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 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 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. The tequila that invented tequila.

I'm noxious. And so why did you just say, as Juju came into the screen with his Matt Ryan jersey, that Matt Ryan saved your life? Cause I got traded to the Falcons in Matt Ryan's rookie year. And they had just got rid of, things were really bad in Atlanta. And so in my contract year,

it's very important that you play well and play for a good team so you can get paid. And so I get traded, I'm like distraught when I get traded to the Falcons, assuming they're gonna be bad and I'm gonna have a bad year for my contract year. That's when I first started thinking about business school because I was like, yeah, I'm not going to like be a journeyman

who never really hits it big. Then I get down there and I don't play in the first game because I get down there the week of the first game and Matt throws a touchdown pass on his very first pass. And then we go on to have a really good season and part of having a good season, I obviously play well also. And you're on a good team, you make the playoffs,

people pay those people money. So Matt Ryan, I mean, I was being hyperbolic. Like, I did what I was like. That was pretty good, he made you a lot of money. Juju, why are you wearing Beyond Always Repping Atlanta? Why are you wearing the Matt Ryan gear today? Any particular reason? Nah, just keeping it fresh, you know what I mean?

Fresh and funky, as they say. And I just happened to land on the Matt Ryan jersey today. You feel me? Salute to Mattie Ice. Zazz is now gone, but can we put that picture up again, please, for Juju to enjoy the picture of Zaslow telling everybody on Earth and America and any continent where hockey is played

that that is the way that you play hockey. What commentary do you have for us on Zaslow making America great again there? I wanted to say when Davani said, Beluga-esque, the scream that came out of my living room. Same. The ask. So good.

The ask. Also, Timbo Slice from YouTube says light bulb head ass. It does look like a light bulb. Damn. He do look like he's a good idea. It's not just that it looks like a light bulb, also the color of certain light bulbs, as well I would say a bit translucent.

His pointer finger, the same exact shape as his head. That is indeed how it is that you play hockey. What else do you have in the way of commentary on today's meanderings, Juju? As I want to point out that the Tony bedding street still lives on. You're welcome. He told you yesterday when he bets against the team,

them boys capitalize and my boy took one for the team yet again yesterday. Partly that with a little Leon Dreisaito goal. Guess who didn't score, buddy? LD. Whoa, whoa, whoa. That was against the spread though. Yeah, well, what he's saying,

what Juju is saying is that if just pick against Tony, that Tony gets it totally wrong, so just don't take what- It's sacrificial, Dan. That's what you're missing. That's the connection point. He took Edmonton with a goal and a half, and obviously they could have gotten many goals and a half

and still not covered. It wouldn't not cover. Yes. That's right. So we didn't discuss the greatest catch possibly in MLB history yesterday from Denzel Clark from the A's. Oh, my goodness. And when I saw that, I was like, OK, I had to pause the hockey game and mosey on over there to the A's game of all games I was like, yeah, I salute the Dizzier clock One can only mosey over to an A's game. That's the only way to get over there

That's some 10. Oh five Eastern television. That's something you have No, that's they got the nobody starts over to an A's game. You're never darting over to an A's game But I am often betting against the ace. I have been for two seasons, so I'm aware that they didn't play very well against the Angels. But I have not seen the highlight. I have not seen the catch yet. Please describe it for me, because that's not

a highlight I've seen yet today. Athleticism. He climbs up the wall and just reaches across his whole body. Very impressive. Think of Wesley Snipes in the Charlie Sheen movie. I forgot the name of it. Major League. Major League.

Well, was it Wesley Snipes? No, wait a minute. In a second Major League movie, the character that I believe, the Asian character. No, the Asian character, not Omar Epps, ended up catching a ball while standing on the left field fence. Yes, I remember that. Ended up catching a ball while standing on the left field fence

It wasn't climbing over the fence it was just standing on the left field wall, let's all stare at Dan the wall. I assume we can't show it for whatever reason. So we're watching it on our phone and it's damn impressive. That is crazy athleticism. Waste that athleticism in baseball. There can't be very much. That's kind of a failed contract there. That has to feel better than hitting a home run, right? That robbing a home run where you're climbing and the upper half of your body is all the way over the fence. Has to feel and you're the only one who knows that you have the ball. You're the only one in the park who knows. Right. Backpedaling, Denzel.

Right. Speaking of backpedaling, working on your backpedaling, Demarcus' cousins yesterday had the crowd. I don't know if that's Puerto Rico. He had them boys backpedaling. He almost had a, what is it, the palace with the Pacers, whatever that was called. Malice at the Palace was almost again part two

Demarcus Cousins against the entire crowd yesterday. Luckily that brother got out of there safe. And the fans. I don't think that, I think, Juju, I would take that the other way. An army of people are coming after DeMarcus Cousins. I got DeMarcus Cousins. I'm gonna, I'm going to worry about the fans there

more than I'm gonna worry about DeMarcus Cousins. I don't think anybody wants those particular problems. It was in the Puerto Rican league. He plays for the Mets at Wynobble. Okay, how bad is that video though? Is he still playing that guy from the Puerto Rican national team, Ortiz, who's like 47 years old with gel in his hair Do you know I'm talking about who's in that Puerto Rican league Carlos?

There's a bunch of good players in the Puerto Rican league Dan what happened whitesides out there what what DeMarcus cousins? We're in agreement that those That people should be afraid if they're trying to fight the Marcus cousins that don't that will not go well for people. Yeah, it started court side with a heckling fan, which in my opinion, like fan, what are you doing? Do you know who you heckling? Have you not seen the tapes? But he started there, got kicked out of the game and then the whole

way to the locker room fans throwing stuff at him. So he was trying to retaliate. He slipped and fell through the grace of God. Because if he would have been let loose, I don't know, we would be having a whole different conversation about this. This might have led the show today. Seems like the wrong person to disrespect.

