Zaz
I guess that's on me. I put him up too early.
Jeremy
Ted Williams going to be stunned to realize the Red Sox have won several World Series.
Greg
Oh, yeah. Loser. Yeah, it's funny. Just found out he died in 2002, so I don't have to explain 911 to him. Ah, I think it's still my have to explain the Internet. I know the Internet was around and everything, but I still think Al Gore's
Zaz
Internet, which by the way, interesting that we call it an Al Gore rhythm, huh?
Jeremy
Never really makes you think that way. I'll never think of it that way again. Juju. Good to see you, Juju. I know you got a top five for us, right?
Greg
Wait, Juju, are you wearing a Stefan Marbury Timberwolves jersey?
Juju
You feel me? Tis the season. Wow, it's really representing. It's Stephon Marbury, but he got the same number as my Brother, this Jaden McDaniel. So you already know what time it is, man. Salute to the good guys. All right.
Greg
I'm so old, man. I was like, is that Stefan Marbury? Shut up.
Juju
Salute to stop Bar.
Jeremy
Juju, you got a top five to get us going here? What do you got for us, bro?
Juju
I got two top fives for you, you feel me? So I'm going to go through them a little fast. The first one, cuz. Joker, brother. Lame as hell. You can get the joker of the day. For real. For real, real quick. Nicola Yus. You, sir, are the joker of the day.
Greg
I. I didn't know what he you calling him brother or you saying Jokic's brother is lame as hell? Because that could be to put them
Juju
all in a box. Shake them up and put them up to Michael Jordan's rings. You did 6 to 1. But yes sir. Also Scott Foster for that BS call. Out of bounds on OG had an OBI.
Greg
Whenever the wrong foot.
Jeremy
You see this?
Greg
Yeah, he's looking at the wrong foot.
Juju
Yeah, exactly. But yeah, top five lamest. Unwritten rules, bro. Okay, number five, don't plant your flag on my field after. After y' all beat us.
Greg
It's a very college football thing. Right?
Juju
Exactly. Ain't now one of y'.
Zaz
All.
Juju
This ain't y' all feel in either. So this, this, this that big brother upstairs feel. Why you care so much? Number four, Toss back the other team home run. If I catch it. What do you mean? I've been waiting for this moment all my life. I finally caught one. Who cares if it's throw it back.
Greg
No throw it back.
Juju
They bring fake. They bring fake balls into the ballpark and they throw that onto the field and they keep the home run ball.
Jeremy
That is true. They do that.
Zaz
That's an insane move. Like whole like bringing a baseball for like seven years every game. Just in case.
Greg
That's nuts.
Juju
I didn't know that.
Jeremy
Roy's right.
Juju
I'll be damned if I go to the baseball field with a pocket full of baseballs. Just leave one.
Greg
No. What if you catch two?
Zaz
Roy?
Juju
Well then you give it to a
Greg
kid and what does he do? He. He's. Then he can throw it back like his fake.
Juju
In the words of Michael Jordan, f them kids don't bunt to break up my no hitter.
Zaz
Oh yeah.
Juju
Yes, yes, yes.
Zaz
It's such a good list from juju right here.
Juju
I'm so sorry. You got a good thing going on right now. How about this? You better stop it.
Jeremy
This one made me viscerally baseball purist.
Greg
Jeremy, you have a problem with that?
Zaz
Ah, this one I don't like it hit me.
Greg
It just. Just get a hit.
Zaz
It depends on how deep into the game you are. Right?
Jeremy
Like the game is close. It's okay if it's a seven run lead. You're a dickhead if you.
Zaz
Yeah, I think it's like. If we're talking about. It's the. It's the seventh inning. I think after the first two thirds of the game. I have an issue with. Even if it's. That's why nothing. I'm with Zaz on this.
Jeremy
No, if it's a one nothing game,
Zaz
we're having a separate conversation. If it really is. But also if it's a perfect game. Versus a no hitter. We're also having a different conversation.
Greg
10 perfect game. You wouldn't bunt, brother. We're trying to win the game.
Jeremy
You're wrong. They're trying to win the game.
Zaz
What do you play to do, Jeremy? I'd be mad.
Jeremy
Not.
Greg
Well, yeah, you should be. This is like. This is like the Nuggets announcers, like. Yeah, he doesn't respect you.
