juju tossed me a stat of the day here the raven's defense has four sacks this season uh 39 year old calaisus campbell has as three sacks this season. The Ravens defense has been truly epically terrible. We're going to get to the useless sound montage in a second. We're going to get to against the spread in a second. But first, we have this breaking news from Jane Levy. We don't know where Jeremy slept last night.

And Jane Levy. That's a fine. Sorry, my bad. Yes, you're levying a fine. Jane Levy. That's my type of joke. Jane Levy is calling you a boy toy because you forgot to mention that you went to the Yankee Red Sox game and you forgot to plug her book,

Make Me Commissioner, I know what's wrong with baseball and how to fix it. Did she demand that the boy toy call her commish? No, but she did demand that I plug this book for everyone, which I am doing right now. So there was a means to an end, huh? Seemingly. No, I mean, look, I already bought the book myself. I also bought her Sandy Kofax book because I'm fascinated by Kofax,

and she wrote the book on Sandy Kofax. But I know we've had a lot of fun. The most fun experience to be at that baseball game for what ended up being a historic ninth inning. It wasn't the way I think anybody in that stadium really wanted it to go. But to be there for the Yankees to load the bases and ultimately not come through hanging out with Brian Ross, like a legendary journalist investigative journalist from NBC News

and ABC News. A David's brother. Levy, like, it was, it was really, like, a remarkable experience. Were there any, like, lulls in conversation? Was it constant chatter? Yeah, we were just talking about, we ended up in conversations about, like, middle relievers developing new pitches as Luke Weaver came in and struggled, and we talked about, you know, which pitches that we were seeing that we think maybe would be challenged in the future. Like, it was a baseball fan's baseball conversation.

Cody, what are you laughing about? I was eating it up. What are you laughing about, Zaslo? What are you guys doing? I can't repeat what was just said to me. Again? If it's a conversation about middle relievers, I want nothing to do with it. I'm sorry.

I'm confused. So she invited you under the condition of like plug my book and you did not plug the book? No, that wasn't why I was invited at the end of our conversation. It was, Jesus Christ. Against the spread. Buy Make Me Commissioner. Buy the book. Go buy it.

It's great. Jane is great. I love her. Did you call her today? Did she call you? Text her this morning. Oh, you didn't bother waiting a day? Wait two days? No? Right away. Before we get to against the spread, let's play, please.

The useless sound montage we have waited too long. Man, it's an honor to represent American football here in Dublin. Beautiful day in western New York. We're to God for the weather. First and foremost, all glory belongs to God. My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, just want to thank him for this victory, for us, keeping us safe for the most part. The winner of these games when we play them usually starts out fast. We started out fast in the past.

They started out fast today. Not big deal, you know, just keep that between us. Good to get a win. Brought on the team. Never ever give up. My gut was probably wrong a lot of the night. No, it was just a football game. I think that's just the best way to describe it.

In the grand scheme of things, man, you better be careful grade and wins. Those critical variables in football, you know, generally it's not that are under-emphasized. Great to get Chris back. His aunt died, and it was good to get him back here. I don't think you should be that sensitive about it, but it is what it is, not too worried about it. Now, I'm going to keep that between us. You know, it's a tie, and I really don't know what to say about that. The game and the work that you put into the game never lied to you. Kudos to T.A. and company, but also kudos to the men.

Try to go one and L. The standards are the standards. The identity is the identity, and it doesn't change for anybody. That's the only thing you can do when you're in a spot like this is just keep coming out, keep swinging. We've got to learn how to win. You know, this is year one of our program. You can't fight and get behind a eight ball against good teams and expect to win. We work on it.

We get better. Get back to work and regroup, rethink. Not blink when a lot of people are telling them to blink. Good things happen to those who just stay consistent and stay ready. You've got to feel the taste of it. Yeah, you just hope for there's no mechanical problems to slow the plane down. him taking off. When he scores zero points, it's not good enough. Look, it's good to get away. I'm happy for our players.

I'm happy for our coaches. They put a lot of time and effort and energy into us. I can just open my eyes and see an entire team and stadium and organization that doesn't have time for my feelings. Component of it being a great trip is doing the job, and thankfully we were able to do that. No, they're just going to keep that between us right now. That's just, that's it. Coach Parsosos used to put the mousetraps up everywhere. You'd come in on the next day if he thought it was one of those games, and there'd be thousands of them. that puts more pressure and needs more frustration than I do on where we're at.

We're in the Ultimate Parity League, and I think that's why we have such a good relationship with our fans, man, and we enjoy putting our talents and skills on display for them. But missing 56-yard, but that's 56 yards, you know, so we've gotten spoiled. The complimentary football today showed up, obviously making plays in three phases. It doesn't take much. You just tell them what's on your mind, and they already know what's up. He's been a stud, Nick. I mean, the guy, he's a grown, man. I know what you're doing there, Paul. I know what you're doing. I'm not going to answer that here right now.

