He says, speaking of prank calls, good time to remind the audience that you once published Lou Holtz's phone number in print. Imagine if you did that now. Look at Roy with his mouth hanging open, shocked.

You did that? I did it in the school newspaper, the Miami Hurricane. It was just his office number. Oh, well. It wasn't his home number. It was just the Notre Dame campus number. Okay, you can get away with that. I don't know, could you?

Yeah, not the home number. It's public knowledge, right? Yeah, I mean, they do it for congresspeople, right? The guy's in work for Taylor Lorenz. That is correct. We will get to Juju, as I mentioned, in a second, but I just wanted to show you the late pope's accommodations, the way that the power of the pope surrounded himself

with the barest of amenities. Now put on the screen what some other people were showing, which is Joel Osteen's property. He's got that preacher money, boy. He does have, and I did see people who were in support of Osteen say, yeah, go ahead and put up a photo of the Vatican while you're at it. I was gonna say, does the Pope own the Vatican?

Is that his spread where he's like, yeah, this is what I got, it's a whole country, my bad. It's not a mansion, it's a country. His sleeping arrangements, though. Meager, yes. Meager arrangements. Meager arrangements. We seek meager arrangements.

Cody, do you have anything pope-related that you'd like to add to the conversation? I'm telling you what, the odds are out, and everybody knows that Pietro Perilin is the betting favorite to be the next pope at plus 200. But I have to tell you, my sources within the Vatican, there's a groundswell. This is my sources, so I can't quote anybody, but there's an apparent groundswell of cardinal

support for, let me see, I want to make sure I get this right, Matteo Zuppi at plus 600 is looking like a good bet right now to me you know it's a crowded rate it's a crowded field you know you want to bet the field if you can get that bet Piero Battista pizza by la is another good guy to look at so minor penalty two minutes for adding nothing Minor penalty two minutes for adding nothing Thank You Billy get out And not making that name up get out pizza by la get out

Cardinal support We're not done. You're done. Go to the penalty box get out of here. You know he's not going to the penalty box, right? No, it's not a couch. He's just milling about like it's it's are we done. It's the end of a Clippers Nuggets game The end of the Clippers Nuggets game off mic just shrugging their shoulders going, are we done yet? What happened? Juju, what do you have for us in the way of critique and updates on what it is that we're doing here today? Number one, that is why we love you, Greg Cody.

Oh my goodness. Salute to Greg Cody. That's a great new drop too, by the way. He didn't add anything. He didn't, he added nothing. He just kept yammering. Oh my goodness. I want to add to the famous numbers, Pantheon, number 42 in baseball.

I see that 42, I think, on one person. That's the big dog, Jackie Robinson. You feel me? Also, 21 on defense in football. I mean, I know it's Freudian right now, but I think of Deion, you dig it? But yeah, also, congratulations to Xavier Restrepo, you dig, it shows that perseverance

and you know what I mean, sometimes the connection, it actually works out, man. Him and Kam Ward get to continue their relationship and their career together in Tennessee. I about my you fans we all happy and proud of my boys Xavier and Stripple for getting an opportunity. His 40 time and his scouting combine was awful so he will now try and make it in the league with Kam Ward to see if that connection can be something that is special what do you have for us in the way of the discussion taking place this weekend with

a lot of people, because Ron McGill has to come on and answer this question later this week. One hundred men versus a gorilla. See, I got the opinion of, like I said, I'm a zigger in a world full of zagers. Like, brothers, I think if we have a a sign up sheet and we get a hundred brothers that are committed to this mission U-20 you do this U-20 we're only gouging eyes U-20 attack the manhood like we we gonna get this job done you feel me I know that we think of Kong we think of of all the big. Oh, we're not talking about Kong

We're talking about a nine to five gorilla got a 401k. He do we just popping up on them We gonna clean that boy up. You feel me? What's our thing? A lot of men yes, Dan a lot of men What if the gorilla grabs somebody by the ankles? That's a meager man by the ankles and then uses him as a bat For other people as they're trying to come in to gouge the eyes and hit the manhood I do think that we will have a few problems on our hands once the other 97 men see the first three who have been torn in half

