a good clarifier. Tony, you want us money last night? Come on, baby. a good clarifier. Tony, you want us money last night? Come on, baby. It gets a spread.

Luca, Kairi and Demboys. It's exactly what the Mavericks are. Luca, Kairi, and I can't name another player. And Lively, who is dunking all over the place? Who is that guy? Derek Lively, sick. I bet the game, what'd you think of Victor? And I said Victor because I don't want to pronounce his last name.

Wenbanyama, yeah. Wenb Yama, Yama, Yama. He was okay in the first half. He's a couple of threes. Yeah. They're not working the offense through him. They're working through other guys that we can't name because we don't know who they are because of the spurs and they were terrible last year, right?

But he had good spirts where he had two, three minutes where he blocked a shot. He came back, had a little back to the basket, turned around jumper. Like, there's stuff there that tells you, okay, this guy's pretty good, but it's going to take a lot for him to be like, what everybody thought he was going to be. I was expecting more. I watched that game just for him, and because I had money on it. Right. Naturally. But I, you know, it's one game, the Bulls had a team meeting after

a game, after a blowout loss. I don't want to overreact to one game. I just, I don't know, just so so to me. It's that he plays a lot of like outside in basketball, right? So he's shooting a lot of threes because that's what the NBA is now. Shooting a lot of threes. So his first bucket in the NBA was a three. And it shows you how the game has changed so much where your seven foot four center is now scoring from the outside instead of scoring from the inside. And I think that was the biggest point for Wembee is, if he can dominate the outside, the way that we think he can because of his skill,

do you think he can? I think so. Like, nobody can block a shot. He had centers lively trying to block a shot who seven feet tall, and he was just shooting right over him. For me, the most important part of Wembee is, can he go inside and score with the big boys inside? Can he break somebody off the dribble,

take them into the lane and score? He didn't really do that. He had a dunk where he didn't even jump. He just kind of put his arm up and dunked in and got an NAND one, but it wasn't something where he's commanding inside the lane.
