Next thing we are going to do, LeBron! We are here today. The test are LeBron, knowledge. We have several LeBron James-related trivia questions that Beasles has put together. There will be four opposite in every question. We've got to decide what answer you want to go with. We've got to see who puts together the most LeBron James correct answers. Wait?

LeBron! Got to meet the my ringtone, man. It's your alarm. That'd be a good alarm. That's terrifying. I've never oversleep. All right. First question.

What establishment was the location of LeBron and Savannah's very first date? See, the McDonald's are Outback, I think. I'm going to say McDonald's. It's certainly not Nobu. He's from Cleveland. McDonald's be funny. Outback, maybe he got a little fancy. He's already getting money in high school, you know?

You're right. He is getting money. He was six foot nine prodig. Okay. I think LeBron has a cheap gimmick, and he probably told the story as McDonald's. Whether it's true or not, I'm going to go McDonald's. I had McDonald's. The correct answer.

Allegedly, he could be lying about this too, is Outback Steakhouse. I knew, I think I knew that. I didn't know my gut. I think I remembered that story. I forget he had money back then.

I said one of my gut. But at the McDonald's thing, made too much sense for his gimmicks. I'm too easily influenced. I know. I think I remember him telling us. Yeah, I think I remember the Outback thing.

Yeah, I think I remember the Outback thing. All right. Next. Who was the teammate that recorded the assist on LeBron's first basket? Ooh, Ricky Davis, I think. I have no clue. I think, I think,

I think the Ricky Davis or Darius Miles. I'm going to say Darius Miles. We're at to look up the footage yesterday and you still have to zoom in. I was like, who is that? Yeah, I think it's Ricky Davis because he, because,

you're probably right. He came off of the screen. You've seen his first assist? His first. No, the teammate that. Oh, yeah.

The teammate that assisted. Oh, it was a jump shot, right? Yeah, it's Ricky Davis. Ricky Davis. Yeah, it was a jumper. He was coming off of there. Ricky Davis for screen.

Correct. Yeah, he gets Ricky Davis. Yeah, Dary's Miles wasn't point guard duties. It is Ricky Davis. Cool. Okay. Next up. In 2015, LeBron walked away from a guaranteed $15 million endorsement deal with McDonald's.

Easy. To invest heavily in which fast food casual. D. Blaze Pizza. It's Blaze Pizza. I know he wins Blaze Pizza. Pizza. He had to walk away from McDonald's.

Probably. Allegedly. $15 million endorsement deal. It's quite a lot to walk away from. Blaze Pizza is going bankrupt right now. Is it? It is. It wasn't a good deal.

They're closing shops left and right. Have you had Blaze Houston before? I think I had it one time At a one time Would never walk in there again Probably not either But go Blaze Pizza It is Blaze Pizza

Yeah I remember the marketing behind this The big push Oh LeBron James is a pizza spot T's mid My sister worked there Damn, does you like it? She liked the job Food was mid

Next What European sports franchises LeBron actually hold A real financial staking Liverpool What is AFC Richmond? I've never heard of that team before I don't know ball like that.

FC, Richmond is a fake team. It's like they got relegated or? No, he made it up. It's from Ted Lassau. That's funny. That one. Yeah.

I do think he's Liverpool FC. It is Liverpool. That's funny. LeBron was so ridiculously down in high school that he actually petitioned the NBA to let him do what? Force draft one of his high school teammates That would be some gall To be like I'm so good

I'm bringing my guys with me Give him an NBA contract Draft for Rich Paul Enter the NBA drafts High School Junior Play D league games while in high school Pick the team that drafted him I don't know about this one

I think it's either C or D I was thinking C or B B is impossible But I was thinking maybe he has some audacity He just asked for it I don't think anybody would ever say Yeah let me pick the team Yeah, that's nasty.

We haven't even ever heard that type of shit. Yeah, I'm saying. I mean, clearly they said no to all this. So Beeg, maybe he asked for it. And they were like, shut up. I'm going to say the most reasonable one. You probably asked for A. I'll go C.

It's probably C. I'm going to go B because that'd be very funny. But it's probably C. It is C. Yeah. That makes sense. That's logical. Like, I'm ahead of schedule.

You know, that's a good PR move. If you're out there as a most popular prospect, to know you're going to be told no, but to ask it and gets a new story out there that LeBron James wants to come in as a junior, good marketing. Ask David Stern. I'm going to pick the team.

Yeah, that's crazy. He killed. In 2003, when Davis Stern is at his peak. Yeah. Peaks. At his peak, asshole. 5049 to David Stern. Yeah.

He's not letting that go. Yeah. DP O.Y. D.P.O. David Stern. Next. What position did LeBron play in football when he played in high school? Wide receiver. Tied in.

Wait, was he? It is a Y. Wide receiver. He was 6'9. Demon running up that sideline. 50 touchdowns a year. He was Calvin Johnson with four more inches on him. Okay, okay, okay.

Five more inches on him. His wide receiver, and he also was all pro. Seven inches on him. Crazy. Next. Where did the chosen one moniker originally come from before he got it permanently inked? The cover Sports Illustrated, Savannah's nickname of Fortune Cookie.

