Howdy, folks. It's Mike Ryan. You know, the Levitard Show and Miller Lite go way back. Pretty much, I want to say like 95% of our existence, we've been partnered with Miller Lite, and we believe in Miller Lite. They believe in us. It's great to have a partner with a product you truly love. That's me with Miller Lite. I love Miller Lite, always have. In fact, I consider myself a bit of a Miller Time MVP. The friend who says they've got it, I'll pick the spot, I'll throw the cooler in the trunk, bring some Miller Lite, and suddenly what was supposed to be a couple of hours turns into a whole afternoon. That's me, the Miller Time MVP. And it's great for summer hangs. Cools the body down, that beautiful white can.
Not much better than an ice-cold Miller Lite because it's brewed for taste with simple ingredients, clean, refreshing, and easy to drink in the Miami heat. An all-American summer starts with an all-American beer, Miller Lite. Go to MillerLite.com to find delivery options near you, or you can pick up some Miller Lite pretty much anywhere they sell beer. It's Miller time. Celebrate responsibly. Miller Brewing Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 96 calories and 3.2 carbs per 12 ounces. Greg, there's a lot about the last few months that have rekindled all of those feelings from 2010 to 2014 when the heat, and Miami were fighting against the rest of the country. But this morning, surprising to me because LeBron's in Philadelphia and it happened a few days ago, this morning I walked into one of the great blessings from the last 16 years, which is Zazz and Mike Ryan clearly agitated by Bill Simmons.
I've missed that so much. It's been so long since we've really had the wonderful tensions of media guy said a thing about our team and our media. I was really mad yesterday. Now, I... I can probably get riled up again today because just hearing what I heard yesterday will likely get me really angry again. But I was mad yesterday. Really? I wasn't mad. No, I was mad. I wasn't mad. I sat back with a huge smile on my face when I heard this sound that will play in a little bit.
No, there was no smiling from me. Oh, I'm smiling. Like, man, we got him. What's Bill saying? What's he saying? We got him.
We'll play the sound in a little bit. But he was doing he can be a bit of an overgrown toddler. And so he wishes for LeBron to come to Miami so he doesn't appear afraid of Miami. But he's saying it because he's afraid of Miami, because he's got some sort of scars that it comes when it comes to however it is, the Miami experience, how how Boston, how he on behalf of the Boston media experiences us on behalf of the Miami media. He's deranged. He has HDS. The clip that we're going to play later is heat derangement syndrome. It's a deranged man.
Well, his Celtics have had such a good offseason, so you can imagine what kind of mood he's in. And look, I'm probably not the person to say this, all right, but Bill Simmons has been wrong about everything this summer.
You're not the person to say that's why I preface it because you've also you've also been wrong about everything. You've been equally wrong about everything this summer. But it is it's one thing, though, to be the the team that trades Jalen Brown. It's another to watch your rival take Giannis from you and then see the Jalen Brown turned into Philadelphia again. Another rival of yours turning that into LeBron James because your genius executive decided to trade Jalen Brown. It's just not something you see very often. It's rare enough for a team to trade a star to its rival. Like that by itself is rare enough. To make a trade of any kind. To make a trade of any kind. But to make a trade that nets your rival two superstars that makes their team more interesting than yours, that doesn't happen very often.
I heard it was the first time that two finals MVPs were gotten by the team. Woo! I'm with you. I'm with you. We got it.
Woo!
First time in history that two finals MVPs ended up on the same team in the same offseason. There you go. There you go.