Put it on the poll, please, Juju. Does anyone eat more frustration than Brian Callahan? I don't believe Dan Campbell when he says he had a coach put thousands of mouse traps around the locker room before a trap game. I don't believe that? Thousands of mouse traps. You think Parcells was walking around with a box full of mouse traps? Thousands?

Four big games and laying them out? I don't understand Sean and I were saying they have to learn how to win. Has no one on the team ever won a football game? Dave Wonstadt used to use lobster traps. More impressive than mousetraps. Yeah, that's how Wonstead evolved. Instead of just copycatting or stealing the idea of mouse traps, I'm going to do it South Florida style.

I'm going to see if Jimmy can lend me some of his lobster traps. Let's do against the spread, get to the polls, and get to Juju's analysis, withering criticism of my performance on today's show. against the spread against the spread Billy kicks off wait first against the spread is brought to you by draft kings draft kings the crown is yours

now go ahead all right I'm looking at the NFL slate this week and there's one game out there this dolphins versus the Panthers dolphins on the road favored by one and a half points it's juicy But I'm not going to go with that game. I'm going to stay away from that game. Glad you mentioned it.

I'm going to go with the Giants plus two and a half at the Saints. The Saints, they play the bills close, but they're not a good team. The Giants, they beat the Chargers, who we thought were a good team. Jackson Dart, I mean, is this a revelation? I don't know. I just have a feeling about this Giants team, so I'm going to take the Giants plus two and a half against the New Orleans. Truly crappy analysis. You have a feeling. Excellent.

Greg Cody, what's your pick? Miami Hurricanes minus four and a half in tally. Yes, please. I am all in on the Cains. Their past defense is much, much better equipped than the last season to stop the Seminoles. I like Miami by a least a touchdown. Homer Cody thinks it's going to be a blowout. Homer Cody thinks the UM is going to drag FSU. Are you covering the game?

At least a touchdown. Yes, I will be writing off that game. You're making the drive? No, I'm not. Can you... Pick a game that you're covering? I'm running because of the government shutdown. There's still no roads or highways.

You thought he was Herbie and he had to sit it out? Why are you such a homer? Do you ever pick against the local teams? Like, ever? I don't have... I picked the dolphins to lose to the bills. He thought the Marlins would be bad this year. Well...

You picked the dolphins to lose to the bills when they were at 12 and a... half point under. Right. I did pick them to cover, which they did. Thank you. Is it a homer pick? Yeah. Against the spread. I picked them to cover. Stop being a homer, go. Uh, Juju, what do you have for us today before we get to the polls here? Uh, what did you think of today's show? Where was I especially crappy today? Uh, the first spot you was crappy. I pull teeth and nails every show trying to get you out of top of the W. Something. I awesome happens in the w let's bring in jessica smitana to talk about it on my way salute to jessica

she's an expert also but i would love to being in those conversations it's my life over here no it's right here no it's right here it's right here it's where we're here don't go there we're right here right now tell us what you thought about nefisa callier uh what she had to say and also tell us what you think about these uh wmba finals i should tell people ali upa is something he's doing with Trista. They've got great chemistry and their coverage of the league is exceptional. So tell us what you got. Now, I

care about the show and I understand the fans of the show have an attention span for the W. And we wrote out the red carpet for my sister, Jessica. We got into it. So all I would say is salute to head coach Stephanie White of the Indiana fever, Natasha Howard, Leah Boston, Odyssey

Sims, Kelsey Mitchell, Lexi Ho, Brianna Turner, the whole squad, Shea Petty, they show so much resilience going up against that AIS team short-handed. Nothing but applause for that team. I hope they keep the coach because that would be an abomination to get rid of her after this performance. And yeah, the finals should be awesome. I told you midway through the season whenever Asia got her hand hurt, you asked me,

are the Aces in trouble? I told you, but they're going to be a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-you-feet. You're wearing the Lamar Jackson gear. What did you think? We talked a lot, Lamar Jackson. today what were your thoughts there oh yeah i think that y'all was spot on uh and nick was spot on and mike was spot on at first it was so much coming from that side you know as a black man you can't help but see and feel that side that there has been an overcorrection on my brother my brother got

to win some of these big games man like so that fumble in in buffalo last last year uh that it was snowing and it was rough conditions but at the same time you out there you got to get it done so you spot on with Lamar also with the chiefs when it comes to the chiefs beating these teams i think that the buffalo bills my my team i think our defense is so ass that it is way it's above and beyond like y'all said when josh makes it he makes it because he has to put the superman cape on they lose by one point because the defense can't stop a cold like last year patrick mahone was getting rid of that ball to elam side instantly we traded elm to the cowboys and now to everybody to wonder, what's wrong with the Cowboys defense? It's Kyre Elam. Back to you. Okay. That's all that's

wrong with the Cowboys Defense. Do you have any updates for us here on Greg Cody and his abominable position of we've got too many statues in sports? Oh, yeah. This isn't a sports statue, but I got to ask my brother his opinion on this statue. They recently unveiled a Tina Turner statue, my brother. Oh, it's wrong. It is a Rough. Is it really? I haven't seen it. It's rock.

