We've got some polls to get to. Juju would like to speculate recklessly.
We've got a top five list to get to as well.

But would you like to introduce, Greg Cody, would you like to help us introduce Juju's player of the day?

So, no, you don't want to do it, okay?

Now it's time for the player of the day.

Do the intro for it. Now it's time for.

Oh, I do the big broadcast voice. Now it's time for Juju's player of the game.
Of the day.

We'll work on this game. No, we'll not work on this part.
Now

we'll just strip him of the responsibility.

It's a failure. We've deduced it's a failure, and it's not one of those failures that is camouflaged.
It's a learning. It's just a failure.

Time out for Juju's player of the day. We don't have any music, but we're going to find out who it is.

Congratulations, Greg. That is a great example of you petering out toward the end of the show.

Who is the player of the day, Juju? Yes, sir, man. Happy to be here.
Happy holidays, everybody. But yesterday during the 49ers game, my boy Brock Purdy got beside himself, man.

He pumped, faked the ball in the defender's face, then ran out of bounds. But after the game, he was like, what was I thinking there? I'm so sorry.
I apologize.

And I would like to normalize apologizing because people don't do that no more. People will be like, I misspoke, and they'll just still hang on to the misstep, the misspeak for some reason.

No, admit you was wrong, and my brother did that. So salute to Brock Purdy for apologizing yesterday.
That is the only thing about that 49ers game we've talked about.

We didn't talk at all about the Bears game. There was a play in that game.
I don't know if you guys saw it. It wasn't among my listed plays that no one is talking about.

But Jerry Judy just had a ball ripped from him in the end zone for an interception. And the Bears are better at turning over people than anybody in the league.

29 times they have done that this season. Juju, what do you have for us in terms of the top five things in sports you want out of your life?

What is the triggering of this list what caused uh you to start thinking about this

yes sir man yesterday i was watching the games man it was just a lot a lot jumping off the screen man but before i say this list i brought up brock purdy apologizing and and having his accountability because i want to have some too i'm my behind i had the right and the nerve to put up dan was wrong hoodies when you've been telling us all year about these damn chiefs so i gotta admit that i was wrong by saying dan was right You feel me?

Come on, man.

Accountability. That is not going to be a shirt that sells at LebatardAF.com.
Dan was right. Although I am going to have Valerie buy me one for Christmas.
Thank you.

But yeah, I was watching the games yesterday. And so I was like, you know what? I need to come up with a little list for stuff I don't want to see no more in the NFL.
Number five, OLI,

the flopping, man. The quarterback's flopping.

is that number five or OLI those are two different things OLI is not number five that's just OLI

look at there accountability opportunity again I misspoke ladies and gentlemen I messed it up that's on me that was the OLI for short the OLI number five taunting flags in the NFL

come on man we playing this grueling sport my job is to hit him over there my job is to end his lights right now and I can't even fist pump the wrong way. Come on, man.

Meanwhile, LeBron James gets to spart. This is Sparta screaming Luke Cornette's face for 12 seconds.
Like, make it make sense. He's so right about that.

LeBron was able to get away with all of that just because he's LeBron, right? There's no other player in the league. There's not a player in the history of the league who would be allowed to do that.

I mean, Dan, he manhandled the referee last night. Got a tangle foul, is it? Part of it is that Dylan Brooks is a nobody.
He's got no credential to be the guy who's playing this role against LeBron.

I don't know if he's a nobody. He's a good player.
I think he's a nobody. Let me just say this.
Let me just say this. Dylan Brooks has made the same number of NBA All-Star teams as I have.

Sure, that's valid. Okay.
If Dylan Brooks walked into the studio right now, would you be able to tell it was him? Yes.

Yeah, I think so. He's not a nobody, though, Greg.
He's not a nobody. He is relatively speaking.
Well, everybody is. I mean, to LeBron James, everybody is.
Well, you can talk about it.

Who's not messy?

I'm talking about a player of some stature who can be on that level with LeBron James in that kind of a relationship, in that kind of a contentious relationship. He scores like 20 points a game.

He's a good player. He's averaging 22 points a game.
As far as I'm concerned, unless I'm wrong, he has never averaged 20 points a game, ever. Not his best season.
Unless he's wrong.

Unless he's wrong, as far as he's concerned. This would be the first season he averaged.
He's a qualifier either.

Okay, fine. That's the ultimate argument, Ender.
That sounds good. You got us there.

I ain't wrong.

You are, though. Number four.

the home team's not wearing white come on

i'm sorry

i think they need to bring it to the nfl because i'm i'm just sick of it i know i might be on my own here no i agree wholeheartedly juju this is a great take

let's get some uniformity across the league number three the new kickoff rules

i agree i like them like I like them like y'all said earlier, bro. Like, it just takes the drama out.
It put more importance into the kickoff than the touchdown that was just scored.

Like, come on, brothers, like, at least let's put this thing at the 25 or the 20.

The wrong flag before this, offsides on the extra point. You in field goal range, so I don't like it.
Let's get rid of it. I think you should get the ball at the one.

What are you doing here? Yeah. You're a sucker.
Yeah, let's go. Admit you cried.
Admit you cried. I did not cry.
You got emotional.

Admit you were quoted in that awful announcing article about local broadcasts. I will not confirm or deny.
Number two, put it on the poll as well, Jujor at Labatar Show.

