How does Chris feel about Erling Haaland's attractiveness?
You are listening to the Dan Levatar Show in partnership with the DraftKings Sports app. Now live in all 50 states.
This segment is presented by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Now, the last time I made picks on a segment for the World Cup, we cashed two out of the three. So I went over to the DraftKings Sports app, which is now available in all 50 states. And the market price I'm getting in our sunshine state of Florida is... is Pedro Neto for Portugal. When that dude is dialed in, when he is fully committed to playing really hard for Portugal, he gets on the score sheet. He's a big game player, I think.
What incident happened with Australian fans at Walmart?
Pedro Neto is plus 567 to score. What a match we have at 3 p.m. between Portugal and Spain. And in the nightcap, another immense match. I like the market price on Pulisic to score or assist. Minus 104. Those are the picks. Again, DraftKings.
Jeremy, give me some information, please, on things that Belgium is famous for, because what Zaslow did while derisively yelling at Belgium for complaining about the suspension of a suspension, he said, go to the locker room and make some waffles. And so I want some other famous things.
What hints did Giannis Antetokounmpo give about the LeBron sweepstakes?
I think French fries are eaten in Belgium in a way that's unusual. Don't they do mayonnaise with French fries there?
Yeah, they do. This is similar to like in Amsterdam. You can get a cone of waffles and they'll put mayo on top of that. So they fry them once and then they fry them again. That's the big thing is they fry them twice. You got to make sure they're fried twice. If not, they're not. It's called Belgian French fries.
What memorable sports numbers are discussed in the episode?
It's called the Belgian dip.
You know about that mussels from Brussels? Jean-Claude Van Damme.
A couple of things I want to talk to you guys about here because it is the biggest game in more than 20 years. Biggest game in 20 years. The United States is favored to win tonight, and I find myself disappointed with the following before I get to the United States game, okay? The game that we're going to get is England-Norway. In terms of cultural feel... Little different than Mexico-Brazil. The fan bases are wildly different.
How do the crew members rank the top sports numbers?
Erling Haaland is a delight to watch. He scored like nine goals in a game as a teenager. He's absurd. He's so good. But he's just ridiculous in terms of how fast he is at that size. Now, Mike Ryan was saying before the show, and this is nonsense, he's like, this guy's been timed as having Tyreek Hill speed. I do not believe that it's 6'5". This guy with blonde hair who Chris can't decide whether he's impossibly good-looking or impossibly odd-looking.
Just interesting. I can't stop looking at him.
What are the cultural differences between England and Norway fan bases?
That's all I know. I think I'm attracted to him.
Yeah, a little different because he doesn't have to wear some pads on him that might slow him down. But his top end speed, I think from this World Cup, would have registered the fourth highest top end speed in the NFL.
He's amazing to watch. He is 6'5". He is so damn Nordic. He's defending his ass off, too.
It's where his eyebrows should be that I just can't stop looking at.
So, put it on the poll, at Levitard Show, Erling Haaland, great-looking or odd-looking, or both?
What are the expectations for the U.S. soccer team in the World Cup?
You're allowed to choose both because he is basically leaking testosterone. I'm surprised people aren't slipping in the fumes behind him because he is giving off a whole lot of speed and masculinity.
He's such a curiosity. Let's be real. Looks a little strange. Plays... unbelievably appealing football because his speed, his aerial ability, the fact that he's gigantic, you just don't see all of those physical traits all put together, especially with that kind of skill where he can score. score with either foot, score aerially, where he can just out-masculine you, and he's got the technical ability to out-finesse you or just pull away. He is just such an unbelievable player. And again, I am not used to seeing him track back as far as he is.
How does the episode conclude with reflections on sports records?
He has had clearances off the goal line. He is defending and playing with such pride right now for Norway. That jawline, the hair.
He makes me want to be a better man.
Where are you on the differences between the fan bases?
