Speaker 3 (0:10) Against the Spread. Against the Spread. Against the Spread is presented by DraftKings Sports. DraftKings, the crown is yours. Trista. Speaker 2 (0:18) Minnesota goes to Chicago. And the one thing that we know that Ben Johnson's going to do is have these boys put up a ton of points. But they're also going to give a ton up as well. Going up against the Minnesota Vikings who just put up 39 against the Packers. Give me the over 48 and a half, Greg. Speaker 3 (0:35) Actually, I was going to pick the exact same game, but I have a little bit of a different take, if you don't mind. Go. Minnesota has won six straight games in Chicago. Even with Kyler Murray questionable, even if Carson Wentz starts, I like the Vikings a lot getting five and a half points. Ooh, Speaker 2 (0:56) Arch Manning made himself. a quite a bit of a mess this weekend after the whole Holly Roe fiasco. And he clearly was a joker. He clearly was a buffoon. He clearly has some of the worst decision making that we've seen. But Juju, does he deserve Joker of the Day status? Because to me, if he doesn't make the list, me and you are going to have some problems. Speaker 4 (1:30) Yes, yes, yes. He definitely deserves to be on the list. But the Joker of the day is so monumental, I don't know. So, yes, we're going to throw Arch into the nominations. I really want to throw the reporters from that room with Arch. And a bigger conversation about that because those supposed to be the adults. He did. When I was 22, I was making a mistake after mistake. So I blame them adults a little more. Also, James Franklin and that little jokerish tirade he had with the other reporter. Pretty jokerish. Hey, Michael. You feel me? And side note, that's how police talk to me. How James Franklin was talking to bruh, that's how our police talk to me. But there is only one Joker of the day, bruh. The Joker of the millennium, maybe. This award has been called the Mario Cristobal Joker of the day. Now I'm changing the title, taking it down. Speaker 4 (2:32) The Miami Herald. You no good, bean-eating, bell-hugging. My brother was enjoying his birthday. It his damn birthday. How many birthdays we got? We got 100 left or 50 left. I don't know how many we got. But damn it, that day is special. And I'll be damned if I got to listen to this shit on my damn birthday. You couldn't have hit me tomorrow. You couldn't hit me yesterday. You gonna hit me on my damn birthday? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Not all them years of service my big brother gave to y'all. Hell no. Not the way that he got the podcast going over here putting y'all name on the podcast with. God damn it. No, no, no, no, no, no. I know I've been hacked. I know Shams didn't tweet that. So for that, you guys are the jokers of the millennium. I don't give a damn about you. Get them out of here. Hell yeah, Juju. Speaker 2 (3:27) Thank you. Thank Speaker 4 (3:28) you, Juju. Speaker 3 (3:29) Are Speaker 2 (3:29) you going to be cryogenically frozen? I Speaker 3 (3:31) think I might be. Yeah, I'm thinking about it. It hasn't been announced yet. Speaker 2 (3:34) Is it 100 more birthdays? It Speaker 3 (3:35) hasn't been announced yet. A Speaker 2 (3:37) cryogenically frozen is crazy. What Sidney Sweeney decided to do after getting filleted on the internet is crazy. Speaker 1 (3:46) I'm fine