That would be so great. His mom, Gloria. A, B, and C all kind of makes sense. B and C makes sense I feel like A is the answer D would be funny as fuck A fortune cookie I'm gonna go ahead and say

It's not B I don't think any mom is calling their kid The Chosen One No mom could be like that yeah But that verbiage they'll say like The Chosen One Yeah That feels very on the nose It feels lame to call your kid there

LeVar would do it LaVar is insane He's not he's not pressing in for anybody When you're says LeBron You can't be insane It's not disrespect to see LeVar is insane you said it in a disparaging way we're gonna proper LeVar

I have no idea because the cover of Sports Illustrated it can't be some fantastic name if you call your partner the chosen one I know that's SOD that's even worse than the mom I think it's the mom I think he's the mom I'm gonna say his mom said it

I'm gonna say hey I think he got from the Sports Illustrated cover I will believe that too I can't remember if it was already tatted before the Sports Illustrated cover so I'm gonna say his mom I'm just imagine like anyone

significant other column of the show. I'm like you. It's the egg for show. Why is my girlfriend glazing me? Why is my girlfriend glazing me? She thinks of the greatest. What's wrong with her, bro?

It's got to be it. Yes, it is. Okay, it makes sense. All right. Next up, next up. LeBron finally got ejected for the first time in his NBA career in November

2017 against the heat. was the referee that threw him out. Joey Crawford. Remember that? No. I'm going to say Tony Brothers. Oh, I'll go Scott Foster because everything Scott Foster does leads to people hating him. I'm going to think that LeBron is banded together with Chris Paul for your mutual hatred of Mr. Foster.

Watch it be Kane Fitzgerald. I don't remember what he looks like. Same. It is King Fitzgerald. Oh, I remember him. Oh, that's King Fitzgerald. I never knew his name. I've seen him a thousand times.

I never knew his name. There's just one referee I see at the games all the time. And I'm like, yo, you're the referee from 2K. Nice. He's like, yep. Next. What was LeBron's highest rated TV NBA finals game? Surely it's 2016 game seven.

But 2018 game won, a three p three in a row. 2013 games? Ooh. All of these that makes sense because 2011, that's when the NBA was really banding around the Hedels thing. Yeah. That viewership might have been crazy. You know what?

2011 game seven. TV viewership as an industry has been on the decline I bet it was the older has the highest viewership So you're saying 2011 D? Oh you're saying Wow D I'm gonna say 20

It's D or B I don't I'm not I would want to believe it's 2018 but it's not because I think that's when like The whole TV stuff We get in our macroeconomic understanding of the media industry here Exactly Yeah everybody was say it's either B or D 2018 everybody was tired of Cavs Warriors

Exactly so I don't think it's 208 A game one Game 1 Game one, probably that juice. People were still just upset that it was like, oh, here we go again, because they were going to get swept anyways. It was watered down too. They got eliminated in 2011 game six, right?

Yes. Okay, I think people got up to see that heat was get eliminated. It has to be D. Yeah, I think it's D. I'll go 2013 B. All right, you guys massively overthought this. It is 2016. Massive overthood.

Damn, we don't know shit. The first second, we said 2016 to game seven, and we convinced ourselves every reason it's not. Massive over. I wonder with the numbers, August. I feel like 2011 had to be close. 2016, when I looked, it was like 31 million viewers. I think the lowest one from this was, I think it was 2011 game six.

Damn. Whoa. Damn. No shit for real. Damn, we don't know anything. That's funny. Yeah. I'm going to have to look afterwards.

But, all right, this is the last question. What time did the decision air on ESPN? Had to be earlier the day they had, didn't they? It wasn't like a. Is it a Boys and Gold Club? Exactly. So there are kids outside. No.

but it was, it was, I'm going to say 8 p.m. Because they had an hour lead-in show going into the decision. The decision pre-game show. So I don't, so I don't think that they're going to, they're not going to put it at 6 p.m. Because what they, listen, you want to talk about all, all-time TV program. Okay.

6 p.m. is not going to happen. They're going to have the 6 p.m. sports center. That's like, that's law. Okay. So you have 6 p.m. sports center going into the hour-long NBA countdown. So that's going to take, from six to seven and then from seven to eight is going to be the thing so so six p.m. fourth center so i'm going to say eight p.m. eastern.

we're rolling with right man eight p.m eastern okay um i think it's i think the thinking was right nine p.m. eastern it was nine p.m eastern i got it damn bosauteer fake valer i believe you last time i believe you were they have they had before you probably were exactly right in the process It was just a week. It was just an hour later. Yeah. I never seen a LeBron trivia like this, man. I need to get back in the lap. 6 p.m.

Okay. That's the reason. Now I got to look at the 2011 ESPN programming. He was going off of Central Time. That's what it was. No. No, it's the 6 p.m. program because they do it 6 p.m. on Easton time zone. It's in Bristol.

I think it's a safe base for you. Should I give you an out. She didn't want to take it? It's okay.
