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.

And when he was telling us what he was doing, Stugatz was saying, later this afternoon about five o'clock tonight around the horn time and uh... when he was telling us what he was doing stugatz was saying you were a handsome devil back then because reality is going back to watch

him he's going back to watch one of his first shows or his life for show hosting around the horn which was at the super bowl thirty eight is the janet jackson after i'm glad i want to watch this in full i want to be an older man now going back looking at my younger self. I'm going to play through the emotions of that. I want to hear Woody Page and Jay Marriott and Bill Plashke and Kevin Blackstone rip it up because I remember a lot of that show, but who remembers the takes? I want to hear what they said, if they thought Brady was going to be an all-timer. And what I was saying is Tony is smoking hot right right now i can imagine what a younger tony reality

look all to a handsome devil and you were younger but where you're going to do that's with easy goodie errors else where are you doing it where you're doing where you to live my friend okay but i know you were kind enough to to set that up once before worked out pretty great i'd love to have anybody in the universe who uh... who's been reaching out of the last couple months i've tried to tried to respond to it as many as i could work were in some

the hundreds and five thousands book i know i'm going to get you all i'm gonna get to you all at some point but maybe come on the it's a lot and uh... will watch a show and will watch uh... watch a man look at himself in the area it's like a scrapbook with tony reality twenty three years off about five o'clock today tony and you got to go to the ready so good seeing you and he'll be here all week

not trying to uh... ruin the proceedings uh... the job today so i think yes uh... the failed that's a better around here than the bits that work out we're going to get to do you and against the spread in a second but uh... roy uh... 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 out billy what can you tell me about the project yes what can you tell me about the chris cody project that has big mac stakes 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 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. Like he was up against a deadline. Yeah, he was like crossing the T. He's starting the I's. 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, 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 offensive line. We've needed offensive line for 20 years. And he's always smiling. And the fun thing I noticed to Draft, when this player called and said, hey, how do 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. ["The Big Mac's Theme Song"]

He's been working on it for months. Had to take a day off today because it wasn't ready. Let's hear it. He tried it twice. Let's see what he has for us on the Dolphin schedule. Big Macs. Take of the day. Fantastic. Wim's office, I tell you what, it's a sorry schedule I've seen, but they got Pittsburgh,

they got Cincinnati, they got the Ravens, they got Tampa, they got two Thursdays in that game. So I'm hoping that this tour guy, you heard what happened to his brother, got cut from the CFL and he didn't get drafted last year. And now we got to deal with tour, but I like that Zach Wilson. People think he's sorry. A little backup. Yeah, I think he's gonna be starting pretty soon.

Really? Yeah, I really think he's gonna start. I like his arms. He's got a big arm. What about the other quarterback? Which one the new one? Quentin Quentin. Oh that guy from Texas. All right Big Macs The imaging is worth it. It's a 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?

Gonzalez with an S says, nothing has put a smile on my face in quite a while like seeing Tony Reale on the Libertar show exploring coffee shops. We need to do this more often. He's very good at man on the street stuff. Anybody who wants him, he's exceptional at being friendly with people and annoying us with his small talk four minutes in.

So, but Re reality has been embraced because he's gonna 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, a post 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. ["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 gonna take Juju's Phillies, minus one and a half against the Marlins tonight. Mick Able 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, couple of good QSs. Yeah, back to back QSs, but Mick Able, 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, Espidance. 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 Enrique. 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. I guess. Yes, that's right. Zezlo, go ahead. Yeah, I got one tonight. I'm going over 50 points, rebounds, and assists

for Shay 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, not three tickets. Two tickets plus another one. That is incorrect. Well, what, hold on a second, Zaz.

How about if we get two nice tickets then we resell them on the Game Time app. Yeah, we're talking about that. And then we buy three tickets. He doesn't want bed seats. Two upper deckies. Juju, I wanna play some sound for you. What do you make of Gino Aurema?

No one is doing what Gino Aurema just did to Caitlin Clark. I have not, 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 gonna 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. Ooh! What was that?

It's a terrible take, I mean. When did he say that? It can't be recently. Right, because Kailin Clark returns with 32 points, eight and nine, 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. If she didn't get hurt this year, she would definitely be in the top two running right now for the the league MVP. I think Nafisa Ka'i is gonna 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 assist in a game, was rookie of the year. Yeah she 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 it was Are there any other kind of awakenings other than rude ones spiritual? Oh, thank you. Maybe No to maybe quick way to go Mike You gots to gots 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 Caitlin Clark. I think that does her a disservice because she's just great on her own of course. 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 gonna get to the polls in a second, Michael. We're gonna get to, slow down, slow down. It was a very vulnerable. I wouldn't like this emergency to end with that. We'll get to it in a second. We're very vulnerable. But we've gotta talk about Michael Beasley

and the big three drama. We gotta talk about Dwight Howard. We haven't talked about the US Open. We've left a lot of meat on the bone today. Yeah, I mean, a lot the Big Three drama. We gotta talk about Dwight Howard. We haven't talked about the US 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 them, 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 choice words with one of the players. It was like the Royal Rumble out there this weekend. Welcome back, pick three. It is fun. 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. Don't put me on that, Alan, there. I don't, I believe, well. 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. Like 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 forklift, on the track, the trailer right now, listening to our show, wishing that they can go to-

Zaslow 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 Zaslow Mansion family room? I don't want to go. 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, Dries out. Oh, it's like so nerve wracking. So I understand you're not one to go to his ass. What about the guy in the tractor trailer?

Does he have to fly from Edmonton? What's going on there? 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. You got in a car.

Yeah, you sat on three planes. Yeah. 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. 16 hours. 16 hours. Okay, he's not gonna 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, Mike. Congratulations, Mike. Yes. Hello right, Mike. Congratulations, Mike. Yes. Hello, Twitter world. George Toole.

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 sex, yeah. That is the last time. The Vancouver Millionaires is the last time

that somebody has scored as many road goals as Brad Marshawn has during an NHL playoff. They won a Stanley Cup. It was 1922! I didn't even know there was ice back then! You're landing Oriema slide. Terrible technique. 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? Zestle already told you it's not, right? There should be no polls. Surely this poll is going to come back 57% no, right? Moving on. Yeah, moving on. Yeah, thank you. 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 harsh, yes. It's a cesspool for litigation. Put it on the poll, Juju. That and the that is. Put it on the poll, Juju. That and the trampoline. Put it on the poll, yes, at Leviton 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, no, no. 50% of the audience said no. No, no, no. You are lying. Can you believe birthday cake flavoring is more polarizing than enjoying OJ6 on Twitter? Okay.

Right. more polarizing than enjoying OJ Simpson on Twitter. Right, last poll, when did we stop calling them toupees? We've stopped, right? Their hair systems now. It's a piece. 60% of the audience says yes, and those are your brothers. I am rooting so hard for Shay Gilder's Alexander to have 49 points. Keep trapping him. Keep doubling him. Come on, Rick. 49 points, no assists, no rebounds. None of that zone shit tonight, Rick.