Zaz
Oh, God, I'd be so. Aw. I'd be so.
Jeremy
You're trying to win the game. Still. It's okay.
Zaz
I get it. I get it. And I'm sure the pitcher like himself would be okay with it ultimately. But as a fan, if I was watching my favorite pitcher throw a perfect game and in two outs in the seventh inning and nobody on, and a guy goes to lay down a bunt for a base hit and that's what breaks it up, I'd lose my mind.
Greg
Isn't one of the other things to say is that you're not supposed to mention a no hitter when it's happening.
Jeremy
Correct. Maybe ju's got that.
Greg
Don't steal. Hold on.
Zaz
Don't steal it.
Juju
I don't have that one.
Zaz
Okay. All right, cool.
Greg
So. So do the other team. Can they say he's got a no, no.
Jeremy
Oh, yeah. I do that all the time.
Zaz
Yeah, 100%.
Greg
Oh, my God. I wonder if he going to finish that. No, no.
Zaz
Yeah, you do that for sure.
Greg
Don't mess up his.
Zaz
No, no, I do that as a fan. If. If my team is being no hit in like the fifth inning, I'm like, hey, you go, he's got a no hitter. Talking about it with everybody.
Greg
You got to talk to. You got to talk to the teammates because then they'll mess up. It'll be in their head.
Jeremy
I bet the other team's announcers do it.
Zaz
Oh, 100.
Jeremy
Yeah, I'll bet they do.
Zaz
I think once they're through four again, it depends because it's like, I deal at first.
Greg
He's got it.
Juju
I would.
Jeremy
Let's hear what you got next, Juju.
Juju
Look, I don't give a damn if it's the bottom of the knife and we down 20, I'm bunting on your ass. Damn. Your perfect game.
Greg
That's a
Juju
fight. Number two, though, in this same vein. Just because you deem something happened that you don't like, you get to hit me with a 99 mile an hour fastball. What? Sir, Unwritten rule. Nah, bro, don't get me back another way. Don't hit me with the ball. Bro, get me back after the game.
Greg
That's assault, man.
Juju
Exactly. That's assault, brother.
Zaz
I actually agree with you.
Juju
Number one. And the number one man. Don't score on me if you up and. But your team has the ball at the end. Whatever Nicola Jokers did the other day to Jay McDaniel, I don't give a damn like Jada McDaniel. Say, man, stop me then. You don't like it. Stop me then, man. Cause I don't like you. How about that? And guess what? You're lame, bruh. Joker, you are the. He ran all the way down there just to not want no smoke.
Greg
No.
Jeremy
He ran all the way down there again to get punked again by Jada McDaniels.
Juju
Exactly.
Greg
Run the clip one more time because you'll see he gets hemmed up and he. And it's nobody around. It's just them. And he's like, oh, man, right here.
Juju
Oh.
Greg
But then when Rudy gets there, now all of a sudden, I'm aggressive again. Poor Rudy, man.
Jeremy
And Jaden was laughing in his face.
Greg
Why is Rudy always about to fall down? Got terrible balance.
Jeremy
So with that said, then, Juju, I know you got another top five for us.
Juju
Absolutely, man. I got a top five list of people who didn't want no smoke. Number five, the ref who Dan Hurley headbutted. That brother ain't want no smoke. He could have gave that man a technical vow, the game wasn't over. He was like, you got it, bro. That was awesome. Number four, the one, the LeBron. That one time when beef stew was on his ass.
Greg
Oh, man. When he's bleeding, he's running, running across the court, bro.
Juju
You the king. Salute you the king, bro. But that was a crazy situation. I don't know if I would have wanted any of that either, brother.
Greg
No, sir.
Juju
Number three, Gino Arma. After the game against South Carolina, he refuted a lot. After the game, he refuted everything. He refuted this, he refuted that, but he did not refute that. Don Staley said he would whoop his ass. Number two, Nicola Jokic the other day. He ain't want no smoke. We already went through it. And the number one guy who didn't want no smoke, the guy who walked out of the boxing ring as soon as it was like the bell, run for first round.
Jeremy
I like that guy. And he walked back that long ramp. I like that guy.
Greg
I. That's one of the funniest things I ever saw, man. Greg, do you know this? No, I didn't. It's A box. This is a few. Few years back. But like, they do the intros. The guys are. And then ding, ding, ding. And the one guy just says, you know what? Never mind. And he, what, gets out of the ring and just walks. Like Z said.
