at the end of every show that i want to do this week i want to give ourselves awards we did this last summer dominique inaugurated it juju was around for some of it juju remembers his game i hope you guys remember this game um chris do you remember how to play this game i do i'm just trying to i wish you would have said this before we started so i could have started thinking what the awards were going to be yeah so i want to i want to give an award to chris cody for being
The best executive producer of the week. Thank you.
The only one, but... You don't have to point that out.
That's not on the statue. You can just accept it. Who else wants to give an award?
I'd like to give an award to Jeremy for lasting the entire show without bringing up perhaps the juiciest Miami Heat rumor ever. Oh, are we talking about... It's not ever. Thank you, Jess, for knowing how to play the game. It's pretty juicy. It's not ever.
I want to give an award to Dan Lebitard for picking maybe the worst week to not be in Miami based on the previously mentioned rumor, which we're not saying.
Just some rumors. Dude, you know, there's so much stuff that's happening that I can just imagine Dan disintegrating under the stress of not being able to talk about it. Forget about this juicy rumor that we're not going to address right now. Do you know that Dennis Schroeder said that it's kind of like slavery? He compared players getting traded to slavery.
And as soon as I saw that headline, I swear to God.
Hold on. I'd like to give Amin El-Hassan the award for guy who got fooled by a fake headline on the internet. Was it? Good job, Amin.
Congrats. Oh, I got settled.
Yeah, you got fooled.
I'd like to give an award to American Airlines for having jets that go so fast we can hear them deep inside the Elser. Are we sure those are jets?
Juju, there have been sounds here in the air ducts that we're not sure what they are exactly. You have been spared that. Do you have an award you'd like to give us? Or yourself, honestly.
Not just an award for everybody being awesome. The awesome award. Everybody wins.
How about us?
That's a good one.
I have an award for Pablo for starting the show with an interesting and new take on the Luka Doncic trade. That's not sarcasm. It was good job. Good job.
I'd like to give an award for false corrections to Pablo Torre because this quote is according to NBC Sports Bay Area. It's a real quote. It's not central.
Good job, Pablo. I'd like to give an award to the guy who got betrayed by the video team or whatever the fuck just happened by getting in my ear with wrong information. Mally, classic Mally.
Mally took a huge shit earlier.
Okay, back to what you were saying, because I saw that quote too, and I thought it was real, and I was really embarrassed for 10 seconds, and now I'm unembarrassed. But I also thought, Dan, if he were here...
Dude, at least an hour and a half, right? At least an hour. All I can think of is Dan calling Elise, his assistant, and saying, get me on a flight back. Maybe that's him right now. I think he's still hungry.
That's just his stomach again. Juju, do you have any experience? You've stayed at the Elser a bunch of times with the vultures flying around. No.
I've been blessed to not see vultures on the balcony. You feel me? They always do put me up on the 1,000th floor. That is a fact. And the balconies are this narrow. So narrow.
So David is right. No room for a chair out there. Oh, this reminds me of an award I would like to give Jess. Juju and I can co-present this to Jess for being the true person that a vulture would probably fly away with if they were picking one of us to actually do it. Wow.
Although I am taller than 65 inches. By a lot? Yeah. If you're 65 inches, then yes.
Hey, Juju, what did the crowd in the YouTube chat think of the show today?
Ah, man, the crowd has always been the crowd, man. Salute to the audience, the wonderful audience. That's G-P-Z-B-O-Y, sir. Oh, keep going.
I was just afraid of what G-P-Z-O-Y was about to say.
He says, a tucked in polo shirt with shorts is wild. Please someone tell Samson. And so consider this your notification. Good award. Good award. The tucked in polo shirt is a wild award.
We need to give David an award.
I'm not award worthy.
I'll give him an award for only making the show awkward like twice.
Hey!
Your personal best.
Great show.
I'd like to give David Sampson the best beard award on the show.
Great beard. Thank you. I mean, compared to Amin, I feel like it's an easy one.
I show up every day. What's up? Consistency, that doesn't matter.
It's the whole lip and tooth and the way you have a few gray hairs scattered around. It's very tough for me to. Salt and pepper is a good thing. That's not salt and pepper. It's a lot of pepper. It's mostly pepper with like a kernel of salt.
Not delicious. El Lobo Mallow says, Samson looks like the manager for the towel inventory at your local water park. Oh, my God.
Salute. This is a compliment. I don't want to appear stuffy to anybody.
I'm going to clap it up for that.
How many? Two? Three? How many do you need? No, I'm good now. But the reason I tuck in. No, I meant towels. No. Do you know why you tuck in your shirt, Juju? You never tuck in?
Yes, sir, I tuck my shirts in, especially when I'm in professional environments. Right. This is a professional environment?
You're tucked in, Jessica.
This shirt only comes tucked. It's a bodysuit. It takes a very long time for me to pee now.
No wonder the break was so long. It was a good stream, too.
That was Mally. Also, happy Black History Month. The NFL is reportedly removing the in-racism logo from the Super Bowl end zone after the White House announced it that President Donald Trump will attend on Sunday.
Award to the NFL for solving racism. Yes. They did it.
Now, the NFL denied it, just so we're giving our facts straight. The NFL denied.
We'd like to award the NFL the least plausible denial award. It's unreal. Good job, NFL.
They said, oh, no, it had nothing to do with Trump becoming the first ever sitting president to attend a Super Bowl game, which he is. And then all of a sudden the end racism gets removed. And the NFL said, no, no, this was always the plan. Surely a coincidence.
I'd like to give David Sampson the isn't understanding the game entirely because we just gave an award for that. That was implied. Yeah, awards.
I'd like to also give an award to Amin Elhassan's family for understanding. You can't take those vows with you on the bus, so use them.
Good job. Five seconds to go. I mean, he's right. Just dribble the ball. Let him dribble the ball out. We're done.
Juju, was Asia Wilson a hard launch? That was like a medium soft launch, right? Yeah.
Right. And oh, my goodness. Those shoes are incredible. Salute to Asia Wilson for dropping those shoes. They're dropping this May. The pink Nikes. Oh, man, I was I'm overwhelmed because I think that those shoes are going to be just as popular as Sabrina UNESCO shoes, which are worn all over the NBA right now.
Well, which are like the like the Sabrina's or the Kobe's. Right. They got repackaged as the Sabrina's basically.
Yeah, they're awesome, bro. They fire.
This is Asia's, yeah.
This isn't the one that came out that she promoted yesterday.
I was going to say that's not the one.
The one that I saw. Award for the video team. Good job, video team.
Second best shoe possible. Good job, guys. There's only two options, 50-50. Am I right?
They're tired. Also, I'd like to award the Sam Bocelli Award to Jaguars for hiring Tony Bocelli as their new executive vice president. Wow. Good job, Jags.
I was worried about that award for the first couple syllables, and then I went with it.
You heard the same thing I heard. That's it.
I think I'd like to award all of us the We Made It to the End of the Show Award.
Yeah, how about us?
Hey, way to go, team. See you tomorrow, everyone. See you again tomorrow.
Kevin Durant?
