That's right, it's Thursday Thunder, and it is brought to you by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Juju, what do we got?
Oh man, it is Super Bowl week, Daniel and Dano, you feel me? So I'm going straight to the game. We got a lot of things happening this week. But I'm going straight to the Super Bowl. First leg, we got Dee Jizzle, a.k.a. Dee Greasy, a.k.a. Dallas Goddard, for over 4.5 catches this Sunday against your Kansas City Chiefs. Second leg. Okay, cool. Second leg, I'm going with the Slim Reaper, a.k.a.
the Slimmer Reaper, a.k.a. Slimmer Ferdet, a.k.a. Skinny Batman, a.k.a. Devontae Smith for over 51.5 yards in the big game. You feel me?
So that's two overs. A couple of overs for the Eagles. Cutting it up.
You feel me? Third leg. Come on, man. I don't like to doubt people on these. I like to give folks confidence because I know they all watch this show and specifically this segment. Last leg. I'm going with Xavier Worthy for over 5.5 catches because they're going to be losing. Oh, wow. Is that a prediction?
Are we throwing a prediction on top of that?
That's my heart and dreams because it's, you know, we got a lot going on this year. We got planes falling out the sky. We got devastation hitting the world right now. So I feel like the chef's kiss for that devastation would be for Patrick Mahomes to get yet another win three in a row. No, sir. No, thank you. I'm going with my Eagles. Fly, Eagles, fly. You dig, Ski?
Juju, am I alone in thinking that Most of the country wants the Eagles to win. No. I'm not saying everybody. I'm saying if we took a litmus test, a poll of the nation.
I think the majority of people want neither to win. Well, I mean, that's not going to happen.
I mean, David Sampson, ladies and gentlemen, wet blanket award goes to him. Oh, yeah, we're doing awards. Please don't bring that energy to this as well.
I want that one today, Juju. So, as always, we steal a bit started by Dominique Foxworth, and we give ourselves awards in the postgame show.
I thought Roy was a pleasure to be with today, a pleasure to work with. He interjected at moments of the show that forwarded the show, didn't grind it to a halt at all. Thank you, David.
Hold on. Juju, hold on one minute.
I got to give David Sampson an award for the person who just started to compliment somebody but somehow made that compliment by the end sound kind of like an insult award.
Good job, David. David's got a lot of those, by the way.
He's got a whole trophy case of them. Can I give David another award? Uh-huh. He is the award for the least host, the least party host that I want to go to. I mean, your house. Well said. I know, I killed that one. Congratulations, congratulations. You throw a party, I already know I'm not going.
I'd like to give Israel Gutierrez the $2 fine award for saying that you can't be a hip-hop artist and have a southern accent whenever Andre 3000, Young Thug, Future...
Killer Mike, Ludacris, Quavo, Lil Wayne, 21 Savage, Pastor Troy, Bun B, Rest in Peace, Pimp C, Juvenile, Scarface, The Ghetto Boys, Big K.R.I.T., 2 Chainz, Rest in Peace, DJ Unc, Rest in Peace, Young Dolph, Rest in Peace, Charlie Lowe, Moneybagg Yo, Kevin Gates. I know this ain't the type of show we doing, but $2.
I just don't think of them as Southern accents. I just think of like super extreme Southern accents, but $2 will be paid. You're doubling down.
He doesn't see accents. I do want to piggyback on what Juju said. I want to give awards to many of those guys like Andre 3000. Oh, wait a sec. They already did. It's called Grammys. No. Woo! BET Awards. I'd like to give, speaking of the Grammys, I'd like to give our fake Grammy to Jeremy, who, on short notice, made a parody song about David Stallings.
Good job. So he's in a lane now where he's now going to have to do songs like once you start. Already got a text from Dan saying that I should be doing that even more often. Oh, so that's it now. That's great.
Hey, I think we can award to Jeremy for the got a text from Dan. Oh, there you go. Hey, good job. Text from Dan.
All right, yeah. I'd like to give Pat Riley the Great Guy and Business Before Pleasure Award for not sending Jimmy Butler to New Orleans like I would have sent his ass. Good job. There you go, Pat. Yeah.
That was Juju's take on Bob on my podcast. He said that if he was Pat Riley, he'd send Jimmy Butler to New Orleans just to prove a point. He'd take the worst deal ever just to prove a point.
I'm with you. I think he should have done that.
Get ready to learn Pelicanese, buddy.
Pelicanese, that's what he said. No, but it's Juju. I had him being sent to the Wizards. Yes, sir. I like that. I like where your head is at, Fox.
He's already won this award, but you know nothing better than winning it back-to-back. Executive Producer of the Day to Chris Cody.
I thought it was pretty shitty today, honestly.
It was not as good as Howard's bowling award.
Still the best EP of the week. Yep. After a hard bowling night. Yeah. He gave us the Joe Biden. He gave us the unexpected. You know what? I was great. Yeah.
Yeah. You know what?
Yeah. What was the other impression that you did that we were very impressed by? We're like, oh, that's pretty good. It was Trump. Yeah, Trump. No, I don't know. That was terrible.
I also want to give an award for also another $2 for everyone in the building for no one saying deadline day. Yeah, good job.
Good job. Still got some here. So, yeah, good job. I forgot about it, but yeah.
Well, that's true. That's an award that we all won.
I'd like to give an award to Ryan Cortez for the saddest Zoom background on planet Earth.
Good job. At least he showed up today.
Another award for David Samson.
Deadline day! Oh, man. The award for ultimate pecker checker.
Oh, yeah, yeah, pecker checker. Checking pecks. Also, Chris, you get a may not be there when you want them, but you dare right on time award.
Yeah. It was late today, though. I'm here when you need me. Today, it was a real laugh party, David. Laugh party? Yeah, laugh party, yeah.
I enjoyed it.
Dare I ask Juju what the audience thought today?
Hey, the audience, look, let's just say there are some days where we make the audience forget that how we are all, I want to dress it up. I don't want to say the things that, David Sampson had a rough day on the YouTube channel. That's what I'm saying. So I'm going to take this time, instead of digging into that, I'm going to send a salute to my brother and tell you some appreciation.
You came to Atlanta and you made me a part of your show. You shared the stage with me and you made me feel like a genuine brother. I thank you so much, David Sampson. Hats off to you. Thank you.
Hats off.
That made Juju feel like a genuine brother.
Hats off. I'm sorry that... that I had that impact on you. That's a fine memo. That's a fine memo.
I think we're probably done today, right? We're good.
One more thing. One more award. Award to Dan Lebitard for dressing like the furniture awards.
Yeah. You look like a couch. Yeah. Easy. Lazy boy. Lazy boy.
I'm going to end it with an award for Pablo. It's hard to steer this ship. And, man, you conducted, Pablo. You win the award for the best person to sit in Dan's chair who's not Dan, who's in this studio today.
Yeah, good job, Pablo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He talked the show. I'm not clapping.
What?
Not for that one. Oh. I mean, I don't look like the chair I'm sitting in, so, you know, it's hard. That's a start. It's a start. It's a good start. Hard bar to clear.
Are we done?
Yeah, we're done. Yeah, we're done.
We're done the award. Thanks, Juju.
I'll give David Mitchell the award for Condition of the Heat. Am I right?