Juju
It's a.
Greg
That long walkway through the crowd. And it just kind of like his. His head slump just walks out like Charlie Brown.
Juju
Exactly.
Zaz
He get like paid once the bell rings or something. Like, was that a thing?
Jeremy
I feel like it's quite possible he didn't get paid. I mean, how are you sending that?
Zaz
I'm just wondering. Maybe that's where if the bell rings, you technically get paid.
Juju
I don't know.
Greg
Let me say this. If he did get paid, then my career as a professional boxer has begun. Just to show up and then actually get hit. I'll get paid to do that.
Jeremy
Juju. Let's give us the polls. What do we got today for polls?
Juju
Yes, sir. While I pull the pose up, I want to give out a couple awards right quick. The joke that deserved more laughs. Greg, Cody, push it. Good. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, that was a good one.
Zaz
That was going. Salt and pepper. Yeah, yeah, yeah. How about all of us? All of us, including juju for showing up to work today.
Juju
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jeremy
This crew had never worked together before.
Juju
Never, never. Had never chemicals. The Zaz is right award goes to Zaz man. About the celtics, bro. I'm a celtics fan. I'm. I don't like watching this man fade away three after fade away three. You didn't sound like it.
Greg
You didn't applaud that.
Jeremy
You don't have to applaud for yourself. You let others give it to you.
Juju
There you go. Right? Also, a. A joke of the day award goes to Amina Hassan on the nonchalance Cleveland cavalier situation.
Greg
I thought you said Joe Gurr of the day. I said what I do.
Juju
Good job. And last award, the Cedric entertainer impression of the day awards also goes to America.
Greg
Well, I gotta tell you, nominee.
Juju
Yeah. Here go the pose, man. Does everyone know that the red button is the panic button? 96 of the audience says yes, they do.
Jeremy
Yeah.
Zaz
I was more disputing just what you referred to. Like, if we say, what do you call it, the red button or the panic button? I think I would have won that.
Juju
But red button, play on. Do people still carry pocketbooks? 57 of the audience says no, they don't. Is who made it to salad the breakout star who made a decision? 80% of the audience says yes, it is. Wow. Who made it a salad. T shirts available right now on levatoraf.com support us. 15 bucks, too. It ain't 35. 40. They don't sell for 15 right now, guys. Very good deal. Exactly. Very good. Matter of fact. And the last poll. Does Jeremy look like he knows about that? Get back. 63 of the audience says no. And those are your posts.
Greg
Vindicated.
Jeremy
Good job, Juju.
Juju
Thank you.
Date: April 27, 2026
Setting: Elser Hotel, Downtown Miami
Hosts/Panelists: Dan Le Batard (not present on mic), Stugotz, Juju, Greg, Jeremy, Zaz, Roy
This postgame episode dives into the world of "unwritten rules" in sports, highlighting the panel's collective disdain and amusement for some of the most debated and, according to them, "dumbest" traditions that govern player behavior. The lively banter is centered around Juju's rapid-fire Top 5 lists: first, the silliest unwritten rules across sports, and then, the best moments of people who "didn’t want any smoke" (i.e., avoided confrontation or conflict). The conversation is peppered with personal anecdotes, irreverent takes, and the signature sarcasm and camaraderie that define the show.
5. "Don't plant your flag on my field after you beat us."
4. "Toss back the other team’s home run."
3. "Don't bunt to break up my no-hitter."
2. "If you break an unwritten rule, expect to get hit by a pitch."
1. "Don’t score on me if you’re already ahead late in the game."
5. The ref Dan Hurley headbutted
4. LeBron James during 'Beef Stew' incident
3. Geno Auriemma vs. Dawn Staley
2. Nikola Jokic vs. Jaden McDaniels
1. The boxer who walked out without fighting
Unfiltered, deeply irreverent, and high on group chemistry, this episode skewers long-standing traditions in sports, arguing that many "unwritten rules" are arbitrary or outright counterproductive. Juju’s lists drive the show, but it’s the back-and-forth, playful mocking, and personal admissions that bring out the comedy and relatability for listeners. The episode is perfect for fans who enjoy sports talk that refuses to take itself—or conventional wisdom—too seriously.