And whatever my plan was with the other 19 guys go after his junk when I see somebody whose torso has been removed from the lower half of their body, I think my plan might fall apart. But a hundred men is a lot of men. We'll get a definitive answer from Ron McGill. Any other draft information, any other football stuff that you think we need to get to that we didn't get to today? We didn't even get to Roy, we didn't even get to the Edmonton Oilers and the fact that before he left for the penalty

box for adding nothing, Greg Cody was saying, hey my McDavid overrated things, still looking good. Well it's a brand new series now, the series is tied at two so yeah it's still in play but I think the Kings will still win the series. What does that mean it's still in play? It's still in play because they losing this first round. It's basically 0-0 now. It's not in play he's a great player. Leon Dreisaito and them boys. Yeah Leon Dreisaito was the hero in overtime last night. You did. On the on the Shadour front feel me? I feel like y'all said everything. You dig?

Ellie came on with his opinions. You guys shared a bunch of rational realizations. You feel me? I just got one video to throw at two. This video will speak for me. I don't have too much to put on it besides this video. Salute to y'all. Well, you know what I think happens sometimes?

I don't have any evidence that it's happening now. Yes. But people start talking. And behind the scenes they create a reputation for somebody that may not even be what their reputation is. Yeah. But everybody starts agreeing that this guy can't do this or he can't do that.

And everybody starts believing that. Right. You feel me? That's pretty much how it goes, dawg. We be debating all this stuff. We don't know what the hell happened in these rooms. We taking the word for it from somebody, you dig? I'm just happy for my brother to get a chance in the NFL to prove these folks wrong. Now we can't look at the past no more. The draft happened now onwards and upwards.

And he got a high-ass Dylan Gabriel to compete with, Joe Flacco, now onwards and upwards. And he got a high ass Dylan Gabriel to compete with, Joe Flacco, Deshaun Watson. Like it's a good opportunity in that room if you really about it and make it your mission to be the number one quarterback. I wouldn't choose any other team to get that chance for, you feel me? Kenny Pickett is also in that room as well.

And I didn't know before Poznanski said it earlier that they had a quarterback in that room that they cannot wave contract't know before Poznanski said it earlier that they had a quarterback in that room that they cannot wave contractually that they have to keep. I didn't know there was such a thing as a quarterback in that room with those five names. Those all felt like names that you could wave but evidently there's one that can't be waved and I don't I don't only the reason that I don't think it's a good opportunity isn't just because it's a Brown it's because you've got five other people taking snaps there and this isn't who the coach wanted like

this is clearly not the guy the coach wanted and that becomes a hard to ask if a guy's not gonna get his reps there yeah but I think with Chidur Sanders he's gonna get some benefit of doubt for having fallen so far relative to what people thought just a month before the draft. I think if he shines absolutely kills it during mini camp prior to training camp. I think all of a sudden he's getting a lot of snaps along with the other players. I just don't think he's gonna get that many snaps with five quarterbacks all having to get the snaps. I know, but when you look at that,

that's the same mentality y'all got with these gorillas. I'm telling you, go for the junk, go for the eye gouges and you will find yourself QB one. And then they ripped the head off of the one guy and then he's like, Oh wow, his brain's flattening. He's throwing some human head at me. Just bowling balled up. I was not expecting, I was not expecting for you to take Tony's head and throw it at me.

Like he and I got in, we had a plan, and it's like Tony, you and me will go for the junk, but now it's his screaming head being thrown at me by a gorilla, now what do I do? Touche. Polz, please, at Levitard Show, what do we have to update here? If your name is Jax, are you more likely to get into trouble?