Yeah. Who's the right person to disrespect? Well, not him. Not him. I don't know who you would select. Not Eddie Royal. No. I select't know who you would select, not Eddie Royal. No. I select David Samson.

That's the right person to disrespect because we forgot to remember the last, about a month ago, Carlos Alcares was like, I chose happiness over massive success because happiness is success. And David Samson came over, what a loser, loser behavior. He's never gonna be anything. And he gave us one of the most entertaining best matches ever on Sunday against a winner, the number one person in the world,

which I will argue that happiness inside of him probably had him able to go through the different modes of, man, you know what, I'm feeling locked in, man. And then he was pumping the crowd up while he was gone. I feel like that happiness is very important. So yeah, David, David Sampson, another one. Does it make you a little sad that the Mets are nine and 18 and boogies there on that team?

Nine and 18. Yeah. And the poor man can be. The Mets. I pictured him playing baseball now. That was a funny visual. Excellent work. But it's like on the mound with a baseball hat.

Is the calot of bad takes, though. That one is a good one to remind people of because that was something we were talking about a couple of months ago. I meant to do this earlier. Another one. You wanted to talk, Dominique, and we didn't have anybody here

who had seen any of the BET Awards because evidently Dominique didn't watch hockey last night because he was, and he faked his way through the show today because he was actually watching the BET Awards instead. I mean, y'all, I felt like the universe was testing me. I watched a little bit of hockey. He's trying to give the show wrench. He knew that we would have the hockey covered.

So he's like, I'll cover this. No, I was like, if the world ended right now, I don't want it to end with the BET Awards on TV and me watching hockey. I just couldn't have it. So, Luckily, God bless me. I got a little three TV set up.

So I had the BET Awards on the second guy. What about sound? What was the sound in the BET Awards? The sound was in Sunrise. You best please believe. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, shut down city. Let's go.

See red. All right. Right, and I do agree with you, Dominique. I don't know how or when. Maybe I don't know his backstory, but Teddy Swim's being invited to the cookout. I don't, that's above my pay grade, I guess. I was stunned.

I mean, that thing, that one song, whoa, whoa, whoa, that thing goes. However. Right. Lose control. Yeah, I'm gonna need you to do a little bit more. I did a little research. Like I believe his wife, she down with us. However, I'm gonna need you to do a little bit more.

I thought we learned our lesson in the past. You can't just come on over here, man. Like, so high ball. You know what it means, Tony. You know what it means, Tony. By association. I'm locked in on the Vaquero de Bayamon, who, Javel McG over here, man. Like, it's a high ball. You know what it means, Tony. You know what it means, Tony. By association. I'm locked in on Los Baquero de Bayamon, who Javel McGee is the center.

And Danilo Golanari is the forward. You can find some real names in there. Ronaldo Bauchman is still playing. Yes, that is a good perusal for the internet. Good team. This is a good use of your internet time. 21 and 7, by the way. Stevie Wonder also admitted last night that he had watched the film on his tribute video.

So it better be good. Look at Stevie man. He used the verb watched. He said he watched it. And he watched the edit. So it better be good. Also shock of the year last night, Glowrilla, who would have thought this is a real sentence

that I'm saying? Glowrilla did a tap dance number and won the BET Award for best gospel song. What? That is a real thing that happened last night. Salute to Glowrilla. I mean, this in collaboration with Kirk Franklin stop right Dan would you like to know where Montrez Herald is no

No, he got the Carolina Sixth man of the year Montrez a fun all-star game to watch I also learned Glorilla's middle name because this was one of the bits that Kevin Hart, who was hosting, was doing, was calling out people's full government name, middle name, Hallelujah. Nice. Gloria Hallelujah Woods. Oh, that's fire.

She should name an album of that. That's a great middle name. Gospel, you see? Like it seems a little less ridiculous now when you know her middle name, Halleluja. Word. Right. And Mr. 106 in part reminded us to keep respect on his name.

That's Lil Bow Wow last night, even though he performed like you with Sierra in the crowd, hoping and praying that she didn't get invited on stage. That was outrageous. That she done moved on to bigger and better things. I guess she didn't wanna perform. I was surprised. I was like, she's right there. Is there some beef that I didn't know about?

Put it on the poll, please. Is Hallelujah a great middle name at Levitard Show? I don't believe we will do better in these polls than the question, did they not boo the guy roller skating to Lou Rawls because he marched during the Civil Rights Movement. But we'll see, we'll find out together. Roy, you still have a stat of the day, correct? We were supposed to get to a stat of the day a little bit earlier, so before we get to the polls, can we do the stat of the day start of the day start of the day and this is the start of the day

Brad Marshawn is the oldest player to score in the first three games of the Stanley Cup final. He's also the first player in NHL history to score in a Stanley Cup final overtime and also Scored the first goal of the very next game. Eat shit Mike It's gonna be an all-time bad take.

Jaleel Oka for Dan Look up he done it out of the seal. Thank you. Tell me we got like a three-man race right now for cons my threat It'd be Bob Marshawn and Bennett, right? Yeah. Yeah. Well, maybe not Bob because the first two games of the series 86 saves the first two games of the series. Nice thinking. He had 86 saves the first two games I think combined. Yeah, but he allowed nine goals. Yeah, maybe a distant third on that one, but yeah, he's up there. How many bad goals though? The polls please, Juju.
