That's right. It's Thursday Thunder, and it's brought to you by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Juju, what do we got today?
Today we are traveling to the association, ladies and gentlemen, the association. And I'm going to start off with my brother from USC, Isaiah Collier. You dig me? He's going to get 7.5 points tonight. Above that, you dig, we're going to go over 7.5 for Isaiah Collier of the Utah Jazz tonight, ladies and gentlemen. Second leg, we're going to go with Danny Adria.
You feel me from the blazing hot Portland Trail Blazers right now. They are hot. They are hot. Tom Haberstroh. I don't know if you guys are paying attention, but those brothers are getting it done. I think my boy Denny will get over 16.5 points tonight, John John. And the last leg, we're going to go with Franz Wagner from that same game, you feel me, of your Orlando Magic.
Over 23.5 points tonight, ladies and gentlemen. We're going up. Say that name again. Franz Wagner. You feel me? Not to be confused with Hans Wagner. You dig me?
Thank you, Juju. Let's check in here real quick with my father for just a second because my father has been in the grazing area. Papi, what are you doing out there? Take me through some of the things that you've snacked on out there.
Well, I don't know. I had something here that was chocolate... Chocolate type of bread, I guess. That was very good. Very good, you know. I also was looking at the fruit snacks. That's excellent, too. Very good choice. Very good choice.
Sugary. Those are those fruit gummies over there? What else did you have? I think I saw you hitting some cashews.
i had some cashews too uh you you you had a good eye good eye and i'm looking at the big spread here and uh it's very tempting you know i gotta stay away from this stuff it's not good for you dad you say this all the time chris cody said during the show distracted me during a segment by saying your dad's eating my lunch well you know cody's a tough act to follow he's uh
It's quite a bit, too, you know? So I'm trying to keep up with him. What can I tell you?
Hey, there's the secret of Billy Gilt. Dad, tell Billy that... Yeah, Billy's always making a run for it, too, you know? I don't know why you had that to say, but okay. Can you get Billy on and just ask him why it is that he was so secretive about his FIU baseball job and this trip that he's taking tomorrow secretly?
Oh, Billy, why were you so secret about that FIU job you had there? Baseball and the trip, huh?
You keep your cards close to the vest, Bobby. You know how it goes.
Yeah, that's what the Godfather says and knows. Keep your card close to the vest so you never know what you're going to get, right? Don't let people know your next move. There you have it. He's talking like an executive now. He's talking like you, Dan. Dan's a suit now, Papi. I know that. I know that. He didn't learn that from me. It probably was from his mother.
Bobby, tell Billy to tell you about whatever he's doing. He's leaving the state tomorrow to celebrate himself in a very unique way. Tell him to tell you about it.
Oh, yeah, you're leaving the state to celebrate yourself in a very unique way? Really? That sounds intriguing to me. You want to come? No, no, no, I'm too old for that.
What is it, Billy? What are you doing?
What are you doing, Billy? Me? I'm getting on a bird. We're flying up to Georgia. Bird?
You better be careful with the bird.
Dad, we don't need that.
Dad, we don't need that. Dad, we don't need any of that. Back to juju. Dad, all right, back to Juju. Thank you, everybody. We're going to leave the kitchen now. Good executive producing, Chris. We should have never left Juju in the first place, truth be told. Thank you, Billy, for nothing, for just unending nothing. Juju, what was that play for the Orlando Magic again?
Franz Wagner. You dig me? We're back. Also, is nifty an old person's word from the polls today? You dig me? 87% of the audience says yes, it is. Back to you, Dano.
That's it. That's a good poll to update. Is that all we need for the updated polls? Or do you have any other criticism from today's show?
Meadowlark schedules their meetings during the shows these days, so I haven't had a lot of time to digest the polls today, unfortunately. But I will be back in full effect Monday morning.
Okay, very good. We look forward to seeing you. Thank you, Juju. I feel like we've crashed your segment by just not doing the polls with him and putting him in meetings instead of, you know...
Wow.
Harsh.
Yeah.
I appreciate you doing that on behalf of the company. I don't think it's necessary for you to fall on the sword that way, but thank you for doing it, Juju, and thank you for updating the one poll, the one nifty poll. Did we ever ask Juju about the big trade in the WNBA?
Yes, we did yesterday. Yeah, we got to it, man. I told them yesterday, dog. It made me so happy that Atlanta is being put back on the platform, dog, for the stardom. Like, you can have little kids come to the game, and the wins and losses won't be as important as they get to see a superstar in Brittany Griner. It's like every game will be just as exciting for the children. So I'm so happy.
I'm on cloud nine. Juju goes to a lot of Atlanta Dream Games. I know. We talked about it yesterday.
Check out yesterday's post-game show. I was doing a meeting during the show.
Okay.
Thank you, guys. I appreciate it. Yes, an executive meeting that I, the suit, have put everybody in. Thank you, Juju. Good talking to you. Thank you, guys.