97% of the audience says yes, you are. Damn it, Atlanta Falcons, it's always y'all. Goodness gracious. Do you trust anyone that scrapes all of the cheese off of their pizza? 96% of the audience says no they do not. That is Mel Kuiper Jr. scrapes all of the cheese off of his pizza. Do you guys agree with me that and this is not an indictment of Mel Kuiper Jr. himself but that the people of the industry where they make their money with the meat market of projecting young players

That that is an unusual group of people. Do you agree with that greg if you're a mel keiper? Oh hell yes that the people who the the people who do this for a living where all they do is the projection Of these things it's a mindset that is a little different than the average mindset in a sports media career. I think it's absolutely true. I mean these nuts are literally watching film as if they're a coach. They're watching film, they're analyzing film. I can imagine that in the buildup to the draft, Mel Capra Jr. is probably talking to 15 or 20 sources a day, as is Diana Rusini, but at least she doesn't do a mock draft but yeah I think it's a crazy man's profession I really do.

Can we say that McShea is closer to normal than most of these prognosticators? Perhaps but still closer to abnormal than normal. Like Greg Cody does mock drafts closer to normal but The Greg Cody show featuring Greg Cody with this week with Stu gots. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Check it out Appreciate that damn right and you know it When you think of the number seven who do you think of first John Elway or Michael Vick? That's a big one. Yeah, 61% of the audience says Michael Vick.

Wow, recency bias. It's just young people on the internet. John Elway at this point might as well be that T-Rex in terms of being a dinosaur. His teeth look like it. Oh, damn. Whoa, what are we doing? What happened there? No. teeth look like it oh damn what are we doing if the Browns had drafted Tom

Brady would he have immediately gone to work at Starbucks 94% of the audience says yes he would have that's a good poll questions I want to say right can you be considered great if can you be considered great at sports if your name is Eugene? 85% of the audience says, no, you cannot. Eugene Robinson? Mercury Morris? Mercury Morris? Pretty good player.

Eugenio? Swiris? Yeah. I got this question from my brother Billy. Which big weekend for FIU baseball last weekend Neither here nor Dan. That's right, pause up G.G. Norris Yes, sir. I do. Is it a thin line between fashion and slob? 80% of the audience says yes, it is. That's not true in any way

Dan, that's just not true. You straddle the line. You could be quite fashionable. You just, you haven't crossed that line yet. I'm a slob. I know, but you're right there. No, I'm not. You could be right there. I will never be right there.

You could be though. Because it's not a fine line. Oh, it's a fine line. It's a gulf. It's a gulf between fashionable and slob. No, I think that it also, in Juju, like you can attest to this, right? A lot of it is also just like your personality.

It's your confidence, right? Like you can dress that way, but can attest to this, right? A lot of it is also just your personality. It's your confidence, right? You can dress that way, but if you had the confidence, it makes what you're wearing fashionable. I think it's that you have this, and you're like, I look like a Slav. It's like, no, own it. And then people are like, you know what? I wanna dress like you.

I had this argument in a locker room with Dion Sandberg. Well, I mean, come on, what are you doing there? Like, you're bringing a knife to a gunfight. That's crazy. Why would you have that argument about your fashion versus Deion Sanders? That's insane. Because, like you, he said to me,

no, you could wear this mustard-colored suit. You could. In attitude, and I'm like, Deion, I could not. I would not be able. But because of that, because of that right there, you're the one limiting yourself, Dan Leventhal. If you put on Dion, you know what? You like to dress up.

You should come as Dion one day this week, and you could see that you would actually pull it off. Who knew, me and Dion went in the same. I have, no, you're right, Greg, I could not. You would be laughed at. That's right. That is right, I know that. I don't know, have confidence.

Billy thinks that I have the keys to my own prison. No, this is the prison. I've never had any keys. I got no keys. I don't know where the locksmith is. I don't know who makes the keys. And it is not my attitude that will bring me the keys. I cannot wear Dion's mustard colored suit.

Confidence is key, Dan. Last poll, are we a country full of haters? 98% of the audience says yes we are and those are your polls. Thank you Choo Choo, good talking to you. 2% there. God bless America, a country full of haters. Get Elway's teeth off the screen!