Oh, my God. Video team, if you got it, do my favorite show it to him. But yeah, I got to ask you. Oh. Is Tina Turner worth the statue, in your opinion, Greg? Yes. Yes. If it's a music statue, I'm going to put.

Oh, my goodness. It's really rough. Yeah. Yeah. I don't see Ike. I don't see Ike anywhere there, which is probably just as well. Why would we want Ike there? What does that have to do with I?

Where did you bring it? What do you need to hide there for? I can Tina Turner. He was not a nice man. Rolling down the river. That's why I'm making a joke about it. It's just as well that he's not there. It's not a laughing matter, Greg.

I know. It really isn't. That's too much hair. She had a lot of hair, but that's over the top, literally and figuratively. She actually didn't have a lot of hair. Thank you. Real ones? No.

Speaking of that, I got to ask my brother, Mike, did you see Tony Romo over the weekend? Yeah. Dude, what's going on with this day? And also some other stuff going on. It's more the face for me. Oh, my goodness. I instantly thought of Mike. I'm like, uh-uh.

I got to show this to Mike because he knows what's going on here. Mike, are you making a ruling as the world's, certainly America's foremost authority, sports expert on calling people out when they're doing things with their face, hair, teeth that is false. Postiso. Yeah. What are you ruling here? Dan, he went for the hat trick.

He did stuff with a hair, face, and teeth. Damn. It's giving hair, face, ass. Yeah, and also, makeup on the hands, too. Damn. That is the back of the hands. He does have something on the back of the hands there as well. Tony Romo.

There's nothing wrong with that. Dan, also, Dan, this is the only correction I have for you from the show today. His mama call him Castellanos. I'm going to call him Costellanos. I don't think his mother does call him Castellanos. I don't think his mother does call him Castellanos. Let's get her on. No, he says...

This is a Matt Diaz situation where he's like, it's Dias. I'm like, no, brother, it ain't. You'll find out. She's wrong to. No, it's... I don't know that his mother calls him Castellanos. I think he's been Americanized and he insists on making it Costalanos. I think she calls him Castellanos.

Why isn't it his choice? Why didn't she call by his first name? Yeah. Because the double L, you have to roll it. If you're Hispanic, that's why. If I want to pronounce my name Greg Cott, I'm Greg Cod. Your name actually is pronounced Cote, but you say Cody. I know, so it's Cody.

Who owns my name? By Julio Jones. I own my name. I'm still reeling from your need to throw Ike Turner into a Tina Turner statue situation. He said it was glad that Ike wasn't there. Yeah, he did. Thank you, Billy. This could also be a Cameron Ward situation in which, look, there's only one Casiano in sports,

and we don't want our name associated with that. The boy toy over there is overcorrecting now because Jane Levy wants her book sold and the boy toy does what he's told. Please buy this book because Jane is wonderful and invited me to a baseball game under no false pretenses. Why is my dad holding up his book? I mean, we're all promoting books here all of a sudden. Let's update the polls at Levitard show. What do you have today, Juju?

Oh my goodness. Do you trust your airline pilot less if he or she talks with a Lisp? Come on, man. Lisp Lives Matter. 56% of the audience says, yes, they trust them less. Attention passengers. People are lying. They feel bad.

That's crazy. On your left, you'll see the grand tangy. Also, I'm reminded, there was nothing more on brand for Zaslo today for him to not understand how oil and money works. Bravo, brother. You should have heard during the break. Zaz was in here wondering if the Saudis just have a bank account

that's just endless numbers. Watching a coaching symposium there. I mean, you're telling me the Saudis they never call their accountant to make sure they can afford it? Oh, for a sudden there's a sheet going, we're overdrawn. We've got to withdraw that offer to Brady.

Do you crush Casadillas? 90% of the audience says, yes, you do. And the last poll Should we stop having sporting events in Long Island Sorry guys 81% of the audience says yes we should And those are your pose Jeremy did you find out for me

The question I was asking about how the results came back On the poll from yesterday Yes 367% of the audience voted yes What was the question You had asked the 17 to 3 Is it insurmountable for Penn State to overcome a 17 to 3 since 19 whatever. Yeah, 800% of the audience voted, yeah.

That joke would have hit harder if you read it for the... If he had just let the joke sit for the second time this show. You're in the AI thing? Yeah, I was trying. I work hard. I flew in. I woke up at 4 a.m. to be back here. In our defense, we didn't want you here.

Why do I... All right. We didn't ask for this either. She wore your ass out, man. You were useless today. Amen. Man.