Do you like the new kickoff rules? Yes or no? We're getting a lot of kickoff returns that are decent and fun and exciting. Turpin had one yesterday that almost went for 45 yards.

It's like just a regular play.

Yeah, but it's still

a bit, I don't know.

I'm frowning upon it. I'm not saying it's bad.
I'm with you, Jesus. I'm just frowning upon it.
I'm with you. I think inside a minute, you should get to all the one-yard line.
Inside a minute.

Yeah. That's right.

Number two is so bad. I got to bring it back to the NBA.
The NBA pro step, bro. Like, uh-uh.

What are we doing?

It's a travel, ladies and gentlemen. It's five steps, six steps these days, plus a jump back.
I don't like it at all. Get it out of my sport.
Someone with the guts to say it. Number one.

And number one, replay assist.

Slippers. I thought it was supposed to

making the game better. So the first drive down the field, the Patriots, clearly he dropped the ball.
No, replay assistance in Sakakis making coffee, I guess.

But whenever it's somebody on the Buffalo Bills squad, replay assist jumps straight in and said, no, incomplete pass, save your challenge, Vrabel.

Very slippery slope of you just, they just get to decide when the

referees and the slippers are. Well,

let me ask you guys this question because McDermott didn't end up suffering this because he ended up winning the game and Vrabel is viewed as a master tactician but I was wondering this when it happened to McDermott if the only time a coach is going to throw the flag is when he's got the video support what are you asking for leadership from the coach like on questionable stuff that looks suspicious when a guy is making a great catch and you're looking and you're waiting and the patriots are rushing up to the line and the coach is just sitting there somebody give me video what's the point of having the coach in a leadership position if he's just going to wait for someone to tell him, hey, we've got video support of this?

Doesn't on occasion, if you see the Patriots are rushing to the line, shouldn't you just throw the flag out there because it's a giant play?

I'm asking, seriously, here, isn't that what you want from your leadership? Or you just want him to wait and be told when it is that video supports his decision making? I got an easier solution.

Since it's the first half, go ahead and burn a timeout. Just burn the timeout.
It's the first half timeout. It's not as important as you would think the second half timeout.

And let the eye in the sky look it over. Exactly.
You feel me? Come on. I'll burn that first timeout rather than burning that challenge.

What do we have for reckless speculation? You're going to have to give me the imaging here, Chris, so that we can not be irresponsible.

Time to throw away all journalistic credibility and get reckless. Here is something we like to call reckless speculation.

You're good.

The referees

had Cody Parkinson on their fantasy teams. I don't think you can say that.
Wow.

That's too rough. That's a very deep lead, though.
He's a playoff time.

He's playoff time.

He's got a lot of targets. I mean,

Cody Parkinson.

Did he have two touchdowns yesterday?

I mean, America knows he has one,

but the stat book says he has two. And come on, like y'all said earlier, he was down at maybe the two-yard line, let alone the one and a half-yard line.
So, yeah, I see you referees, allegedly.

I don't think you can do that. I think that's irresponsible.
It's a bridge too far. Let's update the polls at Levittard Show.
What do you have for us in the way of updates here, Juju?

Did you foresee a circumstance where the Dolphins season would last longer than the Chiefs season?

89% of the audience says no, they did not. It's weird.

Right. Changing of the golf.

Do you love it when the sports announcer yells, holy guacamole?

72% of the audience says, yes, they do.

Does anyone care about that Saints Carolina result yesterday? Because that's a horrible loss for Carolina. Everything about it is horrible, including a late hit that put the Saints in position to win.

Did it surprise you that the Carolina Panthers would screw up? It didn't because their season was over after they beat the Dolphins, as I said.

Oh, sorry. I lost my time, my place in the polls.
But while I found it, I just want to send another shout out to, because I spent like Zaz Friday night, I was glued in to the Unda taker. You feel me?

And I was glued into the front time and what was taking place. And brother,

hats off, congratulations. Great post-game speeches from the owners, let alone the passion that Manu showed at that post-game service as well.

And the Unda come on there spraying champagne man no better deserving champions than the ones we're looking at right there mike I heard my dog Glenn Rice was there

yeah if you would have told us when we were kids Glenn Rice would be congratulating us on our championship he was for sure frustrated with our we had such a big crowd there that we were like blocking his people had to tell us like come on guys like because like he was sitting in the middle of the two ownership groups and ours was piling over there were multiple times where he had a red not Glenn Rice Glenn Rice's person was like can you guys block you're blocking Glenn Rice's view.

We had like 30 people up there, it was insane. What a night,

and what emotion as well for the other squad.

I felt bad because the last competitors, the last two people on the other squad, every time they missed a point, one of their players was so dejected and he was just screaming in the top of his lungs.

Ah!

Neither here nor there. It's 12 and a half times bigger than the actual human being, too big for a statue.

74% of the audience says, says yes it is too big yeah well

does an excited Fernando Mendoza sound like Jeremy looks

92% of the audience says yes it does wow

that's true I can't deny it

is Josh Pate too young to have birdies talking to him in his ear he tweeted out as soon as it was 100% no 100% no but 78% of the audience says, yes, he is too young to be using that phrase. Wow.

And last poll is Desmond Bain on a villainous run of pervading shenanigans.

88% of the audience says yes, and those are your posts. Juju, thank you.
Good talking to you. We'll talk to you again tomorrow.
Yes, sir. Anyway, God bless you, babe, and enjoy Chinooka.
