Chapter 2: Why doesn't Mero want Giannis Antetokounmpo on the Knicks?
Got to put the starters back in. If we get into a situation where we don't have to do thatā I say we like I'm on the teamā then we're good. But Giannis, man, I don't know, dog. It just feels very, as a lifelong Knicks fan, I mean, it just feels very Nicky. You know what I'm saying? Like, yo, let's go get the mother that's selling mad jerseys and everything will be fine.
I just don't think there's anyone outside of New York who believes the Knicks are a championship team with a couple of bench pieces. And I'm fine with that. You know what I'm saying? Because nobody thought the Miami Heat was a championship team to go to the finals. You know what I mean? When they had that little run where Jimmy was doing his thing. Because they weren't a championship team.
They weren't.
Chapter 3: What are the implications of Giannis's potential trade for the Knicks?
You know what I'm saying? But they got there. They got there. Every year it's a team that's not supposed to get there that gets there. Everybody's saying it's the Knicks. Listen, until Jason Tatum comes back, the East belongs to the Knicks. I don't care what y'all say. I don't know how Mero feels about football. Are we still in the place, Pablo?
I've been saying this here for a few months now, that the biggest story in football, whenever the Chiefs lose, doesn't matter what else happened that weekend. It's the Chiefs losing. It's not the Chiefs winning. And it looks like... What is Mero doing?
What is that? That's the Shador. Oh, you're showing your watch. You know what I'm saying?
The Shador, you know what time it is. Losing to Tennessee at home time. Losing to Tennessee. But he's on the Browns. This is what everybody keeps saying. Like, yo, he lost, he lost, he lost. Bro, he plays for the motherfucking Browns. That's what they do. They lose. You know what I'm saying? Like, who, like, he did his thing.
I just tried to talk about the Chiefs and Mahomes, and you took me to Shador off of that football Sunday. Let's go. Let's get into it. Because that was a hell of a game.

Fraud. This is the Don Levitard Show with the Stugatz.
Jamel told us last week, Jamel told us that she will not criticize Shador Sanders because he represents something to black culture that is not going to be criticized. Jamel, Jamel, who can criticize? Jamel's like, nope, not going to say anything bad about what he represents as an avatar. If he plays like ass, I'd be like, he plays like ass. But I like that he's confident.
If you can play like ass and still maintain your confidence and bounce back and not be ass... That's the best thing you could be as an athlete, right? When you're watching football on Sunday, that's Shador's the one who's got your attention. There was a lot of bad football played yesterday. There were a lot of games I was not interested in. I'm a Giants fan. Washington, Minnesota, no thank you.
I don't understand how the Saints did what they did yesterday other than football happens to ruin Tampa's season. But are we still in a place, Pablo? I don't know how you watch football on Sundays when you're not doing daily shows anymore. Is it Chiefs losing is still the biggest story on Sundays?
Yes, because the season has been, like, generally speaking, like, mediocre. And the question is always, like, if you're to ask me to wager on who's going to win the Super Bowl, I think until last night, I would have said, give me the Chiefs. And now I'm watching Travis Kelsey drop passes. I'm watching Rasheed Rice drop passes.
I'm watching the team around him, as well as Mahomes himself, just not feel like, and I've held out. So much hope that Mahomes is this magician that by the end is gonna make the woman not be two severed pieces, but one human that's alive. And I'm like, I think your assistant's dead. That's my concern. And so the Chiefs, by the way, it's funny, just the spectacle of this too.
